Officially known as operations officers, they play a crucial role in national security. The reality of their work differs from the romanticized version portrayed by Hollywood, however. The caliber of person required for acceptance into this elite group reflects the demands of its mission.1. Examine the minimum requirements. To join the National Clandestine Service arm of the CIA, you must be a U. S. citizen. Operations officers must be at least 25 years old and not over age 35 to qualify for the 18-month training program. Applicants who are 21 to 25 years of age attend a professional trainee program to gain experience until they are eligible for clandestine training. The CIA asks prospects to consider whether they have the integrity needed to deal with sensitive national intelligence before applying.2."

An Intelligence Analyst scans applicable information sources (depending on required issue or topic) and compiles briefings and/or reports to leadership. Analysts may be assigned longer-term strategic projects or daily data mining tasks. Intelligence Analysts who focus on the daily briefings conduct searches for raw data on an assigned topic, sift through the information to determine importance, and consolidate the information into a report to be disseminated to leadership. Strategic Intelligence Analysts typically can have projects lasting a couple of weeks to several months. Strategic projects require coordination with other departments, agencies, non-IC entities, and nongovernment agencies and organizations. Strategic Intelligence Analysts need to have the ability to keep concurrent projects and be willing to make multiple updates and corrections to reports based on feedback prior to publication. Intelligence Analysts should be ready to provide any required clarification on one project and then quickly jump into researching and writing on another project."

The architects of the National Security Act of 1947 would be greatly surprised by today's neglect of strategic intelligence in the Intelligence Community. This year marks the 60th anniversary of the National Security Act of 1947. So many of our most prominent government institutions were created by this act--the National Security Council (NSC), the Armed Forces as a joint establishment, the US Air Force, and, of course, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). As a \"\"living\"\" document, the act has outlasted the Cold War, for which it was devised, and much more. By the 1980s the act's architects had passed away. Their thoroughness was such, however, that amendments have not radically altered what they essentially put in place. One relatively recent change, the Goldwater-Nichols Act of 1986, in addition to its impact on the interrelationships of the service arms, notably also mandated the creation of an annual National Security Strategy, a document produced by the president and reported annually to the Congress. The original architects, with World War II in recent memory, knew very well the importance of giving commanders enough authority, and they likewise knew the importance of strategy. By 1947 George Kennan had wired his now famous Long Telegram."

Answered May 7, 2015 · Author has 168 answers and 299.3k answer views Originally Answered: Is an IQ of 122 good? It's not bad, 122, but what IQ scale was used? What was the standard deviation, the SD, of the scale? Good intelligence tests, scientifically constructed ones, all try to measure the same thing, general intelligence, the g -factor, but as with height or distance, intelligence can be measured in several units. If talking about a person's height, you can usually deduce the unit used from the figure, for instance if I tell you that I'm 180 tall, you can deduce that I mean 180 centimeters, because neither 180 meters, nor 180 feet or 180 niches, would be a plausible height for a person of my species. IQ is much trickier, in that the three scales are close together (the ratio between centimeters and inches is 2.5, whereas the ratio between the two most commonly used IQ scales is 1.07) and are all based on an average of 100 (whereas the basis for height, or indeed any distance, is zero, the minimum possible distance between two points in space). The two most common scales use an SD of 15 and 16, respectively, so that a score of 115 on the one is the same as a score of 116 on the other. The difference between those two are so small that you can ignore them. The problem is the 3rd scale, the Cattell scale, having an SD of 24, so that on that a score of 124 is the same as a score of 116 and 115, respectively, on the two other scales."

"text": "\"Focus on the interactions that are important to customers—and on the way frontline employees handle those interactions. In recent years, mature companies with far-flung networks of frontline sales staff—banks, retailers, airlines, and incumbent telecom providers, for example—have devoted a great deal of money and effort to retaining their current customers. As many academic studies have noted, the costs of doing so tend to be much lower than those of acquiring new ones. The success of this strategy ultimately depends on expanding the breadth and depth of customer relationships and on translating the resulting loyalty into higher sales of goods and services, as well as a healthier bottom line. We believe that many businesses are falling short. Although companies are investing record amounts of money in traditional loyalty programs, in customer-relationship-management (CRM) technology, and in general service-quality improvements, most of these initiatives end in disappointment. According to Forrester research, only 10 percent of business and IT executives surveyed strongly agreed that business results anticipated from implementing CRM were met or exceeded. 1What's regularly missing, in our experience, is the spark between the customer and frontline staff members—the spark that helps transform wary or skeptical people into strong and committed brand followers. That spark and the emotionally driven behavior that creates it explain how great customer service companies earn trust and loyalty during \"\"moments of truth\"\": those few interactions (for instance, a lost credit card, a canceled flight, a damaged piece of clothing, or investment advice) when customers invest a high amount of emotional energy in the outcome. Superb handling of these moments requires an instinctive frontline response that puts the customer's emotional needs ahead of the company's and the employee's agendas."

"text": "How to Become an Occupational Therapy Assistant Written by Beatrice Harrison Date August 14, 2014Tweet Occupational therapy assistants work closely with occupational therapists, helping them treat patients through physical rehabilitation programs. To become an occupational therapy assistant, some training and even certification is needed for those hoping to take in the best occupational therapy assistant salaries. The aging of the baby boomer population in the U. S. means increasing numbers of elderly people in need of assistance to maintain their independence and ability to function on a daily basis. This, along with the needs of the developmentally disabled and injured workers learning to compensate for loss of mobility in order to gain independence, has created a high demand for the skilled certified occupational therapy assistant who is trained to help people improve their quality of life. There are many similarities between occupational therapy (OT) and physical therapy (PT). However, the main difference is that OT focuses on improving skills for daily living, and includes the use of adaptive tools to allow a patient to work and live independently, whereas PT focuses almost exclusively on treating and preventing injury. What does an occupational therapy assistant do? Occupational therapy assistants work closely with occupational therapists and other healthcare providers to assist patients with rehabilitation to improve the performance of daily activities so they may regain their independence. OT assistants are employed in a variety of settings including home health care, hospitals, nursing care facilities, and occupational therapy private practices. Some occupational therapy assistants work in facilities that focus on one aspect of recovery and rehabilitation, such as sports medicine clinics, but most work in general practices that work with patients with physical limitations, injuries, diminished mental capacity, or developmental impairments."

The fundamental purpose of occupational therapy is to develop and maintain a person's capacity, throughout life, to perform day-to-day tasks and roles essential to productive living, including self-care, daily living, leisure and work. Occupational Therapists work with people with a range of conditions, including those who have physical disabilities, mental or social problems either from birth or as the result of accident, illness or ageing.

"text": "\"What is an Occupational Therapist? Occupational therapists work with patients to build or restore their abilities to perform the daily tasks of life. Indeed, occupational therapy can look very different depending on what sorts of issues the patient is dealing with, whether mental, physical, emotional or developmental. After a thorough assessment of a patient, the OT will then create a plan and work toward helping that patient meet certain goals, whether in eating and bathing to operating a computer and maintaining a budget. Their work also includes the keeping of meticulous records on the patient's progress. Occupational therapists work in a number of diverse environments, such as hospitals, rehabilitation centers, schools, small medical offices and clients' homes. They also work in policy and administration, as well as research and academia. When Samia Rafeedie was an undergrad at The Ohio State University, she sought out the help of an academic advisor.

We thought it would be helpful for you if we could break down the exact steps you need to take in order to do that and what you can expect for one. We reached out for advice from licensed OT, Sarah Tucker, who’s the OTA Program Director for Brown Mackie College in Birmingham, AL and a board member of her state licensing board. She said “the first step is to get in your higher education and graduate from an accredited OT school.” Next she goes on to say is, “you’ll have to take the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT). Upon passing the NBCOT, you’ll need to apply for licensure within your state.” To get a better understanding of each step, we broke down each one into more detail below. Step 1: Earn a Associate’s or Bachelor’s Degree Earning an associate’s degree is the first step toward becoming a successful occupational therapy assistant (OTA). There are about 175 accredited programs approved by the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) for an associate degree.

Find out exactly what you need to do to become a vet, including education and licensing requirements, but first see what characteristics will help make you successful in this occupation.01 Do You Have What It Takes to Be a Veterinarian?•••To work in this occupation, you must have a strong aptitude for science, since your training will consist mostly of coursework in this subject. If science isn't your strength, you can still find a career working with animals if that is what you desire, but it will have to be in another occupation. In addition to scientific aptitude, there are other qualities, know as soft skills, you must have. Aside from the obvious—compassion, sensitivity to others' feelings and a love of animals—you must have very good listening, speaking, critical thinking and problem solving skills. You must possess the ability to reason, meaning that you have to be able to draw conclusions by piecing together strands of information that may not seem related to one another.02 Required Education Aspiring veterinarians must earn a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree, abbreviated as either DVM or VMD. This is a four year program, that usually, but not necessarily, follows first earning a bachelor's degree. What can you expect to study in vet school? Your coursework will probably include the following: Gross Anatomy Animal Health and Disease Veterinary Practice Parasitology Radiology Pharmacology Food Animal Medicine Veterinary Physiology Animal Behavior Ophthalmology All DVM and VMD students also receive clinical training as part of their education."

Some bitches will whelp (deliver their puppies) anywhere from day 59 to day 63. As the owner, you will make no changes to her diet for the first 5 weeks. Often, in the 3rd week after mating, she will go off her food for about 10 days. You will notice that her vulva - the area around her vagina, did not return to the normal small size it was before mating, but looks rather enlarged. There is normally no discharge during a pregnancy. If you do see a discharge, then take her to the Veterinarian.

More than one pet owner has found themselves driving home, inquiring of the windshield how much of what they just paid is going to line their veterinarian’s pockets. The truth is that although the average salary for a veterinarian is strong (somewhere between the 80 thand 90 th percentile of annual salaries in the United States, depending upon the number of years the veterinarian has in the field), their expenses can be steep, and those expenses can linger for years. What is the Average Salary of a Veterinarian? Dr. Michael Dicks, director of the veterinary economics division at the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), said that new graduates from veterinary school often face drastically different financial futures, depending upon where they went to school, and whether they had to shoulder the cost themselves. As is the case with undergraduate programs, students going to veterinary school in the state where they live will pay less than those who do so out of state. Dicks said there are some state programs that students can apply for that will make up the difference.

They assume that keeping a company's books and preparing its financial statements and tax reports are all part of bookkeeping. Accountants do not share their view. Others see bookkeeping as limited to recording transactions in journals or daybooks and then posting the amounts into accounts in ledgers. After the amounts are posted, the bookkeeping has ended and an accountant with a college degree takes over. The accountant will make adjusting entries and then prepare the financial statements and other reports. The past distinctions between bookkeeping and accounting have become blurred with the use of computers and accounting software. For example, a person with little bookkeeping training can use the accounting software to record vendor invoices, prepare sales invoices, etc. and the software will update the accounts in the general ledger automatically. Once the format of the financial statements has been established, the software will be able to generate the financial statements with the click of a button."

With a high school diploma or a two-year associate degree earned at a community or technical college, you could find employment as an accounting clerk. An associate degree could also land you a job as a bookkeeper for a local business. To be an accountant, however, you will need a minimum of a four-year bachelor's (or baccalaureate) degree in accounting. With this bachelor's degree, you will have more job opportunities open to you and will likely earn twice the salary of a person with an associate degree. The bachelor's degree in accounting includes about 36 credits of difficult accounting courses as well as another 20 credits in business courses. If you want to become a certified public accountant, you will need to pass the Uniform CPA Examination, (the \"\"CPA Exam\"\"). Before you are approved to sit for the exam, however, you will need to earn a 150-credit degree as required by your state board of accountancy. You should be aware, however, that this is a challenging goal. Relatively few individuals complete the 150-credit degree program, and, of those who do, less than half pass the CPA Exam."

"text": "How much to budget for a Chartered Accountant salary Posted On January 24, 2014Engaging the services of a full time Chartered Accountant (CA) is an expensive yet worthwhile process for any company. CA’s are forward thinkers and as a result of their training and academic background, they have a grasp of business that truly marks them as unique in the marketplace which is why it makes sense to budget to include a chartered accountant salary in your business plan. They work at some of the highest levels in business as Chief Financial Officers (CFO’s), Financial Directors (FD’s) and senior Financial Managers (FM’s). Due to their exceptional knowledge of the financial landscape and their level of experience, a chartered accountant salary package is a significant cost to any company. In South Africa a chartered accountant salary can range from R70 000 to R140 000 per month: Position Full Time monthly cost Part-time monthly cost (based on 3 days a week)CFO R 110 000 to R 140 000 R 80 000 to R 100 000Financial Director (FD) R 90 000 to R 120 000 R 65 000 to R 90 000Financial Manager (FM) R 70 000 to R 100 000 R 50 000 to R 60 000The high cost of employing these financial experts is prohibitive for many small to medium enterprise and entrepreneurial ventures, even though they are the businesses that would benefit most from a qualified and experienced CA. However, the landscape is changing and many companies are engaging the services of CA’s on a part-time, interim or project basis. The concept is similar to that of fractional ownership where you only pay for the time you use, not a full time salary for your chartered accountant. If a company only needs the services of a CA three days a week, then they should only pay for three days a week. What is the difference between a bookkeeper and an accountant? The terms “bookkeeper” and “accountant” can be interchanged to a degree."

As with many businesses, customers may have difficulty judging whether they have received the most skilled efforts for their money. This publication should help customers objectively look at the service they are buying to determine its merit. Organization of Pest Control Companies Pest control companies (Table 1) are operated by people who usually have been assigned to specific responsibilities within a firm. The general categories for personnel in a pest control firm are: business license holder, manager, certified operator, salesmen, and service technicians. Small firms may have one person performing all these functions. The business license holder is the person who is licensed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS), Bureau of Entomology, to operate a pest control business."

What Is a Quality Assurance Manager? When a product is made, a quality assurance manager is responsible for ensuring that there are no defects. Their primary tasks are to ensure that products are safe and follow the product specifications and that only quality products are made available to consumers. They may be involved with inspecting food, automobiles, toys, electronic devices, clothes and any other product. Quality assurance managers begin as inspectors and, after acquiring years of experience, may advance to the role of a manager. They are responsible for supervising inspectors and may also hire and train new inspectors. According the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) as of 2014, 66% of qualify control inspectors worked in manufacturing, which suggests a similar percentage of quality assurance managers also work in manufacturing."

"text": "\"Tweet What Does it Mean to Study Systems Engineering? Systems engineering grew out of a need for specialized engineering disciplines to be able to work together. They focus on making different components, produced by specialty engineers, work as a cohesive and efficient system. Systems engineers also repair and improve upon existing systems as new technologies emerge. A college degree in systems engineering provides the necessary skills needed to interact with professionals engaged in a broad field of disciplines. Systems engineers must think holistically, taking into account every aspect of a project, including the costs, environmental concerns, timeframes, and life expectancy of equipment. The demand for systems engineers is on the rise, as all kinds of systems become increasingly complex and companies' needs cannot be met by engineers concentrating in a specific discipline, such as electronics, manufacturing, or computers. The increasingly global economy also has stimulated the need for systems engineers, as foreign and domestic platforms are often incompatible. Bringing together engineers, businessmen, and employees from all parts of the globe and all walks of life is central to a career in systems engineering. Communication and mediation skills are a necessity in the field, as is the need to think of the big picture, instead of getting caught up in the details."

An associate is a 2-year college degree offered at most community colleges, technical colleges, vocational schools, and some 4-year universities. An associate degree is often a more affordable option than a bachelor’s degree, as it takes less time to complete. Students can typically transfer credits earned in an associate program towards a bachelor’s degree program, but you can find rewarding associate degree jobs in a wide array of industries. Have you ever thought about being an allergy technician? Architectural technician? How about a crop production specialist? Many associate degree jobs have a short payback timeframe of only two years due to a high median salary and a substantially lower tuition rate than a bachelor’s degree. You can launch a lucrative career with this 2-year college degree, sometimes even making more money than workers with a bachelor’s degree.

Plus, you can always expand your system with home automation options. While some may complain about price with ADT, you can get a doors, windows, and keypad setup for less than your cable bill.

Insulin is a hormone that helps our bodies use and store the food we eat. People with Type 1 Diabetes no longer make insulin and have to give insulin in order to sustain life. People with Type 2 Diabetes don’t use their own insulin well, and over time can have trouble making enough. So, all people with Type 1 diabetes and some people with Type 2 diabetes need insulin. When people give insulin injections, they may take 1-2 injections of a long acting insulin every day and 3+ injections of rapid acting insulin for meals and snacks. The typical person with Type 1 Diabetes could take anywhere from 4-7+ injections a day. Many people currently give insulin through an insulin pen or a syringe.

In the center of an otherwise unremarkable office stand six large robotic torsos mounted on pedestals and positioned along a bench that’s covered with piles of plastic widgets. One robot methodically moves widget after widget onto a conveyor belt, the animated face on its LCD screen displaying an expression of quiet concentration. The task is mundane, but the robot is not: This is Baxter, the culmination of nearly five years of secretive development, based on the vision of Rodney Brooks, possibly the world’s most celebrated roboticist. Now founder, chairman, and CTO of Rethink Robotics, the company that built Baxter, Brooks has his sights set characteristically high: to unleash a revolution in manufacturing with a friendly faced factory robot. With US $62 million in funding from top-tier investors such as Bezos Expeditions and Charles River Ventures, Rethink Robotics has been the subject of a great deal of interest and speculation since its founding in 2008. Like others who track robotics, we’d heard the rumors: Rethink was focusing on manufacturing; its robots would be so inexpensive every factory would be able to afford one; the robots would help make workers more efficient and American factories competitive again. But nobody knew exactly what the company was up to—or if they did, they weren’t talking. Rethink’s robot was one of the best-kept secrets in robotics, but that secret is about to be revealed with the exclusive demonstration we’re getting today in preparation for Baxter’s first shipments this month. Brooks is clearly thrilled to show off his latest creation."

Dermatologists can treat anything from a fungus or bacterial infection of the skin to various types of cancer. Dermatologists remove cancerous or unhealthy lesions from the skin, in a minor outpatient surgical procedure. In addition to medical treatment of skin conditions, dermatologists may also do aesthetic, elective procedures for patients who wish to improve skin tone and decrease signs of aging. Some of these aesthetic treatments may include laser treatment, botox injections, or collagen injections. Educational and Training Requirements Because dermatologists are physicians, they must have either an M. D. or a D. O. degree ( medical doctorate ). They must complete: Bachelor's degree - 4 years Medical degree - 4 years Residency Training - 3 years Mohs Surgery training (optional) - 1-2 years Like other physicians, dermatologists must meet the other requirements for a U. S. medical license to practice, by passing all three steps of the USMLE exam. Then, the doctor must pass the test for Board Certification by the American Board of Dermatology. Lastly, the prospective dermatologist must meet requirements for a state license in the state he or she wishes to work.

Is that possible? A: Fraxel doesn’t affect a thread lift, whether it was done more than a year ago or yesterday. The laser energy doesn’t reach down to the level of the threads and won’t harm them, anyway. Also, after a year and a half, your threads have been replaced by your body’s natural collagen. Be sure to consult a board-certified dermatologist who is an expert with Fraxel to get a stunning, uniform rejuvenation. Q: Sequences for liquid facelift, eyelid filler, thread lift, Fraxel to improve sagging skin, eye hollowness, dark circle, volume A: Just about any sequence of a liquid facelift and nonsurgical improvements could give you a really amazing rejuvenation.

"text": "Dermatology is a specialty medical field, and a dermatologist is a licensed physician who has chosen to spend several years after medical school training to specialize in diseases of the skin and related areas. It can take a long time to become a dermatologist, though many doctors find this field extremely rewarding. The path to become a doctor varies depending upon country. In the US, people must complete a four-year undergraduate degree prior to applying to medical school. Many choose to get an undergraduate degree that emphasizes keys aspects of science, especially the life sciences and chemistry, and many people complete a pre-med major in preparation for medical school. In junior or early senior year, students take the Medical College Admission Test® (MCAT®). Good scores on this test and high grades increases chances of getting into medical schools, which are usually highly competitive. Once arriving at medical school, it will take three to four years to complete a degree and then a student must take further examinations and have a certain amount of clinical practice before becoming a licensed doctor. During the last year or two of school and training, people can decide to remain in training and specialize. If they have the skill, they may be accepted to dermatology residency and training programs where they will continue their education for about five more years before they can fulfill other requirements to become a dermatologist."

Your hair has much more significance than the physiological purpose of regulating your temperature and providing protection for your scalp. Americans spend over $10 Billion dollars per year on hair care with a significant portion allocated to hair loss concerns. For most people it is a definition of their personality, style and fashion. When hair loss occurs it has a damaging effect to our psyche. Your dermatologist is a highly skilled medical professional that devotes 3 years to specialty training that includes learning how to diagnose and treat a wide variety of conditions that can affect the scalp and cause hair loss. What causes hair loss? The medical term for hair loss is Alopecia but there are many different types and causes. Both men and women may experience it in varying degrees from a slight thinning of the hair to complete baldness. Examples of the most common hair loss disorders are: Alopecia Areata-an autoimmune condition in which the hair follicles are attacked by the body’s immune cells Androgenetic Alopecia-patterned baldness that develops in males and females due to hereditary and hormonal factors Telogen Effluvium-a condition associated with excessive hair shedding of hair several months after the body experiences a major stressful event."

Many are unaware that the FBI isn't simply looking for high caliber law enforcement officers, but also a whole host of individuals with a variety of educational backgrounds and specialties. While getting a job with the FBI is notoriously competitive, there are many ways to increase the likelihood that you will be selected. For example, pursuing an educational program that includes information security with an emphasis in cypbercrime and hacker prevention. Another option is to combine a homeland security degree with previous experience in criminal psychology or counterterrorism. Get to know the degree requirements and qualifications so that you can put together an educational path that will complement your current knowledge, skills, and experience and ultimately make you a viable candidate for employment within the FBI. FBI Agent Degree Requirements The FBI requires that you have at least a Bachelor's degree and the most commonly pursued is a degree in criminal justice, law enforcement, or homeland security. The following are some recommended schools for those seeking a career in the FBI or federal law enforcement: FBI Qualifications The FBI Qualifications for becoming a Special Agent are as follows: you must first be an American citizen between the ages of 23 and 37. Proven veterans are sometimes given age waivers but usually Special Agents are done at 37. You will also need at least a Bachelors degree from a university that has been accredited by the US Secretary of Education and have at least three years of working experience prior to applying for a position with the FBI."

The case against the case against a man the Justice Department seems set on punishing for others' sins. By David Boeri · 8/21/2008, 7:35 a.m. Illustration by Sean Mc Cabe In a Miami maximum-security prison, John Connolly spends 23 hours a day alone in a 10-by-11-foot cell. The former FBI agent writes endlessly on yellow legal pads, the penmanship shaky because guards, viewing pen shafts as potential weapons, allow inmates only thin, flexible ink cartridges. His letters run to 30 pages and are fairly damp from the bile. When letters aren’t enough, he calls collect, his voice rising at the mention of his enemies: federal prosecutors, the cops who investigated him, and the mobsters who took deals to testify against him. Connolly calls them all “liars” and “bastards. ”“I am a prisoner of war,” he writes."

"text": "What does an FBI Agent do? Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents are usually involved with the investigation of federal crimes including bombings, mail fraud, kidnappings, serial killers, and identity theft. They may work with local and Federal agencies to move the investigation forward and have constant contact with those involved in the case such as suspects and witnesses. An FBI agent needs to have strong deductive reasoning to extrapolate information from a set of data given or provided to them. They examine the evidence at the crime scene and deduct the actions that have taken place, possible motive, and leads on where to start the investigation. A field agent will report in at the office and receive their assignments. These will be followed through with and reported to their superiors, and finally sent to Washington. Agents may work in close association with forensic scientists and technicians in the investigation of crime. The forensics lab in Washington is where all of the data and evidence is sent for testing and verification purposes. The agents working in the labs are highly trained and use the latest in technology to extrude information from the evidence found at a crime scene or as part of an investigation."

S. C. Section 1001)By Robert Knauer, CPCM CPPOAsk yourself what you; Martha Stewart, Darleen Druyun, and many others all have in common? They have all been indicted, and so can you under Title 18, United States Code, Section 1001, for lying to government agents. Poor Ms. Stewart today stands convicted of intentionally misleading the SEC and FBI officials who questioned her about insider trading with an insider. Lawyer David Safavian, who was the former head of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy under the Bush Administration, was one of several people charged for lying to, during his interview with investigative agents of GSA OIG, and the FBI about the his involvement with his former boss, Jack Abramoff, who today is a convicted felon. David didn’t do anything wrong in reality, but he did lie under oath to agents of our government. You might be just like Martha, David and Dirty Old Darleen of the Air force that did the same thing. No matter what your background, wealth, job or circumstances, you can be ensnared by 18 U. S. C., Section 1001, which is a favorite of all federal prosecutors. To be sure, law enforcement can and will get you! Title 18, United States Code, Section 1001 makes it a crime to: 1) knowingly and willfully; 2) make any materially false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or representation; 3) in any matter within the jurisdiction of the executive, legislative or judicial branch of the United States. ( Your little lie does not even have to be made directly to an employee of the U. S. government, as long as it is \"\"within the jurisdiction\"\" of our ever expanding federal bureaucracy)."

"text": "Home » College What Classes Should You Take in College to Become a Criminal Profiler? By Sara Rajan Criminal profilers develop psychological profiles of criminals. A criminal profiler, in what is also known as investigative psychology and crime action profiling, develops a psychological profile that is used to help apprehend a suspect. Although one cannot simply apply for a position as a criminal profiler -- there is no such position in the FBI-- one can apply to the FBI first as a special agent. Once the applicant has three years' experience as an FBI special agent, he can apply to the National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime (NCAVC) at Quantico, Virginia. NCAVC agents do, in fact, profile criminals. Anyone interested in becoming an NCAVC agent must first meet specific educational requirements for working as an FBI special agent. Agents enter under one of these categories: accounting, computer science/information technology, language, law programming and diversified. Accounting An accountant keeps record of a business or company's expenses and income. To qualify under the accounting entry program in the FBI, special agent candidates must possess a CPA or, at minimum, a bachelor's degree in accounting with three years of professional work in an accounting firm or similar public setting."

Each of the varied career opportunities with the FBI requires a college education and years of professional experience.

I have spoken with some of their agents. The applications are filed in different categories- Any 4 year degree, language, accountants, and any application with SWAT or special operations. If you have any 4 year degree, depending on what area you are applying from, you will be towards the bottom of the list. I. E. you need a masters degree or higher to get towards the top of the list. Accountants- that means that more than likely you will be doing accounting work. If you dont mind riding a desk and looking over paper work its a pretty quick way to get hired. But the one problem is that you have to be a licensed Accountant and that test is long and it sucks. SWAT- you have to have 3 years min on a part time team for this to apply to you. But then you get into debt as life goes by and you might end up just being a cop unless you really have to drive to stick with it and finish a 4 year degree in the mean time."

The FBI is holding a job fair this week, hoping to find contract linguists. Eric Leach, a regional program manager for the FBI, says the agency is looking for people who are highly skilled in a variety of languages, but the priorities are Somali, Hebrew, Farsi, and Mandarin Chinese. Applicants must meet the following requirements: Contract Linguist Requirements Must be a U. S. citizen Must have resided in U. S. 3 of last 5 years Must be fluent in English and a foreign language needed by the FBIForeign languages needed most: Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin), Hebrew, Farsi, Pashto, Somali, Spanish & many others Nationally, more than 95 percent of FBI linguists are native speakers of a foreign language, but that's not a requirement for the job nor the case in Utah. \"\" In Salt Lake we have a different mix,\"\" Leach said. \"\" We have a lot of people who are very proficient at foreign languages. Here we have, I think 30 percent who are native English speakers who learned that (foreign) language maybe living overseas for two years, maybe got a college degree later. \"\" According to the FBI's website, linguists work in a variety of interpretation and translation assignments. They also play an important role in providing cultural awareness to FBI agents, intelligence analysts, and other FBI employees. The FBI has nearly 1,500 linguists nationwide supporting over 100 different foreign language requirements."

Union representatives provide services to union members, answer questions members may have, and ensure that all members are receiving the benefits and rights they are entitled to under the terms of the union contract. Union representatives must be well-versed in industrial relations and negotiating employment contracts, management methods and labor laws. They must be aware of any workplace issues affecting their members, and they should also develop a sound knowledge of the organizations for which their members work. Representatives are usually driven to provide their fellow employees equal and fair labor practices. They act as a liaison between the management and the union members. Union representatives often address large groups of people on issues affecting their union and make sure that all members understand their rights. Analogous to a labor relations specialist or a human resources specialist, union representatives focus their work on employment trends, negotiating and interpreting collective agreements and often mediating labor relations disputes. They are specialists involved in collective bargaining disputes and discussions, and they focus their work on union contract issues such as salaries, holidays, sick days and employee conduct. Often acting as a mediator between management and union members, they help ratify agreements between both parties and find solutions that everyone can agree on."

Job Descriptions November 15, 2013For many, a banker’s job seems like the most ideal career in the world, as it involves handling other people’s money. However, it involves far more than simply safeguarding the cash entrusted to the banker and attaching a percentage for services rendered. Bankers are the mediators for investors and those who wish to sell their investments. When bankers accept deposits from a customer, they reinvest the amount in higher yield debt and equity instruments. They investigate the credit risk of customers applying for a loan. Bankers are responsible for establishing solid customer relationships, the planning and delivery of sales strategies or products and monitoring their progress. A Position of Responsibility Handling other people’s money involves gaining the customer’s trust. The primary function of a bank is to use the deposits, made by customers, to lend it out to others. The amount of money that can be lent is directly affected by the regulatory controls of the Federal Reserve, which stipulates that a bank must hold between three to ten percent of the total deposits."

Problem-solving and decision-making. Ask anyone in the workplace if these activities are part of their day and they answer 'Yes!' But how many of us have had training in problem-solving? We know it's a critical element of our work, but do we know how to do it effectively? People tend to do three things when faced with a problem: they get afraid or uncomfortable and wish it would go away; they feel that they have to come up with an answer and it has to be the right answer; and they look for someone to blame. Being faced with a problem becomes a problem. And that's a problem because, in fact, there are always going to be problems!There are two reasons why we tend to see a problem as a problem: it has to be solved and we're not sure how to find the best solution, and there will probably be conflicts about what the best solution is. Most of us tend to be \"\"conflict-averse\"\". We don't feel comfortable dealing with conflict and we tend to have the feeling that something bad is going to happen."

"text": "\"Credit: patpitchaya/Shutterstock A successful business is founded on a series of sound decisions, so the way you analyze situations and choose to react is essential. When trying to assess the lay of the land, few tools are more useful than the SWOT analysis. It stands for strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats; the SWOT analysis is a planning process that allows your company to overcome challenges and determine what new leads to pursue. The primary objective of a SWOT analysis is to help organizations develop a full awareness of all the factors involved in a decision. This method was created in the 1960s by Edmund P. Learned, C. Roland Christensen, Kenneth Andrews and William D. Book in their book \"\" Business Policy, Text and Cases \"\" (R. D. Irwin, 1969). \"\" It is impossible to accurately map out a small business's future without first evaluating it from all angles, which includes an exhaustive look at all internal and external resources and threats,\"\" said Bonnie Taylor, chief marketing strategist at CCS Innovations. \"\" A SWOT accomplishes this in four straightforward steps that even rookie business owners can understand and embrace. \"\" When should you use SWOT? You could employ SWOT before you commit to any sort of company action, whether you're exploring new initiatives, revamping internal policies, considering opportunities to pivot, or altering a plan midway through its execution. Sometimes it's wise to perform a general SWOT analysis just to check on the current landscape in which your business finds itself."

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1857)Emotion, alienation, and narratives: resolving intractable conflict Suzanne Retzinger and Thomas Scheff Abstract This article explores the role of emotion and alienation in protracted conflict, making preliminary suggestions as to how they might be managed. First we note the slight attention given these topics in the mediation/negotiation literature. Then we show how emotional/relational issues are related to theories of economic/political interests, on the one hand, and narratives and ideologies of conflict, on the other. We focus on the way alienated relationships impair communication, and the way they generate intense emotions, especially shame and anger. In our view, secret (unacknowledged) alienation and shame are the primary causes of intractable conflict. Finally, we propose a role for mediators in the acknowledgment of emotion and alienation as a way of resolving intractable conflicts. Most current training for negotiation/mediation hardly mentions feelings and emotions. Much of the literature on mediation states or at least implies that emotions should be ignored, as if both sides of a dispute can be coaxed into behaving rationally. However, Fisher, Ury, and Patton (1991), the most popular book in this field, suggest that emotions need to be dealt with first, before substance (pp."

"text": "\"Scholarly Resources Subscribe to CIC Printer friendly PDFA Biblically based commentary on current issues that impact you Richard Foster—Celebration of Deceptionby Bob De Waay In February 2008, Christianity Today ran a glowing cover story about Evangelicalism's recent embrace of medieval Roman Catholic mysticism entitled The Future lies in the Past. 1 The article traced the beginning of the movement as follows: \"\"The movement seems to have exploded in a 24-month period in 1977-1978, which saw the publication of Richard Foster's bestselling Celebration of Discipline: The Path to Spiritual Growth and Robert Webber's Common Roots: A Call to Evangelical Maturity.\"\" 2The article views Foster as one who continues to guide the movement: \"\"From Dallas Willard, Richard Foster, and living practicing monks and nuns, they [those going back to Roman Catholic mysticism] must learn both the strengths and the limits of the historical ascetic disciplines.\"\" 3 So Foster was instrumental in starting a movement that is still growing 30-plus years later. The irony about this particular CIC regarding Foster's 1978 book is that in 1978 I myself was living in a Christian community committed to practicing much of what he promotes in Celebration of Discipline (even though we had not learned it from him directly). So I am not criticizing a practice about which I know nothing (or one in which I have no experience). I am criticizing a practice I foolishly allowed to deceive me for a significant portion of my early Christian life. When it comes to being deceived by mysticism, I have had abundant involvement. The only way I escaped it was through discovering and adopting the Reformation principle of sola scriptura. In this article I will show that Foster's \"\"journey inward\"\" is unbiblical and dangerous."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Expectancy violations theory ( EVT) is a theory of communication that analyzes how individuals respond to unanticipated violations of social norms and expectations. [ 1] The theory was proposed by Judee K. Burgoon in the late 1970s and continued through the 1980s and 1990s as \"\"nonverbal expectancy violations theory\"\", based on Burgoon's research studying proxemics. [ 2] [3] [4] Burgoon's work initially analyzed individuals' allowances and expectations of personal distance and how responses to personal distance violations were influenced by the level of liking and relationship to the violators. [ 2] The theory was later changed to its current name when other researchers began to focus on violations of social behavior expectations beyond nonverbal communication. [ 1] [5]This theory sees communication as an exchange of behaviors, where one individual's behavior can be used to violate the expectations of another. Participants in communication will perceive the exchange either positively or negatively, depending upon an existing personal relationship or how favorably the violation is perceived. [ 3] [6] [1] [7] Violations of expectancies cause arousal and compel the recipient to initiate a series of cognitive appraisals of the violation. [ 8] The theory predicts that expectancies influence the outcome of the communication interaction as either positive or negative and predicts that positive violations increase the attraction of the violator and negative violations decrease the attraction of the violator. [ 1]Beyond proxemics and examining how people interpret violations in many given communicative contexts, EVT also makes specific predictions about individuals' reaction to given expectation violations: individuals reciprocate or match someone's unexpected behavior, and they also compensate or counteract by doing the opposite of the communicator's behavior.

"text": "Narration in Poetry and Drama Last modified: 6 December 2012Peter Hühn & Roy Sommer [1]1 Definition [2]Narration as a communicative act in which a chain of happenings is meaningfully structured and transmitted in a particular medium and from a particular point of view underlies not only narrative fiction proper but also poems and plays in that they, too, represent temporally organized sequences and thus relate “stories,” albeit with certain genre-specific differences, necessarily mediating them in the manner of presentation. Lyric poetry in the strict sense (and not only obviously narrative poetry like ballads or verse romances) typically features strings of primarily mental or psychological happenings perceived through the consciousness of single speakers and articulated from their position. Drama enacts strings of happenings with actors in live performance, the presentation of which, though typically devoid of any overt presenting agency, is mediated e.g. through selection, segmentation and arrangement. Thanks to these features characteristic of narrative, lyric poems as well as plays performed on the stage can be profitably analyzed with the transgeneric application of narratological categories, though with poetry the applicability of the notion of story and with drama that of mediation seems to be in question. [ 3]2 Explication [4]Transgeneric narratology proceeds from the assumption that narratology’s highly differentiated system of categories can be applied to the analysis of both poems and plays, possibly opening the way to a more precise definition of their respective generic specificity, even though (lyric) poems do not seem to tell stories and stories in dramas do not seem to be mediated (but presented directly). As far as poetry is concerned, the following argument concentrates on lyric poetry in the narrow sense: that narratological categories are generally applicable to narrative verse is obvious. [ 5]If narration is defined as the representation of chains of happenings in a medium by a mediating agent, then the three traditional genres, prose fiction, poetry (Schönert Schönert, Jörg (2004). “ Normative Vorgaben als ‘Theorie der Lyrik’?

"text": "Why Communications Majors Might Have More Choices in Life June 19, 2012 by William Frierson In some circles, choosing to major in communications is the academic equivalent of choosing to major in underwater basket weaving. Some dismiss the major as “fluffy,” or easy, or the place for students who don’t really want to study (or get a job), but are just getting a degree to please their parents. In reality, though, nothing could be further from the truth. Communications – which encompasses fields including journalism, mass communication, public relations and advertising – is a versatile major that opens the door to a wide variety of careers. In fact, the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics lists more career opportunities for communications graduates than any other major, including computer science, engineering and mathematics. If you’re considering majoring in communications, you probably know some of your options already. But a communications degree opens the door to a number of careers beyond journalism and public relations that you might not have considered, including: Government. Did you think all of those politicians write their own speeches? At every level of government, from small cities all the way up to the nation’s capital, communications professionals work behind the scenes to create messages and communicate what’s happening in government. Government communications options run the gamut from speechwriter or press secretary, to communications assistant, where you actually serve as a liaison between elected officials and their constituents."

PRESKORN, MDJournal of Practical Psychiatry and Behavioral Health, March 2000, 97-102General Bucky Turgeson in the Stanley Kubrick movie, Dr. Strangelove, was mighty proud of his aerial warriors and their B-52s. This series of planes, first rolled out in the 1950s, are still being used. The longevity and value of these planes are the result of their ability to deliver so many different types of payloads to their targets. For similar reasons, I suspect Bucky would have loved imipramine, mirtazapine, and nefazodone. These drugs are multiple action antidepressants that are capable of affecting multiple targets at the concentrations achieved over their clinically relevant dosing range ( Figure 1 ). That fact distinguishes them from the norepinephrine selective reuptake inhibitors (NSRIs) (e.g., desipramine) and from the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) (e.g., sertraline) ( Figure 2 ). NSRIs and SSRIs have a binding affinity for the site believed to mediate their antidepressant efficacy that is at least an order of magnitude greater than their binding affinity for other neural mechanisms of action. 5 In this column, I will focus on how the differences between the in vitro pharmacology of the multiple mechanism of action antidepressants (e.g., imipramine, mirtazapine, nefazodone) and that of the single mechanism of action antidepressants (i.e., SSRIs and NSRIs) account for the differences in their clinical pharmacology. This column is the fifth in a series reviewing the clinical relevance of in vitro binding affinity. Although I have focused on antidepressants in this series, the basic pharmacological principles I have covered are applicable to any class of medications."

I good place to start your research is online. Your State's department of real estate's website is going to tell you everything you will need to become a broker.

"text": "\"Personal bankers work in retail banking branches and assist customers with various needs, such as opening checking and savings accounts; obtaining mortgage and auto loans; investing in certificates of deposit (CDs), money markets and other commercial banking products; and planning for retirement or college. While investment bankers work mostly with institutional investors, personal bankers work primarily with everyday people. Most of their customers are private citizens of the communities in which the bankers work. Personal banking typically does not pay as well as investment banking and other Wall Street careers, but it offers a significantly better work-life balance, and the hours are much more reasonable. In fact, the term \"\"bankers' hours\"\" was coined to describe the limited hours local bankers are perceived to spend on the job. A typical investment bank features scores of well-heeled Ivy League graduates sitting behind their Bloomberg terminals and talking aggressively, hawking the latest deals into their headsets. The stereotype of an investment banker is an aggressive, well-educated and money-hungry youth. Most personal bankers are cut from a different cloth. While a business degree helps, and an MBA looks even better on a personal banker's resume, a lot of local bank branches care less about educational credentials than about community reputation, networking ability and affability. These banks pride themselves on hometown service and prefer to see hometown bankers meeting and greeting new customers."

"text": "Difference Between Mortgage Broker and a Bank Last Updated: August 10, 2017There was a time when most homebuyers obtained their mortgage loans through their local bank or their credit union. Today, there are a number of home-financing options available which make it hard for a first-time buyer to know which route to take. Knowing which lender is the right fit for you and your financial situation is imperative to be approved and getting a home loan. Which is right for you? Let's take a look at the difference between using a mortgage broker or using a bank (also called a direct lender) to secure your mortgage loan. What is a Mortgage Broker? A mortgage broker is a type of middleman who represents many lenders and all of their loan products. The broker's goal is to match the loan product that best meets your needs at the best possible price. Once your loan is approved, you will usually deal directly with the loan originator or their mortgage service provider.866.785.9884 Call for a FREE credit repair consultation & FICO ® score from Lexington Law What is a Bank or Direct Lender?

"text": "What Do Loan Processors Do? I’ve already covered the mortgage underwriter’s role, so let’s take a look at what “loan processors” do seeing that they’re also key to getting your loan closed in a timely fashion. Once a loan is originated by the mortgage broker or loan officer, the corresponding paperwork is sent along to a loan processor. The loan processor is responsible for prepping and organizing the file and getting it over to the bank or mortgage lender for approval. Loan Processors Are Very Important Processors assist brokers and loan officers By compiling important paperwork And looking out for any red flags Before submitting the loan file to the underwriter Loan processors don’t just grab the loan file and submit it; they double-check everything like debt-to-income ratios and employment information to ensure the file will actually be approved. [ See today's mortgage rates from dozens of lenders, updated daily . ] For this reason, they play a critical role in the loan approval process, as mistakes made by the loan originator could be caught and corrected before the file lands in the unforgiving hands of an underwriter. After all, once it gets to the underwriter there’s no going back. Sure, you can fix some things, but not without a lot of red tape. Assuming the loan is approved, the processor will receive a list of prior-to-document conditions (PTDs) that must be met before loan documents are released by the bank."

"text": "Loan Origination Fee Loan origination refers to the initiation and completion of the home loan process, which begins when a borrower submits their financial information to a bank or mortgage lender for loan processing. Depending on documentation type, a borrower will have to supply certain credit, income, asset, and employment information to a specified bank or lender to initiate the underwriting of the loan application. Along with that, the borrower will have to sign forms that allow the mortgage broker (if applicable) and bank or lender to pull a credit report and release information about the borrower. Once the information is submitted to the appropriate bank or lender, an underwriter will decision the application, either approving, suspending, or declining the loan. [ See today's mortgage rates from dozens of lenders, updated daily . ] To sum it up, loan origination is simply the creation of a mortgage. It may begin with a phone call, an e-mail, a mortgage rate quote, or a referral from a real estate agent. Loan Originators Are Salespeople The phrase loan originator Is just another way of saying a loan officer Or a mortgage broker It is the individual who helps you get a home loan So who’s behind all this loan origination anyways? Well, loan originators of course. They’re also known as loan officers, mortgage brokers, loan specialists or simply salespeople."

For example, review the difference between a real estate agent and a broker. Anyone who sells real estate on behalf of the owner is a real estate agent. To practice, you must first take a training course, pass a test, and receive a license. State requirements for licenses vary. There are two levels of licensure.

It’s true, loan officer jobs pay more than most any other occupation out there, assuming you haven’t passed the bar or made your way through medical school. Or happen to be a financial advisor or a pro athlete. But it can’t be that easy, could it? To make six figures without a high school diploma you would think you’d have to invent something or start your own business. But the prospect of being a loan officer has changed conventional thought, especially as the housing market shot off in recent years like a bottle rocket. So now as we lie in the wake of the housing bubble bust, are loan officers still making money? The answer is a resounding YES, but the number of loan officers has probably been cut in half, if not more in the past few years or so. ["

When it comes to mortgages, most people don’t have the time or know-how to ensure they are getting the best possible mortgage product and rate available to them. However, they also do not want to have to pay someone in order to get their mortgage in place. There is a common misconception that all mortgage brokers charge fees to the client for their services, when in fact almost all major and reputable brokerages do not, except for in a couple of unique scenarios. It’s important to understand the difference between using a broker and simply going to your bank, as well as how they get paid on each type of mortgage transaction. The Benefits of using a Mortgage Broker About 1 in 3 Canadian’s are now getting their mortgages via a broker, and that number is continually rising year after year. The reasons range from better service to better rates and mortgage products than what are typically offered at the bank. The reason being that if you go to the bank for a loan, your only choice will be mortgage products and offers carried by that independent institution, and as a result of this, its loan options may be limited and/or may not be the best deal on the market. However, if you were to use a mortgage broker, he or she should have a variety of loan options available from various lenders. The broker will assess your individual needs then shop the market for the best offer available using up to a few dozen different institutional lenders at their disposal, including the major banks."

They work directly with both the consumer and the bank to help consumers qualify for a mortgage, whether it be a purchase mortgage or a refinance. Borrower/Homeowner <— Mortgage Broker —> Bank/Mortgage Lender As you can see from my rather rudimentary, yet fairly time consuming diagram above, the mortgage broker acts as a liaison between two important entities during the home loan process. The borrower/homeowner end is the retail side, while the bank/lender end is the wholesale (B2B) side. These three entities don’t all communicate with one another. Instead, the mortgage broker communicates with both parties separately, so you’ll never actually speak to the bank or lender originating your home loan.

A mortgage promissory note is the agreement you sign at a mortgage closing which obligates both you and your lender to abide by the terms set out in the agreement.

If you need additional copies of your mortgage note, there are a couple different ways to get them. Closing Documents When you closed your loan, you likely received a package of documents. This package contains your income and employment documents that you gave to your lender for pre-qualification, and all of the documents you signed at your closing with your attorney or notary public. These will have included the HUD-1A, the rescission notice and the mortgage note. You might have an unsigned and a signed copy of the mortgage note in this collection of documents. Lender If you cannot find your closing documents, or have lost this paperwork, you can contact your current mortgage lender to obtain the original mortgage note.

Most of the mortgage industry appears oblivious to the pending implementation debacle awaiting the industry. There are plenty of webinars and seminars outlining the requirements of the rule, but few programs point out changes in policies and procedures needed to implement the rule. There is no messiah that will reverse this rule, and there is no guardian angel to lead you through the jungle of integrated mortgage implementation. Mortgage brokers and lenders that are adrift in a sea of rules need to find land in a hurry. There are two issues on the surface that perplex most lenders: (i) whether the lender will trust mortgage brokers to properly prepare and deliver the initial disclosure, and (ii) whether the lender will trust the closing agent to prepare and deliver the final disclosure. A number of thorny communications issues are imbedded in the choice of who prepares these disclosures; however, mortgage brokers and lenders must remember that most of the iceberg is below the surface.

GENERIC NAME: SEVELAMER - ORAL (seh-VELL-uh-mer)BRAND NAME (S): Renagel, Renvela Medication Uses | How To Use | Side Effects | Precautions | Drug Interactions | Overdose | Notes | Missed Dose | Storage USES: Sevelamer is used to lower high blood phosphorus (phosphate) levels in patients who are on dialysis due to severe kidney disease. Dialysis removes some phosphate from your blood, but it is difficult to remove enough to keep your phosphate levels balanced. Decreasing blood phosphate levels can help keep your bones strong, prevent unsafe buildup of minerals in your body, and possibly decrease the risk of heart disease and strokes that can result from high phosphate levels. Sevelamer works by holding onto phosphate from the diet so that it can pass out of your body. HOW TO USE: Take this medication by mouth, usually 3 times daily with meals or as directed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole. Do not crush, chew, or split the tablet. Dosage is based on your medical condition, any other medications you take to lower your phosphate levels, and your response to therapy."

"text": "How to Become A Pharmacist Introduction to Pharmacy: Pharmacy is a sub-sector of healthcare that connects the health and chemical sciences. Its major role is distributing pharmaceutical drugs in an organized and regulated manner. Though the number of pharmacy applications represents more orthodox roles such as supplying medicine, it also includes the more contemporary services related to health care, such as reviewing medical drugs for safety and effectiveness, clinical services and providing drug information. Featured Schools Pharmacists are licensed professionals that oversee the process of the delivery of pharmaceutical drugs, both over-the-counter and prescription, to patients and the general public. The primary aim of this profession is to provide patients with a means of accessing FDA approved drugs and other general supplements and medication. The following paragraphs shed more light on how to become a pharmacist. Qualifications in Pharmacy: Traditionally, a Bachelor of Pharmacy was considered the first-professional degree for pharmacy practice. However now all aspiring pharmacists are required to earn a Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm. D.) through a doctoral program accredited by the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP). Individuals who who are working towards becoming a pharmacist must complete 2-3 years of study in an undergraduate program in order to enroll in a Doctor of Pharmacy."

However, Goose’s story of the young pharmacy school graduate who thought older pharmacists should step aside and leave their jobs to new Pharm Ds struck a nerve, and the e-mails have been coming in ever since. Here's what your fellow pharms are saying. Many middle-aged pharmacists wrote to tell us about on-the-job — or end-of-job — experiences that they attribute to age discrimination. However, others said that they were chosen for positions of responsibility later in life precisely because of their years of experience. Some said that in spite of the challenges, they are making the best of difficult work situations because the satisfaction of work well done continues to drive them. A few young Pharm Ds wrote to say how much they appreciated older pharmacists as exemplars and mentors.

According to the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners (NAPNAP), they reach million of patients annually and spend one-on-one time with patients, treating common illnesses and listening to descriptions of symptoms, just as pediatric physicians might do. In fact, the NAPNAP reports that 51 percent of its members spend anywhere from 16 to 20 minutes with a patient during a typical appointment. Furthermore, just 8.3 percent of all NPs choose a specialty focus in pediatrics (primary care), according to the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP), meaning that there could be many opportunities available for nurses interested this advanced practice field. What Does a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner Do? According to Vanderbilt University’s School of Nursing, pediatric nurse practitioners provide compassionate and high quality care to children of all ages, ranging from birth up to the age of 21. They work in a variety of settings, including health care clinics and physician offices, and help prevent disease, promote health, and educate family members on plans of care. Specific services they may provide, include: Childhood immunizations Developmental screenings Medication prescriptions in some states, depending upon law School physicals Treatment of common illnesses Well-child exams They work hand-in-hand with pediatricians and other healthcare providers. In fact, as the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences’ College of Nursing notes, the PNP essentially “fills” the role that falls between that of a nurse and the pediatrician and, in a pediatrician’s office, can see and treat children by themselves, without supervision, or, when warranted, turn to a pediatrician for further assistance.

The latest numbers from the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) predict that employment of registered nurses will grow 19 percent between 2012 and 2022. This is compared to 11 percent growth expected across all occupations during the same time period. As we’ve discussed in recent articles on nursing salary and the highest paying nurse specialties, RN salaries vary widely across the U. S., from state to state and city to city. Of course, the cost of living varies just as widely. With this in mind, check out the following data exploring what the nursing industry is like in different areas across the country, including states with the highest (and lowest) nurse salaries, cost of living and more. We know that each nurse has his or her own definition of “best” and “worst” places to work; does this data impact your perceptions? Do the numbers reinforce that you are happy where you are working or make you want to explore possibilities in new areas? Let us know in the comments below!Top Five RN Mean Hourly Wage by State As it has for many years, California has the highest RN pay rate of any state, with an annual mean salary of $98,400, according to the BLS.

Keep in mind that regional or even local pay can vary substantially from these numbers (especially for surveys with only a few hundred respondents). Fortunately, Pay Scale lets you input your own data to get an idea of how you really stack up against your “competition.” We’re interested to see how accurate these numbers are for our readers. Is your pay in line with what other nurses are making?"

"text": "How Much Does Nursing School Cost? Since going to nursing school will include paying tuition and fees, many students are worried about the cost. Of course, this can be a difficult figure to obtain, since the cost will depend directly on the type of degree you get (2 year or 4 year degree), the location of the school (places with higher costs of living will charge more), as well as the individual school itself (some schools may charge thousands more than a school across the street). So how much does nursing school cost? What kind of fees will you incur? How much money will the degree cost total? How Much Nursing School Costs First, these are general figures, and over time they may change. Therefore, the best way to calculate the most accurate cost would be to find a nursing school you hope to attend, and then see what they charge for tuition and fees. Most nursing school websites will lay this out up front. You can browse some of the nursing schools in our online nursing school directory."

I initially wanted to go to PA school but later changed my mind to go ahead and go to nursing school with intent of getting my nurse practitioners license. I have always been intrigued with orthopedic surgery and I know that PAs can perform surgery legally. Vanderbilt states that a nurse practitioner can practice whatever form of medicine that the primary physician practices I was just curious if that included surgery. I read in a couple of the older forums that nurse practitioners can perform surgery but it's very rare but I haven't been able to find any proof of that. Thanks!21 Comments Comment1 2 Next »Apr 7, '14Few things control what NP's can do: 1. State NP Act - most state NP acts do not go into detail about what NP's can do except for the very basic \"\"Assessment, Diagnosis, and Treatment\"\" of patients they see.

"text": "\"Do BSN nurses provide better care? A paper entitled \"\"An increase in the number of nurses with baccalaureate degrees is linked to lower rates of postsurgery mortality\"\" appeared in Health Affairs in March and generated quite a lot of buzz on the Internet. Its major finding was that hospitals in Pennsylvania that had 10% more nurses with BSN degrees were found to have 2.12 fewer deaths per 1000 postop patients than those that did not. The authors extrapolated this, saying that if all the hospitals they surveyed had the same percentage of BSN nurses as the best performers, 500 deaths may have been avoided. The reduction in mortality rates was not significantly affected by staffing levels, skill mix or years of experience as a nurse. The mechanism for the decrease in death rates was not explained but assumed to be better rates of \"\"rescue\"\" after the development of complications which also was significantly associated with the presence of more BSN nurses and not staffing levels, skill mix or years of experience as a nurse. The abstract concludes, \"\"The findings provide support for efforts to increase the production and employment of baccalaureate nurses. \"\" The math in the paper is confusing. In 2006, 25,000 nurses responded and 1/3 (presumably about 8,333) of them were staff nurses in general hospitals. The information from those 8,333 nurses was the basis of the study."

Scrubs are often a solid color such as white or blue which helps point out potential areas for contaminants, however depending on where the nurse works they may be able to wear more fashionable scrubs with design patterns and multiple colors.

Well, let me just say, I have found my new go-to pair of scrubs with Carhartt ! The 3 items I got are the V-Neck Media Scrub Top, the Utility Boot Cut Scrub Pants and the Knit Mix Zip Front Jacket . First, let me tell you about the fabric, it is similar to other brands I have worn before, like Jockey; but there is lightness to this fabric that I love. I don’t feel weighted down or restricted like some scrubs make you feel. The fabric is a stretch dobby 94% Polyester and 6% Spandex and has Fast Dry ®, Stain Breaker ® and Rugged Flex ® technology. The fabric stretches, moves with you and hold its shape all day and if you’re constantly running around like I am, then you will appreciate the movement of these scrubs. Secondly, I can’t get over the way these scrubs wash and dry. I have been wearing these for a few months and they look just as good as they did the first day I got them. I also want to note that I have 2 cats and a dog and I have no problems with pet hair sticking to my scrubs."

Young lawyers are become so accustomed to typing their own things that they had simply never learn how to dictate. How to Do Dictation Properly This ignorance (no offence) about how to do dictation shows in a number of ways in young lawyers. The first is that their written material has a tendency to be of extremely high quality. Inherently, of course, there is nothing wrong with producing high quality written content. But, by and large, the focus at University is on written language, and as a result young lawyers can often be lacking in the area of rhetoric.

Smaller facilities may hire you without much experience and may have the time to train you. Larger facilities want experience becuase they are busy all the time. They don't have time to train you."

A few of the president-elect’s cabinet appointments have drawn criticism, especially the former Goldman Sachs employees whose presence stands in contrast with Trump’s proposal to “drain the swamp.” On the other hand, there have been a number of picks that have been praised by both Democrats and Republicans, especially by establishment Republicans who did not support Donald Trump during the election. Many of the individuals on this list have already begun their cabinet hearings, although nobody has been approved at this time. Here’s’s a look at everyone that President-elect Trump has nominated for a position in his cabinet.

While many of these people may not want to go to law school or become a lawyer, there are many other positions that are available in law firms across the country. Two of the most common professions, other than lawyers, that are hired by law firms are paralegals and legal secretaries. While many people may feel that paralegals and legal secretaries are very similar jobs, there are actually many significant differences. Education The first difference between a paralegal and a legal secretary is the level of education that is required. The vast majority of paralegals have at least a college degree. Many schools offer paralegal programs, which are four-year bachelor’s degree programs, in which a person will learn most of the legal basics. Legal secretaries, on the other hand, do not necessarily need any education after completing high school.

A notary's main functions are to administer oaths and affirmations, take affidavits and statutory declarations, witness and authenticate the execution of certain classes of documents, take acknowledgments of deeds and other conveyances, protest notes and bills of exchange, provide notice of foreign drafts, prepare marine or ship's protests in cases of damage, provide exemplifications and notarial copies, and perform certain other official acts depending on the jurisdiction. [ 1] Any such act is known as a notarization. The term notary public only refers to common-law notaries and should not be confused with civil-law notaries. With the exceptions of Louisiana, Puerto Rico, Quebec, whose private law is based on civil law, and British Columbia, whose notarial tradition stems from scrivener notary practice, a notary public in the rest of the United States and most of Canada has powers that are far more limited than those of civil-law or other common-law notaries, both of whom are qualified lawyers admitted to the bar: such notaries may be referred to as notaries-at-law or lawyer notaries. Therefore, at common law, notarial service is distinctly different from the practice of law, and giving legal advice and preparing legal instruments is forbidden to lay notaries such as those appointed throughout most of the United States of America.

Here is the Truth:1. Heartworm is not a canine pandemic. In fact, heartworm is pretty rare in much of the country, and in very cold areas of the country a veterinarian may go his or her entire career without seeing a single case. Look at the map, above, put out by a major vendor of heartworm tests (Idexx) who has every reason in the world to overstate (rather than to understate) the problem. You will notice how low the baseline state numbers are -- 500 cases is the top of the color scale -- and that this map covers seven years of data collecting. You will also note that this map does not show adult heartworm infestation in dogs, but simply the number of dogs that tested positive for heartworm. More on that important distinction in a minute. Data on heartworm incidence rates at the local level reinforces how rare heart worm really is. For example, on the map above, California is coded red-hot with 500 cases."

"text": "\"Home » Dog Care Center To Vaccinate or Not: A Vet's Perspective By T. J. Dunn, Jr., DVMAmong pet caretakers few topics are more debated than that regarding the vaccination of dogs (and cats). How often do dogs need shots? Which shots are essential and which are overkill? Is the vaccination of dogs and cats even necessary? In years past, vaccinations for all sorts of diseases were recommended to be given annually ... year after year. That protocol was followed by veterinarians because they were told to do so by the vaccine manufacturers in order to ensure optimal immunity for as many pets as possible. If a veterinarian independently decided not to follow the label recommendations on the vaccines, and an animal subsequently developed a disease that the veterinarian decided vaccination for wasn't needed, the veterinarian was vulnerable to being sued. Ethically and legally the veterinarian must follow label recommendations for the administration of biologicals. In recent years, the vaccine manufacturers have been under some pressure to show data that truly demonstrates a need for annual vaccinations for dogs (and cats). Part of the drive for reconsideration of vaccine protocols has been coming from Holistic veterinary practitioners, many of whom believe that repeated vaccinations diminish the animal's immune resources and can actually create disorders such as degenerative joint diseases, immune mediated disorders such as Lupus, and can actually depress the animal's ability to ward off diseases \"\"naturally\"\"."

As those days near, it's very normal to feel a bit on edge, and the best way to put your mind at ease is by learning as much as possible about what to expect. It's imperative, therefore, to familiarize yourself as much as you can with the canine birthing process and acknowledge the number of things that may go wrong. By recognizing potential problems early, you will be able to be better prepared to face them, heightening your chances for a safe delivery. Learn more about the whole birthing time frame for your dog from the first stages of labor up to delivery, and learn how to recognize the potential complications. Because each breed of dog is prone to different complications, and each dog is ultimately unique in the birthing and whelping process, it's best to expect the unexpected, and preparedness is the ultimate key for the successful upbringing of litters of healthy puppies.

Do not try to treat the cat’s fever at home as many medications are dangerous for cats and the underlying cause of the fever could be serious. Fever is a common symptom of infections, illnesses, some cancers, and various disorders. Cats are considered to have a fever if their body temperature is higher than 103 degrees Fahrenheit. A serious fever that requires immediate medical treatment occurs if the animal’s body temperature reaches 106 degrees Fahrenheit or higher. With these higher temperatures, cats can be at a high risk of brain and heart damage and even death. Symptoms of Fever in Cats The primary symptom associated with fever in cats is a body temperature over 103 degrees Fahrenheit. Observable symptoms generally include flushing and lethargy."

"text": "\"Home » Dog Care Center To Vaccinate or Not: A Vet's Perspective By T. J. Dunn, Jr., DVMAmong pet caretakers few topics are more debated than that regarding the vaccination of dogs (and cats). How often do dogs need shots? Which shots are essential and which are overkill? Is the vaccination of dogs and cats even necessary? In years past, vaccinations for all sorts of diseases were recommended to be given annually ... year after year. That protocol was followed by veterinarians because they were told to do so by the vaccine manufacturers in order to ensure optimal immunity for as many pets as possible. If a veterinarian independently decided not to follow the label recommendations on the vaccines, and an animal subsequently developed a disease that the veterinarian decided vaccination for wasn't needed, the veterinarian was vulnerable to being sued. Ethically and legally the veterinarian must follow label recommendations for the administration of biologicals. In recent years, the vaccine manufacturers have been under some pressure to show data that truly demonstrates a need for annual vaccinations for dogs (and cats). Part of the drive for reconsideration of vaccine protocols has been coming from Holistic veterinary practitioners, many of whom believe that repeated vaccinations diminish the animal's immune resources and can actually create disorders such as degenerative joint diseases, immune mediated disorders such as Lupus, and can actually depress the animal's ability to ward off diseases \"\"naturally\"\"."

Veterinarians diagnose and treat diseases affecting animals large and small. A desire to work with animals, however, is only the beginning of what you need if you wish to become a veterinarian. A career in animal medicine requires years of education and training. Education Becoming a veterinarian requires a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (D. V.

The American Veterinary Medical Association, or AVMA, reports that there are 28 veterinary schools that meet accreditation standards set by the association’s education council. Before entering veterinary school, however, you should complete a bachelor’s degree from an accredited university. The U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that all veterinary schools require up to 90 undergraduate college hours for admission, but that some may not require a degree. However, because of the competitive nature of veterinary school admissions, applicants to veterinary school who do not have a bachelor’s degree place themselves at a disadvantage in gaining admission.

Beyond your dog’s weight gain or seeing her nipples grow in size, it is almost impossible for you to tell if your dog is pregnant without asking a vet to do a thorough examination. Expert breeders can often tell if their dogs are pregnant, but being experts, they are used to the signs and symptoms a dog reveals during pregnancy. To the untrained eye, it can be very difficult. We do recommend if you are going to breed your dog, make sure you breed it with the same breed of male dog to prevent mixed breed illnesses that can happen once the puppies are older. What to Expect During Dog Pregnancy Dog pregnancy is actually pretty much on the animal itself and if she’s done it before, she’ll be an old hat at it.

Although the term viticulturist is not commonly used in the United States to describe any specific job within the wine industry, many workers within the wine industry start their careers by obtaining a bachelor's degree in viticulture and enology. The expected salary of a viticulturist in the United States depends on a worker's specific job title, which ranges from enologists to cellar workers and winemakers. Enologist Enologists, sometimes spelled oenologists, are primarily responsible for blending different strains of grape to create the best wines possible.

As of 2011, \"\"Wine Business Monthly\"\" magazine reported that enologists in the United States reported a median salary of between $45,000 and $50,000, depending on the size of the winery at which they were employed. Enologists employed by mid-size wineries that produce between 50,000 and 99,999 cases of wine per year reported a median salary of $45,760 per year, while those at smaller and larger wineries reported median salaries of about $49,000 or $50,000 per year.

A crop wild relative is a plant species occurring in the \"\"wild\"\" that is the congener (species from which the crop was domesticated) or a closely related species (in the same genus) to a particular domesticated crop species. Crop wild relatives may contribute genetic material to the crop species, which may provide for increased disease resistance, fertility, crop yield or other desirable traits. Almost every species of plant that we humans have domesticated and cultivate has one or more crop wild relatives. Plant characteristics that are valuable to humans are selected for by breeding those that show these characteristics. During the process of domestication, changes occur in the genes (genotype) of the plant. How the plant looks on the outside (phenotype), and some of its internal processes are altered.

These deep fresh water lakes moderate the climate of the area delaying budding in the spring so as to prevent damage from late frost. At the end of the growing season, the lakes absorb heat and warm the surrounding area which results in an extended growing season. Winters are snowy and summers warm to 80 degrees. An Episcopal minister named William Warner Bostwick was the first to plant grapes in the region in 1829. He planted Vitus Labrusca, a grape native to the eastern United States. For a time wineries in the area produced sparkling wines and by the end of the 19th century 25,000 acres were planted."

The trouble is that the amount of resveratrol in a glass of wine (about one milligram’s worth) is minimal. You’d need to consume an undrinkable amount of wine to (hypothetically) activate sirtuin proteins, the proclaimed miracle workers and proteins that kick-start your metabolism and may extend your life. ( Preliminary studies suggest that sirtuin proteins may be activated by resveratrol. ) And now, evidence of resveratrol’s benefits is shakier than ever. Even in high concentrations, new research directly challenges the idea that resveratrol has anti-aging effects. In fruit flies, researchers couldn’t activate the sirtuin proteins with resveratrol. In worms, they saw the longevity effects disappear when controlling for other factors."

The name evokes a cottage in a peaceful countryside, set amid fields of lush vegetation, with birds and bees blissfully coasting on the late-summer breeze. Imagine hearing someone in the distance humming contentedly. ( Music lovers can imagine the Peer Gynt Suite by Edvard Grieg.) The scene slowly comes into focus as someone with a broad smile carefully bottles and corks a special elixir. Surely it must be a wine made from the bounty of the land. In the wine world, if you ask a viticulturist to define the word “fruit,” he or she would probably tell you it is “the grape.” The origin of the word “wine” is from the Latin word “vinum,” or vineyard. So a strict definition of wine is the fermented beverage made from grapes. But over the years the definition has been extended to include the juices of fruits and berries. “"

"text": "Identifying Grape Varieties When you next visit a vineyard, you will expect your guide (perhaps the winemaker, the viticulturist or cellar door manager) to distinguish between sections of the vineyard. Yet you may be impressed at how your guide is able to tell which rows of vines contain certain varieties of grapes, when all the vines look the same to you. Surely he/she could not have memorised and mapped out in his/her mind each and every rows of vines and their varieties? Indeed, to the trained eye, a quick look at the leaf shape enables identification of grape varieties. Each variety has a uniquely different shaped leaf, leaf size and feature. The task of identifying varieties was achieved by ampelographers Viala and Vermorel. They listed 5000 separated varieties. Today, DNA ‘fingerprinting’ has enabled the more accurate tracing of a variety’s parents. For example, the Zinfandel is now confirmed be related to an Italian variety the Primitivo from the South of Italy.

Barbaresco is an Italian wine made with the Nebbiolo grape. Barbaresco is produced in the Piedmont region in an area of the Langhe immediately to the east of Alba and specifically in the comune s of Barbaresco, Treiso and Neive plus that area of the frazione San Rocco Seno d'Elvio which was once part of the comune of Barbaresco and now belongs to the comune of Alba. It was granted Denominazione di origine controllata (DOC) status in 1966 and Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita status in 1980. The wine is often compared with Barolo —another Nebbiolo based wine from the Piedmont area. Though the wines do share many similarities, there are some distinct differences between them.

[ 1] Domizio Cavazza, a young and brilliant agronomist born in Modena, was named to be the founding director of Alba's Royal Enological School in 1881, and soon started to develop its passion for Barbaresco, which led to his purchase of a farm and a vineyard in 1886. He cultivated its vineyard with Nebbiolo and with a group of nine growers founded the Cantina Sociale, outfitted with barrels and winemaking equipment in order to produce what are considered the first wines to be officially called Barbaresco."

A zoologist studies the behavior, evolution, genetics, physiology and life processes of animals and wildlife in natural habitats and controlled environments. According to ONET Online, 52 percent of zoologists have a bachelor's degree in zoology, and 48 percent hold a graduate degree, which is particularly important for a career in college teaching or scientific research. A degree in zoology will prepare you to classify different types of animals, research animal populations, measure environmental effects on animals and recommend conservation practices. Prerequisites Preparation for a zoology career begins in high school with classes in biology, chemistry, algebra and physics. A background in science and math will prepare you to be successful in rigorous college courses. Paid or volunteer work with animals, marine life or birds can help you decide if a zoology career is right for you. According to the Association for Zoos and Museums, the work of a zoologist can be physically demanding and not particularly glamorous, as animal care can require long hours and detailed observations in harsh weather. General Education The Bureau of Labor Statistics suggests that in addition to science and math coursework, zoologists need excellent skills in communication, report writing, critical thinking, problem solving, observation and public speaking."

Most colleges offer zoology courses as part of education in the life sciences, but it is becoming less common for them to offer specific zoology degree programs, although some still do. An advanced zoology degree will require enrolling in a master’s degree or Ph. D. program in a field of natural science at a university. Degrees such as a Bachelor’s of Art or Science in Biology, Zoology, Wildlife Management, Environmental Policy, or Studies and Conservation are all good preparation for a career in zoology. Zoologists can work in a variety of sub-fields like research, education, conservation, veterinary medicine, resource management, and agriculture. While getting your bachelor’s degree, you will want to take courses that focus on animal biology, wildlife, or policy issues related to animals, depending on your interests. Talk to your professors to find out about the research they are doing and whether there are opportunities for students to get involved. You might look to local zoos, animal hospitals, and wildlife and animal rescue organizations to see if they have internship opportunities."

Zoologists may be general animal scientists, or they may specialize in a particular type of animal or particular parts of living creatures. As all scientists do, zoologists make observations, record their findings and analyze the data to better unlock the mysteries of life. A zoologist's pay depends in part on where he works and for whom. Average Pay The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported 18,380 zoologists working nationwide as of May 2011. These scientists earned an average annual wage of $61,880. The top 25 percent could earn $72,710 a year or more, with the best-paid 10 percent earning $94,070 a year or higher. The bottom 25 percent, on the other hand, earned $45,460 a year or less, with the lowest-paid 10 percent making $36,310 a year or lower. Government Work State and federal governments were the two largest employers of zoologists, according to the BLS. State governments employed 6,790 zoologists and paid them an average of $52,180 a year, while the U. S. government employed 4,600 zoologists at an average salary of $77,590 a year."

While construction jobs are among the more obvious ways to make good money outside of four walls, there are many other growing opportunities for fresh air employment. President Barack Obama has pledged to invest $150 billion over the next 10 years to advance green jobs, a boon for anyone with the desire to work outdoors. The areas that the President is emphasizing include creating the next generation of biofuels and fuel infrastructure, the development of commercial scale renewable energy, and the building of low emissions coal plants, all projects that will require an outdoor workforce to complete. Don't see the potential for green initiatives to increase the outdoor workforce yet? In addition to other projects, Obama has proposed a federal Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) that will require 25 percent of American electricity be derived from renewable sources by 2025, which alone has the potential to create hundreds of thousands of new jobs. Another Obama proposal is an extension of the Production Tax Credit, a credit used by American farmers and investors to increase renewable energy production and create new local jobs. Regardless of your political affiliation, the message is clear: Outdoor careers are a viable way to earn a living. Whether you want a job with great growth potential, a job that is off the beaten path or one that is just plain fun, there is truly something for everyone. We've compiled a list of great outdoor jobs and have organized a handy guide for those interested in these types of careers."

Anesthesiologists are medical doctors who specialize in the administration of anesthesia, putting patients to sleep for surgery, applying local anesthetics and sedating patients. After college, they go on to medical school, internship, residency and perhaps a medical fellowship, just as doctors in other specialties do. A variety of undergraduate degrees and programs may prepare students for future study in anesthesiology. Medical School Requirements Entry into medical school requires a good science background of undergraduate study. Specific coursework may vary depending upon the medical school, but most demand one year each of biology, anatomy and physiology, general chemistry, organic chemistry and physics along with one biochemistry class. Most of these sciences need laboratory components. You may also need specific math courses such as calculus and perhaps a genetics class. Since anesthesiologists must attend medical school, any majors that allow for these classes is appropriate at the undergraduate level since the coursework is more important than the specific major."

Anesthesia is given to patients to prevent them from experiencing pain during surgery, labor and delivery, and other medical procedures. Anesthesiologists monitor patients during surgery and adjust dosages of anesthesia when needed. Anesthesiologists must also be capable of making decisions about the proper anesthesia to administer for each patient and procedure, and be highly skilled in appropriate dosage amounts. Sometimes, anesthesiologists work with patients in pain management areas, administering pain medication to them. Anesthesiologists work side by side with surgeons, operating room nurses and other members of surgical teams. Generally, anesthesiologists are employed in hospitals, but many work in outpatient surgical facilities. Because anesthesiologists often work in hospitals, their hours can be varied. Emergency surgeries and labors and deliveries of babies can occur around the clock; therefore, an anesthesiologist might work nights, weekends, and holidays. When thinking about a career in anesthesiology, potential candidates should have excellent communication skills, since they will need to discuss procedures with patients who are often nervous about surgery."

AIU has made my son's disbursement dates so far apart any stipend he would be due would be eaten up by their \"\"additional\"\" costs. No he did not attend college to just receive a refund, my son is very serious about his education, but he was informed when he got help filling out his FAFSA that any money left over could be used for educational purposes such as a new computer. But to call, email or anything with the financial aid and to try and get a straight answer and not an answer that seems to be scripted or rehearsed. He then turned to his student advisor who did absolutely nothing but send him right over to the financial aid office who was not and is still not assisting him. AIU has been a big disappointment! In reviewing all correspondence my son has exchanged with the college I am now very suspicious of their financial aid department!

While a degree in accounting is meant to cover a diverse range of business functions across many industries, a finance degree takes a narrower approach. Financial accounting is separate from general accounting since it serves the decision makers outside of the organization, such as banks, government agencies, stockholders, and suppliers. A successful career in finance calls for a unique set of skills ideally suited to those who are outgoing and inquisitive by nature. Using your mathematical aptitude and abilities, you'll make suggestions to continue the financial growth of your organization or client based on their goals, resources, and options. Employment opportunities can be influenced by your GPA and previous professional experience. Types of Finance Degrees Finance degrees can be found at all degree levels and in a variety of settings. Over the last several years, online degrees in finance have become a popular way for business students and finance majors to earn the necessary credentials for securing employment within their chosen industry.

With programs busy crunching the numbers, accountants are now expected to take on a variety of responsibilities that previously lay outside the scope of their job description. This change was highlighted in a recent Forbes article describing how the modern conception of an accountant has become one of a trusted business advisor who interprets finances to guide “financial planning, analysis, forecasting, internal controls and decision support. ”This evolution poses a new set of challenges for undergraduate accounting majors looking to enter the field with either a Bachelor of Science (BS), a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) or a Bachelor of Accountancy (BAC). To become marketable job applicants, students must demonstrate not only a well-balanced curriculum, but also professional experience that grants an understanding of the role an accountant plays in the current business climate. Luckily for students, most accounting programs understand the skills that need to be imparted to an individual upon graduation, and they have adapted their curriculum to involve the broad spectrum of materials that should be covered.

"text": "What degree do I need to be a Marine Biologist? Terry Robinson | August 28, 2014Overview The term marine biologist refers to anyone who studies or works with animals or plants who live in salt water – from the tiniest microbes and plankton to the largest whales, and every species in between. These scientists are responsible for understanding marine life by studying the distribution, abundance and life histories of animals and plants in the sea, and how these aspects are governed by environmental factors. The study of marine biology includes a wide variety of disciplines such as astronomy, biological oceanography, cellular biology, chemistry, ecology, geology, meteorology, molecular biology, physical oceanography and zoology and the new science of marine conservation biology draws on many longstanding scientific disciplines such as marine ecology, biogeography, zoology, botany, genetics, fisheries biology, anthropology, economics and law. Thus, there are many specialties within the field of marine biology: Ichthyology- the study of fishes, both salt and freshwater species. Deep-sea ecology- the study of deep ocean gases as an alternate energy source, how animals of the deep live in the dark, cold, high pressure environment, deep sea hydrothermal vents and the lush biological communities they support. Environmental marine biology- the study of ocean health. It is important for scientists to determine the quality of the marine environment to ensure water quality is sufficient to sustain a healthy environment. Microbiology- the study of microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa and algae, is conducted for numerous reasons. One example is to understand what role microorganisms play in marine ecosystems."

A: As President and CEO of the Marine Conservation Institute my duties vary greatly. I serve as program manager for many of Marine Conservation Institute's projects, from assessing threats to deep-sea corals to identifying priority areas for conservation along the west coast of North America. I also supervise Marine Conservation Institute’s staff. I spend a lot of time reading, writing and corresponding with other scientists and conservationists, although I once spent a large amount of time underwater looking at marine life. My job keeps me mostly on dry land these days, but I am always looking for opportunities to go snorkeling, SCUBA diving or out to sea on research ships. Most of my work consists of analyzing conservation issues (such as destructive fishing practices like bottom trawling), working on solutions to ocean issues (such as marine protected areas) and making the science clear and understandable to managers and policy makers. I am often called on to give public lectures, science presentations or to speak with Congressmen and government officials on ocean conservation issues.

"text": "\"Education & Reference Higher Education (University +)I want to be a Zoologist what qualifications do I need? What Degree do I need to be one and what universities do the Degree course? How much does a Zoologist expect to earn? Thanks everyone Follow 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Most research zoologists work at universities where they teach classes in addition to conducting their own research. Others are employed by zoos, museums, government agencies, and private businesses. The average salary for biologists and related scientists, including zoologists, is somewhere between $55,000 and $70,000 a year. However, salaries can range from just under $30,000 to upwards of $100,000 a year, depending on the type of position the zoologist holds and his or her level of education. Zoologists with a bachelor’s degree earn the lowest salaries, while those who have a master's degree can make significantly more. With a Ph D, a zoologist can become the curator of a zoo, or obtain a research position at a university. University professors make about $66,000 a year on average, though they can make anywhere from $40,000 to $140,000 a year."

Universities Training/Educational Requirements: Master’s degree preferred Median Salary: $50,000 per year Job Prospects: Fair Job Description At the most fundamental level, a marine biologist works to research the sea and the life forms that dwell within it. There are varying degrees of work and specializations within marine biology. Marine biologists study not only the plants and animals that live in the ocean but also their habitat and how certain factors may affect them. Marine biologists work in a role where observation and research is a main focus. They conduct controlled experiments and observe how certain factors work within that environment. They may work strictly in this scientific-based role, or they may work on unscheduled rescue missions, using their knowledge of how sea creatures live and what they require. Marine biologists are considered to be experts in aquatics and are certainly subject-matter experts on different animals and plants that live in the sea. Because they perform research, marine scientists may conduct experiments and observations out in the field, at a specific site, or in their own laboratories for a more controlled environment. In addition to the research, biologists must perform any analysis and complete all necessary paperwork. In many instances, they must turn their observations into findings that can be used for a variety of different purposes and by a variety of different people."

In food marketing, topics such as test marketing, segmentation, positioning, branding, targeting, consumer research, and market entry strategy, for example, are highly relevant. In addition, food marketing involves other kinds of challenges--such as dealing with a perishable product whose quality and availability varies as a function of current harvest conditions. The value chain --the extent to which sequential parties in the marketing channel add value to the product--is particularly important. Today, processing and new distribution options provide increasing increasing opportunities available to food marketers to provide the consumer with convenience.

For many, advertising is the most familiar and visible element of the promotion mix. Because it can convey rich and dynamic images, advertising can establish and reinforce a distinctive brand identity. This helps marketers bond with customers and boost sales. Advertising is useful in communicating factual information about the product or reminding consumers to buy their favorite brand. Advertising sometimes suffers from a credibility problem because cynical consumers tune out messages they think are biased or are intended to sell them something they don’t need. Advertising can be expensive; therefore, firms need to take great care to ensure their messages are effective. Mass consumption and geographically dispersed markets make advertising particularly appropriate for marketing products using the same promotional messages to large audiences. Types of Advertising: Product Advertising Product advertising is an advertising message that focuses on a specific product.

In the contiguous United States, the South Atlantic region had the highest average monthly electric bill at $122.71, while the Pacific region (California, Oregon, and Washington) had the lowest. The EIA is the government agency responsible for the collection and dissemination of energy information. EIA conducts an annual survey of the electric power industry. Results from the survey are used to estimate the average residential monthly electric bill by state. The four categories of electric industry consumers tracked by the EIA are residential, commercial, industrial, and transportation. Residential consumers account for the largest share of electric industry sales at 37.2% with commercial consumers a close second at 35.9%."

Virgin Palm Oil is palm oil that is traditionally made and maintains the natural nutrients of carotenes (precursors to Vitamin A) and the antioxidant tocotrienols (Vitamin E). Typical RBD (Refined, Bleached, and Deodorized) palm oil has these nutrients stripped from them resulting in a clear oil. In its natural state, palm oil is red in color due to a high concentration of carotenes and tocols. Palm oil comes from a tropical palm tree (elaeis guineensis - NOT the same as coconut palm trees), which is native to the tropical areas of Africa, where it grows wild. It is a traditional oil used for more than 5000 years in African countries, where small-scale family farms flourish."

"text": "\"The Pros and Cons of Selling on Amazon and e Bayby Guest Contributor How to Sell Online5 minute read 36 comments At first glance, online marketplaces like Amazon and e Bay seem to be a creation of mutual benefit. Ecommerce store owners gain increased exposure for their products, and the marketplaces gain an expanded product range without having to increase inventory. On closer inspection, the mutual benefits remain, but the reality is more nuanced. Should you expand your presence beyond your online store and start selling your products on Amazon and e Bay? The answer is... it depends. A marketplace strategy may be a boon for some retailers and a bust for others. There are a lot of variables that need to be taken into consideration, including the type of products you sell, the intensity of competition in your category, marketplace fees and restrictions, and so on. There are, however, some pros and cons that apply across the board. In this post, we’ll explore those pros and cons, so you can make the decision of whether or not to sell on marketplaces well-informed of the upsides and the downsides.

A social worker is responsible for working with people of all ages who are in some way socially excluded, vulnerable or undergoing some level of crisis. A Social Worker's Role The role and duties of a social worker are broad and varied, but generally include the provision of guidance and support, in order to enable service users (the people they help) to eventually support themselves as much as possible. Social workers are employed in a variety of environments, with some working in schools, local education authorities and hospitals, and others working within voluntary organisations or in an individual's own home. Social work can be a stressful career, you need to be well organised as there is a significant level of administrative work - and time management skills are crucial. A social worker is expected to assess, review and maintain records of specific cases, all within certain timeframes whilst achieving set standards of care and providing service users and their families with the help they need. Personality Types The ideal social worker will be caring by nature, with an ability to empathise and communicate with those around them, particularly those who may be hard to deal with, such as the vulnerable and disaffected in society. You'll need to be fairly tough to cope with all this and you will also be up against many other organisations in trying to achieve the necessary help for those you are supporting. Studies undertaken by the British Association of Social Workers illustrate the high caseloads and stress levels experienced by many social workers.

Dave is his son Jack’s biggest soccer fan — you can tell by his boisterous presence on the sidelines. A former player, Dave knows what it takes to perform well, and he makes sure Jack never misses a practice. He runs drills with him on nonpractice days and monitors his diet to make sure he’s avoiding junk. After a bad game, Dave points out missed opportunities and revisits problem plays. Jack is a decent player, but his dad worries he won’t win a college scholarship if he doesn’t knuckle down. If you ask Dave why he’s so involved with Jack’s soccer career, he’ll tell you it’s because he loves his son and is willing to do anything to help him succeed. What Dave doesn’t realize is that his sense of self-worth, his very identity, has become linked to Jack’s success on the soccer field. Worse, Jack’s own sense of self-worth is slipping, becoming tied less to his own performance than to how his dad sees himself in him.

"text": "Careers That Don’t Suck Profile: Video Game Scriptwriter Posted on October 17, 2006 by careersthatdontsuck Job Title: Game Writer AKA: Game Script Writers, Screenwriters, interactive conversation writers What is it? A game writer is not the person who designs the visual effects or levels or the appearance of the characters. Instead, the game writer writes the dialogue spoken by the characters in a video, computer, mobile or PSP game. What does a Game Writer do? Much like TV writers, game writers are usually provided an outline of the game design—the “worldâ€, the characters, the object of the game—then they are expected to write dialogue to be used in-game, in cutscenes, missions and quests and in marketing material. Game writers may also be brought in very early in the game design and asked to create a narrative story—a sort of back-story and context–for the game, and to help create or humanize a character. Game writers may also be asked to help with the creation of the game bible, a database or guidebook of the game’s world, the characters that may be encountered in this world, the language, the weapons, the rewards, the relationships that matter to the characters. Finally, game writers may be asked to write manuals, marketing materials (packaging, trailers, etc) and/or to localize characters or parts of the game’s story so that it fits non-US or non-native markets. So that’s the big picture. Game writers seem a lot like TV or movie script writers if you go with this."

Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: You will need to get a Bachelor’s degree before you can start looking for work in the game industry, so as a high school student, your top priority should be getting the best grades you can and taking any college-prep courses your school offers, so that you can get into the best college possible, and be eligible for scholarships and grants. That said, there is some preparation you can do while in high school. First, however, you need to be sure you are clear on what you mean when you say “game design”. Outside the game industry, the word is used incorrectly fairly often. Within the game industry, “design” means the process of coming up with the details of the gameplay, using math and writing. There is no art in game design. There is no programming. Level building is a completely separate career. It's the designer's job to come up with the ideas for every tiny detail of the game, and communicate those ideas to the programmers, artists, testers, etc."

In recent years as the popularity of 3D animated movies and television shows has grown, so has the industry. Movies like “ The Croods ” and “ Cars ”, or “ Ice Age ” and “ The Incredibles ” are all examples of 3D animation. In the world of animation, there are two types of animators, 2D and 3D. Essentially, they do the same job. Both suggest new ideas, usually to a team, complete a certain amount of research to ensure their ideas are original and engaging, then render them on paper, or with the use of computer software. But, that’s where the similarities end. In simplest terms, 2D animators create flat images, which have width and height but no depth. 3D animation is more realistic because of the addition of depth."

We’ve been enamored with the virtual reality system since we first tried it at Mobile World Congress 2015. One year, and many beta versions later, the Vive is now available for anyone to buy. Where do I buy it, and how much does it cost? The Vive can be purchased on HTCVive.com, or through the Steam web store. It will set you back $800 (689 UK, 1149 CAD), plus $30 shipping in the United States. That’s a couple hundred more than the $600 Oculus Rift. However, the Vive comes with motion controllers and all the hardware needed to use them, while the Rift comes with an Xbox One controller. The Rift’s motion controllers will be sold later, at additional cost. The Vive is the most advanced VR headset you can buy, and it doesn’t come cheap."

"text": "An occupational therapy degree can be earned after attending a program at a college that offers degrees in occupational therapy. There are several degree options to consider, depending on the level at which someone wishes to practice, and there are also some alternative paths that can be pursued, such as online and low residency degree programs. In all cases, the goal of getting a degree in occupational therapy is to prepare for certification and satisfy training requirements. The most basic occupation therapy degree is an associate's degree, which will allow someone to assist a practicing occupational therapist. Associate's programs take two years, and they can be used to determine whether or not someone is interested in occupational therapy as a career before committing to more lengthy and expensive training. Bachelor's degrees in occupational therapy are also available. To practice, a master's in occupational therapy is usually the minimum degree requirement for certification. To get a master's degree, a student will need to complete undergraduate coursework in a biology, pre-med, or similar program. Students should make sure that they have physics, organic chemistry, human anatomy and physiology, psychology, and statistics courses on their transcripts, as these are often prerequisites for a master's programs. It is also a good idea to get work experience in an occupational therapist's office, as candidates for a degree need to demonstrate genuine interest, and they will need letters of recommendation from practicing occupational therapists, along with good test scores on the Graduate Record Exam (GRE)."

Occupational Therapy Requirements: Prerequisites If you're thinking about occupational therapy as a career, it's a good idea to take high school science and social science classes, such as psychology, health and biology. Because a college education is necessary for occupational therapists, it's also a good idea to take the SAT or the ACT, depending on what your colleges of interest accept. You should also consider volunteering at nursing care facilities, occupational or physical therapists' offices or other related healthcare environments. Occupational Therapy Requirements: Degrees and Coursework If you're interested in working in occupational therapy but want less career training, consider becoming an occupational therapist assistant or aide. Occupational therapist assistants help patients with exercises and everyday activities and chart their progress."

Although not all careers that focus on working with animals require college degrees, many do. According to the American Veterinary Medicine Association, veterinary schools are selective, and there is a lot of competition for such jobs as zookeepers, wild animal trainers or marine biologists. So getting a good education is vitally important. According to the ASPCA, students interested in working with animals should take pre-med courses in animal biology, animal nutrition and zoology. Biology Biology is the study of life and living organisms, such as plants and animals. In biology classes, you will learn about the structure of living things, including how they grow and reproduce. While biology classes don’t focus solely on animal life, you will take additional classes later that specialize in animals. According to the San Diego Zoo, becoming a zookeeper is competitive and requires individuals who have a background in a field such as biology. Zoology Zoology is a broad term, but these classes focus on animal life."

However, most employers prefer applicants with some focus of study in biology, animal science, veterinary-related science, or related fields. Employers also highly value direct animal care experience. For occupations associated with zoos, aquariums and animal parks, competition is extremely fierce, so formal education and hands-on experience become much more necessary. Other facilities that employ animal care workers are groomers, kennels, pet stores, shelters, veterinary facilities, stables and laboratories. More formal education or hands-on experience may be required for some jobs within the general area of animal care.

Animal caretakers in zoos or wildlife sanctuaries provide most daily care for the animals in their charge. This can include preparation of meals, administration of medication, and making daily observations of their behavior to look for any changes that could indicate the presence of a medical problem. Many will also arrange enrichment activities for the animals to keep them active. Jobs in this field usually require a Bachelor's of Science degree (B.

We cannot discourage this strongly enough. Chimpanzees are wild – not domestic – animals. They are a physical and financial liability. Owners are usually unaware of the lifetime commitment that is required when deciding to raise a chimpanzee. The chimpanzee may live as long as 50 years. The owner starts off as the caring “parent” to a tiny, helpless chimpanzee infant that is totally dependent on the surrogate parent - just as it would be on its biological mother. But by the age of five or six, the chimpanzee is too strong and clever to handle. As the chimpanzee grows - possessing up to seven times the strength of a human - it has to be locked away."

If you are a patient and caring person who loves animals and feels comfortable around them, you may want to explore the educational and career options within the field of veterinary science and animal care. Veterinary scientists, technologists and technicians, as well as obedience trainers and even pet groomers, play a vital role in the maintenance and healthcare of pets, zoo animals, and livestock. In addition to meeting the healthcare and maintenance needs of animals, some individuals working in veterinary science use their skills to research diseases that also affect humans. For example, veterinary research played a significant role in conquering diseases such as yellow fever and malaria, and in understanding human heart disease, organ transplant procedures, and a variety of drug therapies. Perhaps the most important thing to take into consideration is how you feel about animals. Though the field of animal care is exciting and rewarding, working with animals requires patience, compassion, flexibility and a lack of squeamishness. Appreciating and loving animals is not enough. You must be genuinely invested in and intrigued by animals' behaviors, physical systems, and habits. Animal specialists must not only promote the health and maintenance of the animals under their care, but they must also be able to lift and restrain animals, and risk exposure to sick or angry ones."

In a nutshell, sloths are slow-moving, nocturnal creatures that spend almost their entire life upside down in the trees. They eat, sleep, mate, and give birth from this position hanging high among the branches. Sloths are the only mammals whose hair grows in the opposite direction from the hair of other mammals.

For much of 2009, Boecker worked with a team of designers, architects, and engineers to design and build a state-of-the-art hippopotamus enclosure for the Milwaukee County Zoo (Wisconsin). The enclosure, which is called the Dohmen Family Foundation Hippo Home, is a 1,500-square-foot extension to the north end of the Milwaukee County Zoo’s pachyderm building. It was designed so that a 5,500-pound male hippo named Happy could travel from the National Zoo in Washington, D. C., to join Milwaukee’s two female hippos, Patti and Puddles. Construction started in April 2009 and ended September 2009, in time for Happy’s Sept. 29 arrival. The new facility was made possible by a $1.75 million donation to the Zoological Society of Milwaukee from the Dohmen Family Foundation. The new hippo home is considered Phase 1 of what is hoped to be a two-phase project. Phase 2 would include an outdoor underwater viewing exhibit that could hold up to four hippos. ("

However, you don't need \"\"perfect\"\" shooting form. In other words, your shooting form will never be 100%, and you don't want to be robotic. With that said, you'll never be a great shooter unless you have \"\"satisfactory\"\" form and mechanics. It's very common for players to have fatal flaws in their approach, and frankly they have no chance of becoming consistent shooters."

"text": "College Basketball Coaching Jobs College basketball has become one of the most popular spectator sports, specifically because of, what many term, “March Madness. ”This refers to the championship tournament held every March, that pits 65 teams, out of the 366 that compete at the Division 1 level, in a bracket that ultimately ends when the final two face off in early April. However, that is only a small portion of the teams that actually participate in college basketball. In addition to Division 1, there are two more NCAA divisions as well as the NAIA small school divisions. That is over 1,000 schools playing basketball (you can double that number if you include women’s teams as well) and all of them need head coaches and assistant coaches who have a knowledge of the game of basketball, as well as a solid foundation in fundamentals, to teach the young men and women in their charge how to play the game at the collegiate level. All college coaches must have a four-year degree in order to have chance at coaching, but many get their start as a graduate assistant (GA) where they take classes at the school where they are coaching, earning a graduate degree while learning the ins and outs of coaching. Search NCAA Job Openings Right Now Many have playing backgrounds, but not all do. The top level Division 1 coaches, especially such high profile people as Kentucky’s John Calipari, Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski, and Tom Izzo from Michigan State on the men’s side as well as Pat Summit from Tennessee and Geno Auriemma from Connecticut on the women’s side, earn in the $1.5 to $5 million range. However, most NCAA coaches, especially the ones at the lower division schools, make in the $200,000 to $300,000 range while assistants usually make anywhere from $35,000 to $100,000. A lot depends on the school they are coaching at, as well as the success of the program and the coach they are coaching under."

They need extensive understanding of their sports including the rules and regulations for college and professional level competition. Head college football coaches in 2012 were paid a median base salary of $267,800, according to the CUPAHR survey.

"text": "NCAA Rules – Definition of a Recruited Athlete Posted April 1, 2012How does the NCAA define whether a prospect is considered a recruited athlete? A prospect is considered a recruited athlete if the college takes one of the following actions: If they provide the prospect with an official visit. If they have an off-campus contact with the prospect or the prospect’s parents or legal guardians. If they offer the prospect a National Letter of Intent or an athletic scholarship agreement. If they initiate a telephone conversation with the prospect or his parents or legal guardians more than one time. Ironically, a coach can have frequent e-mail conversations with a prospect but that athlete will still not be defined as a recruited athlete if the coach does not use any of the four actions above to encourage the prospect to attend the college and join their athletic program.

"text": "\"Thumb on Shooting Hand Players often have the ball sit on the tip of their thumb on their shooting hand. This position is awkward and forces the body to strain to hold the proper shooting form. In order to be a good shooter, you have to be comfortable. It you don't strain, your elbow sticks too far out. How do you fix it? You need to have the ball rest on the side of the thumb rather than on the tip of the thumb on every shot. It may feel awkward at first, but it will help tremendously and more of your shots will travel to the dead-center of the rim. If you can not determine when you are doing this, you may need to have someone critique your shot or video tape it. Thumb on Guide Hand Some players flick the ball with their thumb on the guide hand when shooting the basketball. This will cause serious problems for the shooter and the ball will often spray left and right."

Your $15 per hour cleaning job gives you about $30,000 a year. How meaningful is it to say that in this office the average salary is slightly over $1.5 million? A similar issue attaches to the concept of an \"\"average salary\"\" for basketball coaches. What \"\"average\"\" is depends upon the prominence of the basketball program, the program's division (I, II or III) and the coach's gender. Average Salaries Salaries range widely among college basketball coaches. Even among the coaches at Division I schools whose teams made it to the 2017 NCAA tournament, salaries range from former Louisville coach Rick Pitino's $7,769,200 to North Dakota coach Brian Jones' $109,273. When the salaries of coaches at smaller schools are taken into account, the average is probably not more than $100,000. Even then, that average is skewed higher by the almost surrealistically high salaries of the 40 top-paying NCAA schools, all of which pay their head basketball coaches $1 million or more. Salaries for available coaching jobs listed by Glassdoor for three mid-size colleges ranged from a little over $30,000 to $60,000."

By ZACH SCHONBRUN MARCH 6, 2015289Syracuse Coach Jim Boeheim will be suspended for the first nine Atlantic Coast Conference games in the 2015-16 season. Gerry Broome/Associated Press Members of the athletic staff forged classwork. Players were handed cash for appearances as volunteers. Others were allowed to skirt the university’s drug policy without consequence. Those infractions and dozens more involving a storied program and a Hall of Fame coach were laid out on Friday in a 94-page report by the N. C. A. A., exposing some of the most widespread and damning transgressions in college basketball in years. The credentials of Syracuse University’s coach, Jim Boeheim, whose 966 career victories to date ranked second only to Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski, are suddenly being scrutinized after the N. C. A. A., in a series of investigations that lasted close to eight years, found a pattern of severe violations that stretch back more than a decade. “As I expressed at the Committee on Infractions hearing, I acknowledge that violations occurred within the men’s basketball program, and as the head coach of the program, I take those violations very seriously,” Mr. Boeheim said Friday in a statement. “ That being said, I am disappointed with many of the findings and conclusions as stated in the infractions report. The committee chose to ignore the efforts which I have undertaken over the past 37 years to promote an atmosphere of compliance. ”The N. C. A. A. accused Syracuse of a lack of institutional control over its teams — a stunning rebuke that was aimed mostly at the men’s basketball team, a bedrock program in Central New York that fills the largest on-campus basketball arena in the country, the Carrier Dome."

Learn how to out maneuver your competition!Are You A Good Ballhandler? Ballhandling Coordination One of the most basic, yet most important aspects of basketball is the ability to effectively handle the ball. Some of the most prolific masters of this art were the great Magic Johnson, and of course, the Harlem Globetrotters! To be a top-flight ballhandler (which is key to being a great point guard) one must be able to survey the floor while handling the ball. The ballhandler cannot afford to be concerned with whether he/she is going to be able to control the ball at high speeds especially while running a break. Everyone on the team relies on the ballhandler to get the ball down the floor and be the catalyst toward making something happen for the team. If you cannot handle the rock, then go back to the drawing board because the better you are, the more effective you are, the bigger asset you are to the team, and the more your teammates are going to want the ball in your hands!A classic rule of life applies here: if you can handle two of something, then mastering one thing will be much easier. In other words, if you can handle two balls at high speeds while keeping your eyes looking ahead, handling one will be a piece of cake. Drill Stand at one end of the court."

Cohen had the largest scoring jump (12.1 points) from one year to the next in program history. Under Fleming's tutelage, Cohen was Second Team All-Horizon League in 2016-17 and led the conference while ranking 12th in the NCAA in field goal percenage (60.1). She mentored another post player, Haleigh Ristovski, who ranked ninth in the NCAA in defensive rebounds per game (8.2) as a junior before finishing No. 6 in the country in defensive rebounding (7.6) as a senior. Detroit Mercy went 9-0 in league home games in 2016-17 en route to a 12-6 HL mark and 18-14 overall record. The Titans topped nationally-ranked Green Bay during the regular season and defeated Cleveland State and Wright State in the Horizon League Championship to reach the title game. For the second-straight season, Detroit Mercy broke the school record for 3-pointers made in a season (259), while setting new school marks for defensive rebounds (943) and defensive rebounds per game (29.4)."

"text": "Home »Salary Insights »More Salary Information Salary for an Assistant Basketball Coach in the NBABy Marie Gentile; Updated July 05, 2017VIPDesign USA/i Stock/Getty Images Head coaches in the NBA don’t work alone -- they rely on a team of assistant coaches to help them strategize, instruct players and condition the team for success. Assistant coaches are commonly called up from the minor league, or D-League, where they may have served as head coaches. Some former NBA players also turn to assistant coaching after they retire from game play. While it’s common for head coaches to earn seven-figure salaries, assistant coaches are often paid significantly less. Average Salary The NBA does not disclose coaching salaries for either head or assistant coaches. However, assistant coaches most likely aren’t securing the multimillion dollar contracts of their head coaching counterparts, according to a 2008 USA Today article. The Bureau of Labor Statistics does not compile information specifically for NBA assistant coaches, but it does show that the average salary for all coaches and scouts at the college, university or professional level was $51,550 as of May 2013. This may be on par with the average salary of an NBA assistant coach. For example, when New Orleans Pelicans assistant coach Bryan Gates was called up from the D-League to become assistant coach for the Sacramento Kings, his starting salary was about $50,000, according to CBSSports.com. Highest-Paid Assistant Coaches While the NBA does not release salary data, information about some of the highest-paid assistant coaches has made its way to the media."

"text": "Tweet Neurology is a medical discipline that focuses on the study and treatment of conditions related to the nervous system. A neurologist is a medical physician that specializes in neurology and has received intense training on examining, diagnosing, and treating a variety of neurological conditions. What does a neurologist do? Neurologists are experts in treating disorders and diseases affecting the nervous system. They perform neurological examinations and administer tests to diagnose problems related to the brain, spinal cord, central nervous system, and related muscles and tissue. They perform many different tests including Computed Axial Technology (CAT) scans and Magnetic Resource Imaging (MRI). They review the medical history of the patient and discuss test results and treatment options. Neurologists also participate in research to gain a better understanding of the neurological conditions and develop new treatment options. They work with patients with many different conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, brain trauma, stroke, multiple sclerosis, and epilepsy. Those interested in the more human and behavioral aspects of neurology may be well suited to careers in research psychology or psychiatry."

I am discussing the worst case scenarios for people with aggressive, progressive MS, and what may be referred to as late-stage MS. This is in response to the recent Multiple Sclerosis.net MS in America survey and what the respondents asked for in additional information. When I began writing about multiple sclerosis, a common question from the newly diagnosed had the theme of ‘am I going to die from my MS?” I would answer quite earnestly – MS won’t kills us. The life expectancy for someone with multiple sclerosis is very similar to the general population and the leading cause of death for people with MS is heart disease, cancer and stroke, according to the MS Foundation. They point out that MS affects the quality of life but not the quantity. 1I was challenged by more reading, research, and some other people with multiple sclerosis to rethink my answer. While MS technically is not a killer by itself (except in rare circumstances), it can cause enough problems and symptoms with complications that can be fatal, and multiple sclerosis can at the very least be named an accomplice in death for some people. The majority of people with MS will live a life about the same length as their peers, but there is the small percentage of people, estimated at 10-15%, who will have a very aggressive form with a high degree of disability."

By Fred Decker; Updated July 05, 2017Dynamic Graphics Group/Dynamic Graphics Group/Getty Images Disorders of the brain and nervous system can have subtle and far-reaching consequences, ranging from headaches and uncontrolled mood swings to gradual, chronic loss of mobility. Neurologists are the specialized physicians who treat these conditions, diagnosing the root cause of the patient's symptoms and drawing up a plan of care. Despite the profound importance of their work, neurologists aren't among the highest-earning physicians. Industry magazine \"\"Modern Healthcare\"\" collects and reviews a number of physician salary surveys each year for a special issue on physician compensation. In the 2012 issue, those 15 salary surveys reported average salaries for neurologists ranging from a low of $209,394 to a high of $380,275. The highest figure, reported by Delta Physician Placement, was significantly above the rest. No other survey reported an average neurologist salary of more than $300,000 a year, and eight of the 15 reported averages of between $250,000 and $280,000. Insights Some surveys provide specific insights into neurologists' compensation. Recruiting firm Merritt Hawkins' 2011 report showed an average salary offer of $256,000 for neurologists, from a range as low as $160,000 and as high as $345,000."

Many neurologists work in hospitals, and though health and safety precautions are taken, there is some risk of exposure to infectious diseases while working in any medical setting. Doctors who work in hospitals commonly work more than 40 hours a week and often during irregular hours of the day. The potential for high income is present in this career. It can be emotionally and physically challenging, but there is great reward in improving peoples' health and saving peoples' lives.

"text": "\"Foot drop: making sense of its causes June 11, 2008 February 4, 2015 braindiseases A common problem for which patients consult neurologists like me is foot drop. As the name says, they have foot drop and hence are unable to dorsiflex their foot. As a result they are likely to catch their foot on the ground while walking and thus are prone to falls and this brings them to medical attention. Foot drop should be differentiated from frail foot. In foot drop, patients are unable to dorsiflex their foot while those who have a frail foot are unable to dorsiflex as well as unable to planter flex the foot (that is they are unable to pull their foot up or push down their foot as when you press down on a gas pedal). Foot drop might occur suddenly (acutely) or may be more insidious and the causes for both vary. Before we discuss the causes of foot drop, it is helpful to know a little about the relevant anatomy. The muscle which helps to dorsiflex the foot is called tibialis anterior and it is supplied by a nerve called the peroneal nerve. The peroneal nerve is a branch of the sciatic nerve. The sciatic nerve is formed by the lower lumbar and sacral nerve roots and forms a part of the lumbosacral plexus."

According to research published in October 2014, the average annual salary for a neurologist stands at $230,000, though at least 50% of neurologists currently employed will be earning less. According to the research those in the bottom 10% of earners were only achieving a salary of $173,000 per year, which could be because they are working in an entry level position, or indeed in a quiet, rural area. Those in the top 10% of earners were shown to be achieving an annual salary of $308,000 which would be appropriate for a neurologist in a densely populated metropolitan area with many years of training and experience behind them. Hourly Income Most statistics are based on an individual working a standard forty hour week, though in the medical profession this is rarely the case.

There are a number of unavoidable issues when dealing with the symptoms of autonomic neuropathy many of which are covered in Dr. Norman Latov’s book Peripheral Neuropathy: When the Numbness, Weakness, and Pain Won’t Stop,Autonomic neuropathy is a result of damage to the autonomic nerves which control your involutary body functions that keep you alive. These functions include the cardiac cycle (heart beat), pulmonary systems (breathing), bladder function, and digestion. It also affects the body’s ability to regulate temperature, tearing, sexual functions, blood pressure, saliva production, and swallowing among other body systems that function automatically. In the process of dealing with autonomic neuropathy symptoms for more than half my life I have developed the most affective ways for me, personally to deal with some of the symptoms of autonomic neuropathy.

That being said, and having dealt with each of the symptoms below, here are some practical ideas which have worked best for me in dealing with my autonomic neuropathy symptoms: Rule #1: From Dr. Latov’s book, “ Do not OVER treat your autonomic neuropathy symptoms. ” This is great advice when dealing with alternating diarrhea and constipation while trying to find a balance. ( Books on Peripheral Neuropathy)Diarrhea – Simple advice eat smaller and more frequent meals with lower fat and carbohydrates helps. Of course doing what your mother taught you, drink lots of fluid especially coke in moderation, eat bananas, while increasing intake of salads are all natural approaches that work."

"text": "\"What Skills Are Needed to Become a Neurologist?by Mary Jane; Updated September 26, 2017A neurologist is a medical doctor with a specialization in the diagnosis and treatment of the human nervous system. Although a neurologist does not perform surgery, specific skills are needed, as the work completed by a neurologist is used by neurosurgeons that do perform brain surgery to improve the nervous system or cure diseases of the brain. Communication Neurologists work closely with patients to diagnose and treat clinical disorders of the human nervous system. This includes the brain, nerves and spinal cord. A neurologist must be able to communicate effectively, as patients may simply feel bad without knowing why. The doctor must ask questions about headaches, sleep disorders, old spinal or brain injuries or nerve disorders to determine the root cause of the pain or problems of the patient. Since some patients may feel uncomfortable, friendly communication is a must. Administrative Skills A neurologist must have administrative skills, including basic reading and writing skills. Neurologists must update patients’ files and update any progressions made by the patients during treatment. The neurologist must also have excellent writing skills, since he may be writing a patient’s condition down to a neurosurgeon who will be conducting surgery on the patient."

Follow 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: A neurologist is a physician specialty. You need a 4 year degree (can be anything but bio or chem will help you more in medical school). Then, you take the MCAT, apply to medical school, and hopefully get in. During med school you need great grades and good board scores to get the residency of your choice. Upon graduation from medical school, you will have hopefully matched to a neurology residency, and I'm pretty sure that one is at least 4 years (but you do get paid starting with your residency. So, to sum up. 4 years college, 4 years medical school, and then a 4+ year residency where you will get paid roughly $45,000 depending on where you are.

"text": "\"Share this: Tweet Share on Tumblr More Chiropractic is a diverse collection of beliefs and practices occurring under a broad regulatory label. The differences among various chiropractics are so stark that it is difficult to make general statements about chiropractic practice. At one end of the spectrum, however, are so-called “straight” chiropractors who adhere to the original philosophy of D. D. Palmer – that a vital force they call innate intelligence is response for health, and blockages in the flow of this magical force through the nerves are what cause illness. Such chiropractors believe they can influence non-neuromuscular conditions by restoring the flow of innate blocked by mysterious “subluxations” in the spine. From chiropractors.org we have this definition of “straight” chiropractors: Because straight chiropractors believe that nearly all diseases are caused by issues with the spine, they don’t believe they need any diagnostic tools. Traditional testing done by medical doctors and hospitals is not even considered by a straight chiropractor as being necessary. Diagnosis is done by finding the subluxations in the spine so that those can be corrected. This particular version of chiropractic (by some estimates about a third of chiropractors follow this philosophy) is pure pseudoscience. It is, as indicated by the quote above, hostile to science-based medicine. After a century of such belief there isn’t a bit of evidence to support the notion of innate intelligence, chiropractic subluxations, or health benefits from this approach."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search The basic requirement for pharmacists to be considered for registration is an undergraduate or postgraduate pharmacy degree from a recognized university. In many countries, this involves a four- or five-year course to attain a master of pharmacy degree (MPharm). In the United States of America, students graduating after January 1, 2003, must complete a doctor of pharmacy degree to become a licensed pharmacist. This same requirement has been coming into place in other countries such as Canada and France. The doctor of pharmacy degree requires completion of four years at an accredited college of pharmacy (most students applying for admission into a college of pharmacy already have an undergraduate degree). However, many schools admit students after completion of two or three years of undergraduate pharmacy prerequisites or directly from high school into a six-year accelerated program). Any person holding a bachelor's degree in pharmacy who graduated before this date is grandfathered in and can register for a license. To practice as a pharmacist, registration with the country, state or province's regulatory agency is required. There is often a requirement for the pharmacy graduate to have completed a certain number of hours of experience in a pharmacy under the supervision of a registered pharmacist. If the regulatory body governs an entire country, they will usually administer a written and oral examination to the prospective pharmacist prior to registration."

Students considering a career in the pharmaceutical sciences must first complete an undergraduate education lasting 2 to 4 years. It typically takes 4 years to finish pharmacy school and earn the professional doctorate called the Pharm. D., or Doctor of Pharmacy. It is possible to become a pharmacist in as few as 6 years with an associate’s degree, but the more common timeline is 8 years, including 4 years as a bachelor candidate and 4 years in professional pharmacy training. However, the longer the training is, the higher the average pharmacist salary will be ( more about that ). Undergraduate Coursework At this time, a 4-year bachelor’s degree is not a standardized requirement for getting into pharmacy school, though it is now mandatory at many popular institutions. The length of the undergraduate period thus partly depends on which degree program one wishes to attend. The specific undergraduate coursework requirements vary by school, but typically these comprise a broad-based science education."

While responsibilities vary among the different areas of pharmacy practice, the bottom line is that pharmacists help patients get well. Pharmacists practice in nearly all areas and specialties in healthcare – sometimes behind the scenes and not obvious to the public eye, but as the medication expert on the healthcare team, pharmacists are necessary in all facets of healthcare. Pharmacist responsibilities include a range of care for patients, from dispensing medications to monitoring patient health and progress to optimize their response to medication therapies. Pharmacists also educate patients on the use of prescriptions and over-the-counter medications, as well as provide population based care in institutional settings. Pharmacists educate and advise physicians, nurses, and other health professionals on medication therapy decisions.

Speech Language Pathology Assistant Though you won’t have the education necessary to call yourself a pathologist, you can still work with licensed pathologists and get some real-world experience in the field of communication disorders. Depending on the state you live in, you might be called an aide rather than an assistant, but in either case you will be performing specific tasks with a limited amount of clinical responsibility. Assistant duties can include documenting patient progress, helping with patient assessment and maintaining equipment.

The average salary is just over $44,000 per year, which is not as high as most would expect. Nevertheless, salary is on the increase and different areas of social work earn more. Image Source Becoming a Social Worker Before looking at the best & highest paying social work careers, it is important to understand the field of social work itself. Generally speaking, you will need at least a bachelor's degree to be able to work in this field, with most states even requiring a master's degree. But there are a few states that allow an associate's degree in the field of social work as well. Naturally, the higher your education, the higher your salary too. And, indeed, it is the very disparity in requirements between states that is causing the average salary of social workers to appear quite low, as many earn well above this. So what are the top 7 best and highest paying social work careers that you can choose from aside from the general social worker?1. School Counselors School Counselors are often social workers."

"text": "\"Gifted Kids Nurturing Talents How to Not Argue With Your Gifted Child By Carol Bainbridge Updated July 12, 2017Share Pin Email Print Ruth Jenkinson/Dorling Kindersley Collection/Getty Images Gifted children, especially the verbally gifted ones, are often compared to lawyers: they argue as if they are in court. The case they are usually arguing is their own. They argue about rules, about punishment, discipline, bedtime, dinner. Basically, they'll argue about nearly anything they don't like or they want to avoid. Although a gifted child can make excellent arguments, it's important for parents to make sure they remain in charge. No matter how bright a child is, he or she is still a child, and children, even the gifted ones, need guidance. They need rules and they need consequences when they break those rules. Gifted children should never be excused from bad behavior because they make a good case for having broken a rule. If children can talk their way out of the consequences for bad behavior, they, not their parents, end up being in control.

"text": "Creationist Noah’s Ark Theme Park Incites Protests, Criticism By Shafaq Hasan | July 13, 2016Share 1K Share Tweet 4 Email1KNoah’s Ark diorama from the Creation Museum in Kentucky / Joseph Novak July 12, 2016; Lexington Herald-Leader Noah may have escaped the Biblical great flood on his larger-than-life ark, but the 500-foot, $100 million replica of Noah’s Ark in Williamstown, Kentucky may not escape the wrath of “Bill Nye the Science Guy” or those in the nonprofit sector who balk at the idea of the creationist theme park. Six years in the making, Answers in Genesis, a nonprofit fundamentalist ministry, opened the Christian theme park “ Ark Encounter ” last week. According to ministry president and CEO Ken Ham, the Biblical story is factually true, the earth is only 6,000 years old, and the attraction will serve as a tool to help spread the theory of creationism, which scientists have widely and ardently discredited. “I believe this is going to be one of the greatest Christian outreaches of this era in history,” said Ham. The feature also includes exhibits on Noah, the flood, and the animals, including the dinosaurs that were brought on the ark. According to the museum’s website, there are also exhibits on how the Biblical ark would have been able to support and care for its inhabitants. Some initial criticism toward the project cited that the museum would steer the public inaccurately away from science education, not unlike the several other creationist museums around the country. ( Answers in Genesis operates the Creation Museum in Cincinnati, as well.) Indeed, Bill Nye, well known for his dedication to science education and his ’90s TV show, “Bill Nye The Science Guy,” visited the park earlier this week with Ham, who documented the trip on his Facebook page. “Bill challenged me about the content of many of our exhibits, and I challenged him about what he claimed and what he believed,” wrote Ham."

ADVERTISEMENTSince its announcement in 2010, the ark project has rankled opponents who say the attraction will be detrimental to science education and shouldn't have won state tax incentives. \"\" I believe this is going to be one of the greatest Christian outreaches of this era in history,\"\" said Ken Ham, president of Answers in Genesis, the ministry that built the ark. Ham said the massive ark, based on the tale of a man who got an end-of-the-world warning from God about a massive flood, will stand as proof that the stories of the Bible are true. The group invited media and thousands of supporters for a preview Tuesday, the first glimpse inside the giant, mostly wood structure. \"\" People are going to come from all over the world,\"\" Ham said to thousands of people in front of the ark. The ark will open to the public Thursday and Ham's group has estimated it will draw 2 million visitors in its first year, putting it on par with some of the big-ticket attractions in nearby Cincinnati. The group says the ark is built based on dimensions in the Bible. Inside are museum-style exhibits: displays of Noah's family along with rows of cages containing animal replicas, including dinosaurs. The group believes that God created everything about 6,000 years ago — man, dinosaur and everything else — so dinosaurs still would've been around at the time of Noah's flood."

Brilliant in math and science, Nye's mother was recruited to become a codebreaker during World War II.

"text": "What does a mechanical engineer do? Mechanical engineering is the broadest of all engineering disciplines, and our graduates have the versatility required to pursue careers in aerospace, acoustics, energy, data, and more. Mechanical engineering requires creativity and a wide range of math and science knowledge, which you will apply to find solutions with the opportunity to work with almost all technologies. Simply put, mechanical engineers work with the design and development of machines, from researching to testing to operations. Those machines, most often, are for manufacturing, materials, generating energy and distributing it, and environmental solutions, including tooling and tools for the oil service industry, under water remotely operated vehicles, machines for medical diagnostics, car engines, jet engines, turbine generators, plant piping/process systems, and air conditioning systems. A degree in mechanical engineering provides opportunities across the globe, because innovation and useful design are needed everywhere. Famous mechanical engineers include Henry Ford, Nikola Tesla, James Watt, Karl Benz, Eli Whitney, and Bill Nye. Want to know if this major is a good fit for you?

"text": "Bill Nye (Image via You Tube)B ill Nye is supposed to be “the science guy.” Recently he published a video on You Tube purporting to inform viewers of what science tells us about abortion. Nye claims that laws against abortion reflect “a deep scientific lack of understanding.” But it turns out that it is Nye himself who doesn’t understand the science. “ I really encourage you to look at the facts,” he says. But then he misrepresents the facts from top to bottom in an embarrassingly transparent effort to hijack science in the cause of pro-abortion ideology. Nye’s video is so breathtakingly arrogant and incompetently argued that it is hard to know where to begin. He opens by saying: “Many, many, many, many more hundreds of eggs are fertilized than become humans. Eggs get fertilized, and by that I mean sperm get accepted by ova — a lot.” The fact he is pointing to here — the high rate of pre-implantation spontaneous abortions (estimates range from 45 percent to as high as 70 percent) — is the only bit of science Nye ever mentions in the video."

Nye’s quirky, off-beat, after-school PBS show achieved no small feat: It made kids laugh and got them to appreciate science — and they didn’t even realize they were learning. While most Bill Nye-fans — myself included — enjoyed his wacky experiments and corny jokes, few if any realized there was another side to Bill, one that he didn’t start unveiling until just the past few years: Nye advocates a hardline, intolerant, and divisive materialistic worldview view that stands diametrically opposed to the values shared by most Americans. In 2010 he was named “Humanist of the Year” by the American Humanist Association. In his acceptance speech, he explained his deeply nihilistic views: I’m insignificant. … I am just another speck of sand. And the earth really in the cosmic scheme of things is another speck. And the sun an unremarkable star. … And the galaxy is a speck. I’m a speck on a speck orbiting a speck among other specks among still other specks in the middle of specklessness."

"text": "At 7:00 p.m. tonight Bill Nye, best known as “Bill Nye the Science Guy,” will be debating Ken Ham in what is being called by some “Scopes 2,” a reference to the famous “Scope’s Monkey Trial,” a 1925 trial in which a teacher was accused of violating the law by teaching his classes about evolution. However, the debate is actually entitled Is Creation a Viable Model of Origins? Bill Nye – Ken Ham Debate. Bill Nye is well known to the American public, having starred in a hugely-successful educational program called Bill Nye, the Science Guy . In this show, which gathered a collection of 18 Emmys during its five years on the air, he taught science to preteens. Although he has done other work since, and remains active in the scientific community, the show is still what he is best known for. While Nye is quite famous for his work as a science educator and television host, Ham is perhaps less well known among the American public, leaving many to ask just who he is and why is he debating one of America’s best-loved figures in popular science? Ken Ham is perhaps uniquely qualified to represent the side of creationism in this debate. He is, first of all, the founder of the Creation Museum. The Creation Museum is a 70,000-square-foot facility located in Petersburg, Kentucky dedicated to bringing to life the literal story of creationism depicted in the Bible."

This is follow-up story to our post of a few days ago where we learned that Syrians are arriving in the Triad area of North Carolina. Resettlement contractor World Relief/Evangelicals expects 30-100 this next year (the fiscal year begins October 1). Refugees are not self-sufficient in 90 days as World Relief says below, but have been connected to “services.” See our fact sheet for the list of social services (aka welfare) available to refugees. They will be deemed self-sufficient even as they remain on most forms of welfare. Our top post for the last six days is this one about the State Department spokesperson’s comment that thousands of Syrians had been selected by the UN for resettlement to the US. The largest percentage will be Sunni Muslims. From the Winston-Salem Journal: Organizations such as World Relief and Church World Service work with the U. S. State Department to resettle refugees from around the world.

Cheapest-This is easy. Between Thanksgiving and X-mas with the exception of the 10 or so days the Rodeo is in town. Most Expensive-Typically NY's and most of the month March (march madness, Spring Break and NASCAR).

"text": "At 7:00 p.m. tonight Bill Nye, best known as “Bill Nye the Science Guy,” will be debating Ken Ham in what is being called by some “Scopes 2,” a reference to the famous “Scope’s Monkey Trial,” a 1925 trial in which a teacher was accused of violating the law by teaching his classes about evolution. However, the debate is actually entitled Is Creation a Viable Model of Origins? Bill Nye – Ken Ham Debate. Bill Nye is well known to the American public, having starred in a hugely-successful educational program called Bill Nye, the Science Guy . In this show, which gathered a collection of 18 Emmys during its five years on the air, he taught science to preteens. Although he has done other work since, and remains active in the scientific community, the show is still what he is best known for. While Nye is quite famous for his work as a science educator and television host, Ham is perhaps less well known among the American public, leaving many to ask just who he is and why is he debating one of America’s best-loved figures in popular science? Ken Ham is perhaps uniquely qualified to represent the side of creationism in this debate. He is, first of all, the founder of the Creation Museum. The Creation Museum is a 70,000-square-foot facility located in Petersburg, Kentucky dedicated to bringing to life the literal story of creationism depicted in the Bible."

Asked about the heated rhetoric surrounding the climate change debate, such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s previous comments that some climate skeptics should be prosecuted as war criminals, Mr. Nye replied, “We’ll see what happens. ”“Was it appropriate to jail the guys from Enron?” Mr. Nye asked in a video interview with Climate Depot’s Marc Morano. “ We’ll see what happens. Was it appropriate to jail people from the cigarette industry who insisted that this addictive product was not addictive, and so on?”“In these cases, for me, as a taxpayer and voter, the introduction of this extreme doubt about climate change is affecting my quality of life as a public citizen,” Mr. Nye said. “ So I can see where people are very concerned about this, and they’re pursuing criminal investigations as well as engaging in discussions like this. ”Mr. Nye ’s comments come with a coalition of liberal attorneys general pursuing companies that challenge the consensus of catastrophic climate change."

S. and Japan was that this posting would go to Harvard professor Joseph Nye, a specialist in international affairs. Instead, the job went to Roos, a Silicon Valley lawyer and one of Obama’s key fundraisers, who has no background in international diplomacy and does not speak Japanese. Media reports have indicated that Japanese officials were not happy with Obama’s choice of Roos over Nye, whose expected nomination was published in Japanese newspapers. The government in Tokyo is concerned that the new administration is putting more emphasis on the United States’ relationship with China, at the expense of its longtime regional ally. One Japanese paper noted how Obama personally introduced the new ambassador to Beijing (Jon Huntsman), while Roos’ selection was lumped in with a dozen other nominations announced via a press release. The son of college administrators, Roos was born on February 14, 1955. He grew up in San Francisco and graduated from Lowell High School in 1973. He attended college at Stanford University, from which he graduated Phi Beta Kappa with honors and distinction with a bachelor’s degree in 1977.

Photograph by MICHAEL FORSBERG, National Geographic Creative The temperature of the earth is rising at nearly twice the rate it was 50 years ago. This rapid rate and pattern of warming, scientists have concluded, cannot be explained by natural cycles alone. The only way to explain the pattern is to include the effect of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted by humans. To come to a conclusion on climate change, the United Nations formed a group of scientists called the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, or IPCC. The IPCC meets every few years to review the latest scientific findings and write a report summarizing all that is known about global warming. Each report represents a consensus, or agreement, among hundreds of leading scientists. Causes and Effects of Climate Change What causes climate change (also known as global warming)?

( self.gravesdisease)submitted 4 years ago by Rose Feather I was just diagnosed a couple months ago, sort of by accident. I've had thyroid nodules being monitored for a couple years, and this last time my bloodwork came back showing subclinical hyperthyroidism. So, my TSH is pretty low, but my T3 and T4 are both in the normal range and I have no symptoms (so far). My endo wanted to run a test for Grave's just in case, and lo and behold it came back positive. For now all that's being done is monitoring until something changes. From what I've read it seems like it's really unusual to be diagnosed this early, so I don't know if I'll be able to get an answer on this, but I'm wondering what kind of progression I can expect. Months? Years?"

"text": "\"Gifted Kids Nurturing Talents How to Not Argue With Your Gifted Child By Carol Bainbridge Updated July 12, 2017Share Pin Email Print Ruth Jenkinson/Dorling Kindersley Collection/Getty Images Gifted children, especially the verbally gifted ones, are often compared to lawyers: they argue as if they are in court. The case they are usually arguing is their own. They argue about rules, about punishment, discipline, bedtime, dinner. Basically, they'll argue about nearly anything they don't like or they want to avoid. Although a gifted child can make excellent arguments, it's important for parents to make sure they remain in charge. No matter how bright a child is, he or she is still a child, and children, even the gifted ones, need guidance. They need rules and they need consequences when they break those rules. Gifted children should never be excused from bad behavior because they make a good case for having broken a rule. If children can talk their way out of the consequences for bad behavior, they, not their parents, end up being in control.

On one side are creationist-minded members of the state Board of Education. They don’t believe evolution should be taught in public schools in Texas. On the other side are board members who don’t want religious or political ideologies to suppress a widely accepted theory. Huffington Post Science reached out to Bill Nye to get his take on the ongoing debate, which had recently flared during a board discussion about whether to approve new science textbooks. And the “Science Guy” had some choice things to say. “This textbook business is, to my way of thinking, a very serious matter, because of the economic impact,” Nye said in an email to Huff Post. “ Everyone should take a moment and think what it will mean to raise a generation of students who might believe that it is reasonable to think for a moment that the Earth might be 10,000 years old. ”“It’s an outrageous notion,” Nye continued. “ It’s not a benign idea."

"text": "\"Evolution Faith & Science Intelligent Design Real Science vs. Bill Nye the \"\"Science\"\" Guy Casey Luskin March 20, 2015, 4:06 PMIf you grew up among Generation Xers and Millennials as I did, then you probably loved watching Bill Nye the Science Guy on TV. Nye’s quirky, off-beat, after-school PBS show achieved no small feat: It made kids laugh and got them to appreciate science — and they didn’t even realize they were learning. While most Bill Nye-fans — myself included — enjoyed his wacky experiments and corny jokes, few if any realized there was another side to Bill, one that he didn’t start unveiling until just the past few years: Nye advocates a hardline, intolerant, and divisive materialistic worldview view that stands diametrically opposed to the values shared by most Americans. In 2010 he was named “Humanist of the Year” by the American Humanist Association. In his acceptance speech, he explained his deeply nihilistic views: I’m insignificant. … I am just another speck of sand. And the earth really in the cosmic scheme of things is another speck. And the sun an unremarkable star. … And the galaxy is a speck. I’m a speck on a speck orbiting a speck among other specks among still other specks in the middle of specklessness."

Sadly, Bill Nye came out in 2012 with a video that indicates he is vehemently opposed to parents who teach children that evolutionary theory is false. In a You Tube video posted by Big Think.com, Nye said: Denial of evolution is unique to the United States…. People still move to the United States, and that’s largely because of the intellectual capital we have—the general understanding of science.

Indie Wire reports that the veteran science communicator will star in a new Netflix series called \"\"Bill Nye Saves the World,\"\" set to premier next spring. For nerds of a certain age (sorry, but I'm about to talk about myself), Nye's influence is hard to overstate. Some of my earliest memories are of plopping down in front of the TV to watch him make science accessible and cool. The theme song will never get out of my head, and I honestly wouldn't have it any other way. [ Proof he’s the Science Guy: Bill Nye is changing his mind about GMOs]Nye has had an impressive career resurgence in recent years, no doubt in part because his original fan base is now grown up and endowed with spending power and no small amount of '90s nostalgia. He published two books in 2015, made a habit of engaging with those who deny evolution and climate change in public debates and brought the Planetary Society into the headlines as the space-exploration advocacy group's gregarious CEO. He also appeared on \"\"Dancing With the Stars.\"\" ( giphy)When I spoke to Nye about his friend and fellow science superstar Neil de Grasse Tyson's own talk show in 2015, he admitted (after some prodding) that he could see the nerdy seeds he'd sown in 1993 bearing fruit in the general populace. \"\""

Opinion 5/01/2017 @ 12:25PM 15,842 views Bill Nye, The Misuse Of Science Guy: Why Science Doesn't Answer Public Policy Questions The use of science in public policy has recently been in the news, most prominently in the “March for Science” at over 600 locations around the globe. Thousands rallied “for science,” including climate change activists, anti-vaxxers, and those who are either for or against GMOs, not to mention those who just generally protested Donald Trump. Science was championed as the answer to our problems, with scientists such as Neil de Grasse Tyson and non-scientists like Bill Nye held up as messiahs for the noble cause. LOS ANGELES, CA – APRIL 22: A woman is seen demonstrating in front of a small pro-Trump counter demonstration as scientists and supporters participate in a March for Science on April 22, 2017 in Los Angeles, California. The event is being described as a call to support and safeguard the scientific community. ( Photo by Sarah Morris/Getty Images)Now Nye’s new Netflix show, “Bill Nye Saves the World,” has come along to rescue us and our policies from scientific ignorance. The underlying message behind the March for Science and Nye’s show is that science can “solve” public policy problems if we would just let the scientists and technocrats take over. In one episode of his show, Nye pondered whether we should have policies that “penalize people for having extra kids in the developed world [,]” in order to combat climate change. ("

Six years in the making, Answers in Genesis, a nonprofit fundamentalist ministry, opened the Christian theme park “ Ark Encounter ” last week. According to ministry president and CEO Ken Ham, the Biblical story is factually true, the earth is only 6,000 years old, and the attraction will serve as a tool to help spread the theory of creationism, which scientists have widely and ardently discredited. “I believe this is going to be one of the greatest Christian outreaches of this era in history,” said Ham. The feature also includes exhibits on Noah, the flood, and the animals, including the dinosaurs that were brought on the ark. According to the museum’s website, there are also exhibits on how the Biblical ark would have been able to support and care for its inhabitants. Some initial criticism toward the project cited that the museum would steer the public inaccurately away from science education, not unlike the several other creationist museums around the country. ( Answers in Genesis operates the Creation Museum in Cincinnati, as well.) Indeed, Bill Nye, well known for his dedication to science education and his ’90s TV show, “Bill Nye The Science Guy,” visited the park earlier this week with Ham, who documented the trip on his Facebook page. “Bill challenged me about the content of many of our exhibits, and I challenged him about what he claimed and what he believed,” wrote Ham."

If the role is identified to perform a set of activities, irrespective of the position, then yes. There are cases where one is called as Financial Business Analyst. Different industries adopt it differently. However, if you look at on a generic note, then both are expected to perform a different set of functions and it won't be good to place one in the shoes of other. ------------- Sundaresan Ramanathan Answered RSRami Saffarini October 23, 2009 08:28 AMI think every bit of reading you do is helpful."

Environmental science is basically a branch of biology and it examines the effect of human beings on the environment, as well as the relationships between the environment and the organisms living within it. It is a multidisciplinary science, and the environmental scientist integrates and makes use of many other branches of science including biology, soil science, physics, chemistry, ecology, geology, and geography, as well as quite a few other branches of science. The environmental scientist is concerned with all the impacts of human activities on earth and its biodiversity. Environmental scientists were not much known publicly before the 1960s but their work came into prominence after some great publications, like Rachael Carson’s famous environmental book Silent Spring, and after the public knowledge of some environmental issues like the 1969 Santa Barbra oil spill.1. Rachel Carson Rachel Carson Rachel Carson was born to Maria Frazier and Robert Warden Carson on May 27, 1907 in Springdale, Pennsylvania, U. S. and died on April 14, 1964 at the age of fifty-six years, in Silver Spring, Maryland, U. S. She is best known for her book Silent Spring, published in 1962. She is also known for her bestselling book The Edge of the Sea.

"text": "Tweet What Does it Mean to Study Sports Science? The study of sports medicine and sports science involves applying medical and scientific principles to sports, exercise, and the ability of the body to perform physically. These two fields are broad and can lead to many different educational and career opportunities. Exercise and sports science is the scientific study of physiology and biomechanics in relation to the ability of the human body to adapt to motion, movement, and physical activity. Because graduates of exercise and sports science programs generally have strong educational backgrounds, they may find work in both clinical and academic settings. Alternatively, a degree in sports science can also lead to career opportunities in fitness instruction, scientific research, and nutrition. Sports medicine focuses more on the medical aspects of physical activity. Sports medicine professionals specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of injuries that happen during sporting events, athletic training and physical activities. Not only will your sports medicine degree likely involve courses in injury prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and management, but it will also involve understanding how illnesses and disease impacts health and physical performance. A degree in sports medicine can lead to career opportunities in athletic training, physical therapy, coaching, sports psychology and nutrition."

Sports doctors -- also known as sports medicine physicians -- work with athletes, athletic trainers, coaches, and various types of sports teams to help prevent and treat athletic injuries. These professionals are licensed medical doctors who have graduated from medical school with a Doctor of Medicine degree. Over the course of their high school, undergraduate and medical school preparation, sports doctors take multiple science classes to prepare them for their career. High School Science Classes Obviously, high school students interested in becoming sports doctors should strive to take as many high school science courses as possible and at the highest placement level possible. Biology, anatomy, physics and chemistry are all classes the student will need to take again in college since these classes are usually prerequisites for admission into medical school. A solid foundation in these subjects will help increase your chances for success. Some high schools offer physiology, which would be another smart choice for the prospective sports doctor, as this is another subject students will encounter in medical school, according to Southwestern Medical Center's website. The more background in science you have, the more prepared you are for college. College Science Classes College students aspiring to be sports doctors -- regardless of their major -- will usually need to take at least one semester of physics and biology as prerequisites for medical school, as well as two semesters of chemistry through organic chemistry, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges."

"text": "Bench Pressing and Shoulder Pain$ 20.00Add to cart SKU: FB-BPSPCategories: Fitbits, Sports Medicine / Rehabilitation Description Many weightlifters complain of shoulder pain when doing the bench press. This complaint is usually addressed clinically with a systematic formula consistent of NSAIDs and rest, with an unspecific justification coming from physician and goes like: “You could be starting a Tendonitis!” – But what is Tendonitis anyway? After finishing the NSAIDs course and the rest period, the story usually goes on with the pain reappearing – and sometimes worse than it began. Things will start going in the favor of the athlete when they go consult with a Sports Medicine doctor or a Physical Therapist specialized in Sports Medicine. These professionals will not only treat the symptoms, but they will look further into the cause of the injury – which eventually could get serious. There are 3 main reasons for chronic shoulder pain and injuries: -Poor mobility: often caused by tightness or dominance of the prime movers involving protraction, internal rotation & elevation of the shoulder (Pectoralis, Lattissimus Dorsi, Anterior Deltoid, upper Trapezius, Levator Scapulae, Serratus Anterior, Teres Major) -Weakness of the scapular stabilizers: often the result of tight or dominant prime movers of the shoulder and/or simply weakness of the muscles involving retraction, depression & external rotation of the shoulder (middle & lower Trapezius, Rhomboids, Infra Spinatus, Teres Minor) -Overuse of the Anterior Deltoid which is used during all chest and shoulder exercises. A fourth reason could also be added which would be poor or inefficient neuromuscular coordination… …but that could tie into the 3 reasons listed above. This illustrates the famous Shoulder Impingement Syndrome associated with rotator cuff problems; but unless you pinpoint the muscle imbalances and restore proper form and function, neither the tendonitis nor the rolled shoulders will get resolved, on the contrary; things might get worse (think Rotator Cuff tears!) The point is that experienced bench pressers tend to exhibit poor shoulder mobility and/or weakness of the scapular stabilizers to a larger degree – with obvious rolled shoulders – which is why they experience more cases of bench press shoulder pain."

For athletes, playing sports, running, falling, heavy impact and overuse can lead to hip strains, hip pointers, hip bursitis and something called femoroacetabular iimpingement (FAI). So how do you avoid the hurt or bounce back from hip ailments? Keep reading—it's all here. Chiceaux / flickr By the Numbers5-9 Percentage of high school athlete injuries that involve the hip10 Percentage of injuries among NFL players involving the hip Hip Pointer A hip pointer is one sports injury in which you, the athlete, can probably make a diagnosis as quickly and accurately as a physician. You’ll know it has happened when you get hit or fall on your side, and the first thing that absorbs the blow is the outer part of what most people would call the hip bone, which is a misnomer. Actually, a hip pointer is a deep bruise, or contusion, on the top portion of the pelvis that can be felt on either side of the waistline. The distinguishing characteristic is hip pain, plain and simple. It’s not a career-ender, but it is a painful injury that can keep you out of action for days or weeks if you don’t take care of it and if you rush back into training or competition before it has healed. “ It is difficult to manage because the strong muscles that attach put constant stress on the area,” says Lyle J. Micheli, MD, Sports Medicine Director, Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School."

However, all have in common improving the body’s functional capacity or composition. Careers in sports medicine are considered clinical, meaning those working in this field are actual healthcare providers. For example, athletic training is officially recognized as an allied healthcare profession. With exercise science, careers tend to be either in fitness, human performance, research, teaching, administrative or business roles. An example of this would be a strength and conditioning specialist who works with athletes to optimize physical capacity in sports. Whether you’re interested in healthcare or human performance, there’s a career out there to suit your interests and professional needs. Learn more about the difference between Exercise Science and Sports Medicine from an occupational standpoint. For many, salary is one of the major determining factors in choosing a career.

"text": "\"The Physiology of Marathon Running Just What Does Running a Marathon Do to Your Body?by Jake Emmett, Ph. D.© 2007 42K (+) Press, Inc. Running a marathon has been viewed, and still is by many, as too extreme to be healthy. Certainly, the physical stress of running a marathon played some role in not holding a women's Olympic marathon race until 1984. On the flip side, casual runners think that if a pampered celebrity can run a marathon, it can't be all that strenuous. While marathon running is far from damaging, it should be respected for the physiological stress inflicted over its 26.2 miles. For example, running a five-minute-per-mile marathon requires a 15-fold increase in energy production for over two hours. Even runners who finish in over four hours maintain a 10-fold increase in their metabolism. Such extended energy demands require the cardiorespiratory, endocrine, and neuromuscular systems to operate at an elevated level for an inordinate length of time. It is no wonder then that the story of Pheidippides and his marathon run to Athens easily grew into a tragic tale about how running a marathon killed the first person to do so. Fortunately, scientists have researched the physiological stresses of running a marathon."

Contact Advanced Excel Optimization today!--In today’s world, almost any information you could ever want to learn is now available for free or very cheap to anyone with a computer. Meanwhile, in the Western world, higher education (as with most industries that are primarily run by governments) is continuously becoming more expensive and less relevant to the actual workplace. One would expect that as the ROI (return on investment: the ratio of money gained to money spent; you’ll become very familiar with this concept if you follow the program) of formal education declines and information becomes increasingly accessible, consumers will turn to inexpensive books and free online resources for their educational needs rather than spend tens of thousands of dollars on degree programs that include such highly useful subjects as “Issues in Sports”, “Music in your Life”, “Literature and the Occult” and “Movies about Black People” (I don’t remember what the actual name was), all of which some busybodies in the Florida legislature decided should be included in my Economics degree. Thankfully, the prospect of gaining an inexpensive, relevant, and comparatively quick substitute for a college education is now more feasible than ever. In order to illustrate this, I’ve put together a “degree” program for anyone who would like to work in my own professional field of data analytics. This is a large and rapidly growing field, it is in high demand in just about every industry, and it faces a constant shortage of qualified professionals. And, as you will learn in your economics lessons should you choose to stick with the program, high demand + short supply = big $$. That said, there is a reason for the short supply: it is difficult and not a lot of people can do it well. Generally speaking, if you have a head for math, you have a good chance at succeeding; if not, you probably don’t."

The default setting for min server memory is 0, and the default setting for max server memory is 2,147,483,647 megabytes (MB). By default, SQL Server can change its memory requirements dynamically based on available system resources. For more information, see dynamic memory management. The minimum memory amount allowable for max server memory is 128 MB. Important Setting max server memory value too high can cause a single instance of SQL Server might have to compete for memory with other SQL Server instances hosted on the same host. However, setting this value too low could cause significant memory pressure and performance problems. Setting max server memory to the minimum value can even prevent SQL Server from starting. If you cannot start SQL Server after changing this option, start it using the –f startup option and reset max server memory to its previous value.

"text": "\"There are three steps required to become a data analyst: post-secondary education, related work experience, and computer skills. A data analyst is responsible for using sophisticated software tools to review, massage, and analyze large amounts of data. The information can be anything from financial to medical. It is very common to combine expertise or training in a specific field with computer skills in this role. People who report the greatest satisfaction from this job are detail-oriented, enjoy working with numbers, and do not require a lot of social interaction in their daily work. An affinity for computer systems, understanding of database structures, and other data management concepts are all very useful in this role. This type of job is forecast for above average growth in the next five to ten years, as companies look to utilize the data they have to maximum advantage. The first requirement to become a data analyst is to obtain a college diploma or university degree. There is no specific educational program for a data analyst, but training in accounting, business, math, and statistics are all very helpful in this career. While a college diploma may be all that you need, career advancement opportunities usually require advanced training."

You can change a virtual SQL server named SQLServerinstance1 to some other name, such as SQLServer Newinstance1, but the instance part of the name, instance1, will remain unchanged. Rename a virtual server :-1. Using Cluster Administrator, change the SQL Network Name or SQL Server DNS Name to the new name.2. Take the network name resource offline.

A No SQL (originally referring to \"\"non SQL \"\" or \"\"non relational\"\") [1] database provides a mechanism for storage and retrieval of data that is modeled in means other than the tabular relations used in relational databases. Such databases have existed since the late 1960s, but did not obtain the \"\"No SQL\"\" moniker until a surge of popularity in the early twenty-first century, [2] triggered by the needs of Web 2.0 companies such as Facebook, Google, and Amazon.com. [ 3] [4] [5] No SQL databases are increasingly used in big data and real-time web applications. [ 6] No SQL systems are also sometimes called \"\"Not only SQL\"\" to emphasize that they may support SQL -like query languages. [ 7] [8]Motivations for this approach include: simplicity of design, simpler \"\"horizontal\"\" scaling to clusters of machines (which is a problem for relational databases), [2] and finer control over availability. The data structures used by No SQL databases (e.g. key-value, wide column, graph, or document) are different from those used by default in relational databases, making some operations faster in No SQL. The particular suitability of a given No SQL database depends on the problem it must solve. Sometimes the data structures used by No SQL databases are also viewed as \"\"more flexible\"\" than relational database tables. ["

Career Prospects The bioinformatics jobs market has changed considerably in the past few years and can be attributed to a number of factors, mainly the increase in the number of bioinformatics academic programs, leading to an increase in the number of graduates chasing jobs, the steady decrease in the rate of increase of bioinformatics jobs, and the almost flattening of the amount of investments in the biotechnology sector. All this have led to an increasingly harder market for recent graduates. The increases of number of jobs candidates has led employers look more to experience, as compared to the nineties when just possessing the necessary skills was enough to bag the candidate the job. There has also been a significant shift, with a increasing number of academic jobs and decreasing number of industry jobs, as compared to a few years back. However it is not all bleak news for bioinformatics, there is still a wealth of biological information out there to be deciphered, and there also be an increase in the number of bioinformatics research programs, so in some years to come, some of the research would begin to filter into the industry, as many innovations nowadays seem to begin in the research labs (look no further than Yahoo! and Google). Also the bioinformatics market despite everything is still growing worldwide and is expected to surpass the 50 billion dollar mark soon. The pharmaceutical industry tends to be the major employer of bioinformaticians, although biotech companies, especially those involved personal care products, industrial organisms and agriculture have seen bioinformatics play a more important role in their industry. Biotech companies have received a lot of bad press in the past few years as many have apparently failed to deliver on the promises of \"\"money printing\"\" products."

"text": "Business Intelligence > Microsoft SQL Server Parallelism in SQL Server Query Tuning Two tools to use at your own risk Itzik Ben-Gan | Mar 14, 2011Performing query tuning and trying to assess parallelism aspects of a query plan can be tricky if your test machine doesn't have the same number of CPUs as the target machine. In addition, sometimes you simply don't have access to the target machine. You must try to figure out what you can by working with the system that you do have access to at the time -- say, your laptop. With parallelism, SQL Server's choices of whether or not to use parallelism, the degree of parallelism (DOP), and CPU costing aspects of iterators depend on the number of CPUs available in the machine. For example, you could have a query that generates a serial plan in an environment with four CPUs and a parallel plan when the only different factor in the environment is that it has eight CPUs. Similarly, a certain query pattern (e.g., one with a filter col <= @val) might switch from serial to parallel plan in different tipping points in terms of selectivity because of different costing of iterators based on the number of CPUs. If your testing environment has more CPUs than the target environment (which isn't very likely), you can restrict the number of CPUs with server configuration options that set the maximum degree of parallelism and process affinity, as well as a MAXDOP query option that sets the maximum degree of parallelism at the query level. But what's more likely to be the case is that your test environment will have fewer CPUs than the target environment. The aforementioned options can restrict the number of CPUs considered, not increase it. This article describes two options that I use in such cases."

In that comparison, using the assumptions documented on the blog post, Windows Azure was a more affordable option thanks to its Windows Azure SQL Database service offering. In this blog post, I will compare what it would take to perform the same project on a virtualized environment (on your own hardware) and hosted in a collocation environment (private hosting). As with the previous cost comparison blog, a few assumptions are necessary to fix certain parameters that could otherwise significantly impact the results. General Assumptions: The project requires new licenses The project needs to achieve high availability up to 99.95%The project does not need disaster recovery Data center quality hardware is used for this project using similar specifications than those used in the cloud estimates On-Premise Assumptions: The project requires new hardware (servers) but will run on an existing infrastructure (routers, firewalls…)The project will use an existing network storage (SAN) for the database (for database clustering)The same physical machine will host both the database server and the IIS virtual machines Use virtualization with Windows Server 2012Maintenance cost is about 20% per year on top of hardware and software costs Private Hosting Assumptions: Use simpler VMs for web hosting and dedicated servers for the database Assume clustering VMs is possible for SQL Server The project specifications, as provided in the previous blog post, are as follows: SQL Server database, Enterprise Edition, 10GB of storage, 1CPU, 1 million requests, 10GB per month of data tx10 Websites running ASP.

Stored Procedure: Stored Procedure in SQL Server can be defined as the set of logical group of SQL statements which are grouped to perform a specific task. There are many benefits of using a stored procedure. The main benefit of using a stored procedure is that it increases the performance of the database. The other benefits of using the Stored Procedure are given below. Benefits of Using the Stored Procedure One of the main benefits of using the Stored procedure is that it reduces the amount of information sent to the database server. It can become a more important benefit when the bandwidth of the network is less. Since if we send the SQL query (statement) which is executing in a loop to the server through network and the network gets disconnected, then the execution of the SQL statement doesn't return the expected results, if the SQL query is not used between Transaction statement and rollback statement is not used. Compilation step is required only once when the stored procedure is created."

Speed is an integral part of every sport and can be expressed as any one of, or combination of, the following: maximum speed, elastic strength ( power) and speed endurance. How is speed influenced? Speed is influenced by the athlete's mobility, special strength , strength endurance and technique. Energy system for speed Energy for absolute speed is supplied by the anaerobic alactic pathway. The anaerobic (without oxygen) alactic (without lactate) energy system is best challenged as an athlete approaches top speed between 30 and 60 metres while running at 95% to 100% of maximum. This speed component of anaerobic metabolism lasts for approximately eight seconds and should be trained when no muscle fatigue is present (usually after 24 to 36 hours of rest)How do we develop Speed? The technique of sprinting must be rehearsed at slow speeds and then transferred to runs at maximum speed. The stimulation, excitation and correct firing order of the motor units, composed of a motor nerve (Neuron) and the group of muscles that it supplies, makes it possible for high frequency movements to occur."

Warm-up/cooldown 2. Motivation (vary training program, incorporate techniques of periodization) 3. Overload (stress should not be so great as to cause injury before the body has had time to adjust) a. SAID principle: (specific adaptations to imposed demands) when the body is subjected to stresses and overloads of varying intensities, it will gradually adapt over time to overcome whatever demands are placed on it 4. Consistency (exercise program must be completed on a regularly scheduled basis to be effective) 5. Progression (increase intensity of conditioning program gradually and within athlete's ability to adapt) 6. Intensity (stress the intensity of the work rather than the quantity; the tired athlete is prone to injury) 7."

"text": "Exercise Physiology Careers in Exercise Physiologyby Paul Davis Associate Professor of Kinesiology University of North Carolina at Greensboro (NC)What is exercise physiology? Exercise physiology is a sub-discipline of kinesiology that addresses 1) the short-term biological responses to the stress of physical activity and 2) how the body adapts to repeated bouts of physical activity over time. As such, exercise physiology professionals often have the responsibility of conditioning a person to a higher level of fitness and/or health while, at the same time, being aware of safety issues (risk of injury, illness, environmental exposure, etc.) associated with a single session of exercise. The type of client that can benefit from training under an exercise physiology professional varies greatly, ranging from world class athletes wishing to improve their performance to patients with chronic illnesses wishing to increase or maintain their ability to accomplish activities of daily living. What types of careers are available? America’s constant interest in sport, as well as the continued growth of our older and obese populations, creates a robust job market for professionals with an exercise physiology background. For the most part, these jobs can be divided into those working with apparently healthy clients ( non-clinical) and clients with chronic diseases or other medical concerns ( clinical ). Exercise professionals working in non-clinical environments often deal with adults who want to lose weight or who want to gain fitness, either for overall health benefits or for engagement in recreational activities. The most common non-clinical exercise environments include private fitness facilities and community organizations (YMCAs, etc.)."

"text": "What Is The Wall Sit Exercise and Benefits Of It Exercise Henry Van der Walt - Biokineticist And elite personal trainer2016 Oct. 13Request Personal Plan Wall sit exercise is one of the marmite exercises in the fitness industry depending on who you speak to, strength and conditioning coaches generally don’t like it while physical therapists generally speaking will like the exercise. Used correctly in a balanced program, for specific goals, wall sit exercise can be a handy exercise irrespective of your age, you do not need any specialised equipment and can be done anywhere as long as you have a sturdy wall. It is a variation of traditional squats with the obvious difference being there is no movement through the full range of movement but rather the position is held statically in one position. One of the benefits of the exercise it can be tailored to reflect the level of your personal conditioning and there is not mayor technique considerations as with a full range dynamic squat. RELATED: RECOMMENDED PLANS FOR YOUThe basic exercise set up;1) Stand against a wall with hips and shoulders making contact with it.2) Slowly walk forward with your feet while keeping the hips and shoulders in contact with the wall, let your back slide down the wall.3) Keep going until your hips and knees are bent at 90 degree angles and feet around hip width apart.4) Your knees should not extend past your ankles. Once at the bottom the position is held static for a certain time normally between 20 to 60 seconds depending on the level of fitness of the person doing it. To modify the exercise and gradually build up strength and endurance of the muscles start by sliding down only half way and it becomes easier gradually get the hips lower down also play around with the time the position is held, start of with short times and as you improve hold the position longer periods. It is a great way to work your glutes, quads, hamstrings and lower leg especially if you have a knee injury or using as part of a sport specific program. Controlling the force or tension of the exercise is done easily by how deep you go down into the sit and how long you hold the sit at the bottom. The exercise can be used in isolation for the purpose of rehabilitation or if it is used as part of a specific condoning program like that for skiing."

"text": "Over the past 10 years, there has been a shift toward making training more functional. The revolution began, as it often does, with physical therapists, and functional training was slowly adopted by coaches and personal trainers. One of the many signs that functional training would be the wave of the future was when the large manufacturers of strength-training machines began to introduce what they called “ground-based” machines and also to manufacture basic squat racks and weight benches. At this point the handwriting was on the wall. The public had spoken with their wallets, and the popularity of machines, particularly in the athletic training area, was on the decline. However, over the past few years, a controversy has begun to develop around functional training. A kind of functional paradox has arisen. The gurus of functional training seem to deliver a clear message: Functional training should be done standing and should be multijoint. Surprisingly, however, some coaches who have embraced functional training espouse concepts that, in the initial analysis, appear nonfunctional. This use of apparently nonfunctional exercises by supposed proponents of functional training caused some confusion in the field."

Im just confused about graduating in 2 years as an RN or in 4 years as an RN... any info would help!5 Comments Topic Closed Jun 25, '09in order to work as an rn in your state you will need to graduate from a board approved rn program (which i am sure is what broward [community] college south has), take the nclex exam and pass it to become licensed as an rn in florida. licensure as an rn is the legal authorization to work as an rn and can only be granted by the state you live in which is florida. it is not much different from getting a license to be permitted to drive a car except that nursing is much more complicated than driving a car and requires greater preparation so the state requires that you must attend specialized training. you are choosing a training program at broward [community] college south."

"text": "Guide to Entry Level Nursing High school and college graduates who are wondering what their chances are for pursuing a nursing career should take heart: This is a great field to enter with little or no job experience. Many people enter the workforce hoping to achieve their dreams, only to realize that employers routinely require lots of experience in order to get a good job. Well, good news: Nursing is a fantastic field for those who are entry-level, or have no prior job experience. Whether you choose to get a certificate or license right out of high school, or complete a few years of college-level coursework to get a degree, you will find that your entry into the nursing field may be easier into other fields due to the high demand for nurses. In fact, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the job outlook for registered nurses is growing at 19 percent between 2012 and 2022, which is faster than average. Even more hopeful are the prospects for licensed practical and licensed vocational nurses, whose job outlook is growing at 25 percent in that same time span, and is much higher than the average in other industries and even within the nursing field. If you’re wondering about the difference between various licenses, certifications and degrees, as well as what options and opportunities will go along with each, you’re in luck. This guide will delve into those questions, as well as touch on how to get financing for your education, what prerequisites you might face for various certificate or licensing choices, and what is typically involved in each type of program. So grab a cup of coffee and your copy of Gray’s Anatomy (do we need to tell you it was a textbook long before it was a show??) and have a seat."

Usually a 1 year program, does NOT earn you any degree, but you are eligible for state licensure as a LPN / LVN.

I've been an er nurse for 3 years, never worked anywhere else. First of all, are you in nursing school? Obviously, that's the first step. Do good in your pre-requisite classes, get accepted into nursing school, do well, study hard, and apply at the hospital of your choice. Make sure you specify on your application, resume, and in your interview that you want to be an er nurse. Usually they will hire new grads, although some require from 6 months to a year on med-surg (mine didn't). If your heart is set on not working anywhere but ER, find a hospital that will hire new grads in the ER."

Because it’s an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) position, working as a nurse practitioner means a higher salary, more responsibility, and additional education requirements. Part one What is a Nurse Practitioner? A Nurse Practitioner (NP) is an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse who has additional responsibilities for administering patient care than RNs. What Does A Nurse Practitioner Do? NPs can prescribe medication, examine patients, diagnose illnesses, and provide treatment, much like physicians do. In fact, nurse practitioners have what’s referred to as “full practice authority” in 20 states, meaning that they do not have to work under the supervision of a doctor. In the remaining states, however, while NPs still have more authority than RNs, they must have a medical doctor sign on certain patient care decisions. Nevertheless, nurse practitioners are increasingly becoming integral to medical teams as more and more hospitals and healthcare facilities are utilizing their expertise."

You are employed in meaningful work that helps other people. What’s next? Many nursing assistants plan on making their own niche as certified nurses’ assistant their life’s work, and some elect to take on more challenging responsibilities as a registered nurse or licensed vocational nurse, also called a licensed practical nurse. Types of Nurses: The difference between registered nurses and licensed vocational nurses is that the registered nurses usually have more responsibility and can take on more supervisory roles. The hospital’s director of nurses is always an RN, usually with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Supervisors of wards and floors are also RN’s. LVN’s, or LPN’s, can perform more procedures than certified nurses’ aides, but they seldom supervise. You can study part time to become an LPN or RNTraining Programs: Educational programs differ.

Do you have to work as a nurse before attending a nurse practitioner program or working as a nurse? The short answer is \"\"No\"\", you do not have to work as a nurse before attending a nurse practitioner program or working as a nurse practitioner. Personally, I have never been employed as a RN, never worked on the hospital floor, inserted a foley catheter on the job or even manned an IV pump for pay.

"text": "The three top nursing degrees include an Associate in Nursing (ADN), Bachelor’s in Nursing (BSN) & Master’s in Nursing (MSN). Different types of nursing jobs will require different levels of education. What exactly is the difference between an LPN license, an RN license, and a BSN degree? If you're looking into a possible career in nursing, you've probably realized that there are several different types of nurses, each of which has their own set of common responsibilities and educational requirements. Different types of nursing jobs don't just qualify you to administer varying levels of medical care—LPNs, RNs, and BSNs all have their own average salary ranges and projected growth, as well as distinct advantages depending on the type of work you want to do. Below we outline the key differences between LPNs, RNs, and BSNs, the different credentials and certifications required by each, and any relevant job projection data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse)Licensed practical nurses (also called licensed vocational nurses in some states) help registered nurses and physicians by measuring vital signs, monitoring patient conditions (and changes in condition), and providing basic bedside care for sick or injured patients. This may include collecting samples for lab tests, administering injections or other medications, dressing wounds, bathing, and feeding. Experienced LPNs may help supervise nursing assistants and other LPNs, as well as assisting physicians with delivery and subsequent newborn care. Education/Degree Required No college degree is required to get a position as an LPN, but you must first obtain a license by passing the National Council Licensure Examination for Practical Nurses (NCLEX-PN) in your state."

In some countries, the MD denotes a first professional graduate degree awarded upon initial graduation from medical school. [ 1] In other countries, the MD denotes an academic research doctorate, higher doctorate, honorary doctorate or advanced clinical coursework degree restricted to medical graduates; in those countries, the equivalent first professional degree is titled differently (for example, Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery in countries following the tradition of the United Kingdom ).

[ 3]University medical education in England culminated with the MB qualification, and in Scotland the MD, until in the mid-19th century the public bodies who regulated medical practice at the time required practitioners in Scotland as well as England to hold the dual Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery degrees ( MB BS/MBCh B/MB BChir/BM BCh etc. ). North American medical schools switched to the tradition of the ancient universities of Scotland and began granting the Mo D title rather than the MB beginning in the late 18th century. The Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York (which at the time was referred to as King's College of Medicine) was the first American university to grant the MD degree instead of the MB. [ 4]Early medical schools in North America that granted the Doctor of Medicine degrees were Columbia, Penn, Harvard, Maryland, and Mc Gill. [ 5] These first few North American medical schools that were established were (for the most part) founded by physicians and surgeons who had been trained in England and Scotland. A feminine form, \"\"Doctress of Medicine\"\" or Medicinae Doctrix, was also used by the New England Female Medical College in Boston in the 1860s. ["

According to a survey by the Singapore Medical Association, General Practitioners (GPs) in Singapore take home an average monthly income of $10,524. However the median monthly income is $13,758 – this means the average value of $10,524 is skewed more by the lower earners than the higher earners. The bad news is that 10 years ago, the average income was $10,271. There has not been much of an increase for the past 10 years!What I can say from this is: GP doctors are increasingly becoming less attractive (at least economically) as a profession.

You can wait one more day and then try Viagra after talking to your doctor. Regards Dr. Tharun Ask Your Own Urology Questioncan I continue to take horny goat weed an L - Arginine as well with the viagra 100 mg and or the cialis 20 mg ? Urologist: Dr. Tharun Hi L arginine lower the blood pressure and so does Viagra and cialis. So taking them together can cause fall the in blood pressure to very low levels. Goat weed is a herbal product and hence cannot be commented upon its actions. Regards Dr. Tharun Ask Your Own Urology Questionnot staisfied with the horney goat weed question HI I understand your problem, but it would be difficult for me to comment on herbal products on which I have minimal knowledge. I am not against it,but to comment on it would be out of my area of expertise . I can comment on products which I practice or have studied. I hope you understand too."

"text": "\"Difference Between GP and Physician Posted on March 4, 2011 by olivia GP vs Physician GP and Physician are both medical doctors. To a majority of people, it doesn’t really matter what the designation of the person treating them is, as long as they are getting medical treatment. To them, they are all doctors. In a sense, they are right. Whether it is a GP or a physician, the person is medically trained and is indeed a doctor. What then is the difference between a GP and Physician and why should it matter to you? This article will try to highlight the differences between the two types of doctors to make it easier for you the next time you need treatment and advice on any ailment. GPGP stands for General Practitioners, and if the name suggests anything, they are general doctors (MBBS) who have completed their basic medical degree that takes 4-5 years of studies in a medical college. A GP is there to provide primary health care to people. Most of the people are used to seeing these type of doctors as they set up clinics where they see patients and are allowed to write prescriptions for patients."

LLB and JD are two degrees awarded to students in various colleges and universities across the world. Both are very popular degrees. Of course, they show some differences between them. This difference is mainly based on the countries that offer the degree. Some countries offer both degrees. Some offer only one, such as the US. JD is mainly considered as a first degree for those who wish to continue in the field of law. LLB is offered as a first degree as well as a second degree.

However, the tuition fee of Chinese universities is quite low compared with that of UK/USA. The estimated average tuition fee ranges from 3300 USD (around20,000 RMB) to 9900 USD (around 60,000RMB) per year. Some universities in UK do not charge application fee, while universities like Cambridge/Oxford/LSE/IC/UCL etc. will charge 150 Pounds (around 250 USD) to 250 Pounds (around 410 USD).

But as a guess, three to five years beyond a master's degree is pretty typical. The doctorate would take approximately four years post bachelor's to complete. The degree can run up to 60 credits in coursework particular to a specific field of study. The actual length of time depends much on how long it takes a student to prepare and defend their dissertation which typically follows the prescribed coursework. The dissertation is an individual student project advancing an original view point on a topic of the students choosing. It is developed through extensive supporting research and must be approved by the designated committee.11 people found this useful Was this answer useful?"

Psychiatrists are medical doctors, unlike psychologists, and must evaluate patients to determine whether their symptoms are the result of a physical illness, a combination of physical and mental ailments, or strictly psychiatric. As part of the clinical assessment process, psychiatrists may employ a mental status examination; a physical examination; brain imaging such as a computerized tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or positron emission tomography (PET) scan; and blood testing.

However, several differences exist between these two degrees which give them each the uniqueness that they possess as individual degrees. What is MBBS? MBBS is an undergraduate degree which stands for Bachelor of Medicine Bachelor of Surgery. After the completion of a MBBS, an individual becomes eligible to practice as a doctor or a physician. A MBBS is considered as a basic qualification which usually lasts for over four and half years during which the students go through many aspects of medicine and training in basically all branches of medicine. Therefore, a MBBS is considered as more of a general degree in medicine. What is MD?"

Thread Status: Not open for further replies. Previous Thread Next Thread Karen123456Senior Member Malaysia English Where I live, a graduate with an MBBS degree (Master of Medicine, Master of Surgery) is called a doctor. To me, strictly speaking, he is a doctor only because a doctor treats illnesses. But as he has not got the highest medical degree equal to Ph D, he cannot be called, for example, Dr Koh. I wonder whether I am correct. I wonder whether in your country there is a Ph D in medicine. If yes, then the medical graduate can definitely be called Dr. It seems, where I live, the highest is Master degree. So I wonder whether medical graduates with a Master degree can be called Dr, strictly speaking. Ironically, in my country, a doctor with a first degree is called Dr, while a specialist, a surgeon is called Mr. I think in this it is the same in your country."

"text": "Quora User, Printbroker, financial printer, non-practising lawyer Answered Nov 15, 2016 · Author has 24.4k answers and 34.2m answer views I’m not a medical doctor — just an English lawyer. However, I have family and friends who are any of those alphabet soups. In any case as a lawyer, I still have to know how the other ‘professions’ operate in a general way. Below are all from memory. The best way to show the difference (as it was explained to me years ago) is to show which one is the odd man out :—The FRCP is a UK medical award as recognition of the doctor’s expertise, innovation or contribution to the medical profession. All of the rest are professional medical qualifications for practising Internal Medicine or Surgery in the UK (including the Republic of Ireland). The award The FRCP ( Fellowship of the Royal College of Physicians) is an expertise award. An existing FRCP can propose a candidate for this award. More usually, a doctor who already holds the MRCP (below) for at least four years will be entered automatically into the FRCP candidate rolls for election.

"text": "\"How Much Does it Cost to Study in the US?11:00AM Jan 23, 2018 Savei 1,512 shares While the US remains the world’s most popular destination for international students, it’s also among the most expensive choices. However, although the headline costs of studying in the US may be daunting, often involving a string of five-digit numbers, it’s worth checking all the facts on fees and funding options before you make up your mind, as it may work out cheaper than you initially think. In HSBC’s 2017 report, The Value of Education: Higher and higher, the US again emerged as the top choice for parents considering university abroad for their child – but also one of the most expensive, with parents contributing an average of US$58,464 towards their child’s education in the US per year (including tuition fees, transport, books and accommodation). With most undergraduate degrees at public universities costing $25,620 (according to student support organization College Board ), for many prospective students attending university in the US may seem about as realistic as crashing at the White House while you look for a place to live. But before you abandon all hope of spending your student years playing baseball, going to the drive-thru and generally carving out your own version of the American dream, be reassured: there may be a way. Costs of study at different types of US university Anyone familiar with the basic rules of averages will have realized that College Board’s estimate is likely to include significant variation in either direction – and this is true. At the very top-tier US universities (the majority of which are private non-profits), fees and living costs are likely to add up to around US$60,000 per year, but it’s also possible to study in the US at a much lower outlay. Those seeking a more affordable option will find lower tuition fees at US universities within the public sector. These are typically run as state university systems – collections of colleges within a state, which share some administrative aspects while operating as separate institutions. Public universities in the US have two tuition fee rates: one for state residents and one for everyone else."

[ 1] Burns are estimated to cause approximately 180,000 deaths annually worldwide, mostly in low- to middle-income countries. [ 2] Burns accounted for the primary diagnosis in 424,000 visits to emergency departments (EDs) in the United States in 2014, while in 2016, [ 3] there were approximately 40,000 burn-related hospitalizations in the United States, 30,000 of which were at specialized burn centers. [ 4] Work-related burns account for 20-25% of all serious burns. [ 5] See the image below. Invasive burn wound infection implies that bacteria or fungi are proliferating in eschar and invading underlying viable tissues.

"text": "\"Burns Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Legal, Financial, Idioms, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia . Burns Definition Burns are injuries to tissues caused by heat, friction, electricity, radiation, or chemicals. Description Burns are characterized by degree, based on the severity of the tissue damage. A first-degreeburn causes redness and swelling in the outermost layers of skin (epidermis). A second-degreeburn involves redness, swelling and blistering, and the damage may extend beneath theepidermis to deeper layers of skin (dermis). A third-degree burn, also called a full-thickness burn,destroys the entire depth of skin, causing significant scarring. Damage also may extend to theunderlying fat, muscle, or bone. The severity of the burn is also judged by the amount of body surface area (BSA) involved. Healthcare workers use the \"\"rule of nines\"\" to determine the percentage of BSA affected in patientsmore than 9 years old: each arm with its hand is 9% of BSA; each leg with its foot is 18%; thefront of the torso is 18%; the back of the torso, including the buttocks, is 18%; the head andneck are 9%; and the genital area (perineum) is 1%. This rule cannot be applied to a youngchild's body proportions, so BSA is estimated using the palm of the patient's hand as a measure of 1% area."

Safety measures in the home and on the job are extremelyimportant in the prevention of burns. Burns have traditionally been classified according to degree: A first-degree burn involves a reddening of the skin area. In a second-degree burn the skin is blistered. A third-degree burn is the most serious type, involving damage to the deeper layers of the skin withnecrosis through the entire skin. In some cases the growth cells of the tissues in the burned areamay be destroyed. See accompanying table. Another classification describes burns as partial-thickness wounds in which the epithelializingelements remain intact, and full-thickness wounds in which all of the epithelializing elements andthose lining the sweat glands, hair follicles, and sebaceous glands are destroyed. A deep thermalburn is a deep partial-thickness wound that may have the white, waxy appearance of a full-thickness burn. It is difficult to determine the depth of a wound at first glance, but any burn involving more than 15 per cent of the body surface is considered serious."

Control dressings consisted of: fine mesh gauze for skin graft donor sites, silver sulphadiazine (Silvadene) on coarse mesh gauze for the partial thickness burns, and nitrofurazonc cream (Furacin) on fine mesh gauze for the skin grafts. The Aquaphor Gauze was found to be inferior to the fine mesh gauze for donor site dressings. No statistically significant difference was identified between Aquaphor Gauze and controls for the treatment of partial thickness burns. As a dressing for skin grafts the Aquaphor Gauze was significantly superior to the control dressing as measured by graft take and reduced patient pain. We would recommend that Aquaphor Gauze be used as a dressing for skin grafts where the risk of infection is not excessive.

About two million people suffer from burns in the United States each year. Burn injuries are the nation’s third largest cause of accidental death and cause 300,000 serious injuries and 6,000 fatalities each year. The University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Burn Center offers levels of care from outpatient services to the most advanced levels of critical care medicine.

They are moist, red in color and cause pain, redness and swelling. First-degree burns are partial-thickness burns because of their depth. They will heal spontaneously. A sunburn is an example of a first-degree burn. Second Degree Second-degree burns are also partial-thickness burns."

"text": "Second degree burns (known in the UK as partial thickness burns), are 'intermediate' types of burn. Below we discuss how second degree burn injuries can happen and how they are treated. What is a second degree burn? A second degree burn is a burn of the upper part of the skin. They may be superficial or deep second degree burns, depending on exactly how deep the burn injury has penetrated. How do people get second degree burns? Scalds from hot liquids are a common cause of second degree burns, especially in cooks or children - it only takes a few seconds for a young child to reach up to a hot cup of coffee or soup and pull it over. Any other cause of burns can also result in a second degree burn if the exposure is long enough- for example a flame injury, burn from a hot stove or chemical burn. Do second degree burns hurt? Because a superficial second degree burn affects the top layers of skin only, the nerve endings are still intact and so pain is felt."

REVIEW OF SKIN FUNCTIONSFunctions of the skin Protection - intact skin is the first line of defense against bacterial and foreign-substance invasion Heat regulation Sensory preception Excretion Vitamin D production Expression - important with body image - fear of disfigurement C. STAGES OF BURNS: Hypovolemic state - begins at the onset of burn and lasts for the first 48 hours - 72 hours Rapid fluid shifts - from the vascular compartments into the interstitial spaces Capillary permeability with burns increases with vasodilation Fluid loss deep in wounds Initially Sodium and H2OProtein loss - hypoproteninemia Hemoconcentration - Hct increases Low blood volume, oliguria Hyponatremia - loss of sodium with fluid Hyperkalemia - damaged cells release K, oliguria Metabolic acidosis Diuretic Stage - begins 48 - 72 hours after burn injury: Capillary membrane integrity returns Edema fluid shifts back into vessels - blood volume increases Increase in renal blood flow - result in diuresis (unless renal damage)Hemodilution - low Hct, decreased potassium as it moves back into the cell or is excreted in urine with the diuresis Fluid overload can occur due to increased intravascular volume Metabolic acidosis - HCO3 loss in urine, increase in fat metabolism E.

A: Quick Answer The New York University (NYU) Langone Medical Center recommends covering a deep grease burn with a cool moist dressing to remove heat. Phys.org suggests removing any clothing or jewelry before the injury has a chance to swell by cutting around any clothing that is stuck to the burn. Victims and those assisting them must avoid oily products, including butter and ointments, which hold in the heat and increase the damage to tissue. Continue Reading Keep Learning How Do You Help a Burn? What Do You Put on a Burn? How Do You Remove Burn Scars? Full Answer According to the NYU Langone Medical Center, most grease burns are deep partial-thickness burns or full-thickness burns. These second and third degree burns usually cause scarring and take three or more weeks to heal. Full-thickness burns only heal at the edge of the wound unless doctors perform skin graphs."

Statistically, it is the second highest unintentional cost of human life behind automobile accidents. Burns can be highly variable in terms of the tissue affected, the severity, and resultant complications. Muscle, bone, blood vessel, and epidermal tissue can all be damaged with subsequent pain due to profound injury to nerve endings. Depending on the location affected and the degree of severity, a burn victim may experience a wide number of potentially fatal complications including shock, infection, electrolyte imbalance and respiratory distress. Beyond physical complications, burns can also result in severe psychological and emotional distress due to scarring and deformity.

"text": "\"A burn is an injury to the tissue of the body, typically the skin. Burns can vary in severity from mild to life-threatening. Most burns only affect the uppermost layers of skin, but depending on the depth of the burn, underlying tissues can also be affected. Traditionally, burns are characterized by degree, with first being least severe and third being most. However, a more precise classification system referring to the thickness or depth of the wound is now more commonly used. For the sake of this article, burns will be described by thickness. For a comparison of the two classification systems, see the table below. When burns extend through the epidermis and into the dermis, they are considered to be partial-thickness burns. The dermis itself is divided into two regions, the uppermost being the papillary region. This area is composed mostly of connective tissue and serves only to strengthen the connection between the epidermis and the dermis."

Accidental contact with something hot, like a flame, hot burner, scalding water or steam, frequently results in finger burns. Burns that blister are second-degree burns, also known as partial-thickness burns. These burns involve both the top and middle layers of the skin. Second-degree burns are further categorized into superficial and deep partial-thickness burns. These burns typically appear red, characteristically blister and are quite painful. Second-degree burns involving one or more fingers require immediate first aid at home and followup the same day with your healthcare provider for evaluation and treatment.

Unlike dental implants and dental bridges, which are more or less permanently affixed to the bone, dentures are prosthetic teeth attached to a supporting structure. Dentures can be removed at night, for cleaning, or whenever desired. The most affordable dentures are those made with traditional plastic prosthetic teeth, but even more expensive porcelain cosmetic dentures usually cost less than implants. Cost Often more affordable than dental implants, dentures are removable dental appliances meant to look and function like natural teeth. Many patients who have experienced tooth loss and are concerned about the loss of both functionality and aesthetics turn to dentures to meet their needs. The cost of dentures varies considerably, according to geographical location, the dentist, and type of dentures. Pricing Breakdown Factors that influence the cost of dentures may include the area in which you live, your dentist, the type of dentures you require, and the quality of dentures you select. Full dentures are designed to replace an entire set of teeth, either the upper jaw, the lower jaw, or the entire mouth. Partial dentures, on the other hand, are for those who have lost only a few teeth and are often an affordable alternative to dental bridges."

Academic course work on the undergraduate level should include anatomy, chemistry, physics, and biology. All prospective dentists must complete four years at an American Dental Association-accredited school and pass the individual exams administered by each state. Passage of the National Dental Board Exam (administered twice a year), however, can exempt the candidate from the written portion of the state exams. If you wish to teach, do dental research, or engage in a dental specialty, an additional two to five years of study is required. After passing the exams and receiving a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) or Doctor of Dental Medicine (DDM) degree, a new dentist may choose to apprentice under an established practitioner for several years, after which time junior associates may either buy a larger share of the partnership or leave to start their own practices. Nearly a quarter of all graduates buy into or purchase outright an existing practice after graduation.

The Framework is a key deliverable from the Executive Order on “Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity” that President Obama announced in the 2013 State of the Union. Through the development of this Framework, industry and government are strengthening the security and resiliency of critical infrastructure in a model of public-private cooperation. Over the past year, individuals and organizations throughout the country and across the globe have provided their thoughts on the kinds of standards, best practices, and guidelines that would meaningfully improve critical infrastructure cybersecurity. The Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) consolidated that input into the voluntary Cybersecurity Framework that we are releasing today. The Framework gathers existing global standards and practices to help organizations understand, communicate, and manage their cyber risks. For organizations that don’t know where to start, the Framework provides a road map. For organizations with more advanced cybersecurity, the Framework offers a way to better communicate with their CEOs and with suppliers about management of cyber risks. Organizations outside the United States may also wish use the Framework to support their own cybersecurity efforts.

S. government leaders recognized a huge infrastructure need for our nation to succeed both economically and militarily. In order for goods and services to quickly move around our country, something big needed to be done to our transportation networks. After the best and brightest came together to construct a new national strategy, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the Federal Highways Act of 1956 to implement a massive road-building project. President Eisenhower vision turned into a reality that now offers over 47,700 miles of roadway in our nationwide interstate network.

( Mark Wilson / Getty Images)Workers in the cybersecurity industry make an average of $116,000 a year, according to a survey by an organization looking to draw more of that talent to Virginia. A third of the workers were drawn to cybersecurity in college, and a majority said they've been driven by the interesting challenge of defending computer systems from hackers. Less than half had a bachelor's degree in computer science, math or electrical engineering. The survey of 500 workers by Semper Secure also revealed that 44% of the workers considered the Washington region as the center of cybersecurity innovation.

"text": "The White House Office of the Press Secretary For Immediate Release February 09, 2016FACT SHEET: The President’s Fiscal Year 2017 Budget: Overview Under the President’s leadership, we have turned our economy around and created 14 million jobs. Our unemployment rate is below five percent for the first time in almost eight years. Nearly 18 million people have gained health coverage as the Affordable Care Act has taken effect. And we have dramatically cut our deficits by almost three-quarters and set our Nation on a more sustainable fiscal path. Yet while it is important to take stock of our progress, this Budget is not about looking back at the road we have traveled. It is about looking forward and making sure our economy works for everybody, not just those at the top. It is about choosing investments that not only make us stronger today, but also reflect the kind of country we aspire to be – the kind of country we want to pass on to our children and grandchildren. The Budget makes critical investments in our domestic and national security priorities while adhering to the bipartisan budget agreement signed into law last fall, and it lifts sequestration in future years so that we continue to invest in our economic future and our national security. It also drives down deficits and maintains our fiscal progress through smart savings from health care, immigration, and tax reforms. The Budget shows that the President and the Administration remain focused on meeting our greatest challenges – including accelerating the pace of innovation to tackle climate change and find new treatments for devastating diseases; giving everyone a fair shot at opportunity and economic security; and advancing our national security and global leadership – not only for the year ahead, but for decades to come."

Collectively, these diverse systems represent our cyber critical infrastructure. Linking our critical infrastructure to the Internet brings considerable benefits, but our daily reliance on this critical infrastructure means that we are vulnerable to disruptions in our ability to use it. Unfortunately, the threats against our cyber critical infrastructure are numerous, ranging from sophisticated nation states to common criminals. The government’s senior-most civilian, military, and intelligence professionals all agree that inadequate cybersecurity within this critical infrastructure poses a grave threat to the security of the United States. Most recently, we have seen an increased interest in targeting public and private critical infrastructure systems by actors who seek to threaten our national and economic security. Along with dissuading their actions, we must better protect the critical systems that support our way of life. Because of the importance of our cyber critical infrastructure, and the seriousness of the threats, the President issued an Executive Order yesterday directing federal departments and agencies to use their existing authorities to provide better cybersecurity for the Nation. These efforts will by necessity involve increased collaboration with the private sector and a whole-of-government approach. In developing the order, the Administration sought input from stakeholders of all viewpoints in industry, the public sector, the legislative branch, and the advocacy community."

This is not hard to believe when thinking of the number of reports the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center receives yearly (approximately 300,000 regarding over $800 million in losses) and the average amount that cyber attacks cost to US companies (more than $15.4 million per year, per the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Careers and Studies). Although the complexity of cyber-attacks continues to escalate, the human factor is still one of the most important elements in the protection of information systems, in the safeguard of the integrity of networks, and in ensuring the defense of proprietary digital information and corporate data so that they do not fall into the hands of malicious hackers, cyber-criminals or even foreign governments. A new generation of cyber security analysts is already in the making to detect attacks and gather and analyze evidence; these professionals will be asked to keep up with ever-changing threats, as criminals diversify their methods. Cyber Security Analysts can be an asset to any organization for their capability of designing security integration solutions with analytics tools that will aid detection and response to incidents. They utilize behavioral threat assessment tools to consider risks to their organizations’ information systems while also ensuring business continuity and availability of data and services. They identify patterns and expose anomalies that could indicate a cyber attack and then take action, proactively, against malicious events before they develop. Cyber Security Analysts can “truly improve an organization’s security posture” with their know-how and ability to bring data analytics to the forefront to “get a real-time, holistic view of the behavior of the network,” says James Stanger, senior director, products, at Comp TIA.

Despite the risk-reducing impact of good cybersecurity habits and the prevalence of cyberattacks on institutions and individuals alike, a Pew Research Center survey finds that many Americans are unclear about some key cybersecurity topics, terms and concepts. A majority of online adults can identify a strong password when they see one and recognize the dangers of using public Wi-Fi. However, many struggle with more technical cybersecurity concepts, such as how to identify true two-factor authentication or determine if a webpage they are using is encrypted. This survey consisted of 13 questions designed to test Americans’ knowledge of a number of cybersecurity issues and terms. Cybersecurity is a complicated and diverse subject, but these questions cover many of the general concepts and basic building blocks that cybersecurity experts stress are important for users to protect themselves online.

A Definition of Cybersecurity3 min read RELATED TERMSCybercrime Botnet Malware Phishing Attack Spyware DDo SDo SCybersecurity refers to a set of techniques used to protect the integrity of networks, programs and data from attack, damage or unauthorized access. According to Forbes, the global cybersecurity market is expected to reach 170 billion by 2020. This rapid market growth is being fueled by an array of technology trends, including the onslaught of initiatives with ever-evolving security requirements, like “bring your own device” (BYOD) and the internet of things (Io T); the rapid adoption of cloud-based applications and workloads, extending security needs beyond the traditional data center; and stringent data protection mandates, such as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation and the National Institute of Security Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework. Why Cybersecurity Is Required The core functionality of cybersecurity involves protecting information and systems from major cyberthreats. These cyberthreats take many forms (e.g., application attacks, malware , ransomware , phishing , exploit kits ). Unfortunately, cyber adversaries have learned to launch automated and sophisticated attacks using these tactics – at lower and lower costs. As a result, keeping pace with cybersecurity strategy and operations can be a challenge, particularly in government and enterprise networks where, in their most disruptive form, cyberthreats often take aim at secret, political, military or infrastructural assets of a nation, or its people. Some of the common threats are outlined below in more detail. Cyberterrorism is the disruptive use of information technology by terrorist groups to further their ideological or political agenda."

Previous Thread Next Thread Karen123456Senior Member Malaysia English Where I live, a graduate with an MBBS degree (Master of Medicine, Master of Surgery) is called a doctor. To me, strictly speaking, he is a doctor only because a doctor treats illnesses. But as he has not got the highest medical degree equal to Ph D, he cannot be called, for example, Dr Koh. I wonder whether I am correct. I wonder whether in your country there is a Ph D in medicine. If yes, then the medical graduate can definitely be called Dr. It seems, where I live, the highest is Master degree. So I wonder whether medical graduates with a Master degree can be called Dr, strictly speaking. Ironically, in my country, a doctor with a first degree is called Dr, while a specialist, a surgeon is called Mr. I think in this it is the same in your country."

I can literally feel the scar balling up below the kneecap as I bend and extend it. I've tried cortisone shot, ultrasound, massage, vitamin E, magnets, ice/heat. My doc says some 10% of patients have this scar tissue problem and he seems to say deal with it. I am just 24 - This CAN'T be as good as it can get. I can barely do normal activities pain-free! My PT and surgeon are baffled by the bizarre course of my recovery and my inexplicable regression. The knee looks good and the surrounding muscles are strong as anything, but this glob of scar tissue is causing all this discomfort. I've been religious about my rehab, haven't been overdoing it, and this just doesn't make sense to anyone I see. Have you seen anything like this before?"

If you work in health care, however, you may have the unique opportunity to capture what’s inside. Like photographers, ultrasound technicians use high-tech equipment to capture images. But instead of exterior images, these pictures come from inside the human body. And instead of using a camera, ultrasound technicians use ultrasound machines and high-frequency sound waves to produce the images. Given the importance of the work, you might think ultrasound technician tuition would be astronomical. But at many schools, ultrasound technician degree costs are surprisingly affordable. Ultrasound Technician Degree Programs One of the reasons why ultrasound technician degree costs can be low is because many technicians enter the field with a two-year degree.

"text": "Top Ultrasound Technician Schools in Texas The number of ultrasound technician schools in Texas has been growing in recent years as the application of ultrasound technology expands. Diagnostic medical sonographers, also known as ultrasound technicians, employ sound wave imaging equipment (i.e. sonography) to diagnose medical conditions. Ultrasounds are most popularly used to examine how a woman’s pregnancy is progressing, including to determine the due date, the sex of the fetus, and whether or not the baby’s development is occurring normally. However, ultrasounds are also employed to examine adult patients’ internal structures such as organs. Because ultrasounds do not, unlike x-rays, exposes patients to radiation, they are growing in popularity for examining the heart, blood vessels, liver, kidneys, and other organs. Ultrasonic imaging is also used by veterinarians. It is therefore increasingly important for medical professionals to become trained in the use of these devices. Fortunately, there are many sonography schools in Texas that can help students to master the technology. Currently, there are over 3,400 ultrasound technicians employed in the state of Texas, with a large number being in Houston (over 850) and Dallas (over 600). In 2010, the average salary for an ultrasound technician in Houston exceeded $61,000 a year."

These professionals have long been a key part of hospitals' radiological teams, but the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS.gov) reports that as the uses and affordability of ultrasound technology expands, opportunities emerge in a variety of new settings, like private physicians' offices and outpatient care centers. Of course employers of all types prefer to hire ultrasound technicians that know their stuff, and that usually means formal career training. The following offers a snapshot of what it takes to become an ultrasound technician -- and what to expect once you do. Program requirements and prerequisites The first step toward becoming a sonographer is enrolling in an ultrasound technician career training program. Ultrasound technician certificate and degree programs can vary tremendously in both length and scope, so program requirements and prerequisites tend to vary, too. For instance, the one-year to 18-month ultrasound technician certificate programs offer an expedited entry into the field, but according to the BLS, usually only admit candidates with professional experience working in a related field, like radiation therapy. Associate and bachelor's degree programs can be a better fit for those with no health care experience, but usually still require applicants to meet certain admissions criteria. These may include the following requirements: High diploma or equivalency Minimum GPA (such as 2.5)Minimum standardized test scores (SAT, ACT, etc. ) Successful completion of certain health and math courses Students applying to ultrasound technician degree programs may be required submit certain documents as part of the admissions process."

To get started in a career as an ultrasound tech, you need a minimum of two years at an accredited allied health educational institution. There are schools available both online and offline that are able to provide you with this associate’s degree in sonography. Afterward, you’ll need to complete at least one year of full-time clinical experience, which means that you’ll be working, but under closer supervision of your superiors to ensure that you’re getting all the hands-on training you need for the job. You can then register with the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography. The job market, however, is getting more and more competitive. Therefore, many students are opting for a longer four-year program in sonography to get their bachelor’s degree in a field such as medical technology or medical imaging. In either case, there are no state or national licensing requirements for ultrasound techs, but many employers prefer to see registration, which requires you to take an exam after completing your training. As you’re working in your field as an ultrasound tech, you can decide to advance even beyond a four-year bachelor’s degree education. There are currently no master’s degrees in sonography, but you may want to go on to get your Master of Health Administration, which will qualify you for more advanced management positions."

If you desire a fast-paced career in the medical field that pays well but does not require a four-year college degree, you may want to consider becoming an ultrasound technician. Under a doctor’s supervision, ultrasound technicians use sophisticated diagnostic imaging equipment to examine changes or abnormalities in a patient’s body. One possible drawback of the job is the emotional roller coaster you may experience working in a diagnostic field. For example, right after providing an ecstatic pregnant woman with an ultrasound image of her healthy baby, you may find evidence of a brain tumor in a suffering elderly patient. Job Description Typical duties include asking about a patient’s history to understand any concerning symptoms and underlying conditions. Then the patient is placed in a position that allows the technician to capture a quality image of bodily structures and unusual tissue masses. The technician adjusts the ultrasound machine and performs diagnostic procedures in the correct order. Attention to detail is essential so nothing important is missed that could inadvertently alter the physician’s diagnosis.

"text": "What Is Kinesiology? The word kinesiology means the study of how muscles act and coordinate the body. Kinesiology is the science of energy balancing and is a unique form of holistic therapy as it combines the knowledge of Chinese acupuncture, modern chiropractic, osteopathy, nutrition, psychology and the subtle energy bodies (chakras). It promotes physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health emphasizing health maintenance, disease prevention, client education and client responsibility. The muscles are used as a biofeedback system to identify the underlying cause of blockage from the person's subconscious mind via the nervous system. Muscle monitoring is used to access information from the bio-computer, the brain and the subconscious mind, in relation to the problem and also guides the practitioner to choose the priority correction in order to stimulate the person's innate healing capacity and supporting their physiology to return to normal function. Kinesiology is unique as it looks beyond symptoms. It recognizes the flows of energy within the body not only relate to the muscles but to every tissue and organ that make the body a living ever changing organism. These energy flows can be evaluated by testing the function of the muscles, which in turn reflect the body's overall state of structural, chemical and emotional balance. In this way kinesiology taps into energies that the more conventional modalities overlook."

What is biomechanics? Biomechanics is a sub-discipline of kinesiology that is generally defined as the application of the principles of mechanics to animate motion. The sub-discipline can be viewed as both a basic and applied science. Biomechanists work in many different disciplines and fields of application such as biological sciences, exercise and sports science, health sciences, ergonomics and human factors, and engineering and applied science. What types of careers are available? For most careers in biomechanics, either an MS or Ph D graduate degree is required. The positions that are available to those trained in biomechanics can be divided into two levels based on the terminal degree. The positions available to MS graduates involve working in: Gait Analysis research labs Research and design in sports companies Work related strength and flexibility testing Design of man-machine interfaces Research and testing of athletes These positions are also available to Ph D graduates who will have more senior responsibilities as a researcher.

DC, DACBSP DACRB, ICSSD Grzeszkowiak, Konrad DC, PAK, CES, PES, FMT, PMT Kramer, Abby BS, PAK, CPT, FMT, PMT Froberg, Collene BS, FMTIntroduction Kinesiology taping is a commonly used method to treat various conditions and aid in rehabilitation. Many research studies to date analyze the effects of kinesiology taping around the ankle joint. Kinesiology taping is proposed to: normalize muscular tone 1; increase range of motion 2; increase endurance 3; and improve functional movement 4. Kinesiology taping is a relatively new technique, which differs from using standard white athletic tape. It contains elasticity and can be stretched up to 180% of its original length before applying to the skin. 5 The tape then provides a constant pull or shear force to the skin. Kinesiology tape can be worn for several days and remain intact as it is air permeable and water resistant. Standard athletic tape can be restrictive while kinesiology taping can be therapeutically effective and useful following injury and rehabilitation. 6 Dr. Kenzo Kase, founder of the kinesiology taping method, proposed the following mechanisms for the effects of kinesiology tape: 1. Altered muscle function by the tapes effects on weakened muscles, 2."

"text": "By John V. Lombardi April 3, 2014 27 Comments Colleges and universities prepare students for almost all professions of note -- except sports. To be sure, we have students pursuing degrees in sports management, kinesiology, and other related fields, but unlike students who come to study music performance, acting, creative writing and other talent- and performance-based professions, our students who come with athletic talent and seek opportunities to perform are left out of the academic curriculum. This is a significant omission, for as we all know, sports is big business. It is one of America's major entertainment industries, and surely rivals orchestras, theaters, operas and movies as professional post-college employment venues. We provide degrees in music performance, we have superb academic programs in opera focused on the production of major entertainment products by the university, and we have countless theatrical productions produced on campus by students majoring in acting. When we teach our students the profession of sports performance, however, whether in football, basketball, tennis, or track, we deny them the structure and benefit of a focused curriculum and degree. It's time for the sports performance degree. As anyone who watches the college sports enterprise knows, the profession of sports performance (that is, being a professional athlete, whether on the golf tour or in professional baseball) is demanding, highly technical, and requires a combination of talent, skill, training, preparation, and dedication. One only needs to observe the increasingly sophisticated methods and techniques required of baseball and football players, or the careful analysis that goes into learning golf techniques or tennis strategy, to understand that we should provide our students interested in sports performance with similar opportunities to those we provide students seeking a career as a violinist or operatic tenor. To be sure, academic programs in music, or theater, or dance with courses in theory and history, as well as performance, have been with us for a long time, and have well-established traditions and curriculums."

"text": "Exercise Physiology Careers in Exercise Physiologyby Paul Davis Associate Professor of Kinesiology University of North Carolina at Greensboro (NC)What is exercise physiology? Exercise physiology is a sub-discipline of kinesiology that addresses 1) the short-term biological responses to the stress of physical activity and 2) how the body adapts to repeated bouts of physical activity over time. As such, exercise physiology professionals often have the responsibility of conditioning a person to a higher level of fitness and/or health while, at the same time, being aware of safety issues (risk of injury, illness, environmental exposure, etc.) associated with a single session of exercise. The type of client that can benefit from training under an exercise physiology professional varies greatly, ranging from world class athletes wishing to improve their performance to patients with chronic illnesses wishing to increase or maintain their ability to accomplish activities of daily living. What types of careers are available? America’s constant interest in sport, as well as the continued growth of our older and obese populations, creates a robust job market for professionals with an exercise physiology background. For the most part, these jobs can be divided into those working with apparently healthy clients ( non-clinical) and clients with chronic diseases or other medical concerns ( clinical ). Exercise professionals working in non-clinical environments often deal with adults who want to lose weight or who want to gain fitness, either for overall health benefits or for engagement in recreational activities. The most common non-clinical exercise environments include private fitness facilities and community organizations (YMCAs, etc.)."

"text": "Susan Adams Forbes Staff Leadership 1/22/2014 @ 4:59PM 41,291 views Majoring In The Humanities Does Pay Off, Just Later Majoring in the humanities seems like a bad idea these days. Employers don’t want to hire you, we hear, and when they do, they pay poorly (I’ve written three stories saying as much in the last two weeks). But a new study out today gives hope to liberal arts graduates. While they may not earn as much as professional and pre-professional majors like nurses and business majors when they first get out of school, by the time they are 56-60 years old, considered their peak earning years, they make an average of $66,000, which is $2,000 a year more than those with professional degrees. They still don’t do as well as engineers and those who trained in math and the physical and natural sciences, who earn as much as $32,000 more on average. But at least humanities graduates hold their own. The numbers come from “How Liberal Arts and Sciences Majors Fare in Employment,” a joint project by the Association of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U), a group that supports liberal arts education for undergraduates, and the National Center for Higher Education Management Systems. “There’s a myth out there—that somehow if you major in humanities you’re doomed to be unemployed for the rest of your life. This suggests otherwise,” Debra Humphries, a co-author of the report and vice president for policy and public engagement at AAC&U, told an online publication called Inside Higher Ed. Humphries called the career progression for humanities grads “more of a marathon than a sprint."

When you tell someone that you’re planning to major in a subject like history or English, you get asked the dreaded question: “What are you going to do with that?”You don’t really need to have an answer. If you want to major in a liberal arts subject, go for it. The practical stuff, like getting a job, will work itself out. In fact, liberal arts graduates are well suited for today’s job market. Why? Because the state of the economy, technology and a broader global perspective have made liberal arts majors—and the wide range of skills that they impart—more essential than ever before. “A liberal arts education is more important than ever because with the recent economic downturn, we witnessed the decline (and, in some cases, the elimination) of several important industries, leaving highly skilled employees out of work in careers where job growth is not expected,” says Karen Abigail Williams, director of admission at Eugene Lang College The New School for Liberal Arts in New York. Employers are recognizing that while employees can be taught the technical skills of a job, the “people” and communication skills that liberal arts majors possess aren’t as easy to find or teach.

"text": "\"Education & Reference Higher Education (University +)What is the difference in a associates, bachelor, or masters degree? Follow 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: An Associate Degree is an academic degree awarded by community colleges, junior colleges and some bachelor's degree-granting colleges and universities upon completion of a course of study usually lasting two years. Common abbreviations are AA (Associate of Arts), AS (Associate of Science), AAS (Associate of Applied Science; or in some cases, Associate of Arts and Sciences), AOS (Associate of Occupational Studies), and ABA (Associate of Business Administration). In the United States and, more rarely, Canada, an associate degree is equivalent to the first two years of a four-year college or university. It is the lowest in the hierarchy of academic degrees offered in these countries. A bachelor's degree is usually an undergraduate academic degree awarded for a course or major that generally lasts for three, four, or in some cases and countries, five or six years. It may also be the name of a postgraduate degree, such as a Bachelor of Civil Law (granted by the University of Oxford.) Almost all U. S. universities and colleges award bachelor's degrees with honors -- usually \"\"*** laude\"\" (with praise), \"\"magna *** laude\"\" (with great praise) and \"\"summa *** laude\"\" (with highest praise) -- degrees without honors are awarded \"\"rite.\"\" Requirements for such notations of honors generally include minimum Grade Point Averages, with the highest average required for the \"\"summa\"\" distinction. In the case of a few schools, a senior thesis for degrees in the humanities, and laboratory research for \"\"pure\"\" science degrees is also required."

"text": "What Is a BS Degree? B. S. stands for Bachelor of Science, and it is one of several kinds of four-year, undergraduate degrees awarded. Read below to find out more about B. S. degree programs. Degree Overview A B. S. degree, or Bachelor of Science degree, is an undergraduate academic degree program that generally takes four years to complete. A B. S. program is a liberal arts-based program, meaning that a portion of the curriculum is dedicated to general education coursework. This is designed to give students a well-rounded educational experience. Students in a B. S. degree program are usually required to complete a specific amount of major-area coursework as well. Important Facts About a Bachelor of Science Degree Prerequisites High school diploma, or equivalent Popular Majors Computer science; communication; government and political science; business administration; economics Online Availability Hybrid and fully online programs are available from most 4-year schools Dual-Degree Options Many students choose to double-major and earn two bachelor's degrees; in addition, several schools offer 4+1 programs which result in a bachelor's and master's degree in only five years General Education Classes Students in a B. S. degree program usually must enroll in certain general education courses in order to satisfy the requirements for graduation. These typically liberal arts-based classes, including psychology, English composition, and economics, are usually taken in the first two years of the degree program. Compared to Bachelor of Arts programs, Bachelor of Science degree programs often place less emphasis on the liberal arts education and more emphasis on science, mathematics, and the major field of study."

"text": "NEW YORK ( The Street) -- Over the past few decades, the average cost of attending college in the United States has increased faster than the rate of inflation. Family income, unfortunately, hasn't been growing enough to offset these increases, making it even more difficult for many people to afford higher education. Although many students apply for scholarships and financial aid, there is still a substantial amount of student debt taken out each year to cover all the costs. So, how much does a single year of college cost? For a four-year college, tuition alone can range from less than $1,500 to more than $50,000. Using data from The College Board, we have compiled a list of 25 colleges in the United States with the highest tuition fees. Although only private four-year colleges make the list, public, private, and for-profit two- and four-year colleges were all considered. These prices don't include room and board, books, health care, or any other fees that students may need to pay. Click through to see if your college made the list. 25."

A Liberal arts education is essential and plays a very important part in developing philosophers, historians, educators and general thinkers. Many of the students that are pursuing other professional degrees prefer to have a minor in one of the liberal arts education subjects so that they have a broader understanding of cultures and values. Most colleges and universities across the nation also promote their liberal arts education program by allowing their students to visit different cultures. Liberal arts students get to travel and work with different cultures and groups to better comprehend the value of history, culture, and the general behavior of communities. Education in Liberal Arts The main reason behind pursuing a liberal arts education is to have a broader understanding of the cultures, literature, history and philosophy that have carved the paths of our society.

"text": "\"Tweet What Does it Mean to Study Liberal Arts? A liberal arts major offers a broad overview of the arts, sciences, and humanities. Within the context of a liberal arts degree, you can study modern languages, music, English, anthropology, history, women's studies, psychology, math, political science or many other disciplines. The versatility of a liberal arts degree allows you to continue to a more specific degree program--or you can use the communications, reasoning, and thinking skills you've developed to enter into a wide choice of careers. Like general studies, an Arts & Humanities degree in liberal arts major is appealing to employers who are looking for a generalist - someone who has the proven ability to think about different topics and has not been trained to work in only one mindset. Any professional needs to understand the world and society in order to be a contributing citizen - from interior designers to clergy. The liberal arts add to your quality of life by fostering an ongoing investigation of your own environment and the global and historical cultures that complement and conflict with it. You'll see that some of the potential job titles that we discuss here fall under the educational domain of other degrees listed on World Wide Learn's site, such as teacher or communications specialist. In these cases, further training and education may be required to practice in these fields. Types of Liberal Arts Degrees Similar to a general studies degree or a humanities degree, an online liberal arts degree program provides such a broad base of disciplines and options that you'll can qualify for a variety of more specific degrees down the road, if you so choose."

If you have recently graduated college with a four-year degree in liberal arts, you will almost certainly have a difficult journey on the road to job attainment and work satisfaction. A recent study by Millennial Branding and Beyond.com lays bare the awful truth about liberal arts degrees: employers are not interested in them, and do not plan to hire applicants who have them. How bad is it? Of the nearly 3,000 employers polled, only 2% said they were actively looking for such graduates. On the other hand, 27% of companies are looking to hire those with degrees in engineering or computer science, while 18% desire applicants with a business degree. The scariest part is that 84% of employers also say they are desirous of candidates with good communications skills – the very characteristic that liberal arts majors are known for. Fulfilling, perhaps – but not very marketable The notion that a liberal arts degree is not one of the most marketable is not new, and seems to have gained traction since the financial crisis. A 2007 publication from the Bureau of Labor Statistics entitled, \"\" What can I do with my liberal arts degree? \"\" speaks volumes about the angst students were feeling seven or eight years ago about the job prospects for graduates of liberal arts programs."

"text": "\"Written by FS Staff April 28, 2013Each day we receive emails from aspiring fashion designers asking us for advice as to which fashion design schools are the “best” in the US, a given state, or in a particular area of the country. As such advice is difficult to provide on an individual basis, we have instead created this list of the Top 75 Fashion Design School Programs in the US. In preparing this list, we considered over 200 schools in the US that offer fashion programs. Our goal with this list is to give fashion design students a starting point to identify programs of interest and to provide some insight as to the quality and quantity of fashion design programs available to them. In the end, choosing a college is one of life's biggest decisions and we endeavor to help students make an informed decision about the school they choose to attend. The criteria we used in making this list consists of the following, in no particular order: academic reputation, admission selectivity, depth and breadth of the program and faculty, and geographic location. The last factor is worthy of further explanation. As we researched schools and spoke with working professionals in the industry, it became increasingly evident that the location of a school matters in the fashion industry, perhaps even more so than in many other professions. For example, students who attend school in a fashion mecca such as New York City, or to a lesser extent in cities such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, or Chicago (to name but a few) often have a distinct advantage over students in other parts of the country in terms of networking opportunities, internships, and career specific part-time work. Does that mean you must attend school in a \"\"major\"\" city to work in fashion?"

There are some programs of study that may take a bit longer depending on the number of credits required. Usually these are programs within the health related fields. In addition, for students who require developmental course work as a result of basic skills testing, it would take longer. How much longer would depend on the extent of the developmental courses they are required to take. Evidently, those individuals who attend college on a part-time based would also extend their time in school. How much longer would depend on the credit load carried each semester. Typically, an associates degree takes between 60 and 64 credits to complete depending on the specific school, program of study, and state mandates."

And, to be sure, a university or college-level degree in one of these fields can be an excellent first step. But before picking one over the other, it is important to fully understand the similarities, differences, and overlap between the two. In light of this, we have provided this brief overview of degrees in crime scene investigation and forensic science, as well as a side-by-side comparison for convenient reference. Similarities, Differences, and Overlap To begin, it is imperative to understand the similarities between these fields of study. Both of these degrees will allow the holders to work in the field of criminal justice, and both are focused specifically on the aftermath of a crime. Indeed, the ultimate objective of crime scene investigators and of forensic scientists is aligned: to help enact justice by gathering and analyzing evidence, and utilizing it in order to uncover the truth and take action. Outside of this, however, the two fields of study begin to diverge. While the education of a crime scene investigator may include the odd course in science, an aspiring forensic scientist should expect to take a heavy load of science courses, including biology, chemistry, physics, and other sciences involved in the forensic analysis process. Furthermore, because forensic scientists largely operate in a lab setting, their education will be heavily lab-based."

"text": "The length of time it takes to complete a master’s degree program varies widely, from 18 months to several years. How long it will take for you to earn your master’s degree will depend on several factors: Full-time or part-time student – If you are able to devote yourself full time, it may be possible to earn your master’s degree in 1 to 1.5 years. If you are one of the growing number of adult students with full-time jobs, pursuing a master’s degree, by necessity, must be a part-time effort and will naturally take longer to complete. Master’s degree requirements – Credit-hour requirements for master’s programs can vary from 30 credit hours (e.g., MS in Marketing degree) to 50 credit hours (e.g., MS in Health Education and Promotion degree). The average requirement for a master’s degree program is 36 credit hours. On-campus or online master’s degree program – Although traditional on-campus programs offer face-to-face interaction with other students and faculty, they lack the flexibility afforded by online options. By design, an online graduate degree program gives you the flexibility to get your master’s degree faster and more conveniently from the comfort of your home. You have the freedom to fit your study times into your busy schedule while avoiding the hassle of commuting back and forth to classes. Transfer of credits – Graduate program admission specialists review credits you’ve previously acquired and determine how many credits are transferrable. Additionally, your bachelor’s degree may have included the opportunity to simultaneously take certain graduate-level courses."

"text": "What is Fire Science? A Comprehensive Overview Fire science is a career as well as a field of study. While it may now sound familiar to you, once you learn about what the field encompasses, you might have an “aha” moment. It’s an incredibly exciting and engaging field that can lead to a fulfilling career and foster worthwhile relationships with a wealth of people. Fire science is the study of fire protection, i.e., the nature of fires and firefighting techniques. Wildfires, industrial fires, and even controlled fires that go awry all fall under the umbrella of fire science and it provides worthwhile information on how to confine, control, and extinguish the flames. With their education, these individuals go on to be one of the most integral parts of communities across the world. So what’s this about a fire science degree? If you’ve researched online, chances are fire science degree programs popped up from a variety of colleges and universities across the globe. This is a good thing!"

"text": "How Long Does It Take to Get a Masters of Health Administration (MHA)? You can get started in a health administration career with just a bachelor’s degree, but to be considered for top-level positions, you need a master’s degree. One master’s degree option in this field is a masters of health administration, or MHA. Some people resist going back to school for this kind of degree, since it means additional time spent on education, but with an MHA, you’ll qualify for many lucrative positions in the medical world, so this is usually time well spent. To qualify for an MHA, you first need to get your bachelor’s degree. This typically takes about four years, though some students finish the program more quickly and other students only go to school part time and spend five or six years completing the degree program. From there, you can either continue on to get your MHA as a full-time student, or you can enter the workforce and get your MHA as a part-time student while you work. The exact time you’ll spend getting your MHA depends on your status as either a full-time or as a part-time student. If you go to school full-time, which typically requires around 40 hours per week of work, you’ll find that most MHA degree programs take 12 to 24 additional months to complete, after you receive your bachelor’s degree. However, if you go to school part-time, the program could take much longer."

"text": "Tweet The Bachelor's Degree in Psychology as Preparation for Medical School Strongly considering medical school? You may have the option of declaring yourself ‘pre-med’ – but why do so when there are so many degrees that can complement your medical studies? You may, for example, consider a degree in psychology or psychological sciences. Is psychology a potentially competitive undergraduate degree? Yes --- if you go about it right. Northwestern University states that nationwide, psychology majors have an admission rate on a par with biology and chemistry majors ( http://www.psychology.northwestern.edu/undergraduate/career-planning/psychology-health-professions.html ). Some schools offer multiple psychology tracks for students with different aspirations. One track may be identified as being appropriate for those heading on to medical school. Capella University is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and offers several Online Master's and Doctoral programs in Psychology including both clinical and non-clinical specializations. Capella University, also offers four online CACREP - accredited master's programs: MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, MS in Marriage and Family Counseling/Therapy, MS in School Counseling and Ph D in Counselor Education and Supervision."

"text": "MS vs MA in Counseling – What’s the Difference? Students trying to pick the best master’s in counseling degree can have a hard time deciding between a Master of Science (MS) or a Master of Arts (MA) in counseling: both degrees cover one subject, but they do so in very different ways. In addition, choosing between graduate counseling programs can also mean deciding on a particular career path even before starting graduate school. Below are a factors to consider when deciding on which path to take: Educational Background Your Timeline Your Career Goals What MA/MS in Counseling programs are available? Educational Background Traditionally, an MS in counseling is best suited for students who have earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology or a related field, while a master of arts in counseling is ideal for students with a general bachelor’s degree, such as English. One advantage in choosing to pursue an MS in counseling is those students can start on their specialization early: For example, a student planning to become a school counselor can focus on educational/learning psychology in school while a student who wants to become a hospital counselor can specialize in mental health topics and grief counseling. Conversely, students earning an MA in counseling do not choose a focus; instead, those students take general counseling courses. MA students are also required to complete a thesis or research project to graduate. Once the student’s master’s degree, whether it’s an MS or an MA, has been completed, they are then eligible to begin the counselor licensing process. Timeline Usually an MS or an MA in counseling takes about two years to complete; however, the length of time students are in school depends on their particular program and whether or not they’re attending part-time or full-time."

"text": "Education More Stringent Requirements Send Nurses Back to School By RICHARD PÉREZ-PEÑA JUNE 23, 2012ABINGTON, Pa. — Jennifer Matton is going to college for the third time, no easy thing with a job, church groups and four children with activities from lacrosse to Boy Scouts. She always planned to return to school, but as it turned out, she had little choice: her career depended on it. Ms. Matton, a nurse, works at Abington Memorial Hospital, one of hundreds around the country that have started to require that their nurses have at least a bachelor’s degree in nursing. Many more hospitals prefer to hire those with such degrees. That shift has contributed to a surge in enrollment in nursing courses at four-year colleges, particularly at the more than 600 schools that have opened “R. N. to B. S. N.” programs, for people who are already registered nurses to earn bachelor’s degrees. Fueled by the growth in online courses, enrollment in such programs is almost 90,000, up from fewer than 30,000 a decade ago, according to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing. The need is so great that nurses without bachelor’s degrees are still in demand. But experts say that may change in years to come, particularly at hospitals, the largest segment of the profession and one of the best paid. Enrollment in community college programs, the typical path to becoming a nurse, remains strong, but many of those schools are looking for new arrangements, like partnerships with four-year schools, to keep their graduates competitive. Ms. Matton, 37, first went to college for an associate degree in radio and television broadcasting."

Some schools only give BA degrees in everything, some offer BA's and BS's but just make a fine distinction between them (a few math classes more or less). Usually it's the same with an MA, but really, if you're going for a masters in a science field, you really should get an MS instead of an MA.eri · 9 years ago0 0 Comment This Site Might Help You.

"text": "Becoming an athletic trainer What is an Athletic Trainer? Athletic Trainers (ATs) are health care professionals who collaborate with physicians to provide preventative services, emergency care, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation of injuries and medical conditions. Students who want to become certified athletic trainers must earn a degree from an accredited athletic training curriculum. Accredited programs include formal instruction in areas such as injury/illness prevention, first aid and emergency care, assessment of injury/illness, human anatomy and physiology, therapeutic modalities, and nutrition. Classroom learning is enhanced through clinical education experiences. To become an athletic trainer, candidates must graduate with a degree in Athletic Training from an accredited athletic training program and successfully pass the Board of Certification (BOC) Exam . To practice as an athletic trainer in most states, the individual must also be credentialed within the state. Degrees in physical therapy, exercise science, strength and conditioning or others DO NOT qualify the candidate to sit for the BOC examination. Visit our BOC exam and pass rate page for more information on the exam. You can also view our accredited programs’ graduates performance on the exam on our Program Outcomes page."

"text": "Beginners What Is a Certified Athletic Trainer (ATC)? Allied Health Professional By Elizabeth Quinn Updated November 26, 2017Share Pin Email Print Hero Images/Getty Images If you would like to work with athletes as part of a sports medicine team, you might consider a career as a certified athletic trainer (ATC) . As an allied health professional, an ATC has different skills and duties from those of a personal trainer. Their education focuses on the medical aspects of physical training and athletic activities. An ATC works with doctors and other allied health personnel to prevent injury, provide emergency care, assist in diagnosis, and provide therapeutic interventions and rehabilitation for athletic injuries. They also work with non-athletes to promote wellness and participation in healthy physical activities. The settings where they work include secondary schools, colleges, sports medicine clinics, and professional sports programs. Education To become a certified athletic trainer, you must first complete a college athletic training program that is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE) and obtain a bachelor's degree or an entry-level master's degree. However, this is in transition and the National Athletic Trainers' Association says that a master's degree will be required in the future. Certified programs are found at hundreds of colleges and universities across the U. S. The subjects you will study in your college program have a medical focus."

The NATA boards and CAATE boards, with the full support of the BOC and NATA Foundation boards, unanimously approved this change. Current ATs I’m a certified/licensed AT. How does the degree change impact me? It does not have a direct impact on your certificate/license.

Average Rating Click here to add your own comments Rating College degrees are not required to be a personal trainerby: Katie - Admin College degrees are not necessary to become a personal trainer. Most trainers don't have them. If you are going to get a degree, get one in exercise science. If you bypass the degree, make sure you choose a reputable certification program and you really study your anatomy. Your value as a personal trainer is what you know, so plan on spending a few years of self-study to make you an expert in your career field. It is a lot of work, but it is so much nicer training clients based on knowledge rather than ignorance."

He treated top athletes such as Kerri Strug and Jordyn Wieber, and had a stellar reputation for sports-injury prevention and athlete rehab. He was the team doctor for U. S. gymnasts at four Olympics. He was beloved for his warm and disarming manner, which put even shy teenage girls at ease. If there was a dark side to Dr. Larry Nassar, almost nobody saw it. His golden career has come crashing down in the past five months. Today, Nassar is in federal custody on receipt and possession of child pornography charges, and faces three charges of first-degree criminal sexual conduct involving a family friend allegedly abused from the age of 6 until she was 12. Dozens of other women have filed criminal and/or civil complaints alleging sexual abuse or other misconduct dating back to at least 1994 and continuing into 2016."

The prescription of resistance exercise to improve strength and power has been commonplace in some countries for most of the past century, but it did not begin to rise to prominence in the US until the late 1970’s. This movement was led primarily by a handful of college football programs. What started as a few coaches around the country (usually ex-football players) working in small weight-rooms has grown to thousands of professionals working in multi-million dollar training facilities at a wide variety of sites. At the collegiate level, Strength & Conditioning coaches now work with athletes from all sports. In addition to the collegiate setting, Strength & Conditioning coaches also work with professional teams, high school teams, private companies, and sometimes private individuals. Strength & Conditioning coaches were initially “strength” experts, focusing primarily on the attainment of absolute strength. This has also evolved as research on areas such as metabolic power production and transference of training have improved. The ultimate goal of the Strength & Conditioning professional is to enhance the performance of their athletes within their given sports. This involves:· Developing physically resilient athletes who are resistant to injury· Improving the expression of maximal, sport-specific speed and power· Improving the ability to sustain sport-specific speed and power To accomplish these goals, the Strength & Conditioning coach will improve the general areas of absolute strength, absolute power, body composition, flexibility, speed, metabolic power, and sport technique, all while following the principles of specificity, overload, and progression."

An important part of the athletic trainer's job is to help prevent such injuries. Both in terms of team success and more importantly long-term safety, the athletic trainer plays a key role. Not to be confused with fitness trainers who help individuals improve physical fitness levels, athletic trainers work with athletes in team and individual sports to prevent injuries, provide immediate treatment of injuries that occur during athletic contests, and help athletes rehabilitate from injuries. If you enjoy working with people in an athletic setting, a career as an athletic trainer could be for you. Responsibilities While their jobs may involve working with anyone from a professional athlete to a high school soccer team, the basic role of the athletic trainer is the same: preventing and treating injuries of athletes. The American Medical Association recognizes athletic trainers as allied health professionals who work to prevent, assess, treat, and rehab musculoskeletal injuries. Trainers have extensive knowledge of First Aid as they often are first on the scene to provide immediate treatment when injuries occur in athletic contests. Once an athlete is injured, the trainer often works daily to help that athlete rehabilitate to full strength. When coaches develop practices, they often work with trainers to advise athletes on the correct use of equipment."

You would be working with physical therapists, physicians, and other medical professionals in the areas where the athletes have to go for medical procedures like x-rays, surgery, or MRI’s. One important thing to remember is that an athletic trainer is not a licensed practicing physician so an athletic trainer can only provide the most basic medical care to their clients. When watching a football, baseball, or soccer game on television and someone gets hurt, you may see someone running out on the field to check on the player. This person is an athletic trainer and is normally the first one to respond to the downed player and gives them first aid or emergency medical care until a physician arrives."

I concluded by referring to the three options you have available to you for distinguishing yourself in this field – and that’s where we’ll pick up today. Option 1: Go to graduate school. I know what you’re thinking: “He just got done bashing an undergraduate exercise science program, yet he’s going to encourage me to sign up for two more years and another $50-$100K in student loans?”Yes, I’ll encourage some of you to go that route. First, though, you need to appreciate that graduate school is markedly different than the undergraduate experience. There are more opportunities for hands-on learning, more direct communication between students and faculty, smaller faculty-to-student ratios, and much more self-selected study. In other words, you have a much better opportunity to dictate your own educational path. I went to graduate school not really sure what I wanted to do. I could have been a researcher, trainer, clinical exercise physiologist, or strength and conditioning coach."

For most of us, however, this is only a dream. Luckily, our love for sports does not fade away once we realize just how narrow the playing field is for those who make their careers as professional athletes. It is also lucky that today there are more ways than ever before to incorporate your love for sports into your day-to-day job. Fans can now aspire to many jobs besides serving as a commentator for ESPN or writing the sports column for the local paper. While there are definitely positions out there for those of you who have aspirations of being the next voice we hear while the game is on, or who want to be the next face on the 11 o’clock news, the fact is that jobs for reporters and announcers are on the decline. On the other hand, these days such professionals as event planners, psychologists, and even statisticians are finding jobs in the sports industry. You might wonder, “How come?” Well, with an aging baby boomer generation, a digital world that craves instant information 24/7, and a new-found knowledge of the long-term effects from sporting injuries, the world of sports now offers many more venues for employment than in days past. While most of the positions listed below do not require any athletic prowess, there may be some minor athleticism required for some of the jobs—it is only natural that an umpire or referee would be able to run and keep up with their players, or that a photojournalist might need to run along the sidelines."

Psychology is broadly defined as the study of the human mind and its functions, and over time, the field has become divided into three sub-disciplines: clinical, counseling and research psychology. Clinical and counseling psychology are similar in that both involve diagnostic and therapeutic interaction between the psychologist and the client, but clinical psychologists focus on helping clients deal with mental or emotional problems and disabilities, while counseling psychologists help people adjust to changing family, career and personal situations. Research psychologists conduct a wide range of studies on the relationship between mind and behavior. Undergraduate Degree An undergraduate degree is the first step toward becoming a clinical psychologist. Practicing clinical psychologists have undergraduate degrees in many fields. While a bachelor's in psychology is the most common undergrad degree, many clinical psychologists earned a bachelor's in sociology, anthropology, education or even premed.

By Kendra Cherry | Reviewed by Steven Gans, MDUpdated February 26, 2018Share Pin Email Printistockphoto The terms \"\" psychologist \"\" and \"\" psychiatrist \"\" are often used interchangeably to describe anyone who provides therapy services, but the two professions and the services provided by each profession differ in terms of content and scope. Psychiatrists are medical doctors and are able to prescribe medications, which they do in conjunction with providing psychotherapy, though medical and pharmacological interventions are often their focus. Psychologists hold doctorate degrees but are not physicians, and they cannot prescribe in most states. Rather, they solely provide psychotherapy, which may involve cognitive and behavioral interventions. Education, Training, and Credentials While psychologists and psychiatrists both conduct psychotherapy and research, there are significant differences between the two professions in terms of education, training, and approaches to patient treatment. Educational Requirements for Psychologists Psychologists receive graduate training in psychology and pursue either a Ph D (Doctor of Philosophy) or Psy D (Doctor of Psychology) in clinical or counseling psychology. Doctorate programs typically take five to seven years to complete and most states require an additional one or two-year long internship in order to gain licensure. Other states require another year or two of supervised practice before granting full licensure. During their education, those pursuing either a Ph D or Psy D doctoral degree take courses in personality development, psychological research methods, treatment approaches, psychological theories, cognitive therapies, and behavioral therapies among other topics."

Weeks, months, and years of active military service can often lead to emotional and mental stress, for both military personnel and their loved ones. War can seriously affect thoughts and actions. In fact, some studies have shown that the majority of enlisted men and women are affected by some type of mental or emotional disorder or illness. The military men and women aren't the only ones that suffer. Family members and loved ones are often affected by being separated for long periods of time. Thoughts of their loved ones being in harm's way day after day can also add to the mental anguish. Military psychology is a special branch of psychology that focuses specifically on military personnel and their families. This might involve performing psychiatric evaluations; assessing and treating mental and emotional disorders; and offering counseling services. In the United States, every branch of the military employs psychologists that treat active duty and retired military personnel."

The treasure doesn't lie in the holds of sunken ships, but in natural mineral deposits that a handful of companies are poised to begin mining sometime in the next one to five years. The deposits aren't too hard to find—they're in seams spread along the seafloor, where natural hydrothermal vents eject rich concentrations of metals and minerals. These underwater geysers spit out fluids with temperatures exceeding 600ºC. And when those fluids hit the icy seawater, minerals precipitate out, falling to the ocean floor. The deposits can yield as much as ten times the desirable minerals as a seam that's mined on land. While different vent systems contain varying concentrations of precious minerals, the deep sea contains enough mineable gold that there's nine pounds (four kilograms) of it for every person on Earth, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) National Ocean Service."

Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the Earth 's layers, and are a result of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, magma movement, large landslides and large man-made explosions that give out low-frequency acoustic energy. Many other natural and anthropogenic sources create low-amplitude waves commonly referred to as ambient vibrations. Seismic waves are studied by geophysicists called seismologists. Seismic wave fields are recorded by a seismometer, hydrophone (in water), or accelerometer. The propagation velocity of the waves depends on density and elasticity of the medium. Velocity tends to increase with depth and ranges from approximately 2 to 8 km/s in the Earth's crust, up to 13 km/s in the deep mantle. ["

"text": "Science & Mathematics Earth Sciences & Geology What is scientist called that studies volcanoes? Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The term for a scientist that studies volcanoes is a volcanologist - quite simple really. Scientists who study volcanoes work on a variety of diverse areas. Physical volcanologists study the actual processes and deposits of volcanic eruptions. Geophysicists have several areas of specialization within the field which include seismology (the study of earthquakes - very useful in volcano monitoring), gravity and magnetics. Geodesy is a specialization that looks at changes in the shape of the earth related to volcanic activity, or ground deformation. Geochemists specialize in the study of the makeup of the earth and volcanic products, including specialties ranging from volcanic gases to larger scale whole-earth processes. As you can see, there are many diverse fields that contribute to our growing knowledge of how volcanoes work. Most volcanologists have strong backgrounds in one or more of the natural sciences including chemistry, physics, and geology, as well as computer science and math. If you are still in high school, you can prepare by taking as many math, chemistry and physics courses as your school offers."

Geologists and geophysicists use a myriad of advanced techniques in order to find commercial accumulations of oil and gas. Oils from the Norwegian North Sea The investigation of organic rich rocks (hydrocarbon source rocks) and their geological history is important to understand the petroleum system in a sedimentary basin. The basic elements of a petroleum system consists of a source rock, a porous and permeable reservoir rock and a tight cap rock. When organic rich rocks (usually shales containing 4-20 weight % total organic matter (TOC)) are buried, they are subjected to increasing temperatures and pressures (typically 30 degrees Celsius/km). Hydrocarbon source rock, Carboniferous, Spitsbergen At about 60 degrees Celsius, oil begins to form in the source rock due to the thermogenic breakdown (cracking) of organic matter (kerogen). The oil window is a temperature dependant interval in the subsurface where oil is generated and expelled from the source rocks. The oil window is often found in the 60-120 degree Celsius interval (aprox. 2-4 km depth), while the corresponding gas window is found in the 100-200+ degree Celsius interval (3-6 km depth). After expulsion from the source rock, the oil/gas (lighter than water) migrates upwards through permeable rocks (sandstones) or fractures until they are stopped by a tight, non-permeable layer of rock, like a shale."

Lee Lerner [email protected] Draft Copy of Published Work Originally Published: 2002. ( Updated: 2010, 2013) See endnotes for publication and citation information. Continental drift, in the context of the modern theory of plate tectonics, is explained by the movement of lithospheric plates over the asthenosphere (the molten, ductile, upper portion of the Earth's mantle). Precisely used, the term \"\"continental drift\"\" is actually rooted in antiquated concepts regarding the structure of the Earth. Today, geophysicists and geologists explain the movement or drift of the continents within the context of plate tectonic theory. The visible continents, a part of the lithospheric plates upon which they ride, shift slowly over time as a result of the forces driving plate tectonics. Moreover, plate tectonic theory is so robust in its ability to explain and predict geological processes that it is equivalent in many regards to the fundamental and unifying principles of evolution in biology, and nucleosynthesis in physics and chemistry. Earthquakes, such as the offshore undersea quake generating a powerful tsunami that struck Japan in March 2011 are explained by the movement of tectonic plates."

"text": "\"Evidence of water beneath Earth's surface could alter the understanding of the composition of the planet and how its oceans formed. ( Photo: Dirk Scherler)CONNECT TWEET LINKEDIN COMMENT EMAIL MOREResearchers have discovered evidence of water — enough to fill oceans — embedded in minerals deep beneath the surface of the United States that could alter the current understanding of the Earth's composition and how it was formed. Were this water in liquid form, which it's not, the discovery could be considered the planet's largest underground water reservoir, researchers said. The team of researchers, led by Northwestern University geophysicist Steve Jacobsen and University of New Mexico seismologist Brandon Schmandt, has found pockets of magma about 400 miles beneath the Earth's surface — clear signs of the presence of water, though not in its familiar liquid form. The components of water (your classic hydrogen and oxygen) are trapped inside the molecular structure of minerals in mantle rock, embodying a fourth form of water that is neither liquid, ice nor vapor. Water is typically cycled down beneath the surface through plate tectonics, or movements of the Earth's crust. The pressure and high temperatures of the plates moving down causes the water to be squeezed up and the rocks to partially melt. However, most melting occurs in a shallower part of the mantle, in the upper 50 miles, Schmandt said, rather than at the 400 mile marker they found in their research. The area where they found the water is in a layer known as the transition zone, which rests between the upper and lower mantles. \"\" We knew about the water cycle, but we didn't know how deep it extended,\"\" Jacobsen told USA TODAY. \"\""

Credit: USGSContinental drift was a theory that explained how continents shift position on Earth's surface. Set forth in 1912 by Alfred Wegener, a geophysicist and meteorologist, continental drift also explained why look-alike animal and plant fossils, and similar rock formations, are found on different continents. The theory of continental drift Wegener thought all the continents were once joined together in an \"\"Urkontinent\"\" before breaking up and drifting to their current positions. But geologists soundly denounced Wegener's theory of continental drift after he published the details in a 1915 book called \"\" The Origin of Continents and Oceans .\"\" Part of the opposition was because Wegener didn't have a good model to explain how the continents moved apart. Though most of Wegener's observations about fossils and rocks were correct, he was outlandishly wrong on a couple of key points. For instance, Wegener thought the continents might have plowed through the ocean crust like icebreakers smashing through ice. \"\" There's an irony that the key objection to continent drift was that there is no mechanism, and plate tectonics was accepted without a mechanism,\"\" to move the continents, said Henry Frankel, an emeritus professor at the University of Missouri-Kansas City and author of the four volume \"\" The Continental Drift Controversy \"\" (Cambridge University Press, 2012). Although Wegener's \"\"continental drift\"\" theory was discarded, it did introduce the idea of moving continents to geoscience."

Not only do physicists work on theoretical and conceptual problems that define humanity, the field provides the conceptual framework for other professions, since it focuses on the very components of physical reality. What is the Typical Physicist Salary? The kind of money a physicist makes depends on two factors: level of education and whether you join the private sector or decide to work a non-profit entity (such as government or a university). The more education you have, the higher your starting salary as a physicist. Also, the private sector will pay more most of the time. Here is a chart of what the private sector pays as a starting salary, commensurate with the level of education of a physicist: Source: https://www.aip.org/statistics/physics-trends/starting-salaries-private-sector The statistics are from 2007-2008 but you can see the general trend—you get paid more the more education you have. Here is a good flowchart that shows the opportunities provided with certain levels of education for physics majors: If you want a job with an actual title of “physicist” with your degree, you will most likely have to obtain a higher degree, like a Ph D in the field.

( October 2017) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Seismic reflection data Reflection seismology (or seismic reflection) is a method of exploration geophysics that uses the principles of seismology to estimate the properties of the Earth 's subsurface from reflected seismic waves. The method requires a controlled seismic source of energy, such as dynamite or Tovex blast, a specialized air gun or a seismic vibrator, commonly known by the trademark name Vibroseis.

The basic model of the Earth's deep interior is based on observations of earthquake-generated seismic waves transmitted through the Earth’s interior (e.g., Mohorovičić, 1910). [ 1] The use of human-generated seismic waves to map in detail the geology of the upper few kilometers of the Earth's crust followed shortly thereafter and has developed mainly due to commercial enterprise, particularly the petroleum industry. Seismic reflection exploration grew out of the seismic refraction exploration method, which was used to find oil associated with salt domes. [ 2] Ludger Mintrop, a German mine surveyor, devised a mechanical seismograph in 1914 that he successfully used to detect salt domes in Germany."

PDF Rights & Permissions Subject terms: Solid Earth sciences History Geology NOAAThe US research vessel Explorer towed a magnetometer to map fields over the sea floor in 1960. By the time German geophysicist Alfred Wegener proposed continental drift in 1912, palaeontologists had long accepted that past connections between now-separate lands explained the spread of similar fossils and rock layers across them. Geologists, too, knew of slabs of Alpine rock that had been displaced hundreds of kilometres during mountain building. But the arguments for continental motions did not gel until the 1960s, when a drastic expansion of geophysical research, driven by the cold war, produced evidence that reopened and eventually settled the debate. Nature Past Cast Naomi Oreskes and co-author Frederick Vine tell the story of the 1963 paper. One influential study was published 1 in Nature 50 years ago this week. British geologists Frederick Vine and Drummond Matthews interpreted stripes of alternating magnetic-field polarity in ocean bedrock as evidence of a spreading sea floor that pushed continents apart. Acceptance that large crustal motions were a reality soon followed, culminating in the theory of plate tectonics. In its slow convergence of ideas and evidence, the history of plate tectonics holds lessons for today's debates about human-induced climate change."

Fewer people realize that the crust beneath oceans and continents is fundamentally different. Why this is so remains a mystery that scientists are still trying to solve. Oceanic crust is generally composed of dark-colored rocks called basalt and gabbro. It is thinner and denser than continental crust, which is made of light-colored rocks called andesite and granite. The low density of continental crust causes it to “float” high atop the viscous mantle, forming dry land. Conversely, dense oceanic crust does not “float” as high—forming lower-lying ocean basins. As oceanic crust cools, it becomes denser and ultimately sinks back into the mantle under its own weight after about 200 million years. Earth’s continental crust, on the other hand, is up to 4 billion years old, and it is thought to be the product of geologic recycling processes far more complicated than those that create ocean crust. If we can decode and read the relatively simple story of how oceanic crust is formed, we may someday be able to decipher the more complex record of how the continents developed."

"text": "Home » College What Education Do Colleges Require You to Have to Become a Youth Pastor? By Van Thompson Youth pastors work to help children and teenagers understand their faith. Youth pastors are members of Christian denominations who work directly with children and teenagers and may conduct Bible study classes, offer counseling on common life issues or design separate church services for younger people. The specific educational requirements required to become a youth pastor are primarily dependent on your religious denomination rather than on your college. In some religions, you can become a youth pastor simply by apprenticing or feeling called to ministry after a religious experience. In most cases, though, you'll need at least a bachelor's degree. No Formal Education Not all churches require a specific educational credential to become a youth pastor. For example, at New Jersey-based Montvale Evangelical Free Church, youth pastors must have experience working with youth and a call to ministry, but no specific educational standards are dictated. Many churches in the charismatic evangelical tradition take this approach. You'll have to check with the specific church you're interested in serving to determine what kind of specific experience working with youth you'll need, but volunteer counseling at religious events, teaching a Bible study class or an internship under another pastor may qualify."

"text": "\"Who Should Run the Church? A Case for the Plurality of Elders Related Media Many churches today have a pastor and several deacons. This is based on a model of ecclesiology in which it is assumed that there was one elder in the ancient church. But even those churches that have more than one elder (the pastor being one of them) usually regard the pastor as the de facto head of the church. This is due to two basic reasons: (1) he is the one with biblical training, and (2) he is the one who speaks before the entire congregation every Sunday. It seems to me that this model (either the philosophical single-elder model or the pragmatic single-leader model) misses the mark of the New Testament teaching on this topic. The early church had, I believe, multiple elders. The pastor would have been counted among them, but was not over them. Indeed, all would have taught, not just one. If we can get back to this model, I think that churches will be stronger in many ways."

And not only does she hold those posts, but her designation to each of them represents a historic milestone. Bowen was honored March 4 as part of the celebration of the 40th Anniversary of Women in Military Chaplaincy at the Women in Military Service for America Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery. The event marked the opening of an exhibit entitled “Celebrating 40 Years of Women Chaplains: A Courageous Journey of Faith and Service.” She is featured in a mural at the museum in two locations as part of the exhibit. On the civilian side, she was also recently honored as a STEM professional for her 27 years of service at JBM-HH as part of the National Women’s History Month commemoration. Bowen, chief of the master planning division at the facility, oversees projects for space management, real estate, architecture and master planning.

Pastor Graham, as he is known to members of Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano, has ministered at Prestonwood, one of North America’s largest churches, since 1989. The good old days Graham, now a Frisco resident, originally called the town of Conway, Ark., home. There, his family lived with his maternal grandfather, A. J. Sims. Very much the ideal ’50s father, Tom Graham ran the Dan-Dee-Dog, a drive-in that served corn dogs, shakes and fries. “Some of my happiest days early in life were hanging out at the drive-in with my dad. My mom, Emogene, stayed at home, so she spent a lot of time chasing me,” Graham said. “ The 1950s were a much simpler time.

Metaphysics is not meant to be studied solely as an intellectual pursuit. A student of metaphysics does not attempt to solve all questions materially.

"text": "\"Society & Culture Religion & Spirituality How much should a full time pastor be paid? For a congregation of about 100 people. If the pastor is fully committed to all pastoral duties as well as on call for sick people, counseling, and anything else needed. I would really like to hear what others think it is fair... Thanks.1 following 17 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: There are a lot of mitigating factors that would go into determining the pay of a Pastor. 1. Does the church provide a parsonage? If the church owns a parsonage most states dictate that living in the parsonage will count as income. This is generally figured out by the average rate of rent for a house of similar size and property tax. Also if he lives in the parsonage the church is required to pay all the utility bills which again is figured into the income of the Pastor. If the church does not provide a parsonage then if the church pays for the rent of a house, that is figured into his income."

Child psychologists, also known as child and adolescent clinical psychologists or pediatric clinical psychologists, are therapists who have acquired a doctorate in clinical psychology and specialize in treating serious emotional problems in children and teens. A child psychologist must meet high academic and licensing standards and also must show kindness and understanding to troubled young people. Child Psychologist Tasks Child psychologists are needed because emotional problems, including mental illnesses, often cause different symptoms in children and teens than in adults. This difference in symptoms calls for therapists who can make careful diagnoses and show patience and empathy toward young people who cannot always explain their feelings as clearly as adults can. Child psychologists work in a wide variety of settings, including school systems, mental health clinics, private practices, children's hospitals, doctor's offices, public health agencies, juvenile justice organizations, service agencies and advocacy groups. Undergraduate Program A student who wants to become a child psychologist must first acquire a bachelor's degree. A student who plans to become a child psychologist may want to major in child psychology or child development.

He quickly assesses and carefully treats injuries, such as pulled muscles, wounds and broken bones, and confidently educates players on injury prevention. Athletes of all ages and abilities can be diagnosed and rehabilitated by an athletic trainer, in conjunction with a medical doctor or a healthcare provider. Good Communicator An athletic trainer is usually first on the scene when a player is injured. Because of this, he needs to properly diagnose an injury and accurately converse with the player's physician. Details matter, such as how the player landed on the limb or whether it swelled immediately. It is crucial that information is factual, documented and well-communicated to all other healthcare providers and family members. In addition, a trainer must clearly communicate the rehabilitation requirements so that the player -- and others -- know exactly how to manage pain and therapy, for example. Studious Professional athletic trainers have at least a bachelor's degree in athletic training from an accredited school. Others go on to get a master's to be competitive at the university level."

Nature of the Work for Athletic Trainers The role of an athletic trainer is to help prevent and treat injuries for people of all ages. An athletic trainer’s clientele can include industrial professionals as well as professional athletes. Athletic trainers specialize in areas of prevention, diagnosis, treatment, assessment, and rehabilitation, recognized by the American Medical Association as health professionals. An athletic trainer must be able to recognize, evaluate and asses injuries immediately since they are usually the first healthcare providers to show up to the scene.

For example, they may wrap an ice pack around a player's sore arm or shoulder, apply a moist hot pack to relieve a player's muscle spasms, spray antiseptic on scraped knees and elbows, or wrap bandages around sprained wrists and ankles. Athletic trainers are employed by schools, colleges, and universities that have athletic programs and sports teams. They also work for professional teams in baseball, football, basketball, ice hockey, and other sports. Some athletic trainers work for health clubs and summer camps.

The Path to Becoming a Psychologist First, you will need a bachelor's degree (4 to 5 years), which teaches the fundamentals of psychology. After that, you will need a master's degree (2 to 3 years), which can qualify you to practice in the field as a case manager, employment specialist, or social worker.

Many states also require post-doctoral training equivalent to about 1 year of work. While there are several excellent psychology career options that do not require as many years of education as it takes to become a licensed clinical psychologist, the benefits of doing so — including the satisfaction of helping others and a higher salary — can compensate for the additional years of education it will require.

In general, there are a couple ways to change a community problem: First-order change involves changing the individuals themselves. Treating each individual’s substance abuse problem, for instance.

"text": "Posted Jun 24th, 2014 , Updated Jan 9th, 2018 by College Atlas When considering a career in psychology, many students wonder how long it will actually take them to become a practicing psychologist. The answer really depends on the profession as well as the specialty you want to work in. For example, becoming a school psychologist can take a little as two years of graduate-level education, and only requires a master’s degree. On the other hand, if you want to become a child psychologist you will need to earn a doctorate degree, which can require up to seven additional years of psychologist schooling. Required Degrees and Experience Regardless of your career field or specialty, most psychology positions will require you to earn an undergraduate, four-year bachelor’s degree in psychology or a related field such as sociology, or social work. In addition, a bachelor’s degree, in and of itself, is not typically sufficient to qualify for most desirable careers in psychology. Most students who major in psychology and then immediately enter the workforce upon graduating with a bachelor’s degree end up working in a non-psychology field. The requirement for most entry-level clinical or professional psychology positions is a master’s degree, and even then, most employers are looking for candidates who hold a doctorate. A doctorate degree in psychology typically requires 4-7 years of graduate-level education following the completion of a bachelor’s or master’s degree in psychology. While some doctorate programs require candidates to first obtain a master’s degree in psychology others will accept applicants with a bachelor’s degree."

"text": "What Is Navy Psychology? Military careers are well known for causing a number of mental and emotional health problems. A Navy career is no exception. Being trapped on vessels at sea for days, weeks, or even months at a time can lead to a variety of problems and negatively affect a person's psyche. Navy sailors are also at risk of developing the same mental and emotional problems that afflict other members of the military as well. Navy psychology is a special branch of psychology that focuses on sailors and officers in the United States Navy. The aim of this branch of psychology is to assess, prevent, and treat a number of different mental and emotional problems experienced by sailors as well as their families. Professionals in the naval psychology field will often live and work very close to the sailors that they are responsible for treating. Naval vessels are usually very small and cramped, and naval teas - including sailors, officers, and psychologists, among others - are often crammed together for extended periods of time in very tight quarters. This can make Navy psychology careers even more difficult than traditional psychology careers, but they are also very rewarding."

There will be plenty of background information, but I will try to maintain emphasis on the most recent aspect of the goddess as Columbia. To begin... Wikipedia: \"\"Though he never set foot in what became the United States, Columbus is often viewed as a hero because of his pivotal role in U. S. history. \"\" Columbus was fortunate enough to have a very symbolic name. It would later be used to a great extent in America for it's many meanings and aspects, and slight historical significance. In fact Columbia would become the name of a new Goddess for a New World ( NWO? ). Almost from the moment the New World was discovered, it was seen in mythological terms as an exotic goddess, an Indian Queen dressed in feathers and furs ridding an exotic beast like an armadillo and armed with a tomahawk. The Catholic south adapted the idea of the Goddess of the New World into the ever-expanding hagiology of the Catholic Church. The Virgin of Guadalupe allowed the archetype to become personal, a connection to the land and its ancestors, while joining a larger universalist vision inside the Church. In the largely Protestant north, things went quite differently."

"text": "\"May 2012 By Astrologer Steven Stuckey A number of branches of Jyotish, including Jataka, Prashna, Muhurtha, and Mundane, derive their underlying meanings from groupings of stars and the planets that are placed amongst those stars. There is both a twelve-fold and a twenty seven-fold division of stars in Jyotish. The seven ancient planets plus Rahu and Ketu, with their basic characteristics, are colored and modified when tenanting the various constellations and nakshatras. This means that the stars themselves, separately and in combination, impart their own unique influence upon the planets. Even the many Varga or harmonic charts, such as the Navamsa and Dasamsa, although derived charts, have their ultimate basis in the Rasi chart and are thus based upon real physical, astronomical positions. Vedic astrology, being a sidereal or star-based system, has a star as its demarcation point. In the most commonly used Lahiri ayanamsa, the star Chitra or Spica, is designated as 0 degrees of Libra. The point directly opposite to Chitra is 0 Aries, the beginning of the sidereal zodiac. This differs dramatically from the starting point of the western or Tropical zodiac. In Tropical astrology, 0 Aries is always coincident with the Vernal Equinox, where the ecliptic and celestial equator of the Earth intersect."

It is a blue subgiant star located at a distance of 262 light years from Earth. Spica is really a close binary star system. It is one of the nearest massive binary stars to the solar system. The name Spica (pronounced /ˈspaɪkə/) comes from the Latin phrase spīca virginis, meaning “Virgo’s ear of grain.” The Latin word spicum refers to the ear of wheat Virgo holds in her left hand. In Greek and Roman mythology, the constellation and the star were associated with Demeter (Ceres), the goddess of the harvest. Spica is bright both because of its size and relative proximity to Earth. The components in the system have a radius 7.40 and 3.64 times that of the Sun. Both stars are significantly brighter than the Sun, with total luminosities (including ultraviolet radiation) of 12,100 and 1,500 times solar."

A lion is the only feline with a tuft on the end of their tale. Lions have excellent eyesight, very good hearing and a good sense of smell to catch their prey with and to protect their territory. A lion will sleep or rest up to twenty hours a day and hunt for four hours. Lions do not like to swim and will only enter water for good reason, e.g. food. Mane: There is no sure answer as to the question why lions have manes. Some people believe the mane acts as protection against other lions bighting the neck in fights, but lions often fight by biting on the back."

HOW DO WE FIND STARS IN THE SKYSome of the brighter stars appear to form groups in the sky, these we call constellations. Most constellations were named a very long time ago by the Greeks or Arabs. People thought they could see the shapes of animals or their gods and named the constellations after them. In most cases it is very hard to imagine how they saw the shape that the star pattern is supposed to represent but we still use the same names today. In the first 3 or 4 months of the year we see the winter constellations which include three very beautiful and interesting ones. These are called ORION the hunter, ANDROMEDA a Greek goddess and TAURUS the Bull. Constellations are not necessarily associations of stars, some groups of stars are not groups at all but are just in the same line of sight as seen from Earth."

"text": "University Lowbrow Astronomers Introduction to the Constellationsby Dave Snyder Written: December, 2003This page is for beginning amateur astronomers who are still learning how to identify constellations. It is designed for observers at about 40 degrees north latitude (though it will work for latitudes somewhat north or south of that). There are four different charts, you should select a chart based on the time of year, and whether you are observing before midnight (the evening) or after midnight (the morning). It describes major “landmarks” in the night sky and how to use those landmarks to find other constellations. If you live in city or a suburban environment, you probably will encounter light pollution. Light pollution will prevent you from seeing all of the stars shown in these charts; you can see the brighter stars, but you will not see the fainter stars. Your ability to see fainter stars will improve if you can find a location away from bright lights and if you are patient: your ability to see faint sees will improve if you allow your eyes to adjust to the darkness for a half hour or more. You may need to find a location away from obstructions like trees, buildings and mountains. Spring Evenings & Winter Mornings The stars of the Big Dipper are circumpolar from northern latitudes (this means these stars are visible anytime it is dark) and can be used as a landmark. The best time to use the Big Dipper as a landmark is Winter mornings and Spring evenings."

However, if you have never had anyone point out this constellation, looking for Leo can be very much like trying to spot a lion hiding in the grasslands of the African Savannah. Much like any time you are looking for something new, it is usually easier to start with something you already know. In the case of the night sky, one of the most recognizable constellations is that of the Big Dipper. Look for it in the North. You can trace it’s curved handle to the four stars that make up the bowl of the dipper. The two stars that delineate the far side of the bowl are often called pointer stars. If you follow them to the North, they point right at the North Star (Polaris), which also happens to be the first star in the handle of the Little Dipper.

Credit: Photo Credit: The Pharos of Alexandria, an ancient lighthouse, is depicted in this hand-colored engraving by Martin Heemskerck. The Egyptian city of Alexandria, home to one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, may have been built to align with the rising sun on the day of Alexander the Great's birth, a new study finds. The Macedonian king, who commanded an empire that stretched from Greece to Egypt to the Indus River in what is now India, founded the city of Alexandria in 331 B. C. The town would later become hugely prosperous, home to Cleopatra, the magnificent Royal Library of Alexandria and the 450-foot-tall (140 meters) Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the wonders of the ancient world. Today, more than 4 million people live in modern Alexandria. Ancient Alexandria was planned around a main east-west thoroughfare called Canopic Road, said Giulio Magli, an archaeoastronomer at the Politecnico of Milan. A study of the ancient route reveals it is not laid out according to topography; for example, it doesn't run quite parallel to the coastline. But on the birthday of Alexander the Great, the rising sun of the fourth century rose \"\"in almost perfect alignment with the road,\"\" Magli said. The results, he added, could help researchers in the hunt for the elusive tomb of Alexander."

Use \"\"Back\"\" to return here. Brightness of Stars Astronomers describe the brightness of objects in the sky in terms of magnitude. This scale was originally devised by the Greek astronomer Hipparchus over 2,000 years ago, and the modern version is largely an extended and more accurate version of the ancient scale. Hipparchus called the 20 or so brightest stars in the sky magnitude 1, and stars just visible to the unaided eye are magnitude 6. Faint objects have large magnitude numbers, bright objects have small numbers. Each step of one magnitude corresponds to an increase or decrease of about 2.5 times in brightness; a five-magnitude step means a 100-fold increase or decrease. Unfortunately, because Hipparchus followed the natural tendency to rank the most prominent objects as first magnitude, very bright objects can have zero or even negative magnitudes, and scales with zero and negative numbers are often very confusing to beginners. A zero magnitude star doesn't mean no brightness, it means a very bright star. We can also define fractional magnitudes."

There are around 600 pre-Reformation churches in England named after Saint Andrew, in contrast to Scotland's handful of churches of all denominations named after the saint. Nevertheless, it was Scotland that adopted Andrew as its patron - probably because, Saint Andrew being the brother of Saint Peter, it gave the Scots considerable political leverage with the Pope in pleading for help against the belligerent English!Andrew's life In Greek Andrew means 'manly'. St. Andrew's biographical details are simple: he was born between AD 5 and AD 10 in Bethsaida, the principal fishing port of Palestine. His parents were Jona and Joanna; his brother was Simon.

Answer The traditional route to becoming a public school teacher involves completing a bachelor's degree from a teacher education program and then obtaining a license. However, most States now offer alternative routes to licensure for those who have a college degree in other fields. Private school teachers do not have to be licensed but still need a bachelor's degree. A bachelor's degree may not be needed by preschool teachers and vocational education teachers, who need experience in their field rather than a specific degree. Education and training. Traditional education programs for kindergarten and elementary school teachers include courses designed specifically for those preparing to teach. These courses include mathematics, physical science, social science, music, art, and literature, as well as prescribed professional education courses, such as philosophy of education, psychology of learning, and teaching methods. Aspiring secondary school teachers most often major in the subject they plan to teach while also taking a program of study in teacher preparation. Many 4-year colleges require students to wait until their sophomore year before applying for admission to teacher education programs."

"text": "Lillian Mongeau January 22, 20133 Comments Through a concerted effort over the past five years, California is on track to meet a national requirement that 50 percent of Head Start lead classroom teachers hold a bachelor’s degree by the end of September. While only 27 percent of Head Start lead teachers held a bachelor’s degree in the 2007-08 school year, 48 percent now hold one, and an additional 11 percent are enrolled in a baccalaureate program. “Most [program] directors are feeling confident that they’ve reached the 50 percent mark,” said California Head Start Association executive director Rick Mockler. In fact, the requirement seems to have worked even though the current law does not impose consequences for individual programs or individual states that do not meet the benchmark by the Sept. 30 deadline. With no fear of reprisals either way, programs in California took advantage of tuition assistance offered by both the federal and state governments to encourage teachers to pursue higher-level degrees. This graph from a working paper by Professor Daphna Bassok of the University of Virginia shows the sharp uptick in Head Start teachers holding a B. A. nationally. ( Click to enlarge)The new requirement from Head Start, the federal preschool program for low-income children, was added in 2007 when Congress last re-authorized Head Start funding. It was part of a wave of new regulations intended to shore up the quality of Head Start, which studies have repeatedly found to be minimally effective. The hope is that increasing expectations for teacher education will improve the quality of instruction in local programs. “The push for teachers to get degrees is more about validating the notion that in the early years we do more than just babysit kids,” said Diane Levin, deputy director for First 5 California, a statewide agency dedicated to improving care and education programs for Californians to age 5. “"

But so, as they say, is ignorance; maybe that’s why navigating the preschool terrain these days is considerably more complicated. The truth is, we know more than we used to. Thanks to advances in child development and neuroscience, parents and educators are paying closer attention to the way kids process information during their preschool years. We know, for example, that early socialization facilitates learning. While you can provide your children with countless opportunities for social interaction at home, the kind of group interaction kids encounter in a preschool setting is difficult to duplicate."

Claire Cain Miller @clairecm APRIL 7, 201789Lisa Martino reads to students in preparation for a job as a teacher in New York’s universal pre-K program, for which she enrolled in a city-funded master’s degree program in early childhood education. Christopher Gregory for The New York Times In Washington, D. C., teachers at child care centers will soon join preschool teachers in needing college degrees — one of a series of policies nationwide requiring higher education for the people who take care of young children. Advocates say it’s a way to ensure that teachers are qualified to nurture children at a crucial phase of development. They cite evidence that high-quality early childhood education helps children, especially disadvantaged ones, for the rest of their lives — but that low-quality preschool can hurt more than none at all. Critics, meanwhile, say there is nothing about taking care of young children that requires a college education. Mandating such credentials, they say, only makes child care even less affordable and reduces the supply and diversity of people able to do the job. The debate has become more urgent as researchers have discovered that children develop wide achievement gaps well before kindergarten, which fuels inequality. Yet teaching and caring for young children is still considered a low-status job. So what does the data show?"

Learn about education and experience requirements to work as a preschool teacher. Schools offering Early Childhood Education degrees can also be found in these popular choices . What Is a Lead Teacher? A lead teacher typically works in a preschool, often with an assistant teacher to share duties. These professionals instruct students in concepts like the alphabet, colors, and shapes, often through play or encouraging imaginative thinking. Preschool education involves language, motor, and social skills, so lead teachers often work those into their curriculum alongside the alphabet and other concepts. Aside from instructing, lead teachers are also responsible for maintaining the state of the classroom, planning lessons around a curriculum, and keeping progress reports and other information for parents and the school. Lead teachers train assistant teachers, who may go on to be lead teachers themselves. Some schools will require a lead teacher to oversee multiple classrooms."

"text": "PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY RESEARCH GUIDE: EARTH/SUN RELATIONS AND SEASONSOn This Page: Tutorial Summary Quizzes See Also: Research Guide: Physical Geography TUTORIAL : EARTH/SUN RELATIONS AND SEASONSTo understand why we have seasons, we need to look at the relations between the Earth and the Sun. The plane of the ecliptic is the plane of the Earth’s orbit around the Sun. Most of the planets in the solar system also orbit on or near the plane of the ecliptic. ( You can see in the drawing below that the planets are more or less lined up, instead of circling the Sun at just any old angle. No, this is not drawn to scale. ) The Sun’s rays are pretty close to parallel to each other when they reach the Earth: So, if the Earth’s axis of rotation were perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic,then the direct rays of the Sun would always shine on the equator (that is, the angle of incidence at the equator would be 90 degrees), and you would always see the Sun just on the horizon at the North and South Poles (that is, the angle of incidence at the Poles would be zero): If that were the case, we would have no seasons. However, the Earth’s axis is not perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic. If you drew a line perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic, the Earth’s axis of rotation would be tilted, or inclined, at an angle of about 23.5 degrees with respect to the perpendicular line. It is this inclination of the Earth’s axis of rotation that is the reason for the seasons. The Earth maintains the same angle of inclination throughout its orbit."

"text": "\"The phenomenon we call \"\"precession\"\" was discovered by Greek astronomer Hipparchus when he compared his own circa 200 BC records with older charts. What he saw was that the equinoxes in his day (where the sun's path crosses the celestial equator) were in a different position among the stars than the 150-year-old comparison charts showed. This is due to a gyroscopic wobble of earth's spin axis that takes 26000 years to complete. In this wobble motion, the tilt of the earth stays roughly constant at 23.4 degrees but the orientation is always changing. One consequence of precession is that the north star Polaris is drifting. It is only \"\"north star\"\" by coincidence today. Vega will be our north star for a time in the distant future. Another consequence is that precession introduces a difference between a sidereal (real) year and a tropical (by the sun) year because during the course of one year the position of the equinox changes slightly. The physical cause of the precession is a torque (twisting) of the earth, caused mostly by the sun's and the moon's gravity pulling on the equatorial bulges of the earth. If earth were NOT spinning, the sun and moon would pull the earth so that the bulges were flat in the sun-earth orbital plane."

Quote: By analyzing the magnetic composition of ancient sediments found in the remote Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard, Princeton University's Adam Maloof has lent credence to a 140-year-old theory regarding the way the Earth might restore its own balance if an unequal distribution of weight ever developed in its interior or on its surface."

Over the course of a year in the northern hemisphere, we see gradual increases in daily and monthly average temperatures as winter eases into spring and summer and watch them fall again as summer turns to autumn and then back to winter. When we look at temperature on a regional or global scale over the course of many years, climatic patterns emerge. Throughout its history, Earth has experienced several periodic swings in climate. For example, Earth was entirely ice-free and temperatures were hot enough for turtles and palm trees to thrive at the poles during the Early Eocene Climatic Optimum around 49 million years ago. On the other hand, during the Last Glacial Maximum, which occurred between 26,500 and 19,000 years ago, ice sheets covered nearly one third of Earth's surface. Today, we are somewhere in between extremes. Snow and ice exist year round near the poles and seasonally at lower latitudes.

Instead of a complete rim, four point masses, A, B, C, D, represent the areas of the rim that are most important in visualizing how a gyro works. The bottom axis is held stationary but can pivot in all directions. When a tilting force is applied to the top axis, point A is sent in an upward direction and C goes in a downward direction. FIG 1."

Earth’s Movements Earth travels around the Sun at about 18.4 miles per second while rotating on its axis at about 1,070 miles per hours.

Not only is the Earth orbiting around the sun, but it also rotating on its axis at 1,070 miles per hour (1,722 km per hour), the speed at the equator. It is, however, a common misconception that the Earth’s distance from the sun determines how warm or cold the planet gets. While it is true that Earth does have a perihelion, or point at which it is closest to the sun, and an aphelion, its farthest point from the sun, the difference between these distances is too minimal as to have any significant impact on the Earth’s seasons and climate. The average distance of the Earth from the sun is about 93 million miles (149.6 million km) also referred to as one astronomical unit or AU."

Two factors change during the course of a year to give us seasonal variations in temperatures: I) The angle at which Sunlight enters the Atmosphere and hits the ground: Fig 12: Angle of Sunlight Fig 13: Sunlight to Earth Our atmosphere absorbs and reflects a lot of solar radiation into space. If sunlight enters the atmosphere at a direct angle, as it does in the Northern Hemisphere during the summer, it will go through less of the atmosphere. Sunlight reaching the ground is also more concentrated. Sunlight entering the atmosphere at the Southern hemisphere at this time has to pass through more of the atmosphere and is dispersed over a larger surface area. This situation will be reversed in six months when the Northern hemisphere will be tilted away from the Sun. Fig 14: Summer and Winter II) The number of daylight hours: The Sun appears lower in the sky, rising later and setting sooner, during winter, when the hemisphere affected is tilted away from it. This decreases the number of hours for the Sun to heat the ground and lower temperatures result. Without the Moon to stabilise the angle of tilt, such seasonal changes would start to vary much more. Decrease the tilt to 0 degrees and no seasons will occur as neither factor above will vary with time."

One of those natural cycles involves Earth's orbit and its complicated dance with the sun. The first thing you need to know about Earth's orbit and its effect on climate change is that orbital phases occur over tens of thousands of years, so the only climate trends that orbital patterns might help explain are long-term ones. Even so, looking at Earth's orbital cycles can still offer some invaluable perspective on what is happening in the short term. Most notably, you might be surprised to learn that Earth's current warming trend is happening in spite of a relatively cool orbital phase.

At the end, you can test your knowledge with a brief quiz. Incoming Energy The sun constantly floods the Earth with radiation: light, heat, radio waves, ultraviolet waves, and all wavelengths in between. This radiation travels 92,960,000 miles, and the amount is fairly consistent, even though the sun goes through cycles of its own. But once it reaches Earth, what happens to that radiation is not actually very consistent across the planet. Case in point: some parts of Earth are cold, some are hot, and our seasons mean that different parts of the Earth are heated more or less at different times. Even though temperature fluctuates slightly during Earth's orbit, these differences have nothing to do with our distance from the Sun. Our planet's seasons and climates can be attributed to the fact that Earth rotates in motion about its central axis and moves in orbital revolution when it travels around the Sun. Rotation For much of human history, people believed Earth to be flat. We now know better."

Credit: NASA and Erich Karkoschka, U. of Arizona Uranus is the seventh planet from the sun and the first to be discovered by scientists. Although Uranus is visible to the naked eye, it was long mistaken as a star because of the planet's dimness and slow orbit. The planet is also notable for its dramatic tilt, which causes its axis to point nearly directly at the sun. British astronomer William Herschel discovered Uranus accidentally on March 13, 1781, with his telescope while surveying all stars down to those about 10 times dimmer than can be seen by the naked eye. One \"\"star\"\" seemed different, and within a year Uranus was shown to follow a planetary orbit. Uranus was named after the Greek sky deity Ouranos, the earliest of the lords of the heavens. It is the only planet to be named after a Greek god rather than a Roman one. Before the name was settled on, many names had been proposed for the new planet, including Hypercronius (\"\"above Saturn\"\"), Minerva (the Roman goddess of wisdom), and Herschel, after its discoverer. To flatter King George III of England, Herschel himself offered Georgium Sidus (\"\"The Georgian Planet\"\") as a name, but that idea was unpopular outside of England and George's native Hanover."

"text": "Rahul Patel, works at Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India Answered May 6, 2016 · Author has 586 answers and 3.5m answer views The tilt of the Earth's spin axis with respect to the plane of its orbit about the sun (the ecliptic plane) is important for a habitable Earth. The Earth's spin axis is tilted 23.5° with respect to the ecliptic, giving moderate seasons and preventing temperature extremes anywhere on the planet. Earth's obliquity may have been reasonably accurately measured as early as 1100 BC in India and China. The ancient Greeks had good measurements of the obliquity since about 350 BC, when Pytheas of Marseilles measured the shadow of a gnomon at the summer solstice. About 830 AD, the Caliph Al-Mamun Baghdad directed his astronomers to measure the obliquity, and the result was used in the Arab world for many years. It was widely believed, during the Middle Age that both precession and Earth's obliquity oscillated around a mean value, with a period of 672 years, an idea known as trepidation of the equinoxes. Perhaps the first to realize this was incorrect (during historic time) was Ibn al-Shatir in the fourteenth century and the first to realize that the obliquity is decreasing at a relatively constant rate was Fracastoro in 1538. The first accurate, modern, western observations of the obliquity were probably those of Tycho Brahe from Denmark, about 1584, although observations by several others, including al-Ma'mun , al-Tusi,Purbach ,Regiomontanus and Walther, could have provided similar information.560 Views · View Upvoterspromoted by Truth Finder Have you ever googled yourself?

Generally, Mathematics can be defined as the study of measurement, properties and relationships, of quantities and sets, using numbers and symbols. This subject is gaining more popularity as we are becoming more technologically advanced. It is further divided into two branches; Applied Mathematics and Pure Mathematics. In Applied Mathematics, the application of Mathematical knowledge is combined with other fields such as Engineering, Natural Science, Medicine, Social Science etc. It has helped in the development of entirely new disciplines such as Statistics and Game Theory. The other branch is Pure Mathematics, which is mathematics in its own right based on reason rather than application. Mathematics develops and enhances our reasoning and technical skill besides helping us to get a deep understanding of logic.

She selects a sample of 300 college students from three local universities and has them take the test. After the students complete the test, Lila asks all 300 participants to complete a follow-up questionnaire. In the questionnaire, Lila asks the participants what they think the purpose of the test is, what construct they believe is being measured, and whether or not they feel the assessment was an adequate measure of their mathematical ability. After analyzing the follow-up results, Lila finds that most of the participants agree that Lila's assessment accurately measures their mathematical ability.

It has had significant impact on math and science education in the world over the last 20 years. Its impact on the U.

According to the TIMSS 2015 Encyclopedia: In the late 1990s, when the results of the Third International Mathematics and Science Study were released, TIMSS became a standard policy citation to emphasize that US student performance in mathematics and science was not leading the world. Between 1999 and 2002, state and national educational reformers across the country regularly used the results of TIMSS 1995 and TIMSS 1999 to make this point in editorials and articles. i During these years, more than three dozen congressional statements, debates, and bills cited TIMSS results to justify passing specific education bills, or to call for reforms in education to keep the United States internationally competitive.

Future math teachers also need solid communication skills and listening abilities. Teachers plan lessons, deliver instruction, evaluate student work, and assess student progress. Teaching high school math may be quite challenging, since this required subject is difficult for some. Students who feel stressed may become unruly, and good teachers must find ways to circumvent those behaviors. High school teachers typically get the summer months off, unless they teach summer school. The minimum level of education needed to become a high school math teacher is a bachelor's degree with concentrations in education and mathematics. Although requirements vary by state, student teaching and a passing score on a battery of examinations are necessary for gaining teacher certification to teach in public schools."

We will also learn how to convert mixed numbers to fractional notation. Choices If you had a choice between eating 1 1/3 of a candy bar or 4/3 of a candy bar, which would you choose? Did you know that a mixed number (like 1 1/3) and an improper fraction (like 4/3) can represent the exact same amount? These two numbers are equal, so no matter which one you chose, you would have the same amount of candy bar! This lesson will show you why this is true and how to convert mixed numbers to improper fractions. What Is Fractional Notation? We use fractions when we are referring to a part of a whole instead of a whole number."

S. students, especially groups defined by socioeconomic status (SES), race / ethnicity and gender. The achievement gap can be observed on a variety of measures, including standardized test scores, grade point average, dropout rates, and college enrollment and completion rates. While this article focuses on the achievement gap in the United States, the gap in achievement between lower income students and higher income students exists in all nations [1] and it has been studied extensively in the U. S. and other countries, including the U. K. [2] Various other gaps between groups exist around the globe as well. Research into the causes of the disparity in academic achievement between students from different socioeconomoic and racial backgrounds has been ongoing since the 1966 publication of the Coleman Report (officially titled \"\"Equality of Educational Opportunity\"\"), commissioned by the U. S. Department of Education, which found that a combination of home, community, and in-school factors have an impact on academic performance and contribute to the achievement gap. According to American educational psychologist David Berliner, home and community environments have a stronger impact on school achievement than in-school factors, in part, because students spend more time outside of school than in school. In addition, the out-of-school factors influencing academic performance differ significantly between children living in poverty and children from middle-income households. [ 3] [4]The achievement gap, as reported in trend data collected by the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), has become a focal point of education reform efforts by a number of nonprofit organizations and advocacy groups. Attempts to minimize the achievement gap by improving equality of access to educational opportunities have been numerous but fragmented, such as affirmative action, multicultural education, finance equalization, [ clarification needed] and interventions to improve school testing, teacher quality and accountability.

"text": "Paleontologists study the record of life on Earth left as fossils. More than 99 percent of all species that have ever lived are extinct, so paleontologists will not run out of work any time soon. Paleontological research includes working out the relationships between extinct animals and plants and their living relatives. We reconstruct early communities and their environments and try to understand the changes that have led to those of the present day. We study major extinction events of the past in the hope of applying our conclusions to extinction in the modern world as global climates and environments change. Field work Most paleontologists spend a lot of time in the field to collect the fossils that they study. Field work can be done anywhere from a remote mountaintop to a local quarry. At every site, the rock succession is surveyed so that the position of each fossil collection (white bags) can be accurately determined. The rocks are also studied to provide information on the environments that the fossils once lived in. Almost every research project in paleontology starts with basic information about which animals and plants lived when and where."

Take the report last month that Spinosaurus is now officially the biggest carnivorous dinosaur known to science. This two-legged beast actually strode onto the fossil scene in 1915 when a specimen was described by German paleontologist Ernst Stromer. He figured this theropod (defined as a two-legged carnivore) was bigger than Tyrannosaurus rex, but the original Spinosaurus bones were destroyed by Allied bombs in 1944. So the T. rex reigned as the king size, carnivorous land beast for decades. Then along came Giganotosaurus 11 years ago. Now Cristiano Dal Sasso of the Civil Natural History Museum in Milan says Giganotosaurus has been dethroned based on estimates from a new Spinosaurus skull."

By Rachel Brown PUBLISHED May 2, 2017In its time, about 125 million years ago, it must not have seemed remarkable. Jianianhualong tengi was just over three feet long and weighed about as much as a Chihuahua—hardly a match for many of its Cretaceous contemporaries. But a recent study of this diminutive dinosaur could have an outsized impact on scientists’ understanding of how feathers evolved. Unearthed in Lioaning, China, the well-preserved fossil represents a new species of troodontid, a family of bird-like dinosaurs. The area in which it was discovered—the Jehol Group, a range of Cretaceous fossils famous for their biodiversity and preservation of stunning detail—has yielded a host of new species in previous years. What makes Jianianhualong tengi stand out is its asymmetrical feathers, which have long, stiff quills and barbs that are longer on one side than the other.

But new research illuminates the long series of evolutionary changes that made the transformation possible By Emily Singer, Quanta Magazine on June 12, 2015As dinosaurs morphed into birds, they shrank dramatically and adopted a more babylike skull shape. Shown left to right: Velociraptor, a dinosaur of the class that gave rise to birds; Archaeopteryx, often called the first bird; and a modern chicken and pigeon. Credit: Credit: Katherine Taylor for Quanta Magazine From Quanta Magazine ( find original story here ). Modern birds descended from a group of two-legged dinosaurs known as theropods, whose members include the towering Tyrannosaurus rex and the smaller velociraptors. The theropods most closely related to avians generally weighed between 100 and 500 pounds — giants compared to most modern birds — and they had large snouts, big teeth, and not much between the ears. A velociraptor, for example, had a skull like a coyote’s and a brain roughly the size of a pigeon’s. For decades, paleontologists’ only fossil link between birds and dinosaurs was archaeopteryx, a hybrid creature with feathered wings but with the teeth and long bony tail of a dinosaur. These animals appeared to have acquired their birdlike features — feathers, wings and flight — in just 10 million years, a mere flash in evolutionary time. “ Archaeopteryx seemed to emerge fully fledged with the characteristics of modern birds,” said Michael Benton, a paleontologist at the University of Bristol in England."

"text": "A paleontologist is a scientist who studies the history of organic life on Earth with a focus on organisms that existed in the distant past. Many people associate paleontologists with the study of dinosaurs. While not incorrect, the field is actually much broader than this — researchers typically deal with the fossilized remains of all kinds of organisms, including plants and cell life. The specific work of any given paleontologist varies depending on personal interest and setting, but usually involves a combination of field work, research and lab identification, and scholarly writing and publications. Field Work Many paleontologists work “in the field,” which is essentially a fancy name for “outside,” usually at defined digs or sites where fossils are believed to be buried. This sort of work often requires a lot of travel, and can involve many weeks of intensive, time-consuming study out of doors. Paleontologists who uncover fossils must take care to unearth them gently, preserving as much of the original as possible. Fragments and particles are useful, but whole specimens are usually considered treasures. Ad Field work typically incorporates elements of geology and biology as well as straight paleontology. Scientists need to have an appreciation for the different striations and soil conditions, which falls under geology; basic biological principles are often important for helping to set the scene and in dating and identification tasks."

The predatory sea creature, dubbed Megamastax amblyodus, which means \"\"big mouth, blunt teeth,\"\" prowled the oceans about 423 million years ago and used its flat teeth for crushing the shells of its slow-moving, hard-shelled prey. Age of fishes The new species ruled the seas during a period known as the Devonian, or the Age of Fish, which occurred between 416 million and 358 million years ago. The Devonian period saw the rise of some of Earth's largest vertebrate predators, including the terrifying Dunkleosteus, a massive predatory fish that could grow to be 33 feet (10 meters) long. [ T. rex of the Seas: A Mosasaur Gallery]But most of the fossil vertebrates unearthed from the early Devonian, or what's known as the Silurian period, were relatively small, with the largest uncovered fossil being just 14 inches (35 centimeters) long. Some climate models have suggested that the period was characterized by low atmospheric oxygen levels, or hypoxia. Existing \"\"marine fishes in general are also known to be less tolerant of hypoxic conditions than many marine invertebrates,\"\" the researchers wrote in the study. \"\" This suggests that low oxygen levels would have imposed some degree of extrinsic constraint on the maximum body size and available niche opportunities of the earliest gnathostomes,\"\" or jawed vertebrates.

"text": "Back to Career Search Paleontologist Description Most people think of dinosaurs and the Flintstones when they hear the word paleontology, yet it is actually the study of fossils. A fossil is defined as any trace of a past life form, such as bones, shells, plants, tracks, trails and even coprolites (fossil feces), which may be preserved. Paleontologists study fossils that existed as life forms in geologic and prehistoric times to try and reconstruct the history of the Earth by comparing the fossils to existing life forms today. Some people confuse paleontogists with archaeologists and anthropologists, however the main difference is that paleontology does not usually deal with artifacts made by humans. The basis of this discipline is rooted in geology and all natural formations from the Earth. Paleontologists study fossils for a variety of purposes, like establishing relative age, petroleum exploration and the study of evolution and ancient environments. Interestingly, there are a number of natural resources derived from fossils, including coal, oil and peat, which come from fossil plant material and hence the name fossil fuels. Paleontologists who work in the petroleum industry use fossils to interpret sequences of sedimentary rocks and make accurate geological maps, which are essential for finding oil, water and minerals. Studying and identifying rock layers that contain fossils requires an in-depth knowledge of igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rock. Paleontologists study these three types of rocks because they contain fossilized life."

A horned, frilled ceratopsian sporting a hairdo worthy of a 1950's TV evangelist?01of 10Amargasaurus Amargasaurus (Nobu Tamura). As sauropods go, Amargasaurus was a true runt: this early Cretaceous dinosaur measured a scant 30 feet long from head to tail and weighed only two or three tons. What really set it apart, though, were the prickly spines lining its neck, which appear to have evolved as a sexually selected characteristic (that is, males with more prominent spines were more attractive to females during mating season). It's also possible that the spines of Amargasaurus supported a thin flap of skin or fatty flesh, similar to the back sail of the slightly later meat-eating dinosaur Spinosaurus .02of 10Concavenator Concavenator (Raul Martin). Concavenator is a truly weird dinosaur for two reasons, the first obvious at a glance, the second requiring more careful inspection. First, this meat-eater was equipped with a strange, triangular hump in the center of its back, which may have supported an ornate sail of skin and bone, or may just have been, well, a strange, triangular hump. Second, Concavenator's forearms were decorated with \"\"quill knobs,\"\" which likely sprouted colorful feathers during mating season; otherwise, this early Cretaceous theropod was presumably as lizard-skinned as an Allosaurus .03of 10Kosmoceratops Kosmoceratops (University of Utah)."

"text": "\"Educational Pterosaurs—Lords of the Ancient Skies Read a National Geographic magazine article about pterosaurs, the largest animals that ever flew, and get information, facts, and more about these prehistoric flying reptiles. Parallel fibers that stiffened a pterosaur's wing membrane—each just two-thousandths of an inch (0.05 millimeters) thick—are visible in this fossil of a Rhamphorhynchus. The fossil was found in Germany's Solnhofen limestone beds, where incredibly fine grain preserves minute details. Photograph by Jonathan Blair Three flying reptiles from Earth's distant past glide above the gray Pacific, far beyond the rollers breaking on the shore of Point Reyes, California. They flap their wings slowly for a few beats, gain some altitude, then turn toward the beach. One peels out of formation and dives into the water with a splash, sinking just as far as its shoulders to snatch a fish with its long snout. Then, with a few powerful wing strokes, the beast takes off, using its webbed feet to hop off the waves until it clears the water. As it draws near, the primeval pterosaur transforms into an ordinary brown pelican. Keven Padian, a paleontologist at the University of California, Berkeley, stands on the beach gazing at the birds through binoculars. Watching coastal birds helps Padian envision the time when pterosaurs occupied the same ecological niche, plunging for fish like pelicans, soaring like gulls, and pecking at the sand like sandpipers. \"\""

"text": "\"Science, Tech, Math ›Animals and Nature Why Did Stegosaurus Have Plates on its Back? Share Flipboard Email Print What was the function of Stegosaurus' plates? ( Flickr).by Bob Strauss Updated March 06, 2017If it weren't for its pointed, symmetrical, vaguely threatening-looking plates, Stegosaurus would be a completely unremarkable dinosaur--a bland, small-brained, second-tier plant eater like Iguanodon. Fortunately for its place in the popular imagination, though, the late Jurassic Stegosaurus possessed one of the most distinctive \"\"do\"\"'s in the animal kingdom, those double rows of tough, bony, roughly triangular plates that lined this dinosaur's back and neck. ( See also 10 Facts About Stegosaurus)It has taken a long time, though, for these plates to be assigned their proper position and function--or, at least, to what most modern dinosaur experts today believe to be their proper position and function. In 1877, the famous American paleontologist Othniel C. Marsh coined the name Stegosaurus, Greek for \"\"roof lizard,\"\" because he believed that this dinosaur's plates lay flat along the top of its torso, much like the armor of a crocodile. ( In fact, Marsh was initially under the impression that he was dealing with a giant prehistoric turtle ! ) A few years after this blunder--upon realizing that Stegosaurus was in fact a dinosaur and not a turtle--Marsh speculated that its triangular plates lined up sequentially, one after the other, across its back. It wasn't until the 1960's and 1970's that further fossil evidence was uncovered indicating that the plates of Stegosaurus were actually arranged in two alternating, offset rows. Today, virtually all modern reconstructions use this arrangement, with some variation in how far the plates are tilted toward one side or another."

Producers are responsible for taking a writer's script and using it to create movies, television shows, live theatre, and other artistic productions. The producer takes full responsibility for the project from beginning to end, makes all the final decisions, and is accountable for how the end product turns out.

Consonance is associated with sweetness, pleasantness, and acceptability; dissonance is associated with harshness, unpleasantness, or unacceptability. The terms form a structural dichotomy in which they define each other by mutual exclusion: a consonance is what is not dissonant, and reciprocally. However, a finer consideration shows that the distinction forms a gradation, from the most consonant to the most dissonant. As Hindemith stressed, \"\"The two concepts have never been completely explained, and for a thousand years the definitions have varied\"\" ( Hindemith 1942, p. 85).

The name mode is derived from the Latin word modus, \"\"measure, standard, manner, way, size, limit of quantity, method\"\") ( Powers 2001, Introduction; OED)Contents1 Mode as a general concept1.1 Additional meanings2 Modes and scales3 Greek modes3.1 Greek scales3.2 Tonoi3.3 Harmoniai3.4 Melos4 Western Church4.1 Use5 Modern modes5.1 Analysis5.1.1 Ionian (I)5.1.2 Dorian (II)5.1.3 Phrygian (III)5.1.4 Lydian (IV)5.1.5 Mixolydian (V)5.1.6 Aeolian (VI)5.1.7 Locrian (VII)5.2 Summary5.2.1 Major modes5.2.2 Minor modes5.2.3 Diminished mode5.3 Use6 Other types7 Analogues in different musical traditions8 See also9 References10 Further reading11 External links Mode as a general concept [ edit]Regarding the concept of mode as applied to pitch relationships generally, Harold S. Powers proposed mode as a general term but limited for melody types, which were based on the modal interpretation of ancient Greek octave species called tonos (τόνος) or harmonia (ἁρμονία), with \"\"most of the area between ... being in the domain of mode\"\" ( Powers 2001, §I,3). This synthesis between tonus as a church tone and the older meaning associated with an octave species was done by medieval theorists for the Western monodic plainchant tradition (see Hucbald and Aurelian ). It is generally assumed that Carolingian theorists imported monastic Octoechos propagated in the patriarchates of Jerusalem ( Mar Saba) and Constantinople ( Stoudios Monastery) which meant the eight echoi they used for the composition of hymns (e.g., Wellesz 1954, 41 ff. [ page needed] ), though direct adaptations of Byzantine chants in the surviving Gregorian repertoire are extremely rare. Since the end of the eighteenth century, the term \"\"mode\"\" has also applied to pitch structures in non-European musical cultures, sometimes with doubtful compatibility ( Powers 2001, §V,1). The concept is also heavily used in regard to the Western polyphony before advent of the so-called common-practice music, as for example \"\"modale Mehrstimmigkeit\"\" by Carl Dahlhaus ( Dalhaus 1968, 174 et passim) or \"\"Tonarten\"\" of the 16th and 17th centuries found by Bernhard Meier ( Meier 1974; Meier 1992 )."

"text": "Juilliard School: Acceptance Rate, Tuition, Requirements, and More March 3, 2015 by Bill Zuckerman 22 Comments Share Tweet Overview The Juilliard School, located in New York City, is one of the world’s most renowned music schools – in fact, it may be considered, by general acclaim, the most famous music school in the world. While Juilliard is deeply rooted in tradition, the school has lately embraced new initiatives forward, accepting a $5 million donation that will help music students promoting their careers in this ever-changing world. Juilliard began in 1905 as the Institute of Musical Art in New York City. After a series of name changes and associated parties coming in and out of the Juilliard picture, it became known as the Juilliard Graduate School in 1924. By 1946, it was given its current name. The school offers degrees in three distinct programs; Dance, Drama, and Music. All three of the programs have produced scores of outstanding alumni that have become accomplished household names in the world of music. Photo by CLS Rob For students with exceptional academic record and incredible self-discipline, the school additionally offers a highly selective five-year double-degree program with Columbia University, in which the student can receive a four-year Bachelor’s degree at Columbia and then receive a Master’s from Juilliard upon successful completion of the fifth year. The training of music students here is deeply rooted in an older world of European classical conservatory ideals. There are benefits and downsides to this type and model of training; that said, many students at Juilliard have benefitted from this pedagogy."

Consonance is associated with sweetness, pleasantness, and acceptability; dissonance is associated with harshness, unpleasantness, or unacceptability. The terms form a structural dichotomy in which they define each other by mutual exclusion: a consonance is what is not dissonant, and reciprocally. However, a finer consideration shows that the distinction forms a gradation, from the most consonant to the most dissonant. As Hindemith stressed, \"\"The two concepts have never been completely explained, and for a thousand years the definitions have varied\"\" ( Hindemith 1942, p. 85). The opposition can be made in different contexts: In acoustics or psychophysiology, the distinction may be objective."

"text": "How To Treat Burns on Hands With Blisters December 26, 2016 by Admin2 Leave a Comment The hand is one of the most frequently used body parts, which means that fingers and palms will often come in contact with dangerous agents that can injure you, including hot surfaces that can burn your fingers and leave it blistered. Everyday items can burn you, such as hot pans or burners, hot steam, and open flames. Depending on the type of the burn, there are a few major ways in which you can treat them at home, but if the burn is severe, you will have to seek medical help. Burns that cause blisters are second-degree burns, and make the skin look shiny, wet, and red. Third-degree burns go as deep to the bone and require medical attention, while first degree burns only affect the superficial layers of the skin, which makes it sore and red. Follow these steps to treat the burn blisters on your hands. Step 1Remove the finger from the source of heat as fast as you can. Most often your natural reflexes will take care of this step for you, but in the case of a hot liquid or a chemical, you will have to get rid of the burning agent as soon as possible to prevent third-degree burns that need a lot of professional attention to heal. Step 2Rinse your hand under cool water or bathe in cool water for at least five minutes, but preferably even more. This way, the cold temperature of the water will constrict your blood vessels and prevent the fluid loss of the burnt area."

"text": "Second-degree burns affect the epidermis, the top layer of skin, as well as the dermis, which is the second layer. These burns may be painful and are often marked not only by redness and swelling, but also by blistering. In many cases, a small, second-degree burn blister can be treated at home. This typically involves caring for the burn and then applying a bandage or dressing that protects the blistered area yet allows air to circulate to the burned skin; you may also apply antibiotic cream to prevent infection. The first step in treating a minor burn blister starts with proper care of the burned skin. This usually involves allowing cool water to run over the affected area for five to 15 minutes. Alternatively, you may soak the burned skin in cool water for the same amount of time. In some cases, it also helps to apply cool compresses to the affected area to help reduce pain. It is important, however, to use cool water and cool compresses rather than ice water or ice that is applied directly to the skin. Ad Once you have finished with the cool water or compresses, the next step is covering the burn blister with a dressing or bandage."

Burns are one of the most common household injuries, especially among children. The term “burn” means more than the burning sensation associated with this injury. Burns are characterized by severe skin damage that causes the affected skin cells to die. Most people can recover from burns without serious health consequences, depending on the cause and degree of injury. More serious burns require immediate emergency medical care to prevent complications and death. Pictures Pictures of burns Burn levels Burn levels There are three primary types of burns: first-, second-, and third-degree. Each degree is based on the severity of damage to the skin, with first-degree being the most minor and third-degree being the most severe. Damage includes:first-degree burns: red, nonblistered skinsecond-degree burns: blisters and some thickening of the skinthird-degree burns: widespread thickness with a white, leathery appearance There are also fourth-degree burns.

Burns that blister are second-degree burns, also known as partial-thickness burns. These burns involve both the top and middle layers of the skin. Second-degree burns are further categorized into superficial and deep partial-thickness burns. These burns typically appear red, characteristically blister and are quite painful. Second-degree burns involving one or more fingers require immediate first aid at home and followup the same day with your healthcare provider for evaluation and treatment.

In some cases the growth cells of the tissues in the burned areamay be destroyed. See accompanying table. Another classification describes burns as partial-thickness wounds in which the epithelializingelements remain intact, and full-thickness wounds in which all of the epithelializing elements andthose lining the sweat glands, hair follicles, and sebaceous glands are destroyed.

Here, we will look at how they develop, the different types of blisters and common causes of each and then we'll look at the best treatment options and prevention strategies for blisters on toes and feet. How Do Foot Blisters Develop? Blisters on feet develop when the skin on part of the foot is damaged, most commonly from friction. In an attempt to protect itself from further damage, fluid collects under the injured skin to provide cushioning and allow healing. This fluid forms a small pocket, known as a blister."

The burn area is red, slightly swollen and without blisters. First-degree burns are characterized by persistent but relatively minor pain and usually heal without problems. Long-term damage is rare. A second-degree burn is deeper and involves the epidermis and part of the dermis, or second layer of the skin. These burns cause redness and swelling, and the area is extremely painful. Fluid-filled blisters often form and the skin beneath is pink and moist; do not remove the blistered skin unless instructed to do so by a physician. Some second-degree burns may require a skin graft or skin substitute to heal. A third-degree burn, the most serious of the three levels, extends deeper into the skin tissues."

Most burns only affect the uppermost layers of skin, but depending on the depth of the burn, underlying tissues can also be affected. Traditionally, burns are characterized by degree, with first being least severe and third being most. However, a more precise classification system referring to the thickness or depth of the wound is now more commonly used. For the sake of this article, burns will be described by thickness. For a comparison of the two classification systems, see the table below. When burns extend through the epidermis and into the dermis, they are considered to be partial-thickness burns. The dermis itself is divided into two regions, the uppermost being the papillary region. This area is composed mostly of connective tissue and serves only to strengthen the connection between the epidermis and the dermis."

"text": "Hidden Knowledge The Order of the Illuminati: Its Origins, Its Methods and Its Influence on the World Events December 12, 2012 128The Order of the Illuminati is often at the center of debates about the impact of secret societies on human history. Is the Illuminati a myth or does it truly secretly rule the world? As the number of people asking that question has grown, facts about the Order have become diluted with misconceptions and disinformation, making objective research on the subject difficult. This article attempts to shed some factual light on the Order of the Illuminati by reviewing some of the most important documents on the subject. The word “Illuminati” is thrown around rather freely to describe the elite group that is secretly running the world. Most have a general idea of the meaning of the term but are confused about the concepts and the ideas relating to it. Is the Illuminati the same thing as Freemasonry? What are their goals? What are their beliefs? Why do they act in secret?"

"text": "\"THE MEANING OF THE SQUAREWe are more fortunate in Freemasonry because we possess a body of ritualistic work which defines many of our symbols in at least one way. This allows us to look at our symbols in two distinct ways, the first being in the way our teachings say and secondly at the common meaning given to the same symbol by the man in the street. The similarity is usually very close but the range of meanings in the outside world is frequently much broader.• When a new mason asks the question about symbols, \"\"what is that? \"\", or \"\"what does that mean? \"\", do we tend to back off? • Do we have the feeling that these are 'old' symbols that really have no meaning in our modern world? If this is the case, then we are in very serious trouble within our Lodges because the Charge at our installations very clearly states that \"\"...it inculcates principles of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols.\"\" We are also told in the same breath that to penetrate through the veil of the allegories and symbols is to understand the mysteries. While there is a far deeper meaning in the overall pattern of the craft, it is of great value to find some meanings of the individual symbols and to attempt to recall that meaning on each occasion that we see them. This creates the 'repetition' form of learning that begins to modify our life style to become that \"\"better man\"\" we all strive for."

Yet so many people neglect their heart, engaging in detrimental habits and poor lifestyle choices. Did you know that cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the US? If you are obese, have diabetes, smoke or have high cholesterol, then your risks for contracting the disease are high. But cardiovascular surgeons - specialists who operate on the heart and blood vessels -- encourage people to quit smoking, start exercising and eat healthier, which will result in a healthier heat and lifestyle. Cardiovascular surgeon performs operations on the heart and blood vessels of the body. There are a number of different types of operations on the heart, including replacement of heart valves, or bypasses of blocked coronary arteries. Specific surgeries include: permanent transvenous pacemaker insertion and follow-up care, cardiac surgery of the coronary artery (bypass), surgical treatment of valvular heart disease, surgical treatment of artery problems for lower extremity occlusion, and aortic aneurysm, surgical treatment of carotid artery problems and of lung and esophagus problems. If a person's heart condition poses a significant risk to their health and livelihood, surgery is the preferred method of treatment. Cardiovascular surgeons most commonly perform coronary artery bypass surgery, involving bypassing the blockage in the coronary arteries with a blood vessel taken from another part of the patient's body."

"text": "First Year Admissions FAQLaw School Admissions Council (LSAC)Profile of the 2017 Entering Class Admissions Office Intranet for Admitted Applicants General Information The admissions process at Antonin Scalia Law School, George Mason University is very competitive and highly selective due to the volume of applications and the limited number of seats in the entering class. Members of the Admissions Committee and Admissions Officers review and consider each application for admission in its entirety. Two of the primary factors considered in the admissions process are performance on the Law School Admission Test (LSAT) and undergraduate grade point average. Other factors that are considered include difficulty of undergraduate major, undergraduate institution, possession of advanced degrees, writing ability (as indicated in the LSAT writing sample and in the personal statement), recommendations, extracurricular activities, employment experience, demonstrated commitment to public and community service, leadership skills and experience, history of overcoming personal or professional challenges, other academic, and personal and professional achievements. The criteria for admission to the part-time, evening program are the same as for admission to the full-time, day program. Non-resident applicants receive the same consideration for admission as resident applicants. Before applying for admission to law school, applicants are advised to investigate the requirements for admission to the practice of law in any jurisdiction in which they intend to practice. Some state bars may require registration at the time of entry into law school. If an applicant has been a party to any criminal proceedings; been arrested, summoned, or charged with, or convicted of a crime; been confined to a mental, penal, or correctional institution; or undergone mental treatment, the applicant's ability to be admitted to the practice of law, even after successful completion of legal studies and graduation from law school may be severely limited in one or more jurisdictions. Rolling Admissions and Early Decision Program First-year students are admitted only in the fall semester."

Pedagogically, we are committed to the pursuit of knowledge, research, and reform. Founded in 1991 by former associate provost of education, Dr. Marilyn Mobley, this minor degree program is interdisciplinary for the benefit of George Mason University students. Comprehensively, this program allows students to experience the many people of African descent from subjects, such disciplines as history, literature, political science, women and gender studies, sociology, psychology, philosophy, music, dance, and art. Courses and faculty are drawn from the program as well as from other units of the university. Administratively, AAAS works closely with diverse members across the Mason community. Whether it be student groups, academic departments, comparable minor degree programs, or individual faculty members, we are committed to collaborative efforts. AAAS is progressive in not limiting students' opportunities to interact with scholars and social activists who research the past and present experiences of people of African descent in Africa, the United States, the Caribbean, and the Diaspora. Throughout the year, AAAS sponsors numerous colloquia, conferences, lectures (including the annual W. E. B. Dubois Lecture and the Sojourner Truth Lecture), Black History Month events and artistic performances that are open to the Mason community and metropolitan Washington, D. C., area."

"text": "\"Freemasonry & the Founding of the United States When discussing the Founding of the United States of America and influence of those who were members of the Masonic fraternity one may hear that all the Founding Fathers were Masons and that America is just one Masonic experiment. Well, when I was approached to speak at a local school on the subject of Masonry in American history, and I decided I would research and present on the subject on those men who were Masons and their influence during the Revolutionary War. The following images are taken from the Power Point presentation I created: Freemasonry is composed of degrees which one must progress through and which imparts lessons of morality and virtue. These lessons are illustrated by symbols. One of the early milestones in Masonic history occurred on St. John the Baptist’s Day (24 June), 1717, when four Lodges came together at the Goose & Gridiron Ale House in St. Paul’s churchyard and formed what they called the Grand Lodge of England. Freemasonry had existed long before the establishment of this first Grand Lodge, but this would lead to the formalization of ritual and the expansion of the Fraternity around the world. Freemasonry came to the American colonies from England, Ireland, and Scotland via the British military around the 1730s, but there are discrepancies of where it first occurred as there doesn't exist many records from that time. According to Ben Franklin's Gazette on December 8th, 1730, \"\"there are several Lodges of Freemasons erected in this Province.\"\" Contradictory to this we see that in 1733 Henry Price, Provincial Grand Master over all of North America for the London based Grand Lodge, granted a charter to a group of Boston Freemasons. This Lodge was later named St. John's Lodge and is said to be the first duly constituted Lodge in the colonies."

The French had kicked out the Jesuits, Louie XIV expelled them (sparked off by a dispute over businesses the jesuits were running), Portugal under Joseph III expelled them in 1759 (for alledgedly plotting to kill the king among many other crimes), Spain expelled them 1767 under Charles III. The most powerful Catholic monarchs in the world expelled them and demanded that the Pope suppress them. So in 1773 Pope Clement XIV suppressed the Jesuits FOREVER with a Papal Bull, and so Maria Teresa, the Hapsburg Queen, expelled them from Austria. The collusion between the Jesuit Order and Napoleon had to remain a secret."

Freemasonry is a fraternity that encourages continual self-improvement by association and contemplation with other men that have sworn to uphold a certain moral code. “ We make good men better” is a common motto. In answer to the question “\"\"What is it like to be a Freemason”, I answered with the following: What is it like to be a Freemason? Amazing. I have been a Mason since 1991 (I joined when I was 20), and I've taken my time getting involved, learning about each level before moving on. The men of my Lodge are my Brothers, and I am lucky to belong to a very active Lodge (over 400 members of which a quarter are pretty active, 50 of those VERY active - and we are growing). The youngest Brother I have is 19, the oldest is a Holocaust survivor and pushing 100 years old. My Brothers are there for me when I need help, and I'm there for them. It's part of the promises we make to each other."

"text": "The Illuminati Symbol, the Great Seal and the One Dollar Bill Reverse of Great Seal as seen on the one dollar bill The all-seeing eye floating in over an unfinished pyramid is the most widely recognized symbol of the Illuminati. The “Illuminati logo” is seen on the US one dollar bill, the world’s most-widely circulated banknote, and it is increasingly seen in movies, on television and other media. It has come to be recognized as the preeminent logo of the all-powerful and secretive Illuminati. ( see What is the Illuminati? ) What does the symbol represent? How did it get on the dollar bill? Is it Illuminati? The Great Seal of the United States The all-seeing eye and the pyramid first appeared on the reverse side of the seal of the United States in a design approved by Congress in 1782. Following the signing of the Declaration of Independence officially giving birth to the United States of America, a committee was formed to create an emblem to encapsulate the ideologies of the new nation. Pendant seals were commonly used to authenticate official communication at the period, so the committee, including Founding Fathers Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and John Adams, set about designing the two sides of the Great Seal of the United States."

To call them comedians is to ignore the elaborate, fascinating, seemingly death-defying tricks they pull off with apparent ease. No one else does what Penn & Teller do: put together painstakingly rehearsed stunts and tricks, and package those tricks with hilariously caustic, cynical humor. The duo's richly deserved popularity has led to numerous TV appearances (talk shows, a prime-time ABC special last fall, a variety show on FX premiering this summer), successful tours (the duo resides in Las Vegas, where it's a major draw, and plays two weeks in Chicago in the first half of June), and even a movie, 1988's Penn & Teller Get Killed. The Onion recently spoke to both Penn Jillette (whose interview runs next week) and the silent-in-performance Teller. The Onion: Ultimately, the two of you use your powers to entertain the people. Do you feel like you could be doing more for evil? Teller: [ Laughs.] Uh, well, there are a lot of people who have taken care of that. Yes, I could be in the Senate."

However, unique to the industry are tellers who perform financial transactions with customers. Most work full time from Monday through Friday. Some work Saturdays or extended hours if their branches are located in retail operations, such as grocery stores. Duties of a Teller Bank tellers handle deposits, withdrawals and other routine financial interactions with customers. They accept, count and disburse cash, enter information into computers, and answer inquiries about services. They must ensure that their cash drawers balance at the beginning and end of the workday. Because they maintain responsibility for the money that flows into and out of their stations, they must verify customer identities in certain situations, either through government-issued identification cards, or through signatures. Part of the teller’s job is to tell customers about their institutions’ additional financial products, such as certificates of deposit or car loans. Training to Be a Teller A high school diploma is the minimum requirement for teller positions, and employers look for evidence of basic math skills and familiarity with customer service."

Flanking him, he noticed his fellow crewmates had risen in turn as a response to the sudden intrusion. \"\" Wake up, ye slime!

"text": "\"Biography of William Butler Yeats William Butler Yeats (1865-1939), Nobel Prize winning Irish dramatist, author and poet wrote The Celtic Twilight (1893);Paddy Flynn is dead;.... He was a great teller of tales, and unlike our common romancers, knew how to empty heaven, hell, and purgatory, faeryland and earth, to people his stories. He did not live in a shrunken world, but knew of no less ample circumstance than did Homer himself. Perhaps the Gaelic people shall by his like bring back again the ancient simplicity and amplitude of imagination..... Let us go forth, the tellers of tales, and seize whatever prey the heart long for, and have no fear. Everything exists, everything is true, and the earth is only a little dust under our feet.—ch. 1, “A Teller of Tales”As one of the founders of the Irish Literary Revival, along with J. M. Synge (1871-1909) [whom he met in 1896], Sean O’Casey (1880-1964), and Padraig (Padraic) Colum (1881-1972) Yeats’ works draw heavily on Irish mythology and history. He never fully embraced his Protestant past nor joined the majority of Ireland’s Roman Catholics but he devoted much of his life to study in myriad other subjects including theosophy, mysticism, spiritualism, and the Kabbalah. At a young age he was reading Dante Alighieri, William Shakespeare, John Donne and the works of William Blake and Percy Bysshe Shelley, recommended by his father and inspiration for his own creativity, but fellow Irish poets Standish James O’Grady (1846-1928) and Sir William Ferguson (1818-1886) were perhaps the most influential. A devoted patriot, Yeats found his voice to speak out against the harsh Nationalist policies of the time. His early dramatic works convey his respect for Irish legend and fascination with the occult, while his later plays take on a more poetical and experimental aspect: Japanese Noh plays and modernism being major influences. While his works explore the greater themes of life in contrast to art, and finding beauty in the mundane, he also produced many works of an intimate quality especially in his later years as father and aging man of letters."

"text": "\"About J. Robert Oppenheimer Mark C. Carnes J. Robert Oppenheimer (22 Apr. 1904--18 Feb. 1967), theoretical physicist and director of the Los Alamos Laboratory (Manhattan Project), was born Julius Robert Oppenheimer in New York City, the son of Julius Oppenheimer, a wealthy textile importer, and Ella Friedman, a painter. Although the family was of Jewish descent, they had no religious affiliations. The boy, known as Robert, grew up in a sumptuous Manhattan apartment whose walls were decorated with paintings by Vincent van Gogh, Paul Cézanne, and Paul Gauguin. In the summers he went sailing at the family estate on Long Island. He became interested in mineral collecting and sent letters to the New York Mineralogy Club, which, unaware that their learned correspondent was only twelve years old, invited him to present a paper. It was a success. Frail and bookish, he fared less well among people his own age, who often teased and occasionally tormented him. In 1921 Oppenheimer graduated from the Ethical Culture School of New York at the top of his class. In the summer of 1921 Oppenheimer contracted dysentery on a prospecting trip to Europe. The illness prevented him from entering Harvard that fall."

As a young student, he was involved in a streetcar accident that severed his leg, requiring him to wear a prosthetic foot and leaving him with a life-long limp. Teller graduated with a degree in chemical engineering at the University of Karlsruhe and received his Ph. D. in physics under Werner Heisenberg in 1930 at the University of Leipzig; his doctoral dissertation dealt with one of the first accurate quantum mechanical treatments of the hydrogen molecular ion. That same year, he made friends with young Russian physicists George Gamow and Lev Landau, who then visited Western Europe. Teller spent two years at the University of Göttingen and left Germany in 1934 through the aid of the Jewish Rescue Committee. He went briefly to England and moved for a year to Copenhagen, where he worked under Niels Bohr. In February 1934, he married \"\"Mici\"\" (Augusta Maria) Harkanyi, the sister of a longtime friend. In 1935, Teller was invited to the U. S. to become a Professor of Physics at the George Washington Universitiy, where he worked with Gamow until 1941."

Hang and Mr. Minh, her husband, now have a year-old son and are very happy!The pace of change Modern traditional weddings in Vietnam differ significantly to those in the past. The most obvious change is the cost – the social pressure of ‘face’ leads some families to spend up to the equivalent of ten year’s salary. Another obvious difference is the average age of the couple. In the past, a groom of 20 with an 18-year-old bride would be considered an ideal couple. Today, education, a degree of female emancipation, and the need to pursue a career have raised the figures by five or even ten years for middle-class city dwellers. Working class couples tend to marry earlier. Contemporary beliefs The tradition of matchmaking has largely faded away, but most parents have firm views – were they to decide that the prospective spouse was unsuitable, most young people would accept the verdict and break off the relationship. Some young people seek the services of an astrologer in advance to determine whether their future liaison will be successful. If the result were negative, most would withdraw."

Usually a certificate or an associate’s degree will suffice, and most banks offer on-the-job training. Typically bank tellers need to be proficient in handling cash, and dealing with customers. Bank tellers are often seen as the ‘face’ of a bank, this is because they are the first employees a customer sees. So have good communication skills, and the ability to deal with people is a must.

Share Flipboard Email Print Image Source/Image Source/Getty Imagesby Karen Schweitzer Updated March 19, 2018An advertising degree is a specialized academic degree awarded to students who have completed a college, university, or business school program with a focus on advertising. Types of Advertising Degrees There are four basic types of advertising degrees that can be earned from a college, university, or business school: Associate's Degree Bachelor's Degree Master's Degree Doctorate Degree Although it is not absolutely necessary to earn a degree in advertising to break into the field, many employers prefer applicants who have some college as well as experience in advertising, marketing, or a related field. An associate's degree, which can be completed in two years, may be acceptable for some entry-level positions. Employers who are looking for advertising managers generally prefer applicants with a bachelor's degree in advertising, marketing, or a related field. A bachelor's degree program in advertising can usually be completed in four years. However, accelerated programs are available. Students who have already earned a bachelor's degree can go on to earn a master's degree in advertising, which is recommended for advanced positions in the field. Most master's programs take two years of full-time study to complete. After a master's degree is earned, students can continue their education in a doctorate degree program in business or advertising."

"text": "What Can You Do With a Communications Degree?09:15AM Jan 12, 2015 Savei 478 shares A communications degree is, as you may expect, all about learning how to communicate information effectively. Good communication is essential in just about every industry, helping to sell products to the public, maintain strong relationships with investors, clients and customers, and – not always as prominent but just as important – to make sure everyone within the business and outside are operating on the same page. Whether working among business executives or digital-age creatives, communication skills are very much sought-after, particularly in the modern world of business jargon, complex technologies and saturated markets. A communications degree will allow you to build awareness of how to communicate information to diverse audiences effectively, with specific business goals in mind. Strong communication skills are invaluable in order to provide meaning and resonance to the companies’ aims, and to present the company and its services or products in the best (and clearest) possible way to consumers, clients and colleagues. Often studied alongside media studies or journalism at undergraduate level, communications is also offered as a subject in its own right and can be taken further with a specialization at postgraduate level. Alternatively, you could start by studying communications at undergraduate level, before progressing to a master’s focusing on a field such as digital marketing. So, what can you do with a communications degree? Communications graduates have long been valued within businesses among human resources teams, helping to recruit, train and retain valued staff. Depending on the type of business your company conducts, there may also be room for communications graduates within customer- and client- facing departments such as public relations and marketing."

The most meaningful statement you can make about power production is that it all starts with cylinder heads that can flow large quantities of air. But having the greatest flowing heads counts for zero if the valves are not opened sufficiently or at the right time in relation to the crankshaft’s rotation, and that very important function falls to the camshaft. The problem is, if you are something of a novice at this engine business, just about everything to do with cams and valvetrains looks complex, and the truth is, it’s that and more. If cam and valvetrain design at the top level is in your future, you had better thinkin terms of a Ph. D. in mechanical engineering. OK, so most of you are not looking to do that, but would like to understand cams and valvetrains sufficiently to make truly informed power-generating decisions. Being able to do so can easily mean choosing a cam for a typical street/strip small-block that will make 20-30 lb-ft and 20-30 hp more than your buddy who bought a generic grind out of a catalog solely on the basis of duration. ( If it’s bigger, it must be better, right?) If that 20-30 extra lb-ft and hp are important to you, then what you are about to read will give you the knowledge you need to get it."

STEM degrees appear atop nearly every ‘best majors’ list, President Barack Obama has made jabs at the usefulness of a humanities degree, and college dropouts have colonized the Fortune 500. So when unemployed English majors joke that no degree would be better than one in liberal arts—they might actually not be kidding. But there is life after liberal arts — just ask these 10 CEOs. From a self-proclaimed “completely unemployable” history major, to a B-average communications student at a No. 91-ranked state school, to a hippie philosophy dropout who wanted to fix capitalism, here’s how these formerly disgruntled liberal arts majors beat everyone else to the helms of some top companies.

This is a topic that we've touched on before and again recently. We think that Nissan might have been listening this time around because it almost immediately came forward with some extremely detailed range information that lays out exactly what type of mileage you should expect to get out of your Leaf. At a Leaf preview event in Japan, Nissan provided some of the most detailed range numbers we've ever seen and, dependent upon your driving habits, you may either be thrilled to hear the true range or disgusted enough to grudgingly take your $99 deposit back and look elsewhere. Applying the EPA's LA4 test cycle, also less commonly referred to as the Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule (UDDS), Nissan came up with some real-world range numbers for the Leaf. Here's an overview of the range variations we can expect from the Leaf: Cruising at 38 miles per hour with ambient temps of 68 degrees, you could squeeze 138 miles out of the Leaf. Averaging 24 mph in city traffic drops range to 105 miles, assuming air conditioning (A/C) is not in use on a 77-degree day. In heavy stop-and-go traffic, averaging just 6 mph with temps of 86 degrees and A/C on, range drops to 47 miles. At 55 mph on the highway in 95 degree temps and A/C on, expect range to be 70 miles. Winter temps of 14 degrees with the heater on, will drop range to 62 miles in stop-and-go traffic, assuming an average speed of 15 mph."

I am concerned about things freezing. I am concerned that the for sure vent/code application to run the drain after the s/p trap into the exterior wall to a T (up going to vent and down to drain which will run back inside under the floor) will freeze up here in the north where this morning it was below zero. Granted water will not stay in the drain but could it build up ice or such and be a problem?? I like the alternative method of running the drain after the s/p trap through the floor into a T (horizontal, downslope going to the drain, upslope going to vent) and the vent being routed into the cold then with a 90 degree turn up thru the roof. I don't think this meets code and I'm not sure that it will vent properly. Anybody know for sure? On another note about venting. Once I have a vent into the attic, why shouldn't one not turn a vent horizontal (slight slope though) at the highest possible point and run it over to the stack or other vent. That is versus making another whole in the roof and going straight up of close to it?"

"text": "Resources ›For Students & Parents Should I Earn an Advertising Degree? Share Flipboard Email Print Image Source/Image Source/Getty Imagesby Karen Schweitzer Updated March 19, 2018An advertising degree is a specialized academic degree awarded to students who have completed a college, university, or business school program with a focus on advertising. Types of Advertising Degrees There are four basic types of advertising degrees that can be earned from a college, university, or business school: Associate's Degree Bachelor's Degree Master's Degree Doctorate Degree Although it is not absolutely necessary to earn a degree in advertising to break into the field, many employers prefer applicants who have some college as well as experience in advertising, marketing, or a related field. An associate's degree, which can be completed in two years, may be acceptable for some entry-level positions. Employers who are looking for advertising managers generally prefer applicants with a bachelor's degree in advertising, marketing, or a related field. A bachelor's degree program in advertising can usually be completed in four years. However, accelerated programs are available. Students who have already earned a bachelor's degree can go on to earn a master's degree in advertising, which is recommended for advanced positions in the field. Most master's programs take two years of full-time study to complete. After a master's degree is earned, students can continue their education in a doctorate degree program in business or advertising."

By Sameer Kamat on June 9, 2013 Categories Tags With an increasing number of B-schools accepting the GRE exam scores, candidates with vague post-graduate plans may wish to opt for the GRE rather than the GMAT. This would enable them to go for an MBA or an M. S., dual degree program or even a Ph. D. Taking the GRE would widen their scope of post-graduate study options, so such candidates may feel the GRE a better and practical test option. But what about candidates who wish to apply only for an MBA program? Should they even consider the GRE or straightaway take the GMAT? It’s worth discussing how the GMAT and the GRE differ in nature and the advantages or disadvantages of opting for either. What triggered the GRE vs GMAT race It’s good to start off with some background and historical developments. The story dates back to 2006 when GMAT owned by GMAC (Graduate Management Admissions Council) which had partnered with ETS (Educational Testing Service) all the while to manage their tests decided to part ways with ETS and instead made a new contract with ACT-Pearson as reported on The New York Times. ETS which already conducts the GRE, now started making attempts to capture another big market by convincing business schools about accepting the GRE score on the grounds that they would be able to widen and diversify their applicant pool."

Media studies graduates often find themselves embroiled in discussions like this, usually as part of a vigorous defence of their chosen degree. Having only really taken off in the 1970s, media studies is still in its infancy and is often dismissed (ironically, in the media) as a soft option, but try telling that to anyone who has grappled with semiotic or deconstructionist theory as part of their degree. That said, course content can vary dramatically – some theoretical and others more vocational – so career options can depend on exactly what you studied.

With all this forensic technology, its no wonder that this field is one of the fastest growing in the U. S. Shows like CSI and NCIS have made most of the forensic science techniques used today common knowledge. You might think that virtually the whole gamut of forensic technology is old hat to today’s savvy viewer. In fact, there are a number of incredibly cool forensic technologies that you probably never knew existed.10 Cool Technologies Used in Forensic Science1. Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) : When broken glass is involved in a crime, putting together even tiny pieces can be key to finding important clues like the direction of bullets, the force of impact or the type of weapon used in a crime. Through its highly sensitive isotopic recognition ability, the LA-ICP-MS machine breaks glass samples of almost any size down to their atomic structure. Then, forensic scientists are able to match even the smallest shard of glass found on clothing to a glass sample from a crime scene. In order to work with this type of equipment in conjunction with forensic investigation, a Bachelor’s Degree in Forensic Science is usually necessary.2. Alternative Light Photography : For a forensic nurse, being able to quickly ascertain how much physical damage a patient has suffered can be the difference between life and death."

"text": "U. S. Zimmerman Is Acquitted in Trayvon Martin Killing By LIZETTE ALVAREZ and CARA BUCKLEY JULY 13, 2013SANFORD, Fla. — George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch volunteer who fatally shot Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager, igniting a national debate on racial profiling and civil rights, was found not guilty late Saturday night of second-degree murder. He was also acquitted of manslaughter, a lesser charge. After three weeks of testimony, the six-woman jury rejected the prosecution’s contention that Mr. Zimmerman had deliberately pursued Mr. Martin because he assumed the hoodie-clad teenager was a criminal and instigated the fight that led to his death. Mr. Zimmerman said he shot Mr. Martin on Feb. 26, 2012, in self-defense after the teenager knocked him to the ground, punched him and slammed his head repeatedly against the sidewalk. In finding him not guilty of murder or manslaughter, the jury agreed that Mr. Zimmerman could have been justified in shooting Mr. Martin because he feared great bodily harm or death. The jury, which had been sequestered since June 24, deliberated 16 hours and 20 minutes over two days. The six female jurors entered the quiet, tense courtroom, several looking exhausted, their faces drawn and grim. After the verdict was read, each assented, one by one, and quietly, their agreement with the verdict. The case began in the small city of Sanford as a routine homicide but soon evolved into a civil rights cause examining racial profiling and its consequences — an issue barred from the courtroom — and setting off a broad discussion of race relations in America. Mr. Martin, with his gray hooded sweatshirt and his Skittles — the candy he was carrying — became its catalyst."

If you are considering different options in law enforcement, then you might be asking the question “what is a criminologist?” A person who works as a criminologist is responsible for collecting and cataloging data related to criminal activity. They then use this data along with a psychological analysis to make criminal profiles that can help law enforcement officials determine why criminals commit crimes, and which type of person is most likely to be the culprit of a specific type of crime. High profile criminologists have assisted in the capture of notorious serial killers, but most criminologists spend their time making crime statistics based off of the information that they collect from crime scenes. A criminologist might work for a law enforcement agency, U. S. customs or a security company. Criminologists might also work as a criminal justice instructor. Education and Training In order to become a criminologist, it is necessary to obtain a degree in criminal justice. Most criminologists will get a bachelor’s degree, but some people with an undergraduate degree in criminal justice have found work in the industry. The main focus of criminology is psychology, sociology and constitutional law."

We are not a human resources site, but we do have first hand knowledge what would benefit a candidate for a career as an insurance adjuster.

Few if any colleges offer a degree in insurance adjusting; actually, we have never heard of one.

Back then, if you had a strong credit score and a big downpayment, that could make up for difficult to prove income (self employed income is typically more difficult to verify). They called those types of loans stated income."

According to Investopedia.com, underwriters begin their careers as underwriter assistants performing a variety of tasks, such as collecting information on clients seeking insurance. Although a high school diploma is required for most positions, a bachelor's degree in business, finance or a related field can be an asset. Main Responsibilities Underwriter assistants provide support to underwriters and independent agents. They may answer questions concerning a policy status or billing error on behalf of an underwriter or agent. Under the guidance of underwriters and supervisors, they may analyze applications and screen applicants based on certain criteria. Depending on the size of the company, underwriter assistants may ensure that policy transactions such as renewals or quotes are issued and changes are recorded correctly. Work Experience Many underwriter assistants get their feet wet through training programs offered through companies and insurance associations, such as the Insurance Institute of America. They learn common insurance applications and various risk factors. However, you can stand out from the crowd by getting experience working in the insurance and underwriting field."

USDA Loans have no down payment requirement, and Sellers can pay closing costs… meaning you can buy a home with a USDA Loan with PENNIES out-of-pocket! The payments and Mortgage Rates for USDA Loans are some of the lowest available. Because there’s no down payment, the Government does require a slightly higher credit score than some other mortgage programs. However, minimum Credit Score requirements for USDA Loans 2018 can no longer go below 640 for automatic approval. You can go below that for a Manually Underwritten loan. The program’s full name is the USDA Rural Development Guaranteed Housing Loan program. Most people call them “USDA loans” or “USDA RD Loans”. USDA home loans NC are insured by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Again, the USDA’s loan’s biggest feature is that it is a No Money Down Home Loan!Is the USDA loan program limited to First Time Home Buyers?"

"text": "\"Loan underwriters are individuals or businesses that evaluate and ultimately approve or reject a loan request submitted by an applicant. As part of the process, the person verifies the data provided by the potential debtor, including his or her employment information, references, and other data requested. Normally, underwriting also involves running credit checks on the applicant. Once the underwriter is satisfied that the applicant is a worthy credit risk, the loan is granted. Commercial loan underwriting takes place with many types of loans, although the exact process will vary based on factors such as the nature of the loan and current regulations that apply in the jurisdiction where the transaction is taking place. In any situation, the purpose of the underwriter is to determine if the amount of risk associated with a client is low enough to grant the loan. Some will only consider clients with a high credit rating and stable employment, while others may qualify applicants with less than perfect credit for a loan, but at a higher rate of interest. There are a number of different underwriting jobs in addition to commercial ones. Commercial jobs typically involve the evaluation of loan applications connected with businesses. In this scenario, the underwriter is not investigating an individual’s credit worthiness, but the financial reputation of the company."

Whether a plan is needed for you or a loved one, it’s extremely imperative to select the best possible policy you can, because it’s likely the last policy you or the insured will ever own. We focus on three key factors when attempting to find the perfect life insurance policy for an aging person: Value Product Type Company Selection You’re best served in reviewing your options in this order. We focus on value first because, at the end of the day, any life insurance plan is about leverage; pay less now for more benefit later.

Education As you probably expected, most lenders or banks will not hire you as an underwriter without at least a high school diploma. Do you need a college degree? I know several people who became underwriters without a college education. Most colleges do not have a courses in underwriting so college isn’t going to directly prepare you for the job. If you do go to college, majoring in accounting or finance will likely provide you the most benefit when you become an underwriter.

To practice, you must first take a training course, pass a test, and receive a license. State requirements for licenses vary. There are two levels of licensure.

Blisters caused by rubbing and friction can occur after walking, running or hiking long distances, especially while wearing ill-fitting shoes, or after performing other repetitive motions over an extended period of time; for example, shoveling dirt in the garden. Other causes of blisters, include extreme temperatures (either hot or cold – sunburns, heat burns, frostbite), chemical burns, intense pinching or crushing, allergic reactions and disease. What are the causes of a water blister? Chafing, rubbing or repeated friction of an area of skin are the most likely causes of a water blister. Most water blisters occur on the hands and feet and can be blamed on ill-fitting shoes and/or physical labor, especially the kind that requires gripping something like a shovel or a golf club. But friction is not the only cause of water blisters. Burns can also cause very painful water blisters, especially second degree burns, as can allergies and even some viruses like chickenpox or shingles. Blisters that occur on hands and feet are commonly classified as water blisters."

Exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays accelerates the effects of ageing and increases your risk of developing skin cancer. To prevent sun damage, use a sunscreen of SPF 15 or higher when outdoors and re-apply it regularly. Also, cover-up with clothing, sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat and seek the shade during the middle of the day. Sunburn (first-degree burns)Sunburn is skin damage from the sun's UV rays. Most sunburns result in redness, warmth to the touch, and mild pain, affecting only the outer layer of skin (first degree burns).

To help heal and soothe stinging skin, it is important to begin treating sunburn as soon as you notice it. The first thing you should do is get out of the sun – and preferably indoors. Once indoors, these dermatologists' tips can help relieve the discomfort: Put a cold, damp towel on your skin. Do this for 10 or 15 minutes a few times every day. That will help take some of the heat out of your skin. You also can take frequent cool baths or showers to help relieve the pain. As soon as you get out of the bathtub or shower, gently pat yourself dry, but leave a little water on your skin. Then, apply a moisturizer to help trap the water in your skin. This will help ease the dryness."

On the parameters of the damaged caused, and on depth and size of the affected skin, all burns are classified under three headings or degree's called first, second or third degree burns.

The third and most dangerous degree affects all the layers on the victim's skin, the muscles, the bones, and even the nerves including blood vessels below them are seriously burnt in such cases and scarring is permanent and death may also result. Tissue scarring is extremely serious and these cases are always emergencies with the victims life almost always in danger and extensive plastic surgery and skin grafting techniques have to be used to repair damaged and lost tissue, and to decrease skin scarring. The common causes of burns are almost always accidents involving spilled scalding hot water, a mishap with hot oil or grease, mishaps with hot foods, or cases of sunburns. The most serious burns can be due to fire, can involve accidents with steam, or with hazardous chemicals and acids.

Sunburns are never good news. Not only do they leave you red-faced and stinging, but they often leave lasting damage. Sun poisoning may seem much more serious, but it’s essentially the same thing. In medical terms, sun poisoning and sunburn are both referred to as photodermatitis, your skin’s allergic reaction to overexposure to the sun. In the case of sun poisoning, however, the reaction is a bit more severe and the symptoms may become seriously uncomfortable. A typical sunburn involves itching, redness, and peeling.

Here, we will look at how they develop, the different types of blisters and common causes of each and then we'll look at the best treatment options and prevention strategies for blisters on toes and feet. How Do Foot Blisters Develop? Blisters on feet develop when the skin on part of the foot is damaged, most commonly from friction. In an attempt to protect itself from further damage, fluid collects under the injured skin to provide cushioning and allow healing. This fluid forms a small pocket, known as a blister."

"text": "Sunburn is condition that occurs to skin that has been overexposed to the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays. Too much time in the sun without protection can result in heightened sensitivity, redness, pain, and even blisters. The best advice is to avoid it in the first place whenever possible. Many people fail to realize that sunburn can occur even when the temperature is mild, and even on days that aren't particularly sunny. Overexposure can cause problems later in life, from wrinkles to serious skin conditions. Using sunscreen every time you go outdoors will help protect your skin from damaging UV rays. If you do happen to get sunburned, there are various remedies you can use to soothe the pain and help heal your skin. Aloe Vera comes highly recommended, but be sure you purchase a product that lists aloe as one of the top ingredients. Always check the expiration date, since aloe is susceptible to losing its curative properties after time. In fact, the very best use of aloe is taking it straight from the Aloe Vera plant."

Even though many people know the importance of using a high SPF sunscreen to protect their skin, they can forget about the importance of lip protection in the sun. It is very easy to avoid sunburned lips by using a lip balm with a high UVA/UVB protection factor. However, what can you do if you have symptoms of burned lips? Even short exposure to the sun can leave you with sunburn on your lips. You may notice that a few hours after enjoying the sunshine, your lips begin to itch, feel warm and tender to touch. Even worse, later you may find that blisters have started to appear on your lips. Sunburned lips take about the same time to heal as sunburned skin. Fortunately, there are many effective home remedies to take the heat out of sunburned lips. Advertisement This article has the top 10 home remedies for soothing sunburned lips."

When a person gets bad sunburn on their face, the damaged skin becomes red, dry and often feels tight. The sunburn will peel as it begins to heal. Sunburn is actually a form of short-term skin damage. Extremely bad sunburns can cause temporary wrinkling and sagging of the skin. The reason people sunburn is because their immune system increases* blood flow in response to damaged cells in the epidermis. The increased blood flow is why your skin turns red. A signal is sent to the brain telling it that the affected skin is painful and burning. Sunburned patients also complain of feeling a continuous heat in the affected areas."

Because of variations in the intensity of UV radiation passing through the atmosphere, the risk of sunburn increases as you approach the equator. The higher the latitude, the lower the intensity of the UV rays. On a minute-by-minute basis, the amount of UV radiation is dependent on the angle of the sun.

Second degree burns affect the entire epidermis and upper layers of the dermis. Since more damage is caused with second degree burns than those of first degree burns, the healing time is quite longer. Some second degree sunburns require grafting and other forms of medical treatment in order to heal properly and minimize scarring."

By Robin Elise Weiss, Ph DUpdated March 11, 2018Share Pin Email Print Rubber Ball Productions / Getty Images An episiotomy is a surgical incision in the perineum (the area of skin between the vagina and the anus). It is also a large controversy in childbirth today. Episiotomies are measured in degrees — the most common being a 2nd degree (midway between the vagina and the anus) and the least common being a 4th degree (Extending through the rectum, called the episiorectoprotomy). There are also different types of episiotomy. The midline is the most common in the USA (it extends directly towards the anus), and the mediolateral is a diagonal cut toward either side to prevent tearing into the rectum. Dr. JM Thorp, in Episiotomy: Can its routine use be defended?, says, \"\"There is little evidence to support the routine use of episiotomy. This procedure may well increase the incidence of third- and fourth-degree lacerations. There are few data to support the premise that this procedure prevents pelvic relaxation. \"\""

"text": "An episiotomy is a minor surgical procedure where the skin and underlying muscles of the perineum—the area between the vagina and the rectum—is cut at the end of the second stage of labor (crowning) to assist in childbirth by enlarging the birth canal opening and allowing the baby to pass through more easily. Although episiotomies are common, they are not routine—in the U. S, about 60% of all vaginal births do not need an episiotomy. The final decision to do an episiotomy is not decided until you are ready to give birth. You can try to avoid needing an episiotomy with perineal massage, and listening to your labor and delivery team about when to push and when not to push.

An episiotomy begins with a local anesthestic (either a nerve block or an epidural injection) to numb the area where the cut will be made. Two fingers are placed between the scissors and the baby’s head for protection. This is followed by a one inch blunt-scissors cut, either a mediolateral cut (an angled cut to one side of the vagina to avoid the anal sphincter muscles) or a mid-line or median cut (a straight cut of less than an inch towards the anus).

Description Childbirth usually begins spontaneously, about 280 days after conception, but it may be started by artificial means if the pregnancy continues past 42 weeks gestation. The average length of labor is about 14 hours for a first pregnancy and about eight hours in subsequent pregnancies. However, many women experience a much longer or shorter labor. Labor can be described in terms of a series of phases. First stage of labor During the first phase of labor, the cervix dilates (opens) from 0-10 cm. This phase has an early, or latent, phase and an active phase. During the latent phase, progress is usually very slow. It may take quite a while and many contractions before the cervix dilates the first few centimeters."

They are placed underneath the skin, referred to as subcuticular sutures, in order to reduce the scarring along the skin edge. Once those sutures are removed, our patients are instructed to use a silicon gel spray twice a day for 3 months. This has been quite effective in reducing hypertrophic, hyperpigmentation, and keloid formation of postsurgical patients in my practice. During the first 14 days after a cesarean section, Steri-Strips may be placed in order to help bring the edges of the epidermis and dermis together. The subcuticular and subdermal closures will reduce the majority of tension on the skin edges which greatly reduces thickening and wide-spread scarring. Dr. Mehmet Oz, MDCardiology (Cardiovascular Disease)If you have a C-section scar or episiotomy tear, wash the wound briefly with warm water as often as you desire, but keep the wound dry otherwise.

Midwives are formally trained and fully integrated primary healthcare professionals who provide comprehensive care to women during pregnancy, labour and birth, and the first six weeks postpartum. Across the rest of the world, most babies are born into the hands of capable midwives. The term ‘Registered Midwife’ is a protected title in BC, and indicates that the midwife has met the standards to register with the College of Midwives of British Columbia, and maintains her status through ongoing recertification and training. What are the advantages of midwifery care? Midwifery clients experienced lower rates of forceps, vacuum extractions, caesarean sections, episiotomies, infections and babies born requiring resuscitation in studies where midwifery care was compared to physician-led care. Midwifery clients are encouraged to make informed choices about their care, and have access to all routine medical testing during their pregnancy including blood work, genetic testing and ultrasounds. In addition, midwifery clients benefit from knowing and trusting their midwives, with whom they develop a close relationship during pregnancy. Paramount to midwifery practice is that women feel respected and supported so that they are able to experience pregnancy, give birth, and become mothers with power and dignity. What kind of training do midwives have?"

Your doctor may make an incision in this area to enlarge your vaginal opening before you deliver your baby. An episiotomy used to be a normal part of childbirth, but it has become much less common in recent years. In the past, an episiotomy was done to help prevent severe vaginal tears during delivery. It was also believed that an episiotomy would heal better than a natural or spontaneous tear. More recent research, however, suggests that an episiotomy may actually cause more problems than it prevents. The procedure can increase the risk of infection and other complications. Recovery also tends to be lengthy and uncomfortable. For these reasons, an episiotomy usually isn’t performed."

Yet, most women fear tearing during birth and want to avoid it at all costs. While it might be impossible to avoid some vaginal tearing, it is possible to reduce the likelihood of severe vaginal trauma. Why Do Tears Happen? During the second stage of labour, the baby’s head descends into the vagina and moves down onto the perineum. The perineal skin (the area between your vagina and anus) must thin and stretch over your baby’s head. As the baby’s head begins to crown, the labia and vaginal opening begins to bulge and stretch around the head. If the skin and perineum have not stretched sufficiently then a tear can happen."

"text": "Shoulder Dystocia Written by Dr. M. D. Mazumdar, MDShoulder dystocia is a potentially fatal complication that can occur during the second stage of labor. In this condition, the baby's head is delivered normally, but the shoulder gets impacted (stuck) in the vagina and cannot be delivered. It is estimated that the incidence of shoulder dystocia is 1 - 1.5 % of all babies with birth weight of 2,500 grams (5 pounds 8 ounce). This incidence increases to 4 - 9 % in babies weighing more than 4000 grams ( 9 pounds 14 ounce) (from American Family Physician ). Causes of Shoulder Dystocia It is very difficult to predict the occurance of shoulder dystocia. But certain causes do predispose to this development: Big baby: The baby may be of a larger size due to hereditary causes. Diabetes, a postdated pregnancy that has gone beyond 42 weeks of pregnancy (postmature baby) and certain congenital causes like macrosomia can also cause the baby to be of a bigger than average size. A normal sized baby may also be comparatively big if the maternal pelvis is smaller than normal. Maternal pelvis: Abnormalities in the pelvis either due to diseases like rickets or osteomalacia, pelvic injuries due to accidents and congenital anomalies of the hips can lead to shoulder dystocia. Problems during labour: A prolonged labour either due to complications in the first stage of labor or the second stage can be a risk factor for development of shoulder dystocia."

Fortunately, there are plenty of answers to other questions we all have but are afraid to ask because they seem silly, scary, or downright gross. \"\" There's an awful lot about childbirth that is, shall we say, visually unfriendly,\"\" says Margaret Buxton, M. S. N, C. N. M., a certified nurse-midwife with the Vanderbilt University School of Nursing in Nashville, Tennessee, and a mother of two little girls. From placentas to mucous plugs to bodily fluids galore, here's what you always wanted to know about childbirth but were too mortified to mention. Q What if my water breaks in public? A. First off, only about one in four women experience their water breaking prior to the onset of labor, notes Buxton. And if you suspect that you're in labor, you probably won't be heading out to get your hair cut or browse for antiques. Even if your water does break unexpectedly, your amniotic fluid is more likely to leak out slowly than to gush down your legs like a raging river. ("

"text": "The Top 15 Questions After Giving Birth1. Will my period/menstrual flow change after giving birth? A. Once a woman’s period returns after having a baby, they commonly do not experience any change in their periods, since the body generally returns to its pre-pregnant state by the sixth week after childbirth. However, if you find that you are having problems with your periods e.g. a heavier flow or increased cramping, then it is a good idea to discuss this with your doctor.2. Can I wear tampons after having a baby? A. While most of us may prefer to use tampons, it is not recommended in the early weeks after having a baby. This is because your cervix or neck of the womb is still partially open and the placental site has not healed, making you vulnerable to infection. Wearing a tampon will only add to you vulnerability and increase your risk of getting an infection. Therefore, wearing maternity pads are the best choice. They are specifically designed for this time of your life and will offer you the best protection.3."

"text": "\"During the course of the 18th century the Dutch United East India Company ( Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, abbreviated VOC) had established itself as the dominating economic and political power on Java after the crumbling and collapse of the Mataram empire. This Dutch trading company had been a major power in Asian trade since the early 1600s, but started to develop an interest to interfere in indigenous politics on the island of Java in the 18th century as that would improve their hold on the local economy. However, mismanagement, corruption and fierce competition from the English East India Company resulted in the slow demise of the VOC towards the end of the 18th century. In 1796 the VOC went bankrupt and was nationalized by the Dutch state. As a consequence its possessions in the archipelago passed into the hands of the Dutch crown in 1800. However, when the French occupied Holland between 1806 and 1815 these possessions were transferred to the British. After Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo it was decided that most parts of the archipelago would return to the Dutch. Architects of the Dutch Colonial State in Indonesia Two names stand out as being architects of the new Dutch colonial state in Indonesia. Firstly, Herman Willem Daendels, Governor-General from 1808 to 1811 during the French occupation of Holland and, secondly, British Lieutenant Sir Stamford Raffles, Governor-General from 1811 to 1816 during the British occupation of Java. Daendels reorganized the central and regional colonial administration by dividing Java into districts (also known as residencies), each one headed by an European civil servant - called the resident - who was directly subordinate - and had to report - to the Governor-General in Batavia."

Static Code Analysis commonly refers to the running of Static Code Analysis tools that attempt to highlight possible vulnerabilities within 'static' (non-running) source code by using techniques such as Taint Analysis and Data Flow Analysis. Ideally, such tools would automatically find security flaws with a high degree of confidence that what is found is indeed a flaw. However, this is beyond the state of the art for many types of application security flaws. Thus, such tools frequently serve as aids for an analyst to help them zero in on security relevant portions of code so they can find flaws more efficiently, rather than a tool that simply finds flaws automatically. Some tools are starting to move into the Integrated Development Environment (IDE). For the types of problems that can be detected during the software development phase itself, this is a powerful phase within the development lifecycle to employ such tools, as it provides immediate feedback to the developer on issues they might be introducing into the code during code development itself."

( What the heck does this mean? ) Other people will define it in terms of what they believe it is about, saying things like computer science is using computers to solve problems. None of these definitions or attempts at defining computer science sit well with me. Why it is important to know what computer science is?

It is sometimes referred to as a quality difference, but it might be better to call it a suitability difference. The suitability of both porcelain tableware and ceramic tableware greatly depends on the situation in which they will be used. Technically, of course, porcelain tableware are just one category of ceramic tableware. Other categories include pottery, stoneware, earthenware, and so on. Ceramic simply refers to “any product (as earthenware, porcelain, or brick) made essentially from a nonmetallic mineral (as clay) by firing at a high temperature.” Colloquially, most people speak of ceramic tableware as any kind of clay product that is not porcelain. The categories can become quite blurred in everyday speech. However, the differences between various types of ceramic tableware simply depend on the clay from which they are made and the temperature at which they are fired. For your information, Java Porcelain uses the finest quality of formulated porcelain clay with the non toxic plumbum (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) ceramic glaze; burnt at the temperature of 1350 degree Celsius for the porcelain tableware and at the 1250 degree Celsius for the ceramic tableware."

"text": "\"How to become a sonographer November 30, 2017 | by Schools.com Editors Tweet Many people are familiar with sonograms (some know them as \"\"ultrasounds\"\"): They are used to show a fetus as it develops in a mother's womb. However, there are dozens of other clinical uses for medical sonography, commonly known as diagnostic medical sonography, beyond ultrasounds for pregnant women. The noninvasive nature of the technology makes it the preferred method for several diagnostic applications in the clinical realm, including viewing organs and monitoring blood flow, which a cardiovascular technician might do. As diagnostic imaging technology continues to improve, medical facilities are likely to use it to replace more invasive and costly sonography procedures, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). This is great news for aspiring diagnostic medical sonographers embarking on or refreshing their sonographer education. It means the career outlook for this allied health career is strong: 17 percent projected growth nationally between 2016 and 2026 for sonographers. That's more than double the national average for all occupations, not just allied health ones, and adds up to about 21,000 new sonography jobs nationwide. Here are answers to questions you may have about becoming a diagnostic medical sonographer. Learn about the field of diagnostic medical sonography in general, the amount of education you may need to reach your goals, and explore data around a sonographer salary. How to become a sonographer While there is not one set education or job path to becoming a sonographer or in some cases, an ultrasound technician, there are some requirements that all diagnostic medical sonographers or those in the diagnostic medical sonography field must follow."

An ultrasound is the name for the resulting image from the sonograph procedure; unlike X-Ray technicians, ultrasound technicians do not use radiation to capture images. Ultrasound technicians collect data, while ultrasound technologists generally have more extensive training and certification. They may also work with physicians to help analyze sonograph data, which can later be used to diagnose and treat patients. Typical costs: A certificate in sonography costs $5,000-$25,000 total and can be completed in one to two years. A one-year certificate in sonography from Mercy Medical Center [ 1] in Canton, OH, costs $13,000. The Mayo Clinic [ 2] in Rochester, MN, offers a 21-month certificate in sonography for $24,000. Associate's degree programs for ultrasound techs cost about $6,000-$40,000 total and may last two to four years. For example, Bunker Hill Community College in Boston offers a two-year associate's degree in sonography which costs $6,800 total for tuition and fees for residents and $16,600 for non-residents. An 18-month associate's degree program from San Joaquin Valley College [ 3] in Bakersfield, CA, costs $38,000 including books and fees."

Some of the most appealing careers in health care can be found in diagnostic imaging. Radiographers, CT and MRI techs, and mammographers all earn very good wages, and spend their days in a clean, well-lit work environment. They enjoy a noteworthy combination of high pay and strong job prospects, and their training is relatively brief. Two-Year or Four-Year Degrees Most sonographers enter the field through an accredited two-year educational program at a college, community college or training hospital. These provide a grounding in the basic sciences, as well as course work focusing on human anatomy and physiology, and the interpretation of ultrasound images. Most programs incorporate hands-on clinical experience working with patients, either as part of the core curriculum or by placement in a hospital or clinic. Some colleges offer a four-year bachelor's degree program in sonography. For ambitious sonographers, a bachelor's degree can speed promotion into management or supervisory roles.

I am FULLY accredited with the British Society of Echo cardiography and can legally scan and report my own echos and report other non-accredited sonograhers scans in the UK without the input of a Doctor. The BSE is a very intense 3 hour exam with a great deal of 'current' echo questions not like the CCI exam which was mainly questions on physics, stress echo and TOE! also with the BSE you have to submit a log book of 250 scans of varying pathologies including a report to show scanning competence and knowledge. The CCI exam really doesn't show scanning knowledge or ability, i wonder if it is a money making scheme?!? You don't have to be certified, but most places prefer that you are. Some insurance companies only pay for the scan if the sonographer is certified. You need to look at the ARDMS exam, not the CCI. It is preferred.

"text": "Employment is projected to grow faster than average through 2022 for radiology technologists and technicians. If you graduate with a degree in this field and have knowledge of more than one diagnostic imaging procedure, you will have the best employment opportunities. Even without that knowledge, a radiology tech can learn more procedures on the job with formal training programs offered by hospitals, colleges, and universities. This career can be exciting, as radiology techs can expand their knowledge to become leaders in this field. Specialization was the norm for most radiology technicians until recently. Radiologic technologists and technicians, referred to as radiographers, produce x-ray films (radiographs) of parts of the human body for use in diagnosing medical problems. These specialists must follow physicians’ orders precisely and conform to regulations concerning the use of radiation to protect themselves, their patients, and their coworkers from unnecessary exposure. Today, however, new procedures are taking the place of the x-ray, such as computed tomography (CT), fluoroscopies, and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). CT continues to become a frontline diagnosis tool. Instead of taking x-rays to decide whether a CT is needed, as was the practice before, it is often the first choice for imaging because of its accuracy."

Although the main reason for having an ultrasound is not to find out whether you're having a boy or a girl, you may be able to find out via ultrasound before your baby is born. Can I find out my baby's gender in a first trimester scan? The sex of a baby is genetically determined at conception, but during the early development of embryos, they all look the same. It’s very unlikely you’ll get to know the sex at a first trimester scan. All embryos have a small bud or swelling. It's known as the genital nub or protuberance. If you are having a boy, testosterone starts being produced when you are about seven weeks pregnant, prompting the bud to grow and develop into a penis and scrotum."

"text": "Things to Consider When Choosing an Ultrasound Technician Program Written by MATS Staff August 7, 2013Ultrasonography is a diagnostic medical sonography procedure that uses high frequency sound (ultrasound) waves to produce dynamic visual images of organs, tissues, or blood flow inside the body. This type of procedure is often referred to as a sonogram or ultrasound scan. Diagnostic Medical Sonography can be used to examine many parts of the body such as the abdomen, female reproductive system, breasts, heart, prostate, and blood vessels. Sonography is being used more and more in the detection and treatment of heart attack, heart disease, and vascular diseases that can lead to stroke. It is also used to guide fine needle, tissue biopsy to assist in taking a sample of cells from an organ for lab testing (for example, a test for cancer in breast tissue). Unlike X-rays, sonography is a radiation-free imaging modality. Programs to Consider: Kaplan University Programs available: Health Information Management Request information Education Connection Locations: Atlanta, GARequest information If you are considering a career in diagnostic medical sonography, or if you have already made that decision, you are faced with the important choice of selecting an educational program that meets your needs.

"text": "An ultrasound technician is a medical assistant or diagnostic sonography professional who maintains and operates ultrasound machinery in a hospital, doctor’s office, or health clinic. Ultrasound machines are used for both diagnostic and treatment of various medical conditions, as well as for preventive treatment. The main duty of an ultrasound tech is to make the physician or radiologist’s job easier by doing preparatory work or capturing images before the doctor comes in to see a patient. Ultrasound technician is a general term for someone working in the field of diagnostic medical sonography, which includes any use of sound wave-based imaging technology in a medical context. Some of the main tasks you’ll be expected to do in most ultrasound tech employment situations are: Patient Preparation: Escorting patients into the treatment room, describing the process of “taking an ultrasound,” taking images, and calling the doctor in when the preparations are finished. Results Analysis: Determining whether the image is of usable quality, and taking more if not. Summarizing the number, type, and content of images that have been taken, and keeping a record of the information for the doctor or radiologist. Equipment Operations and Maintenance: Preparing the ultrasound machine for each use, and cleaning and recalibrating it afterward. A professional technician will be needed to fix actual problems within the machine, but ultrasound techs do routine maintenance to assure that the machine is functioning properly and ready to use when a patient arrives. Record Keeping: Write down the details of each patient’s visit, from the type of images taken to their content and the diagnosis or treatment that was suggested or given."

These images are what doctors primarily use as basis for their diagnosis whenever a patient is suspected of any illness or health condition. Like most careers in the medical field, sonographers are pretty much in demand these days, especially since ultrasound is being considered by many as a viable option over invasive procedures or radiation-based imaging. In addition to this, the demand for this imaging technology will be increased by the growing population of the elderly. In order to become successful in this career, there are certain qualities and skills that you should have. First and foremost is effective communication skills – this is important because of the fact that you will be spending a lot of time explaining imaging procedures to patients. Your manner of explanation will be critical in helping patients understand what they are about to go through and in making them feel at ease throughout the imaging process. You should also be understanding and considerate with patients who go through the imaging process since there are those that are going through a difficult situation because of their medical condition. The ultrasound technician career is a very technical one because among your primary duties involve the use of imaging equipment. Besides having technical skills to operate sophisticated imaging equipment, it is very important that you are able to pay close attention to detail and follow instructions precisely so that you will be able to come up with the images required in order to help doctors properly diagnose and treat patients."

"text": "What a social worker does each day depends on where he or she works and his or her level of education. The services they provide vary widely. Direct-service social workers generally help address everyday problems from finding work or applying for government aid, whereas clinical social workers (licensed clinical social workers) generally help address mental health problems. Because their services are rather wide-ranging, they may be employed in a variety of settings including government agencies, nonprofits, schools, and hospitals. Direct-Service and Clinical Social Workers The different types of social workers often do very different things each day. Although all work to help people improve their lives in some way, the services they can provide often differ. The title held by a social worker can vary in different countries and even among states in the US, but two of the most common types are direct-service social workers and licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs). Direct-service social workers help people deal with the challenges in their day-to-day lives. The exact services that they provide depends on where they work, but this professional often works to find a client's strengths and weaknesses and develop a plan to achieve his or her goals. This can involve helping someone deal with a financial crisis, a housing emergency, or an expected medical diagnosis."

"text": "1: Take any accusations seriously. No matter how absurd or unbelievable the CPS/DCFS social worker’s claim (s) may seem, please understand that the social worker is dead serious, and most likely presumes – no… most likely BELIEVES that you are guilty as accused. Even if the social worker doesn’t admit that s/he is at your home to take your children, often times that IS EXACTLY why they are there. It is our experience, over 20+ years, that the majority of CPS social workers develop a cynical view of life and assume that you are UTTERLY GUILTY until YOU PROVE that you are not: the opposite of the way the “justice system” is supposed to operate.2: Ask what the accusations and charges are. Most typically, the CPS/DCFS social worker wants to keep you from knowing exactly what you have been accused of — sort of keeping themselves on a “general fishing expedition” — but it is required by state and federal law to tell you the exact details of the accusations at first contact with you. Be wary! Do not settle for the vague and general charges called “neglect” or “abuse.” Neglect and abuse are broad categories – not the legally-required “details” of the accusations or charges! You are entitled to know the “details & specifics” of what you are accused of committing.3: Say as little as possible. In fact – BE QUIET!In criminal law it is ALWAYS strongly suggested that you talk to NO ONE but your attorney."

"text": "LCSW vs. MSW (Master of Social Work)It is a worthwhile use of time to consider the differences between having your Master of Social Work (MSW) degree and taking the time to commit to full licensure in the form of becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). There are advantages and disadvantages to both routes that you will need to evaluate from your own set of personal needs and skillset. The clearest difference is that a Master of Social Work is actually a requirement to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in every state, so it might be more informative to consider what you can do once you have achieved your MSW versus what kind of opportunities are available once you have taken the necessary steps to gain full licensure as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. The following CSWE Accredited education programs require a Bachelors Degree. If you are seeking an undergraduate Degree or a tailored Graduate Degree, other than MSW, use the green button to exact match a program in social work or a related education field. Sponsored Featured CSWE Accredited Social Work Programs | Explore MSW Education Options* USC University of Southern California – School of Social Work - (MSW) Master of Social Work Online* Simmons School of Social Work - (MSW) Master of Social Work Online* University of Denver's top-20 school of Social Work - (MSW) Master of Social Work Online* Fordham University - Graduate School of Social Services The Master of Social Work degree requires two years of education beyond your bachelor’s degree and it usually makes sense to have spent your undergraduate period earning a Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) degree. With a BSW you have not only the necessary foundational skillset and baseline knowledge to quickly move into a deeper exploration of social work. Your Master’s degree also represents a chance to specialize your knowledge of the discipline, for some this could be en route to the LCSW title which we will expand upon later. For others, the Master of Social Work degree period represents time that can be spent gearing up for an entirely different career track such as working in Child Welfare or Social Work Administration. These particular specializations are a good example of how an MSW, while required to gain licensure as a LCSW, does not necessarily equate one-to-one with being on the road towards licensure."

But the toddler’s tiny feet didn’t carry her far enough to escape the notice of her foster father, Joel Shinpoch, who grabbed a handful of Emily’s pale blue shirt and gently lifted her back into the den of the Bishop home. “Are you being fussy?” Jennifer Shinpoch playfully asked her 20-month-old foster daughter as she whimpered. Jennifer then found one of the few spots on the den’s floor not occupied by a toy and sat. She picked up the mewling Emily and placed her on her lap. With a wobbly walk, Emily’s younger foster sister, Ruby, approached and leaned into her. The gesture perked up Emily, who kissed the top of Ruby’s head and then wrapped her arms around her as if to obey the “let’s snuggle” message emblazoned on Ruby’s pink shirt. The scene follows a breakfast of blueberry pancakes made by Joel as Jennifer woke her biological children — 5-year-old Jessie and 14-month-old Ruby — and her foster children, Emily and 3-year-old Jacob, who are half siblings. “We blame Jessie,” Jennifer joked about her large family. “"

"text": "\"Tweet Becoming a social worker means preparing to confront some of the most vital, challenging, and important issues facing our country, and doing so on a person-to-person basis. From dissecting the underlying causes and addressing the impacts of poverty, hunger, joblessness, and other social ills, to working to improve the lives of good people struggling with various setbacks, social workers bring assistance and counsel to people in need in a broad range of settings. They help clients navigate severe and/or chronic illness, substance abuse, divorce, and other family disruptions, intervene in cases of child abuse and neglect, and aid veterans in the sometimes difficult transition back to civilian life. They also work with children, the elderly, the disabled, and other groups that require special consideration and services. And, social workers can be instrumental in assessing eligibility for and directing clients to health care, food stamps, childcare, and other crucial social services. In the words of the National Association of Social Workers (NASW), \"\"They help prevent crises and counsel individuals, families, and communities to cope more effectively with the stresses of everyday life.\"\" Given that broad mandate, it's not surprising that the Bureau of Labor Statistics expects employment for social workers to grow at a faster than average rate of 19 percent through the year 2022. Indeed, as we'll see, the demand for well-trained, fully licensed social workers is even more acute in the healthcare industry, and in the realm of mental health and substance abuse treatment. Steps to Becoming a Social Worker Because of the serious and often sensitive nature of social work, becoming a social worker requires cultivating a unique set of skills through rigorous and targeted study and training.

"text": "Tweet Child social workers are the front line of defense, helping the children of families who are struggling with a variety of social issues, such as poverty, drug abuse, mental illness, unemployment, and homelessness. Their prime directive is to insure the health and well-being of those children, protecting them when necessary, and providing services that help their families. Working with children in these situations requires compassion, patience, commitment, and resilience. Typically, children are fearful and angry, and it's the child social worker's job to gain their trust, help them find the answers they need, provide methods for coping, and help resolve the foundational problems. What Does a Child Social Worker Do? Most child social workers work in family service agencies, schools, state agencies, or the federal government. Their typical clients are underprivileged children living in unsafe conditions who are at risk of neglect or abuse, or who have special needs, such as health issues or disabilities. They also work with children who have behavioral problems, learning disabilities, or who are in need of supervision. Some child social workers work in schools where they interact daily with kids providing caring counsel and support. They assist parents and administrators on issues such as truancy, bullying, substance concerns, and pregnancy."

"text": "Foster Care Building an Effective Partnership Between a Case Worker and a Foster Parent Ideas for Working with a Foster Care Case Worker By Carrie Craft Updated 02/15/17Share Pin Email Chris Fertnig/E+/Getty Images As a foster parent, I've had great relationships and not so great relationships with case workers. I've also been a listening ear to other foster parents and case workers as they attempt to develop partnerships. So, I decided to take a step back and really look at what worked for myself and my friends as we have tried to build working partnerships between foster parents and case workers. Respect is very important when working to build any effective partnership. The respect must be reciprocated both ways, respect for the case worker and the job they do as well as respect for the foster parent and the job they do. Often times communication problems between a foster parent and a social worker can be avoided if handled with respect and before a crisis occurs. Foster parents - Do you know the size of the case load of a typical social worker in your area? If not. Ask. Foster parents and Caseworkers - Do you know the amount of stress that goes into the day-to-day job of being a case worker or a foster parent?"

Hasenecz Social Work Today Vol. 9 No. 2 P. 30There are more than enough horror stories about social workers discovering children who’ve been abused or neglected within the foster care system or—perhaps worse yet—reports of social workers who knew of abuse or neglect and failed to address or report it. The investigations will go on, and the details of these tragedies will be dissected. But is there hope for change, and if so, what important strategies must be implemented? Social Work Today consulted foster care experts and, noting the recurring themes among their varied suggestions, gleaned the following five strategies for change.1. Strengthen Families of Origin A strategy experts firmly believe and urge as the first step before proceeding to other options in foster care is the need to strengthen families of origin. “ I can’t underscore enough the urgency of getting focused on family work,” says Carol Wilson Spigner, MSW, DSW, the Kenneth L. M. Pray distinguished professor at the University of Pennsylvania School of Social Policy & Practice in Philadelphia and one of 16 individuals who served on the Pew Commission on Children in Foster Care, a nonpartisan group founded in May 2003 to recommend ways to improve outcomes for children in the foster care system. It’s a mistake to separate the development of children from families, notes Tricia B. Bent-Goodley, Ph D, MSW, LICSW-C, a professor and the chair of the Macro (Policy, Community, and Administrative Practice) Sequence at the Howard University School of Social Work in Washington, DC. She specifically points to the need to focus on maintaining the family of origin, suggesting that better funding for prevention would be a good start."

Deepa Fernandes / KPCCDeepa Fernandes | October 14, 2014While debate rages on increasing the minimum wage locally and nationally, one unexpected group of workers earning close to the bottom of the scale stands to benefit if the floor is raised: preschool teachers. Although a college degree is required for many teaching in early education, it's not unusual for a teacher to get about $11.75 an hour or $24,440 for the year. That salary puts a family of three or more below the federal poverty line. The state minimum wage now stands at $9 an hour and will rise to $10 in 2016. But if the Los Angeles City Council joins Mayor Eric Garcetti in supporting an increase in the minimum wage to $13.25 an hour by 2017, the average preschool teacher could see an annual salary of $27,560."

This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers. Any opinions, findings, conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of UK Essays. What are the implications for social work practice? What more can social work as a profession do to actively promote an education agenda for looked after children? What might an individual social worker do? There is an inherent barrier between social workers and looked after children and young people. This has been formed over time because of a number of factors, firstly the turnover of staff makes it near impossible for children and young people to form relationships with the social worker, reducing their confidence in discussing issues that may be of a great concern to them. The status alone of a social worker's can prevent some children from wanting to discuss matters because of the societal stigma attached to having a social worker. The stigma is not something that social workers alone as professionals can eliminate, society can and only when society accepts that social workers are doing positive work, and start to learn about the positive work they are doing, through the media and other resources."

Now while this type of steak may seem straightforward to grill, its size can be tricky if you want a well charred crust and an even, warm pink center. It is for this exact reason I use a “reverse sear.” For my steaks, I take nothing to chance. Most steaks up to an inch thick can be cooked over direct high heat. However, thicker steaks need a little finessing. With an even “wall to wall” pink center being the goal, thick steaks cooked over direct heat will hit their target temperature closer to the crust much sooner than the middle of the meat. A uniformly cooked center is about impossible. To avoid this, and still reach our goal, use a two zone fire with all of the coals pushed to one side of the kettle and nothing on the other."

Dry heat cooking causes the exterior of the meat to brown and caramelize which gives the steaks a richly browned complex flavor. This is partly a result of the sugars inherent in the meat going through a series of complex reactions called the “Maillard reaction.” The moisture on the surface of the meat also evaporates and the juices become concentrated, forming the appealing brown crust. Purchasing Steaks: When buying steaks, buy the best grade of meat you can afford. It should be USDA Prime Aged Beef."

Use a combo grilling method for a combo steak: If cooking over charcoal (and I hope you are), set up a three-zone fire. Dump a chimney of lit coals into the grill. With a grill hoe or garden hoe, spread the coals into a double layer at the far side and a single layer in the center. Leave the section closest to you coal-free. Replace the grill grate. If using a gas grill, set it up for three-zone grilling.

However, not everyone in your family may enjoy steak cooked the same way. The cooking temperature of the grill, thickness of the steak and time spent on the grill all combine to create a steak grilling temperature that results in a rare, medium or well-done steak. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Considerations There are several factors to consider when grilling steaks to different temperature levels. The main factors include the temperature of the grill, thickness of the steak and the time spent on the grill. The most important factor, however, is the internal temperature of the meat. You can accurately test the internal temperature of the meat by using a digital meat thermometer. Rare For a rare steak on the grill, cook the steak to an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit. The internal temperatures for rare steaks are below USDA recommendations and are not considered safe. A rare steak will feel spongy with very little resistance when you push it with the base of your thumb and will have red in the center."

Today, you’ll see the name used to label chuck, sirloin and rib cuts, depending on which part of the country you are in. There is no definitive agreement as to what constitutes a Delmonico steak. The contemporary Delmonico’s in New York City uses a rib-eye steak. The grilling method described here works with other cuts as well. Delmonico steak is an excellent source of protein and iron. Although the meat is low in sodium, it is high in saturated fat and cholesterol and should be eaten in moderation.

Because it has long muscle fibers and little marbled fat, it requires proper cooking and slicing to bring out the tenderness. Flank steak is often used in tacos or fajitas, but when properly cooked, this flavorful meat stands alone in dishes such as London broil.

The acid ingredients in the marinade break down the connective tissue that is partly responsible for making the meat tough. Marinate flank steak in the refrigerator for up to four hours. Longer marinating times risk denaturing the meat and ruining the texture of the steak. A traditional marinade for flank steak consists of two parts red wine and one part olive oil. Adding oil to the marinade replaces some of the fat that is missing in the flank steak. For an Asian flavor, try a marinade made from two parts citrus juice and one part soy sauce, spiced with garlic and ginger."

Kenji López-Alt Profile Twitter Facebook Contact54 Printer-Friendly Version Gallery How To Grill a Gigantic Rib-Eye Steak Grilled steaks and pan-seared steaks are really two completely different beasts flavorwise, but as far as cooking technique goes, there are only a few minor distinctions. More Guide to Steak All the methods and tips you need to make perfect steak, each and every time. For one thing, the heat you can get out of charcoal briquettes (or better yet for searing—real hardwood coals) is far greater than what you can get out of a home stovetop range or broiler, leading to superior charring, as well as the singing of dripping beef fat which gives grilled beef its characteristic smoky, ever-so-slightly acrid (in a good way) flavor. It's a flavor you simply can't get from a stovetop or even a gas grill, both of which burn significantly cooler than coal. Going thick is always a good idea on the gril—you want steaks at least an inch thick or sol —it's the best way to guarantee that you get plenty of good crust development while still being able to maintain a nice, expansive medium-rare center. But ultra-thick, Flintstone-sized double-cut bone-in big-enough-to-serve-two-fully-grown-Thundercats ribeye steaks (commonly referred to as \"\"Cowboy Chops\"\") require a bit of extra care when cooking. Their thick size makes them all too easy to end up with a burnt exterior and cold, raw middle. Just like cooking indoors, the very best way to guarantee that you maximize that medium-rare center—you want to see pink from edge to edge—while still getting a nicely charred crust is to first cook the steak at a very gentle low heat before finishing it over ripping hot heat to sear its surface. It's better to do it in this order rather than searing first and cooking through after because a pre-warmed steak will sear much faster, minimizing the amount of overcooked meat under the surface (and we all know by now that searing does not lock in juices, right? ) Of course, all of our other tried and true steak tips apply here, including: Salt early and liberally, at least 40 minutes before you plan on grilling."

There are 3 levels of neonatal care, and a NICU nurse usually works in level III, which admits infants who require extra care, involving ventilators, incubators, or surgery. Often they are premature babies, but they can also suffer from other factors, such as infections, seizures, illness, birth injury, or the need for a blood transfusion. A NICU nurse provides direct nursing care and careful, diligent monitoring for these babies. NICU nurses continually assess their patient’s condition, checking their respiration, vital signs, heart rate, blood pressure, and temperature. Blood tests, urine testes, and x-rays may also be required and the NICU nurse will perform these or assist the technician. NICU nurses are also responsible for basic tasks like feeding the baby, changing their diaper, and if possible, bringing the baby to the parent for contact and showing the parents how to feed and change the baby’s diaper without disrupting any tubes or monitoring equipment. As a NICU nurse, you’d work closely with a healthcare team involving neonatalogists, respiratory therapists, occupational therapists, lactation consultants, social workers and pharmacists. To become an NICU nurse, you will need to be a currently licensed, registered nurse with additional training and nursing experience in the field or a related area of nursing. To become a registered nurse, pursue a CCNE or NLNAC accredited nursing program and earn either an associate degree or a bachelor’s degree in nursing."

Because it is new, there are great opportunities for nurses to devote their skills to newborns who need specialized care. Neonatal refers to the first 28 days of life. Neonatal care, as known in specialized nurseries or intensive care, has been around since the 1960's. Roles: A neonatal staff nurse works in either a Level I, II, or III nursery [Note: These levels of care are set forth by the Perinatal Regionalization Model and are also described in the Guidelines for Perinatal Care, 4th ed., published by the American Academy of Pediatrics and American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1997, Elk Grove Village.]. A Level I is usually a healthy newborn nursery—largely nonexistent now because mothers and babies have a very short hospital stay these days and often share the same room. Level II is an intermediate care or special care nursery where the baby may be born prematurely or may be suffering from an illness; these babies may need supplemental oxygen, intravenous therapy, specialized feedings, or more time to mature before discharge. The Level III neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admits all neonates (during the first 28 days of life) who cannot be treated in either of the other two nursery levels. These babies may be small for their age, premature, or sick term infants who require high technology care, such as ventilators, special equipment or incubators, or surgery. The Level III units may be in a large general hospital or part of a children’s hospital."

"text": "Perinatal nurses often care for women and children during pregnancy, including the important periods of birth and post-partum recovery. Nurses in a perinatal setting also care for the infants and families beginning with pregnancy and carrying throughout the first month of the child's life. Perinatal nurses are present during labor, offering a wealth of experience during this monumental time, and acting as a crucial resource should any complications arise. As a perinatal nurse, your job is to educate the pregnant woman about her unborn child and teach patients about good prenatal health. You may teach relaxation techniques to help expectant mothers during stressful times during their pregnancy, and may also teach family members how they can be supportive to the patient. You will likely show new mothers bonding techniques, as well as, and teach them how to care for their newborn baby, during the postpartum period. These nurses possess specialized skills and knowledge, and are a vital part of healthcare for women and children.. Whether you are already working in this type of nursing setting or not, if you want to learn how to be a perinatal nurse that is Master’s prepared, we can help. There are several different related degrees and perinatal nurse certification options, along with a wide variety of advanced practice options. If you are confident, compassionate and adept at making connections with your patients you may be a good candidate for a Master’s degree in Perinatal nursing. It is important for the perinatal nurse to form a trusting bond with the pregnant patient throughout the pregnancy."

When the Nurse Wants to Be Called ‘Doctor’By GARDINER HARRIS OCT. 1, 2011Patti Mc Carver, a nurse whose doctor of nursing practice degree entitles her to call herself “doctor,” meeting with a patient. Josh Anderson for The New York Times NASHVILLE — With pain in her right ear, Sue Cassidy went to a clinic. The doctor, wearing a white lab coat with a stethoscope in one pocket, introduced herself. “Hi. I’m Dr. Patti Mc Carver, and I’m your nurse,” she said. And with that, Dr. Mc Carver stuck a scope in Ms. Cassidy’s ear, noticed a buildup of fluid and prescribed an allergy medicine. It was something that will become increasingly routine for patients: a someone who is not a physician using the title of doctor. Dr. Mc Carver calls herself a doctor because she returned to school to earn a doctorate last year, one of thousands of nurses doing the same recently. Doctorates are popping up all over the health professions, and the result is a quiet battle over not only the title “doctor,” but also the money, power and prestige that often comes with it."

A master’s degree typically requires a year and one-half to two years of full-time study. To earn a master’s degree you usually need to complete from 36 to 54 semester credits of study (or 60 to 90 quarter-credits). This equals 12 to 18 college courses. Most master’s degrees are awarded by public or state universities. Compare Online Master Degrees The number of professionals with master’s degrees increased by 63 percent from 1996 to 2010.

"text": "Difference between a Medical Assistant and Licensed Practical Nurse Medical assistants and licensed practical nurses are both valuable members of the healthcare team. Both LPNs and MAs are sought to work in ambulatory care centers and physician’s offices because of their diversity of skills and valuable abilities. In some cases, the responsibilities of an MA or LPN may overlap. Though these professions may seem similar, there are distinct differences between the two. Medical assistants do not earn a license!A medical assistant may choose to become certified or registered upon completing an approved medical assisting program. Certification and registration are different than a license, and are not interchangeable. Practical nurses may sit for a licensing exam after graduation from nursing school. Earning a license allows the practical nurse to practice skills under her own license—though most states require that an LPN be supervised by a registered nurse when performing certain assessments or skills.

"text": "\"What is a Physician Assistant? Physician assistants diagnose illnesses, develop and carry out treatment plans, assist in surgeries, perform procedures and guide patients. Their work is very similar to that of a general internist or doctor, but they are required by law to practice under the supervision of a licensed physician or surgeon. Jeffrey Katz, president of the American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA), says, \"\"I diagnose and treat patients, illnesses and diseases and counsel them on their path to wellness.\"\" Often, the physician or surgeon supervision is more like collaboration, but there are certain archaic regulations that make life for physician assistants – and their patients – difficult. \"\" To give a real-life example of these arbitrary regulations, in my practice, I can write a patient a prescription for morphine,\"\" Katz explains. \"\" However by law, I cannot prescribe my diabetic patients diabetic shoes. Often, the stress comes in when PAs are not able to practice to the full extent of their training, education and ability.\"\" But the profession is filled with rewards that come from helping and treating patients. A 2015 AAPA study found that more than 96 percent would recommend their physician assistant career to others."

"text": "How long does it take to become a Physician Assistant?“Just how long does it take to become a Physician Assistant ?” is the top question that’s asked on every single PA-related online forum. Well, here’s the answer: The admission requirements vary depending on institution. Most institutions require students to have a science-related college degree while a few training institutions grant admissions even to students who have healthcare-related work experience. If you have a science degree and some experience, the admissions committee will welcome you with open arms. So, the point here is that you must count the years that you have to spend in getting a degree and/or the work experience. Here’s an important note: if you do not want the admissions committee to reject you, read up on the history of Physician Assistants and ask a doctor or a healthcare professional to help you prepare for the interview. These professionals will know what an admissions committee will likely ask. If your application is rejected by the admissions committee, you have to take the time wasted into account just in case you don’t get admission in another college. Before you enroll for a Physician Assistant course, know that the American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA) requires students to complete a 26-month “accredited” course before starting practice."

And of course, you’re a master multitasker. You’ve likely been told by many people over the years that you’d make a great doctor, thanks to your tendency to be both highly dedicated and instinctually nurturing. The innate skills may already exist, but that long, expensive road through medical school is intimidating, to say the least.

It appears demand for physician assistants will be there, but what salary can you expect? While the American Academy of Physician Assistants lists the 2014 average salary of PA’s to be over $107,000 a year, there are several factors that play a role in earnings. For example, the area of the country in which you live, as well as your level of experience, both determine how much you’ll make as a PA. Another important factor in salary is the specialty in which you work. Choosing which area of medicine you want to pursue should be based on several things, such as your interests, the lifestyle you want, and your goals.

Dermatology is the study of the skin – a branch of medicine concerned with diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases of the skin, hair, nails, oral cavity, genitals and cosmetic care. Working under the supervision of a physician or surgeon, a dermatologist assistant can perform certain procedures, diagnose and advise patients, sometimes prescribe medications and work directly with patients. Dermatologist assistants come to their profession with prior medical experience, often starting their careers as registered nurses (RNs) or emergency medical technicians (EMTs). Many have specialized training in dermatology. Practicing as a dermatologist assistant requires first being licensed as a physician assistant (PA). To become licensed, prospective PAs must pass the Physician Assistant National Certifying Program Examination (PANCE) from the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants (NCCPA). Because of the variety and level at which they work, many dermatologist assistants find their careers highly rewarding, in terms of work satisfaction and finance.

H. Whitney, established in 1946 by the industrialist and philanthropist, John Hay “Jock” Whitney, was one of the first U. S. private equity firms and is often credited with pioneering the development of the private equity industry. Today, J. H. Whitney is a leader in the private equity industry, having invested in over 400 companies since formation and currently manages approximately $1.0 billion in private capital. J. H.

We are currently investing from our seventh private equity fund whose investors include leading foundations, universities, pension funds and other institutions. History: Founded as one of the country’s first private equity firms in 1946 by John Hay “Jock” Whitney, J. H. Whitney was formed with the objective of providing capital and professional assistance to entrepreneurs growing companies and reshaping industries. J. H. Whitney's rich history of success in small and middle market investing began with the nation’s first post-World War II leveraged buyout, Spencer Chemicals, by converting a munitions plant into a fertilizer facility. Shortly thereafter, J. H. Whitney introduced the world to Minute Maid Orange Juice, a product in part developed in the kitchen of J. H. Whitney’s original Rockefeller Center, New York offices. With his personal investment of $5 million in 1946 to capitalize J. H. Whitney, Jock Whitney set the stage for a significant change in American capitalism. Our firm honors Jock’s legacy today by continuing his vision of providing capital and assistance to companies with the potential to achieve sustained superior performance."

There was no regulated parking anywhere yet. People would just park their cars in the streets and left them there until they needed them again. In shopping areas most of the parking spaces were occupied by employees who worked downtown, leaving no room for potential customers. Traffic congestion problems were common in big cities. It was hurting business, and soon people started to think about a way to regulate the parking time. Parking meter design contest Because merchants were complaining about the low traffic in the downtown area, they decided to ask Carl Magee for help. Magee immediately thought about a machine which we now know as the parking meter: A machine that sets certain amounts of time for parking. He organized a design contest at the University of Oklahoma to design this newfound parking meter. This was a challenge since the machine had to be operative in all kinds of weather, be vandalism-proof and cost-efficient."

"text": "Many executives want their companies to be more innovative. A new assessment tool can help pinpoint your company’s innovation strengths and weaknesses.advertisement Today’s executives want their companies to be more innovative. They consume stacks of books and articles and attend conventions and courses on innovation, hoping to discover the elixir of success. They are impressed by the ability of comparatively young companies such as Google and Facebook to create and market breakthrough products and services. And they marvel at how some older companies — Apple, IBM, Procter & Gamble, 3M and General Electric, to name a few — reinvent themselves again and again. And they wonder, “How do these great companies do it?”After studying innovation among 759 companies based in 17 major markets, researchers Gerard J. Tellis, Jaideep C. Prabhu and Rajesh K. Chandy found that corporate culture was a much more important driver of radical innovation than labor, capital, government or national culture. 1 But for executives, that conclusion raises two more questions: First, what is an innovative corporate culture? And second, if you don’t have an innovative culture, is there any way you can build one? This article addresses both questions by offering a simple model of the key elements of an innovative culture, as well as a practical 360-degree assessment tool that managers can use to assess how conducive their organization’s culture is to innovation — and to see specific areas where their culture might be more encouraging to it. Six Building Blocks of an Innovative Culture An innovative culture rests on a foundation of six building blocks: resources, processes, values, behavior, climate and success. ("

Studies have shown about 35 percent of Fortune 500 companies are family-controlled and represent the full spectrum of American companies from small business to major corporations. 2The greatest part of America’s wealth lies with family-owned businesses. Family firms comprise 80 to 90 percent of all business enterprises in North America. 3Roughly 90 percent of the families responding to a survey in “From Longevity of Firms to Trans-generational Entrepreneurship of Families: Introducing Family Entrepreneurial Orientation indicated that they control more than a single firm. The results of the survey suggest that there is strong entrepreneurial activity undertaken by controlling families beyond their core (i.e., largest) company. 4Small businesses, including many family firms, employ just over half of US workers. Of 113.4 million non-farm private sector workers in 2011, small firms with fewer than 500 workers employed 55 million and large firms employed 58.4 million."

"text": "\"STATISTICS ROUNDTABLEOutlier Options Consider simple parametric tests to find an outlier’s significanceby Julia E. Seaman and I. Elaine Allen Even in the most basic introductory statistics courses, we teach students that outliers in a data set can pose significant problems. We often teach that visually examining the data can help identify outliers. Beyond detection, however, few statistics textbooks devote much time to the subject of statistically assessing outliers and their effect on final analyses. Students and researchers alike find outliers difficult to recognize. When outliers are identified, there is no clear set of statistical tools or tests available to find an outlier’s significance. There are several outlier tests for parametric data, and we’ve applied them to chemical assay data to showcase the method. Keep or remove? Upon discovering a suspected outlier, the initial temptation has always been to eliminate the points from the data—with appropriate rationale—and simplify the analyses to make the results easy to explain. This method can be subjective, however, and may miss intricacies of the data. When there is more than one outlier or more than two variables in the analysis, the problem becomes more complex."

For example, freelancers don’t have to woo investors or search for an office.

"text": "Tweet What Does it Mean to Study Dental Assisting? Dental hygiene is the healthy maintenance of the mouth, teeth and gums via brushing, flossing and periodic deep cleaning. A dental hygienist typically works in a dentist's office and assists patients with proper dental hygiene. In addition to cleaning and examining the mouth, teeth, and gums, dental hygienists are often responsible for a patient's mouth after the dentist puts in a filling -- polishing the filling and scraping cement from the tooth that has been filled. Because small tools are used to clean and examine teeth, dental hygienists must work well with their hands. A dental assistant, on the other hand, usually works in the front of the dentist's office, greeting patients, making appointments and keeping records. They may perform some basic tasks in the exam room, but their main job is dealing with the administrative component of dentistry. If you're interested in helping others achieve optimal dental health, then dental hygiene is a career path you should definitely consider. With any program in this field, you should be able to help others while performing in a rewarding career. Types of Dental Assisting Degrees Before you become a dental hygiene or dental assisting major, it's important to understand the different educational paths available and where they may lead."

"text": "Disease Reference More Overview Symptoms Causes Risk factors Complications Prevention Diagnosis Treatment Lifestyle and home remedies Preparing for an appointment Dry socket Overview Dry socket (alveolar osteitis) is a painful dental condition that sometimes happens after you have a permanent adult tooth extracted. Dry socket is when the blood clot at the site of the tooth extraction fails to develop, or it dislodges or dissolves before the wound has healed. Normally, a blood clot forms at the site of a tooth extraction. This blood clot serves as a protective layer over the underlying bone and nerve endings in the empty tooth socket. The clot also provides the foundation for the growth of new bone and for the development of soft tissue over the clot. Exposure of the underlying bone and nerves results in intense pain, not only in the socket but also along the nerves radiating to the side of your face. The socket becomes inflamed and may fill with food debris, adding to the pain. If you develop dry socket, the pain usually begins one to three days after your tooth is removed. Dry socket is the most common complication following tooth extractions, such as the removal of third molars (wisdom teeth). Over-the-counter medications alone won't be enough to treat dry socket pain."

No, the real debate: is a dentist a doctor or is a physician the only real doctor? I think maybe the only other health care doctor other than a dentist that takes more of a beating is the chiropractor (as Rodney Dangerfield stated, “I get no respect!”). If you read my blog last week, I ended it telling you to go to You Tube, look up Dentist vs. Doctor, and watch the extra normal video. My wife works at a hospital as an RN part time. She has commented that when people hear her mention Dr. Joyce, they ask what type of doctor he is. When she responds they say, “Oh, he is just a dentist!” This will make more sense if you watch that video.

Many dentists own their own practices, while others work as partners or associates in large dental offices. They work in close personal contact with their patients, probing mouths, giving injections and fixing teeth. Depending on the office size, dentists may also supervise office staff and assistants. A dentist needs undergraduate study and a professional degree to prepare for state licensing. However, the work also requires special skills and personal qualities. Undergraduate Requirements Some students enter dental school after two or three years of undergraduate college, but most dental students already have a bachelor's degree, according to the American Dental Education Association's \"\"Go Dental\"\" website. There's no required major, according to the ADEA, but you must take the necessary prerequisites, which depend on the dental program. In general, you need two semesters or three quarters each of biology, physics, general chemistry and organic chemistry, all including lab sections. Some colleges also require anatomy, physiology, biochemistry and microbiology, while others require English, arts or social sciences."

There are many things hygienists have to learn that they don't use on a daily basis. But then again, when was the last time the dentist up there used his biochem knowledge to prepare a crown. So that's true with pretty much any profession you go in to. You are respected by the patients who see you. But that respect stops if you're not gentle when you do you your work.

By June Thomas In 2007, Americans spent $95.2 billion on dental care, or $315 per capita. That represents only 4.3 percent of the $2.2 trillion ($7,421 per capita) spent on health care overall. It's no wonder, then, that dentistry and dental costs tend to be overlooked when policymakers crunch numbers. Still, most middle-class Americans—even those with health and dental insurance—tend to be more aware of the price of dental treatment because they're more likely to have to pull out their checkbooks when they visit the dentist. Although dental-insurance premiums remained relatively steady over the last decade, especially when compared with skyrocketing medical-insurance premiums, between 1998 and 2008 the increase in the cost of dental services exceeded that of medical care and far exceeded the overall rate of inflation. ( The 30-year trend shows medical-care prices rising slightly more than dental prices. The chart below shows the overall consumer price index compared with the dental and medical indexes.) * And although spending on dental services is less than 4.5 percent of health care expenditures, a greater percentage comes out of patients' pockets."

"text": "\"updated March 14, 2018Dentures are removable dental appliances that replace missing teeth. Unlike dental implants and dental bridges, which are more or less permanently affixed to the bone, dentures are prosthetic teeth attached to a supporting structure. Dentures can be removed at night, for cleaning, or whenever desired. The most affordable dentures are those made with traditional plastic prosthetic teeth, but even more expensive porcelain cosmetic dentures usually cost less than implants. Cost Often more affordable than dental implants, dentures are removable dental appliances meant to look and function like natural teeth. Many patients who have experienced tooth loss and are concerned about the loss of both functionality and aesthetics turn to dentures to meet their needs. The cost of dentures varies considerably, according to geographical location, the dentist, and type of dentures. Pricing Breakdown Factors that influence the cost of dentures may include the area in which you live, your dentist, the type of dentures you require, and the quality of dentures you select. Full dentures are designed to replace an entire set of teeth, either the upper jaw, the lower jaw, or the entire mouth. Partial dentures, on the other hand, are for those who have lost only a few teeth and are often an affordable alternative to dental bridges."

"text": "What Does Jesus Mean by Hypocrisy? It’s Deeper than You Think Msgr. Charles Pope • February 23, 2012In the Gospel from Ash Wednesday’s Mass, Jesus gives an extended teaching on the problem of hypocrisy. You can read it here: Matthew 6 – On Hypocrisy. In the modern age we have tended to reduce the notion of hypocrisy to duplicity. The modern notion is that a hypocrite is someone who says one thing but does another, a person who is two-faced, who is inconsistent or phony. Jesus’ teaching on Hypocrisy does not exclude this notion but is far richer. The Biblical understanding enunciated by Jesus is rooted in the original meaning of the Greek word ὑποκριταί (hypokritai) which means “stage actors.” At one level it is easy to see how this word has come to mean some one who is phony. For what they claim to be, they really are not, they are just acting a role."

You watch as the actors in the play flawlessly deliver each of their lines and hit their cues every time, without fail. You’re captivated as the story unfolds before your eyes. To most audience members, the production of a play often appears to be effortless and seamless. However, there are a number of elements needed to put on an amazing production. For example, the sets and lighting need to be perfect, and the actors need to be at the top of their game. It doesn’t stop there, though. Each of these elements must mesh perfectly with each other to result in a seamless production.

As an actor, you might find yourself working on individual projects for short periods of time and, as a result, you could be out of work frequently. Because of the unpredictability of the job field, actors often have to work a second job to supplement their income. According to the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the median hourly wage for actors as of May 2014 was $19.82 ( www.bls.gov ). The bottom ten percent of actors earned $9.00 per hour or less, while the top 25% of wage earners made an hourly wage of $49.70 or higher."

There are three criteria to fulfil: Leaving Cert points, subjects, and HPAT score. Leaving Cert points normally work on a supply and demand principle, but for Medicine they are fixed and have a special arrangement. You need to have a minimum of 480 to be eligible. Note that once you reach 550 though, the points become less important. Every subsequent 5 points is reduced to 1 e.g. 565 becomes 553, up to 600, which becomes 560 (max). This does not affect your points for other courses. In addition to that, you need to take a HPAT, which is the Irish medical schools admissions test similar to other one around the world; it's modelled on the GAMSAT."

While many actors live in large metropolitan areas, such as Los Angeles or New York, production companies all over the U. S. hire actors on a regular basis. Travel is often necessary, and competition for acting positions is extremely high.

If I don't know the answer, I look it up Formal training through a university or acting conservatory is typical; however, many actors, producers, and directors find work on the basis of their experience and talent alone. The Directors Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers jointly sponsor the Assistant Directors Training Program. To be accepted to this highly competitive program, an individual must have either a bachelor's or associates degree or 2 years of experience and must complete a written exam and other assessments. Program graduates are eligible to become a member of the Directors Guild and typically find employment as a second assistant director. ( from Department of Labor website) Some top film schools can be found at New York University, the University of Southern California, the American Film Institute in Los Angeles, California Institute of the Arts and the University of California at Los Angeles. Other possible ways to gain experience: 1) Apply for work on movie sets, in entry-level jobs such as production assistant or as anyone's assistant. 2) Wherever you earn your degree you can also work in local television which will give you experience, connections, and help pay the bills."

Loomis, MS, FNP-CBarbara Willard, ND, RNJayne Cohen, DNSc, RNCAbstract Although the Ph D has been the traditional doctoral degree in nursing, nurses now have a choice between that degree and the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree. An Internet-based exploratory survey of DNP students (n= 69) investigated the motivation of nurses to pursue doctoral education, factors that influenced the decision between the two degrees, rationale for choosing the DNP program, and career plans after graduation. A majority reported considering the Ph D but decided the DNP would be more appropriate for their professional and personal goals. Nursing education was ranked as an important career intention for 55% of respondents, dispelling the concern that the DNP will increase the shortage of nursing faculty. The results indicate that the DNP degree is a desirable option for clinically oriented nurses considering doctoral education and provides nurses with a choice of educational pathways for their professional careers.

February 20, 2013 The Bookbag: Education 19 Comments One of the obvious prerequisites to becoming a nurse practitioner is acquiring an RN degree and license. You can't after all become a nurse practitioner without first being a nurse. The RN and NP role are however very different and many prospective nurse practitioner's don't want to work as nurses. Do you have to work as a nurse before attending a nurse practitioner program or working as a nurse? The short answer is \"\"No\"\", you do not have to work as a nurse before attending a nurse practitioner program or working as a nurse practitioner. Personally, I have never been employed as a RN, never worked on the hospital floor, inserted a foley catheter on the job or even manned an IV pump for pay. I learned how to do all these things in school but have never been employed as an RN. How do you become a nurse practitioner without working your way up the nursing ladder?

About a bachelor’s degree in nursing A bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) degree prepares you for a job as a registered nurse. While you can work as an RN with an associate’s degree, nurses with a BSN are typically given more responsibility, supervisory roles and higher salaries. A BSN program, which typically takes four years, will include both liberal arts courses which fulfill general education requirements and classes specific to your major in nursing. Why should I earn my BSN? If you’ve already achieved RN status through an associate’s degree program, enrolling in an RN-BSN program is the next logical step if you’re looking for career advancement. The good news is an RN-BSN program can be completed while you continue working as a nurse, which means you’ll advance your career without having to take time off. If you envision yourself working in health care for the long term, earning a BSN can be a strategic move. With the nursing shortage in the U. S., RNs with BSNs are in high demand and can benefit from good salaries. In addition to this, holding a BSN puts you one step closer to a master’s degree or doctorate if you decide you want to become an advanced practice nurse."

"text": "RN is an abbreviation for registered nurse. An RN is a nurse that has completed a course of study and passed the proper examinations to become licensed and registered. Although there are more RNs than any other type of nurse in the U. S., there is still a great need for more registered nurses. This is often referred to as a nursing shortage. The reason there is such a need for registered nurses is that they provide the greatest level of care for many patients. An RN not only provides specific types of care, but also gives advice and helps coordinate other health services for patients. A registered nurse may be in charge of other nursing personnel such as interns, techs and volunteers. He or she may also be responsible for a patient's overall case management, conferring with everyone from the patient to the primary care physician, as well as any therapists or specialists. To become a registered nurse, a nursing student must pass the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) for RNs. Nursing students may become eligible to take the exam after receiving an Associate's Degree in some areas, although many go on to achieve a Baccalaureate Degree."

Nursing practice has always had an emphasis on lifelong learning, but nowadays there is an expectation that more of that learning be done in the formal classroom setting-whether real or virtual. In the past, successful and skilled nurses got by with fewer years of education. Nowadays, nurses are expected to continue their formal education on an ongoing basis, and there are dozens of specific degree programs to accommodate diverse needs. What's the reason for the shift? Advances in technology, changes in medical practice and developing sub-specialties in the nursing field all add up to an overwhelming amount of information. A dedicated nurse simply may not learn everything he or she needs to know on the job. Formal education may be the key to career opportunities, increased salaries, and leadership roles.

"text": "Tweet Neurology is a medical discipline that focuses on the study and treatment of conditions related to the nervous system. A neurologist is a medical physician that specializes in neurology and has received intense training on examining, diagnosing, and treating a variety of neurological conditions. What does a neurologist do? Neurologists are experts in treating disorders and diseases affecting the nervous system. They perform neurological examinations and administer tests to diagnose problems related to the brain, spinal cord, central nervous system, and related muscles and tissue. They perform many different tests including Computed Axial Technology (CAT) scans and Magnetic Resource Imaging (MRI). They review the medical history of the patient and discuss test results and treatment options. Neurologists also participate in research to gain a better understanding of the neurological conditions and develop new treatment options. They work with patients with many different conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, brain trauma, stroke, multiple sclerosis, and epilepsy. Those interested in the more human and behavioral aspects of neurology may be well suited to careers in research psychology or psychiatry."

"text": "Print Overview Electromyography (EMG) is a diagnostic procedure to assess the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them (motor neurons). Motor neurons transmit electrical signals that cause muscles to contract. An EMG translates these signals into graphs, sounds or numerical values that a specialist interprets. An EMG uses tiny devices called electrodes to transmit or detect electrical signals. During a needle EMG, a needle electrode inserted directly into a muscle records the electrical activity in that muscle. A nerve conduction study, another part of an EMG, uses electrodes taped to the skin (surface electrodes) to measure the speed and strength of signals traveling between two or more points. EMG results can reveal nerve dysfunction, muscle dysfunction or problems with nerve-to-muscle signal transmission. Why it's done Your doctor may order an EMG if you have signs or symptoms that may indicate a nerve or muscle disorder. Such symptoms may include: Tingling Numbness Muscle weakness Muscle pain or cramping Certain types of limb pain EMG results are often necessary to help diagnose or rule out a number of conditions such as: Muscle disorders, such as muscular dystrophy or polymyositis Diseases affecting the connection between the nerve and the muscle, such as myasthenia gravis Disorders of nerves outside the spinal cord (peripheral nerves), such as carpal tunnel syndrome or peripheral neuropathies Disorders that affect the motor neurons in the brain or spinal cord, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or polio Disorders that affect the nerve root, such as a herniated disk in the spine Request an Appointment at Mayo Clinic Risks EMG is a low-risk procedure, and complications are rare. There's a small risk of bleeding, infection and nerve injury where a needle electrode is inserted."

Medical schools do not have a finite list of acceptable degrees, but admissions officers typically prefer applicants who major in a relevant field. Biology, physics and chemistry are possible choices for an undergraduate major. Some universities offer a degree in pre-med as well.

Most of the time, a primary care doctor refers patients to a neurologist if they have symptoms that indicate a neurological condition. Conditions Managed by a Neurologist A neurologist will often treat patients who have these medical conditions:• Stroke • Neurological trauma • Tumors of the nervous system • Infections of the nervous system • Multiple sclerosis and other autoimmune diseases • Epilepsy • Peripheral nerve disease • Neuromuscular diseases • Dementia • Headaches • Movement disorders • Sleep disorders Symptoms of Warranting a Neurological Consultation Certain symptoms may make the doctor suspect that a visit with a neurologist would be useful. These include: Headaches: Almost everyone suffers from headaches at some point, usually due to tension or perhaps a mild illness like a cold. On the other hand, some people suffer from more severe headaches like frequent migraines. In rare cases, the headache may be caused by something serious, like bleeding into the brain or increased pressure in the skull. Patients with severe or life-threatening headaches may need to be managed by a neurologist. Chronic pain: Many people have pain in their back or neck. While this kind of pain can often be managed by a primary care physician, sometimes a neurologist will become involved, especially if this pain is associated with other neurological problems like weakness, numbness, or problems with bladder or bowel control. Dizziness: People mean many different things when they say they're dizzy, and different kinds of dizziness require different kinds of doctors."

"text": "Home » College What Math Do People Who Want to Become Doctors Need to Take in High School & College? By Kate Prudchenko Students who want to become doctors should take pre-calculus, AP calculus and calculus 1 and 2 in high school and college. Students who are interested in becoming doctors have to complete a four-year bachelor's degree, a four-year medical school degree, and two to seven years of internship and residency work depending on the kind of specialty they are interested in pursuing as physicians. While students cannot major in pre-med, and have to choose a concrete major such as biology or chemistry for their bachelor's degrees, they do have to fulfill certain pre-med requirements prior to enrolling in medical school. Pre-Med Requirements Students interested in becoming doctors while they are still in high school often choose to take classes that will help them succeed in pre-med courses in college. Requirements vary, but most medical schools require prospective applicants to have one year of general biology with a laboratory, one year each of general and organic chemistry with laboratories, one year of general physics with laboratory, one year of calculus and a semester of microbiology. High school students can prepare for this coursework by taking high school-level equivalents of these courses. In particular, many high schools offer students introductory and advanced placement courses in biology, chemistry, physics and calculus. General High School Math Students who want to become doctors should take all available math courses in high school. In chronological order, most high schools and many colleges offer students courses in pre-algebra, algebra 1, algebra 2 and trigonometry or pre-calculus."

I am discussing the worst case scenarios for people with aggressive, progressive MS, and what may be referred to as late-stage MS. This is in response to the recent Multiple Sclerosis.net MS in America survey and what the respondents asked for in additional information. When I began writing about multiple sclerosis, a common question from the newly diagnosed had the theme of ‘am I going to die from my MS?” I would answer quite earnestly – MS won’t kills us. The life expectancy for someone with multiple sclerosis is very similar to the general population and the leading cause of death for people with MS is heart disease, cancer and stroke, according to the MS Foundation. They point out that MS affects the quality of life but not the quantity. 1I was challenged by more reading, research, and some other people with multiple sclerosis to rethink my answer. While MS technically is not a killer by itself (except in rare circumstances), it can cause enough problems and symptoms with complications that can be fatal, and multiple sclerosis can at the very least be named an accomplice in death for some people. The majority of people with MS will live a life about the same length as their peers, but there is the small percentage of people, estimated at 10-15%, who will have a very aggressive form with a high degree of disability."

"text": "\"What Skills Are Needed to Become a Neurologist?by Mary Jane; Updated September 26, 2017A neurologist is a medical doctor with a specialization in the diagnosis and treatment of the human nervous system. Although a neurologist does not perform surgery, specific skills are needed, as the work completed by a neurologist is used by neurosurgeons that do perform brain surgery to improve the nervous system or cure diseases of the brain. Communication Neurologists work closely with patients to diagnose and treat clinical disorders of the human nervous system. This includes the brain, nerves and spinal cord. A neurologist must be able to communicate effectively, as patients may simply feel bad without knowing why. The doctor must ask questions about headaches, sleep disorders, old spinal or brain injuries or nerve disorders to determine the root cause of the pain or problems of the patient. Since some patients may feel uncomfortable, friendly communication is a must. Administrative Skills A neurologist must have administrative skills, including basic reading and writing skills. Neurologists must update patients’ files and update any progressions made by the patients during treatment. The neurologist must also have excellent writing skills, since he may be writing a patient’s condition down to a neurosurgeon who will be conducting surgery on the patient."

Many neurologists work in hospitals, and though health and safety precautions are taken, there is some risk of exposure to infectious diseases while working in any medical setting. Doctors who work in hospitals commonly work more than 40 hours a week and often during irregular hours of the day. The potential for high income is present in this career. It can be emotionally and physically challenging, but there is great reward in improving peoples' health and saving peoples' lives. Neurologists will need strong communication and leadership skills, attention to detail, organizational skills, problem-solving skills, patience, empathy, and knowledge of human anatomy and the nervous system.

"text": "\"Home » College What Kind of Degree Must a Psychiatrist Have? By Gale Thompson Prospective psychiatrists undergo four years of psychiatric residency after medical school. The road to becoming a psychiatrist, a medical doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating mental disorders, is a long and demanding one. Generally, it takes at least eight years of postgraduate education, which includes both medical school and a specialized psychiatric residency, to become a licensed and certified psychiatrist. Undergraduate Degree Future psychiatrists may major in any field for their undergraduate degree, but many choose psychology, sciences like chemistry or biology or even specialized pre-med programs. Regardless of major, students must take ample coursework in psychology, including introductory psychology, statistics and research methods, and courses in abnormal psychology and psychopathology. Many double major in both psychology and a science in order to complete the required coursework. Applying for medical school admission is competitive, so an excellent GPA in these courses will increase your chances of being accepted. Medical Degree Because psychiatrists are practicing physicians specializing in mental health, they must hold a medical degree--either an M. D. (Doctor of Medicine) or a D. O. (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine)--from an accredited medical or osteopathy school. Applicants must take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) as part of the admittance requirements."

William Oldendorf, MD traced the development of neuroimaging in his Wartenberg lecture to the Academy of Neurology (AAN) in 1978. He emphasized the diversity among the scientists and medical specialists who contributed. Walter Dandy, a neurosurgeon, first performed ventriculography and pneumoencephalagraphy (PEG) in 1918 and 1919. Moniz, a neurologist, accomplished the first cerebral arteriogram in 1927.

Neurologists are the specialized physicians who treat these conditions, diagnosing the root cause of the patient's symptoms and drawing up a plan of care. Despite the profound importance of their work, neurologists aren't among the highest-earning physicians. Industry magazine \"\"Modern Healthcare\"\" collects and reviews a number of physician salary surveys each year for a special issue on physician compensation. In the 2012 issue, those 15 salary surveys reported average salaries for neurologists ranging from a low of $209,394 to a high of $380,275. The highest figure, reported by Delta Physician Placement, was significantly above the rest. No other survey reported an average neurologist salary of more than $300,000 a year, and eight of the 15 reported averages of between $250,000 and $280,000. Insights Some surveys provide specific insights into neurologists' compensation. Recruiting firm Merritt Hawkins' 2011 report showed an average salary offer of $256,000 for neurologists, from a range as low as $160,000 and as high as $345,000."

"text": "Evaluators of Employees Tend to Favor Financial Performance Over Contributions to Corporate Ethics Share Article A Johns Hopkins Carey Business School study finds evaluators using a balanced scorecard tended to award high ratings and bonuses to employees who performed well financially, rather than to those who scored well in corporate social responsibility. Baltimore, MD (PRWEB) September 28, 2016The “balanced scorecard” has emerged in recent decades as a popular workplace tool for appraising and rewarding employee performance. Workers’ impact on the bottom line and their focus on nonfinancial drivers of performance (e.g., customer satisfaction) are among the areas considered in this evaluation method. Making corporate social responsibility part of the scorecard may be a way of promoting ethics within the corporate culture. But in a new study by a Johns Hopkins University business professor, evaluators using a balanced scorecard (BSC) in different case scenarios tended to award high ratings and bonuses to employees who performed well financially, rather than to those who scored well in corporate social responsibility (CSR). Not only were CSR measures deemed less relevant, they also were considered dispensable parts of the evaluation. Even when the evaluators were told in the case that the chief executive officer in the scenario strongly supported CSR, the bias toward financial performance prevailed. Associate Professor Lasse Mertins of the Johns Hopkins Carey Business School and two colleagues from the University of Baltimore, professors Regina Bento and Lourdes White, say their study in the Journal of Business Ethics is among the first to examine how ideology and considerations of CSR in the balanced scorecard affect employee evaluations and bonuses. A pair of experiments involving a total of about 240 participants provided the data. In the first experiment, the researchers write, the data indicated that the participants “ignored information [in the case] … about the CEO’s emphasis on CSR initiatives, and consequently perceived CSR performance measures as less relevant for performance evaluation."

In addition, environmental science degrees also draw heavily from the social sciences, such as economics, business, or sociology. The degree to which any of these fields of study becomes prevalent within an environmental science education largely depends on the specialization one chooses.

Between now and 2022, the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a faster-than-average increase in employment opportunities for computer and information research scientists. Yet, a recent IBM CFO study noted that even though 82 percent of those surveyed see the value of integrating enterprise-wide data, only 24 percent think their team is up to the task. Educators and employers must work together to narrow this skills gap. IBM is helping to ensure the explosive demand for data scientists is met by partnering with the following universities to offer Big Data and Analytics curricula: Arizona State University, Babson College, Boston University, Case Western Reserve University, Dakota State University, Illinois Institute of Technology, Illinois State University, Indiana University, Iowa State University, Johns Hopkins University, Northwestern University, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, San Jose State University, Southern Methodist University, University of Arkansas at Little Rock, University of Arkansas Fayetteville, University of Denver, University of Colorado Boulder, University of Maryland - College Park, University of Massachusetts Boston, University of Missouri, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, University of Southern California, University of Texas at Austin, University of Tennessee - Chattanooga, University of Tennessee - Knoxville, University of Virginia and Worcester Polytechnic Institute. \"\" Taking advantage of the transformational opportunity presented by Big Data and Analytics has become a key priority for organizations around the globe,\"\" said Bob Picciano, Senior Vice President, Information and Analytics Group, IBM. \"\" To embrace this growing opportunity, companies today must hire a workforce with a broad range of Big Data and Analytics expertise."

"text": "What is the Best Engineering Degree? Defining the best engineering degree is obviously subjective and will more often than not come down to where a student’s natural interests lie. Some look for an easy degree (no engineering degree is easy). Some look at the engineering degree with the best outlook for the future - we have detailed our outlook below. Some look at what fulfills them the most, what pays the most, or what challenges them the most. The best thing about the engineering field is that multiple degrees can satisfy all of those “hungers”. Nearly every engineering degree is challenging, and there are so many different types of engineering degrees that you can be nearly certain to find a field that leads to your career satisfaction. This might be in construction, in which case a Civil Engineering degree and career may well be the best engineering degree for you. Likewise if you feel a close affinity with environmental issues then a degree in Environmental Engineering may be the most suitable engineering degree for you. There is also the question of salary which obviously plays an important role in job satisfaction."

But for people who like hands-on experimentation, complex projects, and dreaming big, engineering is the way to go. Engineering degrees have spectacularly high ROIs, even from state colleges and universities, and there’s a job market hungry for qualified engineers. If you’re considering a bachelor’s in engineering, look at residential programs before online. There are a lot of very solid financial reasons to go residential. First of all, there are very few reputable online programs for undergraduate engineering in the first place, largely because engineering is such a hands-on field – it’s tough to learn basic concepts from simulations and virtual models. That’s something a residential program can provide; most universities have well-equipped laboratories for experimentation. Most universities also have master’s programs that you can step right into to further raise your credentials. Secondly, location is important: the best residential programs are usually located in cities or regions with lots of industry, business, and government agencies that employ engineers, whether it’s Silicon Valley, the Research Triangle, or the resurgent Rust Belt. Plus, university and college engineering schools often have long-standing relationships with the corporations and industries in their area, providing a pipeline into the job market."

"text": "High freshman retention is one of the best indicators not only of student satisfaction at a university, but also the likelihood that graduates will finish with lower debt than their peers who graduate from a different college than the one they originally enrolled in. Transferring between colleges and dropping out are among the greatest causes of increased student debt in the United States. Transfer students often take an extra year or two to complete their degree due to differences in curriculum and other factors. This significantly increases the cost of college. So what can a person who can’t read the future do to minimize the chance of transferring? Well, among other things like being sure of what you intend to major in and doing research to make sure a school is a good fit for you, a great way to hedge your bets is to attend a university or college with a high freshman retention rate. Methodology The list we’ve compiled below includes the national universities and liberal arts colleges with the highest freshman retention rates according to U. S. News and World Report. Because the value of your education is important, we rank these high retention rate schools according to their 30 year average net return on investment according to figures from payscale.com. Also included in the list, for purely informational purposes, is the overall ranking of each institution according to U. S. News and World Report.

The Short Version A Cryptographer develops algorithms, ciphers and security systems to encrypt sensitive information. A Cryptanalyst analyzes and decrypts any type of hidden information (e.g. encrypted data, cipher texts, telecommunications protocols) in cryptographic security systems. You are the code maker and the code breaker, the professional who ensures that private data regarding finance, national security and other important spheres are hidden from marauding cyber-terrorists. Cryptographer/Cryptanalyst Responsibilities As the white knight of data, you may be required to: Protect important information from interception, copying, modification and/or deletion Evaluate, analyze and target weaknesses in cryptographic security systems and algorithms Design robust security systems to prevent vulnerabilities Develop statistical and mathematical models to analyze data and solve security problems Test computational models for reliability and accuracy Investigate, research and test new cryptology theories and applications Probe for weaknesses in communication lines (e.g. wireless network, secure telephone, cellphones, email, etc. ) Ensure financial data (e.g. credit card, inter-bank, ATM, online transactions, etc.) are securely encrypted and accessible only to authorized users Ensure message transmission data (e.g. wireless network, secure telephone, cellphones, email, etc.) are not illegally accessed or altered in transit Decode cryptic messages and coding systems for military, political and/or law enforcement agencies Develop and update methods for efficient handling of cryptic processes Provide technical support to government, businesses and industry to solve security-related issues Advise colleagues and research staff on cryptical/mathematical methods and applications Keep in mind that responsibilities will vary according to the job.

Thomas, who was born in New Iberia, La., and raised in Nashville, Tenn., had hoped one day to become a surgeon. A bank failure during the early days of the Great Depression wiped away his medical-school savings and nearly his dream. The son of a contractor, Thomas was so impressed as a youth by his family's physician that he pledged to \"\"be like him.\"\" He had scraped together the money for his medical education by working after school and as an orderly in a private infirmary. In 1929, Thomas enrolled in a premedical course at the Tennessee Agricultural and Industrial College and, after losing his money in the stock market crash, went to work in 1930 for Dr. Alfred Blalock at Vanderbilt University, who eventually trained him to be his surgical assistant. At Vanderbilt, both Blalock and Thomas conducted experiments pulmonary hypertension and traumatic shock. Out of their research came the revelation that shock was associated with loss of fluid and a decrease in blood volume.

They often work with patients afflicted with Parkinson's disease, Autism, Alzheimer's, and those who experience seizures. Neurologists assess patients through examinations and various diagnostic tests. Neurologists work alongside other physicians and medical professionals. The majority work in hospitals and in private practices. Those who work in hospitals are required to work a schedule decided on by the hospital. Although the schedule is typically during regular business hours, neurologists in hospitals are often on call at night and on the weekends.

Although a neurologist does not perform surgery, specific skills are needed, as the work completed by a neurologist is used by neurosurgeons that do perform brain surgery to improve the nervous system or cure diseases of the brain. Communication Neurologists work closely with patients to diagnose and treat clinical disorders of the human nervous system. This includes the brain, nerves and spinal cord. A neurologist must be able to communicate effectively, as patients may simply feel bad without knowing why. The doctor must ask questions about headaches, sleep disorders, old spinal or brain injuries or nerve disorders to determine the root cause of the pain or problems of the patient. Since some patients may feel uncomfortable, friendly communication is a must. Administrative Skills A neurologist must have administrative skills, including basic reading and writing skills. Neurologists must update patients’ files and update any progressions made by the patients during treatment. The neurologist must also have excellent writing skills, since he may be writing a patient’s condition down to a neurosurgeon who will be conducting surgery on the patient."

In fact, there is a specific type of doctor for almost every major system located in the human body. Listed below are just thirty of the dozens of examples: To learn more about the complex jargon doctors are often littering throughout their sentiments to patients, take a look at this course on the basics of medical terminology!1. Audiologist Audiologists specialize in ear related issues, particularly with regard to hearing loss in children. These doctors work with deaf and mute children to assist in their learning to communicate. They typically work in hospitals, physicians’ offices, audiology clinics, and occasionally in schools.2. Allergist Allergists work with a wide variety of patients who suffer from issues related to allergies, such as hay, fever, or asthma. They are specially trained to treat these issues and assist patients in dealing with them and what to do when they are encountered.3."

Having said that, I strongly recommend going to collage and getting basic courses including electrical, blue print reading, MATH and more MATH. In the meantime try to pick up a part time job with an electrician or a Electrical parts supplier. You'll be getting your feet wet with some experience while building your foundation of your career. You don't necessarily need a college degree, however most electricians I know, including myself, all have college degrees. Being a union electrician does not require such credentials. however, I highly recommend it. Otherwise, you are probably SOL!"

An OB/GYN, short for obstetrician and gynecologist, is a doctor who treats women and the diseases and health concerns that specifically affect them. These professionals also perform procedures, such as hysterectomies and laparoscopies. Becoming a certified OB/GYN requires over eight years of higher education, plus a residency at a clinic or hospital. Once you complete all of the education, you must pass two board exams and obtain a state license. High School Many people pursuing a medical career recognize their ambitions from an early age. It is important to get high grades in high school to get accepted into a prestigious four-year college or university. There are also fast track programs to medical school that are even more difficult to get into. High grades, extracurricular activities, volunteer work, a 1990 or higher on the SAT and a 29 or higher on the ACT can all improve your chances at acceptance into a fast track program."

S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Neurologists are physicians and surgeons who treat patients with nervous system disorders, including problems with the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. Many neurologists work in hospitals, and though health and safety precautions are taken, there is some risk of exposure to infectious diseases while working in any medical setting. Doctors who work in hospitals commonly work more than 40 hours a week and often during irregular hours of the day. The potential for high income is present in this career. It can be emotionally and physically challenging, but there is great reward in improving peoples' health and saving peoples' lives. Neurologists will need strong communication and leadership skills, attention to detail, organizational skills, problem-solving skills, patience, empathy, and knowledge of human anatomy and the nervous system. According to the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the average salary for all other physicians and surgeons, including neurologists, was $197,700 as of May 2015."

A physician who practices neurology is called a neurologist. A surgeon who operates on the brain is called a neurosurgeon, which is a surgical specialty rather than a medical specialty. Neurologists treat stroke patients, as well as patients with traumatic brain injury, epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, movement disorders, neuromuscular disorders, multiple sclerosis, headaches, and hundreds of other neurological issues, some of which are acute, others of which may be ongoing, or chronic. Neurology is a field that will have an increasing need for practitioners as an aging population will have more incidence of stroke, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. Education and Specialization for a Neurologist A doctor who wishes to become a neurologist first attends medical school and graduates with a DO or MD medical degree. Then the doctor would complete a year as an intern in internal medicine and three years of residency in neurology. Board certification is conducted by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. They provide specialty exams in neurology and neurology with special qualification in child neurology. Subspecialty certifications are available in brain injury medicine, epilepsy, hospice and palliative medicine, neurodevelopmental disabilities, neuromuscular medicine, pain medicine, sleep medicine, and vascular neurology."

His revolutionary discovery set the stage for even more amazing advances in the imaging of human disease. William Oldendorf, MD traced the development of neuroimaging in his Wartenberg lecture to the Academy of Neurology (AAN) in 1978. He emphasized the diversity among the scientists and medical specialists who contributed. Walter Dandy, a neurosurgeon, first performed ventriculography and pneumoencephalagraphy (PEG) in 1918 and 1919. Moniz, a neurologist, accomplished the first cerebral arteriogram in 1927. Oldendorf himself developed the basis for computerized tomography (CT) in 1961 and the technique was applied to clinical diagnosis by an electrical engineer, Hounsfield, in 1973."

One of the most important items in these guidelines are the references to substantiate certain facts regarding the difficulty with the ‘early onset’ requirement by the VA. If you were on the ground in Vietnam the VA law now presumes you were exposed to Agent Orange/Toxic Herbicides, the VA law now recognizes that Agent Orange or Toxic Herbicides cause Chronic Peripheral Neuropathy (or any diagnosis related to PN) so you DO NOT HAVE TO PROVE this by VA law.

Over the past two thousand years, physics has been used to investigate phenomena ranging from light and sound to the universe itself. Too complex for the elementary or middle school levels, students typically first encounter physics at the high school level. With more attention being paid to increasing the number of professionals and educators related to STEM fields, aspiring physics teachers are finding abundant opportunities to not only obtain an education, but to also find jobs in high schools and postsecondary institutions. The demand to hire qualified physics teachers is also tied to the rapid growth of high school students taking physics. Over the past two decades, statistics have more than doubled to nearly 2 million students, with significant improvements made in the number of students taking Advanced Placement or second-year physics classes. Results from the 2012-13 Nationwide Survey of High School Physics Teachers, issued by the American Institute of Physics, revealed that overall, 39 percent of high school graduates had taken a physics class. This type of growth contributes to the overall need to hire qualified teachers. What is a physics teacher? At its most basic, physics is a field in which students explore questions related to the nature of energy and matter, and, at its most complex, physics is a field in which teachers encourage students to investigate unknown physical phenomena."

Our research reveals that the demand for STEM talent is significantly greater than commonly reported, and the supply of STEM college graduates continues to lag far behind employer STEM talent needs. Key Findings on STEM Jobs, Careers, and Salaries In 2013, there were 5.7 million total postings in STEM fields. Of those, 76%, or 4.4 million, require at least a bachelor’s degree, and 41%, or 2.3 million, are entry-level jobs requiring less than 2 years of experience.48% of all entry-level jobs requiring a bachelor’s degree or higher (BA+) are in STEM fields, while only 29% of bachelor’s degree graduates earn a STEM degree. At the sub-baccalaureate level (Sub-BA), 24% of entry-level jobs are in STEM fields, while 32% of Sub-BA degrees are in STEM concentrations. There are 2.5 entry-level job postings for each new 4-year graduate in STEM fields compared to 1.1 postings for each new BA graduate in non-STEM fields. STEM careers offer a substantial information technology salary premium. The average advertised salary for entry-level STEM jobs requiring a BA or higher is $66,123 compared to $52,299 for non-STEM jobs. This difference of approximately $14,000 represents a 26% premium. At the Sub-BA level, the average advertised entry-level salary is $47,856 for STEM jobs and $37,424 for non-STEM careers."

A Call to Actionby Howard Weiner on July 21, 2015Category: Academic Challenges, STEM Education It’s hard to argue the importance of STEM education in today’s world. Look around, and you can see that most of the desirable, high-paying jobs in today’s world require some proficiency in technology. Simple tech literacy is no longer enough if you expect to work in a fast-growing field. But I would argue that STEM education hasn’t come through on some of its promises, which is why I issue this challenge: What does STEM stand for? The cheeky response to this call-to-action is to take it literally. For those who don’t know, STEM stands for “science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.” The topic has been getting a lot of attention lately, from crisis to backlash. Some say that “The United States is losing its competitive edge in math and science while the rest of the world soars ahead,” while others worry that too much focus on STEM is risky. It’s hard to tell the STEM facts from fiction, but the debate is a healthy one."

Table of Contents . Chapter 2Information Retrieval Models2.1 Introduction The purpose of this chapter is two-fold: First, we want to set the stage for the problems in information retrieval that we try to address in this thesis. Second, we want to give the reader a quick overview of the major textual retrieval methods, because the Info Crystal can help to visualize the output from any of them. We begin by providing a general model of the information retrieval process. We then briefly describe the major retrieval methods and characterize them in terms of their strengths and shortcomings.2.2 General Model of Information Retrieval The goal of information retrieval (IR) is to provide users with those documents that will satisfy their information need. We use the word \"\"document\"\" as a general term that could also include non-textual information, such as multimedia objects. Figure 4.1 provides a general overview of the information retrieval process, which has been adapted from Lancaster and Warner (1993). Users have to formulate their information need in a form that can be understood by the retrieval mechanism. There are several steps involved in this translation process that we will briefly discuss below."

Others are fascinated by extreme weather events such as tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards and droughts. They watch videos of tornado chasers on You Tube with their heart pounding in their chest. Some extreme weather events do more than get our heart racing. They reveal the sheer magnitude of nature’s power and the fragility of human existence, things we often forget in our humdrum day-to-day lives. We are reminded of the aftermath of the Indian Ocean Tsunami of 2004, of Super Storm Sandy in 2012 and of the India-Pakistan floods of 2014. Those stories not only give us a glimpse at nature’s power, but made us feel the bitter sting of sympathy, our hearts going out to the victims whose lives and communities were devastated by these tragic events. It may look easy to forecast the weather on television, or even to follow the track of a dangerous storm."

( October 2014) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)The Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education is a framework for classifying colleges and universities in the United States. The framework primarily serves educational and research purposes, where it is often important to identify groups of roughly comparable institutions. [ 1] The classification includes all accredited, degree -granting colleges and universities in the United States that are represented in the National Center for Education Statistics Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). The Carnegie Classification was created by the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education in 1970. The classification was first published in 1973 with updates in 1976, 1987, 1994, 2000, 2005, 2010, and 2015. [ 1] To ensure continuity of the classification framework and to allow comparison across years, the 2015 Classification update retains the same structure of six parallel classifications, initially adopted in 2005.

"text": "\"Live Science Tech Reference: What is STEM Education? By Elaine J. Hom, Live Science Contributor | February 11, 2014 05:16pm ETMORECredit: alphaspirit | Shutterstock STEM is a curriculum based on the idea of educating students in four specific disciplines — science, technology, engineering and mathematics — in an interdisciplinary and applied approach. Rather than teach the four disciplines as separate and discrete subjects, STEM integrates them into a cohesive learning paradigm based on real-world applications. Though the United States has historically been a leader in these fields, fewer students have been focusing on these topics recently. According to the U. S. Department of Education, only 16 percent of high school students are interested in a STEM career and have proven a proficiency in mathematics. Currently, nearly 28 percent of high school freshmen declare an interest in a STEM-related field, a department website says, but 57 percent of these students will lose interest by the time they graduate from high school. As a result, the Obama administration announced the 2009 \"\"Educate to Innovate\"\" campaign to motivate and inspire students to excel in STEM subjects. This campaign also addresses the inadequate number of teachers skilled to educate in these subjects. The goal is to get American students from the middle of the pack in science and math to the top of the pack in the international arena. Thirteen agencies are partners in the Committee on Stem Education (Co STEM), including mission science agencies and the U. S. Department of Education."

Intake and Exhaust Valves Functions and Arrangements The valve arrangement in an engine controls the in and out movements of charge and exhaust gases in the cylinders in relation to the piston positions in their bores. Now-a-days, this is located in the cylinder head on all the engines. Among the commonly used sleeve, sliding, rotary, and poppet type valves, the poppet-valve is most common because this offers reasonable weight, good strength and good heat transfer characteristics. The most popular shape of the poppet-valve (Fig. 3.32) for automobile application uses a small cup at one end of the stem. The valve stem is placed in a guide hole made centrally in a circular passage in the cylinder head. The valve disc head opens and closes the ported passage leading to the cylinder during in and out movement of the stem. Fig."

"text": "\"Forages as a group are made up of many different types of plants, including grasses, legumes and other forbs, and shrubs. Most forage species, however, are grasses. Understanding grass growth is crucial information for a livestock manager. Grasses can be extremely productive when managed properly because they will grow back throughout the season when defoliated (grazed or mowed) properly. In fact, grasses will be healthier and more productive when defoliation occurs at the right time and in the right way. To maximize grass growth and therefore yield, knowledge of grass growth must be understood and appropriately applied. The first step in understanding grass growth is an awareness of the different groups into which grasses can be categorized. Grasses can have annual or perennial life cycles, tall or short statures, jointed or non-jointed regrowth mechanisms, sod or bunch growth habits, warm or cool-season responses to climates, and requirements or no requirements for vernalization. Annual/perennial grass types The labeling of plants as annuals, biennials, or perennials goes back to the early Greeks. Annuals Plants with annual life cycles complete their growth cycle in a single growing season (which is not usually an entire year), and are perpetuated by seed."

Even if you don't care for science, it's always fun to experiment with different ways of growing roses. Take rose propagating for example. I've experimented with so many different ways of propagating roses by cuttings over the past 18 years that it boggles my mind. Some methods were miserable failures, some were so-so, and others were fairly good. The more I read about how to do it, the more I got confused and frustrated, and the less successful my methods were. It seems that no matter what I did, even with an elaborate automatic misting box, I could not get my success rate over 50%, and sometimes it would fall to 30% and lower depending on the method of rooting roses that I used. I asked myself what I was doing wrong. Then, I spent some time researching information on an Internet rose propagating forum, trying to improve my skills for rooting roses from cuttings (sometimes called \"\"cloning\"\").

Some areas of this information may not fully agree with your Engine Repair textbook, it is your responsibility to locate those differences and bring them up during classroom discussions.quote:from carpenterracing.com Cylinder head ports fall into two basic designs: the Straight Shot port and the High Approach port. In a Straight Shot port, the design allows for a line of sight from the inlet directly to the front opening of the intake valve. Sometimes this design gives a lower flow value but because it is straight, we attain higher velocity of fuel/air entering chamber. It also creates a turbulent spin or swirling in the combustion chamber, yielding a more efficient and more complete burn. A High Approach port is where a turn is necessary in the port design. The term \"\"high approach\"\" comes from angle of the last section of the port relative to the valve - it is more in-line with the valve stem. We take advantage of this to get a full volume flow path in the complete 360° circumference of the valve. Making a turn to an airflow is problematic but we caress the turn - making it as moderate and efficient as possible - to use it in our favor. The straight shot into the opening yields a fuller, more uniform flow around the entire valve curtain."

The NC3T Blog By Hans Meeder The Merriam-Webster online dictionary defines “Literate” as “having or showing knowledge about a particular subject.” Having literacy is simply the state of being literate. So in thinking about STEM Literacy, our work in STEM education is built on the premise that, to be a well functioning worker and citizen in our modern, technology-driven world, all young people will need to achieve a certain level of basic STEM Literacy. Depending on how narrowly or broadly STEM careers are defined, we can surmise that perhaps 20 percent of careers are either classic “STEM-intensive” careers (5% that are science, engineering, mathematics) or “STEM-infused” (another 15% that rely heavily on content from one or more of the STEM disciplines.) Based on these workforce analyses, it is not unreasonable to say that about 20% of U. S. workers will be utilizing their STEM-expertise on a regular basis. But, to varying degrees, every workplace is being transformed by enabling technologies, and management reforms continually transfer decision-making downward, so strong analytical and communication skills are essential throughout the economy."

Such is the power and influence attached to the finance profession. Every government, organization, firm and corporation has financial interests and investments that are made and protected by financial analysts. Featured Schools If you think reaching the pinnacles of the finance industry can be done as easily as Jordan Belfort (think The Wolf of Wall Street ), then think again. Becoming a financial analyst takes hard work, dedication and an investment of time dedicated to the profession. However, with the right guidance and information, you can increase your prospects of becoming a financial analyst. Skills You’ll Need to Be a Financial Analyst Financial analysts are responsible for evaluating investment opportunities. They work in environments such as pension funds, securities firms, mutual funds, insurance companies and banks. Getting degree in finance or accounting might help you increase your chances of getting an entry-level job in the finance sector, but you will have to acquire these skills for possible career advancement. Confident Decision Maker —making predictions, giving advice, making judgment calls are all part of the everyday work of a financial analyst."

"text": "Tweet What Does it Mean to Study Finance? While a degree in accounting is meant to cover a diverse range of business functions across many industries, a finance degree takes a narrower approach. Financial accounting is separate from general accounting since it serves the decision makers outside of the organization, such as banks, government agencies, stockholders, and suppliers. A successful career in finance calls for a unique set of skills ideally suited to those who are outgoing and inquisitive by nature. Using your mathematical aptitude and abilities, you'll make suggestions to continue the financial growth of your organization or client based on their goals, resources, and options. Employment opportunities can be influenced by your GPA and previous professional experience. Types of Finance Degrees Finance degrees can be found at all degree levels and in a variety of settings. Over the last several years, online degrees in finance have become a popular way for business students and finance majors to earn the necessary credentials for securing employment within their chosen industry. Online programs are particularly well suited to many types of business degrees, including those in finance. Because much of the material is theory based and requires little or no hands-on requirement, courses in finance translate extremely well to the online learning environment."

There are many different positions in the financial services industry, and it often takes years for individuals to find and settle into a position that is a good fit for them. So what job is the best fit for you? In this article, we'll give you the tools you need to begin making this important decision. Character Traits In general, if you are a persuasive and knowledgeable individual and don't mind working long hours, a job as a registered representative might be a good fit. If on the other hand, you love numbers, are good at math and Excel spreadsheets, and relish delving into the financials of a public company, then you might want to be an analyst. If you have both skill sets, a position as a financial advisor could suit you best. Of course, it's important to understand most people who enter the financial services industry don't end their careers in the same position in which they begin. Most use the knowledge and experience they gain in their earlier jobs to find other positions that better suit their interests."

In addition, some professionals aren’t involved in either buying or selling, but they offer stock market advice and analysis.

While a degree in accounting is meant to cover a diverse range of business functions across many industries, a finance degree takes a narrower approach. Financial accounting is separate from general accounting since it serves the decision makers outside of the organization, such as banks, government agencies, stockholders, and suppliers. A successful career in finance calls for a unique set of skills ideally suited to those who are outgoing and inquisitive by nature. Using your mathematical aptitude and abilities, you'll make suggestions to continue the financial growth of your organization or client based on their goals, resources, and options. Employment opportunities can be influenced by your GPA and previous professional experience. Types of Finance Degrees Finance degrees can be found at all degree levels and in a variety of settings. Over the last several years, online degrees in finance have become a popular way for business students and finance majors to earn the necessary credentials for securing employment within their chosen industry. Online programs are particularly well suited to many types of business degrees, including those in finance.

This is hands down the best lasagna my lips have ever had the pleasure to come across. The sauce is made with San Marzano plum tomatoes, Italian sausage and just the right amount of herbs. I only get to eat it once a year when Pat’s on one of his hunting trips {because he’s not the biggest fan of ricotta, I know right?}. So when he’s gone hunting is when I get to cook all the things us girls like… and that he doesn’t. And every time I make this recipe I think to myself… ‘dangggg I need to make this more often’… it’s that good. The girls and I even had the leftovers the next night for dinner and they’re always good if not better then the night before. I swear something magical happens to Italian dishes in the fridge overnight. So I know what this looks like. It looks like an obscene amount of ingredients. But as you scroll through… you’ll see it’s not really."

"text": "How Long & What Temperature Do You Bake Frozen Lasagna?by Modern Mom Staff Share Tweet Frozen lasagna is a great go-to meal that can be easily heated in a pinch when you are otherwise too busy to cook a complicated meal for your family. Lasagna is a satisfying food, perfect for eating at either lunch or dinner. Prepared with ingredients at their optimum freshness and flavor before freezing, frozen lasagna is a convenient, fast meal that can be stored in its original packaging for up to 6 months. Freshly prepared lasagna at home, which is easy to make with simple ingredients, that is later frozen can be stored for the same amount of time, as long as it is properly wrapped and contained. Baking Time Store-bought frozen lasagna can be baked as-is, straight from the freezer, in a pre-heated oven. Package directions will indicate how long to bake the lasagna for, but as a general rule, it takes about 90 minutes to bake an average-sized frozen lasagna. For the first portion of the baking time, the lasagna will cook with its plastic covering still on with vents cut into it. For the second portion of the baking time, you will have to remove the plastic covering to ensure the cheese becomes caramelized. Baking Temperature Store-bought lasagna will have the proper temperature indicated on the packaging, but as a general rule, lasagna taken straight from the freezer to the oven will need to be baked between 375 degrees and 400 degrees. Freshly prepared lasagna that is then frozen to be eaten later will need to be thawed first before baking."

But if you've neglected to move your prize pasta dish from the freezer to the refrigerator, you'll have to factor in extra cooking time. \"\" For Best Results...\"\"There's a reason your cookbook strongly recommends thawing frozen lasagnas before cooking them. Because of its large size, using the \"\"thaw\"\" setting on your microwave is impossible. For obvious reasons, it takes longer to bake frozen food than refrigerated or room-temperature food. The larger the lasagna, the longer it takes to thaw. In addition, if the lasagna is put into the oven while solidly frozen, you risk that it will emerge with either a cold center or an overcooked perimeter.

"text": "How to Oven Bake Lasagnaby JACKIE LOHREY Oct. 03, 2017Oven-baking is the most common way to cook any variety of lasagna. With the exception of any meat included in the recipe and the pasta, which you cook before layering with other ingredients in the baking pan, baking serves to heat the food and blend flavors rather than cook the dish to a safe level of doneness. Thus, the baking times and temperatures needed for lasagna are generally the same no matter what the recipe's ingredients are. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Step 1Adjust an oven rack so that the lasagna will be situated in the middle of your oven. This improves heat circulation and ensures that your lasagna bakes evenly. Step 2Preheat your oven to a medium-high baking temperature of 350 to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Allow about 30 minutes of preheating time to ensure that your oven reaches the correct temperature. Step 3Cover the baking dish and bake the lasagna for 30 to 45 minutes or until a visual inspection shows the sauce bubbling over the top layer of pasta and cheese. Covering the pan prevents the lasagna's top layer from browning too quickly while the middle is still cooking. If your pan does not have an oven-proof cover, use a sheet of aluminum foil."

If you were to ask Mr. Mother Thyme what one of his favorite dishes I make is he would probably say lasagna. Every time I tell him I’m making it he gets a little twinkle in his eyes. So this past weekend when I told him I was making lasagna for Sunday dinner, I had one very happy husband!There are so many varieties of lasagna and one thing is that you can change the recipe to your liking. Some people prefer their lasagna with meat and sausage while others like no meat at all. I like making mine with just simple ground beef and I incorporate it in to my pasta sauce, which I featured before. After gathering up a few other key ingredients, such as ricotta, some other cheeses and spices you are ready to make your lasagna. What I love about this lasagna is making homemade noodles. Sure, it is easy to pick up a few boxes of lasagna noodles at the market, but by the time you boil the noodles, drain and let them dry you could roll make up fresh lasagna noodles. It is much easier than it seems and you don’t even need a pasta machine."

Organic chemistry is the study of carbon and the study of the chemistry of life. Since not all carbon reactions are organic, another way to look at organic chemistry would be to consider it the study of molecules containing the carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bond and their reactions. Why Is Organic Chemistry Important? Organic chemistry is important because it is the study of life and all of the chemical reactions related to life.

Most forensic chemists work for law enforcement agencies at the local, state and federal levels. Employment in this field requires an in-depth science education and the ability to present complex scientific information in a manner understandable to nonscientists, including police officers, attorneys and juries. Education Becoming a forensic chemist or any kind of forensic scientist begins with a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university. The American Academy of Forensic Science, AAFS, recommends a degree in a scientific field. For forensic chemists, this means a degree in chemistry. In addition to courses in chemistry, aspiring forensic chemists also should take courses in biology, mathematics, including calculus, and English composition. While a bachelor’s degree is sufficient for many jobs, AAFS cautions that some forensic science jobs require an advanced degree. Degree Advice When choosing a college or university degree program to prepare for a career in forensic chemistry, AAFS advises studying the types of courses offered to ensure that the degree requires extensive study in the sciences, especially chemistry and biology. The title of the degree is less important than the types of classes taken, according to AAFS."

That then leads to the American English usage of \"\" druggist \"\" for a pharmacist and \"\" drugstore \"\" for a retail pharmacy. In other words, pharmacist and druggist are the same thing. A chemist is literally one who is in the field of chemistry. However, chemist is also a UK and generally British English term for both a pharmacist and the retail pharmacy. So saying \"\"going to the chemist\"\" in most practical cases means going to a retail pharmacy, unless the context provides for the chemistry meaning.

"text": "Chemists in the Field Benjamin Chambers Technical Maltster, Miller Coors Suzanne Golisz Research Chemist, Chevron All Chemist Profiles Overview Quality management activities are those that ensure that a company’s products are exactly what they are supposed to be, that is, they meet all their specifications. Quality assurance (QA) and quality control (QC) are two of the main activities that are required to ensure a quality product. QA and QC are closely related, but they are different concepts. QA is a set of activities that ensures that development and/or maintenance processes are adequate in order for a system to meet its objectives, whereas QC is a set of activities designed to evaluate the developed products. Another way to look at it would be to think of QA as preventing and detecting quality problems and QC as detecting errors in the product. Chemists who work in quality assurance enjoy finding ways to reduce the possibility of error in manufacturing methods by using a big-picture view of product quality. Typical Quality Assurance Duties Develop and validate methods for analyzing and producing products to ensure they meet specifications and document those methods in standard operating procedures (SOPs) and production records Audit quality control, production and sales functions, and other records to ensure compliance with SOPs Assist quality control staff with troubleshooting and resolving unusual problems Develop quality metrics and assess trends for product or process implications Develop and implement improvements to existing sample and data analysis techniques Critically evaluate current processes and continually identify ways to save time and money without sacrificing product quality Investigate product, and process deviations, identify root cause, and develop corrective and preventative actions Participate in audits by customers and regulatory agencies and respond to customer complaints Education Quality assurance auditor positions generally require a bachelor’s degree in a related field. For example, an auditor in a medical device company might have a degree in a life science, nursing, or pharmacy. Career advancement for quality assurance personnel with a bachelor’s degree is more likely than in other types of work, but an advanced degree is still an advantage—especially if supervisory work is desired.

Chemistry is one of the most exciting and relevant areas of study because almost all aspects of life are to some degree related to chemistry. Chemistry is the science that is concerned with the composition of matter and the changes that matter undergoes. What is a Chemist? A chemist is a person who studies the composition, structure, and properties of matter and seeks to explain the changes that matter undergoes. Matter and Energy What is matter? It includes anything that has mass and occupies space. The earth, and everything on it, is composed of matter. The terms substances, materials, objects, and bodies are used to refer to matter. Examples of matter are as far ranging as the air you breath, the food you eat, the objects that you own, and the ground upon which you walk."

Based on their analyses, physical chemists may develop new theories, such as how complex structures are formed. Physical chemists often work closely with materials scientists to research and develop potential uses for new materials. Training for the Real World Physical chemistry has traditionally given students broad training, and positioned them to work in a variety of scientific careers. Many people trained as physical chemists ultimately work as analytical chemists, where they work to understand the fundamental process involved in analytical techniques, allowing them to enhance and expand those techniques. For example, Matt Lynch, senior scientist in the Beauty Care Division of Procter & Gamble, works in physical/analytical chemistry, conducting applied and basic surfactant research for product development applications. His work involves looking at the assembly of molecules and determining how to measure and quantify it. Lynch says, “We assemble molecules in crystals and solutions and look at how to measure that in terms of arrangements of atoms and molecules; how they grow to form bigger aggregates in solutions as well as in crystals; and how these aggregates of surfactants impart various properties to a product.” Lynch notes that he uses diffraction, infrared, and microscopy methods in his work. By developing better ways to measure and quantitate aspects of the ingredients, he helps his company develop better products."

CPS workers typically complete a master's in social work, though some may pursue degrees in counseling, psychology or a related field. Applying Social Welfare Policy Social welfare policy courses explore how CPS workers can develop strategies or policies to solve a social problem or meet the needs of target populations, like children. Most master's degree programs in social work include at least one class in social welfare policy. CPS workers use this training to find placement for children within the constraints of the law, connect families with government programs that can help them, or report abusive or neglectful parents using the right channels to ensure that they face legal consequences. Child Development for Counseling Some CPS workers may provide counseling for the children with whom they work, and training in child and adolescent development can help them meet the needs of these children. Some programs may include courses of this specific title, while others may include these topics within a course with a broader scope.

I’m pretty gullible when it comes to stuff like that, but I figure it’s better to be safe than sorry! I started off by cross-checking almost every bath & body product I was using on EWG’s Skin Deep Cosmetics Database. This is a great resource if you have a favorite product and want to know its potential hazard rating. I only felt comfortable using products with a rating lower than 4. As helpful as this was, I started feeling less trusting of the companies behind the labels. The cosmetics industry does have certain standards to live up to, but you can never know for sure if a label is completely honest! I know this mindset can send me off the deep end where I move into a tree house and eat leaves for the rest of my life, so in the interest of REALISM, I decided to take on a new hobby: SOAP MAKING!The idea of knowing exactly what was going into my most frequently used bath product was definitely appealing, to say the least.

"text": "\"Anonymous Answered Jul 30, 2015 In heat transfer analysis, thermal diffusivity is the thermal conductivity divided by density and specific heat capacity at constant pressure. [ 1] It measures the ability of a material to conduct thermal energy relative to its ability to store thermal energy. It has the SI unit of m²/s. Thermal diffusivity is usually denoted α but a, κ, [2] K, [3] and D are also used. The formula is: whereis thermal conductivity (W/ (m·K))is density (kg/m³)is specific heat capacity (J/ (kg·K))Heat capacity Heat capacity (often abbreviated Cp) is defined as the amount ofheatrequired to raise thetemperatureof a givenmassof a substance by one degree Celsius. Heat capacity may also be defined as theenergyrequired to raise the temperature of onemoleof a substance by one degree Celsius (the molar heat capacity) or to raise one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius (the specific heat capacity). Heat capacity is related to a substance's ability to retain heat and therateat which it will heat up or cool. For example, a substance with a low heat capacity, such asiron, will heat and cool quickly, while a substance with a high heat capacity, such aswater, heats and cools slowly. This is why on a hot summer day the water in alakestays cool even though the air above it (which has a low heat capacity) heats quickly, and why the water stays warm at night after the air has cooled.

Essentially this process involves activation of 4 sets of ion channels:1 the process is initiated when the nerve impulse reaches the neuron terminal and opens voltage-gated calcium channels in the axonal membrane. Calcium entry triggers release of ACh into the synaptic cleft2 Released ACh binds to ACh receptors in the sarcolemma, opening chemically gated Na+-K+ channels. Greater influx of Na+ causes a local voltage change (the end plate potential)3 Local depolarization opens voltage-gated Na+ channels in the neighboring region of the sarcolemma."

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Health Fitness Dieting and Weight Loss How much do personal trainers cost? Flag How much do personal trainers cost? Answer by Imingreatshape Confidence votes 28It depends on how much you can afford. Typically, many of the community recreation centers that have exercise facilities will also have personal trainers available. They usually don't charge too much for a little instruction and consulatation. You might be able to get one to help you for as little as $20.00 for a half hour session. On the other hand, a \"\"trainer to the stars\"\" will probably be in the \"\"if you have to ask how much, you can't afford it\"\" category. Depending on the person, most will give you good advice, but recognize that everyone has their own perspective and if you find that a trainer isn't meeting your needs you can always find another that might be better for you. Take a notepad and write down the advice for future reference. Generally $30 - $100 per hour for most trainers who are not \"\"celebreties\"\"."

"text": "03/06/2013Creatine: How Much Should You Be Taking? By John Kiefer Creatine is the most scientifically significant supplement of the past thirty years, and I’m not just talking about the bro-science here. It’s obviously known for making athletes bigger and stronger, but that’s not all it has to offer. Creatine’s benefits are numerous, but what most people—including most supplement manufacturers, if labels are any indication—don’t understand is what it does at the cellular level. This is important because your creatine levels can affect nearly every cell in your body. Believe it or not, we’ve known about creatine for over a century [1], and we’ve known for nearly that long that supplementing with it does good things. For years now, the basic explanation behind creatine’s efficacy is that it’s the active transport of ADP (adenosine di-phosphate) back into ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate). An elegant explanation, to be sure, but what does it actually mean? Beyond the Bro-Science ATP is the energy currency of your cells, and ADP results from the breakdown of ATP, which releases a phosphate molecule and ADP. ADP is then recycled, a phosphate is reattached, and ATP is formed again."

"text": "In today’s hypercompetitive business world, there are numerous reasons why an HR certification matters. For starters, one out of every two hiring managers prefer candidates with certification. According to the Human Resources Certification Institute’s 2014 Value of HR Certification Survey, 53% of the HR supervisors surveyed reported their organization prefers candidates with HR certification. In addition, the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projected the demand for human resources professionals to grow 9% by 2026. As the competition for this job grows, HR professionals with valuable certification may be more likely to stand out from the other candidates. HR: Then and Now Today’s human resources field is light years ahead of when HR was predominantly limited to administrative duties. Human resources professionals still perform traditional tasks like employment screening and answering benefits questions, but they are also pivotal in high-level planning with responsibilities like consulting with top executives to chart strategic direction and shaping key policies. The Importance of HR Certification It often makes a world of difference when you can show others just how dedicated you are to your career. In general, to be respected as a human resources professional and to be considered for higher level positions, you must have an HR Certification. This valuable credential can help distinguish you as an HR expert and professional."

The University of Cincinnati and Cincinnati Public Schools are working together with Cincinnati’s information technology industry leaders to address the shortage of qualified IT professionals through the creation of a new Early College Information Technology Program. The novel partnership will give CPS students the opportunity to complete their first year of UC’s IT bachelor of science degree program while they are in high school and earn automatic admission to UC. UC President Neville Pinto and CPS Superintendent Laura Mitchell will formalize the bilateral agreement in the Annie Laws Library at Teachers/Dyer Complex, the home of the College of Education, Criminal Justice & Human Services (CECH) at 11:30 a.m. Wednesday, Sept. 20.“This program will help in our efforts to achieve the state of Ohio’s goal of graduating more Ohioans with college degrees,” Pinto said. “ We are also proud to create an innovative program that partners with our Cincinnati Public Schools to provide students with opportunities to pursue college studies in a promising field with a high demand for workers. ”A class of 30 9th-grade students at Hughes STEM High School was selected to participate in the first year of the program, which is already underway.

"text": "\"Cardio Endurance and How to Increase O2 Delivery Generally, most people just do various cardiovascular endurance exercises and activities, but do not have a system or method that provides clear test-criteria and guarantees specific benefits after acheiving certain results. However, our system is based on the body oxygen test that predicts amazing health benefits at 60+ s for the body oxygen test. These benefits include 4 hours of great sleep (naturally and without trying), a natural desire (often craving!) to exercise, and many other effects (see the last Table on this page below). In order to experience these effects, you need to change the way you breathe 24/7 or to retrain breathing. Cardiovascular endurance is defined as the ability of the heart to provide enough oxygen to muscles during physical exercise for a long period of time. Elite endurance athletes always have very high VO2max (usually over 70 ml/kg/min in males). VO2max (maximum O2 consumption measured in ml of O2 per kg of body weight in 1 minute) is mainly an inherited factor. Therefore, you need to have super genes to become an Olympic champion. However, whatever your current VO2max, optimum training and correct breathing 24/7 can increase it by up to 15-20 units."

SUMMARY OF PROGRAM REQUIREMENTSGeneral Information Program Title: Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS)Synopsis of Program: Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are engineered systems that are built from, and depend upon, the seamless integration of computational algorithms and physical components. Advances in CPS will enable capability, adaptability, scalability, resiliency, safety, security, and usability that will far exceed the simple embedded systems of today. CPS technology will transform the way people interact with engineered systems -- just as the Internet has transformed the way people interact with information. New smart CPS will drive innovation and competition in sectors such as agriculture, energy, transportation, building design and automation, healthcare, and manufacturing. The December 2010 report of the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) titled Designing a Digital Future: Federally Funded Research and Development in Networking and Information Technology calls for continued investment in CPS research because of its scientific and technological importance as well as its potential impact on grand challenges in a number of sectors critical to U.

Bear in mind that ideal or healthy automatic breathing at rest is very small in amount, but mainly abdominal. Shallow respiration causes Shallow breathing is generally caused by one factor only: hyperventilation (or breathing more air than the medical norm). In normal conditions, hyperventilation cannot improve blood oxygenation in any significant degree: normal breathing provides arterial blood with 98-99% oxygen saturation. Hence, overbreathing reduces CO2 levels in the arterial blood. This causes decreased oxygen delivery to cells leading. Cell hypoxia and hypocapnia can cause a spasm in all muscles of the human body: airways, colon, arteries, arterioles, and the diaphragm. Shallow breathing can be triggered by anxiety, stress, night sleep (or being in a horizontal position), fatigue, mouth breathing, and other factors that cause hyperventilation. Shallow respiration symptoms The symptoms of chest breathing are very individual and can range from dyspnea (or shortness of breath, which is common during terminal cancer, HIV-AIDS, cystic fibrosis, COPD, emphysema, and many other conditions) and angina pain (a sign of low heart oxygenation) to blocked nose, sleep apnea, anxiety, fatigue and constipation. All these symptoms are analyzed on the web page Symptoms of hyperventilation."

"text": "What Does a Correctional Officer Do? Correctional Officer Careers Basics Correctional officers have the primary role of maintaining order within a detention facility, such as a local jail or federal prison. The detainees a correctional officer will oversee can be incarcerated for any number of reasons, which run the gamut from awaiting a court hearing for a minor offense to serving on death row. This means that the day-to-day duties of a correctional officer can vary widely. Some will work in transport, taking prisoners to and from court. Some will rarely have contact with prisoners, and will instead work in the administrative areas. Others will work “on the floor” at all times, supervising inmate activities, searching through cells for contraband, overseeing occasional visits with family, escorting inmates to the infirmary and other necessary duties. Correctional Officer Careers In-Depth Like many other jobs, not all correctional officers have the same primary tasks. Some have special training to deal with violent inmates or large-scale disturbances. These officers are highly-trained and might attend training sessions once a month or more in order to keep their skills sharp."

"text": "What Can You Do With a Communications Degree?09:15AM Jan 12, 2015 Savei 478 shares A communications degree is, as you may expect, all about learning how to communicate information effectively. Good communication is essential in just about every industry, helping to sell products to the public, maintain strong relationships with investors, clients and customers, and – not always as prominent but just as important – to make sure everyone within the business and outside are operating on the same page. Whether working among business executives or digital-age creatives, communication skills are very much sought-after, particularly in the modern world of business jargon, complex technologies and saturated markets. A communications degree will allow you to build awareness of how to communicate information to diverse audiences effectively, with specific business goals in mind. Strong communication skills are invaluable in order to provide meaning and resonance to the companies’ aims, and to present the company and its services or products in the best (and clearest) possible way to consumers, clients and colleagues. Often studied alongside media studies or journalism at undergraduate level, communications is also offered as a subject in its own right and can be taken further with a specialization at postgraduate level. Alternatively, you could start by studying communications at undergraduate level, before progressing to a master’s focusing on a field such as digital marketing. So, what can you do with a communications degree? Communications graduates have long been valued within businesses among human resources teams, helping to recruit, train and retain valued staff. Depending on the type of business your company conducts, there may also be room for communications graduates within customer- and client- facing departments such as public relations and marketing."

"text": "\"Tweet What Does it Mean to Study Law Enforcement? Aspiring law enforcement officers used to enter the police academy right out of high school in order to gain the training needed to obtain a job at the local or state level. However, in the past decade, law enforcement and police work has become increasingly complex, requiring more college education and training. In the past few years, a greater focus has been placed on national security. This means that more funding has flowed into the law enforcement industry, creating new jobs, making advanced research possible, and paving the way for more effective ways to fight crime and increase security. There is more to a law enforcement degree than simply becoming a police officer. Students with a criminal justice degree in law enforcement can become entry-level public or private security officers, security guards, corrections officers, or private bodyguards. Since nearly all large businesses need security, there are many different options for educated law enforcement professionals. Law Enforcement Job Requirements A career in law enforcement can be very rewarding, but it is dangerous and stressful.

But the MSL is ideal for technically-trained individuals who are interested in law, or those who want to understand and interact with law more effectively, but do not necessarily want to study law for three years or become a practicing lawyer. MSL students often want to leverage their technical knowledge by working in an “intersectional” – rather than purely legal – position.

The ileocecal valve is a sphincter located between the ileum (the last portion of your small intestine) and the cecum (first portion of your large intestine). Its purpose is to allow digested food materials to pass from the small intestine into your large intestine and to keep waste matters from backing up into your small intestine.

"text": "Kinesiology DESCRIPTIONKinesiology is the science of human movement, and uses muscle testing to identify structural, chemical and emotional imbalances in the body. The evaluation and healing of these energy imbalances is brought about by a broad spectrum of manual and non-manual therapeutic procedures. This technique uses the body's own biofeedback system to restore balance where there are nutritional deficiencies and to create wellness at a physical, emotional and spiritual level. Diagnostic Kinesiology One kinesiologist developed his own system of tests which begin by determining whether the problem is based in the spiritual, emotional, or physical bodies, or all of the above. Without touching the patient he connects his index finger and thumb of his right hand. Then he places the index finger and thumb of his left hand into an interlocking circle with his right hand. He will silently go through a system of checks and balances on the patient's body by asking questions and getting answers based on the strength of the connection between the fingers as he asks each question. For example - he could ask about a liver problem -- tug at the circles created by his fingers. If the circles remain closed it would indicate a positive answer vs. the fingers separating which would mean a negative answer. He does this procedure quickly - guided by Spirit as he works."

"text": "\"PSA: LED-Backlighting Can Cause Migraine Headaches Posted May 4th, 2011 by Scott & filed under Other. A little over two-years ago I began experience infrequent, but regular migraine headaches. Before this time, I had only experienced three or four migraine headaches in my whole life. They began a few months before I started law school, and they were happening about every two weeks. I started reading some literature on migraines, and learned that for some people, the headaches are “triggered” by some stimulus to which the person is sensitive. I was at a loss however, as I could not correlate the onset of my headaches with any particular stimulus. I saw a doctor, who seemed convinced that the headaches were stress-induced (first-year of law school, growing family, etc.). I disagreed, however, and continued to investigate. One day, I suddenly came to the realization that the headaches began around the time I purchased a new laptop computer for school. I had never had any problems using any computer before, so it never occurred to me that the purchase of the computer might be related to the headaches."

"text": "“Force is the language of cells. Whether those forces are applied by external means by way of soft tissue therapy application, or internal means by way of active muscle contraction and movement, the cells ultimately don’t know the difference. They simply receive ‘communications’ (forces) from their environment, and then adapt to those messages accordingly.”– Dr. Andreo A. Spina What is FRC®? Functional Range Conditioning, or FRC ®, is a trademarked system of mobility and joint control training, which, unlike many current systems, is based in scientific principals and research. Mobility, defined as the extent of controllable flexibility across articulations (flexibility plus strength), refers to the amount of USABLE motion that one possesses. In any particular articulation there exists both a passive, as well as an active range of motion. The passive range refers to the angles that are only attainable through passive means (ie. The application of passive, external force). The term ‘flexibility’ has historically been synonymous with this concept and has been the focus of many athletes, trainers, therapists, sports medicine practitioners, and society as a whole."

"text": "The Ileocecal Valve-An Overlooked Key to Good Health Digestion is one very important factor to good heath. Without proper digestive function everything else in your body will not work properly. The digestive tract is where you absorb nutrients and the building blocks for the cells in your body. The digestive tract also makes most of the neurotransmitters in your body and there are as many nerves in the digestive system as there is in the central nervous system. The Ileocecal valve (ICV) is located in the digestive tract in between the small intestine and the large intestine; this is right next to the appendix in the lower right quadrant of the abdomen. The ICV opens and closes periodically to let food travel through the digestive tract. When it is closed, food sits in the small intestine where nutrients, vitamins and minerals are absorbed. When small intestine is done with that portion of food the ICV opens and lets it go into the large intestine where water is absorbed. The food that is in the large intestine has considerably more toxins in it than the food in the small intestine because of the amount of digestion and breakdown that has taken place over time. In the large intestine the digested food is prepared to be excreted out of the body through the rectum."

I am a Kinesiologist, and kinesiology is not the only requirement. But then, from the other aspect, Nor is it even necessary to coach. You can coach locally without any degrees; but most fields or sports bodies still run a body of simple coaching courses and qualifications, so that you don't have to have a full, proper college degree or education to coach young people in a sport. Obviously, though, if you want to coach high school or at a higher level, then you need the more advanced quals; but in most cases, kinesiology is but one aspect of sport. To do the job properly you need to major in \"\"Human Movement\"\" or in 'physical education' generally. If you really want a top job, then you need to specialize and do a Masters or Ph D in a particular area or in an aspect that connects with coaching sports.denidowi · 1 decade ago1 0 Comment Asker's rating Kinesiology and that's what I'm studying right now :) Thanks for the additional input below.

Kinesiologists undertake years of training to be able to access the movement of energy - or what the Chinese call Chi - around the body and brain. They look for ways to improve the efficiency and performance of the human body while at work or at play by studying the factors that influence human movement. They establish the body's priority healing needs, and evaluate energy changes brought about by a broad spectrum of therapeutic procedures. What does a Kinesiologist do?

On the other hand, a polygon with one or more interior angles greater than 180 degrees is referred to as a concave polygon. A polygon can be defined as a closed plane figure (a two dimensional shape) that consists of three or more line segments. Polygons can be divided into many types. One such type is based on the internal angles. A convex polygon is the one in which none of the angles point inwards. In other words, it has no internal angle that is greater than 180 degrees. A polygon with any of the internal angles greater than 180 degrees is known as a concave polygon. In other words, a concave polygon exists with an interior reflex angle. A simple line test can be used to distinguish a concave polygon with a convex polygon."

What Is the Name of a 1,000-Sided Polygon? How Many Angles Does a Heptagon Have? Credit: infomatique CC-BY 2.0Full Answer A rectangle has four sides, so the sum of its angles is equal to 180 (4-2), or 360 degrees. A pentagon has five sides, so the sum of its angles is equal to 180 (5-2), or 540 degrees. This formula works for both regular and irregular polygons, no matter how many sides are involved. To find the measure of the angles of a regular polygon, simply apply the formula and divide by the number of sides."

"text": "Home »Physics How to Find Degrees in Polygons By Karl Wallulis; Updated April 24, 2017A polygon is a closed two-dimensional shape composed of three or more connected line segments. Triangles, trapezoids and octagons are common examples of polygons. Polygons are typically classified according to number of sides and the relative measures of its sides and angles. They also are classified as regular or non-regular polygon. Regular polygons have sides of equal length and angles of equal degree. You can calculate the degrees of the angles in regular polygons but can't always do so with non-regular polygon. Calculating the Angles Add the number of sides of the polygon. The sum of all the degrees of the interior angles equals (n - 2)_180. This formula means subtract 2 from the number of sides and multiply by 180). For example, the sum of degrees for an octagon is (8-2)_180."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For other uses, see Polygon (disambiguation). Some polygons of different kinds: open (excluding its boundary), boundary only (excluding interior), closed (including both boundary and interior), and self-intersecting. In elementary geometry, a polygon ( / ˈ p ɒ l ɪ ɡ ɒ n /) is a plane figure that is bounded by a finite chain of straight line segments closing in a loop to form a closed polygonal chain or circuit. These segments are called its edges or sides, and the points where two edges meet are the polygon's vertices (singular: vertex) or corners. The interior of the polygon is sometimes called its body. An n -gon is a polygon with n sides; for example, a triangle is a 3-gon. A polygon is a 2-dimensional example of the more general polytope in any number of dimensions. The basic geometrical notion of a polygon has been adapted in various ways to suit particular purposes. Mathematicians are often concerned only with the bounding closed polygonal chain and with simple polygons which do not self-intersect, and they often define a polygon accordingly. A polygonal boundary may be allowed to intersect itself, creating star polygons and other self-intersecting polygons."

A regular polygon is defined as a flat shape whose sides are all equal in length and whose angles are all equal. Visually, I like to think of these shapes as wannabe circles. These shapes so want to be circles that they are stretching their ends out as far as they can. Do you see this below, too? These shapes are all regular polygons."

The perfect hair tone is achieved by combining the entire person as a palette. Starting with the skin tone, then look at the shape of the hair, then look at lifestyle, and how you want to maintain. The perfect hair tone can only be selected by determining season, texture of hair, and what the desired effect is you’re trying to achieve. To decide what skin tone you are is very simple. It may be easy to tell if you’re a pale, medium or an olive skin coloring. I always look on the inside of the wrist of my client. If the veins there are more blue, you have cool melanin in your skin tone, if more green, you’re most likely a warm skin tone complexion. Once you have determined that, you can experiment with depth of any blonde, brunette or red hair color, as long as the proper tone is applied."

Wesley Hitt/Getty Images TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — It’s gotten to the point that it’s more of a surprise when the University of Alabama football program doesn’t finish No. 1 in recruiting than when it does. With Wednesday’s national signing day putting the lid on another recruiting season, Alabama is back in familiar territory as all of the major recruiting services had the Crimson Tide atop their team rankings—again. It’s a monster class, maybe the best head coach Nick Saban ’s ever put together. “We don't look at it like that,” Saban said when asked if another No. 1 class helps continue the program’s recruiting momentum. “I don't know how we're rated. I don't know how many of these guys, where they were rated, how many stars they had. I don't know anything about that."

"text": "\"Education Colleges & Universities Q: Why Does Auburn University Have Two Mascots? A: Quick Answer Auburn University, or more specifically its football team, does not have two mascots, but rather one: Aubie the Tiger. It is a common misconception that Auburn has both a tiger and a \"\"War Eagle\"\" as mascots. In fact, \"\"War Eagle\"\" is the Auburn Tigers' battle cry. Continue Reading Keep Learning Where Is Auburn University? What City Is Auburn University In? Where Is Auburn University Located? Full Answer The most popular history of this battle cry dates back to 1892, to the year of the first football match between Auburn and the University of Georgia. During this game, an eagle belonging to a Civil War veteran is said to have soared above the field at the precise moment that Auburn charged the end zone to victory. Shortly thereafter, the bird is alleged to have killed itself by flying straight down into the ground."

"text": "\"by Linda Cain Ruth Department of Building Science, Auburn University Updated: 03-15-2017Introduction Within This Page Introduction Description Application Relevant Codes and Standards Additional Resources The desire to play comes naturally to all children and its value is undeniable. The process of playing increases a child's self-esteem, opens a young mind to new possibilities, and develops social, verbal, and problem-solving skills. It is indeed as the old adage says: play is the child's work. Since its inception at the start of the 20th century, playground design in the U. S. has advanced dramatically from the traditional playgrounds of isolated metal pieces of play equipment to today's composite structures of imaginative play activities that are designed to high standards of safety and durability. Still, it is important to remember that the process and quality of play cannot be purchased. It is provided by the child's imagination and innate desire to play. Therefore, the goal of designing for play is simply to create an environment that will beckon to children and enrich their 'work' of play. Description The act of 'play' supports the development of children in many ways. The information contained within this Resource Page relates to the design and construction of public playgrounds. For home playgrounds, refer to the safety tips for home playgrounds and equipment that have been issued by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and the American Academy of Pediatrics."

They do not get paid to play football; instead, they are in college to study, learn, and earn a degree that will help them later on in life. They play football on the side, maybe as a hobby or as a chance to continue with a game they have loved since they were kids. Or maybe they play football because the scholarship it provides is their way to get through college. We all know that college football programs are practically professional organizations that just so happened to be affiliated with the university. They rake in millions from the revenues earned through ticket sales, merchandise and television rights. One only has to check the frenzy during game days, especially during season-ending bowls or during rivalry games like Ohio State against Michigan, Florida versus Georgia, and Alabama versus Auburn.

After the lesson, you can test your new knowledge with a brief quiz. What is an Acute Angle? An acute angle is any angle smaller than a right angle. A right angle is an angle that measures 90 degrees. A right angle forms part of a square, which is why it's often depicted by a square at the angle: So an acute angle is always smaller than the shown angle."

In planar geometry, an angle is the figure formed by two rays, called the sides of the angle, sharing a common endpoint, called the vertex of the angle. [ 1] Angles formed by two rays lie in a plane, but this plane does not have to be a Euclidean plane. Angles are also formed by the intersection of two planes in Euclidean and other spaces. These are called dihedral angles. Angles formed by the intersection of two curves in a plane are defined as the angle determined by the tangent rays at the point of intersection. Similar statements hold in space, for example, the spherical angle formed by two great circles on a sphere is the dihedral angle between the planes determined by the great circles."

The first way is based on whether or not the triangle has equal sides, or at least a few equal sides. Then the other way is based on the measure of the angles of the triangle. So the first categorization right here, and all of these are based on whether or not the triangle has equal sides, is scalene. And a scalene triangle is a triangle where none of the sides are equal."

"text": "Introduction to Angles We begin our study of angles by learning what they are, how to name them, and ways in which angles can be classified. These concepts are explained below. Angle An angle is formed when two rays meet at a common endpoint, or vertex. The two sides of the angle are the rays, and the point that unites them is called the vertex. The vertices are shown in red in the diagram above Naming Angles Angles can be named in various ways. One way is to use the ? symbol accompanied by three letters. The first and third letters indicate points on the two rays. The letter in the middle is the vertex. Note that the first and third letters are interchangeable because they both measure the same angle."

"text": "Pelvic tilt Reading time: Pelvic tilt is normally calculated as “the angle between the ground and a line drawn between the anterior superior iliac spine and the posterior superior iliac spine of the pelvis”, but it is also calculated as “the angle between the line joining the hip axis and the center of the end plate of the first sacral vertebrae and the reference vertical line” when using radiography. The hip and trunk muscles form force couples about the pelvis. The gluteus maximus and hamstrings work together with the abdominals to produce posterior pelvic tilt. The iliopsoas and rectus femoris work together with the erector spinae to produce anterior pelvic tilt. Inclinometer measurements of pelvic tilt are uniformly reliable across several different brands, with around 1 – 2 degrees being able to differentiate between individuals and around 3 – 4 degrees being able to identify a training effect. Normal values of anterior pelvic tilt seems to range between 6 – 13 degrees and is greater in females than in males. Pelvic tilt measurements may depend upon the measurement method used and radiography seems to result in normal values of 10 – 13 degrees. Despite commonly-held beliefs to the contrary, anterior pelvic tilt is not associated with lumbar lordosis angle in standing, peak hip extension angle (ROM), low back pain incidence, or abdominal strength as measured by the leg lowering test. However, anterior pelvic tilt is greater when lying in supine than when standing and when the foot is markedly pronated than when flat. Neither acute nor long-term hamstring stretching appears to affect pelvic tilt angle in standing."

These are called dihedral angles. Angles formed by the intersection of two curves in a plane are defined as the angle determined by the tangent rays at the point of intersection.

"text": "\"What Is Angle? Etymologically the angles got to be small [ Schwartzman ]:angle (noun), angular (adjective): from Latin angulus \"\"corner, angle.\"\" Latin \"\"-ulus\"\" is a diminutive ending, so angulus meant literally \"\"a little bending.\"\" In mathematics an angle measures how much \"\"bending\"\" or turning one line (= one side of the angle) does to get into the position of another line (= the other side of the angle.) The Indo-European root is ang- or ank- \"\"to bend\"\"; it is seen in the related native English word ankle, the bend between the leg and the foot. It is also seen in the word English, since the anscestors of the English lived in the angular-shaped region in Europe known as Angul. A related borrowing from Greek is anchor . However, the common definition of angle does not refer to the size of the angle at all: Definition An angle is a combination of two rays (half-lines) with a common endpoint. The latter is known as the vertex of the angle and the rays as the sides, sometimes as the legs and sometimes the arms of the angle. Under this definition, two angles are congruent provided either can be made to coincide (the vertex and the sides) with the other by a rigid motion."

Every professional truck driver knows that with the sun beating down, there can be tremendous heat build up inside the truck. There is so much truck heat at times that the inside of a large commercial motor vehicle feels like a bake oven. We have experienced it for ourselves. Sometimes it is all that a driver can do just to stay even remotely comfortable inside a hot truck with the sun blazing down during the long summer days. The question is: How Hot Can a Hot Truck Get? Based on what we've been able to find, there is little formal research on the subject of measuring the temperature inside large trucks, that is, how hot a hot truck can get. However, there is plenty of research on how hot cars get. We cannot verify it, but we would take a calculated guess that what applies to cars also applies to trucks with little variation. Some of the more heavily insulated trucks (like a Freightliner Cascadia) may heat up more slowly once the air conditioning is turned off when the truck is parked (assuming no idling alternatives)."

"text": "\"Home Buying Guides Power Tools Saws & Blades Miter & Chop Saws Floor Trim: Inside/Outside Corners at 90 Degreespacifics-best 18K Views 4 Likes Like Share January 7, 2007With a little practice, you can install floor trim like a pro. This column deals with the most common wall angle: 90 degrees. The first rule of thumb about trim is that once you determine the angle of your corner, the two pieces of trim that are being cut should equal the whole angle. In other words, if you are cutting trim for a corner that is 90 degrees, both angles of the trim should be 45 degrees to equal 90. This sounds a bit elementary but this rule comes in handy for learning to fit angles at any degree. Any two pieces of trim should equal the total determined degree you are working with. If you have a wall that has a turn of only 60 degrees, you must cut miters to equal the whole (20-40=60, 30-30=60 etc). The two miters do not have to be each cut the exact same angle but must equal the total degree of the turn. This rule is important because as you begin to install floor trim (or any type of trim), you will find that few walls are a perfect 90 degrees. You do not get a good fit on corners that are 91 degrees cutting two 45's."

It's not a particulary difficult procedure, but it's difficult to explain. As the name implies, we'll need DME, so if you're aircraft is not equipped with DME, this won't apply to you. An arc is simply a segment of a circle and you'll see on the chart that the plotted arc is exactly that, a segment of an imaginary circle who's radius is defined by a DME distance from the VOR. Arcs can come in all sizes and don't necessarily have to be based on the facility which is the navaid for the approach. The ILS to Fort Pierce, Fl also has a DME arc based on the Vero Beach VOR. In demonstrating this procedure, we'll be using a new piece of equipment, the Radio Magnetic Indicator (RMI). The interpretation of the RMI is simple, it's needle always points to the station.

If you are only a weekend camper, then you don’t have as many things to consider before you shut the door and drive off toward your favorite camping spot. If you are an extended traveler and will be gone from your home base for two or three months, then there are additional things that you must consider and take into account before you depart. And, finally, if you are going to be a full-timer, then you have a long list of considerations and actions to take before you sell your house and move into a motorhome or 5er. For weekend campers and extended travelers, the biggest headache is loading and unloading the RV—with your clothes, personal items, and food. After your first few trips out in your RV, you will soon discover that you usually pack far too many clothes from your wardrobe. You will find that you use a few clothes frequently, but seldom use most items. Many people find it easier, food wise, to prepare many meals, especially dinners, ahead of time, freeze them, and then only defrost and warm them up when they are camping. Be a bit cautious, though, since RV refrigerators and especially freezers are not as roomy as what you are accustomed to at home.

So I've focused most of this article on explaining heating degree days: Heating degree days In a nutshell: heating degree days are a measure of how much (in degrees), and for how long (in days), the outside air temperature was below a certain level. They are commonly used in calculations relating to the energy consumption required to heat buildings. Why are heating degree days useful?"

I have two 4-ton units in a house that was built in 1959. It's 98 degrees outside right now, and on one side of the house (west side) the vents are blowing out at 64-65 degrees and other side of the house (east side) is blowing at 68 degrees.

In many cases, they can be quite advantageous. The trick is to pick the right gauge for your application and understand that pressure gauges have a life of their own. When selecting a gauge, one must understand how a gauge works before they can pick a gauge that will work the best for any given situation. Physical characteristics: Is the gauge going to be threaded onto an application and if so, what kind of threads and what size? NPT threads, standard threads with an O ring, 1/8 NPT vs. ¼ NPT etc. Where do you want the nipple to point? Gauges can have the nipple sticking out of the outside circumference or out of the back, or have an offset nipple. PSIG or PSIA? Do you want your gauge to read the pressure you’re monitoring relative to the barometric pressure you are at or relative to the barometric pressure at sea level?"

W. Schumacher Co. Seed Stratification: 10/9/02Seed stratification is a time for moist seeds to sit preparing to germinate. Many seeds require a cold stratification period in order to germinate while some require a warm stratification prior to the cold stratification. Cold stratification is at the temperature of 34-41 Degrees F., while warm stratification is at the temperature of 68-86 degrees F. When a seed requires both a warm and cold stratification, the warm stratification is done first, followed by the cold stratification. A warm stratification is done to soften the seed coat or allow the seed embryo to mature. Only the mature seed embryo is capable of the cold stratification process. Seed must be moist to stratify. Most seeds are dried to below 10% moisture for best storage. Seed below 10% moisture does not stratify very much and will just sit dormant (this is good for storage prior to stratifying or sowing)."

Depending on your climate, plant care for cymbidium orchids can vary from easy to somewhat challenging. Cymbidiums are popular in temperate, sub-tropical climates such as California, where they grow outside year round. The warm, sunny days and cool nights (40-55 degrees) found in this area are perfect for these plants. Cymbidiums just aren't suited for growing indoors however. Without lots of daytime sun and cool evening temperatures (40-50 degrees) you'll get good looking plants but they just won't bloom. And isn't that why we grow orchids? In Northern climates, the best cymbidiums are usually grown in greenhouses. Don't have a greenhouse? Don't worry."

Continue Reading Keep Learning What Are Prevailing Westerlies? What Is the Difference Between High and Low Pressure? What Factors Affect the Temperature? Full Answer Trade winds are formed in regions known as the horse latitudes, which are subtropical areas characterized by high atmospheric pressures. These latitudes are found between 25 and 30 degrees, north and south of the equator. The high air pressure encountered by the wind currents in these locations drives the northeast to southwest movement of air in the Northern Hemisphere and the southeast to northwest movement of air in the Southern Hemisphere. These directional movements take into account the Coriolis effect in relation to Earth's rotation."

Ascent (negative values) is concentrated close to the solar equator; descent (positive values) is more diffuse. The Hadley cell, named after George Hadley, is a global scale tropical atmospheric circulation that features air rising near the equator, flowing poleward at 10–15 kilometers above the surface, descending in the subtropics, and then returning equatorward near the surface. This circulation creates the trade winds, tropical rain-belts and hurricanes, subtropical deserts and the jet streams. In each hemisphere, there is one primary circulation cell known as a Hadley cell and two secondary circulation cells at higher latitudes, between 30° and 60° latitude known as the Ferrel cell, and beyond 60° as the Polar cell. Each Hadley cell operates between zero and 30 to 40 degrees north and south and is mainly responsible for the weather in the equatorial regions of the world. Contents [ hide ]1 Mechanism2 History of discovery3 Major impacts on precipitation by latitude4 Hadley cell expansion5 See also6 References7 External links Mechanism [ edit]The major driving force of atmospheric circulation is the uneven distribution of solar heating across the Earth, which is greatest near the equator and lesser at the poles. The atmospheric circulation transports energy polewards, thus reducing the resulting equator-to-pole temperature gradient. The mechanisms by which this is accomplished differ in tropical and extratropical latitudes. Hadley cells exist on either side of the equator."

So, if you are looking for a place with great weather and great times, this is definitely the place for you. Temperatures: Being that Puerto Rico is in the tropics, it is summer all year long, so in other words, the temperature changes very little from season to season. In fact, the average low in winter in the coastal areas is only about 69 degrees Farenheit, and up in the mountains it gets to about 55 degrees.

A: Quick Answer The northeast trade winds are prevailing winds in the Northern Hemisphere at approximately 30 degrees latitude, which have the ability to quickly propel a ship across the ocean. In the Southern Hemisphere, at 30 degrees South Latitude, winds blow from the southeast, creating the southeast trade winds. Continue Reading Keep Learning What Is a Monsoon? What Winds Blow From 30 Degrees Latitude to the Equator? Where Is the Windiest Place in the World? Full Answer According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, warm air from the equator rises, flowing northerly toward the North Pole. As it moves away, it deflects to the right due to the Coriolis Effect, which makes an object appear to move to the right because of the movement of the earth. As the air cools, it descends in the tropics, blowing from the northeast toward the southwest as it returns to the equator. The trade winds from the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere meet in a zone ranging from 5 degrees North Latitude to 5 degrees South Latitude."

"text": "\"“New Chart for the Understanding of Mariner Instruments,” ca. 1740, The Mariners’ Museum. Compass and The Compass Rose There were many devices in different parts of the world before 1200 which pointed north. Some were lodestones (magnetic rock) suspended by a string, others were lodestones floating on a piece of wood, some were magnetized needles (magnetized by the lodestone) which floated on a straw and pointed north, or were magnetized needles which were suspended by a string. However, the first people to make a practical compass, that is, a magnetized needle supporting a compass card showing four or eight points of direction, seemed to be the Venetians in 1274. It was likely a valuable trade secret, so they didn't tell anyone. But after the year 1311, pictures showing maritime subjects all have a compass featured in them. Before that year, there are no pictures. The Chinese had used a lodestone for thousands of years, but it doesn't seem to be used for finding direction at sea. Those who did use a lodestone or magnetized needle did not have a compass card attached to it."

Air rises at the equator and sinks at the poles The uneven heating of the Earth causes differences in air pressure. At the equator, warm air, which is less dense, rises, causing a low pressure. This is because the equator receives more direct solar energy than any other latitudes. Cold air, which is more dense, sinks, causing a high pressure. The polar air then flows down toward the equator. Pressure belts are found every 30 degrees They separate convection cells, which are large, circular patterns of air."

Understand how they are part of the general circulation of Earth and the importance of the doldrums on a global scale. Definition of the Doldrums Way back in the 1700's, sailing voyages became more common and people started sailing farther. In both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, the sailors noticed that there was an area near the Equator where there was little or no wind. Without the wind to move their sail-powered boats, they would sometimes be stuck for days or weeks. They started calling these areas the doldrums. To be in the doldrums means to be depressed, to have low spirits, or to be inactive. This described what it was like when they got stuck crossing the Equator, and people have been calling these areas the doldrums ever since. The actual name of the doldrums is the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), and it is an important part of Earth's general circulation system. Earth has a global pattern of winds that looks like the picture here, but the only part necessary to understanding the doldrums are the winds closest to the Equator."

"text": "The Köppen Climate Classification System Have you ever wondered why one area of the world is a desert, another a grassland, and another a rainforest? Why are there different forests and deserts, and why are there different types of life in each area? The answer is climate. Climate is the characteristic condition of the atmosphere near the earth's surface at a certain place on earth. It is the long-term weather of that area (at least 30 years). This includes the region's general pattern of weather conditions, seasons and weather extremes like hurricanes, droughts, or rainy periods. Two of the most important factors determining an area's climate are air temperature and precipitation. World biomes are controlled by climate. The climate of a region will determine what plants will grow there, and what animals will inhabit it. All three components, climate, plants and animals are interwoven to create the fabric of a biome."

Unit Home Topic Home Chapter Home 3 Pictures 1 Animations 1 Videos Chapter Summary 0 Activities 1 Exams In this chapter: Deserts form due to atmospheric conditions, but in different ways depending on various factors Most deserts are around the tropics and form because trade winds create high pressure systems Some deserts are created through the rain shadow effect Some deserts form because they are simply so far inland that no moist air can get to them Other deserts form on coasts where cold water ocean currents create cold, dry air Temperatures in deserts can get hot because there are no clouds to block the rays of the sun Temperatures can also be cold in deserts at night or during the winter in non-tropical deserts Introduction The deserts in the world form differently depending on where they are located. With the exception of deserts in the polar lands, which are deserts simply due to the fact that they are so cold any water on the surface freezes (Refer Unit 2B, Topic 1), deserts are formed by atmospheric conditions that prevent rain. The atmospheric conditions that form a desert depend on where the desert is located and the geographical features in the surrounding areas. ( Refer Image 1)If you look at a map that shows where deserts are, you will see that a majority of them are located along the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. This is because of wind patterns in the atmosphere. The trade winds, or predominating winds that exist in the atmosphere above the tropics, push air towards the equator, where it warms and rises. The air travels through the upper atmosphere back to the tropics, where it cools, falls and starts the whole process anew. ( Refer Image 2) This falling cooled air forms a high pressure system which keeps away moist air and clouds and creates dry conditions. Another way deserts are created is through the rain shadow effect."

Click the image for a larger view. Trade Winds In the Northern Hemisphere, warm air around the equator rises and flows north toward the pole. As the air moves away from the equator, the Coriolis effect deflects it toward the right. It cools and descends near 30 degrees North latitude. The descending air blows from the northeast to the southwest, back toward the equator (Ross, 1995). A similar wind pattern occurs in the Southern Hemisphere; these winds blow from the southeast toward the northwest and descend near 30 degrees South latitude. These prevailing winds, known as the trade winds, meet at the Intertropical Convergence Zone (also called the doldrums) between 5 degrees North and 5 degrees South latitude, where the winds are calm. The remaining air (air that does not descend at 30 degrees North or South latitude) continues toward the poles and is known as the westerly winds, or westerlies. The trade winds are so named because ships have historically taken advantage of them to aid their journies between Europe and the Americas (Bowditch, 1995)."

"text": "The polar easterlies (also Polar Hadley cells) are the dry, cold prevailing winds that blow from the high-pressure areas of the polar highs at the North and South Poles towards low-pressure areas within the Westerlies at high latitudes. [ 1] Cold air subsides at the poles creating the high pressure, forcing an equatorward outflow of air; that outflow is then deflected westward by the Coriolis effect. Unlike the westerlies in the middle latitudes, the polar easterlies are often weak and irregular. These prevailing winds blow from the polar easterlies are one of the five primary wind zones, known as wind belts, that make up our atmosphere's circulatory system. This particular belt of wind begins at approximately 60 degrees north and south latitude and reaches to the poles. When air moves near the poles, cold temperatures shrink the air. This promotes air from warmer latitudes to flow into the area, causing a polar high-pressure zone. Air from this high-pressure zone then rushes toward the low-pressure zone surrounding the sub-polar region. The flow of air is altered by the Earth's rotation and deflected west, hence the name, between high- and low-pressure zones. Temperature and air pressure differentials and the earth's rotation combine to form global currents."

The Kailua-Kona side of the island can virtually be counted on for 74-degree and sunny weather no matter when you visit. Kauai - This island does tend to get a bit more tropical rain in September - but not enough to really prevent most outdoor activities. Tropical rain is a light warm rain that can be quite refreshing.

The system of muscles, bones and tendons that give the human body its structure are susceptible to a wide range of diseases, injuries and deformities. Orthopedic surgeons correct these problems through a variety of traditional and minimally invasive techniques, restoring functionality, mobility and quality of life. It's one of the most exacting specialties in medicine, with a lengthy period of training and correspondingly high salaries. Schooling Becoming an orthopedic surgeon typically requires eight years of schooling, although some schools offer accelerated programs. The first four years are spent in earning a pre-medical degree. These are bachelor of science programs designed to meet the prerequisites for admission into a medical or osteopathic college. A typical pre-med curriculum includes basic courses in physics, chemistry and biology, as well as more advanced work in organic chemistry and microbiology. The second four-year degree is a doctorate from a medical or osteopathic college, consisting of two years' classroom instruction and two years primarily spent in clinical rotations. Graduation from college makes the student a doctor, but not yet an orthopedic surgeon."

Answer by Btb603 Confidence votes 262007 Incomes for \"\"Sports Medicine\"\" Docs\"\"Sports Medicine\"\" is not an official Medical Specialty. There are 2 paths: Internal Medicine Residency and Orthopedic Surgery Residency. IM docs can see patient's in office and evaluate them. They often work for Orthopedic Surgeons who they refer surgical candidates to. IM docs lucky enough to be able to make such an arrangement can expect to take home approximately $250,000 per year. Orthopedic Surgeons pretty much all see sports injuries as part of their practice, especially when they're young and first building up a referral base. ( Patient's tend to choose doctors roughly their own age). Successful Orthopedic Surgeons can expect to earn between $400,000 and 1Million per year."

Pathologists are concerned with the diagnosis of disease based on the gross and microscopic examination of cells and tissue. Anesthesiology: Anesthesiology is the practice of medicine dedicated to the relief of pain and total care of the surgical patient before, during and after surgery. After completing four years of medical school, anesthesiologists (MD or DO) enter a four-year anesthesiology residency training program. Fellowships in an anesthesia subspecialty and in education or research may also be taken for an additional year. While anesthesiologists have been known primarily as physicians who administer anesthesia during surgery, they also provide medical care and consultations in other situations in addition to the operating room. The anesthesiologist’s role may be a perioperative (\"\"peri\"\" meaning \"\"all-around\"\") who provides medical care to each patient throughout his or her surgical experience. This may include medical evaluation before surgery, consulting with the surgical team, providing pain control and support of life functions during surgery, and supervising care after surgery and medically discharging the patient from the recovery unit. Anesthesiologists, as part of the spine team, frequently diagnose and treat patients suffering from acute and chronic pain syndromes. Some anesthesiologists complete pain fellowships and concentrate their practice on doing injections (such as epidural steroid injections)."

The term podiatry came into use in the early 20th century in the United States and is now used worldwide, including countries such as the United Kingdom and Australia. [ 1]Podiatry is practiced as a specialty in many countries, while in many English-speaking countries, the older title of chiropodist may be used by some clinicians [2] (not to be confused with chiropractic, which is unrelated). In Australia, graduates of recognised academic programs can register through the Podiatry Board of Australia as a \"\"podiatrist', and those with additional recognised training may also receive endorsement to prescribe or administer restricted medications, and/or seek specialist registration as a 'podiatric surgeon'. In many non-English-speaking countries of Europe, the title used may be podologist [3] or podólogo. [ 4] The level and scope of the practice of podiatry vary among countries. According to the American Association of Colleges of Podiatric Medicine, a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM) is a medical specialist who diagnoses and treats conditions affecting the foot, ankle, and structures of the leg.

This is a common refrain of people when they see a man buying OTC to cure his symptoms. Physician is another word used commonly for health care providers. We say that we have a family physician that looks after our health problems. If both, a physician and a doctor, treat our symptoms of illnesses, what is the difference between them and why two titles for the same qualification? Let us find out in this article. Physician If you look up a dictionary to find the meaning of the word physician, you would come to a conclusion that the person called as a physician is a healthcare provider who is trained to make diagnosis and then prescribe medications to treat the symptoms of various illnesses. Whenever there are symptoms that signal something wrong with the body of an individual, he gets an appointment with his physician to make sure he gets proper diagnosis and treatment, if indeed he is suffering from an ailment. When the symptoms are such that a physician feels the patient must be seen by a specialist, he has the power to refer him to a specialist. To become a physician, a student has to pass the entrance examination and get admission in a medical school."

"text": "4 0 Rate This MANAGEMENT IS CLASSIFIED AS A PROFESSIONAL DISCIPLINE BUT WHY? The nature of professionalism is reviewed and the argument made that records management can be classified as a professional discipline. Significant elements of a profession, such as university education, professional associations, and professional literature, have developed in records management. Further professionalization of the discipline has gained momentum with the development of electronic records, which have given rise to a new and distinct body of theory and knowledge and also triggered research activities. These developments permit records management to establish itself not only as a recognized profession, but also as a scholarly discipline. Records management was first identified and acknowledged as a distinct occupation in the early 19th century. ( 1) This activity arose in response to the growing amount of information and documents produced, used, and stored in organizations (both public and private). The need to control the production, storage, and disposition of records (i.e., documents received or created by an organization in the course of its business and retained by that organization as evidence of its activities, processes, and transactions) had become increasingly important throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. An ever-increasing volume of records has been a direct consequence of the information explosion. New information technologies (e.g., photocopiers, personal computers, the Internet) have added new dimensions to the problem of controlling records effectively and efficiently."

According to the Project Management Institute (PMI), project management is “the art of directing and coordinating human and material resources throughout the life of a project by using modern management techniques to achieve predetermined objectives of scope, cost, time, quality, and participating objectives.” You can extend PMI’s definition to construction project management, wherein a construction project manager uses the same model to achieve the same goal, only in a construction context. At its most fundamental level, construction project management handles the planning, coordination, and execution of a construction project, whether it’s agricultural, residential, commercial, institutional, industrial, heavy civil, or environmental."

"text": "\"Home »Career Paths »Compare Careers How to Become a Construction Project Manager By Alison Green; Updated July 05, 2017Mike Watson Images/moodboard/Getty Images Construction project managers combine their expertise in engineering and management to deliver projects on time and within budget. They prepare work schedules; manage a team that includes laborers, technicians and engineers; supervise subcontractor operations; and address emergencies. An interest in engineering or science; excellent leadership, business and decision-making skills, and a degree in construction or engineering are the tools you need to break into this position. Gain the Knowledge The first step for prospective construction managers is to complete an associate or bachelor's degree in construction science, civil engineering or building technology. Many workers use this credential to secure a lower-level job on a construction project and gain the technical know-how and experience required to move ahead. Although some workers who exhibit superior leadership abilities may be promoted to project management positions, others must complete a master’s degree in business administration or construction management to land the job. Master the Skills Project management is a multifaceted position that requires several key skills. To build and guide an effective and cohesive construction staff, for example, managers must have strong leadership and supervisory skills. When inspecting project sites, they need good analytical and problem-solving skills to detect and address unforeseen challenges. Because project owners often frown upon additional costs, managers must rely on business and time-management skills to minimize costs and ensure that construction activities meet deadlines."

"text": "Electrical Conduction System and Activity of the Human Heart Posted by Dr. Chris Tweet The heart has a complex electrical system which regulates the contraction and relaxation of its muscular wall. This enables the heart to function by receiving blood during relaxation and pumping it out with force to the lungs and other parts of the body. The rhythm of the heart beat is controlled by a natural pacemaker known as the sinoatrial node (SA node) which generates the electrical impulse. To prevent simultaneous contraction of the atria and ventricles, the atrioventricular node (AV node) delays the conduction of the impulse to the ventricle. Fibers from the SA node to the AV node (internodal pathways) and then from the AV node to the rest of the ventricles (Purkinje fibers) serves as the electrical ‘cables’ of the heart. Sinoatrial Node (SA Node)The Natural Pacemaker The sinoatrial node, or SA node, is known as the natural pacemaker of the heart. It regulates the rhythm of the heart beat by generating an impulse that causes the heart muscle to contract. The faster these impulses are generated, the faster the heart will beat. In order to carry out is function, the SA node has a specialized structure with unique characteristics that ensures it keeps the electrical activity ongoing throughout life. The SA node is a small structure, measuring in at about 3 millimeters wide, 15 millimeters and a mere 1 millimeter thick."

"text": "Disease Reference More Overview Symptoms Causes Risk factors Complications Diagnosis Treatment Preparing for an appointment Bundle branch block Overview Bundle branch block is a condition in which there's a delay or obstruction along the pathway that electrical impulses travel to make your heart beat. The delay or blockage may occur on the pathway that sends electrical impulses to the left or the right side of the bottom chambers (ventricles) of your heart. Bundle branch block sometimes makes it harder for your heart to pump blood efficiently through your circulatory system. There's no specific treatment for bundle branch block itself. However, any underlying health condition that caused bundle branch block, such as heart disease, will need to be treated. Bundle branch block Electrical impulses that cause your heart to beat (contract) originate in the upper right chamber (right atrium) of the heart and travel to the lower chambers (ventricles). In bundle branch block, the pathway that these impulses travel on is delayed or blocked. The pathway includes a bundle with two branches — the left and right bundles. If one of these is damaged, it can make it harder for your heart to beat normally, as your ventricles don’t beat in coordination with each other. Symptoms In most people, bundle branch block doesn't cause any symptoms."

The heart's pacemaker and conducting systems - electrocardiogram correlations Each normal cardiac electrical cycle starts with the generation of a regular depolarisation in a specialised area of cardiac tissue in the right atrial wall, known as the sinoatrial (SA) node. The electrical impulse spreads from here as a wave of depolarisation that causes atrial contraction. This corresponds with the P wave of the electrocardiogram (ECG). The process of spread of the electrical impulse from the SA node to the myocardium corresponds with the P-R interval of the ECG. The spread of conduction is as follows: The depolarising wave reaches the atrioventricular (AV) node at the AV junction, where the electrical impulse is conducted more slowly by another specialised area of cardiac tissue. From here, the wave of depolarisation is then rapidly conducted down a specialised bundle of tissue in the interventricular septum, known as the bundle of His. This bundle divides in its course in the septum into the right and left bundle branches that conduct the electrical impulse to the right and left ventricular myocardium respectively. A nebulous network of smaller conducting fibres known as Purkinje's fibres spreads the electrical impulse, from the bundles, throughout the myocardial tissues, causing ventricular systole. The spread of the wave of depolarisation through the myocardium and consequent ventricular activation corresponds with the QRS complex of the ECG."

Swadlow, University of Connecticut Dr. Stephen G. Waxman, Dept. of Neurology, Yale University, New Haven, CTFigure 1: Theoretical relationship between conduction velocity and axon diameter for small myelinated and non-myelinated axons. Modified from Waxman and Bennett (1972), as derived from several sources. The linear relationship for myelinated axons intersects the parabolic relation for non-myelinated axons at a point corresponding to a diameter of about 0.2 microns (vertical arrow). Empirically, in the central nervous system, very few myelinated axons are found with diameters of < 0.3 microns, and very few non-myelinated axons are found with diameters of > 0.3 microns (e.g., Waxman and Swadlow, 1976)Axonal conduction delays refer to the time required for an action potential to travel from its initiation site near the neuronal soma to the axon terminals, where synapses are formed with other neurons, muscles or glands. Differences among axons (and their branches) in conduction delays are due to differences in axonal conduction velocity and conduction distance. Conduction delays vary greatly in the mammalian nervous system, from < 100 microseconds in very short axons to > 100 ms in very long non-myelinated central axons. Whereas minimizing conduction delays is clearly beneficial to speed-sensitive processes ( reflexes, perceptual skills, escape responses), rapid conduction comes at a very high price in brain volume. In monkeys, for example, the fastest axons are ~ 20 microns in diameter and conduct at ~ 120 m/s. By contrast, the slowest axons are ~ 0.1 micron in diameter and conduct at ~ 0.3 m/s."

"text": "The Heart's Electrical Sequence The synchronized electrical sequence of the heart is initiated by the SA node, the heart's natural pacemaker. The firing of the SA node sends out an electrical impulse via its neurons to the right atrium, left atrium, and AV node simultaneously. Since the right atrium is closer to the SA node, it depolarizes first, resulting in pumping action by the right atrium before the left atrium. At the AV node, the impulse is delayed to allow for the ventricles to fill up with blood. After the delay, the AV node sends the impulse to the Bundle of His and the Purkinje fibers. This triggers the contraction of the ventricles to send blood either to the lungs or out to the body. Component of the electrical sequence Association in the heart P Wave Firing of the SA node and depolarization of the atria. PR Interval Delay of the electrical impulse at the AV node and the depolarization of the atrium.

Share Flipboard Email Print John Bavosi/Science Photo Library/Getty Imagesby Regina Bailey Updated February 17, 2018Have you ever wondered what causes your heart to beat? Your heart beats as a result of the generation and conduction of electrical impulses. Cardiac conduction is the rate at which the heart conducts electrical impulses. These impulses cause the heart to contract and then relax. The constant cycle of heart muscle contraction followed by relaxation causes blood to be pumped throughout the body. Cardiac conduction can be influenced by various factors including exercise, temperature, and endocrine system hormones. Step 1: Pacemaker Impulse Generation The first step of cardiac conduction is impulse generation. The sinoatrial (SA) node (also referred to as the pacemaker of the heart) contracts, generating nerve impulses that travel throughout the heart wall. This causes both atria to contract."

They are further classified as first-, second-, or third-degree block. Description The muscles of the heart contract in a rhythmic order for each heart beat, because electricalimpulses travel along a specific route called the conduction system. The main junction of thissystem is called the atrioventricular node (AV node). Just as on a highway, there areoccasionally some delays getting the impulse from one point to another. These delays areclassified according to their severity. In first-degree heart block, the signal is just slowed down a little as it travels along the defectivepart of the conduction system so that it arrives late traveling from the atrium to the ventricle. In second-degree heart block, not every impulse reaches its destination."

Description Bundle branch block belongs to a group of heart problems called intraventricular conductiondefects (IVCD). There are two bundle branches, right and left. The right bundle carries nerveimpulses that cause contraction of the right ventricle (the lower chamber of the heart) and the leftbundle carries nerve impulses that cause contraction of the left ventricle. The two bundles initiallyare together at a junction called the bundle of His. Nerve impulses come through the sinus node of the heart to the bundle of His and then move into the right and left bundle branches. Bundlebranch block is a slowing or interruption of nerve impulses. A problem may exist in any of thethree bundles. Patients with BBB are generally without symptoms unless the disease is severe enough to cause a complete infranodal A-V block and very slow heart rate."

These junctions, thought to be substrates for chemical transmission, occur between two dendrites ( dendrodendritic synapses ), a dendrite and an axon ( dendroaxonic synapses ), a dendrite and a soma ( dendrosomatic synapses ), and any part of a neuron and a node of Ranvier ( nodal synapses ). In some cases, synapses have been described in which a single element is both pre- and postsynaptic to a second element. This arrangement, a reciprocal synaptic arrangement, is illustrated in Figure 13-2. Note the accumulation of synaptic vesicles on what is presumed to be the presynaptic side of each synapse. The function of this arrangement is unknown. The physiology of these new synaptic arrangements has not been studied in detail yet, but it can be presumed for now that they behave like other chemical synapses. Their presence certainly broadens the possibilities for interactions between neurons in the central nervous system. Fig. 13-2."

"text": "Myelin Function Download PDF Copy By Sally Robertson, BSc The myelin sheath is a protective covering that surrounds fibres called axons, the long thin projections that extend from the main body of a nerve cell or neuron. This sheath is composed of protein and lipids. Axons vary in length from 1 millimetre to up to 1 metre or more and carry nerve signals away from the main neuronal body to other nerve cells, muscles and glands. When axons are bundled together, they form nerves which create a network for the passage of electrical nerve impulses across the body. The main function of myelin is to protect and insulate these axons and enhance their transmission of electrical impulses. If myelin is damaged, the transmission of these impulses is slowed down, which is seen in severe neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis. How does myelin enhance the transmission of electrical impulses? Myelin surrounds and insulates the axon and builds specialized molecular structures at small, uncovered gaps in the sheath, which are referred to as the nodes of Ranvier. In the case of unmyelinated axons, the nerve impulse (action potential) moves along the axon continuously. By contrast, in a myelinated nerve fiber, currents can only occur where the axonal membrane is uncovered, at the nodes of Ranvier."

Despite the severe-sounding name, heart block may often cause no symptoms at all in some cases, or occasional missed heartbeats in other cases (which can cause lightheadedness, syncope (fainting), and palpitations ), or may require an artificial pacemaker to be implanted, depending upon exactly where in the heart conduction is being impaired and how significantly it is affected. In severe cases where the heart's ability to control and trigger heartbeats may be completely ineffective or unreliable, heart block can usually be treated by inserting an artificial pacemaker, a medical device that provides correct electrical impulses to trigger heart beats, compensating for the natural pacemaker's unreliability. Therefore, heart block frequently has no effects, or mild and occasional effects, and is not life-threatening in the vast majority of cases, and is usually treatable in more serious cases. The human heart uses electrical signals to maintain and initiate the regular heart beat in a living person; incorrect conduction can lead to mild or serious symptoms depending upon the location of the blockage and how severely conduction is being blocked. Conduction is initiated by the sinoatrial node (\"\"sinus node\"\" or \"\"SA node\"\"), and then travels to the atrioventricular node (\"\"AV node\"\") which also contains a secondary \"\"pacemaker\"\" that acts as a backup for the SA nodes, then to the bundle of His and then via the bundle branches to the point of the apex of the fascicular branches (shown in the diagram on the right). Blockages are therefore classified based on where the blockage occurs - namely the SA node (\"\" Sinoatrial block \"\"), AV node (\"\" AV block \"\" or AVB ), and at or below the bundle of His (\"\"Intra-Hisian\"\" or \"\"Infra-Hisian block\"\" respectively). Infra-Hisian blocks may occur at the left or right bundle branches (\"\" bundle branch block \"\") or the fascicles of the left bundle branch (\"\"fascicular block\"\" or \"\" Hemiblock \"\"). SA and AV node blocks are each divided into three degrees, with second degree blocks being divided into two types (written either \"\"type I or II\"\" or \"\"type 1 or 2\"\"). The term \"\" Wenckebach block\"\" is also used for second degree type 1 blocks of either the SA or AV node; in addition second degree blocks type 1 and 2 are also sometimes known as \"\" Mobitz 1\"\" and \"\"Mobitz 2\"\"."

These action potentials result in excitation of muscle fibers throughout the myocardium. Impulse formation and conduction result in weak electrical currents that spread through the entire body. These impulses are recorded on an electrocardiogram. Disorders of cardiac impulse generation and conduction range from benign arrhythmias that are merely annoying to those causing serious disruption of heart function and sudden cardiac death. HIn certain areas of the heart, the myocardial cells have been modified to form the specialized cells of the conduction system. Although most myocardial cells are capable of initiating and conducting impulses, it is the conduction system that maintains the pumping efficiency of the heart. Specialized pacemaker cells generate impulses at a faster rate than other types of heart tissue, and the conduction tissue transmits these impulses at a more rapid rate than other cardiac cell types. Because of these properties, the conduction system usually controls the rhythm of the heart. Blood reaches the conduction tissues by way of the coronary blood vessels."

While it is a relatively simple test to perform, the interpretation of the ECG tracing requires significant amounts of training. Numerous textbooks are devoted to the subject. The heart is a two stage electrical pump and the heart's electrical activity can be measured by electrodes placed on the skin. The electrocardiogram can measure the rate and rhythm of the heartbeat, as well as provide indirect evidence of blood flow to the heart muscle. A standardized system has been developed for the electrode placement for a routine ECG. Ten electrodes are needed to produce 12 electrical views of the heart."

Take a Hoboken-bound PATH train from 33rd and Sixth to the Hoboken Terminal. Carlo's is a short walk from the Terminal, at 95 Washington Street. You'll need to use a Metro Card for the subway and also for the PATH train. There is no free transfer between these two independently operated systems."

"text": "How Bit Deli thinks it can bring analytics to the people Derrick Harris Nov 29, 2012 - 2:04 PM CDT2 Comments Credit: Shutterstock / ramcreations Tweet Share Post San Francisco startup Bit Deli launched on Thursday with a simple mission: To let as many people as possible measure as many things as they want to. If it’s correct, the secret to the company’s success will be just a few lines of Python code. Bit Deli is targeting small to medium-sized businesses that need something between the easy-but-limited Google Analytics (s goog) on one end of the spectrum, and a full-fledged Hadoop cluster on the other. According to Co-founder and CEO Ville Tuulos, many companies start small with some simple web analytics, but eventually realize they need something more. Especially if that something more involves tracking custom metrics unique to their business (e.g., how many Mac (s aapl) users are buying T-shirts or how many people are buying products within social games), he said, the natural instinct is to do what they see everyone else doing and try deploying Hadoop or maybe a Mongo DB database. The problems with that approach are pretty easy to spot: Deploying and managing those types of systems can be difficult, and they’re not particularly helpful if you’re trying to track your data in real time. Bit Deli fills the gap, Tuulos explained, by letting developers easily set up custom analytic functions using Python scripts. They can be as simple or complex as necesary — even incorporating techniques such as machine learning — and they’re consumable by the entire company via a simple collection of dashboards called “cards. ”The service, which is hosted on the Amazon Web Services (s amzn) cloud, also keeps a database for each user so they can analyze historical data as well as the streaming data that Bit Deli really focuses on. Tuulos compares what Bit Deli is trying to do to how frameworks such as Rails democratized web development earlier this century."

If you are in a residential neighborhood where there are more locals than tourists or business people on expense accounts, the prices tend to be lower. Some cuisine choices , especially Chinese and Thai, are more budget friendly than others. Lunches usually cheaper than dinners (often half or less), so if you want to go to a splurgey place, you can do it that way. Hamburger prices?"

Jan 24, 2012, 3:53 PMWhat do YOU think of when somebody says “let’s go to a deli”? The recent debate about delis made me realize that maybe not all readers may be working with the same definition. Personally speaking, the word “deli” has two different meanings to me, depending on what geographic area I’m talking about. When I’m in New York and think “deli”, I think Katz’s, 2nd Ave, etc. A sit-down restaurant that serves corned beef, pastrami, half sour pickles (my favorites!) and Jewish specialties along with some non-ethnic stuff like burgers, fries, salads. But when I’m at home ( Boston) and I think “deli” I think of it as a place to buy Italian-American specialties, cold cuts (Genoa salami, prosciutto) and made to order sandwiches or salads but with no tables or just a few … most of the business is take-out. I grew up in a suburb of Boston that has two active synagogues and a Kosher butcher shop, so Jewish food is not completely foreign to me. For a while my home town had a restaurant that I would classify as a “New York style deli” but they didn’t even use “deli” in their name. ("

When luscious images of pastrami and corned beef are envisioned, they are normally from the iconic NYC delis. The first time I ate at Katz’s Deli off of Houston Street, it was a revelation. Never had corned beef taste so good (which I love in general and wish that St. Patrick’s Day occurred more than once a year). Pastrami had never tasted so good. That is, until now. Tucked away in Lexington, MA, outside of Boston is Neillios Gourmet Kitchen. Once (or sometimes twice) a week, it serves one of the best pastrami I’ve ever tasted and easily the finest pastrami in all of the Boston area. About Romania Pastrami and recipe Pastrami is a technique, not a specific cut of meat. Pastrami was traditionally prepared using beef navel, but it is much more popular to use beef brisket nowadays."
