"text": "Remedies Of Unleased Mineral Owners For Nonperformance Of Obligations By Unit Operators February 21, 2013Andrew Heacock, J. D./C. L. 2014, Paul M. Hebert Law Center, Louisiana State University In the ongoing case of Adams v. Chesapeake Operating [1], the United States Court for the Western District of Louisiana granted a partial motion for summary judgment in favor of Chesapeake on the issue of whether Louisiana Mineral Code articles 212.21–23 apply to unleased mineral owners pooled within a producing conservation unit. [ 2] The court ruled that the statutes, which authorize courts to award double damages and attorney’s fees when an operator of a well fails to timely pay pro-rata shares of well proceeds due, do not apply to unleased mineral owners. [ 3] In arriving at this conclusion, the court adopted an unjustifiably contrived reading of the statutes while overlooking the obvious purpose of the statutes themselves. Adams is the owner of unleased mineral rights inside a drilling and production unit formed by the Louisiana Commission of Conservation for production of natural gas from the Haynesville Shale formation in De Soto Parish. [ 4] Despite being pooled in the unit, Adams did not have a contract of lease for his minerals with any party. [ 5] On October 25, 2010, Chesapeake Operating completed a gas well inside Adams’s unit. [ 6] Chesapeake failed to send reports or information to Adams as required by statute. [ 7] After multiple written requests by Adams for reports and information on the well in his unit, he filed suit for his share of the production from the well, as well as attorney’s fees and double damages for Chesapeake’s failure to respond to his timely requests. [ 8]The court upheld Chesapeake’s motion for partial summary judgment on the issue of attorney’s fees and double damages. [ 9] The court’s decision was based strongly on the rationale that the statutes in question imply some sort of contractual relationship between the two parties, saying “ [f]rom a plain reading of the applicable statues, it is clear that Part 2-A of Chapter 13 of Title 31 applies to parties connected, in some form, whether directly or indirectly, by a mineral lease or some type of contract or agreement.” ["

"text": "\"Royalties Royalties are payments made by one company (the licensee) to another company (the licensor) in exchange for the right to use intellectual property or physical assets owned by the licensor. For example, software giant Microsoft invented the Windows operating system for personal computers as a means of managing files and performing operations. Computer manufacturers such as IBM and Compaq pay a royalty to Microsoft in exchange for being allowed to use the Windows operating system in their computers. Other common situations in which royalties are paid include the following: In the fashion industry, designers such as Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein license the right to use their names on items of clothing in exchange for royalties. For example, they may sign a contract with a company that makes jeans that allows the company to place the designer's name on the jeans. In book publishing, authors are commonly paid an advance on future royalties based on percentage of sales price; after sufficient sales have been made to \"\"pay back\"\" the advance, the authors received additional royalties paid periodically. In the music industry, royalties are paid to music copyright holders and to songwriters by radio stations and anyone else who derives a commercial benefit from the copyrighted material. In the television industry, popular satellite TV services such as Direct TV and cable television services pay network stations and superstations a royalty rate so that they can broadcast those channels over their systems. In the oil and gas industry, companies pay landowners a royalty rate for the right to extract natural resources, such as petroleum and natural gas, from the landowner's property. Similar agreements exist in the mining industry for minerals such as copper and silver."

"text": "\"Treaty Shopping Sometimes, companies are set up in jurisdictions merely to obtain the tax benefits that are granted under the relevant tax treaty, whilst the chosen structure in reality has little commercial substance. Tax authorities worldwide are aware of these so-called treaty shopping practices and have become more and more sophisticated in combating such misuse of tax treaties. In this article I will discuss some of the tools available to tax authorities in targeting treaty shopping. Being aware of these tools is essential when establishing the most appropriate and efficient tax structures for cross-border activities. Most countries are using the OECD Model Convention as the basis in their negotiations with other States to conclude bilateral tax treaties and in the first part of this article I will provide a brief summary on the general purpose of the Model Convention. In the second part of this article I will deal with some of the provisions that are embedded in the Model Convention and in some other bilateral tax treaties that can be used against treaty shopping. Since anti-treaty shopping provisions can also be found in domestic legislation and when applied would override the relevant tax treaty, I will furthermore provide an example of local anti-treaty shopping legislation. In the last part of this article I will touch upon the so-called Controlled Foreign Companies (“CFC”) rules that many jurisdictions have incorporated in their domestic legislation. Although these rules do not specifically target treaty shopping, they can have a significant impact on international tax structures and I will conclude this article with a brief summary of the current status of the compatibility of CFC rules with tax treaties.

To help answer these questions, the Division has developed a brochure. A printable PDF file is available in the \"\"Important Links\"\" section. Introduction Oil and gas are valuable commodities. Their presence beneath your land could mean extra income if you choose to grant a lease to an exploration company. Exploration companies employ or contract with a professional called a \"\"landman\"\" to acquire leases of mineral rights to land with potential reserves of oil and gas. Not all landmen work for exploration companies. You may have already been approached by a landman who has asked you to sign a lease that allows a company to drill on your property. If you are approached, consider the offer; revenue paid to owners of leased land can be substantial. Risks and inconveniences, however, are also possible."

"text": "The term royalties is used interchangeable to mean either oil and gas mineral interests, royalty interests, or overriding royalty interests. These three interests are similar in that they all receive revenue from the production of oil and gas from a well. They do not pay for drilling or the monthly operating expenses of the well. There is a small difference between mineral interests and royalty interests, and a greater difference between mineral interests and royalty interests and overriding royalty interests. Mineral interests and royalty interests both involve ownership of the minerals under the ground. The main difference between the two is that the owner of a mineral interest has the right to execute leases and collect bonus payments and the owner of royalty interests does not execute leases or collect bonus payments. They both receive a portion of the income once the well is producing, but only the mineral owner receives an up-front bonus payment. Overriding royalty interests do not require ownership of the minerals under the ground. They require ownership of a portion of the revenues generated from the production of oil and gas from a well. Like mineral interest and royalty interest owners, the owner of override royalty interests also receives a portion of the income from the production of oil and gas."

"text": "\"Integration (Force Pooling) in Arkansas: What Happens to Unleased Mineral Interests? If you've ever received notice from the Arkansas Oil and Gas Commission that your mineral interest was subject to an integration application, you may have wondered what \"\"integration\"\" actually is. Most states refer to it integration as \"\"force pooling\"\" or \"\"compulsory pooling\"\" of non-consenting mineral interests. In essence, after notice and a hearing, the Arkansas Oil and Gas Commission will enter an integration order that pools all of the unleased mineral interests with the consenting mineral owners located in a particular drilling unit. The pooled owners share in the unit's production, pro rata, based on their ownership percentages, and other factors. Once an unleased mineral interest becomes subject to an integration order, the mineral owner has the opportunity to elect from four distinct consideration options. First, the mineral owner can execute a lease at terms satisfactory between the mineral owner and the chosen lessee. Second, the mineral owner can elect to participate in the costs of drilling the well, and thus become an owner of the well. The mineral owner who elects to participate is responsible to pay his proportionate share of the costs of drilling and completing the well, and will receive all of the production for his ownership share. Third, the mineral owner can elect to \"\"go non-consent.\"\""

"title": "http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-an-overriding-royalty.htm\nWhat Is an Overriding Royalty?",
"text": "An overriding royalty is an interest in an asset that provides rights of participation which allow the investor to enjoy a royalty that is above and beyond the basic royalty that he or she is entitled to as part of the compensation for the investment. Unlike the basic royalty, the investor with an overriding royalty has the right to receive payments that are not encumbered by any operational or developmental costs associated with the investment. A royalty of this type is usually limited by specific terms and conditions and is not considered a type of royalty that is ongoing. One of the more common examples of an overriding royalty can be found with investments in oil and gas fields. In this scenario, the investor does receive basic royalties that are associated with the investments, but may also receive the additional royalty based on what is known as the working interest. For example, the investor may receive an overriding royalty that is connected with a lease on a specific field, based on the revenue that is generated by that field during the course of that lease. The royalty payments continue throughout the duration of the lease, but cease once that lease has expired. Ad Another characteristic that distinguishes the overriding royalty is that the compensation tendered to the investor is not based on the revenue remaining after operational costs have been calculated and extracted from the gross revenue. Instead, this type of royalty is determined based on the actual gross revenue that results from production in the field that is subsequently sold to buyers at current or better market prices. For as long as this temporary royalty remains available, the investor is able to collect both the overriding and the basic royalty payments, with the balance of each calculated based on different criteria."

"text": "Mineral Rights Property Types As a mineral owner there are three primary types of mineral interest you may own. Which property type you own is going to play a key role in the value. It’s important that you fully understand which property type you own. Producing Mineral Rights The easiest type of property to identify are producing mineral rights. You own producing mineral rights when the oil and gas company has already drilled on your property. Each month you receive a royalty check for your share of the oil and gas production. This royalty check is the key indicator that you own producing mineral rights. If you do not receive a royalty check each month (or every few months) then you have non-producing mineral rights. The nice thing about producing mineral rights is that there is a high demand for them. When you sell oil and gas royalties there will be a large number of people who make offers on your property."

"text": "\"How Can I Locate Who Owns the Mineral Rights Under My Land? Written by Mineral Hub Staff If you want to know how to find out who owns the mineral rights under your land, or find out if you do, then the first stop in your quest should probably be the county clerk’s office (free) and/or a private abstract office (not free) in the county where your land is located. Both are usually located in or near the county courthouse, and are where you will find all the filed land records having to do with your property. From the land records you can construct a “chain of title.” A chain of title is simply a sequential record of documents showing how the mineral rights have changed hands through the years. Your chain of title will be created using conveyances listed in index books at the courthouse or abstract office. You will need to know the legal description of the property in order to know which tract index book to look in; or you can search by name using the grantor/grantee index book if you have some names to work with but aren’t sure of the legal description. Either index book will tell you where to find the actual conveyances that pertain to your land. You should include in your chain of title all conveyances affecting the tract you are researching, and will also want to look for and examine any affidavits, liens, foreclosures, tax sales, divorce settlements, probate files, mortgages etc. that might affect the property as many of these are “conveyances” as well."

Ownership [ edit]In the United States, oil and gas rights to a particular parcel may be owned by private individuals, corporations, Indian tribes, or by local, state, or federal governments. Oil and gas rights extend vertically downward from the property line. Unless explicitly separated by a deed, oil and gas rights are owned by the surface landowner.

Taxes 4/26/2013 @ 1:16PM 72,959 views Overview Of The New 3.8% Investment Income Tax, Part 1Alright, it’s Friday, so let’s get our tax geek on. Beginning January 1, 2013, Obamacare – through the enactment of Section 1411 — will impose upon certain high earners a brand spankin’ new 3.8% tax on their “net investment income.” This additional tax has been the source of much confusion and misinformation for taxpayers and tax advisors alike. Much of the uncertainty is to be anticipated; after all, Section 1411 is not an amendment, expansion, or alteration of preexisting law. Rather, this is brand new statute, which means there are no judicial precedents or administrative rulings available to help interpret the legal language. But this new statute presents hurdles beyond what we typically see with recently enacted legislation; specifically, the vagaries of a term as critical to its implementation as “net investment income” is to Section 1411. In my honest opinion (man, I wish there was a shorthand way to write that), the determination of what does and does not constitute “net investment income” for purposes of Section 1411 will vex tax advisors more than any other issue in 2013. So as a public service, I thought I’d take advantage of this post-April 15 th downtime to put together a handy, four-part overview of the new investment income tax, focusing primarily on answering the question, “What IS net investment income?”Before we begin unraveling that mystery, however, let’s address the basic mechanics of Section 1411."

"text": "\"Virginia and the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS)Virginia's eastern edge extends underwater across the Outer Continental Shelf Source: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, GLOBE: A Gallery of High Resolution Images By the time Europeans arrived in Virginia, the Atlantic Ocean coastline was marked by marshes and barrier islands on the Eastern Shore and wide sandy beaches south of the Chesapeake Bay. The sailors understood the shoreline was dynamic. New spits of sand could appear after hurricanes, and dangerous new shoals could be created underwater when storms moved the sand. However, it is only recently that we have developed a clear understanding of how much the Virginia coast has changed over time. The Continental Shelf and a portion of the current Coastal Plain were underwater 120,000 years ago, when sea levels were 20-25 feet higher. At the start of the Wisconsin glacial stage, the Laurentide ice sheet grew, trapping water on land. Sea level dropped and the Virginia coastline migrated to the east, exposing the sediments coating the former ocean bottom. It was not a steady, constant change every year; the ice sheet grew and sea level dropped in distinctive steps. At times the process reversed and sea level rose briefly to drown the land again, with one such \"\"transgression\"\" occurring 35,000 years ago. About 30,000 years ago, the last step was a rapid expansion of the ice sheet and equally-rapid drop in sea level, exposing the last wedge of sediments that had been deposited on the outer edge of the Continental Shelf."

In the majority of countries, only the government can own and benefit from mineral rights. History California has a complicated history with regard to mineral rights ownership. According to Western Royalties, Mexico relinquished its claim to property in California in 1848. The U. S. Supreme Court ruled in 1858 that ownership of mineral rights had passed from Mexico to the United States, not to California, and therefore the U. S. government had the right to regulate mineral rights in California. Shortly after, the case was reheard by a Supreme Court with a changed membership. This hearing resulted in return of ownership rights, both surface and subsurface, to California landowners."

"text": "Understanding Land Ownership – Including Surface and Mineral Rights Interests and Estates in Land Mineral rights can be complex. By law, property falls into two categories — real or personal. Real property includes land and whatever is permanently attached to land, found on it either by nature, (water, trees, or minerals) or by man (buildings, fences, bridges, roads). Land is an inanimate thing which persons may, under the law, have different status to the land and the things attached to the land. ie. You can own the surface rights, but you sell the timber rights to farmer John for 25 years. The nature of the status of the land is fixed by law, and are distinguished as being either a freehold estate or a non-freehold estate. Freehold means ownership without limitations to duration. Non-freehold would be like farmer John who bought timber rights, that only last 25 years. Freehold estates include estates in fee simple, determinable or conditional fee, and life estates."

The key difference between working interest and royalty interest is that w hile working interest refers to the right granted to a mining company to extract resources from a property in which case the landowner is responsible for the ongoing costs associated with mining operations whereas royal interest is a right where the landowner’s cost is limited to the initial investment.

Hi I am trying to find out: Radio 1,2,4 Classic FM Capital Radio 5 Live Virgin Radio Talk Spot FM/MW/LW and Frequency but I thought they were the same thing? Please help2 following 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: FM is \"\"frequency modulation\"\", that is the information is sent by varying the frequency (the wave amplitude never changes.) MW (medium wave) and LW (long wave) are AM (amplitude modulation) - the information is sent by varying the amplitude, but keeping the frequency the same. FM is a high quality signal, but has a very short range. This is capable of transmitting high quality stereo sound. AM bands are long range, capable of reaching long distances, even to other countries, by bouncing the signal off the earth's ionoshpere.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search AM and FM modulated signals for radio. AM ( Amplitude Modulation) and FM ( Frequency Modulation) are types of modulation (coding). The electrical signal from program material, usually coming from a studio, is mixed with a carrier wave of a specific frequency, then broadcast. In the case of AM, this mixing (modulation) is done by altering the amplitude of the carrier wave with time, according to the original signal. In the case of FM, it is the frequency of the carrier wave that is varied. A radio receiver (a \"\"radio\"\") contains a demodulator that extracts the original program material from the broadcast wave. FM Radio Broadcasting : Big Picture in Full Electromagnetic Spectrum A commercial 35 k W FM radio transmitter built in the late 1980s. It belongs to FM radio station KWNR in Las Vegas, Nevada, and broadcasts at a frequency of 95.5 MHz. FM broadcasting is a method of radio broadcasting using frequency modulation (FM) technology. Invented in 1933 by American engineer Edwin Armstrong, it is used worldwide to provide high-fidelity sound over broadcast radio."

"text": "\"In this paper we discuss the requirements of getting into space and how to satisfy those requirements. We discuss examples of known examples of known available chemical energy, structural requirements for reaching space and surviving, an example space vehicle that could achieve these requirements and an example flight path for the vehicle. We then discuss the basic structure of the small start up busness needed to suceed as a private company, and reasonable estimates for all costs and an algorithm for what the prices would be as a function of traffic into space. Just what does it require to get into Low Earth Orbit? Please remember that this was accomplished with pre-1960's technology. First, you need something that can push, pull, drag or carry a given mass and volume about 150 kilometers up with a net velocity of at least 7,814 m/s tangent to the curve of the Earth. The height is needed to get out of most of the drag in the air, which is noticeable at the needed speeds to stay in orbit. The velocity is what is needed to stay in orbit at that altitude. Second, you need enough instrumentation to tell how fast it is going and where it is, as well as some to monitor what is going on from time to time. Such as engines' status, remaining propellants, nearby objects.... Third, the vehicle needs to survive in the given environment long enough to deliver the cargo above, and preferably to return intact."

Metallurgical coal bought on a spot basis from Australia increased significantly over 2014, both in numbers of transactions recorded and the overall volumes being purchased. Liquidity of FOB Australia spot sales is closing the gap on those in the CFR China market. Rise spurred on by increased availability of tonnage to traders, with follow-on sales to end-users, as well as by a rise in producer-consumer direct sales by spot. CFR China sales show continued divergence between realized prices for low-vol and mid-vol coking coal. FOB/CFR market price disconnect continues through 2014, with well-supplied domestic Chinese mid-vol coal competing successfully with imports. As a result same-brand coals achieving different pricing in FOB and CFR markets. Miners take a portfolio approach to product placement, cutting exposure to the Chinese spot market for mid-vols where possible. Price risk management activity continues to increase for coking coal, with swaps and futures contracts seeing trading grow."

"text": "How Does a Push-Button Start Work?by Valerie Johnston on November 19, 2015Share Tweet Pin For the vast majority of people, cranking your car involves getting the key out, sliding it into the ignition, and turning it to the “run” position. However, if you have a push-button start system, then you don’t have to do that. You just get inside and push the button labeled start/stop, and the engine roars to life. Simple and easy, right? Actually, these are pretty complicated systems. The purpose of a push-button start system You might think that the primary purpose of a push-button start system is convenience, but you’d only be partially correct. They’re really designed to discourage theft. Because there is no physical key necessary to crank the car, it actually makes it harder for would-be thieves to make off with your vehicle. Though you don't need a traditional key to get the car started, you need a special fob. It can stay in your pocket, where it broadcasts a signal to the car’s computer."

"text": "A: Ex Works (EXW) and Free on Board (FOB) are Incoterms used to describe situations where sellers deliver goods. Ex Works describes the situation where the seller is responsible for having the goods ready at her place of business. Free on Board is a situation where the seller is obligated to deliver the goods. Although these terms are similar, responsibilities and obligations are delegated to different parties in EXW and FOB. Ex Works specifies that the seller of goods is responsible for making the products readily available for pickup at the location where she conducts business for the buyer. However, the seller is not liable for the transportation costs and risks; the buyer is responsible for the transportation arrangements. The EXW trade agreement is favorable to the seller because the buyer is responsible if something goes during the transportation of the goods, such as the goods getting lost in transit. For example, a seller of electronic products is located in San Francisco, California. The buyer is located in New York, New York. The buyer and seller agree on the price for these products and sign an Ex Works trade agreement."

"text": "\"Sid Kemp, I love the English language as a medium of beauty and wisdom. Answered Aug 22, 2016 · Author has 3.6k answers and 5.4m answer views Terence, thanks for the A2A. The origin of the term “fob” as in “key fob” goes back to either Middle English fobben, or German Fuppe (pocket) or the German foppen meaning sneak-proof. A fob is, most precisely, an object kept with keys for one of several purposes. The purpose might be easy identification by sight or feel, or as part of an anti-theft mechanism, or as an anti-theft item. Generally, a fob is kept with keys by a chain. The whole set of key or keys and fob on a chain may be kept in a pocket. The chain may be attached elsewhere on one’s clothing. This is convenient because one can get to the keys by pulling on the chain without digging through the pocket. As the whole mechanism - key, chain, object, and possibly pocket - all go together, the term fob sometimes applies to the object, sometimes to the pocket, and sometimes to the chain. People get a bit vague in using the term.decorative leather fob, above; below, before electronic fobs, key fobs often went with different brands of cars Now, cars open with electronic key fobs Starting in the 1980s, digital security was sometimes implemented on a physical device electronically encoded with an electronic key to give access to a computer, a hardware device, software, or data storage."

Contents1 Overview2 Research sections3 Medal of Honour4 See also5 External links6 References Overview [ edit]The Institute was founded in 1921, as the Institute for Theoretical Physics of the University of Copenhagen, by the Danish theoretical physicist Niels Bohr, who had been on the staff of the University of Copenhagen since 1914, and who had been lobbying for its creation since his appointment as professor in 1916. On the 80th anniversary of Niels Bohr's birth - October 7, 1965 - the Institute officially became the Niels Bohr Institute. [ 1] Much of its original funding came from the charitable foundation of the Carlsberg brewery, and later from the Rockefeller Foundation. [ 2]During the 1920s, and 1930s, the Institute was the center of the developing disciplines of atomic physics and quantum physics. Physicists from across Europe (and sometimes further abroad) often visited the Institute to confer with Bohr on new theories and discoveries. The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics is named after work done at the Institute during this time. On January 1, 1993 the institute was merged with the Astronomic Observatory, the Ørsted Laboratory and the Geophysical Institute. The new resulting institute retained the name Niels Bohr Institute."

Fabiola, depends on the room temperature your buttermilk rested at. Six hours is a long time at normal room temp (65 to 70 degrees). If you throw it out, you can make your own buttermilk pretty easily: Put 2 tablespoons lemon juice or white vinegar in a measuring cup. Add 1 cup regular milk to fill to the 1-cup mark."

"text": "February 18, 2014What’s Wrong with Belgium? Tracey Rowland There is something beautiful about Belgium if one thinks of the Flemish architecture, the canals, the countryside dotted with blue-grey cows that produce the milk that makes the whipped cream (in Flemish Slagroom) for the cafes and patisseries. There are country lanes with bicycles and villages with medieval churches and towns with great works of Christian art. There’s Van Eyck’s Adoration of the Lamb and the venerated relic of Holy Blood allegedly collected by Joseph of Arimathea and brought from the Holy Land by Thierry of Alsace, Count of Flanders. However, against all this natural beauty and fine works of art, including the artistic works of the pastry chefs and the lace-makers, there is something deeply sinister about this country. Its Catholic culture has been trashed by a couple of generations of intellectuals at war with their own heritage. I first visited Belgium in 2004 to attend a theology conference in Leuven. The conference Mass was the most bizarre liturgical experience of my life. It did not take place in any of the many churches in Leuven but in the conference room itself. Part of the ritual took the form of watching a video of the September 11 attack on the twin towers while listening to mood music."

You're not pregnant (it may cause miscarriage if you are pregnant!). B. You're due or late your period, if your period is not due it won't work. Parsley is the best known method to induce a late period, it's a mild emmenagogue meaning it relaxes your cervix, it is best coupled with progesterone blocking, uterine contracting and oestrogenic methods too, but really parsley is enough and does work very well. You are drinking the right amount but it depends on how you are preparing the tea, if you have boiled the herb then it will lose it's potency, also you need to ideally be using pure/distilled water to avoid any chemicals in tap water effecting the herb, and best is to use fresh parsley over dried. Ideally (parsley tea bags in a mug of boiled water from your tap will still have an effect) fill a medium sized pan with water, bring to the boil then remove from heat to add two handfulls of fresh chopped parsley. Cover and let steep for 20-30 minutes before straining and adding honey to taste. Don't use parsley if you have kidney problems!! Your period being 2-3 days late is totally normal, cycles aren't exact so they can vary from cycle to cycle by a few days, especially when in your twenties when your body is still changing which can effect your cycles."

J. — A careening commuter train plowed through the barrier at the end of the tracks and crashed into a wall at a terminal here during the morning rush on Thursday, killing one person, injuring more than 100 others and unleashing chaos as part of the station’s roof came tumbling down in a jumble of metal. The startling impact tossed commuters around on the crowded train and created enough force to knock bystanders to their knees, transforming a historic station — one of the busiest in the New York region — into a disaster area around 8:45 a.m. The person who died was a woman standing on the platform, who was hit by falling debris. Officials said they had not determined why the train, which was carrying an estimated 250 passengers, was traveling at a high speed and failed to halt on the track. “I remember thinking, Why aren’t we stopping?” said Jamie Weatherhead-Saul, who was standing between the first and second cars on the train. “"

After that they initially give some advance money during the process of investigating. After you have shown the receipts of expenditure of the advance money on replacing of important items, and after the investigation ends, the final payment of money will be given. The advance money is given normally within 1-2 weeks."

"text": "\"PEPLUM Introduction If you're on this blog or visited my youtube channels and ever wondered what's a PEPLUM film, well, this is the right place to get a crash course on the subject. The term PEPLUM to describe a certain kind of film was coined by French film critics, from Cahier du Cinema and other influencial film magazines or newspapers as a quick way of describing a type of film that takes place in Ancient times, such as Ancient Greece/Rome/Egypt/Arabia/Norse, etc. Any story taking place thousands of years ago in and around the Mediterranean or Old Europe they described as a PEPLUM. The main characters usually wore togas, stolas, tunics, wraps, loincloths, whatever. The fashion in those films, for the most part, were usually colorful & revealing, for both women and men, and because a peplum is an actual type of dress for women the critics agreed that using an actual description for a dress was a suitable term because they basically saw these films as costume dramas. It was easier for critics to call them PEPLUMS (or PEPLA) when HERCULES (1958) became an international hit and the screens were suddenly flooded with a glut of such films (the PEPLUM Explosion) that an all-emcompassing term was needed to categorise them. The term PEPLUM is singular while PEPLA is the plural version. I rarely use the word PEPLA, even if it's the correct term, because most people are still not used to PEPLUM. Folks in Europe are familiar with it but not here in North America, certainly in the US, which usually uses SWORD & SANDAL or SAND & SANDAL, or BIBLICAL epic to describe such films. As good as those terms are though (I use SWORD & SANDAL almost as often as PEPLUM) they don't cover all types of films under the PEPLUM umbrella."

"text": "Operating An Uninspected Motor Vehicle In New York – VTL 306January 21, 2013 2:27 pm Published by Adam Rosenblum 35 Comments Life can get pretty busy, so for many drivers one of the last things on your mind is making sure your car has been inspected. In New York if you are a car owner you are required to have a safety and emissions inspections once every year. The inspection must be done before the expiration date that is listed on your current inspection sticker and whenever there is a transfer in ownership of the vehicle. States across America require that vehicles are regularly inspected to make sure that vehicles are both safe and do not contribute to air pollution. In 1990 New York began a campaign known as “Drive New York Clean” under the Federal Clean Air Act which requires New York State to conduct an inspection program to help reduce harmful emissions from most gasoline-powered passenger cars and light-duty trucks. The emissions inspection is done at the same time as the annual safety inspection. Vehicles that fail the emissions inspection may not be able to become registered or, if already registered, the registration may not be renewed. Regular inspections not only help in overall air quality but ensure motorists drive efficient and safe vehicles that perform better, reduce costly repairs, reduce fuel costs and help extend the life of your vehicle. Inspections must be performed by a licensed inspection station (look for official sign) and must be performed by a certified motor vehicle inspector. You should make sure that your vehicle inspection sticker has not expired and continue to regularly maintain your vehicle."

An approximate definition of sea level is the datum WGS 84, an ellipsoid, whereas a more accurate definition is Earth Gravitational Model 2008 (EGM2008), using at least 2,159 spherical harmonics. Other datums are defined for other areas or at other times; ED50 was defined in 1950 over Europe and differs from WGS 84 by a few hundred meters depending on where in Europe you look. Mars has no oceans and so no sea level, but at least two martian datums have been used to locate places there. Datums are used in geodesy, navigation, and surveying by cartographers and satellite navigation systems to translate positions indicated on maps (paper or digital) to their real position on Earth. Each starts with an ellipsoid (stretched sphere), and then defines latitude, longitude and altitude coordinates. One or more locations on the Earth's surface are chosen as anchor \"\"base-points\"\". The difference in co-ordinates between datums is commonly referred to as datum shift. The datum shift between two particular datums can vary from one place to another within one country or region, and can be anything from zero to hundreds of meters (or several kilometers for some remote islands). The North Pole, South Pole and Equator will be in different positions on different datums, so True North will be slightly different."

As a Java developer, it is a preferred option for running Java applets that do not involve the use of a web browser. Even though the applet viewer logically takes the place of a web browser, it functions very differently from a web browser. The applet viewer operates on HTML documents, but all it looks for is embedded applet tags; any other HTML code in the document is ignored. Each time the applet viewer encounters an applet tag in an HTML document, it launches a separate applet viewer window containing the respective applet. The only drawback to using the applet viewer is that it will not show how an applet will run within the confines of a real web setting. Because the applet viewer ignores all HTML codes except applet tags, it does not even attempt to display any other information contained in the HTML document. An Applet viewer creates an environment that mocks the look and feel of a stand-alone program with no interaction with a web browser, even though it does involve a browser to run an applet.

Thanks a lot!cl99rb86Bronze Member06 posts Report post Posted April 7, 2004Hi. GIA stands for Gemological Institute of America, which is a highly respected institute for gemological research and education in the United States. GIA operates the Gem Trade Laboratory, which is GIA's sole diamond-grading authority. When a diamond is \"\"GIA certified,\"\" it means it has been graded for the \"\"4 Cs\"\" by GIA gemologists, and a grading report from the Gem Trade Laboratory (GIA Diamond Grading Report or GIA Diamond Dossier) should accompany any GIA-certified diamond. I'm planning to make a diamond purchase soon, so I've done lots and lots of research on the subject, and the general consensus seems to be that GIA certificates are the most prestigious because GIA grading is consistent and conservative. The only exception seems to be that AGS (American Gem Society) certificates are preferable if the primary concern is for diamond cut -- AGS is the only reputable lab that offers a cut grade at this time, though I hear GIA is currently working on standards for its own cut grade. In any case, GIA reports include measurements, depth and table percentages, and symmetry and polish grades, all of which provide a lot of good information about cut. I hope this helps.niceice Gold Member016 posts Gender: Male Location: Puerto Vallarta, Mexico Interests: Freediving, Scuba diving, wake boarding, photography, underwater photography, German shepherd dogs and so much more!Report post Posted April 9, 2004When a diamond is \"\"GIA certified,\"\" it means it has been graded for the \"\"4 Cs\"\" by GIA gemologists Actually for the record, the GIA-GTL (Gemological Institute of America Gem Trade Laboratory) does not provide a grade for the 4C's they really only publish grades for the 3C's at this point in time: Carat weight, Color and Clarity... The 4th C - Cut is not touched by the GIA which only provides the total depth and table diameter measurements on their lab reports along with a girdle measurement... In order to determine the Cut Grade of a diamond the GIA would need to publish the Crown Angle and Pavilion Angle measurements on their lab report... They don't do this now, but they're talking about doing so in the future."

In the photo above the stone on the left is reacting to an ultra-violet light. Fluorescence is a characteristic that describes the effect of ultra violet light on some diamonds.

"text": "DIAMOND COLOR CHARTDiamonds come in a variety of colors, some of them highly prized (pinks, blues, even yellow). However in a white diamond, the presence of a yellow tint will lower the price of a diamond. The less body color in a white diamond, the more true color it will reflect, and thus the greater its value. Every Lumera Diamond has been assigned a color grade by the GIA in a viewing environment specially designed to eliminate color from surrounding surfaces as well as the light source itself. This allows the color of the diamond to be accurately measured. Minor differences in diamond color detected in this environment are very difficult if not impossible to detect in a normal environment. The diamond industry has adopted the GIA diamond color scale; almost every diamond sold today is rated using the GIA color scale, whether it was actually certified by the GIA or not. Diamonds of D, K, and Z GIA Color Grade The GIA grades diamonds on a scale of D (colorless) through Z (light color). All D-Z diamonds are considered white, even though they contain varying degrees of color. True fancy colored diamonds (such as yellows, pinks, and blues) are graded on a separate color scale."

"text": "\"While many of the basics of how to buy a diamond apply to all types of diamonds, they actually vary a bit among the different colors. And since yellow diamonds are the most commonly known color among natural colored diamonds (and for a good reason), we decided that preparing a guide on how to specifically buy them is a must. In this guide we will try to cover everything from what are yellow diamonds, what is the meaning of their different intensities, explain about yellow diamond prices and how to become a smart shopper. Note that while there is a strong trend of buying yellow diamonds for investment purposes, this guide is not meant for that. This guide has all that is needed in order to buy a yellow diamond for what it was intended - making beautiful jewelry. With that said, let's begin: What Are Yellow Diamonds? The diamond color scale used for white diamonds goes from D to Z. As the letter is closer to Z, it means that the diamond is less colorless and starts to be a bit yellowish in tone, a pale yellow shade. This degrades the diamond and their prices decrease as you get closer to Z. However, at a certain point, if you \"\"continue on the color scale\"\", the color doesn't look as a faded yellow and instead becomes a beautiful yellow shade - this is the point when the price increases again and the diamond is considered a yellow diamond. Yellow diamonds belong to the special family of natural fancy color diamonds. Regular diamonds that due to impurities found in them (a fluke of nature) change their color during their formation process - making them everything but regular."

No other gem can radiate like a diamond does. It’s like a reachable, wearable star that connotes a timeless bond. And the head honcho behind this mesmerizing shimmer is what we call the “ Diamond Cut ”. Now, a lot of you may have heard of round cut, princess cut, and other diamond shapes that are tailed by the word “ cut “. Well, it’s just like a childhood nickname you can’t get rid of! But that’s not really what Diamond Cut is all about. What I mean by Cut is the proportions of the diamond that determine its level of sparkle. Or in gemological terms: its fire, brilliance, and scintillation. ( You’ll be seeing these terms down the line, so better get used to it. )"

One of the first things most people learn about diamonds is that not all diamonds are created equal. In fact, every diamond is unique. Diamonds come in many sizes, shapes, colors, and with various internal characteristics. All polished diamonds are valuable. That value is based on a combination of factors. Rarity is one of those factors. Diamonds with certain qualities are more rare—and more valuable—than diamonds that lack them. Jewelry professionals use a systematic way to evaluate and discuss these factors. Otherwise, there would be no way to compare one diamond to another."

As he grew up, he developed a hatred for his mother and vowed that he would never trust her. However, when he met her in Port Charles in 1996, he wanted to become close to her despite lingering reservations about trusting her. Stefan had taken Nikolas to town to save his half-sister Lulu's life by donating his bone marrow to her. Luke, who had not known about Nikolas until then, forced Laura to choose between Nikolas and her real family. Torn, Laura ultimately chose to remain with Luke and their children and abandoned Nikolas yet again. Hurt, Nikolas felt no need to remain in Port Charles and asked Stefan to take him back to Greece. However, Stefan threatened to have General Hospital shut down if Laura didn't let the Cassadines remain in Port Charles. She was forced to agree to his terms. During all of this, Nikolas had developed a close friendship with nurse Bobbie Spencer at General Hospital."

The initials of the gemological laboratory grading each diamond appear in parentheses.

However, these twelve retailers show there is a wide range of prices (here $3,427.20 to $5,005.00), even for very similar diamonds. If the diamond’s description was altered just a bit—maybe a grade higher in clarity or a grade lower in color—the retailers would all offer different prices, and the ones showing the best prices for this example might no longer be the best prices in town. Why? Some retailers carry more stock of certain types of diamonds, usually to match what’s popular with their clientele."

Each grade describes a different aspect of the diamond and it is only the sum total of all these characteristics which will determine if the diamond is a true gem or just a commercial grade. CARATCARAT means weight (1 carat = 1/5 of a gram). The diamond weight is a very important factor to its cost. The term \"\"carat \"\" originated from the seeds of the carob tree. These carob seeds are extremely uniform in eight and this made them the ideal weight unit for the ancient gem traders. This weight (one carob seed) as later standardized to be 1 carat, or 1/5th of a gram, hence a five carat diamond equals 1 gram and 155.51 carats equal one ounce."

Over 40 years in the diamond trade. Answered May 25, 2016HPHT (High Pressure, High Temperature) is a diamond color enhancement process performed only on candidate Type 2a brown diamonds with the highest structural integrity and clarity grades. The process mimics the same geological conditions the earth uses (heat and pressure) to transform their brownish color to colorless and white grades. These diamonds have intrinsically high clarities ranging most commonly from VVS2 to flawless. The resulting colors after HPHT processing typically fall within the D-G range. Less commonly, an HPHT diamond can be found with an H color and VS2 clarity. HPHT can also be used to transform brownish Type 2a diamonds into pink, red, blue, green, and orange diamonds. HPHT is considered a non-toxic, permanent process, meaning it is stable and the color will not change over time (as can sometimes occur with irradiated diamonds)."

Andrew Burton/Getty Images Amazing, simple, easy, fair. Those are just four of the words Donald Trump used on Monday to describe his new tax plan. It sounds like a standard GOP tax plan, with cuts and limits on deductions. But when you look closer, it takes those ideas much further than his GOP rivals do — to the extent that it could cost the federal government trillions of dollars. So what is he proposing? Here's what you need to know about it: What does it do? Here are the highlights from Trump's plan: It would reduce the number of tax brackets from seven — with marginal tax rates ranging from 10 to 39.6 percent — to four — ranging from zero to 25 percent.... meaning Trump would be introducing a zero percent tax bracket for all single people earning less than $25,000, as well as all jointly filing married couples earning less than $50,000. The campaign estimates that this would \"\"remove nearly 75 million households ... from the federal income tax rolls.\"\" ( Those who would now owe zero percent would get a fun new tax form: \"\"They get a new one-page form to send the IRS saying, 'I win,' \"\" Trump's tax plan says. )"

By Lindsey Cook, Data Editor Feb. 2, 2016, at 10:30 a.m. Why New Hampshire Matters in Presidential Elections Voters mark their ballots on Jan. 10, 2012, at Memorial High School in Manchester, N. H., during the state's presidential primaries. Matt Rourke/APNew Hampshire is the second state to make its picks for the Republican and Democratic presidential nominees. Residents will cast ballots in primary elections on Feb. 9, one week after the first presidential nominating contest in Iowa, where Republican Ted Cruz and Democrat Hillary Clinton emerged victorious from the caucuses. If the past is any indication, the results in New Hampshire will likely differ from those of Iowa, whether by winner or vote margin. The state has an independent streak, and also differs from the rest of U. S. in key demographic areas. New Hampshire, too, is close to Sen. Bernie Sanders ' state of Vermont, and is expected to support the socialist Democrat to a greater degree than Iowa. And while all the early primary states are in the business of winnowing the presidential field, New Hampshire in the past has set itself apart by spooking the front-runner and supporting a lesser-known candidate. With a crowded field on the Republican side, that type of choice could make things particularly interesting. While we wait to see who the winners and losers will be, we're digging into the details of the second presidential nominating state to answer some questions you might have."

CREDIT: APThe Affordable Care Act celebrates its fourth birthday on Sunday, just as its first enrollment period comes to a close. It has been a long battle to get to this level of implementation — and the fight hasn’t ended yet. From Republicans’ initial resistance to repealing Obamacare in its entirety to their relentless effort to chip away at the law by targeting individual provisions, withholding funding, and undermining implementation, the party is showing no signs of abandoning its anti-Obamacare crusade any time soon. On this anniversary, Think Progress takes a look back at all of the milestones in the GOP’s ongoing campaign to undermine a law that has defined national politics for half a decade: MARCH 23, 2010: An immediate push to repeal. Immediately after President Obama signed the Senate health care bill into law, 13 Republican state attorneys general file a federal lawsuit against the overhaul and Sens. Jim De Mint (R-SC), Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) and Rep. Steve King (R-IA) introduce legislation to repeal the law. King even offers a discharge petition. “ If we can get to 218, we can force Nancy Pelosi to bring a repeal to the floor for a vote.

"text": "Is Donald Trump Running a False Flag Campaign to Help Hillary Clinton?1.26MJ. K. Trotter08/13/15 01:42PM Filed to: conspiracies Donald Trump, the 69-year-old New York real estate mogul and unrepentant bigot, continues to dominate the Republican presidential primary polls. Trump’s sudden ascendance, accelerated by his willingness to insult virtually any ostensible ally within the conservative movement, has left GOP leaders dumbfounded. How did this caricature of a Republican politician, who has never held elected office, and whose personal ideology is remarkably fluid, usurp more experienced, more conservative, and better-funded candidates like Jeb Bush and Scott Walker? Within this vacuum of understanding, an almost-believable conspiracy theory has obtained currency: Donald Trump is in fact a false flag candidate whose actual mission is electing Hillary Clinton as President. To understand the contours of this theory, it’s helpful to understand where it came from. A Google search suggests the first person to remark upon Trump’s indirect assistance to Clinton was the anti-war activist and “conservative-paleo-libertarian” Justin Raimondo. In a long blog post dated July 13— just a few days after Trump stole Jeb Bush’s lead —Raimondo argued that the timing of Trump’s entry into the presidential race, which the candidate had long hinted at but until this year never followed through on, could only be explained by a hidden “Democratic wrecking operation” designed to assist Clinton’s parallel campaign: [Trump’s] ties to the Clintons, his past pronouncements which are in such blatant contradiction to his current fulminations, and the cries of joy from the Clintonian gallery and the media (or do I repeat myself) all point to a single conclusion: the Trump campaign is a Democratic wrecking operation aimed straight at the GOP’s base. Donald Trump is a false-flag candidate. It’s all an act, one that benefits his good friend Hillary Clinton and the Democratic party that, until recently, counted the reality show star among its adherents."

S. Rep. Patrick Murphy has declared he’s running for Senate in 2016. Following the second-term congressman’s announcement he’ll seek Republican Sen. Marco Rubio’s job, some liberals are saying Murphy is not the right candidate. They cite the Jupiter Democrat’s habit of breaking with his party on House votes. \"\" As a matter of fact, he’s sided with the GOP on key votes twice as often as he sided with Democrats,\"\" said Brook Hines, a marketing consultant for progressive campaigns, in a column on politics site The Florida Squeeze.com. Hines later says U. S. Rep. Alan Grayson, whom she calls \"\"a bold progressive,\"\" would be a better candidate. Murphy was for many years a registered Republican before running for Congress in 2012, and he has a reputation for sometimes breaking with his party. But twice as much on so-called key votes? We decided to check the roll call to find out how Murphy really voted. Voting progressive Murphy has lived up to his moderate campaigns."

"text": "Donald Trump, the GOP’s presidential front-runner, needs a lesson in party rules. He seems to think that if he repeatedly insists that he should win the nomination if he ends up with the most delegates among the remaining contenders, it will be true. But that’s where his political inexperience is showing. The Republican Party’s nomination process just doesn’t work like that, and saying otherwise a thousand times won’t make it so. Threatening that there will be riots won’t help him either (we hope). In order to win the GOP nomination, Trump needs a majority of the delegates — that means 50 percent plus one — not just “the most” delegates. ( That’s also how it works with the Democratic Party. ) The Republicans’ nomination rulebook states quite clearly, “There are 2,472 delegates to the 2016 Republican National Convention. Therefore, 1,237 delegates are currently required to secure the Republican nomination for President of the United States outright. ”If a candidate secures those 1,237 delegates through the primary and caucus process that occurs in the states prior to the convention, great!"

By Daniel Larison • May 12, 2016, 12:24 PMTweeta katz / Shutterstock.com Ross Douthat revisits his assumptions about Trump and the GOP: So to catalog my wrongness: I overestimated the real commitment of both factions’ leaders to their stated principles and favored policies. ( Even though I didn’t agree with many of those policies myself, I assumed from the party’s longstanding resistance to change that someone did!) I overestimated their ability to put those principles ahead of personal resentments. And yes, since to acquiesce to Donald Trump as the Republican nominee is to gamble recklessly with the party’s responsibilities to the republic, I overestimated their basic sense of honor. That all makes a certain amount of sense, but it still misses something. If Trump has been able to draw supporters from both sides of the GOP, and if he has been able to assemble a broad base of support among Republican voters, it isn’t just because they aren’t very principled or driven by resentments against other candidates. That may be part of the explanation, but it isn’t the whole story. For example, Boehner and Christie have ended up in Trump’s camp because they have had good personal relationships with him, and they definitely have not had good relationships with Cruz and Rubio respectively. As Cruz discovered too late, those relationships matter in politics as much as they do in any other field."

Not really. Here's Q&A explaining what Democrats just did. By Francine Kiefer, Staff writer November 21, 2013Jacquelyn Martin/AP View Caption About video ads View Caption WASHINGTON — House majority leader Harry Reid (D) of Nevada threw the Senate into turmoil Thursday by pushing a rule change in the way the Senate approves presidential nominees. He complains that Republicans are obstructing the smooth running of government by using the filibuster – the ability of one senator to block legislation or a nomination – unless it’s overcome by 60 votes, which is next to impossible for Democrats to muster, with Republicans holding 45 seats. The Republicans contend just the opposite, that the filibuster is a protection for the minority party and that it prevents bad laws and bad appointments from approval. They accuse Senator Reid of invoking a “nuclear option” that will obliterate the Senate’s constitutional role of “advise and consent” – in which the Senate is to carefully consider and then vote on presidential judicial and executive branch appointments.

At the same time, the Bush/Perry prison is ripping off Texas taxpayers as we post, reporting one price for public consumption as a much, much lower price is paid in fact. One wonders: who gets the loose change? Who is literally skimming money, bilking the taxpayers of Texas for millions!The emerging details confirm my suspicions and my earlier articles about the Bush/Perry perversion of justice in Texas. The back to back Bush-Perry regime have made of Texas the fascist template that will most surely extend to all of the United States should the GOP ever gain control of both houses, the Presidency.

It contains pure, dried Raspberry Leaf which helps influence a quiet disposition in mares and geldings. Raspberry is a herb widely known for its benefits to mares because it is believed to reduce the effects of hormonal fluctuations. The active ingredients in Raspberry are thought to help regulate smooth muscle tone in both the reproductive and gastrointestinal tracts, relaxing muscle that is in spasm and strengthening muscle that is weak. Mare Magic’s dried leaf formula smells wonderful and horses find it very palatable."

Logan, whose power to self-heal is dwindling, has surrendered himself to alcohol and now earns a living as a chauffeur. He takes care of the ailing old Professor X whom he keeps hidden away. One day, a female stranger asks Logan to drive a girl named Laura to the Canadian border. At first he refuses, but the Professor has been waiting for a long time for her to appear. Laura possesses an extraordinary fighting prowess and is in many ways like Wolverine. She is pursued by sinister figures working for a powerful corporation; this is because they made her, with Logan's DNA. A decrepit Logan is forced to ask himself if he can or even wants to put his remaining powers to good use. It would appear that in the near-future, the times in which they were able put the world to rights with razor sharp claws and telepathic powers are now over. In the not-so-distant 2029, the entire mutant race is almost obliterated, and Logan, the invincible bestial superhero once known as the Wolverine, finds himself getting old, and his incredible healing ability significantly weakened."

You’re probably either cringing at the use of “soccer” instead of football, or wondering how a sport that sometimes ends in 0-0 ties and isn’t regularly broken up by beer commercials could possibly be the best in the world. But let’s put all that aside for a minute and talk about why this game — whatever you want to call it — is hands down, without question, the greatest sport that ever was.1. First off, it’s a global sport. Phillipe Lopez via Getty Images Soccer is the sport played most consistently around the world. It’s not sectioned off or dominated by one particular country. According to FIFA’s most recent Big Count survey, there are 265 million players actively involved in soccer around the world, roughly about 4 percent of the world’s population. Sports like American football, on the other hand, are predominantly played and watched in only one country.2. And the rules are pretty damn simple. Goldmund Lukic via Getty Images Give or take a few offsides, corner kicks and yellow versus red card rules, it’s just about getting the ball into the net without using your hands."

S. Supreme Court. This unprecedented and historical announcement is a reflection of our nation: the first African-American president nominates the first Latina to the Supreme Court, and only the third woman in its history to hold that position. But historical moments aside, the qualifications of this judicial nominee are outstanding and merit careful examination. Judge Sotomayor has more than three decades of experience bringing more federal judicial experience to the Supreme Court than any justice in 100 years and more overall judicial experience than anyone confirmed for the Court in the past 70 years. This judge is no intellectual lightweight. In her role on the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit — one of the most demanding circuits in the nation — Judge Sotomayor participated in over 3000 panel discussions and authored some 400 opinions. She has handled everything from constitutional law to complex procedural matters and complicated business organizations. There is plenty of concrete information to draw from regarding her intellectual rigor and legal acuity. A qualified Latina on our highest court will diversify judicial deliberations and bring firsthand experience to issues faced by not only ordinary Americans, but also under-served individuals and communities. This nomination will undoubtedly increase public confidence in our legal system by reinforcing our Constitution’s axiom of “equal justice under the law."

The higher the level of glucose in the blood, the higher the level of hemoglobin A1c is detectable on red blood cells. Hemoglobin A1c levels correlate with average levels of glucose in the blood over an approximately three-month time period. Normal ranges for hemoglobin A1c in people without diabetes is about 4% to 5.9%. People with diabetes with poor glucose control have hemoglobin A1c levels above 7%.

"text": "\"Managing Diabetes with Blood Glucose Control Better Diabetes Control Means Better Health Written by James Norman MD, FACS, FACEThere are two common ways that physicians assess how well diabetes is controlled: [1] Frequent measurements of blood glucose, and [2] measurement of glycohemoglobin (A1c). Each method has its good and bad points, but combined they give a fairly accurate picture of the state of glucose control in a diabetic. Most physicians will use both methods. Why Tight Blood Glucose Is Important How to Have Tight Blood Glucose Control Regulating Blood Glucose Measurement of Blood Glucose (Blood Sugar)When we speak about measuring blood glucose levels, it can be done 2 different ways. Blood glucose can be measured randomly from a sample taken at any time (called a \"\" random blood sugar \"\" or RBS). Blood glucose can also be measured in the \"\" fasting \"\" state, meaning that the person has not eaten or taken in any calories in the past 8 hours (usually this is done overnight and it is referred to as an overnight fast and is called a \"\" fasting blood sugar \"\" or FBS). In a person with normal insulin production and activity (a non-diabetic) blood sugar levels will return to \"\"fasting\"\" levels within 3 hours of eating. People with diabetes (type 1 and type 2) may not be able to get their blood glucose down this quickly after a meal or drinking a calorie-containing drink. More about this can be found on our Diagnosing Diabetes page.

Well, monitoring blood glucose levels is the cornerstone of good diabetes management. While daily monitoring is both necessary and good, it does not necessarily provide an accurate measure of how successful you are in controlling your blood sugar. The A1c blood test, sometimes called the bgb A1c or hemoglobin A1c, provides a more accurate measure of your blood sugar management over time. How does it do that? The test measures your glucose levels over a three month period. Daily monitoring, on the other hand, only test your glucose level at that given moment in time. Let’s look at how the test works, then compare your results to our hemoglobin A1c chart to see how you are doing."

"text": "Why Hemoglobin A1c Is Not a Reliable Markeron March 1, 2011 by Chris Kresser 256 comments Facebook 709 Tweet Pin 47 Google+i Stock.com/104240029Over the last few years doctors are increasingly relying on a test called hemoglobin A1c to screen for insulin resistance and diabetes. It’s more practical (and significantly cheaper) than post-meal glucose testing, and it’s less likely to be skewed by day-to-day changes than fasting blood glucose. What is hemoglobin A1c? Sugar has a tendency to stick to stuff. Anyone that has cooked with sugar can tell you that. In our bodies, sugar also sticks – especially to proteins. The theory behind the A1c test is that our red blood cells live an average of three months, so if we measure the amount of sugar stuck to these cells (which is what the hemoglobin A1c test does), it will give us an idea of how much sugar has been in the blood over the previous three months. The number reported in the A1c test result (i.e. 5.2) indicates the percentage of hemoglobin that has become glycated (stuck to sugar). Why is hemoglobin A1c unreliable? While this sounds good in theory, the reality is not so black and white."

This helps to minimize the complications caused by chronically elevated glucose levels, such as progressive damage to body organs like the kidneys, eyes, cardiovascular system, and nerves. The A1c test and e AG result give a picture of the average amount of glucose in the blood over the last few months. They can help you and your doctor know if the measures you are taking to control your diabetes are successful or need to be adjusted. The A1c test is frequently used to help newly diagnosed diabetics determine how elevated their uncontrolled blood glucose levels have been."

Setting Goals for A1c Levels The hemoglobin A1c test tells you your average level of blood sugar over the past 2 to 3 months. It's also called Hb A1c, glycated hemoglobin test, and glycohemoglobin. People who have diabetes need this test regularly to see if their levels are staying within range. It can tell if you need to adjust your diabetes medicines. The A1c test is also used to diagnose diabetes. What Is Hemoglobin? Hemoglobin is a protein found in red blood cells. It gives blood its red color, and it's job is to carry oxygen throughout your body."

"text": "Diabetes What Is A1C And What Does It Measure? March 1, 2005 Randie Little Leave a comment Share this: In the simplest terms, hemoglobin A1C (known as Hb A1c or A1C) is measured in people with diabetesto provide an index of average blood glucose for theprevious three to four months. A1C is glucose attached to hemoglobin, a proteinfound in red blood cells that transports oxygen fromthe lungs to other parts of the body. Hemoglobin is composed of four globin (protein)chains; two beta (b) and two alpha (a) chains. Each chain has a heme attached, the site for thebinding of oxygen to hemoglobin. A1C is hemoglobin that has been glycosolated,or modified by the addition of glucose. It issometimes referred to as glycosolated hemoglobin A1c or glycated hemoglobin. The glucose in A1C is irreversibly bound to one orboth beta chains of hemoglobin. Glucose binds tohemoglobin continuously throughout the lifespan ofthe red blood cell. Since the lifespan of a red bloodcell in the circulation is approximately 120 days, A1C isan index of average blood glucose over approximately120 days."

Hemoglobin is the protein molecule in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and returns carbon dioxide from the tissues back to the lungs. Hemoglobin is made up of four protein molecules (globulin chains) that are connected together. The normal adult hemoglobin (abbreviated Hgb or Hb) molecule contains two alpha-globulin chains and two beta-globulin chains. In fetuses and infants, beta chains are not common and the hemoglobin molecule is made up of two alpha chains and two gamma chains. As the infant grows, the gamma chains are gradually replaced by beta chains, forming the adult hemoglobin structure. Each globulin chain contains an important iron-containing porphyrin compound termed heme. Embedded within the heme compound is an iron atom that is vital in transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide in our blood. The iron contained in hemoglobin is also responsible for the red color of blood. Hemoglobin also plays an important role in maintaining the shape of the red blood cells."

Hemoglobin is a type of protein molecule occurring in the red blood cells of the body. Hemoglobin mainly performs the vital function of supplying the oxygen produced by the lungs in the body to the different tissues and organs and in return carry the resultant carbon dioxide back to the lungs for elimination via exhalation. All of us are aware of the fact that when sugar adheres on a specific surface, then its removal can be very difficult. This same logic is pertinent to the body as well. People with high sugar levels in the body have a tendency to have glycated hemoglobin in the blood. Sponsored link The excessive sugar levels present in the body result in attachment of the sugar to hemoglobin leading to the development of a layer of sugar on it. Red blood cells normally tend to thrive in the bloodstream for around 120 days. Thus the hemoglobin A1c range test can be used to detect the levels of blood sugar occurring in the body for almost the past 3 months."

"text": "With Type 2 diabetes, the A1C test is your litmus test. Not only does it give you a snapshot of how you’re doing, but it can serve as a wake-up call. I can recall a doctor telling me about one of his patients who got very angry with him over an A1C test. It turned out that this patient only tested his fasting blood sugar in the morning and his blood sugar was usually OK. So the patient was very upset with his A1C test results and argued that the results were wrong. But what the A1C test uncovered was that his blood sugar was consistently high throughout the day after meals. Very high. And since he didn’t test his blood sugar after meals he would have never known. So he was being misled by the fasting blood sugar levels. And the A1C test showed that his blood sugar was averaging very high over a 3 month period."

The Hemoglobin A1c (Hba1c) test is considered to be the most appropriate test for determining how well the patient is controlling his or her blood glucose level or diabetes within a 3 to 4-month period. The test also serves as a diagnostic screening for diabetes and may be ordered by the physician if a person is showing signs and symptoms of diabetes mellitus so as to confirmif indeed the disease is present. If the result yields values within the Hba1c normal range, then the patient is safe from the complications of diabetes. Sponsored link Hb A1c blood test is also called the glycosylated hemoglobin test since it measures the glucose attachment to the hemoglobin of the red blood cells. Hemoglobin is a component of the red blood cells which is responsible for transporting oxygen to the different parts of the body and carries back carbon dioxide from the cells. If the results are higher than the Hba1c normal range, hyperglycemia or high glucose levels in the blood is confirmed, and so the glucose will accumulate in the blood resulting to attachment with the hemoglobin. The red blood cells die after about 90 to 120 days (3 to 4 months), so the measurement for how much glucose is present in the blood should be done within 3 to 4 months before the old RBCsare replaced by another set of new RBCs. Knowing the Hb A1c normal range through the Hb A1c Test The Hb A1c Test makes use of a blood specimen extracted from the patient’s veins."

MBBSVerified Thanks for the question. I would say that first of all HBA1C levels are use to monitor the progress of diabetes. The definitive test for diabetes should be fasting blood glucose, random blood glucose or oral glucose tolerance tests. But your HBA1C (glycosylated hemoglobin) is on the higher side that does not mean you have diabetes so I will suggest to have fasting blood sugar or random blood sugar tests and see your physician for complete evaluation because there is risk of having diabetes.

"text": "What is 'High Minus Low - HML'High minus low (HML), also referred to as a value premium, is one of three factors in the Fama and French asset pricing model. HML accounts for the spread in returns between value and growth stocks and argues that companies with high book-to-market ratios, also known as value stocks, outperform those with lower book-to-market values, known as growth stocks. Next Up Small Minus Big - SMBBook-to-Market Ratio Factor Investing Small Firm Effect BREAKING DOWN 'High Minus Low - HML'Used to evaluate profit margins for a security over the short- and long-term, the HML provides an indication of the anticipated performance of the security in the future. The formula, high minus low, is used to calculate the associated range. HML is one of three factors in the original Fama and French’s Three Factor model, which is often used to evaluate a portfolio manager's returns. Fama and French’s Three Factor Model Founded in 1992 by Eugene Fama and Kenneth French, the Fama and French’s Three Factor model uses three factors, including HML, to attempt to explain excess returns in a manager's portfolio. This model builds off of the one factor model associated with the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), with a factor referred to as beta, by adding the factors of size, also referred to as small minus big (SMB), and value, as defined by HML. Beyond beta, Fama and French found that small company stocks often gain higher returns that those of larger companies, while value stocks gain higher returns than those associated with growth stocks. The model continues based on the assumption that higher compensation is necessary for riskier investments, which results in higher earnings potential. By examining a portfolio’s return based on the three factors, it is possible to separate the skill of the fund manager from higher returns based solely on the composition of the portfolio."

"text": "Altmetric: 0 Citations: 30More detail Article The ocular surface as part of the mucosal immune system: Conjunctival mucosa-specific lymphocytes in ocular surface pathology Harminder S Dua, Jose A P Gomes, Larry A Donoso & Peter R Laibson Eye 9, 261 – 267 (1995)doi :10.1038/eye.1995.51Download Citation Published online:01 May 1995Abstract The mucosal immune system includes mucus membranes of the gut, respiratory and urogenital tracts. Mucosa-specific, intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs), that correspond to the suppressor/cytotoxic subset and also express the human mucosal lymphocyte antigen (HML-1), are a unique component of this system. We have recently demonstrated these cells in the human conjunctiva, establishing the ocular surface as an integral part of the mucosal immune system. In this study we examined the distribution of lymphocyte subsets, with particular attention to mucosa-specific lymphocytes, in two ocular surface disorders, namely conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and ocular cicatricial pemphigoid (OCP). Cryosections of biopsy specimen were immunostained using a panel of monoclonal antibodies against different lymphocyte subsets. In CIN, the CD8/HML ratio was decreased (1 ± 0) and CD8/CD4 ratio was reversed (0.54 ± 0.21). HML-1+ cells were distributed throughout the epithelial layers of dysplastic tissue. Biopsy specimens of OCP showed normal ratios of CD8/HML (1.4 ± 0.16) but the CD8/CD4 was low (1.29 ± 0.88). Association of HML-1+ cells with the basal layer of normal epithelium and with all layers of dysplastic epithelium suggests that expression of HML-1 antigen may be induced by actively dividing cells. HML-1+ cells may have a role in immune mechanisms associated with ocular surface disorders."

Regulation is largely exerted at the initiation of replication, and methods for finding origins and termini of replication will be covered. The proteins involved in control of replication initiation in E. coli and yeast will be discussed. One solution to the problem of completing the synthesis of linear DNAs in eukaryotes will be described - that of making telomeres. Some of the factors controlling the rate of initiation of replication will be discussed briefly. Stages of DNA synthesis The synthesis of any macromolecule proceeds in three stages: initiation, elongation and termination. This is true for DNA replication as well. During initiation, DNA synthesis begins at a specific site, called an origin of replication. The circular E. coli chromosome has a single origin, called ori C . Many bacteria have circular chromosomes with single origins of replication."

"text": "\"The Lake at the North Pole, How Bad Is It? By Andrew Freedman Published: July 26th, 2013 , Last Updated: July 26th, 2013The pictures are dramatic — a camera at the North Pole Environmental Observatory, sitting in the middle of what appears to be either a lake or open ocean, at the height of the summer sea ice melt season. Set against the backdrop of the precipitous decline in sea ice cover in recent decades due in large part to global warming, this would seem to be yet another alarming sign of Arctic climate change. Image from one of the North Pole Environmental Observatory webcams, taken on Thursday, July 25. Credit: NSF's North Pole Environmental Observatory. These images have attracted media attention, such as this Atlantic Wire post and this Daily Mail story, both of which portray the images as potential signs of an intensifying Arctic meltdown. But before concluding that Arctic climate change has entered an even more ominous phase, it’s important to examine the context behind these images. First, the cameras in question, which are attached to instruments that scientists have deposited on the sea ice at the start of each spring since 2002, may have “North Pole” in their name, but they are no longer located at the North Pole. In fact, as this map below shows, they have drifted well south of the North Pole, since they sit atop sea ice floes that move along with ocean currents. Currently, the waterlogged camera is near the prime meridian, at 85 degrees north latitude."

Contents [ hide ]1 Protection from water2 Hearing protection3 History4 'Basic' type plugs5 Noise Reduction Ratings (NRR)5.1 In practice5.2 Expected updates6 Musicians' or 'Hi-Fi' earplugs7 Electronic earplugs8 Flight ear protection9 Sleep10 Health risks10.1 Long-term use11 Custom molds12 See also13 References14 External links Protection from water [ edit]Some earplugs are primarily designed to keep water out of the ear canal, especially during swimming and water sports. This type of earplug may be made of wax or moldable silicone which is custom-fitted to the ear canal by the wearer. Exostosis, or Swimmers's ear, is a condition which affects people who spend large amounts of time in water in cold climates. In addition, wind may increase the prevalence of the amount of exostosis seen in one ear versus the other dependent on the direction it originates from and the orientation of the individual to the wind. [ 1] Custom-fitted surfer's earplugs help reduce the amount of cold water and wind that is allowed to enter the external ear canal and, thus, help slow the progression of exostosis. Another condition is otitis externa, which is an infection of the outer ear canal. This form of infection differs from those commonly occurring in children behind the eardrum, which is otitis media, or a middle ear infection. This infection’s symptoms include: itchiness, redness, swelling, pain upon tugging of the pinna, or drainage."

This arc sees the attempt to stop Sasuke Uchiha from defecting to Orochimaru. It spans through volumes 20-27, [1] or more specifically, covers chapters 172 to 238 of the manga and episodes 107 to 135 of the Naruto anime. In the manga, this arc is preceded by the Search for Tsunade and followed by Kakashi Gaiden. In the anime, it is preceded by the Land of Tea Escort Mission and is followed by the Land of Rice Fields Investigation Mission . Contents [ show]Summary Lust for Power Naruto vs. Sasuke. Naruto's influence on Sasuke, though profound, was powerless to prevent Sasuke from leaving his village and friends to receive training from Orochimaru. Sasuke's decision to leave was the result of a chain of events that rekindled his hatred for his brother and desire to avenge his clan. To do so, he must claim a great amount of power, which became the centre of his entire life. Humiliated by Itachi's declaration that he was disappointingly weak, and aware of the fact that Naruto might be his superior, Sasuke challenged Naruto to a fight after Naruto returned to Konoha."

May 3, 2010 by Yumeka 30 Comments Classifying anime into genres can be tricky by itself, but coming up with a set list of all the possible anime genres is even more difficult. So today I’m going to make an attempt at examining the odds and ends of anime genres…At some point, whenever I watch a new series, I think, “What genre would I place this anime in?” or “If I were to recommend this anime to someone, especially someone unfamiliar with anime, what genres would I say it consists of?” I’ve done this many times, and I was especially focused on anime genres when I was working on my “ What is Anime? – the Visual Definition ” project in late ’07/early ’08. Since then, I’ve come up with a list of what I feel are all the possible genres for anime, sixteen in total. I’ve listed them below, along with a short explanation and a few examples of each. I still don’t consider the list perfect and I’m always open to suggestions if you have any. Just note that it’s almost always the case that an anime will fall into more than one genre."

"text": "\"Olfactory system From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search The olfactory system, or sense of smell, is the part of the sensory system used for smelling ( olfaction ). Most mammals and reptiles have a main olfactory system and an accessory olfactory system. The main olfactory system detects airborne substances, while the accessory system senses fluid-phase stimuli. The senses of smell and taste ( gustatory system) are often referred to together as the chemosensory system, because they both give the brain information about the chemical composition of objects through a process called transduction. Contents [ hide ]1 Structure1.1 Peripheral1.2 Central2 Clinical significance2.1 Causes of olfactory dysfunction2.1.1 Age2.1.2 Viral infections2.1.3 Exposure to toxic chemicals2.1.4 Head trauma2.1.5 Neurodegenerative diseases3 History4 See also5 References6 External links Structure [ edit]This diagram linearly (unless otherwise mentioned) tracks the projections of all known structures that allow for olfaction to their relevant endpoints in the human brain. Peripheral [ edit]The peripheral olfactory system consists mainly of the nostrils, ethmoid bone, nasal cavity, and the olfactory epithelium (layers of thin tissue covered in mucus that line the nasal cavity). The primary components of the layers of epithelial tissue are the mucous membranes, olfactory glands, olfactory neurons, and nerve fibers of the olfactory nerves. [ 1]Odor molecules can enter the peripheral pathway and reach the nasal cavity either through the nostrils when inhaling ( olfaction) or through the throat when the tongue pushes air to the back of the nasal cavity while chewing or swallowing (retro-nasal olfaction). [ 2] Inside the nasal cavity, mucus lining the walls of the cavity dissolves odor molecules. Mucus also covers the olfactory epithelium, which contains mucous membranes that produce and store mucus and olfactory glands that secrete metabolic enzymes found in the mucus. ["

"text": "What the Dog Nose Knows By Molly Birnbaum on June 12, 2014Share553 Tweet Pin71 Reddit Email Whats App624When I was 23, I lost my sense of smell. I was jogging in Boston. The car hit my right side, tossed me up onto the windshield and fractured the back of my skull. The impact caused my brain to bounce, severing the olfactory neurons, the lines of communication that snake from the nose in through the skull. In a split second, I couldn’t smell a thing. At the time — a time I wrote about extensively in my pre- Modern Farmer days — I didn’t realize it was possible to lose your sense of smell. More importantly, I didn’t realize how important the sense of smell actually was in my day-to-day life. I wasn’t alone in that. Most humans don’t think that much about smell. It is an amorphous, sidelined sense — one that can jump out in extreme situations (frying garlic, mowing a fresh summer lawn, changing a baby’s diaper) but is generally tossed aside in favor of sight and sound and touch."

"text": "\"Parosmia and Phantosmia Parosmia involves a distortion of the sense of smell -- the affected person reports smelling something other than the scent which is present -- for example, the person sniffs a banana but it smells like rotting flesh instead of a banana. Phantosmia involves olfactory hallucinations -- that is, there is no odorant present, but the affected person reports smelling something, usually something unpleasant. When a normal person smells an unpleasant scent, sensory adaptation takes place rather quickly -- within a few minutes the scent seems to have disappeared. The unpleasant scents in parosmia and phantosmia can, however, be very long-lasting. Given the unpleasantness and long duration of the scents reported by those afflicted with parosmia and phantosmia, I opine that these afflictions are likely much more disturbing than is simple anosmia. In fact, I have often heard persons with parosmia or phantosmia wishing that they were anosmic instead. Among the unpleasant scents often reported by those suffering from parosmia or phantosmia are the smells of death (rotting flesh), feces, vomit, garbage, and smoke. Research done at the Monell Chemical Senses Center has identified the smell of rotting flesh as the worst scent in the world, across cultures. Interestingly, the United States Department of Defense has a stake in this research, for the purpose of creating stink bombs. I have heard several descriptions of the scents experienced by persons with these conditions."

Inside your nose is the olfactory epithelium, which is a fancy word for “smell device.” In the olfactory epithelium are more than 10 million scent receptors. These receptors can distinguish up to 10,000 different smells. Tiny odor molecules pass through the nose. The receptors send messages to the brain about the smells.

"text": "\"The Olfactory System: Anatomy and Physiology The Nasal Cavity Did you know that approximately 95% of the nasal cavity has nothing to do with smell? Most of the area of the nasal cavity serves the function of cleaning the air we breathe before it reaches the lungs. It does this with the help of the respiratory mucosa, which lines the walls of the nasal cavity. Within this mucosa, small, hair-like cilia move in a wave-like motion, moving mucus to the back of the throat. Dust, bacteria, and other chemicals get trapped in the mucus and are denatured by stomach acid once the mucus is swallowed (Stoddart and Whitfield, 1984)Airflow through the nose is actually fast (250m L/sec) and fairly turbulent. Because of this, only a small fraction of the air we breathe is able to enter to the olfactory cleft. When we breathe deeply, of sniff, the speed of the air in the nostrils increases, and more of the air comes in contact with the olfactory epithelium When we have a cold, the production of mucus increases and this may obstruct the narrow openings to the olfactory tissue, making it more difficult to smell. ( Stoddart & Whitfield, 1984)Much is still unknown concerning the nasal cavity. For instance, the shape of the nasal cavity varies from person to person. For some unknown reason, the exit space from the back of the nasal cavity is larger in women than in men."

"text": "Phantosmia: That Chemical/Smoke Smell Phantosmia is smelling odors that aren’t really there. They are considered “olfactory hallucinations”, and seem to occur with neurological disorders. In my case, when the disparity between T3: T4 was too great, my sinus area and eyes would become very very dry and painful, and the phantosmia was directly related to this and my other symptoms. The odor I detected was very characteristic, and often smelled like cigarette smoke, or a burning smoke smell, progressing to a “chemical like smell” or “solvent smell”. I could empathize with people who experience multiple chemical sensitivities after going through this; living with this full time would have been horrible. In my case, these symptoms waxed and waned in direct relationship to my other TH-responsive symptoms, and so I could use this as well to monitor where I was at. I didn’t experience this symptom at all when I was on an appropriate dose of TH, and when I didn’t have too much disparity between T3/Iodine and T4 when I was not. In particular, when the sinus “dryness” and numbness, along with dry eyes increased, this symptom increased as well. One thing I’d like to mention is that I believe the word “Phantosmia”, which literally means “phantom” smells, or “smells that aren’t really there”, is very much a misnomer, at least in cases such as mine. The “odors” aren’t “phantoms” or “made up” at all."

By Tom Stafford13 March 2012The toy cupboard at my grandmother's house had a particular smell. I cannot tell you what it was, but sometimes now, as an adult, I will catch a whiff of it. The smell brings with it memories I thought were lost, memories of visits to my grandparents' house, of my grandmother, and of playing with the toys from the toy cupboard. But why do smells have this power to unlock forgotten memories? Neuroscience is a lot like a detective story – we have to look for clues to reveal the cause. But before we examine the clues, what background information do we have about the case? Complex sense What we know is that smell is the oldest sense, having its origins in the rudimentary senses for chemicals in air and water – senses that even bacteria have. Before sight or hearing, before even touch, creatures evolved to respond to chemicals around them. Sight relies on four kinds of light sensors in the human eye, cells known as receptors, which convert light into the electrochemical language of our brain, and touch relies on different receptor types for pressure (at least four of these), for heat, for cold and for pain, but this pales into comparison for what is required for detecting smell."

Question Been smelling things that no one else does lately. Its kind of a bad smell, almost like bad breath and it is very strong in my nose, especially if I take deep breaths. Is this something serious involving my brain or maybe just some kind of sinus problem? Answer I can give you me thoughts as to what might be going on, but I would recommend making an appointment with an otolaryngologist (ENT aka Ears Nose Throat) physician to get evaluated. They will be able to take a thorough history, go through your medical records with you, and do a thorough exam which I am obviously not able to do in this forum. In the ENT clinic it is not entirely uncommon to have a patient who has been suffering from CRS (chronic rhino-sinusitis) develop a crust within one of their sinuses, or within the nose itself which can have a foul odor. I don't know if you have chronic sinus problems, but this may be one explanation. If you have poly disease, or other inflammatory sinus disease that obstructs the normal outflow of mucous in your sinuses, you may also notice a foul smell from the growth of bacteria within the blocked mucous."

I had a blood test and I saw my results said I have an INR of 1.0, what does that mean ??? ? 5 following 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Also known as: Prothrombin Time, Pro Time Since PT and INR (PT/INR) evaluate the ability of blood to clot properly, they can be used to assess both bleeding and clotting tendencies. One common use is to monitor the effectiveness of blood thinning drugs such as warfarin (Coumadin). These anti-coagulant drugs help inhibit the formation of blood clots. They are prescribed on a long-term basis to patients who have experienced recurrent inappropriate blood clotting. This includes those who have had heart attacks, strokes, and deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Anti-coagulant therapy may also be given as a preventative measure in patients who have artificial heart valves and on a short-term basis to patients who have had surgeries, such as knee replacements. The anti-coagulant drugs must be carefully monitored to maintain a balance between preventing clots and causing excessive bleeding. The PT test may also be ordered on a person who is not taking anti-coagulant drugs to check for a bleeding disorder or to ensure clotting ability before surgery."

Warfarin is used to treat blood clots (such as in deep vein thrombosis - DVT or pulmonary embolus -PE) and/or to prevent new clots from forming in your body. Preventing harmful blood clots helps to reduce the risk of a stroke or heart attack. Conditions that increase your risk of developing blood clots include a certain type of irregular heart rhythm ( atrial fibrillation ), heart valve replacement, recent heart attack, and certain surgeries (such as hip/ knee replacement).

Coumadin is what they call a \"\"Narrow Therapeutic Index\"\" drug which means that there is a small window of margin between the toxic dose and the effective dose. You know how INRs are very sensitive and changing brand name, generic names, etc. can affect INR and risk of bleed. Once you are on Coumadin, don´t change brand names, stay on Coumadin! Jantoven is another brand name drug for Coumadin. Each company makes their drugs a little different.

Follow 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: INR stands for International Normalized Ratio. As its name suggests, one INR result can be compared to another INR result regardless of how or where the result was obtained. So, the INR is really just the standard unit used to report the result of a PT test. There are a few things worth mentioning about the INR. First, an individual whose blood clots normally and who is not on anticoagulation should have an INR of approximately 1. The higher your INR is, the longer it takes your blood to clot. In other words, as the INR increases above a given level, the risk of bleeding and bleeding-related events increases."

No matter why or for how long you use a blood thinning medicine, it is very important to take it safely. Doing so will help you stay healthy and avoid unnecessary risks. But we know it’s not easy. A recent survey of 400 patients taking blood thinners found that — even though most of them thought they were taking the medication safely — many of them lacked important information and had a hard time doing the things they were supposed to do. In fact, most of them (93%) told us that they had experienced a problem related to taking their blood thinner.

A low blood glucose level can result from starvation or incorrect insulin or oral hypoglycaemic (blood sugar lowering) drug administration.

The following information explains the options available to patients for this type of routine blood testing, with emphasis on the option of at-home or patient self-testing. This information does not take the place of instruction or guidance received from your personal physician or healthcare team. You should always consult with your doctor about your healthcare and anticoagulation management needs. Understanding Dangerous Blood Clots Dangerous blood clots can occur in a person’s arteries or veins – the vessels that circulate blood through our bodies. Arteries move oxygenated and nutrient-rich blood from the heart to other parts of the body. Veins move deoxygenated blood away from the body’s organs and back to the heart. Venous Blood Clots: Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism When a blood clot forms in a vein, it can prevent the return of blood to the heart, and cause pain and swelling as blood collects behind the clot. Deep vein thrombosis or DVT is a clot in a major vein of the leg or arm. Left untreated, a DVT can grow or break off and cause a pulmonary embolism or PE, a blood clot in the lung, which can be life-threatening."

Shojania, Stephanie Magnan, Michelle Tubman and Thomas E. Feasby Tweet Abstract Excessive wait times for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies are a major problem in the Canadian healthcare system. To determine how requests for MRI studies are managed, the authors performed a survey of public MRI facilities in Canada. Ninety-six per cent had some method to triage MRI requests. However, only 42% had documented guidelines for prioritization, and none employed quality assurance methods to ensure that guidelines were followed. Target timelines for each prioritization category varied widely. Sixteen per cent of centres were not able to meet their target timelines for any prioritization category, and 45% of centres met target times only for some prioritization categories. Strategies for dealing with wait lists primarily involved attempts to increase capacity. No centres attempted to reduce wait times by decreasing inappropriate requests. There appears to be a need to standardize MRI wait list management given the variation in management practices and wait times observed. Excessive wait times for some healthcare interventions have caught the attention of governments, providers and the public (Sanmartin et al."

"text": "Science, Tech, Math ›Math Understanding the Interquartile Range in Statistics Share Flipboard Email Print Two boxplots with the same median, but different ranges and interquartile ranges. C. K. Taylorby Courtney Taylor Updated June 07, 2017The interquartile range (IQR) is the difference between the first quartile and third quartile. The formula for this is: IQR = Q 3 - Q 1There are many measurements of the variability of a set of data. Both the range and standard deviation tell us how spread out our data is. The problem with these descriptive statistics is that they are quite sensitive to outliers. A measurement of the spread of a dataset that is more resistant to the presence of outliers is the interquartile range. Definition of Interquartile Range As seen above, the interquartile range is built upon the calculation of other statistics. Before determining the interquartile range, we first need to know the values of the first quartile and third quartile. ( Of course the first and third quartiles depend upon the value of the median). Once we have determined the values of the first and third quartiles, the interquartile range is very easy to calculate."

O’Donoghue Surviving the gauntlet: Modern challenges in cardiovascular drug approval and implementation American Heart Journal, Volume 169, Issue 2, February 2015, Pages 191-193PDF ( 142KB)Background The use of evidence-based therapies has improved the outcome of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), but there is a time lag between the generation of clinical evidence and its application in routine clinical practice. We sought to quantify temporal lags in the lifecycle of American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) class IA ACS therapies. Methods Using current and historical ACC/AHA guideline publications, we retrieved publication dates of pivotal clinical trials (PCTs) and class IA guideline-recommended therapies for patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and unstable angina (UA)/non-STEMI (NSTEMI). Clinical practice uptake data for each therapy were retrieved from the National Registry for Myocardial Infarction, Can Rapid Risk Stratification of Unstable Angina Patients Suppress Adverse Outcomes with Early Implementation of the ACC/AHA Guidelines, and Acute Coronary Treatment and Intervention Outcomes Network Registry–Get with the Guidelines, which are registries containing publicly available peer-reviewed data. Descriptive data were calculated and compared for each phase of the evidence lifecycle for both STEMI and UA/NSTEMI drug classifications. Results We identified 11 class IA– and 4 class IB/IC–recommended therapies for acute, inhospital, and discharge use for patients with STEMI or UA/NSTEMI. The median time lags were 2 years (interquartile range [IQR], 1-4 years) from PCT to practice guideline recommendation, 14 years (IQR, 11-15 years) from guideline recommendation to 90% practice uptake, and overall, a 16-year median (IQR, 13-19 years) from PCT to 90% practice uptake. Conclusions The time of PCT publication to meaningful uptake of class IA ACS therapies into clinical practice took a median of 16 years. This significant time lag indicates systemic barriers to the translation of therapeutics into routine clinical practice. Previous article Next article The use of evidence-based therapeutics for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in the recent decades has been associated with improved patient outcomes, 1 so there is reason to believe that accelerating knowledge dissemination and application of these life-saving therapeutics into clinical practice may improve patient outcomes and potentially reduce health care costs."

Objective The objective of this study was to evaluate the frequency of medical interventions in a cohort of patients with MPS I, II, and VI on ERT to estimate the impact of direct medical costs associated with the treatment of MPS and compare its frequency with that observed among patients not on ERT. Methods This was a multicenter study using a retrospective design including a convenience sampling of Brazilian patients with MPS I, II, and VI. Data on the number and type of medical appointments, hospital admissions, medications used, and surgical procedures performed per patient were obtained through a review of medical records, as were data on ERT. These variables were then compared between patients undergoing ERT and those not on ERT. Results Thirty-four patients (27 on ERT) were included in the study. Overall, between-group differences were found in median absolute frequencies of hospital admissions and surgical procedures per year, both of which were higher in the non-ERT group. Furthermore, we observed a high rate of failure to record medication dosage regimens. Conclusions Our findings suggest that Brazilian patients with MPS I, II, and VI who are on ERT undergo fewer medical interventions, which can lead to a reduction in direct medical costs to the publicly funded health care system. The cost of ERT, however, is extremely high and probably outweighs this reduction."

The standard deviation is usually quoted alongside the mean, as a matter of convention. However, it rarely tells you anything useful about the dispersion of the data in the sample or the underlying population, and probably never tells you anything more useful than quoting percentiles or an interquartile range. So why do we use it at all? One use that is probably justifiable is calculating effect sizes such as Cohen's d. But is anyone prepared to defend its routine appearance in tables of descriptive statistics, and it's disempowering appearance on undergrad stats courses?

It is computed as one half the difference between the 75th percentile [often called (Q3)] and the 25th percentile (Q1). The formula for semi-interquartile range is therefore: (Q3-Q1)/2. You have 10 samples. Q1 occurs at 25% of 10 = 2.5 . So you average the 2nd and 3rd sample. = 40 Q3 occurs at 75% of 10 = 7.5 . So you average the 7th and 8th sample = 7.45. Then you calculate the semi-IQR based on the formula above. Source (s):http://davidmlane.com/hyperstat/A48607.h...

Isoxsuprine is a β 2adrenoreceptor agonist that causes direct relaxation of uterine and vascular smooth muscle via β 2receptors. [ 5]Contents [ hide ]1 Use1.1 In humans1.2 In horses2 References Use [ edit]In humans [ edit]Isoxsuprine it is used in humans for treatment of premature labor, i.e. a tocolytic, [6] and as a vasodilator for the treatment of cerebral vascular insufficiency, Raynaud's phenomenon, and other conditions. [ 7]Isoxsuprine may increase the heart rate, cause changes in blood pressure, and irritate the GI tract. It should therefore be used with caution if combined with other drugs that affect blood pressure, such as sedatives and anesthetic drugs. In horses [ edit]Isoxsuprine is most commonly used to treat hoof-related problems in the horse, most commonly for laminitis and navicular disease, as its effects as a vasodilator are thought to increase circulation within the hoof to help counteract the problems associated with these conditions. Isoxsuprine is given orally, and many horses find the pills quite palatable. [ 8] Isoxsuprine is a prohibited class B drug in FEI -regulated competition, and is often prohibited by other equine associations. It may be detected in the urine for several weeks or months following administration. It is therefore important to check the drug-rules within an animal's given competitive organization, before administering the drug."

Skaar DDS, MS, MBA a Heidi L. O'Connor MS b Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.oooo.2011.12.009 Get rights and content Objective Recognizing drugs with serious adverse experience (AE) potential in an aging population would assist practitioners in preventing drug safety issues. This study identifies drugs with potential for causing serious AEs, describes the AEs, and estimates prevalent use among older adults visiting the dentist. Study Design Drugs with serious AE risk for older adults were identified with the use of the Beers criteria. Analyses of older adults visiting the dentist using the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey tested associations between demographic and health-related variables and use of these drugs. Potentially serious drug-related AEs are described. Results More than 3 in 10 older adults visiting the dentist were prescribed a Beers-criteria drug. Commonly prescribed Beers-criteria drugs used in dentistry include benzodiazepines and long-acting nonsteroidal antiinflammatory analgesics. Conclusions Awareness of potentially harmful drug-related AEs, their clinical consequences, and prescribing frequency for older adults will assist dentists in clinically managing patients and avoiding inappropriate prescribing. Previous article Next article Statement of Clinical Relevance Awareness of potentially harmful drug-related adverse experiences, their clinical consequences, and the frequency with which the implicated drugs are prescribed to older adults will assist oral health providers in clinically managing patients and avoiding inappropriate prescribing. Emerging demographic and clinical trends suggest that oral health care for community-dwelling older adults will be increasingly important for practicing dental professionals."

FDA Status Pentoxifylline is commercially available as a tablet ER 400mg Search for Available Dosage Forms Basic Information Pentoxifylline is used in humans to treat peripheral vascular diseases and cerebrovascular disease caused by impairment of the microcirculation. It is similar chemically to theophylline and caffeine. Although its mechanism of action is not well understood, pentoxifylline is thought both to decrease the viscosity of blood and to increase the flexibility of red blood cells. Dogs Pentoxifylline is used in dogs to improve microcirculation and, as a consequence, diminish inflammation and enhance healing of many kinds of skin lesions including: ulcerative dermatosis of Collies and Shelties, dermatomyositis, ear margin seborrhea, atopic disease, and other skin diseases with underlying vasculitis. Healing associated with microvascular compromise may take weeks to months before any appreciable difference is seen. There are some differences of opinion regarding dosing frequency. The standard recommendation is once a day or every other day although recent pharmacokinetic studies performed in the dog support dosing three times a day. Horses Pentoxifylline is used to treat endotoxemia, laminitis, and navicular disease in horses. Research in other species has shown improved survival rates for animals treated with this drug during sepsis."

Previous Thread Next Threadaucomptoir Senior Member Anglet Australia/ English Hello. Is there a Fr equivalent for the term \"\"cabin fever\"\"? It basically means bored out of your mind, or just really restless, by being stuck in the same place, normally the same room. I don't know where it comes from, maybe from sailors, or people that were snowed in and confined to their forest cabins for ages. Anyway, it's a pretty good expression to use when you are restless or bored out of your mind from being in the same place all day.aucomptoir, Mar 6, 2007 #1Ru KSenior Member Outside Paris English/lives France There's \"\"j'ai le vague à l'âme', but it's not really the same thing. \"\" J'ai besoin de prendre l'air\"\" isn't the same either.

The people left to right are: Janice Richardson, Joleen Kelleher, Betty Barats, Nancy Southern, Kamala Harrison, Kiko Harrison In front: Fredricka Kundig Photo by Anthony Richardson Understanding weather patterns is an essential tool for successful gardening. In the mid-1990’s, when I moved from Oregon to northwestern Washington, I felt surprisingly unsure of myself when I began my first gardens. I no longer had the inner knowing that I had relied upon to make some of the most basic choices for plant placement. It took awhile to accept that my physical “uprooting” had a psychological component to it–and that it would take time and experience to find my way of knowing again. Many people who fall in love with these islands, do so in the summer months. When they move here, they find a big surprise when the weather changes. We arrived in the early fall and before long, we started to notice a significant decrease in daylight. Mornings and late afternoons were becoming dark as night. Each day, the sun descended on the horizon until it finally disappeared behind an unobtrusive hill to the south of us."

Exercising regularly and getting plenty of sleep are two of the best things you can do. However, there are also plenty of foods that speed metabolism, so adding them to your diet may give you the extra edge to lose more weight. Below is a list of eleven foods that help speed up metabolism. Think of these foods as support mechanisms on your path towards fat loss, as any diet that keeps the pounds off requires sustained effort and exercise. Foods That Speed Up Your Metabolism Length: 4 minutes11 Foods That Speed Up Your Metabolism Hot Peppers Whole Grains: Oatmeal and Brown Rice Broccoli Soups Green Tea Apples and Pears Spices Citrus Fruits Foods High in Calcium Foods High in Omega-3’s Purified Water1. Hot Peppers Jalapeno, habanero, cayenne and other forms of spicy peppers directly boost metabolism and circulation. In fact, eating hot peppers not only speeds up your metabolism, it also reduces cravings. This is related to its capsaicin content, a compound that stimulates the body’s pain receptors, temporarily increasing blood circulation and metabolic rate. If you have ever experienced a bout of intense sweating after eating a particularly hot tamale, this shouldn’t come as a surprise."

The school's speech therapist now says Michael has dyspraxia and not apraxia. I really do Answer The confusion between the difference in apraxia and dyspraxia is not uncommon. In fact, the literature as well as many professionals use these terms interchangeably. Often, the debate among professionals leads to the misuse or overuse of the terms. However, the literature does attempt to make a distinction between the two terms. Apraxia is commonly defined as difficulty in planning and executing motor speech which is not the result of any muscular disturbance (Love, 2000; Portwood, 2000; Yorkston, Beukelman, Strand, & Bell, 1999). Apraxia can occur in the oral area and/or in the limbs."

Television Airdates: January 4, 1984-May 31, 1992Created by: Reinhold Weege Seasons/Episodes aired9, 193 episodes total Night Court is an American television sitcom series that aired on NBC-TV from January 4, 1984 to May 31, 1992. The setting was the night shift of a Manhattan court, presided over by the young, unorthodox Judge Harold T. \"\"Harry\"\" Stone (played by Harry Anderson ). It was created by comedy writer Reinhold Weege, who had previously worked on the long-running ABC-TV sitcom series Barney Miller in the 1970s and early 1980s. Contents [ show]Background Edit Night Court, according to the first season DVD, was created without comedian/magician Harry Anderson in mind, but Anderson auditioned with the claim that he was Harry Stone. Anderson had developed a following with his performances on Saturday Night Live and made several successful appearances as con man \"\"Harry the Hat\"\" on another NBC sitcom, Cheers. ( For the first several years of its run, Night Court aired on NBC Thursday nights after Cheers .) In later seasons, while Anderson remained the key figure, John Larroquette became the breakout personality, winning a number of awards and many fans for his performance as the lecherous Dan Fielding . The comedy style on Night Court changed as the series progressed. During its initial seasons, the show was often compared to Barney Miller. In addition to being created by a writer of that show, Night Court (like Barney Miller) was set in New York City, featured quirky, often dry humor, and dealt with a staff who tried to cope with a parade of eccentric, often neurotic criminals and complainants."

The Greek language has contributed to the English vocabulary in five main ways:vernacular borrowings, transmitted orally through Vulgar Latin directly into Old English, e.g., 'butter' (Old English butere from Latin butyrum < βούτυρον), or through French, e.g., 'ochre'.learned borrowings from classical Greek texts, e.g., 'physics' (< Latin physica < Greek τὰ φυσικά);a few borrowings via Arabic scientific and philosophical writing, e.g., 'alchemy' (< χημεία);coinages in post-classical Latin or modern languages using classical Greek roots, e.g., 'telephone' (< τῆλε + φωνή) or a mixture of Greek and other roots, e.g., 'television' (< Greek τῆλε + English 'vision' < Latin visio ); these are often shared among the modern European languages, including Modern Greek;direct borrowings from Modern Greek, e.g., bouzouki. The post-classical coinages are by far the most numerous of these. Contents [ hide ]1 Indirect and direct borrowings2 Greek as an intermediary3 Written form of Greek words in English4 Pronunciation5 Inflectional endings and plurals6 Verbs7 Phrases8 Calques and translations9 Statistics10 See also11 Notes12 References13 External links Indirect and direct borrowings [ edit]Since the living Greek and English languages were not in direct contact until modern times, borrowings were necessarily indirect, coming either through Latin (through texts or various vernaculars), or from Ancient Greek texts, not the living language. Some Greek words were borrowed into Latin and its descendants, the Romance languages. English often received these words from French. Their phonetic and orthographic form has sometimes changed considerably. For instance, place was borrowed both by Old English and by French from Latin platea, itself borrowed from Greek πλατεία (ὁδός) 'broad (street)'; the Italian piazza and Spanish plaza have the same origin, and have been borrowed into English in parallel. The word olive comes through the Romance from the Latin word olīva, which in turn comes from the Greek ἐλαίϝᾱ ( elaíwā ). ["

Please add a reason or a talk parameter to this template to explain the issue with the article. Wiki Project Sweden may be able to help recruit an expert. ( December 2011)This is a list of Swedish noble families, which are divided into two main groups: Introduced nobility, i.e. noble families introduced at the Swedish House of Nobility Unintroduced nobility, i.e. noble families which have not been introduced at the Swedish House of Nobility, mostly consisting of foreign nobility resident in Sweden, but also including some families ennobled by the Swedish monarchs and some other groups. The introduced nobility is divided into three ranks: Comital families, Baronial families and untitled noble families (in addition, members of the royal family hold ducal titles). The unintroduced nobility consists of families of princely, ducal, marquis, comital, baronial, and untitled noble rank. This group notably includes several branches of the House of Bernadotte with foreign (princely and comital) noble titles (such as Count of Wisborg ). The vast majority of both introduced and unintroduced noble families are untitled.

The Twelve Imams are the spiritual and political successors to Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam, in the Twelver branch of Shia Islam. [ 1] According to Twelver theology, the successors to Muhammad are infallible human beings, who rule justly over the community and maintain and interpret sharia and undertake the esoteric interpretation of the Quran. The words and deeds of Muhammad and the Imams guide the community. For this, the Imams must be free from error and sin and chosen by divine decree— nass —through the Prophet. [ 2] [3]Shi'a believe that divine wisdom— 'Aql —is the source of the souls of the Prophets and Imams and gives them esoteric knowledge— hikmah —and that their suffering is a means by which their devotees may acquire divine grace. [ 1] [4] [5] The Imam is not the recipient of divine revelation, but has a close relationship with God, who guides him, allowing the Imam in turn to guide others. The Imamat, or belief in the divine guide, is a fundamental belief in Shia Islam and is based on the concept that God would not leave humanity without access to divine guidance. ["

"text": "\"Jerusalem Facts Jerusalem, Israel: General Facts about Jerusalem Jerusalem, by virtue of the number and diversity of people who have held it sacred, may be considered the most holy city in the world. Jerusalem is important to the Jewish people because it is Ir Ha-Kodesh (the Holy City), the Biblical Zion, the City of David, the site of Solomon's Temple, and the eternal capital of the Israelite nation. Jerusalem is important to Christians because it is where the young Jesus impressed the sages at the Jewish Temple, where he spent the last days of his ministry, and where the Last Supper, the Crucifixion and the Resurrection took place. Jerusalem is important to Muslims because it is where the prophet Muhammad ascended to heaven. After the holy sites of Mecca and Medina, Jerusalem is the third most sacred place of Islam. While highly charged with intense religious devotion and visited by countless pilgrims and sages, Jerusalem has also been ravaged by thirty centuries of warfare and strife. Jerusalem is a holy place with a rich and ancient history. History of Jerusalem The earliest traces of human settlement in the Jerusalem area are from the late Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age (3000 BCE). Excavations have shown that a town existed on the south side of Mount Moriah, also called Temple Mount. The name of this town was Urusalim, a word probably of Semitic origin that apparently means 'Foundation of Shalem' or 'Foundation of God'."

B ut there are many other notable voices among the poets, going back at least to Sappho of Lesbos, the first great lyric poet we know by name. Sappho was apparently the first \"\"make love, not war\"\" poet, because eons ago she wrote a poem in which she said that other people praised warriors in flashing armor and fleets of ships, but for her what really mattered was the person she loved. W. H. Auden once said that poetry makes nothing happen, but I believe the opposite is actually true: poetry and song lyrics make e very thing happen in the realm of social progress. Why?"

As most of the Israelites returning from the captivity belonged to the tribe of Judah, they came to be called Jews and their land Judea. In Tobit 1:18 the name is applied to the old kingdom of Judah. For a general description of the physical geography and early history of this region see JUDAH. The limits of this district varied greatly, extending as the Jewish population increased, but in many periods with very indefinite boundaries. Under the Persian empire, Judea (or Judah) was a district administered by a governor who, like Zerubbabel ( Haggai 1:14; Haggai 2:2 ), was probably usually a Jew. Even as late as Judas Maccabeus, Hebron and its surroundings-the very heart of old Judah was under the domination of the Edomites, whom, however, Judas conquered (1 Maccabees 5:65); in the time of his brother Jonathan (145 B. C.), three tetrarchies of Samaria, Aphaerema, Lydda and Ramathaim, were added to Judea (1 Maccabees 10:30, 38; 11:34); in some passages it is referred to at this time as the \"\"land of Judah\"\" (Iouda) (1 Maccabees 10:30, 33, 37). The land was then roughly limited by what may be called the \"\"natural boundaries of Judah\"\" (see JUDAH). Strabo (xvi.11, 21) extends the name Judea to include practically all Palestine; as does Luke (4:44 m; 23:05; Acts 2:9; Acts 10:37, etc.). In several New Testament references ( Matthew 4:25 Mark 1:5; Mark 3:7 Luke 5:17John 3:22 Acts 1:8 ), Judea is contrasted with its capital Jerusalem."

"text": "Home » Learn More » Glossary of Spinal Terms » Lumbosacral radiculopathy A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y ZLumbosacral Radiculopathy Definition Lumbosacral radiculopathy is a broad term referring to a range of symptoms associated with the nerves of the lumbosacral plexus in the lower back. The lumbosacral plexus encompasses the nerves that exit the spinal cord at the lumbar, sacral and coccygeal regions of the spine. Radiculopathy occurs when an anatomical abnormality has caused one or more of these nerves to become irritated, pinched or impinged. How do I know if I have lumbosacral radiculopathy? If a nerve within the lumbosacral region is compressed, it can produce symptoms that include localized pain, pain that radiates down the lower back and into the legs and feet, tingling, numbness and muscle weakness. The part of the body displaying the symptoms will depend on which nerve or nerves are being compressed. In general, acute lower back pain as a result of muscle strain or ligament sprain does not produce radiculopathy. What does produce it is degeneration of an intervertebral disc or the joints of the spine. Potential causes of lumbosacral radiculopathy include: Herniated disc – nucleus material extrudes through a tear or crack in the fibrous outer wall of the disc Bulging disc – the outer wall of the disc is forced out of its normal boundary by nucleus material but the wall remains intact Spondylolisthesis – slippage of one vertebra over another vertebra Facet disease – degeneration of the facet joints, where the vertebrae connect Bone spurs – also known as osteophytes, these bony growths are associated with osteoarthritis and are the body’s response to bone degeneration Conservative Treatment Can Help Most people who experience lumbosacral radiculopathy do not resort to surgery for relief. Conservative treatment, including physical therapy, exercise, rest and pain medication, usually is enough to manage the pain and other symptoms."

"text": "\"Overview of lower extremity peripheral nerve syndromes Author: Seward B Rutkove, MD Section Editor: Jeremy M Shefner, MD, Ph D Deputy Editor: April F Eichler, MD, MPHINTRODUCTIONThis topic provides an overview of lower extremity peripheral nerve syndromes. Peripheral nerve syndromes involving the upper extremities are discussed separately. ( See \"\"Overview of upper extremity peripheral nerve syndromes\"\" . ) ANATOMYNerve roots emerge from the spinal column from the L2 to S4 levels through the neural foramina and join to form a complex entity known as the lumbosacral plexus ( figure 1 ). Unlike the brachial plexus, in which the anatomy is delineated through trunks, divisions, and cords, the lumbosacral plexus has only two main components: the lumbar plexus (made up of nerve fibers from the L2 through L5 roots) and the sacral plexus (made up of nerve fibers from the S1 through S4 roots). The largest nerve that emerges from the lumbar plexus is the femoral nerve, which descends beneath the inguinal ligament before dividing into a number of smaller branches innervating the anterior thigh musculature and skin ( figure 2 ). One pure sensory branch, the saphenous nerve, continues down the medial leg to the arch of the foot. Although the subject of some disagreement, the iliopsoas muscle is innervated by the femoral nerve or a small nerve of its own that travels alongside the femoral. The obturator nerve also emerges from the lumbar plexus, descending more medially than the femoral, exiting the pelvis through the obturator foramen where it innervates the thigh adductors and a small cutaneous area in the medial thigh. A small nerve, the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve, also has its origin directly from the plexus."

Definition/Description Lumbar radiculopathy is a disease in wich pain is caused in the lower back and hip radiating down the back of the thigh into the leg. It is caused by damage to one of the lower spines, ranging from L1 to S1. This damage is caused by compression of the nerve roots which exit the spine. The compression can lead to tingling, radiating pain, numbness, paraesthesia and occasional shooting pains. Radiculopathy can occur in any part of the spine, but it is most common in the lower back (lumbar radiculopathy) and in the neck (cervical radiculopathy). It is less commonly found in the middle portion of the spine (thoracic radiculopathy). [ 1] (LOE 1B) Radiculopathy is not the same as “radicular pain” or “nerve root pain”."

"text": "Electrodiagnostic Studies (NCS/EMG) cpt 95900, 95903,95937, 95874NCSs measure action potentials recorded over the nerve or from an innervated muscle. Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV), one aspect of NCS, is measured between two sites of stimulation or between a stimulus and a recording site. It is axiomatic that neurodiagnostic studies are an extension of the history and physical examination of the patient and must be performed as part of a face-to-face encounter. Obtaining and interpreting nerve conduction velocities requires extensive interaction between the performing physician and patient and is most effective when both obtaining raw data and interpretation are performed together on a real-time basis. Results of NCV reflect on the integrity and function of: 1) the myelin sheath (Schwann cell-derived insulation covering an axon); and, 2) the axon (an extension of the neuronal cell body) of a nerve. Axonal damage or dysfunction generally results in loss of nerve or muscle potential amplitude, whereas demyelination leads to prolongation of conduction time. The following are examples of appropriate clinical settings where nerve conduction studies are helpful in diagnosing: Focal neuropathies or compressive lesions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathies or root lesions for localization. Traumatic nerve lesions for diagnosis and prognosis. Diagnosis or confirmation of suspected generalized neuropathies, such as diabetic, uremic, metabolic, inflammatory or immune. Repetitive nerve stimulation in diagnosis of neuromuscular junction disorders such as myasthenia gravis and myasthenic syndromes."

"text": "\"Brain & Nervous System Neurological Symptoms & Diagnosis Injury to Spinal Nerve Roots The Anatomy of Neck and Back Pain By Peter Pressman, MDUpdated February 13, 2018Share Pin Email Print The vast majority of nerves that send information to and from the brain relay that information through the spinal cord, which is wrapped in the protective bone of vertebrae, between which openings (foramina) permit the passage of nerve roots. Those nerves go on to form the peripheral nervous system. Sometimes these nerve roots can be compressed by a bony growth from the vertebrae, or the slipping of one vertebra over the other narrows the opening (foramen) through which a nerve runs. When this happens, the nerve root is injured in what is called a radiculopathy. The resulting symptoms vary, depending on the location of the nerve root. Anatomy of the Spinal Column While there is some variation between individuals, for the most part, we all have seven vertebrae in our neck, called cervical vertebrae. Below these are the thoracic vertebrae (attached to ribs), and then five lumbar vertebrae. The last lumbar vertebra is attached to the sacrum, a large bone that helps make up the pelvic circle. The vertebrae are usually abbreviated down to a number and letter, counting from the top of the spine to the bottom. For example, C5 means the fifth cervical vertebra from the top of the spine."

Yes, because every action assigned to the sartorius is also performed by other muscles. And it's relatively weak. Given its small diameter, the sartorius doesn't generate much force compared to its neighbors in the thigh. Perhaps its most important function is protection. In the anatomy lab, pulling the sartorius to one side reveals two major blood vessels on their way to and from the calf - the femoral artery and femoral vein. Covering those vessels with a muscle presumably offers better protection than mere skin, fat, and connective tissue."

The human spinal cord extends from the medulla oblongata and continues through the conus medullaris near the first or second lumbar vertebrae, terminating in a fibrous extension known as the filum terminale . It is about 45 cm long in men and 43 cm long in women, ovoid-shaped, and is enlarged in the cervical and lumbar regions. In cross-section, the peripheral region of the cord contains neuronal white matter tracts containing sensory and motor neurons.

It also gives off a lateral cutaneous branch that supplies sensory innervation to the skin over the hip.

"text": "\"The psoas major muscle (often referred to as the psoas muscle ) is one of the muscles of the posterior abdominal wall and lies not in the retroperitoneum but posteriorly in the iliopsoas compartment. Summaryorigin: vertebral bodies, intervertebral discs and transverse processes of T12 to L5insertion: lesser trochanter of the femurinnervation: branches of the L1-L3 roots of the lumbar plexusarterial supply : lumbar arteries, iliolumbar artery, deep circumflex iliac artery, external iliac artery, femoral arteryaction: lateral flexion of the trunk; stabiliser and flexor of the hip Gross anatomy The psoas muscle arises from the transverse processes, lateral aspects of the vertebral bodies and intervertebral discs of the T12-L5 vertebral column. It fuses with the iliacus muscle to form the iliopsoas muscle at the level of L5-S2 and passes inferiorly, deep to the inguinal ligament, to insert into the lesser trochanter of the femur 1-3. The lumbar plexus is embedded within the muscle and its branches emerge from it 3:anterior aspect: genitofemoral nervelateral border: iliohypogastric, ilioinguinal, lateral femoral cutaneous and femoral nervesmedial border: obturator nerve and lumbosacral trunk The psoas muscle is enclosed by the psoas fascia and it is this that retains the pus in a psoas abscess 3 . The muscle comes to lie medial to and fuses with the iliacus muscle, such that inferiorly the two are often referred to together as the iliopsoas muscle 1-2 . Innervation The psoas muscle is innervated by the lumbar plexus via branches from L1-L3 (mainly L2) 3. Arterial Supplyupper part: lumbar arteriesmiddle part: iliolumbar artery (main artery to muscle), deep circumflex and external iliac arterieslower part: branches of the femoral artery Action The action of this muscle is complex, acting to both laterally flex the lumbar spine as well as stabilise and flex the thigh 1-2 . Variant anatomyasymmetry of the psoas major muscle, which is usually not clinically significant 4History and etymology From the Greek \"\"psoa\"\" meaning \"\"loin\"\" 3. The psoas muscle is referred to as the tenderloin by butchers. Correct terminology is psoas major muscle (as opposed to just psoas muscle) to differentiate it from the psoas minor muscle."

"text": "Nerve plexus Superimposed image of the spinal plexuses on a human back. Identifiers FMA 5901Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy [ edit on Wikidata]A nerve plexus is a plexus (branching network) of intersecting nerves. A nerve plexus is composed of afferent and efferent fibers that arise from the merging of the anterior rami of spinal nerves and blood vessels. There are five spinal nerve plexuses, except in the thoracic region, as well as other forms of autonomic plexuses, many of which are a part of the enteric nervous system. The nerves that arise from the plexuses have both sensory and motor functions. These functions include muscle contraction, the maintenance of body coordination and control, and the reaction to sensations such as heat, cold, pain, and pressure. There are several plexuses in the body, including: Spinal Plexuses Cervical plexus - serves the head, neck and shoulders Brachial plexus - serves the chest, shoulders, arms and hands Lumbar plexus - serves the back, abdomen, groin, thighs, knees, and calves Sacral plexus - serves the pelvis, buttocks, genitals, thighs, calves, and feet Coccygeal plexus - serves a small region over the coccyx Autonomic Plexuses Celiac plexus (solar plexus) - serves internal organs Auerbach's plexus (myenteric plexus) - serves the gastrointestinal tract Meissner's plexus (submucosal plexus) - serves the gastrointestinal tract Pharyngeal plexus of vagus nerve - serves the palate and pharynx Cardiac plexus - serves the heart Contents [ hide ]1 Spinal plexuses1.1 Cervical plexus1.2 Brachial plexus1.3 Lumbar plexus1.4 Sacral plexus1.5 Coccygeal plexus2 Autonomic plexuses3 Sources4 References5 External links Spinal plexuses [ edit]Spinal nerve The following table shows the nerves that arise from each spinal plexus as well as the spinal level each plexus arises from.

Although continuous with the brain, the spinal cord begins where nervous tissue leaves the cranial cavity at the level of the foramen magnum. The spinal cord is not uniform in diameter along its length. In the neck region, a thickening in the spinal cord, called the cervical enlargement, occurs in the region associated with the origins of spinal nerves from the cervical spines to thoracic spine T1 giving rise to nerves to the upper limbs. A similar thickening in the lower back, the lumbosacral enlargement, occurs in the region associated with the origins of spinal nerves thoracic spine T 11 to Sacral S3 giving rise to nerves to the lower limbs. The spinal cord tapers to a point and ends near the intervertebral disc that separates the first (L1) and second lumbar (L2) vertebrae, adults, although it can end as high as thoracic vertebra T12 or as low as the disc between vertebrae lumbar vertebrae L2 and L3. From this point, nervous tissue, including axons of both motor and sensory neurons, extends downward to become spinal nerves at the remaining lumbar and sacral levels forming a structure called the cauda equina (horse’s tail). The distal end of the cord (the conus medullaris) is cone shaped. A fine filament of connective tissue (the pial part of the filum terminale) continues inferiorly from the apex of the conus medullaris."

"text": "A differentiated approach in lateral spine surgery: Oblique lateral interbody fusion (OLIF at L2-L5)Written by Laura Dyrda | May 26, 2015 | Print | Email This article is sponsored by Medtronic. Lateral spine surgery has been an effective procedure for the past decade; now, Oblique Lateral Interbody Fusion (OLIF at L2-L5) gives surgeons lateral access while preserving the psoas and avoiding the iliac crest. Three spine surgeons discuss the oblique lateral approach. Q: How have your surgical techniques dealt with the psoas over your career? Kamal Woods, MD, CFO, Advanced Neurosurgery Associates, Murrieta, Calif.: Early in my neurosurgical training, I did not have a lot of exposure to the retroperitoneal space, with the exception of a handful of retroperitoneal tumors. Later on, I was introduced to the trans-psoas approach, guided by triggered EMG, and immediately realized that this approach was potentially powerful in treating a number of pathologies. However, the trans-psoas approach brought its own setbacks. Neel Anand, MD, Director of Spine Trauma, Cedars-Sinai Spine Center, Los Angeles: Historically, we always went through the middle of the psoas. The plexus and the nerves are there, so I started to enter more anteriorly a while ago for less psoas disruption. I transitioned to doing more of the oblique procedure around 2010 and realized it's a better way to go."

"title": "http://www.med-health.net/Low-Mpv.html\nWhat Does a Low MPV Mean?",
"text": "What Does a Low MPV Mean? MPV is the abbreviated form of Mean Platelet Volume. It is a reading which represents the size of the platelets in a blood sample and is determined by a machine. CBC or Complete Blood Profile is the test in which the calculation of this reading is usually included. The use of this reading is made in determining the rate of production of platelets in patients who are suffering from problems or diseases related to platelet destruction or bone morrow. It can provide the doctors with the knowledge of whether the body is generating more platelets than normal since the size of the platelet becomes enlarged in such circumstances. What Is the Normal Range of MPV? The volume of the platelets is calculated in femtoliter which is denoted by “f L”, and under normal circumstances ranges in between 7.5 f L to 11.5 f L. However, in most cases a reading in between 9.7 to 12.8 f L is considered safe which corresponds to spheres having diameters of 2.65 to 2.9 µm. What Does a Low MPV Mean? Having a Low MPV indicates that the platelet count in your blood is lower than normal and that you are in danger of suffering more blood loss in case you get injured."

Smaller sizes are mini MPV and compact MPV classifications. [ 2]The minivan combines a high-roof, five-door one- or two-box hatchback body configuration with a mid-size platform, engine and mechanicals; car-like handling and fuel economy; unibody construction; front-wheel or all-wheel drive and greater height than sedan or station wagon counterparts. The design offers higher h-point seating, two or three rows of seating, easy passenger and cargo access with sliding wide-opening rear doors and large rear hatch, and a re-configurable interior volume with seats that recline, slide, tumble, fold flat or allow easy removal—enabling users to reprioritize passenger and cargo volumes.

Amniotic fluid is the fluid that surrounds your baby in your uterus (womb). It’s very important for your baby’s development. How do you know if you have polyhydramnios? Many women with polyhydramnios don’t have symptoms. If you have a lot of extra amniotic fluid you may have belly pain and trouble breathing. This is because the uterus presses on your organs and lungs. Your health care provider uses ultrasound to measure the amount of amniotic fluid. There are two ways to measure the fluid: amniotic fluid index (AFI) and maximum vertical pocket (MPV). The AFI checks how deep the amniotic fluid is in four areas of your uterus."

Key Factsh MPV causes upper respiratory infections in people of all ages but is most common in children, particularly under the age of 5. Symptoms include runny nose, nasal congestion, cough, sore throat, headache, and fever. A very small number of individuals may have some shortness of breath. In most cases, the symptoms go away on their own after a few days. A very small number of people are at risk for a more severe pneumonia following this infection, especially those who are over the age of 75 or have compromised immune systems.

"text": "The CBC – providing information about your health The human body is primarily made up of water and cells. Many of the cells group together to form the skin, muscles, bones and organs, such as the heart, lungs, kidneys, etc. Such cells are stationary, staying in one place within the body. Some very special and important cells, however, move throughout the body by traveling (circulating) in the blood. These circulating cells provide oxygen to all of the stationary cells in the body, help fight infection throughout the body, and help stop bleeding after an injury. Information about these cells can provide important clues about the overall health of the body. The complete blood count, or CBC, is a lab test that provides information about these circulating cells. First, a sample of your blood is collected and sent to the lab. A lab instrument then automatically counts the number of each type of circulating cell. If results from the automated instrument are outside specified limits, a medical technologist will examine the cells closely so complete information about the cells can be provided."

When you have installed all your favorite software, it is time to have a look at MSConfig, whether performance enhancements are possible. The most important tab, is the last one: Startup. Here you can disable (and enable again....) startup items. If you are not sure, you better leave the item untouched, but you are free to experiment (you can always turn them on again).

Here are our top 10 tweaks that’ll make your computer boot a little faster. This is a pretty controversial topic, as there are a lot of startup-tweaking myths out there. So, we took to the streets (of the internet) and searched for as many easy, well-supported tips as we could find. There may be others, some of which are controversial, but these 10 things are almost sure to get you a faster-booting machine.10. Tweak Your BIOSWhen you first set up your computer, your BIOS is set up to make things a bit more convenient for you, but once you’re all set up, those things can be disabled. If you hold the DEL key when you start up your computer (or whatever key your BIOS tells you to enter setup), you can turn on the “Quick Boot” option and move your hard disk to the top of the boot priority list. The Quick Boot setting will turn off the tests your computer runs when it first turns on, and the boot priority tweak will tell your computer not to look for CDs, thumb drives, or other media when it first starts, which will get you booted into your OS quicker. You can always boot up from a CD later, if you need to.9."

When uninstalling Crossrider Apps from your Add/Remove panel in windows, it should be removed completely from your computer. It's important to understand that Crossrider is *not* an app or a program but its a *framework* (or a tool) *for developers* to easily create those programs, which are extensions (or add-ons) for Internet Browsers such as Internet Explorer, Chrome or Firefox. If you have encountered an application that was created using Crossrider, you have probably downloaded it from one of the developers who are working with our tool. Crossrider does not add itself to your windows start menu so it looks like someone else is trying to re-add his Crossrider App to the startup process."

MSCONFIG is designed to help you troubleshoot problems with your computer such it being slow or frequently crashing. As many computer users know, running a lot of programs at once will slow down your computer. What a lot of users don’t know however is that Windows launches a lot of programs in the background that you never see, preventing some of these from loading at startup can greatly increase your computer performance. Getting started with MSCONFIG: To start MSCONFIG goto: Start > Run and type “MSCONFIG” without the quotes. If you are running on Windows 95, Windows NT or Windows 2000 then you probably don’t have MSCONFIG available. You can download a copy that was taken from Windows XP here: http://www.technibble.com/downloads/windows-tools/msconfig.zip Once you open MSCONFIG you will see 6 tabs which provide access to various parts and processes that Windows XP uses. On the far right there is a tab called “Startup†which is of most interest to us right now as it controls which processes start automatically when you load Windows. This list will probably be quite long and most of the items in it you won’t recognize at first.

I think you get my point. If you have tons of programs loading up that you don’t use immediately on startup, then they are basically doing nothing but slowing your computer down and should be disabled. If you occasionally use the program, that’s not a problem because when you do decide to use it, clicking on it will load it up. However, all the major software writers like to load their software into memory immediately so that in case you use their program, it can load up quickly. This is fine for programs that you use often, but how many times a day do you open Quick Time or Adobe reader? I would rather be able to have a working computer sooner than have a program I use once a week load a second or two faster. Disabling startup programs can greatly increase the speed of your computer and usually will not adversely affect your computer because the programs can be loaded manually when you click on them.

When you enable it, it still DOES NOT remove the above registry key, however the evntsvc.exe process is terminated when Real One is exited, and from that point on is started and closed in tandem with Real One. Note that the 'Run' registry key is still there, so I assume it doesn't *allow* itself to start when Real One isn't running. Regardless of the above setting, the Tk Bell Exe registry key is still recreated/updated every time Real One is running.

"title": "http://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/gene/NOD2\nNOD2 gene",
"text": "Normal Function The NOD2 gene (previously known as CARD15) provides instructions for making a protein that plays an important role in immune system function. The NOD2 protein is active in some types of immune system cells (including monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells), which help protect the body against foreign invaders such as bacteria and viruses. The protein is also active in several types of epithelial cells, including Paneth cells, which are found in the lining of the intestine. These cells help defend the intestinal wall against bacterial infection. The NOD2 protein has several critical functions in defending the body against foreign invaders. The protein is involved in recognizing certain bacteria and stimulating the immune system to respond appropriately. When triggered by specific substances produced by bacteria, the NOD2 protein turns on (activates) a protein complex called nuclear factor-kappa-B. This protein complex regulates the activity of multiple genes, including genes that control immune responses and inflammatory reactions. An inflammatory reaction occurs when the immune system sends signaling molecules and white blood cells to a site of injury or disease to fight microbial invaders and facilitate tissue repair. The NOD2 protein also appears to play a role in a process called autophagy, which cells use to surround and destroy bacteria, viruses, and other harmful substances. In addition to protecting cells from infection, autophagy is used to recycle worn-out cell parts and break down certain proteins when they are no longer needed."

"text": "Article Authors Metrics Comments Related Content Abstract Introduction Results Discussion Methods Supporting Information Author Contributions References Reader Comments (0)Media Coverage (0)Figures Abstract The recent large genotyping studies have identified a new repertoire of disease susceptibility loci of unknown function, characterized by high allele frequencies and low relative risks, lending support to the common disease-common variant (CDCV) hypothesis. The variants explain a much larger proportion of the disease etiology, measured by the population attributable fraction, than of the familial risk. We show here that if the identified polymorphisms were markers of rarer functional alleles they would explain a much larger proportion of the familial risk. For example, in a plausible scenario where the marker is 10 times more common than the causative allele, the excess familial risk of the causative allele is over 10 times higher than that of the marker allele. However, the population attributable fractions of the two alleles are equal. The penetrance mode of the causative locus may be very difficult to deduce from the apparent penetrance mode of the marker locus.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search The cardinal signs of inflammation include: pain, heat, redness, swelling, and loss of function. Some of these indicators can be seen here due to an allergic reaction. Inflammation (from Latin: inflammatio) is part of the complex biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants, [1] and is a protective response involving immune cells, blood vessels, and molecular mediators. The function of inflammation is to eliminate the initial cause of cell injury, clear out necrotic cells and tissues damaged from the original insult and the inflammatory process, and initiate tissue repair. The five classical signs of inflammation are heat, pain, redness, swelling, (Latin calor, dolor, rubor, tumor) and loss of function. [ 1] Inflammation is a generic response, and therefore it is considered as a mechanism of innate immunity, as compared to adaptive immunity, which is specific for each pathogen. [ 2] Too little inflammation could lead to progressive tissue destruction by the harmful stimulus (e.g. bacteria) and compromise the survival of the organism. In contrast, chronic inflammation may lead to a host of diseases, such as hay fever, periodontitis, atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and even cancer (e.g., gallbladder carcinoma ). Inflammation is therefore normally closely regulated by the body. Inflammation can be classified as either acute or chronic."

This genetic contribution to disease ranges from simple Mendelian inheritance of causative alleles to the complex interactions of multiple weak loci influencing risk. The genetic variants responsible for disease are being discovered through a range of strategies from linkage studies to genome-wide association studies. Despite the rapid advances in genetic analysis, substantial components of the heritable risk remain unexplained, either owing to the contribution of an as-yet unidentified, “hidden,” component of risk, or through the underappreciated effects of known risk loci. Surprisingly, despite the variation in genetic control, a great deal of conservation appears in the biological processes influenced by risk alleles, with several key immunological pathways being modified in autoimmune diseases covering a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations. The primary translational potential of this knowledge is in the rational design of new therapeutics to exploit the role of these key pathways in influencing disease. With significant further advances in understanding the genetic risk factors and their biological mechanisms, the possibility of genetically tailored (or “personalized”) therapy may be realized. Autoimmune diseases affect a significant proportion of the population, with >4% of the European population suffering from one or more of these disorders ( Vyse and Todd 1996; Cooper et al. 2009; Eaton et al. 2010 )."

"text": "Gastroenterology Volume 125, Issue 1, July 2003, Pages 47-57Clinical-alimentary tract Crohn’s disease and the NOD2 gene: a role for paneth cells ☆Sanjay Lala ∗ Yasunori Ogura ‡ Caroline Osborne § Sok Ying Hor ∗ Annabel Bromfield ∗ Susan Davies ∥ Olagunju Ogunbiyi § Gabriel Nuñez ‡ Satish Keshav ∗Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/S0016-5085 (03)00661-9 Get rights and content Abstract Background & Aims: The NOD2 gene, which is strongly associated with susceptibility to Crohn’s disease (CD) of the terminal ileum, interacts with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), inducing cellular activation. However, the mechanisms by which NOD2 mutations cause terminal ileitis are unknown, and NOD2 is expressed most highly by peripheral blood monocytes, which are distributed ubiquitously and readily respond to LPS via cell-surface receptors. Paneth cells on the other hand, are most numerous in the terminal ileum, are critically important in enteric antibacterial defense, and respond to LPS through as yet undefined pathways. We therefore determined if these specialized intestinal epithelial cells also expressed the NOD2 gene. Methods: In situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry, and laser-capture microdissection were used to determine RNA and protein expression in tissue sections, and real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to quantitate gene expression in intestinal epithelial cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Results: NOD2 was detected readily in monocytes, but not in mature macrophages in the lamina propria or within granulomas, and levels declined as monocytes differentiated into macrophages in vitro, so that Caco-2 cells expressed more NOD2 m RNA than macrophages. NOD2 m RNA was enriched in crypts compared with villi, and in situ, Paneth cells were the most prominent cells expressing NOD2 in normal and CD-affected intestinal tissue, where they also strongly expressed tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) RNA. Conclusions: The NOD2 gene product is most abundant in Paneth cells in the terminal ileum, which could therefore play a critical and hitherto unrecognized role in the pathogenesis of NOD2-associated CD.

Adams c, in Encyclopedia of Genetics, 2001Developmental Regulation Conidiophoredevelopment has been studied extensively because it is easy to control in the laboratory and is amenable to investigation by using molecular and genetic approaches. Figure 4 shows developing conidiophores, which consist of a basal foot cell, a stalk (S) terminating in a swollen vesicle (V), two layers of cells called metulae (M) and phialides (P), and long chains of conidia (C). Hundreds of genes are selectively activated during development. Many of these encode structural proteins or enzymes that are responsible for the differentiated functions of the various cell types making up the conidiophore. Three major regulatory genes encoding transcription factors that control development are brl A, aba A, and wet A ( Figure 5 ). Expression of brl A initiates a self-sustaining cascade of events in which regulatory ( aba A and wet A) and structural genes are sequentially activated at appropriate times in proper cell types. Initiation of conidiophore development is coordinated through the output of distinct signal transduction pathways involving fluffy ( flu) genes that are required to sense environmental and cellular factors to inhibit or promote conidiation and growth. Under conditions that favor conidiation, these signal pathway outputs serve to activate brl A, thereby controlling the onset of development ( Adams et al ., 1998 ).

"text": "Association of NOD2/CARD15 With Crohn Disease In early 2001, two groups independently published back-to-back articles in Nature identifying the gene NOD2 (also called CARD15) as the first susceptibility gene for Crohn disease (CD). [ 1, 2] Three mutations within the leucine-rich repeat region were associated with CD (see the image below), and these and other studies have demonstrated an approximately 2-fold risk for CD in NOD2 heterozygotes and an approximately 20-fold risk for CD in NOD2 homozygotes or complex heterozygotes. [ 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]NOD2/CARD15 variants Additional evidence of the contribution of NOD2 in CD was demonstrated by a study in which the NOD2 gene was sequenced and additional, rare polymorphisms that increase the risk of the development of CD were identified. [ 9]NOD2 was identified as an intracellular protein in the proinflammatory nuclear factor kappa B (NFk B) pathway, and the leucine-rich repeat was identified as a receptor for bacterial products (now known to be muramyl dipeptide). In one of these studies, cells transfected with one of the “mutant” forms of NOD2 demonstrated decreased NFk B activity in response to stimulation by a number of common bacteria. [ 2]The identification of this genetic association was highly significant for researchers, as it not only proved that genes for genetically complex diseases such as CD could actually be identified (the NOD2 /CD finding was, arguably, the first major success in genetically complex diseases), but it also supported the long-held hypothesis that CD was a heritable condition in which affected individuals had an abnormal response to “friendly” bacteria. How the 3 associated NOD2 variants increase susceptibility to CD remains the subject of considerable debate. One of the index association studies suggests that the mutations have a “loss of function” effect, meaning that after bacterial stimulation, there was reduced NFk B expression. Yet this finding was counterintuitive, as CD is a disease characterized in part by elevated NFk B levels. One possible explanation was that this “defect” in the innate immune system allows intracellular bacteria to escape the first-line defense of the immune system, thereby leading to an enhanced adaptive response."

Epidemiology Although Lyme disease is common in North America and Europe, affecting as many as 1 in 1000 people in certain American states and 1 in 300 people in parts of Southern Europe annually, its cardiac manifestations that predominantly include conduction disturbances affect only a small minority of patients. 1,2 Such conduction disturbances were first described in 1977, and in 1980 the term, Lyme carditis, was coined to describe the variety of cardiac abnormalities found in patients with Lyme disease. 3,4 Reported rates of cardiac involvement in incident Lyme disease have declined since the initial descriptions of Borrelia burgdorferi infection. In the mid-1980s, 10% of Lyme disease cases reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) included cardiac symptoms, but most of these cases consisted of palpitations alone. 5 Although standardized surveillance and reporting for Lyme disease cases began in 1991, reporting of clinical manifestations, including only second- or third-degree AV block among the cardiac manifestations, has since been optional. 6,7 Using this more narrow definition, 1.1% of Lyme disease cases reported to the CDC between 2001 and 2010 included cardiac manifestations. 8 The reported frequency of cardiac involvement in Europe has ranged from 1% to 2%. 9,10Although numbers of all Lyme disease cases are split almost evenly between the genders, Lyme carditis is more common among men, who constitute 65% of patients with cardiac manifestations reported to the CDC between 2001 and 2010. 8,11 A systematic review of Lyme-related third-degree heart block cases found that 84% of reported cases were male."

We describe here a model in which persistently infected 129X1/Sv J mice provide a natural model of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium transmission. In this model only a subset of the infected mice, termed supershedders, shed high levels (>10 8 CFU/g) of Salmonella serovar Typhimurium in their feces and, as a result, rapidly transmit infection. While most Salmonella serovar Typhimurium-infected mice show signs of intestinal inflammation, only supershedder mice develop colitis. Development of the supershedder phenotype depends on the virulence determinants Salmonella pathogenicity islands 1 and 2, and it is characterized by mucosal invasion and, importantly, high luminal abundance of Salmonella serovar Typhimurium within the colon. Immunosuppression of infected mice does not induce the supershedder phenotype, demonstrating that the immune response is not the main determinant of Salmonella serovar Typhimurium levels within the colon. In contrast, treatment of mice with antibiotics that alter the health-associated indigenous intestinal microbiota rapidly induces the supershedder phenotype in infected mice and predisposes uninfected mice to the supershedder phenotype for several days. These results demonstrate that the intestinal microbiota plays a critical role in controlling Salmonella serovar Typhimurium infection, disease, and transmissibility. This novel model should facilitate the study of host, pathogen, and intestinal microbiota factors that contribute to infectious disease transmission."

Correspondence: [email protected]↵ 1 These authors contributed equally to this work. Next Section Abstract Caspases are a family of endoproteases that provide critical links in cell regulatory networks controlling inflammation and cell death. The activation of these enzymes is tightly controlled by their production as inactive zymogens that gain catalytic activity following signaling events promoting their aggregation into dimers or macromolecular complexes. Activation of apoptotic caspases results in inactivation or activation of substrates, and the generation of a cascade of signaling events permitting the controlled demolition of cellular components. Activation of inflammatory caspases results in the production of active proinflammatory cytokines and the promotion of innate immune responses to various internal and external insults. Dysregulation of caspases underlies human diseases including cancer and inflammatory disorders, and major efforts to design better therapies for these diseases seek to understand how these enzymes work and how they can be controlled. Caspases are a family of genes important for maintaining homeostasis through regulating cell death and inflammation. Here we will attempt to summarize what we currently know about how caspases normally work, and what happens when members of this diverse gene family fail to work correctly. Caspases are endoproteases that hydrolyze peptide bonds in a reaction that depends on catalytic cysteine residues in the caspase active site and occurs only after certain aspartic acid residues in the substrate."

Poor digestion symptoms like these indicate an imbalance in your intestinal microflora that may lead to more serious disease. And it's why you need to understand the benefits of probiotics. Do you recognize any of these symptoms of poor digestion?

These friendly bacteria, referred to as “probiotics” are becoming more and more mainstream among clinicians for both preventative and therapeutic reasons. The literal translation of the word probiotic is “for life”. Probiotics work to offset bad intestinal bacteria that produce putrefactive and carcinogenic toxins. If harmful bacteria dominate the intestines, digestion suffers, candida yeast grows out of control, and essential vitamins and enzymes are not produced."

[ 2]Signs and symptoms often include abdominal pain, diarrhea (which may be bloody if inflammation is severe), fever, and weight loss. [ 1] [2] Other complications may occur outside the gastrointestinal tract and include anemia, skin rashes, arthritis, inflammation of the eye, and tiredness. [ 1] The skin rashes may be due to infections as well as pyoderma gangrenosum or erythema nodosum. [ 1] Bowel obstruction also commonly occurs and those with the disease are at greater risk of bowel cancer. [ 1]While the cause of Crohn's disease is unknown, it is believed to be due to a combination of environmental, immune, and bacterial factors in genetically susceptible individuals. [ 6] [7] [8] It results in a chronic inflammatory disorder, in which the body's immune system attacks the gastrointestinal tract possibly directed at microbial antigens.

In children and adolescents, chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis predominantly affects the metaphyses of the long bones, but lesions can occur at any site in the skeleton. Other organs (the skin, eyes, gastrointestinal tract and lungs) can also be affected. Clinical diagnosis is often difficult because the symptoms and course of disease vary significantly. We present a 10-year-old girl diagnosed with CRMO involving several vertebrae, the femur and the metatarsus. Investigations Physical examination, abdominal ultra sonography, conventional X-ray, MRI, technetium bone scan, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, colonoscopy, tests for HLA-B27 and thiopurine methyltransferase, polymerase chain reaction and thoracic vertebral bone biopsies. Diagnosis CRMO and Crohn's disease. Management The patient's condition improved whilst being treated with NSAIDs for 3 months; however, the patient had an allergic skin reaction to this therapy.

Most of the patients were newly diagnosed and none of them received antibiotics. Using a reverse transcription–quantitative real-time PCR (RT-q PCR) method, we determined the composition of microbiota. NOD2/CARD15 genotyping was also studied. Results Total bacterial DNA concentration was increased in tissue and blood samples of IBD patients compared to healthy controls. Furthermore, the active IBD cases had higher total bacterial DNA concentration levels compared to the inactive cases. Three species characterized dysbiosis in IBD, namely an increase of Bacteroides spp in active and inactive IBD samples, and a decrease in Clostridium leptum group (IV), and Faecalibacterium prausnitzi in both active and inactive IBD patients."

"text": "Gastrointestinal Nervous System Peripheral Neuropathy Conditions Caused by Chron’s Disease0By Pain Resource - Friday, July 6, 2012Share on Facebook Tweet on Twitter Patients with Crohn’s Disease is a seldom-understood autoimmune disorder. Crohn’s Disease, also called Crohn’s colitis, ileitis, or regional enteritis, is a form of chronic inflammatory bowel disease ( IBD ). It is mostly characterized by ulcerations in the gastrointestinal ( G. I.) tract, located anywhere from the throat through the colon (most commonly in the small intestines through the rectum). While Crohn’s Disease is not directly categorized as a neuropathic condition, within 10 years of onset it is common for patients to develop peripheral neuropathy, or other autoimmune/inflammatory-disorder-related damage to joints, bone or tissue. This means nerve damage can become apparent, causing tingling and numbness, difficulty walking, speaking, or swallowing, and sometimes causing severe disabilities or psychological disorders. Crohn’s induced Migratory Arthritis Though Crohn’s Disease is medically classified as affecting the G. I. tract, patients suffering from it often experience a host of other problems that are caused by the body’s inflammatory responses over time. It could be a symptom of Crohn’s, or a related to what causes the disease. An illustration of the G. I. tract. Many Crohn’s patients (usually those experiencing symptoms outside of, or in addition to, the small intestine) develop Migratory Arthritis, which causes the patient’s joints (hips, knees, ankles, wrists, elbows) to become inflamed and painful, seemingly at random, and with no other known stressors. This symptomatic form of arthritis is caused by swelling generated by the body’s T-cells (a form of white blood cell) attacking tissue surrounding the nerves of the joints (in addition to the G. I. tract)."

"text": "\"Flag What does the medical abbreviation NOS mean? Answered by The Wiki Answers ®Community Answers.com ® is making the world better one answer at a time. Most commonly, NOS means \"\"not otherwise specified\"\". In other words if you've been diagnosed as having anxiety order nos...it means that you don't have a specific anxiety disorder, just a more general one. Another example: If your knee hurts and you go to the ER, but they can't find the cause. They usually give you a low dose pain med and tell you to follow up with your family doctor for further testing. The discharge code will be something like Arthralgia NOS (joint pain not otherwise specified.) NOS could also be Nitric Oxide Synthesis or Non Organ Specific. NOS is \"\"not otherwise specified.\"\" It's not really a medical term; instead, it has to do with choosing a diagnosis from the standard list of codes."

This might seem frightening, but it has a very simple explanation. Here’s what “NOS” means in the medical context, and what that might mean for you. Besides as a medical abbreviation, NOS has other meanings such as new old stock in retail and auction industry. What does NOS Mean as a Medical Abbreviation?“NOS” simply means “Not Otherwise Specified.” It’s an abbreviation that helps doctors choose from a standard list of codes that tell the diagnosis of your medical condition. In most cases, a standard list has very specific codes that cover just about everything. But your condition might be something that isn’t specified in that list, and so your doctor chooses “NOS” instead. For instance, you might have an anxiety disorder."

How This Term Was Used in the Fourth Edition of the DSMBy Nancy Schimelpfening | Reviewed by Steven Gans, MDUpdated October 23, 2017Share Pin Email Print Credit: PEDRE/Getty Images In the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV), which was written and issued by the American Psychiatric Association (APA), \"\"NOS\"\" is an abbreviation for \"\"not otherwise specified.\"\" It serves as a sort of catch-all term to label symptoms that don't neatly fall into a well-defined diagnosis, but that clearly indicate that someone is dealing with an illness that's part of a specific family of diagnoses. An example of this is \"\"Depressive Disorder NOS.\"\" A doctor using the DSM-IV to diagnose a patient may have chosen to label that person's diagnosis in this way because although it was clear her symptoms showed she was dealing with a particular type of depression (rather than, say, a panic disorder or an anxiety disorder ), there wasn't enough information to home in a specific type of depression, such as dysthymia or bipolar disorder. Why \"\"NOS\"\" Is No Longer Used In May 2013, the APA published an updated version of the DSM-IV. In the DSM-5 (note that the use of Roman numerals was dropped from the title of the manual), the authors decided to eliminate \"\"not otherwise specified\"\" and replace it (and \"\"NOS\"\") with \"\"other specified\"\" and \"\"unspecified\"\" to indicate clusters of symptoms that do not neatly fit into another existing category. Why two terms to replace one? The difference is based on whether a diagnosing doctor chooses to indicate why the diagnostic criteria were not met. An example of \"\"other specified\"\" might be a depressive episode that does not have the full number of symptoms to meet the formal diagnosis."

"text": "\"IACC Home > Publications > Statement Regarding Changes in Diagnostic Criteria IACC Statement Regarding Scientific, Practice and Policy Implications of Changes in the Diagnostic Criteria for Autism Spectrum Disorder April 2, 2014The Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (IACC) is a Federal advisory committee, composed of Federal and public members, that coordinates all efforts within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) concerning autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The committee recognizes the need for diagnostic criteria for ASD that reflect current scientific knowledge and progress and define the wide range of symptom expression associated with this disorder. It was the goal of the Neurodevelopmental (ND) Workgroup for the Fifth Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) to meet these standards. The DSM-5 criteria were published in May 2013. 1, 2 Although the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria are intended primarily for use by clinicians and researchers in their diagnostic assessments, the IACC is aware that it is important to also remember that these the criteria also have a direct impact on people who have the disorders and their families, and their ability to assess symptoms and obtain services that can help them optimize their health, well-being and quality of life. Any revision of the diagnostic criteria must be made with great care so as to not have the unintended consequence of reducing critical services aimed at improving the ability of persons with autism. In this statement, the IACC describes a range of research, practice, and policy implications that arise as a result of the changes in the DSM criteria which deserve consideration as the DSM-5 is implemented in research, clinical, and educational settings. Changes in the DSM Criteria Starting with the DSM-III in 1980, autism was categorized as a Pervasive Developmental Disorders (PDD). In an effort to reflect what has been learned through research and practice since that time, the DSM-5 released in 2013 removed the PDD category and the accompanying subtypes (Autistic Disorder, Asperger Disorder, Childhood Disintegrative Disorder and Pervasive Developmental Disorder – Not Otherwise Specified) with a single disorder, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The DSM-5 criteria place greater emphasis on the two core symptom domains of ASD (social communication and restrictive, repetitive behaviors), and no longer consider verbal abilities as a diagnostic feature."

"text": "\"Top definition NOSNoun. 1) An acronym for the brand name 'Nitrous Oxide Systems'. NOS produces a chemical known as nitrous oxide, often used in the performance optimization of car and motorcycle engines. The chemical (N2O) breaks up upon contact with air, releasing extra oxygen into the engine. This often means that oxygen detectors in modern cars pick up the extra oxygen and add more fuel to the a/f mixture. This means the engine will pack a harder punch than it typically would, in the form of an instant flywheel horsepower gain. 2) A buzzword used by the illegal street racing comunity (often populated by rice burners), to make one's car sound fast. Many misconceptions have arisen from the term NOS, particularily founded by the film i The Fast And The Furious/i. One misconception is that NOS can be installed on any car, and with the push of a button it will result in an exponential gain in speed. Another is that NOS iis/i nitrous oxide; NOS is only a brand name."

In a very general way, \"\" high functioning autism \"\" may mean any of the following:\"\"a person with relatively mild symptoms which, despite their mildness, are significant enough to merit an autism spectrum diagnosis\"\" or...\"\"a person with autism whose IQ is higher than 70\"\" or...\"\"a person with autism who is successfully navigating a typical school or work environment\"\" or...\"\"a person who is able to mask symptoms of autism successfully so they they have in expected ways and can pass for neurotypical\"\" or...\"\"a person who, at one point, had an Asperger Syndrome diagnosis. \"\" As you can see, one person's HFA is... just one person's HFA. Add to this the fact that many people with autism may be bright, accomplished, and yet have severe symptoms (such as anxiety and sensory dysfunction) that significantly impact their daily functioning. The bottom line: HFA really is hard to define. Why High Functioning Autism Isn't the Same as Asperger Syndrome Until 2013, many people who might be said to have high functioning autism were diagnosed with either Asperger syndrome or PDD-NOS (Pervasive Developmental Disorder Not Otherwise Specified) . Asperger syndrome was a distinct diagnosis which described a person of average or higher-than-average intelligence and age-appropriate language skills who also had significant social and communication challenges. PDD-NOS was a catch-all diagnosis. Often understood to mean the same thing as \"\"high functioning autistic,\"\" it really incorporated individuals at all functional levels whose symptoms didn't fully correlate with classic autism."

Then hit up a couple good vendor booths for freebies, a spa before dinner, and party ‘til dawn. Sorry, wrong convention. While you can probably fulfill the above fantasy at either the American Academy of Professional Coders or the AHIMA conventions, what we will review here involves a different definition of the word. Although software is available for the chores of daily coding life, the fact remains that if you can’t operate the code book itself, you could find yourself up the proverbial creek without a paddle. Whether a major event such as a system crash requires you to code—gasp!—manually, or you simply decide to get (or add) coding credentials, sooner or later you’re going to have to get back to basics. If you move from a career of daily coding to one comprised mostly of auditing, you’ll need to defend your code changes with something more credible than “the software said this is right.” And if you’re the defendant rather than the auditor, the same still holds true."

In this paper you will find topics and research from the past that support the principle of a clinical vocabulary as essential. The presentation at the conference will include the latest information regarding the available vocabularies. This presentation will encompass a very brief overview of the history of nomenclatures and classification systems, as well as the difference between nomenclatures, classification systems, and vocabularies. It will focus on the projected uses of vocabularies in electronic health records (EHRs) and an orientation to concepts and data formalization. If you feel the need to know more about the history of classification systems, you can reference Huffman, 10th Edition, Chapter 9. Brief History of Classification Systems London Bills of Mortality and Florence Nightingale It can sometimes be difficult to believe that the quest for classifying morbidity and mortality is quite old. It was 1532 when the London parishes began keeping death records. ( Encyclopaedia Britannica [EB] Online ) In 1662, John Graunt, a merchant, wrote Natural and Political Observations... Made Upon the Bills of Mortality (1662). ( EB Online ) His friend, Sir William Petty, was able to extrapolate from mortality rates an estimate of community economic loss caused by deaths. ("

"text": "Fertilizer Numbers – What Is NPKSoil, Fixes & Fertilizers By: Heather Rhoades Printer Friendly Version Image by Don Nunn By Nikki Tilley (Author of The Bulb-o-licious Garden)Standing in the fertilizer aisle of a garden or farm store, you are faced with a dizzying array of fertilizer options, many with a series of three numbers like 10-10-10, 20-20-20, 10-8-10 or many other combinations of numbers. You may be asking yourself, “What do the numbers on fertilizer mean?” These are NPK values, which leads to the next question of, “What is NPK?” Keep reading to learn more about fertilizer numbers and NPK. What Do the Numbers on Fertilizer Mean? The three numbers on fertilizer represents the value of the three macro-nutrients used by plants. These macro-nutrients are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) or NPK for short. The higher the number, the more concentrated the nutrient is in the fertilizer. For example, numbers on fertilizer listed as 20-5-5 has four times more nitrogen in it than phosphorus and potassium. A 20-20-20 fertilizer has twice as much concentration of all three nutrients than 10-10-10."

"text": "Ideal Growing Conditions for Onions Soils: The essential requirements for a good soil for growing onions are plenty of organic material, sufficient drainage, and regular weeding. If a soil has the proper combination of sand and hummus and you can easily work it, it should hold moisture and nutrients well and should drain properly. Adding compost to your soil is a great idea and will always improve soil texture and drainage. Sandy soils need to be worked with compost before growing onions for the first time. Break up the soil in the fall and work in the compost. If time permits, allow the soil to sit and plow again in the spring before planting your onion crop. Otherwise, you can break up the soil and add the compost just before planting in the spring. Just make sure the compost is fully decomposed. If you’re not sure how to compost correctly, please see this excellent compost guide from the University of Missouri Extension Center. It is generally appropriate to grow onions where you have grown other crops before."

"text": "\"The Debate over Organic vs. Chemical Fertilizers By: Julie Day Ask most any gardener whether they prefer organic or chemical fertilizer, and chances are you’ll spark a lively debate. However, if you could ask your plants the same question, you’d find out that at the most basic level, they really can’t tell the difference – nutrients are nutrients. Yet there ARE significant differences between organic and chemical fertilizers in terms of nutrient availability and the long-term effects on soil, plants, and the environment. So how does a conscientious gardener decide? Terminology To begin with, the terminology can be confusing, since labels and gardeners freely throw around words like organic, natural, inorganic, chemical, synthetic, artificial, and manufactured. The good news is that the choice can be reduced to either organic or chemical fertilizers. Organic Fertilizer The words “organic” or “natural” in this case simply means that the product is only minimally processed, and the nutrients remain bound up in their natural forms, rather than being extracted and refined. In the case of fertilizer, “organic” does NOT refer to the standards of processing associated with food. Organic fertilizer is usually made from plant or animal waste or powdered minerals. Examples include manure and compost, as well as bone and cottonseed meal."

"text": "Marijuana Fertilizers As well as some trace minerals all plants need three basic macro elements to grow: nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium (N-P-K) and numerous trace elements. Fertilizers contain these macro elements in various quantities and will label them in this order, thus a label that states 10-5-5 will contain 10% nitrogen, 5% phosphorous and 5% potassium. Each of the elements have different properties to offer the plant. Roughly speaking, nitrogen encourages vegetative growth, phosphorous promotes the growth of roots and flowers, and potassium helps with root development and photosynthesis. Consequently a fertilizer high in nitrogen is suitable for vegetative growth and one higher in phosphorous is suitable for flowering.

What value do they have in organic gardening? A plant needs nutrients to survive. Most of these are provided by the soil, but soil varies tremendously in nutrient amounts, soil type, p H, and nutrient availability. The three main nutrients that have been identified as absolutely necessary for plants are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K). These three are also known as macronutrients, and are the source of the three numbers commonly found on organic fertilizer labels. The numbers found on our All-Purpose Fertilizer, for example, are 5-5-5. This is the percentage by weight of the N, P, and K found in the fertilizer. So what’s so important about nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium? Nitrogen (N) is probably the most widely recognized nutrient, known primarily for its ability to “green up” lawns."

One of the plants in the nutrient-poor soil has died. Fertilizers enhance the growth of plants. This goal is met in two ways, the traditional one being additives that provide nutrients. The second mode by which some fertilizers act is to enhance the effectiveness of the soil by modifying its water retention and aeration. This article, like many on fertilizers, emphasises the nutritional aspect. Fertilizers typically provide, in varying proportions: [1]three main macronutrients: Nitrogen (N): leaf growth Phosphorus (P): Development of roots, flowers, seeds, fruit;Potassium (K): Strong stem growth, movement of water in plants, promotion of flowering and fruiting;three secondary macronutrients: calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and sulfur (S);micronutrients: copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), zinc (Zn), boron (B). Of occasional significance are silicon (Si), cobalt (Co), and vanadium (V). The nutrients required for healthy plant life are classified according to the elements, but the elements are not used as fertilizers."

In each phase of your cannabis plant’s growth, you need to make sure that you are using the correct fertilizers and nutrients enable for you to get an amazing grow. Germinating Phase It is not advisable to use fertilizer in the soil while you are germinating marijuana seeds. Fertilizers might ruin your marijuana sprout since those sprouts are fragile. Good tomato soils are good enough to grow your marijuana sprouts until it’s ready to get supplemental nutrients and fertilizers. The tomato soils contain proper nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium ( NPK) ratios which can provide your seedling’s needs for at least 14 days. While the marijuana plant continues to grow, it is recommended to administer proper fertilizers and nutrients as necessary. Nutrients and Fertilizer For Growing Marijuana Marijuana Nutrients, Fertilizers And Pesticides Vegetative Phase Use NPK fertilizers during this phase because that’s what your marijuana plant needs enable for it to maintain a vigorous growth and maturity.

What do the fertilizer numbers mean? Are organic lawn fertilizers safer and more eco-friendly than chemical fertilizer? Is there a pet safe lawn fertilizer? The ideal way to choose the best fertilizer is to start by understanding your lawn's nutrient needs and then pick a product that can supply those needs. Nutrients for Grass Care Nitrogen is the mineral element that affects turfgrass growth and development the most. It is required in the largest amounts and fertilizer recommendations are usually based on pounds of nitrogen per 1000 ft 2. If you are using a complete lawn fertilizer, it should have a nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium (N-P 2 O 5 -K 2 O) ratio around 4-1-2 (For example 16-4-8). Use a complete NPK fertilizer when planting a new lawn. Established lawns rarely need phosphorus fertilizers and should only be used when recommended by a soil test."

These changes have run in parallel with lifestyle changes, disease pattern changes and food processing changes. Set out below are some of the causes and effects involved in these changes. The issue The reduction in nutritional status over a 70 year period is contributing to, and is likely be the major cause of the recent and rapid rise in degenerative diseases. The implications of this are that people are living in an accelerated state of degeneration. This means that they are not able to experience true well being and vitality and all the benefits this will give. In addition, there is an increasing incidence of chronic disease patterns earlier in life for all people born since the 60’s /70’s which is likely to accelerate. If we accept this overview, then we must look at the central role of nutritional status in health creation and disease prevention. The Changes in detail Farming changes* Monoculture breaks down nature’s support for crops - we have chosen to work against natures natural ways, which is tohave a variety of plants and therefore associated wildlife which complements and supports much of the total growing processes. * NPK farming to stimulate growth - NPK minerals accelerate the uptake of micronutrients etc from the soil and these are not being replaced."

"text": "What Do Marijuana Plants Eat?by The Weed Blog Oct 13, 2013Picking the right fertilizer can make the difference between a plant that is merely “surviving” and a plant that is truly “thriving”. BY ROBERT BERGMANBefore you start growing marijuana, you want to know what your plant will need throughout its life cycle and how to buy (or create) your own plant food supplies. Fertilizer, generally, is any element that can be introduced to soil, water, or to a plant itself that will spur healthy growth beyond what it would be without aid from the fertilizing element. Just as a human athlete needs a proper diet to achieve maximum performance levels, so does a cultivated plant require the equivalent of a healthy diet to attain maximum growth. There are many types and forms of fertilizer, but the one that works best is the one that most effectively provides the health-enhancing nutrients that a plant needs most at that time. For now, for our purposes, forget sophisticated and often expensive soil and water testers; you can do very well using only a few proven basics and simple off-the-shelf growing products. What Cannabis Plants Eat The three main elements marijuana plants need are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). All three of these are needed for strong root growth, vigorous leafing, and for lush flowers with high yields. Commercial potting soils are pre-blended with a balanced NPK ratio that will sustain a plant for the first two or three weeks. As plants grow taller and broader, supplemental nutrients are required."

"text": "\"Landscaping Basics What Do the Letters NPK Mean in a Fertilizer? By David Beaulieu Updated 03/21/18Share Pin Email David Beaulieu NPK stands for \"\"nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium,\"\" the three nutrients that compose complete fertilizers. You will encounter the letters, NPK when reading the contents printed on bags of fertilizer. The description of the fertilizer may not expressly say \"\"NPK\"\", but you will at least see a series of three numbers, which correspond, respectively, to the nitrogen content, phosphorus content, and potassium content of that fertilizer. Also implied is a percentage symbol after each number because each of the three numbers represents the percentage of that nutrient in the makeup of the fertilizer. Why is it important to know what NPK means? Not all types of plants have the same nutrient requirements, and you can sometimes do more harm than good when applying chemicals haphazardly. Applying a fertilizer high in nitrogen will cause certain plants to put all their energy into producing foliage at the expense of flowers. If you do not have a good grasp on how well your soil is meeting the nutritional needs of a plant but still feel the need to feed it at a particular time, your best bet is probably to: Use compost instead of a chemical fertilizer. Have your soil tested."

In most cases, important gardening practices such as aerating and composting are much better for your garden than using chemical fertilizers. Also note that higher NPK levels don't necessarily mean healthier plants. What You Should Know about NPK and Fertilizers Chemical fertilizers and organic fertilizers show their nutrient content with three bold numbers on the package. These numbers represent three different compounds: Nitrogen, Phosphorous, and Potash (Potassium), which we can also describe with the letters N-P-K. The three numbers listed on fertilizer labels correspond to the percentage of these materials found in the fertilizer."

"text": "Feeding The Cannabis Grow Bibleby Greg Green Feeding is the process of adding to your soil what the plant has taken out. You will only need 3 types of feeding solutions throughout your plants growth. You will need a bottle of feed where the NPK has equal or higher levels of N than P and K and you will also need a bottle that has higher levels of P than N and K. The first one is to be used during vegetative growth and the second is for flowering. You will also need a third bottle of secondary nutrients. You should only feed your plants when they need it. The amount of feeds that you will use is relative to your growing conditions and strain. Most plants only need to be feed every fortnight at 50% or less than what it says on the label. Marijuana plants burn easily. So never mix your solution at 100%. If it says use 1 cap full of feed per 3 gallons of water, then use 1 cap full per 6 gallons of water."

"text": "Home »Flowers How to Grow Cedar Hedges By Sarah Terry; Updated September 21, 2017The most common cedar variety used to create hedges is Thuja occidentalis, or white cedar, because it’s inexpensive, widely available and easy to grow. Growing cedar hedges takes some planning. You’ll need to select a spot where you want a privacy barrier and that is about 3 feet away from roads or walkways where salt may be used during wintertime. Choose a planting site that receives the appropriate amount of sunlight for the specific variety of cedar shrub that you’re planting, usually full sun to partial shade. Planting Your Cedar Hedges Plan out your cedar hedge by measuring the desired hedge length. You’ll need to space your cedar shrubs about 1 ½ feet apart, so calculate how many shrubs needed to create the hedge by dividing the required spacing footage by the number of feet measured for your hedge length. For example, if you want an 8-foot-long hedge, you’ll need about five or six cedar shrubs (8 feet / 1.5 feet = 5.33 shrubs). Dig a trench that is as long as the desired hedge, the same depth as the cedar shrubs’ planting containers and twice the width of the planting containers. Stand the cedar shrubs up in the trench, spacing them about 18 inches apart. Mix into the displaced soil from the trench some aged manure, peat moss or organic compost."

"text": "\"What Is Norvasc (Amlodipine)?7 Reviews | Get Coupons Norvasc is the brand name for amlodipine besylate, a prescription drug used to treat hypertension, or high blood pressure. Norvasc is also used to treat coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients without heart failure, and certain types of angina (chest pain) from CAD, such as activity- and stress-induced angina (chronic stable angina), and angina that occurs at rest (Prinzmetal’s angina). Taken regularly, Norvasc can control angina, but it doesn't stop chest pain after it has already begun. The drug can also lower a person's risk of cardiovascular events related to high blood pressure, such as strokes and heart attacks. Norvasc belongs to a class of drugs called calcium channel blockers, which block the flow of calcium into heart muscles and the muscles along the walls of blood vessels. Because the contraction of these muscles depends on calcium, Norvasc relaxes and widens blood vessels, thereby improving blood flow. Doctors also sometimes prescribe Norvasc \"\"off-label\"\" for the treatment of cluster headaches, migraines, Raynaud's syndrome (a blood vessel disorder), and congestive heart failure. Manufactured by Pfizer, Norvasc was first approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1987. In the early 1990s, researchers conducted the so-called PRAISE study, which was backed by Pfizer, to determine if Norvasc could help reduce the risk of death in people with severe heart failure. Though the study found little overall benefits to severe heart failure patients, it suggested that Norvasc might prolong the life of a subgroup of people with heart failure from non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (cardiac muscle damage not associated with low blood supply to the coronary arteries)."

I also eat when I take my blood pressure meds of a water pill- indapamide 2.5mg, norvasc and 40mg of celexa which I need that one, i have onset of palpitations dealing with some stressful issues of life and also my elmiron which is for interstitial cystitis so, 100mg 3xdaily, and I take my diabetes medicine of glucophage 1,000mg twice a day. With all of that I actually feel sluggish for a while and begin walking through the transitions of it all. By, 10:00am I have some energy and then I walk some more. So good luck to you... vtech10Votes: +2 Comment Vote up Report LU luvncurli2 3 Jun 2011Hello there, I too was taking indapamide 2.5 mg and my doctor and cvs pharmacy said its an old drug and they can find no imfo on it. my dr took me off of it and I have had lots of problems ever since. I got bad about missing my potassium Klor con 20 mg and that messed my blood test up so she took me off of it. Indapamide was the best ever water pill for me. VT vtech10 9 Jun 2011Hi , that is crazy, do you live far or something because Rite aide and CVS pharmacy, and Walgreens have plenty... I do not understand why it can't be ordered for you... they can always get it from other pharmacies and send you there, or you wait for it, but I do not know the details of the situation so I would question that with the doctor because if it controlled your pressure and helped reduced inflammmation and increased water in the body then it worked to keep your pressure down--- why change what works I say... My doctor gave me Actos for diabetes--- well it had me gaining weight quickly-so I stopped it and re-started the glucophage 1000 mg that he had me on prior and I am losing as I should but last month and the month prior I felt sick, swollen filled with fluid, legs tight, stiffer in joints more than usuall, I knew something was wrong and increase in aggitation as if my pressure was up--- so I had to tell him that the new medciation did not work for me it was killing me."

"text": "\"P0101 MAF Circuit Range/Performance Technical Description Mass Air Flow (MAF) Circuit Range/Performance What does that mean? This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is a generic powertrain code, which means that it applies to OBD-II equipped vehicles (Nissan, Chevrolet, GMC, Mercedes, VW, Toyota, Mazda, BMW, Ford, Audi, Honda, etc.). Although generic, the specific repair steps may vary depending on make/model. The MAF (mass air flow) sensor is a sensor mounted in a vehicle's engine air intake tract downstream from the air filter, and is used to measure the volume and density of air being drawn into the engine. The MAF sensor itself only measures a portion of the air entering and that value is used to calculate the total volume and density of air being ingested. The powertrain control module (PCM) uses that reading along with other sensor parameters to ensure proper fuel delivery at any given time for optimum power and fuel efficiency. Basically this P0101 diagnostic trouble code (DTC) means that there is a problem with the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor or circuit. The PCM detects that the actual MAF sensor frequency signal is not within a predetermined expected range of the calculated MAF value. Note: Some MAF sensors also incorporate an air temperature sensor, which is another value used by the PCM for optimal engine operation. Closely related MAF circuit trouble codes include: P0100 Mass or Volume Air Flow \"\"A\"\" Circuit Malfunction P0102 Mass or Volume Air Flow \"\"A\"\" Circuit Low Input P0103 Mass or Volume Air Flow \"\"A\"\" Circuit High Input P0104 Mass or Volume Air Flow \"\"A\"\" Circuit Intermittent Photo of a MAF sensor: Symptoms Symptoms of a P0101 code may include: Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) illumination (a.k.a."

"text": "DTC P0135 HO2S Heater Performance Bank 1 Sensor 1Circuit Description The PCM supplies a bias voltage (approximately 450 m V) on the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) signal high and low circuits. When you turn the ignition to the ON position, battery voltage is supplied to the HO2S heater. As the heater reaches the operating temperature, the HO2S voltage responds by changing from a bias voltage range to the normal operation. Typically, as the HO2S reaches the operating temperature, the HO2S voltage goes from a bias voltage to a voltage below 300 m V. Depending on the exhaust gas content, it is possible for the HO2S voltage to go above 450 m V. The PCM runs the heater test only on a cold start (depends on the cumulative air flow) and only once an ignition cycle. When you start the engine the PCM monitors the HO2S voltage. When the HO2S voltage goes above or below the bias range threshold, the PCM determines how much time it took. If the PCM detects that the process took too much time for the HO2S to enter into normal operating range, a DTC sets. The time the process takes the HO2S to reach operating temperature is based on the amount of air that flows into the engine. Conditions for Running the DTCDTCs P0101, P0102, P0103, P0112, P0113, P0117, P0118, P0121, P0122, P0123, P0125, P0335, P0336, P0351-P0358, P1258 not set. The intake air temperature and the engine coolant temperature are less than 50°C (122°F) and are within 8°C (14.5°F) of each other at engine start-up."

"text": "\"Electric Cars and How They Work Electric cars use an electric motor driven by a control unit. Their batteries are filled at charging stations and they produce no tailpipe emissions.by Maddy Martin on August 04, 2016Share Tweet Pin Within a few years, the total amount of all-electric car models has gone from a select, expensive few to well more than a dozen, with most major brands and a handful of new companies throwing their best technologies and innovations into these models. As the technology is constantly changing to create cars that are better for consumers, there's been a great deal of mixed messaging about their safety, \"\" greenness ,\"\" and convenience. While there's a lot to consider when buying a car, electric cars are far more convenient today than may people realize. To fully understand them, one must start with considering how electric cars work. First, one must grasp that while traditional cars and electric cars may appear the same on the outside, with similar bodies, interiors, and even color palettes compared to their hybrid and gas-powered counterparts, the \"\"guts\"\" of the vehicle are completely different technologies that can be molded into any shape. No matter the specific model, an electric car usually has three basic parts: an energy storage unit, a control unit, and the propulsion unit. Energy storage is usually in the form of a high-end battery, with the most common being a sizable chemical battery. The controller is the brains of the operation, the gateway to the propulsion unit, often converting AC to DC power. The propulsion unit turns that power into physical movement, serving as the electric motor."

"text": "\"THE PROGNOSISAlex Azar, President Trump's pick to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, in 2006. ( AP Photo/Evan Vucci)Talk to those who know Alex Azar, and you’ll hear about a man who loves to read presidential biographies, spend his free time with his wife and two teenage kids and visit his mom on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. He’s a lawyer who did a stint in the federal government before joining the drug industry, and has never held political office — a decided contrast to former Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price, whom President Trump has nominated Azar to replace. A former Eli Lilly and Co. senior executive before becoming a private consultant in January, Azar is no political fireball, his former co-workers say. They describe him as a tempered, cerebral sort, who initially comes across as quite serious but has a sense of humor underneath. Yet Azar could soon be leading perhaps the most politically charged of all the federal departments, after Trump announced (or rather, tweeted) yesterday that Azar is his pick to head HHS. Happy to announce, I am nominating Alex Azar to be the next HHS Secretary. He will be a star for better healthcare and lower drug prices!— Donald J. Trump (@real Donald Trump) November 13, 2017“He’s not the kind of guy who is going to be stirring up trouble,” says Tom Scully, who worked with Azar while the two served at HHS in the early 2000s. “ He was always willing to admit what he did not know — he’s a very good listener."

"text": "Walden Bjørn-Yoshimoto, MSc Biochemistry, University of Copenhagen (2010)Answered Nov 10, 2016 · Author has 553 answers and 466.4k answer views There are several ways to answer this, but I think the most useful is just to look at the numbers. Here I will not include any discussion about non-standard amino acids that can be encoded under different circumstances, but clarity, we will just pretend there are four bases and 20 amino acids. So, as I said, there are four different bases and 20 amino acids. So obviously, one base can’t code for one amino acid, since it would only be possible to encode 4^1 = 4 amino acids in that case, and we need at least 21 in our simplified case, 20 for amino acids and at least one for terminating. If you have two bases in any combination in a “block” (let’s call it a codon, since that is what a “block” coding for an amino acid is actually called), then you can have the possibility of 4^2 = 16 amino acids. So almost enough, but not quite. The next thing we can do is have three bases in a codon, this gives 4^3 = 64. I know I promised not to, but to really get at the number 61, I do have to include non-standard amino acids. Because the above shows why there is ~60 codons for encoding the different amino acids and stop codon. But why it is 61, and not 63 (leaving one for stop codon) is because of… well, maybe several things."

"text": "\"2015 GAMESDengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax By lateralus2801 - Oct 5, 2015 6458 5Share on Facebook Tweet on Twitter After waiting for what seems an eternity, the popular Japanese arcade fighting game, Degenki Bunko: Fighting Climax is out in the West. Was it worth the wait? Keep on reading to find out!For those of you who do not know what Dengeki Bunko is, it is a series of Japanese light novels that features several stories and characters that are published under the Degenki Bunko umbrella. What makes this so special is that it’s somewhat of a Super Smash Bros- type of 2D fighter that takes the most popular characters of the publication and pits them against each other. For die hard anime fans, there are lots of familiar faces that you will recognize from popular series such as Sword Art Online to Duradura!! But, as with all crossover type of games, there are fans that will be disappointed. A great feature in this game is the interaction that you really don’t expect from characters that come from different series. The mishmash of different characters from different worlds interacting with each other prior to fights is a fun experience for those hardcore fans. For someone that’s not an anime fan, I did grow to appreciate the effort that the developer put into the interaction and dialog. After Googling a few of these characters, the lightbulb went off and gave me my a-ha moment."

Those negotiations failed, motivating Microsoft to forge ahead with its own technology, dubbed \"\"True Type Open\"\" in 1994. [ 6] Adobe joined Microsoft in those efforts in 1996, adding support for the glyph outline technology used in its Type 1 fonts. These efforts were intended by Microsoft and Adobe to supersede both Apple's True Type and Adobe's Type 1 (\"\" Post Script \"\") font formats. Needing a more expressive font format to handle fine typography and the complex behavior of many of the world's writing systems, the two companies combined the underlying technologies of both formats and added new extensions intended to address those formats' limitations."

Unlike most conventional computer fonts, which are specific to a particular language or legacy character encoding and contain only a small subset of the UCS characters, these fonts attempt to include many thousands of glyphs, so that they can be used as a single typeface across multilingual documents.

Rather, it defines the abstract characters as a specific number (known as a codepoint) and also defines the required changes of shape depending on the context the glyph is used in (e.g., combining characters, precomposed characters and letter - diacritic combinations). The choice of font, which governs how the abstract characters in the Universal Coded Character Set (UCS) are converted into a bitmap or vector output that can then be viewed on a screen or printed, is left up to the user. If a font is chosen which does not contain a glyph for a codepoint used in the document, it typically displays a question mark, a box, or some other substitute character. Computer fonts use various techniques to display characters or glyphs. A bitmap font contains a grid of dots known as pixels forming an image of each glyph in each face and size. Outline fonts (also known as vector fonts) use drawing instructions or mathematical formulæ to describe each glyph."

Pricing it right Snow removal, sanding and salting work can be some of your most profitable work as long as you do not depend upon the weather. Too many contractors rely upon Mother Nature rather than a well-thought-out business plan and accurate pricing that minimizes risk while optimizing chances for increased profitability. Otherwise, the biggest snow job that you may face is a diluted profit and loss (P&L) statement that gives you a false sense of security. Putting a price on it To best understand the results of effective pricing, take a look at the following scenario. John owns a full-service landscape company. He wants to re-evaluate his pricing structure for winter snow removal and sanding work. The market for winter work is competitive. The going rate for sanding is $100 per cubic yard and $75 per hour for snow plowing with a one-ton truck. However, John is not sure that the $75 per hour rate covers his crew's drive time and 30 minutes of prep time before and after each storm. John has five drivers who plow snow."

In chemistry and manufacturing, electrolysis is a method of separating chemically bonded elements and compounds by passing an electric current through them. One use of electrolysis of water or artificial photosynthesis ( photoelectrolysis in a photoelectrochemical cell) is to produce hydrogen. Recently, researchers have shown that water splitting can be broken into two discrete steps using hierarchical nanostructure [2] or polyoxometalate based redox mediators. [ 3]In power to gas production schemes, the excess power or off peak power created by wind generators or solar arrays is used for load balancing of the energy grid by storing and later injecting the hydrogen into the natural gas grid."

This change in composition gives this steel a better edge retention.14C28N Sandvik (Steel)-has an increase in Chromium for better stainless attributes not as much Carbon as 13c26 however what is unique is the added Nitrogen (.11%) which increases corrosion resistance and hardness to provide exceptional edge retention. Ultimate combination of hardness and corrosion resistance Sandvik 14C28N is the latest development in Sandvik's range of knife steels. Optimized chemistry provides a top grade knife steel with a unique combination of excellent edge performance, high hardness and good corrosion resistance. This new grade matches the previous highest achievable hardness without affecting the microstructure."

"text": "\"European Union Electricity Market Glossary Legal definition of the 'multilateral system' is laid down by Article 4 (19) of the Mi FID II Directive. Pursuant to this provision 'm ultilateral system' means any system or facility operated and/or managed by:- an investment firm or- a market operator;in which multiple third-party buying and selling trading interests in financial instruments are able to interact in the system. Mi FID I does not use this definition. The characteristic feature of the Mi FID II is the requirement that all multilateral systems for the trading of financial instruments are a regulated market, MTF or OTF operated by an authorised firm or a regulated market. Multilateral versus bilateral systems It is sometimes underlined, Mi FID II has introduced this term in the opposition to 'bilateral systems'. UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in the Consultation Paper I on the Mi FID II implementation (CP15/43) of December 2015 observes: \"\"Multilateral systems may be contrasted with 'bilateral systems' where an investment firm enters into every trade on own account. [...] Any system or platform is a multilateral system where more than one market participant has the ability to interact with more than one other market participant on that system or platform\"\" (p. 264). Article 4 (19) Mi FID II'multilateral system' means any system or facility in which multiple third-party buying and selling trading interests in financial instruments are able to interact in the system Article 1 (7) of Mi FID II requires all multilateral systems in financial instruments to operate as:- a regulated markets,- multilateral trading facilities (MTFs), or- organised trading facilities (OTFs). It means, the definition of the 'multilateral system' under Mi FID II is common to any trading venue, a new type - OTF - including. Mi FID I provided for two types of trading venues only, regulated markets and MTFs, definitions thereof being very similar as sharing a number of features (in essence, both regulated markets and MTFs are systems which operate in accordance with non‑discretionary rules that bring together multiple buying and selling interests in a way that results in contracts)."

In this post I want to discuss the current Office 365 license plans available. A lot is changing at Microsoft (see our previous blog posts here and here) so this is all subject to change. The basic version of Office 365 for nonprofits is the Enterprise E1 plan. The E1 plan is free for qualifying nonprofits . E1 provides the Exchange Online email service which forms the backbone of Office 365. It also includes Lync Online, One Drive, Office Web Apps, etc. One recent addition to the E1 plan is Yammer Enterprise. Yammer is essentially an internal social network for your organization. Much the same way that Facebook can be used to plan parties and events, Yammer can be used to manage a team or project."

"text": "\"27Microsoft has been expanding the set of Microsoft-hosted app services under its Office 365 name. But there are a few more SKUs coming that the Softies haven't publicly detailed yet. Office 365, up until recently, was the way Microsoft referred to its Google Apps competitor. It's been the name for the bundle of Microsoft-hosted versions of Exchange (Exchange Online), Share Point (Share Point Online) and Lync (Lync Online). But with the \"\"New Office,\"\" which Microsoft recently released to manufacturing and plans to start rolling out in November 2012, Microsoft also is now using \"\"Office 365\"\" to refer to any Office product, on-premises or cloud-based, that it is selling as an annual subscription. The list of new Office 365 SKUs Microsoft disclosed earlier this year: Office 365 Home Premium Office 365 Small Business Premium Office 365 Pro Plus Office 365 Enterprise But there are more SKUs than what the Softies have mentioned publicly. This actually the final line-up, confirmed by Microsoft officials when I asked yesterday, from which users will get to choose as Microsoft delivers the updated Office 365 bits in November of this year: Office 365 Home Premium Office 365 Small Business Office 365 Small Business Premium Office 365 Pro Plus Office 365 Midsize Business Office 365 Enterprise The two new additions -- neither of which have been part of Microsoft's public customer preview/beta program for Office -- are Office 365 Small Business and Office 365 Midsize Business. What are these new versions and how much will they cost? Office 365 Small Business is almost identical to Office 365 Small Business Premium. The only difference is Office 365 Pro Plus, which is part of the Premium small-business release, but not the plain-old Office 365 Small Business."

"text": "\"Why Office 365 beats hosted Exchange for small business email By Derrick Wlodarz Published 5 years ago8 Comments Tweet Nearly six months ago, I voiced in on the Google Apps vs Office 365 debate and let it be known that (at the time) I fully believed Google Apps was the better platform in many respects. Fast forward to February 27, and Microsoft unveiled why waiting until the second (or third) try on a given product is usually a good bet. In all honesty, I think Microsoft has been on the right track with Office 365 for four to five months now, introducing quality features and fixing stability issues that plagued its reputation in the past. I'll go so far as to say that the Office 365 ecosystem has been nothing short of respectable lately. My technology consulting company Fire Logic steadily has recommended the suite as reliable alternative to Google Apps for some months now, and the results are extremely positive. Heavy Microsoft shops moving away from their legacy on-premise Exchange servers are itching for a new home, and the company seems to have a cloud of its own that is living up to even my stringent expectations. A big question that a lot of customers are asking now is: why shouldn't we just move to hosted Exchange? And that's an entirely valid debate to have. I've worked with countless customers over the years that have been on a bevy of providers from App River to Intermedia to Rack Space, naming just a few. While the experiences were generally good to great, I just don't think they match the value-added entirety that Office 365 brings to the table now."

"text": "M icrosoft Exchange Online Archiving, or more commonly known as in-place archive, is a cloud-based, enterprise-class archiving solution for email archiving, compliance, regulatory, and e Discovery purpose. Exchange Online Archiving is compatible with Exchange Server 2010, 2013, 2016 and later, and is also available as an add-on service for mailboxes that are hosted online through Exchange Online or other Office 365 SKUs. All Exchange Online plans (except Exchange Online Kiosk plan and Office 365 plans that include Exchange Online Kiosk such as Office 365 Enterprise K1 and Office 365 Government K1) have built-in support for in-place or cloud archiving of Exchange mailboxes. However, an Exchange Online Archiving (EOA) plan can be subscribed to add the support for in-place archive and unlimited archive storage. Exchange Online Archiving (EOA) is now available as an add-on for Enterprise K1,K2, E1, A2, G1, and Exchange Online Plan1, Exchange Online K SKUs at a cost of $3.00 per user license per month. Other than Exchange Online Kiosk plan, Exchange Online has two more options, namely Exchange Online Plan 1 and Exchange Online Plan 2. The differences between Exchange Online Plan 1 and Plan 2 in term of online archiving is that Exchange Online Plan 1 (and all Office 365 plans that include Exchange Online Plan 1 such as Office 365 Business Essentials, Business Premium, Enterprise E1, Government E1 and Education E1) has the storage limit of 50GB, and is shared among primary mailbox and archive mailbox. Meanwhile, Exchange Online Plan 2 (and all Office 365 plans that include Exchange Online Plan 2 such as Office 365 Enterprise E3, Education E3, Government E3, Enterprise E4, Education E4 and Government E4) has unlimited storage for archive mailbox, so you can store as many emails as you like in the archive while the primary mailbox can contain up to 50GB of space. One IMPORTANT thing to note is that if you’re using Microsoft Outlook desktop app, the in-place online archive mailbox is only visible in Outlook installed via Professional Plus edition, or through Office 365 Pro Plus subscription (and Office 365 plans of E3 and E4 values). Outlook from other editions of Office such as Office Home & Student, Office Home & Business, Office Standard and Office Professional will not display the archive mailboxes even though they’re present, available and supported."

"text": "\"What does it cost to use Microsoft Word on an i Pad? For many attorneys, the best new app that was released in 2014 was Microsoft Word for i Pad. As I noted in the review I wrote in April, the app works great when you want to view or edit Microsoft Word documents on an i Pad. I use the app almost every day in my law practice. But as I also noted in my review, while the app itself is free to download, if you want to edit documents you need to have an Office 365 subscription, and the pricing of that can be confusing. Last week, Microsoft announced new monthly subscription plans for Office 365, and some folks have asked me which plan is best for attorneys who want to use all of the features of Word for i Pad and the other Office suite apps (Excel for i Pad and Power Point for i Pad). The two new plans are Office 365 Personal for $6.99/month, which allows access on one computer and one tablet, and Office 365 Home for $9.99/month, which offers access to up to five computers and up to five tablets. Those monthly subscriptions are actually not a bargain because they cost more than an annual subscription. For example, you can get Office 365 Home for $99/year. Or you can even buy a subscription key card on Amazon and pay a discounted price of only $63.99 per year, which is only $5.33 a month."

By Jill Duffy January 30, 2013 10:02AM ESTFacebook Twitter Linkedin Pinterest Reddit Email Copy VIEW ALL PHOTOS IN GALLERYWith the final release of Microsoft Office 365 (Home Premium), Microsoft has taken bold steps to change its game. The latest office suite is radically different from previous versions of Microsoft Office, from how it's distributed to what's included to how it's priced. The good news is most of the changes are extremely positive, a large reason Microsoft Office 365 Home Premium edition remains an Editors' Choice here at PCMag. Even though change is good in this case, there's still a lot you need to know before deciding to buy or install the suite. Here are ten of the most important facts about the new Microsoft Office 365.1. In the cloud. Microsoft Office 365 is \"\"in the cloud\"\" from two perspectives. First, buying the suite necessarily requires downloading it, which is to say, you can't buy it on a disc (the exception being in developing countries, where Microsoft will continue to sell discs)."

Tutorial by Codrut Neagu published on 03/03/2016If you use a PC with Windows 8.1 or Windows 10, a Microsoft Surface tablet, an Xbox One console or a Windows Phone, you surely have encountered the term One Drive. The same is true if you're using Microsoft Office 2013, Microsoft Office 2016 or Office 365. Wondering what One Drive is and what it does? If you want an answer to this question, this article will explain everything you need to know: What is One Drive? One Drive is Microsoft's service for hosting files in the \"\"cloud\"\", that's available for free to all the owners of a Microsoft account. One Drive offers users a simple way to store, sync and share all kinds of files, with other people and devices on the Web. Xbox One, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 and Windows Phone use One Drive also for synchronizing your system settings, visual customizations, themes, app settings and even Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge tabs, history and saved passwords. The files stored in One Drive can be accessed directly from a web browser or, if you're using Windows 8.1 or Windows 10, directly from the operating system. Other means of accessing your One Drive files include apps for Windows, Windows Phone, Xbox and even Mac OS X, i OS or Android."

"text": "\"The Enterprise Cloud Suite (ECS) combines subscription licenses for the Windows Enterprise edition client OS, Office desktop suite, and collaboration and management software and services. Besides a bundling discount, ECS puts software under a common Per-User licensing model, which generally simplifies compliance compared to device-based models. However, ECS does not provide use rights after subscriptions expire, so ECS customers obligate themselves to ongoing long-term payments. This report explains the ECS licensing model, technologies and use rights provided by each ECS component, licensing prerequisites, pricing, and other purchasing details for many common scenarios. While this report provides a brief overview of special purchasing provisions exclusively for Enterprise Agreement (EA) and EA Subscription \"\"platform\"\" customers moving to ECS, EA-related issues will be covered in greater detail in a separate report. ECS Overview ECS is licensed under a Per-User subscription model, as are most Microsoft online (hosted) services and some on-premises software. Under this model, each individual user requires a User Subscription License (SL), and all use rights associated with the User SL—both for online services and on-premises software—terminate if the subscription is allowed to lapse. ( For a full explanation of the User SL licensing model, see \"\" User Subscription Licenses: An Overview \"\" on page 24 of the Oct. 2015 Update . ) ECS bundles three major User SLs into a single subscription. The first, the Windows Enterprise Upgrade User SL, licenses the Enterprise edition of the Windows OS for local and virtual desktops."

We also covered Office 365 phone support options for partners and customers, plus a whole lot more. The conversation occurred at Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference 2011 (WPC11) in Los Angeles. Office 365 Director of Product Management Kelly Waldher covered a range of topics with me. They included: 1. The Office 365 Marketplace: The Marketplace, like Office 365, officially launched June 28. In my opinion, Microsoft said too little about the marketplace on launch day. And Microsoft has said far too little about the marketplace here at WPC11.

The journey to simplify the admin experience in Office 365 continues. Previously, we increased all One Drive for Business users’ storage allotment to 1 TB. Along with this adjustment, we removed the One Drive for Business quota management tab from the Share Point Online admin center. Today we are introducing a new storage model based on usage, making it easier to manage availability of storage across your Share Point Online team sites. In addition, we increased the number of site collections limits to parallel and adjust the new usage model. Let’s dive into the details. The new usage model The first thing administrators will notice is they reclaim a lot more Share Point Online pooled storage. This is because the concept of reserved storage now only applies at the tenant level for Share Point Online. For example, if you had a site collection’s storage quota set to 100 GB in the old model and were only using 20 GB, it now has a usage limit of 100 GB in the new model, and returns 80 GB back to the tenant storage pool."

Fast forward to February 27, and Microsoft unveiled why waiting until the second (or third) try on a given product is usually a good bet. In all honesty, I think Microsoft has been on the right track with Office 365 for four to five months now, introducing quality features and fixing stability issues that plagued its reputation in the past. I'll go so far as to say that the Office 365 ecosystem has been nothing short of respectable lately. My technology consulting company Fire Logic steadily has recommended the suite as reliable alternative to Google Apps for some months now, and the results are extremely positive. Heavy Microsoft shops moving away from their legacy on-premise Exchange servers are itching for a new home, and the company seems to have a cloud of its own that is living up to even my stringent expectations. A big question that a lot of customers are asking now is: why shouldn't we just move to hosted Exchange? And that's an entirely valid debate to have. I've worked with countless customers over the years that have been on a bevy of providers from App River to Intermedia to Rack Space, naming just a few. While the experiences were generally good to great, I just don't think they match the value-added entirety that Office 365 brings to the table now."

The difference is in how the tea is processed. All tea leaves contain certain enzymes, which produce a chemical reaction called oxidation.

Like wine or coffee, every harvest of tea will vary year to year due to changes in climate, rainfall, and other seasonal conditions. Thus, tea from the same plantation or garden may taste very different from one year to the next. Moreover, a particular tea gains much of its individual character from how the leaves are cultivated and processed. To make sense of all the varieties possible, teas can be placed in several categories. The most common categories used today are green, white, oolong, black, and fermented. These categories refer to how much a tea is oxidized or, in tea terminology, fermented. Before modern science, Europeans thought teas were the result of the fermentation process similar to that of wine or cheese. In actuality, it is oxygen that is responsible for altering the tea leaves. By selectively exposing the tea leaves to the air, tea farmers and artisans can bring out certain flavors and aromas from the leaves."

The rule of thumb is that green tea turns hay after 6 months. If you want to keep it fresh - keep it in the cooler (4-5C/40F) in zip-locked package. Green tea easily absorbs any flavors, so if you don't want your lovely Bi Luo Chun smell like salami, keep it zipped. The only exception to 6 months expiration is vacuum. If you vacuum your green tea and put it in the fridge you can prolong its life for as long as 2-3 years. All of the above is true for good quality tea carefully produced by responsible farmers."

The uninitiated tea drinker might not know what to make of them. Understanding the difference can be confusing, especially since they seem to be used interchangeably. The more tea-savvy, however, can use these classifications to discover which companies really know their tea, and which are simply spreading misinformation. In this article, we’ll discuss the difference between the two and which teas fall into what category. Knowing the difference for yourself can help you to avoid getting hoodwinked by second-rate tea distributors. Oxidation This term explains the most common form of preparation for tea leaves, and is correct in most cases. Once a tea leaf has been plucked, it begins to wither and become oxidized. Certain enzymes in the cells of the leaves react to the oxygen in the air."

"text": "\"PREV BACK TO MAIN NEXTEnjoyment The Chemistry Of Tea November 01, 2011 by Diana Rosen It looks boring, but this is the stuff that makes tea so perfect Part of the enigma of tea is it can both stimulate and relax the body, characteristics that the earliest patrons of tea, Buddhist monks, embraced wholeheartedly. In their efforts to meditate for long periods of time, they were greatly assisted by tea's ability to keep their bodies relaxed in meditative poses while keeping their minds alert along the path to meditative calm. From the ever-expanding understanding of chemistry, we now know the scientific reasons for tea's impact on monks...and the rest of us. Yet even the most learned of chemists cannot identify the thousands of chemical molecules in Camellia sinensis. To further compound the mystery, the chemical elements of tea are different when processed as green, oolong or black. When tea lovers add milk or lemon to tea in the cup, the chemistry of tea can change once again. To summarize the chemistry of tea, it's all about the \"\"Pac men\"\" of chemistry, polyphenols, which eat away free radicals; the quinones which contribute to aroma, and thearubigens which contribute both to the taste and the color of tea. The volatile oils in tea, which are elevated during processing, also contribute to color and taste and are fragile; age or poor storage conditions can greatly compromise these and make the tea tasteless and faded in color. One common misconception is that there is tannin or tannic acid in tea. Tannins, a word used erroneously in the 19th century in early books on tea, are actually polyphenols, antioxidants that are healthful and, more importantly, give tea its taste profile. \"\""

This process permits little oxidization of the leaves and retains the fresh taste of the leaves. Contrary to popular belief, Chinese green teas may contain more caffeine that Chinese black teas but both are less than the black teas consumed in the West that originate from India, and all teas are significantly less than coffee (see Health for a fuller discussion on caffeine). Popular types: Cloud Mist Green Tea Long Jing (Dragon Well) Green Tea White Tips Pi Lo Chun (Bi Lo Chun) Green Tea White Peony White Tea (Bai Mu Dan)Silver Needle White Tea (Bai Hao Yin Zhen)Fermented Fermented teas are known as black teas (known as Red Teas in China). The flavour is developed by keeping the leaves warm and moist for a few hours which turns them black as the chemicals in the leaves break them down by reacting with the air. The leaves are then dried by a variety of methods which affects the taste and then graded and pacakaged. Popular types: Keemun Black Tea (First Grade)Golden Tips Red Tea (Dien Hong)Semi-fermented These are the Oolong teas that are sometimes called semi-green or blue-green tea. The process is the same as the fermented type above with the time of oxidization adjusted to make the tea taste more green or black and bring out certain taste characteristics."

No need to worry. It’s easy if you start with fine tea, add high quality water and steep to your personal taste. Since different types of tea require different temperatures of water (black and puer tea need boiling water, but this will ’stew’ green and white teas) we have given general guidelines to get started, but everyone has personal preferences so adjust the steeping time or amount of tea to your taste. You are now using whole leaf tea, and unlike tea bags, they can be infused several times. Green and white tea can be infused at least three times while oolongs can be infused as many as seven. 12 oz Pot Quantity Temperature Time White Tea 2 Tbsp (3 gms) 170-195F 1-3 mins. Green Tea 1 Tbsp (3 gms) 140-180F 1/2-2 mins."

"text": "\"Mar2410 Reasons Why Tea is Better Than Coffee Tea Musings Add comments Thinking of switching from coffee to tea? Here's a list of advantages you may not have thought about before that may help you decide! - Economic: Tea and coffee both vary in price depending on your source, but many teas (whites, greens and oolongs, and some pu'ers) can be resteeped multiple times using the same leaves, thereby costing less per cup overall than coffee. The spent-leaves can also be used as an excellent mulch/fertilizer for your flower/vegetable garden (though to be fair - so can coffee!) - Simplicity: To get the best possible flavor out of coffee you must grind your own beans (grinder: $20+) just before brewing and use a coffee machine ($20+) with single-use filters ($5+, recurring). Tea leaves require no preparation, wasteful filters or expensive gizmos in order to extract the best possible flavor - simply drop them in hot water, strain and pour. - Environmental: Coffee filters can be used only once and are then thrown away. None are needed for tea. Tea companies are also, on the whole, much more involved with eco-friendly, fair-trade and organic projects and processes. The coffee-roasting process also emits particulate matter, volatile organic compounds, organic acids and many gaseous pollutants into the atmosphere."

Black Tea This tea goes through the most processing. Once the leaves are picked they are left out in the sun to become slightly wilted. The leaves are then rolled to break open their tissue. The inner chemicals react with the air and begin to ferment. During the fermentation, the leaves darken and change from green to red and finally to black. After the fermenting is complete, the leaves are dried and then packaged. Assam These teas are grown in the Assam Valley of India."

"text": "From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Periodic acid-Schiff stain)navigation search Periodic acid Periodic acid–Schiff ( PAS) is a staining method used to detect polysaccharides such as glycogen, and mucosubstances such as glycoproteins, glycolipids and mucins in tissues. The reaction of periodic acid oxidizes the vicinal diols in these sugars, usually breaking up the bond between two adjacent carbons not involved in the glycosidic linkage or ring closure in the ring of the monosaccharide units that are parts of the long polysaccharides, and creating a pair of aldehydes at the two free tips of each broken monosaccharide ring. The oxidation condition has to be sufficiently regulated so as to not oxidize the aldehydes further. These aldehydes then react with the Schiff reagent to give a purple-magenta color. A suitable basic stain is often used as a counterstain. PAS diastase stain (PAS-D) is PAS stain used in combination with diastase, an enzyme that breaks down glycogen. Alcian blue/periodic acid–Schiff (AB/PAS or AB-PAS) uses alcian blue before the PAS step.

The fibres can vary in diameter, and in the way in which they are 'woven' into a network. For example, in tendons, the fibres run parallel to resist forces in the direction in which the muscle produces force. In bone they are arranged in alternating parallel layers. Whereas GAGs are good at resisting compressive forces, fibres are good at resisting tensile forces. There are two main types of fibre; collagen, and elastin and fibronectin.

"text": "Stained Concrete Cost How much does it cost to stain a concrete floor? Cost of Staining Concrete Time: 01:56 View all concrete floor videos The cost of stained concrete can vary greatly. For a basic application of a single stain color with sealer and minimal surface prep, most decorative concrete contractors charge between $2 and $4 per square foot. As the complexity of the job rises, so will the price. Factors that influence pricing are as follows: difficulty of stain application, surface prep requirements, the size of the job, the type of sealer used, and your local market. More elaborate stain projects incorporating faux finishing, multiple colors, and designs or borders created by sawcutting, sandblasting, or stenciling can run much higher (about $15 per square foot or more) due to the time and skill level involved. When comparing the cost of stained concrete with alternative flooring materials, such as carpet, tile, or hardwood, don't forget to factor in longevity and replacement costs. Properly sealed and maintained stained concrete will last for decades and rarely needs replacement. It's invulnerable to tearing, gouging, mold, or water damage. Even if the stained surface wears after time, it can often be brought back to life with some touchup staining and reapplication of the protective coating."

Recoating: $200-$250 per room Refinishing: $340-$900+ per room E-mail Post Tweet Comments (41)Hardwood floors add stylish elegance or folksy charm to a home, depending on the type of wood, layout and condition. Refinishing to remove ground-in dirt while sanding out dents and dings can revive this highly visible portion of your interior decor. Typical costs: It's about $200-$250 (averaging $1/square foot) to recoat a slightly worn 225-square-foot (15x15 feet) room, a process also known as screening. Typically this takes about a day or two, and restores a floor that's in relatively good condition. Expect to pay $340-$900 (about $1.50-$4 a square foot) to completely refinish a 15x15 foot room. That generally includes sanding down to the bare wood and applying at least 2 and sometimes 3 coats of finish. Simple projects average 2-4 days, but the process can take anywhere from 3 days to several weeks, depending on the type of finish, stain and weather conditions. The price range can jump to $850-$1,125 (around $3.75-$5/square foot) or more for a refinishing specialist to do a customized job on a 225-square-foot vintage wood floor, using multiple coats of chemicals, stains and other finishes to create just the right look. Generally this more labor-intensive approach requires at least 8-11 days, or more."

A new deck’s strength and sheer durability makes you feel like it will last forever. But as some homeowners soon find out, that newness can wear off and that once beautiful deck becomes a neglected eyesore. But there is hope and to keep your new deck looking new and lasting for many years to come, you merely have to take care of it. Weather and elements like moisture and fading UV rays are a new deck’s biggest enemy. So the goal in keeping a deck looking good is to provide it with some protection. Some deck owners are under the false impression that “pressure treated” means the wood has already been treated from weather. The truth is that the chemical treatment added to pine is to deter bugs and insects from eating the wood."

This terminology is appropriate because these glands are positioned in a ventral aspect in respect to the cloaca. Furthermore, these glands empty into the urodeum at its most caudal extremity (see below). Thus, collectively, “ventral urodeal” was used to distinguish these novel glands from glands described previously that empty into the ventral aspect of the proctodeum in lizards (for review see Whiting, 1969 ). Ventral Urodeal Glands Ventral urodeal glands are present in every taxon of Nerodia examined except for N. cyclopion. There was no evidence of ventral urodeal glands in any other genus of Thamnophiini nor in the genera examined for outgroup comparison. Ventral urodeal glands open into the caudal extremity of the urodeum, and two gland masses are always present lateral to where the urodeal sphincter branches from the ventral extremity of the urodeum (compare Fig. 1 A, 1 B). The two gland masses are embedded between circular, smooth muscle fibers lining the urodeal chamber and skeletal muscle of the body cavity (i.e., the position of the glands is caudal to the plane of section where the cranial region of the ventral aspect of the urodeum frees from the body cavity). We found little qualitative variation in the histological structure of the glands when examining the two specimens from each species.enlarge figure Fig."

In addition to small cell neuroendocrine carcinomas and carcinoid tumors of the prostate, prostatic adenocarcinomas may have NED. The incidence and clinical relevance of NED in prostatic adenocarcinoma is not clearly understood because of conflicting results in the reported studies, and evaluation of NED is not routinely performed in clinical practice. This review is an overall synthesis with an aim to develop a more comprehensive understanding and practical approach towards the current knowledge of neuroendocrine differentiation.

My question is which one (FISH or IF) should I do first without affecting the other?2. What fixation techniques do you think is best to preserve the cell structure? I really appreciate any input. Thanks Immunohistochemical Staining Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization Immunofluorescence Staining Human Cell Lines Amoeba Intracellular Trafficking Share All Answers ( 20)3 years ago Yilmaz Niyaz Carl Zeiss AGDear Yohannes,I would start with that technique, which has the most stringent staining conditions first. In your case this would be the FISH. After that, you can follow the IF staining of your microtubuli. By this, the Fi SH staining should be unaffected by the IF staining procedure."

I suspect this faux pas cost her the win. Again and again, I've seen Maltese face hair ruined by drastic attempts to remove stains. Strong solutions can irritate skin and pose a danger to eyes. I wonder how many Maltese have suffered beyond repair for the white-face cause. Folks who fixate on face stains and risk quick fixes are generally newcomers to the breed. Face-stain phobics should probably just shave their Maltese's faces or switch to brown Chihuahuas. Most long-term Maltesers become more practical about staining, the hard way or otherwise. Eventually, a little peach tint on the cheek hairs does not seem terribly unattractive."

What type of paint would you recommend and would you topcoat with lacquer? Would a colored lacquer work as the base instead of paint, then followed by glaze, followed by finish coat of clear lacquer? Forum Responses (Finishing Forum From contributor R: Yes, you can apply a glaze over a colored lacquer, and yes, you can apply a clear lacquer coat over the glaze that's been applied to a colored lacquer. You can also apply a glaze over an oil based paint, and yes, you can apply a clear oil based varnish over the glaze that's been applied over the oil based paint. It all depends on which coating system you plan on using. The same process is used for water based products as well.

Alcian blue or alcian blue ( / ˈ æ l ʃ ə n /) is any member of a family of polyvalent basic dyes, of which the Alcian blue 8G (also called Ingrain blue 1, and C. I. 74240, formerly called Alcian blue 8GX from the name of a batch of an ICI product) has been historically the most common and the most reliable member. [ 1] It is used to stain acidic polysaccharides such as glycosaminoglycans in cartilages and other body structures, some types of mucopolysaccharides, sialylated glycocalyx of cells etc. For many of these targets it is one of the most widely used cationic dyes for both light and electron microscopy. Use of alcian blue has historically been a popular staining method in histology especially for light microscopy in paraffin embedded sections and in semithin resin sections. The tissue parts that specifically stain by this dye become blue to bluish-green after staining and are called \"\"Alcianophilic\"\" (comparable to \"\" eosinophilic \"\" or \"\" sudanophilic \"\"). Alcian blue staining can be combined with H&E staining, PAS staining and van Giesonstaining methods. Alcian blue can be used to quantitate acidic glycans both in microspectrophotometric quantitation in solution or for staining glycoproteins in polyacrylamide gels or on western blots."

Robert Koch's original photomicrographs of Bacillus anthracis, the agent of anthrax. Compare the cell morphology and spore position with the Gram stain below (Figure 2). This is Bacillus anthracis. Beware of phony and mislabeled images of B. anthracis on the internet, including some that are posted by otherwise credible websites. Look for large cells with square ends and centrally-located ellipsoid spores when identifying Bacillus anthracis. Bacillus anthracis is very large, Gram-positive, sporeforming rod, 1 - 1.2µm in width x 3 - 5µm in length. The bacterium can be cultivated in ordinary nutrient medium under aerobic or anaerobic conditions."

Diekema 1, 3+ Author Affiliations1Departments of Pathology3Medicine, College of Medicine2Department of Epidemiology, College of Public Health, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa The spectrum of mycotic disease continues to expand well beyond the familiar entities of candidiasis and aspergillosis ( 73, 99 ). The field of medical mycology has become a challenging study of infections caused by a wide and taxonomically diverse array of opportunistic fungi ( 73 ). Previously we reviewed some of the less-common “emerging” opportunistic fungal pathogens with an emphasis on resistance to new and established antifungal therapies ( 73 ). In this article, we discuss several exotic and unusual infections that historically have been considered fungal or pseudofungal infections based on their clinical and histopathologic presentation but have been difficult to classify because they grow poorly or not at all on artificial media. In one instance, recent molecular evidence has indicated that an organism previously considered to be a fungus ( Rhinosporidium seeberi) is in fact a protistan parasite ( 29, 37 ). We also discuss a nonreplicative pulmonary infection (adiaspiromycosis), two subcutaneous mycoses (entomophthoromycosis and lobomycosis), two algal infections (chlorellosis and protothecosis), and an infection due to the oomycete Pythium insidiosum. The diagnosis of these rare infections is based largely on detection of characteristic structures observed on histopathologic examination of tissue. A listing of the infections, the etiologic agents, and the typical morphology in tissue is provided in Table 1 and Fig. 1 and 2 ."

Expenditures noted on the index include actual expenditures and expenditures that are attributed to households in the United States; data that pertains to services, durables and non-durables is measured through the index. Sharing similarities with the Consumer Price Index (CPI), the PCE is part of the personal income report issued by the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the Department of Commerce . Next Up Durables Personal Income Personal Income And Outlays Expenditure Method BREAKING DOWN 'Personal Consumption Expenditures - PCE'The PCE is often considered predictable, and many analysts prefer to utilize the CPI because of its widely touted ability to aid in determining economic stability or lack thereof, due largely to the fixed basket of goods used. Inflation In the matter of gauging inflation, and the overall economic stability of the U. S., the Federal Reserve prefers not to lean on the go-to barometer of economic health. Because the CPI is the most well-known economic indicator, the PCE is largely forgotten. The Fed, however, prefers the PCE index when reviewing economic conditions and charting a course of action that impacts inflation and employment. The main reason for this is the range of expenditures included in the PCE. While the CPI helps clearly depict shifts or changes in consumer expenditures, it only reveals changes in those expenditures that fall within the pre-established fixed basket. The PCE, on the other hand, includes a great variety of expenses in homes across the country."

"text": "A: Since the founding of the United States in 1776 the highest year-over-year inflation rate observed was 29.78% in 1778. Inflation is calculated using the yearly change in the consumer price index (CPI), which was first introduced in 1913. CPI data before 1913 is estimated using a variety of methods and sources. Since the introduction of the CPI, the highest inflation rate observed was 19.66% in 1917. Year-over-year inflation is calculated by subtracting the value of the CPI at the beginning of the year, and subtracting the value at the end of year. This result is divided by the value of the CPI at the beginning of the year and multiplied by 100. CPI data since its formal introduction as an index has been widely viewed as an accurate description of consumer prices in the United States. CPI data before 1913 is more problematic due to under-reporting, over-reporting, lack of data and different reporting standards utilized. Before the introduction of the U. S. Federal Reserve by the Federal Reserve Act in 1913, the U. S. economy grew in fits and starts. Periods of rapid inflation and growth in asset prices were followed by severe shocks and panics."

This measure of inflation excludes these items because their prices are much more volatile. It is most often calculated using the consumer price index (CPI). Next Up Headline Inflation Inflation Trade Price Inflation Inflation Targeting BREAKING DOWN 'Core Inflation'Core inflation is measured by both the the CPI and the core personal consumption expenditures index (PCE). Other methods of calculating core inflation include the outliers method, which removes the products that have had the largest price changes. Core inflation is thought to be an indicator of underlying long-term inflation. Why Food and Energy Aren't Included in Core Inflation Food and energy prices are exempt from this calculation because their prices are too volatile. Because food and energy are necessary staples, demand doesn't change much even though prices may rise. Even though gas prices may rise with the price of oil, you will still need to fill up the tank in order to drive your car. Similarly, you won't be pushing off buying your groceries just because prices are rising at the store."

In the short run, increased consumption in the United States can support the exports of developing economies, enhancing global growth prospects. However, in the long run, too much consumption can constrain necessary growth in investment, which is more likely to sustain an economy in the long run. The U. S. gross domestic product (GDP) is the sum of consumer spending (C), investment (I), government spending (G), and net exports (NX). Since 1980, the Consumer Spending component of GDP has grown fairly dramatically, as noted in the above graph. Personal consumption expenditure (PCE) is comprised of three categories, including durable goods, non-durable goods, and services."

Personal consumption historically represents 70% of our nation’s GDP. In part II our series examining gross domestic product as a means to understand what is holding back our nation’s economic recovery we will examine personal consumption expenditures using the expenditure approach: C + I + G + (X - M) = GDPC = Personal Consumption Expenditures I = Gross Private Fixed Investment G = Government Expenditures and Investment X = Net Exports M = Net Imports Attempting to balance the playing field for all readers, we will use the following definitions which include hyperlinks for those wishing to enhance their comprehensive knowledge of the material presented. The personal consumption expenditures price index (PCE) measure is the component statistic for consumption in GDP collected by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. It consists of the actual and imputed expenditures of households and includes data pertaining to durable and non-durable goods and services. It is essentially a measure of goods and services targeted towards individuals and consumed by individuals. Personal consumption expenditures are officially separated into three categories in the national income and product accounts: durable goods, non-durable goods, and services. Durable goods are the tangible goods purchased by consumers that tend to last for more than a year. Common examples are cars, furniture, and appliances. The two most important subcategories of durable goods in the National Income and Product Accounts are \"\"motor vehicles and parts\"\" and \"\"furniture and other household equipment.\"\""

DESCRIPTIONPCE tablets (erythromycin particles in tablets) are an antibacterial product containing specially coated erythromycin base particles for oral administration. The coating protects the antibiotic from the inactivating effects of gastric acidity and permits efficient absorption of the antibiotic in the small intestine. PCE tablets are available in two strengths containing either 333 mg or 500 mg of erythromycin base. PCE tablets 500 mg tablets contain no synthetic dyes or artificial colors. Erythromycin is produced by a strain of Saccharopolyspora erythraea (formerly Streptomyces erythraeus) and belongs to the macrolide group of antibiotics. It is basic and readily forms salts with acids. Erythromycin is a white to off-white powder, slightly soluble in water, and soluble in alcohol, chloroform, and ether.

Inflation rates and speculation about future inflation are mentioned so often in the media that it's important to know some basics about inflation. What is inflation? Inflation is defined as a rise in the general price level. In other words, prices of many goods and services such as housing, apparel, food, transportation, and fuel must be increasing in order for inflation to occur in the overall economy. If prices of just a few types of goods or services are rising, there isn't necessarily inflation. Inflation may be measured in several ways. The September 1999 Ask Dr. Econ question notes that inflation is commonly measured by \"\"either a Gross Domestic Product Deflator (GDP Deflator) or a Consumer Price Index (CPI) indicator. The GDP Deflator is a broad index of inflation in the economy; the CPI Index measures changes in the price level of a broad basket of consumer products.\"\""

[ One ppb is the same as one micro-gram per liter.] It is important to note that detection of TCE, PCE, and other organic solvents in water samples was not possible prior to about 1973 and the detection equipment (gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer) was not commercially available until the late 1970s. Physical and Chemical Properties of TCE and PCEShow Caption TCE is a volatile organic compound (VOC) with the chemical formula C 2 HCl 3. In the environmental industry, it is called a dense, non-aqueous phase liquid because it has a high density (1.465 g/ml), low solubility in water (1.070 g/L at 20 o C), and it adsorbs onto carbon (K oc = 2.03-2.7).

Acute Exposure Acute exposure to tetrachloroethylene at air levels of 100 - 200 ppm causes irritation of the skin, eyes and upper respiratory tract (Boulet 1988). Non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea can occur (HSDB 2005) . CNS effects have also been observed with acute inhalation exposures of 50 - 300 ppm of tetrachloroethylene. At these levels, neuromotor effects may be seen ( e.g., the Romberg test may be positive), and results of certain coordination and behavioral tests may be abnormal. At higher concentrations in air, unconsciousness can occur. Acute tetrachloroethylene ingestion has been reported. In one case, up to 16 g was ingested by a 6-year-old child, who recovered completely, without liver, renal, or CNS injury (Koppel, Arndt et al."

It may also been found in textile or fur dyes, dark coloured cosmetics, temporary tattoos, photographic developer and lithography plates, photocopying and printing inks, black rubber, oils, greases and gasoline. The use of PPD as a hair dye is popular because it is a permanent dye that gives a natural look. Hair can also be shampooed without becoming decoloured and perming to achieve waves or curls can be done without difficulty. PPD hair dyes usually come packaged as 2 bottles, one containing the PPD dye preparation and the other containing the developer or oxidizer. PPD is a colourless substance that requires oxygen for it to become coloured. It is this intermediate, partially oxidised state that may cause allergy in sensitive individuals. Fully oxidized PPD is not a sensitiser thus individuals with PPD allergy can wear wigs or fur coats dyed with PPD safely."

It is defined as a set of concepts, definitions, and propositions that projects a view of phenomena by designating specific interrelationships among concepts for purposes of describing, explaining and predicting phenomena. In the world of healthcare the nurse through the understanding of theories attempt to explain why nurses do what they do. Nursing theories are the creative products of nurses who seek to thoughtfully describe relationships and interactions that exist within nursing practice (Ingram, 2009). Nursing theorist Cheryl Tatano Beck (1949- present) developed a middle-rang theory that focused on postpartum depression (PPD). Beck identified a significant gap in maternal care specifically in regard to maternal blues, she wrote: “What has not been given equal priority in postpartum follow-up care, however, is the mother’s psychological status, more specifically, the phenomenon of maternity blues. Early discharge mothers are at home when the blues usually occurs during the first week after delivery. Specific assessment for maternity blues should routinely be part of the nurse’s assessment of these mothers during home visits” (Lasiuk & Ferguson, 2005, p. 131). Beck, after reviewing research on the topic of maternity blues began clarifying the differences among the concepts of postpartum psychosis, postpartum depression, and maternity blues (Lasiuk & Ferguson, 2005, p. 131). This paper seeks to explore Beck’s theory of postpartum depression, its significance in nursing practice, and how it addresses the concepts of the metaparadigm of nursing; person (man), health, environment and nursing."

"text": "\"tuberculin skin test Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Legal, Financial, Acronyms, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia . Tuberculin Skin Test Definition Tuberculosis (TB) is an airborne infectious disease caused by the bacteria Mycobacteriumtuberculosis. Besides culturing in the laboratory, the two most common types of tests to screenfor exposure to this disease are the Mantoux PPD tuberculin skin test, which is generallyconsidered more reliable, and the older TB tine test, which is now rarely used. These tests aredesigned to help identify individuals who may have been infected by the tuberculosis bacteria. A diagnosis of active, infectious tuberculosis is never made solely based on the results of a TB skin test, but requires further testing, including a sputum culture and a chest x-ray. Purpose Because TB is spread through the air, especially in poorly ventilated areas, it is more commonlyfound among people living in crowded conditions, such as jails, nursing homes, and homelessshelters. Often, a TB skin test will be given as part of a physical examination when a person is hiring a new employee, particularly for those individuals seeking employment in the health care or food service professions. People can be exposed to or infected with TB without showing any symptoms or necessarilydeveloping the disease. Individuals with normally functioning immune systems generally preventthe spread of the bacteria by \"\"walling off\"\" or encysting the bacteria within the body. To be at riskfor infection a person must have or had close contact with someone who has active tuberculosis (such as a friend or family member)."

Two doctors gave me completely different advice on how to slowly come off Lexapro so I was curious if anyone else has successfully weaned off it? If so, how did you do it??? I know you should be on them for at least 1 year but I would still like to at least try getting off. I want to do it slowly so I don't get the withdrawal symptoms. Thank you so much!! !"

Anergy Skin Testing and Preventive Therapy for HIV-Infected Persons: Revised Recommendations Summary This report updates and supersedes previous recommendations (MMWR 1991;40 {No. RR-5}:27-33) for the use of anergy skin testing in conjunction with purified protein derivative (PPD)-tuberculin skin testing of persons infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In February 1997, CDC convened a meeting of consultants to discuss current information regarding anergy skin testing, PPD skin testing, and tuberculosis (TB) preventive therapy for HIV-infected persons. In formulating these recommendations, CDC considered the results of this meeting, as well as a review of published studies pertaining to PPD and anergy skin testing of persons who are infected with HIV. Isoniazid preventive therapy is effective in reducing the incidence of active TB among persons who have HIV infection and latent TB. Because of the complications associated with TB disease in HIV-infected persons, these persons must be screened for tuberculin infection. HIV-infected persons who have positive reactions to skin testing with PPD tuberculin should be evaluated to exclude active TB and offered preventive therapy with isoniazid if indicated."

But, whatever your position, let’s look this straight in the face and see if we can knock it on the head. There’s a dark side to the purity of henna I’m afraid: a horrible harsh reality which is summed up in this simple little question: is henna safe? I can’t answer that question on a scientific level, and I have to give it to you straight: what very little hard core scientific opinion exists tells us that, at face value, pure henna is toxic and mutagenic.

"text": "Home NACHA and the ACH Network News and Press Releases Use of PPD Debit Entries for Check Conversion Use of PPD Debit Entries for Check Conversion Posted September 25, 2005In 2000, NACHA implemented a set of rules and formatting requirements related to Point-of- Purchase (POP) entries – transactions designed specifically for use by Originators as a means to convert, at the point of purchase, a consumer’s check to an ACH debit for an in-person purchase of goods or services. The POP application established the legal framework and formatting requirements needed to protect ACH participants with respect to check conversion transactions initiated at the point of purchase and requires, among other obligations, the explicit authorization of the consumer and the specific handling of the consumer’s check as a source document. It also defines requirements for the provision of information on the consumer’s bank account statement to enable consumers to identify the converted check. It has recently come to NACHA’s attention that some ACH participants plan to use one-time Preauthorized Payment and Deposit (PPD) entries for the conversion of checks collected at the point of purchase rather than processing such transactions as POP entries, which were specifically designed for electronic check conversion under the Rules . In these cases, a retailer accepts a consumer’s check at the point of purchase and stamps the back of the check with authorization language for an electronic debit. The consumer subsequently signs the authorization on the back of the check. The retailer later transports the check to a back office for processing, at which time it captures the MICR information from the check and originates a PPD debit entry for the amount of the check. Use of the PPD Standard Entry Class Code for the conversion of consumer checks accepted at the point of purchase for payment of goods and services is not expressly recognized under the NACHA Operating Rules, as the POP application was designed with the express purpose of converting checks at the point of purchase. The practice of using PPD entries for check conversion activity for in-person payments is inconsistent with the intent of the NACHA Operating Rules, as the POP application was specifically designed to provide consumer protections and formatting requirements unique to this type of conversion activity. No similar provisions currently exist with PPD, potentially resulting in customer service issues or problems for the consumer."

Sometimes they color their hair just for fun or just because they are bored of their original hair color; whereas some people color their hair to cover up the grays. But hair coloring is not all fun as it seems to be, it can be quite a daunting or a nightmarish experience for some, as there is a small percentage of people who can develop an allergic reaction to the hair dye product. Most of the commercially produced hair dyes, especially the permanent kind, contain Paraphenylenediamine (PPD) along with peroxide. When these two ingredients react, there is partial oxidization and coloration of the PPD and this state of PPD results in an allergic reaction. Symptoms of Hair Dye Allergy Hair dye allergy produces different reactions or conditions in the body including: Hair Dye Allergy Causing Symptoms of Dermatitis Dermatitis is the commonest symptom which occurs as an allergic reaction to hair dye. A person's risk of developing this condition increases with the usage of hair dye. Dermatitis is characterized by inflammation, redness, itchiness and swelling of the skin around the eyelids, hair line, ears, neck or beard. An individual who develops sensitivity to PPD will commonly experience symptoms after 10 days of the first usage of hair dye. Subsequent use or exposure to hair dye will produce a reaction in about 6 to 72 hours."

Podiatrists have always provided non-reimbursable services such as foot orthotics and non-covered routine foot care to their patients.

What do these terms mean, and does it really make any difference what kind of finish I have? AThose terms refer to the sheen or gloss level of the paint, and, yes, it does make a difference which one you use. The sheen or gloss level simply means the degree of light reflectance of the paint. The terms you mention are ones that various manufacturers use to describe the shininess of their products. The following chart explains what each term means, and where paint with that type of gloss should be used. Your local Dulux paint retailer also can recommend the type of gloss you need for your particular paint project. High Gloss (70+ on a 60 degree gloss meter)Where to Use - For kitchen & bathroom walls, kitchen cabinets, banisters & railings, trim, furniture, doors, door jambs & windowsills. Comments - More durable, stain resistant & easier to wash. However, the higher the gloss, the more likely surface imperfections will be noticed."

Operating in more than 60 countries with more than 38,000 employees, PPG posted sales of $14.9 billion in 2011 and is the second largest manufacturer behind only Azko Nobel. The Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-based PPG is a global supplier of paints, coatings, chemicals, optical products, specialty materials, glass and fiber glass. The 2011 corporate financial summary indicates that sales were portioned with 73 % from coatings and 27% other businesses. PPG 2011 COATING sales revenue breakdown:14% architectural approximately 2.1 billion (now 3.6b – 22%)28% industrial approximately 4.2 billion31% performance approximately 4.6 billiontotal coating sales 73% approximately 10.9 billionother businesses 27% approximately 4 billon The deal adds about 1.5b in sales to PPG’s 14.9b; without the 2013 growth projections, the numbers grow to 16.4b in total sales and (2.1 + 1.5 = 3.6b in architectural coatings), which increases the overall coating business to around 76% of revenue."

The new \"\"SG\"\" body was a hipper symmetric sharp double cutaway, scalloped body style. In 1961, the first year of production of the SG body shape, sales of the SG Standard were two and a half time greater than the single cutaway Les Paul Standard sales of 1960. But by 1962, SG Standard sales fell 15% from 1961. Gibson wasn't happy that their solidbody market share was shrinking."

K. Prospective Diabetes Study Individuals with diabetes are at increased risk of developing microvascular complications (retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) ( 1) and U. K. Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS) ( 2) showed that treatment programs resulting in improved glycemic control, as measured by Hb A 1c, reduced the microvascular complications of diabetes. The effect of these treatment programs on reducing CVD was less clear. However, some epidemiological studies suggest that there may be a relationship between glycemic levels and CVD. In the management of diabetes, health care providers usually assess glycemic control with fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and premeal glucose measurements, as well as by measuring Hb A 1c. Therapeutic goals for Hb A 1c and preprandial glucose levels have been established based on the results of controlled clinical trials. Unfortunately, the majority of patients with diabetes fail to achieve their glycemic goals. Elevated postprandial glucose (PPG) concentrations may contribute to suboptimal glycemic control. Postprandial hyperglycemia is also one of the earliest abnormalities of glucose homeostasis associated with type 2 diabetes and is markedly exaggerated in diabetic patients with fasting hyperglycemia. Several therapies targeted toward lowering PPG excursions are now available and have been shown to improve glycemic control as measured by Hb A 1c."

"text": "\"Golden State Warriors Ranking the Top 25 Players in Golden State Warriors' History Simon Cherin-Gordon August 1, 2013After a two-round postseason run, the emergence of a dangerous young core and a shrewdly executed offseason, the Golden State Warriors roster is home to some of the best talent in the NBA. Of course, the consensus response to this is \"\"yeah, it's about time.\"\" However, even considering the nearly-20-year period of sub-standardness that started in 1994 and ended a season ago, this response alone lacks perspective. The Warriors' franchise owns three NBA titles—only four teams have won more—and possesses a lengthy list of immensely talented NBA players. This is an attempt to celebrate that rich history. In order to come up with a list of the top 25 Warriors of all time, I will be using seasons spent with the Warriors, statistical averages over those seasons and intangibles contributing to team success during a player's tenure as the three primary criteria. The other criteria considered will be peak performance (individual seasons of greatness), isolated moments of greatness (such as a championship-winning shot) and the terms on which a player left the club (are they remembered fondly or poorly?). Philadelphia Warriors' players will be considered, along with current Warriors' players. As Golden State proceeds into what could be another era of greatness, this list will almost certainly change. All stats courtesy of basketball-reference.com Honorable Mentions1 of 26Sarunas Marciulionis- The greatest sixth man in Warriors' history, Marciulionis' per-36 averages of 21.3 points and 2.1 steals made him an elite reserve during his four years in Oakland."

Trade-only paint or the paints readily available in any good DIY store? Is there a difference between the two types, even paints by the same brand? Well, we think so and here’s our argument. As you may have guessed, even if you are a first time visitor to our DIY and decorating blog, we’ve been doing this a while now (! ), in fact I started out on the brushes when I was only 14 years of age, and now at the rip old age (!) of 43, I’ve been there and done that and used all sorts of paints. I’ve worked all over the world, and have painted houses and business of all shapes and sizes and with great results so I quickly learnt that to do a great decorating job, internally or externally, you need to start with the right paint, a good paint!Why are there two different sorts of paint? Are they not the same? It can be confusing for the novice DIY’er to find that there are two separate types of paint, and we are not talking about emulsion or gloss, we mean “ trade” paint and DIY paint."

Q: Hi Dr Dulux, I'm redecorating at the moment but I'm a bit bamboozled by all the different paint types and finishes. I know what Matt and Gloss are, but what's the difference between Satin, Eggshell, Silk and Sheen, and which is the best type to use? With thanks, Maggie, Cheshire. A: Choosing the right sheen level can completely transform the look of your walls, so make sure you consider different finishes to make the most of your space. Here's a little guide to help you: Matt emulsion is smooth, velvety and helps to hide imperfections on less-than-perfect walls. Flat matt emulsion is even more velvety and because matt surfaces don't reflect light, they make all colours look as similar as they can be in very different light conditions. Flat matt works wonders on deeper shades, too. Satin and Silk are 'mid-sheen' finishes, which means they look like a slightly polished surface and reflect a bit of light."

"text": "\"World's Top ten Paints Companies 2014 Annual Report（Published by WPCIA January 5, 2015 Washington） Due to the huge demand in the construction industry, the global paints and coatings market is still growing. In 2014, sales of global paints increased 3.9%, reached to 43.38 million tons, with total sales of 85 billion pounds, about $ 132.3 billion. Regarding paint sales in 2014, architectural coatings industry sales is 21.69 million tons, account for 50% of sales amount, annual sales is $63.504 billion, accounted for 48% of total sales; industrial coating is 12.58 million tons, accounts for 29% of total sales, annual sales is $33.075 billion accounted for 25% of total sales. There were 14 companies with coating sales in excess of $1 billion in 2014; three companies had sales over $10 billion. Paint and coatings market has been able to become more mature and grow rapidly, this mainly because of paint and coatings industry recovery from the 2008-2009 global recession, and a 5% average annual rate of growth is forecast through 201. This modest rate of advance is being propelled largely by the strong growth in the emerging economies of the Asia-Pacific region. Consumption in Asia-Pacific, particularly China and India, has surged and is up by about 50% in pounds from 2008. The paints and coatings industry can be categorized into three markets: architectural/decorative, industrial OEM and special purpose coatings. Architectural coating is the largest segment followed by industrial coatings and special purpose coatings. The industrial coatings segment was driven by rise in industrial production and automotive OEM sector."

Here at All Ball, we’ll be passing the time until the start of the season with a new series, the Fave Five. Each week will count down a list of the five best, or worst … somethings. We’ll try to get creative with it. Plus we’re taking requests! If you have a suggestion for a Fave Five post, give us a shout and you may see it appear in this space over the next several weeks. This week’s Fave Five takes a look at the most unlikely 50-point scorers since 1985, which is when Basketball Reference.com starts keeping game logs for each NBA player:5. Charles Smith, 52 points Clippers vs. Warriors, Dec. 1, 1990 Career scoring average: 14.4 ppg Charles Smith is probably best known for the basket he didn’t score, but he started out his NBA career as a fairly prolific shot-maker, averaging more than 20 ppg twice in his first three seasons. He settled into more of a contributor role after that, but not before he dropped 52 on the Denver Nuggets near the beginning of the 1990-91 season. Smith was 17-27 from the field and 18-21 from the line, and did not attempt a single 3-pointer (no surprise, he only made 18 in his entire career)."

A few terms can be used in more than one way, including PPG. This abbreviation can represent two different hockey statistics: points per game or power play goals. PPGWhen you see PPG on top of a column of statistics, the term may represent power-play goals. The numbers below PPG in the column represent the number of power-play goals a player or a team has scored. You may occasionally see the abbreviation in a box score, inside a pair of parentheses, to represent a single power-play goal, although “pp” is used more often in that situation.

"text": "Share It Home > Tips & Tricks > Painting Tips > Preparation - Concrete Floors Preparation - Concrete Floors New Concrete Before recommending a coating for a new concrete floor, it is important to know if curing membranes or concrete hardeners were used by the floor finisher. Paint does not stick well to these materials and failures usually result when they are painted over. If water beads on the surface of the floor, or acid* etching doesn't seem to work, it is likely that a membrane or hardener was used. Membranes can be removed with paint remover, but, hardeners must be mechanically removed (abrasive blasting by Blastrac™). Muriatic Acid*When mixing muriatic acid* with water, always add the acid* to water — never water to acid*. A lot of heat is given off when the two are mixed and this may cause foaming and/or splashing if done the wrong way around. The proper solution for acid* etching concrete is 10%. Since muriatic acid* is only 38% acid*, that means 1 part acid* to 3 parts water — not 1 part acid* to 9 parts water. Etching The best way to acid etch a floor with muriatic acid* is with a plastic watering can, depositing the acid* on the floor in two directions to assure coverage. Allow the acid* to work 30 minutes (or until the fizzing stops) and then flush with water to remove the salts formed by the acid* reacting with the concrete. Using a mop to apply the acid* does not give a consistent etch."

"text": "\"Custom Search The Who's Who of Card Gradingby Henry Woodruff August 9, 2004In this day and age of sports card collecting, many businesses make their money from selling cards and memorabilia, while others make their profit from grading cards and authenticating memorabilia. Companies such as these, whose main goal is applying consistent grading to some of the most sought-after cards on the market and the authentication of autographs and collectibles, are some of the most respected and profitable companies in the industry, even competing with the major card manufacturers in terms of gross income. Companies such as Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA), Beckett Grading Services (BGS), Sportscard Guaranty Corporation (SGC) and Global Authentication Inc. (GAI) have come out as the leaders in this coveted service market. Let's take a closer look at each company. PSA is a division of Collectors Universe, a publicly traded company that is one of the few hobby companies listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market. As one of the most respected names in the business, PSA offers a 10-point grading scale from 1 (Poor to Fair) to 10 (Gem Mint) and has graded some of the most rare and valuable treasures in the hobby. Remember the 1909-11 T206 Honus Wagner that sold for $1.265 million? PSA graded that find an 8, which labeled it as a Near Mint-Mint (NM-MT) card. After leading the way in establishing card grading, PSA continues to come out with new innovations including the PSA Set Registry, which comprises a list of complete or nearly complete sets of players or years of cards graded by PSA for each customer. Some of the nicest sets that have ever been sold have been part of the Set Registry."

"text": "Men's Health What does a rising PSA after prostate surgery mean? By Dr. David B. Samadi Published October 24, 2013 Fox News Facebook Twitter livefyre Email PSA (prostate specific antigen) blood tests are familiar routine for men over the age of 40. The test is typically used as a screening tool for prostate cancer, and has helped countless men detect and treat their prostate cancer early. When treated early, the cure rate for prostate cancer is upwards of 95 percent. The purpose of this article, however, is not to discuss routine PSA screenings and early treatment, but what happens after preliminary treatment and the removal of the prostate. How important is a PSA test after prostate surgery? The answer is that PSA tests post-surgery are very important. ADVERTISEMENTObtaining your PSA level after surgery is a major milestone in prostate cancer treatment. The expected result after a prostatectomy is an undetectable PSA or level of zero. In some men, however, a PSA level above zero presents itself and this could mean a number of things, among them a return of their cancer."

"text": "Elvis Autographs : Real or Fake: Authenticating Elvis Presley Autographs By: Elvis Australia Source: www.elvis.com.au May 20, 2010 Elvis Articles The most common counterfeit Elvis Presley item that is offered for sale is his autograph. Elvis is difficult because there are so many variations in the way his name was signed. Today it is the source of the biggest rip-offs in the Elvis world. So how do you tell real from fake? It could be said that you can't, not 100%. Usually if it looks real, it comes down to the trust placed in the person who it was signed for and an authentication letter from them. Obviously someone famous and well connected to Elvis has a much higher probability of truth, the 'genuine article'. They can provide an authentication letter, but this is only credible if provided directly to you by the trusted person signing the letter!The problem is that is it 'looks real' it means very little. Over the years Elvis' secretaries and staff became very adapt at 'signing Elvis' autograph' and this is one big reason also why it is so difficult to say what is real. So an authentic document like a drivers licence, contract, employee record (as below) give the buyer the knowledge that it is a genuine signature."

"text": "Dr. David Samadi, Contributor Chairman of Urology, Chief of Robotic Surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital, Professor of Urology at Hofstra School of Medicine Does A High PSA Level Mean I Have Prostate Cancer?02/22/2017 09:28 am ET Updated Mar 06, 2017A man goes to the doctor for his regular checkup. Everything comes back fine except for one thing – he is told his prostate specific antigen (PSA) level is elevated. Does this automatically mean he has prostate cancer? The simple answer to this is no. An elevated PSA number does not always indicate a man has prostate cancer. The PSA test is a blood test used to measure a substance in the blood called prostate specific antigen. It is often the first step in screening for prostate cancer along with the second screening test which is a digital rectal exam (DRE). Just like a woman may discover a lump in her breast, does not always signify it is breast cancer as lumps in the breast can be benign or noncancerous. The same thing is true of an elevated PSA. A man’s PSA level can vary depending on many factors which include his age, race, and family history of prostate diseases such as prostatitis."

To keep this from becoming the \"\"Top Peyton Manning Rookie Cards of the 1990s,\"\" only one rookie card per player is included. Also, only the base rookies are featured, so that means no parallels.

"text": "\"Should I have my Vintage Baseball Cards Professionally Graded? Some people think getting a card graded increases its value. The truth is that some cards sell for less after paying to have them graded. Some people - who are looking to sell their collections - have been told that \"\"baseball cards are worth more when they are graded\"\". The professional card grading companies such as PSA, SCG & Beckett love to make this claim, as it is a justification for charging $5 to $15 to grade a common card! The real cost to have a card graded is usually $14 to $17 per card when you consider the overpriced shipping and insurance charges. As the value of the card goes up, so do the charges. It is quite common to pay $40 to $300 (plus shipping, handling, and insurance) to have a Mickey Mantle baseball card (or another high dollar card) graded. The truth is that some cards actually sell for less on the market after the owner has paid to have them graded! While some cards are worth more after they have been professionally graded, I have found that most cards gain very little value when professionally graded and rarely gain enough value to cover the additional incurred fees."

Jennifer Jason Leigh stars as Kristen Cates, a rookie police officer recruited to partner with Jim Raynor (Jason Patric), an undercover Texas cop trying to infiltrate the criminal ring of major drug dealer Will Gaines (Gregg Allman) in the 1970s. What Kristen isn't told is that, as part of his deep cover masquerade, Jim must take drugs in order to be convincing and, unsurprisingly, has become an addict. Although this dangerous practice is not acceptable police procedure, Jim and Kristen's zealous superiors Larry Dodd (Sam Elliott) and Donald Nettle (Tony Frank) are obsessed with taking Gaines down because he has corrupted the daughter of a prominent local citizen. Jim and Kristen, who fall in love and move in together, befriend a petty car thief, Walker (Max Perlich), who has ties to Gaines. Since they both become drug addicts, Jim and Kristen's case makes little progress, until they clean up and convince Walker to turn on Gaines. Their investigation becomes tainted, however, when they are pressured from above to manufacture false evidence against their target.

Patrice Lumumba was the first prime minister of the independent country. [ 1] Even before the independence of the Congo, the U.

[ 2] The CIA was also notably involved in a campaign against Lumumba's successor, which led to his eventual imprisonment and long exile from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

"text": "\"news What Gal Gadot Didn't Want Her Wonder Woman To Be By Adam Holmes2 years ago Approximately a year and a half ago DC Comics and Warner Bros. announced that Fast & Furious star Gal Gadot will play Wonder Woman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Despite not being one of the eponymous heroes, the Amazonian is set to have a key role not just in that film, but the overall DC Extended Universe. Playing arguably the world’s most famous superheroine is a tremendous opportunity for any actress, but it’s an especially big deal for Gadot given that the character matches key criteria the actress looks for in a role. Gadot told Interview Magazine that when she started out as an actress in Los Angeles, she originally told writers and directors that she had an open mind for roles, but eventually changed her stance and made it clear she wanted to be \"\"able to show the stronger side of women.\"\" As Gadot put it: I didn’t want to do the obvious role that you see in Hollywood most of the time, which is the heartbroken girl who’s waiting to be rescued by the guy, blah, blah, blah. Not long after, Gadot was cast as Wonder Woman for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, a character who is by no means a damsel in distress. This is one female hero that doesn’t need a male superhero rescuing her…well, unless her Amazon powers have somehow been absorbed by an adversary and she needs to be moved out of the way before being incinerated. Other than that, beware of her fury. As for her role in this DC cinematic world, director Zack Snyder described Wonder Woman as the \"\"gateway drug\"\" to the Justice League, who will band together for the first time in theaters in late 2017. However, beyond that details have been scarce about her latest live-action iteration."

By entertainment standards, the roast -- a concept originated by the Friar's Club fraternity way back in 1907 -- is an absolute dinosaur. But it's like a T. rex that assaults you with politically incorrect character assassination and ridiculous celebrity humiliation instead of killer jaws and tiny arms -- old as it is, the roast walks the razor's edge of \"\"too funny\"\" and \"\"too far.\"\" Here are five times the comics got that balance exactly right.1.

In this week's Correspondent, David Akerman investigates the brutal murder of Congo's charismatic first prime minister 40 years ago. On 17th January 1961 Patrice Lumumba, first and only elected Prime Minister of Congo, was murdered. The circumstances of his death remained a mystery, the identity of his killers unknown. Now, forty years later, fresh scrutiny of documents held in government vaults and the testimony of those who were there at the time reveal a story of international intrigue and betrayal. Lumumba's murder provoked world outrage In 1956 Lumumba was a post office clerk; four years later he would be prime minister. In between he had been an \"\"evolue\"\" - one of Congo's tiny black middle class, a beer salesman and a prisoner, twice - once for embezzlement, though he claimed his motivation was political, and once for his political activities and inciting unrest. Perhaps it was prison that radicalized him. By 1958 he had co-founded a political party, the National Congolese Movement, the MNC. \"\" Lumumba was the only Congolese leader who rose above ethnic difficulties and tribal preoccupations that killed all the other parties\"\"Jean Van Lierde According to Jean Van Lierde, then a young Belgian radical who had befriended Lumumba, the MNC was distinctively pan-Africanist. \"\""

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The study randomly assigned 67 patients with type 1 diabetes to receive 24-month benfotiamine (300 mg/day) or placebo supplementation. Peripheral nerve function and levels of soluble inflammatory variables were assessed at baseline and at 24 months. RESULTS Fifty-nine patients completed the study. Marked increases in whole-blood concentrations of thiamine and thiamine diphosphate were found in the benfotiamine group (both P < 0.001 vs. placebo). However, no significant differences in changes in peripheral nerve function or soluble inflammatory biomarkers were observed between the groups. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that high-dose benfotiamine (300 mg/day) supplementation over 24 months has no significant effects upon peripheral nerve function or soluble markers of inflammation in patients with type 1 diabetes. Benfotiamine, a synthetic thiamine monophosphate analog with improved bioavailability compared with thiamine ( 1 ), has been shown to prevent the development of microvascular complications in rats without changes in glycemic control ( 2 )."

General questions from a beginner who want to study in USA are – How much do I need to spend to study Masters in USA? What is the living cost in USA for doing MS or Phd? This article will explain the expenditure for education in US Universities. We can separate in MS in US cost into two parts. 1) Cost of Tuition and Fee 2) Living Expenses/Room and Board Cost of MS in US (Masters in USA)Tuition/Fee Cost for Masters in usa First let me start with the way how American Universities will charge the student for the education. School’s tuition depends on the number of credit hours you take in a semester. Usually, one course is considered as 3 credit hours (In most of the univs). For example if you attend 3 courses in one semester, it is equivalent to 9 credit hours. Thus you have to pay tuition for the 9 credit hours in the first semester."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search\"\"Postnominal\"\" redirects here. For adjectives that follow their noun, see Postnominal adjective. Post-nominal letters, also called post-nominal initials, post-nominal titles or designatory letters, are letters placed after a person's name to indicate that that individual holds a position, academic degree, accreditation, office, military decoration, or honour, or is a member of a religious institute or fraternity. An individual may use several different sets of post-nominal letters, but in some contexts it may be customary to limit the number of sets to one or just a few. The order in which post-nominals are listed after a name is based on rules of precedence and what is appropriate for a given situation. Post-nominal letters are one of the main types of name suffix. In contrast, pre-nominal letters precede the name rather than following it.

"title": "https://www.prospects.ac.uk/postgraduate-study/masters-degrees/what-is-a-masters-degree\nWhat is a Masters degree?",
"text": "A Masters degree is the most commonly taken postgraduate qualification. It typically lasts for between one and four years, depending on the mode of study The qualification is at level 7 on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) - above Bachelors but below Doctoral - and is awarded to students who show a high level of expertise in their field. Study is intense and typically involves writing a thesis. Masters degrees shouldn't be confused with the Scottish Master of Arts (MA), which is an undergraduate degree awarded by certain universities. While having a Masters degree can greatly improve your career prospects, the high costs and demands mean that this method of postgraduate study isn't for everyone. How long is a Masters degree in the UK? Full-time Masters degrees usually involve one or two years of study, while part-time programmes last between two and four years. Courses normally begin in September or October, though some start in January or February. Related case studies Jakob Glibstrup MSc African Studies with Health graduate Clare Sawyer MSc Demography and Health student Mohamed Benhmid MSc Business and Management student What's the difference between undergraduate and postgraduate study? Compared to undergraduate degrees, Masters degrees are usually:focused on one particular area of a wider subject, giving students a greater amount of specialist knowledge;more flexible in terms of modules and study options;more intense, advanced and faster-paced;smaller in terms of class size;cheaper (but more expensive than postgraduate certificates, postgraduate diplomas and Ph Ds )."

I am currently a candidate for MSc have worked in industry for 3 years and now for the government for another 3. First of all, try to get an internship as soon as possible so you can get some experience which will help you determine what you like (it'll also help you get a job after you graduate). Maybe you'll decide that you'd like to go straight in to a Masters degree based on what you see in industry. Generally, an advanced degree (MS/MSc/MEng) will give you the option to work on more exciting projects in industry and prepare you for a leadership position in engineering. In my experience, engineering companies are often willing to pay for a higher degree. It is a worthwhile investment for most, but not all, companies. A Ph D is much more specialized. I would advise not to go straight in to a Ph D unless you truely LOVE engineering and are doing it for the interest and passion in the subject."

Protein wears out at a slow but steady rate and must be replaced, and the source of those replacement proteins is our food. After being digested, proteins give us a new supply of amino acids from which the body continuously rebuilds itself. How Much Protein Do We Need?

Due to the complexity of human behavior when it comes to politics, it will be a long time before it can be anything else. The object of political science courses is to groom students for careers in politics, or to give them an awareness of the political process that might be useful in some other career. Politics is complicated, both in terms of the rules and the strategies to be used. The field as a discipline is relatively recent, with the name popping up in America immediately after the Civil War.

It is mainly associated with retroviruses. However, non-retroviruses also use RT (for example, the hepatitis B virus, a member of the Hepadnaviridae, which are ds DNA-RT viruses, while retroviruses are ss RNA viruses). RT inhibitors are widely used as antiretroviral drugs. RT activities are also associated with the replication of chromosome ends ( telomerase) and some mobile genetic elements ( retrotransposons ). Retroviral RT has three sequential biochemical activities: (a) RNA-dependent DNA polymerase activity, (b) ribonuclease H, and (c) DNA-dependent DNA polymerase activity. These activities are used by the retrovirus to convert single-stranded genomic RNA into double-stranded c DNA which can integrate into the host genome, potentially generating a long-term infection that can be very difficult to eradicate. The same sequence of reactions is widely used in the laboratory to convert RNA to DNA for use in molecular cloning, RNA sequencing, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), or genome analysis. Well studied reverse transcriptases include: HIV-1 reverse transcriptase from human immunodeficiency virus type 1 ( PDB: 1HMV ) has two subunits, which have respective molecular weights of 66 and 51 k Da.

Viral Genetics Introduction to Viruses: A virus is a biological agent that reproduces inside the cells of living hosts. When infected by a virus, a host cell is forced to produce many thousands of identical copies of the original virus, at an extraordinary rate. Unlike most living things, viruses do not have cells that divide; new viruses are assembled in the infected host cell. Over 2,000 species of viruses have been discovered. Notable human diseases caused by viruses include SARS, influenza and hepatitis C A virus consists of two or three parts: all viruses have genes made from either DNA or RNA, long molecules that carry the genetic information; all have a protein coat that protects these genes; and some have an envelope of fat that surrounds them when they are not within a cell. Viruses vary in shape from the simple helical and icosahedral to more complex structures. Viruses are about 100 times smaller than bacteria, and it would take 30,000 to 750,000 of them, side by side, to stretch to 1 centimeter Life-cycle of Viruses: When a virus infects a cell, the virus forces it to make thousands more viruses. It does this by making the cell copy the virus's DNA or RNA, making viral proteins, which all assemble to form new virus particles."

Gaspar Livia Melo Villar34.56 Fundação Oswaldo Cruz Abstract Hepatitis A virus (HAV) is currently recognized as an important human food borne pathogen, and it is one of the most resistant enteric RNA viruses, is highly infectious, and may lead to widespread outbreaks. The aim of this study was to optimize the methods to detect HAV from artificially contaminated food. To this end, strawberry and lettuce were experimentally contaminated with HAV suspension containing 6×106 copies/ml. After contamination, HAV persistence and washing procedure were evaluated at 0, 1, 3, 7, and 9days of storage. Five elution buffers (PBS (p H 7.4)/0.1% Tween80; 50m M glycine/3% (wt/vol) beef extract (p H 9.5); PBS (p H 7, 4); 25m M glycine/0.1 Tween80; and 1M sodium bicarbonate) were used to elute the virus, and qualitative and quantitative PCR were used for HAV detection. HAV was detected by qualitative and quantitative PCR using any of the five elution buffers, but PBS was the most effective. Even after washing, HAV was detected up to 9days after contamination by quantitative PCR. Quantitative PCR was more sensitive than qualitative PCR since samples containing viral load lower than 1.4×103copies/ml could not be detected by qualitative PCR. Quantitative PCR can be used for rapid detection of food borne viruses and will help in the monitoring and control of food borne disease.

Real-time PCR and quantitative PCR (q PCR)Real-Time PCR refers to the fact that measurements are made during the amplification as opposed to at the end of PCR. q PCR introduces the idea that the data provides quantification of the target. This is where opinions diverge. Some think that you never really know what you have in a tube (or whether it is available for amplification) and at best relative “quantification” is possible, while others believe true quantification is possible. That said, the terms are often used interchangeably. Quantitative real-time PCR is often abbreviated as q PCR."

The m RNA in prokaryotes is coupled with several ribosomes which are responsible for translating proteins. In eukaryotes, m RNA that is made from DNA is immature, and is called pre-m RNA.

Here, we report the use of highly defective herpes simplex virus (HSV) vectors as suitable gene transfer agents for adipose cells in culture and fat tissue in animals. Using an in vitro model of human adipose differentiation, we first demonstrated that mature adipocytes and their precursor cells express the two principal HSV viral entry receptors Hve A and Hve C (nectin-1) and are efficiently transduced at a low multiplicity of infection by HSV-lac Z reporter gene and glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) gene vectors. Extended expression of β-galactosidase and secretion of GDNF occurred in transduced fat tissue explants from rabbits. In vivo gene transfer to rabbit subcutaneous adipose tissue resulted in local GDNF expression for at least 2 months. These experiments establish the efficient transduction of adipose cells by HSV vectors and suggest that fat tissue may represent a useful site for HSV-mediated gene delivery with potential for therapeutic applications. Introduction Adipose tissue is the largest energy reservoir of the human body ensuring homeostasis either by storing free fatty acids in the form of triglycerides or by hydrolysis of these stored products on demand. In addition, numerous adipokines are secreted from fat cells into the bloodstream and these bioactive molecules influence a wide range of metabolic functions such as energy balance, glucose oxidation, insulin sensitivity, host defense and reproduction. 1 Adipose tissue is mainly composed of terminally differentiated adipocytes filled with lipid droplets. These mature cells arise from preadipocytes, a fibroblast-like precursor cell present in the stromal-vascular fraction of the tissue."

Top Abstract Encapsidation of cellular- or plasmid-derived DNA sequences during recombinant adeno-associated virus (r AAV) production has been well documented. However, most of the published data were generated from r AAV vectors manufactured by the plasmid transient transfection method. We previously reported a novel, scalable method for r AAV manufacturing based on a recombinant herpes simplex virus (r HSV) complementation system. In this report, we evaluated clearance of DNA impurities during r AAV purification, by determining the quantity of residual herpes simplex virus and cellular DNA at each process step. A single Benzonase treatment during the upstream process effectively reduced unprotected HSV and cellular DNA to <300 bp fragments, and subsequent chromatography steps completely removed these small DNA fragments. Further analysis showed that trace amounts of residual, DNase-resistant HSV and cellular DNA were present at static concentrations during subsequent purification steps, and the residual HSV DNA sequences were single stranded, ranging from 0.8 to 4.2 kb. After transduction of human embryonic kidney 293 cells with purified r AAV, the residual HSV DNA fragments were neither transcribed nor translated into HSV proteins. In summary, this manufacturing process for r AAV production was effective in removing DNA and protein contaminants and achieving a highly purified product, suitable for human clinical application."

Developed in 1983 by Kary Mullis, [1] [2] who was an employee of the Cetus Corporation, and also the winner of Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1993, it is an easy, cheap, and reliable way to repeatedly replicate a focused segment of DNA, a concept which is applicable to numerous fields in modern biology and related sciences. [ 3] PCR is probably the most widely used technique in molecular biology. This technique is used in biomedical research, criminal forensics, and molecular archaeology. [ 4]PCR is now a common and often indispensable technique used in clinical and research laboratories for a broad variety of applications. [ 5] [6] These include DNA cloning for sequencing, gene cloning and manipulation, gene mutagenesis; construction of DNA-based phylogenies, or functional analysis of genes; diagnosis and monitoring of hereditary diseases; amplification of ancient DNA; [7] analysis of genetic fingerprints for DNA profiling (for example, in forensic science and parentage testing ); and detection of pathogens in nucleic acid tests for the diagnosis of infectious diseases. In 1993, Mullis was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry along with Michael Smith for his work on PCR.

Similar to the classification systems used for cellular organisms, virus classification is the subject of ongoing debate and proposals. This is mainly due to the pseudo-living nature of viruses, which is to say they are non-living particles with some chemical characteristics similar to those of life, or non-cellular life. As such, they do not fit neatly into the established biological classification system in place for cellular organisms. Viruses are mainly classified by phenotypic characteristics, such as morphology, nucleic acid type, mode of replication, host organisms, and the type of disease they cause. Currently, two main schemes are used for the classification of viruses: the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) system and Baltimore classification system, which places viruses into one of seven groups. Accompanying this broad method of classification are specific naming conventions and further classification guidelines set out by the ICTV. A catalogue of all the world's viruses has been proposed; some related preliminary efforts have been accomplished.

[ 4]It has also been suggested that it may increase the risk of pancreatic cancer. [ 3]Roles in disease [ edit]Viral infection by hepatitis B virus (HBV) causes many hepatocyte changes due to direct action of a protein coded for by the virus, HBx, and to indirect changes due to a large increase in intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) after infection. HBx appears to dysregulate a number of cellular pathways. HBx causes dysregulation in part by binding to genomic DNA, changing expression patterns of mi RNAs, affecting histone methyltransferases, binding to SIRT1 protein to activate transcription, and cooperating with histone methylases and demethylases to change cell expression patterns. [ 5] HBx is partly responsible for the approximate 10,000-fold increase in intracellular ROS upon chronic HBV infection. [ 6] Increased ROS can be caused, in part, by localization of HBx to the mitochondria where HBx decreases the mitochondrial membrane potential. [ 7] In addition, another HBV protein, HBs Ag, also increases ROS through interactions with the endoplasmic reticulum. [ 7]The increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) after HBV infection causes inflammation, which leads to a further increase in ROS. ["

The abundant mt DNA-binding protein TFAM (transcription factor A, mitochondrial) regulates nucleoid architecture, abundance and segregation 2. Complete mt DNA depletion profoundly impairs oxidative phosphorylation, triggering calcium-dependent stress signalling and adaptive metabolic responses 3. However, the cellular responses to mt DNA instability, a physiologically relevant stress observed in many human diseases and ageing, remain poorly defined 4. Here we show that moderate mt DNA stress elicited by TFAM deficiency engages cytosolic antiviral signalling to enhance the expression of a subset of interferon-stimulated genes. Mechanistically, we find that aberrant mt DNA packaging promotes escape of mt DNA into the cytosol, where it engages the DNA sensor c GAS (also known as MB21D1) and promotes STING (also known as TMEM173)–IRF3-dependent signalling to elevate interferon-stimulated gene expression, potentiate type I interferon responses and confer broad viral resistance. Furthermore, we demonstrate that herpesviruses induce mt DNA stress, which enhances antiviral signalling and type I interferon responses during infection. Our results further demonstrate that mitochondria are central participants in innate immunity, identify mt DNA stress as a cell-intrinsic trigger of antiviral signalling and suggest that cellular monitoring of mt DNA homeostasis cooperates with canonical virus sensing mechanisms to fully engage antiviral innate immunity. Main To explore the cellular responses to mt DNA stress in the absence of oxidative phosphorylation deficiency, we employed a TFAM heterozygous knockout ( Tfam +/−) mouse model. Cells and tissues from these animals exhibit modest or no significant differences in mt DNA-encoded transcripts and oxygen consumption rates, despite an approximately 50% depletion of mt DNA ( Extended Data Fig."

Thus, viral nucleic acids can be DNA or RNA, double-stranded or single-stranded, monopartite or multipartite, linear or circular, as short as 2 kb or up to 2500 kb long. The goal of a virus is to replicate itself. To do so, viruses have evolved various strategies to replicate their genomes and produce the structural and catalytic proteins needed for the formation of new viruses. This article is a brief introduction to viral genomes and viral replication.

ASM .orgkeywords GOAdvanced »User Name Password Sign In Application of PCR-Based Methods To Assess the Infectivity of Enteric Viruses in Environmental Samples ▿Roberto A. Rodríguez †, Ian L. Pepper and Charles P. Gerba *+ Author Affiliations Department of Soil, Water and Environmental Science, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona The advent of the PCR has greatly enhanced our ability to detect human enteric viral pathogens in the environment, including water, municipal wastes, sewage, food, air, and fomites ( 2, 3, 59, 69, 79 ). This is especially true for those viruses which do not grow in cell culture. Despite great sensitivity, PCR methods do have some serious limitations for environmental viral analysis, including small sample volumes, the presence of PCR-inhibitory substances, and an inability to differentiate between infective and noninfective viruses ( 66 ). The ability of PCR to assess infectivity would greatly enhance its application for the monitoring of water and food quality and for treatment processes (e.g., disinfection). This review focuses on approaches to overcome these limitations. Next Section DETERMINATION OF VIRAL INFECTIVITYViral infectivity can be described as the capacity of viruses to enter the host cell and use cell resources to ultimately produce infectious viral particles (virions) ( 10 ). The virion of most enteric viruses is composed of two major components, the capsid and the genome ( 83 ). The protein capsid is involved in the interaction of the virus with the host cell surface and contains antigens specific to cell receptors used to gain entry into the cell. The capsid also has the function of protecting the viral genome from degradation by nucleases and abiotic stresses, such as humidity, p H, UV radiation, and temperature."

Litvak Current as of 1 May 2014Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-378630-2.00258-9 Get rights and content Abstract Reverse transcriptase (RT), also known as RNA-dependent DNA polymerase, is a DNA polymerase enzyme that transcribes single-stranded RNA into DNA. This enzyme is able to synthesize a double helix DNA once the RNA has been reverse transcribed in a first step into a single-strand DNA. RNA viruses, such as retroviruses, use the enzyme to reverse-transcribe their RNA genomes into DNA, which is then integrated into the host genome and replicated along with it. During the replication of some DNA viruses, such as the hepadnaviruses or pararetroviruses, also carrying a RT, the DNA genome is transcribed to RNA that serves as a template to make new viral DNA strands. Although RT was discovered in retroviruses and thought to be a paradigm of these infectious agents, it is currently known that RT is found in many other eukaryotic and prokaryotic systems like telomerase, retrotransposons, retrons, and are found abundantly in the genomes of plants and animals. Retroviral RT has a domain carrying a ribonuclease H (RNase H) activity that is crucial to their replication. RNase H is an endonuclease able to degrade the RNA moiety of DNA–RNA hybrids family. Another viral-encoded enzyme, integrase, is found either in the mature dimeric form of RT or as a free enzyme. Integrase is vital for the insertion of the double-stranded DNA synthesized by RT in the genome of the host-infected cell. Inhibitors of the DNA polymerase activity of retroviral RT are widely used in the treatment of pathologies produced by retroviruses like in the case of acquired immune deficiency syndrome."

Overview [ edit]Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a very effective technique of obtaining multiple identical copies of a certain DNA strand (amplifying DNA). PCR can be used for amplifying DNA, mutation DNA, delete DNA, and introduce restriction endonuclease site. PCR is performed by repeating a cycle that consists of several steps. This process is performed after regions of target DNA, or the sequence (s) of DNA which are to be amplified (Target Sequence), have been specified. Target Sequence, as its name implies, is a specific part of DNA that is needed for further study. In short, one cycle of PCR consists of these steps: Preparation before repetition of PCR cycle: Addition of PCR components to solution containing DNA to be amplified This step is only performed before the first PCR cycle."

It was created by French pharmaceutical giant Rhone Poulenc Rorer, now known as Sanofi. There has been some evidence to show that higher doses might produce more significant improvements in ALS patients but at almost £6 (US$10) per tablet it is at risk of being prohibitively expensive given the modest benefit to patients. One study in the Netherlands found that riluzole is metabolized differently by males and females, and its levels in plasma are decreased in patients who smoke cigarettes or take omeprazole.

Several genes associated with ALS have been identified or at least mapped to a specific region of a chromosome. The other 90 to 95 percent of ALS is sporadic, meaning it occurs without a family history (in other words, \"\"sporadically\"\"). There appear to be genetic variations that influence one's susceptibility to sporadic ALS, even if they don't actually cause the disease by themselves. Below you will find an examination of possible causes of both sporadic and familial ALS currently under investigation by MDA researchers. Possible causes of sporadic ALSOxidative stress Oxidative stress is a phenomenon that occurs when there's an imbalance between the production of oxygen-containing molecules that carry an electrical charge, which can be toxic, and a biological system's ability to readily detoxify them.

Credit: i Design, Shutterstock Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease or motor neuron disease, is a progressive neurological disease that causes the neurons that control voluntary muscles (motor neurons) to degenerate, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The term \"\"Lou Gehrig's disease\"\" is named for the famed American baseball player who developed ALS in 1939 at age 36. In the United States, as many as 20,000 to 30,000 people have the disease, and about 5,000 people are diagnosed with it each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). ALS commonly strikes people 40 to 60 years old. It affects people of all races and ethnicities. The disease is slightly more common in men than in women, but the difference is decreasing. Treatments for the disease are limited, but promising research is ongoing. ALS symptoms The first symptoms usually include weakness or tight and stiff muscles (spasticity) in a particular area, said Dr. Jaydeep Bhatt, a neurologist NYU Langone Medical Center in New York City. Other symptoms include slurred and nasal speech, and difficulty chewing or swallowing."

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegeneration with predilection for the corticomotoneurons in the motor cortex and the bulbar and spinal motor neurons. The prevalence of ALS in British Columbia is 7 per 100 000 population. Site of disease onset and rate of progression are widely variable and probably determined by the interplay of several or many genes. There is a male predominance up to about age 70 years, when disease incidence becomes equal in both sexes. Disease onset likely precedes clinical symptoms by several years, and disease-specific predictive markers are badly needed. Diagnosis is clinically dependent, but clinical neurophysiology and anatomical and spectroscopic brain imaging are proving useful surrogate markers of the disease and its progression. Treatments are now available that slow progression in some patients."

ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a chronic, progressive disease. ALS greatly affects the brain and central nervous system. In a healthy body, motor neurons in the brain send signals throughout the body, telling muscles and body systems how to work. ALS slowly destroys those neurons, preventing them from working correctly. Eventually, ALS destroys the neurons completely. When this happens, the brain can no longer give commands to the body, and individuals with late-stage ALS become paralyzed."

On Wednesdays, it's Dr. Otis Brawley, Chief Medical Officer of the American Cancer Society. Question asked by Sandee Hengst of Las Vegas, Nevada: Is there a cure or treatment for ALS? Expert answer: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, is a progressive, neurodegenerative disorder that causes muscle weakness. It is incurable and eventually fatal. It occurs at a very low incidence, about one to three cases per 100,000 people. While it is seen among young adults, it is most common among people in their 60s and 70s. Ten percent of cases that occur are familial or inherited. The cause is unknown in 90 percent."

S. residents now speak a language other than English at home, according to a report being released Tuesday by the Center for Immigration Studies that raises questions about the country’s ability to absorb the influx of immigrants. Although many of those are bilingual, more than 25 million residents say they speak English at levels they would rate as less than “very well,” according to the report, which is based on the latest Census Bureau figures. “The number of people who don’t speak English as their primary language has exploded, and it’s going to remain high for a long time,” said Steven A. Camarota, the lead demographer for the report. “ That has implications for schools and politics. In some cases, the number of people speaking a foreign language is enormous now. ”Indeed, more than 39 million residents spoke Spanish at home last year — a jump of more than 11 million compared with 14 years earlier. Chinese was the second most prominent language at home, with 3.1 million residents speaking it — up from 2 million in 2000. Just as startling is the growth of foreign languages among school-age children. In California, 43.9 percent of children eligible for primary or secondary school speak something other than English at home, Mr. Camarota concluded."

Some of these health benefits are backed by studies, while some still need to be researched. But one needs to be aware of the side effects as well. Green tea is mostly safe for adults when consumed in moderation. Green tea extract is also considered to be generally safe for most people when taken orally or applied topically on the skin for a short period of time.

So during the CO2 fixation, when the photosynthetic plants produce 3-phosphoglyceric acid (PGA) or 3- carbon acid as the first product is called C3 pathway. But when the photosynthetic plant, prior going to the C3 pathway, produces oxaloacetic acid (OAA) or 4 -carbon compound as their first stable product is called as C4 or Hatch and Slack pathway. But when the plants absorb the energy of the sunlight at the day time and use this energy for the assimilation or fixing the carbon dioxide at night time is called as crassulacean acid metabolism or CAM. These procedures are followed by plants, certain species of bacteria and algae for the production of energy, independent of their habitat. The synthesis of energy, using carbon dioxide and water as the primary source to gain nutrients from air and water is termed as photosynthesis. This is the prime process for the living being which produces food on their own In this content, we will be considering the essential difference between the three types of pathways followed by plants and few microorganisms and a small description about them.

"text": "\"Introduction The functioning of the Earth's ecosystem is dependent upon a continuous input of light energy in the form of photons coming from the sun. The process by which light energy is captured and incorporated into molecules that can be used by living organisms is called photosynthesis. It takes place in green plants, algae, and some kinds of bacteria. Organisms can be grouped into two major categories: autotrophs, which carry on photosynthesis and manufacture their own food, and heterotrophs, which do not perform photosynthesis themselves but must consume autotrophs or other organisms that ate autotrophs. In other words, photosynthetic organisms are at the base of the food chain, and with only a very few exceptions all organisms on Earth depend upon photosynthesis as the source of their food and energy. Although photosynthesis is a very complex process, it can be divided into two parts. In the first part, light energy is captured and used to make high energy chemical molecules. In the second part, those high energy molecules are used to convert atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2) into carbohydrates and other energy containing compounds. These then serve as food for the photosynthetic plant itself or for an animal that eats the plant. During this process, water molecules (H 2 O) are split apart and the oxygen from them is released into the atmosphere as oxygen gas (O 2 )."

"text": "\"PLANT ENERGY TRANSFORMATIONS 2Photosynthesis: When life originated on this planet some 3.8 billion years ago, the first life forms were single celled heterotrophs. They were depending upon both the organic and inorganic compounds available in ‘Mother Ocean’ fresh and sweet water. With time, ‘organic soup’ created in earlier years, almost exhausted by the fast growing and multiplying population of then existing organisms. There was an imminent danger for the survival of heterotrophs. At this juncture, new life forms arose and they had the unique potentiality to capture solar energy and use the same for the synthesis of simpler organic compounds where the solar energy is stored in the form of chemical bond energy. The origin of photosynthetic organisms saved the heterotrophic organisms by providing food materials to them. Photosynthesis also provided oxygen and food; the present oxygen level is due to photosynthesis. At the same time, they also provided an environment for the diversification and sustenance of organisms. It is these organisms that produced oil fossil “fuel reserves” found all over the world; thankless are those few on this planet who are exploiting the reserves and getting richer and richer.www. plantcell.org.uk In the light of knowledge gained in recent years, the process of photosynthesis is defined as “a series of processes in which green plants capture, convert and conserve solar electromagnetic energy in the form of chemical energy call them as chemical bonds in organic compounds."

The relevant line in the original poem stated, \"\"Fey withouten fait is febelore þen nouȝt, And ded as a dore-nayl.\"\" A more modern verse translation of Piers Plowman translates the relevant context of the phrase as follows: For gentle James judges in his book That faith without works is a feeble thing, Dead as a doornail unless deeds follow. The reference to \"\"gentle James\"\" is an allusion to the Bible verse, James 2:26: \"\"For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.\"\" The poem probably uses the simile \"\"dead as a doornail\"\" not only because it repeats the letter \"\"D\"\" to make the phrase more memorable, but also because the reference to nails alludes to both the crucifixion of Jesus and the traditional belief that Jesus was a carpenter.2.9k Views · View Upvoters Related Questions More Answers Below Where did the saying \"\"wet behind the ears come\"\" from?

The main difference can be seen in the terms. Light dependent need light to react, light independent do not. In the light reactions the photon of light hits the chlorophyll which excites an electron that goes into the electron transport chain. This electron comes from water being split into H+ ions and oxygent gas. A small amount of ATP is produced and NADPH is produced. In the dark reaction, called the Calvin cycle, the ATP and NADPH produced by the light reaction is used to combine RUBP with CO2 to make glucose.5 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

Its habitat also leans the borders of eastern Kazakhstan, China, North Korea and Hokkaidō in Japan. [ 2] Its range in the wild originally extended through European Russia to Poland and Scandinavia. [ 3] It has historically been hunted for its highly valued dark brown or black fur, which remains a luxury good to this day. While hunting of wild animals is still common in Russia, most fur in the market is now commercially farmed. [ citation needed]Contents1 Etymology2 Description3 Behaviour4 Reproduction5 Distribution6 History of fur use and status7 See also8 References9 External links Etymology [ edit]The name sable appears to be of Slavic origin and to have entered most Western European languages via the early medieval fur trade. [ 4] Thus the Russian соболь ( sobol) and Polish soból became the German Zobel, Dutch Sabel; the French zibeline, Spanish cibelina, cebellina, Finnish soopeli, Portuguese zibelina and Mediaeval Latin zibellina derive from the Italian form ( zibellino ). The English and Medieval Latin word sabellum comes from the Old French sable or saible. The term has become a generic description for some black-furred animal breeds, such as sable cats or rabbits, and for the colour black in heraldry."

For information on dwarf hamsters, please see the Dwarf Hamster Variety page. If you live in North America or are a member of an American forum, you may notice such terms as \"\"teddy bear hamster\"\", \"\"black bear hamster\"\", \"\"panda bear hamster\"\" and so on. These are NOT species of hamster but simply words used by pet shops in the USA (and possibly Canada) to describe the different colours, patterns and coat lengths of Syrian hamsters. Unfortunately, many people in these countries, including some breeders and shop owners, have come to believe that these are separate breeds of Syrian. This is a dangerous thing, as some owners have been informed that \"\"black bears\"\" will live together! This is not true; \"\"black bears\"\" are just Syrian hamsters with black fur. As a general rule, anything with the word \"\"bear\"\" in the title is refering to a particular colour Syrian. American pet shops also use words such as \"\"blueberry\"\" and \"\"blackberry\"\" to describe dwarf hamsters. Again, these can be confusing, but they usually refer to a particular colour of Campbells Russian dwarf."

Beaver: The beaver is one of the warmest furs you can buy. Its durability is astounding – it can last for decades. There are three main types of beaver garments: plucked, sheared, and natural. Plucked and sheared beaver reveal the thick underfur that is the source of warmth. It also provides a classy style, while natural fur tends to look more rugged and masculine.

There are many terms used to describe the different smoke, shaded and tipped cats and these are different depending on whether a cat is longhaired or shorthaired! Some terms are now only found in older books, so I've included the various alternative names. The first section explains the different patterns and a little of their history. The second section explains the genetics, including disproved theories you may come across elsewhere (even disproved theories come back to haunt breeders!). SOME BASICSFirst some very basic genetics! The difference between chinchilla, shaded silver and silver tabby are due to the underlying tabby pattern (ticked, mackerel/spotted or classic). Tabby patterns are cause by genes at two different places. The agouti gene, A, allows the hairs to be banded with alternate light and dark bands. The recessive form, non-agouti \"\"a\"\", means the hair is solid colour without lighter bands."

"text": "Types of Hairs & Bristle (Excerpts from ART HARDWARE: The Definitive Guide to Artists’ Materials, by Steven Saitzyk © 1987)Hairs, bristles, BRISTLES, and nylon filaments work as devices for holding and applying ink or paint because of capillary attraction-the natural attraction of a liquid for a solid and its tendency to flow toward it. When hairs, bristles, and nylon filaments are grouped together to form a brush and dipped into a liquid, the liquid will tend to be drawn up between the hairs and be held in place. When the tip of the brush is touched to an absorbent surface, the liquid will be transferred to it with the help of gravity. Thick paints rely more on pressure than on gravity to be transferred to an absorbent surface. There are two main characteristics that distinguish one hair from another, as well as hair from bristle and nylon filaments. The first and most important characteristic is the hair’s degree of absorbency. Hairs have scales, and the more scales, the greater the surface area to attract and hold liquids. This increased absorbency provides greater control in the application of inks or paints because they are held within the body of the brush, allowing for even flow off the tip of the brush. Brushes made of less absorbent hairs, or nonabsorbent synthetic filaments, accumulate liquids at the tip. Inks or paints tend to run quickly and often uncontrollably off the tips of such brushes during application."

Almost every modeller will very quickly build up a large collection of brushes in different shapes and sizes. Therefore, no modelling guide would be complete without a section about the care and use of paint brushes. Yet it is with some trepidation that I set about writing this tutorial. That is because this seems to be one of those subjects where there are many different opinions, so it is difficult to give advice with any authority. This article will attempt to give general advice about choosing and using paint brushes for modelling. However, it is recognised that everyone will have their own favourite type of brush and method of using it. Finding out your own preferences is part of the fun and challenge of modelling, so please take this tutorial as advice rather than gospel. If you find that you can produce great results using a toothbrush then good for you. What are paint brushes good for?"

"text": "Marbled Polecat ( Vormela peregusna)aka … Syrian marbled polecat; mottled polecat; tiger polecat; tiger stoat; tiger weasel; Pallung mush; sarmatier Etymology It appears that the name “ Vormela ” comes from “Würmlein”, an Early New High German word which means “little worm”. Peregusna is taken from the Ukrainian word “pereguznya”, which is for polecat. So, our marbled polecat should really be called “Little worm polecat”!Hmmmm – I must say that I personally feel “marbled polecat” is a far better description of our little friend. “ Little worm polecat” just doesn’t give it the gravitas the animal deserves Appearance The shape of the marbled polecat’s face is very similar to its cousin, the European polecat, but obviously its weird and wonderful markings are unique and it has long claws, which the European polecat doesn’t. You can see from this photo how the marble polecat’s face is similar to the European polecat, with its short muzzle and stocky appearance. The mottling on the back is reddish brown and buff yellow/white and the long hair of the tail is usually whitish with a dark tip. The fur underneath is dark brown or blackish while the facial mask is dark brown. Vormela has noticeable ears which look large, due to the white fur which grows around the top of the ears. The fur on its face is black and white, with a white band across its forehead to below its ears. Its limbs are short and its front paws are strong, which helps it to excavate deep and roomy burrows."

Acclimatization can occur in either of two ways: (1) By changing themetabolism of organisms. This type of change (modification) is not inherited and is governed by theresponse rate of the organism."

"text": "\"how watercolor brushes are made Some folks write with a stubby, chewed up wood pencil, and others write with a gold plated Swiss fountain pen. These don't have much effect on the writer's handwriting, but they do lend familiarity to the writing experience and a distinctive visual style to the script. In many respects, an artist's preferences in brushes are of the same kind. As a practical matter, many artists find that inexpensive brushes do the job just as well as expensive ones: the style and appearance of their paintings are much the same. An awareness of the brushes that are available, and the major differences among them, will help you find the tools that make you feel comfortably at your best, and lend those subtle touches of brushstroke and texture that make your work unique. I have not been able to find a reliable account of the invention and history of the brush as we use it today. The essential tool concept was probably adapted from twigs that were frayed by chewing at one end, so that they could hold ink or paint, as used in early painting or calligraphy. It seems that the modern brush — animal hair or bristle, or vegetable fiber, bound to the end of a wood handle — was independently devised in Egypt, perhaps as early as 4000 BCE, and in China, perhaps as early as 200 CE. The Chinese brush probably incorporated a quill ferrule around animal hair, making it the earliest tool similar to brushes used today. The first description of European artist's brushes and brush manufacture is probably that in Cennino Cennini's Il Libro dell' Arte (c.1390)."

Quick Links The Brindle Gene Variations in Striping Variations in Base Colour Silver Brindle Brindle and Long Fur Brindle Saddles and Tan Points Brindle Merle Liver and Dilute Brindles Missing Stripes Quick Summary Further Info and Links The Brindle Gene Brindle is one of the recessive genes on the K locus. There are three K locus genes - K (dominant black, sometimes written as K B ), k br (brindle) and k (non-solid black - allows A locus to be expressed). K is the top dominant and k is the bottom recessive. k br sits between the two. It is entirely dominated by K (so just one K allele will stop brindle from being expressed), but is dominant over k, so a brindle dog can have the genotype k br k br or k br k . A dog with one or two k br alleles will express whichever alleles it has on the A locus, but any and all phaeomelanin (red) in the coat will be brindled. This means that the extent of the brindling on the coat depends on the A locus. The following list shows how the different A locus genes affect the appearance of brindle. Brindle + A y A y (sable) - dog will be solid brindle (possibly with darker areas on the back and head where the tipping on the sable would be)Brindle + a ta t (tan points) - dog will be black (or liver/blue/isabella) with brindle points Brindle + a wa w (agouti/wolf grey) - effect on dog is unknown."

Burmese Blue and Sable adult American Burmese Origin Thai-Burma border, Thailand Breed standards CFA standard FIFe standard TICA standard AACE standard ACF standard CCA-AFC standard Domestic cat ( Felis catus)The Burmese ( Thai: ทองแดง or ศุภลักษณ์, RTGS : Thongdaeng or Supphalak, meaning copper colour) is a breed of domestic cat, originating in Thailand, believed to have its roots near the present Thai-Burma border and developed in the United States and Britain. Most modern Burmese are descendants of one female cat called Wong Mau, which was brought from Burma to America in 1930 and bred with American Siamese. From there, American and British breeders developed distinctly different Burmese breed standards, which is unusual among pedigreeddomestic cats. Most modern cat registries do not formally recognize the two as separate breeds, but those that do refer to the British type as the European Burmese. Originally, all Burmese cats were dark brown ( sable ), but are now available in a wide variety of colours; formal recognition of these also varies by standard. Both versions of the breed are known for their uniquely social and playful temperament and persistent vocalisation.

A pair of Siamese cats were on display that closely resembled modern American Burmese cats in build, thus probably similar to the modern Tonkinese breed. The first attempt to deliberately develop the Burmese in the late 19th century in Britain resulted in what were known as Chocolate Siamese rather than a breed in their own right; this view persisted for many years, encouraging crossbreeding between Burmese and Siamese in an attempt to more closely conform to the Siamese build."

A Papillon with dropped ears is called a Phalène (French for 'moth'). The small head is slightly rounded between the ears with a well-defined stop. The muzzle is somewhat short and thin, tapering to the nose. The dark, medium-sized, round eyes have thin, black rims, often extending at the junction of the eyelids towards the ears.

However, the pictures and information are provided entirely for educational purposes and I do not in any way condone the breeding of dogs deliberately for colour, or breeding for colours or patterns that are not on the breed standard . The primary concerns for any dog breeder must be health, temperament and conformation. Colour should only be a consideration where it is important for the breed standard. Special care must also be taken when breeding merles to avoid health problems, so merle is a colour best left to very experienced dog breeders. If you are considering breeding a merle dog then please make sure to read all of the information below first. The M locus is the home of the merle allele.

That’s about 200,000 years. In the late 20th century competition emerged from synthetic fibers made from fossil fuels, marketed under such exotic names as “synchilla” and “eco-fleece”. But with society’s growing understanding of our environment’s fragility, more people are again embracing natural fibers that are renewable and biodegradable. Thus the future of fur looks secure as a key component in dressing modern man and providing us with comfortable protection against the elements. Until the advent of animal agriculture 10,000 years ago, all fur came from the wild. But today, most comes from farms, with mink and fox accounting for about 80%."

Nowadays, it is well-established that the way we account for word meaning is bound to have a major impact in tipping the balance in favor or against a given picture of the fundamental properties of human language. This entry provides an overview of the way issues related to lexical meaning have been explored in analytic philosophy and a summary of relevant research on the subject in neighboring scientific domains. Though the main focus will be on philosophical problems, contributions from linguistics, psychology, neuroscience and artificial intelligence will also be considered, since research on word meaning is highly interdisciplinary.1.

A quick, sharp jerk means a greater acceleration and a greater acceleration means a greater force. And it is force that tears the paper towel or plastic bag. Ex 4.6 Before the time of Galileo and Newton, it was thought by many learned scholars that a stone dropped from the top of a tall mast of a moving ship would fall vertically and hit the deck behind the mast by a distance equal to how far the ship had moved forward while the stone was falling. In light of your understanding of Newton's Laws, what do you think about this? As we have seen on The Mechanical Video, and as I have tried to demonstrate in walking back and forth in front of the classroom while throwing a ball, the ball or stone should fall and hit the deck at the base of the mast.

"text": "\"MA, MBA, BS, MS, MSW, Ph D, Psy D: What Does it All Mean? By Mark Aspillera Tweet The benefits of college degrees, be it associate, B. A., M. A. or Ph. D level, have been touted and restated many times. Despite rising costs, the investment continues to be valuable one for a wide variety of people. That said, back it up a little bit: just what do all those different degree acronyms mean? Beyond that, what differentiates, say, a B. B. A. from a BSN? To help answer those questions we put together the following list of definitions for what each degree acronym stands for as well as explanations of the meanings behind all the different terminology. Associate Degrees An associate degree is typically completed in two years of full-time study, but may take longer for part-time students. These undergraduate programs can be found at community colleges, vocational schools, technical colleges, and some universities. In general, associate degrees fall into three different categories: Associate of Arts (A. A. ), Associate of Science (A. S.), or Associate of Applied Science (A. A. S.)."

"text": "Challenges to Metaphysical Realism First published Thu Jan 11, 2001; substantive revision Tue Jun 14, 2016According to metaphysical realism, the world is as it is independently of how humans or other inquiring agents take it to be. The objects the world contains, together with their properties and the relations they enter into, fix the world’s nature and these objects exist independently of our ability to discover they do. Unless this is so, metaphysical realists argue, none of our beliefs about our world could be objectively true since true beliefs tell us how things are and beliefs are objective when true or false independently of what anyone might think. Many philosophers believe metaphysical realism is just plain common sense. Others believe it to be a direct implication of modern science, which paints humans as fallible creatures adrift in an inhospitable world not of their making. Nonetheless, metaphysical realism is controversial. Besides the analytic question of what it means to assert that objects exist independently of the mind, metaphysical realism also raises epistemological problems: how can we obtain knowledge of a mind-independent world? There are also prior semantic problems, such as how links are set up between our beliefs and the mind-independent states of affairs they allegedly represent. This is the Representation Problem. Anti-realists deny the world is mind-independent."

Many people feel about graphs the same way they do about going to the dentist: a vague sense of anxiety and a strong desire for the experience to be over with as quickly as possible. But position graphs can be beautiful, and they are an efficient way of visually representing a vast amount of information about the motion of an object in a conveniently small space. What does the vertical axis represent on a position graph? The vertical axis represents the position of the object. For example, if you read the value of the graph below at a particular time you will get the position of the object in meters.

"text": "\"Epiphenomenalism First published Mon Jan 18, 1999; substantive revision Tue Feb 3, 2015Epiphenomenalism is the view that mental events are caused by physical events in the brain, but have no effects upon any physical events. Behavior is caused by muscles that contract upon receiving neural impulses, and neural impulses are generated by input from other neurons or from sense organs. On the epiphenomenalist view, mental events play no causal role in this process. Huxley (1874), who held the view, compared mental events to a steam whistle that contributes nothing to the work of a locomotive. James (1879), who rejected the view, characterized epiphenomenalists' mental events as not affecting the brain activity that produces them “any more than a shadow reacts upon the steps of the traveller whom it accompanies”. Ancient theories of the soul gave rise to debates among Aristotle's successors that have a strong resemblance to some contemporary discussions of the efficacy of mental events (Caston, 1997). The modern discussion of epiphenomenalism, however, traces back to a 19th century context, in which a dualistic view of mental events was assumed to be correct. The first part of our discussion — Traditional Arguments — will be phrased in a style that reflects this dualistic presupposition. By contrast, many contemporary discussions work within a background assumption of the preferability of materialist monism. One might have supposed that this position would have put an end to the need to investigate epiphenomenalism; but, as we shall see under Arguments in the Age of Materialism, such a supposition is far from being the case."

Follow 3 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: 4 m = 4 metres - this is distance 4 m/s = 4 metres per second - Velocity/speed. The difference between speed and velocity is that velocity is a vector, meaning it has a direction, whereas speed does not. 4 m/s^2 = 4 metres per second per second - Acceleration. Acceleration is how much faster an object is getting each second. If something is going around a roundabout at a constant speed, it is still said to be accelerating because the direction is constantly changing, meaning the velocity is also constantly changing.

"text": "Determining validity of Categorical Syllogisms There are two ways to determine whether a categorical syllogism is valid or invalid. One is to draw a picture of the premises using Venn diagrams (three overlapping circles: one for each category). If the conclusion shows up as a result of drawing the premises, then we know the argument is valid, because that means that the conclusion results necessarily from the premises. The other method is to check the form against a set of rules. Venn Diagrams When we analyze a categorical syllogism with Venn diagrams, we need three overlapping circles. Each circle represents one of the three terms (the Major, the Minor, and the Middle). The diagrams here are all labeled in terms of S, P, and M: “S” is the minor term (the Subject of the conclusion); “P” is the major term (the Predicate of the conclusion); and “M” is the middle term (the term occurring only in the premises). For the sake of being able to talk about the diagrams, I always put them in the same order: the left hand circle is the Minor term, the right hand circle is the Major term, and the circle below them is the Middle term. Then I number the segments starting from the top left. Make sure you follow this convention if you want to be able to communicate with me about where the shading and x’s should go in your diagrams."

The novel is essentially the story of Ahab and his quest to defeat the legendary Sperm Whale Moby Dick, for this whale took Ahab's leg, causing him to use an ivory leg to walk and stand. Ahab is a dour, imposing man who frightens his crew through his unwavering obsession with defeating Moby Dick and his grand hubris. In many respects Melville portrays Ahab as barely human, barely governed by human mores and conventions and nearly entirely subject to his own obsession with Moby Dick. Melville describes him in mostly alien terms: Ahab is a spectral figure haunting Stubb's dreams and existing in a place away from the living. He is in some ways a machine, unaffected by human appetites and without recognizable emotion. And most importantly, he claims himself a God over the Pequod, but instead he may be a Satanic figure through his somewhat blasphemous quest against the white whale. Ishmael Ishmael is the narrator of the novel, a simple sailor on the Pequod who undertakes the journey because of his affection for the ocean and his need to go sea whenever he feels \"\"hazy about the eyes.\"\" As the narrator Ishmael establishes him as somewhat of a cipher and an everyman, and in fact his role in the plot of the novel is inconsequential; his primary task is to observe the conflicts around him. Nevertheless, Melville does give his narrator several significant character traits, the most important of which is his idealization of the Sperm Whale and his belief in its majesty."

But Seattle is famous for a few of those things—often for good reason. Seattle's unique location sandwiched between the Puget Sound and the Cascade Mountain range, its tech boom and its love for coffee (and wine and beer) all help make up the fabric of the city, and are all parts of the reasons why people move here to work, live and play. Read on to find out what Seattle is known for and why!01of 08Coffee•••Seattle is home to a few coffee chains that have gone international—Starbucks, Seattle’s Best and Tully’s among them. While native Seattleites have varying opinions on whether brand-name coffee is acceptable or not, the fact is that there’s no shortage of coffee houses and cafes in Seattle, be they major chains or indie cafes. Seattleites (and Northwesterners in general) love their coffee. And why not? The climate is often cool."

Ellis is now an Amazon.com 100 Bestseller Part I of this article provided a basic legislative history of the TCPA, including why it was enacted and against whom it was intended to apply. Part I also examined one key element of the TCPA’s regulatory scheme, that is, what constitutes an automatic telephone dialing system. Part II analyzes the essential requirements that must be established in order to find liability under the TCPA. The TCPA’s remedies, potential defenses, and the unique importance of California law to the statutory scheme are also all addressed .)E. UNDER CALIFORNIA LAW AND THE LANGUAGE OF THE STATUTE, DEBTORS CLAIMING DAMAGES UNDER THE TCPA MUST BE CHARGED AND SUFFER INJURY IN FACTAs we have seen, the TCPA ostensibly provides a private right of action for actual and statutory damages. But, the statute itself contemplates that an essential element of the claim is that the “called party is charged.” ( See, e.g., TCPA, 47 U. S. C. § 227 (b) (1) (A) (iii); 2008 TCPA Order, ¶ 3 at p. 4. ) No court has apparently addressed the “charged for the call” issue in the debt collection context, although several courts have referred to Congressional intent to avoid shifting the cost of “advertising” to the recipient. However, in interpreting similar consumer protection statutes, California courts have repeatedly rejected the proposition that anyone who is merely “exposed” to a statutory violation, without more, has standing to sue under the regulatory scheme. Several decisions stand for this proposition: Meyervs. Sprint Spectrum, L. P. (2009) 45 Cal.4th 634; Jones v. The Lodge at Torrey Pines (2008) 42 Cal.4th 1158; Hale v.

Steam Controller First and foremost, let’s start with the Steam Controller. The final version of Valve’s controller is pretty much identical to what we saw at GDC 2015, featuring what has become the controller’s signature touchpads, along with an analog stick, motion controls, haptics (vibration), and what Valve is calling dual-stage triggers, all communicating with host systems over Bluetooth. Though ultimately lacking the touchscreens of Valve’s original design, the final controller retains the touchpads and the same goals Valve had held to since the start: making more traditional mouse-driven PC games playable on the couch with a controller. Valve has put up a short promotional video showing it in action, and it will be interesting to see if it works as well in real life as Valve would like it to. When not part of a Steam Machine bundle, Valve will be selling the Steam Controller stand-alone for $49.

Wake Up And Smell The Chemicals!By Food Babe178Share 85K Tweet Pin 595Last week, I posted a new investigation into the Starbucks Pumpkin Spice latte and exposed how Starbucks makes it difficult for its customers to know what they are drinking. This is because: Starbucks doesn’t publish the ingredients online. Starbucks doesn’t publish the allergen information online. Starbucks is inconsistent. We were given slightly different ingredients depending on who we spoke to at Starbucks. I also broke down the complete list of ingredients in this popular latte, including caramel coloring that contains the chemical 4-Mel, which is classified as a possible human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer and National Toxicity Program. A 2-year government funded feeding study found that 4-Mel caused lung cancer in mice. The Center of Science in Public Interest and the Consumers Union (the policy and action arm of Consumer Reports) recently petitioned the FDA to take action to limit caramel coloring in soft drinks. This post quickly went viral, with over 3 million views on Food Babe.com and 10 million views on Facebook in just a few days."

You may also think the title is offensive. My intention is to help, not to provoke anger. People who have declared themselves “vegan,” have said “no” to eating all animal-derived foods. At extraordinary personal costs, many of these guardians labor tirelessly to protect the welfare of all animals. Fat vegans, however, have failed one important animal: themselves. Furthermore, their audiences of meat-eaters and animal-abusers may be so distracted by their appearance that they cannot hear the vital issues of animal rights and the environment; resulting in an unacknowledged setback for a fat vegan’s hard work for change. I have a vested interest in helping vegans lose weight and become healthier. People living the vegan lifestyle have already embraced the most important tenet of the Mc Dougall diet: consuming meat, poultry, fish, and dairy-products is at the root of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and intestinal problems.

They are easy to make, very versatile, and fun to use and eat. Foams have been around traditional cooking for a very long time and include whipped cream, head on beers, and even bread dough. At the most basic level, foams are a structure that traps air in bubbles. Foams are similar in this way to an emulsion, which is when a liquid traps fat in a structure, or fat traps liquids in a structure. The structure can be made from a variety of things such as proteins, water, or fat. The texture of the foam is determined by the size of the bubbles and how much liquid is in the foam. Some foams are considered \"\"set\"\" foams, which means the structure has been solidified, such as when baking bread dough or a souffle. History of Foams The first use of culinary foams dates back to the 1700's when both sweet and savory souffles were created. The name souffle literally translates to \"\"puffed up\"\", which is a description of the dish and the soft matter which is neither flowing nor completely solid."

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."

But what exactly are coyote dancers and how does the concept work? Coyotes have long been a feature of upmarket Thai-style clubs and nightspots. They can be found in venues frequented exclusively by men but are just as likely to be seen in discos and bars, venues equally popular with males and females. Typically, coyotes are genuinely attractive girls who can dance – really dance with skill, enthusiasm and energy. It is their job to entertain. Some are semi-professional dancers with formal dance training. Entertaining in mainstream Thai-style venues they are strictly unavailable, that is as unavailable as any attractive and sexy female can be in an establishment which attracts that breed of wealthy man who never really stops looking and is willing to open his wallet to get what he wants."

These are interchangeable terms and indicate that a food, meat or plant food sources have been genetically engineered by modern science. The idea is promoted as a manner to alter the natural DNA of an organism with DNA molecules from different sources, which are combined into one molecule to create a new set of genes. This DNA is then transferred into an organism, giving it modified or novel genes. Some touted modifications include food crop plants with newly added defenses against insects or the resistance to heavy applications of pesticides. This seemingly beneficial application of recombinant DNA techniques is questionable at best and seems laden with negative side effects. There are many studies that indicate how the compounded effects of including G. E. foods in one’s diet truly are negative and unhealthful.

For the sharing of practical knowledge sake, recipes and health related suggestions are scattered among the knowledge undergrowth below. A good portion of advice offered here, is mostly anecdotal; the fruit of personal experience of myself and other individuals from around the world. I shall commence here by suggesting some basics but important tips applicable to culturing kefir and culturing foods in general. Keep all utensils clean. Wash utensils with hot water and detergent followed by rinsing with water. There is no need to sterilise fresh good quality ingredients or utensils in regards to culturing kefir with kefir grains. Use freshest best quality available raw Organically produced ingredients, where possible. Practice with patience when making significant change in the culture process or routine. This includes if switching between different milk types, volume changes of media or variations in temperature due to change in weather."

"text": "Brand Essentials Brands Featured Food Valentine’s Day often means a box of candy from your sweetie, but just what are you getting in that candy? That annual indulgence could cost you a lot more than you bargained for. Unhealthy chocolate brands are full of more than just sugar. Following our exposé on toxic ingredients in children’s cereal and peanut butter, this week we take a look at some of the unwanted ingredients hiding in your favorite chocolate candies and show you some better options. These are the ingredients we found in traditional, brand name chocolates that you might want to avoid: High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) and Corn Syrup Solids: These are GMO sweeteners made from corn. The amount of sugar in the standard American diet is disproportionately high, putting many at risk of diabetes and heart disease and have even been linked to cancer and dementia. According to Dr. Mark Hyman, HFCS poses those risks even if you eat moderate levels of it. Although hotly debated, he contends that our bodies process HFCS differently to how they process cane sugar, allowing fructose to be more rapidly absorbed into the blood stream. It then travels to the liver, triggering functions that increase your appetite, and increasing your chances of weight gain, diabetes, cancer and dementia. Unhealthy chocolate brands contain way more fructose than you’ll ever need."

The weird part is that soy milk curdles in coffee sometimes, but not always. The curdling occurs when the acid in the coffee coagulates the proteins in the soy milk. Instant tofu! How to avoid it?"

"text": "What Exactly Does “GMO” Mean? GMO stands for “genetically modified organism”, which is a new organism, not found in nature, created by scientists when they genetically modify or engineer food plants. Health and environmental risks with genetically modified foods have been identified. Genetically modified foods are also frequently described as “genetically engineered”, “genetically altered” or “genetically manipulated.” When scientists genetically modify or engineer food plants genes from an animal, plant, bacterium, or virus are inserted into the plant, thereby irreversibly altering the genetic code – the “blueprint” that determines all of an organism’s physical characteristics – of the organism that received the gene. Through this technology, scientists have created tomatoes with a longer shelf life by adding flounder genes, soybeans that are resistant to weed killers, potatoes that produce their own pesticides, and potatoes with jellyfish genes that glow in the dark when they need water. Genetic engineers are also working to develop fruits, vegetables, and grains with higher levels of vitamins and foods that contain vaccines against diseases like malaria, cholera and hepatitis. Since 1996, when the first large-scale commercial harvest of genetically engineered crops occurred in the United States, the percentage of genetically engineered crops grown in the United States has increased to include 35% of all corn, 55% of all soybeans, and nearly half of all cotton. In addition, much of the canola oil produced in Canada comes from genetically manipulated rape seed. It is estimated that as many as 75% of all food products in grocery stores contain genetically engineered ingredients."

"text": "\"My Top 5 Protein Bars That Are Good For You And The Planet Heidi L. George Coach Nutrition Share Tweet\"\"Where do you get your protein?\"\" is one of the most commonly asked questions when talking to someone about any diet in our society. Whether you follow the vegan diet or the paleo diet, if you care about your health, want to increase your muscle mass, or gain/lose some weight, then you need to know about clean, full, and sustainable protein sources. In conjunction with consuming enough protein each day, we also live in a very fast-paced society and are not always able to prepare our own smoothies, beef jerky, or complete meals everyday. I can totally relate to this chaos, as I am currently a Sales Representative for one of the fastest growing bar companies in the county. As you can imagine, I am on the road a lot and there are many times when I am so thankful that I can just reach in the back seat of my car and grab one of our protein bars. Bars are convenient fuel, whether it is after a strength training session, while I am on a hike with friends, or stuck in traffic. Even though I work for a protein bar company (and it IS one of the ones listed below), I do like to mix it up and try other products. Through my work in the organic all-natural food industry, I have become friends with many companies who have created outstanding bars that can meet the needs of anyone who is looking for a healthy, clean, and conscious protein bar.

A: Some women experience tissue-like clots coming out during their menstruation, but typically you cannot see any external signs the Wobenzym N is working. This is because the systemic enzymes eat and dissolve away the scar tissue, adhesion, and old blood or damaged tissues. The best way to see if you are making progress is to have a scan done, or other imaging testing done. Systemic Enzyme Therapy is best done for 3-4 months consistently for best results. Depending on the extent of scar tissue or adhesion damage, it may take longer.2. Q: I have a question about Dong Quai.

"text": "Natural Ways to Lower Your Cholesterol Updated July 29, 2016Published May 27, 2010 by Amy Campbell, MS, RD, CDEPrint Text Size: A A AHigh cholesterol has long been known to raise the risk of heart and blood vessel disease in people with diabetes and without. Unfortunately, it’s very common among Americans generally, including those with diabetes. The good news is that there’s a lot you can do to lower your cholesterol and, consequently, lower your risk of heart disease. Making the effort to lower blood cholesterol is especially important for people with diabetes — Type 1 or Type 2 — who have a higher risk of heart disease than the general public. The bad guy: LDLYour LDL, or “bad,” cholesterol is the culprit when it comes to raising the risk of heart disease. LDL stands for low-density lipoprotein, and if you have too much of it in your blood, it can build up along the insides of your artery walls, leading to the formation of fatty deposits called plaque. Plaque makes it harder for blood to flow through your arteries, which means that less blood can get to vital organs, such as your heart and brain. Sometimes this can lead to a heart attack or a stroke. Plaque can also rupture, triggering the formation of blood clots, which can also block the arteries, leading to a heart attack or stroke. Advertisement So it makes sense to keep your LDL level low."

"text": "Education & Reference Trivia Was Santa's suit originally green and why did it turn red?4 following 10 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Yes Santas suit was originally green back when he was known as St Nicholas, he then had a totally different meaning to the Santa Clause we know today. The truth behind the Santa we see in our times came about in the early 1950's and someone we all know very well helped to create this image. Coca Cola had a problem with sales in some European contries at the time due to 2 reasons. 1. Post war depression 2. Unknown product hard to introduce due to the depression. To make the product saleable world wide they had to come up with a sales pitch to capture this market. One clever sales marketer sent to Europe was studying up on childrens stories whilst there and came across St Nicholas, a man who gave willingly to children so that they may have some joy in their poor lives and decided to spread the sales of cola with a jolly fat man in a red and white suit, which perfectly matched their product colours, and instilled a feeling of joy about a man like St. nicholas who gave presents one day of each year to enrich their lives even just for a while. Not knowing this was created just to sell a product the Europeans took to it like a duck to water in the thought that America had stories similar to their own fabled St nicholas. You now know the story of both Santa's red suit and Coca Cola's push into the European market in hard times."

Located 75 miles (120 km) south of San Francisco at the edge of the coastal community of Santa Cruz, the campus lies on 2,001 acres (810 ha) of rolling, forested hills overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Monterey Bay. Founded in 1965, UC Santa Cruz began as a showcase for progressive, cross-disciplinary undergraduate education, innovative teaching methods and contemporary architecture. Since then, it has evolved into a modern research university with a wide variety of both undergraduate and graduate programs, while retaining its reputation for strong undergraduate support and student political activism.

[ 7] The Santa Cruz site was selected over a competing proposal to build the campus closer to the population center of San Jose. Santa Cruz was selected for the beauty, rather than the practicality, of its location, however, and its remoteness led to the decision to develop a residential college system that would house most of the students on-campus. [ 8] The formal design process of the Santa Cruz campus began in the late 1950s, culminating in the Long Range Development Plan of 1963. [ 9] Construction had started by 1964, and the university was able to accommodate its first students (albeit living in trailers on what is now the East Field athletic area) in 1965."

How did something as delicious as Chile Relleno, Shrimp Étouffée, and Bananas Foster get here? And gumbo? Green Chile Stew?

Irving Brad Adamson Theme music composer William Kevin Anderson Country of origin United States Canada Original language (s)English Production Producer (s) Howard Schwartz Adam Shaheen Linda Steiner Running time 49 mins Production company (s)Warner Bros. Animation Cuppa Coffee Studios Distributor Warner Premiere Warner Home Video Release Original network ABC Family [1]Original release December 13, 2008 [1]Chronology Preceded by The Year Without a Santa Claus A Miser Brothers' Christmas is a stop motion spin-off special based on some of the characters from the 1974 Rankin-Bass special The Year Without a Santa Claus. [ 2] Distributed by Warner Bros. Animation under their Warner Premiere label (the rights holders of the post-1974 Rankin-Bass library) and Toronto-based Cuppa Coffee Studios, the one-hour special premiered on ABC Family on Saturday, December 13, 2008, during the network's annual The 25 Days of Christmas programming. [ 1] Mickey Rooney and George S. Irving reprised their respective roles as Santa Claus and Heat Miser [1] [3] at ages 88 and 86. [ 4] Snow Miser, originally portrayed by Dick Shawn who died in 1987, was voiced by Juan Chioran, [4] while Mrs. Claus, voiced by Shirley Booth in the original, was portrayed by Catherine Disher (because Booth had died in 1992). The movie aimed to emulate the Rankin/Bass animation style. [ 5] This is the last Christmas special to feature Mickey Rooney as Santa Claus, as he died in 2014, as well as the last time George Irving voiced Heat Miser, as he died in 2016. Contents [ hide ]1 Plot2 Cast3 Reception4 References5 External links Plot [ edit]The feuding Miser Brothers attend their family reunion with Mother Nature and their fellow siblings North Wind, Earthquake, Thunder and Lightning, and the Tides. North Wind passively asks Mother Nature what might happen if Santa would be unable to complete his duties on Christmas. She responds that North Wind would take control instead. Self-absorbed and vain, North Wind becomes fixated with the idea of replacing Santa Claus as a way to achieve personal glory."

I just received a white record unexpectedly - it's now my 3rd colored record, joining a red and cool-looking transparent yellow and I must say, they look very striking and \"\"strange\"\" so I'm glad to have them. But, other than for novelty, what's the benefit of manufacturing vinyl in anything other than traditional black? Permalink5.9k1.1kdjdom1uk over 4 years ago Domenech74 But, other than for novelty, what's the benefit of manufacturing vinyl in anything other than traditional black? Good question, especially as they are allegedly not as good quality as standard vinyl records! Coloured vinyl vs Black [ordinary] vinyl. http://www.discogs.com/groups/topic/226494Permalink18524061Ksos63 over 4 years ago Domenech74 Are they collector's items? With respect to the genre of music one likes, colored vinyl may, in fact, have a substantial value over their black counterparts. I have collected Led Zeppelin bootlegs aka unofficial pressings for decades and have found that some highly coveted titles in color, sell for three to 5 times the price of the same exact recording--even a first pressing. The various bootleg \"\"manufacturer\"\" also matters, as there are examples of colored vinyl which actually sound better than an officially released record!"

Composer/guitarist Peter Green previously had been part of John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, at first as a fill-in for the absent Eric Clapton. Mayall considered Green to be a more-than-adequate sub for Clapton and once predicted he would be greater than the great god Eric. It didn’t quite pan out that way, but Green is nonetheless a terrific guitarist. Fleetwood Mac circa 1969: Mick Fleetwood, John Mc Vie, Jeremy Spencer, Danny Kirwan & Peter Green The Fleetwood Mac version is noteworthy because it is deeply planted in the psychedelic era, and has the air of quasi-mysticism that suffused the music of the mid- to late-‘60s Britain and America."

"text": "Every year after Thanksgiving, most people’s thoughts turn to Christmas. It is the time when professing Christians are supposed to focus on Jesus Christ. After all, it is the “Christ-mass” season!Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer, holly wreaths, decorated trees, mistletoe, season’s greetings, seasonal music, “chestnuts roasting on an open fire” and Santa Claus are all associated with this holiday. These all bring warm feelings to those who celebrate it. I grew up in a family that kept Christmas, and it was a very big event in our household every year. We left out none of the usual trimmings of this occasion. On December 24th, excitement grew with every passing minute. My parents even brewed black coffee for Santa just before sending us off to bed. I always wondered how they knew Santa liked his coffee black—just like my parents liked theirs. After going to bed on Christmas Eve, I could neither sleep nor wait to get up in the morning to see all that “Santa” had brought me."

"text": "\"The Santa Muerte Mexican Goddess of death and the dead ORIGINSThe Santa Muerte also known as Santisima Muerte is the beloved goddess of death who's origins date to the Pre Hispanic period of Mexico. The Mexica knew her by another name MICTECACIHUATL \"\"Lady of the Land of the Dead\"\" another spelling may be MICTLANTECIHUATL, she was believed to be a protector of souls residing in the dark underworld. Mistress to MICTLANTECAHTLI Lord of Mictlan Land of the dead Lord of Darkness. The Mexica depicted Mictecacihuatl as a woman in traditional Mexica female garb adorned or decorated with flags which were put upon corpses prepared for cremation, she wears a skull mask with a beak portruding from the nasal cavity of the skull mask, or perhaps it is a knife or blade thereof. I will try to focus on the Lady of the Land of the Dead, and in another essay I will cover more in depth the symbolism and special aspects of LORD MICTLANTECAHTLI with the exception of noting some of his icons and how they relate to Mictecacihuatl and her current form the Santa Muerte. Mictecacihuatl is the goddess that is connected to the sacred Day of the Dead in Mexico Dia de los Muertos, originally the holiday fell at the end of the month of July and the beginning of August, dedicated to the children and the dead. The holiday was moved in post-conquest times by the Spanish Priests to coincide with All Hallows Eve, a vain attempt by the priests to convert this sacred day to a Christian holiday. Never the less the Day of the dead retains its ancient roots honoring the Lady of the Land of the Dead. It is said that the old Gods are not dead but sleeping and can awaken through faith and prayer. Both Mictecacihuatl and her lord Mictlantecahtli were given blood offerings by the Mexica asking in exchange for a favorable or peaceful death when the time came to die."

In one scene, as Creasy revisits the actual location of the kidnapping, Reforma journalist Mariana (played by Rachel Ticotin) picks up an amulet off the ground and says to him, “It’s Santa Muerte. Death worship. The religion of La Hermandad [The name of the kidnapping gang in the movie]. There’s a curse on you.” [ 1] The statement was intended as a subtle reminder of the notorious Mexican kidnapper known as El Mochaorejas [literally, “the ear-chopper”], who was a devotee of Santa Muerte [Holy Death], a corruption (some would say perversion) of the cult of the Blessed Virgin in Mexican Catholicism. [ 2] The film received mixed reviews and it appears that the allusion escaped the comprehension of much of the audience. Nevertheless, it offers an interesting glimpse, from the point-of-view of Hollywood cinema, into an intriguing facet of Mexican organized crime. Because of the underground nature of organized crime, it transcends the boundaries of conventional business and emerges as a distinct subculture, indeed a number of subcultures, complete with all of the various accoutrements thereof."

"text": "By John Kamau Nairobi — A small group of powerful politically-connected tycoons controls billions in the insurance industry, writes John Kamau Formerly Alico until it was acquired by CFC. Kenya's multi-billion shillings insurance industry is in the hands of a few politically connected ex-politicians and suave businessmen who sit on the boards either as chairmen or directors. Investigations by The Sunday Standard show that the insurance industry has been a soft target for the well connected to make a quick buck. As the companies continue to flourish and publish their annual financial statements, it emerges that the ownership of the industry reads like who is who in Kenya. Although some of the best-known names have not been influencing how their companies access business, it is common knowledge in the insurance industry that invoking some of the names means or used to mean instant business. And why not? Since the Jomo Kenyatta and Moi regimes, those close to the presidency were able to build empires that revolved around the insurance industry and the Kibaki presidency is no exception. Philip Ndegwa The most notable success story in the 15-year Kenyatta rule through Moi and now Kibaki was the late Phillip Ndegwa, who was Kenyatta's Finance Permanent Secretary and later on - from 1982 - Governor of Central Bank of Kenya. Ndegwa's family has built a fortune through the Insurance Company of East Africa (ICEA), which was incorporated in November 1964 with a share capital of less than Sh4 million. Today ICEA is one of the best performing wholly Kenyan insurance companies."

"text": "\"Africa & Middle East Kenya Nairobi Swahili Basics and Useful Phrases for Travelers to East Africa By Anouk Zijlma Updated 12/08/17Share Pin Email•••If you're planning a trip to East Africa, consider learning a few basic phrases of Swahili before you go. Whether you're embarking on a once-in-a-lifetime safari or planning on spending several months as a volunteer, being able to converse with the people you meet in their own language goes a long way towards bridging the cultural gap. With a few of the right phrases, you'll find that people are friendlier and more helpful everywhere you go. Who Speaks Swahili? Swahili is the most widely spoken language in sub-Saharan Africa, and acts as the lingua franca for most of East Africa (although it's not the first language of many people). In Kenya and Tanzania, Swahili shares the title of official language with English and primary school children are usually taught in Swahili. Many Ugandans understand some Swahili, although it's rarely spoken outside of the capital, Kampala. If you're traveling in Rwanda or Burundi, French will probably get you further than Swahili, but a few words here and there should be understood and the effort will be appreciated. Swahili is also spoken in parts of Zambia, the DRC, Somalia and Mozambique. It is estimated that around 100 million people speak Swahili (although only around one million consider it to be their mother tongue)."

"text": "Streptococcus agalactiae Overview: Streptococcus agalactiae (also known as group-B streptococcus or beta-strep) is a Gram-positive coccus, non-motile, non-spore-forming, catalase-negative, spherical or ovoid, and less than 2 µm (micrometres) in diameter; it is usually β-haemolytic and can grow in pairs or short chains ( Figure 1 ). S. agalactiae causes invasive disease primarily in newborns and in women in the postpartum period. Adults with severe infections unrelated to pregnancy are usually elderly and have underlying illness such as diabetes mellitus, liver failure, malignancy, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or renal failure. In non-pregnant adults, skin or soft-tissue infection, bacteremia , genitourinary infection, and pneumonia are the most common manifestations of disease. Figure 1. A micrograph depicting Streptococcus agalactiae bacteria. Colonial Morphology and Identification: Colonial morphology of S. agalactiae in culture is typically gray to whitish-gray in colour when grown on sheep blood agar. As mentioned, most strains of this organism are beta-hemolytic, suggesting that they are able to lyse red blood cells and grow on blood agar medium. In addition, the CAMP test is an important test for its identification ( Figure 2 ). Mainly Streptococcus agalactiae bacteria are screened through this test."

When strep grow they divide in one plane, such as chains or pairs Does streptococci possess catalase? No, streptococci do not posses catalase, however staphylococci do possess catalase. Catalase converts hydrogen peroxide which is used by macrophages and neutrophils into water and oxygen. Certain species of strep can either completely or partially hemolyze red blood cells. The strep are divided into 3 groups based on their specific hemolytic ability: 1. Beta-hemolytic: strep completely lyse the RBCs, leaving a clear zone of hemolysis around the colony example: S. pyogenes 2."

Group B streptococcal infection can cause serious illness and sometimes death, especially in newborns, the elderly, and people with compromised immune systems. GBS was recognized as a pathogen in cattle by Edmond Nocard and Mollereau in the late 1880s, but its significance as a human pathogen was not discovered before 1938, when Fry described three fatal cases of puerperal infections caused by GBS. [ 1] In the early 1960s, GBS was recognized as a main cause of infections in newborns. [ 2]In general, GBS is a harmless commensal bacterium being part of the human microbiota colonizing the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts of up to 30% of healthy human adults ( asymptomatic carriers ). [ 3] [4] [5]S. agalactiae is also a common veterinary pathogen, because it can cause bovine mastitis ( inflammation of the udder) in dairy cows. The species name \"\"agalactiae\"\" meaning \"\"no milk\"\", alludes to this. [ 6]S. agalactiae is a Gram-positive coccus (spherical bacterium) with a tendency to form chains (streptococcus), beta-haemolytic, catalase -negative, and facultative anaerobe. [ 7] [8] [9]S. agalactiae is the species designation for streptococci belonging to the group B of the Rebecca Lancefield classification of streptococci ( Lancefield grouping ).

S. aureus is the major pathogen and can cause suppuration, abscess formation, a variety of pyogenic infections, and even fatal septicemia. S. epidermidis is normally non-pathogenic but can produce disease under certain conditions. The staphylococci produce the enzyme catalase that distinguishes them from the streptococci which do not. By definition, strains of staphylococci that produce the enzyme coagulase are S. aureus, thus differentiating them from all other staphylococci which do not. Most strains of S. aureus produce a non-diffusible golden yellow pigment and a zone of clear beta hemolysis on agar containing blood. Non-pathogenic strains of staphylococci usually produce white or grayish colonies and are coagulase negative."

Fastidious organisms, such as streptococci, do not grow well on ordinary growth media. Blood agar is a type of growth medium ( trypticase soya agar enriched with 5% sheep blood) that encourages the growth of bacteria, such as streptococci, that otherwise wouldn’t grow. Blood contains inhibitors for certain bacteria such as Neisseria and Haemophilus genera and the blood agar must be heated to inactivate these inhibitors and to release essential growth factors (e.g., V factor) . Heating of blood agar converts it into chocolate agar (heated blood turns a chocolate color) and supports the growth of these bacteria. Beta hemolysis in sheep blood agar. Blood agar consists of a base containing a protein source (e.g. Tryptones), soybean protein digest, sodium chloride (Nacl), agar and 5% sheep blood.

Brown (1919) introduced three terms alpha, beta and gamma to indicate three types of streptococci based on haemolytic reactions observed on blood agar plates. Beta-hemolytic Streptococci Source : Bacteria in Photos (http://www.bacteriainphotos.com)Beta-hemolysis (β-hemolysis) is associated with complete lysis of red cells surrounding the colony. Beta hemolysis is caused by two hemolysins O and S; the former is inactive in the presence of oxygen. Thus, stabbing of the plate increases the intensity of the hemolysis reaction. S is an oxygen-stable cytotoxin. It exhibit a wide zone (2-4 mm wide). Beta hemolysis is more marked when the plate has been incubated anaerobically. They are generally commensals of throat and causes opportunistic infections."

They are distinguished from the other major genus of Gram-positive cocci – Staphylococcus by their cellular arrangement and their inability to produce the enzyme catalase. Nomenclature The starting point is hemolytic reactions on sheep’s blood agar: Beta – complete clearing of red blood cells around colonies Alpha – green discoloration of agar around colonies Gamma – no hemolysis (strains usually referred to as Non-hemolytic)Beta-hemolytic streptococci These organisms are further divided into serologic subgroups called Lancefield groups designated by capital letters A, B, C etc. The two most important types of beta-hemolytic streptococci, by far, are Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus (GAS) or Streptococcus pyogenes and Group B beta-hemolytic streptococcus (GBS) or Streptococcus agalactiae. Infections similar to those caused by GAS are occasionally caused by Group C and G beta-hemolytic streptococci. Alpha-hemolytic streptococci Most of these species are referred to as a group – viridans streptococci. They are also sometimes referred to as “green strep” owing to the color of blood agar surrounding the colonies. Many different species comprise the viridans streptococci. Notable examples include Streptococcus mitis, S. mitior, and S. sanguis. However clinical microbiology laboratories generally do not have the ability (or the interest) to differentiate one species from the other."

Identification of the Gram-Positive, Catalase Negative Cocci Genera The following genera and species are identified in Streptococcus Reference Laboratory. There are three major reasons for the increase in number of genera that clinical microbiologist must identify. First the genetic studies by taxonomists have clarified the relationship of some genera. The enterococci and lactococci were split from the Streptococcus genus. DNA homology studies have indicated that these two genera are separate and distinct entities. In addition the vagococci were split from the Lactococcus genus on the same basis. The tetragenococci were split from the Pediococcus genus because it too is genetically different from the other members of the genus. The Leuconostoc s and pediococci were considered non-pathogenic until the mid 1980's. It is believed that the increase in use of vancomycin caused the increase in isolation of species of these two genera."

"text": "\"Oh no, it's the purple people infector!Gram positive stain of Streptococcus pyogenes, by Dr. William Schwan, University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. The picture above is a wonderful example of the Streptococcus pyogenes being gram-positive. A bacteria is gram-positive when it is a purple color after being stained. As you can see, the Streptococcus pyogenes is a gram-positive bacteria. It can also be seen that the bacteria has a coccoid shape and grows in chains. This picture is a perfect example of what Streptococcus pyogenes looks like when it is properly gram stained. In order to isolate Streptococcus pyogenes, a medium must contain blood but not reducing sugars. In a benzidine reaction, a negative indicates that a gram-positive coccus is a member of the Streptococcaceae. This species is the only member of serological group A. A throat swab that is taken at the doctor is examined only for the presence of a beta-hemolytic streptococci (Starr 1572-1574) . After 18-24 hours of growth on blood agar the colonies are domed, grayish in color and approximately .5 mm in diameter."

When grown on blood agar, Group A streptococci are sensitive to (killed by) the antibiotic bacitracin. A sterile disk impregnated with bacitracin (also known as “Taxo A disk”) is placed on the first sector of an isolation plate before incubation. A zone of inhibition (area with no growth) will be seen around the disk after incubation if the organism is a Group A beta-hemolytic Streptococcus. Other beta-hemolytic streptococci are resistant to (not killed by) bacitracin. Their colonies will thus grow right up to the disk of bacitracin.

Bone structure limits the kind and amount of movement, others are freely moveable with a variety of movement ranges. The type and range of movements are similar in all humans; but the freedom, range, and vigor of movements are limited by ligaments and muscles. The articulations are grouped into three classe based on their structure and the amount of movement possible. Synarthrodial (immovable) joints Found in the sutures of cranial bones and sockets of the teeth. Amphiarthrodial (slightly movable) joint Structurally, these articulations are divided into two groups. Syndesmosis Type of joint held together by strong ligamentous structures that allow minimal movements between the bones. Examples are the coracocalvicular joint and the inferior tibiofibular joint.

If you're not having any disk problems now, or pain in your left shoulder, arm or hand, then you're probably okay. It only really becomes a problem when it degenerates to the point where it can lead to herniation or other problems causing inflammation and pain.

However, most lawyers agree that joint custody can be defined in two ways: Joint legal custody. This term means that the parents will share in making all major decisions that affect the child. These decisions might include whether or not the child will go to private or public school, undergo elective surgery, or move with one parent to another state. It does not mean that the parents will jointly make day-to-day decisions. Neither does it mean that the child will spend the same amount of time with each parent. Joint physical custody."

The custodial parent is the parent the child lives with the majority of the time. The only time child support would not be ordered to be paid is if you and the child's father both have the child equal amounts of time. Full custody is where one parent has the right to make all major decisions for the child without having to consult the other parent. It's difficult to get full custody without proving the other parent is unfit or a danger to the child. Sole custody means you have all rights to the child, including the right to keep the child away from the other parent should be pose a threat to your child's well being."

"text": "Reversed Polarity Metalsmithing Welding How does reverse polarity effect a welding joint?6 Answers David Turner Answered Apr 12, 2015I understand a little about electricity. When you use reverse polarity ( electrode + ) the electrons travel from negative to positive ( this means from the work to the electrode. This super heats the electrode and the rod material travels across the arc stream with a high velocity and digs into the metal causing deeper penetration. Two thirds of the heat is directed at the electrode and one third to the work. When you use straight polarity ( electrode negative ) the electrons travel from the electrode to the work. Two thirds of the heat is directed to the work and one third to the electrode. Even though more heat is directed to the work the penetration is not a deep as with electrode positive. This allows you to use straight polarity with a rod like a 6013 and stick weld sheet metal without burn through... if you are good. AC is good for welding material that is magnetized to eliminate arc blow. The penetration by AC is also more than with straight polarity but less than that of the reversed."

These have included a comprehensive box set of his years on the MGM label for Universal and a one-disc career-spanning greatest hits from Legacy Recordings. They are teaming up with Legacy again to celebrate one of Orbison’s landmark performances with Black &White Night 30, due to be released on February 24th as a CD/DVD set and a CD/Blu-ray set. Black & White Night was filmed September 30, 1987 at the Coconut Grove in Los Angeles. Orbison was in the beginning of a career resurgence during this period after his song “In Dreams” was featured in David Lynch’s 1986 film Blue Velvet. He would soon join The Traveling Wilburys. Filmed entirely in black and white, Orbison was backed by Elvis Presley’s TCB Band and joined for the show by guests including Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello, k.d. lang, Tom Waits, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Jennifer Warnes and J.

His first instructor was a German shotokan stylist named Juergen Seydel who taught Elvis at his off-base housing in Nauheim until 1958. One nice thing about the military was that you got thirty days of paid vacation (leave) each year. During his vacation in Paris he would take private lessons with Tetsugio Murakami, one of Japan's top shotokan stylists, who would help pioneer shotokan in Europe. On one occasion he spent nine straight days studying for several hours each day with Murakami. With a lot of spare time on his hands Elvis would spend hours training with Rex Mansfield, another soldier stationed with Elvis in Germany. It was during this time that Elvis would also start conditioning his hands for board breaking by banging his knuckles against hard surfaces. His next Instructor was Japanese Shotokan Master Tetugio Murakami who became the Shotokan master of Europe. In 1960 Elvis, with Japanese style training under his belt, Elvis met the Father of American Kenpo, Ed Parker at the Wilshire Beverly Hills Hotel after a Karate demonstration."

Bhutan enjoys a reputation for authenticity, remoteness and a well-protected cultural heritage and natural environment. Today tourism is a vibrant business with a high potential for growth and further development. The Royal Government of Bhutan adheres strongly to a policy of 'High Value, Low Impact' tourism which serves the purpose of creating an image of exclusivity and high- yield for Bhutan. Our vision“To foster a vibrant industry as a positive force in the conservation of environment, promotion of cultural heritage, safeguarding sovereign status of the Nation for significantly contributing to Gross National Happiness. ”The tourism industry in Bhutan is founded on the principle of sustainability, meaning that tourism must be environmentally and ecologically friendly, socially and culturally acceptable and economically viable. The Royal Government of Bhutan recognizes that tourism is a world-wide phenomenon and an important means of achieving socioeconomic development particularly for a developing country like Bhutan. It believes that tourism, in affording the opportunity to travel, can help to promote a deeper understanding among people and to strengthen ties of friendship based on a deeper appreciation and respect for different cultures and lifestyles. Towards achieving this objective, the Royal Government, has adopted a very cautious approach to growth and development of the tourism industry in Bhutan. Its tremendous potential as a truly indigenous industry and the clear comparative advantages Bhutan enjoys, are compelling reasons to promote Bhutan as a high-end tourist destination in a manner which accords with the tenets of Gross National Happiness."

Security Council Passes New Sanctions on North Korea The United Nations Security Council approved a new regimen of sanctions on Thursday against North Korea for its underground nuclear test last month in a unanimous vote that came just hours after North Korea threatened for the first time to launch a pre-emptive nuclear strike against the United States and South Korea. Source: NYT (http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/08/world/asia/north-korea-warns-of-pre-emptive-nuclear-attack.html?_r=0) The tougher sanctions impose penalties on North Korean banking, travel and trade and were passed in a 15-0 vote that reflected the country’s increased international isolation. China, the North’s longtime benefactor, helped the United States draft the sanctions resolution in what outside experts called a sign of Beijing’s growing annoyance with Pyongyang’s defiant behavior on the nuclear issue. The Chinese had entreated the North Koreans not to proceed with the Feb. 12 underground nuclear test, their third.

At the age of 10, he famously snuck into Elvis Presley's dressing room before a show at the Shrine Mosque in Springfield, telling Elvis, 'you can't play guitar worth a damn'. Elvis was amused and impressed with this kid and predicted they would meet again. They did. John was born on July 3, 1945 to parents Dr. Richard and Virginia Wilkinson. He grew up in Springfield, Missouri, where he attended Greenwood Laboratory School. John was drawn to music very early. After playing in a high school band with his classmates called, 'The Coachmen', John went on to make a name for himself as a folk and country singer and guitar player. He traveled around the country playing with such groups as 'The Kingston Trio', 'The Goodtime Singers', 'Greenwood County Singers', and 'The New Christy Minstrels'. John and Elvis met again in 1968, when the King of Rock 'n' Roll invited John to join his band."

A split module has its radio control and radio components separated. Both types fall under 47CFR Part 15.212."

"text": "\"My previous page examined the Internet Protocol (IP) in considerable detail. The Internet Protocol handles the lower-layer functionality. Now you can look at the transport layer, where Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) comes into play. TCP is one of the most widely used transport layer protocols, expanding from its original implementation on the ARPAnet to connect commercial sites all over the world. In my first web page, you saw the OSI seven-layer model, which bears a striking resemblance to TCP/IP's layered model; so it is not surprising that many of the features of the OSI transport layer were based on TCP. In theory, a transport layer protocol could be a very simple software routine, but TCP cannot be called simple. Why use a transport layer that is as complex as TCP? The most important reason depends on IP's unreliability. As seen in my previous page, IP does not guarantee delivery of a datagram; it is a connectionless system. IP simply handles the routing of datagrams; and if problems occur, IP discards the packet without a second thought (generating an error message back to the sender in the process)."

This is done using existing privilege escalation tools such as sudo, su, pfexec, doas, pbrun, dzdo, ksu, runas and others. Note Prior to version 1.9, Ansible mostly allowed the use of sudo and a limited use of su to allow a login/remote user to become a different user and execute tasks and create resources with the second user’s permissions. As of Ansible version 1.9, become supersedes the old sudo/su, while still being backwards compatible. This new implementation also makes it easier to add other privilege escalation tools, including pbrun (Powerbroker), pfexec, dzdo (Centrify), and others.

It basically means what it says, a \"\"true\"\" or \"\" real \"\" thug. To be a true, you have to be true to yourself and not be a fake. You have to be true to the people around, you have to be real about everything and come from the heart about everything. A \"\"tru\"\" doesnt mean a gangsta, becuz there are fake gangsters and there are wannabe gangsters,a \"\"Tru\"\" is completely real. The phrase became popular specifically on the Eastside of Cleveland on St. Clair Ave. ( Tha Clair) Especially in the Glenville neighborhood. It spread all across the ghettos in Cleveland, and into other ghettos across the nation. Its not as popular as it once was, but is still used in Cleveland.

"text": "\"Prostate Cancer Treatment and Screening Options Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer among men, with approximately 230,000 new cases diagnosed each year. However, because prostate cancer may progress slowly in some men, the side effects of some treatments may outweigh the benefits. Crucial in choosing the appropriate treatment option is to first determine an accurate staging of the prostate cancer. Advanced prostate MR imaging with endorectal coil has been proven to be an important tool in the accurate staging of prostate cancer and detecting tumor spread outside the prostate gland. Simply click on each question for more detail. How Does Prostate Cancer Compare to Other Cancers? Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men, after skin cancer. One in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. The American Cancer Society estimates 239,590 new cases and 29,720 deaths from prostate cancer in 2013. Compared to breast and lung cancer, prostate cancer is more common, but with a lower mortality rate."

"text": "Hematospermia demystified An anxious colleague recently came into my office and closed the door. “ I think I might have prostate cancer,” he said quietly. After a moment of stunned silence, I asked him about his prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level and whether he had had a biopsy. “ I haven’t had a PSA test recently, and I’ve never had a biopsy,” he replied. “ What makes you think that you might have prostate cancer?” I asked. “ Well,” he said, “my wife and I had sex last night, and she noticed that there was blood in my semen. ”Few things alarm a man and his partner more than seeing bloody ejaculate, a condition called hematospermia, or hemospermia. It conjures fears of cancer or a sexually transmitted disease. While it’s true that hematospermia may indicate prostate cancer or another urologic disease, that’s usually not the case."

Combine that with the company's exception service, and you have a recipe for outstanding value. Tru Green Cost Factors There are a variety of situations and scenarios that factor in to the cost of your lawn control. For instance, a large lawn might cost a bit extra, while a smaller one would generally be a bit cheaper in comparison. Some lawn care packages include special services that can affect their cost. Examples include tree and shrub management and services that prioritize environmental safety. Unscheduled services may also factor in to the cost of lawn care. Frequent service calls, for instance, could incur an additional cost depending on the situation. Usually, though, Tru Green prices are predictable and steady."

James Grafton Senior Researcher & Editor Consumer Advisor Guide Yes, the scientific community is now saying a good probiotic could be the key if you are suffering from anything ranging from Irritable Bowel Syndrome, to Constipation, Irregularity, Gas, Bloating, Food Sensitivity and other symptoms of poor digestion. What’s even more impressive is that studies show probiotics actually target the root cause of poor digestive issues. Fixing poor digestion can lead to other health benefits such as:• Better Metabolism • Stronger Immune System • Boosted Energy • Improved Mood • Healthier Skin Probiotics help us restore our gut to the right balance of good-to-bad bacteria. The good bacteria in our gut help us digest food, fight off infections; reduce inflammation, and removes toxins. On the other hand, bad bacteria in our gut promote inflammation, gas, bloating, and weakens our body’s ability to digest food properly and fight off pathogens. Thus, many doctors and scientists are now saying taking a probiotic can be the single best thing you can to do to promote the good health of your body. And if you’re reading this, you’ve probably heard all the buzz about the bacteria in your digestive system. Companies are responding to the buzz about probiotic and digestive health by releasing more and more new brands of supplements. Some of them are great."

A dog biopsy, much like a biopsy done on a human, is the procedure used to test a tumor to see whether it is cancerous or not. These biopsies are usually required to identify lumps or tumors that abnormally grow. The goal is to provide an accurate picture of the disease process taking place.“ Casper is miserable ” ( CC BY 2.0 ) by Texas Dark Horse How much does a dog biopsy cost? On average, a less evasive biopsy can cost $300 to $900, whereas a complex surgical biopsy could cost $2,000 to $3,000, including the hospitalization and medication. According to Vetary.com, the cost of a biopsy will vary depending on the kind being performed.

Genes are special segments of DNA letters that, when read correctly by the body's proteins, can provide a specific and important instruction for the body to function properly. Researchers estimate that there are about 22,000 genes contained in the genome. Although genes are very important, they make up only a small percentage of all of the DNA in the genome. Each gene has a specific location on one of our 23 chromosomes and is inherited, or passed down, from generation to generation as a unit. We have two copies of each chromosome and, thus, two copies of each gene. We inherit one copy from each of our parents and, in turn, pass on one of our two copies to each of our children. Each gene contains a specific set of instructions for the body. Some genes contain multiple sets of instructions. Usually these instructions make a protein."

Since these fake refresh numbers are invented by each company, they are also all different from each other, which makes direct comparison across brands impossible for those who don’t know the conversion to real refresh rates (which generally are not listed). Samsung Motion Rate (2017)Samsung's Motion Rate (previously Clear Motion Rate) is pretty straightforward nowadays. For the rare 1080p Samsung TVs still left, the quoted motion rate will be equivalent to the real refresh rate.

Vizio, however, also uses a confusing number called \"\"Clear Action\"\"."

"text": "Top 10 Best Shampoos for Oily Hair8K Views 1 Shares 9 Comments By Jeanna Hofmeister Mar 9, 2016 at 10:49am You’ve finally had it with bad hair days. If you have greasy or oily hair that refuses to be tamed, there’s help at hand. Believe it or not, over-washing can actually cause your scalp and hair to be more oily, as can shampooing too infrequently. So many of the shampoos for oily hair seem to strip the hair shafts of their natural moisture leaving hair tangled when it’s wet and flyaway when it’s dry. So what’s the solution? There are lots of great clarifying shampoos on the market. The advantage to these is their ability to de-gunk your hair and allow your scalp’s natural oils to moisturize the hair shafts. There are also plenty of natural and organic shampoos that are recommended for oily hair as well. The upside to those is that they often contain refreshing, scalp invigorating herbs and essences that leave your hair looking and smelling fantastic. As an added bonus, many of these formulas also give your head a super-cool tingling sensation."

Having the right hook, getting the maximum number of hits, having a good bite-to-hookup ratio and landing a hooked fish are all critical elements. Without them everything else really doesn't mean much. A hook is a hook, right? Not really. There are so many different fishing situations along with different hook styles, colors and sizes to consider. However, in the crappie fishing world, the Aberdeen style hook has always dominated. It's long shank, large bend and light wire makes it a great choice for crappie. The light wire allows it to be bent without breaking your line (most of the time)."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For Declaration of Conformity see Conformance mark Type Approval or Certificate of Conformity is granted to a product that meets a minimum set of regulatory, technical and safety requirements. Generally, type approval is required before a product is allowed to be sold in a particular country, so the requirements for a given product will vary around the world. Processes and certifications known as Type Approval in English are generally called Homologation, or some cognate expression, in other European languages. Compliance to type-approval requirements can be denoted by a third-party marking on the back of the product (e.g. ABS, TUV,UL, CSA), or by a Type-Approval certificate obtained by a manufacturer and kept on file. The CE mark found on the back of many electronic devices does not mean that the product has obtained Type Approval in the European Union. The CE mark is the manufacturer's declaration that the system/assembly meets the MINIMUM safety requirements of all the Directives (laws) applicable to it, and of itself, does not signify any Third Party involvement in the design or testing of a system/assembly. Many of the New Approach safety directives do not mandate third party involvement at all (e.g. LVD, EMD), and the ones that do (e.g. PED, MDD, ATEX) only require Notified Body (No Bo) involvement above a certain degree of risk category. When the risk category mandates this involvement, the CE Marking on the system/assembly will be followed by the No Bo number, which right to use is granted by the No Bo after the required design review, testing or auditing, as spelled out in the Conformity Assessment options of each Directive. See http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/policies/single-market-goods/cemarking/about-ce-marking/index_en.htm. On the other hand, in China type approval is denoted by the CCC mark."

"text": "Everything you need to know about claiming mileage – all in one place UK taxpayers are now able to claim Mileage Allowance Relief, a special kind of income tax rebate, when they use their own vehicle for business travel. If you’ve used your own car for business travel at any point since April 2013, it’s time to find out how much you could be owed. It is a fairly common practice for employees to use their own vehicles for business travel, and in recompense they are generally able to claim the expenses for fuel or mileage from their employers. What might not be well known is that if your employer does not pay you any mileage expenses – or if you are only paid a low amount for each mile travelled – then you may be eligible to claim mileage allowance relief, in the form of a tax rebate, from HM Revenue & Customs. Approved Mileage Rates You can work out if you are entitled to this tax relief by multiplying your total business miles for the year by the approved mileage rate, which will give you the approved amount. It’s then simply a case of comparing this amount to the total mileage allowance payments you have received for the year from your employer. If the total payments from your employer are less than the HMRC’s approved amount, you will qualify for relief on the difference. However, if the payments from your employer are more than the approved amount, you will need to pay income tax and NICs on the extra, if you have not already done so. Our tax team has compiled a comprehensive mileage allowance tax rebate calculator to do this for you – please see the link above. There are different types of travel you will use your vehicle for: journeys to and from your normal workplace, your private travel outside work hours and your business-related travel – so you will need to keep clear records of all your business travel to keep it distinct from the other times you use your vehicle."

When the University commits to a purchase from a supplier, the supplier is expected to have adequate resources or working capital in order to provide the requested goods/services. Advance payment to a supplier can incur additional costs for the University, present risk of loss of the funds advanced, and reduce the University’s ability to negotiate in a dispute. Advance payments require Procurement Services approval. University Controller approval is also required for advance payments that equal or exceed $5,000. Advance payments may be made for maintenance agreements, software license agreements, subscriptions and other purchases, which meet one of the following criteria: The advance payment will result in a savings which is at least equal to or greater than the interest which the University would earn by investing the funds and paying in arrears. Commodities or services are essential to the operation of the University and are available only if advance payment is made. Note: This advance payment provision applies only when there is no supplier available that will accept a Purchase Order, not just that the recommended supplier will not accept a purchase order. The requisitioning department must provide documentation that the payment request meets one of the above criteria. The Procurement Specialist will review to ensure that the advance payment vs. deliverables is fair and reasonable."

Most commonly these seats are purchased and installed by consumers, but car manufacturers may integrate them directly into their vehicle's design and generally are required to provide anchors and to ensure seat belt compatibility. Many jurisdictions require children defined by age, weight, and/or height to use a government-approved child safety seat when riding in a vehicle.

Many products have a label that says “Crash Tested!” and even add “to FMVSS standards” on the box or in the product manual, but this is misleading since there is nothing in FMVSS that covers these items; hence the term “non-regulated.” There is no way to know how a mirror, harness pads, seat protector, or anything else that doesn’t come with the seat will change how it performs during a crash. There’s no crash test performance standard or benchmark for testing, so while companies do claim to test items like harness pads or inserts, we just don’t know which seats are being tested with which items, or how, and what the results of the tests were."

"text": "When you're looking for ink, usually you want to get the most ink for your money. Many printers, including Canon models, have regular ink cartridges that print about 200 pages, and XL ink cartridge that double the printing amount. Comparing them side by side, they offer the same print quality, but different prices and page output. Video of the Day Printing at home can save you money and time. Overall Comparison The biggest difference you will notice is price. Depending on the printer you have, for a regular Canon ink you could pay anywhere from $7 to $25 as of April 2011; and for the XL Canon ink, you are looking at $10 to $50. For the most part, the XL ink cartridge will be able to print at least double the pages of a regular cartridge. You will be able to find the maximum page yield on the package, or in the ink booklets that most stores will have in front of the ink. Regular The Canon regular ink cartridge lists the ink number and other important information, i.e. the color and the maximum page yield. For most canon printers, that is usually around 150 to 200 pages, depending on the model number."

But in just a few minutes, you can troubleshoot the problem cartridge and get your money's worth out of it. Preventative Measures Step 1Refill your cartridges promptly. Dried ink can clog the cartridge and harm its performance. Don't leave a cartridge empty for more than two days. If possible, refill your cartridges before they are completely empty."

I have an HP Laser Jet 400 for web/document printing. My question is if the instant ink service is worth it and what's the general opinion of DSLR members of the service.actions · 2014-Jun-9 9:41 am ·Hard Harry7join:2010-10-19 Narragansett, RI1 recommendation I don't know too much about that particular service, but I would imagine anything HP pushes is going to profit them more then the consumer. I find their software to be very intrusive about buying Ink, even to the point of not allowing you to print if it detects less ink then a company predetermined amount, even if there is still ink in the cartridge. That alone make me less then confident in their business practices. YMMVactions · 2014-Jun-9 9:53 am ·timcuth Braves Fan Premium Member join:2000-09-18 Pelham, ALto Iowa Cowboy I can only say that I recently bought a new printer.

It’s designed to separate you from your money with very little to no benefit. Sure, for a handful of people it works in their favor, but HP is not a charity and they are not stupid, they are in business to make money and I’m sure they did the math and saw this as a money making opportunity."

Even so, the size of the bill depends to a great extent on which brand of printer you buy. Some printer makers, like Kodak, work hard to keep their ink prices reasonable, while others, like Dell, consistently charge top dollar. When you look at as many inkjet printers and multifunction printers as I do--about 40 per year, representing about half of the total number of models currently available from major vendors--you start to see trends in ink pricing. I maintain a dynamic average of ink costs that shifts as I add new printers to the list and retire old ones. The averages have remained fairly stable over the past few years: For standard-size ink cartridges, which generally yield about 250 pages or less, the average price per page is about 4.8 cents for pages that use only black ink, and it's about 13.8 cents for prints that use all four colors. High-yield cartridges have more ink and print more pages--in some cases, thousands more pages--and like most bulk purchases, they cost less in the long run. The average costs for large, high-yield cartridges are about 3.4 cents per page for black and 10.4 cents for a page with all four colors. Kodak's Inks Remain the Cheapest Kodak's ink is one of the best deals on the market, regardless of the particular model you buy. For the $100 Kodak ESP C310 multifunction printer, for example, the cost of black ink works out to a very reasonable 3 cents per page, whether you're using the printer's standard-size or high-yield ink cartridges."

Saving money , having quality ink, getting as many prints or more from the same type of cartridge is the most important points or issues that can make or break your bank! The wrong non-oem inks can actually mess up your printer. I personally own a Kodak printer at this moment, but previously had an HP.

[ 1] Inkjet printers are the most commonly used type of printer, [2] and range from small inexpensive consumer models to expensive professional machines. The concept of inkjet printing originated in the 20th century, and the technology was first extensively developed in the early 1950s. Starting in the late 1970s, inkjet printers that could reproduce digital images generated by computers were developed, mainly by Epson, Hewlett-Packard (HP), and Canon. In the worldwide consumer market, four manufacturers account for the majority of inkjet printer sales: Canon, HP, Epson, and Brother. The emerging ink jet material deposition market also uses inkjet technologies, typically printheads using piezoelectric crystals, to deposit materials directly on substrates. The technology has been extended and the ″ink″ can now also comprise living cells, [3] for creating biosensors and for tissue engineering. There are two main technologies in use in contemporary inkjet printers: continuous (CIJ) and Drop-on-demand (DOD).

"text": "\"How do I Replace a Canon MP830 Ink Cartridge?by Jason Artman The Canon PIXMA MP830 is an inkjet printer that combines the features of an all-in-one office printer with those of a photo printer. The PIXMA MP830 includes a scanner that can scan or copy both sides of an original document simultaneously. It also includes a fax machine and incorporates a five-color ink system for vivid photos. If you find that documents or photos have blank lines or come out of the printer with a faded appearance, it may be time to change the ink cartridges.1Examine the screen on the front of the PIXMA MP830 to determine which ink cartridge (s) need to be replaced. The screen will display the message \"\"Ink has run out,\"\" and the graphic will show a picture of the empty ink cartridge (s).2Raise the center cover of the PIXMA MP830, including the scanner glass. The cover locks into place, allowing you to work without continuing to hold it.3Lower the paper tray in the front of the PIXMA MP830.4Push the plastic release lever in front of the ink cartridge to be replaced. This unlocks the ink cartridge.

It's also one of the first all-in-one printers that's eligible for HP's Instant Ink program, which allows consumers to pay for cartridges by subscription. However, the $149 all-in-one faces stiff competition from similarly priced competitors that offer better image quality and much faster scan speeds. Design Designed for the home rather than the office, the HP Envy 7640 has a raven black exterior that makes it look at home in either the office or the living room. At 19.8 x 7.9 x 7.6 inches and 16.9 pounds, it takes up less space than the Epson XP-820 (19.1 x 16.8 x 10.4 inches, 21.5 pounds) and the Canon Pixma MG7520 (17.2 x 14.6 x 5.9, 17 pounds). We particularly appreciated the Envy's large 3.5-inch touch screen, which is clear, bright and easy to use when paired with the printer's soft-touch navigation buttons. Since it lacks a dedicated numeric keypad, the Envy isn't the best choice for someone with heavy faxing needs. The HP Envy 7640 has a print tray that pulls out like a drawer, which is very secure but not completely removable from the device. During testing, we often found it necessary to pull out the cartridge to properly straighten a bundle of paper. The paper tray on the Envy 7640 holds 80 sheets, not nearly as many as the Brother MFC-J55620, which can hold more than 200."

It should work with any similar carriage type print head that forms an assembly of the individual cartridges and snaps out. The type printer that has all the color inks in one cartridge is probably completely different. I've never used one. I'd say if it is a user replaceable part and you're at the point of getting a new one anyway, try it. Over the past few years I've used this procedure on a dozen print heads of five different Canon printers using the BCI-6 or the CLI-8 cartridge and I've been able to clear the clogged ink jets every time . The carriages have a printed circuit board on them that you need to be careful not to damage. I refill all my own cartridges for my personal i P4200 and 6000D printers, and I've had plenty empty tanks to work with. At work we have two i9900 eight color printers (adding red and green to the six common inks) and we buy the BCI inks by the case. The CLI cartridge can be refilled too but the printer will not tell you when the ink gets low."

Greene's Second Edition Marine Science Textbook Marine Biology and Oceanography Learn Flashcards Write Spell Test Match Gravity Advertisement Upgrade to remove ads Sort Describe the importance of seaweeds in marine ecosystems Seaweeds play a major role in marine ecosystems. As the first organism in marine food chains, they provide nutrients and energy for animals - either directly when fronds are eaten, or indirectly when decomposing parts break down into fine particles and are taken up by filter-feeding animals How are marine algae adapted for carrying out photosynthesis? Every species of algae has chloroplasts, which contain pigments such as chlorophyll to absorb the light needed to carry out photosynthesis. Additionally, air bladders help keep some algae species upright in the water, so that it can absorb more of the sun's energy to carry out photosynthesis. In what ways are seaweeds important to people? A chemical in kelp called algin is used in many different industries. Algin is an important ingredient in various prepared foods, medicines, paints, and paper products Why do beach plants grow in the upper beach and not in the lower beach? These beach plants are found in an area called the upper beach. The area closer to the water, called the lower beach, does not have any plants. High tides and heavy surf make it very difficult for plants to take root in the sand along the lower beach."

"text": "\"Introduction to Dive Medicine DIVING MEDICINEDiving Medicine is a growing medical speciality that focuses on the study, diagnosis and treatment of illnesses related to changes in pressure and the undersea environment. This area is rapidly expanding its knowledge base as the popularity of diving and undersea exploration continues to explode. A primary focus of diving medicine is to assess individual \"\"Diving Fitness\"\". As more and more people take to the water, there is an increased need to safely prepare or assess ability to dive among patients with various disease states. Particularly, dive physicians must understand how various ENT, Eye, Heart, Pulmonary, Gastrointestinal, Bone and Joint, Hematologic, Endocrine and Metabolic disease states affect the ability to dive. In addition, dive physicians can offer recommendations for people about flying and altitude, physchology and drugs, dental work, women specific concerns, hazardous marine life, long term effects of diving and specific treatment modalities if an accident occurs. The primary accidents occuring in diving typically deal with effect pressure has on the various gases in your body. Most dive physicians treat patients for problems with equalizing pressure in their ears, sinus difficulties and of course barotrauma due to rapid ascension - \"\"the bends\"\". While these areas of dive medicine are perhaps most critical to understand in terms of patient care and treatment. I have chosen to speak on the more exotic, but rare, injuries from interactions with marine life."

Widespread in a wide variety of freshwater habitats from lowland to upper reaches. Longfin eels can penetrate considerable distances inland, as they have the ability to negotiate waterfalls and rapids by climbing over moist rocks. The national stocks of adult longfin eels in our rivers are reported to be in decline (Jellyman et al. 2000), and the conservation status of longfin eels are in human induced national decline (Hitchmough 2007). Distribution in the Styx River Identified in all tributaries of the Styx River, but rare or absent in shallow waters, or where there is little instream refuge (i.e. logs, overhanging banks)Biology Some aspects of its biology is well known. Like many freshwater eels in the world, longfin eels spawn at sea, returning to freshwater to grow (Mc Dowall 1990). In the natural state, New Zealand freshwater eels are relatively slow growing, and grow only 9-20 mm a year, and with considerable variation in growth rate between habitats and even individuals from the same habitat (Graynoth & Taylor 2004). This is thought to be due to food supplies (fish and invertebrates) limiting growth rates in natural environments. Tank experiments in controlled conditions demonstrate that growth rates can be considerably enhanced, even in cold temperatures, but only if sufficient food is provided (Graynoth & Taylor 2000)."

Plain of color, slimy of skin, devoid of jawline, and nightmarish of mouth, lamprey would handily lose an aquatic beauty pageant. Given their reputation as slimy, blood sucking parasites and invasive pests, they would also place poorly in the personality segment. Even a good result in the talent segment is likely out of their reach, for lamprey are poor swimmers. Whatever one thinks of the Pacific lamprey's looks and talents, scientists worry their extinction could mean game over for the recovery of Northwest salmon, which rely on lamprey as a food source. The tribes of the Columbia Basin, to whom the lamprey is an important food source and cultural icon, are one of the eel-like fish's only advocates.

It is key to know which fish can be eaten often, and which ones to cut down on, to avoid future health problems. The fish that are edible, are packed with vitamin A and vitamin D, and contain calcium that is good in making bones stronger. Fish are a healthy source of protein, and omega-3 fatty acids, that aid in keeping our health and heart in check. Not all fish can be eaten on a daily basis, and one must know which fish are okay to eat often, and which aren't. Fish and shellfish are two food items that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, minerals and vitamins. There are three types of fish that are edible - shellfish, white fish and oily fish. These contain omega-3 fatty acids, and can be eaten by pregnant women, or those that are breastfeeding, since it helps develop the baby's nervous system. White fish is a great source of omega 3 but not as much as oily fish. It's a great low-fat food that one can eat to even aid in weight loss."

"text": "What Do Turtles Eat? By Jessica Gomez Vet Technician Source There are several types of turtles you could own as a pet, including aquatic turtles such as the red-eared slider, box turtles and tortoises. Each of these turtles has different dietary needs and preferences, so the first step in keeping it healthy is to have it identified by an experienced veterinarian. Foods for Pet Turtles Depending on the species, turtles can be herbivores (eating only plants), carnivores (eating only meat) or omnivores (eating both plants and meat). Pet stores offer a range of turtle food products in pellets, sticks and chunks, formulated for different types of turtles and providing balanced nutrition with appropriate vitamins and minerals to keep the turtles healthy. However, this type of bland food is not the only thing turtles can eat, and it can be healthier and less expensive to offer turtles a range of fresh foods. Foods popular for pet turtles, depending on the species, include: Source Protein: Boiled eggs, mealworms, snails, crickets, earthworms Vegetables: Corn, beans, beets, carrots, peas, squash, yams Greens: Carrot tops, lettuce, collard greens, kale, spinach Fruits: Apples, grapes, strawberries, cantaloupe, banana, kiwi, mango, tomato Flowers: Geraniums, dandelions, petunias, lilies, carnations In addition to a range of foods and pet store supplements, offering pet turtles an additional source of calcium - necessary for a strong, healthy shell - is also a good idea. Crushed eggshells, oyster shells and cuttlebone are all fantastic calcium sources that you can add to your turtle's diet on a regular basis. Pet Turtle Feeding Tips The best diet for a pet turtle is one that is fresh and varied to provide a range of nutritional sources. Just like humans, turtles have individual tastes, and offering different foods will help keep the turtle well fed and happy."

I can summarize what I’ve learned from others, read, seen and think. There are holes and I’ll try to highlight those. There are controversial points others may debate. Ordinarily I don’t write articles with such gaping holes but the need for one on this topic justifies it, despite its incompleteness. To answer these questions, we’ll break it down into a discussion of what turtles are, general principles of herbivores, carnivores & omnivores, establish an environmental frame of reference, review dietary-related health concerns & lay out a basic dietary plan. Don’t miss the Resources section at the end; there’s great stuff out there you can read online for free, and the books are worth having. If you just want recommendations, go to Section X.)

"text": "When you're used to living with dogs and cats, getting a pet turtle means adjusting to a new routine. Turtles need a different kind of attention when it comes to housing them, keeping them clean and feeding them. Turtles don't typically need to be fed daily, but their feeding requirements vary depending on things like age and season. Youngsters Juvenile turtles are the ones who need the most frequent feeding. They need vitamin and calcium supplements about three times a week and should be fed every day. They're typically the most active during mornings and afternoons, so those are good times to feed your turtle. Turtles aren't considered adults before 7 years of age, but if your otherwise healthy turtle who is over 3 years old starts eating less or not at all every few days, it could be a sign that he is mature enough to reduce his feedings. Before cutting back though, talk to your vet. Always consult an experienced veterinarian regarding the health and treatment of your pet. Adults Mature pet turtles only need to be fed every other day or even only every third day."

Although numerous animals, from invertebrates to mammals, have evolved shells, none has an architecture like that of turtles. The turtle shell has a top ( carapace) and a bottom ( plastron ). The carapace and plastron are bony structures that usually join one another along each side of the body, creating a rigid skeletal box. This box, composed of bone and cartilage, is retained throughout the turtle’s life. Because the shell is an integral part of the body, the turtle cannot exit it, nor is the shell shed like the skin of some other reptiles.species of turtles Turtles (order Testudines). Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc. There are about 300 species of turtles living on land in all continents except Antarctica and in both salt water and fresh water. Tortoise s (family Testudinidae) live exclusively on land and have anatomic features distinguishing them from other turtles, but the term tortoise has long been used to refer to other terrestrial testudines as well, such as the box turtle and the wood turtle.

I was thinking of buying a turtle for my kids but i heard that turtles carry disease. and if you know, would they make good pets for 6-12 yearolds.2 following 25 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Turtles do carry diseases. They carry other contagions, as well, but salmonella is the most common one. These illnesses are called zoonoses and are found in many species. Turtles can still make great pets if you know what you're getting into. Simple hygiene with regular soap and hot water can keep you and your kids from getting sick from this. Salmonella is not something that comes from the urine - but it does get shed through the feces. This is why water turtles spread it more commonly than land torts - they swim in fouled water. Even so - you're more likely to contract salmonella through improperly handled chicken than from a turtle/tort."

You can read more information about each turtle by clicking on the blue name links. Besides sea turtles, there are only three species of native California turtles, and four non-natives which have established themselves with breeding populations in the state, mostly around populated areas. A turtle found in the wild in California may not be a native turtle or even one of the established non-natives seen here. In populated areas, especially in ponds and lakes in city parks, you will often find exotic turtles which have been released by irresponsible pet owners. These turtles may be similar in appearance to the turtles shown here. In order to identify them you will need a comprehensive guide to turtles of the world, since these pet turtles can originate from just about anywhere. When identifying a turtle here, it is good idea to start by looking at the California Turtles Range Maps to see which turtles occur in the area where the turtle was found. To compare the general appearance of all of the established California turtles, you can look at the California Turtles Photo Index. You can also start by looking at a few basic field marks that are found on some California turtles."

As long as you have a basking area and the proper lighting for the turtle...he will be fine. They come up out of the water when you are not watching as they can be very timid. I have 4 turtles and my RES sleeps under the water all the time. Your RES will come up when need be. Just keep an eye on the shell for any changes... Goldie-Owner of 4 Turtles Animal Maniac · 1 decade ago3 0 Comment Well, if you have a basking area for him and he's not basking, then yes it could be a problem because A) The basking area is too hot, or B) he is sick and you should take him to the vet ASAP. If his shell becomes soft, then yes, this is a bad thing, and staying in the water without drying off can lean to shell rot. Try taking him out for a while and putting him in the sun to help dry him, but don't leave him out for too long. Just keep an eye on him for a few more days and if he still doesn't come up to bask, then take him to the vet."

Their red “ear” patch, located just behind the eye, distinguishes them from other similarly sized turtles such as the Western Painted Turtle, and the Western Pond Turtle . In addition to its red “ear”, the face and neck are marked with yellow stripes. The smooth, dark carapace (upper shell) of the Red-eared Slider commonly is decorated with darker lines and swirls, and patches of white, yellow or red. The plastron (shell covering the belly) is yellow, and can be marked with dark blotches. In addition to their splashes and stripes of colour, males also sport long, curved claws, which they use to woo females during courtship. A medium-sized turtle, Sliders reach a maximum length of 28 cm. Baby Sliders (hatchlings) are quarter-sized (2 to 3.5 cm long), bright green and round. Yellow patterns decorate the carapace, and the skin of the legs, head, and neck is lined with fine yellow-green to dark green markings. Click here to visit the Red-eared Slider Photo Gallery.

"text": "\"The scientific name for the Red-eared Slider is Chrysemys scripta elegans (formerly Trachemys scripta elegans ), and it belongs to the Emydidae family. It is an aquatic turtle, a strong swimmer, and in the wild, will commonly be seen basking on rocks, logs, or other surfaces above the water. Turtles are reptiles, and cold-blooded, so they must rely on external heat sources for warmth. They will bask in sunlight, and in the wild, burrow down into the earth to hibernate in winter. The three main concerns in keeping a Red-eared Slider healthy are warmth, clean water, and proper diet. Properly caring for a turtle is more complicated than most people think. An adult, not a child, must take primary responsibility for maintaining and cleaning the housing, feeding, and monitoring the turtle for any signs of illness. Natural environment The normal range for the Red-eared Slider in the United States is from Illinois to the Gulf of Mexico, and the East Coast to western Texas. It has been found in other regions, presumably because people released their pet turtles into those areas. It spends most of its time in or around water."

The RES is only one of the 4 subspecies (the others are the Yellow-bellied, Cumberland & Big Bend sliders) making up the single species we call the Slider. The body form is ‘classic basking turtle’ style, with an oval body form (circular in hatchlings), mildly domed on top & flat-bottomed, blunt head with peripherally-placed eyes & a blunt snout, feet with webbed (& clawed) toes & a small tail. The shell has an internal bony foundation on which are overlaid keratin (like your fingernails are made of) plates called scutes. The shell includes a mildly to moderately domed carapace (upper shell) & a hingeless plastron (lower shell); the turtle can withdraw into the shell but the shell cannot close at all (RES rely on deep water for protection; on land they're vulnerable to predators like raccoons). The carapace is smooth ( note: captives reared too fast with excess dietary protein may have raised scutes (a 'bumpy' carapace) with concentric rings. This is termed pyramiding ). In hatchlings the carapace & skin start out a bright green; the lateral carapace scute pattern is similar to a green fingerprint with lined whorls, & the skin is striped. Behind the eyes are the classic jelly bean-shaped patches from which this subspecies takes its name (but they aren't the ears). The plastron is a bland yellow with black spots or smudges."

Had the electrician who wired the house come out - he says house is fine; power from street is 136v - too high - that's why I'm burning out light bulbs, and the grinder got fried as soon as plugged in. House is less than 1 yr old. Does this make any sense?rpxlpx08:33AM | 02/18/05Member Since: 03/13/001675 lifetime posts You should now call the power company. If the voltage they provide is really too high, they should fix it."

"text": "\"World Electricity Standards Link to original web page: http://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity.htm There is no standard mains voltage throughout the world and also the frequency, i.e. the number of times the current changes direction per second, is not everywhere the same. Moreover, plug shapes, plug holes, plug sizes and sockets are also different in many countries. Those seemingly unimportant differences, however, have some unpleasant consequences. Most appliances bought overseas simply cannot be connected to the wall outlets at home. There are only two ways to solve this problem: you just cut off the original plug and replace it with the one that is standard in your country, or you buy an unhandy and ugly adapter. While it is easy to buy a plug adapter or a new \"\"local\"\" plug for your \"\"foreign\"\" appliances, in many cases this only solves half the problem, because it doesn't help with the possible voltage disparity. A 110-volt electrical appliance designed for use in North America or Japan will provide a nice fireworks display - complete with sparks and smoke - if plugged into a European socket. It goes without saying that the lack of a single voltage, frequency and globally standardized plugs entail many extra costs for manufacturers and increase the burden on the environment. Pure waste and unnecessary pollution!Voltage and frequency Plugs and sockets What do I need to use my appliances abroad ? Why can only “electric” appliances be used with a converter, and not “electronic” ones ?"

The item most of us suspect first is the heating element (see common Whirlpool elements below), but there are several other items on the dryer and one item that is not on the dryer that can produce the same symptom. You will save time, energy, and money if you will take a few moments to prove exactly which part is bad before purchasing a replacement part. The one item that is not on the dryer is a blown circuit breaker (located in your home’s main circuit breaker box). The dryer will turn if it is getting 110 volts, but it must be receiving 220 volts to heat. Many dryer circuits have two circuit breakers installed to power the dryer. A lightning strike nearby or power surge can cause one breaker to blow and not the other. Resetting the circuit breaker fixes the dryer and you did not even get your hands dirty. A blown circuit breaker happens often enough to make it the first item we recommend checking when a dryer turns but does not heat. It is always fun to get an easy fix."

Whether you're adding an electrical outlet to an existing finished space, upgrading an outlet for a more robust use, or adding outlets to unfinished space, there are a variety of costs you should take into consideration. Typical Costs of Adding an Electrical Outlet Standard 120-volt outlets: It will cost approximately $100 to install a 120-volt outlet off of a nearby circuit. Installing a new 120-volt circuit on an electrical panel will run you about $185. GFCI outlets: About $120 (Areas that are more prone to moisture buildup like bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms need ground fault circuit interrupter, or GFCI, outlets). Heavy-duty 220 or 240-volt outlets: $300 or more for an outlet running off of a nearby outlet; $600 or more to upgrade the existing panel, which includes adding a 220 to 240 volt circuit, running the conduit, and installing a new receptacle. Low-End Estimate for Adding an Electrical Outlet Adding a standard 120-volt outlet to an existing circuit starts at approximately $100 when installed by a professional electrician . High-End Estimate for Adding an Electrical Outlet To add a 240-volt outlet to accommodate major household appliances, a professional installation can cost $600 or more."

If you have a four wire pigtail (open ended wires) hanging off the oven then you simply need to connect the green and white wires together and direct wire it to the three wire box.

When it comes to electricity, especially in your case, I would recommend having a licensed electrician look at your wiring that leads from the outdated fuse panel to the outlet that you are looking to replace. It's possible that your wiring might need replacing due to the amount of amperage going through it. Over time the insulation can become brittle, or if you have aluminum wire instead of copper that can also pose a problem. You don't want to risk your safety if the wiring cannot the new stresses of a new stove, not to mention the possible damage to the stove, and you already mentioned the burners work but rest of it doesn't, that to me would be an indication of a possible problem with the wiring, or power source."

The burners will most likely be 240V. By keeping the range at 240 volts it will use less amps that at 120V. Say a range and oven is rated at 9000 watts. Watts = amps x volts. 9000/240V = 37.5 amps. 9000/120V = 75 amps. As you can see at 120 volts the amperage is double over 240 volts."

The adapter for the Type C outlet is our item # EA9C and the adapter for the Type F outlet is our item # EA9. While dual-voltage travel models are available, most hair dryers, curling irons, hair straighteners / flat irons and other bathroom appliances are generally only compatible with a single voltage. In the case of the US and Canada, that would be 120 volts, and therefore the voltage would need to be changed from 220-240 volts at the outlet, to 120 volts at the plug. That requires a voltage converter, such as our item # PB1650, plus an EA9C or EA9 adapter to allow the voltage converter to plug into the Type C or Type F wall outlet. Other conventional appliances which are not multi-voltage compatible would require a step-down voltage transformer, with a wattage capacity that is sufficient to support the wattage requirement of the appliance. Details Reviews Wall outlets in the Republic of Serbia are Type C (CEE 7/16 Europlug) and Type F (CEE 7/4 Schuko) and supply electricity at 230 volts AC / 50 Hz frequency. Chances are you're reading this because you're traveling there from the United States or Canada and are bringing things that will need to be plugged in there.

Sometimes standard diagnostic tests can't determine whether someone is dealing with a suspected brain dysfunction or psychological condition. This is when neuropsychology steps in. A neuropsychologist uses a different series of tests to evaluate cognitive and psychological factors that could be contributing to anything from depression or anxiety to memory loss or attention difficulties. While not a prerequisite, many neuropsychologists hold doctorates in neuropsychology or clinical neuropsychology. Because of the three to seven years of additional training, salaries are typically higher than those of a \"\"standard\"\" psychologist, and even higher with years of experience. Salary Overview As of 2011, the average psychologist earned just over $73,000 a year, reports the Bureau of Labor Statistics. But high salaries can sometimes skew the average, and median wage is often a better indication of a psychologist’s earnings. Half of all people working in this profession made $67,880 a year.

Pediatric neuropsychology is a medically-related specialty concerned with the study of brain-behavior relationships in children and adolescents. Who Practices Pediatric Neuropsychology? A pediatric neuropsychologist is a Ph. D. fellowship–trained psychologist with expertise in how learning and behavior are associated with the development of brain structures and systems. A pediatric neuropsychologist uses standardized tests and observes behavior to define a child’s pattern of cognitive development and to compare performance with other children at the same developmental stage. The pediatric neuropsychologist may work in many different settings and may have different roles in the care of the child: May act as a case manager who follows the child over time to adjust recommendation for the child’s changing needs. Can provide treatment, such as cognitive rehabilitation, behavior management, family therapy or psychotherapy. Usually works closely with the physician to manage the child’s problems. Some pediatric neuropsychologists also work closely with the schools to help provide appropriate educational programs for the child."

Neurology is a medical specialty that focuses on diagnosing and treating diseases and disorders of the nervous system, including the central nervous system (brain) and peripheral nervous system (spinal cord and the nerves of the body). Physicians who specialize in neurology go through years of rigorous training in order to be able to recognize and address nervous system disorders. There are several types of neurology doctors: Neurologists focus on diagnosing and treating diseases, disorders, and injuries of the brain and nervous system Neurosurgeons perform delicate interventional procedures on the brain and nerves. Neuro-psychiatrists specialize in psychological and psychiatric symptoms, such as sudden impulsiveness or declining memory, that relate to physiological processes in the brain. Neurologists: Neurology Doctors Who Are Expert Diagnosticians A neurologist is specially trained to identify, diagnose, recognize, and treat disorders of the nervous system. There are many, many things that can go wrong with the brain and the peripheral nervous system, some of which are quite rare, specific, or obscure. Neurology is widely considered to be one of the most challenging medical subspecialties, albeit one of the most fascinating. In a typical exam, a neurologist will generally give a patient an exam that assesses their mental status, cranial nerve functions, coordination, reflexes, and sensation. This information can help determine the existence, location, and nature of a deficit related to the nervous system."

I was just wondering exactly what defines one as being a consultant, as opposed to a typical CP? Is it experience, because the pay seems to be slightly better? It seems to differ from consultants in the medical profession - since all fully trained doctors are considered to be consultants in their field of specialisation.

There is no consensus on a definition of mild traumatic brain injury, and no symptom complex that demonstrates diagnostic specificity for mild traumatic brain injury. Overdiagnosis of mild traumatic brain injury is possible when using the definition adopted by the American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine and may result in iatrogenic morbidity: that is, production of symptoms de novo by well-meaning medical and nonmedical personnel. The use of symptom checklists and the overreliance on subjective complaints alone may also result in misdiagnosis. In their article “Early interventions for mild traumatic brain injury: Reflections on experience,” Dr Dhawan and colleagues [ 1] have correctly stated that one difficulty in identifying and reporting mild traumatic brain injury involves the many definitions used. Mention is made of the definition proposed by the Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Committee of the American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine. This committee, chaired by Thomas Kay, neuropsychologist and senior contributor, consisted of seven psychologists, five physiatrists, one registered nurse, and one registered clinical counselor. There were no neurologists, no neurosurgeons, and no psychiatrists on the committee. ["

Strokes can cause language disturbances, coordination or balance difficulties, confusion, or sensory loss. Though physiologically based, many people are reluctant to discuss these unseen difficulties, which can hamper function and complicate interactions. A stroke, or cerebrovascular accident (CVA), occurs when blood supply to part of the brain is disrupted, causing brain cells to die. The most common cause of a stroke is blockage of an artery in the brain by a clot (thrombosis), usually stemming from a buildup of plaque caused by high blood pressure, cholesterol, obesity, or other risk factors related to heart disease. Hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel breaks and leaks blood in or around the brain. An embolism, or embolic infarct, occurs when a blood clot travels through the bloodstream and lodges in a blood vessel in the brain. “Mini” strokes called TIAs may not cause any lasting symptoms but they can still damage brain tissue and be a sign of bigger problems to come, explained Simon Tan, Psy D ABPP-CN, a Stanford neuropsychologist, at a presentation sponsored by the Stanford Stroke Support Group. “The symptoms of a stroke relate to its location,” said Dr. Tan. “ The effects depend on which part of the brain has been affected."

"text": "In this article Overview Relationship to other disease factors Recognition and testing Treatment (cognitive rehabilitation)Research on cognition Additional resources Overview“Cognitive” means of or relating to “cognition” — which refers to a range of high-level brain functions including the ability to learn and remember information, organize, plan and problem-solve, focus, maintain and shift attention, understand and use language, accurately perceive the environment, and perform calculations. Cognitive changes are a common symptom of MS — more than half of all people with MS will develop problems with cognition. For some, it may even be the first symptom of MS. Certain functions are more likely to be affected than others: Information processing (dealing with information gathered by the five senses)Memory (acquiring, retaining and retrieving new information)Attention and concentration (particularly divided attention)Executive functions (planning and prioritizing)Visuospatial functions (visual perception and constructional abilities)Verbal fluency (word-finding)A person may experience difficulties in only one or two areas of cognitive functioning or in several. Certain functions including general intellect, long-term (remote) memory, conversational skill and reading comprehension are likely to remain intact. Most people who experience changes in cognitive function can use compensatory strategies and tools to help them function effectively. However, cognitive dysfunction is one of the major causes of early departure from the workforce. In very rare instances, cognitive dysfunction may become so severe that the person can no longer function independently. Relationship to other disease factors Cognitive problems are weakly related to other disease characteristics — meaning that a person with almost no physical limitations can have significant cognitive impairment, while a person who is quite disabled physically can be unaffected cognitively. Changes can occur at any time — even as a first symptom of MS — but are more common later in the disease."

For further information regarding the field of neuropsychology, read on. Schools offering Anatomy & Physiology degrees can also be found in these popular choices . Neuropsychology Defined According to the American Psychological Association's Division of Clinical Neuropsychology, neuropsychologists study how brain functions are related to behavior. If a patient has had a traumatic experience that may have altered his or her behavior and/or cognition, or if the patient is thought to have a mental illness or learning disorder, he or she may undergo neuropsychological testing. The procedures assess a patient's intelligence, memory, attention span, organizational skills, language, emotions and behavior. If underlying neurological problems are found, patients may be treated through counseling and rehabilitative procedures while receiving other necessary medical care.

"text": "A clinical neuropsychologist is a medical professional educated in diagnosing, treating, and helping patients manage a host of brain-related dysfunctions or injuries as applied to the patient's ability to function during normal life activities. The field of neuropsychology is a complex type of clinical psychology that places emphasis on the brain and nervous system and studies how they affect daily interactions and functions; this field also provides therapy designed to assist patients in finding more effective ways to navigate everyday life. These highly trained professionals have many different types of evaluation tools and tests they perform to find the exact neuropsychological problem from which a patient is suffering. In clinical neuropsychology, a trained professional will see a wide variety of patients with unique neurocognitive deficits. In neuropsychology, there are several types of tests or evaluations given to those experiencing the symptoms of possible brain injury or other kinds of neurocognitive deficits. Each evaluation is designed to allow the clinical neuropsychologist the opportunity to discover the patient's brain and nervous system connection as well as to note any apparent dysfunction. Before testing is started, the neuropsychologist will spend some time with the patient during an in-depth interview and design a specialized battery of tests. This helps ensure the patient isn't overtaxed the day of the evaluation and that the psychologist has a good point of reference from which to work. Ad The information gleaned from these evaluations is crucial for the clinical neuropsychologist to begin to construct treatment and therapy plans for the patient. Some vital pieces of information found in these reports include examples of the patient's long- and short-term memory abilities as well as his or her attention and concentration functions."

It's hard to prove a negative. “They’re not really measuring adult neurogenesis,” says Fred Gage from the Salk Institute.

"text": "PLM vs. PPM: What’s the Difference? Published April 26, 2011 By Patrick Tickle I recently commented on a blog post written by Chad Jackson of Lifecycle Insights that raised a question on the difference between PLM applications and PPM applications. It sparked an interesting debate amongst several folks in the industry. Here’s my point of view on PLM vs PPM: PLM — Product Lifecycle Management — lives more in the design and engineering aspects of the product development lifecycle, which are at the core of the PLM value proposition. The Product Portfolio Management, or PPM, aspect is essential as it relates to improving product innovation, especially in the areas of understanding the front-end of the pipeline, optimizing the portfolio, building credible capacity plans and product roadmaps, and then managing effective project execution. This comprehensive approach really helps product development teams maximize their capacity to innovate with their inherently constrained resources. Both PLM and PPM can take an end-to-end approach — it just depends on what “ends” you’re focused on — and bringing the two together is vital, especially for complex manufacturing-type product organizations. PLM operates at the engineering execution platform level, managing detailed processes and the exponential number of design and engineering artifacts required to bring complex products to market. PPM operates closer to the business dimensions of the organization by focusing on managing demand versus resources, tying the total cost of development of new products (and more on that below), as well as maintaining existing products with revenue and margin those products create. About “total cost of development,” note that, from the Planview perspective, this does include all work."

"text": "Home » Sleep Disorders » Restless Legs Syndrome What is Restless Legs Syndrome? Restless legs syndrome is a disorder of the nervous system that often begins in childhood, is chronic, and typically progressive, and more often affects women and those of Northern European descent in which patients experience a compelling urge to move their legs that worsens with inactivity, is relieved by movement or counter stimuli, and that is most aggravating in the evening and at night. The seminal description of RLS in 1945 by Ekbom noted additional key features: 1) a high prevalence (≥ 5%); 2) some patients who perceive RLS sensations as pain; 3) a proclivity to affect pregnant women; 4) heritability; and 5) favorable responses to iron supplementation. A second advance came with recognition that periodic leg movements in sleep (PLMs) are present nearly all RLS subjects. A third major advance has come with demonstration that drugs acting at brain dopamine receptors, opiates, and derivatives of gabapentin relieve both the sensory (RLS), and motor (PLMs) symptoms. A fourth advance has been demonstration of reductions in brain iron in some RLS cases. The fifth seminal advance has been identification that multiple genes account for the majority of one’s risk for RLS and PLMs."

"text": "Sleep and Parkinson's Disease Sleep and Parkinson's Disease Introduction/Background Sleep-Wake Cycle Sleep is characterized by two alternating phases, rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREM). These phases are defined by brain wave activity, muscle activity, and eye movements. As people start to fall asleep they enter into the lightest of the four stages of NREM sleep, Stage 1. As sleep continues, people descend into the deeper states of sleep down through Stages 2 and 3. Then, people move back up through these stages and enter a REM episode. When people are awakened during REM sleep, they often report having been dreaming. Circadian Rhythms This term refers to things that occur rhythmically roughly every 24 hours. The sleep-wake cycle is one of the most obvious of our body’s circadian rhythms. Other circadian rhythms include body temperature and secretion of many hormones. These rhythms are controlled by a time-keeping mechanism (or clock) in our brains."

"text": "\"This are my thoughts on the likely implications of a large proportion of the population consuming mu opioid receptor (MOR) antagonists continually, every day, typically for decades. The first likely outcome is that the body would up-regulate the production of endogenous opioids in the bloodstream and/or the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Whatever the complex mechanisms are behind these background levels, flooding the body with any level of opioid receptor antagonists would make all the MORs more difficult to activate. This includes the MORs which (I assume) are located on the cells which produce the background levels of endogenous opioids. These are \"\"autoreceptors\"\" which provide local negative feedback to regulate the cells' endogenous opioid production; likewise the autoreceptors of the neurons which produce short-term, more localized, outputs of endogenous opioids. Endogenous opioids are used in the body both for long-range communication, where the compounds move large distances from the site of release to the receptors, and for more synapse-like communication, where they are released very close to the receptors. These systems don't have a clear-cut distinction, since any kind of release of these compounds may cause a general increase in the background levels, and so affect opioid receptors elsewhere in the body. I would expect the reduced activation of these autoreceptors to result in an increased output of endogenous opioids, until the levels of endogenous opioids became high enough to largely overcome the antagonism due to the coffee compounds. Likewise, I would expect the neurons which produce endogenous opioids in a more localized and shorter-term fashion also to produce greater quantities. If everything were fairly simple, the body would largely adapt to the continual presence of these MOR antagonists."

"text": "\"Home » Sleeping Giants » Sleep Disorders and the Workforce » Intrinsic Sleep Disorders Intrinsic Sleep Disorders INTRINSIC SLEEP DISORDERSPSYCHOPHYSIOLOGICAL AND IDIOPATHIC INSOMNIAInsomnia refers to the perception of insufficient sleep. This can be related to a difficulty initiating sleep, a difficulty staying asleep or the perception that the sleep quality is poor or insufficient. This condition is more commonly reported by women than men, and is more prevalent as the population ages. Insomnia can be acute (less than a month in duration) or chronic (greater than 6 months duration) or somewhere in-between. Acute or transient insomnia is estimated to occur in about 15% of the population. Acute insomnia is often associated with physical or emotional stresses as causative factors. Psychophysiological insomnia, also known as \"\"conditioned arousal\"\" or \"\"learned\"\" insomnia, occurs when the individual associates various environmental or lifestyle stimuli with an inability to sleep. Idiopathic insomnia is a life-long innate tendency to sleep poorly. It is helpful to understand insomnia using a framework of the three \"\"P's\"\": predisposing factors, precipitating factors and perpetuating factors. Predisposing factors are the innate tendencies towards being a poor sleeper."

"text": "Saa S PLM – Can it Really be Successful? Posted On August 18, 2009 By Michael Craffey In Product Lifecycle Management, Systems Management Recently, Razorleaf was asked to develop a proposal that would deliver PLM as a managed service, kind of like Saa S ( Software-as-a-Service ). One way to offer PLM as a managed service is pure Saa S (like Arena Solutions ). If you’re not familiar with Arena, think of Sales Force.com or Gmail. Another way to offer PLM as a managed service is to take traditional PLM software and host it in an off-premise environment where it can be managed by a third party. That’s the option we pursued for this client. For smaller, leaner organizations, the idea of building up PLM infrastructure (that’s hardware, software, and personnel) is daunting AND time consuming. But what if a service provider could stand-up that environment and manage it remotely, enabling your people to focus on their jobs without worrying about software versions and upgrades. In our case, the solution involved a hosting company and a physical Microsoft Windows Server to house the PLM software and provide terminal services so users could login and use the PLM environment. This type of solution is not for every environment, but offers some significant benefits for small workgroups."

You are unable to control them. They usually do not keep you from falling asleep. Instead, they severely disrupt your sleep during the night. This can cause you to be very tired during the day. They do not involve a change in body position, stretching a muscle, or a cramp. Instead, the movements tend to involve the tightening or flexing of a muscle. They occur most often in the lower legs. They can occur at two different times: Periodic limb movements while you sleep (PLMS)Periodic limb movements while you are awake (PLMW)PLMS are much more common.

PLM Attorneys Criminal Defense, Florida Laws, Legal Advice 0An “ordinance” is a municipal law, rule, or regulation that applies to a specific town or city limits. Because each city has their own set of ordinances, the different violations can be very broad. For example, ordinances can range from forbidding unleashed dogs while not on private property to forbidding open containers of alcohol in city parks. Did you receive a citation or fine for a City or Local Ordinance Violation? Discuss your legal options, call us at 727-478-4125 or schedule your free consultation with an attorney through our website. Local and City Ordinance Violations Examples Because ordinances vary by city, there are numerous examples of potential ordinance violations. Here are a few examples of local ordinance violations found in various counties in the state of Florida.– Consuming Alcohol in Prohibited Areas – Nuisance Abatement – Commercial Use of Right of Way – Inoperative/Unlicensed Vehicles – County Park Violations – Noise Violations – Animal Control Violation – Overgrown Grass – Illegal Burning Check out our blog New Port Richey Ordinances You Need to Know for information about New Port Richey’s local ordinances Consequences of Violating an Ordinance Just like ordinances differ from county to county, the punishments differ as well.

There are two types of buffalo: the African or Cape buffalo and the Asian water buffalo. They are dark gray or black animals that look a lot like bulls. Buffalo are often confused with bison. Early American settlers called bison \"\"buffalo\"\" because the animals are similar in appearance. However, while bison are also bovines (a subfamily of bovids), they are in a different genus from true buffalo. Other bovines include domestic cattle, oxen, yaks, four-horned antelopes, bongos and kudus, according to the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS). Size The water buffalo is the largest bovine. It is 8 to 9 feet (2.4 to 2.7 meters) from head to rump with its tail adding an extra 2 to 3.3 feet (60 to 100 centimeters).

So what’s to talk about? In fact, two South Asian activists I interviewed both felt that they had not experienced any overt racism in the animal rights (AR) movement. Yet, like the peace and environmental movements, the AR movement is predominantly white and middle class. Andrew Rowan, a VP at the Humane Society of the U. S., said surveys indicate the AR movement is “less than three percent” people of color. In April, 316 people from over 20 states attended the first Grassroots AR Conference in NYC, but the people of color caucus numbered only eight. If no one is racist, why is the movement largely segregated?"

Lions are social animals, living in groups called prides. A pride consists of several related females and their children, and a couple of males.

What separates fried chicken from other fried forms of chicken is that generally the chicken is cut at the joints, and the bones and skin are left intact. Crisp well-seasoned skin, rendered of excess fat, is a hallmark of well made fried chicken. The first dish known to have been deep fried was fritters, which were popular in the Middle Ages."

Bil tong , meat that is dried, salted, and spiced (similar to jerky), and biscuits (dried sweetened biscuits, like zwieback or rusks) were popular food among the original pioneers and are both still enjoyed by twenty-first century South Africans.

A Mission for the Future…In Changing Planet Tags Explorers Journal, Steve Boyes March 28, 2012 12 Comments Steve Boyes“Wilderness”… What does this mean to the modern human being? Why should we value it in our day and age? Why is it there? Is option value enough for people, who will never see it, to protect it? The ambiguity of our relationship with wilderness was illustrated very well by Roderick Nash: “On one hand, “wilderness” is inhospitable, alien, mysterious, and somewhat threatening. On the other, beautiful, friendly, and capable of elevating and delighting us”. The preservation of wilderness areas that are undisturbed and truly “wild” is imperative, not only for future generations, but also for the landscapes themselves. The wild plant and animal communities dependent on these ecosystems did not arise through “sustainable management” or conservation interventions, but rather through millions of years of natural selection and evolution in the absence of modern man."

July 18, 2014 by Karen Hill | Filed Under: History Native Americans gave the troops the name, probably because they hadn’t seen many African Americans and thought the soldiers’ short, dark, curly hair resembled the mane of the buffalo. The name was thought to be a sign of respect because the buffalo was an important animal to the Indians. The name originated with the Cheyenne warriors in the winter of 1867, says the Buffalo Soldiers National Museum, the Cheyenne translation being “Wild Buffalo. ”The term Buffalo Soldiers became a generic term for all African-American soldiers, and is still in use today for units that trace their direct lineage back to the 9th and 10th Cavalry regiments formed in 1866.

Both are enormous shaggy animals with humped backs. The American species is an animal of the open plains whereas the European prefers thick woodland and forest. Both have come close to extinction in the past but are now protected in parks and reserves in their respective countries.

Though not nearly as numerous or as widespread as kudu, impala, or warthog, this week’s African animal is the most common species of “The Big 5” in Africa: the Cape buffalo. Popularized by the many “ charge” videos that abound on the internet, the Cape buffalo is probably best known for being an incredibly tough and aggressive animal. The buffalo presents a very challenging adversary on a hunt and many hunters find that few other animals are as satisfying to hunt after having matched wits with the Cape buffalo. Not surprisingly, the buffalo is one of the most sought-after trophies by hunters in Africa. Cape Buffalo Description Scientific Name: Syncerus caffer, also known as “mbogo” or “nyati. ”The Cape buffalo is a very large, stocky, and powerful species of bovine that inhabits the savannas and grasslands of eastern and southern Africa.

Learning points If alkaline phosphatase is raised in an asymptomatic patient and serum bilirubin, liver transaminases, creatinine, adjusted calcium, thyroid function, and blood count are normal: Consider growth spurts in adolescents, pregnancy in women, drugs, and age related increases As most likely sources are either bone or liver, differentiate by measuring γ-glutamyltransferase (raised in liver) and investigate accordingly For liver cases investigate with abdominal ultrasound scan (cholestasis and hepatic space occupying lesion) and antimitochondrial antibodies (primary biliary cirrhosis)For bone cases investigate vitamin DA 51 year old asymptomatic woman presented to her general practitioner for cascade screening for familial hypercholesterolaemia. Blood tests revealed a normal full blood count, renal function, thyroid function, lipid profile, glucose levels, bone profile, and liver profile except for an isolated increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) concentration at 171 U/L (reference interval 30-130). What is the next investigation? ALP is found in high concentrations in liver, bone, kidney, intestine, and placenta. In adults, circulating ALP is predominantly of hepatic and bony origin. Serum ALP levels increase in pregnancy and by the third trimester can be twofold to fourfold higher as a result of a physiological increase in placental ALP. Reference intervals are age and sex related, gradually increasing from age 40 to 65 years, especially in women, and can be up to threefold to sevenfold higher in rapidly growing adolescents. 1 Reference intervals contain 95% of the population, therefore 2.5% of the normal population have values above the upper reference limit. The combined analytical and biological variation for serum ALP is around 8%, 1 2 and levels increase by up to 6% if analysis is delayed for 96 hours in samples stored at room temperature."

It tends to be seasonal, and causes headaches, chills, blocked nose, muscle pains, cough, and sore throat. Influenza symptoms are more intense and tend to last longer than the regular flu or cold. Influenza is of two types: Type A and Type B. Much like other respiratory air or water borne diseases, influenza is also contagious. Typically, an influenza Type A virus infection in a family could lead to a dominant outbreak of Type A in that particular season. However, this isn't a hard and fast rule, and at times there are a mix of Type A and B viruses in the community. Reasons for Influenza Tests The doctor orders an influenza test to detect whether the patient has influenza, and its type, if present. The test is also undertaken to chalk out a treatment plan. At times the influenza test is ordered to check if the flu has spread in the neighborhood. When to go for this test When you display flu-like symptoms, especially in the flu season, the then doctor orders an influenza test."

An enzyme is something that helps speed up a chemical reaction in your body. This blood test measures the amount of alkaline phosphatase in the blood. Why do I need it? This is a test to help caregivers see how well your bones are healing or growing, and how your liver is working. The amount of alkaline phosphatase in your blood may go up if you have a bone problem such as a fracture, bone cancer or Paget's disease.

Any opinions, findings, conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of UK Essays. The objective of this experiment is to determine the buffering region of histidine monohydrochloride by titrating histidine with a base, Na OH. By plotting a suitable graph, the p Ka values of histidine can be observed. Normally, a titration curve is constructed to illustrate the relationship between the p H of the mixture and the number of moles of base added to it. However in this experiment, the graph of p H against the number of moles of Na OH per mole of histidine is plotted. This is to ensure that the graph is independent of the volume and concentrations of the solutions used. After determining the p Ka values of histidine, the maximal buffering capacity of the histidine-Na OH mixture, as well as the effective buffering range can be determined.

Liver Function Tests Definition Liver function tests, or LFTs, include tests for bilirubin, a breakdown product of hemoglobin, andammonia, a protein byproduct that is normally converted into urea by the liver before beingexcreted by the kidneys. LFTs also commonly include tests to measure levels of severalenzymes, which are special proteins that help the body break down and use (metabolize) othersubstances. Enzymes that are often measured in LFTs include gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT); alanine aminotransferase (ALT or SGPT); aspartate aminotransferase (AST or SGOT);and alkaline phosphatase (ALP).

"text": "Elevated Alkaline Phosphatase in Dogs Dogs are susceptible to a number of health problems, of which liver diseases are most frequent. Examining for elevated alkaline phosphatase in dogs is considered as a reliable approach for confirming liver and bone abnormalities. To know more about canine alkaline phosphatase levels, read on... Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) encompasses a group of enzymes, mainly secreted by the liver and bone, which are active in a non-acidic (alkaline) phase. Other body parts that are responsible for the production of alkaline phosphatase are kidney, placenta, and the intestinal lining. By elevated alkaline phosphatase, we mean that the amount of ALP is higher than the recommended levels. Similar to humans, elevated alkaline phosphatase in dogs can be related to certain health problems. Causes The exact reasons for elevated alkaline phosphatase in pet dogs are not known as yet. In majority of cases, this abnormality is related to liver problems and bone diseases. It is estimated that a pet dog showing very high amounts of ALP has more than 50 percent chances of developing liver and bone diseases. The prime causes of increased ALP are underlying diseases, medicinal side effects, and being young dogs."

"text": "Alkaline Phosphatase ALKALINE PHOSPHATASEAlkaline Phosphatases are a group of enzymes found primarily the liver (isoenzyme ALP-1) and bone (isoenzyme ALP-2). There are also small amounts produced by cells lining the intestines (isoenzyme ALP-3), the placenta, and the kidney (in the proximal convoluted tubules). What is measured in the blood is the total amount of alkaline phosphatases released from these tissues into the blood. As the name implies, this enzyme works best at an alkaline p H (a p H of 10), and thus the enzyme itself is inactive in the blood. Alkaline phosphatases act by splitting off phosphorus (an acidic mineral) creating an alkaline p H. The primary importance of measuring alkaline phosphatase is to check the possibility of bone disease or liver disease. Since the mucosal cells that line the bile system of the liver are the source of alkaline phosphatase, the free flow of bile through the liver and down into the biliary tract and gallbladder are responsible for maintaining the proper level of this enzyme in the blood. When the liver, bile ducts or gallbladder system are not functioning properly or are blocked, this enzyme is not excreted through the bile and alkaline phosphatase is released into the blood stream. Thus the serum alkaline phosphatase is a measure of the integrity of the hepatobiliary system and the flow of bile into the small intestine. In addition to liver, bile duct, or gallbladder dysfunction, an elevated serum alkaline phosphatase can be due to rapid growth of bone since it is produced by bone-forming cells called osteoblasts. One would expect that growing children have higher levels than full-grown adults."

"text": "What Causes Low Alkaline Phosphatase?by NATALIE STEIN Aug. 14, 2017Alkaline phosphatase -- commonly abbreviated as ALP -- is a protein found in all cells of the body. The highest concentrations of ALP are located in cells of the liver, bones and bile ducts. ALP in the blood is primarily derived from excess ALP that is released from these cells. Blood levels of ALP are often measured as part of routine blood tests. Although many conditions, including liver and bone diseases, can cause high levels of ALP, low blood ALP levels are uncommon. Malnutrition is the main cause of low ALP levels, but some genetic diseases, other medical conditions and medications can lead to low ALP levels as well. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Poor Nutrition Low ALP levels may occur in individuals with malnutrition, especially when their protein or overall calorie intake is low. Children may be more likely than adults to develop low blood ALP levels from poor nutrition because their growing bodies have higher requirements for protein, calories and other nutrients. Malnutrition may be caused by a poor diet or by any condition that interferes with the absorption of food, such as celiac disease. When malnutrition is the cause of low ALP levels, other signs of poor nutrition will likely be evident as well."

The alk phos level is a common test that is usually included when liver tests are performed as a group. Explanation of test results: A high alk phos level does not reflect liver damage or inflammation. A high alk phos level occurs when there is a blockage of flow in the biliary tract or a buildup of pressure in the liver--often caused by a gallstone or scarring in the bile ducts. Other things to know: Many patients with hepatitis C have normal alk phos levels. Hepatitis C treatment usually does not affect alk phos levels. Alk phos is produced in other organs besides the liver--it is also found in the bones and the kidneys. If your alk phos level is high, your doctor will probably order additional tests to determine why. < Previous Just Diagnosed Main Next >"

Acid phosphatase is an enzyme found within the human body - primarily in the prostate gland. The enzyme is an essential requirement to trigger any specific chemical reactions within the body. An acid phosphate test is primarily performed in order to diagnose if prostate cancer has spread to any other parts of the body. This is mainly because the enzyme is found in increased amounts in men who are afflicted by prostate cancer. The highest levels of acid phosphate are found in conditions of metastasized prostate cancer. Other conditions that are also characterized by the increased levels of acid phosphatase include hyperthyroidism, blood cell diseases as well as Gaucher’s disease. Normal levels of acid phosphatase in the human body are measured between 0 to 0.8 units per liter and anything above these levels could also be an indicator of a decreased blood flow to the prostate gland, anemia, kidney disease and prostatitis in addition to the previously mentioned conditions as well as many others. Reasons Why It is Conducted An acid phosphatase test is used primarily to identify the level to which prostate cancer has progressed. When the cancer spreads to other parts of the body, the acid phosphatase levels rise."

A series of special blood tests can often determine whether or not the liver is functioning properly. These tests can also distinguish between acute and chronic liver disorders and between hepatitis and cholestasis. The most commonly performed blood tests include the following:serum bilirubin test This test measures the levels of bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is produced by the liver and is excreted in the bile. Elevated levels of bilirubin may indicate an obstruction of bile flow or a problem in the processing of bile by the liver.serum albumin test This test is used to measure the level of albumin (a protein in the blood) and aides in the diagnosis of liver disease.serum alkaline phosphatase test This test is used to measure the level of alkaline phosphatase (an enzyme) in the blood. Alkaline phosphatase is found in many tissues, with the highest concentrations in the liver, biliary tract, and bone. This test may be performed to assess liver functioning and to detect liver lesions that may cause biliary obstruction, such as tumors or abscesses.serum aminotransferases (transaminases) This enzyme is released from damaged liver cells.prothrombin time (PTT) test The prothrombin time test measures how long it takes for blood to clot. Blood clotting requires vitamin K and a protein that is made by the liver. Prolonged clotting may indicate liver disease or other deficiencies in specific clotting factors.alanine transaminase (ALT) test This test measures the level of alanine aminotransferase (an enzyme found predominantly in the liver) that is released into the bloodstream after acute liver cell damage."

If a winged queen is unfortunate enough to land in a territory that is already occupied by an ant colony she can consider herself very lucky if she is not found by foraging ants, attacked and eaten. One thing that fascinates me about what Lasius niger like to eat is a honeydew substance produced by aphids. Gardeners are probably well aware of the damage that aphids do to rose stems but ants are very fond of the honeydew that these aphids produce and so these ants will ‘farm’ aphids by placing them onto choice stems and will protect them from predators such as ladybirds. When a hungry ant approaches an aphid it will gently tap the aphid on the back with its antennae. In response the aphid will produce sweet honeydew, and the ant will eat it. The amount of food that an ant colony can bring in is staggering. The red wood ant of southern England, Formica rufa, which build large mounds of soil and pine needles on the edges of pine forests can bring in up to 100,000 insects a day if the ant colony is large and well established."

You don't HAVE to go to the store to buy crickets and stuff. I mean, how do you think they were fed before you got them. If you catch a Lizard, then feed it bugs that you find where you caught them. If you do go to the store , they only cost about $1.75 for about 100 crickets. You could also buy some powdered calcium and sprinkle it over the crickets if you want to.56 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

We thought it might be helpful if we could give our clients a simple, no-nonsense overview of a variety of common questions and answers regarding this wood-destroying insect. What Do Carpenter Ants Eat? Unlike termites, carpenter ants don’t eat wood. They are usually more interested in people and pet food as well as moisture sources like sweating pipes. That’s why you often see them in kitchens and bathrooms. Outside, carpenter ants are often seen in trees, preferring the sweet “honeydew” secretions of aphids, which they find on leaves. They also eat aphids and the weak in their colony. Where Do Carpenter Ants Live?"

Most are between 3 and 5mm long but the queen may be as long as 16mm. Reproductive males and females have wings, though the queen sheds her wings after laying eggs and males die shortly after mating. Where does the black garden ant live, and what does it eat? This ant is widespread across Europe, Asia, and the U. S. True to its name, the black garden ant is fond of a garden habitat: often found under paving stones and bricks, but may also nest in the rotting wood of houses. The black garden ant has been known to nest in cracks in foundations then make its way into homes. Colonies of the black garden ant contain an average of 5,000 individuals, but may grown as large as 15,000. The Black garden ant prefers sweet foods like ripe fruit, but also feeds on honeydew produced by aphids, and will even care for young aphids in order to harvest their honeydew. Other insects like mealybugs, whiteflies, and planthoppers are favorite sources of honeydew for the black garden ant."

"text": "Anti-Hero Definition of Anti-Hero Anti-hero is a literary device used by writers for a prominent character in a play or book that has characteristics opposite to that of a conventional hero. The protagonist is generally admired for his bravery, strength, charm, or ingenuity, while an anti-hero is typically clumsy, unsolicited, unskilled, and has both good and bad qualities. The origin of this literary device is marked in the 18th century, but there have been literary figures who believe that the concept of an anti-hero existed well before that. Recently, the usage of anti-hero in television and books has increased and became bolder than ever. Nowadays, there are thousands of shows, books, and movies that portray such characters, who are widely admired by audiences. Common Anti-Hero Examples The sh ip has sai led to the far off sh Sh e ate s even s andwiches on a s unny S unday last year.

Scientist, scholar, Latter-Day Saint. Answered Nov 9, 2015 · Author has 6.5k answers and 26.1m answer views Excellent question. The hero is usually, but not necessarily the protagonist, and the protagonist doesn't have to be a hero. The protagonist is the main character of any given work, the person who's plot arc you're following, the person who's success or failure is what the power of the story depends on. The hero is the \"\"good guy\"\", the person who's primarily responsible for saving the day. The key is that the hero must be ultimately responsible for doing what's right. There are works in which the protagonist is a villain. This is difficult to do well, because we usually don't want to sympathize with a villain, but it's entirely possible for a film to be about someone who's clearly a bad guy, and the antagonist can, in such cases, be the hero. In such cases, you could tell the exact same story two different ways: one with the hero as the protagonist, the other with the villain."

In current wrestling terms: John Cena is a current example of a prototypical \"\"face\"\" player. Seth Rollins is a current example of a prototypical \"\"heel\"\" player.

He is an anthropomorphic hedgehog / Black Arm hybrid and the arch-rival of Sonic the Hedgehog. Shadow was created as the \"\" Ultimate Life Form \"\" ( 究極生命体 Kyūkyoku Seimeitai?) by Gerald Robotnik, using the DNA of Black Doom, and is the end result of Project Shadow. His purpose was to provide ways to develop a cure for incurable deadly illnesses, more specifically for Gerald's granddaughter Maria Robotnik, but he was captured and put into stasis by the military when he was deemed as a threat to humanity.

In New 52 continuity, she's once again the current Batgirl, a member of the Birds of Prey. Her past from before the launch of the new 52 is relatively intact, only that the Joker' attack on her did not leave her permanently paralyzed and she was able to recover after a long period of physiotherapy. Origin Batgirl Year One While attending a costume party dressed as a female counterpart of Batman, Barbara Gordon witnesses the kidnapping of billionaire Bruce Wayne by super-villain Killer Moth. She prevents this and without realizing it, draws the attention of the Dark Knight. This event begins Barbara's path in crime fighting. In the New 52, Barbara, alongside with her brother, was visiting her father in the Police Station of Gotham City, under the excuse of needing it as part of a college project. Her real motivation, though, was taking a closer look on what the officers thought and knew about Batman, the mysterious vigilant who was similar to her in many aspects, including her smartness. She is escorted by officer Dwight Morgan, who is slightly attracted by the young lady. In the middle of the visit, though, a criminal who had just been arrested, Harry X, managed to start chaos in the Station, with the help of his allies."

The full version of this lecture can be accessed here . ] Dramatic Structure: Comedy and Tragedy Shakespeare's plays are all about one great general theme: disorder. This may sound like a profound statement, but, as we shall see in a moment, it applies equally well to almost all drama. Still, the point is worth stressing, for reasons we shall attend to in a moment, because the major entry into every play we read is going to be an attempt to answer some key questions associated with that notion of disorder: What is the order in this society? How is that order violated? How do the characters respond to the loss of traditional order? How is order restored? Is the new order at the end of the play something healthy or is it shot through with ironic resonance? All dramatic stories always involve conflict."

"text": "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine In 82.5 Hours Your friends for the next 82.5 hours. When I was in fifth grade, my Dad helped me build a homemade costume so I could go as a Borg from Star Trek for Halloween. Everyone in class asked me, “What are you?” and I said, “I’m a Borg. From Star Trek. ”As a kid, Star Trek: The Next Generation was my favorite show, but some time between fifth grade and now, I’ve come to recognize that while Next Gen holds a special place in my heart, it is not the best incarnation of Star Trek. That title belongs to what writer Ronald D. Moore called Next Generation’s “ bastard stepchild,” Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Deep Space Nine is a remarkable show. It is unfairly overlooked as one of the foundational programs (like Buffy, The Sopranos, and Hill Street Blues) of our current golden age of television. DS9 introduced long, serialized stories about morally ambiguous characters to network television ten years before Battlestar Galactica, Breaking Bad, and Game of Thrones."

"text": "\"Regular Show Season 8\"\"A Regular Epic Final Battle\"\" / \"\"Cheer Up Pops\"\"Title\"\"A Regular Epic Final Battle\"\"Score A-Episode29Title\"\"Cheer Up Pops\"\"Score B+Episode28Over the course of its eight seasons and 261 episodes, Regular Show always balanced the scales between small-scale and epic storytelling. The show’s premise was as simple as you can get: two friends in their early 20s hanging out, making up goofy raps, and trying to avoid work. But it also had a taste for using its animated format in the service of surreal, apocalyptic plotting—demons, egg knights, and a bunch of baby ducks that transform into a giant, ass-kicking hero. When Rigby graduated from high school at the end of the show’s seventh season, it signified the end of the characters’ arcs—everyone was ready to move on from the park toward whatever would happen next with their lives. So while this last season had a few moments of isolated character development, it was mostly crafted from the “epic” part of the show’s DNA, relying more heavily on fights and a bigger scope than catchphrases and solids. It’s an understandable decision, considering that J. G. Quintel and the rest of the writers had literally sent the main cast into space. This is the Regular Show endgame: a final showdown between Pops and his evil twin brother Anti-Pops (voiced by Robert Englund, naturally), a fight that cyclically bookends the destruction and rebirth of the Regular Show universe. To have the entire series come down to a fight between two characters—one of whom was only introduced this season—feels a bit off. ( Rigby’s graduation would have made more emotional sense, grounded as it was in years of him being an idiot. ) But to hear J. G. Quintel talk about after the first screening of the finale last week (during a panel I moderated), the decision made perfect sense."

A springboard story has an impact not so much through transferring large amounts of information, but through catalyzing understanding.

Open Document The Character of Shylock in Merchant of Venice Few characters created by Shakespeare embodies pure evil like the character of Shylock in The Merchant of Venice. Shylock is a usurer and a malevolent, blood-thirsty old man consumed with plotting the downfall of his enemies. He is a malignant, vengeful character, consumed with venomous malice1; a picture of callous, unmitigated villainy, deaf to every appeal of humanity2. Shylock is the antagonist opposite the naive, essentially good Antonio, the protagonist; who must defend himself against the \"\"devil\"\" Shylock. The evil he represents is one of the reasons Shakespeare chose to characterize Shylock as a Jew, as Jews of his time were seen as the children of the Devil, the crucifiers of Christ and stubborn rejecters of God's wisdom and Christianity. However, when Shakespeare created Shylock, he did not insert him in as a purely flat character, consumed only with the villainy of his plot. One of the great talents that Shakespeare possessed, remarks Shakespeare analyst Harrold R. Walley, was his ability to make each key character act like a real, rational person. Walley said of all of Shakespeare's characters, hero or villain, that \"\"Their conduct is always presented as logical and justifiable from their point of view3.\"\" To maintain the literary integrity of the play, \"\"Shakespeare is under the necessity of making clear why a man like Shylock should be wrought to such a pitch of vindictive hatred as to contemplate murder4.\"\" His evil must have some profound motivation, and that motivation is the evil done to him."

I see that as a part of the changes that comics went through so I thought I would use the title. This age is also called the Post Silver Age. You will see what I mean by changes as your read ahead. During the 1970's, DC had a rough time selling comics. There was an event labeled as the DC Explosion, where they created a bunch of titles.

Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.0:00 / 1:52One of the most common questions when upgrading your vehicle’s audio system with the addition of aftermarket amplifiers and subwoofers is, “Will I need to add a capacitor or second battery to my vehicle?” If you need to add a second battery, then you have to decide if you should add a power cell or if you should pick up a second battery for $60 at your local discount store. Finally, which of these methods will remedy your headlight dimming problem? These are good questions that hopefully I can help you understand, even if you do not understand the physics behind Ohm’s Law. Your common starting battery is referred to as a “wet cell” battery. Wet cell batteries contain metal plates submerged in a bath of lead acid that, when energized, creates electrons that produce electricity to power your vehicle. Have you ever noticed the corrosion that builds up on the terminals on your starting battery? This is caused by the acid spilling out of the top of the battery."

Features by Robert Triggs September 5, 2016 4hifiduino The LG V20 isn’t due to launch until tomorrow, but the company has been busy tantalising us with some of the phone’s upcoming features. Most intriguingly is the inclusion of the first ever “Quad” DAC packed into a smartphone. The term has led to a fair bit of confusion, with some wondering if LG is counting the number of outputs, or if there’s multiple DACs for different audio paths. I assure you that this isn’t the case, but a proper explanation is far more complicated. Of course, that’s what I’m here for. We are pretty certain that the LG V20 will be using the latest ES9218 component from ESS Technologies. The company’s press page features LG’s V20 statement, followed a few days later by a release about the company’s new ES9218 Quad DAC for mobile products. A pretty easy connection to make. Delving into the press release reveals that the ES9218 is a 32-bit 394k Hz and DSD512 capable component, with some nifty sounding analog audio controls, jitter controls, and integrated headphone amplifier."

Unbalanced Audio Basics Unbalanced audio is what you will be most familiar with; you use it whenever you connect a DVD player through the RCA jacks on your TV, hook some speakers to your computer sound card, or plug headphones into your i Pod.

"text": "Industry Intel 2012: Recording Engineer Salaries (By Industry and Region)May 10th, 2012 by Justin Colletti View Single Page Tweet Despite stories of big studio closures and contracting CD sales over the last decade, the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) suggests that the audio engineering profession has grown considerably since 1999. Although competition remains fierce and growth is expected to slow, median annual incomes have increased in recent years, rising from $30,000 to $46,000 between 1999 and 2010. But before we dive into these numbers, it’s important to know their limitations. The government’s data on salaries draws heavily from the Occupational Employment Statistics (“OES”) survey, a questionnaire which is filled out by businesses that hire and pay workers. Although the BLS also conducts a Current Population Survey (“CPS”) survey that attempts to fill in gaps with answers from individual members for the labor force, it’s likely that even with this extra data, the government’s numbers may not fully account for the impact of the self-employed. Based on the way these surveys work, it’s especially unlikely that the incomes of aspiring engineers who make a little extra money through recording on the side factor in much at all. While this can seem like a limitation at first glance, it may actually help keep the wage data fairly pure for our purposes. Despite their limitations, the government data on engineer salaries represents the best and most comprehensive collection of full and part-time compensation currently available. Where are the jobs, by industry? According to the U. S. government, the number of jobs for broadcast, audio and video engineers in general grew by 20%-25% from 1999 to 2010."

"text": "Tesla Coils - Frequently Asked Questions What is a Tesla coil? A Tesla coil is a device that uses resonant circuits and alternating current to produce extremely high voltages. Originally invented by Nikola Tesla in the late 1800s, Tesla coils have progressed from spark-gap circuits to designs involving modern solid-state switching devices such as MOSFETs and IGBTs. While there are many types of Tesla coils, what they all have in common are air-cored induction coils. Using a Tesla coil is the best way to produce a continuous high-voltage streamer. Some Tesla coils can be modulated to play music using the lightning they produce. At first it can be hard to believe that sound is coming from the streamers themselves, but it’s true, there is no speaker attached to a singing Tesla coil!Note: A Tesla coil is not the same thing as a Van de Graaf generator, though they are sometimes confused because they are both popular methods of making high voltage. A Van de Graaf generator uses a rotating belt to separate charges between ground and a metal terminal. A Tesla coil does not accumulate static charge and is AC, not DC electricity. What can you do with a Tesla coil?"

Old speakers that had adjustable crossovers with controls on the speaker often got \"\"scratchy\"\" with age, but can be cleaned with spray control cleaner. If it's a continual scraping noise, it could be the woofer voice coil, if it had been overdriven by the amp where the glue had melted temporarily, some of the voice coil windings might have come loose, where they would make sound scraping against the side of the magnetic gap. Suggestion: change speakers, left for right. Does the problem stay with the speaker or the amp channel? If it's the speaker, now you know, and can clean whatever contacts or controls are external. If you can gently push in evenly on the woofer and hear scraping noises, that's your problem. If the problem is now on the other speaker, it's the amp circuitry. If you can make it change by wiggling any of the controls, try cleaning them. If it's internal to the amp, you're better off leaving that to a repair center.195.2k Views · View Upvoters Your response is private."

"text": "\"Your guides Brent Butterworth Séamus Bellamy After researching 22 Bluetooth speakers and checking out 11 contenders in detail with a listening panel, we think Peachtree Audio’s Deepblue2 is the best home Bluetooth speaker for anyone looking for a convenient unit capable of filling a home with gorgeous sound. The Deepblue2 provides full, rich audio that comes close to what you might associate with a home stereo system, without the wires and setup that come with owning a traditional stereo (or the high cost of investing in a multiroom streaming system ). And according to our listening panel, it sounds almost as good as the Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Wireless, a Bluetooth speaker that costs hundreds of dollars more and takes up nearly twice as much counter space. Our pick Peachtree Audio Deepblue2The best home Bluetooth speaker Against Bluetooth speakers that cost almost twice as much, the Deepblue2 sounds almost as good, and in some cases better. Buy from Amazon*At the time of publishing, the price was $400. The Deepblue2 is a 440-watt speaker that offers deep bass response without skimping on high and midrange sound. No matter what we listened to on it, the Deepblue2 made our music sound great, offering excellent aural separation and a wide soundstage. In order to keep your music sounding great at any volume, the speaker automatically adjusts its EQ to correctly balance high, low, and midrange frequencies, keeping its overall sound natural. Measuring 9.1 by 14.2 by 6.5 inches and weighing 16 pounds, the Deepblue2 is definitely not what you’d call portable (we have a guide for those smaller speakers, by the way). But it has a small enough footprint that it can sit on a bookshelf, side table, or countertop without looking cumbersome."

"text": "\"Home Buying Guides Vehicle Electronics & GPS Car Audio Car Speakers & Speaker Systems What to Consider When Buying Car Stereo Tweeterse Bay 10K Views 1 Like Like Share March 3, 2016The built-in car stereo system that comes with a new (or used) car may not always be what the driver is looking for in terms of audio quality, frequencies, or volume levels. We live in an increasingly mobile society, which means we spend more and more time in our cars, so having the right sound is important. Whether it be for listening to classical pieces on the ride home from work, or for pumping up the bass while driving to impress pedestrians, it may be a good idea to upgrade the car stereo using so called component tweeter speakers. This guide will first explain the basics of audio frequencies and component speakers in general, and then offer some advice on what to consider when buying car stereo tweeters in particular. Finally, this guide explains how and where to find high quality car stereo tweeters at a prices that fit any budget. What Are Component Car Speakers and Why Use Them? When people buy a car, it usually comes with a pre-installed speaker system that is sufficient for listening to FM radio and playing the occasional CD. More demanding music enthusiasts, however, may find that the built-in system does not do the music justice. Somehow it sounds differently in the car than on the stereo at home. The reason for this lies in what is known as the audio frequency spectrum."

As a result, building a simple home recording studio around your existing computer can be quite inexpensive. Learning how to make a cheap recording studio at home requires an assessment of exactly what you'll be using the studio for and what quality of sound you need. The guide below outlines what to look for in each piece of equipment. Steps1 Purchase a computer. If you don't already have a computer to use in your recording setup, you will need to purchase one. Important considerations are processing speed and amount of memory, as recording software tends to use your computer's resources heavily. Both Windows and Mac platforms will work well; however, Windows machines typically allow for easier upgrading of the sound card. Factory-installed sound cards are not usually robust enough to produce high-quality recordings, so upgrading is a good idea.2 Choose a piece of recording software. The recording software provides the interface through which you will manage your recordings on your computer."

I know some people will swear that you could do it for $0, but I can assure you that you bought some piece of equipment to push out a professional podcast. This also includes the computer that you use to do everything. Professional means that you plan on being in a whole different category than a hobbyist as well. So let's see what you should have to make a professional podcast: Computer, mic (s), mic stands, scissor arms. ( $300-$12,000 is buying Mac Pro)Audacity (Free) and it makes pro podcasts just fine.

The UDP411 is a universal Blu-ray player from Arcam and forms part of their FMJ range. Strictly speaking it isn't actually universal because it doesn't play DVD-Audio discs, however it does play just about everything else including Blu-ray (2D and 3D), DVD, CD and SACD; along with AVI, MPEG4, WMA and MP3 media files. It has been designed to offer an audiophile level of performance and, as such, includes a 24-bit 192k Hz Delta Sigma DAC and balanced XLR stereo outputs. The Arcam UDP411 also comes with a high-end price and will set you back £1,199 at the time of writing (April 2015). That's a hefty wedge for a Blu-ray player these days, especially with Ultra HD 4K Blu-ray just around the corner. So does the Arcam UDP411 do enough to justify its price tag? Design & Connections The UDP411 uses the same styling found on the rest of Arcam's FMJ range, with an all-metal construction and black finish. The design is quite attractive but very minimalist in its approach, with a simple front panel that includes the bare minimum of features and controls. There's a reasonably large and informative display in the middle of the front panel and beneath that a disc tray whose mechanism is suitably quiet in operation."

Although its color pattern can be quite variable, this puffer can be very striking. Juveniles are often rather mottled in appearance, but as they mature an overlay of golden bands develop and darker areas become a deep red. LIke all puffer fish, the Fahaka also has the ability to change color depending on its mood. Some common names describing this handsome fish, based on its overall appearance, include the Lined Freshwater Puffer, Striped Puffer, and Band Puffer. It's a freshwater puffer fish originating from the Nile River, so is also known as the Nile Puffer. And of course being a puffer it can inflate into a ball, so the Fahaka Puffer is further called a Globe Fish. The Fahaka Puffer has an intelligent and curious nature and can become a very friendly pet, but can also be incredibly aggressive toward tank mates. They will most likely damage or kill any other fish that is kept with them. All puffers have a sharp beak in their mouths and the Fahaka Puffer will use it to remove pieces from just about any living thing that is in the tank with them."

"text": "\"Venom Symptoms and Impact Snake venom is the cause of many injuries and deaths to humans each year. The affect that snake venom has on the human body varies based on the species of snake and the type and amount of venom that is injected. Each species of snake injects a different venom and knowing the type of snake involved in a snakebite incident can be vital in saving a person’s life. How does snake venom affect the human body? Snake venom falls into four categories, Hemotoxic venom, Cytotoxic venom, Proteolytic venom and Neurotoxic venom. Each of these venom types target different systems within the body and cause different symptoms. All of these types of venom will need treatment to deactivate the affects. Hemotoxic venom attacks and damages red blood cells. This disrupts the body’s ability to clot blood and causes widespread damage to organs and tissue. The most obvious damage is done to the heart and cardiovascular system which pumps the venom around the body."

The tetraodon puffers are equipped with four large teeth which are nearly fused, forming a beak-like structure used for cracking mollusks and other invertebrates, as well as for scraping corals and general reef grazing. The members of this order include the fahaka puffer ( Tetraodon fahaka ), the Congo puffer ( Tetraodon miurus ), and the giant mbu puffer ( Tetraodon mbu ). Pufferfish from the genus Fugu (F. flavidus, F. poecilonotus, and F. niphobles ), Arothron ( A. nigropunctatus ), Chelonodon ( Chelonodon spp. ), and Takifugu ( Takifugu rubripes) also store TTX and related analogs in their tissues. Other marine organisms have been found to store TTX and include the Australian blue-ringed octopus ( Hapaloclaena maculosa, uses TTX as a toxin for capturing prey), parrotfish, triggerfish, goby, angelfish, cod, boxfish ( Ostracion spp. ), tobies, porcupine fish, molas or ocean sunfish, globefish, seastars, starfish ( Astropecten scoparius), xanthid crabs ( Eriphia spp. ), a horseshoe crab ( Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda), two Philippine crabs ( Zosimus aeneus and Atergatis floridus), a number of marine snails, flatworms, sea squirts, ribbonworms and arrowworms (which both use TTX as a venom for prey), molluscs ( Nassarius spp. and the Japanese trumpet shell \"\"Boshubora\"\" ), and marine algae ( Jania spp. )."

Most people who've had a comprehensive eye exam are familiar with the puffer test. A puffer test is what it sounds like: With your head resting in the chinrest of a diagnostic machine called a slit lamp, your eye doctor uses a puff of air across the surface of the eye to measure the intraocular pressure, \"\"inside\"\" pressure, of the eye. High pressure is a key indicator of glaucoma, a series of eye diseases that attacks the optic nerve. How does a puffer test work? Puff tests are quick and largely without discomfort. You'll look at a light inside the machine while your eye doctor blows a gentle puff of air across the surface of your open eye. A device called a tonometer measures the eye's resistance to the air, and calculates your internal eye pressure. This usually takes only a few moments, and while your eye might water slightly, the procedure is generally over before you know it!A puffer test is a part of glaucoma testing, and is a routine part of a comprehensive eye exam. Glaucoma is a serious disease of the optic nerve, and often doesn't present itself until vision becomes impaired – that's why it's so important to have a puffer test to measure your intraocular pressure."

They will also 'curl' their tail which can indicate stress or illness but also just a way of maneuverability. They also can be seen opening their mouths up wide, as if yawning. Their spots/patches are different colours and shades, from bluish green to black and from light to dark. They can also change how dark or faded their spots are, depending on their mood. Determining the sex of dwarf puffers when they are young is very difficult but easy in adults. The males have a dark line running down their belly ( as well as more yellow colouring on their bellies). The vertical line on the males darkens with sexual maturity and during spawning."

Most garter snakes are under 60 cm (24 inches) long, but can be larger. Garter snakes generally do not grow to any great size, reaching about three feet with a very narrow girth.

Tank Size The bigger the tank the better, but I would advise a minimum tank size of 300 liters (~80g). Most people keep discus in 400 litres and more so that they can grow big. As a baby, discus will secrete a hormone that stops them from growing. If your tank is too small, the hormone will build up and you will end up with stunted fish. Also, a bigger tank is easier to keep stable. Water Conditions Discus prefer a p H of 6.0, but I would recommend 6.5 so that you don’t destroy your bacteria cycle. Temperatures should be around 27C-28C (80.6F - 82.4F). Discus can’t tolerate ammonia, nitrite, or too much nitrate, so it’s a good idea to thoroughly cycle your tank before adding them as they are big fish. Filtration Even though I have seen people raise discus with a sponge filter, I wouldn’t recommend it."

Enter now!Laura Doss Tummy Puffer: Downing Fluids Before Your Workout It's important to drink plenty of fluids when it's hot out to prevent dehydration, especially when you exercise. Also, steadily sipping water encourages healthy digestion by keeping food moving through your system, says Christie Achenbach, RD, a dietitian in Destin, Florida, who specializes in nutrition for exercise. But chugging too much water before your workout makes your belly swell. Deflate-it fix: To avoid that sloshy, overfull feeling, drink about 16 to 24 ounces of water one to two hours before exercise."

"text": "\"Pets Fish What do green spotted puffer fish eat?is it okay for them to eat tropical flakes like my mollies? Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Green spotted puffers (GSP) have fused teeth which form a beak. This beak grows throughout the life of the fish. To prevent overgrown teeth (which will eventually prevent the GSP from eating properly) they need to be provided a diet that will keep their teeth worn down. In that regard, foods such as flakes and blood worms will lead to dental problems in the future (which will require clipping their beaks, a somewhat difficult process). Great foods for GSP's: Shelled mollusks such as clams, mussels and live ramhorn snails (they'll eat the entire snail, shell and all). Also beneficial are shelled crustaceans such as prawn, krill and mysis. Their diet can be supplemented with tough squid cubes, silversides and bloodworms and even raw shelled shrimp from the supermarket for treats. Larger GSP's (they max out at 5\"\" or maybe 6\"\") are capable of dismantling and consuming live crayfish. Source (s): Experience."

In captivity it can be fed a diet of various carnivore fares, such as fresh chopped or frozen shrimp, crab, squid, clams, fish, and it will sometimes eat preparations suitable for herbivores.\"\" \"\" Recommended Diet. Freeze dried blood worms and freeze dried shrimps or krill, plus frozen and live brine shrimp, live Ghost Shrimp, and an occasional treat of a few live Black Worms. Puffers have uniquely powerful beaks, that they use to crack open snail shells, and puffers love to eat small aquatic snails such as rams horn snails. Puffers will also eat Crabs and Shrimp.\"\" \"\" Care and feeding: The Spotted Green Puffers are omnivores, though a large part of their diet is meaty foods. In their natural environment they will eat various invertebrates, crustaceans and mollusks, but they also eat some vegetation. They are not difficult to feed as they will usually eat a variety of flake, frozen, and live foods including shrimp, ghost shrimp (gut-loaded), bloodworms, freeze-dried krill, crabs, brine shrimp, and snails."

"text": "Is It Safe To Eat Cod While Pregnant? Although there are some fish that pregnant women should stay clear of altogether, cod is among one of the species of fish that is considered okay and safe to eat while pregnant. Many women eat fish during their pregnancy as a way to load up on good nutrients such as protein, vitamin 3 and omega 3 fatty acids, all of which are essential for a baby’s development. However the downside to eating fish s that almost every single kind of fish often includes traces of Methyl mercury. This compound is known to be harmful in high doses to an unborn developing nervous system. Generally it is usually the larger predator fish which accumulate the highest levels of this mercury however. Eating fish can be quite beneficial for pregnant women and their developing babies. Just a few of the many benefits that incorporating fish into their diet are as follows: Prevents high blood pressure as well as pre-eclampsia. ( Pre-eclampsia is a combination of symptoms during pregnancy that include high blood pressure, edema, swelling and changes in reflexes. ) Enhances the baby’s brain development Promotes the birth of a full term baby with a higher and healthier birth weight The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in past years has issued newer guidelines for how women who are trying to conceive, are pregnant, nursing mothers, or who have young children can help limit their exposure to mercury in fish."

Full Answer When balancing a chemical equation, the Law of Conservation of Mass is used to determine that the same number of atoms of each element is present on each side of the equation. Atoms are counted by multiplying the subscript times the number in front of the molecule, atom or compound, which is known as the coefficient.

The two are separated by an arrow symbol (, usually read as \"\"yields\"\") and each individual substance's chemical formula is separated from others by a plus sign. As an example, the equation for the reaction of hydrochloric acid with sodium can be denoted:2 HCl + 2 Na → 2 Na Cl + H 2This equation would be read as \"\"two HCl plus two Na yields two Na Cl and H two.\"\" But, for equations involving complex chemicals, rather than reading the letter and its subscript, the chemical formulas are read using IUPAC nomenclature."

As shown in Figure 3.7 \"\"An Ammonium Dichromate Volcano: Change during a Chemical Reaction\"\", applying a small amount of heat to a pile of orange ammonium dichromate powder results in a vigorous reaction known as the ammonium dichromate volcano. Heat, light, and gas are produced as a large pile of fluffy green chromium (III) oxide forms. We can describe this reaction with a chemical equation, an expression that gives the identities and quantities of the substances in a chemical reaction. Chemical formulas and other symbols are used to indicate the starting material (s), or reactant (s), which by convention are written on the left side of the equation, and the final compound (s), or product (s), which are written on the right. An arrow points from the reactant to the products: Figure 3.7 An Ammonium Dichromate Volcano: Change during a Chemical Reaction The starting material (left) is solid ammonium dichromate.

The increase in the demand for domestic goods and services increase their production, triggering the economic growth. Hence in order to keeps the economy going, economic policies must improve the aggregate demand. And the demand for domestic products originates from outside the country, termed as exports. Likewise, local residents demand for the imported goods and services. Therefore the increase in exports increase the overall demand for domestic output, and increase in imports decreases the demand. Hence exports are the determinants of economic growth, while imports detract the growth of the economy. International demand for a country's goods and services is an important for boosting the economic growth. And to increase the demand of domestically produced goods in the foreigner market. Attractive prices of these goods should be set, making them more attractive."

These have included the atmosphere's composition, its vertical temperature structure and layering, its horizontal wind and temperature fields, and large-scale atmospheric circulation patterns that drive the observed weather and affect the distribution of ozone. We've discussed the wind fields and temperature fields mostly in a qualitative sense. Key concepts like why tight horizontal temperature gradients drive zonal jet streams have been presented but not explained in a dynamical sense. In this section, we explore the area of atmospheric dynamics in order to understand why the general circulation pattern behaves as it does. A good dynamics understanding can unify the previous sections so that they make sense. This includes the general circulation pattern; the observed distribution of temperature and how it varies with latitude, height, and season; and periodic phenomena like QBOs and ENSOs. We can also understand how these dynamical processes drive the observed distribution of ozone, as explored in Chapter 6.5.1 Geostrophic Balance All motion in the atmosphere is driven by two key processes: differential heating ultimately provided by the Sun and the spinning of the planet. The first, the differential heating, causes differing temperatures across the surface of Earth. This, in turn, sets up air pressure differences (as explained quantitatively by the equation of state in section 3.2)."

"text": "The accounting equation represents the basic equation associated with double-entry accounting. Essentially, this equation establishes the formula for representing the relationship that exists between assets, liabilities, and net worth. As the most common of all balance sheet equations, the accounting equation is also fundamental to learning how to properly read and utilize a balance sheet. For the purposes of understanding how the accounting equation works, it is important to have some grasp of what is meant by each of the three basic components mentioned in the equation. Assets refer to the worth of goods or products in the possession of the owner. Liabilities represent the amount of cash or resources that were borrowed in order to acquire the assets. Net worth is the financial worth of the individual, less any outstanding debts to outside entities. Essentially, the point of the accounting equation is to arrive at this final component of net worth, or as it is sometimes referred to, the equity. To illustrate the way that this equation works to determine net worth, assume that an investor currently has a net worth of two thousand dollars, with no current liabilities. The owner chooses to acquire a new asset for the amount of one thousand dollars."

Her job generally requires she establish and follow a schedule to regularly check the appropriateness of all business activities. She may work in a large or small financial institution. In an industry frequently considered highly competitive, a bank auditor reviews the general and specific aspects of daily practices to guarantee her bank remains competitive and maintains the integrity expected by its customers. She scrutinizes every practice from teller transactions through the security of the bank’s vaults and courier services. As an industry professional, she is generally aware of competitors’ procedures. She is typically expected to objectively rate her bank’s performance against others and take measures to improve upon areas that fall short of excellence. Usually on an annual basis, a bank auditor prepares a list of goals for her bank. These generally relate to increasing the customer base, retention of existing customers and improving lending rates to make them more attractive to clients. Other objectives often include reducing error rates in transaction processing, improving customer service ratings and decreasing loan default rates."

I served my first tour of duty at the PCAOB as General Counsel from 2004 to early 2007, shortly following the passage of SOX. One of our early and high priorities at the Board was to establish a cooperative relationship between the Board and the state boards of accountancy because we realized that the Board shares a common mission with the state boards and that, working together, we can better protect investors and strengthen the auditing profession. Currently, the PCAOB shares its detailed inspection reports, including the non-public portion, with thirty-two state boards of accountancy where the inspected firm or individual holds a license to practice and as long as the state board has acknowledged in writing its awareness of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act's confidentiality restrictions. The Board also sends a letter to the other state boards of accountancy with the public portion of the inspection report for the accounting firm that is licensed to practice in that state and informs that board that it can receive the non-public portion of the inspection report if it signs the PCAOB acknowledgement and agreement form. In addition, the PCAOB and the state boards of accountancy have been able to share certain information relating to PCAOB and state board enforcement actions. We also appreciate the letters that NASBA sent to Congress earlier this year in favor of legislation that would allow the Board to make disciplinary proceedings open to the public. Moreover, the PCAOB benefits from the comment letters that NASBA and state boards of accountancy regularly submit on its proposals and concept releases. The insightful comments assist the Board in ultimately developing a better standard or rule."

Yes Steve Barber audit committee chairman, Next No RA Collinge, head of corporate governance group, UK Shareholders Association80% of 10-year plus FTSE 350 companies had not changed auditors for at least 10 years NO RA Collinge By law an auditor reports and is responsible to the shareholders of the company being audited. The auditor is required to be independent of management, but they are the people he is appointed by, works with and the people who sign the cheque. Laura Carstensen of the Competition Commission commented: “Shareholders play very little role in appointing auditors compared to executive management… firms naturally focus more on meeting management interests”. When first appointed, the auditor will have explored all the material accounting processes and policies of his new client and decided on their effectiveness and fitness for purpose. At that point he could challenge any policies he was uncomfortable with, check his firm’s view with its technical department and either accept them or not. A working relationship with management was established. Such relationships can go on for a long time: 80% of 10-year plus FTSE 350 companies had until recently not changed auditors for at least 10 years, some for over 100. This has been a factor in the failure of auditors to warn of the bank collapses. In the EU alone, 114 banks received either capital injections or asset relief aid."

The work they do ranges from the auditing of tax accounts to confirm their information’s accuracy and completeness to investigating various government agencies’ financial accounts for signs of fraudulent activity or other types of budget-related malfeasance. Within these agencies, government accountants are an integral part of the budget and financial declaration process. Agencies depend on their accountants as they plan their activities over a given fiscal year, quarter or other specified financial period. Legislators who are responsible for allocating funds also depend on agency reports. Many of these reports are also open to members of the public who are interested to know how the government spends its money, although some are classified because they could contain information pertaining to national security. Day-to-Day Activities, Functions and Duties Individual government agencies employ accountants to prepare financial statements and handle payroll duties, among other things. Legislators and agencies can also request audits. An audit involves evaluating all of an agency’s financial information—bank statements, accounting records and so forth."

The accounting cycle is a sequence of steps or procedures related to the firm's accounts and account entries. A cycle begins with the first financial transactions of the period and their entry into the journal. The ends when the firm closes temporary accounts and publishes financial statements. The Accounting Cycle Ends Looking Backwards in Time An accounting cycle normally starts and runs across a complete accounting period, usually a fiscal quarter or year.

Although there is a high level of compliance with tax laws in Canada, auditing processes help maintain public confidence in the fairness and integrity of Canada's tax system. If you have been selected for a business audit, here is what you need to know. How does the CRA select files for business audits? The CRA’s risk-assessment system selects files to audit based on a number of conditions such as the potential for errors in tax returns or indications of non-compliance with tax obligations. The CRA also looks at the information it has on file and may compare that information to similar files or consider information from other audits or investigations. How does the CRA conduct business audits? A CRA auditor will write to you or call you, or both, to begin the audit process and inform you of where the audit will take place.

Business Law A A AThe Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Congress’ effort last July to respond to corporate scandals and to restore confidence in the stock markets, is off to such a rocky start that one is tempted to ask whether Congress will have to try again to accomplish significant reform. A study of congressional response to an even worse period of market turmoil, the Crash of 1929 and the subsequent Great Depression, provides some interesting parallels that suggest the job may not yet be complete. After congressional hearings into allegations of corporate fraud in the early 1930s, Congress first passed the Securities Act of 1933. However, that law was viewed as inadequate, and just one year later Congress returned to pass the far more sweeping Securities Exchange Act of 1934. However, even if Sarbanes-Oxley ultimately proves to be only the first act, it does include a number of provisions requiring changes in how business is done. This is particularly true with regard to auditors and the role of the audit committee.

"text": "\"Understanding the Auditor's Report If all the facts concerning financial transactions were properly and accurately recorded and if the owners and managers of business enterprises were entirely honest and sufficiently skilled in matters of accounting and recording, there would be little need for independent auditing. However, human nature being as it is, there probably will always be a need for the auditor. Many businesses, depending on size and nature, employ internal auditors. Their responsibilities and functions, while similar to those of an independent auditor, are vitally different in a major respect having to do with impartiality and independence. For the purpose of this discussion the terms accountant, auditor and certified public accountant (CPA) are used interchangeably and only refer to the \"\"outside\"\" independent auditor. The Role of the Auditor Dependable financial information is essential to the very existence of our society. The credit professional making a decision to grant trade credit, the investor making a decision to buy or sell securities, the banker deciding whether to approve a loan, the government in obtaining revenue based on income tax returns, all are relying upon information provided by others. In many of these situations, the goals of the providers of information run directly counter to those of the users of the information. Implicit in this line of reasoning is recognition of the social need for independent auditors - individuals with a professional competence and integrity who can tell us whether the information on which we rely constitutes a fair picture of what is really going on. Good accounting and financial reporting aid society in allocating its resources in the most efficient manner."

The Federal Reserve System was designed to give it a broad perspective on the economy and on economic activity in all parts of the nation. It is a federal system, composed of a central, independent governmental agency-- the Board of Governors--in Washington, D. C., and 12 regional Federal Reserve Banks, located in major cities throughout the nation. These components share responsibility for supervising and regulating certain financial institutions and activities; providing banking services to depository institutions and to the federal government; and ensuring that consumers receive adequate information and fair treatment in their business with the banking system. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is the monetary policymaking body of the Federal Reserve System. The FOMC is composed of 12 members--the seven members of the Board of Governors and five of the 12 Reserve Bank presidents. The Chairman of the Board of Governors serves as the Chairman of the FOMC; the president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is a permanent member of the Committee and serves as the Vice Chairman of the Committee. The presidents of the other Reserve Banks fill the remaining four voting positions on the FOMC on a rotating basis. All of the Reserve Bank presidents, including those who are not voting members, attend FOMC meetings, participate in the discussions, and contribute to the assessment of the economy and policy options. The FOMC oversees open market operations, which is the main tool used by the Federal Reserve to influence money market conditions and the growth of money and credit."

Phone Number | 202-622-6500Email Address | [email protected] Web Site | http://www.tigta.gov September 25, 2008MEMORANDUM FOR COMMISSIONER, WAGE AND INVESTMENT DIVISIONFROM: Michael R. Phillips /s/ Michael R. Phillips Deputy Inspector General for Audit SUBJECT: Final Audit Report – Processes Are Not Sufficient to Minimize Fraud and Ensure the Accuracy of Tax Refund Direct Deposits (Audit # 200840007)This report presents the results of our review to determine whether Internal Revenue Service (IRS) processes and controls over the direct deposit of refunds into taxpayer bank accounts [1] are adequate to ensure the deposits are accurate and to identify potentially misrouted or fraudulent direct deposits. This audit was included in our Fiscal Year 2008 Annual Audit Plan. Impact on the Taxpayer The IRS states that direct deposit provides taxpayers with a faster, more secure, more convenient means by which to receive their tax refunds. The IRS has offered taxpayers who electronically file this option since Tax Year 1987, and then expanded this option to include paper tax return filers beginning in Tax Year 1995. However, the IRS has not developed processes to ensure that the more than 61 million Filing Season 2008 tax refunds were deposited only to an account in the name of the filer, as required by Federal direct deposit regulations. [ 2] Consequently, there is an increased risk of refund fraud as well as the potential that inadvertent errors can result in depositing refunds into the wrong bank account. Synopsis The IRS is not in compliance with direct deposit regulations that require tax refunds be deposited to an account only in the name of the filer. The IRS has not developed sufficient processes to ensure that the more than 61 million Filing Season 2008 tax refunds were deposited to an account in the name of the filer. Federal regulations specify that non-vendor direct deposit payments should be made only to a deposit account in the name of the recipient."

On Thursday, according to CFO Journal, PCAOB chairman James Doty told the SEC that “We don’t have an active project or work going on within the board to move forward on a term limit for auditors.” However, Doty added, the PCAOB would “continue to think about what impacts independence. ”Doty’s remarks came at a budget meeting with SEC members. Recommended Stories: GE Investors Urged to Dump KPMG as Auditor Controller Charged in Revenue Recognition Scheme How Audit Committees Can Help with Non-GAAPThe PCAOB encountered fierce resistance to the mandatory auditor rotation idea, which never got beyond the concept release stage. It would have required U. S. public companies to change auditors every few years. Even the House of Representatives got in on the act in 2013, passing a bill that would have amended the Sarbanex-Oxley Act to prohibit the PCAOB from requiring companies to “use specific auditors or require the use of different auditors on a rotating basis. ”At the time of the concept release in 2012, Doty noted that the PCAOB had found “hundreds of audit failures” during its inspections and suggested that management influence over auditors may have led to “eroded public confidence in audits. ”Senior finance executives, however, loudly urged the PCAOB to abandon thoughts of requiring corporations to switch their accounting firms regularly."

Even as late as the Medieval Era, taxes weren't so much prepared as taken unscrupulously. These days though, the preparation of taxes is far more complex than ever before, and requires such meticulous attention to detail that the profession of \"\"tax preparer\"\" has become both a lucrative and secure career. Becoming a tax preparer isn't quite as difficult as becoming a certified accountant, with whom tax preparers are sometimes confused. Tax preparers needn't take exams to become a CPA (Certified Public Accountant). The tests required to earn that certification are often a factor in one's decision to strive to become a tax preparer. So what is involved? Those pursuing the career of tax preparation must earn their high school diploma, GED or equivalent. The next step is to take tax preparation classes, where students will learn the laws, regulations and procedures governing taxation. Though it's not required for tax preparers to attend a four-year school (quickly becoming five- and six-year schools), these classes are mandatory and necessary for future tax preparers to learn the basics."

Barber shop in Torquay, Devon, with red and white pole A barber's pole is a type of sign used by barbers to signify the place or shop where they perform their craft. The trade sign is, by a tradition dating back to the Middle Ages, a staff or pole with a helix of colored stripes (often red and white in many countries, but usually red, blue, and white in the United States). The pole may be stationary or may revolve, often with the aid of an electric motor. [ 1] [2]A \"\"barber's pole\"\" with a helical stripe is a familiar sight, and is used as a secondary metaphor to describe objects in many other contexts. For example, if the shaft or tower of a lighthouse has been painted with a helical stripe as a daymark, the lighthouse could be described as having been painted in \"\"barber's pole\"\" colors.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen: Most people who oppose socialized medicine do so on the grounds that it is moral and well-intentioned, but impractical; i.e., it is a noble idea—which just somehow does not work. I do not agree that socialized medicine is moral and well-intentioned, but impractical. Of course, it is impractical—it does not work—but I hold that it is impractical because it is immoral. This is not a case of noble in theory but a failure in practice; it is a case of vicious in theory and therefore a disaster in practice. So I'm going to leave it to other speakers to concentrate on the practical flaws in the Clinton health plan. I want to focus on the moral issue at stake.

Schools in bigger cities generally tend to cost more than those located in more rural or suburban areas. Additionally, barber schools that are extremely popular with high demand will likely come with a higher price tag. Community colleges tend to offer low prices for in-state students, whereas out-of-state community college students can expect to pay closer to the same cost as a private technical school. Sometimes whether a school is locally owned or part of a major chain can affect the price, as well.

It dates back to the time of barber surgeons, thus Consultant Surgeons use \"\"Mr\"\" to differentiate themselves from doctors, as barbers would not have had a medical qualification [of course they have to have one now!] Interestingly, this is also where the red and white striped pole of the hairdresser comes from.

Andrew W · 10 years ago1 0 Comment Asker's rating In the health service, the term 'Dr' is more of a job title that an honorific. Academically, you are a Doctor if you hold a Doctorate, a Ph D, a DLit or similar. Although there are indeed degrees of Doctor of Medicine, Doctor of Surgery etc, many 'Doctors' have only got Bachelor of Surgery degrees.

Here’s a list of all the half dollars you should be looking for…#1 – 1892-O Micro “O” Barber Half Dollar, $2,000 & up This die variety shows a tiny “O” mintmark (for the New Orleans mint) under the eagle on the reverse of the coin. These Micro-O 1892 Barber half dollars are very scarce.#2 – 1892-O Barber Half Dollar, $295 & up Also scarce is the regular 1892-O Barber half dollar. Only 390,000 Barber half dollars were made at the New Orleans mint in 1892, and most no longer survive.#3 – 1921-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar, $275 & up The 1921-D half dollar is a key-date coin for the Walking Liberty half dollar series and is a scarce coin, too. Only 208,000 were made, but far fewer exist today."

"text": "Home » Resources » History Of Phlebotomy History Of Phlebotomy SHAREThe earliest forms of phlebotomy can be traced all the way back to the ancient Egyptian civilization, and ancient Greek and Roman cultures. Back in ancient times, the removal of blood from the body was less of a science than a way of supposedly ridding the body of “evil spirits” or illnesses. Draining blood, in ancient times, was considered one way to effectively cure the body of most ills, and was often performed using a lancet tool. In 1163, Pope Alexander III prohibited clergyman from performing these bloodlettings, so barbers took over as they were naturally skilled with sharp objects. Barber-surgeons, as they were called, also performed various other health related tasks such as treating wounds and bone setting. The red and white barber poles you still see today are, in fact, a symbol of the bloodletting procedures they would often perform. The red symbolizes the blood and the white is a symbol of the bandages used to stop the bleeding. The practice of “bloodletting” was introduced to the United States by the Pilgrims during the 18th century. They would normally drain one to four pints of blood from the patient during a bloodletting procedure, until the patient began to feel faint. This was a risky procedure,as we know today, in which far too much blood was removed from the body at once."

Asked by fashion stylist Joe Zee, one of the celebrity judges, about the Pentagon’s decision to open up combat jobs to women, the Army reserve-officer-turned-beauty-queen didn’t bat an eyelash (metaphorically, of course; Barber’s falsies fluttered throughout).“As a woman in the United States Army, I think it was an amazing job by our government to allow women to integrate to every branch of the military,” she said. “ We are just as tough as men. As a commander of my unit, I am powerful. I am dedicated. And it is important that we recognize that gender does not limit us in the United States Army. ”Barber’s sure-footed answer might just have landed her the title (although her equally confident sashay in a string-tie bikini across the stage of T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas Strip probably didn’t hurt).

By November 1924, after more than 36 attempts to strengthen the flakes to withstand packaging, the process for creating the flakes had been perfected by the Washburn head miller, George Cormack, and the cereal was named Washburn's Gold Medal Whole Wheat Flakes. Soon after, the name was changed to Wheaties as a result of an employee contest won by Jane Bausman, the wife of a company export manager. Other names passed over included \"\"Nutties\"\" and \"\"Gold Medal Wheat Flakes. \"\" Wheaties began to be advertised on Minneapolis's WCCO radio station (owned by Washburn Crosby) on December 24, 1926, with the first-ever commercial jingle.

A map is an icon of the geographic locality it represents. A picture of rocks falling is an icon of a rock slide. Also, icons show different degrees of iconicity, or natural resemblance to what they signify. For instance, some pictures are very exact representations (an example would be a photograph, which is an icon of what it represents); other pictures may be more abstract (such as the conventionalized shapes of a man and a woman on bathroom doors). Nevertheless, if the physical resemblance is detectable, then the picture could be called an icon. Sound symbols can be iconic, too. When telling a story, for example, a narrator may make a whistling sound to signify wind; this whistle is an icon for wind."

Northern bat hibernating in Norway Bats hibernating in a silver mine Hibernation is a state of inactivity and metabolic depression in endotherms. Hibernation refers to a season of heterothermy characterized by low body temperature, slow breathing and heart rate, and low metabolic rate. Although traditionally reserved for \"\"deep\"\" hibernators such as rodents, the term has been redefined to include animals such as bears and is now applied based on active metabolic suppression rather than absolute body temperature decline. Many experts believe that the processes of daily torpor and hibernation form a continuum and utilize similar mechanisms. [ 1] [2] The equivalent during the summer months is aestivation. Some reptile species ( ectotherms) are said to brumate, but possible similarities between brumation and hibernation are not firmly established. Some insects, such as the wasp Polistes exclamans, hibernate by aggregating in protected places called hibernacula. ["

Swallows, of the family Hirundinidae, are among the most conspicuous, well known, and beneficial of birds; they feed in flight on numerous insects detrimental to man. Seven of the eight species occurring in Texas are colonial to some extent, and all are migratory. Most have developed close associations with man and his works, constructing their nests on bridges and buildings or within highway culverts and birdhouses. They are streamlined in form, with relatively long, pointed wings and small feet, and, with the exceptions noted below, average between five and six inches in length. Snakes, hawks, and owls appear to be their major natural predators. All swallows are protected by federal and state law. Descriptions that follow are for adult birds. The purple martin ( Progne subis ), the state's largest (about eight inches long) swallow, is probably the species best known to most city and suburban dwellers. This is the only United States swallow whose sexes differ markedly in appearance; males are shiny blue-black both top and bottom, and females and immatures have light breasts and bellies."

"text": "articleshome | Specific Houses for Specific Birds SPECIFIC HOUSES FOR SPECIFIC BIRDSby Jennifer Jones When it comes to birdhouses, the size and design depends on the type of bird that will seek out the shelter. Each kind of bird species chooses their nest and homes differently. Some prefer holes near the ground, while others enjoy being up high in the open. Some birds, like cardinals and orioles, do not nest in boxes. A first good step for deciding on birdhouses is to determine which bird species reside in your area and the ones you want to attract. Bluebirds – Open areas, like orchards, parks, fields and cemeteries; provide a prime attraction space for a pair of bluebirds. They like a box with a small hole, around and inch and a half, that is three to five feet above the ground. Sparrows – Many people consider sparrows a pest, since they are the most common songbirds in the United States. They often will occupy any possible birdhouse in just about any location from the city to the country. Leafy spaces with ample trees and shrubs are their favorite resting spots."

( April 2010)The 1986 Chernobyl disaster triggered the release of substantial amounts of radioactivity into the atmosphere in the form of both particulate and gaseous radioisotopes. It is one of the most significant unintentional releases of radioactivity into the environment to present day. The work of the Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment (SCOPE), suggests that the Chernobyl incident cannot be directly compared to atmospheric tests of nuclear weapons through a single number, with one being simply x times larger than the other. This is partly due to the fact that the isotopes released at Chernobyl tended to be longer-lived than those released by the detonation of atomic bombs, thus producing radioactivity curves that vary in shape as well as size.

This is a list of the bird species recorded in the Cayman Islands. The avifauna of the Cayman Islands include a total of 258 species, according to Bird Checklists of the World as of December 2017. [ 1] Of them, 156 are rare or accidental and nine are introduced. One species ( Grand Cayman thrush) was endemic to the islands but is now extinct, and one species ( Jamaican oriole) has been extirpated. [ 2] One additional accidental species has been added through e Bird. [ 3] Bird Life International has reclassified Grand Cayman 's endemic Cuban bullfinch subspecies as a full species, the Grand Cayman bullfinch, but Clements has not yet accepted this.

"text": "\"Plate 173Barn Swallow The Barn Swallow makes its first appearance at New Orleans from the middle of February to the first of March. They do not arrive in flocks, but apparently in pairs, or a few together, and immediately resort to the places where they have bred before, or where they have been reared. Their progress over the Union depends much on the state of the weather; and I have observed a difference of a whole month, owing to the varying temperature, in their arrival at different places. Thus in Kentucky, Virginia, or Pennsylvania, they now and then do not arrive until the middle of April or the beginning of May. In milder seasons they reach Massachusetts and the eastern parts of Maine by the 10th of the latter month, when you may rest assured that they are distributed over all the intermediate districts. So hardy does this species seem to be, that I observed it near Eastport in Maine, on the 7th May, 1833, in company with the Republican or Cliff Swallow, pursuing its different avocations, while masses of ice hung from every cliff, and the weather felt cold to me. I saw them in the Gut of Cansso on the 10th of June, and on the Magdeleine Islands on the 13th of the same month. They were occupied in building their nests in the open cupola of a church. Not one, however, was observed in Labrador, although many Sand Martins were seen there. On our return, I found at Newfoundland some of the present species, and of the Cliff Swallow, all of which were migrating southward on the 14th of August, when Fahrenheit's thermometer stood at 41 degrees. In spring, the Barn Swallow is welcomed by all, for she seldom appears before the final melting of the snows and the commencement of mild weather, and is looked upon as the harbinger of summer."

It has a rusty-orange throat and forehead and a pale orange chest and underside. It has a deeply forked tail. Males and females are similar, but the female's tail is a little less forked, and her underparts are a little paler. Range In North America, the barn swallow breeds from Alaska east to Newfoundland, Canada and south to California and northern Florida. The barn swallow is a Neotropical migrant. It leaves its breeding range in the fall and travels south to winter in Mexico, Central America, and South America. It travels by day, eating as it flies. It travels as many as 600 miles a day. Barn swallows migrate in large groups."

On white wings he travels off silently caring death in his talons. There is no remorse, only absolute recognition of the cleverness in him that reflects the genius of the Divine. He finds a fence post on which to perch and brings his claw adeptly up to his beak. This is his sixth meal of the night and he is no rush to fill his belly. Instead, he snaps the neck of the mouse and sits stoically with it in his talons. He owns the night, the night without moon or stars, the night that sends most creatures into hiding. With his white, heart-shaped face and pitch black eyes he is both a light in the darkness and an invitation to it. Navigating in the Dark Owl symbolism across all species of owls is spoken of as hearing and seeing in the dark, but no owl embodies this talent like the barn owl. Barn owls are so incredibly successful at what they do that they are found throughout the world and “are arguably the most widespread bird species on earth” [1]. There are 46 races of barn owl with the race in North America being the largest."

The habitats for these smaller birds vary greatly. Some species prefer to live closely with humans, even making their nests in man-made structures such as barns or homes. General Swallow Habitat Although the 100 or so species of swallows vary in where they live and what type of setting they prefer to raise their young in, the family shares a couple of habitat preferences. These graceful fliers need to live near an acceptable source of freshwater, whether it be rivers, streams or ponds. Most prefer an open habitat with a suitable structure for placing their nests in. Most of their diet comes from flying insects; some species are known to travel 600 miles a day searching for flying food to feed their young. Tachycineta The genus Tachycineta contains the tree swallows. The small tree swallow (Tachycineta bicolor) reaching only about 5 1/2 inches long, prefers open habitats such as fields, meadows and shorelines."

What Is Normal Barometric Pressure? How Do Low-Pressure Systems Form? Full Answer Most barometric pressure sensors that can operate independently are usually placed on top of the firewall or the fender skirt's interior. Some devices are installed along with the manifold absolute pressure sensor or mounted on the intake manifold of the fuel system. One variation in barometric pressure sensors is the range of pressure levels these instruments can measure. The CS100 barometric pressure sensor manufactured by Setra detects fluctuations in atmospheric pressure between 600 to 1,100 millibars, while Vaisala's CS106 pressure sensor gauges pressure differences from 500 to 1,100 millibars."

This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations. ( December 2013) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)The manifold absolute pressure sensor ( MAP sensor) is one of the sensors used in an internal combustion engine 's electronic control system. Engines that use a MAP sensor are typically fuel injected. The manifold absolute pressure sensor provides instantaneous manifold pressure information to the engine's electronic control unit (ECU). The data is used to calculate air density and determine the engine's air mass flow rate, which in turn determines the required fuel metering for optimum combustion (see stoichiometry) and influence the advance or retard of ignition timing. A fuel-injected engine may alternatively use a mass airflow sensor (MAF sensor) to detect the intake airflow. A typical naturally aspirated engine configuration employs one or the other, whereas forced induction engines typically use both; a MAF sensor on the intake tract pre- turbo and a MAP sensor on the charge pipe leading to the throttle body."

"text": "\"What barometric pressure means for hikers Feb 3, 2015When you're preparing to climb at high altitudes, you'll want to have your watch barometer handy for the trip. However, if you've never hiked at high altitudes before, you may not know much about what a barometer can do and how pressure affects your climb. It's important that every hiker know at least the basics before ascending or else risk serious health issues on the way up or down. What is a barometer? A barometer is a tool that measures the air pressure, similar to a thermometer with temperature. Some barometers use mercury, like thermometers, that react to the air pressure above them. However, watch barometers are able to give you a simple read out on the wrist. What is air pressure? Knowing what a barometer is or how to use it is pointless if you don't understand air pressure. Air pressure, or barometric pressure, is the measurement of how much air is above any one area at a given time."

Video: The Unpredictable Weather Guys explain why weather stations are unique compared to online weather websites and phone weather apps. Weather station data can be used to gauge current weather conditions and to predict the future weather forecast, like temperature high / lows, cloud cover and probability of precipitation. Weather stations are used by meteorologists, weather buffs, gardeners, farmers, outdoor enthusiasts, students, pilots – anyone who enjoys weather data or relies on the weather to make decisions."

With the PT Cruiser, a longer code seems to be used. In addition, as with all vehicles sold in the United States, the system is OBDC3 compatible, so that a standard diagnostic device can be plugged into a standard jack to get computer codes. When some problems are found, the computer lights up the \"\"engine light;\"\" others are ignored until a mechanic asks for them. The \"\"engine light\"\" stays on when a serious emissions or engine problem is found, until the code is erased. Chrysler vehicles have a \"\"limp in\"\" mode which reverts to a pre-programmed \"\"guessing map\"\" for timing, fuel delivery, etc. when a critical sensor fails. Those who have been in other cars when their oxygen sensor failed can feel grateful for this feature, though it can be confusing - for example, in some (maybe all) models, the automatic transmission is limited to second gear! The engine light also turns itself on for two seconds every time the car is started so you will know the bulb still works."

If the light goes off, we assume things are okay. Now it comes on again. Knowing if we should continue driving or stop right now is difficult. To clear the confusion, we need a basic understanding of what the check engine light is trying to tell us. A check engine indicator is a malfunction-indicator light or MIL for the computer-management system. They use several computers to operate the various systems on modern vehicles. The power control module or PCM controls the engine and constantly tests each system that it monitors. Should any test fail to pass, the PCM turns on the check engine light to inform the driver."

"text": "\"Home , Auto Repair Library, Auto Parts, Accessories, Tools, Manuals & Books, Car BLOG, Links, Index Manifold Absolute Pressure MAP Sensors Copyright AA1Car The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor is a key sensor because it senses engine load. The sensor generates a signal that is proportional to the amount of vacuum in the intake manifold. The engine computer then uses this information to adjust ignition timing and fuel enrichment. When the engine is working hard, intake vacuum drops as the throttle opens wide. The engine sucks in more air, which requires more fuel to keep the air/fuel ratio in balance. In fact, when the computer reads a heavy load signal from the MAP sensor, it usually makes the fuel mixture go slightly richer than normal so the engine can produce more power. At the same time, the computer will retard (back off) ignition timing slightly to prevent detonation (spark knock) that can damage the engine and hurt performance. When conditions change and the vehicle is cruising along under light load, coasting or decelerating, less power is needed from the engine. The throttle is not open very wide or may be closed causing intake vacuum to increase. The MAP sensor senses this and the computer responds by leaning out the fuel mixture to reduce fuel consumption and advances ignition timing to squeeze a little more fuel economy out of the engine."

Under most conditions it forecasts weather for the 12 to 24 hours ahead. Its mission is to measure air or atmospheric pressure and indicate its rising or falling. The pressure is shown on your barometer's dial, usually expressed in \"\"inches\"\" referring to \"\"inches of mercury\"\" (inch Hg). The early barometers measured the pressure by the rise or fall of a column of mercury. This mercury barometer was invented back in 1643 by a pupil of Galileo named Evangelista Toricelli. Meteorologists use \"\"millibars\"\" in charting atmospheric pressure and your barometer has a second scale or ring which reads in millibars (mb), or \"\"hectopascals\"\" (h Pa). The latter is used in some countries as a unit of pressure. Standard air pressure at standard elevation (sea level) at 15°C and 45° latitude is 1013 h Pa or 29.92 inches of mercury.

"text": "\"Factors To Consider When Making Your Purchase Weather Variables - This is the most important factor when purchasing commercial weather stations because the type of weather measurements (variables) you wish to monitor will determine if you should be looking for a basic personal weather station (temperature, humidity, barometric pressure) or a complete professional weather station (wind, rain, and more). You should also consider how a unit's indoor console displays this data. Cost - How much you are willing or can afford to pay for your weather station is a factor that will impact all of the factors that remain. In general, the more money you can invest in a personal weather station the better it is. However, comparing specifications is definitely worthwhile because the old adage \"\"you get what you pay for\"\" is not necessarily true in all cases. Installation Issues - The site where you intend to install your personal weather station needs to be evaluated, taking into consideration the distance from the indoor display console to where the sensors have to be located. For cabled weather stations, the length of the cable that comes with the unit will determine the maximum distance. Some manufacturers do offer extension cables for their cabled weather stations. Wireless home weather stations have a maximum \"\"unobstructed\"\" or \"\"line of sight\"\" range rating, which is diminished by the type and number of building materials the signal must penetrate. A rule-of-thumb for a typical installation is one half to one third the distance of the unobstructed range rating."

"text": "Emissions / Diagnostics Sep 1, 2006 12:00 am Diagnostic Dilemmas: The Pressures of Intake Manifold Vacuum Tests Share Tweet Print Email Gary Goms, author View bio Several years ago, a retired school teacher brought in a 1994 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer that had developed an intermittent rough idle condition. Although a rebuilt engine had been installed a year before, and all of the wiring and vacuum hoses looked as if they were in factory condition, I took nothing for granted. An ignition scope and compression test yielded no result and neither did spraying the manifold gaskets with aerosol carburetor cleaner. When I connected a vacuum gauge to the intake manifold, the needle would jiggle ever so slightly when the engine began misfiring. A few moments later, the vacuum reading would stabilize and the engine would idle very smoothly. I suspected a broken valve spring, but removing the valve covers on this particular engine is difficult and time-consuming due to accessory interference. With these thoughts in mind, I began devising a diagnostic strategy that would tell me which bank was misfiring and, with a little luck, which cylinder was misfiring. Vacuum Terminology Intake manifold vacuum analysis can be a little tricky because the conventional term “intake manifold vacuum” is a technical misnomer. Technically speaking, the intake manifold must contain enough liquid fuel and air to support combustion, so what we have is not a complete vacuum, but an atmospheric “pressure differential” between the inside and outside of the intake manifold. A more current term refers to the pressure inside the intake manifold as Manifold Absolute Pressure or “MAP.”"

Since there are a wide variety of weather conditions that can be measured, there is a large assortment of weather instruments available for many different purposes. You may already be familiar with common weather instruments, like thermometers and wind vanes. But to get the full picture of the weather around us, we need hygrometers, anemometers, barometers, rain gauges and sometimes even lightning detectors. Oftentimes, multiple weather instruments are combined into a single product, known as a weather station. By integrating multiple environmental measurements and a barometer, weather stations can give you a thorough view of the conditions outdoors and also generate reliable weather forecasts.

Their hunger for data and forecasts is seemingly unceasing; the more localized that information is, the better. And it doesn’t get much more local than your very own home weather station. The home weather station isn’t a new idea, but recent models have become considerably more feature-stuffed compared to what you might have seen even just a few years ago. We hiked up our galoshes and put four current, wireless weather station products to the test to see which gave us the best inside line on whether you’ll weather the weather. Do You Need a Home Weather Station? If a glance out the window—or at a smartphone notification—tells you all you need to know about the conditions outside, you probably don’t need to drop a couple of hundred dollars on a dedicated, information-dense, digital weatherman for your home. There’s a lot to be said, though, for taking a more granular look at what’s on your own personal horizon. The best home weather stations offer real-time insight into everything from wind speed and expected rainfall to solar radiation and UV levels. They offer obvious practical applications for gardening and other outdoor activities, but also the assurance that your read on the weather will be more accurate, more truly specific to you, than whatever the local news is selling."

Freebase (0.00 / 0 votes)Rate this definition: Barr body A Barr body is the inactive X chromosome in a female somatic cell, rendered inactive in a process called lyonization, in those species in which sex is determined by the presence of the Y or W chromosome rather than the diploidy of the X or Z. The Lyon hypothesis states that in cells with multiple X chromosomes, all but one are inactivated during mammalian embryogenesis. This happens early in embryonic development at random in mammals, except in marsupials and in some extra-embryonic tissues of some placental mammals, in which the father's X chromosome is always deactivated. In men and women with more than one X chromosome, the number of Barr bodies visible at interphase is always one less than the total number of X chromosomes.

This depends on sexual differentiation among organisms - even bacteria and single celled eukaryotic algae show sexual differentiation - more complex organisms show phenotypic dimorphism between males and femalesphenotypic dimorphism Sexual dimorphism is a phenotypic difference between males and females of the same species, meaning that there are obvious differences between the male and female of the species. The main differences are the presence or absence of reproductive organs. How is your sex determined? Sex is characterized by differences in sex chromosomes - genes determine sexual differences (found on the sex chromosomes) - however there is often some interaction between genes on autosomes and X/Y chromosomes ex. XX and XY in humans - X and Y= heteromorphic chromosomes Sex Chromosomes XX is female, XY is male - this means that the male chromosome determines the sex of the offspringhomogametous zygotes with two X chromosomes, which result in female offspringheterogametous zygotes with one X and one Y chromosome, which results in male offspring How many levels of sexual differentiation are there? In multicellular animals, there are 2 distinguishing levels of differentiation Primary sexual differentiation This involves only the gonads where gametes are produced and differentiated - this is in the embryonic stage while the zygote is developing Secondary sexual differentiation This involved the overall appearance of the organism - Aka puberty! -"

"text": "\"In the majority of cases, two copies of each chromosome — and therefore, two copies of each gene — arrive in every fertilized egg. However, in some cases, one of the genes within a pair is somehow switched \"\"off\"\"; this occurs because of the process known as imprinting. Whether or not particular genes are inactivated in this way depends on which parent the genes were inherited from. In such cases, a gene is only expressed when it comes from the designated or \"\"correct\"\" parent; thus, if a person receives this particular gene from his or her other parent, the gene is permanently turned off. Another way in which one gene copy can be turned off is by inactivation of the entire X chromosome. Although they sometimes yield similar results, imprinting and X inactivation are regulated by completely different mechanisms. Discovery of Imprinting Genomic imprinting, also referred to as gametic or parental imprinting, was discovered almost simultaneously by two laboratories in 1984. Prior to the publications of Mc Grath and Solter (1984) and Surani et al. ( 1984), conflicting results existed about whether both parental genomes were required for normal development. Most laboratories were unable to generate viable embryos from activated oocytes."

Most people with the flu get better on their own. But it can be serious. It can cause complications and sometimes even death. Getting the flu vaccine every year is the best way to lower your chance of getting the flu and spreading it to others. The flu vaccine causes antibodies to develop in your body about two weeks after you get it. These antibodies provide protection against infection with the viruses that are in the vaccine. There are different types of flu shots, including some especially for people 65 and older. Ask your health care provider which one is right for you. Everyone 6 months of age and older should get a flu vaccine every season."

Such individuals, of course, usually are female but also can be Klinefelter syndrome males. The reason for the formation of the Barr body is one of dosage compensation, which is to say that most of the genes associated with the X chromosome are expressed to an appropriate extent when found in a single copy, i.e., as one sees in males. To assure that females do not receive a double dosage of the associated gene products, only one X chromosome is transcribed. Which X chromosome is converted to a Barr body occurs randomly during embryo development and can be a different X chromosome in different tissues. Once converted, the Barr body retains that status through mitotic divisions. Females, as a consequence, are considered to be mosaics with regard to X chromosome inactivation, with some tissues expressing one X chromosome and different tissues the other. The classic example of such mosaicism is seen with calico cats, where fur coloration is a sex-linked trait . For more on this topic, see Wikipedia and Google . Contact web master ."

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Biology What is a \"\"barr body\"\"? Follow Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Barr body The condensed, single X-chromosome, appearing as a densely staining mass, that is found in the nuclei of somatic cells of female mammals. It is named after its discoverer, Murray Barr, and is derived from one of the two X-chromosomes which becomes inactivated. The number of Barr bodies is thus one less than the number of X-chromosomes. Barr bodies are commonly referred to as sex chromatin. The human abnormalities called Kleinefelter's syndrome and Turner's syndrome both result from an unnatural presence or absence of a Barr body. In the case of the former, the male possesses a Barr body that it would normally not have, and in the latter case the Barr body is absent. Females usually have one Barr body; males usually have none. Presence of Barr bodies in a buccal smear was introduced by the International Olympic Committee Medical Commission as a sex determination (gender verification) test in 1968. This test, known as the Barr test or buccal smear sex test, was responsible for excluding about one female competitor in 400 from international competition."

During the S-phase of each cell cycle ( Figure 1 ), all of the DNA in a cell is duplicated in order to provide one copy to each of the daughter cells after the next cell division. The process of duplicating DNA is called DNA replication, and it takes place by first unwinding the duplex DNA molecule, starting at many locations called DNA replication origins, followed by an unzipping process that unwinds the DNA as it is being copied.

Glucose is a type of sugar your body uses for energy. Electrolytes keep your body's fluids in balance. They also help keep your body working normally, including your heart rhythm, muscle contraction, and brain function. The kidneys help keep the right balance of water, salts, and minerals in the blood. Kidneys also filter out waste and other unneeded substances from the blood. If you take any medicines, such as diuretics for high blood pressure, your doctor may order a basic metabolic panel to see if the medicines are affecting your kidneys or your electrolytes. Your doctor also may order this panel as part of a regular health examination or to help diagnose a medical condition.

Little, if any, formaldehyde remains in the final products that consumers use. Building and Construction Formaldehyde-based resins are used to manufacture composite and engineered wood products used extensively in cabinetry, countertops, moldings, furniture, shelving, stair systems, flooring, wall sheathing, support beams and trusses and many other household furnishings and structures. Glues that use formaldehyde as a building block are exceptional bonding agents, delivering high-quality performance that is extremely economical. The wood products industry uses formaldehyde-based resins in a wide range of panel and board products, enabling sustainable use of forestry resources and minimizing waste. For example, composite wood panels are typically made from recovered wood waste that would otherwise be burned or disposed of in a landfill. Health Care Applications Formaldehyde has a long history of safe use in the manufacture of vaccines, anti-infective drugs and hard-gel capsules. For example, formaldehyde is used to inactivate viruses so they don’t cause disease, such as the influenza virus in making the influenza vaccine. Personal Care and Consumer Products Formaldehyde-based chemistry is essential in the production of many personal care and consumer items. These products may contain formaldehyde-releasing ingredients, which act as a preservative to kill microorganisms and prevent growth of bacteria and other pathogens, extending product shelf life."

A: Quick Answer Normal BUN, blood urea nitrogen, levels indicate proper functioning of the liver and kidneys, according to Mayo Clinic. The liver produces nitrogen when it breaks down protein, which along with other chemicals forms urea. Urea enters the bloodstream and moves to the kidneys, where it is filtered from the blood.

Chemistry tests fall into two broad categories, routine (also called general) and immunochemistry. This article will address routine chemistry testing in a medical practice laboratory and the next installment in this series will cover immunochemistry testing. Routine chemistries encompass those tests that are measured by any of four methods: Mixing serum or plasma with chemicals that create color when they react with whatever is being measured. Measuring the effects of enzymes on substrates. The use of Ion Selective Electrodes (to measure electrolytes like sodium and potassium. ) Nephelometry, which is creating precipitates that cause cloudiness and measuring that cloudiness (used much less frequently used than the other three methods. ) The routine chemistry tests that are most often ordered in a physician office lab (POL) are those in these CPT-defined test panels: Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (14 tests)Basic Metabolic Panel (8 tests)Hepatic Function Panel (7 – 9 tests)Lipid Panel (4-6 tests)The most commonly ordered individual tests are glucose, potassium, and total cholesterol.

And this goes back to a question that I got in from a listener, Valerie, who was asking about maybe covering some of the different labs and some of the different panels that are drawn regularly and what they cover, and what types of things are we looking for. Episode Content But I thought maybe on top of that we might want to look at specifically what the different-colored blood tubes are used for, and also the mystery of which tubes get drawn in which order. And this seems to be one of those things that different agencies subscribe to different standards. And so I did a little bit of searching and actually came up with a standard that comes from the NCCLS, the National Council for Clinical Laboratory Standards. They have since changed their name and gone to an international organization. But this standard came out in 2004 and I think it still applies today, at least from what I can find. This seems to be the last main standard for orders of blood draw. So we’ll look at that here. Colors of Blood Tubes But first, let’s look at the blood tubes; the colors of the blood tubes."

"text": "How Does Thyroid Hormone Affect Cholesterol, LDL, and the Triglycerides? Published December 7 2015Having a thyroid hormone imbalance will have an effect on the lipids, which in turn can usually be seen on a lipid panel. As a result, balancing the thyroid hormone levels will almost always cause positive changes on a lipid panel, although there are times when other factors can lead to these deviations. What I plan on doing in this blog post is to talk about the impact of thyroid hormone on the total cholesterol, LDL, and some of the other basic lipid markers. I’m not going to discuss the effect of thyroid hormone on other lipid markers such as LDL particles and lipoprotein a, but I probably will write a future article that talks about these markers. Before talking about some of the individual markers on a lipid panel, I’d like to briefly explain how thyroid hormones affect lipid metabolism. An enzyme called 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-Co A) reductase is important for the synthesis of cholesterol. In fact, when someone is given a statin to lower their cholesterol, these drugs inhibit this enzyme. Thyroid hormone plays an important role in regulating HMG-Co A reductase, and it also affects the metabolism of LDL and HDL. Total cholesterol."

If you have diabetes you may have several blood glucose tests each day; this will help to ensure your blood sugar levels are at a safe and stable level. Calcium Tests are sometimes carried out to check the levels of calcium in the blood are at a safe and normal level. This test is usually recommended for people with symptoms of kidney, bone and nerve conditions. Electrolytes Electrolyte tests are used to determine the levels of electrolytes in the blood. Electrolytes are very important, as they help to move nutrients around the body, maintain the p H balance in the body and ensure the water levels in the body are healthy and stable. An electrolyte imbalance can be symptomatic of a number of different health conditions, so many people are advised to have electrolyte tests.

"text": "What Do Pelicans Eat | Pelicans Diet & Feeding Behavior Pelicans are the large water birds belong to the family of Pelecanidae. Much of the pelican’s diet consists of fish which can be as long as 30 cm. It’s only sometimes that pelicans rely on turtles, amphibians, crustaceans, and birds. They are most likely to prey on aquatic animals which they catch at the water surface. What Do Pelicans Eat White pelicans in particular will prey on fish in deep water. When fish are available in small schools pelicans will encircle these fish to make them go into the shallow. Moments later they will beat their wings on the water surface to scoop up the prey. The entire strategy takes only one minute during which the other birds are likely to join pelicans at lunch. One way to catch big fish is that pelicans pick them with the tip of the bill in order to toss up in the air and then open the gullet to swallow. Pelicans are often seen snatching prey from the mouth of other water birds."

Bone broth is good in terms of taste and the useful vitamins, minerals, gelatin, and collagen it brings to our bodies. Nom Nom Paleo inspired me to look at bone broth, first with her recipe for slow cooker bone broth and then her own pressure cooker bone broth. I am sharing my recipe with you after making my third pot. I think I have found the secret to good bone broth – canned anchovies! You might think anchovies an odd choice, but anchovies completely disappear when heated and leave behind a great salty, nutty flavor that adds depth to the bone broth. After experimenting with including vegetables, I am now making my bone broth with bones, spices, anchovies, and water only. I have been making bone broth with whatever mix of bones I have in the freezer. After eating a meal, I save the bones in a 1-gallon freezer bag – chicken, beef, pork, lamb, turkey, etc. I don’t sort my bones, so my flavor varies depending on the quantities of the different bones I have saved."

Worcestershire sauce is a tasty, dark brown liquid traditionally used to flavour meats, fish, Welsh rarebit (toast covered with a cheese and beer sauce), and Caesar salads. It’s also added to certain cocktails, such as the Caesar and the Bloody Mary. The sauce is a complex mixture of many different ingredients, including anchovies, tamarind extract, molasses, onions, garlic, spices, and vinegar. Its rich taste is produced by fermentation. The first commercial Worcestershire sauce was created in 1837 by two chemists named John Wheeley Lea and William Henry Perrins. They lived in the city of Worcester in England. The most common brand of the sauce today is known as \"\"Lea and Perrins\"\" Worcestershire sauce."

Purines are broken down into uric acid and excess uric acid in the bloodstream can lead to the development of urate crystals that buildup in joints and tissue and cause gout. ADVERTISEMENTWe can control the amount of purines we introduce into the body by eliminating or reducing the amount of purine rich foods we eat. Alcoholism, diabetes, and renal failure can also lead to the development of gout. Natural Gout Treatment: Low Purine Foods A natural gout treatment would consist in part of the reduction of foods that contain purines. Purines exist in meat and also in some plant based foods, but the purines in meat and plant based foods have different affects on the body. Two large studies done by Hyon K. Choi concluded that eating high amounts of meat and seafood was associated with an increased risk of gout. Surprisingly consuming higher amounts of dairy products was associated with a decreased risk of gout. Moderate intake of purine-rich vegetables or vegetable protein was not associated with an increased risk of gout. The average daily diet for an adult in the U. S. contains approximately 600-1,000 milligrams of purines."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Fishing down the food web Fishing down the food web is the process whereby fisheries in a given ecosystem, \"\"having depleted the large predatory fish on top of the food web, turn to increasingly smaller species, finally ending up with previously spurned small fish and invertebrates\"\". [ 1]The process was first demonstrated by the fisheries scientist Daniel Pauly and others in an article published in the journal Science in 1998. [ 2] Large predator fish with higher trophic levels have been depleted in wild fisheries. As a result, the fishing industry has been systematically \"\"fishing down the food web\"\", targeting fish species at progressively decreasing trophic levels. The trophic level of a fish is the position it occupies on the food chain. The article establishes the importance of the mean trophic level of fisheries as a tool for measuring the health of ocean ecosystems. In 2000, the Convention on Biological Diversity selected the mean trophic level of fisheries catch, renamed the \"\"Marine Trophic Index\"\" (MTI), as one of eight indicators of ecosystem health. However, many of the world's most lucrative fisheries are crustacean and mollusk fisheries, which are at low trophic levels and thus result in lower MTI values.

Habitat Typically found offshore but will come close to shore, sometimes entering lagoons or coral atolls. Frequents shallow water areas near bays and upwelling coastal areas near continental drop-offs, sometimes during seasonal plankton blooms. Physical Characteristics Size The whale shark is the largest fish in the world and the largest fish known to have lived on this planet. Because of its size and cartilaginous skeleton, it does not fossilize well and in life it is very difficult to weigh accurately. The largest accurately measured whale shark was 61.7 feet (18.8 m). The average length is between 18 and 32.8 feet (5.5 - 10 m). Newborns measure 21 to 25 inches (53 - 64 cm) long. Body Composition Whale shark has a broad, flat head, relatively small eyes, five large gill slits, two dorsal fins, two long pectoral fins, two pelvic fins, one anal fin and a large sweeping tail. It has a vestigial spiracle behind the eye, which is an evolutionary remnant of its common ancestry with bottom-dwelling (benthic) carpet sharks."

It is found along the Pacific coast of North America, from the U. S. state of Oregon to Mazatlán in Mexico. Typically measuring 1.2–1.5 m (3.9–4.9 ft) long, this slender-bodied shark is immediately identifiable by the striking pattern of black saddle-like markings and large spots over its back, from which it derives its common name. Large schools of leopard sharks are a common sight in bays and estuaries, swimming over sandy or muddy flats or rock-strewn areas near kelp beds and reefs. They are most common near the coast, in water less than 4 m (13 ft) deep. Active-swimming predators, groups of leopard sharks often follow the tide onto intertidal mudflats to forage for food, mainly clams, spoon worms, crabs, shrimp, bony fish, and fish eggs. Most leopard sharks tend to remain within a particular area rather than undertaking long movements elsewhere, which has led to genetic divergence between populations of sharks living in different regions. This species is aplacental viviparous, meaning that the young hatch inside the uterus and are nourished by yolk. From March to June, the female gives birth to as many as 37 young after a gestation period of 10–12 months."

This means that they will feed on any animal that they can easily kill and any plant material that is available. Most bears eat more plant material than meat. Two exceptions to this are the Polar Bear, which eats mainly fish, and the Giant Panda, which eats mainly bamboo (bamboo is actually a type of grass). Bears will feed on any animal they can, sometimes eating small insects. They usually attack small animals as they are easier to hunt and kill."

Because the polar bear's body requires a diet based on large amounts of seal fat, they are the most carnivorous member of the bear family. Food can be hard to come by for polar bears for much of the year. The bear puts on most of its yearly fat reserves between late April and mid-July to maintain its weight in the lean seasons. The food-free season can last 3 to 4 months -- or even longer in areas like Canada's Hudson Bay.

Although all brown bears in the region are regularly referred to as grizzly bears, it is the subspecies \"\"arctos horribilis\"\" that is the true grizzly. Grizzly bears get their name from the \"\"grizzled\"\" appearance of their fur. Each hair is lighter at the tip than at the base and gives a variegated look. Grizzlies are also called \"\"silver-tips\"\" for this reason. While that is the meaning of the bears common name, its scientific name, \"\"horribilis\"\", refers to the supposed grisly (or horrible) nature of the animal. There are numerous subspecies of brown bear which has the widest distribution of any of the eight bear species. They live in forested northern regions of North America, Europe and Asia, and can vary widely in size depending on regional availability of food, climate, and habitat. The largest of the brown bears is the Alaskan Kodiak bear. These enormous creatures often top 1,600 pounds and are as big as polar bears."

The Oregon Zoo curator in charge of its two polar bears is hosting a talk Feb. 24 on the fate of the kings of the arctic, whose habitat and food sources have dwindled as polar ice melts. I spoke with Cutting about how the zoo is working to save polar bears struggling to cope with climate change. Why are polar bears relevant to Oregonians? Portlanders are so conscious of their footprint and how their actions influence wildlife and wild places. While polar bears don't live in a place where a lot of people live, they're impacted greatly by how people live their lives. We know climate change is substantially influenced by human-caused emissions and every single one of us has the ability to do something about that, no matter where you live. We talk about climate change so much, but are there other factors playing into polar bears' struggle? For years, overhunting and oil development and human encroachment on habitat were the big threats. But all of that has become completely secondary to the fact that the ice beneath their feet is literally melting away."

"text": "Looking for the best all-natural granola that money can buy? Then get Bear Naked!This has nothing to do with taking off your clothes – Bear Naked is the company that makes the granola! If the price is any factor, this is what you call a premium granola! ( It’s typically $5-6 for a 12 oz bag, one of the highest priced cereals out there. ) For the price you do get a granola that is made with all-natural ingredients and whole grains, vegan friendly, certified Kosher, and even hand-crafted in small batches with REAL freeze-dried blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and hearty nuts. Once you have some, you see how good it is! They have a lot of good flavors, but today we’ll look at a classic, Peanut Butter & Jelly. The big question on my mind was, “is this going to taste like a real pb&j sandwich?”You know what, this peanut butter & jelly flavor does remind me of a good ol’ pb&j sandwich! You can see it contains whole grains, peanuts, and dried raspberries (just like bread, peanut butter, and jelly.) So if you take a handful and chew on it, and close your eyes and flashback to childhood, visions of fresh pb&j sandwiches should dance in your mind!After consuming a few bags of this stuff, whether straight from the bag, with milk, or with yogurt, there was a clear winner."

How about this one: Is it a Falsehood that Humans did NOT evolve from Apes???? Yes and no. Humans descend from a population of primates from which other apes also descended (minimally the two species of living chimps) and which was part of the panoply of late Miocene forms, all related to each other, that we call apes. So yes, humans evolved from apes. There are people who don’t believe that. They, creationists, think that apes are apes and humans came from somewhere else, like the Garden of Eden or Mud or whatever. ( This may depend on which flavor of creationist and, frankly, which humans the creationist is talking about … by some creationist theories, white people came from Eden, while various brown people came from various mud, and Jews came from monkeys.) When creationists object to the phrase “Humans evolved from apes” evolutionary biologists tend to respond with a long list of reasons that we should assume that humans and chimps DID evolve from a common ancestor which was an ape of some kind. People who are not creationists, but still prefer some kind of human exceptionalism, may not like the phrase because it strongly implies that humans are apes, and they may prefer that we be thought of as different from apes."

It hasn’t happened and it never will. The fascination we hunters have with big bears is ancient and primal; a combination of “fear” and “facing fear,” another black bear dichotomy. It’s akin to climbing up onto the roof of a building and looking over the edge, the higher the building (the bigger the bear), and the deeper the fascination.

The giant panda is a national treasure in China and is therefore protected by law in its bamboo forest home. This unique bear has long been revered by the Chinese and can be found in Chinese art dating back thousands of years. The Chinese call their beloved pandas large bear-cats. Giant pandas have also fascinated people living outside of China; French Missionary Pere Armand David first described them for science in 1869. Now, more than 100 years later, the worldwide love for pandas has been combined with international efforts to keep them from becoming extinct. How did the panda get its colors? We aren't exactly sure. One theory is that pandas developed the contrasting black and white colors over time so they would stand out in the forest and be able to find each other to mate. Another idea is that the broad blockings of contrasting color may serve to camouflage the panda in the bamboo or treetops."

What purpose does it serve?1 Answer Jim Miller, Have been selling pepper spray since 2001Answered Jun 23, 2016 · Author has 62 answers and 17.8k answer views Bear spray smells like the hot pepper product it is made from and the tri-chloroethylene used in its manufacture. The “Trike” smells like most oil-based solvents (like car engine oil and the like) but after a brief notice of the odor your olfactory senses will be overwhelmed and you will only feel irritation and will not smell anything for awhile. Bear spray serves to repel bears if they are attacking you. The bear’s sense of smell is very sensitive. To successfully repel a bear, you would need to spray it to land some of the liquid mist on the head area of the animal. The eyes and mucous membranes will be stung and irritated to the degree the animal would leave the area. No permanent harm is done. In order for a spray to be labelled “bear spray” it must be approved by the EPA. EPA requirements include formula minimums of 1.0 percent capsaicin and minimum spray range requirements."

"text": "Open Up: Creating Interior Windows in Load Bearing Walls Jan 27 20137There are a lot of creative uses for interior windows, like the glass brick light window in this elegant example. Our house is basically a glorified cave: it’s a townhouse with neighbours on three of four sides. Don’t get me wrong, there are advantages – but lots of natural light is definitely not one of them. Our renovation ideas have been united by a common theme: light – adding more of it and making the most of the daylight that does manage to come in. Since the International Style was born in the 1920s, architecture has become more and more about bringing daylight into home interiors, and in my own humble way I try to embrace this philosophy. Interior openings can also create a sense of connectedness and flow, uniting spaces within a house. This article will provide a general guide to major steps you’ll take if you want to create an interior window of your own. At first I was really intimidated by the idea of cutting a hole in a wall that holds the rest of the house up, and I would definitely recommend you consult a building engineer if you are not 100% sure what to do or that it’s going to work. I was lucky – I have people with experience on my side: my Dad and my husband. As always, it’s better to be safe."

"text": "\"Tatiana Estévez, I used to be an aromatherapist and I still make my own perfumes Updated Mar 12, 2015 · Featured on Slate · Upvoted by Ashraf Osman, olfactory art curator, Scent Culture Institute co-founder, IAO advisor · Author has 1.1k answers and 4.6m answer views The base of any perfume you can buy in the shops will be the 'perfume essence', this is what actually makes the smell. This is a combination of essential oils (cedar wood, lime, sandalwood etc), absolutes (jasmine, rose, neroli), animal extracts (musk, ambergris) and synthetic fragrance (this could be nearly anything). This base perfume essence would actually not be that attractive by itself and in some cases would be actually unpleasant. It is too concentrated, so it needs to be diluted and this is done with alcohol and water. Fragrances come in many forms and have many different names but generally the main four categories are as follows: Perfume: The perfume you see in the store is not the pure perfume essence and has been diluted. However it is the most concentrated of all the fragrance options and it is the most expensive for this reason. It tends to be slightly oilier and will typically contain 15-40% pure perfume extract. It has a slightly thicker, oilier consistency. It tends to be sold with 'stopper bottles' and not sprays. It is too strong to spray all over (and too expensive)."

"text": "\"How to Bait Bears And What To Useby Naomi K. Shapiro In Wisconsin bait itself must be totally concealed and closed, with rocks, or natural logs over it. This picture was taken at a bait station in Canada where the baiting rules are much different. Bear baiting is a \"\"tricky subject.\"\" Rules and regs vary greatly from state-to-state, and indeed, can vary from year to year – even season to season. Be cautious, and check out your state or area regs carefully before baiting. In a previous article we mentioned that you want to start baiting in early spring. In Wisconsin, that means after April 14th - - not earlier, and you can't bait from the day after the previous bear season closes until April 14. But that's Wisconsin. Your state or area may very well be different. We can't overemphasize the need for strict adherence to baiting regulations."

Where Do Bears Live? Black bears or their relatives live on all continents except Africa, Australia, and Antarctica. Approximately 630,000–725,000 American black bears live in 42 states. They also inhabit 11 Canadian provinces. Grizzly bears (also known as brown bears) and polar bears inhabit North America too. The most common bear in Idaho is the Ursus Americanus, otherwise known as the American black bear. Baby bears are called cubs, female bears are called sows, and male bears are called boars.

"text": "Black Bear The black bear, Ursus Americanus, is the smallest of the North American bears, with an average weight of 250 pounds, a normal adult weight of 125-600 pounds and the heaviest weight recorded of 803 pounds. The adult male is generally 33% larger than the female. The height is normally 2.5-3 feet measured from the bottom of the paw flat on the ground to the highest point on the shoulder. The length of a black bear is measured from the tip of the nose to the tip of the tail and averages 6 feet. The black bear is thought to have migrated over the Bering Land Bridge some 500,000 years ago from Asia. It is the only bear that is found only in the Americas, and thru its amazing adaptation abilities, it has thrived even near populated areas. A black bear will go to great lengths to avoid contact with humans, but has been known to attack when provoked, and on rare occurrence will even initiate an attack. The black bear walks on the soles of its feet, or plantigrade, and has five toes on each foot complete with strong, curved, non-retractable claws. The bears front claws often measure 1 ¼ inches in length, and are used for defense, digging and climbing trees even as an adult. In addition bears have 42 teeth consisting of 12 incisors, 4 canines, 16 premolars and 10 molars."

"text": "\"« Yosemite Ranger Notes Bear Series, Part One: A Bear's Sense of Smell October 01, 2014 Posted by: JG - Park Ranger (Yosemite Valley)When you visit Yosemite National Park, you are likely being smelled by at least one of Yosemite's black bears (Ursus americanus). Whether you're in Yosemite Valley, at Glacier Point, or at the top of Mt. Lyell, you are within the range of a bear's sense of smell. This fact can be attributed to the size of Yosemite's area, the size of the park's bear population, and the bears' amazing sense of smell. Yosemite National Park has an area of 1,169 square miles;in comparison, the State of Rhode Island is 1,214 square miles. Park biologists believe that Yosemite's population of black bears is between 300 and 500 bears. This means, assuming an even distribution of Yosemite's bears, there's one bear every 2.3 to 3.9 square miles. A black bear's sense of smell can easily be measured in miles. Looking at a black bear's head, it's obvious that they have a very large nose. The area inside a black bear's nose, called the nasal mucosa, is 100 times greater than ours. This large nose results in an excellent sense of smell!"

It is important to remember however, that animals pose a unique threat to people when out in the wilderness, as their behaviour is difficult to predict and a confrontation is sometimes unavoidable. Know the risks posed by animals in the wild, as well as the proper steps to take when faced with an angry or hungry animal, to ensure that you don't end up on the wrong side of the food chain. Read on to find out the best ways to co-exist problem-free with our animal friends. Lynn Rogers is a top North American expert on bears and bear safety. Why You Should Know About Bears Bears are beautiful and majestic animals that can be found all across North America. However, they can be a very real threat for anyone living or traveling outdoors. While bears are not normally dangerous animals, they are very opportunistic and will eat practically anything they can get at. This is why it is important to understand the threat posed by a bear encounter, and what you should do should you find yourself in a dangerous situation. Knowing the type of bear you are facing will help you determine what action to take!Lucky To Be Alive Second Lieutenant Jason Sansom of the Canadian Air Force and his wife, Jamie, were visiting Glacier National Park for their first time in June 2000."

"text": "\"WWEExploring the Strange History of Pro Wrestlers Battling Bears Ryan Dilbert August 13, 2015JAMIE-ANDREA YANAK/Associated Press With muzzles over their mouths, their claws removed and their front teeth taken out, surrounded by the ring ropes and a curious crowd, bears once found themselves in the thick of pro wrestling promoters' drives to increase ticket sales. It's a story that played out again and again from as early as the 1800s. In a world already populated by giants and sideshows of the human variety, promoters thought to add to the menagerie of oddities in the ring by pitting bears against wrestlers. And suddenly, a showcase of athleticism and theater became something more dangerous, more exploitative, more unsettling to watch unfold. The animals are said to be natural wrestlers. The stories Bobby the Brain Heenan and Classy Freddie Blassie tell of their own experiences with the massive beasts speak to how surprisingly well the bears took to the mat game. Man-versus-bear matches were still an absurd exhibition, but the bears learned more moves than one would expect: the full nelson, flying mare, collar-and-elbow tie-up. Today, you won't often see that kind of bout unless it's in some backwoods, unofficial capacity. Regulations, a heightened awareness of animal rights and likely a fear over lawsuits stemming from something going terribly wrong has all but wiped out that niche from pro wrestling. The phenomenon's first take off isn't that surprising when you consider wrestling's circus roots."

By investing in orthodontic treatment today with Los Angeles Orthodontist Dr. David Alpan, you will enjoy a future involving a beautiful smile, increased confidence and improved self-esteem. It’s important to note that orthodontic treatment is about more than just appearances. It also is a means of correcting bite issues that can have adverse effects to the way you talk or chew your food and can lead to other oral health problems. Eight Signs That You May Need Braces During your free orthodontic consultation with Dr. Alpan at his Los Angeles orthodontics office, we will look for the following malocclusions, which may indicate that orthodontic treatment is needed: Protruding upper teeth- Excessive protrusion of the upper front teeth, commonly referred to as an overbite or bucked teeth, is the most prevalent orthodontic problem. This can be tested by placing a Popsicle stick behind the upper front teeth when you bite down on your back teeth. If there is plenty of room for the stick, it is likely that you have more than two millimeters of space between the upper front teeth and the lower front teeth. In many patients, overbite is the result of a recessive lower jaw that gives a “weak chin” appearance."

"text": "We get asked this question quite often. It’s a good question because bathroom remodeling is something most people don’t do very often so they don’t know what the average bathroom remodel costs. The problem with answering the question is that every bathroom is a different age and size and each customer has different wants and needs. Every year, Remodeling Magazine publishes a Cost vs. Value Report that shows the average price of different home improvement projects in different areas of the country. Whether you’re looking for the bathroom remodel cost in Greensboro, Winston-Salem, High Point, or your area, the tool can help you find the average cost of a bathroom remodel in your area. The project prices they calculated could serve as a baseline but does not cover all remodeling circumstances. Remodeling Magazine does not provide information about the quality of the products that were used or the condition of the bathroom before it was remodeled. In 2016, Remodeling Magazine estimated that the average cost of a bathroom remodel in the Southeast was a little over $16,000, which included labor and materials. Their job description for updating a 5-by-7 foot bathroom included the following:• 30-by-60-inch porcelain-on-steel tub with 4-by-4-inch ceramic tile surround• Single-lever temperature and pressure-balanced shower control.• Standard white toilet, solid-surface vanity counter with integral sink• Recessed medicine cabinet with light.• Ceramic tile floor.• Vinyl wallpaper.

Applied behavioral analysis (or ABA) is becoming quite a prestigious profession. The practice of behavior analysis is the professional implementation of interventions to consumers that are guided by the principles of behaviorism and the research of both the experimental analysis of behavior and applied behavior analysis. ABA has become popular for many reasons; namely, one reason for the popularization of ABA is the well-documented successes in helping children with autism, and other disorders, learn skills that are more adaptive to their environment. Though ABA is often utilized in cases of early intervention for young clients, it can be effectively implemented throughout the lifespan and for varied populations. Applied behavior analysts have been known to work with such diverse populations as autism, TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury), and the elderly population. What is a Behavior Analyst?

Here are a few examples of potential roles. Someone with the role of Business Analyst may: Document business processes Analyze business processes to identify improvements Gather business requirements that need to be supported by an automated system Analyze business requirements and model them in a way that makes them more easily digestible, etc. Someone with the role of Project Manager may: Document the tasks and activities required to meet specific project milestones Assigned duration and effort to tasks Create a project plan to track progress of the team Document and escalate risks for the project, etc. Someone with the role of Supervisor may: Ensure that direct reports show up to work on time Ensure that direct reports have the tools and resources required to perform their duties Evaluate the work of direct reports Mentor direct reports and assist them with careering planning Make compensation recommendations, etc. In order to more clearly understand what a role is, we can considered what a role is not, by comparing a role to something that is commonly mistaken for a role such as a job title.

We teach them life skills, and they teach us the meaning of life! If you’ve experienced this magic and are looking for a long-term career, you may be wondering how to become a BCBA that specializes in autism. It’s one of the most exciting careers available in our field, but finding a path to get there can be overwhelming and confusing. To help you on that journey, this article explains what it takes to become a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) in Arizona. What is a BCBA? The term “BCBA” stands for Board Certified Behavior Analyst . BCBAs are certified nationally by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB), and behavior analysts in Arizona must also be licensed by the Arizona Board of Psychologist Examiners (which most of us refer to as the “psych board”). Behavior analysts are clinical professionals that specialize in analyzing how human behavior is influenced by the external environment."

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

A new generation of cyber security analysts is already in the making to detect attacks and gather and analyze evidence; these professionals will be asked to keep up with ever-changing threats, as criminals diversify their methods. Cyber Security Analysts can be an asset to any organization for their capability of designing security integration solutions with analytics tools that will aid detection and response to incidents. They utilize behavioral threat assessment tools to consider risks to their organizations’ information systems while also ensuring business continuity and availability of data and services. They identify patterns and expose anomalies that could indicate a cyber attack and then take action, proactively, against malicious events before they develop. Cyber Security Analysts can “truly improve an organization’s security posture” with their know-how and ability to bring data analytics to the forefront to “get a real-time, holistic view of the behavior of the network,” says James Stanger, senior director, products, at Comp TIA.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Not to be confused with Behavioralism. \"\" Behavior analysis\"\" redirects here. For other uses, see Behavior analysis (disambiguation). Behaviorism (or behaviourism) is a systematic approach to understanding the behavior of humans and other animals. It assumes that all behaviors are either reflexes produced by a response to certain stimuli in the environment, or a consequence of that individual's history, including especially reinforcement and punishment, together with the individual's current motivational state and controlling stimuli. Although behaviorists generally accept the important role of inheritance in determining behavior, they focus primarily on environmental factors. Behaviorism combines elements of philosophy, methodology, and psychological theory. It emerged in the late nineteenth century as a reaction to depth psychology and other traditional forms of psychology, which often had difficulty making predictions that could be tested experimentally. The earliest derivatives of Behaviorism can be traced back to the late 19th century where Edward Thorndike pioneered the law of effect, a process that involved strengthening behavior through the use of reinforcement. During the first half of the twentieth century, John B. Watson devised methodological behaviorism, which rejected introspective methods and sought to understand behavior by only measuring observable behaviors and events."

[ 1] [2] It is the applied form of behavior analysis; the other two forms are radical behaviorism (or the philosophy of the science) and the experimental analysis of behavior (or experimental research). [ 1]The name \"\"applied behavior analysis\"\" has replaced behavior modification because the latter approach suggested attempting to change behavior without clarifying the relevant behavior-environment interactions. In contrast, ABA tries to change behavior by first assessing the functional relationship between a targeted behavior and the environment. [ 3] Further, the approach often seeks to develop socially acceptable alternatives to aberrant behaviors. [ 3] [4] [5]ABA has been brought to bear on a wide range of areas and behavioral problems. Examples include such things as early intensive behavioral interventions for children with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD), [6] research on the principles influencing criminal behavior, as well as HIV prevention, [7] conservation of natural resources, [8] education, [9] gerontology, [10]health and exercise, [11] industrial safety, [12] language acquisition, [13] littering, [14]medical procedures, [15] parenting, [16] psychotherapy, seatbelt use, [17]severe mental disorders, [18] sports, [19] substance abuse, phobias, pediatric feeding disorders, and zoo management and care of animals.

[ 1] It is to be distinguished from the experimental analysis of behavior, which focuses on basic experimental research, [6] but it uses principles developed by such research, in particular operant conditioning and classical conditioning. Behavior analysis adopts the viewpoint of radical behaviorism, treating thoughts, emotions, and other covert cognitive activity as behavior that is subject to the same rules as overt responses."

By Michael Gilliland Forecasting is a significant consumer of management time, yet it’s also a significant waste of management time if those efforts are not making the forecast any better. When attention is focused on accuracy alone, it ignores other important considerations such as forecast bias (is it chronically too high or too low?) and forecast uncertainty (the range of likely outcomes). Focus on accuracy also ignores the efficiency and effectiveness of the overall forecasting process. Accuracy is largely determined by the nature of what is being forecast — its “forecastability.” Even costly and heroic efforts may not yield the level of accuracy management desires. Instead of squandering resources in pursuit of the perfect forecast, organizations should seek forecasts as accurate as can reasonably be expected (given the nature of what is being forecast) and to do this as efficiently as possible. Forecast value added (FVA) analysis, a tool in the lean approach to forecasting, can identify waste in the forecasting process, allowing organizations to achieve these objectives. The Limits of Forecast Accuracy Few would argue that perfect forecasts can be generated consistently."

"text": "What Is A Behavior Analyst? What Is A Behavior Analyst? Behavior analysis is a unique method of treatment based on the idea that most important human behavior is learned over time and that it is maintained by consequences within the environment. As a behavior analyst, one must seek to identify problematic behavior and develop a positive replacement. With the input of teachers, family and aides, the Behavior Analyst will help you discover what is maintaining a specified behavior, discover more appropriate replacement behaviors, and set up a plan to teach them. Behavior Analysts also develop a plan to help you acquire a new behavior or improve a skill level. At times, Behavior Analysts treat the client directly and other times may be training significant others (i.e. teachers, family members, etc.). Behavior analysts (BAs) do not make judgments about behavior. They seek to understand behavior as an adaptive response (or way of coping) and suggest ways of adjusting and modifying behaviors to reduce pain and suffering and to increase personal happiness and quality of life.. CAN A BEHAVIOR ANALYST HELP WITH BEHAVIOR CHALLENGES IN THE CLASSROOM? Yes."

It is critical to remember that there is no single program or plan that \"\"is\"\" ABA. Applied Behavior Analysis is simply the application of behavioral principles, to everyday situations, that will, over time, increase or decrease targeted behaviors. ABA has been used to help individuals acquire many different skills, such as language skills, self-help skills, and play skills; in addition, these principles can help to decrease maladaptive behaviors such as aggression, self-stimulatory behaviors, and self-injury. There are many providers of ABA services, many of whom are quite good. Frequently, a parent will choose a qualified provider with whom they share similar philosophical approaches in the application of intensive behavioral interventions. This guide is provided to assist caregivers in their decision-making process. What is ABA? Applied Behavior Analysis is the process of systematically applying interventions based upon the principles of learning theory to improve socially significant behaviors to a meaningful degree, and to demonstrate that the interventions employed are responsible for the improvement in behavior (1). ABA is a discipline that employs objective data to drive decision-making about an individual's program."

Ronald Coase [1960] and Guido Calabresi [1961] are generally identified as the seminal articles but Commons [1924] and Hale [1952] among others had brought economic thinking to the study of law in the 1910s and 1920s. Richard Posner [1973] brought economic analysis of law to the attention of the general legal academy; by the late 1970s, his work had provoked a vigorous controversy. This controversy was both general and doctrinally specific. Posner had claimed generally that the common law was and ought to be efficient. This latter claim provoked a broad controversy about the evaluation of legal rules generally. More specifically, controversy recurred each time economic analysts of law addressed another doctrinal area. More often than not, the introduction of economic analysis into the study of a doctrine transformed that area of scholarship. For a time, economic analysis dominated the study of private law in the United States; arguably it still dominates, though a healthy resurgence of moral accounts of these areas has recently emerged to challenge economic analysis of private law. Many practitioners and critics alike believe that economic analysis of law offers a comprehensive theory of law."

"text": "\"Top-down vs. Bottom-Up Object Database Design Oracle Database Tips by Donald Burleson Object Database Design There is still a great deal of controversy about the best way to approach database design for object-oriented systems. Architecturally, some experts argue that the relational model is not well suited for use in an object-oriented environment while other experts maintain that relational architectures are more suitable for traditional data processing. This has been borne out in the marketplace where we see object-oriented databases used for non-traditional applications such as telephone billing system, while the relational model enjoys predominance in business administration applications. It is important to recognize that many of the \"\"pure\"\" object-oriented database management systems do not exploit many of the features of \"\"classical\"\" database management. To some object-based systems, the only purpose of an object database (OODBMS) is to provide \"\"object persistence\"\" and very little attention is paid to concurrency-control, rollback and recovery, and the other features associated with relational database management. One very important point: A database does not have to support all of the formal constructs of the object-oriented approach to benefit from using the object-oriented approach. For example, while object-oriented programming languages such as C++ allow for the creation of abstract data types, the data types offered in most commercial database systems such as, CHAR, INTEGER, REAL, VARCHAR, and BIT are sufficient for almost all database applications. However, the relational vendors recognize the shortcomings of their architecture. For example, almost every commercial relational database vendor has promised to deliver user-defined data types in their future releases. Oracle, the popular relational database for midrange computers, has announced that Oracle version 8 will support abstract data typing."

"text": "Opiate addiction is a dangerous and potentially deadly condition that requires long term treatment and care in order to promote recovery. It is recognized as a brain disorder that is caused by the use of opiate based drugs such as Oxycontin, morphine, oxycodone, opium, heroin and others. Over time, people become physically dependent on these drugs as the body becomes accustomed to their presence. Opiate addiction can happen to anyone, whether you are taking the drugs because you are prescribed or if you are illegally abusing them. What is Opiate Addiction? Prolonged use of opiates can lead to nerve damage within the brain that causes cells to stop producing their own opiates (natural painkillers known as endorphins). This can lead to an inability for the body to stop pain because there are no endorphins to mask the pain initially. The degeneration of the nerve cells that reduce pain can lead to a physical dependence on opiates as an external supply source. This leads to what is known as opiate addiction. Opiate Withdrawal If you feel dependent on opiates – physically or psychologically – know that treatment can help you recover."

To some, it might come as a surprise that Bill Wilson's innovation, the 12 Steps, aren't the only organized path to recovery. In fact, there are a handful of alternatives, the most reputable of which are listed in the Fix 411, including Life Ring, Moderation Management and Rational Recovery. Some of them require abstinence from drugs and alcohol, while others preach a more moderate approach, often referred to by the umbrella term \"\"harm reduction.\"\" To many members of the \"\"Anonymous\"\" groups—that's AA and NA, et al—these alternative programs are inferior products, ineffective and saddled by controversy. Moderation Management, for instance, has been criticized because, among other things, its founder, Audrey Kishline, renounced the program publicly in 2000 and relapsed, killing two people in a drunk driving accident. Bill Clegg, the memoirist who wrote Portrait of the Addict as a Young Man and 90 Days, said in an April interview with The Fix that harm reduction is \"\"the first stop for people on the way down.\"\" When it fails, he says, \"\"you are driven into a more serious program and probably just keep on going down the stairs until you get to the basement with the rest of us. \"\" Maybe so, although psychologist Tom Horvath, the owner and operator of Practical Recovery, in San Diego, has a very different view."

Addressing veterans of that conflict, he declared:“That war was no tie. Korea was a victory. When 50 million South Koreans live in freedom, a vibrant democracy…a stark contrast to the repression and poverty of the North, that is a victory and that is your legacy. ”This is a fairytale: it wasn’t a victory, or even a tie: the US public was disenchanted with the war long before the armistice, and Truman was under considerable pressure at home to conclude an increasingly unpopular conflict. As for this guff about \"\"democracy\"\": whatever the US was fighting for, from 1950, when the war broke out, to 1953, when it ground to a halt, democracy hardly described the American cause. We were fighting on behalf of Syngman Rhee, the US-educated-and-sponsored dictator of South Korea, whose vibrancy was demonstrated by the large-scale slaughter of his leftist political opponents.

The rapid growth of transcatheter structural heart procedures and the need for increased use of echocardiography as an integral part of the structural heart team, has given rise to the new subspecialty of interventional echocardiography. While interventional echo has been recognized with a growing number of specialty training sessions provided by the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) and Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) annual meetings, the requirements for these specialists are still evolving. With the rise of transcatheter structural heart repair procedures over the past few years, cardiac ultrasound, especially 3-D/4-D transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), has become extremely important to guide these procedures. Operators say it helps with transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TAVR), and is a requirement to perform procedures such as Mitra Clip repairs, left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusions, septal defect closures and transcatheter paravalvular leak repairs. TEE also is expected to be the primary image guidance modality used for transcatheter mitral valve and tricuspid valve repair and replacement technologies now in trials. What are the Qualifications“I think this is the advent of a new subspecialty for us and I think we are still in the development phase of what is needed for the qualifications of the individual that is going to participate in these procedures,” said Rebecca Hahn, M. D., FASE, Columbia University Medical Center, New York, and a key thought leader on interventional echo. She said details of what qualifies someone as an echocardiographer for interventional work still need to be standardized, such as how many and what types of procedures they need before they are considered proficient. She said some large-volume centers like Columbia have created fellowship programs for interventional echo in structural heart, which is helping define the subspecialty.

Deism is the belief in a creator, who made the world but does not take a personal interest in it -- doesn't require worship, answer prayers, judge behavior, or necessarily promise a life after death (unless that was part of the original creation). Deism is a fairly benign belief, because there are no consequences for accepting or rejecting it. Theism is the belief in an active, interventionist god who not only created the world (and some believe fine-tuned it for human use), but also may require worship, answer prayers, judge sinners, and may have created a divine son or other entities to live among humans. Most theists are 100 percent certain their god (s) exist, and have faith in this without any objective, verifiable evidence. There are many theistic religions, each of which insists it is the only true one. Having explained these, let me go on to the other two -isms related to this question: Atheism is the absence of belief in any gods. Based on my 70 years of study and experience as an atheist, I define atheist as: “ one who has recognized that she or he sincerely has no belief in any god or gods .” That definition covers all atheists. Note that it implies nothing about an atheist beyond lack of belief in any gods."

The purpose of therapeutic intervention services is to restore the damaged parent-child relationship. It can be a very useful service in the right cases. But it can also be used for sinister purposes if the other parent is manipulative and destructive. It is important to have an attorney who is experienced in handling these kinds of cases, because therapeutic intervention can become a way that the other parent controls you and continues to alienate the child from you (if parental alienation is suspected). The judge will usually rely exclusively on what the therapeutic interventionist recommends. This places you at a disadvantage, because if you have the wrong therapeutic interventionist, that person may continually recommend more sessions in order to make more money. After all, there is a financial incentive to keep the process going. Also, if the other parent has been engaging in parental alienation, it is rare that a therapeutic interventionist is going to expose that behavior.

This concept is the basic premise of early intervention and the key goal of an early interventionist. Being such an important role in the educational field, a position as an early interventionist is rewarding but challenging and requires not only specific educational requirements but also unique personality traits. Salary One of the important factors to consider about any job prior to pursuing it is the salary associated with the position. While monetary compensation is not everything, particularly with this position, individuals must make career decisions with an acute awareness of all factors. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Occupational Outlook Handbook, individuals in the special education field earned a median salary of $55,060 in 2012, whereas individuals involved with younger age children earned an approximate $52, 480. Beginning Salary Like any other occupation, early intervention is a position with which the pay grade increases with experience. Whereas an individual with a few years of experience can expect to make closer to $50,000, an individual just entering the field typically makes anywhere between $25,000 to $38,000 depending on the location. Key Responsibilities Early intervention is considered a specific sector of special education. This form of intervention is actually the first interaction any family has with the special education system and is designed to identify and serve children who are at risk for developing deficiencies to prevent delays in development and learning as much as possible."

"text": "\"Autism Q & A: What is Applied Behavior Analysis?by Dawn Hendricks, Ph. D., Susan Palko, M. Ed. and Adam Dreyfus, MA, BCBAApplied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a scientific approach to understanding behavior. ABA refers to a set of principles that focus on how behaviors change, or are affected by the environment, as well as how learning takes place. The term behavior refers to skills and actions needed to talk, play, and live. While these principles impact everyone each day, they can be applied systematically through interventions to help individuals learn and apply new skills in their daily lives. ABA requires the implementation of established principles of learning, behavioral strategies, and environmental modifications to improve and teach new behaviors. In practice, implementation must be systematic so teachers can identify how behavior can be changed and understand how learning occurred. The ultimate goal of ABA is to establish and enhance socially important behaviors. Such behaviors can include academic, social, communication, and daily living skills; essentially, any skill that will enhance the independence and/or quality of life for the individual."

"text": "\"How to Fight Those Addiction Triggers By Dawn Roberts 03/17/15“The urge to drink or drug is not an enemy to be summarily vanquished but a signal to ferret out the root cause.” – Lance Dodes, M. D. Shutterstock Triggers and addiction are inexorably linked. Even so, the chain reaction of craving, urges and relapse can be broken. First, one has to develop the ability to identify the unique triggers that precede a fall. The stressors can be simple or complex. The experience is often a shock. It may seem to come out of the clear blue or reveal itself as a growing sense of unease that intensifies. Psychiatrist Dr. Chad Coren defines a trigger as “Any high-risk situation or stressor that sparks off a thought, feeling, or action to use drugs or alcohol. This spark, which is experienced as a temptation to use, is called a 'craving' or 'urge.' Triggers lead to cravings, and urges to use."

"text": "\"Political Philosophy: Methodology Political philosophy begins with the question: what ought to be a person's relationship to society? The subject seeks the application of ethical concepts to the social sphere and thus deals with the variety of forms of government and social existence that people could live in – and in so doing, it also provides a standard by which to analyze and judge existing institutions and relationships. Although the two are intimately linked by a range of philosophical issues and methods, political philosophy can be distinguished from political science. Political science predominantly deals with existing states of affairs, and insofar as it is possible to be amoral in its descriptions, it seeks a positive analysis of social affairs – for example, constitutional issues, voting behavior, the balance of power, the effect of judicial review, and so forth. Political philosophy generates visions of the good social life: of what ought to be the ruling set of values and institutions that combine men and women together. The subject matter is broad and connects readily with various branches and sub-disciplines of philosophy including philosophy of law and of economics. This introduction skims the most relevant theories that the student of political philosophy is likely to encounter. The article covers Liberalism, Conservativism, Socialism, Anarchism, and Environmentalism. Table of Contents Ethical Foundations Methodological Issues Political Schools of Thought Liberalism Conservatism Socialism Central Ownership The Moral Critique of Capitalism Anarchism Environmentalism Conclusion1. Ethical Foundations Political philosophy has its beginnings in ethics: in questions such as what kind of life is the good life for human beings."

"text": "\"Home | CEE | 1st edition | Public Choice Theory [An updated version of this article can be found at Public Choice in the 2nd edition. ] P ublic choice theory is a branch of economics that developed from the study of taxation and public spending. It emerged in the fifties and received widespread public attention in 1986, when James Buchanan, one of its two leading architects (the other was his colleague Gordon Tullock), was awarded the Nobel Prize in economics. Buchanan started the Center for Study of Public Choice at George Mason University, and it remains the best-known locus of public choice research. Others include Florida State University, Washington University (St. Louis), Montana State University, the California Institute of Technology, and the University of Rochester. Public choice takes the same principles that economists use to analyze people's actions in the marketplace and applies them to people's actions in collective decision making. Economists who study behavior in the private marketplace assume that people are motivated mainly by self-interest. Although most people base some of their actions on their concern for others, the dominant motive in people's actions in the marketplace—whether they are employers, employees, or consumers—is a concern for themselves. Public choice economists make the same assumption—that although people acting in the political marketplace have some concern for others, their main motive, whether they are voters, politicians, lobbyists, or bureaucrats, is self-interest. In Buchanan's words the theory \"\"replaces... romantic and illusory... notions about the workings of governments [with]... notions that embody more skepticism. \"\""

Who needs more support? What kind of support is needed and how will it be delivered? Most decisions within the framework of multi-tier system of supports (MTSS) are made by teams—building leadership teams, student support teams, or grade-level teams. These teams may or may not use a deliberate decision-making process driven by data, but even if they do, a variety of factors, such as lack of consensus, the restrictions of the building schedule, the skills of available interventionists, and the amount of resources available to meet student needs can distract the team from its task. That can be a problem when the success of MTSS implementation depends upon making good decisions. This first in a two-part series of articles addresses the complexity of MTSS decision making and identifies critical decision points within Tier 1 (universal or core instruction for all students) at the building level. The building level refers to the school unit that is implementing MTSS (e.g. an elementary or middle school), as opposed to the larger district unit."

"text": "\"A - A +What Do Red and White Blood Cell Counts Mean Home Medical Published: 2013-08-25 (Revised/Updated 2017-04-06) : Author: Thomas C. Weiss : Contact: Disabled World Synopsis: Article provides information regarding red and white blood cell count used to identify diseases and to monitor human health problems. Blood Cell Count The cells that circulate in the bloodstream are generally divided into three types: white blood cells (leukocytes), red blood cells (erythrocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes). A complete blood count (CBC), also known as full blood count (FBC) or full blood exam (FBE) or blood panel, is a test panel requested by a doctor or other medical professional that gives information about the cells in a patient's blood. A scientist or lab technician performs the requested testing and provides the requesting medical professional with the results of the CBC. Abnormally high or low counts may indicate the presence of many forms of disease, and hence blood counts are amongst the most commonly performed blood tests in medicine, as they can provide an overview of a patient's general health status. Main Document\"\"White blood cells contain the immune cells that attack and remove viruses and bacteria in a person's body. \"\" Blood counts may be used to identify diseases and to monitor a person's health. Though the various tests related to blood counts cannot diagnose lymphoma on their own, they can alert a doctor to an issue in a person's body and prompt a doctor to perform appropriate tests. Since the majority of chemotherapy regimens, for example, result in low blood counts in a person, the tests become very important in monitoring a person's health after a diagnosis has been achieved. Blood tests are used to both measure and inspect a person's red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets."

White blood cells, also known as leukocytes, play an important role in the immune system of an individual [2]. They fight infections in a process known as ‘phagocytosis’ where they surround the foreign organisms and destroy them. White blood cells also help in the production, transportation, and distribution of antibodies in order to build the body’s immune system. When an acute infection occurs, the white blood cells produce colony-stimulating factor (CSF), which further stimulates the bone marrow to increase the production of white blood cells. This production can be doubled within a few hours. Therefore, it is normal and welcomed that when a person has a fever or some other systemic symptom, their white blood cell count is elevated.

White Blood Cells and Differentials White blood cells (WBCs), also called leukocytes, defend your body against infections and foreign material. There are five types of WBCs:neutrophilseosinophilsbasophilslymphocytesmonocytes Neutrophils, which fight infections, come in two types: segmented neutrophils and bands. The other types of white blood cells manage allergic responses, kill parasites, and recycle worn-out cells. When your doctor orders a blood test called a Complete Blood Count (CBC), the results will include your White Blood Count (WBC). More detailed information about the components of your WBC is obtained when the doctor orders a CBC with differential, or simply a differential."

What It Means If You Bruise Easily Best Breakfast to Lower Blood Pressure Last updated August 8, 2017 (originally published July 12,2011)By Michael Chang, Contributing Columnist Whenever you are coughing up phlegm from a cold or burning up from a fever, your body has natural response triggers that should help it heal itself. Part of this immune system is white blood cells, scientifically known as leukocytes, which help our bodies fight infections. Normal white blood cell count averages 7,000 cells per micro-liter of blood ( some estimates put the range between 4,000 and 11,000) and circulates in the blood to wherever your body is suffering from an infection. Below this normal range, you do not have enough white blood cells to fight off infection. Having a lower than normal white blood cell count is called \"\"neutropenia\"\" and severe cases are called \"\"agranulocytosis\"\". Neutropenia is more common (56 people out of a million), and agranulocytosis is rare, accounting for only 6 cases out of a million people per year, according to the International Agranulocytosis and Aplastic Anemia Study in Europe. Are there foods or other natural remedies to increase your low white blood cell count? What causes a low white blood cell count? What Does a Low White Blood Cell Count Mean?"

If you’re like most of my patients, you’ve probably looked over the alphabet soup of acronyms and abbreviations in your blood test results and wondered what it all means. So to empower my readers, here is a simplified guide to understanding your blood test results. If you’re interested in playing a more active role in your medical care — something I strongly recommend — then I suggest you save this! The next time you have blood work done; you’ll be able to read the results like a pro!Blood tests, sometimes called blood panels, are one of a physician’s most basic tools. Not that long ago, doctors diagnosed patients through observation and the patients’ answers to questions. Today, we have a wide range of testing options to choose from, with blood tests being among the most basic. Blood tests allow a doctor to see a detailed analysis of any disease markers, the nutrients and waste products in your blood as well as how various organs (e.g., kidneys and liver) are functioning. Below, I’ve explained some of the commonly measured indicators of health. During a physical examination, your doctor will often draw blood for chemistry and complete blood count (CBC) tests as well as a lipid profile, which measures cholesterol and related elements. Here is a brief explanation of the abbreviations used in measurements followed by descriptions of several common test components."

Hgb is the pigment part of the erythrocyte, and the oxygen-carrying part of the blood. Normal Values: males: 12-17 grams/100ml females: 11-15 grams/100ml Clinical Implications: A Low hemoglobin level indicates anemia. Estimates of Hgb in each RBC are moderately important when determining the total blood Hgb. However, hemoglobin findings are even more dependent upon the total number of RBC's. In other words, for the diagnosis of anemia, the number of RBC's is as important as the hemoglobin level. Blood hemoglobin level has become a \"\"routine\"\" lab test for most patients admitted to hospitals today. Hgb is obviously important for the diagnosis of anemia and hemorrhage. It is equally important for diagnosing many lesser known diseases. The test can be performed upon capillary blood, such as drawn from the finger stick."

"text": "\"Beta blockers Beta blockers, also called beta-adrenergic blocking agents, treat a variety of conditions, such as high blood pressure and migraines. Find out more about this class of medication. By Mayo Clinic Staff Beta blockers, also known as beta-adrenergic blocking agents, are medications that reduce your blood pressure. Beta blockers work by blocking the effects of the hormone epinephrine, also known as adrenaline. When you take beta blockers, your heart beats more slowly and with less force, thereby reducing blood pressure. Beta blockers also help blood vessels open up to improve blood flow. Examples of beta blockers Some beta blockers mainly affect your heart, while others affect both your heart and your blood vessels. Which one is best for you depends on your health and the condition being treated. Examples of oral beta blockers include: Acebutolol (Sectral)Atenolol (Tenormin)Bisoprolol (Zebeta)Metoprolol (Lopressor, Toprol-XL)Nadolol (Corgard)Nebivolol (Bystolic)Propranolol (Inderal LA, Inno Pran XL)Uses for beta blockers Doctors prescribe beta blockers to prevent, treat or improve symptoms in a variety of conditions, such as: High blood pressure Irregular heart rhythm (arrhythmia)Heart failure Chest pain (angina)Heart attacks Migraine Certain types of tremors Beta blockers aren't usually prescribed for blood pressure until other medications, such as diuretics, haven't worked effectively. Your doctor may prescribe beta blockers as one of several medications to lower your blood pressure, including angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, diuretics or calcium channel blockers."

Sign up now Can beta blockers cause weight gain? Answers from Sheldon G. Sheps, M. D. Yes. Weight gain can occur as a side effect of some beta blockers, especially the older ones, such as atenolol (Tenormin) and metoprolol (Lopressor, Toprol-XL). The average weight gain is about 2.6 pounds (about 1.2 kilograms). Newer beta blockers, such as carvedilol (Coreg), don't usually cause weight gain as a side effect. Weight may rise in the first weeks of taking the beta blocker and then generally stabilizes. However, the beta blockers that can cause weight gain usually aren't prescribed unless other medications haven't worked, or if you have a specific heart condition that requires taking those medications."

The increase is myocardial contraction is a result of activation of those beta receptors associated with the atria and ventricle (especially the ventricles) while the increases in rate of contraction are due to activation of those receptors associated with the SA and AV nodes as well as the His-Purkinjie system. Effect of Beta Receptor Activation on Myocardial Electrophysiology Increase slope of phase 4 spontaneous depolarization. Increase in maximal rate of phase 0 depolarization. Increase conduction velocity. Decrease refractory period. These electrophysiologic factors contribute to the orderly, rhythmic electrical activity that assures the efficient contractile activity of the heart. In response to beta receptor activation, these parameters increase and the heart beats at a faster rate. However, excess stimulation of the beta receptor by catecholamines can enhance these variables to such an extent that arrhythmias can occur. Rhythm disturbances are a major concern with drugs that activate the beta 1 receptor."

"text": "Beta Blockers and Heart Failure Deirdre Moran, 5th year Medicine Introduction Beta-blockers were traditionally thought to be contraindicated in heart failure due to their negative inotropic properties. However, recent research has revealed the beneficial effects of treating heart failure patients with beta-blockers. What is Heart Failure? Heart failure is a clinical condition in which the heart is unable to pump sufficient blood around the body to meet its metabolic needs. It is characterised by abnormalities of left ventricular function and neurohormonal regulation, exercise intolerance, shortness of breath, fluid retention and reduced longevity. 1 Heart failure can be due to systolic or diastolic left ventricular dysfunction. Most patients with heart failure have primarily systolic dysfunction. In two-thirds of patients with systolic dysfunction, the cause is coronary artery disease.2 However, patients may also have nonischaemic causes of cardiomyopathy such as hypertension, valvular heart disease, myocarditis, systemic disease, toxins, alcohol/drug abuse, or idiopathic cardiomyopathy. Depressed left ventricular ejection fraction (<40%) is the hallmark of systolic dysfunction. Diastolic dysfunction is defined as normal or preserved rest systolic function in the presence of heart failure signs and/or symptoms."

Create a free account to save it. Create a free account Maybe later Sort RAAS = Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System What does RAAS do? A hormone system that regulates blood pressure and water (fluid) balance. When blood volume is low, juxtaglomerular cells in the kidneys secrete renin directly into circulation. Plasma renin then carries out the conversion of angiotensinogen released by the liver to angiotensin I. Angiotensin I is subsequently converted to angiotensin II by ACE found in the lungs. Angiotensin II is a potent vaso-active peptide that causes blood vessels to constrict, resulting in increased blood pressure. Angiotensin II also stimulates the secretion of the hormone aldosterone from the adrenal cortex. Aldosterone causes the tubules of the kidneys to increase the reabsorption of sodium and water into the blood. This increases the volume of fluid in the body, which also increases blood pressure."

Beta-blockers are one of the most widely prescribed classes of drugs to treat hypertension ( high blood pressure) and are a mainstay treatment of congestive heart failure. Beta-blockers work by blocking the effects of epinephrine (adrenaline) and slowing the heart 's rate, thereby decreasing the heart’s demand for oxygen. Long-term use of beta-blockers helps manage chronic heart failure."

In turn, they reduce stress on certain parts of the body, such as the heart and the blood vessels in the brain. They lower blood pressure, protect against heart attacks, and can improve the outlook for people with heart failure. They are prescribed for several different conditions including high blood pressure, angina, some abnormal heart rhythms, heart, anxiety, migraine, glaucoma, and overactive thyroid symptoms. They are also sometimes known as beta antagonists, beta-adrenergic blocking agents, or beta-adrenergic antagonists. Pharmacologist James Black won the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine for his development in 1964 of the first receptor-blocking drug, propranolol, which is still in use today. Fast facts about beta-blockers Beta-blockers are prescribed in conditions where the heart rate needs to be slowed. Doctors commonly recommend beta-blockers for patients with irregular heartbeats, angina, and high blood pressure. Beta-blockers also offer relief for glaucoma, overactive thyroid, and anxiety. There are many different brands of beta-blocker."

"text": "\"Beta blockers Beta blockers, also called beta-adrenergic blocking agents, treat a variety of conditions, such as high blood pressure and migraines. Find out more about this class of medication. By Mayo Clinic Staff Beta blockers, also known as beta-adrenergic blocking agents, are medications that reduce your blood pressure. Beta blockers work by blocking the effects of the hormone epinephrine, also known as adrenaline. When you take beta blockers, your heart beats more slowly and with less force, thereby reducing blood pressure. Beta blockers also help blood vessels open up to improve blood flow. Examples of beta blockers Some beta blockers mainly affect your heart, while others affect both your heart and your blood vessels. Which one is best for you depends on your health and the condition being treated. Examples of oral beta blockers include: Acebutolol (Sectral)Atenolol (Tenormin)Bisoprolol (Zebeta)Metoprolol (Lopressor, Toprol-XL)Nadolol (Corgard)Nebivolol (Bystolic)Propranolol (Inderal LA, Inno Pran XL)Uses for beta blockers Doctors prescribe beta blockers to prevent, treat or improve symptoms in a variety of conditions, such as: High blood pressure Irregular heart rhythm (arrhythmia)Heart failure Chest pain (angina)Heart attacks Migraine Certain types of tremors Beta blockers aren't usually prescribed for blood pressure until other medications, such as diuretics, haven't worked effectively. Your doctor may prescribe beta blockers as one of several medications to lower your blood pressure, including angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, diuretics or calcium channel blockers."

"text": "\"Drugs & Diseases > Cardiology Long QT Syndrome Treatment & Management Updated: Nov 30, 2017Author: Ali A Sovari, MD, FACP, FACC; Chief Editor: Mikhael F El-Chami, MD more... Print Approach Considerations All patients with long QT syndrome (LQTS) should avoid drugs that prolong the QT interval or that reduce their serum potassium or magnesium levels. In a study of 133,359 electrocardiograms from 40,037 patients, the use of a single QT-prolonging agent increased the corrected QT (QTc) interval by 11.08 ms; when two such drugs were used, there was another 3.04 ms increase in the QTc interval relative to when a single drug was used. [ 4]Potassium and magnesium deficiency should be corrected. Although psychoactive medications are known to have effects on the cardiovascular system, such as QT prolongation, sometimes their use may be necessary to treat psychiatric conditions. [ 24] To minimize the cardiovascular effects of these drugs, clinicians should carefully select appropriate patient-related drugs, closely monitor drug-specific cardiac adverse effect risks, and follow up assiduously. This process will help with early detection of adverse reactions and dose adjustments. Initiate therapy with low doses and then carefully titrate and adjust the dosing and/or drug regimen based on the patient's clinical responses. [ 24]There may be an LQTS genotype-specific effect of antidepressants on the risk of arrhythmic events. In a study that evaluated the LQTS genotype-specific risk of recurrent cardiac arrhythmic events (CAEs) associated with these agents, investigators noted an increased risk of CAEs associated with antidepressant drug therapy in patients with LQT1, particularly individuals receiving selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors or antidepressants with a known risk of torsade de pointes, [ 25] but there was no such associated risk in those with LQT2. Furthermore, antidepressants considered as having a \"\"conditional risk of torsade de pointes\"\" were not linked to a risk of recurrent CAEs in any patients from the LQT1 and LQT2 groups."

Angiotensin II is a very potent chemical formed in the blood by ACE from, angiotensin I. When formed, angiotensin II causes the muscles surrounding blood vessels to contract, thus narrowing the vessels and increasing blood pressure. ACE inhibitors are medications that inhibit the activity of ACE which decreases the production of angiotensin II. As a result, these medications cause the blood vessels to enlarge or dilate, and this reduces blood pressure. This lower blood pressure makes it easier for the heart to pump blood and can improve the function of a failing heart. In addition, the progression of kidney disease due to high blood pressure or diabetes is slowed."

Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video. Download Interview Transcript Visit the Mercola Video Library Story at-a-glance European doctors may have caused as many as 800,000 deaths in five years by following a guideline to use beta-blockers in non-cardiac surgery patients—a guideline based largely on discredited science The discredited researcher, who was fired for scientific misconduct in 2011, was also the chairman of the committee that drafted the European treatment guideline Recent research found that simply eating an apple a day might help prevent cardiovascular-related deaths in those over 50 to a similar degree as using a daily statin Even if a drug or treatment is \"\"backed by science,\"\" this in no way guarantees it is safe or effective. Likewise, if an alternative treatment has not been published in a medical journal, it does not mean it is unsafe or ineffective By Dr. Mercola Most people assume that scientific integrity is somehow assured; that there are safeguards along the way, preventing fraudulent research from harming patients. Unfortunately, scientific misconduct has become a very serious and widespread problem that threatens the entire paradigm of science-based medicine—unless changes are made. Again and again, papers assessing the prevalence of scientific fraud and/or the impact this is having shows that the situation is dire and getting worse. In short, we have lost scientific integrity, and without it, \"\"science-based medicine\"\" is just a term without substance. Conflict of interest is another pervasive problem within the research field, and the featured article highlights a case that contains both. Beta-blockers are drugs commonly used in the treatment of high blood pressure and congestive heart failure. They work primarily by blocking the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and epinephrine (adrenaline) from binding to beta receptors, thereby dilating blood vessels, which reduces your heart rate and blood pressure."

"text": "\"Epinephrine receptors Common Questions and Answers about Epinephrine receptorsepipen The current hypothesis about the effectiveness of SSRIs is that depression involves decreased Serotonin and Nor- epinephrine levels in the synaptic spaces. SSRIs block the re-uptake of Serotonin molecules and make up for the reduced quantity. If you have gradually weaned off Paroxetine with adequate symptom control, the Serotonin levels should be back to normal, as per the hypothesis. There is enough evidence to conclude that SSRIs lead to complete symptom resolution. Read More Hi, welcome to the forum, Epipen delivers a measured dose of epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) using autoinjector technology, most frequently for the treatment of acute allergic reactions to avoid or treat the onset of anaphylactic shock. In certain cases it can be used to stop local bleeding. Epinephrine is known to act on the uterus through beta 2 receptors and can cause relaxation of the uterus. At term, it can prevent the contraction and delay the labor. Read More Amlodipine, on the other hand, is a calcium channel blocker (clonidine is an alpha-2 agonist-- affecting receptors for epinephrine) and the two meds have completely different actions.

"text": "What is Beta-blockers Poisoning? Beta-blockers are used for heart disease in the regulation of blood pressure in humans. They are also prescribed to dogs to regulate the heartbeat; however, it is prescribed carefully by veterinarians. When an overdose occurs by a dog, heart failure and kidney failure can ensue. Beta-blockers decrease the workload of the heart by altering the response to nerve impulses, and an overdose can very quickly lead to adverse effects. Propranolol is a common beta-blocker that is successful in blocking the beta-1 and beta-2 receptors, known as norepinephrine and epinephrine. These receptors are responsible for the elevation of the heart rate during stressful situations. Beta-blockers decrease the heart rate, thus the amount of oxygen required for the cardiovascular system to work properly. Propranolol can negatively interfere with other medications. It is important to only have this beta-blocker prescribed under a veterinarian’s care, as the veterinarian is aware of the other medications the dog is taking."

Popular remedies for getting rid of hemorrhoids include apple cider vinegar, rutin, coconut oil, castor oil, witch hazel, and aloe vera. Hemorrhoids are swollen or inflamed veins in the anus and lower rectum that can be itchy, painful, and potentially cause bleeding during bowel movements. There are two types of hemorrhoids, internal and external. External hemorrhoids are located under the skin around the anus, and the delicate skin there can be easily irritated and bleed during a bowel movement. Blood clots can form in external hemorrhoids and cause a great deal of pain and inflammation. On the other hand, internal hemorrhoids are less noticeable, but straining during a bowel movement can irritate the delicate surface of the hemorrhoid and cause bleeding or pass the hemorrhoid outside the anus; this is called a protruding or prolapsed hemorrhoid and can be very painful. Hemorrhoid symptoms include painless bleeding during bowel movements that results in bright red blood, itching, irritation, or swelling in the anus, the formation of a sensitive or painful lump near the anus, and sometimes anal leakage.

Turns out, there is much to be learned from this mountain of poop. The shape, size, color, and other fecal features can tell you a great deal about your overall health, how your gastrointestinal tract is functioning, and even give you clues about serious disease processes that could be occurring, like infections, digestive problems, and even cancer. Poop comes in just about all the colors of the rainbow... and please forgive me for using the words poop and rainbow in the same sentence. Although there is a certainly a wide variety of stool colors, textures and forms that are considered \"\"normal,\"\" there are definitely things that, if seen or experienced, warrant immediate medical attention.

You can see the recessed edges as you look around the corners of the lid. Towards the rear of the unit, there's a silver \"\"TOTO Washlet\"\" insignia centered in the middle. There's also a body sensor which detects when you're approaching the seat, which is the light grey rectangle in the upper-right part of your picture. - Scene 3 - To the left of the TOTO insignia, you'll find the main display which has four LED lights. There's a power light, a light for the occupied seat sensor, and another light for the energy saving mode. The last light is the \"\"Clean\"\" indicator which shows when the washlet is using e Water, or electrolyzed water, to mist your toilet bowl. This helps minimize the need for chemical cleaners and keeps your toilet noticeably whiter and cleaner. -"

In this video, we’ll be walking through the basic steps of how to install an electronic bidet toilet seat. First, we’ll want to turn off the water supply by closing the shut-off valve located next to your toilet. Once the water’s off, you can drain the toilet tank completely by giving it a long flush. The supply hose can then be disconnected from the toilet tank. It’s a good idea to put a towel on the floor as there may be some residual water in the line. Remove your existing toilet seat by loosening the two bolts behind the seat. The bolts are usually held in place underneath the toilet bowl with two plastic nuts. Once the nuts are removed, you can lift the seat from the bowl."

"text": "\"Home Buying Guides Home Improvement Plumbing & Fixtures Toilet Seats Toilet Seats: Choosing the Correct Sizegltoiletseats 42 Likes Like August 14, 2007In the plumbing world, most toilets are one of two sizes: \"\"standard\"\" and \"\"elongated\"\". A standard size toilet, also referred to as \"\"round\"\", has historically been the most common in American homes. However, the elongated size toilet, sometimes called \"\"oblong\"\", is often installed in homes being built today thanks to its more luxurious larger size. To determine which size toilet you have, and thus which size toilet seat will fit your toilet, grab a measuring tape. Measure the length of the toilet bowl from the hinge post holes to the front rim. If the length is about 16-17 inches, a standard round toilet seat will fit your toilet. If the length is 18-19 inches, an elongated/oblong toilet seat will fit. Both toilet seat sizes have a width of about 14.5 inches, and in the United States, the distance between the hinge post holes is about 5.5 inches.

Recently, I broke down and went to the hospital to get antibiotics. They didn't work, it was alarming truly, this is modern medicine.

"text": "\"Honeywagon (vehicle)From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search A honey wagon (vacuum truck) in Cambridge Bay A honeywagon is the slang term for a \"\" vacuum truck \"\" for collecting and carrying human excreta. [ 1] These vehicles may be used to empty the sewage tanks of buildings, aircraft lavatories and at campgrounds and marinas as well as portable toilets. The folk etymology behind the name 'honeywagon' is thought to relate to the honey-colored liquid that comes out of it when emptying the holding tanks. [ citation needed]Contents [ hide ]1 History2 Use in film and television industry3 Operation4 See also5 References History [ edit]The honey wagon was originally a horse-drawn vehicle that went through back alleys to collect human excreta. Houses at that time did not have flush toilets or indeed any form of indoor sanitation beyond the chamberpot. In rural areas the outhouse (privy) is associated with a pit latrine of various sorts, but many towns and cities depended on some variant of the pail closet, which needed frequent emptying. At each outdoor toilet, the driver would stop the wagon, flip up the back hatch door (trap-door) of the outhouse, slide out the pail (bucket), pick it up, and dump the contents into one of eight oak half-barrels in the wagon box. The half-barrels had no lids. [ citation needed] These toilets were known as dunnies in Australia, hence the \"\"dunnywagon\"\" driven by \"\"dunnymen\"\". Use in film and television industry [ edit]A honeywagon is a portable toilet unit used in the film and television industry."

"text": "Mobile Facebook Messenger adds in-app video recording, bigger thumbs By Malarie Gokey — Posted on June 13, 2014 - 8:25AMKārlis Dambrāns/Flickr Facebook Messenger may be playing catch-up in the great messaging app race, but the near-constant flow of enhancements should ensure that more people get roped into using the service. In a new update, Facebook added the ability to send video messages to friends and a bigger thumbs-up symbol, for when you really, really like something your friend said. We tried it, and it works. Now, you can either “Like” something or you can “Big Like” something. To get the giant blue thumb, all you have to do is press down on the like button a little longer than usual. Then, the biggest blue thumbs-up you’ve probably ever seen will pop up on the screen for you and your friend to see. A similar action is required to send a short, 15-second video message. When you hold down the picture button, the app automatically knows that you want to send your friend a short video and opens up the camera app to let you begin filming. Previously, Facebook only let you send pre-recorded videos, but with this update, you can now shoot and send impromptu videos from inside the app. Of course, sharing and shooting videos within the messaging app itself is very common."

"text": "Here is a detail from the Wall Street Journal’s article today about how Morgan Stanley tech banker Michael Grimes excluded the other underwriters from having much of an active role in managing and pricing the Facebook IPO and I cannot stand how good it is: A page of his pitch book to other companies,* which he calls the “Driver/Navigator Model,” shows a black sports car. A company about to go public, the pitch reads, must choose between a “single driver [who] operates the steering wheel, gas, brake and clutch,” or the “two driver model, where the car literally has an extra steering wheel, gas, brake pedals and clutch for a second driver.” Morgan Stanley, the pitch says, “favors the sole bookrunner approach. ”Imagine being persuaded by that! You could construct a hierarchy of pitchbook pages based on how persuasive they’d be to a rational person; I’m the sort of person who tends to find tables of numbers most compelling, followed by charts (I know, I know), followed by functional diagrams of functional things (“we put the mortgages in this green box, and then sell them to this red box”), followed I guess by pages of texty bullet points, followed last of all by METAPHORICAL CLIP ART. ** Not, really, to single out Morgan Stanley here. The metaphor is stupid, and not rendered less stupid by the inclusion of “literally” (putting two literal steering wheels on one metaphorical car must make navigation especially difficult), but the thought is a commonplace among investment bankers – and hotly contested, as you can tell by the griping from competitors that must have led to this article. On the one hand, having a single bank coordinating the sale process and talking to investors does help an issuer stay on message. Particularly where, as in Facebook, the company made several aggressive moves in upsizing and repricing the deal, any dissent from the co-bookrunners suggesting that the book was not as strong as Morgan Stanley was implying could have led to pushback from investors. The clarity of message that comes from one underwriter controlling communication probably did help the deal get done aggressively."

"text": "If you're ready to upgrade to a new computer or if you're trying to share files between your computers and your mobile devices, you can save a lot of time if you follow the tips below. E-mail Files! Easy-Peasy You will really only want to pursue this option if you are trying to share a few smaller files, like pictures or MP3 files. Usually, there are file size threshold limits on most e-mail servers, and trying to e-mail someone an entire movie or a folder of every single picture you took on your Caribbean cruise will more than likely bounce back undeliverable. It can also be incredibly time consuming to e-mail big files back and forth, so keep that in mind. You can use e-mail to share files, but it only works best for the smaller ones. Under Your Thumb (Drive)Thumb drives (which also go by other commonly used names like flash drives, USB drives, or ZIP drives) are a quick and easy way to share files between computers. The technology is also incredibly easy to use and lets you transfer files to just about anywhere. The only drawback is that it can’t be done remotely—you still have to physically carry the thumb drive from one location to another in order to do the transfer. But that should be no big deal."

So let’s start with the basics, and work our way up. We’ll cover the definitions of the two, and do a comparison using the Big Agnes Seedhouse and Battle Mountain tents.

"text": "Finger gout. Your fingers are among the worst places toget gout attacks This page about finger gout was last reviewed, or updated, on 30 January 2018. A significant feature about gout in the finger is that the fingers are not usually the first attack location. Gout will probably have attacked other body joints before it turns its attention to the fingers. This means that when gout attacks the fingers, it will have been bodily present for some time. Therefore uric acid levels will probably be high, perhaps 9.0 mg/d L and above, if treatment for gout hasn't lowered it. The doctor in the video belo w, squeezing (aspiration) tophi out of a gouty finger, correctly says the patient has severe gout. If this is so, and it is likely, finger gout could take much longer to control. How long does gout last in the fingers? A second and unfortunate feature, is that some experienced gout sufferers report that finger gout attacks last longer than, for example, gout flares in the big toes or other parts of the feet and ankles."

The coat of arms features a palm tree, topped with the Phyrgian cap, a symbol of liberty, and surrounded by six Haitian flags. The tree is flanked by cannons, and between them are several objects, including a drum and bugles, and a broken chain. Across the bottom of the coat of arms is a banner that reads “L’Union Fait La Force,” which means “Unity is Strength. ”The colors of the Haitian flag reflect Haiti’s status as a former French colony, using the red and blue from the French flag. The story behind this resemblance is that the revolutionary Jean-Jacques Dessalines created the flag from the French flag, removing the white center and rotating the stripes, the blue and red left to represent Haitians, symbolically removing any remnants of white influence. The blue represented the former slaves and the red represented the mulatto population, who are people of mixed black and white ancestry. The flag first came into use in 1806, and was made official by the national constitution on February 25, 2012. Haiti National Anthem: La Dessalinienne is the national anthem of Haiti, honoring Jean-Jacques Dessalines."

"text": "Calculating investment returns: Actuarially speaking, 6% is a good rule of thumb Beating a 6% return on your investments is going to be very difficult in the coming years, says actuary Fred Vettese. But this isn't as bad as it sounds Fred Vettese September 21, 2013 8:00 AM EDTFiled under Personal Finance Retirement Comment Facebook Twitter Reddit Email More If you are trying to predict your cash flow in retirement, it’s useful to know what investment returns you can expect. From an actuary’s perspective, this involves less guesswork than you might imagine. Just like it’s easier to forecast the average climate over the next 25 years than the weather next week, you can make a reasonably good estimate of long-term returns. Actuaries face this problem all the time since future investment returns are key to estimating the liabilities in defined benefit pension plans. And the magic number we come up with — 6%. The 6% estimate may seem unrealistically low. After all, the typical pension fund manager achieved an 8.5% return over the past 50 years, so why should returns be so much lower in the future? For the individual investor, returns can be lower than 6% depending on investment fees. If you go with mutual funds, expect to pay 2% to 3% in annual fees which would reduce the 6% return down to 4% or so."

So what does it mean to “render” a web page? To understand this concept, you must first understand how a web browser works. How Web Browsers Work The primary function of a web browser is to request resources from the web and display them inside of a browser window. Typically a browser will request HTML, CSS, Java Script and image content from a server and interpret them based on web standards and specifications. They follow standards because it allows websites to behave the same way across all browsers, and creates less work and fewer headaches for web developers. There Are 7 Key Components of Any Web Browser1. Layout Engine – this takes input from the browser (URL bar, search box, mouse clicks and key presses) and passes them to the rendering engine2.

The truth is that guys have just as much to say about vaginas as we have to say about their penises. No need to fret. After speaking with an array of guys and consulting with blogs of the male perspective, we've been able to derive the top vagina types seen and discussed among men.

"title": "http://www.investopedia.com/terms/t/title-binder.asp\nTitle Binder",
"text": "Title Binder By Investopedia Staff What is 'Title Binder'A title binder is a temporary form of real estate insurance coverage related to the transfer of ownership. A title binder is typically used to protect both the seller and buyer of a real estate property during the transitional phase of a sale when the seller's and buyer's home insurance policies do not necessarily overlap over the same time frame. Although they are not legally required in all cases, title binders are a common protective insurance in real estate transactions. BREAKING DOWN 'Title Binder'Title binders may be considered vital in some jurisdictions prior to real estate agencies agreeing to list a property or close a sale. Typical title binders will provide the buyer and seller protection from theft, acts of god and other sorts of physical damage during the closing of a property transaction. A title binder, or interim binder, is not a title insurance policy. However, it does represent an insurance company's commitment to issue a title policy. The key to the question of buying or not buying a title binder is the amount of time a person intends to own a property. It actually functions as a cost saving tool for people (i.e. investors) who intend to “flip” a home or for those who are subject to frequent relocation or who just find themselves not wishing to remain in a specific home for more than two years. Title insurance protects a property buyer and lender against unknown defects in the title."

"text": "What is a Title Binder? If You Plan On Owning A Home A Short Time, It’s For YOU!Posted by on October 15th, 2009What is a title binder? No, it’s not the binder you take to keep your notes in concerning your title and escrow proceedings. It IS something that you should know about to save money if plan on selling your home within 2 years after its purchase. A title binder, also known as an interim binder, is not a title insurance policy, but is, instead, a commitment to issue a title policy. The key to the title binder is asking yourself, “How long do I plan to keep this property?” The title binder is a cost saving tool for people (i.e. investors) who intend to “flip” a home or for those who are subject to frequent relocation or who just find themselves not wishing to remain in a specific home for more than two years. Every time you sell and buy a home, you incur costs to have the title searched. Title insurance protects the buyer of a property or the lender for the property against unknown defects in the title. For a one-time premium, the title insurance company, which is in the business of examining public records, preparing title abstracts, and selling title insurance, issues the insurance after doing a title search on the property."

ALGINATE5.1 Alginate production methods5.1.1 Sodium alginate\"\"Alginate\"\" is the term usually used for the salts of alginic acid, but it can also refer to all the derivatives of alginic acid and alginic acid itself; in some publications the term \"\"algin\"\" is used instead of alginate. Alginate is present in the cell walls of brown algae as the calcium, magnesium and sodium salts of alginic acid. The goal of the extraction process is to obtain dry, powdered, sodium alginate. The calcium and magnesium salts do not dissolve in water; the sodium salt does. The rationale behind the extraction of alginate from the seaweed is to convert all the alginate salts to the sodium salt, dissolve this in water, and remove the seaweed residue by filtration. The alginate must then be recovered from the aqueous solution. The solution is very dilute and evaporation of the water is not economic. There are two different ways of recovering the alginate. The first is to add acid, which causes alginic acid to form; this does not dissolve in water and the solid alginic acid is separated from the water."

Loan Origination Fee: This fee covers the lender's administrative costs in processing the loan. It is a one-time fee, often expressed as a percentage of the loan. The origination fee is typically 1% of the loan, but remember, you can obtain a loan with no origination fee and a slightly higher interest rate. Loan Discount: Often called \"\"points\"\", a loan discount is a one-time charge used to adjust the yield on the loan to what market conditions demand. One point is equal to 1% of the loan amount. This fee is rare when interest rates are low. Appraisal Fee: This is a one-time fee that pays for an appraisal, which is a statement of property value viewed by the lender."

This is probably the most frequent question that I receive and the very essence of what attorneys do. Actually, the question is better phrased as “What will it mean to me if I sign this document?”. Indeed, an attorney's job is to explain to a client what the consequences are of signing a particular document rather than to advise a client if they should sign such document. That is a business decision of the client. So, what does it mean if you sign a binder? Actually, not much at all. The following is a typical binder that you may be asked to sign. The word “binder” is really a misnomer as a binder does not serve to bind either the seller or the purchaser."

"text": "June 2007 Issue Co-brokerage and commissions in conflict By Lauren Elkies | October 25, 2007 11:05AMNobody ever claimed New York real estate was an easy game, but only the most unscrupulous agents find ways to increase their bottom line by evading co-broking. Cutting a co-broker out of a deal can mean a difference of thousands of dollars to the broker who grabs the sale, but can give the buyer and seller the short end of the stick. The practice is a breach of an agent’s fiduciary responsibility to his client and is most prevalent when the market is tight. Though the market is strong today, there is more co-broking than five or 10 years ago, said Neil Binder, principal and co-founder of Bellmarc Realty. Still, some agents find ways around co-broking. The acquisition of an exclusive listing requires brokers to disseminate listings to other firms within 72 hours of getting a contract for an exclusive, under the Real Estate Board of New York rules, and to present all offers to the seller. Market observers say there are plenty of less-than-ethical ways to step outside the boundaries of those arrangements. “There are ways to tweak it,” said Kathy Braddock, co-founder of real estate consulting firm Braddock + Purcell and the New York City real estate company Charles Rutenberg Realty. Agents can steer the seller to a direct buyer offering less money than a buyer with an agent and say the former is more qualified than the latter. Agents can encourage a client to buy an apartment in a more expensive building and area of the city in order to sweeten the agents’ portion of the commission."

"text": "Archives | 1981THE 'BINDER' SOMETIMES BOOMERANGSBy DIANA SHAMANView page in Times Machine, Page 008001 The New York Times Archives Lawyers routinely advise their clients not to sign anything when buying or selling property without consulting them first, but they say such advice is frequently and foolishly ignored. When a broker finds a buyer for a house, at a price agreeable to the owner, he usually promptly draws up a binder, or purchase offer as it is sometimes called, that he asks both parties to sign. They usually sign without consulting their lawyer. A binder is supposed to be no more than a written memorandum of the agreement that a seller and a buyer have reached, and is meant to take the property off the market until a formal contract of sale can be drawn. The essential elements of a contract of sale include an agreement to sell and buy, and an adequate description of the property, the price and payment terms, and the signatures of both parties. The same elements are found in most binders, so binders, particularly the more extensive ones, often become contracts that can be enforced by a court of law when one of the parties tries to withdraw from the deal. Usually, such litigation is avoided. But not always. For Sale For Rent See Available Homes LIST YOUR HOMEFor example, Andrew and Lillian Brandwein who lived in Kew Gardens, Queens, said they signed what they thought was a binder subject to a formal contract that their lawyer would draw up. This led to an eight-month ordeal that resulted in the forced sale of their home."

"text": "A closing, or settlement, is the meeting during which ownership of the property is officially transferred from the seller to the buyer. The buyer and the seller, their attorneys, both real estate sales professionals, a representative of the lender, and the closing agent typically attend the closing. The closing involves settling any open issues, balancing and verifying an often-complex closing statement, and signing all documents necessary to complete the transaction. An attorney with experience in closing real estate transactions will advise you at closing to ensure that your rights are protected. Closing Costs Closing costs are one of the least-understood aspects of the home purchase procedure. Although a good closer will take time to walk a buyer through the numbers, an experienced attorney will provide additional insight and verify that the costs are being appropriately allocated between the buyer and the seller. Closing costs vary somewhat by community, but they generally are between two and five percent of the home’s purchase price and include: Attorney fees,Escrow fees,Property taxes to cover the period to the closing date,Interest from the closing date to one month before the first monthly payment,Loan origination fees,Recording fees,Survey fees,Mortgage insurance, if applicable,Title insurance, both for the buyer and the lender,Loan discount points,The first escrow payment for future real estate taxes and insurance,Homeowners’ insurance policy payment or receipt,Appraisal fees,Pest or other specific inspection fees, and Document preparation fees. What Happens at Closing? At closing, the buyer typically presents his or her paid homeowner’s insurance policy or a binder and receipt showing a paid premium. The closing agent will then list the amounts the buyer owes the seller and the amounts the seller owes the buyer."

"text": "September 1, 2013 Self Improvement How to Make and Use a Tickler File System For those who don’t know what a tickler file is—a conventional tickler file consists of 43 folders: 12 folders for each of the months of the year and 31 folders for each of the days of the month. It works just like your paper day planner that you might have, only the advantages of a tickler file is that it’s uniquely designed to organize and keep pieces of paper that otherwise can’t go into your day planner. Your tickler file, when used correctly, is the ultimate reminder system for time-sensitive documents that don’t have a place anywhere else except in the growing piles on your desk, commonly referred to as the “black hole. ” The Benefits of Using a Tickler File Pay Bills on Time: Never pay late fees by processing your incoming bills and placing them in your tickler file on a “pay by” date, allowing sufficient lead time for cash flow and mailing/processing. Track Time-Sensitive Documents: Reports, forms and other time-sensitive documents can be easily managed by placing them in the folder when you want to take action on those documents. Fail-Proof Reminders: Defer hard-copy documents to a later date by “mailing” them to your future self. Additionally, tickler file users and followers of the Getting Things Done™ (GTD) method, utilize standard 3×5 index cards as reminders and file them in the appropriate date folder in their tickler file when they want to be reminded of such an item. Never Forget Travel Documents: Any business person who travels a lot and even the occasional traveler will love the fact that their tickler file can hold, not only their travel tickets, but also supporting documents such as hotel information, maps and directions, and your passport. Don’t suffer from the “last minute rush” syndrome where you’re trying to scramble to find your passport with 15 minutes to get to the airport. Prepare everything in advance and put it in your tickler file and you won’t have to worry about it."

"text": "Essentials: Be Careful What You Say When Issuing a Binder By Steven Plitt | September 5, 2011Email This Subscribe to Newsletter Email to a friend Facebook Tweet Linked In Print Article Article 1 Comments Insurance binders are contracts of temporary insurance pending the issuance of a formal policy or proper rejection of the application by the insurer. The binder serves only as a temporary or interim policy until a formal policy is issued. Once the formal policy is issued, the binder merges into the policy and is extinguished. The binder constitutes evidence that insurance coverage has attached at a specific time and continues in effect until either the policy is issued or the risk is declined. Not all of the terms of the insurance contract are set forth in the binder. This is especially true in situations where oral binders are issued. Nevertheless, a binder is a fully enforceable contract of insurance. Once the binder is in effect, it is deemed to include all of the terms of the policy to which the binder was given, and has the same effect as the policy. Typically, the customer and the insurance agent do not specifically agree upon all of the essential terms when the binder is issued. However, they are presumed to have contemplated the terms, conditions, and limitations in the the policy issued by the insurance company at that time, at least for other similar risks or standard policies."

"text": "\"Home Buying What Is a Salvage-Title Vehicle?by Ronald Montoya November 13th, 2013 buying Share: You're browsing the used car ads when a vehicle grabs your attention. The car you are interested in has a price that seems too good to be true. You keep scanning the page until you see two words in small print: \"\"salvage title. \"\" A salvage title is potentially a red flag, but the cars that carry them can be inexpensive options for car shoppers on a budget — provided you know what you are buying. When a vehicle has been in an accident and the total damage exceeds a certain percentage of the value of the car (ranging from 75-90 percent), the insurance company will decide that it is not economically feasible to repair it and declares it a \"\"total loss.\"\" What happens next varies by state, but in general, the motor vehicle agency will then issue a \"\"salvage certificate\"\" to the car. This means that the car cannot be driven, sold or registered in its current condition. Usually, the insurance company sells the car to either a repair facility or parts dismantler. If the car is repaired, most states require that it pass a basic safety inspection before the motor vehicle agency will issue a new title. When the state does issue the title, it's \"\"branded,\"\" and notes that the car has been salvaged or rebuilt so future owners are aware of its past."

"text": "\"The Difference between Insurance Brokers and Agents What Insurance Professionals Do and Why That Matters to You Insurance Insurance Brokers February 27, 2016The terms \"\"insurance agents\"\" and \"\"insurance brokers\"\" are often used interchangeably and they may be thought of as the same job, but there are differences. The main difference is in the perspective of each insurance professional. Is an agent or a broker best for you or your business? To make that decision, you first have to understand the differences between them. Insurance Agents Insurance agents generally represent insurance sellers and act as a conduit to present information to insurance buyers. Buyers choose from available policies and contract with the insurer through the agent. Insurance agents have contractual agreements — known as appointments — with insurers that set up the guidelines for the policies that they can offer and the agent’s compensation. An agent dedicated to one insurance company’s products is known as a \"\"captive agent,\"\" while \"\"independent agents\"\" can align themselves with multiple insurers. Independent insurance agents are able to compare policies from multiple vendors, but that does not mean they have access to all policies from all vendors. A captive agent may have exclusive access to a policy that is best for your particular situation."

The functions performed by insurance agents are similar, but not identical, to those performed by brokers. This article will explain how they differ. It will also explain how agents and brokers make money from the premiums you pay your insurers. Except where noted, the following discussion applies to agents and brokers selling property/casualty insurance. Agent Versus Broker Agents and brokers act as intermediaries between you (the insurance buyer) and your insurers. Each has a legal duty to help you obtain appropriate coverage at a reasonable price. Each must have a license to distribute the type of insurance he or she is selling. An agent or broker must also adhere to the regulations enforced by your state insurance department. The main difference between a broker and an agent has to do with whom they represent."

"text": "Ignatius Aditya Hendrayana, Bio/Biomedical Engineering Student at Nanyang Technological University Answered May 26, 2016Before I go to the answer, I would like to share with you that Bioengineering (Biological Engineering?) and Biomedical Engineering are interchangeable to some extent, so what I’m going to say will probably be applicable to Biomedical engineering, but not Biological Science. As previously mentioned, Bioengineering is a very diverse field combining so-called “biology” and “engineering”. However, people tend to believe that Bioengineering is equal to, or rather similar to Biological Science. For me myself as a student from Nanyang Technological University Singapore, Bioengineering never as simple as studying how biological systems work, but not too practically daunting as Mechanical Engineering or Electrical Engineering. To give you an example, take a look at the NTU Bioengineering Curriculum below: At the first year, you will learn all the fundamentals of Bioengineering: Molecular Biology, Anatomy and Physiology, Physics and Materials Science, as well as Basic Engineering Mathematics. It is indeed a neat balance between life sciences and quantitative sciences such as Physics and Math. During your sophomore and penultimate years, your basic biological knowledge will be stretched to its true potential in engineering. You will learn how your basic knowledge will be applied with advanced engineering methods such as Fluid Mechanics, Biocomputing, Bioelectronics and Biomechanics. From there, you will be attached to some real-life industry work in biotech, medical devices, or pharmaceutical companies through an internship/industrial attachment."

"text": "Human Enhancement First published Tue Apr 7, 2015At first glance there does not seem to be anything philosophically problematic about human enhancement. Activities such as physical fitness routines, wearing eyeglasses, taking music lessons and prayer are routinely utilized for the goal of enhancing human capacities. This entry is not concerned with every activity and intervention that might improve people’s embodied lives. The focus of this entry is a cluster of debates in practical ethics that is conventionally labeled as “the ethics of human enhancement”. These debates include clinicians’ concerns about the limits of legitimate health care, parents’ worries about their reproductive and rearing obligations, and the efforts of competitive institutions like sports to combat cheating, as well as more general questions about distributive justice, science policy, and the public regulation of medical technologies. As usual in practical ethics, an adequate discussion of any specific debate under this heading quickly requires orientation to the science underlying particular enhancement interventions and an appreciation of the social and political contexts in which it unfolds. At each turn in these discussions, wide vistas of background philosophical topics also appear for exploration. Rather than providing a detailed account of this whole landscape, this entry hikes a narrow ridge between the different dimensions of the topic, pointing out the side trails but not following them into their respective thickets. Instead, it traces a path of core concerns that winds through all the current debates on the ethics of human enhancement, as guide for those interested in exploring further. To look ahead, our claim is that three sets of philosophical considerations are key to navigating this literature: first, conceptual concerns about the limits of legitimate health care, then moral worries about fairness, authenticity and human nature, and finally political questions about governance and policy.1."

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Jobs & Education Education College Degrees Associates Degrees How long does it take to get a biomedical science degree? Flag How long does it take to get a biomedical science degree? Answer by Joe Ragusa Confidence votes 98.7KA bachelor's degree in most areas can require between 124 to 128 college credits particular to a specific program of study. This would be based on a college or university that operates on a regular two semester academic year which is the most common. For institutions that operate on a tri-semester or quarter-semester it would be quite different. That being said, the Bachelor's degree - in most cases - is designed as a four year program of study, provided the student is full-time and follows their chosen program of study as prescribed by the college or university, and also provided the individual does not require prerequisite or developmental coursework as a result of basic skills testing. The minimum credit load for a full-time student is no less than 12 credits per semester. However, to complete the degree within the four years, a credit load of approximately 15 to 18 credits is recommended. For individuals who work or who have other responsibilities that would prohibit them from attending full-time, completion of the degree may take twice as long. Still, some of this time can be cut down by attending summer sessions and/or interim sessions."

Steve Campbell is AAMI's vice president of marketing and communications Salaries for biomedical equipment technicians, clinical engineers, and other medical technology professionals increased by 3.2% over the last year, according to the results of a new survey commissioned by AAMI. For the nine specific job title categories surveyed, the median base salary increased from $60,000 in 2004 to $62,000 in 2005, with salaries ranging from $29,700 for BMET I to $78,000 for a department director or manager. The survey—which was conducted by a Maryland-based research firm, Westat—was designed to provide up-to-date salary information to help benchmark career information. The survey provides insights on issues ranging from income by education level, job title, employer, and specialty; to trends in fringe benefits, certification, and retention. While the survey was not designed to establish or recommend salary levels or job responsibilities, it can help employers and employees gauge how their salaries measure against others in the field. Among the findings: Fewer employers pay the full cost of their employees’ health insurance. Only 11% of those surveyed said their employers pay 100% of their health insurance, compared to 23% who received full healthcare insurance in AAMI’s 2003 Employment Survey. Manufacturers generally pay significantly more than hospitals or independent service organizations (ISOs), although hospitals are more apt to offer employees overtime, call-back pay, life insurance, and employer-provided pensions."

In short, biomechanical engineering is the combined use of mechanical engineering principals and biological knowledge to better understand how these areas intersect and how they can be used together to potentially improve peoples’ quality of life. How is biomechanical engineering different than biomedical engineering and is Stanford a good place to study BME? At other colleges, biomechanical engineering is sometimes considered a subset of biomedical engineering. Stanford does not have a biomedical engineering major for undergraduates. Rather, each subset of biomedical engineering is considered its own major. The biomechanical engineering major combines mechanical engineering and biology while the biomedical computation major combines computer science and biology. Alternatively, Stanford offers individually designed majors (IDMs) where you can determine your own engineering curriculum in a way that will allow you to study your specific interests. All in all, Stanford is a great place to study biomechanical engineering. Stanford has earned its great reputation as an engineering school."

These include transferring a specific gene from one species to another to create a transgenic organism; the production of genetically uniform plants and animals (clones); and the fusing of different types of cells to produce beneficial medical products such as monoclonal antibodies. Today, biotechnology has a number of applications in livestock production. It is being used to hasten animal growth, enhance reproductive capacity, improve animal health and develop new animal products. In 1999, FFTC carried out a regional survey to draw up an inventory of technologies and products which have been developed using biotechnology for livestock production. Some of these are now being applied on farms, others are still being developed in research stations. The survey covered five countries: Japan, Korea, Philippines, Taiwan ROC and Thailand. The results of the survey will be published by FFTC in the year 2000. A summary of the findings is given below.

Spider-less silk is also one of the nature’s most sought-after materials. And, now researchers from Nexia Biotechnologies in Montreal seem to be on the verge of manufacturing it in large quantities, and by a most surprising method – in the milk of transgenic goats. Transgenic animals are the results of special biological engineering processes in the course of which extra genes from other animals – often entirely different species – are inserted into their genome. Researchers have been fiddling about with the DNA of different creatures for years. Scientist have inserted into rhesus monkeys and rabbits the gene that makes jellyfish glow in the dark, they've produced chickens that never grow feathers, they’ve made salmon grow up to six times larger than normal, they’ve altered cow and goat milk many times in order to obtain the desired composition, and have accomplished many other similar far-fetched feats. But only recently have they begun to develop large-scale industrial plans for these creatures. And the production of spider silk from goat milk is the best example of a certain plan to industrially produce an exceptional, but very useful thing by means of biotechnology. As a matter of fact, Nexia's project is less about altering nature than harnessing it. And, if it does succeed – which seems very probable – the product, called \"\"Bio Steel\"\" may soon be used for a variety of applications, from medical sutures to bulletproof vests to space stations."

Exoenzymes are produced by both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and have been shown to be a crucial component of many biological processes. Most often these enzymes are involved in the breakdown of larger macromolecules. The breakdown of these larger macromolecules is critical for allowing their constituents to pass through the cell membrane and enter into the cell. For humans and other complex organisms, this process is best characterized by the digestive system which breaks down solid food [1] via exoenzymes. The small molecules, generated by the exoenzyme activity, enter into cells and are utilized for various cellular functions. Bacteria and fungi also produce exoenzymes to digest nutrients in their environment, and these organisms can be used to conduct laboratory assays to identify the presence and function of such exoenzymes. [ 2] Some pathogenic species also use exoenzymes as virulence factors to assist in the spread of these disease causing microorganisms. [ 3] In addition to the integral roles in biological systems, different classes of microbial exoenzymes have been used by humans since pre-historic times for such diverse purposes as food production, biofuels, textile production and in the paper industry.

Ford Runge Distinguished Mc Knight University Professor of Applied Economics and Law, University of Minnesota Gian-Luca Bagnara Dott., Ph D, Certified Management Consultant Lee Ann Jackson Graduate Research Assistant, Departments of Applied Economics and Law, University of Minnesota This paper provides an overview of the historical and cultural factors that have contributed to divergent U. S. and European views on GMOs, and to resulting different national regulatory approaches for these products, specifically labelling policy. Within the context of the international trading system, these national policy choices will have impacts that will spill over national borders. Dialogue may be difficult to achieve, given widely divergent views concerning GMOs; however, without dialogue potential global social benefits of policy harmonization will be forfeited. Introduction Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) burst onto the scene in 1996 with the rapid commercial introduction in the United States of genetically engineered corn (maize), cotton, and soybeans. By 1998, more than 500 genetically modified plant varieties were available in the United States, accounting for 28 percent (2.57 million hectares) of the area planted to maize, soybeans and cotton. Argentina and Canada had each planted an additional 100,000 hectares to GMOs, and other countries (South Africa, Spain, France, Mexico, China, Australia, Brazil) had planted less than 100,000 hectares each (James, 1999). Perhaps more significant to consumers, these crops rapidly entered the supply chain for processed foods using corn, soybean, or cotton seed oils, with some estimating that between 70 and 100 percent of processed foods now contain GMOs ( The Economist, 1999). In response to this rapid expansion, countries have developed diverse regulatory approaches to the production, marketing and development of these products. The United States has been a particularly strong advocate for the biotechnology industry in terms of intellectual property protection and limited governmental regulatory oversight in production and marketing."

Biotechnology includes any use of science or technology to alter the characteristics of a particular breed or animal. Biotechnology can be good or bad for animals - and it may also produce an answer to the ethical problems of experimenting on animals. Transgenic animals raise a particularly difficult problem. Human problems Newspaper articles about the ethical problems of genetically engineered animals are usually concerned about the danger these animals may pose to human beings (usually to human health), rather than any implications for the animals themselves. Animal rights Genetic engineering and selective breeding appear to violate animal rights, because they involve manipulating animals for human ends as if the animals were nothing more than human property, rather than treating the animals as being of value in themselves. Recent action to allow animals to be patented reinforces the idea of animals as human property, rather than beings in their own right. Animal welfare Biotechnology can be good for animals. Selective breeding and genetic engineering can benefit animals in many ways: Improving resistance to disease Breeding to remove characteristics that cause injuryeg selecting cattle without horns But biotechnology can also be bad for animals - the good effects for the breeder can offset by painful side-effects for the animals: Modern pigs have been bred to grow extra fast - some breeds now grow too fast for their hearts, causing discomfort when animals are too active Broiler chickens are bred to grow fast - some now grow too fast for their legs Regulating genetic engineering Profitability is one of the major drivers of both selective breeding and genetic engineering."

Many countries allow the import of GM food with authorization, but either do not allow its cultivation (Russia, Norway, Israel) or have provisions for cultivation, but no GM products are yet produced (Japan, South Korea). Most countries that do not allow for GMO cultivation do permit research. [ 1]One of the key issues concerning regulators is whether GM products should be labeled. Labeling of GMO products in the marketplace is required in 64 countries. [ 2] Labeling can be mandatory up to a threshold GM content level (which varies between countries) or voluntary. A study investigating voluntary labeling in South Africa found that 31% of products labeled as GMO-free had a GM content above 1.0%. [ 3] In Canada and the USA labeling of GM food is voluntary, [4] while in Europe all food (including processed food) or feed which contains greater than 0.9% of approved GMOs must be labelled. [ 5]There is a scientific consensus [6] [7] [8] [9] that currently available food derived from GM crops poses no greater risk to human health than conventional food, [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] but that each GM food needs to be tested on a case-by-case basis before introduction.

"text": "Biotech Industry Biotech Business World's Largest Biotech Hubs: Boston and the San Francisco Bay Share Flip Pin Email•••By Paul Diehl Updated August 14, 2017Several trips to Boston this year to visit multiple companies piqued my interest about how the biotechnology industry in this area compared with the San Francisco Bay Area where I have worked for most of my career. Of course, I was aware the Boston region, especially Cambridge, hosts a large biotech community. However, there are a number of biotech clusters in the US, and my experience was that, while there is certainly a focus of biotech businesses in these areas, the breadth and depth of biotech in the San Francisco area functioned at a whole different level. However, recent trips to Boston made it clear that the number of, small startups, large established pharmaceuticals, incubators sites, large biotech-focused research institutions, really rival the situation in the San Francisco area. It prompted my curiosity as to how the details of the two regions compare. How Big is Biotech in San Francisco and Boston? The regions around the San Francisco Bay and Boston employ about 50,000 people in bioscience-related jobs. However, most of the biotech jobs in Massachusetts appear to be more narrowly focused on pharmaceutical and biotech drug discovery. From the data at the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, in 2010 around 28,000 Massachusetts jobs—half the bioscience jobs—were focused on and biotech drug discovery. However, only about a quarter (15,000) of the San Francisco Bay area jobs were in the category."

The entrepreneur leader is the driving force for the forward momentum of the organization. The characteristics and core values of the leader are what influence the long-term success of the company. Managing the unknown-unknowns, being a multidisciplined translator, and creative problem-solving skills are a few of the important characteristics of successful entrepreneurs. The biotechnology entrepreneur is also a risk manager, and there are multiple forces that influence and impact the decisions they make when leading their company. In this chapter we will review what makes a biotechnology entrepreneur and discuss the important characteristics of these individuals, and describe the forces that influence an entrepreneur’s decisions.

Hybrid sterility is when the hybrid develops into a viable healthy offspring but is unable to reproduce; the sterility is often due to a difference between number of chromosomes in the hybrid's parent species. Hybrid breakdown is when the hybrid develops into a healthy offspring that carries the capability to reproduce."

If you have nausea, gas, and bloating you may be diagnosed with Deficient Spleen System Qi. What Does It Mean? The practitioner describes the disharmonies in terms of the patterns they manifest. These are known as the Eight Fundamental Patterns: Interior, Exterior; Heat, Cold; Excess, Deficiency; Yin, Yang. These terms are used to describe the way that disharmony is created in the mind/body/spirit. Interior and Exterior patterns tell the practitioner where in the body the disease resides. Interior patterns of disharmony are indicated if the disharmony is chronic, produces changes in urine and stool, if there is discomfort or pain in the torso and no aversion to cold or wind. Exterior patterns of disharmony often come on suddenly and are acute. Common signs include chills, fever, a dislike of cold and an achy feeling overall."

This is probably not a question most people feel comfortable asking non-medical professionals. However, this condition is a for concern for many people and is nothing to feel embarrassed about since it is usually an indication that something is wrong and the issue needs addressing by a medical professional. Black poop or melena usually has a foul odor. This condition is sometimes not a reason to be alarmed about as in the case of passing bright, bloody stool. However, it requires an occult blood test by a physician, which often is taken during an annual check up to rule out any abnormality. Black stool in no way means that you have hemorrhoid bleeding since hemorrhoidal bleeding is vibrant red. Dark poop means that the bleeding is not in the large bowels or rectum and is not occurring because of diverticulitis, a condition that develops in the colon and manifests itself with red, bloody stool. Why is the poop black if it has nothing to do with hemorrhoids or diverticulitis?"

Sometimes it can be a cause for alarm and other times not. Having blood in the stool may occur due to various reasons. The occurrence of blood and mucus together in stools, may be an indication of a digestive tract disease and should be taken seriously. Mucus and blood may occur due to an infection of the intestine or an infection in any part of the digestive tract. The blood may be a red color, in which case it is mostly indicative of an infection of the intestine. If the blood mucus appears black, then you may have an infection of the upper gastrointestinal tract.

"text": "Yesterday, my stool color was bright green. Should I be concerned? Answers from Michael F. Picco, M. D. Stool comes in a range of colors. All shades of brown and even green are considered normal. Only rarely does stool color indicate a potentially serious intestinal condition. Stool color is generally influenced by what you eat as well as by the amount of bile — a yellow-green fluid that digests fats — in your stool. As bile pigments travel through your gastrointestinal tract, they are chemically altered by enzymes, changing the pigments from green to brown. Consult your doctor if you're concerned about your stool color. If your stool is bright red or black — which may indicate the presence of blood — seek prompt medical attention. Stool quality What it may mean Possible dietary causes Green Food may be moving through the large intestine too quickly, such as due to diarrhea."

If the black color is from blood, it is known as \"\"melena.\"\" The dark color indicates that the blood has been in the body for some time, and is coming from higher up in the gastrointestinal tract. False Melena A black stool caused by food, supplements, medication, or minerals is known as \"\"false melena.\"\" Iron supplements, taken alone or as part of a multivitamin for iron-deficiency anemia, may cause stools to be black or even greenish in color. Foods that are dark blue or black in color may also cause black stools. Substances that can cause false melena are: Black licorice Blueberries Iron supplements Lead Bismuth (Pepto-bismol) A physician should be consulted immediately if black stools cannot be attributed to a benign cause, such as an iron supplement or a food. Diagnosing Melena The black color alone is not enough to determine that it is blood that is being passed in the stool."

"text": "\"Causes of Dog Health Blood in Stool Problems and Treatment Options\"\"Dog health blood in stool problems can have multiple causes and is never normal. The most common reasons for a bloody stool are parasites or an intestinal tract problem. Dog stool blood can indicate minor problems such as constipation (when the blood is red and the stool is dry and hard) to chronic conditions such as a bleeding tumor. Puppies in particular are subject to parasites (worms) and gastrointestinal infections that can result in anemia, sepsis and dehydration with a bloody stool being one of the symptoms. In puppies, red blood is almost always the result of parvovirus enteritis or intestinal parasites. For all dogs in general, treatment involves identifying the underlying cause and using a specific approach such as de-worming for parasites or dietary change to correct any food intolerance or allergy. A small red streak of blood along accompanied by a hard stool is probably due to constipation and is not of immediate concern. If you see a p a good amount of blood, visit your vet immediately for a rectal exam to check for anal and rectal tumors or an anal gland abscess. If there is a large amount of blood in the stool or if the blood is digested (black and tarry) a veterinarian needs to check for dehydration, coagulapathy and anemia immediately. \"\" Dog blood in stool can be caused by many things, including: Your dog might have eaten something really sharp that is cutting him internally A scratch near the anus or from straining to defecate due to constipation Symptoms of dog health blood stool in this beagle is due to an intestinal obstruction."

The material and style of the fence affects how well it performs in areas like security or privacy. Exploring all your backyard fencing options enables you to better choose the type of fence you need on your property. Wood Wood fences come in a variety of styles and heights to match your backyard needs. Wood privacy fences are typically about 6 feet tall to block the view into the yard from neighboring houses or streets. Local zoning regulations often dictate the maximum height allowable. Wooden picket fences are usually shorter with wider gaps between the wood slats. These fences work well for keeping animals inside and for a decorative addition to the backyard, but they don't provide much privacy. A split rail wood fence is primarily decorative in nature because the gaps between the rails are too wide to keep pets inside the yard. Chain Link Chain link is often the most affordable style of fencing and works well to keep children and pets inside the yard."

By Todd Daniel One of the most confusing terms in the ornamental metals business is the phrase \"\"wrought iron.\"\" However, the confusion is understandable since even dictionaries cannot agree on a single definition The first thing to clear up is the spelling. Many consumers spell the metal \"\"rod iron\"\" or \"\"rot iron. \"\" Secondly, when the public talks about wrought iron, they could be referring to one of three things - actual wrought iron, hand forged items, or the \"\"look\"\" of wrought iron. Your challenge is to determine what the customer actually wants. When someone calls your shop and says he wants a \"\"rod iron table,\"\" that person has something clear in mind.

"text": "Fence and Wall Cost Comparison Posted on June 29, 2015 by admin Wood Pros: Beautiful and versatile. Wood is great for privacy fences because slats can be placed tightly side-by-side. Wood can come in a wide variety of designs, unlike steel, aluminum or vinyl, which are limited to styles that manufacturers offer. Cons: Most wood, even if treated, requires protection with a stain or paint. Susceptible to termites, rotting and is not fire-resistant. Maintenance: Frequency depends on where you live and the wood type. Cedar has protective natural oils and may require no maintenance if you like the weathered gray appearance. Redwood, too, may require no treatment. Pine, though common and economical in most of the country, must be pretreated for use outdoors; you’ll probably want to stain, paint or clear-coat it because exposure to light gives it a mottled look. First, though, let wood dry three to six months, depending on the humidity of your climate."

"text": "One dilemma many homeowners are faced with is fence repair versus fence replacement. It can be difficult to tell if a leaning fence is structurally sound enough to replace only what’s needed, or if installing a whole new fence is your best option. If you have a leaning fence on your property, there are a few factors that come into play when deciding whether to fix it or ditch it entirely. Leaning Fence Repair For wooden leaning fences, probably the best way to determine whether fence repair is a good option is to check the integrity of its horizontal rails. If the rails are sturdy enough to hold a nail, you can generally replace the fence posts as well as any damaged panels to extend the life of the fence another 10 years. But if the fence rails are deteriorated to the point they cannot be secured, total replacement might be a better option. Metal fence repair is a far more involved process, and one that most homeowners are simply not equipped to do themselves. In some cases, however, an older metal fence is a good candidate for repair simply because of its age. Wrought iron fencing produced by a skilled hand is quite valuable and well-worth preserving and restoring. A badly leaning chain link fence, on the other hand, is probably better suited to total replacement."

"text": "View Article library »The Cost of Professional Fence Installation Share: Fence installation can be hard work, so if you're interested in one for your property, a professional should do it for you. Backyard fences can provide a feeling of security and privacy, as well as a decorative element that pulls your yard together. The cost of your fence will depend on a couple of factors, the main one being the materials used. There are all kinds of backyard fences to choose from: wood, vinyl, chain-link and wrought iron are some of the most popular. Another factor in the cost is the size of your yard, which determines how much fence you need. Below are popular fence choices and how much you can expect to pay for them. Vinyl Fences Sometimes vinyl fencing is more than three times the cost of wood, but there are advantages to this material. Vinyl is easy to maintain, easy to clean and is higher durable. It can be up to five times as strong as wood, and animals big and small will have a hard time chewing through it or damaging it. It also comes in a range of colors and styles, so you'll be able to find something that suits your house."

"text": "\"Wrought Iron | Rod Iron or Rot Iron Wrought Iron | Rod Iron or Rot Iron Wrought Iron, Rod Iron or Rot Iron One of the most confusing terms in the ornamental iron business is the phrase \"\"wrought iron. \"\" Wrought iron is so named because it is worked from a bloom of porous iron mixed with slag and other impurities. The word \"\"wrought\"\" is an archaic past tense form of the verb \"\"to work,\"\" and so \"\"wrought iron\"\" literally means \"\"worked iron\"\". Wrought iron is a general term for the commodity, but is also used more specifically for finished iron goods, as manufactured by a blacksmith or other smith. It was used in this narrower sense in British Customs records, such manufactured iron being subject to a higher rate of duty than what might be called \"\"unwrought\"\" iron. In the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, wrought iron went by a wide variety of terms according to its form, origin, or quality. Wrought Iron Form Bar iron—iron in bars, which are the usual product of the finery forge, but not necessarily made by that process. These might be square or flat, and flat bars might be narrow or broad. Rod iron—cut from flat bar iron in a slitting mill to provide the raw material for nails. Hoop iron—suitable for the hoops of barrels, made by passing rod iron through flat rolls."

"text": "How much does it cost to install a chain link fence? Known as a hurricane fence, cyclone fence, diamond mesh fence, or wire mesh fence, a chain link fence is an inexpensive fencing solution for homes and businesses. The fences are made out of galvanized steel wires that run vertically from top to bottom. The wires are bent at 45 degree angles around one another to form a diamond pattern that is durable and secure, but without wind resistance. This makes them a suitable fencing solution for areas that face frequent high winds and the damage that they can cause. Chain link fences can be installed nearly anywhere. They are frequently used, however, in situations such as: Utility areas or around HVAC units. Playgrounds and other areas where line of sight through the fence is necessary. High wind areas where a solid fence may sustain damage. Industrial areas where security is necessary."

"text": "How Much Does A Wrought Iron Fence Cost ? Though modern wrought iron fences are actually made from forged iron, they still make an attractive fencing option and give homes a high-class feel. Though many people think of wrought iron fences as expensive, depending on where you live and how much fencing you need, a wrought iron fence may be comparable with other types of fencing. Benefits Of Wrought Iron There are many benefits to having a wrought iron fence. For example, such fences are good deterrents against trespassers and thieves, because the thin posts are hard to grasp and the ornamental toppers make them hard to climb over. They also provide security without having to block out the view, making them perfect for fencing in pools or patios. Wrought iron fencing is durable and won’t sag or fall over like wood fencing nor is it easy to break through, like chain-link fencing. It also won’t warp like wood or plastic fencing in the heat, nor will it crack from ice or extremely cold temperatures. You also don’t have to worry about rotting or termite damage and it doesn’t have to be repainted often. Cost Of Wrought Iron Fence Your wrought iron fence price can vary greatly based on a number of factors."

By Bob Vila Photo: Etsy Cut nails bring a bygone air to wood floors, doors, cabinetry, or fencing. With their heads showing on or above the surface of the wood, cut nails provide the look of early American construction. Granted it may cost one-third more to finish a floor with cut nails, but they are the ideal accent for a period home or décor. Authenticity and Style Like nails made during the 19th century, cut nails are sheared by machine from steel plate, producing a nail with a distinctive wedge shape that ends in a blunt point. It is this particular profile that gives the nail its authenticity. Cut on all sides to produce four edges, they’re often called “square nails.” The characteristic square head looks distinctive on a wood floor. Beyond this, the differences between nails are subtler. Nail design varies mostly in the length of the shank and the size and shape of the head, which is proportionate to the shank."

Anna felt pain behind her knee and in her calf four months before she died, and she attributed her pain to the stress and strain of training for a half marathon or a muscle pull. Her friends at dental school noted that she limped, and Anna was aware of becoming short of breath whenever she ran. When her leg pain persisted, Anna saw an orthopedic surgeon who found no injury to suggest a muscle pull. After a thorough physical and review of her medical history, her doctor suspected a blood clot in her lower leg."

It is also the cause of many blood clots. Combined oral contraception can increase the chance of blood clots such as pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis (DVT). While the risk is only raised between 4-8%, the risk is much higher for women who have had a previous pulmonary embolism or DVT, especially if the blood clot occurred while the woman was on hormone therapy or oral contraception. For women who have had a pulmonary embolisn, DVT, or have thrombophilia this is a huge problem. Once a woman has had a clot or has been diagnosed with thrombophilia (the most common being Factor V Leiden), doctors will typically recommend that hormone based contraception be avoided. Involving Your Doctor Birth control is a very important topic to go over with a doctor. Speaking to more than one of the doctors that is working with a patient is often the best way to get an answer that the patient can be confident about. Some of the best choices of doctors to speak with are the patient's primary care physician, hematologist, and OBGYN. The various doctors can answer questions about the risks of pregnancy, interactions with anticoagulation, and risks and benefits of the different forms of contraception."

"text": "Thursday, April 05, 2018Fibrinolytic Therapy: What You Should Really Know ;Fibrinolytic therapy is a crucial medical treatment that makes use of certain special drugs that will work in the body to break down the blood clots blocking the major arteries. Health care professionals termed these highly valuable drugs sometimes as “clot busters” due to their ability to eliminate blood clotting. When heart attack occurs, these fibrinolytic agents or drugs can be used to save one’s life. Critical Information and its Benefit More often than not, heart attack, medically known as myocardial infarction, can happen when plaque or blood clot builds up in the body’s major artery, which is responsible for transporting blood into the heart. When plaque accumulates in the body’s vital artery, it blocks the blood from entering the vital organ causing it to function abnormally. Once blood flow stopped in a particular area of the human heart, that critical area will begin to die immediately. This threatening medical condition is known as ischemia. If an individual suffers from ischemic heart, there is a possibility that the sufferer can experience abnormal or irregular heart rhythms and this can result to unexpected fainting. In worst cases, this health complication can even lead to sudden death. On the other hand, if the clot blocks the supply of oxygenated blood in the brain, this can lead to stroke, which may impair any part of the body for a considerable amount of time."

The heart is a 4-chambered pump with 2 atria on top and 2 ventricles on bottom. Veins are thin-walled vessels that return oxygen-poor blood to the heart to get more oxygen from the lungs. The fluid pressure inside the vein is low so the walls don't have to be that strong. The arteries carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the organs and tissues so that they can receive oxygen + nutrients. Here are a few important arteries and veins: Aorta - largest artery in the body: it starts from the left ventricle and travels down through the chest and abdomen, dividing into the two iliac arteries that supply blood to the legs. Most of the important blood vessels to the vital organs of the chest, abdomen, and even [delicious] brain branch off the aorta.

"text": "\"Surgery Pa-St Peripheral Endarterectomy Peripheral endarterectomy Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Definition A peripheral endarterectomy is the surgical removal of fatty deposits, called plaque, from the walls of arteries other than those of the heart and brain. The surgery is performed when plaque blocks an artery and obstructs the flow of blood and oxygen to other parts of the body, most commonly the legs but also the arms, kidneys, or intestines. The peripheral arteries most often treated with endarterectomy are those that supply the legs, especially the aortoiliac arteries in the pelvic area. Other arteries that may be treated with endarterectomy include the femoral arteries in the groin, the renal arteries that supply the kidneys, and the superior mesenteric arteries that supply the intestines. Purpose Endarterectomy surgeries are performed to treat advanced peripheral arterial disease (PAD). PAD most often occurs as a result of atherosclerosis, a condition characterized by the gradual build up of fats, cholesterol, cellular waste, calcium, and other substances on the inner walls of large and medium-sized arteries. Plaque, the hardened, waxy substance that results from this build up, can cause narrowing (stenosis) of an artery and block the flow of blood and oxygen. Peripheral endarterectomies are performed to reopen blocked arteries and to restore blood flow in the body (revascularization), helping to prevent heart attack, stroke, the amputation of a limb, organ failure, or death. Demographics People who have been diagnosed with PAD caused by atherosclerosis are at high risk of arterial blockage (occlusion) and are candidates for peripheral endarterectomy. Occlusive arterial disease is found in 15 to 20% of men and women older than age 70."

At night, the pain was so intense that it woke her up, so she went to an orthopedic surgeon who ordered a scan. The test didn’t show any issues, so she forgot about it, until seven months later, when the newlyweds hopped a plane to San Francisco. On the return layover, Kate exited the plane, felt dizzy, and passed out in the terminal. The alarmed couple rented a car and drove back home to North Carolina, where she saw a doctor again. He chalked it up to dehydration. Then Kate started experiencing something new on her daily five-mile walks: “I was kind of short of breath. Since it was my first summer in North Carolina, I thought it was allergies or maybe that I was out of shape—so I would go extra hard on the elliptical machine.” She didn’t share her symptom with anyone and soon became preoccupied with packing for a family trip to Alaska and Seattle. As she waved hello to Starbucks’ stomping grounds from the Space Needle, Kate was completely unaware of the killer in her right calf."

Your vascular access is a way to bring your blood out of your body so it can be cleaned by hemodialysis and returned to you. The best type of vascular access is created under your skin, using your own blood vessels. Fistula access for hemodialysis An arteriovenous (AV) fistula surgically connects your artery and vein. Fistulas are the least likely to become infected or clotted, and can sometimes last for decades. They are the very best kind of access. When you first get a fistula, it will take a few months to mature. You can help the process by squeezing a rubber ball in the hand of your fistula arm. Graft access for hemodialysis An arteriovenous (AV) graft uses a piece of artificial vein to connect your artery and vein. Grafts need \"\"tune-ups\"\" more often than fistulas, but with good care, a graft can last for a few years."

Congenital hemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder characterized by an absent or reduced level of clotting factor VIII (8) or factor IX (9). In a person with normal amounts of clotting factors, when bleeding starts, all of the clotting factors work together to form a clot that stops the bleeding. People with hemophilia (PWH) are missing or have reduced amounts of one of these important clotting factors so bleeding continues until they receive treatment. People with factor VIII deficiency (hemophilia A, or “classic hemophilia”) have abnormalities or changes in the gene for FVIII, called mutations. As a result, they have absent or low levels of factor VIII in the blood. Without enough factor VIII, the body cannot form a stable blood clot. People with factor IX deficiency (hemophilia B, or “Christmas disease”) have abnormalities or changes in the gene for factor IX, called mutations. As a result, they have absent or low levels of factor IX in the blood. Without enough factor IX, the body cannot form a stable blood clot."

Deep vein thrombosis can cause leg pain or swelling, but also can occur with no symptoms. Deep vein thrombosis can develop if you have certain medical conditions that affect how your blood clots. It can also happen if you don't move for a long time, such as after surgery or an accident, or when you're confined to bed. Deep vein thrombosis can be very serious because blood clots in your veins can break loose, travel through your bloodstream and lodge in your lungs, blocking blood flow (pulmonary embolism). Symptoms Deep vein thrombosis signs and symptoms can include: Swelling in the affected leg. Rarely, there's swelling in both legs. Pain in your leg. The pain often starts in your calf and can feel like cramping or soreness. Red or discolored skin on the leg."

"text": "Sara August 21, 2013How Long Does it Take to Recover from a PE? I get asked a lot, how long does it take to recover from a PE? Most individuals that I have talked to about recovery from a pulmonary embolism want to know, how long they can expect to be healing. The short, uncomplicated answer is recovery is different for everyone. Keep that in mind. The extent of the damage to your body and other organs, underlying health issues, additional diagnosis and potential or discovered clotting disorders can all factor in to answer how long does it take to recover from a PE? The longer, but still less complicated answer to how long does it take to recover from a PE depends on how your body heals. Contrary to common belief, blood thinners in fact do not dissolve blood clots. Only the body can dissolve a blood clot and in some cases, the blood clot does not dissolve and will not dissolve. As the blood thins (for example when on a blood thinner) and travels throughout the veins, it actually hits the clot and can eventually break away enough to flow by it in some cases."

"text": "Sara July 31, 2013How To Talk to Your Doctor about a Possible Blood Clot Once in a while I get an email from acquaintances – or even strangers– describing what they fear is a symptom (s) of a blood clot in their legs. More often than not, the individual tells me they have already scheduled an appointment with their Primary Care Physician (PCP) and are waiting – and worrying – to find out what might be wrong. For many of these individuals, they have never had a blood clot before, and they want to approach their doctors with specific questions pertaining to testing and determining if in fact they do have a blood clot. And, many of these emails have concluded with, “What did you tell your doctor because I am worried he/she might not think to look for a blood clot?” I have found it is often difficult to decide how to talk to your doctor about a possible blood clot either because we don’t know what to say or are embarrassed to do so. I always respond to these inquiries with the same information (starting with I am glad to hear you are listening to what your body is telling you) and explain that in my situation there was no time to contact a physician because by the time I realized something was wrong, I was struggling not only to walk, but breathe because the blood clot had traveled from my leg and lodged in my lung as a pulmonary embolism (PE) escalating from a manageable situation to a critical one. There was no time for preliminary discussions because I was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for immediate care and observation. Still, I believe many blood clots – especially blood clots in the limbs (DVT) – are treatable before they dislodge and cause major problems to the heart, lungs or brain. If I had identified the pain in my calf as a serious and needing medical attention, I would have wondered what to ask my PCP when I was there. I would have gone in and said, “It hurts and I don’t know why,” and would still be hoping for the best possible outcome."

What Is a Blood Clot? A blood clot is a buildup of blood and tissue inside one of your veins or arteries, a natural bodily function that can quickly become a deadly killer. When blood fails to circulate properly, blood clots form. When you are wounded, blood naturally clots to stop bleeding. However, blood clots can also create a blockage in your veins or arteries, break loose and travel to the heart, lungs or brain, causing life-threatening heart attacks, strokes, embolisms or other health emergencies.

It seemed to be under a lot of pressure too, which was due to the blood being unable to circulate properly. A blood clot in the leg, call Deep Vein Thrombosis, causes the following symptoms. Swelling, gradual onset of pain, redness, warmth to the touch, leg pain worsens when bending the foot, leg cramps (especially at night), bluish or whitish discoloration of the skin.

Veins are blood vessels that return deoxygenated blood from the outer parts of the body back to the heart and lungs. When veins become abnormally thick, full of twists and turns, or enlarged, they are called varicose vein. This happens most commonly in the veins in the legs and thighs. The thickened, twisting or dilated parts of the vein are called varicosities. Varicose veins can form anywhere in the body, but they are most often located in the legs. Varicose veins tend to be inherited, and become more prominent as a person ages. Veins in the leg are either superficial or deep. The superficial veins and their branches are close to the skin."

"text": "I get asked a lot, how long does it take to recover from a PE? Most individuals that I have talked to about recovery from a pulmonary embolism want to know, how long they can expect to be healing. The short, uncomplicated answer is recovery is different for everyone. Keep that in mind. The extent of the damage to your body and other organs, underlying health issues, additional diagnosis and potential or discovered clotting disorders can all factor in to answer how long does it take to recover from a PE? The longer, but still less complicated answer to how long does it take to recover from a PE depends on how your body heals. Contrary to common belief, blood thinners in fact do not dissolve blood clots. Only the body can dissolve a blood clot and in some cases, the blood clot does not dissolve and will not dissolve. As the blood thins (for example when on a blood thinner) and travels throughout the veins, it actually hits the clot and can eventually break away enough to flow by it in some cases. The body can also accommodate for the damaged area by creating scar tissue and rerouting blood flow through or around the clot."

A blood clot forms in one of the deep veins in the body is called deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Clots form when venous blood flow is obstructed. DVT most often occurs in the lower legs, thighs, or pelvis, but can occur in other deep veins (e.g., in the arm). If the blood clot breaks off (embolus) from the wall of a vein and travels to the lungs, this can create a life threatening pulmonary embolism (PE). Veins When muscles that surround veins move, they squeeze the vein. The squeezing action causes blood to flow through one-way valves, which move blood towards the heart, thus preventing backflow and pooling of blood. Veins are divided into two different groups; superficial veins, and deep veins."

Stem cell transplants are also used for multiple myeloma and neuroblastoma, and they’re being studied as a treatment for other cancers, too. Why do cancer patients consider these transplants? While high doses of chemotherapy and radiation can effectively kill cancer cells, they have an unwanted side effect: They can also destroy the bone marrow, where blood cells are made. The purpose of a stem cell transplant or a bone marrow transplant is to replenish the body with healthy cells and bone marrow when chemotherapy and radiation are finished."

For example, you might have one if you have leukemia, multiple myeloma, or some types of lymphoma. Doctors also treat some blood diseases with stem cell transplants. In the past, patients who needed a stem cell transplant received a “bone marrow transplant” because the stem cells were collected from the bone marrow. Today, stem cells are usually collected from the blood, instead of the bone marrow. For this reason, they are now more commonly called stem cell transplants.

AML is a fast-growing blood cancer. It’s also called acute myelogenous leukemia. In AML, the body makes unhealthy blood-forming cells (stem cells) that don’t develop properly. These cells grow quickly in the bone marrow (soft, spongy tissue inside the bones). They prevent the marrow from making normal red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. With fewer healthy blood cells, the body can’t fight infections or stop bleeding. How does blood or marrow transplant (BMT) work for AML? BMT, also known as a bone marrow transplant or blood stem cell transplant, can treat patients who have AML, including older patients. It replaces the unhealthy blood-forming cells (stem cells) with healthy ones."

The umbilical cord is the cord that connects your baby to the placenta. The placenta grows in your uterus (womb) and supplies your baby with food and oxygen through the umbilical cord. Cord blood contains stem cells. These are cells that can grow into specific kinds of cells in your body. Stem cells may be used to treat some diseases, like some forms of cancer and anemia. Anemia is when you don’t have enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen to the rest of your body. Sometimes cord blood is discarded along with the umbilical cord and the placenta after a baby is born. But some people want to store or donate cord blood (also called banking cord blood) so it can be used later to treat diseases."

Graft vs. Host Disease (Gv HD) is a reaction that develops after an allogeneic bone marrow transplant. An allogeneic transplant is one in which the donor is not the same person as the recipient. It is also possible to have your own bone marrow cells harvested and transplanted back into you, if you are scheduled to have a treatment that will damage them. This is called an autologous bone marrow transplant. Bone marrow cells are a major component of the immune system. In Gv HD, the transplanted cells see the recipient’s body as foreign. The grafted cells then attack their new host. This is how the condition got its name. Gv HD is extremely common after bone marrow transplantation."

"text": "Types of Bone Marrow Transplants The main distinction between the two major types of bone marrow transplant (BMT) has to do with whose stem cells are being transplanted—the child’s own cells or cells from a donor. Autologous Bone Marrow Transplant In autologous transplants, the transplanted stem cells come from the body of the child having the transplant. The doctors remove the stem cells from the child, store them, and then put these cells back after destroying the cancer or diseased cells with conditioning. If your child is having an autologous transplant, you do not need a donor; the child acts as his or her own donor. However, your child will have to undergo either bone marrow harvesting or stem cell mobilization in order to gather the stem cells. The advantage of using the child’s own stem cells is that he or she will not face the complication of graft-versus-host disease (when donated white blood cells attack the child’s healthy cells). However, with an autologous transplant the child does not have the same graft-versus-tumor benefits (when the donated white blood cells attack the child’s diseased cells). As a result, there is a higher relapse rate with autologous transplants, and this type is not suitable for some diseases or patients. Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplant For some diseases, the transplanted stem cells come from another person, called a donor. Donor transplants are called allogeneic transplants."

Multiple myeloma is a malignant tumour of a type of white blood cell (the plasma cell). Blood cells of all types are made in the bone marrow, which in adults occupies the central position of bones – such as the vertebrae, ribs, pelvis and skull. White blood cells are there to protect against infection and plasma cells make antibodies, which are specialised proteins capable of 'recognising' invading foreign substances or organisms – 'antigens'. Multiple myeloma is a cancer of plasma cells, which are making excessive amounts of antibody (termed paraprotein or 'M' band). In common with all cancers, all the plasma cells in myeloma are identical to each other ('clonal'), because they originate from a single abnormal cell that starts to multiply out of control. The protein produced is, therefore, also identical ('monoclonal' meaning the product of a single clone). Multiple myeloma has three main effects."

Hodgkin's disease accounts for about 15% of all lymphomas. Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas is a term for malignancies that range from a very slow disease to an extremely aggressive but curable condition. They have certain features in common. The lymphatic system filters fluid from around cells. It is an important part of the immune system. When people refer to swollen glands in the neck, they are usually referring to swollen lymph nodes. Common areas where lymph nodes can be easily felt, especially if they are enlarged include the groin, armpits (axilla), above the clavicle (supraclavicular), in the neck (cervical), and the back of the head just above hairline (occipital). The Lymphatic System Lymphomas, such as non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and Hodgkin's disease, represent tumors of the lymphatic system. This system is a network of organs, ducts, and nodes."

Allergy blood testing can help reveal what triggers your allergy symptoms and help your doctor choose the best treatment for you. Types of Allergy Blood Tests Allergy blood tests detect and measure the amount of allergen-specific antibodies in your blood. When you come into contact with an allergy trigger, known as an allergen, your body makes antibodies against it. The antibodies tell cells in your body to release certain chemicals. These chemicals are what cause allergy symptoms. Immunoglobulin E (Ig E) is an antibody that's strongly linked to the body's allergy response.

You may have seen pictures similar to the above. Many manufacturers and practitioners claim that it removes toxic matter in the body by soaking your feet in an aqua tub. The treatment is normally given by soaking your feet in water with salt added to aid the conductivity of the water. Then, low electrical current is transmitted through two electrodes. They claim that water turning reddish brown is the toxic matter removed from the body. Depending on the color, they claim that yellowish color is from the kidney and bladder toxins, orange is from arthritis-related illness, dark brown is from liver-related diseases, and so on."

"text": "Allergy testing lets your veterinarian develop a custom treatment for your dog. If your dog suffers from allergies and other treatments haven't eased his symptoms, your veterinarian may recommend an allergy test. The test will determine exactly what your dog is allergic to so that he can receive a vaccine against the specific allergen. Skin Test A skin, or intradermal allergy test, involves shaving off a patch of fur and injecting your dog with a small amount of various potential allergens in a grid-like pattern. The veterinarian then checks to see if your dog's skin reacts to the injections. This is the most common and reliable type of allergy testing available for dogs. Prices for this test vary from clinic to clinic and may depend on the number of allergens tested. Usually, around 60 different allergens are used, and the cost of the test averages $200. Blood Test Blood testing is easier on your dog, since he doesn't have to be subjected to multiple injections. It also can be performed by your regular veterinarian, without the need for a specialist."

"text": "Mediator Release Testing (MRT) FAQThere are many different types of reactions that can trigger food sensitivities. The symptoms we experience from a what is known as a loss of oral tolerance to food is caused by mechanisms . These mechanisms are molecules such as histamine, leukotrienes,cytokines, and prostaglandins. Most alternative practitioners try to measure food sensitivities with an Ig G test but this is only one type of immune reaction and research has shown it is not an accurate test (click here to download research). Ig G is a one mechanism of an immune response that may or may not release the mediators that cause symptoms. There may also be non-immune responses such as a histamine intolerance or lectin damage to the intestinal cells. There may also be intestinal allergies (Ig E) which will not get picked up on any test – even an Ig E allergy test. Mediator Release Testing (MRT) is the primary food sensitivity testing I use when it appears a person’s symptoms are caused by a foods they are eating which causes a peripheral immunocyte response. That is a fancy way of saying that there is an immune reaction that can be measured in the blood and we assume the cause is food antigens. These reactions trigger symptoms such as migraines, fibromyalgia, and IBS."

"text": "\"Pets with allergies: An overview Licking, chewing, scratching, and rubbing as well as recurrent skin and ear infections and hot spots are common signs of allergies in pets. The areas commonly affected include the feet, belly, armpits, face, chin, ears, neck, rump, and thighs, and secondary infections are common in these areas. Other conditions including those caused by parasitic and infectious organisms may result in similar symptoms, so Dr. Buerger will need to understand your pet's medical history and perform a thorough dermatologic examination as well as a few basic tests to be certain that allergy is indeed the problem. Allergic symptoms can be year-round or they can be seasonal (during particular seasons) depending upon which allergies are present. Allergies usually begin between 6 months and 3 years of age, but may begin at any time. Retrievers, terriers, and shepherds are more likely to have problems with allergies than other breeds. The tendency to develop allergies runs in families (as in people). Unlike people pets with allergies seldom \"\"outgrow\"\" them, and their allergies commonly get worse and less responsive to treatments with each passing year. The symptoms of allergy can often be improved or controlled with one or more of the following: antihistamines, cortisone (i.e. prednisone) tablets, Apoquel® tablets, Atopica® capsules, Cytopoint® injections, frequent shampoos, flea preventatives, and in some instances restricted hypoallergenic diets. It's also important to maintain a clean and matt-free coat."

"text": "Grains: Sensitivities beyond wheat Sound Consumer August 2011 | by Tom Ballard, R. N., N. D. Allergy vs. sensitivity A true allergy involves an antigen-antibody reaction. An antigen can be anything containing a protein, something as apparently harmless as pollen, dust, or a microscopic amount of peanut protein. An antibody is a molecule released by the body in response to a perceived invader. With true allergies, the immune system overreacts, attacking the protein with antibodies. The allergic reaction prompts the symptoms of the antigen-antibody battle: heat, redness and swelling. These can show up anywhere: red eyes, swollen nasal passages, skin rash, asthma or, in severe forms, a generalized inflammatory reaction (anaphylaxis). Allergic sensitivity can be measured by skin or blood testing. Sensitivities, are reactions, too, often producing the same allergy-like symptoms. Yet the body does not produce antibodies and thus standard allergy testing is not useful. It’s important to note that allergies and sensitivities essentially are inflammatory reactions that can happen anywhere in the body."

Type 1 food allergies occur in less than 5 percent of the population -- mostly in children, They are also called immediate-onset, Ig E-mediated and/or atopic food allergies. Usually occurring in the genetically predisposed individual, the immune system begins creating a specific type of antibody called Ig E (immunoglobulin Ig E) to certain foods. One side of the Ig E antibody will recognize and tenaciously bind to the allergic food. The other side of the antibody is attached to a specialized immune cell packed with histamine, called the Mast cell. Primed for action, the Ig E antibody now only have to patiently wait for re-exposure to food allergens. When you eat the allergic food the next time, Ig E antibodies hungrily latch onto the food. Instantaneously histamine and other allergy-related chemicals -- called chemical mediators -- are released from the mast cell, rapidly bringing on the unwelcome appearance of stomach cramping, diarrhea, skin rashes, hives, swelling, wheezing or the most dreaded of Type 1 reactions, anaphylaxis. Type 3 Delayed-Onset Food Allergy... Type 3 immune reactions are much more commonly involved in food allergy than Type 1 reactions. A Type 3 food allergy also involves the immune system."

"text": "Blood Type Tips to Stop Food Allergies Posted on July 17, 2012 by Michael SWilliams What are Food Allergies? You have a food allergy when you experience unusual immune reactions to a food product that is completely harmless to other people. This reaction normally occurs when your body begins to produce antibodies against the protein that is found in a food. The protein in a food is called allergen and when it hits your system, the histamine and other defensive chemicals are released that results to an inflammation. The results of these reactions differ with each person, some symptoms are seen immediately while some experience delayed reactions. There are also people whose allergies manifest through emotional episodes and mental imbalance- both can be cured with a proper prescription medicine from a doctor. There are common allergens that trigger the allergic reaction. These are milk, fish, eggs, chicken, crabs, peanuts, sesame seeds, soybeans and nuts. Symptoms that you experience during an allergic reaction may be any of the following: Shortness of breath, low blood pressure, skin rash, itchy eyes, wheezing, coughing, itchy throat, vomiting, diarrhea, feeling bloated, feeling of disgust, lip swelling and coughing. Below are the types of allergies and the food that cause it: Types of Food Allergies TYPE Occurrence Present in Symptoms How to Detect Type 1 – Ig E Within 1 – 60 minutes Beans, Nuts, Seafood, Dairy, Ragweed, Pollen Anaphylactic shock, Asthma, Running nose, Eczema, Red cheeks, Red ears, Hives RAST–Ig E blood test, Immuno Cap-Ig E blood test Type 2 – Lectins Within 8 – 72 hours Vegetables, Beans, Seafood Digestive problems (Diarrhea, Bloating, Lactose Intolerance), Anemia Type 3 – Ig G Within 8 -72 hours Wheat, Oats, Barley, Rye, Milk, Eggs Autoimmune, Inflammation ELISA-Ig G, mrast-Ig GType 4 – T-cells Within 8 – 73 hours Dairy, Sugars, Nightshades Inflammation, Autoimmune condition, Tissue Damage ELISA/ACT, LRA Blood Test Type 5 – Ig D Delayed response Food additives, Iodine, Alcohol, Gluten grains, Chemical Dye Fever, Inflammation, Hives, Eczema None Information source: http://www.laurapower.com/page5.html Difference between food allergy and food intolerance Some people tend to get confused between food allergies and food intolerance."

"text": "Blower Motor Relay Replacement Service What is the Blower Motor Relay all about? Most of your car’s accessories require a relay in order to operate – your headlights, the cooling fan on the radiator, etc. This includes the blower motor that pushes conditioned air out of the vents and into the cabin of the car. Your vehicle will have at least one blower motor relay. If you have more than one blower motor in the vehicle, such as with a rear air conditioning system, each separate system will have its own relay in place. Think of the relay like a controller – it determines whether the system operates or not when you turn the switch. If the blower motor relay fails, you’ll have no fan functionality in most instances, although some systems provide control of the “high” fan setting to the fan switch itself, rather than the relay (note that this varies considerably from one vehicle to another). Over time and through normal use, the blower motor relay may degrade and fail. When it does, you’ll need to replace it in order to enjoy proper airflow in the car. Keep in mind: The blower motor relay is not inspected during any maintenance service."

"text": "Symptoms of a Bad or Failing Blower Motor Relay If the blower motor does not function, car fuses are blown, or relays are melting, you may have to replace the car blower motor relay.by Ed Ruelas on January 04, 2016Share Tweet Pin The blower motor relay is the electrical switch that is used to supply the power for the vehicle’s blower motor. The blower motor is the component responsible for pushing air through the vents of your vehicle’s heating and air conditioning systems. Without it, the AC system will not be able to circulate any heated or cooled air. The blower motor relay controls the current used to power the blower motor, and is subject to the constant on and off switching. Over time, it can eventually wear out. When the blower motor relay does begin to fail, the vehicle will usually display a few symptoms that alert the driver of a potential problem that should be serviced.1. Blower motor does not function One of the first symptoms of a problem with the blower motor relay is a blower motor that does not function at all. As the relay is the switch that supplies current to the blower motor, if it fails internally, then power will be cut off from the blower motor circuit, causing the motor to no longer function or blow any air from the vents.2. Blown fuses One of the first symptoms of a bad or failing AC blower motor relay is a blown AC blower motor relay circuit fuse. If the blower motor relay develops any sort of problem that hinders its ability to properly limit and distribute power, it may cause the blower motor fuse to blow."

I wrote about my problems with using ACHnat a while back, and when I posted that article at Green Building Advisor (GBA) recently, Stuart Staniford wrote one of those comments that left me thinking, Dang, I should have known that. Staniford, another physicist I've known since 2005 through my peak oil obsession, pointed out that there really is something we need ACHnat for when he wrote, \"\"there's no other way to turn the infiltration rate into btus, right?\"\" D'oh! Of course, and we need to turn infiltration rate into BTUs for energy modeling, something I'm in the middle of teaching to two new crops of home energy raters over the next two weeks (here in Atlanta and then in Toronto). The issue came back into focus for me a couple of weeks ago when I wrote about the little ventilation dustup between John Krigger and Paul Raymer, two other folks who know more than I. When I posted that article at GBA this week, I added the following bit to it after going back and reading one of my favorite Joe Lstiburek articles. Blower doors and mechanical ventilation One problem in the great ventilation debate is that weatherization and home performance crews are trying to using blower doors to determine if they need to add mechanical ventilation. Joe Lstiburek wrote about this issue in his article http://www.buildingscience.com/documents/insights/bsi-053-just-right-and-airtight. After opening with praise for using a blower door to help make homes more airtight and to measure leakage, he then wrote: But then they think that a blower door actually is a precise measuring tool for how air will leak across the building during service.

The blower motor is a fan housed in the heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) ducts, normally located behind the glove box. When the heater or air conditioner are active, the blower motor pushes the desired temperature of air through the selected vents. How does the heater blower motor work? Inside the HVAC box, the blower motor sits behind the heater core and air conditioner evaporator. When the heater is selected, the blower motor sucks in air, and blows it across the hot heater core, thus providing heat from the vents. Likewise, when the air conditioner is active, the blower motor blows air across the cold evaporator, which blows cold air through the vents."

"text": "\"Everything You Want to Know About Superchargers We'll Start With Supercharger Basics There are currently three basic types of superchargers being sold in the performance market today: the Roots type, centrifugal, and \"\"screw\"\" type. We'll use the terms supercharger and blower interchangeably. The centrifugal supercharger is very similar to a turbocharger, except the centrifugal supercharger is driven by a belt off the engine, while the turbocharger is driven by the force of the exhaust gases. These type of superchargers (or turbos) run at extremely high speeds. To achieve these high speeds in the centrifugal supercharger, there is an additional internal step-up drive inside the blower. Due to the design of these units, the faster the impeller spins the more boost the blower makes. As a result, these units typically do not produce much power at low engine speeds because the impeller is not spinning fast enough to make much boost. If it were even possible to gear the blower so that it would spin fast at low engine speeds, it would then make too much boost at higher engine speeds. Turbos employ a device called a \"\"wastegate,\"\" which bypasses exhaust gas past the turbo when a certain boost limit is reached. The screw type blower appears somewhat similar to a Roots type blower from the outside, but the internal rotors are quite different."

Blue moon of the December 2009 lunar eclipse A blue moon is an additional full moon that appears in a subdivision of a year: either the third of four full moons in a season, or a second full moon in a month of the common calendar. The phrase has nothing to do with the actual color of the moon, although a literal \"\"blue moon\"\" (the moon appearing with a tinge of blue) may occur in certain atmospheric conditions: e.g., if volcanic eruptions or fires leave particles in the atmosphere of just the right size to preferentially scatter red light.

The \"\"blue moon\"\" reference is applied to the third full moon in a season with four full moons, [2] thus correcting the timing of the last month of a season that would have otherwise been expected too early. This happens every two to three years (seven times in the Metonic cycle of 19 years). [ 3] The March 1946 issue of Sky & Telescope misinterpreted the traditional definition, which led to the modern colloquial misunderstanding that a blue moon is a second full moon in a single solar calendar month with no seasonal link. Owing to the rarity of a blue moon, the term \"\"blue moon\"\" is used colloquially to mean a rare event, as in the phrase \"\"once in a blue moon\"\".

"text": "\"Mark Harrison, IT Consultant, once and future CTOAnswered Feb 27, 2012 · Author has 8.5k answers and 24.2m answer views The first use of the term seems to have come from a 1528 poem, where the term was used to mean 'something absurd.' However, in 1883, we saw the first recorded, actual, blue moon - when Mount Krakatoa, an Indonesian volcano, scattered ash with a typical particle size about 1 micron - spot on to scatter red light, allowing only light from the blue end of the spectrum to pass. Krakatoa was huge, and while blue moons were recorded after, say, Mount St. Helens, in 1990, the effects were more localised - Krakatoa's blue moons, and the associated lavendar suns and violently red sunsets were recorded in New York State - a long way from Indonesia. In the UK, the term is normally attributed to mean 'something as rare as a volcano that kicks up ash you can see on the other side of the world' - this is certainly what I was taught it meant in the 1970s. In the US, however, the term picked up some other meanings. In 1932, the Maine Farmer's almanac introduced a new meaning for the term - a (calendar) season in which there were four full moons rather than the average of three... the third of four being called a 'blue moon'. This is a rare event, just not as rare as volcanoes of the scale of Krakatoa. However, this usage lasted about 14 years, until, owing to a misunderstanding by an article writer, a 1946 astronomy magazine gave an incorrect definition - a calendar month in which there two full moons. This happens about once every other year. This is the definition that caught on, to the extent that Trivial Pursuit gives it as correct :-) [References above from http://space.about.com/od/astron... ] As for the Google calculator answer... Wikipedia classes it as a hoax, and notes that the calculator also lists 'number of horns on a unicorn', (1) and 'the answer to life, the universe and everything' (42) As for why '1.16699016 x 10^-8 hertz' was chosen - my speculation is that it's Google's representation of 'once every e years'... but I'd need a Googlite to confirm by theory...1.2k Views · View Upvoters Related Questions More Answers Below Where did the saying \"\"an elephant never forgets\"\" come from?"

We know that even some seasoned sailors tend to just wing it – a dangerous concern. This learn to sail series article will dispelled any concerns about understanding, reading and predicting tides. Gravitational Pull Tides took a lot of figuring out by some very smart people over the ages including Galileo. But now that the principle causes of tides are understood and quite well mathematically modeled, they are pretty easy to understand by the average Joe when explained properly. Tides exist solely because of the celestial bodies the moon and the sun. The moon is relatively close but comparatively small. The sun is far away but a giant when it comes to mass. Gravitational pull increases linearly with mass but decreases inversely with the square of the distance. So when you balance these out and do the calculations, the sun’s effect is 46% that of the moon."

DSpace/Astronomy Expert You’ve probably heard the phrase “once in a blue Moon”, usually referring to a rare event. But where does the phrase come from? And does the Moon ever actually appear blue? The Meaning of “Blue Moon”Dating back to the 1800’s the term “blue moon” was used by the Farmer’s Almanac to denote the appearance of a third full Moon in a season where four full Moon’s will occur. Since there are normally 12 full Moon’s a year (one per month), this works out to three per quarter (three month period). However, occasionally a quarter will see four full Moon’s. The naming arises because each Moon in a given season has its own name. This tradition of naming full Moons has existed for hundreds of years across many cultures. The names generally accepted today are those coming from the Farmer’s Almanac."

Today’s full moon qualifies as a Blue Moon because it’s the third full moon in a season with four (most seasons have only three). Historically, there have been two different definitions of a Blue Moon. Technically, a Blue Moon is the third full moon in a four-full-moon season. However, a 1946 article in “Sky & Telescope” magazine mistakenly defined it as the second full moon in a single month (since most months have only one full moon), and the definition stuck. Because August will have just this one full moon, it wouldn’t meet the mistaken, though commonly used, definition, though it does qualify as a technical Blue Moon. [ 10 Surprising Moon Facts]The moon’s extra names come from traditional monikers for the full moon of a given month. A few hundred years ago, Native American tribes in what’s now the northeastern United States kept track of seasons by ascribing particular names to each full moon. Later, European settlers added their own names for the full moons to the lexicon. The annual August full moon has come to be known as the Full Sturgeon Moon, because the large fish called sturgeon can most easily be caught at this time of year."

History of expression: The 'moon' in this expression does, in fact, refer to the real moon when it is full. There are generally three full moons in a season, although sometimes there may be four. The third full moon visible on the rare occasions that there are four in a season is known as a 'blue moon'. But why blue? The word derives from the Old English word 'belewe', which had two separate meanings. One of them was 'blue'. The other was 'betrayer'. Many years ago, before the Gregorian calendar was reformed, the church used to calculate the date that Easter would take place that year on the cycle of the moon. When a 'blue moon' appeared in the sky, the clergy needed to warn people that this did not represent the end of Lent and therefore bring an end to fasting, but was, in fact, a 'betrayer moon'!Examples:\"\" Once in a blue moon I go to the cinema, only when there's a film I really, really want to see. \"\"\"\""

"text": "By Ella Davies10 September 2015Fatness is not unique to us humans. There are plenty of supersized animals out there. But determining which animal is the fattest isn’t as straightforward as it may appear. As the largest animal in the world, the blue whale ( Balaenoptera musculus) also has the most fat. In a 1968 study involving 49 different species of mammal from across the US and Brazil, researchers deduced that the blue whale had the highest percentage of body fat – more than 35%. With the whales weighing in at up to 180 tonnes, that’s easily a record-breaking amount of fat for one animal. But if we look at things proportionally, you might be surprised by some of the world’s full-fat species. We’ll begin with blubber, the fat rich tissue belonging to marine mammals that has myriad benefits for streamlining, buoyancy, defence, insulation and energy storage. Among the whales with the thickest blubber are the so-called right whales ( Eubalaena ). They are popularly thought to have earned this common moniker during the bloody era of whale hunting in the 19th Century."

Their giant tongues alone can equal the weight of an elephant and their hearts can weigh as much as a car. These massive marine mammals get their spectacular size eating mostly tiny shrimplike creatures called krill. At certain times of the year, an adult blue whale consumes approximately 4 tons of krill daily. Blue whales are baleen whales or filter feeders. Their upper jaws contain comb-like plates of material, called baleen. They eat by gulping a mouthful of water, then they press their tongue against theirs jaw to force the water thorough the baleen plates, leaving behind thousands of krill, which are then swallowed. Under water, these massive sea creatures look true blue."

They filter krill through their baleen, and need 4-8 tons of the tiny plankton per day to survive. Each whale’s jaws contains about 320 pairs of black baleen plates with dark gray bristles. A blue whale tongue alone can weigh as much as an elephant. The animals live to be 80-90 years old and live all around the world’s oceans, spending summers in cold polar waters and winters closer to the Equator. They cruise the oceans at a speed of about 5 miles per hour, but can accelerate quickly to 20 mph when they need to. Water carries sound efficiently, and other whales living 1,000 miles away can hear the creaks, squeaks and groans that blue whales make underwater."

In terms of sheer size, nothing on Earth, now or even in the prehistoric past, can match the blue whale. A few dinosaurs may have come close, but so far as we know, the blue whale is the largest creature that’s ever lived. ( If you think about the physics of anatomy, the maximum size sea of a sea creature, whose body is supported by water, is almost always going to be larger than the largest possible land animal. ) Because the blue whale is so large and difficult to weigh and measure, and because the largest whales were killed during the early years of whaling, there’s not always agreement about the ultimate dimensions of the blue whale . What’s clear, is that the animal is huge!Here is what natural David Attenborough has to say about the blue whale in the amazing BBC video series The Blue Planet: Blue Whale - Blue Planet - BBC wildlife Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available.

Below, you'll find a list of the 20 biggest mammals alive today, in 20 different weight classes, starting with the most humongous of the bunch (the Blue Whale) and working our way down. ( See also The 20 Biggest Prehistoric Mammals . ) 01of 20Biggest Whale - The Blue Whale (200 Tons)The Blue Whale, the world's biggest whale. Wikimedia Commons At about 100 feet long and 200 tons, not only is the Blue Whale the biggest mammal in the world today, but it's the largest vertebrate animal in the history of life on earth: not even the largest dinosaurs approached it in bulk. ( Sure, some titanosaurs were over 100 feet long, but they almost certainly didn't weigh more than 100 tons.) Fittingly enough, the Blue Whale is also the loudest animal on the planet; this cetacean can vocalize at 180 decibels, enough to render most other animals deaf.02of 20Biggest Elephant - The African Elephant (7 Tons)The African Elephant, the world's biggest elephant. Wikimedia Commons The largest land-dwelling mammal on earth, at seven tons, the African Elephant is an order of magnitude smaller than the Blue Whale (see slide #2) for a good reason: the buoyancy of water helps to counteract the Blue Whale's weight, and elephants are completely terrestrial. By the way, one of the reasons the African Elephant has such enormous ears is to help dissipate its internal body heat--a warm-blooded, seven-ton mammal generates a lot of calories in the course of the day.03of 20Biggest Dolphin - The Killer Whale (6 to 7 Tons)The Killer Whale, the world's biggest dolphin."

"text": "What Do Blue Whales Eat? The answer to this question is actually quite simple. Despite being the largest living mammal in the world the blue whales primary diet consists almost exclusively of krill, a small oceanic creature that generally measure in at a measly 1-2 centimeters; although a few species of krill can grow close to 6 inches in size. In comparison to the small size of krill the blue whale can grow to be more than 100 ft. long (60 – 80 ft. on average) and weigh over 180 tons (100 – 150 tons on average)!Even though these marine mammals are larger than most whales their bodies are quite slim and streamlined for their size allowing them to reach for speeds of up to 25 miles per hour or more when threatened or startled; however the average traveling speed of these marine mammals remains closer to 5 mph. When it comes to eating food the blue whale can consume as many as 40 million krill per day, which ends up weighing close to 8,000 pounds of food on a daily basis!Note: Instead of krill the baby blue whale consumes milk during its first 6 – 18 months of birth and can drink as much as 150 gallons of milk per day during its first year. This feeding will continue until the young whale is able to hunt for food and survive on its own. When these marine mammals hunt for food the blue whale dives underneath the water and swims towards its prey using a technique known as filter feeding (a common hunting method used among baleen whales ) in which they swim towards large schools of krill with their mouth open and engulf both their prey along with the surrounding water. They then push the water out of their mouth with their tongue while keeping the krill trapped inside their baleen bristles, which researchers and marine biologists state resemble the teeth found on a comb."

Marine life is incredibly diverse and sometimes feels as old as time, and some of the oldest animals in existence live in the sea. The oceans are home to some of the largest and most powerful animals on Earth. They come from many different groups, too. Some are mammals, some are reptiles and some are fish. Some species have been seriously studied by scientists both in nature reserves and in their natural habitats, but other species remain elusive and even mysterious. The wonders of the sea have been immortalized in literature and Hollywood films, yet they are still rarely portrayed accurately. Films and novels often make these powerful creatures out to be enormous, bloodthirsty monsters when in reality, most of these species would probably rather that humans left them alone and respected their habitat. Here is a list of ten of the strongest animals in the our miraculous seas:10.

Rorquals have two characteristics in common: dorsal fins on their backs, and ventral pleats running from the tip of the lower jaw back to the belly area. The shape and color pattern on the humpback whale's dorsal fin and fluke (tail) are as individual in each animal as are fingerprints in humans. The discovery of this interesting fact changed the course of cetacean research forever, and the new form of research known as \"\"photo-identification,\"\" in which individuals are identified, catalogued, and monitored, has led to valuable information about such things as humpback whale population sizes, migration, sexual maturity, and behavior patterns. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTIONThe head of a humpback whale is broad and rounded when viewed from above, but slim in profile. The body is not as streamlined as other rorquals, but is quite round, narrowing to a slender peduncle (tail stock). The top of the head and lower jaw have rounded, bump-like knobs, each containing at least one stiff hair. The purpose of these hairs is not known, though they may provide the whale with a sense of \"\"touch.\"\" There are between 20-35 ventral grooves which extend slightly beyond the navel.

By using both photographs and whalers records, researchers have been able to gather accurate measurements in the lengths of whales but the weight is another matter.

On land an animal the size of a blue whale would be crushed by its own weight without the support of large heavy bones. Because its body is supported by water, as a sea animal, the need for heavy bones to support its weight disappeared. These, plus the availability of a large food supply, have made it possible for the blue whale to reach such an enormous size. The blue whale makes deep and rumbling sounds that can be felt as much as heard. These low-frequency sounds travel long distances through water, allowing blue whales to communicate with each other over hundreds of miles of ocean. What does it look like? The blue whale is the largest mammal, possibly the largest animal, to ever inhabit the earth. Its body is long, somewhat tapered, and streamlined, with the head making up less than one-fourth of its total body length. Its rostrum (upper part of the head) is very broad and flat and almost U-shaped, with a single ridge that extends just forward of the blowholes to the tip of the snout."

Wikimedia Commonsby Bob Strauss Updated October 13, 2017Not only was Megalodon the biggest prehistoric shark that ever lived; it was the largest marine predator in the history of the planet, vastly outweighing both the modern Great White Shark and ancient reptiles like Liopleurodon and Kronosaurus. Below you'll find 10 fascinating facts about Megalodon.01of 10Megalodon Grew Up to 60 Feet Long RICHARD BIZLEY/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY/Getty Images Since Megalodon is known by thousands of fossilized teeth but only a few scattered bones, its exact size has been a matter of contentious debate. Over the past century, paleontologists have come up with estimates (based mainly on tooth size and analogy with modern Great White Sharks) ranging from 40 to 100 feet from head to tail, but the consensus today is that adults were 55 to 60 feet long and weighed as much as 50 to 75 tons--and some superannuated individuals may have been even bigger. ( See 10 Things Megalodon Could Swallow Whole . ) 02of 10Megalodon Liked to Munch on Giant Whales Corey Ford/Stocktrek Images/Getty Images Megalodon had a diet befitting an apex predator, feasting on the prehistoric whales that swam the earth's oceans during the Pliocene and Miocene epochs, but also chowing down on dolphins, squids, fish, and even giant turtles (whose equally giant shells, as tough as they were, couldn't hold up against 10 tons of biting force; see the next slide). Megalodon may even have crossed paths with the giant prehistoric whale Leviathan; see Megalodon vs. Leviathan - Who Wins? for an analysis of this epic battle.03of 10Megalodon Had the Most Powerful Bite of Any Creature That Ever Lived Nobu Tamura/Wikimedia Commons/CC BY-SA 3.0In 2008, a joint research team from Australia and the U. S. used computer simulations to calculate Megalodon's biting power. The results can only be described as terrifying: whereas a modern Great White Shark clamps its jaws shut with about 1.8 tons of force per square inch (and an African lion with a wimpy 600 pounds or so), Megalodon chomped down on its prey with a force of between 10.8 and 18.2 tons—enough to crush the skull of a prehistoric whale as easily as a grape, and far outclassing the bite force generated by Tyrannosaurus Rex .04of 10Megalodon's Teeth Were Over Seven Inches Long Jeff Rotman/Getty Images Megalodon didn't earn its name (\"\"giant tooth\"\") for nothing. The teeth of this prehistoric shark were serrated, heart-shaped, and over half a foot long (by comparison, the largest teeth of a Great White Shark only measure about three inches long)."

"text": "Facts About BMX Bikingby OWEN H. L. DAVIES Sept. 11, 2017BMX, which stands for Bicycle Moto Cross, is a form of cycling that is considered to be an extreme sport. BMX bikes have a variety of uses and are tailored to the specific needs of the form of the sport that they are used for. BMX made its debut as an Olympic sport in the 2008 Games held in China. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load History According to bmx.bikebuy.co.uk, BMX originated in the late 1960s in Southern California. BMX was invented at the height of the popularity of motocross, a form of off-road motorcycling, as a result of youths seeking to imitate motocross styles of riding and racing but on pushbikes, which they modified and adapted to suit the dirt track conditions on which they raced. Development The adapted bikes that the first BMX racers used were typically based on transport bikes, particularly the Schwinn Sting-Ray. But these transport bikes were not well suited to racing, tending to be too large and structurally weak. As a result bicycle manufacturers began to make standardized BMX bikes to meet the specific needs of the BMX racer and to respond to the jumps and dirt conditions of the BMX race track. Typical Race According to hotsportslinks.com, the typical BMX race is fast, lasting 25 to 40 seconds. Races take place on a motocross modeled track of 900 to 1,100 feet in length with riders reaching speeds of 15 mph to 35 mph, according to the conditions of the individual track and the skill levels of the riders."

The competition often features new tricks such as Tony Hawk 's 900 in skateboarding, Travis Pastrana 's double backflip in freestyle motocross, Heath Frisby's first ever snowmobile front flip in Snowmobile Best Trick, and Torstein Horgmo 's first landed triple cork in a snowboard competition. Concurrent with competition is the \"\"X Fest\"\" sports and music festival, which offers live music, athlete autograph sessions, and interactive elements. The X Games gained media exposure due to their big name sponsors, top-tier athletes, and consistent fan attendance.

There are several different types of flip flop hubs available for different applications. Their main purpose is to allow changing between two different size gear ratios on one rear wheel without the added complications of a derailleur or internal hub gear, or between a fixed and freewheeling option. By removing the rear wheel and flipping it around, the rider can switch between the two options. They are traditionally found on track bicycles, but can also be found on other single speed bicycles.

"text": "\"Singer 401 Sewing Machine Review March 28, 201349 Comments Written by Lulus Atelier This is my Singer 401 machine. My very first vintage sewing machine I bought after I married. I have nothing but great things to say about it. This model is perfect if you are getting started with basic stitches and want to have the chance of some decorative stitches. Definitely, these stitches do not look the same type as modern decorative stitches compared to modern computerized machines, but, like I say, if you are not sure if you will ever use all of the features of a high end sewing machine, and you don’t want to limit your sewing, then this model is worth considering. Best features: Great Reliability: This machine was setup to go through almost any kind of fabric and thread without fiddling around with tensions. I am really amazed at how simple and yet very FAST this machine is. Low maintenance: This machine just loves to be cleaned and oiled after each project to continue running smoothly. As long as you continue to oil it and lubricate it, cover it to protect from heat, moisture, and dust, then you have an everlasting machine. Since I purchased this one (almost six years ago), I have not taken her for service, as I prefer to do this myself."

E. [4] The earliest clear illustrations of the spinning wheel come from Baghdad (drawn in 1234), [5] China ( c. 1270) and Europe ( c. 1280), and there is evidence that spinning wheels had already come into use in both China [a] and the Islamic world during the eleventh century. [ 6] In France the spindle and distaff were not displaced until the mid 18th century. [ 7]Scene from Al-Maqamat, painted by al-Wasiti 1237The Spinning Wheel replaced the earlier method of hand spinning with a spindle. The first stage in mechanizing the process was mounting the spindle horizontally so it could be rotated by a cord encircling a large, hand-driven wheel. The great wheel is an example of this type, where the fibre is held in the left hand and the wheel slowly turned with the right. Holding the fibre at a slight angle to the spindle produced the necessary twist. [ 8] The spun yarn was then wound onto the spindle by moving it so as to form a right angle with the spindle."

I’ve been sewing (and loving fabric of all types!) for as long as I can remember. I started quilting about 15 years ago when I volunteered to lead a school project for one of my children – and the project was making a quilt. I soon learned that there was a lot more to quilting than I realized. As soon as I finished my first quilt I was hooked, and I wanted to learn all I could about quiltmaking. First, I found quilting books and read as much as I could. Then I discovered Quilting Classes! I was lucky that both Harriet Hargrave and Diane Gaudynski were offering machine quilting workshops my area."

"text": "Example of sewing machine tension dial. Exotica.im Collection / Universal Images / Getty Images Sometimes quilters are hesitant to adjust sewing machine tension when stitches aren't quite right because they are unsure if the adjustments will create even more of an issue. But don't hesitate to make tension adjustments because they're often necessary. What is Sewing Machine Tension? Sewing machine tension adjustment is controlled by devices that separately control the needle thread and the bobbin thread, putting varying amounts of tension (or strength) on the threads they control in order to form a strong, balanced stitch. Sewing machine tension can be tightened or loosened to affect the needle thread, the bobbin thread, or both. Are Your Machine Stitches Balanced? Machine stitches should look the same on both sides of the seam when you sew patchwork pieces together or when you machine quilt through the quilt's top, batting, and backing. When stitches are balanced, they will be evenly spaced on both sides of the project, with threads that lie flat against their own side of the fabric. The little knot formed between stitches (at each indentation between them) should be invisible, buried in the layers."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search A working Mule spinning machine at Quarry Bank Mill The only surviving example of a spinning mule built by the inventor Samuel Crompton The spinning mule is a machine used to spin cotton and other fibres. They were used extensively from the late 18th to the early 20th century in the mills of Lancashire and elsewhere. Mules were worked in pairs by a minder, with the help of two boys: the little piecer and the big or side piecer. The carriage carried up to 1,320 spindles and could be 150 feet (46 m) long, and would move forward and back a distance of 5 feet (1.5 m) four times a minute. [ 1] It was invented between 1775 and 1779 by Samuel Crompton. The self-acting (automatic) mule was patented by Richard Roberts in 1825. At its peak there were 50,000,000 mule spindles in Lancashire alone. Modern versions are still in niche production and are used to spin woollen yarns from noble fibres such as cashmere, ultra-fine merino and alpaca for the knitware market. [ 2] [3]The spinning mule spins textile fibres into yarn by an intermittent process. [ 4] In the draw stroke, the roving is pulled through rollers and twisted; on the return it is wrapped onto the spindle."

Knowing that Aurifil 50 weight thread has become, the most popular and loved by most devoted quilters, for quilt piecing, we selected this thread for the test. The blog post “ Two Spools and a Pack of Bobbins ” encourages quilters to purchase two spools of Aurifil 50 weight cotton thread at a time and wind one full spool on to a full set of bobbins. But how many bobbins will each machine need? Some of you will need to purchase more than one pack of bobbins depending on how many empties you have on hand.

While Singer machines are easy to use, you will, sometime in your sewing career, encounter a tangled bobbin. A tangled bobbin can cause even the easiest project to come to a complete halt. There are many reasons a bobbin can turn into the dreaded \"\"bird's nest,\"\" but almost all bobbin troubles, while frustrating, are fairly quick and simple to fix. Things You'll Need Thread Scissors Turn off your sewing machine. Remove the needle plate, which is directly below the needle. Remove the bobbin and check that it is wound properly. A wound bobbin should have the thread smoothly wound around the inner tube of the bobbin with no lumps, knots or tangles. If your bobbin has any of these issues, remove the thread from the bobbin and rewind, according to manufacturer's instructions. Check the position of your bobbin in the bobbin case."

I cleared it all out and started again, thought the problem was the thin (same material) binding I was trying to sew close to the edge fraying. Happened 2 more times, so decided to do set-in sleeves, the shoulder seams sewed fine but still happened when I tried to sew sleeves in. I've adjusted tension up and down, when too low the fabric gets pulled into the feed dogs but when higher I still get at least one (the longer I sew the more threads) thread cut and wrapped around the bobbin case, big loops on the underside of the fabric.

I’ve gotten this particular question more than a few times so I’ve decided to dedicate an entire post to the topic of bobbins The Basics of a Bobbin Okay, so I’m assuming you are a newbie to the sewing world (welcome!). A bobbin is the plastic or metal wheel that fits underneath the needle plate of a sewing machine. It is threaded and the thread gets pulled up by the needle to form the bottom of the seam. This is a basic part of a sewing machine that enables the sewing machine to form a nice seam from two threads – one coming from the top from the needle and one coming up from the bottom from the bobbin.

Some Linux distributions may clear the screen when you logout but others do not. Many programs read input as a single line at a time.

Bash and other shells may use this history library. The default file is ~/.history or ~/.bash_history. Bash's history featurebash’s history function depends on a variable called HISTFILE, normally set to the current user’s .bash_history file (located in the user’s home directory).

"text": "Overview Bone marrow biopsy Bone marrow biopsy and bone marrow aspiration are procedures to collect and examine bone marrow — the spongy tissue inside some of your larger bones. Bone marrow biopsy and aspiration can show whether your bone marrow is healthy and making normal amounts of blood cells. Doctors use these procedures to diagnose and monitor blood and marrow diseases, including some cancers, as well as fevers of unknown origin. Bone marrow has a fluid portion and a more solid portion. In bone marrow biopsy, your doctor uses a needle to withdraw a sample of the solid portion. In bone marrow aspiration, a needle is used to withdraw a sample of the fluid portion. Bone marrow biopsy and bone marrow aspiration are often done at the same time. Together, these procedures may be called a bone marrow exam. Why it's done Bone marrow biopsy and bone marrow aspiration offer detailed information about the condition of your bone marrow and blood cells. Your doctor may order a bone marrow exam if blood tests are abnormal or don't provide enough information about a suspected problem."

"text": "Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy Approved by the Cancer. Net Editorial Board, 12/2016Bone marrow is the spongy, fatty tissue found inside larger bones. It produces the following types of blood cells: Red blood cells, which carry oxygen to all parts of the body White blood cells, which help the body fight infection and disease Platelets, which help blood clot and control bleeding Sometimes doctors need to examine the development and function of these cells. To do this, they may recommend having a bone marrow aspiration and/or a bone marrow biopsy to collect a sample of bone marrow. The results of a bone marrow aspiration and/or biopsy help doctors diagnose the following conditions: Blood cancers, including leukemia, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma A fever with an unknown cause Stem cell disorders Rare genetic diseases Doctors also use these procedures to describe a blood cancer, identify its subtype, and classify or stage the cancer. These procedures are also used to determine whether treatment is working and to monitor the side effects of chemotherapy. What is a bone marrow aspiration and biopsy? A bone marrow aspiration is a procedure that removes a sample of the liquid portion of bone marrow. A bone marrow biopsy removes a small, solid piece of bone marrow. In both procedures, doctors often take bone marrow from the pelvic bone, which is located in the lower back by the hip."

"text": "\"anemia Anemia is a condition in which a person's blood has a lower than normal number of red blood cells (RBCs), or the RBCs don't have enough hemoglobin. Hemoglobin – an iron-rich protein that gives the red color to blood – carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. In people with anemia, the blood does not carry enough oxygen to the rest of the body. As a result, people with anemia feel tired, along with other symptoms, because their bodies are not receiving enough oxygen. In severe or prolonged cases of anemia, the lack of oxygen in the blood can cause serious and sometimes fatal damage to the heart and other organs of the body. RBCs also are called erythrocytes. RBCs are disk-shaped and look like doughnuts without a hole in the center. They are produced continually in the spongy marrow inside the large bones of the body and normally last 120 days. RBCs' main role is to carry oxygen, but they also remove carbon dioxide (a waste product) from cells and carry it to the lungs to be exhaled. White blood cells and platelets are the two other kinds of blood cells."

Immature blood cells develop into red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets in the bone marrow. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy are usually done together. A bone marrow aspiration removes a small amount of fluid and cells from the bone marrow. A bone marrow biopsy removes a small amount of bone along with fluid and cells from the bone marrow. The fluid, cells or bone removed during these procedures is examined under a microscope. Why bone marrow aspiration and biopsy are done These procedures are done to:see if the bone marrow is making the normal number of blood cellsfind out why blood counts are abnormaldiagnose blood disorders or conditions that affect the bone marrowfind infection that started in or has spread to the bone marrowdiagnose blood or bone marrow cancers, such as leukemia or multiple myelomafind out if cancer from somewhere else in the body has spread to the bone marrowcheck response to treatment for a bone marrow condition or cancercollect a sample of bone marrow for medical procedures, such as stem cell transplant How bone marrow aspiration and biopsy are done These procedures are done in a clinic or hospital and usually take 20–30 minutes. Most people can go home after they are done. Very rarely, people will need to stay in the hospital. Where doctors or nurse practitioners do a bone marrow aspiration and biopsy depends on your age."

If a person has signs or symptoms that suggest Hodgkin lymphoma, exams and tests will be done to find out for sure and, if so, to determine the exact type. Medical history and physical exam Your doctor will want to get a thorough medical history, including information about symptoms, possible risk factors, family history, and other medical conditions. Next, the doctor will examine you, paying special attention to the lymph nodes and other areas of the body that might be affected, including the spleen and liver. Because infections are the most common cause of enlarged lymph nodes, especially in children, the doctor will look for an infection in the part of the body near any swollen lymph nodes. The doctor also might order blood tests to look for signs of infection or other problems. If the doctor suspects that Hodgkin lymphoma might be causing the symptoms, he or she might recommend a biopsy of a swollen lymph node. Biopsies Because swollen lymph nodes are more likely to be caused by something other than Hodgkin lymphoma, such as an infection, doctors often wait a few weeks to see if they shrink on their own as the infection goes away. Antibiotics may also be prescribed to see if they cause the nodes to shrink. If the nodes don’t shrink or if they continue to grow, a lymph node (or a small piece of a node) is removed to be looked at under a microscope and for other lab tests."

Cancer is a process of uncontrolled abnormal cell growth and development. Under normal circumstances, cells are formed, mature, carry out their intended function, and then die. New cells are constantly regenerated in the body to replace those cells and to maintain normal cellular function. Cancer represents the disturbance of this process, which can occur in several ways.

"text": "Overview In some cases, your doctor may decide that he or she needs a sample of your tissue or your cells to help diagnose an illness or identify a cancer. The removal of tissue or cells for analysis is called a biopsy. While a biopsy may sound scary, it’s important to remember that most are entirely pain-free and low-risk procedures. Depending on your situation, a piece of skin, tissue, organ, or suspected tumor will be surgically removed and sent to a lab for testing. Purpose Why a biopsy is done If you have been experiencing symptoms normally associated with cancer, and your doctor has located an area of concern, he or she may order a biopsy to help determine if that area is cancerous. A biopsy is the only sure way to diagnosis most cancers. Imaging tests like CT scans and X-rays can help identify areas of concerns, but they can’t differentiate between cancerous and noncancerous cells. Biopsies are typically associated with cancer, but just because your doctor orders a biopsy, it doesn’t mean that you have cancer. Doctors use biopsies to test whether abnormalities in your body are caused by cancer or by other conditions. For example, if a woman has a lump in her breast, an imaging test would confirm the lump, but a biopsy is the only way to determine whether it’s breast cancer or another noncancerous condition, such as polycystic fibrosis."

Bone marrow biopsy and aspiration can show whether your bone marrow is healthy and making normal amounts of blood cells. Doctors use these procedures to diagnose and monitor blood and marrow diseases, including some cancers, as well as fevers of unknown origin. Bone marrow has a fluid portion and a more solid portion. In bone marrow biopsy, your doctor uses a needle to withdraw a sample of the solid portion. In bone marrow aspiration, a needle is used to withdraw a sample of the fluid portion. Bone marrow biopsy and bone marrow aspiration are often done at the same time. Together, these procedures may be called a bone marrow exam. Why it's done Bone marrow biopsy and bone marrow aspiration offer detailed information about the condition of your bone marrow and blood cells.

Bone marrow contains immature cells, called stem cells. Many people with blood cancers, such as leukemia and lymphoma, sickle cell anemia, and other life-threatening diseases, rely on bone marrow or cord blood transplants to survive. Healthy bone marrow and blood cells are needed in order to live. When disease affects bone marrow so that it can no longer function effectively, a marrow or cord blood transplant could be the best treatment option; for some patients it is the only potential cure.

There are 6 types of chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms. Tests that examine the blood and bone marrow are used to detect (find) and diagnose chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms. Myeloproliferative neoplasms are a group of diseases in which the bone marrow makes too many red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets. Normally, the bone marrow makes blood stem cells (immature cells) that become mature blood cells over time. Enlarge Anatomy of the bone. The bone is made up of compact bone, spongy bone, and bone marrow. Compact bone makes up the outer layer of the bone. Spongy bone is found mostly at the ends of bones and contains red marrow. Bone marrow is found in the center of most bones and has many blood vessels."

"text": "Introduction to Myeloma FAQ 1 What Is Myeloma So the first question that we get asked by patients is what is this and what is this disease going to do to me? Multiple myeloma is a disease in your bone marrow. Inside your bone marrow are the cells that make your blood, your red cells, your white cells, and your platelets. In addition, the bone marrow also is right next to your bone and plays a key role in maintaining the strength of the bone. Since this is a cancer in the bone marrow, the most common problems with myeloma patients get into is when they have crowding out of their normal bone marrow cells with these cancer cells, the green grass, if you will, doesn’t grow and patients are: 1) unable to make red cells and they become anemic, 2) they may not make white cells so that these blood counts drop making them more susceptible to infection, and 3) they may drop their platelet count, and, therefore, are more susceptible to bleeding. In fact, most commonly it’s anemia that occurs which can make the patient have fatigue and short of breath. In addition, because again the bone marrow is right next to the bone, the myeloma cells do not allow the bones to function normally. The bones resorb- in other words, they lose bone. When this happens, they break down and weaken so that patients experience bone pain and they often have fractures especially of the spine, hip bones and ribs. Now it turns out that these myeloma cancer cells are derived from a type of normal white cell called a plasma cell."

Weiss : Contact: Disabled World Synopsis: Article provides information regarding red and white blood cell count used to identify diseases and to monitor human health problems. Blood Cell Count The cells that circulate in the bloodstream are generally divided into three types: white blood cells (leukocytes), red blood cells (erythrocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes). A complete blood count (CBC), also known as full blood count (FBC) or full blood exam (FBE) or blood panel, is a test panel requested by a doctor or other medical professional that gives information about the cells in a patient's blood. A scientist or lab technician performs the requested testing and provides the requesting medical professional with the results of the CBC. Abnormally high or low counts may indicate the presence of many forms of disease, and hence blood counts are amongst the most commonly performed blood tests in medicine, as they can provide an overview of a patient's general health status. Main Document\"\"White blood cells contain the immune cells that attack and remove viruses and bacteria in a person's body. \"\" Blood counts may be used to identify diseases and to monitor a person's health. Though the various tests related to blood counts cannot diagnose lymphoma on their own, they can alert a doctor to an issue in a person's body and prompt a doctor to perform appropriate tests. Since the majority of chemotherapy regimens, for example, result in low blood counts in a person, the tests become very important in monitoring a person's health after a diagnosis has been achieved. Blood tests are used to both measure and inspect a person's red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets."

After referral to a kidney specialist, tests showed my kidneys are functioning as they are supposed to, but testing showed that the prominent protein is complexed Ig G Kappa heavy chain. After nearly three weeks of waiting, my initial visit to a hematologist is finally coming up. There's certainly dread at what I might find out, but also a desire to get answers as soon as possible. What can I expect at this first visit? Do they typically do a bone marrow biopsy as part of this initial visit, or is it scheduled out days or weeks? How quickly do the results come back from a biopsy? I'm not sure I can handle having to wait multiple more weeks to find out what's going on.

It safely uses a very small amount of a radioactive drug called a radiopharmaceutical. It has also been referred to as a “dye” but it does not stain the tissue. Specifically, a bone scan is done to reveal problems with bone metabolism. Bone metabolism refers to the process in which bones break down and rebuild themselves. New bone formation is part of the healing process when bones are injured or broken. A bone scan is a good way to view and document abnormal metabolic activity in the bones. A bone scan can also be used to determine whether cancer has spread to the bones from another area of the body, such as the prostate or breast. During a bone scan, a radioactive dye is injected into your bones."

Femoroacetabular impingement or FAI is a condition of too much friction in the hip joint. Basically, the ball (femoral head) and socket (acetabulum) rub abnormally creating damage to the hip joint. The damage can occur to the articular cartilage (smooth white surface of the ball or socket) or the labral cartilage (soft tissue bumper of the socket). FAI generally occurs as two forms: Cam and Pincer. The Cam form (Cam comes from the Dutch word meaning “cog”) describes the femoral head and neck relationship as aspherical or not perfectly round. This loss of roundness contributes to abnormal contact between the head and socket. The Pincer form (Pincer comes from the French word meaning “to pinch”) describes the situation where the socket or acetabulum has too much coverage of the ball or femoral head. This over-coverage typically exists along the front-top rim of the socket (acetabulum) and results in the labral cartilage being “pinched” between the rim of the socket and the anterior femoral head-neck junction. The Pincer form of the impingement is typically secondary to “retroversion”, a turning back of the socket, “profunda”, a socket that is too deep, or \"\"protrusio\"\", a situation where the femoral head extends into the pelvis."

The bone has been damaged such that it is no longer intact. None of these terms indicate the severity of the bone damage. Bones are the body's storage place for calcium. Under hormone control, calcium content of bone is constantly increasing or decreasing. Bones break when they cannot withstand a force or trauma applied to them. Sometimes the bones are so weak that they cannot withstand the force of gravity, such as compression fractures of the back in the elderly. Fracture descriptions help explain how the breakage appears.

"text": "\"Magnetic Resonance Imaging Medical Imaging Medicine and Healthcare What are some features that help distinguish a picture of a CT scan from a picture of an MRI scan?16 Answers Timo Van de Schoor, Radiographer Updated Aug 16, 2017CT scans differ quite a lot from MRI scans. CT (Computed Tomography)The CT's main principal is based on X-rays passing through a body, being weakened by tissue. The weakening (or attenuation) differs per tissue, as dense tissues absorb more X-rays than less dense tissues. Also CT uses a specific measure to quantify the density of tissues, expressed in ''Hounsfield's units'' (HUs). Tissues with more HUs are denser than tissues with less HUs. CT scans are often used when a physician needs a quick diagnosis. In general CT's are used for bone related abnormalities and are great for imaging the circulatory system (using iodine contrasts). This is a CT image, notice that the fluid is black, this is due to the fact that X-rays pass easily through water. MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)An MRI excites H protons in the tissue using Radio pulses. When the H protons are excited they gradually lose their energy (relaxation), this emits a weaker Radio pulse wich can be measured and quantified."

The condition is present in up to 6% of the population, majority of which usually present asymptomatically.

The disorder is generally more prevalent in males compared to females, and tends to occur earlier in males due to their involvement in more strenuous activities at a younger age. [ 7] In a young athlete, the spine is still growing which means there are many ossification centers, leaving points of weakness in the spine. This leaves young athletes at increased risk, particularly when involved in repetitive hyperextension and rotation across the lumbar spine. ["

"title": "http://www.bonsaitreegardener.net/intro/symbolism\nBonsai Symbolism",
"text": "In the English language, the term bonsai is often used loosely to reference all miniature-scale trees. But bonsai refers specifically to a Japanese art form, ascended from the Chinese art of penjing, more than a thousand years ago. Bonsai, like other forms of art, uses the medium of symbolism to communicate ideas and emotions. An understanding of Japanese aesthetics contributes to an appreciation of bonsai’s rich symbology. Bonsai utilizes horticultural techniques along with artistic applications to cultivate miniature replicas of trees as they’re found in nature. The tradition has been refined over the last millennium to reflect the aesthetic qualities found in nature through balance, simplicity and harmony. The aesthetic element of age is also predominantly symbolized in bonsai, utilizing various techniques applied to the design and cultivation of each creation by the artist. Symbolism is also employed to describe the relationship between the stylized bonsai and trees found in nature. Balance Balance plays an essential role in bonsai aesthetics. The triangle, used in overall design, traditionally symbolizes strength and stability."

"text": "\"Home & Garden Garden & Landscape How long does a jack pine bonsai tree take to sprout from seeds?i planted them in a peat pellet about a month or two ago and im afraid its dead cause it still hasn't sprouted. Follow 3 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Jack pine seeds in nature often go through fire before they germinate. \"\" Seeds usually germinate rapidly after release when the 10-day mean maximum air temperature is 65 degrees Fahrenheit or higher. Seeds occasionally exhibit partial dormancy which is probably broken naturally by heat from fire. Seeds remain viable in closed cones for years, but viability decreases over time. Up to 50% of 20-year-old seeds may be viable.\"\" \"\" Exposed mineral soil or thin residual humus of about 1/4\"\" or less provide the best seedbeds; deeper humus has an adverse effect on establishment; humus deeper than 1 1/2\"\" is a low-quality seedbed. Successful germination and establishment usually occurs only after fire removes humus.\"\" \"\" Germination and initial survival sometimes improve with partial shade, but the positive effect of shade eventually becomes negative because seedlings soon require higher light levels. Seedling survival may be low if drought conditions follow germination.\"\""

"text": "Grow Full Size Fruits In a Fraction Of The Area With Bonsai Trees Oct 1, 2015 6Bon sai is an art that has been practiced in Asia for many centuries. It isn’t genetically altered to make it smaller. Bonsai trees are grown from the same seeds as trees that grow to full size. They are grown in small containers and trimmed and trained so that they remain small and elegant. In this ancient technique, you typically grow the tree outdoors where it can experience the same growing conditions as a regular tree of the same species bearing full sized fruits in a fraction of the area. The largest difference between indoor fruit and traditional bonsai is, of course, the enjoyment of an attractive, fully leaved plant in winter instead of a dormant, leafless tree. Other differences include the faster growth rate of tropical plants, which accelerate all steps of the bonsai evolution. The type of tree you grow should be reliant on the environment where you’ll be keeping it. Your region’s climate and your home environment should both be taken into account when you’re deciding which species of tree to grow. To be on the safe side, select a species that is indigenous to your part of the world."

Although it takes a long time (at least three years) before you have a tree you can start working on, this is the only way to grow a Bonsai right from the start!First of all, seeds need to be obtained; you can collect these from trees in your surroundings or you can choose to buy them in an (online) shop. Keep in mind that there is no such thing as special “Bonsai tree seeds” as Bonsai are created from normal trees. If you collect seeds from trees growing in your local area planting the seeds in autumn will do just fine, however, if you want to plant seeds out of the season (during springtime for example) or if you like to grow seedlings from trees not growing in your local climate, a process called \"\"stratification\"\" can be necessary. Stratification is the process of pretreating seeds to simulate natural winter conditions that a seed must endure before germination. For beginners this might be a bit complicated, so it is advisable to select a tree species that is suitable for your climate and simply plant it in the autumn, just like Mother Nature does!Growing trees from 'Bonsai tree seeds' short movie Bonsai seeds Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available.

There is differing information about the number of existing ficus species, there may be between 800 and 2000. They live on all continents in the tropical regions and are very suitable for being kept as indoor Bonsai. There are hundreds of varieties of the Ficus, but the most popular one for Bonsai is the Ficus Retusa, which is often shaped in an s-curved trunk and has oval, dark green leaves. The Microcarpa, Tigerbark, Willow leaf, Golden Gate and Taiwan varieties are quite similar to the Retusa. The Ficus Ginseng is another popular tree. It has a thick, pot-bellied trunk, similar to the Ginseng root. Sometimes it is grafted with Ficus microcarpa leaves (combining it to a ficus microcarpa ginseng). Some figs can become very large trees with a crown circumference of more than 300 m (1000 ft). Typical for all fig Bonsai species is their milky latex sap, which will leak from wounds or cuts."

The best beautiful Adenium in term of caudex forms is Adenium “Arabicum” but its flowers are just native pink color. As we know, most colorful flowers come from Adenium “Obesum” hybrid but its body is not beautiful enough comparing to Adenium Arabicum. That’s why we would like to create new Adenium with both perfect body forms and beautiful flower colors on the same plant. Most growers don’t like to graft obesum flowers on Arabicum root stock because it’s pretty hard to do. The reason is that the scions or obesum branches will try to jump out of root stock arabicum branch after finish grafting. Another reason is that branch surface from root stock is harder than scions soft skin from obesum. Now we’ve discovered and found the new grafting technique to help making both different hybrid branches get grafting better, much smoother and it was success. We also found that obesum flowers can give higher blooming, perfect flower forms and bigger flower size after grafting them on these Arabicum root stocks. I think the reason is that Arabicum can give better and higher food feed to flowers than obesum itself because caudex is stronger and bigger branches."

Being defined as - \"\" The art of growing dwarfed, ornamentally shaped trees or shrubs in small shallow pots or trays \"\". The tradition originated in Japan before spreading to many parts of the world, however Indoor Bonsais are a much newer concept and it's believed to have started in Germany before spreading outwards to many different countries. This means because there are both Outdoor Bonsai and Indoor Bonsai the care and treatment of the plants is quite different. Outdoor Bonsai are, as the name suggests, plants which belong outside. They are the plants we have growing in our gardens and yards, sometimes 100 times as big as the one in the Bonsai tray. You can bring them inside for a few days at a time, perhaps as a center piece for a party, but afterwards they must be returned to the garden otherwise within a few weeks they will have weakened and will gradually die. Indoor Bonsai are \"\"normal\"\" houseplants which have been grown in the Bonsai style - that is they have been miniaturised. Common plants selected for this are Crassula ovata (Jade Plant), Punica granatum (Pomegranate), Ficus benjamin (Weeping Fig) and Sageretia theezans (Fukien Tea). Careful pruning, training and keeping the plants in a small tray restricts their growth but still allows you to shape and control their appearance."

The boxwood is an important plant commercially, as it is one of the few woods that are heavier than water, and because of this, it is used for making woodcuts and precision instruments. Most boxwood plants are grown as hardy bonsai, and are very popular for use in this calming art due to its tiny leaves and flowers as well as its tolerance for extensive pruning and shaping. It is a hearty slow growing plant that is perfect for any bonsai lover, tolerating neglect and inexperience without detriment to its attractive habit. Trees Features: This boxwood is unique among boxwoods for its scentless evergreen leaves that are less than 1 inch long. Kingsville Dwarf Boxwood is the most sought after member of the \"\"Buxus\"\" family. It features dark green, tiny leathery leaves, dense growth habits and rough bark which are all the features that make it a good bonsai subject.

"text": "\"Mark Grace, Passionate gardener thanks to an incredible great-grandfather Updated May 1, 2016 · Author has 1.4k answers and 2.1m answer views One of the key goals in bonsai is to create the impression of a very old tree specimen. Trees grown from seed, cuttings, young nursery stock and bonsai 'starter material' can take many years, generations even, to achieve this effect. After all, the tree has to get old to look old. But there is a shortcut. By far the quickest way to create a aged specimen tree is to collect something that already has many years of growth from the wild - known as Yamadori in Japanese, meaning 'tree collected from nature'. Clearly you're looking for a tree of a suitable species which has been stunted by natural means - it may have had access to limited water and nutrients, subjected to harsh weather conditions, grazed on by animals, or routinely pruned as a hedge for example. A tree that's been allowed to grow freely for many years will be too well developed to style as a bonsai. Some of these stunting processes may have contributed towards a desirable gnarly effect, twisted trunk / rugged flaky bark, suggesting even greater age and this can add remarkable character if it can be harnessed and shown off in a bonsai. Of course removing the tree can be troublesome requiring significant effort, especially to avoid damaging the roots and potentially killing the tree in the process. You should always consult the land owner too before embarking upon such a trip as you could risk breaking the law otherwise, or damaging a fragile or protected ecosystem."

Although trunk and bark formation will take quite a few years, Podocarpus growth varies with climate - slow-growing indoors and towards the cooler end of their range, fast-growing in sunny areas. In the wild, it can grow up to 40 ft tall. Tree Features: Podocarpus is a dense evergreen with pointed, leathery, dark green leaves arranged on stiff, symmetrical branches. The tree, which is self pollinating, has male flowers in cones and female flowers composed of cylindrical thickened scales. The fruits are fleshy and brightly colored. New needles start in a light green color that turns darker with age. Temperature: Will survive light frost, but for best results, keep above 55F. Podocarpus can be grown successfully indoors in a well-lit spot. Prefers winter temperatures between 61-68F. Like most conifers, it has a tendency to dry out without proper humidity, and will prefer being kept away from dry heat. ."

"text": "\"4.9 out of 5.0 stars on Amazon\"\"Upon finding that I work as a professional bonsai artist, many people will remark that they once had a bonsai, but it died and with some regret, they gave up\"\". Based on the Bonsai Basics section of the hugely successful Bonsai4me.com website and an e-book of the same name, 'Bonsai Basics: The Foundations of Bonsai', written and developed over the past 15 years is out now!All copies are signed by the author. Order your copy here!Page 1 of 2Seed can be very easily obtained from many species of tree that can be found growing in fields, gardens and by the roadside. Many species of tree such as Oaks, Maples and Beech have instantly recognizable seedpods that once opened reveal large quantities of seed that can be used to create large numbers of new plants. There are also many retail outlets that sell 'bonsai seed'. It should be noted that there is no such thing as 'special seed for bonsai', bonsai are created from ordinary trees not 'special bonsai varieties'. Packets of 'bonsai seed' are generally very overpriced and can be misleading, they simply contain seeds from trees that are suitable for use as bonsai. Some species of trees are relatively easy to grow from seed, Maple species, Black Pine, Scots Pine, Zelkovas, Beech and Larch are all species that are easy to germinate from seed. Others such as White Pine, Hornbeam and Needle Junipers can be more difficult. Though seed is very cheap and easy to obtain, it does have some drawbacks when propagating plants."

"text": "\"Bald Cypress (Taxodium Distichum)The Bald Cypress, despite it's very slow growth, is a very popular bonsai tree, grown for its light, feathery foliage and orange-brown fall color. It can be cultivated in a wide range of soils including well-drained sites where it would not grow naturally due to the inability of the young seedlings to compete with other vegetation. Cultivation is successful in both northern and continental climates. It is also commonly planted in Europe, Asia and elsewhere with temperate to subtropical climates. It does require continental climates with hot summers for good growth; when planted in areas with cooler summers, growth is healthy but much slower. Excellent for the bonsai beginner, the Bald Cypress tree is an excellent choice for someone who is just getting started in the hobby, as it is so easy to grow. OKINAWA HOLLY (Malphigia coccigera)The Okinawa Holly is a wonderful, miniature version of the Holly that produces tiny pink flowers during the spring and summer months. Native to the Northern Hemisphere, the leaves on the Okinawa Holly are small and glossy with serrated edges. Because of its size, hardiness, and unique appearance, this tree is a wonderful choice for bonsai. Beginners will love the easy care and charming look."

A beverage group with a Body Shop-style culture is now contemplating a stockmarket listing. Stephen Dabkowski reports. Janine Allis has turned a taste for smoothies and search for a health food retail concept into one of the surprise retail success stories of recent years. Less than four years after journeying to the United States in search of inspiration, her Boost Juice Bars chain now opens a new store somewhere in Australia every four days. The company plans to double its number of outlets to 120 over the next year as well as move into food retailing. There are plans to list on the stock exchange and expand the brand into Asia. The 37-year-old founder and managing director - a former marketing executive with Village Roadshow - researched what would succeed in the health-food sector. On a trip to the US in September 1999, she came across a Smoothy Juice Bar and liked the concept. \"\" I knew about the importance of brand development and that's been crucial to the future of Boost Juice,\"\" she said."

"text": "You can trust that we maintain strict editorial integrity in our writing and assessments; however, we receive compensation when you click on links to products from our partners and get approved. Here's how we make money. Opening your own franchise gives you the entrepreneur experience — but you have an edge. When you open a franchise storefront, the parent company, or franchisor, sells you the right to its business name, product and brand. The franchisee agreement lasts for a certain length of time, up to two decades, but you can usually renew. What do you get out of this arrangement? You’re starting a company with an established brand and proven business model. The downsides: You give up control of business decisions to the franchisor, including site approval, design standards and product variation. You also have to foot the startup costs, so finding good financing is crucial. Below, we outline the costs of funding a franchise and some good sources of financing, depending on your personal credit, whether you’re just starting out or funding growth, and other factors."

"text": "\"Small Business Resources > Advantages & Disadvantages of Owning a Franchise Advantages & Disadvantages of Owning a Franchise When considering life as an entrepreneur, it is important to understand the definitions of a franchise, business opportunity and a start-up business. There are, of course, advantages and disadvantages to each style of business. In this article we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of owning a franchise. FRANCHISE: A franchise is a right granted to an individual or group to market a company's goods or services within a certain territory or location. The franchisor (the company owner) sells the rights to the franchisee and then typically receives a fee for ongoing support, therefore having a vested interest in the success of each franchise. Franchising began back in the 1850's when Isaac Singer invented the sewing machine. In order to distribute his machines outside of his geographical area, and also provide training to customers on the use of the machines, Singer began selling licenses to entrepreneurs in different parts of the country. Today many such franchise opportunities are advertised via the Web and other media. Examples of franchises include Carvel, Tutoring Club and Liberty Tax Service. Advantages: There is a higher likelihood of success since a proven business formula is in place."

"text": "\"The success of Mc Donald's is the business equivalent of the American Dream. While Mc Donald's was not the first franchise business, it has possibly become the premier example of the business model. With roots that trace back to a single drive-in started by a pair of brothers, Dick and Mac Mc Donald, in Southern California, Mc Donald's has grown to a network of well over 35,000 locations in more than 100 countries. So how did the chain grow from a single restaurant into the expansive corporation it is today? It's not a question that can be answered concisely because Mc Donald's is first-class in every segment of its operation. With that in mind, this article focuses upon three of the characteristics which stand out when speaking about the success of Mc Donald's: consistency, innovation and resiliency. Consistency It doesn't matter if you're visiting a Mc Donald's in California or Connecticut, America or Australia – you're going to have a similar experience wherever you are. This highlights Ray Kroc's vision for Mc Donald's from the beginning. Kroc was a salesman from Illinois who ventured to San Bernardino, California in 1954 when he received a larger than normal order for the milkshake multi-mixers he was selling. When he arrived in Southern California, he was intrigued with what he witnessed – a restaurant that was efficiently serving a large number of customers who seemed pleased with the food they were receiving."

A: Quick Answer While many doctors debunk ideas such as drinking warm water and lemon juice in the morning boosts the immune system, they do recognize that lemon juice has benefits such as improving digestion, boosting mineral absorption and detoxifying the body. These doctors also do not cite any conclusive evidence to support beliefs such as lemon juice gets rid of acne, whitens teeth or gets rid of dark spots and blemishes.

Credit: Peter Dazeley Photographer's Choice RF Getty Images Full Answer Nutritional consultant Dr. Mike Roussell says that lemon juice does have the benefits of increasing mineral absorption, detoxifying and aiding digestion. The mineral absorption benefits come from the vitamin C in lemons. Lemon also contains an antioxidant called d-limonene, which gives the fruit its detoxification properties.

Sometimes a game comes into a series and does things a little bit differently. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare aims to change the formula for the better with a new setting and futuristic tech, and it succeeds with several game-changing features. Call of Duty has long stood on three legs: single player, multiplayer, and co-op. The competitive offering is full of surprises with gameplay mechanics that will make you rethink your online tactics and a progression system that will keep you in for the long run. But where the competitive aspect of the game soars with new ideas, the narrative and co-op features stand perfectly stagnant. The campaign kicks off with a bang, highlighting the new, cutting edge weaponry and equipment at your disposal, and doing an excellent job of immersing you into the futuristic world of Advanced Warfare. The first mission has you entering battle from an orbital drop pod, blasting away drone swarms, and using your exo suit to perform feats that no other Call of Duty hero could do before, like deploy grappling hooks, hover over pits, and ground smash enemies to death. And that level of intense action is maintained throughout the 6 hour campaign, as we've come to expect from Co D. There are massive explosions and dramatic deaths aplenty, but you just don't care enough about the characters or what's going on for those moments to make a significant impact. The story starts off strong, but by the end it runs out of gas."
