Chinchillas Scientific classification Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Mammalia Order: Rodentia Family: Chinchillidae Genus: Chinchilla Bennett, 1829Species [1] [2]Chinchilla lanigera Chinchilla chinchilla Range of Chinchilla lanigera and Chinchilla chinchilla . Chinchilla chinchilla Chinchilla lanigera There are two species of chinchillas, crepuscular rodents of the parvorder Caviomorpha that are slightly larger and more robust than ground squirrels. They are native to the Andes mountains in South America [3] and live in colonies called \"\" herds \"\" at high elevations up to 4,270 m (14,000 ft). Historically, chinchillas lived in an area that included parts of Bolivia, Peru, Argentina, and Chile, but today, colonies in the wild are known only in Chile. [ 4] Along with their relatives, viscachas, they make up the family Chinchillidae. There are also the related species of the chinchilla rat. The chinchilla has the densest fur of all mammals that live on land. In the water, the sea otter has a denser coat. [ 5] The chinchilla is named after the Chincha people of the Andes, who once wore its dense, velvet-like fur. ["

"text": "Chinchillas maintain their soft, thick, luxuriant fur by bathing in volcanic ash!“Where I live”Chinchillas are native to western South America. They live on the rocky slopes of the Andes Mountains at elevations between 9 and 15 thousand feet. The land is arid, with sparse vegetation and plenty of rock cover. Chinchillas were once common along the entire western coastline of South America, but are now limited mainly to the countries of Bolivia, Peru, and Chile. This species of Chinchilla is featured in The Maryland Zoo’s Animal Embassy collection. Zoo educators introduce the chinchilla and other Animal Ambassadors to audiences in education programs on and off grounds. “How I live there”Chinchillas are well adapted to their cool and arid montane habitat. Their fur is extremely dense – 80 hairs per follicle, on average, as compared to one hair per follicle for humans – and keeps them well insulated from the cold. Their long, strong hind legs propel them across the rocky terrain in search of food – and away from predators! Their large eyes and ears are well suited for nighttime vision and hearing."

I have been hammering on about the importance of grass and hay for over a decade. Grass, herbs, cereal grasses and forage seeds are readily available, so there is no excuse not to feed your rabbit or guinea pig a healthy diet. History & Background The history of rabbit and other small animal foods food is interesting. They were originally bred to be eaten, and/or for their pelts. Rabbits were kept in outside walled warrens where they lived a healthy life not too different from their wild cousins. Guinea pigs in South America are kept to this day in rural kitchens where they are fed household vegetable scraps and native grasses or wild plants Commercial rabbit diets available today evolved from three main sources. The first is the pellet producing industry that had originally designed their pellets for fattening up meat or fur rabbits prior to being slaughtered. The second source is the industry that produced compound pelleted feed for laboratory animals and the third, most common today, the agricultural feed companies looking to diversify and find new markets for their mixed feeds. Wild Diet Rabbits and guinea pigs are obligate herbivores."

Strictly speaking, they would more likely be considered livestock, but they are friendly, social, calm and easily trained. Many times, llama ownership arises from a case of \"\"love at first sight.\"\" Of course, they are not for everyone, and given their size and needs, are only appropriate for those with enough room to house them, and they should not be kept singly. Characteristics Llamas are social animals. If properly socialized, they can make a very calm, gentle companion. They have a reputation for spitting, but this is more typical between llamas and usually not directed at people (unless poorly socialized). They also make a variety of sounds. Lifespan estimates range from 15 to 30 years. They are not small animals, weighing in at 250 to 450 lb.,"

Common conditions of pet chinchillas include bite wounds, respiratory diseases, overgrown teeth, diarrhea, skin problems and heat stroke. What are the signs of these diseases? Bite wounds are common in chinchillas that are housed with other chinchillas. They can also occur as a result of an attack by the household cat or dog. Because of their dense fur, skin wounds are often missed. Dog bites can be fatal to chinchillas due to the difference in the size of the pets (a large dog can quickly kill a chinchilla). Bites by other chinchillas, dogs, and cats are often infected with various bacteria, especially Pasteurella multocida. If left untreated, the infection in the wound can easily spread throughout the body. Respiratory diseases are often seen in pet chinchillas."

"text": "\"BREEDING CHINCHILLASSexual Maturity Age Chinchillas can reach sexual maturity as young as 4 – 5 months of age. However, females should not be exposed to a breeding situation until they are at least one year plus and you are confident that they have reached full size. There are major risks associated with pregnancy and birth in immature animals (it can easily lead to the death of the female and/or the litter). The Mating Process A healthy female will come into season every month, although she will not necessarily mate when this happens. It is quite normal for it to take a number of months before she will accept the male and in rare cases you will find a female that refuses to breed with a particular male (you may need to try 2 or 3 males before you find one they like!). When she does come into season the male will try to mount her and is normally ready before she is. If, as a result of this, serious aggression develops between them (usually the female being the more aggressive as she tries to stop the male), in a non polygamous breeding system the male may need to be removed for 24 - 48 hours hours or a hideaway provided. It may take 3 - 4 days for the mating to take place or it does not happen. The genitals of the female sometimes become reddened when she is in season. Breeding activity can seem frantic at times, although many breed with the minimum of fuss and owners are not aware of it until well into the pregnancy or by the birth of a litter (surprise litters are not uncommon even amongst experienced breeders especially when there is only one kit!)."

"text": "\"Origin, Kinship and Life in the Wild Degus are a quite young “pet-species” as they were introduced to households as pets in the 1980s. Now they are rapidly growing in popularity. When they were first discovered scientifically in the middle of the 18th century they were thought to be members of the squirrel family. In fact their pattern of life shows similarities such as hoarding food supplies. Now the degu is a member of the family Octodontidae which comprises some other rodents from South America as well. To be accurate, this family contains 9 species placed in 6 genera. Members are found in Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina, occupying habitats ranging from coastal scrub at sea level to barren rocky outcrops at around 3500 m elevation. Degus live in Chile inhabiting different areas and are often seen as pests since they often more or less destroy crops and plantations. Degus in the wild will live in groups of about 5 to 10 animals. You will find more information following this link: http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/information/Octodon_degus.html In the wild, degus build complex burrows that provide shelter during the night and in cases of danger."

There are eight different genera in the family classified as rabbits, including our now domesticated version of the European rabbit ( Oryctolagus cuniculus ). Variety is the 'spice' of life. Divided Domestication In the 19th Century, before the rabbit became an exhibition type, rural communities divided rabbits into four classifications: Sweethearts - were sleek, well-fed, well-housed, living a life of ease, eating and getting fat, ready for the table. Warreners - inhabited a sandy warren where burrows honeycombed the earth and afforded a rich spoil for poachers and other predators. Parkers - were found on gentlemen's estates, where they were protected within the boundries of the park. Hedgehogs - (not the prickly ones) lived in holes in banks and all sorts of out-of-the-way places, like chalk-pits. They wandered about, unsettled, and were the 'gypsies' of their kind. Types of Rabbit - Leporidae Family The Wild Order The Wild Order of Things All types of rabbits originate from the wild ones, from the family called Leporidae, which can be broken down in to different genus types: Genus Pentalagus Amami Rabbit/Ryūkyū Rabbit, Pentalagus furnessi Genus Bunolagus Bushman Rabbit, Bunolagus monticularis Genus Nesolagus Sumatran Striped Rabbit, Nesolagus netscheri Annamite Striped Rabbit, Nesolagus timminsi Genus Romerolagus Volcano Rabbit, Romerolagus diazi Genus Brachylagus Pygmy Rabbit, Brachylagus idahoensis Genus Sylvilagus Forest Rabbit, Sylvilagus brasiliensis Dice's Cottontail, Sylvilagus dicei Brush Rabbit, Sylvilagus bachmani San Jose Brush Rabbit, Sylvilagus mansuetus Swamp Rabbit, Sylvilagus aquaticus Marsh Rabbit, Sylvilagus palustris Eastern Cottontail, Sylvilagus floridanus New England Cottontail, Sylvilagus transitionalis Mountain Cottontail, Sylvilagus nuttallii Desert Cottontail, Sylvilagus audubonii Omilteme Cottontail, Sylvilagus insonus Mexican Cottontail, Sylvilagus cunicularis Tres Marias Rabbit, Sylvilagus graysoni Genus Oryctolagus European Rabbit, Oryctolagus cuniculus Genus Poelagus Central African Rabbit, Poelagus marjorita Simple Sylvilagus Each breed of domestic rabbit comes in its 'infinite variety' with variations of colours, coat, textures, sizes, ear types etc. But by comparison, the wild rabbit remains the same - flat coated, fairly small with agouti colours, a mixture of blue, black and yellow."

The Chincha were known for wearing the soft, velvety fur of the chinchilla. Chinchilla fur is extremely soft because each hair follicle sprouts about 60 hairs. For more than a hundred years now, wild chinchillas have been rare. Too many people have hunted them for their fur to make coats and other clothing. To make one full-length coat of chinchilla fur, as many as 150 pelts are needed because chinchillas are fairly small. Overhunting led to the extinction of one species of chinchilla and drastically reduced the population of the remaining species. Today, it's illegal to hunt wild chinchillas, but illegal hunting still occurs. The remaining species of wild chinchillas remain close to extinction."

Their habitat used to stretch across Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina. And as you might imagine, this mountain terrain is barren, full of thorny shrubs, and made up of large rocks with various gaps and crevices. Water is scarce, humidity is low, and it rarely rains so wild chinchillas must rely on morning dew for a drink. Some cacti and the cacti fruit they feed on also provide some water. Their quest for food starts at dusk and continues through to the early morning. When the sun rises, wild chinchillas retreat to their underground dens. These dens are often in and around the cardon plant, but sometimes also in and around rocks."

Jimi died in 1970 after he choked on his own vomit. He had taken 9 pills of the barbiturate vesperax. He was entirely self-taught on guitar. He could not read music, instead he communicated his musical visions through colors: \"\"Some feelings make you think of different colors, jealousy is purple; I'm purple with rage or purple with anger, and green with envy...\"\" (thanks, Jayson - Atlanta, GA)His father Al controlled Jimi's estate and even ran a museum dedicated to Jimi out of his home in Seattle. When he died in 2002, he left the estate to his daughter Janie, who he adopted in 1966. His son (and Jimi's brother) Leon, has fought for control of the estate, but has been unsuccessful. Leon is also a musician, but he never did very well and was plagued by a drug problem. The cover of Electric Ladyland featured 19 naked women pulled from English pubs. Hendrix did not like the cover because he felt it detracted from the music."

"text": "\"Food History Exploring Southern Food What Defines Authentic Soul Food? If You're Thinking Ham Hocks and Hush Puppies, You're on the Right Track By Andrea Lynn Updated 09/21/17Share Pin Email Iain Bagwell/Photolibrary/Getty Images The Name The term “soul food” didn’t become common until the 1960s. With the rise of the civil rights and black nationalist movements during the 1960s, many African-Americans sought to re-claim their part of the American cultural legacy. As terms like “soul brother,” “soul sister” and “soul music” were taking hold, it was only natural that the term “soul food” would be used to describe the recipes that African-Americans had been cooking for generations. The term may have first been used in 1962 by civil rights activist and poet Amiri Baraka. Sylvia Woods opened her now-famous Harlem restaurant Sylvia’s in that same year; today, Woods is known by many as “the queen of Soul Food.” Soul food restaurants and cookbooks continued to be popular through the ’70s. The Food Soul food is basic, down-home cooking with its roots in the rural South. The staples of soul food cooking are beans, greens, cornmeal (used in cornbread, hush puppies and johnnycakes and as a coating for fried fish) and pork. Pork has an almost limitless number of uses in soul food."

She was a woman of color and sometimes the color was tawny, and sometimes it was caramel, and sometimes it was the particular brown you might have made by stirring butter into molasses and warming them over a flame -- it was famous, this color, the color of Dorothy Dandridge's skin. It was famous and she was famous, a star of the motion pictures, a woman who carried furs and rode in limousines and sat for photographers in canvas chairs with her name imprinted in large block letters across the back. In the magazines she was the Curvaceous Miss Dandridge, the Seductive Miss Dandridge, the Sepia Beauty of the American Screen. She wore a low-necked golden gown on the cover of Der Stern, and a low-necked silver gown on the cover of the London Sunday News magazine, and on the cover of Paris Match she was bare-shouldered and gazing straight into the camera with a single heart-shaped topaz resting in the boned bronze cleavage at the base of her throat. When she stood before the television cameras for the 1954 Academy Awards simulcast from Los Angeles and New York, she was headlining that week at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York. She was the first black entertainer to do that, front room at the Waldorf, and she was the first black woman ever nominated for a Best Actress award, and she had been asked also to present an Academy Award herself, the Oscar for best editing.

It is traditional on New Year's Day for the Pennsylvania Dutch. They make a large sausage with it by stuffing it with sausage meat, onion and chopped potato, then baking or braising it. When using Pork Maw as a case for a large, stuffed sausage as it is in Pennsylvania, you soak it first in water overnight. In Malaysia, Pork Maw is stuffed with chile and deep fried.

Y., Music Festival and embarked upon an uninterrupted set lasting nearly two hours--one of the longest performances of his career. It concluded with a long medley that included the solo performance of the Star Spangled Banner that would become emblematic not only of Woodstock, but of the 1960s themselves. When most people think of Hendrix and Woodstock, it is that performance of the national anthem that comes to mind. But to Joel Brattin, professor of literature at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), who has made an extensive study of the life and music of Hendrix, the Woodstock performance was a fascinating and telling moment in an all-too-brief career, one that was in a state of transition in the summer of '69. Brattin, who is also a noted authority on Victorian author Charles Dickens, says there are 10 elements of that performance that make it unique and historic: Hendrix performed with a temporary band. The Jimi Hendrix Experience, with which he had recorded three smash albums and electrified crowds at the Monterey Pop Festival two summers before, had broken up. Hendrix assembled a group he called Gypsy Suns and Rainbows, which included two musicians he had played with at the start of his career on the Chitlin' Circuit in Nashville: bassist Billy Cox and guitarist Larry Lee. Neither had ever performed in front of a large crowd before. Drummer Mitch Mitchell, who was part of the Experience, and two percussionists rounded out the band, one of the largest Hendrix ever appeared with. The group performed just twice more before disbanding."

Tyler Perry Studios, which opened in Atlanta in 2008, is the first major film studio in the nation to be owned by an African American. Perry is best known for his signature character, Madea, whom he has portrayed in both stage plays and films. Early Career Emmitt Tyler Perry Perry Jr. was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, on September 14, 1969, to Maxine and Emmitt Perry. He changed his first name to Tyler at age sixteen to dissociate himself from his abusive father. Perry grew up in poverty and did not complete high school, although he did later earn his General Education Development (GED) degree. As a young adult he drifted from job to job for several years. Then in 1992, while watching Oprah Winfrey's daily talk show, Perry heard the advice that he credits with turning around his career and life. Winfrey told her audience that writing down one's life experiences could be therapeutic. Taking her words to heart, Perry began to keep a diary, which inspired his first play, I Know I've Been Changed."

"text": "\"Jimi Hendrix Facts Jimi Hendrix Quotes Jimi Hendrix (1942-1970) is perhaps the most innovative electric guitarist of all time, combining blues, hard rock, modern jazz, and soul into his own unmistakable sound. In the few years between his emergence as a solo artist and his death from a barbiturate overdose at the height of his fame, Jimi Hendrix wrought a slew of radical changes on pop music. Arguably the most innovative electric guitarist of all time, he combined the raw passion of the blues, the sonic aggression of hard rock, the aural adventure of psychedelia and modern jazz, and the symphonic lyricism of progressive soul, melding these disparate inclinations into a style that, even when heard in fragments, remains unmistakably his own. Had his instrumental prowess been his only contribution, Hendrix would remain a towering figure in modern music. But he was also a supremely gifted songwriter, as the myriad cover versions of his songs by such diverse artists as Eric Clapton, the Pretenders, Frank Zappa, Rickie Lee Jones, Living Colour, The Cure, jazz composer Gil Evans, and many others attest. When funk pioneer George Clinton was asked by a Rolling Stone interviewer how Hendrix had influenced Clinton's band Funkadelic, he responded, \"\"He was it. He took noise to church. \"\" At the time of his death, Hendrix was working desperately on an ambitious project that seemed designed to bridge a dazzling array of musical territories. Though he never completed that record, he did lay the groundwork for a range of bold stylistic hybrids, and he continues to influence those who hear his work. \"\" Hendrix left an indelible, fiercely individual mark on popular music,\"\" wrote David Fricke in Rolling Stone, \"\"accelerating rock's already dynamic rate of change in the late 1960s with his revolutionary synthesis of guitar violence, improvisational nerve, spacey melodic reveries and a confessional intensity born of the blues.\"\""

There's a longstanding cliche that only the music business needs genre names – everyone else either likes it or they don't. That is, of course, bunk, as anyone who's heard enough people trot out lines such as \"\"I like all music except for rap and country\"\" is aware. Not least because quite a lot of those genre names come from the artists themselves. Gospel, for example, was more or less invented by Rev Thomas A Dorsey. As Georgia Tom, Dorsey played jazz and blues piano before turning to the Bible for inspiration in 1932 and selling songs such as Precious Lord, Take My Hand to churches in Chicago, then across America.

But as always, Janelle is not ready to talk about music just yet. She’d rather talk about her past and how those fertile powerful experiences forced her to create her coming album The Electric Lady . According to Monáe, “I went back to Kansas City after my tour for my debut album The Arch Android . And when I looked around me, I decided I wanted to make a raw, revealing album all about my life and the things I’d experienced in my community— about the laughter in the parks, the jams bumping in the cars, the jokes told over kitchen tables, all the life and warmth and struggles I felt there. But I also wanted to figure out how to take Kansas City to the future…like a surreal Parliament album with lyrics by Octavia Butler and album art by Salvador Dali. ”As time passed, Monáe found herself increasingly drawn to the stories and experiences of the strong women in her life, and their ability to electrify and inspire individuals to do the right thing. “ At some point I realized that the true heart and glue of the community were the women. My mama and grandmamma and my aunties and who to this day, are some of the most powerful beings on the planet. Under their guidance, I went from cleaning houses everyday in my maid outfit to the world-traveling performer I am today."

"text": "music April 21, 2016 1:32 p.m. Questlove’s Weeklong Master Class on the Gospel of Prince By TouréShare Tweet Share Email View Slideshow Photo: Robert Whitman Editor's note: This piece originally ran in March 2013. Questlove is in a large dressing room backstage at Carnegie Hall, getting his Afro picked out before going onstage to lead a concert honoring the music of his all-time favorite recording artist, Prince. His mother is sitting beside him, beaming at her boy. Back when Quest, now the Roots drummer and Jimmy Fallon bandleader, was a teenager, she and his father only listened to Christian radio and behaved like “the black Ned and Maude Flanders,” he writes in his upcoming memoir, Mo’ Meta Blues: The World According to Questlove. When she found Prince records in his room, she would throw them out. “ When Prince’s 1999 came out,” he writes, “it touched off a saga that lasted half a decade. I would say, conservatively, that I purchased that record eight times between 1982, when it first came out, and 1987, when I stopped getting on punishment for having it. ”The Carnegie Hall concert falls in the middle of a sort of ad hoc Prince festival in Questlove’s life. He hosted Prince March 1 on Fallon for a performance of “Screwdriver,” one of several great new songs (Prince may be preparing the release of a new album, and has also sent a new theme to his friend Tamron Hall’s MSNBC News Nation ). Then, the following Wednesday, came a dress rehearsal for the Carnegie show at City Winery, which felt like a full-on concert in an unlikely space, with almost everybody scheduled for the Carnegie show hanging backstage, swapping Prince stories as Quest sat behind the drum kit as bandleader."

They have a strong smell. In order for one to like them, you have to acquire a taste for them. You either like it or you don't. If you prepare it correctly, they can be sooo GOOD! Cracklins are pig skins (AKA pork rinds) that are deep fried or baked to a dry crisp like a chip/snack. They don't have as much of a smell like chitterlings."

"text": "Side Effects of Choline and Inositolby SKYLER WHITE Aug. 14, 2017Choline, which is a component of a neurotransmitter, and inositol, which is a form of niacin, are dietary supplements that may encourage brain, cardiovascular and nerve function. In combination, they theoretically convert to acetylcholine -- a compound imperative in transferring electrical synapses through the nervous system, according to the U. S. Food and Drug Administration. A choline and inositol combo may also promote a healthy liver. Because of the nature of this product, you should always consult your physician before using, as it is not without risks. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Nausea, Vomiting and Appetite Loss Inositol is part of the vitamin B family and may cause you to feel nauseous, leading to vomiting and appetite loss. Generally these effects are due to the introduction of the supplement and may diminish over time. High doses of inositol, exceeding 400 mg, and choline, exceeding 500 mg, may also lead to these side effects. Since inositol is a type of niacin, you may also experience redness of your skin and sweating -- a common effect of this B vitamin. Body Odor Consuming a high amount of choline may cause you to have a fishy body odor, according to the Linus Pauling Institute. Taking an excess of 10 to 16 g a day can cause this undesirable effect and also cause you to sweat and salivate profusely."

B-6 and B-12 are both present in food sources such as meat, milk and cheese. Supplements containing B vitamins are generally considered safe as long as they're taken at the dosage recommended by a physician. Each B vitamin helps to convert food into energy, in addition to having its own unique functions in the human body. However, some V-complex vitamins -- including B-6 and B-12 -- also work together to maintain your health, so taking them together in supplements might offer some advantages. Importance of Vitamin B-6Vitamin B-6 is also known as pyridoxine, and it comes in three forms, pyridoxal, pyridoxine and pyridoxamine. Pyridoxal is the most active in human metabolism, where it helps 100 different enzymes in the human body to function properly."

These receptors play major roles in the function of the body. In brain, evidence suggests a role for muscarinic receptors in memory function (28, 71) and in the pathophysiology of affective illness (46, 47, 79) and schizophrenia (24, 50, 85, 86). Because of their putative role in cognitive function, muscarinic receptors have been a focus of research in Alzheimer's disease (see Experimental Therapeutics ). Researchers defined the two classes of cholinergic receptors early in this century on the basis of tissue responses to certain agonists and antagonists (22). A response caused by muscarine, an alkaloid derived from a poisonous mushroom ( Amanita muscaria ), and antagonism of a response caused by atropine, an alkaloid from the deadly nightshade ( Atropa belladonna —a favorite of poisoners in past centuries), defined muscarinic receptors in a tissue. On the other hand, response to nicotine and blockade by d -tubocurarine (one of the alkaloids from the South American arrow poisons) defined nicotinic receptors. These definitions for the two types of cholinergic receptors are still used today. Muscarinic receptors are widely distributed throughout the body. They mediate various types of responses in many different tissues—such as cardiac tissue, smooth muscle, and exocrine glands—and in cells throughout the peripheral and central nervous system."

Specifically, this nutrient is important for maintaining the structure of your cells, transmitting nerve signals that aid in memory and muscle control, and breaking down fats. Your body can produce small amounts of choline, but you must obtain choline from dietary sources in order to receive sufficient amounts. The majority of choline is found within phospholipids, or fat molecules, called phosphatidylcholine, or lecithin. According to the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University, the adequate intake for choline is 425 mg per day for adult females. Many of the foods you eat may be a source of choline. Dairy And Eggs Most of the choline you consume in food is in the form of phosphatidylinecholine, which is available in dairy products and eggs. One cup of skim milk contains 38 mg of choline, while one large egg contains 126 mg."

Lecithin is a substance that belongs to a category of fat-soluble substances called phospholipids, which are essential parts of cellular membranes. Lecithin is produced by the liver, and is needed by the body to not only create cell membranes, but to transport nutrients into out of cells and keep the membranes permeable; without lecithin, the membranes would harden and eventually stop functioning. Lecithin is composed mostly of phosphoric acid, choline, linoleic acid, inositol, and several B vitamins. The choline in lecithin is used to make acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that is necessary for the brain to function normally, especially in infants. In addition to its natural uses, lecithin is used commercially for items that require emulsifiers (substances that blend fats with water). It acts as a protective covering for many substances, and helps keep items in certain processed foods from separating. Studies have shown that lecithin may be useful in treating a range of neurological disorders, ranging from multiple sclerosis to memory loss. Animal studies have shown that female rats given lecithin have produced offspring with superior memory and learning skills. ("

"text": "\"The Truth About Vitamins in Nutritional Supplements Robert Thiel, Ph. D., Naturopath Abstract: Even though natural health professionals agree that humans should not try to consume petroleum derivatives or hydrogenated sugars, most seem to overlook this fact when vitamin supplementation is involved. This paper explains some of the biochemical reasons that food vitamins are superior for humans. It also explains what substances are commonly used to make vitamins in supplements. Furthermore, it explains some of the advantages of food vitamins over the non-food vitamins that are commonly available. Introduction For decades the ‘natural’ health industry has been touting thousands of vitamin supplements. The truth is that most vitamins in supplements are made or processed with petroleum derivatives or hydrogenated sugars [1-5]. Even though they are often called natural, most non-food vitamins are isolated substances which are crystalline in structure [1]. Vitamins naturally in food are not crystalline and never isolated. Vitamins found in any real food are chemically and structurally different from those commonly found in ‘natural vitamin’ formulas. Since they are different, naturopaths should consider non-food vitamins as vitamin analogues (imitations) and not actually vitamins. The standards of naturopathy agreed to in 1947 (at the Golden Jubilee Congress) included the statements, “Naturopathy does not make use of synthetic or inorganic vitamins... Naturopathy makes use of the healing properties of...natural foods, organic vitamins” [5]. Even back in the 1940s, professionals interested in natural health recognized the value of food, over non-food, vitamins."

If a person does not change his diet and continues to avoid eating healthy foods, he will not be able to lose weight. Healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables contain vitamins and minerals that can help a person lose weight more quickly and effectively. According to Dr. Pamela W.

Vitamin B, Choline, and Chromium are some of the vitamins that Dr. Smith recommends to people who are trying to lose weight. Vitamin BOne of the best vitamins for weight loss is vitamin B. Vitamin B is a group of eleven vitamins that work together. Some of the B vitamins that aid in weight loss are B6 (pyridoxine), B5 (pantothenic acid), and B2 (riboflavin). Vitamin B6 helps the pancreas produce enzymes that aid in digestion. Proper digestion will make one feel full longer, thus resulting in weight loss. Vitamin B5 also aids in digestion and helps break down fat and carbohydrates, thus giving more energy and boosting one's metabolism, which also helps in weight loss."

It truly is its own life form being part vegetable, animal, and bacterial in nature. It is this ability to adapt and change form, or shape shift, that causes it to be so hard to eradicate from the human body. Once we understand its composition, then we can successfully treat it by natural methods that it has no resistance to, without damaging the body. The Structure of Fungi Fungi belong to the group of organisms called eukaryotes that are organisms with complex cells in which the cell has a nucleus. Animals and plants share this center nucleus among their cell types, bacteria do not. The cellular wall of fungi is composed of mannoproteins and chitin, which itself is composed of cellulose and hemicellulose. Chitin is vegetable in nature and what gives the cell its rigidity. It is close to the same composition of vegetables and what causes them to stand up and grow reaching for the sunlight. It is composed of one cell thick filaments that are often called hyphae and are very similar to roots of plants since fungi feed from these hyphae."

[ 1] [2] It is generally considered a field of biology, but intersects frequently with many other life sciences and is strongly linked with the study of information systems. The father of genetics is Gregor Mendel, a late 19th-century scientist and Augustinian friar. Mendel studied \"\"trait inheritance\"\", patterns in the way traits are handed down from parents to offspring. He observed that organisms (pea plants) inherit traits by way of discrete \"\"units of inheritance\"\". This term, still used today, is a somewhat ambiguous definition of what is referred to as a gene. Trait inheritance and molecular inheritance mechanisms of genes are still primary principles of genetics in the 21st century, but modern genetics has expanded beyond inheritance to studying the function and behavior of genes."

For the first time, people had the ability to fight bacterial infections, such as tuberculosis, that were once deadly. But resistance to those same life-saving drugs is one of the greatest challenges facing medicine today. The rise of antibiotic resistance over the past half-century is one of the most dramatic and compelling examples of evolution in action. Bacteria have adapted to nearly every antibiotic we've developed. Their ability to reproduce quickly and exchange bits of DNA enable bacteria to have this degree of adaptability. Bacteria are single-celled prokaryotic organisms, which means that they lack a nucleus. Compared to eukaryotic organisms —organisms such as yeast and humans—which corral their DNA inside of the cell nucleus, bacterial DNA floats freely in the cytoplasm."

Update: could u pleae give a few more differences between em... thx Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The prokaryotes (pronounced /proʊˈkærioʊtiːz/; singular prokaryote /proʊˈkæriət/) are a group of organisms that lack a cell nucleus (= karyon), or any other membrane-bound organelles. They differ from the eukaryotes, which have a cell nucleus. Most are unicellular, but some prokaryotes are multicellular organisms. The word prokaryotes comes from the Old Greek pro- before + karyon nut or kernel, referring to the cell nucleus, + suffix -otos, pl. -otes; it is also spelled \"\"procaryotes\"\". [ 1] The prokaryotes are divided into two domains: the bacteria and the archaea. Archaea are a newly appointed domain of life. These organisms were originally thought to live only in inhospitable conditions such as extremes of temperature, p H, and radiation but have since been found in all types of habitats."

That common-sense observation led to agriculture, the purposeful breeding and cultivation of animals and plants for desirable characteristics. Firming up the details took quite some time, though. Researchers did not understand exactly how traits were passed to the next generation until the middle of the 20th century. Now it is clear that genes are what carry our traits through generations and that genes are made of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). But genes themselves don't do the actual work. Rather, they serve as instruction books for making functional molecules such as ribonucleic acid (RNA) and proteins, which perform the chemical reactions in our bodies. Proteins do many other things, too. They provide the body's main building materials, forming the cell's architecture and structural components. But one thing proteins can't do is make copies of themselves."

You may be told that you have your mother's nose. A daughter might be born with a head of curls that came from her father. Or perhaps, you were born with red hair, a trait only carried recessively by your parents. At any rate, all characteristics about a person, from hair color to body type, are determined by genes passed down by their mother and father, and this blueprint of information is found on a very important molecule: DNA."

Today, the flower's colors include various shades of pink, purple, red, yellow, bronze or orange, and white. Chrysanthemum comes from combining the Greek word chrysos; meaning gold, with anthemon; meaning flower. So the chrysanthemum is literally, the 'golden flower'. This noble blossom was often portrayed as a symbol of perfection in many cultures. Quite an achievement for a blossom that started out as a small, yellow daisy-like flower! The chrysanthemum has been cultivated in China for nearly 2,700 hundred years and the flower was revered for both its beauty and as a medicinal herb.

Since the Song dynasty (960-1279) flowers have been among the most popular decorative themes. This was particularly true on 18th-century enamelled porcelains, where the flowers were sometimes accompanied by butterflies.

The term chrysanthemum is adapted from the Greek words chrysos which means gold (its original color) and anthos meaning flower. The oldest variety of chrysanthemum is the Chinese chrysanthemum, which was a daisy-like plant in China. It was cultivated for nearly 2,500 years before it made its way to Europe. History of Chrysanthemum Chrysanthemum is one of the most popular flowers, next only to rose. Chrysanthemums belong to the Asteraceae (compositae) family, the second largest family of flowers. The plant has been cultivated by the Chinese for more than 2500 years. Chrysanthemums originated in China and was brought by Buddhist monks to Japan in AD 400.

Although chrysanthemums can occur in a range of different colors, the golden variety is the most famous, and this coloring accounts for part of its symbolic importance. The chrysanthemum has served as the official emblem of the Japanese Imperial family for centuries, and the Emperor was said to occupy the “chrysanthemum throne”. Due to its golden color, the chrysanthemum also functions as a solar symbol, and since the Imperial family traditionally claimed descent from the sun goddess Amaterasu-ōmikami, the importance of the flower speaks for itself. Due to its many layers of petals, chrysanthemums are symbols of longevity and immortality. They also represent joy and happiness; in Japan today, there is a festival called Kiki no Sekku which, drawing on chrysanthemum symbolism, is dedicated to those values. In China, the chrysanthemum is one of the “Four Gentlemen” of Confucian tradition, which also includes the plum, orchid and bamboo. Each of these plants represents a season, and since chrysanthemums typically bloom into the autumn, they are associated with that season."

"text": "Chinese Gift Etiquette, Gift Ideas and Taboos Posted on October 5, 2007 by Robert Thompson It is important to know that gifts are a major part of the Chinese culture. For example, the Chinese would much rather reciprocate a gift with another gift than to send a ‘thank you’ card. When visiting someone in China, especially if you are a guest in their house, it is imperative that you bring a gift (whatever the monetary value) to show respect to the host. In this article, you will learn about gifts, gift giving, and gift ideas that are appropriate in China, and which gifts are not appropriate (and should be avoided). Gifts / Gift Etiquette in China Bringing a gift for your friend, relative, business partner, or host is a good idea. Depending on the nature of your visit, your gift may vary. Gifts are an important way to build relationships in China. Chinese are fond of items that are not accessible in China. For example, items that are hand-made, from your country, or both, are highly valued. The Chinese do not usually open gifts when they receive them."

"text": "A Truly Complete List of Flower Names and Their Meanings Here is a list of flower names along with their symbolic meanings. Find out how to use the language of flowers to express deep-felt emotions like love, longing, anticipation, jealousy, hope, and so on. As the saying goes, 'say it with flowers!' And indeed, people have been saying it with flowers since time immemorial, using the special meanings of flowers to express all kinds of emotions. Whether to woo somebody special on Valentine's Day, display affection on Father's Day or Mother's Day, or to express a 'get well soon' message for somebody ill, flowers have been used to say it all. In fact, the symbolic meaning of flowers has given birth to a language of its own, known as floriography. Apart from each of the names of flowers being imbued with symbolism such as romance or sympathy or affection, all flowers express specific phrases as well. As a matter of fact, the Victorians were the ones who used flower symbolism most profusely to communicate subtly what they wanted to say, but could not speak aloud since decorum would not allow it. With flowers, and their symbolic meanings, they could verbalize communication without saying anything or evince a feeling. Thus, the Victorians would often make a bouquet that they could use as an expression of an unvoiced message to the person receiving it, using various kinds of symbolism like the number, the arrangement, the color, and of course the type of flower."

"text": "\"The Hidden or Implied Meaning of Chinese Charm Symbols Differences between Chinese Coins and Chinese Charms Most old Chinese coins have an inscription of four Chinese characters to identify the historical time of their casting and their monetary value. Most Chinese charms also have four (or more) Chinese character inscriptions but the inscription is not meant to identify when the charm was made or its monetary value (which is none). Instead, the inscription is either an auspicious desire, such as for good luck, good fortune, good health, success in the imperial examinations or business, etc., or a wish to avert misfortune from evil ghosts and spirits. ( For additional information on Chinese charm inscriptions, please see Guide to Reading Chinese Characters (Symbols) on Charms and English Translation of Chinese Charm Inscriptions .) More importantly, and unlike Chinese coins, most Chinese charms also depict a variety of objects meant to enhance the inscriptions with rich symbolic meanings. Visual and Spoken Puns One of the peculiarities of the Chinese language is that it has a very large number of written characters but a much smaller number of spoken sounds. As a result, many Chinese characters share the same pronunciation, i.e. are homonyms. The charms of the Ming (1368 - 1644 AD) and Qing (Ch'ing) (1644 - 1911 AD) dynasties, in particular, frequently took advantage of this characteristic. The charms may use depictions of animals, plants and other objects to substitute for other words because of their similarity in pronunciation, even though they may not have any other relationship to what is being expressed."

The name \"\"Yamato\"\" is used by archaeologists and historians to distinguish Japanese artistic genres from their Chinese counterparts. When used as a contemporary term, Yamato has strong associations with the imperial system, and thus with conservative nationalist ideologies.

Sean Gallup / Getty Imagesby Kallie Szczepanski Updated March 06, 2017From the time of the Meiji Restoration in 1868 until the Japanese surrender that ended World War II, the Emperor of Japan was an all-powerful god/king. The Imperial Japanese Armed Forces spent the first half of the twentieth century conquering vast swathes of Asia, fighting the Russians and the Americans, and menacing even Australia and New Zealand. With the country's defeat in 1945, however, Emperor Hirohito was forced to renounce his divine status, as well as all direct political power. Nonetheless, the Chrysanthemum Throne endures. So, what does the current emperor of Japan actually do? Today, Hirohito's son, Emperor Akihito, sits on the Chrysanthemum Throne. According to the Constitution of Japan, Akihito is a \"\"symbol of the state and the unity of the people, deriving his position from the will of the people with whom resides sovereign power. \"\" The current emperor of Japan has official duties that include receiving foreign dignitaries, awarding decorations to Japanese citizens, convening the Diet, and officially appointing the Prime Minister as selected by the Diet."

Native to China and prized for over 2,000 years, the name “chrysanthemum” comes from the Greek words for gold (chrysos) and flower (anthos) and is often affectionately shortened to “mum. ”Research into chrysanthemums will lead to some confusion as you encounter two botanical names: Chrysanthemum sp. and Dendrathema sp. The plants were originally named and placed in the genus Chrysanthemum in the 1700s. Then, in the 1990s, they were moved to the genus of Dendrathema because of the sheer number of varieties being developed. That decision was soon reversed, and Chrysanthemum is once again the official scientific name. Florist chrysanthemums are often button-shaped. Varieties of Chrysanthemums There are literally hundreds of types of chrysanthemums – with variations in height, spread, color, size of flower, bloom time, and type of bloom. There are also hardy garden mums and non-hardy florist or show mums."

To start, cigars have two primary measurements: The diameter (called the ring gauge). The length. The ring gauge is always measured in 64 ths of an inch, meaning that a ring gauge of 64 would be a full inch in diameter (which is actually a very fat, probably non-existent, cigar). In the U. S. and England, the length is measured in inches. But in many other countries, sticks are sized in centimeters. Cigars can also be identified by their shape and how they’re capped.

The purpose of the humidor is to keep your cigars at peak freshness. Ideally, conditions for your sticks should be at about roughly 70% relative humidity and 70 degrees F. In your humidor, you will have a humidification system in which you will put the solution - usually 1:1 distilled water and Propylene Glycol. The PG acts as an agent that keeps the Relative Humidity inside your humidor balanced. A hygrometer will measure the RH so you can be assured you are at the correct level. Be sure you calibrate your hygrometer. Given proper care, your cigars will keep for years. Some people really value properly aged cigars (they will develop a \"\"bloom\"\" over time - a fine white crystal that looks like powder). Please note that Spanish Cedar works very well at maintaining a humidor at the proper humidity."

"text": "Cigar Trends For 2014Cigar Lifestyle 12 Mar 2014Jonathan De Tore Share Johnathan Detore has his finger on the pulse of the cigar industry to predict new cigar trends There were a lot of changes in the cigar industry in 2013 which makes us curious about the cigar trends for 2014. All of these changes are to appeal to mass consumerism to give the people what they want. Fortunately for the good ol’ U. S. of A., we’re the largest purveyor of cigars which means they change dramatically to appeal specifically to the U. S. cigar market, and the rest of the world can just deal with it. In any case, there are a few interesting trends that stood out in 2013 that I believe will only be even more obvious in 2014. When everyone in my company, aside from yours truly, went to IPCPR last year, they came back with a report on what they saw, who is coming out with what, and enough glitter to fill a swimming pool from the countless strip clubs they “accidently” walked into, and it was interesting to see what is happening in our industry. Based off of this report, we can accurately predict what the major cigar trends of 2014 will be, which can be broken down into three categories: increased small batch cigar production, bigger cigar sizes, and the rising trend of American tobacco use. Cigar Trend #1: Small Batch Cigars If you’ve ever smoked an Aging Room cigar, then you’ve smoked a small batch cigar. What this means is that a particular small batch cigar line uses tobaccos from one or multiple harvest years that are then blended Aging Room Quattro cigars are a small batch blend that has taken home some big ratingstogether to make the cigar. They will never use tobacco from another crop or harvest year, so you get a massive amount of consistency from one cigar to the next. Once they run out of the tobaccos used for that particular cigar, that’s the end of the line and you will never see it again."

See types of tobacco and curing of tobacco for more information.

However, most of these smokers puff on normal cigarettes, which are cheaper when compared to cigars. Cigars are usually associated to power and wealth and it goes without a say that they’re quite expensive indeed. First time smokers are normally shocked when they want to purchase cigars because of the price tag. Even though most other countries produce classic cigars, Cuban cigars without a doubt rank the highest in any list. Nonetheless, it’s important to be aware that most of the products from Cuba are illegal in the US. Here is a list of the top 10 most expensive cigars in the world:10 Padr0n Serie 1962 80 Years, $30.00Advertising [x]9 9.

Message posted by Sam S on September-08-2011 at 14:19 - IP Logged Sam SStandard Member United Kingdom March-29-2010 69 Posts I know you shouldn't inhale cigar smoke but some nicotine must get through the skin of your mouth while the smoke is in there. Has anyone ever done a study about it? Message posted by Director on September-08-2011 at 21:51 - IP Logged Director Gold Member United States July-19-2011 196 Posts From the reading I have done, I understand that a single cigarette contains about 9 mg of nicotine. However, because of the burning of the tobacco, the smoker only receives about 1 mg of nicotine per cigarette. Cigars, because of their size, can contain up to 4 times as much nicotine, which could mean about 4-5 mg of nicotine absorbed through the lips, gums, tongue, larynx etc. But the carcinogens, I understand, are in the other chemicals which carry the nicotine - the nicotine is the addictive portion and the tars are the carcinogens. Most cigar smokers do not inhale, so lung cancer is less a problem...however, cancer of the mouth etc is more prevalent. I am not a doctor, but this is what I have read!! ----------------- \"\" I smoke in moderation...only one cigar at a time!\"\""

For one, both of them, according to health experts, are bad for our health. Both also have connections with machismo. And both tie up with harmful vices. It is still essential for us to pinpoint what makes the two apart by distinguishing their core and meaning. Tobacco: Cigar is originally an agricultural product that is usually seen wrapped in a leaf tobacco used for smoking. The main chemical used is nicotine, and it is the main contributor for making tobacco smoking habit forming. Cigarettes: Cigarettes are finely cut tobacco leaves wrapped in paper for smoking. It also consists of PVA glue for bonding purposes. What makes cigarette smoking also habit forming is the ingredient called reconstituted tobacco that has additives which helps nicotine function to its maximum level thereby making the entire stick addictive."

"text": "The Humidor Guide July 16, 2014 / 9 Comments / in General, Gentleman's Query, Tobacco / by J. A. Shapira If you enjoy smoking cigars, but you haven’t yet began to start your collection; purchasing a humidor should really be your first step – even before buying cigars. As we’ve discussed before, a humidor is the vault you lock and store your cigars in. It’s made with a specific purpose in mind and that’s to allow you to safely store and age your cigar collection in a pristine environment that is made to exacting standards ensuring your cigars remain fresh and healthy for years to come by generating a precise level of humidity so they don’t dry out. In most cases, a humidor is a term used to describe a room or a box that is capable of maintaining a very specific temperature and humidity level. While it’s most commonly used to store cigars, it can really be used to store a variety of tobacco products including cigarettes and pipe tobacco. In fact, humidors throughout history have been used to store many different products that require a certain level of humidity. One famous example is the Colorado Rockies baseball team which stores its baseballs in a humidor to counteract the the high altitude in the area. Regardless of what the humidor is being used for, or whether it’s a small box or a large room, all humidors are made the same and rely on a few tools to keep them regulated. Types of Humidors There are three main types of humidors. One is wood and the others are acrylic glass and metal."

"text": "\"by David \"\"Doc\"\" Diaz Wednesday, October 24, 2007Introduction In the summer of 2007, at the annual board of directors meeting, the membership of the Retail Tobacco Dealers of America (RTDA) decided to change the name of the organization. The membership voted to adopt the name International Premium Cigar and Pipe Retailers association: IPCPR. Recognizing the reality and strength of the current anti-tobacco movement, the organization felt it was necessary to better represent the focus of the organization and make clear its distance from cigarettes and even machine-made cigars. After 75 years of existence, the organization conceded that the generic reference to “Tobacco” in the name of the organization could refer to any type of tobacco and was too closely associated with, or better, maligned by, cigarette tobacco. There are, indeed, many differences between premium cigars and cigarettes. The main purpose of this article is to compare cigarettes and cigars with respect to construction and contents. In describing the fundamental differences between cigarettes and cigars, I also hope to elucidate how these differences are related to the potential for addiction, toxicity, and disease. I will also describe how we as cigar smokers might lower our risk for all kinds of negative health conditions, diseases and early death. Historical Sketch Public interest in the dangers of cigar smoking has been spurred by many scientific publications, but none were more historic or groundbreaking than the first report to the U. S. Surgeon General on smoking and health (U. S. Public Health Service, 1964). The Surgeon General’s report portrayed moderate cigar smoking (less than 5 cigars per day) as having nearly the same low risk of early death as for non-smokers and started a debate that still rages to this day."

Third, the length of time you wish to smoke along with when and where you will smoke, i.e. after a meal, at the end of the day, etc. Lastly, the price you will pay for a cigar. Let's begin with size and shape. Contrary to popular belief, there is no correct or absolute guideline for choosing the right sized cigar.

"text": "Media Cinematographer Follow Job Description Salary Working hours Entry Training Job Description Cinematographers (a.k.a. directors of photography) work alongside directors to give films, TV shows, music videos and television commercials their own unique aesthetic style. Responsible for managing camera crews and lighting crews, they oversee the selection and manipulation of technical equipment to create striking images on screen. The visual impact of a film is driven by the creative choices a cinematographer makes. These guys make the big decisions about the use of different lenses, filters, lighting techniques and camera movements to create dramatic effect and prompt different emotional responses from the audience. They’re also responsible for making decisions about aspect ratio, digital effects, image contrast, and frame rates. Cinematographers get involved throughout the entire production lifecycle. Before filming starts, they dissect the screenplay, conduct extra research into different styles and motifs which relate to the subject matter of the script, and liaise with the director to discuss their creative ideas. The next step involves meticulously planning the technical execution of each shot. They also figure out what equipment and staff will be required."

Barry Jerry Levine Frank Whaley Willem Dafoe Music by John Williams Cinematography Robert Richardson Edited by Joe Hutshing David Brenner Distributed by Universal Pictures Release date December 20, 1989Running time 145 minutes Country United States Language English Budget $14 million Box office $161 million [1]Born on the Fourth of July is a 1989 American biographical war drama film based on the best-selling autobiography of the same name by Vietnam War veteran Ron Kovic. [ 2]Tom Cruise plays Ron Kovic, in a performance that earned him his first Academy Award nomination. Oliver Stone (himself a Vietnam veteran) co-wrote the screenplay with Kovic, and also produced and directed the film. Stone wanted to film the movie in Vietnam, but because relations between the United States and Vietnam had not yet been normalized, it was instead filmed in the Philippines. The film is considered part of Stone's \"\"trilogy\"\" of films about the Vietnam War—following Platoon (1986) and preceding Heaven & Earth (1993). Born on the Fourth of July was nominated for eight Academy Awards and won two, for Best Director and Best Film Editing; it also won four Golden Globe Awards and a Directors Guild of America Award. The film was a critical and commercial success, grossing $161,001,698 worldwide.

"text": "The Difference: Videography vs Cinematography Comments Many have asked: what’s the difference between a videographer and a cinematographer? Distinguishing between these two terms has many buyers understandably confused and frustrated. There’s a discrepancy between the actual definitions of the terms and how they’re being re-defined in the marketing of video companies and freelancers. The unfortunate truth for customers is that, depending on how each company / freelancer uses the terms, there may or may not be a difference. So we’re going to outline exactly what defines a videographer and a cinematographer and what it should mean to you as a potential buyer of videography services. To be a cinematographer is to be part of a large crew A cinematographer, also referred to as the director of photography (or DP), is the individual in charge of the camera and lighting crews on a movie or other production. It is the responsibility of the cinematographer to realize the vision of the director by making technical and artistic decisions in regards to lens choice, exposure, lighting, composition, filters, camera movement, color-grading and more. To put it simply, the cinematographer is the person accountable for a film’s cinematography, the art and science of motion picture photography. Every decision the cinematographer makes must also service the director and the story. On a large production, it is unlikely that the cinematographer operate the camera."

"text": "\"Most people know what the cinematographer does on a set. However, have you ever wondered what exactly cinematographers do during the pre-production process? What about what they do once the production has wrapped? Over the course of the next few months, No Film School will put out a series of articles that describe in detail the various steps that a cinematographer and his team must complete in order to take a project from a script to a finely tuned finished product. Today's post: taking a script and breaking it down for technical, subtextual, and character concerns. Earlier this month I was hired to DP a short science fiction film called Pater (latin for \"\"father\"\"). Since the film provides a number of unique cinematographic and special effects challenges (especially considering the minuscule budget,) it seemed prudent to write about the process from start to finish. Hopefully we'll be able to demystify the many facets of cinematography pre and post production, and by the end, have a distinct and in-depth definition of the cinematographer's process. So what is Pater about? In short, it's the story of two extraterrestrial beings, the Progenitor, who is wise and stoic, yet rapidly aging, and Janus, who is toeing the line between childhood and adulthood."

[ Updated]By Sandy Schaefer09.01.201574 Comments665 Shares Share On Facebook Tweet Share Email Share Share Pin It Share Comment Advertising [x]2016 will see Zack Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice (a “prologue” of sorts to Justice League) and David Ayer’s Suicide Squad (a DC super-villain team-up adventure) open in theaters, with Patty Jenkins’ Wonder Woman scheduled to be the next DC superhero solo movie to arrive, in 2017. Gal Gadot, however, will make her screen debut as Diana Prince first in Batman V Superman. Oscar-winner Bill Westenhofer ( Life of Pi) will serve as Jenkins’ visual effects supervisor on the Wonder Woman solo film, when production gets underway within the next few months – that is, before 2015 draws to a close. Other impressive talents which are reportedly set to work behind the camera on the project include cinematographer Hoyte Van Hoytema, according to the latest update on the matter. Meet the Movie Press, which also first reported the news that Phil Lord and Chris Miller are working on Warner Bros. and DC’s The Flash movie, is the source for the news about Hoytema working on the Wonder Woman solo film. The idea makes sense, though, as Hoytema has started to increasingly work on large-scale tentpole productions in recent years – after breaking out on small, critically-acclaimed, films like Let the Right One In, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, and The Fighter – so a superhero feature film reads as being a logical next step for him. Hoytema also served as the director of photography on director Christopher Nolan’s space adventure Interstellar; he has since provided the cinematography for Sam Mendes’ second James Bond movie, Spectre, which opens in theaters this Fall. Jenkins’ Wonder Woman is expected to explore the origins of the eponymous Amazonian warrior via a script from Jason Fuchs (who, in turn, examined Peter Pan’s origins for the upcoming release, Pan ), so it’s fitting that someone with an eye for majestic visuals and gorgeous environmental imagery like Hoytema would be recruited for Wonder Woman – a film which ought to unfold as a history-spanning narrative with overt mythical elements. UPDATE: The Playlist reached out to Hoytema for a comment on his involvement with the Wonder Woman film, to which he responded “I have nothing to do with that movie.”"

"text": "\"Formula 1Why Ron Howard's 'Rush' Deserved Oscar Recognition Fraser Masefield January 16, 2014Ron Howard with Niki Lauda in Monaco Mark Thompson/Getty Images Formula One racing and movies are two of my favourite things. So when today’s Oscar nominations were released, I was understandably disappointed to see Ron Howard’s Rush miss out among the films competing for the industry’s biggest awards. What makes Rush such a special movie is that it wasn’t purely a flick for F1 fans and petrolheads as may have been the case with others of the genre, such as John Frankenheimer’s Grand Prix and Le Mans of Steve Mc Queen fame. The story of Niki Lauda’s epic 1976 championship battle against James Hunt was a script made for a Hollywood movie. It is a tale of two contrasting personalities—Lauda the quiet, insular and complex Austrian focused on nothing but winning against the brash playboy in Hunt, who views F1 as an extension of his excessive way of living life in the fast lane. It’s also a tale of triumph and tragedy as Lauda overcame horrific injuries sustained in his fiery accident at the Nurburgring to take the championship down to a nail-biting climax in Fuji, Japan.

S. \"\"People who love motor sports are surprised it is as authentic and intense and effective as it is.

The film, in the words of director Ron Fricke, is a journey of rediscovery and reconnecting. The dominant message is a mystical one: God is nature, big cities are unnatural, and we connect with nature through organic religious rituals. The movie was filmed during a 13 month period in 24 countries at over 150 locations. It was shot on 70 millimeter film which gives it especially high resolution (the normal film size for a feature-length movie is 35 millimeter). Baraka follows in the tradition of the groundbreaking nonverbal film Koyaanisqatsi (1983), directed Godfrey Reggio, of which Fricke was the cinematographer. Wearing the director’s hat this time, Fricke set out to make “The ultimate nonverbal film in the ultimate format,” as Baraka’s producer Mark Magidson puts it. While the film contains no narration or dialogue, it nonetheless contains a clear three-act story. Act 1 depicts scenes of natural wonder and religious rituals that blend together. In Act 2 the movie shifts direction as a Brazilian rainforest tree is chainsawed to the ground."

"text": "\"Posted on January 29, 2015 by James Mooney In The Importance of Film Form we considered the formal elements at the filmmaker’s command, and the the overall pattern of these elements that make up the film’s formal system. This post focuses on the elements of film style – mise-en-scene, cinematography, editing, and sound – providing a few examples of how Welles’ Citizen Kane (1941) utilises these elements in and, in doing so, draws on other prominent film styles. Mise-en-scene. This term (originally from theatre) can be somewhat ambiguous and is used in differing senses but, essentially, mise-en-scene consists of (at least) setting, costume and make-up, staging (acting and movement), and lighting. That is, everything that happens in front of the camera and appears in the final shot. Mise-en-scene is, as you can imagine, a terribly important part of filmmaking and, in its broadest sense, can be taken to be the whole look and feel of a film – its direction. Indeed, sometimes film directors are referred to as ‘metteurs-en-scene’. In Citizen Kane, setting functions to highlight key aspects of Kane’s life. For example, the ceiling (constructed on set) in the cluttered Inquirer offices cannot contain his vast personality while the enormous emptiness of Xanadu reveal his isolation. Costume and make-up are also put to good use (the ageing of some of the characters was quite revolutionary for its time)."

Toilet seats do not come in a standard size. But let's look at the reasons why, and see how you can easily find a replacement for your own toilet. Like many things in the home, your toilet will suffer a fair degree of wear and tear over the course of its life. It's hardly surprising. After all, it's something you use every day. And it's your toilet seat that takes the brunt of this regular use. If you share your home with someone of the opposite sex or children, you probably won't appreciate how many times your toilet seat is raised and lowered over the course of a year. However, if you think of it as around 4 times a day, that's over 1,400 times your hinges will be put to work over the course of a year."

This occurs on acceleration with the engine under a load. Each term describes a slightly different condition, but the result is usually the same with each, engine damage. What is pre-ignition or valve clatter? With pre-ignition, the fuel/air mixture in the cylinder spontaneously explodes, slightly before the spark plug ignites it. In proper operation, the piston moves down the cylinder and draws the fuel/air mixture in. The following cycle compresses the mixture, making it explosive. As the piston moves higher into the bore, we more tightly compress the fuel and air. Just before the piston reaches the top, a spark ignites the mixture, which expands violently. This expansion and rise in pressure pushes the piston down the bore and drives the engine."

"text": "An air chamber will not drain properly ifit is clogged. Remove its cap and ream outthe accumulated scale inside the chamber. Water hammer is a specific plumbing noise, not a generic name for pipe clatter. It occurs when you shut off the water suddenly and the fast-moving water rushing through the pipe is brought to a quick halt, creating a sort of shock wave and a hammering noise. Plumbing that's properly installed has air chambers, or cushions, that compress when the shock wave hits, softening the blow and preventing this hammering. The chambers can fail, though, because water under pressure gradually absorbs the air. If you never had hammering and then it suddenly starts, most likely your plumbing system's air chambers have become waterlogged. You can cure water hammer by turning off the water behind the waterlogged chamber, opening the offending faucet and permitting the faucet to drain thoroughly. Once all the water drains from the chamber, air will fill it again and restore the cushion. If the air chamber is located below the outlet, you may have to drain the main supply lines to allow the chamber to fill with air again."

At right, the model he chose to replace it. Seth Kugel for The New York Times (old luggage photos)How do you know when it’s time to replace your carry-on bag? For me, here were the signs that perhaps my boxy black Samsonite, circa 2003, was reaching the end of its road: The handle was held together by Super Glue and several layers of frayed duct tape; the outside pocket had a six-inch rip along the zipper, exposing its contents (my underwear, typically) to the rest of coach class; the once sturdy wheels were stripped down to nothing from years of clattering over cobblestones, bumping over tree roots and bouncing down subway stairs. Oh, and at 25 inches long, it’s not even close to a regulation carry-on, and I bought it when no airline was charging for checked bags. So for the last few years, I’d get nervous every time I pass that tiny “Does your carry-on fit in here?” frame. I have never been stopped, but when I read United has been cracking down on carry-on violators, that was the final straw. ( Guess which airline I’m flying this week. ) I’m obviously not the kind of traveler who cares deeply about luggage."

"text": "\"The Truth About Compressor Surge What’s in a name? First of all, let’s get the terminology straight. Compressor surge often goes by many other names (usually in reference to the distinct sound made when surge occurs) such as turkey, pigeon, dove, dose, wastegate chatter, sequential BOV and undoubtedly many others I am not aware of or have yet to be invented!Whilst I can’t argue that compressor surge noise does share a similarity to the noise made by certain avian species, the remainder of these names are either misleading or flat out incorrect. For example: Dose: I have no idea how this name was derived, but it is most commonly associated with the Holden VL Turbo, since no factory diverter valve is fitted and it compressor surges readily. Going further, a “Dose Pipe” typically refers to any type of pod filter arrangement that makes the fluttering sound louder than with a factory airbox, therefore a “Dose Pipe” is not a device that creates the fluttering sound, but rather a means of making it louder. Wastegate chatter: This is a term that has found its way into common turbo vocabulary, and is often incorrectly used to describe compressor surge. Whilst it is possible for a wastegate to make a small clattering or rattling noise if it is just at the point of opening (exhaust pulses can make it vibrate on its seat before it lifts clear), it has nothing to do with compressor surge. Sequential BOV: Compressor surge is often thought to be the sound made by a specific type of “sequential” BOV. In actual fact, no BOV makes the compressor surge fluttering sound, the noise actually comes from the turbo. This certain “sequential” BOV however is often responsible for causing compressor surge, which is how this misconception propagates."

Based on the speculative novel by Joe Gores, the story concerns real-life detective novelist Dashiell Hammett (Frederic Forest), who early in his career is involved in a complex mystery that will profoundly influence his later works. While hacking away for pulp magazines, Hammett is asked by Jimmy Ryan (Peter Boyle), his old boss at the Pinkerton agency (and the model for the writer's \"\"Continental Op\"\" character), to help out on a particularly difficult case. Before long, Hammett is prowling the nooks and crannies of San Francisco in search of a missing Chinese prostitute-blackmailer (Lydia Lei). Among the several delectable \"\"inside jokes\"\" in Hammett is the presence of Elisha Cook, who'd appeared in the 1941 film adaptation of Hammett's Maltese Falcon, as Eli the Cab Driver. Cinematographers Philip H. Lathrop and Joseph Biroc work overtime to invest Hammett with the \"\"feel\"\" of a classic 1940s detective yarn.

These ruins are numerous and are scattered over a wide scope of country, which includes Arizona and portions of Utah, Colorado and New Mexico. Many of them are yet in a good state of preservation, but all show the marks of age and decay. They are not less than four hundred years old and are, in all probability, much older. Their preservation is largely due to their sheltered position among the rocks and an exceptionally dry climate. The houses are invariably built upon high cliffs on shelving rocks in places that are almost inaccessible.

"text": "I reland may be small, but its landscape and terrain varies richly from valleys to peaks, beaches to bogs. In short, this is a walker’s paradise. We caught up with two walking experts and asked them to choose three favourite walks each. Walks 1-3 have been chosen by Sarah Nelson of Walks NI. Walks 4-6 have been chosen by Stephen Power of Extreme Ireland.ie. Walk 1Causeway Coast Way (North Coast, County Antrim)Length: 33m / 53km Difficulty: Moderate Sarah says: This superb walking route takes you along Northern Ireland's most celebrated coastline. High cliffs, secluded beaches, picturesque harbours and numerous landmarks, including the famous Giant’s Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge and dramatic Dunluce Castle just some of the treats on offer. With frequent access points and terrain suitable for all fit walkers varying from grassy paths, which can often be soft underfoot, long sweeping beach and tarmacked paths and roads. A personal favourite stretch is the 4.5 mile (7.2km) North Antrim Cliff Path from the Giant’s Causeway to Dunserverick Castle, where the spectacular cliff landscape merges effortlessly with surrounding farmland. Walk 2Hare’s Gap (Mourne Mountains, County Down)Length: 2.1m / 3.4km Difficulty: Strenuous Sarah says: The most dramatic mountain pass in the Mournes, Hare’s Gap at 440m (1444ft) once marked the exit point for smuggled goods from the coast."

Tintern Abbey is one of the triumphs of Wordsworth's genius. It may he called a condensed spiritual autobiography of the poet. It deals with the subjective experiences of the poet, and traces the growth of his mind through different periods of his life.

It has been recognized as one of the Top 5 Most Scenic Drives in America by Rand Mc Nally. Oak Creek Canyon is a breathtaking stretch of beauty on a winding road that climbs 4,500 feet from Sedona to the top of the Mogollon Rim. The scenic drive can ascend the canyon from Sedona or descend from Flagstaff, AZ. Either route is equally breathtaking as you slowly descend or ascend through picturesque forests. The canyon opens to the foliage of oaks interspersed with evergreen pines with the incredible backdrop of red-faced rocks and cliffs in the backdrop. Passengers have the viewing advantage. The road is fraught with a few hairpin turns and switchbacks that require the driver's full attention. In any case, there are many locations along the drive for a chance to park and relish the beauty and enchantment Northern Arizona offers. Be sure to stop at Slide Rock, a popular water recreation spot in the summer."

The Lindemanns, Goehles and extended families lived on the Lower East Side which was a notorious tenement district. The word tenement conjures up images of extreme poverty. However the original meaning of the word was to indicate any type of permanent property held by one person and generally rented to another. The word evolved into a description of a large crowded apartment building especially in the poorer more squalid sections of a city. A overwhelming majority of immigrants spent some years in tenements before moving on. Catherine Furst Schwartzmeier Lindemann Minnie Goehle Peter Goehle Langans in New York City Walshes in New York City Life in the Tenements While all tenements before central heating and air conditioning were cold in the winter and roasting hot in the summer not all tenements contained the dirty horrible living conditions with high death rates as portrayed by some of the social reformers. The reformers were, in fact, depicting the worst scenarios, as reformers often do in presenting their case. While horrible conditions did occurred in the tenements there was frequently quite significant prejudices on the part of the social commentators. Many of them, for instance, were temperance advocates who frowned on the German-American's love of his larger and the Irishman's love of his whiskey."

Listen to these lines Often Scyld Scefing seized the mead-benches from enemy troops, from many nations, terrified the noblemen, since he was first found without property; for that he received consolation, (he) grew under the clouds, thrived in honor until everyone of the neighboring nations over the whale-road had to obey him, pay (him) tribute; that was a good king! A son was born later, a young one in the home, that God sent to comfort the people; (He) had seen the distress that they had endured earlier, lord-less for a long while; to them the Lord of Life, the Ruler of Glory, granted worldly honor, [Beow] was famous--his renown spread widely-- Scyld's son, in the Danish realm. So shall a young man bring about good by giving splendid gifts in his father's house, so that later in life dear companions will stand by him, that people will serve him when war comes; by (such) praiseworthy deeds shall a man prosper in every country. Read about the concept of \"\"comitatus\"\" in Tacitus's Germania Scyld then departed at the appointed time, vigorous he went into the protection of the Lord. His dear companions carried him down to the sea-currernts, as he himself had bidden when, as lord of the Scyldings, he had ruled them with his words-- long had the beloved prince ruled the land. There in the harbor stood the ring-prowed ship, ice-covered and ready, a prince's vessel; (they) lay down the beloved of the people, the distributor of rings, in the bosom of the ship, the illustrious one beside the mast. There was much treasure, decorated armor, brought from lands far away. I have not heard of a ship more splendidly equipped with war-weapons and battle-dress, swords and mail-shirts; on his breast lay many treasures that should voyage with him far out into the sea's possession."

"text": "\"The Desert Adaptations of Birds & Mammals Peter Siminski Have you ever wondered how animals can live in a hostile desert environment? Water, so necessary for life processes, is often scarce. Temperatures, which range from freezing to well over 100�F (38�C), make maintaining a safe body temperature a constant challenge. Add to this the catch-22 of desert survival: an organism's need for water increases as temperature rises-available water usually decreases the hotter it gets. This might sound like an impossible situation, yet, as we'll see, desert birds and mammals have developed many adaptive strategies for coping with temperature extremes and limited water. The primary strategy for dealing with high desert temperatures is avoidance-many mammals simply avoid the high daytime temperatures by being nocturnal or crepuscular (dusk- or dawn-active). A bobcat, for instance, is typically most active at dusk and dawn; a javelina is never active during the day in summer, but it may be in winter. Even day-active birds are most active at the cooler dawn. Many mammals, such as ringtails or kangaroo rats, are never active during the day. Microclimates and Burrows Another avoidance strategy is to seek out a cool microclimate."

"text": "\"Squirrels Several species of squirrels make their home in Texas, but the one with the widest distribution is the fox squirrel. It prefers an open, parklike woods where large mature trees shade the forest floor and prevent the under-brush from flourishing, but it can adapt to a variety of forest habitats. It is most abundant in the eastern third of the state, and distribution in the wild is about one squirrel for every two or three acres. Since a fox squirrel ranges over an area of at least ten acres during any one season and may cover forty acres during a year's time, the territories of several often overlap. It is not uncommon for squirrels to share winter food supplies. The gray squirrel is smaller and faster than the fox squirrel, and its agility and skittishness have given it a second name – cat squirrel. Acorns are the most important fall and winter food for the fox squirrel. The nuts provide needed energy but are low in protein. Squirrels start eating hickory and other nuts in the dough stage while the nuts are still developing and continue eating them as they mature, burying them until the supply is gone. During the spring and summer the squirrels also eat insects, buds, green shoots, fruits, and seeds."

"text": "Murals in the City Origin of Murals Murals may well have been the one of the first works of art mankind ever created, or at least one of the few that endured long enough for future generations to discover. Exactly how long murals, in some incarnation, have been a part of society is debatable, but most scholars maintain that 32,000 years ago, when prehistoric man created images of horses and lions on the walls of Chauvet cave in what is now France, they were creating what would become the oldest preserved piece of art in human history. Chauvet cave paintings Since those days of murals made with crushed colorful minerals, murals have only increased in complexity. The image left is one akin to what you might find in murals early prepubescent stage in the Upper Paleolithic times. While there exists a plethora of cave paintings similar to those found in France that an interested party could speak on for hours, the next developments of murals occurred with the rise and fall of several ancient civilizations in Greece, Rome, Pompeii, and also wall adornments from both the Mayan and Aztec civilizations. Murals saw a large upswing in the renaissance era with artists such as Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo being commissioned to paint large masterpieces in both public and private areas. More recently the United States exploded with murals during the period following the great depression in the 1930’s and 1940’s when Franklin D. Roosevelt, as part of his “New Deal” agenda established the Federal Art Project which lowered the unemployment rate by commissioning unemployed artists to paint over 1,000 murals in public government facilities across the nation. Shortnorth.com states that there exists a blessed dichotomy which continues to evolve in the world of murals where new ones are continually being commissioned and created while old ones are constantly being rediscovered and restored, thus ensuring that murals will live on indefinitely, so for this reason it is important that we, as cultured citizens in the cities these murals adorn, begin to understand them and the reason for their existence. The purpose of this exhibit is not to offer a complete history of murals, or identify the ten most famous murals, or any idea akin to those. The purpose of this exhibit is to serve as a foot in the door for those new to the world of murals, to open the viewers minds and eyes to a style of art that they may see on a daily basis but not be familiar with."

Notice it says that the Anasazi roamed the Four Corners area, which is hours away from the Pikes Peak Region. So why are there cliff dwellings in Manitou Springs, then? In the early 1900s, a group headed by W. S.

"text": "Proper Blackhead Removal For anyone who would like to know how to get rid of acne, understanding proper blackhead removal is essential for best results. Why? Because blackheads are the first sign of acne, and treating them appropriately may curb a breakout before it becomes severe. Keep in mind that blackhead removal is different from treating whitehead pimples, and you may need to supplement your skin care routine with whitehead treatments if you’d like to get rid of acne completely. Nonetheless, using the best blackhead remover can reduce the appearance of acne, as well as the severity of the breakout. Before attempting blackhead removal, it’s important to understand the proper methodology, to prevent scarring and skin damage. Understanding Blackhead Removal Proper blackhead removal begins with understanding of how they form. When hair follicles become clogged because of excessive oil secretion and dead skin cells, a small bump may become apparent. If exposed to the air, debris and dirt will accumulate in the pore, creating a blackhead. The debris clogging the pore will often be darker in hue that the rest of the skin, hence the name blackhead."

"text": "Exfoliation, Skin Care How to Get Rid of Clogged Pores10/17/2011Clogged pores are a problem for many skin types. They are very common in oily and acne prone skin, though anyone can get them. Pores can be clogged with skin oil called sebum, dead skin cells, or with residue from skin care products. This condition can lead to acne and enlarged pores. They often form blackheads on the nose, cheeks, forehead and chin. Sometimes a pore will clog semi permanently and get covered with skin, forming a milia, or oilseed. Large pores clog easier than smaller pores, and can make the pore look even larger. Learning how to get rid of clogged pores properly is important because scarring can result if they are removed incorrectly. Getting rid of clogged pores can be challenging. Don’t try to squeeze them out manually with your fingernails."

"text": "Skincare Why Your Pores Are So Noticeable Share Pin Email Creative RF/Rapid Eye/Getty Imagesby Jen Adkinsupdated February 28, 2018Pores: Some people consider them a five-letter word. If yours are large and noticeable, they're no doubt causing you grief. Let's take a look at their function, their propensity to clog, their role in breakouts—and what you can do, if anything, to minimize their appearance. Your Poor Pores Those much-maligned pores do serve an important purpose. It all starts with your skin's sebaceous glands. They produce sebum, the body's natural oil; it's essential to keep your skin—your body's largest organ—elastic, moisturized, and functioning well as the protector and insulator of your body. The oil is dispersed over the surface of your skin through tiny openings (resembling little holes) in its outermost layer; these are your pores. Each sebaceous gland also contains a hair follicle, and the pore is the opening at the top of it. Everybody Has Pores Every human, without exception, has pores all over the entire body, except on the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet. That's because we have hair all over our bodies, head to toe, except for these areas (and a few others, such as the eyelids)."

"text": "\"CONGESTED PORES: THE REASONS AND SOLUTIONSI t's been brought to my attention with a poll that Heather took in the \"\"All Anna Bellina\"\" forum that at least 33% of the participants were concerned with congested or clogged pores. The resulting appearance of enlarged pores and blackheads were of major concern so here are the whys and the wherefores. Genetics aside, there are steps that can be taken to correct this skin condition. The Reasons and Results of Pores Become Clogged Your skin contains many openings through which oil (sebum) from the oil (sebaceous) glands come to the skin's surface via the hair follicle and pores of the sweat (sudoriferous) glands. Ideally, the perspiration and sebum mix together in normal amounts to form a breathable barrier on the skin's surface, moisturizing and protecting it from the environment. The opening or pores do not contain muscles therefore you cannot control the dilation or shrinkage of these openings with topical skin care products. What does cause an enlarged appearance of these pores is trapped dirt, dead skin cells, waste by-products, makeup, sebum, and other debris that cannot come out of the pore. Many factors contribute to the clogging of pores: #1 is dehydrated skin, #2 improper cleansing, excessive oil production, excessive build-up of dead skin cells, hormones, excessive sweating, dirty work or play environments, genetics, makeup, fingers on the face, allergic reactions, a diet high in sugar content…Once the pores become clogged, the skin's functions of breathing or exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide is hindered, oil cannot be secreted, waste by-products cannot be excreted, moisture cannot be absorbed, and the acid mantel that naturally protects your skin is compromised. These factors result in blackheads (comedones), whiteheads (milia), and even acne (pimples and pustules). The Solutions to Unclogging Pores But there are ways to clear the skin of clogged pores."

Day, MD, a New York City-based dermatologist and author of 100 Questions & Answers About Acne. \"\" There's the idea that blackheads are stuck in your skin—and if you remove them, there's a sense of gratification and relief that they're gone. Blackheads just seem so manageable in that way: You just get them out, and then you're done. \"\" That perception couldn't be further from the truth. Getting rid of blackheads—for good—is a process that requires the right products (hello, salicylic acid), a regular skin-care regimen, and sometimes even the help of pros. Ahead, we spoke to Dr. Day about her most effective tricks. Know Thy Enemy The first step in treating blackheads is truly understanding them. Basically, a blackhead is a pore that's clogged with a mixture of dead skin cells, oil, and Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) — a bacteria that thrives on the protein and oil in your pores and causes breakouts. Unlike a whitehead (a closed comedo), a blackhead is open at the skin's surface (an open comedo). Exposure to air causes this plug of gunk to oxidize and turn black, making it really tempting to mess with."

"text": "The Best Ways to Get Rid of Hard, Red Bumps on Arms and Legs Areas of small, reddish, hard, bumps on the arms and legs are the hallmark of a skin problem often referred to as “chicken skin.” The bumps aren’t harmful, but they’re certainly not pretty!Getting these annoying bumps under control starts with knowing what to do and what you absolutely must not do. The best way to get to the root of the problem is to use an extremely gentle, leave-on exfoliant that contains the ingredient salicylic acid (BHA). BHA is an amazing multitasking ingredient because it gets beyond skin’s surface to exfoliate inside the pore, removing the hard clog that causes the problem. Clog gone, problem relieved!BHA can also diminish the appearance of redness and soften skin, making your arms touchable and presentable at the same time (hello, sleeveless tops!). One great option is our Paula’s Choice Skincare RESIST Weightless Body Treatment with 2% BHA, a lightweight lotion that’s a customer favorite. What about alpha hydroxy acids (AHA)? AHAs do exfoliate skin, but primarily on the surface, not in the pore. However, for some people, AHAs work great for this problem. Think of AHAs as an option if the red, hard, bumps on your arms and legs do not respond to BHA."

If you don’t treat your pores right they can become enlarged pores and/or clogged pores which may result in a zit flare-up. Pores are usually invisible and each pore there is a corresponding hair follicle. On average, men and women have 5 million hairs on their body yet only a small fraction of the hairs are visible to the naked eye. Even though pores are barely visible, the buildup of bacteria and dead skin can make pores look bigger than they actually are. Learn how to reduce the appearance of pores and to prevent clogged pores for healthier, smoother skin. Vaseline Petroleum jelly, known as vaseline, has a strong reputation of softening the rough skin of hands and feet as well as protecting against windburn and chapping.

The good news is that you can avoid getting congested pores in the first place by using products that contain glycolic acid, salicylic acid, or retinol, which increase cell turnover and help unclog, therefore making pores appear smaller. My favorites are Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Peel [$88] and my Resurface Retinol Reform [$95], which contains 5 percent retinol and lactic acid, plus niacinamide and aloe vera, both known for their anti-inflammatory properties. \"\" THE DERMATOLOGISTNeal Schultz, New York: \"\"When a clog forms, that's when pores become distended. If they remain clogged, the surrounding collagen and elastin fibers can overstretch permanently. If the clog is removed quickly, pores can 'shrink' back to their original size. Most cleansers, scrubs, and even microdermabrasion can't get deep into pores. It requires synergy between multiple chemical exfoliators that dissolve both solids (dead skin cells) and liquids (oil), like my glycolic acid, tea tree oil, and pumpkin-seed-extract-based Beauty Rx Dermstick for Pores [$29], which clears up pores overnight."

"text": "\"Advertisement Clouded Leopard Back to Animals for Kids The Clouded Leopard is a large cat. It gets its name from the large cloud like spots on its body. These clouds or spots are outlined in black with a yellow-brown or grey background. Where does the clouded leopard live? Clouded Leopards live in Southeast Asia in countries such as India, China, Thailand, Laos, Nepal and Viet Nam. Their preferred habitat is tropical and sub-tropical evergreen forests. How big do they get? A typical clouded leopard weighs between 25 and 35 pounds and grows to around 35 inches long, not including their tail which can be as long as their bodies. They have a thick, heavy build for a cat and males are often twice as big as females. Clouded Leopards are excellent tree climbers and likely spend a lot of their time up in trees in the wild."

A member of the \"\"Big Cat\"\" family, the Leopard is an agile and opportunistic hunter that has been able to exploit habitats unused by other large felines as it spends a great deal of its time high in the tree branches. There are seven different sub-species of Leopard which differ in their appearance and geographic location, with the African Leopard being the most common and widespread and the others being the rare Amur Leopard, the Anatolian Leopard, the Barbary Leopard, the Sinai Leopard, the South Arabian Leopard and the Zanzibar Leopard. Although the African Leopard populations are stable throughout much of their natural range, the story is different for the remaining sub-species that are often isolated and critically at risk (the Zanzibar Leopard is actually now thought to be extinct). Leopard Anatomy and Appearance The Leopard has a long and slender body that is supported by short, stocky legs and a long tail that is used to aid balance whilst in the trees. Leopards can vary greatly in their colouration and markings depending on their surrounding habitat, with those found on open grasslands having a light yellow background coat where those that are found in forests tend to be darker in colour and with more markings. The dark, ring-like patterns that cover the Leopard's coat are called rosettes, but these turn to solid spots on the face and limbs (and rings on the tail) and provide the Leopard with camouflage into the surrounding environment. Leopards are incredibly strong and muscular and are able to pull themselves up trees using their legs and retractable claws. Like a number of other large feline species, the Leopard is able to draw their claws into folds of skin on their paws to ensure that they are not blunted whilst the animal is walking about. Their keen hearing and sight coupled with their long and very sensitive whiskers, means that Leopards are also incredibly well adapted for hunting under the cover of night."

The long and short of it is that they are a wonderful example of nature’s creativity. Giraffes are the tallest land animals. A giraffe could look into a second-story window without even having to stand on its tiptoes! A giraffe's 6-foot (1.8-meter) neck weighs about 600 pounds (272 kilograms). The legs of a giraffe are also 6 feet (1.8 meters) long. The back legs look shorter than the front legs, but they are about the same length. A giraffe's heart is 2 feet (0.6 meters) long and weighs about 25 pounds (11 kilograms), and its lungs can hold 12 gallons (55 liters) of air! Its closest relative is the okapi. Giraffes have a small hump on their back and have a spotted pattern similar to that of a leopard."

"text": "Pets & Animals Mammals Large Cats Q: How do leopards protect themselves? A: Quick Answer Leopards protect themselves from other predators by hunting during different times of day than other predators, frequenting other areas, going after different prey and hiding in trees. Female leopards protect their cubs by moving them to safe locations frequently until they are old enough to fend for themselves. Continue Reading Keep Learning What eats the Amur leopard? How does a black panther protect itself? What eats snow leopards? Full Answer Leopards often share habitats with other predators, such as lions, tigers, hyenas, bears and wild dogs. When larger predators are prevalent, leopards tend to go after smaller prey and change hunting habits to avoid them. They not only hide in trees but also flee into trees to avoid predation, drag the carcasses of their kills into trees to protect them from scavengers and stash their young in trees to keep them safe. To catch prey or avoid predators, they can run up to 36 mph, bound 20 feet forward or leap 10 feet straight up into the air."

Among the five total species within the Panthera genus, these four are the only cats that are able to roar.

We are going to the Qinling Mountain, which is in the Himalaya Mountain range, in China. What we are looking for, is the unusual animals that live there. Hope you enjoy this trip.~Marsha~QINLING MOUNTAINSThe Qinling Mountains are a major mountain range located mainly in the Eastern province of Shaanxi, in China. The mountains provide a natural boundary between the North and South of the country, and support a huge variety of plant and wildlife, some of which is found nowhere else on Earth.The Northern side of the range is prone to cold weather, while the physical barrier of the mountains mean that the land to the South enjoys a sub-tropical climate, with the rich, fertile landscape supporting a wealth of wildlife and vegetation. Until the late 1990s when a railway tunnel was completed, travel across the range was very difficult.QINLING PANDAThe Qinling Panda is the only known subspecies of the Giant Panda. It was identified in 2004. There are a number of physical differences between the Qinling Panda and the Giant Panda. The Qinling Panda is overall smaller. Its head is smaller and more round, yet its teeth are large. Its fur is light and dark brown as compared to the black and white of the Giant Panda. It is only found in the Qinling Mountains where it is protected with the help of the nature reserves. There are an estimated 200-300 Qinling Pandas in the wild.GOLDEN TAKINThe golden takin is an endangered goat-antelope native to China. Takins are adapted to staying warm and dry during winters in the Himalayan Mountain regions they inhabit. A thick, secondary coat is grown to keep out the cold. Their large, moose-like snout has large sinus cavities that warm up the air a takin inhales which prevents the loss of body heat by breathing. Although they have no skin glands, their skin secretes an oily substance that provides a water barrier that protects takins from the elements. They are around the same size as a cow and are very aggressive.GOLDEN SNUB-NOSED MONKEYAccording to an estimate published in 2001, this subspecies included about 3,800-4,000 individuals (about half of them adults) in Qinling Mountains. They eat a diet of leaves, fruits, seeds, nuts, bark and flowers.TEMMINCK'S TRAGOPANThe Temminck's Tragopan is a medium-sized pheasant. The male is a stocky red-and-orange bird with white-spotted plumage, black bill and pink legs. It has a bare blue facial skin, inflatable dark-blue lappet and horns. The female is a white-spotted brown bird with blue circular eye skin.CRESTED IBISThis species has become endangered and lives in this one particular area, where it has an extremely small population. Although its population continues to increase, there are now perhaps more than 250 mature individuals. Distinctive bushy-crested ibis has red facial skin and legs. Non-breeding adults are white while breeding adults have grey head, neck, mantle and scapulars.GOLDEN EAGLEThe Golden Eagle is one of the best-known birds of prey. It is the most widely distributed species of eagle. These birds are dark brown, with lighter golden-brown plumage on their napes. Immature eagles of this species typically have white on the tail and often have white markings on the wings. Golden Eagles use their agility and speed combined with extremely powerful feet and massive, sharp talons to snatch up a variety of prey (mainly hares, rabbits, marmots and other ground squirrels). Golden Eagles maintain home ranges or territories that may be as large as 77 square miles. They build large nests in high places (mainly cliffs) to which they may return for several breeding years. Females lay up to four eggs, and then incubate them for six weeks. Typically, one or two young survive to fledge in about three months. These juvenile Golden Eagles usually attain full independence in the fall, after which they wander widely until establishing a territory for themselves in four to five years.CLOUDED LEOPARDThe clouded leopard is a cat found from the Himalayan foothills, and has been classified as Vulnerable (of extinction). Its total population size is suspected to be fewer than 10,000 mature individuals. They are the smallest of the big cats, and not closely related to the leopard. Their average weight is 25 to 51 pounds. The fur of clouded leopards is of a dark grey color, often largely obliterated by black and dark dusky-grey blotched pattern. There are black spots on the head, and the ears are black. They have black stripes on the side of their face.",

Without the knowledge base that comes with reptile experience, it can be difficult to know whether or not the gecko is thriving and whether the new keeper is using correct husbandry. In addition, many new gecko owners come from a background of caring for mammalian pets and are more familiar with a pet that needs to eat several times a day and moves around often. Since most new gecko owners seem to be caring for leopard geckos, this article addresses some of the questions and concerns that new leopard gecko owners have voiced frequently in reptile forums. Be aware that this is no substitute for a good caresheet and the advice of experienced keepers about your specific situation. Also, be aware that different keepers do things in different ways so there will not be universal agreement about every detail of what follows: Situation Normal Trying to climb up the glass Why? Most animals, leopard geckos included, test the limits of their new environment for a few days or weeks. When keeping leopard geckos in glass aquariums or bins, seeing them trying to climb up the glass may be an example of this testing. This behavior is fairly normal and once your gecko becomes accustomed to its new home it should stop."

Keepers have been able to determine there are at least one boy and one girl, and they will find out the sex of the other pair once a neonatal exam is performed. Photo Credits: Kansas City Zoo The Arapawa Goat is a New Zealand breed. They are medium-sized and of a non-aggressive temperament. The breed is also considered to be critically close to extinction. According the American non-profit organization, The Livestock Conservancy: “The Arapawa goat is a breed of domestic goat whose ancestors arrived with European explorers or colonists in New Zealand, possibly as early as the 1600’s. The breed was originally only found on the rugged island of Arapawa, which is situated at the top of the South Island of New Zealand. The origin of the goat population on this island has often been associated with the expeditions of Captain James Cook."

Black or nearly black coats occur in individuals of several species. Although lynx (genus Lynx) have a stubby tail, most cats have a long tail that makes up about a third of the animal’s total length. The head is characterized by a short nose and round face, usually with short ears. The only cat with a well-developed mane is the male African lion. Cat feet have sharp claws that are retractile except in the cheetah."

"text": "\"Silver linings: The layered symbolism of cloudsby Corrine Kenner\"\"He that pryeth into every cloud may be struck with a thunderbolt.\"\" — John Clarke's Paroemiologia (1639)I live on the wide-open plains of North Dakota, where we don't have to look up to see clouds; they are constantly in our line of sight. The prairie is perfectly flat, and there aren't many trees or buildings to block our view. We are simply surrounded by sky. At first glance, you might think that living in an empty landscape would be dull — but the view here is more varied than any other place I've seen. On any given day, as cumulus clouds roll along the horizon, it could look as though there are mountains in the distance. Layered stratus clouds, especially at sunrise and sunset, remind me of far-away forests and wooded hills. And on nearly cloudless days, when the sky is merely punctuated by wispy cirrus clouds, it's not hard to imagine that I'm at sea, sailing toward new people and new lands. The prairie is surrounded by a constantly changing landscape of clouds. Of course, when you're surrounded by anything all the time, you don't think about it very much."

"text": "\"Symbolism of the Cloud, Lightning, and Thunderby Jayaram VClouds (megham) are symbolically associated with the emotional states of the mind, physical states of the world and the circumstances related to life. Dark ominous clouds portray trouble, chaos, and the onset of difficult times. Blue clouds suggest the divine power at work. White clouds are the messengers of peace, hope, and love. In Meghadootam, an ancient play by Kalidasa, the hero of the play seeks the assistance of a cloud to convey his love to his beloved who like him is also lonely. Clouds are thus swans of the celestial sphere in the mid-region flying from one place to another. They connect people who are separated by space and distance, carrying good tidings from one to another. As the substratum of the heavens, they have an ethereal and divine quality whch the Vedas proclaim. Indra is the lord of the skies, who flashes his weapon, the lightning, standing amidst dark water bearing clouds. According to the legends he released the rain held in captive by Vrita, the demon of dark clouds."

ANSWER: Interestingly, we only need to look in three places in the Bible to discover the meaning of a rainbow and what certain colors mean. These places to study are found in the books of Genesis, Ezekiel and Revelation. In the Genesis account, a rainbow appears right after the great worldwide flood brought in order to remove sinful and evil-minded man from the earth. It symbolized God's mercy and the covenant He made with Noah (representing mankind) not to destroy the world in such a way again.12. And God said, \"\"This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you and every living creature with you, for everlasting generations: 13. I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth . . . and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh. ( Genesis 9:12, 15, HBFV)In a way, a cloud which has the bow in it pictures God, as Exodus 13 states. \"\""

"text": "Education & Reference Trivia What do the colors on the Argentina flag represent? I need to know what the colors (blue and white) and the sun symbol on the Argentina flag mean.2 following Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The blue and white colors were the colors used in the Argentinean revolution against Spain in the early 1800's. The country's flag was formed in 1820 after the death of General Manuel Belgrano, the leader of the revolution. The sun in the center of the flag is called the Sun of May, and it represents the sun that shown through the clouds on May 25, 1810 when the revolution started which lead to the Argentina's independence.

The sun in the center of the flag is called the Sun of May, it was added to the flag in 1818. According to Ancient and Heraldic traditions much symbolism is associated with colors. The colors on the Argentina flag represent the following: • White - peace and honesty • Blue - represents many elements including vigilance, truth and loyalty, perseverance & justice. On the Argentinean flag the sky blue color compliments the sun emblem it´s a symbolic of the sky above, when the fight for the country's independence began • The sun : on the white band is a yellow sun with a human face known as the Sun of May.

You are not alone!Dearest Readers, It was my quest to understand the haunting recurrence of the triple numbers that continued to show up that this page was first created. As you read the pages and pages of folks from all beliefs and all countries in the world you will soon see you are not alone in your experiences of seeing triple numbers. It is as if some unseen force telepathically turns your eyes to the 1111 address on a house, to the clock at 11:11am then 1:11pm and again as you go to bed at 11:11pm...and it is! What ever your belief, acknowledge that God/Spirit/Angels are telling you you are on your path and to say, \"\"Thank-you\"\" for them talking to you. We would be startled/frightened if a huge Angel appeared to us, or God spoke into our left ear... we would most likely discount the information. But, the recurrence of the triple numbers is a subtle and constant reminder that something magical something Divine is happening. An experience very similar as portrayed in the movie, \"\"Encounters of the Third Kind\"\" when all the actors were searching ... searching for the meaning of the mountain...and their search brought them together, as the following pages will bring you together with others. Dr. Doreen Virtue's book HEALING WITH THE ANGELS Healing with the Angels explains more about triple numbers. Angelic blessings, Mary Ellen ^I^ \"\"Angel Scribe\"\" Now, here is a thumbnail explanation of the number sequences that the angels use to communicate with us: Whenever you see the sequence 111 or 1111 show up, it is a great sign of a golden opportunity."

"text": "\"You Think It's Mucus, but It's Not By CARI NIERENBERGABC NEWS MEDICAL UNITDec. 10, 2008Email In polite circles and among health care professionals, they tend to call it mucus. Some call it phlegm. Others may simply call it snot. No matter which word you use, when you have a cold or flu, you usually have an increased supply of it. At your sickest, your sinuses may rev up production almost as fast as you can clear the stuff away. Still, doctors say, all that gunk in your nose really does have a role in the body and a useful purpose during a cold. Mucus in the nose and sinuses forms a blanket or coating over the mucous membranes lining the upper airways, explained Dr. Thomas Pasic, an ear, nose and throat specialist at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. \"\" It's sticky, so it's constantly trapping miniscule particles from the air you breathe in, such as allergens, pollution and dust to filter it out before it can reach the lungs,\"\" Pasic said. Pasic added that mucus is constantly being formed, and we typically make about a quart of it a day."

"text": "Fact: Your nose is the ultimate lean, green, booger producing machine. Your nose makes mucus to prevent dust and pollen from traveling to your lungs. Some mucus is swallowed (about a quart a day) and some stays nestled in your nose. When you breathe dry air into your nose, that mucus is dried and becomes a booger. Fact: When you have a cold virus, your body defends itself by making lots of snot, it’s your body’s way of trying to flush the virus out. After a few days your boogers may become white or yellow– that’s your immune system creating cells to fight back. Hiya!The speed of a sneeze is approximately 100 mph. That’s faster than a cheetah can run. ( No statistics yet on the speed of a sneeze from a running cheetah!) In addition to being speedy, a single sneeze can send 100,000 germs into the air!"

But what causes boogers and just what are boogers? What Are Boogers and What Causes Boogers? Everybody gets boogers, and just as well too, as they are formed from a substance that performs a vital job in the body. It all starts with mucus, the sticky, slimy and viscous liquid that's made by the mucus membranes inside your nose. A more colloquial name for mucus is snot. And it's part of your body's front line defence system against infection. Mucus is an effective barrier that prevents your lungs from getting damaged. Every time you breathe in through your nose you draw in a myriad of tiny particles including dust, dirt, pollen, bacteria, and viruses. If they were to reach your lungs they could cause irritation, infection, and possibly serious damage."

Karl Smallwood - Today IFound Out.com3/07/14 10:00am Filed to: science 39Does physically taking boogers out of your nose, putting them in your mouth and swallowing boost your immune system? The short answer is probably not. You ingest your snot all the time without needing to channel it through your mouth. So if there is a benefit here, you get it without needing to munch your nose nuggets. That said, there are a couple medical professionals willing to comment on the benefits of mining for green candy, particularly touting benefits to one's immune system. One of the more credible sounding proponents of the habit is Scott Napper, a professor of biochemistry who made waves around the world's media outlets in 2013 when he half-heartedly proposed to a group of his students that eating one's boogers allows our bodies to safely develop anti-bodies to the weakened pathogens present in our snot and noses. He also suggested that the reason boogers have a sugary taste is to entice children to eat them, thus helping bolster their immune systems… It's evolution. You can't fight it. While he was mostly just trying to get students interested in doing science by an unconventional proposition, Napper's hypothesis, thanks largely to the media, has since morphed into many seeming to think that he actually did some sort of study on this, and that there is evidence to support it."

Scott Napper, who teaches at University of Saskatchewan, theorizes that the mucus in our noses — which traps germs before they get into our body — could help train our immune system by exposing it to germs. He wants to conduct a study in which a study group is introduced to some form of molecule, then have half of the study group pick their noses and eat the contents. The study would gauge the body’s reaction to the molecule and the mucus around it. “I think the challenge would be getting volunteers to participate in this experiment,” he told the Canadian Free Press with a laugh. “ Especially if you didn’t know which group you were going to fall into. ”BEFORE YOU GOPHOTO GALLERYAmazing Anatomies MORE: Booger Eating Benefits Boogers Study On Boogers Nose Picking Boogers Good For You"

Whatever it is expressing will lead you through your own feelings. The actions of the clown represent your spontaneous and outgoing personality. It may also imply that you are being too careless and impulsive. If you have a fear or phobia of clowns, the clown may symbolize an unknown figure who may want to hurt you in some way. This may be someone who is taking advantage of you or not showing you their true self. Acrobat To dream of witnessing acrobats can relate to trepidation about what others may do to prevent you from reaching your goals. If you're performing as an acrobat in your dream, your rivals' schemes will bear down upon you. Victim To dream that you are the victim of a crime is an indication that there are people in your waking life that look to victimize you."

The clown tends to take the most ridiculous or tragic course of actions, so at times can remind us of our own misdirected path. Sometimes the clowns face or clothes are a disguise for pain or sadness, or that you feel you have been made a fool of, or paraded in front of others in a way to be ridiculed. Sometimes this relates to childhood memories. Sometimes the clown is a person with great wisdom to share – wisdom gathered through very full and varied life experience. See: archetype of the fool-clown-trickster. The clown may also appear in dreams of men and women who are meeting and working with their unredeemed self, their animal that needs transforming. In this form the clown ridicules our pretensions, ridiculous pride, and reveals the ways we delude ourselves, so leading the way to becoming a whole person. See: ape-man."

"text": "15 Toe-Tapping Facts About Singin’ in the Rain BY Eric D Snider July 14, 2015Singin’ in the Rain isn’t just an upbeat musical from 1952. It’s also a history lesson about Hollywood in the late 1920s, when silent pictures were giving way to talkies. And of course it’s also a valuable tutorial on how to be an awesome dancer (i.e. be Gene Kelly and Donald O'Connor). It is many things! Here are some facts about the classic musical to enhance your next viewing.1. IT WASN’T ADAPTED FROM A BROADWAY MUSICAL. Many movie musicals of the 1930s, '40s and '50s were based on stage shows, but this wasn’t one of them. Rather, it was a new script, written just for the movie, featuring old songs written for previous movies. Some 30 years later, after the film had become a beloved classic, it was reverse-engineered into a stage musical, premiering in London’s West End in 1983 and subsequently appearing (with revisions and more songs) on Broadway .

Coyote energy is a sign of trouble or good fortune. Most of all, however Coyote arrives in our lives with a smile and a song, acting as a gentle reminder that laughter is truly good medicine.

Also called abuzz term, buzz phrase, vogue word, andfashion word. The second edition of Random House Webster's Unabridged Dictionary defines buzzword as \"\"a word or phrase, often sounding authoritative or technical, that is a vogue term in a particular profession, field of study, popular culture, etc. \"\" In Communication at a Distance , Kaufer and Carley nicely observe that buzzwords \"\"come under attack with the recognition that a person may be trying to pass off for substance or meat the hum of a buzzword's remote implications. \"\" Examples and Observations\"\" For months the [Federal Reserve] used the word ‘ patience ’ to describe its stance toward a rate hike. Having lost ‘patience’ in March, the new buzzword is ‘ flexible .’ As used by the Fed, the terms are essentially synonymous. But get used to hearing ‘flexible.’"

Stine 's famous Goosebumps book series. Starring Dylan Minette and Jack Black as Stine himself, who along with Stine's daughter Hannah, must combat every single one of Stine's creations after Zach and his friend Champ accidentally unleash them from the very books themselves. View the first trailer here. This film contains the following tropes: Adaptational Badass: The monsters seem to be capable of causing a lot more damage than their book counterparts. The Lawn Gnomes, for instance, now throw knives and garden tools, and Dr. Brewer's plant monsters are seen demolishing a neighborhood. In the books, Slappy spent his time bullying children into being his slaves. Here, he leads the other monsters in hunting Stine, is clever enough to cut off the whole town, and casually lists off destroying the town as something fun to do. As they are not technically real, all of the monsters are unkillable. If one is physically destroyed, it will just take a second to regenerate."

The world is so large, so incomprehensible, so unknown; it’s a fragile time, when the learning curve can be both dangerous and beautiful, and every day is like playing Russian roulette with new discoveries. You might have your first kiss, but you might scrape your knee for the first time. There might be a new sweater waiting for you on the edge of your bed, but there might also be a monster in the closet. You might win the spelling bee, but you might get picked last in gym class. It’s a gamble that’s always larger-than-life, mostly because it’s the first time it’s happening in your life. And as you grow up, all of those experiences become a part of you. They inform your passions, your anxieties, and your fears. Fear is a constant evolution, though, and one that traditionally follows a linear path: You learn your fears, you conquer your fears, you keep your fears. Even if you shake that feeling of arachnophobia, you’ll remember why you had it."

Founded in Detroit in 1989, Insane Clown Posse performs a style of hardcore hip hop known as horrorcore and is known for its elaborate live performances. The duo has earned two platinum and five gold albums. According to Nielsen Sound Scan, the entire catalog of the group has sold 6.5 million units in the United States and Canada as of April 2007. [ 1] The group has established a dedicated following called Juggalos numbering in the \"\"tens of thousands\"\". [ 2]Originally known as JJ Boyz and Inner City Posse, the group introduced supernatural - and horror -themed lyrics as a means of distinguishing itself stylistically. The duo founded the independent record label Psychopathic Records with Alex Abbiss as manager, and produced and starred in the feature films Big Money Hustlas and Big Money Rustlas. They formed their own professional wrestling federation, Juggalo Championship Wrestling, and later collaborated with many well-known hip hop and rock musicians. The songs of Insane Clown Posse center thematically on the mythology of the Dark Carnival, a metaphoric limbo in which the lives of the dead are judged by one of several entities. The Dark Carnival is elaborated through a series of stories called Joker's Cards, each of which offers a specific lesson designed to change the \"\"evil ways\"\" of listeners before \"\"the end consumes us all\"\"."

"text": "\"“Wrinkles” the clown has been spotted throughout Naples, Fla., in recent years and become a viral Internet sensation. He’s a 65-year-old New England native who enjoys clowning. ( Photo courtesy of WXII 12)Desperate parents in Naples, Fla., have a new weapon in their arsenal for reining in misbehaving kids. His name is “Wrinkles,” and he’s a creepy-looking clown who has been spotted at gatherings, in public and outside people’s homes for the past few years, according to the Palm Beach Post. Wrinkles’s real face remains hidden beneath a distinctive mask with large black eye holes and receding white hair. He favors a polka dot onesie with black rubber gloves and he’s rarely seen without a bundle of colorful balloons in one hand. A slight paunch gives him the unnerving appearance of a menacing, man-size baby who lurks in sewers and children’s closets. [ This barber will publicly shame your misbehaving kid with an old man’s haircut]For a few hundred bucks cash, he told The Washington Post, he’ll make an appearance at your party or gathering, prank your friend or even scare your misbehaving kid straight, as he was recently hired to do by one mother looking for a way to reform her trouble-making 12-year-old. “He was scared of clowns and I showed up across the street from him at the bus stop and he just started crying in front of his friends and ran home,” Wrinkles told The Post, somewhat remorsefully, in his heavy New England accent. “ His mother called back a few days later and said ‘Thank you!’"

"text": "\"He has been nominated for an Emmy and a Golden Globe and has won people's choice for 2011 for best Actor. Actually, he has done more than that; Adam Sandler has accomplished many things. \"\" Adam Sandler was born on September 9, 1966, in Brooklyn, New York, to electrical engineer, Stanley and nursery school teacher, Judy. When Sandler was five, the family moved to Manchester, New Hampshire, where Sandler and his older siblings, Scott, Valerie, and Elizabeth, were raised in a Jewish family in a small-town, working-class environment. For reasons elusive even to him, Sandler, by the end of the sixth grade, had become the class clown for a receptive audience of his peers and had begun to develop his hallmark humor. By the age of seventeen, Sandler was performing stand-up in clubs and at universities on a regular basis. He performed as a street musician, doing Bruce Springsteen numbers, and at the same time managed to attend classes at New York University (NYU). Before graduating in 1991 with a bachelor of fine arts degree, Sandler found his way into the entertainment industry: In 1987, his freshman year at NYU, Sandler landed a recurring role as Smitty, friend to Theo Huxtable, on The Cosby Show (1984). Sandler's first film role, two years later, was in the unreleased Babes Ahoy. However, it was his stand-up work, which he took to the clubs of Los Angeles, that gave Sandler his big break."

A cat express feminine qualities and may represent the positive, creative and sensuous aspects of femininity. If the cat in your dream is aggressive, this may show that you are having problems with the feminine side of yourself. You may be taking a ‘catty’ attitude or have a negative view of women in general. Mystical Meaning: In mythology, cats were associated with the old pagan fertility gods. They were a symbol of the Earth Mother and represented the power and wisdom of Nature. Cats were sacred to the Egyptians as custodians of the souls of the dead.

"text": "Clown Fish Facts For Kids | Clown Fish Habitat & Diet Through this article I’ll be validating some of the essential clown fish facts for kids that are rarely known elsewhere. Clown fish belongs to the subfamily Amphiprioninae in the Pomacentridae family. These species are considered to be symbiotic mutualisms with sea anemones in the wild. Although the physical coloring predominantly depends upon the type of species, mostly clown fish exhibits orange, blackish, yellow, and reddish color together with the white blotches. The largest clown fish can grow to a size of about 18 cm (7.1 inches), with the smallest measuring at 10 cm (3.9 inches). Clown Fish Facts For Kids Clown fish is also known as Damselfish, anemonefish or Demoiselles. Unlike orange-colored garibaldi (Hypsypops rubicunda) and blue chromis (Chromis cyanae) which exhibit bright color appearance, sergent major (Abudefduf saxatillis) reflects stripes and patches. Nearly all damselfish are no longer than 6 inches (15 cm). A close observation of clown fish displays flattened body coupled with projecting dorsal fins, with the front one is spinous. The very nature of the clown fish family allows them to make use of pectoral fins in a paddle-like manner."

"text": "\"A Beginner's Guide to Keeping Anemones This is short beginners guide on how chose and keep anemones - It is only the author's experience/opinion and it cannot be guaranteed that this will be relevant for everyone or anyone at all. This is because anemones are as individual as you or I, and one can tolerate high water flow, another of same will not - it's just the way they are. Remember that you are taking a creature, which in general opinion is hard to keep, out of the wild, out of the ocean. If you desire to keep one of these creatures you find out as much as you can about them. If you find you just can't keep these creatures - STOP. They are not an inexhaustible commodity; they are ancient animals which may live for hundreds of years in the wild, sustaining many generations of clownfish families. That is until a keen reef keeper comes along, and kills it within a matter of weeks!! There is no shame in not being able to keep anemones - some, even keepers who can maintain the most exotic of SPS corals, cannot keep anemones. Before you buy an anemone, do as much research as you can on the animal in general, and the species you want to keep. Most aquarist use the \"\"12 month rule\"\" when considering if their tank is matured enough to keep anemones."

"text": "\"Pets Fish How long is a clownfish's lifespan? Follow Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: In captivity their expected life span in 3-6 years. This published limited life span is due to the inability of most aquarium owners to provide for these fish and they don't die from old age! Usually they are in too small of a system and die from unstable water parameters, disease, lack of oxygen, ammonia, or nitrate poisoning. If properly cared for their expected life span in captivity can easily be 15-20 years or more, depending on the species. For Example, I've had my breeding pair of maroon clowns (Frank and Ethel) for about 12 years now. My female is only about 4-5 inches and still could grow more which indicates to me that she is still fairly young. My wholesaler has a 27 year old pair of clarkii. I've known customers with over 20-year-old percula and ocellaris. Source (s): Fish Store Owner The Rav1n · 8 years ago1 0 Comment Clownfish Lifespan Source (s):https://shrink.im/a0Qzg? ·"

By Donna Heiderstadt Updated 05/16/17Share Pin Email•••With hundreds of species of fish, shellfish, crustaceans and turtles, the waters surrounding the 118 islands that make up Tahiti teem with amazing subaquatic sights. You'll have to don scuba gear to catch glimpses of some of the larger and more impressive specimens, but just snorkeling from your overwater bungalow on Tahiti, Moorea or Bora Bora, you are apt to spy some pretty amazing species-from delicate reef fish to adorable sea turtles to small black-tipped reef sharks. Here's a look at 25 of the most common sea creatures you'll see when you take the plunge: Angelfish: Also with black, white and yellow-striped bodies, these flat fish have a distinctive long fluttering top fin and a protruding nose. Southern stingrays: They love the shallow waters of Tahiti's lagoons and are one of the highlight's of the popular \"\"shark and stingray feeding\"\" tours, one of the top things to do in Tahiti. Barracuda: These long, slender, silver fish have very sharp teeth and are known to be aggressive, so snorkelers and divers are advised to steer clear if they spot one. Black-tipped reef sharks: Also abundant in the lagoon, these sleek sharks, called mao mauri in Tahitian, have distinctive black tips on their fins and average about five feet in length. Smaller black tips can often be spotted swimming near overwater bungalows and mid-size sharks are typical during \"\"shark and stingray feeding\"\" expeditions. Butterflyfish: These vibrant black, white and yellow striped fish are found all over Tahiti's lagoons, often congregating in large schools. Clown fish: Immortalized in \"\"Finding Nemo,\"\" these small, typically orange-striped fish, also known as anemone fish, are often spotted darting amid the fluttering tentacles of the poisonous tentacles of the sea anemone, to which they are immune."

Fortunately for those of us who enjoy keeping Ocellaris clownfish, they are quite easy to keep healthy and happy in a well maintained aquarium. In captivity, False Percula Clownfish can live for over a decade and will grow to almost become part of the family. They are active, engaging fish and will follow you as you walk by the tank. In fact, many people can actually feed their clownfish by hand. Clownfish Tank Setup The first thing many people want to know is how large of an aquarium is needed to keep clownfish. That really depends on a few factors, but generally, clownfish will do well in tanks that are quite small. Nano tanks of about 8 to 10 gallons are on the small end for the Ocellaris Clownfish but the fish will still do quite well in a tank that size. In fact, some breeders will put pairs in a 10 gallon tank for spawning. They do not usually need a lot of room to swim like some fish do, as they will often swim up and down in a relatively small area much of the time."

"text": "\"Pet Helpful » Fish & Aquariums » Freshwater Pets Large Aquarium Fish for the New Aquarist Updated on August 25, 2017thebeast02 more Contact Author Please don't do this!Aquarium owners who are new to the hobby can often be overwhelmed by the sheer amount of choices in front of them when it comes time to stock a new tank. Often times without doing the proper research, these newbies will often go to one of the larger chain pet stores looking for a new aquatic friend or two, which is when the problems usually begin. Unless that buyer is specifically looking for a certain fish, often times the employees at these pet stores are going to push whatever fish are on \"\"sale\"\" or that they have a \"\"special\"\" on. This is not to say that all of them do this. I have a few personal friends who are adamantly against this, but at the same time they want to keep their jobs and must do what the managers ask of them. Another route is when the new fish owner picks out the type of fish that they like and the employee can give misguided information on just how large the fish may get at full size. The myth that the fish grow to the size of their surroundings is just that, a myth. They stop growing because they are dying. A fish that would normally grow to 10 inches but stops at 6 in a cramped tank will not live to its full life span. I hope to provide a little knowledge to those new to the hobby about fish you should probably avoid, despite the fact that many of them are readily available at most pet stores."

One of the critters you’ll see the most at Sandos Caracol Eco Experience Resort and Sandos Playacar Beach Experience Resort is known as the “coati”. The coati lives all across North and South America, in regions like Central America and Brazil, and they’re also an important part of wildlife in Mexico. Since it spans so many cultures, the coati has several names in each country, derived from languages like Portuguese, Guarani, Spanish and even Mayan: Coati Coatimundi Pizot Hog-nosed raccoon Tejón Moncún Cusumbo Cuchucho Cholugo Gato Solo Wildlife in Mexico is truly diverse, and the coati is no exception. There are four types of coati living throughout the Americas in a wide variety of different habitats, including rainforest, jungle, mangrove, mountain and even desert. The white-nosed coati is what you’ll find at our Riviera Maya resorts, and it lives in Mexico and Central America. The Cozumel Island coati is a rarer species only found on the island of Cozumel, which can be seen just off the coast of our resorts in the Riviera Maya area. The ring-tailed coati lives in the jungles of South America, and the mountain coati resides in the Andes Mountains of South America. Coatis are in the same family as raccoons, although they usually have a longer snout, a slimmer torso and a more reddish tone to their fur. Known for their intelligence and their curiosity, coatis are a fascinating part of wildlife in Mexico."

Clinically, canine distemper is characterized by:a diphasic feverleukopenia GI and respiratory catarrh, andfrequently, pneumonic and neurologic complications, , Its epidemiology is complicated by the large number of species susceptible to infection. The disease is seen in Canidae (dog, fox, wolf, raccoon dog), Mustelidae (ferret, mink, skunk, wolverine, marten, badger, otter), most Procyonidae (raccoon, coatimundi), some Viveridae (binturong, palm civet), Ailuridae (red panda), Ursidae (bear), Elephantidae (Asian elephant), primates (Japanese monkey), and large Felidae. Domestic dogs (including feral populations) are considered to be the reservoir species in most, if not all, locations. Antigenic drift and strain diversity is increasingly documented in association with outbreaks in wild species, domestic dogs, and exotic animals held in zoos and parks.

"text": "Food Web of a Harpy Eagle Food Web A bird's feet determine what it eats. Looking at a Harpy Eagle's feet, it is unquestionable that these birds were built for hunting reasonably large-sized prey. Their powerful legs and feet and long sharp talons are designed to catch prey that would be unimaginable for most other birds. Harpy Eagles have a varied diet. They are able to fly between trees and branches with amazing agility and maneuverability for their large size and are specialized at catching arboreal animals, or animals that spend all or much of their lives in trees. This can include iguanas, parrots, porcupines, coatimundis, and raccoons. Though the birds prefer to hunt high up the trees, they will also hunt ground dwelling animals such as the two-toed sloth which is one of their primary food sources. The food web of a Harpy Eagle consists of a tertiary consumer, being the Harpy Eagle, a primary consumer being the Pygmy Sloth, two secondary consumers the Squirrel Monkey and Cappuccino Monkey, a single primary producer, the Cecropia Tree and two detrivores (meaning they eat decaying or dead matter), Earth Worms and Termites. Importance of the Harpy Eagle in it's rainforest ecosystem Harpy eagles are apex (top of the food chain) predators of their rain forest ecosystems. Like most predators, they aid in keeping prey populations under control."

Celebrities such as Paris Hilton have been known to have a kinkajou as a pet but the rich and famous aren't the only ones who find these animals adorable. Making the decision to care for a kinkajou isn't to be taken lightly though, as these critters require a very special owner. Names: Honey bear, nightwalker, Potos flavus (but several subspecies exist and are kept as pets), kinkajou Life Span: Typically 20 to 25 years but some have been recorded to live over 40 years Size: Kinkajou sizes vary somewhat among the subspecies but in general, the body length usually falls somewhere between 16 and 25 inches and the tail is another 15 to 20 inches. Kinkajous usually weigh up to about 7 pounds but some subspecies are smaller. Kinkajous In the Wild Kinkajous are nocturnal tree-dwellers and in the wild, they spend most of their time in the rainforest canopies. They have prehensile tails and can turn their feet backward, which helps them with climbing and running up trees. Although they somewhat resemble monkeys, they are actually more closely related to raccoons, coati (coatimundi), and red pandas. The kinkajou also indulges on fruit and honey by utilizing it's long tongue while climbing in the trees which is how it got its nickname, the honey bear. Kinkajous are found throughout Central and South America."

The puma goes by a few different names, including panther, mountain lion and cougar. The puma is said to hold the record for the animal with the most number of names! Pumas are nocturnal and have been described to be more similar to the smaller domestic cats than big ones such as lions. One could say they are the largest of the small cats, although they are the fourth largest of all cats, with males usually measuring around 2.5m in length and weighing around 62 kg (155 pounds). The sounds that they make are also more similar to those of small felines than the roars of the big cats. They communicate through growls, chirps and whistles. Pumas are usually solitary animals, keeping mainly to themselves. They can swim if they have to, but usually avoid the water."

Work Environment Before you go any further into questions about how the potential cocktail waitress would handle customer matters and interactions with other employees, ensure that she's comfortable with the work environment. Ask questions, such as, \"\"Have you ever worked in an upscale lounge environment like this?\"\" or \"\"How do you feel about the casual atmosphere of our bar?\"\" Questions like this may also gauge the type of clientele she's accustomed to serving, but you could ask specifically, \"\"Describe the clientele that you've been accustomed to in previous jobs and what you like best about each type. \"\" Co-Worker Relationships\"\"Who do you think is most important to the establishment: the bartender, bar back or waitress?\"\" is a question that provides insight into her ability to work as a team player."

I’m not going to explain myself. Just know that it’s a fact. Beverly Hills is arguably the crown jewel of Bravo’s most successful franchise. It doesn’t have the highest ratings—that honor goes to Atlanta—but it best encapsulates the themes of the Real Housewives brand: abject wealth and “real” drama. As is the case with with every series in the franchise, Beverly Hills is an ensemble, but anyone who watches knows that the closest thing the show has to a star is Lisa Vanderpump. In many ways, Lisa Vanderpump is the perfect Real Housewife. For starters, she’s actually married. Equally important, she’s very, very wealthy. Lisa always manages to be very much involved in the drama, but somehow floats just slightly above the fray, in a cloud of pink silk and diamonds."

As of May 2011, the average of all hourly rates of pay for servers was $10.05, and the median wage reported was $8.93. Half of all waitresses reported average hourly wages of between $8.25 and $10.61. The lowest-paid 10 percent of servers earned an average of $7.73 per hour or less, while the highest-paid 10 percent of servers reported average hourly wages of $14.34 or more.

They are:WhoWhomWhoseWhichThatA Word of Caution:Sometimes these words function as dependent signals, but sometimes they don�t.Example:How did you come up with that? (\"\"That\"\" doesn�t introduce a clause. It identifies something. If you really want to know, it is a demonstrative pronoun. But don�t worry your noggin about that now. Just be aware that these dependent signals can sometimes do other things.)Let�s look at a couple of examples:I love sentences which extol the virtues of English teachers. (The adjective clause is underlined. It modifies the object \"\"sentences.\"\")Students whom I admire want to become English teachers. (Again, the adjective clause is underlined and modifies the subject \"\"students.\"\")RememberA noun is a subject or an object, so adjectives will always modify subjects or objects.Let�s look at these sentences a little more closely.I love sentences which extol the virtues of English teachers. (The verb of this clause is \"\"extol.\"\" The subject is \"\"which\"\" because it stands for \"\"sentences.\"\")Students whom I admire want to become English teachers. (The verb of this clause is \"\"admire.\"\" The subject of the clause is \"\"I.\"\" The object is \"\"whom.\"\")If you are well fed, well rested, and psychologically at peace with yourself, you have no doubt come to an astonishing realization.Dependent signals which introduce adjective clauses perform a double duty. They introduce the clause and they also function inside the clause as a subject or object.Therefore, I call these little devils (sorry, I mean these relative pronouns), double duty dependent signals.Again, the double duty dependent signals which introduce adjective clauses are:WhoWhomWhoseWhichThatBut what about these examples?The grade I received was a shock. (We don�t see any dependent signal do we? But we know we have two clauses because we have two subject-verb combinations�\"\"grade/was,\"\" \"\"I/received.\"\")The book I borrowed was full of grammatical wisdom. (No dependent signal here either. But we have two subject verb combinations�\"\"book/was\"\" and \"\"I/borrowed\"\"�so we know we have two clauses.)Look at them now:The grade [that] I received was a shock.The book [that] I borrowed was full of grammatical wisdom. (Here�s the point. Sometimes the dependent signal [usually \"\"that\"\"] is implied. Mentally insert it, and the sentence will be easier to analyze.)There�s only one more thing about adjective clauses that you need to know. It�s something you�ve never, ever understood, and I�m going to explain it so that you�ll never, ever forget it. (So try to contain your joy!)Some adjective clauses need to be set off by commas and others don�t.Now here�s the part you�ve never understood� non-restrictive clauses need commas andrestrictive clauses don�t.\"\"What in the Sam Hill is the difference?\"\" you say.It is this:Some adjective clauses are like gossip, they provide additional detail about someone (or something) whose identity we already know. Put commas around those.Examples:My English teacher, who wears old fashioned ties, is laughed at by the students. (The adjective clause is underlined. It doesn�t identify the English teacher; it just provides a gossipy sort of detail about him. Set these off with commas.)My English book, which is a monument of boredom, is used mainly as a door stop. (Once again, the adjective clause is underlined. It doesn�t identify the English book, it just provides a gossipy, editorial comment about it. Set this clause off with a comma.)Now take a look at these:The English teachers that I like best forget to go to class. (This isn�t pure gossip any longer. The writer doesn�t like all English teachers equally well. The adjective clause identifies which ones he likes best. Because it helps identify, don�t set if off with commas. )Anyone who reads all of this will go away happier and wiser. (Once again, this clause identifies who will go away happier and wiser. It�s not gossip, it�s essential information, so don�t put commas around it.)Return to grammar reviewReturn to composition pageReturn to home page\"",

"text": "\"Cosmopolitan Cocktail Twitter Google Email Words by: Simon Difford The Cosmopolitan is one of those cocktails that has had various incarnations through the ages - some of them, quite probably, independent of one another. During the 1990s, the familiar blend of cranberry, citrus and vodka was one of the most popular cocktails in New York and London. Our Cosmopolitan recipe uses equal parts vodka and triple sec with more cranberry juice than most. The extra fruitiness from the increased triple sec and cranberry means this recipe also works well with unflavoured vodka so is useful if citrus flavoured vodka is not to hand. Story The first reference to a Cosmopolitan cocktail appears in the 1934 book 'Pioneers of Mixing at Elite Bars'. This Cosmopolitan recipe includes triple sec and is very similar to today's drink, only with lemon in place of lime, gin in place of vodka and raspberry syrup in place of cranberry. The raspberry gives the drink a pale pink appearance not dissimilar from its modern day namesake. See the 1934 Cosmopolitan recipe. A likely early ancestor of the modern day Cosmopolitan is the Harpoon Cocktail, a drink promoted by Ocean Spray during the 1960s. A 1968 bottle label from Ocean Spray's archives lists the Harpoon as a \"\"new cocktail\"\" with a recipe specifying 2 ounces Ocean Spray cranberry and 1 ounce vodka or light rum served \"\"over the rocks or tall with soda\"\"."

My only major issue has to do with the toasters, ancient and slow, really slow, some are set for bagels so they heat only one side, but no signs that warn you which slots are set only for bagels until the toast pops up after an excruciating wait of too long, and you get half a toast! I suggest they buy the contnuous motion toasters which are fast. Oh, and you can't just leave your toasts toasting and then come back to get them, because I did, and when I counted 5 minutes, came back and the toasts were gone. Really upsetting! There is nothing I hate more in brunches than waiting an inordinate amount of time for anything, much less for an effing toast! Otherwise, and aside from the details I mentioned, the Sunday brunch is ok, a little pricey, my wife and I bill was $42 plus tip, we don't drink neither were offered Mimosas, my wife had OJ and one plate with the usual eggs, sausage, bacon home fries, and fruit, I had 2 coffee refills, a shrimp and veggie omelette with toast, no roast beef, got bacon. You decide if $42 is worth the brunch. See More Debbie Conroy Fleming· February 26, 2018We have been to the Waterway Cafe several times. The food is always excellent as is the service."

There are specified amounts of tips per particular positions which are advised to guests prior to embarkation and which vary from one cruise line to another. Such personnel are waiters, busboys /assistant waiters, bar waiters/waitresses, bartenders, cocktail waitresses, etc. Tipping personnel have a small base salary. Most of their earnings are tips.

Non-tipping personnel Applicants who do not have enough experience or do not have a very good command of English tend to be hired as non-tipping staff.

"text": "Related Articles1Cocktail Waitress Duties & Responsibilities2How to Get a Part-Time Cocktail Waitress Job Without Experience3Typical Work Shifts for a Waitress4The Average Pay Rate Per Hour for a Waitress A cocktail waitress serves drinks in settings such as bars, nightclubs, casinos and resorts. The typical pay for a cocktail waitress varies depending upon the demographics and region where the job is located, as well as the hours worked and the type of establishment. Cocktail waitresses usually work for an hourly wage and tips rather than salaries, and can either earn individual tips or work on a shared system where tips are split between waiters, bartenders and hostesses. Average Salary The median salary for a cocktail waitress in the United States is $15,261 per year, according to national data. This number can vary greatly, however, depending on location, type of venue, and benefits offered. According to the Fair Labor Standards Act, an employer can consider tips as part of wages, but the employer must pay at least $2.13 an hour in direct wages. Some cocktail waitresses are offered a base hourly wage that is higher. Due to the low median figure, it is likely that many cocktail waitresses work on a part-time basis. Location Matters Location means a lot in terms of average annual income for servers, waitresses, bartenders and others working in the hospitality industry. In a tourist-heavy area like Miami or Las Vegas, a cocktail waitress can expect to make more than in cities that are not tourist destinations."

Answer by Debbysway Confidence votes 12I get $5.70 an hour but i have to tip out the bartender the hostess the expo and the bus help....i work in a busy place so i make about 20 dollars per hour which is pretty nice.. On an average shift i make about 100-120 an hour. Answer This depends heavily on where you work: your geographic location and the restaurant. In the United States, most waitresses earn the minimum hourly wage plus tips, which can bring their hourly rate to $10/hour, $15/hour, or more. It also greatly depends on your attitude. No matter what a waitress should always be nice and sweet. This can improve your hourly wage from $10 to $20 or more. In India a waitress in a five star hotel gets about Rs. 20000/- I get paid $2.40 an hour plus tips."

Medical specialists are always in demand The two main national certifications today are AAPC's Certified Professional Coder (CPC) credential, and AHIMA's Certified Coding Specialist (CCS) credential. You need to pass any ONE of these proctored exams anywhere in the US (or selected centers abroad) to get certified. The passing score on the CPC exam is 70% and it's a 5 hour 40 minute exam with 150 multiple choice questions. You will be tested on topics that include ICD-10-CM, HCPCS, medical terminology, anatomy, anesthesia, radiology, pathology, medicine, evaluation & management. Remember that both CPC and CCS-P are tough exams and around 40-50% students do not pass it on the first attempt. That's why you need to be well prepared. Here's the recommended order in which you should proceed: Start with the CPC or CCS-P certification exam. Either of these credentials will help you get a job in a doctor's or physician's office with a starting salary of $34,000-43,000 per year."

CCA is a professional designation offered by the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) for health information technicians specializing in medical coding, though it also refers to a career title. Read on to find out about education, certification, and career information about medical coders with the CCA designation. Schools offering Insurance Billing & Coding Specialist degrees can also be found in these popular choices . Duties and Responsibilities of a Certified Coding Assistant As a medical coder, you are responsible for reviewing patients' medical records and applying codes based on diagnosis and treatment to any pertinent information for reimbursement and research purposes. You may also be responsible for maintaining medical records. You need to be aware of how to code specific medical procedures and diagnoses using one or more industry-standard coding systems. Coding systems allow healthcare providers to easily ascertain how much they can expect to be reimbursed through a patient's insurance provider. They also expedite monitoring of healthcare outcomes and incidence of certain medical conditions, treatments, or similar factors. The Certified Coding Associate (CCA) designation labels you as an entry-level medical coder with basic coding competencies qualified to work in a physician's office, hospital, or other medical setting."

"text": "CCA Frequently Asked Questions Why has AHIMA created this credential? AHIMA recognizes that the demand for coders has never been greater-and this need is expected to continue for some years to come. By creating an entry-level coding credential based on job analysis standards and state-of-the-art test construction, AHIMA aims to increase the number of qualified new coders. The result? A larger pool of qualified coders for employers to choose from; certified coders doing a better job managing health information; and recognition for AHIMA members as industry experts and leaders in clinical coding. With plenty of jobs available, why does a new coder need the CCA? New coders who earn the CCA will immediately demonstrate their competency in the field, even if they don't have much job experience. Earning a CCA demonstrates a commitment to coding even for those who are new in the field. CCA holders will also distinguish themselves from non-credentialed coders and those who hold credentials from other organizations that do not require the higher level of expertise necessary to earn AHIMA certification. How does the CCA compare to the CCS and CCS-P?"

"text": "Mastering Medical Coding is Not as Hard as You Think By Brianna Flavin on 11/16/2016 22 Comments There’s no denying that healthcare careers are complicated. Healthcare professionals attempt to understand, interpret and diagnose problems in the complex human body. Even a health information technician (HIT) career, which doesn’t involve working directly with patients, requires a strong understanding of the various codes assigned to different medical diagnoses. There are several different careers in HIT to choose from. If you’re looking for an in-demand option that you could launch with less than two years of schooling, medical coding might be the perfect fit. * But you can help but wonder: Is medical coding hard? Learning the ropes as a medical coder may not be a walk in the park, but it’s not rocket science, either. We asked experts in the field to provide their insights on the challenging aspects of mastering medical coding and what may not be as hard as you think. What exactly is medical coding? Medical coding is a step in the medical billing process that assigns codes to insurance claims from a patient visiting a healthcare facility."

"text": "For Healthcare Professionals Healthcare Compensation Training & Education How to Become a Medical Coder By Andrea Clement Santiago Updated June 29, 2017Share Pin Email Print Lisa Bodvar / Getty Images Medical coders work in the billing office, or “back office” of medical practices or hospitals. Medical coders help to complete, review, and process medical claims to help physician practices and hospitals get reimbursed from insurance companies for services and facilities provided to patients. Each medical procedure and patient encounter has a number, or CPT code, associated with it which corresponds to another code for a diagnosis (an ICD code). This helps insurance companies account for and track the money they reimburse to physicians and practices, to help prevent fraudulent medical claims or errors in payment. Skills Required Medical coders need to work well with numbers, and also should have a great attention to detail. While much of the job entails administrative tasks such as reviewing, processing, and submitting medical claims, some interpersonal skills are necessary. At times the medical coder may have to obtain additional information from a physician or other medical provider in the office. Also, the medical coder may have to contact insurance companies regarding questions about claims. Medical coders should also be comfortable working with computers and various types of medical coding and billing software programs. Educational Requirements and Professional Certifications To become a medical biller or coder, you must have a high school diploma and pass an accredited program in medical coding."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search A clinical coder – also known as clinical coding officer, diagnostic coder, medical coder or medical records technician – is a health information professional whose main duties are to analyse clinical statements and assign standard codes using a classification system. The data produced are an integral part of health information management, and are used by local and national governments, private healthcare organizations and international agencies for various purposes, including medical and health services research, epidemiological studies, health resource allocation, case mix management, public health programming, medical billing, and public education. For example, a clinical coder may use a set of published codes on medical diagnoses and procedures, such as the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) or the Common Coding System for Healthcare Procedures (HCPCS), for reporting to the health insurance provider of the recipient of the care. [ 1] [2] The use of standard codes allows insurance providers to map equivalencies across different service providers who may use different terminologies or abbreviations in their written claims forms, and be used to justify reimbursement of fees and expenses. The codes may cover topics related to diagnoses, procedures, pharmaceuticals or topography. The medical notes may also be divided into specialities for example cardiology, gastroenterology, nephrology, neurology or orthopedic care. A clinical coder therefore requires a good knowledge of medical terminology, anatomy and physiology, a basic knowledge of clinical procedures and diseases and injuries and other conditions, medical illustrations, clinical documentation (such as medical or surgical reports and patient charts), legal and ethical aspects of health information, health data standards, classification conventions, and computer- or paper-based data management, usually as obtained through formal education and/or on-the-job training.

"text": "How Much Do Medical Coders Make Published: Monday, April 09, 2012Tagged: medical coding careers , pay scale , salary The typical salary for medical coders varies widely. There is no one good answer but there are ways of breaking it down. The absolute average salary for medical coders is somewhere in the low to mid $40,000 range. Nation-wide (according to the AAPC Salary Survey of 2011) the average coder made a few thousand dollars more than $40,000 per year however this varies by geographic region and by type of coder. On the west coast a medical coder makes more. A California medical coder for instance makes approximately $57,000 annually. The entire west coast coders on average make in the mid-$50,000. On the other end of the spectrum however medical coders in the state of Kentucky only make on average around $37,000 annually and coders in the inland south on the whole make on average under $40,000. The other main differential between high paid coders and low paid coders is their certification level. Those coders who held CPC certifications made on average around $46,000 per year compared to around $40,000 per year for non-CPC certification holders or CPC-A holders."

"text": "\"Medical billing is the process of submitting and following up on claims with health insurance companies in order to receive payment for services rendered by a healthcare provider. Medical billing translates a healthcare service into a billing claim. The responsibility of the medical biller in a healthcare facility is to follow the claim to ensure the practice receives reimbursement for the work the providers perform. A knowledgeable biller can optimize revenue performance for the practice. Is Medical Coding the Same as Medical Billing? No. The main responsibility of a medical coder is to review clinical statements and assign standard codes using CPT ®, ICD-10-CM, and HCPCS Level II classification systems. Medical billers, on the other hand, process and follow up on claims sent to health insurance companies for reimbursement of services rendered by a healthcare provider. The medical coder and medical biller may be the same person or may work with each other to ensure invoices are paid properly.

For example, if an X-ray is performed or blood is taken, those services would also be represented by medical codes on your bill. There are thousands of medical codes – one for nearly every type of health care service, procedure and even for medical equipment. Medical coders spend their days reviewing medical records to assign these codes and ensure that the health care providers they support are properly reimbursed for services. Physicians and hospitals depend on accurate coding to receive proper reimbursement, making the role of the coder a valued one. Coding accurately is not easy. The coder must carefully read the doctor’s and nurse’s notes to precisely determine the services received by the patient. The coder must also understand private payer policies and government regulations for accurate coding and billing. By some estimates, inaccurate or incomplete coding costs the doctors thousands of dollars each year in lost payments. Without competent coders, providers run the risk of losing revenue."

"text": "Get a Gig as a Hospital Outpatient Coder Outpatient facilities are medical facilities that cater to patients that suffer from acute or chronic medical problems that do not require a lengthy hospital stay. Patients that visit outpatient facilities typically don’t need to stay overnight, or even for more than a couple hours. Some common outpatient facilities include physician offices and clinics, although hospitals also have outpatient wards as well. A hospital outpatient coder is a medical coder that assigns medical codes to medical procedures and services, which are then used for statistical and billing purposes. These medical coders typically work in outpatient wards in general and specialty hospitals. Unlike outpatient medical coders, who need to perform coding services for every day a patient stays in a hospital, outpatient coders usually only need to assign codes to specific procedures and services that were performed during the patients’ appointments. Also, outpatient medical coders in hospitals typically use Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes, which are codes for various medical services and procedures. The growth rate for medical coders, including hospital outpatient coders, is expected to grow faster than average, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This is primarily due to the abundance of aging Baby Boomers and advances in medical technology. Because of this, qualified and driven medical coders will have no trouble finding employment in the next decade, even during troubling economic times."

Of course you might also have tried a few yourself and chances are you will have found them to be variably successful. The question is then, what is in energy drinks that makes them worth the price? And if it's just caffeine... couldn't you just get the same from coffee? Here we will look at how energy drinks are different from coffee and whether or not you need them. Coffee for Sports Coffee and energy drinks do share caffeine in common. However what you need to recognize first and foremost is that coffee has higher concentrations of caffeine which will have more of a sudden impact on the central nervous system. In short this means that coffee will elevate your heart rate to a much greater degree than an energy drink, and this can make it far less appropriate for doing sports as it can place a strain on the heart (exercise itself already increases the heart rate). Meanwhile this amount of caffeine would be likely to dehydrate you as it is a diuretic and that of course in turn means that it is actually detrimental in this sense to your workout. Further, coffee is quite different from an energy drink in its consistency and the way it sits in the stomach."

Americans and people all around the world love their caffeine fix, be it from coffee or energy drinks and sodas and if they skip that regular cup of coffee or glass of soda that they usually take, experts warn that they might start to experience symptoms of caffeine withdrawal. Neuropharmacologists call caffeine a drug that acts as a mild stimulant that blocks receptors in the brain that can dilate blood vessels causing headaches and other symptoms. It is possible to become dependent on caffeine after just a week or two of continued use. You shouldn’t be surprised if you start to feel the symptoms almost immediately after you quit. Caffeine stimulates the release of stress hormones and adrenaline which give you that energy boost but, as you well know, this surge of energy doesn’t last very long and you eventually crash and seek out more caffeine afterward. Therein lies the problem as this continued dependence on caffeine wears down your adrenal glands. Can caffeine withdrawal cause headaches? Yes, you can get headaches from caffeine withdrawal."

By Dr. Sanjay Mehta, Centra State Medical Center | November 5, 2014 12:15am ETMORECredit: Soda photo via Shutterstock Dr. Sanjay Mehta is division chief of the Pediatric Emergency Department at Centra State Medical Center in Freehold, N. J. He contributed this article to Live Science's Expert Voices: Op-Ed & Insights. A Starbucks frozen drink after school, a can of Coke with dinner, and a chocolate bar for dessert — how much caffeine is too much for kids? Ideally, children under 12 shouldn't be consuming caffeine at all. We now know that it doesn't stunt kids' growth, but caffeine is still a drug — and it's important for parents to be vigilant about what their kids are drinking. This may be easier said than done, however. While research shows that soda consumption has fallen among kids in recent years, coffee and caffeine-laden \"\"energy drinks\"\" are becoming more and more popular with the under-18 crowd. Energy drinks , which often taste sweet and appealing to kids, are a particular concern: The American Academy of Pediatrics even issued a 2011 warning stating children and teens shouldn't consume them. The reason? Caffeine is a powerful stimulant."

No, eating one meal per day won’t make you fat. It won’t make you lose all your muscle. And it won’t screw your metabolism into the ground. But it does allow you to feast like a fucking king every single night while eating your favorite foods. And no, this isn’t a scam and there isn’t even any secret “guru” magic behind it. It’s really just common sense. But fitness and common sense is a lost art these days. If you follow it, eating once per day JUST WORKS. And if you’ve struggled with more traditional diets that make you eat 3-6 meals per day, then this may be the most stupidly simple way for you to successfully lose weight, ever!If you’ve dreamed of eating 24 ounce steaks, with a mountain fries and ice cream, EVERY SINGLE night while still losing fat and building muscle then read on."

By an act of Congress, dietary supplements are regulated less strictly than conventional foods, so much so that some beverage manufacturers would much prefer to have their products labeled as dietary supplements than foods, energy shots, for example. Under the law, the FDA pretty much has to keep hands off of supplements, except when something egregious happens, like people getting sick or dying. The FDA is now trying to clarify the difference between beverages that are supplements and those that are drugs."

"text": "Caffeine – The Facts What is Caffeine? Caffeine is an ingredient that can be found naturally in the leaves, seeds or fruit of more than 60 plants worldwide and is well known for its stimulating effect. Some of the most commonly known sources of caffeine include coffee beans, tea leaves, cocoa beans, kola nuts, and guarana plants. Caffeine can also be produced synthetically and subsequently added to various foods and beverages, including tea, coffee, cola, chocolate, energy drinks, and iced coffee. Both natural and synthetic forms of caffeine are enjoyed safely by consumers around the world every day. Where do Australians get most of their caffeine from? The single biggest contributor to caffeine in the Australian diet comes from coffee, whether it’s instant coffee, coffee from a coffee machine at home or work, or barista made coffee from a chain store, or your local café or restaurant. In fact, an August 2013 Galaxy Poll of 1,105 Australians aged 15-49 showed that over 50 % of all caffeine intake comes from coffee products. The remaining share of caffeine intake, is drawn from a variety of sources including cola at 18%, tea at 16%, and energy drinks at 5% but there’s no one single contributor that’s as large as coffee. THE SAFETY OF CAFFEINE Caffeine is a comprehensively studied ingredient in the food supply, with centuries of safe use."

"text": "\"Science Caffeine Safe Limits: Calculate Your Safe Daily Dose Your Weight Pounds Kilos A safe caffeine limit is the amount of caffeine a person can consume without experiencing any negative caffeine overdose symptoms. It’s difficult to assign an exact amount for everyone because people can have different sensitivities or reactions to caffeine based on age, medical history, and tolerance. However, there is enough research available to make a recommendation based on an individual’s weight. Caffeine Amounts for Healthy Adults For healthy adults with no medical issues, it is generally agreed upon that 300mg-400mg of caffeine can be consumed daily without any adverse effects.¹ The research behind this number actually bases this on a person’s bodyweight. So if you weigh more than the average human, you can safely consume a little more but if you weigh less than the average human you should consume a little less. Our safe dose calculator above reflects this. This is equivalent to about:5.2 Shots of espresso Two 5 Hour Energy Shots1 Starbucks Venti brewed coffee2.5 16 fl.oz. Monster Energy Drinks5 8 fl.oz. Red Bulls11.7 12 fl.oz. Cokes A large review by European Food Safety Authority concluded that a daily safe dose of 400mg is safe for adult s and single doses of 200mg at one time are fine for those engaging in exercise directly after the dose."

About two days after I received the vaccine I started to suffer something I cannot even accurately describe--my hands would tingle, I would feel like I was dying, I felt like I had the flu and I had a horrible fever. Beside the fact that I was having a bad reaction to the vaccine, I didn't realize that at the same time I was having a bad reaction to caffeine. All of the sudden, any time I had any coffee, soda or anything, I had a horrible panic attack and felt like, for lack of better words, like I was going crazy.

"text": "\"Tweet Most a.m. coffee drinkers don't realize it, but their morning cups of coffee set their bodies up for a rollercoaster day of highs and lows, only to bottom out at the point of exhaustion. Just a few hours after consumption, when the artificial high dies down, many people may reach for more coffee or something sugary to get another lift, leading to daily fluctuations in energy and alertness, and possibly to eventual chronic adrenal exhaustion. Now, you don't have to explain your coffee addiction to me. I worked as an espresso barista for four years, so I know what it's like to drink coffee and espresso constantly. Throughout college, I drank about four espresso drinks a day, most of them doubles, and that's a conservative estimate. I only slept two or three hours most nights, but once a week or so, I would completely crash and sleep for twelve or thirteen hours straight. Since I graduated from college, I've also graduated to only drinking one cup of coffee a day and sometimes none at all. I feel much better and now I even have a somewhat normal sleeping schedule. You probably don't drink as much coffee as I drank, but just one caffeinated drink – whether it's a soft drink, caffeinated tea or coffee – will put your body on the caffeine rollercoaster. When you consume caffeine, the drug begins its effects by initiating uncontrolled neuron firing in your brain, according to Stephen Cherniske in his book, Caffeine Blues."

Caffeine From the First Sip Caffeine easily passes through body membranes so from the first sip the caffeine is entering your bloodstream through the lining of your mouth, throat, and stomach. It only takes 45 minutes for 99% of the caffeine to be absorbed through these membranes. In humans, the half-life for caffeine is anywhere from 4 to 6 hours on average, which explains why the average energy drink or coffee’s effect lasts about 4 to 6 hours. Things like age, medical conditions, and drug interaction can have an effect on the half-life. Note: Humans also can have 3 levels of sensitivity to caffeine.

Guaraná and caffeine Guaraná contains caffeine, the stimulant found in coffee, tea, yerba mate, colas and chocolate. “ Guaraná also contains a whole mix of other compounds that act together to stimulate you over and above its caffeine content,” says Professor Stephen Myers, Director of Nat Med-Research at Southern Cross University. In fact, at the University of Tasmania a study comparing the effects of coffee, guaraná and yerba mate showed that guaraná produced the greatest alertness and improvement in the performance of mental tasks. Coffee produced a peak in alertness after about 30-45 minutes then rapidly fell away, while the effects of guaraná were still continuing – and increasing – after 150 minutes. “ There might be substances in guaraná that delay the metabolism of caffeine or slows the absorption of caffeine to prolong its effect,” Professor Myers explains. Another study at Northumbria University in England showed that guaraná’s positive effects on mood, memory and cognitive function don’t all come down to caffeine levels. Researchers found that better results came from doses of guaraná that had 37.5 or 75mg of caffeine compared to doses that contained 150 or 300mg of caffeine (an espresso shot has about 80mg of caffeine, a can of V 109mg). Melbourne’s Swinburne University of Technology also looked at how people performed at a range of mental tasks after taking guaraná. In these tests, the guaraná was weaker again with a measly 9mg of caffeine, so researchers concluded that the improvements with guaraná were unlikely to come from its caffeine content."

[ 2]The field of educational psychology involves the study of memory, conceptual processes, and individual differences (via cognitive psychology) in conceptualizing new strategies for learning processes in humans."

"text": "\"Educational objectives describe the goals toward which the education process is directed–the learning that is to result from instruction. When drawn up by an education authority or professional organization, objectives are usually called standards. Taxonomies are classification systems based on an organizational scheme. In this instance, a set of carefully defined terms, organized from simple to complex and from concrete to abstract, provide a framework of categories into which one may classify educational goals. Such schemes can: Provide a common language about educational goals that can bridge subject matter and grade levels Serve as a touchstone for specifying the meaning of broad educational goals for the classroom Help to determine the congruence of goals, classroom activities and assessments Provide a panorama of the range of possible educational goals against which the limited breadth and depth of any particular educational curriculum may be contrasted The First Taxonomy of Educational Objectives: Cognitive Domain The idea of creating a taxonomy of educational objectives was conceived by Benjamin Bloom in the 1950s, the assistant director of the University of Chicago's Board of Examinations. Bloom sought to reduce the extensive labor of test development by exchanging test items among universities. He believed this could be facilitated by developing a carefully defined framework into which items measuring the same objective could be classified. Examiners and testing specialists from across the country were assembled into a working group that met periodically over a number of years. The result was a framework with six major categories and many subcategories for the most common objectives of classroom instruction–those dealing with the cognitive domain. To facilitate test development, the framework provided extensive examples of test items (largely multiple choice) for each major category."

Polysemy is thus distinct from homonymy —or homophony —which is an accidental similarity between two words (such as bear the animal, and the verb to bear ); while homonymy is often a mere linguistic coincidence, polysemy is not. Charles Fillmore and Beryl Atkins' definition stipulates three elements: (i) the various senses of a polysemous word have a central origin, (ii) the links between these senses form a network, and (iii) understanding the 'inner' one contributes to understanding of the 'outer' one. [ 3]Polysemy is a pivotal concept within disciplines such as media studies and linguistics. The analysis of polysemy, synonymy, and hyponymy and hypernymy is vital to taxonomy and ontology in the information-science senses of those terms.

"text": "Bloom's Taxonomy By Andrianes Pinantoan February 28th, 2014 1 Comment Sometimes, learning feels like an obstacle course setting students up for failure. However, it’s the job of the teacher to drive the students to clear the hurdles and move forward. Every teacher needs a guide to helping the students accomplish objectives. It’s how the teacher perceives the process that determines what students will learn and how they’ll learn it. A structured guide, Bloom’s Taxonomy, to achieving learning goals was first introduced in 1956 by Benjamin S. Bloom who specialized in taxonomy at the University of Chicago where he created a system for developing and determining levels of mastery of subject matter. Even earlier, in 1948, the American Psychological association held discussions about the quality of education. At the University of Chicago, Bloom was the director of the examiner’s office where he focused his work on assessments to gauge the learning in any given course. The problem was that assessments had so many varied perspectives among educators. Many couldn’t agree on what understanding material actually meant. Since then, educators including academics, teachers, trainers, and publishers used it to create lessons, assessments and other materials in order to plan, design and evaluate the degree with which students have learned any given subject."

It is most often used when designing educational, training, and learning processes. The Three Domains of Learning The committee identified three domains of educational activities or learning (Bloom, et al. 1956): Cognitive: mental skills ( knowledge)Affective: growth in feelings or emotional areas ( attitude or self)Psychomotor: manual or physical skills ( skills)Since the work was produced by higher education, the words tend to be a little bigger than we normally use. Domains may be thought of as categories. Instructional designers, trainers, and educators often refer to these three categories as KSA ( Knowledge [cognitive], Skills [psychomotor], and Attitudes [affective]). This taxonomy of learning behaviors may be thought of as “the goals of the learning process.” That is, after a learning episode, the learner should have acquired a new skill, knowledge, and/or attitude. While the committee produced an elaborate compilation for the cognitive and affective domains, they omitted the psychomotor domain. Their explanation for this oversight was that they have little experience in teaching manual skills within the college level."

In terms of Bloom’s revised taxonomy (2001), this means that students are doing the lower levels of cognitive work (gaining knowledge and comprehension) outside of class, and focusing on the higher forms of cognitive work (application, analysis, synthesis, and/or evaluation) in class, where they have the support of their peers and instructor. This model contrasts from the traditional model in which “first exposure” occurs via lecture in class, with students assimilating knowledge through homework; thus the term “flipped classroom. ”What is it? | Does it work? | Theoretical basis | Key Elements | Where can I learn more? |References What is it?"

A Critical Approach. Part I. Contemporary Theory, Chapter 1) Theories of the psychology of concepts are as diverse as psychology itself. But I will limit myself to a fairly general review of the most well-known theories, and without paying attention to the evolution of the views of particular writers. The dominant trend of the psychology of concepts in the Anglophone world at the moment is the American current which originated from the Cognitive Revolution of the 1950s with people like Jerome Bruner, Jacqueline Goodnow, George Austin and others. The most well- known names in recent work on concepts are Eleanor Rosch, Douglas Medin, Lawrence Barsalou, Edward Smith, Gregory Murphy, Susan Carey, Eric Margolis, Stephen Laurence and the philosopher Jerry Fodor. There are others who have reacted critically to this current, and I will come to these later. These writers seem to agree that nothing was known of the psychology of concepts prior to the Cognitive Revolution, and apart from gestures to Gottlob Frege, Ludwig Wittgenstein and Plato, nothing of value had been established in the science beyond their own work. Even though they are rediscovering ideas which are centuries old, the laboratory methods of investigation they have brought to bear on the theory of concepts are novel and have brought about a rapid turn-over in theories of the concept. The Psychology of Concepts (when I use capital-P and capital-C I am referring to the current of Cognitive Psychology) locates itself squarely within the traditions of experimental natural science and a variety of analytical philosophy which accepts a naïve variant of Cartesian dualism.

"text": "\"Home About Login Register Search Current Archives Announcements Submission Resources Home > Vol 9, No 1 (2009) > Berger On Developing Music Therapy Goals and Objectives�By Dorita S. Berger Abstract In order to address the treatment of deficits through music therapy interventions, clinicians who assess human behaviors from a physiological perspective can target treatment goals and objectives to address more than just the symptoms of diagnoses. Clearer understand of Goal and Objective can help identify and address possible causes of mal-functions. This is possible when clinicians observe patients with a keen clinical eye for associating presenting problems with unobservable physiological reasons for them. This paper discusses the differences between a goal and an objective, and suggests how a clinical eye might focus long-range goals and short-term objectives from a physiologic perspective for any diagnosis. A sample case of autism is presented for the purpose of illuminating the suggested approach and terminologies discussed. Although the case is of a child with an Autism diagnosis, the information presented is transferable to other diagnoses and age groups. Clinical observations and sample goals and objectives discussed are based on the hypothesis that behavior is rooted in physiologic function resulting from information that is, or is not, available, that is either well perceived or ill-interpreted, by the brain, which thus calls for what appears as less functional behaviors. In considering treatment with music, interventions based on observed behaviors and responses will yield goals and objectives for possible causes of identified areas of deficiency, including psycho-emotional issues. Back To Basics: Understanding Goal and Objective My experience as a music therapy educator has been that the terms goal and objective have been as widely and variously defined as the term music itself. Students training to work in psychiatric and other adult settings seem to rely in great part on feel good and social interaction goals."

You work with a mental health counselor (psychotherapist or therapist) in a structured way, attending a limited number of sessions. CBT helps you become aware of inaccurate or negative thinking so you can view challenging situations more clearly and respond to them in a more effective way. CBT can be a very helpful tool in treating mental health disorders, such as depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or an eating disorder. But not everyone who benefits from CBT has a mental health condition. It can be an effective tool to help anyone learn how to better manage stressful life situations. Why it's done Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to treat a wide range of issues. It's often the preferred type of psychotherapy because it can quickly help you identify and cope with specific challenges.

Ellis' own approach was renamed to Rational Emotive Therapy in 1959, then to the current term in 1992."

Process, Types, Components, Uses, and Effectiveness By Kendra Cherry | Reviewed by Steven Gans, MDUpdated July 12, 2017Share Pin Email Print Steve Debenport / Getty Images Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapeutic treatment that helps patients understand the thoughts and feelings that influence behaviors. CBT is commonly used to treat a wide range of disorders, including phobias, addictions, depression, and anxiety. Cognitive behavior therapy is generally short-term and focused on helping clients deal with a very specific problem. During the course of treatment, people learn how to identify and change destructive or disturbing thought patterns that have a negative influence on behavior and emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Basics The underlying concept behind CBT is that our thoughts and feelings play a fundamental role in our behavior. For example, a person who spends a lot of time thinking about plane crashes, runway accidents and other air disasters may find themselves avoiding air travel. The goal of cognitive behavior therapy is to teach patients that while they cannot control every aspect of the world around them, they can take control of how they interpret and deal with things in their environment.

Moreno, is a primarily group therapy approach in which the client acts out or dramatizes past, present, or anticipated life situations and roles in an attempt to gain deeper understanding, achieve catharsis, and develop behavioral skills. It can help client get in contact with unrecognized and unexpressed feelings, to provide a channel for a full expression of these feelings and attitudes, and to encourage new behavior. It is designed to facilitate the expression of feelings in spontaneous and dramatic way through the use of role playing. T It is processing without any script before enactment. In proceeding the psychodrama, five elements are essential and exist: The stage, the protagonist ( A person who is the subject of the psychodrama and its principle actor), the director ( A person who will use his professional skill to facilitate the psychodrama), the auxiliary ego ( Someone who assist in enacting some role ) and the audience. Each one has its own role and responsibility in the psychodrama. Also, there are many concepts and techniques which is important in psychodrama. Here I will list out few components which I want to share as below. Psychodrama's most important characteristic is its emphasis on spontaneity and creativity.

"text": "What is Developmental Therapy? Developmental therapy is a specialized field of work that focuses on the manner in which children from birth to five years of age learn and develop. It is a discipline that takes a holistic look at child development, that is, everything from physical growth to mental functioning to personality development and so forth. Due to the global nature of developmental therapy, it is a service provided to a wide-range of clients. Children with physical disabilities, cognitive delays, sensory processing difficulties, speech delays, and visual or hearing impairments often participate in developmental therapy activities. Likewise, children with psychological disorders, like Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder are often referred for developmental therapy to be evaluated and treated for their conditions. The hallmark of many developmental therapy activities is a focus on skills development in the context of play. Play is the “language” of children, so developmental therapy is based on the notion that children can learn how to improve their functioning through the process of playing. For example, a play-based developmental therapy session might be used to help a child that has poor motor skill development to begin to learn how to coordinate his or her body movements through dance. Likewise, a child that has a decreased attention span might learn how to focus his or her attention on a time-intensive task, like putting a puzzle together."

Changes or goals might involve: A way of acting: like smoking less or being more outgoing;A way of feeling: like helping a person to be less scared, less depressed, or less anxious;A way of thinking: like learning to problem-solve or get rid of self-defeating thoughts;A way of dealing with physical or medical problems: like lessening back pain or helping a person stick to a doctor’s suggestions. Behavior Therapists and Cognitive Behavior Therapists usually focus more on the current situation and its solution, rather than the past. They concentrate on a person’s views and beliefs about their life, not on personality traits. Behavior Therapists and Cognitive Behavior Therapists treat individuals, parents, children, couples, and families. Replacing ways of living that do not work well with ways of living that work, and giving people more control over their lives, are common goals of behavior and cognitive behavior therapy.

It tends to view change in terms of the systems of interaction between family members. It emphasizes family relationships as an important factor in psychological health. The different schools of family therapy have in common a belief that, regardless of the origin of the problem, and regardless of whether the clients consider it an \"\"individual\"\" or \"\"family\"\" issue, involving families in solutions often benefits clients. This involvement of families is commonly accomplished by their direct participation in the therapy session. The skills of the family therapist thus include the ability to influence conversations in a way that catalyses the strengths, wisdom, and support of the wider system. In the field's early years, many clinicians defined the family in a narrow, traditional manner usually including parents and children. As the field has evolved, the concept of the family is more commonly defined in terms of strongly supportive, long-term roles and relationships between people who may or may not be related by blood or marriage. The conceptual frameworks developed by family therapists, especially those of family systems theorists, have been applied to a wide range of human behavior, including organisational dynamics and the study of greatness.

"text": "Different Types of Therapy One thing that can make finding a therapist tricky is that therapists often have quite different kinds of approaches or styles. It can be hard for people who don’t know much about psychotherapy to find someone with an approach that suits them. Here is a brief outline of some of the main forms of therapy. Reading through it might make you think about which makes most sense to you. When you see a therapist you can ask about which approach they use and see if you will be able to get on with them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) (sometimes just called Cognitive Therapy)Therapists using the CBT approach generally think that we get into habits of behaviours or ways of thinking that aren’t helpful. They try to help people to identify these behaviours or thoughts and then change them. CBT therapists are most likely to use techniques or exercises. For example if you’re getting anxious a lot they might ask you to note down each time you get anxious during a day and record what you were thinking just beforehand. In Sexual and Relationship Therapy examples of the kinds of things a CBT therapist might do include using relaxation exercises if you’re feeling anxious about sex, or helping you to explore what kind of thoughts you are having and change them for more useful thoughts."

For this reason, it is a topic that is examined in depth in human service education programs and research. Theory is used to explain client problems and to dictate what is done in the counseling process (Hackney, 1992). Theory can be used to define “the nature of the relationship between the counselor and client, to conceptualize the nature of the presenting problem (s), and to define the resulting counseling goals or desired outcomes” (p.2). In the past, much focus has been paid on delineating and accentuating the differences between the many theories of therapy (Sprenkle, 2003, p. 93). Today, there is a move towards convergence of theories within the helping practices (Hackney, 1992, p. 3; Sprenkle, 2003). Researchers and practitioners are searching for an integrated approach which emphasizes the key components within the helping process and relationship that have been linked to effective therapy (Hackney, 1992, p.2). Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and Person-Centered Therapy (PCT) have been shown to bring about positive changes in therapy. CBT and PCT, like all single-theory approaches, have limitations. Literature suggests that when the change-producing techniques of CBT and PCT are combined and applied, counseling is more effective (Josefowitz & Myran, 2005; Tursi & Cochran, 2006)."

"text": "\"Color Symbolism in Literature: What Do Colors Mean in Literature and Poetry? Colors have been used in stories since as early as the first story was told. Writers and poets use colors to create concrete images of their characters, scenes and events. Language itself uses a system of symbols, either verbal or written. Therefore, color symbolism in literature imparts a deeper meaning to the words which, in turn, help transform the written content into a more powerful instrument. Naturally, the reader must also have prior experience with the color in order to interpret the symbolism (that the creator has in mind) correctly. This is the main reason why poems and books mean different things to different readers. Although this is the case, writers and poets have the poetic license to use different colors in a manner that create different meanings in their work. Let us study different colors and what they mean in different forms of literature across the world. Color symbolism in French literature As early as the 12 th century, French writers and poets used only 7 colors to depict romance, characters and emotions."

It endows parts of a story with at least two layers of meaning: the obvious literal meaning and the more-complex symbolic meaning. For example, a character's obsession with a watch or clock may be taken as an eccentricity, but it may also symbolize an obsession with time or an inability to let go of the past.

Symbols, though basic to human consciousness, are rarely simple, and the term \"\"symbol\"\" may apply to many different phenomena.

In language, every word is a symbol. For instance, \"\"cat\"\" isn't really a cat but a symbol by which we refer to a cat. Symbols are always at work every day in human minds and environments. Social analysts divide modern humans into two categories: Those who manipulate symbols (e.g., computer programmers, writers of all kinds, visual and other artists, film and video directors and editors, advertisers, marketers, political consultants), and Those who are manipulated by symbols (passive consumers of TV, music, advertising, popular art, literature, and culture generally, celebrity worship, etc.).

The term “ Renaissance ” came from the French language meaning, “rebirth.” In this period, another word was created for man. There was a classical learning in the study of the ancient Greek and Roman texts. The period stirred enthusiasm for the philosophy and artistic values of the ancients.

"text": "Who Pays Writers? At its height, the American welfare state provided direct financial support to scores of writers. They used it to challenge the political status quo, revolutionizing literary form in the process. Maggie Doherty Winter 2016Ellen S. Woodward, Assistant WPA Administrator in charge of the Government Creative Work Program, testifies to the House about the value of federal subsidies for creative work, 1938 (Library of Congress)In 1967, the novelist John Barth, then teaching at SUNY Buffalo, made an infamous argument for literary experimentation. First delivered as a lecture at the University of Virginia, he warned students and faculty about “the used-upness of certain forms” and “the felt exhaustion of certain possibilities”—by which he meant “the novel, if not narrative literature, generally, if not the printed word altogether.” In the speech, later published in the Atlantic as “The Literature of Exhaustion,” he urged his contemporaries to write with “ironic intent,” to demonstrate they knew what writers had already accomplished, and to create original works of literature by writing about “the difficulty, perhaps the unneccessity, of writing original works of literature.” The traditional elements of fiction (plot, character) could be resuscitated, but they would need to be deployed differently. In the decade that followed the lecture, this call for self-reflexive fiction was answered by writers like William Gass, Thomas Pynchon, and, predictably, Barth himself, who asked readers of his 1968 novella Lost in the Funhouse to literally deconstruct the book by cutting a Möbius strip from its opening pages. Along with Toni Morrison and Ishmael Reed, these writers ushered in the era of literary experimentation that we now call “postmodernism. ”Nearly half a century later, we find ourselves at a different sort of crisis point."

To identify and investigate relationships based on shared genes or shared functional features, we have conducted a bioinformatic-based global analysis of all orphan diseases with known disease-causing mutant genes. Starting with a bipartite network of known OD and OD-causing mutant genes and using the human protein interactome, we first construct and topologically analyze three networks: the orphan disease network, the orphan disease-causing mutant gene network, and the orphan disease-causing mutant gene interactome. Our results demonstrate that in contrast to the common disease-causing mutant genes that are predominantly nonessential, a majority of orphan disease-causing mutant genes are essential. In confirmation of this finding, we found that OD-causing mutant genes are topologically important in the protein interactome and are ubiquitously expressed. Additionally, functional enrichment analysis of those genes in which mutations cause ODs shows that a majority result in premature death or are lethal in the orthologous mouse gene knockout models. To address the limitations of traditional gene-based disease networks, we also construct and analyze OD networks on the basis of shared enriched features (biological processes, cellular components, pathways, phenotypes, and literature citations). Analyzing these functionally-linked OD networks, we identified several additional OD-OD relations that are both phenotypically similar and phenotypically diverse. Surprisingly, we observed that the wiring of the gene-based and other feature-based OD networks are largely different; this suggests that the relationship between ODs cannot be fully captured by the gene-based network alone. Previous article Next article Introduction The US Rare Disease Act of 2002 defined a rare or orphan disease (OD) as a disease that affects fewer than 200,000 inhabitants, equivalent to approximately 6.5 patients per 10,000 inhabitants."

Trained in music and other subjects by his mother, a schoolteacher, Johnson graduated from Atlanta University with A. B. (1894) and M. A. (1904) degrees and later studied at Columbia University. For several years he was principal of the black high school in Jacksonville, Fla. He read law at the same time, was admitted to the Florida bar in 1897, and began practicing there. During this period, he and his brother, John Rosamond Johnson (1873–1954), a composer, began writing songs, including “ Lift Every Voice and Sing,” based on James’s 1900 poem of the same name, which became something of a national anthem to many African Americans. In 1901 the two went to New York, where they wrote some 200 songs for the Broadway musical stage. In 1906 President Theodore Roosevelt appointed him U. S. consul to Puerto Cabello, Venezuela, and in 1909 he became consul in Corinto, Nicaragua, where he served until 1914. He later taught at Fisk University. Meanwhile, he began writing a novel, The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man (published anonymously, 1912), which attracted little attention until it was reissued under his own name in 1927. From 1916 Johnson was a leader in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Fifty Years and Other Poems (1917) was followed by his pioneering anthology Book of American Negro Poetry (1922) and books of American Negro Spirituals (1925, 1926), collaborations with his brother."

"text": "\"Color Symbolism in Literature: What Do Colors Mean in Literature and Poetry? Colors have been used in stories since as early as the first story was told. Writers and poets use colors to create concrete images of their characters, scenes and events. Language itself uses a system of symbols, either verbal or written. Therefore, color symbolism in literature imparts a deeper meaning to the words which, in turn, help transform the written content into a more powerful instrument. Naturally, the reader must also have prior experience with the color in order to interpret the symbolism (that the creator has in mind) correctly. This is the main reason why poems and books mean different things to different readers. Although this is the case, writers and poets have the poetic license to use different colors in a manner that create different meanings in their work. Let us study different colors and what they mean in different forms of literature across the world. Color symbolism in French literature As early as the 12 th century, French writers and poets used only 7 colors to depict romance, characters and emotions."

African-American literature is the body of literature produced in the United States by writers of African descent. It begins with the works of such late 18th-century writers as Phillis Wheatley. Before the high point of slave narratives, African-American literature was dominated by autobiographical spiritual narratives. The genre known as slave narratives in the 19th century were accounts by people who had generally escaped from slavery, about their journeys to freedom and ways they claimed their lives. The Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s was a great period of flowering in literature and the arts, influenced both by writers who came North in the Great Migration and those who were immigrants from Jamaica and other Caribbean islands. African-American writers have been recognized by the highest awards, including the Nobel Prize to Toni Morrison. Among the themes and issues explored in this literature are the role of African Americans within the larger American society, African-American culture, racism, slavery, and social equality. African-American writing has tended to incorporate oral forms, such as spirituals, sermons, gospel music, blues, or rap. [ 1]As African Americans' place in American society has changed over the centuries, so has the focus of African-American literature."

"text": "Objectivity and Subjectivity Revisited: Color as a Psychobiological Property Gary Hatfield University of Pennsylvania Philosophical theories of color divide into three. There are the so-called objectivists, who argue that color is a mind-independent property of objects. There are the subjectivists, who argue that color is not a property of objects, but an internal state of the perceiver or the subjective content of a perceiver's experience. And there are the relationalists, who argue that color, considered as a property of objects, is a relational property; it is a property that surfaces and light sources have of causing experiences with various phenomenal characters in perceivers. These philosophical theories differ on the question of what color is. Objectivists think of color as a physical property, which is in principle independent of color experience and visual perception. Subjectivists make color experience primary in their conceptions of color; indeed, they think that the notion of color has primary reference only to visual experience. Relationalists also define color in relation to color experience; however, they are able to define color as a property of the surfaces of objects by considering the relation between objects and color experience. Proponents of all three positions marshal the available scientific evidence in their support. To support objectivism, Hilbert (1987, 1992) appeals to Maloney and Wandell's (1986) analysis of color constancy as an inference to the spectral reflectance distribution of a given surface."

"text": "Avoiding Parking Tickets The following tips will help you avoid parking tickets in San Francisco. Do not park for more than 72 hours The maximum on-street parking time limit in San Francisco is 72 hours (3 days). This rule does apply to vehicles with residential parking permits. Stationary vehicles parked beyond 72 hours can be cited and towed. In addition, street construction and other special events can sometimes require removing parking from a street with as little as 24 hours notice, so it’s a good idea to check your vehicle every day to ensure that no temporary restrictions have been posted on the street. Always check for parking signs Before parking a vehicle look 100 feet in both directions for any parking signs. Also check the curb to see if there are any color curb markings. A majority of San Francisco streets have street cleaning signs that restrict parking from once a month to every day including holidays. Many streets have daytime parking time limits, including Residential Parking Permit areas. On major streets and in the downtown area, also check that commute morning or peak hour tow-away lane restrictions are not in effect."

He is has a blog called Complementary Training and is an expert Gym Aware user!There has been recent interest in using load-velocity relationship in predicting 1RMs, especially now when the availability of LPTs (Linear Position Transducers) and accelerometers is increasing, along with their ease of use. What has been widely used up to this point is load-endurance relationship, estimated by repetitions to failure. On the following picture is the visual representation of that relationship using data from Dan Baker. You can also see read more on that relationship here: Before I commenced this little self-experiment and a play with Gym Aware I wanted to do a short literature review, so I can avoid pitfalls identified by the researchers. I have found couple full papers by using Google, Google Scholar and Pub Med and I am reviewing them here. Jidovtseff et al. ( 1) suggests measuring average velocity (AV) and not peak velocity (PV) for two reasons. First AV better represents the ability of the subject to move the load through the entire concentric phase."

Anywhere it rains, it can flood! Homeowner’s insurance policies do not cover losses due to flooding. Flood insurance is mandatory for federally backed mortgages. You must have flood insurance to get federally secured financing to buy, construct, or improve a building in a high-risk area known as a Special Flood Hazard Area, where more than 75 percent of all flood claims are paid. Lending institutions that are federally regulated or insured must determine if the building is in an Special Flood Hazard Area. If it is, the lender must require flood insurance on: FHA loans, VA loans, second mortgages, home equity loans, home improvement loans, construction loans, commercial loans, farm credit loans. Be aware that there is a 30-day waiting period before coverage goes into effect, so don’t delay.

Related to rezoning: Zoning ordinance Zoning The separation or division of a municipality into districts, the regulation of buildings and structures in such districts in accordance with their construction and the nature and extent of their use, andthe dedication of such districts to particular uses designed to serve the General Welfare. Zoning, the regulation of the use of real property by local government, restricts a particular territory to residential, commercial, industrial, or other uses. The local governing body considers thecharacter of the property as well as its fitness for particular uses. It must enact the regulations in accordance with a well-considered and comprehensive plan intended to avoid Arbitrary exercise of government power. A comprehensive plan is a general design to control the use of properties in theentire municipality, or at least in a large portion of it. Individual pieces of property should not be singled out for special treatment. For example, one or two lots may not be placed in a separatezone and subjected to restrictions that do not apply to similar adjoining lands. Zoning ordinances divide a town, city, village, or county into separate residential, commercial, andindustrial districts, thereby preserving the desirable characteristics of each type of setting. Theselaws generally limit dimensions in each zone."

"text": "The trolley runs along Commercial Street in Logan Heights. / Photo by Dustin Michelson San Diego officials will soon decide what the future looks like for a bleak stretch of Commercial Street in Logan Heights. Before they do, they’ll have to figure out what property owners in the area want. City planners have recommended leaving the area near downtown as a home for industrial businesses, though they’ve made it possible for the City Council to instead elect to turn it into the sort of walkable, transit-oriented neighborhood that’s meant to be the template for future growth citywide. But the possibility that the area will be left out of the city’s smart-growth push has some property owners in the area wondering what happened — and has spawned at least one conspiracy theory. The city is set to release next week the results of an environmental study of the new development regulations in Sherman Heights, Logan Heights, Grant Hill, Shelltown and Memorial. The primary subject of dispute is the stretch of Commercial Street between 28th and 32nd streets in Logan Heights. It’s now home to long-term tenants who do heavy industrial activities like metal scrapping, sand blasting, car wrecking and recycling right next to nearby residences. It’s also just two trolley stops east of downtown, but it hardly feels like it. If not for the trolley coming through every 10 minutes, you’d expect to see a tumbleweed bounce through the stretch of businesses."

For instance, parks and forest preserves are protected by government ownership. The federal government has virtually no laws regulating land-use. Most land-use controls are within the province of the states, but their enactment and enforcement are delegated to the local governments. Hence, land-use controls can vary widely across localities. Land-use controls consists of government ordinances, codes, and permit requirements that restrict the private use of land and natural resources, to conform to public policies. There are several types of land-use regulations, including subdivision regulations, zoning, building codes, housing codes, curve-cut permit systems, historic preservation laws, and tree cutting laws. The primary public land-use control is zoning, where properties of the same type, such as residential or commercial, are designated for particular geographic zones. The primary private land-use control is deed restrictions, limiting what can be done on the property by the owner."

"text": "December 29, 2016 By propertymetrics 0 Comments Do You Know These Essential Zoning Terms? The concept of zoning is fairly simple. A governing body enacts laws to create districts within its jurisdiction and regulations to govern the uses and structures inside those districts. The creation of these districts and regulations are designed to serve the jurisdiction’s general welfare by promoting growth and development in accordance with the body’s planning policies. To accomplish this, the body regulates the types of uses permitted, the design or layout of developments, and the design of structures within each district. While the concept is straightforward, the terms used in the zoning world are numerous. Because being able to verify that an existing or proposed use of property is permitted (or if it isn’t, how it may become permitted) is at the heart of any commercial real estate transaction, a real estate professional must be well versed in the language of zoning. Accordingly, this article sets out (alphabetically) many of the most common zoning terms, what they mean, and how they’re used. AAccessory Use. Accessory uses are land uses within a property that are, in addition to the parcel’s principal use, customary, appropriate, subordinate, incidental to, and serve the principal use."

SYMPTOMSParalysis or numbness on one side of the face or the body Impaired speech An inability to understand others’ speech Dizziness A sudden severe headache Loss of balance Blurred vision or blindness Loss of consciousness Confusion ROOT CAUSEAn overwhelming percentage of strokes are caused by arteriosclerosis, a condition in which fatty deposits build up inside the arterial walls and obstruct blood flow. When blood carrying oxygen and other nutrients to the brain is blocked or interrupted; the brain tissues begin to die within minutes, never to regenerate. This tissue death is what happens during a stroke. The blood supply may also be shut off if a clot lodges itself in an artery that’s already damaged and narrow. ln a few cases, a cerebral blood vessel will actually rupture. High blood pressure is also a major predisposition to strokes, which can damage the arteries and may cause a rupture, other causes are: Poor diet Genetic cardiovascular risk factors High Blood Pressure Smoking Diabetes Obesity Irregular heartbeat Damaged heart valve Blood that clots too easily Oral contraceptives (especially in women over 35 years of age) Synthetic hormone replacement STROKE PREVENTION NATURAL REMEDIESStroke risk can often be mitigated with proper diet, exercise, supplementation, and stress management."

"text": "\"Home >> Where fungi grow >> Mutualists >> Mutualisms with algae MUTUALISMS BETWEEN FUNGI AND ALGAEThe term \"\"algae\"\" (singular: alga) is used to denote a vast array of plant-like organisms. Modern genetic studies have shown conclusively that the organisms called algae belong to several different kingdoms and are mostly not plants at all. We should probably abandon the term altogether, but it has a long history and is in fact not altogether useless. The organisms we call algae are a diverse group of often very distantly related species. All of them lack roots and real leaves, although some of the larger ones have root-like structures called holdfasts and flat leaf-like blades. All contain chlorophyll and all are photosynthetic, but in many groups the green colour is masked by a variety of \"\"accessory pigments\"\". The smallest algae are one-celled and only a few micrometers in diameter. Nanochlorum eukaryoticum may be as small as 1 μm in diameter. At the other end of the scale, Nereocystis lutkeana, a giant \"\"kelp\"\" common on our west coast may be as long as 30 meters. In the photograph at right you can see the long leafy blades at one end of the thallus, which then snakes off to the right out of the picture."

Sow them directly in the garden. Zinnias thrive in heat and when the weather is cool, they don't grow or flower very well. If you are sowing indoors make sure they have good air circulation to prevent mildew. Another way to prevent mildew is to soak the soil when watering instead of using a spray. Also be careful not to over-water these plants. This pretty plant grows from a dwarf 10 inches to cutting types of 3 feet. Available in a wide range of colors from white, red and yellow to orange, pink and plum. Blooms can be single or double, and they don't need to be pinched back or pruned.

And after being inundated with a billion of these images, day after day, you’ve probably been tempted to join the crowd and pick up a few bottles of vitamins, too. We know we have. But before we raided the shelves of GNC, we talked to an expert—you know, the kind with an actual medical degree who saves lives and stuff—about whether or not popping a few pills can really give you the gorgeous hair and nails of your dreams like social media promises. And yes, she had a lot to say. Read on to find out the five things you should absolutely know before stocking up on those mystical, magical vitamins. First, learn your supplements. If you’re going to gulp down some pills that your sister’s hairstylist’s cousin told you to try, you should make sure you know what you’re taking. “ Vitamin A, omega 3s, and all of the B-complex vitamins play a role in how our skin and nails look,” says Holly Phillips, MD. “ B-complex vitamins, like biotin and folic acid—two of the most popular vitamins people take when they’re trying to grow their hair—help your body process energy and transport carbon dioxide to the blood cells, which aids in your metabolism and cell turnover,” she says, stressing and re-stressing that these vitamins don’t necessarily cause stronger, thicker, or prettier hair and nails, but they might help."

MORE: Your Ultimate Cheat Sheet to Common Cooking Terms Some people swear by leaving the stuff out on the counter, while others balk at the idea of ever keeping a dairy product outside the refrigerator for longer than ten minutes. Plus, theofficial USDA guideline statesthat butter should be refrigerated and only softened “ten to fifteen minutes” before use. However, according John Bruhn, a dairy-foods specialist at the University of California at Davis, that’s not the complete story. “ Most butter contains added salt, which impedes the growth of spoilage bacteria,” he told us. So, while butter will go bad, it happens much more slowly than with unfermented dairy products, such as milk. Today’s salted butter will rarely spoil, even if you leave it unrefrigerated all the time."

"text": "AVERAGE VARIABLE COST: Total variable cost per unit of output, found by dividing total variable cost by the quantity of output. When compared with price (per unit revenue), average variable cost (AVC) indicates whether or not a profit-maximizing firm should shut down production in the short run. Average variable cost is one of three average cost concepts important to short-run production analysis. The other two are average total cost and average fixed cost. A related concept is marginal cost. Average variable cost is the total variable cost per unit of output incurred when a firm engages in short-run production. It can be found in two ways. Because average variable cost is total variable cost per unit of output, it can be found by dividing total variable cost by the quantity of output. Alternatively, because total variable cost is the difference between of total cost and total fixed cost, average variable cost can be derived by subtracting average fixed cost from average total cost. In general, average variable cost decreases with additional production at relatively small quantities of output, then eventually increases with relatively large quantities of output."

This production level can be identified using total revenue and cost, marginal revenue and cost, or profit. Because a monopolistically competitive firm faces a negatively-sloped demand curve, it does not efficiently allocate resources by equating price and marginal cost. Monopolistic competition is a market structure with a large number of relatively small firms that sell similar but not identical products. Each firm is small relative to the overall size of the market such that it has some market control, but not much. In other words, it can sell a wide range of output at a narrow range of prices. This translates into a relatively elasticdemand curve. If a monopolistically competitive firm wants to sell a larger quantity, then it must lower the price, but not by much. Comparable to any profit-maximizing firm, a monopolistically competitive firm produces the quantity of output in the short run that equates marginal revenue with marginal cost. At this production level, the firm cannot increase profit by changing the level of production."

(August 23, 2017) – Owning and operating a new vehicle in 2017 will cost a driver an average of $8,469 annually, or $706 each month, according to a new study from AAA. The annual evaluation of driving costs reveals that small sedans are the least expensive vehicles to drive at $6,354 annually, however small SUVs ($7,606), hybrids ($7,687) and electric vehicles ($8,439) all offer lower-than-average driving costs to U. S. drivers. Conversely, of the nine categories included in the evaluation, pickup trucks are the most expensive vehicles to drive at $10,054 annually. Additional Resources2017 Your Driving Costs“Determining the cost of a new vehicle car is more than calculating a monthly payment,” cautioned John Nielsen, AAA’s managing director of Automotive Engineering and Repair. “ While sales price is certainly a factor, depreciation, maintenance, repair and fuel costs should be equally important considerations for anyone in the market for a new vehicle. ”In addition to analyzing the ownership costs for sedans, SUVs and minivans, AAA’s Your Driving Costs study added four new vehicle segments in 2017 – small SUVs, pickup trucks, hybrids and electric vehicles.

AAA’s annual driving cost is based on a sales-weighted average of the individual costs for all of the vehicle types. Key findings include: Depreciation Depreciation — the declining value of a vehicle over time — is the biggest, and most often overlooked, expense associated with purchasing a new car.

We employ the Fama–French IRR approach to measure long-term profitability and branch number, overhead expenses and average salaries as service proxies. The regression analysis using panel data reveals a strongly positive link between branch number and long-term profitability. This may explain why banks seek mergers with poorly operating financial institutions. The disadvantages of increased overhead expenses for enhancing services may be temporary. Furthermore, average salaries are detrimental to banks' profits, suggesting that personnel costs may be a serious burden; this may explain why a growing number of banks in Taiwan encourage early retirement of their senior employees who are then replaced by low-cost workers.

Robert Mc Cullough Fortnightly Magazine - March 15 1998MANY PLAYERS IN THE ELECTRIC INDUSTRY HAVE COME to believe that energy-only prices will soon replace the hundred-year tradition of pricing both energy and capacity. This idea, sometimes called \"\"monomic\"\" trading, offers a seductive simplicity. Even so, research indicates that it is unlikely to work well. First, consider some terminology. Traditional electric markets contain prices for both energy and capacity. Energy prices pertain to the actual kilowatt-hours. Capacity prices pertain to the right to take energy. Purchases from a thermal unit usually include prices that will cover fixed costs (capacity) and payments to cover fuel (energy). Starting from these definitions, the energy-only pricing school then teaches that the volatility of spot prices is an adequate replacement for capacity."

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEYThe Economics of Green Building Piet Eichholtz Maastricht University Netherlands [email protected] Nils Kok Maastricht University Netherlands [email protected] John M. Quigley University of California Berkeley, CA [email protected] Abstract Research on climate change suggests that small improvements in the “sustainability” of buildings can have large effects on greenhouse gas emissions and on energy efficiency in the economy. This paper analyzes the economics of “green” building. First, we analyze a panel of office buildings certified by independent rating agencies, finding that large recent increases in the supply of green buildings and the unprecedented volatility in property markets have not significantly affected the relative returns to green buildings. Second, we analyze a large cross section of office buildings, demonstrating that economic premiums in rent and asset values of buildings certified for energy efficiency are substantial. Third, we relate the economic premiums for green buildings to their relative efficiency in energy use, documenting that the attributes rated for both thermal efficiency and sustainability contribute to premiums in rents and asset values. Even among green buildings, increased energy efficiency is fully capitalized into rents and asset values.

Generating MC from TVCIn the short run where some fixed inputs are combined with variable inputs, the production function is an S-shaped upward sloping curve (TP). This total product curve starts with a segment with increasing slope followed by a segment with decreasing slope reflecting the law of diminishing returns. From this TP curve, we can derive the total variable cost curve. In the TP curve, output is a function of variable input. By reversing the horizontal and vertical axis, we get TVI (total variable input). The new (flipped) curve shows variable input as a function of output. If we multiply TVI by a constant unit cost of the variable input, we get TVC (total variable cost). Here we assume the constant unit cost is $1, so the vertical axis retains the same scale and is simply relabeled as cost. The rate at which TVC increases is gauged by the slope of the tangent to TVC at a given output level."

Patunru© 2008 International Association for Great Lakes Research Received: March 2, 2007; Accepted: August 8, 2008;Published: 2008 [+] Author & Article Info Abstract This study estimates the economic benefits of remediation in the Sheboygan River, WI Area of Concern (AOC) using two distinct empirical methods. The methodology parallels that described by Braden et al. ( 2008). The results are mixed. Using hedonic analysis of property sales, for owner-occupied homes within a 5-mile radius of the Sheboygan River AOC, the overall estimated loss of value is $158 million (8% of market value). Of this total, only $49 million in losses for homes closest to the upper river segment has strong statistical support. The impacts are greatest proportionally for properties closest to the AOC. A survey-based method yields a mean estimate of $218 million (10% of property value) in willingness to pay for full cleanup of the AOC. If remediation were to induce recovery of property values, then the local communities could benefit through increased property tax revenues."

This guide introduces you to several methods for analyzing your company's operations and calculating the profitability of your businessm WHAT TO EXPECTMany entrepreneurs start their business at least in part because of pride of ownership and the satisfaction that comes from being their own boss. In addition, of course, you almost certainly also started your business to generate profits. This training guide will introduce you to several methods that will help you analyze your company's operations and compute the profitability of your business. Among the tools to which you will be introduced are profitability ratios, break-even analysis, return on assets and return on investment. Some of these concepts, and some of the vocabulary we will use to describe them, may be new to you. But we've tried to explain the terminology and concepts as they are introduced. Where appropriate, we've pointed you to additional sources of information. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE GETTING STARTED [ top]There are several ways to measure your company's profits other than just looking at your bank account (which, to tell the truth, doesn't tell you much about profitability.) In the following pages we will introduce you to three methods of analyzing how well your company is doing: Margin (or profitability) ratios Break-even analysis (based on revenues and on units sold)Return on assets and on investment Watch Out For… Before you get started, you or your bookkeeper should have prepared an income (or profit and loss) statement for your business."

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 discussion also addressed how managers can identify the range of input in which the business will logically want to produce (that is, Stage II wherein APP is declining but MPP is greater than zero). This page discusses how the manager can further analyze the business to identify the specific level of variable input that will achieve the goal of profit maximization in the short run. The discussion requires that the focus shift from considering the quantity of physical units of variable input and output to considering the cost and revenue associated with the variable input and output. Expressing the data in terms of dollars The next step in the mental process is to convert the units of output into dollar amounts by multiplying the amount of output times the market price of the output. Axes on the graph are now dollar amount and quantity of variable input.1. Value of total product = total physical product x price of the output VTP = TPP * PThe VTP curve illustrates the value of output at each level of variable input. Graph 62. Value of average product = average physical product x price of the output VAP = APP * P = VTP/XThe VAP curve illustrates the value of output per unit of variable input at each level of variable input3. Marginal value produc t can be described several ways: 1) marginal physical product x price of output; 2) value of additional output resulting from the use of an additional unit of variable input; and 3) amount of increase in the firm's total revenue as a result of using one more unit of variable input."

To define the dependent variable we combine a measure of costs to the economy, which consists of the output and employment loss and the fiscal deficit, with a database of crisis occurrence designed specifically for this task. We take into account model uncertainty in two steps. First, for each potential leading indicator we select the relevant prediction horizon by using panel vector autoregression. Second, we identify the most useful leading indicators with Bayesian model averaging. Our results suggest that domestic housing prices, share prices, and credit growth, and some global variables, such as private credit, constitute important sources of risk. Highlights► We propose an early warning model of crisis incidence for 40 developed countries. ► Crises are captured by a continuous indicator of the real costs for the economy. ► Prediction horizon is determined for each indicator by panel vector autoregression. ► The set of useful leading indicators is selected using Bayesian model averaging."

Pannell School of Agricultural and Resource Economics, University of Western Australia, Crawley 6009, Australia Abstract The parameter values and assumptions of any model are subject to change and error. Sensitivity analysis (SA), broadly defined, is the investigation of these potential changes and errors and their impacts on conclusions to be drawn from the model. There is a very large literature on procedures and techniques for SA. This paper is a selective review and overview of theoretical and methodological issues in SA. There are many possible uses of SA, described here within the categories of decision support, communication, increased understanding or quantification of the system, and model development. The paper focuses somewhat on decision support. It is argued that even the simplest approaches to SA can be theoretically respectable in decision support if they are done well. Many different approaches to SA are described, varying in the experimental design used and in the way results are processed. Possible overall strategies for conducting SA are suggested. It is proposed that when using SA for decision support, it can be very helpful to attempt to identify which of the following forms of recommendation is the best way to sum up the implications of the model: (a) do X, (b) do either X or Y depending on the circumstances, (c) do either X or Y, whichever you like, or (d) if in doubt, do X. A system for reporting and discussing SA results is recommended.1."

Abstract This study examines the relation between information asymmetry and the cost of equity capital of firms listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. We calculate the ex ante cost of equity capital for constituent companies of the S&P/ASX 200 Index. The bid–ask spread of the companies is decomposed to find the adverse selection component, which is used to measure the information asymmetry of the company. We control for factors generally known to influence the required return on equity, such as sector, beta, firm size, book-to-market, analyst coverage and analyst earnings forecast dispersion. This study documents a significant and positive relation between information asymmetry and ex ante investor's required rate of return. We also find that earnings forecast dispersion increases ex ante cost of equity capital, while analyst coverage tends to decrease the return required by investors. This is consistent with the expectation that cost of capital increases with higher levels of information uncertainty and asymmetry.

Though pricing strategies can be complex, the basic rules of pricing are straightforward: All prices must cover costs and profits. The most effective way to lower prices is to lower costs. Review prices frequently to assure that they reflect the dynamics of cost, market demand, response to the competition, and profit objectives. Prices must be established to assure sales. Before setting a price for your product, you have to know the costs of running your business. If the price for your product or service doesn't cover costs, your cash flow will be cumulatively negative, you'll exhaust your financial resources, and your business will ultimately fail. To determine how much it costs to run your business, include property and/or equipment leases, loan repayments, inventory, utilities, financing costs, and salaries/wages/commissions. Don't forget to add the costs of markdowns, shortages, damaged merchandise, employee discounts, cost of goods sold, and desired profits to your list of operating expenses. Most important is to add profit in your calculation of costs."

"text": "\"Live Science Planet Earth How Do Compost Piles Work? By Molika Ashford | July 22, 2010 10:25am ETMOREIf a compost pile starts to get stinky, it may be a sign that something's wrong. Credit: Lianem | Dreamstime It may seem almost like a magic trick: leftover veggies from last night's dinner and yard debris go into a pile, and nutrient-rich fertilizer comes out. But that's what happens in an outdoor compost pile. Microbes, worms, snails, insects and fungi decompose organic material aerobically, which means they use oxygen as they breakdown the materials in the pile. How it works Bacteria are the powerhouse of a compost pile. They break down plant matter and create carbon dioxide and heat. Run-of-the-mill microbes usually start off the process, but as their consumption of the compost materials raises the temperature of the pile, heat-loving microorganisms take over. Compost can get up to 100 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit (40-60 degrees Celsius) as it brews. Larger critters such as worms, slugs and insects also digest the decomposing matter, pooping out finished compost as they munch their way through."

We're also going to help you decide which materials to mix together, in the proper ratios, to create that rich black soil. All Great Composters Understand This Ratio Before we get to the lists of specific materials, we want to teach you about something called the composting carbon nitrogen ratio (C: N); or as some people think of it, the brown to green ratio. This concept is especially important to understand if you are going to be using materials that are completely dry (e.g. straw, newspaper, dried manure). The C: N describes the proportions of various materials (e.g. food scraps and newspaper) that you're going to be mixing together in your compost pile to create your finished product. Ideal C: N = 20:1 - 40:1 **These ratios are based on weight of the materials. If you're new to composting, please don't get too caught up in these numbers. Trying to do all the math calculations can be quite frustrating. Instead, focus your attention on making sure your pile has a greater amount of carbon containing material than it does nitrogen containing material."

Healthy grass that receives plenty of nutrients is also less likely than under-nourished grass to have problems with diseases or pests. If you do not want to spend too much money on fertilizer, you can make excellent homemade fertilizers for a lawn. Homemade fertilizers can also be made from natural or organic ingredients if desired. One positive quality of homemade organic fertilizers is that they steadily release nutrients to the lawn over time. They provide a long duration of effectiveness and create less polluted runoff than traditional fertilizers. Lawn Clippings One of the easiest ways to fertilize your lawn without purchasing fertilizer is to simply leave grass clippings in place after mowing. Grass clippings can provide up to a quarter of a lawn's total fertilizer needs. To use this method of fertilization, the lawn needs frequent mowings so that the clippings do not get longer than an inch. Shorter clippings settle more easily into the soil so you'll avoid having piled-up clippings on top of the lawn."

You can create a free-standing compost heap, which is literally a mound or pile (preferably out of sight). If you’d prefer a ready-made one, you can buy a compost bin — there are many styles to choose from. Another option is to build your own bin out of lumber (recycled wooden pallets work great) and wire-mesh fencing. The Ingredient Layers A stationary composter provides neat, easy-to-manage disposal of kitchen and garden wastes. Position near a water source or have a watering can handy to keep your compost pile moist. Any material that was once a plant, from asparagus trimmings to autumn leaves, can be composted. Most households generate a steady stream of compost materials from the kitchen, garden, and landscape. Begin layering organic materials such as leaves, straw, old corn stalks, weed-free and pesticide-free grass clippings, egg shells, coffee grounds, tea, fruit peels, and other organic matter from the kitchen; just avoid meats, greasy ingredients, and pet droppings. If most of the compost materials at your house come from your kitchen, consider using an enclosed, or stationary, composter."

"text": "\"Worm Composting Basicsby Jen Fong and Paula Hewitt What is worm composting? Materials to use (and avoid) in a classroom worm bin Setting up a worm bin Containers Harvesting Using worm compost Biology of worms Successful vermicompost projects Worm bins What is worm composting? Worm composting is using worms to recycle food scraps and other organic material into a valuable soil amendment called vermicompost, or worm compost. Worms eat food scraps, which become compost as they pass through the worm's body. Compost exits the worm through its' tail end. This compost can then be used to grow plants. To understand why vermicompost is good for plants, remember that the worms are eating nutrient-rich fruit and vegetable scraps, and turning them into nutrient-rich compost. Materials to use (and avoid) in a classroom worm bin For millions of years, worms have been hard at work breaking down organic materials and returning nutrients to the soil. By bringing a worm bin into the classroom, you are simulating the worm's role in nature. Though worms could eat any organic material, certain foods are better for the classroom worm bin."

The Factsheet does not cover all composting requirements contained in the regulation or deadstock composting under emergency situations such as after a fire or other catastrophe. For this information, refer to the regulation. What Exactly is Composting? Composting is the natural breakdown of organic matter. The decomposition is carried out by micro-organisms, mostly bacteria, but also yeasts and fungi. When temperatures are low, a number of macro-organisms, such as springtails, ants, nematodes, isopods and red wigglers also contribute to the process, as well as soldier fly, fruit flies and fungus gnats. There is a wide range of organisms in the decomposer community. When composting deadstock, the goal is to destroy the pathogens in the material by composting at higher temperatures (55°C and higher)."

Failure to control and manage odors is the single biggest cause of adverse publicity, regulatory pressures and facility closures in the organics recycling industry. The article series examines the intricacies of odor management — how and where odors are generated, how they are measured and perceived, management through good process control as well as with technology, and addressing the neighbor and community relations of organics recycling odors. This first article explores how odors are created, odor sources and approaches to regulating their emissions and control. Aerobic composting and anaerobic digestion facilities have one thing in common: they manage the process of decomposition. Decomposition begins immediately after the death of a living plant or animal, whether that’s an orange plucked from a fruit tree, an animal rendered to feed people, or a shrub branch pruned by an avid gardener."

One option is to collect the waste daily, load it in a spreader, and spread it on cropland, hayland, or pasture (often referred to as a \"\"daily haul\"\" system). This is time consuming and also has to be done regardless of the soil moisture, weather, or time of year.

Cause #1: The Pile is Too Wet A wet pile is easily one of the most common causes of smelly compost. If the pile stays too wet, the beneficial microbes that break down the pile can't do their job, and you get a decaying, putrid odor to the pile instead of the sweet smell of good compost. To fix a wet pile, there are a couple of things you can do: Turn the pile.

In reality, a long distance runner’s main thrust happens behind his or her body. Distance running performed properly is a pushing motion from when the mid-foot strikes the ground. This pushing contributes to the tightness and soreness that can affect the gluteal complex and piriformis muscle. The piriformis muscle lies underneath the gluteus muscle, or buttock. When your glutes and piriformis are tight and fatigued they can cause you to have a sore lower back and hamstrings, poor balance, and even shooting nerve pain down your leg due to sciatica. ( Your sciatic nerve shoots through your piriformis. When inflamed, the piriformis compresses this nerve causing the pain. ) Stretching and strengthening these muscles will help you run more efficiently and avoid injury."

If the blood circulation is needed from the whole thigh area, then they can have the thigh high sock. And if it is the whole leg area, then they will wear the panty hose compression socks.

Edema- this is when a lot of unnecessary fluid build up in one area just beneath the skin causing swellings that could be reduced or prevented if the compressions socks were being worn. Phlebitis- in this case, the veins are affected the most with phlebitis because they swell or inflame mostly around the leg area. Thrombosis- in thrombosis, the presence of a blood clot in the blood vessel causes the blood not to move around freely and this will later cause a lot of swelling to take place."

Vein Health: If you otherwise are normal weight, active, have no symptoms, and walk 10,000 steps each day, there might not be much benefit for routine use of compression. On the other hand, if otherwise symptomatic, overweight, or a job that requires prolong sitting or standing, we recommend compression from the beginning of the day until the end. It is known that properly fitted and manufactured compression reduces symptoms of venous hypertension and the risk of blood clots, as such it simply makes sense to make compression part of your daily life. Post Surgery: In our practice, compression is a part of any vein treatment we perform. We know that compression enhances cosmetic outcomes in patients receiving small vein sclerotherapy, and we know that compression reduces the incidence of blood clots. Despite the low incidence of blood clots after surgery, we recommend routine use of compression until we see patients back for a follow up visit 1-2 weeks later.

Those interesting-looking socks that come in a variety of obnoxious colors are referred to as compression socks. Many people, myself included, wonder if these compression socks actually work, but now after trying them during races, after races and for travel, I can say I am a believer in the compression socks. At first I was very skeptical about the new high sock look while running. I figured the people wearing the compression socks just wanted to get a little extra attention as they were running. But if we think about it, compression socks have been around for a long time as they were used mainly for medical patients and elderly folks who were sitting a lot or after a surgery in order create better blood flow so it wouldn’t pool at the ankles and cause blood clots.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Compression stockings Compression stockings Compression stockings are a specialized hosiery designed to help prevent the occurrence of, and guard against further progression of, venous disorders [1] such as edema, phlebitis and thrombosis. Compression stockings are elastic garments worn around the leg, compressing the limb. This reduces the diameter of distended veins and increases venous blood flow velocity and valve effectiveness. Compression therapy helps decrease venous pressure, prevents venous stasis and impairments of venous walls, and relieves heavy and aching legs. Knee-high compression stockings are used not only to help increase circulation, but also to help prevent the formation of blood clots in the lower legs. They also aid in the treatment of ulcers of the lower legs. Unlike traditional dress or athletic stockings and socks, compression stockings use stronger elastics to create significant pressure on the legs, ankles and feet. Compression stockings are tightest at the ankles and gradually become less constrictive toward the knees and thighs. By compressing the surface veins, arteries and muscles, they force circulating blood through narrower channels. As a result, the arterial pressure is increased, which causes more blood to return to the heart and less blood to pool in the feet."

While Radcliffe was probably the earliest adopter to the compression socks while racing trend, it seems like in the last year the idea of wearing compression socks when running or after running has taken off. As I’ve mentioned before, “new” trends/ideas seem to go through a cycle of heavy emphasis or de-emphasis before settling into around their likely place. So, where do compression socks fall and more importantly do they work? I’ve been wanting to do a post on compression socks for a while, because they seem like the new “fad”. Sigvaris sent me a nice pair of compression socks to test out, so that solved my problem of critiquing something I haven’t used. As I told Sigvaris, I’m going to give a critical review of the science behind it and then my practical experience. As you’ll see shortly, there is a lot of mixed research on compression socks that is likely due to the wide variety of types used and the types of people used in the studies. It’s likely that there is a large individual component to it. To examine that let’s use what one of my physiology professors, Dr. Winchester, called the 3 stool test."

Anyone paying attention to current running shoe trends would have noticed the recent emergence and rise in popularity of a bulky rocker bottom brand of shoes known as HOKA One Ones. These shoes seem to be appearing more and more on runner’s feet. I’ve observed a concomitant uptake of use by both recreational and elite athletes. There are numerous shoes within the HOKA One One range, from the performance oriented Bondi 3, to the ‘running on grass’ Clifton (the lightest HOKA shoe). All of the HOKA One One range (click HERE to view the range) share common features that distinguish the shoes from what we would recognise as a more traditional motion control (e.g. ASICS Kayano) or lighter minimalist type shoe (e.g. NIKE Free). THE FEATURES OF HOKA SHOESThe common features of the HOKA One One range that distinguishes these shoes from most other shoes are: Larger soles (greater stack height) from forefoot to rear-foot (there can be up to 33mm of cushioning under the heel and 29mm under the forefoot, see the Bondi 4 road running shoe HERE. This greater midsole volume can be up to 2.5 x greater than a standard running shoe. The HOKA cushioning: rearfoot and forefoot stack heights Rocker bottom sole (this is not unique to just HOKA One Ones-there are a few shoe brands that produce rocker bottom shoes e.g. Sketchers, Altra)."

The truth is that varicose veins are an external manifestation of an internal weakness in the veins. Varicose veins can appear anywhere on the body, but are by far most common in the legs. The effect they have on the people who have them goes far beyond the cosmetic as varicose veins can range from mildly irritating to extremely painful. This is why it is important to begin to treat varicose veins as soon as possible when they appear. One of the most popular, easiest, and least expensive ways to treat and improve varicose veins in the legs is with compression socks. These socks are widely available online as well as in most pharmacies and medical supply stores. Compression stockings are also available and typically have an elastic waist for comfort and relieve pressure. They come in petite, medium, tall, extra tall, queen and queen plus size.

"text": "Good news: Spanx won't kill you. But some shapewear and compression garmets, like waist training corsets, could compromise your health By Kylie Gilbert | Apr 27, 2015Topics: fitness trends, shapewear, women's health conditions Instagram From Jessica Alba and Kim Kardashian ’s prominent endorsements of “waist-training” corsets to Meb Keflezighi’s memorable display of compression socks when he won the 2014 Boston Marathon, garments that squeeze and cinch are trendier than ever. But whether you’re after the smoothing effects of Spanx, the supposed weight-loss benefits of a corset, or the believed performance payoffs of compression workout gear, you may want to listen up. Doctors warn that there are “real health risks to wearing extra-tight clothing for prolonged periods,” according to a new LA Times report. The dangers of too-tight clothing range from meralgia paresthetica, a condition characterized by burning nerve pain in the thighs (most common in pregnant women and people who gain weight quickly), to gastroesophageal reflux disease —a chronic digestive disease caused by pressure on internal organs which pushes acid backwards from the stomach into the esophagus. Other serious health issues like blood clots, back pain, and difficulty breathing are also a possibility. ( Be sure to check out more dangers of wearing a corset for weight loss . ) Oh, and to up the ick factor, since women are more likely to avoid the bathroom while donning spandex, there’s also an increased risk for urinary tract infections, as well as an increased risk of yeast infections and skin irritation which can occur from sweating in tight compression gear. But doctors aren't saying you need to ditch your favorite compression gear and shapewear all together. The same doctors from the LA Times said most of these problems go away quickly when clothing pressure is off, so there’s no harm in wearing compression garments for short periods of time if they give you a perceived boost."

The LED screens of TVs, computers, smartphones, and video games produce lots of blue light. Exposure to high levels of that light close to bedtime can suppress the production of the sleep-promoting hormone melatonin by the brain’s pineal gland, says Charles Czeisler, M. D., chief of the Division of Sleep and Circadian Disorders at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. That’s why he and other experts advise that it’s best to avoid staring into computer screens and smart phones 2 or 3 hours before you hit the pillow.

If you have high myopia, and in particular high myopia and high astigmatism, an incorrect PD value can cause blurry vision, double vision images, headaches, nausea, and fatigue . In particular a small error in PD with a complex prescription might just give you a small headache sometimes, something that might be very vexing and difficult to pinpoint the cause of. I’ve had hundreds of students over the years, who had these symptoms and never realized why!There is a fairly fundamental problem with PD measurement especially in the high astigmatism / high myopia scenario, which might cause you discomfort that you were never able to figure out. But, first things first: What The Pupillary Distance Is Pupillary Distance (PD) or interpupillary distance (IPD) is the distance (the industry standard is to measure in millimeters) between the centers of the pupils in each eye. This measurement is used when preparing to make prescription eyeglasses. Positioning lenses correctly in relation to the centre of the pupils is especially important for higher powered lenses due to the location of the optical centre of the lenses.

K., Nebraska A: Progressive lenses have limited areas of \"\"soft focus\"\" in the periphery of the lenses — to the left and right of the intermediate viewing zone, in particular. This is unavoidable when creating line-free progressive lenses. But over the years, new manufacturing technology has made these areas less noticeable. Despite this minor limitation of progressive lenses, most people with presbyopia find progressives are more comfortable and provide more natural-feeling vision than bifocals or trifocals. Line-free progressive lenses also provide a more youthful appearance, which is another reason they are so popular. For best results, be sure to have your progressive lenses fitted by an experienced optician.

This causes a ciliary muscle spasm followed by an eye elongation that reduces the farsightedness and accommodative effort. This is nature's way of refining the length of the eye so that excellent vision is the end result. The process is supposed to stop when only a little farsightedness remains. It is constant close work which causes this process to go too far and move the eye into myopia. If we did not learn to read, we would not become nearsighted Is myopia preventable?

They allow you to focus your eyes on a computer screen, which is farther away than reading material is normally held. There are other activities such as for example playing piano (piano glasses) or shooting (shooting glasses) that also require a similar custom fitting. These specialty glasses called task-specific are designed to meet the visual needs of the activity. Generally speaking, bifocals are not necessarily designed for computer work. They tend to force the wearer to tilt the head back in order to focus on the screen while looking through the lower segment of the bifocal lenses. Many people will either lean in or lean backwards to find the right spot in their lenses where they can see best. Such a forced position can cause neck and shoulder pain and it can also cause arm and low back pain. Depending on the individual's vision and type of work, there are several options while selecting computer-specific glasses, such as: Monofocal Monofocal or single-vision glasses designed for computer work will provide the appropriate optical correction for the working distance between the screen and the computer user's eyes."

My sister bought an Acer laptop a few months ago and the screen has cracked without abuse, being dropped, banged etc. The shop she bought it off is saying that she did something to it and it's not covered by warranty. I've found lots of similar complaints about the acer screens on the web, mostly overseas. Anyone aware of an Australian forum collecting info about this problem, or some hints on getting Acer in Australia to pony up to their design fault?

So I'm wondering if glasses designed for computer use actually help (for example, those yellow-tinted computer/gaming glasses I've seen mentioned on Lifehacker or regular glasses with special coatings). They seem pricey and I'm a little skeptical about all the claims, but I also want to protect my vision. Should I buy a pair of these? Signed, Sore Eyes Dear Sore, Vision problems are unfortunately one of the hazards of too much screen time. In fact, the Vision Council found that 70 percent of US adults in one survey reported having some kind of digital eye strain (strained, dry, or red eyes; blurred vision; headaches; back pain; neck pain; or general fatigue) as a result of using digital devices for hours at a time. We've previously noted several ways to prevent or reduce eyestrain, including using the 20-20-20 rule to regularly give your eyes a break and ergonomically optimizing your workstation. In addition to those essential tweaks, computer eyewear could also alleviate or prevent digital eyestrain, depending on your situation. I talked to several eye health experts to find out more about these special glasses, and also did a two-week trial comparing new specially-coated glasses with older ones. Here's what I learned."

Please Share!On This Page: Available features of soft bifocal contacts for astigmatism Hybrid multifocal lenses Cost of lenses and fitting Why you might still need glasses (sometimes)In the past, if you wore toric soft contacts for astigmatism, you had to make a decision sometime after age 40, when you also began to have trouble reading due to presbyopia: Either start wearing reading glasses over your contacts or switch to bifocal rigid gas permeable contact lenses. For many people, neither of these were desirable options. First of all, having to wear and carry around reading glasses defeats the purpose of wearing contact lenses, which is to be free from glasses. And though reading glasses can restore your near vision after age-related presbyopia becomes apparent, readers blur your distance vision — so you have to keep putting them on (for reading) and taking them off (to see across the room). It's annoying. Bifocal contact lenses for astigmatism allow people over age 40 who have irregular corneas to see clearly at all distances and eliminate the need to wear reading glasses over contacts. For some people with astigmatism, switching to bifocal gas permeable (GP) contacts after age 40 can restore clear vision at all distances. But getting used to wearing rigid GP lenses after comfortably wearing soft lenses can be a challenge, and some people simply can't adapt to GP lenses."

If you prefer using the computer without your eyeglasses, then do so. If you feel more comfortable using your eyeglasses while on the computer, then do so. Eyeglasses only correct your vision when you wear them. Your vision will not get better or worse if you wear eyeglasses full time or only as needed.

Flag What do the conference committees do in congress? Answer by Phoenix Sage Confidence votes 18.5KCommunity Manager - Staance Conference committees operate after the House and the Senate have passed different versions of a bill. Conference committees exist to negotiate a compromise bill that both houses can accept. Both houses of Congress must eventually pass the identical legislation for the bill to become law. ( See U. S. Const., art I, sec. 7.) The two houses can reach that identical product through the process of amendments between Houses, where the House passes the Senate bill with a House amendment, or vice versa, but this process can be cumbersome. Thus most major bills become law through using a conference committee. ("

The NCAA committee places an incredible emphasis on this measure, making it probably the single most important parameter to every NCAA team. Beyond that, the RPI is a valid measure of team strength, and therefore it is appropriate to seed teams according to their RPI rank. The Facts T he Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) was created in 1981 by the NCAA Men's Basketball Committee to be used as a supplementary tool to help in deciding which teams make the tournament and where they are seeded. While the exact ratings formula is not publicly published, results were sent to NCAA schools beginning in 1992 after the season was complete. This practice no doubt prompted NCAA schools to pay more heed to this rating and resulted in a heightened emphasis on the RPI, both by the schools and the media. More recently, the media and others (notably CBS, Jerry Palm, Jim Sukup and the Collegiate Basketball News) have highlighted the RPI, if not profiting from, at least linking the RPI to the selections the NCAA committee makes as to which teams make the NCAA Tournament and where they are seeded. This seems to have encouraged people to use the RPI for ranking teams against each other, which is neither the intentioned purpose nor the actual use of the RPI. Rebuttal What Exactly Does the RPI Measure ? The RPI is based on winning percentage."

Introduction and Referral of Bills | Committee Consideration | Calendars and Scheduling | House Floor | Senate Floor | Resolving Differences | Presidential Action Introduction and Referral of Bills Legislation may take one of several forms, depending on the intended purpose. Bills and joint resolutions may become law if enacted during the two-year Congress in which they were introduced. Simple resolutions and concurrent resolutions are the other options; these measures cannot make law, but may be used by each chamber, or by both, to publicly express sentiments or accomplish internal administrative or organizational tasks, such as establishing their rules for proceeding. Only members of each chamber may introduce legislation, though occasionally a member introduces legislation by request of the President. Members and their staff typically consult with nonpartisan attorneys in each chamber’s Legislative Counsel office for assistance in putting policy proposals into legislative language. Members may circulate the bill and ask others in the chamber – often via Dear Colleague letters – to sign on as original co-sponsors of a bill to demonstrate a solid base of support for the idea. In the House, a bill is introduced when it is dropped in the hopper (a wooden box on the House floor)."

Although the prominence of Congress has fluctuated over time, in recent years Congress has been the true center of power in Washington. Congress' tasks become more difficult each year. The movement of legislation through the congressional labyrinth has never been more complicated, and just finding time to debate the issues has become increasingly difficult. Some critics charge Congress with being the source of government expansion. The Representatives and Senators The Job Despite public perceptions to the contrary, hard work is perhaps the most prominent characteristic of a member of Congress' job. The typical representative is a member of about six committees and subcommittees; a senator is a member of about ten. Members are often scheduled to be in two places at the same time. There are also attractions to the job."

Bills may be referred to more than one committee and it may be split so that parts are sent to different committees. The Speaker of the House may set time limits on committees.

"text": "The Committee Process Types of Committees There are seven types of committees: standing committees, select committees, committees of the whole, conference committees, subcommittees, interim committees and oversight/ investigative committees. Standing Committees Standing committees are created within each body - and jointly - for permanent existence. They have specific jurisdictions, or scopes of interest, and are permanently created because of the continuous flow of issues relating to those jurisdictions. For example, since there likely will be a constant need to address financial issues and legislation, both bodies have standing finance committees and there is a Joint Standing Finance Committee comprised of members of each body’s finance committee. The number and titles of standing committees differ between the Senate and House are set forth in the rules of each body. ( House Rules & Senate Rules)Select Committees Select committees are created by each body to address specific issues and report their findings and any recommendations to the full body. Upon the completion of its specified tasks, a select committee is discharged from its duties and dissolved by the presiding officer of the parent body. For example, if the House would like a committee to address the weight limits on our state’s roads, it may create within the House a select committee on state roads’ weight limits. Upon that committee’s report of its findings and recommendations, the House speaker would then disband the committee. Committees of the whole A committee of the whole is merely an informal gathering of the full membership of either the Senate or the House of Delegates to consider a specific issue or bill."

William Domhoff Vintage Books, 1978p61 The policy-formation process is the means by which the power elite formulates policy on larger issues. It is within the organizations of the policy-planning network that the various special interests join together to forge, however slowly and gropingly, the general policies that will benefit them as a whole. It is within the policy process that the various sectors of the business community transcend their interest-group consciousness and develop an overall class consciousness. The staid and dignified policy-formation process is very different from the helter-skelter special-interest process. It appears to be as detached from day-to-day events as the special-interest process seems totally immersed in them. It appears as disinterested and fair-minded as the special-interest process seems self-seeking and biased. Whereas the special-interest process is usually staffed by lesser members of the power elite men and women of the policy-formation network are often from the \"\"oldest\"\" and wealthiest of families, the biggest and most powerful of corporations, and the most prestigious of law schools and university institutes.

The point of this post is purely educational. There are no opinions here regarding the current stimulus package or Geithner’s announcement yesterday that he needs $TWO TRILLION MORE. I’m sorry, was I shouting? In keeping with the main premise of Inside Government – to help educate and inform the public – the following is a detailed look at bills. But, first – a blast from the past for those of you who might remember School House Rock: Pretty cool, huh? Well, that is a very simplified presentation of how bills become law, but, it is on target and most of you probably remember seeing it. Now we move on to greater detail…Where do bills come from?

Among these are the Senate's power of advice and consent with regard to treaties and nominations. The preeminent role of the legislative branch, however, is its concern with legislation. \"\" All legislative Powers\"\" granted to the Federal government by the Constitution, as stated in Article 1, Section 1 , are vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives. The Congress meets at least once a year and has been doing so since 1789 in the following locations: from March 4, 1789, through August 12, 1790, in Federal Hall, New York, New York; from December 6, 1790, through December 2, 1799, in Congress Hall, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and from November 17, 1800, at the Capitol, in Washington, D. C. Since the Constitution prescribes that there be two Senators from each State, the Senate is presently composed of 100 Members. Also pursuant to the Constitution, a Senator must be at least 30 years of age, have been a citizen of the United States for nine years, and, when elected, be a resident of the State for which the Senator is chosen. The term of office is six years and approximately one-third of the total membership of the Senate is elected every second year. Contrasting Procedures of the Senate and the House The order of business in the Senate is simpler than that of the House. While the procedure of both bodies is basically founded on Jefferson's Manual of Parliamentary Practice, the practices of the two bodies are at considerable variance."

Ciboski, editors, The American Presidency (Chicago, IL: Nelson Hall, 1985), pp. 411-419. The Civil Rights Act of 1957 was considered an historic breakthrough because it was the first major civil rights bill to get through Congress in the 20th Century. The new law was badly watered down, however, to meet the criticisms of southern Democrats in the Senate. The 1957 law thus had little or no effect on racial segregation in the United States. A 1960 Civil Rights Act, equally watered-down to meet southern requirements, was regarded as equally ineffectual. On February 28, 1963, President John F. Kennedy sent Congress a strong message on the immediate need for civil rights legislation: \"\"The Negro baby born in America today ... has about one-half as much chance of completing high school as a white baby born in the same place on the same day-one-third as much chance of completing college-one third as much chance of becoming a professional man-twice as much chance of becoming unemployed ... a life expectancy which is seven years less-and the prospects of earning only half as much. \"\" 1This forthright statement was not backed up with a strong civil rights legislative proposal. President Kennedy limited his recommendations to minor improvements in voting rights laws (none of which were very effective in the South), technical assistance to school districts desegregating voluntarily, and an extension of the Civil Rights Commission, a government body which could study civil rights problems but had no power to remedy them. Why were the president’s words so strong and his proposed legislation so weak? \"\""

Answered Dec 2, 2014 · Author has 1k answers and 1.4m answer views The answer to the given question: “Can an isosceles triangle be an equilateral triangle?” depends on which definition you use for “isosceles triangle” ! I’m very sorry to pull a “Bill Clinton” on the person asking this question, but, for some reason, there’s apparently not a total agreement in the field of Mathematics on what the definition of an isosceles triangle is! The ancient Greek mathematician Euclid defined an isosceles triangle as one that has exactly two sides which are congruent. If you accept and go by this definition, then the answer to the given question is a resounding NO, an isosceles triangle can’t be an equilateral triangle! If you accept the more modern definition of an “isosceles triangle”, i.e., a triangle that has at least two congruent sides (this is the definition which I like and prefer!) then: Yes, by definition, an isosceles triangle CAN BE an equilateral triangle! For our discussion, we’ll accept the latter definition of an isosceles triangle, i.e., a triangle that has at least two congruent sides , i.e., at least two sides have the same measure or length; consequently, if we have a triangle ABC with base BC of length a, and side AC is congruent to (≅) side AB, i.e., b (the length of side AC) = c (the length of side AB), then △ABC is an isosceles triangle.¹ An equilateral triangle is one that has three (3) congruent sides; consequently, if we again consider △ABC with base BC , but this time, a (the length of side BC) = b (the length of side AC) = c (the length of side AB), that is, side BC ≅ AC ≅ AB, then, by our accepted definition of an isosceles triangle, equilateral triangle ABC is also an isosceles triangle ;² So, if we accept the definition that an isosceles triangle is one which has at least two congruent sides, then an equilateral triangle which has three congruent sides is also an isosceles triangle, and thus, an isosceles triangle can be an equilateral triangle."

Two triangles are similar if their shapes are similar, but their sizes may be different. An equilateral triangle is similar to another equilateral triangle, but one could have sides of length 1 and the other sides of length 2. These are *similar*.

In modular arithmetic, the numbers we are dealing with are just integers and the operations used are addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The only difference between modular arithmetic and the arithmetic you learned in your primary school is that in modular arithmetic all operations are performed regarding a positive integer, i.e. the modulus. Before going into modular arithmetic, let's review some basic concepts. The division theorem tells us that for two integers a and b where b ≠ 0, there always exists unique integers q and r such that a = qb + r and 0 ≤ r < |b|. For example, a = 17, b =3, we can find q = 5 and r = 2 so that 17 = 3*5+2. a is called the dividend , b is called the divisor, q is called the quotient and r is called the remainder. If r = 0, then we say b divides a or a is divisible by b. This establishes a natural congruence relation on the integers. For a positive integer n, two integers a and b are said to be congruent modulo n (or a is congruent to b modulo n ), if a and b have the same remainder when divided by n (or equivalently if a − b is divisible by n ). It can be expressed as a ≡ b mod n. n is called the modulus."

Recall that parallelograms were quadrilaterals whose opposite sides were parallel. In this section, we will look at quadrilaterals whose opposite sides may intersect at some point. The two types of quadrilaterals we will study are called trapezoids and kites. Let's begin our study by learning some properties of trapezoids. Trapezoids Definition: A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. Since a trapezoid must have exactly one pair of parallel sides, we will need to prove that one pair of opposite sides is parallel and that the other is not in our two-column geometric proofs. If we forget to prove that one pair of opposite sides is not parallel, we do not eliminate the possibility that the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Therefore, that step will be absolutely necessary when we work on different exercises involving trapezoids. Before we dive right into our study of trapezoids, it will be necessary to learn the names of different parts of these quadrilaterals in order to be specific about its sides and angles."

( Leadership)Congruence is the capacity to be centered, authentic, and aligned with one’s purpose both internally (how one feels) and externally (how one acts). Recall that getting to wholeness was about “stepping in” to gather all the fragmented parts of yourself. The next capacity, flexibility, was about “stepping up” as a leader who proactively shapes and engages with life rather than just reacting to it. Congruence is about “stepping out,” venturing out into the world to be of service in a way that is uniquely yours. Conscious leaders know what their purpose is, they know their story, they know where they came from, and they know where they are going. They are living their swadharma —their unique personal calling. Congruence comes about by knowing your own beliefs, being able to articulate those beliefs, and manifesting those same beliefs by your behavior. Essentially, you are able to walk the talk. People are watching you all the time, and when you are in harmony, they see your beliefs, goals, and priorities by watching your behavior."

Congruent angles are two or more angles that have the same measure. In simple words, they have the same number of degrees. It's important to note that the length of the angles' edges or the direction of the angles has no effect on their congruency. As long as their measure is equal, the angles are considered congruent. Examples of Congruent Angles While angle G and angle S are not facing the same direction, we can see that they have the same measure of 42 degrees, and therefore, they are congruent. While angle R and angle Q have edges with different lengths, we can see that they have the same measure of 155 degrees, and therefore, they are congruent. These examples remind us that regardless of the length of the angles' edges or the direction the angles are facing, as long as the angles have the same measure, they are considered congruent."

Recall that an isosceles triangle is a triangle with at least two congruent sides. These congruent sides are called legs. The point at which these legs meet is called the vertex point of the isosceles triangle, and the angle formed by the legs is called the vertex angle.

In this section, we will get even more specific by studying the properties of different parallelograms. Let's learn about what makes rectangles, rhombuses, and squares special figures. Rectangles Definition: A rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles. Notice that we use \"\"quadrilateral\"\" in our definition of rectangles. We could have also said that a rectangle is a parallelogram with four right angles, since and quadrilateral with four right angles is also a parallelogram (because their opposite sides would be parallel). Rectangles have a couple of properties that help distinguish them from other parallelograms. By studying these properties, we will be able to differentiate between various types of parallelograms and classify them more specifically."

"text": "A construction engineer prepares blueprints and oversees building efforts on large-scale construction projects. Most professionals specialize by working on particular types of structures, such as highways or skyscrapers. With the assistance of engineering technicians and drafters, engineers are able to design schematics for safe, functional buildings and roads. A construction engineer may be employed by a private contracting company, a municipal government agency, or a large construction firm. Before the design phase of a project begins, a construction engineer carefully reviews land maps and survey information to make sure an area is stable enough to support a structure. He or she then works with geotechnical and civil engineering experts to get a basic idea of which materials and construction methods would be the most appropriate to use. Rough blueprints are usually submitted to the landowners, who make the decision about whether or not to go ahead with a project. Once plans are in place, he or she can begin revising blueprints. Most construction engineers work with computer-aided drafting ( CAD) programs to produce schematics and simulations. CAD software allows engineers to easily make adjustments to their measurements and calculate important figures."

Although their duties vary greatly depending on the specific construction site assigned, construction workers are often responsible for removing debris, unloading building materials used in construction, building scaffolding or other temporary structures, digging holes, operating equipment, and following construction plans. Salary How much does a construction worker make? According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the 814,470 construction workers employed throughout the United States earn a mean annual construction worker salary of $34,490, which is equivalent to an average hourly wage of $16.58. While the bottom ten percent earns just $19,040 or less on average, the top ten percent of construction workers bring home $58,380 each year. Construction workers employed in residential building construction earn slightly less than average at $32,560, but those that work in natural gas distribution make a mean $46,390 annually. The top-paying states for the profession are Hawaii and New York, where construction workers earn an average $51,500 and $49,350 respectively. Work Environment The majority of construction workers, approximately 59 percent, are employed in either nonresidential building construction, utility system construction, or residential building construction.

They may not want cold joints (due to strength reasons) or crack lines in the concrete for various reasons. But there are a few exceptions to the rule you may use if you need to because forming or pouring the structure would be impossible to do all at once. Exception 1: if it’s a water tight structure that keep water in or out, you can usually get water-stop cold joints approved. Expensive, but can be cheaper than some extreme form engineering or a massive extended crew time pour. Exception 2: Use a bevel cold joint and overlapping rebar so the 2 parts lock together better. Used on freeway sound walls because you don’t have access to the whole site, yet they want it monolithic per plan.3.2k Views · View Upvoters Related Questions More Answers Below Are concrete stairs and slab usually poured separately?

In short: Architects approach their work from a primarily aesthetic point of view, focusing on what the finished job will look like.

IN ORDER TO STAY IN THIS COMPETITION, THE BUILDERS ARE HARD-PRESSED TO COMPLETE THESE BUILDINGS AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE. This has resulted in flouting of various building norms by the builders. Many also employ unskilled workmen and use poor building materials without any proper structural design that ultimately lead to the collapse of the buildings. “Unfortunately building collapse are a regular phenomenon in rapidly urbanizing cities of India.

Their work is the link between scientific discoveries and the commercial applications that meet societal and consumer needs. Many engineers develop new products. During the process, they consider several factors. For example, in developing an industrial robot, engineers specify the functional requirements precisely; design and test the robot's components; integrate the components to produce the final design; and evaluate the design's overall effectiveness, cost, reliability, and safety. This process applies to the development of many different products, such as chemicals, computers, powerplants, helicopters, and toys. In addition to their involvement in design and development, many engineers work in testing, production, or maintenance. These engineers supervise production in factories, determine the causes of a component’s failure, and test manufactured products to maintain quality. They also estimate the time and cost required to complete projects. Supervisory engineers are responsible for major components or entire projects."

[ 2] [3]Behaviorists look at learning as an aspect of conditioning and will advocate a system of rewards and targets in education. Educators who embrace cognitive theory believe that the definition of learning as a change in behavior is too narrow and prefer to study the learner rather than their environment and in particular the complexities of human memory. Those who advocate constructivism believe that a learner's ability to learn relies to a large extent on what he already knows and understands, and the acquisition of knowledge should be an individually tailored process of construction. Transformative learning theory focuses upon the often-necessary change that is required in a learner's preconceptions and world view. Geographical learning theory focuses on the ways in which contexts and environments shape the learning process. [ 1] [4] [5]Outside the realm of educational psychology, techniques to directly observe the functioning of the brain during the learning process, such as event-related potential and functional magnetic resonance imaging, are used in educational neuroscience."

In original usage, student-centered learning aims to develop learner autonomy and independence [1] by putting responsibility for the learning path in the hands of students. [ 2] [3] [4] Student-centered instruction focuses on skills and practices that enable lifelong learning and independent problem-solving. [ 5] Student-centered learning theory and practice are based on the constructivist learning theory that emphasizes the learner's critical role in constructing meaning from new information and prior experience. Student-centered learning puts students' interests first, acknowledging student voice as central to the learning experience. In a student-centered learning space, students choose what they will learn, how they will learn, and how they will assess their own learning. [ 4] This is in contrast to traditional education, also dubbed \"\"teacher-centered learning\"\", which situates the teacher as the primarily \"\"active\"\" role while students take a more \"\"passive\"\", receptive role. In a teacher-centered classroom, teachers choose what the students will learn, how the students will learn, and how the students will be assessed on their learning. In contrast, student-centered learning requires students to be active, responsible participants in their own learning and with their own pace of learning. [ 6]Usage of the term \"\"student-centered learning\"\" may also simply refer to educational mindsets or instructional methods that recognize individual differences in learners. ["

Urie Bronfenbrenner was a Russian-American developmental psychologist whose bioecological model was integral to the formation of American Headstart pre-kindergarten programs. [ 1] He was influenced by fellow developmental psychologist Lev Vygotsky. The model suggests the interactions between the individual and their environment, categorized into various systems, shape their development over time. Read Article Discovery Learning (Bruner)Discovery Learning is a method of inquiry-based instruction, discovery learning believes that it is best for learners to discover facts and relationships for themselves. Contents Contributors Key Concepts Resources and References Contributors Jerome Bruner (1915 – )Key Concepts Discovery learning is an inquiry-based, constructivist learning theory that takes place in problem solving situations where the learner draws on his or her own past experience and existing knowledge to discover facts and relationships and new truths to be learned [1]. Students interact with the world by exploring and manipulating objects, wrestling with questions and controversies, or performing experiments. As a result, students may be more more likely to remember concepts and knowledge discovered on their own (in contrast to a transmissionist model) [2]. Models that are based upon discovery learning model include: guided discovery, problem-based learning, simulation-based learning, case-based learning, incidental learning, among others. The theory is closely related to work by Jean Piaget and Seymour Papert. Proponents of this theory believe that discovery learning:encourages active engagementpromotes motivationpromotes autonomy, responsibility, independencedevelops creativity and problem solving skills.tailors learning experiences Critics believe that discovery learning:creates cognitive overloadmay result in potential misconceptionsmakes it difficult for teachers to detect problems and misconceptions Additional Resources and References References Bruner, J.

Within that context, there are four central themes that are unique to a developmental perspective and that bear on issues in childhood education. The first is the role of nature versus nurture in shaping development. Specifically, developmentalists want to know the contribution of genetic or maturational influences on development as well as the role played by environmental experiences. One important educational issue related to this topic is the question of whether a child's en-trance age, or maturational level, is important for school success. For this and other important educational questions, nature and nurture interact in complex ways to shape a child's academic growth. The second question focuses on whether children's growth proceeds in a continuous or more stage-like fashion. Stage theories, such as those proposed by Jean Piaget, Erik Erikson, and Sigmund Freud, contend that development progresses through maturationally determined stages. While this perspective underscores the contributions of both biology and the environment, a greater emphasis is placed on a maturationally predetermined progression through a fixed developmental sequence. Many researchers and theorists dispute such a rigid, step-like theory of development, emphasizing instead a more continuous, gradual process influenced equally by both brain maturation and environmental stimulation."

Kingston, University of Edinburgh , Edinburgh, Scotland ABSTRACT: The transfer of tacit knowledge from those who have it to those who need it is often seen as the Holy Grail of knowledge management. Yet the literature on tacit knowledge gives mixed messages about the feasibility of, or techniques for, transferring tacit knowledge, and it is difficult to evaluate the strengths of the competing claims. Part of the problem is that there are several debates in the knowledge management community that affect authors’ underlying assumptions about tacit knowledge, but authors of papers often fail to make clear their position on these various debates. This is ironic, given the topic being discussed. This paper is intended to make clear the key underlying assumptions in the literature that are relevant to capture and sharing of tacit knowledge. Four such assumptions are discussed: whether tacit knowledge includes all knowledge that is not explicit; whether tacit knowledge is unrecordable or simply unrecorded; whether knowledge can be owned by groups as well as individuals; and whether the capture of partial knowledge is a necessary step in knowledge sharing, or a waste of effort because the subjectivity of the knowledge structures in an expert’s head means that, if knowledge can be captured at all, it must be captured in its entirety or vital context is lost. The paper makes some recommendations for classifying tacit knowledge, and for capture (where feasible) and sharing techniques for different categories of tacit knowledge. Keywords: Tacit knowledge, Knowledge capture, Knowledge sharing, Assumptions, Classification1."

Psychological: This view considers communication as the act of sending a message to a receiver, and the feelings and thoughts of the receiver upon interpreting the message. 3. Social Constructionist (Symbolic Interactionist): This view considers communication to be the product of the interactants sharing and creating meaning. The Constructionist View can also be defined as, how you say something determines what the message is. The Constructionist View assumes that “truth” and “ideas” are constructed or invented through the social process of communication. Robert T. Craig saw the Constructionist View or the constitutive view as it’s called in his article, as “…an ongoing process that symbolically forms and re-forms our personal identities.” ( Craig, 125)."

Constructivism states that children learn through adaptation. Children are not passive in knowledge, but active at making meaning, testing out theories, and trying to make sense out of the world and themselves. Constructivism is a philosophy of learning founded on the premise that, by reflecting on our experiences, we construct our own understanding of the world we live in. Each of us generates our own “rules” and “mental models,” which we use to make sense of our experiences. Learning, therefore, is simply the process of adjusting our mental models to accommodate new experiences. ( funderstanding) It is also considered to be a child centered theory that focuses on the knowledge of interpretation and experience-based activities. The focus of the knowledge is no to be reproduced, but it is to construct context-rich activities, according to (Matusevich)Primary Theorists Piaget PERSONAL INFORMATION: Jean Piaget (1896-1980) was a Swiss scientist noted for his extensive research related to child development and how children learn (Piaget). In studying children and the way they think, Piaget was able to form theories on how people in general develop knowledge through actual, tangible research he conducted at the Rousseau Institute in Geneva (Butler-Bowdon)."

"text": "Most influential theories of learning Learning is defined as a process that brings together personal and environmental experiences and influences for acquiring, enriching or modifying one’s knowledge, skills, values, attitudes, behaviour and world views. Learning theories develop hypotheses that describe how this process takes place. The scientific study of learning started in earnest at the dawn of the 20th century. The major concepts and theories of learning include behaviourist theories, cognitive psychology, constructivism, social constructivism, experiential learning, multiple intelligence, and situated learning theory and community of practice. Behaviourism The behaviourist perspectives of learning originated in the early 1900s, and became dominant in early 20th century. The basic idea of behaviourism is that learning consists of a change in behaviour due to the acquisition, reinforcement and application of associations between stimuli from the environment and observable responses of the individual. Behaviourists are interested in measurable changes in behaviour. Thorndike, one major behaviourist theorist, put forward that (1) a response to a stimulus is reinforced when followed by a positive rewarding effect, and (2) a response to a stimulus becomes stronger by exercise and repetition. This view of learning is akin to the “drill-and-practice” programmes. Skinner, another influential behaviourist, proposed his variant of behaviourism called “operant conditioning”."

Similarly, different students may have different learning styles, such as preferring to learn through previous experience, watching from afar or immediate and direct attempting. It is not possible to deliver a standard teaching method to ensure all students effectively comprehend what is being taught. Due to this, it is utmost important to Identify and work with the individual learning style of a student. This enables the teacher to interact better with them and to enhance their unique talents.

Middleton and Photini A. Spanian (2002) found five main factors that influence motivation: Download Article First, motivation or lack of motivation is learned. In primary grades many children report that mathematics is their favorite subject. However, educators follow grouping practices, which convince students in the middle grades that only the fast students can succeed and success is an innate ability. These poor attitudes extend to high school and college with students attempting to avoid the subject where they feel they are poor learners. Second, motivation hinges on students' perception of their abilities to succeed or fail. Researchers have found that if students are successful about 70% of the time they will continue to be engaged. Third, intrinsic motivation is better than a reward. Thus mathematics teachers must find strategies that interest the student in significant, rich mathematical thinking. Fourth, inequities are influenced by how different groups are taught to view mathematics. Past studies have indicated that teachers expect greater success from boys studying mathematics and expect more boys to study higher level mathematics."

It even does not seem excessive to claim that there hardly exists another discipline which produces so high percentage of work on itself. It is quite peculiar that IR scholars are able to spend almost a century by defining and framing IR theoretical assumptions and by estimating the borders and overlapping fields of certain streams within IR. By this essay I aim at enriching the kind of IR theorizing outlined above – by my own means and capabilities. Due to my personal interest, I have chosen a strictly theoretical question to consider regardless of any potential practical relevance. Though constructivism and post-structuralism undeniably share some common post-modern pillars, the two are oftentimes considered as non compatible with each-other. However, I still have not acquired a thorough understanding of the necessary distinction between the two. Unfortunately, this confusion has neither eliminated due to the writing of this essay. Notwithstanding, I have clarified some aspects of these streams where they leave the common path – what I attempt to share here. Constructivism and post-structuralism though might be handled as two different trace of thoughts, even as being of different roots."

"text": "A Criticism For Social Constructivist Theory Education Essay Print Reference this Published: 23rd March, 2015Disclaimer: This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers. Any opinions, findings, conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of UK Essays. Child psychology is considered to be an integral part of the education system which is very much evident in the layout of the National Curriculum (1999). However, this education system has been assessed and evaluated in terms of its impact on children's learning by various independent enquiries such as The Rose Review (2009) and The Cambridge Review (2009). In this assignment I will analyse the impact of two major theories, behaviourism and social constructivism, on the teaching and learning of a child. In order to understand the ideology and implication of these theories, they will be evaluated in consideration to the classroom environment of today. I will critically analyse these theoretical approaches adapted by the teacher in literacy, numeracy and art lessons, using examples from my observations. It will be done by comparing the case study of two children in a year 1 classroom who are at different levels of development. By assessing them in three different areas of curriculum, I will evaluate the impact of these two theories and the pedagogical approaches, on the learning of those two children."

Find out now!By Lisa Milbrand Facebook Pinterest Twitter Emailh You know you're going to be on the lookout for labor contractions as that due date approaches—so what exactly are you supposed to be feeling? According to the experts, that can be kind of hard to spell out exactly. \"\" It's always difficult to describe what labor contractions feel like,\"\" says Paul du Treil, M. D., director of maternal and child health at Touro Infirmary in New Orleans. \"\" It's a little bit different for everybody, so you can't really say what you're going to feel.\"\" Still, there are a few clues that what you're feeling is actually labor contractions. Labor contractions may feel like menstrual cramps. Really bad menstrual cramps. At least, that's the most common description that's bandied about. \"\""

Getty Images We've all been through it but none of us can remember it. Here's what a baby experiences as he embarks on his journey to join the human race. Early labour Mum will be: Experiencing light contractions about 20 minutes apart, which will gradually come closer together until they're every five minutes. Baby will be: Pressing his head into the birth canal to start the dilation of the cervix (opening of the neck of the womb). As mum goes into labour she will be producing lots of the love hormone, oxytocin, which puts the baby in a content, calm mood. Hopefully he'll remain that way. \"\" Once your waters have broken if there are traces of meconium [the baby's fecal matter] in the fluid, it can be an indication of baby being distressed,\"\" explains Joyce Milne, a nurturing birth certified doula (www.doulababyabudhabi.com).

"text": "Waters Breaking – What To Do According to popular movies and drama shows, labour always starts with a pop – the heavily pregnant woman’s waters break and there’s a sudden puddle to deal with. You might be feeling nervous about going into public at the end of your pregnancy incase your waters break, but in actual fact your labour is much more likely to begin with contractions. Around 10-15% of women experience a rupture of the membranes (ROM) at the start of labour. Even so, those women rarely deal with a large puddle of fluid. In most cases the waters slowly leak rather than gush. Whether a gush or a slow leak, this happens most often overnight or as you get up in the morning, so it’s a good idea to put a waterproof mat on your mattress just in case. One mother explains her experience, “I woke up at 1am to go to the toilet, still three weeks away from my due date. I went back to bed, and as I was falling asleep my waters broke. In my tiredness I actually thought I was wetting the bed! I got up and walked to the shower where they gushed."

Many first time as well as seasoned moms aren’t sure what this means. If reports of “one centimeter, 25%, -2” leave you feeling dazed and confused, this explanation of effacement, dilation and station will keep you in the know at your next check up. Effacement Prior to pregnancy and into much of the third trimester your cervix is long and thick. As labor nears it begins to shorten and thin out. This action is referred to as effacement. Effacement is generally measured in percentages by doctors and midwives. When you have an exam your provider will tell you that it is anywhere from 0% (not effaced at all) to 100% (completely effaced and thin). When your cervix is completely effaced it becomes part of the uterine wall and your mucus plug is released, allowing the baby to pass through. Dilation Your cervix should stay tight and closed with no dilation until late into your third trimester."

Even if you didn’t know much about pregnancy and birth when you conceived, you were probably aware of contractions — your body's uncomfortable but essential means of pushing your baby down the birth canal and out into the world. But you may not have known that there are several types of contractions, and experiencing them doesn’t always mean you’re about to give birth. From what contractions feel like to how to know you’re actually in labor, here are the basics you need to know. The types of contractions There are three kinds of contractions you may experience during pregnancy: Practice contractions, a.k.a., Braxton Hicks contractions: These can occur any time after the middle of your pregnancy (or not at all). Practice contractions might help to get the cervix ripe — but they don't actually cause cervical dilation or effacement that occurs during labor. False labor contractions: These contractions are irregular and usually stop if you change positions. They may be accompanied by other false labor signs. Labor contractions: In the weeks before birth, you’ll likely also experience many common signs of real labor that lead up to real labor contractions."

Your uterus can do the same thing if it gets too thin. Is a woman has a thinning of the uterus, she may be advised against having more children due to the possibility of uterine rupture (which isn't actually very common, but it would be scary if it did happen). I'm not exactly sure what causes it (other than c-sections I guess? Or it is actually caused by pregnancy but complicated by c-sections rather...some women have good thick uterine walls, other women, not so much) I have had 4 c-sections, and for more of them they cut at the same incision, with my last one they cut at a new incision because the scar tissue was too bad. So, it just sorta depends on what the doctor wants to do. It is possible to have a miscarriage due to implantation occurring on scar tissue, but i am not sure how common that is, i don't know if anyone knows- it could could be a reason, but then it may be something else as well. I am so sorry to hear about the m/c, I had one 2 years ago and wondered if it was for the same reason you mentioned- my doctor said that there are tons of possibilities and i would only drive myself mad trying to figure the \"\"why\"\" out."

Many symptoms are present during a normal pregnancy. You may not always be able to identify a specific problem; you may just feel that something is different from what you have previously experienced. As you read the list of signs and symptoms, the question to keep in mind is whether a change has appeared from what has been usual for you: Menstrual-like cramps -You may feel dull, aching cramps in the lower part of your abdomen. They may be continuous or come and go in a rhythmic pattern. Low backache - The backache you experience in preterm labor is usually located in the lower back. It may come in waves and may travel to the front of your abdomen. This ache is not relieved by changing your position. It may come and go, or seem different from the normal backache you have felt at other times during your pregnancy."

It can take many hours, or even days, before you're in established labour. Established labour is when your cervix has dilated to more than 3cm and regular contractions are opening the cervix. During the latent phase, it's a good idea to have something to eat and drink as you'll need the energy once labour is established. If your labour starts at night, try to stay comfortable and relaxed. Sleep if you can. If your labour starts during the day, keep upright and gently active."

Think about when you go pee – then someone knocks on the door and you stop the stream of pee – that muscle that you contract to stop the flow of urine is the PC muscle. Try flexing it right now. You just did a kegel rep!This is also the muscle you use to hold in a fart. If you haven’t found it yet, pretend you are holding in a poop – that’s the muscle. When you do these, try not to flex other muscles, like your stomach or thighs. It’s okay if you’re squeezing your butt hole (that’s part of the PC muscle), but don’t squeeze your butt cheeks.

Braxton Hicks contractions are intermittent uterine contractions that start in early pregnancy, although you probably won't notice them until sometime after midpregnancy. ( Some women never notice them.) They're named for John Braxton Hicks, the English doctor who first described them in 1872. As your pregnancy progresses, Braxton Hicks contractions tend to occur somewhat more often, but until you get to your last few weeks, they'll probably remain infrequent, irregular, and painless. However, sometimes Braxton Hicks contractions are hard to distinguish from early signs of preterm labor, so play it safe and don't try to make the diagnosis yourself. If you haven't hit 37 weeks yet and you're having regular contractions, or if you have any of the signs of preterm labor listed below, call your provider immediately. By the time you're within a couple of weeks of your due date, it's likely that your cervix has begun to \"\"ripen,\"\" or gradually soften up in preparation for labor. Contractions around this time may get more intense and more frequent, and they may cause some discomfort. Unlike the earlier painless and sporadic Braxton Hicks contractions, which caused no obvious cervical changes, these contractions may help your cervix thin out (efface) and maybe even open up (dilate) a bit."

Birds of prey are often known as raptors and other species of these type include vultures, eagles, ospreys and falcons. Technically speaking, a bird of prey is any species that hunts for their food while flying through the air and preys on animals. Their beaks are designed fairly large and are ideal for piercing or tearing pieces of flesh. Hawks are carnivores and have the ability to dive at 120 miles per hour to attack their prey. They will commonly feed on squirrels, mice, moles and shrews but are fully capable of killing and consuming animals such as raccoons, cats and dogs. Additionally, they enjoy small birds, bats, ducks, rabbits, fish, lizards, frogs, snakes, toads and the occasional grasshopper. Hawks swallow the fur, feathers and bones of their prey and regurgitate anything that their bodies cannot digest. When finding the answer to the, “What do hawks eat?”"

Some interactions are harmful to the organisms involved, whereas others provide benefits for one or both of the organisms. Food Chains & Food Webs Food chains or food webs describe the eating relationships between species and represent the flow of energy through an ecosystem. The Sun provides energy to producers, such as plants. Producers convert this energy into a form that can be consumed by animals. Animals that eat producers are then consumed by animals at higher trophic levels. Eventually all organisms are broken back down into nutrients by decomposers. Producers use these nutrients to convert solar energy into a usable form and the food chain continues."

[ 1] Predators may or may not kill their prey prior to feeding on it, but the act of predation often results in the death of the prey and the eventual absorption of the prey's tissue through digestion. Predation is often, though not always, carnivory, one of several heterotrophic consumer-resource interactions. [ 2] Different feeding behaviors such as parasitism, parasitoidism, micropredation and predation form a continuum rather than being entirely separate strategies. [ 1] Predation strategies can be classified by trophic level or diet, by specialization, and by the predator's interaction with prey. Coevolutionary selective pressures imposed on each other by predator and prey often result in an evolutionary arms race, resulting in antipredator adaptations in the prey and adaptations that improve hunting efficiency in the predator.

Birds are sometimes reported at large in Western Europe, especially Britain, but it is a popular species in falconry and these records almost certainly all refer to escapes from captivity. The name is derived from the Greek para, meaning beside, near or like, and the Latin buteo, referring to a kind of buzzard; uni meaning once; and cinctus meaning girdled, referring to the white band at the tip of the tail. [ 2] John James Audubon gave this bird its English name in honor of his ornithological companion, financial supporter, and friend Edward Harris. [ 3]The Harris's hawk is notable for its behavior of hunting cooperatively in packs consisting of tolerant groups, while other raptors often hunt alone.

"text": "Full Answer While birds of prey mostly eat rodents and small land-based animals, they may eat smaller birds if the opportunity presents itself. The amount of birds in their diet and the types eaten vary greatly, depending on species and environment. Different types of owls sometimes eat jays, crows, sparrows, starlings, ducks and pigeons. Different types of hawks also have varying amounts of small birds in their diet. The sharp-skinned hawk almost entirely subsists off of other birds, and the Cooper's hawk is estimated to eat small birds for at least half of its diet. Cats are also common predators of birds, particularly feral cats without owners that roam at night and have been known to snatch birds from their nests. One feral cat can account for hundreds of bird deaths in a year. Dogs may eat ground-nesting birds if they encounter them. Birds may also be eaten by snakes, foxes, squirrels, weasels, opossums and raccoons. While insects generally do not eat birds, the praying mantis may hunt and kill hummingbirds, and swarms of stinging insects may kill birds that are too close to their nests."

In Latin, rapere means to literally \"\"seize or take by force\"\", which is how they obtain their food. Birds of prey are apex predators and they eat other animals for their sustenance. Predatory birds include eagles, hawks, falcons, buzzards, harriers, kites, ospreys, true hawks, New World vultures (from North and South America), caracaras, secretary birds, and owls. Raptors are adapted to catching, dispatching, and consuming their chosen foods. To be considered a bird of prey, they must have strong feet and curving talons for gripping prey, a curved beak for ripping apart their food and/or dispatching it, and strong eyesight (vultures are a special exception to most of these, but they are still categorized as a bird of prey due to genetic classification). Today I want to focus on the beaks of birds of prey; in particular, falcons, kites, and some accipiters (namely, sharp-shinned and Cooper's hawks). I also want to introduce you to some interesting avian terminology. A peregrine falcon with a clearly defined tomial tooth (Photo: Taken at Smithsonian Natural History Museum)Raptor beaks, like all bird beaks, have an underlying boney support system for both the upper mandible (maxilla) and lower mandible (mandible), that is super light and hollow like their bones."

Unlike other vipers, this animal has a distinctive neck. It is usually has a light brown base color and darker, irregular bands around the body. The copperhead lives mostly in forested regions, using the cover of leaves on the forest floor for camouflage. This snake had branched out to other regions, and can be found along waterways and in rocky territory. For years, people were under the impression that the bite from a copperhead snake was fatal. It is possible for the snake to inject enough venom to kill a human; however, this scenario almost never happens. When a copperhead snakes bites, it is because the animal is fearful. It will produce enough venom in the bite to injure it’s attacker and buy the snake time to escape."

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Science Biology Zoology or Animal Biology Animal Behavior What snakes look like copperheads? Flag What snakes look like copperheads? Answer by Mr Toad Confidence votes 34Well, that's to some degree a matter of opinion. Copperheads are tan-to-brown snakes with light-colored 'hourglass' bands (wide at the sides and narrow in the middle). The most distinguishing feature is usually the lighter, often coppery-colored head, but this may vary. I once came across an older female with a relatively brown head, not dramatically lighter than the rest of her body. They tend to be rather chunky-looking as they get bigger, and are often pretty sluggish and calm. They tend to be found in rocky or weedy upland fields where logs or other shelter is common, and they seem to be more active hunters at night in my experience. So, what do we have that's similar? The snakes that are most often confused with Copperheads are either common Water Snakes (darker brown with dark hourglass bands and a dark head) which are (as you might expect) found near water and tend to be very irritable, unpleasant snakes, and Eastern Hognose Snakes, which are found in the same sort of habitat, and have broad heads, but are otherwise rather different - blotchy pattern instead of banded."

Unlike many species that are unable to cope with human altered habitats, copperheads often thrive in disturbed areas. Copperhead bites are serious, but fatalities are exceedingly rare, and the shy snakes will only bite if you handle or step on them. Identify baby copperheads by observing several different criteria, including their pattern, tail tip and body shape. Copperhead Basics Five different subspecies of the copperhead inhabit North America. Northern copperheads (Agkistrodon contortrix mokasen) live throughout the low mountains and piedmont of the southeastern United States, while southern copperheads (A. c. contortix) inhabit the coastal plain of the Southeastern United States. Moving west, Osage copperheads (A. c. phaeogaster) range throughout Missouri, Kansas and parks of Oklahoma. The broad-banded copperhead (A. c. laticinctus) replaces the Osage copperhead to the south of its range. The Trans-Pecos copperhead (A. c. pictigaster) lives only in southwest Texas. Integration between the subspecies is common along adjacent portions of their range; an individual specimen may resemble either of the discrete subspecies or a combination thereof."

"text": "How can you tell if snake is poisonous With the exception of the Coral Snake (see pix), all poisonous snakes in the USA are pit vipers. This means the Copperhead, the Cottonmouth, and many species of rattlesnakes. These snakes are really fat, with big, fat heads. They have slits for pupils. The rattlesnakes have rattles on the end of their tails. So they're pretty easy to identify. 99% of the time, the snake you see will not be venomous. If it's a thin snake, it's safe! Remember, all snakes have triangular heads, and most have colors and patterns of some type. So those clues won't help you."

Credit: Tim Nowak and Hamidreza Marvi. Corn snakes are nonvenomous snakes found primarily in the southeastern United States. They are medium-size snakes, brightly colored with individual patterns. Corn snakes are fairly calm and easy to care for. They are popular as pets. But watch out, corn snake owners — these elegant serpents are skilled at escaping from their homes. There are a few different ideas about how the corn snake got its name. According to the Smithsonian National Zoological Park, corn snakes' belly markings look similar to the kernel pattern on Indian corn. The Animal Diversity Web (ADW), a database maintained by the Museum of Zoology at the University of Michigan, reports that the corn snake's name comes from the fact that it can often be found in corn and other crop fields, while Davidson College's Herps of North Carolina says the name stems from the fact that corn snakes often live in barns where rats come to feed on corn and other grains."

Their geographic range extends from southern New England to the eastern parts of Kansas and Nebraska, and then south to eastern Texas to the Florida panhandle. They are also found in localized parts of western Texas and northern Coahuila and Chihuahua, Mexico. Copperhead subspecies are recognized by slight changes in color pattern shape and hue. Five subspecies are recognized: Northern Copperhead ( A. c. mokasen) - Widely extends throughout the United States, southern New England (USA) to Coahuila and Chihuahua, Mexico. Southern Copperhead ( A. c. contortrix) - Extends through Massachusetts, westward to Texas and southeastern Nebraska. Broad Banded Copperhead ( A. c. laticinctus) - Confined to southern border of Kansas and Oklahoma, and central Texas. Trans-Pecos Copperhead ( A. c. pictigaster) - Confined to the Trans-Pecos (far west Texas) region as well as northeastern Mexico. Osage Copperhead ( A. c. phaeogaster) - Found in the central region of the United States, where they are most prominent in Missouri and eastern Kansas.

There are thousands of types (species) of snakes in the world, while more than one hundred species are found in North America – and some of them are poisonous (venomous). The poisonous (venomous) snakes of North America fall into two groups: Coral Snakes and Pit Vipers (which include Rattlesnakes, Cottonmouth, & Copperhead)SNAKE BITE KIT (Sawyer Products Extractor Pump Kit)First, know that snakes only bite when they are provoked (typically), or when you’ve unknowingly startled them. By simply leaving them alone, you should be okay. These dangerous snakes have a heat-sensitive sensory organ on each side of the head that enables them to locate warm-blooded prey and strike accurately, even in the dark. Copperhead The Copperhead, a pit viper, widespread throughout the United States, is responsible for most of the venomous bites. Copperhead bites are painful, but rarely pose a serious threat to human life. However, anyone who is bitten by a Copperhead should still seek medical attention as soon as possible. They are usually a tan to copper color, but can vary widely based on region. Common are the patches of hourglass markings on its back and their copper-colored triangular looking head."

Likewise, lethal and highly toxic do not equate (always) to the level of threat to humans. The yellowbelly sea snake has among the most deadly bites of any snake in North America, but because it rarely leaves the water, there have been no reported human deaths from its bite. The good news is that snake bites are pretty rare in the United States with estimates between 1,000 to 2,000 cases each year and fatalities from those bites averaging less than a handful."

Credit: Matt Jeppson | Shutterstock Copperhead snakes are some of the more commonly seen North American snakes. They're also the most likely to bite, although their venom is relatively mild, and their bites are rarely fatal for humans. These snakes get their name, fittingly, from their copper-red heads, according to the biology department at Pennsylvania State University. Some other snakes are referred to as copperheads, which is a common (nonscientific) name. Water moccasins (cottonmouths), radiated rat snakes, Australian copperheads and sharp-nosed pit vipers are all sometimes called copperheads, but these are different species from the North American copperhead ( Agkistrodon contortrix ). Copperheads are pit vipers, like rattlesnakes and water moccasins. Pit vipers have \"\"heat-sensory pits between eye and nostril on each side of head,\"\" which are able to detect minute differences in temperatures so that the snakes can accurately strike the source of heat, which is often potential prey. Copperhead \"\"behavior is very much like that of most other pit vipers,\"\" said herpetologist Jeff Beane, collections manager of amphibians and reptiles at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences. Characteristics Copperheads are medium-size snakes, averaging between 2 and 3 feet (0.6 to 0.9 meters) in length."

"text": "Cottonmouths (Agkistrodon piscivorus), also called water moccasins, are venomous water snakes of the pit viper family. These snakes are native to the rivers, lakes and swamps of the southeastern United States, where their range and habitat often overlap with other, harmless water snakes. Many of these nonvenomous water snakes are mistaken for cottonmouths due in part to similar coloration or patterns and are often needlessly killed. Water Snakes Several species of the genus Nerodia, or water snakes, are mistaken for cottonmouths regularly throughout their range. These snakes, like the northern water snake, broad-banded water snake, yellow-bellied water snake and the Mississippi green water snake can superficially resemble a cottonmouth due to their dark, dull coloration, rough scales and the uniform bands around their bodies. Because they also spend much of their time in the water, these snakes may be difficult to identify at first glance. Graham's Crayfish Snake Graham's crayfish snake has a range that overlaps much of the cottonmouth's and, like the cottonmouth, this species spends a great deal of its time in and near the water. They can also resemble cottonmouths in appearance, with their dull brownish scales. Unlike cottonmouths, however, Graham's crayfish snakes have a light yellow or tan stripe along their sides, which is not always obvious to observers, especially when seen from above. These snakes are nonvenomous and hesitate to bite even when handled, and tend to be secretive."

They are generally a dark shade of brown or a dull black and will occasionally have lighter banding visible on their sides. The younger snakes have lighter color and more distinct patterns. Click here for several more photographs, including juvenile cottonmouths. The body of this snake is considered to be bulky with a distinct neck going into a relatively large, triangular head. The tail also tapers off quickly at the end of the body, from fat to thin. Like most pit vipers, the cottonmouth has pupils which are shaped like slits. This snake is considered very venomous, producing a toxin which prohibits the ability of the blood to clot while destroying tissue on a cellular level. Any area that comes in contact with water moccasin venom will begin to hemorrhage, giving the name \"\"cytotoxic\"\" (similar to ‘hemotoxic’ ) to this type of poison.

It is most likely based on Tampa, Florida but this is unknown. It is mused that Cottonmouth would exist in the same fictional world as the 3D and HD Universes, because of overlaps and references within them. Cottonmouth is much more modern, cleaner and safer than Carcer City, with skyscrapers in the area of Downtown, as well as domiciled houses and blocks. Contents [ show]About the City Rockstar confirms that Cottonmouth is inspired by several southern US cities such as Tampa, New Orleans, Atlanta and Charleston but is probably based on Tampa due to the city being in a Florida atmosphere. One possible reason for this is that the skyline (as seen in the level \"\"Domestic Disturbance\"\") looks fairly similar to that seen in Tampa. It is currently not known when exactly the city was founded and its Mayor remains unnamed. Geography In the level ‘Most Wanted’ many of the houses are surrounded by palm trees, which would seem to link the city to Florida, due to the more tropical climate needed for palm trees to thrive. This possibility is strengthened by the Police Mavericks seen to share the same colour scheme as the Vice City Police Department (with Vice City being based on Miami, Florida). But in-game, mountains are seen so Florida could not possibly house the city of Cottonmouth because Florida is a mostly flat state with no mountains at all."

Mc Garrity 2Florida's native snakes play important roles in the environment, serving as prey for many native animals and helping to regulate amphibian and rodent populations. Considering the fact that rodents worldwide help to spread numerous human diseases, we would be well-advised to learn to respect and appreciate snakes for the role they play in our environment. Unfortunately, many snakes are now threatened by habitat loss caused by development of natural habitats to meet the needs of Florida's growing human population. Additionally, large numbers of snakes are killed each year as a result of road mortality and persecution by humans. In the US, humans kill thousands of snakes each year, yet only 5–6 people die each year of venomous snakebites. In order for snakes and people to safely coexist, it is important that Floridians learn to identify, understand, and respect snakes. In residential areas where human-snake encounters may occur, we recommend a three-part proactive approach for coexisting safely with snakes. This document provides information on the first step of this proactive approach—learning to identify Florida's commonly encountered non-venomous and venomous snakes. Please note that, in keeping with the leave it be attitude that we advocate, we recommend that you avoid handling snakes if at all possible and never attempt to handle a snake with your bare hands or attempt to handle any venomous snake—that is a task best left to professionals. Non-Venomous Snakes Florida is home to 46 species of native snakes, only six of which are venomous."

We know now that these are two names for what operate as essentially the same creature, and that they are both deadly poisonous. It is easy to see why the two are often thought of as being different however, which is why we thought it fitting to reveal more about these fascinating snakes. Photo by Hunter-Desportes Photo by soulsurvivor08Physical Characteristics The Water Moccasin or Cottonmouth is quite a large snake, and its muscular body can measure anywhere from 30 to 48 inches. The variety often referred to as Cottonmouth is actually closely related to the Copperhead Viper or Highland Moccasin which grows from 24 to 36 inches and it is quite easy to recognize given its triangular head and distinctive elliptical pupils. The body of the snake is typically colored brown with olive and black markings often present. Although the belly of the snake is a bit lighter in color, the same stripes and markings that can be seen on top go across the belly as well. The name Cottonmouth actually stems from the fact that white markings that look like a patch of cotton can be seen around the area of the throat. Habits Both people who are familiar with the Water Moccasin and the Copperhead know that they coil up tightly and open their mouth in preparation for a strike. Regardless of what name it goes by, this is quite an aggressive snake to be sure, and it displays many of the same characteristics as highly territorial animals, including mammals."

"text": "\"Although several physical attributes must be observed, such as the shape of the head, color of the belly and type of scales, in order to positively identify a species, a snake's color and pattern give immediate clues that can be noted from a safe distance. True diamond patterns on a snake are rare, and snakes with these markings should be considered dangerous until positively identified. Diamond Markings Diamond-shaped markings are common to only two types of snakes in North America. There are, however, other snakes with similar markings that are sometimes mistaken as having diamond-shaped markings. These actually have markings that are referred to as blotches or reticulation rather than diamonds. The difference is that diamond markings are well-formed and defined, with four distinctive corners. Diamond-patterned snakes may appear as if they have an \"\"x\"\"-shaped criss-cross pattern down their back where the outlines of the diamonds intersect. The pattern on blotched or reticulated snakes that looks similar to diamonds is actually patches of color that have a rough diamond shape, but with rounded corners and slightly distorted edges. If the pattern is not sharply defined, it is not a diamond marking. Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The western diamondback is one of the most well-known species of rattlesnake."

The yellow tail tip is used as a lure for frogs, lizards and other prey items. This brightly colored tail tip fades to black as the snake ages. The color of cottonmouths is a yellowish olive to black with about 13 black crossbands that are wide on the sides and narrow as they approach the backbone. Some of the crossbands may be broken, not meeting at the backbone. The outer edges of the bands are usually black. Crossbands get darker as they approach the tail. Older adults may be a uniformed dark color, usually black, without a discernable pattern."

"text": "Science & Mathematics Zoology How dangerous is the venom of a water moccasin? I had a close encounter with one today. I kept my distance and did not get bit, but wondered how bad is it if you get bitten by one? Follow 10 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The cottonmouth or water moccasin is capable of killing a person. Usually, though, if that individual goes to the hospital and gets the right treatment, they recover with no issue. Moccasins tend to be large, heavy-bodied snakes that have a strong bite so they have a bigger chance of getting a hit and injecting venom. But they're also shy, like almost all snakes, so bites are rare. Most of the people who get bit by venomous snakes receive the bite when trying to kill or otherwise harm the snake. It's also important to make sure it was actually a cottonmouth. There are many species of snakes that live in and around water and many have nondescript colors and patterns, so harmless snakes are often mistaken for water moccasins."

"text": "Hunting, life-cycle, diet and dimorphism By Anders Nielsen, Ph.d. Water snakes ( Nerodia spp.) belong to a family of non-venomous colubrid snakes found in North America. In the southeastern USA, water snakes are among the most abundant and most often encountered reptiles. Although they are not venomous, they will defend themselves and bite if threatened, and water snakes are known to be aggressive. Water snakes can climb, and they are often found resting on branches above the water. When disturbed, they will drop into the water—sometimes into boats passing by. Diet Water snakes commonly forage in the water's edge looking for small fish—preferably the slow moving fish (Linzey & Clifford, 2002) 1 —and other animals in the shallow water. According to a study (Mushinsky et al. 1982) 2 there is a shift in prey choice towards frogs and other larger animals when the snakes reach a length of about 1.5 feet."

The copperhead actually has three different subspecies throughout North America. These subspecies are all quite similar, and all venomous. The copperhead snake is also the most common snakebite in North America among the dangerous snakes. This fascinating reptile is not the evil serpent people think. How Dangerous is The Copperhead The copperhead has venom that is roughly half the toxicity of a rattlesnake . Additionally, the copperhead also has relatively small fangs and delivers a much smaller amount of venom. Because of these factors, the copperhead often is a much less serious snake bite than that of the cottonmouth or rattlesnake. Still, as with any snake bite, it is considered a medical emergency and can be extremely dangerous. The copperhead is not a ready biter, but will bite if it feels threatened."

"text": "Water Moccasin Snake Which name is correct, water moccasin snake or cottonmouth? Well, the name “ water moccasin snake ” is more or less a generic term used by rural folks referring to any dark colored snake near the water. The name “Cottonmouth” is the correct name accepted by herpetology. For the sake of the rural folks. Habitat: One thing common among most venomous snakes is that they don’t enjoy the presence of people. With that, most venomous snakes tend to seek out places that have the least amount of human contact as possible. Well, this snake is no different, their optimal habitat consists of marsh wet lands and other calm slow moving streams, cypress swamps, ponds and lakes. For the most part they stick to natural fixed bodies of water with thick vegetation that provides an abundant source of food. When I was a young man living in Fort Myers, Florida I observed a group of water moccasin snakes gathered around a small pond that was all but dried up, preying on the tad poles and small fish trapped inside. Although, they will venture from water on occasion, when they do, they still seem to prefer the low land type habitat that retains a lot of moisture, opposed to the drier open grasslands or plains."

This summer Karen has fished a lot there so the first thing we did was to go see if the rising river had flooded her favorite fishing hole. The water was indeed over many of the refuge's roads and her fishing spot was flooded. We had to turn around at a spot where a thick-bodied, blackish snake was sprawled out sunning himself. That's him above. That's a venomous Cottonmouth or Water Moccasin, AGKISTRODON PISCIVORUS, common in swamps around here. The species is found throughout most of the US Southeast. Our snake was about 2-½ feet long and didn't seem at all concerned when I approached. The thick, black body, the head much wider than the slender neck, and the black mark behind the eye are about all you need to ID one of our Cottonmouths at a distance. Up close you also see a pit between the eye and nostril, which is a heat-sensing organ enabling the snake to locate prey in the dark, plus the eye's pupil is a vertical slit, like a cat's eye, instead of round."

Post a comment!Create an account [–] [deleted] 65 points 4 years ago From Wikipedia: In 1964, Tex Schramm started the tradition of the Cowboys wearing their white jersey at home, contrary to an unofficial rule that teams should wear colored jerseys at home. Schramm did this because he wanted fans to see a variety of opponents' colors at home games. Since then, a number of other teams have worn their white uniforms at home, including the Washington Redskins and Miami Dolphins. Throughout the years, the Cowboys' blue jersey has been popularly viewed to be \"\"jinxed\"\" because the team often seemed to lose when they wore them. This curse purportedly became popular after the team lost Super Bowl V, when they were forced to wear their colored jersey because they were the designated home team. However, the roots of the curse likely date back earlier to the end of the 1968 season when the blue-shirted Cowboys were upset badly by the Cleveland Browns in the divisional playoffs. That turned out to be Don Meredith's final game as a Cowboy. Dallas's lone victory in a conference championship or Super Bowl wearing the blue jerseys was in the 1978 NFC Championship game against the Los Angeles Rams. TL;DR Dallas started wearing white at home in the '60's as marketing, turned into superstition.permalink embed save [–] Browns MUSinfonian 17 points 4 years ago You're welcome, /r/NFL.permalink embed save parent [–] revens 0 points 4 years ago For cowboys jersey ,check this www.weiketrade.hk , your best choice!permalink embed save parent [–] Jets Co Ma Bla CK 31 points 4 years ago Home team dictates what uniform they choose to wear and the away team has to comply.permalink embed save [–] prickwhistle 4 points 4 years ago Do you have a source on this?"

It's generally in poor taste to wear a straw hat in the winter but that's about the only etiquette to wearing a hat. There's nothing like the Rockies in the springtime... Nothing like the freedom in the air... And there ain't nothing better than draggin calves to the fire and there's nothing like the smell of burning hair. -Brenn Hillkevinshorses is offline Quote Quick Replypost #3 of 39Old 11-10-2011, 11:02 PM Thread Starter Sarah Ann Banned User Horses Join Date: Oct 2011Location: Maine, USAPosts: 890 • Horses: 6My DH seems to be under the impression that a black cowboy hat is an honorable thing, and needs to be earned."

Cowboys portrayed in western art. The Herd Quitter by C. M. Russell A cowboy is an animal herder who tends cattle on ranches in North America, traditionally on horseback, and often performs a multitude of other ranch-related tasks. The historic American cowboy of the late 19th century arose from the vaquero traditions of northern Mexico and became a figure of special significance and legend. [ 1] A subtype, called a wrangler, specifically tends the horses used to work cattle. In addition to ranch work, some cowboys work for or participate in rodeos. Cowgirls, first defined as such in the late 19th century, had a less-well documented historical role, but in the modern world have established the ability to work at virtually identical tasks and obtained considerable respect for their achievements. [ 2] There are also cattle handlers in many other parts of the world, particularly South America and Australia, who perform work similar to the cowboy in their respective nations."

Either way according to Tom, he was born 100 years too late for his liking. Admittedly, his rodeo career preceded his mountain man lifestyle. “ My father, Chike Oar, worked for a Wild West show in Illinois called 105 Ranch Rodeo. He bulldogged and helped with the rodeo company. He took care of the livestock, was a pick-up man and did a little bull fighting,” said Tom. “He taught my brother, Jack and I to trick ride. We traveled all over the mid-west from Michigan to Missouri. I trick rode until I was 15 and my dad and brother quit the show. But I stayed with it, I had known since I was 3-years-old that I wanted to be a bull rider."

I won’t lie, I’m a fan of American Pickers and I always get a kick out of watching Mike and Frank and the people they meet. Heck, even Pawn Stars (while getting somewhat more annoying with each new episode) I don’t mind watching. American Restoration isn’t the greatest, but it’s still something to watch. Then there was How the States Got Their Shapes (which never really did what the title said), Around the World in 80 Ways, that taxidermy show, and Larry the Cable Guy’s show (which I actually thought was a surprisingly entertaining show). Sure, not all of these shows were great, but they at least showed a little bit of effort (though, I’m still confused why they ever thought that farming show with the wheat collectors would be good, and for the life of me I don’t understand how the trucking shows and Swamp People have a viewer base, but so be it). However, now they have given up. There’s that upcoming show Picked Off, which is basically American Pickers the reality game show."

Cusic is a music historian and professor of music business at Belmont University in Nashville. His book profiles artists who have embraced and promoted ideas about cowboys and the American West, including performers of western music, which he identifies as an offshoot of country music. Most of the profiles – from Gene Autry to George Strait – were first published in the magazine The Western Way, for which Cusic is editor. I talked with Cusic about how performers have fashioned their cowboy look and why Americans are still drawn to this image. From the late 1940s through the 1960s there was a musical genre called “country and western,” but today there are two different camps – country music and western music. This book focuses more on the later. How do you define western music? What is its relationship to country music? Musically [the two] are basically the same thing."

Estimating cattle age by their teeth involves noting how many incisor teeth there are, what type of teeth they are (\"\"baby\"\" or \"\"milk\"\" teeth, or permanent teeth), their degree of wear, and overall appearance. This article will offer an introduction to the basics of how age is estimated in cattle two years of age and older. Below: A three-year old cow. The green dots indicate the second pair of permanent incisors. Becoming good at aging cattle by their teeth requires an understanding of the guidelines about how their teeth should look at a given age, as well as extensive practice examining the teeth in cattle of a known age. Learning to age cattle by their teeth strictly by looking at photographs probably isn't possible, but it can be a fun introduction to the basics. Before we begin, there are several things to point out: In the text and photos of this article, we use the term \"\"cow\"\" loosely. For the purpose of this article, \"\"cow\"\" can refer to a cow, bull, steer, or heifer. Cattle have molars on the upper and lower jaws, but have incisors on the lower jaw only."

This is because a CPA has met minimum education requirements, passed a rigorous four-part exam, and agreed to abide by a code of ethics. The CPA designation is the most highly-sought after and versatile credential for accountants, according to the 2013 Robert Half Report on Accounting and Finance. Public Accounting – What Can A CPA Do That Other Accountants Cannot? Public accounting encompasses a wide range of accounting, auditing, tax, and consulting tasks for corporations, small businesses, non-profit organizations, governments, and individuals. Any qualified public accountant can do most of these tasks; however, a CPA can do two things that an accountant without a CPA license cannot: Prepare audited or reviewed financial statements and file a report with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). All public companies must file audited financial statements with the SEC. Represent clients in front of the Internal Revenue Service. ( However, a non-CPA who is an attorney, enrolled agent, enrolled retirement plan agent, or enrolled actuary can also represent clients. )"

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

My branch of electrical engineering is in declining demand, so when my company has layoffs this area tends to be hit somewhat hard. And there aren't a heck of a lot of openings out there in my field for those that get laid off. I know I could learn a related branch but companies prefer to hire people who have resumes listing experience in the exact area they're being hired for. Plus age discrimination seems to be real in engineering; from people I know it just seems tough to get another job if you're let go after age 50.

"text": "Business & Finance Careers & Employment Other - Careers & Employment How long does it take to become a CPA? After an MBA and 4 years as a staff accountant with general accounting duties is CPA the right way to go? And also, what is the typical time frame to become a CPA working full time. I am thinking of enrolling in the live in class Becker CPA review. Any good suggestion is appreciated1 following Answers Best Answer: That depends on which route you want to take in the accounting field. Becoming a CPA does open some doors, specifically in the public accounting arena. But if you do not plan to work in public accounting, either for an established firm or in your own practice, your CPA license may not be worth the time and effort it takes to study and sit for the exam. I have an BBA in Accounting and an MBA in Business Administration. I actually owned and operated my own bookkeeping and tax service for 12 years without a CPA license. The only restriction I had was I could not perform audits, which I had no desire to do anyway."

Question from the candidate: How can I obtain information about the types of topics that are covered on each of these four parts of the CPA Exam? Joe: Official information about the coverage can be found by going to www.cpa-exam.org. Under CPA Announcements, a list of topics will appear including one titled CSOs/SSOs . These Content Specification Outlines provide a very general idea of the coverage although it is not as detailed as you might like. Do note that these lists of topics will likely change a bit over the next few years as the exam continues to evolve. One way to think about the coverage is to connect it to the coverage you saw in your college courses. Not surprisingly, Auditing and Attestation covers the material usually found in Auditing classes. The topics in Financial Accounting and Reporting come from Intermediate Accounting, Advanced Accounting, and Governmental and Not-for-Profit Accounting. Regulation is divided between taxation (50-70 percent) and business law and ethics (35-50 percent)."

CPA Dennis Walsh tells us differently: Executive Director Blair Benson of the Mental Health Association in Greensboro, North Carolina, was hoping her audit costs wouldn't go up much. With a budget of $340,000, there isn't a lot to spare. But although she had expected an increase, she was stunned when her auditor said he would be increasing his fee by 40%. \"\" An increase like this is something you just can't build into your budget,\"\" said Benson. Audits are getting more expensive -- have you noticed? A survey of 160 community-based nonprofits in Guilford County, North Carolina, showed recent average audit fee increases of 9%, and noted that audit costs remain a significant burden to organizations. Under the new risk-based audit standards ( Statements on Auditing Standards (SAS) Nos. 104-111 ), effective since 2007, your auditors must obtain a deeper understanding of your organization, its environment, and your internal control systems. \"\" The burden for documentation, combined with the additional scrutiny by the AICPA . . ."

It tests whether the mean difference in the pairs is different from 0. When to use it Use the paired t –test when there is one measurement variable and two nominal variables. One of the nominal variables has only two values, so that you have multiple pairs of observations. The most common design is that one nominal variable represents individual organisms, while the other is \"\"before\"\" and \"\"after\"\" some treatment. Sometimes the pairs are spatial rather than temporal, such as left vs. right, injured limb vs. uninjured limb, etc. You can use the paired t –test for other pairs of observations; for example, you might sample an ecological measurement variable above and below a source of pollution in several streams. As an example, volunteers count the number of breeding horseshoe crabs on beaches on Delaware Bay every year; here are data from 2011 and 2012. The measurement variable is number of horseshoe crabs, one nominal variable is 2011 vs. 2012, and the other nominal variable is the name of the beach. Each beach has one pair of observations of the measurement variable, one from 2011 and one from 2012."

"text": "How to Cook and Clean Live Crab at Home December 4th 2012 Facebook Twitter Pinterest The day after Thanksgiving, Matt and I drove out to Half Moon Bay to get in on the season’s first crabs, buying them directly from the fishermen. For about six glorious weeks, the Bay Area enjoys a bounty of Dungeness Crab, and we just can’t get enough. During this time, you can find crabs at virtually every grocery store, and many local markets, but there’s something special about walking down the dock and having a fisherman pull out his catch with a gloved hand, weigh it, and slip it into a plastic bag for you to enjoy on the spot or take home. When I say ‘enjoy on the spot,’ I mean it. Just a few steps away from the boats, a local restaurant will steam your crab for you and give you all the fixins (the butter, the lemon slices, and some hot sauce) to enjoy your crab right then and there. This is how we usually do our crab outings. We bring our own wine and/or beer, and breathe in the sea air as we drown our crab meat in butter using our hands. This year, we decided bring our cooler, break out our giant stock pot, and make some fixins of our own at home. The entire 30 minute ride home, I was worried that our crabs would not survive the trip, but lo and behold, when we pulled them out of the cooler, they were alive and well and looking angry (or maybe that was just my imagination running wild). We slipped them into the freezer to numb them (this is the most humane way of killing — er — cooking crab)."

"text": "© roc8jas / Getty Images Chances are your life has benefitted from these ancient creatures. Adam Campbell-Schmitt April 14, 2017You know horseshoe crabs, they’re the prehistoric arthropods that have been around since before the dinosaurs and yet still walk among us. That is, if you’re walking on the seafloor. They’ve also served as inspiration for Hollywood creature designers, most famously for the face-hugger critters in the Alien movies. They’re not really meaty, but you can eat their roe, which apparently tastes like briny rubber. Okay, so we don’t have much use for these buggers. Or do we? As it turns out, horseshoe crabs have probably saved your life. To be more accurate, horseshoe crab blood has likely prevented you from being on the receiving end of harmful bacteria like E. coli due to a unique property integral in keeping these creatures around for about 450 million years. Horseshoe crabs have blue blood, not because they were born into wealthy families, but because it is copper-based (as opposed to iron-based like most mammals and fish) meaning when it oxidizes, horseshoe crab blood, like the Statue of Liberty, turns blue."

They will often climb under the sand (which we recommend since it is their natural environment) or sometimes a piece of wood. They like a moist environment for this. They are protecting themselves from predators when they become soft. They will completely loose their outer shell and shed it and grow a new skin which hardens to a shell.

It is convenient to divide crustaceans into two groups, the entomostracans and the malacostraceans.

So what is the big deal? Well, it’s basically a party in the middle of the sea! On any given summer day, you will find hundreds of boats and folks hanging out together. The translucent waters at Crab Island instinctively draw everyone’s eyes away from the road as they cross the bridge from Okaloosa Island into Destin. At Crab Island you can anchor down, walk over and buy a few drinks and hot dogs from the restaurant barge, or find a local selling ice cream meandering through the crowd.

You should add this to your collection of hermit crab knowledge, and not take this as any authority care sheet. Land hermit crabs can live for 30+ years! But only if they are cared for properly. The Habitat Space: For 2-3 small hermit crabs, a ten gallon glass aquarium is required as a minimum because more space is important for the crabs food/water/decor, and not just the crabs themselves. For 3 or more crabs, you will need a larger aquarium. Keep in mind that crabs will grow! As far as space goes, the bigger, the better! If you can afford a larger tank, get it. Crabs love to roam, and do best when they can get a lot of exercise in their tank."

"text": "Horseshoe crabs aren’t really “living fossils”There are four species of horseshoe crabs in the world, with the most familiar to Americans being Limulus polyphemus, the Atlantic horseshoe crab. Here’s a group of them mating: They are arthopods, but not “true” crabs, which are in the subphylum Crustacea. Horseshoe crabs are in a different subphylum, the Chelicerata, more closely related to spiders and scorpions than to the crabs we know. A good website on the group describes its morphology, behavior, and medical uses (yes, they’re useful in making drugs; see here ). Plus they’re really cute. Here’s a description of the legs of modern animals: The horseshoe crab has 6 pairs of appendages on the posterior side of the prosoma. Five pairs of walking legs or pedipalps enable the horseshoe crab to easily move along benthic sediments. Each has a small claw at the tip except the last pair. The last pair of legs has a leaflike structure at the terminal end that is used for pushing and clearing away sediments as the crab burrows into marine bottom. The base of each leg is covered with inward pointing spines called gnathobases that move food towards the mouth located between the legs."

We like to walk & sometimes enjoy a late supper, etc. I have made reservations in September for the Radisson Hotel, 200 Stuart Street. Here's some possible scenarios, 1) Walk from the hotel down Tremont street to the Faneuil Hall area and returning to the hotel after a late supper. 2) Walk from hotel to the Copley Square area, returning in the evening. 3) How about the waterfront area just across the Seaport Avenue Bridge into South Boston. 4) Lastly, the area north of Stuart Street such as Charles Street between the Public Park and Boston Common, Beacon Street, and up & down Arlington Street. I was looking for casual restaurants for supper and maybe a night cap before retiring for the evening and started coming across the safety issue on several sites. We realize a person must be always alert to their surroundings, particularly, in large cities."

Coenobita clypeatus. It is native to the Caribbean and has many common names, such as purple pincher (abbreviated to PP), land hermit crab, tree crab, soldier crab, and Caribbean crab. The second species is Coenobita compressus, whose common names are Ecuadorian Crab, E-Crab, E or the affectionate nickname, \"\"Eccie.\"\" It is highly likely that if you live in the United States, you have one or both of these two species of crabs. However, if you purchased your hermit crab from a mall kiosk or a Petco, there is a chance that you could have what is called an \"\"exotic breed\"\" of hermit crab.

There are some things you should avoid, such as citrus fruits like lemons, limes, oranges, pineapple, etc. Some things you can provide are romaine lettuce, celery, brocolli, cauliflower, zucchini, bananas, flowers, and other leafy greens. Aside from veggies you can also give them frozen foods such as bloodworms, shrimp, and tubifex worms. A variety of fish flake foods are good. I like the hermit crab fruit and flower mix as the staple diet. Hope this helps. :)"

Just the Basics To live comfortably in captivity, hermit crabs require the following: Temperature no lower than 75°F. Consistent low temperatures can kill a hermit crab. Don't allow them to bake in a window, either. If they get too hot they will die, overheating causes irreversible damage and a slow, painful death. Signs of overheating are a musty smell and discharge of brown liquid;A constant humidity level of at LEAST 70% humidity. Try to remember that you want the inside of your crabitat to have a moist, \"\"tropical\"\" feel to it;Substrate deep enough that the crabs can bury but not so deep that it negates the effects of your under-tank heater. If you are having trouble keeping your crabitat warm, try moving some substrate from over the heater."

A typical view of horseshoe crabs nesting on a Florida Beach The American horseshoe crab is a common sight on Florida's beaches. Many people have seen horseshoe crabs but do not realize they are looking at one of the oldest animals on the planet. Often called \"\"living fossils,\"\" horseshoe crab ancestors can traced back through the geologic record to around 445 million years ago, 200 million years before dinosaurs existed. Horseshoe crabs are actually not true crabs at all, being more closely related to arachnids (a group that includes spiders and scorpions) than to crustaceans (a group that includes true crabs, lobsters, and shrimp). Four species of horseshoe crabs exist today. Only one species, Limulus polyphemus, is found in North America along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts from Maine to Mexico. The other three species are found in Southeast Asia. A fossilized horseshoe crab Despite inhabiting the planet for so long, horseshoe crab anatomy has changed very little over time because it has proven successful for the animal's survival. Horseshoe crabs have a tank-like stucture consisting of a front shell called the prosoma, a back shell called the opisthosoma, and a spike-like tail called a telson."

Not crayfish, New Zealand green lipped mussels, and boutique tank raised Coho salmon, but tilapia, cod, and crab. They may not be ideal or as sexy as some of the species from last week, but they are common. So – what’s common? To make this as objective and universal as possible, I’ll examine the ten most common seafoods consumed by Americans. As of 2009, they were, from most eaten to least eaten: shrimp, canned tuna, salmon, pollock, tilapia, catfish, crab, cod, clams, and pangasius. Shrimp I’ll cover in depth next week, catfish and clams were handled last week, and I covered farmed versus wild salmon a couple years ago, but what about the others? Which are worth eating? Which should be avoided? Let’s take a look."

Several types of crabs are found along the ocean shores of North America that make a memorable dining experience. Dungeness The sweet flavor of freshly caught Dungeness crab, which gets its name from the town of Dungeness, Washington, makes it a popular food item in the Pacific Northwest. The crabs thrive in the cooler waters of the Pacific Ocean from San Francisco all the way north to Alaska. Dungeness crabs prefer a sandy or muddy habitat, often living close to the mouths of rivers that empty into the ocean. The crabs search for food on the ocean floor, eating just about anything that has meat on it, including fish, other crabs, worms, squids and starfish. They also eat snails, the eggs from fish and crabs and will even eat their own species. Blue Crabs The blue crab lives in the Atlantic Ocean from New England all the way south to Florida. The crabs make a tasty summertime meal when served in their soft-shell form, with the whole crab fried and eaten, shell and all; the meat from the hard-shell also tastes delicious. Blue crabs reach maturity quickly and are full size within 12 to 18 months, a size they reach by feasting on fish, crustaceans, snails and dead animal matter along the ocean floor."

If you're feeding your hermit crab the same food all the time, he's likely to be a little tired of it. Sheldon would probably enjoy a little variety in his diet. Variety is Nice In their natural environment, hermit crabs dine on a variety of foods, including decaying wood, grasses, plants, fallen fruit and things washed on shore from the tide. They're not fussy and are usually open to trying just about anything that gets their attention. You can experiment with Sheldon and offer him a few things from your breakfast plate, such as some scrambled eggs, or try a piece of popcorn on movie night. Foods to Feed There will be some trial and error to learn what Sheldon likes, but most hermit crabs have a sweet tooth. The Hermit Crab Patch notes that baby food is popular, particularly fruit flavors such as fruit medley, apples and bananas, mango fruit, guava fruit, sweet corn casserole, sweet potatoes and apples and applesauce. If you want to avoid baby food and use fresh fruits and vegetables, try blueberries, mango, banana, pineapple, grapes, sweet potatoes, carrots, corn, spinach, apple and broccoli heads. Walnuts, peanut butter, fresh rose or sunflower petals, honey, oatmeal and wheat germ offer a nice change to fruits and vegetables."

Their ability to cling to rocks with suction-cup-like feet and their hard exoskeletons make them difficult to find and eat for most other creatures, but starfish do have several predators. Sharks, manta rays, Alaskan king crabs and even other starfish prey upon them. Sharks Only sharks that swim near the bottom of the sea eat starfish. Nurse sharks, horn sharks and Port Jackson sharks are all known to eat them. All of these sharks have strong enough jaws to crush the hard bony outer skeleton of the starfish and eat the flesh underneath. There's not much meat there, however, and most sharks prefer squid and other soft-bodied animals that are easier prey. Manta Rays Manta rays are large dark-brown or black sea creatures closely related to the shark. They don't have teeth, and must eat by sieving their food through their mouths. Manta rays primarily consume plankton but will eat whatever they encounter, including starfish."

They also eat some small fish in the wild, along with crayfish, barnacles, mussels, prawns and shrimp. Crabs are opportunists. They will eat what they find, including partially decomposed items."

"text": "\"Reader Approved How to Care for Land Hermit Crabs You might have just gotten a land hermit crab, or maybe you have had the little guy for quite some time now. Either way, you want to freshen up on your hermit crab basics and make sure your beloved pet is safe and well. So these few steps will help you perfect your skills!Steps1 Select an enclosure. The best enclosure to use is a glass aquarium. Size is a very important factor when deciding how many hermit crabs you will keep. A good rule of thumb is - one inch per gallon. to determine how many inches your crabs are, measure across the shell opening. Remember, the habitat (or as many people call \"\"crabitat\"\" or simply \"\"the tat\"\") needs to be able to hold three dishes, climbing toys, shelters, shells, and space for the crabs to walk around. You don't want the tank to be crowded, but you don't want it to be too open, either. A ten-gallon tank usually does nicely for a maximum of six small hermit crabs."

Just throw them in the pot of boiling water. If they are snow crabs, for about 8 minutes, about 15 for King. But watch carefully so you don't overcook them. It's hard to say without seeing the size. I always add a few spoons of lemon juice to the water to remove any fishy type of smell and it makes the crab taste extra fresh. If you don't have any, vinegar will do in a pinch though not as well.

In the future, you may find it helpful to know that one way you could potentially calculate how many \"\"legs\"\" or how much crab it would take to get to the full recommended portion size of 7 ounces is to consider that data shows that snow, queen and blue crabs tend to yield approximately 17% meat; dungress and king crab have a higher meat yield at 25% (this is the best estimate possible using extrapolated data is based on total crab weight).. To go with the average of 17% meat yield, 1.5 pounds of crab legs is approximately 4 ounces of actual snow crab meat.. 2.5 pounds of snow crab would put you just shy of 7 oz. ( 6.8 oz.).. Andrea.

Learn about the membrane structures called cristae and how they enhance the membrane's ability to function. What Are Mitochondrial Cristae? Mitochondrial cristae are folds of the mitochondrial inner membrane that provide an increase in the surface area. This allows a greater space for processes that happen across this membrane. The electron transport chain and chemiosmosis are the processes which help produce ATP in the final steps of cellular respiration. The following picture is the mitochondrion, showing the inner membrane, including the cristae: Function of Mitochondrial Cristae Before we can explain the functioning of the crista (plural = cristae), we need to revisit what a mitochondrion does. The mitochondrion is the cellular organelle where cellular respiration takes place. Cellular respiration is the process that creates chemical energy in the form of ATP from simple food molecules. These food molecules, particularly glucose, are first broken down in the cytosol outside the mitochondrion during glycolysis."

"text": "\"Eukaryotic Cell: Structure and Function Introduction to eukaryotic cells By definition, eukaryotic cells are cells that contain a membrane-bound nucleus, a structural feature that is not present in bacterial or archaeal cells. In addition to the nucleus, eukaryotic cells are characterized by numerous membrane-bound organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, chloroplasts, mitochondria, and others. In previous sections, we began to consider the Design Challenge of making cells larger than a small bacterium — more precisely, growing cells to sizes at which, in the eyes of natural selection, relying on diffusion of substances for transport through a highly viscous cytosol comes with inherent functional trade-offs that offset most selective benefits of getting larger. In the lectures and readings on bacterial cell structure, we discovered some morphological features of large bacteria that allow them to effectively overcome diffusion-limited size barriers (e.g., filling the cytoplasm with a large storage vacuole maintains a small volume for metabolic activity that remains compatible with diffusion-driven transport). As we transition our focus to eukaryotic cells, we want you to approach the study by constantly returning to the Design Challenge. We will cover a large number of subcellular structures that are unique to eukaryotes, and you will certainly be expected to know the names of these structures or organelles, to associate them with one or more \"\"functions\"\", and to identify them on a canonical cartoon representation of a eukaryotic cell. This memorization exercise is necessary but not sufficient. We will also ask you to start thinking a bit deeper about some of the functional and evolutionary costs and benefits (trade-offs) of both evolving eukaryotic cells and various eukaryotic organelles, as well as how a eukaryotic cell might coordinate the functions of different organelles. Your instructors will, of course, propose some functional hypotheses for you to consider that address these broader points. Our hypotheses may sometimes come in the form of statements like, \"\"Thing A exists because of rationale B.\"\" To be completely honest, however, in many cases, we don't actually know all of the selective pressures that led to the creation or maintenance of certain cellular structures, and the likelihood that one explanation will fit all cases is slim in biology."

"text": "The Size, Shape and Structural Organization Of Mitochondria Membrane Article Shared by ADVERTISEMENTS: The size, shape, and structural organization of mitochondria, as well as the number of these organelles per cell and their intracellular location, vary considerably depending on the organism, tissue, and physiological state of the cell examined. Some cells, usually unicellular organisms, contain a single mitochondrion. Figure 16-3 contains a photomicrograph of the single mitochondrion in the motile swarm spore of Blastocladiella emersonia, a fungus, and a model of the single mitochondrion of Chlorella fusca, an alga. ADVERTISEMENTS: At the other extreme are cells such as Chaos chaos, an amoeba, which contains several hundred thousand mitochondria. Cells of higher animals also contain various numbers of mitochondria. Sperm cells have fewer than 100 mitochondria. Kidney cells generally contain less that 1000 and liver cells can contain several thousand. Prokaryotic cells such as bacteria and blue-green algae do not contain mitochondria. The functions associated with mitochondria are carried out in the cytosol or are associated with the plasma membrane. The distribution of the mitochondria in the cell can change with time."

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Biology What are three unique characteristics of Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells? Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The three characteristics are: + size + structure + function Prokaryotic cells are small, primitive, basic and unicellular. They do not contain any membrane-bound organelles (such as chloroplasts, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, etc) and do not have a distinct nucleus (ie: no nuclear membrane - so the DNA is floating around in the cytoplasm). When DNA is floating around in the cytoplasm, it is called a nucleoid. Prokaryotic cells also contain DNA molecules called plasmids, which are transferred between prokaryotes during a process known as conjugation. The functions for prokaryotes are simple and not complex, as they divide and multiply by binary fission only. Prokaryotes are often called autotrophs because they get their energy from the environment (ie: photosynthesis). Don't forget, prokaryotes also have a cell wall made from peptidoglycan. Eukaryotic cells are large, advanced and multicellular. They do contain membrane-bound organelles (plants contain a large vacuole and chloroplasts) and do have a distinct nucleus (the nucleus is surrounded by a nuclear membrane and the DNA is therefore cut off from the cytoplasm)."

Theory Mitochondria Mitochondria are rod-shaped structures ranging from 2 to 8 μm in length. They are found throughout the cytoplasm and may account for up to 20% of the cell's volume. The number of mitochondria in a cell depends upon the metabolic requirements of that cell, and may range from a single large mitochondrion to thousands of the organelles. Mitochondria are considered as the \"\"power house of the cell\"\" because It produces Adenosine Tri Phosphate (ATP), the energy currency by extracting energy from nutrient molecules. Number of enzymes and proteins present in the mitochondria, which helps in processing fats and carbohydrates obtained from food. ATP powers the cell's metabolic activities. This process is called aerobic respiration, that is the reason for animals breathing oxygen. The cells in the higher animals obtain energy from anaerobic respiration (in the absence of oxygen), so it does exist without mitochondria. The discovery of mitochondria came in 1886 when Richard Altman, a cytologist, identified the organelles by dye technique, and dubbed them as \"\"bioblasts\"\"."

Such cell death can be caused by disruptions in the process of either fusion or fission.

What is the problem? Imagine if there were a way to turn on the description (the special feature to narrate the visual elements of a show for people who are blind or visually impaired) on your favorite shows! Imagine being able to check your television to find out what is on right now, or up next, the name of the show, the channel the show is on, or the channel the TV is tuned to. ( If you are wondering what \"\"description\"\" could be, check out this overview of audio description . ) Back in the olden days, I bought a device at Radio Shack that had, among other features, a button that would let me switch to SAP audio (the special \"\"channel\"\" that contains description or alternate language audio). So, I would change TV channels on my remote like anybody else, but the audio of the TV would go through this device and, if there was description, or Spanish (or Chinese or Russian...) on that channel, that would be the audio I would hear. Life was perfect. Well, everybody didn't have that option even then, and now, most of us have to use the onscreen menus on our television, via the cable system, to turn on description. We could also use those menus to select a show, find out what is on, record a show for later, but we can't see those pesky menus."

"text": "ATP synthesis in mitochondria In order to understand the mechanism by which the energy released during respiration is conserved as ATP, it is necessary to appreciate the structural features of mitochondria. These are organelles in animal and plant cells in which oxidative phosphorylation takes place. There are many mitochondria in animal tissues—for example, in heart and skeletal muscle, which require large amounts of energy for mechanical work, and in the pancreas, where there is biosynthesis, and in the kidney, where the process of excretion begins. Mitochondria have an outer membrane, which allows the passage of most small molecules and ions, and a highly folded inner membrane ( crista ), which does not even allow the passage of small ions and so maintains a closed space within the cell. The electron-transferring molecules of the respiratory chain and the enzymes responsible for ATP synthesis are located in and on this inner membrane, while the space inside (matrix) contains the enzymes of the TCA cycle (reactions [34] to [46]). The enzyme systems primarily responsible for the release and subsequent oxidation of reducing equivalents are thus closely related, so that the reduced coenzymes formed during catabolism (NADH + H + and FADH 2) are available as substrates for respiration. The movement of most charged metabolites into the matrix space is mediated by special carrier proteins in the crista that catalyze exchange-diffusion (i.e., a one-for-one exchange). The oxidative phosphorylation systems of bacteria are similar in principle but show a greater diversity in the composition of their respiratory carriers. The mechanism of ATP synthesis appears to be as follows. During the transfer of hydrogen atoms from FMNH 2 or FADH 2 to oxygen, protons (H + ions) are pumped across the crista from the inside of the mitochondrion to the outside."

They also provide pain management and emergency services, such as airway management. The practice of anesthesia is a recognized specialty within the profession of nursing, and nurse anesthetists are essential to the health care workforce. The Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) administers anesthesia for all types of surgical cases, from the simplest to the most complex. CRNAs provide anesthesia in collaboration with surgeons, anesthesiologists and other qualified health care professionals and practice in every setting in which anesthesia is delivered, including traditional hospital surgical suites and obstetrical delivery rooms, ambulatory surgical centers, dentists' offices, pain management clinics, and more. They have long held an important role on the battlefield as well. An independently licensed health professional, the CRNA is of special importance in medically underserved areas. With CRNAs on staff, health care facilities can offer obstetrical, surgical, and trauma stabilization services when otherwise it would not be possible. In some states, CRNAs are the sole providers of anesthesia services in the majority of rural hospitals."

Anesthesiologists are physicians, while anesthetists are either certified registered nurse anesthetists – also called CRNAs – or anesthesiologist assistants, who are called AAs. Anesthesiologists Anesthesiologists are medical doctors. They must complete four years of undergraduate training, often in science. After college, they attend four years of medical school and then spend three to eight years in a residency program. Some also go on to fellowships -– specialty training programs that can last three years or more.

There are more entry-level CRNAs in the workforce over this last two years than previously. Entry-level wages average between $75,000 and $105,810. Much of the wage disparity involves the years of practice as a Registered Nurse in a critical care field and hospital environment where such practice was hands-on rather than book work. Technically, the nurse anesthetist is supposed to assist an Anesthesiologist by administering the anesthetic, monitor the progress of the patient during surgery adjusting the levels of anesthesia and oxygen and overseeing the post-surgical progress of the patient. Just as a side note, this is exactly the same thing that the Anesthesiologist does according to his/her job description except for the “assist” part.

"text": "Nurse Anesthetist Salary Information One of the most lucrative aspects to becoming a CRNA is the high earning potential. While there are many important factors to consider when choosing a career path, the potential future earnings in a chosen field often play a large role in influencing the decision. Choosing to become a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist is a big commitment of both time and finances. It is important to research all factors of a future career choice including working conditions, potential job-related stresses, what kind of schooling is needed, and what character traits you should possess. Once you have done your research, however, and decided that becoming a CRNA is the right career move for you, it is good to know that at the end of the journey all of your hard work will likely be rewarded with a competitive CRNA salary. The Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist salary statistics in this article are based on various data sources and are a compilation of the averages reported through research and data gathering. These salary figures should not be the sole means of calculating your potential future CRNA salary as this can vary widely from state to state and from facility to facility, but they do provide a good general overview of the earning potential of an average CRNA. CRNA Average Salary The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the projected median national salary for a CRNA in 2014-15 is $148,160. The mean annual nurse anesthetist salary as reported in May of 2013 was $157,690. CRNA starting salaries can vary widely, but tend to be closer to $100,000-$120,000."

"text": "How Much Does a Nurse Anesthetist Make | CRNA Salary Nurse Anesthetists, CRNAs , are specialists who provide anesthesia care for their patients before, during, and after their obstetrical and surgical procedures. When deciding upon a career path many people take the salary for a career into consideration. Salary may not be more important than the career path, but a lucrative salary can be very beneficial to a career. Nurses make some of the most generous salaries of all professions. Advance Practice Nurses such as Nurse Anesthetists are right at the top of the salary scale in the nursing profession. Nurse Anesthetist Overview As stated above, nurse anesthetists are specialists who provide anesthesia care for their patients before, during, and after their obstetrical and surgical procedures. They administer medications so that patients can remain pain-free or asleep during their procedures. The CRNA has the added responsibility of constantly monitoring the important functions of these patients’ bodies. CRNA provide care for life-saving and common medical treatments for more 26 million patients each year in the United States. CRNAs are more cost-efficient than Anesthesiologists are."

They are the only anesthesia providers in more than 70 percent of rural areas. Although each state determines the individual scope of practice for a CRNA, these specialized nurses usually administer anesthesia, manage pain in labor and delivery patients, and may also provide acute and chronic pain management. Education and Certification A CRNA must have a master’s degree in nurse anesthesia. Students must have a bachelor’s degree, current license as a registered nurse and at least one year of experience in an acute care setting such as a hospital to enter a CRNA program. Most CRNA programs last from two to three years. In addition to the educational program, the CRNA must pass a certification exam after graduation and be recertified every two years.

Even this criticism overlooks an interesting fact: Kaepernick’s defiant protest would have been totally illegal in Castro’s Cuba. The shirt Kaepernick wore commemorates a 1961 meeting between Castro and black activist Malcolm X. A few people, such as George Diaz of the Orlando Sentinel, have pointed out the irony of Kaepernick complaining about racial oppression while wearing a shirt featuring an oppressive dictator. Castro imprisoned thousands of political opponents over the course of his long reign, while driving hundreds of thousands of people to Florida as political or economic refugees. The irony is even deeper than that. Not only was Cuba under Castro a deeply unfree country, Castro’s regime also specifically banned the kind of complaint Kaepernick is making. Like America, Cuba is a racially diverse country, where Cubans of European heritage have been ascendant while Afro-Cubans have generally been poorer and more marginalized. Shortly after the Cuban Revolution, Castro’s government passed a handful of laws intended to curb racism in schooling and employment. The government also abolished the widespread legal segregation that had prevailed in Cuba before the revolution."

"text": "\"How to Choose Ballroom Dance Shoes Posted by Cheryl Cortez on Fri, Apr 6, 2012 @ 20:04 PMTweet What is the difference between ballroom dance shoes and regular shoes? The biggest difference is the soles. Ballroom shoes have a thin, suede sole. This allows the shoes to glide on the dance floor, with just the right amount of grip. Ballroom shoes are also very flexible, allowing the movement necessary to show off your dance techniques. In competition, women should wear tan or flesh-colored shoes, to extend the look of the leg, and not call too much attention to the feet. What are the types of ballroom dance shoes? The three basic types are Latin, Standard (also called \"\"Court\"\" or \"\"Modern\"\"), and Practice shoes. Shoes should be selected not only for appearance, but for comfort, support, performance, and protection. Some women prefer the closed-toe shoes, because they offer some protection against being stepped on, and they shield your toenails from your partner's shoes."

The Sony hack revealed it Published on: Blog Dec302014Tweet It’s not as if Mark Cuban needs a handout One thing the Sony hack has given us—in addition to the words “James Franco” dripping derisively from a sitting president’s mouth during a press conference—was some more insight into how much the Sharks are paid for each episode of ABC’s Shark Tank. Leaked emails between Mark Cuban and the production team reveal that for Season 5, he was offered $30,000 per show with gradual pay increases over the next few years: $31,200 for season 6, and $32,488 for season 7. At least, that was the offer. “No chance,” Cuban wrote to those who were in on the negotiations. “ This is beyond an insult and it shows no one cares about the investments i [sic] have made or the entrepreneurs. ”“You may want to start cutting me out of the promos,” said Cuban—ever the Shark. Sure enough, he got his way, and he stuck around for the fifth (his fourth) season with the show. The show is now in Season 6. We don’t know how much he’s earning, but we can be sure it’s considerably more than $31,200."

Since the 20th century, almost all cigars are made up of three distinct components: the filler, the binder leaf which holds the filler together, and a wrapper leaf. Often the cigar will have band printed with the cigar manufacturer's logo. Cigar tobacco is grown in significant quantities primarily in Central America and the islands of the Caribbean, including Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, Ecuador, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Panama, and Puerto Rico; it is also produced in the Eastern United States, the Mediterranean countries of Italy and Spain (in the Canary Islands ), and in Indonesia and the Philippines of Southeast Asia.

"text": "\"Home Buying Guides Jewelry & Watches Fashion Jewelry Anklets Ankle Bracelet Buying Guidee Bay 2 Likes Like March 3, 2016A special piece of jewelry can accent a formal outfit or add a fun and playful aspect to a casual ensemble. One unique piece of jewelry that has become very popular in recent years is the ankle bracelet. Available in a wide range of styles, gemstones, metals, and other materials, ankle bracelets offer anybody the chance to show off their own personal style. What Is an Ankle Bracelet? Traditionally worn in India by unmarried women, ankle bracelets are now worn around the world by every age group and marital status. Also called an anklet, an ankle bracelet is simply worn around the ankle instead of the wrist. They were originally designed to bring attention to the feet, ankles, and lower legs. Today, anklets still serve as a unique way to accent an uncommon area of the body, the feet. Ankle bracelets are often worn during the summer season with sandals, flip flops, and other strappy shoes. They can be worn on either ankle."

We suggest marking the occasion as a reminder to take a deep breath and enjoy these last couple weeks of August before the end of the unofficial summer season. With all the travel and getaways and barbecues and beach days, sometimes summer seems to pass by in the blink of an eye as the cooler days of autumn sneak up on us. When it comes to footwear, relaxation and comfort go hand in hand and Skechers Relaxed Fit styles offer a roomier toe box and a soft air-cooled memory foam insole to ensure you’re feeling great at every step so you can maintain that late-season zen. The men’s Madolly lace-up sneaker is perfect for a trek out the beach cruiser away from the crowds. When it’s just you and the path ahead, it’s easy to find your zone and let your mind let go. Sometimes chillaxing with a friend with no plans in the future is exactly what the doctor ordered. Coordinating colors of your comfortable knitted slip-ons is optional, but as you can see the men’s Expected – Gomel in navy and the women’s Breathe Easy – Lassie in blue could be a perfect ice breaker as you and a date drift off into a long laugh-filled conversation about your favorite episodes of Always Sunny. It’ll be a silly conversation but what makes it amazing is that you have nowhere else to be. In the end, all that matters is locking in the time to do whatever sets your mind at ease."

In college, she began acting, studying underneath acting coach Ivana Chubbuck. This led to her desire to appear in feature films. Though taking many smaller roles in movies, she was little known until playing the girlfriend of Denzel Washington 's character in Training Day (2001). Since then, she has been featured in a wider range of roles, from comedic to dramatic. These gave her the ability to work with many highly regarded directors, such as Robert Rodriguez ( Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003)), Carl Franklin ( Out of Time (2003)), John Singleton ( 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003)), Antoine Fuqua ( Training Day (2001)) and the Farrelly Bros. ( Stuck on You (2003)). Eva has co-starred in an independent film, The Wendell Baker Story (2005) with Owen Wilson, Luke Wilson and Will Ferrell, with Luke Wilson directing. Before that, her biggest movie was Hitch (2005), a romantic comedy that had her playing opposite Will Smith. Along with acting, Eva is employed by Revlon Cosmetics as an international spokeswoman.

Although this is long article it is probably one of the shortest on the topic of the magazine history because I have not mentioned many magazines that left their significant mark in the publishing industry. Le Mercure Galant was one of the first printed publications. Household Words was an English weekly magazine published in the 1850s by Charles Dickens. Gentleman’s Magazine is the first publication that was named magazine. Beginnings of print magazines First publication, which could be called a magazine, was the German Erbauliche Monaths Unterredungen, released in the year 1663. It was a literary and philosophical edition and after it was launched several periodicals with very similar topics were published, and were intended for an intellectual audience. Thematic scope was very narrow, and it was mainly written by one author. A publication similar to today’s magazines (various themes and several authors) appeared in the year 1672, when French author Jean Donneau de Vize created Le Mercure Galant. It combines topics from court events, theater and literature, and this magazine concept was copied throughout Europe."

"text": "\"Home Buying Guides Jewelry & Watches Other Jewelry & Watches How to Buy the Right Jewelry When You Have a Metal Allergye Bay 32 Likes Like March 3, 2016For those who have metal allergies, finding jewelry that does not irritate the skin can be a challenge. To decrease costs of production, many jewelry manufacturers add metal alloys that cause reactions in sensitive skin. Knowing which materials to avoid and which metals are hypoallergenic can help allergy sufferers choose attractive jewelry and accessories that will not cause problems. What Are Metal Allergies? People who are allergic to certain metals experience contact dermatitis when their skin is exposed to those materials. The metal in jewelry is a big contributor to these conditions because it rests close to the body for prolonged periods. Some individuals have metal allergies from childhood, and others develop allergic reactions later in life. Piercings are often triggers that cause allergies due to the metal particles being exposed to open wounds. Metal allergies do not go away, and repeated exposure can worsen the condition. Common Jewelry Metal Allergies Nickel is the primary metal that people are allergic to."

"text": "\"Pop and rock Pitbull: 'I would be hypocritical to perform there'Pop's current guest rapper of choice Pitbull was schooled in the melting pot of the Miami clubs. But his Cuban heritage is never far away from his music Alex Macpherson Thu 25 Aug 2011 17.00 EDT17.00 EDT25 103Very polite … Pitbull. O f all the cliches associated with rappers, one with more truth in it than most is their fondness for epic entourages: staff, sidekicks and assorted hangers-on designated a token menial role in the group. ( It's usually to do with not wanting to leave old friends behind in a poverty that the rapper has escaped.) Pitbull, it transpires, is different: as I await instructions regarding the interview time and place, he has casually made his own way across Miami to our hotel, arriving unexpectedly and entirely without company. Though rowdy on record, he is the epitome of politeness in person: when a hotel maid arrives with drinks, she is visibly taken aback to be greeted, unwarned, by a man who is something of a celebrity hero in his hometown – let alone one so eager to be solicitous and to help her with her tray. Pitbull, aka 30-year-old Armando Christian Pérez, has been knocking around for seven years – though it is only since 2009 that he has exploded into an unpredicted and still confounding ubiquity. Most in the UK will know him merely as one of the more inescapable figureheads of the urban/electro fusion that has dominated in the pop landscape for the last three years. It has offered endless permutations – or rather, the same permutation, endlessly deployed – of a basic ABC formula: abrasive Auto-Tune, boshing beats, cheesy chatup lines, and it's the default safe option of a certain kind of pop star, on both sides of the Atlantic: Usher, Jennifer Lopez, Alexandra Burke. As often as not, a guest verse from Pitbull is an inevitability: as with Sean Paul and Ludacris in years past, his name seems to be appended to 99% of the instances of the word \"\"featuring\"\" in any given top 40."

She later founded and directed the Alicia Alonso Ballet Company, which eventually became the Cuban National Ballet. Began Dancing as a Little Girl Born Alicia Ernestina de la Caridad dei Cobre Martinez Hoya on December 21, 1921, in Havana, Cuba, Alonso was the daughter of an army officer and his wife. The family was financially comfortable and lived in a fashionable section of the then-vibrant capital. Alonso indicated at a very early age an affinity for music and dance—her mother could occupy her happily for long periods with just a phonograph, a scarf, and some records. Alonso took her first ballet lessons at age nine at Havana's Escuela de Sociedad Pro-Arte Musical and a year later performed publicly for the first time in Tchaikovsky's Sleeping Beauty. The dancer's rapid progress in her lessons came to an abrupt halt in 1937, when the 16-year-old fell in love with and married a fellow ballet student, Fernando Alonso. The new couple moved to New York City, hoping to begin their professional careers there and found a home with relatives in the Spanish Harlem section of the city. Alonso soon gave birth to a daughter, Laura, but managed to continue her training at the School of American Ballet and take private classes with Leon Fokine, Alexandra Fedorova, Enrico Zanfretta, and Anatole Vilzak. She even arranged to travel to London to study for a time with the renowned Vera Volkova."

Over the next 3 years, she honed her acting skills in such low budget independent films as The Last Supper (1995); Feeling Minnesota (1996); and Head Above Water (1996). She returned to main stream films in My Best Friend's Wedding (1997), in which she held her own against veteran actress Julia Roberts.

There are beaches, bays, swamps, coral reefs, cliffs, and plains. The climate resembles that of the other islands of the Greater Antilles islands. There are only two seasons in this semitropical region. The dry season runs from November to April and the wet season from May until October. The average temperature range is from 73 F to 82 F. One hazard of living in such a region is the tropical storms. Most of Cuba's average 54 inches of rainfall comes from hurricanes (\"\"Cuba,\"\" 1). Cuba is a very mountainous island with ranges covering approximately 25 percent of the country. There are three separate mountain systems: the oriental, the central, and the occidental."

The revolution began in July 1953, [4] and continued sporadically until the rebels finally ousted Batista on 1 January 1959, replacing his government with a revolutionary socialist state. 26 July 1959 is celebrated in Cuba as the Day of the Revolution. The 26th of July Movement later reformed along communist lines, becoming the Communist Party in October 1965. [ 5]The Cuban Revolution had powerful domestic and international repercussions. In particular, it transformed Cuba's relationship with the United States, although efforts to improve diplomatic relations have gained momentum in recent years. [ 6] [7] [8] [9] In the immediate aftermath of the revolution, Castro's government began a program of nationalization and political consolidation that transformed Cuba's economy and civil society. [ 10] [11] The revolution also heralded an era of Cuban intervention in foreign military conflicts, including the Angolan Civil War and the Nicaraguan Revolution.

This is one of the specializations found in epithelial tissues. Simple cuboidal epithelium is found in organs that are specialized for secretion, such as salivary glands and thyroid follicles, and those that are specialized for diffusion, such as the kidney tubules. As its name implies, this tissue consists of a single layer of cuboidal cells on the basement membrane. Examine simple cuboidal epithelium in a section of the kidney. Simple cuboidal epithelial tissue lines the tubules, which will be seen in both longitudinal and cross sections. Find longitudinal and cross sections of the tubules using the mid-magnification view. Then use the high magnification view to observe the simple cuboidal epithelium that lines the lumen (empty space) of the tubules, or collecting ducts. Notice that the cells are arranged in single layers and that each cell is square or cuboidal in shape. Why do you think the kidney tubules are lined with this type of tissue?"

"text": "Keratinized epithelium refers to an outer layer of skin cells that has become hardened and died. This layer protects the tissues that lie underneath, and it prevents certain substances from passing into or out of the tissues below. Keratinized epithelium is found in animal cells, such as in mammalian skin and organ-lining cells, including human cells. Epithelial tissues are those that encase the bodies of animals, both internally and externally. Examples of epithelial tissues include the cells that make up the external layer of the human skin and the stomach lining. A defining feature of this type of tissue is that one surface of the tissue’s cells is always exposed, whether the exposure is inside or outside of the animal. This exposed side is called the apical layer surface. Epithelial tissue is categorized by its shape and number of layers. The shape might be squamous, cuboidal or columnar. Squamous cells are thin, flattened cells, whereas cuboidal cells are cube-shaped, and columnar cells are longer than they are wide."

As it rarely occurs as squamous or cuboidal epithelia, it is usually considered synonymous with the term pseudostratified columnar epithelium. The term pseudostratified is derived from the appearance of this epithelium in section which conveys the erroneous ( pseudo means almost or approaching) impression that there is more than one layer of cells, when in fact this is a true simple epithelium since all the cells rest on the basal lamina. The nucleous of these cells, however, are disposed at different levels, thus creating the illusion of cellular stratification. Not all ciliated cells extend to the luminal surface; such cells are capable of cell division providing replacements for cells lost or damaged. Pseudostratified epithelia function in secretion or absorption."

"text": "Science & Mathematics Biology How does the Epithelial (squamous) tissues structure relate to its function?i'm looking at an image of the tissue now and i don't see how its structure relates to what its purpose is2 following 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Squamous epithelium has two types, simple and stratified. Simple squamous epithelium consists of one layer of thin, flat epithelial cells resting on a basement membrane formed of connective tissue. It is found in such places as the alveoli of the lung and lining blood vessels. Squamous epithelial cells are flat, tightly adherent to each other, thin, and have a smooth surface. Their minute thickness serves them well in the lung alveol. the alveoli are the site of gas exchange between the air in the lungs and the gases in the blood, which occurs by diffusion. The rate of diffusion is inversely dependent on the thickness of the surface through which diffusion occurs; the thicker the layers, the slower the diffusion. Gas exchange requires quick diffusion, therefore thin squamous epithelial cells are excellent for the job. Blood flow in blood vessels requires the lining surface of the vessels to be smooth, to reduce friction and aid blood flow. the smooth surface of squamous epithelial cells serves them well for this job as well."

Introduction Differentiation-each cell develops characteristic structural features and limited number of functions200 different types of cells in human body, but trillions of cells total Cells combine to form tissues Histology – study of tissue Examination of Tissue definition A group of cells of similar embryonic origin sometimes with some intercellular substances – all dedicated to a common function. Of the four tissue types – 3 types of tissue cells are not attached to one another – thus they have room to have some substances in between the cells (intercellular substances) – these tissues are connective, muscle, and nerve Epithelial tissue cells are attached to one another – thus no room between the cells Tissue types (4)Epithelial – covers exposed surfaces, lines internal passageways, forms glands Connective – fills internal spaces, provide structural support for other tissues, transport, and storage Muscle – contractile Nervous (neural) – carries information as electrical impulses Nervous tissue: Internal communication• Brain, spinal cord, and nerves Muscle tissue: Contracts to cause movement• Muscles attached to bones (skeletal)• Muscles of heart (cardiac)• Muscles of walls of hollow organs (smooth)Epithelial tissue: Forms boundaries between differentenvironments, protects, secretes, absorbs, filters• Skin surface (epidermis)• Lining of GI tract organs and other hollow organs Connective tissue: Supports, protects, bindsother tissues together• Bones• Tendons• Fat and other soft padding tissue Figure 4.1Epithelial tissue Epithelia and glands Epithelium – layer of cells that forms a barrier with specific properties Cover every exposed bodypart and line all passageways such as respiratory and digestive system. Also line chest cavity, abdominal cavity, fluid-filled chambers in brain, eye, and inner ear. Characteristics of epithelia Cellularity –cells closely bound together by one or more types of cell junctions (covered later). Polarity – always has an exposed surface…apical surface. Also has attached basal surface where the epithelium is attached to underlying tissues Organelles and other cytoplasmic components are distributed unevenly between apical and basal surfaces. Characteristics of epithelia Attachment – basal surface attached to thin basement membrane."

Report abuse Transcript of Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium by: Rodrigo Vargas What it is Stratified cuboidal epithelia is a rare type of epithelial tissue composed of cuboidally shaped cells arranged in multiple layers. \"\" Stratified\"\" signifies two or more layers of epithelial cells. \"\" Cuboidal\"\" describes cells that are rather box-shaped, not flattened. Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium Its Functions Its primary functions include protection, support, secretion and absorption. Its functions also includes sweat secretion, aiding in sperm production and secretion of ovarian hormones. All epithelial cells have shared characteristics but differ in their shape and structure. With more than one layer of cells helps the tissue better withstand chemical and physical assault from outside forces. This allows the outer layer of cells to slough off or become damaged without harming the layers of cells below. Structure of The Tissue Stratified cuboidal cells might be square, round or hexagonal in shape."

They have been white, if I may so put it, too long. They have been married to the lie of white supremacy too long. The effect in their personalities, their lives, their very grasp of realty, has been as devastating as the lava which so memorably immobilized the citizens of Pompeii. They are unable to conceive that their version of reality, which they want me to accept, is an insult to my history, a parody of theirs and an intolerable violation of myself.”— James Baldwin“Here’s the thing.

"text": "\"Stalin’s ‘Anti-Semitism’Posted on July 27, 2016 | Leave a comment The accusation that Stalin was an anti-Semite is a strange one. Neither Stalin’s written texts nor his actions indicate anti-Semitism. Indeed, they indicate precisely the opposite, as I will show in a moment. So those who wish to make the accusation have to rely on hearsay – second- and third-hand snippets from passing conversations, whether from an estranged daughter or from those within and without the USSR who were not favourably disposed to Stalin. [ 1] And once such a position is ‘established’, it is then possible to read some of his actions and written comments in such a light. For instance, the ‘anti-cosmopolitan’ campaign of the late 1940s becomes a coded ‘anti-Semitic’ campaign. Or the ‘doctors plot’ of 1952-53 – in which leading doctors were suspected of seeking to assassinate government officials – is seen as an excuse for a widespread anti-Semitic purge and deportation, [2] halted only because of Stalin’s death (we may thank Khrushchev for this piece of speculation). However, the only way such an assumption can work is that many doctors in the Soviet Union were Jewish; therefore the attack on doctors was anti-Semitic. Equally, even more doctors were Russian, but for some strange reason, the plot is not described as anti-Russian. Unfortunately for Stalin’s accusers, even the hearsay indicates that Stalin was opposed to the deep-rooted anti-Semitism of Russian culture."

Part of a series on Certainty Approximation Belief Certainty Doubt Determinism Fallibilism Fatalism Hypothesis Justification Nihilism Proof Scientific theory Skepticism Solipsism Theory Truth Uncertainty Related concepts and fundamentals: Agnosticism Epistemology Presupposition Probabilityv t e Belief is the state of mind in which a person thinks something to be the case with or without there being empirical evidence to prove that something is the case with factual certainty. Another way of defining belief sees it as a mental representation of an attitude positively oriented towards the likelihood of something being true. [ 1] In the context of Ancient Greek thought, two related concepts were identified with regards to the concept of belief: pistis and doxa. Simplified, we may say that pistis refers to \"\"trust\"\" and \"\"confidence\"\", while doxa refers to \"\"opinion\"\" and \"\"acceptance\"\". The English word \"\" orthodoxy \"\" derives from doxa. Jonathan Leicester suggests that belief has the purpose of guiding action rather than indicating truth. [ 2]In epistemology, philosophers use the term \"\"belief\"\" to refer to personal attitudes associated with true or false ideas and concepts. However, \"\"belief\"\" does not require active introspection and circumspection."

Posted Nov 30, 2011SHARETWEETEMAILMORESome evolutionists have argued that one of the factors that led to the evolution of our large brains is the complexity of human sociality (Social Intelligence Hypothesis; cf. Dunbar, 2003 ). One element of social intelligence is the capacity to be Machiavellian (see Byrne & Whiten, 1988; Whiten & Byrne, 1997; Wilson, Near, & Miller, 1996 ), which results in an evolutionary arms race between the capacity for improved deception (without being detected) whilst being able to detect deception in others. Incidentally, the great evolutionary biologist Robert Trivers argues that self-deception has evolved as a means of navigating the minefield of deceiving others. Specifically, he proposes that self-deception permits an individual to better deceive others, as overt signals of the Machiavellian intent are less likely to manifest themselves in the deceiver (see his recent book The Folly of Fools: The Logic of Deceit and Self-Deception in Human Life ). I cover these issues in greater detail in my 2007 academic book The Evolutionary Bases of Consumption. Also see here for my post on self-deception on American Idol.

"text": "Science Weather & Tides Clouds Q: How Do Clouds Make Rain? A: Quick Answer Precipitation occurs when moist air rises to cooler altitudes, condensing the water out of the air into droplets. Once these droplets become heavy enough, often by coalescing around motes of dust or other particles, they fall out of the cloud as precipitation. Without significant updrafts bringing more moisture to the cloud layer, the condensed water may remain light enough to stay aloft, which is why not every cloud brings rain.

Credit: Jared Tarbell CC-BY-2.0Full Answer Rain clouds may form in a variety of meteorological conditions. Commonly, they occur across frontal boundaries, where a mass of warm air is forced upward by a cold front, pushing a large amount of moisture into the upper atmosphere.

How are clouds formed? All air contains water, but near the ground it is usually in the form of an invisible gas called water vapor. When warm air rises, it expands and cools. Cool air can't hold as much water vapor as warm air, so some of the vapor condenses onto tiny pieces of dust that are floating in the air and forms a tiny droplet around each dust particle. When billions of these droplets come together they become a visible cloud. Why are clouds white? Since light travels as waves of different lengths, each color has its very own unique wavelength."

Cumuliform cloudscape over Swifts Creek, Australia In meteorology, a cloud is an aerosol comprising a visible mass of minute liquid droplets, frozen crystals, or particles suspended in the atmosphere above the surface of a planetary body. [ 1] The droplets and crystals may be made of water or various chemicals. On Earth, clouds are formed as a result of saturation of the air when it is cooled to its dew point, or when it gains sufficient moisture (usually in the form of water vapor) from an adjacent source to raise the dew point to the ambient temperature. They are seen in the Earth's homosphere (which includes the troposphere, stratosphere, and mesosphere ). Nephology is the science of clouds which is undertaken in the cloud physics branch of meteorology. There are two methods of naming clouds in their respective layers of the atmosphere; Latin and common. Cloud types in the troposphere, the atmospheric layer closest to Earth's surface, have Latin names due to the universal adaptation of Luke Howard 's nomenclature. Formally proposed in 1802, it became the basis of a modern international system that divides clouds into five physical forms that appear in any or all of three altitude levels (formerly known as étages ). These physical types, in approximate ascending order of convective activity, include stratiform sheets, cirriform wisps and patches, stratocumuliform layers (mainly structured as rolls, ripples, and patches), cumuliform heaps, and very large cumulonimbiform heaps that often show complex structure."

Answer by Don Dfoofnik Confidence votes 231KThere are three kinds of answers: ones that are mostly right, ones that are mostly wrong, and those that once were right but now are wrong. Cumulonimbus Clouds (thunderclouds) Cumulonimbus is a type of cloud that is tall, dense, and usually dark. These clouds form thunderstorms, and can create severe weather conditions, such as heavy rain, damaging winds, hail, lightning, and tornadoes. A cumulonimbus cloud that progresses to an intense, long-lived form is known as a \"\"supercell\"\". Groups of these storms are associated with damaging straight-line winds, or derechos. The clouds can form alone, in clusters, or along a cold front in a squall line. During the spring and summer, cumulonimbus clouds are more likely to form in the afternoon, due to the heating of the Earth's surface. However, they can also form along a cold front when the warm buoyant air is forced upward by the heavier cold air mass that cuts under the warmer air like a wedge. This can happen at any time of the year, as demonstrated by thunderstorms that happen in conjunction with snowstorms in the winter."

When there is about to be a thunderstorm, a cumulonimbus cloud forms, often in a clear blue sky. ( When a cloud’s name ends in nimbus, it means rain or snow is falling from the cloud.) The cloud increases in size and begins to build up peaks, which become very dark. Cumulonimbus clouds mean that there is going to be a thunderstorm, with wind, rain and even hail on a summer day. The loud sound that thunder makes is due to the heat of the flash of lightning. This heat causes the air to suddenly expand (grow bigger) and then contract (grow smaller)."

"text": "Major vs Minor Arcana Tarot Cards: What’s the Difference? Share with Friends 0 0 0Still trying to wrap your head around the concept of Major Arcana and Minor Arcana tarot cards? A typical Tarot deck contains 78 unique cards with varying suits, elements, classes, and faculties. While there are several different variations, all tarot cards fall under two main categories – Major Arcana or Minor Arcana. Minor Arcana Also known as the Lesser Arcana, the Minor Arcana is comprised of four suits (just like a deck of regular playing cards) – Wands, Pentacles, Cups and Swords – each of which has 14 cards. Each of the 56 total Minor Arcana cards is numbered from one (ace) to ten. ( Note: We are excluding the court cards in this part as the court cards are similar to face cards, which we will discuss in a moment). When a card from the suit of Wands appears in your Tarot reading, it usually symbolizes matters that we are most passionate about. It can be about creativity and taking action and connects to the element of fire. The suit of Pentacles is connected to the element of Earth and symbolizes concerns related more to Earthly and material concerns (money)."

It also symbolizes good fortune and happy marriages because the blossoms of the peony flower is round which symbolizes money. The generous look of the peony flower also represents fortune in romance thus it symbolize a happy marriage. Traditionally, couples that are celebrating their 12th wedding anniversary are given peonies as present. Another meaning for peony flower connotes compassion, bashfulness and shame. This is because according to some legends, nymphs who are shy and bashful to show themselves to humans tend to hide on the petals of the peonies. Again since the peony flower has generous petals, some associate it with compassion. There is also a story in Greek Mythology that claims Paeon was turned into a peony so that he can be spared from the natural human death.

It allows you to explore more about your feelings and about the way you connect to the others and to the world. An important note about the Cups Tarot symbolism is that they are not the only cards that deal with emotions. They are the ones directly linked to the heart and to specific feelings such as love, bliss, melancholy, sorrow. When it comes to romantic life, than Cups definitely play an important role in the reading. However, other suits also deal indirectly with emotions and feelings: Wands are about passion, Pentacles are more rooted into the ground and Swords usually indicate the presence of various types of anxieties. Coming back to Cups, they are part of the Minor Arcana, their corresponding natural element is water and the associated season is autumn and they represent the west. The Positive and Negative Tarot Meanings of Cups If you think about Cups positive meanings, consider openness, spontaneity, being in-touch with your feelings and with those around you."

As for the poppy, the general Victorian meanings are imagination and eternal sleep. But this would actually change depending on the color of the poppy that was given since there are a lot of color varieties for the poppy. For example, the red poppies mean pleasure, white poppies means consolation and yellow poppies on the other hand represents success. If you go over to China, you will find out that the poppy has a romantic meaning for lovers. It actually signifies the loyalty and faith given to each other. This meaning sprung from a Chinese legend where it is said that poppies bloomed in a woman’s grave. The flower is said to inspire the woman’s lover to do heroic feats. He did so by dancing on the battlefields with his prized sword."

They are key principles core to human life, such as life and death, ethical dilemmas, spirituality, and interaction with other people. One can view the Major Arcana as spiritual chart that the Querent can use to plot their course as they make their journey through life and beyond.

"text": "Data analysts perform a variety of tasks related to collecting, organizing, and interpreting statistical information. The precise nature of the job varies somewhat from profession to profession, as an analyst working for a hospital would necessarily focus on different things than would someone working for a department store or a supermarket chain. In any capacity, though, people with this job look for ways of assigning numerical values to different business functions, and are responsible for identifying efficiencies, problem areas, and possible improvements. Information Compilation One of the most important things any data analyst does is collect, sort, and study different sets of information. This can look really different in different settings, but is usually related to nailing down a fixed value to some process or function so that it can be assessed and compared over time. A grocery store might want an analyst to collect all the hours that certain employees work along with profit margins for certain days, weeks, or even hours, for instance; an Internet business might want to see hard numbers on where customers are coming from, how much they are spending on purchases, and whether deals like free shipping have any bearing on overall profits. Ad There are several different strategies people can use to compile data, but there are typically three universal goals. The data must be regulated, normalized, and calibrated such that it could be taken out of context, used alone, or put in conjunction with other figures and still maintain its integrity. Analysts typically use computer systems and complex calculation applications to get their numbers nailed down, but there is still a lot of intellectual know-how that goes into making these systems work. Extrapolation and Interpretation Once the information has been collected, analysts are usually responsible for coming up with some conclusions about what it means, as well as educating business executives on how to use it."

"text": "What is Applied Behavior Analysis, and Why You Want a Behavior Analyst On Your Child’s Team Michelle Hecht MA, BCBA When it comes to helping children with autism to achieve their learning goals, and to become participating, contributing, and independent members of society, intensive applied behavior analysis, or ABA, is currently the educational treatment approach with the strongest scientific support. Given that as of yet there is no known cure or preventative treatment for this neurodevelopmental disorder, all parents and guardians of children recently diagnosed with autism should be equipped with ABA knowledge and skills. So, what is applied behavior analysis, and why should you have a behavior analyst on your child’s team? What is Applied Behavior Analysis? Behavior analysis is the scientific approach to understanding how environment affects behavior. These days it is generally accepted that behavior is impacted greatly by both biological and environmental factors. Professional and academic fields as diverse as education and advertising examine how various aspects of the environment affect human behavior, to promote their respective knowledge bases and goals. Behavior analysis stands out among these fields as a science. It relies on the same tools as other sciences: clear definitions, objective measurement, controlled experimentation, data analysis, and replication. Applied behavior analysis utilizes these tools in order to bring about important changes in the behavior of individual clients."

Have you seen some of the more complicated-looking models and wonder how you can create these with your business analysis tool set? In this article, we’ll discuss the types of tools used to generate different types of data models, and then specifically look at how you can use tools you are most likely familiar with to do data modeling. ( By the way, we’ve put together a virtual class covering the most critical data modeling techniques you need to know – Data Modeling for Business Analysts . ) Database Tools Can Generate Complicated-Looking Models Most database models we see are physical-level models representing the actual database structure. The good news is that no one is manually creating these models. Most often, they are generated output direct from the database software itself. This also happens to be one reason they are so difficult to read from a business perspective. These models do not represent meaningful abstractions designed to help business stakeholders make decisions about data requirements. They simply show us what exists today, in all its wonderful and gory detail. ("

January 2, 2017 kurt lee Business, Computer, Information Technology, Technical, Technology, Uncategorized A data analyst (sometimes called systems analyst) helps businesses use their computer systems. Your knowledge of computers and problem-solving skills could help you gain the qualifications needed to become a data analyst. More than computers: data analyst responsibilities To help businesses use their computers, data analysts solve processing problems, figure out what each user needs, and review a computer system’s capabilities. You can figure out which hardware and software should be used and how to configure them. Other tasks can include working with management on computer systems to determine whether goals are being met, and coordinating and linking computer systems. But a data analyst job involves more than computers–these professionals need to be able to work with the people who use them. An analyst needs to be able to listen, solve problems, and communicate with all levels of staff and management, some of whom might not have a computer background. Education, training and degrees for a data analyst Many employers are interested in a data analyst with education and relevant work experience in this field.

If you enjoy working with numbers and algebraic functions, reverse-engineering other people’s work, and enjoy sharing what you’ve learned with the world, then data analyst may be an appealing career choice for you. For those who are interested in or just beginning a career in data analysis, here’s a few tips to help you get started, along with a nice deal on some courses to help you get started learning right away. Be willing to learn With any new career, willingness to learn something new can take you far. This is even more true in the data analysis field where the work you do could impact future decisions and moves within a company. Curtis Silver, Business Analyst for Petco Support Services has this to say about staying open to learning new things:“Show a willingness to learn. Companies don’t want to hire an entry-level analyst that isn’t going to show an ability to mold and grow with the company. This is their data, they want someone who is willing to help their company evolve, not strictly tell them what to do. Your job as an analyst is to advise the business based on trends and forecasts, in order to do this competently, you have to not only understand the technical aspects of the job, but the human aspects of the business."

Day geckos are actually a common name of a group of over 60 species of small lizards that vary in size, appearance, and behaviors. Popular pet day geckos include the giant day gecko that is recorded to live up to 20 years but more commonly lives six to eight years in captivity. What Species of Day Gecko Makes a Good Pet? Day geckos in general are not good geckos for beginner reptile keepers but for those with limited reptile experience who want to venture into the day gecko realm should research giant day geckos, gold dust day geckos, or lined day geckos. Day Gecko Behavior Surprise! Day geckos are active during the day unlike many other lizards. They are generally pretty fragile and it is not a good idea to handle them since their skin is quite delicate. They also can be somewhat territorial and therefore need to be housed alone."

Northcott / Getty Images The gecko is a small to medium species of lizard that is found in the more temperate and tropical regions of the world. Geckos are more commonly found around the Equator and in the Southern Hemisphere although a few species of gecko are found north of the Equator in warmer regions. Geckos are found in a wide variety of habitats in these warmer parts of the world including rocky deserts, mountains, jungles, rainforests, grasslands and even in urban areas. There are thought to be over 2,000 different species of gecko found around the world and it is widely believed that there are more species of gecko that are yet to be discovered. Geckos are found in a wide variety of colors and have various different markings on their bodies depending on the species of gecko. Most geckos are nocturnal, which means they are active at night, but day geckos are active during the day and nibble on insects, fruits, and flower nectar. Most geckos make noises such as chirping, barking, and clicking when they are defending their territory or attracting a mate. Geckos as Pets Geckos come in a variety of beautiful patterns/colors depending on the species. There are many types of geckos, and several are kept as pets. The most common is likely the leopard gecko (Eublepharis macularius); it’s a good starter reptile that’s also popular with experienced owners."

"text": "Unlike many reptiles that exhibit ontogenetic or age-related dietary shifts, most neonate geckos eat the same type of food as adult geckos do. However, baby geckos' small size limits the size of the prey they can capture, overpower and ingest safely. Leopard geckos ( Eublepharis macularius ), tokay geckos ( Gekko gecko ), African fat-tailed geckos ( Hemitheconyx caudicinctus) and other carnivorous species consume small invertebrates, while omnivorous species, such as day geckos ( Phelsuma spp.) and crested geckos ( Correlophus ciliatus) add soft fruits and nectar to their diet. Always consult a qualified reptile veterinarian before making significant dietary changes. Hatchlings usually survive on egg yolk reserves for a few days.credit: cappui/i Stock/Getty Images Insect Foods Whether or not they supplement their diets with plant products, most geckos eagerly consume insects and other small arthropods. Crickets and roaches are excellent staples, but you must offer other bugs, such as roaches, mealworms, superworms, silkworms, soldier fly larvae and wax worms, to ensure your pets have a well-rounded diet. Superworms and mealworms have higher fat content than crickets, roaches and superworms do, so offer them only in moderation -- perhaps once per week. Gecko breeder extraordinaire Ron Tremper recommends feeding leopard geckos two appropriately sized insects for every inch of your gecko's length, every other day. For example, a 3-inch-long leopard gecko will need about six crickets three or four days per week."

It is difficult to overfeed leopard geckos, since they store their excess fat in their tail, but it is possible. So if you feel your leo is gaining a lot of unnecessary weight, you may want to cut back on their feedings or remove any fatty insects from their diet. You should feed your leopard gecko late in the day or early in the evening, since that is generally the time they start hunting in nature. There is no ideal routine to feeding leopard geckos since each gecko has different eating habits.

Geckos can get stressed from being shipped, then placed in a strange environment. This may cause them to go off-feed for several days or weeks.

However, the house gecko is basically the most common household pet out there when it comes to owning a gecko and they’re relatively easy to maintain as well. People all over the world love owning these things as pets because not only are they small and tiny in nature but they’re relatively inexpensive as well, which some lizards just aren’t worth the trouble of owning and some breeds are worth more trouble than what they’ll end up costing you. Also, it’s extremely easy to maintain them in captivity and it’s one of the easiest pets to own period. Some people say that it’s a lot easier than owning a dog because while it might be man’s best friend, there are a lot of things you have to worry about and common household pets like the dog can be very expensive if you’re on a shoestring budget. The house gecko is meant for an observational type of pet that you can watch every now and then and while some gecko are easily handled, it’s really not recommended that you handle a house gecko because of how fragile they are. While it’s true they’re very gentle, they’re also very fragile and can break easy, kind of like a toy. Unlike some other particular breed of gecko, the house gecko is also relatively quick so if it escapes out of your hands and starts running through the house, you’re going to have a fun afternoon on your hands running through the house trying to chase it down. However, unlike some pets which can be self-sufficient such as a cat that can go out on its own and hunt when you stop feeding it, the house gecko relies solely on you to feed it. The common life span of a house gecko tends to be around 5 years or a little less depending on how well they’re taken care of."

With more than 1,400 species that live in a wide range of habitats, geckos display nearly every hue, as well as decorative spots and patterns. Brown and Gray Geckos Shades of brown or gray adorn most geckos around the world, found except in northeastern North America, northern Eurasia and Antarctica. These camouflaging colors help the geckos hide among rocks, dirt and sand from predatory birds such as eagles and hawks. Among the brown geckos are common house geckos (Hemidactylus frenatus), African fat tail geckos (Hemitheconyx caudicinctus), stump-toed geckos (Gehyra mutilata) and the Namib sand gecko, also known as the web-footed gecko (Pachydactylus rangei). Gray species include the Mediterranean gecko (Hemidactylus turcicus), native to Southern Europe and Northern Africa, and the Indo-Pacific Gecko (Hemidactylus garnotii), native to Southeast Asia, which are now firmly established in Florida. Green Geckos Green gecko species include the Madagascar giant day gecko (Phelsuma madagascariensis), one of the largest geckos in the world. It grows up to 9 inches long in its native habitat on the Big Red Island. Among the more unusual species is New Zealand's bright green barking gecko (Naultinus punctatus), which actually barks at predators to warn them away.

They are not for the beginner herpetologist, as their care requirements are quite specific and they are easily stressed. They do not like to be handled, so pass this critter by at the pet store or reptile expo if you want to be able to handle your reptile. Chameleon Color Changing True chameleons (also referred to as old world chameleons) are most well known for their ability to change color. Young chameleons are usually a dull gray/brown color and can change shades a bit. At around five months of age, the adult color and the ability to change colors develops, and a range of colors including green, blue-green, turquoise and black can be seen. Changing colors provides camouflage, temperature regulation, and a means of communicating with other chameleons. Colors change in response to excitement, stress, temperature, lighting conditions, the presence of another chameleon, and other influences. Generally, a dark brown to black chameleon is stressed, with the brighter colors reflecting a happier mood. Also, different colors can be seen due to color mutations and other color phases."

Some commercially produced foods sold for geckos contain the same nutritional content that geckos in the wild can eat. For geckos, variety isn't just the spice of life: It's food for life. Wild Eating Habits In the wild, geckos eat anything that is small enough for them to overpower or capture and consume. Insects such as crickets and grasshoppers are their mainstay dietary choice in their native unrestricted environment. Geckos will also consume arthropods such as spiders, centipedes and small scorpions. Small rodents -- particularly young still in the nest -- are also on their list of prey. They even have cannibalistic tastes: They will eat hatchling geckos. Feeding in Captivity Exact duplication of a wild diet in a captive setting is not a likely option. However, providing a variety of food choices such as crickets, mealworms, silkworms, waxworms and locusts goes a long way toward giving geckos the nutritional variety they require to remain healthy."

Since most keepers consider regular feeding to be a sign of good health, it is disconcerting when a gecko doesn’t eat. Most of the time, a gecko does not eat well due to illness, stress or life cycle events. Illness A gecko which is impacted, has an infection, a high parasite load, or who has MBD (Metabolic Bone Disease) is likely to stop eating. Some of these illnesses can be observed by the keeper: an infection may show up as a puss-filled lesion, a reddened or swollen area, or filmy eyes. A gecko with a respiratory infection may have plugged nostrils, be laboring to breathe or may make unnatural “croaking” sounds. Signs of MBD include rubbery legs and jaw and inability to bear weight. Geckos who are impacted often have a swollen belly and may not move their bowels for a long time. Although MBD and impaction may be “cured” by increasing calcium and vitamin D3 intake, and a warm soak respectively, geckos who are ill need to be seen by a vet who may prescribe antibiotics or some other treatment. Some illnesses are unavoidable even by the most experienced keeper."

Please consult a qualified health care professional for personalized medical advice. Why do my fingernails have ridges lengthwise on them? We’re glad you specified the direction of your ridges — it turns out that matters. Vertical lines on one’s nails, like those the writer seems to have, are a common phenomenon that often get more pronounced with age. “There are many reasons for ridged nails but the most common is aging,” says Dr. Phoebe Rich, M. D., FAAD, clinical adjunct professor of dermatology at Oregon Health Science University. “ As we age the nail matrix becomes atrophied in areas resulting in longitudinal ridging of nails. I tell people they are like wrinkles in the nails."

"text": "July 16, 2012What Do the Vertical Lines on My Nails Mean? Personal/Inspirationalby Nicki Zevola Benvenuti. Reader Question: What does it mean when fingernails develop vertical ridges (vertical lines on nails), and is it cause for concern?– Anonymous Onychorrhexis = Longitudinal Ridging Since I suffer from onychorrhexis, I thought that I’d take an opportunity to investigate and write about where my fingernails ridges came from and what I can do to treat them. My research led me to the term “ onychorrhexis ,” which simply means brittle nails, according to Dr. Joseph Jorizzo, a dermatologist and professor at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, N. C. When nails are brittle, they often split at the ends and have longitudinal ridging. The appearance of longitudinal ridging alone is referred to as onychorrhexis, whereas the appearance of split ends alone is referred to as onychoschisis. In many cases a patient will have both together, thus making brittle nails a common complaint, according to Dr. Jorizzo. Although a cause for split ends can sometimes be determined, many patients who want to know the specific cause for their onychorrhexis are disappointed to find that there isn’t one. Dr. Jorizzo noted that nearly everyone will get onychorrhexis at some point in their lives because it’s something that happens with age, assuring me that “This is not the slightest bit a health issue. ”When patients come in looking for a solution to longitudinal ridging, Dr. Jorizzo said he’s put in the position of having to find an appropriate way to say that it occurs because they’re getting older."

So I'm assuming if your nails are growing long/healty/strong then your hair is growing at the same rate of health/strength, right?? The reason I ask is because I have always had long, healthy nails. I would always get questioned as a kid as to whether my nails fake b/c they were so long. I remember the girl w/the longest hair the neighborhood always saying she wanted to trade me her hair for my nails and would take long nails anyday over long hair (tehe ). I put little to no effort into growing or protecting my nails; they were strong and would not break easily. However, this did not translate to my hair. It was the exact opposite experience. Short, breaking, seemingly ungrowing and dry dry hair."

There are many causes of grooves or ridges on fingernails. Vertical grooves or ridges are quite common; however, horizontal ridges are not and they may signify an underlying illness. Consult your doctor should you discover horizontal ridges on your fingernails. Beau's Lines Beau's lines are horizontal depressions on the fingernail, usually at the same area on the nail plate. They occur after or during a serious illness such as a systemic infection or diabetes. Cancer patients being treated with chemotherapy may get Beau's lines. Patients with Raynaud's disease may get horizontal ridges on their fingernails from being exposed to cold temperatures. Nail trauma and malnutrition can also cause Beau's lines. The grooves may disappear after recovering from illness."

Nail ridges are one of the changes patients frequently ask their podiatrists about. What causes them? Are they a sign of an underlying medical condition? Will they go away? “ Usually toenail ridges are associated with the natural process of aging and are not a cause for concern,” says Dr. Nadia Levy of The Center for Podiatric Care and Sports Medicine in New York. “ However, you should definitely stop in and see me if your nail color or texture changes, if the nails begin growing unusually fast or slow, and if the ridges appear unevenly spaced or sized.” In today’s post, we’ll delve into more detail about the dreaded toenail ridges.

Or at least give your nails a good look before you paint them. Your fingernails and toenails are like 20 mini-mirrors to the state of your overall health. Changes throughout the body that are otherwise invisible can sometimes be first seen in the nails, says dermatologist Amy Newburger, a senior attending physician at St. Luke's - Roosevelt Medical Consortium in New York City. Fingernails tend to give more reliable clues than toenails, given the wear and tear of walking, tight shoes, and slower foot circulation over time, which can obscure toenail changes. But check both hands and feet -- the first of the following nine nail clues explains why. Clue 1: A black line Look for: A black discoloration that's a straight vertical line or streak and grows from the nail bed, usually on a single nail. About 75 percent of cases involve the big toe or the thumb, according to a review in the British Journal of Dermatology. Especially worrisome: a discoloration that's increasing or that's wider at the lower part of the nail than the tip. \"\" That tells you that whatever is producing the pigment is producing more of it,\"\" says Newburger."

It can also mean that your nails have been stained by a product like nail polish, or that you’re having an allergic reaction. Occasionally nails might turn yellow as a symptom of something more serious, such as chronic lung conditions, internal malignancies, lymphatic obstructions, and even rheumatoid arthritis. Read on to find out more about what causes yellow nails and how to get rid of this condition. Possible causes Possible causes of yellow nails If your nails have been damaged by dyes or harsh products, new nail growth should be a healthy, clear color. If your nails continue to be yellow, there may be something else going on in your body. Sometimes having yellow nails can be an indication of something more serious. Vitamin or mineral deficiencies can cause nails to appear yellow, and introducing a multivitamin supplement to your regiment may stop the problem. In some cases, nails that remain yellow despite repeated treatment can be a symptom of thyroid conditions, psoriasis, or diabetes."

It could be a vitamin deficiency, though chances are its just a calcium buildup in your nails. This also happens can happen with age, and while sometimes unsightly is not a major concern for most people who have it. For a quick, inexpensive fix, purchase a buffer kit, which will polish the top of your nails down, making them look smooth and healthy, and make manicures look oh-so much better. I have the same problem, and I found buffing them worked the best for me, the entire kit probably only cost $4 total, and I'm sure you could find cheaper (or more expensive and nicer) ones wherever you may be.

The Act simplifies and brings into one act existing discrimination law including:the Equal Pay Act 1970;the Sex Discrimination Act 1975;the Race Relations Act 1976;the Disability Discrimination Act 1995;the Equality Act 2006, part 2the Employment Equality (Religion or Belief) Regulations 2003;the Employment Equality (Sexual Orientation) Regulations 2003;the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006;and the Equality Act (Sexual Orientation) Regulations 2007).2.2 Commencement The Equality Act received Royal Assent on 8 April 2010 and its core provisions cam into force from 1 October 2010. The public sector equality duty came into force in April 2011.3 The Equality Act: key concepts3.1 Forms of discrimination The Act defines the various kinds of discrimination with reference to the characteristics which are protected under the Act (see section 3.2 below for more detail). Whilst these types of discrimination largely replicate those found in previous legislation there are some important changes which materially alter the scope of protection.3.1.1 Direct Discrimination (section 13)Direct discrimination occurs when someone is treated less favourably than another person because:they have a protected characteristic,they are thought to have a protected characteristic orthey associate with someone who has a protected characteristic."

It concerned survival cannibalism following a shipwreck and its purported justification on the basis of a Custom of the Sea. [ 1] It marked the culmination of a long history of attempts by the law, in the face of public opinion sympathetic to castaways, to outlaw the custom and it became something of a cause célèbre in Victorian Britain. Dudley and Stephens were shipwrecked along with two other men. When one of them, the cabin boy Richard Parker, fell into a coma, Dudley and Stephens decided to kill him for food. After a highly publicized trial they were convicted of murder and sentenced to death with a recommendation for clemency; the sentence was commuted to six months in prison.

Photograph: Frank Baron for the Guardian With around 600,000 public sector jobs expected to be axed in the next five or six years Citizens Advice offices are preparing for a surge in calls for employment information. But only a fairly small minority of these workers will find that they are entitled to legal aid – so may not be able to get the help they want. It is one of those areas, like NHS dentistry and final salary pension schemes, where availability has already dropped rapidly and looks set to fall even further. While one in three of us is estimated to have a legal problem each year, under 30% are now covered by legal aid. That was 52% in 1998. In the next few weeks, the government will begin consulting on reforms to the system, and some experts say it will be a huge surprise if the situation does not get even tighter. So who can get legal aid in England and Wales? What can they get it for?"

"text": "This is the seventh in a series of 10 articles written by specialist landlord & tenant solicitor Tessa Shepperson, founder of the online Landlord Law Service. Help! My tenant has stopped paying rent – what do I do? Rent is the big problem that worries landlords. You will probably have expenses to pay such as mortgage repayments, which will fall due whether or not the tenant is paying their rent. The most important thing is to choose your tenants wisely so this does not happen; I covered this in my third post in this series . However, that is no help if you are faced with a non paying tenant. Here are some tips for you (note that this article is written for landlords of assured shorthold tenancies only): Keep checking . Make sure you keep on top of things and check regularly to make sure that your tenant is paying. For example if tenants pay by standing order or bank transfer, check your bank account every day to make sure that payments are coming in as they should."

Richard Roxburgh as Cleaver Greene in Rake. Photograph: Ben Timony C leaver Greene is not your typical TV defence barrister. His clients aren’t those unable to fight their own corner, and Cleaver isn’t driven by a need to correct some formative wrong from his past. What does drive him are his gambling debts, unpaid tax, and the feeling deep in his soul that his job might be a sham. A straight-talking scoundrel played with relish by Richard Roxburgh, Cleaver is the antihero at the heart of Rake, possibly the most underrated show on Netflix, and a scathing attack on the inequalities of the Australian legal system. Created by film director Peter Duncan, and later remade in the US with Greg Kinnear, Rake is styled on Jimmy Mc Govern’s Cracker: social commentary disguised as a procedural. Teeming with sex, violence and intelligent dialogue, it pits a cunning Cleaver – a man who’ll defend anything, even his kink for rightwing women – against crooks whose default tactic in the box is to confess to fake prescription drug addictions that were “clouding their judgment”. Cleaver can usually outsmart them, but a piece of him is conflicted, and so he sabotages his private life as deftly as he wins cases. When we first meet him, he’s being stomped by a loan shark for failing to settle his debts. That’s just the first of our hero’s worries: Cleaver is addicted to cocaine, spread-betting and chasing impossible women – clients, friends’ wives, friends’ daughters."

"text": "\"Home Knowledge Legal articles February 2016There is no recognised standard definition of defects. However, a definition that is easy to follow is given in the leading textbook Hudson’s Building and Engineering Contracts as work which fails to comply with the express descriptions or requirements of the contract, including very importantly, any drawings or specifications, together with any implied terms as to its quality, workmanship, performance or design In plain terms, therefore, a defect is something that has a fault or a flaw:in terms of the goods themselves – this may be because:- (a) something does not do what it should (a defect in the ordinary sense that the thing does not work); (b) something that does what it ought to do but is simply not what was asked for (non-compliance with specification) or goods are of a lower standard or quality than requested:in terms of defective workmanship, this would include defective setting out and positioning and defective assembly and non-compliance with accepted, or specified practices and codes:in terms of defective design, where there is an element of choice or option in how the works are done and what materials are used and the designer fails to use proper skill and care. The defective work or materials will amount to a breach of contract by the building contractor. There could be liability to third parties in the tort (i.e. civil wrong) of negligence, and breach of statutory duty. One could be forgiven for thinking that, since a defect amounts to a breach of contract, once a defect (within (i) and (ii) above) had been detected, liability by the contractor had been established and the only question is the amount of damages to be assessed. Nothing in construction law is as simple as that. Where the contract does not expressly give the contractor any design liability and the nature of the works is set out in detail in bills of quantities and drawings, then there is at least a strong argument for a builder to say that although the product does not work, he was not at fault since he simply constructed precisely what he had been told to do in accordance with the bills, drawings and the other information given to him. As a general principle, a builder ought not to be liable if he simply builds exactly what he was told to do. However, virtually no contract completely defines the work to be done and in the majority of cases, there is an element of choice to be exercised by the builder over the use of materials and the nature of the work to be done. The contractor may unwittingly be taking on a design liability and the argument “I did exactly what you asked me to do” is not always as cast iron as it appears to be."

He is the author of Irish Peacock & Scarlet Marquess, the first unabridged publication of the famous libel trial.1. ' Oscar' is the best-known 'Wilde'True, but unfairly so. His father, Sir William, was a remarkable Dublin doctor whose medical work on the 1851 and 1861 censuses earned him his knighthood, and is still referred to today as essential source material for 19th century Irish history. Sir William also published important contributions to the study of Celtic antiquities and Irish folklore. Oscar's mother, Jane, was a prominent Irish Nationalist and poet who was nearly imprisoned for her inflammatory anti-English writing in 1848. As Oscar would write from prison in 1897: \"\"She and my father had bequeathed me a name they had made noble and honoured not merely in literature, art, archaeology and science, but in the public history of my own country in its evolution as a nation. \"\"2. He was homosexual from his schooldays This is most unlikely, to judge from his correspondence. He seems to have been infatuated with Florence Balcombe (who later married Bram Stoker) for two years until he left Oxford in 1878, and had previously flirted with other young women in Dublin."

The law on providing a specimen The law regarding the offence of failing to provide a test specimen is governed by the Road Traffic Act 1988. There are three separate types of offence that can be committed with regards to failure to provide a specimen:1. Failure to participate in a preliminary test This applies if you refuse to participate in a roadside breathalyser test or sobriety test when asked by a uniformed police officer. The punishment for failing to co operate in a preliminary test is four penalty points added to your licence for four years, or a driving disqualification and also up to a £1000 fine.2. Failure to provide an evidential specimen for testing An evidential specimen is required when you are detained in connection with a drink or drug drive offence and is conducted at a police station after an arrest has been made.

What is the \"\"Code Of Service Discipline\"\"? The Code of Service Discipline (CSD) is the basis of the Canadian Forces (CF) military justice system. The CSD is designed to assist military commanders in maintaining discipline, efficiency, and morale within the CF. It is found in Part III of the National Defence Act (NDA). The CSD:sets out who is subject to the military justice systemestablishes service offences for which a person can be chargedestablishes who has the authority to arrest and hold CF members in custodyestablishes service tribunals and their jurisdiction to conduct trials of persons charged with service offencesestablishes processes for the review and appeal of findings and sentence after trial. Why do we have a CSD? The need for a separate justice system to enforce disciplinary standards in the military has a history that dates back to the earliest organized military forces. More recently, the Supreme Court of Canada, in the 1992 Généreux case, recognized the continuing need for a separate system of military justice. The Court stated that Canada depends on the CF to defend against threats to our security and the military must be able to enforce discipline effectively and efficiently in order to maintain its readiness."

The doctrine involved a restrictive approach to the interpretation of the specific powers of the Federal Parliament to preserve the powers that were intended to be left to the States. The doctrine was challenged by the new appointments to the Court in 1906 and was ultimately abandoned by the High Court in 1920 in the Engineers' Case, [1] replaced by an approach to interpretation that emphasised the text rather than the context of the Constitution.

The constitutional convention held in Adelaide in 1897, passed a resolution that, as the first condition for the creation of a federal government, \"\"the powers, privileges and territories of the several existing colonies shall remain intact, except in respect of such surrenders as may be agreed upon to secure uniformity of law and administration in matters of common concern.\"\" The intention of the framers of the Australian Constitution has been said to be \"\"to create a federal government, albeit of limited jurisdiction, which would be responsive to the popular will in specified matters of national concern and to superimpose it upon existing colonial or state governments which were seen as each adequately responsive to the popular will within their respective territorial constituencies.\"\" [ 2]One of the tasks facing the inaugural High Court was to establish its reputation and in so doing to win the confidence of the Australian people. [ 3] Another was to resolve \"\"constitutional loose ends\"\" about the nature of the federal system and the legislative powers of the new Commonwealth that remained unresolved following the debates in the constitutional conventions. [ 4]For the first two decades, the High Court stayed reasonably true to the \"\"co-ordinate\"\" vision of the framers in which the Commonwealth and the States were both financially and politically independent within their own spheres of responsibility. [ 5] The High Court rejected Commonwealth government attempts to extend its authority into what were perceived as areas of State jurisdiction."

There are many couples who decide not to divorce but you should carefully consider your options with a solicitor. It is commonplace to make a Deed of Separation to record any agreement regarding financial matters, children and plans to divorce or not. Care needs to be taken before signing any document as this could be relied upon if a divorce takes place at a later date. If you have both received legal advice, the court would prefer not to overturn the agreement at a later date provided that you had both been honest and there has not been any change in your circumstances. When you are living apart, you are classed as separated by the Inland Revenue and by the Benefits Agency. Is there an alternative to divorce? Yes, this is a Judicial Separation. This is not so common but could be considered when there are religious objections to divorce."

If you plead guilty then that is the end of the matter and the Judge (and it will be a Judge alone in the District Court) will sentence you or adjourn the matter to have community service or probation reports prepared before sentencing. If however on your first occasion before the Court you plead not guilty then the matter will be adjourned and your solicitor will ask the Judge for a hearing date and to make an order for him/her to be furnished with the evidence that will be used to try to secure your conviction. This can simply be a précis of the evidence or a Gary Doyle order but whichever order is made your solicitor will be entitled to receive Garda statements, custody records (if any), and videotape evidence (if any). Your case will also be given a date for trial.

If there is a solicitor involved for the State then he/she will carry out a direct examination of all of the state’s witnesses. Your solicitor will then cross examine the state’s witnesses and attempt to raise doubts about their version of events to raise a reasonable doubt in the mind of the Judge. Your solicitor will then make a submission to the Judge that based on the evidence heard you have no case to answer and ask the Judge to dismiss the case. At this point if the Judge does indeed decide that you have a case to answer having listened to the State’s case then your solicitor will mount your defence by calling any witnesses that will be useful to your case and carry out a direct examination."

"text": "There are four different types of law, criminal, civil, common and statuate. In this first task I will explain briefly each one. Extracts from this document... Introduction Task 1 There are four different types of law, criminal, civil, common and statuate. In this first task I will explain briefly each one: Criminal Law: This is the kind of law that the police enforce. Murder, assault, robbery and rape are all included within the boundaries of criminal law. A good way in which to summarise which offences come under criminal law is 'an offence which is seen as being against everybody, even though it is not'. For example if a car is stolen, then the theft is against the individual, but it threatens all car owners because they might have their car stolen. Because the view is taken that everybody is threatened by the crime, criminal law is dealt with by the public services and not by private layers or investigators. Civil Law: Civil law has many different areas enclosed in it. Examples that come under this law are legal rights, such as a right to an education or to a trade union membership and divorce problems, such as how the furniture is split between the couple and who receives custody of the children."

"text": "\"Closed Crawlspaces A properly constructed crawlspace should be clean, free of moisture, and free of potential allergens and contaminants that will rise into the house with the air from the crawlspace. That probably doesn't sound like a description of the crawlspace currently under your house!Unfortunately until recently, almost all the crawlspaces built have vents placed in the walls in an effort to allow air to \"\"ventilate\"\" the crawlspace and dry them out. Although this seems intuitive, it doesn't follow the laws of physics. Humidity is relative (hence the term \"\"relative humidity\"\" ). In short, warm air can hold more water in suspension than cold air can. So if you have 90 degree air at 70% humidity (typical summer conditions), and cool it down to 70 degrees (typical crawlspace temperature), the humidity level in that same air changes to 100%. While your crawlspace may not look as bad as the one in this picture, the mechanism described above is still what is happening. Research studies using tracer gas have shown that about 40% of the crawlspace air enters the house. Aside from any moisture issues the affect of this on your indoor air quality is significant, especially for anyone in the home who suffers from allergies, asthma, or any other respiratory issues. The only path to a truly dry and healthy crawl space is to seal it entirely form the ground and outside air."

"text": "Dehumidifier Basics Prev NEXTImagine enjoying a soda during a particularly warm day. When you pick up the can, you might notice that it's wet -- there's moisture on the outside. Why is that? As air loses heat, it also begins to lose its ability to retain moisture; the colder surface pulls and collects water from the warmer air, creating condensation. Your dehumidifier does pretty much the same thing. Most dehumidifiers can be broken down into five component parts: Fan Compressor -- This compresses and expands a refrigerant gas like freon to cool the dehumidifier's coils. ( See How Air Conditioners Work for a more detailed explanation of this cycle. ) Reheater -- This captures and collects heat that the cooling process generates. Compressor cooling coils Reservoir How do all these parts fit together to pull moisture from the air? It's fairly simple, but very effective: A fan collects air from the surrounding area and pulls it into the dehumidifier."

I’m not talking about its physical size, but its capacity and effectiveness at removing excess moisture although the two usually go hand in hand. Maybe you need a dehumidifier for your basement or bedroom? Perhaps you’re trying to eradicate mold and mildew in the crawl space of your home? Of course, all of these rooms in your home generally differ in size, so on this page of my site (as you might have guessed) I’m going to focus on how to find the right size dehumidifier. Check out the Capacity Like I said the term “size” does not apply to the dimensions of a dehumidifier, but rather its capacity or how many pints of water it’s capable of removing from the air during a 24 hour period. The ones that have larger capacities do tend to be a bit bulkier, but it’s not a hard and fast rule. Measure the Square Footage of Your Home The capacity is usually given out for a specific number of square feet. Unless you skipped elementary school, measuring the square footage of your home shouldn’t be a problem."

Bailes III, Ph DImage 1 of 5How do you deal with the air in a crawl space? In a humid climate, it's best to encapsulate the crawl space. Then you need to do something to dry the air. If you have a home with a crawl space — or are building or buying one — you have several options on what to do with that particular foundation type. Most crawl spaces are vented to the outdoors, but over the past decade, encapsulating the crawl space (as shown in the photo here) has gained favor among builders of green and energy efficient homes. It's often seen as the best way to eliminate the moisture problems that often result from vented crawl spaces. But what do you do about the air down there? Before we address that question, however, let me point out that encapsulated crawl spaces are great for humid climates, like the Southeastern U. S. In a dry climate, however, it may or not be worth the cost to encapsulate. So, as always, do what's most suitable for your climate."

The hot humid air that enters the dehumidifier condenses on these cool coils. This leaves the air that exhausts out of the dehumidifier still warm but drier than when it entered. Desiccant dehumidifiers work quite differently. Instead of using condensation (on cold evaporator coils) to remove humidity from air, desiccant dehumidifiers use a chemical (called a desiccant) to do so. We’ll discuss the ins and outs of exactly how a desiccant dehumidifier works in much greater detail later on in this guide. For now, let’s take a look at the four different types of desiccant dehumidifiers and the strengths and weaknesses of each. Types of Desiccant Dehumidifiers1.

"text": "Unlike an air conditioner, a dehumidifier does not cool the air. . Dehumidifiers remove some of the moisture from damp air. They help dry out musty, damp basements or can make a room feel more comfortable during humid weather if an air conditioner isn't available. What It Does A dehumidifier works much like an air conditioner, drawing moisture out of the air quickly and collecting it, usually in a pan within the dehumidifier. Many models also offer a hose connection to send the water directly into a drain so you don't have to empty the unit yourself. Pump-based versions are also available. The main difference between an air conditioner and a dehumidifier is that an air conditioner blows out cool, dry air as it removes moisture from the space, while a dehumidifier is not designed to refrigerate the air and discharges warm air. Still, the air may feel cooler and more comfortable in a hot room simply due to less humidity after using the dehumidifier. When and Where to Use a Dehumidifier A dehumidifier helps keep the humidity level comfortable in your home. It may be used during humid weather, or in areas that smell musty or show signs of mold and mildew."

We hear about the effect humidity exerts on comfort frequently, when outdoor vacationers describe the “dry cold” of Colorado mountain air in the winter or the sweltering “muggy heat” of Houston or Miami in the summertime. From our research on the many indoor air quality topics, we will make a general observation first: the factors that affect indoor air quality interact, sometimes in ways that can be surprising. The overall goal of using humidity control equipment should be to maintain the optimum level of indoor humidity without adversely affecting some other factor. To do this, you must take your indoor environment into account, including the “envelope” of your home and your HVAC equipment. Within the topic of humidity control, you will find listings from room size dehumidifiers and humidifiers to “whole house” models and on to industrial capacity units. For all these reasons, we recommend that you check with your local air conditioning company or indoor air quality professional to confirm that you have a well thought out, integrated plan for indoor air quality before initiating specific changes. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the recommended humidity for indoor environments should range between 30% and 50% relative humidity. The term “relative humidity” simply means the amount of water vapor the air contains compared to the maximum amount it could hold at any given temperature. Indoor humidity can be controlled in two ways: it can be lowered with a properly sized and functioning air conditioning system (in some situations assisted with the use of a dehumidifier); or humidity can be raised by using a humidifier."

A: Quick Answer The green anaconda is considered to be one of the largest species of snakes in the world, with some specimens reaching 29 feet in length and weighing as much as 550 pounds. Although reticulated pythons can grow longer, experts contend that the green anaconda is significantly heavier. Continue Reading Keep Learning How big can a snake grow? What is the largest snake?

Credit: Matt Jeppson | Shutterstock Copperhead snakes are some of the more commonly seen North American snakes. They're also the most likely to bite, although their venom is relatively mild, and their bites are rarely fatal for humans. These snakes get their name, fittingly, from their copper-red heads, according to the biology department at Pennsylvania State University. Some other snakes are referred to as copperheads, which is a common (nonscientific) name. Water moccasins (cottonmouths), radiated rat snakes, Australian copperheads and sharp-nosed pit vipers are all sometimes called copperheads, but these are different species from the North American copperhead ( Agkistrodon contortrix ). Copperheads are pit vipers, like rattlesnakes and water moccasins. Pit vipers have \"\"heat-sensory pits between eye and nostril on each side of head,\"\" which are able to detect minute differences in temperatures so that the snakes can accurately strike the source of heat, which is often potential prey. Copperhead \"\"behavior is very much like that of most other pit vipers,\"\" said herpetologist Jeff Beane, collections manager of amphibians and reptiles at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences. Characteristics Copperheads are medium-size snakes, averaging between 2 and 3 feet (0.6 to 0.9 meters) in length."

They are generally olive green to brown, although they may be somehwhat yellow or have slight saddle-like splotches off red. They have vertical pupils and a large head relative to their body. This species is mildly venomous. They are a tropical species that lives in trees and shrubs but may also be found in grasslands. Brown tree snakes prey nocturnally on small animals, including mammals, birds, and lizards. They also eat the eggs of birds and lizards. PATHWAYS/HISTORY: This species is native to Indo-Pacific islands including New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, northern and eastern Australia and eastern Indonesia. They are well estabished in Guam where they probably arrived via cargo ships during World War II. Brown tree snakes have been reportedly sighted (but not established) in Hawaii, Texas, and Oklahoma."

A homeowner in Earville, Australia called Cairns Snake Catchers, a snake removal service because there was a snake on her front porch, according to the Daily Mail Australia. When snake catcher Matt Hagan arrived, he found a dead 1.5 meter brown tree snake with its fangs still embedded into its back. Intrigued, Hagan took the dead snake to a vet in an effort to try and determine what killed the snake. The only thing that the vet could find with the snake was swelling near the bite area and speculated that the snake got bit by something. The vet told Hagan that when snakes experience trauma, they try and bite around the area. In this case the brown tree snake may have died from its own venom after biting the wound area.

Credit: Matt Jeppson | Shutterstock The name brown snake refers to two different genera of snakes, found on two different continents. If you are in North America, brown snake is the common name for Storeria, a small, shy, nonvenomous snake. If you are in Australia, Papua New Guinea or West Papua, brown snake is the common name for Pseudonaja, a genus of highly venomous snakes that includes the Eastern brown snake, considered the second most venomous land snake in the world, according to Australia’s Billabong Sanctuary . Storeria (North American brown snake)Physical characteristics In North America, “brown snakes are small, slender snakes and are typically brown to reddish-brown or gray in coloration,” said Sara Viernum, Wisconsin-based founder of The Wandering Herpetologist. They have “two parallel rows of dark spots bordering a light stripe down their backs [as well as] pale venters with small dark spots along the edges.” ( Venter is a zoological term for underside; in this case, it refers to the snake’s belly. ) North American brown snakes are petite, ranging between 10 and 21 inches [25 to 53 centimeters] in length, said Viernum. “ Juveniles have a yellowish collar around their necks and are usually darker in coloration than adults with a faintly spotted back pattern. ”These harmless brown snakes are often mistaken for copperheads and killed when they are spotted in suburban areas."

"text": "Tiny Snakes Publish Date : May 02, 2007Revised Date : Nov 30, 2010Tom R. Johnson Most snake species native to Missouri are from 2 to 5 feet long—nose to tip of tail—but we also have many snake species that stay tiny throughout their lives. The shy flat-headed snake, for example, seldom grows longer than 7 inches, and a “gigantic” prairie ring-necked snake might measure just over a foot long. People sometimes believe that any small snake they encounter is just a “baby snake.” If it has even a bit of red, brown or tan coloring they might think it is a baby copperhead, which to them seems to justify killing it. While it’s never a good idea to kill any snake that doesn’t present a clear danger to people, killing small snakes that have no potential to harm us is certainly unnecessary. Missouri’s group of small snakes are generally shy and reclusive. None of them are a threat to people. Even the few that inject venom through tiny fangs to subdue small prey cannot pierce human skin. With a little time and study you can learn to recognize Missouri’s tiny snakes. Many of them have attractive colors and patterns, as well as fascinating life histories, making them great candidates for nature study."

"text": "What Does a Copperhead Snake Look Like? Copperhead snake facts, and what a copperhead snake looks like - The copperhead snake gets its name from the pronounced reddish coloration on the top of its head. Unlike other vipers, this animal has a distinctive neck. It is usually has a light brown base color and darker, irregular bands around the body. The copperhead lives mostly in forested regions, using the cover of leaves on the forest floor for camouflage. This snake had branched out to other regions, and can be found along waterways and in rocky territory. For years, people were under the impression that the bite from a copperhead snake was fatal. It is possible for the snake to inject enough venom to kill a human; however, this scenario almost never happens. When a copperhead snakes bites, it is because the animal is fearful. It will produce enough venom in the bite to injure it’s attacker and buy the snake time to escape."

"text": "The Brown Tree Snake Of Guam The Brown Tree snake (Boiga irregularis) is an interesting snake that has caught a lot of news headlines over the past decade. It’s a rear fanged colubrid snake endemic to the Northern coast of Australia, Papua New Guinea, and the Islands in northwestern Melanesia. It’s venom is thought to be both neurotoxic and cytotoxic, but because of the small teeth as well as the rear fanged nature of the venom delivery it’s rarely a threat to humans. They are one of roughly 25 species of Boiga commonly known as “cat eyed snakes”. They are highly arboreal spending most of their time in the canopy of the rainforest feeding on birds, lizards, bats and a variety of small rodents. They are an extremely slender snake reaching up to six feet, but more commonly measured at between three and four feet in length. Now I could go on about the characteristics of the Brown snake for quite a while seeing as I’m a fan of all snakes, but that’s not what’s made this interesting snake such a celebrity over the years. The rise to fame started just shortly after WWII when inadvertently they were introduced to the small military Island of Guam. Many believe that they came in on freighters carrying supplies for the troops, and soon after their population exploded. This was most likely because of the abundance of food sources on the Island, which came mainly in the form of native birds such as the Mariana Fruit Dove, the Guam Flycather, the Rufous Fantial and the Micronesian Mysomela."

Scientists imported it from South America via Hawaii in 1935 to control insect pests in sugar cane fields (see box “Biological control—it’s not evolution”). Starting with 102 individuals, the toads have moved far from their initial east-coast beachhead. Moving north, south and west, they now occupy over a million square kilometres and are estimated to number over 200 million. A major factor in their success is a type of chemical warfare. The toad’s parotoid gland contains a powerful poison, bufotoxin, such that even if one of these invaders has been killed, it can cost the life of the animal that attacked it. This has devastated the local fauna. Media outlets reporting on this war seem to be engaged, perhaps unwittingly, in another war—that of evolutionary propaganda. The propaganda war It is not atoms-to-amphibians-to-archaeologists evolution Media soundbites in this war have included how cane toads are “evolving longer legs to speed their invasion”; 1 are “evolving” to be bigger, stronger, faster; 2 and evolving “quickly”. 3 We are told that we should control them as quickly as possible before they “evolve into a more dangerous adversary.”"

Corn snakes are fairly calm and easy to care for. They are popular as pets. But watch out, corn snake owners — these elegant serpents are skilled at escaping from their homes. There are a few different ideas about how the corn snake got its name. According to the Smithsonian National Zoological Park, corn snakes' belly markings look similar to the kernel pattern on Indian corn. The Animal Diversity Web (ADW), a database maintained by the Museum of Zoology at the University of Michigan, reports that the corn snake's name comes from the fact that it can often be found in corn and other crop fields, while Davidson College's Herps of North Carolina says the name stems from the fact that corn snakes often live in barns where rats come to feed on corn and other grains."

"text": "\"The deltoid muscle is the muscle that gives the shoulder its rounded shape. Many mammals have this muscle, as the design is very efficient, and this muscle is responsible for the abduction of the shoulder and some of the rotation of the arm or limb. In humans, the deltoids are a common target of weight training, with people engaging in activities like presses to develop and strengthen them. In people with very well defined musculature and low body fat, the deltoid is often highly visible on the shoulder and upper arm. This muscle has three heads. The posterior deltoid originates at the scapula, while the anterior and lateral deltoids connect with the collarbone. The other end of the muscle attaches to the humerus, the armbone. Structurally, the muscles resemble triangles, or the Greek letter Δ (delta). The primary function of this muscle is to abduct the shoulder. When people rotate a shoulder, the deltoid muscle does much of the work, guiding and stabilizing the movement."

It’s more a matter of preference, what your personal goals are, and what you’re trying to achieve. To maximize your results, do both types of chest presses, since they both work almost all the same muscles but hit the muscle in slightly different ways. Let’s look at each of these options. The table below shows that both incline bench presses and flat bench chest presses work an array of chest muscles."

You can read it now and see why it will be beneficial to know your schedule. The split system of training, in general, has been around almost as long as bodybuilding itself. Nonetheless, most beginners train, or at least are taught to train on a full body routine three times a week, usually M-W-F. This may be ok for learning the exercises and developing an initial foundation, but it has real flaws as far as promoting muscle gains. Why? Because as you gain experience and begin to train with greater levels of intensity, you find the workload of a full body routine will become overwhelming. In other words, you just can't train every body part with real intensity and a meaningful number of sets. This is where split routine come in.

Well, the answer to that question, as I'll soon show you, is \"\"Plenty\"\"! Since a recent study has revealed seven segments of the deltoid – not just three – and the ball and socket configuration of the glenohumeral joint allows more motion to occur at the shoulder than any other joint in the body (up to 16,000 positions for the arm), more areas can and should be stimulated. ( 26, 21,17)Thus, it's important to use many different angles when performing your laterals if you really want to add some size and width to those delts! So, let's get to it. Fiber Type Distribution There's a low percentage of fast-twitch (FT) fibers in the medial deltoid, averaging 36% FT and 57% slow-twitch (ST). ( 25, 4) And, according to Tesch and Larsson, \"\"Fiber-type distribution pattern in present bodybuilders tends to resemble the muscle structural profile of endurance athletes. The bodybuilders did exhibit relatively high muscular endurance, which is consistent with the observed low percentage of high-glycolytic, fatigable FTb fibers.\"\" ( 25)Yet, paradoxically, the bipennate structure of the medial deltoid with five to seven tendons allows for powerful contractions."

A common abduction exercise is the lateral dumbbell raise. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Shoulder Joint Structure Your shoulder joint is a ball and socket structure formed by the upper head of the humerus, or upper arm bone, and the scapula. This unique structure allows for a broad spectrum of movement, making the shoulder joint the most mobile joint in the body. Many muscles and bony structures work together to produce movement of the arm from the shoulder joint. During abduction, movement is initially generated by the rotator cuff, then carried out by the deltoid muscle. Rotator Cuff Muscles The rotator cuff is a set of four muscles that serve to stabilize and rotate the shoulder, attached by strong tendons to the upper head of the humerus. During abduction, the supraspinatous and infraspinaoous muscles abduct and rotate the head of the humerus. The subscapularis abducts and depresses the head of the humerus to prevent impingement on the overhanging acromion that protrudes from the scapula. The long head of the biceps, which attaches to the scapula, also presses down on the humeral head as it abducts."

A demotion is a compulsory reduction in an employee 's rank or job title within the organizational hierarchy of a company, public service department, or other body, unless there is no reduction in pay. [ 1] A demotion may also lead to the loss of other privileges associated with a more senior rank and/or a reduction in salary or benefits. An employee may be demoted for violating the rules of the organization by a behavior such as excessive lateness, misconduct, or negligence. In some cases, an employee may be demoted as an alternative to being laid off, if the employee has poor job performance or if the company is facing a financial crisis. A move to a position at the same rank or level elsewhere in the organization is called a lateral move or deployment. A voluntary move to a lower level is also a deployment as it is not a compulsory reduction in level.

"text": "Nirav Bhardwaj, Player Development at Angels Baseball Answered Aug 30, 2011Here is the financial breakdown from what I have learned: First let's discuss the situation for when a player is in the minor leagues. Minor league players are payed a salary which depends on the level they are currently playing in. For example: Rookie ball players can make around $1200 per month while most players in AAA (the highest level of the minor league) can make around $2000-2500 per month. For major league players, the minimum salary in 2011 is $414,000 per season. If a minor league player is called up to the majors, he will receive a prorated salary of the $414,000 minimum during his tenure on the MLB team. Let's factor in the 25-man and 40-man rosters to this: Players on the 25-man roster are eligible to play in MLB games throughout the season. The 40-man roster includes players on the 25-man roster, plus 15 additional players who are either on the disabled list or in the minor leagues. In order to be called up and play in the MLB, a player must be added to the 40-man roster. Players are generally given a raise when added to the 40-man roster. According to one source who covers the NY Yankees AA affiliate, in 2009: minor league players on the Yankees receive $30,000 in their first year on the 40-man roster and $60,000 in their second year on the roster."

"text": "\"Ancient African Writing Ancient Africa has the world's oldest and largest collection of ancient writing systems, and is home to the world's first identifiable proto-writing. Evidence of such dates to pre-historic time and can be found in various regions of the continent. However, Africa's oldest known writing system is over 6,000 years old. By contrast, continental Europe's oldest writing, Greek, was not fully in use until c. 1400 BC (a clay tablet found in Iklaina, Greece) and is largely derived from an older African script called Proto-Sinaitic. The oldest Asian writing, Proto-Cuneiform, dates to around 3000 BC (clay texts found at Jemdet Nasr). Proto-Writing (60,000 BC): How Writing Developed in Africa The purpose of writing has always been to communicate ideas, and humans have been doing so for at least 100,000 years in the form of engravings, such as those uncovered at the Blombos Cave in South Africa. Such engravings would later evolve into so-called proto-writing or identifiable symbols that were used to conveyed information but are not known to be part of language. University of Bordeaux researchers in Diepkloof, South Africa have found 60,000-year-old ostrich eggshells with symbolic patterns that are believed to communicate the names of local communities. The Wonderwerk cave paintings (c. 25,000 BC) in northern South Africa feature hundreds of unique symbols and patterns alongside images of people and wildlife. This uncovers an important link in the development of writing by modern humans."

I believe it is important to still study Coptic in aiding our understanding on how to pronounce Ancient Egyptian. If one studies the etymology of a word and looks at all the neighboring cultures and their languages around at the time it is possible to reconstruct Egyptian to a certain extent. Although people will always disagree. This etymology page was started by me years ago in hopes of reconstructing some of the words of Ancient Egyptian and has expanded greatly over the years. People have argued ever since Hieroglyphics were cracked on how to pronounced the language and the ignorance seems to be getting worse.

The Rosetta Stone, not to be confused with the language learning software, is a fragment of a granite-like rock with a text carved in three different languages. It was found by troops of Napoleon in 1799 in the wall of a fort in the city of Rosetta (Rashid in Arabic), Egypt, which is near Alexandria. It is about 45 inches high. 28.5 inches wide, and 11 inches thick, weighing in at about About ¾ of a ton (1676 pounds - our replica weighs 90-95 pounds). It is a broken piece of granodiorite stone that was originally part of a 5-6 ft. tall stela, or column, located in a temple elsewhere in the Nile Delta. The stone passed into British hands and was taken to England. It is now housed in the British Museum in London, where it is the most popular attraction in the museum. The writing on the stone is a decree issued jointly by the Pharaoh, Ptolemy V Epiphanes (205-180 BC), and a council of Egyptian priests."

Known in ancient Egyptian as the “language of the gods” and said to have been created by the god of knowledge Thoth, hieroglyphs were vital in the fulfilment of royal duties and were used by powerful pharaohs and their scribes to record the achievements of their reign. Today, millions of hieroglyphs in sacred texts, sarcophagi, tombs, and monuments remain as memories of a highly civilized, bygone era. The ancient Egyptian writing system is a pictorial script with a huge number of characters: 24 of which stand for what would be recognized as letters, others stand for complete words or combinations of consonants. There are between 700 and 800 basic symbols called glyphs and there is no punctuation or indication of where words or sentences begin or end. The glyphs are usually read from right to left, top to bottom and do not use spaces or punctuations. On the walls of temples and tombs in Egypt, they generally appear in columns.

While leaving a higher-paying job to take one that pays much less may not seem appealing, sometimes it makes sense. Perhaps an overall evaluation of your current job allows you to see weaknesses that outweigh the compensation you receive and lead you to seek out job opportunities that don't pay as well. In addition, sometimes situations beyond your control dictate what you must do in terms of job status, which can result in lower pay. Career Change If you decide that you no longer want to stay in the career field you are in, your next step is to make a career change. If you have no experience in the field you are changing to, you will likely experience a drop in compensation. For instance, a successful realtor may be tired of the fierce competition and the long hours in her field and decide to become a teacher. The realtor may experience a significant drop in salary when entering the teaching profession, because teacher salary scales are often based on experience. Demotion Unfortunately, sometimes employers decide to demote employees based on performance or other factors. If you are not in a position to move, such as if you have a spouse with a well-paying job or a family that you can't uproot easily, you may have to accept the demotion at the lower pay rate."

These are in fact the servers that where upgraded to Windows 2008 R2 some 16 months ago right after Windows 2008 R2 went RTM. See this blog post about that: https://blog.workinghardinit.work/2010/01/22/dell-pe1850-domain-controller-upgrade-to-windows-2008-r2/. For several reasons not all domain controllers or core infrastructure servers should be virtualized so this was not just a matter or doing a P2V migration and be done with it. That would have made it very easy as not only are they already running on the latest Windows version but they had some extra requirements. They wanted to preserve the server names and IP addresses for these servers. Normally DHCP takes care of the DNS servers for clients. Servers that have static IP addresses without using DHCP reservations can be dealt with via scripting. But al lots of devices that need a DNS Server are a pain to deal with. There are devices that do not accept FQDNs, can’t be DCHP clients. Often a management solution for settings the IP configurations on hardware devices is not in place even when does tools exists (i.e. for network switches)."

Then, in 1799, the discovery of the most famous piece of rock in archaeology unravelled the secrets of the script. On this page A forgotten script The Rosetta Stone The Phenomenon Young Jean-François Champollion Cracking the code Find out more Print this page A forgotten script Hieroglyphs dominated the landscape of the Egyptian civilisation. These elaborate symbols were ideal for inscriptions on the walls of majestic temples and monuments, and indeed the Greek word hieroglyphica means 'sacred carvings', but they were too fussy for day-to-day scribbling, so other scripts were evolved in Egypt in parallel. These were the 'hieratic' and 'demotic' scripts, which can crudely be thought of as merely different fonts of the hieroglyphic alphabet. The rise of Christianity was responsible for the extinction of Egyptian scripts... Then, towards the end of the fourth century AD, within a generation, the Egyptian scripts vanished. The last datable examples of ancient Egyptian writing are found on the island of Philae, where a hieroglyphic temple inscription was carved in AD 394 and where a piece of demotic graffiti has been dated to 450 AD. The rise of Christianity was responsible for the extinction of Egyptian scripts, outlawing their use in order to eradicate any link with Egypt's pagan past. Ancient Egyptian Coptic script © The ancient scripts were replaced with 'Coptic', a script consisting of 24 letters from the Greek alphabet supplemented by six demotic characters used for Egyptian sounds not expressed in Greek. The ancient Egyptian language continued to be spoken, and evolved into what became known as the Coptic language, but in due course both the Coptic language and script were displaced by the spread of Arabic in the 11th century."

In a new interview, Sculley tells his side of the story, which fits with the previously known facts. ‘Steve was never actually fired from Apple, he was demoted from head of the Macintosh division,’ Sculley said during a recently-released December 2011 interview with David Greelish, computer historian and President of the Atlanta Historical Computing Society. The interview may be listened to or downloaded here. Sculley expresses regret over how the incident — a boardroom battle between the two men over marketing strategy — developed into one of the defining moments in the history of the personal computer industry. The May 24, 1985 demotion occurred because of a dispute with Jobs over Sculley’s plan to continue placing the Apple II ahead of Macintosh in Apple’s product lineup. Jobs would resign from Apple five months later. According to Sculley, Jobs wanted to lower the price of the Macintosh, introduced in January, 1984, while continuing heavy advertising necessary to promote the new computer."

Single Dental Implant Average Cost: $2,488 Abutment, Implant and Crown Average Cost: $4,263E-mail Post Tweet Comments (353)A dental implant functions as an artificial root to anchor a replacement tooth or teeth. A small titanium post is surgically implanted in the jawbone, and as part of the healing process it bonds with the bone. A metal abutment is connected to the implant, and then a crown, bridge or denture is attached to the abutment. The work is typically done in stages, often with separate prices for the implant surgery, the abutment placement and the replacement tooth or teeth. There may also be a charge for a temporary \"\"flipper\"\" tooth while the jaw heals after surgery. Typical costs: A single implant typically costs $2,400-$3,000, but can be $4,000-$10,000 or more if additional procedures like extractions, bone grafts, tissue grafts or a sinus lift are needed. Cost Helper readers report paying $1,000-$5,000 for an implant with an average cost of $2,488. Placing an abutment and a dental crown on a single implant typically adds $500-$3,000 to the cost of just the implant, for a total of $1,500-$13,000 or more.

"text": "How Are Dental Implants Placed? The dental expert will first assess your jaw to see if you have enough bone to support the implant, otherwise the bone in the area must be built up before the implanting process begins. This procedure is called augmentation, where a bone graft is carried out. If you need bone grafting, it will take 4 to 8 months to heal before having the implant in your jawbone. During the healing time, you can wear a bridge or dentures so you can still eat and carry on with your daily activities. Most implants consist of a two-step procedure, although the newer ones can be placed in a one-step process. The patient is given pain medicine before the start of the procedure. The dentist will then use local anaesthesia to numb the gum area before continuing with the rest of the procedure. The dental surgeon will make a small cut into the gum in order to expose the bone before drilling a hole and placing the implant inside the hole. An x-ray is taken to make sure the implant is exactly where it needs to be."

To answer this rather intricate question a London dentist has written a blog post detailing how the cost of a dental implant is made up and what you could save, or not save, by going abroad. What is involved in the cost of dental implant? The cost of a dental implant is made up of the following components: Your dental surgeon’s time to prepare the diagnostics, analysis and preparation work prior to the implant. Training courses for the team to ensure they know exactly how the dental implants work. The dental implant itself, this is a precision made piece of engineering manufactured to tolerances of a fraction of a millimetre. The Crown which goes on top of the dental implant made by a highly skilled dental technician. The follow-up and after-care provided by the dentist to ensure that the dental implant integrates into the bone and heals properly.

The answer might surprise you: A dental implant may cost no more than other treatments to restore a tooth. A dental implant may even cost less than other tooth replacement options. Why? Because a dental implant typically lasts longer if you use adental implant dentist who has proven skills, education and training ( find one near you ). For example, dental implants typically cost less than a dental bridge long term because a bridge has higher maintenance costs. A dentist who is experienced in tooth replacement can explain the reasons. A note of caution before we get into the implant cost details: if someone gives you a price without seeing your mouth first, be wary. Dental implants are customized for your mouth."

"text": "Complete guide on dental implant cost Dental implants cost is certainly one of the most important criteria to check when considering a tooth replacement by a teeth implant for esthetic or medical reasons. Implant dentistry remains by far the best method to replace missing teeth, because implants give you permanent results that far outweigh the other dental alternative such as dental bridges or removable dentures. But this superiority has a price as you will find out in this complete guide regarding tooth implant cost per tooth and for full mouth. Contents1 Dental implant cost : what is the average cost of dental implants?2 The 6 Factors that influence Dental Implants Cost2.1 The 1st factor: dental implant material quality2.2 The 2nd factor: the kind of teeth to be replaced2.3 The 3rd factor: your dentist or dental surgeon expertise, experience, popularity2.4 The 4th factor: Your dentist location2.5 The 5th factor: Additional professionals involved2.6 The 6th factor: What most people forget… leading to bad surprises3 Insurance coverage of Dental Implants: check the 4 fine print limits.4 Dental Implants prices by country Dental implant cost : what is the average cost of dental implants? Please note the prices indicated from our research may differ from those of your chosen dental specialist based on many factors ( usually regarding the upper range…. ), however, you will have a pretty good idea of the necessary budget for dental implants. Single tooth implant cost In order to understand the cost of implants below, you need to remember each implant is composed of 3 elements: the implant, the abutment and the crown. ( check here our 101 guide on implants if necessary)Dental implant = implant + abutment + crown3 parts for a dental implant So, any price you get is usually the total amount of those 3 parts. A single dental implant will cost you anywhere between $ 1 500 up to $ 6 700 ! Of course, the dental implants cost per tooth depends on many factors such as the nature of the missing tooth: front tooth implant cost is usually higher than the cost of a back tooth implant because front teeth are often trickier to restore due to the small space involved , and because the abutment ( what connect the implant to the crown) for these front teeth is usually more expensive than the standard sized and angled abutments from the implant company."

While cost can be a determining factor no matter the medical or dental procedure, mini dental implants provide many benefits that outweigh their cost. If you are considering dental implantation for replacing broken, damaged, decayed or missing teeth, consider all of the procedural benefits before basing your decision on cost. More often than not, Dallas, TX residents who are interested in mini dental implants are on a limited budget, so the upfront cost can be a cause for worry. But at Dental Implant Dentist, mini dental implants can sometimes be up to 60% cheaper than their traditional counterparts. Here are a few reasons why. When Dental Implant Dentist places the mini dental implants, there is no invasive surgery involved. The procedure often only takes a single visit to complete, only a local anesthetic is necessary, and the small incisions made in the gum line do not require stitches. Traditional dental implants take several procedures to place, may require stitches and downtime and do not provide immediate implant use. Placing mini dental implants in a single treatment is a mildly invasive procedure that does not require downtime."

"text": "“How Much Do Dental Implants Cost?”This a question we get asked all the time at Benchmark Dental in both of our offices and I wish there was a simple answer. Tooth replacement with dental implants is a very person-specific procedure, it is difficult to quote a price without examining you and determining your specific needs. Many conditions can impact the total cost of a successful implant procedure. Conditions that impact the Cost of Dental Implants: Does the existing tooth (or teeth) need to be extracted or is it already out? Extraction can vary in cost depending on the location of the tooth, its condition, and the methods required to remove it. Is there a need for bone grafting procedures? Grafting is often a necessary prerequisite to implants, and can range in price from $350 to $2000 depending on the site, techniques requierd, and the amount of bone graft material needed. Is there a need for cosmetic parts for the implant placement or restoration if in a cosmetic zone? Is there a need for a temporary tooth or teeth during healing time? Does the area require removal of old bridges or modification of dentures or partial dentures?"

There are many things that determine what every patient will end up paying, so if you’re considering to have dental implants placed, it would be best to see a dentist and ask for an estimate of what the cost would be. The base cost of a dental implant, is only for the implant procedure itself. When not taking additional procedures into consideration, the following variables influence the base cost of a dental implant: The expertise of the practitioner performing the implant: While more experienced practitioners are usually also rather more expensive, going to the most qualified professional will minimize the risks involved. Materials used: Implants can be made from either titanium or zirconium. Both your choice of materials and the quality of the materials used will affect the price. Preparation procedures, such as tooth extraction or bone grafting: Some patients need more preparation before implants can be placed, this will increase the price somewhat. Number of implants needed: When patients need more than one or two implants, dentists are often able to use dental bridges or mount implants on dentures. This lowers the cost per tooth. Laboratory cost: Technicians making the implants don’t all charge the same amount for their work."

The dentist’s overhead, geographical location, and individual fee structure will all be calculated into the cost of the procedure. And, each patient’s physical circumstance must be evaluated as well.

"text": "What Exactly is a Dental Implant? The implant procedure has never been easier. A dental implant is a small, metallic screw which is drilled into the jaw bone to serve as a replacement for a natural tooth root. The screws are typically made of titanium or titanium alloys and are a durable, long-term treatment option when it comes to tooth replacement. Once the dental implant successfully fuses to the bone through a process called osseointegration, a prosthesis such as a crown or denture is attached to the site and can then be maintained and used as a normal tooth. The Many Benefits of Dental Implants Thinking about the procedure itself can be unnerving for most and downright frightening for some if you have no idea what to expect. But there is no need to fret! The fact of the matter is that dental implants are consistently being recommended more frequently and, as a result, becoming more affordable. That’s because people are beginning to see that they are an, “ effective, attractive, secure way to fill gaps in your smile—all while preserving your existing teeth .” Dental implants are great because they: Prevent the Loss of Bone –When a tooth is extracted or lost, the bone that surrounded the root and supported the tooth begins to disintegrate away."

When a tooth is missing, it is essential to visit your dentist to discuss the dental options for replacement. Dental bridges are utilized in dentistry to replace the missing teeth and provide a bridge that connects the adjoining teeth. The teeth on either side of the missing tooth are called abutment teeth and the replacement tooth is called the pontic (false tooth). Why are Bridges Important? Dental bridges will help restore your smile and maintain the appropriate face shape. They can also help you properly chew food, speak and place the jaws together when biting, which helps prevent other teeth in the mouth from moving out of place or drifting apart. What Type of Dental Bridges Can I Choose From? The three most common types of dental bridges include:1.

"text": "\"A bridge, also called a “fixed bridge” or a “fixed dental prosthesis,” is a dental restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth. It extends across an area that has no teeth and is typically made up of an artificial tooth fused between 2 crowns. ( A crown is a hollow, artificial tooth that fits over a natural tooth or a dental implant). The bridge is held firmly in place by your own teeth on each side of the missing one (s) or by dental implants. A bridge is permanent and cannot be removed. How a bridge is done If you have healthy teeth on each side of a missing tooth (or teeth), your dentist files down the 2 healthy teeth to prepare them for the bridge. If you don’t have healthy teeth or enough teeth to support a bridge, then dental implants may be surgically placed. A dental implant is an artificial root made of titanium metal that is inserted into the jawbone to replace the root of the natural tooth. The implant acts as an anchor to hold an artificial tooth or bridge in place. Next, your dentist makes a model of your teeth by taking impressions (molds)."

"text": "Can A Crown Be Super-Glued Back On? I’m on vacation and a crown just fell off of my back tooth. Can I just Super Glue it back on? Thanks,Jamie Dear Jamie,Super Glue has thousands of uses. It’s been used medically in place of sutures and by detectives to lift fingerprints. It’s been used around the house for repairs, for arts and crafts and to stop runs in stockings. It’s the subject of many urban legends and has been used in practical jokes. It has also been used inappropriately by people for purposes of revenge, used accidentally instead of eye drops and, yes, many people have mistakenly, though with pure intentions, glued their dental crowns back on with it. It is important to have your crown cemented back on soon because your tooth needs protection and needs the crown in place to help maintain the proper alignment of your teeth. Leaving it off can damage the tooth itself, leave it subject to breakage and/or nerve injury and will allow your teeth to shift so that the old crown will no longer fit."

Here it is explained in “layman’s terms”)So you went to the dentist with tooth-ache, expecting to leave with a dental filling, however the dentist informs you that you require a dental crown…What is a dental crown? You may have heard it referred to as a tooth crown, dental cap, dentistry crown or just crowns. And often, the public confuse dental crowns with veneers. .. but they are very different…When you have a cavity, the dentist will drill away the decayed parts of your tooth and fill it with dental filling materials in the form of a filling or inlay/overlay. They could be white fillings known as composite fillings – these are currently one of the most popular materials to used, alternatively the dentist could choose Gold, Zirconium, composite or porcelain to fill the gap. Back in the day amalgam dental fillings where very popular but its popularity has started to diminish due to the lack of esthetics , the availability of newer, better, more technically advanced materials, but mostly, due to concerns about the toxicity of the mercury that is used in this material…However, if the tooth is so badly damaged by decay that it can’t support composite fillings or an inlay, a dental crown is the next best option – its is a tooth-shaped “cap” that gets bonded over your damaged tooth to restore its natural shape and improve its appearance, to protect the tooth and to restore its size and shape… in order to do this the dentist will drill all the decay away leaving a small part of your tooth (like a little stump) to bond the dental crown on to – this process is called prepping teeth -the tooth is called a prepped tooth…Your dentist may recommend a crown to: Replace a large filling when there isn’t enough tooth remaining Attach a dental bridge Protect a weak tooth from fracturing Cover a dental implant Cover a tooth that has had root canal treatment Cover a poorly shaped or discoloured tooth Restore a fractured tooth Smile makeovers Dental crowns can be made out of a selection of different materials. Between your dentist and the Dental Laboratory, the correct material for your crown will be decided .

"text": "Temporary Cement Vs. Permanent Cement for Dental Implants Leave a reply Dental implants involve one or more artificial teeth being inserted into the jaw to fill a gap in the bite. Dental implants can be used to fill spaces where one or two teeth are missing, or to serve as an anchor for crowns, bridges and dentures where many or all of the teeth need to be replaced. Both temporary and permanent cement play a role in dental implants. Function of Cement Hy Bond - a polycarboxylate temporary cement Both temporary cement and permanent cement are used to adhere external objects, such as dental implant teeth, caps, bridges or dentures, to the natural teeth. For bridges and dentures, an anchor tooth may be chosen for the adhesive so that patients do not need to have all of their teeth cemented. Dental implants are not usually cemented to the natural teeth, and instead are actually drilled into the jawbone to become a permanent part of the jaw. Time Frame Dentists and periodontists may elect to use temporary cement to fix dental implants in place for a few days to allow patients to experience use of the new tooth before it is permanently in place. The initial use of temporary cement allows the dentist to make adjustments to the implant itself or to its position before permanently inserting the prosthetic. Features Temrex - a zinc oxide non-eugenol temporary cement Temporary cement can be used to hold dental implants in place for anywhere from a few hours to several weeks if necessary."

Missing teeth can cause a change in occlusion (bite), shifting of the teeth, temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ), speech impediments, an increased risk for periodontal disease and a greater chance of tooth decay. Dental bridges, like implants and partial dentures, are used to replace missing teeth. There are several types of fixed dental bridges (cannot be removed), including conventional fixed, cantilever and resin-bonded. Typically, conventional and cantilever bridges require shaping of the teeth surrounding a missing tooth. Crowns are then placed on the shaped teeth and attached to an artificial tooth (called a pontic). A resin-bonded bridge requires less preparation of adjacent teeth. It is often used to replace front teeth, provided that the gums are healthy and the surrounding teeth do not have extensive dental fillings.

So here’s our thought experiment. A patient presents for a porcelain-fused-to-meta l crown on a posterior tooth. On the first visit, we prepare the tooth, take the impression, and make a provisional crown in an hour. Then we see the patient for a half hour for the final insertion. We use a triple tray impression with a heavy and a light body impression material. I take a pre-operative matrix of the tooth and squirt bis-acryl into that to make my provisional."

Generally speaking, if you have lost teeth you are a candidate for dental implants. It is important that you are in good health, however, as there are some conditions and diseases that can affect whether dental implants are right for you. For example, uncontrolled diabetes, cancer, radiation to the jaws, smoking, alcoholism, or uncontrolled periodontal (gum) disease may affect whether dental implants will fuse to your bone. It is important to let your dental surgeon know all about your medical status (past and present) together with all medications you are taking, whether prescribed, alternative (herbal) or over-the-counter. Where and how implants are placed requires a detailed assessment of your overall stomato-gnathic system (“stoma” – mouth; “gnathic” – jaws), within which the teeth function. This will necessitate compiling records that include study models of your mouth and bite, and specialized radiographs (x-rays), which may include 3D scans known as computerized tomograms (CT scans). Planning with the help of computer imaging ensures that dental implants can be placed in exactly the right position in the bone. {\"\" error\"\":true,\"\"iframe\"\":true}How and why is bone lost when teeth are lost?

A tooth that is badly damaged, decayed or discolored can often be restored with a crown or cap, so that it looks indistinguishable from a natural tooth and usually it gives many years of trouble-free service. It is however possible occasionally for a crown to come unstuck (“debond”), especially if it is knocked or if you happen to bite into something hard or very sticky. The crown can come loose in the mouth or be embedded in food as you’re eating. This can be a shock if you have had the crown for a long time as you will probably have forgotten that you even had a “false” tooth at all. You are suddenly faced with a difficult and embarrassing situation if it involves a tooth at the front of the mouth, since it will be obvious to everyone!Note that this article relates to ‘permanent’ crowns (and to bridges as they are similar in nature). Temporary crowns (‘temps’),as their name would suggest, are much more prone to falling out. However, much of the advice contained here will remain true though. If a temporary crown fell out on you, in short – keep the area clean and get into your dentist as soon as you can.

Erosion is responsible for the creation of hills and valleys. It removes sediments from areas that were once glaciated, shapes the shorelines of lakes and coastlines, and transports material downslope from elevated sites. In order for erosion to occur three processes must take place: detachment, entrainment and transport . Erosion also requires a medium to move material. Wind, water, and ice are the mediums primarily responsible for erosion. Finally, the process of erosion stops when the transported particles fall out of the transporting medium and settle on a surface. This process is called deposition. Figure 10w-1 illustrates an area of Death Valley, California where the effects of erosion and deposition can be easily seen."

Unconformity Defined An unconformity is the contact between sedimentary rocks that are significantly different in age or between sedimentary rocks and older, eroded igneous or metamorphic rocks. Unconformities represent gaps in the geologic record, periods of time that are not represented by any rocks. Unconformities happen for two reasons: sediment deposition stopped for a considerable time and/or existing rocks were eroded prior to being covered by younger sediment. There is no single time span represented by an unconformity."

Regions influenced by wind include most of the dry climates of the Earth ( Figure 10ah-1 ). According to the Köppen Climate Classification System (see topic 7v ), this would include regions of the world that are classified as arid deserts ( BW ) and semiarid steppe ( BS ). Wind can also cause erosion and deposition in environments where sediments have been recently deposited or disturbed. Such environments include lake and ocean coastline beaches, alluvial fans, and farmland where topsoil has been disturbed by cultivation. Figure 10ah-1: Global distribution of major deposits of eolian derived sediments. Unlike streams, wind has the ability to transport sediment up-slope as well as down-slope. The relative ability of wind to erode materials is is slight when compared to the other major erosional mediums, water and ice. Ice and water can have greater erosive power primarily because of their greater density .

EQ: Weathering : Weathering Describe three ways abrasion occurs in nature. List three things that cause chemical weathering of rocks. Describe the similarity in the ways tree roots and ice mechanically weather rock. Describe five (5) sources of chemical weathering. Weathering : Weathering Weathering is the process by which rock materials are broken down by the action of physical or chemical processes. Mechanical weathering is the breakdown of rock into smaller pieces by physical means. ( ice, wind, water, gravity, plants, animals) Chemical weathering is the process by which rocks break down as a result of chemical reactions."

The physical features of the surface of the earth keep on changing all the time on geological time scale. This is how we see mountains, valleys, plains, rivers, and other relief features. These topographical features are a result of natural geological processes called erosion and deposition. These are closely related concepts though totally opposite to each other. This is why there is confusion in the minds of many students of physical geography. This article attempts to clarify the doubts regarding natural processes called erosion and deposition. Let us take a closer look. What is Erosion? The movement of rock pieces from one place to another, once they have been loosened by the action of physical or chemical weathering, is known as erosion."

These zones are important because a majority of the world's population inhabit such zones. Coastal zones are continually changing because of the dynamic interaction between the oceans and the land. Waves and winds along the coast are both eroding rock and depositing sediment on a continuous basis, and rates of erosion and deposition vary considerably from day to day along such zones. The energy reaching the coast can become high during storms, and such high energies make coastal zones areas of high vulnerability to natural hazards. Thus, an understanding of the interactions of the oceans and the land is essential in understanding the hazards associated with coastal zones. Tides, currents, and waves bring energy to the coast, and thus we start with these three factors. Tides Tides are due to the gravitational attraction of Moon and to a lesser extent, the Sun on the Earth. Because the Moon is closer to the Earth than the Sun, it has a larger affect and causes the Earth to bulge toward the moon."

Understanding landforms is essential to understanding more complicated topics, such as topography. Landforms are natural planetary features that together make up a planet's terrain. Terrain, also known as \"\"relief\"\", is the third (vertical) dimension of the planet's surface. Continents and oceans are considered to be the most basic landforms, and the arrangement of smaller landforms within these bodies is known as topography, for continental features, and bathymetry, for undersea features. Landforms characterize the terrain of the earth, but can also be found on planetary bodies throughout the universe. Working knowledge of landforms is important for a variety of scientific pursuits. Topographers study terrain, cartographers work to accurately represent relief on maps by methods such as contour lines or a Triangulated Irregular Network, and geomorphologists study the origin and evolution of the landforms themselves. Landforms are categorized by their characteristic physical features, including location, height, pitch, stratification, and composition."

S. subprime mortgage crisis was a set of events and conditions that led to a financial crisis and subsequent recession that began in 2007. It was characterized by a rise in subprime mortgage delinquencies and foreclosures, and the resulting decline of securities backed by said mortgages. Several major financial institutions collapsed in September 2008, with significant disruption in the flow of credit to businesses and consumers and the onset of a severe global recession. Government housing policies, over-regulation, failed regulation and deregulation have all been claimed as causes of the crisis, along with many others. While the modern financial system evolved, regulation did not keep pace and became mismatched with the risks building in the economy. The Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission (FCIC) tasked with investigating the causes of the crisis reported in January 2011 that: \"\"We had a 21st-century financial system with 19th-century safeguards.\"\" [ 1]Increasing home ownership has been the goal of several presidents, including Roosevelt, Reagan, Clinton, and George W. Bush. [ 2] The FCIC wrote that U. S. government affordable housing policies and the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) were not primary causes of the crisis, as the events were primarily driven by the private sector, with the major investment banks at the core of the crisis not subject to depository banking regulations such as the CRA. In addition, housing bubbles appeared in several European countries at the same time, although U. S. housing policies did not apply there. Further, subprime lending roughly doubled (from below 10% of mortgage originations, to around 20% from 2004-2006), although there were no major changes to long-standing housing laws around that time."

Functions Transferring the ownership of shares from one investor's account to another investor's account when a trade is executed is one of the primary functions of a depository. This helps reduce the paperwork for executing a trade and speeds up the transfer process. Another function of a depository is it eliminates the risk of holding the securities in physical form such as theft, loss, fraud, damage or delay in deliveries. Depository services also include checking and savings accounts, and the transfer of funds and electronic payments through online banking or debit cards."

What are the Federal Reserve's roles in the payment system? In summary, the role of the Federal Reserve in providing payment services is to promote the integrity and efficiency of the payments mechanism and to ensure the provision of payment services to all depository institutions on an equitable basis, and to do so in an atmosphere of competitive fairness. Given the size, speed, and interdependencies of payments, this mission is, and will likely continue to be, even more important than it was when the Federal Reserve was established in 1913. The Role of the Federal Reserve Background Since the Federal Reserve's inception, its active involvement in payments processing has been an integral part of the development of the nation's financial system. The Congress, responding in part to the breakdown of the check-collection system in the early 1900s, made the Federal Reserve an active participant in the payments system when it established the Federal Reserve in 1913. At that time the Congress envisioned that the Federal Reserve would play a dual role as an operator and a regulator of the payments system. The Congress has reaffirmed its commitment to this dual role for the Federal Reserve in the Monetary Control Act of 1980 and the Expedited Funds Availability Act, enacted in 1987. The Federal Reserve has a wide-ranging participatory role in the payments system. Reserve Banks process checks and provide a nationwide network for the collection of items ineligible for processing through normal check-collection channels, such as matured coupons, bonds, and banker's acceptances."

Answer: For Regulation C reporting, a manufactured home is one that meets the HUD code, 12 CFR 203.2 (i). The official staff commentary indicates that modular homes that are ready for occupancy when they leave the factory and meet all of the HUD code standards are included in the definition of \"\"manufactured home\"\". 203.2 (i)-1. The comment, and a prior FAQ on this site, have raised questions about whether a modular home should be reported as a manufactured home or as a one- to four-family dwelling. Until the Board provides further guidance regarding modular homes, lenders may, at their option, report a modular home as either a one- to four-family dwelling or as a manufactured home. - This FAQ supersedes the prior FAQ on modular homes posted in December 2003.

They are the intermediaries between the depository and the investors. The relationship between the DPs and the depository is governed by an agreement made between the two under the Depositories Act. In a strictly legal sense, a DP is an entity who is registered as such with SEBI under the sub section 1A of Section 12 of the SEBI Act. As per the provisions of this Act, a DP can offer depository-related services only after obtaining a certificate of registration from SEBI. As of 2012, there were 288 DPs of NSDL and 563 DPs of CDSL registered with SEBI. [ 1] [2]SEBI (D&P) Regulations, 1996 prescribe a minimum net worth of Rs. 50 lakh for stockbrokers, R&T agents and non-banking finance companies (NBFC), for granting them a certificate of registration to act as DPs.

"text": "\"The Primary & Secondary Lending Programs Overview Terms & Features Eligibility For Depository Institutions For Bank Examiners1. Overview The Federal Reserve's discount window serves many purposes for depository institutions and the economy. It functions as a safety valve in relieving pressures in reserve markets, and extensions of credit can help relieve liquidity strains in a depository institution and in the banking system as a whole. By supplying liquidity during times of systemic stress, the discount window also helps to assure the basic stability of the payments system more generally. When the Federal Reserve System was established in 1913, lending reserve funds through the discount window was intended as the principal instrument of central banking operations. Although the discount window was long ago superseded by open market operations as the most important tool of monetary policy, it still plays a complementary role. Banks and other depository institutions traditionally have borrowed from the Federal Reserve's discount window when they face a temporary, unexpected, need for funds. The \"\"Primary Credit\"\" program is the principal safety valve for ensuring adequate liquidity in the banking system; it is a backup source of short-term funds for sound depository institutions. Primary credit is priced at a rate above the FOMC’s target for the federal funds rate and is normally granted on a “no-questions-asked,” minimally administered basis. There are no restrictions on borrowers’ use of primary credit."

To do so individuals may use self-directed methods of safekeeping or the services of a bank or brokerage firm.

Next Up Check Safekeeping Safekeeping Certificate Custodian Limited Purpose Trust Company BREAKING DOWN 'Safekeeping'Individuals who place an asset in safekeeping – often with a bank trust department – generally receive a safekeeping receipt. These receipts indicate that the asset of the individual does not become an asset of the institution and that the institution must return the asset to the individual upon request. An institution will often require a fee for these services. Many who invest with brokerage firms have their stock or bond securities held in safekeeping.

Dermatologists provide life-changing medical diagnoses and treatments that restore health, prevent illness, improve quality of life, and bring relief for people who suffer from a variety of conditions that often cause severe mental and physical impairment. Dermatologists are physician specialists who diagnose and treat disorders of the skin, hair, nails, and mucous membranes in both adults and children. The extent of services provided is broad, ranging from acne, infections, genetic disorders, and skin cancer to cosmetic issues such as scars, hair loss, tattoo removal, and aging. SHOW ME SCHOOLS »Like most medical doctors, the day-to-day duties of dermatologists are as varied as the patients with whom they work. To diagnose infections or other skin conditions, they perform physical examinations, occasionally with the assistance of black light. Some disorders, such as systemic diseases, are treated with prescribed antibiotics or other types of medicine. These professionals also perform several types of minor surgical procedures, including the excision of moles and techniques like Moh’s surgery – a specialized procedure that removes skin cancer from sensitive regions (such as the face) with minimal scarring and physical disruption. Given that the high visibility of skin conditions can greatly impact a patient’s quality of life, dermatologists will often focus on cosmetic issues. Many are trained in techniques like Botox injections, as well as laser therapy to improve the appearance of birthmarks."

They must complete: Bachelor's degree - 4 years Medical degree - 4 years Residency Training - 3 years Mohs Surgery training (optional) - 1-2 years Like other physicians, dermatologists must meet the other requirements for a U. S. medical license to practice, by passing all three steps of the USMLE exam. Then, the doctor must pass the test for Board Certification by the American Board of Dermatology. Lastly, the prospective dermatologist must meet requirements for a state license in the state he or she wishes to work. What's to Like about a Career as a Dermatologist You’ve probably never heard of an emergency mole removal, and that is one of the many reasons dermatology is such a desirable field in which to practice: quality of life."

I recently answered a question about splitting, soft fingernails from a reader of one of the popular web sites where I contribute as a skin expert. The question was so good – and so common – that I wanted to include my answer here. The reader asked why she might have soft, splitting nails and what she could do to try to improve the health and strength of her nails. Here’s my answer to her: What causes soft, splitting fingernails? Hereditary nail syndromes that cause nails to be deformed Age causes nails to become dry, ridged and split over time.

To treat the most common skin concerns–acne, adult hormonal breakouts, clogged pores, bumps, sun damage, rosacea, brown spots, and/or simply maintaining a youthful and healthy-looking appearance–who should you see? There are vast differences, so allow me to explain. Keep in mind, I’m an esthetician with almost 30 years of experience. I know this side of the skin industry much better. Perhaps my information will be a bit biased, but I am painting an honest picture of what I know to be true. What are the main differences between seeing a dermatologist versus an esthetician?"

This causes a red, painful lump to form as pus collects under the skin. A boil that occurs on the eyelid is called a stye. To treat a boil or stye at home, dermatologists recommend the following tips: Make a warm compress: Applying heat in the form of a warm compress is the best way to treat boils and styes yourself. To make a warm compress, soak a clean washcloth in hot water. Be careful not to use water that is too hot, especially on children. Apply the warm compress: Hold the compress to the affected area for 10 to 15 minutes. Do this three to four times daily until the boil or stye releases pus and heals. Never squeeze or pierce a boil or stye yourself, as this can spread the infection."

Abscess are caused by an inflammatory response from your body’s defenses. It is triggered when your immune system tries to kill germs that get under the skin or in the oil (sebaceous) glands. When the body’s immune system begins to fight off the infection, white blood cells move through the walls of the blood vessels into the area of the infection and collect in the damaged tissue. Thus, the abscess becomes filled with pus. The collection of pus includes dead cells, bacteria, and debris. This process then expands and inflames the surrounding follicles and tissue, causing pain. People with weakened immune systems are more prone to getting abscesses. Abscesses themselves are not contagious, but the bacteria that cause boils are.

This is the reason why kidney failure patients are always asked to make diet changes. Well, what foods are safe to eat while we are on dialysis? Before knowing what foods are recommended for people who are on dialysis, we need to know well about the general dietary principles, only with a good understanding about it, can we make right decision while choosing what foods to eat and what foods to avoid. Dietary principles for dialysis patients Once kidney failure patients start dialysis, they should be especially careful about protein intake, fluid intake and salt intake. With dialysis, they usually need to increase protein intake to replenish protein they lost in urine and during dialysis. And as for the fluid, it depends on the specific illness condition, but they generally need to limit fluid intake, so as to have a tight control about the dry weight. Besides, aside from protein and fluid, potassium intake and phosphorus intake also should be controlled well. Failed kidney can not excrete excess phosphorus and potassium in blood, so dialysis patients are usually asked to reduce potassium intake and phosphorus intake. Safe foods to eat while on dialysis According to dietary principles we mentioned in the above, the following foods are recommended for dialysis patients:1."

"text": "Print Page Email Page10 Physical Side Effects of Dialysis and How to Prevent Them Dialysis is a lifesaving treatment for those with end stage renal disease (ESRD). However, with both peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD), there are occasions when a patient may have side effects from the treatment. These side effects can be mild or severe, depending on the patient's condition and whether or not they're following their dietary and fluid restrictions. Most of these side effects can be managed if the patient carefully follows their healthcare team's dietary and fluid intake recommendations. Side effects of PD1. Hernia A hernia is a potential side effect of PD, a type of home dialysis treatment. The muscles of the abdominal wall protect the internal organs and keep them in place. The insertion of a catheter—positioned inside and outside of the body to allow dialysis solution into and out of the abdominal cavity—can weaken these muscles. When patients do an exchange (the process of filling, dwelling and draining dialysis solution), the pressure from the dialysis solution in the peritoneum pushes against these already weak muscles. This pressure could cause a tear, and organs from the abdominal cavity could emerge through the opening."

The excess products must be discarded, and this is the job of the kidney. When kidneys fail, they cannot eliminate waste products, and these wastes accumulate and poison the body. This leads to a condition known as uremia. The waste products that accumulate are harmful to the body. The kidney also has the job of regulating fluids. In kidney failure, fluids and a mineral known as sodium (salt) can accumulate, leading to high blood pressure and heart failure. Acids are minerals that can lower the body p H if not elimated or buffered. The kidney plays a key role in this process, but in kidney failure, it loses its ability to do so, leading to acidosis.

"text": "Peritoneal dialysis is similar in principle to hemodialysis. Both of these forms of renal replacement therapy depend upon the passive movement of water and dissolved substances (solutes) across a semipermeable membrane. This process is called diffusion. The direction of movement of solute is determined by the relative concentration on each side of the membrane, so that a substance goes from the side of greater to lesser concentration. But that is pretty much where the similarities end, for the techniques themselves are very different from one another. Those differences are what provide for true treatment options for the person who requires dialysis therapy. Hemodialysis is a very efficient method of ridding the body of accumulated metabolic waste; the patient’s blood is circulated outside the body through a filter (the artificial kidney) and then returned continuously for several hours, usually two or three times each week. In between treatments, the levels of solute (waste products) and water increase gradually: the rate of accumulation depending primarily upon what the patient eats and drinks between treatments. The treatment itself removes the waste products fairly rapidly. This rapid change in body composition can lead to dialysis disequilibrium syndrome, which may explain symptoms, such as fatigue and headache, which patients often experience after a hemodialysis treatment."

The funny thing about common wisdom, though, is it could turn out to be wrong. Research now suggests that putting off dialysis as long as you can may be the safer choice. Stages of chronic kidney disease The National Kidney Foundation's ( NKF) guidelines 1have divided chronic kidney disease ( CKD) into five stages based on glomerular filtration rate ( GFR ), roughly the measure of your percent kidney function: Stage of CKDGFR (m L/min) Action to take1 ≥ 90Diagnose and treat the kidney problem Treat other illnesses Slow the rate of CKDReduce your risk of heart disease2 60–89Estimate the rate at which your CKD is progressing3 30–59Evaluate and treat any complications4 15–29Prepare for transplant or dialysis5 < 15Start dialysis or get a transplant (if uremia is present)New evidence says dialysis should start by a GFR of 6, or sooner if there are symptoms. Uremia is a build-up of wastes in the blood. As kidneys fail, this build-up of wastes and excess water in the blood causes symptoms, like: Overwhelming fatigue Itchy skin (the itching may be so severe that it can wake you up at night)Swelling in your hands, feet, or face Loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, eating less (or no) protein, \"\"metal\"\" taste in your mouth Feeling faint or dizzy Trouble with mental focus Feeling cold when others are warm Shortness of breath The symptoms people have as their kidney function gets worse can vary a lot. Some people even feel fine and report no symptoms. For many years, the choice of when to start dialysis was as much an art as it was a science.

"text": "Hemodialysis Dose & Adequacy When kidneys fail, dialysis is necessary to remove waste products such as urea from the blood. By itself, urea is only mildly toxic, but a high urea level means that the levels of many other waste products that are more harmful and not as easily measured are also building up. To see whether dialysis is removing enough urea, the dialysis clinic should periodically—normally once a month—test a patient's blood to measure dialysis adequacy. Blood is sampled at the start of dialysis and at the end. The levels of urea in the two blood samples are then compared. Two methods are generally used to assess dialysis adequacy, URR and Kt/V. What is the URR? URR stands for urea reduction ratio, meaning the reduction in urea as a result of dialysis. The URR is one measure of how effectively a dialysis treatment removed waste products from the body and is commonly expressed as a percentage. Example: If the initial, or predialysis, urea level was 50 milligrams per deciliter (mg/d L) and the postdialysis urea level was 15 mg/d L, the amount of urea removed was 35 mg/d L.50 mg/d L - 15 mg/d L = 35 mg/d LThe amount of urea removed (35 mg/d L) is expressed as a percentage of the predialysis urea level (50 mg/d L).35/50 = 70/100 = 70%Although no fixed percentage can be said to represent an adequate dialysis, patients generally live longer and have fewer hospitalizations if the URR is at least 60 percent. As a result, some experts recommend a minimum URR of 65 percent."

"text": "Font Size A A AFoods that Can Help Decrease Creatinine Level2014-01-23 02:14What are the common foods that can help decrease creatinine level? Creatinine is a breakdown product of creatine, which is an important part of muscles, and creatinine is mainly removed from blood by kidneys. When the kidneys are damages, the kidney function will fail to work well, and the creatinine level cant be excreted promptly. Creatinine level is often a sign of severe kidney damage. When the creatinine level is higher than the normal level, it means less than 50% kidney function for kidney disease patients. The normal creatinine level for adult is 0.5-1.2 mg/dl, and kidney disease patients should pay attention to their creatinine level. Once their creatinine level is higher than the normal level, they need to have effective treatment to lower it. In this article, we will introduce some common foods that can help decrease creatinine level.1. Cabbage and lettuce High creatinine level patients can eat more leafy greens, especially cabbage and lettuce, which can help lower creatinine levels. Besides, leafy greens can also help prevent the formation of kidney stones.2."

Before undergoing regular peritoneal dialysis, patients need to do catheter a surgery. This article aims at teaching these patients to learn how to prepare for this surgery. Preparation for peritoneal dialysis catheter surgery In order to perform PD, you must have a PD catheter placed into your abdomen. This catheter is a flexible plastic tube. That allows dialysis fluid to enter your abdominal cavity and then drain out again. To guarantee your successful surgery, you need to do some preparations:- You can’t have constipation before the operation, so you may need to take some medications to move your bowels with the guidance of doctors.- Don’t drink or eat anything before the surgery.- If you are taking some medications that thin your blood like aspirin or some arthritis medicines, try to stop them for one week before your surgery.- Don’t have any mental stress. Some pain or a small amount of drainage on your dressing is normal during or after your surgery, learn to relax yourself. A fully preparation is an important step for the whole operation, so is post-operative care of the catheter. What should you expect after the peritoneal dialysis catheter surgery?"

"text": "How Long Can People with Renal Failure Live on Dialysis2013-03-23 10:37One of most frequent questions people with renal failure after beginning dialysis is how long can people with renal failure live on dialysis. The answer to this question has a great difference in individuals with renal failure. Here, I would like to tell you the average life span of patients on dialysis and how to improve your life expectancy. The average life expectancy of people with kidney failure on dialysis Generally, if patients can be provided sufficient dialysis every time and don’t miss any dialysis, they can live with dialysis for approximately 5 years. This value changes for individuals in different environment and different healthy conditions. Tiredness, high blood pressure, diabetes and many other complications all can contribute to shorten patients’ life span. If you are bothered by this question-how long can people with renal failure live on dialysis, the following content is able to help you get rid of this maddening question. How to extend the life expectancy of people with renal failure on dialysis? ● Control the largest risks High blood pressure, diabetes, proteinuria and hematuria all are high risks to worsen patients’ medical condition, so controlling them timely and effectively is very necessary to make patients longer. A healthy diet and correct medications are helpful to control these complications."

"text": "Kidney FAQ's1:1. What do we understand by kidneys and the urinary tract ? The two kidneys are situated at the back of abdominal cavity Each kidney weighs 150 gm; contains one million filtering units called Nephrons' the filter is called 'glomerulus' which is attached to long coiled collecting tube Excess of water and waste substances are removed from the body in the urine, through the 'Ureter' 'bladder' which when filled causes a sensation to pass urine through the terminal tube called 'Urethra'.2:0 What do the kidneys do ? The kidneys Control the amount of water in the body,Remove the waste substances and excess of potassium, phosphates from the blood;Play important role in the formation of red blood cell through production of hormone called 'Erythropoetin;'Control blood pressure through hormone called renin; and Keep the bones healthy through vitamin D3.2:1 Kidney and Blood Pressure : Blood pressure implies the force of blood flow through the arteries and depends upon the size of arteries , force with which the heart pumps blood and the amount of water and salt in the body; kidney cells secrete a hormone called 'renin' which also plays an important role in regulation of blood pressure.2:2 Kidney and Anemia : kidneys produce a hormone called 'Erythropoetin' - a substance that controls the rate at which bone marrow produces red blood cells; Besides kidney failure patients have lack of iron and vitamin B12 and folic acid due to decreased in fact of food.2:3 Kidney and Bones When kidneys fail, phosphorus accumulates in the blood which causes calcium to be drawn out of the bones. In order to correct this, avoid eating phosphate containing foods such as meat, cheese, nuts, dried beans, soft drink etc. Healthy kidneys change Vit D to a more active form (Vit D3) . When kidneys fail level of calcium in the blood and bones falls.3:1 What is urine and its significance in kidney diseases? Urine is composed of excreted water containing unwanted waste substances filtered from the blood by the kidneys Simple urine test provides enormous information to the doctor; leakage of sugar occurs in diabetes, bile in hepatitis, proteins in nephrits. Damage to the kidney filter leads to leakage of albumin through urine, protein of much smaller size called microalbumin, starts leaking early in the urine diabetes; 4:0 What are the diseases that affect the kidneys ? 4:1 Diabetes Mellitus : Kidney involvement occurs at a fast pace if control of both diabetes and blood pressure is poor; eye changes are usually present."

Michael F. Mc Elroy for The New York Times The population of people on dialysis is graying; adults aged 75 and older are the fastest growing group beginning this treatment. But often doctors don’t answer their key question: “How long can I expect to live?”Researchers at Tufts University and the University of New Mexico underscored the disconnect in a recent review. Ninety-five percent of patients said they and their families want to be given information about life expectancy, the authors noted. But a 2010 survey cited in the study found that 90 percent of patients had never discussed the issue with their nephrologists. The researchers called for doctors to explain prognosis to patients and undertake shared decision-making, assessing the benefits and burdens of treatment in light of a person’s values. That recommendation has also been adopted by the Renal Physicians Association and the American Society of Nephrology. But the advice is widely ignored in practice. I interviewed several experts and reviewed almost two dozen scientific reports for some answers about the prognosis for older adults on dialysis. Q. What is known about life expectancy among older dialysis patients?"

If you are a patient on dialysis, you may be thinking about what happens if you decide to stop treatment. ( Your kidney doctor can provide you with specific information about the dialysis procedure itself. ) What is kidney failure and how is it treated. Normal kidneys work to filter poisons (called toxins) and fluid from the blood. Most people have normal kidneys that function and work well throughout their lifetime. When kidneys stop working properly or fail, it is most often due to complications from diabetes or from hardening of the arteries. Kidney failure causes these toxins or poisons (such as creatinine) to build up in the body, ending in death if not treated. Hemodialysis is a way to artificially filter out toxins once the kidneys no longer function on their own. To do this, a surgeon must connect an artery and a vein together in your arm to form a “fistula” (an enlarged vessel or vascular access)."

While blood pressure could apply to the pressure in the arteries, veins, or within the heart, this article refers to the pressure of the blood in the arteries, which is what is commonly referred to as blood pressure or BP. There are normally two numbers provided for a blood pressure measurement. A common measurement might be 120/80. The higher number is called systole, and is the pressure produced when the heart \"\"beats\"\" or contracts, producing the maximum pressure in the artery. The lower number, diastole, is a measurement of the minimum pressure that is present between beats of the heart. The number is normally given in units of millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). While we talk of blood pressure as if it were a more or less fixed number similar to body weight, it is not. It is much more similar (and related) to heart rate. Blood pressure must, and does, change in order to meet the body's needs."

When detected and treated early, however, it can reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease. What Is Blood Pressure? Blood pressure is the outward force that blood exerts on artery walls. Arteries are the blood vessels that carry blood and oxygen from the lungs to all of the organs and tissues of the body. Arteries are composed of muscle and flexible, elastic connective tissue that stretch to accommodate the force of blood flow generated by the heart. And the pumping action of the heart is what allows blood to travel through these arteries. Blood pressure is expressed in two numbers. The top number, systolic blood pressure, reflects the force generated by the contractions of the heart. The bottom number, the diastolic blood pressure, refers to the pressure of blood against the walls of the arteries when the heart is resting between contractions."

In atherosclerosis, the walls of elastic arteries become less compliant (stiffer). What effect does reduced compliance have on the pressure reservoir function of arteries? Due to atherosclerosis, less energy is stored in the less-compliant elastic arteries during systole; thus, the heart must pump harder to maintain the same rate of blood flow. Why do metabolically active tissues have extensive capillary networks? Metabolically active tissues use oxygen and produce wastes more rapidly than inactive tissues, so they require more extensive capillary networks. How do materials move through capillary walls?"

But a new clue is emerging in the quest to understand cardiovascular risk factors: pulse pressure. What Is Blood Pressure? Blood pressure is the force with which blood pushes against artery walls as it flows throughout your body — the pressure that the blood exerts. Blood pressure is always expressed as two numbers, both measured in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). The systolic pressure (first or top number) measures the force when your hearts beats; the diastolic pressure (second or bottom number) is a measurement of the heart at rest. For example, someone with a systolic reading of 120 mm Hg and a diastolic reading of 80 mm Hg would have a blood pressure of 120 over 80. If systolic pressure goes up — even if the diastolic pressure stays the same — the patient is at risk for developing serious cardiovascular conditions. What Is Pulse Pressure?"

"text": "Do you know what your blood pressure reading is? Have you had your blood pressure checked in the last year? If you are a man over age 45 or a woman over age 55, especially if you are African-American, high blood pressure is a condition you can't ignore. According to the U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than half of all men and women will develop high blood pressure, also called hypertension, after age 55. High blood pressure can lead to heart attack and stroke, two of the three leading causes of death for Americans. You can have high blood pressure without experiencing any symptoms — that's why it’s important to have your blood pressure checked regularly. And even if you know that you have a normal blood pressure reading today, you want to do everything you can to keep it in that healthy range. Normal Blood Pressure Basics Blood pressure is the force your blood exerts on the walls of your arteries, the blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood away from your heart. When your heart beats and forces more blood into your arteries, the force is a little higher; this is called your systolic pressure. Between beats, the pressure drops; this is called your diastolic pressure."

The second number (diastolic) measures pressure between heartbeats, as blood flows throughout the body. Healthy Women Administration Blood pressure is typically expressed as two numbers, one over the other, and is measured in millimeters of mercury (noted as mm Hg). The first number is the systolic blood pressure, the pressure used when the heart beats. The second number, diastolic blood pressure, is the pressure that exists in the arteries between heartbeats. Depending on your activities, your blood pressure may increase or decrease throughout the day. If you are not acutely ill, are over 18 years of age and are not taking antihypertensive drugs, a blood pressure reading of 119 mm Hg or below systolic and/or 79 mm Hg or below diastolic (119/79) is considered normal. If your systolic blood pressure is 120 to 139 mm Hg systolic and/or your diastolic pressure is 80 to 89 mm Hg, you have prehypertension. This means that you don't have high blood pressure now but are more likely to develop it in the future, and you have increased risk factors for cardiovascular disease and other conditions related to hypertension. A blood pressure level of 140/90 mm Hg or higher is considered high."

History of the Periodic Table The periodic table is a way to organize the elements based on their similarities. The first version was constructed by Dmitri Mendeleev in 1869. He put the elements into a grid with increasing atomic weights and noticed the elements in each column had similar chemical properties. Mendeleev was able to predict the existence of elements before they were discovered or synthesized by looking at gaps in his table. However, he also found inconsistencies."

"text": "\"10.1 Gaseous Elements and Compounds Learning Objective To describe the characteristics of a gas. The three common phases (or states) of matter are gases, liquids, and solids. Gases have the lowest density of the three, are highly compressible, and completely fill any container in which they are placed. Gases behave this way because their intermolecular forces are relatively weak, so their molecules are constantly moving independently of the other molecules present. Solids, in contrast, are relatively dense, rigid, and incompressible because their intermolecular forces are so strong that the molecules are essentially locked in place. Liquids are relatively dense and incompressible, like solids, but they flow readily to adapt to the shape of their containers, like gases. We can therefore conclude that the sum of the intermolecular forces in liquids are between those of gases and solids. Figure 10.1 \"\"A Diatomic Substance (O\"\" compares the three states of matter and illustrates the differences at the molecular level.

"text": "\"9.3 Delocalized Bonding and Molecular Orbitals Learning Objective To use molecular orbital theory to predict bond order. None of the approaches we have described so far can adequately explain why some compounds are colored and others are not, why some substances with unpaired electrons are stable, and why others are effective semiconductors. ( For more information on semiconductors, see Chapter 12 \"\"Solids\"\", Section 12.6 \"\"Bonding in Metals and Semiconductors\"\" .) These approaches also cannot describe the nature of resonance. Such limitations led to the development of a new approach to bonding in which electrons are not viewed as being localized between the nuclei of bonded atoms but are instead delocalized throughout the entire molecule. Just as with the valence bond theory, the approach we are about to discuss is based on a quantum mechanical model. In Chapter 6 \"\"The Structure of Atoms\"\", we described the electrons in isolated atoms as having certain spatial distributions, called orbitals, each with a particular orbital energy. Just as the positions and energies of electrons in atoms can be described in terms of atomic orbitals (AOs), the positions and energies of electrons in molecules can be described in terms of molecular orbitals (MOs) —a spatial distribution of electrons in a molecule that is associated with a particular orbital energy. As the name suggests, molecular orbitals are not localized on a single atom but extend over the entire molecule. Consequently, the molecular orbital approach, called molecular orbital theory, is a delocalized approach to bonding."

Properties of elements Data pages for elements Book Category Chemistry Portalv t e In chemistry, a nonmetal (or non-metal) is a chemical element that mostly lacks metallic attributes. Physically, nonmetals tend to be highly volatile (easily vaporized ), have low elasticity, and are good insulators of heat and electricity; chemically, they tend to have high ionization energy and electronegativity values, and gain or share electrons when they react with other elements or compounds. Seventeen elements are generally classified as nonmetals; most are gases (hydrogen, helium, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, chlorine, argon, krypton, xenon and radon); one is a liquid (bromine), and a few are solids (carbon, phosphorus, sulfur, selenium, and iodine). Moving rightward across the standard form of the periodic table, nonmetals adopt structures that have progressively fewer nearest neighbours. Polyatomic nonmetals have structures with either three nearest neighbours, as is the case (for example) with carbon (in its standard state [n 1] of graphite), or two nearest neighbours (for example) in the case of sulfur. Diatomic nonmetals, such as hydrogen, have one nearest neighbour, and the monatomic noble gases, such as helium, have none. This gradual fall in the number of nearest neighbours is associated with a reduction in metallic character and an increase in nonmetallic character. The distinction between the three categories of nonmetals, in terms of receding metallicity is not absolute."

"text": "Metals like tungsten and molybdenum may exist as diatomic molecules in their gaseous state by forming a sextuple bond. In this, all the six outermost electrons present in each tungsten or molybdenum atom take part in the atomic overlap to form six bonds. Atomicity of a molecule is basically the number of atoms that make a molecule. Molecules can be monatomic, diatomic, or polyatomic depending on the number of atoms that make the molecule. A monatomic element consists of elements that exist on their own in nature. They do not need to combine with other elements in order to be stable. These are usually inert gas elements like helium, neon, argon, etc. As the name suggests, a diatomic molecule is made of two atoms of the same or of different elements that are joined together by means of a chemical bond (details of which will be discussed below). In polyatomic molecules, three or more atoms of the same element or of different elements are joined by chemical bonds. Examples of triatomic molecules are O3, H2O, SO2, etc."

Diatoms are unicellular, although they can form colonies in the shape of filaments or ribbons (e.g. Fragilaria ), fans (e.g. Meridion ), zigzags (e.g. Tabellaria ), or stars (e.g. Asterionella ). The first diatom formally described in scientific literature, the colonial Bacillaria paradoxa, was found in 1783 by Danish naturalist Otto Friedrich Müller. Diatoms are producers within the food chain. A unique feature of diatom cells is that they are enclosed within a cell wall made of silica (hydrated silicon dioxide) called a frustule. [ 7] These frustules show a wide diversity in form, but are usually almost bilaterally symmetrical, hence the group name. The symmetry is not perfect since one of the valves is slightly larger than the other, allowing one valve to fit inside the edge of the other. These shells are used by humans as diatomaceous earth, also known as diatomite. Fossil evidence suggests that they originated during, or before, the early Jurassic period."

Next, the beautiful corals are put in perfect position so as not to offend each other, then you carefully acclimate the perfect fish and invertebrates and turn them loose in the tank. Everything is working wonderfully for about four weeks until all of a sudden everything is covered with a blanket of ugly brown algae. You run another battery of water chemistry tests which show the same results that they always have: a slight trace of ammonia, zero nitrites, near zero nitrates, and a trace of phosphates. There is little food (nitrates or phosphates) for algae to feed on, so what is this ugly brown stuff and where is it coming from? A better question is: How do you get rid of it? No matter what you do, it just seems to keep growing and getting worse all the time.

The word plankton is from the Greek word for \"\"wandering\"\" (MARE: Marine Activities, Resources & Education). They drift or wander the oceans at the mercy of the currents. They are generally unable to move against currents. This lack of mobility separates plankton from the nekton, which are organisms that can propel themselves through the water (such as fish). Some planktonic organisms can be quite large (like jellyfish); however, most are smaller than nekton, and small enough that they have to be viewed under a microscope."

E., diatomite, or kieselgur / kieselguhr, is a naturally occurring, soft, siliceous sedimentary rock that is easily crumbled into a fine white to off-white powder. It has a particle size ranging from less than 3 micrometre to more than 1 millimeter, but typically 10 to 200 micrometres. Depending on the granularity, this powder can have an abrasive feel, similar to pumice powder, and is very light as a result of its high porosity. The typical chemical composition of oven-dried diatomaceous earth is 80 to 90% silica, with 2 to 4% alumina (attributed mostly to clay minerals) and 0.5 to 2% iron oxide. [ 1]Diatomaceous earth consists of fossilized remains of diatoms, a type of hard-shelled algae. It is used as a filtration aid, mild abrasive in products including toothpaste, mechanical insecticide, absorbent for liquids, matting agent for coatings, reinforcing filler in plastics and rubber, anti-block in plastic films, porous support for chemical catalysts, cat litter, activator in blood clotting studies, a stabilizing component of dynamite, and a thermal insulator.

No one even knows how many species there are, though estimates range between 65,000 to 200,000. All protists are eukaryotes, complex cells with nuclear membranes and organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts. They can be either unicellular or multicellular, and in this group we find the first inkling of what is to come in evolutionary history, the union of eukaryotic cells into a colonial organism, where various cell types perform certain tasks, communicate with one another, and together function like a multicellular organism. Two Major Groups of Protists:1. Some protists are autotrophs , a photosynthetic group of phyla referred to as the algae. Autotrophs manufacture their own energy by photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. Algae use various combinations of the major chlorophyll pigments, chlorophyll a, b, and c, mixed with a wide array of other pigments that give some of them very distinctive colors.2. Some protists are heterotrophs , a group of phyla called the protozoa. Heterotrophs get their energy by consuming other organisms."

Maybe you've heard the old joke: What's the worst thing you can do to a boat? Put it in the water. Once a boat enters the water, microorganisms begin accumulating on its surfaces, creating a significant amount of drag and a big mess. This may not matter for a small fishing boat, but for giant container ships, the drag created by microorganisms — in particular single-celled, silica-shelled organisms called diatoms — results in a significant amount of fuel loss every year. Diatoms are one of the most common types of phytoplankton and a major group of algae. They constitute a large percentage of all living matter in oceans, rivers and lakes. One species, Didymosphenia geminata, is responsible for creating thick blooms in mountain streams and ponds."

"text": "\"Biogenic Sediments Biogenic sediments, which are defined as containing at least 30% skeletal remains of marine organisms, cover approximately 62% of the deep ocean floor. Clay minerals make up most of the non-biogenic constituents of these sediments. While a vast array of plants and animals contribute to the organic matter that accumulates in marine sediments, a relatively limited group of organisms contribute significantly to the production of biogenic deep-sea sediments, which are either calcareous or siliceous oozes. Distributions and accumulation rates of biogenic oozes in oceanic sediments depend on three major factors:rates of production of biogenic particles in the surface waters,dissolution rates of those particles in the water column and after they reach the bottom, andrates of dilution by terrigenous sediments. The abundances and distributions of the organisms that produce biogenic sediments depend upon such environmental factors as nutrient supplies and temperature in the oceanic waters in which the organisms live. Dissolution rates are dependent upon the chemistry of the deep ocean waters through which the skeletal remains settle and of the bottom and interstitial waters in contact with the remains as they accumulate and are buried. The chemistry of deep-sea waters, is, in turn, influenced by the rate of supply of both skeletal and organic remains of organisms from surface waters. It is also heavily dependent upon the rates of deep ocean circulation and the length of time that the bottom water has been accumulating CO 2 and other byproducts of biotic activities. Carbonate Oozes Production Most carbonate or calcareous oozes are produced by the two different groups of organisms. The major constituents of nanofossil or coccolith ooze are tiny (less than 10 microns) calcareous plates produced by phytoplankton of the marine algal group, the Coccolithophoridae or by an extinct group called discoasters."

Everything that you see around you contains energy, even if it doesn't move. All molecules and atoms have spin, vibrations but all of these are internal forces. All atoms try to achieve the lowest potential, i.e., a state of lower energy, which implies maximum stability under a set of given external conditions. The most stable states vary depending on external conditions. Example, Sulphur has many bound states which change based on what the ambient temperature is. It doesn't split into free sulphur atoms; it changes into a different state which is most stable under those conditions. Atoms also bind with other atoms to form molecules, which are more stable than the unbound state. Hydrogen is a perfect example. Free hydrogen doesn't exist on earth, almost all of it is in a bound state."

Living diatoms are amongst the most abundant forms of plankton and represent an essential part of the food chain in the ocean. Once dead, their shells accumulate on the seabed and eventually form siliceous sediment deposits. ( Eureka 2002)HOW DO THEY GROW AND REPRODUCE? Diatoms are almost all photosynthetic. Diatoms represent a large fraction of the marine biomass and thus are responsible for a large proportion of the total energy production of the oceans, possibly as much as half. The few diatoms that don’t photosynthesize live on dissolved nutrients from rich organic matter.

These tiny phytoplankton are essential to life on Earth, says biologist Sam Laney. “Just like plants on land, phytoplankton do photosynthesis: They suck up carbon dioxide and exhaust oxygen. About half of the oxygen on the planet comes from phytoplankton, so every other breath you take is phytoplankton air. In fact, Earth didn’t originally have oxygen in its atmosphere; the evolution of phytoplankton is responsible for there being oxygen for us in the first place. “Moreover, phytoplankton are the base of marine food webs.

The old Kingdom Protista, as I learned it long ago, thus contains some living groups that might serve as possible models for the early eukaryotes. This taxonomic kingdom has been broken into many new kingdoms, reflecting new studies and techniques that help elucidate the true phylogenetic sequence of life on Earth. Protists exhibit a great deal of variation in their life histories (life cycles).

Just buy a brand that has a spherical pellet so that it is easier for the fish to swallow. I am not an expert, but I have looked at the ingredient lists of big bags of fish food, and I think it is made from the same things as cat food, and I don't think a goldfish has to have a perfect nutritional diet.

For birds the benefit is reliable food sources provided by feeders. Many birds depend on feeders to get them through the winter. All birds need food, water, and shelter, but they all have different food needs. If you are looking for specific types of birds, you are more likely to find them if you look in their normal habitat. You will also have more success in your backyard or garden if you are feeding the birds what they like.

Photo: Mila Zinkova The Rain Forest’s Food Chain T he relationships among species in an ecosystem have often been described as a “food chain” in which the larger animals eat the smaller. But the food-chain image is a two-dimension one, when in fact the picture is much more complex. Rain forest relationships are better described as a web—a rainforest food web. In this complex rain forest web of life, the insects of the rainforest floor tend to eat plants, fungi, decaying material and other insects, and in turn be eaten by spiders, among a host of other creatures.

"text": "What Human Foods Can Finches Eat That Are Healthy for Them? By Ann Compton Your pet finch enjoys variety in his diet as much as you do. Even though finches are primarily seed-eaters, there are many human foods that enhance a finch's diet and improve his health. Seed should comprise only a portion of the nutritional content in your bird's diet. It's fine to experiment with a variety to see what foods your bird likes best. Start with Veggies Vegetables are very good for finches. Wild finches snack on a variety of plants and seeds in season. Your finch will benefit from eating leafy green, organic vegetables. Most vegetables are fine for your bird, but don't feed avocado, which is toxic. Asparagus can cause stomach upset."

Different Types of Animals To understand why there are different types of animal teeth but only one kind for humans, you must first know a little about the main four types of animals. Mammals A mammal is a warm-blooded animal. They are called vertebrates (backboned animals), have skin and hair covering their bodies, and they feed their young on mother’s milk after live birth. Humans are in this classification, and so are many other fascinating creatures around the world. In fact, when the majority of people hear the word “animal” they immediately think of an animal that is a mammal. Birds Birds are also warm-blooded, but their bodies are covered in feathers instead of fur. Birds lay eggs from which their young hatch out of after a period of time. Birds have beaks and also have wings, and most – but not all – can fly."

See how you can encourage birds to your gardens, know what to feed them during those cold winter months. This past winter was particularly cold in some countries, and although the wildlife and birds will survive without your intervention, by putting food out for the birds in the wild will encourage them to visit you on a more regular basis. Half the fun in encouraging wild birds to your garden of homestead is that you never know what variety of bird will visit next. There are some drawbacks and disadvantages to feeding wild birds that you should be aware of before you start. The first one being that if you have cats, or there are cats in the neighborhood make sure that you are not indirectly feeding the cats. If you find that you are, it is best that you don't feed the birds, or you modify your nets and bird feeders so that they are not accessible to cats. The other problem you may encounter is that if there is a lot of grain lying around you may also encourage rats. Placing a PVC sleeve over any stake you may have used where you hang your feeders from will make it too slippery for either cats or rats to access. Feeding Wild Birds - What do Birds Eat?"

Intermolecular Forces Intermolecular forces are forces between molecules, and intramolecular forces act within molecules. Intermolecular forces are the forces that exist between molecules. Don't confuse these with intramolecular forces, which are the strong forces that keep a molecule together. ' Intra' means inside, so these are the inside forces in a molecule.

This is far and away the most difficult form of motion to analyse, so we will only examine it in a restricted form, that of rigid body rotating about a fixed axis. For such a system the atoms making up the molecule follow circular trajectories in a plane perpendicular to the rotational axis. In other words every atom will rotate in the plane, i.e. it exhibits two dimensional rotational motion. As was pointed out at the beginning of this course, in the absence of any external forces the axis of rotation must pass through the centre of mass. What we will do now is to derive the centre of mass precisely.4.1.1The Centre of Mass Imagine a molecule consisting of j atoms, each of which has a force F j acting on it. The subscript j simply identifies the atom under consideration. This force is of course equal to the atom's mass, mj, times the acceleration it experiences, d 2 r j/dt 2. ( 4.1.1)."

The key difference between Dipole-Dipole and London Dispersion forces is their strength and where they can be found. The strength of London dispersion forces is relatively weaker than dipole-dipole interactions; however both of these attractions are weaker than ionic or covalent bonds. London dispersion forces can be found in any molecule or sometimes in atoms, but dipole-dipole interactions are only found in polar molecules. What is Dipole-Dipole Force? Dipole-dipole interactions occur when two oppositely polarized molecules interact through space. These forces exist in all molecules that are polar. Polar molecules are formed when two atoms have an electronegativity difference when they form a covalent bond. In this case, atoms can’t share electrons evenly between two atoms due to the electronegativity difference. The more electronegative atom attracts the electron cloud more than the less electronegative atom; so that the resulting molecule possesses slightly positive end and slightly negative end."

USAAbstract. Generators and batteries do not furnish any of their internal energy to their external circuit, but only dissipate it internally to perform work on their own internal charges to form a source dipole. Once formed, the dipole's broken symmetry extracts observable energy from the virtual particle exchange between dipole charges and active vacuum. The extracted observable energy is reradiated as the energy flow through all space surrounding the external circuit. The tiny Poynting fraction intercepted by the surface charges enters the circuit to power it, while the huge nonintercepted Heaviside fraction misses the circuit and is wasted. So electrical loads are powered by energy extracted from the vacuum, not by chemical energy in the battery or shaft energy input to the generator. Any EM system may be asymmetrically regauged freely, changing the energy of the system by changing its potential. By placing the source dipole in a closed current loop with external loads and losses, half the free excitation energy then discharged by the circuit destroys the source dipole while half powers loads and losses. This applies Lorentz symmetrical regauging so that additional internal generator/battery energy must be made available to dissipate on the internal charges to reform the dipole."

The HF molecule has a simple shape - it is linear with (partially) positively and (partially) negatively charged ends. In contrast, the H 2 O molecule has a more complex shape - it has two polar O-H bonds. To understand how this affects the polarity of the molecule we have to take into account both the number of bonds and their polarization. Bond polarity is a vector quantity, that is it has both a magnitude and a direction. This is where an understanding of the 3D structure of the molecule becomes critical. Each O-H bond is polarized and the overall polarity of the molecule is determined by the vector sum of these bond polarities.4.1 Heterogeneous compounds4.2 Single bonds4.3 Double & triple bonds4.4 N, O, F4.5 Molecular Shape4.6 Ionic bonding While this may sound a bit complicated, in practice it is relatively easy to predict qualitatively what the overall polarity of the molecule is - as long as you keep in mind the 3D structure. In water the two OH bonds are at an angle of about 107° to each other - and if we add the bond dipole moments up you can see that the overall direction of the dipole for the molecule bisects that angle. Now you might think ? that this exercise is a bit of a waste of time - surely it would make sense that if a molecule has polar bonds, then the molecule itself should be polar."

At low temperatures, it is a solid in which the individual molecules are locked into a rigid structure. As we raise the temperature, the average kinetic energy of the molecules increases, which increases the rate at which these molecules move. There are three ways in which a water molecule move: (1) vibration, (2) rotation, and (3) translation. Water molecules vibrate when H--O bonds are stretched or bent. Rotation involves the motion of a molecule around its center of gravity. Translation literally means to change from one place to another. It therefore describes the motion of molecules through space. To understand the effect of this motion, we need to differentiate between intramolecular and intermolecular bonds.

Intermolecular forces are weak relative to intramolecular forces – the forces which hold a molecule together. For example, the covalent bond, involving sharing electron pairs between atoms, is much stronger than the forces present between neighboring molecules. Both sets of forces are essential parts of force fields frequently used in molecular mechanics. The investigation of intermolecular forces starts from macroscopic observations which indicate the existence and action of forces at a molecular level. These observations include non-ideal-gas thermodynamic behavior reflected by virial coefficients, vapor pressure, viscosity, superficial tension, and absorption data. The first reference to the nature of microscopic forces is found in Alexis Clairaut 's work Theories de la Figure DE la Terre. [ 1] Other scientists who have contributed to the investigation of microscopic forces include: Laplace, Gauss, Maxwell and Boltzmann. Attractive intermolecular forces are categorized into the following types: Ion-induced dipole forces Ion-dipole forces Hydrogen bondingvan der Waals forces – Keesom force, Debye force, and London dispersion force Information on intermolecular forces is obtained by macroscopic measurements of properties like viscosity, pressure, volume, temperature (PVT) data. The link to microscopic aspects is given by virial coefficients and Lennard-Jones potentials."

"text": "\"What is the strongest type of intermolecular force between the solute: CH3OH and the solvent: CCl4? Chemistry Phases of Matter Intermolecular Forces of Attraction2 Answers1Ernest Z. Share Sep 8, 2017Answer: The strongest intermolecular force is a dipole-induced dipole interaction. Explanation: Intermolecular forces The three most common intermolecular forces, from strongest to weakest are:• dipole - dipole (which includes hydrogen bonds) • dipole - induced dipole • London dispersion forces Intermolecular forces in methanol The strongest intermolecular forces in methanol are hydrogen bonds ( an especially strong type of dipole-dipole interaction). Intermolecular forces in CCl 4The C-Cl bonds are polar but, because of the tetrahedral symmetry, the bond dipoles cancel each other. Thus, CCl 4 is a nonpolar molecule, and its strongest intermolecular forces are London dispersion forces. CH 3 OHin CCl 4CH 3 OH is not very soluble in CCl 4, but some molecules of CH 3 OH can manage to get into the CCl 4. We tend to think of CCl 4 as a spindly molecule with four spokes coming out of a central carbon atom. However, the electron cloud around the molecule is nearly spherical, as in the diagram above. The major interaction between CH 3 OH and CCl 4 will be dipole-induced dipole interactions, in which the O-H bond dipole induces a dipole in the nonpolar CCl 4. Was this helpful?"

So what is happening between two carbon atoms or a carbon atom and a hydrogen atom to cause them to \"\"stick\"\" together? Because we cannot see atoms, we cannot be entirely sure. Nevertheless, a qualitative application of quantum theory can help explain how bonding occurs. If electrons act like waves in orbitals, then, presumably, those orbitals can overlap in such a manner that the waves constructively interfere (as opposed to destructive interference). This constructive interference occurs between the nuclei of the atoms as they approach one another, and it is related to the fact that the negatively charged electrons are attracted to the area between the positively charged nuclei owing to the electrostatic force. In the case of two hydrogen atoms, the spherical 1 s orbitals overlap to form an ellipsoid-like orbital, as shown below (drawing not to scale), that represents the orbital of the bonded molecule H2. This picture is simple enough: each hydrogen has a half-filled 1 s orbital, and the overlapping orbitals yield a single full 1 s orbital (i.e., a full valence shell) shared by both atoms. The hydrogen nuclei approach until the constructive interference of the electron wave functions is balanced by the repulsion of the positively charged nuclei (as well as the repulsion of the electrons, to some extent). At this point, the energy of the two-hydrogen \"\"system\"\" is minimized, and the hydrogen molecule is stable."

"text": "\"Intermolecular Forces Intermolecular Forces Intermolecular Forces The solid and liquid phases of matter for a given compound or atom are the direction consequence of attractive forces between the molecules or atoms. If no attractive forces existed, then a collection of molecules or atoms would remain in the gas phase regardless of temperature or pressure. Intermolecular forces are generally much weaker than covalent bonds. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons, intermolecular forces are electrostatic in origin (opposite charges attract), but do not involve the sharing of electrons. Only 16 k J/mol of energy is required to overcome the intermolecular attraction between HCl molecules in the liquid state (i.e. the energy required to vaporize the sample)However, 431 k J/mol of energy is required to break the covalent bond between the H and Cl atoms in the HCl molecule Thus, when a molecular substance changes states the atoms within the molecule are unchanged (e.g. vaporizing HCl does not break the hydrogen-chlorine chemical bond involving a shared pair of valence electrons)The temperature at which a liquid boils reflects the kinetic energy needed to overcome the attractive intermolecular forces (likewise, the temperature at which a solid melts). Thus, the temperature required to undergo a phase transition is a consequence of the strength of the intermolecular (noncovalent) attractive force. The strength of the intermolecular forces determines the physical properties of the substance such as the characteristic melting temperature, vapor pressure and boiling temperature. Neutral molecules (unlike ions) have no net charge, however, attractive forces exist between neutral molecules. The different types of electrostatic forces include: Dipole-dipole forces London dispersion forces Hydrogen bonding forces Typically, dipole-dipole and dispersion forces are grouped together and termed van der Waals forces (sometimes the hydrogen bonding forces are also included with this group). The term van der Waals forces refer to the fact that these forces produce non-ideal behavior in gases (the effects of which were formalized in the van der Waals equation of non-ideal gases ( click here for more information )."

"text": "\"A MOLECULAR COMPARISON OF GASES, LIQUIDS, AND SOLIDSGases consist of a collection of widely separated particles in constant, chaotic motion. The average energy of the attractions between the particles is much smaller than their average kinetic energy. The lack of strong attractive forces between particles allows a gas to expand to fill its container. In liquids the intermolecular attractive forces are stronger than in gases and are strong enough to hold particles close together. Thus, liquids are much denser and far less compressible than gases. Unlike gases, liquids have a definite volume, independent of the size and shape of their container. The attractive forces in liquids are not strong enough, however, to keep the particles from moving past one another. Thus, any liquid can be poured, and it assumes the shape of whatever portion of its container it occupies. In solids the intermolecular attractive forces are strong enough to hold particles close together and to lock them virtually in place. Solids, like liquids, are not very compressible because the particles have little free space between them."

Your first thought might be to immediately go after the brands that have the highest customer satisfaction ratings, but remember that even non-prescription drugs come with precautions. Diuretic weight loss supplements have caused some users to become hospitalized because of underlying medical issues, so be sure to look at the list of ingredients carefully. Dandelion is an ingredient commonly found in OTC diuretics. Because there are so many different varieties of dandelion, quality and purity levels, you made need to test out several products before you find the right one. Even reading a diuretic foods list may give you ideas about what to include in your diet and what to eliminate for water retention purposes. Nature’s Way, Vitamin Shoppe and many other health supplement manufacturers have their own versions of OTC diuretics. Although the ingredients may be similar, each contains their own customized blend. You can avoid many nasty diuretics side effects by refraining from using diuretics that contain a high concentration of caffeine. If you are not on medications that interact with diuretics, then making a final selection should be simple."

"text": "Weight loss supplements contain a mind-numbing list of substances touted to burn fat, boost metabolism, suppress appetite, control sugar cravings and increase energy. Some claim to help you lose weight by elevating your mood or helping you overcome a genetic predisposition to obesity. A few ingredients have been tested in controlled studies, with inconsistent results. But most have no convincing scientific support behind them or have not been tested at all. Get the rundown on nine common diet supplement ingredients here.1Caffeine Diet pills often contain substances, such as green tea, guarana and yerba mate that claim to have “natural” stimulant properties. But what you’re really getting is caffeine or caffeine-related substances. Caffeine may temporarily boost calorie burning, but this does not mean you will lose much weight. The effects are small and temporary and caffeine tolerance tends to develop with regular use. Moreover, if a diet pill does boost metabolism, then it can also boost heart rate and blood pressure and have other potentially undesirable effects.2Capsaicin Some research suggests that capsaicin and related substances in chili peppers can briefly speed metabolism, increase fat burning and suppress hunger. However, the studies tend to be small, short and poorly designed and have had inconsistent results."

The capsules consisted of dandelion root and dandelion leaves. ADVERTISEMENTHerbalists use dandelion root to detoxify the liver and gallbladder, and dandelion leaves to support kidney function. Dandelion leaves act as a diuretic and increase the amount of urine produced by the body, supporting kidney function. Dandelion leaves are also used to stimulate the appetite and aid digestion. Dandelion Root Aids Liver And Gallbladder Functioning Herbalists use dandelion root to increase bile production to break down fats and remove cholesterol from the body. Studies support that dandelion root extract fights liver fibrosis by inactivating hepatic stellate cells, the the major cell type involved in liver fibrosis, and by supporting liver health by enhancing hepatic (liver) regenerative capabilities. The bitter compound taraxacin of dandelion root possesses cholagogue properties which cause the gallbladder to contract to increase bile flow. The buildup of harmful material in the gallbladder can reduce gallbladder contraction which results in less bile being released to break down fats and to remove cholesterol from the body. Dandelion Root Aids Digestion With dandelion root’s ability to increase bile production in the liver and bile release from the gallbladder, fats and cholesterol are broken down and removed from the body more efficiently, which improves the digestive process."

"text": "Johannes Soellner, Founder at Sodatana e. U. Answered Jul 29, 2017 · Author has 265 answers and 134.4k answer views Several good answers already exist, but I feel I want to etend them a bit, and hence also repeat the basic answer: DNA contains the following nucleotides: Thymine (abbreviated ‘T’) Adenine (abbreviated ‘A’) Guanine (abbreviated ‘G’) Cytosine (abbreviated ‘C’)In RNA Thymine is replaced with Uracil. A and G are purines, C, T and U are pyrimidines. An easy shorthand, the ones with the longer name are the smaller molecules. Base pairing rules: T - A G - C U - A (only in RNA)You will note, a pyrimidine is paired with a purine (large is paired with small). However This is the basic concept required for reading the genetic code. However, if you were to really analyze the nucleotides found in real life DNA and RNA you would find numerous additional nucleotides. Those are modifications of existing nucleotides after replication (DNA) or after transcription (RNA). The specific methylation of DNA (through DNA methyltransferases) plays an important role also in the regulation of transcriptional activity of the region. Cytosine and Adenine can be found methylated, where 5-Methycytosine (5m C) is the typical modification, often associated with so called Cp G islands in context of epigenetic regulation. In bacteria its role is to protect against restriction enzymes."

Nucleic Acids serve as a code 2. Bases of one strand pair with bases of another strand (essential for genetic messaging)How does DNA indirectly determine a protein's function? DNA specifies the primary structure (sequence of amino acids) of all proteins, this primary structure determines the proteins' tertiary structure (3D shape) which determines the protein's function, thus by dictating the sequence of amino acids DNA indirectly determines the function of proteins What happens when a gene becomes active? An enzyme makes a temporary RNA copy of the gene's information Messenger RNA (m RNA) Temporary copy of a gene, determines the sequence of amino acids, takes genetic information through transcription from nucleus to the ribosome, built inside the nucleus Transcription Process of making an m RNA molecule from DNA, more complex in eukaryotes as eukaryotes have 3 RNA polymerases while prokaryotes have 1, the m RNA is the opposite sequence of the Coding DNA Strand except for Uracil replaces thymine Translation Part of protein synthesis, assembly of proteins on a ribosome, uses m RNA to determine the sequence of amino acids, takes place outside the nucleus Ribosomal RNA (r RNA) Type of RNA that makes up ribosomes along with protein, majority of a cell's RNA is this type, built inside the nucleus, NOT involved in coding Transfer RNA (t RNA) Type of RNA with 2 functional sites: one for attachment of an amino acid, the other for carrying the anticodon, carries amino acids to proper locations in the polypeptide chain, built inside the nucleus Genetic Code Code (system of symbols used to store information) that describes how a sequence of bases in DNA/RNA translates into a sequence of amino acids, universal as the code can be applied to all 5 kingdoms of organisms Why are nucleotides grouped in triplets? Using 3 nucleotides at a time allows there to be a code for each amino acid, there are only 4 nucleotides and at least 20 amino acids, so grouping nucleotides in triplets allows there to be 64 combinations for amino acids, providing extra codes that double up to represent the same amino acid Codon Triplet in m RNA, pairs with anticodon of t RNA thus specifying a particular amino acid in the growing polypeptide chain Anticodon Triplet in t RNA, pairs with codon of m RNAHow is genetic information expressed?

It is sometimes called the \"\"molecule of heredity,\"\" because parents transmit copied portions of their own DNA to offspring during reproduction, and because they propagate their traits by doing so. In bacteria and other simple or prokaryotic cell organisms, DNA is distributed more or less throughout the cell. In the complex or eukaryotic cells that make up plants, animals and in other multi-celled organisms, most of the DNA resides in the cell nucleus. The energy-generating organelles known as chloroplasts and mitochondria also carry DNA, as do many viruses. Overview of molecular structure Although sometimes called \"\"the molecule of heredity,\"\" pieces of DNA as people typically think of them are not single molecules. Rather, they are pairs of molecules, which entwine like vines to form a double helix (top half of the illustration at the right). Each vine-like molecule is a strand of DNA: a chemically linked chain of nucleotides, each of which consists of a sugar, a phosphate and one of four kinds of aromatic \"\"bases\"\". Because DNA strands are composed of these nucleotide subunits, they are polymers. The diversity of the bases means that there are four kinds of nucleotides, which are commonly referred to by the identity of their bases."

DNA is the genetic material found in all living organisms, ranging from single-celled bacteria to multicellular mammals. It is found in the nucleus of eukaryotes and in the organelles, chloroplasts, and mitochondria. In prokaryotes, the DNA is not enclosed in a membranous envelope. The entire genetic content of a cell is known as its genome, and the study of genomes is genomics. In eukaryotic cells but not in prokaryotes, DNA forms a complex with histone proteins to form chromatin, the substance of eukaryotic chromosomes. A chromosome may contain tens of thousands of genes. Many genes contain the information to make protein products; other genes code for RNA products."

Identify the different types of RNA and the function of each type of RNA. We previously stated that deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) stores genetic information, while ribonucleic acid (RNA) is responsible for transmitting or expressing genetic information by directing the synthesis of thousands of proteins found in living organisms. But how do the nucleic acids perform these functions? Three processes are required: (1) replication, in which new copies of DNA are made; (2) transcription, in which a segment of DNA is used to produce RNA; and (3) translation, in which the information in RNA is translated into a protein sequence. ( For more information on protein sequences, see Section 19.4 \"\"Protein Synthesis and the Genetic Code\"\" . ) Replication New cells are continuously forming in the body through the process of cell division. For this to happen, the DNA in a dividing cell must be copied in a process known as replication. The complementary base pairing of the double helix provides a ready model for how genetic replication occurs."

Using research from many sources, including chemically accurate models, Watson and Crick discovered how these six subunits were arranged to make the the structure of DNA. The model is called a double helix because two long strands twist around each other like a twisted ladder. The rails of the ladder are made of alternating sugar and phosphate molecules. The steps of the ladder are made of two bases joined together with either two or three weak hydrogen bonds. Nucleotides The basic building block of DNA is called a NUCLEOTIDE. A nucleotide is made up of one sugar molecule, one phosphate molecule and one of the four bases. Here is the structural formula for the four nucleotides of DNA. Note that the purine bases (adenine and guanine) have a double ring structure while the pyrimidine bases (thymine and cytosine) have only a single ring. This was important to Watson and Crick because it helped them figure out how the double helix was formed."

The resulting organism, called a mutant, may have a recognizable change in phenotype compared to the wild type, which is the phenotype most commonly observed in nature. A change in the DNA sequence is conferred to m RNA through transcription, and may lead to an altered amino acid sequence in a protein on translation. Because proteins carry out the vast majority of cellular functions, a change in amino acid sequence in a protein may lead to an altered phenotype for the cell and organism. Effects of Mutations on DNA Sequence There are several types of mutations that are classified according to how the DNA molecule is altered. One type, called a point mutation, affects a single base and most commonly occurs when one base is substituted or replaced by another. Mutations also result from the addition of one or more bases, known as an insertion, or the removal of one or more bases, known as a deletion. Think about It What type of a mutation occurs when a gene has two fewer nucleotides in its sequence? Effects of Mutations on Protein Structure and Function Point mutations may have a wide range of effects on protein function (Figure 1).

"text": "DNA Sequencing After the finding that DNA's information was encoded in its sequence of nucleotides (A, C, T, and G), it was believed that one could find this sequence through a method of analyzing a large number of identical strands of DNA and identifying each nucleotide in order of it's appearance in the DNA sequence. This technique was ultimately discovered in 1977 by Fredrick Sanger. His method, known as Sanger Sequencing, relied on two main principles. DNA can be separated by size. This was briefly discussed in the section on Laboratory Techniques with regards to gel electrophoresis. Keeping in mind that DNA is negatively charged, it will migrate towards the positive electrode when an electric current is applied. When placed in a gel composed of polyacrylamide beads, larger strands of DNA will migrate through the gel slower. Incidentally, the use of polyacrylamide gels instead of agarose gels allow for much greater resolution in separating strands of DNA by size. It allows one to actually distinguish a strand of DNA 400 base pairs long from a strand of DNA 401 base pairs long. As a result, polyacrylamide gels would be capable of resolving even 1 base pair differences in DNA, making this very useful for sequencing."

System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional; it operates automatically and quickly, with little or no effort and no sense of voluntary control. System 2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. It allocates attention to the effortful mental activities that demand it. The operations of System 2 are often associated with the subjective experience of agency, choice, and concentration.

Memory loss may result from two-sided (bilateral)damage to parts of the brain vital for memory storage, processing, or recall (the limbic system,including the hippocampus in the medial temporal lobe). Description Amnesia can be a symptom of several neurodegenerative diseases; however, people whoseprimary symptom is memory loss (amnesiacs), typically remain lucid and retain their sense of self. They may even be aware that they suffer from a memory disorder. People who experience amnesia have been instrumental in helping brain researchers determinehow the brain processes memory. Until the early 1970s, researchers viewed memory as a singleentity. Memory of new experiences, motor skills, past events, and previous conditioning weregrouped together in one system that relied on a specific area of the brain. If all memory were stored in the same way, it would be reasonable to deduce that damage to thespecific brain area would cause complete memory loss."

"text": "You’ve probably experienced embarrassing moments because of short-term memory loss. It’s awkward when you can’t remember someone’s name when you met only ten minutes earlier. It’s also frustrating to find the keys that you put away only five minutes before. You can avoid these situations if you know what causes short-term memory loss. You may feel surprised that you do most of them, unconsciously, every day.10 Things That Cause Short-Term Memory Loss Various studies suggest that bad personal habits and poor lifestyle choices may lead to cognitive impairment. You may do everyday things that may impact your brain without realizing it.1. Not Getting Enough Sleep First of all, you may lack the 8 hours of sleep that you sorely need. Those who don’t get enough of it are at risk of cognitive impairment. Short-term memory loss happens because the body doesn’t have the chance to regenerate new cells. Brigham and Women’s Hospital has discovered that getting at least seven hours of sleep can help to keep one’s memory intact.2."

The brain is certainly a hard organ to understand -- the mysteries of the brain is something even science hasn't been able to crack. Many times during the day, we often forget what we intended on doing. For instance, we walk into a room and suddenly forget what we came there for. It must be noted that short term memory loss can be adjudged as serious or not on the basis of a common threshold. Meaning, when encountered at a very basic level, it isn't indicative of any serious mental condition. But if it happens all too frequently and is severe at times, it can be a cause for worry.12 HEALTHY WAYS TO HANDLE STRESSIn this article, we look at the main causes for short term memory loss. As explained by science, the major cause for short term memory loss is altering of brain structure and nervous complications.

If you’re like many women going through the change of life and are having these symptoms, you may be having trouble remembering your keys, your appointments or even why you walked into a room. This is because memory loss can be a symptom of perimenopause. This might leave you wondering about what the underlying causes of memory loss during perimenopause are and what you can do about it. Memory loss as a result perimenopause has received a lot of attention in the media lately. From Shelley Emling on the Huffington Post to a recent article in Scientific American reporting on a recent study that documents memory loss during menopause, this issue has been highlighted many times. And to a relief of a great many women who are experiencing this! But what causes the memory loss in the first place? During perimenopause, your estrogen levels drop. When this happens, the neurotransmitters in your brain that are influenced by estrogen are affected."

R. Iegosyn/Shutterstock When I look back now, I can't imagine how any of us were able to do it. And yet we did. The mind's capacity to store and recall information is truly wondrous. And we've learned a lot about memory and learning since I attended medical school. Though much of what follows are techniques I used to survive my first two years of medical school, much of the science that proves they work is new.8 Strategies for Remembering Become interested in what you're learning. We're all better remembering what interests us. Few people, for example, have a difficult time remembering the names of people they find attractive. If you're not intrinsically interested in what you're learning or trying to remember, you must find a way to become so. I have to admit I wasn't so good at this in medical school—the Krebs cycle (I provide the link only to prove how immensely boring it is) just didn't excite me or relate to anything I found even remotely exciting."

It is found in the inner folds of the bottom middle section of the brain, known as the temporal lobe. Humans have known about the hippocampus for more than 4 centuries. It is one of the most studied parts of the brain. The name comes from the Greek words hippo, meaning horse, and kampo, meaning monster, as its shape resembles that of a sea horse.

"text": "\"amnesia Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia . Amnesia Definition Amnesia refers to the loss of memory. Memory loss may result from two-sided (bilateral)damage to parts of the brain vital for memory storage, processing, or recall (the limbic system,including the hippocampus in the medial temporal lobe). Description Amnesia can be a symptom of several neurodegenerative diseases; however, people whoseprimary symptom is memory loss (amnesiacs), typically remain lucid and retain their sense of self. They may even be aware that they suffer from a memory disorder. People who experience amnesia have been instrumental in helping brain researchers determinehow the brain processes memory. Until the early 1970s, researchers viewed memory as a singleentity. Memory of new experiences, motor skills, past events, and previous conditioning weregrouped together in one system that relied on a specific area of the brain. If all memory were stored in the same way, it would be reasonable to deduce that damage to thespecific brain area would cause complete memory loss. However, studies of amnesiacs counterthat theory."

Think of it as a temporary workspace where information is consciously registered before being processed into long term memory. A lot of short term data is thrown straight out and is never committed to long term memory. But when we immediately throw out data we want to remember, it becomes a problem. So how can we retain the important stuff so that it sticks when we really want to remember something? In this article, we'll look at the causes of short term memory loss and how you can actively improve it through daily brain training, mnemonic devices, an ultimate memory improvement software and memory supplements. What Causes Short Term Memory Loss? There are many things that disrupt your conscious processing of new memories. For example, if you can't absorb new information properly, then you have no hope of remembering it later. It's quite normal to forget things committed to recent memory, like what you had for breakfast or where you put your keys."

These tests may include: Nerve conduction study. This test measures electrical nerve impulses and functioning in your muscles and nerves through electrodes placed on your skin. The study measures the electrical impulses in your nerve signals when a small current passes through the nerve. Test results tell your doctor whether you have a damaged nerve. Electromyography (EMG). During an EMG, your doctor inserts a needle electrode through your skin into various muscles. The test evaluates the electrical activity of your muscles when they contract and when they're at rest.

There are two types of nerves cell that live in the brain and different parts of the body; Central and Peripheral nerve. Central nerve is a nerve cell that lives in the brain or within the spinal cord, while the Peripheral nerves are the ones outside the brain and spinal cord and leave the spine to go into the arms and legs. “ Pinched nerve” used to describe a kind of damage or injury to a nerve or set of nerves.

This causes pressure on the nerve, producing inflammation. Pinched nerves can occur anywhere in the body. When a nerve coming from the spinal cord in the neck is compressed, it is called cervical radiculopathy. This condition typically causes pain along the nerve path, extending into the neck and one arm. Tingling and numbness along the nerve path and weakness in the arm may also occur. Cervical radiculopathy is commonly due to degeneration of the spine in the neck, causing the nerve to be pinched by bones, ligaments or discs. Symptoms caused by a pinched nerve in the neck often improve with simple self-care measures, such as rest, medications and heat or cold therapy.

"text": "Is a Pinched Nerve Causing Your Shoulder Pain? Signs Diagnosis Imaging tests Treatment Shouldering the pain Shoulder pain can develop from a variety of sources, such as tendinitis, arthritis, torn cartilage, and many other medical conditions and injuries. One other common cause of shoulder pain is a pinched nerve in the upper spine, also known as cervical radiculopathy. A nerve can become pinched when bone spurs form around the spinal discs. These discs are the “shock absorbers” between the vertebrae in your spine. Bone spurs are new formations of bone that grow when discs start to weaken with age. As you get older, the vertebrae become compressed and the discs become thinner. Bone spurs grow around the discs to strengthen them, but that new bone growth can put pressure on the nerve root in the spine. Signs Signs of a pinched nerve If a pinched nerve is causing your shoulder pain, you’ll need a thorough physical exam of your neck and shoulder to diagnose the problem. However, there are signs that may help steer you and your doctor in the right direction."

Get married in style, plan your wedding. Learn More at planyourwedding.tk7 Answers Jeffrey Junig, MD, Ph D Medicine and Healthcare & Neuroscience, School of Medicine and Dentistry at the University of Roche... Answered Jul 28, 2016 · Author has 79 answers and 207.1k answer views Dizziness usually comes from an abnormal signal from the 8th cranial nerve, which innervates the vestibular apparatus. That apparatus includes the ‘semicircular canals’— tubes with liquid that moves when the head rotates in certain directions. The movement of liquid in those tubes causes small hairs to bend, sending signals to the brain that are interpreted to provide information about motion of the head and body. If an abnormal signal enters the brain from those nerves, the person may feel a sensation of dizziness, i.e. vertigo. Abnormal signals could come from compression of a nerve by tumor, damage to a nerve from trauma, infection of the nerve or infection of tissue that the nerve passes through, damage to the vestibular apparatus— or things that confuse the vestibular apparatus. For example, cold water injected deep into the ear canal will cause the liquid in the canals to move, giving a sense of vertigo (that can be very severe and uncomfortable). That test is one way to measure brainstem function in cases where brain death is suspected; if the brainstem is working, the eyes will move back and forth during the test, called ‘nystagmus’, as the brain tries to get the eyes to focus on a rotating visual field. Most people referring to ‘pinched nerves’ are thinking of peripheral nerves coming from the spine, or in an extremity."

They are also used to help with other conditions, such as bulimia and chronic pain. These medications help many people with mental health problems. However, they don’t work for everyone, and even when they do work well, they can only do so much. They often work best when they are combined with talk therapy, support from family and friends, and self-care, such as regular exercise, a nutritious diet and getting enough sleep. Learning how to live well in spite of your distress is also important. Antidepressant medications can take up to several weeks to be fully effective. Early signs that the medication is working include improved sleep, appetite and energy. Improvement in mood usually comes later."

"text": "\"TOUCHED BY LYME: The \"\"all-in-your-head\"\" write-off for Lyme disease Guest blogger Jennifer Crystal explores something almost every Lyme patient comes up against at some point in their health journey. Almost every Lyme patient I’ve ever met was confronted, at some point in their quest for diagnosis, with the “all-in-your-head” write-off. The first doctors and nurses I encountered when I got sick back in 1997 quickly moved to this condescending, all-encompassing “diagnosis” when routine lab work showed nothing awry. Instead of looking deeper, doing more specialized tests, or asking me more specific questions, these practitioners whispered, “Maybe you should see someone in counseling about these problems. ”Because these doctors and nurses couldn’t solve the problem themselves, they turned it back on me, insinuating ugly labels like “hypochondriac” and “hysterical.” I was told to learn to better manage anxiety and stress. The problem with this type of write-off is two-fold: it invalidates the patient narrative of physical disease—which can, at times, mirror or accompany psychological illness; and it invalidates legitimate depression and anxiety as contrived conditions that do not deserve recognition or care from doctors treating physical ailments. Depression is not a diagnosis of elimination. It is not something that doctors should land on as the solution when no other answer can be immediately found. Depression is a chemical imbalance in the brain, and proper medication can ameliorate, if not cure, symptoms for people legitimately suffering from it."

However, studies have shown that a small number of people (especially people younger than 25) who take antidepressants for any condition may experience worsening depression, other mental/mood symptoms, or suicidal thoughts/attempts. Therefore, it is very important to talk with the doctor about the risks and benefits of antidepressant medication (especially for people younger than 25), even if treatment is not for a mental/mood condition. Tell the doctor immediately if you notice worsening depression /other psychiatric conditions, unusual behavior changes (including possible suicidal thoughts/attempts), or other mental/mood changes (including new/worsening anxiety, panic attacks, trouble sleeping, irritability, hostile/angry feelings, impulsive actions, severe restlessness, very rapid speech). Be especially watchful for these symptoms when a new antidepressant is started or when the dose is changed.

GENERIC NAME: BUPROPION - ORAL (bue-PROE-pee-on)BRAND NAME (S): Wellbutrin Warning | Medication Uses | How To Use | Side Effects | Precautions | Drug Interactions | Overdose | Notes | Missed Dose | Storage WARNING: Bupropion is an antidepressant used to treat a variety of conditions, including depression, other mental/mood disorders, and smoking cessation. Antidepressants can help prevent suicidal thoughts /attempts and provide other important benefits. However, studies have shown that a small number of people (especially people younger than 25) who take antidepressants for any condition may experience new or worsening depression, other mental/mood symptoms, or suicidal thoughts/attempts. Therefore, it is very important to talk with the doctor about the risks and benefits of antidepressant medication, even if treatment is not for a mental/mood condition. Tell the doctor immediately if you notice new or worsening depression /other psychiatric conditions, unusual behavior changes (including possible suicidal thoughts/attempts), or other mental/mood changes (including new/worsening anxiety, panic attacks, trouble sleeping, irritability, hostile/angry feelings, impulsive actions, severe restlessness, very rapid speech). Be especially watchful for these symptoms when a new antidepressant is started or when the dose is changed. If you are using bupropion to quit smoking, stop taking bupropion and contact your doctor immediately if you experience any of the symptoms listed above. Tell your doctor right away if you have any of these symptoms after stopping treatment."

"text": "You may have read that staph infections are getting out of control in public places like schools, hospitals, and gyms. There are strains of Staphylococcus aureus that have become resistant to antibiotics, which makes getting rid of staph infections quite difficult, but those strains that are absolutely resistant are rare. But it bears emphasis: if you think you’re suffering from a staph infection, and medical attention is available, you should see a physician as soon as possible. Impetigo is no longer considered a minor infection, and a Staph infection can be life threatening. Why has Staph become a major problem today? Probably because we’ve been using antibacterial soaps and antibiotics like they’re going out of style. Whenever antibiotics are used to cure an infection, there are always a few surviving bacteria who make it through the holocaust. While the chances of those bacteria surviving your body’s own defenses (sans antibiotics) are low, it can happen, and it has happened and that’s why we face what you might call a strain of super-bacteria. So, let’s talk about how you can prevent impetigo and how to treat mild cases of impetigo. Impetigo Symptoms Itching of the Skin Redness of the Skin Sores on the Skin Yellow/Gray Scabs Types of Staph Infections While Impetigo is almost always caused by the Staphylococcus aureus bacterium and is the most common type of staph infection, it’s not the only type of infections that may be caused by Staph."

It can start from something as simple as a tiny scratch or a sore that looks akin to a fever blister. A blister is then formed and it begins to secrete a brownish-yellow covering. It then has the ability to spread to others through use of their personal items. This can be things like washcloths, clothes, telephone or kitchen utensils. This skin condition can appear as one of two types, non-bullous and bullous impetigo. The type that is most often encountered is the non-bullous strain.

Why Do Kids Get Impetigo? Kids can be more likely to develop impetigo when their skin is already irritated by another problem, such as eczema, poison ivy, insect bites, and cuts or scrapes. Scratching a sore or a rash is a common cause — for example, poison ivy can get infected and turn into impetigo. Making sure that kids wash their hands and faces well can help prevent it.

Don’t be alarmed if it’s impetigo. Impetigo — one of the most common childhood diseases — can be treated with medications approved by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Impetigo is a common bacterial skin infection that can produce blisters or sores anywhere on the body, but usually on the face (around the nose and mouth), neck, hands, and diaper area. It’s contagious, preventable, and manageable with antibiotics, says pediatrician Thomas D. Smith, MD, of FDA. What Causes Impetigo Two types of bacteria found on our skin cause impetigo: Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes (which also causes strep throat). Most of us go about our lives carrying around these bacteria without a problem, Smith says. But then a minor cut, scrape or insect bite allows the bacteria to cause an infection, resulting in impetigo. Anyone can get impetigo — and more than once, Smith says. Although impetigo is a year-round disease, it occurs most often during the warm weather months."

The disease appears as red sores around the face, especially around the nose and mouth areas. The infection is especially hard on the child as these sores can often burst causing crusts and scabs. The good thing about impetigo is that, even though it can be violent, it will go away on its own in a matter of weeks. Though, its duration can be shortened with the right set of antibiotics!What Exactly Is Infantigo (Impetigo)? The disease is usually caused by staphylococcus aureus (prevalent in colder countries), or more rarely streptococcus pyogenes bacteria. Even though impetigo can appear in adults, around 70% of affected individuals are children; as a matter of fact, this is one of the most common skin infections in children in the US. Many parents are baffled by this disease and say “I take good care of my child`s hygiene,” what you need to know is that infantigo is not caused by the lack of proper personal hygiene. It is caused by bacteria which spreads rapidly, especially in tight, smaller communities and schools."

It is true that mosquitoes are amongst the most dangerous creatures in this world. They become the reason of a lot of diseases; some of them are minor while others are life-killing. The U. S. Center for Disease Control has reported that every year more than 1.5 million people around the globe lose their lives due to mosquito-borne diseases. Let us take a look at the 10 deadliest diseases caused by mosquitoes.1. Dengue Fever Aedes Mosquito Dengue fever is, no doubt, one of the most dangerous and deadliest diseases caused by mosquitoes. It is common among the people living in tropical and subtropical climates. Aedes mosquito is responsible for this disease. Dengue mosquitoes multiply in the cells of our body, causing high fever, headache, joints pain and rashes as the initial disease symptoms. The doctors recommend acetaminophen; however, no certain medications and treatments are so far available for this disease.2."

"text": "Planning The Ultimate Guide to Vaccinations and Long-Term Travel SHARE ON: Lauren — March 2, 2011Last updated: 26th September 2016. When I first started to plan my trip around the world, working out which vaccines I needed to get and where to get them was one of the most daunting tasks. I struggled to find one single website that could explain which vaccines I needed for which country, what the diseases actually were, and what sort of risk I’d be taking by not getting them. I’ve been researching solidly for the past three months and have combined everything I’ve learned in this post. There are so many vaccinations. Which ones do you need and which ones don’t you? How expensive will they be? Can you get some for free? Is it possible to have lots together or do they need to be spread out? How soon before your departure date should you start getting them?"

May 7th 2016Ever witness a classmate or coworker plunge face-first into his desk and cause a loud commotion in an otherwise quiet classroom or office? While heavy bouts of sleepiness usually signify tiredness (and possibly an indication of boredom), excessive daytime sleepiness can also signal something more medically significant. Read on to see if you or someone you know is at risk. What Is Excessive Daytime Sleepiness? Rather than being a disease within itself, excessive daytime sleepiness is seen more as a symptom or warning sign for other possible illnesses. This symptom affects about 20 percent of adults in the United States, and is the number one reason why patients attend sleep clinics to determine the origin of this abnormal behavior. While there are numerous potential reasons why a person may experience this condition, the side effects and consequences are generally the same: The affected individual will suffer from a decreased quality of life due to interference with daily activities, decreased productivity, and will have a higher risk of hurting himself. Excessive daytime sleepiness is sometimes confused with hypersomnia, although hypersomnia actually refers to a condition where a person constantly falls asleep, even after getting a full night's rest. Also, hypersomnia does not just describe sleepiness during the day, but at virtually any time."

Find immediate answers to commonly asked questions, such as do black flies transmit diseases, can you get encephalitis from black flies and more. Black Fly Dangers | Midge Dangers | No-See-Um Dangers Frequently Asked Questions about Black Fly Dangers Q: Can Black Flies carry diseases? A: Yes, they have been known to transmit diseases to humans and animals. In Africa, Central America and South America, Black Flies can transmit two diseases to humans: onchocerciasis, known as “river blindness,” and mansonellosis. In many countries of the world, Black Flies transmit diseases to animals including bovine onchocerciasis in cattle and horses, and leucocytozoonosis in wild birds. Q: Can people die from Black Fly bites? A: If a person has a severe allergic reaction to the bite and does not get prompt medical attention, death can result. Someone else could develop symptoms of “black fly fever” which include fever, headache, nausea and swelling of the lymph nodes. In regions where onchocerciasis is found, Black Fly bite victims may develop blindness, though it rarely leads to death."

"text": "How To Remove Skin Tags There are several methods that can be used to remove a skin tag. First, let's discuss the methods that are performed in a doctor's office. Family physicians and dermatologists frequently remove skin tags. Occasionally, a cosmetic surgeon, gynecologist or ophthalmologist will remove one depending on the location. The three ways doctors remove skin tags is by cutting them off, burning them, or freezing them. Skin tags can be cut off with a scalpel or medical shears. They can be burned off with a medical cautery device or they can be frozen with liquid nitrogen, in which case the skin tag then falls off. In all three instances, the idea is to stop the blood flow to the skin tag. In some cases, such as a large growth or multiple skin tags within a small area, a local anesthesia may be used. Usually, no anesthesia is required."

More on those questions shortly. Skin tags are just benign pieces of skin. Many times they grow in the folds of the skin, commonly appearing on the neck, armpits, and around the eyes. Some people get anal skin tags, and they can even appear on their testicles or nipples. Having skin tags on these sensitive or highly visible areas of the face or body is what leads people to go the doctors to have them removed."

Although they don’t require treatment, they can still cause irritation or discomfort, and might be not very aesthetically pleasing. Apparently skin tags are common, and according to the NIH (National Institutes of Health) USA, approximately 46% of people have skin tags. Advertisement You can go to a dermatologist that can cut off the skin tag or wart, tie it off, burn it or freeze it. You can also use hydrogen peroxide (find all the details in my article on how to remove skin tags and warts with hydrogen peroxide ). But what I’m going to talk about today is how to remove skin tags and warts at home using apple cider vinegar (ACV). It’s also worth noting that apple cider vinegar is a great treatment for pimples, acne and other skin problems. An important note is that before you attempt to remove skin growth at home, you need to know that you are removing skin tags – which is a benign condition – and not a mole or any other lesion that can be malignant. Therefore what you are trying to remove should have been previously diagnosed by a health professional as a harmless skin tag. Advertisement What Are Skin Tags?"

This leaves you paying a large bill for what is considered a fairly simple process. Before you head off to the doctors office, why not try these simple home methods for getting rid of skin tags. The first option you have for getting rid of your skin tags is to simply cut them off. It is important to note when doing this that there is a serious risk of infection if you use this method improperly. You should not only use brand new implements for this procedure, but you should also sterilize them first. You can clean them either by soaking them in a sanitizer (the kind you clean yourself with, not your house) or putting them in fire for a minute or so. Just be sure to let them cool first if you put them in fire. You can clip off the skin tags with small scissors, but you may find it easier to use nail clippers. Simply snip the tag off at the bottom near the healthy skin."

In fact, they may look virtually identical to the untrained eye, but there are some quick and easy ways to make this important distinction. One way is to seek the opinion of a doctor, but that can be embarrassing. It’s likely to be something that you want to avoid until you know what is wrong. Do not despair, though, as you can find out the difference between skin tags and genital warts. What does an accurate diagnosis mean regarding treatment? Well, getting rid of skin tags is simple with a proven over-the-counter (OTC) method. If you have genital warts, however, you should seek advice from a doctor. You could just have a wart, but it could also be something that needs medical attention, such as a sexually transmitted disease (STD)."

"text": "\"Removing Moles and Skin Tags - Topic Overview Articles On Removing Moles and Skin Tags Topic Overview Related Information Credits Moles are skin growths made up of cells that produce color (pigment). A mole can appear anywhere on the skin, alone or in groups. Most people get a few moles during their first 20 years of life. They are usually brown in color but can be blue, black, or flesh-colored. Most moles are harmless and don't cause pain or other symptoms unless you rub them or they bump against something. Skin tags are small, soft pieces of skin that stick out on a thin stem. They most often appear on the neck, armpits, upper trunk, and body folds. The cause of skin tags is not known. They are harmless. Why remove a mole or skin tag?"

"text": "updated Mon June 28, 2010What are skin tags and can I remove them myself? Asked by Wallace Roberts, Spanaway, Washington Why do people get skin tags and how can they be removed with home remedies? Can I just cut it off with a pair of scissors or nail clippers if they are sterilized? Living Well Expert Dr. Jennifer Shu Pediatrician, Children's Medical Group Expert answer Thank you for your question. Skin tags are small growths (usually just a few millimeters) of flesh that typically appear on the neck, underarms, eyelids, skin folds and other areas that may be frequently rubbed or irritated. They occur commonly starting in middle age, and may be associated with pregnancy, obesity, diabetes, and other health conditions. Sometimes they may actually be cancerous skin lesions, which should be checked by a dermatologist. Most of the time, skin tags will turn into a scab and fall off on their own. However, some people prefer to have them removed, either for cosmetic reasons or because the tags may rub against clothing or otherwise be bothersome. There are over-the-counter preparations designed to remove skin tags, moles, warts and the like."

"text": "Understanding Melanoma: Diagnosing Melanoma Skin Biopsy If the physical examination shows evidence of a suspected melanoma, your doctor will recommend a skin biopsy, a procedure to remove all or part of the mole for evaluation under a microscope. The biopsy provides important information: Whether the mole is benign or malignant If malignant, how deeply the tumor has penetrated the skin and whether there are associated signs of ulceration A skin biopsy is quick and about as uncomfortable as having blood drawn. The physician will clean the area to be biopsied with alcohol and then inject a small amount of local anesthetic. Because the anesthetic makes the skin swell and has a low p H, it burns for about 5 to 10 seconds. It is similar to the anesthetic used by dentists. Once the anesthetic has taken effect, the doctor will use a scalpel, a razor blade, or a small circular blade called a “punch” to free a small piece of skin. Because the skin is numb, the patient can feel pressure but no pain during this part of the procedure. If a deep biopsy is taken, 1 or 2 stitches are used to close the wound. If the biopsy is superficial, the wound is left open to heal like deep scrape. The whole process usually takes about 5 minutes."

These hanging bits of skin typically appear in certain parts of body where clothes rub against skin or where there is skin to skin friction. Therefore they are commonly seen in skin folds of underarms, neck, groin and inner thighs. They are not present since birth but they develop with growing age. At least 30 percent of adults may have skin tags somewhere on their body including inner thighs. Development of skin tags has genetic predisposition, therefore it may be seen running in families. The protrusions are soft and often oval in shape. They are flesh colored or slightly darker than the underlying skin attached by a thin stalk to the skin. Most skin tags are few millimeter in length, rarely they may grow more than half inch in length."

Fortunately, this article contains completely natural remedies to cure your warts, moles, blackheads, skin tags, and age spots! But first: What Makes Our Skin So Important? Our skin has three layers that we know as epidermis (the outermost visible layer), dermis (the middle layer), and hypodermis (the innermost and thickest layer). In fact, skin is our bodies’ largest organ in both size and weight, and serves three functions: [1]Skin protectsus from Elements like rain, snow, and even the sun External impacts and pressure Micro-organisms, chemicals, and radiation Skin regulates Metabolism and synthesis of Vitamin DBody temperature, peripheral (arms, legs, hands, and feet) circulation, and fluid balance Skin senses Hot and cold temperatures Pressure and pain Despite the protection that we get from our skin, it isn’t impenetrable. When we suffer cuts, big or small, those wounds can affect all three layers of skin. Thankfully we can spot warts, moles, blackheads, skin tags, and age spots quickly because they grow on the layer of skin we can see. Conventional Removal Methods Advertisement If it’s too painful or you just don’t want to wait for who knows how many years, your doctor will gladly take care of those warts, skin tags, blackheads, and more.

"text": "Warts are caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), which has over 100 types. Different types affect people in different ways, usually depending on the strength of their immune system. Some strains (like the one that causes common warts) are relatively harmless, while others can pose much more serious problems. Because warts are caused by a virus, they can be spread to other parts of your body and to other people as well. If mainstream methods have not worked for you (or you’d rather avoid treatments involving strange chemicals) try some of these straightforward home remedies for warts instead. They may not seem particularly extraordinary, but that makes them all the better in my opinion.1. Apple Cider Vinegar ACV is an all-star in the world of home remedies, so it’s not surprising that it’s first on a list of how to get rid of your wart. It’s simple, and many people have found success with it. It does not actually kill the virus, but because of its high acidity it attacks the “flesh” that makes up the wart, kills the physical wart itself, and allows it to peel naturally from the skin. In theory, this takes the virus with it, and it shouldn’t return anytime soon."

Most of these fleshy bits above or under the penis shaft are harmless just like the tags on other parts of the body. However, caution must be exercised before you try to remove them yourself using the DIY or home based methods. Extra special care must be taken if they appear above the head of the penis or under it near the opening. The reason being these areas are more sensitive and in more frequent contact with the clothes, toilet paper, water, urine etc. Apart from the penile area, you can also get them on scrotum, perineum and other private areas.

After your first prenatal visit and until week 28 you should plan to see the doctor once a month. Understanding what to expect with your pregnancy week-by-week will help you calm any fears you may have and make the best possible preparations. Here’s what you can expect during your pregnancy weeks 10-16: Prenatal Appointments: Weeks 10 – 12Your 2 ndprenatal appointment occurs between your 10 thand 12 thweek of pregnancy. Starting now, you’ll realize that almost every prenatal appointment starts with a nurse taking your weight and blood pressure and with a urine sample. The urine test looks for bacteria and high levels of sugar and protein in your system, which could indicate diabetes, urinary tract infection, kidney disease, or preeclampsia (high blood pressure). Preeclampsia typically occurs later in pregnancy if it occurs at all. During the second prenatal appointment, the doctor will discuss all the results of the pap, blood, and urine testing completed at your first prenatal appointment. It’s also the time when you’ll discuss the results of the cystic fibrosis test (if administered), the Rh factor test, and the notes from your genetics counseling visit. If you choose to have a nuchal translucency screening (also called an NT scan) to test for the possibility of Down syndrome, this will be administered during your second appointment."

Here, all you need to know about how your baby grows this essential system. Since you found out you were pregnant, one of the first milestones you’ve likely eagerly been awaiting is hearing the thump, thump of your baby’s heartbeat. It’s one of the most reassuring sounds there is. And though it probably will sound the same to you from checkup to checkup, there are big changes happening to the heart and circulatory system every week!Even though at 4 weeks pregnant that sweet, sweet heartbeat hasn’t yet arrived, a distinct blood vessel has formed inside your embryo, which will soon develop into your baby’s heart and circulatory (blood) system. In the early stages, the heart resembles a tube that subsequently twists and divides, eventually forming the heart and valves (which open and close to release blood from the heart to the body). In fact, by week 5, the heart tube begins to beat spontaneously, though you can't hear it. During those first few weeks, precursor blood vessels also begin to form in the embryo. When you’ll hear baby’s heartbeat for the first time By 6 weeks, your baby’s heart — now beating 110 times a minute — has four hollow chambers, each with an entrance and an exit to allow blood to flow in and out of each chamber. In just two more weeks, that number will rise to 150-170 beats a minute ( here's what it sounds like)."

Normally heard during the first trimester of pregnancy, this amazing sound may help bring home the reality of impending parenthood. This experience also provides one of earliest, audible contacts you and your husband have with your growing child. Knowing when you might first hear your baby’s heartbeat allows you to prepare for this big moment and invite others to be present at this exciting, prenatal appointment. Early Development Your baby’s heart begins developing soon after conception. Although you may not be able to hear a beating heart yet, a vaginal ultrasound performed about 6 weeks after your last period may indicate the presence of a growing embryo. At this point, your baby can measure between 2 and 4 millimeters between his head and rump. Even though it is still early in your first trimester, your doctor may notice a regular fluttering movement, signaling the beating of a tiny heart. Tools and Devices In addition to the vaginal ultrasound, which provides the earliest method for detecting your baby’s heartbeat, your doctor may listen with an external fetal monitor. Placed on your abdomen, this instrument bounces harmless sound waves off your baby’s heart, making an audible sound."

Yet other mothers are surprised when they find out that they are having twins. The truth is that while there are several signs and symptoms of a twin pregnancy, there is also tremendous overlap with the signs and symptoms of singleton pregnancies. It is impossible to definitively know whether you are carrying twins (or multiple babies) by simply gauging how you feel or going off of what a home pregnancy test shows.

"text": "\"Home / Pregnancy / Prenatal Care & Tests / Prenatal Care Is it safe to use a fetal Doppler to listen to my baby's heartbeat at home? Thomas Moorematernal fetal medicine specialist It's not a good idea. The U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warns that a handheld Doppler \"\"should only be used when there's a medical need and only by, or under the supervision of, a healthcare professional.\"\" For example, your practitioner will use a Doppler to listen to your baby's heartbeat during your prenatal appointments. You can buy a Doppler yourself and use it at home to try to detect your baby's heartbeat, but it's not as easy as it looks. And the long-term effects of repeatedly exposing a baby to ultrasound waves from these devices are unknown. Here's how it works: A Doppler probe sends out high-frequency sound waves that pass through your skin and tissue and into your baby. When the waves encounter movement, such as your baby's heart beating, they bounce back to the device. The device then translates the movement into sound, which the machine amplifies so you can hear it. The problem is that anything that moves inside you (whether it's your baby kicking, air moving in your intestines, or blood flowing in your arteries) is also translated into sound."

Suddenly, you feel dizzy and a cold sweat breaks out across your forehead. Is this a hot flash, or the beginning of a heart attack? If you’ve felt this way, you’re not alone. Heart disease is the number one killer of post-menopausal women, and the symptoms of menopause and heart attack can be startlingly similar. Dr. Eileen Hsich, Director of Women’s Heart Failure Center, Heart & Vascular Institute, Cleveland Clinic, explains how to tell the difference between your heart and your hormones. What common symptoms of menopause are similar to those of a heart attack? Symptoms of menopause include fatigue, racing heart, palpitations, headaches and hot/cold flashes. When it comes to a heart attack, men may feel a crushing pain in their chests, but women often feel less obvious sensations such as unusual fatigue, sweating, indigestion, irregular heartbeat, dizziness, nausea and weakness."

By Robin Elise Weiss, Ph D | Reviewed by Anita Sadaty, MDUpdated July 06, 2017Share Pin Email Print Blend Images - Jose Luis Pelaez Inc/Getty Images How do you know if your baby's heart rate is normal? This is a question that you probably have from the first time you hear your baby's heartbeat. What you hear might really surprise you. Most people are not prepared for how quickly a baby's heart beats in pregnancy. Though there are many words to describe the moment that you first hear your baby's heartbeat, most people use words like galloping to describe how the heart rate sounds. While the heart rate in pregnancy is faster than an adult's heart rate, the truth is that a normal fetal heart rate changes during the stages of pregnancy. How Your Baby's Heart Rate Changes At about five weeks gestation, your baby's heart begins to beat. At this point, a normal fetal heart rate is about the same heart rate as the mother's: 80 to 85 beats per minute (bpm)."

"text": "Overview Find a Doctor Causes & Symptoms Treatment Next Steps What Is Ventricular Septal Defect? Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a birth defect in babies that causes a hole in the wall (or septum) between a baby’s lower heart chambers. Heart chambers are also called right and left ventricles. VSD is congenital, which means babies are born with this condition. If your baby has VSD, red blood (oxygen-rich blood) can freely mix with oxygen-poor blood (or blue blood). Red blood is able to flow into the left ventricle through the hole in your baby’s septum. Babies are born with different types of ventricular septal defects. Some babies are born with holes in different areas of their septum (or heart wall). Where your baby’s hole is located determines the type of VSD your baby has. Babies can also have different sized holes in their septum."

"text": "\"How Early Can You Hear a Baby's Heartbeat?by STEVE KIM June 13, 2017As an expectant mom, one of your early concerns during the first trimester will be, 'When can I hear my baby's heartbeat?' In previous decades, a stethoscope-like device was the only available tool, and only the doctor could actually hear the heartbeat. Today, modern technology such as the fetal doppler and obstetrical ultrasound enable earlier detection of the heartbeat, and moms can also listen in on those exciting first heart sounds of their baby. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Your Pregnancy Initially, you need to know the terminology that your doctor uses when referring to the \"\"age\"\" of your growing baby. Estimated gestational age (EGA) refers to the length of pregnancy after the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP) and is usually expressed in weeks and days. Note that this does not refer to the date when your baby was actually conceived. Conceptional age (CA) is the actual fetal age and refers to the length of pregnancy from the date of conception. Although you might guess that conceptual age is the logical method for dating your baby’s age, doctor's actually use the EGA method when referring to your baby’s age. Your Baby's Developing Heart Early in the fifth week of pregnancy, your baby’s heart begins to form. Your baby’s heart will start beating at 22 or 23 days post-conception, which is during the fifth week of your pregnancy."

During the third trimester doctors recommend tracking fetal movements to make sure baby is healthy; and as Arlene Eisenberg writes in “What to Expect When You’re Expecting,” “Anxiety over when the first movement will be felt is often replaced by anxiety that fetal movements don’t seem frequent enough, or that they haven’t been noticed for a while.” There are some ways to get baby’s attention, but if fetal movement isn’t felt enough, call the doctor. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Lie Down The gentle rocking of mom’s everyday movement most often lulls the baby to sleep, hence baby sleeps all day and wakes up when things get calm at night. To alert baby, simply lie down for an hour or two and chances are she’ll wake up and move around. While you are reclining, change your position occasionally, between lying on your back to lying on your side, for example. Have a Drink Drink a glass of milk or orange juice. The cold, refreshing boost to mom’s digestive system will many times wake baby up and he’ll make all kinds of movements in response to the glucose. Drink natural sugars as opposed to high fructose corn syrup and caffeine. Have a Snack The same idea applies to drinking and eating a snack; baby likes the change from mom’s sedentary digestive track to the sounds of digestion and the nutrients coming from mom's system into baby’s."

[ 3] [4] A domain is a concept introduced in Windows NT whereby a user may be granted access to a number of computer resources with the use of a single username and password combination. Contents [ hide ]1 History2 Primary domain controller2.1 PDC emulation2.2 Samba3 Backup domain controller4 Nomenclature5 References6 External links History [ edit]With Windows NT 4 Server, one domain controller per domain was configured as the primary domain controller (PDC); all other domain controllers were backup domain controllers (BDC). Because of the critical nature of the PDC, best practices dictated that the PDC should be dedicated solely to domain services, and not used for file, print or application services that could slow down or crash the system. Some network administrators took the additional step of having a dedicated BDC online for the express purpose of being available for promotion if the PDC failed. A BDC could authenticate the users in a domain, but all updates to the domain (new users, changed passwords, group membership, etc.) could only be made via the PDC, which would then propagate these changes to all BDCs in the domain. If the PDC was unavailable (or unable to communicate with the user requesting the change), the update would fail. If the PDC was permanently unavailable (e.g. if the machine failed), an existing BDC could be promoted to be a PDC."

If that users certificate has the proper information, then the domain will be able to use it to log you on. Since Windows 2000 and better come with the \"\"Microsoft Certificate Authority\"\", that CA obviously handles the creation of all the certificates required. This is fine, but what if I don't want the added overhead of running my own CA, or I think its a bad idea because it won't be trusted and I don't want the headache of trying to make it trusted, or I am just a smart admin who knows that the more certs my dumb users have the more troubles they are going to have knowing which one to use where. Knowing that the Microsoft CA, issues everything I need the first approach might be to ask for a subordinate CA cert. This is an interesting idea and would require the LEAST amount of work on my side. But this would be a very BAD idea for the parent CA, as this subordinate CA can then issue certs that are trusted even though they aren't controlled by the parent CA."

As you may recall, one of the roles that I talked a little bit about was that of a domain controller. In this article, I will talk more about what domain controllers are and how they fit into your network infrastructure. One of the most important concepts in Windows networking is that of a domain. A domain is basically a collection of user accounts and computer accounts that are grouped together so that they can be centrally managed. It is the job of the domain controller to facilitate this central management of domain resources. To see why this is important, consider that any workstation that’s running Windows XP contains a handful of built in user accounts. Windows XP even allows you to create additional user accounts on the workstation. Unless the workstation is functioning as a standalone system or is a part of a peer network, these workstation level user accounts (called local user accounts) are not used for controlling access to network resources. Instead, local user accounts are used to regulate access to the local computer."

They are primarily insect eaters and nectar drinkers however there is a fisherman!The fisherman bat is a threatened species in the Virgin Islands. The bat roosts in caves near the sea, woodlands and in roofs of old houses. Through the use of echolocation or sonar, the bat detects ripples caused by fish swimming close to the water’s surface and uses it’s long, curved claws to catch them, thus the name fishermen bat. They are good swimmers and they use their wings as oars. The species’ numbers have greatly declined because of coastal development."

His first problem was that he was told by the LORD to go with the princes that Balak sent only if they called him by name to go with them (Balaam had told them the day before that he was not going, but that they should stay the night there before leaving). It is not mentioned that they came and called unto him to go with them, he just simply rose up and saddled his donkey and went. His second problem was that he continued to follow Balak to different (three of them) mountain tops to try and curse Israel even though he had already stated that God would not curse them but would bless them instead. Each time he consulted God, he basically got the same answer. The third time he did not even have to consult God, because he looked out over the hosts of Israel and his eyes were opened. Why did he follow Balak around to these different mountains in order to try and curse Israel when he already had the answer? Was it for the money?"

Basic information about donkeys and things they can do from the American Donkey and Mule Society and The Robinson Ranch: Many people like to own these fine animals for their wonderful personalities and their fine pet qualities. There is probably no more adorable baby in the animal world than the little donkey with its long ears and long legs and sweet face and fuzzy coat. However, there are many uses for donkeys. Here are some of them for your information: SHEEP (OR GOAT) PROTECTION. A single donkey, usually a jennet, sometimes a gelding (jacks rarely work because they can be too aggressive with lambs) is introduced to the herd and undergoes a bonding stage. After it has bonded with the sheep, it will protect them against canine predators (fox, coyote, dogs) as it would one of its own. This is extremely beneficial in areas where the sheep have many acres to graze. The advantage of the donkey over the guard dog is that they can eat the same food as the sheep so they don't have to be fed separately. The donkey will also bed down with the sheep at night."

She initially started out as an antagonist, charged with guarding Princess Fiona in her castle, but later reforms and helps Shrek . Contents [ show]Appearances Shrek Dragon first appears while guarding the derelict castle which serves as Princess Fiona’s prison. It can be assumed that this is her long-time, permanent domicile, since the tower houses a large hoard of treasure and happens to be littered with the bones and armor of many unsuccessful knights who tried to rescue Fiona. While searching for the princess, Shrek and Donkey become separated within the castle. Dragon traps Donkey on a stone pinnacle, intent on eating him like so many other intruders. Out of desperation, Donkey smooth talks Dragon with compliments, causing her to become infatuated and spare his life. When Dragon traps Donkey on a broken bridge Donkey uses his charming and smooth talk to seduce her to not eating him."

"text": "\"Advice For The New Miniature Donkey Owner Are you considering Miniature Donkeys? Or have you just purchased your first pair? There are a number of things you need to know to be sure you and your new equine will get off to a good start. The first thing you will need is adequate housing and a place for them to be turned out for exercise. The housing should provide protection from rain, snow or sun and be free of drafts. Heat is not necessary, but a tight building is important, especially for those who live in cold climates. A small barn or outbuilding will do nicely depending on the part of the country you live in. In cold climates you might want something more substantial. The flooring should be appropriate to drain or absorb urine and be easy to clean or \"\"muck out\"\". Stall mats or bedding (straw or sawdust) work well although straw is a better choice for the foaling stall."

"text": "What Do Donkeys Eat ? You may find it interesting to note that donkeys actually make very good pets. If you are living in a farm or have sufficient space, then you should think about getting a donkey. However, before you go out and bring a donkey, you should know what do donkeys eat. This way your pet donkey will be well fed and looked after. Donkeys are grazers and their favorite food is grass. A donkey can spend the whole day eating grass. However, if you let your donkey eat too much grass, it will put on weight, and when this happens, your donkey will not be able to lose that weight. This can have an effect on the donkey's health. This is the reason why it is necessary to ensure that your donkey eats quality grass and some hay."

"text": "First, let’s clarify what a mule is. A mule is the offspring of a male donkey (a jack) and a female horse (a mare). A horse has 64 chromosomes, and a donkey has 62. The mule ends up with 63. Mules can be either male or female, but, because of the odd number of chromosomes, they can’t reproduce. However, a male mule should be gelded in order to make him a safe and sociable animal. Except for the long ears, mules look very similar to horses, but their muscle composition is different. Mules have smoother muscles than horses. Think of a football player’s muscle build compared to that of a ballerina’s. Both are very strong, but the mule has greater physical strength for its size, and more endurance."

They are the largest and most distinctive wild horses with bodies that are patterned with white and black stripes, the exact placement of which is unique to each individual. There are three different species of Zebra that are found in Africa which are the Common Zebra (also known as the Plains Zebra and the Burchell's Zebra), the Grevy's Zebra (also known as the Imperial Zebra) and the Mountain Zebra. They are incredibly sociable animals that can travel vast distances in search of fresh grass and water but are severely threatened throughout much of their natural range due to increasing levels of human activity. Today, both the Grevy's Zebra and the Mountain Zebra are considered to be endangered species and although the Common Zebra is more widespread and numerous, there have been sharp population declines in certain areas. Zebra Anatomy and Appearance Zebras are heavy bodied animals that are perfectly designed for speed with their long and slender legs and narrow hooves helping them to reach speeds of 40kph when running. In the same way as horses, they only have a single toe on each foot which they walk on the tip of and is protected by their tough hooves. Their black and white stripes are unique to each individual and help them to identify each other when in the herd. Zebras have long necks and heads that mean they can easily reach the grass on the ground and a mane that extends from their forehead and along their back to the tail. The pattern of their stripes varies between the species with Grevy's and Mountain Zebras having narrower stripes and white undersides, while the Common Zebra has broad stripes that cover its entire body."

"text": "What Do Donkeys Eat? Like all animals, donkeys are considered to be heterotrophic. More specifically, they are herbivores because they only eat autotrophs including wheat bran, crushed barley, linseed, sheaf oats, clover, alfalfa hay, and small quantities of corn. Treats for these animals include raw veggies, bread, and stale cake. The liquids these animals consume include milk from the female, jennet, and water. Interestingly, donkeys will never drink stale water and must be within a two to three day reach of a water source. The overall diet of donkeys consists of low protein foods because food high in protein can cause them to develop skin rashes. Over the course of evolution, donkeys are considered to be grazers, meaning that they snack continuously throughout the day. Donkeys require an abundance of food intake because plants are composed of many indigestible components. In fact, the digestive efficiency of herbivores ranges from only 35-50% whereas carnivore digestive efficiency is 80-95%."

Share Flip Pin Share Email•••By Rod Powers Updated October 14, 2016I get email all the time (usually from wives) asking what constitutes the crime of \"\"adultery\"\" in today's military? Usually, the wife is upset because she perceives that the military did nothing about a wayward husband's wicked ways, or are angry because the military did not punish him for cheating on her. So, is adultery still an offense under the military justice system? Yes -- and no. It actually depends on the circumstances. You may be surprised to learn that adultery is not listed as an offense in the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). The UCMJ is a federal law, enacted by Congress, to govern legal discipline and court martials for members of the armed forces. Articles 77 through 134 of the UCMJ encompasses the \"\"punitive offenses\"\" (these are crimes one can be prosecuted for). None of those articles specifically mentions adultery."

Specific guidelines for the Florida Prepaid Contract are set forth in Florida Statutes 1009.97 – 1009.984. It is possible to achieve a degree with a minimum of 7 contracts and 3 Independent Study Projects (ISP), which is the equivalent of 124 credits. The Florida Prepaid College Plan pays a maximum of 120 credits. As with other State of Florida universities, some programs, including New College of Florida, require more than 120 credits to earn a degree. Florida Prepaid is applied to your student account as a third-party credit which reduces the amount you owe. It is usually applied to your student account a few weeks prior to the first week of classes for the total amount of credits that you are registered for. It is not Financial Aid, so it will not be listed on the Financial Aid award screen in New CLEIS. If you do not want to use your Florida Prepaid, or you want to adjust the amount of credits billed (cannot be more than approved contract) you must notify the Finance Office prior to the start of classes. The payment deadline for your portion of the tuition and fees is due on the 5th day of classes."

We claim her as a dependent in California. She made a little over $11,000 (all in Boston) in 2008. What tax form should she be using and what residency status does she claim? Based on the information in your question, I'm assuming your daughter's domicile or legal residence is California. If so, she will likely need to file a federal tax return, a Massachusetts tax return, and a California tax return. For federal purposes, she will need to file Form 1040 because her earned income (i.e., income from working such as salaries and wages) in 2008 was over $5,450 dollars. [ As a side note, I made the assumption that the $11,000 dollars was earned income. If the $11,000 is from unearned income (i.e., interest, dividends, etc. ), your daughter would still need to file a return for federal tax purposes because her unearned income exceeded the $900 threshold for federal purposes. ]"

"text": "\"Home »Physics How Do Dosimeters Work? By Tyler Lacoma; Updated April 24, 2017Dosimeters measure prolonged exposure to potentially dangerous effects. They are used by workers and scientists in a variety of situations, but the most common dosimeters measure either ionizing radiation or noise over periods of time. They are small objects often worn in pockets that take readings over a day or several days. The wearer may self-monitor the dosimeter to see what the average level of radiation or noise has been. Other dosimeters are sent to technicians who put the dosimeter through a standardized test to measure the average levels. This gives companies a good idea of how dangerous certain areas are for their workers, and shows how well they are following safety regulations mandated by state and federal governments. Radiation and noise dosimeters both sense the prolonged \"\"dose\"\" of a particular type effect, but work in vastly different ways. When measuring light amounts of radiation over an extended period of time, two different methods can be used. The first kind is the whole-body dosimeter, which measures x, beta and gamma radiation rays."

Thus the symbol for alpha radiation is the symbol for helium-4. Most massive of all particles emitted by radioactive nuclei. Alpha radiation has the highest ionizing power and the lowest penetrating power. Ionizing Power The ability of radiation to ionize other molecules and atoms is called its ionizing power. Penetrating Power The ability to penetrate matter Beta (ß) Decay (composition, symbol, ionizing power, penetrating power) Occurs when an unstable nucleus emits an electron. In unstable nuclei, a neutron changes into a proton and emits an electron. Neutron --> proton + emitted electron Smaller particles. Low ionizing power and thus higher penetrating power.

"text": "\"Nuclear Medicine Patient Issues What's My Risk? The risks of health effects from radiation doses received during nuclear medicine procedures are either too small to be observed or are nonexistent. The benefits from properly performed clinically indicated nuclear medicine procedures far outweigh any hypothetical cancer risk. Diagnostic nuclear medicine procedures provide a medical benefit to you even if they do not appear to reveal anything and are of less risk than their alternatives, such as exploratory surgery. Even if the result of the imaging exam was negative, the physicians were provided information they could use to determine the next course of action. Refusing medical imaging procedures may result in real and substantial risk by not receiving the clinical benefits of the procedures. Because the Health Physics Society recommends against quantitative estimates of health risks for radiation doses below 100 m Sv, we will not calculate hypothetical risks for diagnostic imaging procedures. The Society's position statement \"\"Radiation Risk in Perspective\"\" explains in more detail why it is inappropriate to estimate health risks at these doses. Some risk information is available from www.radiationanswers.org. What's My Dose?"

If you see questionable results – like dose levels 2-3 times higher than expected – it’s appropriate to dig into the “why,” “how” and “what” before accepting that result as valid. It’s important to apply common sense and critical thinking to confirm your noise exposure samples will withstand scrutiny – like being challenged by an expert witness in a hearing or court case. Poor-quality noise data is rarely the result of a fault in the instrument – it’s more often due to inadvertent or intentional human behavior – either of which forces a resample, an outcome that is never desirable. Many measurement errors are “artifacts” (things observed in scientific investigations that are not normally present) resulting from deliberate actions by workers wearing the device or those in a position to create conditions not normally part of the worker’s daily routine. Common examples are whistling, shouting, singing, clapping, banging tools or running machinery beyond normal operating speeds – or it could simply be a machine malfunctioning. You may have artifacts from someone wearing the dosimeter on break, sitting in their car blasting music."

"text": "\"Noise - Measurement of Workplace Noise CLOSE ALLWhy measure noise in the workplace? Measuring noise levels and workers' noise exposures is the most important part of a workplace hearing conservation and noise control program. It helps identify work locations where there are noise problems, employees who may be affected, and where additional noise measurements need to be made. How is workplace noise measured? For occupational hygiene purposes, the sound pressure level is measured to determine noise exposures. Various instruments and techniques may be used. The choice depends on the workplace noise and the information needed. However, the first step is to determine if there is a noise problem in the workplace. This document briefly outlines the steps involved in the noise measurement. For details, you should consult the current version of the Canadian Standard CSA Z107.56 or the standard that applies in your jurisdiction."

"text": "Tips on Buying a Sound Level Meter Brief Background on Noise and Sound Measurement Noise is defined as a dangerous, annoying or disturbing sound. Thus, noise is a subjective sensation of the sounds affecting us. So, the noise as such is not directly measurable. Through the vibrations of a sound source e.g. voices, loudspeaker membranes, cars, railways, aircrafts, industrial equipment, the vibrations (pressure fluctuations) in the air are generated, which our ears perceive as sound. The frequency of the pressure fluctuations is perceived at the low frequency as low tones and at fast frequency as high ones. When the strength of the pressure fluctuations is increasing, we take it as the sound getting louder. These pressure fluctuations are recorded by the sound level meter and displayed in a measured value in d B (decibels). The decibel range from 0 ... 130 is logarithmic. O d B describes the lower auditory threshold and 130 d B corresponds approximately to the human pain threshold. On the basis of the logarithmic structure, the measured values cannot be simply added, subtracted or averaged."

It is indetectable to humans, being both tasteless and odorless, and in high enough concentrations it can kill within minutes. But CO is not so silent if you read about its victims in the news. It already claims hundreds of lives each year, and survivors of CO poisoning can be left with psychological and neurological symptoms. Sadly, this toxic gas takes lives that could be saved through education, awareness, and simple protection. Read this article to make yourself aware of the risks that CO poses, and how to stay CO safe!What is CO And Who’s At Risk? CO is a poisonous gas produced by the incomplete burning of carbon based fuels. When inhaled it deprives the blood stream of oxygen, suffocating its victim. No one is immune to the effects of CO, though children 14 and under are more likely to sustain poisoning than adults at lower levels. CO can cause immediate health problems, and even death, in high concentrations, and some suspect it can also cause long-term health problems in low concentrations if a person experiences regular exposure (such as at home, or in the workplace)."

Materials Cited by PDFRelated Abstract Section: Rationale: The American Thoracic Society guidelines (1999) for methacholine challenge tests (MCTs) using the 2-minute tidal breathing protocol were developed for the now-obsolete English-Wright (EW) nebulizer. In addition, the guideline recommendation to use the provocative concentration of methacholine causing a 20% drop in FEV 1 (PC 20) rather than the provocative dose of methacholine causing a 20% drop in FEV 1 (PD 20) for determining the level of bronchial hyperresponsiveness has been challenged. Objectives: To determine if cumulative dose or concentration of methacholine delivered to the airways is the determinant for airway responsiveness and to validate use of the Aero Eclipse* II BAN (Aero; Trudell Medical International, London, ON, Canada) nebulizer compared with use of the reference standard EW nebulizer. Methods: Subjects with asthma (10–18 yr old) participated in randomized, controlled cross-over experiments comparing four MCT protocols using standard methacholine concentrations, but varying: ( 1) methacholine starting concentration (testing for cumulative effect); ( 2) nebulizer (EW versus Aero); and ( 3) inhalation time. PD 20 was calculated using nebulizer output rate, inhalation time, and preceding doses delivered. ANOVA analyses were used to compare geometric means of PC 20 and PD 20 between protocols. Results: A total of 32 subjects (17 male) participated. PC 20 differed when starting concentration varied (0.46 vs. 0.80 mg/ml; P < 0.0001), whereas PD 20 did not (0.06 vs. 0.08 mg). PC 20 differed with the EW versus the Aero nebulzer with 30-second inhalation (1.19 vs. 0.43 mg/ml; P = 0.0006) and the EW versus the Aero nebulizer with 20-second inhalation (1.91 vs. 0.89 mg/ml; P = 0.0027), whereas PD 20 did not (0.07 vs. 0.06 mg and 0.11 vs. 0.09 mg, respectively)."

Prest c Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2014.04.064 Get rights and content Abstract Radiotherapy treatments with high-energy () photon beams are a standard procedure in clinical practice, given the skin and near-target volumes sparing effect, the accurate penetration and the uniform spatial dose distribution. On the other hand, despite these advantages, neutrons may be produced via the photo-nuclear (γ,n) reactions of the high-energy photons with the high-Z materials in the accelerator head, in the treatment room and in the patient, resulting in an unwanted dose contribution which is of concern, given its potential to induce secondary cancers, and which has to be monitored. This work presents the design and the test of a portable Dysprosium dosimeter to be used during clinical treatments to estimate the “in vivo” dose to the patient. The dosimeter has been characterized and validated with tissue-equivalent phantom studies with a Varian Clinical i X 18 MV photon beam, before using it with a group of patients treated at the S. Anna Hospital in Como. The working principle of the dosimeter together with the readout chain and the results in terms of delivered dose are presented. Previous article Next article Keywords Neutron contamination LINAC Neutron dosimeter1. Introduction In most radiotherapy facilities, the older low-energy linear accelerators (linacs) are being replaced with new dual-energy linacs producing photon beams with an energy of. One of the main drawbacks of this technology is the production of photoneutrons in the target, flattening filter and collimating devices when operating at energies above [1–4]. The neutron contribution to the patient dose may be significant and its monitoring may be required [5,6]. The determination of the dose due to the neutron contamination is subject to a large uncertainty since the neutron spectrum is difficult to measure and requires both the use of Monte Carlo transport codes and detectors which are insensitive to the photons of the primary beam [7–11]. This paper presents a possible way to monitor the neutron dose during high-energy X-ray radiotherapy; the exploited technique relies on the detection of the 94.7 ke V γs produced by the 165 Dy decay, due to the neutron activation of the 164 Dy in a thin sample of pure natural dysprosium. The choice of dysprosium has been suggested by the reasons detailed in Section 2, among which the capability of neutron discrimination and detection in the mixed field produced during a high-energy radiotherapy treatment. The main features of the readout chain and the method adopted for the neutron dose determination will also be presented in Section 2."

Wearing a dosimeter on a daily basis is important to the health and safety of employees who work in radiation environments. The only way to determine an employee's real accumulated dose level is to have them wear a dosimeter every day and to check their dose reports regularly. This will ensure that they will not experience any significant health risk due to radiation. In the rare case where an x-ray machine malfunctions or there is an error during a procedure, unacceptably high levels of exposure to radiation can be detected early before any significant danger occurs. By using a dosimeter device in your practice you can: Confirm safety procedures are being followed Stay in compliance with State and Federal regulations Detect faulty equipment or gaps in safety practices Monitor pregnant workers Frequent, precise exposure readings with an instadose™ dosimeter can address these concerns immediately. With an instadose™ dosimeter you can measure your exposure to x-ray and gamma radiation at anytime using any internet enabled computer. This easy-to-use device is the only accredited USB-compatible dosimeter that enables you to measure your radiation dose at anytime as often as you wish.back to top Why Radiation In A Dental Office Can Be Dangerous Recent research suggests the *risk of thyroid cancer increases with multiple exposures to dental x-rays.

The radiation dosimeter is worn by the individual to monitor and track external radiation exposures. Individuals working with volatile or large quantities of unsealed radioactive material are required to undergo in vivo or in vitro bioassay measurements to assess the intake of radioactive material and determine the corresponding radiation dose. Thyroid probes are performed on workers handling I-131 and I-125 as sodium iodide, and urine bioassays are performed on workers handling high activities of beta emitters. In addition, bioassays are performed as part of the response to spills or accidental releases. Reports of the personnel exposures and bioassay measurements are reviewed monthly by the Radiation Safety Office (RSO) to look for unusual or unexpected levels. In accordance with the as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) philosophy, any exposures greater than 10 percent of the maximum permissible dose are investigated and reported to the University Radiation Safety Committee. Guidelines for the Wearing of Personal Dosimetry Purpose: Dosimeters are issued to measure and record the amount of occupational radiation dose an individual receives as required by state and federal regulations.

If you would like to know the definition of other radiation terms, visit the Radiation Terms section on the Health Physics Society Web site ( www.hps.org ). Current law in the United States requires the use of standard units, while the rest of the world uses an international system (SI) of units—very similar to the United States using inches and feet while centimeters and meters are used by other countries.absorbed dose: Absorbed dose is used for purposes of radiation protection and assessing dose or risk to humans in general terms. Absorbed dose is the amount of radiation absorbed in an organ or tissue (i.e., the amount of radiation energy that has been left in cells, tissues, or organs). Absorbed dose is usually defined as energy deposited (joule) per unit of mass (kilogram). See gray and rad.alpha particle: An alpha particle is a particle with weight (it is made up of two protons and two neutrons) and charge (it is positively charged because protons have a positive charge). Alpha particles do not travel very far and are not considered an exposure hazard unless the radioactive material that emits them gets inside the body.as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA): ALARA is a principle of radiation protection that calls for practical efforts to be taken to keep exposures to ionizing radiation as low as reasonably achievable, economic and social factors being taken into account.background radiation: Background radiation includes radiation from cosmic sources, naturally occurring radioactive materials (including radon), and global fallout (from the testing of nuclear explosive devices). The typically quoted average individual exposure from background radiation is 0.36 rem per year.becquerel: Becquerel (Bq) is the unit in the International System of Units to replace the curie (see curie).beta particle: A beta particle is an energetic electron given off by atoms when the atoms have too much energy. Beta particles do not travel very far, but travel farther than alpha particles. Beta particles are typically stopped by a few millimeters or about an eighth (1/8) of an inch of tissue; higher-energy beta particles will be stopped by approximately a centimeter or about a third (1/3) of an inch of tissue."

These parameters include the structure of the spacecraft, the materials used to construct the vehicle, the altitude and inclination of the spacecraft, the status of outer zone electron belts, the interplanetary proton flux, geomagnetic field conditions, solar cycle position, and EVA start time and duration. SRAG considers all of these parameters in order to ensure that radiation exposures received by the astronauts remain below established safety limits. Specific components of this responsibility include: Providing radiological support during missions. Projecting pre-flight and extra-vehicular activity (EVA) crew exposures Evaluating radiological safety with respect to exposure to isotopes and radiation producing equipment carried on the spacecraft Maintaining comprehensive crew exposure modeling capability Providing radiation instruments to characterize and quantify the radiation environment inside and outside the spacecraft Providing radiological support during missions The radiation consoles in the Mission Control Center at Johnson Space Center are staffed four hours daily during nominal space weather conditions, and continuously during extra-vehicular activities (EVA's) and significant space weather activity. SRAG works very closely with the Space Environment Center (SEC) at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in Boulder, Colorado. NOAA continuously monitors data received from its space weather satellites and ground stations to provide current information and forecasts about the space environment. Solar Forecasters at the SEC provide round the clock support, providing alerts and warnings about space weather conditions by telephone and pager and by displaying real time operational space weather data via the Internet.

There are two main categories of radiation monitoring devices: gas filled detectors and scintillation detectors. Gas detection instruments are based on the principle that ions are produced when radiation passes through a gas-filled chamber. Electrons liberated in the chamber are attracted to the center electrode (anode) by a positive voltage potential. Positive ions are attracted towards the walls (cathode) of the chamber. This produces an electrical pulse or current which can be detected and recorded on an instrument known as a scaler. There are three types of gas filled radiation detectors: ionization chambers, proportional counters, and geiger-mueller detectors. The primary difference between these detectors is the voltage applied to the chamber. The kind of detector used is based on the intensity and the type of radiation field encountered. Scintillation detectors operate on the principle that certain materials scintillate or give off light when exposed to radiation."

Full Answer Despite their versatile abilities, peregrine falcons usually hone their hunting skills to target specific localized species, such as pigeons in cities and seabirds near coastal towns. They scan for prey by finding tall trees, cliffs, bridges, buildings and even ships to perch and nest on. After spotting suitable prey, falcons fly high up and hurtle down towards their targets in a rapid dive. They position their wings close to their bodies to gain speed, traveling as fast as 200 mph."

"text": "Pets & Animals Birds Q: How Long Do Baby Doves Stay in the Nest? A: Quick Answer The nesting period for fledgling doves is just 11 to 12 days, according to East Valley Wildlife. If a baby doesn't leave after 12 days, its parents deny it food until it does so. There is a one-day gap between each baby's birth, so they leave in a staggered pattern. Continue Reading Keep Learning How Do You Care for Baby Doves? How Long Do Baby Birds Stay in the Nest? Where Do Mourning Doves Nest? Full Answer The primary reason doves leave by the 12th day is that their body temperatures are regulated, and they no longer need warmth from parents. When doves aren't ready to fly by day 13, they often fall from the nest to the ground. They fly within a few days, though some fall victim to predators."

Go Dark For Your Heart Studies have found that a daily square of dark chocolate can improve your heart health thanks to its flavanols, which serve as antioxidants. One study from 2010 showed that a small dose of dark chocolate could decrease your risk of heart attack and stroke by nearly 40 percent.

For the heart health benefits, reach for at least 70 percent cacao, which is fairly bitter without the added fat and sugar. And don’t forget that even though dark chocolate is considered a (somewhat) healthy treat, it still packs plenty of calories.

"text": "Feeding Wild Birds Milo Seed Is Milo Good or Bad for Birds? By Melissa Mayntz Updated 10/23/17Share Pin Email Photo © Neil Palmer (CIAT) /Flickr/Used With Permission Milo seed is often considered filler or waste in birdseed mixes, but it can still be a useful type of birdseed depending on how much is offered, what types of feeders are used and what birds are coming to the buffet. While not suitable for every bird feeding station, milo can be a good addition to feeders in the right area and if offered in the proper quantities. About Milo Birdseed Milo seed ( Sorghum bicolor) is a type of grass grain, also called sorghum, durra, or jowari. It comes in two varieties, white and red, and the red is a more common part of inexpensive birdseed mixes. Because it is a large grain, approximately the size of a BB, it is a bulky addition to mixes that can make quantities seem much larger. Milo can make up 40-50 percent of the cheapest birdseed mixes. The nutritional composition of milo is not impressive – it is primarily carbohydrates, and while that starch can be valuable, it is not as concentrated an energy source as fats or oils, and many birds have more difficulty digesting milo, which can lead to more feces. The grain is a good source of iron and fiber, and includes trace amounts of calcium, but birds can also meet their needs for iron, fiber and calcium through much better food sources. In addition to its use in birdseed, milo is a popular food source for humans and livestock, particularly in less developed areas where the cheapness of the grain is an asset."

And those who have ended up and rescuing these birds have usually found them to be friendly and if kept some time even, affectionate and loving. Males also have a sense of humor at times. While mourning doves only have an average life of a year and a half, a banded mourning dove has been reported to have reached an age of 31 before dying. It has also been estimated that almost half of the mourning dove population dies each year, but that these doves are so prolific that new babies more than offset the number of doves that die."

Dragonflies in tropical regions typically spend less time in each stage than dragonflies in temperate regions. TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read)The life cycle of a dragonfly usually includes three stages, which are the egg, nymph and adult phase. The Egg Stage The life cycle of a dragonfly starts with eggs.

Purple Martins Purple martins have gained a reputation as natural mosquito predators, and they do eat adult mosquitoes, but they eat most other kinds of flying bugs, too. No research has shown that mosquitoes are more than 3 percent of their diet, according to an article in Missouri Conservationist magazine. [ 1] The results seem logical, since martins catch insects during the day while flying high in the sky, but mosquitoes usually fly close to the ground looking for prey to bite, and are most active after dark. Claims that these birds can eat 2000 mosquitoes a day are based on a hypothetical diet eating nothing but mosquitoes--something that no purple martin actually does. ["

Just like people, different trout like different foods. Trout eat almost any smaller animal, including insects and tiny fish. To get their food, trout have to compete with other types of fish that eat the same things they do. Sometimes, they even have to compete with other trout. Terrestrial (Land) Animals Some trout will eat (or at least try) anything in the water. This includes land animals that accidentally hop or fall into the stream or lake. Grasshoppers can make a big, tasty treat. A mouse can make a satisfying meal for any trout that can fit one in its mouth. Aquatic (Water) Animals (including small fish) Like other wild animals, trout feed on other aquatic animals including water-dwelling insects, minnows and crayfish."

So says a biologist in the Maldives, who claims to have discovered the longest migration of any insect. If confirmed, the mass exodus would be the first known insect migration across open ocean water. It would also dwarf the famous trip taken each year by Monarch butterflies, which fly just half the distance across the Americas. Biologist Charles Anderson has published details of the mass migration in the Journal of Tropical Ecology. Each year, millions of dragonflies arrive on the Maldive Islands, an event which is well known to people living there. \"\" But no-one I have spoken to knew where they came from,\"\" says Anderson, an independent biologist who usually works with organisations such as the Maldivian Marine Research Centre to survey marine life around the islands. This just illustrates how little we still know about the natural world Biologist Charles Anderson Their appearance is especially peculiar because the 1200 islands that make up the Maldives lie 500 to 1000km from the mainland of southern India, and all are coral cays with almost no surface freshwater, which dragonflies need to complete their lifecycle. Anderson noticed the dragonflies after he first arrived in the Maldives in 1983. He started keeping detailed records each year from 1996 and now collates data collected by local observers at other localities in the Maldives, in India and on vessels at sea."

Growing up in the country I was surrounded by them in the summertime–the tiny blue ones, the giant green ones–they’ve always been my favorite insect. When coming up with a logo I wanted something I’d enjoy seeing and sharing with others and since I write dusty westerns I asked my graphic designer to give my personal dragonfly a snake-like tail. He did, and I love it. Not long after, my cousin saw my logo and said “Oh, Snake Doctors!” I had never heard the term and was instantly fascinated. She told me that while growing up her whole family called dragonflies “snake doctors” and she’d never heard the term dragonfly until she was much older. This got me to wondering about dragonfly lore. If there’s anything I love as much as westerns and dragonflies it’s lore, myths and legends! Must be the storyteller in me, but I love Greek Mythology and while researching Indian tribes and cultures I became fascinated with Native American folklore."

If you intend to keep a salamander as a pet,you should know what to feed and what not to feed to a salamander. Salamanders are typically characterized by their slender body, short nose, long tail, and -- most important of all -- their unique ability of regrowing lost limbs and tail. It might come as a surprise for some of you, but salamanders have been thriving on the planet for more than 100 million years now. They have become popular as pets, mainly because of their docile nature and colorful appearance, and this, in turn, has made people curious about their behavior in both, wild and captivity. Approximately 550 species of salamanders are found on the planet; some of these are aquatic in nature and seldom come on land, while some are totally terrestrial in nature and seldom enter water. Some of these species breathe through lungs, some through their skin, and there are some which breathe through their mouth. Most popular species of salamander include the Pacific giant salamander, spotted salamander, hell-bender, and the tiger salamander. Salamanders - What Do They Eat?"

In the process, life-sustaining energy is moved up the food chain. Most people are familiar with the concept of predators and prey.

"text": "\"Mosquitoes have natural enemies Some predators work better than others for mosquito control Gambusia fish swimming among mosquito larvae. By Elizabeth Miller Mosquitoes have a variety of natural predators, from bats to fish to dragonflies. Scientists have studied what eats them in the wild, in hopes of finding enemies that can be introduced to get rid of mosquito problems near where people live. Some predators eat enough to noticeably reduce the population, while others get rid of so few that one can barely tell any difference. Bats, birds and dragonflies which kill adult mosquitoes are some of the most obvious predators, but the least effective, according to the book Medical and Veterinary Entomology. [ 1] Mosquitoes make up only a small part of their diet. Fish, insects and other creatures that feed on larvae are another possible form of control, though still only effective in certain circumstances. One of the most effective natural enemies is Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis or Bti, a bacterium that only targets mosquito larvae plus a few very closely related species, without affecting fish, frogs or other desirable species, including people. Two natural predators which attack mosquito larvae in the water are mosquitofish and dragonflies: Mosquito-eating Fish The gambusia fish ( Gambusia affinis ), also called the western mosquitofish, eats mosquito larvae. These little fish are controversial because they're aggressive, also eating the eggs, larvae and young of native fish and amphibians and competing with them for other food."

Some of their mouthparts are modified to shoot forward and grab prey. They breathe water through gills in their abdomen, and can squirt this water out fast to give themselves a quick jet-propelled movement. Adult dragonflies are easy to recognize. They have long thin bodies, very large eyes, and they hold their 2 pairs of wings out flat on either side. Their legs sometimes have many long stiff hairs. Immature dragonflies are usually brown or greenish, and sometimes have algae growing on them. Adult dragonflies can be very colorful, some are red, blue, yellow, or green."

They are similar to dragonflies, which constitute the other odonatan suborder, Anisoptera, but are smaller, have slimmer bodies, and most species fold the wings along the body when at rest. An ancient group, damselflies have existed since at least the Lower Permian, and are found on every continent except Antarctica. All damselflies are predatory; both nymphs and adults eat other insects. The nymphs are aquatic, with different species living in a variety of freshwater habitats including acid bogs, ponds, lakes and rivers. The nymphs moult repeatedly, at the last moult climbing out of the water to undergo metamorphosis. The skin splits down the back, they emerge and inflate their wings and abdomen to gain their adult form. Their presence on a body of water indicates that it is relatively unpolluted, but their dependence on freshwater makes them vulnerable to damage to their wetland habitats. Some species of damselfly have elaborate courtship behaviours. Many species are sexually dimorphic, the males often being more brightly coloured than the females."

Most do not have specific prey and feed on a wide range of animals which, in some cases, they consume in large numbers. Lady beetles for example, can devour several hundred aphids in a day.

However, with a very few exceptions, predators generally have little effect on reducing the mosquito population over a large area. So, what are some animals that are mosquito predators? Bats While bats eat mosquitoes, they are far more effective at locating, catching and eating insects other than mosquitoes. Birds Many birds will eat mosquitoes. The more important among these are purple martins, swallows, waterfowl (geese, terns, ducks) and migratory songbirds. Bird predators usually eat both the adult and aquatic stages of mosquitoes.

Dragonfly Characteristics Before we understand the meaning of dragonfly, let’s look at the unique characteristics of this spiritual and magical creature: Dragonflies have inhabited the earth almost 300 million years. They spend only part of their life span as adult dragonflies and only live for a few weeks or months as mature dragonflies. A dragonfly is a very strong and good flyer, and can fly at speeds of up to 36 miles per hour. A dragonfly’s eyes have about 30,000 lenses enabling a dragonfly can see in 360 degrees around it. A dragonfly can show itself in different and reflective colors depending on the angle and polarization of light falling on it.

The graceful flight of dragonflies along a lake, stream or pond is one of summer’ best shows and the bright colors of the long, slender body and the sparkling cellophane transparency of the wings make them a favorite of jewelry makers and artists. Dragonflies are also a favorite for insect collections but collectors are more often than not frustrated because dragonflies can be as elusive as they are beautiful. Several nicknames and myths surround these insects. The nickname “devil’s darning needle” has been applied to some of the larger species who are alleged to stitch shut the eyes or ears of children as they sleep. The nickname “horse stinger” is without merit since these harmless insects can not sting or bite. The nickname “mosquito hawk” however, is accurate as the dragonflies consume large quantities of mosquitoes and other small flying insects during their tireless flights. Description of dragonflies and damselflies Dragonflies are accompanied in the air space near water by their close relatives called damselflies. The two groups have many similarities such as long slender bodies, elongate, membranous wings with a crowded network of veins, and large heads composed almost entirely of multifaceted, compound eyes, but they are easily distinguished from each other. Damselflies are smaller and more delicate looking than dragonflies and when damselflies rest they hold their wings straight up and together above the body."

"text": "\"Mayflies and Stoneflies The kind of mayflies and stoneflies that are seen in streams are nymphs, immature forms without wings. These insects only have an incomplete metamorphosis, unlike caddisflies and true flies. Whenever we say \"\"mayfly\"\" or \"\"stonefly,\"\" we will be referring to the immature nymphs. Mayflies and stoneflies look much alike. You will have to examine them carefully with a magnifying glass to tell the difference, or even look at them through a microscope. As insects, both have six legs, of course. Both have elongated bodies, with long abdomens. Their similarities may have to do with their similar environments: both hug the bottom of fast streams, clinging to debris, rocks, and sediments with their tiny claws. Both must keep from being washed away (although some mayflies will let go and swim or drift sometimes), and both must breathe underwater.mayfly (Heptageniidae) mayfly (Baetidae) stonefly (Plecoptera)If you are lucky enough to see them up close, there are a couple of things that will tell you what you are looking at: although both have gills, the mayfly carries its gills along both sides of its abdomen, sometimes in fairly visible plates of gill tissue, like the mayflies pictured above. Also, and this may take a microscope, the mayfly has one claw at the end of each leg, while the stonefly has two, giving it six pairs of claws!"

"text": "Insects > Dragonflies > Symbolism/ Meaning of a Dragonfly Symbolism/ Meaning of a Dragonfly Swift Winged Skimmer Dragonfly The dragonfly has been a subject of intrigue in every single continent it is found in, and with each civilization, has developed a unique meaning to it, its behavior and its lifestyle. The word Dragonfly and the family it belongs to, Odonata, have evolved from the many myths associated with Dragonflies and their taxonomic cousins, the Damselflies. The word Dragonfly has its source in the myth that Dragonflies were once Dragons. The family name Odonata comes from the Greek word for tooth as Odonates were believed to have teeth, it is a verified fact now that while they don’t have ‘teeth’ per say, they have strong mandibles that they use to crush their prey. Symbolisms of the Dragonfly• Maturity and a Depth of character The dragonfly, in almost every part of the world symbolizes change and change in the perspective of self realization; and the kind of change that has its source in mental and emotional maturity and the understanding of the deeper meaning of life. The traditional association of Dragonflies with water also gives rise to this meaning to this amazing insect. The Dragonfly’s scurrying flight across water represents an act of going beyond what’s on the surface and looking into the deeper implications and aspects of life.• Power and Poise The dragonfly’s agile flight and its ability to move in all six directions exude a sense of power and poise - something that comes only with age and maturity. The dragonfly can move at an amazing 45 miles an hour, hover like a helicopter fly backwards like a hummingbird, fly straight up, down and on either side. What is mind blowing is the fact that it can do this while flapping its wings a mere 30 times a minute while mosquitoes and houseflies need to flap their wings 600 and 1000 times a minute respectively. The awe inspiring aspect is how the dragonfly accomplishes its objectives with utmost simplicity, effectiveness and well, if you look at proportions, with 20 times as much power in each of its wing strokes when compared to the other insects."

"text": "Insects > Dragonflies > Meet the Dragonfly Meet the Dragonfly One of Nature’s most intriguing and fascinating insects, and the subject of mankind’s most sublime and ridiculous myths and mythologies, the dragonfly darts around going about its business as usual, blissfully unaware and oblivious to the interest it has generated in us. And perhaps thankfully for us because if the dragonfly were to understand that we have called it the “Devils darning needle” and “gwas-y-neidr” or the Adder’s Servant, it could laugh long and hard at us…and considering the dragonfly has been around for over 300 million years, it could be a really, really long laugh. The primary fascination that humans have had with dragonflies is because Of its ability to seek out pure water Of its ability to Reflect multiple colors with changing angles of light Of its awe inspiring flight and speed Of its ability to almost single handedly control insect populations Of its ability to adapt to change with indescribable ease Of the way it lives out its adult life, living each moment to the fullest We have specific pages dedicated to the different aspects of the dragonfly in this website and lots of information and trivia associated with this fascinating creature. To give you a heads up, while dragonflies were almost deified as the souls of the dead in Native American culture and heralded as symbols of purity and change, they were symbols of victory, power and prosperity, and the native Burmese (now Myanmar) regularly released dragonfly nymphs into the water surrounding their settlements to control the populations of Yellow Fever causing mosquitoes. Dragonflies are natural and seriously efficient predators and can deliver a telling blow to insect populations in areas that they are present in good numbers, so much so that normal people are saved from most mosquito-spread diseases, and bee keepers consider dragonflies as a pest. Biology The dragonfly, owing to its position in the food chain, is not scared…so if you find one flying over to you and sometimes looking you in the eye for a few moments, don’t be surprised or shocked. It’s what it does…look with its 30,000 eyes, to find food and mates. Oh, while 30,000 is an approximate number, it is the number of ommatidia that dragonflies have within their compound eyes. Like all arthropods, dragonflies have compound eyes - only, they are a little more specialized, suited for a born predator. When dragonflies see, they don’t exactly see…they more sense."

"text": "\"Dragonflies and \"\"Snake Doctors\"\"Stacey Kayne August 22, 2008 Folklore/Myths/Legends, Personal Glimpses 69 Comments As my logo may indicate, I love dragonflies. Growing up in the country I was surrounded by them in the summertime–the tiny blue ones, the giant green ones–they’ve always been my favorite insect. When coming up with a logo I wanted something I’d enjoy seeing and sharing with others and since I write dusty westerns I asked my graphic designer to give my personal dragonfly a snake-like tail. He did, and I love it. Not long after, my cousin saw my logo and said “Oh, Snake Doctors!” I had never heard the term and was instantly fascinated. She told me that while growing up her whole family called dragonflies “snake doctors” and she’d never heard the term dragonfly until she was much older. This got me to wondering about dragonfly lore. If there’s anything I love as much as westerns and dragonflies it’s lore, myths and legends! Must be the storyteller in me, but I love Greek Mythology and while researching Indian tribes and cultures I became fascinated with Native American folklore."

"text": "5.16.10“Gilmore Girls:” Dragonfly Inn and Scenes from Stars Hollow It would probably be an understatement to say that I’m a “ Gilmore Girls ” fan. I became obsessed with the show last year and ended up buying the entire 7-season DVD set so I can return to Stars Hollow whenever the mood strikes. There are a lot of fun sets on this show, so let’s start by taking a look at the Dragonfly Inn run by Lorelai and her best friend Sookie. ( 2016 UPDATE: I now have lots of photos and information from the Netflix revival “A Year in the Life” — see them here ! ) Gilmore Girls: Dragonfly Inn It was originally used as The Waltons’family home. Here’s how it looked then: UPDATE: Steve tells me: “This house was not the original Waltons house (which burned down in late 1991) but a reconstruction on the Warner Ranch (the first one had been on the Burbank backlot), and was used for the three 1990s Waltons reunion movies. One of the few shows to use the Waltons house (after TW had ended) was “Dukes of Hazzard” in 1985 – after all the house was ‘typecast’ by then!” Thanks, Steve!The inn before they bought it: Dragonfly Inn after Lorelai and Sookie fixed it up: Amy Sherman-Palladino, the creator, writer and co-producer of “Gilmore Girls,” had the idea for the show after visiting a small town in Connecticut called Washington Depot. She says she and her husband Daniel (who co-produced and wrote the show with her) visited a coffee shop at Washington Depot where everyone knew each other and they saw customers going behind the counter to pour their own coffee. It inspired her to start jotting down dialogue for what would become “Gilmore Girls."

The red colour is the colour of flame and blood, and the symbol of destruction and slaughter. The dragon is the emblem of the evil spirit, the devil, the perpetual antagonist of good, the persecutor of the Church in all ages (comp.

What to expect, is determined by various factors as explained and disseminated in publications such as Your Chinese Horoscope 2012. However as designers and artists, the meaning and significance of the dragon is a complex subject. Details such as its claws could have radical differences in terms of the dragon’s meaning and significance. Every effort should therefore be made to thoroughly investigate the mythology of such creatures, especially with regard to their cultural, religious and sectarian value and importance. This is of particular significance, when the dragon is incorporated as the main design feature; referenced as central to the design concept and or idea. Getting it wrong, at this stage of the design development process, could have disastrous consequences. It could lead to the disqualification of your design in a competition. It can also be very offensive and or insulting on a national and cultural level (public relations) if the symbol is used without thorough research."

The spirituality of the Norse Vikings was so ingrained in their culture and thought process that they had no word for religion. There was no separation (as there so often is today) between faith and reality. The cosmic forces and fate were active in everything. Thanks to the Marvel movies, nearly everyone now knows about Thor's hammer (Mjölnir) which was a very popular choice for Vikings to use in their jewelry as represented in this ancient Danish artifact to the right. The Vikings also had letters (known as runes), but writing itself was sacred and even magical. So, while the Norse culture was very rich in poetry, stories, and songs, this was all transmitted orally. The stories of Odin, Thor, Freya, or the Viking heroes that we have now were all passed on by careful word of mouth until they were finally written down as the sagas by descendants of the Vikings centuries later. Symbols and motifs visually convey (instantly and across language barriers) messages that were deeply meaningful to the women and men that held them. Symbols themselves were thought to have power."

"text": "Until the Edo period in Japan (1600–1868) tattoos, world wide, were done with marks and symbolism rather than imagery. It was in Japan, in the Edo period, that “decorative” tattoo began to develop into the advanced art form it is known as today. The Traditional Japanese Tattoo “Irezumi” is the decoration of the body with mythical beasts, flowers, leafs, and other images from stories, myths and tales. The impetus for the development of the art was the progression of the woodblock prints and notably the “hero’s heavily decorated with Irezumi”. Wearing Irezumi is an “Aspiration” to life’s goals. Woodblock artists began tattooing, using many of the same tools for tattooing as they did to create their woodblock prints, including chisels, gouges and, most importantly, unique ink known as Nara ink, or Nara black, the ink that famously turns blue-green under the skin, which is the true look of the tattoo. There is academic debate over who wore these elaborate tattoos. Some scholars say that it was the lower classes who wore such tattoos. Others claim that wealthy merchants, barred by law from flaunting their wealth who wore expensive Irezumi under their clothes. It is known for certain that Irezumi became associated with and proudly worn by the firemen, dashing figures of bravery and roguish sex-appeal who wore them as a form of spiritual aid and protection, thus the revered “Suit of Nine Dragons” to give power over wind and water."

"text": "The Magic Of The Dragon Tattoo One of the most intriguing tattoos out there today is the dragon tattoo. This is one of the most common designs on the market today. In history, many tribes believed that a person captured the power of a beast when the image was imprinted on their skin. It is not hard to understand why a warrior would want to contain the power of the majestic dragon. The word dragon is derived all the way back from the Greek word “derkein” which means, “sharp sighted one.” This was later translated into Latin terms meaning “giant snake.” Mythology has embraced the dragon as far back as the Greeks. Dragons have taken many, many forms and each of these forms has been a little different. Some believe that these mythical creatures stem from the dinosaurs and exaggerated tales of real life large serpents that have since left the animal world. Each time a tale is told, the serpent becomes larger and larger and the evil intent of the creature becomes more well defined."

By Bethany Marroquin; Updated September 29, 2017Chinese dragons Unlike dragons of Western lore, fearsome symbols of evil and chaos, the Chinese dragon represents nobility, wisdom and prosperity. Eastern dragons are intricately connected to the seasons and the elements and are often associated with one of the four cardinal directions. They also can be categorized by color, as each color bears a symbolic meaning and has associated connotations within Chinese culture. Blue and Green Chinese blue dragon In Chinese culture, the colors blue and green are associated with nature, serenity, growth and health. Blue and green dragons symbolize the approaching spring, evoking the clear skies and new plants that the season brings. These colors also are representative of the East and indicate Eastern dragons. Other Chinese associations with blue and green include healing, rest, prosperity and harmony. Black and White Chinese black dragon Black and white are key colors on the Chinese spectrum, representing the balance of the black yin, which is negative, passive and feminine, and the white yang, which is positive, active and masculine.

( Jon Bower/Loop Images/Corbis)By Victoria Jaggardsmithsonian.com September 22, 2014Even though Scotland voted last week to remain a part of the United Kingdom and not become an independent country, one symbol of Scottish pride holds strong: the national animal, the unicorn. While selecting a mythical animal as your patriotic mascot may seem odd, the choice has historic context. The unicorn has been used in Scottish heraldic symbols since the 12th century, and it was combined with the English lion on the royal coat of arms when the two kingdoms merged. According to the CIA World Factbook, there are no strict rules for choosing a national animal—it can be any creature “that over time has come to be closely identified with a country or entity”. Not all nations have official animals, and some have multiple options, including a few countries that have mythical beasts in addition to real ones. That got us wondering: What other unusual animals are dutifully representing countries around the world? Here are a few favorites:1 of 10Komodo dragon (Indonesia) (Joe Mc Donald/Corbis)While China and Vietnam have mystical dragons among their national emblems, only Indonesia can say it has the real deal. The Komodo dragon ( Varanus komodoensis) is the world’s largest living lizard. Adults can grow to nearly 10 feet long and can weigh more than 360 pounds."

"text": "27Nov Bat Dream Interpretation and Meaning By Carrie | Animals | 55 Comments The bat as a symbol has been associated with words like rebirth, intuition, communication, inner depth, initiation, and illusion. For most people, bats have a negative connotation – mostly learned from vampire movies – so a dream of a bat tends to inspire feelings of fear. Native Americans, however, view the bat as an interconnected part of all creation, and the symbols attached to it typically involve intuition and vision. These associations are based on the fact that bats are very sensitive to their surroundings in nature. Native Americans might invoke a bat spirit if they needed special energy, such as the ability to “see” clearly and identify illusions or ambiguity in a matter, going straight for its core truth. Bats symbolize rebirth because they live in cave-like environments and come out in the evening, effectively being “reborn” every night from within Mother Earth. Native Americans considered the bat to be a symbol of communication because bats have strong family ties and are extremely nurturing and social creatures. They are very sensitive to the other members of their group and constantly communicate with them. A dream of a bat suggests issues associated with free will and freedom as well, since bats can fly!The dream bat indicates that you are very aware of the things that surround you in your environment and that you may be overly sensitive to the feelings of other people in your life. It also suggests that you are blessed with psychic perceptions and may have prophetic dreams."

The sleep talking can range from basic sounds to lengthy sentences and can occur infrequently or multiple times throughout the same night. The content of somniloquy can range from being totally harmless to very offensive language with vulgarity, as humourously demonstrated recently by Adam and his wife Karen on their blog Sleep Talkin' Man. Episodes of somniloquy can range from a few utterances to much longer episodes of several minutes. Most last around 30 seconds. Somniloquy is a kind of parasomnia, which is defined as an abnormal behavior that occurs when an individual is sleeping. It is extremely common and it is not deemed to be a serious medical threat."

Dreams about snakes can mean many different things to different people, depending on the type, location, what it is doing and your association with snakes in waking life. Freud and Jung on the Meaning of Snakes in a Dream Sigmund Freud saw a snake as a phallic symbol and so it may represent a male figure that you find sexually attractive or threatening, depending upon how you feel in the dream. Carl Jung considered it to be a sign of transformation because it sheds its skin. Snakes Biting or Chasing You A snake biting you may represent abusive or hurtful remarks made by you or others. Running away from a snake that is chasing you may symbolize someone or something that you are unwilling or afraid to face or acknowledge. Other Meanings of Snake Dreams If you are afraid of them in waking life, they may represent something that you are afraid of facing, accepting or dealing with in waking life. May symbolize someone or something that you feel is threatening to your physical or emotional wellbeing."

"text": "\"Dream Dictionary Baby Boy The baby, when it shows up in your dreams, usually functions as a symbol to let you know that you have been preoccupied with children in some way. You have been thinking about kids too much in your daily life and since your brain has become so preoccupied with them; they are beginning to show up in your subconscious too, or your dreams to be more precise. However, babies usually show up as androgynous in dreams, or at the very least many people seem to simply forget their genders once the dream is over. When the gender of the baby becomes a matter of importance and you continually see a baby boy in your dreams rather than a baby of ambiguous gender, then you have a little bit more digging to do to find out what this means. The baby boy acts as a symbol for undeveloped masculinity. Now of course this does not mean that you are not masculine or that you show no signs of masculinity. This simply means that you have not been giving many opportunities in life to exercise your masculinity and it shows. This is the same interpretation for men and women. Every woman has a masculine side and every man has a feminine side. Whether you are a man or woman, if you dream about a baby boy there is a good chance that this is because you are about to be given a chance to display your masculinity for a wider audience."

Its sad because no one wants to be alone all the time, everyone wants to be understood. But at the same time, realizing that theres many things about this world that are fucked up and choosing solitude over conforming is a powerful notion. |The sense of peacefulness comes from the fact that its only sometimes he wishes someone would find him, for the most part he's accepted and learned not to fear being alone.

Don't know where it goes...) seems to me like he's talking about addiction or an extremely hard time in life. ( I've only ever heard this song by itself, I plan to buy the CD sometime in the future...) The words make it seem like he's been on this road for so long that he's gotten used to it, and it's just a part of him now. The next line just expresses a feeling of, you guessed it, utter and complete loneliness, but that's not all. It also conveys that nobody cares that he's alone and that he'll never fix anything (hence the Broken Dreams). Chorus is just restating that he's lonely and he wishes someone would help him out of his hole, but until he gets intervention he's stuck alone."

"text": "\"Dream interpretation Running Regardless of whether or not you run on a regular basis, a dream of running can still have some important symbolic meaning. In fact, if you find that the way you run in a dream does not match your current physical level, you may want to pay even more attention to the other events in this dream, as well as how they compare to various areas of your life. Needless to say, if you feel danger in the dream, or you are being chased, then you may not want to ignore the possibility that this dream may have some precognitive aspects. General Dream Meaning: Running If you were running in your dream without little effort, it usually means you will be able to achieve your goals. That said, if you were running away from something, as opposed to being in a race, then the dream may indicate that you are trying to avoid something. If you have a hard time running, or your feet feel stuck, then you should look for situations that may be robbing you of your self-esteem. In some instances, dreaming of not being able to move while running may also indicate you are suffering from sleep paralysis. How Dream Symbol Running may Fit in your Life A dream of running can give you some good indicators about how you feel about your progress towards various goals. If you find that running in a dream does not match with your waking reality, then it may be time to examine each situation in order to find out if there are hidden factors. Aside from making use of your intuitive abilities to avoid various problems, you may just uncover any number of appealing opportunities."

It’s possible that our dreams are used for humans to consolidate its memories for things that happened the day before. Once in the dream state, it’s also possible that our brain pulls information that we need and disregards the stuff that we don’t. Many researchers feel that our dreams are like a noise in the background that is thought out and organized. This would mean that our dreams are simply the brain’s way of making sense of unexpected transmissions happening during our sleep. Depending on the person, some will have the ability to control their dreams better than others. These are the people that can make situations in their dream by thinking of an event just before they pass out on the pillow. It is a proven fact that humans need sleep to function properly the next day. If you so happen to be sleep-deprived, you will be more prone to suffer from hallucinations or a physical breakdown. As far as why we dream, the debate is still on the table."

You are the kind of person that is not provoked easily. No matter how many people try to get on your nerves, you maintain your thick skin in the face of adversity, preferring to focus on your personal endeavors rather than worrying about all of the people fussing over you. Not only that but you have the capability to dedicate yourself to a single task with much fervor and dedication until you see results or until you are taken out of it by someone else, but again this will not happen easily because of how personally entranced in your work you are.

The Medicine Walk and Ecopsychology You are invited to explore your relationships to nature and to your life’s journey through the medium of open time and unplanned travel in a natural place. This description is based on the way it was introduced to me by Steven Foster and Meredith Little, founders of the School of Lost Borders. The roots of this activity lie in an aquifer of ancient and nearly-universal practices; its forms reflect the modern fields of ecopsychology and transpersonal psychology. From a variety of sources, including psychology, environmental education and philosophy, natural history, the worldviews of land-centered peoples – both ancient and modern, and earth-centered spirituality, ecopsychology offers insights about human-nature relationships. Among ecopsychology’s central themes are that humans and nature are part of a larger whole, that nature (both inner and outer) is intrinsically healthy, that the illusion of a separation of humans from nature causes great suffering both for humans and for the natural environment, and that a deep and profound reconnection is both necessary and possible."

Twenty to 35 percent of students reported having dreamed of killing someone at least once in their lifetime — and this type of dream was related to “elevated walking-life aggression.” This is basically the aggression a person experiences in their daily, awake life. Not only do dreams about murder suggest actual aggression, but researchers also found these dreamers also experience hostility, introversion, and don’t particularly get along with others. Students were able to remember their dreams two to three times a week, with men having more of the murder and killing dreams than women. This is on par with prior research that found men were more likely to dream about murder, as well as magical powers and alien attacks versus women dreaming about failing exams, relative deaths, and insects."

"text": "Iguana Dream Symbol23By Stephen Klein on Jun 17, 2013 Dream Dictionary, I to Q Dream Symbols, Symbols Starting With IIguana – An iguana is a symbol of hardiness and survival in tough circumstances. IF you dream that you are an iguana, or are connected to an iguana in some way, it represents the feelings you have about your present situation. The iguana in your dream may be a reminder of the saying “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. ”It may also indicate a worry on your part that the difficult situation you find yourself in will make you hard and scaly, as it were, and limit your capacity for empathy and compassion. Alternatively, it may be a warning against such an occurrence. Note: If you have had a dream related to this dream symbol or would like to add something that is related to this topic please leave comment below.

"text": "\"Derrek Erker, my favourite type of music are songs/music with meaning Answered Dec 1, 2016 · Author has 73 answers and 265.5k answer views Forewarning: I am applying this song directly to our everyday lives - and seeing the parallels of the time that Simon and Garfunkel originally wrote this song to now. I would argue that this song is more relevant now than ever. And it’s about oppression and dystopia. Summary: This song is an insightful look at how the world is changing - it’s pointing out the irony of how this planet is becoming (has become) more and more focussed on flashing lights and loud sounds. The most important thing to take away from the song I believe comes from the third verse: “People talking without speaking, People hearing without listening, People writing songs that voices never share. And no one dared Disturb the sound of silence.” It’s highlighting how modernity has taken us in a direction that no one really cares about - or more importantly - pays attention to the content of what we both hear and say. And yes, that applies to everyone. It’s funny how this is relevant more than ever in our modern age - you can apply this lyric most well and truly to Social Media and the internet. People will be right next to each other “saying things” on their phones to people, but literally speaking nothing."

This is due to the presence of two diverse dream symbols in your dreams that is water and sand over the beach. It also indicates toward positive changes going to happen in your life. Beach is the symbol of emotions or conflicts going on within the mind. The nature of water, surroundings and quantity of people present influence the actual dream interpretation. The actual meaning can be derived by focusing on your emotions after visiting the beach. If you are feeling relaxed and calm after watching the ocean will signify your need to take a break from your routine day. If you get emotional then it represents your inner emotions or an upsetting remembrance. Study all the details of your dream to get a clear understanding about their implications and suggestions. Assorted beach dream meanings Dreams of beach signify that we are having strong feelings related to some issue but unaware of them in wake life."

"text": "\"Dream interpretation Zombie, walking Dead There is no question that movies and other forms of entertainment constantly seek to portray zombies as negative figures. On the other hand, if some aspect of your life is not in an optimal condition, this dream can serve as an important indicator that you need to make some changes. At the very least, if you know that something only needs an ending, then perhaps you will have more confidence in terms of doing what you need for the sake of closure. General Dream Meaning: Zombie Overall, a dream of a zombie indicates some level of feeling disconnected from others, or even from various aspects of your inner landscape. No matter whether this is caused by some kind of trauma, feelings of helplessness, or some other factor, you can interpret a zombie and its actions to represent the element you feel most cut off from. If you happen to be the zombie in the dream, then you can conclude that you need to look at various aspects of your life in order to determine how to reconnect and feel whole again. Even though the dream may have similar connotation if the zombie is some other person, you can interpret this variant to mean that person is disconnected from you in some important way. Interestingly enough, zombies can also indicate that you are ready to put some aspect of your life behind you. Under these circumstances, you may also want to see if there are indicators about what your new beginnings will be like. How Dream Symbol Zombie may Fit in your Life No matter how much you may detest zombies, they are a clear indicator that you need to do some work on your inner landscape, as well as your relationships in daily life."

It's pretty awesome when the keyboard starts doing those nintendo sounds. guardiandevil305 on June 17, 2009 Link No Replies Log in to reply+1 My Interpretation First of all...9/11 is not a conspiracy, don't even go there. Bush (rather, Cheney & Rumsfeld) did use it as an excuse for the Iraq war, but be assured Osama bin Ladin hates America. Kennedy's assassination was a conspiracy, but 9/11...not so much. Second of all, Wiccans, Illuminati, and Satanists don't have much to do with each other, so lets not offend any of those parties by lumping them with each other. Now that I am off my soap box, to the song :) The music video provides some interesting clues to the lyrics (assuming that there is a connection). The first stanza states that their is a crisis from a new world order and that it is playing upon our fears, controlling the masses by accusing certain people of \"\"radical ideas.\"\" In the video a book that looks like the Bible or some other holy book is being burned by the cultists. It seems like it could be that the Cultists are controlling people by making them afraid of free thinkers with good ideas,a la the Church and Galileo."

The bad: Drones are noisy and, in the wrong hands, potentially dangerous. The good: Photography drones produce beautiful, cinematic aerial shots.

Police departments can deploy drones to improve their ability to enforce the law and protect lives, all while saving valuable resources like police officer time and tax dollars. Police departments can deploy drones to improve their ability to enforce the law and protect lives, all while saving valuable resources. ( AP Image)Related article5 UAV technologies for police Related feature Why your newest SWAT team member is a drone The requirement for SWAT teams to seek a warrant for the use of drones is smart and good policy. Here are five different situations in which drones can help your department fight crimes.1. Active Shooter A bird’s eye view can enable police to gain a quick understanding of the scope of what is going on in an active shooter situation. The view from a drone can not only provide the location of the shooter, but also an understanding of the surrounding area, offering valuable information such as the direction the shooter might be headed, escape routes for victims and the shooter’s firing line. UAVs are also great tools for active shooter situations because they can be deployed from almost anywhere and stored in the trunk of a cruiser. They can also access areas traditional helicopters cannot. UAVs have an ability to fly lower to the ground, get into tight spots, hover under bridges and structures, and even fly inside buildings in order to help the experts gather as much detail as they can.2."

"text": "\"Last updated November 21st 2016 The DJI Phantom 3 drone is one of the best selling drones of all time and we're excited to provide you with our long term review of DJI's ready-to-fly quadcopter . The question that many readers might have is: Is the DJI Phantom 3 still relevant with the Phantom 4 and the Mavic Pro being out? Can it still compete? Yes, yes and yes... because it offers by far the best value. At first glance, the Phantom 3 looks deceptively similar to other drones in the Phantom series. In fact, it looks nearly identical so it would be normal to assume not much changed. But you'd be wrong, dead wrong. The new Phantom 3 is light years ahead of the previous generation of ready to fly drones (like the Phantom 2 Vision) and leaves most other manufacturers in the dust. The reason for the new performance is mainly due to new motors and a new optical sensor underneath the quad. The new sensors help stabilize the drone to a new level of accuracy making it the most stable quadcopter yet in this price range."

"text": "Why a drone can hover over your home, and you can’t stop it March 8, 2013 by Scott Bomboy Lost in the controversy over the federal government’s use of military drones is an issue that hits home: commercial drones that can videotape you in your backyard. Private drones. Source: Creative Commons Under limited circumstances, the FAA has approved the use, starting in 2015, of drones owned and operated by citizens. Some will be used for commercial purposes; others will used for recreational purposes. The FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 was approved by Congress and the president. It tasks the Federal Aviation Administration with setting policies for the commercial drone business by September 2015. The act is mostly focused on air safety issues, but the implications of drones, with photo and infrared cameras, flying over personal air spaces is fraught with privacy issues. Then there are the implications for commercial drones, news gathering and the First Amendment. Television stations spend millions of dollars on helicopters, which can show live video from a distance. Drones are the fraction of a helicopter’s cost, but they can’t fly as high as a helicopter under normal circumstances."

Credit: Ryan Deboodt PUBLISHED March 19, 2015The biggest cavern in Vietnam's Son Doong Cave is so vast that it could accommodate a Boeing 747. “ You feel absolutely miniscule,” says Ryan Deboodt, a professional photographer whose video of the cave went viral this week. Deboodt spent eight days camped inside the cave, one of the world's largest, with a Go Pro fitted onto a drone. First explored in 2009, Son Doong Cave is located in Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park in central Vietnam. Deboodt's video takes viewers on a flight through its massive caverns, some of which are almost 500 feet (150 meters) wide and 650 feet (200 meters) high.

Photographers use their technical expertise, creativity, and composition skills to produce and preserve images that tell a story or record an event. Duties Photographers typically do the following: Market and advertise services to attract clients Analyze and plan the composition of photographs Use various photographic techniques and lighting equipment Capture subjects in commercial-quality photographs Enhance the subject’s appearance with natural or artificial light Use photo-enhancing software Maintain a digital portfolio to demonstrate their work Archive and manage imagery Today, most photographers use digital cameras instead of the traditional film cameras. Digital cameras capture images electronically, so the photographer can edit the image on a computer. Images can be stored on portable memory devices, such as compact disks, memory cards, and flash drives. Once the raw image has been transferred to a computer, photographers can use processing software to crop or modify the image and enhance it through color correction and other specialized effects. Photographers who edit their own pictures use computers, high-quality printers, and editing software. Some photographers use drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles, to capture shots. The drones are equipped with an integrated camera to capture 360° imagery of buildings, landscapes, scenery, or events. Photographers who work for commercial clients often will present finalized photographs in a digital format to the client."

Share Flipboard Email Print Paolo Negri/ Photographer's Choice RF/ Getty Imagesby Debbie Hadley Updated March 29, 2018The male honeybee, called a drone, exists for one reason and one reason only: to mate with a virgin queen. He is entirely expendable after he provides this service to the colony. The drone takes his mission seriously, however, and gives his life for the cause. How Honeybees Do the Deed Honeybee sex occurs in mid-air, when the queen flies out in search of mates, her one and only \"\"nuptial flight.\"\" Drones compete for the chance to mate with their queen, swarming around her as she flies. Eventually, a brave drone will make his move. As the drone grasps the queen, he everts his endophallus using a contraction of his abdominal muscles and hemostatic pressure and inserts it tightly into the queen's reproductive tract. He immediately ejaculates with such explosive force that the tip of his endophallus is left behind inside the queen and his abdomen ruptures. The drone falls to the ground, where he dies soon after. The next drone removes the previous drone's endophallus and inserts his, mates, and then dies as well."

( Photo: Emmanuel Lozano/The Republic)Story Highlights Drones will increasingly take to our skies as the gadgets get cheaper and easier to use A proposed draft ordinance would make it a crime to use a drone to film or photograph people on their private property without their knowledge The proposal seeks to declare \"\"Peeping Tom\"\" laws for the airways and to prepare for potential drone usage by police, a councilman says Fewer than 10 states have enacted measures on drones, but about half of the country's states have tried or are currently trying to do so CONNECT TWEET LINKEDIN COMMENT EMAIL MORENo clear rules govern who's watching and who's getting watched by drones in the Valley, even though they're attracting a growing number of enthusiasts who use them to shoot aerial photos and videos. Experts say the growing popularity of drones — from hobbyists who toy with small-scale versions to law-enforcement officials who use more-sophisticated systems — creates a pressing need for new regulations because existing airspace and privacy laws have too many gray areas. That may be about to change in Phoenix. Two City Council members today will unveil a draft ordinance that would make it a crime to use a drone to film, audiotape or photograph people on their private property without their consent. A violation would be a Class 1 misdemeanor, which carries up to a $2,500 fine and six months in jail, according to the proposed ordinance. Each image the person distributed would rack up a separate offense. However, the proposal has many exceptions, which include permissible taping and photographing for mapping or artistic or journalistic purposes as long as the recording shows several residences and no individual is identifiable. The ordinance also would allow violators a defense if the person destroyed the photos or tapes upon learning of the law as long as he or she did not record or photograph children, sex or nudity or distribute the images or recordings."

In our annual tradition, the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) has compiled a list of some of the most interesting ones. In 2013, all 50 states, plus the commonwealths and territories, met in regular session and enacted nearly 40,000 bills and resolutions. Not all new laws go into effect on the first of the year—it depends on the state’s constitution and whether the statute itself specifies when the law will officially begin. In California, Illinois and Oregon, new laws generally go into effect on Jan. 1 unless the bill specifies otherwise. In other states, laws take effect July 1, 90 days after passage or on a date identified in the bill. Among the wide variety of new laws NCSL has identified, several made news this past year. Newly issued insurance policies purchased through health exchanges under the Affordable Care Act will begin covering patients Jan. 1. The beginning of the year also marks the start of expanded Medicaid coverage in the states that chose to expand. In Colorado, adults will be able to walk into state-licensed shops and buy up to one ounce of marijuana for recreational use."

What's it really like to take a life from thousands of miles away with the push of a button? Modern warfare: Ethan Hawke in Good Kill By Colin Freeman9:52AM BST 11 Apr 2015Follow Its nickname is Predator Porn, and John Reed used to watch it 12 hours a day. Sometimes it was horrific, sometimes it was life affirming; mostly it was just dull. But whenever fellow soldiers at his airbase in Nevada wandered past the \"\"live feeds\"\" from his console, he'd notice how their eyes would wander to the screen and have trouble looking away. Small wonder. For the cameras on the Predator drones that Reed once operated offer a voyeuristic experience unlike no other. Filmed from two miles up, but with a lens so powerful it feels like a hawk hovering at 100 feet, the cameras captured parallel lives in some of Iraq and Afghanistan's most hostile corners. On his screen at the Combined Joint Predator Task Force, 50 miles north of Las Vegas, Reed and his colleagues would watch locals going about their business, sometimes in the harsh light of the midday sun, sometimes in the black and white silhouettes of infrared night vision. Often they would be unsuspecting farmers or market traders, women hanging out the washing or children playing, but sometimes it might be a high-value al-Qaeda or Taliban figure."

State legislatures across the country are debating if and how UAS technology should be regulated, taking into account the benefits of their use, privacy concerns and their potential economic impact. So far, 41 states have enacted laws addressing UAS and an additional three states have adopted resolutions. Common issues addressed in the legislation include defining what a UAS, UAV or drone is, how they can be used by law enforcement or other state agencies, how they can be used by the general public and regulations for their use in hunting game. NCSL has a report, \"\" Taking Off: State Unmanned Aircraft Systems Policies ,\"\" exploring state and federal policies related to UAS. Updates to this report for 2016 and 2017 legislation are also available. State UAS Legislation Beginning in the 2013 legislative session, state lawmakers have frequently considered many pieces of legislation addressing UAS. To learn more about state UAS laws, bills and resolutions, please follow the link covering measures from a specific session below.2017 Legislation At least 38 states considered legislation related to UAS in the 2017 legislative session. Eighteen states–Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, Oregon, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Virginia and Wyoming–passed 24 pieces of legislation. Three states–Alaska, North Dakota and Utah–have adopted resolutions addressing UAS this year."

"text": "Is Coffee Good or Bad For You?by Dr. Edward Group DC, NP, DACBN, DCBCN, DABFMLast Updated on October 14, 2015Many have said that our country runs on coffee. Some might also say we’re addicted to caffeine and the energy it provides. Caffeine is a highly addictive compound that many people have come to depend on for the perception of increased energy. Caffeine operates by preventing the chemical adenosine from telling the brain it’s time to relax. The result is a surge of unnatural energy; but, over time, the brain becomes accustomed to the threshold and requires more caffeine to provide the same alertness. The Benefits to Drinking Coffee Organic, high-quality coffee has been shown to provide some health benefits. Organic Coffee is full of antioxidants which help reduce oxidation, cell damage, and aging. Studies from Saaksjarvi et. al show that drinking coffee may reduce the risk of developing Parkinson’s Disease. [ 1] [ 2]Other studies show that coffee consumption may protect us against type 2 diabetes. ["

There, Mc Donald’s and Dunkin’ Donuts are battling Starbucks, not to mention Caribou Coffee, Peet’s Coffee & Tea and numerous others. And Burger King offers a “turbo-strength” version. But Folgers, whose cans have reliably stood on supermarket shelves for decades, has opened a new flank in the war: a “stomach friendly” coffee for Americans who think they can no longer handle the hard stuff. Folgers is aiming the new product, called Simply Smooth, at what it estimates are the 35 million to 40 million Americans who say they have cut back on coffee consumption or eliminated it because it bothers their stomachs. Simply Smooth, introduced last spring by Folgers’ parent company, Procter & Gamble, is one of a growing number of “stomach friendly” coffees now available. Other, smaller manufacturers are also offering easy-on-the-stomach coffees, including Gentle Java from Coffee Legends and Puroast Low Acid Coffee. And one coffee company, based in Germany, has been marketing to the niche for decades. “This is our target group — all these people that are on Tums or Nexium and say, ‘I’d rather not have a cup of coffee because it hurts my stomach,’ ” said Christoph Tegtmeyer, export director for J.

The answer is that coffee enemas are a powerful liver detoxification tool, a pain relieving therapy, and a therapy for cleansing and healing the colon. Retention coffee enemas are a key part of successful alternative cancer treatment protocols, because they rid the body of toxins that cause cancer and eliminate the toxins released by dead and dying cancer cells. Coffee enemas do all this and more without side effects and at minimal cost. Coffee is More than a Beverage – It can be a Healing Herb When coffee is used in an enema it has powerful healing effects. Definition of a retention coffee enema: Two or more cups of a coffee/water mixture are introduced into the colon/bowel through a tube placed in the rectum, and held in place for a period of time while the coffee herb stimulates the liver, reduces pain, and increases the process of eliminating toxins through the intestine. Dr. Lawrence Wilson, MD, adds these additional benefits that can be obtained from doing coffee enemas. Coffee enemas are part of the nutritional balancing program that he teaches to physicians. Dr. Wilson states that coffee enemas: Clean and heal the colon. Detoxify the liver and colon and help rebuild the liver."

Just don't overdo it and drink them everyday (or multiple times a day). People freak out about EVERYTHING when it comes to pregnancy. Just use common sense and don't over do it. I would drink one very slowly over a few hours and drink lots of water as well.emmer84Answered 2/16/1223 found this helpful Since this was the first link that came up and most of these answers are knee jerk responses, here is what I've found for anyone coming after me who is asking themselves if they can still drink the occasional Monster while pregnant: The energy you get from drinking a Monster does not come from the caffeine. The amount of Caffeine in a 16oz Monster is 160 mg, while 16 oz of COFFEE contains about 266mg. Most caffeine recommendations now say you can have about 300mg of caffeine a day (some foods also contain caffeine, like chocolate)."

"text": "\"How a cup of coffee affects your body from the first sip A morning latte is routine for many people, but how is it affecting your body? Credit: ALAMYSue Quinn23 September 2015 • 12:20pm B ritons guzzle 70 million cups of coffee each day but few of us realise the extent to which our morning brew affects our bodies from the first sip. Recent research has revealed that a late night shot slows down our internal body clock and stops us sleeping – but it does a whole lot more than have us counting sheep into the early hours. Coffee is a chemical juggernaut, quickly absorbed and distributed throughout the body, affecting everything from brainpower and eyesight to digestion and bowel function. However you take yours – cold brew, espresso, pour-over or plunged – coffee affects your entire system. “A single cup of coffee has rapid absorption with caffeine uptake to the blood in just over 20 minutes and will stay in the blood stream for over 12 hours,” says Dr Owen Bain, founder of the Gourmet Focus consultancy. Pulse and blood pressure Shortly after drinking coffee, your blood pressure rises a fraction – the effect is more pronounced if you don’t drink coffee regularly. If you stick to one cup, your heart rate actually slows down due to the increase in blood pressure. “ However, more than a few cups of coffee can cause heart rate acceleration,” Dr Bain says. For healthy people this is not a problem, but may be an issue for those with underlying problems such as heart disease, high blood pressure or abnormal heart rate, according to some experts."

In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger. Even mild dehydration will slow down one’s metabolism as much as 30%. One glass of water shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a U-Washington study. Lack of water is the number one trigger of daytime fatigue. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer."

Those who are overweight will have more water compared to those who are lean. While one can survive fifty days or more without food, the body can only be depleted of water for a few days before survival is at risk. Maintaining optimum fluid balance, and not having an electrolyte imbalance, is important in achieving general good health. This is especially critical in Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome (AFS), where fluid dysregulation and electrolyte imbalance are common occurrences, especially in the advanced stages. Fluid or electrolyte imbalance presents in a continuum. Conventional medicine, unfortunately, is versed mostly when fluid or electrolyte imbalance reaches extreme opposites, with severe dehydration on one extreme and a massive fluid overload at the opposite pole. Fluid overload clinically results in pulmonary edema, peripheral edema, and congestive heart failure. They are quickly resolved with administration of medications called diuretics that increase urine output to reduce body fluid load. Deficiency in fluid, or clinical dehydration, is clinically treated with fluid replacement."

But now that my eldest is a teen, I can see that it won't be long before she starts asking for her own morning cup of joe. So it's time to revisit the question, this time from a more scientific perspective: at what age should kids be allowed to drink coffee? When it comes to coffee, there are a number of factors to consider.

"text": "Health March 7, 2015 PREMIUM FREE TRIALBaldness cure close? Caffeine CAN halt hair loss, says German scientist By Marika Sboros You know the kick caffeine in a cup of coffee gives to your body and mind first thing in the morning. Now, German scientist Dr Adolph Klenk says that same caffeine can prevent hereditary and hormonal hair loss in men and women. Klenk was in South Africa recently to present his pioneering research on caffeine and hair loss to delegates attending the second international conference of the Dr Wolff Group in Cape Town. On the back of his research, Klenk has developed a range products for topical application of caffeine that are available in South Africa (distributed by the Litha Health Care Group) and across the globe. The products are different for men and women, and include shampoos and leave-on tonics with an “oil-free” formulation, designed to prevent any residue on the hair. Klenk is often asked whether drinking enough coffee would have the same effect as his products. It wouldn’t. You’d have to drink to 40 to 50 cups of coffee to get a therapeutic dose of caffeine able to make its way up to your hair root, he says, because caffeine is quickly diluted and excreted by the body. Even if you were able to drink that much coffee, it would be extremely toxic, as caffeine is a drug-like substance with a pharmacological action."

The life cycle of a bird has so many similarities with important human stages of growth we frequently use birds to represent parts of our own deeply felt experience. In general the bird in your dream can depict imagination, intuition, the mind, freedom from restraints, thoughts or hidden wishes or hopes, or your longings to move beyond limitations or boundaries, or even love or a lover. Because the word is sometimes used to indicate a woman, it can have that meaning – i.e. a ‘bird’. The meaning depends on the context in which the bird appears in the dream. So in some dreams, especially if the bird is flying high, or you identify and become the bird, it can show an expanded awareness or a greater insight into your life and the meaning of your life. This type of dream usually appears as a large bird that can fly high. This is because wider – or spiritual – awareness is like a higher, overall view of things.

Egyptian hieroglyphs ( / ˈ h aɪ r ə ˌ ɡ l ɪ f, - r oʊ -/ [2] [3]) were the formal writing system used in Ancient Egypt. It combined logographic, syllabic and alphabetic elements, with a total of some 1,000 distinct characters. [ 4] [5]Cursive hieroglyphs were used for religious literature on papyrus and wood. The later hieratic and demotic Egyptian scripts were derived from hieroglyphic writing; Meroitic was a late derivation from demotic. The use of hieroglyphic writing arose from proto-literate symbol systems in the Early Bronze Age, around the 32nd century BC ( Naqada III ), [1] with the first decipherable sentence written in the Egyptian language dating to the Second Dynasty (28th century BC)."

"text": "\"The Mandarin Duck ( Aix galericulata ), or just Mandarin, is a medium-sized perching duck, closely related to the North American Wood Duck. Mandarin Ducks, which are referred to by the Chinese as Yuan-yang (simplified Chinese: 鸳鸯; traditional Chinese: 鴛鴦; pinyin: yuān yāng), are frequently featured in Oriental art and are regarded as a symbol of conjugal affection and fidelity. A Chinese proverb for loving couples uses the Mandarin Duck as a metaphor: \"\"Two mandarin ducks playing in water\"\" (simplified Chinese: 鸳鸯戏水; traditional Chinese: 鴛鴦戲水; pinyin: yuān yāng xì shuǐ). The Mandarin Duck symbol is also used in Chinese weddings, because in traditional Chinese lore they symbolize wedded bliss and fidelity. Description: It is 41-49 cm long with a 65-75 cm wingspan. The adult male is a striking and unmistakable bird. It has a red bill, large white crescent above the eye and reddish face and \"\"whiskers\"\". The breast is purple with two vertical white bars, and the flanks ruddy, with two orange \"\"sails\"\" at the back. During molting periods when the Mandarin sheds its feathers, the males resemble females but can be distinguished by the red bill (please refer to the photos of the breeding male and to the right, the \"\"Eclipse Male\"\"). The female is similar to female Wood Duck, with a white eye-ring and stripe running back from the eye, but is paler below, has a small white flank stripe, and a pale tip to its bill."

By using the classic children's story, Make Way For Ducklings, we transform the students into ducks, allowing them to view Boston from a very different perspective. This lesson uses a satellite image along with a series of air photos of Boston to give the students a duck’s perspective of the earth. Some of the greatest tools which geographers now have are satellites and air photos that provide us the ability to view the earth from above, much as a duck would. This lesson will introduce basic geographic skills in association with the Make Way For Ducklings’ story line. The lessons are simple and clear, attainable for all levels of elementary students depending on how in depth you wish to present the material. Each section also has an enrichment portion where more complex tasks can be undertaken. Although this lesson focuses on Boston, it is really only a jumping off point, as there are now satellite images and air photos available to the public for the entire United States, and therefore, you can adopt the plan for your local area as well. So, lets put on our wings and fly over Boston in search of a place to raise our young and learn about Geography!Return to Top Grade Level / Time/ Materials Grade level: Elementary grades 1 - 5Time Require: 2 days to 2 weeks or more (depending on the number of options used)Materials: - Pencils, Colored Pencils or Crayons, Rulers, Tracing Paper (Polaroid camera or any camera); - Satellite image from this web page; - The three air photos from this web page; - The Boston map from this web page; - The book Make Way For Ducklings; - Any support material about ducks, Boston, air photos, and satellite images.

For painters of the Gothic , Early Renaissance and High Renaissance eras, birds were part of a rich visual symbolism. In a culture of restricted literacy symbolic imagery was vital in helping to spiritually enlighten the rabble. Narrative paintings, with their layer upon layer of vivid symbolism, provided instruction to the uneducated peasants who craved scriptural guidance. Origen Adamantius, an early Christian theologian stated \"\"If all things were made through Him, clearly so must the splendid revelations have been which were made to the fathers and prophets, and became to them the symbols of the sacred mysteries of religion. \"\" Paintings throughout Western history have been used as guides in illuminating the divine mysteries of Gods Holy Word. Birds of every variety are prominently featured in painting throughout Western art history. Byzantine, Gothic and Early Renaissance paintings are rich in philosophical and Christian symbolism regarding birds. The Finch symbolizes a winged soul returning to heaven. The Peacock symbolizes the Resurrection, everlasting life and incorruptibility."

"text": "\"simonchanart.wordpress.com The Mandarin ducks are the most popular, well known and widely used traditional feng shui cure for love. Note the word traditional, or classical feng shui, which means that a cure is based on culturally specific images, symbols, and overall historical use. Does that mean that you should use the Mandarin ducks as a feng shui cure if you are looking to attract a love partner? It depends on you. The best answer is this: \"\"Choose the Mandarin ducks as a feng shui cure to attract love only if you genuinely, completely and absolutely feel the energy of love and devotion when you look at them.\"\" Do the Mandarin ducks speak to you of love? Or a happy marriage? Be honest with yourself when you choose feng shui cures for your home, because you are the one to benefit (or not) from your honesty and intelligent feng shui work. Because feng shui is considered to have originated in China, most of the classical feng shui cures -- including the use of Mandarin ducks -- have their roots in Chinese folklore. If you grew up in China or Japan, where the Mandarin ducks are widespread -- you most probably have heard stories about the love and devotion of Mandarin ducks."

Answer by Deepikabhansali Confidence votes 259Elephants are browsing animals, feeding on fruits, leaves, shoots, and tall grasses; they consume hundreds of pounds of food a day and drink up to 50 gal (190 liters) of water. They will graze on grass or reach up into trees to grasp leaves, fruit, or entire branches. When an elephant becomes very old, the last set of teeth is worn to stumps, and it must rely on softer foods to chew. Very elderly elephants often spend their last years exclusively in marshy areas where they can feed on soft wet grasses. Elephants are herbivores,, spending 16 hours a day collecting plant food. Their diet is at least 50% grasses, supplemented with leaves, bamboo, twigs, bark, roots, and small amounts of fruits, seeds and flowers. Because elephants only digest 40% of what they eat, they have to make up for their digestive system's lack of efficiency in volume. An adult elephant can consume 140-270 kg (300-600 lb) of food a day."

If you suspect your dog has an ear infection it is extremely important that you consult with your veterinarian to obtain a correct diagnosis. What are Ear Mites? As the name suggests, ear mites are a tiny spider like parasitic mite that infect the ears of dogs and cats. They usually live in the ear canals but can live on other parts of the dog or cat's body. They are more commonly found in cats than dogs. They are a common cause of ear infection in cats, uncommon in adult dogs, but common in puppies under 6 months of age. Ear mites feed on epidermal debris & ear wax. They burrow into the ear, causing inflammation which the body responds to by producing more wax. What are the Symptoms of Ear Mites in dogs?"

In addition to being natural, these home remedies are highly effective which means your pooch will be relieved of the symptoms that are associated with an ear infection faster. Causes Dogs can get an ear infection at any age, regardless of the breed. This is due to the fact that dogs’ ear canals are mostly vertical, unlike humans who have horizontal ear canals. The vertical ear canal makes the ears susceptible to debris, dirt, bacteria, and moisture being retained inside the ear canal. Not only is any type of dog able to develop an ear infection at any life stage, there are also a few different types of ear infections. The different types of ear infections include: Acute Ear Infections Chronic Ear Infections Ear Mites Infestation Foreign Material or Other Causes The different types of ear infections all have different causes.

"text": "\"Ear Mite debris in a cat ear. Wikimedia Commons/Uwe Gille What Are Ear Mites In Dogs and Cats? Ear mites are tiny parasites that live out their life cycle mostly inside the ear canal. They are quite common and can cause severe irritation and itchiness of the ears. The most common ear mite of cats and dogs is Otodectes cynotis, and therefore an infestation with ear mites is sometimes called \"\" otodectic mange . \"\" Ear mites primarily live in the ear canal, where they feed on skin debris. Their presence causes inflammation, and can also lead to secondary ear infections. Eggs are laid in the ear, and it takes about 3 weeks for eggs to hatch and develop into adult mites that can reproduce. While ear mites are generally found in the ears, they can also wander out onto the body, causing irritation and itchiness of the skin as well. How Are Ear Mites Spread?"

If your dog is constantly itching its ears, or you can see discharge from the ear or inflammation, there’s a fairly good chance your dog either has an infection or mites. If you see dark brown or black debris that looks similar to coffee grounds (or white dots in the debris), then your dog most likely has ear mites. Dog mites will feed on the dog’s ear wax and can actually cause an ear infection in your pooch. Ear infections are more common in dogs with long hanging ears, eg. golden retrievers, basset hounds, beagles, etc. The first thing to do is clean your dog’s ears… keep reading for further info on how to make an ear wash for your dogs ears.

George Doyle & Ciaran Griffin/Stockbyte/Getty Images I t can be difficult to understand some of your dog's more idiosyncratic behaviors, but when he's rubbing his head on the floor, it usually means one of only a few things. Sometimes it's because something is wrong with your dog, and he's rubbing his head on the floor as temporary means of relief. Other times, it's a relatively harmless habit. If you notice your dog rubbing his head frequently, monitor his behavior and consult your vet. Spreading Smells Dogs don't always rub their heads on things because something is wrong -- sometimes they just like doing it. If your dog is rubbing his head on the floor, it may be because he smells something there that he finds appealing and he wants to pick up the scent for himself. This is especially common when you get outside, where dogs may like to rub their heads and shoulders in the grass. Your dog could be rubbing his head this way because he wants to spread his own scent and mark his territory.

What are ear mites? Ear mites in dogs and ear mites in cats are tiny little creatures rather like spiders. They have eight legs and live on or just under the surface of the skin. The two species of mites that cause ear infections are Otodectes and Notoedres. Otodectes infect dogs, cats, foxes and ferrets. Notoedres infect cats—usually the body and sometimes the ear. A common mite that causes skin infection and may involve areas of the head around the ears is demodex.

The Earth's crust forms from many other layers of sedimentary deposit, which form above and below the asthenosphere."

Tectonics means large-scale structure. So \"\"plate tectonics\"\" says that the large-scale structure of the Earth's outer shell is a set of plates. ( see the map)Tectonic Plates Tectonic plates don't quite match the continents and the oceans on the Earth's surface. The North America plate, for instance, extends from the west coast of the U. S. and Canada into the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. And the Pacific plate includes a chunk of California as well as most of the Pacific Ocean (see the list of plates ). This is because the continents and ocean basins are part of the Earth's crust. But plates are made of relatively cold and hard rock, and that extends deeper than the crust into the upper mantle.

Earth, which is a spheroid, is not a monolithic, uniform structure, but divided into layers having different characteristics. Starting from the center of the earth, it is the core that is encountered first (3400km radius). Then comes the mantle that surrounds this core and has a radius of 2890km. The surface of the earth down to the mantle that literally floats on the mantle is called the crust and is made of basalt and granite. The lithosphere is a layer that includes the crust and the uppermost portion of the asthenosphere. Thus, the lithosphere contains the oceanic crust, continental crust, as well as the uppermost mantle. It confuses many as to why there are two names for the same layer of earth. Well, it has to do with different ways scientists study the earth and its properties. While lithosphereis studied with the mechanical properties of the earth in mind, the crust is studied with a focus on the chemical composition of the earth."

"text": "Students explore the formation of mountains copyright Summary Students investigate how mountains are formed. Concepts include the composition and structure of the Earth's tectonic plates and tectonic plate boundaries, with an emphasis on plate convergence as it relates to mountain formation. Students learn that geotechnical engineers design technologies to measure movement of tectonic plates and mountain formation, as well as design to alter the mountain environment to create safe and dependable roadways and tunnels. This engineering curriculum meets Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Engineering Connection Engineers create tunnels through mountains for transportation purposes. Before constructing a mountain tunnel, geotechnical engineers bore test holes into the mountain rock to sample and analyze the material that will be bored or drilled into during tunnel construction. To succeed with these big projects, engineers must have a solid understanding of the drilling process, and the composition and features of the mountain of interest—both of which are determined during the mountain's ancient formation. Pre-Req Knowledge Students should have some familiarity with the existence of tectonic plates, that they move and the various tectonic plate boundaries that exist. Learning Objectives After this lesson, students should be able to: Explain the connection between tectonic plates and mountain formation. Describe several types of technologies designed by engineers that are related to mountain formation, including tools and processes for measuring formation, predicting natural hazards, and determining the location of natural resources."

"text": "\"Plate tectonics Plate tectonics is a theory of geology developed to explain the phenomenon of continental drift, and is currently the theory accepted by the vast majority of scientists working in this area. In the theory of plate tectonics the outermost part of the Earth 's interior is made up of two layers, the outer lithosphere and the inner asthenosphere. The lithosphere essentially \"\"floats\"\" on the asthenosphere and is broken-up into ten major plates: African, Antarctic, Australian, Eurasian, North American, South American, Pacific, Cocos, Nazca, and the Indian plates. These plates (and the more numerous minor plates) move in relation to one another at one of three types of plate boundaries: convergent (two plates push against one another), divergent (two plates move away from each other), and transform (two plates slide past one another). Earthquakes, volcanic activity, mountain -building, and oceanic trench formation occur along plate boundaries (most notably around the so-called \"\" Pacific Ring of Fire \"\"). Plate tectonic theory arose out of two separate geological observations: continental drift, noticed in the early 20th century, and seafloor spreading, noticed in the 1960s. The theory itself was developed during the late 1960s and has since almost universally been accepted by scientists and has revolutionized the Earth sciences (akin to the development of the periodic table for chemistry, the discovery of the genetic code for genetics, or evolution in biology ). Missing image Tectonic_plates.png The tectonic plates of the world were mapped in the second half of the 20th century. [ edit]Key principles The division of the Earth's interior into lithospheric and asthenospheric components is based on their mechanical differences. The lithosphere is cooler and more rigid, the asthenosphere is hotter and mechanically weaker."

Flag What happens to the plates along a transform fault? Answer by Nikki9710 Confidence votes 18A transform fault is one of the 4 types of boundaries where tectonic plates of the Earth's crust meet; it is a location where two plates meet in such a way that they slide past each other, moving parallel to the line of the fault. The liquid mantle and soft lower crusts slide past each other rather smoothly in a motion called shearing, while the solid and brittle upper crusts are stuck together by static friction. Eventually enough force is built up by the movement of the lower crusts to overcome the static friction and suddenly allow the adjacent upper crusts to slip past each other. Tremendous waves of energy are released by this sudden slip, causing the Earth's crust to vibrate violently in an earthquake; in a major slip, the energy waves can create structural damage many miles from the location of the slip (the \"\"epicenter\"\").10 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

Flag What technological instruments help scientists monitor earthquakes? Answer by SBDW1 _ Confidence votes 30.0KScientists who study earthquakes are known as seismologists. They will use seismometers to measure the frequency and amplitude of the seismic waves produced when an earthquake occurs. They also measure the deformation of the earth's surface around fault zones. This measurement is often made using high precision GPS to measure relative positions of surface features around the fault zone. They may also use terrestrial laser scanning equipment which can measure changes in the ground shape (essentially recording deformation) or by using a special form of radar (synthetic aperture radar) and a technique called interferometry (the combined use is known as synthetic aperture radar interferometry or In SAR for short). This process essentially involves the use of a radar to create a series of very accurate relief maps of the ground surface over time and then to compare the maps to create a final plot showing the changes between them which is essentially a record of the land surface deformation. They may also use strain gauges and tilt metres within boreholes to observe ground deformations as well as a technology known as time domain reflectometry which is an electrical technique used to locate damage and deformation in electrical cables and which in turn can be used to measure deformations.3 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

"text": "\"Science Earth Science Earthquakes Q: What Type of Stress Is Placed on a Normal Fault? A: Quick Answer The type of stress placed on a normal fault is tensional stress. In normal faulting, tensional stress gradually weakens the Earth's crust until the rock cracks, with one crustal block moving downwards relative to its adjacent fault block. Continue Reading Keep Learning What Is the Definition of \"\"reverse Fault\"\"? Why Did the Great Kanto Earthquake Happen? What Are Some of the Main Characteristics of an Earthquake? Full Answer A fault along the Earth's crust is identified by the corresponding type of stress that caused its formation. In geology, a stress is defined as the amount of force exerted on a unit of surface area. Generally, shear stress forms transform faults, compressive stress creates reverse faults and tensional stress produces normal faults. Tensional stress usually occurs along divergent plate boundaries, where the Earth's massive crustal plates move in opposite directions."

"text": "\"Live Science Planet Earth The Devastating Haiti Earthquake: Questions and Answers By Live Science Staff | January 13, 2010 06:22am ETMOREThe earthquake that devastated Haiti Tuesday was the strongest temblor to hit the island nation in more than 200 years. The magnitude 7.0 quake caused tremendous damage that officials have yet to fully characterize, and the death toll may run into the thousands. What caused the Haiti earthquake, and why was it so devastating? Here are answers to these and other questions: What caused the earthquake? The shaking started on Tuesday, Jan. 12, at 4:53 p.m. EST (21:53 UTC) in the Haiti region, just 10 miles (15 km) southwest of Port-au-Prince. The Haiti earthquake occurred at a fault that runs right through Haiti and is situated along the boundary between the Caribbean and North American plates, which are rocky slabs that cover the planet and fit together like a giant jigsaw puzzle. These two plates constantly creep past one another, about 0.8 inches (20 mm) a year, with the Caribbean plate moving eastward with respect to the North American slab. \"\" Twenty millimeters a year of slippage is very small, and that’s not what people felt,\"\" said Carrieann Bedwell, geophysicist with the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC). Rather, they felt the release of energy from the Enriquillo-Plaintain Garden fault system. \"\" The two sides of the fault line moved past each other in an east-west direction and that's what caused the energy release and the Haiti earthquakes,\"\" Bedwell said."

Credit: NHK via APA devastating 8.9-magnitude earthquake rocked the east coast of Honshu, Japan, early Friday morning, triggering a 30-foot-high tsunami that has caused the U. S. National Weather Service to issue a warning for at least 50 countries or territories around the Pacific. The tsunami waves have already reached Hawaii, where officials have ordered an evacuation of Hawaii's coastal areas. Why do some earthquakes cause tsunamis while others don't? [ Continuing coverage of Japan disaster]A few factors come into play: the strength of the quake, the direction of the temblor's motion and the topography of the seafloor. First, magnitude of the quake, which is a measure of the amplitude of the largest seismic wave recorded for the earthquake, must exceed a certain threshold. The 8.9-magnitude of Japan's earthquake was enough to trigger a tsunami, but the magnitude-7.7 earthquake that struck Indonesia in October 2010 just surpassed the threshold for causing a tsunami. ( Magnitudes are measured on a logarithmic scale, so a magnitude-5 temblor would have seismic waves that are 10 times greater in amplitude than a magnitude-4 earthquake. )\"\" Earthquakes below 7.5 or 7.0 usually do not trigger tsunamis,\"\" said geophysicist Don Blakeman of the U.

Earthquakes can range in size from those that are so weak that they cannot be felt to those violent enough to toss people around and destroy whole cities. The seismicity or seismic activity of an area refers to the frequency, type and size of earthquakes experienced over a period of time.

The following gives details of the affect chemical fertilizers have on our soil. Soil Friability: Chemical fertilizers destroy the friability of soil. Chemical fertilizers contain acids, including sulfuric and hydrochloric acids. These acids dissolve “soil crumbs”, the material that holds rock particles together. When these cementing materials are destroyed, the result is a compacted surface that prevents rain water from entering the soil. Soil Micro-Organisms: Chemical fertilizers affect micro-organisms living in the soil. This acidity also adversely affects the soil ph, thereby changing the kinds of microorganisms that can live in the soil."

They play an important part in fertilizing the soil and they also help with oxygen and water flow into the soil. Earthworms excrete tons of castings (excrement) each year, which is a powerful fertilizer. Just think, 25 earthworms per square foot of soil equal 1 million earthworms per acre. In healthy soil, 40 tons of castings per acre pass through earthworms’ bodies daily. A new U. S. study suggests that there are 1.5 million worms per acre, which move 20 tons of earth each year. Earthworms also burrow into the soil creating passageways for oxygen and water. Because earthworms are so important to the survival of the earth’s plants, trees, and crops, when trying to get rid of destructive creatures such as grubs, you must take special care not to harm the earthworms. There are several ways to accomplish this. Before we discuss how to get rid of grub worms without killing earthworms, it is important to understand the lifestyle of the grub worm."

Lawn Savers • 2 weeks ago Its hard to tell, generally newly sodded lawns are laid on ground that has been properly prepared, leveled and graded for drainage. This could include amending or adding new soil. It should then be rolled to ensure sod to soil contact and to eliminate air pockets. After that, all activity should stop for several weeks except for watering as you could create new bumps or depressions."

"text": "The Best Organic Fertilizers for a Vegetable Garden Posted on March 24, 2010 by Admin in Vegetable Gardening Tips // 5 Comments Tweet As vegetable gardeners, we are always faced with a myriad of questions. There are so many different choices in vegetable varieties, tool options, and much, much more. One of the most common questions many gardeners ask is, “What fertilizers should I use?”. This is a great question because there are so many fertilizer options with many different applications, it can easily send a gardener into a whirlwind of confusion and doubt. If you are interested in growing organically, which I hope you are, then you should use organic fertilizers. Organic simply means it is related to, or derived from, living organisms and is not manufactured through chemicals. Organic fertilizers provide the best nutrients and minerals for a healthy garden because they are naturally occurring. Man may attempt to replicate what nature provides with chemical “super fertilizers”, but it pales in comparison to the raw power of using what nature already gives us. So, what are the best organic fertilizers we can use for vegetables? Here are my favorite choices (in no particular order): Compost Compost is by far the most widely used fertilizer and soil amendment in vegetable gardens today; and rightfully so!"

"text": "Earthwormsby Clive A. Edwards, The Ohio State University THE LIVING SOIL: EARTHWORMSOf all the members of the soil food web, earthworms need the least introduction. Most people become familiar with these soft, slimy, invertebrates at a young age. Earthworms are hermaphrodites, meaning that they exhibit both male and female characteristics. They are major decomposers of dead and decomposing organic matter, and derive their nutrition from the bacteria and fungi that grow upon these materials. They fragment organic matter and make major contributions to recycling the nutrients it contains. Earthworms occur in most temperate soils and many tropical soils. They are divided into 23 families, more than 700 genera, and more than 7,000 species. They range from an inch to two yards in length and are found seasonally at all depths in the soil. In terms of biomass and overall activity, earthworms dominate the world of soil invertebrates, including arthropods. Earthworms Earthworms generate tons of casts per acre each year, dramatically altering soil structure."

[ 3] Echinoderms are found at every ocean depth, from the intertidal zone to the abyssal zone. The phylum contains about 7000 living species, [4] making it the second-largest grouping of deuterostomes (a superphylum), after the chordates (which include the vertebrates, such as birds, fishes, mammals, and reptiles ). Echinoderms are also the largest phylum that has no freshwater or terrestrial (land-based) representatives. Aside from the hard-to-classify Arkarua (a Precambrian animal with echinoderm-like pentamerous radial symmetry), the first definitive members of the phylum appeared near the start of the Cambrian. One group of Cambrian echinoderms, the cinctans ( Homalozoa ), which are close to the base of the echinoderm origin, have been found to possess external gills used for filter feeding, like chordata and hemichordata. [ 5]The echinoderms are important both ecologically and geologically. Ecologically, there are few other groupings so abundant in the biotic desert of the deep sea, as well as shallower oceans."

Although adult echinoderms possess pentaradial, or five-sided, symmetry, echinoderm larvae are ciliated, free-swimming organisms that organize in bilateral symmetry which makes them look like embryonic chordates. Later, the left side of the body grows at the expense of the right side, which is eventually absorbed. The left side then grows in a pentaradially symmetric fashion, in which the body is arranged in five parts around a central axis.

A deep-sea clam found in the North Atlantic takes up to 100 years to grow to a length of one centimeter. Oysters can change their sex from male to female to male and so on, throughout their lives. Cone shells, a gastropod, carry fast-acting neurotoxic venom. There are several species of mollusk that are capable of killing humans. Because they are unable to move and feed by filtering particles from the water, mussels and oysters can accumulate certain types of chemicals. In several countries samples of mussels and oysters are regularly collected to monitor ocean pollution. Charles Darwin spent 39 years studying earthworms more than 100 years ago. The Australian Gippsland Earthworm grows to 12 feet long and can weigh 1-1/2 pounds. Some earthworms can live over 10 years."

In addition to a soft body often covered by a shell, a mollusk has a thin layer of tissue called a mantle that covers its internal organs, and an organ called a foot. Mollusks have bilateral symmetry and a digestive system with two openings. Most species of mollusks have an open circulatory system, in which the blood is not always inside blood vessels. Most mollusks that live in water have gills, organs that allow oxygen from the water to enter the body. Biologists classify mollusks into groups based on physical characteristics such as the presence of a shell, the type of shell, the type of foot, and the type of nervous system. Gastropods are the largest group of mollusks, and include snails and slugs. Gastropods have a single external shell or no shell at all. Gastropods can live nearly everywhere on Earth.

Its habitat is in the Baja Bay. They often migrate from somewhere in the Baja Bay or the Canadian sounds. The Purple Sea Urchin's scientific name is Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, belongs in the Echinoderm phylum group. An adult Purple Sea Urchin's diameter is about three and one fourth inches across and the spines are about one third of an inch long. This sea urchin's color ranges from a light purple to a deep reddish purple but young sea urchins are usually green. Adult sea urchins have a five sided radial symmetry.

"text": "An endoskeleton is a bone or cartilage-based skeleton that exists wholly inside of an animal’s body. All vertebrates, including humans, have endoskeletons. Echinoderms — a class that includes starfish and some sea anemones — also have this sort of bone structure. It is characterized by a spine from which bones extend, protecting the animal’s internal organs from within. While never visible on an animal from the outside, the endoskeleton is nevertheless an essential aspect of animal anatomy. It is completely contained within the body, and grows as the animal grows. This makes it different from an exoskeleton in several respects. Many insects and crustaceans have exoskeletons, which are tough, shell-like structures that cover the body from the outside. These structures are static, which means that they do not grow. Animals with exoskeletons either remain at a constant size throughout their lives or molt their old exoskeletons in order to generate entirely new ones as they grow."

Introducing Pentameral Symmetry The uniform symmetry of echinoderms sets the creatures off from other marine life. All echinoderms are pentameral -- they have limbs in multiples of five. This trait is easily recognizable in starfish and brittle stars with only five limbs. However, observing this trait in other echinoderms, like sea urchins and sand dollars, may be more difficult due to their round or disc shapes.

Economic freedom or economic liberty is the ability of people of a society to take economic actions. This is a term used in economic and policy debates as well as in the philosophy of economics. [ 1] [2] One approach to economic freedom comes from classical liberal and libertarian traditions emphasizing free markets, free trade, and private property under free enterprise. Another approach to economic freedom extends the welfare economics study of individual choice, with greater economic freedom coming from a \"\"larger\"\" (in some technical sense) set of possible choices. [ 3] Other conceptions of economic freedom include freedom from want [1] [4] and the freedom to engage in collective bargaining. [ 5]The free market viewpoint defines economic liberty as the freedom to produce, trade and consume any goods and services acquired without the use of force, fraud or theft. This is embodied in the rule of law, property rights and freedom of contract, and characterized by external and internal openness of the markets, the protection of property rights and freedom of economic initiative. [ 3] [6] [7] There are several indices of economic freedom that attempt to measure free market economic freedom."

Part of a series on Capitalism Concepts [show]Economic systems [show]Economic theories [show]Origins [show]Development [show]People [show]Related topics [show]Ideologies [show]Capitalism portal Economics portal Philosophy portal Politics portalv t e In economics, a free market is an idealized system in which the prices for goods and services are determined by the open market and consumers, in which the laws and forces of supply and demand are free from any intervention by a government, price-setting monopoly, or other authority. Proponents of the concept of free market contrast it with a regulated market, in which a government intervenes in supply and demand through various methods such as tariffs used to restrict trade and protect the economy. In an idealized free market economy, prices for goods and services are set freely by the forces of supply and demand and are allowed to reach their point of equilibrium without intervention by government policy. In scholarly debates, the concept of a free market is contrasted with the concept of a coordinated market in fields of study such as political economy, new institutional economics, economic sociology, and political science. All of these fields emphasize the importance in actually existing market systems of rule making institutions external to the simple forces of supply and demand which create space for those forces to operate to control productive output and distribution. One famous statement of the scholarly approach to the concept of free markets within political science is Freer Markets, More Rules [1] by Steven K. Vogel. As the title suggests, the scholarly study of free markets is more accurately understood as the act of increasing or decreasing how strict rules are (more free or less free; liberalizing or deliberalizing) rather than the idealized concept of free markets as a state of the world."

Someone proposes that since armed robbery is a very serious crime, armed robbers should get a life sentence. A constitutional lawyer asks whether that is consistent with the prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment. A legal philosopher asks whether it is just. An economist points out that if the punishments for armed robbery and for armed robbery plus murder are the same, the additional punishment for the murder is zero—and asks whether you really want to make it in the interest of robbers to murder their victims. That is what economics has to do with law. Economics, whose subject, at the most fundamental level, is not money or the economy but the implications of rational choice, is an essential tool for figuring out the effects of legal rules. Knowing what effects rules will have is central both to understanding the rules we have and to deciding what rules we should have. The fundamental assumption of the economic approach, to law and everything else, is that people are rational."

Unfortunately, there isn’t a standard answer, although there is a well-known joke economists like to tell regarding the difference between the two. But, let’s come back to that later. Recession Let’s start by defining a recession. As I mentioned, there are several commonly used definitions of a recession. For example, journalists often describe a recession as two consecutive quarters of declines in quarterly real (inflation adjusted) gross domestic product (GDP). The definition used by economists differs. Economists use monthly business cycle peaks and troughs designated by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) to define periods of expansion and contractions. The NBER website lists the peaks and troughs in economic activity starting with the December 1854 trough."

[ 4] In many ways, the tulip mania was more of a hitherto unknown socio-economic phenomenon than a significant economic crisis. And historically, it had no critical influence on the prosperity of the Dutch Republic, the world's leading economic and financial power in the 17th century.

"text": "Home | CEE | 2nd edition | Inflation E conomists use the term “inflation” to denote an ongoing rise in the general level of prices quoted in units of money. The magnitude of inflation—the inflation rate—is usually reported as the annualized percentage growth of some broad index of money prices. With U. S. dollar prices rising, a one-dollar bill buys less each year. Inflation thus means an ongoing fall in the overall purchasing power of the monetary unit. Inflation rates vary from year to year and from currency to currency. Since 1950, the U. S. dollar inflation rate, as measured by the December-to-December change in the U. S. Consumer Price Index (CPI), has ranged from a low of −0.7 percent (1954) to a high of 13.3 percent (1979). Since 1991, the rate has stayed between 1.6 percent and 3.3 percent per year. Since 1950 at least eighteen countries have experienced episodes of hyperinflation, in which the CPI inflation rate has soared above 50 percent per month. In recent years, Japan has experienced negative inflation, or “deflation,” of around 1 percent per year, as measured by the Japanese CPI. Central banks in most countries today profess concern with keeping inflation low but positive."

A business cycle is typically characterized by four phases—recession, recovery, growth, and decline—that repeat themselves over time. Economists note, however, that complete business cycles vary in length. The duration of business cycles can be anywhere from about two to twelve years, with most cycles averaging six years in length. Some business analysts use the business cycle model and terminology to study and explain fluctuations in business inventory and other individual elements of corporate operations. But the term \"\"business cycle\"\" is still primarily associated with larger (industry-wide, regional, national, or even international) business trends. STAGES OF A BUSINESS CYCLERecession A recession—also sometimes referred to as a trough—is a period of reduced economic activity in which levels of buying, selling, production, and employment typically diminish. This is the most unwelcome stage of the business cycle for business owners and consumers alike. A particularly severe recession is known as a depression. Recovery Also known as an upturn, the recovery stage of the business cycle is the point at which the economy \"\"troughs\"\" out and starts working its way up to better financial footing."

S. economy was hemorrhaging 800,000 jobs a month. The unemployment rate continued to rise during Obama’s tumultuous first year, peaking at 10 percent that October. That feels like a long time ago. Today’s jobs report showed that the economy added 280,000 jobs in May, a record 63rd straight month of employment growth. The private sector has added 12.6 million jobs during that stretch, and unemployment is now 5.5 percent. Meanwhile, the housing market has bounced back, inflation has remained low, and the federal budget deficit has steadily decreased. But there’s still a nagging sense of national disappointment about the economy, a widespread feeling that wages are too low, inequality is too extreme, growth is too sluggish, and the American Dream is slipping out of reach for the middle class. Obama’s approval rating is still below 50 percent, and Republican presidential candidates are all running against Obamanomics, denouncing the last six years as an era of public-sector overreach and private-sector stagnation."

Any other kind of social scientist would be perplexed by thinking of the Nobel Prize, or of the Medal of Honour, in these terms. In contemporary neoclassical economics, the concept of incentive is a primitive, similar to that of “utility”, “price”, “production” or “consumption”, that all economists use but none feels the need to define: it is a foundation, or a corner stone, of the science of economics. However, if we tried to articulate what economists mean by incentives, we would probably find that they are considered as any “motivation” for adhering to and for complying with some form of contract. Once incentives are intended in this all-embracing way, it immediately follows that prizes and awards are considered simply as their sub-set. Yet many real world prizes and awards do not follow this contractarian, consequentialist logic and cannot be understood within this framework. A more complex understanding of human motivation–we believe – is needed to hold that prizes are indeed not incentives. This search cannot ignore the history of economic and philosophical ideals. Competing theories of action and motivation were central topics of debate among eighteenth century philosophers. David Hume, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Adam Smith’s theories implied much more complex social and economic motivations than mere self-interest, which can be opportunely diverted through an appropriate incentive."

This is a direct result of a lack of certain economically ideal factors, which prevents equilibrium.... Externalities, by Bryan Caplan, from the Concise Encyclopedia of Economics Positive externalities are benefits that are infeasible to charge to provide; negative externalities are costs that are infeasible to charge to not provide. Ordinarily, as Adam Smith explained, selfishness leads markets to produce whatever people want; to get rich, you have to sell what the public is eager to buy. Externalities undermine the social benefits of individual selfishness. If selfish consumers do not have to pay producers for benefits, they will not pay; and if selfish producers are not paid, they will not produce. A valuable product fails to appear. The problem, as David Friedman aptly explains, \"\"is not that one person pays for what someone else gets but that nobody pays and nobody gets, even though the good is worth more than it would cost to produce.\"\"... Research and development is a standard example of a positive externality, air pollution of a negative externality.... Public Goods and Externalities, by Tyler Cowen, from the Concise Encyclopedia of Economics Most economic arguments for government intervention are based on the idea that the marketplace cannot provide public goods or handle externalities. Public health and welfare programs, education, roads, research and development, national and domestic security, and a clean environment all have been labeled public goods.... Externalities occur when one person's actions affect another person's well-being and the relevant costs and benefits are not reflected in market prices."

The causes of the Great Depression in the early 20th century have been extensively discussed by economists and remain a matter of active debate. They are part of the larger debate about economic crises. The specific economic events that took place during the Great Depression are well established. There was an initial stock market crash that triggered a \"\"panic sell-off\"\" of assets. This was followed by a deflation in asset and commodity prices, dramatic drops in demand and credit, and disruption of trade, ultimately resulting in widespread unemployment (over 13 million people were unemployed by 1932) and impoverishment. However, economists and historians have not reached a consensus on the causal relationships between various events and government economic policies in causing or ameliorating the Depression. Current mainstream theories may be broadly classified into two main points of view. The first are the demand-driven theories, from Keynesian and institutional economists who argue that the depression was caused by a widespread loss of confidence that led to underconsumption. The demand-driven theories argue that the financial crisis following the 1929 crash led to a sudden and persistent reduction in consumption and investment spending . ["

[ 1] The length of a business cycle is the period of time containing a single boom and contraction in sequence. These fluctuations typically involve shifts over time between periods of relatively rapid economic growth ( expansions or booms), and periods of relative stagnation or decline ( contractions or recessions ). Business cycles are usually measured by considering the growth rate of real gross domestic product. Despite the often-applied term cycles, these fluctuations in economic activity do not exhibit uniform or predictable periodicity. The common or popular usage boom-and-bust cycle refers to fluctuations in which the expansion is rapid and the contraction severe.

Sismondi found vindication in the Panic of 1825, which was the first unarguably international economic crisis, occurring in peacetime. Sismondi and his contemporary Robert Owen, who expressed similar but less systematic thoughts in 1817 Report to the Committee of the Association for the Relief of the Manufacturing Poor, both identified the cause of economic cycles as overproduction and underconsumption, caused in particular by wealth inequality."

"text": "Preventing Blossom End Rot In Tomatoes Posted on June 17, 2009 by Admin in Growing Tomatoes // 0 Comments Tweet One problem that tomato growers have faced at one time or another is blossom end rot. There is nothing more frustrating than picking what appears to be a nice tomato, only to find that the bottom end (or blossom end) has started to rot. Many times it is prevalent early in the season, but tends to settle out after the first few tomatoes. If you are having some issues with blossom end rot, there are some techniques you can use to help prevent it. What Is Blossom End Rot? In short, blossom end rot is a condition where the tomato (or any flowering vegetable/fruit for that matter) begins to get a brown or darkening spot on the blossom, or “bottom” end. The decaying will generally become larger as the tomato gets larger. Once a tomato begins showing signs of blossom end rot, it is too late. It is best to go ahead and pick off the rotted fruit and chunk it in the trash, or compost pile. What Causes Blossom End Rot?"

The best way to control harmful pests and insects is to design your total garden landscape and annual gardening strategy to incorporate continuous companion planting ideas and various intense gardening and biodiversity concepts in order to increase beneficial insect and animal populations to control the harm animals and insect populations. Intensive organic mulching through your garden landscape also controls many pests. Some advanced organic gardeners don't even use any natural pesticides or fungicides, because their soil structure and garden techniques encourage massive populations of beneficials. However, there are exceptions where a few ideas are needed to control pests. Here is a simple list of classic organic and natural concepts:1. Companion planting and intense gardening - you can plant certain plants close together to help fight diseases, control pests, or even improve the soil for its neigboring plants' health.2. Garlic, onions - all alliums are great for killing soft body insects. Flying insects can be paralyzed by direct hits. Also a great fungicide."

"text": "The p H of soil and water is a measure of the amount of acid or alkaline they contain. It ranges from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. A p H below 7 is acidic and above 7 is alkaline. Nutrient deficiencies can occur if the p H is outside of the range that a particular plant likes – tomato plants are happiest with a p H around 6.8, just on the acid side. Garden Soil If you grow tomatoes on an allotment or directly in your garden soil, measuring the p H could be very useful and will give you the opportunity to make adjustments for the following season. To change the p H value of soil may take some time for organic additives such as egg shells to break down in the soil. Lime raises p H and ammonium sulphate lowers soil p H. Grow Bags If you use grow bags and multi-purpose compost to grow your tomatoes, it may be better to adjust the p H of the water you use than the soil. You will probably only use that soil for tomatoes for one season, unless you have a method of avoiding disease when re-used. Rain Water Saving rain water is ideal as the p H is usually slightly acidic and ideal for tomato plants and many other plants too!Here’s a graph that shows the accessibility of nutrients to plants at various p H levels. You can see that iron, manganese and zinc are available at low levels when the p H is slightly acidic."

S.-based pet food manufacturer with plants located in Meta, Missouri, Lathrop, California and Gaston, South Carolina. The company is a family-owned, privately-held enterprised, still managed by the Schell and Kampeter family. Taste of the Wild is a relatively new brand of dog food, debuting around 2007 to meet the market demand for premium “natural” dog foods and grain-free foods with better ingredients. The headquarters for Diamond are in Meta, Missouri and the company was founded in 1970. At that time brothers-in-law Gary Schell and Richard Kampeter bought Milling Meta Co., a producer of livestock feed and dog food. Early distribution was limited to within 100 miles of Meta, Missouri and only about 5 percent of the company’s production was dog food. Diamond expanded its manufacturing to include plants in San Joaquin County California in 1999 and Gaston, South Carolina in 2002. Compare 4Health To The Top Selling Dog Food Brands On The Market Recall History The Taste of the Wild site gives no indication that the food is made by Diamond and many people who feed this food are unaware of the connection. Diamond has had a history of recalls due to aflatoxins, concerns about Salmonella, and production issues at least since around 1999-2000, including a large recall in 2005, and many consumers have lost confidence in the company and the products they produce. Nevertheless, Diamond manufactures or co-packs food for many other brands including Canidae, Solid Gold, Costco’s Kirkland, Dick Van Patten’s Natural Balance, Tractor Supply’s 4Health, and Nutra Gold."

"text": "Snails and Slugs Snail Scientific Name: Helix aspera Slug Scientific Name: Gastropoda Pulmonata Snail and Slug Facts Snails and slugs are mollusks and are considered pests due to their ability to produce sticky trails of mucus wherever they go. They are a garden plight and can cause significant damage to plants in spite of their tiny size. Snails and slugs feed on a variety of plants and flowers and do not seem differentiate between indoor, outdoor or greenhouse foliage. Homeowners may notice snails and slugs that attach to garden fencing or structures during cooler weather. Their slimy trail is what enables snails and slugs to live away from water reserves and facilitates their movement. Snails and slugs are hermaphrodites, which means they do not require mates in order to reproduce; it only takes one to occupy a garden if allowed sufficient time and resources. They can become a pest if left uncontrolled and a series of prevention methods should be incorporated. Snails and Slugs Identification Snails are effectively slugs that have a strong, spherical shell attached to their back, which they use as a form of protection and compact accommodation. Snails and slugs share a common genetic bodily structure but are classed as two significant species; a slug is not a snail without a shell, as is often misidentified. You may notice a shiny residue underneath or around plants or in your garden; this is a telltale indication of their presence."

"text": "\"Home »Produce Egg Shells & Gardening By Dawn Walls-Thumma; Updated September 21, 2017In an effort to save money and avoid synthetic fertilizers and amendments, many gardeners turn to the trash can. Every day, U. S. households discard items that are useful in solving common garden problems and promoting plant health. Eggshells are one such unsung hero, possessing the ability to restore nutrients to your garden soil and prevent infestations of pests such as slugs. Purpose As a soil amendment, eggshells provide calcium, one of the nutrients that plants need to grow. Because eggshells are common household byproducts that usually end up in the trash, eggshells are commonly added to compost or used in organic gardening to provide a natural alternative to synthetic fertilizers that restore calcium levels. Sprinkled around plants, eggshells also discourage pests such as slugs, slicing their undersides as they crawl across the eggshells on their way to the plant they intend to feed upon. Function The calcium in eggshells raises soil p H in the same way as agricultural lime without the potential for overapplication and harm. Calcium serves important functions within the plant, including strengthening the plant's cell wall, which provides added structure, and promoting the growth of root hairs. Plants deficient in calcium show stunted growth of the leaves and roots. Preparation Preparing eggshells for use in the garden is an easy process."

Those wonderful worm excrements give baby plants a nice gentle feeding—the same kind they'd receive in a natural setting where leaf litter encourages earthworms to live nearby and poop out plant food.

But I think (and you hope) that your love apples have succumbed to the MUCH more common verticilliumor fusarium wilt instead.

Giving your ducks treats and supplements to their diets is good for their health, and keeps things interesting for them. They appreciate something new from time to time. Treats can be given as often as daily or weekly/monthly depending your personal needs/schedule/budget. My ducks get a few treats daily, (but that's because they are spoiled rotten ) ---Whenever feeding a duck anything, make sure they have access to water for drinking, so they do not choke.--- I put *stars* next to each item to signify which treats ducks seem to like the most, based on my own experiments thus far. One Star* means this treat is not always a favorite of ducks, while five stars***** means most ducks really enjoy the treat. This however is not always the same in every duck, but rather is a guide in helping you chose which treats to experiment with.

"text": "How to Prevent Zucchini and Squash Blossom End Rot The links in the post below may be affiliate links. Read the full disclosure By Mavis Butterfield on June 9, 2013 · 22 Comments Carlie from Virginia sent in this photo of one of her zucchini’s and was wondering what had happened to it. Well Carlie, it’s called blossom end rot. I’ve had to deal with blossom end rot in tomatoes before, and it is sooo frustrating. You think you are going to get tons of beautiful red tomatoes, and then you lift them up to find they’ve all turned on you. It’s maddening. But, did you know that blossom end rot can happen in your zucchini and squash too? It’s a little less common, but still, better to take precautions than lose a whole crop, right? Blossom end rot happens for pretty much one reason: a calcium deficiency. The thing is, pretty much the only thing you can do for end rot is to prevent it."

Which, as you might think at our house, is the perfect simpatico relationship. We have a sweet brood of laying hens that work hard for my breakfast…and our garden. Not only are their eggs great for eating (we won’t discuss the Easter when I ate a dozen deviled eggs! ), they are fantastic supplements for the soil. When I’m not crushing the shells to feed back to the chickens for extra calcium in their diet, I “feed” the shells to the compost pile, which, in turn, decomposes into a rich, robust food for my plants. Rough, crushed shells placed around the base of plants are also a great deterrent for slugs. This Dominique hen is one of our favorite brown egg layers."

Max Falkowitz Profile Twitter Contact47 Printer-Friendly Version Round and round the wheel of egg yolks goes. [ Photographs: Robyn Lee]Why does one recipe for ice cream melt fast and loose, while another stays cool and scoopable after resting on the counter for 15 minutes? Why are some ice creams so dense and rich that you almost have to chew them? And why do some ice creams taste full-bodied and almost warm while others are dead-ringers for frozen cream? The answer, at least a partial one: eggs. Eggs, specifically egg yolks, play several roles in homemade ice cream. You can make tasty ice cream without them, but there's a reason that almost every recipe published in the last 50 years calls for them. Here's why: After water, egg yolks are mostly fat and protein. Fat, which freezes differently and less hard than water, makes ice cream soft and creamy."

"text": "Feature Articles Making safe homemade ice cream Written from materials by Karma Metzgar & Susan Mills-Gray, Nutrition and Health Education Specialists; Reviewed by Londa Nwadike, State Food Safety Specialist, University of Missouri Extension At one time uncooked eggs were used to make ice cream, but now we know in order to reduce the risk of Salmonella poisoning, a custard-based recipe, an eggless recipe or a recipe using an egg substitute should be used. “Homemade ice cream is a special treat for many, but every year it causes several outbreaks of Salmonella infection with up to several hundred victims at church picnics, family reunions or other large gatherings,” says John Sheehan, director of the Food and Drug Administration’s Division of Dairy and Egg Safety. The ice cream ingredient most often responsible for the outbreaks: raw (uncooked) or undercooked eggs. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention reports 45-50 outbreaks annually in the United States, resulting in illness in more than 1,300 people. A person infected with Salmonella Enteritidis (SE), the strain of salmonella found most frequently in raw eggs, usually has fever, diarrhea and abdominal cramps beginning 12 to 72 hours after eating or drinking a contaminated food or beverage. The infection generally lasts four to seven days, and most people recover without any treatment. But for those at high risk — infants, older people, pregnant women and people with a weakened immune system — it can be life threatening. While commercially manufactured ice cream is typically made with pasteurized eggs or egg products, recipes for homemade ice cream often use raw eggs in the base mixture. Homemade ice cream can be made with eggs without the risk of Salmonella infection by preparing it safely. Here are some safe alternatives to using raw eggs in your homemade ice cream: Use pasteurized shell eggs or pasteurized egg substitutes instead of raw eggs, if the recipe calls for that."

If you are lucky enough to have been gifted with (or have purchased yourself) your first Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer, you’re probably really excited to use it, but you may not know quite where to start. Never fear, we’ve put together the ultimate guide to using the Kitchen Aid mixer, explain what each of the attachments are for and we also highlight some of the accessory options you can pick up in the future for even more fun in the kitchen. What Do Those Speeds Mean Anyway? Seeing 10 speeds on a machine can seem a bit daunting, but the unnumbered/in-between speeds are for fine tuning, so the ones you really need to pay attention to are as follows: Stir Speed: You should always start with your mixer on this speed and amp up from there. Whenever you are adding flour to the mixture this speed should be used, otherwise you will be engulfed in a cloud of flour. This is also a good speed to use if the directions tell you to “stir until combined”. Speed 2: Slow Mixing What should be slow mixed? Heavy batters like cheesecakes and mashing things like bananas or potatoes. If you’re baking biscuits or any type of baking that involves cutting in fat, use this speed."

"text": "Most commercial ice creams contain things like guar gum, locust bean gum, carrageenan, xanthan gum, polysorbate 80, monoglycerides, and diglycerides. What are these scary-sounding things, and why are they in our ice cream? In the ice cream business, these are all known as “stabilizers”, and they mainly help with two things: reducing iciness, and extending shelf life. The first time I made strawberry ice cream it came out really icy and cold because of all the extra water in the fruit. I tried it again with a packet of powdered gelatin and it made a huge improvement. That’s when I realized that there might be something to this stabilizer business, even in homemade ice cream. As for the part about extending shelf life, that’s especially true when you take a pint of ice cream out of the freezer and put it back after a few minutes. Each time it warms up a little and then re-freezes, it re-freezes at a much slower rate than when you churned it in your ice cream machine. When you freeze it quickly, you get smaller ice crystals that taste smooth. But when it re-freezes slowly, you get larger crystals."

Pros for whipped cream are lower sugar content, lighter weight and texture, brighter white color, etc. Cons, though -- whipped cream must be kept refrigerated, and the moisture soaks into the cake or pastry, so day-old items are well past their prime. A cake frosted with whipped cream does not freeze well. It's slightly tricky to whip cream to its maximum stiffness without over-whipping. But sweet butter is tasty, if you whip too long! Traditional home butter cream is made with 1/4 lb. butter, 1 lb. confectioners (powdered) sugar, and a little liquid. Meh, that's ok if you're not fussy."

Homemade ice cream comes in two basic styles: Custard-style (also called French) and Philadelphia-style (also called New York or American ). Custard-style ice cream starts with a cooked base enriched with egg yolks, sugar, and cream. This style of ice cream has the smoothest, creamiest, richest texture and flavor. Philadelphia-style ice cream contains no eggs, eliminating the need to cook a base. The texture is lighter and more delicate than custard-style ice cream. It's also faster to make because there's no cooked base to cool before churning.

One of my healthy living goals for our family this year is to cut back on the amount of sugar we consume. Sugar consumption has been in the news recently because we eat A LOT of it! And the consensus is that it is definitely not good for us!I know, I know. You’re probably be thinking, “Aw, come on! What’s so bad about added sugar? We can’t completely deprive our kids of sweet treats! Stop trying to spoil our (their) fun!”However, the reality is the average American child consumes 21 teaspoons of added sugar per day, just 1 teaspoon less then the average adult! And the recommended daily consumption for a child is just 4 teaspoons of added sugar, and 4 to 6 for adults. So clearly our sugar consumption is a little out of control!And sugar is definitely not on the list of healthy foods for the New Year!"

Elastic arteries: These arteries that receive blood directly from the heart - the aorta and the pulmonary artery. : These need to be elastic because: They are relatively thin compared to their diameter. When the heart contracts, and ejects blood into these arteries, the walls need to stretch to accommodate the blood surge, storing energy. The arterial hydrostatic pressure that results from ventricular contraction is the 'systolic blood pressure' (systole is greek for contract). Between heart contractions, the elastic walls recoil, to maintain blood pressure, continuing to move blood even when ventricles are relaxed. The arterial hydrostatic pressure between contractions is the 'diastolic blood pressure' (diastole is greek for dilatation). The walls of these arteries have lots of elastin. Tunica adventitia - has small 'vasa vasorum' as the large arteries need their own blood supply. Tunica media is broad and elastic with concentric fenestrated sheets of elastin, and collagen and only relatively few smooth muscle fibres."

Causes of venous ulceration. Diagnosis of venous ulceration External compression Bandage classification Pressure requirements Conclusions References Appendix: Definitions Summary The successful management of venous leg ulcers represents a significant clinical problem and a major drain on limited financial resources. Research has shown that the majority of ulcers can be induced to heal by the application of adequate levels of sustained graduated compression although this technique is contra-indicated for the treatment of ischaemic ulcers. Bandages vary greatly in their ability to provide sustained compression due to differences in their structure and the content of elastomeric yarns. Other factors, such as limb circumference and shape, will also have an important influence on the pressure produced beneath a compression bandage. This article describes a classification system in which bandages are grouped according to their function and performance, in order to facilitate the choice of an appropriate product. Brief guidelines are also provided on the differential diagnosis of venous leg ulcers. Epidemiology of leg ulcers. Leg ulcers are a chronic condition, the treatment of which has been estimated to cost the United Kingdom's National Health Service (NHS) between £300 and £600m per annum. ["

It receives substances from the digestive tract via the portal vein, including metabolites, nutrients, and toxins. The liver normally conjugates (degrades) toxins, but may be overwhelmed by them. The liver has both exocrine and endocrine functions: Exocrine functions include the production of bile from metabolic conversions of substrates from the digestive tract, pancreas and spleen. Secretion occurs via bile ductules draining into the hepatic duct, the gallbladder , the cystic duct, the common bile duct and, finally, into the duodenum. Endocrine functions include the release of substances produced by liver cells into blood , including albumin, lipoprotein , globulins, liver glycogen , and T3 ( thyroid hormone ). Blood supply to the liver The liver's unique blood supply arises from two sources:75% of the liver's blood comes from the hepatic portal vein, carrying deoxygenated blood from the small intestine, pancreas and spleen."

No. They have smooth muscle but no elastic fibers. Their smooth muscle is less than arteries. Elastic fibers provide recoil which is what you need in arteries to propel the blood forward.

Follow 1 answer Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart so they are dealing with high blood pressure flow. Arteries have thick muscular walls (a lot of smooth muscle) which are also 'elasticated' for flexibility (elastin fibres). They also have a fairly small lumen (hole in which the blood flows through). The thick walls and flexibility allow the arteries to efficiently deal with the high blood pressure flow. Veins carry deoxygenated blood toward the heart so they are dealing with low blood pressure flow. Veins are very similar to arteries in their structure, but differ slightly. Veins have large lumens and relatively thin muscular walls (less smooth muscle, less elastin fibres). In addition, veins have valves to prevent back flow of the deoxygenated blood. All these elements allow veins to deal with low blood pressure flow effectively."

It is composed of a single layer of endothelial cells and a small amount of subendothelial connective tissue. The intima is separated from the media by a dense elastic membrane called the internal elastic lamina. The media is the thickest layer and provides structural support, vasoreactivity and elasticity.

"text": "Veins Veins are blood vessels which carry deoxygenated (or very low levels of oxygen) blood back to the heart. The exception to this rule is the pulmonary vein, which carries oxygenated blood, from the lungs, back to the heart, ready to be pumped around the rest of the body. At tissue level, capillaries drain blood into venules, which are very small veins, which as they return to the heart merge into larger veins before reaching either the Superior Vena Cava (if returning from tissues and organs above the heart) or the Inferior Vena Cava (if returning from tissues and organs below to the heart). The Inferior Vena Cava is larger than the Superior Vena Cava. These two large arteries merge and return blood to the right atrium of the heart. Structure The structure of veins is similar to that of arteries, again consisting of three layers: Tunica Adventitia: This is the strong outer covering of arteries and veins which consists of connective tissues, collagen and elastic fibres. Tunica Media: This is the middle layer and consists of smooth muscle and elastic fibres. This layer is thinner in veins. Tunica Intima: This is the inner layer which is in direct contact with the blood flowing through the vein. It consists of smooth endothelial cells."
