"text": "\"Dr. Mehmet Oz, MDCardiology (Cardiovascular Disease)Heart valves separate the four chambers of the heart that collect and pump blood, and control the direction of blood flow. Watch this animation to see how the heart valves work. Dr. Michael Roizen, MDInternal Medicine Your heart valves play a key and surprisingly basic role in the never-ending cycle of blood through the heart: They are doormen that keep the blood from getting lazy and retracing its journey, leaking backward into the chambers it has just left. There are valves between each atrium and ventricle -and between each ventricle and the blood vessel that leaves it. As the blood swishes through, the valves slam shut, producing what we hear on TV as a heartbeat. ( Doctors listening through the stethoscope are trying to hear how your heart valves are functioning; the \"\"crispness of the sound\"\" describes how well the valves are coming together; timing differences between the valves' sounds can indicate electrical differences between the two sides of the heart, and murmurs can indicate the size of the valve openings or any leakage through the valves.) The valves are crucial to the heart's functioning because a little leakage within the heart is a dangerous thing. If the valves are inefficient or malformed, if they waver rather than slam open and closed, blood can pool in the atrium, just like with atrial fibrillation . And when blood pools for any amount of time, it is programmed to do one thing: clot. Inside the heart, a clot leads to disaster."

This is because the pressure from the heart is so great that valves are not needed to prevent the backflow of blood.

"text": "Aortic Valve Disease What is the Aortic Valve? The aortic valve is one of the valves of the heart. It is normally tricuspid (with three leaflets), although in 1% of the population it is found to be congenitally bicuspid (two leaflets). It lies between the left ventricle and the aorta. What is the function of the Aortic Valve? During ventricular systole (heart beat- emptying phase), pressure rises in the left ventricle (one of the chambers of the heart). When the pressure in the left ventricle rises above the pressure in the aorta, the aortic valve opens, allowing blood to exit the left ventricle into the aorta (the oxygen rich blood which comes from the lungs). When ventricular systole ends, pressure in the left ventricle rapidly drops (the relaxation or the filling phase of the heart). When the pressure in the left ventricle decreases, the aortic pressure forces the aortic valve to close. So the aortic valve is essentially the barrier between body and heart, which is why it is so important."

The reason being that the pressure on the system is sufficient to propel blood back to the heart. It is the veins further away from the heart in the lower limbs that have valves. This is to ensure that blood only flows in one direction ie back to the heart. This system of valves is need to overcome the effect of gravity working against the upward flow of venous blood. The valvular system is assisted by lower limb muscles that contain veins - compression of these veins due to muscle contraction occurs sending blood upstream, which is why these muscles are sometimes referred to as the peripheral heart. This valvular system is uni - directional - it allows blood to go towards the heart only. These valves can often fail as we age causing varicose veins.6.6k Views · View Upvoters Your response is private."

It is most common in people who have a damaged, diseased, or artificial heart valve. See a picture of endocarditis. What causes endocarditis? Endocarditis is caused by bacteria (or in rare cases, by fungi) that enter the bloodstream and settle on the inside of the heart, usually on the heart valves. Bacteria can invade your bloodstream in many ways, including during some dental and surgical procedures. If you don't take care of your teeth, having your teeth cleaned or even brushing your teeth can cause bacteria to enter the bloodstream. What increases the risk for endocarditis? If you have a normal heart, you have a low risk for endocarditis."

"text": "Disease Reference More Overview Symptoms Causes Risk factors Complications Prevention Diagnosis Treatment Lifestyle and home remedies Preparing for an appointment Aortic valve stenosis Overview Aortic valve stenosis — or aortic stenosis — occurs when the heart's aortic valve narrows. This narrowing prevents the valve from opening fully, which reduces or blocks blood flow from your heart into the main artery to your body (aorta) and onward to the rest of your body. When the blood flow through the aortic valve is reduced or blocked, your heart needs to work harder to pump blood to your body. Eventually, this extra work limits the amount of blood it can pump, and this can cause symptoms as well as possibly weaken your heart muscle. Your treatment depends on the severity of your condition. You may need surgery to repair or replace the valve. Left untreated, aortic valve stenosis can lead to serious heart problems. Symptoms Aortic valve stenosis ranges from mild to severe. Aortic valve stenosis signs and symptoms generally develop when narrowing of the valve is severe. Some people with aortic valve stenosis may not experience symptoms for many years."

The summer might be slow, but it can also provide an opportunity for a new place to establish itself, perfect its menu, and work the kinks out of its service before the busy season puts the pressure on. Those who live here year-round, September is a final chance to hit the hot new spots before it's a two-hour wait for a table. Luckily for us, a few new establishments made a grand entrance over the summer in anticipation of the return of season (and all the tourists and snowbirds it brings with it). From a celebrity-owned sports bar to a Miami import that specializes in Peruvian-Japanese fusion — even a restaurant located inside an artists' compound — this year has already delivered a wide variety of new concepts. We're happy to welcome each and every one, but only a handful stand out for their solid concepts, creative menus, and topnotch service.

"text": "At first you may have to rack your brain a bit to think what sort of fruits come from palms. You might be surprised how many do, and some of these fruits are among some of the most important fruits from an economic as well as health point of view. Coconut is the first fruit that probably comes to mind, and date fruits might be the next. Both of these are important in the world economies. But one you may not have known was a palm fruit is the Acai berry. There are dozens more, most which are tropical in origin, but a few which can be grown and enjoyed even in marginal warm temperate climates such as found in parts of California, Florida, Texas, Arizona and a few of the southeastern states. If you want to be absolutely accurate, almost all palm fruits are edible, though I would not really recommend eating most of them. Some are toxic however, and have high levels of oxalates in them so these are palm fruits that definitely should be avoided (see article on Dangerous Palms ). I have tried numerous palm fruits myself and have been disappointed most of the time. However our local squirrels seem to like them regardless and palm fruits are a large part of many Fox Squirrel diets in Southern California."

You’ve probably heard these referred to as “heart healthy oils,” a good alternative to those “artery clogging saturated fats. ”These oils are supposed to help lower cholesterol and blood pressure, increase weight loss, and somehow improve overall health. Only one problem…. again, science doesn’t back these claims up!What Are Vegetable Oils/Margarine? Vegetable oils (and margarine, made from these oils) are oils extracted from seeds like the rapeseed (canola oil) soybean (soybean oil), corn, sunflower, safflower, etc. They were practically non-existent in our diets until the early 1900s when new chemical processes allowed them to be extracted. Unlike butter or coconut oil, these vegetable oils can’t be extracted just by pressing or separating naturally. They must be chemically removed, deodorized, and altered. These are some of the most chemically altered foods in our diets, yet they get promoted as healthy."

Besides being at the top of the list of many people’s favorite foods, they are all possible sources of trans fats. Trans fats are oils that have been chemically-altered (through a process called hydrogenation) from their original liquid states, into solid shortening. The process increases the shelf life of the oil and improves the texture of the food to which the oil is added. However, when you add those foods to your grocery cart, you’re increasing your risk of heart disease because trans fats are artery-clogging professionals. In fact, the Nurse's Health Study of 80,000 women found that a 2% increase in trans fat consumption increased a woman’s risk of heart disease by 93%. Take a stroll down the cookie or snack aisle of your local grocery store and you’ll see ”No Trans Fat” or \"\"Now with Zero Trans Fats\"\" splattered all over food packages. If you find yourself wondering what the heck trans fat is, how it got into your food in the first place, or why it's gone now, then read on to find the answers to these questions and more. What is trans fat? Trans fat is created through a process called hydrogenation, which adds hydrogen molecules to highly unsaturated (liquid) oil, such as vegetable oil, corn oil, or soybean oil."

And while the former is certainly dominant in our liquor shops and restaurants (and the latter dominant in our hearts and minds), there’s a whole continent out there full of spirits that aren’t just fermented rice. Some are distilled fermented rice. And that’s only the beginning. To see which eight extraordinary Asian boozes you should taste next, we spoke to Hamish Smith, deputy editor of Drinks International, and Nima Ansari, spirits buyer at NYC's Astor Wines, for their picks. Recommended Video Bottoms Up Your Next Martini Needs Sake and Cucumber Ice Cubes Watch More Flickr/Marko Kudjerski Baijiu China What it is: A distilled liquor made out of sorghum (a cereal grain, related to corn) What’s the deal: Despite your efforts to single-handedly elevate Midori's profile every time you go to the bar, baijiu is apparently the world’s best-selling spirit (it accounts for one in four of all spirits consumed). It’s a clear beverage that looks like vodka, but tastes like basically nothing else on the American market -- a bit sweet at first, with a bitter, alcohol-heavy aftertaste that kinda makes it the Malort of Asia. It usually clocks in at around 40-60% ABV, and you feel all of it. Which ones you should try: byejoe, Moutai, Red Star Flickr/Ryan Mc Bride Shochu Japan What it is: A distilled rice/sweet potato/buckwheat/barley wine What’s the deal: Shochu is the whiskey to sake’s beer; basically, it’s a distilled version of the same ingredients that make up sake, except in shochu, the rice can be replaced by sweet potato, buckwheat, or barley, depending on the distiller and the region. Its ABV usually hovers somewhere around 25%, located snugly between wine and whiskey."

With research coming in at breakneck speed in recent years, even experts have a hard time agreeing about which fats we should consume, and in what exact proportions, to improve our health and prevent chronic disease. Here we review what the strongest evidence says about healthy choices to make at the grocery store and in your kitchen. Are saturated fats still bad? Yes, no lucky break here: saturated fat, found mainly in such food as meat, butter, and full-fat cheese or ice cream, is still worse for you than the unsaturated fat found in vegetable oils, nuts, and avocados. Replacing saturated fat with unsaturated fat lowered the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascualr events, according to a 2012 review by the independent Cochrane Collaboration. It concluded that for every 1,000 people in the studies, there were 77 such events for people on a regular diet compared with 66 for those on a reduced saturated-fat diet. But there’s an important caveat: Make sure you replace saturated fat with with healthful alternatives, not refined carbohydrates (which are found in such items as white bread and many snack foods). Otherwise, you probably won’t reduce your risk of heart disease and may well increase it, according to a recent report from the United Nations. As Penny Kris-Etherton, Ph."

As the old saying goes, “some are more equal than others”. Coconut oil actually helps you lose weight and stay healthy in ways that no other fat can match. In particular, note that: Coconut oil is good for cooking, because saturated fat is not harmed by heat — unlike unsaturated oils, as explained in What’s Wrong with Partially Hydrogenated Oils? Coconut oil does not contain the trans fats that produce insulin-resistance, diabetes, cancer, and autoimmune diseases, as described in in Trans Fats: Metabolic Poisons.

Flax oil will turn rancid in fifteen minutes at room temperature. Coconut oil lasts about five years, but just after three years you can taste a difference. Partially Hydrogenated oils have a very long shelf life too. This is one reason the food industry uses these trans fats in many processed foods; the shelf life is artificially extended. Olive oil will last longer if you store it in the refrigerator. Some nutritionists have even recommended putting a little BHT into your olive oil to keep it from turning rancid.

In general you should use whole ingredients rather than ground, as they are easier to strain out. You can chop ingredients up or coarsely crack them to expose more surface area for infusing. Bittering agents usually make up 10 to 50% of the blend and may include plants like angelica root, artichoke leaf, barberry root, black walnut leaf, burdock root, calamus root, cinchona bark, citrus peel, dandelion root and leaf, devil's club root, gentian root, horehound, licorice root, mugwort, Oregon grape root, orris root, quassia bark, sarsaparilla, wild cherry bark, and wormwood.

All buildings (including shops, offices, factories and laboratories) have complicated, precise heating and ventilation systems to make them work effectively. These can take many forms, such as a series of ventilation grilles on classroom walls or a large network of pipes across factory ceilings. The heating and ventilating industry installs innovative systems and new technologies such as air and ground source heat pumps to make buildings as energy efficient as possible. To do this, the industry requires highly-trained engineers who have the skills to install increasingly complex systems. Heating and ventilating engineers may be involved in a diverse range of duties: Pipework and Ductwork Installers use their skills to cut, form, weld and join a wide range of materials used within a heating and ventilating system. Control and Commissioning Engineers use their knowledge to ensure systems meet the design requirements for the building. Maintenance Engineers identify faults, fix them and plan and carry out service and maintenance activities on all heating and ventilating systems, making sure they work efficiently and effectively. Heating Engineers install complex heating equipment and pipework systems, within large buildings such as office blocks, hospitals and schools.

"text": "\"Close Calls on Camerawith Jason Poremba Flashover: Time to Get Out Jun 10, 2009By Jason Poremba Firefighters are all taught about the dangers of flashovers in fires and the limited time they have to get themselves to safety. Flashovers are a rapid event that involve a significant increase in fire growth and development. Typically this is a change from a fire located at a specific source or \"\"fuel package\"\" to a fire that takes over every other combustible object of the compartment involved without actual flame contact. The heat transfer at and beyond flashover is primarily by radiation. This first video contains footage from a flashover in Texas: Flashover TV is powered by Fire Rescue1.com To understand how to get out of a flashover, we must first understand what a flashover is. NFPA 921 defines flashover as, \"\"A transitional phase in the development of a compartment fire in which surfaces exposed to thermal radiation reach its ignition temperature more or less simultaneously and fire spreads rapidly throughout the space resulting in full room involvement or total involvement of the compartment or enclosed area.\"\" So what are the factors involved in a flashover? Here are some, compiled from various sources: Location of fire Size of compartment Shape, area and volume of compartment Heat gain and heat loss Contents and their relative surfaces, materials, etc. Ambient temperature at beginning of fire Location and height of doors, windows and openings Fire growth rate This second video shows a flashover with firefighter bailout: Flashover TV is powered by Fire Rescue1.com In reading \"\" Flashover and Fire Analysis \"\" by Patrick and Kathryn Kennedy, we also learn that just because a fire leads to full room involvement, it does not always mean the room flashed over. Reports point out that ventilation is one of the most significant factors in whether flashover ever occurs, with Vincent Dunn describing it as one of his three recommended ways to delay such an event."

"text": "June 28, 2017 by Mike Vousden Air conditioning vs climate control – what’s the difference? Back in the 1930s, car manufacturers started to offer a brand new option: electric heaters built into the dashboard. Then, a few years later, Nash Motors, which went out of business in 1954, came up with a way to run fresh air past the engine. The engine heated the air, the air heated the cabin and the cabin kept the passengers toasty. Everyone was happy. We’ve come a long way since then and it’s now pretty unusual to find a car that doesn’t have air conditioning as standard. Air con augments Nash’s ventilation system with a cooling capability, using a compressor to lower the temperature – much like a fridge. Many cars now come with climate control, either as standard or an option. It’s a natural progressional from air conditioning, just as air con was a logical step up from heating and ventilation. Let us explain…Basic heating and ventilation controls on a Lotus Elise Heating and ventilation This is the most basic system, and it features in every car."

Causal Factors Modern office buildings are generally considered safe and healthful working environments. However, energy conservation measures instituted during the early 1970's have minimized the infiltration of outside air and contributed to the buildup of indoor air contaminants. Investigations of indoor air quality (IAQ) often fail to identify any harmful levels of specific toxic substances. Often employee complaints result from items such as cigarette smoke, odors, low-level contaminants, poor air circulation, thermal gradients, humidity, job pressures, lighting, work-station design, or noise. Appendix III:2-1 presents a brief discussion of these items. B. Incidence The range of investigations of indoor air quality problems encompasses complaints from one or two employees to episodes where entire facilities are shut down and evacuated until the events are investigated and problems corrected. Complaints are often of a subjective, nonspecific nature and are associated with periods of occupancy. These symptoms often disappear when the employee leaves the workplace."

The purpose of the PCV valve is to remove any trapped unburnt gases/moisture within the crankcase & sends them through the combustion process again.

Secondly why do we have such increased oil consumption? And the last question: what to do? Let's start from the beginning. What is considered to be excessive or high engine oil consumption? For most unforced and medium-forces engines (the ratio of engine power to the working volume is no more than 70 - 75 hp / L) normal engine oil consumption is that figure at which the oil level (during all oil lifecycle) decreases from the top to the bottom of the label probe. As for highly accelerated engines for general use (not sport engines) in order to keep an acceptable condition they are designed in a way to improve lubrication and provide the heat removal from the key parts of CPG. That is all accompanied by an increased rate of oil consumption."

"text": "Room air distribution From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Characterizing how air is introduced to, flows through, and is removed from spaces is called room air distribution. [ 1] HVAC airflow in spaces generally can be classified by two different types: mixing (or dilution) and displacement. Contents [ hide ]1 Mixing systems1.1 Outlet types2 Displacement ventilation3 See also4 References Mixing systems [ edit]Mixing systems generally supply air such that the supply air mixes with the room air so that the mixed air is at the room design temperature and humidity. In cooling mode, the cool supply air, typically around 55 °F (13 °C) (saturated) at design conditions, exits an outlet at high velocity. The high velocity supply air stream causes turbulence causing the room air to mix with the supply air. Because the entire room is near-fully mixed, temperature variations are small while the contaminant concentration is fairly uniform throughout the entire room. Diffusers are normally used as the air outlets to create the high velocity supply air stream. Most often, the air outlets and inlets are placed in the ceiling. Supply diffusers in the ceiling are fed by fan coil units in the ceiling void or by air handling units in a remote plant room. The fan coil or handling unit take in return air from the ceiling void and mix this with fresh air and cool, or heat it, as required to achieve the room design conditions."

Thermal comfort is the condition of mind that expresses satisfaction with the thermal environment and is assessed by subjective evaluation ( ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55 ). [ 1] The human body can be viewed as a heat engine where food is the input energy. The human body will generate excess heat into the environment, so the body can continue to operate. The heat transfer is proportional to temperature difference. In cold environments, the body loses more heat to the environment and in hot environments the body does no exert enough heat. Both the hot and cold scenarios lead to discomfort.

The positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve and hose connect the engine crankcase, where the crankshaft is installed, to the intake manifold, allowing the lower half of the engine to release gases and pressure when the engine is operating. How does the pcv valve work? As the engine operates, small fires inside each engine cylinder create pressure that pushes the engine piston down, toward the crankshaft, and some combustion gases from the fire in the cylinder are able to get around the piston, and enter the crankcase. Also, heat from the engine causes the air inside the crankcase to expand. If this condition were left untreated, the engine would develop leaks, and would suffer severe inefficiency, if it ran at all. To prevent this situation, the crankcase ventilation system connects the crankcase to the intake manifold."

The main reasons people grow their own chickens are:to have a supply of fresh eggs,for fresh meat,pest and weed control,and a supply of nitrogen-rich manure. What you plan to do with your flock will determine (to some degree) what you will need to do to get set up. For example, if you want to let your chickens run through your garden once in a while to gobble up insects, you will need to set up some means for controlling their access to the garden so they can't get in to eat tiny seedlings. If you want chickens for eggs, you will need to include nesting boxes in your hen house design. The end purpose will also determine the composition of your flock. Some chickens, such as Leghorns, have been bred as layers, others have been bred for rapid meat production. Yet others, such as Rhode Island Reds, are good dual-purpose birds. If you are raising chickens to show, you will become very selective about their breeding."

"text": "\"Categories: All > Chicken Facts All > Chicken Care > Baby Chick Care All Q: At what age can my chickens begin eating treats? A: We don't really recommend feeding your new baby chicks treats right away, because they should first learn what their feed is so they will be able to get a balanced diet. Treats do not provide a balanced, nutritious diet, and it's important to give your chicks a good start in life. Keep in mind that if the baby chicks are raised by mother hen, she will get them to eat anything good that she eats, right from the beginning. There is never an age that they are too young for free ranging or eating some specific food. They are hardy little birds. The big thing is to make sure they have what they need to properly digest what they eat, and that their diet is nutritious enough for them. They grow rapidly and need a lot of nutrition, so if they eat mostly treats, they may not get the balance of vitamins and minerals they need. When eating anything other than their finely milled starter, they will need grit in order to digest it properly.

Then further down the chapter you will see the difference that years of experience make when breeding good quality birds. Don't forget the WCBC CLUB IS HERE TO HELP YOU. The breeding season normally starts towards the end of March. By this time I ensure the birds have at least 14 hours of light (the light is extended by about 20 minutes per week from the beginning of January) with a minimum temperature of 10C (50F). I use a double breeding cage per pair with the cock and hen initially separated with a slide in the middle of the cage. I like to have the pairs next to each other for at least a fortnight before pairing together to finally assess that the pairing is correct. Once I am happy I pull the slide away from the back of the cage by about 1 cm so that the birds can see each other. I also put a little nesting material in the bars of the cage of the hen bird and watch her reaction. If she starts carrying it in the back of her beak she is heading towards being in breeding condition."

Countryside Magazine Contributor • January 6, 2018Read Comments (16)106 0 101 0 2 1 7By Byron Parker – It’s getting easier for people outside the backyard poultry community to understand why so many of us choose to dedicate a portion of our lives to raising and caring for backyard chickens. I don’t get the same reaction I used to from suburbanites when they find out I raise backyard chickens through casual conversation. Instead, most people end up telling me about someone in their neighborhood that is raising a few backyard chickens. In fact, it has become quite easy to influence outsiders to take part in this “unusual” hobby simply by telling a story or two about our beloved chickens and their unforgettable antics. Let’s face it, stories about dogs and cats are about as interesting as a glass of warm water and dry toast for dinner. Who hasn’t heard the one about the dog that chased its tail? It’s not that it wasn’t funny but I suspect your audience has seen this behavior before. Now tell the story about the rooster that chased your screaming mother-in-law around the backyard, suddenly people become very interested in what you are saying. You’ll still have plenty of opportunity to talk about your dog when you raise backyard chickens as the two can produce some entertaining and crowd-pleasing stories, provided the story doesn’t end with the dog eating the chicken."

In fact we culled him before we began raising our new flock of meat and breeder birds. Just knew the stress of new birds would freak him out to no end. I think there could be a perfect balance where two roosters could be at peace with each other as long as one of them can't possibly hoard all the hens. In other words... As long as they have enough territory and aren't able to manage all the hens, the roosters should get along."

There are a few things to prepare for before jumping into a backyard flock of your own. After determining whether or not you are “allowed” to have hens in your area (not that I think you should even have to ask for permission), the next thing you’ll need to plan for is secure housing for them. Considering Predators Chickens have many predators, and your birds won’t last long for too many nights without cover. Whether you live out in the country, or in a suburban neighborhood, hawks, raccoons, opossums, weasels, rats, snakes, foxes, and even neighborhood (or your own) dogs will be happy to make a quick snack out of your lovely chickens. How To Predator-Proof Your Coop: Make it something animals can’t dig into. Having a dirt floor makes it easier to clean, however rats, weasels, and foxes can easily dig in and gain access to your flock. A wood floor works well."

Eggs from truly organic, free-range chickens are FAR less likely to contain dangerous bacteria such as salmonella, and their nutrient content is also much higher than commercially raised eggs. The dramatically superior nutrient levels are most likely the result of the differences in diet between free ranging, pastured hens and commercially farmed hens. If you are eating organically, then you have learned how important the diet and care of an animal is to the quality of its meat, and in this case, their eggs. But have you ever thought about what happens to these eggs AFTER they are collected? You would think that organic eggs would be your best choice when picking them up at the grocery store.

"text": "Categories: All > Chicken Health All Q: Is Salmonella a concern with backyard chickens? A: Not usually, but let us explain why. Humans do not catch salmonella from chicks or chickens the way you would catch a cold from your neighbor. Salmonella is food poisoning; you get it from eating infected meat or eggs. Even then, in order to get a case of salmonella, the meat and eggs you have eaten must be improperly prepared, that is, not completely cooked through. Or, you can also get salmonella by getting your hands or something else contaminated with feces and then putting that thing in your mouth. People more at risk for contracting Salmonella are very young, very old, pregnant or have immune systems that are already compromised in some way. The best way to keep your children and family safe from infection is by keeping your own hens whose conditions you can monitor, and by having your family members wash their hands after dealing with chickens. You want to have them wash hands after dealing with any pets, for that matter. Alcohol is an effective sanitizer for salmonella bacteria."

"text": "\"Raising Chickens Farm Animals What to Do With a Broody Hen Tips on handling and how to break a broody hen By Lauren Arcuri Updated 02/23/18Share Pin Email Loop Images/David Cheshire / Getty Images A broody hen is a chicken that has decided to sit on and hatch a clutch of eggs. The eggs may be fertilized or unfertilized. The broody hen will sit on the eggs day and night, leaving only once daily to eat, drink, and poop. If you try to remove her from her eggs, she may hiss at you and peck you. Broodiness is driven by several factors: genetics, hormone, instinct, and lighting conditions. Some breeds are more prone to going broody than others. Buff Orpingtons, for example, are very broody hens. And if a hen has a dark, comfortable, undisturbed spot where she can nest, she may roll a clutch of eggs (usually twelve to fourteen) to that spot and begin to brood. She will pluck the feathers from her own breast so that her moist, warm skin keeps the eggs warm, and the feathers insulate the nest. If anyone tries to disturb her, she will hiss, growl, shriek, puff up, and peck at you."

Read the full disclosure By Mavis Butterfield on April 25, 2014 · 27 Comments I recently got a question from a reader who wanted to hatch some of his chickens eggs. He has 8 chickens and 1 rooster. He currently has collected about 20 eggs and is wanting to know if they are fertile, so that he can put them in an incubator. While I am not allowed to have roosters due to my neighborhood covenants, I have always kind of wondered if I would get a fertilized egg before I get rid of them. { We order chicks and usually get a rooster or two out of the bunch–we get rid of the rooster pretty soon after we know that it is in fact a rooster, though. } So, first a little talk about the birds and the bees {only, in this case, it really only involves two birds}. In order for an egg to become fertilized, the rooster and the hen have to have mated prior to the formation of the egg. If this happens, the hen will lay a fertilized egg. This probably goes without saying, but if you don’t have a rooster, you will not have any fertilized eggs…ever."

"text": "\"How Many Pounds of Food Does a Laying Hen Eat a Day? By Jen Davis Before you decide to purchase chickens and begin your own backyard chicken operation, it is important for you to understand how much feed laying hens need to stay healthy. Feeding your chickens a healthy and nutritionally balanced diet is a daily part of caring for them. Hens who do not receive enough feed will not be healthy or lay eggs on a regular basis. Feed Per Day On average, a laying hen will require approximately 1/4 to 1/3 of a pound of feed every day, or roughly 1.5 pounds of feed per week according to Nutrena Feeds. At this rate of consumption, every hen you have will require slightly less than 10 pounds of feed each month, regardless of whether or not she is actively producing any eggs. Hens who are producing eggs may require slightly more grain than those who are not. Free Range Hens Hens who have access to the outdoors will find some of their own food, selecting choice bugs, seeds, grasses and various bits of nature to supplement their diets. These hens are considered to be free range hens. Such hens will not eat as much commercial feed as they would if they were not allowed outdoors."

Fresh eggs are actually quite different from store-bought eggs in a number of ways. Not only are they better for you nutritionally, particularly if the hens are free range (and I mean truly free to roam the land), but fresh eggs have a few other aspects that one should keep in mind before getting a flock of your own. Free Range Yolks Are Darker and Tastier Depending on how much the hens have been able to free range, the yolk can be considerably darker than we’re used to seeing from store bought eggs. I remember the first time I cracked one of our home grown eggs. I was shocked by a dark orange yolk- very different from the pale yellow I was used to from conventional eggs. I was almost afraid to eat it. Was it safe? Of course, that darker shade is only evidence of a healthy diet of grass and bugs, and is not only perfectly safe to eat, but is much tastier and nutritious than those other anemic versions.

These stages begin at approximately 7 weeks of gestation and extend to 2 years of age ( 4 ). On imaging, abnormal cortical development can manifest as delayed appearance of sulcation, a thin and irregular cortical mantle, abnormal sulci and gyri, and a wide opening of isolated sulci ( 5 ). Table 8.3 CORTICAL DEVELOPMENT STAGES AND ASSOCIATED MALFORMATIONSAnomalies of Dorsal Prosencephalon Development The cerebral commissures are bundles of axons that cross the midline and connect the two cerebral hemispheres. They include the anterior commissure, the hippocampal commissure, and the largest commissure, the corpus callosum ( 3 ). Abnormalities of the commissures, specifically involving the corpus callosum, are among the most common congenital malformations with a reported prevalence of 0.02% to 0.5% in the general population and 2% to 3% in patients with intellectual disability ( 6 ). Patients with corpus callosum agenesis can present with a spectrum of clinical abnormalities including seizures, developmental delay, mental retardation, visual problems, and behavioral and psychiatric disorders ( 3, 7 ). They may also be discovered incidentally in asymptomatic individuals with normal development or a history thereof, imaged for unrelated reasons. The formation of the corpus callosum occurs during a critical period of gestation at 8 to 20 weeks corresponding to the time of neuronal migration in the forebrain and formation of the cerebrum and cerebellum ( 3 ). As a result, anomalies of the corpus callosum are rarely isolated and often are seen in association with other congenital malformations such as Dandy-Walker malformation, Chiari II malformation, and malformations of sulcation and cortical development ( 3, 8 ), which should be carefully ruled out when interpreting the imaging study."

"text": "Utopia Definition of Utopia The literary term utopia denotes an illusionary place that projects the notion of a perfect society to the reader. Here, the “perfect society” refers to ideal conditions achieved within the material world, as opposed to the expected idealism of afterlife in Christianity or other religions. Further, the citizens presiding in such utopias are bearers of a perfect moral code, or at the least, every violator of the moral code is harshly punished. A utopian society is one where all social evils have been cured. Utopia and Heterotopia An important distinction to be appreciated is that between an imaginary utopia and a live heterotopia. However, the terms should not be treated as opposites of one another. They denote a midway experience, with instances that are both real and unreal. Most of the examples that Foucault provides of heterotopias include several utopian aspects. However, the relationship between these two notions has tended to be ignored in the interpretation of heterotopia. Description of Utopian Literature A piece of writing that concerns itself with the description of a perfect society in the physical world, as opposed to the perfection of afterlife, is considered to be utopian literature."

Classified as a defect of the neural tube (ie, the embryonic structure that develops into the spinal cord and brain), it was recognized as long as 4000 years ago. The term myelodysplasia has been used as a synonym for spina bifida. ( See Pathophysiology and Etiology. ) Neural tube defects have a range of presentations, from stillbirth to incidental radiographic findings of spina bifida occulta. Myelomeningocele, a form of spina bifida, is visible at birth (see the images below).

Although excellent seizure outcomes are expected following surgical resection of focal, benign lesions, reports in pediatric epilepsy series suggest that this may not be the case with DNETs, which may exhibit complex and often multifocal epileptogenesis. We report the characteristics and surgical outcome of an adult- and childhood-onset cohort with this condition. Methods Retrospective cohort of 23 patients seen at two major epilepsy centers, with localization-related epilepsy associated with histopathologically demonstrated DNETs. We assessed clinical, electrographic and surgical outcome features in patients with adult- and childhood-onset epilepsy. We were particularly interested in the level of congruence of EEG and MRI data and the need for intracranial recordings. We evaluated seizure outcomes at last follow-up. Results The mean age was 33.3 years (range: 5–56 years). Ten patients had adult-onset epilepsy. Thirteen patients (57%) had simple partial, 21 (91%) had complex partial, 16 (70%) had secondarily generalized seizures and 5 patients had only simple partial seizures."

Cephalic is a term that means \"\"head\"\" or \"\"head end of the body.\"\" Congenital means the disorder is present at, and usually before, birth. Although there are many congenital developmental disorders, this fact sheet briefly describes only cephalic conditions."

Go to: Abstract Objective This manuscript reviews congenital anomalies and imaging findings associated with non-visualisation of the cavum septi pellucidi (CSP) found on prenatal sonogram. Background Observation of a normal cavum septi pellucidi (CSP) is an important landmark in the second and third trimester prenatal ultrasound evaluation of the fetal brain, and its visualisation provides reassurance of normal central forebrain development. Non-visualisation of the CSP is a prenatal sonographic finding, which in most cases is associated with neuroanatomical anomalies that include agenesis of the corpus callosum, schizencephaly, septo-optic dysplasia, holoprosencephaly, chronic hydrocephalus and acquired fetal brain injury. Isolated septal deficiency, a rare but controversial entity, is considered a variant of normal. Common pitfalls in the sonographic evaluation of CSP include columns of the fornix that mimic CSP, and prominent cavum vergae that can simulate non-visualisation of the CSP."

"text": "\"Heterotopia is a concept introduced by Michel Foucault in his 1966 book \"\"Les mots et les choses\"\" to describe the manner in which defined spaces which surround the subject in social existence can reduce his autonomy and even his sense of identity. Accordin g to Foucaul t a heterotopia is the m anner in which society and culture, having power on the one hand and the interest of realizing this power on the other, define the subject through his differentiation from general society. Initially heterotopia was uses by Foucault to describe a non-real verbal space and he later expanded to term to refer to a physical as well as non-physical space. People differed from the public sphere can be seen as subject, members of the social structure and as having free will, but at the same time they are subjects of a culture which examines, labels and constructs them as socially adapted entities. The heterotopia breaks apart the subject through his reconstitution, his \"\"amendment\"\" and \"\"proper\"\" disciplining. Foucault argues the prisons, mental institutions and even schools are such types of heterotopias. This is because such sites are separated from their surroundings, control movement in and out of them and inside of them and thus these heterotopias are able to control them. According to Foucault, heterotopias are almost invisible and perceived as natural by members of a society, but they are nevertheless measures of disciplining, controlling and punishing of the different and deviant. In other words, heterotopias are seen as natural, necessary and harmless when in fact they are a way for society to regulate out behavior. Foucault believes that the formation of heterotopias is a critical process in the formation of social life."

A recent study has suggested a possible association with gastric fundal gland polyps (FGPs). In this review of 37 patients with histologically confirmed DGH, the background to our present understanding of the DGH lesion is reviewed, the clinical and pathological associations of the condition in our cohort are identified, and the histological and immunohistochemical features of the DGH lesion are described. An association with the presence of FGPs is again demonstrated, whereas an inverse relationship with Helicobacter pylori is also shown. Immunohistochemical staining demonstrates that the fundic-type glands of DGH express the proton pump antigen (H + K + ATPase), whereas the overlying surface mucosa expresses the mucin profile of normal gastric-type mucosa (mucin-5AC positive, mucin-2 negative). DGH may represent a further component of the iatrogenic hypergastrinemia-related hypothesis for FGP development, although further study is required to confirm this. Previous article Next article Keywords Duodenal gastric heterotopia Fundic gland polyps Hypergastrinemia Immunohistochemistry1. Introduction The unexpected detection of ectopic gastric fundic-type mucosa within the duodenum has been described for over 80 years [1]. This duodenal gastric heterotopia (DGH) was initially assumed to be congenital in origin, one of a variety of congenital heterotopias which occur along the length of the gastrointestinal tract. It was initially defined as a nodule of “specialized” oxyntic glands extending through the whole thickness of the duodenal mucosa, with overlying gastric-foveolar-type mucosa, and was considered a separate entity to “gastric metaplasia,” a reactive condition characterized by the development of a gastric, foveolar-type surface lining on the duodenal mucosa in response to peptic injury, and without the development of specialized fundic-type glands. In the 1970s, the concept that specialized gastric glands may develop within the duodenum as a reactive rather than congenital phenomenon began to emerge, proposed by Hoedemaeker [2] and reiterated by Johansen and Hansen [3]. Lessells and Martin [4] proposed the subdivision of the entity of DGH into congenital and reactive subtypes, the latter characterized by the haphazard arrangement of scattered foci of fundic-type glands within the duodenal mucosa."

Saleem Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.jare.2013.06.001 Get rights and content Open Access funded by Ministry of Science & Technology, Egypt Under a Creative Commons license Abstract MRI has been increasingly used for detailed visualization of the fetus in utero as well as pregnancy structures. Yet, the familiarity of radiologists and clinicians with fetal MRI is still limited. This article provides a practical approach to fetal MR imaging. Fetal MRI is an interactive scanning of the moving fetus owed to the use of fast sequences. Single-shot fast spin-echo (SSFSE) T2-weighted imaging is a standard sequence. T1-weighted sequences are primarily used to demonstrate fat, calcification and hemorrhage. Balanced steady-state free-precession (SSFP), are beneficial in demonstrating fetal structures as the heart and vessels. Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), MR spectroscopy (MRS), and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) have potential applications in fetal imaging. Knowing the developing fetal MR anatomy is essential to detect abnormalities. MR evaluation of the developing fetal brain should include recognition of the multilayered-appearance of the cerebral parenchyma, knowledge of the timing of sulci appearance, myelination and changes in ventricular size."

"text": "Discussion: Lipoma, cns, A rare congenital lesion characterized by the presence of fatty deposits in inappropriate places in the central nervous system. The most common sites are along the midline of the brain (corpus callosum, quadrigeminal cistern) or of the spine and spinal cord. The embryological derangement that leads to the formation of lipomas is still debated; lipomas are variously considered to be the result of mesodermal inclusion due to dysraphism, hyperplasia of normal leptomeningeal fat cells, heterotopia of displaced dermal anlage or derivatives from the embryological meninx primitiva. This last hypothesis is seen nowadays as the most probable. Intracranial lipomas may present as distinct masses of different size or as curvilinear shaped structures around the corpus callosum. Sometimes callosal lipomas may have intraventricular components within the choroid plexuses. The most common sites for intracranial lipomas are around the corpus callosum, in the quadrigeminal cistern, hypothalamic-suprasellar, the cerebellopontine angles. Intracranial lipomas are usually asymptomatic and an occasional finding. They are, however, frequently associated with more severe congenital anomalies like corpus callosum agenesis, and may present with seizures, headache and behavioural disturbances. CT clearly shows markedly hypodense structures in the characteristic sites."

The 3 brain vesicles (prosencephalon or forebrain, mesencephalon or midbrain, and rhombencephalon or hindbrain) form around the end of the first gestational month. The neural canal dilates within the prosencephalon, leading to the formation of the lateral ventricles and third ventricle. The cavity of the mesencephalon forms the cerebral aqueduct. The dilation of the neural canal within the rhombencephalon forms the fourth ventricle."

These families of small guanine-nucleotide-binding (G) proteins are well suited to regulate membrane trafficking processes since their nucleotide state determines their conformation and the capacity to bind to a multitude of effectors, which mediate their functions. In recent years, several inherited diseases have been associated with mutations in genes encoding proteins belonging to these two families or in proteins that regulate their GTP-binding cycle. The genetic diseases that are caused by defects in Rabs, Arfs or their regulatory proteins are heterogeneous and display diverse symptoms. However, these diseases mainly affect two types of subcellular compartments, namely lysosome-related organelles and cilia. Also, several of these diseases affect the nervous system. Thus, the study of these diseases represents an opportunity to understand their etiology and the molecular mechanisms involved, as well as to develop novel therapeutic strategies. Intracellular trafficking pathways ensure the communication between membrane-bound compartments of eukaryotic cells. Cargo is transported in vesicular carriers between these compartments in a regulated manner, enabling their differential protein and lipid composition. The intracellular trafficking pathways can be divided in two main routes: an outbound secretory route from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the plasma membrane, through the Golgi apparatus; and the endocytic pathway, which transports cargo from the plasma membrane to lysosomes, through early (or sorting) and late endosomes (Figure 1 )."

"text": "\"It is important to consider the social conditions of persons with disabilities who choose to abuse drugs. Hirschi's social control theory may illuminate the sociology of addiction for persons with disabilities. The purpose of this article is to examine the meaning of Hirschi's theoretical thesis for persons with disabilities, with particular attention given to the concepts of attachment, commitment, involvement, and beliefs. Specific Implications for rehabilitation counseling practice and research will be provided. The rehabilitation literature is replete with studies which suggest a high incidence of substance abuse among persons with disabilities. For example, Stude (1990) estimated that the rate of drug abuse among rehabilitation clients may be as high as 40%. Further evidence exist which suggests that persons with disabilities are twice as likely as the general population to abuse substances (News in Mental Health Nursing, 1993). In response to the reports of prevalence, several authors have emphasized the need to develop services to treat persons with disabilities who abuse drugs (Frieden, 1990; Perez & Pilsecker, 1989). Despite the importance of estimating prevalence and establishing treatment modalities, greater understanding of the psychological and sociological factors which motivate persons with disabilities to abuse substances is needed. Few studies have offered explanations for the conditions which lead to the abuse of substances among persons with disabilities."

"text": "\"SOCIAL BELONGINGTHE DIMENSIONS OF HUMAN INVOLVEMENTIt is necessary to distinguish four different dimensions or states in the involvement of individuals in the context of human relations: territorial location, ecological participation, social belonging, and cultural conformity (Pollini 1990) (Figure 1). Territorial location, as Weber showed in his famous sociological analysis of the medieval European city (Weber 1921) does not involve any form of social relation among the individuals of a population in a particular territorial area. This dimension was subsequently defined by Parsons as one of the three primary relational criteria, with the other two being biological position and temporal location (Parsons 1959, pp. 89–96). Unlike territorial location, ecological participation involves some sort of reciprocal relationality among the individual members of a human population, whether settled in the same territorial area or not. To use the terminology of human and social ecology in reference to nonsymbolic social relations, recalling Mead's well-known distinction (Mead 1934), ecological participation involves a specific form of interdependence among individuals (\"\"symbiosis\"\") (Park 1936, 1939) that is distinctly different from social interaction (Quinn 1939). For Parsons, the ecological system is \"\"a state of mutually oriented interdependence of a plurality of actors who are not integrated by bonds of solidarity to form a collectivity but who are objects to one another\"\" (1959, p. 93). Thus, instrumentally, the customers of a commercial firm, the participants in a market, and the antagonists in a struggle, and expressively, a network of purely personal friendships and the inhabitants of a neighborhood or district in a modern metropolis are paradigmatic examples of the dimension of participation in networks of ecological interaction or in purely ecological systems. Parsons defined the state of ecological participation as a secondary relational criterion. Social belonging refers to the state in which an individual, by assuming a role, is characterized by inclusion in the social collectivity, which is exclusively a Gemeinschaft, according to Weber (Weber 1922, 136), and which is a Gemeinschaft (an organization or association), according to Parsons (Parsons 1959, p. 100)."

In religious and theological circles there has not been agreement on precisely what is to be understood by the biblical term. It is used variously in biblical contexts. In political situations, it can be translated treaty; in a social setting, it means a lifelong friendship agreement; or it can refer to a marriage. The biblical words most often translated \"\"covenant\"\" are berit [ tyir. B] in the Old Testament (appearing about 280 times) and diatheke [ diaqhvkh] in the New Testament (at least 33 times).

It is the purview of sociologists, psychologists, psychiatrists, and criminologists to study how these norms are created, how they change over time and how they are enforced. Deviance as a violation of social norms Norms are rules and expectations by which members of society are guided. They are not necessarily moral, or even grounded in morality; in fact, they are just as often pragmatic and, paradoxically, irrational. ( A great many of what we call manners, having no logical grounds, would make for good examples here.) Norms are rules of conduct, not neutral or universal, but ever changing; shifting as society shifts; mutable, emergent, loose, reflective of inherent biases and interests, and highly selfish and one-sided. They vary from class to class, and in the generational \"\"gap.\"\" They are, in other words, contextual. Deviance can be described as a violation of these norms . Deviance is a failure to conform to culturally reinforced norms."

"text": "\"Theoretical perspectives on juvenile delinquency: root causes and control. Link/Page Citation Although progress has been made in past decades, the plight of youths in contemporary American society is still one of this country's most ominous dilemmas, conspicuously different from the decadence that their predecessors faced a century ago. Today, American youths experience violence, both as victims and perpetrators, at alarming rates. At the same time, authorities are quick to recommend retribution--in the form of punishment--in order to control the trends in juvenile offending. In some cases, adolescents charged with offenses are even transferred from juvenile courts to adult criminal courts or to other major diversionary systems, even as study after study shows that incarcerating youths in adult facilities may lead to further victimization and exposure to more serious criminal careers. ( 1) Interestingly, scholars have noted that most chronic juvenile offenders start their delinquent careers before the age of 12, (2) that murder rates for American teens are six times higher in the United States than in Canada, (3) and that females are more likely than males to be murdered by a friendly associate. ( 4) Still, according to the America's Children report, (5) violent crime offending rates for young people between the ages of 12 and 17 have decreased by 67 percent since 1993. Indeed, Howard Snyder (6) aptly used data from the FBI's Uniform Crime Report and found that adolescents arrested in 2000 constituted only about 12 percent of all arrests for violent crimes that were cleared by the police. More specifically, in 2000, they accounted for 5 percent of those arrested for homicide, 12 percent for forcible rapes, 12 percent for aggravated assaults and 12 percent for robberies. In effect, the percentage of juveniles arrested in 2000 was the lowest since 1988, and that trend has continued into the 21st century."

"text": "Science, Tech, Math ›Social Sciences Sociological Explanations of Deviant Behavior A Look at Four Different Theories Share Flipboard Email Print Getty Images / AZemdegaby Ashley Crossman Updated January 13, 2018Deviant behavior is any behavior that is contrary to the dominant norms of society. There are many different theories that explain how behavior comes to be classified as deviant and why people engage in it, including biological explanations, psychological explanations, and sociological explanations. Here we review four of the major sociological explanations for deviant behavior. Structural Strain Theory American sociologist Robert K. Merton developed structural strain theory as an extension of the functionalist perspective on deviance. This theory traces the origins of deviance to the tensions that are caused by the gap between cultural goals and the means people have available to achieve those goals. According to this theory, societies are composed of both culture and social structure. Culture establishes goals for people in society while social structure provides (or fails to provide) the means for people to achieve those goals. In a well-integrated society, people use accepted and appropriate means to achieve the goals that society establishes. In this case, the goals and the means of the society are in balance. It is when the goals and means are not in balance with each other that deviance is likely to occur."

D. and LL. M. In this lesson, we'll review the definition of social control, analyze social control theory and go over some relevant examples which will help us gain a thorough understanding of the theory as it relates to criminology. Definition of Social Control Janet Jackson once sang 'Got my own mind, I want to make my own decisions; When it has to do with my life, I wanna be the one in control.' The song is an anthem for being in control of one's own life and decisions, which is similar to the idea behind social control theory. Social control theory is used to help us understand and reduce levels of criminal activity. It's based upon the idea that an individual's basic belief system, values, morals, commitments and relationships foster a lawful environment. Individuals who have these beliefs and commitments often have a level of self-control over their actions or are, as Janet Jackson would say, 'in control' of their lives - they are accordingly prepped to stay on the right side of the law. Furthermore, social control theory examines how society influences criminal behavior. It also underscores the idea that when individuals are involved and in touch with their community, they are less likely to commit criminal acts. Social Control Theory Social control theory was developed by Travis Hirschi in 1969."

Figure two - Homicide rates in US and England 1900-2000After a three-decade free fall that spanned the Great Depression, World War II, and the Cold War, Americans multiplied their homicide rate by more than two and a half, from a low of 4.0 in 1957 to a high of 10.2 in 1980 (U. S. Bureau of Statistics; Fox and Zawitz: 2007). The upsurge included every other category of major crime as well, including rape, assault, robbery, and theft, and lasted (with ups and downs) for three decades. The cities got particularly dangerous, especially New York, which became a symbol of the new criminality. Though the surge in violence affected all the races and both genders, it was most dramatic among black men, whose annual homicide rate had shot up by the mid-1980s to 72 per 100,000. The flood of violence from the 1960s through the 1980s reshaped American culture, the political scene, and everyday life.

"text": "\"DEVIANCEThe term \"\"deviance\"\" usually refers to some behavior that is inconsistent with standards of acceptable conduct prevailing in a given social group, although the term has also been used to designate personal conditions, ideas, or statuses that are stigmatized or disreputable. Social scientists disagree, about a precise definition of deviance because they use different approaches in trying to determine exactly what the standards of conduct or the acceptable statuses and conditions are in a given group (Gibbs, 1981). At least five ways of conceptualizing deviance are used. Conceptualizations of deviance The statistical approach. One way of defining standards of conduct and deviance from them is to observe how people in a particular group actually behave (Wilkins, 1964). Accordingly, if a large proportion of people in a group smoke cigarettes, smoking is \"\"normal\"\" while failure to smoke would be atypical, or deviant. With a \"\"statistical\"\" perspective, sky diving, eating snails, and murder are all deviant in the United States since they are all unusual. On the other hand, highway speeding, \"\"fudging\"\" on one's income tax, and pilfering small items from employers are all conforming behaviors since they are currently committed by a fairly large proportion, if not a majority, of the population. A statistical approach rests on a common observation: many people assume that something that \"\"everybody does\"\" cannot be in violation of conduct standards. Indeed, a frequent justification (or rationalization) for conduct that is being threatened with sanctions is to claim that everybody else or at least most others do it."

"text": "Flag What kinds of foods do Hispanics eat? Answer by Jdogwhisper19 Confidence votes 8Hispanics (like me) eat most of the foods that dumb Americans eat, like cheeseburger's, meat, vegetables, and stuff like that. We have one exception though.... when we're not eating out, we like to cook our culture's food. Me I'm straight from Spain, so in my house we eat, Paella, a Valencian rice dish that can include many ingredient's (my fave is clams, and squid) Other that Paella, I can also tell you about my other favorite Hispanic food. Arroz con Polo. Not as good as Paella, but really an awesome tasting food. It is made usually with browned chicken cooked with rice, onions, garlic, and tomatoes. On the desert menu.... Arroz con Leche- Probaly reffered to as Rice Pudding in America, but Arroz Con Leche is so much sweeter, and richer that normal rice pudding. I wanto tell you more but my fingers are getting tired.. consult me as jdogwhisper19 on twitter kk? Hasta luego1 person found this useful Was this answer useful?"

This research brief is available on the Internet at:http://aspe.hhs.gov/health/reports/child_obesity/index.cfm Overweight and obesity in children are significant public health problems in the United States. The number of adolescents who are overweight has tripled since 1980 and the prevalence among younger children has more than doubled. According to the 1999-2002 NHANES survey, 16 percent of children age 6-19 years are overweight (see Figure 1). 1,2,3 Not only have the rates of overweight increased, but the heaviest children in a recent NHANES survey were markedly heavier than those in previous surveys.

This cuisine made its way across the Texas and California borders in the 1800s and Americans have fallen in love with it's spices and flavors. Americans are usually most familiar with the \"\"Tex Mex\"\" variety. This includes refried beans, Mexican rice, tortillas, burritos, enchiladas and nachos. However, authentic Mexican food includes many more dishes and flavors than what is found in the average fast food restaurant. It is a combination of the Spanish cuisine brought in by the conquistadors, mixed with the native foods of the Mayans and Aztecs, as well as of the Apache and Mojave tribes. It is, in many ways, a \"\"creole\"\" cuisine, since it borrows from many cultures. The main ingredients in Mexican food often depend on where one is in the country. If a traveler is near the coast, seafood is a dominant ingredient. Beef and chicken are always popular meats, as is pork and goat."

"text": "Download Report In 2015, more than 1 in 6 U. S. children (18 percent) lived in households that were food-insecure at some point during the year, and 0.7 percent experienced the most severe level of need, where food intake is reduced and regular eating patterns are disrupted. [ 1]Importance Inadequate food intake in children is associated with a number of serious health, behavior, and cognitive deficits. Children who are food-insecure are in poorer health and are more likely to be developmentally at-risk than non-food-insecure children, according to parental reports. [ 2], [3] Infants who experience food insecurity are more likely to have insecure attachment relationships, and to perform more poorly on tests of cognitive development. [ 4] Children in food-insecure households have more stomach aches, frequent headaches, and colds than children who are in food-secure households. Higher rates of hospitalization, iron deficiency anemia, and chronic health conditions are reported among food-insecure children. [ 5]Studies also report that food insecurity is associated with higher rates of behavioral problems in 3-year-olds; in school-aged children, psychosocial deficits, as well as higher anxiety and depression; and, in adolescents, higher rates of depressive disorder and suicidal symptoms. Food-insecure children show smaller gains in math and reading achievement between kindergarten and third grade, and, among those ages 6 to 11, a higher likelihood of repeating a grade. [ 6] Food insecurity, particularly when experienced in the earliest primary grades, also has a significant detrimental effect on non-cognitive classroom measures, such as interpersonal skills, self-control, and the group of competencies (including attentiveness, persistence, and flexibility) termed “approaches to learning.” [ 7]Counter-intuitively, child food-insecurity is also associated with a greater risk for being overweight.

"text": "\"home / medterms medical dictionary a-z list / mortality, infant definition Medical Definition of Mortality, infant Mortality, infant: The death of an infant before his or her first birthday. The infant mortality rate is, by definition, the number of children dying under a year of age divided by the number of live births that year. The infant mortality rate is also called the infant death rate. The infant mortality rate is an important measure of the well-being of infants, children, and pregnant women because it is associated with a variety of factors, such as maternal health, quality and access to medical care, socioeconomic conditions, and public health practices. In the United States, about two-thirds of infant deaths occur in the first month after birth and are due mostly to health problems of the infant or the pregnancy, such as preterm delivery or birth defects. About one-third of infant deaths occur after the first month and are influenced greatly by social or environmental factors, such as exposure to cigarette smoke or problems with access to health care. The infant mortality rate in the US, which was 12.5 per 1,000 live births in 1980, fell to 9.2 per 1,000 live births in 1990. However, in 1999 it was reported that \"\"Over the past 8 years, the death rate among black infants has remained nearly 2.5 times that among white infants.\"\" ( Pediatrics 104: 1229-1246, 1999. ) The US Government Child Stats Health Indicators include the following additional information about the infant mortality rate: The 1997 infant mortality rate for the United States, according to preliminary data, was 7.1 deaths per 1,000 births, substantially below the 1983 rate of 10.9."

"text": "< Home < Risk Factors Stomach Cancer What is Stomach Cancer? Stomach (gastric) cancer starts in the stomach, a sack-like organ that holds food and begins the digestion process. Cancer can start in any part of the stomach. The stomach has five layers. As cancer grows deeper into the layers, the prognosis for the patient gets worse. Starting from the inside, the innermost layer is called the mucosa. Next is a supporting layer called the submucosa which is surrounded by the muscularis, a layer of muscle that moves and mixes the stomach contents. The next two layers, the subserosa and the serosa (the outermost) layer, act as wrapping for the stomach. Stomach cancer usually starts in the mucosa (adenocarcinoma). Facts: According to the Illinois State Cancer Registry, in 2008, about 990 new cases of stomach cancer will be diagnosed in Illinois."

"text": "Girls growth chart and average weight for girls April 9, 2018 By Dr. Halls Girls don’t just simply decide to hate their bodies, we teach them to. Many girls, especially in the teenage years, worry about their weight. This statement is based on sound, scientific research, and with the non-stop digital stream promoting images of stick-thin models, it is hardly surprising. In fact, one large UK research study conducted by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) examined 7,000 adolescents aged 13 years old. Shockingly, the study found that the following feelings and behaviors were common in girls at just 13 years old :-“ … extreme levels of fear of weight gain, avoidance of fattening foods,and distress about weight and shape”Interestingly, for these young people, concerns about weight and size, binge eating and weight control behaviors, such as avoiding fatty foods and dieting, actually predicted a higher Body Mass Index (BMI) two years later. Could these early preoccupations with body image and weight be an early predictor for obesity and an endless round of yo-yo dieting and weight gain in adulthood? I’ll do statistics and I will even do algebra, but graphing is where I draw the line!What is the Average weight for Girls? These Growth Chart for girls show the average weight for girls according to their age. The aim of this post is to show girls the average weight using realistic and scientific information. This weight chart should serve to reassure both parents and girls alike."

"text": "Puberty typically isn’t a favorite memory for any of us. During that angst-ridden ride between childhood and adulthood, nearly everyone’s best goal is simply to fit in. That’s even tougher when you’re only in second grade. But a significant percentage of girls begin breast development — an indicator of puberty — before learning their multiplication tables. According to several headline-grabbing studies, both here and in Europe, a dramatically greater number of girls start to develop breasts at a younger age than happened 10 to 30 years ago. By contrast, the age at which they get their first periods has only declined by a few months and, on average, still occurs, between the ages of 12 and 13. These findings, though still debated by some endocrinologists, have fueled concern that childhood for girls is shrinking, while the duration of puberty is expanding. The Elusive Why Exactly why this may be occurring still is clinically elusive. Several possibilities have been identified, including an increase in obesity, low birth weight, stress and the prevalence of estrogen-like hormone- disrupting chemicals, such as bisphenol A, or BPA. BPA is used in hard plastics and in July was banned for use in baby bottles and sippy cups by the Food and Drug Administration."

Latino refers more exclusively to persons or communities of Latin American origin. While there is a significant overlap between the groups, Brazilians are a good example of Latinos who are not Hispanic. Both terms were meant to refer to ethnicity, not race; however, in the U.

The hormone insulin helps move the sugar from your blood into your cells, which are where the sugar is used for energy. In type 2 diabetes, your body’s cells aren’t able to respond to insulin as well as they should. In later stages of the disease your body may also not produce enough insulin. Uncontrolled type 2 diabetes can lead to chronically high blood sugar levels, causing several symptoms and potentially leading to serious complications. Symptoms Symptoms of type 2 diabetes In type 2 diabetes your body isn’t able to effectively use insulin to bring glucose into your cells. This causes your body to rely on alternative energy sources in your tissues, muscles, and organs. This is a chain reaction that can cause a variety of symptoms. Type 2 diabetes can develop slowly.

Mark Schatzker hits the road—and some stunning resorts around Mexico City—to investigate the whole enchilada A chef named Rosita has one of the most popular food stands at the Mercado Carmen. Here, one of her concoctions with panela cheese, mushrooms, and squash blossoms. Photographs by Peden & Munk There is a man selling oro mangoes at the farmers’ market in Malinalco who cuts them up into small, uneven chunks and serves them in a disposable cup, and I strongly suggest you buy one because it will be the best mango to ever pass your lips—a record that will stand for, oh, a minute. The oro (“gold”) is just a workaday mango, the man will tell you, about as good as a petacon (“butt cheek”), but nowhere near as good as the king of all mangoes, the mighty manila, a golden lobe of tropical acid-sweet balance that arrives peeled and gamely impaled on a wooden stick and dusted with chili powder. I hope you’re hungry. Because there are also pig’s-brain quesadillas; pancita, a deeply savory beef broth with chunks of tripe finished with fresh oregano and a squeeze of lime juice; tacos filled with pig’s feet cured in vinegar; woven baskets heaped with just-baked bread; quesadillas stuffed with squash blossoms; heirloom tomatoes (which, around here, aren’t considered heirloom yet); free samples of chicozapote, a red-fleshed fruit with a flavor somewhere between nutmeg and cinnamon; unpasteurized cow’s milk cheese; tamales; enchiladas; fresh-squeezed orange juice; and locally grown, locally roasted coffee beans.

This claim serves to inform consumers about a food choice that can help lower blood cholesterol, a major risk factor for heart disease. According to the National Vital Statistics Report of 2005 for the Center for Disease Control, heart disease is the leading cause of death for American Indians and Alaska Natives, blacks, whites and Hispanics (link1). However, studies among people with and without heart disease have shown that lowering high blood cholesterol levels can reduce the risk of dying of heart disease and reduce the risk of developing heart disease, respectively. According to the Cheerios website, Cheerios is the only leading cold cereal that is known to have effects on lowering cholesterol in addition to a low fat diet ( link 2). General Mills, the corporation that produces Cheerios, claims state that eating three cups of Cheerios, as part of a diet low in saturated fat, is effective in reducing elevated cholesterol levels. However, many people have begun to question exactly how much of a protective effect do you really see when assessing the results of Cheerios on lowering cholesterol. Should Cheerios really be a necessity in the diets of those who have high cholesterol? Are there other alternatives that may produce more substantial effects? Terminology When addressing this topic, it is first important to define some basic terms used in the literature: Hypercholesterolemia - condition characterized by extremely high blood cholesterol levels ( link 3)."

Last week the US Census Bureau issued figures showing that non-hispanic whites made up 49.8 per cent of the population of California. Anglo-Saxon whites are already a minority in Hawaii and the District of Columbia. Now they are an ethnic minority in the country's most populous state, the one most usually identified with the American dream. ' It's my hope we can all see our state's diversity as a cause for celebration and not consternation,' said California's lieutenant governor, Cruz Bustamente, a Latino. Robert Newby, a white shop-owner who has lived in Los Angeles for 40 years, echoed his optimism: 'This confirms what most of us have thought for years. I am happy for there to be more immigrants - by and large they work harder and have more money to spend. ' As recently as 1970, eight out of 10 Californians were white. Fuelled by immigration at its highest rate since the start of the last century, and higher fertility rates, the Asian and Latino populations of California have risen by almost a third since 1990."

"text": "Share0Share0Tweet0+10Share Homicide Detective Defined Homicide Detective Defined Share What is a homicide detective? A homicide detective is a member of law enforcement that coordinates murder investigations. These detectives work with a team of forensic experts to determine cause of death and indentify potential suspects. Becoming a homicide detective usually requires an advanced degree and several years of experience working in the police department. Contrary to media perceptions, it is also a very tedious and painstaking job that requires critical analysis and attention to minute details. How does one become a homicide detective? A criminal justice degree is essential for candidates wishing to pursue a career as a detective. In most jurisdictions, becoming a detective requires a certain amount of years as a police officer before being offered a promotion. Additionally, there are additional examinations required to prove competency for the position. Even then, most detectives will start in less complex divisions of the department such as vice or domestic violence before being promoted to homicide detective."

"text": "Home » College What Classes Should I Take in High School to Become a Homicide Detective? By Laura Fletcher Homicide detectives have important careers often dramatized in television shows. Homicide detectives help communities to become safer and more secure by finding the evidence to apprehend murderers. A college degree is not required to enter this profession, but some college or an associate's or bachelor's degree is highly preferred, and high school students can take certain courses that will better prepare them to be detectives. Keep in mind that in order to become a police detective, you must first pass an academic test to enter the police academy, and then you must be promoted from the rank of police officer. English and Social Science Homicide detectives have to communicate with lawyers, judges, reporters, community leaders, crime witnesses from many different backgrounds, criminal suspects, and the families of homicide victims on a regular basis. This requires excellent communication skills. Additionally, detectives must regularly write detailed reports that are used as evidence in court and must often testify in courtroom trials, some of which are televised. For this reason, the entrance exam to be a police officer has a heavy emphasis on writing. To be prepared, aspiring detectives should take eight semesters or more of English, including a course focused solely on writing and a course focused solely on speech."

Richard Powell, for his part was already well into long pants, and trying to break into solid, dramatic Film roles. Given the Studio System of the era, Powell found himself offered only musicals or musical comedies in his Film career. Whenever Powell would seek more dramatic roles, his studio heads would veto the project. Powell persisted, and lobbied hard for the male lead in the film noir classic, Double Indemnity (1944) but lost the role to Fred Mac Murray. But as if fated, Powell landed the role of Philip Marlowe in the other notable film noir classic of 1944, Murder, My Sweet. Largely on the strength of his critical and popular success in Murder, My Sweet, he persuaded F. W. Fitch, the sponsor of his long-running Fitch Bandwagon Radio variety series to give Powell a try at a detective mystery series for the 1945 Summer season of Fitch Bandwagon, retitled, Fitch Bandwagon Mysteries, then ultimately, Rogue's Gallery. Fitch Bandwagon Mysteries' Rogue's Gallery was an almost instant hit for Powell, and resulted in an eventual franchise of seven years of Rogue's Gallery, three years of which starred Dick Powell as Richard Rogue."

"text": "A homicide detective investigates murders and tries to solve many of the mysteries surrounding unexplained deaths. Most of these people work for police departments, though they can operate as independent contractors, too; the basic job description is usually about the same for both. The main goal is always to solve the case — that is, to identify what happened, how it happened, and who is responsible. Interviewing witnesses, collecting evidence, and puzzling through the facts are all important parts of the job. It sometimes happens, of course, that answers just can’t be found, but even in these cases, the detective’s work in building up a file and checking out all possible avenues of answers is very important. Investigative Work Conducting investigations is the bulk of any homicide detective’s work. This often starts at the scene of the crime, but it doesn’t have to. Some detectives work on cases that are years or decades old, which makes visiting the original scene difficult if not impossible. A lot of the work comes in terms of following clues, piecing together event sequences, and trying to nail down what, exactly, happened when the victim or victims died. Ad Interviews with witnesses, if there are any, can be a very important element, and the victim’s friends and acquaintances may also be questioned."

I hope to convey to the reader some sense of the sheer weight of over 100 discrepancies and unanswered questions. Also bear in mind that the number \"\"101\"\" is itself a modest number. As a practical matter, I was forced to omit dozens of striking anomalies. As you read this long list, consider that Vince Foster's death was almost immediately labeled a suicide by the U. S. Park Police. Normal procedure in the case of a violent death is to treat it as a homicide until all doubts are resolved. Despite this, a homicide investigation was never launched. Even before the death scene or the body had been inspected, a suicide confirmation process was under way. In her sworn Senate testimony, senior Park Police officer Cheryl Braun said, \"\"We made that determination [of suicide] prior to going up and looking at the body.\"\""

The batterer often accompanies the patient to the ED, may hover and refuse to leave the patient alone, and may insist on answering questions for the patient. These factors reinforce the necessity for taking the history in private. Inform the patient of any limits to confidentiality imposed by mandatory reporting requirements for domestic violence and child abuse. If a translator is necessary, he or she should not be a member of the patient's or suspected abuser's family. Simple questions asked in private may elicit previously unrecognized risks and histories of violence. Ask direct questions (eg, \"\"Has your partner ever punched or kicked you? \"\"), as opposed to asking if a person is battered or otherwise a victim of domestic violence. This is critical because the patient may not interpret what occurs as domestic violence. If questioning the family, do so with care, always remembering that the batterer may be among those queried."

Department of Justice’s annual estimate of killings considered cleared through arrest, but a little digging at Scripps News revealed it.

By Megan Garvey Times Staff Writer January 2, 2006At least 72 people were killed in Compton in 2005, the highest toll in a decade for a city that has ranked among the most dangerous in the nation for 30 years. The rise in homicides frightened residents who have long lived with high levels of gang violence but had seen a downturn in violent crime in recent years. In addition to those killed in Compton, at least nine more people were shot to death in unincorporated areas within a few blocks of the city boundary. Many residents have been frustrated over a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department response that they found surprisingly passive in the face of unrelenting violence. Compton ended 2005 with nearly as many homicides as there are sheriff’s deputies paid to patrol the city. Some residents have asked why city officials have not acted more forcefully. The oldest victim was the first, Reginald Humphries, 61, found bludgeoned to death Jan. 7 in his home on 138th Street."

Earning a degree in criminal justice can help you get hired for many different job opportunities within the criminal justice field. While police officers make up a large portion of the professionals working in law enforcement, there are many more career options that you may want to consider from FBI agent to computer forensic specialist. With the wide range of roles available, you can find a job that is a good fit for your unique interests, skills, talents, and salary expectations. This resource provides descriptions of 20 jobs that you can pursue with a degree in criminal justice. Probation Officer According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics the 2010 median wage for probation officers is $47,200 per year, with 18% job growth expected through 2020. Probation officers monitor parolees released from the corrections system to ensure that they abide by the terms of their probation while assisting parolees with adjusting to life after release using specialized treatment techniques. A probation officer is typically assigned a case load of parolees, with whom they interact at the parolees’ homes and places of work as well as at the office. 1 This gives probation officers the opportunity to make a positive difference in the lives of others. Those interested in the criminal justice system or social work may find a career as a probation officer to be very rewarding."

After four people were murdered in separate incidents in London on 10th July 2008, BBC correspondent Andy Tighe said \"\"To have four fatal stabbings in one day could be a statistical freak\"\". But could it? And on July 28th thelondonpaper had the front-page headline: “London’s murder count reaches 90”. Of course every single murder is a tragedy for those whom it affects, and it is little comfort to them what patterns we may detect in the figures. But for the benefit of the police service and broader society we may wish to consider whether these ‘shocking’ numbers in the media are evidence that things are really getting worse. Each year the London Metropolitan Police record around 170 homicides, and this has been stable for the last 5 years (‘homicide’ covers murder, manslaughter and infanticide, but here we will use ‘murder’ as an equivalent term). We will also focus on all murders, whatever the method of killing. Each of these murders is an individual crime that cannot be predicted. It may appear strange, but this very randomness means that the overall pattern of murders is in some ways quite predictable."

Let Us Help You What is Murder? Murder, or more accurately, Criminal Homicide, is the unlawful taking of the life of another. Most states have varying degrees of murder and manslaughter, such as premeditated (or first degree murder), or murder committed during the commission of another crime (sometimes called felony murder). Not all states have adopted the Model Penal Code to classify different types of murder. Nevertheless, it serves as the basis of the criminal codes of 2/3 of the states in the U. S. Murder The most serious type of criminal homicide is Murder. Murder is typically broken down further into several sub-categories; commonly first and second degree murder. First Degree Murder First degree murder is the most serious of all homicide charges, and applies to the intentional killing of a person after planning (or premeditation). It requires malice (evil intent) and forethought (planning). These cases are usually considered among the most heinous crimes and as such, the most severe punishments are reserved for them including life in prison or the death penalty."

And, How to Winterize a Top Bar Hive You might be wondering “How do bees keep warm in the Winter?”“Heater bees” face first in the comb When the temperature outside of the hive is higher than 18°C / 64°F, bees in the hive are normally dispersed within it. However, in the cold Winter climates, production of eggs and larva stop while the bees crowd tightly together into a cluster. Insulation by the tightly packed outer bees of the cluster reduces heat loss. The temperature of the cluster ranges as high as 20-35°C / 68°-95°F on the inside of the cluster to as low as 9-14°C / 48-57°F at the outside of the cluster. When temperatures outside of the hive reach below -10°C / 14°F, the bees near the middle of the cluster actively produce heat by shivering their flight muscles. So, what can you do to help your honey bees survive Winter? Choose a hive that is easy to winterize for cold winters!How to Winterize a Top Bar Hive in a Cold Climate Entrance Plugs. Each side of the hive has a group of three entrance holes, making a total of 12 holes in the hive. In the Fall, silicone stopperscan be used to close off the entrances on the three sides of the hive that are not being used as the main entrance in order to minimize the possibility of other bees or wasps robbing the hive of its honey stores."

The major groups of insect pollinators are the bees, moths, butterflies, flies, and beetles. Some of the common minor groups of insect pollinators are ants, wasps, thrips, and true bugs. Many native insect species are important pollinators of commercial food crops, especially the bees. About 25,000 species of bees are known throughout the world, and 2,000 species are native to the U.

Honey: You drink it in your tea and spread it on your bread, but what is honey, really? A thick, golden liquid produced by industrious bees, honey is made using the nectar of flowering plants and is saved inside the beehive for eating during times of scarcity. But how do bees make honey? Nectar — a sugary liquid — is extracted from flowers using a bee's long, tube-shaped tongue and stored in its extra stomach, or \"\" crop.\"\" While sloshing around in the crop, the nectar mixes with enzymes that transform its chemical composition and p H, making it more suitable for long-term storage. When a honeybee returns to the hive, it passes the nectar to another bee by regurgitating the liquid into the other bee's mouth. This regurgitation process is repeated until the partially digested nectar is finally deposited into a honeycomb. Once in the comb, nectar is still a viscous liquid — nothing like the thick honey you use at the breakfast table."

"text": "\"Why do bees collect on the bottom board? Brood nest temperatures remain fairly constant throughout the year at 93°-96° F (34-35° C.) But while a colony in late winter may consist of only 10,000 bees, a summer colony averages about 50,000 bees—and in some cases the summer population may reach 70,000+. With all those bees in the hive, the brood nest has to be cooled to keep it at the ideal bee-rearing temperature. A s temperatures increase in spring and early summer, it is not unusual to see throngs of bees sitting on the bottom board near the entrance to the hive. Even early in the morning after a cold night, they may be all lined up, looking like they are about to swarm. However, congregating at the entrance is normal behavior for this time of year. Think of it this way: Even a small cluster in the dead of winter manages to keep the brood nest warm. Individual bees take turns pressing their bodies against the brood and, by doing so, the baby bees are incubated at a cozy ninety-some degrees Fahrenheit. But as the outside temperature gets warmer, so does the inside temperature. In addition, the number of hive occupants rises dramatically."

Choosing the best possible location, however, increases the chances for a strong, productive colony. Consider both the bees and your neighbors when making your decision. Some points to keep in mind are: Bees need water to dilute honey and cool the hive during hot weather. If water is nearby, they can spend more time gathering nectar and less time collecting water. If necessary, a dripping garden hose or water trough filled with coarse gravel may be placed near the hive. Bees will drown in deep open water containers. Bee behavior is affected by temperature. They rarely work when the temperature is below 57 o F or above 100 o F. They cannot fly when the temperature is below 55 o F. On very hot days, bees cluster outside unshaded hives and do not work."

"text": "\"Everything You Need to Know About Keeping Bees and Producing Your Own Honey Jacqueline Raposo Profile Twitter Facebook Contact14 Printer-Friendly Version From equipment to communities to hive management, here's everything you need to start producing your own honey. [ Photograph: Max Falkowitz]Marina Marchese didn't plan to be a beekeeper; she was working in Manhattan in a design firm and commuting from her quaint cottage in Weston, Connecticut, with no bees on the brain. But a chance encounter with flavorful, raw honey straight from the hive made her fall in love with the sticky, sweet stuff, and set her on a path that's resulted two books, founding the American Honey Tasting Society and selling her very own honey label, Red Bee, which includes her own wildflower honey and honey from beekeepers around the country. When we last met Marchese, she was showing us the ins and outs of how honey gets made. Perhaps, like me, you're now inspired to get a hive of your own. Some assume beekeeping is a relatively easy hobby—after all, bees can make honey without our help. But even with the understanding that owning a colony is a huge responsibility, it took Marchese years to learn how best to keep her bees well-protected, healthy, and thriving. Poorly maintained hives can turn weak or fall victim to infestations, and when not given enough room to produce bees swarm to find a larger home, a huge hazard both to neighbors and your honey harvest. If a colony is properly cared for—protected from predators, given enough space to produce honey, and left enough honey to eat over the winter—you can expect your bees to thrive. And when a colony is healthy, it does magical things, like pollinate our vegetable gardens and make anywhere between 50 and 250 pounds of honey a year."

Producing nectar nectaries are in the form of flat points, bumps, grooves, often located deep in flowers, and sometimes they are hidden in special thickening of sepals or petals. Nectaries are less frequently on stems, petioles, stipules and bracts. Quantity ofnectar varies greatly in different species, for example, tropical orchids of the genus Coryanthes has up to 30 g, a common lime – 0,15-7,46 mg, macrophylla – 0,5-11,54 mg, raspberries (on average) – 14 mg, clover – 0.16 mg. Honey bees and other insects of the family of the bee recycle collected nectar and pollen in honey and ambrosia. The same plants often serve as a source nectar and pollen. Some plants (poplar, birch, cherry, etc. ), in addition, secrete resinous substance, from which the bees make glue – propolis. Honey plants are classified mainly by flowering time, the nature of a harvest and habitats. By flowering time they are most often divided into four groups: early spring, spring, summer, autumn."

A honeybee swarm is a mass of bees in a cluster usually hanging from a tree limb. Swarms are not generally a threat and are reluctant to sting HOWEVER honeybees can and will sting if provoked. Nature has programmed the honey bee to swarm as a method of propagating the species. This can occur during most any summer month but is primarily limited to the months of March, April and May in Alabama. The further south you go in the state the sooner swarming occurs. When a swarm occurs, approximately 60% of the bees in the colony will leave their hive in a swirling mass and settle in a large cluster on some nearby object such as (but not limited to) a tree limb. They will stay clustered for from a few minutes to several days depending on weather and other things."

I was still very “green” because it was my second year as a beekeeper. I am sure, as either newbies or seasoned beekeepers, that you remember what it was like when you first entered into the beekeeping fold. Do you recall your first hives? Do you remember your excitement at going to your first meetings or lectures, and the resulting 5,862 questions that you asked? There were the magazine articles you perused, the books you read (and re-read), and the catalogs you poured over. The contraptions pictured in the catalogs left me wondering, “What in the heck do you use that for?! ?” Remember ordering your first equipment and trying to sound intelligent while doing so? “ Yes, I would like a brood excluder please, and I need one drone and some of that comb frames with wired boards, I mean bars.”"

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

"text": "\"Bumble bees hibernate, honey bees do not Although honey bees and bumble bees are very closely related, their winter behaviors are very different. A colony of honey bees will live throughout the entire winter, actively keeping the nest warm and safe. Although a winter colony is much smaller than a summer colony, it will nevertheless contain thousands of individuals. They eat and work all winter long—activity which requires a large cache of stored food. Bumble bees do not maintain colonies throughout the winter. Instead, the last brood of the summer colony will contain a number of queens. Each of these queens will mate and then find a safe nesting place in which to spend the winter. This is usually just a small hole in the ground or another protected spot just big enough for her. Only the queen bumble bees hibernate until spring. The rest of the colony dies."

Reply: Yes, you need to remove the old queen before installing a new one. This is to ensure that the hive/bees know that they are queenless. Question: I have grape jelly out for orioles. Last few days the honeybee has taken over the jars and have eaten them empty for 2 days. Is this normal and should I keep filling them up for the bees Reply: Bees will eat practically any sweet liquids, including grape jelly, especially when there is a lack of floral sources nearby. But we don't think grape jelly is the best thing for bees. The sugar composition is very different from pure honey, so feeding them too much with it can cause them stomach issues."

"text": "Hopi Ear Candling/Thermal-auricular Therapy - Safe For All Ages, An Alternative To Syringing What is Hopi Ear Candling? Ear candling, sometimes called Thermal-aricular Therapy or Ear Coning involves the use of a flax tube impregnated with beeswax, honey and often essential oils, referred to as a candle. The ear candle (flax tube) is painlessly inserted into the outer ear canal whilst the fully clothed client lays comfortably on their side, with their head supported by a pillow. The ear candle is then lit (at the opposite end) and very gently turned to create a seal. The candle then creates a pleasant crackling sound and a comfortable warm feeling in the outer ear canal. After about 15 minutes the ear candle is carefully and safely removed and extinguished in a bowl of water. The process is then repeated on the other ear, after extinguishing, the beeswax residue left in the candle is examined, here Lisa will be able to get a rough idea of the severity of disruption to the ear, nose or throat. This is followed by a period of relaxation, and if recommended, Lisa will carry out an Acu-pressure facial massage concentrating on the sinus areas. How does Hopi Ear Candling work?

"text": "Why do we have ear wax? Earwax is a normal product of our ears. It is a mixture of cerumen (wax), oil, sweat, and dead skin cells that is produced in the outer 1/3 of the ear canal. Although many consider ear wax to be a nuisance, it serves two important purposes: it lubricates the ear canal and acts as an antibacterial agent. There are two types of earwax: wet and dry. Wet wax is common in Western Europe, and dry wax is more common in Asia. Researchers have identified at least one gene (the ATP-binding cassette CII gene), that determines the type of ear wax we produce. Individuals vary greatly in the amount and consistency of wax produced, which affects their predisposition to the canal becoming plugged. Some are rather prolific “wax producers,” and others remain relatively wax-free with little maintenance. So how much wax should we have?"

Yet, there's nothing unhygienic about earwax and experts strongly recommend against inserting such swabs into your ear canal. You see, your ears produce earwax for a reason. Known technically as cerumen, it's produced by glands in your ear canal. Made up mostly of dead skin cells, earwax also contains other substances, including lysozyme, an antibacterial enzyme, fatty acids, alcohols, cholesterol, and squalene. 1Earwax is a substance that's meant to be in your ears. It aids in your ears' self-cleaning process, providing protection, lubrication, and antibacterial properties.

Even though it can be experienced at any time of the day, morning sickness is thought to be caused by hormonal changes in the pregnant body and tends to improve in the second trimester. Some women will continue to experience it throughout their pregnancy. However, it does not affect the baby and the majority of women tend to have a mild form. Tips to help with morning sickness Snack little and often. For example, eat some plain biscuits early in the morning, or toast, crackers or crisp-bread, and avoid fatty foods. Cold meals are better tolerated than hot meals. Ideally, avoid potential triggers, whether these be certain foods, smells, or drinks that might induce nausea and vomiting. Ginger, either as ginger biscuits, tea or non-alcoholic ginger ale, may help with the nausea and vomiting. Some women find that wearing acupressure wristbands helps their morning sickness."

Its name is taken from the Hopi Indians of North Arizona, USA and means ‘peaceful people’. Hopi candling is a very safe therapy and its popularity is growing as more people become aware of its positive benefits. The process of Hopi candling involves a specially designed hollow candle being inserted just inside the ear canal. The candle is then lit and the suction that is formed draws the impurities from within the ear. This process is known as the chimney effect. The rising air gives the ear drum a gentle massage and also helps to regulate ear pressure. A small amount of ear wax is also removed during the treatment. Contra indications for Hopi Ear Candling Although anyone can be treated with Hopi Ear Candles there are cases where Hopi should not be used."

Thought to have migrated north out of Mexico around 500 B. C., the Hopi have always lived in the Four Corners area of the United States. In the beginning they were a hunting and gathering group divided into numerous small bands that lived in pit houses. However around the year 700 A. D. the Hopi became an agricultural people growing blue ears of corn using runoff from the mesas. At this time many of the small bands began to come together and large villages began to be established atop the mesas, the first of which at Antelope Mesa, east of present-day Keams Canyon, Arizona. Masonry walls came into use and aboveground dwellings replaced pit houses. As the population grew agriculture became more and more important. From 900 to 1100 A. D. many small masonry villages appeared in the area. A subsequent drying of the climate over the next two hundred years saw a clustering of the area’s population into larger villages, such as Oraibi, Awatovi, Wupatki, Betatakin and the villages in Canyon De Chelly.

The Hopi tribe is comprised of agricultural people who live in the Southwest United States. Learn about their society, politics, and religion, as well as how they have dealt with contact with Europeans throughout time. Hopi Indian Society The Hopi tribe is comprised of agricultural people who have lived in the Southwest United States, mainly in Arizona, since approximately 500-700 CE. They are considered one of the oldest living cultures in the world, since their history stretches back for thousands of years, and they have lived continuously on the same land for that time. They are deeply religious, with ritual ceremonies guiding most aspects of their lives. After contact with Europeans began in the 1500s, the Hopis have worked hard to keep their cultural traditions alive while still allowing some connections to the whites. Since the beginning of their long history, the Hopis have focused on agriculture, leading many scholars to call them the world's greatest dry farmers. Dry-farming tactics include farming in sheltered valleys as well as gardening on irrigated terraces along the mesa walls below each village. Dry farming also depends solely on natural precipitation (snow and rain), which is remarkable since the climate sees very little moisture in any form."

"text": "Print Diagnosis Your doctor can determine whether you have earwax blockage by looking in your ear with a special instrument that lights and magnifies your inner ear (otoscope). Treatment Earwax removal by a doctor Your doctor can remove excess wax using a small, curved instrument called a curet or by using suction while inspecting the ear. Your doctor can also flush out the wax using a water pick or a rubber-bulb syringe filled with warm water. If earwax buildup is a recurring problem, your doctor may recommend that you use a wax-removal medication, such as carbamide peroxide (Debrox Earwax Removal Kit, Murine Ear Wax Removal System). Because these drops can irritate the delicate skin of the eardrum and ear canal, use them only as directed. Alternative medicine Some people use ear candling, a technique that involves placing a lighted, hollow, cone-shaped candle into the ear, to try to remove earwax. The theory is that the heat from the flame will create a vacuum seal and the earwax will adhere to the candle. However, ear candling is not a recommended treatment for earwax blockage. Research has found that ear candling doesn't work, and it may result in injury, such as burns, ear canal obstructions and even perforations. Talk to your doctor before trying any alternative remedies for removing earwax."

J. Tim Willis Linguistic Anthropology Eastern Washington University Fall Quarter, 2013 Dr. Michael Zukosky “Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” 1 |Page One of the many questions that linguists, both Universalist and Relativist, are trying to answer with regard to language is, to put it quite simply, whether thought affects language and perceptions of reality (Universalist view), or whether language affects thought and perceptions of reality (relativist view). In this short essay, I intend to dissect these two approaches, give examples of both using the Hopi language, and draw from lecture notes, articles mentioned in class, and my personal thoughts and ideas regarding possible pitfalls and advantages in both ideologies. A friend who is a neurobiologist mentioned to me recently, on the similar subject of cognition, thought, and language that his personal view, from a biological perspective, was “the egg came first.” ( His phrase) By this he seemed to be indicating that the mechanics and biology needed for thought and language as an abstraction of thought had to be in place before either could evolve. I find this to be a solid argument. Once we move beyond the initial spark of thought and language, however, into that vague world of perception, it seems to me that things become more clouded and deserve closer inspection.

It lubricates, cleans, and protects the lining of the ear canal by repelling water, trapping dirt, and making sure insects, fungi, and bacteria do not get through and harm the eardrum. It is slightly acidic and has antibacterial properties. Without earwax, the ear canal would become extremely dry, waterlogged, and infected. However, when earwax becomes hard or accumulates, it can cause problems. Earwax consists mainly of shed layers of skin. It is 60 percent keratin, between 12 percent and 20 percent saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acids, squalene, and alcohols, and between 6 percent and 9 percent cholesterol . Symptoms of earwax problems Vertigo can be a sign of excessive earwax accumulation. An excessive accumulation of earwax, especially when it is impacted, can lead to a blocked ear.

I’ve had holistic doctors and herbalists recommend this practice to me to treat vertigo and dizziness. Whenever I’ve felt particularly dizzy, ear candling helps without a doubt. There are a lot of opinions on the effectiveness of ear candling. Some people think they cure everything and some people think they’re hogwash."

"text": "Earwax Buildup and Blockage Causes Signs and symptoms Treatment Medical help Ear candles Outlook What is earwax buildup? Your ear canal produces a waxy oil called cerumen, which is more commonly known as earwax. This wax protects the ear from dust, foreign particles, and microorganisms. It also protects ear canal skin from irritation due to water. In normal circumstances, excess wax finds its way out of the canal and into the ear opening naturally, and then is washed away. When your glands make more earwax than necessary, it may get hard and block the ear. When you clean your ears, you can accidentally push the wax deeper, causing a blockage. Wax buildup is a common reason for temporary hearing loss. You should take great caution when trying to treat earwax buildup at home. If the problem persists, visit your doctor."

"text": "Texas Horned Lizard ~ Phrynosoma cornutum What is a Horned Lizard? Giant Horned Lizard: Phrynosoma asio Horned lizards are called horny toads but really are not frogs or toads. They are reptiles - lizards. Like all reptiles, horned lizards depend primarily on their environment to control their body temperature - and they like it HOT! Most horned lizards live in desert or semi-arid environments. They are often seen basking in the morning sun on a summer day. Even so, they are susceptible to overheating, so as the day gets warmer, the lizards move into the shade and may even go into burrows to stay cool in the long summer afternoons. Horned lizards have many characteristics which distinguish them from other lizards. The most obvious characteristic is their body shape. They lack the sleek, tubular body shape of most lizards."

The group is paraphyletic as it excludes the snakes and Amphisbaenia which are also squamates. Lizards range in size from chameleons and geckos a few centimeters long to the 3 meter long Komodo dragon. Most lizards are quadrupedal, running with a strong side-to-side motion. Others are legless, and have long snake-like bodies. Some such as the forest-dwelling Draco lizards are able to glide. They are often territorial, the males fighting off other males and signalling, often with brightly colours, to attract mates and to intimidate rivals. Lizards are mainly carnivorous, often being sit-and-wait predators; many smaller species eat insects, while the Komodo eats mammals as big as water buffalo. Lizards make use of a variety of antipredator adaptations, including venom, camouflage, reflex bleeding, and the ability to sacrifice and regrow their tails."

Chameleons belong to the family of Chamaeleonidae and are highly focused clade of lizards. With their unmistakable physical features, chameleons can be easily recognized such as their stereotypic eyes, lengthy personalized tongue, and zygodactylous feet. One of the amazing chameleon facts for kids is that these reptiles are capable to change their color with respect to their surroundings. This helps them in camouflaging from potential predators. These animals inhabit all throughout South Asia, Africa, Spain, Portugal, California, and Florida. Chameleons have been introduced in Sri Lanka and are mainly found in the moderate climatic ranges including rainforests and deserts. Although occasionally they are also kept as household pets. Chameleon Facts For Kids The length of the chameleon measures at 15 mm (0.6 inches) in males however certain males are 68.5 cm (30 inches) long which makes them the smallest reptiles on the planet earth. Chameleon has a large crest on top of their heads."

"text": "Hiding amid mats of floating vegetation, large anacondas are capable of subduing virtually any animal that ventures into striking range. While the water and plants help the giant snakes to ambush prey, small individuals also derive protection from the dense cover. However, anacondas are adaptive animals, and they use other forms of shelter as well, including rocks, logs, animal burrows and mud. Anaconda Basics Four anaconda species inhabit South America: the green (Eunectes murinus), yellow (Eunectes notaeus), dark-spotted (Eunectes deschauenseei) and Bolivian (Eunectes beniensis). All four species are biologically similar, and are thoroughly aquatic constrictors that spend most of their time in sluggish bodies of water, such as swamps and ponds. Anacondas prey on mammals, crocodilians, birds and other anacondas. Female anacondas grow much larger than males—green anaconda females may exceed 20 feet in length and 500 pounds in weight, making them the largest snakes on earth. In the Water The water itself provides some shelter for anacondas, and it serves as a buffer against wide temperature fluctuations. Anacondas possess numerous adaptations that help them to excel at their aquatic lifestyle, including dorsally placed eyes and nostrils. This positioning allows them to keep most of their bodies underwater, and breach the surface only with the tips of their heads."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Anti-predator adaptation in action: the seal shark Dalatias licha (a–c) and the wreckfish Polyprion americanus (d–f) attempt to prey on hagfishes. First, the predators approach their potential prey. Predators bite or try to swallow the hagfishes, but the hagfishes have already projected jets of slime (arrows) into the predators' mouths. Choking, the predators release the hagfishes and gag in an attempt to remove slime from their mouths and gill chambers. [ 1]Anti-predator adaptations are mechanisms developed through evolution that assist prey organisms in their constant struggle against predators. Throughout the animal kingdom, adaptations have evolved for every stage of this struggle. The first line of defence consists in avoiding detection, through mechanisms such as camouflage, masquerade, apostatic selection, living underground, or nocturnality. Alternatively, prey animals may ward off attack, whether by advertising the presence of strong defences in aposematism, by mimicking animals which do possess such defences, by startling the attacker, by signalling to the predator that pursuit is not worthwhile, by distraction, by using defensive structures such as spines, and by living in a group. Members of groups are at reduced risk of predation, despite the increased conspicuousness of a group, through improved vigilance, predator confusion, and the likelihood that the predator will attack some other individual. Some prey species are capable of fighting back against predators, whether with chemicals, through communal defence, or by ejecting noxious materials."

"text": "Horned Lizards (Phrynosoma spp. ) Order: Squamata Family: Iguanidae (iguanid lizards) Other common names: horny toad Spanish name: camale�n Distinguishing Features Up to 10 species of horned lizards occur in the Sonoran Desert region, from the 2¾ inch (69 mm) long round-tailed horned lizard (P. modestum) to the 5 inch (127 mm) long Texas horned lizard (P. cornutum). With squat, flat, toad-like bodies (Phrynosoma means �toad-body�) and thorn-like projections at the rear of their heads, horned lizards are easily distinguished from other lizards. The projections differ in size and arrangement from one species to another. Along the sides of the body, fringe-like scales occur in one row, two parallel rows, or they may be absent. Males have enlarged post-anal scales, and during the breeding season, a swollen tail base. Range Regale horned lizard Horned lizards are found throughout the Sonoran Desert region from near sea level up to 11,300 feet (3440 m). Some species are widespread, such as the round-tailed and Texas horned lizards which occur in several U. S. and Mexican states, while the flat-tailed horned lizard (P. mcalli) is restricted to southwestern Arizona, extreme southeastern California, a small part of northeastern Baja California and the upper neck of northwestern Sonora, Mexico. Habitat Horned lizards are found in extremely diverse habitats. The flat-tailed horned lizard occurs in areas of fine sand, while the short-horned lizard (P. douglassii) is found in shortgrass prairie all the way up into spruce-fir forest."

Six species of dangerously venomous snakes are native to Iraq. These snakes are all fascinating creatures that are well equipped to deal with a harsh environment. People inhabiting their environment must be prepared to deal with them. As a former zookeeper at Kentucky Reptile Zoo, I have had the opportunity to work with and photograph these venomous snake species, many of which are rare in U. S. collections. It is my hope that this article will provide a useful reference to service people in Iraq and their families at home on how to avoid a dangerous snakebite, as well as provide interesting information on the snakes themselves for all readers. Snake Behavior and Human Encounters in Iraq Although Iraq includes desert, mountains and grasslands, its venomous snakes are primarily desert-dwelling, nocturnal or crepuscular (active at dawn or dusk) species. Daylight activity is relatively rare and usually confined to cooler times of the year. Rain also plays an important role in the activity and behavior of desert-dwelling snakes. Snakes often become active during and immediately following desert rains, especially at night."

Around 40 million years ago the tectonic plates gradually began pushing Africa against Europe for 20 million years. Around 20 million years ago Africa collided with Europe and closed the Tethys Sea. As Africa continued to push against Europe northern Africa began to slowly emerge from the bottom of the sea; leaving behind a tropical swamp. Eventually the swamps turned into massive expanse of searing desert around 3 million years ago. See documentary at the end of this page for details.40 Million Years Ago: The Tethys Sea. This image is a screenshot from this documentary. Around 800,000 years ago, the Sahara was hot, damp and covered with swamps and vegetation everywhere. This period of heavy rain lasted for hundreds of thousands of years; leaving behind wet and lush-green land, covered with rivers and lakes, and teeming with hippopotami, rhinoceroses, crocodiles and elephants; as well as three megalakes (giant lakes of fresh water): one lake was situated in Tunisia (the tiny Chott el Djerid of today, the ancient Lake Tritonis); the second megalake was in southern Libya (the Fezzan lakes of today ); and the third is the Chad megalake in Chad.

The numerous species of horned lizards, all members of the genus Phrynosoma, have very wide, flattened, toad-like bodies. The tail is short but broad at the base. In most species, the back of the head and temples are crowned with a prominent row of sharp, pointed horns. The tail and sides are fringed with sharp spines. On some species the sides are adorned with a double fringe of spines. On the back, there are rows of short conical spines. To the uninitiated, their dragon-like appearance is quite formidable. The squat form and head armor has given rise to the name \"\"horny toad,\"\" \"\"horned toad\"\" and \"\"horned lizards.\"\" However, since there is a true toad with horns, it is best that we speak of this genus as the \"\"horned lizards. \"\""

Inhabiting swamps in Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, Guyana and Peru, it has developed an interesting way to exploit its environment when escaping predators. Its anatomy is also specialized according to its territory and very limited diet. Differences between males and females are only easily seen when the two are observed side by side. Habitat Most lizards live in dry habitats, but caiman lizards spend most of their time in or near water. Their habitat is forested swamps and areas around rivers, where they have access to vegetation. During the daytime they lie in the sun on roots or branches that overhang water. At night they hide in bushes and trees. Native to the Amazon Basin, the greatest threat to their existence is habitat loss, although poachers also hunt them for their skin. Anatomy Interesting facts about caiman lizard anatomy include their coloration and physical adaptations to their environment."

Cold-blooded animals, such as reptiles, become hot or cold, depending on the temperature of their environment. Warm-blooded animals, such as birds, have a regulation system that keeps the body temperature constant. A warmblooded animal needs to eat ten times as much food as a cold-blooded animal, just to fuel this system. It seems likely that giant herbivores, such as sauropods, could not have eaten enough to support such a system, and were cold-blooded. The carnivorous, active theropods, however, may have been warm-blooded. Solar panels Stegosaurus was one of the plated dinosaurs, with a series of bony plates up along its back. When it was discovered, in the 1870s, scientists assumed the plates were covered in horn and used for defence. Then, a century later, tracks of blood vessels were found in fossils of the plates. This gave rise to the idea that the plates may actually have been covered in skin, not horn, and used for temperature regulation instead of defence."

Styracosaurus. Jura Park Styracosaurus, the \"\"spiked lizard,\"\" had one of the most impressive head displays of any genus of ceratopsian (horned, frilled dinosaur). On the following slides, you'll discover 10 fascinating Styracosaurus facts.02of 11Styracosaurus Had an Elaborate Combination of Frill and Horns Mariana Ruiz Styracosaurus had one of the most distinctive skulls of any ceratopsian (horned, frilled dinosaur), including an extra-long frill studded with four to six horns, a single, two-foot-long horn protruding from its nose, and shorter horns jutting out from each of its cheeks. All of this ornamentation (with the possible exception of the frill; see slide #8) was probably sexually selected: that is, males with more elaborate head displays stood a better chance of pairing up with available females during mating season.03of 11A Full-Grown Styracosaurus Weighed About Three Tons Wikimedia Commons As ceratopsians go, Styracosaurus (Greek for \"\"pointed lizard\"\") was moderately sized, adults weighing close to three tons (small compared to the largest Triceratops and Titanoceratops individuals, but much bigger than its ancestors that lived tens of millions of years before). Like other horned, frilled dinosaurs, the build of Styracosaurus roughly resembled that of a modern elephant or rhinoceros, the most notable parallels being its bloated trunk and thick, squat legs capped with enormous feet.04of 11Styracosaurus Is Classified as a \"\"Centrosaurine\"\" Dinosaur Centrosaurus, to which Styracosaurus was closely related. Sergey Krasovskiy A wide assortment of horned, frilled dinosaurs roamed the plains and woodlands of late Cretaceous North America, making their precise classification a bit of a challenge. As far as paleontologists can tell, Styracosaurus was closely related to Centrosaurus, and is thus classified as a \"\"centrosaurine\"\" dinosaur. ( The other major family of ceratopsians was the \"\"chasmosaurines\"\", which included Pentaceratops, Utahceratops and the most famous ceratopsian of them all, Triceratops . ) 05of 11Styracosaurus Was Discovered in Canada's Alberta Province The excavation of the type fossil of Styracosaurus."

If the airlock is not bubbling, it may be due to a poor seal between the lid and the bucket. Fermentation may be taking place but the CO2 is not coming out through the airlock. Cure: This is not a real problem; it won't affect the batch. Fix the seal or get a new lid next time. Cause 2: Bad Yeast When a batch is not fermenting , the most common problem is with the yeast. If dry yeast has been properly packaged and stored, it should be fully viable for up to two years. However, if you are using a yeast package that came taped to the top of a dusty can of malt extract, then the yeast may be too old or may have been subjected to poor storage conditions, and will not work for you."

We scoop it, we dump it, and we forget about it–for the most part. But have you ever really taken a look at your horse’s poop? It can actually tell you quite a bit about your horse’s overall health. Normal Horse Poop Every horse is different and their diets vary so that means not all horse poop will look the same. You need to determine what is ‘normal’ for your horse so that if a change does occur, you’ll be aware of it. Note the consistency, color, appearance, and size of your horse’s manure as well as how often he or she poops. The average horse poops about 10-12 times per day and a reduction in frequency could be a sign of colic. Consistency Dry, hard manure often smaller than normal and covered in mucous is a sign of constipation. And most of us know that constipation in horses can easily lead to colic."

If it's just a bit of clear drainage, your horse probably has a cold. If the drainage is yellowish, greenish, smells bad, or your horse has other symptoms of infection like a cough or a fever, then you probably need to have the vet out again. There are a number of diseases and infections which produce symptoms like this, but the one which most readily comes to mind is the possibility your horse could have or be developing a case of strangles. I know you said your horses are up to date on their shots, but the vaccine against strangles is NOT one hundred percent effective, and there have been cases where horses which were vaccinated have still gotten the disease. That's the first thing I'd look into, particularly if your horse's runny nose gets worse or he develops a bad color or smell to it. Strangles bacteria can live in the soil and water for years at a time, and younger horses are particularly vulnerable to infection, because they usually haven't built up any resistance to the bacteria. I know it's been very wet in Texas this past year, and moist soil is very conducive to the survival of the strangles bug. So I would definitely check this out with the vet."

"text": "Fly Repellents are one of the 10 Solutions to Horse Flies. Biting and blood sucking insects rely mainly on smell to find their prey (such as horses and us). Although other senses (e.g. sight) may be used to varying extents (depending on the type of insect), they rely mainly on smell. The various types of repellents (chemical, organic or natural) work by releasing strong scent molecules, which confuse the insect by mixing in with and masking the smell of the horse, so they are unable to home in on the smell of the horse. Trying to find their victims through these added smells is like us trying to see a distant object through fog. The term 'repellent', although commonly used, is misleading as these products do not repell the insects so much as confuse their sense of smell. Although the flies may eventually leave, it is not because they were driven away by the smell, but rather they simply moved on as they could not find they way to their prey due to the additional smells produced by the 'repellent'.

For this reason, they are made from plants which have a strong natural smell, such as:garlic, lavender, cedar, rosemary, eucalyptus, cinnamon or tea tree. Most natural repellents are sprayed onto the horse."

I have found this to be true in personal experience. That is, men can be scarier to animals and any association with fear or danger will affect how that animal approaches people in the future. Whether this has become an inherited instinct is open for debate. So the first reason a person might be more attractive to animals is: appearance.

"text": "Choosing The Right Bedding for your Horse or Pony The choice of bedding for a stabled horse used to be just a matter of choosing beween straw and wood shavings Today there is a much wider choice, with the options to bed your horse on rubber matting or flooring, shredded paper and cardboard, Flax, hemp and rapeseed based equine bedding as well as many types of woodshavings specially manufactured for horse bedding. Many dust-extracted bedding materials are available which have also been treated with non-toxic disinfectants for added equine hygiene. CHOOSE BEDDING ACCORDING TO YOUR HORSE'S NEEDSThe choice of bedding should be based on your horse's and your own needs, taking the following points and advice into consideration. Affordability - how much do you want to spend? Some products may appear expensive initially but in the long term you may save money. Calculate how much it will initially cost to fill the stable, then consider how much bedding you will need add daily to maintain the bed. Consider any health problems that your horse may suffer from, especially respiratory problems, there are dust free products especially shavings and hemp that have developed specially for horses that can suffer from the dust present in straw beds Your vet may be able to give you the most up to date advice on bedding materials suitable for horses with health problems. If your horse eats his bed it may be worth looking for a bedding material that has been treated with a non-toxic subtance to give it a bitter taste and make it unpalatable. Consider how you will dispose of the soiled bedding. Select a type that you know you can dispose of easily."

April 2, 2012 by Susan Vinskofski 86 Comments608Shares Hay vs. Straw in the Garden Search the internet for information on using hay vs. straw as mulch, and you’ll see statements like these: “I’ve never made the mistake of using hay”, or “Straw makes great mulch – or, for that matter, a great addition to your compost pile; hay does not”, and “I inadvertently asked for hay instead of straw one year and that slip of the tongue turned into a nightmare. ”The Difference Between Straw and Hay First, let me tell you the difference between hay and straw. Straw is the stalks or stems of grains like wheat, barley, or oats after the grain has been harvested.

Hay, on the other hand, is grass or legumes that have been cut and dried and is generally used as animal feed. Hay often contains seeds which sprout when used as mulch, which is why there are so many warnings against using it. Straw can also contain seeds if all of the grain was not removed, but in general it is less of a problem."

"text": "What Causes Loose Stools or Diarrhea in a Horse Loose stools in a horse or pony, if they are infrequent, are usually due to stress or nervousness. Loose or 'squittery' droppings often occur when a horse is asked to do something that causes it anxiety such as being loaded into a trailer or anticipation when being prepared for travelling to a horse show. However loose stools in a horse can also be caused by factors other than anxiety or stress: The horse or pony could have eaten a poisonous plant. There are common trees and plants that are poisonous to horses. Some of these are only mildly poisonous - but others can be fatal. Check your grazing for plants, or call in an expert to check the pasture for you. Straw bedding can cause irritation of the horse's intestinal tract if it is eaten. If you know that your horse eats straw it may be best to change to a different type of bedding. A sudden change of diet - such as feeding a bran mash. Giving your horse too many treats such as apples can also cause loose stools."

General Info The word “donkey” in the United States often refers to the domesticated animal, and the term “burro” refers to the wild, untamed version. Donkeys and burros are two names for the exact same animal. However in the western United States, a small donkey is sometimes referred to as a burro. The term burro is simply the Spanish name for a donkey. The small gray donkey of Northern Africa was the progenitor of the Spanish burro, which came with the conquistadors to Mexico and South America. These animals later played a key role in the settlement of our American West. The English word \"\"burro\"\" comes from the Spanish word \"\"borrico,\"\" meaning donkey. Much confusion is associated with donkey terminology. Here are a few terms to help: Mule: Cross between a male donkey and female horse Horse mule: Male mule Mule: Cross between a male donkey and female horse Horse mule: Male mule Mule: Cross between a male donkey and a female horse Hinny: Cross between a female donkey and a male horse Jack: Male donkey Jennet: Female donkey Mare mule: Female mule Horse hinny: Male hinny Mare hinny: Female hinny John: Male mule or hinny Molly: Female mule or hinny Jackass: Donkey Burro: Same as a donkey but often referred to as a small donkey Miniature donkey: a smaller breed of donkey Conformation Conformation of miniature, small and large standard donkeys Regardless of whether a donkey is for breeding, show or work purposes, donkeys should have proper proportions and conformation."

No, it doesn't. This explanation really doesn't make much sense, if you think about it. If you have a layer of straw on the floor think enough to start to escape outside through an open door, how easy is it going to be to be walking around in that mess? Ever tried to walk through ankle-deep straw? You're either going to be kicking it up all over the place, spreading bits of dirty straw all over everything (precisely defeating the purported purpose), or you're going to get a solid mat of mud-encrusted straw that; a) is quickly going to rot and stink, and; b) is going to be just as cold and dirty as the earthen floor it's supposedly protecting. Ever seen a horse stall with a threshold?"

The previous process involved the manual removal of kernels from husks, and the cleaning of any leftover material. It was important that as little chaff and weed seeds as possible were present in a yield to get a high price. During this era, all labor was carried out by men and livestock. [ edit]Designs of the 18th Century One of the first threshing machines was introduced in 1786 by a Scottish millwright named Andrew Meikle.

Here’s the scoop on the poop:1. Fresh Ain’t Best! Never Use New Manure Near Your Edibles Manure is a prime source of nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus. It’s also rich in bacteria. For us home gardeners, applying fresh manure to an edible garden is not the wisest choice. The high probability that it will burn and dehydrate your plants becomes second fiddle to a bigger concern – nasty illnesses caused by pathogens like E. coli and salmonella. BOTTOM LINE? Poop “fresh off the press” should not be worked into the soil during the growing season. You’ve probably seen farmers applying it like there’s no tomorrow and wondered, “if they can do it, why not me?”."

Straw is often used as bedding in horse stall, and many horses eat it. However, straw has about as much nutrition as foam packing peanuts and horses and cows cannot live on such a deficient diet. It's a bit like asking if children eat dirt. Of course they do, but they couldn't live on it. Hay is the proper fodder for farm animals.

"text": "What Do Earthworms Eat August 21, 2011 by Admin 6 Comments Earthworms will eat most things that have lived. Generally speaking, earthworms are quite specialised. In their preferred habitat, some earthworms have a preference for different types of bacteria. In turn, different bacteria prefer different types of organic matter. Some bacteria prefer protein substances and other prefer carbohydrates. So in different instances you will find different earthworms enjoying different foodstuffs. Feed For Earthworms Earthworms develop and breed best on a balanced diet of protein from meat, legumes and manures, cellulose and sugars and starch from plants. There should be more cellulose and carbohydrates than protein in their diet. Try to maintain a carbon nitrogen ratio of 20:1 for healthy earthworms. Some materials are preferable to others."

"text": "Weed-Proofing a Vegetable Garden By: Julie Day My (hopefully) weed-proof garden. My grandmother’s garden is legendary in our family for many reasons, not the least of which is that it was weed-free. After planting, she would spread layers of old newspaper between the rows, to make a nice weed-suppressing barrier that still let moisture through. On top of the newspapers would be a luxuriously thick layer of straw mulch. The resulting garden not only didn’t have weeds, it was mud-free as well. In fact, walking in her garden was like walking on carpet! And at the end of the season, she’d plow all that organic goodness into the soil to spend the winter composting and turning into next year’s giant tomatoes. It was a weed-control, pleasure-enhancing, and soil-enriching project, all in one. Happy tomato plants already reaching out of the straw mulch. Here in the age of mulch yards and landscape companies, it’s funny to think that in her day, mulching was a new – and strange – idea."

"text": "\"Difference Between Hay and Straw• Categorized under Objects | Difference Between Hay and Straw Very often you would come across people who use the words straw and hay as synonymous with each other. Like several other debates, the confusion between hay and straw is ongoing. But this has been clearly identified by the California Straw builders Association, ‘Hays is for horses, straw is for houses’. Popularly, alfalfa or clover which is cut, dried and used to feed farm animals is hay. Some of the animals fancying hay include cattle, horses, goats, sheep and rabbits and is given where the pasture is insufficient. Hence Hay is a mix of grasses like rye, timothy, brome, orchard amongst others which involves a process of cutting, curing, processing and storing. These grasses are high on nutrition and are cut when the grass is growing before the seed matures or as they are leaves. With up to three times of cuttings, hay can be sought depending on the rain, the soil and the type of grass being grown. Hay mandates a complete dry phase to avoid any moisture in it. Any remaining moisture can create a mould which is harmful to animals’ feeding on the hay."

Also wanted to put it in the building they go into to give the floor some cushion. Will it hurt them if they eat it? And is it to itchy for them to lay on? Fayette County Iowa horses straw1 Response I don't think any research has been done on bean straw specifically. However, like most other straw, it is a good bedding source and as long as horses have plenty of good quality hay to eat they should not be consuming the straw. If they do consume the straw in small quantities it should not be a problem. However, I would be most concerned if they ran out of hay and were using the straw to replace the majority of their diet. The low digestibility of straw could cause impaction."

If your soil is so poor that amending, or enhancing, it with compost, fertilizers, or leaf mold makes you exhausted just thinking about it, then using straw bales for planting may be the perfect solution. What is straw bale gardening? Straw bales can be used like raised beds in the yard so that no additional soil is needed. There is a difference between straw and hay, so you’ll want to use straw bales, not hay bales, if possible. Hay is grass and straw is stalk — think grains like barley and wheat after the harvest instead of dried grass. The bales must be conditioned so that they can act as a growing medium, but once that’s accomplished, you’re good to plant. Just make sure that your straw bales are placed in a bright, sunny location and kept well-watered. If you do, you can grow almost anything in straw bales. Why Use the Straw Bale Gardening Technique?"

For example the white horse symbolizes light, sun, day vitality, illumination, resurrection, and messenger of birth. Sometimes, horses are related to the sun, moon, and water. It acts as the mediator between Earth and Heaven. Horse symbolizes power, grace, beauty, nobility, strength, and freedom. Historically, the best horses have often been only available to the upper classes, who in turn used them as symbols of status, for hunting and other recreation, and for use in warfare. This is shown in the social hierarchies of Greece (see \"\"hippies\"\"), Rome (see \"\"equites\"\"), and Medieval Europe (see \"\"knights\"\"). However, this was not a strictly European tendency, as the same general trend occurred wherever horses were present. For this reason, horses can be associated with wealth, status, nobility, and war."

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."

One dreamer even saw a pig with wings (yes, Marcus, pigs really do fly!). Although the symbolic meaning of wings in dreams is certainly a relevant point to explore, it's not the only bone of contention in our reach for deeper digging. Consider, mythology gives us oodles of winged beasts in the form of hybrids: Meaning of Wings on Horses: Known as pterippi ( pteros in Greek means \"\"winged\"\" and hippos means horse). Pegasus is a pterippus, and a magnificent one at that. The symbolic meaning of the horse is pretty intense with themes of power and mobility. The horse alone also carries archetypal themes of unifying grounded stability (four feet on the ground) with higher ideals (from speed and mobility). This theme really comes to life when we add wings to the horse."

Ted Andrews even says that no animal has contributed more to the spread of civilization as the horse. Although the horse was present in many different cultures, they represent the same concepts of freedom and power. In some cultures, white horses stand for the balance of wisdom and power. In others, like Christianity, the white horse is a symbol of death. The horse is a universal symbol of freedom without restraint, because riding a horse made people feel they could free themselves from their own bindings.

It was painted as a reaction to the aerial bombing of Guernica, Spain by German and Italian forces during the Spanish Civil War in 1937. The Spanish Republic, government of Spain, appointed Picasso to paint a large mural about the bombing to display at the 1937 World’s Fair in Paris. Guernica shows the cataclysms of war as well as the anguish and destruction it inflicts upon people, especially innocent civilians. This painting has attained an enormous reputation over the years, and has become an everlasting reminder of the devastation of war, in addition to becoming an anti-war icon. After it was completed, Guernica was exhibited worldwide during a limited tour, receiving wide acclaim and becoming quite famous. The exposure assisted in bringing the Spanish Civil War to the world’s awareness. The Painting – Summary Of Individual Components The colors of Guernica are black, white, and grey.

In Asian culture there is aot such a wide gap between spiritual and material things as there seems to exist in the western civilization of today. Therefore religious symbols are a living part of all aspects of Asian culture. We will describe the different symbols both in their outer and inner or esoteric meaning, according to the different teachings of Lord Budddha. However, according to the bnuddhisst teachings the very physical existence of any phenomena is dependent on the inner meaning, which is due to the mental creation or Karmic activity of the sentient beings. That means that the face that the symbols do exist is due to the mental or Karmic creation of those beings and cannot exist without it. Just as a plant needs a seed in order to come into existence, in the same way the plant as a symbol exists only because there is a Karmic seed which causes it. In fact, the very existence of the material or physical plant is also dependent on the existence of a karmic seed in the consciousness of the beings in whose world that plant grows Therefore what we call symbols are not artificial, cultural creations invented by somebody, but they correspond to a real karmic activity which manifests in the external level as a material object-a plant or animal in this case-and in the internal, mental level corresponds to a mental experience."

"text": "Causes, Prevention, and Treatment of Hot Spots Many dog owners have heard of or have experienced hot spots on their pet. Here we take a look at what a hot spot is, what causes it, and how to treat hot spots. What is a Hot Spot? Hot Spot on a dog A hot spot is a moist skin rash, and is usually quite itchy. Also known as acute moist dermatitis or pyotraumatic dermatitis, they generally occur around the head, neck, rump and occasionally on the trunk of the body. Dogs of any age or breed can develop hot spots, but certain breeds such as Golden Retrievers, Labradors, and Rottweilers are more prone to developing hot spots. What Causes Hot Spots on Dogs? Hot spots start with an itch. Constant scratching by the dog leads to raw damaged skin, which then oozes serum which causes matting of the hair. This disrupted skin surface promotes bacterial growth, which can make the hot spot even itchier."

"text": "Share Our skin acts as the protective barrier between our internal body systems and the outside world. Its ability to perceive touch sensations gives our brains a wealth of information about the environment around us, such as temperature, pain, and pressure. Without our sense of touch, it would be very hard to get around in this world! We wouldn't feel our feet hitting the floor when we walked, we wouldn't sense when something sharp cut us, and we wouldn't feel the warm sun on our skin. It is truly amazing how much information we receive about the world through our sense of touch, and although we still don't know all the ins and outs of how the skin perceives touch, what we do know is interesting. Skin Science Lesson Skin Anatomy The skin is composed of several layers. The very top layer is the epidermis and is the layer of skin you can see. In Latin, the prefix “epi-” means “upon” or “over.” So the epidermis is the layer upon the dermis (the dermis is the second layer of skin). Made of dead skin cells, the epidermis is waterproof and serves as a protective wrap for the underlying skin layers and the rest of the body."

And the reason is simple; laser energy greatly improves local circulation, local lymphatic drainage, & local cell activity. It helps kill germs and reduces inflammation and edema. All great things when it comes to wound healing. We use the laser routinely after surgery to reduce post op swelling, inflammation and pain as well as to speed healing.

Of course dogs can’t talk, but their body language can be very eloquent. The better you know your dog—his or her habits, appearance, and behavior—the more apparent these signs will be. Acting promptly at the first signs of illness can help prevent suffering, save money, and even save a life. The following are common ways in which dogs tell us they’re sick. This list is not exhaustive, nor is it a substitute for professional veterinary advice. Please note that these symptoms are more worrisome in a very young, very old, or otherwise frail dog, since they have fewer defenses when illness strikes. If your dog’s behavior or appearance worries you, always consult your vet. Behavior Change You know your dog best. And if your dog behaves strangely, he is probably telling you something."

Are there eardrops, home remedies, and other treatments that can help get rid or deal with this menace? Clogged or plugged ears refers to “a feeling of fullness or pressure in your ears” [mayoclinic.org] due to obstruction of eustachian tubes (that results to positive or negative pressure in the middle ear) that connect the nose and your middle ears. Clogged ears might be accompanied with some earache, ear pain, dizziness, popping or crackling sound, muffled sense of hearing, etc. Clogged or plugged ears can be annoying The eustachian tubes help balance inner ear and outside air pressure and it should click each time you blow your nose, yawn or swallow when it is functioning properly. Clicking happens as it opens momentarily to allow air to flow from inner ear to the nose (outside environment). Open and blocked Eustachian tubes Although the problem is common in children, it also affects people of all ages and you might experience clogged ears at various times such as when you wake up, while sleeping on your ear, while you are talking, when exposed to extreme weather conditions or throughout the day.

In some cases, pain accompanies the redness, with some sufferers reporting that the ears also become tender to the touch. A number of triggers that lead to an outbreak of red ear syndrome have been identified. Unfortunately, there is not a solitary course of treatment that can correct the problem. Most of the triggers of red ear syndrome have to do with some sort of movement of the head. People have experienced outbreaks while chewing food, drinking, coughing, sneezing, or simply turning the neck rapidly in a single direction. There are cases in which sufferers would experience an outbreak of redness and discomfort after touching the earlobe. Other physical conditions can sometimes trigger an episode of red ear syndrome. For example, migraine sufferers may find that the ears turn red and are somewhat tender to the touch during the course of the head pain. Various forms of joint dysfunction also seem to trigger the reaction in some people."

While swimming or taking a bath or shower, water can get inside the ears. Normally, the wax present in the ear canal prevents fluid from going deep inside the ear. But at times, fluid can get trapped within the ear. This causes a tickling sensation in the ear that can create much discomfort. It may also be accompanied by pain and reduced hearing ability. If left untreated, fluid in the ear can cause hearing loss, cyst formation, eardrum inflammation and other complications. This is why it is important to get rid of fluid in the ears as soon as possible. First, you need to find out whether the fluid is accumulated in the outer ear or middle ear. Fluid accumulation in the middle ear must be treated by a doctor."

"text": "Named for their habit of living on, in and near the homes of people, Mediterranean house geckos are common inhabitants of many anthropogenically altered habitats. Hiding under shingles and shutters, growing heavy eating the many flying insects drawn to nearby porch lights and street lamps, house geckos thrive living directly adjacent to humans. As you may expect, many lizards who live in close association with humans, adapt very well to captivity and make great pets. Enclosure A glass aquarium fitted with screened lid makes a good habitat for your Mediterranean house gecko (Hemidactylus turcicus). Though house geckos are relatively small lizards that reach only about 5 inches in length, they require spacious cages. A 10-gallon aquarium is acceptable, but a 20-gallon “tall” aquarium will provide your gecko with more space. With a large enough cage, you can keep house geckos in small groups; you can keep one male with several females, but males may be antagonistic to one another and should not be housed together. Heating and Lighting Mediterranean house geckos prefer rather warm temperatures, but it is important to provide your gecko with a thermal gradient so the creature can move between warm and cool areas to maintain an appropriate body temperature. Facilitate him by placing a heat lamp fitted with an incandescent bulb at one end of the cage. Use an infrared thermometer to check the surface temperatures in the cage; the temperatures right under the heat lamp should be in the mid-90s and should drop to the low 80s at the cool end of the cage."

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."

"text": "By Laurie Hess, DVM, Dipl ABVP (Avian Practice)Lizards of all kinds are very popular pets, and given the variety of lizard species available today, it can be confusing to know what to feed them. Some lizards are carnivores (eat only animal products), some are herbivores (eat only vegetable and fruit) and some are omnivores (eat both meat and vegetables plus fruit). It is impossible to generalize what lizards eat, as different lizard species require different diets to be healthy. We know that all lizards need fresh water daily, and most also need supplemental nutrients—such as calcium and vitamin D3, plus a multivitamin—the frequency of which depends on their species, age and breeding status. Typically, supplemental vitamins and minerals are provided as a powder dusted in small amounts on insects or produce, depending on the lizard’s diet. For most commonly kept captive lizards, calcium without added vitamin D3 should be sprinkled on food every other day alternating with calcium containing vitamin D3 on the days in between. In addition, a multivitamin should be offered on food once a week. Finally, regardless of species, lizards should never be fed fire flies (also called lightning bugs), as these insects are toxic and typically kill all lizards that ingest them. Perhaps the most commonly kept lizards today include bearded dragons, leopard geckos, and chameleons. Learn more about the feeding requirements for each species, below."

"text": "1 Start handling your gecko when it is young. When you first buy your leo, it will need some time to adjust to its new home. Let it sit in its tank for max a day unless it's very stressed, then give it some more time so it can explore and get comfortable. Don’t feel bad if, once it checks out its home, it doesn’t come out of its favorite hiding spot for a while. Having said that, the earlier you familiarize yourself with your gecko, the better, as geckos who are handled and played with at a young age are generally much more calm and loving when held at a later age. An ideal age to begin playing with your gecko is when it is five to six months old, but any age that it is comfortable with humans is good as long as it's not still a hatchling.2 Understand that your gecko might be a little creeped out by you. In the wild, anything as large as we are would be considered a threat by any lizard. So don't feel bad if your gecko takes a little while to warm up to you. Don’t rush your gecko. If you are antsy to begin handling and playing with your gecko, comfort yourself by learning all about your leo."

Although most of my geckos are housed in simple, low budget setups, I find the larger naturalistic enclosure on my desk to be the most enjoyable. We will primarily discuss the most common types of crested gecko setup, which are almost universally agreed to be reasonable, but there is still some controversy about very large and very small enclosures, types of substrate and other specific issues. The more controversial opinions will be marked as such. A juvenile crested gecko under 10 grams can be kept in a 6qt “shoebox” style plastic tub (12 inches long, 1.5 gallons) or a large Kritter Keeper (14.5 inches long, 3 gallons). A 16-20 quart tub is good for up to 24 grams. After that, the animal is generally sexable and can do into an adult enclosures with a minimum of 10 gallons. 20 is preferable. We prefer the 12 X 12 X 18 inch Zoo Med tanks for 24-35 gram adults. For breeding size adults, pairs usually go into 18X18X24 inch Zoo Med tanks."

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."

Male leopard geckos reach a size of 10 to 12 inches long, and female leopard geckos can measure from 7 to 10 inches long. Leopard geckos are known to live more than 20 years. Due to the beautiful variety of captive-bred colors and patterns, leopard geckos have become one of the most popular lizard species kept worldwide. Ron Tremper The author was a pioneer in producing captive-bred albino leopard gecko hatchlings. Leopard Habitat A 10- to 20-gallon aquarium houses two leopard geckos for their entire lives from hatchling to adult. Caging should be at least 1 foot tall, and have a secure screen top that will support a light fixture and keep bothersome cats from dining on your pet. Live or artificial plants can be added for decoration. Newspaper, pea gravel, artificial turf, flat stones or no floor covering are good substrate choices for leopard geckos. Sand or fine-particle products on the cage floor can cause intestinal impaction if consumed by young or debilitated geckos."

How long depends largely on the condition and age of the gecko. A really young gecko needs to eat almost daily or its growth can be stunted, and it can even die. An adult gecko with plenty of fat reserves in his tail could probably survive for months- not that it would be good for him. Thats what that fat tail is for-its saved up fat to live off of in lean times. If his tail is skinny, its far more critical to get food. The tail of a well fed gecko should be fairly fat in the middle. My advise- if you cant find mealworms, give him something else- a few crickets, a pinky mouse (if he's big enough to eat one), or any other good feeder insect. Variety is good for them anyways."

They are also very territorial and they are very colorful. Most day geckos do not tolerate handling and should be thought of as a viewable pet instead of an interactive one. As with most animals there are exceptions depending on the individual gecko. Phelsuma have some fairly stringent care requirements, and beginning day gecko keepers should start with some of the easier to care for species such as Phelsuma madagascariensis grandis (Giant Day Gecko), Phelsuma laticauda (Gold Dust Day Gecko), and Phelsuma lineata (Lined Day Gecko). Even though most day geckos species have many common needs, there are also many different care requirements between species Housing: Most day geckos require a vertically oriented enclosure with many tall plants and bamboo to climb on. Smaller species should be housed in a minimum of a 10 gallon enclosure for a pair of day geckos. The larger species should be housed in 20 gallon or larger enclosures for pairs of day geckos.

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.

Of the almost 6,000 living species of lizards currently recognized, the ones in these families are the most abundant and widespread globally, collectively representing more than half of the world's lizards. The eastern United States has only one native species of gecko, the Florida reef gecko, which is found only in the Florida Keys. The most frequently encountered gecko in the country is an introduced species, the Mediterranean gecko, which is almost white with little bumps on the body. Mediterranean geckos are benign creatures that are completely harmless to humans. They are not known to cause problems for any native lizard or other animal. The areas where they persist are around human habitation, which means most of the native wildlife has already been eliminated or affected in some way. Geckos are active primarily at night and are often seen prowling around outdoor lights where they find their prey, insects and spiders. Most southerners will probably appreciate the information that these geckos will eat roaches."

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."

It may seem that a centipede has a million legs, but in reality, the long bugs typically possess between 30 to 70 legs. The pest (which is classified as an arthropod) has received its nickname as the “thousand-legger” because they appear to have lots of legs as they quickly move across a floor or wall. Ranging in shades of tan, brown, and red, there are an estimated 8,000 species of centipedes around the world [1]. Centipedes usually seek shelter in the outdoors under rocks, tree bark, and leaves, as well as indoors in basements and bathrooms. Because a centipede is an arthropod, they have skeletons on the outside of their bodies and possess segmented, jointed legs. Interestingly, centipedes are carnivores – eating other insects considered pests in households, such as spiders, moths, common houseflies, and cockroaches."

Accounting for almost 91% of all the flies that live among us, they invade our homes and consume the buffets we set before them. They are one of the most elusive insects, making it far too difficult to eradicate them completely. They are the guests that never leave. So, just what is the lifespan of a fly? Why do these insects choose your home? And, just how you are going to get rid of your fly problem? The Lifespan of a Fly If you find yourself here desperately hoping to find good news about the lifespans of the flies that currently overwhelm you, we’re sorry to disappoint. The lifespan of a fly ranges from 15 to 30 days. For some of us, this is far too long to play landlord to these invasive tenants."

The main part of their body, called their abdomen, has 8 segments in males and 9 segments in females. Females have 5 segments of their abdomen visible all the time. She sticks out the other 4 when she lays her eggs. This way, she can lay eggs under the surface. Females are a little bit bigger than males. Like all flies, they only have one pair of translucent wings for flying and the second pair are only used for balance. Houseflies are 4 to 8 mm long, and are 6.35 mm long on average. Larvae are 12 to 13 mm long, yellowish white, and have smooth and shiny bodies. ("

They have leaf-like protrusions on their bodies, as well as leaf-like lobes on their legs, complete with an extremely long, thin neck that resembles a stick. They get their nickname from how closely the adults resemble a violin. They mostly come in shades of pale gold to dark brown, but when kept in an environment with higher humidity levels, they can start to take on more greenish shades. These mantises are native to India, so they like it hot. The most important thing you need to know about adopting this species is that they MUST BE provided with an additional heat source to thrive. At bare minimum, you should use a desk lamp with a 60 Watt incandescent bulb to heat their enclosure. They also do well with reptile heat lamps or heat emitters. Their enclosures should be kept between 85°F and 104°F, and should have at least 30% relative humidity (RH) at all times."

"text": "\"How Do Flies Turn into Maggots? By Laura Agadoni The metamorphosis of the fly is an interesting one; the fly undergoes many changes before it ends up being a fly, which is the last stage of its development. Therefore, flies do not turn into maggots, which is the second stage of a fly's development. At some point, however, and if all goes well, maggots turn into flies. The Emergence of Maggots Flies begin as eggs, which look like grains of rice. The eggs hatch between 8 and 20 hours after an adult fly lays them. What emerge from the eggs are larvae, also called maggots. Maggots can be half an inch long, are off-white and resemble worms. A maggot's head is the thin side. A visible mouth with a hook is found there."

The flying insects rarely grow larger than 1/4 of an inch long and they can only ingest liquids. To turn decaying matter and solid food into a liquefied state, they throw saliva up on the food source. The saliva then liquefies the food so that the flies can suck it up using their proboscis."

"text": "\"Life Cycle of a Fly Sharing is caring!Facebook 0 Twitter Google+ 1Pinterest 0The Life Cycle of a Fly Now, the life cycle of a fly is a rather simple and straightforward process to understand, since these bothersome bugs only undergo four significant life cycle stages : the egg, the larva, the pupa, and the final adult form. Life Cycle of a Fly Stage 1 : Fly Eggs To start, a single fly egg is understandably undetectable at approximately 1.2 mm long. But, even when floating among clusters of 75 to 100 egg batches, they are still easily overlooked. With houseflies being among the hardest insects to eradicate, it’s mainly because of the female, egg-laying potential of 500 eggs. Regardless, these badgering bugs are also notorious for spreading diseases like wildfire. Where do Flies Lay Their Eggs? Next, the egg capsules require warm, moist conditions to experience optimal incubation. They are usually found residing within close proximity of the breeding grounds. However, the eggs do suffer risk of never hatching without the perfect atmosphere, such as the highly sought after manure pile. Life Cycle of a Fly Stage 2 : Fly Larva When larva emerge within a short 8 – 24 hours, they embrace their feast of fecal matter."

"text": "If an insect is carrying a virus or other disease, it can transmit it to humans and animals through saliva when it bites or through its feces. Insects that carry diseases are called vectors and are more common in less developed countries. Controlling insect population around humans and animals helps to reduce the transmission of disease. Use building materials that are pest-proof, eliminate pest food sources and use physical traps or poison. Fleas Fleas may carry Murine typhus and bubonic plague. People living in the western and southwestern United States are at the highest danger of contracting bubonic plague from fleas. In addition, fleas may carry filarial worms or heartworms that infest dogs and tape worms that attack cats, dogs and occasionally humans. Fleas are wingless insects that feed on blood and most commonly infest domestic dogs and cats. To control flea infestation, it is important to treat all animals and their indoor and outdoor environments simultaneously. Mosquitoes Mosquitoes have been vectors of malaria and yellow fever for thousands of years."

You can attract different types of earthworms and encourage their activity by watering your garden without oversaturating it and providing food sources including grass clippings, organic mulch and “green manure,” such as cover crops that get plowed under in the spring. Lumbricus Terrestris The nightcrawler or dew worm, a deep burrowing or anecic earthworm, can be brown, red or sometimes greenish and grows up to 12 inches long. The genera Lumbricus belongs to the earthworm family of Lumbricidae, which also includes the genera of Eisenia, Dendrobaena and Allolobophora. Lumbricus Rubellus The redworm, a litter-dwelling or epigeic earthworm, grows up to 3 inches long and has from 95 to 120 segments and no stripes. Allolobophora Caligninosa This grayish-blue worm, about 3 to 4 inches long, is the common earthworm, also called the field earthworm. Eisenia Fetida Red wigglers prefer to live their lives on farms with manure to feed on but may be introduced to gardens by birds, the use of farm manure, or via compost from an indoor worm bin, where they account for most of the worms used in home vermiculture. Red wigglers are reddish brown and grow about to be about 3 inches long. Their bodies have alternating, subtle bands of yellow and maroon. This hardy worm tolerates cold winters well and is found in Alaska."

You can grow them outdoors if your climate is right or provide them with an indoor artificial environment that mimics their natural growing conditions. In the wild, they grow in U. S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 7b and 8a on the coasts of North Carolina and South Carolina. Introduced populations are found in bogs on the Florida panhandle and the New Jersey pine barrens. Natural Environment The key to growing Venus flytraps yourself is understanding their natural environment. Venus flytraps grow naturally in sandy bogs beneath the canopies of coastal forests, an area called an understory. Fires ordinarily keep an understory open -- that is, free of competing brush that blocks the light that Venus flytraps need. They grow in moist, acidic and nutrient-poor soil. Fires that deprive an area of nitrogen do not bother the Venus fly trap, which gets its nitrogen from insects. Artificial Environment Venus flytraps are easy to grow in a fishbowl or old aquarium."

What Do Spiders Eat Despite the fact that nearly all spiders are considered to be predatory by nature, the jumping spider acquires more than 90% of its nutrition from the plants material which are generated by acacias in an attempt to a mutually beneficial relationship with ant species. There are certain spiders that predominantly feed on plant nectar such as those befalling under the families Corinnidae, Thomisidae, Salticidae, Clubionidae, and Anyphaenidae.

"text": "World's Biggest Crab - Japanese Spider Crab Epic Wildlife Subscribe 1.2MAdd to Share More2,028,550 views2,8081,527Published on Jun 15, 2013The largest crab in the world is the giant Japanese Spider Crab. This giant crab can be found In Suruga Bay off of the coast of Japan. This species of marine crab named the Japanese Spider Crab that has the largest leg span of any arthropod known to exist. Its body can measure up to 16 inches across, and up to 12 feet from claw to claw, with the whole crab weighing up to 40 pounds. Imposing in size, and ferocious in appearance, the crab has been reported to have a gentle disposition. With an orange body, and white spots on its legs the Japanese spider crab may appear similar to other crabs, but it differs in a few notable ways. In the male crab, the first pleopods, also known as swimming legs are unusually twisted and its larvae have been described as primitive. The male Japanese Spider Crab can easily be distinguished from its female counterpart due to having have much longer chelipeds. The crab can be found in depths from 50 feet up to 2000ft feeding on shellfish and animal carcasses and may live up to 100 years. They are primarily found in Suruga Bay, and while only occasionally collected for food, their numbers are dwindling, forcing fishermen into deeper waters to find them."

Credit: Sandra Caldwell | Shutterstock Huntsman spiders are large, fast spiders distributed in warm climates throughout the world. They are notable for the way that they catch their prey. Huntsman spiders \"\"don't build webs to catch prey,\"\" explained entomologist Christy Bills, Invertebrate Collections manager at the Natural History Museum of Utah. Rather, they hunt down their prey, a habit that gives them their common name. There are thousands of subspecies in this family (Sparassidae). The average huntsman spider species is about 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) long with a leg span of up to 5 inches (12.7 cm). The giant huntsman spider, however, has a leg span of up to 12 inches (30 cm), making it the largest spider by diameter; it is often described as being \"\"the size of a dinner plate.\"\" Peter Jäger, head of the arachnology department at the Senckenberg Research Institute in Frankfurt, Germany, discovered the giant huntsman in a cave in Laos in 2001, according to the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). Only a few people in the world have seen this behemoth arachnid."

Credit: Andrew Snyder One dark night in the Guyana rainforest, herpetologist Andrew Snyder serendipitously shined his flashlight on \"\"a small glint of brilliant, cobalt blue\"\" sticking out of a rotting stump. At first, Snyder thought the glint was coming from the eyes of a spider, which usually shine blue under bright lights. But that wasn't the case, he quickly realized. Rather, Snyder had come across a previously unknown species of tarantula with hairy, blue legs. \"\" I immediately knew that this one was unlike any species I have encountered before,\"\" Snyder, a doctoral student in the Department of Biology at the University of Mississippi and a photographer, wrote in a Global Wildlife Conservation blog. [ In Photos: Tarantulas Strut Their Stuff]Also astounding was the spider's hangout: a 5-foot-tall (1.5 meters) tree stump that was riddled with holes. It's unclear whether the tarantula made the holes, \"\"but most, if not all, of the holes appeared to have its own tarantula residing in it,\"\" Snyder told Live Science. The discovery was part of a monthlong survey in March 2014 known as the second Biodiversity Assessment Team expedition, in which researchers looked for new species in Guyana's Kaieteur National Park. The survey was a success: The group discovered more than 30 species that are likely new, including the newfound tarantula, a frog, several dragonflies and damselflies, and a few beetles, according to a report released Nov. 16 by the conservation groups Global Wildlife Conservation and World Wildlife Fund Guianas."

"text": "Australian Spiders Interesting Spider Facts: Australia has over 2,400 species of spider. Less than 50 of them are harmful to humans. Spiders were among the first animals to live on land, an estimated 400 million years ago. Spiders have their head and thorax combined, jaws designed for piercing or tearing prey and eight legs. This places them alongside scorpions, ticks and mites in a group called Arachnids. After mating the male St Andrew’s Cross spider is likely to be eaten by his partner. Most spider bites can cause a reaction. Always seek medical advice when a spider bite is suspected. There is an urban myth that says the Daddy Long Legs is the country's most poisonous spider. This myth is still unsubstantiated as it has a jaw that cannot open wide enough to bite us! ("

"text": "\"Common Spider Bites, Symptoms & Treatment Many people write and ask me about spider bites. As I'm not a doctor I can't diagnose or offer treatment for these bites. You MUST see a doctor if you are concerned about a bite you receive. Many other animals also produce symptoms similar to some spider's bites. Some of these are - kissing bugs, fleas, bed bugs, flies, mites, wasps, ants and blister beetles all of which have produced lesions similar to a brown recluse spider bite. Many skin disorders and medical conditions can produce lesions that can also mimic a brown recluse spider bite. Some of these include infected herpes outbreaks, bedsores, diabetic ulcers, poison oak and Lyme disease which can be caused by a tick bite. Again, use common sense: If there is a wound that is not healing as expected or getting worse, see your doctor! ! If a spider is not listed here, like the orb weaving family of spiders, it is because their bite is not significant being no worse than a bee or wasp sting. However, any person can be allergic to spider bites so a doctor should be consulted if any symptoms of an allergic reaction are present."

In lupus treatment, a urinalysis is often used to monitor protein leakage and identify and assess urinary tract infections (UTIs). Most people with kidney lupus (lupus nephritis) will have an abnormal urinalysis. Protein, urine casts (especially red blood cell casts), red blood cells, or white blood cells in the urine can indicate serious kidney involvement; leukocyte esterase may indicate a bladder infection. Urine samples can be given at any time while at the doctor’s office. A urine culture is performed to assess for a bladder infection and to determine appropriate antibiotics. Before giving a urine sample, ask a medical professional to counsel you on how to prevent contamination. Several analytical elements of the complete urinalysis are explained below. Physical Examination / Macroanalysis In this portion of the analysis, the color, clarity, and concentration of the urine are evaluated. Abnormal colors can result from disease, certain foods, or contamination, so the physical examination is generally viewed as a crude assessment."

The latest warning came in November, 2011. Dogs in Canada are also getting sick. The cause is still unknown. Note that these products often appear to be made in the U. S., but if you search carefully, you'll find \"\"Made in China\"\" in tiny print somewhere on the bag. In April, 2012, reports started coming in about dried sweet potato treats, and possibly pig ears, causing the same problems.

"text": "\"Urinalysis can reveal diseases that have gone unnoticed because they do not produce striking signs or symptoms. Examples include diabetes mellitus, various forms of glomerulonephritis, and chronic urinary tract infections. The most cost-effective device used to screen urine is a paper or plastic dipstick. This microchemistry system has been available for many years and allows qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis within one minute by simple but careful observation. The color change occurring on each segment of the strip is compared to a color chart to obtain results. However, a careless doctor, nurse, or assistant is entirely capable of misreading or misinterpreting the results. Microscopic urinalysis requires only a relatively inexpensive light microscope. MACROSCOPIC URINALYSISThe first part of a urinalysis is direct visual observation. Normal, fresh urine is pale to dark yellow or amber in color and clear. Normal urine volume is 750 to 2000 ml/24hr."

Casts are held together by a protein released by the kidney. The content of a cast can tell your health care provider whether your urine is healthy or abnormal. Types of urinary casts include: Fatty casts Granular casts Hyaline casts Red blood cell casts Renal tubular epithelial casts Waxy casts White blood cell casts Alternative Names Hyaline casts; Granular casts; Renal tubular epithelial casts; Waxy casts; Casts in the urine; Fatty casts; Red blood cell casts; White blood cell casts How the test is performed A clean-catch (midstream) urine sample is needed, preferably the first morning urine sample. For information on how to collect this sample, see: Clean-catch urine culture How to prepare for the test No special preparation is needed. How the test will feel The test involves only normal urination, and there is no discomfort. Why the test is performed Your doctor may order this test to see if your kidneys are working properly and to check for certain conditions such as kidney infections, glomerular disease, and interstitial kidney disease. Normal Values There are different types of casts. The presence of a few hyaline casts is normal."

In lupus treatment, a urinalysis is often used to monitor protein leakage and identify and assess urinary tract infections (UTIs). Most people with kidney lupus (lupus nephritis) will have an abnormal urinalysis. Protein, urine casts (especially red blood cell casts), red blood cells, or white blood cells in the urine can indicate serious kidney involvement; leukocyte esterase may indicate a bladder infection. Urine samples can be given at any time while at the doctor’s office. A urine culture is performed to assess for a bladder infection and to determine appropriate antibiotics. Before giving a urine sample, ask a medical professional to counsel you on how to prevent contamination. Several analytical elements of the complete urinalysis are explained below. Physical Examination / Macroanalysis In this portion of the analysis, the color, clarity, and concentration of the urine are evaluated. Abnormal colors can result from disease, certain foods, or contamination, so the physical examination is generally viewed as a crude assessment."

On This Page: Urinalysis Chemical Examination Microscopic Examination Recommended Clinic What is Urine? Blood passes through the kidneys, and next urine is formed and excreted. Urine is made up of substances that are not used or needed by our cells, so they are the leftovers of metabolic processes (e.g., urea). The blood is first filtered and all small molecules, including both nutrients and wastes, enter a nephron. There are about 1,000,000 nephrons in each human kidney and nephrons are the active part of the kidney that produces urine while removing waste and excess substances from the blood. The nutrient molecules and some salts and water are reabsorbed back into the blood, while unwanted substances remain within the nephron to become a part of the urine. Urinalysis A urinalysis is, as the name suggests, is an analysis of the urine. A sample of 30-60mls of your urine is needed for urinalysis. Your GP may order urinalysis in a lab to test for kidney, metabolic disorders and urinary tract infections."

Performing microscopic analysis on only dipstick positive urine samples is cost effective when the patient population being tested has a low incidence of potential disease. Numerous studies have determined that 6 to 20% of patients with urine sediment abnormalities are missed by this testing strategy. However, most of the missed cases are clinically insignificant and are often due to contaminating bacteria multiplying after urine collection. Urine dipsticks are plastic strips with attached reagent pads for p H, protein, glucose, ketone, bilirubin, urobilinogen, blood, nitrite, and leukocyte esterase. The principle and performance of each dipstick test is summarized below.p HThe test is based on a double indicator method (methyl red and bromthymol blue) that covers the entire range of urine p H.

"text": "Urine Collection Types of urine specimens: Over the course of a 24-hour period, the composition and concentration of urine changes continuously. For this reason, various types of specimens may be collected, including: First morning specimen Single random specimen Timed short-term specimens Timed long term specimens: 12 or 24 hours Catheterized specimen or specimen from an indwelling catheter Double voided specimens (test for sugar and acetone)Clean-catch (midstream) specimen for urine culture and cytological analyses The first voided morning specimen is particularly valuable because it is more concentrated and abnormalities are easier to detect. An early morning specimen is also relatively free of dietary influences and changes due to physical activity. In collecting any urine specimen, it is always important for the nurse to observe specific agency protocols, to check with the laboratory regarding the need for refrigeration or preservation of specimens, and to follow universal precautions. Single random specimens may be taken at any time of the day or night. Timed specimens range from short-term 2-hour collections to 24-hour collections. A 24-hour urine specimen is an extremely important diagnostic test because it reveals how the kidney adjusts to changing physiologic needs over a long period. Substances excreted by the kidney are not excreted at the same rate or in the same amounts during different periods of day and night; therefore, a random urine specimen does not accurately represent the processes taking place over a 24-hour period. However, a 24-hour urine specimen is useful only when all the patient's urine is collected for 24 hours. Even if just one sample is discarded, the results will be inaccurate."

"text": "\"Urinary Tract Cytology INTRODUCTIONThe urinary tract is composed of the kidneys, the ureters, urinary bladder and the urethra. The basal portion of the urinary bladder contains the trigone, a triangular area with the apex directed forward. The urethra leaves the bladder at the apex of the trigone. The female urethra has a short-course opening into the vestibule behind the clitoris. The male urethra runs across the prostate and the penis. The renal pelvis, the ureters, bladder and the urethra are lined by a highly specialized and unique epithelium \"\"the urothelium\"\" also known as transitional epithelium. The urothelium is composed of a basal layer of cuboidal cells resting on the basement membrane, intermediate layers, and a superficial layer of cells referred to as umbrella cells that are fairly large and can have multiple nuclei. The urothelium has the unique characteristic of forming a barrier between the toxic urine, preventing leakage, and has the capacity to contract and expand relative to normal physiologic function of the bladder. The trigone in the bladder in 50% of adult women and in some proportion of the male bladder, can be lined by squamous epithelium. Areas of mucus-producing epithelium can also be noted."

Hydrothermal vents were discovered years ago in 1977. Hydrothermal vents are commonly found near volcanically active places, areas where tectonic plates are moving apart at spreading centers, ocean basins, and hotspots. [ 1] Hydrothermal vents exist because the earth is both geologically active and has large amounts of water on its surface and within its crust. Common land types include hot springs, fumaroles and geysers. Under the sea, hydrothermal vents may form features called black smokers. Relative to the majority of the deep sea, the areas around submarine hydrothermal vents are biologically more productive, often hosting complex communities fueled by the chemicals dissolved in the vent fluids. Chemosynthetic bacteria and archaea form the base of the food chain, supporting diverse organisms, including giant tube worms, clams, limpets and shrimp. Active hydrothermal vents are believed to exist on Jupiter 's moon Europa, and Saturn 's moon Enceladus, [2] [3] and it is speculated that ancient hydrothermal vents once existed on Mars.

"text": "Altmetric: 86 Citations: 374More detail Review Hydrothermal vents and the origin of life William Martin, John Baross, Deborah Kelley & Michael J. Russell Nature Reviews Microbiology 6, 805 – 814 (2008)doi :10.1038/nrmicro1991Download Citation Published online:29 September 2008Abstract Submarine hydrothermal vents are geochemically reactive habitats that harbour rich microbial communities. There are striking parallels between the chemistry of the H 2 –CO 2 redox couple that is present in hydrothermal systems and the core energy metabolic reactions of some modern prokaryotic autotrophs. The biochemistry of these autotrophs might, in turn, harbour clues about the kinds of reactions that initiated the chemistry of life. Hydrothermal vents thus unite microbiology and geology to breathe new life into research into one of biology's most important questions — what is the origin of life? Key points Since their discovery, hydrothermal vents have been relevant to concepts that surround the origin of life. At the simplest level, there are two kinds of hydrothermal vents: the hot (approximately 350°C) black smoker type, the chemistry of which is driven by the magma-chamber that resides below ocean-floor spreading zones, and the cooler (approximately 50–90°C) Lost City type, the chemistry of which is driven not by magma, but by a process called serpentinization. Serpentinization is a H 2 -producing geochemical reaction that has been operation in hydrothermal systems for as long as there has been water on the Earth. Its reducing power is sufficient to generate substantial amounts of abiogenic CH 4 and short hydrocarbons in the effluent of some modern hydrothermal vents. In the study of the origin of life, major unresolved issues concern the source of sustained chemical energy and the source of reduced carbon compounds. The CO 2 -reducing geochemistry of modern hydrothermal vents provides a model for our understanding of how such processes might have been possible at the dawn of biochemistry."

What Is The Mid-Ocean Ridge? Ken Mac Donald Professor, Marine Geophysics University of California, Santa Barbara The mid-ocean ridge system is the most extensive chain of mountains on earth, but more than 90% of this mountain range lies in the deep ocean. The mid-ocean ridge wraps around the globe for more than 65,000 km like the seam of a baseball. The average depth to the crest (top) of the ridge is 2500 m, but it rises above sea-level in Iceland and is more than 4000 m deep in the Cayman Trough. Mid-ocean ridges are geologically important because they occur along the kind of plate boundary where new ocean floor is created as the plates spread apart. Thus the mid-ocean ridge is also known as a \"\"spreading center\"\" or a \"\"divergent plate boundary.\"\" The plates spread apart at rates of 1 cm to 20 cm per year. As oceanic plates move apart, rock melts and wells up from tens of kilometers deep."

"text": "Deep sea ecology: hydrothermal vents and cold seeps Until recently, all life on Earth was believed to be dependent on the sun. But in the last 30 years, several new deep-sea ecosystems have been discovered that utilize an alternative source of energy. Hydrothermal vents Deep-sea hydrothermal vents form as a result of volcanic activity on the ocean floor. Water seeps through cracks in the Earth's crust, dissolving metals and minerals as it becomes super-heated from nearby magma. This water - which can reach temperatures of 400°C - eventually rises back through the ocean floor, erupting as a geyser from a hydrothermal vent. The dissolved minerals and metals precipitate on contact with the cold sea water, forming a chimney around the vent. Oases of life... When scientists first discovered these vents in the 1970s, they were amazed to find thriving communities of shrimp, crabs, giant tubeworms, clams, slugs, anemones, and fish. These rare geological features turned out to be oases on the otherwise sparsely inhabited ocean floor, with a biomass equivalent to that of a rainforest. ... like no other on Earth At first glance, the animals inhabiting deep-sea hydrothermal vents may not seem so dissimilar to other deep-sea creatures. But in fact, they are unlike any other life on Earth."

If you work your way backwards through the fossil record, for about 400 million years you would be working back through ages that included organisms living on land. From about 400 million years back to 600 million years, all kinds of complex multicellular life would have been confined to the waters of the earth. From about 600 million years ago back to about two billion years, you'd be looking at rare fossiles of simple eukaryotes, and from two billion back to at least 3-and-a-half billion years, maybe much further, there would be evidence of prokaryotes, including the stromatolites mentioned in a later section. The earth itself is thought to have come together as a planet a bit more than 4-and-a-half billion years ago, but would have been in the finishing-up phase for perhaps three-quarters of a billion years. So where did those first prokaryotes come from? One theory, panspermia or the space seed hypothesis, proposes that life can be found on meteors and other space debris. In fact, some very rigorous tests suggest that there may be bacteria in space, perhaps left from some long-destroyed planet and perhaps capable of surviving a leisurely trip across the universe. If this is the case, then no one could be sure of the conditions under which that otherworldly life would have evolved. This is a possibility, but a bit of a dead end explanations-wise."

Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) flows below the LNADW and reaches down to the seafloor. Formed around Antarctica, the AABW is cold, has low salinity, and high silicate concentration. As it flows north, it is constrained by numerous obstacles on the seafloor. In the basin on the eastern side of the MAR the Walvis Ridge blocks the northward passage. For LNADW and AABW, the Romanche and Chain Fracture Zones (just south of the equator) are the only deep passages in the MAR where interbasin exchange is possible."

But in spite of the extreme conditions, this ocean habitat is home to a variety of bizarre and fascinating creatures. The Abyssal Zone The abyssal zone is the ocean habitat 4,000 to 6,000 meters (13,000 to 20,000 ft) below sea level. This region is defined by complete darkness, extremely high pressure, and average temperatures of 2-3 degrees C (35 degrees F). Reaching down yet farther, oceanic trenches extend to depths exceeding 30,000 feet. Sometimes called the last frontier, the extreme depths of the ocean have only begun to be explored. Oceanic Trenches Oceanic trenches are located at the boundaries where tectonic plates collide. When one plate sinks down beneath an adjoining plate in the process of subduction, a long, narrow and very deep trench may form. Several such trenches are located in the Pacific Ocean.

"text": "\"Hot Springs on the Ocean Floor Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur In many areas of the ocean floor, wherever magma nears the seafloor, or where lava erupts directly at the seafloor surface, hot springs on the seafloor called hydrothermal vents commonly are found. Vent fields are generally associated with submarine (undersea) volcanoes where lava is erupting or preparing to erupt. Hydrothermal vents also are found in areas of the ocean floor that are spreading, such as at mid-ocean ridges, where tectonic plates are being pulled apart. This movement allows the molten magma to rise from deep inside the Earth, superheating the cold ocean water around it. The average temperature of deep-ocean water is only 2°C (36°F). The water coming directly from a hydrothermal vent can reach up to 350°C (662°F) and is rich in dissolved chemicals. The hot spring water forms a plume above the vent, somewhat like smoke rising from a chimney into the air. Temperature-sensing instruments, towed behind research vessels, can detect these hot-water plumes and aid oceanographers in locating hydrothermal vents on the ocean floor. Vent Circulation and Chemistry Seafloor hydrothermal systems influence local ocean chemistry because hydrothermal circulation removes some chemical compounds from sea water, such as magnesium and sulfate, and adds many others. Further, the circulation pattern of sea water within the hydrothermal vent system creates the unique landforms and biological communities found in vent fields."

The effort brought together unprecedented amounts of information on marine species into databases that provide a ‘phone book’ of sorts for the ocean. During the decade of the Census of Marine Life, more than 6,000 potential new ocean species were discovered by the roughly 2,700 participating scientists from more than 80 countries.

Each layer of the web represents a particular role in the movement of organic energy through the community. Despite their unusual nature, faunas based on chemosynthesis are tied together by food webs similar to those of better-known communities. The hydrothermal vent food web below has four layers: Primary producers are the original source of food in the vent ecosystem, using chemical energy to create organic molecules. All other life depends on primary producers, and they have the greatest biomass in the community. Primary consumers get their energy directly from the primary producers by eating or living symbiotically with them. First order carnivores prey on the primary consumers and in turn are eaten by other animals. Top order carnivores eat other consumers and carnivores but are rarely hunted by other creatures. Because they are separated from the primary food production by several layers, top order carnivores have the smallest biomass in the food web."

A hydrothermal vent is a crack or breakage in the Earth’s surface. Water which is heated by the internal heat of the Earth is released from the vent. The source of this water is cold sea water (2 o C) which seeps into the fractures and is heated by the hot magma (1400 o C) found in shallow chambers under the sea floor. There are two general types of hydrothermal vents. One is where water spreads out over a large area. The temperature of this water is between 10 and 20°C. Typical bottom temperature of the ocean is about 2°C. In the other type of vent, the water becomes superheated and is forced back up to the sea floor.

They can be further subdivided into chemoautotrophs, bugs that are able to fix carbon, and chemoheterotrophs that must ingest reduced carbon compounds. Chemoautotrophs are not monophyletic, being found in both the Proteobacteria group of the domain Bacteria, and more widely in the domain Archaea. Thus chemoautotrophy appears to have arisen independently several times over the course of terrestrial evolution. Not surprisingly, many chemoautotrophs are symbionts, trading their chemistry skills for sheltered habitats. They are widespread among the mollusks and nematodes that colonize lightless deep-sea hydrothermal vents, but have also been found in mollusks that inhabit shallower waters.737 Viewspromoted by UC Berkeley Extension Medical microbiology course at UC Berkeley Extension.

The cell membrane is composed mainly of phospholipids, which consist of a hydrophobic (or “water-fearing”) tail and a hydrophilic (or “water-loving”) head group. When phospholipids are placed in water, the molecules spontaneously arrange such that the tails are shielded from the water, resulting in the formation of membrane structures such as bilayers, vesicles, and micelles (illustrated on the right). Earlier forms of life probably needed a membrane compartment for many of the same reasons that modern cells do: to keep molecules that are important for cellular growth and survival readily accessible, and to keep unneeded or potentially harmful molecules outside of the cell. Rather than being made up of phospholipids, however, early membranes may have formed from fatty acids. Similar to phospholipids, fatty acids have a hydrophobic tail and hydrophilic head, and can thus form the same types of structures, such as bilayers, vesicles and micelles, but are structurally much simpler and may have formed more readily in a prebiotic environment."

Hyenas aren't dogs, and don't belong on that comparison list. That video is also full of all sorts of supposition. Did they test multiple individuals of a given breed, or single individuals? It looks like single individuals to me, which says nothing about the breed as a whole, and the results are just about how hard an individual dog is willing to bite. They also bring in a lot of supposition about other breeds. Ultimately, beyond a certain point does it matter? Hyenas have the bite they do because they break open bones to use for food. Other large predators have the bites they do because of the relative size of their prey. The dog has to bite hard enough to do a particular job (break a limb/hold a victim/tear a tendon or sever vertebrae on prey)."

With only four extant species, it is the fifth-smallest biological family in the Carnivora, and one of the smallest in the class Mammalia. [ 2] Despite their low diversity, hyenas are unique and vital components of most African ecosystems. [ 3]Although phylogenetically they are closer to felines and viverrids, and belong to the feliform category, hyenas are behaviourally and morphologically similar to canines in several elements of convergent evolution; both hyenas and canines are non- arboreal, cursorial hunters that catch prey with their teeth rather than claws. Both eat food quickly and may store it, and their calloused feet with large, blunt, nonretractable claws are adapted for running and making sharp turns. However, the hyenas' grooming, scent marking, defecating habits, mating and parental behaviour are consistent with the behaviour of other feliforms. [ 4]Spotted hyenas may kill as many as 95% of the animals they eat, [5] while striped hyenas are largely scavengers. [ 6] Generally, hyenas are known to drive off larger predators, like lions, from their kills, despite having a reputation in popular culture for being cowardly. ["

"text": "\"The word \"\"hyena\"\" is an umbrella term that actually describes three distinct and separate mammalian species, all of which are part of the family Hyaenidae. The three species are the spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta), the striped hyena (Hyaena hyaena) and the brown hyena (Hyaena brunnea). Although not classified as hyenas, the family also has a fourth relative -- the aardwolf (Proteles cristata). Spotted Hyena Diet Spotted hyenas aren't picky eaters in any sense of the word. These omnivores are notorious scavengers that frequently feast on the carrion of previously killed animals, but that isn't the full extent on their diet. Spotted hyenas are adept hunters in their own right, preying on reptiles, birds and even wee bugs. They prefer going after mammals that exceed 40 pounds in weight, according to the Zoological Society of Milwaukee. Some of the larger animals that spotted hyenas prey on include wildebeests, zebras and antelope. They generally hunt in units of between two and five individuals, although sometimes more -- especially when it comes to big prey. Striped Hyena Diet Striped hyenas, like spotted hyenas, are frequent scavengers, with particular penchants for impalas, gazelles, wildebeests and zebras."

Follow 22 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: I am sure on this one- Crocodilians- Have the strongest bite, way stronger than a great white! A 15-16 foot Saltwater crocodile bit down with over 3900 pounds per square inch! The Great White Shark has only 1000 pounds. Hyenas have over 1000 pounds and the lion and tiger have about 1000 pounds. The Nile Crocodile and the Saltwater Crocodile- Because they are the biggest of all Crocodilians and have massive Jaw Structure. The American Alligator also has extreme pressure, about 2100-3000 pounds for males. Source (s): Expert Unnamed · 1 decade ago1 0 Comment Great whites actually do not have that strong a bite. Well not the strongest at least. They simply need to grab on and shake their heads because their razor sharp teeth do a great job shearing chunks of meat off seals and fish.. The hyena has potentially the strongest bite since they have been observed breaking off huge bones of carcasses but they are so timid, they haven't managed to get a reading for the bite power."

Pi, the main character, grows up in an Indian town called Pondicherry. Even as a young boy he has an immense amount of knowledge about animals and their behavior. When Pi and his family decide to move to Canada, his life changes forever. As the ship sinks, he finds himself on a lifeboat with a Belgian tiger, a hyena, and an orangutan and so the journey begins. Later the reader finds that the story of animals is in fact his way of coping with this horrific time in his life. He uses animals, area that he has loved and taken interest in all his life, to represent the characters of the people in the lifeboat with him. As Pi tells the first story, the one “with the animals,” he enlightens the reader on animals’ behaviors that in some ways are extremely savage (398). However, in the second story “with out the animals”, he replaces each animal with a person, yet keeps all the actions and behaviors and revealing how animals- like humans can be (398). This is one of the many unique figurative twists in the novel."

Your rights as a tenant You have many rights as a tenant. These are explained in the Residential Tenancies Act. For example, you have the right to privacy. This means your landlord has to let you know that they are coming, most of the time. They also need a reason to come into your home. For example, your landlord may want to come into your home to: Fix something or check that things are working (like your oven, fridge or air conditioner)Make sure your home is safe (following the laws for safety and standards)Show the home to someone who wants to buy it, or to an insurer or mortgage lender Look over your home before the building is turned into a condominium These are some of the usual reasons that a landlord has for wanting to come into your home."

Long story short, I have a roommate whose boyfriend sleeps over every night. He is not on the lease, and he doesn't pay rent. We don't have any sort of agreement about having him stay there. I've tolerated him for awhile but it is really starting to annoy me. When he is there the door is left unlocked (he doesn't have a key so that is the only way for him to get in and out of the unit). Some of my things have been missing lately, and I am seriously worried about theft in my apartment. I have e-mailed the management office two weeks ago and have received no response. Is there anything I can do to protect my property and to get this guy out of there? Thank you for your help!"

By Dori Einhorn on April 9, 2012 in California Insurance, Dog Liability, Insurance Advice It is important to understand the difference between Therapy Dogs, Service Dogs and Emotional Support Dogs. THERAPY DOGA Therapy Dog is trained to provide comfort and affection to people (other than the owner). These people can be in hospitals, retirement homes, nursing homes, schools, mental facilities, incarcerated, stressful situations (like Hurricane Katrina), etc. Therapy dogs do not provide direct assistance to their owners, nor do they have legal rights to access public areas or travel everywhere. Additionally, the American Disabilities Act does not apply to Therapy Dogs. The job of a Therapy Dog is to make physical contact with people, allowing them to feel comforted by the physical experience. Several of our clients have Therapy Dogs and the use of these dogs is endless. These dogs visit Senior Homes, Hospice Facilities and Schools.

Q: Recently, my landlord sent a notice to all the tenants in the building stating that the rent is due on the first of each month without a grace period. The rent has always been due on the first but he used to give the tenants five days to pay. After several years he changed it to three days to pay.

Property manager Griswold replies: It is fairly common for rental property owners to offer a grace period. Typically, a three- or five-day grace period is offered. It is perfectly legal for a rental property owner to require the rent payment in full on or before the first of the month and to not offer any sort of grace period. Even with a grace period, the rental property owner legally has the right to serve notices regarding nonpayment of rent. I have seen many examples of landlords tightening their policies and rules, including a reduction or elimination of grace periods."

"text": "\"You are here: Landlord Blog » Landlord Articles » Landlord Legal Issues »Landlord’s Right Of Entry It is in fact illegal for a landlord or agent to enter the property without permission from the tenant. Ultimately, a landlord has no right of entry unless the tenant grants them access or the landlord is given permission by the courts. The office of fair trading document oft356 reads as follows:3.32 We would object to a provision giving the landlord an excessive right to enter the rented property. Under any kind of lease or tenancy, a landlord is required by common law to allow his tenants ‘exclusive possession’ and ‘quiet enjoyment’ of the premises during the tenancy. In other words, tenants must be free from unwarranted intrusion by anyone, including the landlord. Landlords are unfairly disregarding that basic obligation if they reserve a right to enter the property without giving reasonable notice or getting the tenant’s consent, except for good reason. Irrespective of what maybe written in the agreed contract between a landlord and a tenant (e.g. a clause that states the landlord is allowed to enter the property without permission), it is still the tenant’s statutory right to live in quiet enjoyment, therefore any clauses that conflicts with that right will not be legally enforceable. A landlord (or anyone acting on behalf e.g. agent) does have the right to ‘reasonable’ access to carry out repairs for which they are responsible, but a written notice at least 24 hours must be served and then the tenant must grant access. Emergency exceptions Section 11 does make it clear that if there is an emergency the landlord can enter without permission. That is the only exception as far as I am aware."

"text": "\"You are here: Landlord Blog » Landlord Articles » Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreements »Tenancy Agreement Break Clauses What are break clauses in Tenancy Agreements? A break clause is a clause in a tenancy agreement that provides both tenant and landlord the opportunity to terminate the tenancy agreement early during the fixed-term (e.g. a 12 month contract gets terminated after 6 months). Essentially, either party can “break” the tenancy before the fixed end date, as long as the correct procedures are followed. However, it’s important to note, even if the tenancy does include a break clause, the Housing Act 1988 prevents the court from awarding possession to a landlord until six months into the tenancy has passed from the beginning of the agreement, unless the landlord is using one of the seventeen statutory grounds for possession, in which case the landlord has rights to evict the tenant and should serve a Section 8 Notice. So, break clauses typically stipulate that they can only be enforced 6 months into the fixed term of a tenancy, no earlier!Here is an example of a break clause (please do NOT use it without seeking legal advice):7.9 Tenancy Break Clause 7.9.1 In the event that the Tenant shall desire to terminate the tenancy hereby created at or at any time after the end of the first six months thereof he shall give the Landlord not less than one months previous notice in writing of such desire and shall up to the time of such determination pay the rent and observe and perform the agreements and obligations on the tenants part.7.9.2 If the Landlord shall desire to terminate the tenancy hereby created at or at any time after the end of the first six months thereof he shall give the Tenant not less than two months previous notice in writing of such desire then immediately upon the expiration of such notice the tenancy hereby created shall cease and be void. Serving notice to break the tenancy The landlord is required to provide at least two months notice to the tenant if they wish to enforce the break clause by serving a Section 21 Notice. So for example, if the tenancy starts on 1st of January, the landlord should serve notice by 1st May (i.e. tenant should have received notice by then), which means the tenant should vacate on July 1st (6 months from when the tenancy began). If the tenant wants to enforce the break clause, they must also give 2 months notice to the landlord by serving a written notice, known as a tenancy surrender notice. It’s also worth noting that if the tenancy wishes to end the tenancy on or after the fixed term, they only need to provide one months’ notice- that is their statutory right. Why the break clause is used Break clauses really are about flexibility for both tenant and landlord."

Most experienced landlords will tell you that the Devil is in the details. The real headaches come when a situation arises that is not addressed in the lease. By that point, the landlord is emotionally involved in the issue, and can’t truly be objective in his/her decision on how to handle it. To help you prevent some headaches, I’ve listed seven of my favorite (and useful) lease clauses in the section below. These clauses have saved me dozens of hours of correspondence, and thousands of dollars in legal drama, simply because I put them in the lease. With that said, I am not a lawyer so you should consult with a licensed local attorney before using these in your own leases.

How can a landlord increase rent? Rent increases are not automatically implemented and can only be requested 90 days prior to the annual renewal. The landlord must give the tenant at least a ninety (90) day written notice of an increase before it can go into effect. A copy of the increase with the tenant's signature must be submitted to WPBHA before the rent increase can take effect. WPBHA does not put a limit on the amount the landlord can request for an increase; however, the new requested rent must be reasonable in comparison with other similar units in the area. Once WPBHA receives the notice of rent increase, a rent comparability study is conducted to determine if the new rent for the unit is reasonable in comparison to unassisted private market units in the area. If it is determined that the rent is not reasonable, WPBHA will contact the landlord and advise him/her of a reasonable rental amount for the unit. If the landlord does not agree to the amount, the Housing Authority and landlord will have to negotiate another acceptable amount or the owner can provide the family with a notice to vacate."

I had gotten my real estate license several years prior, so I had some basic knowledge to build from. We still weren’t 100 percent sure about what we were getting into, but we thought that it would be a great opportunity to build long-term wealth.

However, often landlords need to increase rent over time, to keep up with the level of inflation / cost of living and of course, general greed. It’s actually better to gradually increase rent rather than holding back for a couple of years and then increasing it by a significant amount- that will be a lot more difficult for your tenants to accept. So generally speaking, regular hikes is pretty normal and healthy. So let’s take a look at what, when, where, how, if, and but….

Here are the common problems that a landlord faces when considering the subject of an increase in rent: Fear of confrontation- this shouldn’t really be a deterrent, but understandably, not everyone takes to confrontation like a duck does to water. The suggestion may force the tenant to vacate (which could potentially cost more than increasing the rent)."

Entering your portion of the leased apartment is criminal trespassing, unless the landlord can prove a defense, such as an emergency or your consent. In many states you can have any trespasser in your property arrested if they have been told to leave. When I rented in Maryland, I discovered that you can sue the landlord and be awarded a rent abatement (return) for any month in which the landlord did not follow the rules on entering without permission. Here is a rule of thumb for landlords: If your reason for entering without tenant consent is important enough to break a window, then go ahead a use your key (to avoid unnecessary damage), but be aware that the person inside may be armed, the alarm will go off, the police will arrive and you had better have a better excuse than, \"\"I own this place. \"\" Source (s):consumer advocacy lawyer Nuff Sed · 10 years ago4 0 1 comment Asker's rating No he can't - you pay rent and that gives you the right to the full use of the property."

"text": "Many consumers don't realize the danger they are putting themselves in when they decide to haul a car without a professional. Cars are far more likely to be stolen, broken into, or damaged when they are hauled alone behind an RV or a moving truck. On the other hand, when cars are loaded professionally with several other vehicles and transported via car hauler, the risk of theft and damage is significantly lower. Car haulers aren't just for consumers - auto wholesalers, dealerships and other large-scale automotive companies use car haulers all the time for businesses, sometimes shipping very expensive or customized vehicles for many miles. A car hauling business can appeal to a broad audience, but face many risks on the road including accidents, theft, and damage to the cars in tow. If you want to open a car-hauling or towing business or if you already have an established enterprise, you know you’ll have some expensive cargo to protect from damage or theft. You may be seeking some answers about insuring your car hauler, and you may want to find better coverage or a better rate on the insurance you already own. Either way, getting more knowledge about this product will help you find the insurance you need at a price that makes sense for your budget. Facts About Car Hauling Jobs If you’re just starting to learn about car haulers and insurance needs, a few facts might help you understand your risk factors and how the insurance companies will evaluate you, for example: Car haulers can move vehicles a few miles in the same town, or thousands of miles intra-state in any of the 48 contiguous U. S. states A trained car hauler must learn how to properly load and secure a vehicle to lower the likelihood of property damage or accidents on the road In general, loading wrecked vehicles takes more training and time, as well as additional equipment for safety Your car hauling operation needs to have skilled professionals on board, first and foremost. The knowledge and skills you and your employees have will keep the cargo you carry and other drivers on the roads safe."

Luke Munnell– Jun 3, 2011 SHAREDespite how much we editors seem to enjoy dwelling on the less glorious aspects of life in modern-day print media (salary, schedule, job security, and the like), there are certain perks to the gig. Take the Facebook status update I got to leave after my first day of shooting this story: Photo 2/40 | The Cars Of Fast Five Import Tuner Magazine Spent the day in Hollywood, driving/shooting a LHD-converted JDM Supra, two rocket-proof Armet Gurkhas, two Porsche GT3-RSs (one RHD), three turbo/nitrous 370Zs (one RHD), two RWD-converted ’11 STIs (one RHD), some high-dollar domestics, and a 400hp bank vault with all-wheel steering. Tomorrow’s the GT-R and LFA :) 2 seconds ago Like Comment What wasn’t said was that \"\"driving\"\" usually meant moving them from their back-lot location into the street for a few quick snaps (or steering while a forklift pushed from behind), and that every single one of the cars mentioned was pretty far off of how it appears at first glance. Yes, they were \"\"purpose-built,\"\" but not how we’re used to the term—RWD and RHD conversions weren’t done for drift dominance or show exclusivity, and \"\"turbo/nitrous\"\" usually meant that a fake intercooler was stuffed into their grilles and empty NOS bottles in their trunks. Why? No reason other than to look good on the big screen, after opening credits roll. Photo 3/40 | The Cars Of Fast Five Yes, your favorite action/automotive franchise is back with a fifth installment, aptly titled Fast Five, picking up where Fast and Furious (May, 2009 2NR) left off two years ago—with original characters Brian O’Connor (Paul Walker), Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel), and Mia Toretto (Jordana Brewster) back on the run after the prison-transport-busting closing scene of the fourth film. Upping the reunion ante, Fast adds Han Lue (Sung Kang) predominantly from Tokyo Drift and Vince (Matt Schultz) from the original flick, along with Roman Pearce (Tyrese Gibson) and Tej (Chris \"\"Ludacris\"\" Bridges) from 2 Fast 2 Furious. Also like the previous film, we see more of an action film with cars than a cheesy car movie, with a diverse, respectable field of automotive machinery spanning nearly every school of enthusiasm: JDM, DTM, USDM, exotica, sports car new and old."

"text": "KY No Fault And PIP Insurance Date February 3, 2016Posted by Daniel Hurst Comments 0Personal Injury Protection (PIP) And No Fault Insurance in Kentucky What Are PIP And No Fault Insurance In Kentucky? The Motor Vehicle Reparations Act (MVRA) mandates insurance companies offer Personal Injury Protection (PIP) with all auto insurance polices sold in the State of Kentucky. The purpose of PIP coverage is to allow a driver to have their car insurance company pay their medical bills and other expenses like lost wages without regard for who caused the car wreck. This is why it is often referred to as No-Fault Insurance. For people involved in car accidents that only caused minor injuries often their PIP coverage will make them financially whole. For someone with more serious injuries that were caused by a negligent driver, it allows them to receive the medical treatment they need and receive payment for lost wages while attempting to resolve the matter with the at fault driver’s insurance company. How Much Does PIP Cover In Kentucky? Personal Injury Protection (PIP) is designed to cover medical expenses and lost wages. The statutory minimum insurance that auto insurance companies are supposed to offer is $10,000. However, you can opt to reject your PIP benefits entirely or accept a deductible of up to $1,000 when you are initiating your auto insurance policy."

I own a 2006 E350 4Matic which I purchased in March with 58K miles. I recently hit the 60K mile mark and I am aware that I should have the transmission serviced. The service advisor at my local MB dealership quoted me a price of $350.00 + tax for what he referred to as the 65,000 mile Transmission Service. Questions: Is this a fair price for this service? Is it acceptable to have this type of service performed elswhere? While I am not necessarily looking to have my car serviced at Aamco, I am slightly concerned about being fleeced at the dealership. On the other hand, I've heard many horror stories about less than reputable shops/technicians that have charged customers for services they did not perform. This is the first car that I've purchased in a very long time and the vehicles I've leased, all have complimentary maintenance for just about everything except brakes and tires. All advice welcome."

"text": "\"Cars & Transportation Buying & Selling If I want a 40,000 car, how much should I be making a year? If rent is about 400Update: 400 a month for rent1 following 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The rule of thumb would be about $75,000 a year with very good credit... 700 score or higher. But that's just the average with other bills to include which you don't have other than the $400 rent. Technically, you could get away with making $35,000 a year with your bills and finance a $40,000.00 car with money to spare. I know it can be done because this young guy I hired as a car salesman at my dealership bought a $50,000.00 corvette and he made $44,000.00 last year (his first year) with us. He lives with his older brother though and I doubt he has many bills. He bought the car from us so I know his credit score... 670 which isn't bad, but not excellent. He's had the car for 4 months now and he's making the payments. They have 72 and 84 month financing at a lot of dealerships now, which lowers your monthly payment, but that's a six and seven year loan though. So for you, I would say $30-35k a year with a 650 or better credit score or co-signer and you can afford that $40k car."

This means that the used market will be soft. The status-symbol purchasers don't want a used vehicle and the sort of people who drive up the value of used 911's, Caymen, and Boxsters aren't interested in buying a Cayenne.

Good chance at finding some of the first 924s around that range as well. Other rare models will fetch much more... a genuine lightweight 1973 911RS will generally fetch close to $200k at auction, and cars like Donohue's 917/30 or Le Mans winners and such would go in the millions. Even a typical run of the mill 962 lacking any significant history would command around $300k. Among new cars, the 987 Porsche Boxster would be the least expensive offering, with a price tag around $40k.

"text": "\"Simple Upgrade: Refit Your Pickup With Leather Seats Posted by Mark Williams | June 22, 2015There are only a few modifications you can make to your pickup truck that will completely change its personality; for example, a new suspension, maybe a new supercharger and exhaust, or possibly restyling the entire interior will inject the vehicle with that \"\"like-new\"\" feel. Of course, of those three possibilities, the first two are going to take some significant time and money (not to mention know-how) to get it right, with safety implications a possible concern. The third option — while still providing vivid results — is much less time intensive and likely to cost a lot less. Nobody needs to be told that the average transaction prices of new half-ton pickup trucks are going up. Just witness the effort every truckmaker is exerting to produce more top-of-the-line trim levels. According to Cars.com sales data, average transaction prices have gone up (in some cases several thousand dollars) for each of the half-ton pickups in the last year. Just ask a few people who've recently bought a fully loaded half-ton and you'll find out there's nothing unusual about a $50,000 price tag. And in some cases, the only way to get a leather interior is to opt for one of the top trim packages. It's no accident that in order to get nicer interiors you have to pay for many other features — admittedly some that are very cool — bundled into the higher trim levels that make the truckmakers a great deal of money. So why not take a different path to get the truck interior you want at a more reasonable price?"

This will ensure that the person who hit you is correctly identified.

"text": "Taxability of Scholarships and Grants Williams » Office of Student Accounts » Policies & Procedures » Taxability of Scholarships and Grants The Tax Reform Act of 1986 specifies that scholarship amounts granted … for expenses incurred … are taxable income, if the aggregate scholarship … amounts … exceed tuition and fees (not including room and board), books, supplies, and equipment required for courses of instruction at [an eligible] institution. Any general scholarship or grant aid that is received in a calendar year may be regarded as first applying toward excludable expenses (i.e., tuition, required fees, and required books, supplies, and equipment) even though family resources, loans, or student employment may in fact have initially paid those expenses. You should retain records (e.g., copies of relevant bills, receipts, checks) to document your excludable expenses. If you receive general scholarship or grant aid in excess of the cost of tuition, fees, and books, the excess amount is taxable. In addition, specific scholarships or grants (e.g., health insurance grants) that are directed toward expenses other than tuition, fees, and books are subject to taxation. Other forms of financial aid — loans and student employment — are not covered by these provisions of the tax law. Earnings from student employment, of course, are taxable as wages, as is any summer stipend you may have received from the college. If you had any campus earnings during 2016, a W-2 form will be issued by the Williams College payroll department and will be available to download from your People Soft account. If you had a taxable summer stipend, a 1099 will be issued by the Williams College Controller’s Office. There is a worksheet available on the Office of Financial Aid website that will help you determine the amount of taxable scholarship or grant aid you may have received in 2016."

This return should be labeled \"\"As Amended\"\" on top of each page. The 1040X is a summary of the numbers from the original return and the amended return, and is a comparison of the two. The difference between the two will either result in additional tax due, or additional refund due. On page 2 of the 1040X, you will explain why you are amending your return.jseah114 · 1 decade ago1 0 Comment You cannot just put the figure from the 1098T on the amended retun you have to go back enter all the information on the 1040X from 2 page of the 1040 and then enter the 1098 T figure in the correct line in the tax data screens if you use computer software. you must have the program that you generated the 2005 return from and you also must amend your state return if you live in a taxable state at the same time, if you recieved any government funds that are in box 5 they must be deducted from the tuition that you paid.in box 1 and that is the figure you can take, once you fill it out you mail the 1040x along with a copy of the 1098T to both the IRS and State In the explanation box you have to state why your amending your return, State that you receved the 1098T to use as a deduction for tax year 2005 after you filed your original return.

"text": "\"What would you do to get $2,500 for attending UC? Would you share this with your parents? ( HINT: you should! ) The American Opportunity Tax Credit is a federal program that provides up to $2,500 a year to help offset the cost of your tuition, fees, books, and supplies during your first four years of college. Talk with a tax professional or visit Tax Credit for details, but here are the basics. How do I qualify? If you're like most UC undergraduates, your parents claim you as a dependent and will file for the tax credit on their tax return. They may qualify for it if they earn less than $180,000 a year ($90,000 for single filers) and if you're enrolled as an undergraduate at UC at least half time. If you are not claimed as dependent, you may qualify according to the same income limits. Filers who don't qualify for the American Opportunity Tax Credit may qualify for the Lifetime Learning Tax Credit."

Today: Don't throw that fish away! Here are 10 ideas to give it new life so that you can eat happily ever after. There are some things that we're happy to embrace in their leftover form -- that we may, in fact, intentionally make in large batches and revisit all week. Seafood is a different story. Perhaps you learned this the hard way -- you popped some leftover salmon in the microwave, only to fill your kitchen with a rank, fishy smell. Or maybe, in a fit of Panglossian optimism, you took home some leftover sashimi (why were there leftovers?) and let it get gummy in the back of the fridge because you were too scared to eat it and too guilty to toss it. But it doesn't have to be like that. Fish needn't be a one-night affair, when you have a perfectly lovely evening but must expunge all traces by the next morning."

Better to waste a little money than (maybe) spend more on a visit to the doctor (not to mention the suffering). Sushi (especially those with raw fish topping) MUST be eaten fresh to enjoy; the sliver of flesh atop the rice continue the decaying process at room temperature; storing it in the fridge do not arrest the process altogether, merely delay it. Bacteria is not visible and trust you me, that morsel of fish has it! Unless we can guarantee the level of bacteria is 'safe', we should never keep sushi."

This foolproof technique delivers a perfect medium-cooked fillet that's tender and flaky with deliciously crispy pan-seared skin. ( Image credit: Christine Han)Buying the Salmon When cooking salmon in the oven or on the grill, one large piece of fish works well. But when pan-searing on the stovetop, opt for individual fillets. One six- to eight-ounce fillet per person is a good amount. And if you're buying multiple fillets, don't be afraid to ask your fishmonger to portion them for you. Don't fall for these myths: 3 Common Myths About Buying Salmon You Need to Know The Best Pan for the Job While it's certainly not the only way, we prefer sticking with a large stainless steel or cast iron skillet when cooking pan-seared salmon; make sure it's a pan that's large and wide enough to accommodate the fillets without overcrowding. And because the best results happen when the fish is cooked on a super-hot surface, it's best to skip the nonstick cookware this time around. ( Image credit: Christine Han)The 3 Rules for Super-Crispy Skin Every Time The very best thing about pan-seared salmon (in addition to a no-fuss process and super-quick cook time) is the skin. When cooked any other way, fish skin is, well, kind of unappetizing."

Pan-frying salmon is quick, and sears in the flavors and omega-3 goodness of the fish. An extremely delicious recipe that can be made in under 30 minutes, pan-fried salmon with Thai sauce is great for an everyday dinner entree that even your kids will love. What You'll Need For the Marinade:1/2 cup rice vinegar, or substitute white vinegar or apple cider vinegar1/4 cup honey4 cloves garlic (minced)1 fresh red chili (minced or finely sliced), or substitute 1/2 to 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper1 tablespoon fish sauce1 tablespoon soy sauce1 teaspoon dark soy sauce, or substitute 1 more tablespoon regular soy sauce1 tablespoon minced lemongrass For the Salmon:2 to 4 salmon fillets1 to 3 tablespoons canola oil or other vegetable oil for frying Optional garnish: toasted sesame seeds How to Make It Place all marinade ingredients together in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir as you bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and allow to simmer for 10 minutes, uncovered. The sauce will gradually thicken (the smell of the vinegar is rather pungent as it cooks). When sauce has thickened, place in the refrigerator or freezer to cool for 5 minutes. Place salmon fillets in a flat baking pan so that they aren't piled on top of each other. When the marinade has cooled to warm, spoon 1 tablespoon over each fillet, slathering it over the flesh."

By Mary Straus [Updated February 2, 2018]Whole Dog Journal readers have learned how to identify the best commercial foods when they shop for their dogs. But whether you feed dry kibble or canned food, even the best commercial diets can be improved with the addition of appropriate fresh foods. We know that, when it comes to enhancing an already complete & balanced diet, real foods are often better than supplements . Keep the following things in mind when adding fresh foods to your dog’s diet. Decrease the amount of commercial food your dog gets, so that you don’t increase the total number of calories you feed your dog, which can lead to unhealthy weight gain. Limit the amount of fresh food you add to about 25 percent of total calories consumed; if you want to feed more than that, you need to be careful to feed an appropriate variety of foods in order to keep the diet complete and balanced. Here are some of the best foods you can add to your dog’s diet:1.

This foolproof technique delivers a perfect medium-cooked fillet that's tender and flaky with deliciously crispy pan-seared skin. ( Image credit: Christine Han)Buying the Salmon When cooking salmon in the oven or on the grill, one large piece of fish works well. But when pan-searing on the stovetop, opt for individual fillets. One six- to eight-ounce fillet per person is a good amount. And if you're buying multiple fillets, don't be afraid to ask your fishmonger to portion them for you. Don't fall for these myths: 3 Common Myths About Buying Salmon You Need to Know The Best Pan for the Job While it's certainly not the only way, we prefer sticking with a large stainless steel or cast iron skillet when cooking pan-seared salmon; make sure it's a pan that's large and wide enough to accommodate the fillets without overcrowding. And because the best results happen when the fish is cooked on a super-hot surface, it's best to skip the nonstick cookware this time around. ( Image credit: Christine Han)The 3 Rules for Super-Crispy Skin Every Time The very best thing about pan-seared salmon (in addition to a no-fuss process and super-quick cook time) is the skin. When cooked any other way, fish skin is, well, kind of unappetizing."

"text": "Photo: Iain Bagwell Should you risk that second-day fish? Maybe. Maybe not. Here's how you can know whether your leftover salmon is safe to eat, or if you should send it straight to the garbage. Rebecca Longshore October 20, 2016Whether you cooked up an amazing salmon recipe last night, or you're bringing home a box from a restaurant that was just too much to finish in one sitting, you’re left with a portion of cooked salmon. The next day rolls around, and you have lunch and dinner plans. Finally, you get around to eating it two days after you cooked it, but then you’re left wondering, “Is this still OK to eat?”The answer— YES. In fact, salmon lasts in the fridge for up to 3 days after it has been cooked. According to our Test Kitchen chefs, the fresher the fish is when it’s cooked, the longer it lasts. “ If the fish was in good condition before I cooked it (not stinking, no ammonia, skin was firm), I would be sure to eat it within 3 days,” says Cooking Light Test Kitchen chef Adam Hickman."

A few weeks ago I had some leftover salmon in the fridge that really needed to be eaten before it spoiled. I had roasted a large fillet earlier in the week for dinner and we had only eaten half of it. The other half was taunting me – challenging me to do something good with it. We had already had several healthy meals that week so I was ready for something more indulgent. I wanted pasta!I went on-line in search of recipes for salmon with pasta. However, everything I found called for at least 2 cups of cream and lots of butter. Now don’t get me wrong, I like a good cream sauce just as much as the next girl but swim suit season is coming soon and I was not feeling THAT indulgent. I was about to give up on the endeavor when I remembered that I had a great recipe for shrimp and angel hair pasta in a light cream sauce."

Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Store-Bought Classic hummus is a mixture of garbanzo beans, tahini, garlic, olive oil and lemon juice, but it's not uncommon to add toppings ranging from roasted red pepper to olive tapenade to it. Commercially prepared hummus has about 25 calories and 1.4 grams of fat per tablespoon. So far, it looks like a healthy snack that could easily fit into a balanced diet -- until you realize that some individuals pile a tablespoon of hummus onto each chip they dip, and then go back and do it again and again. Only four dips in this fashion will give you 100 calories, not to mention the calories in the chips themselves.

"text": "Science, Tech, Math ›Science Hemagglutinin and Food Poisoning from Beans Undercooked Beans Can Give You Food Poisoning Share Flipboard Email Print Eating raw or undercooked beans can give you a form of food poisoning. Red kidney beans are particularly dangerous. Dorling Kindersley, Getty Imagesby Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph. D. Updated March 08, 2017Here's a fun fact: Eating soaked raw or undercooked beans can result in food poisoning. The culprit is a plant lectin known as phytohaemagglutinin or simply hemagglutinin, a chemical known to cause agglutination of mammalian red blood cells and to disrupt cellular metabolism. According to the US Food and Drug Administration, phytohaemagglutinin is found in many types of beans, but red kidney beans contain the highest levels of hemagglutinin. White kidney beans contain a third as much toxin while broad varieties of beans contain 10% as much hemagglutinin as red kidney beans. This is still plenty, since you only need to eat 4-5 undercooked red kidney beans to get sick. Bean Poisoning Symptoms Symptoms start to appear within 1 to 3 hours after consuming the beans and include nausea and vomiting followed by diarrhea and, in some cases, abdominal pain. Although the symptoms may be severe enough to warrant hospitalization, they resolve spontaneously within a few hours."

"text": "\"PALEO ZUCCHINI HUMMUSHummus is a Middle Eastern sauce/dip that is traditionally made with ground chickpeas. This recipe uses zucchini instead to make it paleo-friendly, and includes olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, seasonings and tahini. Tahini is a paste made from ground sesame seeds. If you do not eat seeds then you can substitute a nut butter for the tahini, such as almond or pecan butter. Most tahini will separate in the container, so make sure to give it a good stir before using. Look for an organic tahini that does not have any preservatives or additives...you know, the nasty stuff we try to avoid. You can reduce the amount of tahini and garlic in the recipe if you like your hummus to have a more \"\"mild\"\" flavor. I like mine strong so I have extra garlicky breath for the rest of the day. It helps keep strangers from getting too close and you get a delicious snack. That is a win-win in my book!"

"text": "Question: Can I eat hummus as part of a low-calorie diet? Can I eat hummus as a low-calorie food? Answer: The popular middle eastern dip or spread, hummus, is generally made from just a few simple, and rather healthy ingredients. The main component of humus, which gives it its bulk, is finely mashed or pureed chickpeas. Healthy doses of olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and tahini are generally added to the flavor and smooth the dip into a spreadable, delicious dip. Mixed together, does this make for a low-calorie food? Not necessarily, but that does not mean that hummus should not be a part of a healthy, low-calorie food plan. If you look at the nutritional facts on a commercially prepared hummus, you will find that, per tablespoon, hummus contributes around 25 calories. This does not seem like a lot of calories, but most of us would probably eat several tablespoons if using as a dip. So, you may easily eat upwards of 100 calories or more to enjoy a serving of hummus."

There are three requirements, as follows: You should hold a Bachelor's degree or its global equivalent (this is a 4-year degree, not a 3-year degree). You should have 4500 hours of project management experience in not less than 3 years. You should undergo a 35-hour project management training.

Finally, we’ll look at a couple of representative examples to give you the flavor of the options. For certificate programs, PMI’s Registered Education Provider (REP) status is important. For degree programs, as we will discuss, PMI’s accreditation program is important. Those who want to learn project management for the first time and don’t yet qualify to take the PMP® exam may find fertile ground in the available project management certificate programs. A growing number of schools are now offering degrees in project management. Indeed, PMI now accredits degree programs. Many schools offer both certificate and degree options."

To become an effective trainer below are the points you can keep in mind: PMP credential holder : Full process should be known as well as experienced. I have personally not seen anyone who is not PMP holder becoming trainer at any point. Hope either you are already holding PMP or planning to take it up shortly PMI Basics/Though process: PMI follows same mechanism for all its certifications. Knowledge on different spectrum of certification offered by PMI, Certification Continuation requirements, Certification's prerequisites etc.. should be well known PMI Chapters: PMI has local chapters and there are lot of activities happens in the chapters like conferences, knowledge sharing sessions, volunteer opportunities. You need to find your chapter and start participating and if possible speaking on Project Management topics REPs in area: PMP training contact hours are provided by multiple institutes and many of them are Registered with PMI.

As I speak to audiences about the importance of soft skills and emotional intelligence in project management, inevitably I’m asked my opinion on the value of a certification from the PMI (Project Management Institute) such as the PMP (Project Management Professional.) This topic is very polarizing in our professional community. The camps generally divide into : 1) Those who sought the PMP on their own and found it to be an excellent training opportunity; 2) Those who were required by their employer or felt pressured by the job market to obtain it; and, 3) Those who are active resisters or were just never required to get one. First off, let me state clearly that I do not have a PMI certification. Heresy, you say? Well, the reality is that the PMP certification gained prominence at a time when I was already firmly established in my career. My employers, knowing my skills and track record, never pushed for me to obtain it. So is there a value in having the PMI certification?"

"text": "813 Comments As a PMP (Project Management Professional) certified project manager, I frequently get asked a question that all PMPs have asked themselves at some point during their careers… is it worth getting PMP certified? Going through the process of taking the dreaded PMP examination is costly and complicated, and requires a great deal of preparation. Is it worth jumping through these hoops to attain PMP certification? In this post I’ll walk you through some of the pros and cons of getting PMP certified. Please note that these pros and cons are only my opinions (though most are based on facts); many other project managers have their own recommendations on whether or not PMP certification is worth attaining, and they may be different from my own. I welcome any input that other project managers reading this post might have. PMP certification can beef up a resume, and can make the difference between getting a job as a project manager and being passed over in favor of someone else (likely someone who is PMP certified). What’s more, many employers require PMP certification of their project managers, and will not hire non-certified project managers. Having the credential will certainly make it easier to find a job as a project or program manager. During the application process for one particular job I was chastised by a professional recruiter, someone who goes through hundreds of resumes each week, for not having “PMP” beside my name at the very top of my resume (I had it listed further down, under “Professional Certifications”)."

"text": "Why PMP, CSM, PMC and other Project Management Certifications Matter By Mike Russell – November 22, 2013 Posted in: Agile PM, CCPM, Lean Six Sigma, Scrum, Waterfall PMIn any industry or professional setting, certifications and credentials are a great way to demonstrate to potential employers that you have a basic knowledge of your profession and industry. The Project Management Professional ( PMP ) from the Project Management Institute, Certified Scrum Master ( CSM ) from the Scrum Alliance, and the PMC from Pragmatic Marketing are three of the certifications that many hiring managers are looking for right now. There are others of course — the Lean Six Sigma belts from IASSC is one that comes to mind. But increasingly, if you do not have at least one certification in Project Management, it is nearly impossible to get past recruiting managers and other gatekeepers. I think in the next couple of years, this trend is going to get worse and soon at least one certification will be required. Back in 2010 CIO Magazine wrote an article called “ Why Project Management Certifications Matter ” that even then discussed the priority that IT Managers and Directors were placing on the PMP certification. Getting your PMP cannot demonstrate your effectiveness as a project manager, but it does show potential employers that you are experienced and serious about your profession. To get your PMP, if you have a 4 year degree you need 4,500 hours of experience engaged in project management. If you do not have a degree, then that threshold increases to 7,500 hours. You also are required to take a 32 hour certification class from an approved vendor AND pass a really rigorous exam that was written by PMI at a testing center."

Project Management Institute (PMI)® offers the world’s most sought after professional certification, Project Management Professional (PMP)®.

They will ask you to break the hours down into five process areas (initiating, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and closing) and then into various process activities. I wouldn't worry too much about it. I'm a software developer by experience, so I had to scrounge various projects to get my 4500 hours. I was also audited, so I know that they accepted my experience. Once you enter your hours, if you get audited, you will get a letter to sign for each project, from the manager of that project (or co-worker, or subordinate)."

"text": "\"Do You Qualify for the PMP® Certification Many people wonder if they qualify for the PMP certification. To answer this question, always focus on whether you were working to create something new, be it a product, service, process, system, etc. If the answer is yes, it will almost certainly qualify. Disregard your job title completely - your role is what matters. In addition, you will need to examine the type of work you have done, the number of hours, and the overall duration of your work experience. This article examines the requirements for you in more detail, so you can be sure that you are qualified to receive the PMP certification. What types of work qualify? In the vast majority of cases, PMI seems to accept that the experience you have submitted is in fact project related, without further scrutiny. But this does not mean you can simply misstate your experience and hope nobody calls you on it. For one thing, this would be a serious ethical violation and would likely bar you from ever obtaining a PMP designation (or any other PMI credential for that matter)."

"text": "What are the Benefits of a PMI Membership? By Fahad Usmani 47 Comments I always advise that my blog visitors join the PMI as soon as they decide to become a PMP. In this blog post I am going to explain to you the many benefits of having a PMI Membership. I became a member of PMI as soon as I was aware of its benefits, and at the same time, I also joined my local chapter—PMI Arabian Gulf Chapter, Kuwait. I joined the PMI one year before passing the PMP exam, and during this one year, I enjoyed many benefits from the PMI membership. Before I start discussing the benefits of a PMI membership, let’s have a quick look at the types of memberships offered by the PMI. PMI offers three types of membership. These memberships are as follows: Individual Membership: This membership is for anyone who wants to join the PMI. The initial joining fee is 139 USD and then you have to pay 129 USD for a yearly renewal. Student Membership: This membership is for students."

"text": "THE MANLEGENDARY EVELEvel Knievel was born Robert Craig Knievel on Oct. 17, 1938 in Butte, Montana. After a police chase in 1956, in which he crashed his motorcycle, Knievel was taken to jail on a charge of reckless driving. When the night jailer came around to check roll call, he noted Robert Knievel in one cell and William Knofel in another. Knofel was well known as “Awful Knofel” (“awful” rhyming with “Knofel”) so Knievel began to be referred to as Evel Knievel (“Evel” rhyming with “Knievel”). He chose this misspelling because of his last name and because he didn’t want to be considered “evil”. And thus the legend was born…“THE PEOPLE DON’T COME TO SEE ME DIE. THEY COME TO SEE ME DEFY DEATH.”Death-defying feats have fascinated mankind for centuries. From sword swallowers to human cannonballs, the daredevils of history have risked life and limb to draw a crowd. Few performers gained lasting fame. But in the 1970’s a motorcycle-jumping stuntman from Butte, Montana vaulted this tradition from its sideshow origins to unthinkable heights of popularity and influence."

But before you go, you need to make sure you have the right documents. In addition to a passport, business travelers will need a visa for a trip to mainland China. To you navigate the process, we've put together this overview. The whole application process may take about a week, and that's not including the time required to hear back on your application. For an extra fee, you can select same day or rush services. It's good to make sure you're planning in advance for any trip. Note: you do not need a visa for trips to Hong Kong of durations under thirty days. For business travelers going to Hong Kong, it may be possible to apply for a visa there. Simply ask your hotel concierge for assistance."

Includes two airport lounge passes per year. Minimum spend and conditions apply. Click here.by Chris Chamberlin | April 5, 2016Scooping up a local SIM card in China can prove a difficult task, not only thanks to the language barrier but also because some retailers, even those at the airports, surprisingly don’t always keep pre-paid SIM cards in stock. What’s more, some unscrupulous sellers insist you “purchase a phone number” during the process – something that’s actually already included with your SIM pack – or strongly upsell ‘lucky numbers’ which have an array of 8s and a price tag to match. Fortunately though, Aussie retailer Sim Corner lets you bypass all the hassle by pre-ordering your Chinese SIM card before leaving Australia, or indeed, grabbing one on your way thorough Sydney and Melbourne international airports. Buy your China Unicom SIM at Sim Corner Sydney Airport... Its pick of the bunch – and ours, for a stress-free connection – is China Unicom’s A$39.99 pre-paid SIM card, but do note: as is standard in China, what’s included with your plan varies based on the date you activate it, and in any case, is only valid for the remainder of the current calendar month. Flick the switch between the 1st and the 15th of any month and you’ll get 120 minutes of calls to Chinese mobiles and landlines, 60MB of starter 3G data and a total of ¥74 (A$15) in flexible credit. That credit can be used as you wish, such as for an extra 500MB of data (¥30), 10 text messages to Australian numbers back home (¥0.80 each) and 10 minutes of international calls to the same (¥3.60/minute). That’s on the lighter side for keeping in touch with family or the office in Oz, but if your contacts use Apple i Message – where texts are transmitted as data instead of traditional SMSs – or you’re mostly calling your local clients and suppliers in China, it should be all you’ll need."

Did you know that it’s possible to become an agent even if you don’t invest a large amount of capital? Perhaps the best area to start is food. There will always be a market for food, so it will be much easier to find companies that sell different kinds of products. Regardless of your location, you can find companies that manufacture products locally and never for export. If the products are of high quality and can pass for export, you can act as the export agent."

"text": "How To Find China Wholesale Suppliers And Import Direct From Chinese Factories Steve C Click here to learn how to start your own online store When it comes to finding products to sell online, your profit margins are amplified by how low you can drive your sourcing costs down. For example, the typical retail markup for an online store is 4X. As a result, for every dollar it costs you to source an item, you need to charge 4 dollars!On the flip side if you can shave a dollar off your costs, then you can potentially mark down your prices by 4 dollars or pocket the extra profit!Because labor is an order of magnitude cheaper in China, it’s in your best interests to source your goods from Chinese factories. Today, I will teach you where to find China wholesale suppliers and what to expect when importing direct from Chinese factories. This post will be broken down into 3 sections Where To Find China Wholesale Suppliers What To Expect When Importing From China How To Prepare Your First Shipment Canton Fair One of the best ways to find Chinese vendors is by attending the Canton Import And Export Fair. The Canton Fair is held in Guang Zhou, China twice a year (Usually during the end of May and the beginning of November) and is one of the largest sourcing shows (if not the biggest) in the world. It easily trumps any trade show in the US and it’s so large that they have to split it into 3 phases. The first phase covers electronics, the second phase covers consumer goods, gifts and home decor and the third phase covers textiles, garments, shoes and office supplies. To give you an idea of the magnitude of the fairgrounds, the Canton Fair is equivalent in size to 218 football fields. Crazy right? Now if you’ve ever tried to find a Chinese vendor or factory using an online directory like Alibaba, you probably know how time consuming it can be."

Weather conditions can't shut it down-at least, not for long. Even the catastrophic events of 9/11 couldn't derail it. It, of course, is the travel industry, and while the economy and unforeseen incidents that tragic day in September have tended to slow down the pace of travel, the industry continues to enjoy robust activity despite challenges that are enough to send other industries into tailspins.

Read More... Published October 10, 2013Despite all the reasons you’ve very likely heard about the benefits of learning another language – good for your degree, good for your travels, good for your career – some people seem to think that being multilingual isn’t all that important anymore. We’re here to remind you that not only is it important, it may very well be necessary. It’s true that there are more and more people learning and speaking English these days. In fact, English is, according to some measures, the most widely spoken language in the world, the de facto lingua franca. Approximately 1.5 billion people around the world speak English, whether as their native tongue or as a foreign language, and this number is still growing. As Chinese universities (for example) offer more instruction to Chinese students in English, study abroad administrators and their students will start to de-emphasize language learning on programs. The same phenomenon is happening in all parts of the world. I think the natural trend will be to overlook the incredible benefits of language learning, and to more quickly embrace programs that require very little in terms of language. This is what we have to work against. Mark Lenhart, Executive Director of CET Academic Programs But why limit yourself?"

"text": "How Much Is a Mile Worth? Value of a Delta Skymile March 5, 2013 0What is a Delta Skymile worth? This is the third in our What is a Mile Worth series. For the prior posts, please see How Much Is A Mile Worth? Value of United Airlines Miles and How Much is a Mile Worth? Value of American AAdvantage Miles. As readers of this blog know, I'm not a fan of Delta Skymiles and don't have any of them. But of course everyone's situation is different, and a number of the clients who contact me for Award Bookings do have a good number of Skymiles they want to use for an award booking. It's helpful to figure out the value of your miles and points for yourself rather than relying on someone else's calculation, because you're likely to have different travel preferences and assign a different value to a particular award ticket compared to someone else (possibly even compared to your spouse or partner, but that's for another post). I should mention that the value you'd assign to a ticket is not what you would actually have to pay (since most of these business and first class tickets retail for more than most of us would be willing to pay) but rather what you would be willing to pay in cold hard cash if a ticket was available for that price and no miles and points options existed for that route."

My driver slows the car to a halt and I wind down the window and stick my camera out. Click. Then on we go. It doesn’t have to be like this. I’m at Anuradhapura in the north of Sri Lanka. This city was the religious and political capital of the country for about 1300 years from the 3rd century BC. The remains of its temples, palaces and public buildings are scattered across fields and amongst the more modern urban environment that has appeared in its place. Anuradhapura is a relatively popular tourist site, albeit not quite as famous as some others further south."

Once they are over the initial culture shock and no longer get all flustered when people gob on the floors of local restaurants, it's pretty much plain sailing. However, too many teachers come over believing that they are suitably qualified and have an appropriate visa with which to teach in China, when in fact this is not the case. Below are a number of scenarios to be aware of. If any of them bear any similarity to your circumstances, you really ought to give serious reconsideration about the school you are planning to join, or are currently working with. It is worth remembering that whoever sponsors a foreign work visa is responsible for that foreign person during their stay in china. If a teacher runs into any kind of trouble with the law, the sponsoring organisation will be contacted by the police and the Public Security Bureau will be notified and the school may be liable for any problems that occur with any of it's foreign employees. Please note that anything on this website does not represent any form of legal representation and nor should the information be relied upon as any kind of official advice. It's not.

Substitute teachers are responsible for maintaining established rules, procedures and policies of the classroom, school, and district. Teaching can be a challenging profession, since working with young people can be tiring and sometimes frustrating. These professionals work during regular business hours, but they may also have to complete some work after school hours. Substitute teachers work on an as needed basis and their hours may not be consistent. However, it is possible for substitution to lead to a more permanent position. Specific requirements for substitute teachers vary by state and individual school districts. Degree Level High school diploma minimum; bachelor's degree often required Licensure or Certification Districts may require certification Experience Previous teaching experience sometimes required Key Skills Flexibility; patience; instructional know-how; verbal and written communication skills; familiarity with basic office equipment such as printers, copiers, and various smart devices Annual Median Salary (2016)* $23,000 (specialized skills and previous experience can increase this amount by as much as 13%)Sources: U.

Whether you’re a retiree, recent college graduate or a stay-at-home parent looking to return to the workplace, you must follow certain steps to obtain a substitute teaching license in Pennsylvania. While the demand for substitute teachers is high, applicants must possess specific certifications and clearances on both a federal and state level before they can substitute teach. Outlined below are the requirements to become a sub in the Keystone state. Education Contrary to popular belief, prospective substitute teachers do not need a Bachelor’s in Education. School districts within Pennsylvania accept a variety of college graduates with a bachelor's degree in any academic discipline from an accredited college or university. While experience is desirable, it is not mandatory, which is good news for the recent college grad or professional that is looking to switch to a new career in teaching. Substitute Teacher Services offers an exclusive, online Guest Teacher Program for individuals with a 4-year degree to prepare for teaching in the classroom as a day-to-day substitute teacher. The first of its kind program in Pennsylvania, it’s designed to enhance the abilities of guest teachers to assure the education and well-being of students.

By Bryan Toporek on July 14, 2010 10:26 AMIf college professors hold students 100 percent accountable for their own learning, shouldn't K-12 teachers ease students into taking responsibility for their own education? That's the question Daniel Willingham, a psychology professor from the University of Virginia, asks in a guest post on the Washington Post 's Answer Sheet blog. Willingham notes that among his university colleagues, the professors aren't concerned with whether students show up to class or study. \"\" Most professors figure that their job is to teach well. Whether the student learns or not is up to him or her,\"\" he says. Contrastingly, Willingham believes that \"\"almost nothing is done\"\" in K-12 education to prepare students for this shift in accountability.

Some administrators are questioning the practice of unemployment payouts to substitute teachers -- a small but present contributing factor to the general unemployment cost hike. Connecticut law doesn't distinguish between a full-time teacher and a substitute teacher -- both are under the umbrella term of \"\"educational employee,\"\" according to David Ricciuti, a spokesman for the Connecticut Department of Labor. This means that, like full-time teachers, substitute teachers are eligible for unemployment compensation during periods when school is in session and work is not available to them. Related Stories Local school administrators question unemployment for substitutes\"\"It's like you agreed to work part-time at Stop & Stop ,\"\" Ricciuti said. \"\" If you don't get hours for a week you are employed, you are going to be eligible. \"\" Though only one substitute teacher at New Canaan Public Schools currently receives unemployment benefits -- totaling about $30 per week -- Steven Swerdlick, New Canaan Public Schools' assistant superintendent for human resources, said the law \"\"just doesn't seem right. \"\"\"\" People agree to be a substitute knowing it's not going to be work every day, and then turn around and ask for unemployment,\"\" he said, adding, \"\"We struggle with the idea that substitutes can collect unemployment at all.

If you live in Alberta, most public school districts will pay around $180 to $200 a full day of substituting, or a little more. If you sub for just the morning, or just the afternoon, that's half a day, so half the pay. When a school district is based in a larger town, the sub pay per day usually goes up. If you were to search Google for the school district you want to apply and substitute for, they should have the information on how much they would pay you, on their websites. There is an agreement between school districts and the Alberta Teachers' Association on how much this pay is, but school districts have some \"\"wiggle room\"\", because smaller towns within a large district, actually pay you less per day.

In some states teachers are eligible to receive unemployment benefits during school breaks, other states have strict eligibility requirements and still others do not allow teachers to collect benefits. The interested party might wish to contact their teacher's union representative or the division of state government that handles such matters in their state of residency. In Canada, it depends on whether or not you have a continuing contract. If you do, you can't draw unemployment; you are expected to prepare for it. Even if you don't have a continuing contract (but do expect work again in Sept.) there is a 5- 6 week waiting period, so it's not really worth it. I find it frustrating that the states differ.

"text": "How To Give A Warning That Curbs Misbehavior By Michael Linsin on January 4, 2014A warning is a courtesy you provide your students. It’s a declaration of free grace you offer by letting them know that you are aware a rule has been broken. But that no real consequence is forthcoming. It’s a consequence only in the sense that they are one step away from being sent to time-out and removed from participating in the classroom they enjoy being part of. Beyond your acknowledgement, nothing else happens. If they proceed through the rest of the day without breaking another rule, then the warning is forgotten—wiped away the moment the dismissal bell rings. Done correctly, your students will see it this way too. They’ll be grateful to receive a simple warning and be eager to tread carefully the rest of the day. In this way, the warning will do its intended job and curb future misbehavior. The mistake teachers make when giving warnings is that it doesn’t look or feel anything like this."

Professionals in each field use similar skills to achieve similar results, but the methods they use, and how they pursue their goals, are different. Many medical billers are also medical coders, and vice versa. The two skill sets overlap because both professions involve the translation of medical documentation into standardized codes to communicate medically necessary information. Medical billers focus on providing accurate, timely reimbursement based on the codes used. Medical coders are less concentrated on reimbursement issues. Their role is to provide the most complete picture possible of a medical encounter, leaving the money-related aspects to the billers. While both professions strive to the adhere to the guidelines, statutes, regulations, and to contractual obligations to provide accurate information, medical coders usually deal in a wider variety of codes, adhering more to the ideal of coding theory. Medical billers are more knowledgeable about commercial insurance requirements, what codes can be billed, claim submission rules, and how to assemble a clean claim. Accurate Medical Coding Medical code is the foundation of both professional activities."

They analyse comprehensive data concerning patients’ medical history, illnesses, injuries, test results, treatment procedures from files and records. Specific alphanumeric codes are then designated to the information based on a standard and official coding system. The responsibility of a medical coder requires accuracy and thoroughness. The physicians and the employing healthcare facilities depend so much on accurate coding for comprehensive patient information, updated documentation related to the healthcare facilities’ transactions, and correct billing and payment record.

Coders continue to struggle with coding for drug delivery implants. Although CPT ® did not make many changes to these codes for 2012, coders must understand how to correctly report drug delivery implant codes. In addition, coders also need to understand what the physician must document in order for coders to report these services correctly. CPT denotes these codes:11981 – Insertion, non-biodegradeable drug delivery implant11982 – Removal, non-biodegradeable drug delivery implant11983 – Removal with reinsertion, non-biodegradeable drug delivery implant These codes appear very straightforward for coders to use, but some implants used in surgery are now biodegradeable, or “absorbable” by the body. The patient’s body will not absorb a non-biodegradeable implant, and at some point in time, a physician will need to remove it from the body. Uses of drug delivery implants In the orthopedic specialty, physicians commonly use drug delivery implants. The implants range in size from a tiny ”antibiotic bead” to a total knee prosthesis spacer made with antibiotic-impregnated cement. In some cases the physician will place a drug delivery implant with pain medication during surgery to lessen post-operative pain, but then will remove the implant in the office as part of the post-operative care services."

Consider the following scenario: A patient presents with pneumonia on admission. Over the course of the hospital stay, the patient is treated for the diagnosis, which later resolves itself. Following discharge, the attending physician dictates the discharge summary, noting the patient’s condition as bronchitis without mentioning pneumonia. It’s a common occurrence, according to Joann Agin, RHIT, regional manager of data quality with Missouri-based Carondelet Health, who points out that discharge summaries should accurately reflect all confirmed diagnoses and all care administered during a patient’s hospital stay without introducing any new information. In the case mentioned above, the physician neglected to reference pneumonia in the discharge summary, causing the coder to inaccurately code for bronchitis even though documentation throughout the chart reflected treatment for pneumonia. An outside reviewer eventually uncovered the error, and while in this case the bottom line worked in the hospital’s favor, industry professionals warn that more often than not, such mistakes can have a negative impact on compliance and revenue capture.“ [ An accurate discharge summary] has always been the key to reimbursement … and it’s been the key to a good record,” explains Karol Richkus, RHIT, director of HIM consulting with Precyse Solutions, LLC, who adds that recovery audit contractor audits have brought the importance of the discharge summary to the forefront. “"

The bill now moves to President Obama, who is expected to sign it into law. The bill was passed 64-35 at 6:59 pm ET on Monday, March 31. The bill, H. R. 4302, Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014, mainly creates a temporary “fix” to the Medicare sustainable growth rate (SGR). A seven-line section of the bill states that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) cannot adopt the ICD–10 code set as the standard until at least October 1, 2015. The healthcare industry had been preparing to switch to the ICD-10 code set on October 1, 2014. In a statement on the Senate vote, AHIMA officials said they will work to clarify outstanding questions raised by the delay and continue to work with government officials to implement ICD-10.“On behalf of our more than 72,000 members who have prepared for ICD-10 in good faith, AHIMA will seek immediate clarification on a number of technical issues such as the exact length of the delay,” said AHIMA CEO Lynne Thomas Gordon, MBA, RHIA, CAE, FACHE, FAHIMA. “ AHIMA will continue our work with various public sector organizations and agencies such as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT, and the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) along with our industry partners such as the ICD-10 Coalition so that ICD-10 will realize its full potential to improve patient care and reduce costs. These are goals that AHIMA and other healthcare stakeholders and our government leaders all share. ”Since the transition to ICD-10 “remains inevitable and time-sensitive because of the potential risk to public health and the need to track, identify, and analyze new clinical services and treatments available for patients,” AHIMA said in a statement the organization will continue to lend technical assistance and training to stakeholders as they are forced to navigate the challenge of preparing for ICD-10 while still using ICD-9."

HCPCS was established in 1978 to provide a standardized coding system for describing specific items and services. Initially, facilities voluntarily used HCPCS codes, but with the implementation of HIPAA in 1996, facilities began to report HCPCS for transaction codes.

Medical coders with the proper skills should be able to secure a well-paying job. What Medical Coders Do Many diseases, medical procedures and medications have lengthy, hard-to-spell names. By assigning a code to each of these, physicians, insurance companies and laboratories have a standard point of reference. Medical coders translate written diagnoses or treatments into the appropriate codes. Most use special software to expedite coding, which in turn allows claims to be submitted faster. They are also responsible for maintaining patient confidentiality by keeping both electronic and written records secure. Important Skills for Medical Coders Coders need to be very detail-oriented to ensure that records are accurate and complete. They must have the ability to understand the written diagnosis or explanation so that they can determine the proper codes to use."

These aides also assist teachers with paperwork and student supervision. Some paraprofessionals work with general-education students, while others devote their careers to students with special needs. All good paraprofessionals share certain qualities, no matter what student group they choose. Comfortable With Children Paraprofessionals need to be interested in working with children and helping students achieve. They need to be friendly, able to put themselves in the child's shoes and sensitive to students' needs. Working with children requires patience. Patience is necessary when a student is misbehaving, but paraprofessionals must also be patient when the child is behaving appropriately and refrain from interfering unnecessarily. Team Player A paraprofessional is only one member of the educational team. They must be able to function as a team member, cooperating with others and participating in joint sessions meant to enhance their students' school experience."

A paraprofessional may qualify for employment by meeting a rigorous standard of quality and be able to demonstrate, through a formal State or local assessment, knowledge of and the ability to assist in the instruction of reading, writing and mathematics. Although the formal education requirements are well defined, the assessment component was left for the State and local educational units to resolve. In order to provide assessment options available for paraprofessionals, the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction created a committee of various stakeholders and practitioners to examine the issue. Serious consideration and attention were given to meeting the needs of the schools, students and paraprofessionals. Factors such as available human, material and financial resources were considered, and there was an expressed desire to provide school units and paraprofessionals with options to meet the criteria for employment."

The purpose of the GACE assessments is to help the Georgia Professional Standards Commission (Ga PSC) ensure that candidates have the knowledge and skills needed to perform the job of an educator in Georgia’s public schools. These computer-delivered assessments have been developed by the Ga PSC and Educational Testing Service (ETS). All GACE assessments are aligned with the state standards for the P–12 curriculum and with state and national content standards. Each GACE test was developed with diverse representation of Georgia educators from across the state, including the participation of committees of Georgia educators, educator preparation faculty, and other content and assessment specialists, including individuals from school systems, local schools, institutions of higher education (public and private), and other stakeholders. In other words, each GACE assessment was developed by Georgia educators to measure competency on what is taught in Georgia’s P–12 classrooms. Who Takes the GACE Assessments and Why? The GACE assessments are taken by individuals seeking admission to an educator preparation program, seeking educator certification in the State of Georgia, and/or seeking to become highly qualified in a core academic subject. Examinees should refer to the Ga PSC website if they have questions about which tests they need for their individual certification."

Virginia’s licensure regulations – with their emphasis on content knowledge – require new teachers to far exceed the federal highly qualified standard. Under limited circumstances, some special education teachers and teachers not new to the profession may demonstrate that they are highly qualified through Virginia’s High Objective Uniform State Standard of Evaluation (HOUSSE). HOUSSE – Virginia Requirements for Teachers Not New to the Teaching Profession to Meet the Definition of Highly Qualified in Federal Core Academic Areas and Special Education (PDF)This option is available to the following teachers under the circumstances described: New special education teachers who teach multiple core subjects, and who are highly qualified in either mathematics, language arts, or science at the time they are hired, have two years to use HOUSSE (or to demonstrate content area competency through appropriate rigorous testing or coursework). Teachers who teach multiple secondary subjects in school districts eligible to participate in the Small, Rural School Achievement program and are highly qualified in at least one core academic subject at the time of hire have three years to demonstrate competence in other subject areas. Teachers who come to the United States from other countries to teach on a temporary basis have three years to use HOUSSE. Fully licensed teachers not new to the profession who are returning to teaching after an extended absence have up to two years to become highly qualified using HOUSSE. Multi-subject teachers not new to the profession who are already highly qualified in one subject area, but who have been reassigned to a different subject area have up to two years to become highly qualified using HOUSSE. Special education teachers new or not new to the profession teaching one or more academic subjects only to children with disabilities held to alternative achievement standards may have up to two years to become highly qualified using HOUSSE."

"text": "\"Print this page How to Request a One-to-One Paraprofessional for Your Child by Wayne Steedman, Esq. When parents request a \"\"one-to-one\"\" aide or paraprofessional for their child with a disability, they are often frustrated by the school district's response. Even when the district agrees to their request, parents may be dissatisfied with the results. Parents need to know what they want, how to get it, and the outcomes they expect. What is a One to One Aide? As an old saying goes, \"\"It is never safe to assume.\"\" This warning also applies to assumptions about one-to-one aides. Does the child need one individual who is assigned to work with the child during the entire day? Can the child be successful if several individuals rotate during the day? If the child's IEP does not specify that one individual will be assigned to work with the child, the result can be unsatisfactory."

Slavin a b Cynthia Lake a Susan Davis c Nancy A. Madden a b Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.edurev.2010.07.002 Get rights and content Abstract This article reviews research on the achievement outcomes of alternative approaches for struggling readers ages 5–10 (US grades K-5): One-to-one tutoring, small-group tutorials, classroom instructional process approaches, and computer-assisted instruction. Study inclusion criteria included use of randomized or well-matched control groups, study duration of at least 12 weeks, and use of valid measures independent of treatments. A total of 97 studies met these criteria. The review concludes that one-to-one tutoring is very effective in improving reading performance. Tutoring models that focus on phonics obtain much better outcomes than others. Teachers are more effective than paraprofessionals and volunteers as tutors. Small-group, phonetic tutorials can be effective, but are not as effective as one-to-one phonetically focused tutoring. Classroom instructional process programs, especially cooperative learning, can have very positive effects for struggling readers. Computer-assisted instruction had few effects on reading. Taken together, the findings support a strong focus on improving classroom instruction and then providing one-to-one, phonetic tutoring to students who continue to experience difficulties."

You'll just need to follow a few simple steps before you can walk down the aisle. This includes applying for a marriage license through your County Clerk's office, having an eligible person officiate over the ceremony, and filing the original marriage license with the County Recorder within ten days. Here's a summary of California's most common marriage license requirements. Is there an Age Requirement? Each state has its own age requirement for getting hitched. In California, you have to be 18-years-old to tie the knot. Anyone under 18 has to get written consent from at least one parent (or legal guardian) and permission from a California superior court judge. Do We Have to be Residents of California? You and your significant other do not need to be California residents to marry in California."

March 26, 2012 by Ben Caldwell State laws vary, but typically, you need a two-year masters degree and two more years of full-time, supervised experience. Here are the steps to becoming a licensed family therapist. If you are planning or considering a career as a marriage and family therapist, it is important to give thought to the time and money it will take to work your way to licensure. The timing of steps along the way could impact your choices for when to get married, have children, or maintain employment in another field. Presented here are the typical steps to an MFT license and some common timeframes. The steps and timeframes listed here do not account for individual circumstances or the many state-to-state differences in licensure laws. You should check the web site of your state MFT licensing board (AAMFT offers a handy directory of state MFT licensing boards) to learn the specific requirements of the state where you want to license. I have some emphasis on California in this post because it is the state I call home, and because about half the MFTs in the country are here. Note that a “typical timeframe” here means a common amount of time needed for those who are accomplishing that step through full-time work or study."

Officiant Guy, a wedding officiant in Southern California, issues a California marriage license which will lead to a California marriage certificate. Certified Copy License Marriage Some bridal couples ask us after the fact, often in a panic, “Why haven’t we received our certified copies of the marriage certificate from the county?”We understand that you have plenty to think about on your wedding day and that it’s hard to remember when we explain to you how to get your marriage license copy. The necessary steps to receive your certified copy or copies are very simple. However, the County Clerk’s Office assumes that you do not want a copy of marriage license until you ask for one. You will not receive a certified copy of your California marriage license until you specifically order it from the Los Angeles Registrar Recorder/County Clerk’s Office or whatever County Clerk’s Office that issued your marriage license. ( So, for example, if you got your marriage license in Orange County but was married in Ventura County, you must go to the Orange County Clerk’s office to receive your copies of the marriage certificate.) We, of course recommend that you have Officiant Guy issue your marriage license because he will hand deliver it to the LA County Clerk’s office in person. In Los Angeles County, each certified copy of your California state marriage certificate costs $15 (as of 2015). We suggest that you purchase at least two copies of the marriage certificate so that you’ll have multiple copies to keep in separate locations."

On May 18, 1970, Jack Baker and Michael Mc Connell walked into a courthouse in Minneapolis, paid $10, and applied for a marriage license. The county clerk, Gerald Nelson, refused to give it to them. Obviously, he told them, marriage was for people of the opposite sex; it was silly to think otherwise. Baker, a law student, didn’t agree. He and Mc Connell, a librarian, had met at a Halloween party in Oklahoma in 1966, shortly after Baker was pushed out of the Air Force for his sexuality. From the beginning, the men were committed to one another. In 1967, Baker proposed that they move in together. Mc Connell replied that he wanted to get married—really, legally married."

If you plan on getting married in the South Lake Tahoe area, keep in mind that it borders both California and Nevada.

California Marriage License For a California wedding, the couple has two options of obtaining a marriage license. One option is that they can have their minister provide a marriage license for them, which is typically issued on the day of the wedding and in the form of a confidential license. However, the minister must be a licensed notary public and authorized by the county clerk to issue the license. The second option for obtaining a marriage license is that the couple may purchase the license themselves directly from any county clerk’s office within California prior to the ceremony. The county clerk will have two different types of licenses available. You will have the choice of purchasing either a confidential marriage license or a public marriage license. Irrespective of the county of issuance or the type of license purchased, both documents allow for the wedding to be performed and legally consummated in any county within the State of California."

"text": "Report Marriage and Family Marriage: What It Is, Why It Matters, and the Consequences of Redefining It March 11, 2013 30 min read Download Report Ryan Anderson@Ryan TAnd Senior Research Fellow in American Principles and Public Policy Ryan T. Anderson, Ph. D., researches and writes about marriage, bioethics, religious liberty and political philosophy. Summary Marriage is based on the truth that men and women are complementary, the biological fact that reproduction depends on a man and a woman, and the reality that children need a mother and a father. Redefining marriage does not simply expand the existing understanding of marriage; it rejects these truths. Marriage is society’s least restrictive means of ensuring the well-being of children. By encouraging the norms of marriage—monogamy, sexual exclusivity, and permanence—the state strengthens civil society and reduces its own role. The future of this country depends on the future of marriage. The future of marriage depends on citizens understanding what it is and why it matters and demanding that government policies support, not undermine, true marriage. Key Takeaways Marriage exists to bring a man and a woman together as husband and wife to be father and mother to any children their union produces. Government can treat people equally and respect their liberty without redefining marriage."

"text": "How To Get A Marriage License Before Your Walk Down The Aisle — Because It's Kind Of An Important Detail By Caitlin Frauton June 4 2015Wondering how to get a marriage license? The most important thing you should know is that it varies state to state, and even county to county. All the rules can get a little unwieldy, so these are the basic areas to research in the location of where you are getting married. Once you know what the county has to say about each of these areas and you've picked up your license, you'll be legally ready for your walk down the aisle (yay!). But first thing's first — what is a marriage license? A marriage license is a government-issued document that shows that you and your partner are legally allowed to be married. Marriage licenses first made an appearance in the Middle Ages, and in the United States, some people even needed to obtain a marriage license during colonial times. So needless to say, marriage licenses have been a prerequisite for a lot of couples tying the knot. John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, Beyonce and Jay-Z, Ellen De Generes and Portia de Rossi, Prince William and Duchess Kate — yep, they all needed one. So clearly there's no way to walk down the aisle without one of these bad boys."

"text": "\"More Articles1. Can Grandchildren Be Considered Dependents on Taxes?2. Can a Married Person Filing a Joint Return Be Claimed as a Dependent?3. What Deductions Can I Use When Supporting a Grandchild? The Internal Revenue Service allows a grandparent to claim his grandchild as a dependent if the grandchild meets the IRS criteria of either a \"\"qualifying child\"\" or \"\"qualifying relative.\"\" Both sets of criteria, however, prohibit a married grandchild from serving as anyone's dependent if he files a joint tax return with his spouse. A narrow exception to this restriction does exist, but most married people will not be eligible for it. Married Dependent Issues In most cases, married individuals cannot serve as dependents to other taxpayers if they file a joint return with their spouse. However, if the only reason your grandchild files a joint return is to obtain a refund of taxes actually paid – meaning that the refund isn’t the result of claiming a refundable tax credit – the joint tax return he filed won't prevent you from claiming him as a dependent. In that case, however, he must also meet other IRS qualifications to be considered your dependent, either as a qualifying child or a qualifying relative."

"text": "\"The head of household status can lead to a lower taxable income and greater potential refund than the single filing status, but to qualify, you must meet certain criteria. To file as head of household, you must: Pay for more than half of the household expenses Be considered unmarried for the tax year, and You must have a qualifying child or dependent. Some of these terms, such as \"\"considered unmarried\"\" and \"\"qualifying child or dependent\"\" may seem a bit confusing, but the IRS has provided a series of guidelines to help taxpayers understand whether or not they qualify to file as head of household. Maintaining a household The first requirement for filing as head of household is that you must have paid for more than half of the expenses involved in maintaining your household during the tax year. This means that you must have paid more than half of the total household bills, including rent or mortgage, utility bills, insurance, property taxes, groceries, repairs and other common household expenses. If you receive financial assistance toward your household expenses from a parent or other individual, you can still qualify to file as head of household as long as you are paying for more than 50 percent of the bills with your own earnings, savings, or capital. Considered unmarried The IRS also requires all taxpayers who file as head of household to be \"\"considered unmarried\"\" as of the last day of the tax year. To be considered unmarried means: You have never been married You are divorced or legally separated from your spouse You lived away from your spouse for at least the last six months of the tax year Your spouse is a nonresident alien and you have a qualifying child who lived with you for more than half of the year. Keep in mind that if you and your spouse lived in separate homes due to a temporary circumstance, such as military service, business trips, a stay in a medical treatment facility, or attendance at college, the IRS still considers you married for that tax year. Qualifying child The requirement for a qualifying child or dependent extends beyond just your own son or daughter."

Your Tax Refund When it comes to taxes, the first question we are often asked at Jackson Hewitt is, “Will I get a tax refund?” For the majority of our clients, that answer is YES! This good news leads almost immediately to the next question, “How quickly can I get my refund?”For millions of Americans, your tax refund is the biggest paycheck you’ll receive all year! This means filing your taxes is the most important financial transaction. After 34 tax seasons, our Tax Preparers have some tips on what to do to get the maximum refund you deserve, and to get money early. Tax Refund Timing According to the IRS, most refunds are funded within 21 days of filing. This clock starts after the IRS begins processing tax returns for the year. However, provisions included in the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act (or PATH Act) impact certain tax return’s refund timing. For tax returns that contain the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and/or the Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC), those refunds will begin be available in late February."

The earned income tax credit, also known as the earned income credit, is a federal and state refundable tax credit for those with low-to-moderate income from working for others or themselves. Taxable earned income can come from tips, salaries, wages, union strike benefits, self-employment earnings and certain disability benefits. To claim the credit, you must meet several conditions, one of which comes with the option of having a qualifying child. A domestic partner cannot claim a partner’s child unless that child meets the federal requirements and your state recognizes such partnerships. Domestic Partnership The state that you live in must recognize domestic partnerships. If the state recognizes the partnership, you must be registered with the state’s domestic partner registry. According to the IRS, for a domestic partnership to qualify for tax purposes, it must be registered. If you just say you are in a domestic partnership because the two of you are together, the IRS will not accept this as a true partnership for tax purposes.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Earned Income Credit)navigation search The United States federal earned income tax credit or earned income credit ( EITC or EIC) is a refundable tax credit for low- to moderate-income working individuals and couples, particularly those with children. The amount of EITC benefit depends on a recipient’s income and number of children. For a person or couple to claim one or more persons as their qualifying child, requirements such as relationship, age, and shared residency must be met. In the 2013 tax year, working families, if they have children, with annual incomes below $37,870 to $51,567 (depending on the number of dependent children) may be eligible for the federal EITC. Childless workers that have incomes below about $14,340 ($19,680 for a married couple) can receive a very small EITC benefit. U. S. tax forms 1040EZ, 1040A, or 1040 can be used to claim EITC without qualifying children. To claim the credit with qualifying children, forms 1040A or 1040 must be used along with Schedule EITC attached. [ 1]EIC phases in slowly, has a medium-length plateau, and then phases out more slowly than it was phased in. Since the credit phases out at 21% (more than one qualifying child) or 16% (one qualifying child), it is always preferable to have one more dollar of actual salary or wages (although technically, since the EIC table moves by fifty-dollar increments, it is always preferable to have an extra fifty-dollar increment of salary or wages) considering the EITC alone. If the EITC is combined with multiple other means-tested programs such as Medicaid or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, it is possible that the marginal tax rate approaches or exceeds 100% in rare circumstances depending on the state of residence; conversely, under certain circumstances, net income can rise faster than the increase in wages because the EITC phases in.

It is my understanding that the trustee does NOT have to file Form 1041 for the Roth IRA Conduit Trust -- is that correct? If not, what are the circumstances/situations where a Form 1041 (and concomitant Schedule K-1) must be filed for the Roth IRA Conduit Trust? ( I have researched this issue without much success; I have found one commentator who states that income to the Trust [u]would likely to be considered principal of the Trust [/u]and is not required to be reported on Form 1041. My research is silent regarding capital gains.) Any help on these issues would be appreciated Re: Roth IRA Conduit Trust and filing Form 1041Submitted by [email protected] on Thu, 2012-02-09 10:55I see no reason that a Roth IRA Conduit Trust should not be subject to the same reporting requirements as other trusts: a tax return is required if gross income exceeds $600 or if taxable income exceeds zero. That being said, the receipts received by the trust are probably tax free and income and gains on accumulated trust assets are unlikely since it is your intent that all receipts (net of expenses) be distributed. Thus gross income is arguably zero, taxable income is likely zero and no Form 1041 would be required. I use the word \"\"receipts\"\" because the meaning is clear."

Browse webinar platforms Nonprofits and libraries can use webinars for training, sharing information about a new product or service, or promoting a program. There are many tools that make it easy for any organization to host a webinar, even with limited technology expertise. Below, we'll outline some of the major steps you can take to plan quality, affordable webinars at your organization.1. Ask Yourself Whether a Webinar Is the Right Tool for Your Needs A webinar can be a powerful training and outreach tool, but the decision to use a particular tool should be based on your goals and the needs of your audience. When determining whether a webinar is the best medium for your needs, consider Your audience. The subject matter. The time you'll need to cover your topic. Most online audiences tend to lose interest after about two hours (or less!). While webinars work well for some topics, they're not suited to every training need."

I’ve traveled the country and worked with hundreds of programs. I am always mindful that my visit is so temporary, but what happens in each program before and after I arrive is what will really make or break the success of my presentation. A great presenter can only go so far if the stage is not set for a commitment to learning. A great administrator can spend a lot of money on professional development, but will be disappointed if that stage is not set. If you are an administrator, this list is absolutely essential for you. Using it will undoubtedly help you to get more value from every professional development dollar you spend.

Here are some helpful resources: High School Courses Overview High School Math High School English High School Science High School Social Studies High School Electives Can Homeschoolers Attend College? Homeschoolers are often asked (or may even themselves ask) if it’s possible for homeschooled students to go to college. Although some homeschoolers are opting out of college altogether, preferring entrepreneurship or apprenticeship instead, many others are following the traditional path to college. For those that go on to a college or university, the process can seem intimidating because most of the resources available are geared toward public school students. Colleges are aware that homeschoolers do not fit the typical student mold and understand that the components of their application may look different. Admissions departments are very helpful, and some colleges (ranging from Princeton to Biola) have even set up special pages for homeschooled applicants. In terms of applications, most schools put more weight on standardized tests like the SAT & ACT for homeschooled applicants. They may also ask the applicant to submit additional testing (such as SAT II tests) that they do not require of other applicants."

Not too long ago having a blog for your business was considered edgy…ahead of it’s time. But today it is becoming more and more the norm. So how do you stand out? You become omnipotent. And you do so by repurposing your content. With just a few tweaks, you can take a single piece of content that may be sitting in a singular location (i.e. your blog) and spread it through different platforms, and different audiences. Further down in this post I will share a brilliant example of content repurposing. But first let’s jump into some basics…What is Content Repurposing? Let’s start with content."

Why is professional development for public librarians important? We live in a time of exponential change. Not only are electronic technologies proliferating at an unprecedented rate, but the population of New York is growing continually more diverse. These changes have transformed, and continue to transform, library services and the skills necessary to deliver them. New Yorkers of all ages and backgrounds need the help and guidance of a skilled, diverse library workforce to make full use of library resources. The New York Library Association (NYLA) and the Board of Regents recognize that librarians and library staff need continual training to stay current with these developments in information technology.2. How does this benefit the library profession and library services in New York State? Studies show that one of the major predictors of success for public libraries is having an informed and knowledgeable librarian. Requiring professional development for certified public librarians benefits librarians, local libraries, library customers, and local communities."

But if you’re more of a public speaker and want to share your ideas upfront with your audience, you can set up and host a webinar. A webinar or a web-based seminar is a great way to build your brand and/or promote a product you want to sell online. Unfortunately, webinar software are quite expensive with a steep learning curve to get through. Popular software like Go To Webinar, Any Meeting, and Click Webinar charge $30-$99/month based on the number of attendees and features like recordings, ads-free experience, and live support. If you’re on a shoestring budget but want to get the word out about your product or brand, Google+ Hangouts on Air is a great free alternative. Tied in with Google+ and its suite of features, you can start a hangout and not have to worry about limits on your attendees, ads annoying the heck out of your audience, or paying a premium fee if you only host webinars occasionally. To get you started, I’ll show you how to create, set up, and broadcast a webinar to your audience using Google+ Hangouts on Air. I’ll be using a Google+ page I created for my blog so you can see how you can create and host webinars to promote and build your product and brand.

A webinar is a live web-based video conference that uses the internet to connect the individual hosting the webinar to an audience–the viewers and listeners of the webinar from all over the world. Hosts can show themselves speaking, switch to their computer screens for slideshows or demonstrations, and even invite guests from other locations to co-host the webinar with them. There are also interactive features that the audience can use to ask questions and chat with host. Many people who host webinars include Q&A sessions at the end to answer viewers' questions."

ED Peer Review Feedback A Message from Commissioner Johnson ESSA is not Alaska's vision for public education, but rather our goal is that it will support and nourish the vision of public education held by Alaska stakeholders. Overview The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) was passed by Congress and signed by the President in December 2015. ESSA reauthorizes the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA) and will replace No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and Alaska’s current NCLB Flexibility Waiver. Alaska’s transition to, and implementation of, ESSA will be a thorough and thoughtful process informed by meaningful consultation with state and local education stakeholders. ESSA requires that State Educational Agencies (SEAs) develop a State Plan addressing three components: Standards and Assessments; School, District, and State Accountability Systems; and School Support and Improvement. SEAs must develop state plans “with timely and meaningful consultation with the Governor, members of the State legislature and State board of education, local educational agencies, representatives of Indian tribes located in the State, teachers, principals, other school leaders, charter school leaders, specialized instructional support personnel, paraprofessionals, administrators, other staff, and parents.” ( Every Student Succeeds Act, Sec. 1111)Federal regulations and guidance are being developed on an ongoing basis by the U. S. Department of Education (ED) to direct and support implementation of ESSA. To facilitate the transition to ESSA, the Alaska Department of Education & Early Development (DEED) is conducting a review of the work required to fully implement the new law. As with implementation of any program of such significance and complexity, changes will occur over the course of months and even years."

A few months ago, I held a Yabbly AMA about how and why we use webinars here at Mention. For the uninitiated, webinars are online seminars or master classes designed to educate around a clear and concise topic. Generally around 30-40 minutes, these live events are a fantastic way to demo a product, show off a new feature, offer tips, hacks, or best practices, and perhaps most powerfully: to introduce yourself — your actual self — to customers. I have to say, I was surprised by all the interest on Yabbly. The AMA had almost 9,000 views and generated a lot of great activity. Clearly this is a topic that a lot of people are interested in. Part of that has to do with the unique barriers to entry that a webinar has. On the one hand, they seem conceptually easy."

Studying biology teaches us to ask questions, make observations, evaluate evidence, and solve problems. Biologists learn how living things work, how they interact with one another, and how they evolve. They may study the evolution, natural history, and conservation of plants and animals; investigate the interactions of living organisms with light, the environment, or each other; or have careers in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, or medical research. Their work increases our understanding about the natural world in which we live and helps us address issues of personal well being and worldwide concern, such as environmental degradation, threats to human health, and maintaining viable and abundant food supplies.

Full Answer The most direct route into meteorology is to complete a 4-year bachelor's degree in meteorology. This means high school students who are looking at the degree should pick math and physics based subjects. It is more common for students to complete a 4-year degree in geology, physics, chemistry, engineering or biology, before moving onto a 2-year master's degree program in meteorology. This is because few colleges offer bachelor's degree programs that focus primarily on the subject."

Comprehensive schools of agriculture, such at the University of California, Davis have programs on breeding new strains of farm animals. They have programs for various species: cattle, swine, etc. Of course these animals are bred to be slaughtered, so if this bothers you, you can move on to the next paragraph.

However, most employers prefer applicants with some focus of study in biology, animal science, veterinary-related science, or related fields. Employers also highly value direct animal care experience. For occupations associated with zoos, aquariums and animal parks, competition is extremely fierce, so formal education and hands-on experience become much more necessary. Other facilities that employ animal care workers are groomers, kennels, pet stores, shelters, veterinary facilities, stables and laboratories. More formal education or hands-on experience may be required for some jobs within the general area of animal care. For example, groomers usually go through an apprenticeship lasting several months, and zoos and animal parks may require specific undergraduate degrees. What does an Animal Care Worker Do?

Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: There are several different careers that would fit the activities you would like to do. Animal caretakers in zoos or wildlife sanctuaries provide most daily care for the animals in their charge. This can include preparation of meals, administration of medication, and making daily observations of their behavior to look for any changes that could indicate the presence of a medical problem. Many will also arrange enrichment activities for the animals to keep them active. Jobs in this field usually require a Bachelor's of Science degree (B. S.) in Biology or Zoology as well as practical experience (e.g. volunteering at a zoo or sanctuary). Veterinary technicians are in many ways analogous to human nurses.

As undergraduates, most prospective marine biologists study biology or zoology, and some choose majors in marine biology. Studying marine biology as an undergraduate is not a prerequisite to becoming a marine biologist, however. Marine biologists may find it useful to develop a strong background in engineering, mathematics, or computer science in addition to pursuing a natural sciences education. Students in biology programs study biochemistry, cell biology, ecology, and evolution in addition to taking courses in physics, chemistry, calculus, and statistics. Biology students can choose elective courses to supplement the required courses for their major, and some schools offer courses in marine ecology and zoology, which is study of the animal kingdom. Biology programs have a large laboratory component, so students in these programs gain experience working with laboratory tools and following laboratory and research protocols. Like students in general biology programs, zoology students take courses in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. After completing their core coursework in biology, zoology students take courses that focus on animal behavior and physiology or they may study particular types of animals like insects, birds, fish, or mammals."

February 25, 2015share this post:email facebooklinkedin twitter reddit google+ pinterest pocket Teeth grinding or teeth clenching typically occurs at night. This is an annoying habit, but grinding your teeth can also cause significant and irreversible damage. If you’ve been grinding your teeth or think you might be grinding them at night, you might be wondering: How do I stop? We will address this question later in this blog post, but first, let’s talk about what teeth grinding is and why people do it. What is teeth grinding? When people have a medical condition known as bruxism, they grind or clench their teeth during sleep. This is a common condition. According to the National Sleep Foundation, one survey estimates that eight percent of adults grind their teeth at night, and one study shows that more than a third of parents report symptoms of bruxism in their children. Teeth grinding is common in children as well — usually when the baby teeth emerge and when the permanent teeth come in — and it’s typically not a habit requiring treatment."

"text": "Until recently, teeth grinding had been a mystery amongst doctors and dentists. The working theory used to be that grinding was caused by stress, but then again, this didn’t explain why we see that a fetus in utero grinds their teeth — and so, grinding remained a mystery among dentists, doctors, and researchers. But thanks to the latest research, it’s now accepted that grinding is an instinctual response that helps us survive. This powerful new research has flipped on its head how we both treat grinding and how we think about diagnosing sleep apnea. For more, check out my #1 bestselling book The 8-Hour Sleep Paradox. Why You Grind Your Teeth at Night During the night, the brain cycles through lighter and deeper stages of sleep. As the brain approaches deep sleep, all the muscles in the body have to fully let go and relax. This easily causes trouble for the airway — the jaw is heavy and easily blocks the airway and the tongue, when fully relaxed, expands to almost twice its size to block the airway as well. Researchers studied brain scans of people with partial blockage in their airways while they slept and what they noticed is that it was grinding (also called bruxism) that reopened the airway and got the study participants breathing again. As soon as they were given something to keep their airway open all night long — like a CPAP machine or a dental appliance that held the jaw in place so the tongue and jaw don’t block the airway — their grinding stopped and so did the “apneic” events, or the loss of breathing during sleep."

The sign is a white spot that is dull and opaque. This color change indicates that the tooth has lost minerals and is softening. Sometimes this problem is discovered on X ray. Unfortunately X rays make the softened area appear to be a hole – and this often convinces people that a filling is needed. Putting Back Minerals –for natural tooth repair: As easily as minerals left a tooth, they can be returned. Remineralization is a method that can naturally reverse cavities in teeth. The earlier a cavity is detected, the quicker it can be reversed. Left untreated, the soft “first-stage” will progress and reversal becomes more difficult. The next stage happens when cavity bacteria enter the softened area and eventually start to burrow towards the center."

To counter this I started dropping the lower jaw sligtly. MISTAKE!! Parkie had been waiting for this, now made the tremor move from side to side. This caused the flap of skin which some men develop under their chin after puberty, (many years after puberty), to move back and forth with the tremors.

TMJ disorder (often just called TMJ) is a problem with the temporomandibular joint, a very complex place where the jaw bone is connected to the head bone. This is a floaty joint, meant to come a bit out of socket as you open wide, move your jaw side to side, forward and back, etc. As you may have noticed, there’s a disc involved, a little piece of cartilage just like the ones between your vertebrae.

"text": "\"Orthodontics Dental Hygiene Dentistry Personal Question Why do my teeth shift even though I wear my retainers every night after my braces procedure? What can I do about it?7 Answers Marina Rubinshtein, Aesthetic & Restorative Dentist Answered Nov 19, 2016 · Author has 193 answers and 990.4k answer views Your teeth shift even though you wear your retainers every night after getting braces off because of natural pressure of the bone and fibers around you teeth. Orthodontic treatment works to move teeth by: Placing pressure on the muscle and fibers around the teeth on one side…In turn the bone will resorb on the other side. Since the resorbed bone will take a very long time to grown in, there's always going to be movement. The only way to keep the movement to a minimum is to have a bonded retainer placed on your teeth after the braces come off. — For Adults, it is recommended that a permanent retainer stay in place forever if orthodontics were done at an adult age due to the fact that possibilities of shifting are greater due to the adult onset periodontal conditions such as grinding and other bad habits.

"text": "\"When I examine a patient’s mouth, I often inform them “You have been grinding your teeth at night! If you’re grinding at night as well, please take a vacation – doctor’s orders!” We laugh, then get serious about what was just said. Common responses from patients include:“How do you know that I grind my teeth?”“Why do I grind my teeth?”“I sleep with my mouth open; I do not grind my teeth!”“Yes, I know, but I do not want to wear a night guard!”Let’s have a discussion. Teeth grinding is a multifactorial phenomenon, it can originate from bite problems, posture problems, stress, diet or even certain oral medications. You may experience one or multiple symptoms of night grinding, including sensitive teeth, receding gums, teeth chipping, teeth movement, flat teeth, broken teeth, damaged dental restorations (such as fillings), and even headaches and a sore jaw . Usually, during the day, there is space between your upper and lower teeth – the teeth are not in contact, they come in contact only when they are being used to chew food. Eating food exerts approximately 5 – 10 pounds per square inch of loading force. This is normal and will not create wear and tear issues in the tooth structure. At night however, during sleep, facial muscle contractions (like the Masseter muscle) generate a much greater force, anywhere from 300 to 500 or even up to 1000 pounds per square inch of force!"

Listen When you look in on your sleeping child, you want to hear the sounds of sweet dreams: easy breathing and perhaps an occasional sigh. But some parents hear the harsher sounds of gnashing and grinding teeth, called bruxism, which is common in kids. About Bruxism Bruxism is the medical term for the grinding of teeth or the clenching of jaws. Many kids have it (2 to 3 out of every 10 will grind or clench, experts say), but most outgrow it. Bruxism often happens during deep sleep phases or when kids are under stress. Causes of Bruxism Experts aren't always sure why bruxism happens. In some cases, kids may grind because the top and bottom teeth aren't aligned properly. Others do it as a response to pain, such as from an earache or teething. Kids might grind their teeth as a way to ease the pain, just as they might rub a sore muscle."

We recently discussed at length how to naturally whiten teeth without destroying our enamel. We also have discussed how to stop two common habits that cause crooked teeth.

"text": "Naturally Treating and Curing Teeth Grinding (Bruxism)Print Written by Thomas Corriher Category: Reports Published: January 12, 2013f Share 3 Tweet Teeth grinding (bruxism) usually occurs at night while the sufferer sleeps, and normally it is first noticed by the person's spouse. In children, teeth grinding is likely to go unnoticed until significant damage has occurred. Bruxism should be considered a serious health condition, because a sufferer's tooth enamel may be eventually destroyed, leaving effected teeth extremely vulnerable to decay. The cosmetic consequences can be terrible too. In the worst cases, the aftermath of bruxism requires the complete removal of teeth. The dental and medical establishments usually recommend that sufferers wear mouth retainers (night guards) during sleep periods, to protect against further damage. While this is a wise option for some sufferers of bruxism, it is nonetheless important to note that this reflects an institutional policy of categorically ignoring all causes of this condition. The standard approach is, at best, a temporary suppression of a single symptom of some potentially serious underlying issues. It is like removing the batteries from a smoke detector, instead of fighting the fire that is causing the alarm. Teeth grinding is always a symptom of another health issue, so masking the symptom with a retainer should only be a short-term solution."

Question I wake up with a salty taste in my mouth every day. Why? Does it mean I'm grinding my teeth? What are the symptoms of teeth grinding? Answer I can think of two potential causes of this symptom, and I don't think either one would be related to tooth grinding. Grinding your teeth is something that you probably wouldn't be aware you were doing, and it would only know if someone else heard you doing it or if your dentist saw some evidence of wear and tear on the teeth at your regular dental checkup. On the other hand the salty taste could come from acid reflux. When acid from the stomach washes up into the esophagus and mouth, which commonly happens at night when you lay down, this can cause irritation to the back of the throat, cough, and a bitter or salty taste in the mouth when you wake up."

Like any other type of health insurance, Medicare has enrollment periods. The primary enrollment period starts three months before the month you turn 65. If your birthday is June 12, then your enrollment period starts on March 1."

"text": "Watch Out for Liens on Your Injury Settlement Proceeds Written by: Judge Anthony P. Calisi (ret. ) If you’re about to settle your personal injury claim, or you’ve just settled it, you should be aware of any lien holders. A lien holder is an individual or organization to whom you legally owe part of your settlement compensation. There are several types of legitimate lien holders in personal injury claims. They include: Doctors, hospitals, clinics, or other health care providers Medicaid and Medicare Veterans Administration Workers’ compensation insurance Your health and auto insurance companies Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available. Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.0:00 / 7:29When can a lien be put on your settlement? If you were injured and didn’t have the money to pay your medical bills, and someone advanced either the money or the health care services you needed, you probably have a duty to pay them back. If you’re in this situation, there’s a good chance there’s one or more liens against your settlement proceeds. Each state has its own laws and regulations governing how a lien must be “perfected,” or legitimized, by a lien holder. If your health insurance company paid your medical bills while your personal injury claim was in process, or a medical provider treated you without requiring immediate payment, they may have a legitimate lien against your settlement."

"text": "Brace Yourself: The Benefits of Flexible Spending By COLUMN BY DAVID MCPHERSONOct. 27, 2009Email If you have a child in need of braces, now might be the time to stuff a few thousand dollars into a flexible spending account. It could save you some big money, and this might be your last chance to do so. The reason I bring this up is that, at many workplaces, it is now open enrollment period, the time of year when employees are given up to 30 days to make changes to employer-sponsored benefit plans . At the same time, Congress could soon cut back the tax savings available to workers through the health care version of a flexible spending account. The health care reform bill recently approved by the Senate Finance Committee includes a provision that would cap the amount workers can contribute to health care flexible spending account at $2,500 a year, beginning in the 2011 tax year with no annual adjustment for inflation. This means that 2010 could be the last year a middle-class family facing a $5,000 bill for braces -- or some other big medical expense -- could offset that cost with nearly $1,400 in tax savings in a single year. The proposed $2,500 cap on annual flexible spending account contributions for health care expenses would reduce the tax savings under this scenario to about $700. For a family with three children, the lost tax savings could amount to about $2,100 in just a few years. I don't mean to devote too much attention to crooked teeth."

You have to get Medicare Part D through a private insurance company that is contracted with Medicare to offer these plans. Different insurers offer different types of plans, so your cost for the plan (premium), the drugs covered, and your out-of-pocket expenses for prescription drugs (copayments, coinsurance and deductible) will vary. If you decide not to join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan when you’re first eligible, and you don’t have other creditable prescription drug coverage, or you don’t get Extra Help (described below), you’ll likely pay a late enrollment penalty. Creditable prescription drug coverage means other drug coverage you may have now that is at least as good as a standard Medicare Prescription Drug Plan,Before we cover Medicare Prescription Drug Plans in depth, you might find these resources helpful: The Medicare Part D Coverage Gap “Secret” That Smart Seniors Must Know Medicare Part D Formularies – Why It Pays To Shop Around Medicare Prescription Drug Plans: 6 Tips to Help You Choose and Keep the Right Plan In general, there are two ways to get Medicare Prescription Drug coverage: Enroll in a stand-alone plan. These plans (sometimes called “PDPs”) add drug coverage to Original Medicare. Most people who purchase a Medicare supplement policy enroll in one of these stand-alone plans. You can choose any plan available in your service area. Enroll in a Medicare Advantage (Medicare Part C) plan.

"text": "What are the FICA Taxes? Nickel June 23, 2011 • Taxes Advertising Disclosure Have you ever wondered about those pesky FICA taxes that show up every paycheck? These are federal payroll taxes collected under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA). These taxes are used to support Social Security and Medicare. My employer denotes them as FICA-OASDI (Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance) and FICA-HI (Hospital Insurance), respectively. Calculating Your FICA Taxes The Social Security portion of the FICA tax is a flat 6.2% of gross compensation for wage earners, whereas the Medicare portion of the tax is 1.45%. These taxes are levied on both the employee and employer so, for every dollar taken from your paycheck, your employer is also paying a dollar. Of course, if you’re self-employed, you are both employer and employee. As such, these tax rates are effectively doubled to 12.4% and 2.9% for Social Security and Medicare, respectively. The good news here is that, if you make enough money, the Social Security tax goes away."

Employers who reimburse employees for individual non-group health plans face a $100 a day or $36,500 per year, per employee excise tax. This rule applies to all employers, but the fine itself is only levied on those who have to comply with Obama Care’s mandate (firms with 50 or more full-time equivalent employees). The enforcement of the fee was put off in most cases, but it was kicked into full gear starting July 1, 2015. In general: Employers with over 50 FTE need to offer a group plan. Employers with less than 2 employees can offer whatever they want. However, offering an HRA seems to count as minimum essential coverage (and thus it can’t be paired with premium tax credits or other marketplace assistance; an HRA can be paired with a marketplace plan, but not with marketplace assistance; learn more ). Employers with less than 50 FTE should look into group plans first, but can consider an HRP (which is like an HRA with special rules; and i’m not sure if it can be paired with tax credits; learn more about HRPs ). TIP: Nothing on this page should be taken as legal or tax advice. There are some rather large fees for getting it wrong, so take that into account."

"text": "What is a Health Savings Account? A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a tax-advantaged medical savings account you can contribute to and draw money from for certain medical expenses tax-free. HSAs can be used for out-of-pocket medical, dental, and vision. HSAs can’t be used to pay health insurance premiums. HSA’s can only be used with “ High Deductible Health Plans ” that count as “ Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC) .” Not every plan with a high deductible is HSA compatible, so make sure to double check the specifics before signing your annual health insurance contact. HSA’s can reduce AGI / MAGI to increase cost assistance eligibility levels and lower taxable income. If you invest money in an HSA, that money grows tax-free as well. HSA’s can be withdrawn from for non-medical use at a penalty, and investment portions of HSAs can involve the same risks as any other investment account.

"text": "What is a limited-purpose flexible spending account (FSA)? A limited-purpose health flexible spending account (referred to as a limited-purpose FSA) is much like a typical, general-purpose health FSA. However, under a limited-purpose FSA, eligible expenses are limited to qualifying dental and vision expenses for you, your spouse, and your eligible dependents. Here’s how a limited-purpose FSA works. Money is set aside from your paycheck before taxes are taken out. You can then use your pre-tax FSA dollars to pay for eligible vision or dental expenses throughout the plan year. You save money on expenses you’re already paying for, like dental checkups, vision exams, eyeglasses, and much more. Why is it a good idea to have a limited-purpose FSA? IRS rules do not allow you to contribute to a health savings account (HSA) if you are covered by any non-qualifying health plan, including a general-purpose health FSA. By limiting FSA reimbursements to dental and vision care expenses, you (or your spouse) remain eligible to participate in both a limited-purpose FSA and an HSA."

It has already expanded coverage of young adults by allowing them to stay on their parents’ plans until they turn 26, outlawed lifetime limits on what insurance will cover, lowered the cost of drugs for seniors on Medicare, caused 13 million consumers to get premium rebates totaling some $1.1 billion, and expanded access to free preventive care for patients of all ages. Last summer it survived a challenge in the U. S. Supreme Court.

Christopher Berkey for The New York Times IT’S not news that health care costs are increasing. Yet several recent studies show that few people factor those rising costs into their retirement plans. Consider this example from an annual report from Fidelity Investments: For a 65-year-old couple retiring this year, the cost of health care in retirement will be $240,000, 6 percent more than that same couple retiring in 2011 would pay. The report assumes that the man will live 17 years and the woman 20.“Most people don’t realize Medicare covers much less than traditional employer plans,” Sunit Patel, senior vice president in Fidelity’s benefits consulting group. “ The $240,000 number captures the Part B premium for physician services, Part D for prescription drugs. Then there are deductibles and coinsurance, and benefits that are not covered like vision exams, hearing aids. ”Another study, this one from Nationwide Financial, found that people who were near retirement routinely and wildly overestimated the percentage of health care costs covered by Medicare."

By Donna Rosato September 25, 2016Whether you get your health insurance through your employer, Medicare, or one of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) exchanges, there’s a good chance you’re paying more than you need to. According to a study last year by the National Bureau of Economic Research, 63 percent of the 50,000 employees at a Fortune 100 company selected a health plan that was not the most cost-effective option. Other studies have shown that most people pick a plan that’s more expensive than they need. Why are so many people electing insurance plans that aren’t the best fit? Because it’s downright confusing, so much so that a 2015 study commissioned by the insurance company Aflac found that more people would rather scrub their toilets than research insurance plans. Despite recent announcements from major insurers including Aetna and United Healthcare that they won’t be participating in some ACA exchanges in 2017, consumers in large markets can still have as many as 50 plans to choose from. There are hundreds of Medicare prescription drug plans and Medicare Advantage plans, and even employers may offer two or more choices. Making the right health insurance choice has never been more important because consumers are shouldering more of the rising cost of health services. ("

In 1977, the federal Clean Air Act was amended by Congress to require states to implement vehicle emissions inspection programs, known as I/M programs (for Inspection and Maintenance), in all major metropolitan areas whose air quality failed to meet certain federal standards. New York's program started in 1982, California's program (\"\" Smog Check \"\") started in 1984, and Illinois' program started in 1986. The Clean Air Act of 1990 required some states to enact vehicle emissions inspection programs. State impacted were those in metropolitan areas where air quality did not meet federal standards.

"text": "\"Home »Information How Do I Renew an Expired Vehicle Registration in Texas? By Sampson Quain; Updated June 05, 2017In Texas, you have a five-day grace period after your vehicle registration expires to drive your car without being cited. But once that five-day period has ended, you must renew your registration or risk being pulled over by an eagle-eyed law-enforcement officer. The state allows expired registrations to be renewed online for up to six months after their expiration date, as long as you haven't been cited for driving that vehicle with its expired sticker. Otherwise, you must visit a local county tax office -- which handles registration and titling -- and renew your registration in person. Getting Inspected First, take your motor vehicle for a safety inspection. Nearly all motor vehicles in Texas must undergo an annual safety inspection. If you reside in a county with high emissions, your vehicle will also need to undergo a smog test. Your vehicle must pass these inspections to obtain a registration. If your vehicle does not pass, you must make repairs to satisfy the state standard."

Other acceptable forms of identification may include a valid photo identification card or a military identification card.3 Realize that a basic requirement for registering a utility trailer is to have an official bill of sale providing proof that you are the owner. Types of information contained on the bill of sale include the year, make and body style in addition to the weight and identification number.

The Arbonne Compensation Plan is a breakaway compensation plan, or a uni-level plan, and we want to go through some of that detail. We’re going to just go through some concepts. We’re not going to get into a lot of in-depth review on the compensation plan and all the percentages, but we’ll go over some concepts and principles that govern the business model.

Selective pea, cranberry and rice proteins form the foundation of this product. While we have many vegan believers on staff, and they were impressed at the protein in this vegan blend (20 grams), we’re afraid this is not really enough protein to satisfy the needs of a non-vegan. Those who follow strict vegan diet are typically well aware that they need to overcompensate for protein they may be lacking from the foods the eat. For this reason, they are prepared to consume other foods and supplements to make up for this. If you are not a vegan, then we suggest finding a protein shake that contains more protein per a serving and has a protein source that is absorbed efficiently by the body. The biological value, or BV is the measurement of the body’s ability to absorb and utilize a protein. Soy has a Biological Value, or BV of 74. On the other hand, whey has a BV of 104. A solid mix of key nutrients make this a good vegan substitute."

Written by Maia, President It’s getting a little chilly here in Brooklyn, and with the change in weather comes chapped lips–for myself and my kids (my husband is strangely immune). Blistex lip products definitely soothe super chapped, sore lips. Perhaps this explains why Blistex sells more than $100 million worth of their “medicated” lip balm every year!While Blistex offers short-term relief from the pain of chapped lips, it contains ingredients that may carry other health risks.

"text": "\"Mineral Oil February 8, 2011 By Guest 67 Comments Mineral oil is a bit of a boring chemical. It is only made of two atoms, carbon and hydrogen. And they aren’t even combined in an interesting way – they are simply long chains of carbon atoms with hydrogen atoms attached to them. Most chemical reactions take place via what we call functional groups – parts of molecules that can interact with functional groups on other molecules. Mineral oil doesn’t have any and so is not very reactive. It doesn’t even dissolve in water. But being unreactive doesn’t make it useless. One thing for which mineral oil is excellent is forming thin layers with good barrier properties. And this is what makes it interesting for cosmetic scientists and dermatologists. If you have dry skin, the chances are that it is due to the outer layer of your skin letting too much moisture escape."

"text": "Health Conditions & Diseases Wounds & Bruises Q: How do you heal a cut lip? A: Quick Answer The first step to treating any lip injury is to stop bleeding by applying pressure, according to the University of Rochester Medical Center. Because the lips have a large blood supply, lip cuts tend to bleed excessively. If the injury is on the outside of the lip, clean the area well, and apply an antiseptic spray or lotion. For cuts inside the lip, simply rinse the mouth to remove any particles. Continue Reading Keep Learning What first aid should you perform on a cut lip? How do you heal a busted lip? How do you heal a split lip? Full Answer Apart from the problem of additional bleeding, the rich blood supply in the lips enables them to heal quite fast when injured, explains the University of Rochester Medical Center. Most superficial cuts that are smaller than half an inch in length heal easily on their own simply by keeping the area clean."

"text": "\"Home Ailments Cracked Lips Remedies May 08, 2015Natural treatments are very effective at healing and preventing cracked or chapped lips. Home based treatments range from home remedies like coconut oil to supplements that support healthy skin. What Causes Cracked Lips? The lips do not contain oil glands like most other parts of the skin or body. Without oil glands, the lips are more prone to drying out and chapping or cracking. Additional factors contribute to this drying out including cold or dry weather, lack of self-care or hygiene, overexposure to the sun and frequent licking of the lips. Certain medications and supplements may also increase the risk of developing chapped lips including retinoids, lithium, chemotherapy drugs and vitamin A. Dehydration and malnutrition also contribute to the development of chapped lips. Home Remedies for Dry Cracked Lips Dry cracked lips are often easily treated using home remedies. Having plenty of moisture in the body is one of the main considerations for treating chapped lips. Drinking more water, using a humidifier, applying lip balm and avoiding cold weather conditions are initial treatment options."

Making your own lipstick takes only about 10 minutes, costs next to nothing and allows you to choose from a dizzying (and unconventional) array of colors. Is it safe? Even though Crayola does not publish a detailed and specific ingredient list, they do formulate their crayons so that toddlers can eat a whole box of the stuff without suffering anything more serious than a stomach ache. Crayons consist mainly of paraffin wax and non-toxic pigments. Wax is a major component in any lipstick or chapstick, and crayons' pre-mixed pigments will give you more choices, at less cost than either food coloring (I've tried that too) or the powders and gels cosmetic suppliers will sell you. This recipe works surprisingly well. The colors last longer, and stick to your lips better than regular commercial lipstick. No need to worry about evidence left on shirt collars, or on cigarette butts carelessly left in ashtrays... although sometimes, depending on the specific crayon color, the pigments might need a little extra smacking of the lips to disperse evenly."

If gloves are not available, use many layers of fabric, plastic bags, or whatever you have between your hands and the wound. Have the person hold his or her own hand over the wound, if possible, and apply pressure to the injured area. Use your bare hands to apply pressure only as a last resort. Have the person sit up and tilt his or her head forward with the chin down. This will help any blood drain out of the mouth, not down the back of the throat. Swallowing blood can cause vomiting."

You will need a few days afterward without social plans or strenuous activity. You will not look your best (swelling, oozing, & looks like wet paint) so plan activities around the house. Plan a shopping trip ahead of time for items you will need: ointments, straws, napkins for blotting, Q-tips, OTC pain reliever, prescriptions, a good book or movies. Get ahead on your dirty work - no lawn mowing or chores that will get dirt/ bacteria on the healing area. Do not have a procedure right before going on vacation because 1) you need healing time – you will not look like you had a makeover at the mall, 2) you may not be able to avoid sun, wind, or other items listed in post-care instructions, 3) if you had a question or permanent makeup problem it would be best to be near your permanent makeup artist and local physician. Do not wear your good clothes for the procedure because pigment might splatter on them. Pigment washes out of most clothes, but not your favorite ones. Wear something comfortable.

Therefore, you may be worried if you have discovered sore on the roof of your mouth. Usually, the reasons for having pain in the roof of mouth can be injury caused by eating food that’s too hot or sharp (like a potato chip), canker sores, or a cyst. However, sometimes sore roof of mouth could be a sign of something more serious. The pain in the roof of your mouth caused by swelling, a sore, an inflamed bump, or a blister can cause discomfort and be very frustrating. This is understandable because the roof of mouth skin is very delicate and we use our mouth frequently throughout the day to eat and speak. Fortunately, there are many home remedies that can help you soothe the pain, reduce the swelling, and get rid of a sore on the roof of your mouth quickly.

The hard palate is the area behind your teeth on the roof of the mouth and the soft palate is the part at the back. The majority of roof of mouth sores occur on the hard palate."

"text": "Frequently asked questions about salivary glands What and where are salivary glands? Salivary glands make the saliva in your mouth, which is very important for the health of your mouth and teeth (eg it stops your mouth drying out) - and also for the first stages of digestion of food (it contains some enzymes and salts). There are three major salivary glands around the mouth (1) sublingual - under the tongue, 2) parotid - overlying the cheek, and 3) submandibular gland- close to the jawline). There are also many small (minor) salivary glands, which are scattered throughout the mouth (eg you can feel them as little bumps in your cheeks and lips). Both the major and minor glands have ducts, which are the channels down which the saliva travels on its way to the mouth. What can go wrong with salivary glands? The most common problem with salivary glands that people notice is a swelling and/or infection of glands. This is usually because of a sudden blockage (obstruction) of the salivary ducts. This can be caused by either a 'stone' or thicker saliva in the ducts of the major salivary glands or because of injury to the minor salivary glands and ducts (eg you might have bitten your cheek or lips accidentally). Does a swelling in my glands mean I might have cancer?"

Piranha Behavior Most people have a misconception that the more piranhas in the tank the more aggressive they will be, this is not true, infact keeping too many piranha together only contributes to their skittishness. They do not fully trust one another, and being cramped in close quarters with each other only makes them more skittish and causes them to dart all around the tank, its what I call a \"\"Paranioa chain-reaction.\"\" One piranha may swim to close too another and the piranha will be afraid of being nipped by the other, then darts away scaring another piranha causing a chain-reaction of the whole school to bash their heads into the tank walls trying to get away. This also leads to the misconception of piranhas being very skittish, they are just shy fish. I keep 2 red belly juveniles, that live in a 60gallon tank, they are not skittish at all, because they have alot of room between each other. The only time they get scared and hide is when I have my hands in the tank. In general most piranhas are shy and not that aggressive, so do not buy any piranhas if you think they are vicous aggressive fish that can kill anything, because they are not. There are exepctions however, such as the Black Piranha (Serrasalmus Niger), White Piranha (Serrasalmus Rhombeus) Black Diamond Piranha (Serrasalmus Spilopleura) etc. I would NOT recommend these species to any beggining piranha keeper."

How you catch genital herpes You catch genital herpes during sex, by contact with someone who has the infection on their skin. You are most likely to catch it if your partner has herpes blisters or moist herpes sores. You can also catch herpes from someone who has no visible herpes sores. About 3% of people carry the virus on their skin without knowing that they have it (because it has never given them any symptoms), but they can pass it on to other people. This is one of the reasons it is important to use a condom with a new partner. Condoms give significant protection against genital herpes ( Journal of the American Medical Association 2001;285:3100-6). Because cold sores are also caused by herpes simplex virus, you can catch herpes if your partner gives you oral sex when they have a cold sore. The herpesvirus cannot survive for long outside the body, so it is unlikely (but not impossible) that you will catch it from towels."

It wasn’t part of the curriculum when I became a lactation consultant in 2009 and it wasn’t widely accepted or talked about amongst IBCLCs yet. I had a fair number of breastfeeding cases that I couldn’t fix and I didn’t know why.

I’ve just been waiting for the day when someone would finally invent lip color that lasted – truly lasted – through all the wear and tear of my daily routine. I never actually thought that day would come, but sure enough, I started to see reviews for new ‘smear-proof’, long-lasting lipsticks (starting with Youtube Beauty Blogger Tati’s review of the Lip Ink kits ). Then I discovered Lip Sense by Sene Gence through Instagram, and after checking out their huge color selection and ingredient-conscious formulations, I decided to give it a try – here is my honest review and first experience using the Lip Sense Starter Kit. What is Lip Sense? Lip Sense by Senegence is said to be a smear-proof, water-proof, budge-proof, kiss-proof, long-wear lipstick.

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

"text": "Related Articles Installing a Wood Handrail on a Wall How to Install a Staircase Handrail How to Install Handrails on Staircases How to Install Interior Wooden Balusters Hardwood handrails are available in deep red mahogany, rich red-brown maple, light chocolate-brown walnut, golden yellow poplar and white oak. The breathtaking hues of polished hardwood handrails highlight both your interior decorating color scheme and what can be a main focal point of your home; the stairwell. Adding hardwood handrails increases the value and safety of your home while adding a classic, traditional interior decoration that never goes out of style.1Consult your local building codes to determine the height that the rail needs to be installed at, such as 37 inches above the stair treads. There is usually some leeway. For instance, in the latest version of the California Building Code, regulations note that handrails must be between 34 and 38 inches above the treads.2Calculate the length of handrail you need. Measure the length of the stairs, from the top step to the bottom landing or the floor directly before the first step and add 7 inches.3Locate the studs in the wall that you are going to install the handrail on with a stud finder. The rail brackets must be attached to studs in order to keep the rail secure on the wall. Find the center of the studs and then use a 1-inch piece of low-tack painter's tape to vertically mark the location of the center of the stud on the wall.4Find the center of the stud located near the top stair tread's edge or nosing and stand a long carpenter's level up against the wall on its short end. Place a 1-inch piece of masking tape on the wall, 37 inches up from the stair tread and align the left edge of the tape with the level to ensure that it is straight and even. Use a measuring tape to measure up 37 inches on the wall (or whatever is comfortable within the range allowed by your municipality's building code) starting from the front edge of the stair tread and use a pencil to draw an even horizontal line on the painter's tape."

"text": "\"STAIR LANDINGSInstalling wood flooring on landings between two sets of stairs... When you are removing old carpet or vinyl tile from your steps and replacing them with hardwood stair treads, then you may also need to address the landing. You could use ceramic tile, or hardwood flooring left over from the main floor, but there are some situations where this is not the best or desired answer. Here's a few ideas on how to solve the problem. As you can see in the picture below, often you have a design with a few steps on the lower level and then a landing and then a few more steps to get to the upper floor... so the landing splits the full run of stairs. At Lacasse, we have started making 36-60\"\" strips of hardwood flooring to match the lengths of our hardwood stair treads, to use in just such applications. It would be too difficult to custom fit one large piece of wood, so this gives you a way to create the same look without splicing pieces of traditional hardwood flooring across the length of your landing. We can offer many different types of wood from African mahogany to Brazilian cherry on a custom order basis as well as red oak, white oak, birch and maple. See below, when and where this product might be a great answer. But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me share with you the two methods of applying wood of one sort or another to your landing and you'll see where one method might be better than another."

Replacing stair treads may be necessary due to age or wear, or for esthetic reasons. Some people remove the carpet that covers their stairs and find that the treads and risers are of rough construction or severely damaged by carpet tack strips and staples. In all these cases, you may want or need to replace your stair treads. There are several different methods of stair construction and replacing the stair treads depends to a certain degree on how your stairs were built. Some stair treads are mortised into the stair skirting or stringers. Others are simply butted up to the stair stringer, which is attached to the drywall. We will talk about the type of stair tread that butts up to the stringer attached to drywall. Update your stairs with new treads, risers, and skirting Preparation Remove all the old carpet, padding, staples, and tack strips.

Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.0:00 / 13:30HOW TO FRAME SIMPLE STAIR STRINGERSJANUARY 08, 2015 BY DANIEL WESTBROOKEvery stair-framing project has its own unique circumstances that always have to be considered—from simple to complex, interior to exterior, winders, landings, radius, type of finish materials, railings, etc. However, there are some consistent factors in framing stair stringers that are almost always the same. Most importantly: calculating the rise and the run, factoring in for tread and riser thickness, and making a drawing.- Daniel Westbrook Understanding these simple techniques will set you on the road to framing perfect stairs every time and help you with a solid foundation in entering into more complex stair framing!The simplest set of stair stringers to frame in my experience are a straight run from a deck. This is because deck stairs don't usually have the same sort of restrictions that interior stairs do. With interior stairs, you have to consider head height, drywall, skirt boards, and of course the precision of finish material that tie into them. That's why I believe, if you're an apprentice, it is probably best to start with a straight set of stair stringers off a deck. If you're a journeyman and haven't really done that many stairs, this will be great review!The three most important things you will learn today are: How to calculate the rise and run. How to mark out the stair stringer. How to measure tread thickness cut off the bottom of the stringers."

"text": "DIY Projects How to Build Wooden Deck Stairs By: Danny Lipford When building stairs or steps for a deck: Make sure all of the step risers are the same height, and all the step treads the same width to avoid a tripping hazard. The rise of each step is determined by the height of the landing from the ground, with each step height from 7″ to 8″ high. The width of each step should be from 11″ to 12″ wide. The stringers for the steps are notched at right angles with the proper rise and run. After cutting one stringer, use it as a pattern for all the others. Notch the top of the stringer so it rests on a ledger board attached to the deck framing. Attach deck stair treads with the cup facing down to prevent the steps from holding water or acting as a tripping hazard. Watch this video to find out more.

I’ve known this for years and I continue to keep my eye out for jig ideas all the time. Recently I ran into a jig that is a must have if you work on stairs, especially non-routed stair cases. In the photo above you’ll see a rather simple stair tread/riser jig. The jig consists of a left and right “pad” that’s used to set the end angle of the tread or riser. The “pad” rotates on a single bolt (with wing nut) that attaches the “pads” to the stretcher arms. There are two opposing stretcher arms that connect to each other with two bolts/wing nuts. The stretcher arms can move in and out depending on the width of the stair case (I’d make this jig to go to at least 50″ wide). The jig is best made out of a stable hardwood like Maple. It’s very important that the ends of the “pads” are straight."

"text": "\"Home >Design & Construction >Framing >Building and Installing Deck Stairs Framing January 01, 2011Building and Installing Deck Stairs Traditional cut stringers combined with new hardware make a strong connection By Mike Guertin Download the PDF version of this article. ( 1.11 MB)I've been building stairs inside homes and on decks for almost 30 years. There are lots of viable methods that avoid the pitfalls that lead to uneven risers, tilted staircases, and downright collapses; in this article, I describe my practices for building a set of stairs with cut stringers (stringers notched out for treads and risers), probably the most common type of stringers used on decks. I reference the 2009 International Residential Code (IRC); your local code may differ. Establish the Landing First Where I work, the grade at the end of a deck staircase often slopes, which means I have to establish where the bottom step will land before I can determine the overall rise of the stair. So rather than calculate a set of stairs and try to sort out the landing afterward, I lay out the landing first and cut the stairs to fit. I start by taking a rough measurement from the elevation of the deck's surface plumb down to where I judge the landing should go. I divide that number by 7 3/4 inches (the maximum permitted riser height) and round the answer to the next highest integer to determine the number of risers I'll need. For example, a total estimated rise of 52 1/2 inches divided by 7 3/4 inches equals 6.77, which rounds up to seven risers. I subtract one to get the number of treads (unless the top tread is an extension of the deck surface, there is always one less tread than there are risers)."

Alana Kane September 7, 2016 101 Questions Series, 101 Underlayment89 Comments 136,227 Viewstweet When installing vinyl plank flooring, it is important to know if you need underlayment. Unlike laminate flooring, most vinyl floors are designed to lay right on the subfloor. But there are a few exceptions to the rule, but with all flooring installations, there are a few things that are required no matter what floor you install. Before you install vinyl floors, always make sure your subfloor is: In good condition Free of damages Smooth Clean & Dust free Not all vinyl floorings are installed the same way. Take a careful look at what you purchase so you know if you need underlayment or other accessories to make you install last for years. Vinyl Flooring Underlayment Differences: Click Lock Vinyl Plank Flooring Click Lock Vinyl flooring has a locking system that is similar to laminate flooring, but has a thinner construction. Due to this construction, adding a foam underlayment can effect the locking system strength. Most of these vinyl floors can be installed right on the subfloor.

There may be screwing down of the subfloor, filling of knot holes and cush, sanding, etc needed to prepare the surface for vinyl plank.

Everyday, I wish I had carpet back! It is very difficult to keep it looking nice as it shows every footprint unless you are wearing socks. I literally have to clean the floor several times a day. I contacted the installer as well as Armstrong. Both have said the planks must have some sort of residue in them but where did it come from and why isn't daily cleaning getting rid of it. I've tried cleaner they recommended as well as plain water and diluted vinegar...but nothing so far has helped. I did research and found that others have this problem as well. Very frustrating!Helpful 5 people found this review helpful Doug of Boynton, FL Verified Reviewer Original review: Feb. 19, 2018I replaced my hardwood floors with Armstrong Residential/Commercial grade floors. After installing I noticed more scratches on this floor than the cheap wood flooring I replaced."

The company advised us to use double-sided tape on some of the short ends which we did. We have a nice smooth basement floor from which we removed an old vinyl floor. Because of some concerns about possible asbestos in the old glue we sealed the concrete, prior to install of new floor, using concrete sealer--the kind that goes on milky and dries clear. At least 2 coats were applied. Six months after installing the vinyl planks we noticed that some of them were cupped, forming a potential tripping hazard so we applied more double sided tape. A year later when the cupping progressed we called the company. They came for an inspection and found some moldy areas under some planks. This was surprising as we had done repairs to our drainage and foundation two years previous, plus we had sealed the concrete."

"text": "Is it better to install hardwood floors before or after the cabinets?by The Flooring Girl | Feb 6, 2014 | Blog, Hardwood Flooring | 10 comments Which comes first – the cabinets or the hardwood flooring? When it comes to kitchen remodels, many homeowners wonder if it’s better to install the cabinets or the hardwood floors first. Generally, it is much better to install the hardwood floors BEFORE the kitchen cabinets. There is one exception to this rule (see below). Please note that this assumes that you are doing a full remodel in the kitchen both replacing the cabinets and the flooring at the same time. If these are done at separate times due to budget reasons, this may need to be done differently. Please also not that if cabinets are done before the floors, it may severely limit your flooring options due to height issues, especially with appliances. It is best to think the whole process through and discuss with both cabinet and flooring contractors, even if you will do this in phases. Otherwise, you may be very sorry. I have seen several customers who did not adhere to this, and as a result they could neither do solid hardwood, nor tile and instead opted for vinyl flooring."

Just as laminate flooring, the thicker the floor, the sturdier it is, but this is not the end of the story…Vinyl Flooring Thickness Vinyl flooring comes in thicknesses ranging from 2mm to 5mm. There are several important questions you must ask yourself when deciding which thickness will be right for you: Where am I installing? Will there be a lot of foot traffic in this area? What type of subfloor do I have? What condition is my subfloor in? If you are looking for flooring to refresh your low traffic bedroom, a thinner vinyl plank flooring will work great for you.

Before you’re able to decide whether or not to install bamboo flooring, it is important to know and understand the pros and cons of using this material for your project. Pros and Cons Pros: Environmentally friendly Durable Climactic suitability Cost effective Variety of colors and patterns Warm aesthetic Low maintenance Cons: Cannot be installed in high moisture rooms Difficult to cut boards during installation Now that you’ve got a broad idea of the pros and cons of bamboo flooring, here’s a more in depth look of each of the advantages and disadvantages: Advantages of Bamboo There are many advantages to bamboo including its: environmental friendliness, durability, suitability, cost, variety of styles, warmth, and ease of maintenance. For many, these pros make the choice to use bamboo an easy one. Environmentally Friendly Bamboo is an excellent choice for those who are interested in building a “green” home or place of business. It is one of the most environmentally friendly options for flooring on the market. It is made from a type of grass, so it grows quickly in comparison to wood. It continues to grow without needing to be replanted, so it is highly renewable. For those who are worried about moisture and insects, the bamboo used for flooring is treated against them, and does not use harsh chemicals or pesticides in the process. Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) uses the Green Building Rating System developed by the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) as a set of standards regarding the environmentally friendliness of a particular building."

We are comparing a glue-down vinyl plank installation to a floating click vinyl plank installation. ( The glue-down option is considerably cheaper. As our basement area gets low usage, we want to minimize cost.) We are concerned about what will happen if we get water in the basement. The vendor proposing the glue-down option has said that, in case of flooding, the floor can be cleaned with a wet vac and will be good to go. Has anyone had experience with this situation?

Laminate flooring, which is made of a synthetic fiberboard material and has a laminate finish, is much cheaper than hardwood but will not last as long. This does not mean laminate flooring is a particularly inferior choice, however, as, in some cases, it can be more resistant to stains, scratches, moisture, and even general wear and tear. Much comes down to upkeep and quality materials.

"text": "THE ROLE OF GOVERNMENT IN EDUCATIONFrom Milton Friedman (1962/1982), Capitalism and Freedom (Chicago, IL: University of Chicago Press); earlier version (1955) in Robert A. Solo (Ed. ), Economics and the Public Interest, pp. 123-144 (New Brunswick, NJ: Rutgers University Press). The general trend in our times toward increasing intervention by the state in economic affairs has led to a concentration of attention and dispute on the areas where new intervention is proposed and to an acceptance of whatever intervention has so far occurred as natural and unchangeable. The current pause, perhaps reversal, in the trend toward collectivism offers an opportunity to re-examine the existing activities of government and to make a fresh assessment of the activities that are and those that are not justified. This paper attempts such a re-examination for education. Education is today largely paid for and almost entirely administered by governmental bodies or non-profit institutions. This situation has developed gradually and is now taken so much for granted that little explicit attention is any longer directed to the reasons for the special treatment of education even in countries that are predominantly free enterprise in organization and philosophy. The result has been an indiscriminate extension of governmental responsibility. The role assigned to government in any particular field depends, of course, on the principles accepted for the organization of society in general."

If you're in a hurry, you may want to skip down to the section, \"\"Elements of a Pastor Salary Package.\"\" There you'll find links to other pages where I discuss the various ingredients of effective clergy compensation._________________________"

"text": "The New Parent’s Guide to Life Insurance By Matt Becker Posted February 13, 2018Share Tweet Pin Email23I have to say, I have a love/hate relationship with life insurance. When it’s done right, life insurance is one of the best ways to ensure your family’s financial security. But it’s often sold by companies and insurance agents who don’t have your best interests at heart, which all too often ends with you paying too much for the wrong type of coverage. But it doesn’t have to be like that. Life insurance can be very simple, and most of the time it can provide a lot of protection without much cost. And make no mistake, if you have kids you almost certainly need some amount of life insurance. Because life insurance is the tool that makes sure there will always be financial resources available for them, no matter what. This guide will help you get the right type and the right amount of life insurance, without paying more than you have to. And no, I don’t sell life insurance so there’s no incentive for me to push it on you. My only goal is to help you get what you need."

"text": "The Many Benefits of an Employer Tuition Reimbursement Program & Policy By Matt Breed Posted in: College & Education Share Tweet Pin 1 Comments 1Having spent far too much time away from school, last year I finally decided to return to improve my skills and make myself more marketable in the job market. My first attempt, fresh out of high school was less than impressive. I spent way too many hours playing with my friends and not nearly enough time hitting the books. It happens to lots of us, but not everyone gets the opportunity to return and has the courage to take it. That’s why I could not be happier that my employer is kind enough to offer tuition reimbursement. Without it, I’m not sure I would even be back in school at all. What is Tuition Reimbursement? Just as it sounds, tuition reimbursement is something that many employers offer as a way to pay back employees for education expenses. Those who choose to participate still have to pay out of pocket for the courses they take. When the course is over, the employee can get back some or all of the tuition expenses."

"text": "\"Who should pay for the cost of college? In most circumstances, the privilege of parenthood carries with it the duty to assure that the child receives a good college education. Our courts have held that, in general, financially capable parents should contribute to the higher education of children who are qualified students. In evaluating a party's obligation for contribution toward the cost of higher education, courts will consider the following 12 factors: Whether the parent, if still living with the child, would have contributed toward the costs of the requested higher education;The effect of the background values and goals of the parent on the reasonableness of the expectation of the child for higher education;The amount of the contribution sought by the child for the cost of higher education;The ability of the parent to pay that cost;The relationship of the requested contribution to the kind of school or course of study sought by the child;The financial resources of both parents;The commitment to and aptitude of the child for the requested education;The financial resources of the child, including assets owned individually or held in custodianship or trust;The ability of the child to earn income during the school year or on vacation;The availability of financial aid in the form of college grants and loans;The child's relationship to the paying parent, including mutual affection and shared goals as well as responsiveness to parental advice and guidance; and The relationship of the education requested to any prior training and to the overall long-range goals of the child. Does a person have to pay for the college costs for their child? The courts have viewed education as a necessity. The recent trend in New Jersey has been to require parents to pay for the college costs for their children. Therefore, if the child is attending college, then it is very unlikely that a court will grant an emancipation motion. When a court makes a decision as to whether or not to require a parent to pay for a child's college education and related expenses, the court must consider the complete set of facts of each case. The court will analyze the following factors to assess if a parent should pay for a child's college costs; (i) the effect of the background, values, and goals of the parent on the reasonableness of the expectation of the child for higher education; (ii) the amount of contribution sought by the child for the cost of the higher education; (iii) the ability of the parent to pay that cost; (iv) the relationship of the requested contribution to the kind of school or course of study sought by the child; (v) the financial resources of both parties; (vi) the commitment to and aptitude of the child for the requested education; (vii) the financial resources of the child, including assets held individually or in custodianship or trust; (viii) the ability of the child to earn income during the school year or on vacation; (ix) the availability of financial aid in the form of college grants; (x) the child's relationship to the paying parent, including mutual affection and shared goals as well as responsiveness to parental advice and guidance; (xi) the relationship of education requested to any prior training and to the overall long range goals of the child."

How is Missouri child custody decided? Who will get custody of our child? Missouri custody laws state the court is required to determine what is in the best interests of the children. There are two components to the custody of a child that the court must determine. The court must decide which parent will have, or how both parents will share, the decision-making rights, responsibilities, and authority relating to the health, education and welfare of the child. This is referred to as legal custody. The court must also decide where the child will have and how the parents will share the physical time with the child. This component is referred to as physical custody. Missouri custody laws provide that the court is required to consider all relevant factors including: The wishes of the child’s parents as to custody and the proposed parenting plan submitted by both parties;The needs of the child for a frequent, continuing and meaningful relationship with both parents and the ability and willingness of parents to actively perform their functions as mother and father for the needs of the child;The interaction and interrelationship of the child with parents, siblings, and any other person who may significantly affect the child’s best interests;Which parent is more likely to allow the child frequent, continuing and meaningful contact with the other parent;The child’s adjustment to the child’s home, school, and community;The mental and physical health of all individuals involved, including any history of abuse of any individuals involved;The intention of either parent to relocate the principal residence of the child; and The wishes of a child as to the child’s custodian."

So if you aren’t going to work, and you aren’t independently wealthy (*ahem*) how do you pay for it? That’s where today’s topic comes in…Free Money I’m guessing that got your attention. Free money? Yes. The synonyms for it are grants scholarships. If you haven’t had to finance something like a degree before – maybe your parents had a college fund or you did the community college + work thing – it’s time you learned about free money, because it’s the best kind (duh). Grant is a general term for a gift of money – often, but not always from a government – that is awarded for specific purposes. Scholarships are gifts of money that are more specifically for study, and are given to students who meet specific criteria.

If you have questions about tax breaks for students for 2010 please use our Ask A Tax Question form and we will be able to answer your questions as quickly as possible. Thank you for stopping by Fiscal Tax.com!Student loan interest can be deducted from taxable income on the Federal tax return. Student loan interest is the interest paid during the tax year on any loan taken out to pay for higher education expenses. To qualify for the deduction, the expenses must have been paid for the taxpayer or a dependent who was enrolled in an eligible education institution at least half time. The education expenses themselves can be deducted separately – this deduction is for the interest paid on loans taken to pay the expenses. Any loan taken out to pay higher education expenses qualifies, as long as it was not obtained from a relative. Most loans that are taken out specifically for college expenses will send the taxpayer a form 1098-E, Student Loan Interest Statement, after the end of the tax year. The amount of student loan interest is shown in Box 1 of this statement. To find the amount of the deduction, the taxpayer should add the amounts from Box 1 of all of the 1098-E statements received, and add any student loan interest paid but not shown on a 1098-E. For example, if a taxpayer took out a loan to pay for the college expenses of a dependent, the interest paid on that loan is deductible."

"text": "0Over the last few years, I have had to put phone and network cables into many types of buildings. Many of these cables were pulled through conduit in brand new or newly remodeled buildings. Some were laid in commercially produced cable trays in mostly uncluttered surroundings. The most challenging of these cable runs were pulled into areas of buildings where no need for them was ever envisioned. After doing a number of these jobs, I decided, “There has to be an easier way to do this,” and set out to find it. These are a few of the best techniques I identified. Start with the basics When pulling CAT 5 (and other types) of network cable, it is important to remember a few things. The small gauge conductors inside unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cables are easily broken when too much force is applied to them while you're pulling them. Most manufacturers recommend that no more than 35 to 50 pounds of pressure be applied to this type of cable. Also, these types of cable shouldn't be bent sharply around corners."

At this point you will have to replace the whole light fixture and wiring. If you have two lights tied together than you will have to wire each light independently to test which light is tripping the GFI. Step 2TURN OFF POWER - Before working on your light fixture, be sure to turn OFF power to your lights at the circuit breaker. Step 3DISCONNECT LIGHT WIRES - Locate the power junction box for your lights. It will normally be next to the house close to the pool control box.

"text": "Check out some other projects from our technical library: Pelican Parts bought a 2001 C320 (W203) project car from an online auction, sight unseen and with no warranty or promises of any kind. When the car arrived one of the first things I found wrong was that the trunk would not open. I was hoping some of the missing engine accessories would be in the trunk so it was imperative that I get it open. Next I began the process of elimination, the electronic key would not work, the trunk switch on the driver side door did not work and the mechanical key didn't offer any help. After checking all of the usual suspects and eliminating electrical issues, I came to the conclusion that something was broken within the latch/lock mechanism that was jamming the trunk closed. The other problem was that the car did not have the split rear seat and absolutely no way to get into the trunk from the inside of the car. If you have tried all other options from jumping up and down on the trunk to boosting the battery and find yourself with a stuck trunk and no way to get inside it to open it here is what I did. First disconnect the battery and secure the ground cable so it can not make accidental contact with the battery while working. The next thing I did was determine that I needed to get access to the cable that goes from the locking/latching mechanism to the lift handle in the hopes that I could physically pull the cable and get it to release. At this point I was hoping the cable had broken off the lift handle portion and I just needed to be able to pull it to open the trunk."

Its tacky surface makes finding the right position easy, and an amplified option is available for tough locations.$48 * from Amazon$40 from Antennas Direct*At the time of publishing, the price was $40. The Eclipse can pull in free UHF and VHF HDTV channels within about a 15 to 20 mile radius (and can be purchased with a 20-d B active amplifier if you need more reach). The 12-foot coax cable for connecting to the TV is built in (so you won’t lose it) and long enough that it will probably be more than sufficient to position in most rooms (especially if you’re mounting it behind or above your TV). And if you have the antenna out in the open, it doesn’t look like something you hang laundry on. Also Great Channel Master Flatenna A solid performer at a bargain price The Flatenna didn’t pull in as many channels as strongly as the Eclipse, but it held its own against much more expensive antennas, and the price can’t be beat.$20 * from Amazon*At the time of publishing, the price was $16. If you want to save even more money with your cord cutting, or if the Eclipse isn’t available, the Channel Master Flatenna is even cheaper and performed admirably in both our test locations, especially in New York City."

"text": "\"The logging industry has evolved immensely over the years, and so has the equipment they use. A skidder is a piece of heavy machinery that pulls cut trees out of a forest, and it, too, has evolved since its early days. While in the past, a skidder was pulled by horses and the log dangled beneath the machine, allowing the log to \"\"skid\"\" along the ground as it was pulled, today's skidders are far more sophisticated, efficient, and heavy-duty. Almost all versions of the skidder today have heavy duty tires or tracks and can move a larger amount of trees more quickly than previous versions. Today, there are generally two types of commonly-used skidders: cable skidders and grapple skidders. A cable skidder uses a series of cables that must be wrapped around the logs to be moved by hand. Therefore, cable skidders typically necessitate a second operator outside of the machine who can wrap the cables. While this is considered less efficient than other methods, there are certain advantages to the cable skidder: if logs are located in difficult-to-access locations or on hillsides, it may prove much easier to have a second operator wrap the cables by hand rather than using a grapple skidder. Grapple skidders do not necessitate a second operator. Instead, they use a tongs-like grappling system attached to a boom to lift and move logs."

Cable Wakeboarding is a kind of watersports which helps to exercise all muscles in a human body and gives exceptional extreme sensations while being one of the safest sports suitable for people of every age!The basic principles in Cable Wakeboarding are the same as in water ski or wakeboarding. The only difference is the method to pull the sportsman. Cable wakeboarding is a surface water sport where the participants are not pulled by a motorboat but by an overhead cable from the system of cables and a winch. Due to this, Cable Wakeboarding has a number of advantages. Firstly, it is easier to learn to balance due to equal pulling speed in Cable Wakeboarding while when towed behind a motorboat there is an acceleration from the very beginning. Furthermore, 10 people can ride at the same time with the same electric motor, while only one or two persons can ski simultaneously when using a motorboat. Another important advantage to cable wakeboarding is the dramatic reduction in the cost for its participants since you don’t need a boat. Besides, cable wakeboarding is an environmentally friendly kind of sports. The cable system is run by the use of electricity."

"text": "\"Electrical Wiring Do wires need to be flatmatt_r November 22, 2007I was running 12/2 along my joists...and when I pull the wire from the coil, it has a natural twist to it. My perfectionist side says to untwist them so the romex lays flat along the joist along its entire run, but this has been frustrating at best. Is it OK to just staple at the required footages and make sure it if flat at the staple point, but between the staples it can twist? The 12/2 has been difficult to untwist, I am finding myself pulling it down from the joist area where I snaked it through the various obstacles, then I wrestle it flat, then attempt to reinstall where it tends to get messed up again. I seems the first pull of the coil is the best look. Email Save Comment 9 Like Comments (9)Thank you for reporting this comment. Undobigbird_1You need to either use a cable spool dispenser to unravel cable without twisting, or use a home-brew method such as suspending the cable between studs on a broomstick to unroll it. Pulling the cable off a spool lying on the floor will guarantee the cable will be twisted every time. The spool has to rotate as cable is being peeled off for it not to twist. To answer your original question, there is nothing physically wrong with having twisted cable, but as you infer, it sure doesn't look very professional."

Preface: When the boat is manufactured, the carpet is glued to the deck before any seats or other items are assembled on the boat. Therefore we will do the reverse, take the boat apart, replace the carpet and then re-assemble the boat. Keep in mind, This is the right way to do the job and have a professional result that you can be proud of. You may want to take some pictures as you do this to show your friends and as a reference when putting the boat back together. This is what we are going to do, details listed below in order.

"text": "Cable Row Technique January 13, 2009 by lylemcd 19 Comments The mid-back (and lats) make up a considerable amount of muscle mass in the body and training those muscles groups effectively should be a key part of any good training program. In terms of maintaining good shoulder health and posture, along with developing musculature that contributes significantly to overall mass; training the back properly is key. Unfortunately, many trainees either pay little attention to the back or train it so ineffectively as to make that training, well…ineffective. Today I want to look at some common cable row variants noting that most of the comments I’m going to make can be equally applied to barbell or dumbbell rowing or even various rowing machines. So don’t get hung up on the fact that I took pictures of a cable using specific attachments, it’s the mechanics of the different movements that is the key. Muscles Targeted in the Cable Row Cable rows can hit a variety of different muscles depending on the specific variant performed. Lats, mid-back (teres/rhomboids), traps, biceps, rear delts, and spinal erectors can all be hit in one fashion or another depending on the type of row done. Even the triceps long-head (which is involved in shoulder extension) gets some work from certain types of rows. Basically, as one of the ‘big’ compound movements, rows can work a lot of stuff in a very small amount of time. Basic Technique in the Cable Row First I want to show the basic starting and ending position for a parallel grip row."

Now the owner and I are going to go around the house and try to find it, but how can we measure whether there is a signal / potential on a cable without connecting a TV to it? I've read that you need a spectrum analyzer to measure signal strength, but I don't need that, I just need to know if there's any signal at all. I've also read that you can check cables with a multimeter, but you need both ends for that, and they are impossible to bring close together in our case (the cables are in walls etc.) ( This is in the Netherlands, in case they have different standards there than e.g. the US)electrical coaxshare improve this questionedited Jun 22 '12 at 13:05asked Jun 22 '12 at 12:29Bart van Heukelom153 1 1 7possible duplicate of Cable Signal Testers – BMitch ♦ Jun 22 '12 at 12:41@BMitch I don't need to know the actual signal strength – Bart van Heukelom Jun 22 '12 at 12:473Well you kinda do ;) No strength = no signal.

Steps1 Determine which method is the most desirable: direct burial of cable under soil, PVC electrical pipe (PVC) buried under soil with conductors installed in pipe, or aerial method. Each has its own benefits and detractors. Please read the entire article to help you decide which method will work best for you.2 Direct burial of type \"\"UF\"\" cable under soil is probably the most common and least expensive method. It provides for hot (s), neutral and grounding conductors all inside a durable, sunlight and moisture resistant encasement or \"\"jacket\"\". UF type cable looks very similar to \"\"NM\"\" (Romex) cable, but differs in that the individual conductors are \"\"flooded\"\" with the jacket material found on NM cable. Thus, there is no thin, easy-to-remove outer jacket like NM cable, but rather the conductors and their insulation must be removed from the \"\"jacket\"\" (learning to do this may take a little time - practice with left over cable before attempting on installed cable). Direct burial cable requires at least an 18 inch (45.7 cm) deep trench in earth between the origin and termination of the lateral run. Most trenches should be dug to a depth that is below the frost line. Check with your inspector in your area to determine the minimum depth required.3 After ensuring the minimum depth along the entire length, lay type \"\"UF\"\" cable in the trench."

Not all beach weddings are casual, and the weather isn't always sunny and in the seventies. Plan ahead to make sure your attire is appropriate. Invitation Attire Guidelines Although proper etiquette states that invitations should not mention a dress code, it is often becoming necessary for the modern couple. With wedding themes and styles ranging from costume to elegant to country, it can be hard for guests to discern proper attire without a little help. For beach weddings, looks can range from extremely casual to black tie. Guests should first check the wedding invitation to find out if there is a notation about the formality or attire for the wedding. Black Tie or Black Tie Optional The line \"\"black tie optional\"\" suggests a formal beach wedding, usually in the evening. Women should wear a long formal dress. Dark grays, browns, navies, purples, burgundies or greens are appropriate color choices."

"text": "\"Times have changed since the days when most weddings were morning church affairs, with a “wedding breakfast” following. Consequently, what people wear to a wedding has changed, as well. Wedding wear runs the gamut from very casual to black-tie: it all depends on the kind of wedding. “Destination weddings” have become very popular, and you can wear almost anything to this type of event. For an outdoor, ski-themed wedding at a resort in Colorado, the bride and groom might wear black and white ski suits, with the guests wearing similarly warm clothing. A wedding at the ski lodge would probably dictate casual dresses for women and slacks for men. Similar attire would also be appropriate at a beach wedding. Guests can be guided by the specific destination and plan what to wear accordingly. Another rule guiding what to wear is the formality of the wedding, which includes the time and place. An evening wedding in a church or similarly formal venue will mean suits and ties for the men and cocktail-style dresses for the ladies."

Steve left them and moved back down to the house they are now heading towards so Ronnie and Jonah can spend the summer with him. When they arrive it is obvious that Ronnie does not want to be there at all but Jonah is excited to see his dad again."

If you pick a pair of wedding shoes that’s uncomfortable, unflattering, or downright painful, you’ll be sorry you did. But, if you take a few of these wedding shoe tips to heart you’ll keep you feet happy, accentuate your style, and you’ll be able to dance the night away. Read on to find out which seven wedding shoe mistakes you should avoid PLUS find out which three must-have shoe accessories you’ll want need for your wedding. But first… here are the wedding shoes I wore for my own wedding. They have a little bit of a vintage feel and I loved how simple yet elegant they were. I love the knotted detail and these were insanely comfortable. Plus, they don’t have too high of a heel (I was so nervous about tripping down the aisle). They do sit in a shoe box in my closet because I can’t bare to wear them and ruin them, but I think I’ll make an exception for our anniversary this year. :) They’re by Caparros ."

The 30 family and friends he invited thought they were attending a quiet Sunday lunch – until the registrar arrived. Third time lucky! Len Goodman and Sue Barrett arrive for their surprise wedding at Mosimann's in London Goodman, head judge on BBC1's dance show, had been with Sue Barrett, 47, a dance teacher, for more than ten years. It's third time lucky for Goodman. At 28, he married his champion dance partner Cherry, but they divorced a few years later. He then had a long-term partner, Lesley, with whom he had a son, James.

Sans the bit about sandals and flip flops, all of this advise lends itself well to any casual outdoor wedding. Steps1 A beach wedding is nothing to drag your old black suit into. Wear a suit in a light colored, breathable fabric like a cotton or linen in a khaki or tan color.2 Choose a long sleeved button down shirt in a cream/white or salmon/pink. These colors lend well to the casual beach theme and at least one of them will look good on almost anyone.3 Forgo the tie! A tie just isn't beachy and leans far too much on the \"\"business\"\" rather than \"\"casual\"\" side. Instead wear a white undershirt (under your button down) and leave the top one or two buttons open.4 Enjoy the one time that is acceptable for a man to wear anything other than dress shoes to a wedding. Feel free to wear nice leather sandals or flip flops in tan, khaki or brown leather.5 Roll your sleeves up to just below your elbows for that casual \"\"why yes, I do always look this good\"\" look and enjoy the wedding!You're helping people by reading wiki Howwiki How's mission is to help people learn, and we really hope this article helped you.

"text": "So you’ve been invited to a wedding and there isn’t any mention of what exactly you should be wearing on the invitation. If you don’t know the bride and groom well enough to simply pick up the phone and ask them what kind of attire is appropriate, or even worse, you didn’t get an invitation because you’re somebody’s plus-one date, that wedding invitation is probably making you feel pretty nervous. After all, it can be pretty difficult to for a man to figure out what to wear to a wedding. While you may not know what to wear to a wedding right at this moment, there are some basic guidelines that can help put your fears to rest. Learn them now and you’ll be set for a lifetime that will almost certainly be full of wedding invitations for years to come. What Time of Year Is It?sallaurettas Sal Lauretta for Men Follow Comment Save41 likes38 months ago Instagram Determining what to wear to a wedding has a lot to do with the time of year when the wedding will be held. It might seem obvious that you don’t want to wear a 100% wool suit to an August wedding held outdoors, but many men don’t consider the time of year when picking their wardrobe for such a rare event. However, you can’t simply assume that a summer suit is appropriate for summer weddings or that a heavy wool suit will be fine for any fall or winter event. There’s a lot more to consider than just the material the suit is made of, though that should definitely come into play if you want to be comfortable. You’ll also look out of place compared to other guests in a suit that’s inappropriate for the season."

"text": "\"What to Wear to a Wedding: Wedding Outfits for Men and Women Invited to a wedding and not sure what to wear? We've got you covered with a few fashion dos and don'ts.by Amanda Elser The most important thing to remember when shopping for a wedding is you want to look cool and stylish, but you don't want to distract from the bride or draw attention for the wrong reasons. That's why we recommend you use the wording on the invitation or the time of year to determine your wedding attire. But first, let us tell you the ground rules for dressing for a wedding. Rule number one: Don't ever, ever wear white to a wedding. You should also avoid wearing white to prewedding festivities, like the engagement party, shower or rehearsal dinner. The only exception to this rule is if there's an all-white dress code for one of the celebrations. Rule number two: Always be respectful to religious affiliations. If you know the wedding is going to be held in a Catholic church, it might not be a bad idea to cover bare arms with a sweater and avoid showing too much leg or cleavage. Rule number three: You can wear black to a wedding—it's not off-limits."

"text": "Apr 19th Wedding Guest Attire | Wedding Dress Code Bridal Fashion While I absolutely love receiving a gorgeous wedding invitation in the mail, most often than not, I’m then left with the dreaded “what should I wear” question. Decoding the difference between ‘black tie’, ‘formal’, ‘semi-formal’, ‘cocktail’, ‘smart casual’, ‘casual’, ‘beach chic’ (the list could go on) attire as requested by the invitation can leave you with a big fat question mark tempting you to RSVP “no”. So when a darling reader of mine suggested a post on ‘what to wear to weddings’, I saw this as a great opportunity to finally decipher the confusing wedding dress code and settle it once and for all. In order to decode the wedding dress code, there are a few factors you should first consider: What time is the wedding? Where is the wedding and reception to be held? What does the invitation look like? By answering these questions, you’ll be able to tell yourself whether it leans on the more formal side, whether a little embellishments need to be added to your outfit or whether you need to go get your hair done by a professional and so on. Black Tie or Formal Black tie is probably one of the more popular dress codes reserved for evening weddings. For men, a black tuxedo or dinner suit with matching trousers worn with a black bow tie (a black tie would also be appropriate) is the standard. Women can channel the Oscars for this kind of wedding with a glamorous evening gown (such as the Honey & Beau Spinning Maxi Dress – below left) or an elegant cocktail dress, perhaps with some embellishments (such as the J Crew Rosalind Dress – below right), pretty jewelry and coiffed hair."

"text": "How to Dress for a Summer Beach Wedding Ahhhhh, summer weddings on the Outer Banks. The wedding couple has spent many hours picking out a perfect beach location and deciding what he/she is going to wear at their Outer Banks wedding. But, what outfit is right for a guest? What should you wear so that you look good and yet don’t take away from the happy couple’s big day? Beach weddings are often more casual affairs than church weddings; however, dressing for a wedding on the beach can take some planning in order not to upstage the bride. Here are some tips on what to wear to an Outer Banks wedding - taking time and location into consideration. Choose your attire. For guests to a beach wedding, casual clothing may be appropriate. However, this is still a wedding, so guests should dress nicer than they would if they were running errands on the weekend. For a summer beach wedding, you’ll definitely want to wear something that moves and breathes well."

"text": "What to Wear to a South Florida Wedding Share is Caring... What to Wear to a South Florida Wedding Most fall weddings in South Florida are on the beach and because of this your outfit options are much different than most places in the country during this same time period. I recently went to a wedding in Vero Beach on the beach in the middle of the Florida Winter. The fall and winter in Florida is much different than other places in United States by as much as 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The weather could be from 30 degrees to 80 degrees one day to the next. The good part is that you will not likely be dealing with a ton of rain. Rain is a summer occurrence as Florida stays mostly dry in Fall and Winter. My suggestion for a fall or winter wedding in South Florida is a printed dress with some fall colors worked in with a matching pashmina in case you encounter a 30 degree day or serious air conditioning. The AC is more likely than the 30 degree day. I would suggest brands like Trina Turk or if you did not have time to find one at home, try local store, Angela Moore in Manalapan & Worth Avenue. As for the shoes, go for metallic and comfortable so you can dance."

The quinceañera is a traditional celebration of life and gratitude to God on the occasion of the fifteenth birthday of a young Hispanic woman. The ritual emphasizes her passage from childhood to adulthood. The family usually requests a Mass or a blessing to be held in the Church. The rite is frequently celebrated in several countries in the Americas, including Mexico, Central and South America and the Caribbean. It is frequently requested by Hispanic Catholics in the dioceses of the United States of America. 2. What is the origin of the quinceañera? The tribes of Meso-America, possibly the Mayas and Toltecs, celebrated elaborate rites of passage for their young men and women."

"text": "The tradition of saving the top tier of the wedding cake dates back to the 19th century. At that time, it was common to expect a baby within a year of the wedding, so the top tier was kept to celebrate the child's christening. Many couples still save the top tier as a reminder of their wedding day and to celebrate their first anniversary. Gentle thawing over 24 hours preserves the texture of the cake when you want to enjoy it.credit: redstallion/i Stock/Getty Images How To Defrost A Wedding Cake Tips Have a backup plan in case your cake hasn't survived its time in the freezer. Be ready to laugh it off if it tastes like the steaks you froze last month. Move the cake from the freezer to the coldest part of your refrigerator. Remove the aluminum foil and plastic wrap from the cake to prevent condensation from ruining the texture of the cake. Place it in a cake box or another loosely covered container. Return it to the refrigerator to finish thawing. Take the cake out of the refrigerator and let it sit, uncovered, on the counter to come to room temperature."

As the promos for Thursday’s Will & Grace had so heavily hinted, Karen’s maid, sparring partner and mother figure didn’t survive the fall finale. TV Reboots and Revivals: A Complete Guide Launch Gallery Sure, “Rosario’s Quinceanera” started off frisky and funny, with Karen assuming that, since her cleaning lady had gone AWOL, it must be “Maids Eat Free Day at Applebee’s” or something. And when Rosario finally phoned, her boss turned the snark up to 11, warning that she’d “better be in the hospital.” The thing was, she was — she’d had a heart attack!In the waiting room, while Jack played out the “Give my daughter the shot!” scene from Terms of Endearment, substituting Rosario’s Jell-O for painkillers, Grace, as is her habit, made the crisis all about herself (right down to manufacturing symptoms of a coronary). In fact, the only thing that distracted her from her imaginary chest pains was Will’s revelation that he’d signed a lease on the office next to hers, thus doubling their business’ space… without first discussing it with his partner. When Karen arrived at the hospital, Riverdance Bridget in tow, she announced that, once the patient was sprung, she’d be throwing her the quinceanera that she’d never had. Wasn’t it a little, er, late (in life) for that?"

Answer by Village Vicarage Confidence votes 1.9KThe Traditional Quinceanera celebration holds special meaning and has strong religious significance. It is the coming of age and celebrates a girl's loyalty and commitment to God. Consequently, attire should be commensurate with what you would expect at any religious service. Formal is not necessary, but smart attire, is indeed appropriate. Clothes, such as buttoned shirts, nice trousers, clean and polished shoes, combed hair, anything that looks appropriate for such an important event. Gifts are the norm, particularly those that celebrate the girl's turning sixteen. The Traditional Ceremony gifts are special signs of loyalty and commitment to God, family and the community. And Where the celebration includes the Mass of Thanksgiving, the gifts are presented to the priest for special blessing."

"text": "Home » Knot The Groom.com Blog » The History and Origins of the Quinceañera The History and Origins of the Quinceañera Posted on October 12th, 2011 by Mandy Webster In our last post on the Quinceañera, we answered the question, “What is a Quinceañera anyway?” Today we’ll explore the history and origins of the Quinceañera. So, let’s start with the word, “Quinceañera” itself. According to Voices , the Journal of New York Folklore, “The Quinceaños, or la fiesta Quinceañera, is a rite of passage for fifteen-year-old Latina girls.” The word, “Quinceañera,” is derived from the Spanish words, “quince,” or “fifteen,” and “años,” meaning “years. ”Photos by: Quinceanera Butterfly Cake Topper , Pink Purity Quinceañera Invitations , Chandelier Frosted-Glass Tealight Holder Favors , Renaissance Studios Photography, Quinceanera Fashionista Table Runner, White Dyeable Shoes , Piper Warlick Photography But where did the modern Quinceañera spectacular originate? What is the history of the Quinceañera? While some attribute the origins of the Quinceañera to the ancient customs of the Aztecs, the basic ceremony and meaning have been replicated in a variety of cultural initiation rites around the world. Some even attribute the tradition to similar court practices originating in France, Austria, and other European aristocracies. Did the Quinceañera originate in South America, or is it a blending of many centuries of cultures from both South America and Europe?"

Information here collected from Internet: Introduction, Celebration, Outline of Mass and Readings, Two main parts: Mass and the pageant. Gifts. Introduction The Quinceañera or Quince Años (sometimes represented XV Años, meaning \"\"fifteen years\"\") is, in some Spanish-speaking regions of the Americas, a young woman's celebration of her fifteenth birthday, which is celebrated in a unique and different way from her other birthdays. In some countries, such as Puerto Rico or Peru, the word Quinceañero is used instead of Quinceañera when referring to the celebration. The word is also used to refer to the young woman whose 15th birthday is being celebrated (analogous to the word cumpleañera for \"\"birthday girl\"\"). The closest equivalents to the Quinceañera in the English-speaking world are the sweet sixteen or, in more affluent communities, a debutante ball at the age of eighteen. In some cases, the birthday girl has a choice of a quinceañera, a trip, or a car. Celebration This celebration marks the transition from the childhood to womanhood."

"text": "\"Back to support page Ignition Systems Basics to High Performance The job of an ignition system is to generate the spark energy needed to ignite the air/fuel mixture in an engine's cylinder. The main components of this system consist of an ignition coil, coil driver, distributor, spark plug wires, and spark plugs. This page will concentrate on the generation of the high voltage needed to produce a spark, and will begin with a basic ignition style and progress to performance types. Magnetos The most basic form of an ignition system is the magneto. Although it was one of the first styles built, it remains in use today. Using the example of a small engine such as a lawn mower or chainsaw, a basic magneto begins with a hub containing magnets which is attached to the crankshaft. As the crankshaft turns these magnets spin past a primary coil of wire to produce a current similar to a generator. The faster the engine runs the more power is generated by the magneto. A set of contacts (points), with a condenser to reduce contact arc wear, switches the current on and off in this primary coil. This process induces a pulse of a few hundred volts into a secondary coil each time the contacts open."

"text": "BMW Ignition Coils Ignition coils are key to the efficiency and performance of your BMW. They're just as important as spark plugs. Starting with the M42 engine in 1990, BMW's ignition systems use an individual coil for each cylinder (coil-on-plug ignition). While the improved performance and smoothness is without question, these coils have a shorter lifespan than the older single-coil designs. With a faulty coil, the spark plug is not burning the air/fuel mixture properly and that can lead to problems anywhere in the engine and exhaust (including catalytic converters and O2 sensors). Problems with one or more coils will cause a fault code but not always a check engine light. A misfire code may be related to an ignition coil but could be from other things as well. Sometimes a visual inspection of a coil and coil boot will give an indication of a failure. You can also move coils around to different cylinder banks to see if the misfire code follows a suspect coil. We suggest always having one or two coils on hand to keep as spares."

If I understand things correctly, the only difference is the internal resistance of the coil, with 12V coils having a higher internal resistance to limit the total current draw across the points to to about the same current draw as that of a 6V system running a 6V rated coil . Is this correct? Also, how much current across the points is considered acceptable? Would running a 6V rated coil on a 12V system without adding a resister to the coil to reduce the current draw, cause the point life to unreasonably short? 2) Second what is the difference between ignition coils used in point-type and electronic ignitions? I'm ^guessing* that points-type coils have a higher internal resistance than coils intended for use with electronically-triggered ignitions? Is this correct?"

View repair cost for my car Get a repair estimate for your car Submit What is an ignition coil? Ignition coils are part of the ignition system, and send high voltage electricity to the spark plugs, which is necessary for a powerful spark. How does the ignition coil work? For most modern vehicles, the computer times the ignition coils by using the camshaft and crankshaft position sensors, and there is one ignition coil power cylinder, mounted on the top of the valve cover. Older vehicles are much more complicated, and there are many more components. The ignition system for those vehicles begins when the coil receives battery voltage, and transforms it into high voltage. The distributor rotor receives high voltage electricity from the ignition coil, and sends it through the distributor cap through an electrode on the tip of the rotor."

"text": "\"Back to Car Parts.com Classroom on the Web Clickhere to tell us what you think A Short Course on Ignition Systems:by Charles Ofria The purpose of the ignition system is to create a spark that will ignite the fuel-air mixture in the cylinder of an engine. It must do this at exactly the right instant and do it at the rate of up to several thousand times per minute for each cylinder in the engine. If the timing of that spark is off by a small fraction of a second, the engine will run poorly or not run at all. To learn more about how an engine works, go to our Short Course on Automobile Engines. The ignition system sends an extremely high voltage to the spark plug in each cylinder when the piston is at the top of its compression stroke. The tip of each spark plug contains a gap that the voltage must jump across in order to reach ground. That is where the spark occurs. The voltage that is available to the spark plug is somewhere between 20,000 volts and 50,000 volts or better. The job of the ignition system is to produce that high voltage from a 12 volt source and get it to each cylinder in a specific order, at exactly the right time. Let's see how this is done."

Most Electronic Ignitions have four parts that can fail. trigger (pickup) coil, a source coil, a CDI unit ( Black Box) and an ignition coil.

If the Switching Signal is present, then you now know the coil pack is BAD. If the Switching Signal is NOT present... then you can eliminate the coil pack as the source of the problem. OK, this is what you'll do: With an appropriate tool, pierce the wire (circuit) of the ignition coil's connector labeled with the number 1 in the illustration above. This is the wire that feeds the Switching Signal to the individual ignition coil that fires cylinders 3 and 4. Attach the probe-end of your Test Light to that tool.

For more info go here. This how-to outlines how to install a GM HEI ignition module in place of your stock distributor Ignition module. As you may or may not know, the stock internal-coil distributor on the MX-3 is very failure prone, this is almost always caused by a faulty ignition module. How Do I know my ignition module is bad? For starters...if you are driving and your car suddenly cuts out, you wait and a few minutes later it starts back up, it is most likely the igntion module. If you aren't so lucky, you will be stranded & require a tow (i've been stranded twice in the past thanks the the POS stock module). If your module does blow out, your only real option is to buy a new or remanufactured distributor which costs at least $150 and that doesnt' even guarentee you won't get stranded in the future (i'm on my 4th distributor in just over a year of driving my KLZE mx3)If you pull the OBD-I code from your ECU after an ignitor failure, you should get the \"\"cam angle sensor\"\" code What can I expect after performing this mod? Well for one, your car will be more reliable (assuming you don't do a halfassed job of wiring it all)."

"text": "Understanding, Testing and Calibration of Ignition Coil Dwell Time Aim of this article: Most aftermarket engine management systems incorporate basic settings that relate to the control of the ignition coils. It’s been our experience that very few people really seem to understand the implications of getting these wrong or the benefits of optimising them. We hope to explain fully, in simple terms, what coil dwell control is all about; the systems used, coil and vehicle characteristics effecting it, effects on ignition performance and most importantly how to test and work out the optimum settings for a given coil. For the electrical ‘purists’ out there, some of my descriptions will be verging on oversimplification so please be tolerant. The article is not aimed at those with a Ph D in electrical engineering!Dwell time is really only relevant to inductive ignition systems (so called ‘conventional’ systems), this information does not relate to Capacitor Discharge Ignition (CDI). I will also avoid coil and ignition discussions that depart from what’s needed to understand dwell control. Energy storage and measuring, coil selection, voltage demand vs availability, CDI, multi-sparking, high voltage diodes, effect of system loadings, spark formation phases etc. will be topics discussed in future articles. What is “dwell”: Dwell, or ‘dwell time’ in ignition systems refers to the period of time that the coil is turned on, ie that current is flowing through the primary winding and the magnetic field is building up in the coil. In the now obsolete points systems (Kettering systems) it is the time the points are closed, in our modern systems it is when the transistor (or other electronic switching device such as a MOSFET or IGBT) is on."

"text": "How to Convert to a Crank Trigger Ignition Trigger Effect: 10 facts about converting to a crank trigger ignition—and even going distributorless Barry Kluczyk Apr 26, 2016 Share View Full Gallery Precise ignition timing is essential for high-performance engine tuning and ensuring your small-block or big-block is delivering every horsepower within its capability. Since the era of poodle skirts, flattops, and Ed Sullivan, that’s been handled by a camshaft-driven distributor. A gear at the rear of the camshaft meshes with another on the distributor shaft, spinning it and a rotor beneath the cap (at half the speed of the crankshaft’s rotation) triggering—or distributing—electrical energy from the ignition coil to each spark plug per the engine’s firing order. As mechanical systems go, it’s a feather in the cap of man’s engineering prowess, particularly when you consider the speed engines are capable of achieving. There are cons to this type of ignition system, too. Regardless of whether you’ve ditched original-style points for an electronic conversion or changed to an HEI-type distributor, timing accuracy typically erodes over time due to wear in the associated components. The cam and distributor shaft gears wear after constant contact, for example, while a stretched timing chain at the front of the engine can affect the camshaft’s rotational relationship to the crankshaft, throwing off the timing. And at high rpm in a performance engine, the camshaft can deflect inside the cylinder block and “spark scatter” inside the distributor cap can affect the timing and spark distribution, too, affecting timing in both cases. Of course, you can always adjust your engine’s timing periodically, but that doesn’t always address high-rpm timing issues and doesn’t help at all with spark scatter. A more contemporary method of ensuring spark-timing accuracy across the rpm band is basing it on the crankshaft’s rotation rather than the camshaft."

The type of ignition module your talking about (just 4 pins) has the basic of function of setting the dwell. The old point ignition system had a mechanical dwell setting to set the amount of time (which was measured degrees) the spark plug was sparking. The ignition module has a saturation time that sets the dwell of the spark plug sparking. The saturation time is the about of time the ignition coil is discharged. The saturation time is measured in milli-seconds ( 1 / 1000 of a second is a milli-second)."

This is Part 1 of this two-part series, which describes an ignition coil replacement on a Thunderbird Sport. Part 2, Triumph Motorcycle Ignition Coil Replacement describes a slightly different procedure for the ignition coil replacement on the late and lamented Triumph Trophy. Note that these tips can apply to most modern Triumphs and other brands of motorcycles. I noticed over a period of several weeks that my ’98 Thunderbird Sport started hesitating and nearly stalling when accelerating from 1000 RPM to about 4000 RPM. At first, fuel related problems were the suspected cause, since the engine acted as though starving for fuel. Fuel changes seemed to make a difference, but occasionally the engine would still seem to stutter when running steady between 2500 and 3500. If the engine were twisted up to 4000 RPM or above, the engine ceased stuttering. Also, the fuel mileage had dropped significantly, especially on long rides. During a visit with Paul Zuniga of Born Again Bikes (see “Resources” section below) at a local motorcycle show, he recommended swapping the ignition coils for Nology units (also below)."

"text": "CDI Power Supply Rae-San CDI Power Supply Module WHAT IS IT? This is the original “Raymodule”. It’s a small metal box – 112mm x 61mm x 31mm that allows your CDI bike to continue running when the high voltage stator coils have failed – without replacing the stator. Some bikes – most notably the Honda CX require the complete removal of the engine to replace the stator. WHAT DOES IT DO? The CDI Power power module replaces the Stator high voltage coils by generating the necessary high DC voltage – around 150 to 200V DC from the bikes 12V system. It also does some clever stuff to sense when the ignition fires and removes the voltage – allowing the ignition SCR in the CDI to turn off, and then after it detects that the SCR is off, re-applies the power – but at a controlled charge rate to charge the capacitors back up in the CDI ready for the next ignition event. It does not provide any different ignition timing as the original CDI and ignition triggers are still used, it allows the factory ignition modules to continue to be used with a failed or failing CDI stator coils. The description here refers to CDI – Capacitive Discharge Ignition. Often motorcycles ignitions are referred to as CDI boxes – when a lot of the time they are NOT."

Ignition coils are part of the ignition system, and send high voltage electricity to the spark plugs, which is necessary for a powerful spark. How does the ignition coil work? For most modern vehicles, the computer times the ignition coils by using the camshaft and crankshaft position sensors, and there is one ignition coil power cylinder, mounted on the top of the valve cover. Older vehicles are much more complicated, and there are many more components. The ignition system for those vehicles begins when the coil receives battery voltage, and transforms it into high voltage. The distributor rotor receives high voltage electricity from the ignition coil, and sends it through the distributor cap through an electrode on the tip of the rotor."

Once the engine cools off it will sometimes start and run fine for a short while then do the same thing again. Often, but not always, the pickup up coil or ignition module [both are under the distributor cap] have to heat up quite a bit before they will act up. I replace about 10 ignition modules for every one pickup coil but either one can cause the same identical stalling problem. I keep a few known good modules around as test units so I can just replace a suspected bad module and road test it to see if it works. Another thing that can go wrong in these distributors are the magnets built into the pole piece. A weak or cracked magnet can cause all kinds of odd problems such as stalling when placed in reverse, misfires over 1,000 rpm, etc. Worn bushings in the distributor can also cause problems. As far as a specific test you can do to see which part is failing? I wish there was a relaible one."

"text": "What Do Green Iguanas Eat? Author: Josipa Pletikosić March 3rd, 2010Green iguanas (iguana iguana) are diurnal animals, which means they are active during the day and sleep during the night. When it comes to food, they are herbivorous, meaning they benefit from eating plants. As pets, their feeding schedule should consist of dark green leafy vegetables such as parsley, dandelion greens, turnip greens... Also, you should feed them green beans, frozen mixed vegetables, bananas, apples, mangos... Speaking of which, fruits shouldn't be the main food given to iguanas since they decrease the scale of calcium and protein. Variety of food is the key but should be given in right amounts – most of it is vegetables, like 2/3, only 1/3 is fruits. Make sure you chop it nicely if you feed baby iguanas, and roughly when it comes to large iguanas. Baby iguanas should be given food on a daily base while grown up iguanas (3 years plus) need food only 2 or 3 times a week. Corn or any kind of lettuce are known as low nutritional valued food, plus they may cause diarrhoea. Believe it or not, humans and green iguanas have some things in common. They like junk food and both species can immediately get hooked on it."

Iguanas that are not trained or tamed in any way may remain wild and may not be very pleasant or even safe to keep as a house pet. The Green Iguana Society recommends that all iguana owners attempt in some way to train and tame iguanas that are kept as house pets, especially in a family environment. Acclimate - To get used to something, to feel comfortable about, to become accustomed to. Whether you have a new baby iguana, a new older iguana, or you have had an iguana that has yet to become tame, you will need to acclimate it if you plan on keeping it as a pet."

A: Quick Answer Anole lizards in the wild feed on small, live insects, including flies, beetles, crickets, moths, butterflies, ants and termites, as well as spiders, slugs, worms and other invertebrates.

They inhabit all of the continents apart from Antarctica, from sea level to heights of 16,500 feet (5000m). Lizards live in diverse environments and are the most geographically widespread of the reptiles. That makes them the largest group of reptiles with about 5000 species. They have walked the earth for some 200 million years. Reptiles have the following physical features: they have vertebrate, lungs, and scales or plates. They are cold-blooded, getting all of their heating from the environment (the sun) which can be deadly during cold spells. What could be good about that? Well, this allows the reptiles to eat much less than a mammal of the same weight might. In the desert, for example, this might be useful in terms of competing for food."

While they may not be completely parasite- or infection-free, a healthy animal's immune system functions strongly and easily keeps the colonies of parasites, bacteria, or fungi under control so that they do not reproduce to such an extent as to interfere with the normal functioning of the body. The skin of a healthy animal looks right for its species. For most reptiles, this means well rounded and filled out, with few or any the lateral folds associated with dehydration. The color is full and clear. A healthy animal behaves normally for the species, alert to its surroundings, thermoregulating during the course of the day, eating, drinking, and defecating on a regular basis based on normal circadian rhythms and digestive cycles. Shedding is regular, occurring every 4-6 weeks or so, sometimes more often for younger animals during the peak growing seasons during the year, more slowly during any annual slow period (for example, the period of most rapid growth for most reptiles occurs in the spring/summer, with slowdowns usually occurring in the winter. For many reptiles, these periods relate to periods of greater and lesser food abundance in the wild, as well as to pre- and post-breeding seasons when the animals would typically feed heavily.

In the Western tradition, all these elements were thought of as properly different in poetry and prose up to the time of the Romantic revolution, when William Wordsworth challenged the distinction in his Romantic manifesto, the Preface to the second (1800) edition of Lyrical Ballads (1798). Wordsworth proposed that a \"\"language near to the language of men\"\" was as appropriate for poetry as it was for prose. This idea was very influential, though more in theory than practice: a special \"\"poetic\"\" vocabulary and mode of metaphor persisted in 19th century poetry. It was deplored by the Modernist poets of the 20th century, who again proposed that there is no such thing as a \"\"prosaic\"\" word unsuitable for poetry.

"text": "\"Glossary Term: Imagery Imagery is the name given to the elements in a poem that spark off the senses. Despite \"\"image\"\" being a synonym for \"\"picture\"\", images need not be only visual; any of the five senses (sight, hearing, touch, taste, smell) can respond to what a poet writes. Examples of non-visual imagery can be found in Ken Smith's 'In Praise of Vodka', where he describes the drink as having \"\"the taste of air, of wind on fields, / the wind through the long wet forest\"\", and James Berry's 'Seashell', which puts the \"\"ocean sighs\"\" right in a listener's ear. A poet could simply state, say, \"\"I see a tree\"\", but it is possible to conjure up much more specific images using techniques such as simile (\"\"a tree like a spiky rocket\"\"), metaphor (\"\"a green cloud riding a pole\"\") or synechdoche (\"\"bare, black branches\"\") - each of these suggests a different kind of tree. Techniques, such as these, that can be used to create powerful images are called figurative language, and can also include onomatopoeia, metonymy and personification. One of the great pleasures of poetry is discovering a particularly powerful image; the Imagists of the early 20th century felt it was the most important aspect, so were devoted to finding strong images and presenting them in the clearest language possible. Of course, not every poem is an Imagist poem, but making images is something that nearly every poem in the Archive does. An interesting contrast in imagery can be found by comparing Alison Croggon's 'The Elwood Organic Fruit and Vegetable Shop' with Allen Ginsberg's 'A Supermarket in California'; although both poets seem to like the shops they write about, Ginsberg's shop is full of hard, bright things, corralled into aisles, featuring neon, tins and freezers, while the organic shop is full of images of soft, natural things rubbing against one another in sunlight. Without it being said explicitly, the imagery makes it clear that the supermarket is big, boxy, and tidy, unlike the cosy Elwood's. This is partly done with the visual images that are drawn, and in part with Croggon's images that mix the senses (this is called synaesthesia), such as the strawberries with their \"\"klaxons of sweetness\"\" or the gardens with \"\"well-groomed scents\"\", having the way the imagery is made correspond with what the imagery shows."

We will take a look at the Lost Generation of writers, the characteristics of their work and the ways in which they represented post-war attitudes both in the U. S. and abroad. Post World War I America World War I, or the Great War, changed American attitudes in ways that weren't anticipated. After having witnessed death and destruction on an unparalleled scale, many young Americans felt a sense of shock at what was perceived as pointless deaths in a war of automatic weaponry and barbaric practices - a war that took place across an ocean. This country that they once knew, a safe childhood playground solidly constructed of patriotism, faith, and morality pre-war, had fallen. What was left was a population of young who felt aimless and scattered, without the kind of direction that led to a purposeful life, and with a whole lot of excessive behavior. These sentiments pervaded many cultural aspects of change in the 1920s, including literature. Writers felt that the old norms were no longer relevant, the old ways of writing no longer relatable."

In this poem a disturbing tension is established between the seriousness of the experience described and the misleadingly light form of the poem. The vocabulary and rhythms which approximate to the colloquial simplicity of conversational speech, the frequently end-stopped lines, the repetitions which have the effect of mockingly counteracting the violence of the meaning, all establish the deliberately flippant note which this poem strives to achieve. These are all devices which also operate in Auden's 'light verse', but the constantly shifting tone of 'Lady Lazarus' is found less frequently in Auden's more cerebral poetry. At times the tone is hysterically strident and demanding: The peanut-crunching crowd Shoves in to see Them unwrap me hand and foot— The big strip tease."

What the college was, or should be -what Meiklejohn hoped to make Amherst into - was a place to be thought of as \"\"liberal,\"\" that is, \"\"essentially intellectual\"\": \"\"The college is primarily not a place of the body, nor of the feelings, nor even of the will; it is, first of all, a place of the mind.\"\" Introducing \"\"the boys\"\" to the intellectual life led for its own sake, would save them from pettiness and dullness, would save them from being one of what Meiklejohn referred to as \"\"the others\"\": There are those among us who will find so much satisfaction in the countless trivial and vulgar amusements of a crude people that they have no time for the joys of the mind. There are those who are so closely shut up within a little round of petty pleasures they that have never dreamed of the fun of reading and conversing and investigating and reflecting. A liberal education would rescue boys from stupidity, its purpose being to draw from that \"\"reality-loving American boy\"\" something like \"\"an intellectual enthusiasm.\"\" But this result could not be achieved, Meiklejohn added, without a thorough reversal of the curriculum: \"\"I should like to see every freshman at once plunged into the problems of philosophy,\"\" he said with enthusiasm.

The visual layout of the poem need not necessarily form a picture, although many concrete poems do. Over the past century, many famous poets have written poems that attempt to depict visually the significance of the words in the poem, from Ezra Pound to E. E. Cummings. However, visual poetry has been around for even longer—the poet and famous children’s author Lewis Carroll wrote a short poem called The Mouse’s Tale, which was written in the shape of (you guessed it), a mouse’s tail. Following, you’ll find some famous, and other not-so-famous, examples of concrete poems. Foundations of Concrete Poetry Concrete poetry has its roots in works of literature coupled with, enhanced by, or written as a series of images. Many medieval authors sought to couple poetry with images (such as Chaucer in his Canterbury Tales ), but the form was lost over time. Baroque “labyrinth poems” used words as the lines in a maze, and the mazes themselves would form intricate and often complex images. William Blake’s “illuminated” works sought to couple the words of poetry inextricably with the beautiful engraved images on a page. When the Futurists began experimenting with poetic forms in the early 1900s, concrete poetry was established as a distinct form, obvious in works such as Tristan Tzara’s Calligramme."

Literary modernism, or modernist literature, has its origins in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, mainly in Europe and North America, and is characterized by a very self-conscious break with traditional ways of writing, in both poetry and prose fiction. Modernists experimented with literary form and expression, as exemplified by Ezra Pound 's maxim to \"\"Make it new.\"\" [ 1] This literary movement was driven by a conscious desire to overturn traditional modes of representation and express the new sensibilities of their time. [ 2] The horrors of the First World War saw the prevailing assumptions about society reassessed, [3] and modernist writers were influenced by such thinkers as Sigmund Freud and Karl Marx, amongst others, who raised questions about the rationality of the human mind.

"text": "Definition of Haiku A haiku is a short poetic form from Japan characterized by juxtaposition, seasonal imagery, and number of on, which are similar to syllables. The form has been adopted into other languages with a focus on the number of syllables; in English, haiku is a three-line poem with phrases of five, seven, and five syllables, respectively. However, in traditional Japanese haiku the most important element was the juxtaposition between different images with a transition via a “cutting word” (known as kireji in Japanese). This cutting word can change the stream of thought or provide a comparison between the different lines. It is similar to the concept of the volta in the sonnet form, or the audible pause in classical poetry known as the caesura . The word haiku comes from hokku, which is the opening verse of an older and longer Japanese poetic form called the renga. Beginning in about the mid-seventeenth century, poets began to create hokku that were independent from longer poetic forms. To differentiate these poetic forms, the poet Masaoka Shiki renamed the standalone hokku a haiku. Thus, while the word comes from the late nineteenth century, the definition of haiku is a few hundred years older. Common Examples of Haiku While the haiku form is relatively strict and thus cannot be found in ordinary speech, it has been adopted into popular culture to some extent in many places outside of Japan."

"text": "Poetry Explications What this handout is about A poetry explication is a relatively short analysis which describes the possible meanings and relationships of the words, images, and other small units that make up a poem. Writing an explication is an effective way for a reader to connect a poem’s plot and conflicts with its structural features. This handout reviews some of the important techniques of approaching and writing a poetry explication, and includes parts of two sample explications. Preparing to write the explication Read the poem silently, then read it aloud (if not in a testing situation). Repeat as necessary. Consider the poem as a dramatic situation in which a speaker addresses an audience or another character. In this way, begin your analysis by identifying and describing the speaking voice or voices, the conflicts or ideas, and the language used in the poem. The large issues Determine the basic design of the poem by considering the who, what, when, where, and why of the dramatic situation: What is being dramatized? What conflicts or themes does the poem present, address, or question? Who is the speaker?"

"text": "ISSUE: Spring 1975In another essay, “What Was Modern Poetry?” I spent almost all the time on what I called imagism—not the movement called Des Imagistes, but, much more broadly, the many and recurrent movements in modernist poetry that had in common a wish to exalt the senses, especially the sense of sight, at the expense of the mind. Indeed, these movements, like some movements in philosophy (and not in the branch of aesthetics alone), found themselves impelled, by the necessities of rhetoric if by nothing more serious, to a contempt for mind, and since this contempt for mind in general had to include of necessity the mind that was being contemptuous, not to mention the mind that was writing the poems that exalted the senses at the mind’s expense, some contradiction was always involved, though it was not always acknowledged. For to proclaim, as the first Imagists did, that one must do away with “Cosmic Poetry” is to proclaim that one must do away with metaphysics, which is, however, a metaphysical decision; and as Owen Barfield says, “It is a failing common to a good many contemporary metaphysical theories that they can be applied to all things except themselves but that, when so applied, they extinguish themselves. ”Having tried to illustrate by certain poems of William Carlos Williams what theoretical considerations, what problems and what solutions belonged to this movement of the mind, I wish now to ask why. Why should it have happened to so many talented men and women, in poetry, in the novel, not to mention in painting, to put such an exclusive emphasis upon sensing, so exclusive that it led them in many instances to a contemptuous or fierce rejection of mind and thinking and explicitly stated meaning? One would have thought there could never have been a poet or novelist or painter so foolish as to be against accuracy of perception, accuracy of notation, or against the sympathetic concentration upon nature which alone could enable such accuracy— but why was it, why is it, this stress on seeing, almost always as if of necessity accompanied by an assault on the still and mental parts? I remind you of some of the forms this twinned attitude took during the early part of the period, where the stress is upon immediacy of experience either in neglect of reason or more often in denial or contradiction of reason. Eliot, who gave us the “objective correlative,” also praised Donne because his thought was as immediate to him as the odor of a rose. Hopkins, whose visionary contemplation of divinity both in and behind nature proceeded by an “instress” in the self that corresponded with an “inscape” in the object, made an appealing slogan for his procedures: What you look hard at seems to look hard at you."

"text": "\"Contemporary haibun is a combination of prose and haiku poetry, sometimes described as 'a narrative of epiphany'. Like English haiku, English haibun is evolving as it becomes more widely practiced in the English speaking world. Haibun is the Japanese name for 17th Centurey poet-monk Basho Matsuo's poetic-prose travel journals which were studded with haiku. The best known are The Narrow Road to the Deep North and The Hut of the Phantom Dwelling. Bruce Ross in an essay entitled \"\"North American Versions of Haiku\"\", in Modern Haiku, Winter-Spring 1997, states that haibun has \"\"syntax that is dominated by images\"\" and cites Makoto Ueda's four characteristics of haibun:1) a brevity and conciseness of haiku 2) a deliberately ambiguous use of certain particles and verb forms in places where the conjunction 'and' would be used in English 3) a dependence on imagery 4) the writer's detachment Ken Jones, in a book review posted in Blythe Spirit suggested the following: A haiku collection can be reviewed within a broad consensus of discourse. But in the more eclectic haibun tradition there are no such recognised markers. Reviewers and editors therefore need to set out some criteria so that their readers are aware of the standards to which they are working. Here I have used four sets of criteria. They are based on Basho’s view of haibun as haikai no bunsho - ‘writing in the style of haiku’. First, I would expect direct, concrete, economical imagery, infused with life and energy and eschewing abstraction and intellection."

Thus wholeness—wholesomeness? best say efforts of affection— attain integration too tough for infraction. (\"\" Efforts of Affection\"\")MARIANNE MOORE'S \"\"MARRIAGE\"\" begins with superb lack of passion, on the far abstract end of the continuum of meaning that reaches between it and dream. It is a purely verbal consideration: This institution, perhaps one should say enterprise out of respect for which one says one need not change one's mind about a thing one has believed in, requiring public promises of one's intention to fulfill a private obligation. Enter Adam and Eve, not as immediate protagonists, but as absent mentors who, having been the first to propose conjugal bliss, so the myth has it, might have some useful observation to make. Their answer is of course entirely a matter of our own imaginations. It is really we who are asked to reflect on the glint of a wedding ring and some cynical words drawn from Francis Bacon. Not love, but an \"\"enterprise,\"\" is the center of attention as the poet wonderswhat Adam and Eve think of it by this time, this fire-gilt steel alive with goldenness; how bright it shows— \"\"of circular traditions and impostures, committing many spoils,\"\" requiring all one's criminal ingenuity to avoid!Moore's quotation of Bacon, so aptly placed for rendering the symbol of love into an image of social greed, and the eternal circle into an image of unprogressive self-interest, applies as much to a style of writing and speaking as it does to the life style of prospective husbands and wives. Social mores, ingenious in the enshrinement of the original felix culpa, must be fought with like ingenuity."

Stephen Crane Formal portrait of Stephen Crane taken in Washington, D. C., about March 1896Born November 1, 1871 Newark, New Jersey, USDied June 5, 1900 (aged 28) Badenweiler, German Empire Occupation Writer Stephen Crane (November 1, 1871 – June 5, 1900) was an American poet, novelist, and short story writer. Prolific throughout his short life, he wrote notable works in the Realist tradition as well as early examples of American Naturalism and Impressionism. He is recognized by modern critics as one of the most innovative writers of his generation. The ninth surviving child of Methodist parents, Crane began writing at the age of four and had published several articles by the age of 16. Having little interest in university studies though he was active in a fraternity, he left Syracuse University in 1891 to work as a reporter and writer. Crane's first novel was the 1893 Bowery tale Maggie: A Girl of the Streets, generally considered by critics to be the first work of American literary Naturalism. He won international acclaim in 1895 for his Civil War novel The Red Badge of Courage, which he wrote without having any battle experience. In 1896, Crane endured a highly publicized scandal after appearing as a witness in the trial of a suspected prostitute, an acquaintance named Dora Clark. Late that year he accepted an offer to travel to Cuba as a war correspondent."

Wish you were here on the margin) had to be printed. If a watch, then a watch-maker; if a diabolical machine, then a diabolical mechanic—Frost uses exactly the logic that has always been used. And this little albino catastrophe is too whitely catastrophic to be accidental, too impossibly unlikely ever to be a coincidence: accident, chance, statistics, natural selection are helpless to account for such \"\"designed terror and heartbreak, such an awful symbolic perversion of the innocent being of the world. Frost's details are so diabolically good that it seems criminal to leave some unremarked; but notice how dimpled, fat, and white (all but one; all but one) come from our regular description of any baby; notice how the heal-all, because of its name, it the one flower in all the world picked to be the altar for this Devil's Mass; notice how holding up the moth brings something ritual and hieratic, a ghostly, ghastly formality, to this priest and its sacrificial victim; notice how terrible to the fingers, how full of the stilling rigor of death, that white piece of rigid satin cloth is. And assorted characters of death and blight is, like so many things in this poem, sharply ambiguous: a mixed bunch of actors or diverse representative signs. The tone of the phrase assorted characters of death and blight is beautifully developed in the ironic Breakfast-Club-calisthenics, Radio-Kitchen heartiness of mixed ready to begin the morning right (which assures us, so unreassuringly, that this isn't any sort of Strindberg Spook Sonata, but hard fact), and concludes in the ingredients of the witch's broth, giving the soup a sort of cuddly shimmer that the cauldron in Macbeth never had; the broth, even, is brought to life—we realize that witch's broth is broth, to be supped with a long spoon. For sweet-sour, smiling awfulness snow-drop spider looks unsurpassable, until we come to the almost obscenely horrible (even the mouth-gestures are utilized) a flower like froth; this always used to seem to me the case of the absolutely inescapable effect, until a student of mine said that you could tell how beautiful the flower was because the poet compared it to froth; when I said to her, \"\"But—but—but what does froth remind you of?\"\" looking desperately into her blue eyes, she replied: \"\"Fudge.

"text": "Close reading A close reading is not a description of a poem from beginning to end: it is a view on a poem that sees it whole, and has an opinion about it. Basics The process of close reading is twofold: first, read the text; second, interpret your reading. Interpretation is a kind of inductive reasoning: you should move from the observation of particular facts and details to a reading based on those details. A close reading does not mean a close description - the reading element indicates activity on the part of the reader. This activity should be thought of in terms of the analysis, synthesis, and interpretation of the poem’s formal features. ‘Formal’ features (the ‘form’ of a poem) includes the poem’s shape on the page, language used, rhythm, metre, sound, tone, voice. What to do As you read the text, annotate it: ‘annotating’ means underlining or highlighting key words and phrases - anything that strikes you as surprising or significant, or that raises questions - as well as making notes in the margins. Focus on particulars and specifics: who is speaking? where is the poem located? at what time of day?"

It is central to the field of comparative linguistics, which involves using evidence from known languages and observed rules of language feature evolution to identify and describe the hypothetical proto-languages ancestral to each language family, such as Proto-Indo-European and the Indo-European languages."

"text": "Celtic languages, also spelled Keltic, branch of the Indo-European language family, spoken throughout much of Western Europe in Roman and pre-Roman times and currently known chiefly in the British Isles and in the Brittany peninsula of northwestern France. On both geographic and chronological grounds, the languages fall into two divisions, usually known as Continental Celtic and Insular Celtic. Continental Celtic Continental Celtic is the generic name for the languages spoken by the people known to classical writers as Keltoi and Galatae; at various times during a period of roughly 1,000 years (approximately 500 bc – ad 500), they occupied an area that stretched from Gaul to Iberia in the south and Galatia in the east. The great bulk of evidence for Continental Celtic consists of the names of persons, tribes, and places recorded by Greek and Latin writers. Only in Gaul and in northern Italy are inscriptions found, and the interpretation of these is in most cases doubtful. Given the nature of the evidence, knowledge of these languages is confined largely to the sound system and a small part of the vocabulary, and no certain conclusions can be reached as to their historical development or the differences between them. Insular Celtic Insular Celtic refers to the Celtic languages of the British Isles, together with Breton (spoken in Brittany, France). As the name Breton implies, it is an importation from Britain and is not a Continental Celtic dialect. Although there is some scanty evidence from classical sources—mainly place-names—and a small body of inscriptions in the Latin and ogham alphabets from the end of the 4th to the 8th century ad, the main sources of information on the early stages of these languages are manuscripts written from the 7th century onward in Irish and somewhat later in the British languages. The Insular languages fall into two groups—Irish and British."

Words deemed profane were described as obsc (a)ena (obscene, lewd, unfit for public use), or improba (improper, in poor taste, undignified). Profanities occurred rarely in classical Latin, limited to satirical works and commentaries on word usage, but they could be found in Vulgar Latin (a phrase which means \"\"the language spoken by the common people\"\"). Since profanities are informal and more often spoken than committed to paper, it is worthwhile to note several written sources of Latin profanity: The satirical poets, especially Catullus and Martial, use the words in preserved literary works. Horace also used them in his earlier poems. The anonymous Priapeia is another important literary source.

The word for 'son' sūn us is like that in Sanskrit, sūnūs; eiti 'he goes' has undergone fewer changes than has Latin it. Lithuanian is accordingly one of the most important Indo-European languages for comparative study, (p. 26). 2Recently, the writer of the present article emphasized the same point by stating: Lithuanian... is the most archaic among all the Indo-European languages spoken today, and as a result it is very useful, indeed, indispensable in the study of Indo-European linguistics.' 3What, then, are the linguistic (and other) factors which make Lithuanian so important for Indo-European studies ? We will try to list here the most important features of Lithuanian, without necessarily exhausting their listing, and without trying to assign them their relative degree of importance.1. The most important fact is that Lithuanian is not only very archaic, but still very much alive, i. e., it is spoken by about three and a half million people. It has a rich tradition in folklore, in literature, and it is used very successfully in all walks of modern life, including the most advanced scientific research. The fact that, at the present time, Lithuania is occupied by the U. S. S. R. and that the Russian language is very cunningly foisted 4 upon the Lithuanians has not diminished the lively development of archaic (or conservative) Lithuanian into a completely modern language in every field of human endeavor. Thus, any linguist can hear, tape-record, use, check and re-check any type of language information that he may need in his research of Lithuanian."

The reason for this is the way Indo-European languages create gender in nouns. By analysing the grammatical gender of the nouns and names ending in a we can see a clear correlation: the gender of the common nouns reflects on the gender of names. For example the Spanish has approximately 93% feminine nouns with an a ending and 98% female given names with the same ending.

Sanskrit language's origin is in The Vedas. There is no gainsaying this fact. I do not know if the QP is interested in the Geographical Origins only. For one interested in the linguistic origins of a language it is besides the point. But for a serious student of the Sanskrit language one has to say The Vedas are the first source. Since The Vedas are traditionally considered to be the source of all knowledge and has no human origin in SD, this language is referred to as Devabh ASha or g Irv ANa-v Ani or gairv ANI for short. The word Samskritam for the language is of a later origin."

"text": "\"<< Home For a more detailed overview of EHL goals, methods, and the current status of the project, please see our latest report:\"\"Evolution of Human Languages\"\": current state of affairs (03.2014)There are currently about 6000 languages on our planet, some spoken by millions, some by only a few dozen people. The primary goal of the international program known as EHL (Evolution of Human Language) is to work out a detailed historical classification of these languages, organizing them into a genealogical tree similar to the accepted classification of biological species. Since all representatives of the species Homo sapiens presumably share a common origin, it would be natural to suppose - although extremely hard to prove - that all or most known human languages also go back to some common source. The only way to proceed here is \"\"bottoms up\"\": classifying attested languages and dialects into groups, groups into families, families into \"\"macro-\"\" or \"\"superfamilies\"\" and so on, as far as one can penetrate using comparative-historical and cladistic methodology. Most existing classifications, however, do not look behind some 300-400 language families that are relatively easy to discern. This restriction has natural reasons: languages must have been spoken and constantly evolving for at least 40,000 years (and quite probably more), while any two languages separated from a common source usually lose almost all superficially common features after some 6,000-7,000 years. Nevertheless, despite widespread skepticism and reluctance to tackle the problem, there are a number of scholars who believe that these obstacles are not insurmountable. Research has been going on over the past several decades that appears to indicate that larger genetic groupings are not only possible, but indeed quite plausible. It can be shown that most of the world's language families can be classified into roughly a dozen large groupings, or macrofamilies. Two sorts of evidence can be used for this purpose:1) The science of historical linguistics has developed a very powerful tool - the comparative method - that allows the reconstruction of unattested language stages, so-called proto-languages, based on systematic comparison of their present day descendants."

Inductor A selection of low-value inductors Type Passive Working principle Electromagnetic induction First production Michael Faraday (1831)Electronic symbol An inductor, also called a coil, choke or reactor, is a passive two-terminalelectrical component that stores energy in a magnetic field when electric current flows through it. [ 1] An inductor typically consists of an insulated wire wound into a coil around a core. When the current flowing through an inductor changes, the time-varying magnetic field induces a voltage in the conductor, described by Faraday's law of induction. According to Lenz's law, the direction of induced electromotive force ( e.m.f.) opposes the change in current that created it. As a result, inductors oppose any changes in current through them. An inductor is characterized by its inductance, which is the ratio of the voltage to the rate of change of current. In the International System of Units (SI), the unit of inductance is the henry (H) named for 19th century American scientist Joseph Henry. In the measurement of magnetic circuits, it is equivalent to weber / ampere."

This principle is important to understand because it is manifested in the behavior of inductance. Thankfully, there are more familiar physical systems which also manifest the process of integration, making it easier to comprehend. If we introduce a constant flow of water into a cylindrical tank with water, the water level inside that tank will rise at a constant rate over time: In calculus terms, we would say that the tank integrates water flow into water height. That is, one quantity (flow) dictates the rate-of-change over time of another quantity (height). Like the water tank, electrical inductance also exhibits the phenomenon of integration with respect to time. Which electrical quantity (voltage or current) dictates the rate-of-change over time of which other quantity (voltage or current) in an inductance? Or, to re-phrase the question, which quantity (voltage or current), when maintained at a constant value, results in which other quantity (current or voltage) steadily ramping either up or down over time? Reveal answer Question 2Suppose a mass is connected to a winch by means of a cable, and a person turns the winch drum to raise the mass off the ground: A physicist would likely look at this scenario as an example of energy exchange: the person turning the drum is expending energy, which in turn is being stored in the mass in potential form. Suppose now that the person stops turning the drum and instead engages a brake mechanism on the drum so that it reverses rotation and slowly allows the mass to return to ground level."

"text": "A choke coil is a part used in electrical circuits to allow DC current to flow through while blocking AC current from passing. These coils are used in a number of electrical devices. When used as part of a radio’s circuitry, it falls into one of two frequency classes: audio or radio. Those used in circuits with higher frequencies use different core materials than those used in lower frequency circuits. During the process of sending a signal through a circuit, the idea is to let the desired signal go through while filtering out other, unwanted signals. One type of unwanted signal is common-mode noise, which is filtered out by a common-mode choke coil. Power lines are an example of a source of common-mode noise. Without a coil, the power line would create a lot of electrical noise as it traveled to its destination, which would then be received on the other end and possibly cause interference with the signal. The choke coil works because it acts as an inductor. When the current passing through changes, as AC currents do, it typically creates a magnetic field in the coil that works against that current."

[ 1] It does that by storing and releasing energy from a magnetic field surrounding the conductor when current flows, according to Faraday's law of induction. When current rises, energy (as magnetic flux) is stored in the field, reducing the current and causing a drop in potential (i.e., a voltage) across the conductor; when current falls, energy is released from the field supplying current and causing a rise in potential across the conductor. Mutual inductance describes the change of current in a circuit when a second circuit also experiences a change of current; energy is coupled from one circuit to the other through magnetic fields. These effects are derived from two fundamental observations of physics: a steady current creates a steady magnetic field described by Oersted's law, [2] and a time-varying magnetic field induces an electromotive force (EMF) in nearby conductors, which is described by Faraday's law of induction. [ 3] According to Lenz's law, [4] a changing electric current through a circuit that contains inductance induces a proportional voltage, which opposes the change in current (self-inductance). The varying field in this circuit may also induce an EMF in neighbouring circuits (mutual inductance). The circuit component representing inductance is called an inductor."

"text": "What are Volts, Amps & Watts etc? This page details the most common terms used in electronics and often physics subjects. After reading this page you should be familiar with many of the aspects of electricity and electronics which should help you to understand man of the other pages on this site. Electricity Electricity is a term used to describe a physical process involving subatomic particles in materials. A battery does not hold electricity, but it is a store of energy that is used to make electrical processes work. Electricity involves the charged particles (electrons and protons) that make up ordinary matter. What we call ‘static electricity’ is a buildup or lack of electrons which are a negatively charged particle. If there is an excess of electrons on an object then it will have an overall negative charge, if electrons are removed then the object will have an overall positive charge due to the remaining protons. Notice that it is the electrons that are doing the moving around and that the protons stay where they are, fixed in the nucleus of atoms. When the electrons are moving from one place to another we call this an electric current."

This control of electrons is accomplished by devices that resist, carry, select, steer, switch, store, manipulate, and exploit the electron. Some of the basic electrical units and definitions are mentioned below: Passive: Capable of operating without an external power source. Typical passive components are resistors, capacitors, inductors and diodes (although the latter are a special case). Active: Requiring a source of power to operate. Includes transistors (all types), integrated circuits (all types), TRIACs, SCRs, LEDs, etc. DC: Direct Current. The electrons flow in one direction only. Current flow is from negative to positive, although it is often more convenient to think of it as from positive to negative. This is sometimes referred to as \"\"conventional\"\" current as opposed to electron flow."

You can't properly see it, you can't properly feel it and you can't taste it or smell it so what is it? It travels quite well through metals and generally poorly through non-metals. It doesn't behave quite like anything else. But this is not quite true: fluid flowing through a system of pipes can behave in many respects like electricity flowing in a circuit. The 'obvious' exception to this is that if you pierce a pipe full of water, the water comes out. Try piercing the insulation and touching the conductor: you will soon find the electricity coming out! The main difference is that water will fill any space whereas electricity will 'fill' only a conductor. Yes - the analogy is not perfect, but it is helpful and understanding will come not only from the similarities but also from the differences. Pressure."

"text": "Magnetic Fields and Inductance Chapter 15 - Inductors Whenever electrons flow through a conductor, a magnetic field will develop around that conductor. This effect is called electromagnetism. Magnetic fields effect the alignment of electrons in an atom, and can cause physical force to develop between atoms across space just as with electric fields developing force between electrically charged particles. Like electric fields, magnetic fields can occupy completely empty space, and affect matter at a distance. Fields have two measures: a field force and a field flux. The field force is the amount of “push” that a field exerts over a certain distance. The field flux is the total quantity, or effect, of the field through space. Field force and flux are roughly analogous to voltage (“push”) and current (flow) through a conductor, respectively, although field flux can exist in totally empty space (without the motion of particles such as electrons) whereas current can only take place where there are free electrons to move. Field flux can be opposed in space, just as the flow of electrons can be opposed by resistance. The amount of field flux that will develop in space is proportional to the amount of field force applied, divided by the amount of opposition to flux."

If we were to plot the current and voltage for a very simple AC circuit consisting of a source and a resistor, (Figure above ) it would look something like this: (Figure below )Voltage and current “in phase” for resistive circuit. Because the resistor allows an amount of current directly proportional to the voltage across it at all periods of time, the waveform for the current is exactly in phase with the waveform for the voltage. We can look at any point in time along the horizontal axis of the plot and compare those values of current and voltage with each other (any “snapshot” look at the values of a wave are referred to as instantaneous values, meaning the values at that instant in time). When the instantaneous value for voltage is zero, the instantaneous current through the resistor is also zero. Likewise, at the moment in time where the voltage across the resistor is at its positive peak, the current through the resistor is also at its positive peak, and so on. At any given point in time along the waves, Ohm's Law holds true for the instantaneous values of voltage and current. We can also calculate the power dissipated by this resistor, and plot those values on the same graph: (Figure below )Instantaneous AC power in a resistive circuit is always positive. Note that the power is never a negative value. When the current is positive (above the line), the voltage is also positive, resulting in a power (p=ie) of a positive value."

"text": "What you always wanted to know about PHASORS and IMPEDANCESbut were afraid to ask We have learned that the voltage across an inductor is proportional to the time derivative of the current through the inductor and the voltage across a capacitor is proportional to the integral of the current through the capacitor. As a result, in the presence of inductors and/or capacitors Kirchhoff's current and voltage laws are expressed in the form of differential equations, even in the simplest cases. In case of transient response or an arbitrary time dependence of voltage or current sources, circuit analysis involves solution of ordinary differential equations. There is, however, one very important special case when differential equations can be replaced by complex analysis. This is the case of alternating currents and voltages used for industrial and household applications all over the world. In this case the currents and voltages are sinusoidal functions of time. A sinusoidal function can always be represented in the form of V (t) = V p cos ( w t + q v )for voltages andi (t) = i p cos ( w t + q i ) for currents where t is time, V p and i p are the peak values of voltage and current, respectively, q v and q i are the initial phases of voltage and current, respectively, and w is the angular frequency of the signals generated by voltage and/or current sources. By definition, any complex number Z is represented as Z = Re {Z} + j Im {Z} (rectangular form),or Z = M (cos a + j sin a ) (polar form)where j = sqrt (-1), Re {Z} is the real part and Im {Z} is the imaginary part of the complex number Z, M is its magnitude, and a is the angle between the real axis and the vector leading from the origin to the point in the complex plane that defines the given complex number. According to Euler's theorem, the complex exponential function is defined asexp (j a) = cos a + j sin a It follows from here that the polar form of any complex number can be represented as Z = M exp (j a)and our functions can be rewritten as real parts of complex numbers: V (t) = Re {V p exp [j ( w t + q v )]}andi (t) = Re {i p exp [j ( w t + q i )]}Let us rewrite our functions once again: V (t) = Re {V p exp (j q v ) exp (j w t)} = Re { V exp (j w t )}andi (t) = Re {i p exp (j q i) exp (j w t)} = Re { i exp (j w t )}where V = V p exp (j q v)andi = i p exp (j q i)are the voltage and current phasors, respectively.

This tool is designed to calculate the inductance of a coil of wire given the number of turns, the loop diameter, wire diameter, and the permeability of the medium. Note that you can choose the unit of measurements for the loop diameter and wire diameter. The number of turns is always assumed as a whole number (it's hard to do a 3.4 turn, for example), but you can still input fractional turns. Equation Where:= inductance of the coil in henries (H)= number of turns= permeability of free space = 4π×10 −7= relative permeability= loop diameter= wire diameter Applications Camera Flash Lamp The inductor (or coil) plays an important role in the camera flash lamp circuitry. For the camera, it is the important component that resulted in the high spike voltage across the trigger coil which was then magnified by the autotransformer action of the secondary to generate the 4000 V necessary to ignite the flash lamp. The capacitor in parallel with the trigger coil charged up to 300 V using the low-resistance path provided by the SCR. However, once the capacitor was fully charged, the short-circuit path to ground provided by the SCR was removed, and the capacitor immediately started to discharge through the trigger coil. Since the only resistance in the time constant for the inductive network is the relatively low resistance of the coil itself, the current through the coil grew at a very rapid rate."

Infrared thermometers usually use a lens to focus infrared light from one object onto a detector called a thermopile. The thermopile absorbs the infrared radiation and turns it into heat. The more infrared energy, the hotter the thermopile gets. This heat is turned into electricity. The electricity is sent to a detector, which uses it to determine the temperature of whatever the thermometer is pointed at. The more electricity, the hotter the object is. FYI: When to use your infrared thermometer IR thermometers are used to measure the temperatures of very hot objects, objects in hard-to-reach places, hazardous materials and in food manufacturing to monitor the temperature of frozen and hot foods. Use the laser sight to focus on the object being measured. For an accurate temperature reading, the object being measured should fill the field of view of the IR thermometer."

"text": "Three Common Misconceptions About Infrared Thermometers March 9, 2012 By Jesse Infrared Thermometers Besides the fact that they’re shaped like a gun and have a built-in laser, infrared thermometers are just plain cool. They’re very fast (instantaneous), provide a good indication of temperature and allow you to collect data at a distance. The problem is, you’ve got to look past the novelty – and learn how to use them properly – before they’ll give you excellent temperature returns. Here are three of the most common misconceptions about infrared thermometers:#1 The laser reads the temperature This is just plain wrong. The laser pointer in an infrared thermometer is a guide that indicates where you’re pointing the instrument. When measuring the heat coming from an A/C duct (for example), the laser helps to steady your aim and ensure that you’re close to the area you’re trying to temp. Depending on the make and model, an infrared thermometer is actually reading the temperature above, below or around where you see the laser. Some infrared thermometers, like the IR Pro Series and the IR-IND are equipped with two lasers. They provide an indication of the infrared radiation being measured between the laser points. And depending on your infrared’s optics, the diameter of the area being measured will change as you get farther away from your target."

For example, the way we detect the heat in the air is different from how we detect heat from a fire or heat from objects in deep space. We have all felt various levels of heat. Our skin is a good detector of heat and we interpret the average molecular motion within an object as a feeling that the object is hot or cold. However our skin does not always give us consistent measurements of heat energy. ACTIVITYGet three bowls of water - one very cold, one lukewarm - at room temperature, and one very warm - from the faucet (not too hot to avoid burns).

A common thermometer is the mercury thermometer used outside residential areas. The volume of the mercury changes as the outside temperature changes. The volume of the liquid expands as it heats up, representing an increase in temperature, and the liquid contracts when it cools down, representing a decrease in temperature.

We have all used a thermometer—to check for a fever, record data during a chemistry lab, or to help us decide how to dress before leaving for school in the morning. But have you ever thought about how a thermometer works? And when you measure temperature, just what exactly are you measuring? The prefix thermo- refers to heat. Thermodynamics is the study of heat. A thermos either keeps heat in or out. You wear thermal underwear to prevent body heat from escaping. Despite its name, however, a thermometer does not actually record heat, but rather temperature."

Before you panic and race down to your doctor you will want to confirm your suspicions. You don’t waste time and money on a doctors trip that didn’t need to happen. That’s where a baby thermometer comes in. A baby thermometer will give you an accurate reading of your baby’s body temperature. From here you will be able to determine whether you are being an overly cautious mom (nothing wrong with that) or your baby actually has a full blown fever. The problem is that there are so many different baby thermometers available that it can be difficult to determine which one is right for your baby. That’s where this guide comes in."

"text": "\"A thermal imager is a non-contact temperature measurement device. Thermal Imagers detect the infrared energy emitted, transmitted or reflected by all materials -- at temperatures above absolute zero, (0°Kelvin)-- and converts the energy factor into a temperature reading or thermogram. A thermogram is the thermal image displayed by the camera of the object which is emitting, transmitting or reflecting the infrared energy. Why Thermal Imaging? While spot infrared thermometers present only a single temperature at a single spot, these Thermal Imaging Cameras give you the whole picture, some up to 19,600 spots! Thermal imaging is the most effective method for finding problems or potential problems in a variety of applications across many fields. Why should I use a thermal imager to measure temperature in my application? Thermal imagers allow users to measure temperature in applications where conventional sensors cannot be employed. Specifically, in cases dealing with moving objects ( i.e., rollers, moving machinery, or a conveyor belt), or where non-contact measurements are required because of contamination or hazardous reasons (such as high voltage), where distances are too great, or where the temperatures to be measured are too high for thermocouples or other contact sensors. The thermal imagers provide an image which shows the temperature difference of the object being measured."

"text": "EBME & Clinical Engineering Articles Temperature Measurement Details Category: Clinical Engineering Temperature measurement - Thermometers A thermometer is a device that measures temperature or temperature gradient The word thermometer is derived from two smaller word fragments: thermo from the Greek for heat and meter from Greek, meaning to measure. A thermometer has two important elements, the temperature sensor (e.g. the bulb on a mercury thermometer) in which some physical change occurs with temperature, plus some means of converting this physical change into a value (e.g. the scale on a mercury thermometer). Thermometers can be divided into two groups according to the level of knowledge about the physical basis of the underlying thermodynamic laws and quantities. Primary thermometers; the measured property of matter is known so well that temperature can be calculated without any unknown quantities. Examples of these are thermometers based on the equation of state of a gas, on the velocity of sound in a gas, on the thermal noise, voltage or current of an electrical resistor, and on the angular anisotropy of gamma ray emission of certain radioactive nuclei in a magnetic field. Secondary thermometers are most widely used because of their convenience. Also, they are often much more sensitive than primary ones. For secondary thermometers knowledge of the measured property is not sufficient to allow direct calculation of temperature. They have to be calibrated against a primary thermometer at least at one temperature or at a number of fixed temperatures. Such fixed points, for example, triple points and superconducting transitions, occur reproducibly at the same temperature."

While a fever is usually no cause for alarm (it is, after all, our body’s way of fighting infection), there’s always that nagging fear that the fever might be a running symptom of a more serious medical condition. To counterbalance these fears, parents use a medical or health thermometer to detect or monitor the fever. The problem? Most infants and children won’t stay put when you try to read their body temperature using a thermometer. Some eventually settle down – but, then again, wouldn’t it better if you can save yourself the time and trouble of having to convince them to stay still?

"text": "\"What is the Most Accurate Way to Take a Temperature? September 13, 2013 Jennifer Tousseau author, Karen Durrant RN editor When dealing with recurring fevers in children or adults, it’s not uncommon to become concerned with what is the best way to take a temperature. Different methods of taking a temperature will produce different average readings. However, several methods that measure the internal temperature, including oral, axillary, rectal, temporal and ear have been found in various studies to all be accurate ways to take a temperature. It is important to properly take a temperature with whatever method you choose, as if it is done incorrectly, the reading may be inaccurate and will generally read lower than the true temperature. What is a Fever? A fever is considered to be a rectal, ear or temporal artery temperature of 100.4ºF (38ºC) or higher. If you are using an oral or oral pacifier thermometer, many doctors would say that a fever is also over 100.4ºF (38ºC), but some may consider a fever in a young patient, to be an oral temperature of 100ºF or 37.8ºC. Talk to your doctor about what temperature range they would consider a fever and about the recommended treatment. With the axillary (armpit) temperature, a fever is present if the reading is 99.4ºF or higher, or over 37.2ºC, but others consider 99.0ºF to be a fever, depending on your doctor’s recommendation. Keep in mind, for these systemic autoinflammatory diseases, it’s not just a fever."

Daniel Fahrenheit 's application of mercury and a standardized temperature scale for liquid-in-glass thermometers ushered in a new era of accuracy and precision in thermometry. [ 1] From the early 1710s until the introduction of electronic devices in the 1960s, mercury-in-glass thermometers were the world's most reliable and accurate thermometers, accounting for their widespread use. A thermometer is a device that measures temperature or a temperature gradient. A thermometer has two important elements: (1) a temperature sensor (e.g. the bulb of a mercury-in-glass thermometer or the digital sensor in an infrared thermometer) in which some change occurs with a change in temperature, and (2) some means of converting this change into a numerical value (e.g. the visible scale that is marked on a mercury-in-glass thermometer or the digital readout on an infrared model). Thermometers are widely used in industry to monitor processes, in meteorology, in medicine, and in scientific research. Some of the principles of the thermometer were known to Greek philosophers of two thousand years ago. The modern thermometer gradually evolved from the thermoscope with the addition of a scale in the early 17th century and standardisation through the 17th and 18th centuries.

"text": "List of Mammals That Are Insectivores By Jasey Kelly Many types of animals are insectivores, meaning they live primarily off insects and other invertebrates. Many species of birds, fish, reptiles and amphibians fall into this group, as well as a semi-diverse group of mammals. Most insectivorous mammals are small, but some grow to be quite large. The geographic range of insectivores spans the globe, with many species native to North America. Order Insectivora Insectivora is a diverse group of small mammals composed of more than 400 species of moles, shrews, tenrecs, hedgehogs and the like. All of these rather small creatures have pointed snouts, sharp teeth and relatively small eyes. As the name of the group implies, members of Insectivora feed almost exclusively on insects, although many will occasionally take vegetative food or feed on small mammals, bird eggs or other items. Shrews and Moles Shrews are small, flat-bodied, soft-furred mammals that have particularly high metabolic rates that cause them to be constantly active throughout the day and night. Some species emit a venom that allows them sometimes to take down small mammals. The short-tailed shrew is one such example, but the venom is only painful to humans and not particularly medically significant."

"text": "\"Bird Migration Factsby Kerry Scanlan, Vicki Piaskowski, Michelle Jacobi and Steve Mahler WHAT IS MIGRATION? Migration is the seasonal movement of birds, generally between breeding and non-breeding areas. WHY DO BIRDS MIGRATE? Food: The change of seasons causes a change in food supply, causing birds to move to an area with a more plentiful food supply. Reproduction: Birds also migrate to a specific area to breed and raise their young. Many birds that breed in North America migrate to areas south of the Tropic of Cancer (southern Mexico, Central and South America and the Lesser and Greater Antilles in the Caribbean Sea) in the fall (August-October) because of a decrease in their food supply. Many of these birds are insectivores; they eat mainly insects. ( Most insects do not survive the North American winters except in larval or egg forms.) These birds remain on their non-breeding (wintering) grounds until April. Then in spring they migrate back to their breeding grounds in North America to take advantage of the plentiful insect food supply to breed and raise young."

These amazing animals have worked their mysterious magic on adults and children alike and are fast becoming as common as fish or birds in millions of households.

As a result of this newfound popularity and ease of availability many problems are beginning to arise with captive reptiles. One of the most common problems seen with captive reptiles is nutritionally related disorders. This is a direct result of the fact that little information is available on the proper feeding methods of many species. This is a problem that is closely related to the fact that the demand for captive reptiles as pets has grown faster than science's knowledge of their needs. While many species are still considered to be exotic, many species such as the ball python or the (Giant) green iguana have earned a place as common pets in most pet stores.

Some small fish will eat tiny organisms that populate the watery environment around them; there are many types of crustaceons and other animals that may be almost too small to see with the naked eye, but make a perfect snack for a small fish. In freshwater areas, small fish will also prey on insects that land on the water's surface or the larvae of insects that spend their larval stage underwater (like mosquitos). In fact, there is a species of tiny fish related to guppies that people actually purchase to live in their backyard ponds or other standing pools of water. The fish prey on the water-bound mosquito larvae, thus drastically reducing or eliminating a mosquito population that once relied on the pool of water to reproduce.

Spiders certainly must look ferocious to the insects and other creatures they eat. But to many animals, spiders look delicious. Many birds eat spiders. So do many types of wasps, which first paralyze the spiders by stinging them, and then carry them away to eat them or to lay eggs on them so that their young can eat them. Most mammals and reptiles that eat insects—called insectivores—will also eat spiders. Insectivores include bats and shrews, among hundreds of insect- and spider-eating species. Some types of monkeys also occasionally appreciate a spider snack."

Answer by Leahlove916 Confidence votes 236Chameleons are insectivorous and will do quite well with the insects that you should be able to purchase at your local pet store. Most people feed their chameleons a regular diet of crickets, which can usually be bought from wherever you purchased your chameleon in varied sizes. However, if you live in an area where you cannot get insects regularly, they can be ordered on line or by telephone and delivered to you in bulk. It is a good practice to try and feed your chameleon a varied diet of different types of insects. Some of the more common insects you should try and feed your chameleon are crickets, wax worms, meal worms, super worms, fruit flies (for younger chameleons), flies, moths, and grasshoppers. Be careful how many larger winged insects (such as moths) you feed your reptile as the wings can be difficult to digest, and this could lead to bigger problems. Also, be cautious with wild caught insects. Make sure they haven't been subjected to any types of parasites since these would then be passed on to your chameleon and cause significant harm to it."

They are often called insectivorous plants, because they usually trap insects. Since they get some of their food from animals, carnivorous plants can grow in places where the soil is thin, or poor in nutrients. This is true for soils with little nitrogen, such as acidicbogs and rock outcrops. Charles Darwin wrote the first well-known book on carnivorous plants in 1875. [ 1]This ability of plants to catch animals is true carnivory. There are more than twelve genera in five families.

Cardinals eat a variety of wild and \"\"feeder\"\" seeds, including sunflower, safflower and most other seeds in basic wild bird seed mixes. In warm seasons they also eat insects and worms and feed their babies mainly an insectivore diet. They will eat suet in the winter if it is located near a perch such as a deck rail or tree branch or on the ground where they can comfortably feed from it. They don't seem to hang like woodpeckers do on the cage suet feeders. They also are opportunistic and I have personally seen them eating dry cat food that I have put out for some feral cats.

"text": "Insectivorous plants trap insects and arachnids and digest them for nutrients; an unusual behavior for a plant. Species of insectivorous plants include the Venus flytrap, some varieties of pitcher plants, butterworts, and sundews. These plants often grow in areas where there is little nitrogen in the soil, compensating through the consumption of insects. Some creatures consumed by carnivorous plants include spiders, flies, caterpillars, crickets, and slugs. The Venus flytrap is the best-known among insectivorous plants, recognized far and wide for its unique appearance and teeth-like spikes. A Venus flytrap, which got its name from the seductive Greek goddess of love, lures insects into its jaws with a sweet nectar. This nectar is a variant of the same nectar that many other plants use to lure bees for assisting in pollination. When the hapless insect makes its way into the jaws of the flytrap, it stimulates delicate trigger hairs, causing the trap to close in less than 100 milliseconds. The Venus flytrap is a rare member of the class of plants with the ability to move rapidly. Its natural habitat are the bogs around the Carolinas, extremely wet, insect-infested areas."

Classification, taxonomy, scientific names... these terms are enough to send chills down the backs of those who have taken an Introductory Zoology course, and for the rest, a miasma of terms that might as well be a foreign language. Well, in fact, it is. As humans, we seem to enjoy naming things – our cars, pets, and computers – but why do scientists need such complicated terms? Common names may or may not be of any help. After all, in Nebraska, a 'gopher' is a rodent, while in Florida, a 'gopher' is a turtle - go figure. Other problems exist, such as finding enough names to cover 45,000 Chordate species, 120,000 Mollusk species, and the five million or so Insect species alive today on our planet. To solve these problems, Carolus Linnaeus (1707-1778) prepared a classification scheme that we still use today. At the heart of it are latinized binomials, i.e., two-part names that use root-words of a language that most of us don't think very much about these days - Latin (sometimes Greek). Often, latinized names are intentionally descriptive ( Marmota flaviventris: one who lives among the rocks + yellow belly = Yellow Bellied Marmot), sometimes they honor a special scientist ( Koopmania concolor , Koopman's uniformly-colored bat, named after the late Karl Koopman, one of the world's most respected bat taxonomists), and sometimes they use common, immediately recognizable, commonly-heard terms ( Bison bison: the American Bison)."

In order to understand how Social Security benefits are calculated, you need to be familiar with two terms:“full retirement age” (FRA), and“primary insurance amount” (PIA). Your full retirement age depends on the year in which you were born (see table below). Your primary insurance amount is the amount of retirement benefits you would receive per month if you started taking them at your full retirement age.

"text": "\"Want CE Credit for reading articles like this? Learn More!How Continuing To Work, Even In Retirement, Can Increase Social Security Benefits January 6, 2016 07:02 am 52 Comments CATEGORY: Retirement Planning169Shares A A A169Shares Executive Summary The conventional view of delaying Social Security is that doing so is an opportunity to earn delayed retirement credits, an 8%/year increase in benefits that can be highly appealing in today’s low-yield environment. However, the reality is that delaying Social Security benefits doesn’t just increase benefits by earning delayed retirement credits. Additional years of working while collecting Social Security benefits can also increase the worker’s Average Indexed Monthly Earnings used to calculate those Social Security benefits in the first place, just as ending work early can reduce AIME below what is projected as benefits on the Social Security statement. And depending on how much additional income will be earned – and how low his/her historical earnings really are – the reality is that continuing to work while getting Social Security benefits can produce a material increase in future payments for some workers, simply because of how benefits are recalculated. In other words, for those past full retirement age (and no longer subject to the Earnings Test), it’s possible to be receiving Social Security benefits while working and have those years added to the Social Security work history to generate higher future benefits as well!In the end, working while on Social Security won’t always produce a significant increase in Social Security benefits. For those whose prior working years produced more income – at least on an inflation-adjusted basis – it’s possible that continuing to work will generate no additional benefits at all. Nonetheless, for those who haven’t fully capped out Social Security benefits based on 35 years of maximal earnings already, it is possible to be working and getting Social Security benefits at the same time, and have that work increase the benefits (at least after reaching full retirement age). And the potential for a benefits increase can be material in some cases, and thus should definitely be considered in the timing and impact of when to stop working!How Social Security Benefits Are Calculated Similar to a pension, Social Security provides a stream of retirement income that continues as long as the recipient is alive (and adjusts for inflation along the way). And also like a pension, Social Security calculates its benefits by applying an “income replacement” formula, based on the earnings of the individual during his/her working years."

"text": "\"Flexible premium adjustable life insurance is a type of whole life insurance policy that offers individuals the greatest amount of flexibility in terms of their investment choice and monthly premiums. It provides both a death benefit and an investment vehicle. Many individuals opt for such a policy because it provides a form of forced savings for retirement, while also protecting dependents in the event of premature death. The first key to understanding this type of insurance is understanding whole life insurance policies. Whole life policies are distinct from term life because the death benefit on a whole life policy is paid no matter when the insured dies. With term policies, the death benefit is paid only during a set period; for example, for his beneficiaries to collect the death benefit on a 30-year term, the insured would have to die within the 30-year period that the policy was active. With a whole life policy, premium payments continue for life and the death benefit is paid no matter when the insured dies. Premiums for this type of policy are generally more expensive than those for a term policy. They are also more expensive because the insured pays another fee, over and above the cost of insurance, which is invested in various types of investment vehicles. Ad The payments are invested in one of two ways: the investor may have control over the investments and receive a variable rate of return, or he may have no control over the investment and receive a fixed rate of return."

This sequence of transactions is referred to as an operating cycle and it goes like this: At the beginning of the period, the entity has a certain amount of cash This cash is used to purchase supplies and pay for expenses Revenue is earned that either results in a cash transaction or an account receivable Finally, cash is collected on accounts receivable Revenue Recognition and the Matching Principle Due to the continuous nature of these events, figuring out the exact balance in any account affected by the operating cycle for a specific period is challenging. It would be nice if all the accounts receivable generated in a month were also collected within that month, but that is not realistic. Neither is buying just enough supplies to generate revenue for a specific month. This is the basis of accrual accounting – not every transaction can be completely accounted for within the period the transaction occurs. There will always be some overlap in the accounts related to the operating cycle. These overlaps occur in two main categories of transactions:1. Recording revenue: transactions involving revenue generation and identifying at what point the revenue is “earned”2. Recording expenses: transactions involving payments and expenses incurred to generate those revenues. The GAAP principles that explain why these types of transactions are not straightforward nor are they easily accounted for include the Revenue Recognition principle and the Matching principle Recording Revenue Revenue recognition establishes the point at which revenue is actually earned – it is not necessarily earned when cash changes hands."

Our insurance agent didn't call us, we received a letter in the mail informing us that we were canceled. I don't understand why we were canceled.

Cost is based on the size and age of the unit, location and purchase price. Typical costs: Insuring a single-wide mobile home typically costs about $250-$700 per year, depending on age, purchase price, choice of deductible, level of liability coverage, size and location. For example, a manufactured home purchased for about $150,000 in Southern California will insure for about $700 per year through Manufactured Insurance Housing Services [ 1] , while a home purchased for less than $30,000 will insure at about $250 per year in the same area. Single-wide units typically measure from 14'-18' wide and are 60'-90' long. Double-wide mobile homes are the most common sized units and often the least expensive to insure at about $300-$800 per year, depending on the age, purchase price, size, choice of deductible, level of liability coverage, and location. For example a $60,000 mobile home would cost about $300-$400 per year with Allstate [ 2] while a unit purchased for $100,000 would cost about $500-$600 annually.

You may get multiple checks from your insurer as you make temporary repairs, permanent repairs and replace damaged belongings. Here's what you need to know about claims payments. The initial payment isn't final In most instances, an adjuster will inspect the damage to your home and offer you a certain sum of money for repairs, based on the terms and limits of your homeowners policy. The first check you get from your insurance company is often an advance against the total settlement amount, not the final payment. If you're offered an on-the-spot settlement, you can accept the check right away. Later, if you find other damage, you can reopen the claim and file for an additional amount. Most policies require claims to be filed within one year from the date of disaster; check with your state insurance department for the laws that apply to your area. You may receive multiple checks When both the structure of your home and your personal belongings are damaged, you generally receive two separate checks from your insurance company, one for each category of damage.

Do your best to protect your property by covering damage in roof, walls, doors, and windows with plastic sheeting or plywood. Homeowners insurance policies may not cover ensuing damage to your property if you have not taken reasonable steps to secure the property from subsequent damage. Be careful not to risk your own safety when making the repairs. Your insurance company will reimburse you for all reasonable costs to protect your property, as long as you save receipts for any materials you buy. Beware of building contractors that encourage you to spend a lot of money on temporary repairs. Remember that payments for temporary repairs are part of the total loss settlement. Also, don't make extensive permanent repairs until after the claims adjuster has been to your home and assessed the damage. Call Your Insurance Agent or Company Representative After a property loss you must report the damage to your insurance company agent or representative to start the claim process.

Once a tropical storm or hurricane watch or warning has been issued, insurance companies will not allow homeowners to obtain new or additional insurance coverage. Instead of nervously checking your insurance documents in the midst of hunkering down for a storm, you should make sure your home insurance needs – which may include homeowners, windstorm and flood coverage – are met before hurricane season (generally June through November) arrives. This should include reviewing your policies to understand what is covered, and filling in any gaps you find. It’s also wise to become familiar with your various insurance deductibles and other out-of-pocket expenses that may be required if a hurricane damages your home. Starting this process before hurricane seasons gives you time to start an emergency fund to cover these costs if necessary. To truly know how to arrange your coverage, you need to know how various insurance policies work in the event of storm damage. Here are answers to five common questions on hurricanes and home insurance.1. Does homeowners insurance cover damage from a hurricane?

Yet this investment can disappear in matter of minutes or seconds if there's a fire or natural disaster. Insurance is meant to come to the rescue in these times of calamity. A home insurance policy covers much more than damage to your house. There are additional coverage types within a policy that can save you from financial disaster, with limits often set as a percentage of the dwelling's coverage amount.

"text": "\"Poria: The Uninvited Guest Uncommon Fungus Finds Homes the Perfect Hosts Turns Wood to Mush A fungus is sprouting up around Southern California, snaking around stucco and brick to get to its daily meal--the wood in and around your home. When the feast is over, once-solid walls and floors are left mushy enough to put a pinky finger through, and once-secure property owners are left scrambling to come up with the thousands of dollars needed to repair the damage. In the last two decades, Meruliaporia incrassata--an orange-colored, mushroom-shaped fungus--has shown up with more frequency in houses from San Diego to Northern California. And because most homeowners, pest control inspectors and contractors are unfamiliar with the unusual growth commonly called poria, the fungus spreads untreated and unchecked through houses big and small, an equal-opportunity menace. \"\" It's a rare fungus, but it's as common here as anywhere in the world,\"\" said UC Riverside plant pathology professor John Menge. \"\" It's also the most devastating wood-decay fungus of houses that we know of.\"\" \"\" The bad news about poria is that it's hidden and it spreads fast, but once you find it, it can be controlled,\"\" said Wayne Wilcox, a UC Berkeley forestry professor. It sounds like science fiction and looks like it too, but poria, like all decay fungi, is an organism that needs moisture to break down and utilize wood as a food source, according to forest product experts at UC Berkeley. But unlike other decay fungi, which tend to destroy only a six-inch area around a plumbing leak or wet window sill, poria has the capacity to begin in wet soil--usually under a newly installed patio, new landscaping or a room addition--then travel to dry wood by pumping water through a root-like system. Far from its original water source, the fungus continues to feed on the new supply of wood."

"text": "Qualifiers What this handout is about This handout will explain what qualifiers are and how you can use them wisely. Introduction Qualifiers and intensifiers are words or phrases that are added to another word to modify its meaning, either by limiting it (He was somewhat busy) or by enhancing it (The dog was very cute). Qualifiers can play an important role in your writing, giving your reader clues about how confident you feel about the information you’re presenting. In fact, “hedging” (as it is sometimes called) is an important feature of academic writing, because academic writers need to clearly indicate whether they think claims are certain, likely, unlikely, or just false. But excessive use of qualifiers can make you sound unsure of your facts; it can also make your writing too informal. Qualifiers can be your friends Qualifiers are often necessary, such as when your evidence or your claim is open to doubt. In such cases, using a qualifier allows you to present your findings with what we can call “confident uncertainty,” which reflects a need to be cautious and critical about the data you’re presenting. Sometimes you may be required to present your ideas before you have had a chance to fully interpret your research findings. At other times, you may want to remind readers of the limitations of your particular research. Here are some words and phrases that can help you indicate uncertainty: Appears Seems Suggests Indicates It’s also very important to distinguish between absolute or universal claims (in which you are asserting that something is true always and everywhere) and more particular claims (in which you are asserting something but recognizing that your claim has limits)."

In some cases, not sweating is due to a medical condition. In many cases, not sweating enough during a workout just means that you have to exercise longer and more intensely. Why Your Body Sweats Sweating is your body's way of regulating its temperature. Your body excretes fluids through your sweat glands when your body temperature increases due to hot weather, exercise and nervousness. Sweating is, therefore, a healthy and necessary bodily mechanism. What It Means When You Do Not Sweat If you're not sweating during your workouts, it may be due to a variety of factors. At the most extreme, those who do not sweat, even in intense temperatures, may be suffering from a condition called anhidrosis. This condition is problematic because it can lead to overheating, dizziness, a rash and even fainting."

Here’s everything you need to know about aging beef. Let’s start with the big one: why do we age beef at all? Aging is employed to improve two major meat characteristics – taste and/or tenderness. As unpleasant as it sounds, the process of aging meat is essentially carefully controlled decomposition. Did you know that even the meat you buy at the grocery store has undergone at least 7-10 days of aging? It’s an industry-wide consensus that beef aged for at least this long is significantly better than freshly-slaughtered product, which ironically can taste “less-beefy” and highly metallic."

It may be described as treating actions as abstract objects, putting value to them.

"text": "Print Since citizens cannot cast informed votes or make knowledgeable decisions on matters of public policy if the information on which they depend is distorted, it is vital to American democracy that television news and other media be fair and unbiased. In a recent Gallup Poll the majority of Americans believe that the mass media slant reports in favor of the liberal position on current issues. ( see previous polls 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012 , 2011) [The bias] is not the result of a vast left-wing conspiracy – [there is] an unconscious “groupthink” mentality that taints news coverage and allows only one side of a debate to receive a fair hearing. When that happens, the truth suffers. A reporter’s job is to present a balanced story. As you read, listen to and watch the news, you may notice stories that you think are biased. To see if they really are biased, you need to determine if the story falls into at least one of the several forms in which bias occurs. TYPES OF MEDIA BIAS: Bias by omission – leaving one side out of an article, or a series of articles over a period of time; ignoring facts that tend to disprove liberal or conservative claims, or that support liberal or conservative beliefs; bias by omission can occur either within a story, or over the long term as a particular news outlet reports one set of events, but not another. To find instances of bias by omission, be aware of the conservative and liberal perspectives on current issues. See if both the conservative and liberal perspectives are included in stories on a particular event or policy."

This is both intuitive and stated in historical documents such as the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution (the Equal Protection Clause ). However, there are a variety of historical and technical reasons why this principle is not followed absolutely or, in some cases, as a first priority. Common problems [ edit]Fundamentally, the representation of a population in the thousands or millions by a reasonable size, thus accountable governing body involves arithmetic that will not be exact. Although it could make representation more exact for a representative's votes (on proposed laws and measures etc.) to be weighted according to the number of his constituents, [1] it avoids complexity in governance, giving equality between representatives, if each elected representative has exactly 1 vote. Over time, populations migrate and change in number, and preferences change. [ clarification needed] Governing bodies, however, usually exist for a defined term of office. While Parliamentary systems provide for dissolution of the body in reaction to political events, no system tries to make real-time adjustments (during one term of office) to reflect demographic changes."

"text": "The debate on citizenship in the Middle East was preceded by and now parallels the debate on civil society. In the West, discussion on these subjects often assumes Middle Eastern countries are incapable of sustaining democratic relations between state and society. [ 1] The citizenship debate questions the capacities of Middle Eastern governments to allow or enable their members to participate actively in the political process. Despite the burgeoning of these debates, most theorists have neglected or glossed over the issue of gender. [ 2]The concept of citizenship has been gendered from its origins in the Middle East, as elsewhere. Despite the fact that constitutions have been written in the (gender-neutral) language of the universal citizen, state institutions and political processes have presumed the citizen to be male and females to be dependent second-class members of the political community. For example, nowhere in the Middle East, were women given the vote as early as men, and in some countries women still remain disenfranchised. Likewise, women have struggled for the right to own businesses or travel without permission of fathers and husbands, rights still denied women in certain countries. The socio-cultural and political converge in areas of law where women have inherited less than men, have been considered lesser legal witnesses than men, and often have not had legal rights to initiate divorce or maintain custody of their children. Social welfare legislation gives citizens’ benefits often on the basis of participation in the labor market, making women who are not employed dependent on working men."

Factors Influencing Perception· The Perceiver – attitudes, motives, interests, experiences, expectations· The Target – novelty, motions, sounds, size, background, proximity, similarity· The Situation – time, work setting, social situation Person Perception: Making Judgments About Others Attribution Theory· When individuals observe behavior, they attempt to determine whether it is internally (under the personal control of the individual) or externally (outside causes “force” you to behave a certain way) caused.

The outcome of this competition is supposed to result in compromise and moderation. The modern group process has an elitist, upper-class bias because the upper class has greater resources to exploit that process. Interest Groups Represent Different Interests but Have Similar Organizations and Membership An interest group is a group of people organized to pursue a common interest or interests, through political participation, toward the ultimate goal of getting favorable publicpolicy decisions from government. Interest groups are sometimes referred to as “lobbies. ”Interest groups are different from political parties: Interest groups tend to concern themselves with the policies of government; parties tend to concern themselves with the personnel of government. There are many diverse interest groups that exist in the United States. Most interest groups share key organizational components, such as mechanisms for member recruitment, financial and decision-making processes, and agencies that actually carry out group goals. Interest-group politics in the United States tends to have a pronounced upper-class bias because of the characteristics of interest-group members."

Diversity — of gender, race, nationality, sexual orientation, socioeconomic backgrounds and outlook — is a moral imperative as well as a necessity for improving our coverage, which, in turn, will expand our audience,” notes a recently released New York Times planning document. Bolding added to isolate a pressing question that has been weighing on journalism for decades. Does “outlook” mean “ideology”? Is the New York Times explicitly seeking to ensure a balance of, say, liberal and conservative leanings among editors and reporters? That general topic is a concern transmitted to the “ Dear MSM ” Nerve Center after the debut column in this series, which addressed the ethics of seeking an interview with the president of the United States."

"text": "\"Politics September 21, 2012Print U. S. Distrust in Media Hits New Highby Lymari Morales Fewer Americans closely following political news now than in previous election years WASHINGTON, D. C. -- Americans' distrust in the media hit a new high this year, with 60% saying they have little or no trust in the mass media to report the news fully, accurately, and fairly. Distrust is up from the past few years, when Americans were already more negative about the media than they had been in years prior to 2004. The record distrust in the media, based on a survey conducted Sept. 6-9, 2012, also means that negativity toward the media is at an all-time high for a presidential election year. This reflects the continuation of a pattern in which negativity increases every election year compared with the year prior. The current gap between negative and positive views -- 20 percentage points -- is by far the highest Gallup has recorded since it began regularly asking the question in the 1990s. Trust in the media was much higher, and more positive than negative, in the years prior to 2004 -- as high as 72% when Gallup asked this question three times in the 1970s. This year's decline in media trust is driven by independents and Republicans. The 31% and 26%, respectively, who express a great deal or fair amount of trust are record lows and are down significantly from last year. Republicans' level of trust this year is similar to what they expressed in the fall of 2008, implying that they are especially critical of election coverage. Independents are sharply more negative compared with 2008, suggesting the group that is most closely divided between President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney is quite dissatisfied with its ability to get fair and accurate news coverage of this election."

"text": "\" (Redirected from Liberal Bias)navigation search See also: Liberal media bias Liberal bias is partisan selection or distortion of information to support liberal policies. This bias can be expressed by professors and public school teachers, College Board exams, reporters and other journalists in mainstream media, and any other information source. Typically purveyors of liberal bias falsely present themselves as being objective. Liberal bias includes techniques such as distorted selection of information, placement bias, photo bias and liberal style . The essence of liberal bias is to dismiss or even to censor opposing views. For liberals, to allow the airing or publishing of an opposing view creates the risk that people might discover errors in the liberal viewpoint. On the other hand, conservatives typically uphold freedom of ideological expression, with many expressing that although they may oppose a liberal view with every fiber of their being, they will defend to the death their right to say it, because they believe that in the marketplace of ideas the true will always win over the false. ( At Conservapedia we are not afraid to mention and even to summarize anti-conservative arguments. ) It is clear that the mainstream media is extremely biased towards the left-wing, and this was the case since at least the 1960s, with a strong leftist monopoly on the news which promotes false conclusions. [ 1] In addition, the roots for the left-wing bias may have started as early as Walter Lippmann 's book Public Opinion where he essentially advocated for fake news and that universities play a large role in the journalism industry."

Several factors have combined to make these questions salient to contemporary philosophy of science. These factors include the emergence of social movements, like environmentalism and feminism, critical of mainstream science; concerns about the social effects of science-based technologies; epistemological questions made salient by big science; new trends in the history of science, especially the move away from internalist historiography; anti-normative approaches in the sociology of science; turns in philosophy to naturalism and pragmatism. This entry reviews the historical background to current research in this area and features of contemporary science that invite philosophical attention. The philosophical work can roughly be classified into two camps. One acknowledges that scientific inquiry is in fact carried out in social settings and asks whether and how standard epistemology must be supplemented to address this feature. The other treats sociality as a fundamental aspect of knowledge and asks how standard epistemology must be modified from this broadly social perspective. Concerns in the supplementing approach include such matters as trust and answerability raised by multiple authorship, the division of cognitive labor, the reliability of peer review, the challenges of privately funded science, as well as concerns arising from the role of scientific research in society. The reformist approach highlights the challenge to normative philosophy from social, cultural, and feminist studies of science while seeking to develop philosophical models of the social character of scientific knowledge, and treats the questions of the division of cognitive labor, expertise and authority, the interactions of science and society, etc., from the perspective of philosophical models of the irreducibly social character of scientific knowledge.1."

[ 1]Colorism, a term coined by Alice Walker in 1982, [2] is not a synonym for racism. Numerous factors can contribute to \"\"race\"\" (including ancestry); therefore, racial categorization does not solely rely on skin color. Skin color is only one mechanism used to assign individuals to a racial category, but race is the set of beliefs and assumptions assigned to that category. Racism is the dependence of social status on the social meaning attached to race; colorism is the dependence of social status on skin color alone. In order for a form of discrimination to be considered colorism, differential treatment must not result from racial categorization, but from the social values associated with skin color. [ 1] “The problem of the color line” is a concept created by W. E. B. Du Bois, which explains the divide between light and dark shades of skin color. [ 3]Research has found extensive evidence of discrimination based on skin color in criminal justice, business, labor market, housing, health care, media and politics in the United States and Europe. Lighter skin tones are seen as preferable in many countries in Africa and Asia. Many studies report lower private sector earnings for racial minorities, although it is often difficult to determine the extent to which this is the result of racial discrimination. ["

The Implicit Association Test (IAT) is one such measure that has been used primarily to understand social cognition. The IAT was initially used to measure implicit intergroup attitudes, was quickly adapted to measure implicit stereotypes and self-concept, and has subsequently been used in hundreds of studies of psychological processes, from person perception and intergroup cognition to psychopathology and legal decisions. Indeed, since its introduction in 1998, the IAT has emerged as a dominant measure of implicit cognition, appearing in more than 2,000 published articles. This article briefly reviews the origins, validity, and interpretation of the IAT, the scientific knowledge gained from it and the guidelines for its use in research. Introductory Works Following the call in Greenwald and Banaji 1995 for measures of individual differences in implicit attitudes, stereotypes, and self-esteem, the Implicit Association Test (IAT) was presented in Greenwald, et al. 1998. The test requires subjects to rapidly sort two stimuli together in varying pairs, with the time it takes to complete the pairings and the errors made during the process reflecting the strength of the underlying association between the different classes of stimuli. For example, Greenwald, et al. 1998 shows that subjects tend to respond more quickly when sorting flower names (such as rose, daffodil, tulip) with good words (peace, glory, laughter) and insects (fly, wasp, beetle) with bad words (war, failure, sadness), compared with the opposite pairings (flowers with bad concepts and insects with good concepts)."

How Seattle Is Dismantling a NIMBY Power Structure At a time when rents are soaring and development is more contentious than ever before, a little-known city agency is rethinking its role in neighborhood planning. Story by Erica C. Barnett Twitter Photography by Alex Garland Published on Apr 3, 2017Facebook Twitter Email For decades, activist homeowners have held virtual veto power over nearly every decision on Seattle’s growth and development. Related Stories Atlanta City Planners Have a New Way to Talk to Residents In Two Years, Boston Goes From 5,000 Questions to 15-Year Plan City of Seattle Building Stronger Connections With Community Liaisons Chicago Firm Calls for Creating Office of the Public Architect In large and small ways, these homeowners, who tend to be white, more affluent and older than the average resident, have shaped neighborhoods in their reflection — building a city that is consistently rated as one of the nation’s most livable, as well as one of its most expensive. Now — in the face of an unprecedented housing crisis and a dramatic spike in homelessness — that may be starting to change. Last July, Mayor Ed Murray and the director of the city’s Department of Neighborhoods, Kathy Nyland, announced that Seattle was cutting formal ties with, and funding for, the 13 volunteer Neighborhood District Councils that had been the city’s chief sounding boards on neighborhood planning since the 1990s. Through this bureaucratic sleight of hand, Murray and Nyland signaled their intent to seek more input and feedback from lower-income folks, people of color and renters — who now make up 54 percent of the city — and away from the white baby boomers who have long dominated discussions about Seattle’s future. The message: We appreciate your input, but we’re going to get a second opinion. A few months later, the Department of Neighborhoods doubled down on its commitment to community engagement, putting out a call for volunteers to serve on a new 16-member Community Involvement Commission, which will be charged with helping city departments develop “authentic and thorough” ways to reach “all” city residents, including underrepresented communities such as low-income people, homeless residents and renters."

Organization helps you make sense of what you notice. To help with this, our minds classify each stimulus into categories. These categories are known to psychologists as schema.

The bacterial cytoplasmic elements include homologs of the three major types of eukaryotic cytoskeletal proteins (actin, tubulin, and intermediate filament proteins) and a fourth group, the Min D-Par A group, that appears to be unique to bacteria. The cytoskeletal structures play important roles in cell division, cell polarity, cell shape regulation, plasmid partition, and other functions. The proteins self-assemble into filamentous structures in vitro and form intracellular ordered structures in vivo. In addition, there are a number of filamentous bacterial elements that may turn out to be cytoskeletal in nature. This review attempts to summarize and integrate the in vivo and in vitro aspects of these systems and to evaluate the probable future directions of this active research field. Previous Section Next Section INTRODUCTIONIt is truly breathtaking that within a period of 5 years a longstanding “truth” about one of the major life forms of the planet has been overturned. Although there had been previous indications of organized structures within bacterial cells ( 18, 139, 209 ), including the demonstration by Bi and Lutkenhaus that the tubulin homolog Fts Z forms a ring-like structure at the division site ( 15 ), the period of rapid advance began with the discovery by Jones et al. in 2001 that bacterial actin homologs in Bacillus subtilis are organized into extended helical structures that play key roles in cell shape regulation ( 95 )."

It is a dynamic structure that maintains cell shape, often protects the cell, enables cellular motion (using structures such as flagella, cilia and lamellipodia), and plays important roles in both intracellular transport (the movement of vesicles and organelles, for example) and cellular division. Eukaryotic cells contain three main kinds of cytoskeletal filaments, microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. The cytoskeleton provides the cell's cytoplasm with structure and shape. Not Here · 1 decade ago2 0 Comment Cytosleleton is made up by various proteins, and there are generally three kinds of cytoskeletons: Microtubules, Microfilaments, and Intermediate Filaments. For the microtublues, they are made up by alpha and beta tublins; microfilaments, they consist of actin; and for intermediate filaments, they consist keratin. Different cytoskeletons do have thier unique functions in the cells, but they also have commonalityies with the respect of \"\"skeleton\"\", there are: maintenace of cell shape, and supprt the cell."

"text": "\"Cytoskeleton Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Photo by: Russi & Morelli The cytoskeleton is responsible for cell shape, motility (movement) of the cell as a whole, and motility of organelles within a cell. There are three types of filaments in the cytoplasm of most vertebrate cells: microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments. All of these filament systems share a critical feature: They are composed of proteins that have the unique property of being able to self-assemble into a filamentous network. Imagine a pile of bricks that could assemble by themselves into a wall; the proteins that make up the fibers of the cytoskeleton are able to do just this. The proteins that make each of the three different filament systems assemble into only the structure characteristic of that filament. Unlike the human skeleton, the cytoskeleton is extremely dynamic, meaning the filament systems are able to lengthen or shorten very rapidly. This dynamic nature of the cytoskeleton is necessary for cells to be able to change shape, complete cell division, or migrate, and represents one of the cytoskeleton's most important features. Each of the self-assembling proteins has a characteristic concentration, called the \"\"critical concentration,\"\" below which the monomer state is favored and above which the polymer state is favored. Increasingly, the subunit concentration favors filament building, and decreasing it favors filament deconstruction. This property allows the cell to rapidly control cytoskeleton structure."

Smooth muscle is also present in the eyes, where it functions to change the size of the iris and alter the shape of the lens; and in the skin where it causes hair to stand erect in response to cold temperature or fear.

Smooth muscle fibers are spindle-shaped (wide in the middle and tapered at both ends, somewhat like a football) and have a single nucleus; they range from about 30 to 200 μ m (thousands of times shorter than skeletal muscle fibers), and they produce their own connective tissue, endomysium. Although they do not have striations and sarcomeres, smooth muscle fibers do have actin and myosin contractile proteins, and thick and thin filaments. These thin filaments are anchored by dense bodies. A dense body is analogous to the Z-discs of skeletal and cardiac muscle fibers and is fastened to the sarcolemma. Calcium ions are supplied by the SR in the fibers and by sequestration from the extracellular fluid through membrane indentations called calveoli."

"text": "\"Previous (Carcinogen) Next (Cardinal (Catholicism))Cardiac muscle Cardiac muscle is a type of involuntary striated muscle found only in the walls of the heart. This is a specialized muscle that, while similar in some fundamental ways to smooth muscle and skeletal muscle, has a unique structure and with an ability not possessed by muscle tissue elsewhere in the body. Cardiac muscle, like other muscles, can contract, but it can also carry an action potential (i.e. conduct electricity), like the neurons that constitute nerves. Furthermore, some of the cells have the ability to generate an action potential, known as cardiac muscle automaticity. As the muscle contracts, it propels blood into the heart and through the blood vessels of the circulatory system. For a human being, the heart beats about once a second for the entire life of the person, without any opportunity to rest (Ward 2001). It can adjust quickly to the body's needs, increasing output from five liters of blood per minute to more than 25 liters per minute (Ward 2001). The muscles that contract the heart can do so without external stimulation from hormones or nerves, and it does not fatigue or stop contracting if supplied with sufficient oxygen and nutrients. The actions of cardiac muscle reflect on the remarkable harmony within a body and the underlying principle that individual entities in nature provide a larger function. In order for the heart to work properly, and have the necessary waves of contraction to pump blood, the cardiac cells must fire in intricate coordination with each other."

"text": "Detection of a Heart Defect in the Fetusin Share Tweet Updated: Sep 12,2017What do I do if my child has a heart defect? The finding of a heart defect in the fetus has significant implications for pregnancy management, delivery planning, and diagnosis of abnormalities in other organs. Structural heart defects: Fetal echocardiography can help detect fetal heart abnormalities before birth, allowing for faster medical or surgical intervention once the baby is born if needed. This improves the chance of survival after delivery for babies with serious heart defects. Your pediatric cardiologist will counsel you about the seriousness of the heart defect and tell you what to expect. Some heart defects will not require immediate intervention and the baby can be followed at the delivery hospital and as an outpatient after discharge. Other defects are more serious and require transfer to a hospital with pediatric cardiac surgical services immediately after delivery. In a small number of cases, the condition may be severe enough for the pediatric cardiologist to recommend delivery at a pediatric heart center so that an intervention can be performed within minutes of life. In all cases, these issues should be discussed and planned for during the fetal echocardiography visits. At the current time, prenatal heart surgery and catheterization (balloon procedures) is limited to a small number of conditions and the effectiveness has not been proven."

After accessing the blood stream through the femoral or radial artery, the procedure uses coronary catheterization to visualise the blood vessels on X-ray imaging. After this, an interventional cardiologist can perform a coronary angioplasty, using a balloon catheter in which a deflated balloon is advanced into the obstructed artery and inflated to relieve the narrowing; certain devices such as stents can be deployed to keep the blood vessel open. Various other procedures can also be performed. Primary PCI is the very urgent use of PCI in people with acute myocardial infarction (heart attack), especially where there is evidence of severe heart damage on the electrocardiogram ( ST elevation MI ). PCI is also used in people after other forms of myocardial infarction or unstable angina where there is a high risk of further events. Finallly, PCI may be used in people with stable angina pectoris, particularly if the symptoms are difficult to control with medication. PCI is an alternative to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG, often referred to as \"\"bypass surgery\"\"), which bypasses stenotic arteries by grafting vessels from elsewhere in the body.

"text": "Invasive-interventional cardiologists earn more in median compensation per holiday, weekend and per day of on-call coverage than did most of their cardiology bretheren, according to a report released June 4. The median daily rate for invasive-interventional cardiologists was $650, equal to on-call pay for noninvasive cardiologists but $450 more than what other invasive cardiologists received. Medical Group Management Association (MGMA), which published the report, breaks cardiology into four categories: electrophysiology, invasive, invasive-interventional and noninvasive. The first three categories fall under the umbrella of “invasive” in the MGMA model, according to one American College of Cardiology guide, which likens “invasive-interventional” to “interventional.” Respondents to the survey self-select categories and may have their own interpretation of the terms. Almost 30 percent of physicians reported receiving daily stipends for on-call coverage, with compensation ranging from $1,500 for anesthesiologists to $100 for family medicine (without obstetrics) physicians. The report, titled Medical Directorship and On-Call Compensation Survey: 2012 Report Based on 2011 Data, contains data on 3,864 on-call providers in 308 medical organizations. In the survey, physician specialty is self-defined and may vary among providers. Median on-call pay differed by group type, demographics and location as well. Within invasive-interventional cardiology, physicians in multispecialty groups received $500 per day while their peers in single specialty groups raked in $650."

"text": "\"Tweet\"\"Stent life\"\" is a frequent concern for patients who write to us wondering how long a stent will last, and how to prolong the value of a stent. A metal stent actually is permanent; your body's endothelial cells grow over the metal implant, incorporating the device into the arterial wall for the rest of your life. However, just because the stent device is there doesn't mean it will permanently remain effective in treating your disease. In a minority of cases (less than 10% of cases with 2nd generation Drug-Eluting Stents ), a stent can become reblocked, called \"\" in-stent restenosis .\"\" If this happens and your stented artery closes up, your doctor might re-open the blocked stent with a balloon, or even place another stent inside the blocked stent. In a small number of cases, the stent itself may become fractured or may pull away from the artery wall which may be a cause of restenosis or possibly stent thrombosis, blood clotting inside the stent. The best way to keep a stent from reblocking or the disease from progressing is to reduce as many risk factors as possible. That means lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet and exercise program, quitting smoking, taking the medical therapy and drugs your doctor prescribes, and scheduling an annual check-up visit with your cardiologist to stay on top of disease management. If you can slow or halt your Coronary Artery Disease from progressing, you'll increase your quality of life and prolong your stent's effectiveness. A stent is not a cure for your overall condition, but it can be a lifelong help to you in your fight for good health."

"text": "Detection of a Heart Defect in the Fetus Updated: Feb 26,2018What do I do if my child has a heart defect? The finding of a heart defect in the fetus has significant implications for pregnancy management, delivery planning, and diagnosis of abnormalities in other organs. Structural heart defects: Fetal echocardiography can help detect fetal heart abnormalities before birth, allowing for faster medical or surgical intervention once the baby is born if needed. This improves the chance of survival after delivery for babies with serious heart defects. Your pediatric cardiologist will counsel you about the seriousness of the heart defect and tell you what to expect. Some heart defects will not require immediate intervention and the baby can be followed at the delivery hospital and as an outpatient after discharge. Other defects are more serious and require transfer to a hospital with pediatric cardiac surgical services immediately after delivery. In a small number of cases, the condition may be severe enough for the pediatric cardiologist to recommend delivery at a pediatric heart center so that an intervention can be performed within minutes of life. In all cases, these issues should be discussed and planned for during the fetal echocardiography visits. At the current time, prenatal heart surgery and catheterization (balloon procedures) is limited to a small number of conditions and the effectiveness has not been proven."

"text": "Fetal Echocardiogram Test Updated: Sep 28,2017How is a fetal echocardiogram done? The test is typically performed by a specially trained ultrasound sonographer and the images are interpreted by a pediatric cardiologist who specializes in fetal congenital heart disease. Some maternal-fetal medicine specialists (perinatologist) also perform fetal echocardiograms. A limited evaluation of the fetal heart is possible during regular obstetric scanning and is appropriate for women at low risk. However, women who have one of the risk factors listed above should have a detailed fetal echocardiogram performed by a physician who is specially trained in fetal cardiac evaluation. There are two ways to perform a fetal echocardiogram: Abdominal ultrasound: this is the most common form of ultrasound to evaluate the baby's heart. There is gel applied to the mother's abdomen, the ultrasound probe is gently placed on the mother's abdomen and pictures are taken. This test is not painful and causes no harm to the baby. The test takes an average of 45–120 minutes depending on the complexity of the baby's heart. Endovaginal ultrasound: this ultrasound is typically used early in pregnancy."

Not to be a stickler, but a resident cardiologist doesnt exist. First, a cardiologist must do a three year RESIDENCY in internal medicine, and then they do a FELLOWSHIP in cardiology. Fellows typically make a little more than residents (who average about $43,000 nationwide) at around $50,000 a year. Keep in mind that during this time 70-80 hour weeks are NOT uncommon!!!!! So that really boils down to a terrible hourly wage. However, after those years of training it isn't uncommon for cardiologists to make between 250k-400k."

At a minimum, these protocols should be present in the intensive care unit/coronary care unit and emergency department (ED). Each ED should maintain a standardized reperfusion STEMI care pathway that designates primary PCI as the preferred reperfusion strategy if transfer of patients to a primary PCI hospital/STEMI-Receiving Center can be achieved within times consistent with ACC/AHA guidelines. Each ED should maintain a standardized reperfusion STEMI care pathway that designates fibrinolysis in the ED (for eligible patients) when the system cannot achieve times consistent with ACC/AHA guidelines for primary PCI. If reperfusion strategy is for primary PCI transfer, a streamlined, standardized protocol for rapid transfer and transport to a STEMI-Receiving Center should be operational. If reperfusion strategy is for primary PCI transfer, all patients should be transported to the most appropriate STEMI-Receiving Center where the expected first door-to-balloon (first device used) time should be within 90 minutes (considering ground versus air transport, weather, traffic). The STEMI Referring Center should have an ongoing quality improvement process, including data measurement and feedback, for the STEMI population and collect and submit Mission: Lifeline required data elements (using the ACTION Registry - GWTG Limited form*). A program should be in place to track and improve treatment (acutely and at discharge) with ACC/AHA guideline based Class I therapies. A multidisciplinary STEMI team, including EMS, should review hospital specific STEMI data on a quarterly basis. Door-to-first ECG time (goal <10 minutes)Proportion of STEMI-eligible patients receiving any reperfusion (PCI or fibrinolysis) therapy STEMI Referring Center ED door-to-balloon (first device used) time for patients transferred to PCI center STEMI Referring Center ED door to ED discharge STEMI Referring Center ED door-to-balloon (first device used) time within 90 minutes (including transport time)* The ACTION Registry - GWTG Limited Form is being developed for the use of STEMI Referring Hospitals and will focus on abbreviated STEMI emergency treatment, process times, and discharge data."

Flag Where did the chippewa tribe live? Answer by Clausenfan Confidence votes 17.8KThe Chippewas, Ojibwas, Ojibwes or Anishinaabe people were a loose collection of many different bands speaking similar languages. Originally confined to the area called Sault St Marie by French explorers (where Lake Superior and Lake Huron join), they probably numbered around 35,000 people split into small bands of around 500 each. These bands split into even smaller groups during the winter, when food sources became very scarce. During the 1600s the Ojibwas began to expand southwards, particularly along the south shore of Lake Superior; by 1692 they had also occupied the Chequamegon Bay area and later they established villages at Lac du Flambeau, Lac Court Oreilles and Fond du Lac in Wisconsin and Minnesota, reaching Mille Lacs in Minnesota by the late 1700s. Another Ojibwa group moved into the Ontario peninsula where they were known as Mississaugas. So by 1800 the Ojibwas (or Chippewas) extended across the entire area north of the Great Lakes from the Ottawa river to Lake of the Woods; south and east of Lake Huron (as Mississaugas); south and west of Lake Superior and into Minnesota. The really huge area occupied by this people and their many unconnected bands make it difficult to consider them a \"\"tribe\"\"; they should rather be considered a loose collection of tribal groups who gradually developed different dialects of the same language - at no time would the entire Ojibwa people ever come together as a unit.5 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

"text": "\"COMMENTARY: Around the Arctic December 13, 2013 - 2:58 pm Where does the word “Eskimo” come from? \"\" There’s a plausible etymological connection between Eskimo and the Spanish word Cimmaron\"\"COLIN ALEXANDERIn September the Ottawa Citizen printed an editorial saying it was no longer appropriate to have a Canadian Football League team called the Edmonton Eskimos. Right on!But the editorial went on to repeat the myth that “Eskimo” means “eater of raw meat” in an Amerindian language. Why is that a distinctive characteristic let alone insulting? Lots of people eat raw meat, and smart restaurants call it steak tartare. The definitive negating authority for an Amerindian origin is R. H. Ives Goddard III, senior linguist in the Department of Anthropology at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington. Here’s his conclusion:“In spite of the tenacity of the belief, both among Algonquian speakers and in the anthropological and general literature…that Eskimo means ‘raw-meat eaters’, this explanation fits only the cited Ojibwa forms (containing Proto-Algonquian ashk- ‘raw’ and po- ‘eat’) and cannot be correct for the presumed Montagnais source of the word Eskimo itself…”In any case, Europeans almost always gave their own names to people and places new to them, as they did for American “Indians,” and for Lachine in Quebec when they thought they’d arrived in China. In 1977, in the erroneous belief that “Eskimo” is pejorative, the Inuit Circumpolar Conference in Barrow, Alaska, officially adopted “Inuit” as their designation for all Inuit/Eskimos, from Russia to Greenland. The Canadian government has adopted the word, as have most of the world’s news media. But acceptance is not universal, and problems persist, along with the mistaken myth that “Eskimo” is disparaging."

It is, in every sense, a Stone of Magic, a crystal of shamans, diviners, healers, and all who travel and embrace the universe seeking knowledge and guidance. For self-discovery, it is excellent for awakening one's own awareness of inner spirit, intuition and psychic abilities. Labradorite is also the most powerful protector of the mineral kingdom, creating a shielding force throughout the aura and strengthening natural energies from within. It protects against the negativity and misfortunes of this world, and provides safe exploration into alternate levels of consciousness and in facilitating visionary experiences from the past or the future. [ Ahsian, 226]Labradorite is a member of the Feldspar family and is treasured for its remarkable play of color, known as labradorescence. The stone, usually gray-green, dark gray, black or grayish-white, is composed in aggregate layers that refract light as iridescent flashes of peacock blue, gold, pale green, or coppery red. The predominant blue varies within the light, displaying hues from deepest blue to various shades of pale, almost blue-green. It was discovered in Labrador, Canada, by Moravian missionaries in 1770 who named it for the area. It is, however, referenced in legends by older Inuit tribes, and was known to be in use by the Boethuk peoples of Newfoundland and Labrador."

This is the alarming warning of the Inuit elders to NASA. The Inuits are a group of people inhabiting the Arctic regions of Alaska, Canada, and Greenland. They and their ancestors are known for being accurate weather forecasters. That’s why the warning they’ve spoken has everyone alarmed. According to Inuit elders, the earth has “wobbled” and the “sky has changed. ”Source: andrewlfwong According to them, they have come to the conclusion that the earth has “wobbled” and that the “sky has changed. ”The Inuit elders say that the sun rises at a different spot now, compared to where it did many years ago."

[ 1] The two main peoples known as \"\"Eskimo\"\" are: (1) the Alaskan Iñupiat peoples, Eskimo Inuit, and the mass-grouping Inuit peoples of Canada, and (2) the Yupik of eastern Siberia and Alaska. The Yupik comprise speakers of four distinct Yupik languages: one used in the Russian Far East and the others among people of Western Alaska, Southcentral Alaska and along the Gulf of Alaska coast. A third northern group, the Aleut, is closely related to these two. They share a relatively recent common ancestor, and a language group ( Eskimo-Aleut ). The word \"\"Eskimo\"\" derives from phrases that Algonquin tribes used for their northern neighbors. The Inuit and Yupik peoples generally do not use it to refer to themselves, and the governments in Canada and Greenland have ceased using it in official documents.

There is no commercial hunting of narwhals. Permission to hunt a narwhal is only granted to an Inuk with the understanding that the meat from the animal must not be wasted. It is illegal for someone other than an Inuk to hunt narwhal. We buy our tusks from Arctic Canada.

From ancient South Pacific tribal leaders to modern day science geeks, the art of tattoo has been used to represent many different messages.

The Romans and, subsequently, the Japanese tattooed the foreheads of their slaves with messages like \"\"tax paid\"\" or other pertinent information for their oppressors. Tattoos were also used as political statements. The Japanese whole body tattoo was created in response to a law that only the Imperial Family or the very wealthy were allowed to wear elaborate clothing.

How the Northern Inuit Came to Be The Northern Inuit, which resembles a cross between a German shepherd and malamute, is a relatively new dog breed established in the 1980s by U. K.breeder Edwina “Eddie” Harrison. Often mistaken as a wolf hybrid, the Northern Inuit caused quite an uproar in Britain when initially advertised as belonging to the aggressive wolf family. Dog experts say these dogs are a mix of several rescue dogs of unknown origins, along with the Alaskan malamute, German Shepherd, and Siberian husky. The result is a dog breed not only exquisitely beautiful but canines with great temperaments that make wonderful pets—provided that they are adopted by the right people. Pros and Cons of the Northern Inuit Breed Pros This dog breed is friendly, affectionate and loyal and is a great family dog. Northern Inuits are good with kids. Unlike other breeds like Rottweilers, they are docile. The breed gets along well with other pets, especially other dogs."

Some of the Inuit's concerns were about how oil, gas and mineral exploration in the north would affect them.

However, if there are people who depend on your income - especially children or a spouse - there's a major benefit to taking out a policy when you're young. When you take out a policy in your 20s or 30s, the provider takes into account that you're paying premiums for a number of years when, statistically, there's relatively little risk that they'll have to pay out. Unfortunately, that risk goes up a little with each passing year."

The financial services profession is debating whether or not a practitioner is acting as a fiduciary when he or she delivers advice and services to clients. Let us address this issue briefly and then move on to the bigger issue of how to deal with this once you determine that you are, in fact, acting as a fiduciary. ( And, you probably are.) Defining a fiduciary might be as simple as saying it is a person who has legal and/or moral responsibility for managing someone else's money. If we accept this broad definition, then most financial advisors would be considered fiduciaries, including wirehouse brokers. A registered investment advisor (RIA) is always a fiduciary; for the dually registered broker/RIA, one would need to study the client services agreement to determine whether a fiduciary relationship exists. An investment consultant could be deemed a fiduciary: When the consultant has discretion over a client's assets. When the client is dependent upon the consultant's advice. When the consultant is providing a client with comprehensive and continuous investment advice."

Actuaries are problem solvers who use actuarial science to define, analyze, and solve the financial, economic, and other business applications of future events. The actuary's responsibilities date back to the early 1800's, when most actuarial work centered on developing mortality tables and life insurance policies. Today most actuaries are best known for their work in the insurance and pension fields, where they design financially secure benefit programs to protect people. But that is changing, and actuaries are finding themselves involved in many other areas. Trained to analyze uncertainty, risk, and probabilities, actuaries create and manage programs which will reduce the adverse financial impact of the expected and unexpected things that happen to people and businesses. These programs focus on areas such as life, health, property, casualty, and investment possibilities. Projects with which actuaries may be involved can be as varied as: Determining a company's monetary value in a merger or acquisition.

Share Investing Answers Sort By: Most Helpful September 2012+ Follow Investopedia New York, NYwww.investopedia.com97 % of people found this answer helpful Investing and trading are two very different methods of attempting to profit in the financial markets. The goal of investing is to gradually build wealth over an extended period of time through the buying and holding of a portfolio of stocks, baskets of stocks, mutual funds, bonds and other investment instruments. Investors often enhance their profits through compounding, or reinvesting any profits and dividends into additional shares of stock. Investments are often held for a period of years, or even decades, taking advantage of perks like interest, dividends and stock splits along the way. While markets inevitably fluctuate, investors will \"\"ride out\"\" the downtrends with the expectation that prices will rebound and any losses will eventually be recovered. Investors are typically more concerned with market fundamentals, such as price/earnings ratios and management forecasts. Trading, on the other hand, involves the more frequent buying and selling of stock, commodities, currency pairs or other instruments, with the goal of generating returns that outperform buy-and-hold investing. While investors may be content with a 10 to 15% annual return, traders might seek a 10% return each month. Trading profits are generated through buying at a lower price and selling at a higher price within a relatively short period of time."

"text": "\"Frequently Asked Questions Investment Advisor Registration The following are some of the more common questions asked about the investment advisor registration process. It’s important to recognize that although there is a certain level of similarity between the various state securities regulators and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) with respect to the regulation of investment advisors, there are significant variances among state securities regulators and the SEC. The answers listed below will not address such differences. The information presented here is general in nature and not a substitute for consulting with an investment advisor compliance consultant and/or attorney regarding your unique circumstances and the requirements of the securities regulator (s) with jurisdiction over your investment advisor firm. What’s an investment advisor? Is there a substantive difference between the terms \"\"investment adviser\"\" and \"\"investment advisor\"\"? What is an “RIA”? Should my firm register with the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission (\"\"SEC\"\") or with a state securities regulator as an investment advisor? What happens if a new firm without any AUM registers as an investment advisor with the SEC and fails to acquire at least $100 million of AUM within 120 days of the effective date of the investment advisor registration? Do I personally register as an investment advisor or should I establish a corporation or limited liability company?"

"text": "\"« Advisor Insights What are the risks associated with a Roth IRA? Share IRAs, Retirement Plans Answers Sort By: Most Helpful October 2017+ Follow Stewart, Dan Dallas, TXwww.revereasset.com83 % of people found this answer helpful A Roth is simply the type of account which is theoretically supposed to be used for retirement. However, it is much more flexible than a Traditional IRA because you don't get a tax deduction on contributions. Therefore you can take out contributions at any time for any reason without penalties or taxes. It is only the growth/income that MAY have penalties or taxes if you don't meet the 5 year rule and/or are under 59 1/2. What you might be asking is more toward the investments held inside of the Roth. You could own virtually any asset class from uber conservative to highly risky as with any type of brokerage account. It is really the assets inside of the Roth that could make it risky. But with the Roth recepticle itself though, the only \"\"risk\"\" could be the lack of liquidity on the growth/income (only). Hope this helps and best of luck, Dan Stewart CFA®Schedule Consultation Was this answer helpful?"

"text": "Contractors The 10 biggest challenges businesses face today (and need consultants for)March 24, 2017If you’re one of the many business owners spinning numerous plates and tackling everything that needs doing single-handed, or indeed if you’re a consultant helping said business owners in areas outside their expertise, how does this top 10 list resonate with you? We live in rapidly changing times, especially for businesses. Consider that, in a single generation, businesses have had to adapt to entirely new marketing channels (web and social), decide how to invest in and utilize new technologies, and compete on a global stage — things that were barely imaginable to our parents’ and grandparents’ generations. One side effect of these rapid changes and growth is that no single CEO — or any employee, for that matter — can be an expert in everything. This was, perhaps, always true, but it has never been more apparent. This is why, in my opinion, some of the biggest challenges businesses face today are best met and addressed with qualified consultants. Bringing on a consultant helps CEOs add the expertise and skills they need to address particular problems at particular times, and can provide the best possible outcomes. Just a few of the challenges I see businesses facing that are best addressed with the help of a consultant include: Uncertainty about the future Being able to predict customer trends, market trends, etc. is vital to a changing economic climate, but not every CEO has Warren Buffett-like predictive powers. Bringing in a consultant trained in reading and predicting those all-important trends could be the difference between a bright future and a murky one."

"text": "\"Will an MBA get me into I-banking? Investment Banking is attractive not only to fresh graduates, but also to a lot of professionals in other fields that would like to make the switch intothe industry. The bad news is that it is quite difficult to move intoinvestment banking if you are working in another industry or if you don'tdo something that is already somewhat similar to investment banking (i.e.accounting, audit, corporate strategy, strategy consulting). The goodnews, however, is that there is a very common and popular way to breakinto investment banking: the MBA. Why is it difficult to switch into investment banking without an MBA? Investment Banking careers are very standardised, and most people either join when they graduate from university, after an MBA, or they join from other banks. The exceptions are for qualifiedaccountants, auditors, and sometimes for people working in corporate strategy, because their skillsare similar and transferable, but even then, they're a minority and often have to start from scratch at the bottom. The reason is that the lifestyle and skillset required for M&A work does not really exist in most other industries: extremely long hours (up to 100+/week), very high levels of stress, constant pressure,and ability to build complex valuation models from scratch (at all hours). Learning and adjusting tothis takes a lot of time, so this is why the indutry is hard to get into from the outside. Why do banks hire MBAs?"

Your Investment Property explains how you can fast-track your application by knowing how to deal with the council The rich, moist smell of earth breaking, the warmth of sun reflecting off tile, the sensation of jagged brick in the palm of your hand – every aspect of your development is vivid in your mind; you see it when you close your eyes, dream of it while you are asleep. You have the land; you’ve been granted finance – nothing can stop you now, right? Wrong. Once you have finance, the battle has only just begun as now it is time to deal with your local council. For the lucky few, dealing with council can be a straightforward process, but it can become the bane of your property developer existence. So before you start navigating your way through the myriad of documentation needed to develop land, it is wise to understand what is required and why. In Australia, housing is a highly regulated industry, and that means sometimes you are going to have to jump through hoops to get your project off the ground. Anyone looking to develop residential property in Australia must comply with legislation from all levels of government, but mostly from your local council. This is because council is usually required to implement state and federal building regulations at a local level, and in doing so has the authority to develop local policies that relate to development."

"text": "A: Tax accounting generally costs less than $100 for simple tax returns, and it takes only a few hours to prepare and complete a tax return. Certified public accountants generally charge at least twice that amount, since CPAs have the necessary skills to tackle the core of problematic business and investment issues. However, the cost of tax accounting differs if parts of the tax filings are under special cases and take longer for the accountant to complete the tax returns. In these circumstances, accountants charge more due to consultation fees and overtime work. Although doing taxes independently using tax software saves money over hiring an accountant, the costs of hiring an accountant is also beneficial to the individual. Accountants prepare tax returns with much more sophisticated software, compared to software sold to consumers. These programs have high data rates that scan financial information quickly and organize data accurately. The computerized organization in the software will decrease unnecessary errors in tax returns. The cost of tax accounting also includes numerous services, including accounting, record-keeping, tax consultation and auditing. Accountants provide assistance in building up an effective accounting system to accurately and conveniently assess profitability, monitor prices and expenses, control budgets and forecast future speculation trends."

"text": "\"A chartered financial advisor is an individual who assists clients with investment decisions. The financial advisor provides analysis of various investment vehicles and financial instruments. This analysis is used by the advisor to offer guidance to the client regarding the client’s financial planning and investment strategy. The primary focus of the chartered financial advisor is to counsel the client concerning decisions that will positively impact the client’s future financial position. As such, the job of the financial advisor involves knowledge of tax laws, insurance, annuities, and other investment and savings options. An understanding of estate planning is also helpful. Chartered financial advisors, also referred to as financial planners or financial consultants, work with individuals, small businesses, and corporations. A financial planner who consults with mostly individuals as clients is usually designated as a personal financial advisor. The term “ financial consultant ” is usually reserved for those who are employed by a financial services company, such as a stock brokerage firm. No specialized training is required to assume the title of chartered financial advisor."

The commission, which had been for months on what--if any--conditions should be imposed on the merger, accepted conditions that AT&T had proposed in a formal letter sent to the commission on Thursday. The merger was approved by 4-0 vote. First announced in March, the merger will create a super-size AT&T that will become the nation's dominant phone company, controlling more than half the telephone and Internet access lines in the U. S. The merger follows two other major telecommunications mergers. In 2005, Verizon Communications announced the acquisition of MCI, and SBC Communications said it would acquire AT&T. Even though regulators approved these mergers only on the basis of certain conditions, the deal between AT&T and Bell South easily won unconditional approval earlier this year from the antitrust division of the Department of Justice. This infuriated the two FCC Democratic commissioners, Jonathan Adelstein and Michael Copps, who had expected some conditions to be placed on the merger. Meanwhile, the fifth commissioner, Robert Mc Dowell, a Republican, had recused himself from the vote because before his confirmation to the FCC earlier this year, he had represented an industry group opposed to the merger. This left only four commissioners to decide the fate of the merger. After it became clear that the Democrats would approve the merger only with certain conditions and that Republicans favored few if any conditions, the FCC's general counsel cleared Mc Dowell to vote to break the tie. But Mc Dowell reaffirmed his decision to stay out of the discussion and not to vote on the merger."

"text": "\"How much Internet speed is right for you? Tony Moton, Yahoo! Homes • February 13, 2013Internet speed - or a lack thereof - could influence the quality of experience you have with everything from emailing and web browsing to online gaming and video conferencing. So, to help you figure out what speed is right for you, you should first understand that connection speeds are calibrated in megabits per second (Mb or Mbps), a number referring to how many bits of data - in millions - can be moved in a second. The other factor for measuring speeds is bandwidth, or the \"\"size of the conduit in which the data is traveling,\"\" says David Salway, director of the Broadband Program Office for New York State. Do you want to get up to speed on Internet speeds? Keep reading to find out how much Internet speed is right for you... Download Speed: 1-4 Mbps When you purchase Internet service, you might be offered packages grouped by speeds in various tiers. The 1-4 Mbps tier is at the lowest end of today's connection speeds, thus accounting for a lower price range, according to Salway. What can you expect at this tier? \"\" There will be buffering as videos catch up,\"\" Salway explains, referring to delays in the streaming, or delivery, of media content."

"text": "\"RF Distribution The digital switchover presents a bit of a nightmare for hotel owners and (on a much smaller scale) the same problem applies at home - should each individual TV set have its own digibox, and what alternative ways of routing TV signals are available? Starting with the simplest possible configuration: The TV aerial feeds down to one TV and provides analogue (if the signals are still there) and digital signals (if they are available). There is no distribution here, any other TV set would be working independently (e.g. from a set-top aerial). By adding a \"\"loft box\"\" the TV aerial signal can be distributed to a number of different rooms, providing both the analogue and digital signals at each TV outlet: Provided each TV set has its own tuner / digibox, then all TVs are capable of viewing independent channels. This is a simple aerial distribution configuration. A digibox for every TV set works fine if there is an aerial distribution system in place. Relying on a set-top aerial for Freeview may give picture and sound interruptions due to insufficient signal or margin. By routing the TV aerial down to the lounge initially, it is possible to \"\"add\"\" another \"\"channel\"\", which could come from e.g. a VCR, a Freeview box (with modulator), or from a Satellite receiver (with modulator): The output from the UHF modulator has all the original TV signals from the aerial plus one additional analogue channel, which is fed back up to the loft box for distribution around the other rooms / TV sets. One Freeview box in the lounge can then be viewed on all the other TVs, but they are restricted to watching the same Freeview channel that has been selected in the lounge (unless they have their own dedicated Freeview box). The channel number used for the additional \"\"channel\"\" can usually be adjusted, but needs to be carefully chosen to avoid interference with the other analogue channels."

This page includes words for Mother, Father, Grandmother, Grandfather, and Other Relatives.

"text": "All of four months ago – seems about a quarter that long ago – I posted about my Cork Smiddy and Beausang roots. Judging from some of the search terms that direct to my blog, it seems there’s a good bit of demand out there for the Beausang part in particular. So, I’ve decided to put up my thoughts on the roots of the Beausang surname (and of course its many many variants, including Boozan (e), Bouzan (e), Boosean (e), Beausan (e)… well, you get the point.) I guess the aim of this two-part post is twofold: firstly, can we shed any light on where most Beausang/Boozan families in Ireland & North America originate? And secondly, as a by-product, what is the connection or chronology of the name Beausang and its variants across France, Ireland and North America? Assuming that Beausang, which is clearly not an indigenous Irish surname, ultimately comes from France, there are, as I see it, three options in relation to the roots of the Irish clan – and what I believe is its offshoot North American clan – of Beausang/Boozan/Bouzane: Firstly, they could be descended from French Huguenot emigrants of the 1600s or 1700s. Secondly, they could be descended from those fleeing France around the time of the French Revolution. Thirdly, they could be neither – i.e. they could indeed be of French origin, but may have emigrated at a different point in time and for reasons other than religious persecution or the Revolution. As the Huguenot Society of Great Britain & Ireland states, “people have emigrated from France… for various reasons, not just religious, and at various times. French families moved… both before and after the Huguenots."

"text": "\"Mac and O in Irish Surnames The successive invasions of Ireland from Strongbow to Cromwell, culminating in the final destruction of the Gaelic order and the long drawn out subjection of the Irish people under the eighteenth century penal code, together with the plantations of foreign settlers and the more peaceful infiltration of Englishmen in the commercial life of the country, have made Irish surnames more mixed than those of a nation with a less disturbed history. The situation can no doubt be paralleled in several mid-European states, but there is nothing comparable to it in any of our nearer neighbours such as England, France, Germany, Holland or Spain, where foreign names are exceptional and native ones are seldom hidden under alien guise. This latter is a phenomenon which is extremely common in Ireland. It has often been stated that surnames were introduced into Ireland by King Brian Boru. Though this cannot be accepted as historically accurate it is a fact that Ireland was one of the first countries to adopt a system of hereditary surnames or perhaps it would be truer to say that such a system developed spontaneously. At any rate the Macs and O's were well established as such more than a century before the Cambro-Normans or, as they are more usually called, the Anglo-Normans, came. It is hardly necessary to state that these prefixes denote descent, mac (son) indicating that the surname was formed from the personal names, or sometimes calling, of the father of the first man to bear that surname, while O names are derived from a grandfather or even earlier ancestor, o or ua being the Irish word for grandson, or more loosely male descendant. Many instances occur of Mac names and some of O names in the Annals, lists of bishops and other records relating to the centuries between the time of St. Patrick and that of Brian Boru. These, however, were not hereditary surnames, but merely indicated the father (or grandfather) of the man in question. Thus to take, by way of example, two successors of St. Patrick in the see of Armagh, Torbac Mac Gormain (d. 812) and Diarmuid O Tighearnaigh (d. 852), these were not members of families called Mac Gorman and O'Tierney, but were respectively son of a man whose baptismal name was Gorman and grandson of one who was christened Tierney."

My great-great-grandmother was one-fourth Cherokee (Tiptendille Tribe-TN). Would the traces of the Native American heritage be so minute that they would not be evident anymore?— Shauna Answer: The short answer is yes, the traces of Native American DNA in your test may be too small to detect. Let’s look at why. If your great-great-grandmother was ¼ Cherokee, then it was her grandparent that was 100% Native American. And that would be your 4th-great-grandparent. Now your great-great-grandmother would get 50% of her DNA from her mother and 50% from her father. To make this easy, let’s divide by 2 for every generation. So how much of your great-great-grandmother’s DNA are you likely to have?"

They were to be married in a church on St Stephen’s Green on April 23, Easter Sunday, 1916, but history intervened. Joseph Mary Plunkett ( Seosamh Máire Pluincéid) ( 1887-1916)Joseph Plunkett is certainly best remembered today for his part in the Easter Rising; he was the youngest of the seven signatories of the Proclamation, but in addition to being an ardent nationalist, he was also a poet of considerable talent and a journalist. He was born on November 21, 1887, on Upper Fitzwilliam Street, in one of Dublin’s more affluent neighborhoods, the second of seven children. Although he was born into a wealthy family (his father was a papal count), his life was not easy: he contacted tuberculosis as a young child, which affected him all the remainder of his short life. He was not always given the best treatment for his condition, and sometimes underwent medical procedures that made him sicker. As a result, he spent a lot of time sick in bed as a child and youth, but he didn’t squander that time; he had many interests and read about photography, radio and other new technologies. He also learned Esperanto, another of his modern interests - it had been introduced the year he was born. As part of the effort to ease his suffering from TB, he later spent time traveling in Italy, Algeria, and Egypt, where the climate was thought to be more salubrious to his condition. This was likely between 1909 and 1911."

When I call his cell, Sam Shepard is in Utah, shooting the film Darling Companion. It’s a fitting locale for the Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright-actor whose persona and plays (Buried Child, True West, Curse of the Starving Class) have been bound with the rural West. He lives on a working farm in Kentucky, where, he says, “I ride horses, make coffee and sit around and write.” Born in suburban Fort Sheridan, Shepard, one of the most dominant influences in American theater, last week turned 67, the same age as his father when he died (that thought “comes and goes,” Shepard says simply).

His paternal grandfather was Irish, and the rest of his family was Mexican. After starting life in extremely modest circumstances in Mexico, his family moved to Los Angeles, where he grew up in the Boyle Heights and Echo Park neighborhoods. He attended Polytechnic High School and later Belmont High, but eventually dropped out. The young Quinn boxed (which stood him in good stead as a stage actor, when he played Stanley Kowalski in \"\"A Streetcar Named Desire\"\" to rave reviews in Chicago), then later studied architecture under Frank Lloyd Wright at the great architect's studio, Taliesin, in Arizona. Quinn was close to Wright, who encouraged him when he decided to give acting a try. After a brief apprenticeship on stage, Quinn hit Hollywood in 1936 and picked up a variety of small roles in several films at Paramount, including an Indian warrior in The Plainsman (1936), which was directed by the man who later became his father-in-law, Cecil B. De Mille. As a contract player at Paramount, Quinn mainly played villains and ethnic types, such as an Arab chieftain in the Bing Crosby - Bob Hope vehicle Road to Morocco (1942). As a Mexican national (he did not become an American citizen until 1947), he was exempt from the draft. With many actors in the service fighting World War II, Quinn was able to move up into better supporting roles."

"text": "Roots: The Dowlings The crest of the Dowling clan. By Adam Farley, Editorial Assistant December / January 2014In 1609, the few patrician members of the Dowling clan were transplanted from their native Laois to the border of north Kerry and west Limerick, dividing the clan’s geography. Today, the majority of Dowlings can be found still in the east of Ireland, where the new British landowners generally ignored the lay clansmen in their home territory along the western bank of the River Barrow. That region, anciently known as Fearann ua n-Dunlaing, or the Dowlings’ country, hints at the etymology of the name, which is theorized to be one of the few “residential” surnames in Irish, coming from dun, fort, and laing, possibly a corruption of the Irish long, meaning ship. After the transplantation of the clan’s leaders, the remainders in Laois spread east and south down the River Barrow through Counties Carlow, Kilkenny, and eventually Wicklow. In fact, in the Rathdrum area of Wicklow, there are at least four townlands called Ballydowling. It is from this area that the oldest notable Dowling emerged: Thady Dowling (1544 – 1628), an annalist and Irish language grammarian. Coming forward in the centuries and across the pond, another man of learning was Victor J. Dowling (1866 – 1934), a New York State Supreme Court Justice and an active Knight in numerous Catholic chivalric orders, including the Order of St. Gregory the Great, Papal Chamberlain of the Cape and Sword. Another law man was the London-born colonial official Sir James Dowling (1787 – 1844), whose father was from Laois. This Dowling went on to be the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of New South Wales and wrote numerous influential treatises."

Here at Claddagh Design we are much better with hammers rather than hornpipes. And the only Irish dancing we do these days is the occasional ‘ Siege of Ennis ‘ at a wedding. So we thought it would be a good idea to share everything you need to know about Irish dancing!Irish dancing is a very important part of the heritage and culture of Ireland; just like the Irish language, native sports like Gaelic Football or Hurling, and traditional Irish music. In the past few decades Irish dancing has seen a huge revival, partly because of the worldwide success of Riverdance. However, it was around long before Michael Flatley and Riverdance. Learning Irish dancing is a regular extra curricular activity of many Irish children, and it always features prominently at Irish themed events like St. Patrick’s Day. It’s not exactly comparable to modern dancing, but that’s what makes it so special. Here is a complete guide to everything you could ever want to know about this wonderful part of Irish life. History The roots of Irish dancing come from the Celts and the druids who roamed the island before the onset of Christianity and outside influences came along."

Hornpipe is another hard shoe dance, which has a 4/4 time yet with a pause on the first and third beats, and a shorter second and fourth beat. The tempo allows for a more bouncy dance, and makes the dance more lively and appealing. Like Treble Jig, hornpipe is danced in both traditional speed (138 bpm) by beginners and non-traditional (112 bmp) speed that allow for a different number of sounds and movements at each tempo. Hornpipes are one of my favorite hard shoe dances because I like the bouncy feel, and I feel like my ability to count with the music is much easier than that of treble jig. I’ve heard that if you love Hornpipe, you love Slip Jig, and that if you love Treble Jig, you love reel, so far that is true for me, but then again every type of dance is still Irish and is still fun!View a Hornpipe Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available.

These dances usually consist of stomps, clicks of the heels, and trebles (shuffles) that draw attention to spectators and judges while performing. Many traditional sets are danced to treble jig time, such as Blackthorn Stick and St. Patrick’s Day which make it easier to find the rhythm and sing-songy feel most traditional sets have. In treble jig beginners usually dance to traditional time (92 bpm) while more advanced dancers will dance to non-traditional or slow time (72 bpm) which allows for more steps in the same length."

"text": "Home : Articles : Arts / Lifestyle : A Short History of Irish Dance A Short History of Irish Dance Articles 22/05/2009Irish dancing has been enjoying renewed popularity in recent years, largely due to Irish dance stage shows like Riverdance and Lord of the Dance. The nature of the Irish dance tradition has changed and adapted over the centuries to accomodate and reflect changing populations and the fusion of new cultures. The history of Irish dancing is as a result a fascinating one. The popular Irish dance stage shows of the past ten years have reinvigorated this cultural art, and today Irish dancing is healthy, vibrant, and enjoyed by people across the globe. In this clip dancer Breandán de Gallaí talks about his time with Riverdance and his life before he was a professional dancer. A Changing Vision of Irish Dance Opinion is divided as to the exact origins of Irish dance. What is certain is that it has been around in some form for centuries, although its early form would be far removed from modern Irish dance. Irish dance has evolved and absorbed influences of new cultures over a long period of time to create hybrid offshoots, resulting in the three main forms of Irish dance today. These are: social dance, including céilí and set dancing, seán-nós dancing, and step dancing, arguably the form which has received the most exposure in recent years. Dance features prominently Ireland’s mythology and history."

The British equivalents of the term gandy dancer are \"\" navvy \"\" (from \"\"navigator\"\"), originally builders of canals or \"\"inland navigations\"\", for builders of railway lines, and \"\" platelayer \"\" for workers employed to inspect and maintain the track.

The Chinese, Mexican Americans, and Native Americans in the Western United States, the Irish in the Midwestern United States, and East Europeans and Italians in the Northeastern United States all worked as gandy dancers. Though all gandy dancers sang railroad songs, it may be that African American gandy dancers from the Southern United States, with a long tradition of using song to coordinate work, were unique in their use of task-related work chants. There are various theories about the derivation of the term, but most refer to the \"\"dancing\"\" movements of the workers using a specially manufactured 5-foot (1.52 m) \"\"lining\"\" bar, which came to be called a \"\"gandy\"\", as a lever to keep the tracks in alignment.

They follow several larger-than-life characters -- including those played by Jessica Alba, Bruce Willis and the late Brittany Murphy -- through their lives and, for some of them, their deaths. Each endures an urban nightmare of seedy alleys, strip clubs, cheap motel rooms and winding back roads to rescue, defend or avenge a woman. Sin City: The story Hartigan (Bruce Willis) is a no-nonsense cop who, after saving a little girl (Makenzie Vega) from a brutal child-rapist named Junior (Nick Stahl), is punished for his good deed and spends the next 10 years in a solitary prison cell. Once released, Hartigan has cause to thank heaven for the little girl who's grown up in the most delightful way: Nancy (Jessica Alba) is now a lasso-swinging exotic dancer who's fallen deeply in love with him. Marv (Mickey Rourke) has a churlish countenance, but at his center has a heart of Goldie -- Goldie (Jaime King) being the pulchritudinous prostitute who was murdered after their one glorious night together. Marv makes it his quest to hunt down and kill her killer. This is the flagship story, and it's wonderfully infused with Rourke's pervading presence. Another story in the anthology follows Dwight (Clive Owen), a red Converse-wearing, trench-coated Weegee-esque newspaper photographer who has a hand in committing a most unfortunate murder and then must go to great lengths (and depths!) to cover it up."

I’ve decided to break up the Irish dances by the shoes worn for each. Each dance school choreographs its own steps to reel, jig, slip jig, or hornpipe music. The only dances that have common steps are the traditional set dances, which I will talk about later. Dances are referred as \"\"soft shoe dances\"\" when the dancers wear shoes without the fiberglass taps. Girls wear ghillies (bottom picture), which are similar to ballet shoes, while boys wear shoes similar to hard shoes (top picture), only without a fiberglass tip on the front. There are three solo dances that are performed in soft-shoes, and all ceili dancing is done in soft-shoe. These dances are the reel, light jig, and slip jig.

A curtsey (also spelled curtsy, courtesy in British English, [1] or incorrectly as courtsey) is a traditional gesture of greeting, in which a girl or woman bends her knees while bowing her head. It is the female equivalent of male bowing in Western cultures. Miss Manners characterizes its knee bend as deriving from a \"\"traditional gesture of an inferior to a superior.\"\" [ 2] The word \"\"curtsey\"\" is a phonological change from \"\"courtesy\"\" known in linguistics as syncope. According to Desmond Morris, the motions involved in the curtsey and the bow were similar until the 17th century, and the gender differentiation between the actions developed afterwards. The earlier, combined version is still performed by Restoration comedy actors. ["

There are celebrations of this saint and his saintly day all around the world. Here in the U. S., we turn rivers, food and beer green for the day, paint our faces green, put on every piece of green clothing we can find, watch a green parade and then drink everything in sight, all for the sake of some strange guy named St. Patrick from another country. Why? Well, it’s been a while since we’ve had a reason to party during the long, cold winter. Also, it's fun!So, how do people in other countries celebrate St. Patrick’s Day? Are we the only ones who turn everything green and test the limits of our alcohol and corned-beef tolerance? Ireland Obviously, the mother ship of St. Patrick’s Day celebrations is docked in Ireland, and most especially Dublin. On the Emerald Isle, St. Pat’s is a public holiday at the level of Christmas or Easter. Everything is closed except pubs and restaurants."

The sound is made by shoes that have a metal \"\"tap\"\" on the heel and toe. Two major variations on tap dance exist: rhythm (jazz) tap and Broadway tap. Broadway tap focuses on dance; it is widely performed in musical theater. Rhythm tap focuses on musicality, and practitioners consider themselves to be a part of the jazz tradition. There are different brands of shoes which sometimes differ in the way they sound. \"\" Soft-shoe\"\" is a rhythm form of tap dancing that does not require special shoes, and though rhythm is generated by tapping of the feet, it also uses sliding of the feet (even sometimes using scattered sand on the stage to enhance the sound of sliding feet) more often than modern rhythm tap. It preceded what is currently considered to be modern tap, but has since declined in popularity."

[ 2] At the time, Bill Whelan and Dónal Lunny composed the music, augmenting the Irish folk band Planxty with a rock rhythm section of electric bass and drums and a four-piece horn section. The piece was performed, with accompanying ballet dancers, during the interval of the contest, and later released as a Planxty single. Whelan had also produced East Wind, a 1992 album by Planxty member Andy Irvine with Davy Spillane, which fused Irish and Balkan folk music and influenced the genesis of Riverdance. [ 3] Thirteen years later, Whelan was invited to do the intermission piece for another Eurovision Song Contest in Dublin, and composed Riverdance. ["

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Entertainment & Arts Performing Arts Dance Ballet Why wear tights in ballet? Flag Why wear tights in ballet? Answer by Dane Youssef Confidence votes 1.9Kwe wear tights to give us freedom of movement while we dance, it would be impossible to perform some of the moves needed if you were wearing jeans etc. Also they do not rub. Another reason is that they make it easier for a teacher to see what we are doing and help to improve our dance technique. A further reason it they are simple and tight, so they fit into soft and point shoes like no socks could, and if they get ruined they are fairly cheap to replace. The tights allow more freedom of movement that just about any other leg garment. Even sweat-pants wouldn't give you that much slack. Tights keep the legs fairly warm, allow those to see your legs and feet quite clearly and absorb perspiration fairly well. It's just the most logical choice."

"text": "\"A Brief History of Clog Dancingby Jeff Driggs, Editor of the Double Toe Times Clogging Magazine Clogging is a truly American dance form that began in the Appalachian Mountains and now enjoys widespread popularity throughout the (United States and around the world. As the Appalachians were settled in the mid 1700's by the Irish, Scottish, English and Dutch-Germans, the folk dances of each area met and began to combine in an impromptu foot-tapping style, the beginning of clog dancing as we know it today. Accompanied by rousing fiddle and bluegrass music, clogging was a means of personal expression in a land of newfound freedoms. Clogging is a dance that is done in time with the music - to the downbeat usually with the heel keeping rhythm. As clogging made its way to the flatlands, other influences shaped it. From the Cherokee Indians, to African Blacks and Russian Gypsies, clogging has enveloped many different traditions to become truly a \"\"melting pot\"\" of step dances. For the most part, clogging evolved as an individual form of expression, with a person using his feet as an instrument to make rhythmic and percussive sounds to accompany the music. At the turn of the century, many cloggers began to add this developing step dance to the square dances that had been enjoyed in their communities for decades. One of clog dancing's most renowned founders, Bascom Lamar Lunsford of Asheville, North Carolina, helped to popularize the art of team clogging by adding it as a category of competition in the annual Mountain Dance and Folk Festival held in Asheville during the late 1920's. A group called the Soco Gap Cloggers won the competition with a routine featuring precision mountain figures accompanied by freestyle step dancing."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Cultural appropriation in the fashion industry)navigation search Cultural appropriation is a concept in sociology dealing with the adoption of the elements of a minority culture by members of the dominant culture. [ 1] [2] [3] It is distinguished from equal cultural exchange due to the presence of a colonial element and imbalance of power. [ 4] [3] Cultural appropriation is often portrayed as harmful in contemporary cultures, and is claimed to be a violation of the collective intellectual property rights of the originating, minority cultures, notably indigenous cultures and those living under colonial rule. [ 2] [5] [6] Often unavoidable when multiple cultures come together, cultural appropriation can include using other cultures' cultural and religious traditions, fashion, symbols, language, and songs. [ 7] [8] [9]According to critics of the practice, cultural appropriation differs from acculturation, assimilation, or cultural exchange in that this appropriation is a form of colonialism: cultural elements are copied from a minority culture by members of a dominant culture, and these elements are used outside of their original cultural context—sometimes even against the expressly stated wishes of members of the originating culture. [ 3] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14]Often, the original meaning of these cultural elements is lost or distorted, and such displays are often viewed as disrespectful, or even as a form of desecration, by members of the originating culture. [ 10] [15] [16] [17] Cultural elements which may have deep meaning to the original culture may be reduced to \"\" exotic \"\" fashion or toys by those from the dominant culture. [ 10] [11] [18] Kjerstin Johnson has written that, when this is done, the imitator, \"\"who does not experience that oppression is able to 'play', temporarily, an 'exotic' other, without experiencing any of the daily discriminations faced by other cultures.\"\" [ 18] The African-American academic, musician and journalist Greg Tate argues that appropriation and the \"\"fetishizing\"\" of cultures, in fact, alienates those whose culture is being appropriated. [ 19]Some writers on the topic note that the concept is often misunderstood by the general public, and that charges of \"\"cultural appropriation\"\" are at times misapplied to situations that don't accurately fit, such as eating at restaurants of a variety of cultures, or learning about different cultures.

"text": "\"Irish stepdancing (one type of \"\"Irish dance\"\") is a type of recreational and competitive folk dance that has been recently popularized by the world-famous \"\"Riverdance\"\", \"\"Celtic Tiger\"\", and \"\"Lord of the Dance\"\". The dance form has its roots in Ireland. When performed as a solo dance, it is generally characterized by a stiff upper body and the quick and precise movements of the feet. Stepdancing as a modern form is descended directly from sean nós (\"\"old style\"\") stepdancing. There are in fact many other forms of stepdancing in Ireland (such as the Connemara style stepdancing), but the style most familiar is the Munster, or southern, form, which has been formalized by An Coimisiún le Rincí Gaelacha, which first met in 1930. An Coimisiún was formed from a directorate of the Gaelic League during the so-called Modern Revival. As a dance form, Irish dance has very precise rules about what one may and may not do and when, but within these rules there is almost infinite room for variety and innovation. Thus, Irish stepdancing is a vibrant and constantly evolving art form. Contents [ show]Roots of Irish dance Edit The dancing traditions of Ireland probably grew in tandem with traditions of Irish traditional music. The very first roots were in Pre-Christian Ireland, but Irish dance was also partially influenced by dance forms on the Continent, especially the quadrille dances."

Discipline is an important, but often neglected, part of the Christian life. Many broken friendships, and many harsh words come, as a result of not learning how to be temperate . Too many Christians take the attitude that they cannot control their temper, their thoughts, or their actions. This is simply not true. With God's Holy Spirit help we can practice temperance."

After all, 19th Century immigrants celebrated St. Patrick's Day — always March 17 on the Feast of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland — as a way to honor their heritage while embracing their new homeland. It often came with parades, food and a little bit of partying. It wasn't until later on that St. Patrick's Day was celebrated in Ireland. There it's a national holiday with schools and government buildings closed. Eamonn Mc Grath, a native Irishman and executive director of the Irish Cultural Center of New England, equates the day to the Fourth of July, where people spend time with family, attend a special Catholic mass, drink, eat and go to a parade. Mc Grath claims St. Patrick's Day is \"\"more raucously and widely\"\" celebrated outside of Ireland than inside, a phenomenon he said makes sense."

"text": "\"F. Scott Fitzgerald – A Brief Examination of Alcoholism in a Literary Icon January 31, 2012 5 Comments8 Votes“First you take a drink, then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes you.” – F. Scott Fitzgerald The 20 th century was a shining moment for American literature. Great literary figures had grown up in the States in the previous one hundred twenty-five years of the nation’s history, but it wasn’t until the 1900s that American authors truly began to challenge European authors (especially the British) on the international literary stage. One of the most prominent novelists of his age, F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote what some consider the definitive American novel, yet gnawing at the edge of his talent was an addiction that would eventually overshadow his greatest achievements. Francis Scott Fitzgerald had an uneventful birth, but his childhood was still troubled, mostly because he “grew up embarrassed by his mother and alternatively proud and ashamed of his father.” [ 1] This shame derived from the fact that his parents were not among the upper echelon of society. From an early age, Fitzgerald believed that he must find a way of inserting himself among the moneyed and influential classes, a preoccupation that filled much of his writing, though not without its fair share of critical consideration. While his first and largely autobiographical novel, This Side of Paradise, depicts a young college “egotist” attempting to fit in among the Ivy League, his third and most highly regarded novel, The Great Gatsby, paints a rather grim picture of the rich and their utter disregard for decency and human collateral. That is not to say that Fitzgerald rejected wealth and its excesses, only that it never quite lived up to his childhood aspirations. Fitzgerald flat out rejected his Irish ethnic heritage, almost certainly because it set him apart from those in high society."

But (a) we need to pay for that with a lot of rain and (b) Photoshop plays a minor role in this color-scheme marketing. We are also aware that a lot of people are interested in moving to Ireland because of the freedom that the European Union passport brings and fears over a looming Brexit, and not because they have romantic ideas about living in a castle (or in a town with a castle). Some quick tips when you meet one of the 35 million people in the U.

According to Alcohol Action Ireland (AAI), new research has shown that those born in Ireland in 1980 began drinking when they were around 16 years of age. However, those born just 10 years later began drinking around the age of 14. \"\" The fact that young people are beginning to drink at an increasingly younger age in Ireland is a worrying trend and one which needs to be tackled without delay,\"\" insisted AAI director, Fiona Ryan. The charity highlighted the research to coincide with the release of the Leaving Certificate results. Today, some 58,000 students will finally find out how they fared in June's examinations. Ms Ryan appealed to parents to talk to their children about their plans for this evening. \"\" Students deserve to go out, celebrate getting their results and mark such a major milestone in their lives.

S., St. Patrick's Day serves as a valid excuse to wear green and drink. But there's enough rich Irish culture to last the whole year round. We scoured Celtic folklore, online forums, the Bible, and even our favorite Irish pub in New York City to find some beautiful and just plain weird sayings used on the Emerald Isle. Some of the sayings are historic, out-of-use proverbs with original Irish Gaelic translations (today, as little as 30% of the population in the Republic of Ireland speak Irish). Others are examples of modern slang said in English, the shared official language. Here are 15 Irish expressions to break out on St. Paddy's Day:1. May the road rise up to meet you.

Who's nicest and friendliest?1 following 25 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: I would say the Scottish are much much much friendlier than the Irish. The Irish hospitality is a false myth. It's sad to see opinions of people who never really lived in Ireland talking about an Irish friendliness that doesn't exist. The Scottish are very helpful and they always make you feel at home. The Irish are more nationalists and sometimes they behave like racists. Personally I haven't met friendlier people in my life than the Scottish and never so rude and aggressive as the Irish (I don;t mean all the Irish are like that but if you check the history then you can understand) The Scottish are much friendlier and more tolerant towards the foreigners cause the UK has for years and years an influx of people with different national background. On the contrary the Irish vision is more \"\"Ireland for the Irish\"\". Don't be fooled by the \"\"alcohol myth\"\". All the Northern countries have this problem (lack of sunshine, rain, cold....)."

With so many different brands, varieties, terms, ways to drink and strong opinions in the mix any beginner whiskey drinker will benefit from a helpful starter guide. Below you’ll find everything you need to know to fool even the most devout whiskey enthusiast. Whiskey, Bourbon, Rye and Scotch Whiskey is the generic term given to distilled spirits made from grain mash. Bourbon, Rye and Scotch are all types of whiskey; as such they are all similar in taste and appearance. The difference between the types of whiskey depend on the types of grain used, the location in which it was distilled, the length of ageing and the type of casks used in the process. Each type of whiskey has its own rules and regulations governing the type: for example you cannot make scotch outside of Scotland. If you would like to know the specifics of each type of whiskey, head to my article Know your Whiskey: The Difference Between Bourbon, Scotch, Rye, Irish. Where to Get Started The first question a new whiskey drinker asks is which type of whiskey to try first. The best answer to this is to start with the whiskey with the best selection where you live."

Until 2015, the relevant legislation provided for the provision of water and wastewater services by local authorities in Ireland, with domestic usage funded indirectly through central taxation (including motor taxation), and non-domestic usage funded via local authority rates. From 2015, the legislation provided for the setup of a utility company, Irish Water, which would be responsible for providing water and wastewater services, and funded through direct billing. [ 5] [6] The transition between these models, and certain aspects of operation of the new company, caused controversy in its initial period of operation. [ 7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]In general in Ireland, water resources are abundant and 83% of drinking water comes from surface water. However, wastage levels were estimated at 800 million litres lost to leaks each day in 2015, [13] while usage levels were calculated at 80 litres per capita per day in 2016. [ 2] The quality of water from the public mains is usually quite high, with, for example, 98.9% of public water supplies complying with the standards for E. coli levels in 2004. [ 14] However, the microbiological quality of some rural private group water schemes led to Ireland being cited in 2002 by the European Court of Justice for failing to abide by EU drinking water guidelines. [ 15]For wastewater treatment, 94% of wastewater collected in urban area sewers receives at least secondary treatment, [3] and 1.6 billion litres of water are treated each day nationally; 540 million litres of this is in the wider Dublin area. [ citation needed] The low density and spatial distribution of population has resulted in an extensive network of water distribution compared to many other countries – with over 25,000 km of pipes in total.

"text": "\"People participate in a St. Patrick's Day parade. Chris Mc Grath/Getty Images St. Patrick’s Day, celebrated every year on March 17, has become synonymous with shamrocks, the color green, pinching, (if perchance you’ve forgotten to wear the color green), and plenty of guilt-free alcohol imbibing. But the holiday, commemorated in today’s green and shamrock-inflected Google Doodle, has a long, rich religious history. The tradition goes all the way back to St. Patrick, who is credited with bringing Catholicism to Ireland. For centuries, his memory was honored with a feast and a trip to church. How, then, did a holiday on the official Catholic calendar become associated with all the material trappings of modernity? Why do we know the holiday more for its alcohol and parades, its green beer and Shamrock Shakes, than for its religious meaning? Who was St. Patrick, anyway? St. Patrick’s story begins as a young man in the fifth century, when at age 16 he was kidnapped from his British home by Irish raiders and taken as a slave to Gaelic Ireland. It’s a grim beginning to a story that would shape Ireland’s national holiday."

Touchpads are a common feature of laptop computers, and are also used as a substitute for a mouse where desk space is scarce.

Frankly, a laptop touchpad, which is essentially your laptop’s built-in mouse, takes a little getting used to. Laptop mouses come in two types: the touchpad and the pointing stick. The touchpad, by far the most common type, is a flat area, located beneath your keyboard. A pointing stick is a small button located among your computer’s keys. When you move your finger across the touchpad surface or place your finger on the pointing stick and move the stick slightly in any direction, a corresponding mouse pointer moves around your computer screen. With a touchpad, which is what you’re likely to have on your laptop, you perform clicking actions to open or select things on screen by using the right and left buttons on the bottom of the touchpad. The left button on the touchpad is used for left-click actions and the right button for right-click actions. Left-clicking opens or selects items, while right-clicking opens a shortcut menu from which you can choose commands to perform actions. Here are the main functions of a touchpad and how to control them: Clicking: When people say “click,” they mean “press and release the left mouse button.”"

If a lot hangs out, snip it off with scissors. Add Tip Ask Question Comment Download Step 2: Steps 6-86) if you want you can tape the metal rod to the pen shaft to make it flush, but don't cover the metal, your hand will have to make contact with it for this to work. 7) dip the sponge tipped pen into water. 8) commence drawing on your touchpad: =======NOTE:======== your hand has to be touching the metal rod, and the metal rod tip has to be touching the wet sponge."

I'm using a laptop, and normally I could just drag my finger down the right side of it, and it would scroll, but it's stopped letting me do that. How can I get that ability back? Update: I tried going to Synaptics from the Control panel, but that did nothing. Yes, it's there, but the mouse still won't scroll. Follow 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: I would say that it is a setting in your control panel if you have used any other mice or install another mouse drivers it may have affected you touch pad. I would suggest looking at the synaptic setting and see if there is an option to set the touch pad to default settings. If all else fails you can try to reinstall the synaptic drivers from the laptop support site. I hope this helps.

Speaking to Express Sports UK during a press tour that is part of the Laureus World Sports Awards in Shanghai, China, Spitz allegedly said:“I was sent an email posted by Omega that said he had lost the race. If they were the official time keeper why wasn’t that available moments after the race? I don’t believe he won the race but he’s still the greatest swimmer in the world, with or without that medal. ”Spitz allegedly continued to make statements questioning whether he could have had a greater career than Phelps under different circumstances. “Statistically he’s the greatest Olympian of all time. He was in twice as many Olympics as I was – he was in four and I was in two. He has 18 gold medals and I have nine. He has two silvers, I have one. He has two bronzes, I have one."

"text": "High Creatinine, Low Kidney Function And Low GFR2013-05-14 11:00Though high creatinine levels do not definitely mean there is kidney problems. If high creatinine persists or it has the trend to become even higher when other possible causes are ruled out such as dehydration, urinary tract infections, high protein and meat intake, creatine supplement or strenuous activities, it is very possible that high creatinine is due to impaired kidney functions and declined GFR levels. This is because creatinine concentration in the blood is mainly up to kidney functions and glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Creatinine is a metabolic waste and the kidney is the major organ to remove creatinine from the blood. When there is any problem with the kidneys, for example renal impairments caused by many years high blood pressure or diabetes, the impaired kidneys can not function well to filter creatinine and other wastes and toxins from the blood. Therefore high creatinine levels will occur. For those that have already developed kidney problem, serum creatinine test is a good indicator of renal functions. However it is not very sensitive for detecting early renal damages, therefore nephrologists recommend checking the patient’s GFR besides creatinine levels. GFR can better reflect the severity of renal damages and residual kidney functions and it can reflect early renal damages. GFR is often used by the doctors to calculate the patient’s kidney functions and low GFR is often accompanied by high creatinine and low renal functions."

It is made from creatine, which your muscles require for energy. Women tend to have lower creatinine levels than men because they have less muscle tissue. Creatinine levels normally do not vary from day to day because your muscle mass generally stays the same. Aging and malnourished people and vegetarians may have lower than normal creatinine levels.

"text": "\"for Veterans and the Public Understanding Lab Tests: Entire Lesson Laboratory tests: Overview Once you've been diagnosed with hepatitis C, your VA doctor probably will order a number of tests to learn about your overall health, to decide whether drug therapy is appropriate, and to learn about your body's internal functioning (including how well your liver is working). Some tests will be done very soon after you've been diagnosed with hepatitis C, while other tests will continue to be done on a regular basis. These tests will monitor your health and help you and your doctor decide when treatment is appropriate (or, if you've already begun treatment, whether it's working). In the following sections, you can learn about the tests, why your doctor may have ordered them, and what the results mean. Note: Normal values for laboratory tests can vary from one lab to another. Check with your doctor on the normal range for your lab tests. Tests of the liver If you have hepatitis C, most likely, your doctor will check blood tests of your liver. There's a handful of liver tests and it is helpful to know what each of them means. Here, we explain common liver blood tests and how to understand your results: Liver panel Liver enzymes Liver function tests (LFT)ALTASTBilirubin Albumin Prothrombin time Alkaline phosphatase INRPlatelets Total protein Liver panel A \"\"liver panel\"\" usually refers to several lab tests performed as a group.

Unfortunately, as is the case with so many \"\"diabetic\"\" complications, this organ destruction also appears to begin long before many people are given a diabetes diagnosis. The landmark UKPDS study found that one out of eight people diagnosed with diabetes already were leaking small amounts of protein into their urine. This symptom, called \"\"microalbuminuria.\"\" is an early sign that kidneys have been damaged. Though there is no total agreement as to why this occurs, some factors that promote kidney damage are: 1. High blood pressure. When blood pressure is high, large protein molecules, including those that are glycosylated (covered with sticky excess sugar molecules) are pushed through the pores of the kidney's filtration units, damaging them. 2. High blood sugar."

The doctors can calculate it from the results of your blood creatinine test, your age, body size and gender. Now, let’s have a look at the overview of e GFR. As I said at the beginning, glomerular filtration rate is a test used to check how well the kidneys are working, specifically, it estimates how much blood passes through the glomerlui each minute. Normal GFR is approximately 100ml/min but you will often see it reported as more than 90 or more than 60. Actually, if you GFR is at 90 or above, your kidney function is normal. If your GFR is between 60-90, even though there is a moderated kidney function, kidneys still can do their normal job due to its strong compensatory abilities. However, when a GFR below 60 for three months, it may indicate chronic kidney disease that kidney function is so poor that patients will suffer from various symptoms or even complications. According to its level, Chronic Kidney Disease is divided into five stages, and you can see the different kidney damage degrees. Then, what causes to be lower GFR?"

"text": "Kidney Failure in Dogs: Signs & Causes May 11, 2017You probably don’t realize it, but your dog’s kidneys are much like your own kidneys. Healthy kidneys are used to dissolve, filter, and expel toxins in the body every time your dog pees. Just like your body produces toxins all day long, your dog’s body does too. When a dog has healthy kidneys, they produce a urine that is highly concentrated. This means that copious amounts of toxins are being flushed and filtered through your dog’s kidneys, using (by comparison) a small amount of water. However, with a deceased kidney that is no longer functioning properly, increasing amounts of water are required to excrete the same amount of toxins. When your dog seems to become overly thirsty without satiation, it can be a sign that their kidneys are damaged. Your dog’s excessive thirst is because your dog is unable to keep up with drinking the amount of water needed to flush out the toxins. As a result, toxin levels elevate within the bloodstream. Unfortunately, when your dog’s kidneys begin to fail, it means they are unable to remove waste at all."

Serum creatinine level is normally kept in the range 0.5-1.3mg/d L and in clinic, many conditions can cause elevated creatinine level like improper diet, medicine, chronic kidney failure, creatine supplements and so on. With different causes, patients need to take different measures and they also receive different effects in lowering creatinine level. For elevated creatinine level associated with chronic kidney failure, it is hard to lower creatinine level into the normal range again simply through diet. What does elevated creatinine level mean for people with chronic kidney failure? Kidney is the organ that is responsible for discharging excess creatinine in blood. Each of kidney contain about one million of nephron. Clinical experiments show when a group of nephrons are injured, the rest nephron will work more hardly to excrete excessive creatinine. Therefore, we usually feel nothing different in initial stage of kidney disease. Also, this is the reason why early stage kidney problem is hard to be found."

Background on BUNWhen protein is metabolized, it goes through a few different processes. First it mixes with hydrochloric acid in the stomach and enzymes from the pancreas. This aids the breakdown of large proteins into smaller proteins and amino acids during the process of protein digestion. At this point a few things can happen. The first thing that occurs, is that the body absorbs the digested protein/aminos. I specifically wrote “protein/aminos” out of a new recognition that the body can absorb larger protein molecules as well as single amino acids.

By Beth Asaff Crafter Source The Feast of the Seven Fishes is not celebrated across all of Italy, but this Christmas Eve celebration has carried over into popular culture and Italian households around the United States. While the exact beginnings of the tradition are lost to history, there are many theories as to why Italians eats seven fish on Christmas Eve. Where the Feast of the Seven Fishes Is Celebrated While this tradition is seen strongly in many English speaking countries where people of Italian descent now live as an Italian tradition, it is actually not seen in the majority of Italy. In fact, the Feast of the Seven Fishes is usually seen in southern Italy and Sicily, and varies from area to area. While the most common variation of the tradition is to eat seven fish, some households in southern Italy actually eat nine, ten or 12 fish instead. Eating Fish on Christmas Eve The eating of fish on Christmas Eve is a Catholic tradition. Catholics were expected to abstain from eating meat or products derived from animals such as butter or dairy on Fridays and holy days. Christmas Eve being one of the designated days on which to abstain, most good Catholics would eat fish, typically cooked in oil. In southern Italy and Sicily, fish is extremely abundant, which may explain why so much of it was added to Christmas Eve dinner."

A construction worker in the 1960s and ’70s, he was regularly exposed to asbestos. From what I understand, there is no cure for this illness, and he died within a few months of diagnosis. My friend loved his father very much and is grieving his loss. However, he described his father’s death, and the time leading up to it, as “beautiful.” I have never been with someone as they die, and have a hard time understanding this. What is a “beautiful” death? How is beauty possible when someone is dying?– Frank M. A: Frank, thank you for this question."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search\"\"Santa\"\" redirects here. For other uses, see Santa (disambiguation). This article is about the legendary character. For other uses, see Santa Claus (disambiguation).1881 illustration by Thomas Nast who, along with Clement Clarke Moore's poem A Visit from St. Nicholas, helped to create the modern image of Santa Claus The modern portrayal of Santa Claus frequently depicts him listening to the Christmas wishes of different children. Santa Claus, also known as Saint Nicholas, Kris Kringle, Father Christmas, or simply Santa, is a legendary figure originating in Western Christian culture who is said to bring gifts to the homes of well-behaved (\"\"good\"\" or \"\"nice\"\") children on Christmas Eve (24 December) and the early morning hours of Christmas Day (25 December). [ 1] The modern Santa Claus grew out of traditions surrounding the historical Saint Nicholas (a fourth-century Greek bishop and gift-giver of Myra ), the British figure of Father Christmas and the Dutch figure of Sinterklaas (himself also based on Saint Nicholas). Some maintain Santa Claus also absorbed elements of the Germanic god Wodan, who was associated with the pagan midwinter event of Yule and led the Wild Hunt, a ghostly procession through the sky. Santa Claus is generally depicted as a portly, joyous, white- bearded man—sometimes with spectacles —wearing a red coat with white fur collar and cuffs, white-fur-cuffed red trousers, a red hat with white fur and black leather belt and boots and who carries a bag full of gifts for children. This image became popular in the United States and Canada in the 19th century due to the significant influence of the 1823 poem \"\" A Visit from St. Nicholas \"\" and of caricaturist and political cartoonist Thomas Nast. [ 2] [3] [4] This image has been maintained and reinforced through song, radio, television, children's books, films, and advertising."

A Nativity scene and a Christmas tree, two popular decorations displayed by Christians during Christmastide Christmastide (also Christmas Time or the Christmas season) is a season of the liturgical year in most Christian churches. [ 1] In some Christian denominations, Christmastide is identical to Twelvetide, a similar concept. For most Christian denominations, such as the United Methodist Church and the Roman Catholic Church, Christmastide begins on Christmas Eve at sunset or First Vespers, [2] which is liturgically the beginning of Christmas Day. [ 3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Most of Christmas Eve, understood as 24 December, is thus not part of Christmastide, but of Advent, the season in the Church Year that precedes Christmastide; in many liturgical calendars, Christmastide is followed by the closely related season of Epiphanytide. [ 8]There are several celebrations within Christmastide, including Christmas Day (25 December), St. Stephen's Day (26 December), Childermas (28 December), the Feast of the Holy Family on New Year's Eve (31 December), the Feast of the Circumcision of Christ, the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God and New Year's Day (1 January), as well as Epiphany Eve or Twelfth Night (the evening of 5 January). [ 9]Customs of the Christmas season include carol singing, [10] gift giving, [11] seeing Nativity plays, [12] attending church services, [13] and eating special food, such as Christmas cake. [ 14] Traditional examples of Christmas greetings include the Western Christian phrase \"\"Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!\"\" and the Eastern Christian greeting \"\"Christ is born! \"\", to which others respond, \"\"Glorify Him!\"\" ["

"text": "Share or Print This Info Since eating pierogi is such a tradition during the Christmas holidays, below you can find a few ways to serve pierogi at any dinner party or event, along with lots of Polish Christmas recipes. Or, you may decide to do a traditional Polish Christmas dinner with the full Wigilia Feast. Here, no Polish Christmas recipe will contain meat--it is a a way to remember that one must always give something up in the goal of gaining. According to religious tradition, the Poles even try to avoid using animal fats in the cooking for their Christmas Eve meal. Yes, that means no butter... About The Polish Christmas Eve Meal: The Wigilia Feast The Wigilia meal is made from foods that come from the four corners of the earth: forest, sea, field, and orchard. This is why you will see such a rich variety of recipes based on root vegetables, dried mushrooms from the forest, fruit from the orchard, fish from the sea, and pierogi from flour from the field. To start the Polish Christmas Eve meal, friends, family, and neighbors will gather around the table for the unique Polish ceremony--the breaking of bread--as a symbol of love, friendship, and forgiveness. They typically use a white, transparent communion wafer called oplatek. Centuries ago, feudal-estate masters would forget the feudal order by inviting the servants to join them in this emotional dinner celebration -- uniting friends, enemies, the sick, poor, and lonely. To honor this Polish Christmas tradition, make sure you don't forget to add an extra place on the table for the lonely traveler who may knock on the door or for loved ones who are far away but may want to join their families in spirit."

Italian-American food has been shaped throughout history by various waves of immigrants and their descendants, called Italian Americans. As immigrants from the different regions of Italy settled throughout the various regions of the United States, many brought with them a distinct regional Italian culinary tradition. Many of these foods and recipes developed into new favorites for the townspeople and later for Americans nationwide. Prominent American chefs and cooks working in the Italian-American tradition include Giada De Laurentiis, Mario Batali, Michael Chiarello, Frank Pellegrino, Rocco Di Spirito, Tom Colicchio, and Lidia Bastianich.

Most of these immigrants arrived in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and during this time, many Italians coming from Naples and Sicily moved to large American cities, such as New York City, Philadelphia, Chicago, St. Louis, Boston, Los Angeles, and San Francisco; the immigrant cuisine is thus largely derived from Neapolitan and Sicilian cuisine, and is particularly associated with these locations. Italian-Americans often identify foods with their regional heritage. Southern Italian staples include dry pasta, tomato sauce, and olive oil, whereas Northern Italian staples include foods such as risotto, white sauce and polenta. [ 1]Over time, through an increased appreciation of Italian cuisine in the United States, as well as increased imports into the United States from Italy, there has been a push towards producing more authentic dishes, which use techniques and ingredients that are more native to Italy."

It is a little smaller than New Mexico, and has lowlands, a narrow coastal area with rocky cliffs, and a southern region rich with minerals and fertile farmland. Poland struggles with air and water pollution. In the late 1990s, Poland ranked twelfth in the world in industrial carbon dioxide emissions. Water pollution in the Baltic Sea off the coast of Poland is ten times higher than in the ocean at large. Environmental protection was a high priority for the government at the beginning of the twenty-first century.2 HISTORY AND FOODThe Roman Catholic rituals of feasting and fasting, introduced to Poland around A. D. 900, have had a strong influence on Polish food traditions. During the fasts no meat is eaten, so many meatless and fish dishes have become a part of Polish cookery. Located between two powerful neighbors, Germany and Russia, Poland was forced to form many political alliances throughout its history. These influenced its food customs. For example, the marriage of King Zygmunt to the Italian princess Bona Sforza in the sixteenth century brought Italian food customs to Poland, including the introduction of salad."

This is Britain: where Christmas dinner is all mapped out, but Christmas Eve is a culinary free-for-all. I have relatives for whom 24 December isn't complete without steak and chips. Others insist on Indian takeaway, while for years my friends and I celebrated at a Tex-Mex restaurant (because nothing says Christmas like a chimichanga ). In many European countries the Eve is commemorated with a gut-busting feast. Yet in Britain, the 24th lacks a universal tradition, leaving us free to create our own rituals. There are recurring themes, but is there a reason why we don't we have a national Christmas Eve dish on a par with Christmas dinner?"

Although this meal is reserved for the closest family, it is customary to set an extra plate and seat for an unexpected guest or even a vagrant. Most of the dishes served are cooked specifically on this special day – and only once a year!Christmas Eve practices are guided by custom rather than by faith, and so Christian (predominantly Catholic) conservative families and modern or aethist families alike celebrate with traditional cuisine. Meat is not allowed. What’s on the plate is based on traditional and seasonal products available in winter. Christmas Eve traditions, including culinary ones, are the combination of ancient pagan customs with religious ones introduced by the Catholic Church, local traditions and various folk cultures. The supper, which traditionally includes twelve dishes and desserts, may last for a good couple of hours. It is followed by an exchange of gifts. Sometimes the Christmas Eve menus reflect its multicultural aspects, as Jews, Poles, Germans, Lithuanians and other minorities lived together in the past. Christmas Eve dinner starts when the first star appears in the sky."

Bill Petro January 5, 2018Audio , Christian , Christmas , History , Holidays HISTORY OF EPIPHANYEpiphany occurs in the Christian calendar on January 6. It signifies the event of the Magi, or Wise Men, visiting the baby Jesus, and is known in some Latin cultures as Three Kings Day. In the Eastern (Orthodox and Oriental) churches, it is known as the Feast of Theophany (God Manifest), commemorating Jesus’ baptism with the attendant appearance of the Holy Spirit as a dove and the voice of God the Father. This story is recounted in all four Gospels of the New Testament. This date is also tied to Jesus’ miracle of changing the water to wine at the Wedding at Cana in the Gospel of John, Chapter 2. Christmas vs. Advent So, the 12 Days of Christmas don’t end at Christmas, Advent does. Instead, the 12 days start with Christmas and end with Epiphany. These 12 days are sometimes called Christmastide. The subsequent “season” of Epiphany lasts from January 6 through the day before Lent."

It is also a very wet month with an average of 66 mm of rainfall that falls during the month. The average high temperature still reaches 19°C (about 66°F) but can dip as low as a rather chilly 8°C (around 46°F). Sunshine Hours The amount of average daily sunshine drops significantly come December, to about seven hours a day. Your chance of rain on any given day is about 22 percent and the chance of clouds is 15 percent, still giving you an excellent chance of a good day to enjoy the outdoors. Rain The average number of rainfall days is six, so it would be best to bring a light jacket and an umbrella with the higher chance of showers. You still have a good chance of sunny weather, however, with a 68 percent chance of a sunny day. Weather in Los Angeles during the winter months is fairly unpredictable and can switch quite rapidly, so it would definitely be best to plan ahead and check the local weather before heading out. And, don't forget that the temperatures on the coasts are usually 10 degrees colder than the temperatures inland, so plan accordingly when going between the two. Average Sea Temperature The average sea temperature is only 16°C (around 61°F), so it is not recommended that you try and go swimming unless prepared with the proper cold water suits."

Feeding these guys isn't tricky as they're willing to devour just about anything. A varied, healthy diet is pivotal to seeing their bright color displays. In Nature Native to North and Central America, the Jack Dempsey cichlid is an aggressive fish that prefers the muddy waters of canals, ditches and swamps of the Papaloapan and Hondurian Ulua rivers. In these murky waters, this fish attacks its prey, hidden by the plants and low visibility. Natural Diet With the diversity of species found in its native waters, the Jack Dempsey has an almost endless all-you-can-eat buffet at its disposal. They'll eat almost anything smaller than them, including small frogs, fish, insects, worms and even the occasional crustacean. They're also known to devour the plants found in their natural habitat. As such, your Jack Dempsey will appreciate similar foods in their captive diet."

His father is of Austrian Jewish and Polish Jewish descent, and his mother was of Irish ancestry (she converted to Judaism). It's not surprising that Ben has followed in his family's footsteps: his parents made no real effort to keep their son away from the Hollywood lifestyle and he grew up among the stars, wondering just why his parents were so popular. At a young age, he and his sister Amy Stiller would perform plays at home, wearing Amy's tights to perform Shakespeare. Ben also picked up an interest in being on the other side of the camera and, at age 10, began shooting films on his Super 8 camera. The plots were always simple: someone would pick on the shy, awkward Stiller...and then he would always get his revenge. This desire for revenge on the popular, good-looking people may have motivated his teen-angst opus Reality Bites (1994) later in his career. He both directed and performed in the film, which costarred Winona Ryder and Ethan Hawke. Before he even got his start in Hollywood, Ben put in several consistently solid years in the theater. After dropping out of UCLA, he performed in the Tony Award winner, \"\"The House of Blue Leaves\"\"."

"text": "\"Butterfly Anatomy: Wings and Scales Prev NEXTButterfly anatomy Lee Dempsey, 2008 How Stuff Works A butterfly starts its life as a caterpillar, which hatches from an egg, eats voraciously and eventually sheds its skin to reveal a chrysalis. The chrysalis is a protective shell in which the caterpillar becomes a butterfly. By the time the butterfly emerges, or ecloses, it doesn't look much like it did when it formed the chrysalis. Its body has the same basic parts -- a head, a thorax and an abdomen -- but most of the similarities end there. Along with its proboscis, a long, straw-like tube used for drinking, many of a butterfly's sensory organs are on its head. These include: Compound eyes, which are good at detecting color and nearby movement Moveable, segmented antennae, which have organs for detecting smells at the tips and structures for sensing the butterfly's direction and position at the base Labial palps at the base of the mouth parts, which help the butterfly decide what is and isn't food Butterfly proboscis anatomy Lee Dempsey, 2008 How Stuff Works Not all of a butterfly's sensory organs are located on its head, though. At the end of each of its six legs, all of which attach to its thorax, are taste organs that the butterfly uses to find food. When a butterfly's leg touches a good food source, a reflex causes its proboscis to uncoil. This lets the butterfly retrieve and swallow the food, which is digested in organs in the butterfly's abdomen. A butterfly's reproductive organs are located in its abdomen as well."

Historically, in boxing and now in MMA, the biggest draws have always been the heavyweights. Why? Well that’s the million-dollar question isn’t it? Larger fighters, generally speaking, aren’t usually as swift or technical as the smaller ones. Which is not to say the heavyweight fights aren’t a showcase of skill and technique, because they still are, just not at the sometimes-dizzying pace the lighter weight classes are home to. However, there’s one aspect of the fight game that is emblematic of the heavyweight division; the knockout. The bigger fighters walk around with knockout power that smaller ones could only dream of possessing. There’s just more power behind each hit, and a correctly placed punch, snuck in behind a blitz of jabs, can mean lights out. Nowhere is the heavyweight division more glorified than in boxing."

Originating in the waters of the Amazon, the Oscar fish is another extremely popular fish. Their popularity stems from their personality, which has been compared to that of a puppy. Many keepers experience begging around meal times or the seemingly playful greetings they receive from their fish when they get home. There are a few color varieties of the Oscar Fish including albino, olive-green, brown and dark gray. They can get quite large, usually 12-14 inches and should be kept in a 75 gallon or larger aquarium. The Oscar is also known for being one of the more messy tropical fish to keep. Try to get the best filtration system possible for them and be prepared to perform frequent water changes. They are known to rearrange their environment from time to time and to bash in to filter uptake tubes and heaters. If you are wanting to keep live plants in an aquarium you may not want to get an Oscar because they love to dig up plants."

The scientific name of the Oscar is Astronotus ocellatus and refers to the eyespot markings on the back of the body. There are many different types of Oscars that vary in size and coloration. The Oscar is an Amazon native and can easily grow from 12-16″ in a home aquarium and live up to 15 years. Husbandry Oscars are easy to raise and feed. It is usually best to start small with one to four one-inch babies. The biggest consideration for the number of fish to house is tank size and filtration system. These fish thrive in most fresh water aquarium conditions, but like slightly warmer (76-80F) and slightly acidic (p H 6.5-7.5) water best. They grow very rapidly, will eat whenever food is offered, and produce more than the average amount of fish waste. A good filtration system, regular water changes and a large enough tank will help accommodate their size as they grow."

Articles such as this make us proud of being able to harness the power of the internet to preserve boxing's wonderful history and, as importantly, to meet truly nice people! Mike De Lisa]Even within the long-ago memories or recollections of boxing historians and fans of famous prizefighters, the name Jess Willard has almost fallen victim to near insignificance. Jess Willard, the one-time heavyweight boxing champion of the world, and who alone earned the title, \"\"The Great White Hope\"\", has faded from memory, compared to his predecessor Jack Johnson, and his rival, Jack Dempsey. One wonders if historians have all the facts, considering that a little thing like Jess Willard's incorrect date of birth curiously never seems to get corrected. Jess Willard was born December 29, 1881 (not 1883) in St. Clere, Kansas. He was the youngest of four brothers born to Myron and Margaret Willard. Willard's father died in October of 1881, at age 37 from wounds received in the Civil War. Jess' mother remarried in 1891 to a man named Elisha Stalker, who had children from a previous marriage. As Jess, his older brothers and stop brothers grew up on Mr. Stalker's ranch, the chores of the boys was as normal and customary as most of farm people."

Hares are different from rabbits because their babies, called leverets, are born with all their fur, and their eyes open. Jackrabbits live in the extreme environments of the desert and chaparral, where temperatures are hot during the day and cold at night, and there isn't a lot of rain. Jackrabbits have huge ears. It can regulate its body heat by increasing or decreasing the blood flow through its ears. This helps the jackrabbit absorb heat or cool off. They prefer to live inopen areas where they can see predators coming. With its long, rangy legs it can run in bursts of up to 36 mph. Their incredible speed helps them outrun many of their enemies. The soles of a jackrabbit's feet are covered with fur."

However, that's going by the scientific meaning of the word 'rodent'. In everyday speech, I've heard the term applied to a even wider range of animals, including such things as shrews, but, most commonly, rabbits. Yet rabbits, along with hares and pikas, are not rodents. On close examination, it doesn't take much to demonstrate that, despite their size and shape, shrews aren't rodents, but rabbits... well, rabbits are pretty rodent-like."

Golden eagles are not usually found in Indiana. However, each winter we get reports from a few places in the state where they are spotted. One of those places is Lake Monroe, where we get from 5 to 10 reported sightings each year. Golden eagles are considered \"\"western birds\"\" with their range extending from Alaska and northern Canada in the north down into Mexico in the south, and the west coast east to the Plains states as well as throughout the eastern portion of Canada. It is assumed that winter dispersal of the eastern Canada birds are what we find on occasion in Indiana. Like bald eagles, golden eagles typically take about five years to reach full adulthood, but pair bonds may form long before then, just as they may in bald eagles. Most aerial displays from golden eagles are performed by the male, but, on occasion, the female joins in. The display is basically one of undulating flight where the bird gradually gains altitude. Once high enough, the bird will hold its wings closer to the body, but not completely closed, spiral and tumble down for several seconds before opening the wings to rise once again and repeat the display."

About 6% of Americans have been exposed to the roundworms that cause this disease, with highest rates of infection in the southeastern United States and Puerto Rico. Up to 20% of Dutch people, up to 39% of Czechs, 40% of Brazilians, and 90% of Nepalese carry antibodies formed after exposure to the parasites. Two alarming cases were reported in Canada in early 2012. A bouncing baby boy in Hamilton, Ontario, developed seizures at the age of five months. By the age of fourteen months he was legally blind and suffered profound neurological issues. His parents told doctors that their yard was infested with raccoons, but that he was not allowed to play outside. When public officials determined that raccoon feces found in the yard was infected with roundworm eggs, they concluded that the raccoon parasite had been brought into the house on the fur of the dog. An elderly woman in Vancouver died of complications of a condition her doctors had diagnosed as Alzheimer’s disease. Autopsy found that her brain had several visible roundworm larvae."

To celebrate these little legs I decided to write up a quick, foolproof recipe for grilling drumsticks. They are also one of the easiest and most rewarding pieces of chicken to grill, because it’s hard to mess them up. Chicken breasts are great, but they have a very small window of juiciness, and will dry up quicker than a jackrabbit in a thunderstorm. Whole chickens are also fun to grill, but are best when brined, which can take some time and planning. Thighs are another good option, but let’s be honest here – they’re just not as fun as drumsticks.some chicken drumsticks salt and pepper to taste other seasonings as desired (paprika, cumin, taco seasoning, bbq rub, curry powder, Borsari seasoning)Pat dry the chicken with paper towels. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper, and/or some other seasonings. The picture above has Borsari seasoning on it, which is one of my favorite mild-tasting seasoning rubs.

While almost all owls hunt and eat live animals there are some which typically feed on carrion. They also eat invertebrates. There are around seventy five species of Otus out of which forty are specialized in eating insects.

Leporids range in mass from 300 grams (1.4 lbs) in pygmy rabbits to 5 kilograms (11 lbs) in arctic hares. Adult head and body length ranges from 250 to 700 mm. Unlike most mammals, females are usually larger than males. Color patterns vary between species and across seasons, and range from black to reddish brown to white. Leporids are widely distributed and have adapted to a broad range of habitat types. They can be found throughout the world with very few exceptions. Habitat type affects pelage color as well as litter size. Some leporids are extremely social, living in large communal dens, while others are solitary, coming together in groups or pairs for mating purposes only.

Though they rarely do as much damage as deer, woodchucks or raccoons, that's little comfort when they've munched your peas and eaten the buds off your lilies. If you suspect there's a rabbit causing problems in your garden, but you haven't actually seen one, the telltale signs of damage include: delicately nibbled leaves and stems, primarily on young or newly emerging plants; chewed tree bark near ground level, especially on saplings, shrubs and fruit trees; and small round rabbit droppings. For nature-friendly gardeners, the ideal solution to wildlife problems is peaceful coexistence. The challenge with rabbits is to simply keep them from eating the things you don't want them to eat. This requires more brains than brawn. So as with any counterintelligence effort, let's start by getting to know the other guy. Think Like a Rabbit One thing rabbits must spend a lot of time thinking about is making more bunnies. In a single breeding season, one rabbit couple can produce 18 baby bunnies! This is another good reason why when it comes to rabbit problems, a strategy of coexistence is a wise one."

"text": "Desert Ecosystem Deserts host plants and animals living in what strikes many humans as oppressive environments. Solar energy that green plants convert into food fuels life here. Although in most ecosystems plants compete for sunlight, here most plants are adapted to minimize the effects of too much solar energy. Annuals compress their life cycles and go dormant as conditions grow unfavorable. Sudden carpets of wildflowers mark their waking from dormancy as seeds, like time travelers, quickly germinate, flower, and renew their species before before seasonal moisture dries up once again. Patient perennials ply an alternate strategy: Joshua trees flourish in moist periods, then bide their time in long dry periods. Many animals get their energy by eating plants, but desert plants give up the fruit of their production very reluctantly. Sharp spines and chemical-laden leaves discourage plant-eaters. The kangaroo rat avoids these obstacles by eating seeds that, while safe to eat, can be hard to find. Many are small and look like grains of sand."

However, that's going by the scientific meaning of the word 'rodent'. In everyday speech, I've heard the term applied to a even wider range of animals, including such things as shrews, but, most commonly, rabbits. Yet rabbits, along with hares and pikas, are not rodents. On close examination, it doesn't take much to demonstrate that, despite their size and shape, shrews aren't rodents, but rabbits... well, rabbits are pretty rodent-like."

"text": "\"\"\"No man is an island.” This saying is also true for organisms in an ecosystem. No organism exists in isolation. Individual organisms live together in an ecosystem and depend on one another. In fact, they have many different types of interactions with each other, and many of these interactions are critical for their survival. So what do these interactions look like in an ecosystem? One category of interactions describes the different ways organisms obtain their food and energy. Some organisms can make their own food, and other organisms have to get their food by eating other organisms. An organism that must obtain their nutrients by eating (consuming) other organisms is called a consumer, or a heterotroph. While there are a lot of fancy words related to the sciences, one of the great things is that many of them are based on Latin or Greek roots."

They are hares rather than rabbits, bearing fully furred young with open eyes and not constructing burrows for homes. They eat plants, including cacti, each jackrabbit eating 1/2 to 1 pound of plant material daily. They can have four litters of two to eight young per year. Jackrabbits Jackrabbits are nocturnal, feeding at night and retreating to shallow depressions they dig for themselves, called forms, in the shelter of shrubs or other vegetation. They occupy a wide variety of habitats, from arid desert scrub, sagebrush desert, prairies, northern plains and even alpine-tundra areas. They are able to survive by eating a wide variety of plant materials, including grasses, sedges, different kinds of leafy annual and perennial plants, shrubs and succulents like cacti and yucca.

Leslie Gordon Goffe travelled to Jamaica to find out more about the dreams and challenges of Africans in the birthplace of Rastafarianism, Marcus Garvey and Bob Marley. Jamaicans have talked about going back, one day, to Africa since the days of Marcus Garvey. But it is Africans, from East, West, and from South Africa, who have come, instead, to Jamaica. There are Ethiopians here, like Yodit Getachew-Hylton, an aeronautical engineer from Addis Ababa, married to a Jamaican government minister. There are South Africans, like the writer Peter Abrahams, who has lived in the hills above the Jamaican capital Kingston for 58 years. There are Ghanaians, like Kodjoe “Benjie” Asamoah, owner of a gourmet catering business. But most of all, there are Nigerians – almost 5,000 of them calling Jamaica home. Nigerians have found work here as computer scientists, engineers, and physicians. Several Nigerians own pharmacies, like Benson’s in Old Harbour, in St Catherine parish, outside Kingston."

As in other western societies, there is a bustling mixture of religious and secular activities. Houses are decorated and many people put up Christmas trees. Those who don't will sometimes indulge by stringing a few pepper lights somewhere in their yards. In many communities there is a Tree Lighting Ceremony in which a Christmas tree erected in a central place is officially lit. Businesses and civic organisations host treats for children, the elderly and the needy. All through December there are parties, dances and street jams, which in most major towns culminate on Christmas Eve. On this night, called 'Grand Market' night, Jamaicans of all ages gather in the town centres to socialise, eat, drink, dance and have fun."

The Spaniards were the ones who brought slavery to Jamaica, then they were over thrown by the English. Jamaica later gain emancipation on August 1, 1838. Black slaves became the dominant cultural force as they suffered and resisted the harsh conditions of forced labour. After the abolition of slavery, Chinese and Indian migrants were transported to the island as indentured workers, bringing with them ideas from the Far East.

What other benefits does bissy have, as well as other bush teas? Bissy (cola nut) is the fruit of the cola tree, which is native to the tropical rainforests of Africa. It has typically been kept in many Jamaican homes where it is used as an antidote against poison, usually food poisoning, and allergies. My own experience with it has been as a stimulant; for example, it kept me awake many nights during my studies for my first degree at the University of The West Indies. This effect is due to the high caffeine content, which can vary from point six per cent to three per cent of the nut. However, the use of bissy is now in vogue because of the outbreak of chikungunya in Jamaica. Many persons are now attesting to the curative benefits of bissy on the signs and symptoms of chikungunya. However, I've not seen any scientific study to show this. However, bissy does show some properties, which might be helpful in this regard."

My mom has luck securing superior pumpkin, “real pumpkin”, at Carribean grocery stores and actually tells me with a mixture of pride and relief when she’s scored “Jamaican pumpkin”. I would have titled this recipe “Jamaican Pumpkin Soup” but Steph, my best friend whose recipe this is, usually uses kabocha squash which is often easier to source. Butternut squash and sweet potatoes round out the flavour of Steph’s version. Fresh thyme and scotch bonnet peppers are what make this soup distinct from other squash soups. Scotch bonnets are often mislabeled in the store for their close cousins, habenaros. I find scotch bonnets impart better flavour, even used whole in this soup, but use habaneros if they are easier to come by. I have and the result is still great. Whichever you end up using, respect the power of these chilies."

"text": "\"Barbecue Word of Mouth blog How to cook perfect jerk chicken How do you make your jerk chicken – or do you prefer pork, fish, or goat? And which other Caribbean dishes deserve to be better known in this country? Felicity Cloake Wed 11 Jul 2012 19.10 EDT19.10 EDT274 148Felicity's perfect jerk chicken. Photograph: Felicity Cloake I f you're familiar with any aspect of Caribbean cuisine, then it will almost certainly be jerk. Let's face it: spicy, crisply barbecued chicken or pork are an easier sell for most of us than hard food or stew peas. Native to Jamaica, the tradition began with the indigenous Taíno people who would cook their meat over fires made from the aromatic wood of the island's allspice trees – still the only way, devotees claim, to get that really authentic flavour (no one seems to import it the UK, so I'll have to take their word for it). Jerk's distinctive seasoning – hot peppers, sweet allspice berries, thyme and ginger – however, is credited to the African slaves brought to the island by its Spanish and British colonisers, who also introduced the cooking pits which were traditionally used for jerk until the advent of the modern oil drum. ( The name, apparently, is the Spanish version of an Andean dialect word for dried meat, ch'arki – presumably because the original jerk would have been smoked to preserve it. ) Today, you'll find jerk huts all over Jamaica – indeed, you'll probably smell them before you leave the airport – but, if you're not hopping back to the island any time soon, it's easy to get a taste of the Caribbean in your very own garden. Pork and goat are prime candidates for jerking, but I've chosen chicken because if ever a dish needed livening up, it's grilled chicken."

It combines the conquering lion of Judah, symbol of the Ethiopian monarchy, with green, gold, and red. Rastafari, sometimes termed Rastafarianism, is an Abrahamic religion. Classified as both a new religious movement and social movement, it developed in Jamaica during the 1930s. There is no centralised authority of the movement and much heterogeneity exists among practitioners, who are known as Rastafari, Rastafarians, or Rastas. Rastafari refer to their beliefs, which are based on a specific interpretation of the Bible, as \"\"Rastalogy\"\". Central is a monotheistic belief in a single God—referred to as Jah —who partially resides within each individual. The former emperor of Ethiopia, Haile Selassie, is given central importance. Many Rastas regard him as an incarnation of Jah on Earth and as the Second Coming of Christ. Others regard him as a human prophet who fully recognised the inner divinity within every individual."

Many children wear uniforms to school and these are also very similar to something you would find in the U. S. Traditional The traditional dress of Japan is a kimono. The kimono comes in many styles, but are similar to robes and many have long, bell-shaped sleeves. Children's kimonos have extra folds around the shoulders and waist so they can be let out as they grow, according to Hiroshima's City Guide. Today the kimono is usually only worn by adults and children on special occasions like weddings and celebration ceremonies.

"text": "Edgar Kennedy In Cartoons The Jerry Report – Update #2FUNNY ANIMALS AND MORESeptember 1, 2013 posted by More Giant Robots!Don’t think that all of the giant robot TV cartoons were created by Go Nagai. He may have invented them, but others quickly jumped onto the, er, giant robots. The giant robots were all basically the same, but by the late 1970s and early ‘80s their individual plots had developed some originality. Here are some of the others. Gowappa 5 Godam. 36 episodes, April 4, 1976 to December 29, 1976. Gowappa was the name of the team of 5 kids, and Godam was their giant robot. This was the first giant robot program with a girl leader rather than a boy. The Gowappas, led by Yoko Misaki, go on an outing to a strange island where they find the abandoned laboratory of Doctor Hoarai, who had been obsessed that the surface of Earth was about to be invaded by underground rock people. He was ridiculed, so he built the Godam giant robot and other weapons in secrecy to fight them."

The Hotel On The Corner Of Bitter And Sweet A NOVEL By Jamie Ford (cc) image by nuonsolarteam on Flickr The concept of this button is a symbol for a question that is the fundamental one throughout the story. What It Means To Be American. I AM AMERICAN Throughout the story, Jamie Ford makes his opinion on the concept of being American clear. Strategically choosing a time period in history in which a certain racial background was blatantly discriminated against, set the stage for the novel to portray his feelings. During the 1940s, the Japanese-Americans were marked as the enemies of the nation and were all rounded up and forced to move to internment camps. Ford uses Henry and Keiko, and each of their families, to help us see the challenges that exist when different cultures come together. It is accustomed to us today to meet people of different cultures in America. This \"\"melting pot\"\" of cultures and the diversity of people causes dispute and cultural conflicts."

I hold the tuning dial to the left, and the digital reading settles at 90.3 FM, WZBC, the University's FCC-approved radio station, which broadcasts some of the strangest sounds and insights heard in metropolitan Boston. I turn the volume dial to the right, and an ethereal pulse begins to fill the inside of my car. I do not know how to label this kind of music, and I listen closely, searching for a way to describe it. None comes... Twenty minutes later I park my car in the office lot, dash over to Mc Elroy Commons, and jostle through swarms of students toward a long hallway housing wholesome student activities: the college newspaper, the yearbook, the Environmental Action Center. At the end of the hall is Room 107-its door painted matte black-home of tunes the station's literature describes as \"\"acid-jazz, hip-hop, and other rump-shaking musiques.\"\" The office inside is windowless: basement apartment circa 1975. Fake wood paneling is plastered with cannabis icons, Unabomber bumper stickers, concert posters, graffiti. Wires dangle from the ceiling. Cassettes are crammed in cardboard boxes jammed under desks."

It was released worldwide on November 18, 2016, by Atlantic Records. The follow-up to Mars's successful second album, Unorthodox Jukebox (2012), it explores genres similar to those of its predecessor, such as soul and funk, while Mars and his team focused on capturing the R&B sound that was very popular in the 1990's, described by the singer as the reason he fell in love with music in the first place. [ 1] Recording sessions for the album took place between Fall 2015 and September 2016 at Glenwood Place Studios in Burbank, California. [ 2] The production of the album was handled by newly formed production trio Shampoo Press & Curl, consisting of Mars, Brody Brown and Philip Lawrence. [ 3]It is considered by some critics to be influenced by 1980s and early 1990s pop nostalgia. [ 4] It is also the first album by Mars to enter the R&B and hip hop charts on Billboard, staying atop the R&B albums chart for 21 weeks, so far. [ 5] Five singles have been released so far, the title track, \"\" That's What I Like \"\", \"\" Versace on the Floor \"\", \"\" Chunky \"\", which had a limited release, and \"\" Finesse \"\". \"\" That's What I Like\"\" became Mars's seventh number one on the Billboard Hot 100."

"text": "African-American Raps in Japanese, Calls Out Famous Enka Singer Jero Steven Apr 24, 2011Tweet While many Japanese rappers freely mix English in to their lyrics, it’s probably much less common for American rappers to do the same with Japanese. Enter Kokujin Tensai (lit: Black Genius), who is trying to break ground by making Japanese his language of choice when busting mad, phat or otherwise sick rhymes. From his alias, you might be given the impression that Genius is all wind and no game, but the moment you hear his raps you’ll know his shit is real. Genius titles his brand of rap “Nichibei (Japanese-American) Hip Hop” and has made his music available for listening on My Space. Though most of the songs have Japanese titles, much of the rapping is done in English, and each song is overflowing with creative lyrics that exude an appreciation of Japanese culture: Akete Uchikomitaize (lit: I want to open you up and drive it in)Yeah, you know what it is, you know what it’s gon’ be, hotter than wasabi, I’m talking ‘bout your body…Pour it up, drink it up, I just bought the bar. How many girls can I fit in my car? I need at least two, and they gotta be fit, I like to keep a pair, call ‘em chopsticks. Other songs include Soushoku Danshi (lit: Herbivore Young Men. Refers to guys that are not as aggressive or competitive as a stereotypical male, often used derogatorily as in ‘spineless males’ or ‘guys with no balls’) Kimagure de Furi-sutaiuru (Freestyle on a whim) and Nichibei Hippu Hoppu (Japanese-American Hip Hop). Of particular interest is the song Umiyuki Freestyle, which uses the backing track of Umiyuki by African-American enka singer, Jero."

"text": "\"Hannah Elliott, Forbes Staff I cover the fun stuff: Fashion, Cars and Culture In the 2005 film Batman Begins, the freewheeling Bruce Wayne pulls up to a nightclub in a low-slung Lamborghini Murciélago Roadster. The car, whose name is Spanish for \"\"bat,\"\" was presumably purchased to celebrate the scion's return to Gotham. Sticker price? About $350,000. But there's a big difference between a truly cool car and one that's just expensive: careful customization. It's what separates a generic Lamborghini from the Batmobile, Bruce Wayne from Batman. The same holds true for rap's richest. Real car guys like T-Pain, 50 Cent and Lil Wayne know how to make their rides stand out in a way that's garish, sometimes, but also tasteful to the well-trained eye. \"\" There's a fine line between cool and corny--super fine,\"\" says Funkmaster Flex, a Bronx-born deejay, rapper and producer who runs a custom car club called Team Baurtwell. He also hosts a radio show on New York's Hot 97. \"\""

This article is about rapping as a technique or activity. For more information on the music genre, see Hip hop music. Rapper Lauryn Hill performing in 2014Rapping (or rhyming, spitting, [1] emceeing, [2] MCing [2] [3]) is a musical form of vocal delivery that incorporates \"\"rhyme, rhythmic speech, and street vernacular\"\", [4] which is performed or chanted in a variety of ways, usually over a backbeat or musical accompaniment. [ 4] The components of rap include \"\"content\"\" (what is being said), \"\"flow\"\" ( rhythm, rhyme ), and \"\"delivery\"\" ( cadence, tone). [ 5] Rap differs from spoken-word poetry in that rap is usually performed in time to an instrumental track. [ 6] Rap is often associated with, and is a primary ingredient of hip-hop music, but the origins of the phenomenon predate hip-hop culture. The earliest precursor to the modern rap is the West African griot tradition, in which \"\"oral historians\"\", [7] or \"\"praise-singers\"\", [7] would disseminate oral traditions and genealogies, or use their formidable rhetorical techniques for gossip or to \"\"praise or critique individuals.\"\" [ 7] Griot traditions connect to rap along a lineage of Black verbal reverence that goes back to ancient Egyptian practices, through James Brown interacting with the crowd and the band between songs, to Muhammad Ali 's quick-witted verbal taunts and the palpitating poems of the Last Poets.

Also try dub step, if you want to challenge yourself!Feel the beat. You want to be engulfed in the music, so turn it up high enough that you feel every whomp of the kick drum and every thump of the bass.2 Wear comfortable clothes. You want your clothes to be loose and comfortable when you're practicing. When you hit the clubs, you may be wearing tighter and less comfortable clothing, but it's good to practice with as much comfort as possible. Wear shoes that do not grip the floor too hard. You want to be able to slip and spin easily. If your soles catch on the ground during a fast move, you could fall down, or even twist an ankle.3 Relax. You don't want to look stiff when you're dancing hip hop."

Cool J was born James Todd Smith on January 14, 1968, in Bay Shore, Long Island, New York, the son of Ondrea Griffith and James Louis Smith, Jr. Todd, as he was called, did not have a very happy childhood. At the age of four, he saw his mother and grandfather shot by his own father. After they recovered from their injuries, his mother began to date a young physical therapist she met while in the hospital. The therapist treated Ondrea kindly, but for years he abused Todd physically and verbally, which resulted in Todd becoming a bully himself. It was during this period that he started wearing hats all the time (one of L. L. Cool J's trademarks is the fact that people never see him without a hat on--until recently). Fortunately, Ondrea finally discovered what this man was doing to her son and left him. As he grew older, Todd found a way to escape the effects of his abuse and his bullying attitude: hip-hop music. He fell in love with it at the age of nine, and by 11 he was writing lyrics and making his own songs with some DJ equipment his grandfather gave him. At 15, he and one of his best friends came up with his present stage name, L. L. Cool J, which means \"\"Ladies Love Cool James.\"\" In 1984, when L. L. was 16, he met Rick Rubin, a student at NYU, who gave him his big break in music."

This seems to be Joseline’s defense in a lawsuit filed against her by former co-star Althea Eaton, who Joseline assaulted at last season’s reunion. Joseline’s co-stars and producers aren’t happy with her assessment of what goes on behind-the-scenes and deny the show is staged or fake! Benzino has spoken out saying producers instigate drama and encouraged the fighting, a move that likely got he and Althea fired from the show because Executive Producer Mona Scott-Young adamantly denies any producer responsibility for the brawl. According to a source producers have accused Joseline of lying under oath. They swear the show is “absolutely real,” but Joseline is trying to avoid taking responsibility for her actions!CKICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR THE REST!The producers cite Joseline’s 4-day suspension as a result of the brawl as proof they absolutely did not encourage her to fight Althea. Additional proof, according to production, is that Joseline faces assault charges in NYC, filed by NYPD, who were called to the scene. In her lawsuit Althea claimed Joseline was high on crack-cocaine and attacked her. Benzino has gone further to accuse producers of knowing the attack was imminent and not doing anything to stop it, including having tons of security on him, but none on Althea or Joseline. Also speaking out against Joseline’s testimony are her co-stars."

He had a song called \"\"Bang,\"\" which had more than 400,000 views on You Tube, and he had a mixtape, and a dedicated following amongst Chicago high school students. But he was not a rapper who was known outside of the local high schools. His Facebook profile indicated that he worked as a sales rep for \"\"Selling Dope.\"\" He lived with his grandmother. But last year, on Dec. 4, Chief Keef's rap career changed. That afternoon, gunshots were fired from a Blue Pontiac Grand Prix in the Washington Park neighborhood of Chicago, just South of Hyde Park, and when police arrived at the scene, a suspect allegedly pointed a gun at them. The officers fired a shot back. Two young men, including Chief Keef, were apprehended; a third escaped. Rumors swirled that Keef had been killed in a shootout with police; in fact, he'd been arrested and charged with aggravated UUW, or unlawful use of a weapon."

This really surprised me, but when I compared the fitbit burn to my heart rate monitor burn they are often the same for jumping rope. I think the impact counts a little in the fitbit intensity, but I would expect the hrm to estimate a higher burn due to the constant arm movements. Jumping jacks tend to count as 3 steps or so for me so it does give it a pretty fast pace. I did a workout dvd called \"\"Brooklyn Bridge Bootcamp\"\" and was surprised that both my Polar hrm and fitbit gave the exact same calorie estimate for this workout. This workout alternates between cardio and bodyweight strength (or resistance band intensified bodyweight). During the cardio portion you can run or do jumping jacks and other plyos. I tend to jump rope, run in place or do jumping jacks during the cardio portions."

Mules ears are usually somewhat smaller than a donkeys, longer but the same shape as the horse parents. The mule's conformation will be a combination of traits from both parents.

If you are fit and fine then 100jumping jacks along with burpees, lunges, abs twist, planks are enough for you. But you want to loose weight then jumping jacks are just for warmup. BTW it depends on your bodt weight and how continuously you are doing without break.a person who weighs 150 pounds will burn about 153 calories during a 30-minute moderate-intensity bout of jumping jacks. A person who weighs 200-pounds will burn approximately 204 calories during a 30-minute moderate-intensity jumping jacks workout. Kicking up the Intensity If you increase the intensity of your jumping jacks workout, you’ll burn more calories. For example, a person weighing 150 pounds will burn about 274 calories in a 30-minute bout of jumping jacks when they’re done at a vigorous intensity. This means they’ll burn about 9.1 calories per minute. A 200-pound person will burn about 366 calories in 30 minutes when jumping at a vigorous intensity. This equates to 12.2 calories per minute."

"text": "\"Tom Cruise Highest Rated: 96% Risky Business (1983)Lowest Rated: 5% Cocktail (1988)Birthday: Jul 3, 1962Birthplace: Syracuse, New York An actor whose name became synonymous with all-American entertainment, Tom Cruise spent the 1980s as one of Hollywood's brightest-shining golden boys. Born on July 3, 1962 in Syracuse, NY, Cruise was high-school wrestler until he was sidelined by a knee injury. Soon taking up acting, he found that the activity served a dual purpose: performing satiated his need for attention, while the memorization aspect of acting helped him come to grips with his dyslexia. Moving to New York in 1980, Cruise's first big hit was Risky Business in 1982, in which he entered movie-trivia infamy with the scene wherein he celebrates his parents' absence by dancing around the living room in his underwear. The Hollywood press corps began touting Cruise as one of the \"\"Brat Pack,\"\" a group of twenty-something actors who seemed on the verge of taking over the movie industry in the early '80s. Top Gun 1985 established Cruise as an action star, but again he refused to be pigeonholed, and followed it up with a solid characterization of a fledgling pool shark in the Martin Scorsese film The Color of Money in 1986, for which co-star Paul Newman earned an Academy Award. In 1988, he played the brother of an autistic savant played by Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man, a dramatic turn for sure, though Cruise had not yet totally convinced critics he was more than a pretty face. His chance came in 1989, when he played a paraplegic Vietnam vet in Born on the Fourth of July. Though his bankability faltered a bit with the expensive disappointment Far and Away in 1990 (though it did give him a chance to co-star with his-then wife Nicole Kidman), 1992's A Few Good Men brought him back into the game. By 1994, the star was undercutting his own leading man image with the role of the slick, dastardly vampire Lestat in the long-delayed film adaptation of the Anne Rice novel Interview with the Vampire."

"text": "\"This article is about the physical exercise. For other uses, see Jumping jack (disambiguation). Schoolchildren in the US performing jumping jacks A jumping jack (Canada & US) or star jump (UK and other Commonwealth nations), also called side-straddle hop in the US military, is a physical jumping exercise performed by jumping to a position with the legs spread wide and the hands touching overhead, sometimes in a clap, and then returning to a position with the feet together and the arms at the sides. The name origin for the jumping jack exercise has sometimes erroneously been identified as World War I U. S. General John J. \"\"Black Jack\"\" Pershing, [1] who is said to have developed the exercise, but in fact the name comes from the jumping jack children's toy, which makes similar arm swing and leg splay motions when the strings are tugged. \"\" Star jump\"\" refers to the person's appearance with legs and arms spread. Variations [ edit]More intensive versions of this jump include bending down (over) and touching the floor in between each jump. Power Jacks Power Jacks are similar to jumping jacks, except a person squats lower and jumps as high as possible during each repetition. [ 2]A similar jump exercise is called half-jacks, which were created to prevent rotator cuff injuries, which have been linked to the repetitive movements of the exercise. They are like regular jumping jacks but the arms go halfway above the head instead of all the way above it. The arms also hit the sides to help tighten the jump."

This exercise is more of a muscle toner than a muscle builder, and while you swing your arms during this exercise, it doesn't typically work your arm muscles. Jumping Jacks Many people are familiar with jumping jacks from gym class in elementary school, but this exercise isn't child's play. It's ideal because it works many of your body's major muscle groups and provides a low-maintenance aerobic workout. Begin by standing with your feet together and your arms hanging at your sides. Jump and swing your arms up so that your hands meet above your head, while simultaneously kicking your feet out to each side. Time your movement so that when your hands meet, your feet land on the ground, and then jump back to the starting position and repeat this movement.

He was born John Christopher Depp II in Owensboro, Kentucky, on June 9, 1963, to Betty Sue (Wells), who worked as a waitress, and John Christopher Depp, a civil engineer. Depp was raised in Florida. He dropped out of school when he was 15, and fronted a series of music-garage bands, including one named 'The Kids'. However, it was when he married Lori Anne Allison ( Lori A. Depp) that he took up the job of being a ballpoint-pen salesman to support himself and his wife. A visit to Los Angeles, California, with his wife, however, happened to be a blessing in disguise, when he met up with actor Nicolas Cage, who advised him to turn to acting, which culminated in Depp's film debut in the low-budget horror film, A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), where he played a teenager who falls prey to dream-stalking demon Freddy Krueger. In 1987 he shot to stardom when he replaced Jeff Yagher in the role of undercover cop Tommy Hanson in the popular TV series 21 Jump Street (1987). In 1990, after numerous roles in teen-oriented films, his first of a handful of great collaborations with director Tim Burton came about when Depp played the title role in Edward Scissorhands (1990). Following the film's success, Depp carved a niche for himself as a serious, somewhat dark, idiosyncratic performer, consistently selecting roles that surprised critics and audiences alike. He continued to gain critical acclaim and increasing popularity by appearing in many features before re-joining with Burton in the lead role of Ed Wood (1994)."

And juniper berries are not actually berries, but female seed cone (read pinecones). THIS IS WHY IT TASTES LIKE CHRISTMAS TREES, which (in our opinion) is a very good thing.2 Gin is basically just vodka. Kat Chadwick via Getty Images Gin is pretty much just flavored vodka — but the best kind possible. While juniper berry is the most popular and predominant flavor, other aromatics that give gin its flavor include: cumin seeds, coriander seeds, angelica root, orris root, citrus peels, cardamom pods, cassia bark, grains of paradise and cubeb berries.3The ‘80s were brutal in many ways, but at least they brought back gin.

This pungent spice is popular in European cuisine and also gives gin its distinguishing flavor. Juniper berries are actually the tiny pinecones of the juniper shrub, which is found across Europe and North America. The pinecones are so tightly clenched that they look like small, blue-purple berries. Juniper berries are tart and sharp, with a resinous, piney flavor and hints of citrus.

It’s impressive and we’re more than just a little smitten with what they have produced…St. George Spiritswas originally established by Jörg Rupfin 1982 as an ‘Eau de Vie’ artisan distillery using a 65 gallon Holstein pot still after arriving in America from his own home the Black Forest, Germany. Inspired by the Bay Area’s raw materials and fledgling foodie culture and combined with his family history, it was only natural to start distilling. It has taken them up to 30 years to grow from a one man band to the 65,000 square foot Naval hangar that stands today, that includes a diverse team of distillers, a tasting room, a laboratory and a huge line-up of pot stills. In 2010 Rupf passed the company over to colleague and distiller Lance Winters, a former U. S. Navy engineer and brewer, who had worked with him since 1996 and is now the sole proprietor of St. George Spirits. The distillery is based in what was historically Alameda Naval Air Station. Lance had big ambitions for the company and expanded their product range very quickly from just eau de vie to single malt whisky, absinthe and gin. Talking to Gin Foundry during Junipalooza 2014, he added context to the heritage of the distillery; “We’re about the furthest thing from an overnight success that anyone could possibly be. Going on 33 years of operation, St. George Spirits is one of the oldest craft distilleries in the United States."

The Old Testament includes several references to the juniper tree including Psalms 120:4. This verse references burning a person with a false, deceitful tongue with the coals (perhaps burning branches/logs?) of the broom tree, an ancient name for a variety of juniper shrub that grows in Palestine. This passage can be looked at in several ways, one being that the juniper was used to cleanse, purify and eliminate that which is false and negative. Native Americans use juniper berries for medicinal applications and burn the berries to cleanse and purify the air. I dabble in making natural forms of incense and include juniper berries and Juniper Berry Essential Oil in several of my personal recipes.

This was during the 1650's. He had long recognized that the oils of juniper berries had diuretic values which helped flush out the urinary system, keeping the bladder and kidneys healthy. His objective was to develop a medicinal tonic by mixing grain spirits with juniper-berry extract. He called it geniévre (French for juniper). The Dutch renamed it genever, later it became known as geneva and was eventually anglicized by the English to gin."

Juniper berries themselves are high in flavonoid and polyphenol antioxidants that have strong free radical scavenging abilities.

In fact, for years French hospital wards burned juniper and rosemary to help protect patients against lingering bacteria and infections. Juniper Berry Essential Oil Benefits Today, juniper berry essential oil (called Juniperi aetheroleum in most research studies) is most commonly used in natural remedies for sore throat and respiratory infections, fatigue, muscle aches and arthritis. It can also help soothe skin flair-ups, boost the immune system, help with insomnia and aid with digestion.

Gin is fascinating and the botanicals in each bottle give you a new experience with every sip. It is also essential in the bar and a liquor that offers bartenders infinite mixing possibilities.

According to one belief, it is the abbreviation of the word “Geneva” which has been derived from the French word “genievre” meaning “juniper.” Another origin has also been derived from the word which means juniper; the Dutch word” jenever.” This indicates that the basic ingredient of Gin, juniper, inspired the name Gin and has remained so.

This definitive London Dry Gin is one of the few London Dry Gins actually distilled in London. Producing over 2.5 million cases of gin a year, the Beefeater distillery is surprisingly staffed by only five people. At the helm of this operation is Master Distiller Desmond Payne, one of the most experienced distillers in the world with over 46 years of distilling experience. With Beefeater London Dry Gin, Desmond continues producing a spirit which has seen very little change since its creation in 1820 by James Burrough, a chemist who created the gin for its medicinal properties. While the predominate flavor note in Beefeater is juniper, the gin contains nine different botanicals: juniper berries, orange peel, lemon peel, orris root, liquorice, angelica root, angelica seed, coriander seed, and almond. These botanicals are soaked in a pot still with neutral grain spirit for twenty four hours before they are distilled. It’s this steeping process that gives Beefeater its signature flavors and complexity. Beefeater Botanicals As the predominate flavor in the gin, juniper berries are so important to the creation of Beefeater that a two year supply – forty tons of the berries – is stored at the distillery. Every year Desmond and company test over 200 different samples of juniper berries and over the course of three months painstakingly select which ones will be combined to make the signature Beefeater flavor profile Two of the stills at Beefeater All 2.5 million cases of Beefeater are produced using just four stills, each of which are constantly in one phase of the steeping or distilling process."

They will be okay with chick starter, but duck starter is just better. They're ducklings after all. Lol. You can also feed them finely chopped fruits and veggies, they should enjoy those. They sometimes also enjoy small insects and worms. Glen Coco · 8 years ago0 0 Comment Baby Duck Feed Source (s):https://shorte.im/a9Aryspiller · 1 year ago0 0 Comment They should have special feed for the ducklings, but chick starter is fine , they just need a pan of water to wash the feed down , ducks normally eat while swimming, if you watch a mom duck with her ducklings at the lake they are in the water almost immediately, And that is how they learn , they need the water so they do not choke to death. Baby chickens don't need the water right there where they eat. Ducks like to beak the mud , while they are eating to."

Both ducks and chickens can be raised as a source of meat, also. A third scenario is raising your chickens and ducks for egg production first and then using the livestock for meat as the egg production wanes. There are breeds of chickens and ducks that are primarily meat birds. In chickens these would include the Cornish Cross and the Freedom Rangers. Dual purpose breeds that lay fairly large amounts of eggs and also put on weight for meat production purpose would include the New Hampshire Red, Delaware and White Rock to name a few. Raising meat birds is a fairly quick turnaround in time, anywhere from eight to twelve weeks. Duck breeds that are good for meat production include the Rouen and the Pekin."

If you find a wild duck's nest on your property and don't see the mother on the eggs, don't necessarily worry. Ducks lay an egg every day or two until they have a full clutch (usually 8 to 15); only then will the mother start to sit on them. It takes the eggs 28 days to hatch from when she starts sitting all the time. When they hatch, she will soon lead them to a nearby body of water. The father takes no part in caring for the eggs or young. Source (s):internet readingskohlrahn23 · 1 decade ago2 0 Comment I have a mother duck who laid eggs 6 of them.

I never heard of marbles in the water but then again I don't give them water in bowls big enough for the ducklings to drown in. Since you don't know if the eggs are going to hatch or not,go to the Feed Store and see if you can buy a pound of so of Duck Starter Food and have it on hand If the eggs do hatch. Duck eggs hatch 28 days from the day they start the incubation period. Keep the temp 98.0 to 100.0 degrees and they will need some moisture but DO NOT get the shell wet as it will seal the pores of the shell and it will kill the embryo.

"text": "For How Long Do Baby Ducks Need Heat Lamps? By Sarah Moore Raising ducklings can be a fun adventure, but if you aren’t careful, you can lose the delicate babies to cold. Therefore it’s necessary to provide ducklings with heat for the proper amount of time, usually between two and six weeks, depending on the weather and how quickly they develop feathers. Though heat lamps are usually necessary for no more than a few weeks, it is important to reduce the amount of heat you provide gradually and pay attention to the weather. Preparing Pens Baby ducks must be separated from other or older birds during their brood period, or the time they require the heat that simulates a mother’s body. Place them in a draft-free area on top of at least 4 inches of litter-like pine shavings or straw. Hang a heat lamp above their pen about 18 inches above the bedding. One heat lamp can provide enough warmth for about 35 ducklings, so if you have more than that, you’ll probably need to set up a second heat source. Set the lamp to 90 degrees. Adjusting Heat After you get the lamp set up, watch the ducks to see how they react to their new environment."

In many birds with these types of babies the babies also \"\"imprint\"\" on the first animal they see, which is usually the mother. In this way they are led to the correct foods, are taught to hide when danger threatens, and can be defended if a predator attacks.

"text": "'Imprinting' Causes Baby Ducklings To Believe That A Man Is Their Mother By Meera Dolasia on May 15, 2014CCSS NAS-3Grades 3-8Word Search Favorite Photo Credit: By Radoslaw Ziomber CC BY-SA 3.0 via Wikimedia Commons A man named Rick finally got to experience what Mother's Day feels like this year, thanks to 13 little ducklings that think that he is their mother and follow him around all day. The unusual saga began when the mother of the young chicks disappeared soon after laying the eggs. To save them, Rick, who will not reveal his last name or location, decided to place them in an incubator. Hence, when the chicks hatched, the first large moving object they saw was Rick and immediately concluded that he was their 'mother'. While this may seem odd, it is quite common among animals. Known as imprinting, it is a natural biological phenomenon that occurs in newly-born birds and mammals, allowing them to form a bond with their mother as well as providing them with information about their own identity. For birds like ducks, geese and turkeys that start walking as soon as they hatch, the imprint occurs instantly, which is what happened in this case. Photo Credit: Memozee.com What's amazing is that researchers have discovered that young birds imprint themselves to the first moving thing they set their eyes on - even if they are inanimate objects. During their study, they found young chicks attaching themselves to gumboots, balls, and even an electric train. The downside of imprinting is that young animals have a hard time detaching themselves from their adopted 'mother'."

Potassium vs. Zinc Supplements Iron deficiency leads to a number of disorders, including anemia, cardiac issues, cold sores, fertility problems and restless leg syndrome. People with iron-poor diets, including vegetarians, risk iron deficiency, as do patients who experience excessive blood loss, This category includes women with heavy periods, people who have recently had surgery, and people afflicted with ulcers and other serious digestive issues. Iron supplements help correct your body's deficiency in the mineral. Iron supplements may improve appetite for people with anemia, while in other patients it can indirectly cause an increase or decrease in the desire to eat. Anemia and Appetite The most dramatic way in which iron pills may affect the appetite is by improving the condition known as iron deficiency anemia. As the condition's name indicates, iron deficiency anemia affects people who do not take in or retain enough of the crucial mineral. One symptom of this type of anemia is poor appetite. Lack of desire to eat may indicate anemia, especially in babies and children, Mayo Clinic.com notes."

The country is approximately twice the size of Nevada. The southeast part of Kenya borders the Indian Ocean. The land regions are varied and range from year-round snow in the Kenya and Kilimanjaro Mountains to warm, tropical beaches. Some of the regions are desert, but most land is rolling grasslands and forests. Kenya's climate is as varied as the land areas. Typically, there are two rainy seasons. The highest amount of rainfall occurs in April and the least rainfall occurs in January. The evenings in the Central Highlands can be quite chilly and the coastal areas are usually hot and humid.2 HISTORY AND FOODWhen the Portuguese arrived in 1496 on the coast of Kenya, they introduced foods from newly discovered Brazil. Maize, bananas, pineapple, chilies, peppers, sweet potatoes, and cassava were brought in and became local staples."

Literacy is high in Kenya: 85 percent of people over 15 can read and write. However, as language is the most important denominator of ethnic groups in Kenya (there are between 40 and 70, depending on how you count), there are much more indigenous languages than just Swahili. English and Swahili English of course originates from the British, who colonized the country from the end of the 19th century until Kenya’s independence in 1963. Swahili is a Bantu language (the Bantu peoples encompass several tribes, such as the Kikuyu and Meru) with a strong Arab and Persian influence, as traders of these countries have frequented East Africa for ages. Swahili is actually relatively easy to learn - the grammar is quite simple and the pronunciation isn't confusing. This map shows which languages are spoken where in Kenya Apart from being the main language in two countries – Kenya and Tanzania – Swahili has become a lingua franca (general working language) for the whole of East Africa. Over 50 million people speak Swahili, although only 5 to 10 million of them are native speakers. The others have it as a second language, reason why it’s loosing some of it’s richness."

Hair smeared red with ochre (a pigment), they either carry spears or stand on one foot tending cattle. These depictions oversimplify Maasai life during the twentieth century. Today, Maasai cattle herders may also be growing maize (corn) or wheat, rearing Guinea fowl, raising ostriches, or may be hired by ecologists to take pictures of the countryside.

Those \"\"best endurance athletes\"\" are clearly the Kenyan runners. Attempting to verify this fact for you is probably unnecessary, but it can at least be noted that one study found that athletes from just one collection of Kenyans, the Kalenjin tribe, had won approximately 40 percent of all major international middle- and long-distance running competitions in the 10-year period from 1987 to 1997. 1In addition, approximately half of all of the male athletes in the world who have ever run the 10K in less than 27 minutes hail from Kenya. When they're allowed to enter freely, Kenyan athletes dominate road races around the world. And yet, until now the eating habits of the top-level Kenyan runners haven't been examined in a scientific way, even though the Kenyans' nutritional practices must assuredly represent a key reason for their running success. The person who argues that \"\"If only the Kenyans would eat differently, they could run much faster,\"\" would be on flimsy ground. The Kenyans are doing things right when they sit down at the dinner table, or they wouldn't dominate international competitions. But what is it exactly that they're doing? Are they Zone dieters, followers of the Perricone Promise, adherents of the Atkins Diet, or do they focus on the South Beach eating plan?"

With the spread of plagues in the early 1900s, the town was burnt down and had to be rebuilt. Having a railroad system in the system helped it to have drastic growth, becoming the second largest city in Kenya behind Mombasa.

To help you plan your own adventure, we’ve put our heads together and agreed on our five favourite places to visit in Kenya. Take a look to see what this unique destination has to offer.5. Mount Kenya Located in the heart of central Kenya, this giant edifice rises to 5,199m - an impressive 17,057 feet - above sea level. It’s by far the tallest mountain in Kenya and the second-highest in Africa, after Mount Kilimanjaro. One of Kenya’s most iconic and popular attractions, this ancient volcano has been eroded by ice for thousands of years to produce incredible chasms, jagged peaks and waterfalls across its surface. First scaled in 1899, it definitely presents a worthy challenge to all avid climbers. There are several different routes ranging from a relatively easy hike to a challenging climb – accompanied by trained and capable guides. The north side is best tackled in August and September, whilst the south face is easily navigable around January or February. But Mount Kenya is not just about the climb and the incredible views, or the varied geological formations, glaciers and diverse vegetation; the Mount Kenya National Park is home to an amazing diversity of wildlife and includes some unusual and rare species - look out for: Water Buck Tree Hyrax Monkeys and Baboons Elephant Rhino Buffalo and many more!If you're looking for more information on one of Kenya’s most vibrant attractions, discover Mt.

Though some clothes and fabrics can be called traditional for Kenya. Let's have a look. Here are some typically Kenyan pieces of clothing. Among traditional Kenyan pieces of clothing is \"\"kitenge\"\". It is a cotton fabric heavily embroidered and colored by the method called tie-and-dye (when the fabric is clothed into a tight bundle, and then dyed with various colors). Kitenge is very colorful and bright, so it is popular not only in Kenya but in many other African countries."

British imperialism has also received its expected share of criticism, for inventing the now-indigenous Kenyan practice of divide and rule (see Caroline Elkins, \"\" What's Tearing Kenya Apart?

How, then, can a focus on such factors illuminate Kenya's continuing turmoil? A colonial formation In the 19th century the area that became \"\" Kenya \"\" was stateless.

Photographs by Pieter Hugo At 26 Sveva Gallmann has been invited to speak at conferences all over the world by the United Nations and by prominent spiritual leaders such as the Dalai Lama. She has narrowly missed being eaten in bed by lions; had her clothes trampled by elephants while swimming naked in a river; had a hill named after her; taken part in a two-week circumcision ceremony of more than 20,000 Kenyan boys; and been initiated into an African tribe as one of their own. Not many people have had an upbringing like that. Sveva's life has been filled with drama from the day she was conceived – as is documented by her mother's book (and subsequent Hollywood film starring Kim Basinger), I Dreamed of Africa. Sveva's Italian parents, Kuki and Paolo, fell in love with Africa in the 1970s when out on safari. The couple bought what many consider to be one of the finest cattle ranches in Africa, the 100,000-acre Ol ari Nyiro, in Kenya's north-western Laikipia region, and moved there with Kuki's son from a previous marriage, Emanuele, then eight.

The tribes of Kenya are known for their unique history, culture, values, lifestyle, language, religion, food and more. Most visitors to Kenya can easily recall the Maasai tribe and their close kin, the Samburu people. Kenyan tourism has made the Maasai and Samburu tribes the most famous because of their long preserved culture. By resolutely clinging to their traditions, the Maasai and Samburu have remained two of the few cohesive and culturally authentic ethnic tribes of Kenya. They are thus recognized world-wide as a symbol of Kenyan culture and are favorites among tourists. Kenya's Ethnic Groups The indigenous tribes of Kenya fall into three ethnic groups, namely: the Bantus, the Cushites and the Nilotes. The Bantus The Bantu ethnic group is the largest ethnic community in Kenya. They make up about 70 percent of the country's population, but they occupy less than 30 percent of the Kenyan land base.

"text": "\"Ketone Testing: What You Need to Know What are ketones? Ketones are produced when the body burns fat for energy or fuel. They are also produced when you lose weight or if there is not enough insulin to help your body use sugar for energy. Without enough insulin, glucose builds up in the blood. Since the body is unable to use glucose for energy, it breaks down fat instead. When this occurs, ketones form in the blood and spill into the urine. These ketones can make you very sick. How can I test for ketones? You can test to see if your body is making any ketones by doing a simple urine test. There are several products available for ketone testing and they can be purchased, without a prescription, at your pharmacy."

"text": "What causes high ketone levels? The human body primarily runs on glucose. When your body is low on glucose, or if you have diabetes and don’t have enough insulin to help your cells absorb the glucose, your body starts breaking down fats for energy. Ketones (chemically known as ketone bodies) are byproducts of the breakdown of fatty acids. The breakdown of fat for fuel and the creation of ketones is a normal process for everyone.

However, people with diabetes are at risk for ketone buildup in their blood. If left untreated, people with type 1 diabetes are at risk for developing a condition called diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). While rare, it’s possible for people with type 2 diabetes to experience DKA in certain circumstances as well. Ketosis: Symptoms, signs, and more »Symptoms What are the symptoms of ketone buildup?"

Explore the health benefits of ketosis for accelerated fat loss, disease prevention, better brain function, appetite control, performance, and more. Ketosis can often be a misunderstood subject. Some think it is part of a starvation diet or a alarming sign that something has gone wrong in your metabolism. But this is simply not the truth! You see, ketones – contrary to popular belief and myth – are a much needed and essential healing energy source in our cells that come from the normal metabolism of fat. Have you ever heard someone say that fats are “evil”? This has become the standard way of thinking in today’s society, which has led to our primary energy source coming from carbohydrates – sugar AKA glucose."

By Trevor Stokes @IBTScience On 02/07/12 AT 10:44 AMRaspberry ketones, a dietary supplement that has become part of the latest diet fad, has some people scratching their heads over just what ketones are. Everybody knows to monitor sugar, fat, carbohydrates and calories in a diet, but ketones? When a body is starving for sugar, ketones take over and help breakdown the next best source of energy: stored fat. The body produces ketones during starvation or fasting and also during long bouts of physical training. When your muscles are sore after strenuous exercise - ketones cause the pain. Without ketones, there would be No Pain, No Gain. That's because ketones are acidic and typically become buffered by the amount of carbon dioxide in the blood.

When your cells don't get the glucose they need for energy, your body begins to burn fat for energy, which produces ketones. Ketones are chemicals that the body creates when it breaks down fat to use for energy. The body does this when it doesn’t have enough insulin to use glucose, the body’s normal source of energy. When ketones build up in the blood, they make it more acidic. They are a warning sign that your diabetes is out of control or that you are getting sick. High levels of ketones can poison the body. When levels get too high, you can develop DKA. DKA may happen to anyone with diabetes, though it is rare in people with type 2. Treatment for DKA usually takes place in the hospital."

If you have type 1 diabetes, it is recommended that you have ketone testing supplies on your prescription. Ketone testing may also be useful in people with other types of diabetes that are dependent upon insulin. Why test for ketones? Ketones are produced by the body as an alternative source of energy to sugar. The body produces ketones by breaking down fats, this process is known as ketosis. Ketones may be produced as part of weight loss, however, it’s important for people with diabetes on insulin to note that ketones can be produced when the body has insufficient insulin. When the body has too little insulin, it means that cells of the body cannot take in enough sugar from the blood."

I have also assisted many conferences, and it was last year at AHS14 that I met Dr. Di Agostino. Dr. Di Agostino is one of the leading researches working with cancer and ketosis at the University of South Florida. Is also one of the first researchers to study the effects of exogenous ketone supplementation. He is the first person who talked to me about ketone supplements, and he really spiked my curiosity, mentioning all the amazing benefits of supplementing with BHB. Here is a great article that explains more about his work. So I decided to try a ketone supplement on myself. Unfortunately what was on the market a year ago was a very unpalatable pure ketone salt (Keto Force), which worked on elevating my ketosis but also gave me very bad stomach upset and nausea. Needless to say I did not continue taking it, and forgot all about ketone supplements.

"text": "Start Here Keto Diet Keto Recipes Success Recommended The Books Forum Search Ketosis, Ketones, and How It All Works SHARE THIS PAGEKetosis is a process that the body goes through on an everyday basis, regardless of the number of carbs you eat. This is because this process provides us with energy from ketones whenever sugar is not readily available. In fact, you may have already experienced a very mild level of ketosis if you ever skipped a meal or two, didn’t eat many carbs during the day or exercised for longer than an hour. By doing one of these three things, you can initiate the process of ketosis. Whenever the need for energy increases and carbohydrates aren’t available to meet that demand, the body starts increasing its ketone levels. If carbs are restricted for a more significant amount of time (i.e., longer than three days), then the body will increase ketone levels even further. These deeper levels of ketosis confer many positive effects throughout the body — effects that are experienced in the safest and healthiest way possible by following the ketogenic diet. However, most people are rarely in ketosis and never experience its benefits because the body prefers to use sugar as its primary fuel source — especially if plenty of carbs and protein are provided by the diet. What Happens When We Aren’t in Ketosis Your body adapts to what is put in it, processing different types of nutrients into the energy that it needs. Proteins, fats, and carbs can all be converted into fuel using various metabolic processes."

In this self experiment I tracked lean muscle mass gains, improved metabolism (ketones, glucose), strong regeneration signaling (IGF-1) and a couple of downsides. Last month I undertook my first 5 day water fast. It is turned out to be a really helpful tool for my health and productivity, so I committed to make it a monthly ritual for 12 months. With each month the plan was to push the edge a bit to learn more from the experience – refining the approach to the fast with the different options available and tracking the results to see what could give me the biggest payoff for least effort. Enter the “Fast Mimicking Diet” – an easier and safer way to get the same benefits as pure water fasting. It created a spark of media coverage around it following the publication of a new research paper on it in June 2015. Two of the articles actually had two journalists become fast mimicking diet guinea pigs for 5 days ( Peter Bowes at the BBC, and Victoria Lambert at The Telegraph ). It’s clear to me that most people will never do a water fast because it looks like a psychological feat fit only for diet equivalent of extreme sports fanatics. So the Fast Mimicking Diet was an obvious choice for fasting experiment #2."

SHARE THIS PAGELimiting carbs is one of the easiest ways to get into ketosis. It doesn’t require fasting; it doesn’t even require you to eat fewer calories — all you have to do is restrict your carbohydrates and eat just enough protein (and not too much) to stimulate fat burning and ketone production. Other factors like fat consumption, stress, and activity levels are important to consider as well, but knowing how many carbs you need to eat to get into ketosis is a good place to start. How Many Carbs For Ketosis? Regardless of how many variables impact ketosis, it is important to start somewhere, and carbs are the most important metric to start with on the ketogenic diet. For most people, keeping total carbs below 35g and net carbs below 25g (ideally, below 20g) will get them into a deep ketosis after about a week. ( To figure out your net carb consumption, simply subtract total fiber intake from total carbs. ) Note: Some sweeteners are considered keto-friendly and do not raise blood sugar levels.

Here is what happened to a man in Sweden on a low-carb diet: We report a case of a 59-year-old man, body mass index 26.6 kg/m2, who began a weight reduction program, partly because of knee pains but also because he was a glider pilot where weight is important. He used a Swedish textbook on obesity treatment written by S Rössner together with the commonly used Swedish VLCD [very low calorie diet] Nutrilett (Cederroths, Stockholm, Sweden), 5 packets/day for 3 weeks, which is an approved standard regimen. This treatment resulted in a weight loss of 7 kg. During dieting, the man discovered that an alcohol ignition interlock device, installed in an official company car, indicated that he had consumed alcohol and the vehicle failed to start. This was confusing because the man was a life-long teetotaller and was therefore both surprised and upset by the result. As he had been supervising private aviation he had access to a second breath-alcohol analyzer, which indicated a simultaneous BAC ranging from 0.01 to 0.02 g/100 ml. A VLCD diet (very-low-calorie diet, a protein-sparing modified fast) contains mainly protein along with a small amount of carbohydrate and very few calories, usually fewer than 1000 per day. Just about anyone going on one of these diets will soon be in producing ketone bodies at a pretty high rate. But the same goes for a more traditional low-carb diet as well."

They are also produced when you lose weight or if there is not enough insulin to help your body use sugar for energy. Without enough insulin, glucose builds up in the blood. Since the body is unable to use glucose for energy, it breaks down fat instead. When this occurs, ketones form in the blood and spill into the urine. These ketones can make you very sick. How can I test for ketones? You can test to see if your body is making any ketones by doing a simple urine test. There are several products available for ketone testing and they can be purchased, without a prescription, at your pharmacy."

Ketones are an acid remaining when the body burns its own fat. When the body has insufficient insulin, it cannot get glucose from the blood into the body's cells to use as energy and will instead begin to burn fat.

Personally, I believe it’s absolutely crucial, for whatever type of cancer you’re trying to address, and hopefully some day it will be adopted as a first line of treatment. A ketogenic diet calls for eliminating all but non-starchy vegetable carbohydrates, and replacing them with healthy fats and high-quality protein. The premise is that since cancer cells need glucose to thrive, and carbohydrates turn into glucose in your body, then lowering the glucose level in your blood though carb and protein restriction literally starves the cancer cells into oblivion. Additionally, low protein intake tends to minimize the m TOR pathway that accelerates cell proliferation. This type of diet, in which you restrict all but non-starchy vegetable carbs and replace them with low to moderate amounts of high-quality protein and high amounts of beneficial fat, is what I recommend for everyone, whether you have cancer or not. It’s a diet that will help optimize your weight and all chronic degenerative disease. Eating this way will help you convert from carb burning mode to fat burning. Dr. Thomas Seyfried is one of the leading pioneer academic researchers in promoting how to treat cancer nutritionally. He’s been teaching neurogenetics and neurochemistry as it relates to cancer treatment at Yale University and Boston College for the past 25 years."

In fact, many believe these compounds to be dangerous and unhealthy. But as you are about to discover, ketones can be nothing short of ”miraculous” for the health of your brain and even reversing Alzheimer’s disease. These compounds were popularized by Dr. Robert Atkins in the 1990’s for their profound effects on weight loss. And while ketones do have an impressive ability to help your body torch through fat, these molecules have been maligned by modern medicine. This is due to a state of extreme ketones in the blood, called “ketoacidosis.” The truth is that this while this condition is dangerous, it is extremely rare and only occurs in Type 1 diabetics who are not regulating their insulin levels properly. For the rest of us, ketones are a very, very good thing. But what are ketones anyway?"

When your body is low on glucose, or if you have diabetes and don’t have enough insulin to help your cells absorb the glucose, your body starts breaking down fats for energy. Ketones (chemically known as ketone bodies) are byproducts of the breakdown of fatty acids. The breakdown of fat for fuel and the creation of ketones is a normal process for everyone. In a person without diabetes, insulin, glucagon, and other hormones prevent ketone levels in the blood from getting too high. However, people with diabetes are at risk for ketone buildup in their blood. If left untreated, people with type 1 diabetes are at risk for developing a condition called diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). While rare, it’s possible for people with type 2 diabetes to experience DKA in certain circumstances as well. Ketosis: Symptoms, signs, and more »Symptoms What are the symptoms of ketone buildup?"

Most of your cells are actually 25 percent more efficient when using ketones instead of sugar. Having ketones circulating in your blood can help prevent seizures in epileptics and could also help protect you against neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Ketones in Foods Ketones are not present in foods. Although ketones are a source of energy that almost all of your body cells can use, ketones are actually a byproduct of fat oxidation. In other words, when your body burns fat, it produces ketones that can be used for energy. The more fat your body burns, the more ketones are produced. Although foods do not have ketones, the foods you choose can help you promote ketosis -- the state in which your body uses ketones. How To Produce Ketones To get your body to produce ketones, you need to follow a very low-carb, moderate protein and high fat diet. It is only when your daily carb intake drops below 50 g a day that your body produces enough ketones as a result of utilizing fat as its main source of fat."

"text": "Low-carbers beware the breathalyzerby Michael Eades Comment 17 Share Tweet printemail A recent article in the International Journal of Obesity should give low-carbers cause for a little alarm. Here is what happened to a man in Sweden on a low-carb diet: We report a case of a 59-year-old man, body mass index 26.6 kg/m2, who began a weight reduction program, partly because of knee pains but also because he was a glider pilot where weight is important. He used a Swedish textbook on obesity treatment written by S Rössner together with the commonly used Swedish VLCD [very low calorie diet] Nutrilett (Cederroths, Stockholm, Sweden), 5 packets/day for 3 weeks, which is an approved standard regimen. This treatment resulted in a weight loss of 7 kg. During dieting, the man discovered that an alcohol ignition interlock device, installed in an official company car, indicated that he had consumed alcohol and the vehicle failed to start. This was confusing because the man was a life-long teetotaller and was therefore both surprised and upset by the result. As he had been supervising private aviation he had access to a second breath-alcohol analyzer, which indicated a simultaneous BAC ranging from 0.01 to 0.02 g/100 ml. A VLCD diet (very-low-calorie diet, a protein-sparing modified fast) contains mainly protein along with a small amount of carbohydrate and very few calories, usually fewer than 1000 per day. Just about anyone going on one of these diets will soon be in producing ketone bodies at a pretty high rate. But the same goes for a more traditional low-carb diet as well."

By Trevor Stokes @IBTScience On 02/07/12 AT 10:44 AMRaspberry ketones, a dietary supplement that has become part of the latest diet fad, has some people scratching their heads over just what ketones are. Everybody knows to monitor sugar, fat, carbohydrates and calories in a diet, but ketones? When a body is starving for sugar, ketones take over and help breakdown the next best source of energy: stored fat. The body produces ketones during starvation or fasting and also during long bouts of physical training. When your muscles are sore after strenuous exercise - ketones cause the pain. Without ketones, there would be No Pain, No Gain. That's because ketones are acidic and typically become buffered by the amount of carbon dioxide in the blood. During ketosis, the body becomes overloaded with the chemical and has more ketones than it knows what to do with. The raspberry ketone diet is based on the premise that adding ketones to your diet will make your body release fat from fat cells."

Ketosis vs. Ketoacidosis Ketosis is a state at which your body produces ketones in the liver, shifting the body's metabolism away from glucose and towards fat utilisation. The presence of ketones in your body, which is indicative of lipolysis, is a definite proof of ketosis. According to Volek and Phinney in their best-selling book \"\"The Art and Science of Low-Carbohydrate Living\"\", nutritional ketosis is defined by serum ketones ranging from 0.5 to 3.0 m M. The frequently asked question is whether ketosis is dangerous. Ketosis is not only a great weight loss tool, but it has been used for treating diseases such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's or cancer. You can check out my post here to see more about health effects of ketogenic diets with links to relevant research. While nutritional ketosis is perfectly safe, ketoacidosis is an indicator of serious health problems. Ketoacidosis occurs in serious health conditions such as type 1 and type 2 diabetics and alcoholics and has nothing to do with nutritional ketosis. The level of ketones in ketoacidosis are 3-5 times higher than in ketosis resulting from a ketogenic diet.4 Ways to Measure Ketones There are three types of ketone bodies: Acetone, Acetoacetate and Beta-Hydroxybutryate (BHB). Unlike protein intake, where the daily amount is determined by your lean mass weight, the amount of carbs to enter ketosis can be estimated using:1) Blood ketone meter It's the most accurate way to measure ketone bodies, beta-hydroxybutryate (BHB, although not technically a ketone body)."

Its presence is equated with starvation or a warning sign of something going wrong in your metabolism. But nothing could be farther from the truth, except if you are an ill-treated type 1 diabetic person. [ 1] Ketones - contrary to popular belief and myth - are a much needed and essential healing energy source in our cells that come from the normal metabolism of fat. The entire body uses ketones in a more safe and effective way than the energy source coming from carbohydrates - sugar AKA glucose. Our bodies will produce ketones if we eat a diet devoid of carbs or a low-carb diet (less than 60 grams of carbs per day). [ 2] By eating a very low-carb diet or no carbs at all (like a caveman), we become keto-adapted. In fact, what is known today as the ketogenic diet was the number one treatment for epilepsy until Big Pharma arrived with its dangerous cocktails of anti-epileptic drugs.

"text": "Ketones: Clearing Up the Confusion Updated June 6, 2017Published November 30, 2015 by Amy Campbell, MS, RD, LDN, CDEPrint Text Size: A A AKetones, ketosis, ketoacidosis, DKA …these are words that you’ve probably heard at one point or another, and you might be wondering what they mean and if you need to worry about them at all, especially if you have diabetes. This week, we’ll explore the mysterious world of ketones, including if and how they may affect you. Ketones — what are they? Ketones are a type of acid that the body can form if there’s not enough carbohydrate to be burned for energy (yes, you do need carbs for fuel). Without enough carb, the body turns to another energy source: fat. Ketones are made in the liver from fat breakdown. This is called ketogenesis. Advertisement People who don’t have diabetes can form ketones. This might occur if a person does extreme exercise, has an eating disorder, is fasting (not eating), or is following a low-carbohydrate diet. This is called ketosis and it’s a normal response to starvation."

"text": "\"Type 2 Diabetes Symptoms All About Ketones and Diabetes Ketones Occur When the Body Breaks Down Fat For Energy By Debra Manzella, RN | Reviewed by Richard N. Fogoros, MDUpdated March 28, 2017Share Pin Email Print Peter Dazeley/Photographer's Choice/Getty Images. It is important for people with diabetes to have an understanding of what ketones are and how to identify them. Ketones are organic compounds that result when body fat is broken down for energy. While this may not sound like a bad thing, for people with diabetes, especially Type 1 diabetes, high levels of ketones in the body can be toxic. Should you develop ketones, you need to know how to identify symptoms, how to check for them, and which levels are considered to be toxic. When Do Ketones Occur in the Body? Glucose is usually used by cells for energy. But, when there's no insulin to help transport it out of the blood and into the cells, the body has an \"\"energy crisis\"\" and starts to break down body fat into ketones as an alternative fuel source. High levels of ketones in the body can be toxic. High blood glucose levels (over 250 mg/dl) are one sign that the body may have high levels of ketones circulating in the blood."

I have also assisted many conferences, and it was last year at AHS14 that I met Dr. Di Agostino. Dr. Di Agostino is one of the leading researches working with cancer and ketosis at the University of South Florida. Is also one of the first researchers to study the effects of exogenous ketone supplementation. He is the first person who talked to me about ketone supplements, and he really spiked my curiosity, mentioning all the amazing benefits of supplementing with BHB. Here is a great article that explains more about his work. So I decided to try a ketone supplement on myself. Unfortunately what was on the market a year ago was a very unpalatable pure ketone salt (Keto Force), which worked on elevating my ketosis but also gave me very bad stomach upset and nausea. Needless to say I did not continue taking it, and forgot all about ketone supplements.

"text": "Is the Fast Mimicking Diet (FMD) an easier way to get the benefits from fasting? In this self experiment I tracked lean muscle mass gains, improved metabolism (ketones, glucose), strong regeneration signaling (IGF-1) and a couple of downsides. Last month I undertook my first 5 day water fast. It is turned out to be a really helpful tool for my health and productivity, so I committed to make it a monthly ritual for 12 months. With each month the plan was to push the edge a bit to learn more from the experience – refining the approach to the fast with the different options available and tracking the results to see what could give me the biggest payoff for least effort. Enter the “Fast Mimicking Diet” – an easier and safer way to get the same benefits as pure water fasting. It created a spark of media coverage around it following the publication of a new research paper on it in June 2015. Two of the articles actually had two journalists become fast mimicking diet guinea pigs for 5 days ( Peter Bowes at the BBC, and Victoria Lambert at The Telegraph ). It’s clear to me that most people will never do a water fast because it looks like a psychological feat fit only for diet equivalent of extreme sports fanatics. So the Fast Mimicking Diet was an obvious choice for fasting experiment #2."

Before we begin, a disclaimer in order: If you want to actually understand this topic, you must invest the time and mental energy to do so. You really have to get into the details. Obviously, I love the details and probably read 5 or 6 scientific papers every week on this topic (and others). I don’t expect the casual reader to want to do this, and I view it as my role to synthesize this information and present it to you. But this is not a bumper-sticker issue. I know it’s trendy to make blanket statements – ketosis is “unnatural,” for example, or ketosis is “superior” – but such statements mean nothing if you don’t understand the biochemistry and evolution of our species. So, let’s agree to let the unsubstantiated statements and bumper stickers reside in the world of political debates and opinion-based discussions. For this reason, I’ve deliberately broken this post down and only included this content (i.e., background) for Part I. What is ketosis? Ketosis is a metabolic state in which the liver produces small organic molecules called ketone bodies at “sufficient” levels, which I’ll expand upon later."

"text": "Download Interview Transcript By Dr. Mercola Could a ketogenic diet eventually be a “standard of care” drug-free treatment for cancer? Personally, I believe it’s absolutely crucial, for whatever type of cancer you’re trying to address, and hopefully some day it will be adopted as a first line of treatment. A ketogenic diet calls for eliminating all but non-starchy vegetable carbohydrates, and replacing them with healthy fats and high-quality protein. The premise is that since cancer cells need glucose to thrive, and carbohydrates turn into glucose in your body, then lowering the glucose level in your blood though carb and protein restriction literally starves the cancer cells into oblivion. Additionally, low protein intake tends to minimize the m TOR pathway that accelerates cell proliferation. This type of diet, in which you restrict all but non-starchy vegetable carbs and replace them with low to moderate amounts of high-quality protein and high amounts of beneficial fat, is what I recommend for everyone, whether you have cancer or not. It’s a diet that will help optimize your weight and all chronic degenerative disease. Eating this way will help you convert from carb burning mode to fat burning. Dr. Thomas Seyfried is one of the leading pioneer academic researchers in promoting how to treat cancer nutritionally. He’s been teaching neurogenetics and neurochemistry as it relates to cancer treatment at Yale University and Boston College for the past 25 years."

I condition my response by saying this – I want to deal only in evidence and hypotheses grounded in biochemistry. I admit up front that this will probably become something of a treatise on what constitutes a well-formulated ketogenic diet. I don’t have the time (or the energy) to put together a document that covers all facets of the use of exogenous ketones in sufficient depth, so what I want to do is to address the folks that I see asking me about them most often – those who have excess body fat, and are looking to lose weight. They have been told about the potential benefits to fat loss via exogenous ketones, and they want to know if the hype is real. Those of you who know me (or read my previous post here) know that I like to respond with “it depends.” So…when the question is raised, “Should I supplement with exogenous ketones?” what do you think my answer will be? Probably not! ( HA, I tricked you! )…"

Each of the fourth grade focus areas are discussed below, so keep reading to find out exactly what to work on with your child. What Your Fourth Grader Should Know Geometry In fourth grade math, your child should be able to identify and draw points, rays, angles, lines and line segments. It is also important for your student to know the difference between parallel and perpendicular lines. Your child should also be familiar with each type of triangle, as well as lines of symmetry for a variety of 2-dimensional figures. Number and Operations Fourth graders compare fractions that have different numerators and denominators. They also add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers with like denominators. Be sure that your fourth grader can multiply a fraction by a mixed number and solve word problems involving fractional amounts. At the fourth grade level, your child will learn to convert fractions to decimals and to compare two decimals amounts up to the hundredths place. Measurement and Data Your fourth grader should be able to recognize that an angle is formed by two rays that have a common endpoint."

"text": "Magazine When Should a Kid Start Kindergarten? By ELIZABETH WEIL JUNE 3, 2007Correction Appended Photo illustration by Chris Buck According to the apple-or-coin test, used in the Middle Ages, children should start school when they are mature enough for the delayed gratification and abstract reasoning involved in choosing money over fruit. In 15th- and 16th-century Germany, parents were told to send their children to school when the children started to act “rational.” And in contemporary America, children are deemed eligible to enter kindergarten according to an arbitrary date on the calendar known as the birthday cutoff — that is, when the state, or in some instances the school district, determines they are old enough. The birthday cutoffs span six months, from Indiana, where a child must turn 5 by July 1 of the year he enters kindergarten, to Connecticut, where he must turn 5 by Jan. 1 of his kindergarten year. Children can start school a year late, but in general they cannot start a year early. As a result, when the 22 kindergartners entered Jane Andersen’s class at the Glen Arden Elementary School near Asheville, N. C., one warm April morning, each brought with her or him a snack and a unique set of gifts and challenges, which included for some what’s referred to in education circles as “the gift of time. ”After the morning announcements and the Pledge of Allegiance, Andersen’s kindergartners sat down on a blue rug. Two, one boy and one girl, had been redshirted — the term, borrowed from sports, describes students held out for a year by their parents so that they will be older, or larger, or more mature, and thus better prepared to handle the increased pressures of kindergarten today. Six of Andersen’s pupils, on the other hand, were quite young, so young that they would not be enrolled in kindergarten at all if North Carolina succeeds in pushing back its birthday cutoff from Oct. 16 to Aug. 31."

The state earned a D in per-pupil spending, below the national average grade of C and a drop from last year's D+. Adjusted for regional cost differences, Oklahoma per-pupil expenditures were pegged at an average $9,075, well below the national average of $11,864. Mississippi, Nevada, Tennessee and Utah also got a D, and Idaho earned a D-minus, the lowest in the nation. The District of Columbia and Hawaii were not graded because both are single-district jurisdictions. Overall, 12 states improved in per-pupil spending, while scores fell in 35 states, the report shows. New Hampshire, North Carolina and North Dakota made the largest gains since last year.

"text": "What’s Singapore Math? By Laura Lewis Brown Parents in the United States often hear (and stress about) how students in other countries perform better than our children in math and science. With that in mind, many schools and homeschoolers are implementing an approach to teaching elementary math that is common practice in Singapore. Singapore math, which refers to the teaching methods or the actual curriculum used for kindergarten through sixth grade in the small island country, has become popular due to Singapore’s consistent top ranking on an international assessment of student math achievement called the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). In the latest TIMSS report in 2007, Singapore was ranked in the top three in fourth- and eighth-grade math scores, while the United States ranked ninth and eleventh, respectively. Mastery, Not Memorization Supporters of Singapore math credit the Singaporean methods of instruction and curriculum for its students’ success. While American math instruction often relies on drilling and memorization of many skills each year, Singapore math focuses on children not just learning but also truly mastering a limited number of concepts each school year. The goal is for children to perform well because they understand the material on a deeper level; they are not just learning it for the test. “The sequence of topics in Singapore math has been carefully constructed based upon child development theory,” says Jeffery Thomas, president of Singapore Math Inc., the primary producer of Singapore math products for the U. S. market. “ The means to mastery is problem solving, and the beauty of the approach is that the majority of students are well prepared to tackle increasingly difficult topics, such as fractions and ratio, when they are introduced in the third through fifth grades."

Carissa, a fourth-grader sporting a jean jacket with a fur collar, types rapidly with two fingers into a shared Google Doc. She and her tablemates each have a role to play. “ I’m the summarizer,” she said, her eyes not leaving the i Pad. “ I’m typing a summary into the Google Doc and then my group can write too and ask questions. ”Minutes later, Coccia turns on the Smart Board, a kind of computerized projector, at the front of the room. Answers from all of the groups are displayed. One group has chosen a picture from the movie “Frozen,” with “let it go” in all caps across the top — they explain to the class that it represents the theme of moving on after experiencing a problem."

G. asks from Phoenix, AZ on February 20, 2008102 answers Hi all, Does anyone have any experience with thier child going through the GT testing? The school my daughter (age 5) attends sent home a parent nomination form and I really thought nothing of it. ( I thought that she was right where she needed to be for kindergarten.) Anyway, a few days later her teacher asked me to sign a permision slip because she was nominating her to be tested. I looked online to find any information on GT testing but I really couldn't find anything so I spoke to the person in charge at the school and he said that the test was really secretive because parents might try to \"\"prep\"\" thier kids for the test. He also stated that very few kids actually get placed in the program. My questions are have any of you had any expirence with these tests and if she does get placed what should I expect. Another question is since she is my first in school, what is on target for a kindergartner...what should she be acomplishing at this age. Thanks in advance!!! J. Respond to Question What can I do next?"

"text": "Math / 4th Grade Math: Understanding Linear Units4th Grade Math: Understanding Linear Units You'll learn about different linear units in 4th grade, and you'll also practice converting larger linear units into smaller units. For help with this concept, read on!Linear Units for 4th Grade'Linear' means 'straight line' and linear units are used to measure distances, lengths and heights. For instance, you would measure how tall you are, how long a piece of rope is and how far it is to the grocery store in linear units. Types of Units Within the metric system, you'll work with meters, which are abbreviated as 'm.' The height of an adult is usually between one and two meters. Centimeters (cm) are used to measure smaller lengths, and 1 m = 100 cm. You'll measure long distances in kilometers (km), each of which is equal to 1,000 meters. You'll also measure lengths, heights and distances using the customary system. The smallest linear unit in this system is the inch (in), and 12 inches are equal to one foot (ft). Yards (yd) are the next largest unit, and 1 yd = 3 ft. Long distances are measured using miles (mi)."

"text": "Grade-by-Grade Learning: Fourth Grade What They Learn | How Kids Learn What They Learn in Fourth Grade The Basics In fourth grade children take on new types of work and social experiences, and for some, these can be tough. Fourth graders may struggle to follow the many directions and long-range planning that their school assignments require. They have to collaborate with their peers on group projects, which can be stressful in the charged social dynamics that emerge in fourth grade. Students will probably have a textbook for each subject, as well as multiple folders, all of which can present organizational challenges (plus heavy backpacks). The work gets harder and they need to manage it more independently — that includes homework assignments in multiple subjects, as well as keeping track of those assignments and tasks. Language & Literacy Books, books, and more books fill the curriculum as fourth graders become sophisticated readers. They can use root words (words that are the basis for other words, such as “act” in “action”), context clues (looking for clues in the surrounding text and images in the story), and word endings to figure out new words. They’ll spend long periods of time reading and writing on their own. Teachers introduce genres such as myths and legends, fantasy and adventure. Fourth graders relate characters and other story elements to their own lives, and empathize with the characters most like them."

I have always seen the ability tests scored relative to the age and the Achievement tests scored relative to the grade, which makes sense to me as the achievement depends of what is being taught, not whether the child is from the beginning of the end of the year. It probably does not make a lot of difference if your son was never retained. The point is that you score a kid compared to a population of his peers, so the question is: what are his peers for the purpose of the test: his classmates at the same period of the year, or kids of the same age. Honestly, I am not sure it makes a lot of difference.3groms Senior Member Posts: 246Jan 14, 2009 at 3:39pm Quote Jan 14, 2009 at 3:39pm WJC test of achievement.

"text": "Knee Wraps Help Your Lift, But Harm Your Knees Joshua Wortman Coach Bodybuilding, Supplements, Nutrition, Strength Training Share Tweet The back squat is commonly deemed the king of lower body exercises, and many lifters rely on knee wraps to protect their knees when squatting due to the heavy loads that are involved. Knee wraps are also worn to gain mechanical advantage during the squat. There is evidence supporting the notion that wearing knee wraps enables athletes to lift more weight or perform more reps than they could without them. However, according to a new study, wearing knee wraps during squatting may not be the best idea. This study investigated the effects of wearing knee wraps on mechanical output and performance characteristics of the back squat. Ten resistance trained men participated in the study. All had squat experience and had squatted with knee wraps, although they did not use them regularly. The study was divided into two sessions that were 7 days apart. Session 1 was used to determine the 1-rep max (1RM) in the back squat. In session 2, each lifter performed 6 single back squats with 80% of their 1RM."

"text": "\"Post-Operative Rehabilitation for Knee Surgery We Have Advanced Treatment Tools to Help You Get Back on Your Feet!Not every knee injury or condition requires surgery. It's generally understood by doctors and surgeons that surgery will introduce more scar tissue into your knee. This added scar tissue will be problematic, requiring physical therapy and conservative treatment options post-surgery. If not dealt with properly, your knee could end up in worse condition than before the surgery! This is why surgery is only performed as a last resort. Most doctors, surgeons and orthopedic specialists will recommend conservative therapy for minor knee injuries before even considering surgery. Some of the most effective conservative treatment methods you will find are: Rest - This is important for intial healing because without an appropriate amount of rest you are at risk for increased inflammation, pain and re-injury to your knee. This can make your knee injury even worse, turn an acute injury into a chronic case, or even damage other soft tissue in your knee. Avoid Activities that Caused Your Injury - While resting your knee it's also important to avoid all activities that may have caused your injury in the first place (especially if you are active in any sports or activites that require pivoting or twisting of your knee). Continuing on with regular activities will not only make your injury worse, but limping to 'work around' your injury can also wind up giving you over compensation pain in other areas of your body (like your opposite/healthy knee)."

With a mild injury you may only notice tightness in the hamstring muscles, however, a more serious injury can cause weakness and severe pain in the posterior thigh. Common symptoms of hamstring pulls include: Hamstring Pain A sharp pain or twinges may be felt along the length of your hamstring or at a specific point on the back of your thigh. You may experience tenderness and/or muscle spasms in your hamstring muscle during active and resistive movements. Pain often increases when pressure is applied to the injured hamstring muscles. It is possible to experience only mild pain when walking even if a tear in the muscle occurs, however, pain will increase if strenuous exercise is attempted. An avulsion, or complete tear causes extreme pain, even during rest. The torn tissue may bunch in the back of the thigh causing even more pain when the leg is bent. If you have a chronic injury, you may feel more of a dull ache that lasts for long periods of time. Pain can be experienced while sitting or walking up or down stairs/hills."

Often you will feel pain and tenderness in your joint, especially when you touch your knee with slight pressure. If you have a tear, you will usually feel a sharp pain along the joint line in the area of your tear (usually the inside or outer part of the knee). Pain in the middle of your knee often indicates a medial meniscus tear. In some cases you may even experience pain throughout your entire knee joint.

"text": "\"Fitness for One and All Home Page Books and e Books by the Director Definitions of “Raw” in Powerlifting Forum Post By Gary F. Zeolla Many powerlifters wear a squat suit and bench shirt in training and in competition. A squat suit basically looks like a wrestler’s singlet, while a bench shirt looks somewhat like a short sleeve T-shirt. However, both are made of very strong and thick material, using polyester, denim, or canvas. Briefs are also sometimes worn under the squat suit. These look somewhat like boxer shorts, except they come up much higher on the torso, and again, are made of much stronger material. The suit, briefs, and shirt are also usually fitted so that they fit very tight. It can sometimes take one or two helpers for a lifter to get the gear on and off. Originally, the purpose of the suit was to protect the hips and of the shirt to protect the shoulders. However, the gear has evolved to the point now that they can significantly add to the amount of weight a lifter can lift. Some report getting as much as 100-200 pounds or more out of a good suit or shirt (although this writer only gets about 50 pounds out of my suit and briefs together and about 30 pounds out of my shirt)."

"text": "\"Hamstring Tear A hamstring tear, also referred to as a grade II hamstring strain, occurs when the hamstring muscle, or tendon, fibers are excessively stretched and tear. Your hamstrings are very long muscles that cross 2 joints (your hip and knee) therefore they are more prone to injury. A tear in the hamstrings can occur in the belly of one of the hamstring muscles (the biceps femoris, semitendinosus, or semimembranosus) or in the hamstring tendons that attach the 3 muscles to the ischium. The biceps femoris muscle is the most frequently injured, as it suffers the largest stretch during sprinting, followed by the semitendinosus muscle. If you have a multi-muscle tear, it normally occurs at the point where your hamstring muscles and tendons meet, called the musculotendinous junction or musculotendinous complex. However, a tear can occur at any place along your hamstring muscle bellies, or at the tendon attachments to the bone. Hamstring muscle tears occur most often early in the activity as a result of a poor warm up, or in the later stages of practices or games as a result of fatigue. Young, active teens or adults between 25-44 years are most susceptible to hamstrings strains and other hamstring injuries, and men are twice as likely to be injured as women. If you have suffered from a forceful strain of the hamstring it is recommended that you see a doctor for a proper diagnosis as symptoms of a complete tear are similar to those of a hamstring pull or strain. Early diagnosis of a complete hamstring tear is very important."

JULIE14 Replies oldest • newesthelixhelix7 years ago Poor you, that's horrid. I hate it when knees go as makes everything so hard. I think you should ask your rheumy doc/nurse again about getting knee aspirated. My doc says that removing the fluid helps as it makes less work for the various medicines, as with such a build up of inflammation then it's hard for chemicals to combat. I wonder whether the other feeling of something being out of place in your knee is an underlying thing, obviously it's not helping but could be a separate bit of osteoarthritis so worth also going to your GP.

In fact, your body started healing the moment you injured yourself and it's the blood in your body that makes it all happen. Your blood is the transport mechanism for everything that's good inside of you. It carries oxygen, nutrients, water and antibodies. Bringing proper blood flow to your injured bursa is essential to healing. Unfortunately, when you injure your body, you stop moving and the swelling sets in. That means your vital blood flow can be reduced to a trickle!It'll seem weird for you to read this, but there are a LOT of people out there that do not understand how fast a Cold Cure Wrap ®can get the swelling / inflammation in your bursa under control! You can start to deal with the actual injury and pain only after the inflammation is reduced - this is where the Blood Flow Stimulation Therapy ™ (BFST ®) effect from a BFST Wrap ® really starts to shine!The MISSING Piece of the Puzzle.... where SO MANY get it WRONG!Swelling and inflammation is your body responding to an injury.

Here we look at each of the muscles of the knee, how they work, what can go wrong and how to prevent knee muscle injuries. Muscles work in pairs, one contracting while the other relaxes to allow for smooth, full movement of the knee. It is vital to have both good strength and flexibility in the knee muscles. Any tightness or weakness makes you prone to a whole host of knee problems. Once you have finished this section, be sure to check out the knee stretches section which includes simple test to see if there is any tightness in your knee muscles and how to combat that tightness, and the knee strengthening exercises section, which has loads of exercises to help you safely and effectively build up your strength. Quadriceps Location: front of the thigh from the hip to the knee Action: straighten the leg Common activities: getting up from a chair, going upstairs Common problems: tightness, weakness, muscle tear, tendonitis.

The knee provides both strength and flexibility during leg movements, while being loose enough to allow the freedom for quick movements and changes in directions. This strength and flexibility in the knee also makes it more risk for have an injury. Any one can suffer from a meniscus injury what puts you at great risk are athletes who play contact sports such as football, rugby, hockey, and/or repetitive stress activities (such as running and skiing) It also can be job related where you spend a lot of time in the squat position (i.e. construction labor, carpet-laying, warehouse worker). Although knee injuries are more common in women than men, men experience more meniscus injuries and tears (approximately 2.5 males: 1 female). This is believed to be due to men's participation in more aggressive sports and manual activities. For men, meniscal injuries occur most often between the ages of 31 to 40; for females meniscal tears usually occur between 11 and 20 years. The most common causes of meniscus injuries are acute trauma to the knee and degeneration of the knee joint tissue. In either case, a piece of the meniscus can loosen or tear and move around in your joint interfering with your normal knee movement and function."

"text": "... Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Our Services Where Does it Hurt? Knee Arthroscopy PRINTABLE BOOKLETA Patient's Guide to Knee Arthroscopy Introduction The use of arthroscopy has revolutionized many different types of orthopedic surgery. During arthroscopy, a small video camera attached to a fiberoptic lens is inserted into the body to allow a physician or surgeon to see without making a large incision ( arthro means joint scopy means look). The knee was the first joint in which the arthroscope was commonly used to both diagnose problems and to perform surgical procedures inside the knee joint. This guide will help you understandwhat parts of the knee are involvedwhat types of conditions can be treatedwhat to expect after surgery Anatomy What parts of the knee are involved? The knee joint is formed where the femur (lower end of the thighbone) connects with the tibia (upper end of the main lower leg bone). On the front of the joint is the patella (kneecap). The patella is what is called a sesamoid bone that is a part of the extensor mechanism of the knee joint. The extensor mechanism connects the large muscles of the thigh to the tibia; contracting the thigh muscles pulls on the tibia and allows us to straighten the knee. The parts of the extensor mechanism include the thigh muscles, the quadriceps tendon, the patella and the patella tendon."

This extra stress placed on the hamstrings can occur during: Active sports that require speed, power and agility (soccer, football, baseball, softball, basketball, rugby, tennis, water skiing)Track & field activities that involve a lot of jumping, kicking, running and fast \"\"stop/start\"\" motions with your legs (sprints, hurdles, long jump)Individual activities can put a lot of continuous pressure on your hamstrings (running, water skiing, skating, cheerleading, dancing, weight lifting, climbing). These athletes are susceptible to chronic pulls as a result of the repetitive nature of their activities. They often suffer from avulsion fractures following a burst of speed. The main cause of hamstring pulls are weak or unconditioned hamstring muscles and poor flexibility. When the hamstring muscles are not in shape and not properly warmed up for use they are more prone to pulls. Maintaining healthy muscles in the back of your thigh will result in less tightness, spasm, pulls, and strain in your hamstrings. Muscle Fatigue Muscle exhaustion decreases your strength, power and endurance which increase your risk for injury. Over-stretching, overexertion and overuse of your hamstring muscles occurs frequently in sporting activities and/or daily life. Improper or No Warm-up As with any muscle, not warming up your hamstrings before use increases the chance of a muscle pull."

Captive komodo dragons may often weigh more, as much as 166 kilograms (365 pounds). Komodo dragons are the heaviest lizards on Earth. They have long, flat heads with rounded snouts, scaly skin, bowed legs and huge, muscular tails. They have about 60 frequently replaced serrated teeth that can measure up to 2.5 centimetres (1 inch) in length.

Lizards (Lacertilla) are the most diverse group of squamates comprising no less than 4500 species which are associated with the groups like iguanas, geckos, blind lizards, beaded lizards, chameleons, chisel-teeth lizards, anguids, and others. Lizards are normally found in the temperate as well as tropical conditions throughout the South and North America, along with Australia, Asia, Europe and Africa. Lizards also live in many tropical islands such as Indian, Pacific, and Atlantic Oceans. Many lizards display four limbs but there are certain skink species that are completely limbless. Lizard Facts For Kids Lizards have a long tail. Some species have a tail which can be easily broken. A weak lizard’s tail allows it to get rid of its predator that catches it by the tail. Thus, it is one of the useful defense mechanisms lizards employ. However, a lizard’s tail can be born again."

Adult Komodo dragons are an almost-uniform stone color with distinct, large scales. Juvenile dragons may display more vibrant coloring and patterning. Their tongues are yellow and forked, appropriate for their draconian name. The muscles of the Komodo's jaws and throat allow it to swallow huge chunks of meat with astonishing rapidity. Several movable joints, such as the intramandibular hinge opens the lower jaw unusually wide. The stomach expands easily, enabling an adult to consume up to 80 percent of its own body weight in a single meal, which most likely explains some exaggerated claims for immense weights in captured individuals."

Males can measure up to 3 m (10 ft) in length and can weigh almost 80 kg (176 lb). They use these tongues to pick up smell, from even a mile away and eat wild buffalo, deer, snakes, fish and pigs. They are formidable predators and their insatiable appetite has added to their ferocious reputation. The bacteria that is contained in their saliva is so lethal that even a bite can be dangerous.

It evolved in isolation, surviving only on Indonesian islands—Komodo, Flores, Gil Motang, Padar, and Rinca. As its environment’s apex predator, it evolved tremendous size and strength, looking like a monster taken right out of mythology. There is still something almost unbelievable about the scale of these beasts. We have only just begun to learn about this mysterious creature, and the island of Komodo may yet yield more secrets.10 Inspiration For King Kong Photo credit: Turner Entertainment Merian C. Cooper conceived of King Kong as the story of a giant gorilla on a prehistoric island, and he imagined the film ending with the beast on top of the Empire State Building. He didn’t know, however, how to get from the premise to the climax—until he turned to Douglas Burden and his Komodo dragons. Burden was known for capturing live Komodo dragons and bringing them to New York. The first two living dragons that made it back to the United States did not survive long. Cooper blamed civilized society for the deaths of the dragons in the zoo, and he decided he wanted his furry monster to similarly get captured, be showcased, and die. This doesn’t mean the filmmakers were huge advocates of animal welfare."

Introduction Varanus komodoensis is the largest extant lizard on Earth and is endemic to several small islands in Indonesia. The genus name, Varanus is the latinization of the Arabic word \"\"waran\"\" which stands for monitor (Egyptians believed these lizards served as monitors, alerting people to the presence of crocodiles). Its common names include the \"\"Komodo dragon\"\" (Komodo is one of the islands they are found on), \"\"ora\"\" which means land crocodile in the Mangarrai dialect, and Komodo monitor. History and Evolution V. komodoensis share a common ancestor with dinosaurs, but do not descend from them. Both V. komodoensis and dinosaurs belong to the subclass Diapsida which is branched into two infraclasses: Archosauria (dinosaurs, including birds) and Lepidosauria (tuataras, lizards, and snakes). Fossil records show that around 100 million years ago, during the Cretaceous period, a species related to the present-day Varanidae appeared and reached Australia by about 15 million years ago. From this species descended a second lineage which differentiated into V. komodoensis about 4 million years ago."

This term is transliterated since the Korean language uses a different alphabet from English. For that reason, it is sometimes spelled differently. Halmeoni is one such variation. Halmi is a possible shortened form that may be used by very young grandchildren. Koreans use family titles extensively in place of given names, and the rules governing family titles are rather intricate. One's older brother, for example, is called by a different name than a younger brother. Grandparent names are, however, fairly simple. Maternal grandmothers may be referred to as oe-halmoni to distinguish them from the paternal side.

According to Autism Speaks, a national advocacy group, tens of millions of individuals around the globe have been diagnosed with autism. Unfortunately, such statistics are vague and don't offer the full picture of the prevalence of the disorder. In order to understand the number of people affected by autism worldwide, it's essential to take a closer look at the numbers for each country that has been studied, as well as social and cultural factors that may apply. Autism Prevalence Around the World There's is no official count of the number of people who have been diagnosed with autism worldwide. Some countries don't have well-established health and education systems, so those on the higher functioning end of the spectrum can slip through the cracks. According to the Simmons Foundation Autism Research Initiative, a number of factors can affect the accuracy of autism surveys worldwide. In addition to the heath and education resources available, these include the way that the society views autism and an autism diagnosis and the methods used to gather the data. Although there are many countries that simply don't have enough official data about autism, several countries have conducted reputable studies."

If you are, then it is important that you speak with a Wallin & Klarich California family law attorney who can evaluate your case and advise you of your legal rights as a grandparent. In California, under Family Code section 3100, the family court may grant reasonable visitation rights to the grandparent of a minor child. The court may grant you reasonable grandparent visitation rights if either parent of a minor child is deceased. Even if neither parent of the minor child is deceased, the court may still grant you visitation rights. In order for the California family law court to grant you reasonable grandparent visitation rights with your grandchild, the court must find that there is a preexisting relationship between you and your grandchild. The court will balance the best interest of your grandchild when determining whether to grant your grandparent visitation request.

But he and his wife, Debra, have been taking care of their 8-year-old granddaughter, Joelynn, all of her life except for about five months she lived with his daughter. Stein, of Lawton, said his daughter, who lives in Kentucky, made what he called some bad choices and she didn't object when her parents became legal guardians of her daughter about three years ago. Stein, 53, told members of the House of Representatives Judiciary Committee on Thursday he and his wife want to adopt Joelynn, but the steep cost of paying attorney fees, even in an uncontested adoption, were prohibitive. He said he's been told it could cost $15,000 in attorney fees, while a home study costs about $750 and background checks could run $500 to $800.“I would like to see it made easier,” said Stein, a computer security expert. His daughter isn't planning to contest the adoption and his granddaughter, who calls him “Papa,” seems to welcome the adoption. “She loves living with us,” Stein said. “ She likes the stability of living with us. ”Adjusting the laws Lawyers specializing in adoptions told the committee little changes could be made in state adoption laws because parents have federal constitutional rights. But they suggested that legislators could lower or reduce the annual $100 fee legal guardians have to pay when filing required reports with local court officials."

"text": "\"Visitation Rights of Grandparents Print Español If you are a grandparent and want information about visitation with your grandchildren, there are many resources that can help you learn about your options and understand your rights as a grandparent. Under California law, a grandparent can ask the court for reasonable visitation with a grandchild. To give a grandparent reasonable visitation with a grandchild, the court has to: Find that there was a pre-existing relationship between grandparent and grandchild that has “engendered a bond.” This means that there is such a bond between grandparent and grandchild that visitation is in best interest of the grandchild. ANDBalance the best interest of the child in having visitation with a grandparent with the rights of the parents to make decisions about their child. In general, grandparents cannot file for visitation rights while the grandchild’s parents are married. But there are exceptions, like: The parents are living separately;A parent’s whereabouts are unknown (and have been for at least a month);One of the parents joins the grandparent’s petition for visitation;The child does not live with either of his or her parents; or The grandchild has been adopted by a stepparent. If a grandparent has visitation through the courts, and things change and none of these exceptions apply any more, one or both parents can ask the court to end the grandparent’s visitation and the court must then end the grandparent’s visitation rights at that time. Read California Family Code sections 3100-3105 to read the law about a grandparent’s rights to visitation. This code section also details other situations the court must consider before giving visitation to a grandparent."

The Favorite – Grandfather and Grandson, by Georgios Jakobides (1890)Grandparents are the parents of a person's father or mother – paternal or maternal. Every sexually-reproducing creature who is not a genetic chimera has a maximum of four genetic grandparents, eight genetic great-grandparents, sixteen genetic great-great-grandparents, 32 genetic great-great-great-grandparents, 64 genetic great-great-great-great-grandparents, etc., although the numbers will be lower in cases of pedigree collapse. In the history of modern humanity, around 30,000 years ago, the number of modern humans who lived to be a grandparent increased. [ citation needed] It is not known for certain what spurred this increase in longevity, but it is generally believed that a key consequence of three generations being alive together was the preservation of information which could otherwise have been lost; an example of this important information might have been where to find water in times of drought. [ 1] [2]In cases where parents are unwilling or unable to provide adequate care for their children (e.g., death of the parents), grandparents often take on the role of primary caregivers."

Related to adoption: open adoption, Adoption Process Adoption A two-step judicial process in conformance to state statutory provisions in which the legal obligationsand rights of a child toward the biological parents are terminated and new rights and obligations arecreated between the child and the adoptive parents. Adoption involves the creation of the parent-child relationship between individuals who are not naturally so related. The adopted child is given the rights, privileges, and duties of a child and heir by theadoptive family. Since adoption was not recognized at Common Law, all adoption procedures in the United States areregulated by statute. Adoption statutes prescribe the conditions, manner, means, and consequences of adoption. In addition, they specify the rights and responsibilities of all parties involved. De facto adoption is a Voidable agreement to adopt a child, based on a statutory proceeding in a particular state, which becomes lawful when the petition to adopt is properly presented. Equitable adoption, sometimes referred to as virtual adoption, is treated by the law as final for certainpurposes in spite of the fact that it has not been formally executed. When adoption appears to complywith standards of fairness and justice, some states will grant a child the rights of one who has beenadopted even though the adoption procedure is incomplete."

"text": "Written by Claudia Smith March 23, 2016The short answer is less than $70! The long answer is that the cost of a DNA test is now affordable to many people. This is due to the widespread demand for DNA testing for a variety of reasons. In the past, testing was most often used to determine paternity or to prove or deny paternity when it was being contested. Most of the time, testing was done by a specific laboratory and the cost was fixed at a higher price point. This is because testing one or two samples was more costly than testing several samples. So how much is DNA testing? DNA Testing Choice provides a listing for every DNA test that you can buy online to take at home and displays each DNA test price. Prices for each test, whether for paternity, for health, or for ancestry are listed by category. Some labs are located in Europe and Canada, but there are plenty of laboratories throughout the US."

Photograph: Lee Jae-won/Reuters While malnutrition is widespread in North Korea, the restaurant scene in Pyongyang is thriving. It is never a problem to find a really good meal if you can afford it – and you know where to look. The newer, semi-private eateries tend to keep a low-profile, and often have their windows covered with heavy curtains. The signboards are also small, if not absent, so outsiders would have few clues of the luxury inside. Most new restaurants have private rooms used for closed banquets of the bureaucrats and new rich – which are closely connected but somewhat different groups. In some cases they do not limit themselves to gastronomical pleasures: several places have a reputation for doubling as elite brothels. This was indirectly confirmed by official North Korean documents recently: when Jang Song Taek was purged in December 2013, the indictment mentioned both his fondness for private rooms in the expensive restaurants and his dalliances with women. For the average North Korean, restaurants are prohibitively expensive All these pleasures might appear cheap for a visiting foreigner, but for the average North Korean restaurants are prohibitively expensive. A dinner in a regular upmarket restaurant would cost about $7-10 (excluding alcohol), but the most expensive places charge around $30-40."

"text": "\"Re-examining the Rhetoric of the \"\"Cultural Border\"\" by Heewon Chang Eastern College This article was originally published in the Electronic Magazine of Multicultural Education. This essay examines the territory-based rhetoric of the cultural border, boundaries and borderlands. Critiquing the essentialist view that presumes fixed boundaries for a culture, the author suggests the constructivist view that assumes individuals power of defining and redefining their cultural identities in a multicultural society. The author illustrates different multicultural make-ups that a multiracial, an adoptee, a U. S.-born and an immigrant individual develop despite their common tie to Korea.border: the extreme part or surrounding line; the confine or exterior limit of a country, or any region or track of landboundary: a limit, a bound, anything marking a limitborderland: land on the frontiers of adjoining countries; land constituting a border (Websters New Universal Unabridged Dictionary,1979)Constructing a topology of a multicultural society is never simple. Although cultural diversity is often defined by seemingly clear-cut categories such as ethnicity, race, class, religion, gender, sexual orientation, and exceptionality1, sorting out \"\"culture\"\" intertwined with these multicultural categories is a complex process. I am not even sure whether anyone sees the value of taking on the challenge because different categories of people are considered synonymous with cultural differences. It is common to hear references to Asian-American culture, Black culture, Muslim culture, female culture, homosexual culture and ADD culture as if they have clear boundaries and are distinguished entities. It is also assumed that if an Asian meets an African-American their presumed cultural differences are expected to form a cultural border. Or if a White teacher has a group of minority children in her classroom, the formation of a cultural border between them is considered inevitable. However, if the focus switches from a society (or group) to individuals, the power of the cultural border rhetoric seems to lose its potency."

Jus soli ( Latin: the law of the soil) is the principle by which a child born within a country's territorial jurisdiction acquires that country's nationality. Jus sanguinis ( Latin: the law of the blood) is the principle by which a child acquires the nationality of his or her parents. Today, most if not all countries apply a mixture of these two principles: neither granting citizenship to everyone born within the country's jurisdiction, nor denying citizenship to the children born abroad. [ 1]Marriage [ edit]Many countries have in the past regarded marriage as an important status changing event in people's' lives and encouraged the special relationship that exists between spouses, sentiments which continue to be valued today. The common practice within and among states at the beginning of the 20th century was that a woman should have the nationality of her husband; i.e., upon marrying a foreigner the wife would automatically acquire the nationality of her husband, and lose her previous nationality, often with the reciprocal recognition by the other country. Even after the nationality of a married woman was no longer dependent on the nationality of her husband, legal provisions were still retained which automatically naturalised married women, and sometimes married men as well."

Renee Pittelli Whether we make the choice to cut ties with our abusive families, or they disown us, sooner or later many of us will face the dilemma of whether or not to allow our children to continue seeing our families even though we will not be included. This is a subject that many of us are conflicted over. I have probably had more conversations and received more e-mails about this one particular aspect of being estranged from our birth-families than any other. Some of us might be surprised to hear that we have the option of not allowing our families to have contact with our children. We’ve heard of “Grandparents’ Rights”, and some of our families have even threatened to sue us for visitation. Now, I am NOT a lawyer and I strongly urge you to consult with one if you have any doubts. However, my understanding of this issue is that if you were divorced or widowed and denying your ex-spouse’s parents visitation with your children, they could sue you for Grandparent’s Rights, and might or might not win. BUT, if you are denying YOUR OWN parents visitation, it is my understanding that the court will not go against you and what you feel is best for your children, knowing your own parents as you do."

But even if there were performance management shopping malls around, I’ll bet a lot of people wouldn’t find what they were looking for. And that’s simply because, they don’t really know what all these things actually are!Let’s explore these terms, and see if we can’t get some more clarity about how they are different from one another, and why. A measure is a quantification of something you can observe, such as the proportion of customers that have purchased from you more than once or the average time it took you to ship customer orders last week. Tip: If a measure is not measurable, then it can’t really be a measure. You’ve probably not made the “something” specific enough to measure. A performance measure is a type of measure that quantifies an important result, that impacts a business’ or organisation’s success. Performance measures are usually taken regularly over time, so that changes in performance can be determined. For example, as time goes by, does it take us less time or more time to ship customer orders?"

Key performance indicators (KPIs) play a role in nearly every organization. Any successful company wants to be able to meet their organizational objectives successfully—but that can be easier said than done. Not only do you have to select the KPIs that are appropriate for your industry (i.e., municipal KPIs aren’t going to work in the financial sector), you also have to figure out how to report on them appropriately and accurately. This can be a tough step, but it’s an undeniably important one. I’ve taken a sample KPI report—which is also commonly referred to as a KPI template or measure template—and described every element you need to implement at your own organization.

"text": "\"Using Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to Measure and Track the Success of Your Services Operation (Originally published in the September/October 2007 issue of AFSMI's Sbusiness )By William K. Pollock The concept of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) has been around for as long as many of us have been working in the services sector. However, each of our organizations may have a different understanding of their importance and use. In fact, the first hurdle for many service managers is gaining the proper understanding of exactly what KPIs are, and what they can do to help them run their service operations more efficiently. Definition of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) There are numerous definitions of KPIs available in business textbooks, through services trade associations, or on the Web, each comprised of their own keywords, buzzwords and, oftentimes, competitive branding. However, regardless of which definition you ultimately embrace, there are still some conventions that you will need to accept as well. Basically, KPIs are tools that may be used by an organization to define, measure, monitor, and track its performance over time toward the attainment of its stated organizational goals. The Free Dictionary.com defines Key Performance Indicators as \"\"a set of quantifiable measures that a company or industry uses to gauge or compare performance in terms of meeting their strategic and operational goals\"\". It goes on to say that \"\"KPIs vary between companies and industries, depending on their priorities or performance criteria\"\". For example, the services industry may evaluate itself on the basis of KPIs such as annual revenues, year-to-year trends, or growth in the size of the mobile workforce, etc. ; while each of the services organizations that comprise the industry may look more to KPIs that measure specific areas of performance such as Mean Time to Repair (MTTR), First-Time Fix Rates, customer satisfaction indices, etc."

"text": "\"Search all Project Times Articles Measuring In-progress Project Performance Written by George Pitagorsky Measuring performance is a critical factor in optimizing performance. Optimal performance is sustainably achieving multiple, often conflicting, objectives under changing conditions. Project performance, on the surface, seems easy to measure; just track time, cost and scope and it’s done. But when we look more deeply we find that it is not that simple. First, we find that there is confusion about what we actually want to measure. Is it the success of a single project, the success of project performance across many projects, or the success of project management and a project office? If our objective is to measure the success of a single project, are we looking at the project during its life or at the project after it has been completed? Once we determine what we really want to evaluate we can identify the key performance indicators (KPIs) that will tell us whether we have been or are being successful or not and to what degree. KPIs give managers the most important performance information to enable them to assess the performance of a project or process. Generally we look for from two to five or so indicators."

I was prompted to write this post since I was recently discussing OGSM with one of our Expert members who was using it to get buy-in for how their digital transformation initiative linked to their business vision and objectives. I think OGSM is a great tool since it's a simple way to show the importance of aligning strategy with goals and then putting in place measurement to check you're on track and can be agile to adjust tactics to meet the broader objective.

Studying the “right” sales performance metrics lets sales managers determine which reps are struggling and in which areas they need coaching help with. Unfortunately, a lot of sales managers still struggle with identifying the “right” metrics and typically fall back on traditional basic metrics such as # of activities. Here are 3 key categories of “right” sales performance metrics that you should measure for your sales reps. ( For even more detailed information about measuring sales metrics, check out our FREE e Book: The Right Metrics for Your Inside Sales Team .)1. Activity Metrics# of Activities (e.g. Dials)Sales is a function of the number of right activities. This Key Performance Indicator (KPI) answers how many dials your reps made or how many appointments or demos they scheduled. Activity Results vs. Activity Goals This sales performance metric identifies how your reps are performing in a given period of time compared to their individual activity goals. This is necessary because it helps: Identify if reps are moving toward activity goals, measuring their activities juxtaposed with goals. Informs whether monthly or yearly goals are too easy or too aggressive."

"text": "KPIS In Customer Relationship Management00A CRM Key Performance Indicator (KPI) is a standard measurement used to evaluate the process of delivering satisfaction to all of the customer needs from your organization. KPIs can be set up across key activities that are critical to the satisfaction of the customer. When performance falls below a required level, management can begin the process of analyzing the cause and taking corrective action. Since the customer decides who to do business with, these KPIs become imperative to retaining the customer. Customer Satisfaction – The Most Important KPICustomer satisfaction is the ultimate measurement of the success of your business. Without the customer there are no revenues and no reason for your business. Your purpose is to provide a product or service that the customer values beyond that of your competitors. Flying Blind is Not the Answer A business that does not measure its success in each aspect of its customer deliverables is just asking to fail. You may have a vision of excellent customer service, but one rude customer support agent, or a botched product installation can mean the end of a lifetime relationship. And if you don’t even know where the customer disappointment occurs, the problems will never be solved."

Founders are magpies, chasing the shiniest new thing they see. Many of us use a pivot as an enabler for chronic ADD, rather than as a way to iterate through ideas in a methodical fashion. That means it’s better to run the risk of over-focusing (and miss some secondary metric) than it is to throw metrics at the wall and hope one sticks (the latter is what Avinash Kaushik calls Data Puking . ) That doesn’t mean there’s only one metric you care about from the day you wake up with an idea to the day you sell your company. It does, however, mean that at any given time, there’s one metric you should care about above all else. Communicating this focus to your employees, investors, and even the media will really help you concentrate your efforts. There are three criteria you can use to help choose your OMTM: the business you’re in; the stage of your startup’s growth; and your audience. There are also some rules for what makes a good metric in general. First: what business are you in?"

It is easy to obsess over the obvious numbers like monthly or quarterly revenue or close rates. Unfortunately, those numbers simply give you the “final score,” without telling you anything about how your team played the game. If you want to improve the way your team plays the game and boost the score in the future, you need to be paying much closer attention to another set of numbers, namely, the Key Performance Indicators (KPI) that give you insights into how well each member of your team is actually playing. What are KPIs? While the term KPI is commonly used, it doesn’t mean it is always well understood. Something can be defined as a Key Performance Indicator when: It is KEY to the success of your organization. For example, is the number of sales contacts per week important to the success of your organization? It is related to PERFORMANCE when it can be clearly measured, quantified and easily influenced by the members of your team. For example, do you have a benchmark that tells you that when a sales maker makes at least 5 contacts with Executive level decision makers during a sales cycle the value of the final deal will go up by 40%?"

Often companies want to improve different aspects of their business all at once, but can’t put a finger on what will measure their progress towards overarching company goals. Does it come down to comparing the growth of last year to this year? Or, is it just about the cost of acquiring new customers? If you’re nervously wondering now, “wait, what is my cost per deal?”, don’t sweat it. Another growing pain of deciding on KPIs is discovering that there is a lot of missing information. Defining Your KPIs Choosing the right KPI is crucial to make effective, data-driven decisions. If you choose the right KPI, it will help to concentrate the efforts of employees towards a meaningful goal, however, choose incorrectly and you could waste significant resources chasing after vanity metrics.

"text": "PCOS: Preparing for Your Oral Glucose Tolerance Test Posted under Health Guides. Updated 25 May 2016. Key Facts If you have PCOS and you’re getting ready to have an oral glucose tolerance test, you may be wondering how to prepare for the test and what the results may mean. The test can help your health care provider figure out whether you have a high risk of developing diabetes and whether lifestyle changes and medications such as Metformin might be helpful in treating your PCOS. What is Glucose? Glucose is a type of sugar and the main source of energy used by your body. The glucose that your body uses for energy comes from many kinds of foods called carbohydrates, such as cereal, bread, rice, pasta, and other grains, not just sugary foods. Dairy products, fruits, and vegetables all contain carbohydrates as well. Your body uses the glucose it needs and then stores the rest as “glycogen” in your liver and muscles.

However, most clinics agree that they pay more for technicians with a board certification. If you’ve been trying to get into a larger clinic, a research facility, or a university, you’re more likely to be hired with a certification.

Ladybugs are usually distinguished by color and the number of spots on the wing case. The most common beetle of this family is the \"\"Sevenspotted Lady Beetle\"\" (Coccinella septempunctata, see the pictures above) whose coloration is very constant. It has a red base color with seven black spots on the wing case. The species Adalia bipunctata (Twospotted Ladybug) on the other hand has a very variable coloration: The normal coloration is a red base color with two ( Bi punctata) black spots, but there are two \"\"inverted\"\" variations with black base color and either four or six spots (see the pictures above of Adalia bipunctata). Although they don't have the same number of spots they still belong to the same species. The red variant is more likely to survive the winter whereas the black variant is capable of propagating itself faster than the red variant. This results in more red variants (and less black variants) in the spring and more black variants (and less red variants) in the fall.

Coccinellids are found worldwide, with over 6,000 species described.

Entomologists widely prefer the names ladybird beetles or lady beetles as these insects are not classified as true bugs.

"text": "The Fascinating Reason Why Ladybugs are Called That April 8, 2015 Karl Smallwood 10 comments Ladybugs, sometimes known as Ladybirds and less commonly Lady Beetles, are a rarity in the insect world in that they’re one of the few creepy crawly insects we as a species don’t actively dislike, due to their habit of eating the things that destroy our crops. But just how did this little insect get such a strange name? To start, while many members of the Coccinellidae family are colloquially known as “ladybugs” in a number of places in the states, technically speaking they aren’t considered to be true bugs. It’s more fitting to instead refer to them as beetles. While it’s certainly true that ladybugs possess several key qualities that bugs share, to be classified as a true bug, a given insect must also possess “sucking, beak-like mouth parts and go from egg to nymph, to adult, with no larva stage”. The ladybug neither has the correct mouth parts nor skips the larval stage, so can’t fall under this category. Instead it is, as mentioned previously, a member of the beetle family, a group of insects characterised by hard “ shell-like ” exteriors that often hides a set of delicate wings. However, the interesting part here isn’t the “bug” part of “ladybug” name or the “bird” part of the other common name- “ladybird”, with these being somewhat obvious in their origins. The less obvious part is why these tiny voracious beetles have the word “lady” in their name. At first glance, there doesn’t appear any particular reason why this should be the case; the beetles don’t seem to possess any qualities associated with the fairer sex."

Lupines bloom in early spring through midsummer, depending on variety.3Cut back flower stems to the plant's basal foliage after reblooming to discourage the formation of seed pods. Lupines self-seed vigorously. In the case of hybrid garden lupines, seedlings are usually not true to the parent plant. In the case of native varieties, they can be aggressive, with tree lupines (L. arboreus) considered invasive outside of the San Francisco Bay area counties. Native varieties planted near each can other cross-pollinate, producing seedlings with muddy, unattractive blooms.4Examine flowers, stems and leaves for aphids -- tiny white insects -- or their damage -- misshapen, brown foliage and blooms."

A typical life cycle involves flightless females giving living birth to female nymphs without the involvement of males. Maturing rapidly, females breed profusely so that the number of these insects multiplies quickly. Winged females may develop later in the season, allowing the insects to colonise new plants. In temperate regions, a phase of sexual reproduction occurs in the autumn, with the insects often overwintering as eggs. The life cycle of some species involves an alternation between two host plants, for example between an annual crop and a woody plant. Some species feed on only one type of plant, while others are generalists, colonising many plant groups."

Full Answer The wooly bear caterpillar emerges from the Isabella tiger moth and is found in various cold regions throughout the world, including in the Arctic. The larva of the caterpillar emerges from the egg during the fall of the year, and then it overwinters and freezes solid in the caterpillar form. Once spring arrives, it thaws out and emerges. Once it has emerged as a moth, it has a few days in which it must find a mate."

[ 4]They are commonly yellow, orange, or red with small black spots on their wing covers, with black legs, heads and antennae. However such colour patterns vary greatly. For example, a minority of species, such as Vibidia duodecimguttata, a twelve-spotted species, have whitish spots on a brown background. Coccinellids are found worldwide, with over 6,000 species described. [ 5] [6]Coccinellids are known as ladybugs in North America, and ladybirds in Britain and other parts of the English-speaking world. Entomologists widely prefer the names ladybird beetles or lady beetles as these insects are not classified as true bugs. [ 7]The majority of coccinellid species are generally considered useful insects, because many species prey on herbivorous homopterans such as aphids or scale insects, which are agricultural pests."

A: Quick Answer Adult ladybugs and larvae can be found living in gardens, agricultural fields, wooded areas and on plants that are frequented by aphids, which are a primary source of food for many species. The beetles hibernate during winter months in clusters normally found under rocks, debris and leaf litter, but may also aggregate in homes if they can get in through cracks or crevices. They may begin to appear indoors in the autumn months when they leave their summer feeding areas in search of an insulated place to hibernate.

"text": "Ladybug Egg Information: What Do Ladybug Eggs Look Like Printer Friendly Version Image by GKH Nikki Tilley, ANATOL ADUTSKEVICHBy Amy Grant Lady beetles, ladybugs, ladybird beetles or whatever you can them, are one of the most beneficial insects in the garden. The process of getting to be an adult ladybug is somewhat convoluted and requires a four stage life cycle process known as complete metamorphosis. Because you want to encourage ladybugs in the garden, it’s good to know what ladybug eggs look like as well as familiarize yourself with ladybug larvae identification so you don’t accidently do away with one. Ladybug Egg Information The first stage in becoming a ladybug is the egg stage, so let’s absorb a little ladybug egg information. Once the female has mated, she lays between 10-50 eggs on a plant that has plenty of food for her children to eat once hatched, usually a plant infested with aphids, scale or mealybugs. Over the course of the spring and early summer, one female ladybug can lay up to 1,000 eggs. Some scientists think that ladybugs lay both fertile and infertile eggs within the cluster. The supposition is that if food (aphids) is in limited supply, the young larvae can feed on the infertile eggs. What do ladybug eggs look like? There are many different species of ladybug and their eggs look slightly different."

The ladybird is best known for it's spotted body (normally red and black, but often orange and yellow are found), and their ability to rid gardens of their aphid pests affectively. It is thought to be good luck to find that a ladybird has landed on you, and most definitely bad luck if you then squash it!Ladybirds are small sized insects rarely growing to more than a centimetre in length. Ladybirds have size legs that are black in colour and their brightly coloured shell, protects the wings of the ladybird which are concealed beneath the spots. Ladybirds are known to hibernate once the warm summer weather begins to cool. Ladybirds will hibernate in large groups in sites which are used year after year, and ladybirds are thought to hibernate in this communial fashion in order to increase their chances of surviving the cold winter. It is thought that pheromones are released by hibernating ladybirds which attract other ladybirds to hibernate in the same place. Ladybirds are fearsome predators within their environment and are known as gardener's friends as they munch all of the tiny pests that eat the plants. Ladybirds primarily eat aphids, greenfly, plant-lice and other small insects."

There are around 6,000 species of ladybugs worldwide, 98 of which can be found in Florida. Ladybugs are oval, small, often brightly-colored insects that are toxic to would-be predators. Ladybugs are considered beneficial because they typically eat plant pests, such as aphids. The beetle’s oval yellow eggs hatch larvae that have been described as looking “alligator-like.” Some larvae may excrete a white substance that makes them look similar to mealybugs (see picture below). These larvae then pupate to move on to their adult stage we recognize as ladybugs. There is a wide variety of adult ladybug appearances. Some are red with black spots; some black with red spots; and some even have no spots and are solid black, orange, or red. The different ladybug species in Florida feed on the following: Aphids Mealybugs Mildews Mites Scale insects Whiteflies Ladybugs also eat flower nectar, water, and honeydew excretions if prey is scarce."

To be classified as such, morphs must occupy the same habitat at the same time and belong to a panmictic population (one with random mating). [ 2]Three mechanisms may cause polymorphism: [3]Genetic polymorphism – where the phenotype of each individual is genetically determined A conditional development strategy, where the phenotype of each individual is set by environmental cues A mixed development strategy, where the phenotype is randomly assigned during development Polymorphism as used in zoology and biology involves morphs of the phenotype, and the term polyphenism can be used to clarify that the different forms arise from the same genotype. The term genetic polymorphism is also used somewhat differently by geneticists and molecular biologists to describe certain mutations in the genotype, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (with detection methods RFLPs and amplified fragment length polymorphism ), that may not always correspond to a phenotype, but always corresponds to a branch in the genetic tree. See below. Polymorphism is common in nature; it is related to biodiversity, genetic variation, and adaptation; it usually functions to retain variety of form in a population living in a varied environment. [ 4]: 126 The most common example is sexual dimorphism, which occurs in many organisms. Other examples are mimetic forms of butterflies (see mimicry ), and human hemoglobin and blood types. According to the theory of evolution, polymorphism results from evolutionary processes, as does any aspect of a species."

Sometimes called ladybirds, there are more than 500 kinds of ladybugs in the United States alone. Beneath their polka-dot exterior, ladybugs have a set of wings that allows them to fly. Elytra Like most beetles, ladybugs have a tough shell protecting their delicate wings called the elytra. In the case of the ladybug, the elytra is colored from red to yellow with black spots. Ladybugs can have anywhere from 2 to 13 spots decorating their shell. The reason they have such a colorful exterior is to warn off would-be predators, since ladybugs have a bitter taste. Taking Flight The elytra are hinged to the pronotum, the section just beneath the ladybug’s head. When the ladybug flies, the elytra lift up to allow the gossamer wings beneath to unfold."

The ladybug's eggs are laid, and they usually hatch 2-5 days after they are laid. The second stage is the Larvae Stage. When the eggs hatch the larvae will come out and start looking for food. They will usually look for small mites or aphids. A few days later, the larvae will begin to shed their skin, this is called molting, they will continue to molt until they are finished growing. The third stage is the Pupa Stage After about 2 weeks of being larvae the ladybug will turn into the pupa stage.

Weakened plants can fail to bloom or yield fruit, lose leaves, and eventually die. The original cause of these problems often comes from the infestation of the tomato plant by aphids or spider mites. These insects literally suck the sap from the plant, causing malnutrition and a weakened state. Ladybugs are nature's way of preventing this occurrence. Natural Function Ladybugs are predator insects. These bugs feed on various other insects found on or near tomato plants, including aphids, spider mites and ants. Since both mites and aphids reproduce quickly to establish large colonies, ladybugs have become the natural balance to keep these insects from overpopulating an area. Benefits Having beneficial predator insects such as ladybugs and lacewing moths helps reduce and eventually eliminate aphid or spider mite colonies. A side benefit is the reduction or relocation of ant colonies nearby because ants use aphids in the production of honeydew."

But farmers love them for their appetite. Importance to Farming Most ladybugs voraciously consume plant-eating insects, such as aphids, and in doing so they help to protect crops. Ladybugs lay hundreds of eggs in the colonies of aphids and other plant-eating pests. When they hatch, the ladybug larvae immediately begin to feed. Population Ladybugs are also called lady beetles or, in Europe, ladybird beetles. There are about 5,000 different species of these insects, and not all of them have the same appetites. A few ladybugs prey not on plant-eaters but on plants. The Mexican bean beetle and the squash beetle are destructive pests that prey upon the crops mentioned in their names."

"text": "The Fascinating Reason Why Ladybugs are Called That April 8, 2015 Karl Smallwood 10 comments Ladybugs, sometimes known as Ladybirds and less commonly Lady Beetles, are a rarity in the insect world in that they’re one of the few creepy crawly insects we as a species don’t actively dislike, due to their habit of eating the things that destroy our crops. But just how did this little insect get such a strange name? To start, while many members of the Coccinellidae family are colloquially known as “ladybugs” in a number of places in the states, technically speaking they aren’t considered to be true bugs. It’s more fitting to instead refer to them as beetles. While it’s certainly true that ladybugs possess several key qualities that bugs share, to be classified as a true bug, a given insect must also possess “sucking, beak-like mouth parts and go from egg to nymph, to adult, with no larva stage”. The ladybug neither has the correct mouth parts nor skips the larval stage, so can’t fall under this category. Instead it is, as mentioned previously, a member of the beetle family, a group of insects characterised by hard “ shell-like ” exteriors that often hides a set of delicate wings. However, the interesting part here isn’t the “bug” part of “ladybug” name or the “bird” part of the other common name- “ladybird”, with these being somewhat obvious in their origins. The less obvious part is why these tiny voracious beetles have the word “lady” in their name. At first glance, there doesn’t appear any particular reason why this should be the case; the beetles don’t seem to possess any qualities associated with the fairer sex."

"text": "One consequence of globalization is that in addition to people and products moving across the globe, wildlife has been transported as well. This practice of transporting animals from their native regions to new areas dates back thousands of years. The Roman Empire frequently brought back animals from foreign lands to use for entertainment in the Colosseum or used them for military purposes. 1 The practice was also a common part of European explorations of the New World, as explorers would bring back novel specimens to their home countries for zoological examinations or to arouse interest in future expeditions. In many cases, the transplanted animal or plant does not thrive in its new environment. A lack of proper food sources combined with the wrong climate can make for a short lifespan for the animal in its new home. In other cases, however, the specimen thrives and is able to successfully reproduce and spread throughout its new habitat. When this happens, the plant or animal can wreak havoc on the new area and become an invasive species. What Makes a Species Invasive? Introducing a species into a new environment may have a variety of outcomes."

The majority of the extant vertebrates are the jawed vertebrates, or gnathostomes, but lampreys are jawless vertebrates. However, in Late Silurian or Early Devonian times, about 420 to 400 million years ago, the situation was reverse, and the majority of the vertebrate species were jawless fishes (the \"\"ostracoderms\"\", presumably more closely related to the gnathostomes than to lampreys). The decline of the jawless vertebrates and the subsequent rise of the gnathostomes took place about 380 million years ago. Extant vertebrates comprise two clades: the Hyperoartia, or lampreys, and the Gnathostomata, or jawed vertebrates. In addition, there is a number of taxa of fossil jawless vertebrates which were formerly referred to as the \"\"ostracoderms\"\" (\"\"shell-skinned\"\") because most of them possess an extensive, bony endo- and exoskeleton.

Like salmon and alewife, sea lamprey are native ocean fish that spawn in fresh water. Historically, sea lamprey have inhabited Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River, as they are open to the Atlantic Ocean. In 1921, lampreys appeared in Lake Erie for the first time, arriving via the Welland Canal, which was constructed for ships to avoid Niagara Falls on their way up the St. Lawrence Seaway. Shortly thereafter, sea lamprey quickly populated all of the upper Great Lakes. The sea lamprey is an aggressive parasite with a toothed, funnel-like sucking mouth and rasping tongue, which is used to bore into the flesh of other fishes to feed on their blood and body fluids. A single lamprey will destroy up to 40 pounds (18 kilograms) of fish during its adult lifetime. Sea Lamprey are so destructive that, under some conditions, only one out of seven fish attacked will survive. In the 1940s and 1950s, sea lamprey populations became excessive in the Great Lakes, which contributed significantly to the collapse of fish species that ere an economic mainstay of a vibrant Great Lakes fishery. Sea lamprey attached to a lake trout Currently the Great Lakes Fishery Commission, in cooperation with Fisheries and Oceans Canada and U. S.

And for 90 per cent of our time on Earth, that was how things worked. Then the emphasis shifted. We learned to live instead with waves of energy, making sense of chaos, and becoming conscious. Which, of course, was a good thing ... but we need now to go back and pick up some useful talents that we abandoned on the way."

They are the only known living animals that have a skull but no vertebral column, although hagfish do have rudimentary vertebrae. [ 3] Along with lampreys, hagfish are jawless; they are the sister group to vertebrates, and living hagfish remain similar to hagfish from around 300 million years ago. [ 4]The classification of hagfish had been controversial. The issue was whether the hagfish was a degenerate type of vertebrate-fish that through evolution had lost its vertebrae (the original scheme) and was most closely related to lampreys, or whether hagfish represent a stage that precedes the evolution of the vertebral column (the alternative scheme) as is the case with lancelets. Recent DNA evidence has supported the original scheme. ["

Langerhans cells, which help regulate the immune system, are normally found throughout the body, especially in the skin, lymph nodes, spleen, lungs, liver, and bone marrow. In Langerhans cell histiocytosis, excess immature Langerhans cells usually form tumors called granulomas. Many researchers now consider Langerhans cell histiocytosis to be a form of cancer, but this classification remains controversial. In approximately 80 percent of affected individuals, one or more granulomas develop in the bones, causing pain and swelling. The granulomas, which usually occur in the skull or the long bones of the arms or legs, may cause the bone to fracture. Granulomas also frequently occur in the skin, appearing as blisters, reddish bumps, or rashes which can be mild to severe. The pituitary gland may also be affected; this gland is located at the base of the brain and produces hormones that control many important body functions. Without hormone supplementation, affected individuals may experience delayed or absent puberty or an inability to have children (infertility). In addition, pituitary gland damage may result in the production of excessive amounts of urine (diabetes insipidus) and dysfunction of another gland called the thyroid."

TAYLOR* Departments of Pathology, Marshfield Clinic, Wisconsin, USA, and * Health Sciences Centre, University of Manitoba, Canada Keywords Prepuce, embryology, development, anatomy, function, circumcision, histology Introduction The prepuce is a common anatomical structure of the male [ 1] and female [ 2] external genitalia of all human and non-human primates; it has been present in primates for at least 65 million years, and is likely to be over 100 million years old, based on its commonality as an anatomical feature in mammals [ 3 ] Certain cultures have excised the prepuce from children to conform to societal standards, while other cultures accept the complete external genitalia as normal (Fig. 1). The motives for circumcision in preliterate cultures are difficult to define, but include rites of passage, blood sacrifices and cultural markings [ 4 ]. Ritualistic, childhood genital surgery has become popular in the last several thousand years, making the prepuce the most vilified normal anatomical structure of the human body. Rather than acknowledging the prepuce as normal anatomy, some contemporary physicians consider the penile [ 5] and clitoral prepuce (or clitoral hood) [ 6,7] to be dangerous and unhealthy. However, before theoretical justifications for circumcision can be considered, a complete understanding of the normal anatomy and function of the prepuce is required. This paper reviews the embryology, anatomy and function of the prepuce. Fig. 1. A Japanese fertility festival at Nagoya; note the banner with ridged bands (arrow) of the prepuce emanating from the frenulum (photograph by Dr R. Brinsko and G. Craigmyles)."

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Science Biology Biochemistry Hormones What does insulin do? Flag What does insulin do? Answer by Steverapaport Confidence votes 3.0KYour cells cannot use glucose without insulin, a hormone secreted from the beta cells in the pancreas. Insulin helps the cells take in glucose and convert it to energy. When the pancreas does not make enough insulin (type I diabetes) or the body is unable to use the insulin that is present (type II diabetes), the cells cannot use glucose, and they begin to starve. Excess glucose builds up in the bloodstream, setting the stage for diabetes. Insulin affects several organs and tissues to promote glycogen storage and laying down of fat. Glucose, some amino-acids, and to a much lesser extent fat all promote insulin release. In the liver, insulin increases glucose transport into the liver from the blood, and the synthesis of glycogen. In muscle the effects are similar and in fact the amount of glucose taken up by muscle is a significant contributor to the total glucose disposal rate (GDR)."

They are named for the German physician Paul Langerhans, who first described them in 1869. The normal human pancreas contains about 1,000,000 islets. The islets consist of four distinct cell types, of which three (alpha, beta, and delta cells) produce important hormones; the fourth component (C cells) has no known function. The islets of Langerhans are responsible for the endocrine function of the pancreas. Each islet contains beta, alpha, and delta cells that are responsible for the secretion of pancreatic hormones. Beta cells secrete insulin, a well-characterized hormone that plays an important role in regulating glucose metabolism. Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc. The most common islet cell, the beta cell, produces insulin, the major hormone in the regulation of carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism. Insulin is crucial in several metabolic processes: it promotes the uptake and metabolism of glucose by the body’s cells; it prevents release of glucose by the liver; it causes muscle cells to take up amino acids, the basic components of protein; and it inhibits the breakdown and release of fats. The release of insulin from the beta cells can be triggered by growth hormone (somatotropin) or by glucagon, but the most important stimulator of insulin release is glucose; when the blood glucose level increases—as it does after a meal—insulin is released to counter it."

In 1868, Paul Langerhans discovered the epidermal dendritic cells that now bear his name. The ultrastructural hallmark of the Langerhans cell, the Birbeck granule, was described a century later. The term Langerhans cell histiocytosis is generally preferred to the older term, histiocytosis X. This newer name emphasizes the histogenesis of the condition by specifying the type of lesional cell and removes the connotation of the unknown (\"\"X\"\") because its cellular basis has now been clarified. [ 1]Although the epidermal Langerhans cell has been presumed to be the cell of origin in LCH, recent studies have called this belief into question. Specifically, a variety of other cellular populations have been identified that possess phenotypic characteristics similar to Langerhans cells, including expression of CD207 and Birbeck granules. Therefore, in addition to epidermal Langerhans cells, other potential cellular origins for LCH include dermal langerin + dendritic cells, lymphoid tissue-resident langerin + dendritic cells, and monocytes that can be induced by local environmental stimuli to acquire a Langerhans cell phenotype. [ 2, 3]Notably, LCH cells have been found to express markers of both resting epidermal Langerhans cells (CD1a, intracellular major histocompatibility complex II [MHCII], Birbeck granules) and activated Langerhans cells (including CD54 and CD58). As a result, the pathologic cells of LCH have been hypothesized to represent Langerhans cells in a state of arrested maturation. [ 3] Taken together, these findings have led some to speculate that LCH is not a specific disease of epidermal Langerhans cells, but rather one of mononuclear phagocyte dysregulation. ["

As an endocrine gland the liver releases lipids, glucose, proteins, glycoproteins and glycolipids into the bloodstream. Major blood proteins such as albumin, fibrinogen, complement, transferrin, and the apoproteins of the lipoproteins, are synthesized and secreted by this organ.

Histiocytic Disorders and Rare Diseases – together we will find a cure!Histiocytosis is an umbrella term applied to a group of rare diseases, characterised by increased numbers of white blood cells called histiocytes in the blood and tissues. In all forms of histiocytosis, these cells, which are part of the protective immune system, begin to attack the body, targeting many organs of the body including the bone marrow, liver, spleen, lungs, skin, bone and brain. The prognosis for patients varies greatly depending on the form of histiocytosis. There are two main groups. The first group is called a dendritic cell disorder, and the most common disease in this group is Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) previously known as Histiocytosis X. Also included in this group are more rare diseases, juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) and Erdheim-Chester Disease (ECD). Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis, LCH for short, histiocytes called Langerhans cells, which are normally found in the skin, may spread to many organs and damage them, so that the symptoms vary depending on which organs are affected, but skin rashes, destruction of bone, breathing problems and damage to the brain are common. LCH occurs in children, often during infancy but also in adults. It is usually a chronic disease and may cause severe disabilities due to brain damage.

The bulk of the pancreas is composed of “exocrine” cells that produce enzymes to help with the digestion of food.

The main pancreatic duct runs the length of the pancreas and drains the fluid produced by the exocrine cells into the duodenum, the first part of the small bowel. The second functional component of the pancreas is the \"\"endocrine\"\" pancreas. The endocrine pancreas is composed of small islands of cells, called the islets of Langerhans.

At 1.8 square meters for the average adult, skin covers about as much area as a large closet, and accounts for 12-15% of total body weight. The incredible variation in skin — oily, moist, or dry, exposed to light and cold, or dark and warm — even on an individual, creates unique habitats for the thousands of bacterial and fungal species (called commensal microbiota) that live on our skin. The skin immune system may control skin microbes, but our skin commensals can also educate our immune system. How our skin orchestrates this dialogue with microorganisms and physical insult is integral to its function, and to our health. The skin is an immunologic organ. There are an estimated 20 billion T cells in human skin — far greater than the number of T cells in the blood — suggesting that immune defense in the skin is a high priority. The interaction among skin microorganisms and the immune system is likely not adversarial most of the time. Interestingly, the incidence of inflammatory skin conditions like atopic dermatitis in children has about doubled in the last thirty years, in parallel with the decreased exposure to microorganisms in early life.

No, we are not going to produce the next world record, nor will an angler catch a bass over 20 pounds, or even catch a five fish limit in a tournament that will surpass the 45 pound mark, as was done in a recent B. A. S. S. sponsored tournament in Florida. What New Jersey does have to offer is an overall quality fishery that continues to improve each year. Assunpink Lake Wildlife Management Area, one of New Jersey's \"\"Trophy Bass Lakes\"\", continues to produce largemouth bass in excess of 7 pounds every year. Tournament results from this lake show a 133% increase in the number of 5 pound bass. In 1999 there were 12 bass over 5 lb. caught and in 2000 there were 28. There were 19 tournaments held each year. Though Assunpink Lake ranks as one of the top lakes in New Jersey it is by far not the only lake. New Jersey has over 400 publicly accessible lakes ranging in size from .25 to over 2600 acres."

They will start to move up from deep water when the water temperature starts climbing above the 45 degree mark. Keep an eye on the weather. Warm rain warms up a lake faster than air temperature. Generally you will find largemouths in 2 - 12 feet of water. Start fishing for bass in the early spring in the Northwest corner of the lake or reservoir, where the water temperature will be slightly warmer than elsewhere on the lake. Concentrate on outside structure off spawning flats (points, logs, humps, rocks etc.). Look for bass in shallow creek arms with wood and weed cover after a warm rain. Other bass will still be deeper, associated with river channel points. Baits for Prespawn Fish the first emerging weeds and grasses with large spinnerbaits and jigs."

Young Florida Largemouth Bass eat almost anything they catch while adult bass, especially big inactive lunker bass, prefer a specialized high-protein diet of golden shiners, shad, crawfish and salamanders. Florida Largemouth Bass are known to consume small fish, insects, mosquitoes, black fly larvae, mayfly nymphs, worms, adult insects, mussels, crayfish, snails, tadpoles, frogs, small fish, salamanders, mice and turtles. In some cases, the prey is not completely swallowed up initially. It’s caught and held in the jaws and then it’s sucked in. It’s Important to Right Size the Bait The key to landing Florida Largemouth all day is not knowing what it will eat so much as what other fish in the area will eat as well. Spending hours catching small or garbage fish can turn a great day of fishing into a poor one rather quickly. Largemouth bass have a huge appetite and will try to get the largest prey possible in its mouth. If you know the sizes of the fish in your area, right size the bait accordingly. Feeding Around the Clock In general, Florida largemouth bass feed at all hours, but most often in the early morning or late in the day."

Fishing for largemouth bass is no less a hunt than is hunting deer, elk, bear or any \"\"above water\"\" wild game. It could be argued that hunting for and finding bass, then deciding what lure or lures to fish and how to \"\"present\"\" them so as to entice a strike, involves far more variables than hunting land game.

Jigs Jigs are a consistent bait to catch bass anytime of the year, and cold water is no exception. What really makes it shine is its versatility: The jig is just as comfortable pitched to lily pad stems in a shallow bay as it is slowly dragged off a break in 20 feet. I’m often trying to imitate a bluegill or a crawfish, and the jig matches the profile perfectly. Typically I favor jigs with a slow fall in cold water, and a 3/8 ounce Nemesis Baits Upskirt jig gets the nod most of the time. I usually opt for a “chunk” style trailer that gives off little action. As far as color goes, I keep it natural. Greens, browns, or possibly black/blue if the water is dirty."

The world record is by far the pinnacle of freshwater records, chased by every bass fisherman in the country. Big bass hunters of the trophy states (Texas, Louisiana, California, Arizona, Georgia, Florida) spend countless hours and money chasing that 25lb bass. Largemouth bass are a true predatory fish, many times hiding in the weeds to ambush prey. If you aren’t hooked on bass fishing, the first time you see that wake coming at a topwater you will stay awake at night thinking about it. Most of the time bass do not care what comes along; frogs, shad, minnow, brim, bluegill, snake, and the list goes on. Largemouth Bass are generally the most active and more catch-able when the water temp is between 65 and 75. But don’t limit your fishing to when the water temp is just right. Many professional and experienced fisherman will tell you the largest fish they catch are during periods of extreme heat and when the water gets colder (below 55degrees). The largest reason for this is that you really have to slow your presentation down and fish in such a way for any success at all, the likelihood of catching a lunker greatly increases than if you are ripping a spinner bait in perfect water temp, clarity and weather."

If you are a largemouth, smallmouth or spotted bass, the answer might be easy: anything that doesn't try to eat you first. That's good to know if you like to catch bass because with so many food choices, finding a lure that works is sometimes as easy as choosing one that looks good to you. Biologists who study largemouth bass sometimes examine the stomach contents of fish to learn more about them. John Odenkirk, a fisheries biologist with the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, says he looks at what bass eat to determine the health not only of an individual fish but all the bass that live in the same body of water. \"\" There are three things that determine the overall health of a lake's or pond's bass population: recruitment, which is how many baby bass grow to adults; growth, or how fast they grow and how healthy they are as they grow; and mortality. In other words, what kills bass, how long do they live, that sort of thing,\"\" he explains. \"\" By looking at the various foods in their stomachs, we can determine how well they are eating. If they aren't getting big fast enough, we might be able to help them out by providing more food. \"\" Biologists help bass eat better by stocking forage fish such as shad, herring or alewives in a lake that doesn't have enough food to help bass grow big."

"text": "Summer Secrets for BIG Bass By Vernon Summerlin Catching BIG bass this summer is no problem – at least not when anglers who have caught plenty of big bass are going to share some of their secrets about where and how they catch bass in the good ol’, hot ol’ summertime. First let’s have an understanding – when I say big, I’m talking about what has become the standard dividing line between basic bass and big bass, the five-pound mark on the scales. Cuba Landing Area of Kentucky Lake Billy Hurt Jr. (901-427-9153) says Cuba Landing gets moderate fishing pressure and there are a lot of bass in that area over five pounds. Cuba Landing is on the west side on the Tennessee River just north of I-40.“The success anglers have in this area depends a lot on the water level,” says Billy. Two dams, Pickwick Dam upstream and Kentucky Dam downstream control Kentucky Lake. If we have excess spring rains then the water will be 358 to 359 feet above sea level, which means there will be water in the bushes. Last year we had water in the bushes in the first part of July, but this year? You never know. But even if we don’t get water that high there are other places you can go to catch some big bass”The bushes are the first places to hit when the water is up. There are almost always some big fish in the shallows."

"text": "Bass Fingerling Facts & Pond-Stocking Info Posted: December 24th, 2014 by Bill Dance This year spring was a rollercoaster ride in my region, the Mid-South. Where last year spring weather came early, this year it came later with cold temperatures lingering a lot longer and we experienced lots of rainfall. Of course, largemouth bass fingerlings like it warm. Well, maybe better put: bass fingerlings thrive in warmer temps. In fact, largemouth bass fry growth is correlated with water temperatures. Maximum growth in largemouth bass fry occurs at temperatures of 81.5 to 86 degrees. This is why states in the South, with much longer growing seasons and these temps, have such large largemouth. Though no one has control over the weather fisheries biologists did discover a way to aid largemouth bass fingerlings in growth during the fall when water temps are lower. They introduced threadfin shad into many reservoirs. The introduction of threadfins gave the bass something that was the proper size for them to feed on in the fall."

Smith lake has an abundance of both spotted bass and largemouth bass. Both bass species can become very active as winter comes to an end and they begin their move towards shallow water in March. Smith Lake in March Very cold winters in Alabama can delay the largemouth spawn until April and even on into early May on Smith lake. But the spotted bass of Smith lake can become very active, fast, as water begin to warm in early March. Smith lake is a deep rocky lake. It does have an abundance of wood cover. It is not a lake that anglers will see very many aquatic growing weeds. Especially in March. As the lake’s deeper main lake waters warm, it takes time."

"text": "\"LARGEMOUTH BASS FEEDINGJim Porter A lot of bass anglers have become field experts on bass feeding behavior. In a day or two of a tournament, they can establish patterns of what types of structure the bass are holding on, the proper depths, the types of forage bass are eating, and lure speeds. Let's take a look at why some of these feeding patterns occur and why the largemouth bass might be considered the \"\"perfect predator. \"\" Like most predatory fish, bass have a large mouth and are very quick. Florida biologists told us: \"\"Various senses are used to locate prey, although bass feed primarily by sight. The location of their eyes creates a field of vision much greater than our own, since they can see in all directions except directly behind and below. The distance a bass can see depends largely on water clarity. Thus, in low light conditions, they must rely on other adaptations that sense sound or vibrations. Using \"\"inner ear\"\" structures and a highly developed lateral line system (which occurs as a series of sensory pores along each side of the fish), a bass can respond to water movement by sensing the vibrations or sound made by its prey. This is a probable reason why rattling lures or buzzbaits do well in very green or turbid lakes where water clarity is poor."

"text": "Some laxatives work quickly, within 15-30 minutes, and some take one or two days to work. You should drink plenty of fluid when you are taking laxatives (8-10 cups per day). Laxatives are usually taken for a few days until your bowel movements have returned to normal. A few people need to take them long-term. What are laxatives? Laxatives are a group of medicines that are used to treat constipation. They can be taken by mouth as liquids, tablets, or capsules, or they can be given via the back passage (rectum) - for example, suppositories, or enemas. Suppositories are pellet-shaped laxatives that are inserted into the rectum, via the anus. An enema is a liquid that is inserted into the rectum and lower part of the gut (bowel), via the anus. There are four main groups of laxatives that work in different ways."

Well, according to the US Food and Drug Administration that’s exactly what certain best-selling laxatives can do to you. Back in December of 2011, the FDA placed Mira LAX — a polyethylene glycol-containing blockbuster drug marketed by Merck & Co — on its Adverse Event Reporting System (AERS) in connection to “neuropsychiatric events .”Besides Mira LAX, this warning also applies to Movicol, Dulcolax, Colyte, Colovage, Co-Lav, Clensz-Lyte, Clear Lax, Go LYTELY, Gavi Lyte C, Glyco Lax, Go-Evac, Glyco Prep, E-Z-Em Fortrans, Halflytely, Lax-a-Day, Lax Lyte, Movi Prep, Macrogol, Nu Lytely, OCL, Peg-Lyte, Prep Lyte, Softlax, Tri Lyte, and all other brands with Polyethylene Glycol 3350 (PEG for short) as their active ingredient. The “3350” qualifier refers to the molecular weight of this particular variant of PEG. The cutout from the Mira LAX-related posting on the FDA's website [ 1 ]. Polyethylene glycol is made by stringing together molecules of ethylene glycol into a large polymer chain, hence the prefix poly-, Greek for many. On its own, ethylene glycol is used in automotive antifreeze and brake fluid. According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, it is an extremely toxic substance:“Ethylene glycol is chemically broken down in the body into toxic compounds. It and its toxic byproducts first affect the central nervous system (CNS), then the heart, and finally the kidneys."

"text": "\"Sorbitol, or glucitol as it is sometimes called, is a slow-metabolizing sugar alcohol derived from fruits, corn and seaweed. It's a sugar substitute found in foods such as frozen desserts, sugar-free chewing gum and diabetic candies. Sorbitol is only about 60% as sweet as sugar, however. It is also used as a thickener and moisturizer in beauty products. Since it's very slow to be metabolized by the body, sorbitol does not cause insulin levels to increase as much as sugar. It also doesn't lead to tooth decay and is used in many sugar-free cough syrups. It is a popular addition to gel toothpastes as it helps add transparency. Sorbitol is added to soaps, especially transparent glycerin bar soaps. It has moisturizing qualities and may be found in lotions and moisturizing soaps. The sugar alcohol has been used in cosmetic products for close to a century and is a Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) product by the United States Food and Drug Administration ( FDA )."

First, I want to let you know that you aren’t alone. Constipation is one of the most widespread medical conditions in the western world. There are an estimated 30% of individuals living with constipation. Though, this approximation may be on the low side, as many of those that suffer from constipation are too embarrassed to discuss it. The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) has stated that more than 4 million Americans suffer from constipation, every year. That comes to around 2.5 million visits to the doctor and about $725 million spent on over-the-counter laxatives. Since constipation affects women more than men, women made most of those doctor visits and purchases. These statistics are truly surprising, especially since these people live in some of the most advanced countries in the world, including US, UK and Australia. These individuals have access to the highest quality health care systems, and yet they still suffer high rates of chronic constipation."

It’s but natural to only think about the discomfort that goes on in your stomach. You cannot concentrate on your work. And that struggle every morning and evening in the hope of relieving yourself is quite a big one. You cannot even eat properly, everytime you do, you are reminded of how all that you are eating will add to the ongoing discomfort which you are not able to overcome. You can’t discuss with friends, and when you go to the doctor, he hands over a laxative to you. While you can always use laxatives for constipation, how far it is desirable to depend upon medicines? You can’t do it for the whole of your life. Therefore, you should first experiment with some home remedies to relieve you from constipation and then try to bring changes in your diet and lifestyle to avoid recurrence of constipation.

Which treatments you use depend largely upon how severe your cat's problem is, and whether it is an acute problem or a chronic problem. It is important to keep a close eye on your cat's litter tray and to deal promptly with any signs of constipation or straining. Obviously the ideal is to prevent constipation from ever happening, but that is not always possible. What is Constipation? Constipation means the cat has difficulty passing a stool. This can actually take many forms: The cat may not pass stool as frequently as before The cat strains in the litter tray Stools are hard and dry In the most severe cases, the cat does not pass stools at all. Eventually the stool becomes impacted, which is called obstipation. Cats with repeated constipation or obstipation may suffer from reduced motility related to a distended colon which can no longer push stool towards the rectum ready to be passed. This condition is called megacolon."

"text": "\"Tweet (Natural News) One of the most detrimental physical impediments to good health is inflammation - not the acute kind, which takes place as a result of physical injury or infection, but the chronic, long-term kind that affects body systems and internal organs, and causes the immune system to attack healthy cells, thereby creating a vicious cycle of continual inflammation. Regular health foodies and naturalists already know that wheat and other grains contain a gut irritant known as lectin, which in turn causes inflammation of the gut lining - not a good thing. The wheat lectin, also known as Wheat Germ Agglutinin, has been found to have a number of potentially ill effects besides causing inflammation. It may also be immunotoxic, neurotoxic, cardiotoxic and could interfere with gene expression, according to Medline. But new data indicates that other fruits, veggies and grains may contain just as much lectin as wheat and could be; therefore, equally damaging to your system. Inflammation and osteoarthritis common Sayer Ji, founder of Green Med Info.com, says tomatoes, rice and potatoes are particularly lectin-heavy. That's especially problematic, he says, because \"\"while the 'nightshade' (potato and tomato) connection with inflammation has been known about for quite some time anecdotally, rice has rarely been considered problematic and has become something of a poster child for the wheat/gluten free industry which often substitutes it for gluten-containing ingredients.\"\" \"\" The discovery that chitin-binding lectin is broadly distributed throughout cereal grasses sheds light on how the grain-free diet produces health results superior to that of eliminating wheat and gluten containing grains alone,\"\" he continued. These three foods are extremely prevalent in the West's diet, which could help explain another phenomenon: why the incidence of osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease, is so widespread, Ji says. It all begins with gluten, however. \"\""

One of the plant kingdom’s self-defense systems is lectins — proteins that seek out and bind to certain sugar molecules on the surface of cells Some — including wheat germ agglutinin found in wheat — bind to specific receptor sites on your intestinal mucosal cells and interfere with the absorption of nutrients across your intestinal wall Lectins are strongly associated with autoimmune disorders of all kinds, primarily by triggering leaky gut By Dr. Mercola Are you eating a healthy, whole food diet yet still struggle with weight gain and health problems? Part of the problem might have to do with lectins. Dr. Steven Gundry, 1 author of \"\" The Plant Paradox: The Hidden Dangers in 'Healthy' Foods That Cause Disease and Weight Gain ,\"\" makes a strong case for a lectin-free diet. While trained as a cardiothoracic surgeon, Gundry now specializes in treating patients holistically, focusing on food. He's been director of The International Heart and Lung Institute Center for Restorative Medicine for the past 17 years. Before that, he was a clinical associate at the National Institutes of Health, where he invented devices that reverse cell death associated with acute heart attacks. He's also been a professor of surgery and pediatrics at the Loma Linda School of Medicine and chairman of the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Loma University Medical Center."

Lectins found in grains, nuts, legumes and nightshade vegetables have been linked with digestive distress, leaky gut syndrome and chronic inflammation ( 1 , 2 , 3) . Find out how to minimize the damaging effects of lectins in your diet. Lectins are carbohydrate binding proteins that are present in both plants and animals ( 4 ). There role is to protect plant species and they also support immunological functions within their respective species ( 4 ). They are sticky molecules that bind sugars and cause functional shifts in the body. Lectins have been reported to damage the gastrointestinal lining and create states of chronic systemic inflammation ( 5 ). Lectins and Leaky Gut Syndrome: Lectins have been shown to bind with the intestinal lining and in particular the villi of the small intestine. The villi are the little pockets that nutrients flow into before they cross into the bloodstream. When the villi are damaged by the lectins the body is unable to effectively digest and absorb nutrients from the small intestine."

"text": "\"Over several decades, researchers have identified over 1,000 common foods that contain powerful proteins called lectins. Here's the key: These food lectins become active and important for you when they interact with your blood type. For example, after consuming any number of foods containing wheat, both blood types O and A can experience bloating and other digestive problems. This may be more than a simple \"\"food intolerance.\"\" The walls of the stomach and intestines are lined with sensitive receptors that interact with, and respond to, the lectin in wheat. At first, you may only experience that wheat lectin interaction as a mild digestive problem, or a dull, listless feeling after consuming foods not right for you. Over time, the result is a steadily deteriorating state of health, loss of energy and weight gain. The good news is, by removing these targeted foods and replacing them with foods more suitable for your blood type, you begin to experience the benefits of a leaner, cleaner, more energetic body. It's easy to overlook a common source of dietary lectins: So-called \"\"low calorie\"\" diet foods and other snack foods. Take a new look at the snacks or diet drinks and powders you may be using right now."

However, they may also have some health benefits.

Soy, kidney, navy, pinto, lima, fava, wax, castor, jack, string and field beans all contain lectins. Sweet peas, green peas, cow peas and horse grams are other sources of these proteins, as are lentil, mung bean or soybean sprouts. Fully cook your beans before eating them. Cooking and digestion destroy some, but not all, lectins. For example, the lectins in navy beans aren't fully destroyed during digestion.

That changed when we met with renowned heart surgeon, Dr. Steven Gundry, and got our hands on his new book, The Plant Paradox . Dr. Gundry has used a simple, but therapeutic diet on hundreds of patients in his private practice with some pretty astonishing results — and it’s all based on the notion that humans were never intended to eat the plant-based proteins called lectins. After reading The Plant Paradox cover to cover overnight and trying the diet for a few days ourselves, we can’t shake the notion that the lectin-free way of life might be as big a phenomenon as going “gluten-free” has been over the last five years.

It was originally thought that MBL deficiency resulted in an increased susceptibility to infections. However, low levels of this protein have been found in many healthy people.

"text": "Why Grains Are Bad–Part 1, Lectins and the Gut Nov 28, 2011 // by The Paleo Mom // 56 Comments The idea that grains are harmful is one of the most fundamental tenets of the Paleo diet. But, the rationale for avoiding them is often misunderstood, and sometimes oversimplified to the idea that early humans didn’t have access to significant quantities of grains, and therefore, we shouldn’t eat them either (an argument that’s hardly scientific and extremely easy to refute!). Actually, a large body of literature (as well as basic physiology and biochemistry) sheds light on how grains can harm us, and why replacing them with nutrient-dense Paleo foods can be a boon for our health. Here’s what we need to know!Grains have a particularly high concentration of two types of lectin. Lectins are a class of proteins that are present in all plant life to some degree (the gluten in wheat is a famous example). Two sub-classes of lectins, prolamins (like gluten) and agglutinins (like wheat germ agglutinin) are of particular concern for human health (see also Are all lectins bad? ( and what are lectins, anyway?) ). These “toxic” lectins are part of a plant’s natural defense system against predators and pests, and are usually concentrated in the seeds of the plant (which is why grains and legumes have so much). To defend itself, the seed from these plants either deter predators (like us) from eating them by making us sick or resist digestion completely or both. The grains and legumes that have become a part of the human diet since the Agricultural Revolution 10,000 years ago aren’t toxic enough to make most of us severely ill immediately after eating them (otherwise humans never would have domesticated them!)."

Updated Apr 26, 2013 · Author has 2.6k answers and 12.5m answer views The premise of the Paleolithic diet is that foods that are appreciably genetically distant from those we are used to consuming may cause unexpected problems and thus tomatoes aren't ideal from a paleo perspective. Tomatoes belong to the nightshade family and many of the other foods in that family are toxic when eaten raw. When humans begin eating a foreign food, sometimes it contains things that humans are not used to consuming and it can take an extremely long time for humans to evolve to adequately handle that. We haven't been eating tomatoes enough time for that to have occurred. That helps explain why other foods in the nightshade family contains some compounds that are harmful to health. To say it another way, it takes time for evolution to allow humans to adapt to new food groups and humans have not evolved to deal with some compounds present in the nightshade family. The nightshade family contains several commonly eaten foods [1] The most famous food members of the nightshade family include potatoes (Solanum tuberosum), tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum), many species of sweet and hot peppers (all species of Capsicum, including Capsicum annum), and eggplant (Solanum melongena)."

This is the anti-bean side. Scanned beans. On the other side is the fad-diet du jour, Tim Ferriss’s “ slow-carb diet ” as described in the bestselling The 4-Hour Body . Ferriss unabashedly recommends legumes. Indeed, he suggests eating beans or lentils with every meal (but forbids grains, fruit, and dairy products — except on the once-per-week “binge day,” during which all foods are allowed).

"text": "Home Blood Type and Nutrition Blood Type and Nutrition Written By: Steven Horne 3-12-2014 Categorized in: Solving Specific Health Problems One of the puzzling problems in working with nutrition is that individuals can react differently to the exact same diets and supplement plans. A nutritional program that produces positive benefits for one person may elicit a negative reaction from another. Fortunately, there are tools available to help us understand why this is the case and to help people find the appropriate program for their type. Research conducted by Dr. Peter D’Adamo and his father, Dr. James D’Adamo, demonstrated a strong correlation between a person’s blood type (O, A, B or AB) and the foods and supplements they need to consume for optimal health. Dr. D’Adamo has widely promoted this concept in several popular books, including Eat Right for Your Type and Live Right for Your Type (my personal favorite). In this article, I'll introduce you to the basic principles of the blood type diet and discuss some of the supplements that have proven beneficial for each type. Why the Blood Type? Dr. D'Adamo believes that the history of man holds the secrets to the blood type diet, since our blood type is a consequence of our genetic ancestry. The types of food that these ancestors adapted to provides the key to understanding why certain foods are genetically compatible with our bodies while others are not. The oldest blood type is Blood Type O. Blood Type O traces back to the hunter-gatherer peoples who subsisted primarily on meat and wild vegetables."

In his book, Eat Right for Your Blood Type, naturopathic doctor Peter D’Adamo, presents the idea that an individual’s blood type determines which foods are healthy for him and which foods are not. The book presents the anthropological origins of each of the four blood types and explains why each blood type developed specific antibodies against certain foods. Antibodies are proteins within the blood that identify and attack substances that are foreign to the body. Specific proteins called lectins are found in all foods. During digestion, lectins are released from the foods eaten. When they enter the blood stream, some of these lectins can bind to red blood cells causing them to stick together. This process is called agglutination. Dr. D’Adamo suggests this process causes many health problems such as stomach pains, poor digestion, headaches, diarrhea, liver disease, and kidney problems, and more.

Recently, microprocessor-controlled motor digital protective relays offer more comprehensive protection of motors. Due to the electromagnet in the contactor, if power to the machine should fail the contactor will automatically disengage. Unlike machines with an ordinary latching switch (such as a common light switch ), when the power is resumed the machine will not operate until being turned on again. As a result, magnetic starters often use momentary switches for \"\"off\"\" and \"\"on\"\" functions, as this type of switch returns to a defined normal position when released."

Contactors come in many forms with varying capacities and features. Unlike a circuit breaker, a contactor is not intended to interrupt a short circuit current. Contactors range from those having a breaking current of several amperes to thousands of amperes and 24 V DC to many kilovolts. The physical size of contactors ranges from a device small enough to pick up with one hand, to large devices approximately a meter (yard) on a side."

According to a new study, Canada has become the land of people glued to TV screens and tablets. A new report released by BBM Canada, the average Canadian adult watches a hefty 30 hours of television a week, which averages out to an average of four hours and 20 minutes of TV a day. Make your own connections to the inexorable rise in obesity among Canadians. But wait, there's more. According to a recent report by Media Technology Monitor, 58 per cent of Canadians said they have multitasked with an Internet-related device at the same time they're watching TV, and 26 per cent said they were always or almost always using the Internet while watching TV.

"text": "Replacing Your Hand Held Remote Having a remote starter installed in your vehicle is a great way to add convenience and comfort to your vehicle. To receive the best possible experience from your remote start system, it is important that you understand how your remote starter works and how to make sure your system functions properly so that you may enjoy it for years to come. General Remote Start Issues When you start your car by turning the ignition cylinder with the key, electrical signals are routed to the vehicle with each click in the turn. The goal of a remote start system is to duplicate the electrical signals being sent when a key is used to start the vehicle. In essence, the remote start system should start the vehicle just as a user turning a key would. If you hear your starter “grinding” during remote start or if it sounds like the starter isn’t staying engaged long enough, there are adjustments that can be made by your installation technician to correct this. If your vehicle starts properly but only runs for a short amount of time, this too can be corrected by the installation technician with minor programming adjustments. Our systems provide a multitude of adjustments that can be made to ensure that the remote start acts the same as “key-start”. If at any time you feel that the system is not performing correctly immediately bring the vehicle to your original installation technician or any other authorized dealer for corrections. The knowledgebase on this site includes references to these and other important questions as well as details regarding your remote start system."

Flight Controls Ailerons The ailerons are flap-like, movable surfaces attached to the trailing edge of each wing, extending from perhaps mid-wing out to near the wingtip on typical ultralights. They are rigged so that when one moves up, the other moves down. Aileron deflection causes the plane to roll about its longitudinal axis to produce a bank. A bank is required to make the aircraft turn right or left. A bank to the right gives a turn to the right, and vice versa. So, the ailerons play an important part in making the plane turn right or left."

"text": "Training Manual<< Go Back Comments / Suggestions Print friendly page Section 4: The Starting System4.1--An Overview of the Starting System The starting system converts electrical energy from the batteries into mechanical energy to turn the engine over. A malfunction within the starting system will make it difficult to get the engine running. In order to properly service the starting system, you need to understand how it operates. The starting system has five main components: the ignition switch or start button, a neutral safety switch (an option on some vehicles), the starter solenoid, the starter motor, and the batteries. When the key is turned in the ignition switch to the start position, or the start button is pushed, electricity flows from the batteries to the starter solenoid. Some vehicles are equipped with a neutral safety switch. If the vehicle is in gear when the key is turned, the neutral safety switch blocks the signal to the batteries, so the engine doesn't start cranking. Otherwise, the vehicle could jump forward or backward when the key is turned. The starter solenoid is an electromagnetic switch mounted on the starter motor. When coils inside the solenoid are energized by electricity, they create a magnetic field which attracts and pulls a plunger."

BAD GROUNDSIt’s standard: You overkill the positive side of the 12-volt circuit andignore the ground circuit. Basic electrical circuit design requires acomplete path back to the battery through the ground circuit, and if ithas high resistance, then the electrical device will operate poorly. Bad grounds happen everywhere, but the worst case is when guys relocatethe battery to the trunk, run a nice, thick multi-strand cable from thebattery to the starter solenoid, then merely bolt the ground cable tothe trunk floor or other easily accessible spot and leave it at that. Avoltage-drop test (see page 58) on that ground circuit will probablyreveal an inexcusable 1.5- or even 2-volt drop across the ground side ofthe circuit. The starter may crank when it’s cold, but not onceeverything warms up (remember, resistance increases with temperature). The fix is to either run a large ground cable all the way up to theengine, or a large ground from the battery to the frame and another fromthe frame to the engine. Another common grounding failure is an electric fuel pump pulling 4 to 5amps. We often see pumps wired with a small, 14-gauge positive cable andfurther crippled with a corroded piece of piano wire for a ground. Improve the ground circuit with a larger 12-gauge wire and ensure thatthe ground circuit offers no more than 0.1-volt drop and the fuel pumpwill run much more efficiently."

"text": "Science & Mathematics Biology How does the ligaments, cartilage, and the tendon work in your joints? Follow 3 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Ligaments hold bones together at joints. Cartilage covers the ends of bones at the joints and allows the them to slip smoothly over each other. Tendons attach muscles to bones, so the muscles' contractions can be transferred across the joints and pull on the bones. Source (s): Former anatomy teacher Asst Prof · 8 years ago1 1 Comment Tendons attach the muscles to the bones, which is handy because sometimes the attachment point is some way from the muscle - for example your hands - the muscles for your fingers are in your forearm. Your hand would be too bulky to use if it weren't connected up with strings. Cartilage forms a smoother bearing between the two ends of bones that touch. Without it they'd grind away. It's rather like slightly springy hard slippery plastic. Ligaments hold it all together - like tendons they're tough and not very stretchy strings, but instead of running from muscle to bone they run from bone to bone."

The result can be a dislocation of the AC joint. Sometimes this injury is referred to as a shoulder separation. The AC joint is located where the end of the clavicle (collar bone) meets the acromion. The acromion is a curved bone that comes from the shoulder blade across the top of the shoulder. The AC joint is fairly complex with its many ligaments and strong capsule holding everything together. Damage to any of these soft tissues can be severe enough to require a surgical repair. Deciding when to do surgery and what type of surgery is the focus of this article. Besides landing on the tip of the shoulder with enough force to disrupt the AC joint, there are two other ways this joint can be damaged."

This type of injury is sometimes called a high ankle sprain because it involves the ligaments above the ankle joint. In an ankle syndesmosis injury, at least one of the ligaments connecting the bottom ends of the tibia and fibula bones (the lower leg bones) is sprained. Recovering from even mild injuries of this type takes at least twice as long as from a typical ankle sprain. This guide will help you understandhow ankle syndesmosis injuries occurhow doctors diagnose the conditionwhat can be done to treat it Anatomy What part of the ankle is involved? A syndesmosis is a joint where the rough edges of two bones are held together by thick connective ligaments. The connection of the lower leg bones, the tibia and fibula, is a syndesmosis. The tibia is the main bone of the lower leg. The fibula is the small, thin bone that runs down the outer edge of the tibia. Only a few joints in the body are syndesmosis joints."

"text": "Back Muscles and Ligaments Prev NEXTThe bones of your spine would not be able to move or even hold themselves upright without the muscles and ligaments that surround them. An important part of understanding back pain is understanding how these structures work and how they can get injured. Back Ligaments Attached to all the bones and disks in the spine are long, cordlike structures called ligaments. Not as hard as bone but not as soft as muscle, these bands of connective tissue come in almost every size. Some are short, running only between adjacent bones, but some are very long, extending all the way down the length of the spine. The ligaments have several important functions. They provide support for the spine from the head down to the tip of the tailbone, holding disks and bones and muscles in their proper places. Their main function is to hold the bones together, allowing bending, twisting, and other movements to occur within safe ranges. Because ligaments are somewhat elastic, giving them the ability to stretch a little but not too much, they are perfectly suited for this task. When you bend over forward as far as you can, these ligaments reach the end of their length; they become taut, keeping the bones from moving apart any farther."

"text": "A lunotriquetral ligament is one of several bands of connective tissue that link the lunate and triquetral bones in the human hand. Two of the seven carpal bones clustered in the base of the hand just above the wrist, the lunate and triquetral are adjacent bones found near the ulna bone on the pinky-finger side of the hand. Along with the scaphoid bone, these two bones make up the proximal row of carpal bones, or those that articulate with the forearm bones to form the wrist joint. Between the lunate and the triquetral and running almost perpendicular to the forearm are the lunotriquetral ligaments, which fill the space between the lateral surface of the triquetral, the outermost of the two bones, and the medial surface of the lunate. Though the lunate and triquetral bones do not actually form a joint with the ulna, the articulations between the bones of the proximal row of carpals help them to function as a unit. The articulating surfaces are smooth and four-sided, and the joint between them, the intercarpal joint, is an arthrodial or plane joint. A synovial joint, this articulation allows for a small degree of sliding movement of the bones past each other. Ad Holding these intercarpal articulations together are three types of lunotriquetral ligament. Considered to be the strongest of the three, that which connects the lunate and triquetral on their posterior surfaces is the dorsal intercarpal ligament, running between the two bones in a direction almost perpendicular to that of the forearm. A similar ligament is found between the lunate and scaphoid bones as well."

Winging It A Musculoskeletal System Lab • How are the muscles and skeleton held together? • How do the muscles and bones work together to provide motion?2. Why do we dissect? Most “higher animals” have body plans very much like that of humans–four limbs, a head on top with two eyes and two ears, a torso with chest and belly, etc. We can expect that the more an animal is like us on the outside, the more it will be like us on the inside, too, and by dissecting another mammal or even a bird, we can gain an idea of what we ourselves are like on the inside.3.

The bones are the building blocks of the body. They support the surrounding muscles, connective tissues, etc. as well as providing protection for the major organs (for example: the cranium protects the brain, the ribs protect the lungs). The muscles are what attach to these bones allowing them to move in conjunction with one another. The muscle are attached to the bones by tendons. Muscles will contract and expand to move the bones.

"text": "Tendonitis.net About Tendons and Ligaments By Thomas Griner with Tamsin Lee For a long time it was thought that a tendon and the fascia of its corresponding muscle were all one continuous piece, because both are fibroblastic tendon cells, and because each fascicle in the muscle belly is identical to the fascicles in the corresponding tendon. With the advent of the electron microscope however, we were able to see that muscle endomysium is a separate entity with its own desmosome; i.e. the connective tissue, or fascia that wraps the muscle is not the identical tissue as the tendon issuing from the muscle, even though they are the same type cells. The Golgi tendon organ attaches to the tendon just at this point of union between the muscle and tendon. The GTO is actually attached to what has been, in the muscle, the endomysium surrounding the individual cell (except, as stated above, at that point the endomysium has run out and the tendon begun). However, the distinction of the endomysial layers around the muscle fibers, and the perimysial layers around the fascicles (which is not attached to the muscles, but forms a sheath around them), continues in the tendon. Therefore, tendons have the same logistical separation into fascicles as do muscles, for the same logistical reasons. Many book illustrations do not depict the endomysium – they show nothing around each of the individual muscle fibers, nor do they show the desmosomes separating muscle from tendon. Instead most show the tendon attaching directly to the muscle fibers, which is not possible. It is usually said that the while the muscle spindle is in parallel with the muscle, the Golgi organ is in series with it; actually, both the spindle and Golgi organ are in parallel. The muscle spindle is attached to the side of the perimysium, whereas the Golgi organ is attached to the side of the endomysial layer of the tendon."

Tendons may also attach muscles to structures such as the eyeball. A tendon serves to move the bone or structure. A ligament is a fibrous connective tissue which attaches bone to bone, and usually serves to hold structures together and keep them stable. A joint is where two or more bones come together, like the knee, hip, elbow, or shoulder. Joints can be damaged by many types of injuries or diseases,Cartilage is the tough but flexible tissue that covers the ends of your bones at a joint.

As a matter of fact, you don’t even have to be engaged in any exercise to suffer from a sprained ankle. It seems that even while minding your own business, an ankle sprain can occur. If you suffer from ankle sprain or are seeking to prevent its occurrence it is important to follow the information in this article. In addition, adding a few simple stretches to your fitness program will also help. To get started on a safe and effective stretching routine that’s just right for you, check out the Ultimate Guide to Stretching & Flexibility. Ankle sprain is commonly associated with sports that require a lot of running, jumping and change of direction. Excessive twisting or turning of the ankle joint results in a rupture of the ligaments that hold the ankle in place. I’ve had many requests for an article on sprained ankles, so to follow is the most comprehensive information I could put together. In fact, I found it hard to fit it all into one issue, so I’ve decided to split it into three parts."

Learn ways to treat it!A common injury that often happens while playing sports, especially ball games, is a sprained finger, which is an injury to the ligaments in the finger. Each finger is made up of three bones, known as phalanges, and two interphalangeal joints. These joints separate the bones from one another and allow your fingers to bend. Each joint has collateral ligaments that run along the side of them and connect the bones together. The thumb is made up differently, with just one joint and two bones, along with collateral ligaments. When any of the fingers is bent in a way causing damage to the ligaments, it will lead to finger sprain. Causes and Symptoms of Sprained Finger A finger sprain often occurs when your finger bends backwards or sideways while playing sports, resulting in injury.

"text": "Car Dashboard Warning Lights - What do they Mean? Modern cars are filled with electronics and packed with sensors to monitor both how your vehicle is behaving and to make our motoring life easier. But when something does go wrong, it can be a difficult task trying to work out exactly what that warning light flashing away on your dashboard is trying to tell you. It’s important to know what the car dashboard warning lights actually mean, though, not least because they can pre-empt a car breakdown or full-on failure, potentially saving you from an expensive repair bill and meaning you stay safer on the road. Here are the most important warning lights you should watch out for: Brake system / brake fluid warning light Your vehicle’s brakes are arguably the most important feature on your car, so if there’s a warning light flashing on your dash highlighting there’s something wrong with the braking system, it’s best to get it checked out right away. ECU / engine warning light If your engine warning light is illuminated, often it’ll be accompanied by some unusual symptoms – these could include a lack of power, as the car has gone into ‘safe’ mode to protect itself; an intermittent stuttering as you press the accelerator, caused by a misfire; or another fault which could alter the normal response from the engine. Sometimes this can be down to something as small as a faulty electrical sensor, although sometimes it can be a larger mechanical issue. If your car’s engine warning light is showing, get a professional mechanic to look over it straight away, as driving around any longer could cause further, and potentially irreparable damage. Airbag warning light The invention of the airbag was a major step forward in vehicle occupant safety, so if your car’s isn’t working properly, get it seen to. A faulty airbag potentially won’t go off in a crash, meaning you and your passengers won’t be as well protected from any potential injuries."

"text": "Car Advice & Auto Repair Help › Warning Lights › Brake Hydraulic System Warning Light Brake Hydraulic System Red Warning Light What does the brake hydraulic system warning light mean? An illuminated brake hydraulic system red warning light means that there is a problem with the brake hydraulic system. If the light is intermittent and seems to come on and off depending on whether the vehicle is turning, it may mean that the brake fluid level is getting low. If the brake hydraulic system red warning light comes on and stays on, this indicates that there is a persistent problematic issue with the brake hydraulic system. The warning light can come on when a change in system hydraulic pressure is detected. Can I drive with the brake hydraulic system warning light on? When the ignition key is rotated through the phases of Off, Run, Start, a brake systems bulb check is activated. Both the brake hydraulic systems red light and the parking brake light will illuminate. If there are no problems detected in the brake hydraulic system, the red light will go out after 1 to 2 seconds. If there is a problem detected, then the red light will stay on."

"text": "\"Pull forward please, I also want to turn July 23, 2013 11:47 AM Subscribe Why do so many drivers not move into the intersection when waiting to take a left turn on a green light? I often find myself behind a car that does not pull into the intersection on a green light when waiting for a break in oncoming traffic to make a left turn. Obviously that practice means that cars behind that car are less likely to be able to turn before the light turns red. Why is it that so many drivers engage in this practice despite it being inconsiderate to other drivers? Are they afraid for some reason of being in the intersection? Or were they not educated to do that? Or is there some other reason?posted by Dansaman to Travel & Transportation (138 answers total) 9 users marked this as a favorite You're not supposed to be out in the intersection, hoping that you'll get that break in traffic so you can make that louie. If the light turns red before you have a clear path to turn, you'll be blocking traffic. That's why. Also, don't turn your wheels in anticipation of the turn because if you get rear ended, instead of going straight, you'll be pushed into on-coming traffic."

It's the source of frustration of many motorists around the world, but, same as you did with many other problems, you can solve this one too. First, let's see what it means. The Check Engine light comes on when the central computer in your car called PCM detects a fault that can affect exhaust emissions. How it works: you car has 15 to 20 sensors that monitor your vehicle performance and emissions. For example, there is a mass air flow sensor that measures the amount of air that enters your engine. There is an air-fuel ratio sensor that measures the amount of oxygen in your exhaust, and so on. When one of the sensor detects something abnormal, the computer sets the code and turns on the Check Engine light. There are few hundreds possible codes. The code doesn't indicate what part to replace, but rather points to a sensor or system that malfunctioned."

This is a fairly difficult task for a new driver because it requires a good sense of closure rates. In Intersections Part 1, we discussed an exercise for improving this. Assuming that your teen is now a master of closure rates, you need to teach your teen how to assess intersections. Before we get further into the lesson, check out this video. A car runs a red light and is hit by cross-traffic. A pedestrian ends up getting hit, too. This is a perfect illustration of why you shouldn’t run a red light and why you should always wait a few seconds when a light turns green. I hope this hammers home the dangers of an intersection.

If you wish to catch a glimpse of one of these majestic and somewhat rare creatures, however, you can often find them in captive settings, such as zoos or safari parks. Meat Lions are carnivores, which means that meat is is an essential and unavoidable part of their diets. Lions in captivity feed heavily on a variety of different types of meats, including beef, sheep, rabbit, chicken and horse -- including heads of horses. Commercial Foods Apart from actual animal flesh, lions in captivity also regularly feed on carnivore-minded commercial foods formulated specifically with their species in mind. These feline foods take into consideration all of a lion's key dietary requirements, including calcium and amino acids. Bones Bones are also a common element on the typical menus of captive lions. Not too often -- bones are usually considered to be treats for lions and so, for the most part, are only offered to the big cats several times a month or so -- lions are provided with single big and fresh bones. Generally, cow bones are the bones of choice -- typically knuckles, femurs or shanks. Diet in the Wild The captive diets of these animals are based on those of their freely roaming counterparts."

Of course some people use these excuses as a defence mechanism when something makes them uncomfortable, some just like to start a fight and some may be genuinely curious, never having thought much about the topic before. Here are some of the more common (and some of the more ‘out there’) ‘reasons’ I’ve heard for people not going vegan, and why they are just plain nonsense. If we went vegan, the cows would take over the world! Really? How about you stop artificially breeding them first?1. Cows would take over the world. Admittedly there are rather a lot of cows in the world today. And sheep, chickens, pigs, goats…you get the idea. So if everyone went vegan, we’d be overrun with errant farm animals."

"text": "What Do Whales Eat? When it comes to survival few things are as important as shelter, rest and food. For marine mammals such as whales food is not only extremely important for their survival it’s also important for maintaining balance in the oceans ecosystem. In order for whales to capture their food these marine mammals search and hunt for their prey using a variety of techniques in order to locate, isolate and immobilize their prey for easy consumption. Because there are around 90 different animals within the cetacean family it is important to understand that not all species of whale hunt or attack their prey in the same way. Depending on the whales size, social structure, environment, species and type (baleen or toothed) their diets can change drastically from small aquatic life forms such as fish, shrimp, larvae, plankton, crabs, krill and squid to large marine mammals (which are generally consumed by killer whale) such as sea lions, walruses, seals, sharks, seabirds and even large whales. One of the most useful abilities whales use when hunting for food is known as echolocation. Echolocation is a trait that is found in all species of toothed whale. Echolocation works by emitting a series of clicking and busing noises and then listening to the echos that bounce off of objects in the area (such as fish or other aquatic life forms). The amount of time it takes the echo to return to the whale can provide these marine mammals with vital information such as how far the object is, how dense it is, whether it is hard or soft, and whether or not the object is moving or still."

Colors signal harvest time, breeding conditions, and the change of seasons, from the first greens of spring to the brilliant reds and browns of the fall. Pigments Pigments are chemical compounds responsible for color in a range of living substances and in the inorganic world. Pigments absorb some of the light they receive, and so reflect only certain wavelengths of visible light.

"text": "\"The spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta) is a family Hyaenidae mammal that's famously referred to as the \"\"laughing hyena.\"\" This moniker is a nod to the animals' signature vocalization, which indeed is similar to an enthusiastically cackling human being. Although spotted hyenas are seriously tough predators, they occasionally are subject to predation themselves. Basic Information Spotted hyenas, physically speaking, are vaguely reminiscent of wild dogs. Their fur usually is gray, yellow or beige, with scattered darker blotting that becomes less and less noticeable with aging. Males can weigh up to 138 pounds, while females can be as heavy as 165 pounds. The population of spotted hyenas is sizable, and they are fixtures all over Africa, from Kenya and the Sudan to Namibia and Botswana. Most members of this species survive for roughly 12 years, but some individuals exceed two decades. Predators Spotted hyenas are some of the savviest carnivores around, and therefore they're too intimidating and strong to have a wide assortment of predators.

"text": "« South African wildlife – Elephant encounter In a pandemic climate, public sneezing increases fears of unrelated risks »How many people did the man-eating lions of Tsavo actually eat? By Ed Yong | November 2, 2009 5:00 pm In 1898, railway workers in Tsavo, Kenya were terrorised by a pair of man-eating lions, who killed at least 28 people during a 10-month reign of terror. It ended in December when a British officer called Lt. Col. John H. Patterson killed both beasts. The man-eaters’ notorious exploits have been immortalised in no less than three Hollywood films, including most recently The Ghost and the Darkness. But despite their fame, no one is quite sure how many people they killed. The Ugandan Railway Company said 28; Patterson claimed it was 135. Both parties had reasons to lie, either playing down or exaggerating the figures for the sake of reputation. But Justin Yeake from the University of California decided to find the truth by going straight to the source – the remains of the man-eaters, currently on display in Chicago’s Field Museum of Natural History."

"text": "Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Volume 132, Issue 2, June 2002, Pages 389-399Changes in metabolism in response to fasting and food restriction in the Steller sea lion ( Eumetopias jubatus)David A. S. Rosen Andrew W. Trites Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/S1096-4959 (02)00048-9 Get rights and content Abstract Many animals lower their resting metabolism (metabolic depression) when fasting or consuming inadequate food. We sought to document this response by subjecting five Steller sea lions to periods of: (1) complete fasting; or (2) restricting them to 50% of their normal herring diet. The sea lions lost an average of 1.5% of their initial body mass per day (2.30 kg/d) during the 9–14-day fast, and their resting metabolic rates decreased 31%, which is typical of a ‘fasting response’. However, metabolic depression did not occur during the 28-day food restriction trials, despite the loss of 0.30% of body mass per day (0.42 kg/d). This difference in response suggests that undernutrition caused by reduced food intake may stimulate a ‘hunger response’, which in turn might lead to increased foraging effort. The progressive changes in metabolism we observed during the fasts were related to, but were not directly caused by, changes in body mass from control levels. Combining these results with data collected from experiments when Steller sea lions were losing mass on low energy squid and pollock diets reveals a strong relationship between relative changes in body mass and relative changes in resting metabolism across experimental conditions. While metabolic depression caused by fasting or consuming large amounts of low energy food reduced the direct costs from resting metabolism, it was insufficient to completely overcome the incurred energy deficit. Previous article Next article Keywords Bioenergetics Fasting Metabolic depression Steller sea lions1. Introduction Steller sea lions ( Eumetopias jubatus) are the largest of the Otariidae, and have experienced dramatic population declines that may be related to changes in the abundance or quality of prey available to them ( Alverson, 1992; Loughlin, 1998 )."

Born Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr. but known to most by his stage name, Snoop Dogg has recently undergone what he likes to describe as a “spiritual reincarnation.” Last February, Snoop spent a few weeks in Jamaica to record his new LP, appropriately titled Reincarnation (it’ll come out on Vice next spring). Along with the new album, Snoop has adopted the title of “Snoop Lion,” a name given to him by Rastafarian priests during his stay. It got us thinking: Snoop, the man who boasted about “sippin on gin and juice,” was caught sneaking out for chicken & waffles on his reality TV show, and once sent Food Republic’s own editorial director Richard Martin on an In-N-Out run (double-doubles with cheese, hold the onions, plus fries and shakes) will now have to change his diet — if he sticks to this Rastafarian conversion. ( We imagine the weed-as-sacrament part will be no problem. ) Rastafarian people refer to their most sacred foods as Ital or I-tal. The goal of Ital is to increase what Rastafarians call “Livity” or “Life Energy. ”Food consumed by Rastas should be natural, pure and from the earth. This means no foods that are chemically modified or that contain artificial additives."

Male and female lions have different responsiblities. Males aim to establish and maintain dominance and father cubs. Females provide for and protect pride members. Hunting Female lions, who make up 75 percent of the pride, are responsible for most of the hunting. Hunting usually takes place between evening and early morning. Antelopes, buffalo, impalas, zebras, wild hogs and wildebeest are common prey animals for African lions. The females work cooperatively to bring down prey. Lions can also hunt individually, bringing down small game like birds, rabbits and reptiles."

California sea lions are playful, smart, and graceful in the water. The trained \"\"seals\"\" in zoos and aquariums are often California sea lions because they are intelligent, agile and easy to train. Young male and female California sea lions look very similar with blond or light brown fur, but when males reach 4 or 5 year old, their fur changes to a dark red or chocolate brown color and they develop a blonde patch on top of their head as they age. Adult males may be up to 8 feet long and 1,000 pounds. California sea lion females are blond to dark brown. Females maybe over 5 feet long and weight up to 220 pounds. Pups are dark brown at birth and weigh about 16 pounds. When pups are 4 or 5 months old they molt their dark brown coat for a light brown or silver coat. California sea lions are very social on land and in the water, but during the breeding season the males will aggressively defend their territories and females will fight other females to protect their pups."

Answer by Marcy M Confidence votes 53.9KI love people and enjoy helping others. I have a great thirst for knowledge and always strive to expand my mind and thus my life. Male lions sleep up to 20 hours per day (with one eye open so to speak.) While the females are the hunters the male lions don't and their job is to protect the pride (their harem so to speak.) The male sleeps, but scent and (one eye open off and on) is gathering the strength he needs to spring on command when another male lion tries to steal his pride (female lioness'.) An older Lion will protect his pride, but if it's a younger male lion the younger one usually will back off of the fight rather than to risk death. If two adult male lions fight over the right of a pride there is usually a fight to the death. This takes energy and alertness so a male lion is never really fully asleep."

Each estrus lasts between four and seven days, but the amount of time between cycles depends on the individual lioness. Younger lionesses might go in and out of estrus with only a few days in between, while the interval might last for months and up to a year in older lionesses. The average interval is approximately two months. After a lioness bears young, she might not go into estrus for 20 months while raising her offspring."

"text": "This question originally appeared on Quora. Answer by Ariel Williams, Dreamer, Writer, Artist,Tiger vs Lion<Much of this answer directly borrowed from Wikipedia Tiger versus lion all quotes are block quoted. Non blockquoted text is original.>In the circuses of Ancient Rome, exotic beasts were commonly pitted against each other. The contest of the lion against the tiger was a classic pairing and the betting usually favored the tiger. At the end of the 19th century, the Gaekwad of Baroda arranged a fight between a lion and tiger before an audience of thousands. The Gaekwad favored the lion, and as a result had to pay 37,000 rupees as the lion was mauled by the tiger. Comparative size The Amur or Siberian tiger is the largest subspecies of the Panthera genus, known to weigh up to 800 lbs (360 kg), while large African lions weigh up to 550 lbs (250 kg). Average weight males is 181 kg for African lion, 221.2 kg for Bengal tiger and 230 kg for Siberian tiger. Notice in this profile, the Tiger is not significantly bigger than a lion despite having possibly several hundred pounds more weight.. This is important because it indicates the strength of the Tiger is much greater due to higher muscle density. Denser muscle is also stronger muscle."

Although the exact role of LTA is unknown, mutants display significant growth and physiological defects. Additionally, modification of the LTA backbone structure can provide protection against cationic antimicrobial peptides. This review provides an overview of the different LTA types and their chemical structures and synthesis pathways. The occurrence and mechanisms of LTA modifications with d-alanyl, glycosyl, and phosphocholine residues will be discussed along with their functions. Similarities between the production of type I LTA and osmoregulated periplasmic glucans in gram-negative bacteria are highlighted, indicating that LTA should perhaps be compared to these polymers rather than lipopolysaccharide, as is presently the case. Lastly, current efforts to use LTAs as vaccine candidates, synthesis proteins as novel antimicrobial targets, and LTA mutant strains as improved probiotics are highlighted.

Several crucial roles in Staphylococcus aureus fitness and cell wall maintenance have been assigned to these polymers, which are either covalently linked to peptidoglycan (wall teichoic acid, WTA) or to the cytoplasmic membrane (lipoteichoic acid, LTA). However, the exact TA structures, functions, and biosynthetic pathways are only superficially understood. Recently, most of the enzymes mediating TA biosynthesis have been identified and mutants lacking or with defined changes in WTA or LTA have become available. Their characterization has revealed crucial roles of TAs in protection against harmful molecules and environmental stresses; in control of enzymes directing cell division or morphogenesis and of cation homeostasis; and in interaction with host or bacteriophage receptors and biomaterials. Accordingly, several in vivo studies have demonstrated the importance of WTA and LTA in S. aureus colonization, infection, and immune evasion. TAs and enzymes required for TA biosynthesis represent attractive candidates for novel vaccines and antibiotics and are targeted by recently developed antibacterial therapeutics.

Bayles *Author information ► Copyright and License information ►This article has been cited by other articles in PMC. Go to: Abstract Summary: Although the phenomenon of bacterial cell death and lysis has been studied for over 100 years, the contribution of these important processes to bacterial physiology and development has only recently been recognized. Contemporary study of cell death and lysis in a number of different bacteria has revealed that these processes, once thought of as being passive and unregulated, are actually governed by highly complex regulatory systems. An emerging paradigm in this field suggests that, analogous to programmed cell death in eukaryotes, regulated cell death and lysis in bacteria play an important role in both developmental processes, such as competence and biofilm development, and the elimination of damaged cells, such as those irreversibly injured by environmental or antibiotic stress. Further study in this exciting field of bacterial research may provide new insight into the potential evolutionary link between control of cell death in bacteria and programmed cell death (apoptosis) in eukaryotes. Go to: INTRODUCTIONThe phenomenon of bacterial cell death and lysis has been the subject of study for well over 100 years. Because of its readily observable nature, work in the early 1900s focused on the self-destructive end stage of the bacterial life cycle, termed “autolysis,” and began with the identification of bacterial species that exhibited this seemingly counterproductive and enigmatic process (reviewed in reference 238 ). Although it was initially believed that secreted proteases were responsible for cell lysis, the lack of correlation between the organisms known to secrete protease activity and their propensity to undergo autolysis suggested otherwise ( 238 ). In 1919, Lord and Nye ( 155) suggested that the enzymes responsible for the autolysis of Streptococcus pneumoniae were intrinsically produced and sensitive to extremes in p H. Avery and Cullen ( 9) confirmed those findings and went on to identify specialized “bacteriolytic enzymes” that catalyzed this process, thus launching the era of the “autolysin.” Subsequent studies revealed that these enzymes (also referred to as murein or peptidoglycan hydrolases) were distinct from other commonly studied enzymes at the time, such as protease, pancreatic RNase, and hyaluronidase ( 179 ), and were shown to exhibit specificity for the species from which they were isolated ( 95 )."

Learning Objectives Describe the basic structure of a typical prokaryote Key Takeaways Key Points Prokaryotic cells lack a defined nucleus, but have a region in the cell, termed the nucleoid, in which a single chromosomal, circular, double-stranded DNA molecule is located. Archaeal membranes have replaced the fatty acids of bacterial membranes with isoprene; some archaeal membranes are monolayer rather than bilayer. Prokaryotes can be further classified based on the composition of the cell wall in terms of the amount of peptidoglycan present. Gram-positive organisms typically lack the outer membrane found in gram-negative organisms and contain a large amount of peptidoglycan in the cell wall, roughly 90%. Gram-negative bacteria have a relatively thin cell wall composed of a few layers of peptidoglycan. Gram-negative bacteria have a relatively thin cell wall composed of a few layers of peptidoglycan.

Buurman 2, *+ Author Affiliations*Nutrition and Toxicology Research Institute Maastricht, Department of General Surgery, Maastricht University, Maastricht, The Netherlands; and†Department of Biochemical Pharmacology, University of Konstanz, Konstanz, Germany Next Section Abstract Chylomicrons have been shown to protect against endotoxin-induced lethality. LPS-binding protein (LBP) is involved in the inactivation of bacterial toxin by lipoproteins. The current study examined the interaction among LBP, chylomicrons, and bacterial toxin. LBP was demonstrated to associate with chylomicrons and enhance the amount of LPS binding to chylomicrons in a dose-dependent fashion. In addition, LBP accelerated LPS binding to chylomicrons. This LBP-induced interaction of LPS with chylomicrons prevented endotoxin toxicity, as demonstrated by reduced cytokine secretion by PBMC. When postprandial circulating concentrations of chylomicrons were compared with circulating levels of low density lipoprotein, very low density lipoprotein, and high density lipoprotein, chylomicrons exceeded the other lipoproteins in LPS-inactivating capacity. Furthermore, highly purified lipoteichoic acid, an immunostimulatory component of Gram-positive bacteria, was detoxified by incubation with LBP and chylomicrons. In conclusion, our results indicate that LBP associates with chylomicrons and enables chylomicrons to rapidly bind bacterial toxin, thereby preventing cell activation. Besides a role in the detoxification of bacterial toxin present in the circulation, we believe that LBP-chylomicron complexes may be part of a local defense mechanism of the intestine against translocated bacterial toxin."

Use NCBI link to find]Species NCBI: Taxonomy Bacillus pumilus Description and Significance Bacillus pumilus is a spore-forming bacteria that is rod-shaped, Gram-positive, and aerobic. It resides in soils and some colonize in the root area of some plants where B. pumilus has antibacterial and antifungal activity. [ 1] Some purposes of B. pumilus that are being researched are its involvement in bacterial hay preservation, and the use of B. pumilus plasmids in gene transfer systems. [ 2] The proteases from B. pumilus are used in various industries. Food, chemical, detergent, and leather industries can benefit from the proteases from B. pumilus . [ 3] The use of the plasmids from B. pumilus and insertion of other plasmids to the bacteria aide in various industries, and as antimicrobials and antifungals. Genome Structure B. pumilus has one circular chromosome and have a varying length from 3.7 to 3.8 Mbp."

They can be found in very diverse environments ranging from cold to hot and alkaline to acid. They live in soil, in water, and on rocks. They exist deep in the earth, high on mountains, and in deep-sea vents. They grow on and in other bacteria, worms, insects, plants, animals, and people. Bacteria are prokaryotes . Prokaryotic cells possess simpler structures than eukaryotic cells , since they do not have a nucleus , other membrane bound organelles , or a cytoskeleton . Bacterial cells have two major compartments, the cytoplasm and cell envelope, and may also have exterior appendages , such as flagella or pili. There are two major types of prokaryotes: bacteria and archaea. Archaea (also called archaebacteria) are often found in extreme environments, and while they are clearly prokaryotic, they have evolved separately from bacteria."

( September 2014) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Virulence factors are molecules produced by bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa that add to their effectiveness and enable them to achieve the following: [ citation needed]colonization of a niche in the host (this includes attachment to cells)immunoevasion, evasion of the host's immune responseimmunosuppression, inhibition of the host's immune responseentry into and exit out of cells (if the pathogen is an intracellular one)obtain nutrition from the host Specific pathogens possess a wide array of virulence factors. Some are chromosomally encoded and intrinsic to the bacteria (e.g. capsules and endotoxin ), whereas others are obtained from mobile genetic elements like plasmids and bacteriophages (e.g. some exotoxins). Virulence factors encoded on mobile genetic elements spread through horizontal gene transfer, and can convert harmless bacteria into dangerous pathogens. Bacteria like Escherichia coli O157: H7 gain the majority of their virulence from mobile genetic elements. Gram-negative bacteria secrete a variety of virulence factors at host-pathogen interface, via membrane vesicle trafficking as bacterial outer membrane vesicles for invasion, nutrition and other cell-cell communications. It has been found that many pathogens have converged on similar virulence factors to battle against eukaryotic host defenses. These obtained bacterial virulence factors have two different routes used to help them survive and grow: The factors are used to assist and promote colonization of the host."

THE GRAM STAINDISCUSSIONThe Gram stain is the most widely used staining procedure in bacteriology. It is called a differential stain since it differentiates between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Bacteria that stain purple with the Gram staining procedure are termed Gram-positive; those that stain pink are said to be Gram-negative."
