Capillaries are the smallest arteries that supply vital oxygen and nutrients to cells and tissues. A steady supply of oxygen and nutrients are critical to the health of the cells and tissues of the fingers and toes. Narrowing of the blood vessels that occurs in Raynaud's phenomenon interferes with this supply. This is called ischemia. In ischemia, cells are unable to reproduce normally, recover effectively from injury, and fight infection. This leads to the symptoms and complications of Raynaud's phenomenon."

There is no obvious source of heat to trigger the sensation and it is not overt pain. Sometimes it is taken less seriously than pain but a burning sensation may be occurring for some of the same reasons as pain would occur. There could be underlying disease or damage to the tissues of the toes and without prompt medical attention it can lead to serious complications. Burning in the toes may occur for many of the same reasons as a burning sensation in the feet or entire lower leg. It is important that the exact cause be diagnosed and treated promptly to prevent the situation from worsening. There are a host of possible causes by the more common causes of burning toes and feet have been discussed below. Also refer to 5 common reasons for burning feet.

When the thyroid gland (the butterfly-shaped gland in the base of your neck) goes on the fritz, it doesn’t properly produce thyroid hormones, which control metabolic rate, blood pressure, tissue growth, and skeletal and nervous system development. “ Thyroid problems cause severe dryness of the skin,” says Marlene Reid, DPM, a foot specialist in Naperville, Illinois. “ When we see cracking on the feet, or if moisturizer doesn’t improve dryness over a few days, we usually refer patients to their primary doctor to make sure their thyroids are OK.” Brittle toenails can also signal thyroid complications.

Symptoms in the fingers and toes include unusual paleness and/or a red or bluish color to the skin. Occasionally other parts of the body are affected including the nose, ears, and/or tongue.

Possible complications of a broken toe include nail injury, compound fracture, infection, deformity, or arthritis.

A broken toe is diagnosed with a medical examination, which may include X-rays. To help decrease pain and swelling in a broken toe, elevate the foot, ice the injury, and stay off the foot.

"text": "Orthopedics Leg, Foot & Ankle Joint Pain in the Feet: One of the Symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis The majority of people with rheumatoid arthritis develop foot symptoms By Catherine Moyer, DPM | Reviewed by Grant Hughes, MDUpdated July 05, 2017Share Pin Email Print Credit: Stockbyte/Stockbyte/Getty Images Ask anyone who has it: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a devastating diagnosis to receive, as it is an autoimmune disease that can cause severe pain and joint deformity and also happens to be incurable. However, if there were ever a good time to be diagnosed with this incurable illness, it's now, as the treatment options available are the most advanced they have ever been—and they are allowing many people with RA who would have otherwise been destined for wheelchairs to live full and active lives. One of the early signs of rheumatoid arthritis is stiffness, pain, and swelling in the hands and feet. The onset is gradual for some and immediate for others, but regardless, most people with RA wake up one day and realize that the joints in the ball or sole of their feet are too painful to walk on. At the same time, they might also notice their fingers stiffen while trying to open a jar, or that they can't bend certain finger joints while cooking because it's too painful. As the disease progresses, pain and stiffness may spread to the wrists, elbows, shoulders, knees, ankles, and hips. What Causes Rheumatoid Arthritis? With RA, the immune system attacks the body's own joint tissues, resulting in inflammation, which can cause progressive damage to affected joints. Specifically, the immune system attacks the fluid within joints as well as the joint lining, known as the synovium. The synovium becomes acutely inflamed, causing a warm and swollen joint."

There are three types of arthritis – Rheumatoid arthritis, Osteo-arthritis and the less common form, Gout What is it? / How do I know I have it? Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a condition that causes inflammation in many joints of the body which particularly affects the hands, feet, wrists, ankles and knees – and tends to occur symmetrically. For example, if your right big toe is swollen and painful, chances are your left big toe will be too. In addition, as well as joint pain and stiffness, symptoms include muscle aches, anaemia (a low blood count leaving you feeling tired), and fever. The stiffness tends to be worse in the morning and after rest. What causes the problem? Unlike osteo-arthritis, which is caused by wear and tear, RA is a chronic inflammatory disease where a faulty immune system attacks the tissue that lines and cushions the joints, leaving them swollen, painful and stiff. RA tends to affect the smaller joints such as the fingers and toes first, so feet are often one of the first places to be affected."

However, your symptoms might result from various autoimmune disorders, such as lupus, in which your body’s own immune system mistakenly attacks itself. Joint and skin conditions may last only a few weeks or may be chronic -- appearing and reappearing over a lifetime. Only your doctor can diagnose the exact cause of your symptoms. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Sarcoidosis Sarcoidosis, an autoimmune disease that can affect multiple organs, results in masses of inflamed tissue that can affect your lungs, heart, liver, skin, lymph nodes, joints, muscles and bones. Sarcoidosis affects tens of thousands of people in the United States, according to a 2007 report from the Boston University School of Medicine. One common form of sarcoidosis, erythema nodosum, which causes raised, red and tender bumps on your skin, along with swelling and pain in your joints, often disappears on its own in six to eight weeks. However, you must seek treatment for a chronic form of skin sarcoidosis, called lupus pernio, which produces peeling lesions on your face and ears. Another kind of sarcoidosis, musculoskeletal sarcoidosis, produces early-onset or late-onset arthritis as well as skin disorders. Early-onset arthritis produces pain, stiffness and swelling in your joints in conjunction with erythema nodosum and commonly heals itself in a few weeks or months."

Peripheral vascular disease means narrowing of the lumen of arteries in the legs, causing a reduction in circulation. It can occur in individuals without diabetes but is more common and more severe in people with diabetes. Why this is the case is not clear, but it is well established that smoking makes peripheral vascular disease much worse. Although both big and small blood vessels can be affected by diabetes (known as macrovascular and microvascular disease respectively), in diabetic peripheral vascular disease it is blockage of the larger arteries in the thigh and leg which causes most of the clinical problems. Peripheral vascular disease can affect both legs but is often more severe on one side (contrast with peripheral neuropathy which affects both feet symmetrically). The large arteries are blocked, causing problems. Here are the typical sites of blockages of the arteries (shown in green)What problems can be caused by peripheral vascular disease?"

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a very common condition that affects between 12 to 20 percent of Americans over age 65. PAD occurs most often in the arteries of the legs but can also affect the arteries that carry blood to the brain, the arms, the kidneys and other vital organs. When blockages affect the arteries to the heart, this is called coronary artery disease. The buildup of plaque in arteries causes the arteries to harden and narrow and this significantly reduces blood flow. This serious condition is called atherosclerosis. Other names for PAD include: Hardening of the arteries Poor circulation Leg cramps from poor circulation Claudication People with hardening of the arteries in the legs also frequently have hardening of the arteries to the heart and brain. This is why PAD is considered a significant marker for increased risk of having a heart attack or stroke. When the blockages in the legs are mild or moderate, treatment for the leg blockages may not be necessary but it is very important to know so you can reduce the risks of heart attack, stroke and disease progression. More serious blockages cause further reductions in blood flow which causes pain during walking and can lead to disabling symptoms that seriously affect quality of life."

Ayurveda, or ayurvedic medicine, is a healthy-lifestyle system that people in India have used for more than 5,000 years. Ayurveda emphasizes good health and prevention and treatment of illness through lifestyle practices (such as massage, meditation, yoga, and dietary changes) and the use of herbal remedies. Ayurvedic medicine is holistic, which means viewing the body and mind as a whole. Ayurveda not only treats a person's physical complaints, but it also changes lifestyle practices to help maintain or improve health. According to ayurveda, the five elements of nature (space, air, fire, water, earth) combine in the body as three components (doshas) known as Vatta, Pitta, and Kapha. These doshas relate closely to the basic elements of nature and to specific functions of the body. A balance of these doshas is thought to be required for optimal health.

Here we present eight different aspects of Kapha: Kapha in the sense of water and mucus Kapha in the sense of tastes Kapha in the sense of the artery system Kapha in the sense of health Kapha in the sense of disease Kapha in the sense of aggravating agents Kapha in the sense of diagnosis Kapha in the sense of treatment Kapha in the Sense of Water and Mucus The metaphysical “Water Element” is known by its properties, while ordinary water demonstrates its innate nature. As with Vata and Pitta, the formula for the properties of the Water Element has a direct correspondence to the formulas of the biological substances mucus and Kapha. Kapha contains the physical properties of Guru (heavy), Shita (cold), Mridu (soft), Snigdha (grease), Sthira (stable) and Picchila (viscous). All of these physical properties except Sthira (stable) belong to the Ayurvedic description of the properties of water. Ayurveda therefore introduces Kapha (mucus) as being a biological water containing one property from the Earth Element. That the physical property called stability (Sthira) is included indicates that, in Ayurvedic understanding, the biological water of the body contains some of the Earth Element. That is, the biological water of the body contains stabilizing substances. Weight depends upon the amount of both water and earth. Anything that contains more water and Earth Elements (in comparison to the other elements) in considered heavy."

When a person attains puberty, his or her sebaceous glands or oil glands become proactive, secreting excess sebum or oil that clogs skin pores and inflames hair follicles, resulting in a series of skin problems collectively named as ‘acne’. The pores are congested not only by sebum, but also by dry skin and dirt and a buildup of bacteria that worsen acne conditions. Acne lesions appear on the skin of the face, neck, shoulders and chest, and may be a cause of embarrassment because the age-group prone to acne break-outs are usually very conscious about their looks. If it is chronic in nature, it may lead to severe scarring. Acne may be of the following types: black heads, white heads, pus-filled yellowish bumps or pustules, firm large swellings underneath the skin or nodules and cystic acne. Acne is called “Yuvana Pitaka” in Ayurveda, which means boils affecting the youth. Disturbed “Kapha”, “Pitha” and “Rakhta” (blood) together produce boils, mostly on the face. As the Ayurvedic name suggests, these are present mostly in the age group of 15 – 25 years, and in some, may extend till 35 years of age. Some physicians believe that disturbed “meda” or fat dhathu is also involved in the production of acne."

The cause is dental infection. • Oral antral/nasal fistulas: these have multiple causes: - Tooth Extraction: The most encountered cause. Usually as a result of maxillary molars extraction. - Orofacial clefts: although this is relatively uncommon (approximately 1 case of orofacial cleft occurs in every 500-550 births), it is very serious because the size of the communication between the oral and nasal cavity is huge. -"

As far as my experience is concerned i have this disease for last two and half years. I have taken all kind of medicines right from Allopathy to Ayurvedic. Allopathy has no concrete solution to this problem. They treat the disease with steroids.

In 1991, concerns about the relative safety of these procedures arose after reports were published that described a possible association between CVS and birth defects in infants. Subsequent studies support the hypothesis that CVS can cause transverse limb deficiencies. Following CVS, rates of these defects, estimated to be 0.03%-0.10% (1/3,000-1/1,000), generally have been increased over background rates. Rates and severity of limb deficiencies are associated with the timing of CVS; most of the birth defects reported after procedures that were performed at greater than or equal to 70 days' gestation were limited to the fingers or toes. The risk for either digital or limb deficiency after CVS is only one of several important factors that must be considered in making complex and personal decisions about prenatal testing. For example, CVS is generally done earlier in pregnancy than amniocentesis and is particularly advantageous for detecting certain genetic conditions."

Amniocentesis (\"\"amnio\"\" for short) is the most accurate test available for detecting a variety of genetic disorders and birth defects such as Down syndrome, as well as neural tube defects. Amniocentesis is called a prenatal diagnostic test because it can tell you, with as much certainty as possible, whether your baby has a genetic disorder. It analyzes the genes from fetal cells that are found in amniotic fluid. Prenatal screening tests, including blood tests and ultrasound, can only tell you if your baby has a higher risk of a disorder. If you have positive results on screening tests, your doctor may recommend having amniocentesis or CVS, the other type of diagnostic test, so that you can know for sure. It’s helpful to remember that the vast majority of women have a normal result and a healthy baby. When is amniocentesis done?"

This screening process can help to determine the risk of the fetus having certain birth defects. Screening tests may be used alone or in combination with other tests. There are three parts of first trimester screening: Ultrasound test for fetal nuchal translucency (NT). Nuchal translucency screening uses an ultrasound test to examine the area at the back of the fetal neck for increased fluid or thickening. Two maternal serum (blood) tests. The blood tests measure two substances found in the blood of all pregnant women: Pregnancy-associated plasma protein screening (PAPP-A) --a protein produced by the placenta in early pregnancy. Abnormal levels are associated with an increased risk for chromosome abnormality. Human chorionic gonadotropin (h CG) --a hormone produced by the placenta in early pregnancy.

Genetic testing can reveal changes (mutations) in your genes that may cause illness or disease. Although genetic testing can provide important information for diagnosing, treating and preventing illness, there are limitations. For example, if you're a healthy person, a positive result from genetic testing doesn't always mean you will develop a disease. On the other hand, in some situations, a negative result doesn't guarantee that you won't have a certain disorder. Talking to your doctor, a medical geneticist or a genetic counselor about what you will do with the results is an important step in the process of genetic testing. Genome sequencing When genetic testing doesn't lead to a diagnosis but a genetic cause is still suspected, some facilities offer genome sequencing — a process for analyzing a sample of DNA taken from your blood. Everyone has a unique genome, made up of the DNA in all of a person's genes. This complex testing can help identify genetic variants that may relate to your health. This testing is usually limited to just looking at the protein-encoding parts of DNA called the exome."

"text": "There are many conversations had between an expectant mother and her prenatal care provider — for the most part, these are positive in nature and revolve around ensuring the health of both the patient and her unborn child. However, for every positive conversation, there is one a bit heavier in subject matter, one often discussed and debated amongst the medical community, between a woman and her partner, and doctor to patient — the screening and diagnosis of fetal genetic disorders and which course of action be followed. All parents want the best reassurance for their pregnancy and to protect their unborn to their greatest capability. What is imperative is that a woman understands her options concerning prenatal testing and the risks and benefits inherent in each. In most cases, a woman has elected for testing after discussion with her provider, secondary to a sonogram that presented concerns indicative of an issue, or when another factor, such as familial or maternal medical history is in play. While prenatal testing has been in practice for decades, Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing ( NIPT) is a relatively new offering on the landscape; unlike invasive procedures like amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling (CVS), NIPT carries no risk of miscarriage or harm to the unborn child. Through a blood sample taken from the mother, NIPT technology detects free-floating fetal DNA and analyzes it for a number of chromosomal conditions, such as Down syndrome. Still in its infancy, its use has mostly been promoted for women who are deemed “ high risk ,” examples of which include situations where the mother is 35 or older, a sonogram that reveals a fetal abnormality, genetic screening tests having presented concern, or in cases of prior pregnancies with a genetically-affected child. What seemingly differentiates NIPT recently from other prenatal tests is the PERCEIVED inference that it’s DIAGNOSTIC in nature, providing conclusive results equivalent to that of invasive procedures like CVS or amniocentesis, with just the ease of obtaining a vial of maternal blood. This in fact is not the case — NIPT is a SCREENING test being marketed as having approximately 99 percent accuracy in detecting genetic abnormalities equivalent to results gleaned from invasive diagnostic procedures."

Sixty-five to 70% of women have serum screening and /or ultrasound during pregnancy to evaluate the health and well-being of the developing fetus. The most common birth defects identified by screening include neural tube defects and chromosome abnormalities. Nurses employed in prenatal care settings need to have accurate information they can provide to women so they understand the benefits and limitations of screening.

Amniocentesis (also referred to as amnio, amniotic fluid test or AFT) is a prenatal testing procedure with significant accuracy. It involves collecting an amniotic fluid sample from the uterus and testing it in the laboratory for certain fetal abnormalities and genetic conditions. [ 1]Who should have amniocentesis? Women over 35 years old (babies born to older women are more at risk of developing genetic conditions like Down syndrome) [2]Women with a history of a neural tube defect (a condition affecting the brain and spinal cord) or any chromosomal condition in a previous pregnancy [13]Women with positive results from prenatal screening tests such as a blood test or noninvasive prenatal testing [3]Women who have a family history of any genetic condition like cystic fibrosis, sickle cell disease and Down syndrome [4]Why is amniocentesis performed? For detecting hereditary conditions like spina bifida [5], Down syndrome and fragile X syndrome For assessing the lung maturity of the baby if an early delivery is required due to some pregnancy complication For detecting intrauterine infections For finding out whether the baby has any life threatening conditions like Edward’s syndrome (Trisomy 18), Patau syndrome (Trisomy 13) and Tay-Sachs disease For assessing the health of the baby in case the mother has a blood sensitization, like Rh sensitization (a serious condition that occurs when the mother has a different blood type than the baby). But at present, obstetricians often use a Doppler ultrasound instead of AFT for detecting such conditions. For determining the gender of the baby [6]For decreasing the amniotic fluid volume within the uterus (rarely in cases of polyhydramnios)When is amniocentesis performed? AFT is usually performed during the second trimester, particularly between the 15th and 20th weeks of pregnancy [7]. It may also be performed during the later stages of pregnancy (third trimester), especially before a pre-term delivery or a c-section birth. Guidelines to prepare for amniocentesis Drinking lots of water may be recommended prior to the ultrasound as a full bladder helps to produce better results One may be advised not use Aspirin pills for five days before the amnio procedure [8]One may be asked to avoid heparin and Lovanox for 24 hours before the procedure What is the procedure of amniocentesis?"

Purpose Genetic counselors work with people concerned about the risk of an inherited disease. Thecounselor does not prevent the incidence of a disease in a family, but can help family membersassess the risk for certain hereditary diseases and offer guidance. Many couples seek geneticcounseling because there is a family history of known genetic disorders, infertility, miscarriage,still births, or early infant mortality. Other reasons for participating in genetic counseling may be theinfluences of a job or lifestyle that exposes a potential parent to health risks such as radiation,chemicals, or drugs.

Women with Alport syndrome may think that they are only carriers of a mutation and have no need for regular monitoring. The fact is that over 95% of women with Alport syndrome have blood in the urine, so they have the disease. Although the risk of kidney failure is much lower in women with Alport syndrome compared to men, there is a significant risk. About 20-30% of women with the X-linked form of Alport syndrome reach end-stage kidney disease by the age of 60. Women with Alport syndrome can also develop deafness. ”The diagnosis of Alport syndrome is performed using some or all of these methods: Medical history and physical examination (urinalysis, blood testing)Detailed family history and possibly urinalyses on first- and second-degree relatives Hearing and vision evaluation and testing Renal (kidney) ultrasound Kidney biopsy analysis Skin biopsy analysis Genetic testing.

American practices of acupuncture incorporate medical traditions from China, Japan, Korea, and other countries. Acupuncture can be traced back to the stone age. One of the oldest book with writings on acupuncture dates back to the Han Dynasty (206 B. C.- 220 A. D.). This book explains how sharp instruments (like stone needles) were used to treat pain and diseases. Today well over 50 countries use acupuncture to treat disease and its popularity is continuing to grow In the past decade, Eastern Medicine has shown a renewed interest in acupuncture. With more than 10,000 articles on acupuncture found on the Library of Medicine's website, the documented benefits of acupuncture include: reduction of pain, improvement in fatigue, improvement in fibromyalgia, headaches, and nausea, successful treatment of obesity, reduced pain and improved function in arthritis, and successful treatment of infertility."

Ionic therapy is loosely linked to the work of Royal Raymond Rife, an American inventor considered to have discovered bioelectric medicine. His theory said that viruses will be destroyed if they are introduced to the right balance of resonating frequency, similar to a glass being destroyed by the high pitch of a soprano. Fast forward to the 21st century, and Dr. Mary Staggs applies this theory and others to create the first commercial ionic footbath in 2001. I decided to try it out for myself with Pacific College Alumna and Oncology Specialist Christine Adamo, LAc, and see for myself what the scoop is all about. Christine is a supporter of “true” ionic detoxes and uses them in her practice, particularly with her cancer patients to help with the side effects of chemotherapy."

Coincident with the equilibrium theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine, many studies have demonstrated that acupuncture treatments contribute to the maintenance of the balance of biological chemicals such as serotonin, endorphin, dopamine, cortisol, and many other hormones in the central nervous system. Endocrine glands secrete hormones directly into the lymph and the bloodstream. The endocrine system is an orchestra that requires all of its players to be fully engaged. The quick alleviation of symptoms of various diseases by acupuncture is partially fulfilled via the simultaneous improvement of the functions of endocrine glands, such as adrenal gland, provided that there is no structural abnormality in the endocrine system. The following is a brief summary of some scientific evidence that acupuncture can optimize adrenal gland function.1. Anti-inflammatory function of adrenal gland RX Zheng published a paper in the Journal of Alternative Complement Medicine regarding acupuncture’s effect on adrenal gland function. Electroacupuncture at 10 Hz significantly reduced chemically induced hind paw edema in rats."

In antiquity, independently of Greek philosophers and other civilizations, ancient Chinese philosophers made significant advances in science, technology, mathematics, and astronomy.

Among the earliest inventions were the abacus, the \"\"shadow clock,\"\" and the first flying machines such as kites and Kongming lanterns. The four Great Inventions of ancient China: the compass, gunpowder, papermaking, and printing, were among the most important technological advances, only known in Europe by the end of the Middle Ages. The Tang Dynasty (AD 618 - 906) in particular, was a time of great innovation. A good deal of exchange occurred between Western and Chinese discoveries up to the Qing Dynasty. The Jesuit China missions of the 16th and 17th centuries introduced Western science and astronomy, then undergoing its own revolution, to China, and knowledge of Chinese technology was brought to Europe.

"text": "The eye is the special sensory organ which in Chinese Medicine is directly connected to the liver. The eyes require nourishment from the liver in order to see properly- if the liver is unable to do its job properly there can be blurred vision, floaters, colour blindness, dryness, soreness, itchiness, and other eye disorders. If problems continue uncorrected over time, they can develop into cataracts, or a clouding of the lens of the eye. Symptoms of cataracts include clouded, blurred, or dim vision, loss of night vision, sensitivity to light and glare, halos around lights, fading or yellowing of colours, double vision in one eye, a need for brighter light when reading or doing other activities, and frequent changes in eye prescriptions. Eye surgery is now a very standard and safe procedure for cataract removal, however acupuncture is a gentle and safe treatment option that can offer help to cataracts and eye disorders, especially in the early stages. From a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective, cataracts most often are a result of one of three constitutional patterns. Although a cataract may not have developed, these patterns can eventually lead to cataracts of the eyes. An acupuncturist determines the underlying pattern according to the symptoms that the individual is experiencing. The first pattern of cataracts develops from a weakness in the liver and kidneys. The liver relies on the kidneys for nourishment, and if the liver is healthy, the eyes will have good quality and clarity of the vision, whereas if the kidneys and liver are weak, vision will be unclear."

A healthy body is our natural state and any illness or health issue is attributed to something in the body being out of balance. Chinese medicine strives to bring each patient back into balance in order to achieve health. High blood pressure can be deadly if not managed, but a more positive outlook is that high blood pressure is a warning sign that something in a person’s lifestyle needs to change. In a recent Morbidity and Mortality Report from the Center for Disease Control (CDC), it’s cited that nearly 1 in 3 Americans suffer from high blood pressure—and more than half don’t have it under control. Perhaps what’s more surprising is that most people with uncontrolled blood pressure are aware of it but their status remains the same. The CDC reported that the majority of people who were studied with high blood pressure (HBP) had actually seen their doctor twice over the past year, yet their condition remained unmanaged. High blood pressure is defined as a reading of 140/90 mm Hg or higher. A healthy blood pressure reading is usually somewhere around 120/80 mm Hg."

It has long been utilized in the Chinese culture to treat the complex of symptoms that Western medicine terms diabetes mellitus. This article will outline the key concepts and therapies of TCM that play a role in the evaluation and treatment of diabetic patients. Diabetes is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases in the United States. The morbidity and mortality associated with the disease is significant and derives primarily from complications of persistent hyperglycemia. Longstanding hyperglycemia has been shown to lead to vascular complications involving large and small blood vessels, such as arteriosclerosis, glomerulosclerosis, and retinopathy. Diabetic neuropathy, characterized by pain and paresthesias, is among the most frequent complications of longstanding, poorly controlled diabetes and is often associated with a reduction in physical activity and with sleep disturbances. 1, 2Western or conventional therapies for diabetes have been geared toward regulating blood glucose with a combination of diet modification, insulin and/or oral pharmacological agents, weight loss when appropriate, and exercise. Although Western medicine and Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) share the diabetes treatment goals of reducing symptoms and preventing complications, their approaches to conceptualizing, diagnosing, and treating the disease are very different. This article will outline the key concepts and therapies of TCM that play a role in the evaluation and treatment of diabetic patients."

If you’re someone with gastroparesis and have been told you’ll need to simply deal with bouts that come and go, Ayurveda, naturopathy, acupuncture, and yoga can offer some respite. Gastroparesis is an uncomfortable disorder that occurs when your stomach muscles malfunction, causing symptoms ranging from nausea and pain to malnutrition and even fluctuating sugar levels. Common among diabetics, this is a disorder that is hugely influenced by what you eat and drink. Which is why natural remedies become especially important if you have the condition. What Causes Gastroparesis? According to medical experts, gastroparesis usually occurs as a result of vagus nerve damage brought on by glucose levels that are constantly very high."

"text": "About stroke Stroke is defined as a neurological deficit of sudden onset which results from cerebrovascular disease and persists for longer than 24 hours (DTB 1998). Stroke is very common, with, for example, around 110,000 people each year in England alone experiencing a first or recurrent episode (DH 2007). Consequences of stroke can include disability and early death, and the condition costs the UK economy around £7billion annually (NICE 2008). Around 80% of first strokes are ischaemic (i.e. due to the thromboembolic or thrombotic occlusion of an intracranial artery) (NINDS 1995). Primary haemorrhage (haemorrhagic stroke) and subarachnoid haemorrhage account for a further 10% and 5% of strokes, respectively (DTB 1998). Overall, about 10% of patients die within a month of a first ischaemic stroke, and by 6 months, up to around 20% are dead and 30% or more are dependent on others in day-to-day activities (Warlow 2008). Of patients who have a stroke, those aged 80 years or over are more likely to die or be disabled as a result than are younger patients (Poppe 2008). Patients with very mild strokes or rapidly improving symptoms usually have a good prognosis, while patients with major strokes have a very poor prognosis (Rajajee 2006; Adams 2003). Following treatment of acute stroke, patients are advised of lifestyle changes that can help to prevent a further vascular event. These include smoking cessation, weight reduction for those who are overweight, reducing dietary salt intake, taking regular exercise and avoiding excess alcohol."

By Ming Qing Zhu, LAc, OMD (China) and Moyee Siu, LAc, MTCMThe World Health Organization estimates that 15 million individuals suffer from stroke annually worldwide, most of whom live in developed countries, where hypertension, hypercholesterolemia and cardiac diseases are prevalent. Stroke is the third leading cause of fatality and ranks highest as a cause of disability. 1Western medicine has made some advances in the treatment of strokes, including the use of Tissue Plasminogen Activator (t PA) and intracranial angioplasty. However, these procedures are not indicated for or accessible to all stroke patients. Despite receiving t PA in the recommended window, 58% of patients still die or end up with severe disabilities. 2Typical post-stroke care in the USA starts with seven days of hospital stay followed by one to two weeks of physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy in a rehabilitation facility. After three or more weeks of outpatient rehabilitation, the treatment comes to an end, but the patient’s recovery is far from complete. In one study 3 on ischemic stroke survivors who were at least 65 years of age, the following disabilities were observed six months after stroke:50% had some hemiparesis30% were unable to walk without some assistance26% were dependent in activities of daily living19% had aphasia26% were institutionalized in a nursing home Obviously, there is a lot of room for improvement in standard stroke protocol.

Auriculotherapists believe that healing processes can be promoted by working with these points on the ear, because the ear contains many blood vessels and nerve endings that, when stimulated, influence the organs and bodily functions. Origins Acupuncture is one of the world's oldest therapeutic techniques, having its roots in ancient China. Some of the oldest texts of Chinese medicine mention acupuncture points and massage techniques specifically for the ear. For eye problems, silver or gold earrings were sometimes prescribed in ancient times to provide constant healing stimulation at points on the ear, a practice that is still performed in some areas of the world, including parts of Europe. The ancient Egyptians and Greeks believed that working with the ears could influence health. Hippocrates, the Greek father of medicine, mentioned a point on the ear that could be operated on as a birth control measure in men. In Europe in the Middle Ages, doctors prescribed surgery on a particular spot on the ear for a condition called sciatica, which causes nerve pain in the hips and thighs. In modern times, auriculotherapy has been advanced by Paul Nogier of France. Beginning his work and experiments in the 1950s, Nogier laid out an intricate map of points on the ear that correspond to the organs and processes in the body."

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a healing system of Eastern medicine developed in China more than 2,000 years ago, incorporating therapies that are in some cases millennia older. One of its guiding principles is to “dispel evil and support the good.” In addition to treating illness, TCM focuses on strengthening the body’s defenses and enhancing its capacity for healing and to maintain health. Traditional Chinese Medicine encompasses how the human body interacts with all aspects of life and the environment, including the seasons, weather, time of day, our diet and emotional states. It sees the key to health as the harmonious and balanced functioning of body, mind and spirit, and holds that the balance of health depends on the unobstructed flow of qi (pronounced chee) or “life energy” through the body, along pathways known as meridians. Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners see disease as the result of disruptions in the circulation of qi. Ascribing the healing abilities of TCM to modifying the flow of qi is problematic for many Western scientists and physicians, because qi itself – if it exists – cannot be directly measured, or even detected, through any known means. This has led some in the West to ascribe TCM’s successes to a biochemical mechanism, such as stimulating endorphin production via acupuncture needles to reduce pain. Several studies have shown that insertion of the needles does indeed stimulate endorphin release in the tissues."

In the United States, people use TCM primarily as a complementary health approach. This fact sheet provides a general overview of TCM and suggests sources for additional information. Key Points Is It Safe? Acupuncture is generally considered safe when performed by an experienced practitioner using sterile needles. Improperly performed acupuncture can cause potentially serious side effects. Tai chi and qi gong, two mind and body practices used in TCM, are generally safe. There have been reports of Chinese herbal products being contaminated with drugs, toxins, or heavy metals or not containing the listed ingredients.

If you need to know how this holiday is celebrated, then all you have to do is read it in its title. That’s because the two main components of this holiday is for women to provide steaks and blow jobs to their men. Pretty simple, huh? When is Steak and BJ Day? This year (2018) March 14 (Wednesday)Next year (2019) March 14 (Thursday)Last year (2017) March 14 (Tuesday)However, Since it falls on the same day a PI Day – the day dedicated to the mathematical value of π and is celebrated with the pun of eating pie – guys should be careful not to fill up on too much pie, if they plan on celebrating this day as well. History No one really knows who started this holiday. However, the generally accepted consensus is that it was invented in 2002 by Tom Birdsey, a radio DJ who invented the day while on air. If that is the case, then this holiday really spread far and wide thanks to word of mouth. First, it spread across the North American Continent and then it spread all over Europe."

"text": "\"Family & Relationships Singles & Dating How do u eat out a girl?my girlfriend really wants me to and idk really the whole like exactly what to do Follow Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: 1- Start slow Kiss your way down her body and tease her thighs and buttocks for a while before you make contact with any part of her genitalia. This will turn her on before you start the real action. Get close so that she thinks you're going to zero in on her at any second, but don't give in immediately. 2- Warm her up Before you remove her underwear, breathe hot air through it against her genital area. Breathe softly but warmly for short bursts at a time. You can alternate between doing this and kissing her thighs and stomach. 3- Don't dive in When you begin to kiss and lick her vulva, work your way in slowly from the outside. Start by licking the outer edges of the outer lips (labia), then very slowly spread them, and lick and kiss the inner lips, and around the vagina. Do this gently, as though you were still teasing her. You'll work your way up to more intense action eventually."

Here’s how some of the most famous ones developed — and a few new ones Melissa Mohr05.11.2013 • 5:30 AMExcerpted from “Holy Sh*t: A Brief History of Swearing”The 18th and 19th centuries’ embrace of linguistic delicacy and extreme avoidance of taboo bestowed great power on those words that broached taboo topics directly, freely revealing what middle-class society was trying so desperately to conceal. Under these conditions of repression, obscene words finally came fully into their own. They began to be used in nonliteral ways, and so became not just words that shocked and offended but words with which people could swear. The definitive expletive of the 18th century was bloody, which is still in frequent use in Britain today, and is so common Down Under that it is known as “the great Australian adjective.” Bloody was not quite an obscenity and not quite an oath, but it was definitely a bad word that shocked and offended the ears of polite society. It is often supposed to be a corruption of the old oaths by our lady or God’s blood (minced form: ’ sblood ), but this is another urban legend that turns out to be false. Either it derives instead from the adjective bloody as in “covered in blood” or, as the OED proposes, it referred to the habits of aristocratic rabble-rousers at the end of the 17th century, who styled themselves “bloods.” “ Bloody drunk,” then, would mean “as drunk as a blood. ”The career of bloody is interesting, because one can clearly see either its perjoration (becoming a worse and worse word) or the rise of civility in action — or perhaps both."

"text": "Myths persist about how HIV is transmitted. It’s important to get the facts about how HIV is passed from one person to another. How Is HIV Transmitted? You can get or transmit HIV only through specific activities. Most commonly, people get or transmit HIV through sexual behaviors and needle or syringe use. Only certain body fluids—blood, semen, pre-seminal fluid, rectal fluids, vaginal fluids, and breast milk—from a person who has HIV can transmit HIV. These fluids must come in contact with a mucous membrane or damaged tissue or be directly injected into the bloodstream (from a needle or syringe) for transmission to occur. Mucous membranes are found inside the rectum, vagina, penis, and mouth. In the United States, HIV is spread mainly by Having anal or vaginal sex with someone who has HIV without using a condom or taking medicines to prevent or treat HIV. For the HIV-negative partner, receptive anal sex (bottoming) is the highest-risk sexual behavior, but you can also get HIV from insertive anal sex (topping)."

A love scene sculpture from the Sunga period (ca. 1st century BCE). A sex position is a position of the body that an individual or couple people may use for sexual intercourse or other sexual activities. Sexual acts are generally described by the positions the participants adopt in order to perform those acts. Though sexual intercourse generally involves penetration of the body of one person by another, sex positions commonly involve penetrative or non-penetrative sexual activities. Three categories of sexual intercourse are commonly practiced: vaginal intercourse (involving vaginal penetration), anal penetration, and oral sex (especially mouth-on-genital stimulation). [ 1] Sex acts may also involve other forms of genital stimulation, such as solo or mutual masturbation, which may involve rubbing or penetration by the use of fingers or hands or by a device ( sex toy ), such as a dildo or vibrator. The act may also involve anilingus. There are numerous sex positions that participants may adopt in any of these types of sexual intercourse or acts; some authors have argued that the number of sex positions is essentially limitless."

"text": "\"by Heather Corinna Share |It might sound dumb but, what exactly is oral sex? - Flame, 15Oral sex is a term we usually use to describe any sexual genital (to the vulva, penis or anus) stimulation (touch) via someone's mouth, lips, throat and/or tongue (and often combined with use of the hands, too). Cunnilingus is the big word for oral sex when a vulva is involved, and fellatio, for oral sex with a penis. Analingus is a term used to describe oral- anal sex for anyone. Fellatio is sometimes called: a blow job, giving/getting head, sucking off, gobbing the knob, giving/getting a hummer, sucking the root, and many more terms even I probably don't know. Cunnilingus is also colloquially called eating out, going down on, carpet munching, rug munching, muff diving, and again, other new slang you may know about better than I. Many people engage in oral sex (and so do some animals), and plenty find it to be a favorite sexual activity. So long as you engage in it responsibly, and it's what you want, it's as normal, healthy, safe and natural as any other kind of sex, even though for a long time in many cultures, it was considered taboo, much like anal intercourse or homosexuality often still is among certain cultures and groups. As well, oral sex isn't a secret sect with mysterious practices people can't figure out on their own,: you're not going to hear about \"\"Oral Sex Secrets That'll Drive Your Partner Wild!\"\" here. That stuff is for people who want to sell you something, and is usually based on things that someone discovered their partner likes through trial and error, something everyone can do with their own partners.

Depiction of anilingus Anilingus (from the Latin anus + -lingus, from lingere, \"\"to lick\"\", variantly spelled \"\" analingus \"\", [1] [2]) is the oral and anal sex act in which a person stimulates the anus of another by using the mouth, including lips, tongue, or teeth. It is also called anal–oral contact and anal–oral sex; colloquial names include rimming and rim job. It may be performed by and on persons of any sexual orientation for pleasure or as a form of erotic humiliation.

[ 3]Practice [ edit]General [ edit]Pleasure for the giver during anilingus is usually based more on the principle of the act. [ 4] [5] The anus has a relatively high concentration of nerve endings and can be an erogenous zone, and the receiver may receive pleasure from external anal stimulation. The person receiving anilingus is regarded as the passive partner in the act, and the person performing anilingus is the active partner. People may engage in anilingus for its own sake, before anal fingering or penetration, or as part of foreplay. Studies indicate that anilingus is a rare sexual practice between women. ["

Humans sometimes engage in behaviors that do not include the penetration of sexual organs, such as oral intercourse or anal intercourse or by non-sexual organs ( fingering, fisting ). These behaviors are sometimes included in the definition of sexual intercourse. [ 2]Two animals coming together for the purposes of sexual reproduction is called mating.

The name of the practice, when it is done in a repeated in-and-out motion, is derived from its passing resemblance to the dipping of a tea bag into a cup of hot water as a method of brewing tea. As a form of non-penetrative sex, it can be done for its own enjoyment or as foreplay. The practice may also be performed during sexual assault. This practice was made popular in the 90s video game Counter-Strike, in which one player would repeatedly crouch over the opponent's dead body. Oral sex [ edit]Along with the penis, the scrotum is sensitive and considered to be an erogenous zone. This makes varying degrees of stimulation an integral part of oral sex for many men. [ 1] [2] And while some men may enjoy the stimulation, not every man responds to it. [ 3] Sex experts have praised various techniques that the performer can use during fellatio to increase their partner's pleasure. These include gently sucking and tugging on the scrotum and use of lips to ensure minimal contact with their teeth. ["

Oral cancers are sometimes called head and neck cancers, and include cancers of the mouth, lip and tongue, as well as cancers of the tonsils, oesophagus, larynx (voice box), nasopharynx (the area that connects the nose and throat) and the thyroid gland. What causes oral cancer? Experts have known for years that the main risk factors for oral cancer are drinking alcohol and smoking or chewing tobacco. But there is growing evidence that infection in the mouth with HPV is a major cause of oral cancer. Around 25% of mouth and 35% of throat cancers are HPV-related, but the exact figures vary between different studies, possibly due to different ways of testing for the virus, or varying levels of smoking and other risk factors. Detecting the HPV virus in a sample of people who have oral cancer does not mean that HPV caused the cancer. The virus becomes part of the genetic material of the cancer cells, triggering them to grow. How do you get HPV in the mouth? There are more than 100 types of HPV, and around 15 are associated with cancers."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Bloodborne disease Classification and external resources ICD - 10 Z77.21ICD - 9-CM V01.79 [ edit on Wikidata]A bloodborne disease is a disease that can be spread through contamination by blood and other body fluids. Bloodborne pathogens are microorganisms such as viruses or bacteria. The most common examples are HIV, hepatitis B and viral hemorrhagic fevers. Diseases that are not usually transmitted directly by blood contact, but rather by insect or other vector, are more usefully classified as vector-borne disease, even though the causative agent can be found in blood. Vector-borne diseases include West Nile virus and malaria. Many bloodborne diseases can also be contracted by other means, including high-risk sexual behavior or intravenous drug use. These diseases have also been identified in sports medicine. [ 1]Since it is difficult to determine what pathogens any given sample of blood contains, and some bloodborne diseases are lethal, standard medical practice regards all blood (and any body fluid) as potentially infectious. Blood and Body Fluid precautions are a type of infection control practice that seeks to minimize this sort of disease transmission.

This Exposure Control Plan is a further indication of this commitment. Purpose The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) promulgated a new standard on December 6, 1991, entitled \"\"Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens\"\". ( See Appendix A.) The purpose of this regulation is to limit occupational exposure to blood and other potentially-infectious materials, since any exposure could result in transmission of bloodborne pathogens which could lead to disease or death. Back to Contents Scope OSHAs Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens standard covers all employees who could be \"\"reasonably anticipated\"\", as the result of performing their job duties, to have contact with blood and other potentially infectious materials. OSHA has not attempted to list all occupations where exposure could occur. It leaves this task to the employer. \"\" Good Samaritan\"\" acts, such as assisting a coworker with a nosebleed, would not be considered occupational exposure. Back to Contents Infectious Material Defined: Infectious material includes: human blood, human blood components, products made from human blood, semen, vaginal secretions, cerebrospinal fluid, synovial fluid, amniotic fluid, saliva in dental procedures, body fluid visibly contaminated with blood, and all body fluids in situations where it is difficult or impossible to differentiate between body fluids. They also include any unfixed tissue or organ other than intact skin from a human (living or dead), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-containing cells or tissue cultures, organ cultures, HIV or Hepatitis B (HBV)-containing culture medium or other solutions, as well as blood, organs or other tissues from experimental animals infected with HIV or HBV."

All occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials (OPIM) place workers at risk for infection with bloodborne pathogens. OSHA defines blood to mean human blood, human blood components, and products made from human blood. Other potentially infectious materials (OPIM) means: The following human body fluids: semen, vaginal secretions, cerebrospinal fluid, synovial fluid, pleural fluid, pericardial fluid, peritoneal fluid, amniotic fluid, saliva in dental procedures, any body fluid that is visibly contaminated with blood, and all body fluids in situations where it is difficult or impossible to differentiate between body fluids;Any unfixed tissue or organ (other than intact skin) from a human (living or dead);HIV-containing cell or tissue cultures, organ cultures, and HIV- or HBV-containing culture medium or other solutions; and blood, organs, or other tissues from experimental animals infected with HIV or HBV. The following references aid in recognizing workplace hazards associated with bloodborne pathogens. The Bloodborne Pathogen Standard is located in 29CFR1910.1030 . Types of Bloodborne Pathogens This training will focus on the three most common bloodborne pathogens in the United States. These pathogens are HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C. Bloodborne pathogens are transmitted when contaminated blood or body fluids enter the body of another person. In the workplace setting, transmission is most likely to occur through: An accidental puncture by a sharp object, such as a needle, broken glass, or other \"\"sharps\"\" contaminated with the pathogen. Contact between broken or damaged skin and infected body fluids Contact between mucous membranes and infected body fluids*Some laboratories may have different types of bloodborne pathogens that you may be exposed."

"text": "Clinical Interventions > Hand Hygiene PPEs Role in Standard and Contact Precautions Feb 01, 2007“To protect and serve” is the mission statement most often associated with police departments, and it is a mandate also followed by healthcare workers (HCWs) as they uphold patient safety by observing the myriad precautions necessary to decrease the risks of disease transmission. STANDARD AND CONTACT PRECAUTIONSMicroorganisms are transmitted by countless routes.¹ The five main routes of transmission are contact, droplet, airborne, common vehicle, and vectorborne. Contact transmission is the more frequent mode of transmission of healthcare-acquired infections (HAIs), and it is divided into two subgroups: direct-contact transmission and indirect-contact transmission. According to the Hospital Infection Control Practices Advisory Committee (HICPAC)’s “Guideline for isolation precautions in hospitals,” standard precautions reflect the major features of universal precautions (UP).³ UP, which were designed to reduce the risk of transmission of bloodborne pathogens and other infectious agents, applies basic precautions and steps to take when caring for patients. These precautions should be in place at all times for all patients receiving care in hospitals — regardless of their diagnosis or presumed infection status. Standard precautions are the basic level of infection prevention and control that should be used in the care of all patients all of the time.² Standard precautions apply to: Blood All body fluids, secretions, and excretions (except sweat) regardless of whether or not they contain visible blood Non-intact skin Mucous membranes Personal protective equipment (PPE) is a key asset to carrying out standard precautions. PPE includes: gowns, masks, eye protection, and/or a face shield for high splash areas such as the operating room (OR) or a trauma area. Standard precautions include varying aspects of protective measures. Some examples include:³Hand hygiene: following any patient contact. Gloves: Clean, non-sterile gloves when touching or coming into contact with blood, body fluids, secretions or excretions."

Ethical dilemmas in the health care setting occur daily. Perioperative nurse managers need to consider basic ethical Principles when resolving these dilemmas, and they must keep in mind that solutions need to serve the best interests of all people involved in given situations. This article discusses criteria by which a nurse can refuse a patient care assignment and those by which a nurse manager can require that a nurse perform a patient care assignment. AORN J 62 (Sept 1995) 412–418. Previous article Next article Morals relate to what is right and wrong in conduct, character, or attitudes. 1 Ethics is a set of moral principles or values that guides behavior. A code of clinical ethics delineates the primary goals and values of a profession and can help nurses and other health care workers identify, analyze, and resolve ethical issues in clinical settings. One code of ethics designed specifically for perioperative nurses is the “ANA code for nurses with interpretive statements—explications for perioperative nursing.” 2 This code provides a framework within which perioperative nurses can make ethical decisions, and it provides examples of behaviors that reflect ethical obligations of perioperative nurses."

Yes. The construction industry (Standard Industrial Classification Codes [SIC] 152-179) is specifically exempted from coverage under 5193 , as stated in the Exception to 5193 (a) . However, construction industry employers still have a regulatory responsibility to protect their employees from bloodborne pathogens. What responsibilities do employers in the construction industry have under Title 8 standards other than 5193 to protect employees from exposure to bloodborne pathogens? Employees in the construction industry are not necessarily free of potential hazards related to bloodborne pathogens. For example, employees assigned to first aid duties may encounter such hazards. Employers in the construction industry are subject to the Injury and Illness Prevention (IIP) Program requirements of 8 CCR 3203, and to the requirement to provide hygiene facilities and personal protective equipment pursuant to Title 8 sections other than 5193. Pursuant to these other regulatory requirements, construction employers are required to provide appropriate protective measures to employees who may be subject to the hazard of exposure to bloodborne pathogens.

In August 1987, CDC published a document entitled \"\"Recommendations for Prevention of HIV Transmission in Health-Care Settings\"\" (1). In contrast to the 1983 document, the 1987 document recommended that blood and body fluid precautions be consistently used for all patients regardless of their bloodborne infection status. This extension of blood and body fluid precautions to all patients is referred to as \"\"Universal Blood and Body Fluid Precautions\"\" or \"\"Universal Precautions.\"\" Under universal precautions, blood and certain body fluids of all patients are considered potentially infectious for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), and other bloodborne pathogens."

Viruses get a bad rap, but they also perform many important functions for humans, plants, animals, and the environment. For example, some viruses protect the host against other infections. Viruses also participate in the process of evolution by transferring genes among different species. In biomedical research, scientists use viruses to insert new genes into cells.

"text": "DEFINITIONS (Technical meaning of terms used in the text)1. Carrier —A person or animal that harbors a specific infectious agent without discernible clinical disease and serves as a potential source of infection. The carrier state may exist in an individual with an infection that is inapparent throughout its course (commonly known as healthy or asymptomatic carrier), or during the incubation period, convalescence and postconvalescence of an individual with a clinically recognizable disease (commonly known as an incubatory or convalescent carrier). Under either circumstance the carrier state may be of short or long duration (temporary or transient carrier, or chronic carrier).2. Case-fatality rate —Usually expressed as the percentage of persons diagnosed as having a specified disease who die as a result of that illness within a given period. This term is most frequently applied to a specific outbreak of acute disease in which all patients have been followed for an adequate period of time to include all attributable deaths. The case-fatality rate must be clearly differentiated from the mortality rate (q.v.). ( Synonyms: fatality rate, fatality percent-age, case-fatality ratio)3. Chemoprophylaxis —The administration of a chemical, including antibiotics, to prevent the development of an infection or the progression of an infection to active manifest disease, or to eliminate the carriage of a specific infectious agent to prevent transmission and disease in others. Chemotherapy, on the other hand, refers to use of a chemical to treat a clinically manifest disease or to limit its further progress.4."

When a child gets a bloody nose or someone stubs their toe on the diving board you might be asked to clean it up. After all, we don’t want the general public to be exposed to bloodborne pathogens. It is important to remember two things whenever you’re asked to clean up blood: Always assume the blood is infected with a dangerous disease like HIV, Hepatitis B or C. Have the right cleanup equipment and use it properly. Bloodborne Pathogen Cleanup Supplies Checklist Bodily fluid spills may require some specialized equipment depending on their location within the facility, the size of the spill and the type of spill, but most can be cleaned safely using the equipment recommended in OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogen Cleanup Kit. Disposable gloves Absorbent materials (e.g., kitty litter, sand, etc. ) Disinfecting towelettes Biohazard bag with zip tie Scoop Protective cap Eye protection Protective gown Mask How to Clean Up Blood in Different Types of Conditions Blood isn’t always going to cooperate. Sometimes it won’t be easy to simply block off an area and follow general blood cleanup guidelines. Read through the following descriptions to ensure you’re prepared for any blood cleanup experience. Blood Spills on Non-Carpeted Floors A hard, non-carpeted surface is the most common setting for blood spills."

"text": "\"Clinical Interventions > Personal Protective Equipment The Basics of Surgical Mask Selection Feb 28, 2003The Basics of Surgical Mask Selection By Dianne Rawson, RN, MAThe issue of infection control in the hospital is an everyday concern for all members of the healthcare team and patients. In the surgical setting, surgeons, anesthetists, nurses, and infection control practitioners have informed opinions and subjective beliefs about causes and prevention of infection. What should be done to eliminate or at least reduce the causative agents of infection is a concern for all. Historically, surgical attire and the ritual of gloving, gowning and donning of masks date back to the 1860s. It is known that live microorganisms are shed from the hair, exposed skin and mucus membranes. Based on studies done in Great Britain by Tuneval, it was concluded that the use of surgical masks during operations does not influence the number of potential pathogenic bacteria in the air close to the operative site and questioned the value of using surgical masks. 1 Although there is no evidence to suggest that masks are not necessary to decrease wound infections, the use of surgical masks in protecting the surgical team from contaminated contacts is an important principle to consider. The protection of the health care professional, as well as the patient, has more recently become an issue of infection control and is becoming more complex. Some of the issues related to the real need to wear a surgical mask in the operating room (OR) are controlled by regulatory requirements. 2Regulations In the United States, standards and guidelines have been set by governing bodies such as: ANSI."

The most common type is called primary (or focal) hyperhidrosis and it has no known cause, although it seems to run in families. You may have a different type of excessive sweating called secondary (or generalized) hyperhidrosis. This means that your symptoms may be due to an underlying medical condition or disease (e.g., nerve damage or a hormone disorder), or due to a side effect of a medication you are taking.

"text": "\"Section 10: Chain of Infection As described above, the traditional epidemiologic triad model holds that infectious diseases result from the interaction of agent, host, and environment. More specifically, transmission occurs when the agent leaves its reservoir or host through a portal of exit, is conveyed by some mode of transmission, and enters through an appropriate portal of entry to infect a susceptible host. This sequence is sometimes called the chain of infection. Figure 1.19 Chain of Infection Image Description Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Principles of epidemiology, 2nd ed. Atlanta: U. S. Department of Health and Human Services;1992. Reservoir The reservoir of an infectious agent is the habitat in which the agent normally lives, grows, and multiplies. Reservoirs include humans, animals, and the environment. The reservoir may or may not be the source from which an agent is transferred to a host. For example, the reservoir of Clostridium botulinum is soil, but the source of most botulism infections is improperly canned food containing C. botulinum spores."

The carpal tunnel is a space in the wrist surrounded by wrist bones and by a rigid ligament that links the bones together (see Figure 1). Figure 1 - The Carpal Tunnel Through this small tunnel pass the flexing tendons of the fingers and thumb as well as the median nerve (see Figure 2). These tendons attach muscles to bones in the hand and transfer the movement of the fingers from muscles to bones. The median nerve carries signals from the brain to control the actions of the fingers and hand. It also carries information about temperature, pain and touch from the hand to the brain, and controls the sweating of the hand. The thumb, index, middle and ring fingers are under the control of the median nerve (see Figure 2). Figure 2 - The Carpal Tunnel with Tendon and Median Nerve In the carpal tunnel, the tendons of the fingers surround the median nerve. Swelling of the tendons reduces the space in the tunnel and squeezes the median nerve which is softer than the tendons."

"text": "Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Fast Facts Carpal tunnel syndrome may interfere with hand strength and sensation, and cause a decrease in hand function. Other conditions, such as arthritis, tendonitis and other nerve involvement, need to be ruled out before diagnosing carpal tunnel syndrome. Physicians can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome by history of the symptoms, physical examination and electrical testing, and in some cases by use of ultrasound or MRI. Carpal tunnel syndrome can be treated effectively with medications, splinting, and steroid injections in the wrist and/or surgery. Carpal tunnel syndrome is possibly the most common nerve disorder experienced today. It affects 4 – 10 million Americans and is usually very treatable. Middle-aged to older individuals are more likely to develop the syndrome than younger persons, and females three times more frequently than males. Carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms range from mild occasional numbness in the fingers to hand weakness, loss of feeling and loss of hand function. Because of widespread familiarity, people often attribute any discomfort or pain in the hand or wrist to carpal tunnel syndrome. However, there are many other conditions which can cause similar complaints, so it is important to know the difference."

"text": "Surgery Home Patient Care Nerve Injuries Thoracic Outlet Syndrome The term “thoracic outlet syndrome” is used to describe a condition involving compression of the nerves and/or blood vessels in the region around the neck and collarbone, called the thoracic outlet. Thoracic outlet syndrome is controversial in the medical literature. The diagnosis and treatment of patients who have thoracic outlet syndrome have been varied, particularly in those with complaints of tingling, numbness and pain in the arm and hand. Recently, surgeons have recognized that patients with thoracic outlet syndrome can be divided into patients with compression of the blood vessels (subclavian vein and artery) and those with nerve compression (brachial plexus). Symptoms related to nerve compression are more common than those involving compression of the blood vessels. However, most of the controversy surrounds patients with compression of the brachial plexus. Symptoms Patients with thoracic outlet syndrome (compression of the brachial plexus) usually complain of a feeling of “pins and needles” and/or numbness in the arm, forearm or hand. Many patients also have complaints of pain and aching in the shoulder neck or shoulder blade region. These symptoms usually are made worse with activities that require the arms positioned overhead. For women, common activities that aggravate the condition include applying makeup or styling their hair."

How does the carpal tunnel decrease in size? The thenar eminence, hypothenar eminence and palmaris longus muscle (Also palmar fascia from the palmaris longus muscle covering the anterior portion of the hand) which runs over the TOP of the carpal ligament, plus the flexor muscles of the forearm which tendons run through the carpal tunnel, become overly short and tight, compressing the carpal ligament from above and within as well as pulling the carpal bones inward causing the carpal tunnel to become smaller and impinging the median nerve. The carpal tunnel cannot expand due to the fact that the carpal ligament does not expand, therefore keeping the carpal tunnel from actually becoming larger, or the hand from folding in half lengthwise, as if you were touching the backside of the little finger and thumb regions together. Leaving the carpal ligament in place is also important in order to keep the flexor tendons from \"\"bowing\"\" and is used as a fulcrum point for leverage as it is necessary for a strong grip. Because the finger and wrist flexor and finger adductor groups are exercised on a daily basis with virtually every activity we perform, they become stronger, shorter and tighter, thus causing the carpal bones to shift inward, collapsing the carpal tunnel and making it smaller. As daily hand motions are continually performed with the carpal tunnel now reduced in size, the result is increased friction of the nine flexor tendons and median nerve within the carpal tunnel. And what does friction cause? Irritation and swelling to the soft tissues within the carpal tunnel. This is why surgeons severe the carpal ligament, making more room for the flexor tendons and median nerve."

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the hand, becomes pressed or squeezed at the wrist. The medium nerve controls the thumb; the index, middle and ring fingers are under the control of the median nerve. The carpal tunnel is a narrow, rigid passageway of ligament and bones at the base of the hand. Thickening from irritated or swollen tendons narrows the tunnel and causes the median nerve to be compressed. Symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome Symptoms of carpal tunnel usually start gradually, with frequent burning, tingling, or itching numbness in the palm of the hand and fingers. Numbing of the index and middle finger are very common. The fingers may feel swollen or even useless even though little or no swelling may be present. Many people who suffer from carpal tunnel notice their hands falling asleep in the night. This is caused by the normal tendency to sleep with a flexed wrist which cuts off circulation even further."

The conditions most likely to cause tingling in the fingers include those that affect the nerves and blood vessels. Although not all causes are serious and resolve quickly--as for instance when a person stays in one position too long--a persistent tingling sensation in the fingers should not be ignored. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Raynaud's Syndrome Raynaud’s syndrome, also called Raynaud’s disease or Raynaud’s phenomenon, occurs when the tiny blood vessels in the fingers and toes constrict, or enter a state of vasospasm, as described by Mayo Clinic.com. Several different conditions can trigger Raynaud’s syndrome, including extreme cold and emotional upset. Smoking and working with vibrating machinery increases the risk of developing Raynaud’s syndrome. As the blood vessels leading to the fingers and toes spasm, they become narrower, decreasing the supply of blood and oxygen to the area. This causes the fingers to turn white and feel numb or tingling. Although rare, a severe case can cause the arteries to permanently narrow or become blocked, leading to deformities of the fingers due to lack of blood. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Carpal tunnel syndrome describes a condition in which the median nerve—the nerve that supplies feeling and movement to the thumb-side of the hand—becomes compressed."

Dr. Reid Abrams discusses carpel tunnel syndrome Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a condition in which the median nerve is compressed as it passes through an opening from the wrist to the hand called the carpal tunnel. The carpal tunnel is about 1½ inches long and is located at the base of the hand near the wrist. It is bordered on three sides by the carpal bones and on the palm side by a tight band of connective tissue called the transverse carpal ligament. The median nerve provides sensory and motor functions to the thumb and three middle fingers. While CTS can be painful, its essential symptom is numbness or tingling in the thumb, index finger, long and part of the ring finger. According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), carpal tunnel release is one of the most common surgical procedures performed in the U. S.

Carpal tunnel release is a surgery used to treat and potentially heal the painful condition known as carpal tunnel syndrome. Doctors used to think that carpal tunnel syndrome was caused by an overuse injury or a repetitive motion performed by the wrist or hand, often at work. They now know that it’s most likely a congenital predisposition (something that runs in families) – some people simply have smaller carpal tunnels than others. Carpal tunnel syndrome can also be caused by injury, such as a sprain or fracture, or repetitive use of a vibrating tool. It's also been linked to pregnancy, diabetes, thyroid disease, and rheumatoid arthritis. The median nerve and tendons that allow your fingers to move pass through a narrow passageway in the wrist called the carpal tunnel. The carpal tunnel is formed by the wrist bones on the bottom and the transverse carpal ligament across the top (or inside) of the wrist. When this part of the body is injured or tight, swelling of the tissues within the tunnel can press on the median nerve. This causes numbness and tingling of the hand, pain, and loss of function if not treated."

Some problems are the result of how you use your hands in everyday activities – for example, sprains and strains as well as fractures can occur with lifting and carrying heavy objects, operating machinery, bracing against a fall, or sports-related injuries. Other problems of the wrist and hand can also attributed to everyday use but are actually a chronic condition or long-term problem, including carpal tunnel syndrome, that develop over periods of time. Your hands and wrists may also be affected by systemic disease, such as rheumatoid arthritis, and those that affect primarily the joints, such as osteoarthritis. Seeking early medical attention to hand and wrist problems is important for proper diagnosis and effective treatment, as well as for preventive measures that will provide long-term strengthening and relief. Additionally, your doctor can recommend a variety of measures that can help halt or minimize the progression of chronic problems, such as arthritis, so the impact on your daily life is lessened. Any problem causing pain, swelling, discoloration, numbness or a tingling sensation, or abnormal contour of the hand or wrist that persists for more than two or three days should be evaluated by your doctor to establish the cause and obtain the best treatment as early as possible.

Your doctor will review the pattern of your symptoms. For example, because the median nerve doesn't provide sensation to your little finger, symptoms in that finger may indicate a problem other than carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms usually occur include while holding a phone or a newspaper, gripping a steering wheel, or waking up during the night. Physical examination. Your doctor will conduct a physical examination. He or she will test the feeling in your fingers and the strength of the muscles in your hand. Bending the wrist, tapping on the nerve or simply pressing on the nerve can trigger symptoms in many people. X-ray. Some doctors recommend an X-ray of the affected wrist to exclude other causes of wrist pain, such as arthritis or a fracture."

"text": "Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Fast Facts Carpal tunnel syndrome may interfere with hand strength and sensation, and cause a decrease in hand function. Other conditions, such as arthritis, tendonitis and other nerve involvement, need to be ruled out before diagnosing carpal tunnel syndrome. Physicians can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome by history of the symptoms, physical examination and electrical testing, and in some cases by use of ultrasound or MRI. Carpal tunnel syndrome can be treated effectively with medications, splinting, and steroid injections in the wrist and/or surgery. Carpal tunnel syndrome is possibly the most common nerve disorder experienced today. It affects 4 – 10 million Americans and is usually very treatable. Middle-aged to older individuals are more likely to develop the syndrome than younger persons, and females three times more frequently than males. Carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms range from mild occasional numbness in the fingers to hand weakness, loss of feeling and loss of hand function. Because of widespread familiarity, people often attribute any discomfort or pain in the hand or wrist to carpal tunnel syndrome. However, there are many other conditions which can cause similar complaints, so it is important to know the difference."

Usually, it is a cry for help from various parts of the body, and is mostly associated with neurological disorders. Feeling like needle pricks, numbness is a symptom that can indicate one of several diseases and disorders. Temporary numbness not accompanied by pain or changes in skin colour may be a normal response to cold temperature. However, if the numbness is extreme and lasts for several hours, it should not be ignored. Also recurring numbness can be a symptom of an underlying serious medical condition. Unless other symptoms are present, extensive testing and diagnosis may be necessary before the underlying cause of the symptom is uncovered. Let us take a look at the possible causes of numbness in the fingers and toes. Vitamin B Deficiencies Vitamin B12 is essential for maintaining healthy nerve cells.

Suddenly, a sharp, piercing pain shoots through the wrist and up your arm. Just a passing cramp? It could be carpal tunnel syndrome. The carpal tunnel is a narrow passageway of ligament and bones at the base of your hand. It contains nerve and tendons. Sometimes, thickening from irritated tendons or other swelling narrows the tunnel and causes the nerve to be compressed. Symptoms usually start gradually. As they worsen, grasping objects can become difficult. Often, the cause is having a smaller carpal tunnel than other people do."

Answer by Carpal tunnel provider Confidence votes 1.7KWell kind of...it's not called carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) though. It's called tarsal tunnel syndrome... pronounced Tar-sull. Like carpal is the name of your wrist bones,tarsal is the name of your foot bones. A nerve in your leg branches out into your foot. It's fairly uncommon,but is seen in foot and ankle injuries/fractures,or if there is some type of lesion/tumor near the nerve. You get burning pain,numbness and tingling to the bottom of your foot. Sometimes a heel wedge that aligns your foot and ankle solves the problem,but surgery may be needed if symptoms persist. No not carpal tunnel however there may be some other similar interference with nerves that work in that area.33 people found this useful Was this answer useful?"

Hive Aren't Always Caused by Allergies By Daniel More, MD, a board-certified physician Updated February 23, 2018Share Pin Email Printkonmesa/istockphoto Urticaria, or hives, is a dermatologic condition that causes swollen, red bumps on the skin. Also known as weals, these bumps usually appear rapidly and can be anywhere on the body, causing your skin to itch, burn, or sting. The itching is often the worst part and once you've gone through it, the idea of reliving the experience is unpleasant. That's why you might be desperate to know what caused it. Allergies to foods and soaps or detergents are often the first things that come to mind. While many people try to avoid these suspected triggers, they frequently find that it doesn't help. You might be surprised to know that while allergies may be the problem, other causes are more common. What Caused Your Hives? Urticaria affects almost 20 percent of the population but the majority of the time, the cause is unknown (idiopathic)."

An allergen is something that produces an allergic reaction. It is also known as urticaria, welts, weals, or nettle rash. When an allergic reaction occurs, the body releases a protein called histamine. When histamine is released, the tiny blood vessels known as capillaries leak fluid. The fluid accumulates in the skin and causes a rash. Hives affect around 20 percent of people at some time in their life. It is not contagious.

They often result in redness and swelling in the injured area. Sometimes a sting or bite can cause a life-threatening allergic reaction or transmit pathogens ( viruses, bacteria or parasites, for example) to humans. Arthropods are insects that live primarily on land and have six legs. They dominate the present-day land fauna. They represent about three-fourths of known animal life. In fact, the actual number of living species is not known and is estimated to be over 10 million. The orders that contain the greatest numbers of species are: Coleoptera (beetles),Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths),Hymenoptera (ants, bees, wasps), and Diptera (true flies).

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Honey bees at a hive entrance: One is about to land and another is fanning. Colony collapse disorder ( CCD) is the phenomenon that occurs when the majority of worker bees in a colony disappear and leave behind a queen, plenty of food and a few nurse bees to care for the remaining immature bees and the queen. While such disappearances have occurred throughout the history of apiculture, and were known by various names (disappearing disease, spring dwindle, May disease, autumn collapse, and fall dwindle disease), [1] the syndrome was renamed colony collapse disorder in late 2006 [2] in conjunction with a drastic rise in the number of disappearances of western honey bee ( Apis mellifera) colonies in North America. [ 3] European beekeepers observed similar phenomena in Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Spain, [4] Switzerland and Germany, albeit to a lesser degree, [5] and the Northern Ireland Assembly received reports of a decline greater than 50%. [ 6]Colony collapse disorder causes significant economic losses because many agricultural crops worldwide are pollinated by western honey bees. According to the Agriculture and Consumer Protection Department of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the worth of global crops with honey bee pollination was estimated at close to $200 billion in 2005. [ 7] Shortages of bees in the US have increased the cost to farmers renting them for pollination services by up to 20%. [ 8]In the six years leading up to 2013, more than 10 million beehives were lost, often to CCD, [9] nearly twice the normal rate of loss. To put this in perspective, according to U. N. FAO data, the world's beehive stock rose from around 50 million in 1961 to around 83 million in 2014, which is about 1.3% average annual growth. Average annual growth has accelerated to 1.9% since 2009."

My fiance had never had hives before, then one night she was covered and had them from that night on. She doesn’t have celiac disease but she does have a more hives when she eats gluten. What is happening with your body is that you are producing more histamines than your liver can effectively discard of. There are a couple things I would suggest trying.

My thyroid doctor says there is no link between the thyroid and the hives and has taken a leave of abscence from his practice. I am now very frustrated and feel like I have to settle with no answers. Does anyone else have these issues?? or does anyone have any thoughts about this?? Read more Oct 05, 2008Follow - 8 Upvote - 0 49 Answers Next Question49 Answers Page 3 of 3mlr3475080I do!

"text": "\"Hives Definition Chronic hives, also known as urticaria, are batches of raised, red or white itchy welts (wheals) of various sizes that appear and disappear. While most cases of hives go away within a few weeks or less, for some people they are a long-term problem. Chronic hives are defined as hives that last more than six weeks or hives that go away, but recur frequently. In most cases of chronic hives, a cause is never clearly identified. In some cases, chronic hives may be related to an underlying autoimmune disorder, such as thyroid disease or lupus. While the underlying cause of chronic hives is usually not identified, treatment can help with symptoms. For many people, antihistamine medications provide the best relief. Symptoms Hives generally: -Appear as small round wheals, rings, or large patches and may change shape -Itch and may be surrounded by a red flare -Occur in batches, and often appear on the face or the extremities Individual hives can last from 30 minutes to 36 hours. As some hives disappear, new hives may develop. About 40 percent of people with chronic hives also have angioedema."

Hives occur in about 20% of the population of the world, with these people having at least one case of hives in their life. For the most part, hives are caused by an infection and viruses that can cause a fever, foods and medications. Some cases of hives are caused by hot or cold temperatures, exercise, pressure, sunlight and vibrations. Most cases of hives will go away within a few hours or days; but there are cases that do last longer than 6 weeks. These cases are called chronic urticaria (AKA chronic hives )."

Low serum chloride levels with hypokalemia are usually associated with increased serum bicarbonate and metabolic alkalosis, suggesting diuretic use, vomiting, hyperaldosteronism, or abuse of licorice or laxatives as the etiology of hypokalemia. Initial evaluation and monitoring of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA)- chloride measurement is used to calculate plasma anion gap. Hyperchloremic normal anion gap metabolic acidosis is present on admission in about 10% of patients with DKA and is present in nearly al patients after resolution of Ketonemia. During treatment, severity of hyperchloremia can be exacerbated by excessive administration of 0.9% sodium chloride for hydration. Metabolic acidosis - an elevated serum chloride level occurs in Hyperchloremic acidosis, a metabolic acidosis in which the anion gap is normal.

The most serious electrolyte disturbances involve abnormalities in the levels of sodium, potassium, and/or calcium. Kidneys work to keep the electrolyte concentrations in the blood constant despite changes in the body. Key Termshomeostasis: The ability of a system or living organism to adjust its internal environment to maintain a stable equilibrium; such as the ability of warm-blooded animals to maintain a constant temperature.electrolyte: Any of the various ions (such as sodium or chloride) that regulate the electric charge on cells and the flow of water across their membranes.sodium: A chemical element with symbol Na (from Latin: natrium) and atomic number 11. It is a soft, silvery white, highly reactive metal and is a member of the alkali metals. Importance of Electrolyte Balance Electrolytes play a vital role in maintaining homeostasis within the body. They help regulate myocardial and neurological function, fluid balance, oxygen delivery, acid-base balance, and other biological processes. Electrolytes are important because they are what cells (especially those of the nerve, heart, and muscle ) use to maintain voltages across their cell membranes and to carry electrical impulses (nerve impulses, muscle contractions) across themselves and to other cells. Electrolyte imbalances can develop from excessive or diminished ingestion and from the excessive or diminished elimination of an electrolyte."

However, several disease processes and toxins have been found to alter the red blood cell membrane, leading to the formation of echinocytes. Therefore, the presence of echinoctyosis on blood smear examination or on hematology reports may have diagnostic significance. Echinocyte Morphology Echinocytes are morphologically altered red blood cells that appear to have numerous, fine, uniform spicules throughout the cell membrane. In mammals, echinocytes have been classified into five main types according to progressive stages in formation and maturation. Type I echinocyte (echinodiscocytes) are described as irregularly shaped erythrocytes without defined spicules.

Related to Cushings syndrome: Addison's disease, cortisol Cushing's Syndrome Definition Cushing's syndrome is a relatively rare endocrine (hormonal) disorder resulting from excessiveexposure to the hormone cortisol. The disorder, which leads to a variety of symptoms andphysical abnormalities, is most commonly caused by taking medications containing thehormone over a long period of time. A more rare form of the disorder occurs when the body itselfproduces an excessive amount of cortisol. Description The adrenals are two glands, each of which is perched on the upper part of the two kidneys. Theouter part of the gland is known as the cortex; the inner part is known as the medulla. Each of these parts of the adrenal gland is responsible for producing different types of hormones. Regulation of hormone production and release from the adrenal cortex involves the pituitarygland, a small gland located at the base of the brain. After the hypothalamus (the part of thebrain containing secretions important to metabolic activities) sends \"\"releasing hormones\"\" to thepituitary gland, the pituitary secretes a hormone called adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). The ACTH then travels through the bloodstream to the adrenal cortex, where it encourages theproduction and release of cortisol (sometimes called the \"\"stress\"\" hormone) and otheradrenocortical hormones."

In terms of how our bodies function, electrolytes are anything but “just”…Your body is a complex and carefully-balanced superhighway of cells, tissues, and fluids that, almost every second, directs an incomprehensible array of electrical impulses.

( verify)Metolazone is a thiazide-like diuretic marketed under the brand names Zytanix from Zydus Cadila, Zaroxolyn, and Mykrox. It is primarily used to treat congestive heart failure and high blood pressure. Metolazone indirectly decreases the amount of water reabsorbed into the bloodstream by the kidney, so that blood volume decreases and urine volume increases. This lowers blood pressure and prevents excess fluid accumulation in heart failure. Metolazone is sometimes used together with loop diuretics such as furosemide or bumetanide, but these highly effective combinations can lead to dehydration and electrolyte abnormalities.

Its creator, Indian born chemist Dr. Bola Vithal Shetty has been active in helping the U. S. Food and Drug Administration review drug applications, and in the development of new medicines. [ 1] Metolazone quickly gained popularity due to its lower renal toxicity compared to other diuretics (especially thiazides) in patients with renal insufficiency."

"text": "What Is Serum Chloride?by TODD HELFMAN Oct. 03, 2017Chloride is one of the four main electrolytes found in the serum, or bloodstream. Serum electrolytes, such as sodium, potassium, bicarbonate, and chloride, are important for maintaining the human body's delicate fluid and metabolic acid-base balance. Alterations in the level of any individual main electrolyte greatly effects the homeostatic environment, causing a variety of deleterious effects on the body. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Identification Serum chloride is a negative ion, or molecule, found in the bloodstream; it is paired with sodium, a positive ion, also found in the blood. Paired with sodium, the movement of chloride throughout the body facilitates the movement of sodium, thus allowing fluid accumulations to be controlled. Excess fluid follows the sodium, resulting in homeostasis, or balance. Chloride can be measured with a simple blood test providing a range of serum levels that should be maintained. Effected by a variety of conditions, serum chloride is maintained at levels between 96 and 106 milliequivelants per liter (m Eq/L). Low Chloride Low chloride, or hypochloremia, is most often the result of inadequate intake of chloride or its loss from the body. Too much fluid can also dilute the serum and cause lower levels of measured serum chloride."

Mahouts say that the elephant' s 'muscle bundles' are tighter than those of other animals, especially the leg muscles that must support such great weight. The legs must bear a weight of about 2 000-3 000 kilograms in the case of mature elephants. The front legs bear two out of three parts of the weight. The feet and legs are like those of the hippopotamus and tapir with the front legs longer than the back. Weight is distributed on a foot pad. The elephant has only one gait, the walk, so, unlike a horse, it can neither trot or gallop. Still, using the walking footfall pattern, elephants can \"\"run\"\" [technically, amble] quite quickly. The world record was set by a Thai elephant electronically measured at 23.84 kph. In a working day, a mature elephant can safely transport goods or people over level ground for 25 kilometres."

Learn how and when to plant garlic so that you can maximize your harvest!When to Plant garlic Fall is traditionally the best time to plant garlic in many regions. A good rule of thumb is to not plant garlic until after the autumnal equinox. Just like onions and other plants in the Allium family, garlic is sensitive to daylength and matures during the longest days of summer. Fall planting gives it a jumpstart on the growing season and it will be one of the first things to come up in the garden next spring. How to plant garlic Garlic is extremely easy to grow, but good soil preparation is necessary if you want to produce the best and biggest bulbs. They need deeply cultivated, well-drained, rich soil with a p H of 6.4-6.8. Add 2-3 inches of compost and well-rotted manure to the bed before planting. Use quality seed garlic and plant several different varieties just in case one does poorly. Separate the cloves no more than 48 hours before planting to keep them from drying out."

Methods: This was an ethnographic study in medical anthropology. Discussion: Some reference sources and print and online news media have all contributed to the persistence of the association between NF1 and elephant man's disease. Our observations suggest that confusing NF1 with the Elephant Man's condition harms the interests of those with NF1 and thus increases the burden of the disease. Conclusion: Changes of attitude regarding medical teaching and the media could dispel the confusion among physicians and journalists. Elephant Man Genetic Disease Neurofibromatosis Proteus Syndrome Psychosocial Impact For many years it was thought Joseph Merrick, widely known as the Elephant Man, had suffered from neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). 1 In 1986, geneticists Tibbles and Cohen 2 demonstrated that Merrick was actually afflicted with Proteus syndrome, a much rarer condition. With an established diagnosis of Merrick's real disease and current knowledge about NF1, NFI should no longer be misguidedly identified with the disease the Elephant Man had. However, our recent experience in the context of an ongoing ethnographic study of intergenerational dialogue between adolescents with NF1 and their parents revealed that some physicians continue to identify NF1 as the same as Merrick's condition."

Arriving for his afternoon drink, the 10ft tall 15-year-old bull elephant was blissfully unaware of the female predator, who had been relaxing in the shade of a waterside tree. Caught between the water and the rapidly approaching elephant, the lioness had to act fast to avoid being charged by the thirsty nelly. Taking the bull by surprise she bolted for safety across his line of sight - initially startling the elephant. The lioness saw the thirsty giant approach and grew anxious The lioness and elephant were blissfully unaware of each other at first The lioness decides she's had enough and starts to make a run for it But he suddenly charged - to reinforce he was the real king of the jungle - giving chase to the lioness before he resumed his drink. ' While on a drive I noticed a lioness sitting in the shade of the tree,' said British wildlife guide Mark Sheridan-Johnson, from Newcastle, who captured the interaction during a tour in the Selous Game Reserve in Tanzania. ' We watched her for a while before I noticed a young bull elephant in the distance coming down for a drink and he was heading straight for the lioness. ' I thought 'this could be interesting' and waited to watch the outcome as the bull slowly strolled down to the lakes edge. ' The lioness was completely trapped in between the elephant and the lake. She bolted right across the 10ft elephant's line of sight After sufficiently scaring her off, the elephant returned to the water to finish getting a drink Rather than scaring him off, the lioness's dash had the elephant in hot pursuit'As the bull approached, the lioness became more anxious as the seriousness of the situation became apparent to her."

But a closer look reveals hidden cruelty and serious risks. Cruelty behind the scenes Cruelty that may not be evident to spectators often occurs behind the scenes in various forms—in abusive training methods used to try to control animals of this size; in chaining them for many hours a day; and in depriving them of social contact with other elephants. Because of the unnatural environments in which they live, captive elephants often suffer from debilitating foot conditions, arthritis and other ailments. The confined life of captive elephants is in sharp contrast to that of elephants in the wild, who may walk 30 miles a day and establish life-long bonds. Accidents waiting to happen There is no predicting when elephants will respond aggressively to harsh treatment or when a seemingly innocuous incident will set them on a fearful rampage. With their large size, even a small misstep can be deadly. Imagine being on the back of an elephant when the elephant decides to run. That's what happened in Florida in 1992. A woman and five children were riding an 8,000-pound Asian elephant, called both Janet and Kelly, when the elephant suddenly bolted."

Adult males may grow to over 13 feet (4 m) in length and weigh up to 4,500 pounds (2,000 kg). The females are much smaller at 10 feet (3 m) in length and 1,500 pounds (600 kg). The northern elephant seal is the second largest seal in the world, after the southern elephant seal. The elephant seal is in the phocid, or true seal, family. It lacks external ear flaps and moves on land by flopping on its belly. The elephant seal has a broad, round face with very large eyes. Pups are born with a black coat which is molted, or shed, at about the time of weaning (28 days), revealing a sleek, silver-gray coat. Within a year, the coat will turn silvery brown."

"text": "\"The Grapevine The Elephant In The Room: Genetic Reason Why Elephants Don’t Get Cancer Could Pave Way For Human Treatments Oct 9, 2015 02:30 PM By Dana Dovey Elephants' DNA has given a clue to why they are far less likely to get cancer, despite being 100 times larger than humans. Andy Leppard CC BY 2.0Share Tweet Share E-mail There's a 40 percent chance of the average person developing cancer in their lifetime. For certain dog breeds, such as the Great Dane, the risk can jump to 50. However, this disposition is not evenly distributed throughout nature: some large mammals, like whales and elephants, have a less than five percent lifetime risk of cancer. A recent study may have discovered the reasoning behind these animals’ natural immunity, and suggests that genetics may hold the answer to conquering the human battle with the disease. Medicine is full of paradoxes: How is it that the French suffer from relatively low incidences of heart disease despite having a diet rich in saturated fats? Why are some moderately obese people with chronic diseases outliving normal-weight people with the same health issues? Perhaps the most perplexing realities is something called the Peto paradox. Named after Sir Richard Peto, the Oxford University epidemiologist who linked smoking to cancer in the 1970s, the Peto paradox questions how large animals that undergo far more cell division than humans can be nearly immune to cancer, a disease marked by this division. Newsweek reported that from a scientific standpoint, elephants, who have 100 times more cells than humans, should therefore be 100 times more likely to develop cancer."

"text": "Archives | 1981WOMAN WITH 'ELEPHANT MAN' DISEASE CHOOSES BOLD SURGERYBy RICHARD SEVEROView page in Times Machine, Page 00001 The New York Times Archives PHILADELPHIA FOR most of her 21 years, Lisa H. has been taunted by the children who should have been her playmates, shunned by the people who might have been her friends, and ignored by the employers who could have given her the work she always wanted. Lisa - as she asked to be called for this article - suffers from a genetic disease called neurofibromatosis, which has covered her face with benign but large tumors and weakened and deformed her facial bones. There is no cure for neurofibromatosis, also known as the Elephant Man's Disease, so named after John Merrick, a victim who lived in the 19th century and was known as the Elephant Man. Mr. Merrick had the disease on most of his body; Lisa's is almost totally confined to her face. As many as 100,000 Americans may suffer from the same disease, but Lisa's case is regarded as extraordinarily severe. And so, tomorrow morning, for the 12th time in her life, she will undergo risky surgery here, in yet another effort to improve her appearance. She wants this surgery desperately so that she will be a little more acceptable to herself; so that she can look at herself in the mirror, something she now refuses to do. There is a mirror in her living room, deliberately hung too high for her to see her own reflection when she is there. There is a mirror in her own room, too, but she has covered it with a picture. Her surgery will indeed be radical."

With some of these examples, exact numbers were hard to obtain since most of the attacks and resultant fatalities happen in remote parts of Africa.7. The Desert Locusts It may surprise you to know that insects are also considered to be animals! The definition of an animal, in several dictionaries, is as follows: “a living organism characterized by voluntary movement”, so the Locust definitely fits the bill! Although they do not kill humans directly, the devastation they cause to crops has a direct effect on humans and therefore they warrant a slot in Africa’s top 7 most dangerous animals. The Desert Locust is one of about a dozen species of short-horned grasshoppers that are known to change their behaviour when prevailing conditions are good, such as after particularly good rains when larger than average crops are expected. They form enormous swarms of adults, or bands of hoppers (wingless nymphs) which spread over a vast area. The last major Locust plague occurred in the summer of 2004 in West and North Africa, when swarms migrated over the continent causing mass devastation. Large parts of Mali, Niger, Sudan and Mauritania were affected, as well as Morocco and Algeria, once the swarms reached North Africa. It was also the first time in over 50 years that Egypt, Jordan and Israel were affected."

"text": "\"elephantiasis (redirected from elephant leg) Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Encyclopedia . Elephantiasis Definition The word elephantiasis is a vivid and accurate term for the syndrome it describes: the gross (visible) enlargement of the arms, legs, or genitals to elephantoid size. Description True elephantiasis is the result of a parasitic infection caused by three specific kinds of roundworms. The long, threadlike worms block the body's lymphatic system—a network of channels,lymph nodes, and organs that helps maintain proper fluid levels in the body by draining lymphfrom tissues into the bloodstream. This blockage causes fluids to collect in the tissues, whichcan lead to great swelling, called \"\"lymphedema.\"\" Limbs can swell so enormously that theyresemble an elephant's foreleg in size, texture, and color. This is the severely disfiguring anddisabling condition of elephantiasis. There are a few different causes of elephantiasis, but the agents responsible for most of theelephantiasis in the world are filarial worms: white, slender round worms found in most tropicaland subtropical places. They are transmitted by particular kinds (species) of mosquitoes, that is,bloodsucking insects. Infection with these worms is called \"\"lymphatic filariasis\"\" and over a longperiod of time can cause elephantiasis."

Such a type of condition essentially does not cause loss of self identity. Presentation Workup Treatment Prognosis Etiology Epidemiology Pathophysiology Prevention Summary Patient Information References Presentation Individuals with amnesia usually find problems with short term memory. They are unable to remember recent or new information. Such individuals usually have sound memory about their childhood days or history. For example; such individuals can recall name of past presidents, but would unable to tell names of current ones. Also, they would find difficulty in telling what they had for breakfast. Individuals with retrograde amnesia are unable to recall past events or memories and those with anterograde amnesia find difficulty in learning new things [7]. However, individuals with such a kind of memory loss are still able to understand written and spoken words. In addition, affected individuals present with the following signs and symptoms: Confusion Disorientation Confabulation, characterized by false recollections Workup At the preliminary level, various tests will be done to rule out underlying conditions that can be a cause of memory loss such as Alzheimer disease, dementia, brain tumor or depression. Thereafter, the following tests would be done to diagnose amnesia [8]: Past medical history: A detailed medical history about illnesses and brain injury in the past is taken."

It is defined in contrast to short-term and working memory, that persist for only about 18 to 30 seconds. Long-term memory is commonly labelled as explicit memory ( declarative ), as well as episodic memory, semantic memory, autobiographical memory, and implicit memory ( procedural memory ).

[ 1]Atkinson-Shiffrin memory model [ edit]Main article: Atkinson–Shiffrin memory model According to the dual store memory model proposed by Richard C. Atkinson and Richard Shiffrin in 1968, memories can reside in the short-term \"\"buffer\"\" for a limited time while they are simultaneously strengthening their associations in long-term memory. When items are first presented, they enter short-term memory, but due to its limited space, as new items enter, older ones are pushed out. However, each time an item in short-term memory is rehearsed, it is strengthened in long-term memory. Similarly, the longer an item stays in short-term memory, the stronger its association becomes in long-term memory. [ 2]Baddeley's model of working memory [ edit]Main article: Baddeley's model of working memory In 1974 Baddeley and Hitch proposed an alternative theory of short-term memory: Baddeley's model of working memory. According to this theory, short-term memory is divided into different slave systems for different types of input items, and there is an executive control supervising what items enter and exit those systems.

Numerous studies have shown that the most vivid autobiographical memories tend to be of emotional events, which are likely to be recalled more often and with more clarity and detail than neutral events. The activity of emotionally enhanced memory retention can be linked to human evolution; during early development, responsive behavior to environmental events would have progressed as a process of trial and error. Survival depended on behavioral patterns that were repeated or reinforced through life and death situations. Through evolution, this process of learning became genetically embedded in humans and all animal species in what is known as flight or fight instinct. Artificially inducing this instinct through traumatic physical or emotional stimuli essentially creates the same physiological condition that heightens memory retention by exciting neuro-chemical activity affecting areas of the brain responsible for encoding and recalling memory. [ 1] [2] [3] This memory-enhancing effect of emotion has been demonstrated in a large number of laboratory studies, using stimuli ranging from words to pictures to narrated slide shows, [4] [5] [6] as well as autobiographical memory studies.

Hatfield, Ph D., edited by Kathryn Patricelli, MAAt its basic level, the term cognitive disorder applies to any type of disorder, disease, or condition that impairs the cognitive functioning of the person. This results in the person's ability to function becoming extremely difficult or impossible without treatment or without some form of help. Cognition is a term that refers to:various mental functions such as learning and memoryperceiving or identifying and understanding the relationships of objects in one's environmentsolving problemsunderstanding languagecommunicating with othersmaking decisionsbeing able to think about things from different viewpoints. People with cognitive disorders have issues that affect their ability to perform one or more of these actions. According to the American Psychiatric Association's (APA) Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fifth Edition (DSM-5) cognitive disorders are now listed as neurocognitive disorders to indicate that there is some type of involvement of the brain. The main neurocognitive disorders listed in the DSM-5 are: Delirium: A change in thinking that develops over a short period of time and includes a loss of awareness of a person's surroundings, situation, and ability to think clearly. Dementia: A progressive decline in a person's thinking that most often includes memory loss, problems concentrating, and a loss of other thinking capabilities. Amnesia: Memory loss without a significant loss of other thinking abilities. Others: Many other conditions that can be due to medical conditions, the use of drugs, etc. There are many other possible causes and types of cognitive disorders."

Go to: Abstract Transient global amnesia usually affects patients between the ages of 40 and 80. Patients with this condition are often described – wrongly – as being confused. It presents classically with an abrupt onset of severe anterograde amnesia. It is usually accompanied by repetitive questioning. The patient does not have any focal neurological symptoms. Patients remain alert, attentive, and cognition is not impaired. However, they are disoriented to time and place. Attacks usually last for 1–8 h but should be less than 24 h. It is possible that it may result from different mechanisms such as venous congestion with valsalva-like activities before symptom onset, arterial thromboembolic ischaemia and vasoconstriction due to hyperventilation. Diagnosis may be made safely in the presence of a characteristic collateral history."

Treatment options depend on what caused the loss, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). A brain aneurysm may cause short-term memory loss, as well as long-term memory loss. Aneurysms are wek, bulging spots on the wall of brain arteries, according to the Brain Aneurysm Foundation (BAF).

"text": "\"Print Overview Dissociative disorders are mental disorders that involve experiencing a disconnection and lack of continuity between thoughts, memories, surroundings, actions and identity. People with dissociative disorders escape reality in ways that are involuntary and unhealthy and cause problems with functioning in everyday life. Dissociative disorders usually develop as a reaction to trauma and help keep difficult memories at bay. Symptoms — ranging from amnesia to alternate identities — depend in part on the type of dissociative disorder you have. Times of stress can temporarily worsen symptoms, making them more obvious. Treatment for dissociative disorders may include talk therapy (psychotherapy) and medication. Although treating dissociative disorders can be difficult, many people learn new ways of coping and lead healthy, productive lives. Symptoms Signs and symptoms depend on the type of dissociative disorders you have, but may include: Memory loss (amnesia) of certain time periods, events, people and personal information A sense of being detached from yourself and your emotions A perception of the people and things around you as distorted and unreal A blurred sense of identity Significant stress or problems in your relationships, work or other important areas of your life Inability to cope well with emotional or professional stress Mental health problems, such as depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts and behaviors There are three major dissociative disorders defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), published by the American Psychiatric Association: Dissociative amnesia. The main symptom is memory loss that's more severe than normal forgetfulness and that can't be explained by a medical condition. You can't recall information about yourself or events and people in your life, especially from a traumatic time."

Share: FULL STORYPatients who experience symptoms described as transient neurological attacks, such as temporary amnesia or confusion, may have a higher risk for stroke and dementia, according to a study in the December 26 issue of JAMA. Transient neurological attacks (TNAs) are episodes involving temporary (less than 24 hours) neurological symptoms. These symptoms can be nonfocal (that can include nonlocalizing cerebral symptoms), focal (known as transient ischemic attacks [TIAs], similar to ischemic stroke, except for duration [commonly 2-15 minutes, maximum 24 hours]), or a mixture of both focal and nonfocal. Although it has been well-documented that patients with TIA are at high risk of major vascular disease, few studies have examined whether nonfocal TNAs are a serious health threat, according to background information in the article. Michiel J. Bos, M. D., M. Sc., of Erasmus Medical Center, Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and colleagues studied the incidence and prognosis of focal, nonfocal and mixed TNAs. The study included 6,062 participants who were age 55 years or older and free from stroke, heart attack, and dementia when they entered the study (1990-1993), and were followed-up until January 2005. During the study a TNA occurred in 548 participants; 282 of these were classified as focal, 228 as nonfocal, and 38 as mixed. In both men and women, the incidence rates for nonfocal TNAs were almost as frequent as focal TNAs, and for both types of events the incidence rates strongly increased with increasing age."

Follow 3 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: This type of amnesia is used as a plot device in the movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, in which a company (appropriately named Lacuna) offers the service of having a specific person erased from someone's memories by removing all memories of them. According to Steven Johnson, (the author of \"\"Mind Wide Open: Your Brain and the Neuroscience of Everyday Life. \"\"): \"\" Scientists believe [memories] are captured and stored by two separate parts of the brain, the hippocampus, the normal seat of memory, and the amygdala, one of the brain's emotional centers. People incapable of forming long-term memories thanks to hippocampus damage can still form subconscious memories of traumatic events if their amygdala is intact. Someone suffering from the \"\"Memento\"\" condition would likely have a feeling of general unease encountering a person who had harmed them in the past, though they wouldn't be able to put their finger on why. As the plot of \"\"Eternal Sunshine\"\" correctly suggests, the brain is designed to preserve emotionally strong memories. Even amnesiacs, under the right circumstances, can remember their past feelings.\"\""

From fondly recollecting childhood events to remembering where we left our keys, memory plays a vital role in every aspect of our lives. It provides us with a sense of self and makes up our continual experience of life. It's easy to think of memory as a mental filing cabinet, storing away bits of information until we need them. In reality, it is a remarkably complex process that involves numerous parts of the brain. Memories can be vivid and long-lasting, but they are also susceptible to inaccuracies and forgetting.2 The Hippocampus Plays an Important Role In Memory The hippocampus is a region of the brain that is heavily associated with memory. Because of bilateral symmetry in the brain, both hemispheres contain a hippocampus. Image courtesy Wikimedia Commons The hippocampus is a horse-shoe shaped area of the brain that plays an important role in consolidating information from short-term memory into long-term memory. It is part of the limbic system, a system associated with emotions and long-term memories. The hippocampus is involved in such complex processes as forming, organizing, and storing memories."

The common presenting symptom is retrograde amnesia, whereby the individual is unable to recall any event leading up to the onset of amnesia itself. This includes all previously stored memories, especially ones that are stressful or traumatic in nature. They are able to form new memories moving forward. There are two types of psychogenic amnesia: Global amnesia: Also called fugue state, whereby a sudden loss of personal identity occurs that may last from a few hours to an entire day. Situation-specific: Can occur as the result of a particularly stressfully or traumatic event. Psychogenic amnesia signs and symptoms There are three types or patterns of psychogenic amnesia: Localized: This is when specific areas of knowledge or areas of personal identity, such as childhood, are forgotten. It’s often the result of a traumatic memory or specific trauma—for example, a robbery victim who does not remember being robbed at gunpoint but can recall the detail from the rest of that day. Generalized: Affects a broader area of a person’s memory, often encompassing major parts of their life. People with this particular symptom may not remember their name, job, or family members."

These negative effects occur every single time one drinks, even a single beer. The more one drinks, the stronger these negative effects. ( Those pleasurable effects will begin to fade quickly). Over time, the body becomes damaged from drinking… more damaged than you probably know. In fact, alcohol can cause several types of cancer. Aside from bodily harm, alcohol use has been linked to depression, anxiety, societal withdrawal, violent behavior, an increase in unprotected sex, and increased risk of motor vehicle accidents , suicide, injury, domestic violence , and even drowning. As if that’s not enough, alcohol does unbelievable damage to the body, and not just to the brain and liver. Virtually every part of the body is affected negatively from excessive drinking."

"text": "\"Dissociative amnesia Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Photo by: olly Definition Dissociative amnesia is classified by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders , 4th Edition, Text Revision, also known as the DSM-IV-TR as one of the dissociative disorders, which are mental disorders in which the normally well-integrated functions of memory, identity, perception, or consciousness are separated (dissociated). The dissociative disorders are usually associated with trauma in the recent or distant past, or with an intense internal conflict that forces the mind to separate incompatible or unacceptable knowledge, information, or feelings. In dissociative amnesia , the continuity of the patient's memory is disrupted. Patients with dissociative amnesia have recurrent episodes in which they forget important personal information or events, usually connected with trauma or severe stress . The information that is lost to the patient's memory is usually too extensive to be attributed to ordinary absentmindedness or forgetfulness related to aging. Dissociative amnesia was formerly called \"\"psychogenic amnesia. \"\" Amnesia is a symptom of other medical and mental disorders; however, the patterns of amnesia are different, depending on the cause of the disorder. Amnesia associated with head trauma is typically both retrograde (the patient has no memory of events shortly before the head injury) and anterograde (the patient has no memory of events after the injury). The amnesia that is associated with seizure disorders is sudden onset. Amnesia in patients suffering from delirium or dementia occurs in the context of extensive disturbances of the patient's cognition (knowing), speech, perceptions, emotions, and behaviors."

Amnesia is usually the result of physical damage to areas of thebrain from injury, disease, or alcoholism. Psychologic factors may also cause amnesia; a shocking or unacceptable situation may be too painful to remember, and the situation is then retained only in the subconscious mind. The technical term for this is repression. ( See also dissociative disorders .) Rarely is the memory completely obliterated. When amnesia results from a single physical or psychologic incident, such as a concussion suffered in an accident or a severe emotional shock,the victim may forget only the incident itself; the victim may be unable to recall events occurringbefore or after the incident or the order of events may be confused, with recent events imputed to thepast and past events to recent times. In another form, only certain isolated events are lost to memory. Amnesia victims usually have a good chance of recovery if there is no irreparable brain damage.

Researchers hope their new stem cell protocol will one day be used to treat the painful joint condition osteoarthritis. The success is attributed to a new procedure or protocol fur using human embryonic stem cells, developed under strict laboratory conditions, by the researchers at the University of Manchester in the UK. The researchers report a study about their work - funded by Arthritis Research UK - in the journal Stem Cells Translational Medicine. The study shows how they used the new protocol to grow and transform human embryonic stem cells into cartilage cells. Leading the research is Sue Kimber, a professor in the Faculty of Life Sciences at Manchester, who, with her colleagues, hopes their approach could in future be used to treat the painful joint condition osteoarthritis. She notes:\"\"This work represents an important step forward in treating cartilage damage by using embryonic stem cells to form new tissue, although it's still in its early experimental stages. \"\" Osteoarthritis mainly affects people over the age of 60, and is a major cause of disability. It is a degenerative disease caused by wearing away of cartilage in joints that have been continually stressed during a person's lifetime, including the knees, hips, fingers and lower spine region.

Antibodies protect humans from infections. It is a cancer with a vast spectrum of presentations, ranging from an indolent (slowly developing) form to a virulent form; from a disorder with a minimal protein abnormality and only a small number of malignant plasma cells, to a cancer that can result in rapid progression and death. The disease has numerous consequences, including anemia causing fatigue, bone loss resulting in weakening of the bones, bone fractures, and pain, kidney damage sometimes resulting in the need for dialysis, high calcium levels, altered immunity resulting in infections, and nerve damage which can cause numbness, tingling, or even pain and loss of strength. Classifying Myeloma Normal plasma cells help to defend the body against infection by producing antibodies. Antibodies typically consist of 2 heavy chains and 2 light chains. There are 5 kinds of heavy chains termed Ig G, Ig A, Ig M, Ig D, and Ig E; and 2 distinct types of light chain, termed kappa and lambda. In myeloma, all the abnormal plasma cells make the same antibody. Therefore, the myeloma can be classified by the type of light and heavy chains produced, such as Ig G kappa, Ig G lambda, Ig A kappa, or Ig A lambda, etc. The most common type of heavy chain produced in myeloma is Ig G, followed by Ig A and then Ig D. Ig M myelomas are rare, but when Ig M is elevated in the blood, the patient more likely has a related disorder, known as Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia."

Tests that examine the blood and bone marrow are used to detect (find) and diagnose chronic myelogenous leukemia. Certain factors affect prognosis (chance of recovery) and treatment options. Chronic myelogenous leukemia is a disease in which the bone marrow makes too many white blood cells. Chronic myelogenous leukemia (also called CML or chronic granulocytic leukemia) is a slowly progressing blood and bone marrow disease that usually occurs during or after middle age, and rarely occurs in children.

Introduction I personally selected this case of Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) to enhance my knowledge concerning its clinical manifestations, possible causes, cure and prevention, among others. This knowledge will eventually become an indispensable tool that can be shared to others and will never go out of style. It is a privilege to embrace this challenge in the form of service to humanity and the fulfillment of our nursing profession. Our core competence is the bare essential towards its success. As a nursing profession, it is imperative to learn new techniques in modern science in order to develop skills that would benefit the medical world. This learning potential must be relayed to posterity and develop new techniques, state -of –the- art technology that caters the modern man. In the final analysis, the achievement of one’s endeavor may usher us to find the light we are seeking for. First of all what is leukemia? Leukemia is a cancer of the blood, and is characterized by uncontrolled proliferation and accumulation of leukocytes (white blood cells). Most leukemic cells never mature into functioning leukocytes."

In the United States, this blood test is part of routine newborn screening done at the hospital. But older children and adults can be tested, too. In adults, a blood sample is drawn from a vein in the arm. In young children and babies, the blood sample is usually collected from a finger or heel. The sample is then sent to a laboratory, where it's screened for hemoglobin S. If the screening test is negative, there is no sickle cell gene present. If the screening test is positive, further tests will be done to determine whether one or two sickle cell genes are present. Additional tests If you or your child has sickle cell anemia, a blood test to check for a low red blood cell count (anemia) will be done. Your doctor might suggest additional tests to check for possible complications of the disease. If you or your child carries the sickle cell gene, you'll likely be referred to a genetic counselor."

This is a process naturally regulated in the body and tends to be very efficient in a healthy CNS. [ 1] The process creates a thinner myelin sheath than normal, but it helps to protect the axon from further damage, from overall degeneration, and proves to increase conductance once again. Demyelinating diseases, such as Multiple Sclerosis, have been of utmost interest within the last couple of decades. Recent research is uncovering some of the many unknown pathways involved with remyelination in hopes of battling demyelinating diseases like MS which can ultimately cripple a person. While no treatment exists yet in preventing remyelination failure in the chronic stages of these diseases, future research may yet prove to unlock key pathways that can be targeted.

GBS is rapidly surmounted by a progressive and ascending paralysis which can lead to respiratory dysfunction. The acute presentation is a neurological emergency. GBS is a form of autoimmune disease with a delayed hypersensitivity reaction. It is a rare manifestation of serum sickness or a transient syndrome resembling serum sickness with hematuria, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain accompanied by weakness (tired feeling), chills, low grade fever and possible evidence of brain involvement, indicated by lethargy and migraine headaches which may initially suggest a course of viral hepatitis, although one theory of the cause of migraine is a central nervous system (CNS) disorder. Serum sickness is of itself a type of delayed allergic response. Vaccines, broad spectrum antibiotics and \"\"virus in stealth\"\" to help kill cancer cells are themselves an onslaught on the immune system which can cause serum sickness leading to GBS or \"\"provocation polio\"\", which is a hallmark of GBS. The most serious complications of serum sickness are nerve conditions such as Guillain-Barre syndrome and peripheral neuritis. T cells, which are mediators of immune function are also involved in the pathogenesis of most or perhaps all forms of GBS. The flaccid phase may be overthrown by the inadvertent generation of mutant T cell receptors that are anti-self; i.e., a super-immune response sending white blood cells (called T cells) rampaging through the body destroying its own tissues."

Multiple Sclerosis Definition Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disorder affecting movement, ensation, andbodily functions. It is caused by destruction of the myelin insulation covering nerve fibers (neurons) in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). Description MS is a nerve disorder caused by destruction of the insulating layer surrounding neurons in thebrain and spinal cord. This insulation, called myelin, helps electrical signals pass quickly andsmoothly between the brain and the rest of the body. When the myelin is destroyed, nervemessages are sent more slowly and less efficiently. Patches of scar tissue, called plaques, formover the affected areas, further disrupting nerve communication. The symptoms of MS occurwhen the brain and spinal cord nerves no longer communicate properly with other parts of thebody. MS causes a wide variety of symptoms and can affect vision, balance, strength,sensation, coordination, and bodily functions. Multiple sclerosis affects more than a quarter of a million people in the United States."

"text": "\"Biology 2021998 First Web Reports On Serendip Multiple Sclerosis Mindy Boyce Multiple sclerosis is a disease of the central nervous system. It most commonly occurs in individuals between the ages of twenty and forty (1) and in higher numbers of women than men (2). In Multiple Sclerosis (or \"\"MS\"\") a loss of the nerves' axon coating myelin prohibits the nerve axons from efficiently conducting action and synaptic potentials. Scar tissue (called plaques or lesions) forms at the points where demyelination occurs in the brain and spinal cord, hence the name \"\"Multiple Sclerosis\"\"or \"\"many scars\"\" (3). The demyelination found in MS is thought to be caused by an autoimmune process, in which the body's immune system attacks its own healthy tissue (4). Other diseases thought to have an autoimmune basis are rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus and the insulin dependent form of diabetes mellitus (5). In the immune system, there are two types of white blood cells, B-cells and T-cells. T-cells exist in three forms, all responsible for different immune system responses. Helper T-cells recognize foreign antigens (the substance the immune system aims to destroy), stimulate antibody production, and produce cytokines (chemicals which act as biological messengers) which activate other T-cells. These T-cells are able to recognize antigens through their receptors, made of protein molecules that selectively bind to certain other molecules."

"text": "What types of demyelinating disease affect the central nervous system, and what can you do about them? Answers from Jerry W. Swanson, M. D. A demyelinating disease is any condition that results in damage to the protective covering (myelin sheath) that surrounds nerve fibers in your brain, optic nerves and spinal cord. When the myelin sheath is damaged, nerve impulses slow or even stop, causing neurological problems. Multiple sclerosis Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. In this disorder, your immune system attacks the myelin sheath or the cells that produce and maintain it. This causes inflammation and injury to the sheath and ultimately to the nerve fibers that it surrounds. The process can result in multiple areas of scarring (sclerosis). Other causes Other types of demyelinating disease and their causes include: Optic neuritis — inflammation of the optic nerve in one or both eyes Neuromyelitis optica (Devic's disease) — inflammation and demyelination of the central nervous system, especially of the optic nerve and spinal cord Transverse myelitis — inflammation of the spinal cord Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis — inflammation of the brain and spinal cord Adrenoleukodystrophy and adrenomyeloneuropathy — rare, inherited metabolic disorders MS and other demyelinating diseases most commonly result in vision loss, muscle weakness, muscle stiffness and spasms, loss of coordination, change in sensation, pain, and changes in bladder and bowel function. Treatment No cures exist for demyelinating diseases and their progression, and symptoms are different for everyone. Getting treatment early is important."

These can be caused by a variety of infectious, neoplastic, inflammatory or vascular diseases. Distinguishing non-neoplastic causes from neoplastic lesions is extremely important because a misdiagnosis can lead to unwarranted neurosurgery and exposure to toxic chemotherapy or potentially harmful brain irradiation. Diligent clinical evaluation and a battery of tests are required for making a definitive diagnosis. Newer advanced diagnostic techniques, such as diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), perfusion-weighted MRI, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, single-photon emission tomography and positron emission tomography may help in establishing the etiology. However, early brain biopsy is often needed because several of these diseases are potentially life-threatening.

Share Email Feedback Sections Overview Presentation DDx Workup Treatment Medication Follow-up Media Gallery References Practice Essentials The term chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) has been used to identify patients with a chronically progressive or relapsing symmetric sensorimotor disorder with cytoalbuminologic dissociation and interstitial and perivascular endoneurial infiltration by lymphocytes and macrophages. It can be considered the chronic equivalent of acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy, the most common form of Guillain-Barré syndrome. Signs and symptoms CIDP typically starts insidiously and evolves slowly, in either a slowly progressive or a relapsing manner, with partial or complete recovery between recurrences; periods of worsening and improvement usually last weeks or months. Most experts consider the necessary duration of symptoms to be greater than 8 weeks for the diagnosis of CIDP to be made. Symptoms reported include the following: Preceding infection (infrequent)Initial limb weakness, both proximal and distal Sensory symptoms (eg, tingling and numbness of hands and feet)Motor symptoms (usually predominant)In about 16% of patients, a relatively acute or subacute onset of symptoms In children, usually a more precipitous onset of symptoms Symptoms of autonomic system dysfunction (eg, orthostatic dizziness)Pertinent physical findings are limited to the nervous system, except when the condition is associated with other diseases. Such findings may include the following. Signs of cranial nerve (CN) involvement (eg, facial muscle paralysis or diplopia)Gait abnormalities Motor deficits (eg, symmetric weakness of both proximal and distal muscles in upper and lower extremities)Diminished or absent deep tendon reflexes Sensory deficits (typically in stocking-glove distribution)Impaired coordination See Clinical Presentation for more detail. Diagnosis Laboratory studies that may be helpful include the following: Cerebrospinal fluid analysis: Elevated protein levels are common (80% of patients); 10% of patients also have mild lymphocytic pleocytosis and increased gamma globulin Complete blood count (CBC), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), antinuclear antibody (ANA) level, biochemistry profile, and serum and urine immunoelectrophoresis (to exclude associated systemic disorders)In certain instances, genetic testing Other tests and procedures that may be warranted are as follows: MRI of the spine with gadolinium enhancement Electromyography (EMG) is a critical test to determine whether the disorder is truly a peripheral neuropathy and whether the neuropathy is demyelinating Peripheral (sural) nerve biopsy (see the image below): This is considered when the diagnosis is not completely clear, when other causes cannot be excluded, or when profound axonal involvement is observed on EMG; biopsy was once commonly recommended for most patients before immunosuppressive therapy, but current guidelines no longer recommend it Electron micrograph of the peripheral nerve of a patient with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy.

It results in slowly progressive weakness and loss of feeling in the legs and arms. The symptoms are of a slowly progressive numbness and tingling that usually starts in the feet, but later spreads to the legs and hands. The patients complain of weakness usually starting in the legs, but soon involving the arms. With further involvement of the sensory system, other modalities of sensations, such as balance, are affected and the patients complain of inability to walk or maintain balance in the dark. There is usually no bowel or bladder involvement. On rare occasions, cranial nerves are involved and their symptoms range from difficulty in swallowing to double vision and numbness involving the face. Cognitive skills are not affected by CIDP.

Summary Background Anti-TNFα biologics induce and maintain remission in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Also, they have been reported to induce or unmask idiopathic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (IIDD). Aim To determine if anti-TNFα biologics increased the risk of IIDD in a large cohort of patients with IBD. Methods We retrospectively identified adult patients referred to the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN for management of IBD from a five state capture area (Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Dakota, South Dakota and Iowa) between 1996 and 2010. IIDDs were identified in both Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) patients with and without anti-TNFα exposure using the 2010 Mc Donald MRI criteria. The risk of IIDDs in patients with and without anti-TNFα exposure was estimated for IBD; CD and UC groups separately. Results A total of 9095 patients with IBD were identified (4342 CD and 4753 UC). Four patients with CD with exposure to anti-TNFα agents (4/2054) and five patients with CD without anti-TNFα exposure (5/2288) developed a confirmed IIDD."

"text": "Localization of neurological disease The nature and pattern of the symptoms and physical signs of neurological disease allow inferences to be drawn about the sites of the lesions causing them. Lower-level sites Muscle One symptom indicating muscular disease is weakness, usually symmetrical (that is, affecting both sides of the body) and mainly affecting the proximal or girdle muscles. This type of weakness may be noticed when climbing stairs, arising from a deep chair, brushing the hair, or lifting an object. Facial weakness results in drooling and in difficulty in whistling. Weak masticatory muscles tire easily, so that food is chewed with difficulty, while bulbar muscle involvement leads to problems with phonation, articulation, and swallowing. Diseased muscles may also swell and be tender to the touch, or they may cramp. In the condition known as myotonia they continue to contract even when the individual tries to relax the muscles. Motor end plate Where fatigue and weakness are the symptoms, the underlying cause of disease may be a failure of motor nerve impulses to cross to the muscle end plate at the neuromuscular junction. Peripheral nerves Diffuse disease affecting the peripheral nerves may have a greater impact on either motor or sensory fibres, or it may affect both to an equal degree. Commonly, nerves are affected according to their length, the longest ones “dying back” from the periphery, being least able to sustain vital metabolic processes."

Synonyms of Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathychronic relapsing polyneuropathy CIDPGeneral Discussion Summary Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is a rare neurological disorder in which there is inflammation of nerve roots and peripheral nerves and destruction of the fatty protective covering (myelin sheath) over the nerves. This affects how fast the nerve signals are transmitted and leads to loss of nerve fibers. This causes weakness, paralysis and/or impairment in motor function, especially of the arms and legs (limbs). Sensory disturbance may also be present. The motor and sensory impairments usually affect both sides of the body (symmetrical), and the degree of severity and the course of disease may vary from case to case. Some affected individuals may follow a slow steady pattern of symptoms while others may have symptoms that stabilize and then relapse. Introduction CIDP is sometimes thought of as the chronic form of acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP), the most common form of Guillain Barré syndrome (GBS), in the United States and Europe. In contrast to GBS, most patients with CIDP cannot identify a preceding viral or infectious illness. GBS is a subacute disorder that progresses over 3-4 weeks, then plateaus and usually improves over months and does not recur."

"text": "\"Myelination is the process by which an electrically insulating layer known as a myelin sheath develops over neurons, the nerve cells responsible for transmitting electrical signals throughout the body. Specifically, myelination forms a myelin layer over the axon, the long, fibrous section of a neuron along which electrical signals are transmitted. The myelin sheath greatly increases the speed at which electrical impulses travel throughout the body. Many processes that are initiated, maintained, or terminated by rapidly-propagated nerve signals could not occur at a sufficient rate without the myelin sheath. Signal transduction along neurons lacking myelin tends to be quite slow, as the signals are forced to travel at a constant rate down uninsulated axons. Myelination, however, greatly increases the speed of transduction. It does not occur along the entire length of the neuron but instead leaves tiny gaps referred to as \"\" nodes of Ranvier .\"\" Signals, instead of traveling at a constant rate down an uninsulated axon, are instead able to \"\"jump\"\" from node to node in a process called \"\"saltatory conduction. \"\" The process of myelination, by which the myelin sheath is formed, begins early in fetal development and continues for many years, generally into adolescence. Usually, myelination affects the neurons throughout the body more than those in the brain during fetal development."

D., University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California Am Fam Physician. 1998 Feb 15;57 (4):755-764. The diagnosis of peripheral neuropathies can be frustrating, time consuming and costly. Careful clinical and electrodiagnostic assessment, with attention to the pattern of involvement and the types of nerve fibers most affected, narrows the differential diagnosis and helps to focus the laboratory evaluation. An algorithmic approach to the evaluation and differential diagnosis of a patient with peripheral neuropathy is presented, based on important elements of the clinical history and physical examination, the use of electromyography and nerve conduction studies, autonomic testing, cerebrospinal fluid analysis and nerve biopsy findings. The underlying cause of axonal neuropathies can frequently be treated; demyelinating neuropathies are generally managed with the assistance of a neurologist. The incidence of peripheral neuropathy is not known, but it is a common feature of many systemic diseases. Diabetes and alcoholism are the most common etiologies of peripheral neuropathy in adults living in developed countries. The primary worldwide cause of treatable neuropathy is leprosy. 1 Neuropathies associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection account for an increasing number of cases."

It can create discomforts and cause workload to kidneys. Therefore, it is essential to understand how edema occurs in CKD. It is mainly due to the following causes.1. Healthy kidneys can filter extra fluid and wastes from body and keep the balance of electrolyte levels in body. However, in CKD, as the malfunctioned kidneys are not able to work adequately, extra fluid and sodium in the circulation may cause edema. In early stages, it mainly occurs in eyelids and ankle. As kidney damage progresses, it will may affect every body part. In serious case, pulmonary edema may occur which can threaten the patients’ life.2. In CKD, if the tiny filtering blood vessels in kidneys are damaged, it can result in heavy proteins loss in urine."

When our heart supplying the body with required oxygen and nutrients fails to perform its task for various reasons, it causes some disorders in its own structure, or other organs. These are the complaints of patients as symptoms of the disease. Symptoms of heart disease presented in patients generally include: Pain Difficulty in breathing Tiredness and asthenia Heart-throb Swelling of legs and abdomen (edema and acid)Cough Syncope Indigestion, hiccup and swallowing difficulty Pain in the head and neck Cyanosis Pain It is one of the most important and common symptoms of heart diseases. Myocardium that is unable to receive sufficient volume of oxygen due to coronary artery disease (namely stenosis or blockage of vessels supplying the heart) manifests this as pain. However, not all of the chest pains are heart related. Pain of muscle, ribs, spine, and esophagus may be felt in the chest. If the pain occurs when you get tired or excited and goes of when you rest, it is highly likely to be associated with coronary arteries. Aortic stenosis, hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, severe hypertension, aortic regurgitation, severe anemia, and hypoxia can cause ischemic pains (i.e. reduced blood flow) in the chest. Aortic dissection (rupture of major vessel), pericarditis, mitral valve prolapse cause non-ischemic pains."

"text": "Daily Health Tips What Causes Pulmonary Edema (Fluid In Lungs)September 21, 2017 0136Water in the lung, known scientifically as pulmonary edema, occurs when the lungs become full of fluid, preventing the entry of oxygen and the output of carbon dioxide. The accumulation of fluid in the lung usually occurs when you have a problem with the cardiovascular system, such as heart failure, but it can also occur when there is a lung injury such as infections or exposure to toxins. Here are soem causes of fluid in lungs.1. Cardiovascular Problems When diseases of the cardiovascular system are not treated properly they can cause an excessive increase in pressure inside the heart, preventing the blood from being pumped properly. When this happens, blood collects around the lungs and increases the pressure inside the vessels in this region, causing the liquid, which is part of the blood, to be pushed into the lungs, occupying a space that should only be filled with air. Some of the cardiovascular diseases that most commonly cause this change include: Coronary Disease: this disease causes narrowing of the arteries of the heart that weakens the heart muscle, decreasing its ability to pump blood;Cardiomyopathy: in this problem, the heart muscle weakens without having a cause related to blood flow, as in the case of coronary disease;Heart Valve Problems: When the valves fail to close completely or open properly, the force of the heart can push excess blood into the lungs;High blood pressure: this disease makes it difficult for the heart to a function that needs to be strong enough to pump blood. Over time, the heart can lose the necessary strength, leading to blood pooling in the lungs. In addition, other conditions, such as kidney problems, can also raise blood pressure and hamper the work of the heart, leading to a case of pulmonary edema, when not treated properly.

"text": "What Is Dropsy Disease And What Causes It?by YIM Hafiz under CC BYDropsy disease is an old medical term that was used to describe what is now commonly referred to as edema in the U. S. and oedema in the U. K. Dropsy is the presence of an unusually large quantity of fluid beneath the skin or in a body cavity. This disease is frequently caused by an inflammation that can be due to a variety of causes. However, it is also frequently associated with more serious organ failure problems related to the heart, liver, or kidneys. One of the primary causes of dropsy is associated with blood vessel obstruction. This will lead to edema or dropsy in the affected limb. For instance, this often occurs in arteries in the legs. In order to rectify this situation and increase blood circulation to the lower leg a procedure known as a femoral/popliteal bypass surgery is often performed. Dropsy disease in the lower extremities, such as the feet or lower legs is often indicative of a condition known as congestive heart failure. The edema that occurs is a result of the inability of the right side of the heart to pump blood adequately. Blood that is circulated systemically will return to the right atrium of the heart, so that it can be pumped to the lungs in order to be re-oxygenated."

The best way to quantitate the edema, which is essential during follow-up, is by body weight. Determine if the edema is unilateral or bilateral. Unilateral pedal edema is due to venous obstruction. Venous obstruction is due to: Proximal thrombosis. Order a duplex venous ultrasound ASAP on anyone with new onset unilateral edema, before they wind up with a pulmonary embolism. Chronic venous insufficiency, common in women who’ve had many pregnancies, but possible in men or anybody whose venous valves give out with age. Focal lymph node enlargement, neoplastic or infectious [uncommon]. Systemic causes of pedal edema can also begin unilaterally, since slight venous incompetence is easily asymmetric, showing up first on just one side. But then they turn bilateral."

"text": "Edema About Edema Edema Symptoms Causes of Edema Edema Swelling Edema Treatment Pulmonary Edema Pitting Edema About Edema Edema is swelling caused by an excessive accumulation of fluid in the small spaces that surround the tissue and organs. This accumulation can occur when your capillaries leak fluid as a result of damage or increased pressure. Your body tries to compensate for the loss of fluid in your capillaries by retaining water in your kidneys. This over compensation then causes the capillaries to leak even more, creating a cycle of excess fluid throughout the body. When the fluid leaks into the surrounding tissue, the tissue swells and causes edema. Edema occurs most often in the legs because there is constant pressure on them. Various problems can cause peripheral edema in the legs, which may not be related to a specific disease. Edema in the legs can lead to serious health problems. Always talk to your doctor or health care provider for information about causes of peripheral edema and treatment options.

Authors will share clinical tools, including their own approaches to diagnosis and treatment, that practitioners can use to better care for their patients. The cornea is transparent, densely innervated, avascular, and the major refractive structure of the eye. A healthy cornea achieves and maintains transparency due to the organization of constituent cells and collagen fibers, as well as its relatively dehydrated state. Anything that alters this organization or deturgescence leads to development of a corneal opacity. 1As the outer and most exposed structure of the globe, the cornea is not only at risk for trauma, but also often receives close attention from clients. As such, a presenting complaint of corneal opacity is common in veterinary practice. Correct interpretation of corneal changes is critical for diagnosing corneal disease as well as many other ocular and some systemic diseases."

Related Topics: Pulmonary Edema Follow Question Answers From Experts & Organizations (1)Medicine Net5,093 Answers 311,554 Helpful Votes 212 Followers A. Pulmonary edema can be broadly divided into cardiogenic and noncardiogenic causes. Some of the common causes are listed below. Cardiogenic causes of pulmonary edema Cardiogenic causes of pulmonary edema results from high pressure in the blood vessels of the lung due to poor heart function. Congestive heart failure due to poor heart pumping function (arising from various causes such as arrhythmias and diseases or weakness of the heart muscle), heart attacks, or abnormal heart valves can lead to accumulation of more than the usual amount of blood in the blood vessels of the lungs. This can, in turn, cause the fluid from the blood vessels to be pushed out to the alveoli as the pressure builds up. Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema can be commonly caused by the following: Acute respiratory distress syndrome, a potentially serious condition caused by severe infections, trauma, lung injury, inhalation of toxins, lung infections, cocaine smoking, or radiation to the lungs. In ARDS, the integrity of the alveoli become compromised as a result of underlying inflammatory response, and this leads to leaky alveoli that can fill up with fluid from the blood vessels. Kidney failure and inability to excrete fluid from the body can cause fluid build-up in the blood vessels, resulting in pulmonary edema. In people with advanced kidney disease, dialysis may be necessary to remove the excess body fluid."

The most common characteristics are dyspnea and cough. Others include abnormal sputum, hemoptysis, altered breathing patterns, hypoventilation and hyperventilation, cyanosis, clubbing of the digits, and chest pain. ( 1248)Sitting up in a forward-leaning position generally relieves which breathing disorder? orthopnea orthopnea is generally relieved by sitting up in a forward-leaning posture or supporting the upper body on several pillows. ( 1249)Kussmaul respirations as a respiratory pattern may be associated with which characteristic (s)? Slightly increased ventilatory rate, large tidal volumes, and no expiratory pause Kussmaul respirations are characterized by a slightly increased ventilatory rate, very large tidal volume, and no expiratory pause. ( 1249)Respirations that are characterized by alternating periods of deep and shallow breathing are a result of which respiratory mechanism? Decreased blood flow to the medulla oblongata Alternating periods of deep and shallow breathing are characteristic of Cheyne-Stokes respirations and are the result of any condition that slows the blood flow to the brainstem, which in turn slows impulses that send information to the respiratory centers of the brainstem.

Last updated Mon 18 December 2017By Stephanie Brunner Reviewed by University of Illinois-Chicago, School of Medicine Treatment Causes Symptoms Pulmonary edema or pleural effusion Pulmonary edema or pneumonia Diagnosis Prevention Pulmonary edema occurs when fluid accumulates in the air sacs of the lungs - the alveoli - making it difficult to breathe. This interferes with gas exchange and can cause respiratory failure. Pulmonary edema can be acute (sudden onset) or chronic (occurring more slowly over time). If it is acute, it is classed as a medical emergency needing immediate attention. The most common cause of pulmonary edema is congestive heart failure, where the heart cannot keep up with the demands of the body. Treatment of pulmonary edema usually focuses on improving respiratory function and dealing with the source of the problem. It generally includes providing additional oxygen and medications to treat the underlying conditions. Fast facts on pulmonary edema Pulmonary edema is a condition involving fluid buildup in the lungs. Sudden onset (acute) pulmonary edema is a medical emergency."

"text": "Our Edema Main Article provides a comprehensive look at the who, what, when and how of Edema Pitting edema: Observable swelling of body tissues due to fluid accumulation that may be demonstrated by applying pressure to the swollen area (such as by depressing the skin with a finger). If the pressing causes an indentation that persists for some time after the release of the pressure, the edema is referred to as pitting edema. Any form of pressure, such as from the elastic in socks, can induce pitting with this type of edema. Edema can be caused by either systemic diseases (diseases affecting multiple organ systems) or by local conditions involving just the affected extremities. In systemic diseases that cause edema, the fluid accumulation is primarily due to the body's retention of too much salt (sodium chloride), causing the body to retain water.

Swelling of the ankles is quite common, especially if you have been travelling for a long duration. It occurs due to accumulation of excessive fluid in the tissues of the ankle and feet, a condition referred to as ankle edema. As the amount of fluid accumulates, the swelling may rise up into the leg. Due to man’s erect posture, the blood in the veins of the leg has to move against gravity towards the heart. This unidirectional flow of blood is ensured by the presence of valves in the veins and the contractions of the leg muscles. Thus, any problem with the return of blood to the heart can increase the blood pressure in the veins, resulting in seepage of fluid into the tissues, and ankle edema. Ankle edema may be described as pitting or non-pitting. If a temporary depression is formed in the skin on applying pressure, the edema is referred to as pitting edema."

Arthritis applies to pain within a joint secondary to inflammation. There are many causes of hip arthritis, the most common of which are degenerative arthritis, the basic wear-and-tear that occurs with age; traumatic arthritis which is arthritis secondary to an injury. Arthritis can also be a consequence of abnormality in the development of the hip joint such as syndromes called developmental dysplasia of the hip, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, and acetabular impingement. All these entities can result in hip arthritis. The symptoms associated with hip arthritis can be varied, the most common of which is groin pain. Groin pain is that pain that occurs deep in the joint that most people described as where the hip meets the body. Sometimes the pain can be located on the outside of the hip and even in the back of the hip. Patients will state that they have a tight feeling within their hip joint. They may describe night pain or activities of daily living."

"text": "A pinched nerve can cause pain in different parts of the body, depending on what areas of the body that nerve services. A nerve becomes pinched when it is compressed or otherwise damaged, sending pain throughout the length of that nerve. A pinched hip nerve can cause pain in the hip, lower back, and even down the length of the legs, depending on which nerve is being pinched. A pinched hip nerve may be a sciatic nerve or a femoral nerve, and each nerve will cause pain in a different area of the hip, back, or legs. Sciatica is one of the most common forms of nerve pain. It can be considered a pinched hip nerve if the sciatic nerve becomes compressed somewhere in the hip, or if the pain from the nerve is felt in the hip. A pinched hip nerve does not exist as stated; there is no hip nerve exactly, though several nerves do run through the hip. The sciatic nerve is the longest nerve in the body, and it runs from the lower back, through the hips and buttocks, and down into the legs all the way down to the feet. If this nerve becomes pinched or compressed anywhere along its length, one might feel a sharp pain, numbness, tingling, or in more severe cases, a loss of motor control anywhere in the legs, hips, or lower back. A pinched hip nerve due to femoral nerve compression will often cause pain in the groin, hips and thighs."

A bursa is a fluid-filled sac that serves as a cushion to the bones, tendons, and muscles that surround your joints. The job of the bursae is to reduce friction between the moving parts of your joints and help prevent damage from developing in the course of everyday activity. Occasionally, bursae can become inflamed, resulting in discomfort and pain, among other symptoms. This is called bursitis. Bursitis of the hip is when this inflammation occurs in one of the bursae in the hip. What Are the Types of Hip Bursitis? Bursitis cases are categorized based on the region of the body and the exact bursa affected. The hip has two major bursae—the trochanteric bursa and ischial bursa. Appropriately, the types of hip bursitis, or bursitis of the hip, are named after these two:1. Trochanteric Bursitis If you have ever looked at a femur, you will notice a sort of “hump” near the ball-like part that connects to the pelvis."

People with sciatica often experience pain running through the buttocks and down the back of the leg. However, it does not have to originate in the back; it can be caused by an injury to the pelvis or hip, or from direct pressure to the sciatic nerve. The pain can be mild or so severe that a person with sciatica may have trouble standing, sitting, or even sleeping. There is a range of treatments for sciatica, including many stretches that may help to ease the pain. Overview People with sciatica can experience pain that makes it difficult for them to sit or stand. The sciatic nerve is a nerve that originates in the lower back on either side of the spine. It runs through the buttocks and into the hips before branching down each leg. This nerve is the longest nerve in the body and provides sensation to the outer leg and foot. Sciatica itself is not an injury or disease."

Generally, lesions may be classified by their patterns, their sizes, their locations, or their causes. Lesions are sometimes also named after the person who discovered them. Some lesions have specialized names, such as Ghon lesions in the lungs of tuberculosis victims, which is named after the lesion's discoverer. ["

The general physician should be familiar with the diagnostic capabilities of all these tests and should be able to interpret the results of the lumbar puncture. Lumbar Puncture Technique The technique of lumbar puncture is learned in the ward, so only a few points are made here. Spinal taps should not be done above the L2-3 interspace because the spinal cord may be present above this level. If the flow of spinal fluid is not brisk, the following check is simple (Figure 11-1 ): The manometer is tilted horizontally to increase the flow and then brought back to the vertical position so that the fluid falls to the true spinal fluid pressure. If this maneuver fails to increase the flow, the needle is not properly placed or a nerve root has blocked the needle. Fluid should not be aspirated because this may trap and damage nerve roots. If the initial CSF pressure is high (more than 180 mm H2O), the physician should try to let it fall without removing fluid; the patient should be encouraged to relax, and their neck and legs should, if necessary, be unflexed (thus reducing venous pressure). S/he should not be asked to hyperventilate (this causes cerebral vasoconstriction and lowers even truly high CSF pressures). S/he should be reassured, made comfortable, and allowed to rest for one minute (not much more)."

Open Document Tumors or Lesions to the Hypothalamus Patient The Hypothalamus is a small area near the base of the brain just ventral to the thalamus. It has widespread connections with the rest of the forebrain and the midbrain. Partly through nerves and partly through hypothalamic hormones, the hypothalamus conveys messages to the pituitary gland, altering its release of hormones (Kalat, 2003). Any type of damage to a hypothalamic nucleus, such as tumors or lesions, may lead to abnormalities in one or more motivated behaviors, such as feeding, drinking, temperature regulation, sexual behavior, fighting, or activity level. The exact cause of hypothalamic tumors is not known. It is likely that they result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. In children, most hypothalamic tumors are gliomas. Gliomas are a common type of brain tumor that results from the abnormal growth of glial cells, which are a type of cells that support nerve cells. Gliomas can occur at any age but they are often more aggressive in adults than children. In adults, tumors in the hypothalamus are more likely to be metastatic (resulting form the spread of cancer form another organ to the hypothalamus) than they are when they occur in children."

"text": "\"DEMYELINA TING DISEASES OF THE BRAINJohn R. Hesselink, MD, FACRMR imaging is exquisitely sensitive for detecting brain abnormalities. Particularly in the evaluation of white matter diseases, MR far outperforms any other imaging technique. Lesions that may be quite subtle or even invisible on CT are often clearly seen on the MR scan. The MR signal characteristics of white matter lesions are similar and relatively nonspecific, but other distinguishing features are often present to assist in diagnosis, such as the pattern of the abnormality, location, and enhancement features. The white matter is affected by many disease processes. The primary demyelinating disease is multiple sclerosis, but many other metabolic and inflammatory disorders result in deficient or abnormal myelination. Histologically, myelin abnormalities are either demyelin-ating or dysmyelinating. Demyelination implies destruction of myelin. Dysmyelination refers to defective formation or maintenance of myelin resulting from dysfunction of the oligodendrocytes. Most of the dysmyelinating disorders are caused by metabolic defects that present in infancy."

Parkinson disease (or, simply, Parkinson) is the most common form of Parkinsonism, a group of motor system disorders. It is a slowly progressing, degenerative disease caused by the loss of dopamine-producing brain cells. Dopamine is a substance made in the body that helps with smooth and coordinated muscle movement. Parkinson is usually associated with these symptoms: Tremor or trembling of the arms, jaw, legs, and face Stiffness or rigidity of the limbs and trunk Slowness of movement (bradykinesia)Impaired balance and coordination What causes Parkinson disease? The cause of Parkinson is unknown. Medical experts believe the symptoms are related to a chemical imbalance in the brain caused by brain-cell death. Parkinson is chronic, and symptoms grow worse over time. Although the disease may appear in younger people (even teenagers), it usually affects people in late middle age."

Related to nerve paralysis: sciatic nerve paralysis Paralysis Definition Paralysis is defined as complete loss of strength in an affected limb or muscle group. Description The chain of nerve cells that runs from the brain through the spinal cord out to the muscle is called the motor pathway. Normal muscle function requires intact connections all along thismotor pathway. Damage at any point reduces the brain's ability to control the muscle'smovements. This reduced efficiency causes weakness, also called paresis. Complete loss of communication prevents any willed movement at all. This lack of control is called paralysis. Certain inherited abnormalities in muscle cause periodic paralysis, in which the weaknesscomes and goes. The line between weakness and paralysis is not absolute."

Available from: http://www.jpgmonline.com/text.asp?2003/49/3/272/1148:: Historical Background Adams and Foley first described asterixis in 1949 in patients with advanced hepatic encephalopathy. [ 1] It is a disorder of motor control characterised by brief, arrhythmic interruptions of sustained voluntary muscle contraction usually observed due to brief lapse of posture. It manifests as a bilateral flapping tremor affecting various parts of the body independently and occurs at a rate of 3-5 Hz during active maintenance of posture. Except for the facial muscles, the tremors occur in an asymmetric fashion on either side of the body. Leavitt & Tyler [2] took the next step when they defined the electromyographic (EMG) abnormality associated with what they called metabolic tremor in hepatic encephalopathy. As with asterixis, they found brief irregular pauses or reductions in ongoing tonic EMG activity in patients with metabolic tremor. Later, Young and Shahani [3] were the first to describe unilateral asterixis and they classified the involuntary movements as a form of “mini-asterixis” and the pauses as negative myoclonus."

More articles from this author: Migraine Latex Allergies Avian Influenza Background Overview Altered states of consciousness include a spectrum of conditions of a normal, paranormal or abnormal nature. This course will present information on the alterations in levels of consciousness that are produced as a result of definitive and usually demonstrable structural abnormalities of the brain. Normal alterations in consciousness such as sleep and dreams will not be discussed nor will paranormal entities such as hypnosis, trances, fugues, etc. The course will also not include a discussion of syncope which, although accompanied by a transient alteration in the level of consciousness, usually is the result of a decrease in blood flow in a variety of situations, but in the presence of a normal brain structure and function. Etiology Altered levels of consciousness ( ALC) are among the most common problems in general medicine. It is estimated that over 5% of admissions to the emergency wards of large municipal hospitals are due to conditions that cause a disorder of consciousness. Altered levels of consciousness include a spectrum of disorders that range from mild confusion to deep coma."

Researchers are exploring way to move drugs that could be theraputic for brain cancer or other CNS disorders past the BBB. In one method, the drug is injected in a concentrated sugar solution. The high osmotic prssure of the sugar solution causes the endotheilal cells of the capillaries to shrink, which opens gaps between thier tight junctions, making the BBB more leaky and allowing the drug to enter the brain tissue. Hydrocephalus Abnormalities in the brain -tumo, inflammations, or developmental malformations - can interfere with the circulation of CSF from the ventricles into the subarachnoid space. When excess CSF accumulates in the ventricles, the CSF pressure rises. Elevated CSF pressure causes a condition called hydrocephalus. The abnormal accumulation of CSF may be due to an obstruction to CSF flow or an abnormal rate of CSF production and/or reabsorption. In a baby whose fontanels have not yet closed, the head bulges due to the increased pressure. If the condition persists, the fluid buildup compresses and damages the delicate nervous tissue."

Individuals 85 years and older represent the fastest growing segment of the United States population. As a result, litigators must pay attention to this growing segment of client. There are special concerns and unique medical considerations present in litigating a TBI in the elderly that are not present themselves in other cases. Some of those considerations are outlined below. THE ADVERSE INFLUENCE OF AGE ON TBI OUTCOMEMany animal and human studies have provided substantial evidence that advanced age is associated with increase mortality and poorer outcome after TBI. It is believed that neuroplasticity, or the ability of the brain to heal itself and reroute brain function around injured portions of the brain, decreases with age. Atrophy of the brain increases with age and this in turn increases the distance between the brain and the skull, making dural vessels more vulnerable with shearing damage (as we saw in the case of Natasha Richardson). ( Cummings and Benson, 1992). In a comparison of patients older than and younger than 55 years old, matched for injury severity and gender, it was observed that the older patient group had a significantly longer mean linking the rehabilitation stay, higher total rehab charges and slower rate of improvement on functional measures.

Description The chain of nerve cells that runs from the brain through the spinal cord out to the muscle is called the motor pathway. Normal muscle function requires intact connections all along thismotor pathway. Damage at any point reduces the brain's ability to control the muscle'smovements. This reduced efficiency causes weakness, also called paresis. Complete loss of communication prevents any willed movement at all. This lack of control is called paralysis. Certain inherited abnormalities in muscle cause periodic paralysis, in which the weaknesscomes and goes."

"text": "\"Diagnosing Multiple Sclerosis Using the Mc Donald Criteria Rebecca Spain, MD, MSPH -- Portland, ORThe basis of MS diagnosis is by determination of \"\"lesions disseminated in space and time”. In other words, MS plaques occurring in multiple parts of the central nervous system (CNS) and over the course of time. The diagnosis is by clinical criteria with support as necessary from MRI and spinal fluid analysis. The criteria have evolved over time to allow more rapid diagnosis of MS and thus permit earlier treatment of MS. The diagnosis of MS can be challenging, and is focused on excluding MS mimics that have alternative treatments. Given that MS is a clinical diagnosis that can evolve over time, careful follow-up of patients is necessary to confirm that MS, once diagnosed, remains the best possible diagnosis. Diagnostic Criteria Diagnostic criteria have evolved over time from the Schumacher Criteria (1965), to Poser Criteria (1983), and finally to the Mc Donald Criteria (2001). The Mc Donald Criteria were developed by an international panel in association with the National MS Society of America, modified in 2005, and revised again in 2010. The Mc Donald Criteria revisions enable more rapid diagnosis of MS and thus permit earlier treatment of MS. For clinical research trials, the Mc Donald Criteria ensure that those without a definite diagnosis of MS are not enrolled."

I was the Assistant Editor of Science Based Medicine.org for several years. I’ve written hundreds of articles and several books, and I’m known for readable but heavily referenced analysis, with a touch of sass. I am a runner and ultimate player. • more about me • more about Pain Science.com There are two well-recognized broad categories of pain: the common sensical sort (the pain of damage), and the somewhat more exotic kind that comes from damage to the system that reports and interprets damage, the nervous system. It’s the difference between engine trouble and trouble with that light on your dashboard that says there’s engine trouble. More specifically: Nociceptive pain arises from various kinds of trouble in tissues, reported to the brain by the nervous system. 1 This is the type of pain everyone is most familiar with, everything from bee stings and burns and toe stubs to repetitive strain injury, nausea, tumours, and inflammatory arthritis. Nociceptive pain typically changes with movement, position, and load. Neuropathic pain arises from damage to the nervous system itself, central or peripheral, either from disease, injury, or pinching."

"text": "Maculopapular Rashby admin on Oct 15th, 2012 · No Comments on Maculopapular Rash What is maculopapular rash ? It is a kind of skin condition that results in increased reddening of some areas of the skin, later accompanied by development of small lumps. People affected by maculopapular rash may experience the formation of both papules and macules on the skin. The term maculopapular originates from 2 words, i.e. macules meaning tiny, non-elevated, flattened and discolored regions on the skin, and papules meaning small, inflamed bumps or elevations. Medically, the condition is sometimes referred to as HIV rash. Sponsored link Maculopapular rash symptoms The look of maculopapular rash is somewhat similar to skin conditions caused due to some diseases like syphilis, measles and scarlet fever and due to skin eruptions that result from heat rashes. The blotches accompanying maculopapular rash also have an appearance similar to Fifth disease rashes. A majority of the maculopapular rash cases are reddish in color, which may later change into varied colors along with the progression of the disorder into other stages. Hence, the maculopapular rashes are also called Erythematous. Maculopapular rash may affect any section of the body."

Lyme disease can affect the skin, joints, heart, and the nervous system. Lyme disease occurs in phases, with the early phase beginning at the site of the tick bite with an expanding ring of redness. Lyme disease is diagnosed based on the patient's clinical signs of illness and the detection of antibodies to the causative bacteria in the blood. Lyme disease is treated with antibiotics. Quick Guide Lyme Disease Symptoms, Rash, Treatments Lyme Disease Signs & Symptoms Lyme disease is medically described as occurring in three phases, each with distinctive symptoms. The first phase is early localized disease, which occurs three to 30 days after the tick bite that transmitted the infection. This stage is characterized by skin inflammation. The rash that occurs is referred to as erythema migrans. It develops in about 70% of people who get Lyme disease."

In most cases rashes do not indicate a dangerous condition, but in some cases they do. If a child is in good general health and has no other symptoms, you can simply observe the rash for a few days. Many types of rashes will disappear without treatment. If the rash is accompanied by high fever, breathing difficulties, vomiting, or reduced general health (when the child is not acting right), take your child to see a doctor, as it is often difficult to describe rashes over the telephone. One type of rash can have different causes, so let the doctor note what the rash looks like, how widespread it is, how many and how big the marks are, how long the rash has been present, and whether it is itchy.

Lyme disease can affect the skin, joints, heart, and the nervous system. Lyme disease occurs in phases, with the early phase beginning at the site of the tick bite with an expanding ring of redness. Lyme disease is diagnosed based on the patient's clinical signs of illness and the detection of antibodies to the causative bacteria in the blood. Lyme disease is treated with antibiotics. Quick Guide Lyme Disease Symptoms, Rash, Treatments Lyme Disease Signs & Symptoms Lyme disease is medically described as occurring in three phases, each with distinctive symptoms. The first phase is early localized disease, which occurs three to 30 days after the tick bite that transmitted the infection. This stage is characterized by skin inflammation. The rash that occurs is referred to as erythema migrans. It develops in about 70% of people who get Lyme disease."

Blisters can accompany some types of skin rashes and inflammatory conditions, including certain autoimmune diseases. Depending upon the cause of the blisters, blisters may occur singly or in groups. In contrast to abscesses and boils, which are collections of inflammatory fluid found deep in the tissues, blisters are found in the most superficial layer of skin.

Shiel Jr., MD, FACP, FACRRelated Symptoms & Signs Dry Skin Flaky Scalp Rash Itching is a symptom we have all experienced. Nevertheless, itching can be difficult for a person to describe to others. While itching symptoms vary, it typically leads to a peculiarly uncomfortable skin sensation. It may feel as if something is crawling on (or in) your skin. Itching can be diffuse (generalized all over the body) or localized -- all over or confined to a specific spot -- and there are many causes of diffuse and localized itching. Itching symptoms can be associated withrash,dry skin,cracked skin,flaky skin,flaky scalp,skin redness,bumps on the skin,blisters, orspots on the skin. Itching may be most noticeable at night (nocturnal), during the day, or both. When there are itching symptoms, there can be a leathery or scaly texture to the skin depending on the cause. Itching can be caused by toxins on the skin ( contact dermatitis, such as from poison ivy, poison oak, poison sumac, or grass oils), medications, liver disease, kidney disease, insect bites, hives (urticarial), rare forms of skin cancer (mycosis fungoides and T-cell lymphomas ), infections (including chickenpox and fungal infections such as athlete's foot and jock itch ), irritation from clothing, eczema, dermatitis herpetiformis, hemorrhoids, and many other conditions, or it can remain unexplained. Infectious causes of itching include sexually transmitted diseases ( STDs ), parasites (such as scabies, fleas, bedbugs, pinworms, and lice ), and viral rashes."

ALS is often called Lou Gehrig's disease, after the famous baseball player who was diagnosed with it. ALS is a type of motor neuron disease in which nerve cells gradually break down and die. Doctors usually don't know why ALS occurs. Some cases are inherited. ALS often begins with muscle twitching and weakness in a limb, or slurred speech. Eventually, ALS affects control of the muscles needed to move, speak, eat and breathe. There is no cure for ALS, and eventually the disease is fatal. Symptoms Early signs and symptoms of ALS include: Difficulty walking or doing your normal daily activities Tripping and falling Weakness in your leg, feet or ankles Hand weakness or clumsiness Slurred speech or trouble swallowing Muscle cramps and twitching in your arms, shoulders and tongue Difficulty holding your head up or keeping good posture ALS often starts in the hands, feet or limbs, and then spreads to other parts of your body.

There are three different subtypes of prion disease categorized by how the disease is contracted. All differ slightly with regards to typical signs, symptoms and duration of illness. The subtypes are sporadic, genetic and acquired. Sporadic Prion Diseases Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (s CJD) The cause of “classic” or “sporadic” CJD is unknown, which means it occurs in people without any known risk factors or gene mutations.

Any damage to the nerves, either caused by trauma or an underlying condition, can result in lip numbness, medically referred to as paresthesia. Lip numbness can also occur as a result of imbalances of the blood gases oxygen and carbon dioxide.

A transient ischemic attack is characterized by similar symptoms as a stroke, but unlike a stroke, causes no long-term effects. One of the most common symptoms is sudden numbness and weakness that affects one side of the face, including the lips, as well as the arm and leg on that same side, according to Mayo Clinic.com. Other symptoms include slurred speech, difficulty understanding speech, vision loss in one or both eyes, double vision, dizziness and loss of balance. Most transient ischemic attacks serve as a warning sign and indicate an increased risk for a future stroke, so it is important to seek medical care to determine the underlying cause and specific treatment options. Multiple Sclerosis Nerve cells are surrounded by a protective covering called the myelin sheath. In addition to providing protection, the myelin sheath ensures that nerve signals are transmitted quickly and efficiently through the neural network."

It involves the selection of words to be spoken, called semantics, and the formulation of appropriate sentences or phrases, called syntax. Definitions Dysarthria is a speech disorder caused by disturbance of muscular control. Dysphasia (also called aphasia) is an impairment of language. They often co-exist. Strictly speaking, the words anarthria and aphasia mean a total absence of ability to form speech or language but they are often used when dysarthria and dysphasia would be more correct. In particular, dysphasia and aphasia are used interchangeably, with aphasia in more common use."

Prion diseases are a group of conditions that affect the nervous system. The main feature of GSS is a progressive degeneration of the cerebellum (a part of the brain that controls coordination, balance, equilibrium and muscle tone ), as well as different degrees of dementia. Signs and symptoms generally develop between ages 35 and 50 years and may include weakness in the legs, poor reflexes, abnormal sensations, progressive ataxia, cognitive dysfunction, slurred speech, and spasticity. On average, people affected by GSS survive approximately 60 months (range 2 to 10 years) following diagnosis. It is caused by changes ( mutations) in the PRNP gene and inheritance is autosomal dominant . Treatment is based on the signs and symptoms present in each person. [ 1] [2] For information on other prion diseases, please visit GARD's Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and fatal familial insomnia pages. Last updated: 7/11/2016Symptoms Listen Signs and symptoms of Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker disease generally develop between the ages of 35 and 50 years. Affected people may experience: [1] [2] [3]Progressive ataxia, including clumsiness, unsteadiness, and difficulty walking Cognitive dysfunction leading to bradyphrenia (slowness of thought processing) and dementia of different degrees Dysarthria (slurred speech)Nystagmus (abnormal eye movements)Spasticity (rigid muscle tone)Visual disturbances, sometimes leading to blindness Lack of coordination in swallowing Deafness Parkinsonian features (present in some families)."

"text": "Overview Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (a-my-o-TROE-fik LAT-ur-ul skluh-ROE-sis), or ALS, is a progressive nervous system (neurological) disease that destroys nerve cells and causes disability. ALS is often called Lou Gehrig's disease, after the famous baseball player who was diagnosed with it. ALS is a type of motor neuron disease in which nerve cells gradually break down and die. Doctors usually don't know why ALS occurs. Some cases are inherited. ALS often begins with muscle twitching and weakness in a limb, or slurred speech. Eventually, ALS affects control of the muscles needed to move, speak, eat and breathe. There is no cure for ALS, and eventually the disease is fatal. Symptoms Early signs and symptoms of ALS include: Difficulty walking or doing your normal daily activities Tripping and falling Weakness in your leg, feet or ankles Hand weakness or clumsiness Slurred speech or trouble swallowing Muscle cramps and twitching in your arms, shoulders and tongue Difficulty holding your head up or keeping good posture ALS often starts in the hands, feet or limbs, and then spreads to other parts of your body. As the disease advances and nerve cells are destroyed, your muscles progressively weaken."

It is caused by two protozoan parasites that are morphologically similar but cause dramatically different diseases. Parasites That Cause Sleeping Sickness These dangerous parasites are carried by the tsetse fly. East African sleeping sickness is caused by the parasite Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, whereas West African sleeping sickness, also known as Gambian sleeping sickness, is caused by Trypanosoma brucei gambiense. East African sleeping sickness is a severe disease that typically leads to death within weeks or months if not treated. The initial bite leaves a distinctive sore spot called a chancre. Symptoms, which appear one to four weeks after infection, may include swollen lymph nodes, irritability, fever, severe headache, fatigue, muscle and joint pain, and a skin rash. During the second stage of the disease, the parasite crosses the blood-brain barrier and attacks the central nervous system. Neurological complications include slurred speech, confusion, and difficulty with walking. Like East African sleeping sickness, West African (Gambian) sleeping sickness is a severe disease that is deadly if not treated."

"text": "You are Here: Home Page > Condoms > Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Condoms Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Condoms Can condoms provide protection from sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including HIV? Yes. Whether you use latex male condoms or female condoms, they are both very effective in preventing HIV and many other STDs when used the right way every time. Condoms may prevent the spread of other STDs, like the Human Papillomavirus (HPV, genital or venereal warts) or genital herpes, only when the condom covers the infected areas or sores. To find out if you might have an STD, visit your doctor or clinic as soon as you can. Is there a 100% effective way to prevent sexual transmission of HIV and STDs? The only 100% effective way to prevent sexual transmission of HIV and STDs is through abstinence - avoiding all vaginal, anal and oral sex. Using a latex male condom or a female condom can greatly reduce, but not entirely eliminate, the risk of HIV and STD transmission. Abstinence is the only method to completely eliminate the possibility of sexual transmission of HIV or STDs. Do birth control methods other than condoms reduce the risk of STDs including HIV?"

Acne problems, irregular menstrual period and dysmenorrhea are just some problems that birth control pills help to eliminate. These problems are mostly hormonal related, which is what the oral contraceptives contain. Man-made estrogen and progestin hormones work primarily by inhibiting the effects of these hormones in our body. Having the knowledge on how they actually work whether for aesthetic purposes or for birth control, may also protect you from its unlikely effects. How Long Do Birth Control Pills Take to Work? The “pill”, as most often referred to, is a combination of the hormones estrogen and progestin. It’s a very reliable birth control method if used correctly.

"text": "\"Also available in [ PDF] format. Accurate, balanced sex education – including information about contraception and condoms – is a basic human right of youth. Such education helps young people to reduce their risk of potentially negative outcomes, such as unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Such education can also help youth to enhance the quality of their relationships and to develop decision-making skills that will prove invaluable over life. This basic human right is also a core public health principle that receives strong endorsement from mainstream medical associations, public health and educational organizations, and – most important – parents. [ 1,2,3,4,5]Yet, federal policy makers have provided large amounts of funding for abstinence-only education – programs that ignore youth’s basic human right and the fundamental public health principle of accurate, balanced sex education. Abstinence-only programs are geared to prevent teens – and sometimes all unmarried people – from engaging in any sexual activity. Indeed, the federal government has gone so far as to specify that these programs must have, as their “exclusive purpose,” the promotion of abstinence outside of marriage and that they must not, in any way, advocate contraceptive use or discuss contraceptive methods, other than to emphasize their failure rates. Since 1998, over $1.5 billion in state and federal funds has been allocated for these abstinence-only and abstinence-only-until-marriage (hereafter collectively referred to as abstinence-only) education programs. This document explores some of the claims that have been put forward to support federal funding for abstinence-only education rather than for comprehensive sex education The Claim: Research shows that abstinence-only education delays sexual initiation and reduces teen pregnancy."

Your overall health, age, the frequency of sexual intercourse, the number of partners you have, and whether you desire to have children in the future must all be considered before deciding upon a birth control method. The Pill The pill is the first contraceptive that most women think of when considering birth control. Today the pill is available as combined oral contraceptives (COC) which contain both estrogen and progestin or in progestin-only pills (POP). COCs work by suppressing ovulation and may make periods more regular. According to an FDA Consumer report, they also offer a protective effect against pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) as well as ovarian and endometrial cancers. These pills are considered safe for most women, however, women who smoke and are over 35 or who have a significant family history of heart disease should not use oral contraceptives due to an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. Women with a medical history of blood clots or breast or endometrial cancers also should not use combined oral contraceptives. Possible side effects which may subside after a few months include nausea, headache, breast tenderness, weight gain, irregular bleeding, and depression. POPs work by reducing and thickening the cervical mucus to prevent sperm from reaching the egg and by keeping the uterine lining from thickening to prevent implantation of a fertilized egg."

A male condom is a thin sheath that is placed over the user’s erect penis before sexual activity to prevent direct contact of the penis with the partner’s skin, mucosa, and genital secretions. Condoms have been in existence for thousands of years, but have only started to become widely used within the past one hundred years. Timeline11,000 B. C. The first appearance of the condom came around 11,000 B. C. Two caves in France known as Grotte des Combarrelles are known to have paintings on the walls that scientists claim represents condoms. Scientists believe that this was the first evidence of condoms existing.1,000 B. C. In ancient Egypt, historians believed people used a linen sheath around the penis as protection against troublesome insects and tropical diseases. To prevent infection, the Chinese wrapped oiled silk paper around the penis, while the Japanese used leather and tortoiseshell sheaths. During this time period, using materials made from animal parts was very common. The Romans developed condoms made of goats' bladders.1400s In Asia, particularly China and Japan, the first condom to be used was the Glans condom. The Glans condom only covered the head of the penis, and was primarily used as a form of birth control, but was also used to protect against infections. In China, obscure materials such as silk or lamb intestines were used in making the condom."

There are male condoms and female condoms: A male condom is a thin sheath (usually made of latex, a type of rubber) that is worn on the penis.

The male condom, sometimes called a \"\"rubber\"\" or \"\"prophylactic,\"\" is far more commonly used. How Does It Work? Condoms work by keeping semen (the fluid that contains sperm) from entering the vagina. The male condom is placed on a guy's penis when it becomes erect (and before any sexual contact). It is unrolled all the way to the base of the penis while holding the tip of the condom to leave some extra room at the end."

"text": "\"Birth Control In-Depth Report Background Contraceptives are devices, drugs, or methods for preventing pregnancy, either by preventing the fertilization of the female egg by the male sperm or by preventing implantation of the fertilized egg. Contraceptive Options Choosing the appropriate contraceptive is a personal decision. Contraceptive options include: Hormonal contraceptives (oral contraceptives, skin patch, vaginal ring, implant, injection)Intrauterine devices (IUDs), which contain either a hormone or copper Barrier devices with or without spermicides (diaphragm, cervical cap, sponge, condom)Fertility awareness methods (temperature, cervical mucus, calendar, symptothermal)Female sterilization (tubal ligation, Essure)Vasectomy The condom is the only birth control method that provides protection against sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). The pill works in several ways to prevent pregnancy. The pill suppresses ovulation so that an egg is not released from the ovaries, and changes the cervical mucus, causing it to become thicker and making it more difficult for sperm to swim into the womb. The pill also does not allow the lining of the womb to develop enough to receive and nurture a fertilized egg. This method of birth control offers no protection against sexually-transmitted diseases. Determining Effectiveness Contraceptive effectiveness is characterized by \"\"typical use\"\" and \"\"perfect use\"\": Typical use refers to real-life conditions, in which mistakes (such as forgetting to take a birth control pill at the right time) sometimes happen. Perfect use refers to contraceptives that are used correctly each time intercourse occurs. The most effective standard female contraceptives are surgical sterilization, intrauterine devices (IUDs), and the implant."

Bites from other ticks are possible, including from the Hedgehog tick, Ixodes hexagonus, and the Fox or Badger tick, Ixodes canisuga. There are different ticks in other parts of the world and they carry different diseases. If you take your dog abroad, be aware of this and take suitable precautions.

Before establishing a new arming herd, reindeer should always be tested and negative serologically for brucellosis. Brucellosis is a reportable disease in Canada and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) veterinarians require the testing of reindeer prior to importation into Canada and 2 years thereafter for all cervid herds. The major impacts of brucellosis in reindeer are abortion and sterility. Retained placentas, swollen joints, enlarged testicles and abscesses are signs of possible infection. It is believed that brucellosis is primarily spread through contact with infectious uterine discharges following abortion. Abortion in reindeer usually occurs 1 to 2 months before normal calving. Calves may be born alive but are weak and die within a few days. Other calves born to infected females can survive but remain infected as carriers of the disease. Typically, females abort the first calf following infection."

This malady, characterized by extensive hemorrhages, has been responsible for significant epizootics in deer in the northern United States and southern Canada. A similar hemorrhagic disease called bluetongue also occurs throughout the U. S. and Canada. The two diseases are antigenically different. Distribution Since 1890, deer die-offs from diseases which might have been EHD have occurred in various parts of North America. These early die-offs were variously diagnosed as blackleg, blacktongue, bluetongue, mycotic stomatitis or hemorrhagic septicemia or they were undetermined. The causative agents were never confirmed. A review of the case histories, signs and lesions, seasonal occurrence, and lack of a bacterial agent suggests that they might have been EHD. The first occurrence and subsequent identification of EHD occurred in 1955 when several hundred white-tailed deer ( Odocoileus virginianus) succumbed in both New Jersey and in Michigan. It was considered a new disease of deer and the name 'epizootic hemorrhagic disease' was suggested to describe its main clinical and pathological features."

"text": "What is Lyme disease? Lyme disease, also known as Lyme borreliosis, is a bacterial illness that can be transmitted to humans, dogs, and other animals by certain species of ticks. It is caused by the spiral-shaped bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi that is carried inside the tick and then gets into the dog’s or person’s bloodstream through a tick bite. Once in the bloodstream, the bacteria can travel to different parts of the body and cause problems in specific organs or locations, such as joints, as well as overall illness. The ticks that carry Lyme disease are especially likely to be found in tall grasses, thick brush, marshes, and woods—waiting to grab onto your dog when he passes by. A tick can transmit the disease once it has been attached to the dog for 24 to 48 hours. First named when a number of cases occurred in Lyme, Connecticut, in 1975, the disease can be hard to detect and can cause serious, ongoing health problems in both dogs and people. Although Lyme disease can occur nearly anywhere in the U. S., infection risk is low in some regions and high in others. The areas of highest occurrence are the Northeast, the Upper Midwest, and the Pacific coast. The primary carrier of Lyme disease is the blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis), also called the “deer tick” or “bear tick.”"

Although ticks are commonly thought of as insects, they are actually arachnids similar to scorpions, spiders and mites. All ticks have four pairs of legs (eight legs in total) as adults and have no antennae. Adult insects by comparison have three pairs of legs (six legs) and one pair of antennae. Ticks are parasites that feed on the blood of their host, which can be an animal or a human. \"\" Ticks are efficient carriers of disease. \"\" Ticks are efficient carriers of disease because they attach firmly when sucking blood, feed slowly and may go unnoticed for a considerable time while feeding. Ticks take several days to complete feeding. What is the life cycle of the tick? Ticks have four distinct life stages:1."

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection caused by the bite of an infected deer tick. Untreated, the disease can cause a number of health problems. Patients treated with antibiotics in the early stage of the infection usually recover rapidly and completely. Where Is Lyme Disease Found? In the United States, infected ticks can be found in the Northeast, including New York State; in the upper Midwest; and along the Northwest coast. What Are the Symptoms of Lyme Disease? The early symptoms of Lyme disease may be mild and easily missed. If you find a tick attached to your skin, remove the tick with tweezers (see tick removal instructions on page 6), and watch for the symptoms of Lyme disease. In 60-80% of cases the first symptom is a rash, known as erythema migrans, that: Occurs at or near the site of the tick bite."

Let's take a closer look at this disease. What is Lyme Disease? Lyme disease was first discovered in 1975 after a mysterious outbreak of arthritis in children who lived near Lyme, Connecticut. Lyme disease is an infectious disease (a disease caused by an outside agent) that affects the skin first, then the joints, the nervous system and, if untreated, eventually other organs."

The louse flies (Hippoboscidae) are obligate blood-feeding ectoparasites of birds and mammals. Both adult males and females feed on the blood of their host. They are adapted for clinging to and moving through the plumage and pelage of their hosts. Strongly specialized claws help them cling to the hair or feathers of their particular host species. Deer keds have wings when they emerge from their puparium, but lose their wings once they find a host (deer). Figure 1. Dorsal view of a female deer ked, Lipoptena mazamae Rondani.

Flies collect pathogens on their legs and mouths when females lay eggs on decomposing organic matter such as feces, garbage and animal corpses. House flies carry diseases on their legs and the small hairs that cover their bodies. It takes only a matter of seconds for them to transfer these pathogens to food or touched surfaces. Mature house flies also use saliva to liquefy solid food before feeding on it. During this process, they transfer the pathogens first collected by landing on offal. Diseases carried by house flies include typhoid, cholera and dysentery. Other diseases carried by house flies include salmonella, anthrax and tuberculosis.

Do they? BTW I'm not sure if it's still thanks giving... show more Follow 13 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Yes, they do. The habits of flies favor the spread of bacteria and other disease-causing organisms. Flies often feed and lay eggs on garbage, manure and carrion before contaminating human foods and food preparation surfaces by landing on them. When feeding, house flies regurgitate their stomach contents onto food to liquefy it before ingesting it. They also may contaminate food and surfaces by defecating on them.

They are often large and agile in flight, and the females bite animals, including humans, to obtain blood. They prefer to fly in sunlight, avoiding dark and shady areas, and are inactive at night. They are found all over the world except for some islands and the polar regions. Horse-flies are sometimes also referred to as gadflies, though this term is ambiguous and often refers instead to botflies (Oestridae). Adult horse-flies feed on nectar and plant exudates; the males have weak mouthparts and only the females bite animals to obtain enough protein from blood to produce eggs. The mouthparts of females are formed into a stout stabbing organ with two pairs of sharp cutting blades, and a spongelike part used to lap up the blood that flows from the wound.

They also provide protection against bites from fleas, biting flies and other small flying insects. DEET is also safe and is been used for more than forty years world wide and very few cases has been reported for toxic reactions (usually due to gross overuse of the product). Plant-based mosquito repellents are generally less effective compare to DEET-based repellents. When DEET-based mosquito repellents are applied in combination with permethrin-treated clothing, protection against mosquito bites of nearly 100% can be achieved. What is DEETDEET (chemical name N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide) is a colorless liquid that has a faint odor and does not dissolve easily in water. It was first developed by the U. S Army in the year 1946 for protection of soldiers in mosquito infested areas. DEET is designed for direct application to skin to repel mosquitoes and other insects, but they don’t kill them. Repellents containing DEET are available to the public in a variety of liquids, lotions and sprays. Concentrations of DEET in products that are designed for application to skin range from 4% to 100%."

The fact that we exist today means they were able to escape the threat of death. Prior to reliable home construction, humans were exposed to the elements and dangerous animals of all kinds. Now-extinct creatures like wooly mammoths, saber-toothed cats, and giant bears posed a substantial threat to the ancient humans. Early seafaring explorers took on dangerous sharks and whales in the oceans.

Arthropodborne diseases alone were responsible for the loss of 15,576,000 man-days among US Armed Forces during World War II. Today, harmful arthropods represent one of the greatest environmental hazard to soldiers in the field. The chain of infection for arthropodborne diseases involves a pathogenic organism in an infected person or animal (the reservoir), an arthropod to transmit the disease (vector), and a susceptible person (the host). The significance of vector efficiency in disease transmission from reservoir to host is related to many factors. Some of the factors are species-related such as vector reproductive capacity, physiology, morphology, and genetics. Other factors that affect the vector�s ability to transmit disease are physical and related to environmental conditions, such as temperature, moisture, rainfall, p H, weather, geographical and topographical location, photoperiod, and wind. Soldiers in a field environment must break the chain of infection for arthropodborne disease or arthropod injury by limiting arthropod pest exposures. Arthropods (insects, ticks, mites, spiders, scorpions, and the like) make up over 75 percent of all animal species. Less than 1 percent of the 750,000 species of arthropods are potentially dangerous to humans."

Zebras in warmer places have more stripes, a new study shows, which might help answer an age-old question: Why stripes? Related Content Famous Japanese Snow Monkeys Take Baths to Lower Stress Five Baby Bird Cams You Don't Want to Miss This Spring These Mysterious Whales Are the Jazz Musicians Of the Sea The answer probably comes down to keeping zebras cool and fending off disease-causing insects that are more common in hotter climates, researchers reported Tuesday in the journal Royal Society Open Science. All three species of zebra have bold black and white stripes that stand out among more drab-looking African grazers, like buffalo and antelope, especially against a plain savanna background. And standing out would seem to make a zebra more likely to become a lion's lunch. This \"\"stripe riddle\"\" has puzzled scientists, including Darwin, for over a century. There are five main hypotheses for why zebras have the stripes: to repel insects, to provide camouflage through some optical illusion, to confuse predators, to reduce body temperature, or to help the animals recognize each other.

Sponsored link Symptoms of insect bites An insect bite or sting can result in many different symptoms and their appearance is dependent on a number of different factors. Most insect bites can cause the universal signs of pain, redness, swelling, and increased itching of the site affected by the insect bite. Scratching of the affected area can result in breaking of the skin, which can increase the risk to secondary infection. Such infections need to be promptly and effectively treated, else can lead to development of serious conditions such as cellulitis The presence of an allergy towards insect bites and bee stings in the victims can result in severe allergic reactions known as anaphylaxis in them. Such allergic reactions can result in symptoms such as wheezing, hives, breathlessness, unconsciousness and even fatalities within a period of 30 minutes An insect bite on the tongue can result in swelling of the throat leading to respiratory blockage and eventual death In rare cases, thousands of bee stings or insect bites from large hornets have reportedly led to kidney failure and breakdown of the muscles.

They can be treated with various creams, medications and home remedies. Let’s have a look at what these nasty bites can be like and how to treat them. Horseflies are big, hairy flies, they are also called March flies or gadflies. There are more than 3,000 varieties of horseflies found all over the world, three of which are the green-head horsefly, striped horse fly and black horsefly. Horseflies live and breed in marshy or wet areas close to water bodies, and are more active in a warm and sunny climate. They play an important role in the pollination of a variety of flora."

The microscope allows the germs to be seen by making them look a lot bigger. Many of these germs will cause disease in humans and other animals. There are two main types of germs which can cause disease in humans and animals. These are bacteria and viruses. Bacteria are larger than viruses. All animals need warmth, moisture and food in order to live. Germs are no different. They can get all of these things from many places."

We also know that, at least in the lab, cockroaches can transmit those diseases to people. However, cockroaches don’t transmit disease directly into our blood stream through a bite like mosquitoes or ticks, but are what we call passive or “mechanical” disease vectors. In other words, they can transfer bacteria and other disease organisms carried on their bodies to our food or food surfaces. Cockroaches Specialize in Down and Dirty Think about the cockroaches’ lifestyle, where they live, and what they do. Like house flies and blow flies, cockroaches do not hesitate to walk across poop, and even feed on it. They sometimes live inside sewer systems, after all, and they’re only there because they want to be (see Yes, There Are Cockroaches in Your Sewer System! ). You can imagine the variety of human diseases that can be cultured from a city sewer."

Your genes are important, but so are other factors By Jane Anderson | Reviewed by Emmy Ludwig, MDUpdated April 12, 2017Share Pin Email Print Genes, your gluten consumption, and other factors may cause celiac disease. youngvet / Getty Images It's not entirely clear what causes celiac disease. In fact, most researchers believe multiple factors are involved, all of which may be necessary for the condition to develop. Your genes play a strong role—if you don't have one of the two specific genes that have been linked to celiac disease, your odds of developing the condition are very low (although not zero). However, a large minority of the population (some 40%) actually carries one or both of those genes, so genetics isn't the only factor in play here. To develop celiac disease, you must be eating gluten. When you have celiac disease, gluten spurs your immune system to damage your small intestine. Still, gluten is extremely common in Western-style diets (most people eat gluten—and frequently lots of it—several times each day), and still only about 1% of people develop celiac disease. Finally, for you to develop celiac disease, factors in your environment must help to cause it."

The interest in prions and prion diseases was stimulated by the outbreak of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE or Mad Cow Disease) in Europe in the mid-nineteen-nineties. This is a relatively new area of study. What exactly has been discovered about prions and prion diseases? What Are Prions? Prions are proteins found on the plasma membrane (the membrane that surrounds a cell and defines its physical boundary). In mammals, prions are found in the highest concentration in cells of the central nervous system. In mammals and yeast, there are several genes coding for different prions. The function of normal prions (denoted Pr P C) is unknown. Aberrant or mutant prions (denoted Pr P Sc) are thought to be the causative agents of a set of neurological disorders, among which are BSE in cows and Creuzfeldt-Jacob Disease (CJD) in humans."

INTRODUCTIONGene therapy is a novel approach to treating diseases based on modifying the expression of a person’s genes towards a therapeutic goal. Biotechnology has advanced to the point where scientists can alter the DNA; the genetic code that defines us. There are essentially two forms of gene therapy, Somatic Gene Therapy and Germline Therapy. Somatic gene therapy involves the manipulation of gene expression in cells that will affect the patient but will not be inherited. Germline gene therapy involves the modification of germ cells (gametes) that will pass the change on to the next generation. With germline therapy genes could be corrected in the egg or the sperm that is being used to conceive. The child that results would be spared certain genetic problems that might otherwise have occurred. Because every cell descends from the fertilized egg, every cell in the offspring would possess the transplanted gene. This would be a far more effective way of transferring genes than the ones presently used in somatic cell therapies, where genes into the cells of children or adults usually enter only a small portion of the person’s cells and eventually stop functioning."

The findings, scientists indicate, are some of the most compelling ever produced in the search for a therapy for ALS, a debilitating and fatal disease, and were just published in Neurobiology of Disease. \"\" We are shocked at how well this treatment can stop the progression of ALS,\"\" said Joseph Beckman, lead author on this study, a distinguished professor of biochemistry and biophysics in the College of Science at Oregon State University, and principal investigator and holder of the Burgess and Elizabeth Jamieson Chair in OSU's Linus Pauling Institute. In decades of work, no treatment has been discovered for ALS that can do anything but prolong human survival less than a month. The mouse model used in this study is one that scientists believe may more closely resemble the human reaction to this treatment, which consists of a compound called copper-ATSM. It's not yet known if humans will have the same response, but researchers are moving as quickly as possible toward human clinical trials, testing first for safety and then efficacy of the new approach. ALS was identified as a progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disease in the late 1800s, and gained international recognition in 1939 when it was diagnosed in American baseball legend Lou Gehrig. It's known to be caused by the death and deterioration of motor neurons in the spinal cord, which in turn has been linked to mutations in copper, zinc superoxide dismutase. Copper-ATSM is a known compound that helps deliver copper specifically to cells with damaged mitochondria, and reaches the spinal cord where it's needed to treat ALS. This compound has low toxicity, easily penetrates the blood-brain barrier, is already used in human medicine at much lower doses for some purposes, and is well tolerated in laboratory animals at far higher levels."

By Remy Melina | November 16, 2010 05:32pm ETMOREFrom formulating new cancer drugs to testing dietary supplements, mice and rats play a critical role in developing new medical wonders. In fact, 95 percent of all lab animals are mice and rats, according to the Foundation for Biomedical Research (FBR). Scientists and researchers rely on mice and rats for several reasons. One is convenience: rodents are small, easily housed and maintained, and adapt well to new surroundings. They also reproduce quickly and have a short lifespan of two to three years, so several generations of mice can be observed in a relatively short period of time. Mice and rats are also relatively inexpensive and can be bought in large quantities from commercial producers that breed rodents specifically for research. The rodents are also generally mild-tempered and docile, making them easy for researchers to handle, although some types of mice and rats can be more difficult to restrain than others. Most of the mice and rats used in medical trials are inbred so that, other than sex differences, they are almost identical genetically. This helps make the results of medical trials more uniform, according to the National Human Genome Research Institute."

Heredity and variations are controlled by genes —what they are, what they do, and how they work. Genes inside the nucleus of a cell are strung together in such a way that the sequence carries information: that information determines how living organismsinherit various features ( phenotypic traits ). For example, offspring produced by sexual reproduction usually look similar to each of their parents because they have inherited some of each of their parents' genes. Genetics identifies which features are inherited, and explains how these features pass from generation to generation. In addition to inheritance, genetics studies how genes are turned on and off to control what substances are made in a cell— gene expression; and how a cell divides— mitosis or meiosis. Some phenotypic traits can be seen, such as eye color while others can only be detected, such as blood type or intelligence. Traits determined by genes can be modified by the animal's surroundings (environment): for example, the general design of a tiger's stripes is inherited, but the specific stripe pattern is determined by the tiger's surroundings."

Aa Aa Aa Introduction How do the natural ends of chromosomes — called telomeres — differ from chromosome ends generated at the site of a chromosomal break? Unlike broken chromosome ends, telomeres have a distinct capacity to avoid fusing with each other. They are like chromosomal caps that cannot recombine the way that broken ends often do. At the molecular level, telomeres are the solution to avoiding the loss of genetic information that would otherwise occur because of the end-replication problem faced by linear chromosomes in eukaryotic cells. Telomeres are built of hundreds of copies of a six-base-pair repeat that acts as a platform for telomerase, an enzyme specific to these special chromosomal caps. Telomerase picks up where DNA polymerase leaves off and uses its own built-in RNA primer to extend the 3′ end of the DNA template strand, creating this special cap."

"text": "Mouse Diseases According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), mice spread numerous diseases worldwide. The diseases are spread to humans directly: through contact with mice feces, saliva or urine, mouse bites and mere contact. Mouse diseases, however, can also be spread indirectly: ticks, fleas and mites that have fed, at some point, on the infected mouse and then transmit that infection to humans. Diseases That Mice Can Transmit Hantavirus Hantavirus is a life-threatening disease transmitted by rodents, particularly deer mice. The virus is found in rodent urine and feces, but it does not make the host animal sick. It is believed that humans can become sick if they come in contact with contaminated dust from mice nests or droppings. However, hantavirus is not spread from humans to humans. As of November 1, 2012, there were 10 confirmed cases of hantavirus in Yosemite National Park. Three of the confirmed cases were fatal. The early symptoms of the disease are: chills, muscle aches and fever."

"text": "How to deter mice and rats from your home Mice and rats are not pests you want to see around the home, here's how you can put them off stopping by. Even if you have good standards of hygiene and proofing, infestations sometimes occur. If mice or rats have entered your home and are causing a problem, it will be necessary to remove them. It’s also worth putting preventative measures in place otherwise the underlying causes of an infestation will remain. Chances are that if there's nothing for mice or rats to eat in and around your home, they'll move on to greener pastures by themselves. How to get rid of/deter mice and rats Whilst some councils offer a free service, there is generally a fee for pest control. A discount may be offered to those on a low income. You will need to make contact with the Environmental Health Department of your local council to report the problem and find out what applies in your area. Telltale signs of mice or rats include small black droppings near food, scratching noises, signs of gnawing and sometimes a strong musky odour. If you suspect a problem, identify where the mice or rats are living and feeding, as well as the routes they take between these areas (look for holes, droppings and footprints)."

The New Haven, CT, researchers at the Yale School of Medicine say the histamine effect \"\"is a cause of the tics and other abnormalities of Tourette syndrome.\"\" Tics are repetitive movements and vocal sounds, and they are unwanted and involuntary - they cannot be controlled. Publishing their research on mice in the journal Neuron, the authors raise the question of investigating treatment of Tourette syndrome by drugs that target histamine receptors in the brain. Drugs with such a mode of action are already being explored by pharmaceutical companies for the treatment of separate brain disorders, schizophrenia and ADHD . Information from the national gene database about histamine describes the chemical's role - it is a messenger molecule released by nerves, among other functions. Current neurological drugs under investigation target a certain gene-encoded histamine receptor known as the histamine H3 receptor. Christopher Pittenger, of the Yale Child Study Center and associate professor of psychiatry and psychology, says of his particular study on histamine genetics:\"\" These findings give us a new window into what's going on in the brain in people with Tourette. That's likely to lead us to new treatments. \"\" Histamine also has an important role in inflammation, which is why antihistamines work to reduce allergy symptoms."

Researchers are just beginning to use genetic technology to unravel the genomic contributions to these different phenotypes, and as they do so, they are also discovering a variety of other potential applications for this technology. For instance, ongoing advances make it increasingly likely that scientists will someday be able to genetically engineer humans to possess certain desired traits. Of course, the possibility of human genetic engineering raises numerous ethical and legal questions. Although such questions rarely have clear and definite answers, the expertise and research of bioethicists, sociologists, anthropologists, and other social scientists can inform us about how different individuals, cultures, and religions view the ethical boundaries for the uses of genomics. Moreover, such insights can assist in the development of guidelines and policies. Testing for Traits Unrelated to Disease Much of what we currently know about the ramifications of genetic self-knowledge comes from testing for diseases. Once disease genes were identified, it became much easier to make a molecular or cytogenetic diagnosis for many genetic conditions. Diagnostic testing supplies the technical ability to test presymptomatic, at-risk individuals and/or carriers to determine whether they will develop a specific condition. This sort of testing is a particularly attractive choice for individuals who are at risk for diseases that have available preventative measures or treatments, as well as people who might carry genes that have significant reproductive recurrence risks."

Mice as Models of Human Disease ES Cells & Chimeric Mice Transgenic Mice Gene Targeting Knockins Knockouts Conditional Gene Modifications Glossary of Terms Additional Reading Mice as Models of Human Disease Classic genetic analyses are performed by observing a phenotype, designing the necessary cross-pollinations or matings, and using the resulting population to perform statistically significant experiments to find the mutation and to understand the function of the altered gene. Inherited human diseases provide researchers with many phenotypes, and although the human is the mammal we are generally most interested in learning more about, it is also the one animal we cannot use for genetic experiments for obvious ethical reasons. Mice naturally develop conditions that mimic human disease, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer and diabetes, and the inbred laboratory mouse has therefore been used as a model organism to study inherited human diseases for nearly a century. Lathrop and Loeb (1916) published the effects of hormones on the development of tumors in mice in 1916, and the mouse has remained as a favorite model for human disease because it has a relatively low cost of maintenance and a generation time that measures only nine weeks. Developments in molecular biology and stem cell biology over the last 20 years have allowed researchers to create custom-made mice through gene targeting in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. Site-directed mutagenesis in embryonic stem cells and the phenotypic characterization of the corresponding knockout and/or knockin mouse, allows researchers to study gene function as it relates to the entire organism. Now, certain diseases that afflict humans but normally do not strike mice, such as cystic fibrosis ( Snouwaert et al.,"

From Mickey Mouse to Mighty Mouse, mice are often portrayed as friendly characters in cartoons and movies. However, in reality, mice poise a serious threat to humans as they can potentially carry a wide variety of diseases. Mice can spread disease a number of different ways. Diseases can be passed on to humans from mice directly through contact with mice (including bites), through the aerosolized particles in their urine/droppings/saliva, and by eating food or drinking water contaminated by mice. Mice can also spread diseases indirectly through the bite of an infected insect such as a tick or flea that feed on an infected rodent. Some diseases that can be spread indirectly by mice, include Colorado Tick Fever, Lyme Disease and Babesiosis. If you believe you have contracted a disease from rodents, seek medical assistance immediately. Below we have listed some of the diseases spread by mice in the U. S.

Here’s why. Mice and other rodents carry a number of diseases and bacteria, including, but not limited to, hantavirus, lassa fever, leptospirosis, and plague. You don’t have to come in direct contact with a mouse to get sick; eating or drinking anything that’s contaminated with mouse urine or feces puts you at risk. Aside from spreading illness, rodents have a remarkable ability to chew through all sorts of materials. From drywall to insulation, these little critters can cause some serious damage to your home. In fact, a mouse infestation may even increase the chances of house fire since they’re capable of chewing through wires. With all this in mind, a mouse problem is not something you should ignore."

But what is the best system to use? When studying human genes, researchers typically employ biological systems that approximate these genes and their functions as closely as possible. In particular, researchers often turn to mice because of all the various model organisms most commonly used in the lab (e.g. fruit flies and yeast), mice have the genome that most closely resembles that of humans. Consequently, manipulation of genes within the mouse genome has proven an effective method for learning about human gene functioning. Indeed, experimentally removing or altering certain genes within a mouse allows for the examination of a biological system with specific gene alterations. What can mice reveal about human gene function? On the outside, humans and mice look nothing alike. However, human and mouse chromosomes share many of the same genes.

Joseph Nadeau is trying to find out what accounts for the rest.by Stephen S. Hall December 21, 20105What we know about the fundamental laws of inheritance began to take shape in a monastery garden in Moravia in the middle of the 19th century, when Gregor Mendel patiently cross-bred pea plants over the course of several years, separated the progeny according to their distinct traits, and figured out the mathematical foundations of modern genetics. Since the rediscovery of Mendel’s work a century ago, the vocabulary of Mendelian inheritance—dominant genes, recessive genes, and ultimately our own era’s notion of disease genes—has colored every biological conversation about genetics. The message boils down to a single premise: your unique mix of physiological traits and disease risks (collectively known as your phenotype) can be read in the precise sequence of chemical bases, or letters, in your DNA (your genotype). Something’s missing: Geneticist Joseph Nadeau has been finding examples of what he calls “funky” genetic effects that could help explain the mystery of “missing heritability. ”But what if—except in the cases of some rare single-gene disorders like Tay-Sachs disease—the premise ignores a significant portion of inheritance? What if the DNA sequence of an individual explains only part of the story of his or her inherited diseases and traits, and we need to know the DNA sequences of parents and perhaps even grandparents to understand what is truly going on? Before the Human Genome Project and the era of widespread DNA sequencing, those questions would have seemed ridiculous to researchers convinced they knew better. But modern genomics has run into a Mendelian wall. This story is part of our January/February 2011 Issue See the rest of the issue Subscribe Large-scale genomic studies over the past five years or so have mainly failed to turn up common genes that play a major role in complex human maladies."

But as is always the case with anything that sounds too good to be true, there’s a downside – and in this case, it’s eating very little on the days in between. Nevertheless, some scientists believe that alternate day fasting doesn’t just help us lose weight. It may also make us healthier, reducing our risk of health problems such as heart disease and cancer, and easing the symptoms of conditions such as asthma. Supporters of this fasting diet even say it can help us live longer. One of the most popular diet books based on the idea of intermittent feasting and fasting is The Alternate-Day Diet, written by plastic surgeon Dr James Johnson. Here’s the lowdown…What is The Alternate-Day Diet? In a nutshell, this diet involves alternate day fasting, eating very little on one day followed by eating what you’d normally have the next day. Isn’t that just another way to reduce calories overall?"

"text": "Rat Diseases Wild rats are widely recognized the world over as carriers of disease. Most famously, the black rat has long been condemned as being responsible for the catastrophic outbreak of bubonic plague in the 14th Century. It is true that the black rat did host a species of rat flea that harbored the Yersinia pestis bacteria that causes plague. There were, however other factors involved in the “perfect storm” that was the plague pandemic which helped make it so deadly, a set of circumstances that is unlikely to be seen again. As frightening as bubonic plague is, in our modern age of antibiotics it is no longer the certain death sentence it once was. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) of the United States has identified more than ten illnesses and diseases that affect humans and which are spread by rodents. The rodent’s taxonomic family is vast, and not all of these diseases are primarily associated only with the two true rat species rattus rattus (black rat) and rattus norvegicus (brown rat). Various serious diseases can be spread via wild mice, rabbits and even domesticated hamsters as well as many other members of the rodent family. Some of these are commonly referred to as rats, but are in fact different species altogether. Whether with cause or not, the rat has been singled out as the primary culprit and the two major species have long been condemned as dangerous pest animals."

Some damage from mice, rats and other mammals will be cosmetic, but when animals chew through electrical system wiring or nest in key mechanical areas, the damage may get in the way of a vehicle’s safe operation. A rodent infestation also places you at risk for diseases including the Hantavirus. Carried by several rodents, including the deer mouse, white-footed mouse, rice rat and cotton rat in North America, the Hantavirus causes Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome in humans. The Hantavirus is often found in rodent droppings or nests. This rare disease is fatal in about 50 percent of cases. Symptoms include fever, muscle aches and fatigue and appear one to five weeks after exposure. Tips to prevent rodent damage to your vehicle To avoid the risks of disease and vehicle damage, learn how to help keep mice out of cars. Among the most effective methods: Avoid parking or storing cars or trucks in areas with rodent problems, especially wooded areas or tall grass. Instead park or store your car on gravel or pavement —placing a bucket of mothballs under it or sprinkling fox urine powder around it might help, too."

Both rats and mice can be equally destructive, but mice are usually a more mild and sanitary infestation than a rat issue, though most rodents carry diseases. Rats will leave obvious signs of their territory; grease marks around entry points and fecal matter along set pathways will be telltale signs. Since rats are significantly larger than mice, their droppings are also larger. Both species have oblong droppings, though the rat’s indiscriminate diet can lead to loose stool or discoloration. Mouse stool rarely is larger than a grain of rice. Anything larger is likely that of a rat."

Rodents play a significant role in the transmission of many disease-causing pathogens to humans. In fact, rodents are thought to be responsible for more deaths than all the wars over the last 1,000 years. Parasites Rodents can also carry several parasites and diseases at the same time. Rodents are reservoirs for many diseases including those carried by ectoparasites such as fleas, ticks, lice and mites. Research has shown that rats can harbor multiple infectious parasites at one time. One study found parasites that had rarely or never previously been investigated in wild rats (eg Cryptosporidium, Pasteurella, Listeria, Yersinia, Coxiella and Hantavirus ), showing that the threat to human health is greater than previously thought. Allergens and Asthma An infestation of mice or rats also means the introduction of allergens. A protein found within their urine has been reported to trigger asthma and closely-related allergic conditions in susceptible people. The residue from rodent urine can easily spread all over a home, with the highest concentrations usually in kitchens, and lead to asthma attacks that have the potential of being quite serious."

Mc Lean Chief, Vertebrate Ecology Section Medical Entomology & Ecology Branch Division of Vector-borne Infectious Diseases National Center for Infectious Diseases Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Fort Collins, Colorado 80522INTRODUCTIONDiseases of wildlife can cause significant illness and death to individual animals and can significantly affect wildlife populations. Wildlife species can also serve as natural hosts for certain diseases that affect humans (zoonoses). The disease agents or parasites that cause these zoonotic diseases can be contracted from wildlife directly by bites or contamination, or indirectly through the bite of arthropod vectors such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas, and mites that have previously fed on an infected animal. These zoonotic diseases are primarily diseases acquired within a specific locality, and secondarily, diseases of occupation and avocation. Biologists, field assistants, hunters, and other individuals who work directly with wildlife have an increased risk of acquiring these diseases directly from animal hosts or their ectoparasites. Plague, tularemia, and leptospirosis have been acquired in the handling and skinning of rodents, rabbits, and carnivores. Humans have usually acquired diseases like Colorado tick fever, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and Lyme disease because they have spent time in optimal habitats of disease vectors and hosts. Therefore, some general precautions should be taken to reduce risks of exposure and prevent infection. GENERAL PRECAUTIONSUse extreme caution when approaching or handling a wild animal that looks sick or abnormal to guard against those diseases contracted directly from wildlife. Procedures for basic personal hygiene and cleanliness of equipment are important for any activity but become a matter of major health concern when handling animals or their products that could be infected with disease agents."

"text": "\"Introduction This article is derived from an unpublished report on ticks and tick-borne diseases on National Guard bases in Missouri (Barnhart 1999). It may be useful as an introduction to the topic and as a source of references to more authoritative literature. Tick bites are a considerable nuisance, particularly in persons who develop an allergic reaction. In these persons, the area of the bite may become a weeping sore that itches intensely, takes days or weeks to subside, and which can become a site of secondary infection. However, the nuisance factor of tick bites (and similar effects from bites of chigger mites) is minor compared to the threat of tick-borne disease. In Missouri, three species of ticks are vectors of at least four serious human diseases , two of which are \"\"emerging\"\" diseases that have only been discovered within the past 10-20 years. The four tick-borne diseases are 1) borreliosis (including Lyme disease and related conditions), 2) Rocky Mountain spotted fever, 3) ehrlichiosis , and 4) tularemia, which is also known as \"\"rabbit fever\"\". Considering all of these diseases together, over 100 cases of tick-borne illness are officially reported each year in Missouri (Satalowich 1997). However, it is likely that many more cases of these diseases go undiagnosed or unreported. Two of the diseases, borreliosis and ehrlichiosis, have only been identified and widely recognized within the past decade or two, and serological studies in some cases suggest that surprisingly high numbers of persons have previously been exposed to the disease organisms (see below)."

"text": "Print Overview Tularemia is a rare infectious disease that typically attacks the skin, eyes, lymph nodes and lungs. Tularemia — also called rabbit fever or deer fly fever — is caused by the bacterium Francisella tularensis. The disease mainly affects mammals, especially rodents, rabbits and hares, although it can also infect birds, sheep, and domestic animals, such as dogs, cats and hamsters. Tularemia spreads to humans through several routes, including insect bites and direct exposure to an infected animal. Highly contagious and potentially fatal, tularemia usually can be treated effectively with specific antibiotics if diagnosed early. Symptoms Most people exposed to tularemia who become sick generally do so within three to five days, although it can take as long as 14 days. Several types of tularemia exist, and which type you get depends on how and where the bacteria enter the body. Each type of tularemia has its own set of symptoms. Ulceroglandular tularemia This is the most common form of the disease. Signs and symptoms include: A skin ulcer that forms at the site of infection — usually an insect or animal bite Swollen and painful lymph glands Fever Chills Headache Exhaustion Glandular tularemia People with glandular tularemia have the same signs and symptoms of ulceroglandular tularemia, but without skin ulcers."

Most people think ticks are a kind of insect. They’re not! Technically, they’re classified as arthropods and, more specifically, as acarines, which place them in the same group of “bugs” as spiders and mites. Practically, however, what really defines ticks is that they are obligate blood feeders (blood is all they feed on). A rather special feature of most ticks is that they typically stay attached to their host for days or a week to complete feeding (in contrast, mosquitoes are quick-in, quick-out blood feeders). Ticks also carry a wide variety of disease-causing germs, and they transmit these agents while blood feeding. Typically, different species of human-biting ticks are associated with specific disease-causing pathogens."

One historian considers the \"\"first cattle on the North American continent\"\" to be the first breed that adapted to their new environment and spread through vast areas of the country. Another believes the term \"\"first cattle\"\" should be reserved for the first cattle to set foot on our shores, even if they died off within several years.

Males of the species have white lines or streaks around the edges of the top of their body, but these markings are not as noticeable as the markings on the female. Often, lone star ticks are mistaken for blacklegged ticks, one of two tick vectors of Lyme disease. However, lone star ticks are not known to transmit Lyme disease. How Did I Get Lone Star Ticks? The lone star tick feeds on the blood of humans and mammals such as white-tailed deer, horses, cattle, dogs, skunks, squirrels, raccoons and migratory birds, so these animals often bring ticks into yards or perhaps into a person’s home if a tick infested dog or other pet comes inside. Also, raccoons, stray cats or opossums can cause tick problems in a home’s crawl space.

Fleas are small insects about 1-2 mm in length. Adult fleas live in the coat and bedding of dogs, cats and other animals and feed on their blood. The female adult lays eggs (up to 500 per flea per day!) which roll off the animal into the environment, and then hatch into larvae. The larvae burrow into carpet or soft furnishings, or into any small crevices, then form a sticky cocoon and enter the pupae stage. The pupae can stay in this state for up to two years. The adult flea will only emerge once it senses that there is a suitable host nearby (using signals such as vibration and carbon dioxide levels). The new adult flea then uses its powerful legs to jump onto the passing animal and start the cycle all over again.2."

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection caused by the bite of an infected deer tick. Untreated, the disease can cause a number of health problems. Patients treated with antibiotics in the early stage of the infection usually recover rapidly and completely. Where Is Lyme Disease Found? In the United States, infected ticks can be found in the Northeast, including New York State; in the upper Midwest; and along the Northwest coast. What Are the Symptoms of Lyme Disease? The early symptoms of Lyme disease may be mild and easily missed. If you find a tick attached to your skin, remove the tick with tweezers (see tick removal instructions on page 6), and watch for the symptoms of Lyme disease. In 60-80% of cases the first symptom is a rash, known as erythema migrans, that: Occurs at or near the site of the tick bite."

This bacterium is carried by certain ticks, and spreads to the host when the tick bites. The bacterium is normally found in small animals such as mice, squirrels, chipmunks, shrews, etc. Lyme disease in humans can have a range of effects from rashes and flu-like symptoms to more serious symptoms including arthritic, cardiac and neurological effects. It can often be effectively treated, especially if detected in the early stages. Lyme disease is an occupational concern for people who work outdoors.

"text": "Home » Dog Conditions Bacterial Infection (Tularemia) in Dogs Francisella tularensis in Dogs Tularemia is a zoonotic bacterial disease that is occasionally seen in dogs. It is associated with multiple animal species, including humans, and can be acquired from through contact with infected animals. Also commonly know as rabbit fever for its mode of transmission, even while it can infect several types of animals and be transmitted via any infected animal, as such, the bacteria can also be acquired by ingestion of contaminated water, or through contact with infected soil, where the organism can remain in an infectious state for up to several months. Infection is often caused by ingestion of an infected mammals' tissue, such as when a dog hunts a small animal, bird or reptile, through water, or by tick, mite, flea or mosquito bite -- all of which can carry and transmit the bacteria. The bacterium may also infect a dog through its skin, or by entering its airways, eyes or gastrointestinal system. Tularemia is found throughout much of the world, including continental Europe, Japan and China, and in the Soviet Union. In the United States, it is most common in Arkansas and Missouri, though it can be found in most parts of the U. S. It also tends to have higher seasonal incidence, with May through August being a time of increased risk. An increase is also seen during the winter rabbit hunting season, in areas where this is a common practice. One of the most common vectors of communication of the F. tularensis bacterium is the tick, which includes the American dog tick, the Lone Star tick, and the Rocky Mountain wood tick, along with other types of ticks. Symptoms and Types Sudden onset of fever Lethargy Dehydration Lack of appetite (anorexia)Enlargement of the lymph nodes Tender abdomen Enlargement of spleen or liver White patches or ulcers on the tongue Jaundice – may be indicated by yellow eyes Causes Bacterial infection ( Francisella)Contact with an infected source Diagnosis You will need to give your veterinarian a thorough history of your dog's health and recent activities, including a recent history of boardings, outings, trips, tick bites, and experiences with other animals or with pests."

The disease causes symptoms such as joint inflammation (polyarthritis). The bitten dog limb is the first to show symptoms such as as lameness or limping. Laboratory SNAP or ELISA tests are used to see if a dog has been exposed. Dogs that test positive, but show no symptoms, are not treated for the condition since most dogs remain asymptomatic. 95% of exposed dogs do not show any dog lyme disease symptoms.

"text": "There’s a lot of concerning news out there about tick-borne diseases like Lyme disease that cause fatigue, muscle pain, and fever. If they aren’t treated promptly, they can sometimes cause serious, chronic health issues. So if you are suffering from fatigue and you don’t know why, it’s worth considering whether the culprit could be Lyme or something like it. What causes Lyme disease? Black-legged ticks, also known as “deer ticks,” are the prime culprits of carrying Lyme disease, and the infection is most common in the northeastern and north central U. S. The bacterium that causes Lyme disease, Borrelia burgdorferi, is so widespread in parts of the country that healthcare providers will now test for it — and the other, lesser-known tick-borne diseases, some of which have similar symptoms — in patients complaining of fatigue with no other obvious causes. If you have a tick bite…DO: Remove the tick IMMEDIATELY. Use tweezers, not your fingers, and be careful not to crush the tick when you grasp it. Pull straight up with even pressure. Don’t twist or yank, as this may leave the tick’s head or mouth in your skin to cause infection. Clean the wound and your hands immediately with alcohol, iodine or soap and water."

Some are serious and require immediate treatment, while others simply cause discomfort for a few days. Wild Rats vs. Domestic Rats Although they both can carry many types of diseases that are transmitted to humans, wild rats present a greater danger since their environment is not controlled. Domestic rats purchased from a responsible source, who monitors their rats closely and tests for diseases, pose less of a threat than those from an unknown source or in the wild. Either way, it's important to be aware of the potential risk of diseases carried by rats, since the the Humane Society of the United States notes that, aside from mosquitoes, rats carry more diseases that can be transmitted to humans than almost any other living thing. Leptospirosis Leptospirosis, also called Weil's disease, is a bacteria that many rats carry without showing symptoms of infection. Humans become infected when contaminated rat urine or feces comes in contact with mucous membranes. Symptoms in people include headache, fever, vomiting, rash and muscle aches.

"text": "What was the black death? The spread of The Black Death across Europe The Black Death, also known as The Bubonic Plague, was one of the most deadly pandemics in history. It was believed to have started in Asia, where it devastated countries such as China and was believed to have killed 25 million people, or 30% percent of China's population at the time. At that time, China was one of the trade centres of the world and the Chinese would export their resources to the rest of Asia and Europe. The Black Death was caused by a bacteria, Yersina Pestis, which is named after the scientist who isolated the bacteria in 1894. This bacteria usually infected small rodents such as rats. Some of those rats might not get sick, but they could still transfer the illness. The flea Xenopsylla Cheopis has a particular body system that spreads the bacteria extremely quickly. This flea originally inhabited rats in Asia. When trade from Asia was transported to Europe, it carried the rats that were infected by the illness, and also the fleas that transmitted it."

This epidemic now known as the \"\"Black Death\"\" was an outbreak of bubonic plague which had begun somewhere in the heart of Asia and spread westward along trade routes. The consequences to Europe were profound. Besides immeasurable pain and grief, traditional Medieval society was thrown into chaos, economies were fractured, the Church lost status, and art and literature took a turn for the gruesome and bizarre. At the same time, the plague brought benefits as well: modern labor movements, improvements in medicine and a new approach to life. Indeed, much of the Italian Renaissance—even Shakespeare's drama to some extent—is an aftershock of the Black Death. Today its repercussions may be felt in the resistance to AIDS seen in some European populations.

By Remy Melina | November 16, 2010 05:32pm ETMOREFrom formulating new cancer drugs to testing dietary supplements, mice and rats play a critical role in developing new medical wonders. In fact, 95 percent of all lab animals are mice and rats, according to the Foundation for Biomedical Research (FBR). Scientists and researchers rely on mice and rats for several reasons. One is convenience: rodents are small, easily housed and maintained, and adapt well to new surroundings. They also reproduce quickly and have a short lifespan of two to three years, so several generations of mice can be observed in a relatively short period of time. Mice and rats are also relatively inexpensive and can be bought in large quantities from commercial producers that breed rodents specifically for research. The rodents are also generally mild-tempered and docile, making them easy for researchers to handle, although some types of mice and rats can be more difficult to restrain than others. Most of the mice and rats used in medical trials are inbred so that, other than sex differences, they are almost identical genetically. This helps make the results of medical trials more uniform, according to the National Human Genome Research Institute."

The human respiratory system is a series of organs responsible for taking in oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide. The primary organs of the respiratory system are lungs, which carry out this exchange of gases as we breathe. Red blood cells collect the oxygen from the lungs and carry it to the parts of the body where it is needed, according to the American Lung Association. During the process, the red blood cells collect the carbon dioxide and transport it back to the lungs, where it leaves the body when we exhale. The human body needs oxygen to sustain itself. A decrease in oxygen is known as hypoxia and a complete lack of oxygen is known as anoxia, according to the National Institutes of Health. These conditions can be fatal; after about four minutes without oxygen, brain cells begin dying, according to NYU Langone Medical Center, which can lead to brain damage and ultimately death. In humans, the average rate of breathing depends on age.

If you have a problem in your field and you're not sure what it is, go to the Rice Doctor Crop problems can be caused by other living organisms, like rats and fungus, or by non-living factors, such as wind, water, temperature, radiation, and soil acidity. The best control for pests and disease problems is prevention. To limit pest and disease damage: Practice good cleaning of equipment and field between seasons Diseases can be spread between fields or between seasons if you do not take proper precautions. After harvest, be sure to clean the harvesting equipment to prevent the spread of infected plants. Some diseases can live on the stubble between seasons and infect a healthy planted crop. In general, plowing after harvest removes stubble that serves as remaining food and shelter for pests, especially insects. In cases where your field was infested, you should remove all stubble from the previous season (see disease section for more details)."

All but two of the Nobel prizes in medicine awarded over the last one hundred years have depended on animal research, [1] and the list of modern medicines, vaccines, and other treatments, as well as basic science discoveries, is so extensive that it could not be adequately covered in even a huge volume.

But animal research has contributed to understanding these factors and to the development of vaccines and lifesaving treatments. The philosophical debate regarding the benefits and moral costs of animal research has also filled many volumes by ethicists and philosophers. The major arguments against the use of animals in medical research have been explicitly refuted by a few brave scientists, [3] as well as implicitly by the vast majority of the working biomedical science community. My contribution to this discussion is to provide a personal perspective on my decision if, when, and how to use monkeys in research experiments on Parkinson disease. I do not claim to speak for all scientists. Many of them prefer not to speak on this issue because people with strongly held opposing beliefs have been willing to engage in distortion of the facts, violence, and intimidation as a way of advancing their views."

Mycoplasma pulmonis: a commensal species specific organism carried by nearly all pet rats, and which colonizes the luminal surface of the respiratory epithelium. Murine Mycoplasmosis: a disease entity caused by mycoplasma pulmonis, and which is responsible for respiratory and genital infections in pet rats. Clinical Signs Clinical signs vary depending on virulence, and the site of infection. Also, because the course of disease caused by mycoplasma is chronic rather than fulminant signs of illness tend to increase as the rat ages. Any of the following clinical signs may be present: In upper respiratory illness, signs may range from clinically silent to early signs of sneezing, snuffling, squinting, and porphyrin staining (rust colored) around eyes and nose. Inner ear infection may also be seen with signs of head tilt, rolling, and face or ear rubbing. In lower infection as disease advances along the respiratory passages causing bronchiolitis, bronchiectasis and bronchopneumonia, the signs may include rattling moist breath sounds, labored breathing, gasping, chattering, and coughing. Additional signs of illness are: hunched posturing with rough coat, weight loss, and changes in behavior due to illness (e.g. nipping, biting, avoidance). * Note:it is important to mention that either upper respiratory signs and / or lower respiratory signs may be seen in CRD (chronic respiratory disease)involving mycoplasma."

While 68,596 deaths were recorded in the city, the true number was probably over 100,000. Other parts of the country also suffered. The earliest cases of disease occurred in the spring of 1665 in a parish outside the city walls called St Giles-in-the-Fields. The death rate began to rise during the hot summer months and peaked in September when 7,165 Londoners died in one week. Rats carried the fleas that caused the plague. They were attracted by city streets filled with rubbish and waste, especially in the poorest areas. Those who could, including most doctors, lawyers and merchants, fled the city.

Mice can transmit diseases to humans and other animals through biting, droppings, fleas, lice, mites and ticks. Some of the common diseases carried by mice are salmonella, hantavirus, leptospirosis, rat-bite fever and the plague. Salmonella and Hantavirus Salmonella and Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome are spread through contact with mouse droppings, especially when food or water is contaminated by feces. Salmonella symptoms include gastrointestinal pain, vomiting and diarrhea. Hantavirus also can be contracted by breathing in dust contaminated with mice feces, and by bite wounds. Symptoms of Hantavirus include flu-like aches and pains, renal failure and severe respiratory distress. Leptospirosis and Rat-Bite Fever Leptospirosis is bacteria that is spread through mouse urine.

Step 2 - As you find these areas, seal them shut with steel mesh, which rats cannot chew through. Step 3 - Only after the home is entirely sealed shut, go into the attic space and set wooden snap traps. Bait is not important, but location is crucial. Set on rat runways, marked with droppings. Step 4 - Every day, remove trapped rat bodies, and re-set traps. In just 2 or 3 days, all will be caught. SUCCESS - Once you hear no more scurrying noises in the ceiling or walls, you know you've done it! FAILURE - If you still have rats, it means you failed steps 1 & 2. You must find the remaining holes."

"text": "Pets Rodents How are rats and flies harmful to humans?wad diseases do they spread?? i nid this ASAP!Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: rats can have parasites such as fleas, ticks, mites and lice. Rats can spread Salmonella food poisoning, Weils disease (leptospirosis), trichinosis, and other diseases directly through contamination of food and water with their urine and feces (Source: National Park Service, US Dept of the Interior). Unless you are directly handling a wild rat, or you have an infestation *inside* your house, the chances of contracting these parasites or diseases is low. House flies may spread diseases such as conjunctivitis, poliomyelitis, typhoid fever, tuberculosis, anthrax, leprosy, cholera, diarrhea and dysentery. They may serve as intermediate hosts for parasitic tapeworms on poultry or parasitic roundworms on horses. Certain larvae of blow flies, bottle flies, screwworm flies and flesh flies may feed on dead as well as living tissue of mammals, causing blood poisoning and even death, especially in sheep. Stable flies bite painfully, sucking blood from humans and animals. False stable flies do not bite, but spread certain diseases, whereas the little house fly hovers in mid air in the middle of rooms.bubbles · 1 decade ago2 0 Comment A pest is an organism which has characteristics that are regarded by humans as injurious or unwanted.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Gay male blood donor controversy)navigation search The men who have sex with men blood donor controversy is the dispute over prohibitions on donations of blood or tissue for organ transplants from men who have sex with men (MSM), a classification of men who engage (or have engaged in the past) in sex with other men, regardless of whether they identify themselves as bisexual, gay, or otherwise. Advocates for change to the prohibition is frequently addressed in terms of bisexual and gay men. Restrictions on donors are sometimes called \"\"deferrals\"\", since blood donors who are found ineligible may be found eligible at a later date. However, many deferrals are indefinite, meaning that these donations may not be accepted at any point in the future, thus constituting a de facto ban. The restrictions vary from country to country, and in many cases, men are deferred even though they always have protected sex or have not had sex with men for many years. The restrictions affect these men and, in some cases, any female sex partners. They do not otherwise affect other women, including women who have sex with women. The United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA) asserts that the one year deferral window is \"\"supported by the best available scientific evidence\"\". [ 1]Many LGBT organizations view the restrictions on donation as based on homophobia and not based on valid medical concern since donations are rigorously tested to rule out donors that are infected with known viruses such as HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C. They state the deferrals are based on stereotypes. [ 2] Proponents of the lifetime restriction defend it because of the asserted risk of false negative test results [3] and because the MSM population in developed countries tends to have a higher prevalence of HIV/AIDS infection.

Download Interview Transcript Visit the Mercola Video Library Story at-a-glance Iron is essential for life as it transports oxygen in your body, helps regulate cell growth, maintains brain function, metabolism and endocrine function and is involved in energy production and immune function Having either too much or too little iron can have serious repercussions. While iron deficiency is commonly checked for, iron overload is actually far more common a problem, yet is often overlooked or ignored Excess iron accelerates every major disease we know of, and causes the pathologies associated with liver and cardiovascular disease. Fortunately, treatment is easy and inexpensive: Simply donate your blood By Dr. Mercola Iron is essential for human life, as it: 1Forms hemoglobin (the protein in red blood cells), as iron binds to oxygen and provides it to tissues for their metabolic needs Is a key component of various proteins, as well as enzymes that catalyze cellular oxidation reactions Helps regulate cell growth and differentiation Helps maintain your brain function, metabolism and endocrine function Is involved in energy production and immune function Having either too much or too little iron can have serious health consequences and, while iron-deficiency anemia is commonly checked for, many doctors are still seriously misinformed about the dangers of iron overload, which is actually a far more common problem. In fact, most men and postmenopausal women are at risk for iron overload due to inefficient iron excretion, since they do not bleed on a regular basis and blood loss is the primary way to lower excess iron, as the body has no active excretion mechanisms. There's also an inherited disease, hemochromatosis, which causes your body to accumulate excessive and dangerously damaging levels of iron. If left untreated, it can damage your organs and contribute to cancer, heart disease, diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases and many other health problems. The good news is iron overload is easy and inexpensive to treat."

Hepatitis C is a liver disease caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV), which is found in the blood of persons who have this disease. HCV is spread by contact with the blood of an infected person. Who gets hepatitis C? Persons at highest risk for HCV infection include:persons who ever injected illegal drugs, including those who injected once or a few times many years ago,people who had blood transfusions, blood products or organ donations before June 1992, when sensitive tests for HCV were introduced for blood screening, andpersons who received clotting factors made before 1987. Other persons at risk for hepatitis C include:long-term kidney dialysis patients,health care workers after exposures (i.e., needle stick or splashes to the eye) to the blood of an infected person while on the job,infants born to HCV-infected mothers,people with high-risk sexual behavior, multiple partners and sexually transmitted diseases,people who snort cocaine using shared equipment, andpeople who have shared toothbrushes, razors and other personal items with a family member who is HCV-infected. How is the virus spread? Like hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus is spread when blood of an infected person enters the body of a person who is not infected, such as through sharing needles or \"\"works\"\" when shooting drugs or occupational needle stick injury. The risk of sexual transmission has not been thoroughly studied but appears to be low in long-term, monogamous relationships. There is no evidence that the hepatitis C virus can be transmitted by casual contact such as hugging or shaking hands, through foods, by sharing eating utensils or drinking glasses, or by coughing or sneezing."

Anyone who gives blood during emergency are applauded for their selfless act that has the ability to enhance the lives of up to three recipients at a time. But there may be reasons wherein you will be denied of an opportunity to donate blood to their own family during emergencies and the reason is “shocking”. The reason for this is their “ new tattoo ” that can affect the blood donation. The reason for this denial is a precaution against cross-contamination & diseases like hepatitis, HIV etc. For this reason Blood banks recommend waiting of 6 to 12 months to allow the tattoo’s design to properly heal. It is always important to check that the artist uses sealed needles before getting any work done mainly to avoid blood borne diseases which may spread by needles. The blood donated by such people carries the risk of being infection & other diseases like hepatitis B, hepatitis C and in rare cases HIV. Studies have revealed that there are 10-30 per cent chances of transfusion of hepatitis B virus infection through infected needles. And in many of the blood banks, a tattoo is acceptable in blood donation if it was applied by a state-regulated or from licensed tattoo shop using sterile needles and ink that is not reused."

What is a blood transfusion? When your child has a blood transfusion, they are given a blood product to supply the part or parts of blood that they do not have. What are blood products? Blood products are made from the blood of people who give (donate) their blood. These people are called blood donors. Blood Cells and Components The blood donated by a donor is called whole blood. Whole blood is made up of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, all mixed with a pale yellow liquid called plasma. Special processes are used to separate whole blood into its different parts. These parts are called blood products."

Tests are upgraded or replaced with more sensitive technologies as these become available. These tests include: Anti-Trypanosoma cruzi Hepatitis B virus (HBV)Hepatitis C virus (HCV 3.0)Human Immunodeficiency viruses, Types 1 and 2 (HIV 1,2)Human T-Lymphotropic virus (HTLV-I/II)Syphilis (Treponema pallidum)Zika virus Babesia (babesia microti)West Nile virus (WNV)Other Testing Trypanosoma cruzi (anti-T. cruzi) (2007)Chagas disease is a serious, often fatal disease caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. The agent is endemic in the Americas but most commonly occurs in Latin America. The test used for blood donor screening is a chemluminescent immunoassay (Ch LIA) performed on an automated platform (PRISM) for the qualitative detection of antibodies to T. cruzi in human serum or plasma samples. An FDA licensed enzyme strip immunoassay (ESA) is used for confirmatory testing. No approved donor reentry algorithm is yet approved from the Federal Drug Administration. Although T. cruzi may be transmitted to transfusion recipients, to date the Red Cross has not identified any recipients infected by blood components from screened-negative donors, and has not identified any screened-negative donors who subsequently were confirmed positive. All reports of transfusion transmission have been from platelets, or previously (prior to separation of componenets from whole blood) by whole blood from unscreened donors; in total approximately 20 such transmissions are in the scientific literature worldwide. Because donors who test positive have acquired their infection long ago, the Red Cross (and all US blood centers) only test those donors who have not been screened previously."

"text": "Tests we carry out You may have noticed that each time you give a blood donation we also take blood samples. These samples are used to perform a range of screening tests in our laboratories. Most of these tests are mandatory, in other words we must carry them out on every single blood donation, whether this is your first donation or just one of the many you have given over the years. However, there are some additional tests that may need to be done on some donations as necessary. Sometimes the tests cannot be done, for example - if you give an incomplete blood donation or no blood samples are obtained, or if we cannot take a donation because of poor veins or you have low haemoglobin level for blood donation. The tests play a very important role in ensuring that we provide a safe blood supply to patients. We test for your blood group, so that we can select the correct group for the patient. We also test for infections that can be passed from donor to patient via a blood transfusion. The tests are carried out by computer-controlled automated machines which can test many samples both quickly and easily, so helping us to get blood to the hospitals as fast as we can. Any donation that is reactive on any one of the screening tests cannot be used."

Adult deer ticks are about the size of sesame seeds and nymphal (baby) ticks can be the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Reducing exposure to ticks is your best defense against contracting Lyme disease. There are a variety of methods you can use to prevent and control Lyme disease. Avoid Tick Infested Areas Although generally only about 1 percent of all deer ticks are infected with Lyme disease bacteria, in some areas more than half of them harbor the germs. More people with Lyme disease become infected during May through July, when immature ticks are most prevalent. In warm climates, deer ticks thrive and bite during the winter months as well. Deer ticks are most often found in wooded and bushy areas with tall grass and leaf litter, as well as nearby shady grasslands, and are especially common where the two areas merge."

"text": "\"United States Search and Rescue Task Force Lyme Disease Lyme disease is spread by the bite of ticks that are infected with Borreli burgdorferi. On the Pacific Coast, the bacteria are transmitted to humans by the western black-legged tick. For Lyme disease to exist in an area, at least three closely interrelated elements must be present in nature: the Lyme disease bacteria, ticks that can transmit them, and mammals (such as mice and deer) to provide food for the ticks in their various life stages. April through October is usually considered to be the prime tick season, though Lyme disease can be transmitted by a tick at any time of the year. Knowing the complex life cycle of the ticks that transmit Lyme disease is important in understanding the risk of acquiring the disease and in finding ways to prevent it. The life cycle of these ticks requires 2 years to complete. Adult ticks feed and mate on large animals, especially deer, in the fall and early spring. Female ticks then drop off these animals to lay eggs on the ground. By summer, eggs hatch into larvae. Larvae feed on mice and other small mammals and birds in the summer and early fall and then are inactive until the next spring when they molt in nymphs."

"text": "Lyme Disease in Dogs: Recognizing the Signs May 20, 2015What Exactly Is Lyme Disease? Lyme disease, or Borreliosis, is a very infectious disease in dogs that comes from exposure to ticks. It has many dominant symptoms that you can quickly notice in your dog, mainly lameness in the joins. It’s one of the most common tick-transmitted diseases, but despite that, it still only causes symptoms in 5-10% of affected dogs. The ticks get into the dog’s bloodstream through a bite and once in the bloodstream, the bacteria travels to different parts of the body and cause stiffness in specific joints and overall illnesses. When a dog has Lyme disease, it suffers from inflammation in the joints, which means recurring lameness. This is a horrible sensation for dogs to feel and alongside it, they can also suffer from loss of appetite and depression, just to name a few. You don’t want your furry friends to suffer from Lyme disease since it’s a very uncomfortable disease that can escalate into something fast, so it’s good to spot any red flags as early as possible. When not detected on time, complications can arise from Lyme disease such askidney problems, heart diseases, and nervous system failures. These are very rare but Labrador Retriever s, G olden Retriever s, Shetland Sheepdog s, or Bernese Mountain Dogsare unfortunately more at risk for kidney-related problems caused by Lyme disease."

Many ticks do not carry Lyme disease. Even if a tick is infected, it may not transfer the disease to you.

Tomatoes should not be WATERED in the evening, as their leaves staying wet overnight can cause disease. No plants should have their leaves wet deliberately in the evening, especially disease-prone ones like tomatoes, roses, and lilacs. In an emergency, you can safely water plants at their base in the evening; just be careful not to wet their leaves."

"text": "\"Tomato History The tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum) has a legacy of misunderstanding. A member of the nightshade family, tomatoes probably originated in South America. After migrating to Europe when the first explorers returned they were considered poisonous and grown only as ornamentals (or not at all). Thomas Jefferson was one of the first Americans to recognize the culinary possibilities. From that humble origin, Americans now consume an average of 70+ pounds of tomatoes and tomato products each per year. The tomato plant itself is an herbaceous perennial. However, tomatoes are grown as annuals in most of the United States since they do not survive fall frosts. A fruit is the mature reproductive body (ovary) of a plant (a bloom that develops into a fruit and contains seeds). A vegetable is the edible part of a plant such as a root, stem or leaf. Therefore the tomato is technically a fruit even though in 1893 the Supreme Court declared the tomato was indeed a vegetable."

With the cooler climate and short “warm season” in the Pacific Northwest, growing tomatoes can be tricky. In an effort to learn what works best, I have planted my tomatoes with slight variations every year. There has definitely been a lot of trial and error. Below is a list of what has proven to work well for me over the years and a few tips on what NOT to do as well.1. A couple of weeks before I plan on planting my tomatoes, I heat the soil by covering it with plastic. That will start tomatoes off right and give them the soil warmth they love. If it’s a particularly cold year, I might keep my plants inside until it warms up more. That involves up potting the plants and staking them (as pictured below), so it’s an added step and not my preferred method.2. I try to pick good varieties that do well in my area."

A: Quick Answer Yellowing of leaves on a tomato plant can be caused by a number of varying factors.

Continue Reading Keep Learning What are brown spots on tomato leaves? What causes leaf curl in tomato plants? What causes tomato plant leaves to turn yellow? Full Answer To remedy this problem, the first thing to do is to get a soil test. Most garden centers will test soil. If the soil is low in magnesium or nitrogen, or if it is unusually high in potassium, plants may not be getting the nutrients they need, and should be fertilized. If this does not work, or if the plants show other signs of infection, you may need to use an anti-fungal agent (organic ones are best)."

Dear Mike: Our garden was hit with late blight on tomatoes and powdery mildew on squash, gourd, and melons. We ripped out the tomato vines and used neem oil and milk spray on the powdery mildew. My question is about next year's garden. We won't plant tomatoes in the same place, of course. But is there anything else you would recommend to stop the blight and mildew before they get a foothold? Thanks!---Jason in southwest Virginia A. It's always good to grow your tomatoes in a different spot every year, but it has nothing to do with the dreaded late blight that struck so many gardens last season. Rotating tomatoes is primarily done to avoid soil-borne wilts. But rotation of all susceptible plants is recommended for powdery mildew prevention, especially on the vining plants you name. Even more important are sanitation and clean-up. Promptly remove affected plants at the end of the season and remove and destroy any mulches that were near them—those mulches are harboring fungal spores that could well get things going again."

And once you do, you'll never again be satisfied with the mealy supermarket imposters. Fortunately, tomato plants are easy to grow and remarkably productive. Tomatoes are long-season, heat-loving plants that won't tolerate frost, so it's best to set them into the garden as transplants (young plants) after the weather has warmed up in spring. You can purchase tomato transplants, but there's something especially rewarding about starting your own plants indoors. Plus, by growing your own transplants you can choose from among hundreds of tomato varieties that are available as seed but rarely sold as transplants. Quick to germinate and grow, tomato seeds are best sown indoors about six weeks before your average last frost date.

There are many variations in terms of size of leaf and leaf color with various shades of green or green-blue tint. Some leaves are very narrow and are sometimes called dissected because they look like a saw tooth cut them. Potato Leaf usually has fewer cuts or serrations on the leaf edge.

Whether planting your heirloom tomato in the ground or in a pot, starting off with a healthy plant is the best prevention of later diseases that commonly plague all tomato plants. If your seedlings are compact and not leggy, have green leaves, and a short distance between each set of leaves (short internodes), you’re good to go. If somewhere along the line before you’re ready to plant out in the garden your seedlings start to show signs of trouble, treating it right away will often save the health of the plant. First Order of Defense when Starting Tomatoes from Seed: If you are starting your own tomatoes from seed, there are 3 keys to preventing nutritional deficiencies: Use clean potting soil rather than garden soil. You can purchase good garden soil from most stores. Miracle Grow Moisture Control is a good one. If you want to go completely organic with your potting soil, see this post for a formula. If you start your seedlings in a flat with small cells, or a small container, pot up your plants when they have two sets of true leaves.

Climate and Soil Tomatoes like a nice warm area in full sun, and need at least 8 hours of sunlight a day, or they get spindly and produce little mature fruit. They like soil that has a p H of 5.5 - 6.8, is fertile, deep, well-drained, and that is rich in organic matter. If the soil stays soggy where you want to plant, build a raised bed. You want soil that will hold water as evenly as possible because uneven uptake of water can cause all kinds of problems with tomatoes including: flower drop, fruit splitting and blossom-end rot. To help give your tomatoes the best-suited environment you can, till in a good amount of compost or organic matter.

"text": "\"Specialized Nerve Tests: EMG, NCV and SSEPAjay Jawahar MDUpdated 6/2011The spinal cord is the thick, whitish bundle of nerve tissue that extends from the lowest part of the brain down through the spinal column. In humans, spinal nerves branch off from the spinal cord to various parts of the body. There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves which are grouped according to where they leave the spinal column. There are eight pairs of neck (cervical) nerves, 12 pairs of upper back (thoracic) nerves, five pairs of lower back (lumbar) nerves, five pairs of pelvis (sacral) nerves and one pair of tail bone (coccygeal) nerves. It is important for the doctors to detect any abnormality in these nerves' function when dealing with spine problems. The specialized nerve tests like EMG, NCV and SSEP are designed to diagnose any abnormality in the functioning of these nerves. These studies investigate the functioning of the nervous system, while imaging studies like the CT scans or MRI scans look at the structure or anatomy of a particular body part or organ. Rationale The nerves in our bodies are very similar to electric cables. The brain and spinal cord send electrical signals through the nerves to different muscles. The muscles, in turn, have specialized mechanism to properly understand the electrical signals and act accordingly, thus moving different parts of the body."

The test is used to help detect neuromuscular abnormalities. During the test, one or more small needles (also called electrodes) are inserted through the skin into the muscle. The electrical activity picked up by the electrodes is then displayed on an oscilloscope (a monitor that displays electrical activity in the form of waves). An audio-amplifier is used so the activity can be heard. EMG measures the electrical activity of muscle during rest, slight contraction and forceful contraction. Muscle tissue does not normally produce electrical signals during rest. When an electrode is inserted, a brief period of activity can be seen on the oscilloscope, but after that, no signal should be present. After an electrode has been inserted, you may be asked to contract the muscle, for example, by lifting or bending your leg. The action potential (size and shape of the wave) that this creates on the oscilloscope provides information about the ability of the muscle to respond when the nerves are stimulated."

"text": "Home > Health Library Electromyography (EMG)<< Back to Neurological Tests and Procedures Electromyography (EMG) measures muscle response or electrical activity in response to a nerve’s stimulation of the muscle. The test is used to help detect neuromuscular abnormalities. During the test, one or more small needles (also called electrodes) are inserted through the skin into the muscle. The electrical activity picked up by the electrodes is then displayed on an oscilloscope (a monitor that displays electrical activity in the form of waves). An audio-amplifier is used so the activity can be heard. EMG measures the electrical activity of muscle during rest, slight contraction and forceful contraction. Muscle tissue does not normally produce electrical signals during rest. When an electrode is inserted, a brief period of activity can be seen on the oscilloscope, but after that, no signal should be present. After an electrode has been inserted, you may be asked to contract the muscle, for example, by lifting or bending your leg. The action potential (size and shape of the wave) that this creates on the oscilloscope provides information about the ability of the muscle to respond when the nerves are stimulated."

Hain, MD Page last modified: October 8, 2017 Return to testing index See also: o VEMP testing INTRODUCTIONFigure 1: Schematic of the utricle and saccule. These sensory organs in the inner ear primarily respond to linear acceleration such as due to orientation to gravity, but the saccule is also somewhat sensitive to sound. This is the basis of the VEMP test. We will use the terminology \"\"c VEMP\"\" to denote vestibular evoked myogenic potentials elicited from the sternocleidomastoid muscle. When we use the terms \"\"o VEMP\"\" or t VEMP or whatever, the small letter indicates that a muscle other than the SCM is being monitored - - such as ocular or triceps. When we use the unqualified \"\"VEMP\"\", we mean any vestibular evoked myogenic potential (i.e. c VEMP, o VEMP, t VEMP, etc). The purpose of the c VEMP test is to determine if the saccule, one portion of the otoliths, as well the inferior vestibular nerve and central connections, are intact and working normally. Both of the otolith orgais have a slight sound sensitivity and this can be measured. This sensitivity is thought to be a remnant from the otolith organs use as an organ of hearing in lower animals."

These tests may be performed by medical specialists such as clinical neurophysiologists, chiropractors, physiatrists (physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians), and neurologists who subspecialize in electrodiagnostic medicine. In the United States, neurologists and physiatrists receive training in electrodiagnostic medicine (performing needle electromyography and NCS s) as part of residency training and in some cases acquire additional expertise during a fellowship in clinical neurophysiology, electrodiagnostic medicine, or neuromuscular medicine. [ 1] [2] [3] Outside the US, clinical neurophysiologists learn needle EMG and NCS testing. Nerve conduction velocity (NCV) is a common measurement made during this test.

Abdul-Latif Head of Neurology Department, Azal Hospital; Consultant Neurologist, Saudi-German Hospital, Sana’a, Yemen Background and Purposezz Cervical radiculopathy is a pathological process involving a nerve root of the cervical spine. The most common causes of radiculopathy are cervical disc herniation followed by cervical spondylosis. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of dropped shoulder as a cause of lower cervical radiculopathy. Methodszz In total, 132 patients, comprising 105 women (79.5%) and 27 men (20.5%; female : male ratio of 4 : 1) and a mean age of 36.7 years (range 18-58 years), were included in this study. All of the patients presented with shoulder pain, and were investigated by cervical X-ray, cervical magnetic resonance imaging, serum muscle enzymes, and electromyography (EMG)/nerve-con- duction studies. Resultszz Ninety six patients (72.7%) exhibited visually detectable dropped shoulder. The lateral view X-ray of the cervical region revealed eight or more vertebrae. In 119 patients (90.2%), the EMG revealed a mild-to-moderate or moderate denervation patterns in the abductor digiti minimi, first dorsal interosseous, and flexor carpi ulnaris muscles, while the abductor pollicis brevis, ex- tensor carpi radialis, and triceps brachii were denervated in 102 patients (77.3%). All of the pa- Received June 25, 2010 tients had lower cervical paraspinal muscles with a denervation pattern. Revised October 28, 2010 Accepted October 28, 2010 Conclusionszz Three criteria for diagnosing dropped shoulder syndrome have been suggested: pain with consistent anatomical distribution, X-ray abnormalities, and EMG abnormalities."

Click Image to Enlarge A nerve conduction velocity (NCV) test — also called a nerve conduction study (NCS) — measures how fast an electrical impulse moves through your nerve. NCV can identify nerve damage. During the test, your nerve is stimulated, usually with electrode patches attached to your skin. Two electrodes are placed on the skin over your nerve. One electrode stimulates your nerve with a very mild electrical impulse. The other electrode records it. The resulting electrical activity is recorded by another electrode. This is repeated for each nerve being tested. The speed is then calculated by measuring the distance between electrodes and the time it takes for electrical impulses to travel between electrodes."

"text": "July/August 2012Diagnosing Peripheral Neuropathy By David Yeager Aging Well Vol. 5 No. 4 P. 14The diagnosis for older adults can be particularly challenging. Physicians need to become more efficient in their patient workups. Peripheral neuropathy afflicts as many as 8% of people over the age of 55, and the numbers are increasing.1 There are more than 100 known causes, and each type has its own characteristic symptoms, development pattern, and prognosis.2 For this reason, confirming a diagnosis and developing a treatment plan can be highly challenging. To complicate matters, there are only a few diagnostic tests for peripheral neuropathy that are supported by significant research-based evidence, and there is no standard diagnostic protocol. Faced with an indeterminate set of symptoms, physicians may be inclined to order a wide variety of tests, sometimes at great expense and with little clinical benefit. In fact, physicians often forgo less expensive, more reliable tests when attempting to confirm a peripheral neuropathy diagnosis. A University of Michigan Medical School (UMMS) study of 1,031 patients with confirmed neuropathy diagnoses published in the January 23 issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine found that 23.2% of patients received an MRI of the brain or spine, contributing to significant expenditures during the diagnostic phase of neuropathy treatment. More surprisingly, only 1% of patients received inexpensive and far more reliable blood glucose tolerance tests."

Although the worldwide incidence of infant botulism is rare, the majority of cases are diagnosed in the United States. An infant can acquire botulism by ingesting Clostridium botulinum spores, which are found in soil or honey products. The spores germinate into bacteria that colonize the bowel and synthesize toxin. As the toxin is absorbed, it irreversibly binds to acetylcholine receptors on motor nerve terminals at neuromuscular junctions. The infant with botulism becomes progressively weak, hypotonic and hyporeflexic, showing bulbar and spinal nerve abnormalities. Presenting symptoms include constipation, lethargy, a weak cry, poor feeding and dehydration. A high index of suspicion is important for the diagnosis and prompt treatment of infant botulism, because this disease can quickly progress to respiratory failure. Diagnosis is confirmed by isolating the organism or toxin in the stool and finding a classic electromyogram pattern."

How is an EMG performed? A very thin needle (electrode) will be inserted through the skin and into the muscle. Once the electrode is in place, the patient will be asked to either contract their muscles or keep their muscles relaxed. The electrode will detect electrical activity and results will be displayed on a nearby monitor (oscilloscope). A nerve conduction velocity (NCV) test is often performed at the same time as an EMG. An NCV helps to differentiate a nerve disorder from a muscle disorder. How do you prepare for an EMG? Typically, not a lot of preparation is necessary for an EMG."

Also see CPB 0502 - Nerve Conduction Studies Background Surface scanning electromyography (EMG) is different from the conventional needle EMG. Surface scanning EMG employs a scanner with self-contained electrodes and/or surface electrodes that are applied to the skin, and record a specific muscle or group of muscles' electrical potential. There have been attempts to use this technology to diagnose back pain, soft tissue injury, temporomandibular joint dysfunction, nerve root irritation, and scoliosis. Paraspinal EMG is a type of surface scanning EMG that has been used in evaluation of back pain. The rationale for the use of surface scanning EMG in the evaluation of low back pain (LBP) appears to be based on the notion that there is a direct relationship between muscular pain and elevated myoelectrical behaviors."

The axon terminal widens out to form the 'synaptic end bulb', which contains vesicles of acetylcholine. The nerve impulse that reaches this area causing a change in membrane potential, and opens voltage-gaited calcium ion channels. This causes an influx of Ca2+ into the synaptic end bulb, which stimulates the exocytosis of acetylcholine carrying vesicles. ( This means it releases acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft). In the motor end plate there are ligand gated ion channels (meaning they open due to a particular chemical) opens when acetylcholine meets it. This results in an influx of sodum ions, and an out flux of potassium ions, which raises the membrane potential (it depolarises it), which brings it closer to threshold. This creates a graded potential called an end-plate potential. If this is large enough it will stimulate voltage gated ion channels to open in the sarcolemma, and an action potential will propogate throughout the entire muscle fiber."

Clay Christine Economos is Assistant Professor, Tufts University School of Nutrition Science and Policy, Medford, Massachusetts, United States. William D. Clay is Chief, Nutrition Programmes Service, Food and Nutrition Division, FAO, Rome. Citrus fruits have long been valued as part of a nutritious and tasty diet. The flavours provided by citrus are among the most preferred in the world, and it is increasingly evident that citrus not only tastes good, but is also good for people. It is well established that citrus and citrus products are a rich source of vitamins, minerals and dietary fibre (non-starch polysaccharides) that are essential for normal growth and development and overall nutritional well-being. However, it is now beginning to be appreciated that these and other biologically active, non-nutrient compounds found in citrus and other plants (phytochemicals) can also help to reduce the risk of many chronic diseases. Where appropriate, dietary guidelines and recommendations that encourage the consumption of citrus fruit and their products can lead to widespread nutritional benefits across the population. MORE THAN VITAMIN C: THE NUTRIENT CONTENT AND FUNCTIONS OF CITRUSCitrus is most commonly thought of as a good source of vitamin C. However, like most other whole foods, citrus fruits also contain an impressive list of other essential nutrients, including both glycaemic and non-glycaemic carbohydrate (sugars and fibre), potassium, folate, calcium, thiamin, niacin, vitamin B 6, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, riboflavin, pantothenic acid and a variety of phytochemicals. In addition, citrus contains no fat or sodium and, being a plant food, no cholesterol. The average energy value of fresh citrus is also low (see Table), which can be very important for consumers concerned about putting on excess body weight."

There isn’t any evidence for it, however, concluded scientific reviews in 2002 1 and 2008. 2 What’s more, in 2004 the Institute for Medicine (IOM) issued new fluid guidelines stating that average healthy Americans should let thirst be their guide and that even caffeinated beverages like cola, tea and coffee count toward our fluid requirements.

"text": "The importance of potassium is highly underestimated. This mineral is classified as an electrolyte because it’s highly reactive in water. When dissolved in water, it produces positively charged ions. This special property allows it to conduct electricity, which is important for many processes throughout the body. Interestingly, a potassium-rich diet is linked to many powerful health benefits. It may help reduce blood pressure and water retention, protect against stroke and help prevent osteoporosis and kidney stones ( 1, 2, 3, 4 ). This article provides a detailed review of potassium and what it does for your health. What Is Potassium? Potassium is the third most abundant mineral in the body ( 5 ). It helps the body regulate fluid, send nerve signals and regulate muscle contractions."

"text": "Print Page Email Page Top 15 Healthy Foods for People with Kidney Disease By Da Vita ® renal dietitian, Sara Colman, RD, CSR, CDEResearchers are discovering more and more links between chronic diseases, inflammation and “super foods” that may prevent or protect against undesirable fatty acid oxidation, a condition that occurs when the oxygen in your body reacts with fats in your blood and your cells. Oxidation is a normal process for energy production and many chemical reactions in the body, but excessive oxidation of fats and cholesterol creates molecules known as free radicals that can damage your proteins, cell membranes and genes. Heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and other chronic and degenerative conditions have been linked to oxidative damage. However, foods that contain antioxidants can help neutralize free radicals and protect the body. Many of the foods that protect against oxidation are included in the kidney diet and make excellent choices for dialysis patients or people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Eating healthy foods, working with a renal dietitian and following a renal diet made up of kidney-friendly foods is important for people with kidney disease because they experience more inflammation and have a higher risk for cardiovascular disease.1. Red bell peppers1/2 cup serving red bell pepper = 1 mg sodium, 88 mg potassium, 10 mg phosphorus Red bell peppers are low in potassium and high in flavor, but that’s not the only reason they’re perfect for the kidney diet. These tasty vegetables are also an excellent source of vitamin C and vitamin A, as well as vitamin B6, folic acid and fiber. Red bell peppers are good for you because they contain lycopene, an antioxidant that protects against certain cancers. Eat red bell peppers raw with dip as a snack or appetizer, or mix them into tuna or chicken salad."

"text": "What is Potash Fertilizer? By: Roxanne Nichols One of the common fertilizers used in lawn soil is potash. Potash is composed of minerals and salts with potassium in a water-soluble form. As one of the major nutrients that help the soil and produce and sustain plants, benefits of potassium include improving the hardiness of plant tissue, resistance to disease, and protection from the heat and cold. Potash fertilizer is one way that potassium is administered to plants. The amount of potassium or potash in a bag of fertilizer is indicated by the fertilizer analysis number printed on the side. This will generally be three numbers separated by hyphens that indicate the percentage of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium it contains; potassium, which comes in the form of potash in fertilizers, is indicated by the last number. Potash fertilizer can come from several sources, many of which are easy to obtain. One source can be from the ashes of burnt wood. Another source is salt from the sea."

The benefits of watermelon include containing a high amount of lycopene, a certain type of carotenoid that is currently of great interest to researchers because of its known antioxidant capacity and various potential health benefits. Lycopene is responsible for giving many fruits and vegetables, including watermelon, their deep red or pink color. While researchers have always known that tomatoes are a great source of lycopene, recently watermelon has also moved into the spotlight as another wise food choice for supplying this critical nutrient for fighting free radical damage. Lycopene found in watermelon is a powerful antioxidant, meaning it has the ability to fight free radicals in the body that can damage cells. Additionally, benefits of watermelon include providing vitamin A (beta carotene) and vitamin C, both known for having remarkable antioxidant and anti-aging properties that can ward off diseases. Excessive free radical damage has been linked to the onset of serious diseases, including cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease, arthritis and many others. In fact, the buildup of free radicals in the body is largely to blame for the aging process and the toll is takes on the body. Adding antioxidant, nutrient-rich and anti-inflammatory foods like watermelon to your diet is one way to limit bodily stress, keeping DNA damage to a minimum and slowing the aging process. Even if you are young and healthy, watermelon benefits include helping to relieve pain, improve exercise recovery, keep skin healthy and youthful, and help with detoxification.10 Health Benefits of Watermelon1."

Avocados are an excellent source. They're especially rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fat that is easily burned for energy, which you need more of once you start to remove those carbs. Improved weight management is in fact one of the health benefits of avocado consumption, according to recent research, and its high-fat, low-sugar content is part and parcel of this effect. On most days, I will add a whole avocado to my salad, which I eat for lunch. This increases my healthy fat and calorie intake without seriously increasing my protein or carbohydrate intake. Since avocados are also high in potassium, they will also help balance your vitally important potassium to sodium ratio. Avocado for Lunch May Help You Manage Your Weight According to research published in the Nutrition Journal, 1 eating just one-half of a fresh avocado with lunch may satiate you if you're overweight, which will help prevent unnecessary snacking later."

Their functional units are the million or so nephrons in the renal cortex which filter most constituents of the blood other than red blood cells and protein, reabsorb needed substances, secrete hydrogen ions to maintain acid-base balance, and secrete wastes. 1Urine formation consists of three basic processes: glomerular filtration, tubular secretion, and tubular reabsorption. Several disease conditions can interfere with these functions. Inflammatory and degenerative diseases can involve the small blood vessels and membranes in the nephrons. Urinary tract infections and kidney stones can interfere with normal drainage, causing further infection and tissue damage. Circulatory disorders, such as hypertension, can damage the small renal arteries. Other diseases, such as diabetes, gout, and urinary tract abnormalities can lead to impaired function, infection, or obstruction. Toxic agents such as insecticides, solvents, and certain drugs may also harm renal tissue. Nephrotic Syndrome In nephrotic syndrome, an injury to the glomerular basement membrane causes an increased glomerular permeability, resulting in the loss of albumin and other plasma proteins in the urine."

Even several fad diets recommend avoiding any white or colorless food, but do not write off cauliflower and other white vegetables just yet. The grain-refining process used in pastas and white breads removes the bran and germ parts of the grain, which lower B vitamin and fiber content, so there is nothing wrong in avoiding these foods that lack nutrients. Would you like to learn how I lost 30 pounds in two months? Read my Nutrisystem review here!Cauliflower, though, has a high content of both fiber and B vitamins. As a member of the Brassica family, better known as cruciferous vegetables, cauliflower contains fiber that helps with satiety, weight loss, a healthy digestive tract, antioxidants and phytonutrients that can protect against cancer, choline that is important for learning and memory, and many other important nutrients. According to the Aggregate Nutrient Density Index score, cauliflower even ranks among the top 20 foods, which measures phytonutrient, vitamin, and mineral content in relation to caloric content ( 1 ). To earn a high rank, a food must provide a high amount of nutrients for a small number of calories.

It is essential for protein synthesis and for the conversion of blood sugar into glycogen. It activates a number of enzymes, particularly those concerned with energy production. It stimulates normal movements of the intestinal tract. Absorption and metabolism Absorption of potassium from the diet is passive and does not require any specific mechanism. Absorption takes place in the small intestine as long as the concentration in gut contents is higher than that in the blood. If food moves rapidly through the bowel then absorption will not be sufficient. The kidneys are the main regulators of body potassium, maintaining blood levels by controlling excretion, even as intake varies. Some potassium is excreted in sweat."

The salt is obtained naturally from the sea, and does not go through any processing that alters the natural make-up of the salt. Thus it contains many essential trace minerals that your body needs in order to be healthy. This natural salt is healthier than the iodized salt available in the market. Read about the ten great benefits to adding sea salt to your diet: Strong Immune System – Sea salt naturally helps you to build up a strong immune system so that you can fight off the cold virus, the fever and flu, allergies and other autoimmune disorders. Alkalizing – Sea salt is alkalizing to the body, as it has not been exposed to high heat and stripped of its minerals, nor does it have any harmful man-made ingredients added to it. Thus it can help you to prevent and reverse high levels of acids in the body, which in turn eliminates the risks for serious and life-threatening diseases. Weight Loss – Believe it or not, but sea salt can also help you in weight loss. It helps the body to create digestive juices so that the foods you eat are digested faster, and it helps to prevent buildup in the digestive tract, which eventually can lead to constipation and weight gain. Skin Conditions – A sea salt bath can help to relieve dry and itchy skin as well as serious conditions such as eczema and psoriasis."

Some common diseases include Serratia Sepsis, Serratia plymuthica, Serratia liquefaciens, Serratia rubidaea, Serratia odorifera, and Serratia fonticola. Serratia marcescens is normally associated with nosocomial infections like catheter-associated bacteremia. In hospitalized adults, it is very common in urinary tract infections and sometimes in wound infections. Diagnosis in children often find the disease in the gastrointestinal system. Most in-hospital cases of Serratia marcescens involve newborn infants, people suffering from immunodeficiency, patients with widespread cancer throughout the body, leukaemia, or other serious chronic disease, and those with chronic neurological and urological issues are at greater risk than other patients. Serratia Marcescens Symptoms: Serratia Sepsis Common symptoms in patients suffering from Serratia Sepsis include: Fever Chills Respiratory distress Shock Fever is one of the most common causes of bacterial infection and should be treated immediately. In one rare case a 103° fever resulted in spontaneous abortion of an otherwise healthy fetus. The only other symptom of the mother was a general feeling of malaise. Serratia Marcescens symptoms are commonly associated with urinary tract infections, but in 30% to 50% of reported cases, there are no symptoms to assist diagnosis."

"text": "28 February, 2014 Published in Home Care Pink Stains – What Is It? Pink residue is generally not a problem with water quality. A pink discoloration may be a result of iron found in some well water or old pipes in the delivery system but would not be isolated to only one toilet, one fixture or one room. In most cases a pink residue is likely a result of airborne bacteria which produce a pinkish or dark gray film on moist surfaces. This film is usually found as a ring that accumulates at the water line in the toilet bowl or around showerheads, shower doors or curtains, sink drains, bathtubs, tiles and grout. Some people have also noted that the pink residue appears in their pet’s water bowl, which causes no apparent harm to the pet and is easily cleaned off. Many experts agree that the bacteria that causes these pink stains is most likely Serratia Marcescens, a bacteria which is found naturally in soil, food, and in animals. Serratia, which produce a characteristic red pigment, thrive on moisture, dust, and phosphates and need almost nothing to survive. Serratia is easily carried airborne and will seek a moist location in which to grow. Some people have reported that the pink residue only appears during certain times of the year, when their windows or doors are left open for part of the day."

The high concentration of salt (7.5%) selects for members of the genus Staphylococcus, since they can tolerate high saline levels. Organisms from other genera may grow, but they typically grow very weakly. MSA also contains the sugar mannitol and the p H indicator phenol red. If an organism can ferment mannitol, an acidic byproduct is formed that will cause the phenol red in the agar to turn yellow. Most pathogenic staphylococci, such as Staphylococcus aureus, will ferment mannitol. Most non-pathogenic staphylococci will not ferment mannitol. The Staphylococcus aureus ferments mannitol and turns the medium yellow. The Serratia marcescens does not grow because of the high salt content."

"text": "September 28, 2016Crohn’s Disease: Cause Found, Cure Could Be On The Way Health Kaanii Powell Cleaver Of all the forms of inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, Crohn’s disease is one of the most frustrating. Abdominal cramps, fatigue, fever, and mouth sores are only some of the symptoms of the chronic condition that affects nearly a million people in the United States. Worldwide stats are hard to find, but it’s probably safe to assume that there are at least another million Crohn’s disease sufferers around the globe, and each of them has reason to rejoice at the recent news that scientists have finally discovered the probable cause of the devitalizing disease. According to the American Society for Microbiology, researchers at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine have uncovered the probable cause of Crohn’s disease. Unlike previous opinion that blamed bacteria, genetics, and/or stress for the onset of the troubling condition, this week’s announcement by Mahmoud A Ghannoum, Ph D explains that a fungus known as Candida tropicalis may work together with gut bacteria Serratia marcescens and Escherichia coli to cause the debilitating and sometimes fatal condition. The news that bacteriome and mycobiome interaction is likely responsible for Crohn’s means the world is closer to a cure than ever before. “We already know that bacteria, in addition to genetic and dietary factors, play a major role in causing Crohn’s disease. Essentially, patients with Crohn’s have abnormal immune responses to these bacteria, which inhabit the intestines of all people. While most researchers focus their investigations on these bacteria, few have examined the role of fungi, which are also present in everyone’s intestines. Our study adds significant new information to understanding why some people develop Crohn’s disease."

A Ghon focus is a primary lesion caused by mycobacterium bacilli ( tuberculosis) developed in the lung of a previously uninfected individual. It is named for Anton Ghon (1866-1936), a Czech pathologist. It is a small area of granulomatous inflammation, only detectable by chest X-ray if it calcifies or grows substantially (see tuberculosis radiology ). Typically these will heal, but in some cases, especially in immunosuppressed patients, it will progress to miliary tuberculosis (so named due to the calcified granulomas resembling millet seeds on a chest X-ray). The classical location for primary infection is surrounding the lobar fissures, either in the upper part of the lower lobe or lower part of the upper lobe. If the Ghon focus also involves infection of surrounding lymph nodes, it is known as the Ghon Complex [1] .vte Infectious diseases · Bacterial diseases: G- (primarily A00-A79, 001-041,080-109)Spirochaete Treponema Treponema pallidum ( Syphilis / Bejel, Yaws) · Treponema carateum ( Pinta)Borrelia Borrelia recurrentis ( Relapsing fever) · Borrelia burgdorferi ( Lyme disease, Erythema chronicum migrans, Neuroborreliosis)Spirillum Spirillum minus ( Rat-bite fever / Sodoku)Leptospira Leptospira interrogans ( Leptospirosis)Multiple Noma · Trench mouth ProteobacteriaαRickettsiales Rickettsiaceae / ( Rickettsioses)Typhus Rickettsia typhi ( Murine typhus) · Rickettsia prowazekii ( Epidemic typhus)Spotted fever Tick-borne disease Rickettsia rickettsii ( Rocky Mountain spotted fever) ·Rickettsia conorii ( Boutonneuse fever)Other Rickettsia akari ( Rickettsialpox) ·Orientia tsutsugamushi ( Scrub typhus)Anaplasmataceae Ehrlichia / Anaplasma: Ehrlichiosis ( Human granulocytic ehrlichiosis, Human monocytic ehrlichiosis)Rhizobiales Brucellaceae Brucella ( Brucellosis)Bartonellaceae Bartonellosis: Bartonella henselae ( Cat scratch fever) · Bartonella quintana ( Trench fever) · either henselae or quintana ( Bacillary angiomatosis)βNeisseriales M+ Neisseria meningitidis/meningococcus ( Meningococcal disease, Waterhouse-Friderichsen syndrome) M- Neisseria gonorrhoeae/gonococcus ( Gonorrhea) · Moraxella catarrhalis Burkholderiales Burkholderia ( Glanders, Melioidosis) · Bordetella ( Pertussis)γEnterobacteriales ( OX-)Lac+Klebsiella ( Rhinoscleroma, Donovanosis) · Escherichia coli / O157: H7 ·Enterobacter Slow/weak Serratia marcescens ( Serratia infection) · Citrobacter Lac-Yersinia pestis ( Plague / Bubonic plague) · Yersinia enterocolitica Salmonella enterica ( Typhoid fever, Paratyphoid fever, Salmonellosis) ·Shigella dysenteriae / sonnei / flexneri ( Shigellosis, Bacillary dysentery) · Proteus Pasteurellales Haemophilus: influenzae ( Brazilian purpuric fever) · ducreyi ( Chancroid) Pasteurella multocida ( Pasteurellosis) · Actinobacillus ( Actinobacillosis)Legionellales Legionella ( Legionellosis) · Coxiella ( Q fever)Other Thiotrichales / Francisella ( Tularemia) · Vibrionales / Vibrio ( Cholera) ·Pseudomonadales / Pseudomonas aeruginosa ( Pseudomonas infection)εCampylobacterales Campylobacter jejuni ( Campylobacteriosis) · Helicobacter pylori ( Peptic ulcer)Chlamydiae Chlamydophila ( Psittacosis) · Chlamydia ( Chlamydia, Lymphogranuloma venereum, Trachoma)Bacteroidetes Bacteroides fragilis Primarily rods except Neisseriaceae and Spirochaete.

However, unfortunately, we ever more often find out that such experiments are performed almost regularly in the United States by US intelligence agencies, and even citizens of the United States are among those who suffer in these experiments on human beings. Recently, the international community obtained yet another piece of evidence of criminal nature of the CIA – the main instrument of Washington’s ‘democracy’. As follows from the secret documents made public by “The Guardian ” newspaper, the CIA, in its program of torture of alleged terrorists in US prisons, performed inhuman experiments on human beings in the style of Nazi Germany butchers. The American Civil Rights Union got a secret document submitted by the journalists of The Guardian newspaper (UK), from which it becomes apparent that the CIA director authorized his employees to perform in prisons acts illegal under international law. The document notes that the CIA, according to the ‘guiding principles’ dated back to 1987 and then updated several times, should not sponsor, order, or conduct research on humans. However, the head of this agency was endowed with the authority ‘to approve, modify or reject all proposals concerning research on human beings’, and this ‘freedom’ conferred to him had not been publicly announced before. Thus, according to the British newspaper, from 1997 to 2004 the CIA Director George Tenet authorized harsh interrogation techniques, including ‘waterboarding’, and instructed doctors to observe the process of torture and the prisoners’ reaction. These revelations about ‘enhanced interrogation techniques’ of the CIA are in complete contradiction not only with international but also domestic US law, which clearly states that ‘research’ on humans can be done only with their informed consent. However, the CIA edited one of the four sections on experiments on human beings."

"text": "People with Crohn’s disease know the uncomfortable symptoms of the chronic condition all too well: diarrhea, abdominal pain, weight loss and fatigue, among others. But what doctors have not been able to tell the approximately 565,000 people in the U. S. with Crohn’s is why they’ve developed the inflammatory bowel condition in the first place. Most experts suspect the condition is the result of the body’s immune system attacking healthy cells, mistakenly triggered by bacteria in the digestive tract. Now, a new study has identified a specific fungus and two bacteria they think play a key role in what leads some people to develop the disease. “Among hundreds of bacterial and fungal species inhabiting the intestines, it is telling that the three we identified were so highly correlated in Crohn’s patients ,” the study’s senior author Mahmoud A. Ghannoum, professor and director of the Center for Medical Mycology at Case Western Reserve and University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center, said in a press release. Research has previously identified that E. coli bacteria contribute to Crohn’s symptoms, but this is the first study to show the bacteria Serratia marcescens and the fungus Candida tropicalis are also involved. “Crohn’s disease has other factors that impact it: Number one is genetics and number two is environmental factors, such as what people eat,” Ghannoum told Huff Post. This study is distinct because it compared patients with Crohn’s disease to both healthy strangers and to their own family members who did not have Crohn’s. This is important because family members share genes, household environments and food, and researchers were able to further isolate what distinguishes the microbiomes of those with Crohn’s from those around them. “This cuts a lot of the noise,” Ghannoume said."

Abstract Injection of culture supernatant of Serratia marcescens, a Gram-negative bacterium pathogenic to a wide range of host animals including insects and mammals, into the hemolymph of silkworm ( Bombyx mori) larvae led to continuous flow of the hemolymph (blood of insects) from the injection site. The amount of hemolymph lost within 60 min reached 15–20% of the total larval weight. Using a bioassay with live silkworms, we purified Serralysin, a metalloprotease that requires divalent cations for its activity, as the factor responsible for the promotion of hemolymph bleeding from the culture supernatant of S. marcescens. Recombinant protein also induced hemolymph bleeding in silkworms. Moreover, the culture supernatant of an S. marcescens disruption mutant of the ser gene showed attenuated ability to promote hemolymph bleeding. In addition, this bleeding–promoting activity of the S. marcescens culture supernatant was attenuated by disruption of the wec A gene, which is involved in the biosynthesis of the lipopolysaccharide O-antigen. These findings suggest that Serralysin metalloprotease contributes to the pathogenesis of S. marcescens by inhibiting wound healing, which leads to a massive loss of hemolymph from silkworm larvae.

"text": "Monograph Tables What's New Reviews History MI CROBIOLOGYOnce considered a harmless saprophyte, Serratia marcescens is now recognized as an important opportunistic pathogen combining a propensity for healthcare-associated infection and antimicrobial resistance. Serratia marcescens is a member of the genus Serratia, which is a part of the family Enterobacteriaceae. Currently 14 species of Serratia are recognized within the genus, eight of which are associated with human infection ( 67 ). Of the eight species implicated in clinical infection S. marcescens , S. liquefaciens and S. odorifera are best known ( 31 , 67 ). Of all Serratia species, S. marcescens is the most common clinical isolate and the most important human pathogen. S. marcescens is credited with a long fanatical history dating back to antiquity, when, because of its ability to produce a red pigment it was described as having ‘masqueraded’ as blood ( 36 ). Early in this century, this distinctive red pigmentation of S. marcescens, combined with an apparent low level of virulence, led to its use as a biological marker of infection. Consequently, S. marcescens was used in a number of classic bacterial transmission experiments, which led to improved understanding of the epidemiology of infection ( 124 ). Under more controversial settings, S. marcescens was also used by the US military in a series of biological warfare test experiments conducted on the general population ( 124 ). From 1960 onwards, however, non-pigmented isolates of S. marcescens predominated over pigmented strains in the clinical setting and were increasingly implicated in healthcare-associated infection ( 24, 30) particularly among compromised patients."

"text": "Coral Diseases4 Comments20 Apr 2012 Posted by Cliff Background This is a very difficult topic to learn about, as for the most part, not enough scientific study has been completed yet. Coral disease research really did not get a lot of focus until the mid 1970s with many of the common diseases only becoming properly identified in the early 1990s. With the increasing levels of pollutants in the waters of the coral reefs, combined with the effects of global warming, more and more diseases have be developing, along with the frequency they are being found in among the ocean’s coral reefs. This is (IMO) a very serious threat to the long-term health of our coral reefs today. For example, White band disease has had a devastating impact in the coral reefs in the Florida Keys (killing ~95% of all Acropora SPS corals), and in the Caribbean (infecting ~50% of the shallow water, mostly Elkhorn SPS corals within the first five years after this disease was discovered there). During the past 10 years, the Caribbean coral reefs are being affected more and more each year. New diseases have even started to surface that affect coralline algae (Coralline Lethal Algae Disease) which could also have a significant impact on health of our coral reefs. Common Elements that Contribute to Disease Two common elements in all coral disease causes / factors are: stress from any environment factors, and/or water parameter changes. These environmental factors can include: stress/injury from opportunistic organisms such as nematodes or flatworms, and bites/nips from fish or invertebrates combined with the presence of certain types of bacteria and/or fungus. The most common elements of water parameters that can lead to coral diseases are higher than normal temperatures and higher than normal nutrients in the water (typically Nitrate levels 5 ppm or higher and Phosphate levels 0.5 ppm or higher)."

It belongs to the genus Serratia and the family Enterobacteriaceae [ 1 ]. It is widely distributed in nature, including river water [ 2 ], mineral, spring and table water [ 3 ], domestic sewage [ 4 ], fish, minced meat and pasteurized milk or cream [ 5 ]. It has been reported as a cause of mastitis in a dairy herd [ 6 ]. In humans, it has rarely been reported as a cause of nosocomial infections, including urinary tract infection [ 7 ], pneumonia [ 8 ], post-sternotomy mediastinitis [ 9 ], neonatal meningitis [ 10] and septicaemia resulting from transfusion of contaminated blood products [ 11 ]. A few reports of S. liquefaciens causing community-acquired infections include peritonitis associated with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis [ 12 ], pustulosis and costochondritis in heroin addicts [ 13 ], fistulous pyoderma [ 14 ], septic arthritis [ 15] and ocular infections resulting from contamination of contact lens cases [ 16 ]. I recently encountered a patient who developed an intravascular central catheter-related suppurative thrombophlebitis and endocarditis due to S. liquefaciens. He was a 55-year-old man who had developed short gut syndrome as a complication of chronic pancreatitis and multiple bowel resections. He had been dependent on parenteral nutrition for the preceding 6 months. He presented with fever, malaise and pain in the right side of the neck, along the tunnel of the indwelling intravenous central catheter."

Let's start with the name. Most microbiologists and clinicians pronounce the name \"\"sir EH sha\"\", but a minority (including me) pronounce it \"\"sir AH tee uh\"\". This difference arises from the origin of the name: a tribute to Serafino Serrati. But before we get to that.. a bit of history. S. marcescens is a saprophytic bacterium known to reside in the environment. Some strains harbor a pink to reddish-orange color pigment. When colonies of these strains are grown on agar, the pigment is apparent within a day and tends to last for several days before it breaks down in the presence of light. This pigment is almost certainly responsible to many reports from antiquity onward of the sudden appearance of speck of red or orange color on food, fabric or inanimate objects."

"text": "Professor Peter Doherty, immunologist Peter Doherty was born in 1940 in Brisbane. He attended veterinary school at the University of Queensland, and went on to complete his Ph D at Edinburgh University. He took up a post-doctoral position with the John Curtin School of Medicine Research, where he researched how the body’s immune cells protect against viruses. He made a breakthrough in discovering the role of T cells in the immune system, for which, he received the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1996, and was named Australian of the Year in 1997. Doherty currently splits his time between researching at St Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Tennessee and working in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Melbourne. You can order the DVD from the Academy for $15 (including GST and postage)Interviewed by Roger Beckman in 1996. Contents Introduction Early life The discovery The significance of the discovery Science in general The present and the future The Australian Academy of Science interviews Nobel Laureate, Professor Peter Doherty Imagine going to a school where you're not allowed to do biology because you happen to be a boy; and now imagine that, despite that restriction, you decide to study Veterinary Sciences at the University of Queensland because you reckon it's doing something useful; and suppose that just eleven years after leaving University you make a more-or-less accidental discovery of such importance to medicine that you go on, years later, to receive the highest honour in all science – the Nobel Prize. Too good to be true? Not at all. Meet Professor Peter Doherty, a fellow of the Australian Academy of Science, who did just that and became Australia's eighth Nobel Laureate in science."

Get married in style, plan your wedding. Learn More at planyourwedding.tk4 Answers Quora User, FACC x19 years Answered Mar 27, 2016 · Author has 142 answers and 115k answer views Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is an irregular heart rhythm that can be episodic/on and off (paroxysmal a fib), or persistent/permanent (chronic AFib). Heart rhythm is how regular/evenly spaced the heart beats occur (think of how regular the beat/rhythm is of a song you dance to). Heart rate pertains to how many heart beats per minute (average is 60-100 per minute, but with medication 50 is not unusual and is still considered satisfactory)One has to remember that a pacemaker is an anti-bradycardia device (prevents slow heart rate). A pacemaker is prescribed to patients with AFib only if their heart tends to get too slow (< 40 beats per minute or pauses for >4 seconds) and cause symptoms (such as near fainting or fainting). Situations with AFib when heart rate becomes unavoidably too slow are: The slow heart beat is unavoidable because of medication essential for controlling fast AFib, angina or high BP, and for which there are no effective alternatives. The patient's natural pacemaker (the sinus node) no longer responds appropriately to the needs of the body (e.g. when walking, heart rate remains <45 per minute instead of increasing to 100/min) - a condition called sick sinus syndrome. When the electrical signal from the sinus node stops in the atriums and doesn't transmit to ventricles (main pumping chambers), a condition called complete heart block. ( This is an electrical block and not a clogged up blood vessel)."

Share: FULL STORYSt. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists Martine Roussel, Ph. D., Bao Han Vo, Ph. D., and Chunliang Li, Ph. D., used CRISPR gene editing to reveal how a histone writer enzyme plays a role in suppressing as well as driving the most aggressive form of medulloblastoma. Credit: St. Jude Children's Research Hospital Researchers led by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists have worked out how a crucial cancer-related protein, a \"\"histone writer\"\" called Ezh2, plays a role in suppressing as well as driving the most aggressive form of the brain tumor medulloblastoma. Ezh2 is a histone writer, an enzyme that can tag or label other proteins in a way that turns off genes. The new findings, which appear online today in Cell Reports, show that unlike in some earlier studies where the protein helped to advance disease, Ezh2 can also suppress cancer. This dichotomy has implications for the potential use of drugs intended to inhibit this enzyme, some of which are being tested in clinical trials."

"text": "What is neuroblastoma? Neuroblastoma is a very rare type of cancerous tumor that almost always affects children. Neuroblastoma develops from nerve cells in the fetus called neuroblasts. Usually, as a fetus matures and after birth, the neuroblasts develop normally. Sometimes they become cancerous, causing neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma can be inherited (passed down in families). Neuroblastoma tumors generally develop in the adrenal glands (located on top of the kidneys), where neuroblasts are most commonly found. But neuroblastoma can also begin in or spread to other areas including the chest, the spine or spinal cord regions and the abdomen. How common is neuroblastoma? Neuroblastoma accounts for 7 to10 percent of childhood cancers."

"text": "St. Jude Thaddeus, The Patron Saint of the Impossible Legend has it that St. Jude was born into a Jewish family in Paneas, a town in the Galilee region of ancient Palestine, the same area that Jesus grew up in. He probably spoke Greek and Aramaic, like many people in that area, and he was a farmer by trade. Jude was described by St. Matthew (13:55) as being one of the “brethren” of Jesus, probably meaning a cousin since the Hebrew word for “brethren” indicates a blood relationship. His mother, Mary, was referred to as a cousin of Jesus’ mother Mary, while his father, Cleophas, was the brother of St. Joseph. Jude had several brothers, including St. James, who was another of the original Apostles. His own first name, “Jude”, means giver of joy, while “Thaddeus”, another name he was called, means generous and kind. Jude was called to be one of the twelve Apostles of Jesus Christ. He began preaching the Good News of Jesus to Jews throughout Galilee, Samaria, and Judea. Around 37 A. D., St. Jude went to Mesopotamia (present-day Iraq) and became a leader of the Church of The East that St. Thomas established there. St. Jude traveled throughout Mesopotamia, Libya, Turkey, and Persia with St. Simon, preaching and converting many people to Christianity."

"text": "What are Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Gliomas? DIPG is a type of tumor that starts in the brain stem, the part of the brain just above the back of the neck and connected to the spine. The brain stem controls breathing, heart rate and the nerves and muscles that help us see, hear, walk, talk and eat. These tumors are called gliomas because they grow from glial cells, a type of supportive cell in the brain. DIPG falls into the Glioma staging system, so they can be classified according to the four stages below based on how the cells look under the microscope. The grades are from the least severe to the most severe. Low Grade: Grade I or II means that the tumor cells are the closest to normal. High Grade: Grade III or IV means that these are the most aggressive tumors. The main issue with DIPG is that most of these tumors are not classified by grade because surgery to obtain tissue by biopsy or to remove the tumor is not safe because of the location of the tumor. When these tumors are biopsied, they are usually grade III or grade IV tumors, which tend to behave very aggressively."

He selected twelve men whom he specially trained for the ministry, and these were to be his College of Apostles who were to preach the Gospel to all the nations. After Pentecost we see these Apostles animated with a deep love for their Divine Master, facing endless persecutions, and preaching Christ crucified throughout the world. They detached themselves from worldly affairs, and in fact, left all things, for the sake of Christ. It was quite clear to them that in order to love God and to taste of His love they had to disentangle themselves from all attachment to created things, in short they had to die to themselves before living for him. This was the mystery which Christ unfolded to St. Jude., His kinsman and one of the twelve Apostles. St. Jude was son of Alpheus, (or cleophas) brother of ST. Joseph, the foster-father of our Lord. Cleophas was a very faithful disciple of Christ and was one of the two disciples to whom our Lord appeared on the road from Jerusalem to Emmaus."

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a cancer of the white blood cells that normally fight infection. The cells do not grow and develop properly, filling up the bone marrow inside bones, where blood is normally made. ALL is the most common type of childhood cancer, accounting for 35% of all cancers in children. Each year, there are about 2,900 new cases of children and adolescents diagnosed with ALL in the United States alone. Meet Jack, an eight-time St. Baldrick’s shavee who was diagnosed with ALL >Its signs and symptoms resemble other common illnesses, which often leads to other treatments before the leukemia diagnosis is made. What are the signs and symptoms of ALL? A low number of red blood cells leads to anemia, making the child feel tired or weak. Children may also experience shortness of breath and may look pale. A low number of white blood cells that fight infection cause the child to get fevers or infections that are hard to treat."

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a cancer that affects the white blood cells. These cells fight infection and help protect the body against disease. Patients with ALL have too many immature white blood cells in their bone marrow. These cells crowd out normal white blood cells. Without enough normal white blood cells, the body has a harder time fighting infections. ALL affects a type of white blood cell called lymphocytes, causing them to build up in the liver, spleen and lymph nodes. How common is acute lymphoblastic leukemia? ALL is the most common type of childhood cancer. It most often occurs in children ages 3 to 5 and affects slightly more boys than girls."

"text": "<< Back to July 2010Is Soy Safe? Busting the Myths of a Nutritional Powerhouse July 2010By Oscar Rodriguez Rarely has a nutritional source gained such rapid acceptance and drawn the kind of hostile scrutiny focused on soy. No sooner did the FDA take the highly unusual step of allowing a health claim to be made for soy as a food in 1999, 1,2 than it came under attack by a vocal minority of “concerned citizens”—some of whom were found to represent a narrow segment of the food industry threatened by soy’s profits. 3Thanks to their efforts, considerable misinformation now contaminates the discussion of soy’s real impact on health. Instead of enjoying the broad range of benefits, many aging individuals are unnecessarily fearful of consuming soy products. The good news is that the popularity and “controversy” surrounding soy have resulted in considerable clinical study and research, giving rise to a wealth of scientific literature that validates soy’s health-promoting potential. In this article, you will find out how soy became the subject of controversy—and why it shouldn’t be. You will discover the latest findings on soy and its components, including isoflavones and soy protein. You will also learn how just 15-20 grams of soy per day, (or 50-90 mg of soy isoflavones) can operate at the cellular level to provide a formidable defense against cardiovascular disease, numerous forms of cancer, osteoporosis, and menopausal symptoms. 4Soy and Estrogen: The Real Story At the center of the controversy surrounding soy is the “estrogen-like” molecular profile of some soy-based compounds—and whether they increase the risk of certain hormone-dependent cancers and other adverse effects associated with hormonal imbalance."

But is BPA really that bad, and should you avoid it at all costs? This is a detailed review of BPA and its health effects. What is BPA? BPA (bisphenol-A) is a chemical that is added to many commercial products, including food containers and hygiene products. It was first discovered in the 1890s, but chemists in the 1950s realized that it could be mixed with other compounds to produce strong and resilient polycarbonate plastics. These days, BPA-containing plastics are commonly used in food containers, baby bottles and other things. BPA is also used to make epoxy resins, which are put on the inner lining of canned food containers to keep the metal from corroding and breaking. Bottom Line: BPA is a synthetic compound found in many plastics, as well as in the lining of canned food containers."

"text": "\"HEALTH NEWSFact Checked How Does Gastric Bypass Surgery Cure Type 2 Diabetes? Gastric bypass surgery often improves the symptoms of type 2 diabetes, even before patients start to lose weight. Why?“What we found is that the secret for the cure of diabetes after gastric bypass lies in the intestine,” said Dr. Nicholas Stylopoulos, principal investigator at the Division of Endocrinology at Children's Hospital Boston and Boston Medical School, in an interview with Healthline. “ The key message is that after gastric bypass the intestine becomes the most important tissue for glucose use and this decreases blood sugar levels. ”His research was published last week in the journal Science. Doctors are hopeful they can find a way to mimic the processes that lead to improvements for type 2 diabetics after gastric bypass without actually doing the surgery. Small Intestine to the Rescue Here's how it works: After gastric bypass, which is a common weight loss solution for the severely obese, the small intestine spontaneously begins to produce a molecule called GLUT-1 that helps the body use glucose. “ The quite amazing thing is that this is not present normally in the small intestine of adults, but only in the fetus,” said Dr. Erini Nestoridi, a research fellow in Stylopoulos' lab, in an interview with Healthline. “ This happens most likely because the intestine has to work harder to do its job, for example to absorb the nutrients or move the food further down. Also, it may be that the mechanical stress of 'dumping' the food directly to the intestine, since the stomach is bypassed, contributes to these changes."

Go to: Abstract Objective: Certain disorders may be falsely diagnosed as stroke. We examined the efficacy of the diagnostic protocol that is followed in our stroke unit and was designed in order to early differentiate more efficiently between stroke and conditions that mimic it. Methods - Patients: Three hundred sixty-two elderly patients (196 male, 166 female with average age 74.56 years), who were hospitalized at our stroke center between January of 2005 and June of 2007 and diagnosed at admission as stroke patients, were retrospectively studied in order to investigate if the final diagnosis agreed with the initial diagnosis of stroke on admission. Our diagnostic protocol included medical history of the patient, assessment of state of consciousness, blood pressure, electrocardiogram, complete blood cell count (hematocrit/hemoglobin, leukocytes, platelets), clotting mechanism (prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time), glucose, electrolytes (Na, K, Ca), renal (blood urea nitrogen, creatinine) and liver function (SGOT, SGPT), as well as imaging methods like chest X-Ray and brain CT scan. Results: In 95% of patients, the final diagnosis agreed with the initial diagnosis of stroke at admission. According to final diagnosis, 344 (95%) of them had stroke -either hemorrhagic or ischemic-, while from the rest 18 (5%), 12 (66.7%) were found to have metastatic neoplasm of brain, 3 (18.7%) had primal tumour of brain, whereas 3 (18.7%) suffered from other diseases (respiratory infection, meningoencephalitis, thyrotoxicosis). The principal symptoms of the conditions that mimicked a stroke were: aphasic disturbances (27.3%), dizziness/fainting (27.3%), headache/diplopia (11.1%), dysarthria (11.1%), hiccup and/or swallow disturbances (5.6%)."

S. children, and the rate is on the rise Early puberty is linked to emotional and behavioral problems, along with an increased risk of diabetes, heart disease and other cardiovascular diseases, as well as cancer, later in life Environmental chemicals, and particularly estrogen-mimicking, “gender-bending” chemicals that easily leach out of the products that contain them, are a likely culprit; this includes phthalates, parabens, PFOA, bisphenol-A (BPA) and more (these environmental chemicals are also linked to other health risks like cancer and heart disease)Among the best ways to avoid early puberty are to limit your child’s exposure (and your own during pregnancy) to hormone-disrupting chemicals and stress, as well as to optimize your child’s vitamin D levels and to encourage a regular exercise program By Dr. Mercola Reaching puberty is a rite of passage that we've all been through, but children nowadays are reaching it earlier than ever before -- a trend that has both health experts and parents alarmed. Precocious puberty, which is the appearance of secondary sex characteristics like pubic hair or breast growth before age 8, or the onset of menarche before age 9, impacts at least 1 in 5,000 U. S. children, and the rate is on the rise. 1Even in the last three decades, children (particularly girls) are maturing at younger and younger ages (precocious puberty is 10 times more common in girls than in boys). Puberty, Once the Norm at Age 15, Now Occurring in 7-, 8- and 9-Year-Olds In the 19th century the onset of menstruation occurred around the age of 15. Now the average age of the first period, or menarche, is around 12. The time during and before puberty is one of rapid development and change, which is why even months matter when it comes to first menstruation. Before menstruation, girls will show beginning signs of development, such as breast \"\"budding\"\" and growth of pubic hair. These signs are now becoming unsettlingly common among 7-, 8- and 9-year-old girls, to the extent that many health care providers, rather than labeling these children with a diagnosis that something is wrong, have simply changed the definition of what's normal... but is it really \"\"normal\"\" for girls to mature at such a young age? There are more questions than answers in the case of precocious puberty, but what is certain is that girls are developing earlier than they have even 10, 20 or 30 years ago. One study in the journal Pediatrics revealed that by age 7, 10 percent of white girls, 23 percent of black girls, 15 percent of Hispanic girls and 2 percent of Asian girls had started developing breasts, with researchers noting: 2\"\"The proportion of girls who had breast development at ages 7 and 8 years, particularly among white girls, is greater than that reported from studies of girls who were born 10 to 30 years earlier. \"\""

I have been specializing in the area of gluten intolerance for close to 15 years and during that time have authored a book, e Book, plus hundreds of You Tube videos and blogs. I am passionate about improving awareness and lessening the many diseases associated with it, so it is with great delight that I present this exciting information to you. We See Stabilization and Reversal of Autoimmune Disease in Patients Autoimmune disease and its relationship to gluten intolerance is something I’ve discussed on several occasions and have stated that here at Health NOW we see excellent success in stabilizing and reversing autoimmune disease. While I felt confident in our clinic’s results, it was sometimes difficult to substantiate our findings beyond our own personal experience due to lack of any corroborative research findings. The dilemma with autoimmune disease is that its frequency has been increasing dramatically. Much the same as autism, autoimmune disease has doubled every 15 years for the past 75 years, making it the third leading cause of death in the U. S. Such an increase cannot be explained by genetics as genes do not alter that quickly. It is agreed that an environmental component is at play, but what is it? Look to the Gut for the Cause I have long thought that the gut and a loss of integrity of the lining of the gut, specifically the small intestine, was likely responsible."

Vascular dementia is a neurodegenerative disorder of the brain in which there is cognitive decline and deficiencies in mental performance that generally occur in steps. The cognitive decline of vascular dementia includes memory loss and impairment of brain function in such areas as language, intellect, judgement, behavior. Vascular dementia can eventually lead to disability and institutionalization. Vascular dementia is due to the death ( necrosis) of brain tissue because of clots that obstruct blood vessels in the brain (infarction). These clots occur due to TIA ( transient ischemic attack) or stroke or a series of repeated TIAs or strokes. Vascular dementia is most common in people with these conditions and those who have risk factors for stroke."

First, a quick primer on the pancreas The pancreas is a V-shaped organ nestled snugly behind the stomach and next to the first section of the small intestine. The pancreas produces insulin, which helps metabolize sugar and convert it into energy, and enzymes, which aid in the digestion and absorption of fats.2.

Gallstones are stones that form in the gallbladder (often misspelled \"\"gall bladder\"\"). They vary in size from a millimeter or two to several centimeters and are made up of cholesterol or bile pigments. Cholecystitis means inflammation of the gallbladder. Although, cholecystitis is most commonly caused by gallstones, there are other less common causes as well. What is the mechanism of gallbladder pain? Gallstones have a tendency to become lodged in the bile ducts leading from the gallbladder or liver into the intestines. When gallstones lodge in the ducts, they give rise to a specific type of pain called biliary colic. The characteristics of biliary colic are very consistent, and it is important to recognize its characteristics because they direct the physician to the most appropriate test to diagnose gallstones, primarily abdominal ultrasonography. In approximately 5% of cases, ultrasonography will fail to show gallstones."

"text": "The difference between Bell’s palsy and a stroke Bell’s palsy is a temporary paralysis of the facial muscles, causing drooping and weakness on one side of the face, and is sometimes mistaken for a stroke. While alarming, Bell’s palsy is usually not permanent and resolves itself in two weeks to six months, depending on the severity. “I see patients with Bell’s palsy every year,” says Jyotir Jani, M. D., a family medicine physician at Piedmont. “ Because Bell’s palsy affects a single nerve, the facial nerve, its symptoms mimic those of a stroke .”A stroke is caused by a blood clot that stops blood flow to the brain or by a blood vessel that ruptures in the brain, while Bell’s palsy is linked to facial nerve damage. An estimated 40,000 people in the United States will develop Bell’s palsy each year. Men and women of any age are at risk, though it is not as common in people under the age of 15 or over the age of 60. It seems to be most common in people who have upper respiratory infections (like the cold or flu) or those who have diabetes. It is named after Sir Charles Bell, a Scottish surgeon who studied the condition in the 19 th century. The symptoms of Bell’s palsy The facial nerve controls a complex array of functions, so when it is damaged, the symptoms can vary in type and severity. They include: Paralysis, drooping, weakness or twitching on one side of the face (rarely on both sides)Change in the ability to taste Difficulty speaking Dizziness Drooling Eye or mouth dryness Excessive watering in one eye Headache Hypersensitivity to sound Pain in the jaw or behind the ear Ringing in the ears Trouble eating or drinking What causes Bell’s palsy?"

"text": "Medical Marijuana and Parkinson’s Disease A disorder of the nervous system, Parkinson’s disease affects a person’s ability to move. Since it is a progressive disease, Parkinson’s grows worse with time. In many people, symptoms start out small and subtle but begin to interfere more and more with daily life. In a healthy brain, brain cells produce a chemical called dopamine. Dopamine is responsible for relaying messages within the brain that control movement in the human body. When these cells are damaged, the signs of Parkinson’s Disease begin to show. Some treatments are available for Parkinson’s, but there is no cure. As medical marijuana becomes legal in more and more states, physicians and researchers are looking more closely at the potential benefits of medical cannabis for Parkinson’s disease. Understanding Parkinson’s Disease People have been experiencing Parkinson’s disease for thousands of years. Ayurveda, the ancient medical practice from India, includes a description of a condition known as Kampavata, which has symptoms similar to Parkinson’s disease."

Parkinson's disease is one of the most common movement disorders, affecting about 1% of people older than 60 years. Parkinson's disease is about 1.5 times more common in men than in women, and it becomes more likely to occur in people as they age. Parkinson's disease is not a hereditary disease. The average age of onset is about 60 years. Onset before age 40 years is relatively uncommon, but the much-publicized diagnosis of actor Michael J. Fox shows that younger people are also vulnerable. In Parkinson's disease, brain cells deteriorate (or degenerate) in an area of the brain called the substantia nigra. From the substantia nigra, specific nerve cell tracts connect to another part of the brain called the corpus striatum, where the neurotransmitter (a chemical messenger in the brain) called dopamine is released. Dopamine is an important neurotransmitter and alterations in its concentration can lead to the different medical problems seen in Parkinson's disease. The loss of these specific brain cells and decline in dopamine concentration are key steps that lead to the signs and symptoms of Parkinson's disease as well as are the target for treatments of Parkinson's disease."

"text": "Parkinson’s Disease & Medical Marijuana Published on April 7, 2015, By Gooey Rabinski Conditions Marijuana Knowledge Base Medical Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a motor system disorder classified as a progressive neurological disease which occurs when neurons in the basal ganglia degenerate, causing a shortage of dopamine production. This results in the impairments in movement associated with the disease. Parkinson’s typically affects men over 60, but — as Michael J. Fox has unfortunately proven — can afflict significantly younger adults. Historically, cannabis has been used to treat PD as far back as the 19th Century, despite the fact that doctors were unaware of cannabinoids and no clinical studies had been conducted. Patients with a variety of similar neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, dystonia, and epilepsy have been found to gain significant benefit from the use of cannabis. Can the same be said of Parkinson’s? The Research While the cause of Parkinson’s remains unknown, it is tied to the untimely death of specialized cells in the brain that produce dopamine and results in a lack of coordination, poor motor function, and difficulty walking. The primary symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease include: Tremors Rigidity Bradykinesia (very slow physical movements)Impaired balance coordination Sleep disturbance Neuropathic pain Cannabis has been found to treat not only the shaking and rigidity that accompany Parkinson’s, but also the depression that typically results. Tetrahydrocannabinol ( THC) and Cannabidiol ( CBD ), the primary cannabinoids (active therapeutic chemicals) found in cannabis, are known to control spasms, reduce inflammation, and prevent further neurological damage. According to one study, smoking cannabis significantly reduced the tremors associated with PD, improved sleep, and reduced pain in patient participants."

"text": "\"Diagnosis No specific test exists to diagnose Parkinson's disease. Your doctor trained in nervous system conditions (neurologist) will diagnose Parkinson's disease based on your medical history, a review of your signs and symptoms, and a neurological and physical examination. Your doctor may order tests, such as blood tests, to rule out other conditions that may be causing your symptoms. Imaging tests — such as MRI, ultrasound of the brain, SPECT and PET scans — may also be used to help rule out other disorders. Imaging tests aren't particularly helpful for diagnosing Parkinson's disease. In addition to your examination, your doctor may give you carbidopa-levodopa, a Parkinson's disease medication. You must be given a sufficient dose to show the benefit, as low doses for a day or two aren't reliable. Significant improvement with this medication will often confirm your diagnosis of Parkinson's disease. Sometimes it takes time to diagnose Parkinson's disease. Doctors may recommend regular follow-up appointments with neurologists trained in movement disorders to evaluate your condition and symptoms over time and diagnose Parkinson's disease."

Dementia with Lewy bodies (LBD) is the name for a group of disorders in which dementia is caused by the presence of Lewy bodies in the brain. Lewy bodies are small round clumps of normal proteins that for unknown reasons become abnormally clumped together inside neurons (brain cells). Whether the Lewy bodies directly cause gradual degeneration (damage) to the brain cells, impairing their function and eventually killing them, or are only a marker of some other destructive process is not known. Lewy bodies are named after Frederich Lewy, the doctor who first described them in 1912. Dr. Lewy first found Lewy bodies in the brains of people with Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's disease is a condition best known for disrupting body movements. The most common of these \"\"motor\"\" symptoms are tremor (shaking or trembling) of the hands (that mainly occurs when the hands are at rest and not moving),rigidity (stiffness) of the trunk and limbs,slowness of movement, andloss of balance and coordination. Estimates vary about what percentage of people with Parkinson disease develop dementia. Scientists later discovered cases of Alzheimer's-type dementia linked to Lewy bodies."

This technology allows doctors to differentiate Parkinson's from other movement disorders. \"\" The scan by itself does not make the diagnosis of Parkinson's but it allows us to identify patients who have loss of dopamine, the major chemical responsible for the symptoms, from those who have no dopamine deficiency,\"\" said Tanya Simuni, MD, a neurologist at Northwestern Memorial and director of Northwestern's Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Center. \"\" This is a very important step in being able to accurately identify and treat movement disorders and hopefully allow us to better understand these diseases over time. \"\""

"text": "Types of Parkinson's Diseaseby JAIME HERNDON Aug. 14, 2017Parkinson's disease is a brain disorder in which specialized brain cells die, causing a variety of symptoms. There are several kinds of Parkinson's diseases and Parkinson's-like syndromes; all of these types together are known as Parkinsonism. There is no definitive test for any of these types of Parkinson's, but along with a physical exam, neurological exam, imagine studies and patient history, a provider can make a diagnosis. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Parkinson's Plus Syndromes Parkinson's Plus syndrome consist of some symptoms of Parkinson's disease, and also other symptoms like muscle weakness and atrophy, significant memory and behavioral problems, autonomic dysfunction and inappropriate eye movement control. Different kinds of Parkinson's Plus syndrome include dementia with lewy bodies, multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear palsy and corticobasal degeneration. Medical approaches used for treating Parkinson's disease are not as effective in treating Parkinson's Plus syndrome, and patients with this syndrome have a shorter survival time, faster disease progression and more visible disability than Parkinson's disease patients. Secondary Parkinson's Disease An identifiable cause for Parkinson's can be found in approximately 10 percent of patients, and with an identifiable cause, these patients can be diagnosed as having secondary Parkinson's. Tests like MRI and CT scans, as well as blood and urine tests, can help rule out causes and provide more information. Parkinson's Disease Parkinson's disease is a brain disorder that occurs when neurons in the area of the brain called the substantia nigra begin to die. This interferes with the production of the chemical dopamine, which aids in muscle movement."

This includes loss of memory and impairment of brain function in such areas as language, intellect, judgement, and behavior. Dementia is common in the elderly and is a very common cause of disability, institutionalization, and death in this population. Dementia can be caused by a wide variety of conditions or diseases. The most common cause of dementia is Alzheimer's disease, which progressively damages and destroys such cognitive processes as memory, orientation, and speech. The second most common cause of dementia is vascular dementia. Vascular dementia is due to the death ( necrosis) of brain tissue because of clots that obstruct blood vessels in the brain."

"text": "\"by Daniel Pendick Parkinson’s disease is notorious for so-called motor symptoms like muscle rigidity, tremor, slowed movement, and unsteady posture and gait. Less well known -- even to some doctors who treat the disease -- are the effects of Parkinson’s on thinking. These “cognitive” signs include a general slowness of thought, “tip of the tongue” forgetfulness of words, and difficulty juggling multiple mental tasks. Parkinson’s disease and the medications used to treat it may also affect how the brain learns. And even stranger, certain Parkinson's drugs can trigger compulsive behaviors such as pathological gambling or uncontrolled shopping. Understanding these and other aspects of how Parkinson's disease affects the mind offers hope of a better life for people with a disease estimated to affect more than a half million Americans. The death of dopamine Parkinson's is caused by the death of brain cells that produce dopamine, one of the chemicals that carry messages between neurons. Low dopamine impairs the basal ganglia, which are brain regions that control movement and coordination. Drug treatments try to shore up dopamine levels. For example, medications containing the chemical L-dopa provide extra raw materials to produce natural dopamine."

[ 1] In 1928, Alexander Fleming was conducting a laboratory experiment, and incidentally ran into the fact that the Penicillium fungus had strong antibacterial properties. A list of significant events leading up to Fleming’s discovery follows: [2]- 1640 John Parkington recommended using mold for treatment in his book on pharmacology - 1870 Sir John Scott Burdon-Sanderson observed that culture fluid covered with mould did not produce bacteria - 1871 Joseph Lister experimented with the antibacterial action on human tissue on what he called Penicillium glaucium - 1875 John Tyndall explained antibacterial action of the Penicillium fungus to the Royal Society - 1877 Louis Pasteur postulated that bacteria could kill other bacteria (anthrax bacilli) - 1897 Ernest Duchesne healed infected guinea pigs from typhoid using mould (Penicillium glaucium) - 1928 Sir Alexander Fleming discovered enzyme lysozyme and the antibiotic substance penicillin from the fungus Penicillium notatum While Fleming’s discovery was a major step towards antibiotics, it was not until the 1940s that penicillin could be used as a medicine. [ 2] Howard Florey and Ernst Chain were able to develop upon Fleming’s findings and ultimately isolate the active ingredient, penicillin, and create pills used to fight bacterial infections. [ 2]How It Works Penicillin works by preventing cells from dividing. It does not allow them to synthesize cell wall, and thus when the cells attempt to duplicate, they rupture and end up killing themselves. Because penicillin has such a strong focus on a bacteria’s cell wall, it is far more effective on Gram-positive organisms. When a Gram-positive organism attempts to duplicate itself, it must create more cell wall and split off, the penicillin causes there not to be any new cell wall, and instead of duplicating, the cell will simply rupture, effectively killing it. [ 3]Diseases Cured with Penicillin Penicillin antibiotics are most effective against gram-positive bacteria, e.g. the genera bacillus, clostridium, streptococcus, and staphylococcus). There are many different bacterial infections, diseases, and conditions that have been combated with the help of Penicillin."

However, if left untreated, it can cause serious health conditions and even death. According to the World Health Organization, each year there are an estimated 357 million new sexually transmitted infections worldwide from chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis and trichomoniasis. This staggering number includes the nearly 1 million pregnant women per year who have syphilis. Syphilis can be passed to an unborn baby. In 2012, syphilis was responsible for 350,000 adverse birth outcomes and stillbirths. ( 1, 2)Infectious disease specialists were once pleased with the near eradication of syphilis in the United States; less than 20 years ago, there were less than 10,000 cases annually. Today, however, it is a different story. Outbreaks of syphilis have made the news in the last couple of years, and we’ve seen a dramatic rise in reported cases. Syphilis spreads through physical contact with an infected partner, typically sexual contact although non-sexual transmission is also possible."

October 16, 2008 by Jane Sheppard 5 Comments Tweet Christa Novelli Mothering Magazine, Issue 121, Nov/Dec 2003Most women who have been pregnant in the last few years are familiar with the terms Group B Strep (for Group B Streptococcus), or GBS. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommend that all pregnant women be screened between weeks 35 and 37 of their pregnancies to determine if they are carriers of GBS. This is done by taking a swab of the pregnant woman’s vaginal and rectal areas. Studies show that approximately 30 percent of pregnant women are found to be colonized with GBS in one or both areas.1-5The CDC and ACOG advise all pregnant women who are found to be carriers of GBS to be treated with intravenous antibiotics during labor. Doctors and midwives have such great concern because GBS can be passed from the mother to the infant during delivery and can cause sepsis (a blood infection), pneumonia, and meningitis (an infection of the fluid and lining of the brain) in newborn infants. Therefore, most pregnant women who test positive for GBS choose to follow CDC and ACOG recommendations and attempt to avoid transmitting GBS to their newborns through treatment with IV antibiotics throughout their labors. Given all this, why would any woman choose not to accept IV antibiotics? But no woman can make a truly informed decision about this issue without taking a critical look at any recommendation that a third of all women and their infants be given antibiotics during labor.

Serologic tests can be negative if they are performed at the stage when lesions are present, and the VDRL test can be negative in patients with late syphilis. Cerebrospinal fluid examination is not required in patients with primary or secondary disease and no neurologic signs or symptoms, but it may be warranted in patients with late latent syphilis or in whom the duration of infection is unknown. Patients with penicillin allergy can be treated with alternative regimens if they have primary or secondary syphilis. Penicillin is the only effective drug for neurosyphilis; oral desensitization should be accomplished before treatment of penicillin-allergic patients. Other dilemmas may be encountered in the treatment of patients who have concurrent human immunodeficiency virus infection.

A diagnosis based only on the patient’s medical history and physical examination frequently is inaccurate. Therefore, all patients who have genital, anal, or perianal ulcers should be evaluated with a serologic test for syphilis and a diagnostic evaluation for genital herpes; in settings where chancroid is prevalent, a test for Haemophilus ducreyi should also be performed. Specific tests for evaluation of genital, anal, or perianal ulcers include 1) syphilis serology and darkfield examination; 2) culture for HSV or PCR testing for HSV; and 3) serologic testing for type-specific HSV antibody. No FDA-cleared PCR test to diagnose either herpes or syphilis is available in the United States; however, such testing can be performed by clinical laboratories that have developed their own tests and have conducted a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment (CLIA) verification study.

These organisms belong to the phylum, Actinobacteria, in the order Actinomycetales, and family, Actinomycetaceae. They are related to other genera like Corynebacterium, Propionobacterium, Mycobacteriium and Nocardia. More than thirty species of Actinomyces have been described thus far, at least half of which are pathogenic to humans ( r94 ). The most common agents in this disease are A. israelii and A. gerencseriae, but at least four other Actinomyces species ( A. naeslundii, A. viscosus, A. odontolyticus, and A. meyeri ), Propionibacterium propionicum (formerly Arachnia propionica ), and Bifidobacterium dentium (formerly Actinomyces eriksonii) may also be responsible for similar or identical clinical symptoms. Furthermore, eight new Actinobacillus species ( A. europaeus, A. funkei, A. graevenitzii, A. neuii, A. radicidentis, A. radingae, A. turicensis, and A.urogenitalis) ( 13, 22, 23, 44, 59, 64, 100) as well as the related taxon Actinobaculum schaalii ( 43) have recently been described that were all derived from clinically less specific inflammatory conditions, and two former Actinomyces species ( A. bernardiae and A. pyogenes) have been placed in the genus Arcanobacterium ( 72 ). Actinomyces bovis causes granulomatous infections in cattle; however, this species has never been proven as a human pathogen and earlier reports of human A. bovis infections most probably were due to A. israelii ( 5, 47 ). Ten additional Actinobacillus species have as yet solely been isolated from animal sources. Members of the genera Actinomyces, Actinobaculum, Propionibacterium, and Bifidobacterium are morphologically similar, anaerobic to less stringently anaerobic (provided by Fortner's method) ( 22) to capnophilic or aerotolerant (facultatively anaerobic), nonsporulating, gram-positive bacteria that tend to form branching rods and filaments and have a fermentative type of carbohydrate metabolism. Filamentous, microscopic colonies of Actinomyces species can be detected within 2 to 4 days of anaerobic incubation at 36 ± 1 °C."

Many school children can recite the basics. Penicillin was discovered in London in September of 1928. As the story goes, Dr. Alexander Fleming, the bacteriologist on duty at St. Mary’s Hospital, returned from a summer vacation in Scotland to find a messy lab bench and a good deal more. Upon examining some colonies of Staphylococcus aureus, Dr. Fleming noted that a mold called Penicillium notatum had contaminated his Petri dishes. After carefully placing the dishes under his microscope, he was amazed to find that the mold prevented the normal growth of the staphylococci. Sir Alexander Fleming (1881 – 1955), studying a test tube culture with a hand lens. Photo by Chris Ware/Getty Images. It took Fleming a few more weeks to grow enough of the persnickety mold so that he was able to confirm his findings. His conclusions turned out to be phenomenal: there was some factor in the Penicillium mold that not only inhibited the growth of the bacteria but, more important, might be harnessed to combat infectious diseases."

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. Syphilis can cause serious health sequelae if not adequately treated. How common is syphilis? During 2016, there were 88,042 reported new diagnoses of syphilis (all stages), compared to 39,513 estimated new diagnoses of HIV infection in 2015 and 468,514 cases of gonorrhea in 2016. 1, 2 Of syphilis cases, 27,814 were primary and secondary (P&S) syphilis, the earliest and most transmissible stages of syphilis. In 2016, the majority of P&S syphilis cases occurred among gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM). In 2016, MSM accounted for 80.6% of all P&S syphilis cases among males in which sex of sex partner was known and 58% of all P&S syphilis cases overall."

"text": "Diagnosis A thorough exam and appropriate diagnostic tests are essential for an accurate diagnosis. A misdiagnosed penicillin allergy may result in the use of less-appropriate or more-expensive antibiotics. Your doctor will conduct a physical examination, ask questions about your symptoms, and order additional tests. You may be referred to an allergy specialist (allergist) for these tests. These may include the following. Skin tests With a skin test, the allergist or nurse administers a small amount of the suspect penicillin to your skin with a tiny needle. A positive reaction to a test will cause a red, itchy, raised bump. A positive result indicates a high likelihood of penicillin allergy. A negative test result usually means you're not allergic to penicillin, but a negative result is more difficult to interpret because some kinds of drug reactions cannot be detected by skin tests. Graded challenge If the diagnosis of a penicillin allergy is uncertain, a graded drug challenge may be recommended."

Mailer, Jr., and Barbara Mason Historical Research and Narrative\"\"In organic chemistry there are many surprises and many disappointments; there are no miracles. \"\" John C. Sheehan, 1982T he story of penicillin continues to unfold. Authors have written any number of books and articles on the subject, and while most begin with Sir Alexander Fleming's discovery in 1928 and end with Sir Howard Florey's introduction of penicillin into clinical medicine in 1941 or John C. Sheehan's inorganic synthesis in 1957, broad differences of opinion exist between and among the principal scientists, governments, laboratories, and drug industries in Britain and the United States as to the details of this story. Over and above the microbiological and chemical achievements in penicillin's discovery are to be found aspects of competition between two nations and their scientists; political and wartime intrigue; competition for academic and financial rewards; the formidable challenge of producing penicillin in quantities needed to support the military in World War II; the complexities of cooperation among governmental, industrial, and academic entities; and human, legal, and national differences over patent rights and royalties in the postwar years. Despite these issues, the story of penicillin is one of scientific, medical, and industrial triumph that made heroes and saviors of the men and women who were associated with its development and use. Furthermore, no other chemotherapeutic agent did more to raise the professional status of the doctor in Western medicine. They are fungi. Beginnings Molds are kinds of plants, but they are like mushrooms and toadstools rather than like the grasses and garden plants. They are fungi. The main difference is that they do not produce seeds in little pods like peas and beans but instead release \"\"spores,\"\" tiny dust-like particles too small to be seen by the naked eye."

Antibiotics such as this one help decrease the chances for complications -- they also help decrease the severity and length of symptoms. Penicillin is most frequently used because it is effective, well tolerated, and inexpensive. There are two options for administering penicillin -- either orally (in the form of a pill) or in the form of an injection. Specifically, penicillin V is the treatment of choice for strep throat. It is taken by mouth either two or three times a day for 10 days. For adults, the standard dosage of penicillin to treat strep throat is 500 mg. As in adults, the treatment of choice for strep throat in children is oral penicillin. Children also take this medicine for 10 days, although in a smaller dosage than for adults (250 mg two to three times a day).

"text": "The WW2 Concentration Camp Where Anne Frank Died: Bergen-Belsen INSTANT ARTICLES WORLD WAR IIMay 29, 2017 Sarah Cooper SHARE: Facebook Twitter Bergen-Belsen is infamous around the world for the poor conditions the prisoners endured at the camp during World War Two. Disease and malnutrition were rife, and thousands of prisoners died due to poor hygiene and illness. The treatment of prisoners in the camp was heavily documented once the British liberated the place in 1945, with many photographs taken to record the atrocities and cruelty committed by the Nazis against the prisoners there. Many soldiers were scarred by the horrors they saw at Bergen-Belsen, however, much of the camp lifestyle and even many of the prisoners remain a mystery due to the Nazis destroying thousands of documents before liberation to hide their activities. Around 120,000 prisoners passed through Bergen-Belsen in the war, but 55,000 of them aren’t even known by name.1. It started as a camp to house workers building a military training area. Bergen-Belsen was initially a camp created to house the workers who were constructing what was the largest military complex in Germany at the time, a training camp for the army. They were there from 1935 when construction began until 1938/1939 when work was finished. The complex is now known as the Bergen-Hohne Training Area and is still in use today by NATO armed forces. The workers were kept in two camps, Fallingbostel, and the Bergen-Belsen Army Construction Camp."

It underwent a number of changes: for example, for a time it was used to house Jews whom the Germans hoped to exchange for ‘prominent Germans’ in Allied countries. At that stage conditions there were rather better than at most concentration camps. For a time it included a so-called ‘recovery camp’:“In March 1944, part of the camp was redesignated as an Erholungslager (\"\"recovery camp\"\"), where prisoners too sick to work were brought from other concentration camps. Supposedly, they were in Belsen to recover and then to return to their original camps, and to resume work; but many of them died in Belsen of disease, starvation, exhaustion and lack of medical attention”.

These were initially concentration camps due to the fact that they were used to concentrate enemies and certain groups of people in one place. Local SS and police forces set up these first camps. However, very soon the Nazi leadership began to develop a systematic and centrally controlled system of camps. Later, as the Nazi regime imposed their influence over countries they occupied, they developed a range of different types of camps. These were concentration camps, transit camps, forced-labour or work camps and extermination camps.

Nanette Konig, 85, had known Anne from school and had attended the teenager's birthday party where she received the infamous diary in which she went on to detail her life hiding from the Nazis. After being captured, the classmates spent around two years apart before being reunited in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in Germany.

The municipality covers an area of 465 square kilometres and is located on the peninsula of Bergenshalvøyen. The city centre and northern neighbourhoods are located on Byfjorden and the city is surrounded by mountains. For this reason, Bergen is known as the city of seven mountains. Many of the extra-municipal suburbs are located on islands. Bergen is the administrative centre of Hordaland and consists of eight boroughs—Arna, Årstad, Åsane, Bergenhus, Fana, Fyllingsdalen, Laksevåg and Ytrebygda. Trading in Bergen may have started as early as the 1020s, but the city was not incorporated until approximately 1070. It served as Norway's capital in the 13th century, and from the end of the 13th century became a bureau city of the Hanseatic League."

It culminated in what the Nazis called the 'Final Solution of the Jewish Question in Europe', in which six million Jews were murdered. The Jews figured in Nazi ideology as the arch-enemy of the Aryan race... The Jews were not the only victims of Nazism. It is estimated that as many as 15 million civilians were killed by this murderous and racist regime, including millions of Slavs and 'asiatics', 200,000 Gypsies and members of various other groups. Thousands of people, including Germans of African descent, were forcibly sterilised. These programmes are best seen as a series of linked genocides, each having its own history, background, purpose and significance in the Nazi scheme of things. The Holocaust was the biggest of the killing programmes and, in certain important ways, different from the others. The Jews figured in Nazi ideology as the arch-enemy of the 'Aryan race', and were targeted not merely for terror and repression but for complete extinction."

"text": "Types of camps On coming to power during 1933 the Nazis began to establish a network of camps. These were initially concentration camps due to the fact that they were used to concentrate enemies and certain groups of people in one place. Local SS and police forces set up these first camps. However, very soon the Nazi leadership began to develop a systematic and centrally controlled system of camps. Later, as the Nazi regime imposed their influence over countries they occupied, they developed a range of different types of camps. These were concentration camps, transit camps, forced-labour or work camps and extermination camps.

"text": "\"Music in the Holocaust The sufferings of European Jewry under the Nazi regime were reflected in their music and musical life. Music offered Jews a way to express their humanity in inhuman conditions, to escape from reality and give voice to their yearning for freedom, and to find comfort and hope. In addition to private occasions at which Jews played music, sang, and even danced, music was performed publicly in some ghettos. Street singers performed in Łódź, Warsaw, and Kraków, giving voice to the feelings of the ghettos’ inhabitants. One popular street performer in the Łódź ghetto was Yankele Hershkowitz (1910-1970), whose songs were known to many ghetto inhabitants. Professional musical performances were censored and controlled by the authorities--but the freedom to sing and compose music could not be totally censored or controlled. Thus, music became a symbol of freedom. In Warsaw, Adam Furmanski (1883-1943) organized small orchestras in cafés and soup kitchens. A symphonic orchestra played in the ghetto until April 1942, when the Nazi authorities forbade the performance of works by German composers. In Łódź, the head of the Jewish Council, Chaim Rumkowski, oversaw musical activities."

Its function during the Second World War was to assemble Roma and Dutch Jews for transport to other Nazi concentration camps. On 15 December 1938, the Dutch government closed its border to refugees. From then on, any refugees would not have any rights. In 1939, the Dutch government erected a refugee camp, Centraal Vluchtelingenkamp Westerbork, financed, ironically, partly by Dutch Jewry, in order to absorb fleeing Jews from Nazi Germany. The Jewish refugees were housed after they had tried in vain to escape Nazi terror in their homeland. During World War II, the Nazis took over the camp and turned it into a deportation camp. From this camp, 101,000 Dutch Jews and about 5,000 German Jews were deported to their deaths in Occupied Poland. In addition, there were about 400 Gypsies in the camp and, at the very end of the War, some 400 women from the resistance movement. In 1950, the Dutch government appointed the Jewish historian Jacques Presser to investigate the events connected with the massive deportation of Dutch Jewry and the extent of the collaboration by the Dutch non-Jewish population."

Diseases such as influenza, typhoid, trench foot, trench fever, malaria and diabetes were present during the war. Introduction Caused by exposure to wet and damp conditions. It can take about 3-6 months to fully recover It was bad for soldiers because it delayed them to fight in the war. Trench Foot Resulted in high fever, severe headaches and serious back and leg pains Had to be sent away from the trenches to recover which took about a month because it was highly contagious Recovery took a couple of months Trench Fever Deadly disease in WW1 It was one of the worst ones because once you get this disease your body cannot take and food or water. Bad hygiene and filthy flies were the main causes for this disease. Typhoid Diseases had a big influence on the war, killing many people and affecting many different countries due to the high death rate during this time."

"text": "\"Home » Classroom What Caused the War to Reach a Stalemate Along the Western Front in 1914? By Rita Kennedy Stalemate in 1914 marked the start of trench warfare in WW1. The First World War in France and Belgium was characterized by the static warfare in the long trench system known as the Western Front. However, the first weeks of the war had seen large-scale movements of troops in both France and Belgium. The Western Front was the result of a series of battles in the fall of 1914, and by Christmas the positions of the trenches were more-or-less fixed for the next three years. No German Breakthrough Germany’s plan for war with France involved a fast-moving sweep across Belgium and northern France to capture Paris and effectively knock France out of the conflict. The Germans expected this would take just six weeks to achieve, but in reality resistance from the Belgian and French armies slowed the German advance. The German army did reach a point just 30 miles from Paris but lacked the strength to make the final strike. Instead, combined French and British forces stopped the Germans at the Battle of the Marne in early September and forced them to retreat. Race to the Sea After the Battle of the Marne, the Germans and Allied forces attempted to gain the upper hand by outflanking each other's forces."

Leaders will gather at ceremonies around the world to mark 100 years since Britain joined World War One on August 4th 1914. Prime Minister David Cameron said: “A hundred years ago today Britain entered the First World War and we are marking the centenary to honour those who served, to remember those who died, and to ensure the lessons learnt live with us forever. ”Although fought on almost every continent, most of the fighting of WW1 took place in the trenches of Europe. Almost 10,000 kilometres of trenches were dug on both sides of the western front, generally around 10ft deep and 6ft wide, and as well as the threat of shelling and sniper attacks, soldiers were at the mercy of the weather. The trenches accumulated water quickly at the bottom when it rained, turning them into a squalid mud bath, infested with rodents and insects. Sometimes the water was up to waist height. The muddy conditions caused ‘trench foot’, which caused blisters, open sores, fungal infections and eventually led to gangrene, requiring amputation. One estimate suggests that 20,000 British casualties were caused by trench foot in 1914 alone."

After the war however, women could vote and there was a wide variety of jobs available for women.

The 1st August 1914 was a Saturday and no doubt the market seen in Ypres above was its usual busy self. In the fields near Mont St Eloi, on what would become the battlefields of Arras, the crops were getting ready to be harvested. Mont St Eloi In Albert the basilica (below), only two years old, would soon be ringing its bells to summon the ‘Ceux de 1914’ – the generation who went to war in France in 1914 – to uniform and the road to the front. Four years later all these places stood in ruins, now part of the ‘Zone Rouge’ – the Red Zone, that long swathe of Europe smashed to oblivion by the Great War.

It was very much a British and Commonwealth battle, with Canadians attacking to the North at Vimy Ridge, New Zealand tunnellers working beneath Arras and Australians on the flank at Bullecourt. Amongst the British divisions were all three Scottish formations: 9th (Scottish), 15th (Scottish) and 51st (Highland), so like Loos in 1915 it was also something of a ‘Scottish battle’ too. Arras turned into a bloody struggle, despite early success on this day in 1917 but aside from the success of the Canadians at Vimy and the terrible loss of Australians at Bullecourt – often wrongly seen as separate battles by some – it is little remembered and aside from books like my Walking Arras , Jeremy Banning & Peter Barton’s Arras 1917 and Jon Nicholl’s Cheerful Sacrifice it has rarely attracted the attention of Great War historians in print. As we move towards the WW1 centenary, hopefully that will change."

Sometimes sand bags would line the sides of the trench otherwise a kind latticework wall of hazel branches was used (a bit like hurdle fences). Planking would be laid in the base.

It consisted of a frontline trench, a support trench and a reserve trench. Connecting these trenches to one another were communication trenches, where men from one trench could easily communicate with the men within the other trenches. All trenches were designed to be deep enough to conceal the men from enemy fire.

Each trench contained a fire step, on which a soldier could fire at, or briefly observe the enemy trenches. The trenches also acquired a zigzagged look, which would unable an enemy troop to fire down the trenches. That is, if they were able to capture one. The troops also dug out listening posts, or saps, where they would listen for enemy movement within underground tunnels, or storming troops at night."

Aaron R. Fisher, Distinguished Service Cross Indiana War Memorial documentation: Aaron R. Fisher of Lyles, Indiana, enlisted in the US Army in 1911 and had risen to the rank of Sergeant before leaving for Europe on June 15, 1918. Shortly after arriving in France, Fisher was commissioned 2nd Lieutenant in the 366th Infantry Regiment of the 92nd Division. The 92nd then entered the French lines near Lesseaux. On September 3, Fisher displayed exceptional bravery in action when his position was attacked by a much larger German force. Despite being severely wounded in the initial onslaught, he refused to abandon his post, ordering his men to stand and fight. Although it appeared that they would quickly be overwhelmed, Fisher’s men fought on against impossible odds until an Allied counterattack drove off the enemy. Fisher was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for what U. S. Army called his “extraordinary heroism in action.” Furthermore, since Fisher's brave stand was made in support of America’s French allies, the French bestowed upon him the Croix de Guerre, acknowledging him as “an officer of admirable courage."

"text": "\"Arts & Humanities History To what extent did weapons and tactics change during WW1? Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The biggest change in the battlefield was the Maxim machine gun. Hiram Maxim, an American, first offered his gun to the US Army, but the old generals rejected it for two reasons. One reason was that they had taken money from the Colt's Manufacturing Company for their 'potato digger' gun that was such a piece of junk, but once bribed, they stayed bought: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File: M1895C... Relax, it's just a photo! To this day, arms merchants and defense contractors bribe the generals with money and promises of post-service jobs. Most arms merchants' executives are former generals, colonels, and admirals. Really. Another reason was the rate of fire of Maxim's gun. It was able to fire 10 rounds per SECOND, and the old generals thought the same thing they thought when shown the famous Henry rifle (the basis for the Winchester) in the 1860s: Them boys, they said, are gonna shoot too many bullets! Who's gonna pay for them?"

With the advent of machine-guns, rapid firing, breech-loaded artillery, and accurate, rapid-firing bolt action rifles, movement in the open was very costly. The trenches allowed soldiers to protect themselves from the direct fire weapons and to some degree from the indirect weapons, too.

For example, submarine. Sub meaning under, marine meaning water. Like a full-sized machine gun, a submachine gun (SMG for short) is capable of automatic fire. This means when you squeeze the trigger, the weapon will continue to fire until you release. What makes it different is the size of the weapon and the round it fires. An SMG typically fires a pistol round, such as a 9 mm. A machine gun fires larger rounds typically used by rifles, like the 5.56 mm or 7.62 mm NATO rounds. SMG rounds travel slower and are accurate only up to 100 yards. The SMG itself is much smaller than a machine gun and is typically magazine fed, as opposed to belt-fed like many modern MGs."

Flag Who was responsible for World War 1? Answered by The Wiki Answers ®Community Answers.com ® is making the world better one answer at a time. If, by Region, you mean Country the blame probably lies with the Austria/Hungarian Empire. Since they were keen to start a war with Serbia and the assasination of Crown Prince Ferdinand was just the excuse they were looking for. Unfortunately, for Austria/Hungary, Russia had pledged to come to the aid of any Slavic country threatened with war. Germany had entered into a Pact to come to the aid of Austria/Hungary in the event of them being attacked by Russia. France had agreed to go to war against Germany if Russia was threatened, and Britain promised to uphold the Neutrality of Holland, Belgium & Luxembourg. Once Autria/Hungary declared war on Serbia everything ran out of anyone's control. Most countries in Europe found it difficult to stay out of the fight, whether for ideological reasons or purely for territorial gain, and slowly but surely the whole of Europe was dragged into the war with the exception of Switzerland."

Most of the DTH HD service providers in India only have a few HD channels in their package. The bulk of the channels in a DTH connection in India will be in ordinary SD TV (Standard Definition TV). What the difference between HDTV and Standard TV is explained further down on this page. To enjoy watching HDTV you must have an HD or an HD ready TV. HD TV is wide screen TV as explained at the bottom of this page, but to summarise, the picture on the old picture tube TV of CRT TV has a width to height ratio of 4:3, that is if the TV screen is 40 centimeters wide then the height of the TV screen would be 30 cms; in an HDTV the width to height ratio is 16:9. So in an HDTV of same 30 cms screen height, the width would be 53.3cms instead of the 40 cms in an ordinary TV. Apart from the wider screen ratio of an HDTV the picture quality is much, much better as sown in the video below. The video below was a news broadcast of 1989 when HD TV was being born. It will definatly convince you of the vast superiority of HDTV over the old Standard Tv or SDTV."

The show is based on the hugely popular books by Terry Deary (who plays the occasional cameo!) and features animations by Martin Brown. The whole show from start to finish is just hilarious. I became addicted earlier this year watching repeats of the first series, and was overjoyed when the second series was aired a few months later. The sketches are incredibly clever - many of them are take-offs of popular shows such as Wife Swap, Ready Steady Cook and This Is Your Life. There's even a catchy, cleverly-written song in each episode which you'll find yourself humming about the house for days afterwards! It's great that the episodes are so funny but also of course it gets kids (and adults!) learning more about history which is no bad thing! And even though it is primarily aimed at children, it's obvious it's meant to entertain the grown-ups just as much!"

"text": "\"Xfinity: New Name for the Same Old Comcast? By Harry Mc Cracken | Thursday, February 4, 2010 at 2:56 pm Comcast, the nation’s dominant provider of cable TV and broadband services, has apparently decided it doesn’t like its 40-year-old moniker. The company isn’t changing its corporate name, but it’s announced plans to rebrand its consumer services–TV, Internet access, and phone–as Xfinity. ( The name has already been in use for the past six weeks for Comcast’s subscriber-only Internet TV service .) The Xfinity name will be rolled out to eleven cities next week, with more to come as the year progresses. Why would you change one of the best-known brand names in America today? “ This is about our product,” Comcast spokesperson Jennifer Khoury said in a statement. “ It is about providing our customers with products that just keep getting better. ”I suspect that most Comcast customers don’t care whether the service is called Comcast or Xfinity or Irving. When I lived in the suburbs of Boston, the cable provider started out as Continental Cablevision, renamed itself Media One, and then was bought by and renamed after AT&T. Today, it’s Comcast–but Boston is one of the first eleven Xfinity areas, so it’ll change again next week."

It was the first UHF television station in the United States to cease operation. Southwestern Virginia is very mountainous and the difficulties faced by UHF stations at the time due to the lack of television sets manufactured with built-in UHF tuners (which was not made a requirement until the Federal Communications Commission passed the All-Channel Receiver Act in 1961) were magnified by the area's rugged terrain. Its facilities were eventually sold to the Times-World Corporation to launch its new station, WDBJ-TV (channel 7), in October 1955."

The network's first live event was a semifinal game of the Ohio Valley Conference men's basketball tournament between Southeast Missouri State University and Eastern Kentucky University. The network was launched as a response to rival College Sports Television (CSTV) (now CBS Sports Network ). ESPN was also being investigated by the U. S. Justice Department on allegations of \"\"warehousing\"\" collegiate sporting events from certain conferences, or signing a deal with a conference for all their games, but only televising a small number and not allowing the conference to make other arrangements for television broadcasts. ESPN and XOS Technologies entered into a partnership for college athletics websites to compete directly with CSTV's growing internet presence. On August 28, 2006, ESPNU launched a new Sports Center spin-off focusing entirely on college sports."

The blackout, which has been ongoing since the week before Christmas, stemmed from a dispute over carriage fees for Fox News and Fox Business Network, along with newer, less-watched 21st Century Fox stations like FS1 and FXX. Just this week, Fox News had raised the stakes of its campaign to get viewers to drop Dish and switch to other pay-TV providers, enlisting star anchors Bill O’Reilly and Megyn Kelly to appear in an ad that accused Dish of “censoring” Fox’s content. “ They’re censoring what you see,” O’Reilly said to viewers in the ad. “ Enough is enough. ”Read the full press release from Fox below: DISH and FOX News Reach Content Carriage Agreement ENGLEWOOD, Colo. and NEW YORK, Jan. 15, 2015 – DISH Network L.

Photograph: Bbc/BBT he feedback from the BBC was unambiguous: \"\"We really like it, but we feel the poo quotient needs to be higher.\"\" Terry Deary, creator of the wildly successful Horrible Histories children's publishing franchise, is recalling the two-year journey to bring his books to the screen. \"\" At one time, it was going to be based on a ghost train at a deserted fairground carrying two children into the past. But the BBC, to its credit, was very adventurous and said that it wanted a comedy sketch-based format written by adult sketch-show writers. \"\" It was the right call. Since Horrible Histories first aired in 2009 on CBBC, the BBC's digital channel aimed at six- to 12-years-olds, it has been a huge hit with viewers and has won a slew of awards, including a Royal Television Society award for best children's programme earlier this week. But it isn't just children who have found themselves drawn to the show's Pythonesque sketches, which skip jauntily through the books' trademark themes such as the Rotten Romans and Groovy Greeks up to the Terrible Tudors and Vile Victorians. By the time the second series aired last summer, the programme had attracted a loyal audience of grown-ups, too; parents watching with their children at first, but soon followed by students and pensioners as it quickly developed into cult daytime viewing."

Other criticism has focused on issues of race and ethnicity in ESPN's varying mediated forms, as well as carriage fees and issues regarding the exportation of ESPN content. [ 2] Some critics argue that ESPN’s success is their ability to provide other enterprise and investigative sports news while competing with other hard sports-news-producing outlets such as Yahoo!

This lasagna recipe is a more sophisticated version that includes a creamy mushroom bechamel and a hearty tomato infused meat sauce. It is more than a meal, it is a celebration. Lasagna with Mushroom Bechamel Sauce Lasagna is another one of those dishes where, for me, a recipe is never in sight. Sometimes I will tour the North End of Boston going to Sulmona Meat Market to have Franco grind a 50-50 mix of beef and veal for some meatballs. And then walk on to see Joe at Pasquale's Pasta Shop (now moved to the Bricco complex) for some fresh pasta sheets and some of that amazing fresh ricotta cheese. Then on to Salumeria Italiana on Richmond St. where the wonderful aromas of cheese, salumi and freshly made antipasto pleasantly overcome you when you first walk in the door. Of course when you make lasagna it is a dish that must be shared with friends and family. So thanks to Jennifer for the bechamel tip. She is of Italian descent and always makes her amazing Christmas party lasagna with bechamel sauce."

Kentucky Hot Brown Ever had a Kentucky Hot Brown? Chances are if you've traveled to The Brown Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky you probably have, and though I've certainly been to Louisville, I've never been to The Brown Hotel, so I hadn't! In honor of the Kentucky Derby this weekend, which frankly has been kinda lost in the shuffle of Cinco de Mayo menus and Mother's Day, I thought I'd get this posted to share what all of the hub bub is about, and so I went straight to the source to find out how. A Kentucky Hot Brown is a sort of open-faced, hot turkey sandwich that comes with a history. Don't you just love food with a story? Invented at The Brown Hotel by Chef Fred Schmidt back in the 20s, it was intended for the late night dance crowd who apparently had grown tired of typical breakfast fare after a long night of dancing. Chef Schmidt decided to try serving a unique open-faced turkey sandwich that included bacon, and a delicate Mornay sauce, and the Hot Brown, was born! The original sandwich uses thick Texas toast slices, with the crusts trimmed, and only calls for one slice per sandwich. I substituted regular sandwich bread, because that is what I had on hand, and while the online recipe doesn't mention it, a source who has eaten this dish tells me that it is apparently served with both a slice of toast on the bottom, plus two toast points that are wedged into the side."

A: Quick Answer Lasagna, whether it has a meat or vegetable filling, is often served with a side of green salad or, in Italy, with a single vegetable, such as leeks in Tuscany. In keeping with the dish's Italian origins, recipes for vegetable lasagna tend to call for a mix of produce used in Mediterranean cuisine, such as courgette, butternut squash, artichoke, eggplant and spinach. Continue Reading Keep Learning How Do You Make Vegetable Lasagna? What Are Some Key Differences in Lasagna Recipes? What Side Dishes Go Well With Pierogi? Full Answer Lasagna can be made with a single vegetable, as is the case with roasted butternut squash lasagna, combined with cheese, butter, amaretti cookies and nutmeg. Alternatively, lasagna can be made with numerous different varieties of the same vegetable, such as mushroom or fungi. For a meat lasagna with a Bolognese sauce, some basic vegetables to add to the mix include onions, garlic, carrots, celery and tomatoes. For vegetable lasagnas, the Bolognese sauce can be adapted as a tomato Ragu with pureed eggplant."

"text": "\"The Five French Mother Sauces: The Mother Of All Resources May15201115By jacob burton Since we covered so much ground in the French Mother Sauce Series, both on the blog and podcast, I figured it would be a good idea to place all the information in one, easy to find post. The mother of all mother sauce resources if you will. So here it is; a list of the mother sauces with their corresponding podcast episodes, classic components, serving suggestions, and how to posts. But first, a quick history lesson. A Brief History of The Mother Sauces The French mother sauces were originally four base sauces set forth by Antonin Careme in the 19th century. Careme’s four original mother sauces were Allemande, Bechamel, Veloute and Espagnole. In the 20th century, Chef Auguste Escoffier demoted Allemande to a secondary sauce of Veloute, and added Sauce Tomat and Hollandaise.

"text": "How to Become a Saucier Tell us about yourself so we can find programs near you. Find Schools In its simplest form, an individual with the title of saucier is nothing more than a sauce cook. The imagery behind this description suggests a person guarding over several large pots all day, adding seasoning and other ingredients to a variety of sauces that will eventually be dished over various entrees. In reality, an individual granted the title of saucier performs a much more crucial role in the kitchen. Kitchen Brigade The term brigade d'cuisine was coined in the late 1800s by the French chef Georges Auguste Escoffier. Literally translated to 'kitchen brigade' it served to provide a more formalized, almost military, structure to the various members of the kitchen staff. This came in particularly helpful in the massive kitchens of the grand hotels at which Escoffier was employed. The term is still frequently used in France where the hotels and restaurants tend to offer some of the finest cuisines and employ the largest kitchens. While a kitchen brigade could contain a multitude of various positions, the top three roles were often the most crucial. At the head of the kitchen brigade was the chef d'cuisine, also known as the head chef, kitchen chef or the chief of the kitchen."

[ 4] Other recipes written in the century following the Liber de Coquina recommended boiling the pasta in a chicken broth and dressing it with cheese and chicken fat, or in one case walnuts, in a recipe adapted for the Lenten fast.

In this recipe, the halibut is poached in a mixture of dry white wine and finely chopped shallots.

While it looks disgusting, a sauce that has curdled during cooking isn't spoiled and won't make you sick. Robert L.

It can be expected to work because protein molecules need low acidity and calcium ions -- positively charged calcium atoms -- in order to aggregate into their tangled networks. The lemon juice's citric acid interferes with this aggregation in two ways: It increases the acidity and it ties up (chelates) the calcium ions.\"\" \"\" Curdle Hurdles,\"\" Robert L.

Veloute sauce is one of the five \"\"mother\"\" sauces of classic French cuisine. This means that once you know how to make veloute sauce, you will be able to create a number of other sauces that are derived from this one. To make veloute sauce, first of all a roux is prepared. This is done by mixing together equal amounts of flour and butter to form a paste and then cooking the paste for a few minutes until is browns slightly in colour. Advertisements At this point a light stock is added, the mixture is whisked or stirred until a sauce forms and thickens. The stock used can be a chicken, veal or fish stock, one that is light in colour. A veloute sauce made with chicken stock should ideally be served with chicken.

I also agree. I mean, just look at it: Plus, it’s all that cheese and cream! Obviously not the healthiest (and very much not vegan), but quite delicious. I’ve tried lightened up versions but it just doesn’t hit the spot!Now, for other foods I enjoy that feature spinach. Perhaps, spinach isn’t the main star, but they are a component: Vegetable Lasagnas I love lasagna and the only reason why I don’t make it as much (once every couple of months, really) is due to the cheese content and because it takes almost an hour to bake. Not to mention that hour it takes for my tomato sauce to simmer to perfection. I may add the spinach (chopped and wilted - fresh or frozen) to the sauce or mix it directly into the ricotta cheese mixture. Either way, it’s delectable."

D. A. M. Symptoms and Causes The origin of the pain is often unknown, and imaging studies may fail to determine its cause. Disk disease, spinal arthritis, and muscle spasms are the most common diagnoses. Other problems can also cause back pain, however. Muscle and Ligament Injuries/Lumbar Strain Strain and injury to the muscles and ligaments supporting the back are the major causes of low back pain. The pain is typically more spread out in the muscles next to the spine, and may be associated with spasms in those muscles. The pain may move to the buttocks but rarely any farther down the leg. Sciatica The sciatic nerve is a large nerve that starts in the lower back. It forms near the spine and is made up from branches of the roots of the lumbar spinal nerves. It travels through the pelvis and then deep into each buttock. It then travels down each leg."

However, once it starts going down the leg, then it's another matter. Take it seriously in the beginning so that these other disabling and painful symptoms begin. Dear Chiropractors, add your practice to our Directory The intervertebral space is filled with material that lies between each adjacent pair of bones in the spinal column; it can bulge and herniate quite commonly. Few of us escape occasional episodes. Mostly pain in the low back only, with the possibility of radiating down the leg, very rarely in the midback, but also quite commonly in the lower neck, with the possibility of pain and tingling in the arm. The spinal column is made up of 26 vertebrae that are strongly joined together with ligaments to permit forward and backward bending, side bending, and rotation of the spine. The facet joint, situated immediately behind the nerve root, helps to control and limit these movements. Each disc is composed of two parts: a gelatinous material not unlike egg white called the nucleus pulposus, surrounded by rings of a fibrous tissue called the annulus fibrosus. That gel can bulge and herniate through the surrounding rings."

Because the sciatic nerve is connected to and supplies the muscles on the knee and lower leg, extreme damage to the nerve can cause weakness in the knees, difficulty bending the knee, difficulty in bending the foot, and/or weakness in foot movements. It can also cause problems with reflexes, and the knee or leg may not respond properly when touched. Finally, patients may experience extreme pain or tingling as a result of sciatic nerve damage.

Symptoms of Sciatic Nerve Damage With damage to the sciatic nerve the patient may experience aches, tingling or burning in one or both legs. Pain may be local to one leg or to one side of the leg, hip, calf or soles of the feet, or pain may exist in both legs. When the damage to the sciatic nerve is extreme, patients may be unable to move their legs. When the nerve is damaged, pain may begin slowly and progressively worsen."

"text": "Slipped (Herniated) Disk Symptoms Causes Diagnosis Complications Treatment Outlook Prevention What is a slipped disk? Your spinal column is made up of a series of bones (vertebrae) stacked onto each other. From top to bottom, the column includes seven bones in the cervical spine, 12 in the thoracic spine, and five in the lumbar spine, followed by the sacrum and the coccyx at the base. These bones are cushioned by disks. The disks protect the bones by absorbing the shocks from daily activities like walking, lifting, and twisting. Need help covering the cost of your autoimmune treatment? Crowdfund money here »Each disk has two parts: a soft, gelatinous inner portion and a tough outer ring. Injury or weakness can cause the inner portion of the disk to protrude through the outer ring. This is known as a slipped, herniated, or prolapsed disk. This causes pain and discomfort."

Often, the term \"\"sciatica\"\" is confused with general back pain. However, sciatica is not just limited to the back. The sciatic nerve is the longest and widest nerve in the human body.

"text": "Low Back Pain and Lumbar Spine Disorders Authored by MCN Neurologists Low back pain is the evolutionary price that we humans have paid for going from a four-legged creature to an up-right, two legged one. And, it is an expensive price. A recent study places the costs – medical, surgical and lost income – generated by low back pain in excess of $90 billion a year. Low back pain is the most common reason for disability in individuals under the age of 45 years old. At some point during our lifetime, 80% of us will have had an episode of significant low back pain and, for 25% of us, the pain recurs within the year. Sources of Low Back Pain/Lumbar Spine Disorders An injury is the most common cause for low back pain. The injury may be significant, such as a fall, or trivial, such as turning or bending wrong. Sometimes no specific event triggers the low back pain. In this case, other causes, such as an infection or cancer, should be ruled out. We have many structures in our low back, also known as the lumbosacral region, which can generate pain."

It is called justice. It gives me great satisfaction to help a harmed client get their life back together physically and financially. In order to do this it is critical to be able to prove that the injury ( in many cases a back or neck disk injury) was caused by the automobile crash. Have you suffered a serious injury because of someone's negligence, or have you lost a loved one because of someone's carelessness? If so Contact Us Today for a no obligation opinion!Here's The Methodology Developed Over the Last 30Years To Prove Your Auto Crash Back Injury Educate myself about the medicine involved and how the medical specialists make their judgement Ultimately a doctor that treats my client is going to have to give me an opinion that the disk injury was caused by the car collision in question. I have to immerse myself in the medicine regarding the kinds of disk injuries and the kinds of evidence doctors look at to see if it was caused by trauma or was there another cause, such as wear and tear or the natural aging process. You need to know the difference between a bulging and herniated disc, as a bulge is more likely to be a common age related finding. ( Source Mayo Clinic ) Of interest is the illustration above (showing two vertebrae and one disk) calls it a bulging disk and I renamed it a herniated disk. Unfortunately many doctors use the terms interchangeably when they are two different entities."

Disk disease, spinal arthritis, and muscle spasms are the most common diagnoses. Other problems can also cause back pain, however. Muscle and Ligament Injuries/Lumbar Strain Strain and injury to the muscles and ligaments supporting the back are the major causes of low back pain. The pain is typically more spread out in the muscles next to the spine, and may be associated with spasms in those muscles. The pain may move to the buttocks but rarely any farther down the leg.

Further Reading A herniated disc occurs when the cushion-like cartilage (the disc) between the bones of the spine is torn, and the gelatin-like core of the disc leaks. Often mistakenly called a slipped disc, a herniated disc can be caused by sudden trauma or by long-term pressure on the spine. This condition most often affects people aged 30 to 50 years; men are twice as likely to be diagnosed as women. Repeated lifting, participating in weight-bearing sports, obesity, smoking, and poor posture are all risk factors for a herniated disc."

"text": "Print Overview Back pain is one of the most common reasons people go to the doctor or miss work and a leading cause of disability worldwide. Most people have back pain at least once. Fortunately, you can take measures to prevent or relieve most back pain episodes. If prevention fails, simple home treatment and proper body mechanics often will heal your back within a few weeks and keep it functional for the long haul. Surgery is rarely needed to treat back pain. Symptoms Signs and symptoms of back pain may include: Muscle ache Shooting or stabbing pain Pain that radiates down your leg Limited flexibility or range of motion of the back When to see a doctor Most back pain gradually improves with home treatment and self-care, usually within two weeks. If not, see your doctor. In rare cases, back pain can signal a serious medical problem. Seek immediate care if your back pain: Causes new bowel or bladder problems Is accompanied by fever Follows a fall, blow to your back or other injury Contact a doctor if your back pain: Is severe and doesn't improve with rest Spreads down one or both legs, especially if the pain extends below the knee Causes weakness, numbness or tingling in one or both legs Is accompanied by unexplained weight loss Also, see your doctor if you start having back pain for the first time after age 50, or if you have a history of cancer, osteoporosis, steroid use, or drug or alcohol abuse. Request an Appointment at Mayo Clinic Causes Back pain can come on suddenly and last less than six weeks (acute), which may be caused by a fall or heavy lifting."

"text": "Low Back Pain Kerry H. Levin, MDPublished: August 2010Contents Definition Low back pain can best be described in terms of specific accompanying features. Low back pain is acute if it has a duration of about 1 month or less. Chronic low back pain is usually defined by symptoms of two months or more. Both acute and chronic low back pain can be further defined by the presence or absence of neurologic symptoms and signs. Nonspecific or nonradicular low back pain is not associated with neurologic symptoms or signs. In general, the pain is localized to the spine or paraspinal regions (or both) and does not radiate into the leg. In general, nonspecific low back pain is not associated with spinal nerve root compression. Nonspecific low back pain might or might not be associated with significant pathology on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and is often a result of simple soft tissue disorders such as strain, but it can also be caused by serious medical disorders arising in the bony spine, parameningeal, or retroperitoneal regions. See Table 1 for the differential diagnosis for low back pain. Table 1 Differential Diagnosis of Low Back Pain Mechanical Causes Nonmechanical Causes Causes of Referred Pain Idiopathic (sprain, strain) Malignancy Pelvic disease (prostatitis, endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease)Spondylosis (disk, annulus, facet) Infection Renal disease (kidney stones, pyelonephritis, perinephric abscess)Compression fracture Inflammatory spondyloarthropathy (ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic spondylitis, Reiter’s syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease) Aortic aneurysm Traumatic fracture Osteochondrosis Gastrointestinal disease (pancreatitis, cholecystitis, penetrating ulcer)Alignment disorders (kyphosis, scoliosis, spondylolisthesis) Paget’s disease of bone© 2002 The Cleveland Clinic Foundation Low back pain accompanied by spinal nerve root damage is usually associated with neurologic signs or symptoms and is described as radiculopathy."

Acute back pain develops suddenly and lasts up to several weeks. Acute pain is the most common type of back pain. Subacute back pain is pain that lasts up to 3 months.

Symptoms can worsen over time. Spinal stenosis is most commonly caused by wear-and-tear changes in the spine related to osteoarthritis. In severe cases of spinal stenosis, doctors may recommend surgery to create additional space for the spinal cord or nerves.

Las Vegas hotels might have a lazy river or a wave pool, but that same pool might have a DJ and be filled with a drinking party crowd that you wouldn’t want your kids anywhere near. Below is our list of the best family pools in Las Vegas with details on what each pool area offers and why we think your family will enjoy spending the day there. Best Family Pools in Las Vegas on the Strip Mandalay Bay – Leading off our best family pools in Las Vegas list is the Mandalay Bay Beach, an amazing pool complex and our choice for the most fun and family friendly pool. This fantastic pool area has a few different spots to enjoy your day with your kids. First off is the beach area which has real sand and kind of makes you feel like you are on a tropical beach. Beyond that is the huge 1.6-million gallon Wave Pool which has fun waves, some up to six feet high, rolling toward you constantly. To the right of the wave pool is the Lazy River which is a quarter mile of gentle moving waters that you can float along. To the left of the wave pool is an area with shallow waters for the young kids. In addition to all of that, there are two more pools, Jacuzzi spas and a bar and grill."

Here's the official release from Universal: Universal Orlando Resort today announced a project of remarkable vision: to bring to life an entirely new water theme park experience. Called Volcano Bay at Universal Orlando Resort, it will join Universal Studios Florida and Universal’s Islands of Adventure and become the resort’s third incredibly immersive park. Universal’s Volcano Bay will be a place for the entire family. It will be a whole new generation of experience that reimagines what it means to be a water park. Imagine a place that offers radically innovative, thrilling attractions, peaceful moments of relaxation and an inspired guest experience that will forever change the perception of water theme parks. It will be set in a highly themed, completely immersive environment inspired by postcard-perfect tropical islands.

Thirty years ago, when I was a kid, you could get into the Magic Kingdom for just $18. Now, tickets cost $99 and up. But if you want to take the plunge, you might find that a few splurges are worth it. If you can splurge a bit on the luxury details, you'll get the luxury benefits, which can really pay off. To Disney or not to Disney? Check in, stay in It's long been the advice of every Disney travel guru on the planet that staying at a Disney World property improves your trip a thousand-fold. You get early access to the parks and easy transportation there, plus you're eating and breathing Disney 24/7, that wraparound experience that really makes it feel like vacation.

"text": "Iago First appearance Aladdin Created by Walt Disney Pictures Voiced by Gilbert Gottfried Iago (voiced by Gilbert Gottfried) is a fictional character in the 1992 Disney animated film Aladdin, a talking parrot, he is a Scarlet macaw species who served as a sidekick for Jafar. Iago later switched sides in The Return of Jafar, which makes him one of the few Disney villains or henchmen to become good (Anastasia, one of Cinderella's stepsisters from Cinderella was also reformed in her second movie, as did others such as Gantu, Vitani and the Outsiders, Megara and Denahi), although which his struggle against his power-hungry nature was a large part of the plot; he remained good in both the movie and the TV series, but he was still largely conniving, greedy, and cowardly. He is most likely named after the villain Iago in the play Othello, by William Shakespeare. His character is greedy, rude and obnoxious, but he's mostly harmless and has a good heart, which he keeps hidden deep, deep inside. In particularly desperate moments in the story when his friends are in danger and all is lost, he will usually at first act greedily, choosing to save himself (often along with some newly found treasure) while leaving his friends to their fate, but then, as he's walking away, he becomes conflicted and inevitably his heroic side gets the better of him forcing him to turn back, risk his life, lose his treasure, and save his friends, all the while grumbling about the stupidity of his selfless actions. Iago also gets easily frustrated, irritated, and fussy, and he is not the type who would want to openly show up his good side and is often rejects praise for his good deeds. His remarks are insulting yet hilarious and entertaining. The others take no notice of his insults, taking them in stride. His penchant for revenge is revealed in the velocity with which he propels crackers (formally fed forcibly to him) into the beard-encircled mouth of the jester-clad sultan In the TV series, several episodes featured Iago attempting to get rich off of any sort of treasure he can find, sometimes by trying to sneak treasure out of the Sultan's treasure room. Most of the time, Aladdin's mischievous pet monkey Abu accompanied Iago whenever the parrot started to scheme, though Abu's simple-mindedness often made things more troublesome for Iago."

"text": "Irony Definition of Irony Irony is a figure of speech in which words are used in such a way that their intended meaning is different from the actual meaning of the words. It may also be a situation that ends up in quite a different way than what is generally anticipated. In simple words, it is a difference between appearance and reality. Types of Irony On the grounds of the above definition, we distinguish two basic types of irony: (1) verbal irony, and (2) situational irony. Verbal irony involves what one does not mean. For example, when in response to a foolish idea, we say, “What a great idea!” This is verbal irony. Situational irony occurs when, for instance, a man is chuckling at the misfortune of another, even when the same misfortune is, unbeknownst to him, befalling him. Difference Between Dramatic Irony and Situational Irony Dramatic irony is frequently employed by writers in their works. In situational irony, both the characters and the audience are fully unaware of the implications of the real situation."

Some Goofy cartoons during his Everyman years depicted Goofy as being a father to a red-nosed Goofy Junior. Many fans believe that this character served as the inspiration for Max. In the poster for cartoons with Goofy Junior, Junior would look exactly like Max in his Goof Troop era. One notable aspect is that Max has appreciatively aged, in a fashion, during the course of his appearances, which is uncommon among most characters in the Mickey Mouse franchise."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search This article is about the Disney character. For the professional wrestler with this ring name, see Cynthia Peretti. Princess Jasmine Disney's Aladdin character First appearance Aladdin (1992)Created by Ron Clements John Musker Ted Elliott Terry Rossio Portrayed by Naomi Scott (live-action remake)Voiced by Linda Larkin (speaking) Lea Salonga (singing, Aladdin) Liz Callaway (singing, The Return of Jafar and Aladdin and the King of Thieves) Bobbi Page ( Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse)Information Title Princess Family The Sultan (father)Spouse (s) Aladdin Relatives Cassim (father-in-law)Princess Jasmine [1] [ self-published source] [2] is a fictional character who appears in Walt Disney Animation Studios ' 31st animated feature film Aladdin (1992). Voiced by American actress Linda Larkin – with a singing voice provided by Filipina singer Lea Salonga – Jasmine is the spirited Princess of Agrabah, who has grown weary of her life of palace confinement. Despite an age-old law stipulating that the princess must marry a prince in time for her upcoming birthday, Jasmine is instead determined to marry someone she loves for who he is as opposed to what he owns. Created by directors Ron Clements and John Musker with screenwriters Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, Jasmine is based on Badroulbadour, a princess who appears in the One Thousand and One Nights folktale \"\" Aladdin and the Magical Lamp \"\". Originally conceived as a spoiled, materialistic princess, the writers eventually re-wrote Jasmine into a stronger and more prominent heroine following the elimination of Aladdin's mother from the script, while borrowing story elements from the romantic comedy Roman Holiday (1953). Several months after securing the role, Larkin was nearly fired from the project because Disney executive Jeffrey Katzenberg felt that her voice was not suitable for a princess, but Clements and Musker managed to convince him otherwise. Discovered by casting director Albert Tavares, Salonga was cast as Jasmine's singing voice based on her performance in the musical Miss Saigon; this unprecedented casting decision made Jasmine the first Disney character to have her speaking and singing voices provided by two different actors. Animated by Mark Henn, Jasmine's design is an eclectic combination of unique sources, including an anonymous theme park guest, Henn's own sister, and actress Jennifer Connelly, while elements of the Taj Mahal were incorporated into the character's hair, clothing and physique."

After the latter died, Bruno and Cinderella grew up together under the hand of her evil stepmother, Lady Tremaine, who has two daughters, Anastasia and Drizella, and a cat, Lucifer, whom Bruno hates because of the way he treats Cinderella and his taunting. Personality Apart from his friendly nature, Bruno is very loyal and understanding to Cinderella. However, he has little patience for Lucifer, whom he doesn't like, which usually causes him to get sent out of the house due to Lady Tremaine's rules. At the end of the first movie, he gets his revenge by scaring Lucifer out the window. Physical appearance Bruno is a big dog with red-brown fur covering most of his body. He has a black nose, floppy ears, a tail, light-brown eyes, sharp nails that are usually always sticking out, and three little hairs like Goofy 's on his head.

When Cinderella wakes him up, he is happy to see her, but she then tells him how it is bad that he has caught Lucifer in his dream and that he should learn to be nice to cats, which is an idea he does not like."

Contents [ show]Background Rajah was originally a circus tiger as a cub, who found his way into the Sultan's palace after escaping the touring circus group during a visit to Agrabah. He was discovered by a, then, young Princess Jasmine, who assumed the cub was a gift from her deceased mother. As a child, Jasmine's mother told the princess stories of a star named \"\"Rajah\"\", prompting Jasmine to name her new cub in honor of those stories. Once the Sultan discovers Rajah, he expresses the need to have the latter return to the circus, though his mind is eventually changed and he manages to purchase Rajah from his original owner. [ 2]Personality Rajah is Jasmine's best friend and fierce protector. As such, he cares deeply for the princess, and repeatedly supports her throughout the course of the franchise, not once showing a hint of disloyalty or true aggression towards her (though he showed offense when Jasmine mentioned a lack of friends; absentmindedly forgetting Rajah for a brief moment). He is mostly known for being rather aggressive and intolerable, as he takes a disliking to anyone who annoys Jasmine, even slightly—including narcissistic suitors, \"\" Prince Ali \"\", and even the Sultan."

And it is to these that I am unfailingly dedicated. I was placed in front of them as a toddler, and happily danced around to the strains of “Under the Sea”, “Prince Ali”, “Whistle While You Work” and many others throughout my childhood. In my teenage years I pretended not to care for Disney at all, but all the while implored my parents to keep our otherwise-obsolete VHS player for far longer than technologically necessary so I could keep going back through our Disney back-catalogue. And now, less self-conscious as an adult, I’m happy to embrace Disney again once and for all - including making my very first, very excitable, trip to Disneyland Paris not all that long ago... So in Disney’s 90th anniversary week, here are my top 20 most iconic Disney characters. Disagree? Let us know by commenting at the bottom of this page. There’s nothing I love more than a Disney debate. And click here to send us your pictures of Disney Magic moments.1. Mickey and Minnie Mouse Animator Ub Iwerk’s 1928 creations are synonymous with Disney, and one of film’s most recognisable and lovable couples."

He is often called England 's national poet and the \"\"Bard of Avon\"\". Although he never existed during the time of movies or television, his name and works were used in some Disney movies and characters. Shakespeare's works have been adapted several times by Disney: Hamlet was adapted by Disney in The Lion King, whilst Romeo and Juliet has been adapted as The Lion King II: Simba's Pride and Gnomeo & Juliet. A Midsummer Night's Dream was adapted into Strange Magic, and various elements of his plays were added into Gargoyles .

The series is set after The Return of Jafar and picked up where the installment left off. Aladdin's TV series is considered one of Disney's finest TV animation work. [ 2] [3]The series was produced by Alan Zaslove and Tad Stones, who were already renowned for their work on Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers and Darkwing Duck. [ 4] Many of the films' stars provided the voices of their TV counterparts, with the notable exceptions of Dan Castellaneta filling in for Robin Williams in the Genie role (like in The Return of Jafar ), and Val Bettin as the Sultan (who replaced Douglas Seale after the original film). Unlike The Little Mermaid, the series does not feature any musical numbers. It led two direct-to-videos followed by: The Return of Jafar, was released on May 20, 1994, and Aladdin and the King of Thieves, was released on August 13, 1996. The series originally aired as a preview on The Disney Channel in early 1994, [5] and in September of that year it began airing concurrently on the syndicated The Disney Afternoon block [4] and on Saturday mornings on CBS (prior to Disney's purchase of rival ABC )."

Disney Akash Nikolas Apr 23, 2014 Culture Share Tweet…Linked In Email Print Text Size Like The Atlantic? Subscribe to The Atlantic Daily, our free weekday email newsletter. The culture warriors have decided: Disney’s Frozen is queer. Elsa hiding her ice-powers could be read as a metaphor for the closet, the Oscar-winning “Let it Go” plays like a coming-out anthem, and a character in the film evokes the question of whether homosexuality is a choice by inquiring of Elsa’s powers, “born with it or cursed?” Some liberals have praised the film for its subtext; some conservatives have denounced it. More on Frozen Frozen: Too Cynical? In Defense of Prince Charming How Parents Can Turn Frozen 's Big Twist Into a Teachable Moment But the most remarkable thing about queer readings of the film may be how unremarkable they really are. Through both its corporate practices and the content of its films, Disney for decades has implemented the so-called \"\"gay agenda\"\"—which is to say, helping make the world a more accepting place. To start in the most obvious place: As a business, Disney has long held a progressive attitude toward LGBT people."

Together, the two commonly engage in tea parties; most of which are to celebrate their \"\"unbirthdays\"\". While the Hatter is loud, eccentric, and insane like the rest of Wonderland's residents, he is also rather charming and can be mild-mannered from time to time, particularly when dealing with visitors such as Alice. According to Hatter, he and the March Hare never get compliments on their singing, and they're usually the only attendants at the frequent unbirthday parties, apparently making the duo outcasts in the realm of Wonderland."

And Pocahontas was the cheifs daughter which kind of made her a princess... show more2 following 19 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: I want to first start with saying Anastasia, Mulan, Pocahontas, Snow White and the rest are all fairy tales or legends that are MADE into animated movies by production companies like Disney. \"\" Disney Princess\"\" is a name of a franchise (for marketing purpose!) for the main female characters in the Disney movies. They don't have to literally be a princess. Mulan and Pocahontas are not princesses but they were in the Disney movies, as were Cinderella and Snow White. Which is why Disney dupped them as the Disney Princesses. Anastasia is a production of 20th Century Fox production, not Disney."

The castle is the first to represent all of the Disney Princesses, contrary to other parks. It is also the tallest Disney castle ever built. Contents [ show]Summary Being the largest, tallest Disney castle ever constructed, Enchanted Storybook Castle houses a variety of functional facilities including a walk-through attraction, a restaurant, a makeover boutique, an elaborate stage, and a boat ride that goes underneath the main level. In the main hall of the castle are mosaics depicting four Disney Princesses, representing the four seasons. With The Princess and the Frog representing Spring, Tangled representing Summer, Brave for Autumn, and Frozen for Winter. In the center, a golden chandelier cascades down from a regal blue ceiling shaped like a star that resembles a starry night sky. This is also the first castle in a Disney Park to have multiple main entrances from different sides, with elaborate walkways that all meet at the center rotunda. Contrary to Sleeping Beauty Castle, inspired by Germany's medieval Neuschwanstein Castle; Cinderella Castle, which borrowed styles from gothic French architecture; and Le Chateau de la Belle au Bois Dormant's whimsical curves and slender storybook figure; Enchanted Storybook Castle's overall look was inspired by Renaissance architecture. However, its design features numerous details and elements previously used in precedent Disney castles."

There has never been a list on Ballets. And I felt this was such a shame. Ballets have fallen off the cliff when it comes to popularity, especially here in America, where I live. The music in ballet is just as, if not more beautiful, than any piece of music ever written. When put together with flawless, graceful movements and wonderful spectacle, Ballets can be a sight and a sound that will move you to tears, to laughter and to emotions you have never felt before. Here is a list of the Ten Greatest Ballets.10Cinderella Choreography by Rostislav Zakharov, Music by Sergei Prokofievhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ww68J0Pi_-o Many different versions of this ballet exist, but the original was performed in 1945, in Moscow, Russia. Prokofiev is one of my favorite composers, with fantastic composing skills, and his Cinderella is no exception. Based on the fairy tale, the ballet is noted for its fantastic score and very humorous tone. The very beginning of the ballet, I think, is one of the most beautiful pieces of music and it’s virtually unknown.9Don Quixote Choreography By: Marius Petipa, Music By: Ludwig Minkushttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMOPF4WYYLE&feature=related Originally Performed in 1869, in Moscow, Russia, this beautiful ballet is based on the book “Don Quixote de la Mancha” by Miguel de Cervantes."

Voiced by American actress and singer Mandy Moore, Rapunzel is a young princess kept unaware of her royal heritage by a vain old woman named Mother Gothel, who raises her in a secluded tower in order to exploit her hair's healing abilities to remain young and beautiful forever. Created and animated by supervising animator Glen Keane, Rapunzel is loosely based on the title character of the fairy tale of the same name published by the Brothers Grimm. The character was adapted into a less passive heroine for the film. Critical reception of Rapunzel has been generally positive, with critics complimenting her spirited, lively personality and independence. The tenth Disney Princess, Rapunzel was officially inducted into the line-up on October 2, 2011, becoming the franchise's first computer-animated member. Her physical appearance and personality have drawn much comparison between her and preceding Disney Princess Ariel from The Little Mermaid (1989), by whom she was inspired.

Disney has become a well-integrated part of modern society because of their success in turning fairy tales into child friendly adventures. Disney used original fairy tales from around the world to create their Disney Princess movie franchise. Each Princess has their own hidden history, a storyline unexplored within their Disney film, that shows a more adult oriented story. In this article the first four Princesses’ (Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora, and Ariel) original stories and history will be explored in contrast to their movie counterparts. Snow White the firs official Disney Princess in the movie Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Snow White Snow White is the first Disney princess. Her film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was released in 1937 and was the first of its kind.

"text": "One thing that sets the Polynesian apart from not only the other Deluxe Resorts but even the other Monorail Resorts is its access to Disney transportation. You have the Resort Monorail located on the second floor of the Great Ceremonial House that makes a stop at the Grand Floridian, the Magic Kingdom, the Contemporary Resort and the Transportation and Ticket Center (TTC). You also have buses that you can board at the bus stop at the Polynesian. So you say the Grand Floridian and the Contemporary have all that too? Yes but the added bonus of staying at the Polynesian is the Transportation and Ticket Center is a short walk next door to the Polynesian which gives you quick access to the EPCOT Monorail or even the Express Monorail to the Magic Kingdom. If you don't want to walk you can ride the Resort Monorail around to the Transportation and Ticket Center and switch to the EPCOT Monorail but the walk is very short (6 minutes from the farthest longhouse). For longhouse map and names CLICK HERETo go to Disney Hollywood Studio, Disney Marketplace, Disney Springs, Animal Kingdom, Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon you will board the bus at the resort bus stop. To get to Typhoon Lagoon after 2 pm you will have to take the monorail to Epcot and transfer to a bus from there. To go to any of the other Disney Resorts you need to take the bus to Disney Springs and then pick up the resort bus to your resort of choice, or take a bus from the Magic Kingdom to any resort. One thing to remember about the Polynesian is that it is the second stop out of 4 stops for the monorail and the first stop for the bus."

"text": "Disney’s Animal Kingdom Unveils “Rivers of Light” Show May 7, 2014 | By Jena Pugh Now that New Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom ® is complete ( Seven Dwarfs Mine Train ride opens May 28) it’s time for Walt Disney World ® to start focusing on Animal Kingdom ® and their largest expansion in park history. Among the Avatar-themed land coming to the park in 2017 and the new Harambe Theater that will house “The Lion King” in Animal Kingdom’s ® Africa coming this summer will be a brand new nighttime spectacular that will light up the night sky above the park’s lake. The show is appropriately titled, “Rivers of Light.” Combining live music, floating lanterns, water screens and animal imagery, “Rivers of Light” promises to be unlike anything ever seen in Disney Parks. The show will magically come to life on the stage of the Discovery River, between Discovery Island and Expedition Everest. Other than concept art, no further details have been released about “Rivers of Light.” But if the show is anything like the artwork, guests can expect a stunning and extremely colorful show. The artwork depicts a magnificent scene full of horses galloping into the air, birds with outstretched wings taking flight, elephants and other large animals, all of which are standing on what looks like a raft or boat ready to take off into the night sky. The image also portrays floating lanterns all surrounded by vibrant colors of blues, pinks, greens and purples. In the center is a man or woman that looks to be directing the animals and on the sides are boats where more people stand pointing to the sky."

It was announced at D23 Expo 2015, and is produced by Gameloft. Contents [ show]Gameplay The game is basically the \"\"tycoon\"\" formula, where you get to design a theme park similar to the Magic Kingdom from Walt Disney World. To expand the park, the player has to undo a curse cast upon by Maleficent, as shown by the dark areas in the park. Characters Though the characters available in the game are limited, each character has a storyline that you can play through quests. Unlocking most characters costs magic, while unlocking premium 'extra' characters cost gems. Premium characters do not affect the overall storyline, but will begin to have their own quests after being unlocked. After unlocking a character, each character can level up by collecting the 'tokens' to do so. These are obtained by completing quests, buying with elixir, and winning in chests. Each level up will require more tokens, more magic, and more time than the previous level up."

Opened on October 1, 1971, the resort is owned and operated by Walt Disney Parks, Experiences and Consumer Products, a division of The Walt Disney Company. It was initially operated by Walt Disney World Company. The property covers 27,258 acres (43 sq mi; 110 km 2 ), featuring four theme parks, two water parks, twenty-seven themed resort hotels, nine non-Disney hotels, several golf courses, a camping resort, and other entertainment venues, including the outdoor shopping center Disney Springs. Designed to supplement Disneyland in Anaheim, California, which had opened in 1955, the complex was developed by Walt Disney in the 1960s. \"\" The Florida Project\"\", as it was known, was intended to present a distinct vision with its own diverse set of attractions. Walt Disney's original plans also called for the inclusion of an \"\" Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow \"\" (EPCOT), a planned community intended to serve as a test bed for new city living innovations. After extensive lobbying, the government of Florida created the Reedy Creek Improvement District, a special government district that essentially gave The Walt Disney Company the standard powers and autonomy of an incorporated city. Walt Disney died on December 15, 1966, during construction of the complex. Without Disney spearheading the construction, the company created a resort similar to Disneyland, abandoning experimental concepts for a planned community."

San Souci Portrayed by Liu Yifei ( Mulan, 2020)Voiced by Ming-Na Wen (speaking) Lea Salonga (singing)Information Aliases Fa Ping (male alter ego)Occupation Soldier Family Fa Zhou (father) Fa Li (mother)Spouse (s) Li Shang Children Lonnie (daughter; in Descendants only)Relatives Grandmother Fa (grandmother) General Li (father-in-law)Nationality Chinese Fa Mulan is a character, inspired by an actual historic figure, who appears in Walt Disney Pictures ' 36th animated feature film Mulan (1998), as well as its sequel Mulan II (2004). Her speaking voice is provided by actress Ming-Na Wen, while singer Lea Salonga provides the character's singing voice. Created by author Robert D. San Souci, Mulan is based on the legendary Chinese warrior Hua Mulan from the poem the Ballad of Mulan. The only child of an aging war veteran, Mulan disregards both tradition and the law by disguising herself as a man in order to enlist herself in the army in lieu of her feeble father. Disney had originally conceived Mulan as an oppressed young Chinese woman who ultimately elopes to Europe to be with a British prince. However, director Tony Bancroft, who was inspired by the well-being of his own daughters, wanted Mulan to be a different, unique kind of Disney heroine – one who is strong and independent, whose fate does not depend upon a male character. Thus, the relationship between Mulan and Captain Li Shang was relegated to that of a minor subplot, while Mulan's bravery and strength were emphasized in order to ensure that she remained the hero of her own story. Mulan's supervising animator was Mark Henn, who deliberately designed the character so that she would appear less feminine than her predecessors. Reception towards Mulan's personality has been generally positive, with critics praising her bravery and heroism."

Sally was created by Dr. Finkelstein, Halloween Town's resident mad scientist, yet their relationship is rather tense, as Finklestein insists on keeping Sally under lock and key, under the pretext of protecting her from the excitement of Halloween. However, Sally is restless, and is intrigued by the wonders of the outside world. It is this restlessness, or, more specifically, this desire for something better in her life, that draws her to Jack Skellington. In the beginning of the movie, she idolizes and admires Jack much like any of the other female members of Halloween Town; however, she quickly discovers that they are connected by the desire for something more in their lives, and her feelings for him intensify. The two refer to each other as \"\"friends\"\", though Jack seems unaware of her true feelings for him, as she is too shy to make them known to him other than through her sweet actions."

In case you were curious as to why you felt so connected to a certain Disney heroine, this list may help you understand. We have compiled which Disney Princess or heroine shares the same Myers Briggs type as you!INFJ- Elsa (Frozen)Elsa is a very introverted and independent character. She strives to make the people around her happy, and is constantly restraining her emotions for the sake of her kingdom. She is happiest when she can get away from everyone and safely be herself. She is very caring and wants to be close to her sister, but feels like she cannot do so because she may harm her. The past has taught her to restrain her emotions, simply because she has used her powers and accidentally harmed the ones she loves. Elsa is weary to never allow herself to harm another person again, and is very hard on herself because of this. ENFJ- Pocahontas (Pocahontas)Pocahontas is very warm and giving. She is an extremely selfless character, but she also stands up for what she believes in."

He was created by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks at the Walt Disney Studios in 1928. He's always made me feel young.. And when in a bad mood, just watch a Mickey cartoon and all is better +57No other cartoon can give you the same feelings of a good old Mickey Mouse short. I saw almost everything animated born between 1910 and 2000, and Mickey Mouse tops any character out there. He may not be the funniest or craziest in terms of hard laughs, but as Walt himself said, he's SO human that you can't not love him. His facial and body expression are unmatched in the whole cartoon history: that's why is funny to see his laid back, humanly heroic, sometimes forgetful, but always committed actions and adventures. He may seems a simple character, but he's one of the most unique cartoon personality of all time: as I said, no other cartoon can give you the same feelings of a good old Mickey Mouse short. Simple as that. +15I reckon everyone knows who he is, and that he is a star over all of the world +28He was the first Disney character so he should be famous - Gametheorysucksnew V 114 Comments Vote E2 Donald Duck Donald Duck is a cartoon character created in 1934 at Walt Disney Productions.

"text": "\"1:26The problem with Disney princess movies To modern eyes, the classic trio of Disney princess films — released in 1937, 1950 and 1959 — can seem painfully retrograde. Why are characters so obsessed with Snow White’s looks? Why doesn’t Cinderella have any talents or hobbies? And why doesn’t Sleeping Beauty do anything besides get drugged and await rescue? A generational gap divides Disney’s princess franchise. After 1959’s “Sleeping Beauty,” it took 30 years for the studio to produce another animated princess feature. The intervening decades saw dramatic change. Walt Disney died. Betty Friedan published “The Feminine Mystique.” The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. marched on Washington."

She is the daughter of Kashekim Nedakh, King of Atlantis . Contents [ show]Background Development One of the early concepts of Kida. From the beginning, the filmmakers wanted Kida to stand out from other Disney Princesses both in appearance and in personality. So as not to appear as another damsel in distress, they created her to be a warrior woman with strength to overcome hostility. The supervising animator of Kida was Randy Haycock. Randy further wanted to develop a unique appearance for Kida that made her different from the other Disney Princess. Going through various magazines and looking at models, he drew her with a slightly wider nose and full lips."

"text": "\"Here's what Carrie Fisher's Princess Leia taught us about female action heroes By Marie Solis | Dec. 28, 2016Carrie Fisher will forever be inextricable from Princess Leia, and Princess Leia, the heroine at the heart of the Star Wars films, will forever be bonded to the actress who played her. Perhaps there were times when Fisher wished she'd gotten more recognition for her books, Postcards from the Edge and Wishful Drinking, or for their respective screen adaptations and plays. Maybe she wished more people knew that she was one of Hollywood's top script doctors, helping the writers of films like Sister Act, Hook and The Wedding Singer , among about a dozen others. But for better or worse, Fisher will continue to be known best for her portrayal of Princess Leia, the character she created based on her feminist vision of how women could lead, fight and exist, both here on Earth and in a galaxy far, far away. Carrie Fisher CAP/PLF/Media Punch/APIn an interview with Rolling Stone in 1983, just after the release of that year's Return of the Jedi, Fisher provided readers with her own kind of thesis for Princess Leia. \"\" There are a lot of people who don't like my character in these movies; they think I'm some kind of space bitch,\"\" she told the magazine. \"\" She has no friends, no family; her planet was blown up in seconds — along with her hairdresser — so all she has is a cause. \"\"\"\" There are a lot of people who don't like my character in these movies; they think I'm some kind of space bitch. \"\" Tweet This series of events gave us Princess Leia, whose iconic buns kept her hair out of her face as she defeated Darth Vader, risked her life to destroy the Death Star, fought Storm Troopers and rescued Han Solo from Jabba the Hutt (not the other way around). If Princess Leia is seen as a \"\"space bitch,\"\" it's because she's neither a sex icon nor is she completely sexless; she's no damsel in distress, but she can't always evade being captured; she's far more than a \"\"love interest,\"\" but she ends up falling in love with her partner anyway."

"text": "\"in: Films, Disney Theatrical Films, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and 21 more Disney Golden Age Edit Comments (6) Share The Disney Golden Age refers to the beginning of the Disney Animated Canon when Walt Disney was still alive and all the films received critical acclaim despite struggles at the box office due to World War II and other problems. It is predicted that the era started when Disney made his first full-length animated feature, beginning with the film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in 1937, and ending in 1970 with The Aristocats, which is also said to be the start of another era known as the Disney Dark Age. However, it should be noted, by animation historians, movie critics and Disney fans, that The Aristocats is sometimes considered a part of the Disney Golden Age for a multitude of reasons. It was one of the last films Walt Disney worked on while he was still alive, the film was not only a critical and financially success, but is generally considered an iconic film. The animated films released during this period include Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs ( 1937 ), Pinocchio ( 1940 ), Fantasia (1940), Dumbo ( 1941 ), Bambi ( 1942 ), Saludos Amigos (1942), The Three Caballeros ( 1944 ), Make Mine Music ( 1946 ), Fun and Fancy Free ( 1947 ), Melody Time ( 1948 ), The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad ( 1949 ), Cinderella ( 1950 ), Alice in Wonderland ( 1951 ), Peter Pan ( 1953 ), Lady and the Tramp ( 1955 ), Sleeping Beauty ( 1959 ), One Hundred and One Dalmatians ( 1961 ), The Sword in the Stone ( 1963 ), and The Jungle Book ( 1967 ). Contents [ show]History In 1934, Walt Disney gathered several key staff members and announced his plans to make his first feature animated film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The production was dubbed \"\"Disney's Folly\"\" due to many doubting its success. The film became the first animated feature in English and in Technicolor. Silly Symphonies such as The Goddess of Spring ( 1934) and The Old Mill ( 1937) served as experimentation grounds for new techniques for the production. Walt Disney introduced each of the Seven Dwarfs in a scene from the original 1937 Snow White theatrical trailer."

It is one of the tales in The Book of One Thousand and One Nights (\"\"The Arabian Nights\"\"), and one of the best known, although it was actually added to the collection in the 18th century by Frenchman Antoine Galland. Contents [ show]Plot summary Aladdin is an impoverished young ne'er-do-well in a Chinese town, who is recruited by a sorcerer from the Maghreb, who passes himself off as the brother of Aladdin's late father Qaseem, convincing Aladdin and his mother of his goodwill by apparently making arrangements to set up the lad as a wealthy merchant. The sorcerer's real motive is to persuade young Aladdin to retrieve a wonderful oil lamp from a booby-trapped magic cave of wonder. After the sorcerer attempts to double-cross him, Aladdin finds himself trapped in the cave. Fortunately, Aladdin retains a magic ring lent to him by the sorcerer as protection. When he rubs his hands in despair, he inadvertently rubs the ring, and a jinn, or \"\"genie\"\", appears, who takes him home to his mother. Aladdin is still carrying the lamp, and when his mother tries to clean it, a second, far more powerful genie appears, who is bound to do the bidding of the person holding the lamp. With the aid of the genie of the lamp, Aladdin becomes rich and powerful and marries Princess Badroulbadour, the Emperor's daughter (after magically foiling her marriage to the vizier's son). The genie builds Aladdin a wonderful palace – a far more magnificent one than that of the Emperor himself."

"text": "\"in: Character lists, Disney Villains List of Disney villains Redirected from List of Disney Villains Edit Comments (31) Share This list is incomplete. You can help by adding to it. Below is a list of the villains featured in Disney media. Ever since Walt Disney created Steamboat Willie and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, there have always been villains raining on a hero's parade. Whether animated or live-action, the villain has always fought the hero/heroine or just made their life a misery, the final usually featuring the primary villain going somewhat psychotic or super powered. Disney's gallery of rogues is one of the best known ones, and most of the villains from the animated movies are the favorites among fans. It should also be noted that not every \"\"villain\"\" in the list below is considered a true villain, but are still included because they antagonize the protagonists. The term \"\"villain\"\" and \"\"antagonist\"\" are not the same thing: while villains are generally antagonists, antagonists are generally not always villains.

"text": "\"Pacific Standard, the new banner formed by Reese Witherspoon and Bruna Papandrea, has picked up the rights to a children’s book series titled Pennyroyal’s Princess Boot Camp. The books hail from M. A. Larson, who once was an assistant to Mike Nichols and now works in animation. Witherspoon will produce the adaptation with Papandrea and is attached to play a supporting role. Princess Boot Camp is described as is a modern fairy tale about a school that shapes girls into warrior princesses to battle against an ever-growing terror of wicked witches. PHOTOS: 10 Biggest Book-to-Big Screen Adaptations of the Past 25 Years The first book in the series is the debut novel by Larson, a Minnesota native who studied filmmaking at the University of Miami and became Nichols’ assistant when the legendary producer-director-writer was working on Angels in America, Closer and the Broadway musical Spamalot. Larson later moved to Los Angeles, where he was a staff writer on Cartoon Network shows and has been writing for such kid-oriented channels as Disney XD, Nickelodeon and Discovery Kids. Princess Boot Camp recently was picked up by Putnam Children’s as a two-book series. Pacific Standard is developing the books as a potential franchise. It's the first official project from the fledgling company. “ Finally, there is a princess story that reflects the values young women truly want to embody,” Witherspoon said. “"

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search This article uses Western name order when mentioning individuals. Mulan Mulan First appearance Mulan (1998)Created by Robert D. San Souci Portrayed by Liu Yifei ( Mulan, 2020)Voiced by Ming-Na Wen (speaking) Lea Salonga (singing)Information Aliases Fa Ping (male alter ego)Occupation Soldier Family Fa Zhou (father) Fa Li (mother)Spouse (s) Li Shang Children Lonnie (daughter; in Descendants only)Relatives Grandmother Fa (grandmother) General Li (father-in-law)Nationality Chinese Fa Mulan is a character, inspired by an actual historic figure, who appears in Walt Disney Pictures ' 36th animated feature film Mulan (1998), as well as its sequel Mulan II (2004). Her speaking voice is provided by actress Ming-Na Wen, while singer Lea Salonga provides the character's singing voice. Created by author Robert D. San Souci, Mulan is based on the legendary Chinese warrior Hua Mulan from the poem the Ballad of Mulan. The only child of an aging war veteran, Mulan disregards both tradition and the law by disguising herself as a man in order to enlist herself in the army in lieu of her feeble father. Disney had originally conceived Mulan as an oppressed young Chinese woman who ultimately elopes to Europe to be with a British prince. However, director Tony Bancroft, who was inspired by the well-being of his own daughters, wanted Mulan to be a different, unique kind of Disney heroine – one who is strong and independent, whose fate does not depend upon a male character. Thus, the relationship between Mulan and Captain Li Shang was relegated to that of a minor subplot, while Mulan's bravery and strength were emphasized in order to ensure that she remained the hero of her own story. Mulan's supervising animator was Mark Henn, who deliberately designed the character so that she would appear less feminine than her predecessors. Reception towards Mulan's personality has been generally positive, with critics praising her bravery and heroism."

"text": "\"Today’s News Exclusive: Disney Channel Orders New Sitcom Starring Zendaya By Michael Schneider | May 8, 2014 9:33 AM EDTZendaya Actress/singer Zendaya ( Shake It Up) is returning to Disney Channel to lead the cast of the new family comedy K. C. Undercover. In the series, set to premiere in early 2015, she stars as K. C. Cooper, a high school student training to follow in her parents' footsteps as an undercover spy. Kadeem Hardison ( A Different World) and Tammy Townsend ( The Client List) play her parents, Craig and Kira Cooper. The show also features Kamil Mc Fadden ( House of Payne) and Veronica Dunne ( Our Wild Hearts ). Production begins this summer; Zendaya will also receive a co-producer title on the show. Zendaya spent three years on Shake It Up, Disney Channel's sitcom about two best friends who land a slot on a TV dance show. The actress parlayed that fame into becoming a contestant on the actual ABC reality competition Dancing With the Stars. Zendaya, the show's youngest contestant yet (at age 16), ultimately was the runner-up behind that season's winner, Kellie Pickler. Next up, Zendaya stars in the Disney Channel original movie Zapped, which premieres on June 27 at 8/7c. She also released her debut record last year, a self-titled CD that yielded the hit single \"\"Replay."

C. under my wing,” Ross told Hollywood Life.com. “ I’m kind of teaching her the ropes because she’s still fairly new and I was named ‘Junior Spy of the Year,’ so I know a bunch of martial arts and I’m a little, let’s just say, confident.

Select your browser plugin to view instructions: Ad Block Adblock Plus By Adam Holmes 0 Comments2 years ago After debuting in Captain America: Civil War this May, Tom Holland’s Spider-Man is swinging into theaters again next year for his own movie, but details regarding his supporting cast have been sparse. Last summer, it was announced that Marisa Tomei will play Peter Parker’s Aunt May, and eight months later, now there’s word that singer and Disney Channel star Zendaya has been added to the Wall-Crawler’s third reboot. Being among the actresses who have been quietly testing for the movie, Deadline has heard that Zendaya has scored a \"\"key role\"\" in Spider-Man ’s latest solo adventure as a character named Michelle. No details were provided about whether she’s playing the romantic lead, but the report notes that it doesn’t sound like it. Given how secretive these superhero movie castings can sometimes be, it wouldn’t be surprising if \"\"Michelle\"\" is just a pseudonym for someone from the comics, but it may be a while until Marvel and Sony are forthcoming about how she’s specifically involved. Assuming that Zendaya’s Michelle not being the love interest in the new Spider-Man movie is true, that means we can rule her out as either Gwen Stacy or Mary Jane Watson, but there are still a few options. Maybe she’s playing Peter ’s classmate Liz Allen, or Daily Bugle employee Betty Brant. Depending on how they might set up a potential sequel, it’s even plausible that she’s Felicia Hardy before she becomes Black Cat."

"text": "\"How Much Does A Disney World Vacation Cost? Mar 8, 2013 4:23:00 PM / by Sally Black Tweet This is obviously an important question parents need to know when they are considering taking their family on a Disney World Vacation. How do you know if a Disney World vacation is affordable? This is a very tricky question to answer. It's not because we're trying to be shady or elusive. It's because there are SO MANY variables that all effect the ultimate price that you will pay for a Disney World trip. Variables like time of travel, number of people traveling, ages of your children, transportation costs, length of stay and level of hotel ammenities will all effect the final price you pay. The good news is that Disney World Vacation is definetly not a \"\"one size fits all\"\" vacation. It's actually mind boggling the amount of vacation choices that are available. The good news is a Disney world vacation can be tailor made to custom fit the exact needs of your family and budget."

Can you really get free food at Disney? The answer is – yes, sort of. Let me begin with a quick overview of the Disney Dining Plan, because that’s really where this whole thing starts. Simplifying the Disney Dining Plan With the Disney Dining Plan (or DDP), you are purchasing a certain number of meals ahead of time on a \"\"voucher/credit system.\"\" For each night of your stay, each guest on your resort reservation receives an allotment of quick service meals (similar to fast food), table service (sit-down) meals, and snacks; the number of which is dependent on which specific plan you choose. Most, but not all, restaurants are included - here's a list of participating locations . Disney offers a variety of Dining Plans. We have a great overview of each plan’s details here, but here’s a quick run-down of what you get with each plan: Quick-Service Dining Plan:2 quick-service meals, per night of your resort stay2 snacks, per night of your resort stay1 refillable mug, per guest Disney Dining Plan:1 table-service meal, per night of your resort stay1 counter service meal, per night of your resort stay2 snacks, per night of your resort stay1 refillable mug, per guest Deluxe Dining Plan:3 meals (quick-service or table-service), per night of your resort stay2 snacks, per night of your resort stay1 refillable mug, per guest A lot of people really like the Disney Dining Plan because it allows them to easily budget for their dining in advance. Instead of having to look through the menus and decide what they can afford to order at each restaurant, they know that they will pay XX amount per day with the Dining Plan."

These are the main expense categories we'll look at: Transportation - road trip expenses, plane tickets, train tickets If driving, check out Gas Buddy.com to help compute road trip costs. If flying, check Hopper's Airline Fee Calculator to help you budget. If flying and staying offsite, be sure to factor in rental car or car service costs.

"text": "\"Theme Park Insider - July 2012Robert Niles Which Walt Disney World ticket should I buy? July 3, 2012, 2:22 PM · Thinking about an Orlando theme park vacation? Let us help you get the best deal for your budget with some advice on picking the right Walt Disney World ticket package. First, you're smart to be thinking about this decision before you travel to Orlando. Of all the potentially bad decisions you can make when buying a ticket to Disney World, the absolute worst to is to wait to get your tickets when you arrive at Disney. You'll waste time in a long line at the ticket booths, spend the highest possible price for you tickets, and probably end up making a rushed decision about all the available options, anyway. Instead, do your research and buy your tickets in advance, so you can go straight into the park when it opens on your first morning in Orlando, allowing you to hit many of the most popular rides before lines build up later in day. The Walt Disney World Resort includes four theme parks (none of them named \"\"Disney World,\"\" by the way - the original park with the big castle is called \"\"The Magic Kingdom\"\"), two water parks, an outdoor shopping mall, golf courses, and a bunch of hotels. It sells theme park tickets good for one to up to 10 days, with a variety of extra options we'll explain below. And Disney isn't the only theme park resort in Central Florida."

"text": "\"Theme Park Insider - February 2015Robert Niles Universal Orlando Raises Ticket Prices, Up to $102 a Day February 26, 2015, 8:57 AM · As predicted, the Universal Orlando Resort raised its theme park ticket prices today, four days after rival Disney raised its prices. Universal also broke the $100 a day barrier, with a day at either of its parks now costing $102, before tax. Here are the new theme park ticket prices at the Universal Orlando Resort: One day, one park: $102, was $96 One day, Park-to-Park: $147, was $136Two days, one park per day: $149.99 online ($75/day), $169.99 at the gate, was $135.99/$155.99 Two days, Park-to-Park: $194.99 online ($97.50/day), $214.99 at the gate, was $175.99/$195.99Four days, one park per day: $169.99 online ($42.50/day), $189.99 at the gate, was $155.99/$175.99 Four days, Park-to-Park: $214.99 online ($53.75/day), $234.99 at the gate, was $195.99/$215.99Power Pass (blockout days): $214.99, $189.99 for Florida residents Preferred Pass: $294.99, $259.99 for Florida residents, unchanged. Universal Orlando visitors need the Park-to-Park option in order to ride the Hogwarts Express, which shuttles visitors between the Wizarding World of Harry Potter lands in Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure. The TL/DR; here is the Universal Orlando is more expensive than Walt Disney World (in general) for a one- or two -day visit (corrected - see comments! ), but becomes significantly less expensive than Disney for longer visits, and especially so on annual passes.

Tweet Replies (22)Robert Niles February 26, 2015 at 12:06 PM · I think that Universal's ticket structure reflects its attempt to entice Orlando visitors to consider Universal Orlando as their primary vacation destination, rather than seeing it as a one or two-day diversion from a Walt Disney World vacation. If you're just going to do Universal as a one-off from Disney, you're going to pay through the nose for that. But if you choose Universal as your \"\"home base\"\" in Orlando, it will offer you some sweet per-day prices in return."

February 8, 2014, 1:07 PM · With Frozen overtaking The Lion King as Disney's top-grossing animated film of all time (not adjusting for inflation), Disney executives cannot wait to find new ways to extend their income from this wildly popular movie. Theme park presence will be part of that mix. Disney's already introduced Frozen meet-and-greets in Disneyland's Fantasyland and Epcot's Norway pavilion at Walt Disney World. And Disney CEO Bob Iger has promised more for Frozen. So theme park fans are led to ask: What would a Frozen theme park attraction look like? And where would it go? We've already addressed some of the problems with placing a Frozen attraction in Epcot's Norway pavilion. Furthermore, Frozen is set in a mythical kingdom called Arendelle, not Norway. Sure, both have snow and ice, but if that's the sole criterion for placement, you might as well put Disney's Frozen ride in the Hoth section of Star Wars Land as in Norway. ("

"text": "September 2018 at Disney World By Tom Bricker Disney Tips & Tricks, Planning 58 Comments Tweet Pin It Relative to summer, September is a good month to visit Walt Disney World thanks to improved weather, lower crowds, and fun seasonal events. It’s the first full month of school being back in session, and crowds tend to be light after the Labor Day holiday and stay low until the end of the month. This is great news for those of you who want to experience the new attractions at Walt Disney World (like Toy Story Land) without the insane lines the Summer 2018 season will bring for those new attractions. While you’ll still have to wait in a lengthy line for Slinky Dog Dash, it won’t be quite as bad as the 2+ hour waits that are predicted for busy summer days. September is arguably the best month of the year in terms of crowds (check out our When To Visit Walt Disney World post for the best and worst months of the year) and weather is the only thing that prevents it from being the best overall month to visit. While every park isn’t going to be “dead” every day of the week, if you plan well, you can really avoid crowds during a September Walt Disney World visit. That also means shorter September 2018 park hours, but you can’t really argue with accomplishing more in less time. The downside comes in terms of weather. September is better than June through August, but it’s still a bit of a gamble. It’s a lot like May in this regard: it can be temperate and pleasant, or insanely hot."

"text": "Loud chewing by a friend, coworker or that random stranger next to you in line at the post office can drive even the most level-headed person up a wall. But for some people, the noise becomes entirely unbearable, spurring an extreme fight-or-flight response. The condition is called misophonia — literally “hatred of sound” — and occurs when a common noise, whether it’s something like a person chewing loudly, water dripping or someone “ahem”-ing, causes you to become anxious or angry, more so than a typical response, TODAY reported. It can also be known as Selective Sound Sensitivity Syndrome (4S) or hyperacusis. “Everything I have turns into a boiling pot of rage, and then I have to talk myself down,” Adah Siganoff, who suffers from misophonia, told TODAY. Siganoff has to sit in a separate room from her husband during dinner time because the sound of chewing gets to her so much. Most people develop misophonia in late childhood, around the age of 10, and it can get worse as the person gets older, with more sounds becoming triggers, The New York Times reported. Not much research has been done on the condition, and some doctors still have never heard of it. People with the disorder are not bothered by the loudness of sound — rather, the softer, repetitive, common sounds are the ones that drive them up the wall, according to The New York Times. “What they experience is kind of a Mount St. Helens eruption of emotions and feelings associated with these sounds,” Dr. Marsha Johnson, of the Oregon Tinnitus & Hyperacusis Treatment Clinic, told TODAY."

You may have a condition called Tinnitus, and there is a wide array of causes. Exposure to sudden, loud music or explosive noises can cause Tinnitus, a nerve disorder that involves a consistent ringing sound in a person's ears. At its worse, Tinnitus can lead to deafness. Tinnitus affects one in 10 people, and can range from mild to chronic. While it is a common problem for veterans and the elderly, other common causes include whiplash or even dental work. While it is a difficult phenomenon for Western and East Asian medicine doctors to treat, tinnitus is not incurable. In Chinese medicine, chronic Tinnitus is believed to be caused by kidney weakness, according to Pacific College of Oriental Medicine Faculty Member Dr. Mohammed Javaherian. Acupuncture is recommended and treatments will focus most likely on the kidney meridians, as well as on points along the liver and gallbladder meridians to help strengthen the root of the problem."

Many people have slight problems with their jaw joint, which is formally known as the temporomandibular joint, or TMJ for short. Whenever we want to open our mouth, our jaw glides down and forward to allow our mouth to open. The rounded end of the jaw bone that glides down is called the condyle. Between the condyle and our skull, there is a small, soft, lubricated disk that allows our jaw to open smoothly. This is called the articular disk. Sometimes, that disk may not be big enough, or it may not be the right shape to allow the jaw bone to smoothly glide forward and down when you open your mouth. When this happens, it is a condition known as crepitus. Crepitus is a word that is used to describe the grating, crackling, and/or popping sounds that are heard around people’s joints. Unfortunately, not everyone has jaw joints."

The sounds of other people eating — chewing, chomping, slurping, gurgling — can send them into an instantaneous, blood-boiling rage. Or as Adah Siganoff put it, “rage, panic, fear, terror and anger, all mixed together. ”“The reaction is irrational,” said Ms. Siganoff, 52, of Alpine, Calif. “It is typical fight or flight” — so pronounced that she no longer eats with her husband. Many people can be driven to distraction by certain small sounds that do not seem to bother others — gum chewing, footsteps, humming. But sufferers of misophonia, a newly recognized condition that remains little studied and poorly understood, take the problem to a higher level. They also follow a strikingly consistent pattern, experts say. The condition almost always begins in late childhood or early adolescence and worsens over time, often expanding to include more trigger sounds, usually those of eating and breathing. “I don’t think 8- or 9-year-olds choose to wake up one morning and say, ‘Today my dad’s chewing is going to drive me insane,’ ” said Marsha Johnson, an audiologist in Portland, Ore., who runs an online forum for people with misophonia."

Ear pain may be dull, sharp, or burning, and it may feel constant or come and go. Pain in the ear can have multiple causes. It can be an early sign of colds, flu, or infection. If you have an ear infection, fever and temporary hearing loss may occur. Earaches in Babies and Children Earaches and ear pain in children are a fact of life for parents and are one of the most common reasons they call their pediatrician after hours. Experts estimate that 3 out of 4 babies develop ear infections, when fluid in the middle ear builds up and inflammation develops, but diagnosing the exact cause can be challenging. Young children and babies who have ear infections tend to be fussy and irritable. They may also cry and tug at or rub their ears."

"text": "Print Overview Bruxism (BRUK-siz-um) is a condition in which you grind, gnash or clench your teeth. If you have bruxism, you may unconsciously clench your teeth when you're awake (awake bruxism) or clench or grind them during sleep (sleep bruxism). Sleep bruxism is considered a sleep-related movement disorder. People who clench or grind their teeth (brux) during sleep are more likely to have other sleep disorders, such as snoring and pauses in breathing (sleep apnea). Mild bruxism may not require treatment. However, in some people, bruxism can be frequent and severe enough to lead to jaw disorders, headaches, damaged teeth and other problems. Because you may have sleep bruxism and be unaware of it until complications develop, it's important to know the signs and symptoms of bruxism and to seek regular dental care. Symptoms Signs and symptoms of bruxism may include: Teeth grinding or clenching, which may be loud enough to wake up your sleep partner Teeth that are flattened, fractured, chipped or loose Worn tooth enamel, exposing deeper layers of your tooth Increased tooth pain or sensitivity Tired or tight jaw muscles, or a locked jaw that won't open or close completely Jaw, neck or face pain or soreness Pain that feels like an earache, though it's actually not a problem with your ear Dull headache starting in the temples Damage from chewing on the inside of your cheek Sleep disruption When to see a doctor See your dentist or doctor if you have any of the symptoms listed above or have other concerns about your teeth or jaw. If you notice that your child is grinding his or her teeth — or has other signs or symptoms of bruxism — be sure to mention it at your child's next dental appointment. Request an Appointment at Mayo Clinic Causes Doctors don't completely understand what causes bruxism, but it may be due to a combination of physical, psychological and genetic factors."

"text": "The Effects of Physical Withdrawal Anxiety, Anger, Irritability, Impatience and Restlessness These are normal temporary effects of physical withdrawal from nicotine. Our life long roller coaster cycles of rising and falling blood nicotine levels are now ending. Your mind is in the process of resuming control of the more than 200 neurochemicals that nicotine had directly and indirectly taken hostage, including select adrenaline, dopamine and serotonin pathways. In resuming control the brain is making sensitivity re-adjustments associated with mood, reward, stimulation and anxiety. In trying to protect your mind from the deadly pesticide nicotine it actually desensitized important neurochemical circuits by reducing receptor sites and diminishing the number of transporters. If a nicotine user remains 100% nicotine free for just 72 hours they’ll likely begin to notice the underlying current of recovery anxieties easing off as their brain’s neurons begin bathing in nicotine-free oxygen rich blood serum and the brain’s sensitivity adjustments begin bearing fruit. Although our quickly healing body is now 100% nicotine free and most of the normal symptoms of adjustment have reached their peak, it will take 10 days to two weeks before our mind and body become fully accustomed to functioning with the absence of nicotine and many of the other 4,000+ chemicals present in each dip. The early healing is rapid. Deep breathing with mind relaxation, together with a bit of physical activity, can help diminish anxieties. Adjustment of caffeine intake and limiting sugars can also have a calming effect."

"text": "Living with Extreme Sound Sensitivity By Craig A. Maxwell, DO ~ 3 min read If you feel disgusted to the point of rage when you hear the sound of chewing, swallowing, breathing, throat-clearing and other common “people” noises, you’re not alone. You’re also not crazy. Misophonia is a sound sensitivity disorder, which makes certain noises intolerable to the sufferer. Although this condition is primarily neurological, the experience of these sounds can cause psychological distress. The term misophonia was developed by Pawel and Margaret Jastreboff, American neuroscientists. Literally translated, it means “hatred of sounds. ”This condition usually develops when a child is just entering into his or her tween years, although it can develop earlier in life. The affected child will often feel a frightening and uncontrollable urge either to strike the person making the noises or run away with hands over ears. Alternatively, some will mimic the sounds of the chewer in an attempt to cover up the noise or to communicate in a nonverbal way how horrible the sound is to them. This reaction is called ‘echolalia’ and is also quite common among those on the autistic spectrum."

"text": "PTSDWhat Is Posttraumatic Stress Disorder? Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric disorder that can occur in people who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event such as a natural disaster, a serious accident, a terrorist act, war/combat, rape or other violent personal assault. PTSD has been known by many names in the past, such as “shell shock” during the years of World War I and “combat fatigue” after World War II. But PTSD does not just happen to combat veterans. PTSD can occur in all people, in people of any ethnicity, nationality or culture, and any age. PTSD affects approximately 3.5 percent of U. S. adults, and an estimated one in 11 people will experience PTSD in their lifetime. People with PTSD continue to have intense, disturbing thoughts and feelings related to their experience that last long after the traumatic event has ended. They may relive the event through flashbacks or nightmares; they may feel sadness, fear or anger; and they may feel detached or estranged from other people. People with PTSD may avoid situations or people that remind them of the traumatic event, and they may have strong negative reactions to something as ordinary as a loud noise or an accidental touch. A diagnosis of PTSD requires exposure to an upsetting traumatic event."

Dogs are diagnosed with destructive tendencies when they destroy things we don’t want them to, such as furniture, shoes, doors, or carpets. Not all destructive behavior is the same, however. When a dog chews on the wrong things or digs in the wrong place but does not have any other symptoms, this is considered a primary destructive behavior. Dogs that have other symptoms like anxiety, fear, or aggression in combination with their destructive behavior are diagnosed with secondary destructive behavior. Both types of destructive behavior can lead to problems with other organs, such as teeth, skin, the stomach, or intestines, if left untreated. Symptoms and Types Primary destructive behavior Chewing on small things left out in the house Chewing on furniture legs or edges Chewing on or eating house plants Digging holes in the yard Owner may or may not be around when symptoms first start Secondary destructive behavior Things are destroyed to get the attention of the owner Owner is around to see things being destroyed Obsessive-Compulsive related destruction Too much time spent licking or chewing on furniture, rugs, or other things Too much time spent licking or chewing on its own legs or feet Frequently eating non-food items ( pica)Owner may or may not be around when behavior happens Separation anxiety related destruction Chewing on furniture, rugs or other things around the house Chewing on owner’s personal items (shoes, etc. ) Destroying doors or windows and window sills Going to the bathroom in the house when it has been house trained Owner is not around when destruction occurs Symptoms occur almost every time the owner is gone Fear ( phobia) related destruction Owner is around to see symptoms Symptoms may be more severe when owner is not around Fear sets off the symptoms (fear of storms, fear of loud noises, etc. ) Pacing Panting Shivering Hiding Destruction of doors, windows, or window frames Aggression related Usually the dog is protecting its territory Destruction happens when other people or animals approach the pet’s territory Doors, windows, window sills and window frames are damaged Owner is usually around to see the behavior Causes Primary destructive behavior Not enough supervision Not enough, or the wrong kind of chew toys Not enough exercise Not enough daily activity Secondary destructive behavior No causes have been found Protecting territory may be both learned and inherited Diagnosis Your veterinarian will need a complete medical and behavior history so that patterns can be established, and so that physical conditions that might be linked to the behavior can be ruled out or confirmed. Things your veterinarian will need to know include your dog's training history, level of daily physical activity, when the destruction first started, how long it has been going on, what events seem to set off the destruction and whether or not your dog is alone when the destruction takes place."

"text": "Clicking Sound in the Head While Runningby JAN MILLEHAN Sept. 11, 2017A clicking sound in your head when you run most likely results from tinnitus. Tinnitus is a symptom of other conditions such as hearing loss and jaw-joint disorders; it produces sounds such as ringing or clicking in your ears and head. Although exercise generally helps relieve the stress associated with tinnitus, high-impact activities such as running may exacerbate this condition. Only your doctor can determine the specific cause of the clicking noises in your head. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Tinnitus Tinnitus is a common problem that causes hearing sensations such as ringing, roaring, buzzing and clicking in your head or ears when no other noise is present. This symptom can occur for many reasons including ear or hearing problems, ear injuries, excessive ear wax, sinus infections, brain tumors, heart disorders and blood vessel diseases, as well as for no apparent reason at all. Tinnitus symptoms can appear in one or both ears and can come and go -- whether you are resting or performing high-impact aerobic or other exercises. Tinnitus sensations may also be heard along with each heartbeat, called pulsatile tinnitus. The repeated high-impact motions experienced in running may negatively affect tiny parts of your ears associated with hearing and increase the presence of tinnitus. Listening to white noise or other low sounds while you run or at other times may help counteract these annoying sensations."

"text": "Providing Outstanding Support, Advice, Information and Encouragement Helping People To Quit Smoking For the Past 27 Years Nicotine Withdrawal Symptoms & Recovery The first few weeks after quitting smoking are usually the most difficult and it's safe to say that it normally takes at least 8-12 weeks before a person starts to feel comfortable with their new lifestyle change of being an ex-smoker. Withdrawal from nicotine, an addictive drug found in tobacco, is characterized by symptoms that include headache, anxiety, nausea and a craving for more tobacco. Nicotine creates a chemical dependency, so that the body develops a need for a certain level of nicotine at all times. Unless that level is maintained, the body will begin to go through withdrawal. For tobacco users trying to quit, symptoms of withdrawal from nicotine are unpleasant and stressful, but only temporary. Most withdrawal symptoms peak 48 hours after you quit and are completely gone in six months. When you are experiencing symptoms of recovery (withdrawal), remind yourself of why you are quitting; write your reasons on a card and keep it with you. Remind yourself that whatever discomfort you are experiencing is only a tiny fraction of the probable discomfort associated with continued smoking (i.e. Painful diseases like cancer, surgery, chemotherapy, emphysema etc.). Withdrawal in the First Two Weeks Because the first two weeks are so critical in determining quitting failure rates, smokers should not be shy about seeking all the help they can during this period. Withdrawal symptoms begin as soon as four hours after the last cigarette, generally peak in intensity at three to five days, and disappear after two weeks."

"text": "Because of anxiety or other issues, some people grind their teeth or clench their jaw thousands of times a night while they sleep. They put so much pressure on their jaws — 250 pounds (or more) worth of force — that they wear down their teeth, sometimes even causing joint and muscle problems. And grinding teeth can be so loud that it wakes their partner. Worse still, grinding teeth isn’t always confined to nighttime hours — it can occur during the day as well. Clenching and grinding teeth, often without even realizing you’re doing it, is called bruxism; it affects about one in three people and can lead to temporomandibular joint problems, or TMJ. Understanding Bruxism Often, people don’t even know they’re grinding their teeth. But dentists can look at their teeth and know they have a habit of grinding, and can look at their jaws and know they clench, says Michael Gelb, DDS, clinical professor of oral medicine and pathology at the New York University College of Dentistry in New York City. People who clench tend to do it in a rhythmic motion, as if they’re chewing something, and often end up with large jaw muscles. People with square jaws also are able to exert more force when they clench and cause more damage, Dr. Gelb says. When you grind your teeth or clench your jaw, you’re likely to experience a host of symptoms, including: Headaches Neck aches Jaw pain Ear pain A feeling of fullness in the ears Ringing in the ears Sensitive teeth when eating or drinking Experts say those at risk for bruxism are people who may: Be nervous Be unable to deal with stress Have problems with anger Feel frustrated Be aggressive Be competitive Because bruxism primarily occurs at night, it’s considered a sleep disorder, Gelb says."

Shaken baby syndrome is a serious brain injury caused by forcefully and violently shaking a baby. Other names for this condition include abusive head trauma, shaken impact syndrome, and whiplash shake syndrome. Shaken baby syndrome is a form of child abuse that causes severe brain damage. It can result from as little as five seconds of shaking. Babies have soft brains and weak neck muscles. They also have delicate blood vessels. Shaking a baby or young child can cause their brain to repeatedly hit the inside of the skull. This impact can trigger bruising in the brain, bleeding in the brain, and brain swelling. Other injuries may include broken bones as well as damage to the baby’s eyes, spine, and neck."

Main Document\"\"The causes of Moebius syndrome remain unknown, although the condition most likely results from a combination of environmental and genetic factors. \"\" Moebius syndrome is a rare form of neurological condition that mainly affects a person's muscles that control their facial expressions and eye movement. The signs and symptoms of the condition are present at the time of a person's birth. Weakness or paralysis of an affected person's facial muscles is one of the most common features of Moebius syndrome. People with this syndrome lack facial expressions; they are unable to smile or frown, or to raise their eyebrows. Muscle weakness associated with the syndrome also causes issues with feeding that become apparent during a person's infancy. A number of people who experience Moebius syndrome are born with a small chin, a small mouth, and with a short or unusually shaped tongue. They may experience cleft palate, or the roof of their mouth may be high or arched. The features contribute to speech issues, which happen in many children with Moebius syndrome."

People with bulimia may secretly binge — eating large amounts of food — and then purge, trying to get rid of the extra calories in an unhealthy way. For example, someone with bulimia may force vomiting or engage in excessive exercise. Sometimes people purge after eating only a small snack or a normal-size meal. Bulimia can be categorized in two ways: Purging bulimia. You regularly self-induce vomiting or misuse laxatives, diuretics or enemas after bingeing. Nonpurging bulimia. You use other methods to rid yourself of calories and prevent weight gain, such as fasting, strict dieting or excessive exercise. However, these behaviors often overlap, and the attempt to rid yourself of extra calories is usually referred to as purging, no matter what the method. If you have bulimia, you're probably preoccupied with your weight and body shape."

Sleep allows your body to rest and restore energy, while at the same time carrying out important physiological and psychological functions that affect your physical and mental health. Healthy sleep can be defined as the amount and quality of sleep that allows one to maintain optimal alertness while awake. Most adults need about eight hours of sleep each night, although sleep requirements vary somewhat among individuals. Children and adolescents typically need more than eight hours of sleep, but after age four, most children require little-to-no daytime sleep. Many people don't get the ideal amount of sleep they need and become chronically sleep deprived. For those who suffer from sleep disorders such as narcolepsy and other illnesses, daytime sleepiness occurs even if the amount of nighttime sleep is adequate. Research finds that sleep loss accumulates over time leading to a \"\"sleep debt.\"\" Insufficient restful sleep can lead to mental and physical health problems, low energy and memory lapses. Normal sleep patterns can be disrupted by many factors, including:stressfamily demands or an overly busy schedulehormonal influences and changes in core body temperature (for example, during ovulation or menstruation or the hot flashes and night sweats characteristic of menopause)dieting, which can lower a woman's body temperaturepregnancy, which can result in body aches, nausea, leg cramps, fetal movements and heartburnintrinsic sleep disorders such as sleep apnea and restless legs syndromedepression, anxiety and worrysleepiness and fatigue In 2007, the National Sleep Foundation (NSF) conducted a national poll of 1,003 American women aged 18 to 64 to better understand the sleep habits of women, investigate how women's sleep is affected by different reproductive stages, examine how women's multiple roles affect their sleep and look at how women experience different sleep problems."

Purpura, also called blood spots or skin hemorrhages, refers to purple-colored spots that are most recognizable on the skin. The spots may also appear on organs or mucous membranes, including the membranes on the inside of the mouth. Purpura occurs when small blood vessels burst, causing blood to pool under the skin. This can create purple spots on the skin that range in size from small dots to large patches. Purpura spots are generally benign, but may indicate a more serious medical condition, such as a blood clotting disorder. Sometimes, low platelet levels can cause excessive bruising and bleeding. Platelets are the cells that help your blood clot.

"text": "Causes There are many causes of excessive sleepiness, and sometimes an underlying sleep disorder is responsible. Most sleep disorders disrupt a person's slumber—usually by shortening the length of time asleep or reducing the quality of sleep—making the person drowsy during the day as a result. One fairly common reason for excessive sleepiness is obstructive sleep apnea. People with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) struggle to breathe during the night and wake up many times per hour as a result. These wake ups continually interrupt the natural cycles of sleep, with all its lighter and deeper stages. As a result, the person doesn't have sufficient and healthy sleep and feels drowsy the next day. Many people with OSA don't realize they have it, because they wake up so briefly they believe they have slept continuously through the night (in fact they may have woken up a hundred times or more). If you are excessively sleepy during the day and especially if you snore, have high blood pressure, or are overweight (factors associated with OSA), it's a good idea to have your doctor investigate the possibility of this sleep disorder. Insomnia is another common cause of excessive sleepiness, in which a person has difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep for the 7-9 hours the body requires. People with insomnia are aware of their sleep struggles, but often don't consult with a doctor to receive proper treatment."

Might Be Medical Problems!“I yawn so many times a day, and I’m worried about it.” “ I may have some diseases or illness because I yawn so often.” Are these worries bothering you? We yawn for various reasons, but yawning may be a symptom of an underlying medical problem. Yawning is most often done when we are sleepy and it usually stops without doing anything special. But the type of yawning, which may be a sign of disease, might be repeated many times a day and almost every day. Regarding those yawns that you can’t stop, let us divide them into two groups; the one with a sign of disease and the other without any sign of disease. Here are some salient features of each group.

"text": "Print Overview Narcissistic personality disorder — one of several types of personality disorders — is a mental condition in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance, a deep need for excessive attention and admiration, troubled relationships, and a lack of empathy for others. But behind this mask of extreme confidence lies a fragile self-esteem that's vulnerable to the slightest criticism. A narcissistic personality disorder causes problems in many areas of life, such as relationships, work, school or financial affairs. People with narcissistic personality disorder may be generally unhappy and disappointed when they're not given the special favors or admiration they believe they deserve. They may find their relationships unfulfilling, and others may not enjoy being around them. Treatment for narcissistic personality disorder centers around talk therapy (psychotherapy). Symptoms Signs and symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder and the severity of symptoms vary. People with the disorder can: Have an exaggerated sense of self-importance Have a sense of entitlement and require constant, excessive admiration Expect to be recognized as superior even without achievements that warrant it Exaggerate achievements and talents Be preoccupied with fantasies about success, power, brilliance, beauty or the perfect mate Believe they are superior and can only associate with equally special people Monopolize conversations and belittle or look down on people they perceive as inferior Expect special favors and unquestioning compliance with their expectations Take advantage of others to get what they want Have an inability or unwillingness to recognize the needs and feelings of others Be envious of others and believe others envy them Behave in an arrogant or haughty manner, coming across as conceited, boastful and pretentious Insist on having the best of everything — for instance, the best car or office At the same time, people with narcissistic personality disorder have trouble handling anything they perceive as criticism, and they can: Become impatient or angry when they don't receive special treatment Have significant interpersonal problems and easily feel slighted React with rage or contempt and try to belittle the other person to make themselves appear superior Have difficulty regulating emotions and behavior Experience major problems dealing with stress and adapting to change Feel depressed and moody because they fall short of perfection Have secret feelings of insecurity, shame, vulnerability and humiliation When to see a doctor People with narcissistic personality disorder may not want to think that anything could be wrong, so they may be unlikely to seek treatment. If they do seek treatment, it's more likely to be for symptoms of depression, drug or alcohol use, or another mental health problem. But perceived insults to self-esteem may make it difficult to accept and follow through with treatment."

"text": "\"Print Overview Alcohol use disorder (which includes a level that's sometimes called alcoholism) is a pattern of alcohol use that involves problems controlling your drinking, being preoccupied with alcohol, continuing to use alcohol even when it causes problems, having to drink more to get the same effect, or having withdrawal symptoms when you rapidly decrease or stop drinking. Unhealthy alcohol use includes any alcohol use that puts your health or safety at risk or causes other alcohol-related problems. It also includes binge drinking — a pattern of drinking where a male consumes five or more drinks within two hours or a female downs at least four drinks within two hours. Binge drinking causes significant health and safety risks. If your pattern of drinking results in repeated significant distress and problems functioning in your daily life, you likely have alcohol use disorder. It can range from mild to severe. However, even a mild disorder can escalate and lead to serious problems, so early treatment is important. Symptoms Alcohol use disorder can be mild, moderate or severe, based on the number of symptoms you experience. Signs and symptoms may include: Being unable to limit the amount of alcohol you drink Wanting to cut down on how much you drink or making unsuccessful attempts to do so Spending a lot of time drinking, getting alcohol or recovering from alcohol use Feeling a strong craving or urge to drink alcohol Failing to fulfill major obligations at work, school or home due to repeated alcohol use Continuing to drink alcohol even though you know it's causing physical, social or interpersonal problems Giving up or reducing social and work activities and hobbies Using alcohol in situations where it's not safe, such as when driving or swimming Developing a tolerance to alcohol so you need more to feel its effect or you have a reduced effect from the same amount Experiencing withdrawal symptoms — such as nausea, sweating and shaking — when you don't drink, or drinking to avoid these symptoms Alcohol use disorder can include periods of alcohol intoxication and symptoms of withdrawal. Alcohol intoxication results as the amount of alcohol in your blood stream increases."

The hormone most often affected is called growth hormone, or GH. It is produced by the pituitary gland, a tiny organ at the base of the brain. Growth hormone promotes growth of bone, cartilage, muscle, organs, and other tissues. When there is too much growth hormone in the body, these tissues grow larger than normal. This excessive growth can cause serious disease and even premature death. The term acromegaly comes from Greek words meaning “extremities” and “enlargement.” Enlargement of the hands and feet is one of the most common signs of the disease. Other effects include enlargement of jaw and other facial bones; overgrowth ofbone and cartilage in the joints, causing arthritis, back pain, and curvature of the spine (kyphosis); swelling of the face, lips, and tongue; breathing problems during sleep ( sleep apnea ); thickening of the skin; carpal tunnel and other nerve entrapment syndromes; and enlargement of body organs such as the heart, thyroid gland ( goiter ), liver, and kidneys. Untreated, acromegaly is linked to early heart disease, high blood pressure, heart rhythm disorders, diabetes, and colonic polyps, a precursor of colon cancer."

Clotting factors are specialized proteins that are essential for the blood to clot normally. Individuals with factor VII deficiency can experience prolonged, uncontrolled bleeding episodes. The severity of factor VII deficiency can vary greatly from one person to another. Some individuals may have no symptoms (asymptomatic); others may develop mild, moderate or potentially severe, life-threatening complications as early as in infancy. Factor VII deficiency is caused by mutations of the F7 gene and is inherited as an autosomal recessive disorder. Introduction Factor VII deficiency was first described in the medical literature by Dr. Alexander, et al. in 1951 and was referred to as prothrombin conversion accelerator deficiency. The disorder has also been known as Alexander's disease."

There is significant variation in the phenotype expressed ranging from life limiting to the absence of overt clinical signs. Von Willebrand disease is the most common primary hemostatic disorder in dogs, and hemophilia A is the most common coagulation factor disorder. The diagnosis of inherited bleeding disorders is made by functional and/or quantitative evaluation. Genetic testing has added to the knowledge base, allowing prevention through targeted breeding. Avoidance of trauma and injury is paramount in the prevention of bleeding in animals diagnosed with inherited hemostatic disorders. Current therapeutic options include platelet transfusions, broad replacement of coagulation factors (e.g., plasma), targeted factor replacement (e.g., cryoprecipitate), antifibrinolytic agents and specific factor replacement, and treatment of the symptoms (i.e., bleeding) with blood transfusions. Previous article Next article Keywordscoagulation hemostasis hemophilia von Willebrand disease Historical reference to inherited bleeding disorders dates back to the Jewish Talmud in the 2nd century A.

Incidence of Clotting in the Veins (Venous Thrombosis)Causes of Blood Clots Inherited Causes of Blood Clots Acquired Causes of Blood Clots References What Is Blood Clot Formation (Thrombosis)? The term thrombosis describes the formation of a blood clot in a blood vessel. The blood vessel can be a vein (venous system) or an artery (arterial system). The symptoms that occur with a clot depend on where the clot occurs, the size of the clot, and whether the clot breaks off and travels to another part of the body (a process called embolization). For example, a blood clot in the leg can break off and travel to the lungs (called a pulmonary embolism) or travel to the brain (called an embolic stroke). Clots in the veins mainly occur in the extremities, but they can also occur in the veins of internal organs such as the liver, spleen, or intestines. The most common types of clots in the veins are deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Clots in the arteries can also affect a variety of organs including the brain (stroke), heart (myocardial infarction), or intestines (abdominal angina)."

Synonyms of Antithrombin Deficiency AT 3AT III deficiencythrombophilia, hereditary, due to AT IIISubdivisions of Antithrombin Deficiencyantithrombin III deficiency, classical (type I)AT III variant Il AAT III variant Il BGeneral Discussion Antithrombin deficiency is a blood disorder characterized by the tendency to form clots in the veins (thrombosis). An inherited tendency to thrombosis is known as thrombophilia. Antithrombin is a substance in the blood that limits the blood's ability to clot (coagulation) and the primary inhibitor of thrombin, which is required for the development of blood clots; it also is the primary inhibitor of two clotting factors, factor Xa and factor IXa, that are required for the generation of thrombin. In people with congenital antithrombin deficiency, there is a reduced amount of this substance in the blood due to a genetic abnormality. Antithrombin deficiency may also be acquired; in such cases, the disorder may be reversible with resoluton/improvement in the disease process responsible for the deficiency. Signs & Symptoms People with antithrombin deficiency are at risk of developing a blood clot (thrombus) within a vein (thrombosis). The first episode of thrombosis typically occurs before the age of 40 years. A thrombus is a clump of blood cells (i.e., platelets, clotting factors, fibrin, etc.) that may become attached (adhere) to the interior wall of a blood vessel, usually a deep vein in the leg."

After the bleeding stops and healing takes place, your body usually breaks down and removes the clot. But some people get too many clots or their blood clots abnormally. Many conditions can cause the blood to clot too much or prevent blood clots from dissolving properly. Risk factors for excessive blood clotting include Certain genetic disorders Atherosclerosis Diabetes Atrial fibrillation Overweight, obesity, and metabolic syndrome Some medicines Smoking Staying in one position for a long time, such as being in the hospital or taking a long car or plane ride Cancer and cancer treatments Blood clots can form in, or travel to, the blood vessels in the brain, heart, kidneys, lungs, and limbs. A clot in the veins deep in the limbs is called deep vein thrombosis (DVT). DVT usually affects the deep veins of the legs. If a blood clot in a deep vein breaks off and travels through the bloodstream to the lungs and blocks blood flow, it is called a pulmonary embolism. Other complications of blood clots include stroke, heart attack, kidney problems, kidney failure, and pregnancy-related problems. Treatments for blood clots include blood thinners and other medicines."

[ 6] Rarely a new mutation may occur during early development or haemophilia may develop later in life due to antibodies forming against a clotting factor. [ 2] [6] Other types include haemophilia C, which occurs due to not enough factor XI, and parahaemophilia, which occurs due to not enough factor V. [7] [8] Acquired haemophilia is associated with cancers, autoimmune disorders, and pregnancy. [ 9] [10] Diagnosis is by testing the blood for its ability to clot and its levels of clotting factors. [ 4]Prevention may occur by removing an egg, fertilizing it, and testing the embryo before transferring it to the uterus. ["

It is made up of 90% water which is required for hydration of body tissues. 7% of plasma is composed of proteins and looks like a pale yellow liquid. Blood plasma is made up of approximately 20% of extracellular body fluid and the composition is almost similar to interstitial fluid. The major difference between the two fluids is the presence of protein content. Interstial fluid comprise of only 2% of protein because the plasma protein molecules are way too large and hence cannot penetrate through the capillary walls located in the interstitial area. And when protein does leak in small volume, the lymph takes it up and returns it back to the blood. Content What are the different types of plasma proteins?

"text": "Hemophilia Health Guide Disease Reference Care Notes Medication List Encyclopedia Q & AMore What Is It? Hemophilia is an inherited disorder. It prevents blood from clotting properly. People with hemophilia bleed longer than usual. This bleeding can range from mild to severe. In severe cases, people with hemophilia can bleed to death. Because of the way in which hemophilia is inherited, it almost exclusively affects men. Women can get it, but it is very rare. Clotting is the process in which the blood thickens or congeals. This prevents a cut or other injury from bleeding endlessly."

Normally the body responds to an injury that causes bleeding through a complex defence system. This consists of local changes in the damaged blood vessels, activation of blood cells called platelets, and the coagulation (clotting) process. Most inherited bleeding disorders are the result of abnormal platelet function or a deficiency in one or more of the factors involved in the blood clotting system. Hemophilia is the most common inherited coagulation factor deficiency. Hemophilia A is a result of a deficiency of factor VIII, and hemophilia B of factor IX. Hemophilia A is more common than hemophilia B, and varies in severity depending on the level of factor VIII activity. Hemophilia B is often a severe bleeding disorder. How is ... inherited? :"

While factor VIII and factor IX deficiencies are the best known and most common types of hemophilia, other clotting factor deficiencies also exist. Low levels of factor XI (FXI) cause hemophilia C. FXI plays an important role in tissue factor-dependent thrombin generation on the surface of activated platelets. 1 The formation of the initiating complex, TF-FVIIa-FXa, results in the generation of a small amount of thrombin. This is insufficient to produce a stable fibrin clot but stimulates a number of reactions in the amplification loop, including the activation of FXI. Subsequent formation of the tenase complex (FIXa-FVIIIa), followed by the prothrombinase complex (FXa-FVa), leads to a large burst of thrombin. 1 For a schematic of these processes, click here. Hemophilia C is also known as plasma thromboplastin antecedent (PTA) deficiency or Rosenthal syndrome. 1-3 Like the other hemophilias, hemophilia C is associated with bleeding, but it differs from hemophilia A and B in several ways. 1-5Bleeding Tendency Unlike with hemophilia A and hemophilia B, the frequency of bleeding with hemophilia C is not determined by the patient’s factor level."

There are three main types of VWD (VWD type 1, VWD type 2, and VWD type 3) each with differing degrees of severity and inheritance patterns. Unlike hemophilia which is characterized by joint bleeding, VWD is typically characterized by mucocutaneous bleeding. VWD is caused by a defect or deficiency in von Willebrand Factor (VWF), a large protein made up of multiple subunits. VWF binds to clotting factor VIII in the circulation and protects it from being broken down. VWF also helps platelets bind to the inside of injured blood vessels. This leads to the formation of a stable blood clot which plugs an injured blood vessel and stops bleeding. If there is an insufficient quantity of VWF or if it is defective, an individual may have difficulty forming a blood clot. Most affected individuals have the relatively mild form of the disease, VWD type 1, and are not diagnosed until adulthood."

Acquired forms of the disorder can be caused by intestinal malabsorption of vitamin K. Familial multiple coagulation factor deficiency is rare. Clinical symptoms of the disease include episodes of intracranial hemorrhage in the first weeks of life, sometimes leading to a fatal outcome. The pathomechanism is based on a reduced hepatic gamma-carboxylation of glutamic acid residues of all vitamin K-dependent blood coagulation factors, as well as the anticoagulant factors protein C ( 612283) and protein S ( 176880 ). Posttranslational gamma-carboxylation of proteins enables the calcium-dependent attachment of the proteins to the phospholipid bilayer of membranes, an essential prerequisite for blood coagulation. Vitamin K1 acts as a cofactor for the vitamin K-dependent carboxylase in liver microsomes, GGCX. Genetic Heterogeneity of Combined Deficiency of Vitamin K-Dependent Clotting Factors Combined deficiency of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors-2 (VKFCD2; 607473) is caused by mutation in the gene encoding vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKORC1; 608547) on chromosome 16p11. ▼ Clinical Features Factor II ( 176930 ), factor X ( 613872 ), factor VII ( 613878 ), and factor IX ( 300746) all require vitamin K for their synthesis. It is theoretically possible that a genetic disorder of the metabolism of vitamin K might lead to a congenital combined deficiency of these 4 clotting factors. ( In a review of the molecular basis of vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylation, Furie and Furie (1990) pointed out that 2 other blood clotting and regulatory proteins, namely protein C and protein S, require vitamin K-dependent posttranslational modification to yield the biologically active form.)"

Symptoms of this disorder usually include abnormal bleeding, which may be severe. Prolonged untreated or unsuccessfully treated hemorrhaging associated with Glanzmann thrombasthenia may be life threatening. Signs & Symptoms The symptoms of Glanzmann thrombasthenia usually begin at birth or shortly thereafter and include the tendency to bruise and bleed easily and sometimes profusely, especially after surgical procedures. Other symptoms may include susceptibility to easy bruising, nosebleeds (epistaxis), bleeding from the gums (gingival), intermittent gastrointestinal bleeding, and/or variably large red or purple colored spots on the skin that are caused by bleeding in the skin (purpura). Women with GT often also have unusually heavy menstrual bleeding, irregular uterine bleeding, and excess bleeding in childbirth. Rarely, internal bleeding and blood in the urine (hematuria) can occur. The severity of the symptoms varies greatly. Some affected individuals have mild bruising and others have severe hemorrhages that can be life threatening."

Such individuals fear women or having a sexual intercourse with them. They might have hatred or ill will towards their own sisters or mothers or, in general, all women around them. Some gynophobics tend to put off marriage on account of such a fear. A related phobia is Venustaphobia or caligynephobia which is the fear of beautiful women. Causes of Gynophobia Psychiatrists believe that the fear of women phobia usually occurs in men having unresolved conflicts with their mothers. Abandonment or physical abuse inflicted by strict mothers in one’s childhood can cause Gynophobia. Childhood Gynophobia often resolves on its own but might persist well into adulthood. Such men tend to view women as physical or emotional threat."

For example, sending flowers, writing love notes, and waiting for someoneoutside her place of work are actions that, on their own, are not criminal. When these actions arecoupled with an intent to instill fear or injury, however, they may constitute a pattern of behavior that is illegal. Though anti-stalking laws are gender neutral, most stalkers are men and most victims arewomen. Stalking first attracted widespread public concern when a young actress named Rebecca Shaeffer,who was living in California, was shot to death by an obsessed fan who had stalked her for twoyears. The case drew extensive media coverage and revealed how widespread a problem stalkingwas to both celebrity and noncelebrity victims. Until the enactment of anti-stalking laws, police hadlittle power to arrest someone who behaved in a threatening but legal way. Even when the suspecthad followed his victim, sent her hate mail, or behaved in a threatening manner, the police werewithout legal recourse."

Introduction The International Civil Liberties Alliance notes with concern a growing tendency in public discourse to use terms that are poorly defined or even undefined. This practice is especially worrisome when the topics being discussed are contentious, as it destroys clarity and hampers mutual understanding. Under these circumstances, it is crucial that precise, unambiguous definitions be provided, and that all parties discussing the issues agree on those definitions. One such term that has seen frequent use in articles, publications, papers, and interventions is the word “Islamophobia”. Although opposition to its use is usually thought of as a “conservative” position, among those who find its use objectionable is also the British Muslim socialist Rumy Hasan: [1]Since 11 September 2001, the epithet ‘Islamophobia’ has increasingly become in vogue in Britain — not only from Muslims but also, surprisingly, from wide layers of the left, yet the term is seldom elaborated upon or placed in a proper context. Invariably, it is used unwisely and irresponsibly and my argument is that the left should refrain from using it. Shockingly, some on the left have, on occassion, even resorted to using it as a term of rebuke against the left, secular, critics of reactionary aspects of Muslim involvement in the anti-war movement. So what does the term mean? As an example of its widespread usage, consider “Guidelines for Educators on Countering Intolerance and Discrimination against Muslims: Addressing Islamophobia through Education”, published jointly by OSCE/ODIHR, the Council of Europe, and UNESCO in 2011.

Generally, modern medical professionals have abandoned using the term \"\"hysteria\"\" to denote a diagnostic category, replacing it with more precisely defined categories, such as somatization disorder. In 1980, the American Psychiatric Association officially changed the diagnosis of \"\"hysterical neurosis, conversion type\"\" (the most extreme and effective type) to \"\" conversion disorder \"\". While the word \"\"hysteria\"\" originates from the Greek word for uterus, hystera, the word itself is not an ancient one, and the term \"\"hysterical suffocation\"\" — meaning a feeling of heat and inability to breathe — was instead used in ancient Greek medicine. This suggests an entirely physical cause for the symptoms but, by linking them to the uterus, suggests that the disorder can only be found in women. ["

Cooper, M. D. Definition Antisocial personality disorder is a psychiatric condition characterized by chronic behavior that manipulates, exploits, or violates the rights of others. This behavior is often criminal. Antisocial Personality Disorder Definition Alternative names Symptoms & Signs Natural History Epidemiology Etiology & Pathogenesis Differential Diagnosis Prevalence Complications Treatment APD in Medical Practice Illustrative Case ASPD, Alcohol, and Aggression Prognosis References Antisocial personality disorder is a condition in which people show a pervasive disregard for the law and the rights of others. People with antisocial personality disorder may tend to lie or steal and often fail to fulfill job or parenting responsibilities. The terms \"\"sociopath\"\" and \"\"psychopath\"\" are sometimes used to describe a person with antisocial personality disorder. Some scholars, such as Robert Hare, still distinguish psychopathy from mere antisocial behavior. Antisocial personality disorder is the most reliably diagnosed condition among the personality disorders, yet treatment efforts are notoriously difficult. Therapeutic hope has not vanished, however, and one study indicated that almost two-thirds of psychiatrists think that \"\"psychopathic disorder\"\" is sometimes a treatable condition. A similar finding was reported nearly 40 years ago. Diagnostic refinement is critical before any treatment efforts are undertaken, especially the determination of the degree of psychopathy in the patient with antisocial personality disorder."

Fear in human beings may occur in response to a specific stimulus occurring in the present, or in anticipation or expectation of a future threat perceived as a risk to body or life. The fear response arises from the perception of danger leading to confrontation with or escape from/avoiding the threat (also known as the fight-or-flight response ), which in extreme cases of fear ( horror and terror) can be a freeze response or paralysis. In humans and animals, fear is modulated by the process of cognition and learning. Thus fear is judged as rational or appropriate and irrational or inappropriate. An irrational fear is called a phobia. Psychologists such as John B. Watson, Robert Plutchik, and Paul Ekman have suggested that there is only a small set of basic or innate emotions and that fear is one of them."

The most dread often is associated with Nyctophobia. This is a very bad phobia and by many standards is a limiting and disabling disease characterized by a frenzied fear of the darkness. It is triggered by the mind’s disfigured perception of what would or could happen when in a dark environment. Many who have this problem seem to become agitated or tense when their security is broken. Many who ghost hunt do not realize at times that other things can effect them when in a haunted location.

Some boys who have experienced such wounding develop unhealthy relationships with women in adulthood in which they either push them too far away or hold them too close. [ MORE ]2. Distorted Concepts of Gender Unhealthy childhood relationships with females can distort a man’s view of the female gender, affect how he sees himself in relation to women, damage his sense of masculinity, and prevent the natural development of a sense of genderedness."

[ 1] [2] [3] It has been defined as contempt, prejudice, aversion, hatred or antipathy, may be based on irrational fear, and is often related to religious beliefs.

Negative attitudes toward identifiable LGBT groups have similar yet specific names: lesbophobia is the intersection of homophobia and sexism directed against lesbians, biphobia targets bisexuality and bisexual people, and transphobia targets transgender and transsexual people and gender variance or gender role nonconformity.

"text": "\"Definition of Terms and Concepts Related to Sex, Gender, and Sexual Orientation*It is important to recognize the difference between sexual orientation and sexual behavior as well as the differences among sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender role. Sexual orientation is the affectional or loving attraction to another person. It can be considered as ranging along a continuum from same-sex attraction only at one end of the continuum to opposite-sex attraction only at the other end. Heterosexuality is the attraction to persons of the opposite sex; homosexuality, to persons of the same sex; and bisexuality, to both sexes. Sexual orientation can be seen as part of a continuum ranging from same-sex attraction only (at one end of the continuum) to opposite-sex attraction only (at the other end of the continuum). Sexual behavior, or sexual activity, differs from sexual orientation and alone does not define someone as an LGBT individual. Any person may be capable of sexual behavior with a person of the same or opposite sex, but an individual knows his or her longings—erotic and affectional—and which sex is more likely to satisfy those needs. It is necessary to draw a distinction between sexual orientation and sexual behavior. Not every person with a homosexual or bisexual orientation is sexually active. A person’s sexual orientation does not tell us if she/he is sexually active nor does it define her/his specific sexual behaviors."

"text": "Five Subtle Differences Between Diets and Anorexia April 4, 2013 by Melissa A. Fabello394Share Tweet Credit: 90.9WBUR On Point Trigger Warning: Eating Disorders (frank discussion, numbers, thinspiration). For National Eating Disorders Awareness Week, and for Miss Representation, I made a vlog detailing the idea that although the media can (and does) affect body- and self-image, it cannot in and of itself cause eating disorders. In the video, I make the point that eating disorders are a type of mental illness – key phrase – that affects thoughts and behaviors associated with food. The important thing to note about eating disorders, I explain, is that they are “conditions defined by abnormal eating habits…to the detriment of an individual’s physical and mental health. ”That is, eating disorders are not diets. But I realize now that saying that an eating disorder is categorized by a loss of self-control and an inability to think and behave rationally – because it’s a mental illness – isn’t enough. We need to bust eating disorder myths and discuss how they’re different from diets – especially anorexia nervosa, which is categorized by restricting calories, just like a weight-loss diet is. Because although poor body-image and diet culture are problematic in their own right s, anorexia nervosa takes on a whole new level of dangerous. And yet, considering the way that we’ve normalized body-hatred and extreme dieting in our culture, it can be difficult to pinpoint when the former develops into the latter. And when you consider that even the National Eating Disorder Association makes a distinction between the 50% of girls who use unhealthy weight control behaviors (such as skipping meals, fasting, smoking, vomiting, and using laxatives) and the 25% of those pathological dieters that will progress to developing full-blown eating disorders, it’s no wonder people are unsure of how to recognize the difference."

But what most don’t think about are the labeling and divisive stereotypes that are used within a race; such as stereotypes often used in the Black community. This type of division in a race can be poisoning and indirectly divisive. Stereotypes such as Light Skin Vs. Dark Skin within the Black community are cancerous, dangerous, and shape how we view ourselves and our people. Fortunately, we can solve this problem by teaching and mentally reshaping how we’ve been trained to think and behave. This stereotyping is seen as joking and not serious, at least that’s what is thought. It is also rare that anyone questions where Light Skin Vs. Dark Skin originated. “"

It affects about 1 percent of Americans. People with schizophrenia may hear voices other people don't hear or they may believe that others are reading their minds, controlling their thoughts, or plotting to harm them. These experiences are terrifying and can cause fearfulness, withdrawal, or extreme agitation. People with schizophrenia may not make sense when they talk, may sit for hours without moving or talking much, or may seem perfectly fine until they talk about what they are really thinking. Because many people with schizophrenia have difficulty holding a job or caring for themselves, the burden on their families and society is significant as well. Available treatments can relieve many of the disorder's symptoms, but most people who have schizophrenia must cope with some residual symptoms as long as they live. Nevertheless, this is a time of hope for people with schizophrenia and their families. Many people with the disorder now lead rewarding and meaningful lives in their communities."

We evaluate epilepsy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, coma or persistent vegetative state (PVS), and neurological disorders that cause disorganization of motor function, bulbar and neuromuscular dysfunction, communication impairment, or a combination of limitations in physical and mental functioning such as early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. We evaluate neurological disorders that may manifest in a combination of limitations in physical and mental functioning. For example, if you have a neurological disorder that causes mental limitations, such as Huntington’s disease, which may limit executive functioning (e.g., regulating attention, planning, inhibiting responses, decision-making), we evaluate your limitations using the functional criteria under these listings (see 11.00G). Under this body system, we evaluate the limitations resulting from the impact of the neurological disease process itself. If your neurological disorder results in only mental impairment or if you have a co-occurring mental condition that is not caused by your neurological disorder (for example, dementia), we will evaluate your mental impairment under the mental disorders body system, 12.00. B. What evidence do we need to document your neurological disorder? We need both medical and non-medical evidence (signs, symptoms, and laboratory findings) to assess the effects of your neurological disorder. Medical evidence should include your medical history, examination findings, relevant laboratory tests, and the results of imaging. Imaging refers to medical imaging techniques, such as x-ray, computerized tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and electroencephalography (EEG)."

Listings 12.07, 12.08, 12.10, 12.11, and 12.13 have two paragraphs, designated A and B; your mental disorder must satisfy the requirements of both paragraphs A and B. Listings 12.02, 12.03, 12.04, 12.06, and 12.15 have three paragraphs, designated A, B, and C; your mental disorder must satisfy the requirements of both paragraphs A and B, or the requirements of both paragraphs A and C. Listing 12.05 has two paragraphs that are unique to that listing (see 12.00A3); your mental disorder must satisfy the requirements of either paragraph A or paragraph B. Paragraph A of each listing (except 12.05) includes the medical criteria that must be present in your medical evidence. Paragraph B of each listing (except 12.05) provides the functional criteria we assess, in conjunction with a rating scale (see 12.00E and 12.00F), to evaluate how your mental disorder limits your functioning. These criteria represent the areas of mental functioning a person uses in a work setting. They are: understand, remember, or apply information; interact with others; concentrate, persist, or maintain pace; and adapt or manage oneself. We will determine the degree to which your medically determinable mental impairment affects the four areas of mental functioning and your ability to function independently, appropriately, effectively, and on a sustained basis (see 404.1520a (c) (2) and 416.920a (c) (2) of this chapter). To satisfy the paragraph B criteria, your mental disorder must result in “extreme” limitation of one, or “marked” limitation of two, of the four areas of mental functioning. ( When we refer to “paragraph B criteria” or “area [s] of mental functioning” in the introductory text of this body system, we mean the criteria in paragraph B of every listing except 12.05. ) Paragraph C of listings 12.02, 12.03, 12.04, 12.06, and 12.15 provides the criteria we use to evaluate “serious and persistent mental disorders.”"

Unlike the relatively mild, brief anxiety caused by a stressful event such as a business presentation or a first date, anxiety disorders are chronic, relentless, and can grow progressively worse if not treated. Advertisement Effective treatments for anxiety disorders are available, and research is yielding new, improved therapies that can help most people with anxiety disorders lead productive, fulfilling lives. If you think you have an anxiety disorder, you should seek information and treatment. This brochure willhelp you identify the symptoms of anxiety disorders,explain the role of research in understanding the causes of these conditions,describe effective treatments,help you learn how to obtain treatment and work with a doctor or therapist, andsuggest ways to make treatment more effective. The anxiety disorders discussed in this brochure arepanic disorder,obsessive-compulsive disorder,post-traumatic stress disorder,social phobia (or social anxiety disorder),specific phobias, andgeneralized anxiety disorder. Each anxiety disorder has its own distinct features, but they are all bound together by the common theme of excessive, irrational fear and dread. The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) supports scientific investigation into the causes, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of anxiety disorders and other mental illnesses. The NIMH mission is to reduce the burden of mental illness through research on mind, brain, and behavior."

"text": "\"Treatment of Children with Mental Illness Download PDFDownload e Pub Order a free hardcopy En Español Introduction Research shows that half of all lifetime cases of mental illness begin by age 14. 1 Scientists are discovering that changes in the body leading to mental illness may start much earlier, before any symptoms appear. Through greater understanding of when and how fast specific areas of children's brains develop, we are learning more about the early stages of a wide range of mental illnesses that appear later in life. Helping young children and their parents manage difficulties early in life may prevent the development of disorders. Once mental illness develops, it becomes a regular part of your child's behavior and more difficult to treat. Even though we know how to treat (though not yet cure) many disorders, many children with mental illnesses are not getting treatment. This fact sheet addresses common questions about diagnosis and treatment options for children with mental illnesses. Disorders affecting children may include anxiety disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorders, bipolar disorder, depression, eating disorders, and schizophrenia. Q. What should I do if I am concerned about mental, behavioral, or emotional symptoms in my child? A. Talk to your child's doctor or health care provider."

"text": "\"Medication for Anxiety The use of medication is a critical issue among those who struggle with anxiety on a daily basis, as well as for professionals treating anxiety disorders. For many people, medication is a positive turning point along the path to recovery. For others, medication can confuse and complicate the recovery process, when freedom from anxiety is purchased at the cost of long-term addiction to tranquilizers. For still other people—those who are either phobic of or philosophically opposed to all types of drugs—medication may seem not to be an option, even when it's needed. One thing is clear: The pros and cons of relying on medication are unique and variable in each individual case. If you feel your problem with anxiety is relatively mild (if it's more of an inconvenience or nuisance instead of a debilitating or highly distressing condition), you may want to consider cognitive behavioral therapy (as described on this site) and/or natural approaches first before trying prescription medication. Natural approaches include regular, preferably aerobic exercise, a practice of regular deep relaxation (for example, a recorded relaxation visualization or meditation), stress management, simplifying your life, and natural herbs or supplements which have a relaxing effect. More information on all of these approaches is available in any of my self-help books (see self-help books button). On the other hand, if you have a more severe problem with anxiety, appropriate use of medication may be an important part of your treatment. This is particularly true if you're dealing with panic disorder, agoraphobia, or obsessive-compulsive disorder."

In some cases, depression may be linked to an underlying physical health problem. Lab tests. For example, your teen's doctor may do a blood test called a complete blood count or test your teen's thyroid to make sure it's functioning properly. Psychological evaluation. This evaluation includes a discussion with your teen about thoughts, feelings and behavior, and may include a questionnaire. These will help pinpoint a diagnosis and check for related complications.

"text": "The Course of Bipolar Disorder Episodes of mania and depression typically recur across the life span. Between episodes, most people with bipolar disorder are free of symptoms, but as many as one-third find that some linger. A small percentage experience chronic unremitting symptoms despite treatment. Bipolar I disorder is the classic form of the illness, which involves recurrent episodes of mania and depression. People with bipolar II disorder never develop severe mania; instead they experience episodes of hypomania that alternate with depression. When four or more episodes of illness occur within a twelve-month period, a person is said to have rapid-cycling bipolar disorder. Some people experience multiple episodes within a single week, or even within a single day. Rapid cycling tends to develop later in the course of illness and is more common among women than among men. Most people with bipolar disorder can lead healthy and productive lives when the illness is properly treated. Without treatment, however, the disorder tends to worsen."

Treatment Borderline personality disorder is mainly treated using psychotherapy, but medication may be added. Your doctor also may recommend hospitalization if your safety is at risk. Treatment can help you learn skills to manage and cope with your condition. With treatment, you can feel better about yourself and live a more stable, rewarding life. Psychotherapy Psychotherapy — also called talk therapy — is a fundamental treatment approach for borderline personality disorder. Your therapist may adapt the type of therapy to best meet your needs.

It was used to prevent the communist forces from using the jungle for cover, to destroy their food supply and to clear areas of the jungle for U. S. occupation. The U. S. Army heavily sprayed areas of inland forest in the demarcation zone, along the borders of Cambodia, Laos and South Vietnam and areas north and northwest of Saigon. There was also heavy spraying in the mangrove forests on the southernmost peninsula of Vietnam and along the major shipping channels southeast of Saigon. Shortly following their military service in Vietnam, some veterans reported a variety of health problems and concerns which some of them attributed to exposure to Agent Orange or other herbicides. Agent Orange contains dioxin, which has known biological and physical effects. Both Vietnamese citizens and war veterans have experienced health problems as a result of Agent Orange exposure. Health problems include birth defects, skin diseases and peripheral neuropathy. Agent Orange may also be responsible for some instances of Parkinson's and heart diseases. Physical and Neurological Effects of Agent Orange According to the World Health Organization, short-term exposure to high levels of dioxins causes skin damage and altered liver function."

Army Huey helicopter spraying Agent Orange over Vietnamese agricultural land Agent Orange is the combination of the code names for Herbicide Orange (HO) and Agent LNX, one of the herbicides and defoliants used by the U. S. military as part of its chemical warfare program, Operation Ranch Hand, during the Vietnam War from 1961 to 1972. Vietnam estimates 400,000 people were killed or maimed, and 500,000 children born with birth defects as a result of its use. [ 1] The Red Cross of Vietnam estimates that up to 1 million people are disabled or have health problems due to Agent Orange. [ 2]A 50:50 mixture of 2,4,5-T and 2,4-D, it was manufactured for the U. S. Department of Defense primarily by Monsanto Corporation and Dow Chemical. The 2,4,5-T used to produce Agent Orange was later discovered to be contaminated with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzodioxin (TCDD), an extremely toxic dioxin compound. It was given its name from the color of the orange-striped 55 US gallon (208 liters) barrels in which it was shipped, and was by far the most widely used of the so-called \"\" Rainbow Herbicides \"\". [ 3]During the Vietnam War, between 1962 and 1972, the United States military sprayed nearly 20,000,000 US gallons of material containing chemical herbicides and defoliants mixed with jet fuel in Vietnam, eastern Laos and parts of Cambodia, as part of Operation Ranch Hand. [ 4] [5] The program's goal was to defoliate forested and rural land, depriving guerrillas of cover; another goal was to induce forced draft urbanization, destroying the ability of peasants to support themselves in the countryside, and forcing them to flee to the U. S. dominated cities, thus depriving the guerrillas of their rural support and food supply. [ 5] [6]The US began to target food crops in October 1962, primarily using Agent Blue."

Approximately 2.7 million American men and women served in Vietnam. During the war, more than 58,000 servicemen and women lost their lives. Vietnam Veterans represent the largest cohort of American Veterans in terms of service era. While the majority of Vietnam Veterans successfully readjusted to postwar life,a substantial minority of Vietnam-era Veterans have suffered from a variety of psychological problems, and have experienced a wide range of life-adjustment problems. During the Vietnam War, the U. S. military used more than 19 million gallons of various herbicides for defoliation and crop destruction in the Republic of Vietnam. Veterans who served in Vietnam anytime during the period beginning Jan. 9, 1962, and ending May 7, 1975, are presumed to have been exposed to herbicides. VA established an Agent Orange Registry to study the health effects associated with exposure to herbicides such as Agent Orange. Veterans who served in Vietnam, or in other areas throughout the world where herbicide was sprayed, who are interested in participating in an Agent Orange Registry health exam should speak to the environmental health coordinator or patient care advocate at their local VA medical center. VA's War Related Illness and Injury Study Center, (WRIISC), located at the VA medical centers in Palo Alto, Calif.; Washington, D. C.; and East Orange, N.

Erickson6k views1. Agent Orange was a herbicide and defoliant used in Vietnam Agent Orange was a blend of tactical herbicides the U. S. military sprayed from 1962 to 1971 during the Vietnam War to remove the leaves of trees and other dense tropical foliage that provided enemy cover. The U. S. Department of Defense developed tactical herbicides specifically to be used in “combat operations.” They were not commercial grade herbicides purchased from chemical companies and sent to Vietnam. More than 19 million gallons of various “rainbow” herbicide combinations were sprayed, but Agent Orange was the combination the U. S. military used most often. The name “Agent Orange” came from the orange identifying stripe used on the 55-gallon drums in which it was stored. Heavily sprayed areas included forests near the demarcation zone, forests at the junction of the borders of Cambodia, Laos, and South Vietnam, and mangroves on the southernmost peninsula of Vietnam and along shipping channels southeast of Saigon.2. Any Veteran who served anywhere in Vietnam during the war is presumed to have been exposed to Agent Orange. For the purposes of VA compensation benefits, Veterans who served anywhere in Vietnam between January 9, 1962 and May 7, 1975 are presumed to have been exposed to herbicides, as specified in the Agent Orange Act of 1991. These Veterans do not need to show that they were exposed to Agent Orange or other herbicides in order to get disability compensation for diseases related to Agent Orange exposure."

Bitter orange oil is made from the peel. Bitter orange, both taken by mouth and applied to the skin, has many uses. But so far, science has shown only that the oil, when applied to the skin, might be effective for treatment of fungal skin infections ( ringworm, jock itch, and athlete’s foot). Bitter orange peel is also used to improve appetite, and, in surprising contrast, it is also used for weight loss. Other uses for the fruit and peel are upset stomach, nasal congestion, and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). The bitter orange flower and bitter orange oil are used for gastrointestinal (GI) disorders including ulcers in the intestine, constipation, diarrhea, blood in feces, drooping (prolapsed) anus or rectum, and intestinal gas. These parts of the bitter orange plant are also used for regulating fat levels in the blood, lowering blood sugar in people with diabetes, stimulating the heart and circulation, “blood purification,” disorders of liver and gallbladder, kidney and bladder diseases, and as a sedative for sleep disorders. Some people use bitter orange flower and its oil for general feebleness, “tired blood” ( anemia ), impurities of the skin, hair loss, cancer, frostbite, and as a tonic."

The dioxin TCDD present in Agent Orange is extremely toxic and is categorized as a human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). The spraying of gallons of toxic herbicides, like Agent Orange, by the U. S. military forces during the Vietnam War was a way to counteract the guerrilla warfare tactics of their enemy. However, the use of these chemicals led to serious health implications for the soldiers of both countries. Even today, the general Vietnamese population is experiencing a wide range of severe illnesses as a result of the exposure. War veterans who were exposed to the toxic chemicals developed a wide range of medical conditions. The incidence of diabetes and thyroid problems was significantly higher in veterans who had come in contact with the herbicide. The medical conditions that have been associated with the exposure to Agent Orange are discussed below."

"text": "\"Parkinson's disease is a movement disorder that happens when nerve cells (neurons) in a certain part of the brain are no longer making the chemical dopamine. The condition is also sometimes known as paralysis agitans or shaking palsy. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) estimates that at least 50,000 Americans are diagnosed with Parkinson's every year, but the true number of people who develop the disease may be much higher. The four primary symptoms of the disease — shaking, muscle stiffness, slow movement, and impaired balance — can vary for each person with Parkinson's, but symptoms generally get worse over time. There's currently no cure for Parkinson's disease (sometimes called PD), but a number of treatments for Parkinson's can help manage its symptoms. Parkinson's and the Brain Most of the symptoms of Parkinson's diseasecome from the loss of neurons in an area of your brain called the substantia nigra. Normally, the neurons in this part of the brain make the chemical messenger ( neurotransmitter) dopamine, which allows communication with another area of the brain, the corpus striatum. This communication helps produce smooth, purposeful movement. When the neurons in the substantia nigra die, the resulting loss of communication leads to the motor (movement-related) symptoms of Parkinson's. Although the cause of this cell death is unknown, many researchers believe that the cells are killed by clumped proteins called Lewy (pronounced \"\"LOO-ee\"\") bodies."

If so, you may be eligible to receive disability compensation from the VA. In this blog post, you will find information to help you move forward with your individual unemployability claim. Hiring a reliable VA attorney is the first step toward getting the compensation you deserve for your service-related disability. What is TDIU? TDIU stands for total disability individual unemployability. When veterans have a TDIU rating, this means that the Department of Veterans Affairs found them unable to obtain gainful employment due to an injury sustained while in the military. If your service-related disability is preventing you from being a productive member of the work force, you may be eligible for a TDIU rating. In order to receive a TDIU rating, you must have served in the U. S. military and have at least one service-related disability (at least a 60% rating). As an alternative to the second condition, you must have two or more service-related injuries (one must be at least 40% or higher with a combined disability ratable of 70% or more)."

"text": "Defoliant spray run, part of Operation Ranch Hand, during the Vietnam War by UC-123B Provider aircraft. ( Photo: USAF) There are images from the US war against Vietnam that have been indelibly imprinted on the minds of Americans who lived through it. One is the naked napalm-burned girl running from her village with flesh hanging off her body. Another is a photo of the piles of bodies from the My Lai massacre, where US troops executed 504 civilians in a small village. Then, there is the photograph of the silent scream of a woman student leaning over the body of her dead friend at Kent State University, whose only crime was protesting the bombing of Cambodia in 1970. Finally, there is the memory of decorated members of Vietnam Veterans Against the War testifying at the Winter Soldier Hearings, often in tears, to atrocities in which they had participated during the war. These pictures are heartbreaking. They expose the horrors of war. The US war against Vietnam was televised, while images of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have intentionally been hidden from us. But what was not televised was the relentless ten years (1961-1971) of spraying millions of gallons of toxic herbicides over vast areas of South Vietnam."

The Surface Pro 4 and Surface Book both feature the best displays in their class, with very accurate color reproduction and high pixel densities. The move to the 3:2 aspect ratio with the Surface Pro 3 was a game changer for that tablet, and it is great to see they have stuck with this even with the much larger Surface Studio. There is a lot to talk about in regards to the display of the Surface Studio. First of all, it is truly a “wow” moment for practically anyone who sees it. We can get a bit carried away with talk of pixels, color gamuts, and contrast, but pretty much anyone who has seen this Surface Studio has said “wow” whether they are technical or not. The combination of a huge number of pixels, a very large display, good brightness, and the not so average aspect ratio really make the Studio stand out. The fact that it’s all in a 12.5 mm thick design is the icing on the cake. A few pages ago, I spoke of attention to detail. There is nowhere this is more apparent than the Surface Studio’s 28.125-inch Pixel Sense display."

Working vertically also means you're working in the same plane as the painting will finally be hung, reduces the risk of spilling anything on it, or dust collecting on it. You can work sitting on a stool or standing, though standing at an easel makes it easy to step back to see how the painting is progressing. What Kind of Easel Should I Get? The type of easel you get depends on the kind of painting you do the most. If you like working on large-scale canvases, then a table-top easel is unsuitable. Likewise, if you only ever work on a small scale, then a table-top easel may be more ideal than a floor-standing easel. If you enjoy standing to paint, then consider a floor-standing easel. And if you paint very vigorously, you'll want a heavy easel for stability. Does It Matter What Medium I'm Using?"

What elements, tools, tips, and tricks will help you stand heads and shoulders above your competition? What do you need to know to protect your clients physically and yourself and your staff legally? In the paragraphs below, we touch on all the basics from shop safety to managing day-to-day operations to marketing your business and beyond. Even if you're the owner of an established tattoo shop, you're sure to learn something new. Getting Started Starting a tattoo shop is no small order. You'll need to find a location where people can easily find you and that offers sufficient space to accommodate the number of tattoo artists you plan to employ, but that also has a reasonable lease that's in your budget. You'll have to obtain all the business licenses your state requires, and the tattoo artists you employ may need to get tattoo licenses, too. Unless you plan to run your business solo, you'll need to hire staff, including someone to man the front desk and phones, tattoo artists, possibly a piercer, and anyone else you think would be an asset to your new business. Each staff member should undergo some degree of OSHA training appropriate for their position, and your tattoo artists should all be thoroughly familiar with OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard."

"text": "What is View Point? By Shawn_Tierney - November 1, 2013Many clients have asked me, “What is View Point?”Simply put, View Point is an extension to Factory Talk View Site Edition and the Panel View Plus which adds web server functionality to the Factory Talk View project. Web Client Compatibility When Rockwell implemented View Point, they did so as a Silverlight browser plugin that works well on computers running Microsoft Windows or Apple OSX. However, much like Adobe Flash, on release Silverlight was not supported on mobile devices. And a recent web search reviled that while there is much interest in getting Silverlight to run on Apple and Android mobile platforms, as far as I can tell not even Microsoft's own Surface RT tablet can run the Silverlight web browser plugin. So for now, running a View Point client is limited to Windows and OSX PC's, including tablet PC's like Microsoft's Surface Pro. UPDATE 11-06-2017: In version 8.10, View Point went from being a Microsoft Silverlight application to being a HTML 5 application. This change improved compatibility with browsers, operating systems, and devices that do not support Microsoft Silverlight. That said, many users complained View Point 8.10 was extremely slow, and one of the major features of View Point 9.0 was a 50-70% speed increase in page loading on mobile devices. View Point on the Panel View Plus: View Point for the Panel View Plus is actually a free add-on."

The i Pad Pro uses sensors to detect the light in whatever room it’s in to adjust the color temperature of the display to the ambient light. The effect makes the screen look more like paper, and is most noticeable when it’s turned off and the screen switches to a bright bluish light. In addition to a 2224 x 1668 screen resolution, the device uses an A10X Fusion chip with 64-bit architecture Embedded M10 co-processor, the fastest mobile processor available on an i OS device, and features four speakers for the best possible sound. Not to mention, the i Pad Pro is compatible with the Pencil, and has a special connector to keyboards so you don’t have to rely on a Bluetooth connection to type without using the on-screen keyboard. Obsessed with Instagramming? Apple also included the same rear-facing 12MP camera with 4K HD video, as well as a 7MP Face Time HD camera, for those who want to take better photos on their tablet."

"text": "89Dell Canvas 27 launched as world's first 'horizontal smart workspace'Published Jan 6, 2017 | Brittany Hillen Share At CES 2017, Dell introduced what it claims is the world's first 'horizontal smart workspace,' the 27-inch touch-sensitive Dell Canvas display. Canvas is designed for creatives, including photographers, artists, and graphic designers, and can be used in two orientations: lying flat on a desk or propped up at an angle via a kickstand. The display likewise offers support for a stylus, totems (Dell's large control dials), and touch input. Dell Canvas isn’t necessarily an alternative to Surface Studio; rather, it is a large display that can be connected to nearly any Windows 10 device, says Dell. The monitor has a 2560 x 1440 QHD resolution. The model will be available from Dell.com in the U. S. on March 30 starting at $1799.

"text": "\"Tim Moynihan gear 10.26.16 12:28 pm Look at Microsoft's Fancy Surface Studio All-in-One PCMicrosoft Microsoft unveiled a new all-in-one touchscreen desktop computer at its media event in New York today. The Surface Studio is alarmingly thin and objectively beautiful, but its most unique trait is that the whole screen tilts down on a four-point hinge to become a tabletop touchscreen PC. It doesn't tilt down totally flat, but it sits at about a 20 degree angle, which seems like a natural amount of tilt for drawing, drafting, and swiping things around on the screen. Pricing starts at $2,999. Brawnier options go up to $4,199. The Surface Studio is available for preorders starting today and will ship in \"\"limited quantities for the holidays,\"\" according to Microsoft.

Whether they're falling apart after years of hard use or standing in the way of that work-triangle overhaul you've been planning, a coat of paint or new wood veneers simply won't save them. With so many door styles, finishes, and bells and whistles, such as built-in spice racks and pull-out pantries, to choose from, investing in new cabinets can be exciting. But with a lot of money at stake—cabinets account for about half the cost of a typical kitchen renovation—it can also be nerve-wracking. To get the most bang for the buck, it's important to focus not just on good looks but also on the quality of materials, the type of hinges and other hardware, and the joinery that holds the cabinets together. Those factors determine whether your cabinets will hold your affections for the long haul or soon force you to start shopping again.

Reporting Services tools work within the Microsoft Visual Studio environment and are fully integrated with SQL Server tools and components. With Reporting Services you can create interactive, tabular, graphical, or free-form reports from relational, multidimensional, or XML-based data sources. Reports can include rich data visualization, including charts, maps, and sparklines. You can publish reports, schedule report processing, or access reports on-demand. You can select from a variety of viewing formats, export reports to other applications such as Microsoft Excel, and subscribe to published reports. The reports that you create can be viewed over a Web-based connection or as part of a Microsoft Windows application or Share Point site.

Called, simply the Surface Pro, the new version is very similar to its predecessor, reviewed below. The modest improvements include incrementally better battery life, a newer processor and a quieter, fanless design. On the downside, the Surface Pen stylus that came bundled with previous editions is no longer included by default and the new keyboard covers are more expensive than ever. That noted, the new $799 Surface Pro ($1,027 with the Surface Pen and basic black keyboard cover) remains the gold standard for Windows hybrid PCs though it does not warrant the upgrade from current Surface Pro 4 owners. Editors' note: The review of Microsoft's Surface Pro 4, originally published in October 2015 and updated since, follows. Fall '16 update After years of development and millions of advertising dollars spent to convince us that a tablet could plausibly replace a laptop, Microsoft finally delivered the goods with the Surface Pro 4. Equipped with robust processing power, a perfectly sized display and just-right aspect ratio, and a few critical add-on accessories, the Pro 4 solidified the Surface's position as the gold standard for Windows tablets. And with the arrival of Windows 10 in July 2015, that which blemished all previous Surface models -- an inelegant operating system -- was finally replaced by a solid OS that could fulfill the potential of its form factor. In fact, the Surface line has become something of a category trailblazer."

June 4, 2007 @ 11:10amby Melissa Lafsky A reader named Jeff Stier wrote to inform us of the upcoming Angels in Waiting Third Annual Blood Drive in Memory of Joel Kirshner, for which Stier is the project director. Last year, the event was the largest mobile blood drive in the history of the New York Blood Center. For the past two years, the organizers have offered donors free “pint for a pint” coupons from Ben & Jerry’s. This year, they considered switching the gift to one-day passes to Manhattan’s high-end Reebok Sports Club. The gym agreed to donate 200 passes, valued at $35 each. The plan hit a snag when Robert Purvis, vice president and executive director for New York Blood Services, stepped in with news of FDA regulations that prohibit compensation for blood donation. Stier summarizes : [Purvis] explained that they are bound by FDA guidelines regulating “gifts” given to blood donors. He said, for instance, that any passes we hand out cannot be called “compensation” but rather something along the lines of “recognition. ”Specifically, the FDA prohibits any gifts to blood donors in excess of $25 in cumulative value, meaning that the gym passes were forbidden."

To donate plasma, you must be a healthy individual, 18 to 65 years of age, weigh at least 110 pounds, and pass all other required donor eligibility criteria. Following a well-balanced diet and drinking plenty of water before donating is also recommended. Is it safe to donate plasma? Donating plasma is a very safe procedure with minimal or no side effects. On your initial visit, and annually, you will receive a physical exam and your medical history will be recorded. These steps help ensure donating is safe for you and protect the recipient of the therapies made from your plasma. On subsequent visits, a staff member will check your vital signs and ask some questions about your health since your last donation. In addition, your hematocrit (the percentage of blood volume occupied by red blood cells) and plasma protein levels will be measured. The tubing and all other collection supplies that come in contact with your blood are discarded and replaced with new, sterile materials each time a donation procedure is performed."

"text": "Rules for Donating Plasmaby JENNIFER RIBEIRO, PH. D., C. P. T Aug. 14, 2017Like other forms of blood donation, a plasma donation can prove lifesaving to others. Plasma is the liquid portion of your blood. It contains many important proteins that help fight infections and enable the blood to clot. But before heading to a local donation facility, there are some eligibility rules to consider. Age, weight and general health requirements must be met for your safety. You will also be asked about your medical conditions, medications, recent activities and the date of your last donation to determine your eligibility. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Weight and Age The U. S. Food and Drug Administration regulates the collection of blood and its components -- including plasma. General requirements for plasma donation are similar to those for other types of blood donations. Your size determines the amount of blood in your body, so you must weigh at least 110 pounds to safely donate the standard amount of plasma collected during a donation."

"text": "\"Can I donate Blood Plasma With Tattoos or Piercings? Q: Can I donate plasma with a new tattoo? I visited a plasma center, and they said there's a 6 month deferral. Is this true, or just tattoo discrimination? Answer: You might be confusing plasma donation with blood donation, which has a deferral period of 6 months (in Canada at least) after getting a new tattoo. Some plasma centers have a deferral period of twelve months for a person with tattoos. This is to prevent plasma recipients from getting hepatitis. It could cost someone their life. You could always call a donation center and ask them. Contact the plasma center nearest to you for state-specific eligibility guidelines for donors."

"text": "Can you donate blood if you smoke or have smoked marijuana? For those of you who did not come here to read a lengthy discussion of this topic, the answer is yes. It is perfectly fine for someone who has smoked or even regularly smokes marijuana to donate blood. The Red Cross is very explicit on this topic and states that “marijuana or alcohol use does not necessarily disqualify you from giving blood as long as you are feeling well.” It is important to note that a blood donation center is unlikely to accept your donation if they believe that you have recently consumed either alcohol or marijuana. Also, while marijuana and alcohol will not disqualify you from giving blood, intravenous drug use at any point in your lifetime will disqualify you as will various other medical conditions and other assorted criteria. A helpful guide on donating blood which was put together by the Red Cross can be found here. Now, the reason this is acceptable and does not harm the recipient of a blood transfusion is because your body metabolizes THC into two different chemicals. The first of which is 11-OH-THC which is also psychoactive like THC. Some scientists and doctors believe that the reason the munchies are delayed is because 11-OH-THC causes the munchies and your body must take time to metabolize THC before 11-OH-THC is present in your blood stream."

Although the process is a little more complex than that of donating blood, the big advantage is that, unlike with blood, one can make multiple plasma donations a month. For 3-4 hours weekly, you could donate plasma and get paid up to $280 a month, and by doing so, you will also be helping others and potentially saving lives. Lets look at this in more detail:1 What is Plasma? Plasma is the liquid component of blood. It is a yellowish color and mainly comprised of water and blood-based proteins. Amongst other things, it helps to carry vitamins and hormones throughout the body. Donated plasma can go to some important causes, like assisting burn victims and for treatments of serious disorders, including hemophilia and immune system deficiencies."

"text": "Q: Can I Donate Blood Plasma? Eligibility Requirements for Donation Answer: You are eligible to give blood plasma if you are between the ages of 18-64, and are feeling healthy (not sick with cold or flu symptoms.) Healthy adults without immune diseases, no STD's or tattoos, and non-pregnant women can donate plasma and blood. If you meet the plasma donation requirements, you are also eligible to donate bone marrow, platelets, double red cells, organs, and other body tissues. Can I Donate if I have a tattoo? No, you can't give blood plasma if you have a tattoo - not for a long time. Donation centers (both blood banks and plasma centers) have different rules on deferral time, but generally you can't donate for 6 months - 1 year after getting a tattoo. How will the blood bank/plasma center determine deferral time? After getting a tattoo, you must bring in a signed doctor's note, complete with contact information of the tattoo artist, address where you got the tattoo, and date the tattoo was inked. Expect some rejections even after bringing a note - blood banks and plasma centers are have several restrictions about donating when you have a tattoo."

Well you will get a mini physical prior to donating including vital signs (blood pressure, pulse and temperature ) and they will check your blood count. Beyond that, you will boost your karmic health by helping someone who needs blood or some component of blood i.e platelets. Is it Unhealthy? Generally speaking, when you donate blood (whole blood=plasma + red cells and platelets ) you donate a pint which is about half a liter or some 10% or so of your total blood volume. Your body can sense that you have donated blood (peritubular cells in the kidneys) and secretes a protein called erythropoietin that stimulates bone marrow stem cells to differentiate into new red cells. White blood cells and platelets are stimulated by other factors. While your body can produce some two million new red cells every second, it still takes weeks for the ones you donated to be replaced. So, whole blood donors are generally required to wait some two to three months to donate a second time. [ white cells and plateletes generally renew within a week ] With plasma donation it's a bit different."

My husband went to go give plasma for the second time today, and the center deferred him for the bruises on his arm before he could even donate (he got them two days ago). I had similar bruises in the past and went in to donate blood as well as blood tests and they never told to wait until the bruises healed. Answer: You can't donate plasma with a fresh, non-healed bruise on your arm (some nurses might let you get away with it though). However, you have the right to donate plasma once the bruise has passed the pale yellow stage and is mostly healed - meaning that most of the blood is gone from the skin. Typically when it fades from purple to green or yellow, bruising will disappear the next day. If you have a bruise near where the needle goes into both arms (even your backup arm), you will then be adjourned until the bruise has disappeared. If a bruise happens while you are donating plasma, most centers will stop the donation to keep it from getting worse. A bruise is the result of blunt force trauma to tissue capillaries, which causes them to crack."

So should I work out after plasma donating, wait for my athletic performance to return to normal levels, or skip plasma donations altogether? Answer: Exercising immediately after donating plasma can cause a rupture at the donation site. Since red blood cells carry oxygen to the body, you'll notice the effects of donating first in your breathing, stamina, and recovery time following exercise. You need the blood to supply oxygen to your muscles and remove co2. So, you should not exercise for 24 hours after donating plasma."

One of the major hazards of a wood-burning stove or fireplace is the development of creosote, a chemical that can build up on the inside of chimneys and flues. Regular cleaning and inspection, preferably by a professional, will prevent buildup, but you can prevent buildup yourself, as well, using chemicals that protect your fireplace from hazardous buildup and help you keep your home safe and clean. Creosote Creosote is a tarry substance that forms when wood burns and is carried up the inside of a chimney as part of the smoke. The creosote collects on the inside of the chimney and traps carbon, usually soot, which is also part of the smoke from burning wood. The mixture dries and bakes against the inside of the chimney. Not only does this cause ventilation problems, but the mixture is quite flammable, and a chimney fire is dangerous and can lead to the destruction of your chimney or even your home. Sodium Chloride Sodium chloride, also known as table salt, is a simple chemical that is easy to find. Put a little salt in the fire while it is burning. The salt combines with the water in the burning wood to create a weak acid that travels up the chimney and dissolves small amounts of creosote."

Creosote is actually just one of the components in the stuff (aside from the ash) that’s left over when wood is burned. The whole mix of tar and creosote and soot is commonly called creosote. The term is almost exclusively used when talking about burning wood. If discussing soot resulting from burning oil, or even gas, this is just soot and it’s just called soot. Though the black residue in the chimney from burning wood is called creosote, it is in fact mostly tar. There are, generally speaking, three types of creosote are found in chimneys and they are usually called ‘stages’ or ‘degrees.’ All three forms are all combustible and should be removed. First Degree Creosote Buildup First degree creosote has a high percentage of soot and can be removed from a chimney effectively with a chimney brush. First degree creosote develops when there is a relatively good combustion of the wood and/or relatively high flue gas temperatures."

OXIDATION: Oxidation occurs as a result of too much oxygen being dissolved into the wine. Dissolved oxygen is present in all wines at varying degrees and when it is at a perfect level, then the wine is considered optimally \"\"opened up\"\" where the tannins have softened and the fruit is more expansive, \"\"rounder\"\", and fuller. However, when too much oxygen is present, then the wine begins to lose its structure, the fruit appears tired and the wine tastes \"\"madeirized\"\". The best way to know what this smells and tastes like is to try a madeira or port wine. These will have some deliberate oxidative qualities that will provide you with a benchmark to know when a wine has reached an inappropriate level of oxidation. The caveat to this is that there are certain styles of wine such as older world, Rioja Gran Reservas that because of their extended oak aging usually display a level of oxidative aromas and flavors considered acceptable for them that would not be acceptable for other wines.

"text": "A creosote build-up is the sticky residue that remains in a chimney after wood has been burned. It is composed of unburned wood ash, the oily residue and natural gases that are released through wood combustion, particularly from burning unseasoned wet wood. After many burning cycles, it turns into a hard blackened glaze that coats the inside of both fireplace and wood-burning stove chimneys. If left without being cleaned, it can become a fire hazard, and so must be removed. Things You'll Need Creosote remover--liquid spray or powder Heavy bristle brush Spray a creosote-dissolving liquid onto the creosote in your chimney. Some products recommend spraying the liquid directly into the fire, which spreads the vapor onto the creosote buildup. These liquids are available at hardware stores and come in their own easy-to-use spray bottles. Sprinkle some creosote-dissolving powder into the fire as it burns. The powder will react with the fire and coat the creosote build-up in your chimney. This action will dissolve the glaze on the creosote, causing it to expand and contract rapidly."

Creosote is the name used for a variety of products: wood creosote, coal tar creosote, coal tar, coal tar pitch and coal tar pitch volatiles. These products are mixtures of many chemicals created by burning beech and other woods or coal, or from the resin of creosote bushes. Wood creosote is a colorless to yellowish greasy liquid with a smoky odor and burned taste. It has historically been used as a disinfectant, a laxative, and a cough treatment, but such uses are now considered obsolete. Coal tar creosote is the most widely used wood preservative in the United States. It consists of a thick, oily liquid typically amber to black in color. The EPA has determined that coal tar creosote is a probable human carcinogen. What is required by New York State law? Article 27, Title 25, (27-2501 through 27-2513), of New York State Law, requires that after January 1, 2008: Creosote or products containing creosote shall not be manufactured, sold or used in this state."

"text": "5 Reasons Your Fireplace May Smell Bad A fireplace is designed to provide warmth and beauty. You can expect that no smelly odors will come into your home from the fireplace. Bad smells do happen, however, and for a number of different reasons. Most of the issues which cause an odor to emit from the fireplace are resolved when our professional Atlanta area chimney sweep cleans and inspects your chimney and addresses all of the problems that may be encountered in the process. The following are common causes of a smelly fireplace, along with possible solutions:1-Negative Air Pressure One of the leading reasons odors enter the home through a fireplace is negative air pressure in the home. This problem comes up most frequently during the summer, after improvements have been made, such as weatherizing, changing the venting system, or installing a new roof, windows, bathroom exhaust, or kitchen exhaust fans. When the home is sealed too tightly, even the mild odors common for chimneys escape into the home instead of up the chimney. The following are a few simple solutions which could resolve the negative air pressure problem: Keep the fireplace damper closed when the fireplace isn’t being used. If the dampers don’t seal well, this likely won’t be an effective solution. Install a glass fireplace screen."

( September 2011)A 19th-century example of a wood-burning stove A wood-burning stove (or wood burner or log burner in the UK) is a heating appliance capable of burning wood fuel and wood-derived biomass fuel, such as sawdust bricks. Generally the appliance consists of a solid metal (usually cast iron or steel) closed firebox, often lined by fire brick, and one or more air controls (which can be manually or automatically operated depending upon the stove). The first wood burning stove was patented in Strasbourg in 1557, two centuries before the Industrial Revolution would make iron an inexpensive and common material, so such stoves were high end consumer items and only gradually spread in use. [ 1] [a]The stove is connected by ventilating stove pipe to a suitable flue, which will fill with hot combustion gases once the fuel is ignited. The chimney or flue gases must be hotter than the outside temperature to ensure combustion gases are drawn out of the fire chamber and up the chimney.

Feb 21, 2013 #2vetmp Smoke Blower Newburgh (Town), New York As far as I am aware there is no adverse effects of eating smoked meat. Smoking simply adds flavor and whatever rubs or marinades you use to create your flavor profile can be altered to be gluten free, low sodium what have you. There is nothing that causes health effects. It is simply meat cooked low and slow with some wood added.

[ 1])The name is nominally a registered trademark of Taiko Pharmaceutical [ ja] ( 大幸薬品Taikō Yakuhin) based in Suita, Osaka which is still the major market-share holder, but the enforceability of the tradename has been voided by the Supreme Court of Japan, which ruled seirogan to be a common generic name. The ruling only recognizes proprietary use of the bugle logo by Taiko, [2] but not protection of its characteristic packaging. As a result, dozens of extremely similar packaged drugs are being manufactured and sold in the market.

It contains wood-tar creosote ( 木クレオソート) as its main active ingredient. [ 3] That ingredient in the West may otherwise go by such names as \"\"wood creosote\"\", \"\"beechwood creosote\"\", or \"\"liquid pitch oil\"\", and should be distinguished from industrial \"\"coal-tar creosote\"\". To emphasize the distinction, wood creosote in Japan is sometimes called by such names as Nikkyokuhō kureosōto ( 日局方クレオソート\"\"Japanese Pharmacopoeia creosote\"\") and minor variants thereof. The wood creosote is blended with two or more crude medicines ( 生薬 shōyaku) recognized in Chinese materia medica ( 漢方薬 kanpōyaku) for their antiseptic and other effects, but the additional ingredients used are different among manufacturers (See under #Chemical composition for a sampling of formulas). Some quarters (perhaps kanpō medicine practitioners and others) insist however that \"\"Seirogan is not strictly speaking kanpō medicine\"\", and this point was emphatically printed in a retraction by a certain consumer-watch type book that criticized seirogan but had confused wood creosote with the industrial type [4] (See #accusation controversy )."

The material can withstand extreme heat that would damage stainless steel or porcelain. Although these grills are the some of the toughest ones around, that does not mean that a user can completely avoid regular maintenance, and cast iron can still develop rust when you leave it exposed to the elements. Thankfully, you can buy what you need to clean and restore rusted cast iron grill grates from local brick and mortar stores and online marketplaces, such as e Bay. Outdoor chefs and grill masters need their equipment in the best condition, so learning about restoring and maintaining your cast iron grill grates can help you keep them in top shape. With some careful buying and the right application, you can make sure your cast iron grill avoids the rusting that plagues other grills and always be ready for the next barbecue. Cleaning Options Typically, rust is quite harmless, and the minimal amount that can get onto food can help prevent anemia. However, it is still recommended that those who use a cast iron outdoor grill clean and perform regular maintenance on the grates to prevent rust from forming. Once rust has already formed, there are many ways to remove the rust from old, used, or even vintage grills. You may already have most of the necessary cleaning products around the home."

"text": "\"Rust Remediesby Kristen Hewitt | Monday, July 13th, 2009 | Posted In: Home and Garden You’ll find it on your bike handle, your tools, your pipes and your car, especially after a long snowy winter or rainy spring. Rust occurs when metal faces prolonged contact with water, and combines with oxygen in a process called oxidation. The process corrodes the metal, dissolving it into the chalky reddish-brown substance known as rust. The best way to deal with rust is to prevent it by keeping metal surfaces dry. Of course, this is not always possible. You could buy rust removal products containing toxic chemicals that are both bad for the environment and dangerous to keep around young children and pets. But there are many safer solutions, and you probably already have everything you need for them at home–here are six safe and easy rust removing tricks to get you started:1 — A good place to begin is simply scrubbing the rusty surface with steel wool, sandpaper, a wire brush, or even a crumpled up ball of tin foil. If the metal hasn’t rusted too deeply, a little elbow grease will go a long way. But even if the rust is deep, it’s a good idea to eliminate outer flakes of rust first, before using other methods.2 — For more stubborn rust, try using white vinegar. The acetic acid in this common household product is acidic enough to dissolve rust."

Background I've had this Maine 'buoy bell' wind chime for about eight years now. I really like it. It has the haunting melancholy sound of a bell buoy at sea being tossed by wind and waves. It is made of COR-TEN steel which is designed to rust on the surface to create a protective barrier against further rusting. It came painted black on the outside and was supposed to develop this rich rust patina naturally over time. Well, the unpainted inside did rust completely after about a year, but the outside only rusted slightly, near the bottom, even after exposure to the sun, rain, and snow of the northeast for eight years. I wanted it to have a nice rust patina that looked like it had been hanging on the eaves of a lobster shack, at the end of a pier, for many a year, being splashed and buffeted by nor'easters and sudden gales. Seeing it was taking so long, I decided to take things into my own hands and, ah, \"\"help\"\" mother nature along and accelerate the process. I searched the net and found mostly dangerous methods to induce rust on steel using highly caustic or acidic chemical solutions."

If the rust damage has not corroded through the metal and is no more than two to four inches in diameter, you can repair the area yourself over a two-day weekend."

"text": "How To Treat Acid Well Water On private water systems, one of the most common causes of pipe and fixture corrosion is from low p H, which can be defined as acidic water with a p H of less than 7.0 p H. Signs of acid water are corrosion of fixtures, blue staining (from copper pipes) or rust staining (from iron pipes). Common causes for acidic water are acid rainfall due to atmospheric carbon dioxide and other airborne pollutants, runoff from mining spoils, and decomposition of plant materials. Corrosion is a natural process involving chemical or electrical degradation of metals in contact with water. Acidic water with p H values in the range of 6 to 7 is more corrosive to the metals used in plumbing systems than alkaline water. Both ground water (wells) and surface waters (such as spring water or creeks) can be acidic. Acidic waters are typically low in buffering calcium minerals, but are high in dissolved carbon?dioxide gas, which can cause the low p H or acidity. Calcite Neutralizer tanks with natural crushed and screened pure calcium carbonate easily neutralize acidic waters from 6.0 to 6.9. Below 6.0 a blend of calcite and ‘Corosex©” is recommended. Common systems used to treat low p H: Calcite Neutralizer Calcite & Corosex Blend Neutralizer Upflow Neutralizer Soda Ash Feed Pump Injection System Questions to Ask When Choosing a Neutralizer: What is the p H, hardness, total dissolved solids, and alkalinity of my water?

Answer by JEK Confidence votes 15.8KOxidation means the loss of electrons in metal atoms. The oxidation of a metal occurs when the metal loses one or more electrons, so that the atoms of the metal go from the neutral state and become a positively charge ion. This commonly results in the formation of a metal oxide (in the case of iron, that is known as rust). It occurs in the presence of oxygen.

"text": "Rust Inspection and Preventionby Nick Gromicko Rusting describes the process of the corrosion of iron and its alloy, steel. Inter NACHI inspectors, homeowners and commercial property owners should understand how rust forms and how to prevent it. Rust is more than a cosmetic issue; it can lead to serious structural deterioration. Rust Formation Rusting is a common form of corrosion – an electrochemical process leading to the disintegration of a material into its constituent atoms – a category that also includes galvanic corrosion, pitting corrosion, and crevice corrosion. Rust usually appears as a red, brown or orange flaking or pitting of the metal surface. Rust is formed when oxygen comes into sustained contact with iron in a process called oxidation. Oxygen is delivered to the metal from water, either from liquid water or water vapor. Carbon dioxide in the air combines with water to form a weak carbonic acid, dissolving the water into its component parts – hydrogen and oxygen – as well as causing some of the iron to dissolve. The free oxygen bonds with the dissolved iron to form iron oxide or rust. Oxidation catalysts, such as saltwater and air, acids and acid rain, soils, and airborne sulfur compounds, will accelerate rust formation."

Mechanical factors of stress, vibration and thermal-shocks arising out of frequent change of temperatures. Formation of inter-granular chemical reaction sites during the manufacture of alloys including steel.

If you use them, make sure to wear rubber gloves and carefully follow all of the instructions and precautions that are provided by the manufacturer. This will remove the rust and protect you from the toxic chemicals. If you would rather avoid toxic chemicals, there are several common household items that can safely remove rust from metal, including white vinegar, baking soda, sandpaper and steel wool. Vinegar White vinegar can often work well for small items, such as earrings. Just pour a little vinegar into a glass, and let the items have a good soak. After you see that the rust has dissolved, just rinse off the jewelry, and dry it with a cloth. Vinegar can also be used on bigger items.

Many of the free dump stations available to RVers are closing because of chemicals that are harmful to septic systems and because RVers are abusing these dump stations. If we want to have access to these dump stations it is absolutely essential that we use septic safe chemicals (no formaldehyde), and that we clean up after ourselves and do not abuse dump stations. Your RV has what is referred to as a gray water holding tank and a black water holding tank. The gray water holding tank collects dirty water from the kitchen sink, bathroom sink and shower. The black water holding tank is for the toilet. These tanks terminate into one main outlet used to empty the holding tanks. This is where we connect our sewer hose.

The Bureau of Imperial Supplies began producing 720,000 sheets of toilet tissue per year.15th Century1400-1600 : In Renaissance Europe, paper was in high demand by the educated and elite society. Paper thus became an essential commodity, but the demand was too great for the supply at the time. Rags were the principal raw material and in short supply.16th Century1596: The Flushing Toilet was invented by Sir John Harrington, who was a British nobleman and godson to Queen Elizabeth I.

Yet, if you travel to certain parts of Europe, South America, the Middle East, or Japan, bidets are commonplace – and they wouldn't have it any other way. For those who aren't familiar with how they work, a bidet looks similar to a toilet but it is designed to help you freshen up after toilet use. Most modern bidets have one or more jets that spray water, allowing you to straddle the device for a cleansing far superior to toilet paper. In fact, the word \"\"bidet\"\" comes from the French stout pony by the same name. It got its name because sitting astride a bidet is very similar to the position you would take if riding the small horse. Today, there are even better and easier to use bidet seats (which you can put atop a regular toilet) and bidet toilets, which are like a toilet and a bidet in one (a wand under the seat sprays water). Bidet seats are far less expensive to purchase and install and although some high-end ones retail for $1500, many can easily be found for well under $100 (with no need for a plumber). For me, they are an essential part of my hygiene. In fact, the thing I miss most when I travel is having access to my bidet, so I always bring along my portable travel bidet (which is similar to a plastic spray bottle, but much easier to direct the water flow) when I leave home for an extended period."

I kept a few of the ones that broke when I removed them from the molds and was planning to use them myself. I had them in a bag by my bathtub and my one year old got into them (in true one-year old fashion). She was going through a phase of putting everything in the toilet, and these were no exception. My first reaction was to stifle my annoyance for yet another thing being thrown in the toilet, and then I was angry that I wouldn’t get to use the bath fizzies myself. I didn’t want to flush the toilet until they finished fizzing since I wasn’t sure that would be good for the pipes. As I stood there watching them fizz and mourning the loss of my relaxing bath, I noticed that the toilet seemed to be getting cleaner as they fizzed. I used the toilet brush to make sure they had all dissolved and when I flushed the toilet, I was shocked how clean it was. I realized that the bath fizzies had a lot of ingredients that were naturally detoxing, and that these ingredients also worked great for detoxing and cleaning toilettes.

The purpose of this paper is to summarize what is known about health effects associated with sewage damage into indoor environments and to make technical recommendations for safe mitigation. Risks to health from specific pathogens (including airborne) are considered, the classes of disinfectants and their properties as well as contaminated material, degree of severity and the length of time of the contamination are addressed. Water Cleanup is not a matter of \"\"if\"\" Water Cleanup is a matter of \"\"when.\"\" All properties will need water cleanup service at some point. Pipes burst, washing machines overflow, and sewage backs up into homes everyday across the nation. Finding the right water cleanup company to perform your water damage restoration can be challenging. It is this challenge that makes dealing with a water cleanup so frustrating. It is important to know the risks involved with unattended water cleanup situations. Not only can a water cleanup situation cause damage to your property, if left untreated water damage can cause mental and physical harm to both you and your family."

"text": "Slow Close Toilet Seat Hinges You can solve more problems than you think by installing or fixing a slow or self closing toilet seat. These seats with their nifty toilet seat hinges will most likely be in everyone’s bathrooms someday. If you haven’t upgraded already, then you’ll want to read about a few reasons how they can make life in the bathroom easier (not to mention, smoother and quieter). What is a slow close toilet seat? A slow close toilet seat, if you don’t know, is basically one that closes on its own as soon as you start to push it down. Even just a light tap can get it going. After a few seconds, everything comes to rest like a small feather landing on the floor. It’s whisper quiet. Designed with special toilet seat hinges, these seats lower very slowly and make virtually no sound when they come to their closed position.5 great reasons to use such a special toilet seat hinge The benefits of a slow close toilet seat are numerous. The biggest of course is that you’ll never have a seat slam down again with a soft close toilet seat."

Turn off water to the toilet at the shut off valve below and to the side of the toilet. Now, flush the toilet and observe where the water goes from inside the tank. You will see the flapper pull up and the water flows through the outlet. Some of this water goes through the holes in the rim."

Yttrium is a chemical element which is part of the series of elements known as transition metals. Since its initial discovery in the late 1700s, yttrium has established itself as a useful and versatile element. Whether in the field of scientific research or through its commonplace function in household televisions, yttrium has become very important to modern life. Contents [ hide ]1 History2 Properties3 Occurrences3.1 Extraction4 Uses5 Superconductivity6 References History In 1787, a Swedish army lieutenant named Carl Axel Arrhenius found an interesting new stone near Ytterby, a small village near Stockholm. He gave the stone to Gadolin, a Finnish chemistry professor. Upon studying the rock, Gadolin discovered that a new element was in it; he named this element yttrium. In 1843, scientist Carl Gustaf Mosander discovered that the original stone was not pure yttrium, but that it actually contained a total of ten elements including yttrium. He named three of these erbium, terbium, and ytterbium after the town in which they were discovered. In this way, the town of Ytterby became the namesake for four new elements. ["

It is a relatively rare element in the universe, usually occurring as a product of the spallation of larger atomic nuclei that have collided with cosmic rays. Within the cores of stars beryllium is depleted as it is fused and creates larger elements. It is a divalent element which occurs naturally only in combination with other elements in minerals. Notable gemstones which contain beryllium include beryl ( aquamarine, emerald) and chrysoberyl. As a free element it is a steel-gray, strong, lightweight and brittle alkaline earth metal. Beryllium improves many physical properties when added as an alloying element to aluminium, copper (notably the alloy beryllium copper ), iron and nickel. ["

The carbonates and related nitrates and borates are common constituents of the earth's near-surface crust. This is a structurally-related as well as chemically-related group. The basic anionic (negatively charged) unit of this class consists of a triangle where at the center resides either a carbon, nitrogen or boron atom. At every corner of the triangle sits an oxygen atom. The threefold symmetry of the triangle explains the trigonal symmetry that many members of this class possess. As long as the triangles of the anionic group fall in a plane parallel with the plane of the triangle and all other bonds in the structure, when viewed perpendicular to this plane, are multiples of three, and are evenly separated from each other, the mineral will have a trigonal symmetry. As complicated as this seems it is in fact the simplest condition of the carbonates. Simplicity often expresses the highest symmetry.

Named for the town of Strontian, Scotland. Say what? Strontium is pronounced as STRON-she-em. History and Uses: Strontium was discovered by Adair Crawford, an Irish chemist, in 1790 while studying the mineral witherite (Ba CO 3 ). When he mixed witherite with hydrochloric acid (HCl) he did not get the results he expected. He assumed that his sample of witherite was contaminated with an unknown mineral, a mineral he named strontianite (Sr CO 3 ). Strontium was first isolated by Sir Humphry Davy, an English chemist, in 1808 through the electrolysis of a mixture of strontium chloride (Sr Cl 2) and mercuric oxide (Hg O). Today, strontium is obtained from two of its most common ores, celestite (Sr SO 4) and strontianite (Sr CO 3 ), by treating them with hydrochloric acid, forming strontium chloride. The strontium chloride, usually mixed with potassium chloride (KCl), is then melted and electrolyzed, forming strontium and chlorine gas (Cl 2 )."

Yttria-- earth containing yttrium-- was discovered by Gadolin in 1794. Ytterby is the site of a quarry which yielded many unusual minerals containing rare earths and other elements. This small town, near Stockholm, bears the honor of giving names to erbium, terbium, and ytterbium as well as yttrium. In 1843 Mosander showed that yttira could be resolved into the oxides (or earths) of three elements. The name yttria was reserved for the most basic one; the others were named erbia and terbia. Sources Yttrium occurs in nearly all of the rare-earth minerals. Analysis of lunar rock samples obtained during the Apollo missions show a relatively high yttrium content. It is recovered commercially from monazite sand, which contains about 3%, and from bastnasite, which contains about 0.2%."

Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The mineral group is Hematite Group Formula: M2O3 also known as the Corundum Group. A group of simple, rhombohedral oxides, where M = Al, Fe, V, Cr, Ti. It needs to be understood how minerals are organized first by class, groups, (some subgroups), and last, species. You can not just say oxides because that would be only naming the class that hematite belongs with. Your question asks for which \"\"group\"\" does hematite belong to. This means that the group that it belongs with is the Hematite Group. Please see the information I have listed along with the sources sighted. Minerals can be organized, mainly according to their chemistry, into the following classes: This a list of CLASSes Consisting of: Carbonates The Carbonates, the Nitrates and the Borates Elements The Metals and their alloys and the Nonmetals Halides The Fluorides, the Chlorides and the Iodides Oxides The Oxides and the Hydroxides Phosphates The Phosphates, the Arsenates, the Vanadates and the Antimonates Silicates The Silicates (the largest class) Sulfates The Sulfates, the Sulfites, the Chromates, the Molybdates, the Selenates, the Selenites, the Tellurates, the Tellurites and the Tungstates (or the Wolframates) Sulfides The Sulfides, the Selenides, the Tellurides, the Arsenides, the Antimonides, the Bismuthinides and the Sulfosalts Mineraloids The \"\"Minerals\"\" that lack crystal structure!

Being a typical member of the lanthanide series, europium usually assumes the oxidation state +3, but the oxidation state +2 is also common. All europium compounds with oxidation state +2 are slightly reducing. Europium has no significant biological role and is relatively non-toxic compared to other heavy metals.

It is a relatively rare element in the universe, usually occurring as a product of the spallation of larger atomic nuclei that have collided with cosmic rays. Within the cores of stars beryllium is depleted as it is fused and creates larger elements. It is a divalent element which occurs naturally only in combination with other elements in minerals. Notable gemstones which contain beryllium include beryl ( aquamarine, emerald) and chrysoberyl. As a free element it is a steel-gray, strong, lightweight and brittle alkaline earth metal. Beryllium improves many physical properties when added as an alloying element to aluminium, copper (notably the alloy beryllium copper ), iron and nickel. ["

It occurs naturally mainly in the minerals celestine, strontianite and is mined mostly from the first two of these. While natural strontium is stable, the synthetic 90Sr isotope is radioactive and is one of the most dangerous components of nuclear fallout, as strontium is absorbed by the body in a similar manner to calcium.

This is because they are formed from naturally occurring radioactive isotopes which, by necessity, have extremely long lifetimes - comparable or greater than the age of the Earth itself. The radioactivity of an isotope is strongly dependent upon its half-life. Tritium (hydrogen-3) has a half-life of only 11.2 years, meaning that half of it decays every 11 years. It is highly radioactive - but not nearly as radioactive as some isotopes used in medicine, such as Technetium-99 with a half-life of only 6 hours. A unit of Technetium-99 emits 16,000 times as much radiation per second than does Tritium, which in turn is 7,000,000 times as radioactive as Plutonium!There are no plutonium minerals. Consider Plutonium-244 (the most stable isotope of plutonium). It has a half-life of 82 million years - and consequently is not very radioactive. Yet in the 4.5 billion year existence of the Earth, the total number of remaining atoms dropped in half 550 times. There simply is none left to form minerals."

Updated March 20, 201810 Everyday Items That Emit Radiation Would you be surprised to learn you are exposed to radioactive products and food every day?. f Stop Images - Jutta Kuss, Getty Images You are exposed to radioactivity every day, often from the foods you eat and the products you use. Here is a look at some common everyday materials that are radioactive. Some of these objects may pose a health risk, but most of them are a harmless part of your everyday environment. In almost all cases, you get more exposure to radiation if you take a ride in a plane or get a dental x-ray. Still, it's good to know the sources of your exposure. Brazil Nuts Are Radioactive Jennifer Levy/Getty Images Brazil nuts are probably the most radioactive food you can eat. They provide 5,600 p Ci/kg (picocuries per kilogram) of potassium-40 and a whopping 1,000-7,000 p Ci/kg of radium-226. Although the radium is not retained by the body for very long, the nuts are approximately 1,000 times more radioactive than other foods."

There are two factors that greatly affect the image quality. One is the VGA driver - the display card. Many are designed to drive only short distances and do not perform well above 10 to 20 feet. The other is the cable itself. VGA is a high resolution video signal and demands a properly designed cable to carry it over a long distance. Many short VGA cables do not comply with the transmission standards for long distances. They work over a length of 5 feet or so but for long distance transmission, 75 ohm co-ax cable is needed for each of the red, green and blue signals."

From Mount Marcy in the Adirondacks to the Federal Dam, the river’s elevation drops from over 4,000 feet to about 4 feet. From Troy to the Battery in NYC, a distance of over 150 miles, the river is barely above sea level. The Hudson River Estuary is also considered a fjord, a drowned river valley cut by a glacier. Some 20,000 years ago, a miles worth of ice lay on top of the Hudson Valley. The massive glacier cut through the mountains and eventually left a pile of debris as it retreated became Long Island. The fjord nature of the river is most evident in the Hudson Highlands near West Point. The estuary is where the Clearwater sails and where amazing diversities of life and habitat are found.

That’s not just fast for a woman. Lisicki’s record-setting shot—which broke Venus Williams’ mark of 129 mph—is faster than any serve Roger Federer has hit in 2014, according to statistics provided to me by the Association of Tennis Professionals. Lisicki, who lost in the third round of the U. S. Open to Maria Sharapova, stuck around long enough to blast the speediest serve of any woman at this year’s U. S. Open (124 mph). That’s just barely slower than the best effort in the Open of top men’s seed Novak Djokovic (125 mph) and equal to or better than the fastest serves of at least 29 men, including seeded players Kei Nishikori, Richard Gasquet, David Ferrer, Guillermo García-López, and Mikhail Youzhny.

Both endeavors faced formidable obstacles—physical, psychological, political, and technical—that often appeared insurmountable. The story of Everest, therefore, is the story of both its discovery and its conquest. George Leigh Mallory’s famous answer to the question “Why climb Everest?” was “Because it’s there.” Why it was there, like why it was called Everest, did not concern him. In fact, its magnificent height, the summit of the highest range of mountains on earth, is the result of tectonic action—the inconceivably powerful geologic force that moves the continental landmasses against each other. The landmass of India is forced against the landmass of Asia, and the Himalayan ranges are pushed up in between. The process continues inexorably to this day, lifting the entire Himalayan range by several millimeters each year. This range, which is really a complex skein of ranges, is the mightiest geographical feature on the earth’s surface."

Usually, this was done entirely by hand or with the help of horses. It was not until the construction of the Erie Canal that an ingenious workman invented a stump-puller; using this device, seven men and a team of horses could pull forty stumps in a day. Considering the density of forest through which many roads ran, even this was slow progress indeed. Once debris was cleared, leveling began. This was the distinguishing mark of an improved road, separating it from paths for foot travel or animal migration. Using hand-held rakes, hoes or sometimes horse-drawn scrapers, farmers and rural laborers supervised by township officials created a surface amenable to wagon and stage travel. The land also had to be surveyed by a professional to determine the most efficient route between two points."

That's pushing the limit, to some degree, and will be highly dependent on how well the cable is made, shielding, etc. If you're worried about reliability, I would go under that, probably no more than 3 meters (~10 feet). USB 3.0 doesn't actually specify a maximum length, but we're still talking copper here generally, and so the maximum practical length is probably around 3 meters to meet the speed requirements, so on USB 3.0, I'd go less than that again, maybe 2 meters (~6.5 feet). My source for this is Wikipedia which is usually pretty good at explaining standards items. In this regards, I'd probably trust them. In any case, 10 feet is a pretty decent cable length, but if you need much longer, you can also get USB repeaters, bearing in mind that you often get what you pay for with these."

"text": "\"How Many? A Dictionary of Units of Measurement © Russ Rowlett and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Table of Contents About the Dictionary Using the Dictionary English Customary Weights and Measures Distance In all traditional measuring systems, short distance units are based on the dimensions of the human body. The inch represents the width of a thumb; in fact, in many languages, the word for \"\"inch\"\" is also the word for \"\"thumb.\"\" The foot (12 inches) was originally the length of a human foot, although it has evolved to be longer than most people's feet. The yard (3 feet) seems to have gotten its start in England as the name of a 3-foot measuring stick, but it is also understood to be the distance from the tip of the nose to the end of the middle finger of the outstretched hand. Finally, if you stretch your arms out to the sides as far as possible, your total \"\"arm span,\"\" from one fingertip to the other, is a fathom (6 feet). Historically, there are many other \"\"natural units\"\" of the same kind, including the digit (the width of a finger, 0.75 inch), the nail (length of the last two joints of the middle finger, 3 digits or 2.25 inches), the palm (width of the palm, 3 inches), the hand (4 inches), the shaftment (width of the hand and outstretched thumb, 2 palms or 6 inches), the span (width of the outstretched hand, from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the little finger, 3 palms or 9 inches), and the cubit (length of the forearm, 18 inches). In Anglo-Saxon England (before the Norman conquest of 1066), short distances seem to have been measured in several ways. The inch ( ynce) was defined to be the length of 3 barleycorns, which is very close to its modern length. The shaftment was frequently used, but it was roughly 6.5 inches long."

"text": "The Suspension Bridge Prev NEXTSan Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge stands as a classic example of a suspension bridge. Regine Mahaux/Photodisc/ Getty Images As the name implies, suspension bridges, like the Golden Gate Bridge or Brooklyn Bridge, suspend the roadway by cables, ropes or chains from two tall towers. These towers support the majority of the weight as compression pushes down on the suspension bridge's deck and then travels up the cables, ropes or chains to transfer compression to the towers. The towers then dissipate the compression directly into the earth. The supporting cables, on the other hand, receive the bridge's tension forces. These cables run horizontally between the two far-flung anchorages. Bridge anchorages are essentially solid rock or massive concrete blocks in which the bridge is grounded. Tensional force passes to the anchorages and into the ground. In addition to the cables, almost all suspension bridges feature a supporting truss system beneath the bridge deck called a deck truss. This helps to stiffen the deck and reduce the tendency of the roadway to sway and ripple."

"text": "DVI vs. HDMI vs. Component Video — Which is Better? As DVI and HDMI connections become more and more widely used, we are often asked: which is better, DVI (or HDMI) or component video? The answer, as it happens, is not cut-and-dried. First, to clear away one element that can be confusing: DVI and HDMI are exactly the same as one another, image-quality-wise. The principal differences are that HDMI carries audio as well as video, and uses a different type of connector, but both use the same encoding scheme, and that’s why a DVI source can be connected to an HDMI monitor, or vice versa, with a DVI/HDMI cable, with no intervening converter box. The upshot of this article–in case you’re not inclined to read all the details–is that it’s very hard to predict whether a digital DVI or HDMI connection will produce a better or worse image than an analog component video connection. There will often be significant differences between the digital and the analog signals, but those differences are not inherent in the connection type and instead depend upon the characteristics of the source device (e.g., your DVD player) and the display device (e.g., your TV set). Why that is, however, requires a bit more discussion. What are DVI, HDMI and Component Video? DVI/HDMI and Component Video are all video standards which support a variety of resolutions, but which deliver the signal from the source to the display in very different ways."

XLR cables have three pins and a circular connector. They are used to deliver balanced microphone and line-level signals over long distances. An XLR cable's ability to deliver a balanced signal means that the final audio signal will have less unwanted noise from outside electrical interference. This preserves the original audio signal, even over long distances and near other electronic devices. Video of the Day Image of an XLR cable and microphone jack.credit: BTRmc/i Stock/Getty Images Unbalanced Cables Unbalanced audio cables have two wires that serve as conductors; one carries both the signal and the ground. They are less expensive, but are susceptible to noise caused by interference from the electrical fields of nearby electronic devices. For this reason, unbalanced cables should not be used for audio applications that require long cables. The maximum suggested length for balanced cables is 25 to 30 feet."

So the distance between Earth and any other planet changes over a wide range, depending on whether we're both on the same side of the sun or on opposite sides. At any given time, the planet closest to Earth could be either Mercury, Venus, or Mars. Jupiter (the next planet out) at its closest is further away than Mercury or Venus at their furthest, so it has to be one of those three. The planet that can be closest to Earth when we're both in the same part of our orbits is Venus. The minimum distance between us and Venus is about 25.5 million miles, or about 28% of the distance from earth to the sun. ====================================== While we're on the subject, this is also a good time to mention Mars. After Venus, Mars is the next nearest planet to Earth. When everything is right, the closest Mars can get to the earth is about 48.5 million miles. That's more than half the distance from Earth to the sun; at that distance, it takes light (and radio communication with the two rovers on the surface) a little over 4 minutes to travel between Mars and Earth."

Unless we’re griping about Time Zones, enjoying the extra day of a Leap Year, or contemplating the rationality of Daylight Savings Time, we tend to take it all for granted. But when you consider the fact that increments like a year are entirely relative, dependent on a specific space and place, you begin to see how time really works. Here on Earth, we consider a year to be 365 days. Unless of course it’s a Leap Year, which takes place every four years (in which it is 366). But the actual definition of a year is the time it takes our planet to complete a single orbit around the Sun. So if you were to put yourself in another frame of reference – say, another planet – a year would work out to something else."

"text": "\"SUMMARYThe solar system consists of the Sun and everything that orbits it, including the nine major planets, the moons that orbit them, and the many small bodies found in interplanetary space. The science of comparative planetology compares and contrasts the properties of the diverse bodies found in the solar system, to understand better the conditions under which planets form and develop. The asteroids, or \"\"minor planets,\"\" are small bodies, none of them larger than Earth's Moon, most of which orbit in a broad band called the asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Comets are chunks of ice found mostly in the outer solar system. Their importance to planetary astronomy lies in the fact that they are thought to be \"\"leftover\"\" material from the formation of the solar system and therefore contain clues to the very earliest stages of its development. The major planets orbit the Sun in the same sense—counterclockwise as viewed from above Earth's North Pole—on roughly circular orbits that lie close to the ecliptic plane. The orbits of the innermost planet, Mercury, and the outermost, Pluto, are the most eccentric and have the greatest orbital inclination. The spacing between planetary orbits increases as we move outward from the Sun. Density is a convenient measure of the compactness of any object. The average density of a planet is obtained by dividing the planet's total mass by its volume."

The time it takes for a signal moving at the speed of light between Earth and Mars is constantly changing. This is because the two planets are both in orbit around the sun, but at different distances, and with different orbital periods. Mars takes almost twice as long as the Earth to make a complete orbit around the sun (a Mars year is about 687 Earth days). So, at some times, the Earth and Mars are on the same side of the sun. To find the distance at that time, and ignoring the slightly elliptical shape of the orbits, we subtract Earth’s distance of 93 million miles from Mars’ distance of 141 million miles, giving a separation of 48 million miles. At the speed of light (about 186,000 miles per second), a signal would take 258 seconds."

The Sun-centered solar system idea was deduced thousands of years ago by the Greek philosopher Aristarchus of Samos. It wasn't proved until Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus proposed his Sun-centered theories in the 1500s, and showed how planets could orbit the Sun. Earth orbits the Sun in a slightly flattened circle called an \"\"ellipse.\"\" In geometry, the ellipse is a curve that loops around two points called \"\"foci\"\". The distance from the center to the longest ends of the ellipse is called the \"\"semi-major axis\"\", while the distance to the flattened \"\"sides\"\" of the ellipse is called the \"\"semi-minor axis.\"\" The Sun is at one focus of each planet's ellipse, which means that the distance between the Sun and each planet varies throughout the year."

Using the old saying, “My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas,” it can be remembered that the order of the planets goes like this: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto (if you consider it to be a planet). Accordingly, it would seem as though either Venus or Mars would be the closes planet to Earth. But which is it? Asking which planet is the closest to Earth is actually something of a trick question – the closest planet to Earth can change depending on the day, month, or even year. Rather than stating a time frame to describe when a given planet will be closest to our own planet, it is actually most accurate to describe a position that would indicate which planet is closes to ours. Since every planet has its own orbit around the Sun, and every orbit is a different length, all planets have different periods that would signify a year (or a complete orbit of the Sun). When Venus is in the middle of the Sun and Earth, it is at its closest point to Earth. During this period, Venus would be the closest planet to Earth."

( The distance they cover would be the same at the equator or not, the way the question is worded it's looking for the total distance the bills would cover as opposed to how many equatorial revolutions they would make... if you reread the wording of the question closely.) Correct answer = 94,636.97 miles Cheers again!Mr. Know-it-all · 1 decade ago1 0 Comment Billion Dollar Bills Source (s):https://shorte.im/a0Fkcsuggitt · 1 year ago0 0 Comment The circumference of the earth at the equator is 24,901.55 miles... there are 5280 feet in one mile... 12 inches in a foot. The equator is 1,577,762,208 inches long. Divide that by 6 inches... because a dollar bill is 6 inches long. Therefore it would take 262,960,368 dollar bills to stretch around the earth!"

S. government on Monday found itself with fewer tools to investigate terrorism -- at least temporarily -- after the Senate let provisions of the Patriot Act expire Sunday night. While officials warned of national security risks, it is clear that the lapse will not come close to debilitating counterterrorism efforts. The Senate entered a debate period late Sunday on the Patriot Act that pushed beyond the midnight deadline, effectively ending three provisions of that law, including the National Security Agency's bulk data collection program. The lapse was a huge victory for privacy hawks who have called for changes to that program and others under the Patriot Act since Edward Snowden first blew the lid off the NSA's domestic surveillance programs in 2013."

Losses stemming from the destruction of the World Trade Center and other buildings by terrorists on September 11, 2001, totaled about $31.6 billion, including commercial liability and group life insurance claims—not adjusted for inflation—or $42.9 billion in 2016 dollars. About two thirds of these losses were paid for by reinsurers, companies that provide insurance for insurers. Concerned about the limited availability of terrorism coverage in high-risk areas and its impact on the economy, Congress passed the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (TRIA). The Act provides a temporary program that, in the event of major terrorist attack, allows the insurance industry and federal government to share losses according to a specific formula. TRIA was signed into law on November 26, 2002, and renewed again for two years in December 2005. Passage of TRIA enabled a market for terrorism insurance to begin to develop because the federal backstop effectively limits insurers’ losses, greatly simplifying the underwriting process. TRIA was extended for another seven years to 2014 in December 2007 and renewed again for six years in January 2015. The new law is known as the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (TRIPRA) of 2015.

Unused dollar coins have been quietly piling up in Federal Reserve vaults in breathtaking numbers, thanks to a government program that has required their production since 2007.

When faced with a serious medical emergency, especially one that’s life-threatening, you should always call 911, get in an ambulance, and head to the ER. But for many in the United States, this protocol is often repeated in cases of non-medical emergencies. This practice can be problematic – with ambulance and ER costs reaching exorbitant levels. The next time you need to visit a hospital for an “emergency,” it’s worth asking the question: do you really need an ambulance? Ambulance Costs Vary by Location So, how much are ambulance costs exactly? Well, like the entire US Healthcare system, it’s complicated. The reason for its complexity is that Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in the United States are run locally.

With Health Insurance: $15-$100 Copay Without Health Insurance: $0-$1,200+E-mail Post Tweet Comments (83)Typical costs: Ambulance service typically is covered by health insurance when medically necessary. For example, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama [ 1] offers coverage for medically necessary ambulance transport, to the nearest facility that can treat the patient, on many policies. For patients with health insurance, out-of-pocket costs for ambulance service typically consist of a copay of $15 to $100 or more or coinsurance of 10% to 50%. Some ambulance service providers will \"\"balance bill\"\" -- bill the patient for the remainder of the bill above what the insurance company pays, if they don't have a contract with that insurance company; some states have outlawed this practice. According to Woodburn Ambulance Service in Woodburn, OR, their patients with commercial insurance pay an average of $432 out of pocket. For patients without health insurance, ambulance service cost typically depends on location, whether the trip is for an emergency or scheduled transport, how many miles the patient travels and whether basic life support or advanced life support is needed. The cost can be nothing out-of-pocket in cities where services are covered by taxes, but usually ranges from less than $400 to $1,200 or more plus mileage. For example, in Lima, OH, taxes pay for any ambulance services not covered by insurance, so residents do not receive a bill. The city of Le Mars, IA, charges $375 for non-emergency basic life support service up to $600 for emergency service with advanced life support."

Insanely, outlandishly expensive. We spend $2.8 trillion on health care annually. That works out to about one-sixth of the total economy and more than $8,500 per person — and way more than any other country. If the health-care system were to break off from the United States and become its own economy, it would be the fifth-largest in the world. \"\" It would be bigger than the United Kingdom or France and only behind the United States, China, Japan, and Germany,\"\" says David Blumenthal, executive director of the nonprofit Commonwealth Fund. Or here's another way to put it in its (ridiculous) perspective: The US, which has a mostly private health-care system, manages to spend more on its public health-care system than countries where the health-care system is almost entirely public. America's government spends more, as a percentage of the economy, on public health care than Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan, or Australia. It spends even more than that on private health care. The reason we spend so much money isn't because we go to the doctor a ton."

They have been telling Americans for years that government is an incompetent institution that has achieved little of real value in society. As one conservative critic put it: “The more important question is not why government is so big … but why with few exceptions, it fails in even its simplest tasks.” 1 Another critic, Charles Murray, puts it even more bluntly: “The reality of daily life is that, by and large, the things the government does tend to be ugly, rude, slovenly – and not to work.” 2 Or consider the bold challenge uttered by Rush Limbaugh on one of his radio shows: “With the exception of the military, I defy you to name one government program that has worked and alleviated the problem it was created to solve. Hhhmmmmmmm?"

Most of us take the practical approach when confronted by something we know nothing about: we press gang a friend who can help!This is all well and good, but if you can’t find a victim then your options rapidly reduce to having to pay someone to do it. While this is not a bad thing in itself - after all, some things are best left to the experts (wheel alignment leaps to mind) - the problem is that any wiring job, especially one like custom wiring a car from scratch takes a fair bit of time, particularly if you want a neat and tidy job. Unfortunately this will cost a lot of money, assuming you can find an auto electrician who is willing and capable of tackling the job... Wiring a car yourself is one of those jobs that looks impossible at first glance, however, further examination will reveal that in reality it is NOT beyond the average enthusiast. The key is to think about what you are doing, plan thoroughly and take your time. Physical wiring is merely a case of stripping wires and soldering terminals on, which takes a lot less skill than welding, panel beating or painting!I have completely wired three cars now, including my own car twice (due to a total rebuild and upgrade). The last thing I am is an electrical engineer, so if I can do it there is honestly no reason why you can’t. The three jobs I have done from scratch have all included EFI engines and I am about to embark on another complete car with EFI. With the acquisition of a few specialised but relatively inexpensive tools you can wire your car as good as if not better than any professional, and save yourself money while you are at it. I have read a number of articles over the years in magazines on how to do car wiring but they have always struck me as being somewhat superficial."

"text": "Diagnosis of overheating in a V8 Petrol Land Rover So you say your Land Rover overheats? In this article we’re going to cover the steps to diagnose a variety of overheating problems. Some are trivial, and others will require a complete engine overhaul. Overheating is a problem whose repair cost can range from zero to what seems like infinity. Land Rover V8 engines are mostly aluminum with some steel and iron components. Aluminum engines are very susceptible to damage from overheating. Before we begin I need to warn you — if you haven’t been warned already — not to ever drive a Land Rover with the temp gauge in the red, not even a short distance. Driving an overheated Rover half a mile down the highway could cost you an engine. Let’s begin our diagnosis by opening the hood and having a look. If the truck is steaming hot, leave it and return when it’s cooled off."

There are a number of reasons that a hydraulic hose can fail. Often it can be something like an ill-fitting component, incorrect assembly or installation or a combination of all three. However, whatever the cause, quite often all failures can be avoided by implementing proper procedures. Let’s explore the most common causes of hydraulic hose failure: Issue #1. The component has been blown off Reason: This is due to the hose not being put deep enough into the fitting. The purpose of the grips in the shell is to hold the fitting tightly onto the hydraulic hose. It’s quite often that last grip that makes all the difference for a strong hold. Solution: Check the manual to determine if there is a recommended insertion value for the hose, if so, mark the hose appropriately. Insert the hose – you might want to use an insertion-depth gage."

Hoax proponents say the entire mission was filmed on sets like this training mock-up. Apollo Moon Landing hoax conspiracy theories are claims that some or all elements of the Apollo Moon landings were faked by NASA and possibly members of other involved organizations. Some groups and individuals have advanced various theories which tend, to varying degrees, to include the following common elements: • •The Apollo astronauts did not land on the Moon; NASA and possibly others intentionally deceived the public into believing the landing (s) did occur by manufacturing, destroying, or tampering with evidence, including photos, telemetry tapes, transmissions, and rock samples; NASA and possibly others continue to actively participate in the conspiracy to this day.•Many commentators have published detailed rebuttals to the hoax claims. A 1999 poll by the The Gallup Organization found that 89 percent of the US public believed the landing was genuine, while 6 percent did not and 5 percent were undecided.

Folklorist Linda Degh pointed out that the 1978 film Capricorn One (which depicts a hoaxed journey to Mars in spacecraft that look identical to the Apollo craft) may have given a \"\"boost\"\" to the hoax theory's popularity in the post-Vietnam War, post-Watergate era when segments of the American public were disinclined to trust official accounts. Degh writes that \"\"The mass media catapult these half-truths into a kind of twilight zone where people can make their guesses sound as truths. Mass media have a terrible impact on people who lack guidance.\"\" [ 3] In his book A Man on the Moon, published in 1994, Andrew Chaikin mentions that at the time of Apollo 8's lunar-orbit mission in December 1968 similar ideas were already in circulation."

This program showed alleged evidence that NASA faked the moon landings. This hoax theory has been around for several years, but this is the first time it has been presented to such a wide audience. Since this Website, Rocket and Space Technology, is dedicated to the men and women who brought the moon landings to fruition, I feel the time is right for me to speak out on this topic. This TV program capitalizes on America's fixation with government conspiracies by sensationalizing the notion that NASA perpetrated a multi-billion dollar hoax on the world. In my opinion, the FOX network acted irresponsibly by airing this program. What they produced is a TV show filled with sloppy research, scientific inaccuracies and erroneous conclusions. To support such an absurd theory and to cast doubt in the minds of the American public is an insult to the courage of the astronauts and the brilliance of the engineers who worked to achieve mankind's greatest technological feat. FOX is apparently only concerned with ratings while exhibiting total disregard for the integrity of America's true heroes."

In English, Mars carries a name of the Roman god of war, and is often referred to as the \"\" Red Planet \"\" [14] [15] because the reddish iron oxide prevalent on its surface gives it a reddish appearance that is distinctive among the astronomical bodies visible to the naked eye. [ 16] Mars is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface features reminiscent both of the impact craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of Earth. The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Mars are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons. Mars is the site of Olympus Mons, the largest volcano and second-highest known mountain in the Solar System, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in the Solar System. The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 40% of the planet and may be a giant impact feature. ["

Isn't there a time lapse in the radio waves sent between the Moon and Earth? - question from Pedro Lima Radio waves, like all forms of electromagnetic waves, travel at the speed of light. Unlike the speed of sound that changes depending on the substance through which the sound wave travels, the speed of light is a constant. The speed of light has been measured to be about 9.836 x 10 8 ft/s ( 2.998 x 10 8 m/s) or 186,200 miles per second. Speed is defined as a change in distance over time. Given a known distance, we can rearrange this relationship to solve for the time it takes to travel that distance at a certain speed. The average distance between the Earth and Moon is about 239,000 miles (384,600 km). Plugging this value and the speed of light into the above equation allows us to solve for the time it takes for radio waves to travel between the Moon and Earth, as shown below. In other words, it takes only about one and a quarter seconds for radio signals to travel between astronauts on the Moon and ground controllers on Earth."

ABS (anti lock brake system) allows the driver to maintain better control of the car under hard braking Anti-lock braking systems (ABS) have been with us for longer than you might think. Developed in 1929 for use on aircraft, motorists first experienced the benefits of ABS in the Jensen Ferguson Formula, a four-wheel-drive car unveiled in 1966. Further development was slow and most motorists had to wait until the mid-1980s to benefit from ABS, most notably when an anti lock brake system was fitted as standard to the Ford Scorpio. ABS is now fitted to just about every new car and is used to help stability while cornering and as a crude aid to traction too as engineers start to think laterally about its benefits in situations other than braking.

The brake light switch, also known as the stop light switch or brake/stop lamp switch, activates the red brake lights on your rear tail lights when you press the brake pedal. Brake lights are an important safety feature of any car or truck as they allow you to inform other drivers around you that you intend to back up or that you are slowing down. This helps to eliminate potential accidents and mishaps. The switch is found underneath the dashboard, above the brake pedal. When you depress the brake pedal, the lever arm that the pedal is attached to pushes a plunger inside the brake light switch that completes an electrical circuit. That causes the brake lights to go on at the rear of your vehicle. If you follow the brake pedal bracket up towards the dash, you should be able to see the switch. Some newer cars use a brake pedal position sensor instead of the on/off style brake light switch. This works more like the accelerator pedal position sensor and has multiple position settings."

NASA: Proof of alien life closer Mysterious images of blue sunset on Mars Story highlights The discovery suggests there are more habitable places on Mars than once thought, a researcher says NASA researchers confirm flowing water on the Martian surface Such water could also be a boon to future human explorers (CNN) Potentially life-giving water still flows across the ancient surface of Mars from time to time, NASA scientists said Monday in revealing a potential breakthrough in both the search for life beyond Earth and human hopes to one day travel there. While the discovery doesn't by itself offer evidence of life on Mars, either past or present, it does boost hopes that the harsh landscape still offers some refuge for microbes to cling to existence. \"\" The existence of liquid water, even if it is super salty briny water, gives the possibility that if there's life on Mars, that we have a way to describe how it might survive,\"\" said John Grunsfeld, associate administrator for the Science Mission Directorate at NASA. NASA says it found proof of water in dark streaks like these, called recurring slope lineae, on the walls of the Garni Crater on Mars. NASA researchers using an imager aboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter confirmed the watery flows by looking at light waves returned from seasonal dark streaks on the surface, long suspected to be associated with liquid water. The investigation showed the streaks absorb light at specific wavelengths associated with chemicals known to pull water from the Martian atmosphere in a process known as deliquescence, said Georgia Tech doctoral student Lujendra Ojha, who first discovered the streaks while still an undergraduate student at the University of Arizona in 2011."

We’ve updated it and added this cool new video!Sending spacecraft to Mars is all about precision. It’s about blasting off from Earth with a controlled explosion, launching a robot into space in the direction of the Red Planet, navigating the intervening distance between our two planets, and landing with incredible precision. This intricate and complicated maneuver means knowing the exact distance from Earth to Mars. Since Mars and Earth both orbit the Sun – but at different distance, with different eccentricities, and with different orbital velocities – the distance between then is constantly changing The first person to ever calculate the distance to Mars was the astronomer Giovanni Cassini, famous for his observations of Saturn. Giovanni made observations of Mars in 1672 from Paris, while his colleague, Jean Richer made the same observation from Cayenne, French Guiana."

[ 1] Sketched on the street usually in chalk, a skully or skelly board allows a game for two to six players. A sidewalk is sometimes used, offering greater protection from vehicular traffic; however, the asphalt on a typical city street is smoother and provides better game play than a bumpy concrete sidewalk. Game time varies, but a match of two to three players is usually completed in 20 minutes. Local variations in rules are common and make it difficult to document the game. Rule variations are agreed upon by players before starting a game, especially when players from different neighborhoods play against each other.

The 1997 mission included the first successful rover on Mars, called Sojourner, which was delivered to the surface by the Pathfinder lander. One of the mission's innovations was Pathfinder's landing system. Rather than using conventional rockets to touch down on the surface, NASA decided to use a cocoon of airbags instead. After going through the higher parts of the atmosphere, Pathfinder deployed a parachute and also shed the heat shield that protected the spacecraft from the heat that built up on the spacecraft during re-entry. NASA's 25-pound Sojourner Mars rover covered about 330 feet (100 meters) over 83 days on the Red Planet in 1997. Credit: NASAThe landing system lowered the spacecraft from its backshell, using a tether. Then came the tricky part: airbags inflated just eight seconds before landing. Rocket engines on the backshell fired in the moments before landing to smooth the jolt when Pathfinder hit. Pathfinder then dropped to the surface from a distance of up to 100 feet (30 meters) from the ground, bouncing across the plain for several minutes before rolling safely to a stop."

"text": "\"CAIMANBy wildernessdave | Published: November 29, 2008Scientific Name: Caiman crocodilus Click To Enlarge Juvenile Caimans are yellow in color with black spots and bands on the body and tail. As they mature, they lose this yellow color and the markings become less distinct. Adults are dull olive-green. Spectacled caimans are the most common species of the crocodilian family. The Spectacled Caiman is one of the smallest crocodilians, but is the largest of the caiman family. Males generally reach 2-2.5 meters (6-7 feet long), with the largest specimens reported to approach 3 meters. But a caiman that is 9 feet long is very rare. Females are smaller, usually reaching a size of 1.5 meters, and rare individuals may reach 2 meters. Caiman is a Spanish term for \"\"alligator\"\" or any crocodilian. A spectacled Caiman’s common name derives from a bony ridge which is found near the front of the eyes appearing to connect the eyes like a pair of spectacles."

It is a carnivorous reptile that lives along slow-moving rivers, lakes, seasonally flooded savannas of the Amazon basin, and in other freshwater habitats of South America. It is a quite large species, growing to sizes of at least 5 m (16 ft) and possibly up to 6 m (20 ft) in length, which make it the second largest reptile in the Neotropical ecozone, next to the critically endangered Orinoco crocodile [2] [3] [4]. As their name implies, the black caiman has a dark coloration, as an adult. In some individuals, the dark coloration can appear almost black. However, they have grey to brown banding on the lower jaw. Juveniles have a more vibrant coloration compared to adults with prominent white to pale yellow banding on the flanks that remains present well into adulthood, at least more when compared to other species. The morphology is quite different from other caimans but the bony ridge that occurs in other caimans is present. The head is large and heavy, an advantage in catching larger prey. The black caiman is the largest predator in the Amazon ecosystem, preying on a variety of fish, reptiles, birds and mammals. [ 3] They are generalists and apex predators, potentially capable of taking any animal within its range, including other predators. ["

Closely related to other South American rodents such as Chinchillas and Guinea Pigs, the Capybara is the largest rodent in the world weighing up to 75kg and measuring nearly 1.4 meters long. Despite their enormous size though, these mammals have adapted well to life in the water and have a number of distinctive characteristics that aid their amphibious lifestyle, including the webbed skin between their toes which is particularly helpful when swimming. Interestingly enough, the common name of the Capybara is thought to mean \"\"Master of the Grasses\"\", whilst its scientific name comes from the Greek word for water hog. Capybara Anatomy and Appearance The Capybara is a heavy, stocky-looking animal with a short head and muzzle in comparison to its body and hardly any tail at all. They have short but sturdy limbs and hoof-like claws on their toes which along with the webbing, helps the Capybara both when negotiating the slippery banks and with swimming and also prevents the Capybara from sinking too deeply into the surrounding mud. Their coarse, short fur is pale to dark brown in colour with varying tinges of yellow, red and grey and is perfectly designed to dry out quickly once the Capybara is back on land. One of the Capybara's most distinctive features is the fact that their eyes, ears and nostrils are all positioned on top of its head meaning that they still have excellent sight, sound and smell whilst in the water. The placement of these features also means that when threatened, the Capybara can retreat into the water only leaving these parts of its body exposed to hide from potential predators. Capybara Distribution and Habitat The Capybara is found throughout a variety of habitats in Central and South America providing that there is a constant source of standing freshwater."

The males range between six to seven feet in length with the females reaching about five feet. One of the common names for the caiman is the spectacled caiman, resulting in the bony ridge between the eyes. Young caiman have yellow coloring with black spots and bands on both the body and tail, these disappear with age, turning a dark olive color as the crocodile ages. Caiman Crock Caiman Crock What They Eat: The juvenile caiman eat insects, mollusks and small sea and water life such as crawfish and shrimp. The larger the caiman grows; it eats more small animals, birds and fish. Adult caiman feast on animals such as wild pigs and the meat eating piranha that inhabit the streams and rivers. Cannibalism has been observed when the climatic changes force changes in their food supply. Habitat: The wetland marshy areas and waterways are the places that the caiman lives in. This provides the concealment and nourishment for them to grow and thrive."

Crocodylinae, all of whose members are considered true crocodiles, is classified as a biological subfamily. A broader sense of the term crocodile, Crocodylidae that includes Tomistoma, is not used in this article. The term crocodile here applies to only the species within the subfamily of Crocodylinae. The term is sometimes used even more loosely to include all extant members of the order Crocodilia, which includes the alligators and caimans (family Alligatoridae ), the gharial and false gharial (family Gavialidae ), and all other living and fossil Crocodylomorpha. Although they appear similar, crocodiles, alligators and the gharial belong to separate biological families. The gharial, with its narrow snout, is easier to distinguish, while morphological differences are more difficult to spot in crocodiles and alligators. The most obvious external differences are visible in the head, with crocodiles having narrower and longer heads, with a more V-shaped than a U-shaped snout compared to alligators and caimans. Another obvious trait is that the upper and lower jaws of the crocodiles are the same width, and the teeth in the lower jaw fall along the edge or outside the upper jaw when the mouth is closed; therefore, all teeth are visible, unlike an alligator, which possesses in the upper jaw small depressions into which the lower teeth fit."

"text": "\"Crocodiles, Alligators or Gharials? One of the most commonly asked questions is - \"\"What is the difference between a crocodile and an alligator? \"\" Firstly, it is worth noting that the term “crocodilians” refers to all members of the Family Crocodylidae (“true” crocodiles), Family Alligatoridae (alligators and caimans) and Family Gavialidae (gharial, Tomistoma). In contrast, the term “crocodiles” refers only to the \"\"true\"\" crocodiles. The main criteria used to distinguish members of the three crocodilian Families are associated with the head, particularly the jaws and skull. The skull and jaws of all crocodilians function identically, and are composed of the same suite of bones. But there is variation in the extent to which different bones compose certain structures. Fortunately, there are some external characteristics of the head that allow members of the three Families to be distinguished. Alligators and caimans Alligatorids tend to have broad snouts, which are often referred to as being \"\"shovel-shaped\"\". The upper jaw is so broad that when the jaws are closed many of the teeth of the lower jaw fit into sockets along the edge of the expanded upper jaw."

One predator may become another's prey, and so on- it's crazy how many animals can rise to meet survival! As a starter, we've gathered a list of some organisms living in the Amazon, how they might interact, and who eats who. There are thousands of other organisms living in the same place though, so count on these ones to be the bare minimum of what can really happen out in the wild world of the Amazon rainforest. Plants: The amazon rainforest is a home for many different types of plants, though the two most well know would have to be the Brazil Nut Tree and Orchids. The Brazil Nut Tree is one of the rainforest's prime trees in the amazon, it towers above all other trees and produces fruit the size of a baseball during January and February. The tree is dependent on a certain large rodent called the Agouti- this rodent is the only known animals capable of breaking open the hard shell of the trees fruit, thanks to their sharp chisel-like teeth. Without the Agouti to open the fruits, the tree would not be able to have its seeds spread nearly as much as they do today. As for orchids, these plants, with so many species around the world, are one of the largest and best known plants globally. Orchids can grow in many different ways; in the soil, underground, on rocks, but most grow on other plants and trees [meaning they're epiphytes.]"

I personally refuse to group caimans with alligators despite what the scientific community says (not everyone in the scientific community agrees with that lumping either) There are 23 species of crocodilian in the world... one of these is the Gavial of India, two are true alligators, six are caimans, and the rest are crocs. The alligators: American Alligator: Found in the Southeastern U. S. from Florida north to coastal North Carolina, and west to eastern Texas. Chinese Alligator: Critically endangered, found in isolated spots along the Yangtzee River in China. Two nasal discs, one for each nostril. Teeth in the lower jaw fit into sockets behind the teeth in the upper jaw, giving the appearance of a slight overbite. Teeth are conical... peglike. Inside of the mouth is almond colored.

Types of Crocodiles in the World Physical features of Crocodile Crocodiles are tropical reptiles found in freshwater habitat around the world. There is a total of 14 species present ranging from the 2 m (7 ft) long dwarf crocodiles of Western Africa to the huge man-eating 7.5 m (25 ft) long Indo-Pacific crocodiles The Indo-Pacific, American, and Nile crocodiles can live equally well in the sea as in freshwater. They live near marshes and swamps. Even lakes, estuaries, and Mangroves are accounted as their habitats. Breeding of Crocodile Loud bellowing proceeds mating under water. One month later female lay up to 90 leathery-shelled eggs that they incubate for 2-3 months in nests. Some species lay eggs in a special location in order to avoid total loss by flooding or predation."

Mock, MD on behalf of Mountain View Hospital Cardiology (Cardiovascular Disease)Heart attack means there is damage to the heart muscle, while heart failure describes a weakened heart, says James Mock, MD, a cardiologist at Mountain View Hospital. In this video he compares the two. Thomas L. Lambert, MD on behalf of Mountain View Hospital Cardiology (Cardiovascular Disease)A heart attack and heart failure are different, says Thomas Lambert, MD, a cardiologist at Mountain View Hospital. In this video, he defines heart failure as a weakened heart, while a heart attack is blockage of blood flow to the heart. Sameer A. Sayeed, MDCardiology (Cardiovascular Disease)In a heart attack, a plaque rupture in a coronary artery causes a blod clot to form in the artery and causes the artery to suddenly become blocked stopping blood flow to the area of the heart being supplied by that coronary artery. That part of the heart stops working and may die if the artery remains blocked for too long. The rest of the heart may continue beating normally or the entire heart migh fibrillate or beat abnormally ineffectively leading to death. In heart failure, if it is systiolic failure, the entire heart muscle is weak and this is usually a chronic progressive process from coronary disease or other diseases that affect the heart muscle. The heart does not pump effectively and insufficient blood is pumped to the rest of the body and one has symptoms of shortness of breath, swelling, altered mental status,etc. This is not an acute process and is not painful and does not lead to sudden death."

Symptoms are what bother the patient; they are whatever abnormalities the patient notices, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or cough. Signs are what the physician sees or observes about the patient, such as blue nailbeds, fast breathing, abnormal sounds heard with the stethoscope, or a temperature of 103 ° . Signs may also include abnormal chest xrays and other laboratory findings. We can think of symptoms as the subjective aspect of illness and signs as the objective aspect. Both are important in diagnosing and treating any illness, especially lung disease. The most common symptoms of lung disease are: Coughshortness of breath (either at rest or on exertion), also known as dyspneachest tightness or chest painhemoptysis (coughing up blood, as observed by the patient)chillsnoisy breathing (as heard by the patient)The most common signs of lung disease are:dyspnea – although as classically defined dyspnea is a symptom, physicians often say a patient looks \"\"dyspneic\"\" when there is noticeable tachypnea, hyperpnea and/or use of accessory muscles.

GAUER, MD, Womack Army Medical Center, Fort Bragg, North Carolina Am Fam Physician. 2011 Sep 15;84 (6):640-650. Related letter: Consider Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome in Patients with Syncope Syncope is a transient and abrupt loss of consciousness with complete return to preexisting neurologic function. It is classified as neurally mediated (i.e., carotid sinus hypersensitivity, situational, or vasovagal), cardiac, orthostatic, or neurogenic. Older adults are more likely to have orthostatic, carotid sinus hypersensitivity, or cardiac syncope, whereas younger adults are more likely to have vasovagal syncope. Common nonsyncopal syndromes with similar presentations include seizures, metabolic and psychogenic disorders, and acute intoxication. Patients presenting with syncope (other than neurally mediated and orthostatic syncope) are at increased risk of death from any cause. Useful clinical rules to assess the short-term risk of death and the need for immediate hospitalization include the San Francisco Syncope Rule and the Risk Stratification of Syncope in the Emergency Department rule. Guidelines suggest an algorithmic approach to the evaluation of syncope that begins with the history and physical examination."

But the unfair news is that having arthritis – osteoarthritis (OA), but especially inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (RA), gout, lupus and psoriatic arthritis – puts you at increased risk of developing heart disease. That includes heart attack, stroke, atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeats), high blood pressure, heart failure and atherosclerosis (plaque in the arteries). People with RA tend to be at highest risk. More than 50 percent of premature deaths in people with rheumatoid arthritis result from cardiovascular disease, according to a 2011 review of 24 mortality studies published in Nature Reviews Rheumatology. People with gout also have a higher risk of heart attack and death from cardiovascular and coronary heart disease. High uric acid levels – a cause gout – have been linked to a 44% increased risk of high blood pressure, according to a 2011 review published in Arthritis Care & Research. As for people with OA, a study of 8,000 people in Finland, published in the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases, found that men with OA in even a single finger joint were 42% more likely to die of cardiovascular disease than those who didn’t have OA. Women were at a 26% higher risk than those without the disease. The link may be excess weight."

It is most commonly due to occlusion (blockage) of a coronary artery following the rupture of a vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque, which is an unstable collection of lipids (fatty acids) and white blood cells (especially macrophages) in the wall of an artery. The resulting ischemia (restriction in blood supply) and oxygen shortage, if left untreated for a sufficient period of time, can cause damage or death (infarction) of heart muscle tissue (myocardium). ( From: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)Symptoms of a heart attack The most common symptom of a heart attack in both men and women is some type of pain, pressure or discomfort in the chest. But it’s not always severe or even the most prominent symptom, particularly in women. Women are more likely than men to have signs and symptoms unrelated to chest pain, such as: Neck, shoulder, upper back or abdominal discomfort Shortness of breath Nausea or vomiting Sweating Lightheadedness or dizziness Unusual fatigue These signs and symptoms are more subtle than the obvious crushing chest pain often associated with heart attacks. This may be because women tend to have blockages not only in their main arteries, but also in the smaller arteries that supply blood to the heart — a condition called small vessel heart disease. Many women tend to show up in emergency rooms after much heart damage has already occurred, because their symptoms are not those typically associated with a heart attack. Top «Heart disease risk factors for women Although the traditional risk factors for coronary artery disease — such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure and obesity — affect women and men, other factors may play a bigger role in the development of heart disease in women. For example: Metabolic syndrome — a combination of fat around your abdomen, high blood pressure, high blood sugar and high triglycerides — has a greater impact on women than on men."

However, heart failure is a serious condition where the heart does not pump blood around the body efficiently. We depend on the pumping action of the heart to deliver nutrient- and oxygen-rich blood to every cell in the body. When cells are not nourished adequately, it is not possible for the body to function properly. If the heart is weakened and cannot supply the cells with sufficient blood, the patient becomes tired and breathless. Everyday activities that were once taken for granted become challenging.

"text": "There are many medical conditions that can mimic a heart attack. Some of these are a sign of something urgent, and others are not. Remember, if you are experiencing symptoms of a heart attack, dial 911. A few possible non-heart-attack causes of chest pain are described below. Your physician can help you identify the cause of any chest pain. There are other causes of chest pain that relate to the heart as well as non-heart-related causes of chest pain. You can learn about many of the causes of chest pain here, but first it is important to learn about heart attack and conditions that mimic it. What Is a Heart Attack? A heart attack happens when a complete blockage suddenly forms in an artery that supplies blood to your heart (a coronary artery ). Blockages are caused by a disease process throughout the arteries in your body called atherosclerosis, in which plaque (a fatty substance) builds up in the arteries."

Follow 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: A bit more bad news for diabetics that you may not have known: having a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes makes your risk of having a heart attack just the same as someone who already had a heart attack. This means it is automatically assumed that with diabetes, there may be hidden heart disease as well. Blood pressure monitoring is crucial for those with diabetes. ( Photodisc)In addition, a worldwide study of over 21,000 patients with diabetes found that vigorously controlling your blood sugar to get your blood sugar levels into near normal range did not lower the risk of heart attack or heart disease. For some patients, tight control of blood sugar led to more episodes of dangerously low blood sugar too. So what is a patient with diabetes to do to lower the risk of heart attack?"

She may even appear bowlegged. Don't worry: Your baby will stretch out, little by little, and by the time she reaches 6 months, she'll be fully unfurled! In the meantime, as she adjusts to life outside the warm, safe confines of your womb, she may enjoy being wrapped snugly in a light blanket. Watch experts demonstrate how to swaddle your baby safely. Your baby is born with a number of reflexes. The Moro – or startle – reflex causes her to automatically arch her back, extend her arms and legs, and sometimes cry out when she senses a loud noise or a sudden movement. Newborns can have this reaction even during sleep, but it goes away after a few months. Other newborn reflexes include the Babinski reflex (her big toe bends back and the other toes fan out when the sole of her foot is firmly stroked), the step reflex (she appears to take steps or dance when her feet touch a solid surface), and the tongue-thrust reflex (she pushes his tongue out when something is placed on it)."

"text": "\"Behaviorism Dr. C. George Boeree Behaviorism is the philosophical position that says that psychology, to be a science, must focus its attentions on what is observable -- the environment and behavior -- rather than what is only available to the individual -- perceptions, thoughts, images, feelings.... The latter are subjective and immune to measurement, and therefore can never lead to an objective science. The first behaviorists were Russian. The very first was Ivan M. Sechenov (1829 to 1905). He was a physiologist who had studied at the University of Berlin with famous people like Müller, Du Bois-Reymond, and Helmholtz. Devoted to a rigorous blend of associationism and materialism, he concluded that all behavior is caused by stimulation. In 1863, he wrote Reflexes of the Brain . In this landmark book, he introduced the idea that there are not only excitatory processes in the central nervous system, but inhibitory ones as well. Vladimir M. Bekhterev (1857 to 1927) is another early Russian behaviorist. He graduated in 1878 from the Military Medical Academy in St. Petersburg, one year before Pavlov arrived there. He received his MD in 1881 at the tender age of 24, then went to study with the likes of Du Bois-Reymond and Wundt in Berlin, and Charcot in France."

Here are some reflexes your little one has already developed. By Holly Bennett | Jul 9, 2012Photo: i Stockphoto It’s a moment captured on countless cameras: You touch your newborn baby’s tiny palm and he grasps onto your finger with surprising strength, like he intends to never let you go. Maybe it’s a bit deflating to learn this fierce grasp is just a reflex, but it’s fascinating, too: Your baby is born with as many as 75 reflexes. Some baby reflexes disappear abruptly, usually between three and six months of age, while others are gradually replaced by more intentional behaviour.

This rooting reflex helps her find and latch onto a nipple.

February 1, 2013 4:50 PM Subscribe From Googling it seems to be unknown as to whether or not cockroaches are exhibiting fear when confronted or some more basic instinct. Even if it's not 100% known, is there strong evidence either way? I feel tremendous guilt after killing bugs. The idea that something could be afraid of me and then I kill it (justifying its fear) weighs heavily on me every time. I try to be as humane in my bug-proofing as I can but sometimes it's me or the roach (I am also pretty scared of them and find trying to catch one in a cup or something petrifying). What I'm trying to figure out is if, when they freeze and seem to be staring at me, they are feeling something like what I am feeling: terror.posted by Danila to Pets & Animals (18 answers total) 1 user marked this as a favorite You'd better define 'fear' first. Some degree of predator avoidance or avoidance is pretty basic behavior in most living things that have mobility; it's what has kept their ancestors around long enough to procreate. That doesn't mean, however, that their buggy lives are flashing before their eyes, causing them to suddenly realize with a profound feeling of dread the finite nature of their own existence. I suspect that 'terror' is sufficiently complex as to require at least a spinal cord (excepting octopi, of course)."

It doesn’t matter if you’re rich, poor, young, elderly, sick, healthy, or unique. Everyone in the world holds an inherent set of instinctive behaviors. Some of the behaviors include a collection of reflexes. Scientists continue to examine the purpose of these instincts and develop hypotheses on their function. Many of the instincts remain an evolutionary mystery. For this article I have focused on reflexes in adults and left out the common primitive reflexes. A primitive reflex is displayed by normal human infants and not neurologically intact adults. Some examples include the Palmar grasp reflex, which is the tendency for babies to close their hand around anything that strokes the palm. The swimming reflex occurs if you place a small infant in water."

S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class James R. Evans, via Wikimedia Commons“I dare them to find the i Pod on me,” Richie Sais told the New York Times in 2007, when he was preparing to run the Marine Corps Marathon. USA Track & Field, the national governing body for distance racing, had just decided to ban athletes from using portable music players in order \"\"to ensure safety and to prevent runners from having a competitive edge.\"\" Rais resolved to hide his i Pod shuffle under his shirt. Many fellow runners protested the new rule, which remains in effect today in an amended form: It now applies only to people vying for awards and money. For some athletes and for many people who run, jog, cycle, lift weights and otherwise exercise, music is not superfluous—it is essential to peak performance and a satisfying workout. Although some people prefer audio books, podcasts or ambient sounds, many others depend on bumpin' beats and stirring lyrics to keep themselves motivated when exercising. A quick Twitter search uncovers plenty of evidence: \"\"Trying to let my phone charge a little more before I go, because lord knows I can't even try and workout without music,\"\" tweeted @Gianna_H21. \"\" I just made my mom turn around to get my headphones. I can't possibly work out without music,\"\" @Codavoci_Kyle admitted. In the last 10 years the body of research on workout music has swelled considerably, helping psychologists refine their ideas about why exercise and music are such an effective pairing for so many people as well as how music changes the body and mind during physical exertion."

"title": "https://www.britannica.com/topic/instinct\nInstinct",
"text": "Instinct, an inborn impulse or motivation to action typically performed in response to specific external stimuli. Today instinct is generally described as a stereotyped, apparently unlearned, genetically determined behaviour pattern. Foraging is an example of an instinct driven by impulses serving specific biological functions. Scott Bauer—ARS/USDADefining instinct In the past the term instinct has stood for a number of distinct conceptions about animal behaviour. For example, Alexander Jamieson, in the first volume of his A Dictionary of Mechanical Science, Arts, Manufactures, and Miscellaneous Knowledge (1829), defined the term instinct as “an appellation given to the sagacity and natural inclinations of brutes, which supplies the place of reason in mankind. ”As a rough rendering of what the term instinct means to most people, this definition still has merit. If it is taken to include the possibility that humans too can be governed by instinct, this definition is broad and vague, encompassing the variety of senses that the term has since been used to convey. However, this inclusiveness is unable to distinguish the subtle differences of meaning encompassed by the terms instinct and instinctive. The words instinct and instinctive have borne a variety of meanings in the many different contexts in which they have been used. Their varied meanings and connotations are encountered in everyday language."

Is the way that we behave something we are born with, or is in instead something that develops as we age and due to the experiences we have? What evidence supports the basis of motivation? Instinct Theory of Motivation: Definition According to the instinct theory of motivation, all organisms are born with innate biological tendencies that help them survive. This theory suggests that instincts drive all behaviors. So what exactly is an instinct? Instincts are goal-directed and innate patterns of behavior that are not the result of learning or experience. For example, infants have an inborn rooting reflex that helps them seek out a nipple and obtain nourishment, while birds have an innate need to build a nest or migrate during the winter."

Create a free account Maybe later Sort Reflexes are a motor or neural reaction to a specific stimulus in the environment. They tend to be simpler than instincts,involve the activity of specific body parts and systems (e.g., the knee-jerk reflex and the contraction of the pupil in bright light), and involve more primitive centers of the central nervous system (e.g., the spinal cord and the medulla)In contrast, instincts are innate behaviors that are triggered by a broader range of events, such as aging and the change of seasons. They are more complex patterns of behavior,involve movement of the organismas a whole (e.g., sexual activity and migration), and involve higher brain centers. But unlike instincts and reflexes, learned behaviors involve change and experience: learning is a relatively permanent change in behavior or knowledge that results from experience. In contrast to the innate behaviors discussed above, learning involves acquiring knowledge and skills through experience. Looking back at our surfing scenario, Julian will have to spend much more time training with his surfboard before he learns how to ride the waves like his father. Associative learning occurs when an organism makes connections between stimuli or events that occur together in the environment. You will see that associative learning is central to all three basic learning processes discussed in this chapter; classical conditioning tends to involve unconscious processes, operant conditioning tends to involve conscious processes, and observational learning adds social and cognitive layers to all the basic associative processes, both conscious and unconscious."

The First Month Age 1-3 Months Age 4-7 Months Age 8-12 Months On to Toddlerhood When to Seek Medical Care For More Information on Infant Milestones What Are Infant Milestones? Babies grow at an amazingly rapid rate during their first year of life. In addition to babies' physical growth in height and weight, babies also go through major achievement stages, referred to as developmental milestones. Developmental milestones are easily identifiable skills that the baby can perform, such as rolling over, sitting up, and walking. These milestones are usually classified into three categories:motor development,language development, andsocial/emotional development. Babies tend to follow the same progression through these milestones; however, no two babies go through these milestones at exactly the same time. There is a range of time when a specific developmental milestone will be accomplished (for example, babies learn to walk independently between 9-16 months of age). Babies also spend different amounts of time at each stage before moving on to the next stage. Contact a health-care professional with any concerns about a baby's development."

"text": "Archaea and bacteria are both single-celled microorganisms known as prokaryotes but this is one of the few things they have in common. Even though they both look vaguely similar when viewed through a microscope, each represents a completely different group of creatures. In fact, archaea differ from bacteria as much as humans do, in terms of their biochemistry and genetic structure. Archaea and bacteria have different cell membranes and cell structures, and archaea are found in extreme environments where most bacteria could not survive. Bacteria cell walls contain a substance known as peptidoglycan, while the cell walls of archaea do not. Archaea and bacteria also differ because the cell membranes of archaea have a unique structure and do not contain the same lipids, or fats, that are found in the cell membranes of other organisms. Archaeal membranes contain a substance known as isoprene, which forms heat-resistant structures and is not present in bacterial cell membranes. Inside archaea, protein-synthesizing molecules called ribosomes are different from those found in bacteria, and are closer to the ribosomes present in eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells are found in humans, animals, plants, fungi and protozoa. The enzyme RNA polymerase, which enables RNA manufacture in cells, has a simple form in bacteria."

Which group is the most “primitive”? Which groups are sister? The answer to these questions would help to delineate the characters of the last common ancestor to all living beings, as a first step to reconstruct the earliest periods of biological evolution on Earth. The current “Procaryotic dogma” claims that procaryotes are primitive. Since the ancestor of Archaea was most probably a hyperthermophile, and since bacteria too might have originated from hyperthermophiles, the procaryotic dogma has been recently connected to the hot origin of life hypothesis. However, the notion that present-day hyperthermophiles are primitive has been challenged by recent findings, in these unique microorganisms, of very elaborate adaptative devices for life at high temperature. Accordingly, I discuss here alternative hypotheses that challenge the procaryotic dogma, such as the idea of a universal ancestor with molecular features in between those of eucaryotes and procaryotes, or the origin of procaryotes via thermophilic adaptation. Clearly, major evolutionary questions about early cellular evolution on Earth remain to be settled before we can speculate with confidence about which kinds of life might have appeared on other planets.

They are single-celled organisms with no true nuclear membrane (prokaryotic organisms). The taxon Monera was first proposed as a phylum by Ernst Haeckel in 1866. Subsequently, the phylum was elevated to the rank of kingdom in 1925 by Édouard Chatton. The last commonly accepted mega-classification with the taxon Monera was the five-kingdom classification system established by Robert Whittaker in 1969. Under the three-domain system of taxonomy, introduced by Carl Woese in 1977, which reflects the evolutionary history of life, the organisms found in kingdom Monera have been divided into two domains, Archaea and Bacteria (with Eukarya as the third domain). Furthermore, the taxon Monera is paraphyletic (does not include all descendants of their most-recent common ancestor), as Archaea and Eukarya are currently believed to be more closely related than either is to Bacteria. The term \"\"moneran\"\" is the informal name of members of this group and is still sometimes used (as is the term \"\"prokaryote\"\") to denote a member of either domain. ["

The composition of cell walls varies widely among these kingdoms and the species within them, but the central functions are similar for most organisms. Cell walls provide rigidity and protection. For multicellular organisms, the cell wall also binds different cells together. Plants use their cell wall as part of their system for maintaining their shape and stiffness. The plant concentrates ions and other substances within the cell, which pulls in water by osmosis . The cell swells, pressing tightly against the cell wall. The swelling increases rigidity, or turgor , while the wall keeps the cell from bursting.

"text": "September 2002Note: Because some of the information in this article may be outdated, it has been archived.1. Introducing LUCALUCA is short for Last Universal Common Ancestor, and it is from this organism that every living cell on the planet has descended. LUCA does not represent the earliest stage in the evolution of life — it is widely accepted that before the evolution of proteins and DNA (which are common to all cellular life) there was a period where RNA carried out the roles now performed by proteins and DNA [Jeffares & Poole 2000]. There are a lot of uncertainties when we go this far back in evolutionary time and perhaps all we can be certain of is that, at a point in Earth’s history (probably over 3 billion years ago), cells emerged which stored recipes for making both proteins and RNA on a third molecule, DNA. Nevertheless, studying LUCA is not science fiction. In the same way as humans and chimpanzees shared a common history until less than 10 million years ago, all modern lifeforms shared a common history back as far as the split that gave rise to the three ‘domains’ of life we now know of as archaea, bacteria and eukaryotes; that is, back as far as LUCA. That there are three domains was first established by Carl Woese and colleagues, who found that the group called prokaryotes was actually two groups, the archaea and bacteria [Woese & Fox 1977; Woese et al. 1990]. Amazingly, this work has largely stood the test of time, and though it is argued that there has been extensive gene swapping between these two groups [Pennisi 1998, 1999; Doolittle 1999; Eisen 2000], recent analyses using complete genomes supports Woese and colleagues’ decision to split prokaryotes into archaea and bacteria [Snel et al. 1999; Sicheritz-Pontén & Andersson 2001; Brown et al. 2001]. Woese and colleagues’ discovery rested on an even more astounding one — all life stores its genetic information on DNA, using a common code which we call the genetic code. The information is stored as packets, called genes — recipes for making RNA, and proteins [see Appendix A: Making Protein ]."

So, while biology has all of those levels of organization, we focus in this course mostly upon the individual organism. The big idea for today is to understand that when we look at the organisms, we also find that this single layer itself has many layers in another dimension. Rather than levels of organization, the organisms show incredible diversity that we distinguish in a process often called classification. There are many ways that the organisms might be classified. Humans have traditionally grouped organisms into some major groupings and then subgroupings within each group. Humans love hierarchy, and so we naturally understand how to organize a complex mixture of organisms into groupings. This classification process could have placed the organisms into categories of usefulness...for example: those that provide food, those that provide fuel, those that provide clothing, those that perform work, those that provide pleasure, etc. But of course plants and mammals can supply food, and they can provide clothing. So this kind of classification would be defective in that it would put dissimilar organisms into the same groups...and similar organisms into different groups."

The encoded r RNAs differ in size, being distinguished as either large or small. Each ribosome contains at least one large r RNA and at least one small r RNA. In the nucleolus, the large and small r RNAs combine with ribosomal proteins to form the large and small subunits of the ribosome (e.g., 50S and 30S, respectively, in bacteria). ( These subunits generally are named according to their rate of sedimentation, measured in Svedberg units [S], in a centrifugal field.)

Tomkins on March 18, 2015PDF Download Share: Abstract In the grand schema of evolution, a mythical prokaryote to eukaryote cellular transition allegedly gave rise to the diversity of eukaryotic life (eukaryogenesis). One of the key problems with this idea is the fact that the prokaryotic world itself is divided into two apparent domains (bacteria and archaea) and eukarya share similarities to both domains of prokaryotes while also exhibiting many major innovative features found in neither. In this article, we briefly review the current landscape of the controversy and show how the key molecular features surrounding DNA replication, transcription, and translation are fundamentally distinct in eukarya despite superficial similarities to prokaryotes, particularly archaea. These selected discontinuous molecular chasms highlight the impossibility for eukarya having evolved from archaea. In a separate paper, we will address alleged similarities between eukarya and bacteria. Shop Now Keywords: First eukaryotic common ancestor, FECA, Last eukaryotic common ancestor, LECA, Eukaryogenesis, bacteria, archaea, eukaryote, DNA replication, transcription, translation, molecular evolution Disclaimer: Regarding author C. Tan, the opinions expressed in this article are the author’s own and not necessarily those of the University of Missouri. Introduction Eukarya are organisms with cells much larger than prokaryotes that possess nuclei and other membrane enclosed intracellular organelles. Thus, many of their processes are highly compartmentalized and more complicated than those of the most complex prokaryotes. In fact, a typical eukaryotic cell is about a thousand times larger in volume than a typical bacterial or archaeal cell and a fundamental eukaryote-prokaryote dichotomy clearly exists in regards to intracellular organization, complexity, and innovation. Besides, eukarya themselves are highly diverse and comprise three kingdoms of multicellular life that include plants, animals, and fungi."

"text": "Welcome to SAN DIEGO, CA 9215492154 is an upscale rural zip code in San Diego, California. The population is racially diverse, and mostly married couples. At $319,300 the average home value here is a bit higher than average for the San Diego-Carlsbad-San Marcos metro area, so this probably isn't the place to look for housing bargains. The average family income here is $52,482/year. This is less than the national average of $70,000/year. However, the national average number is a little misleading because there are some very wealthy Americans earning $50 million a year or more. ( Wouldn't that be nice!) This pushes the national average higher than in would be without those edge cases. The median household income in the US (median, meaning half of US households make more and half make less) is at about $50,000/year. Median family income in 92154 is $44,236."

"text": "\"Rocker Arm Ratio - Power Multipliers Rocker Arm Ratios Can Add Power Mike Petralia Feb 1, 2002 Share2/8The debate over the optimum rocker arm ratio has dragged on since the invention of the pushrod V-8. Even though Chevrolet made the decision easy for us when it engineered the small-block to run around a 1.5:1 ratio, (Comp Cams says most stock rockers are actually about 1.46:1), it's well known that the inconsistencies of stock rockers and the friction and heat they create mean there's power lost with them. By simply equalizing all rocker arms to a consistent 1.52:1 ratio we've found there's much power to be gained. And by increasing, or more precisely optimizing, rocker ratios to alter the opening and closing events of the cam you can build even more power. SUPER CHEVY wanted to find out what the best ratio really is, but didn't have time to debate the issue. So we thought we'd just test it instead. Rocker Decisions There's actually much more to determining which rocker arms are best for your engine besides just finding the right ratio. Stock rockers flex and make heat, but there are roller rockers made out of chrome-moly and stainless steel, as well as the familiar aluminum versions engineered to cure those problems, and then there's shaft rockers to consider, too. There are also some trick new rockers available with unique designs, like Crane Cams' ingenious variable-ratio Radi-Arc rocker arms, and Crower Cams has been working on rocker arms that fix many of the problems associated with increasing the ratio and/or lengthening your valves. There's even a trick, new electronically controlled, variable-ratio shaft rocker conversion kit called Hot Rockers for street small-blocks that we'll tell you more about in a bit."

By Billy Ray Hughes Magistrate 3rd District Madison County Sep 20, 2011Billy Ray Hughes Have you ever turned over a big flat rock and were grossed out by the creepy crawly things you saw? That is kind of how I feel when I look at special taxing districts. Special taxing districts are probably one of the least known forms of government, yet they have become one of the most prevalent forms of government in the state. So, what could be so interesting about taxing districts, you ask? Hang with me. Let us start with a layman’s definition. Taxing districts are, generally, independent single-purpose units of government established for performing prescribed functions within limited boundaries. The Madison County School District, by far the county’s largest taxing district, is beyond the scope of this column. We have several other taxing districts in Madison County, however."

S. Department of Education (ED) to clarify the requirements of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (Section 504) in the area of public elementary and secondary education. The primary purpose of these revisions is to incorporate information about the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act of 2008 (Amendments Act), effective January 1, 2009, which amended the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) and included a conforming amendment to the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 that affects the meaning of disability in Section 504. The Amendments Act broadens the interpretation of disability. The Amendments Act does not require ED to amend its Section 504 regulations. ED’s Section 504 regulations as currently written are valid and OCR is enforcing them consistent with the Amendments Act. In addition, OCR is currently evaluating the impact of the Amendments Act on OCR’s enforcement responsibilities under Section 504 and Title II of the ADA, including whether any changes in regulations, guidance, or other publications are appropriate. The revisions to this Frequently Asked Questions document do not address the effects, if any, on Section 504 and Title II of the amendments to the regulations implementing the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) that were published in the Federal Register at 73 Fed.

SENTE\"\"The partnership that we formed with the village of Gurnee to assist the park district in funding the six million dollars of debt to build the pool allowed us to structure the third referendum without any tax increase. \"\" �Chuck Balling, executive director of the Gurnee Park District I f you study the referenda results following each election, you'll find an interesting statistic: park agencies or other local governmental entities that continue to try to pass a referenda campaign eventually do get it passed. In fact, a majority of the referenda attempts eventually pass within three attempts. This does not mean that you can keep asking the same question three times in a row without making any changes in your strategy or what you're asking for. It does mean that after an unsuccessful referendum, agencies need to stay positive and evaluate. Oftentimes park district directors are interviewed the day after the referenda. By offering a positive statement that the park district will continue to provide patrons with quality services and that the district intends to listen to what the community is trying to tell them, goes a long way in paving the way for success the second time around. Chuck Balling, executive director of the Gurnee Park District, encourages this \"\"stay-positive focus. \"\" Balling says: \"\"Don't burn your bridges, because often it may take a couple of times before you can pass a referendum. \"\" The Gurnee Park District had a question on the ballot in the November 2000 election asking the community for the third time to approve a new $6 million outdoor aquatic center."

I moved to Houston from San Diego, CA in 7th grade and it was a scary transition. I was unsure of whether I would fit in but was surprised to find the faculty and students very warm and welcoming. Thanks to the amazing PTA events from the dances to the game nights, I was able to make a ton of friends by the end of my first semester in the new school! When I entered high-school I was well supported in my studies. My high school offered after school tutoring services as well as test prep sessions which were especially beneficial during Junior year.

"text": "\"Frequently Asked Questions Why do we need to increase funding to magnet schools? Magnet schools have not received an increase in state funding since 2010. Each year, the cost of living increases and so do the costs of running schools. Many costs increase naturally each year. These include heating, building maintenance, teachers' salaries and benefits, athletic facilities and uniforms, support services, supplies, books, technology and more. If magnet schools do not receive an increase in funding, they will be forced to cut programs, charge for programs that are currently free of charge, or increase tuition to local school districts. How are magnet schools funded? Connecticut's system for funding magnet schools is very complex, and reimbursement differs depending on a variety of factors including the organization running the school and where the school is located. Because many magnet schools are not run by a traditional district, they do not receive money throught the traditional means of state funding, called the Education Cost Sharing (ECS) grant. The state reimburses magnet schools per pupil, but if the school is not run by a traditional district, the operator of a magnet school may charge the district where a student resides a minimal tuition to make up the difference between the state reimbursement and the cost of educating a student."

As of the 2010 census, the population was 139,966, [3] and in 2016, the population was estimated to be 155,810. [ 4] Located along the western bank of the Potomac River, Alexandria is approximately 7 miles (11 km) south of downtown Washington, D. C. Like the rest of Northern Virginia, as well as Central Maryland, modern Alexandria has been influenced by its proximity to the U. S. capital. It is largely populated by professionals working in the federal civil service, in the U. S. military, or for one of the many private companies which contract to provide services to the federal government. One of Alexandria's largest employers is the U. S. Department of Defense. Another is the Institute for Defense Analyses. In 2005, the United States Patent and Trademark Office moved to Alexandria, and in 2017, so did the headquarters of the National Science Foundation. The historic center of Alexandria is known as \"\"Old Town\"\". With its concentration of boutiques, restaurants, antique shops and theaters, it is a major draw for all who live in Alexandria as well for visitors. Like Old Town, many Alexandria neighborhoods are compact and walkable."

"text": "\"Premium Member Book ( Dec 2000 )Leadership for Differentiating Schools & Classroomsby Carol Ann Tomlinson and Susan Demirsky Allan Table of Contents Chapter 1. Understanding Differentiated Instruction: Building a Foundation for Leadership Look inside almost any classroom today and you'll see a mirror of our country. You'll find students from multiple cultures, some of whom are trying to bridge the languages and behaviors of two worlds. Students with very advanced learning skills sit next to students who struggle mightily with one or more school subjects. Children with vast reservoirs of background experience share space with peers whose world is circumscribed by the few blocks of their neighborhood. All these students have the right to expect enthusiastic teachers who are ready to meet the students as they are, and to move them along the pathway of learning as far as fast as possible. The reality, however, is that many of these students will encounter a teacher who is enmeshed in a system geared up to treat all 1st graders as though they were essentially the same, or all Algebra I students as though they were alike. Classrooms and schools are rarely organized to respond well to variations in student readiness, interest, or learning profile (Archambault et al., 1993; Bateman, 1993; International Institute for Advocacy for School Children, 1993; Mc Intosh, Vaughn, Schumm, Haager, & Lee, 1993; Tomlinson, 1995; Tomlinson, Moon, & Callahan, 1998; Westberg, Archambault, Dobyns, & a and b; Salvin, 1993). Most educators appear even to lack images of how a classroom might look—how we would “do school”—if our intent was to respond to individual learner needs."

"text": "\"This 2002 photo shows the inner loop of the Capital Beltway (I-495 eastbound) at EXIT 38 (I-270 SPUR) in Bethesda. ( Photo by Jim K. Georges. ) A LOOP AROUND THE NATION'S CAPITAL: Plans for a loop highway around the nation's capital were developed as early as the 1920's, but the first official plans for what was then known as the \"\"Washington Circumferential Highway\"\" were announced in 1952 by the National Capital Park and Planning Commission. From the beginning, the route was planned as a controlled-access road located as close as possible to developed areas. At the time of planning, most of the areas through which the freeway was to pass in Maryland and Virginia were undeveloped. There already was a nearby precedent for a loop highway. In 1949, work began on the Baltimore Beltway as a county project; the state took over the project during the early 1950's. With state funds directed at the Baltimore Beltway - and at that time, the state picked up half the tab for that route - funds were hard to come by for the \"\"Washington Circumferential Highway.\"\" Nevertheless, the need for building a highway around Washington's suburbs was a top priority in the early postwar era, when the threat of nuclear annihilation and long-term interruption of government functions prompted Federal officials to relocate a number of agencies from the District of Columbia to the nearby Maryland and Virginia suburbs. The beltway also was to serve as a critical route for military vehicles in the event of an attack."

"text": "\"Who Pays More Taxes? Virginia, Maryland or D. C.? Everybody knows that Washington is tax-o-lific, a fiscal conservative's nightmare, a city that sucks dollars out of residents' pockets like no place else. Except that everybody is wrong. A new comparison of the tax burdens in the D. C. area reveals that the stereotype of tax-loving District bureaucrats hoovering up residents' riches is true for the lowest income level--the $25,000 a year family indeed faces a greater burden in Washington than in suburban Maryland or Virginia. But at the $50,000 income level, the District turns out to have the lowest tax burden of the three jurisdictions, and for the next three higher income brackets--families earning $75,000, $100,000 or $150,000 a year--the District lands pretty much in the middle, ranking third among six area jurisdictions. The D. C. chief financial officer puts together an annual analysis of tax levels looking at income, sales, property and automotive taxes in the District, Arlington, Fairfax, Alexandria, Prince George's and Montgomery, and the results offer some surprises. Some things are as you might have expected: The D. C. income tax surpasses the metropolitan average at every income level. But property taxes make life in the District considerably less burdensome than in the suburbs for two reasons: The rates in the city are lower, and the District offers homeowners a homestead exemption--a deduction this year of $64,000 in housing value--well beyond any such relief in the suburbs. ( Virginia offers such relief mainly to the elderly. )"

"text": "\"Family and Consumer Sciencesby Janet F. Laster and Julie Johnson Table of Contents Major Trends in Family and Consumer Sciences Many forces shape FCS education (Redick, 1998). In addition to new philosophical foundations and knowledge within FCS and education in general, changes in society, families, and schools influence FCS curriculum. Current changes especially affecting the field include the changing characteristics and needs of families, and the movements toward results-oriented learning and seamless transitions from school to work and future learning (Minnesota Department of Children, Families & Learning, 1997). These forces are most influencing the current trends: Practical problem-focused, process-oriented curriculum Teaching for personal and socially responsible action Integrating FCS in educational reform Standards guiding program development and authentic assessment Specialized family-, career-, and community-focused semester courses Helping all students achieve high expectations Practical Problem-Focused, Process-Oriented Curriculum For the past 20 years, a practical problem-focused and process-oriented curriculum has been the basis for curriculum reform and renewal. Since the early 1980s, leaders in FCS have questioned the techni-cal nature of curriculum in FCS. The writings of Marjorie Brown and others stimulated dialogue and reflection about the curriculum in middle and secondary schools (Redick, 1998). Brown's work (1978, 1980) reflected a postmodern worldview in which (1) human relationships are cooperative and equal rather than coercive, individualistic, and patriarchal, (2) the wisdom of all cultures is respected, and (3) natural science is not the sole route to valid knowledge and inquiry (Thomas, 1998a). This worldview reflects a critical-science approach that can be described as practical problem-focused and process-oriented. Although not all states have moved to a critical-science approach, many states have included important processes in their curriculum as a way to resolve practical problems (Smith, 1998). This trend has made teachers more aware of the importance of process-centered curriculum to the learning and achievement of students."

We are coming from Pittsburgh, Pa and I'm thinking of hitting Charlottesville first, stay there (any suggestions for a nice inexpensive B&B?) then driving North to Mount Vernon. Again, does anyone have suggestions of places to stay near either of these two homes? I'd prefer a B&B with rates under $150/night. I was interested in taking a cruise of about an hour to Mount Vernon. Any suggestions here? Other areas of interest would be an evening ghost tour, see a historical play or dining outdoors at a historical site. Can anyone suggest anything?

"text": "Money, Storage Primary Obstacles in Police Body Camera Implementation The initial cost of the cameras are only the tip of the iceberg for municipalities; often the steepest costs come from storage fees.by Jason Kotowski, The Bakersfield Californian / March 8, 2016A Ferguson, Mo., police officer wears a body camera while responding to a call about a possible theft from a residence. David Carson/St. Louis Post-Dispatch/TNS (TNS) -- The largest law enforcement agencies in Kern County, Calif., are in agreement that body-worn cameras would provide a valuable service for officers and the general public. But there are two obstacles: Money and storage. There are the initial camera costs, with each camera running about $1,000, but the storage costs are where the real expense comes in. According to a recent Time article online, nearly a third of the 18,000 state and local police departments in the U. S. are purchasing body-cameras for their officers. That number is only expected to grow, and even local agencies say it’s likely just a matter of time before they’re also using body-cameras. And departments in larger cities, the article says, can generate more than 10,000 hours of video a week, requiring some agencies to turn to cloud-based high-volume storage facilities. Storing that much data comes at a steep price. The New Orleans Police Department, according to the article, plans to pay $1.2 million for body-cameras, with much of the cost going toward storage."

Questions dog Jagels Letter requesting information from Jagels By ROBERT PRICE, Californian staff writer e-mail: [email protected] Monday January 20, 2003, 03:40:00 PMFelix Adamo / The Californian District Attorney Ed Jagels watches the arraignment of Chris Hillis, accused of murdering Stephen M. Tauzer, who was Jagels' top assistant. Some have questioned whether Jagels should have reined in Tauzer from his involvement in the legal proceedings of Lance Hillis, Chris Hillis' son and a sometime housemate of Tauzer's. If it's true that Stephen Tauzer's relationship with a young drug addict led to his own brutal murder last September, uncomfortable questions could be asked of Kern County's district attorney. By all accounts, Tauzer went to bat in an unprecedented way for Lance Hillis, giving him money, cars and lodging, and writing letters to judges on Lance's behalf. Standing watch through it all was Tauzer's boss and longtime friend, Ed Jagels."

S. state of California that lies south of the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta and is drained by the San Joaquin River. It comprises seven Northern California counties—all of Kings County; a majority of Fresno, Merced, Stanislaus counties; segments of Madera and Tulare counties—and a majority of Kern County, in Southern California. [ 1] Although a majority of the valley is rural, it does contain cities such as Fresno, Bakersfield, Stockton, Modesto, Turlock, Porterville, Visalia, Merced, and Hanford. San Joaquin Valley was originally inhabited by the Yokuts and Miwok peoples. The first European to enter the valley was Pedro Fages in 1772.

Unlike the Sacramento Valley, the river system for which the San Joaquin Valley is named does not extend very far along the valley. Most of the valley south of Fresno, instead, drains into Tulare Lake, which no longer exists continuously due to diversion of its sources. The valley's primary river is the San Joaquin, which drains north through about half of the valley into the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta."

North of Los Angeles, the area also has the second-highest level of ozone pollution in the U. S.

Developed beginning in the 1890s, the area is emblematic of Boston's upper-class residential development of the period, with architect-designed houses built for some of the city's leading families. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. [ 1]Description and history [ edit]The Fenway-Boylston Street District is located on the east side of Boston's Back Bay Fens, a public park designed by Frederick Law Olmsted. The Fens are flanked here by The Fenway, a parkway built in the 1880s when the park was laid out. The east side of the parkway is lined with buildings historically built as residences, set between the parkway and Hemenway Street, which was built in 1878 on top of an embankment that had isolated the Muddy River flats earlier in the 19th century. The houses were built between 1890 and about 1910, and are built of brick and stone. Stylistically they range from the elaborate Queen Anne and Beaux Arts styles to the more restrained Classical Revival. Although the area had been intended as a residential area, it attracted institutions as well, and many of the buildings are today occupied by students at area educational institutions."

"text": "Kickboxing has existed for more than a thousand years in Thailand, and as Boston picks it up, class options abound. From Thai-trained masters to area gyms that offer classes, this city has everything locals need in kickboxing. Photo Credit: Think Stock Wai Kru 236 Brighton Ave. Allston, MA 02134 (857) 204-9267 www.waikru.com Price: $115 monthly membership Hours: Mon to Fri – 6 a.m. to 8 a.m., 12 p.m. to 10 p.m.; Sat – 12 p.m. to 6 p.m.; Sun – 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Kru John Allen of Allston, the instructor/owner at Wai Kru, took interest in kickboxing as a natural progression from college wrestling after watching the Bruce Lee’s martial arts movies. Kickboxing teaches children structure, discipline and learning to use their bodies, Allen says, but the bulk of Wai Kru’s classes belong to adults. Allen trained for three and a half years in Thailand with some of the sport’s masters and trains his athletes accordingly as a Thailand-certified Muay Thai conservator. Boston Athletic Club 653 Summer St. Boston, MA 02210 (617) 269-4300 www.bostonathleticclub.com/ Price: $35 non-members daily/$79 monthly membership/free one month with one year pre-paid Hours: Mon to Thurs – 5:30 a.m. to 11 p.m.; Fri – 5:30 a.m. to 9 p.m.; Sat – 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Sun – 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The BAC, as members fondly call it, is one of the largest gyms in the city, with enormous facilities for tennis, swimming, yoga and power yoga, group kick, and round-the-clock classes in every kind of exercise as well as a huge area for muscle work. Group kick fusion cardio/kickboxing classes promise metabolic conditioning with toning and confidence-building exercising. With the interest in kickboxing, it offers two weekly classes for members who want to experience kickboxing without buying a kickboxing-only gym membership.

Right here in Boston there are plenty of things to do, places to eat, and special events guaranteed to put you in the holiday spirit. Whether you’re thinking about checking out a show or catching up with friends at a local eatery, we’ve put together some great suggestions for making sure your weekend will be fun and festive. Where to eat—under $40Club CaféIf you forgot to RSVP for the undergraduate Thanksgiving meal at Marciano Commons on Thursday (sorry, the deadline was Monday), there are some great, affordable restaurant choices nearby. Club Café is offering a Thanksgiving buffet on Thursday. For $29.95, diners can feast on roast prime rib, baked cod, baked sweet potato, homemade cornbread, and pumpkin ravioli. For dessert, you can choose from a range of pies and cakes. You’ll also be helping out a good cause.

The original Parker House Hotel opened on the site on October 8, 1855, making it the longest continuously operating hotel in the United States. Additions and alterations were made to the original building starting only five years after its opening. Between 1866 and 1925, the hotel increased in size with new stories and additions, eventually expanding its footprint over 41,400 square feet of land—the bulk of the city lot bordered by Tremont, School, and Bosworth Streets and Chapman Place. Founder Harvey D. Parker ran the hotel until his death in 1884, when the business passed on to his partners. Subsequent proprietors of the Parker House were Edward O. Punchard and Joseph H. Beckman (1884–1891), Joseph Reed Whipple and the J. R. Whipple Corporation (1891–1933), Glenwood Sherrard (1933–1968), the Dunfey family (1968–1996), and Robert Rowling of TRT Holdings (1996–present).

During the day, bustling Newbury Street is a magnet for upscale shoppers looking to browse the designer and boutique clothing stores or pop into the pricey cafés and restaurants for an afternoon treat. Back Bay is also home to historic buildings like Trinity Church, the Old South Church, and the magnificently designed Boston Public Library, as well as two of Boston’s signature skyscrapers, the John Hancock Tower and the Prudential Center (“the Pru”), which boasts incredible views from its fiftieth-floor observation deck. Back Bay’s central location means that nightlife can vary from the classy wine bars and trattorias near Newbury Street to the handful of crowded and dingy dives along Boylston Street popular with students from the Berklee School of Music.

S. state of Tennessee, with a population of 177,571 in 2016. [ 4] The fourth-largest Tennessee city, it is the seat of Hamilton County. Located in southeastern Tennessee, on the Tennessee River, served by multiple railroads and Interstate highways, Chattanooga is a transit hub. Chattanooga lies 120 miles (190 km) northwest of Atlanta, Georgia, 120 miles (190 km) southwest of Knoxville, Tennessee, 135 miles (217 km) southeast of Nashville, Tennessee, 120 miles (190 km) northeast of Huntsville, Alabama, and 148 miles (238 km) northeast of Birmingham, Alabama. The city, with a downtown elevation of approximately 680 feet (210 m), lies at the transition between the ridge-and-valley portion of the Appalachian Mountains and the Cumberland Plateau. Surrounded by mountains and ridges, the official nickname for Chattanooga is the Scenic City, reinforced by the city's reputation for outdoor activities. Unofficial nicknames include River City, Chatt, Nooga, Chattown, and Gig City, referencing Chattanooga's claims that it has the fastest internet service in the Western Hemisphere. [ 8] [9]Chattanooga is internationally known for the 1941 song \"\" Chattanooga Choo Choo \"\" by Glenn Miller and his orchestra."

Routing numbers are also known as banking routing numbers, routing transit numbers, RTNs, ABA numbers, and sometimes SWIFT codes (although these are quite different from routing numbers as SWIFT codes are solely used for international wire transfers while routing numbers are used for domestic transfers). Routing numbers differ for checking and savings accounts, prepaid cards, IRAs, lines of credit, and wire transfers. All banks usually have separate routing numbers for each of the states in the US. You can look for the routing number on the check (cheque book) issued by your bank or can search this website for free."

S. Department of Education (ED) to clarify the requirements of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (Section 504) in the area of public elementary and secondary education. The primary purpose of these revisions is to incorporate information about the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act of 2008 (Amendments Act), effective January 1, 2009, which amended the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) and included a conforming amendment to the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 that affects the meaning of disability in Section 504. The Amendments Act broadens the interpretation of disability. The Amendments Act does not require ED to amend its Section 504 regulations. ED’s Section 504 regulations as currently written are valid and OCR is enforcing them consistent with the Amendments Act. In addition, OCR is currently evaluating the impact of the Amendments Act on OCR’s enforcement responsibilities under Section 504 and Title II of the ADA, including whether any changes in regulations, guidance, or other publications are appropriate. The revisions to this Frequently Asked Questions document do not address the effects, if any, on Section 504 and Title II of the amendments to the regulations implementing the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) that were published in the Federal Register at 73 Fed.

"text": "\"Residency Requirements – What’s the Fuss? Posted On Jul 13 2014 By : Trisha Powell Crain Comment: 0 Tag: residency requirement This is the time of year parents and families dig out the utility bills and ask for copies of leases and deeds to prove they live where they say they live in order to enroll their children in a school district. Typically, proof of residency is required in order to establish residency within the actual school district and within the actual school zone. This is particularly true in large school districts with multiple schools per age grouping. Schools in Alabama are funded with a blend of federal, state and local funding. Those school districts that provide high levels of local funding would naturally not want to spend local funding on students who are not actual residents of the geographic area of the school district (and thereby contributing to the local funds, whether through property tax or sales tax). Why are district officials protective of local funding? Local funding is the money that is used to fund additional opportunities for students, including technological devices, smaller class sizes, and a range of elective classes, to name a few. One urban legend needs to be taken on here: families who rent apartments DO pay property tax, even though renters are not billed directly for that property tax as homeowners are. Apartment buildings in Alabama are taxed as Class II properties, which means the apartment building’s owner pays property tax based on 20% of the assessed value of the property."

They permitted them to live, in secret, underground, as long as they promised not to try and rebel again; however, they still told the citizens of Panem that it had been destroyed. In a nutshell, that's what happens to/happened to District 13. Read Mockingjay if you haven't already .. it's not that hard to understand if you read the book."

During its existence, the county seat moved twice and ultimately portions of the territory it once had were carved up and added to nearby counties. It was formed from the northwestern portion of Trinity County, and originally included all of the northwestern part of the state, from the Mad River in the south to Oregon in the north, from the Pacific Ocean in the west to the middle of what is now Siskiyou County in the east.

In 1854 the county seat was moved to Crescent City, because of its larger population. But the western portion of the county was unrepresentative of the mining interests in the eastern portion of the county, and so, in 1856, the county seat was moved inland, to Orleans Bar, now Orleans. [ 1] In 1857, Del Norte County, including Crescent City, was split off from Klamath County. The county's economy was never healthy after the gold rush."

[ 6] Its motto is the \"\"Gateway to the Oregon Caves \"\", [7] and the city got its name by virtue of its location at the junction of Redwood Highway ( U. S. Route 199) and Caves Highway ( Oregon Route 46 ). [ 8] Cave Junction is located in the Illinois Valley, where, starting in the 1850s, the non-native economy depended on gold mining. After World War II, timber became the main source of income for residents. As timber income has since declined, Cave Junction is attempting to compensate with tourism and as a haven for retirees. Tourists visit the Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve, which includes the Oregon Caves Chateau, as well as the Out'n'About treehouse resort and the Great Cats World Park zoo.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search This is a list of school districts in California. California's public education system is huge (2007–2008): 6,275,469 students and 295,222 teachers in 9,846 schools, which are governed by 1,050 school boards and regulated by a complex Education Code. [ 1] California schools vary in their grade-level configuration. Most elementary schools encompass K–5 or K–6, middle schools 6–8, junior high 7–8 or 7–9, and high schools 9–12. K–8 schools are becoming more popular again, even in larger districts. California school districts are of several varieties, usually a Unified district, which includes all of the Elementary and High Schools in the same geographic area; Elementary school districts, which includes K–6 or K–8 schools only, which may have several elementary districts within one high school district's geographic area; and High School Districts, which include one or more high schools in the same geographic area. Elementary districts sometimes includes the word Elementary within their names, but often do not. Sometimes the words Joint and/or Union are included in the districts name, which generally specifies that the district was formed from several adjoining districts. With a few exceptions, the typical district grade configurations in California are elementary (K–8), high (9–12), and unified (K–12). Districts sometimes merge or consolidate; the number of districts can change annually. ["

I am developing contingencies in case Siskiyou Pass is closed due to snow. The main alternative I've come up with is driving back north to Grants Pass and go 199 to Crescent City, down 101 to 20, and back to I-5 , driving by Clear Lake along the way. This adds about 4 h to the leg from Medford to Sacramento continuing south. Does above sound reasonable as an alternative? My sense is that, if the pass is closed, we could end up staying another night in Medford, while above would keep us on the road. Not being familiar with area, I'm not sure how realistic this planning is. Car is a Mini with snow tires and traction devices in the hold, and we would plan to arrive at the pass late morning to give things a chance to warm up a bit. Any thoughts on the plan or alternate suggestions much appreciated.

Muddy streets and a keen entrepreneurial spirit defined Stockton, CA back in 1849. Before long, this bustling town and its waterways turned into a gateway for supplies needed in the nearby gold mining communities. The rest is Stockton history. When the Gold Rush ended in 1855, the city turned its attention to growing and transporting the vast array of agricultural products that thrived in Central California’s warm and sunny climate. By the end of the 19th century, a diverse group of residents, including Mexicans and Chinese, brought their unique cultures to the area. The city transformed into a major industrial and transportation center -- with flour mills, carriage and wagon factories, iron foundries, and shipyards. In 1933, the Port of Stockton opened as the first inland seaport in California. Today, the Delta waterfront is still a busy commercial port -- connecting San Francisco Bay, the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers."

Since that time, the city has been a major commercial and trade center on the southeastern seaboard of North America. Its architecture reflects numerous significant periods of development, with high-quality examples of different architectural styles resulting from the city's continued importance through more than 300 years of history. Significant among these are a large number of Charleston \"\"single houses\"\", which are typically a single room in depth, and oriented with the short access toward the street, with the entrance area on a long side. These types of houses are built using all types of building materials, including wood, brick, and stucco.

[ 1] The county is the site of the Revolutionary War Battle of King's Mountain. Agriculture South Carolina's agricultural weakness was in its soil. Agriculture during the time was often associated with spirituality. Tilling and tending the earth was seen as a sacred trust from God. Many preachers in the Carolinas gave sermons linking the neglect of the soil and the lack of agricultural success, and blaming the farming struggle on a decrease in religiosity. This led to not only an economic crisis, but also a spiritual and mental crisis. Farmers whose land suffered in South Carolina were experiencing a major self-esteem blow because of the alleged connection between agriculture and spirituality. Uncertainties in the cotton marked remained in a dejected state until 1850."

"text": "SC Counties There are 46 counties in South Carolina ranging in population from 9,958 (Mc Cormick County) to 379,616 (Greenville County). Counties operate under four forms of government: council (six counties); council-supervisor (four counties); council-administrator (34 counties); and council-manager (two counties). Under the council form, the council has responsibility for policymaking and administration. Under the council-supervisor form, administrative responsibility resides in an elected supervisor who serves as chair of council, but only votes in case of a tie. In both the council-administrator and council-manager forms, administrative responsibility rests with a professional administrator/manager who reports to the council. In the council-manager form, the auditor and treasurer may be appointed by the council rather than elected. County council members are elected to two- or four-year terms, either at large or by single member districts. All county elections are partisan. Constitutional officers elected to four-year terms are the clerk of court, coroner and sheriff. Statutory officers elected countywide to four-year terms are the auditor, treasurer and probate judge."

This facility is the first of its kind in the Southeast, giving officers the technology to detect safety violations on commercial trucks that could lead to deadly collisions on the highways. The new site is fully operational and in use. The newly designed facility allows officers to better regulate truck traffic passing through the area because trucks are weighed and have their credentials screened against federal and state safety standards while they are still moving at speed on the interstate . This technology is called weigh in motion. The new weigh station also has an inspection shed – the first in the state – built on site with a pit. This allows officers access underneath the trucks to more thoroughly inspect brakes and other operating systems. The SC Department of Transportation provided the land for the weigh station, located near mile marker 74, northbound on Interstate 95 in Dorchester County. The weigh station was built in an unused truck parking area. Construction on the project began January 2011."

It encompasses seven contributing buildings and illustrates Pineville's original role as a 19th-century pineland village, and its gradual transformation to agricultural land and to a year-round community in the late-19th and early-20th centuries. The Pineville Historic District consists of four principal buildings, three residential buildings and one Episcopal church, ranging in date from about 1810 through 1925. The architectural styles represented include Federal, Greek Revival, and Bungalow. In the mid to late-19th century, Pineville was a densely settled village that included as many as one hundred buildings, including an academy, racetrack, library, churches, and residences. Much of the town was burned by Union troops at the close of the American Civil War in April 1865."

"text": "\"Apr 23, 201212 Inspiring Schools Using Khan Academyby Staff Writers Over the past few years, Khan Academy has grown from a few simple You Tube videos into a fully-featured, interactive educational system that allows students to learn and measure their progress at their own pace. It has drawn the attention of big names like Bill Gates and is being used in some form at hundreds of schools nationwide. In short, it’s pretty hot right now, and you’d be remiss as an educator or a student not to check out what it has to offer. Whether you want to use it as a study tool for your own education or bring it in as an alternative way for students in your classes to learn a subject, it’s simple and free to get started with Khan Academy. This is perhaps a large part of the reason why it’s proving so popular nationwide. Here, we’ve highlighted some of the many schools that are using Salman Khan’s instructional videos to teach, learn, share, and grow from elementary school to high school. You may just find inspiration to start using Khan Academy on your own!Los Altos School District: If there’s a model of a school using Khan Academy, it’s this Silicon Valley-adjacent school district. The district is participating in a pilot program in partnership with the developers at Khan Academy, and the results of student experiences with the videos and learning tools are being closely monitored. So far, things seem promising and the school has recently expanded the Khan program to all schools and a wider range of grade levels. Khan videos and materials are most often used in math courses to supplement and support existing lesson plans."

In simple terms … What is the Bond Debt Assessment for? The Bond Debt Assessment reflects each lot’s proportionate share of the cost of building the infrastructure within its District or for which its District has responsibility. It is the most equitable method of distributing costs between the properties that benefit from the infrastructure. Infrastructure includes storm water systems, underground pump stations, water retention areas, curbs, gutters, streetlights, transportation trails, underground piping, etc. The Community Development District is our local form of government. It is State regulated and is comparable to a city or township tax that you may be familiar with paying. Typically a local municipality develops the infrastructure of a neighborhood and then maintains it. Because we are not in a \"\"city,\"\" the Community Development Districts are used for this purpose. There are two parts to the Community Development District: • The Debt Assessment (Bond) is the cost for creating the initial infrastructure."

Of the acts of clemency, 1,715 were commutations (including 504 life sentences) and 212 were pardons. [ 2] Most individuals granted executive clemency by Obama had been convicted on drug charges, [3] and had received lengthy and sometimes mandatory sentences at the height of the War on Drugs. [ 4]Obama holds the record for the largest single-day use of the clemency power, granting 330 commutations on January 19, 2017, his last full day in office. [ 5] [6] He also has issued more commutations than the past thirteen presidents combined.

Definitions [ edit]A pardon is an executive order granting clemency for a conviction, it may be granted \"\"at any point after the...commission\"\" of the crime. [ 8] As per Justice Department regulations, convicted persons may only apply five or more years after their sentence has been completed. [ 9] However, the President's power to pardon is not restricted by any temporal constraints except that the crime must have been committed. Its practical effect is the restoration of civil rights and statutory disabilities (i.e., firearm rights, occupational licensing) associated with a past criminal conviction. ["

"text": "Tribes: Fond du Lac The Fond du Lac Reservation is located in Carlton and St. Louis counties about adjacent to the City of Cloquet on the east, and 15 miles west of Duluth. The tribal headquarters are in Cloquet, Minnesota. History The Anishinaabeg (an Ojibwe/Chippewa word meaning “The People”) of the Fond du Lac Reservation are primarily members of the Lake Superior Band of Minnesota Chippewa. The Chippewa Nation is the second largest ethnic group of Indians in the United States. Archaeologists maintain that ancestors of the present day Chippewa have resided in the Great Lakes region since at least 800 A. D. They are members of the Algonquin linguistic family, which also includes the Ottawa, Potowatomi, Fox, Cree, Menominee, and many other smaller tribes. At one time, Algonquin territory extended from the Atlantic Coast to the Rocky Mountains, and from Hudson Bay south to the Cumberland River. Control over some of this vast area passed gradually to other groups of Indians such as the Iroquois, and ultimately seized by Europeans. Historians generally divide Chippewa history into four periods: Pre-contact, French, English, and U. S. It is most difficult to speak authoritatively about the Pre-contact period; scant archaeological evidence and the ‘oral tradition’ are the only sources of knowledge for the time up to about 1600 A. D. Early Woodland cultures, which date back to at least 500 B. C., were similar enough to Late Woodland cultures (800 A. D. to 1600 A. D.) to convince archaeologists that ancestors of the present day Chippewa have lived in the Great Lakes region for several centuries. Oral traditions speak of a westward migration from the Atlantic Seaboard, which proceeded through the Great Lakes region until it came to Sault Ste. Marie, where the migration wave split into two groups – one went along the north shore of Lake Superior into Canada, and the other went south of Lake Superior into Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota."

Routing numbers are also known as banking routing numbers, routing transit numbers, RTNs, ABA numbers, and sometimes SWIFT codes (although these are quite different from routing numbers as SWIFT codes are solely used for international wire transfers while routing numbers are used for domestic transfers). Routing numbers differ for checking and savings accounts, prepaid cards, IRAs, lines of credit, and wire transfers. All banks usually have separate routing numbers for each of the states in the US. You can look for the routing number on the check (cheque book) issued by your credit union or can search this website for free."

"text": "Under Sections 500-511 of the California Labor Code, as well as section 11010 of the California Code, nurses are entitled to time and one-half pay after working eight hours in any 24-hour period. After working 12 hours in any 24-hour period, nurses are entitled to double their usual pay per hour. As calculated on the weekly scale, nurses working longer than 40 hours in any seven-day span are entitled to time and one-half pay. After the 8th hour on the seventh day, the nurse is entitled to double his or her usual pay. This Code section does not apply to any employee who voluntarily agrees to an alternative work schedule reflecting for 10-hour workdays per workweek if such schedule was established prior to July 1, 1999. Under Sections 512 and 1030 of the California Labor Code and sections 11010 and 11160 of the California Code, nurses are entitled to a 30-minute unpaid meal break after five hours of consecutive work unless the work day will be complete in six hours or less. In addition, nurses working 10 or more hours in a single day are entitled to two 30-minute unpaid meal breaks unless the work day will be no longer than 12 hours. In that case, the second mandatory meal break may be waived provided the first meal break was not waived. California law permits nurses to eat while on duty provided the nature of their work requires this type of situation. Employers are required to provide a paid ten-minute rest break for each four hours worked unless the shift is 3.5 hours or less."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search San Francisco City Hall California has an extensive and complicated system of local government that manages public functions throughout the state. Like most states, California is divided into counties, of which there are 58 (including San Francisco [note 1]) covering the entire state. Most urbanized areas are incorporated as cities, [note 2] though not all of California is within the boundaries of a city. School districts, which are independent of cities and counties, handle public education. Many other functions, especially in unincorporated areas, are handled by special districts, which include municipal utility districts, transit districts, vector control districts, and geologic hazard abatement districts. Due to geographical variations in property tax and sales tax revenue (the primary revenue source for cities and counties) and differing attitudes towards priorities, there are variations in the levels of various services from one city to the next. Article 2, Section 6, of California's constitution provides that elections for county, city, school, and judicial offices are officially non-partisan and political party affiliations are not included on local election ballots. Contents [ hide ]1 Counties2 Cities and towns3 School districts3.1 Community colleges4 Special districts5 See also6 Notes7 References Counties [ edit]See also: List of counties in California The basic political subdivision of California are the 58 counties. The county government provides countywide services such as law enforcement, jails, elections and voter registration, vital records, property assessment and records, tax collection, public health, health care, social services, libraries, flood control, fire protection, animal control, agricultural regulations, building inspections, ambulance services, and education departments in charge of maintaining statewide standards. [ 1] [2] In addition the county serves as the local government for all unincorporated areas (those areas not within any incorporated city), providing services such as police, parks, street maintenance, land use regulations, zoning, and waste disposal.

He's helped write and pass laws about city debt and finance that many say helped the city recover from a deep financial crisis. Now he wants to lead the city from the office of mayor, squaring off against current Fresno County Supervisor Henry Perea in the November election. Perea Backs City-Sanctioned Homeless Encampments For Fresno By Joe Moore • Mar 15, 2016Yellowfeather Noriega / http://survivingfresno.blogspot.com/Fresno mayoral candidate and current Fresno County Supervisor Henry R. Perea supports the idea of city sanctioned encampments for Fresno’s homeless population. Speaking on Valley Public Radio’s Valley Edition, Perea says city and county officials have been making progress in getting many homeless people into housing. But he adds the problem of people living on the streets has become more visible since the city closed down several illegal downtown encampments in 2013. Perea says legalized encampments should be an option. Valley Edition: March 15 - Water Pollution; Henry R. Perea; Fresno Architecture By Ezra David Romero & Joe Moore • Mar 15, 2016Valley Public Radio This week on Valley Edition we hear a story from KQED Central Bureau Chief about a potentially harmful chemical in Fresno's water and what residents can do about it. We also hear from Fresno mayoral candidate and current County Supervisor Henry R. Perea about his vision for the city. Henry R. Perea Hopes To Be Fresno's Next Mayor By Joe Moore & Ezra David Romero • Mar 15, 2016Henry R. Perea - Facebook Henry Perea is no stranger to Fresno politics."

Fontana San Bernardino General – 1Serious – 3Willful Serious – 1Total Violations - 5Proposed penalties: $130,125Cal/OSHA issued five citations to Elite Electric after a 29-year-old solar panel installer fell 29 feet through a skylight, suffering extremely serious injuries. The citations included a willful serious violation of the requirement that employers use fall protection systems to keep employees safe. In this case, the employer did not provide the protection even though the company charged the building owner for it. There was no evidence of fall protection anywhere in the building, despite the presence of more than 140 skylights on the roof.1155351: Citation documents N/A. Intent to appeal filed 11/21/2016.12/03/2015 Kaiser Foundation Hospitals Vallejo American Canyon General – 2Serious – 1Willful Serious – 2Total Violations - 5Proposed penalties: $149,900Citations were issued to the Kaiser Foundation Hospital in Vallejo as a result of a complaint-based investigation. The citations included willful serious violations of the bloodborne pathogens standard which requires employers to protect workers from blood or other disease-carrying fluids. Cal/OSHA inspectors found in this case that custodial workers were exposed to infection at the hospital's collection box for used needles. The box frequently overflowed with uncapped needles, preventing the lid from closing properly. Workers often removed waste from the box by hand.1068406: Citation documents N/A11/24/2015 Ashley Furniture Industries, Inc.

A watering tank and pump on that line was the beginning of Kerman, which was christened Collis in honor of the President of the road, Collis Potter Huntington. The first inhabitant, the caretaker of the pump and tank, kept the tank full of water for the thirsty engines with their long and lumbering trains. After some months, he resigned his job, not because of the work, he said, but because it was too lonesome and he was tired of being a hermit. He said he never saw anyone but the train crews and they were always in too big a hurry to carry on a conversation."

These same Dutch also built a town of New Milford in eastern Bergen County. When both New Milfords applied for post offices in 1828, a clerk in Washington, D. C. is said to have approved the other application first and assigned the name \"\"West Milford\"\" to the New Milford in western Bergen County in order to distinguish between the two locations. [ 20]West Milford became a municipality by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 10, 1834, when it was formed from the westernmost half of Pompton Township, while the area was still part of Bergen County. On February 7, 1837, Passaic County was created from portions of both Bergen County and Essex County, with West Milford as the western end of the newly formed county. [ 21] The township was named for Milford, Connecticut. [ 22]There are old name places in the township including Postville, Utterville, Corterville, Browns, Awosting, Echo Lake, Macopin, Charlottenburg (now under the Charlotteburg Reservoir, the community was named after King George III 's wife, Queen Charlotte ), Clinton (or sometimes called Clinton Furnace, now under the Clinton Reservoir, and the furnace still stands), Moe Mountain, Oak Ridge (a nameplace, but town is under the Oak Ridge Reservoir), Newfoundland, Apshawa, New City, and Smith Mills."

Although East Dallas was once a separate city from Dallas (it was annexed by Dallas in 1890), it has no official boundaries. East Dallas has established itself as a recreational, cultural, and architectural hot-spot in the DFW Metroplex and is highly sought-after by home buyers because of these unique mix of qualities. The recreational amenities offered by its proximity to White Rock Lake and the Dallas Arboretum, along with the many parks, creeks, greenbelts and towering, mature trees make East Dallas an attractive place to call home for those that enjoy an active lifestyle in the midst of nature and scenery. East Dallas has a very unique biodiversity of trees and plants and has more trees than many areas of Dallas. East Dallas also has an impressive cultural diversity among its many restaurants, retail shops, arts and entertainment facilities, schools, and houses of worship. Independent and specialty shops and restaurants are very common, although larger retailers and chains are abundant as well. East Dallas also has some of the most architecturally significant residential, commercial and retail properties — many located within historic and conservation districts which preserve their character and charm. Home styles in East Dallas neighborhoods range from traditional styles such as cottages, ranch-styles, and prairies to Mid-Century Moderns, Spanish and French Eclectics, Colonials, Craftsmen, and many others that are not native styles to Texas. Some neighborhoods have remained in much the same condition as when they were built."

As of 2016, Cranbrook's population is 20,047 with a census agglomeration population of 26,083. It is the location of the headquarters of the Regional District of East Kootenay and also the location of the regional headquarters of various provincial ministries and agencies, notably the Rocky Mountain Forest District. Cranbrook is home to the Canadian Museum of Rail Travel which presents static exhibits of passenger rail cars built in the 1920s for the CPR and in the 1900s for the Spokane International Railway. It is also the home of the Kootenay Ice, a WHL hockey team, who has won the league title three times and the Memorial Cup once.

In 1898, Baker had successfully convinced Canadian Pacific Railway to establish their Crowsnest Pass line through Cranbrook rather than nearby Gold Rush Boom Town Fort Steele. With that accomplishment Cranbrook became the major centre of the region, while Fort Steele declined; however, the latter is today a preserved heritage town. On November 1, 1905, Cranbrook was incorporated as a city. Some of the major industries include mining and forestry services, trades, and health care."

The district is governed by a board of education which consists of a seven-member group of citizens elected to four year terms to serve the patrons and students of this district. [ 3] The day-to-day operations of the district are managed by a superintendent. The current [ when?] superintendent is Samuel Y. Jarman. The district currently has nine large high schools, and only seven school board members, leading some parents and students to express concerns over inadequate representation on the school board. [ citation needed] A tenth large high school will open in 2019. Some parents would like to see the district split into two or three new school districts, allowing more direct control over their local schools."

[ 1]The county was created in 1822 from parts of Botetourt County, Bath County, and Monroe County (now in West Virginia). At the time, the majority of the population lived around Covington, and the primary cash crop then was hemp, which was used for rope production. As of the 2010 census, the population was 16,250, which is an increase of more than twenty-five percent from the 2000 census. [ 2] The majority of that growth, however, can be attributed to the reincorporation of the formerly independent city of Clifton Forge back into Alleghany County in 2001.

Northwest Hills retains many of its original homes, along with beautiful surroundings, safe neighborhoods and proximity to downtown. In fact, the 10-15 minute commute to downtown (or nearly anywhere else in Austin) makes Northwest Hills a popular choice for those who want to really enjoy all that Austin has to offer. But Northwest Hill residents don't have to go far for entertainment and amenities. For example, there is an HEB in the heart of this area just off of Far West Boulevard and a Randall's off of 2222. Residents also enjoy the incredible shopping at the Domain, which is less than five minutes up Mopac. Apart from the helpful shopping areas, there are plenty of sites to see and places to go in and around Northwest Hills. For example, you can start your day with a morning jog along the track that winds through Camp Mabry, then head over to Chez Zee for lunch, and top off the day watching the sunset atop Mount Bonnell. Northwest Hills is the perfect location for those who are looking for beautiful surroundings, proximity to downtown and a plethora of nearby amenities.24 Listings Showing 1 - 24Image may be subject to copyright Terms of Use Map Satellite Northwest Hills Location and Map View all properties Northwest Hills is located to the west of Mopac (Loop 1) and is roughly borded by Mesa Drive (West), W Anderson Lane (North), Mopac (East) and 2222/Allandale Road (South).

The weather is also more pleasant around September and October, with temperatures in the high 20°C.

Pre-European Exploration The area which is now Huntsville has been inhabited at least 10,000 years. Early inhabitants lived in the White River lowlands, farming there and building some mound centers; the upland shelters served as storage areas, burial sites, and temporary camps. Artifacts of the Mississippian culture have been found at the Huntsville Mounds, an archaeological site near the town. By the historic period, all of what is now Madison County was part of the Osage hunting grounds. Treaties in 1808 and 1825 ceded Osage interest in these lands to the United States. The signature of Hurachais, the War Eagle,appears on the 1825 treaty; he is commonly thought to have been the Osage leader in the Huntsville area, and a local creek and township are named after him. Louisiana Purchase through Early Statehood Explorers from Alabama came to what is now Huntsville in 1827. It was named after their hometown, though most local settlers were from Tennessee. Madison County was established in 1836, and it was clear that Huntsville would be the county seat."

The word houma or ouma means \"\"red\"\" in the tribe's language, which referred to the sun or possibly to their war emblem, the crawfish. Most of the pioneers who came to Terrebonne migrated from the Mississippi River, down Bayou Lafourche and Bayou Terrebonne. There was an influx of French settlers from New Orleans to Houma after the Spanish domination in 1762. Other pioneers were exiled French colonists, known as Acadians from Nova Scotia, who searched for a new settlement for 10 years before arriving in Terrebonne Parish. One of the most southern of all Louisiana parishes, Terrebonne was established on March 22, 1822, when it was annexed from Lafourche Parish. The French settlers to this area christened it terre bonne meaning \"\"good earth\"\" because of the abundance of wildlife, seafood and fertile land. They chose this area because of its isolated geographic location, minimal government control and fertile land. Though the primary settlers were of French origin, over the years many Spanish, English, Italian, German and West Caribbean cultures have made Terrebonne Parish their home. Old Southern plantation life was dominant in Terrebonne Parish."

And in today’s economy, a $750,000 minimum price tag just for sound, lighting, stage rigging and seats can seem exorbitant. “ And that’s in a low construction cost area,” says David Kromm, president of Kromm Rikimaru and Johansen, an architectural firm in St. Louis, Mo., that has built several high school auditoriums. “ Missouri has pretty low costs compared to Chicago,” which is the next biggest city in the area. Schools that have built new auditoriums or upgraded existing ones in the past decade say the investment is worth every penny. For many, it becomes a community gathering place and an attraction to hold regional events that bring in cash. For others, it offers students a quality educational experience in their future profession. Take Mc Eachern High School in Cobb County School District, just outside Atlanta. Using dollars from the public school’s trust fund, the district built in 1996 an 877-seat stand-alone auditorium on its campus that includes luxuries like an orchestra pit that can be raised or lowered, two rehearsal suites (one for instrumental, the other for vocal), a costume room, and a scene shop connected to a loading dock for professional scene deliveries."

"text": "\"While many written histories of Milton emphasize the heroic deeds of the lumbermen who built up an impressive logging industry, the lives of a majority of the residents throughout the town's history remain unsung. Farming also saw its successes and failures, from the nineteenth century “sheep boom” to the rise of dairying in the following century, to the decline of large scale farming and the evolution of “niche market” farming in the face of encroaching suburban development. The history of agriculture in Milton covers over two hundred years of farm families who have worked this rugged terrain and continue to dedicate themselves to maintaining this bond with the land despite the changing face of the landscape. The Town of Milton lies in the northwestern corner of Chittenden County, stretching eastward from the coast of Lake Champlain, north of Malletts Bay, to higher elevations inland. The width of the town allows for a range of soil, terrain and climate, which affected the development of agriculture in the area. In 1974, the Vermont Geological Survey found that Milton extends across two distinct geomorphic regions, the fertile “Champlain Lowland” in the west and the rugged “Green Mountains” in the east. The surface soil varies in content from the rocky ground of higher elevations to the sand and gravel mixtures found in lower areas along the Lamoille river and its tributaries (fig. 1). ( 1)Figure 1. Surficial Material Map of Milton."

Victory Land Presser on Monday, April 4, 2016 in Shorter, Ala Todd Van Emst/[email protected] Todd Van Emst/[email protected] Victory Land will reopen Sept. 13 with 500 electronic bingo machines and 200 employees. Milton Mc Gregor, Victory Land’s owner, and Johnny Ford, Tuskegee’s mayor, jointly made the announcement in a press release Sunday afternoon. The casino was closed in 2013 after a raid by the attorney general’s office seized 1,615 electronic bingo machines. Gov. Robert Bentley signed an executive order in November 2015 removing the attorney general’s authority to enforce gambling laws and giving it to county sheriffs. The Alabama Supreme Court ruled in March that Victory Land’s bingo machines seized in the raid were illegal, overruling a circuit court judge who said the state was “cherry-picking” which facilities were allowed to operate and had ordered the machines returned. Despite the ruling, Mc Gregor said he would reopen this summer in an April press conference at the casino. Read: Victory Land aims to reopen 'bigger and better' than before“We have been working with Mayor Johnny Ford, our outstanding Sheriff and District Attorney, and many others for months to get the doors to Victory Land back open,” Mc Gregor said in the press release Sunday. “ While it has taken longer than we hoped, the time is now here and we are pleased that hundreds of our people will have a new job and Victory Land will be generating a badly needed shot in the arm for Tuskegee and this entire region of Alabama."

Its council is based in Sittingbourne. The district is named after the narrow channel called The Swale, a channel that separates the mainland of Kent from the Isle of Sheppey, and which occupies the central part of the district. The Roman Watling Street passed through the area, as witness the straightness of the A2 main road, now by-passed by the M2 motorway. Apart from the northern coast of the Isle of Sheppey, and the town of Sittingbourne, it is a mainly rural borough, containing a high proportion of the UK's apple, pear, cherry and plum orchards (the North Kent Fruit Belt), as well as many of its remaining hop gardens. Most of the southern half of the Borough lies within the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, whilst Sittingbourne and the Isle of Sheppey forms the concluding part of the Thames Gateway growth area. [ 2]The district was formed in 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972, from the Borough of Faversham; the Borough of Queenborough-in-Sheppey, which covered the whole of Sheppey; the Sittingbourne and Milton Urban District; and Swale Rural District. Swale railway station is at the southern end of the Kingsferry Bridge."

The town was known by various names until 1807, when it was named for the English poet, John Milton. The Delaware General Assembly passed the charter that recognized The Town of Milton as a municipality in 1945. History and Milton’s shipbuilding heritage remain very important to the town, which is home to some of the finest Victorian and Colonial architecture in Delaware. Many of the homes have been restored to their original form, particularly those on Union and Federal streets. Milton has 198 structures on the Federal Register Historic District and its history is preserved in the Lydia Black Cannon Museum, the Governor James Carey home, the Chestnut Street Cemetery, and the Governor David Hazzard Mansion. Today, Milton serves local residents and summer tourists in the Milton, Broadkill Beach and Primehook Beach areas with family operated businesses and new office and shopping complexes. Milton boasts numerous community organizations, a civic center, a memorial park, a volunteer fire department, a public library, more than a half-dozen major annual events, and churches. Recreational opportunities abound with the Broadkill River, Wagamon’s Pond, Diamond Pond and Lavinia Pond. Public boat docks and fishing piers are also available."

The man who began it all, Milton S. Hershey, was satisfied to let his accomplishments and products speak for themselves. For more information about the history of Hershey, PA please visit the Hershey Community Archives website at Hershey Archives.org. Life of Milton S. Hershey Born September 13, 1857 on a farm near Derry Church, a small Pennsylvania community, Milton Hershey was the only surviving child of Fannie and Henry Hershey. His mother raised him in the strict discipline of the Mennonite faith. Frequent family moves interrupted his schooling and left him with a limited education. He only completed the fourth grade. Following a four-year apprenticeship with a Lancaster candy maker, he established his first candy making business in Philadelphia. That initial effort failed as did his next two attempts in Chicago and New York. Returning to Lancaster, PA in 1883, Hershey established the Lancaster Caramel Company, which quickly became an outstanding success."

It originates from Yamunotri glaciers in the lower Himalayas at an elevation of approximately 6387 meters. The barrages formed on the river are playing a major role in escalating the river pollution. River can be divided into five segments on the bases of hydrological and ecological conditions. Water quality of only one segment (Himalayan segment) meets the river water quality standards. Normally no water is allowed to flow downstream of the Himalayan segment (Tejewala barrage) especially in the summer and winter seasons to fulfill the demand of water of the surrounding area. Whatever water flows in the downstream of the Tajewala barrage is the untreated or partially treated domestic and Industrial wastewater contributed through various drains. The discharge of untreated domestic and industrial effluents have severely affected the quality of Yamuna River and now it falls under the category E, which makes it fit only for recreation and industrial cooling, completely ruling out the possibility for underwater life and domestic supply. Almost every year mass death of fishes is reported. Pollution levels in the Yamuna River have risen."

The tool is created by Cisco Systems. The purpose of Packet Tracer is to offer students a tool to learn the principles of networking as well as develop Cisco technology specific skills. However, it is not be used as a replacement for Routers or Switches. Here how it looks like after we start it. We are different modules and panels available in the packet tracer. Some important modules, which are important to understand for the working in Packet Tracer, are mentioned in the following diagram. Now, in order to create a topology, we will have to select some of the devices and put them in our main window i.e. the white portion of packet tracer. and here how it looks after we add the devices.

Originating from the Yamunotri Glacier at a height of 6,387 metres on the south western slopes of Banderpooch peaks in the uppermost region of the Lower Himalaya in Uttarakhand, it travels a total length of 1,376 kilometres (855 mi) and has a drainage system of 366,223 square kilometres (141,399 sq mi), 40.2% of the entire Ganges Basin, before merging with the Ganges at Triveni Sangam, Allahabad, the site for the Kumbha Mela every twelve years. It is the longest river in India which does not directly flow to the sea. It crosses several states, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, passing by Uttarakhand and later Delhi, and meets its tributaries on the way, including Tons, its largest tributary in Uttarakhand, Chambal, its longest tributary which has its own large basin, followed by Sindh, the Betwa, and Ken. Most importantly it creates the highly fertile alluvial, Yamuna-Ganges Doab region between itself and the Ganges in the Indo-Gangetic plain. Nearly 57 million people depend on the Yamuna waters. With an annual flow of about 10,000 cubic billion metres (cbm) and usage of 4,400 cbm (of which irrigation constitutes 96 per cent), the river accounts for more than 70 per cent of Delhi’s water supplies. Just like the Ganges, the Yamuna too is highly venerated in Hinduism and worshipped as goddess Yamuna, throughout its course."

It's in Southport where the mouth of the Cape Fear River intersects with the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. The streets of Southport are lined with majestic oaks that shade historic Victorian homes and cottages, many of which belonged to river pilots, ship captains, and perhaps even a pirate or two! Cozy neighborhoods surround the historic Howe Street, the main artery of a vibrant downtown district with five blocks of antique and specialty shops, art galleries, restaurants and professional offices. Southport looks and feels like an authentic established community, a refreshing contrast to more recent planned communities of look-alike houses—just one of the many reasons to fall in love with this coastal gem. Lifestyle and Leisure in Southport Southport is steeped in Americana. In fact, for more than 200 years, the City of Southport has celebrated our nation's independence with a Fourth of July Festival. Every year, vendors from across the country and more than 50,000 visitors travel to Southport for four days of fun and excitement downtown. Highlights include hundreds of arts & craft booths, food vendors, a 5K race, a parade, live entertainment and fireworks. Although July 4th might bring noisy music, large crowds and exciting fireworks, for the rest of the year, Southport returns to its authentic nature, that of a quiet, quaint fishing village of approximately 3,000 year-round residents."

Of Fish & Wildlife Plenty of good reasons to renewfishing and hunting licenses soon Spring chinook salmon are moving into the lower Columbia River, several eastside lakes open for trout fishing March 1, and razor clam digs are scheduled this month – including the first dig of the season on morning tides. These fisheries are just the first of many set to open in the weeks ahead, and the year’s first hunting seasons aren’t far behind. A spring wild turkey season for hunters under age 16 is scheduled April 4-5 prior to the start of the general spring turkey hunt April 15. With a new season of outdoor adventures about to begin, Washingtonians might want to consider purchasing 2015-16 fishing and hunting licenses before current licenses expire at midnight March 31.“We encourage people to renew their fishing and hunting licenses early, so they can take advantage of all the great recreational opportunities available throughout the year,” said Joe Stohr, deputy director of the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW). The cost of fishing and hunting licenses currently remain the same as last year. All fees included, a resident adult freshwater fishing license is $29.50; saltwater is $30.05; and a combination license is $54.25. Resident hunting licenses vary with package options, ranging from a small-game license at $40.50 to a deer/elk/cougar/bear combination license for $95.50. Most annual licenses include a WDFW vehicle access pass, which gives people access to more than 700 WDFW water access sites throughout the state. Or, for $35, individuals can purchase an annual Discover Pass, which also provides vehicle access to state parks and other state lands."

If you have any questions about his submission or wish to contact him, please email him here. The Orchards Mall in Benton Harbor, Michigan opened in October 1979. The mall was built on the site of a former apple orchard, giving it its name. The location of The Orchards Mall is less than a mile from Interstate 94. In 1979, when the mall opened, most of the area surrounding the mall was vacant or farmland. Benton Harbor is located next to the city of St. Joseph, Benton Harbor’s twin city, home of The Whirlpool Corporation. Prior to the opening of The Orchards Mall, locals from Benton Harbor and St. Joseph shopped at Fairplain Plaza. The plaza was located less than a mile away from The Orchards Mall. Fairplain Plaza was the usual open air plaza of the 60’s/70’s era."

The tenth-most-populous city in New York, its population was 62,235 in the 2010 U. S. census. Located on the Mohawk River at the foot of the Adirondack Mountains, Utica is approximately 90 miles (145 km) northwest of Albany and 45 miles (72 km) east of Syracuse. Utica and the nearby city of Rome anchor the Utica–Rome Metropolitan Statistical Area, which comprises all of Oneida and Herkimer counties. Formerly a river settlement inhabited by the Mohawk tribe of the Iroquois Confederacy, Utica attracted European-American settlers from New England during and after the American Revolution. In the 19th century, immigrants strengthened its position as a layover city between Albany and Syracuse on the Erie and Chenango Canals and the New York Central Railroad. During the 19th and 20th centuries, the city's infrastructure contributed to its success as a manufacturing center and defined its role as a worldwide hub for the textile industry. Utica's 20th-century political corruption and organized crime gave it the nicknames \"\" Sin City \"\", [12] and later, \"\"the city that God forgot\"\". [ 13]Like other Rust Belt cities, Utica underwent an economic downturn beginning in the mid-20th century."

"text": "Charles Grandison Finney (1792-1875)Sources Clergyman and educator Revivals for the Middle Class . Charles Grandison Finney was born the seventh of eight children to a farming family in Litchfield County, Connecticut, in 1792. His parents named him after the model of gentility in the popular novel Sir Charles Grandison (1753) by Samuel Richardson. When he was two, his family joined the tide of migration into western New York, settling in Oneida County, where he attended a district school and probably the Hamilton Oneida Academy. When he was sixteen, the family relocated to remote Jefferson County on the shores of Lake Ontario, where Charles taught district school. In 1812 he returned to Connecticut and then taught district school in New Jersey before returning to western New York in 1818 to study law. There he met the young and energetic Presbyterian minister George W. Gale, whom Finney engaged in closely argued debate until he experienced a transforming conversion in 1821. Scornful of formal theological training, Finney was licensed by the local Saint Lawrence Presbytery and began to inspire revivals in the new towns rapidly developing along the Erie Canal. Combining revival techniques of the itinerant Methodist preachers with blunt language and legalistic argument, from 1825 to 1830 Finney became a regional phenomenon. Wherever he went, he incited intense religious excitement among the entrepreneurs and wage earners along the canal, which had already become one of the most important transportation corridors of the market economy."

The land that eventually became Wisconsin was transferred from British to American control with the 1783 signing of the Treaty of Paris. [ 1] It was an unorganized part of the Northwest Territory until 1802 when all of the land from St. Louis north to the Canadian border was organized as St. Clair County. [ 1] When Illinois was admitted to the union in 1818, Wisconsin became part of the Territory of Michigan and divided into two counties: Brown County in the northeast along Lake Michigan and Crawford County in the southwest along the Mississippi River. [ 1] Iowa County was formed in 1829 from the Crawford County land south of the Wisconsin River. [ 1] Brown County's southern portion was used to form Milwaukee County in 1834. [ 1] The state of Wisconsin was created from Wisconsin Territory on May 29, 1848, with 28 counties. Counties in Wisconsin are governed by county boards, headed by a chairperson. Counties with a population of 500,000 or more must also have a county executive. Smaller counties may have either a county executive or a county administrator. ["

Many Kassenas in this small town Paga are multilingual, speaking their native Kasem and English among other languages. Foundation [ edit]According to legend, Paga was founded c.1400 by a young man called Naveh, who was saved by a crocodile while on a hunting expedition. [ citation needed] He then left his village and settled in the place which is now Paga."

"text": "Posted on August 10, 2012 by Michael Lore Are auto mechanics and technicians entitled to overtime pay? This question lies at the heart of several wage and compensation claims and lawsuits within the automotive service and repair industry. FLSA Overtime, Regular Wage and Minimum Wage Lawsuits The resulting Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) lawsuits seek to address minimum wage, regular wage and overtime claims on behalf of auto mechanics and technicians who are subjected to the often convoluted and confusing payment structures called “flat rate” and “flag rate” systems. Flat Rate, Flag Rate, Piece Rate and Booked Hours Under the flat rate and flag rate systems, the customer is charged a certain number of assigned or “booked” hours per job, regardless of the actual time it takes a mechanic to perform the job. The mechanic is paid a set amount of money for each flagged hour completed. Businesses often believe this piece-rate method of service increases productivity and may also allow them to escape paying overtime. Mechanic Booked Hours vs. Actual Hours Worked How does flat and flag rate payment structures affect a mechanic’s pay? When a mechanic is paid for the hours “booked” this does not take into account the actual hours the mechanic worked. This raises unpaid and overtime wage questions. For instance, the mechanic may spend time cleaning a work station, prepping tools, performing other assigned tasks, and waiting for customers to appear, which is work for which the mechanic is not paid."

The kingdom of Ghana was rich! Ancient Ghana is located in a different place than the modern country of Ghana in West Africa. The ancient kingdom of Ghana was a key part of the Trans-Sahara Trade Route. But even earlier than the trading that went on between east and west Africa, the kingdom of Ghana acted as guards for the traders from the north, and the traders from the south. Ghana was in the middle. Ghana was a great military power in ancient times. They had an army of 200,000 fighting men. People in the north had salt mines. People in the south had gold mines."

These averages, naturally, did not reflect variations in population distribution. For example, while the Northern Region, one of ten administrative regions, showed a density of seventeen persons per square kilometer in 1984, in the same year Greater Accra Region recorded nine times the national average of fifty-two per square kilometer. As was the case in the 1960 and 1970 figures, the greatest concentration of population in 1984 was to the south of the Kwahu Plateau. The highest concentration of habitation continued to be within the Accra-Kumasi-Takoradi triangle, largely because of the economic productivity of the region. In fact, all of the country's mining centers, timber-producing deciduous forests, and cocoa-growing lands lie to the south of the Kwahu Plateau."

"text": "“Nothing so Exhilarating as Being Shot at Without Result”—California Pay Day Statements and Accrued Vacation By James Nelson and Michelle L. Du Charme on October 25, 2016Posted in Compensation, Wage & Hour What does Winston Churchill have to do with California wage and hour requirements? Well, the “shot” at employers in Soto v. Motel 6 Operating L. P. at the California Court of Appeal was whether, because California vacation pay cannot be forfeited and must be paid out at termination, it therefore follows that the value of the accrued vacation needed to be identified on the regularly issued pay day statement. As employers with California employees know, Labor Code Section 226 contains a lengthy list of things that must be identified on the statement issued to employees with their paychecks each pay day. Some other statutes, most notably Labor Code Section 245 (h), require other items to be reported on the pay day statement. California law also provides that vacation time and pay accrue and vest as wages when the work (on which the vacation accrual is based) is performed. Moreover, the accrued but unused vacation must be paid as part of final wages. Ms. Soto’s counsel brought a California Private Attorney General Act (PAGA) claim asserting that the value of the accrued but unused time off was required to be itemized on the payday statement even though not specifically articulated in the statute. The theory was that, if wages must be listed on the statement, then deferred wages like vacation, Paid Time Off (PTO), and other forms of time off compensation were required to be itemized as well by the statute. Besides, the argument continued, without that itemization how would an employee know how much vacation remained in his or her account? The practical problem of employers with California employees was that almost no one reports accrued vacation in that fashion."

About PAGAPAGA provides employees with a private right of action against an employer in order to collect penalties on behalf of the state’s Labor and Workforce Development Agency (LWDA). PAGA requires that 75 percent of any penalties collected be paid to the LWDA, with the remaining 25 percent distributed to the aggrieved employees.

Data were collected at three levels of aggregation in the cocoa bean value chain: village, district, and national level. Multi-stage cluster sampling was employed to sample 120 farmers and 12 purchasing agents of licensed buying companies from 12 villages in Assin Foso, Suhum, Dormaa and Wasa Akropong cocoa districts. Convenience sampling was used to sample key informants from relevant organizations and service providers at district and national levels. The study revealed that, even though quality is important to all categories of actors in the cocoa sector, interactions among them are hampered by problems of information asymmetry that result especially in farmers evading recommended practices. While cocoa sector policies ensure the export of premium quality cocoa, policies have not sufficiently alleviated the information problem especially in the relation between farmers and cocoa purchasing agents. It explains why Ghanaian farms have not been able to reach their full potential to produce more than 1,000,000 metric tons of premium quality cocoa annually. Amongst other options, self-selection policies, such as quality testing with price premiums, are recommended for testing as potential incentive mechanisms that address information asymmetry.

The census was held in four districts, namely, Accra Metropolitan Assembly, Yendi Municipality, Asante Akim South, and Ahanta West District in the Greater Accra, Northern, Ashanti and Western Regions. The reports revealed that in the Accra Metropolis, the private sector employs 74.0 per cent of the total population of 1, 665,086 made up of 800, 935 males and 864,151 females. In the Ahanta West District, the informal sector employs more than 85.0 per cent of the population of 106,215 made of 50,999 males and 55,216 females. The Ashanti Akim South District has a population of 117,245 made of 57, 951 males and 59,294 females of which more than 90 per cent of the population is employed by the private sector while in the Yendi Municipality, 94 per cent of the total population of 117, 780 made up of 58, 905 males and 58, 875 females is employed by the private sector. The report also indicated that all the four districts had a much youthful population, hence the need to intensify the implementation of reproductive health programmes to sustain developmental goals in the districts. The reports also called for efforts to provide basic socio-economic infrastructure such as schools, healthcare centres, water and sanitation facilities and recreational grounds for the growing population. The report said since the private sector is the main employer in the four districts, public-private partnership programmes should be encouraged to create more job opportunities for the teaming youth. It also recommended that government should expand the capacity of three senior high schools in the districts as well as establish new ones to accommodate the growing population of school going age. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) launched the report meant to provide users with the requisite data for evidence-based planning."

"text": "Abstract Background Antenatal care (ANC) is a key strategy to improve maternal and infant health. However, survey data from sub-Saharan Africa indicate that women often only initiate ANC after the first trimester and do not achieve the recommended number of ANC visits. Drawing on qualitative data, this article comparatively explores the factors that influence ANC attendance across four sub-Saharan African sites in three countries (Ghana, Kenya and Malawi) with varying levels of ANC attendance. Methods Data were collected as part of a programme of qualitative research investigating the social and cultural context of malaria in pregnancy. A range of methods was employed interviews, focus groups with diverse respondents and observations in local communities and health facilities. Results Across the sites, women attended ANC at least once. However, their descriptions of ANC were often vague. General ideas about pregnancy care – checking the foetus’ position or monitoring its progress – motivated women to attend ANC; as did, especially in Kenya, obtaining the ANC card to avoid reprimands from health workers. Women’s timing of ANC initiation was influenced by reproductive concerns and pregnancy uncertainties, particularly during the first trimester, and how ANC services responded to this uncertainty; age, parity and the associated implications for pregnancy disclosure; interactions with healthcare workers, particularly messages about timing of ANC; and the cost of ANC, including charges levied for ANC procedures – in spite of policies of free ANC – combined with ideas about the compulsory nature of follow-up appointments. Conclusion In these socially and culturally diverse sites, the findings suggest that ‘supply’ side factors have an important influence on ANC attendance: the design of ANC and particularly how ANC deals with the needs and concerns of women during the first trimester has implications for timing of initiation."

In Accra, the country’s capital, the average house price was GHS315,000 (US$86,957) in mid-2013, about 12% higher than in the rest of Ghana, based on a collection of house prices listed on Tonaton.com . In recent years Ghana has seen a steady stream of other European and American passport holders of African descent arriving at Kotoka International airport, responding to the resource boom and a manufacturing boom. They collect their possessions from shipping containers at Tema port and search for homes in Accra's popular residential areas. They are coming for what seem like the limitless opportunities in what has often been seen as one of Africa's best-run countries. Mercedes and Lexus abound, with designer label clad passengers. The district around the embassies and consulates is awash with the totems of success - giant satellite dishes, gated driveways that stretch into the distance. There are luxury housing estates that would not be incongruous if situated in Beverly Hills. The social elites and expatriates can find all their home comforts and Western goods at prices far in excess of the average Ghanaian's pocket.

"text": "\"4 October 2004 | Feature Article What Is In A Name: Is Ghana An Arabic Word Or A Cursed Name? Ato Aidoo In the last little while various people have expressed their opinions or reservations to the name of our country Ghana. Some like Maulvi Ameer Adam, head of the Ahmidiyya Moslem Mission, is quoted as saying the name Ghana descended from Arabic word Ghinaa that embodies the attributes of gold and great wealth etc. so it is a good name. On the other hand is Prophet Moses Growther who claims … “Dr. Nkrumah brought a curse on the nation when he adopted the name Ghana, which had already been associated with evil spirits from the then, Ghana Empire in Southern Sudan to replace the first name of the land, \"\"Gold Coast. \"\" You know your country is in trouble when people of all shades of opinion and religion begin to ascribe religious connotation to the meaning of your country name. Some juxtapose a mere change of the name or maintenance thereof would bode very well for the prospects of the country. Is the name Ghana our proper name and true reflection of who we are; our heritage, destiny or a misnomer? I hope the following discourse would put the matter to rest. Gold Coast, What Gold Coast?"

John C. Jackson built the road across what is now Jackson Heights in 1859. The Jackson Avenue name is retained by this major road in a short stretch between Queens Plaza and Queens–Midtown Tunnel in Long Island City. [ 5] The place was not particularly high, but the name \"\"heights\"\" showed that the place was originally meant to be exclusive. [ 6] Until 1916, the area was called \"\"Trains Meadow\"\", but contrary to the name, there were very few trains in the area."

Massey was born into an influential Toronto family and was educated in Ontario and England, obtaining a degree in law and befriending future prime minister William Lyon Mackenzie King while studying at the University of Oxford. He was commissioned into the military in 1917 for the remainder of the First World War and, after a brief stint in the Canadian Cabinet, began his diplomatic career, serving in envoys to the United States and United Kingdom. Upon his return to Canada in 1946, Massey headed a royal commission on the arts between 1949 and 1951, which resulted in the Massey Report and subsequently the establishment of the National Library of Canada and the Canada Council of the Arts, amongst other grant-giving agencies. He was in 1952 appointed as governor general by King George VI, on the recommendation of Canadian Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent, to replace the Viscount Alexander of Tunis as viceroy, and he occupied the post until succeeded by Georges Vanier in 1959. Massey was the first Canadian-born individual to serve as Canada's governor general and he proved to be a successful transition for the office away from occupants who had consistently been both members of the peerage and born overseas. On September 16, 1925, Massey was sworn into the King's Privy Council for Canada, [3] giving him the accordant style of The Honourable. However, Massey was later, as a former Governor General of Canada, entitled to be styled for life with the superior form of The Right Honourable."

Specific regulations pertaining to yards, signage, parking and bulk are based in large measure on the former Urban Renewal Plan that successfully guided the transformation of the area since 1971. The corporate park environment is sustained by requiring front and side yards, restricting signage and loading locations, and setting higher parking requirements for certain commercial uses. Street tree planting and landscaping for front yards and parking lots are required for Use Group 17 and 18 uses. All uses must meet M1 performance standards and provide enclosure or screening to minimize impacts upon neighboring uses. Unlike most manufacturing districts, parks and other recreational uses are allowed as-of-right. SPECIAL DOWNTOWN FAR ROCKAWAY DISTRICTZoning Resolution Chapter:136-00Maps: 12a Effective Date: 9/7/17The Special Downtown Far Rockaway District (DFR) was created in 2017 as part of a comprehensive plan to strengthen this commercial area by fostering a vibrant mix of uses on vacant and underutilized sites near mass transit and along the area’s primary corridors. The Special District modifies certain regulations in the underlying districts including floor area ratio, street wall heights and setback depths, maximum building height, location of uses, and accessory off-street parking.

The district’s use regulations encourage mixed use development in denser transit-oriented locations convenient to shoppers and its bulk provisions allow taller buildings with higher floor area ratios at the transit hubs."

Brooklyn (its name as borough of the city of New York; it is also Kings County, a county of the state of New York), the \"\"Borough of Homes and Churches,\"\" is one of the five Boroughs of New York. It used to be and still feels much like a city in its own right, with approximately 2.5 million inhabitants. If separated from the rest of New York City, Brooklyn would be the 4th-most populous American city. Brooklyn is situated on the westernmost point of Long Island and shares a land boundary with Queens, which partially encircles Brooklyn to the north, east and south; Manhattan lies across the East River to the west and north of Brooklyn, and Staten Island is across the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge to the southwest. The borough's East River waterfront offers some of the area's most stunning panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline. Brooklyn is currently enjoying a period of growth and affluence not seen since before World War II. There's world-class theater at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, the center of a proposed new arts district that will include a new art museum and a highly controversial Frank Gehry-designed sports area home for the NBA's Nets."

It is on the eastern end of Lake Ontario, at the beginning of the St. Lawrence River and at the mouth of the Cataraqui River (south end of the Rideau Canal ). The city is midway between Toronto, Ontario and Montreal, Quebec. The Thousand Islands tourist region is nearby to the east. Kingston is nicknamed the \"\"Limestone City\"\" because of the many heritage buildings constructed using local limestone. Growing European exploration in the 17th century and the desire for the Europeans to establish a presence close to local Native occupants to control trade led to the founding of a French trading post and military fort at a site known as \"\"Cataraqui\"\" (generally pronounced \"\"kah-tah-ROCK-way\"\") in 1673. This outpost, called Fort Cataraqui, and later Fort Frontenac, became a focus for settlement. Cataraqui would be renamed Kingston after the British took possession of the fort and Loyalists began settling the region in the 1780s."

The New Orleans cruise port is located near the Crescent City Connection bridge, which crosses the Mississippi River. There are two convenient ways to get to the port. One is by car, and the other is by street car. If you decide to take the New Orleans street car, your booking options for a hotel open up considerably, as the street car connects with Canal Street and runs alongside the French Quarter and through the Garden District. If you're looking to get to the port by cab quickly, the best option is to pick a hotel nearest the port in the Central Business District (also called the Convention Center area ). A taxi can have you to the port in a matter of minutes, and you'll be on your way to the rest of your vacation!Need to book accommodations for a group? Get a custom quote with our Group Request form.

The Chola expedition to Ceylon also finds mention in a record from Tirunagesvaram (No. 197). The two Sanskrit verses with which the inscription opens are unfortunately damaged, but with the help of these and the Tamil portion of the record we can make out that Princess Arinjigai-Piratti the daughter of Arikulakesari (and hence another sister of Sundara-Chola) who was married to a Bana chief, set up an image of (a deity called) Amarasundaradeva in the temple and made provision for offerings and worship to that image. This was very probably in memory of her husband who fell fighting along with the Kodumbalur general Parantakan Siriyavelar on the battle field in Ceylon, since the Sanskrit portion mentions Simhala and refers to some heroic fight which ‘the ornament of the Bali family’, viz., her husband, the Bana chief, put up against his enemies.12. A dynasty of chiefs known as the Paluvettaraiyar figures largely in the inscriptions copied at Kila-Paaluvur and Mela-Paluvur in the Tiruchchirappalli District. They seem to have held positions of power and influence under the Cholas from the time of Parantaka I and to have been related to the royal family by marriage. We find it mentioned in A. R. No."

C3 and C3A districts permit waterfront recreational activities, primarily boating and fishing, in areas along the waterfront that are usually adjacent to residential districts. In addition to facilities for docking, renting, servicing and storing fishing and pleasure boats, permitted activities include aquatic sports equipment sales and rentals, bicycle shops, ice cream stores, and public and private beaches. C3 and C3A districts also permit residences and community facilities. The commercial floor area ratio permitted in C3 districts is 0.5. Commercial buildings may be no more than two stories or 30 feet high, whichever is less. Residential development in C3 districts is governed by R3-2 district regulations; in C3A districts, residential development is governed by R3A regulations which permit only single- and two-family detached residences. In a mixed building, commercial uses may occupy the ground floor only. When commercial overlays are mapped in R1 through R5 districts, the maximum commercial floor area ratio is 1.0; when mapped in R6 through R10 districts, the maximum commercial FAR is 2.0. Unless otherwise indicated, the depth of overlay districts ranges from 100 to 200 feet."

"text": "\"The Rockville Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. Portions of the content on this web page were adapted from a copy of the original nomination document. [ †] Adaptation copyright ©2010, The Gombach Group. Description The Rockville Historic District is located in the northeast section of the Town of Vernon, Connecticut and grew out of the textile industry that developed along the banks of the Hockanum River in the early nineteenth century. The Rockville Historic District consists of approximately 550 acres (.86 square miles) and includes 975 buildings, a structural density of 1.8 buildings per acre. The Rockville Historic District is a physical reflection of the development during the nineteenth century of a small industrial city. Dominated by its textile mill buildings and with the fall of the Hockanum River as its matrix, the City of Rockville (1889-1965) embodied the urban and industrial development patterns associated with the use of water power in manufacturing. From its outlet at Snipsic Lake (also called Shenipsit Lake), the Hockanum River drops more than 254 feet in a series of cascades across a distance of one and one-half miles. It flows from east to west between the hills on both sides, giving the Rockville Historic District a steeply-rolling terrain. There is a total of 51 streets within the Rockville Historic District."

The rise of textile manufacturing in the New South altered the economy and society of the region. The first cotton mill in Greenwood opened in 1890 with 75 workers. When it nearly failed in 1908, James C. Self became president of Greenwood Cotton Mill and built one of the largest privately-held companies in the industry. Abney Mills, based in Greenwood, spread its production plants across the upstate. Greenwood County was formed in 1897 from portions of Abbeville and Edgefield counties, which had originally been part of the old Ninety-Six District."

"text": "Chickamauga, Tennessee, a Short History For more than a century, the large area of Hamilton County which goes by the name of East Brainerd (as opposed to the smaller area formerly called Concord) went by the name of Chickamauga. Even after this part of the county began dividing into smaller communities, as a whole it was called Chickamauga well into the 20 th century. The name Chickamauga dates from the Cherokee occupation of the area, though the word itself is not Cherokee. Though many others have speculated that the word “Chickamauga” (along with “Chattanooga”) is derived from one of the Muscogean languages, James Mooney stated in one of his reports to the Bureau of Ethnology that it is Shawnee. After all, it was a delegation of Shawnee to the Cherokee who recommended the location to the militant Cherokee during the American Revolution in the first place. That location is in the Brainerd Heights-Wrinkletown-Shepherd area from South Chickamauga Creek to the airport. The former community of Chicamacomico in North Carolina and Chicamacomico Creek in Maryland were in areas inhabited by Indians speaking languages from the Algonquian family, to which Shawnee belongs. There is another Chickamauga Creek on the headwaters of the Chattahoochee River in northeast Georgia. In nearby Polk County, Tennessee, is a ford over the Hiwassee River called Savannah Ford, one of the names of the Shawnee. Prehistoric period Even though most people are more familiar with Cherokee occupation of the Hamilton County region because it continued well into written historical times, their residence was comparatively short and arrival very late."

"text": "South Carolina Richland County Columbia Columbia is located in the center of South Carolina at the junctions of Interstates 20, 26 and 77. It is South Carolina's most populated city, the state capital, the county seat of Richland County, the home of the University of South Carolina 's main campus, and the site of the South Carolina State Fair each October. A small part of Columbia also extends into Lexington County. Here is a map of the Columbia area. Columbia was settled by Europeans in the early 1700s and chosen to be the site of the new South Carolina state capital in 1786. It was chartered as a town in 1805 and as a city in 1854. Columbia was named for Christopher Columbus, and it was South Carolina's first planned city (wide streets arranged in a grid pattern) and the second planned city in the United States (Savannah was the first). Despite this, Columbia did not have a single paved street until Main Street was surfaced in 1908.

"text": "Hopkins – Richland County, South Carolina South Carolina | SC Picture Project | Richland County Photos | Hopkins The Richland County town of Hopkins is named for the family of John Hopkins, who received a land grant of 250 acres here in 1764. After acquiring his land, Hopkins established Oldfield Plantation, a name issued by slaves because the plantation house – a simple cabin – was built in an “old field.” Hopkins left his property to his sons, and their descendants still own land in the rural community. When the South Carolina Railroad established a line in the area sometime between 1836 and 1842, the town became known as Hopkins Turnout. A post office opened in the town in 1849. D. S. Brooks of Hopkins, 2010 © Do Not Use Without Written Consent Following the Civil War, many newly-freed slaves and their families bought farmland in Hopkins through the South Carolina Land Commission. The Land Commission was a state government program established in 1868 to finance the redistribution of land to freedmen. Hopkins’ economy suffered terribly in the 1920s as the agricultural market declined, and the town never fully recovered. Hopkins is likely best known in South Carolina for being the location of the Congaree National Park. The Congaree Swamp National Preserve Association formed in the early 1970s to turn the floodplain into a National Park, allowing it to be preserved, maintained, and enjoyed by the public."

[ 1] The county is the site of the Revolutionary War Battle of King's Mountain. Agriculture South Carolina's agricultural weakness was in its soil. Agriculture during the time was often associated with spirituality. Tilling and tending the earth was seen as a sacred trust from God. Many preachers in the Carolinas gave sermons linking the neglect of the soil and the lack of agricultural success, and blaming the farming struggle on a decrease in religiosity. This led to not only an economic crisis, but also a spiritual and mental crisis. Farmers whose land suffered in South Carolina were experiencing a major self-esteem blow because of the alleged connection between agriculture and spirituality. Uncertainties in the cotton marked remained in a dejected state until 1850."

[ 18]Riverton was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on December 18, 1893, from portions of Cinnaminson Township, based on the results of a referendum held six days earlier. Portions of the borough were taken to form Palmyra Township on April 19, 1894. [ 19] The borough's name is derived from The Riverton Improvement Company, which was established after a group of ten purchased a 120-acre (49 ha) that would be the site of a planned community with homes erected for many of the founders along the riverfront. [ 20]It is a dry town, where alcohol cannot be sold. [ 21] [22] The borough's dry status was an early character of the borough, with a clause inserted starting in 1952 by the Riverton Improvement Company into deeds for all properties in the community that prohibited the sale or manufacture of alcoholic beverages. [ 20] [23]The borough is located on the Delaware River and is pedestrian -friendly, with sidewalks, gas lamps, and Victorian architecture."

It is situated on the south-eastern shorelines of the Jacobs River Estuary being formed by the Aparima and Pourakino Rivers, which leads through a narrow outflow channel into Foveaux Strait. [ 1] The main part of the town is on flat land (the Southland Plains) and the northern end of Oreti Beach but South Riverton is built on the hills (the Longwood Range) between the eastern shore of the estuary and Taramea Bay. [ 2]Riverton is the oldest permanent settlement of Southland and one of New Zealand's oldest towns. In 2011 the town's people of Riverton celebrated their 175th anniversary. The main industry is fishing. However farming (esp. dairying) is fast becoming the industry of influence as the fishing slowly dries up. Support services such as transport, irrigation, engineering and various farm related contractors now play an important part in the local economy. The fish factory based on its main wharf has now been converted to a butchery."

"text": "Donations enrich the historical community Apologies for the inactivity here since my computer spontaneously combusted last week. This post by phone is the best I can do for now. In other news, this past week we received two separate offers to donate postcards to the Society. I received a phone call from John Poss in Gastonia, NC, who offered to send us a Dreer’s Nursery shipment postcard dated 1911. It seems that he sometimes obtains postcard collections through his work and he then makes an effort to track down a sender or recipient and sends the item to them. In our case, John saw the name DREER, and when he googled it, the search led him to rivertonhistory.com, arguably the greatest source of information and images on the web for the defunct nursery. This card is a welcome addition to the Society’s collection since it is not one we had seen before. He wrote: John – Great to see this artifact return home – Thanks, John This must be the week for Johns. Riverton resident John Criqui made a special trip to my home today in Delran to pass along five vintage postcards, one of which is a real photo post card, or RPPC, showing Keating’s Drugstore at the intersection of Broad and Main Streets (second photo down on the right). ( Read more about Keating’s Drugstore in this previous post .)"

The city lies in the Salt Lake Valley between the 9,000-foot (2,700 m) peaks of the Oquirrh Mountains and the 12,000-foot (3,700 m) peaks of the Wasatch Mountains and is part of the Salt Lake City metropolitan area. The Jordan River flows through the middle of the valley and the city has a 3.5-mile (5.6 km) section of the Jordan River Parkway that contains fishing ponds, trails, parks and natural habitat. Salt Lake Countyfair grounds and equestrian park, 67-acre (27 ha) Oquirrh Lake and 27 other parks are located inside the city. As of the 2010 Census, its population was 50,418. The city was founded 18 miles (29 km) south of Salt Lake City along the banks of the Jordan River in 1859 by Mormon settlers. An agrarian town for most of its history, today it is a rapidly growing bedroom community of Salt Lake City. Kennecott Land, a land development company, has recently begun construction on the master-planned Daybreak Community for the entire western half of South Jordan. Daybreak could potentially double South Jordan's population."

"text": "Welcome SANGAMON COUNTY WATER RECLAMATION DISTRICT The Sangamon County Water Reclamation District (SCWRD) was organized under the Illinois Sanitary District Act of 1917. It was formed in 1924 and at that time was known as the Springfield Sanitary District. In 1986 the name was changed to the Springfield Metro Sanitary District and the name was subsequently changed to the Sangamon County Water Reclamation District in 2016. Prior to 1929 there were no treatment plants in the area and raw sewage flowed into the various ditches, creeks and rivers in the area. This of course made for some rather unpleasant conditions and placed the drinking water supply at risk. In 1924 a bond referendum was passed to build a collection system and treatment plant. Construction began in June of 1925 and by 1929 the collection system and the Spring Creek plant were operating and treating sewage. As the community has grown, so have the challenges which face the District. The District has met those challenges and continues to grow with the community. In 1973 a second treatment plant, Sugar Creek, was brought on line to serve the needs of the area."

"text": "\"Use Tax and \"\"Local\"\" Use Tax What is use tax? Use tax is a tax imposed on the privilege of using, in Illinois, any item of tangible personal property that is purchased anywhere at retail. Who must pay their own use tax? The tax is imposed on the user of the tangible personal property that is purchased at retail. Do consumers pay their own use tax? In some cases, they do. However, in most instances, registered retailers act as the collectors of this use tax and pay the tax to us when they file their monthly sales tax return. What are some examples of use tax liability? This liability may result whenout-of-state vendors make retail sales to Illinois businesses or consumers;Illinois consumers purchase tangible personal property at retail from out-of-state, unregistered retailers for use in Illinois without paying tax to the retailer; or Illinois businesses withdraw tangible personal property from their sales inventories for their own use. In this instance, at the time the item was purchased, the business did not pay tax to the vendor because it purchased the item for resale purposes."

"text": "\"Lincoln as a Young Lawyer Lincoln Legal Career Timeline Abraham Lincoln enjoyed a successful legal career in Illinois spanning nearly 25 years. Like most lawyers of his time, he did not attend law school. It was customary to study under established lawyers, but he lived in a rural village and taught himself. In 1834 John T. Stuart, a Springfield attorney, encouraged him to study law and lent him the necessary books. Less than three years later Lincoln was admitted to the bar and joined Stuart as a junior partner. He formed two additional partnerships before being elected President. The timeline below shows a brief overview of his career, as well as presidential appointments to the U. S. Supreme Court.

Most counties in Illinois were named after early American leaders, especially of the American Revolutionary War, as well as soldiers from the Battle of Tippecanoe and the War of 1812. Some are named after natural features or counties in other states. Some are named for early Illinois leaders. Two counties are named for Native American tribes, and one bears the name of a plant used as a food source by Native Americans. While it does have a city, Illinois does not have a Lincoln County named after its favorite son, Abraham Lincoln; it does, however, have a Douglas County (founded 1859) named after his political rival Stephen A. Douglas. It also has Calhoun County (founded 1825), named after John C. Calhoun, outspoken for his pro-slavery and pro-southern views in the years preceding the American Civil War. Several of the counties are named after Southerners, reflecting the fact that Illinois was for a short time part of Virginia, and settled in its early years by many Southerners. No counties are named after heroes of the Civil War, mainly because the counties were all named before that war. The state does have a Lee County named after the family of Robert E. Lee, who at one time served in Illinois."

The Illinois catchable trout program is funded entirely by those who use the program through the sale of Inland Trout Stamps. The IDNR stocks more than 80,000 rainbow trout each year in bodies of water where trout fishing is permitted during the fall season. All anglers — including those using fly fishing gear who intend to release fish caught before October 17 — must have a valid fishing license and an Inland Trout Stamp, unless they are under the age of 16, blind or disabled, or are an Illinois resident on leave from active duty in the Armed Forces. The daily catch limit for each angler is five trout. Thank you to Philip Scrivens for sharing this great Rock River trout catch photo from the spring season.

He was followed by a number of other settlers from St. Clair County. The new families encountered Kickapoo and Pottawatomie Indians, but no clashes occurred between them. The village originally was known as Horse Creek, “so named from the fact that the dead body of a man was found on its banks at a very early day in the winter, and the next spring the horse carcass was found upon its banks which the dead man had ridden,” reports A Pictorial Album of Pawnee, Illinois 1854-2004 by Joyce Reynolds, which is in the Sangamon Valley Collection at Lincoln Library. ( The album, which includes the first photo ever of Pawnee, a stereoscopic view that apparently dates from the 1850s, is an exceptionally good photographic history of the community. ) In 1854, however, residents sought to have a post office located there, and postal authorities objected to Horse Creek as a name. Springfield post office employee Charles Keyes suggested the name of “ Pawnee .” “ It was a popular notion in those times to name things after Indian Nations,” according to the Pictorial Album. “ Even though there had never been a Pawnee Indian in Illinois, the Horse Creek community adopted the new name. ”Pawnee’s economy centered on coal mining for virtually all of the 20th century, starting with the Horse Creek Coal Mine, followed by the Victor Coal Co., and finally the Peabody Coal Co. Most Pawnee miners worked first at the Peabody No."

Menard was so popular in his day, with the people of Illinois, that when the Convention framed the Constitution of the State, a clause was included in the schedule to the Constitution providing that might be eligible to the office of Lieutenant Governor.

It was established around the rail corridor of the Main South Line that was planned in the 1860s. The railway first reached the township in 1867. Most of the time, the river can be forded, and the road bridge was not built until 1927. Its successor bridge now carries State Highway 1 traffic, which crosses the railway line in Selwyn; initially, two right angle bends were provided, later to be replaced by a sweeping S-bend.

"text": "Australia & New Zealand Australia Guide Winter in Australia: What to Expect By Larry Rivera Updated 01/03/18Share Pin Email•••Winter in Australia is arguably one of the most pleasant of winters you’ll experience in the world. With temperatures rarely dropping into minus numbers, you’re bound to have a good time!In Australia, our winter begins at the start of June and finishes at the end of August. Winter Weather In the winter season, cooler temperatures are forecast all across the nation. Though snow is uncommon amongst the majority of Australia, snowfall can be found within some select locations. Snowfall occurs within the mountainous terrains of: NSW’s Snowy Mountains, Victoria’s Alpine Region and the mountainous parts of Tasmania. Within the northern tropics of Australia, the weather rarely drops below 24°C. Though most other areas rarely catch a glimpse of the snow, Australian weather can have quite a few dramatic drops during the day so be sure to always keep some extra layers with you in winter. The Central Australian Regions tend to stay relatively warm with temperatures ranging from 18-24°C range. When exploring Australia in winter, be sure to wear a jacket and scarf to deal with the breeze. With southernmost continental areas hitting an average of 12-18°C, Australia is more than bearable in most regions, although you may need a few layers and a beanie to see you through the cooler nights."

Neolithic man mined native copper and used it as a substitute for stone; its malleability enabled easy shaping of tools by beating it. Copper was smelted as early as 3500 BC at Timna in Israel. Its property of alloying with other metals (particularly tin) was discovered about 500 years later and heralded the Bronze Age, which started in southern Europe between 3000 and 2500 BC. Although the manufacture of bronze tools largely fell into disuse with the onset of the Iron Age about 1000 BC, copper continued to be used for its other properties. As one of only two coloured metals, its beauty makes it highly desirable for making ornaments and its resistance to corrosion makes it suitable for use in, or near the sea. The growth of the copper industry has been intimately linked with the increasing use of electricity with electrical applications continuing to be the metal's principal use which can be attributed to two physical properties. It is an excellent electrical (and heat) conductor and is ductile enough to be drawn into wire and beaten into sheets without fracturing. Copper is used widely in plumbing components and is a major component of alloys, many of which are harder, stronger and tougher than their individual constituent elements. Occurrence The main ore mineral of copper in Australia (and worldwide) is chalcopyrite (Cu Fe S2)."

It tells the story of an aspiring actress named Betty Elms (Watts), newly arrived in Los Angeles, who meets and befriends an amnesiac woman (Harring) hiding in an apartment which belongs to Betty's aunt. The story includes several other seemingly unrelated vignettes that eventually interlock, as well as some surreal and darkly comedic scenes and images that relate to the cryptic narrative. Originally conceived as a television pilot, a large portion of the film was shot in 1999 with Lynch's plan to keep it open-ended for a potential series. After viewing Lynch's version, however, television executives rejected it. Lynch then provided an ending to the project, making it a feature film. The half-pilot, half-feature result, along with Lynch's characteristic style, has left the general meaning of the film's events open to interpretation. Lynch has declined to offer an explanation of his intentions for the narrative, leaving audiences, critics, and cast members to speculate on what transpires. He gave the film the tagline \"\"A love story in the city of dreams\"\". [ 4]Categorized as a psychological thriller, the film earned Lynch the Prix de la mise en scène (Best Director Award) at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival, as well as an Academy Award nomination for Best Director."

In 1966, police arrested both Carter and friend John Artis for a triple-homicide committed in the Lafayette Bar and Grill in Paterson, New Jersey. Police stopped Carter's car and brought him and Artis, also in the car, to the scene of the crime. On searching the car, the police found ammunition that fit the weapons used in the murder. [ 2] Police took no fingerprints at the crime scene and lacked the facilities to conduct a paraffin test for gunshot residue. Carter and Artis were tried twice (1967 and 1976) for the murders, and convicted twice; both served time in Rahway State Prison. After the second conviction was overturned in 1985, prosecutors chose not to try the case for a third time. Carter's autobiography, titled The Sixteenth Round, which he wrote while he was in prison, was published in 1975 by Warner Books.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search March 7, 1965: Alabama police attack the Selma-to-Montgomery Marchers on \"\" Bloody Sunday \"\"Police brutality is the abuse of authority by the unwarranted infliction of excessive force by personnel involved in law enforcement while performing their official duties. The term is also applied to abuses by corrections personnel in municipal, state and federal penal facilities including military prisons. While the term police brutality is usually applied in the context of causing physical harm, it may also involve psychological harm through the use of intimidation tactics beyond the scope of officially sanctioned police procedure. [ according to whom?] In the past, those who engaged in police brutality may have acted with the implicit approval of the local legal system, e.g. during the Civil Rights Movement era. In the modern era, individuals who engage in police brutality may do so with the tacit approval of their superiors or they may be rogue officers. In either case, they may perpetrate their actions under color of law and, more often than not, engage in a subsequent cover-up of their illegal activity. The word brutality has several meanings; the sense used here (savage cruelty) was first used in 1633. [ 1] The term police brutality has been in use since at least 1833 when it appeared in the London paper The Poor Man's Guardian. [ 2]Efforts to combat police brutality focus on various aspects of the police subculture, and the aberrant psychology which may manifest itself when individuals are placed in a position of absolute authority over others.

"text": "\"Biography of Ezra Pound Ezra Pound (1885 - 1972)Ezra Pound is generally considered the poet most responsible for defining and promoting a modernist aesthetic in poetry. In the early teens of the twentieth century, he opened a seminal exchange of work and ideas between British and American writers, and was famous for the generosity with which he advanced the work of such major contemporaries as W. B. Yeats, Robert Frost, William Carlos Williams, Marianne Moore, H. D., James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway and especially T. S. Eliot. His own significant contributions to poetry begin with his promulgation of Imagism, a movement in poetry which derived its technique from classical Chinese and Japanese poetry - stressing clarity, precision, and economy of language, and foregoing traditional rhyme and meter in order to, in Pound's words, \"\"compose in the sequence of the musical phrase, not in the sequence of the metronome.\"\" His later work, for nearly fifty years, focused on the encyclopedic epic poem he entitled The Cantos. Ezra Pound was born in Hailey, Idaho, in 1885. He completed two years of college at the University of Pennsylvania and earned a degree from Hamilton College in 1905. After teaching at Wabash College for two years, he travelled abroad to Spain, Italy and London, where, as the literary executor of the scholar Ernest Fenellosa, he became interested in Japanese and Chinese poetry. He married Dorothy Shakespear in 1914 and became London editor of the Little Review in 1917. In 1924, he moved to Italy; during this period of voluntary exile, Pound became involved in Fascist politics, and did not return to the United States until 1945, when he was arrested on charges of treason for broadcasting Fascist propaganda by radio to the United States during the Second World War. In 1946, he was acquitted, but declared mentally ill and committed to St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Washington, D. C. During his confinement, the jury of the Bollingen-Library of Congress Award (which included a number of the most eminent writers of the time) decided to overlook Pound's political career in the interest of recognizing his poetic achievements, and awarded him the prize for the Pisan Cantos (1948)."

The young volcanic regions of southeastern Australia: Early studies, physical volcanology, and eruption risk. Proceedings of the Royal Society of Victoria116 (1):1-13. ISSN 0035- 9211. The young volcanic regions of southeastern Australia are known as the Newer Volcanic Province, which can be divided into four main subprovinces. The Western Plains subprovince and the Mt Gambier subprovince in southeastern South Australia occupy broad plains, while the Western Uplands subprovince is the elevated east-west spine of Western Victoria, with the Great Divide running along its crest. Small areas of youthful volcanism are also found in the Eastern Uplands subprovince. Beginning about 6-7 Ma ago, but mainly since 5 Ma, a new volcanic province formed on both the Uplands and the Plains, and nearly 400 small, monogenetic, scoria cones, maars and lava shields have been built up by Strombolian/Hawaiian eruptions. Fluid basalt flows have spread laterally around vents, often for many tens of kilometres down river valleys. Where the lava flows have blocked drainage, lakes and swamps have formed."

Starting in the late 17th century, French explorers arrived. Spain took over in 1763 and a trading company led by Pierre Laclede and Auguste Chouteau established the settlement of St. Louis in February 1764. It attracted French settlers leaving Illinois when Britain took control east of the Mississippi. The city grew in population due to its location as a trading post on the Mississippi River, as the western fur trade was lucrative. The city played a small role in the American Revolutionary War and became part of the U. S. through the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. With its connection through the Ohio River to the east, the Mississippi to the south and north, and the Missouri to the west, St. Louis was ideally located to become the main base of interregional trade. In the 1840s, it became a destination for massive immigration by Irish and Germans. Some native-born Americans reacted with fear to the newcomers, adopting nativist sentiments."

For the 1754–1790 period, Namier and Brooke estimated the electorate at about 500. The constituency returned two Members of Parliament.

"text": "Tourists and locals walk down the main approach to Shibamata Taishakuten Temple in Katsushika Ward, Tokyo, on May 10. | SATOKO KAWASAKINational | AT A GLANCEShibamata offers a step back into a Tora-san time warpby Satoko Kawasaki Staff Photographer Jun 2, 2015Article history PRINT SHARETokyo’s Shibamata district has preserved much of its townscape, which is reminiscent of old downtown Tokyo. The Katsushika Ward district located in the eastern-most part of Tokyo, a 20-minute train ride from Asakusa Station on the Keisei Line, is perhaps best known as the hometown of Torajiro Kuruma, the hero of the “Otoko wa Tsuraiyo” (“It’s Tough Being a Man”) film franchise starring the late Kiyoshi Atsumi. In fact, walking out of Shibamata Station, you are greeted by a bronze statue of the films’ hero, better known as Tora-san, who became the symbol of the district after director Yoji Yamada’s series grew into a long-running hit. After the first installment was released in 1969, 48 episodes of the series were created until 1995. Each episode of the popular series features a very similar storyline: The goofy hero coming home to the family-run sweets shop after a long time away working as a traveling salesman. He then somehow throws his family into trouble. The simple yet heartwarming episodes caught the heart of Japanese, and the episodes are occasionally aired on TV even today. Shibamata, the key setting of the films, is a town that has grown up around Shibamata Taishakuten, a Buddhist temple, and that dates back to the Edo Period (1603-1868). The 200-meter-long main approach to the temple is lined with wooden shops selling local specialty kusa dango (rice dumplings flavored with mugwort), good-luck charms and mascots, as well as restaurants offering river fish dishes."

I made the assumption that the images are stored as JPEGs and the compression ratio is 15:1. That is a rough average of what my Sony Cyber-shot W80 camera is compressing my photos at. The compression ratio can have a big effect on the size of your photos. It can for example make the difference between your photo being 2MB in size or being 4MB in size. This graph shows the JPEG photo size when using low compression (which I’m defining as 10:1) and high compression (which I’m defining as 20:1)."

In addition to zoning, you may watch for overlay coridors, or other limitations of use, such as prohibiting open storage on industrial zoned lots unless fully fenced with wood, not allowing metal fencing, etc. The list is endless, depending on the creativity and willingness of city staff, and planning and zoning board, to restrict property owners within the governing authority's jurisdiction.

A majority-minority district is one in which a racial or ethnic minority makes up a large-enough share of the electorate to assure that the community has a reasonable chance to elect the candidate of their choice. What about majority-minority districts is problematic? How do you determine that a minority group is sufficiently large or that it stands a reasonable chance of electing its preferred candidate. Some courts have decided to use a \"\"bright line\"\" of 50%. Others would rather use the standard of an \"\"effective majority\"\" which means that the group does not have to meet a specific percentage size, but it does have to be large enough so that it is reasonable to assume that it accounts for outcomes and circumstances (meaning that it is large enough so that it can produce outcomes and stuff).

Braun David J. Braun is an attorney with Miller, Tracy, Braun, Funk & Miller, Ltd. in Champaign and has presented at IASB meetings on numerous legal topics. Teacher evaluations are the key to success under the Illinois Education Reform Act (SB7) — and there is simply no substitute for proper and thorough evaluation. While evaluation used to be a purely administrative function that rarely came before the board except during discipline or dismissal proceedings, evaluations have now become a necessary part of the operation of a school district for a board of education. It is likely that the board will suddenly become much more familiar with evaluations, both because the law requires board input in changes to the evaluation tool, and also because the evaluation will now become critical to many more of the staffing decisions administration must make. If evaluation is not thoroughly completed and reviewed at the beginning of the year, the board may be powerless to RIF (to cut costs) at the end of the year. Review of new RIF rules In addition to many other changes, SB7 changes the way reductions in force (RIFs) are conducted. RIFs (otherwise known as lay-offs, or a reduction in the number of total employees or programs) are no longer done in reverse-seniority order, where the least senior employees would be RIF’d first. Under SB7, teachers with lower evaluation scores will be placed into a grouping that will require them to be RIF’d before better performing teachers. The groupings have default requirements defined by law: Grouping 1 : Each teacher not in contractual continued service who has not received a performance evaluation rating. Grouping 2 : Each teacher with a Needs Improvement or Unsatisfactory performance evaluation rating on either of the teacher’s last two performance evaluations."

It primarily serves as the home venue for the New Orleans Saints of the National Football League (NFL), and is also the home stadium for the Sugar Bowl and New Orleans Bowl in college football. Plans were drawn up in 1967 by the New Orleans modernist architectural firm of Curtis and Davis and the building opened as the Louisiana Superdome in 1975. Its steel frame covers a 13-acre (5.3 ha) expanse and the 273-foot (83 m) dome is made of a lamellar multi-ringed frame and has a diameter of 680 feet (210 m), making it the largest fixed domed structure in the world. [ 7] It is adjacent to the Smoothie King Center. Because of the building's size and location in one of the major tourist destinations of the United States, the Superdome routinely hosts major sporting events, including the Super Bowl, College Football Championship Game, and the Final Four in college basketball. The stadium was also the long-time home of the Tulane Green Wave football team of Tulane University until 2013 (when they returned on-campus at Yulman Stadium) and was the home venue of the New Orleans Jazz of the National Basketball Association (NBA) from 1975 until 1979. The Superdome gained international attention of a different type in 2005 when it housed thousands of people seeking shelter from Hurricane Katrina. The building suffered extensive damage as a result of the storm, and was closed for many months afterward."

[ 10] In addition, Super Bowl XLVII was the first to feature two teams that had undefeated records in previous Super Bowl games (Baltimore, 1–0; San Francisco, 5–0). The 49ers, who posted a regular-season record of 11–4–1, entered the game seeking their sixth Super Bowl win in team history (and first since Super Bowl XXIX at the end of the 1994 season ), which would have tied the Pittsburgh Steelers for the most by a franchise."

The Superdome opened in 1975 and is home to the New Orleans Saints and the Allstate Sugar Bowl. In 2005, it served as shelter for thousands of people in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. It was closed for several months afterwards as a result of the damage that occurred. In 2011, Mercedes-Benz bought the naming rights to the Superdome. It's name was changed from the Louisiana Superdome to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. Super Bowl XLVII was held at the Superdome on February 3, 2013.

It began on March 12, 1987, and ended with the championship game on March 30 in New Orleans, Louisiana. A total of 63 games were played. Indiana, coached by Bob Knight, won the national title with a 74–73 victory in the final game over Syracuse, coached by Jim Boeheim. Keith Smart of Indiana, who hit the game-winner in the final seconds, and intercepted the full court pass at the last second, was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player. The tournament also featured a \"\"Cinderella team\"\" in the Final Four, as Providence College, led by a then-unknown Rick Pitino, made their first Final Four appearance since 1973. This was also the last tournament in which teams were allowed to have home court advantage: Syracuse (2E), De Paul (3MW), Arizona (10W) and UAB (11SE) all opened the tournament playing on their home courts. The 1987 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament was also the first tournament to use the three-point shot.

In the devastating aftermath, the US government abandoned its citizens, intensifying the trauma of the disaster. A blighted house in New Orleans, LA.

Subscribe or renew today!The Keynesian Counterrevolution Mike Beggs Elon Musk Is Not the Future Paris Marx Under Neoliberalism, You Can Be Your Own Tyrannical Boss Meagan Day Pablo Iglesias Thinks There Is an Alternative Pablo Iglesias Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast in 2005, dispersing a city of 500,000, demolishing hundreds of miles of coastline, and causing roughly $81 billion in property damage. It ranks among the worst natural disasters of the twenty-first century, which in only fifteen years has seen such extreme weather events as the 2010 Haitian earthquake, Iran’s Bam earthquake in 2003, and the 2004 tsunami that devastated coastal areas of Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka, and Thailand. But perhaps the most memorable aspect of the Hurricane Katrina disaster is the United States government’s profound failure to protect and serve citizens in the wake of the storm. President George W. Bush’s lethargic response to the hurricane intensified the trauma of the disaster, prolonging suffering and uncertainty for months after the storm. In a striking example of neglect, tens of thousands of storm refugees were left for days in the unimaginable filth of the Louisiana Superdome, a football stadium that had suddenly become a “refuge of last resort” for stranded residents. Bush’s slow and uneven response to the leveling of a predominately black city provoked Kanye West’s famous accusation — “George Bush doesn’t care about black people” — during a televised fundraiser for Katrina victims."

The Saints currently compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member of the league's National Football Conference (NFC) South division. The team was founded by John W. Mecom Jr., David Dixon and the city of New Orleans. The Saints began play in Tulane Stadium in 1967. The name \"\"Saints\"\" is an allusion to November 1 being All Saints Day in the Catholic faith, New Orleans' large Catholic population, and the spiritual \"\" When the Saints Go Marching In \"\", which is strongly associated with New Orleans and often sung by fans at games. The franchise was founded on November 1, 1966. [ 7] The team's primary colors are old gold and black; their logo is a simplified fleur-de-lis. They played their home games in Tulane Stadium through the 1974 NFL season. The following year, they moved to the new Louisiana Superdome (now the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, since Mercedes-Benz has purchased the stadium's naming rights ). [ 8] [9]For most of their first 20 years, the Saints were barely competitive, only getting to .500 twice."

"text": "\"New Orleans Saints Hurricane Katrina as Seen Through the Eyes of the Saints' Biggest Fans Mike Tanier August 19, 2015B/R via Getty Images Hurricane Katrina claimed 1,833 lives, damaged over 1 million homes in the Gulf Coast region and displaced over 1 million families. Many former New Orleans residents still have not returned: The city's population is roughly 20 percent lower than it was before the storm. The impact of the storm is still acutely felt by hundreds of thousands of families 10 years later. But the Saints and the Superdome remain in New Orleans. The Saints played a full schedule in 2005, playing home games in road stadiums, at the Alamodome in San Antonio and at LSU's Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge. The Superdome went from a \"\"refuge of last resort\"\" to a disaster area of its own during the floods that followed the hurricane as 30,000 evacuees survived fetid, overcrowded conditions for days without plumbing or power. The Saints' eventual decision to remain in New Orleans, the NFL 's commitment to rebuilding the Superdome and local fans' dedication to their team in the wake of the disaster galvanized relief efforts, symbolized resilience in the face of tragedy and helped preserve both a city and a culture vital to our national identity. This is the story of Hurricane Katrina as seen through the eyes of people for whom Saints football is a way of life. Bleacher Report spoke to the season ticket holders, the tailgate legends, the broadcasters and the Superdome employees who had their lives turned upside down—yet found comfort, strength and hope from Saints football in the face of a national catastrophe. Before the Storm Hurricane Katrina began as a tropical depression north of Puerto Rico on August 19, 2005."

Michelle Join Essence Festival Lineup And that’s on top of a record year in 2013, featuring closing-night headliner Beyoncé, which saw a 30% increase from the year prior to 543,000 people. Doug Thornton, executive VP of Superdome management company SMG, expects more than 130,000 people to attend the festival each night – that’s more than Coachella or Lollapalooza. With a fourth night added for the first time on Thursday – featuring performances from Nas, Trey Songz, Jazmine Sullivan and K. Michelle — and Prince’s 4th of July headlining set sold out more than a week in advance, expect a weekend full of surprises with musical legends. Other performers throughout the weekend include Saturday-night headliner Mary J. Blige (a 12-time veteran of the Essence stage) and Sunday’s one-two punch of Charlie Wilson and Lionel Richie (“I don’t know how anyone will have any energy left,” jokes Michelle Ebanks, president of Essence Communications. ) The daytime programming at the convention center also brings an A-list lineup of speakers, including Kevin Hart, Steve Harvey and Alicia Keys, the latter of whom appeared on a panel Friday subtitled “Empowering Black Women To End AIDS.”Read on for minute-by-minute highlights from Day 2 of the Essence Festival. 8:20 p.m.: Janelle Monae takes the stage for her second consecutive Main Stage performance, kicking things off appropriately with “Electric Lady” album cut “Givin ‘Em What They Love” – the studio version of which features Prince. No sign of The Purple One on this one, but… 9:05 p.m.: After Monae tears through hits like “Dance Apocalyptic,” “Prime Time” and “Tightrope,” it’s time to pay tribute to her mentor and friend with “Let’s Go Crazy.” And guess who shows up for a guitar solo?"

While the normal standards for numbering tropical depressions in the Atlantic indicate that the old name/number is retained when a depression dissipates and regenerates, satellite data indicated that a second tropical wave combined with Tropical Depression Ten north of Puerto Rico to form a new, much more advanced system, which was then designated as Tropical Depression Twelve. Simultaneously, the trough in the upper troposphere weakened, causing wind shear in the area to relax, thereby allowing the new tropical depression to develop. In a later re-analysis, it was determined that the low-level circulation Ten had completely detached and dissipated, with only the remnant mid-level circulation moving on and merging with the aforementioned second tropical wave. As a result, the criteria for keeping the same name and identity were not met. Wednesday, August 24, 2005 [ edit]Katrina landing on southern Florida Twelve strengthened into Tropical Storm Katrina.

The school, which was called the \"\"Augustinian College of Villanova\"\", opened in 1842. However, the Philadelphia Nativist Riots of 1844 that burned Saint Augustine's Church in Philadelphia caused financial difficulties for the Augustinians, and the college was closed in February 1845. The college reopened in 1846 and graduated its first class in 1847. In March 1848, the governor of Pennsylvania incorporated the school and gave it the power to grant degrees."

Over the last four seasons, Villanova has won more games than any program in America (129-17).

Butler University, Creighton University, and Xavier University also joined the conference on its July 1, 2013 launch date.

"text": "Professionals with Six Sigma Black Belt training are highly sought-after by all types of companies because of their superior understanding of Six Sigma principles and ability to apply that knowledge to improve business function and competitiveness. Many individuals aspire to a highly visible - and highly paid - Six Sigma Black Belt role; however, they must be willing to commit the time and effort to attain that distinction. Not everyone possesses the qualities and drive it takes to become a Six Sigma Black Belt. However, if you have or are willing to develop the necessary skills and knowledge, and if you are prepared to undergo the intensive training required to pass the certification exam, you may have a long and lucrative career ahead of you as a Six Sigma Black Belt. Personal Qualities of a Six Sigma Black Belt Achieving the level of Six Sigma Black Belt will qualify you for many upper-level management roles within a company. However, even the most comprehensive training cannot make up for a lack of natural leadership ability or attention to detail, which are vital to excel in these types of positions. Six Sigma Black Belts should be goal-oriented and possess outstanding management and interpersonal skills. They must be able to set an impeccable example for Green Belts and others within the organization, as well as inspire employees to work together to achieve the company's goals. Six Sigma Black Belt Skills and Training To become a Six Sigma Black Belt, you must complete the appropriate training before you can sit for the certification exam. Training courses in this field are generally open to candidates who have already completed Six Sigma Green Belt certification or coursework, or who have relevant experience in business process management."

Steel brought Tyson together with screenwriter and fellow Greenwich-resident Jeb Stuart, who wrote and directed the film. Steel is listed as an executive producer.\"\" I wonder why Steel has not arranged for a movie on the Duke case that arose in 2006 and have it written to make him a hero instead of a villain!

On the north it is bordered by West Hills, Canoga Park, and Winnetka, and on the south by the Santa Monica mountains. [ 1]Some neighborhoods are in the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains. Running east–west through the community are U. S. Route 101 ( Ventura Freeway) and Ventura Boulevard, whose western terminus is at Valley Circle Boulevard in Woodland Hills. History [ edit]The area was inhabited for approximately 8,000 years by Native Americans of the Fernandeño-Tataviam and Chumash-Venturaño tribes that lived in the Santa Monica Mountains and Simi Hills and close to the Arroyo Calabasas (Calabasas Creek) tributary of the Los Angeles River in present-day Woodland Hills. [ 2] [3] The first Europeans to enter the San Fernando Valley were the Portola Expedition in 1769, exploring ' Alta California ' for Spanish missions and settlements locations. Seeing it from present-day Sepulveda Pass, the oak savanna inspired them to call the area El Valle de Santa Catalina de Bononia de Los Encinos (Valley of St. Catherine of Bononia of the Oaks). [ 4] The Mission San Fernando Rey de España (Mission San Fernando) was established in 1797 and controlled the Valley's land, including future Woodland Hills. [ 5]Ownership of the southern half of the valley, south of present-day Roscoe Boulevard from Toluca Lake to Woodland Hills, by Americans began in the 1860s."

"text": "\"Background The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938) is one of the greatest, most colorful costume dramas, swashbucklers, and romantically-tinged adventure films in film history. After the icy restrictions placed on the film industry following the establishment of the Production Code Administration (Breen Office) in the mid 1930s, Warner Bros. Studios decided to find relief from censorship by bringing about a renaissance of the historical-costume adventure film, with swordplay, sweeping action, and romantic charm. Although its main star had portrayed a similar role in Captain Blood (1935) with the same dynamic director, Michael Curtiz, this film established 29 year-old actor Errol Flynn as a dashing, gallant, romantic, impudent but light-hearted, athletic legendary adventure hero - it is the Errol Flynn picture and the definitive film portraying the Robin Hood legend. [ This was another of the twelve films that Curtiz ultimately directed with Flynn as star. ] Director Michael Curtiz was brought in by studio executives to quickly replace William Keighley when incapacitated by illness, according to Variety , while other sources claimed that Curtiz was chosen to create more engaging, impactful, fast-moving and action-oriented content when Keighley couldn't meet the tight production schedule. Both directors received screen credit for their work. [ William Keighley had previously directed top-billed Flynn in the Warner Bros' costume drama The Prince and the Pauper (1937) a year earlier. ] It expertly tells the story of the heroic Robin and his Sherwood Forest followers, who saved England from royal treachery by scheming nobles during the absence of the crusading and captured-ransomed King Richard the Lion-Hearted. And it tells the fairy-tale romance with nostalgic chivalry, colorful pageantry, simple righteousness triumphant over villainous and evil might, and spectacular action. There were at least six silent era attempts at the story."

The results are fun/hilarious. He is aided in humor by Michael Cera ( Superbad, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World and Juno) voicing wide-eyed Dick Grayson/Robin and funny Zach Galifianakis (the Hangover movies) tearing up Gotham city as The Joker. The gang is crowded into the Batmobile Courtesy of Warner Bros. Do they think the PG film is great for all ages? How much fun did they have recording the voices? Check it out!Will Arnett – Batman/Bruce Wayne Q: Talk about expanding your Batman character for this film. Will: It’s very fun to take an iconic character like Batman and play with the rules that have always been there for him. Keep it consistent in terms of him being good at what he does and having that bravado and machismo but, at the same time, make him a little more flawed and a little bit goofier. That’s the kind of license that we took and it made sense within the LEGO world to be able to do that and we’ve tried to expand on that in this movie and really get down to what makes Batman tick. Batman (Will Arnett) in the Bat Cave Courtesy of Warner Bros. Q: Batman refuses at first to admit he has a relationship with Joker (or anybody)."

"text": "\"Green Bay Packers: Breaking Down Final Roster and Week 1 Starters0 of 11Brett Carlsen/Getty Images The Green Bay Packers roster may not be carved in stone through the end of the 2015-16 season, but thanks to the league deadline for final cuts on Saturday, for the first time this year we now know which players will take the field for Green Bay in Chicago on Saturday. However, don't get attached to the roster that follows, because defensive linemen Datone Jones and Letroy Guion, who are suspended for one and three games, respectively, don't count toward the 53-man roster until they return, the Packers will have to cut two players to make room for them. The Packers do things differently than many other NFL teams, and that's reflected in the roster that follows. Which other NFL teams currently feature two fullbacks and two undrafted rookies on their 53-man rosters? Let's break down the 53-man roster as it currently stands heading into Week 1 after cuts. Starters are listed in bold. Though this isn't technically a depth chart, players are listed in the order they would be expected to appear. Quarterbacks1 of 11Jon Durr/Getty Images Quarterbacks (3): Aaron Rodgers , Scott Tolzien, Brett Hundley There were no surprises regarding the Packers final roster at quarterback, though it was surprising to see such a strong competition between journeyman quarterback Matt Blanchard and rookie Brett Hundley throughout the offseason, even if it was in name only. Hundley, of course, was always going to make the roster as the Packers third signal-caller; Green Bay traded up 19 spots in the 2015 NFL draft to land him, and by the end of the preseason, Hundley made the Packers front office look pretty brilliant for doing so. Take a look at Hundley's stat line for the preseason: 41-of-59 for 570 yards, six touchdowns, one interception and a passer rating of 107.3."

"text": "\"Home » Retirement What Is Annuity Income?by Prisca Rollins; Updated July 27, 2017Annuity income is income that a life insurance company pays for a specified number of years. An annuity is not a life insurance policy; it pays out income while you're alive rather than after you die. If you die before the payout begins or ends, your beneficiary will receive what you paid into the plan--in effect, a death benefit. Income from an annuity is used to provide financial protection against the risk of outliving your income. Annuity income payments are made over a period of time, and you can choose to have them disbursed monthly, annually or at your discretion. Types There are different ways to establish an annuity. You can make one premium payment in one lump sum and have the annuity payments begin immediately after the purchase. A second option is to make one lump sum payment and have the annuity payments begin one or more years after the payment. The third option is to make installment payments over a number of years and have the payouts begin at a predetermined time in the future (usually 10 to 20 years). Reasons for Purchase Some people purchase an annuity because they're concerned that they will outlive their income."

"text": "\"Credit: WWE.com This Sunday's WWE Night of Champions pay-per-view will feature every champion putting their gold up for grabs as well as a handful of nontitle matches. Having been the theme of the event dating back to 2007, it has hosted a handful of monumental moments through the years, including Daniel Bryan's first championship match in 2010 and John Cena's 10th WWE championship win in 2011. This year's installment looks to be no different, presenting a stacked card from top to bottom. Among the matches will be Sting contending for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship for the first time in his career along with John Cena vying for the United States title against Seth Rollins. When all is said and done, which matches from the annual event have the most at stake and will stand the test of time? The New Day vs. The Dudley Boyz Credit: WWE.com After 10 long years, The Dudley Boyz returned to WWE on the August 24 edition of Raw with only one goal on their mind: reclaiming the WWE Tag Team Championship. Upon their arrival, they immediately set their sights on The New Day, who were fresh off regaining the gold the night prior at Summer Slam. As the Brooklyn crowd came unglued, Bubba Ray and D-Von proceeded to dismantle the obnoxious trio by putting group member Xavier Woods through a table. The subsequent week on Raw, The Dudley Boyz earned themselves a shot at the WWE Tag Team Championship at Night of Champions by beating The New Day in nontitle action. The match was made official this past week following New Day's successful title defense against the former champs, The Prime Time Players."

Reply#2pacheight Registered User Posts: 1,168Senior Member03-12-2010 at 4:01 amthat sounds like a football or basketball player meeting. NCAA rules actually apply in those two sports:) So maybe the NCAA wants to lecture athletes on the dos and donts of recruitment...for the benefit of the kid so they don't do something ill-advised like take an envelope of money:) is he a football or basketball player? further, my understanding of NCAA clearinghouse and compliance is that it's pretty simple. An online form I think and I think my D sent some form via regular mail as well, and the school sends transcripts to verify the base line NCAA requirements such a C or better gpa and the corresponding very low SAT score requirement."

( Photo by Evening Standard/Getty Images)by Shelly Schwartz, Contributing History Writer Updated April 14, 2017The longest performing rock band of all time, the Rolling Stones have greatly influenced rock and roll throughout the decades. Beginning as part of the British Rock Invasion of the 1960s, the Rolling Stones quickly became the “bad-boy” band with an image of sex, drugs, and wild behavior. After five decades together, the Rolling Stones have amassed eight #1 singles and ten consecutive gold albums. Dates: 1962 -- Present Also Known As: The Stones Original Members: Mick Jagger - lead vocals, harmonica Keith Richards - guitar, backing vocals Charlie Watts - drums Brian Jones - guitar, harmonica, sitar, backing vocals Ian Stewart - piano Bill Wyman - bass guitar, backing vocals Current Members: Mick Jagger - lead vocals, harmonica Keith Richards – guitar Charlie Watts – drums Ron Wood - bass guitar Overview The Rolling Stones were a British band, begun in the early 1960s, influenced by American rhythm and blues artists such as Little Richard, Chuck Berry, and Fats Domino, as well as jazz musician Miles Davis. However, the Rolling Stones eventually created their own sound by experimenting with instruments and writing rhythm and blues mixed with rock and roll. When the Beatles hit international stardom in 1963, the Rolling Stones were right on their heels. While the Beatles became known as the good-boy band (influencing pop rock), the Rolling Stones became known as the bad-boy band (influencing blues-rock, hard rock, and grunge bands)."

"text": "Arts Howard Rollins Is Dead at 46; Star in TV's 'Heat of the Night'By RALPH BLUMENTHAL DEC. 10, 1996Howard Rollins, an actor who was nominated for an Academy Award in 1981 for his work in the film ''Ragtime'' and was written out of the hit television series ''In the Heat of the Night'' in 1993 because of drug problems, died on Sunday at St. Luke's Hospital in Manhattan. He was 46. A hospital spokeswoman, Sandra Salisbury, said that Mr. Rollins was admitted on Saturday but that his family had asked that no information be given out on the cause of death. Larry Bloustein, a spokesman for the William Morris Agency in Beverly Hills, Calif., which represented Mr. Rollins, also declined to provide any information about the death. The New York City Medical Examiner's office said the case had not been reported for inquiry, suggesting that Mr. Rollins's death was not unexpected or suspicious. '' In The Heat of the Night,'' in which Mr. Rollins played a black chief of detectives, Virgil Tibbs, working with a white Southern sheriff, played by Carroll O'Connor, was based on the 1967 movie with Rod Steiger and Sidney Poitier. The series was broadcast by NBC from 1988 to 1992, when it was picked up by CBS. Mr. Rollins was replaced in the script by Carl Weathers in 1993, and the series ran another year. Reruns are being shown on the cable television by TNT."

"text": "\"What the MLB committee will find Apr 19, 2013Tim Keown ESPN Senior Writer Facebook Twitter Facebook Messenger Pinterest Emailprintcomment The decline in African-American participation in baseball has become an annual parlor game. It works like this: Everybody on the field dresses up in No. 42 jerseys while baseball's cognoscenti stroke their collective chin and ponder why so few people on the field look like Jackie Robinson. Major League Baseball has decided to address the issue with more than a furrowed brow. In fact, Bud Selig has decided the issue is serious enough to assemble a committee to address it. That's the good news, and the bad news. The idea is noble, and necessary. Since 1986, the percentage of African-Americans in the big leagues has dropped more than half, from 19 percent to 8.5. But Selig needs to make sure his committee digs below the surface cultural factors that always dominate this conversation. I can't help but feel a bureaucratic, Olympian approach -- in other words, a committee of the esteemed -- is destined to address the symptoms and not the cause."

"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.
