"text": "<< Amethyst Gemstone Bead | Can moonstone be faceted? >>What does AAA Quality Gemstone mean?30. December 2013 00:06 / Manoj / Comments (0)The life of a common woman revolves around fancy, colourful clothes, cosmetics and expensive jewellery. Women have a very rich taste for jewellery and have an eye for gemstones that are elegant and exude a rich look. Alexandrites, diamonds, aquamarines, opals, pearl, ruby, sapphires, spinels, topaz are a few of the globally acclaimed gemstones that are making women crazy all over the world. But the question that arises in the mind of every woman shopping for gemstones is ‘how to choose the best quality gemstones?’Like all commodities even gemstones are graded. The quality and cost of a gemstone completely depend on its cut. Grading the quality of gemstones: Alpha grading is a commonly heard term in conjunction to grading of gemstones. This grading is based on several qualities such as colour, cut and clarity. However the grading is not limited only to these qualities and other factors such as value for money, popularity and even feedback from customers are taken into account while grading gemstones."

However, in reality almost no gem-sized natural diamonds are absolutely perfect. The color of a diamond may be affected by chemical impurities and/or structural defects in the crystal lattice. Depending on the hue and intensity of a diamond's coloration, a diamond's color can either detract from or enhance its value. For example, most white diamonds are discounted in price when more yellow hue is detectable, while intense pink diamonds or blue diamonds (such as the Hope Diamond) can be dramatically more valuable. Of all colored diamonds, red diamonds are the rarest. The Aurora Pyramid of Hope displays a spectacular array of naturally colored diamonds, including red diamonds.

The Asian cultures have revered this gem as a symbol of protection and sought this gem for centuries. Confucius (551-479 BC) believed jade had 11 virtues, including benevolence, fidelity, polite etiquette and sincerity. To Taoists jade was edible and could keep one physically immortal.

Emerlds are a relatively soft gemstone compaired to the other precious gemstones Rubys, Sapphires and Diamonds. Emerlds have a hardness of 7 1/2 to 8 on the Mohs hardness scale and sometimes can be brittle, making them difficult to work with when used in jewelry making. THE COLOMBIAN MINESColombia produces 60 % of the worlds emerald supply. There are four main emerald mining areas, La Pita, Cosquez, Chivor and the famous Muzo mine area. Each mine produces some fine quality emeralds, but the Muzo mine produces what is regarded as the best emeralds in the world because they are the darkest in color. The vast majority of the commercially available emerlds come from Cosquez and La Pita. These two mining areas produce a very nice medium green color emerald with great luster. The Chivor mine production is low compared to the other Colombian mines, but the emeralds produced there can be very fine quality."

The simple answer is that some buyers of gemstones on the internet do get ripped off, or at the very least, get less than they paid for. But at the same time, experienced buyers routinely find excellent buys – perhaps not the fantastic bargains that some claim, but choice and value that far exceed what they can find in retail outlets where they live. So what do you need to know to buy gemstone online? Do you need to be a gemologist in order to tell the fake stones from the real?

"text": "Arts, Music, and Recreation ›Cars & Motorcycles Uniform Tire Quality Grading Explained Share Flipboard Email Printby Sean Phillips Updated May 12, 2017Uniform Tire Quality Grading is the term for three specific ratings applied to tires so that consumers can have standardized, easy to understand comparative data when they are searching for the right tire. That's the concept; the reality is somewhat different. Actually, UTQG ratings are difficult for most people to understand, extremely opaque in their relationship to actual tire performance, and in some ways are barely standardized at all. Traction Traction grades are based on tests to determine the tire's coefficient of friction on wet asphalt and wet concrete at 40 mph. The tire is given a letter grade depending on the amount of G's the tire can withstand on each surface. The grades are: AA - Above 0.54G on asphalt and above 0.41G on concrete. A - Above 0.47G on asphalt and above 0.35G on concrete. B - Above 0.38G on asphalt and above 0.26G on concrete. C - Less Than 0.38G on asphalt and 0.26G on concrete. The problem here is twofold."

"text": "\"Sapphire Gemstone Information About Sapphire - History and Introduction Sapphire is a gem quality variety of the mineral corundum. It is the second hardest substance on earth after diamond, rating 9 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness. Corundum itself is not a very rare mineral, but gem quality corundum is extremely rare. Most corundum is opaque to translucent and heavily included, suitable only for industrial use, including the production of abrasives used for sandpaper and machining of metal, plastics and wood. The name corundum comes from the Sanskrit word kuruvindam, meaning \"\"ruby sapphire\"\", while the name sapphire comes from the Persian word safir, derived from the Greek word for blue. In times of antiquity and the Middle Ages, the term sapphire actually referred to lapis lazuli, but in the early 19th century, the description and definition of sapphire was changed to the corundum variety we know today. While blue is the most traditional and classic color for sapphire, sapphire is actually found in a variety of different colors. Most natural sapphire is quite pale and light in color. Only a small percentage of natural sapphire exhibits vivid and intense colors without some type of treatment or enhancement, the most common being heat-treatment. For many years, only blue sapphire was recognized as 'true' sapphire."

The grade is decided by checking both the outside and the inside of the egg. On the outside, the checker looks to see if the shell is clean and unbroken and has a normal shape and texture - without bumps, ridges, thin spots or rough areas. The shell color doesn't matter. On the inside, the checker looks to see if the white is firm, thick and clear. The checker also looks to see if the yolk is the right size and shape and has no blemishes. Through the shell, the checker can see the size of the air cell, too. The smaller the air cell, the higher the grade."

Confused about the quality of Emerald you are buying? This write-up will help you understand how emerald qualities differ from each other, which quality is best for you and what you should be paying for it. Background Unlike Diamonds (which has many parameters like cut, clarity etc., read more on that at our Diamond Guide ), a novice buyer should only be concerned with the “color” of Emerald. Do not worry about the inclusions in Emeralds that are visible to your eyes, since they are just natural minerals that occur commonly in most natural Emeralds.. Today, buying a diamond is very transparent and easy due to the standardization of all its characteristics and hence the general verification that all gemological laboratories can do very easily, affordably and consistently. Hence diamonds can be put into different categories for the customer to understand what (s)he is buying. But buying Emeralds (or other colored gemstones) can be trickier since they have no industry accepted standardization for the most part. Due to the high cost and no standard grading qualities, typically only color gemstones >$10,000 come with a certificate. So the question begs itself: How can a novice buyer be sure of the quality of his/her Emerald jewelry, from traditional retailers or online jewelers?"

So, first let us answer the questions which I have already discussed in my previous popular blog articles regarding why it is cheaper to buy rubies or other gemstones in Bangkok than in Myanmar or anywhere else in the world. I have answered these points in this post – How to Buy Gemstones in Bangkok, Thailand? In summary, it is the cheapest to buy rubies in Bangkok because it is still the largest, most liquid and major market in trading color gemstones. Best way to find this out is by doing a simple search on e Bay. You will still find Thai dealers having the most stock of rubies compared to any other country. Now this doesn’t mean the stones presented are genuine or much better than anywhere else."

"text": "Management & Mobility Review: Automation Anywhere Enterprise Mel Beckman | Mar 25, 2010Automating routine IT tasks has taken on new urgency as staff levels drop and other resources dwindle. If you've ever performed a computing task several times and wished you had time to write a program to do the task for you, you'll like the premise behind Automation Anywhere (AA). AA lets you build scripts that perform repetitive tasks without writing code. Instead, you either pantomime your task or create a step-by-step procedure using AA’s point-and-click task builder. AA has several versions, ranging from the entry-level Automation Anywhere Standard edition through the multi-user Server edition. This review looks at the midrange Enterprise edition, which lets you create and distribute automation packages to other users even if they don’t have AA installed. AA can automate a wide range of chores, from basic Windows configuration steps, through scripting desktop applications like Microsoft Excel and Word, to the ultimate: remote database and networking processes. You can access and interact with web pages, securely copy files via SFTP, and deploy tasks without an agent to other computers in a domain. Tasks can be scheduled for repeated execution, integrated into a workflow comprised of multiple tasks, or saved as a stand-alone .exe file, executable on any Windows box without any additional software. The core of AA is its Task Editor, which you can open directly to begin composing a task script, or indirectly via AA’s Watch mode."

TPG Contributor Richard Kerr takes a look at the latter, showing you how to use American’s upgrades. Much to our chagrin, the long-anticipated American AAdvantage devaluation has finally reared its ugly head. While not exactly a great beginning to the holiday season, it’s caused me to look at all the great aspects about the AAdvantage program which were (mostly) left in tact. One of the aspects is American’s elite upgrades. Today, I’ll cover how to use American’s systemwide upgrades.

So far we’ve covered Delta, and now we’re going to take a closer look at American Airlines’ AAdvantage program, starting with Gold status. AAdvantage Gold status. Qualification Gold is the lowest of American’s three elite status tiers. To achieve it, you must fly 25,000 qualifying miles or 30 segments or earn 25,000 points in a calendar year (January 1-December 31). You begin receiving elite benefits immediately upon qualification, and as long as you meet the standard requirements, your benefits will last through the end of the next membership year, which runs from March 1 through the final day of February of the following year.

Credit Ratings are a measure of the credit worthiness of an organization such as a government or a public or private corporation. It is also an assessment of the quality of debt (loan) instruments issued by these institutions. In layman’s terms, a credit rating is a score that shows the capacity of the borrowing entity to meet its financial obligations to investors. Who are the major credit rating agencies in the world? There are several credit rating agencies but the three major players in the world, accounting for at least 90% of the market, are Moody’s, Standard and Poor’s (S&P) and Fitch Ratings. Moody’s and S&P are based in the United States while Fitch Ratings has two headquarters, one in London and another in New York. The “Big Three” issue short-term and long-term ratings of debt papers of governments and companies worldwide and also an outlook on the assessed entity, such as positive, negative or stable.

Rupinderpal Singh Dhillon Rupinderpal Singh Dhillon, has lived in the UK most of his life and has the first hand experience of the difficulties of learning one's mother language in an alien environment. All over the world, especially in the Western countries, there are many Punjabi learning schools set up by the respective Governments and non-Government organisations (mainly Gurudwaras). Sadly, they all lack modern teaching aids and learning material (books etc.) readily available for all the other modern languages. This is attributable mainly due to fact that such material is neither developed nor available in the mother country, i.e. the Punjab. To address this issue the overseas Punjabi community (especially the Punjabi businesses and entrepreneurs) can do a lot, in terms of sponsoring such developments. We look forward to their suggestions and views."

Churches that host the group have discontinued meetings pending an investigation, but the local association of AA groups has taken no action. A story in Newsweek (Nick Summers) reports on complaints by a number of former members of the Midtown Group, a large AA group with an unusually high number of members in their teens and early twenties. The critics say that the group exerts too much control over members, encouraging them to break off all contacts with family and friends (even non-drinking ones), discontinue use of medicines, and have sex with other members of the group. They say that the group applies heavy pressure to keep people from leaving the group or attending other AA meetings. Following on the Newsweek story, a local television station has run a series of stories about the group, providing first person accounts of the accusations in the Newsweek articles (with disguised names and faces in shadows to protect the anonymity of the individuals). On the heels of these stories, the churches that host the meeting have barred the group . The Newsweek article and some of the televised news stories note that the AA office in New York (General Service Board of AA, EIN 23-7282071 Form 990) has no comment except to note that AA is completely decentralized and that each group is autonomous and follows its own conscience. But that is not the whole story. There are local associations of AA groups, like the Washington Area Intergroup Association (EIN 23-7243400 Form 990 ), which are responsible for publishing local lists of AA meetings, in print and on-line."

"text": "The High but Hidden Cost of College Sports Dec 24, 2015 Jody Lipford Jerry Slice2 Comments A barrage of articles in the popular press points out the escalating cost of higher education, rising student debt levels, and the financial struggles many colleges and universities face. Although many factors are at play, we maintain that expenditures of college athletics are a significant factor that are often overlooked, in particular for small schools, especially those with big-time athletic programs. A recent piece in USA Today points out that only 24 of 230 Division I public schools generated sufficient revenues to cover the total costs of their athletic programs, and that each of these schools was a member of one of the “Power Five” conferences (the Atlantic Coast Conference, the Big Ten, the Big Twelve, the Pacific Twelve, and the Southeastern Conference). A more recent piece in the Chronicle of Higher Education says that only six of 201 Division I schools cover total athletic costs. As the Center for College Affordability and Productivity points out, “ (w)hen an athletic program cannot cover its expenses through generated revenue, it is forced to rely on allocated funds from the wider institutional budget.” These subsidies from the wider institutional budget can be huge, approaching 90 percent of total athletic costs for small schools. As economists, we wondered, “How much are the costs of college athletics?” In particular, “How much are the costs per student? ” And of great import, “How do these costs vary with the size of the school and scale of the athletic program?” We estimated these costs using data collected by the federal government under the Equity in Athletics Disclosure Act."

[ 1] The anesthesiologist assistant works under the medical direction of an anesthesiologist as an assistant in the Anesthesia Care Team (ACT).

Anesthesiologist assistants work under the medical direction of physician anesthesiologists in surgical environments such as cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, transplant surgery, and trauma surgery centers. The incorporation of anesthesiologist assistants into ACT teams across the country is a dynamic process, and currently there are sixteen states, as well as Washington D. C. and the Veteran’s Affairs Medical System, in which anesthesiologist assistants are able to work but none currently do.

Is the AAS a terminal degree of sorts in nursing? This is important for me to know as I am applying to an ADN program that confers the AAS (it is a stand-alone nursing school affiliated with a hospital, fully accredited through ACEN) and I would like to eventually (preferably) move on to get an BSN. My primary goal however is to obtain a BSN from Ohio University-Online, but my ADN plans are just for backup in case I can't do ABSN. I know I need to speak with a counselor from OU about the classes I need, so if I take all of the required classes by OU for their program I should be okay to obtain a BSN from them correct? Would this be possible? Oh, clarification my school refers to the AAS as Associates of Applied Science (in Nursing) VS. an ADN (Associates degree in Nursing), I am just hoping that I can complete the program obtain my RN license and move on to OU RN-BSN program with no problem (after I have taken all of their pre-reqs) Someone please convince me I'm not crazy!!

"text": "Culinary Degrees Types G. Stephen Jones • September 23, 2013 • 0 Comments What Are the Differences between AOS, AAS, and AAWhen you’re choosing a culinary school, one of the things you want to be sure and look out for is the type of degree or diploma awarded upon graduation. Many culinary schools don’t offer traditional degrees at all, instead opting for certificates of completion or diplomas. These types of awards can be useful in the culinary setting, but are rarely recognized in the real working world. ( This doesn’t make them less valuable—it just means you should be aware of the differences. ) Some schools do offer degree programs, which you can usually determine by the initials AOS, AAS, or AA. Respectively, these designations stand for: Associate of Occupational Studies, Associate of Applied Science, and Associate of Arts. Although these all take the same amount of time to complete (usually about two years), they mean very different things. The AOS Degree- When you earn an Associate of Occupational Studies, your education is based primarily on vocational-level training. In other words, you’re there to learn a trade and land a job—and you may get to avoid quite a few core curriculum classes because of it. Because of the nature of culinary school, many degree programs take this approach."

READ: Sony Play Station Vita review Build and design The PS Vita Slim has roughly the same proportions as the original PS Vita when seen face-on (85.1 x 183.6mm to 83.5 x 182mm) but is obviously thinner - although only by 3mm. The PS Vita Slim is 15mm thick, while the PS Vita is 18mm."

The service has changed quite a bit since then and I have revised this Life Lock review as recently as January, 2018. Before signing up for Life Lock (that link offers the best deal I’ve ever seen at 10% off for the 1st year), it’s important to understand what you’re paying for. There are plenty of solid ways to protect yourself from identity theft that are absolutely, 100% free. In some ways these free identity protection measures go above and beyond the paid services, such as Life Lock, that are out there. In other ways, they fall short, and in order to keep up with them, it takes more manual work on your part. Let’s take a look at what Life Lock has to offer (for $9.99 per month for its “Standard” plan, with pricier higher service “Advantage” and “Ultimate Plus” plans also available), and whether you can achieve the same results for free on your own in this Life Lock review. Benefit Claim: Life Lock Identity Alert System and One-Bureau Credit Monitoring“It’s the foundation for all Life Lock services. We send alerts through the patented Life Lock Identity Alert system by text, phone, or email and our Identity Restoration Specialists are there to help."

Motor clubs such as AAA or Better World Club used to be a driver’s only option. But these days, an army of other businesses are offering roadside assistance plans: insurance companies, carmakers, oil companies, credit-card issuers, even cell-phone service providers. While the programs have many similarities--all will give (or reimburse you for) a tow--some have gaps in coverage that can leave you stranded or stuck with an unexpected bill. Plans offered by cell-phone services, for example, typically won’t cover you if you leave your phone at home. The basics Roadside assistance offerings vary from reimbursement for a tow, under some auto insurance policies, to full-service auto clubs such as AAA. For an annual charge of about $36 to $100, they provide towing, flat-tire changing, lost-key replacement, help with vehicles that are stuck, and delivery of fuel or coolant. They also offer maps and directions, travel and hotel discounts, trip-interruption insurance, and help in locating hotels or alternative transportation when your car is disabled. What’s more, high-tech services such as On Star can have your car literally calling for help and reporting the exact location of your breakdown or collision. In between those extremes are car-manufacturer plans that come free with a new car for the length of the warranty, usually three or four years. ("

"text": "\"AAII Journal > November 2001Read Comments (0)How Credit Ratings Affect Bond Valuations There is widespread misunderstanding about what credit ratings really mean, and how they affect the returns that you earn and the overall riskiness of your portfolio. Investors generally rely on bond ratings to evaluate the credit quality of specific bonds. Credit ratings indicate on a scale of high to low the probability of default; that is, the probability that debt will not be repaid on time in full. Failure to redeem principal at maturity would constitute a default. Failure to make interest payments on time (that is, to pay coupons to bondholders) would also constitute a default. In plain English, ratings answer two questions: How likely am I to get my money back at maturity, and how likely am I to get my interest payments on time? All bonds are not subject to default risk. Any security issued directly by the U. S. government is considered free of default risk. Although these bonds are not rated, they are considered the safest and highest-quality securities that you can buy because a default by the U. S. government is deemed impossible. This includes all Treasury securities, as well as savings bonds."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search A legal nurse consultant ( LNC) is a registered nurse who uses expertise as a health care provider and specialized training to consult on medical-related legal cases. LNCs assist attorneys in reading medical records and understanding medical terminology and healthcare issues to achieve the best results for their clients. [ 1] The specialty is a relatively recent one, beginning in the mid-1980s. [ 2]A legal nurse consultant bridges gaps in an attorney's knowledge. While the attorney is an expert on legal issues, the LNC is an expert on nursing and the health care system. LNCs screen cases for merit, assist with discovery; conduct the existing literature and medical research; review medical records; identify standards of care; prepare reports and summaries on the extent of injury or illness; create demonstrative evidence; and locate or act as expert witnesses. The legal nurse consultant acts as a specialized member of the litigation team whose professional contributions are often critical to achieving a fair and just outcome for all parties. [ 1]A legal nurse consultant differs from a paralegal in that a paralegal assists attorneys in the delivery of legal services and frequently requires a legal education, while a legal nurse consultant is first and foremost a practictioner of nursing, and legal education is not necessarily a prerequisite. A legal nurse consultant uses existing expertise as a health care professional to consult and educate clients on specific medical and nursing issues in their cases. Aside from within law firms, LNCs may also be found working for government agencies, insurance companies and HMOs, in hospitals as part of the risk management department, and may also be in independent practice.

"text": "Legal nurse consultants (LNCs) are valued members of legal teams, providing guidance during discovery by lending their expertise to the assembly of medically accurate and factually persuasive information used in legal cases involving medical malpractice, wrongful death, injury, or that are otherwise related to medical issues. The American Legal Nurse Consultant Certification Board has established that LNCs can, among other things: Assist with screening new cases for medical merit Identify and elaborate on established standards of care Locate causation and describe damage Conduct research and summarize medical literature Assemble timelines of medical events and discover discrepancies Provide education on medical facts and issues to legal parties Determine damages unfolding from medical aspects of a case Locate and retain expert witnesses or act as an expert witness Assist in composing and analyzing all manner of legal documents, including complaints, answers, depositions, trial briefs, etc. Facilitate client, attorney and witness communication Assist with many more legal tasks that require the specialized expertise of a registered nurse While it is not necessary to obtain certification for a registered nurse to act as a medical consultant in a legal case, attorneys most often seek LNCs with additional certification from either the American Legal Nurse Consultant Certification Board (ALNCCB) or from the National Alliance of Certified Legal Nurse Consultants (NACLNC). While many LNCs work full time as legal consultants for corporations, law firms, or operate independent consulting firms of their own, most consult on a part-time basis, augmenting their existing income as an RN or advanced practice registered nurse. As such, obtaining certification and continuing education in legal nurse consulting is a common pathway by which nurses expand the scope of their professional expertise and acquire additional income. Sponsored Listing Featured Program: Washington University School of Law's Master of Legal Studies program can be completed in as little as 12 months and is designed for professionals — such as RNs, NPs and health care administrators — who want legal training without becoming an attorney or earning the more in-depth J. D. degree. Legal Nurse Consultant Pathways and Prerequisites The American Association of Legal Nurse Consultants Member Needs Assessment Survey (most recently published in 2005) notes that 59 percent of LNCs held bachelor degrees, 27 percent held master’s degrees and 26 percent held associate’s degrees. At the very minimum, a registered nurse seeking to serve as an LNC should have specialized training and practical experience in the area of medical practice for which they offer consultation services. However, attorneys are most eager to work with LNCs with the training necessary to become familiar with the institutions, procedures, and language of the legal realm. LNCs should also possess a sharp, intellectual curiosity and a creative, flexible intellect in order to successfully assist in building legal cases."

"text": "\"Education and Certification in Legal Nurse Consulting The legal nurse consultant’s primary educational foundation is the theory and practice of professional nursing. Entry into the specialty requires at a minimum, completion of a formal nursing education program and active licensure as a registered nurse. Optimally, legal nurse consultants should have been licensed as a registered nurse for at least five years and have significant clinical experience in order to bring the most value to the legal nurse consulting role. Legal nurse consulting is the analysis and evaluation of facts and testimony related to the delivery of nursing and other healthcare services. Legal nurses render informed opinions on the nature and cause of injuries and (in relation to) patient outcomes. The legal nurse consultant is a licensed registered nurse who performs a critical analysis of clinically related issues in a variety of settings in the legal arena. The nurse expert with a strong educational and experiential foundation is qualified to assess adherence to standards and guidelines of practice as applied to nursing practice. The practice of legal nurse consulting predates any specialty organization, training program, or certification. While many legal nurse consultants have acquired knowledge of the legal system through such experience as consulting with attorneys and attending seminars, legal or paralegal education is not a prerequisite to the practice of legal nurse consulting. In the early days of the specialty, nurses became legal nurse consultants (LNCs) without the benefit of formal education, relying on their nursing expertise and informal guidance or \"\"on the job training\"\" from attorneys."

"text": "\"Who Pays the Part D Higher-Income Surcharge? Drug coverage in a retiree plan may not exempt youby Patricia Barry, AARP Bulletin | Comments: 0En español | Q. I've been told I must pay the higher-income Part D surcharge. But I get my drugs through retiree benefits from my former employer, not through Medicare. If I'm not enrolled in Part D, can they make me pay this surcharge? A. Maybe, maybe not. It depends on the kind of prescription drug coverage you receive from your former employer. See also: Select the best Part D prescription plan for you. Medicare beneficiaries with higher incomes are now required to pay more for Part D prescription drug coverage as well as pay higher premiums for Part B. The Part D surcharge started Jan. 1, 2011 as a cost-saving provision of the new health care law, whereas the Part B surcharge has been in effect since the beginning of 2007. In both cases, the surcharges affect only people whose modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) on their latest tax returns is higher than $85,000 for a single person or $170,000 for a married couple filing joint returns.

Q. In reading up on financing a retirement, I've been running across references to a need for Social Security credits. What are these credits? How do you earn them? And how many do you need to qualify for Social Security benefits? A. Basically, Social Security credits are accounting units that you earn when you work and pay Social Security taxes. In 2015, you get one credit for every $1,220 that you earn in wages. By earning $4,880, you get four credits, which is the maximum you can receive in one year. Subscribe to the AARP Money Newsletter for more on work, retirement, and finances Down the road, the number of credits you've accrued over your working life will become very important for you: They'll determine whether you can qualify for three types of Social Security payments: retirement benefits, disability benefits and survivor benefits for your family members. Credits are a key part of how Social Security functions: The system provides \"\"earned benefits\"\" — payments don't just show up in your bank account once you reach a certain age."

"text": "\"Medicare: Inpatient or Outpatient? Staying in the hospital without being formally admitted can cost you thousands of dollarsby Patricia Barry, AARP Bulletin, October 2012 | Comments: 0En español | Jean Arnau spent five days in the hospital with a fractured spine — lying in a hospital bed, wearing a hospital gown and ID bracelet, eating hospital food and receiving regular nursing care. But when she was discharged and needed to transfer to a skilled nursing facility for rehabilitation, her family learned that she had never been formally admitted as an inpatient to the hospital at all. Instead, she'd been classified as an outpatient under \"\"observation\"\" — a status that would cost her thousands of dollars. Sign up for the AARP Health Newsletter. Photo by Flickr/Getty Images Being classified as an outpatient under \"\"observation\"\" can spike your hospital costs. Most patients would regard as meaningless the seemingly slight distinction between the two labels — after all, they're getting exactly the same kind of care. But it can have costly consequences. Under the rules, Medicare picks up the whole tab for the first 20 days in an approved skilled nursing facility for rehab or other care, but only if someone has spent at least three full days in the hospital as an admitted patient. If instead a patient has been under observation — for all or part of that time — he or she is responsible for the entire cost of rehab. ["

"text": "Most seniors are too busy living their lives to worry much about the “age” thing, but if you are a retiree 65 or older, while you’re dancing, running, shopping, traveling and computing, it’s a good idea to take care of the “Medicare” thing, just in case. What is an AARP Medicare Supplement Plan? Medicare is a social insurance program established by Congress in the 1960s to help Americans over 65 pay for their health care. Medicare Part A is hospital insurance, and is free if you paid Medicare taxes while working. Medicare Part B is medical insurance, and there is a monthly charge for Part B. Medicare Part D is a prescription drug system that provides a wide choice of prescription drug plans for anyone enrolled in Part A or Part B. AARP is a nonprofit organization founded in 1958 to help people 50 and over improve the quality of their lives. It promotes social change by providing products such as health insurance, life insurance, and long-term care insurance to its members. AARP is known for their support of senior citizens. Why Do I Need a Medicare Supplement Plan? Medicare supplemental programs are health care options provided by private insurance carriers to supplement the cost of Medicare coverage for retirees. You need a Medicare supplement insurance plan because Medicare does not cover all health care expenses."

"text": "What Is a Medicare Hospital Benefit Period?by Patricia Barry, AARP Bulletin, Updated May 2014Q. What does a “hospital benefit period” mean? I’m about to go into the hospital for major surgery and will need rehabilitation therapy afterward. I’m concerned about how long Medicare will pay for my care. A. A hospital benefit period is one of those aspects of Medicare coverage that many people find especially difficult to understand. Which isn’t surprising. You’d think that a benefit period would simply be a length of time during which Medicare would cover your care if you’re admitted to the hospital. But it doesn’t work like that. A benefit period begins on the day you’re admitted and ends when you’ve been out of the hospital for 60 days in a row. So if you’ve left the hospital on a certain day, and are then readmitted before 60 days from that date is up, you’re still within the same benefit period. But if you go back into the hospital after that 60th day, you’re then in a new benefit period."

"text": "Medicare Dental Coverage and Supplemental Dental Benefits Medicare dental benefits – available to those 65 years of age and older, those with disabilities and those with chronic kidney disease – are meager by any measure. What Medicare Dental Coverage Pays For Dentists routinely rate Medicare’s oral health benefits as none, or next to zero, since they are limited to services deemed medically necessary, such as a dental exam prior to kidney transplantation or heart valve replacement, extractions performed in preparation for radiation treatment involving the jaw or jaw reconstruction following accidental injury. Medicare does not cover routine dental care or most dental procedures such as cleanings, fillings, tooth extractions or dentures. However, efforts in Congress, particularly the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003, have created incentives for Medicare-managed plans (not subject to the strict regulations of Medicare itself) to offer enhanced dental benefits. Medicare will pay for some dentistry-related hospitalizations; for example, if you develop an infection after having a tooth pulled or you require observation during a dental procedure because you have a health-threatening condition. In such cases, Medicare will cover the costs of hospitalization and your dentist’s treatment fee. Medicare will never cover any dental care specifically excluded from Original Medicare (i.e., dentures), even if you are in the hospital. Medicare Parts A and BMedicare coverage is divided into two parts. Part A is a hospital insurance program. If you are eligible, you can enroll without charge."

Apparently renewing my auto insurance is going to bump up my price by $2,000 plus and when I spoke with whomever on the phone they told me it was to pay for the California fires last year. WHAT? Also I was told that the increase reflected some 3 years gone headlight fix it ticket, but is a mistake. W H A T? ! Helpful 2 people found this review helpful Marc of Denver, CO Verified Reviewer Original review: March 27, 2018A few weeks ago The Hartford sent my 80 year old mother a $500 premium increase on her auto insurance policy. She has never had an accident. Rightfully I was upset, so I called for clarification and was talked in circles by a representative who offered only Trumponian logic as an explanation. Being angry, I expressed myself on social media and received an message from The Hartford feigning concern and requesting my mother’s policy number so they could look into her case and contact her. They never did."

This includes 15” aluminum wheels, power accessories, cloth interior, 50/50 rear folding seats and Bluetooth connectivity to the six-speaker stereo system. You can upgrade to a higher trim level to get things like 16” alloy wheels, sport-styled interior, sports-tuned brakes and suspension, fog lights, premium Alpine stereo system, rear spoiler, glass roof, retractable cloth convertible roof (on the 500C model), heated seats in the front, optional leather upholstery, auto-dim mirrors, parking sensors, and a number of other options like a Tom Tom navigation system and arear wind deflector.

It’s been confirmed as a no-cost standard fit on all Lineartronic Outback models and we tested the system that’ll go on sale at an exclusive launch in Frankfurt. Eye Sight V3 is fitted with two colour cameras mounted above the rear view mirror and has been shrunk compared to its bulkier predecessor. Its range is 110 metres with a 35-degree field of vision and it can determine what obstacles are – whether it’s a car, pedestrian or cyclist. The Eye Sight package has adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, lead-vehicle start alert and autonomous emergency braking with a three-stage pre-collision warning setup.

Video Smart Player invented by Digiteka Our test took us on the Autobahn where the adaptive cruise control felt smoother than other systems on the market. Compared to laser-focused systems on rival cars, independent tests have shown Eye Sight can stop cars from higher speeds - up to 30mph.• Whiplash fraudsters hit in pocket It’ll speed the car up as you indicate to overtake, too, to make manoeuvres quicker and safer. And because the cameras are looking so far down the road, you can adjust how closely you follow the car in front at the click of a button. It was easy to use and intuitive with just a couple of steering wheel-mounted buttons controlling it all. The lane departure warning felt a little over-sensitive for us, though, especially when off the motorway and driving on rural roads but you can turn off the systems if they get too overbearing."

In a few weeks from now I’ll start working again, in a post-Saab position, and I’m probably going to need to buy a car to get there and back. The questions is – which car should I buy next? I say probably as I actually have access to a couple of vehicles at the moment – a Subaru Impreza and a Toyota Corolla (more on that one later). Neither of those are floating my boat, however, and I can’t see myself going too long without something more….. engaging. I should say at this point that I don’t mean to upset any Saab fans by posting this. No-one cares about Saab more than I do but I have to recognise that my time working for Saab is over. Even if the company were to be purchased as part of the bankruptcy proceedings, it is highly unlikely that I would be asked to work for the new entity."

"text": "\"Contents [ hide ]1 Same-Origin Policy2 General Principles3 Network Access3.1 Details3.2 Exceptions4 Relevant specifications Same-Origin Policy There is no single same-origin policy. General Principles An origin is defined by the scheme, host, and port of a URL. Generally speaking, documents retrieved from distinct origins are isolated from each other. For example, if a document retrieved from http://example.com/doc.html tries to access the DOM of a document retrieved from https://example.com/target.html, the user agent will disallow access because the origin of the first document, (http, example.com, 80), does not match the origin of the second document (https, example.com, 443). Although the same-origin policy differs between APIs, the overarching intent is to let users visit untrusted web sites without those web sites interfering with the user's session with honest web sites. Network Access For networking APIs, the same-origin policy distinguishes between sending and receiving information. Broadly, one origin is permitted to send information to another origin, but one origin is not permitted to receive information from another origin. The prohibition on receiving information is intended to prevent malicious web sites from reading confidential information from other web sites, but also prevents web content from legitimately reading information offered by other web sites. Under the same-origin policy, cross-site sending of information is also dangerous since it enables attacks such as cross-site request forgery (CSRF) and clickjacking. The same-origin policy cannot address these security vulnerabilities in the same way it does those around receiving of information since prohibiting cross-site sending of information would prohibit cross-site hyperlinks."

[ 3] [8]With a transverse engine and gearbox in a mid-mounted, rear-wheel drive configuration, the X1/9 was noted for its balanced handling, [3] [9] retractable headlights, lightweight-removable hardtop, front and rear-storage compartments — and for being designed from its conception to meet the late 1960s U. S. safety regulations.

The Runabout was powered by the same engine as the Autobianchi A112. [ 10] The Runabout featured a distinctive wedge shape and took many styling cues from contemporary power-boat design. Though the more extreme features of the Runabout such as the C pillar mounted headlights and the small wind-deflector windscreen were lost for the production car, many aesthetic features of the Autobianchi Runabout are readily identifiable on the X1/9. The long flat bonnet ( hood) with central indentation, the large front overhang, the wedge shape with prominent C pillar roll-over hoop and the car-length indented plimsoll-line all made the successful transition to the X1/9, giving it a highly distinctive appearance. Designed around the all-new Fiat SOHC engine and transmission from the front wheel drive Fiat 128, the X1/9 relocated the transverse drive train and suspension assembly from the front of the 128 to the rear of the passenger cabin, directly in front of the rear axle, giving a mid-engined layout."

So here are a fifteen of our favorite hatchbacks that can be parked in the garage for less than $20,000.2017 Chevy Sonic Price : $18,455EPA Fuel Economy (city/highway) : 28/38Rear Cargo Volume (cubic feet with seats up) : 19One of our longtime favorite hatches, the Chevrolet Sonic, is fresh-faced for 2017 with a new headlamp, grill, and bumper treatment. Chevy has also widened the color palette for the Sonic, incorporated new wheel designs, and updated the interior with a new 7-inch infotainment system. Chevy says this is the first car in its class with an optional power driver's seat. And all hatchbacks wear the sporty RS package with a sports exhaust, flat bottom steering wheel. The Sonic's mechanicals remain largely the same, meaning you'll want to spend an additional $750 and have the torquier 1.4-liter turbo motor. When paired to the six-speed manual—it's really fun.

Americans just don't want to be bothered with the chore of working a clutch with their left foot and shifting with their right. And sports car manufacturers are the worst offenders when it comes to quitting on the stick shift. Because the newest computer-controlled automatics can shift more quickly than any human can, engineers see the manual transmission as outdated. We disagree. Shifting a manual transmission is not only more engaging and fun than flicking some dainty little paddles, it also requires more skill and makes the driver a better one. Some carmakers still see the beauty of the manual transmission. Here are 20 of the greatest driver's machines that still do.12018 Mazda Miata Mazda Base Price: $26,185Since the summer of 1989, the reasonably priced Mazda MX-5 Miata has been thrilling sports car fans with its featherweight rear-drive chassis (just over 2,000 pounds) and drop top fun-in-the-sun persona."

It has a taller stance and, unlike other Coopers, four conventional side doors and available all-wheel drive. Buyers have a choice of a normally aspirated four-cylinder engine or a turbo four-cylinder (S versions). It competes against the Volkswagen Tiguan and Nissan Juke. New for 2013 Bluetooth connectivity is now standard, while the previously standard satellite radio feature is now optional. Exterior The Countryman is instantly recognizable as a Mini, but it loses some of the \"\"cuteness\"\" that's been a defining element of the regular Cooper. The grille is larger and more upright, and the headlights aren't circular like they are on the Cooper. Overall, the Countryman's front-end styling is more aggressive and serious. Roof rails are standard. The addition of rear side doors does wonders for backseat ease of entry, which is a problem in the Cooper."

Published 7 April 2015From: Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs Applies to: England Contents What can be a statutory nuisance Abatement notices Penalties for not complying with an abatement notice Appeals Environmental permits Councils must investigate complaints about issues that could be a ‘statutory nuisance’ (a nuisance covered by the Environmental Protection Act 1990 ). If they agree that a statutory nuisance is happening, has happened or will happen in the future, councils must serve an abatement notice (usually on the person responsible). What can be a statutory nuisance Issues that may be a statutory nuisance include:noise from premises or from vehicles, equipment or machinery in the streetsmoke from premisessmells from industry, trade or business premises (for example, sewage treatment works, factories or restaurants)artificial light from premisesinsect infestations from industrial, trade or business premisesaccumulation or deposits on premises (for example, piles of rotting rubbish)For the issue to count as a statutory nuisance it must do one of the following:unreasonably and substantially interfere with the use or enjoyment of a home or other premisesinjure health or be likely to injure health Abatement notices Councils must serve an abatement notice on people responsible for statutory nuisances, or on a premises owner or occupier if this isn’t possible. This may require whoever’s responsible to stop the activity or limit it to certain times to avoid causing a nuisance and can include specific actions to reduce the problem. For noise nuisances from premises, the notice can be delayed for up to 7 days while the council tries to get the person responsible to stop or restrict the noise. The abatement notice must be served on the premises owner or occupier if either of the following apply:the person responsible can’t be foundthe nuisance hasn’t yet happened but is likely to happen in the future If the nuisance is caused by a structural defect on the premises, the abatement notice must be served on the premises owner. If the nuisance is caused by unattended vehicles, machinery or equipment in the street, the notice can be served by fixing the notice to the vehicle, machinery or equipment if the person responsible can’t be found. Penalties for not complying with an abatement notice If someone doesn’t comply with an abatement notice they can be prosecuted and fined:a lump sum (the amount is set by the court)further fines for each day they fail to comply (the amount is set by the court)Councils can also take action to stop or restrict the nuisance by:carrying out works and making the person given the notice pay for them (this can include seizure and confiscation of equipment)applying to the High Court for an injunction (if a prosecution isn’t adequate)Appeals Those served with an abatement notice can appeal to a magistrates court within 21 days of getting the notice. Grounds for appeal include:legal tests haven’t been met to show that the issue is a statutory nuisancethe notice was served on the wrong personthe notice is defective In certain cases, people who’ve used the best practicable means to stop or reduce a nuisance may be able to use this as:grounds for appeal against the abatement noticea defence, if prosecuted for not complying with the abatement notice Environmental permits The Environment Agency ( EA) controls some potential statutory nuisances like noise, smell and dust with environmental permits, as part of pollution control."

Follow 2 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: This is the etymology bate (1) \"\"to reduce, to lessen in intensity,\"\" c.1300, aphetic of abate (q.v.). Now only in phrase bated breath, which was first used by Shakespeare in \"\"The Merchant of Venice\"\" (1596) \"\"with bated breath - in a state of suspenseful anticipation.\"\" Wikipedia says: The phrase bated breath, used in a sentence such as \"\"I am waiting for your answer with bated breath\"\", refers to a state in which the speaker nearly stops breathing through fear, anxiety, awe, anticipation, or suspense. In this sense, \"\"bated\"\" is a contraction of the word \"\"abated\"\". However, some people misspell the phrase as \"\"baited breath\"\". The words \"\"bated\"\" and \"\"baited\"\" are homonyms. ( Baited is INCORRECT!--so don't use it, unless you put a worm in your mouth and happen to be fishing.) All these definitions...it just refers to a state of excitement...when you rush in to something and are so excited that you hold your breath while you hover in anticipation of the answer. It's certainly fewer words to say \"\"bated breath\"\" than it is to write it out."

The one-year rule also applies to a final determination of a change made by the IRS, which was initiated by the filing of an amended federal return by the taxpayer. For further information, see Chapter 485 of the Acts of 1998. Business Tax If a change by the federal government in a corporation’s federal taxable income results in a change in tax due the Commonwealth than was previously paid, the taxpayer may adjust the amounts shown on the original return, and submit an amended return to DOR online through Mass Tax Connect. Corporate filers may file amended returns electronically through third-party tax preparation software whether the amendment increases or decreases the tax due. Keep in mind that some taxpayers are required to file amended returns electronically. Refer to TIR 15-9, Electronic Filing and Payment Requirements Extended to Additional Tax Types, to see if the electronic filing and payment requirements apply to you. Filing electronically is always the quickest option but if you are not required to file electronically, check the amended return box on your paper return and file it the way you usually do. Definition of Final Determination by the Federal Government Effective as of January 1, 2004: A final federal determination means there is no further administrative or judicial appeal. Changes in federal taxable income resulting from a closing agreement, an offer in compromise or any similar agreement executed on or after January 1, 2004, constitute a final determination of a change by the federal government."

"text": "\"Facts About True HEPA Filtration Information on the HEPA Filters Equipped with Abatement Technologies® HEPA-CARE® Air Purification Systems What does the term HEPA mean? HEPA is an acronym for \"\"High Efficiency Particulate Air\"\" or \"\"High Efficiency Particulate Arrestance.\"\" This acronym refers to a filter that is manufactured, tested, certified, and labeled in accordance with current HEPA filter standards. There are several sub-classes within the HEPA classification. The minimum HEPA category requires the filter to capture 99.97% of the 0.3-micron (0.000012-inch) particles in the air passing through the filter. What is it that makes HEPA filters so efficient? The ultra-fine, glass-fiber medium captures microscopic particles that can easily pass through other filters by a combination of diffusion, interception and inertial impaction. To meet the minimum requirements of a HEPA filter, the filter must be tested and certified to prove that it will remove at least 99.97% (9,997 out of 10,000) of particles 0.3-micron in diameter from the air passing through the filter. Particles that size are about 300 times smaller than the diameter of a human hair, and 25 to 50 times smaller than we can see. To a HEPA filter, catching a one-micron particle (1/1,000,000 of a meter) is the equivalent of stopping a cotton ball with a door screen."

[ 1]Environmental economics is distinguished from ecological economics in that ecological economics emphasizes the economy as a subsystem of the ecosystem with its focus upon preserving natural capital. [ 2] One survey of German economists found that ecological and environmental economics are different schools of economic thought, with ecological economists emphasizing \"\"strong\"\" sustainability and rejecting the proposition that natural capital can be substituted by human-made capital.

"text": "\"Ignorance of Law Law and Legal Definition Ignorance of law means want of knowledge of those laws which a person has a duty to know and which everyman is presumed to know. Ignorance can be voluntary or involuntary. It is voluntary when a person might by taking reasonable pains could have acquired the necessary knowledge. For example every man can acquire knowledge of the laws which have been promulgated. Therefore neglect to become acquainted with them is voluntary ignorance. On the other hand it is involuntary when the ignorance is not of choice and it cannot be overcome by the use of any means of knowledge known to him and within his power. For example ignorance of a law which has not yet been promulgated. Ignorantia juris non excusat or Ignorantia legis neminem excusat is a Latin maxim which means \"\"ignorance of the law does not excuse\"\" or \"\"ignorance of the law excuses no one.\"\" The rationale of this maxim is that if ignorance of law was an excuse then any person charged with a criminal offense or subject of a civil suit can claim that he or she was unaware of the law in question and avoid liability. The law imputes knowledge of all laws to all persons within its jurisdiction."

"text": "\"What is ABATE? ABATE is a motorcycle organization composed of motorcycle enthusiasts throughout the country. Putting motorcycle legislation in its proper perspective is our main concern. This is accomplished through safety education programs, public awareness programs and other proposals designed to prevent fatal or injury accidents. ABATE is a neutral organization that allows all riders to unite in a brotherhood to safeguard our rights and still be individuals with different views. ABATE feels that all motorcyclists are brothers and sisters with common interest . . . riding free! A great many restrictive laws pertaining to motorcycles and riders were enacted by an uninformed or misdirected legislature. ABATE's goal in Kansas is to keep our legislators informed of our feelings about any Bill that we feel would be unfair or discriminatory towards motorcyclists. To prevent an unfair Bill from becoming a law is much easier than fighting to get a law repealed."

"text": "\"Penalties Pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), the IRS can assess penalties for failure to file a tax return timely, failure to pay the tax liability when due (normally, the due date for the return, a deposit due date for employment taxes, and other situations), for filing an inaccurate return (accuracy related penalty), of for a fraudulent return (IRC 6663 - intentional underreporting of income or overstating expenses ). There are numerous penalties that Congress defined in the IRC that can be assessed. This page will discuss the most common types of penalties. Generally, a penalty that is assessed can be abated (removed) if reasonable cause can be established as the cause of the non-compliance . Proving reasonable cause can be very challenging. Therefore, a tax professional should be retained to maximize the probability of relief from penalties. A NOTE FOR PREPARERS : If your client is being assessed a penalty based upon YOUR mistake, it may be wise for you to retain another tax professional to represent your client. This representative can more effectively argue detrimental reliance by your client on your professional services and advice. If you attempt on your own to get the penalty abated because of your mistake, the IRS may view your efforts as self-serving and not seriously consider the facts and circumstances. Getting your client relieved of the penalty will generally reduce the potential out-of-pocket cost to you for your mistake (or preclude you from having to file a claim with your professional liability company to reimburse the client)."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Example of a diploma from Suffolk University Law School conferring the Juris Doctor degree The Juris Doctor degree ( J. D. or JD ), also known as the Doctor of Jurisprudence degree ( J. D., JD, D. Jur. or DJur ), is a graduate-entry professional degree in law [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] and one of several Doctor of Law degrees. It is earned by completing law school in Australia, Canada and the United States, and some other common law countries. It has the academic standing of a professional doctorate in the United States, [6] [7] [8] a master's degree in Australia [9], and a second-entry, baccalaureate degree in Canada, [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] (in all three jurisdictions the same as other professional degrees such as M. D. or D. D. S., the degrees required to be a practicing physician or dentist, respectively). [ 15] [16] [17]The degree was first awarded in the United States in the early 20th century and was created as a modern version of the old European doctor of law degree (such as the Dottore in Giurisprudenza in Italy and the Juris Utriusque Doctor in Germany and central Europe). [ 18] Originating from the 19th century Harvard movement for the scientific study of law, it is a degree that in most common law jurisdictions is the primary professional preparation for lawyers. It involves a three-year program in most jurisdictions. [ 19] [20]To be authorized to practice law in the courts of a given state in the United States, the majority of individuals holding a J. D. degree must pass a bar examination. [ 21] [22] [23] [24] The state of Wisconsin, however, permits the graduates of its two law schools to practice law in that state, and in its state courts, without having to take its bar exam—a practice called \"\"diploma privilege\"\"—provided they complete the courses needed to satisfy the diploma privilege requirements. In the United States, passing an additional bar exam is not required of lawyers authorized to practice in at least one state to practice in the national courts of the United States, courts commonly known as \"\"federal courts\"\"."

"text": "\"How to Address a Person with a Ph DHow to Address a Person holding a Doctorate1) Holders of doctorates who work in academia or research institutions are addressed as Dr. (Name) professionally and socially in a salutation or conversation. Thus a Ph D professor at a college, a Ph D in biology doing scientific research, and a Ph D principal at an elementary school all use Dr. and everybody thinks it is normal. NOTE: At some universities it is traditional to address faculty holding of academic doctorates as Mr. (Name) or Professor (Name) and not to address as Dr. (Name) . If you know it is the tradition it is correct to use it. But for those outside the academic community it is acceptable to address holders of doctorates as Dr. (Name) in writing or oral address.2) Protestant clergy with doctorates are typically addressed as Dr. (Name) in a salutation or conversation too. I specify Protestant here because not all clergy is. For example, neither priests (addressed as Father [Name]) nor rabbis (addressed as Rabbi [Name]) holding doctorates are ever addressed as Dr. [Name]. They stick with Father [Name]) and as Rabbi [Name].3) Holders of doctorates who work outside academia or research don't always prefer to be addressed as Dr. (Name). in a salutation or conversation. In the USA \"\"Dr.\"\" may be used depending on the work environment and/or when the degree isn't pertinent to the conversation. E.g., a Ph D in finance working at a bank or a Ph D in American history working in software development are not likely to insist on being addressed as Dr. (Name)."

"text": "\"Calendar date to Julian date Year: Month: Day: AD BCHour: Minute: Second: Universal Time (UT1)Julian date to Calendar date Julian Date: Notes Julian dates (abbreviated JD) are simply a continuous count of days and fractions since noon Universal Time on January 1, 4713 BC (on the Julian calendar). Almost 2.5 million days have transpired since this date. Julian dates are widely used as time variables within astronomical software. Typically, a 64-bit floating point (double precision) variable can represent an epoch expressed as a Julian date to about 1 millisecond precision. Note that the time scale that is the basis for Julian dates is Universal Time , and that 0h UT corresponds to a Julian date fraction of 0.5. It is assumed that 7-day weeks have formed an uninterrupted sequence since ancient times. Thus, the day of the week can be obtained from the remainder of the division of the Julian date by 7. Calendar dates — year, month, and day — are more problematic. Various calendar systems have been in use at different times and places around the world. This application deals with only two: the Gregorian calendar, now used universally for civil purposes, and the Julian calendar, its predecessor in the western world."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Juris doctorate)navigation search Example of a diploma from Suffolk University Law School conferring the Juris Doctor degree The Juris Doctor degree ( J. D. or JD ), also known as the Doctor of Jurisprudence degree ( J. D., JD, D. Jur. or DJur ), is a graduate-entry professional degree in law [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] and one of several Doctor of Law degrees. It is earned by completing law school in Australia, Canada and the United States, and some other common law countries. It has the academic standing of a second-entry, baccalaureate degree in Canada, [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] a master's degree in Australia [11] and a professional doctorate in the United States (in all three jurisdictions the same as other professional degrees such as M. D. or D. D. S. ). [ 12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17]The degree was first awarded in the United States in the early 20th century and was created as a modern version of the old European doctor of law degree (such as the Dottore in Giurisprudenza in Italy and the Juris Utriusque Doctor in Germany and central Europe). [ 18] Originating from the 19th century Harvard movement for the scientific study of law, it is a degree that in most common law jurisdictions is the primary professional preparation for lawyers. It involves a three-year program in most jurisdictions. [ 19] [20]To be authorized to practice law in the courts of a given state in the United States, the majority of individuals holding a J. D. degree must pass a bar examination. [ 21] [22] [23] [24] The state of Wisconsin, however, permits the graduates of its two law schools to practice law in that state, and in its state courts, without having to take its bar exam—a practice called \"\"diploma privilege\"\"—provided they complete the courses needed to satisfy the diploma privilege requirements. In the United States, passing an additional bar exam is not required of lawyers authorized to practice in at least one state to practice in the national courts of the United States, courts commonly known as \"\"federal courts\"\"."

Updated Feb 18, 2017 · Author has 344 answers and 409.5k answer views A group of letters placed after someone’s name to provide some additional information about them. In Britain, these are some common ones: If a person and their child have the same names, they can be referred to as (for instance) “John Smith senior” and “John Smith junior”. This is abbreviated to “John Smith snr” and “John Smith jnr”. A man may have the letters esq after his name - short for “esquire”. Historically, this had a particular meaning. Now, however, it is simply an alternative to putting “Mr” in front of their name; it means no more than that and no less. If a person has an academic qualification, they may put an abbreviated form of it after their name. For instance, if Jane Brown has a bachelor of science degree, Jill Brown has a master of arts degree, and Jemima Brown has a doctor of philosophy degree, they will normally call themselves Jane Brown B.

It advances linearly, completing each unit step at the same instant that a perfect pendulum with a frequency of 1 Hz completes a new oscillation. Without loss of generality we will set at the stroke of midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC. This time is also denoted Jan 1 00:00:00 UTC.

"text": "The Overhead Shoulder Rotation Quandaryby Derrick Blanton One thing I noticed very early on in my training journey is that people move and lift stuff differently. Even the top lifters in the world rarely do it exactly the same way. I find myself constantly making mental notes on different lifting strategies. As you might imagine, I also spend a ton of time studying the coaching techniques, rationales, and cues of the most prominent names in S&C; and then trying to tie it all together with my “in the trenches” observations and firsthand experiences. Every now and again, I see a disconnect between the “right way” to do a lift, and effective “real world” expressions of loaded movement. Of course, then I obsessively go about trying to figure out the root of the discrepancy!Take the shoulder, and what constitutes the safest, most congruent position as it arises overhead. Don’t worry, we are not going to dive back into the scapular “ shoulder packing ” debate; enough already with that one. Rather, let’s discuss this concept of rotation at the shoulder, specifically external rotation. ( FWIW, external rotation when initiated at the proximal shoulder does indeed have a close relationship with ‘shoulder packing’, as externally rotating the shoulder also fires the lower traps pretty hard as a stabilizer. But let’s stay on point here! )"

It involves articulation between the glenoid cavity of the scapula (shoulder blade) and the head of the humerus (upper arm bone ). Due to the very loose joint capsule that gives a limited interface of the humerus and scapula, it is the most mobile joint of the human body.

The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint between the scapula and the humerus. However the socket of the glenoid cavity of the scapula is itself quite shallow and is made deeper by the addition of the glenoid labrum. The glenoid labrum is a ring of cartilaginous fibre attached to the circumference of the cavity. This ring is continuous with the tendon of the biceps brachii above. Spaces [ edit]Significant joint spaces are: The normal glenohumeral space is 4–5 mm. [ 1]The normal subacromial space in shoulder radiographs is 9–10 mm; this space is significantly greater in men, with a slight reduction with age; in middle age, a subacromial space less than 6 mm is pathological.

The extrinsic muscles of the hand are the powerful flexor and extensor muscles of the forearm. These muscles originate outside the hand and insert within the hand. Since they are located and originate on the forearm outside the hand itself, they are called extrinsic which comes from the Latin word extrinsecus meaning \"\"on the outside\"\". There are also small muscles located within the structure of the hand itself. Since these muscles both originate and insert within the hand, they are referred to as intrinsic muscles. The word intrinsic comes from the latin word intrinsecus. The intrinsic muscles of the hand can be further divided into four groups, the thenar, hypothenar, interossei (dorsal and palmar), and lumbrical muscles. [ 1 ] [ 2]The intrinsic muscles that control the thumb, unlike those of the fingers, are actually stronger than the extrinsic thumb muscles.

The deltoids are the thick strong muscles that form the rounded portion of your shoulders covering the joint between the humerus, or upper arm bone, and the scapula, or shoulder blade. The deltoids work with the rotator cuff muscles and the terres major to help move your arms in several directions. Deltoid Anatomy The upper part of the deltoid muscle attaches to the lateral, or outermost, part of the clavicle and the spine of the scapula, which is a large ridge running across the shoulder blade. The lower part of the deltoid attaches to the deltoid tuberosity, which is a bony bump on the upper portion of the humerus. The deltoid is divided into three parts: anterior (front), middle and posterior (back). Each part moves the arm, but in different directions. Arm Abduction Abduction means to move away from the midline, so you abduct your arms at the shoulders when you raise them upward and outward from the sides of your body."

The primary benefit of the ball and socket arrangement is that it allows the hand to be positioned precisely in space, maximizing our ability to function. In terms of functionality, the shoulder might be best described as having a golf ball-on-a-tee design. Observation The shoulder joint is created by the confluence of 3 bony structures: the scapula, humerus and clavicle. These are held together by ligaments and an intricate web of muscles.

Its name is often reported to have derived from the Greek letter Delta (Δ) but it actually derives from the Latin word deltoides which means \"\" triangular in shape or form \"\" and was taken from the shape of the letter delta and the word eidos (oid) meaning shape or form. The deltoid is the principal abductor of the arm at the glenohumeral (shoulder) joint and also flexes and extends the humerus. The deltoid is the largest and probably the most important muscle of the shoulder complex. 6, 5See the The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook Now. The deltoid has three major parts: anterior, middle, and posterior, which, based on their origins can be considered the clavicular, acromial, and scapular divisions. These parts cover the upper (proximal) part of the humerus, converging to a thick tendon to insert on the lateral surface of the humerus bone. All three sections differ in structure and function but work in concert to produce important movements at the shoulder joint. The deltoid is also an important dynamic stabilizer of the glenohumeral joint but this action has not been as extensively studied in its movements. It appears to provide anterior stability by compression of the humeral head against the glenoid fossa during 90° abduction and external rotation."

Definition/Description The glenohumeral joint is the most commonly dislocated joint in the human body and 90% of shoulder dislocations are anterior. The reason for this is that the scapula is oriented about 30 degrees anterior and this to the coronal (frontal) plane of the body. Because of this the glenohumeral joint with the humerus is orienting anterior to the glenoid. [ 1]CDR. Matthew, T. Provencher et al. Described a Hill-Sachs lesion as followed : The Hill-Sachs lesion is a compression fracture of the posterosuperolateral humeral head that occurs in association with anterior instability or dislocation of the glenohumeral joint.

Anatomists use a unified set of terms to describe most of the movements, although other, more specialized terms are necessary for describing the uniqueness of the movements such as those of the hands, feet, and eyes. In general, motion is classified according to the anatomical plane it occurs in. Flexion and extension are examples of angular motions, in which two axes of a joint are brought closer together or moved further apart.

Like other mammals on planet Earth, dogs have a complex skeletal and muscular system designed to support both voluntary and involuntary movements. However, since dogs do not share the same body type as a human, that means it has a different musculoskeletal system than humans. The muscular anatomy of a dog, while serving the same purpose in a dog, differs in structure and function from the muscular system in a human body. Just as the human muscular system is composed of units of tissue connected to the skeletal system, skin, and other muscles, a dog’s muscle anatomy is arranged in a similar fashion. Additionally, both muscular systems use the power of contraction to produce movement."

It may also be used to treat major depression in adults and agitation in children with autism. Abilify is in a class of medications known as atypical antipsychotics. It works by changing the activity of dopamine, one of the neurotransmitters in your brain. The medication was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2002. Abilify Warnings The FDA requires that Abilify carry a black-box warning about the risks associated with the drug’s use among people with dementia. Studies show that older adults with dementia who take antipsychotic medicines such as Abilify may be at an increased risk for death. They may also be at a greater risk for suffering a stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA, or mini-stroke), or other severe side effects. The FDA has not approved Abilify for use in adults with dementia. Additionally, some people taking Abilify have exhibited unusually reckless or compulsive behaviors, such as compulsive gambling, sexual activity, binge eating, or compulsive shopping."

"text": "Home > Prescription Drugs > Abilify > Abilify and Alcohol Abilify and Alcoholby Maria Bogdanovaon April 30, 2012Tweet When used correctly, Abilify is a drug that can help fight the symptoms of mental disorders like bipolar, schizophrenia, autism and major depressive episodes. As with any medication, there can be the risk of side effects, but drinking alcohol while taking Abilify can increase these risks. If you take Abilify and you want to understand the possible risks involved with drinking alcohol while taking this drug, the following information may help you make an educated decision before drinking. It may not be harmful to have an occasional alcoholic drink while on Abilify because it will not necessarily cause an adverse reaction. Alcohol is considered to be a depressant. If you suffer from a mental condition that often causes you depression and you drink alcohol, it runs the risk of potentially making your symptoms worse. If you are taking a medication in order to increase life satisfaction and happiness, drinking alcohol can counteract the medication therefore deeming it useless. If you are serious about helping to regain your mental stability, it is advised to refrain from alcohol consumption. If alcohol is consumed while taking Abilify, know that it is not necessarily cause for concern, although it can intensify possible side effects. If you or someone you love is suffering from dizziness, drowsiness or low blood pressure, these can be signs that Abilify has reacted adversely with alcohol."

( verify)Aripiprazole, sold under the brand name Abilify among others, is an atypical antipsychotic. It is recommended and primarily used in the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. [ 5] Other uses include as an add-on treatment in major depressive disorder, tic disorders, and irritability associated with autism. [ 6] According to a Cochrane review, evidence for the oral form in schizophrenia is not sufficient to determine effects on general functioning. [ 7] Additionally, because many people dropped out of the medication trials before they were completed, the overall strength of the conclusions is low. [ 7]Side effects include neuroleptic malignant syndrome, a movement disorder known as tardive dyskinesia, and high blood sugar in those with diabetes. [ 5] In the elderly there is an increased risk of death. [ 5] It is thus not recommended for use in those with psychosis due to dementia. [ 5] It is pregnancy category C in the United States and category C in Australia, meaning there is possible evidence of harm to the fetus. ["

Or is this just another example of pharmaceutical evergreening? You can download the package insert for Rexulti and Abilify. Evergreening is a tactic used by pharmaceutical companies to capture additional profit when a drug patent has expired. The patent-holder modifies the original drug and then patents the new version. Sometimes, the new version has genuine advantages, but often this practice is motivated by financial incentives. Some controversial examples of pharmaceutical evergreening: Celexa (citalopram) was modified and re-patented as Lexapro (escitalopram)Provigil (modafinil) was modified and re-patented as Nuvigil (armodafinil)Rexulti vs Abilify Verdict Despite the above discussion, we believe that Rexulti is not a case of pharmaceutical evergreening. It has a distinct pharmacologic profile. It has stronger activity at dopamine (D2) receptors as well as 5-HT2A serotonin receptors. Theoretically Rexulti is an improvement on Abilify, but only time well tell whether this prediction is born out."

"text": "Most Prescribed Psychiatric Drugs Monthly (July 2013 – June 2014)Share Pin Reddit Stumble Email A newly released report from research firm IMS Health collected data on the most prescribed drugs in the United States from June 2013 to July 2014. Although the number one drug was Synthroid, a thyroid medication with over 22 million prescriptions, rounding out the top ten most prescribed were Cymbalta (#8), Vyvanse (#9), and Lyrica (#10). The list is interesting because it shows which psychiatric drugs are being prescribed most often. When it comes to psychiatric drugs, most doctors and people like something new. This may be why a relatively newer antidepressant that works as an “SNRI” called Cymbalta is the most prescribed psychiatric drug in the U. S. Additionally it seems as though people are hopping on the Vyvanse bandwagon because it is supposed to be newer and safer than Adderall. Most Prescribed Psychiatric Drugs (July 2013 – June 2014)The list below is narrowed down to a Top 14 list due to the fact that data wasn’t released on more than 100 drugs and of the 100, only 14 happened to be psychiatric. Keep in mind that the numbers recorded below are based on number of monthly prescriptions from July 2013 to June 2014. Understand that the data collected by this research firm may not be 100% accurate, but it does provide us with a good estimation as to which drugs are filling the most prescriptions. If you are interested in reading about whether prescription numbers were on par with biggest profits, read about the top 12 selling psychiatric drugs from July 2013 to June 2014.1.

Show More Uses Side Effects Precautions Interactions Overdose Images Uses Aripiprazole is used to treat certain mental/ mood disorders (such as bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, Tourette's disorder, and irritability associated with autistic disorder). It may also be used in combination with other medication to treat depression. Aripiprazole is known as an antipsychotic drug (atypical type). It works by helping to restore the balance of certain natural chemicals in the brain (neurotransmitters). This medication can decrease hallucinations and improve your concentration. It helps you to think more clearly and positively about yourself, feel less nervous, and take a more active part in everyday life. Aripiprazole can treat severe mood swings and decrease how often mood swings occur. How to use Abilify Read the Medication Guide and, if available, the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start taking aripiprazole and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist. Take this medication by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor, usually once daily."

"text": "Abiotic Oil Formation Though the current accepted theory of oil formation involves the slow transformation of animal and plant matter into hydrocarbon (the biotic or biogenic theory), it is not the only theory that has been put forth. As early as the 16th century, one theory of the origin of oil claimed that it resulted from deep carbon deposits that have been around far longer than life on this planet. The theory, which came to be known as the abiotic oil formation (AOF) theory, was largely forgotten until rather recently when a few people (some of them scientists) revived it. The newest version of the AOF theory states that oil arises from inorganic processes that occur deep within the core or lower mantle of the Earth. Here, they say, oil is formed and then percolates up through cracks and porous rock to fill the reservoirs that humans tap to get oil. If this claim is true, then oil may not be nearly as limited in quantity as proponents of the biotic theory claim. This would mean oil is more “renewable” than we have been led to believe. Origins The AOF theory has been championed for a number of reasons, but many current proponents point to the presence of methane on comets, meteors, and other lifeless planets as evidence that organic material is not needed to produce petroleum. Other supporters point to other clues about the origins of oil such as the distribution of metals in oil, the association of hydrocarbons with helium, and the presence of oil deposits in large-scale structures rather than patchy sedimentary deposits. These, proponents claim, are all reasons to believe that oil does not come from plant and animal matter, but rather from some natural chemical process involving inorganic materials."

Let teachers know you need one by requesting it Request a video 0Help us find a video Key Questions What are abiotic factors in an ecosystem? Answer: Abiotic factor examples include temperature, wind speed, and humidity. Explanation: An abiotic factor is any component that is not a living organism that affects the organisms in the ecosystem. Abiotic factors related to climate include temperature, wind speed, humidity, amount of sunlight, and shade. Abiotic factors can also be in the soil and include things such as p H and mineral content. Their affect may be indirect. Wind speed could determine how fruits and seeds are dispersed.. And p H of soil would determine whether recycling of nutrients can occur. Abiotic factors would either help a plant or animal survive or hinder it. On the other hand, biotic factors are factors related to living organisms and include animals, trees, and molds."

The following video covers the biotic and abiotic factors that influence most ecosystems, and introduces key vocabulary relevant to ecology: This is a good Slide Share presentation that covers the definition and examples of biotic and abiotic factors in an ecosystem: Relevance The scope of abiotic and biotic factors spans across the entire biosphere, or global sum of all ecosystems. Such factors can have relevance for an individual within a species, its community or an entire population. For instance, disease is a biotic factor affecting the survival of an individual and its community. Temperature is an abiotic factor with the same relevance. Some factors have greater relevance for an entire ecosystem. Abiotic and biotic factors combine to create a system or, more precisely, an ecosystem, meaning a community of living and nonliving things considered as a unit."

"text": "\"Home »Nature Abiotic Things in the Deciduous Forest By Debra Durkee; Updated April 25, 2017Abiotic factors are those that are not living but which still have an impact on the ecosystem and the living elements of that system. A change in the abiotic factors of the ecosystem can have a profound influence on the entire ecosystem, for the good or for worse. In the deciduous forest, everything from the smallest plant to the largest bear relies on these forces. Wind The wind is a highly variable, nonliving factor that has a great impact on those that live in the deciduous forest. Strong winds fell branches and trees, beginning the decomposition process that returns nutrients captured in plants back to the soil. More mild, less noticeable winds are no less important. Plants rely on winds to spread pollen, fertilizing nearby plants. But winds also pick up particles from exposed soil, spreading not only dirt, but any bacteria or fungal microorganisms that may be present in the soil. Long periods of strong winds can even be responsible for spreading disease through a forest. Water Water is nonliving, and plants and animals rely on it for survival."

I did not have room to properly define and explain what the term means. Today I will explain what Abiotic diseases are and why so many do not understand their plants. “Plant diseases generally are classified as either biotic (caused by a pathogenic parasite) or abiotic (caused by environmental conditions such wind, water, and temperature, or genetic disorders). More importantly, abiotic diseases also may cause symptoms that may be confused with symptoms caused by biotic diseases or pests.” ( 1)Some of the common abiotic diseases include water stress (surplus or too little), hail damage, animals, herbicide damage, and genetic disorders. Don Janssen, in his article “Abiotic Diseases” says: “Hot weather, inadequate moisture, drifting of herbicides, freezing temperatures, transplant shock, compacted soils, mower injury, and lack of nutrients are examples of factors that can cause abiotic disease problems. Abiotic diseases are cause by factors other than living (biotic) agents. ”He adds: “To diagnose abiotic disease problems it is important to evaluate the characteristics of the site, past weather condition, and the care practices. In some cases, more than one abiotic factor may contribute to the poor health of a plant."

Abiotic factors play a major role in the environment and the abiotic factors that are specifically in the Sahara Desert are temperature, bodies of water, rainfall, and soil. TEMPERATURE The Sahara Desert was deemed as a climatic desert about 5 million years ago. Ever since the Pliocene Epoch, the general climate of the Sahara has become much more humid and dry. Over time, the surface reflectivity of the Sahara has increased, and the evapotranspiration (the process of transferring water from the land to the atmosphere through the evaporation and transpiration of soil and plants) has reduced. The dry subtropical climate in the north and the dry tropical climate in the south are the most apparent throughout the Sahara. The dry subtropical climate is filled with cool winters and hot summers, whereas the dry tropical climate is filled with a dry mild winter, a hot and humid springtime, and a rainy season in the summer. In the dry subtropical regions up north, the annual daily temperature average 20 degrees celsius and the winters average around 13 degrees celsius. The summers get quite hot, but the temperatures remain relatively consistent throughout the entire year. A common aspect of the Sahara are the breezy winds that carry through in mid-spring, which are nice enough to cool off any hot day."

Sunlight, soil, water, and pollution, for example, are all important abiotic factors of an environment that affect life. The biotic environment, on the other hand, is composed of all the living organisms in an ecosystem, and includes factors such as disease, predators, prey, and human activity. Life depends on both of these environments for survival. Light from the sun, an abiotic factor, makes life possible in almost all ecosystems. Green plants take solar energy and convert it into chemical energy through photosynthesis. As animals eat the plants, the energy moves through the biotic environment and is eventually expended as heat. This basic flow of energy shows how closely abiotic and biotic components are linked. This cycle is called an open system because it relies on the sun, a source outside the Earth. Organisms also need basic elements, such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus."

"text": "\"Treatment of Epithelial Basement Membrane Dystrophy With Manual Superficial Keratectomy Leslie T. L. Pham, MD; Kenneth M. Goins, MD; John E. Sutphin, MD; Michael D. Wagoner, MD, Ph DPosted February 22, 2010Epithelial basement membrane dystrophy (EBMD) is the most common type of corneal dystrophy, affecting 2% of the population. [ 1] Although the majority of patients remain asymptomatic or experience minor episodic subjective discomfort, about 10% will eventually complain of recurrent erosions and/or visual disturbances. [ 1,2] The clinical course is often biphasic: Recurrent epithelial erosions predominate in the early phase, and visual disturbances occur in the later phase. The pathophysiologic hallmark of EBMD is an abnormality in the formation and maintenance of the epithelial basement membrane adhesion complex of the corneal epithelium, a phenomenon that accounts for the recurrent erosions that are associated with this disorder. Originally described by Hansen [3] over a century ago, and further characterized by Thygeson [4] a half century later, recurrent erosions are acute disruptions of the corneal epithelium, which classically occur upon awakening and are associated with severe, sharp pain that may be transient or last for several hours or days, depending upon the surface area of epithelial sloughing. In severe cases, the erosion syndrome may be associated with considerable morbidity and occupational disability. Although erosions may occur in association with prior corneal trauma, EBMD is the most common cause of this disorder. Initially, there may be few clinical signs associated with EBMD; however, a history of recurrent erosions should suggest this diagnosis, especially if they are bilateral and occur in multiple sites. With continued cycles of epithelial breakdown and aborted efforts at the development of a stable epithelial basement membrane adhesion complex, morphological changes eventually develop, which lead to the classic \"\"map-dot-fingerprint\"\" epithelial and subepithelial findings that characterize this disorder (Figures 1-3) [2]. Inadequate formation of hemidesmosomes by the basal epithelial cells results in compensatory aberrant regeneration and duplication of the epithelial basement membrane, a change that is clinically manifested by the \"\"fingerprint\"\" lines. The deposition of fibrogranular material below and above the abnormal basement membrane is responsible for the \"\"map\"\" and \"\"dot\"\" findings, respectively."

We examined the clinical usefulness of this study in a pediatric population with an unknown source of hematuria. Materials and Methods Children 12 years old or younger referred for evaluation of asymptomatic microscopic hematuria exhibiting 4 or more RBCs per high power field were enrolled in this study. Patients provided a first morning urine sample subjected to refined urinalysis for RBC morphology. Standard evaluation of patients was performed until a final diagnosis of the hematuria source was identified. Results A total of 44 patients completed the study. Refined urinalysis revealed pure dysmorphic RBCs in 22 patients, pure isomorphic RBCs in 8 and mixed isomorphic/dysmorphic RBCs in 14. The presence of dysmorphic RBCs correctly predicted a glomerulotubular source of hematuria in 29 of 36 patients (sensitivity 83%, specificity 81%), while the presence of isomorphic RBCs predicted a uroepithelial source of hematuria in 2 of 8 patients (sensitivity 25%, specificity 22%).

A semen analysis also known as a sperm count measures the quality, the amount, number, and other paramenters of semen a man produces. A man can only find out through a semen analysis if he is fertile or not The semen analysis helps determine whether a man is fertile and is usually one of the first tests done to help determine whether a man has a problem fathering a baby. More than 40% of couples who are unable to have children (infertile) will be infertile because of his sperm problems. The sperm count should be the #1 fertility test done when you evaluate your fertility. It is obtained through masturbation, it's nonivasive and it guarantees the person getting tested an orgasm. What a great deal!According to WHO World Health Association criteria these are the major parameters a sperm count checks for are: Volume (over 2 cc is normal)Sperm count (over 20 million per cc or 40 million total is normal).

"text": "How I Work up the Patient with Thrombocytosis By Ayalew Tefferi, MDMarch 15, 2012Tweet this page Thrombocytosis is defined as a platelet count greater than 400 × 10 9 /L. In routine clinical practice, thrombocytosis is much more likely to be reactive (> 80% of cases) than primary. Reactive thrombocytosis is usually associated with infections, inflammation, trauma, hemolysis, metastatic cancer, the postsplenectomy state, or iron deficiency anemia. Causes of primary thrombocytosis include myeloproliferative neoplasms, myelodysplastic syndromes, myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm overlap syndromes, and other myeloid malignancies. Congenital thrombocytosis is extremely rare and sometimes associated with germline mutations of thrombopoietin or its receptor ( MPL ). In managing the patient with thrombocytosis, one must first distinguish reactive from primary thrombocytosis. The presence of acute or subacute infection, a connective tissue disorder, vasculitis, hemolysis, active bleeding, recent surgery, history of splenectomy, or iron deficiency anemia favors the diagnosis of reactive thrombocytosis. The presence of chronic thrombocytosis, thrombohemorrhagic complications, microvascular symptoms, or splenomegaly favors the diagnosis of primary thrombocytosis. However, clinical impression often requires confirmation through laboratory testing, which is also necessary to distinguish among the different causes of primary thrombocytosis (including essential thrombocythemia) (see diagnostic workup in Fig. 1). Below, I provide a stepwise approach to the laboratory evaluation of thrombocytosis."

Below you will find some valuable information about MDS, and we encourage you to learn more about these syndromes, and about what you can do to help. WHAT IS MDS? Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) are a group of diverse bone marrow disorders in which the bone marrow does not produce enough healthy blood cells. MDS is often referred to as a “bone marrow failure disorder”. MDS is primarily a disease of the elderly (most patients are older than age 65), but MDS can affect younger patients as well. To help you better understand MDS, it might be helpful to first consider some basics about bone marrow and blood. The bone marrow functions as a factory that manufactures three kinds of blood cells: red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets."

"text": "Sperm Morphology -The importance of being in shape. The shape (morphology) of a sperm is an important determinant of its fertilizability. The egg is enclosed in a protein coat called the zona pellucida (ZP). The ZP performs many functions, but its first task is to select which sperm will fertilize the egg. The ZP bases its selection on the shape of the sperm head. In order to pass through the ZP, the sperm must be vigorously motile and the sperm head must be a symmetrical, oval shape of the appropriate size. Sperm possessing heads that are irregular in shape, too round, too long, too big or too small are prevented from passing through the ZP. It turns out theres a pretty good reason for this. Abnormally shaped sperm often contain abnormal DNA. That is, an abnormally shaped sperm may be short a chromosome or have an extra chromosome or the DNA is packed into the sperm head in such a way so that, if that abnormally shaped sperm were to enter the egg, the DNA would get all tangled up when it tries to form chromosomes inside the egg."

"text": "By Todd Nippoldt, Mayo Clinic, Malpani Infertility Clinic What is sperm morphology? Sperm morphology, or teratozoospermia is the shape and size of sperm. The head should be oval in shape, have a mid-section, and have a long, straight tail. If sperm have a double tail, no tail, or a head that is crooked, misshapen, has double heads, or too large, it is considered abnormal, and unable to successfully penetrate an egg. Sperm morphology is routinely tested in the male infertility semen analysis. Most men have a large percentage of abnormal sperm morphology, with only 4-15% of their sperm being considered normal. What is important is that that 4-15% has good vitality and motility as well as the overall volume of semen, sperm concentration, and sperm count. Men with abnormal sperm are still perfectly capable of fathering children; it just may take longer than normal to do so. If there is a deficiency in these areas, doctors do not necessarily act immediately, but rather sit back and see if the situation improves on its own, repeating the test four to six weeks later to look for improvements. If the second round of test results still shows abnormalities, additional tests may be required to see if there are underlying issues causing the abnormalities."

Depolarization is followed by repolarization and the sequence of depolarization [ activation-and-contraction [ repolarization repeats itself to generate rhythmical heart beats.

The shape of sperm is a reflection of proper sperm development (spermatogenesis) in the testicles. Men with defective sperm production may produce a high percentage of abnormal sperm. There are many factors that can lead to the formation of sperm with an abnormal morphology. This can be caused by genetic traits, exposure to toxic chemicals, increased testicular temperature and infection. Poor sperm development can lead to teratospermia (also known abnormal sperm morphology or teratozoospermia) a condition characterized by the presence of a large percentage of sperm with abnormal shape in a man’s ejaculate. This abnormal sperm morphology can negatively impact the chances of conception.

"text": "\"How to Identify ST-Elevation Imposters in the Field When the classic approach to ECG interpretation isn’t enough Sun, Jul 31, 2011 By Colin Arnold, BA, MICPChest pain complaint might be one of the most common calls that EMS providers face. It’s also one of the vaguest. Thanks to education about “heart attacks,” the public has learned to recognize chest pain early and to call often. Often, EMS providers can clear patients of any cardiac risk by taking a good history and doing a thorough physical assessment. Not all chest pain patients require a 12-lead ECG; of those that do, our ECG assessment is often a quick look for “ST elevation” and a review of the computer interpretation of the leads, and it always includes a nagging in the back of our minds to “treat the patient, not the monitor.” The 12-lead ECG is a staple of modern EMS care and has been implemented in the field with a broad spectrum of training, from those who learned it as new paramedics to those who were trained after years of working without it. Most of us know that ST elevation is bad; remember that there’s something to fear in ST depression, and admit that inverted T waves are just plain confusing. Somewhere, dusty and long pushed to the back of our memories, is something about significant Q waves and something called “R-prime.” So we take a look at the ST-segment, argue about what is—and isn’t—elevation, decide on a course of action and slide our ECG printout in with the rest of our paperwork. After all, even emergency physicians agree that the ECG is helpful in supporting a good clinical assessment, not replacing it."

BAOS is an inherited condition in the cavalier King Charles spaniel. The breed is pre-disposed to it, due to the comparatively short length of the cavalier's head and a compressed upper jaw **. * BAOS is also referred to as brachycephalic airway disease (BAD) and brachycephalic airway syndrome (BAS) and even brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS). ** Until 2011, there had been some dispute among researchers as to whether the cavalier King Charles spaniel is a brachycephalic breed or a mesaticephalic (or mesocephalic) breed. However, in a 2011 German study, the researchers concluded that the CKCS was brachycephalic but that it had a wider braincase in relation to length than in other brachycephalic breeds. The term \"\"brachycephalic\"\" or \"\"brachiocephalic\"\" means short-nosed and refers to dogs with short muzzles, noses, and mouths. \"\" Brachy\"\" means short and \"\"cephalic\"\" means head. The throat and breathing passages in brachycephalic dogs often are undersized or flattened. The head's soft tissues are not proportionate to the shortened nature of the skull, and the excess tissues tend to increase resistance to the flow of air through the upper airway (nostrils, sinuses, pharynx and larynx)."

The Atrial Waveform – Relationship to the P wave Atrial depolarisation proceeds sequentially from right to left, with the right atrium activated before the left atrium. The right and left atrial waveforms summate to form the P wave. The first 1/3 of the P wave corresponds to right atrial activation, the final 1/3 corresponds to left atrial activation; the middle 1/3 is a combination of the two. In most leads (e.g. lead II), the right and left atrial waveforms move in the same direction, forming a monophasic P wave. However, in lead V1 the right and left atrial waveforms move in opposite directions. This produces a biphasic P wave with the initial positive deflection corresponding to right atrial activation and the subsequent negative deflection denoting left atrial activation. This separation of right and left atrial electrical forces in lead V1 means that abnormalities affecting each individual atrial waveform can be discerned in this lead. Elsewhere, the overall shape of the P wave is used to infer the atrial abnormality. Normal P-wave Morphology – Lead IIThe right atrial depolarisation wave (brown) precedes that of the left atrium (blue)."

"text": "Blood in Urine with Pain or No Pain Explainedby Clinical Laboratory Scientist · January 12, 2016How to read urine test results which contain blood in urine, and how to understand the clinical importance of red blood cells in urine analysis, learn how to match the possible cause with your signs and symptoms before going to a doctor. this article is about what does blood in urine means for different human ages and genders. Is there certainly blood in your urine? Before continue reading, it is worth considering whether you have eaten beets recently, where the urine can be colored in pink and causing concern which is superfluous. Some medications can also convert urine color to brown or red, such as antibiotics, and nitrofurantoin. Also, make sure that the blood is coming from the organ actually the source of the urine and not the vagina (if you are a woman) or another location around it. What does it mean when blood cells appear in urine analysis test? The presence of RBCs in the urine is associated with a degree of damage to membranes of interior organ or damage of some blood cells itself. Where Blood in Urine Might Come From? Blood cells in urine may come from kidney component or vascular injury within the genitourinary tract (include in males the Bladder, Prostate, Urethra, Penis, and Testis and in females the kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra, and uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes and vagina.)."

Anemia is associated with a decrease in red blood cells, or hemoglobin concentration. Ways of classifying anemia depend on the size and hemoglobin content of the red blood cells (morphological) or the mechanism (pathophysiological). Anemia If you have ever uttered the phrase, 'I'm so tired!' to a friend or coworker, I am sure your comment was met with a sympathetic pat on the back. We all live hectic lives and very few of us escape the occasional bout with fatigue. However, utter this same phrase to your doctor and you might be met with the prick of a needle as your doctor performs a blood test to determine if you have one of the most common causes of fatigue, known as anemia. Anemia results when there is a deficiency of red blood cells or a decreased amount of hemoglobin. This diminishes the blood's ability to carry oxygen and leads to symptoms like fatigue, lightheadedness, and shortness of breath. In this lesson we will look at how disorders associated with anemia are classified, but classification of anemia is a pretty broad topic, so it will be helpful for us to take a moment to understand a couple of terms."

"text": "Pre-excitation Syndromesby Edward Burns, Last updated January 5, 2018Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome First described in 1930 by Louis Wolff, John Parkinson and Paul Dudley White. Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) Syndrome is a combination of the presence of a congenital accessory pathway and episodes of tachyarrhythmia. Incidence 0.1 – 3.0 per 1000. Associated with a small risk of sudden cardiac death. Pre-Excitation & Accessory Pathways Pre-excitation refers to early activation of the ventricles due to impulses bypassing the AV node via an accessory pathway. Accessory pathways, also known as bypass tracts, are abnormal conduction pathways formed during cardiac development and can exist in a variety of anatomical locations and in some patients there may be multiple pathways In WPW the accessory pathway is often referred to as the Bundle of Kent, or atrioventricular bypass tract. An accessory pathway can conduct impulses either anterograde, towards the ventricle, retrograde, away from the ventricle, or in both directions. The majority of pathways allow conduction in both directions, with retrograde only conduction occurring in 15% of cases, and antegrade only conduction rarely seen. The direction of conduction affects the appearance of the ECG in sinus rhythm and during tachyarrhythmias. Tachyarrythmia can be facilitated by the formation of a reentry circuit involving the accessory pathway, termed atrioventricular reentry tachycardias (AVRT)."

"text": "Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD)What is PGD? Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is a reproductive technology used with an IVF cycle to increase the potential for a successful pregnancy and delivery. It is a genetic test on cells removed from embryos, to help select the best embryo (s) for pregnancy or to be free of a genetic disease. Who should consider PGD? PGD may be considered in all IVF cycles; however, those who might benefit most from this test are couples at increased risk for chromosome abnormalities or specific genetic diseases. This includes women who have had several miscarriages, or who have had a prior pregnancy with a chromosome abnormality. Women over 38 years of age and men with some types of sperm abnormalities may also produce embryos with higher rates of chromosome abnormalities. In addition, if a person carries a rearrangement of the chromosomes, PGD can identify which embryos have a normal amount of chromosomal material. When there is a 25% or 50% chance to have a child affected with a specific genetic disease, PGD can be designed to identify which embryos are affected, unaffected, or a carrier (if applicable) for that disease. Then, only embryos without the disease are transferred to the uterus to attempt pregnancy."

Flowing generally southwestwards, it is a major left-bank tributary of the River Severn, of which it is the easternmost tributary system. It is also known as the Warwickshire Avon or Shakespeare's Avon, to distinguish it from several other Rivers Avon in the United Kingdom. Beginning in Northamptonshire, the river flows through or adjoining the counties of Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire, near the Cotswold Hills area. Notable towns it flows through include Warwick, Rugby, Stratford-upon-Avon, Evesham, Pershore and Tewkesbury, where it joins the Severn. It has traditionally been divided since 1719 into the Lower Avon, below Evesham, and the Upper Avon, from Evesham to above Stratford-upon-Avon. Improvements to aid navigation began in 1635, and a series of locks and weirs made it possible to reach Stratford, and to within 4 miles (6 km) of Warwick. The Upper Avon was tortuous and prone to flooding, and was abandoned as a means of navigation in 1877. The Lower Avon struggled on, and never really closed, although it was only navigable below Pershore by 1945."

"text": "\"Free Medical Terminology Flash Cards: Suffixes Suffixes end words but are often where definitions begin in medical terminology. After determining the meaning of the suffix, the prefix is usually defined next, followed by the root word meaning. Suffixes may be used to to make a word either an adjective or a noun. Depending on how the root word ends, a combining vowel may be attached between the root word and the suffix. A suffix will have the same meaning when added to any root word. For instance, -plasty means surgical repair, so rhinoplasty would denote surgical repair of the nose while angioplasty means surgical repair of a blood vessel. Some suffixes may have the same or similar meanings. For example, -al, -ary, ical, and -oid all may mean \"\"pertaining to,\"\" but each may be used with particular root words in practice. Some suffixes that have the same meaning may be interchanged with other suffixes with the same meaning in certain circumstances.

Abraxane prolonged the time to cancer progression by nearly seven months, compared with standard Taxotere, says study head William Gradishar, MD, director of breast medical oncology at the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center of Northwestern University In Chicago. \"\" The findings support the use of Abraxane as first-line therapy for women with metastatic breast cancer ,\"\" he tells Web MD. The study was published in the May 26 issue of the Journal of Clinical Oncology. At the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) here this week, breast cancer specialists like Jennifer K. Litton, MD, of the University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, told Web MD that the data support what they have been doing in their practices. Abraxane is approved to treat metastatic breast cancer after other treatments have failed, but more and more doctors are using it as a first treatment for breast cancer that has spread, Litton says. Continue Reading Belowyou might like\"\"Abraxane is very well-tolerated, with fewer side effects [than Taxotere]. \"\"Taxotere and Abraxane are both members of a class of drugs known as taxanes. The major difference: Taxotere needs to be dissolved in a chemical solvent to create a liquid that can be injected into the bloodstream, Litton says. \"\" Many people can have a severe allergic reaction to the chemical solvent that is used with Taxotere. Also, you may have to premedicate patients with steroids, which have their own set of problems such as fluid retention and poor blood sugar control in diabetics,\"\" Litton says."

The pancreas is a gland that normally makes juices that help break down food and produces insulin and other hormones. Pancreatic cancer usually doesn't cause symptoms right away, but can cause yellowing of the skin and eyes, pain in the abdomen and back, weight loss, and fatigue. Some risk factors for developing pancreatic cancer include smoking, long-term diabetes, chronic pancreatitis, and certain hereditary disorders. Because pancreatic cancer is often found late and it spreads quickly, it can be hard to treat. Possible treatments include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.

Go to: Abstract Paclitaxel is an antineoplastic agent derived from the bark of the western yew, Taxus brevifolia, with a broad spectrum of activity. Because paclitaxel promotes microtubule assembly, neurotoxicity is one of its side effects. Clinical use of paclitaxel has led to peripheral neuropathy and this has been demonstrated to be dependent upon the dose administered, the duration of the infusion, and the schedule of administration. Vehicles in the drug formulation, for example Cremophor in Taxol®, have been investigated for their potential to induce peripheral neuropathy. A variety of neuroprotective agents have been tested in animal and clinical studies to prevent paclitaxel neurotoxicity. Recently, novel paclitaxel formulations have been developed to minimize toxicities. This review focuses on recent advances in the etiology of paclitaxel-mediated peripheral neurotoxicity, and discusses current and ongoing strategies for amelioration of this side effect."

"text": "What is chemotherapy? Chemotherapy is cancer treatment that uses drugs to kill cancer cells by preventing them from growing and dividing. These drugs are systemic treatments, meaning that the drugs travel through the bloodstream and damage cancer cells throughout the body. Unfortunately, chemotherapy can also damage some healthy cells and cause side effects. Chemotherapy may shrink and/or prevent the growth of pancreatic tumors. What are the different types of chemotherapy? There are currently four chemotherapy drugs approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of pancreatic cancer: ABRAXANE® (albumin-bound paclitaxel), Gemzar® (gemcitabine), 5-FU (fluorouracil) and ONIVYDE® (irinotecan liposome injection). Gemzar® (gemcitabine) was approved in 1996 for the treatment of unresectable pancreatic cancer. Studies have also shown that there is a benefit to using Gemzar® after surgery. This is called adjuvant therapy."

These caps and scalp cooling systems may help some women keep some or quite a bit of their hair during chemotherapy. Cold caps and scalp cooling systems work by narrowing the blood vessels beneath the skin of the scalp, reducing the amount of chemotherapy medicine that reaches the hair follicles. With less chemotherapy medicine in the follicles, the hair may be less likely to fall out. The cold also decreases the activity of the hair follicles, which slows down cell division and makes the follicles less affected by the chemotherapy medicine. During each chemotherapy session, you wear the caps or scalp cooling system for:20 to 50 minutes beforeduringaftereach chemotherapy session (the amount of time you wear the cap after the chemotherapy session depends on the type of chemotherapy you’re getting). Cold caps and scalp cooling systems are slightly different. Cold caps are similar to ice packs. Kept in a special freezer before they’re worn, cold caps thaw out during a chemotherapy infusion session and need to be replaced with a new cap about every 30 minutes. Women usually rent the caps and the special freezer."

"text": "Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer Chemotherapy (chemo) is treatment with cancer-killing drugs that may be given intravenously (injected into your vein) or by mouth. The drugs travel through the bloodstream to reach cancer cells in most parts of the body. Occasionally, chemo may be given directly into the spinal fluid which surrounds the brain and spinal cord. When is chemotherapy used? Not all women with breast cancer will need chemo, but there are several situations in which chemo may be recommended: After surgery (adjuvant chemotherapy): Adjuvant chemo is used to try to kill any cancer cells that might have been left behind or have spread but can't be seen, even on imaging tests. If these cells were allowed to grow, they could form new tumors in other places in the body. Adjuvant chemo can lower the risk of breast cancer coming back. Before surgery (neoadjuvant chemotherapy): Neoadjuvant chemo can be used to try to shrink the tumor so it can be removed with less extensive surgery. Because of this, neoadjuvant chemo is often used to treat cancers that are too big to be removed by surgery at the time of diagnosis (called locally advanced cancers ). Also, by giving chemo before the tumor is removed, doctors can better see how the cancer responds to it."

The existing treatment guidelines for patients with localized MBC include surgery, radiotherapy, and regional chemotherapy. The European School of Oncology-Metastatic Breast Cancer Task Force addressed the management of these patients in its first consensus recommendations published in 2007. The Task Force endorsed the possibility of a more aggressive and multidisciplinary approach for patients with oligometastatic disease, stressing also the need for clinical trials in this patient population.

With resistant strains of disease, genetic differences in patients and the requirement for more effective (yet less damaging) treatment options, modern medicine is beginning to change its approach. With more attention paid towards personalized medicine, attempts at fewer side effects and ongoing research into gene therapy and immunotherapy, we are now seeing a pronounced shift. One method gaining a lot of attention is combination therapy. What is Combination Therapy? Combination therapy (or polytherapy) is a broad term for the use of multiple medications or therapies, in order to fight the same condition. While it typically denotes the use of two or more drugs, it can also include immunotherapy, non-medical therapies – including psychological therapy – and other means of therapy or treatment. The practice may not be new but we have seen a very large increase in the number of approved and researched combination therapies, over the past decade. With many doctors, oncologists, and other medical professionals recommending combination therapies for a large number of diseases and conditions, it is important to know how this approach can aid in treatment and recovery.

Fertility after chemotherapy depends on two things: your age and the types and doses of chemotherapy medicines you get. Your age: As every woman ages, her ovaries produce fewer fertile eggs. When you go into menopause, your ovaries stop making fertile eggs. Women who are treated for cancer younger than age 30 have the best chance of becoming pregnant after chemotherapy. Overall, the younger you are, the more likely it is your ovaries will produce fertile eggs after chemotherapy. The closer you are to menopause (the average age is 51), the more likely it is that you'll be in menopause after chemotherapy and won't be able to become pregnant. Women who are 40 or older when they get chemotherapy are more likely to be in menopause after chemotherapy. The types and doses of chemotherapy drugs you get: We know that certain chemotherapy medicines are more likely than others to cause infertility, including Cytoxan (chemical name: cyclophosphamide).

The most common symptoms are: Pain (may be there all the time or come and go, like shooting or stabbing pain)Burning Tingling (“pins and needles” feeling)Loss of feeling (can be numbness or just less ability to sense pressure, touch, heat, or cold)Trouble using your fingers to pick up or hold things; dropping things Balance problems Trouble with tripping or stumbling while walking Pressure or temperature may hurt more than usual (mostly cold; this is called cold sensitivity)Shrinking muscles Muscle weakness Trouble swallowing Constipation Trouble passing urine Blood pressure changes Decreased or no reflexes CIPN (Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy) can cause severe pain and can affect your ability to do things like walk, write, button your shirt, or pick up a coin. From the website of the American Cancer Society Chemo (chemotherapy drugs) travels through the whole body, and certain types of chemo can damage different nerves. Symptoms tend to start farthest away from the head, but move in closer over time. In most cases, people will notice chemo-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) symptoms in the feet, then later on in the hands. Symptoms may start in the toes, but move on to the ankles and legs."

"text": "B lue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessee Medical Policy Manual Paclitaxel (Protein-Bound)NDC CODE (S)68817-0134-XX Abraxane 100 MG SUSR (CELGENE CORP)DESCRIPTIONPaclitaxel is a natural product with antitumor activity. Obtained from Taxus media or Taxus baccata, a variety of the Western yew tree, it is highly lipophilic and insoluble in water. Paclitaxel is an anti-microtubule agent which induces abnormal arrays or “bundles” of microtubules during the cell cycle and inhibits vital interphase and mitotic cellular functions. By reformulating paclitaxel as albumin-bound nanoparticles, the protein-bound paclitaxel has improved solubility over conventional paclitaxel which requires the use of toxic solvents such as polyoxyethylated castor oil and ethanol in its production. This allows infusion of the agent to be made in a shorter time, reduces the risk of hypersensitivity reactions and eliminates the need for premedication with dexamethasone, diphenhydramine, and cimetidine. It is important to note that protein-bound paclitaxel is not a substitute for conventional paclitaxel and should not be used with other paclitaxel formulations. It has been proven that protein-bound paclitaxel does not have the identical biochemical systemic reaction as paclitaxel. REFER TO DECISION SUPPORT TREEPOLICYPaclitaxel (protein-bound) for the treatment of the following is considered medically necessary if the medical appropriateness criteria are met. ( See Medical Appropriateness below. ) B ladder cancer/ urothelial carcinoma Breast cancer M elanoma Non-small cell lung cancer Ovarian cancer P ancreatic adenocarcinoma Paclitaxel (protein-bound) for the treatment of other conditions/diseases is considered investigational."

These combinations are known as chemotherapy regimens. In early stage breast cancer, standard chemotherapy regimens lower the risk of the cancer coming back. In advanced breast cancer, chemotherapy regimens make the cancer shrink or disappear in about 30-60% of people treated. Keep in mind that every cancer responds differently to chemotherapy. Standard chemotherapy regimens include: AT: Adriamycin and Taxotere AC ± T: Adriamycin and Cytoxan, with or without Taxol or Taxotere CMF: Cytoxan, methotrexate, and fluorouracil CEF: Cytoxan, Ellence, and fluorouracil FAC: fluorouracil, Adriamycin, and Cytoxan CAF: Cytoxan, Adriamycin, and fluorouracil (The FAC and CAF regimens use the same medicines but use different doses and frequencies)TAC: Taxotere, Adriamycin, and Cytoxan GET: Gemzar, Ellence, and Taxol Depending on the characteristics of the cancer, a targeted therapy medicine, such as Herceptin (chemical name: trastuzumab), may be used in combination with some chemotherapy regimens. For example, the TCH regimen includes Taxotere, Herceptin, and carboplatin. Your doctor may talk about certain groups of chemotherapy medicines: Anthracyclines are chemically similar to an antibiotic. Anthracyclines damage the genetic material of cancer cells, which makes the cells die. Adriamycin, Ellence, and daunorubicin are anthracyclines."

Austrian Road Safety Board, 2004; National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 2006What ABS adds to motorcycle braking As any rider knows, stopping a motorcycle isn't as simple as stopping a car. Most bikes have separate brake controls for the front and rear wheels, and either wheel can lock up during hard braking. On a car, a lockup might result in a skid. On a motorcycle, it often means a serious fall."

"text": "It was little surprise when, at the conclusion of the 2015 Harley-Davidson press intro in Sonoma, California, I decided I liked the CVO Road Glide Ultra best. One glance at the specifications gave a hint why, and confirmed my taste for the finer things in life: The MSRP is $39,649. Yes, you read that right. And no, the subtitle to this story isn’t a typo; it’s a play on words. Because when you add it up (get it? ), you could damn near buy two regular Road Glides for the price of one special-edition CVO. What makes this thing worth $351 shy of $40K? Let's start with a little history: When Harley revised its touring lineup for 2014 under the Project Rushmore heading, the Road Glide went missing for one year, returning with a new look for 2015. The main improvement is a new wind tunnel-tested shark-nose fairing with triple Splitstream vents. Lighting was improved with Dual Daymaker Reflective LED headlamps, while the sound system was upgraded to a Boom!"

When most of us daydream about motorcycle touring and hitting the open road for places and experiences unknown, images of iconic Electra Glides, Road Glides and Gold Wings are usually up front in the picture. For good reason, the motorcycles we tend to flock to for the long haul are large, stable, and equipped with ample storage space. Fairings and windshields not only protect riders from weather but reduce fatigue by blocking the 60-,70- whatnot-mph wind. Throw in a comfy seat, and maybe an audio system and all that’s stopping you from the Grand American Adventure is time and cash. No real problem there. But, what if all of that bodywork, upper and lower fairings and assorted covers, geegaws and doodads are obscuring your view of the complete and total scene?"

Whether it’s chopped, bobbed, or bored, metric to ‘Merican, he rides ‘em all. Check out the all-new Polaris Slingshot three-wheeler in action in our 2015 Polaris Slingshot First Ride video. It looks like something out of Michael Bay’s subconscious – projector-beam headlights as eyes, its futuristic bodywork angular and edgy, with wide-set wheels and low-profile rubber setting a muscular stance. A dorsal fin rises between two roll bars, the machine’s truncated tail showcasing a hefty coil-over shock and stout single-sided swingarm. In a sense Polaris’ three-wheeled 2015 Slingshot is a transformer, part car, part motorcycle, a sophisticated machine with an Electronic Stability Program (ESP), traction control and ABS, the sum of its parts aimed at a riding experience that raises heart rates and adrenalin levels. And Type-A personalities are definitely on the radar of Polaris’ marketing team, who believe adrenalin junkies will be attracted to this road-hugging, drift-happy machine. During tech briefing, Polaris mentioned pre-existing powersports owners as other potential buyers, a group that includes a cross-section of watercraft, snowmobile, UTV and motorcycle riders. High-viz Hollywood types, the sort that’s always looking for the next big thing, were also lumped into the buying demographic. And while the obligatory “giving aging two-wheeled riders an alternative” was also mentioned, it’s Polaris’ 60th anniversary, and what better way to celebrate that milestone than release something new and exciting for the company."

The only complaint I have regarding the machine is the fact that the gas tank is listed as holding 4.9 gal (4 gal with a .9 reserve) yet everytime my idiot light comes on I can only put apporiximately 3 gal (usualy just a bit over) into the tank. This has been consistent the entire time I've owned the bike. Even after running it quite a few miles after the light I still can't get anywhere near 4 gal into the tank. After many times of running a full tank through and checking my milage vs how much I fill up it seems that the tank is more like 3.9 as opposed to the 4.9 listed. That missing gallon really cuts down on how far one can ride on a given tank of gas. Anyone here ride a 1300 who can give me some insight on this apparently flawed stat regarding the bike?

"text": "Buying Guide – Harley-Davidson Sportster Reading time: about 13 minutes. American Buying Guides Harley-Davidson Motorcycles Introduction The Harley-Davidson Sportster is an American motorcycle that was introduced in 1957 as a competitor for the high-performance bikes being produced by the British that were selling in the United States in huge numbers. The Sportster was one of the first Harley-Davidsons to be fitted with rear-suspension (it’s parent bike, the Model K series was the first) and it was also the first of the Harleys to be fitted with a higher performance, overhead-valve engine. The look of the new, sportier Harley-Davidson was immediately reminiscent of the popular British bikes that were dominating the sports-oriented motorcycle scene in the late 1950s, it had a very similar profile to the Triumph Thunderbird and proved to be very popular in the same demographics in the US motorcycle market. The Ironhead 900cc V-twin engine had a 45 degree offset and could produce 40hp at 5,500rpm, it had a top speed of somewhere in the 100mph range and a total weight of 495lbs. Somewhat amazingly, that Ironhead engine would stay in production for 28 years until it was replaced with the Evolution engine in 1986. This long production run is excellent news for prospective Sportster owners as it means there’s a vast market for spare parts, an immense amount of mechanical know-how and a brilliant community of people around the country who love to meet other Sportster owners, talk shop and offer some hard-learnt advice. Some in the Harley-Davidson community will try to tell you that the Sportster is a “beginners” bike but I disagree with that sentiment pretty strongly – The very first Harleys were essentially motorised bicycles, they were designed to be light, manoeuvrable and capable of racing against Indians, Cyclones, Hendersons, Excelsiors and Popes with relatively few modifications. The large, highway cruising, chrome plated motorcycles we all associate with the Harley-Davidson brand nowadays name didn’t come about until many decades later, meaning the Sportster is actually the truest representation of the original DNA of the company. A Timeline of the Sportster1957 – This was the first year of the Sporster, it used the Ironhead overhead-valve engine, it had twin-spring rear suspension and was aimed squarely at younger people who valued speed and performance over everything else.1972 – The Ironhead engine was updated, most notably with a new 1000cc capacity in place of its original 900cc volume.1975 – This was the year that the DOT specified that all motorcycles sold in the USA had to have a standardised, left-side gear shift."

"text": "By Tim Watson- August 23, 2013Category: Reviews Tweet At one of the biggest launches ever in its 110-year history, Harley-Davidson pulled the wraps off eight new models this week in Denver, Colorado, with more than 100 new features that encompass water-cooled engines, touch-screen and voice-activated electronics, styling updates and new linked ABS systems. Ride Apart was among the first of the world’s media to go to Colorado to see and test the new bikes. Photos: Brian J Nelson What’s New It’s hard to know where to start, as there are so many changes that Harley-Davidson have introduced for the 2014 model year. Some are truly significant developments, such as the new high output 103ci and 110ci water-cooled engines, hydraulic clutches and sophisticated electronics on the big touring models, while there’s a series of smaller updates that run right across the range. These include ABS now as an option on its Sportster models. That move alone brings Harley-Davidson firmly in line with BMW, as the only other manufacturer in the U. S. to offer ABS across its entire motorcycle line-up. Big news too is the 96ci v-twin engine is no more. From 2014 model year onwards (with the exception of Sportsters) all Harley-Davidsons come equipped with a twin cam 103ci motor. There’s the standard 103, which was launched in the previous model year, but for 2014 there’s now a high output 103, a water-cooled high output 103 and for the CVO models (Customer Vehicle Order) a High Output water-cooled 110ci v-twin. Harley-Davidson is well known for being extremely secretive about any new model updates and all of these developments it would be fair to say caught everyone by surprise, including its own global dealer network, which was in Denver also for the annual H-D retailer meeting."

Not long ago there wasn’t a lot of choice out there, just the BMW GS and a handful of others, but now the class has grown so much that we’re going to split it into two segments – covering bigger bikes of 1000cc or more in this top 10 and focussing on the smaller, sub-1000cc adventure bikes at a later date. There’s bound to be debate on the bikes we’ve included, and on the ones we’ve missed out. Should the Kawasaki Versys 1000 be here? Maybe, but it really lacks any semblance of off-road intentions, and the same applies to the stunning BMW S1000 XR, which might be listed as an adventure bike on BMW’s website but has no intention of flexing its 170mph capabilities away from the tarmac (and the firm’s brochure calls it a sports tourer, not an adventure bike). Each heading is a link to a review of the machine in question.10: Moto Guzzi Stelvio The Stelvio is oft ignored in the adventure bike class, but it’s an unfair oversight since it ticks virtually all the boxes that historically made the BMW GS the class leader. It’s got air-cooled simplicity, a shaft drive, ABS brakes and a brand name that inspires a remarkable amount of loyalty from its customers. The downsides include dealers that are relatively scarce and a slightly old-fashioned image. It takes a bit of bravery to lay down £11,635 on a Guzzi, but there are plenty of owners who seem to be pleased that they did it.9: Aprilia Caponord 1200With a 125hp water-cooled V-twin the Caponord – available in various forms to suit different purposes – doesn’t lack performance and has gained some interesting technology like the ADD adaptive damping system and ATC traction control. Downers include a fairly hefty set of price tags (£14,135 on the road for the 1200 Rally) that put it up against some of the most impressive machines in the class.8: Suzuki V-Strom 1000The new V-Strom 1000 marked Suzuki’s late leap into the latest adventure bike boom, long after the old model with the same name had been allowed to wither."

Locked wheels can lead to loss of control. Rule 119Skids. Skidding is usually caused by the driver braking, accelerating or steering too harshly or driving too fast for the road conditions."

"text": "For years, there was no point to making a list of the fastest motorcycles. Bike makers agreed to limit speeds at 186 miles per hour in order to escape the wrath of safety regulators from Japan to both sides of the Atlantic. As a result, only a few manufacturers pushed the limits while the rest offered minor upgrades or track-only extras to increase a bike’s power. Then BMW blew up the agreement (circa 2010), and superbike manufacturers stopped being conservative. Within a few years, they were hitting top speeds that embarrassed the old limits, with several topping 200 miles per hour. Even an electric bike company delivered an emissions-free motorcycle that competed for the world’s top speed. In other words, all bets are off in 2017. Here are the 10 fastest motorcycles on the road.10.

You can have ABS or not (older cars did't have it) but you can't drive without EBD. Older cars were equipped with the mechanical brake force regulator that has similar functionality as the EBD nowadays. In short EBD is responsible for keeping the rear wheels from locking while braking. The rule is that you can have the front wheels locked it will just make the braking distance longer (and the car won't response for steering) but you can't have rear wheels locked because it will make your car immediately turn around. The same happens when you pull your hand brake and lock rear wheels. So EBD is the part of the ABS, they are not actually separate systems. It's just the name of one of the functions that ABS does."

"text": "Motorcycle Braking Considerations in Car/Motorcycle Collisions The motorcycle is a vehicle which is referred to by engineers as a single track vehicle. This simply means that the motorcycle has all of its wheels in one line. Traditionally, motorcycles have been fitted with two independent brake systems—one for the front wheel and one brake system for the rear wheel. While anti-lock brake systems (ABS) exist for motorcycles, the majority of motorcycles are not so equipped. Therefore, the rider’s technique in using the front brake is very important both in stopping the motorcycle and in avoiding the motorcycle falling over while it is being stopped. Generally, if a motorcycle’s front wheel is locked, the motorcycle will fall over quickly; within ½ to ¾ second. It is generally accepted that approximately 70% of a motorcycle’s total braking power comes from the front brake and only 30% from the rear brake. Therefore, a motorcycle driver who chooses not to use his front brake, or does not have the experience or training to use and modulate the front brake of his motorcycle in an emergency, may be abandoning 70% of the motorcycle’s braking capacity. Unfortunately, some “experienced” motorcycle riders do just that – they choose not to use the front brake. Such a choice is often based upon the false belief that if the rider uses the front brake, he will be thrown over the handlebars."

"text": "April 27, 2015 by Alex Ingram What is ABS and how does it work? We can all try to drive as diligently and safely as possible, but occasionally something happens which means an emergency stop is needed to get us out of trouble. It can be a nerve-wracking event at the best of times, but on a slippery surface things can get even more tricky. In the past, heavy braking in such a situation could result in locking up the car’s wheels. Not only does a locked wheel increase the stopping distance over a freely rotating wheel (marginally in the dry, and often by a significant margin on slippery surfaces) but it also removes the ability to steer out of trouble. The invention of anti-lock brakes (ABS) has doubtlessly reduced the number of road traffic accidents since it’s first application – as we know it today – to road cars by Chrysler in the early 1970s. But how does it work? Before ABS became a widespread invention, drivers used a technique called cadence braking if they needed to bring their car to a stop sharpish. This involves pumping the brake pedal as quickly as possible to lock and unlock the wheels, allowing a degree of steering control while still braking hard. Modern ABS systems work on a very similar principle."

( Discuss) Proposed since July 2017. ABS brakes on a BMW motorcycle An anti-lock braking system or anti-skid braking system [1] ( ABS) is an automobile safety system that allows the wheels on a motor vehicle to maintain tractive contact with the road surface according to driver inputs while braking, preventing the wheels from locking up (ceasing rotation) and avoiding uncontrolled skidding. It is an automated system that uses the principles of threshold braking and cadence braking which were practiced by skillful drivers with previous generation braking systems. It does this at a much faster rate and with better control than many drivers could manage. ABS generally offers improved vehicle control and decreases stopping distances on dry and slippery surfaces; however, on loose gravel or snow-covered surfaces, ABS can significantly increase braking distance, although still improving vehicle steering control. [ 2] [3] [4]Since initial widespread use in production cars, anti-lock braking systems have been improved considerably. Recent versions not only prevent wheel lock under braking, but also electronically control the front-to-rear brake bias. This function, depending on its specific capabilities and implementation, is known as electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD), traction control system, emergency brake assist, or electronic stability control (ESC).

That’s not news to anyone who’s ridden one. But neither is the fact that they’re also way more dangerous than a car. The cold reality is that motorcyclists are 30 times more likely to die in a crash than people in a car, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). And nearly half of all motorcycle deaths are the result of single-vehicle crashes. The numbers are even scarier for older riders, who are increasingly taking up or returning to motorcycling after many years. Because of slower reflexes, weaker eyesight, more brittle bones, and other disadvantages, riders over 60 years old are three times more likely to be hospitalized after a crash than younger ones. Still, many enthusiasts enjoy a lifetime of riding without injury. The key to optimizing your odds is to be prepared and avoid risks. Keep in mind that 48 percent of fatalities in 2010 involved speeding, according to the IIHS, and alcohol was a factor in 42 percent."

"text": "ABS pipes are used for household waste water removal. ( Image: coiled plastic tubing image by Jeffrey Zalesny from Fotolia.com)ABS stands for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, a plastic compound used in several household appliances and everyday products. It is resistant to blunt force damage and remains semi-flexible at room temperature. Function Most ABS pipes are found in household drain systems, under sinks and bathtub fixtures. These pipes function properly as long as they are not blocked by tree roots or exposed to sunlight. Ultraviolet rays slowly break down the plastic and cause weak points in the pipe. Properties ABS is resistant to ammonium chloride solutions, calcium chloride and sodium hydroxide, which are the major corrosives that cause metal pipes to fail. It also isn’t affected by water, aqueous salt solutions, mineral acids and alkalis. ABS pipe does not crack, bend or break under heavy loads such as soil and cement slab, even when exposed to extreme temperatures. It performs well over a wide range of temperatures, from minus 40 F to 180 F, and has a relatively high flash point of 221 F. Other Uses ABS plastics can be found in LEGO building bricks, computer mouses, vacuum jugs, suitcases, laundry baskets, handles for brooms and mops, recorders, clarinets, golf club heads, canoes and, in some cases, tattoo inks."

This article will cover various plastics from PVC, to Resin, and their methods, properties and advantages. Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)PVC is a softer plastic, that is typically tinted before being put into the mold. It’s easily paintable (no primer needed) and acrylic paint just typically sticks to it without much of a hitch. It’s relatively cheap plastic. Also, because of its soft properties, sculptors are able to get away with putting in more detail and awkward angles. The downside obviously, is it’s soft, there’s a high chance of leaning figures. PVC is also easily repairable and very durable. You can drop a PVC figure without much problem, and it takes a lot of deliberate strength to tear PVC apart."

Amniotic band syndrome is a broad term for a group of congenital abnormalities that occur when bands of amnion (the inner lining of the amniotic sack or \"\"bag of water\"\") peel away from the sack and attach or wrap around parts of the baby's body, disrupting normal development. ABS can cause a wide range of disorders. Below is a list of some of the disorders that are the result of amniotic bands. Your physician may have used one of these names to describe the disorder he or she suspects your baby might have. Terms applied to defects that are the result of ABS: Amniotic band disruption complex and amniotic disruption complex refer to deformities of any area of the fetus. The band can wrap around a body part and stop the part from completely forming. Although the affected body part may not form completely or normally, it may still be functional.

"text": "\"Solvent Cement For Plastic Pipes Here is my solvent cement primer, pun intended. Modern plumbing pipe, especially drain pipe, is almost all plastic. Most of the plastics involved must be joined with glue, solvent-cement. This makes knowledge of the plastics and the solvent-cement for each important. This isn’t rocket science, but neither is it “falling-down simple.” You don’t have to see many DIY plumbing jobs to find simple things that were done wrong. Yet it doesn’t take too much to get it right!As always, my first concern is safety and proper sanitation. Safety includes both those who will use the systems and those who install them. So let me get you started with this page. As always following instructions is primary so be sure to READ and OBEY all the cautions for using any solvents, cements, or glues."

"text": "\"Frequently Asked Questions about Mainline Backwater Valves Q: How much slope is required in a drain line in order to use a backwater valve? A: In all installations, make sure the slope is adequate. It must be at least 2% (or 1/4\"\" per foot) to insure proper operation (NOTE: this requirement does not apply to SF [Straight -Fit] and ML-FR-4 valves). PLEASE NOTE: The Adapt-A-Valve takes up 6\"\" of run in your line and the outlet is 1-1/2\"\" LOWER than the inlet, so in just 6\"\" the level of the pipe at the outlet side needs to be 1-1/2\"\" lower. The Fullport Backwater Valve takes up 12\"\" of run in your line and the outlet is 3/4\"\" LOWER than the inlet, so in just 12\"\" the level of the pipe at the outlet side needs to be 3/4\"\" lower. Depending upon the amount of slope in your line (2% minimum is required for proper operation), you may need to replace several feet of pipe downstream from the valve to average out the \"\"loss\"\" of fall built in to each valve. Q: Are Mainline Backwater Valves available in different sizes and materials? A: At this point in time, they are only produced in 4\"\" (\"\"Schedule 40\"\" ABS and PVC.) We've asked the Mainline factory for a 6\"\" backwater valve and believe they will be available in the future.

Our research at the time showed that ABS was a stable resin that didn't leach toxic chemicals under normal, everyday use. We've continued watching for updates and so far, our initial conclusion remains true today as no new studies have come to light showing otherwise. Does ABS Leach Toxic Chemicals? While it's true that the individual ingredients, such as styrene, may be toxic on their own in liquid/vapor forms, ABS plastic resin seems to be stable and non-leaching . It's the same situation with other plastics like acrylonitrile styrene (AS) or styrene acrylonitrile (SAN) which is used in Brita pitchers and many mixing bowls, dishes, cups and cutlery. AS/SAN and ABS are higher quality plastics with increased strength, rigidity, toughness and temperature and chemical resistance."

The Honda Fury is not those things. It just looks like one. Photos: Anne Watson Where did those custom choppers go? One minute they were all the rage and then in the ensuing storm of the global financial crisis they disappeared. You can still find a few lurking on the pages of Craig’s List with the owners realizing motorcycles weren’t ever really for them. And now they have to get rid of the bike, albeit at a massive hit, and go and buy an expensive boat, which is probably what they should have done in the first place. So it’s sort of surprising to us that Honda – arguably the most conservative of all motorcycle manufacturers – has persevered with its chopper-inspired Fury VT1300 CX and still finds enthusiastic buyers for it not just here in the U. S. but all around the world.2013 Honda Fury Details What’s New Launched in 2010, the Honda Fury broke new ground as it looked unlike anything the company had produced before. And because it’s Honda it spent a considerable amount of time researching this market sector before committing to offering a bike that on first sight could have come straight from the custom motorcycle world. Honda’s own marketing photographs don’t really do the Honda Fury justice."

U Mean Step Down Voltage lol1 following 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: You can`t use it in the US (easily)Stevie B · 8 years ago0 4 Comment There are a few parts to this: AC means that it runs on 'Alternating Current' - mostly mains (rather than batteries) 220 - 240V means that it wants a supply voltage of 220V to 240V, which unfortunately the US domestic electric supplies are 110V - 120V - which is a bit low. 50/60Hz is the frequency of the AC supply, the UK uses 50Hz,the US uses 60Hz but luckily the PS3 will accept both (this is because the electricity is converted to DC inside the machine) So what can you do? Well you could get a voltage converter - a step up transformer to convert the US 110V to a suitable 240V supply. Looking at photo's (I don't have a PS3) this might be your only option. A lot of domestic goods like games consoles have the power transformer (AC to DC) built into the plug socket (a large plug) and then a lead with a round plug goes into the machine, however with your PS3 it looks like a normal power cable (like you get on a PC) so you will need a transformer - these should be easy to get. If it had the transformer built into the plug then all you would need to do is change the plug unit. Ask in your local electrical component shop for a 250VA Step up transformers, 110V to 240V and that should work.whycantigetagoodnickname · 8 years ago2 0 Comment You need an AC power source either in 50 or 60Hz,and voltage can be chose from 220 to 240 volts,and the power requires 250 watts."

Use a Type B plug adapter [3] for Mexico if the plug you intend on using doesn't fit into a Mexican power outlet. Get a plug adapter for Mexico The type of power adapter, converter or charger that you'll need to use when visiting Mexico all depends on the voltage and type of device that you're attempting to use with a Mexican power outlet. If you do not know what voltage your device uses then please read the section below on how to tell the voltage of your device first. If you're from the US travelling to Mexico all US appliances and devices should work without a power converter or power adapter. However it may be practical to bring along a USB travel power adapter as it will allow you to charge more than one device by only bringing a single power charger. If your device can run on 127 volts or is dual voltage and your plug will fit in a Mexican power outlet then you can use it in Mexico without needing anything else. If your device can run on 127 volts or is dual voltage but the plug won't fit in a Mexican power outlet you'll need to bring a suitable plug adapter for Mexico such a Type B plug adapter [3]. A plug adapter for Mexico (or power adapter) will change the actual shape of the plug on your device to fit into a plug outlet found in Mexico, but but is unable to convert the voltage from 127 volts to use with another voltage. If your device doesn't run on 127 volts and isn't dual voltage you'll also need a power converter for Mexico to convert the voltage from 127 volts to the correct voltage for your device."

"text": "\"The AC Generator - In the current marine environment, most generators supply 120vac output. In order to charge a battery, you had to have a battery charger connected to the Generator. Any time you wanted to use 120V power, especially High Load items such as air conditioning, most start their Generator. All Generators create noise and consume precious fuel. All 120vac Generator must be run at their designed full throttle rpm setting (manufacturer determined) in order to function. That means it is using maximum fuel - all the time. This is especially critical when it comes to generating the required frequency (60Hz) for all 120vac electronics to function properly without a loss of efficiency. Some may even stop working if 60Hz is not available. Even if 120vac and 60Hz are produced, it will not be as clean enough for many of the electronics being used to operate at better than 50% efficiency. Typically, they are also oversized when operated only to supply charging requirements."

"text": "The reason that 120v service was chosen, was economic. Originally electricity was delivered to homes, and most businesses, for a single purpose and that was lighting. Can openers, TVs, washers, dryers, electrical factory machinery, etc. came later. At the time the most cost effective form of light bulb was a carbon filament bulb that operated best (optimally) at 100v to 110v. This, adjusted for transmission voltage drop, set most supply lines at 120v. Supplemental and Related Information: By the time cost effective, and higher voltage, metal filament bulbs were brought to the market, most of the cities in the USA were already running 120v supply lines. Europe was just starting such systems and opted for higher voltage supply lines. Higher voltages are used for long distance transmission and power distribution because more power can be transferred over the same size wire at a higher voltage (lower current). Power generation plants often use voltages in the hundreds of thousands, 115,000 to 165,000 of volts to move power over long distances."

However, if you must assume voltage, then use 125 volts since this with give you double the amps - better to be prepared for the higher numbers for safety's sake. In any case, if sold in USA the specifications will be for 120v or so. Trivia: Remember that the voltage indicated is PIS level, thus an 'average' for this alternating current. This is the voltage used for power calculations (watts)."

"text": "How to Build a Transformer Circuit In this project, we will show how to incorporate a transformer into a circuit. A transformer is a very essential part for many types of circuits. Transformers allow for a lot of different functionality in a circuit. And they are widespread in use. Therefore, knowing how to use them is very important for circuitbuilding. The first thing is, transformers are used when dealing with AC voltages. They don't work with DC voltages. But this is fine, because AC voltages are used widespread, as all household outlets operate from AC voltages. And transformers still are used with DC power because the AC voltages that transformers output can be converted to DC voltages. So transformers are used when dealing with AC or DC power."

"text": "\"Telephone ringing circuits Copyright Tomi Engdahl 1997,2000,2005Preface Telephone circuit gain always interrest, because telephones are everywhere and quite often there are old telephone luying around somewhere. Those telephones can be used for many interresting experiments including small home intercom : connect telephones in series or parallel and feed suitable operating current (about 20 m A) to them through resistor from power supply. The most problematic to home experimenter is how to get telephone ringing because the ringing voltage is over 50V and not at standard mains frequency (50/60Hz). Sometimes you want to get the information that telephone is ringing to your own circuits. This text tries to clear out those problems. What is ring signal ? The telephone company sends a ringing signal which is an AC waveform. Although the common frequency used in the United States is 20 HZ and in Europe is typically 25 Hz, it can be any frequency between 15 and 68 Hz. Most of the world uses frequencies between 20 and 40 Hz. The voltage at the subscribers end depends upon loop length and number of ringers attached to the line; it could be between 40 and 150 Volts."

"text": "\"Forum:solar How far can solar panels be away from house? Ryan Mitchell Posts: 38Location: Charlotte, NC1posted 5 years ago So I am moving to some land and will be putting in a 1 kw solar panel off the grid (batteries) system, because of the location of the house it isn't going to work to put the panels on the house, but there is a perfect place 450 feet away that gets great solar exposure. So my question is, will this distance present a problem? What voltage drop will I experience with this distance and would it be better to convert it to AC at the panels or at the house? Small Sustainable housing: Tiny Houses, Tiny Living: The Tiny Life.com S Bengi Posts: 1495Location: Massachusetts, Zone:6/7, AHS:4, Rainfall:48in even distribution16I like...posted 5 years ago If you connect the solar panels in parallel, it is possible to gets the volts up to 120+DC and have equal power loss either way. However if you plan on running your house of AC vs DC, I would just build a little shed to house the electronic/batteries off-gassing explosive hydrogen, toxic lead & sulfur, etc John Polksteward Posts: 8019Location: Currently in Lake Stevens, WA. Home in Spokane295posted 5 years ago If you want to increase the voltage, the panels would need to be wired in series . Wiring in parallel will increase the power out, but not the voltage. With that long of a run, you would need some large diameter wire to minimize the losses. Ken Peaveysteward Posts: 2524Location: FL89posted 5 years ago It's my understanding that you will lose more power running DC across a distance."

Published January 26, 2014 | By Tim Wilhoit On January 23, 2014 Moody’s downgraded the health insurance industry from stable to negative according to the Washington Post. There are several factors pointing to this decision which are all tied to the shaky rollout of the ACA or Affordable Care Act or better known as Obamacare. According to the Washington Post article, the Moody’s downgrade factors included the website backend issues, low and slow enrollment, especially with younger healthier adults, uncertainty of rule changes and penalty enforcement, the cancellation of non compliant insurance policies and people forced to change physicians and hospitals, higher than expected premiums arethe beginning of many changes to come. What about the health insurance agents roll in this process? How did they fair? Let’s take a look at the numbers. According to the industry there are roughly 400,000 licensed life and health insurance agents in the United States at the end of 2010. This was a decrease of over 30,000 agents from just 2008. The industry predicted a growth of over 20% with the introduction of Obamacare."

For 3 days running the local Sale rag advertised the open/closed day. The Hamms were quoted numerous times throughout the 3 day PR campaign in the local Sale rag stating I was invited as they had “nothing to hide”. They stated that their 300 breeding dogs plus litters would be on “display”. LIE NUMBER ONE-I WAS INVITED TO THE OPEN/CLOSED DAYI WAS NOT INVITED ONTO THE PROPERTY. Once the Hamms found out I had accepted their public invitation to their open day, an 11th hour panic campaign commenced. I received 3 legal letters plus phone calls from the Hamms solicitor warning me that not only was I not allowed to attend but we could not encourage anyone else to attend. Obviously the Hamms were expecting us to refuse their invitation and they panicked when we gladly accepted the invite. Yes they have a lot to hide."

"text": "Many constituents in the Midwest and Southeast whose GOP congressional representatives are most hostile to Obamacare are most dependent on the program, too. ( Kaiser Family Foundation)Michael Hiltzik Contact Reporter If there weren’t so much at stake, one would be amused at the spectacle of Republican politicians writhing as they try to make good on their ideological promise to “repeal and replace” Obamacare without ruining the lives of millions of their own constituents. In the few short weeks since the GOP added control of the White House to its existing control of both houses of Congress, the GOP has been grappling with the recognition that taking potshots at the Affordable Care Act and weakening its consumer protection provisions is no longer just a parlor game, but actions that could have genuine consequences. Not only are they conceding that conjuring up a replacement for the ACA will take much longer than they promised — years, even — but they’re also talking about reinstating provisions of the law that they undermined during their six-year campaign to hobble it. They’re forced to acknowledge that America’s pre-ACA system of health insurance for individuals was so awful that they can’t justify returning to it. We’re talking about a three-year transition now... People are being understandably cautious to make sure nobody's dropped through the cracks.— Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn, R-Texas Many proposals the GOP has offered as replacements end up looking very much like Obamacare, though with more costs shifted to consumers. A repeal bill passed by the Republican House in February would have eliminated the mandate that all individuals have coverage, the subsidies that made it affordable, and $346 billion in taxes (over 10 years) that funded Obamacare but hit wealthy taxpayers. This would certainly have destroyed the ACA, but it was easy for the GOP to pass, because it was 100% certain to be vetoed by President Obama. Such symbolic votes can’t be taken any more."

A respected dermatologist recommended the usual treatment: fewer baths, mild soap, Aveeno® bath oil, and steroid ointment. As she grew, her eczema got worse in spite of treatment. She became allergic to Aveeno. The moisturizers the doctor recommended weren't effective and stung her sensitive skin. I found myself applying the steroid ointment on more and more of her body, without any real improvement. When I became concerned about the long-term effects of using steroids on so much of my daughter's skin, the doctor assured me I had no need to worry because there were no real dangers. At age 8 or so, my daughter, who had always been a thin child, began to gain weight. When her weight gain didn't respond to a lower-calorie diet, I began to suspect diabetes. I took her to an endocrinologist, who confirmed that my daughter had insulin resistance—also known as pre-diabetes or metabolic syndrome."

"text": "\"What Are the Causes of Dark Pigmented Skin on Lower Calves?by JOSH BAUM July 18, 2017Dark spots or patches on the skin are not uncommon, but there are numerous potential causes for this irregularity. Some of these causes tend to disproportionately affect the skin on the lower calves, while others may appear anywhere on the body. Some may also be related to external treatment of the skin, while others involve conditions that cause dark skin from the inside out. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Petechiae Petechiae is a condition in which small blood vessels bleed beneath the surface of the skin, giving the impression of dark splotches or specks. They appear most frequently in parts of the body where blood pressure is the highest, such as the feet, ankles and lower calves, according to the Mayo Clinic.com. They may, however, appear anywhere. Petechiae marks can indicate low blood platelet counts and other conditions that affect normal blood clotting, or they may be caused by some medications. Hyperpigmentation According to the American Osteopathic College of Dermatology, hyperpigmentation is a condition that causes excess production of melanin, the body's natural pigment. There are several different types of hyperpigmentation, as well as several causes, and affected skin may be anywhere on the body. One of the most common forms is known as age or liver spots, which can appear during old age or after repeated sun damage."

"text": "Print Diagnosis Acanthosis nigricans is typically detected during a skin exam. Rarely, a small skin sample is removed (biopsied) for examination in a lab. If the cause of acanthosis nigricans is unclear, your doctor may recommend blood tests, X-rays or other tests to look for possible underlying causes. Treatment In many situations, treating the underlying problem can help fade the discoloration. Examples may include: Losing weight. If your acanthosis nigricans is caused by obesity, losing weight may help. Stopping medications or supplements. If your condition seems to be related to a medication or supplement that you use, your doctor may suggest that you stop using that substance. Having surgery. If acanthosis nigricans was triggered by a cancerous tumor, surgically removing the tumor often clears up the skin discoloration."

"text": "\"By Birdie Varnedore, M. D. , Spark People Blogger 9/27/2011Before I started medical school, I noticed something strange about the skin of some of my family members, the ones who were overweight or obese, like I was then. Various folds of skin--on the neck, arms, and legs, among other places--I noticed their skin was darker and thicker. It didn't look the same as the rest of their bodies. I wondered what it was, what caused it--and whether I would also get it. This dark, leathery skin is quite common, and you may even have this condition yourself. You might have brushed it off as a skin imperfection and thought that there was nothing that you could do about it. Would you believe that this condition can lead you to the diagnosis of medical disease? Before we talk about what it can help diagnose, let's talk about motivation, one of my favorite topics. In my opinion it doesn’t really matter where your initial motivation for weight loss comes from. Vanity, a desire to fit in, trying to find a partner, hoping to get a better job--all of these reasons are fine."

"text": "Signs of Insulin Resistance What is insulin resistance? Insulin is a hormone made by your pancreas. It allows your cells to use glucose (sugar) for energy. People with insulin resistance have cells throughout their bodies that don’t use insulin effectively. This means the cells have trouble absorbing glucose, which causes a buildup of sugar in their blood. If your blood glucose levels are higher than normal, but not high enough to be considered type 2 diabetes, you have a condition called prediabetes caused by insulin resistance. It’s not entirely clear why some people develop insulin resistance and others don’t. A sedentary lifestyle and being overweight increases the chance of developing prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. The effects of insulin resistance Insulin resistance typically doesn’t trigger any noticeable symptoms. You could be insulin resistant for years without knowing, especially if your blood glucose levels aren’t checked."

Symptoms of diabetes vary from person to person. But, the earlier you catch them, the better it is for your overall health and diabetes care. It is worth getting to know, and keeping a lookout for, the symptoms of diabetes—especially if any of the below already apply to you. You are above age of 45You have been diagnosed with pre-diabetes You are overweight and/or inactive You are African American, an Alaska native, American Indian, Asian American, Hispanic/Latino, or Pacific Islander American and are experiencing atypical symptoms Common Symptoms of Diabetes If you are experiencing any of the following, you should be seen by your primary care doctor as soon as possible. Article Do You Have Prediabetes? Article Hyperglycemia: Signs, Symptoms, and Complications Polyuria (Excessive Urination) Polyuria is defined as an increase in the frequency of urination. When you have abnormally high levels of sugar in your blood, your kidneys draw in water from your tissues to dilute that sugar, so that your body can get rid of it through the urine. The cells are also pumping water into the bloodstream to help flush out sugar, and the kidneys are unable to reabsorb this fluid during filtering, which results in excess urination. To meet the clinical definition of polyuria, urine output for an adult must exceed 2.5 liters per day (normal urine output is 1.5 liters per day)."

"text": "\"Last Update: Dec 2001Dermatologic Disorders in Down Syndromeby Dr. Len Leshin, MD, FAAPCopyright 2001, All rights reserved Since the skin tends to reflect other conditions of the body, it's not surprising that children and adults with DS have more than their share of skin problems. This article will address those skin conditions and disorders that are more common in people with DS than the general population. Newborn Skin Newborns with Down syndrome (DS) frequently have blue hands and feet at birth and for several days afterwards. The medical term is called acrocynaosis, and is due to decreased circulation in the hands and feet. This is a harmless condition. Another skin condition seen in newborns is a bluish mottling of the skin, called cutis marmorata (latin for \"\"marble-like skin\"\"). Cutis marmorata is a response of the capillaries of the skin to being cool; it is common in all newborns, but it lasts several months longer in infants with DS. Chronic Skin Conditions Children with Down syndrome may have dry, rough skin. This is often referred to as xerosis. While often associated with vitamin A deficiencies in other children, this is not a common cause of xerosis in Down syndrome."

Reference from A. D. A. M. Back to Top Causes Acanthosis nigricans can affect otherwise healthy people, or it can be related to medical problems. Some cases are genetically inherited. The condition is most commonly seen among people of African descent, in part because it is easier to see in darker skin. Obesity can lead to acanthosis nigricans, as can some endocrine disorders. It is often found in people with obesity-related insulin resistance. Some medicines, particularly hormones such as human growth hormone or birth control pills, can also cause acanthosis nigricans. People with lymphoma or cancers of the gastrointestinal or genitourinary tracts can also develop severe cases of acanthosis nigricans. Back to Top Symptoms Acanthosis nigricans usually appears slowly and doesn't cause any symptoms other than skin changes. Eventually, dark, velvety skin with very visible markings and creases appears in the armpits, groin and neck folds, and over the joints of the fingers and toes."

Among the very practical explanations regarding how the skin impacts is through constricting the arteries and reducing the oxygen in the blood. Additionally, studies find the harmful ramifications of smoking on the skin are raised when coupled with UV rays which you get from direct sun exposure.

The terms eczema and dermatitis are often used interchangeably to denote a polymorphic inflammatory reaction pattern involving the epidermis and dermis. However, “ dermatitis ” means inflammation of the skin and is not synonymous with eczematous processes. The consensus among most dermatopathologists is that the expression “ eczema ” should be replaced with the term “ spongiotic dermatitis ” to reflect the histopathologic changes that underlie the so-called “eczemas”. Histology of eczema The spongiotic tissue reaction pattern is characterised by intercellular oedema within the epidermis ( spongiosis ). Initially there is widening of intercellular spaces between keratinocytes and elongation of the intercellular bridges. Further accumulation of fluid leads to formation of intraepidermal vesicles. Spongiotic dermatitis is a dynamic pathological process; vesicles come and go and can be situated at different levels of the epidermis. Infiltration of the epidermis with lymphocytes ( exocytosis) is common. Parakeratosis forms above areas of spongiosis, probably as a result of an acceleration in the movement of keratinocytes towards the surface."

AN occurs mainly in the folds of the skin in the armpit (axilla), groin, umbilicus and posterior and lateral folds of the neck with very visible markings and creases. The posterior neck is the most commonly affected site in children and the vulva in females who are hyperandrogenic and obese. Sometimes, the lips, palms, soles of feet, or other areas (the knuckles, between the legs, the elbow, under the breasts, around the belly button, the areola of the nipple) may be affected. AN lesions may also appear on the mucous membranes of the oral cavity, nasal and laryngeal mucosa and oesophagus. Acanthosis nigricans can begin at any age including at birth, although it is found more commonly in the adult population. The skin changes appear slowly, sometimes over months or years as hyperpigmented macules and patches that progress to palpable plaques. Usually asymptomatic, occasionally, the affected areas may itch. Papillomatosis (multiple finger-like growths) is common on cutaneous and mucosal surfaces. Acrochordons (skin tags) are often found in and around the affected areas."

Answer by Hunneycaramel Confidence votes 82Many people have a similar problem, with the upper portion of the inner thighs, along with the vaginal area, being darker than the rest of their skin. Sometimes the difference in color is marginal, and can be ignored. A slight difference in color is quite normal - most people have slightly darker skin in the groin area. However, in some cases there may be a huge contrast, which makes the problem rather difficult to ignore, and may also be an indication that something is wrong. In a large number of cases, the darkening of the thighs and groin area is related to obesity. What you have may be a condition that is known as acanthosis nigricans, which is the result of insulin spillover. Obesity is sometimes accompanied by an increase in insulin levels in the body. This excess of insulin can cause skin cells to behave abnormally, producing too much melanin in certain areas. Since you have mentioned that you also have stretch marks, it seems quite likely that obesity is the cause of both problems."

Insulin Resistance Definition Insulin resistance is not a disease as such but rather a state or condition in which a person'sbody tissues have a lowered level of response to insulin, a hormone secreted by the pancreasthat helps to regulate the level of glucose (sugar) in the body. As a result, the person's bodyproduces larger quantities of insulin to maintain normal levels of glucose in the blood. There is considerable individual variation in sensitivity to insulin within the general population, with themost insulin-sensitive persons being as much as six times as sensitive to the hormone as thoseidentified as most resistant. Some doctors use an arbitrary number, defining insulin resistance as a need for 200 or more units of insulin per day to control blood sugar levels. Variousresearchers have estimated that 3-16 percent of the general population in the United States and Canada is insulin-resistant; another figure that is sometimes given is 70-80 million Americans. Insulin resistance can be thought of as a set of metabolic dysfunctions associated with or contributing to a range of serious health problems. These disorders include type 2 diabetes (formerly called adult-onset or non-insulin-dependent diabetes), the metabolic syndrome (formerlyknown as syndrome X), obesity, and polycystic ovary syndrome. Some doctors prefer theterm \"\"insulin resistance syndrome\"\" to \"\"metabolic syndrome. \"\""

"text": "What is an 'Adjusted Cost Base - ACB'An adjusted cost base (ACB) is an income tax term that refers to the change in an asset's book value resulting from improvements, new purchases, sales, payouts or other factors. An adjusted cost base can be calculated on a single or a per unit basis. Next Up Adjusted Book Value Adjusted Earnings Cost Accounting Adjusted Net Worth BREAKING DOWN 'Adjusted Cost Base - ACB'The book value can be adjusted because of a change or improvement made to the asset, such as upgrades to real estate. For example, if a company purchases an office building, then invests more money towards expanding and updating the building, the combined costs are factored together to find the adjusted cost base. However, maintenance and repair costs for the property would be factored into the equation. The new adjusted cost base is then used to compute the gain or loss when it is sold. If the building in the above example is sold, the adjusted cost base is compared with the sale price to determine the return on the asset. In some jurisdictions, the adjusted cost base must be used as the cost of the asset for capital gains purposes. How Adjusted Cost Base is Calculated Reinvested dividends and commissions paid to brokers may be included in the adjusted cost base. If such commissions can be lowered, there may be improvements to the adjusted cost base."

Here’s what you need to know about some of the more nuanced real estate scenarios.94by Romana King May 1st, 2013When you buy real estate you expect that, over time, it will appreciate in value. If you sell that property for more than you paid, you will have an appreciable gain in value and this triggers a taxable capital gain for the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). Also read: Capital gains explained According to my accountant, this isn’t necessarily a problem. His rationale: If you owe tax it means you’ve made money. And capital gains are taxed at only half your marginal tax rate—one of the more favourable tax treatments offered by the CRA. The real quandary, for most readers, is how to calculate this capital gains tax when the sale of the property is a tad more complicated than selling your principal home. For that reason, I address some of the more interesting questions readers have sent regarding the sale of property and how to calculate the taxes owed on their capital gains. ( For more on the basics of the principal residence exemption and how the sale of property doesn’t always produce a capital gain see my Home Owner column in the June 2013 issue of Money Sense. )"

This is because the roof section of a building can be likened to a triangle with a base width, a height in the middle and two sloping sides. Using the basic measurements and some trigonometry, the angles of any roof can be calculated. Source: Myrooff Hip Roof Calculator1. Determine the distance from the edge of the roof to a point on the same plane directly under the highest point. Record this as the roof width. For example, if the roof slopes up from the front of a house to a central ridge, measure the distance from the front wall to the point directly under the central ridge. If the distance between the wall and point below the ridge is 15 feet, then record that as the roof width. 2. Determine the vertical height between the base of the roof and the highest point."

Specifically, FAP suggests that in-session contingent responding to client target behaviors leads to significant therapeutic improvements. FAP was first conceptualized in the 1980s by psychologists Robert Kohlenberg and Mavis Tsai who, after noticing a clinically significant association between client outcomes and the quality of the therapeutic relationship, set out to develop a theoretical model of behavioral psychotherapy based on these concepts. Behavioral principles (e.g., reinforcement, generalization) form the basis of FAP. [ 1] [2] (See § The five rules below. ) FAP is an idiographic (as opposed to nomothetic) approach to psychotherapy. This means that FAP therapists focus on the function of a client's behavior instead of the form. The aim is to change a broad class of behaviors that might look different on the surface but all serve the same function. It is idiographic in that the client and therapist work together to form a unique clinical formulation of the client's therapeutic goals, rather than one therapeutic target for every client who enters therapy.

Unger March 26, 2007Addenda added 3/28/07 and 1/26/13There is a significant movement in the US, spearheaded by forward-looking people, to replace the traditional plurality voting (PV) system with the instant runoff voting (IRV) system. The primary motive is to allow supporters of third party candidates with little chance of winning, to vote for these candidates while still helping to defeat whichever of the major party candidates they feel is the worst. A secondary objective is to eliminate the need for costly runoff elections when no candidate receives a majority of the votes. In this article, I will start by showing how IRV works and where its advantages lie over PV. But the story doesn't end there. While IRV does work as advertised in some important cases, there are other situations in which it produces bizarre results. Furthermore, it will be shown that there are serious problems related to the tabulation and reporting of IRV results. I will argue that both approval and range voting dominate IRV in that they have the same advantages with fewer drawbacks.

Of course, responsibility for any errors and dumb ideas expressed here is entirely on my shoulders. )"

"text": "\"67 terms Velu Flash Circle Learn Flashcards Write Spell Test Match Gravity Advertisement Upgrade to remove ads Sort Together with triangles, circles comprise most of the GMAT Geometry problems. A circle is the set of all points on a plane at the same distance from a single point (\"\"the center\"\"). The boundary line of a circle is called the circumference. There are 360° around the center point of a circle. If you see a circular region on the GMAT you may assume it is a circle. Also, if a point in a diagram seems inside, outside, or on the circumference of the circle, you may assume it is that way. However, do not assume that a point inside a circle is its center, unless the problem specifically states so. We will talk about the different properties of circles and the way they are tested on the GMAT in the future. Q1... Note: Figure NOT drawn to scale. If point A is found outside of a circle centered at P, and point B is found inside that circle, and the radius of the circle is 2, which of the following must be true?"

"text": "\"How do I report the amounts from my T5008 slip? This post includes the most common questions we receive about reporting T5008 slips. How do I complete the mandatory fields in the T5008 section? Boxes 20 & 21: You’ll need to include both the proceeds (box 21) and your adjusted cost base (ACB) (box 20), even if box 20 is blank. Many T5008 issuers report only the proceeds because they don’t know your ACB. It’s your responsibility to track your ACB and enter the correct amount in box 20. If you aren’t sure, contact your advisor or broker. Capital or Investment: You’ll also need to indicate if your T5008 slip relates to income that is capital in nature ( e.g., shares or mutual funds), or if it relates to income that is investment in nature ( e.g., dispositions of mature T-bills). Exchange rate: If there is a value in box 13 that is not CAD, exchange rate is mandatory. We recommend removing the value from box 13 and reporting boxes 20 and 21 in Canadian dollars."

"text": "\"John Heinzl INVESTMENT REPORTERPublished April 4, 2014Updated March 25, 2017Life is full of mundane tasks: taking out the garbage, pulling weeds, cleaning up the kitchen. Today we'll explore the investing equivalent: calculating the adjusted cost base (ACB) of a security. It's a boring job all right, but knowing how to do it will make you a more informed investor – and save you stress at tax time. Why does the ACB matter? You need to know your ACB in order to calculate the capital gain (or loss) for tax purposes when you sell a security. The ACB only matters for non-registered investments; for registered accounts it's irrelevant because there are no capital gains taxes. For simple buys and sells, calculating the ACB and capital gain is straightforward. For example, say you bought 100 shares of XYZ Corp. at $30 each and paid a commission of $10. Your ACB would be $3,000 (100 times $30) plus $10, or $3,010. If you later sold all 100 XYZ shares for $40 each, with a $10 commission, your proceeds would be $4,000 (100 times $40) less $10, or $3,990."

"text": "Asphalt Concrete Base (ACB)Asphalt concrete base (ACB), also called asphalt treated base (ATB), is a dense-graded HMA with a larger nominal maximum aggregate size (1 inch) intended for use as a base course or binder course (see Figure 1). In addition to site paving benefits, ACB can be advantageous because it can provide: A waterproof barrier to prevent fines infiltration into the subgrade and pavement structure. If water accumulates in the subgrade, the repetition of pavement loading can cause subgrade fines to migrate into the base and pavement structure. This can clog the base layer, which impedes drainage and create voids in the subgrade into which the pavement may settle. An alternative to untreated base material. Structurally, ACB is about three times as strong as an untreated aggregate base. Therefore, it is possible to use thinner layers for the same structural support, which can save on excavation costs. In some cases a layer of aggregate base is still needed to provide material to fine grade and to provide a smooth surface on which to pave. A base course that can be opened to traffic immediately after placement. ACB can support traffic as soon as it is compacted."

[ 1] At the time, only 260 out of 2,400 schools of business had specialized professional accreditation, all from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Most or all of the AACSB accredited schools had an emphasis on research, while most other schools had an emphasis on teaching. On April 28, 1988, 150 of the non-accredited schools met in Kansas City, Missouri, to consider alternatives to AACSB accreditation for teaching-oriented schools. [ 4]On May 12, 1989, a study group completed a feasibility study and submitted recommendations for standard for accreditation by the ACBSP. In August 1992, ACBSP was recognized by the U. S. Department of Education as a specialized accreditation agency for business education. In June 1994, a U. S. Department of Education Advisory Committee recommended withdrawal of recognition for the ACBSP due to a determination that ACBSP accreditation would not be a \"\"required element\"\" in making an institution eligible to participate in U. S. federal government programs under the Higher Education Act or other authorities. [ 5] However, at its meeting on January 22, 2001, the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) Board of Directors granted recognition to the ACBSP. ["

What degree levels are available? Virtually every degree level opens a door into the world of accountancy. An associate’s degree can prepare you for a number of entry-level positions, while a bachelor’s degree will give you the necessary tools to build a foundation of accounting knowledge, technical expertise, interpersonal skills and professional insight. Both an MBA with a focus in accounting and a master’s degree in accounting, such as the Master of Accounting (MAcc), will prepare you for managerial positions within the field. We’ll talk more about the differences between them, and how they can further your career, in the masters degrees section. Associate’s Degree Programs Getting an associate’s degree in accounting is one of the fastest routes you can take to an accounting career. Accounting associate degree programs allow you to bypass the traditional bachelor degree, and instead take 1-2 years of courses that will give you a solid base in career-specific accounting skills, including basic accounting, cost accounting, taxation, financial statement analysis and payroll accounting. With an associate’s degree in accounting under your belt, you will be prepared for a number of entry-level accounting jobs. Some options include: Accounts Receivable Clerk Accounting Assistant Billing Clerk Bookkeeper Management Trainee Payroll Clerk Bachelor’s Degree Programs Specific courses and specializations differ from program to program, but it is reasonable to expect your accounting bachelors program to include the following: Introductory, intermediate and advanced accounting courses Courses devoted to taxation and auditing General business and management classes While a bachelor degree accounting program is often a stepping-stone to further graduate degree programs, it will qualify you for essentially all entry-level accounting jobs and many mid-level jobs as well."

The University of Phoenix is so well known because it advertises heavily and has many different campuses in major cities all across the United States. Because the school is so well known, there are some who may question its accreditation . Some question whether the school is accredited at all (it is). Still, rumors of University of Phoenix accreditation problems come up from time to time, whether they are true or not.

Accounts payable is a liabilities account, representing all such payables due for payment in the near term. Does the firm manage its accounts payable obligations effectively? Financial metrics such as Accounts Payable Turnover provide an answer. What Is An Account Payable? An account payable is a liability for an amount owed to a creditor, usually for purchase of goods or services. Consider a buyer who makes a purchase and takes delivery of the goods, but does not pay the seller immediately. The seller is therefore selling \"\"on credit.\"\" As a result, buyer and seller now have a creditor-debtor relationship. And, the relationship lasts until the buyer actually pays."

"text": "Assertion First published Mon Jan 22, 2007; substantive revision Wed Dec 31, 2014An assertion is a speech act in which something is claimed to hold, for instance that there are infinitely many prime numbers, or, with respect to some time t, that there is a traffic congestion on Brooklyn Bridge at t, or, of some person x with respect to some time t, that x has a tooth ache at t. The concept of assertion has occupied a central place in the philosophy of language, since it is often thought that making assertions is the use of language most crucial to linguistic meaning. In recent years, by contrast, most of the interest in assertion has come from epistemology. The nature of assertion and its relation to other categories and phenomena have been subject to much controversy. Some of the ideas of assertion will be presented below. The article will situate assertion within speech act theory and pragmatics more generally, and then go on to present the current main accounts of assertion. [ 1]By an account of assertion is here meant a theory of what it consists in to make an assertion. According to such accounts, there are deep properties of assertion: specifying those properties is specifying what a speaker essentially does in making an assertion (e.g., express a belief ). There must also be surface properties, which are the properties by which we can tell whether an utterance is an assertion, for instance that it is made by means of uttering a sentence in the indicative mood. Some accounts specify deep properties only, while others relate deep properties to surface properties, as we shall see.1. Speech acts2."

"text": "\"What Does a Draft Withdrawal Mean on a Bank Statement?by Brian Bass; Updated September 26, 2017Many individuals find it an inconvenience to write checks to pay bills. To accommodate customers and facilitate the bill payment process, many banks have implemented automated bill payment systems that you can use with either your checking or savings account. If you find a draft withdrawal on your bank statement, your bank has deducted funds from your bank account to pay an electronic bill. Draft withdrawals require you to set up the electronic payment with the business that issues the bill. However, once you have set up the draft withdrawal, your bank will automatically deduct the funds from your bank account according to the payment schedule. Enrolling Before you can use draft withdrawals to automatically pay a bill, you have to make sure the business that issues the bill accepts electronic payments. The business will require you to fill out an authorization form that includes information about your bank account including your bank account number and bank routing number. Businesses typically allow you to complete either a paper or electronic authorization to set up the draft withdrawal. Some companies also require you to provide a voided check during the setup process. Once you have enrolled the payment, the business will automatically deduct the payment from your bank account every billing period, normally once per month."

( Under the cash basis of accounting, revenues are reported on the income statement when the cash is received.) Under the accrual basis of accounting, expenses are matched with the related revenues and/or are reported when the expense occurs, not when the cash is paid. The result of accrual accounting is an income statement that better measures the profitability of a company during a specific time period. For example, if I begin an accounting service in December and provide $10,000 of accounting services in December, but don't receive any of the money from the clients until January, there will be a difference in the income statements for December and January under the accrual and cash bases of accounting. Under the accrual basis, my income statements will show $10,000 of revenues in December and none of those services will be reported as revenues in January. Under the cash basis, my December income statement will show no revenues. Instead, the December services will be reported as January revenues under the cash method.

If the bond yields taxable interest, you can choose to amortize the premium. This generally means that each year, over the life of the bond, you use a part of the premium to reduce the amount of interest includible in your income.

Sellers sometimes recognize only after the sale that they will never realize revenues. What is Revenue Realization? For companies that use accrual accounting, revenues from sales of goods and services are said to be realizable revenues by the seller only when there is good reason to believe the seller will receive payment. When the customer actually completes payment, or when the buyer provides proof that payment is truly forthcoming, the seller realizes revenues. By contrast, for companies that use cash basis accounting, the realization concept simply does not apply. Under cash basis accounting, sellers claim sales revenues only when customers pay in cash.

The Accrual Method for a Profit & Loss Statement Accrued income and revenue are terms that at first glance may seem the same. Differentiating between the two can be confusing because these terms are sometimes interchanged. Regardless of which is being considered in order for one or both to apply, the business must use accrual basis rather than cash basis accounting. Differences Technically speaking, accrued income and accrued revenue are not at all the same. Accrued income applies to businesses that receive interest income from investments. Accrued revenue applies to businesses that perform services or work on projects with multiple billable components but do not send out an invoice until the service contract or project is finished. Despite the fact that accrued income and revenue are technically different, businesses that use delayed billing sometimes use the term accrued income to mean accrued revenue. Accrual Basis Accounting Under accrual-basis accounting, income is recognized when it is earned -- either realized or when the business has a reasonable expectation the income will be realized -- rather than when cash is actually received. With accrued income this can mean when a monthly or quarterly account statement shows interest earnings from an investment that pays dividends yearly."

"text": "\"Types of Leave André Claassen The Basic Conditions of Employment Act, section 19 onwards in Chapter 3, covers employee’s rights with respect to all types of leave. The provisions regarding all types of leave do not apply to employees who work less than 24 hours per month. Annual Leave These conditions also apply to domestic employees. The employee is entitled to 15 working days per annum on full pay. The Act states “21 consecutive days” (section 20 (2) (a) of the Act) and reference to a calendar will show that 21 consecutive days is 15 working days based on a 5 day week, or 18 working days based on a 6 day week. Therefore those employees who work a 6 day week are fortunate because they actually score 3 days over their “5 day week” compatriots. Public holidays which fall within a period of annual leave are additional to the annual leave entitlement. Accrual or accumulation of annual leave. Contrary to popular belief, the Basic Conditions of Employment Act does not stipulate that annual leave must be taken within 6 months of the end of the cycle in which it accrues. What at the Act does stipulate is that should the employee submit a request to take annual leave due to him/her upon expiry of the 6 month period then the employer may not refuse to grant that request for leave."

For U. S. GAAP accounting, liabilities are broadly defined as beingprobable future sacrifices of economic benefitsthat arise from present obligationsthat result from past transactions Note while most liabilities involve known amounts of obligations to be paid in cash on specific dates, the definition is open to many other obligations where amounts and timing are not certain. Current vs. long-term liabilities [ edit]Current liabilities are often loosely defined as liabilities that must be paid within one year. For firms having w:operating cycles longer than one year, current liabilities are defined as those which must be paid during that longer period. The more correct definition, however, is that current liabilities are liabilities that will by settled by current assets or by the creation of other current liabilities. Typical short term liabilities include accounts payable, short-term notes payable, commercial paper, and trade notes payable. For example, consider what happens in the last year of a long term note, when the full face amount of the bond will become payable. Technically, it would appear the full amount due within one year is a current liability."

Basis points are sometimes used because they don't require the accountant to use the decimal point when speaking about the percentage. Small-business owners who grasp this concept can converse more easily with their accountants and gain a better understanding of investing. Definition A basis point in accounting is simply 1/100 of 1 percent. Expressed in decimal form, one basis point is equal to 0.01. While this may seem like on overly complicated way to go about expressing a simple decimal, in actuality the basis point is a simpler way to express the decimal. The real difficulty is in simply getting your mind to think in terms of basis points rather than in decimal terms. This is similar to the new military recruit who must learn to think in terms of a 24-hour clock, rather than one based on 12 hours. The decimals from 0.01 to 0.99 make up the first 99 basis points. At 100 basis points, the percentage is equal to 1 percent, or 1.00."

"text": "Business Accounting Understanding Accounting Methods Understanding Accounting Methods Officially, there are two types of accounting methods, which dictate how the company’s transactions are recorded in the company’s financial books: cash-basis accounting and accrual accounting. The key difference between the two types is how the company records cash coming into and going out of the business. Within that simple difference lies a lot of room for error — or manipulation. In fact, many of the major corporations involved in financial scandals have gotten in trouble because they played games with the nuts and bolts of their accounting method. Cash-basis accounting In cash-basis accounting, companies record expenses in financial accounts when the cash is actually laid out, and they book revenue when they actually hold the cash in their hot little hands or, more likely, in a bank account. For example, if a painter completed a project on December 30, 2003, but doesn’t get paid for it until the owner inspects it on January 10, 2004, the painter reports those cash earnings on her 2004 tax report. In cash-basis accounting, cash earnings include checks, credit-card receipts, or any other form of revenue from customers. Smaller companies that haven’t formally incorporated and most sole proprietors use cash-basis accounting because the system is easier for them to use on their own, meaning they don’t have to hire a large accounting staff. Accrual accounting If a company uses accrual accounting, it records revenue when the actual transaction is completed (such as the completion of work specified in a contract agreement between the company and its customer), not when it receives the cash. That is, the company records revenue when it earns it, even if the customer hasn’t paid yet."

"text": "The difference between cash and accrual accounting lies in the timing of when sales and purchases are recorded in your accounts. Cash accounting recognizes revenue and expenses only when money changes hands, but accrual accounting recognizes revenue when it’s earned, and expenses when they’re billed (but not paid). We’ll look at both methods in detail, and how each one would affect your business. Cash based accounting The cash basis of accounting recognizes revenues when cash is received, and expenses when they are paid. This method does not recognize accounts receivable or accounts payable. Many small businesses opt to use the cash basis of accounting because it is simple to maintain. It’s easy to determine when a transaction has occurred (the money is in the bank or out of the bank) and there is no need to track receivables or payables. The cash method is also beneficial in terms of tracking how much cash the business actually has at any given time; you can look at your bank balance and understand the exact resources at your disposal. Also, since transactions aren’t recorded until the cash is received or paid, the business’s income isn’t taxed until it’s in the bank. Accrual based accounting Under the accrual basis, revenues and expenses are recorded when they are earned, regardless of when the money is actually received or paid."

"text": "What is the meaning of accrued in accounting?3. Accrued expenses (accrued liabilities)Accrued expenses (also called accrued liabilities ) represent unpaid and unrecorded costs incurred in the current period. Accrued expenses should be recognized before cash is paid and should be reported in the income statement in the period they are incurred, and not in the period they are settled (e.g. paid with cash). Accrued expenses or liabilities are shown under the current liabilities in the balance sheet . To record accrued expenses, a company debits (increases) an expense account and credits (increases) a liability account. These adjusting journal entries recognize expenses incurred but not yet paid (i.e. obligation or liability). If the company does not make such an adjusting entry, expenses (in the income statement) as well as current liabilities (in the balance sheet) will be understated, while equity will be overstated, as the result. Examples of accrued liabilities are wages, taxes, rent, and interest. For instance, to record accrued liabilities, companies credit the following accounts: Accounts Payable, Insurance Payable, Interest Payable, Legal Fees Payable, Office Salaries Payable, Rent Payable, Salaries Payable, Wages Payable, Accrued Payroll Payable, Income Taxes Payable, State Unemployment Taxes Payable, Employee Federal Income Taxes Payable, FICA Taxes Payable, etc. Accrued Expenses Example At the end of a period, companies often have accrued interest on long-term liabilities (e.g. bonds payable, notes payable)."

"text": "California Paid Sick Leave Law Amendments: Effective Immediately07.22.15By Judith Droz Keyes, Janet Grumer, and M. Michael Cole On July 13, 2015, California Governor Jerry Brown signed into law urgency legislation amending the Healthy Workplaces, Healthy Families Act of 2014, which generally requires employers to provide paid sick leave to almost all California employees. Our prior client advisories regarding this law can be found here and here. The law generated a multitude of questions due, in no small part, to its lack of clarity. The new amendments are effective immediately. They provide important clarifications and changes that should help employers comply with the law. Nonetheless, some ambiguities and open questions remain. The following is a summary of the key changes. Clarification to Eligibility Requirements With certain exceptions, California’s paid sick leave law applies only to employees who, on or after July 1, 2015, work 30 or more days in California within a year of commencing employment. Previously, it was unclear whether this 30-day requirement meant that an employee could work any 30 days in California, and whether the work needed to be for the same employer. The amendment makes clear that an employee must work 30 days for the same employer within a year of commencing employment to be entitled to paid sick days under the law."

Accrual method in accounting lets us keep assets and liabilities in the periods that they actually belong.

If a company uses the accrual accounting method, as most businesses do, then the accountant deals with year-end accruals before closing the books. All businesses that use accrual accounting have year-end accruals, although some companies simplify matters by refusing to accept new orders during their closing periods. Accrual Accounting Method Accrual accounting records revenue and expenses in the months that the transactions originated rather than when payment was made or received. For example, a screen printer sells 100 T-shirts for $500 to a beachside shop on credit in April and receives a check for payment in May. A business that uses accrual accounting records the $500 revenue in April, when the beachside shop took possession of the T-shirts. A company using cash accounting, the other allowed method, would record the transaction in May when payment was received. Fiscal Year A fiscal year is a 12-month accounting period. The Internal Revenue Service determined that the fiscal year for individual taxpayers runs from January 1 through December 31. However, businesses are free to choose a different fiscal year, perhaps from June 1 through May 31. This relieves the undue burden of closing the books during the busiest season, which might otherwise cut into profits."

To compensate, one extra week is added every fifth or sixth year and, consequently, one quarter therein comprises 14 weeks. We find evidence of predictable forecast errors and stock returns in 14-week quarters, suggesting that analysts and investors do not, on average, adjust their expectations for the extra week. The ease with which 14-week quarters can be predicted, and expectations adjusted, suggests a surprising lack of effort on the part of analysts and investors. Highlights► Many firms define their fiscal year as a 52/53 week period rather than a 12-month period. ► These firms normally have 13-week quarters except for one 14-week quarter every five or six years. ► Compared to 13-week quarters, revenues and earnings are predictably higher in 14-week quarters. ► However, both analysts and investors do not, on average, adjust their expectations for the extra week. ► Our findings are surprising given the benefits to making the simple adjustment for the extra week.

Basically, these accounting concepts provide rulemakers with guidance that will result in financial reports that best help investors, creditors and other financial-report users assess: Cash-flow amounts Timing of cash flow Certainty of cash flow Claims on the resources the company uses to produce cash flow (For more insight, see How Some Companies Abuse Cash Flow . ) You can gain a better understanding of the financial guidelines involved on the U. S. GAAP website. Alternatively, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has produced the Statements of Financial Accounting Concepts for your review. Now let's begin looking into how accounting rules relate to earnings quality. First, we need to define what we mean when we say \"\"quality\"\", as earnings quality means different things to different users of financial statements. For example, regulators would view earnings quality as being high if the accounting had adhered to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), as GAAP is used by regulators to help ensure high quality in financial statements. For our purposes, we want reported earnings to do two things: to accurately represent current operating performance and to aid in accurately forecasting future operating performance. These requirements for high-quality earnings mean that the reported earnings amounts for a particular period should: Represent the underlying economics of the business Be both persistent and predictable (the metric should be stable over time)If the reported earnings keep true to these two concerns, this information will provide a reasonable basis for valuing the company."

"text": "\"The Difference Between Cash Flow and Profit Filed under Finance. The timing of income and expense is imperative. If income exceeds expenses, there will be a profit, but only if there's enough income to cover expenses and keep the business operating as payments come due. A good way to learn respect for the concept of cash flow is to compare it to the idea of profit. As a business owner, you understand and strive to make a profit. If a retail business is able to buy a retail item for $1,000 and sell it for $2,000, then it has made a $1,000 profit. But what if the buyer of the retail item is slow to pay his or her bill, and six months pass before the bill is paid? Using accrual accounting, the retail business still shows a profit, but what about the bills it has to pay during the six months that pass? It will not have the cash to pay them, despite the profit earned on the sale. As you can see, profit and cash flow are two entirely different concepts, each with entirely different results."

"text": "It's important for you to understand the basics of the two principal methods of keeping track of a business's income and expenses: cash method and accrual method (sometimes called cash basis and accrual basis). In a nutshell, these methods differ only in the timing of when sales and purchases are credited or debited to your accounts. If you use the cash method, income is counted when cash (or a check) is actually received, and expenses are counted when actually paid. But under the more common accrual method, transactions are counted when they happen, regardless of when the money is actually received or paid. So with the accrual method, income is counted when the sale occurs, and expenses are counted when you receive goods or services. You don't have to wait until you see the money or until you actually pay money out of your checking account. With some transactions, it's not so easy to know when the sale or purchase has occurred. The key date here is the job completion date. Not until you finish a service or deliver all the goods a contract calls for can do you put the income down in your books. If a job is mostly completed but will take another 30 days to add the finishing touches, technically it doesn't go on your books until the 30 days pass."

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 77 percent of workers in private industry enjoy the benefit of paid vacation time, making it one of the most common employment benefits offered by small businesses. While vacation time is highly coveted, an employee typically does not use it in the same period that it is awarded or earned. To determine when, how and what to accrue for unused vacation time, follow these guidelines. Determine if Accrual is Required Depending on your company’s vacation policy, earned but unused vacation time may be an accrued liability if specific criteria, as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, are met. Unused vacation time that is carried over from period to period, related to work already performed by an employee, paid even if an employee leaves the company, “reasonably” estimable and likely to be paid, meets the FASB criteria and must be accrued. Vacation time that does not meet all of these conditions, perhaps because it is forfeited when an employee leaves the company, need not be accrued. Decide When to Record After determining that an accrual is required, you must decide whether you will record the vacation accrual each pay period or on an ongoing, but less frequent, basis. Smaller companies often find the time spent calculating and recording the vacation accrual disproportionately burdensome compared to the insignificant dollar value of the accrual. In this case, you might elect to record the accrual monthly or quarterly rather than every pay period."

"text": "Terminology of Accounting Important terminology in accounting includes cash vs. accrual basis, assets, liabilities, and equity. Learning Objectives Distinguish between the two primary accounting methods Key Takeaways Key Points The cash basis of accounting records revenue when cash is received and expenses when they are paid in cash. The accrual method records income items when they are earned and records deductions when expenses are incurred, regardless of the flow of cash. Assets are economic resources. Anything capable of being owned or controlled to produce value is considered an asset. A liability is an obligation of an entity arising from past transactions, the settlement of which may result in the transfer of assets, provision of services, or other yielding of economic benefits in the future. Equity is the residual claim or interest of the most junior class of investors in assets after all liabilities are paid. Key Termsintangible assets: non-monetary assets that cannot be seen, touched or physically measured, are created through time and effort, and are identifiable as a separate asset There are two primary accounting methods – cash basis and accrual basis. The cash basis of accounting, or cash receipts and disbursements method, records revenue when cash is received and expenses when they are paid in cash.

The matching concept in accrual accounting helps ensure that periodic earnings are stated accurately. What is the Matching Concept in Accounting? The matching concept is an accounting practice whereby firms recognize revenues and their related expenses in the same accounting period. Firms report revenues, that is, along with the expenses that brought them. The purpose of the matchingconcept is to avoid misstating earnings for a period. Reporting revenues for a period without reporting all the expenses that brought them could result in overstated profits. Note especially that applying the matching concept requires accrual accounting , the practice of recognizing revenues when they are earned and expenses when they are incurred. Actual cash flows from these transactions may occur at other times, even in other periods."

What is Accrued Expense? An accrued expense is an accounting term referring to an expense the firm owes, before it pays the expense. Accrued expenses are therefore unpaid debts, also known as accrued liabilities. The accrued expense concept is one of several accounting conventions that become necessary when the firm uses accrual accounting. In accrual accounting, firms record revenues when they actually earn them, and expenses when they actually owe them. The accrual definitions for \"\"earn\"\" and \"\"owe\"\" ensure that firms report revenue earnings along with the expenses that bring them, in the same accounting period. The actual cash that follows from these events may occur at different times. During an accounting period, for instance: A company may purchase and receive goods before it actually pays for them. This occurs, for example, when customers buy \"\"on credit\"\"—credit the seller issues."

Mutual funds or other pooled assets that accumulate income over a period of time but only pay out to shareholders once a year are by definition accruing their income. Individual companies can also accrue income without actually receiving it, which is the basis of the accrual accounting system. Next Up Accrue Accrued Liability Accrued Interest Accrued Benefits BREAKING DOWN 'Accrued Income'Many employees are paid every two weeks; they do not get paid at the end of each work day. If they leave the company, they are paid for that day of pay because it is earned, but it has not been paid out yet. The income that an employee earns is accrued over a period of time. At the end of the pay cycle, the employee is paid and the accrued amount returns to zero. Accrual Accounting Most companies use accrual accounting. It is the alternative to a cash accounting system and a necessary system for companies that sell products to customers on credit. Accrual accounting is based on an accounting convention that seeks to match expenses and sales to the period when they occurred."

"text": "\"Back to Top Navigation Appeal of Policy on Accounting Treatment For Cash Received as Interest on Certain Nonaccrual Loans (Fourth Quarter 1994)A bank requested a revision in OCC policy establishing the appropriate accounting treatment for cash received as interest on certain nonaccrual loans, to better recognize the true economic reality of those loans. Many of the loans in question have been returned to accrual status, or the bank is recognizing interest income on a cash basis. The bank asked, \"\"At what juncture may a national bank recover into income interest collected and held in reserve as a result of loans being placed on nonaccrual?\"\" The bank also requested reconsideration of OCC's position that a borrower's entire relationship must be paid in full before any contra-interest could be taken into income on any loan forming part of that borrowing relationship. Background A few years ago, at the direction of the OCC, the bank changed its accounting method for nonaccrual loans to the cost recovery method. Previously, the bank had maintained a contra-account to capture interest collected on nonaccrual loans. For financial reporting purposes, this account was reflected as a credit balance netted against the bank's reported loan totals. As loans were returned to accrual status, all previously deferred interest was reversed into income, and each loan continued its course going forward based upon its contractual terms. The loans were not written up beyond what management expected to ultimately collect nor were they written up beyond the contractual amount of the bank's investment in the loans. A significant amount of contra-interest reserves associated with these loans remains on the bank's books as a result of the previous accounting treatment."

Reasons to accrue for expenses In accounting, the matching principle states that expenses are to be matched with revenues. In practice this means that all expenses associated with generation of revenues within a month (quarter, year) should be included in the income statement in the same period as the revenues. Accounting events are based on source documents. For example, receipt of inventory is supported by a packing slip or bill of lading. Accounting would use this document to record the inventory received. Sometimes source documents are not available when a month is being closed. Examples of such source documents are utility bills not received by the time the month is closed. The reason may be that such utilities have billing cycles different from a calendar month."

"text": "\"Magne Matre Gåsland, built an accounting-software, and done accounting for various entities for years Updated May 26, 2015 · Author has 241 answers and 612.6k answer views I have studied this and found one single simple rule that is intuitive and always works, for all accounts. First you must recognize that debit/credit always refers to transactions of value. Bookkeeping is just a way to keep track of where value comes from, and where it has gone. The simple rule you can apply when bookeeping anything is then: Credit is for the source of value, and Debit is for the use (placement/expenditure) of that value. This makes the bookkeping intuitive even for examples like: 1. You have an income (i.e. make a sale). In the simplest case, sometimes used by individuals or small companies ( cash-basis accounting* ): The income account is the source of value, and is hence credited, and the bank account is where that value is used/placed, and hence debited. ( What is helpful to understand here, is that the income account is just an account to track value that originates from outside of the business.) In the more normal case, ( accrual-basis accounting**), the procedure is slightly more complicated, because you use a few more intermediary accounts, but rule I suggest applies the same. This case is explained in my reply to the first comment to this post."

"text": "ACE Inhibitor An ACE inhibitor (or angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor) is a medication used primarily for the treatment of heart, blood vessel and kidney problems. How does an ACE Inhibitor work? ACE inhibitors prevent an enzyme in your body from producing angiotensin II, a substance that affects your cardiovascular system by narrowing your blood vessels and releasing hormones that can raise your blood pressure. This narrowing can cause high blood pressure and force your heart to work harder. ACE inhibitors also increase blood flow, which helps to decrease the amount of work your heart has to do and can help protect your kidneys from the effects of hypertension (high blood pressure). What are different types of ACE Inhibitors? There are many different names and brands of ACE inhibitors. Examples of ACE inhibitors include: Benazepril (Lotensin)Captopril Enalapril (Vasotec)Fosinopril Lisinopril (Prinivil, Zestril)Moexipril (Univasc)Perindopril (Aceon)Quinapril (Accupril)Ramipril (Altace)Trandolapril (Mavik)For what conditions are ACE inhibitors used? Doctors prescribe ACE inhibitors to prevent, treat or improve symptoms in conditions such as: High blood pressure Coronary artery disease Heart failure Diabetes Certain chronic kidney diseases (Primary Nephrotic Syndrome)Heart attacks Migraines In studies, individuals with hypertension (high blood pressure), heart failure or prior heart attacks that were treated with an ACE inhibitor lived longer than patients who did not take an ACE inhibitor. However, some individuals with hypertension do not respond sufficiently to ACE inhibitors alone."

It is used for the treatment of pain and to lower fever. The recommended maximum dose per day has dropped from 4000 mg to 3000 mg because other medications have acetaminophen as an added compound. Inadvertently, people taking maximum Tylenol doses were overdosing because they were also taking other medicines at the same time that contained acetaminophen. Over many years, it has been used countless times by many people and it has proven to be a safe and effective medication. However, if taken in excess amounts, acetaminophen can cause life-threatening illness. Acetaminophen is the active ingredient in Tylenol. It is also found in many other over-the-counter medications people can buy at the drug store and in many prescription drugs. Common drugs include Actifed, Alka-Seltzer Plus, Benadryl, Butalbital, Co-Gesic, Contac, Darvocet, Excedrin, Fioricet, Lortab, Midrin, Norco, Percocet, Robitussin, Sedapap, Sinutab, Sudafed, Thera Flu, Unisom With Pain, Vick's Nyquil and Day Quil, Vicodin, Wygesic, and Zydone (and others).

The National Poison Control Center phone number in the U. S. is 1-800-222-1222. If the person has no symptoms but has taken a potentially dangerous poison, you should also call a poison control center or go to the nearest emergency department for an evaluation. Poison is anything that kills or injures through its chemical actions. Most poisons are swallowed (ingested). The word poison comes from the Latin word - potare - meaning to drink. But poisons can also enter the body in other ways: By breathing Through the skin By IV injection From exposure to radiation Venom from a snake bite or insect bite Poisoning Causes Readers Comment 1 Share Your Story Poisons include highly toxic chemicals not meant for human ingestion or contact, such as cyanide, paint thinners, or household cleaning products. Many poisons, however, are substances meant for humans to eat, including foods and medicines. Foods Some mushrooms are poisonous Drinking water contaminated by agricultural or industrial chemicals Food that has not been properly prepared or handled Drugs Drugs that are helpful in therapeutic doses may be deadly when taken in excess.

You can mix nyquil with tylenol but the reason the nyquil bottle says you can't is because most people don't know what the daily max of acetaminophen is, it's 4000. Exceeding more than 4000 mg of acetaminophen can be harmful, cause liver damage and ecen be fafal. In order for you to consume 4000mg of acetaminophen you would have to take at least 20 tylenol plus the nyquil. All you have to do is read your tylenol bottle and see how much acetaminophen it contains and then do the same thing for the nyquil. You can mix the two as long as you don't go over 4000mg within one day, which you wont. Reply Guest over a year ago How many tylenol and how much Ny Quil taken together can actually kill you cuz I've mixed the 2 and never had anything effect me with up to 6 pills Replybosslady0417 over a year ago Did u read my post??? It can't kill u! The only reason they say don't mix the two is because they both contain acetaminophen and if you exceed the 4000mg maximum daily dose it can cause liver damage and possible be fatal. It is 325mg of acetaminophen in one tylenol pill and 650mg of acetaminophen in one dose of nyquil."

Care & Wellness, Medications\"\"IMPORTANT: Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is very dangerous to dogs and cats. \"\" Acetaminophen (Tylenol®, Paracetamol, APAP, N-acetyl-p-aminophenol) is a pain relief and fever-reducing medicine people use for many types of pain. It’s a popular over-the-counter oral medication used alone or in “combination” medications for headaches, pain, colds, flu and menstrual discomfort. It’s often combined with other drugs including aspirin, opioids, antihistamines, decongestants and caffeine. Acetaminophen comes in tablets, capsules, gel caps, melt away forms, rectal suppositories and liquid forms — all which can be easily digested by curious critters. And because you can find acetaminophen in just about any household with dogs and cats, unfortunately pets are sometimes too easily exposed to accidental poisoning. Why is Acetaminophen (Tylenol) toxic or poisonous for dogs and cats? While acetaminophen is generally safe at the recommended dose for humans…For dogs and cats, acetaminophen (Tylenol) is toxic (poisonous or deadly)!Relatively small doses (a single pill or even a small piece of a pill) can be toxic or deadly to any animal species (cats, dogs, ferrets, birds, pigs, primates, and many others). Why?"

"text": "\"A CLOSER LOOK: Acetaminophen Acetaminophen: The dark side of pain relief July 20, 2009 | Jill U. Adams That longtime staple of medicine cabinets, acetaminophen, appears to be under fire. Used to treat headaches, muscle aches and seemingly every other ache Americans have, the drug -- found most notably in the brand name pain reliever Tylenol -- has recently been called a potential danger to the millions of people who take it. But the drug itself hasn't changed. Nor have the number of problems associated with it. The only new element is public attention to its risks. A Food and Drug Administration advisory committee met late last month to review the actions the agency could take to reduce accidental acetaminophen poisoning. The drug, also found in over-the-counter cold formulas and pain-relieving prescription favorites Vicodin and Percocet, is the most common cause of acute liver failure in the U. S. In acute liver failure, the organ fails quickly, sometimes in 48 hours, as opposed to the more usual forms of liver failure, caused by disease or alcoholism, which can take years to develop. Taking too much acetaminophen does not always cause liver failure. In 2008, the California Poison Control System logged 16,352 cases of suspected acetaminophen overdose, according to the agency's executive director, Stuart Heard. Most cases were not serious, but more than 4,000 people were hospitalized."

APAP overdose is one of the most frequent causes of poisoning, according to the US National Institutes of Health and other health organizations. One of the problems is that APAP is used as an ingredient in so many prescribed and over-the-counter compounds (ingredient combination products), and people often don't pay attention to ingredients.

However, these methods usually gives acetyl chloride contaminated by phosphorus or sulfur impurities, which may interfere with the organic reactions. [ 5] A route avoiding these impurities of phosphorus and sulphur is that of phosgene and acetic acid, COCl 2 + CH 3 COOH = CH 3 COCl + HCl + CO 2.

They have a good therapeutic window, low toxicity and a wide variety of pharmacological profiles. The first synthesized benzodiazepine was Librium or Chlordiazepoxide, and it was discovered serendipiously by L. Sternbach and E. Reeder, when they submitted a sample of what they thought could be an antibiotic, that they were going to throw out anyway during a spring cleaning. But they determined the structure of the compound errorneously, it had rearranged itself to Librium during the synthesis. One of the benzodiazepines that came shortly after Librium was Diazepam, commonly sold under the trade name Valium, and it is is your typical benzodiazepine.

Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter used in the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system. The peripheral nervous system is broken into two groups: the autonomic system and the somatic system. Then, the autonomic system is broken down into two more groups: the sympathetic nervous system (associated with \"\"fight or flight\"\" responses) and the parasympathetic nervous system (associated with \"\"rest and digest\"\" responses). Acetylcholine is specifically released in pre- and post-ganglionic parasympathetic neurons and also in preganglionic sympathetic neurons (a ganglion is just a mass of nerves).

Even under anesthetic some patients will twitch and move; which could be disastrous during some types of surgery. To prevent this the patient will be given acetylcholine chloride which paralyzes the major muscles and prevents movement. Because of this the patient is usually on a respirator during surgery, the medicine also paralyzes the muscles involved in breathing. After the surgery is complete the patient is given a dose of what is called an \"\"antagonist\"\" to counteract the effects of the paralyzing drug and then is brought out from the general anesthesia."

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

[ 3] The pi system linkage through the central oxygen offers very weak resonance stabilization compared to the dipole-dipole repulsion between the two carbonyl oxygens. The energy barriers to bond rotation between each of the optimal aplanar conformations are quite low. [ 4]Like most acid anhydrides, the carbonyl carbon of acetic anhydride has electrophilic character, as the leaving group is carboxylate. The internal asymmetry may contribute to acetic anhydride's potent electrophilicity as the asymmetric geometry makes one side of a carbonyl carbon more reactive than the other, and in doing so tends to consolidate the electropositivity of a carbonyl carbon to one side (see electron density diagram). Production [ edit]Acetic anhydride was first synthesized in 1852 by the French chemist Charles Frédéric Gerhardt (1816-1856) by heating potassium acetate with benzoyl chloride. [ 5]Acetic anhydride is produced by carbonylation of methyl acetate: [6]CH 3 CO 2 CH 3 + CO → (CH 3 CO) 2 OThe Tennessee Eastman acetic anhydride process involves the conversion of methyl acetate to methyl iodide and an acetate salt."

This invention also provides a method for making such polymers. The present invention results from the discovery that, if certain monomers having two sites of olefinic unsaturation separated from each other by three chain atoms, including a quaternary ammonium chloride group, are brought into contact with a free radical catalyst, such as a peroxide catalyst, surprisingly a new high molecular weight water-soluble polymer is obtained. This result is not observed from the polymerization of other quaternary ammonium salt polymers having identical structure but with an anion other than the chloride anion. Similarly,if more than two olefinic sites are present in the molecule, or if these are spaced from each other other than as specified above, the polymers of this invention are not obtained."

Read More on This Topicmajor industrial polymers: Cellulose acetate The deficiencies inherent in cellulose nitrate raised the possibility of producing other esters of cellulose, particularly the esters of organic acids. In 1865 Paul Schützenberger and Laurent Naudin of the Collège de France in Paris discovered the acetylation of cellulose by acetic anhydride,…READ MORECellulose is a naturally occurring polymer obtained from wood fibres or the short fibres (linters) adhering to cotton seeds. It is made up of repeating glucose units that have the chemical formula C 6 H 7 O 2 (OH) 3 and the following molecular structure: In unaltered cellulose, the X in the molecular structure represents hydrogen (H), indicating the presence in the molecule of three hydroxyl (OH) groups. The OH groups form strong hydrogen bonds between cellulose molecules, with the result that cellulose structures cannot be loosened by heat or solvents without causing chemical decomposition. However, upon acetylation, the hydrogen in the hydroxyl groups is replaced by acetyl groups (CH 3 -CO). The resultant cellulose acetate compound can be dissolved in certain solvents or softened or melted under heat, allowing the material to be spun into fibres, molded into solid objects, or cast as a film. Cellulose acetate is most commonly prepared by treating cellulose with acetic acid and then with acetic anhydride in the presence of a catalyst such as sulfuric acid."

In this type of reaction, a nucleophile – such as an alcohol, amine, or enolate – displaces the leaving group of an acyl derivative – such as an acid halide, anhydride, or ester. The resulting product is a carbonyl -containing compound in which the nucleophile has taken the place of the leaving group present in the original acyl derivative. Because acyl derivatives react with a wide variety of nucleophiles, and because the product can depend on the particular type of acyl derivative and nucleophile involved, nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions can be used to synthesize a variety of different products.

This reaction can be accelerated by acidic conditions, which make the carbonyl more electrophilic, or basic conditions, which provide a more anionic and therefore more reactive nucleophile. The tetrahedral intermediate itself can be an alcohol or alkoxide, depending on the p H of the reaction. The tetrahedral intermediate of an acyl compound contains a substituent attached to the central carbon that can act as a leaving group. After the tetrahedral intermediate forms, it collapses, recreating the carbonyl C=O bond and ejecting the leaving group in an elimination reaction. As a result of this two-step addition/elimination process, the nucleophile takes the place of the leaving group on the carbonyl compound by way of an intermediate state that does not contain a carbonyl."

[ 1] Its main function is to deliver the acetyl group to the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle) to be oxidized for energy production. Coenzyme A (Co ASH or Co A) consists of a β-mercaptoethylamine group linked to the vitamin pantothenic acid through an amide linkage [2] and 3'-phosphorylated ADP. The acetyl group (indicated in blue in the structural diagram on the right) of acetyl-Co A is linked to the sulfhydryl substituent of the β-mercaptoethylamine group. This thioester linkage is a \"\"high energy\"\" bond, which is particularly reactive."

Coenzyme A, synthesized by the body from pantothenic acid, or vitamin B-5, plays a key role in aerobic cellular respiration. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Glycolysis Glycolysis is the first step in cellular respiration. It is the process by which cellular metabolism begins converting glucose, the main fuel used by the body obtained from starches and sugars, into usable energy. In glycolysis, glucose is partially oxidized, creating adenosine tri-phosphate, or ATP, the nucleotide that stores energy in the body in a form cells can readily use, according to the Johnson County Community College. Glycolysis also produces some waste in the form of carbon dioxide, which is exhaled, and an acetyl group called pyruvic acid, which then joins with coenzyme A for the next step of cellular respiration. Acetyl Coenzyme A Formation After glycolysis, pyruvic acid enters the cell mitochondrion, where it combines with coenzyme A to form acetyl Co A, according to the Clinton Community College. In the process, each pyruvic acid molecule loses one carbon atom, which combines with available oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, which is released through exhaling. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, or NAD, also carries away hydrogen in the process of oxidation, becoming NADH. The remaining carbon atoms bond with coenzyme A, creating acetyl Co A. Kreb's Cycle When oxygen is present, cellular respiration continues after glycolysis with a process called the Kreb's cycle."

Glucose can either be created through photosynthesis in plant cells or ingested in animal cells. Oxygen can either be absorbed or inhaled. A consistent supply of both glucose and oxygen are necessary for the cell to survive. The four stages of cellular respiration are glycolysis, the transition stage, the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain. Through this process, 38 molecules of ATP are created for every molecule of glucose. Glycolysis Glucose is broken down in the cytoplasm of the cell during the glycolysis stage. Two phosphate groups attach to the glucose molecule and the glucose is split into two identical compounds. A hydrogen ion with two electrons is removed from each of these compounds and attached to a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide to form NADH."

It is a non-profit private council that evaluates and accredits medical residency and internship programs. The ACGME was founded in 1981 and was preceded by the Liaison Committee for Graduate Medical Education, which was established in 1972. [ 1] The ACGME currently oversees the post-graduate education and training for all MD and the majority of DO physicians in the United States. [ 2] Plans call for the ACGME to oversee the Unified Accreditation System for all MDs and DOs in 2015. [ 3]The ACGME's member organizations are the American Board of Medical Specialties, American Hospital Association, American Medical Association, Association of American Medical Colleges, and the Council of Medical Specialty Societies each of whom appoints four members to the ACGME's board of directors. On October 24, 2012, the ACGME, the American Osteopathic Association (AOA) and the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine (AACOM) announced an agreement to pursue a single, unified accreditation system for graduate medical education programs in the United States beginning in July 2015. Plans call for the ACGME to accredit all osteopathic graduate medical education programs currently accredited by AOA. AOA and AACOM would then become organizational members of ACGME. ["

Hershey Medical Center is a categorical three-year, ACGME-accredited program that admits 20 residents per year. In addition, the Preliminary Medicine Residency is a one-year, ACGME-accredited program that admits five residents per year. Program Director’s Welcome Welcome to the Penn State Internal Medicine Residency! I hope as you explore this website you will learn more about our philosophy for graduate medical education, our commitment to focus on your individual goals as developing physicians, our dedication to providing you with robust training in both the inpatient and ambulatory care components of internal medicine, and about the opportunities available to you at our institution and through our training program. Just over 15 years ago I first visited the Penn State College of Medicine campus as an undergraduate student applying for admission to medical school. I noticed immediately how it had a different “feel” from many other places I had interviewed. Walking through the halls, faculty and students stopped to chat – even those clearly on route to patient care duties. I was made to feel a member of the community, despite my obvious status as an “interviewee.” That same welcoming spirit and collegial atmosphere marked my follow up visits, solidifying my choice to pursue medical training here. As my time at Penn State progressed and my role in the institution changed from student to resident to faculty, the one thing that did not was the collegiality, collaborative spirit, and sincere commitment to my professional growth and personal well-being that I sensed and experienced as an applicant so many years ago."

How many hours do doctors work?4 following 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: This is a really good question, because lots of people who are looking at the possibility of medical school are wondering exactly the same thing. Therefore you will get the \"\"long answer\"\" version. I will be referring people back to this post when they ask me something similar in the future. First, you need to understand a few things. Medical students are just that... students. Therefore it's a bit difficult to estimate something like an amount of work hours that they perform. Academic study habits are personal characteristics rather than requirements. One doesn't get credit for the number of hours served in study. One only gets credit for the results of that study in terms of test performance."

ACGME requires IMGs who enter ACGME-accredited programs to be certified by ECFMG. ECFMG Certification is also one of the eligibility requirements for IMGs to take Step 3 of the three-step United States Medical Licensing Examination ( USMLE ). Medical licensing authorities in the United States require that IMGs be certified by ECFMG, among other requirements, to obtain an unrestricted license to practice medicine. The foundation of ECFMG’s certification program has endured remarkably over the last five decades. Throughout the history of the program, the requirements have included examinations in the medical sciences, evaluation of English language proficiency, and documentation of medical education credentials. Over the years, there have been changes in the examinations accepted to meet the requirements for ECFMG Certification and changes to the requirements themselves. These changes have been made to enhance the certification program, respond to the needs of the U. S. graduate medical education community, comply with the changing immigration landscape, take advantage of new technologies, and achieve a common examination pathway to medical licensure for IMGs and U. S. medical graduates. ECFMG Certification is an effective screening mechanism for ensuring that IMGs in patient care situations have met minimum standards."

"text": "\"What is the difference between a Sports Medicine Physician and an Orthopedic Surgeon? Sports Medicine physicians specialize in the complete health care of athletes. Orthopedic Surgeons specialize in the operative treatment of injuries. Both are trained in the care of musculoskeletal problems. Approximately 90% of all sports injuries are non-surgical. When surgery is necessary, the Sports Medicine physician can expedite referral to the Orthopedic Surgeon. More patients are referred to Dr. Silberman by orthopedic surgeons, than Dr. Silberman refers to orthopedic surgeons. Sports Medicine physicians are additionally trained in the non-musculoskeletal aspects of sports health. Common examples include: concussions, exercise-induced asthma, overtraining and fatigue, return to play issues after being sick or injured, nutrition, training and conditioning. To become a Sports Medicine Physician, one must complete a residency in Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Emergency Medicine, or Pediatrics and then a Fellowship of 1 to 2 years of training specifically focused on Sports Medicine - the comprehensive care of the athlete's orthopedic, medical, nutritional, and psychosocial needs."

"text": "The 80 hour resident work week balances fatigue and independence Danielle Ofri, MD, Ph D | Education | August 12, 201016Share Tweet Share How many hours can a doctor work? The residency regulators are back. About ten years ago, the national organization that accredits residency programs (ACGME) set out its first guidelines about how many hours a doctor-in-training can work. Interns and residents finally achieved the vaunted 80-hour workweek. New York State was 15 years ahead on this, having mandated an 80-hour work week in 1989, stemming from the Libby Zion case. Every patient wants a doctor who is well rested and alert, but limiting residents to 80 hours per week wasn’t as simple a panacea as it seemed, as I wrote in an editorial in the New England Journal of Medicine shortly after the ACGME regulations were issued. Practical issues abounded, mainly concerning the increased number of hand-offs required, as patients had to be cycled between teams of doctors. Less quantifiable, though no less concerning, was the inevitable progression toward “shift-mentality” and a decrease in professionalism. In fact, the 80-hour workweek did not decrease errors and did not increase sleep time for the doctors. The ACGME has recognized this and has now issued a new report."

"text": "Resident Hours and Call Schedule Graduate medical education in surgery requires a commitment to continuity of patient care. This always takes precedence regardless of the time of the day, day of the week, number of hours already worked, or on-call schedule. Transition of care is kept to the minimum and a detailed sign out sheet has been developed to prevent errors during the sign out. At the same time residents providing this continuity of care should be healthy, alert, and responsible and have adequate rest and in a state of mind capable of communicating well with their colleagues, attendings and other staff members. They should meet all the duty hour requirements by ACGME and Bell Commission. The residents are provided with sleeping rooms, lounge, reading room and food within the hospital facilities. The residents are provided with laboratory, medical records and radiologic information systems to assist in appropriate quality and timely care of patients. They are also provided with support services to enable them to concentrate on patient care. The residents do have back up support with physician assistants being available during the day and at night. The on-call schedule is arranged so that continuity of care of patients is maintained."

"text": "\"Anesthesia & Analgesia: December 1997 - Volume 85 - Issue 6 - pp 1185-1190Editorial Subspecialty Training in Pediatric Anesthesiology: What Does It Mean? Rockoff, Mark A. MD; Hall, Steven C. MDFree Access Article Outline Author Information (Rockoff) Department of Anaesthesia, Harvard Medical School and Children's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts; and (Hall) Department of Anesthesia, Northwestern University Medical School and Children's Memorial Hospital, Chicago, Illinois. Accepted for publication September 9, 1997. Address correspondence to Mark A. Rockoff, MD, Department of Anesthesia, Children's Hospital, 300 Longwood Ave., Boston, MA 02115. As to the advantages of specialties to the science of medicine there can be but one opinion; that \"\"division of labor,\"\" that has accomplished so much in the history of all the other sciences, must give like results in the broad field of medicine… however, there is great diversity of opinion as to its benefits to the profession. The chief objection brought against specialties is that they operate unfairly toward the general practitioner, in implying that he is incompetent to properly treat certain classes of diseases, and narrowing his field of practice… It is natural that in any change from old-beaten paths, there should be some temporary confusion, but it is thought that as soon as the relations between special and general practice become better adjusted, and they settle down into their appropriate spheres of work, as they shortly will do, great advantage will accrue, even to the general practitioner; the number of his patients and the amount of work will not be diminished, but his practice will only be circumscribed in the variety of his cases. The Committee, therefore, are of the opinion that specialties are destined not only to advance the science of medicine, but to elevate and improve the profession; and they think it due, both to them and the public, that this Association-known as the highest medical authority in the country-should give them its official sanction. Report of the Committee on Specialties, American Medical Association, 1869 [1]. Specialization has been controversial throughout the history of medicine. William Osler pointed to evidence of it in the Ebers papyrus written more than 3000 yr ago [2]. It was certainly contentious when medieval physicians made distinctions between apothecaries and barber-surgeons."

"text": "Forensic Pathology Career & Salary Outlook One of the most lucrative and in-demand subfields of forensics is pathology. These “death detectives” are licensed physicians with special training to perform autopsies and determine the cause of a death, disease, or injury. Also, they’re typically certified by the American Board of Pathology (ABP) in the forensic pathology subspecialty, a process which can take four to five years after medical school, including the completion of qualifying residency and fellowship programs. The National Institute of Justice (NIJ 2015)—an organization which has provided more than $42 million to research in pathology—details some of the most pressing responsibilities of forensic pathologists. NIJ reports that these professionals perform rigorous post-mortem examinations to determine the cause of death; consider medical histories of patients; perform complex scientific tests and assessments on subjects; liaise with various legal and medical professionals; construct plausible explanations for various types of wounds, marks, or internal injuries; recover evidence from corpses (e.g., bullets); analyze case reports and toxicology tests; and serve as expert witnesses in court. Forensic pathologists embody traits of doctors and detectives, often working long hours to solve cases and determine where criminal charges may be appropriate. Additionally, the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP) reports that with rapidly evolving scientific technologies, there are more than 2,000 laboratory tests available for bodily fluids, and therefore the ongoing training in this field is extensive. Read on to discover the bright career outlook for forensic pathologists, as well as to learn about salary prospects, specialties, and professional accreditation. Career Outlook for Forensic Pathologists There is ample evidence of opportunities for aspiring forensic pathologists in years to come. According to a recent article in the Wall Street Journal (WSJ 2015), there is a profound shortage of forensic pathologists which is delaying autopsies across the US."

"title": "http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-an-ach-deposit.htm\nWhat is an ACH Deposit?",
"text": "An Automated Clearing House (ACH) deposit is an electronic transfer of funds using the Automated Clearing House. The Automated Clearing House is a secure network in the United States through which banks and other financial institutions can transmit electronic transactions. An ACH deposit means that funds are electronically deposited into an account. This means there is no need for a person to write a check and no one has to visit a bank to complete the transaction. To understand how an ACH deposit works, it may help to consider an example. For example, a person may owe a loan payment to one of his creditors. In such a case, he could write a check for the loan payment and send it through the mail, or he could visit the company in question and pay in person. To save time and enjoy convenience, however, he may pay using an ACH deposit. This means he sets up a deposit to the creditor's account on the Internet or over the phone, and the transaction is handled electronically; he never has to physically handle money or leave his home to complete a transaction this way. Some employers use ACH deposits as a way to pay their employees through a process known as direct deposit."

SUMMARY: The Department of the Treasury, Financial Management Service (FMS) is issuing this final rule which amends our regulation governing the use of the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network by Federal agencies. The rule adopts, with some exceptions, the 2009 ACH Rules published by NACHA—The Electronic Payments Association (NACHA) as the rules governing the use of the ACH Network by Federal agencies. Among other things, the final rule includes new requirements to identify all international payment transactions using a new Standard Entry Class Code and to include certain information in the ACH record sufficient to allow the receiving financial institution to identify the parties to the transaction and to allow screening to comply with requirements administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). In addition, the rule requires financial institutions to provide limited account-related customer information related to the reclamation of post-death benefit payments as permitted under the Payment Transactions Integrity Act of 2008. It also allows Federal payments to be delivered to pooled or master accounts established by nursing facilities for residents of those facilities or held by religious orders whose members have taken vows of poverty. DATES: October 24, 2011. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of October 24, 2011.

Wire transfer process is coordinated by SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) messages between banks and money transfer operators. Since the transaction is happening between 2 financial institutions they tend to charge heavy fees to send and receive money. But this also results in a faster money transfer.

"text": "Business & Finance Taxes United States What time does direct deposit from the irs usually occur?just wondering if anyone knows what time the irs usually does direct deposit......3 following 9 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: There is no specific time. It's up to your bank when it's posted, not the IRS. The IRS runs the ACH transmittals for tax refunds on Thursday evenings. How long it takes to make it into your bank account depends entirely upon your bank. If your bank processes them in real time around the clock it will usually be in your account sometime on Friday, often at the beginning of the banking day. If your bank batch processes at end-of-day (many still do) then it will be processed by your bank on Friday evening and will be in your account on Monday morning. If Monday falls on a holiday it will be Tuesday before you see your money. A few small community banks and credit unions are not on the Fedline system and/or process ACH transactions manually. In that case it often takes an additional 2 to 4 days or more for your refund to post to your account. SOME banks can tell you if there is a pending transaction but not all of them can."

Electronic Payments Made Easy Share Flip Pin Email•••By Justin Pritchard Updated February 14, 2017In banking, ACH stands for Automated Clearing House, which is a network used for electronic payments and money transfers. ACH is a way to move money between banks without using paper checks, wire transfers, credit card networks, or cash. References to ACH can mean several things, depending where you see it. On your bank statements (or transaction history), ACH means that an electronic payment was made to or from your account using your checking account information. Common examples of ACH transfers are listed below. In order for any ACH transfer to move funds to or from your account, you need to authorize those transfers and provide your bank account and routing numbers. On your bills, ACH means you have the option to pay your bills electronically. Sometimes these payments are known as e Checks, EFT, or similar. Instead of writing a check or entering a credit card number, you can provide your checking account details and have funds pulled directly from your account."

He learned from the bank's CSR that the external transfer limits are $2,000 daily and $5,000 monthly. For customers hoping to take advantage of UFB Direct's very competitive money market rate, these low limits can make it more difficult. When I reviewed UFB Direct last year, I was told that certain customers can have this limit raised. According to the UFB Direct official: Once you are with UFB Direct for 90 days and have used the standard inbound transfer, had no NSF incidents and have maintained the account in good standing, you can fall in the standard high limit: $15,000 daily and $25,000 monthly. In my opinion, even these higher limits are too low. UFB Direct isn't alone. Other banks and credit unions have small transfer limits. Incredible Bank is a little better with its limits, but they're still low especially for outbound transfers. According to Incredible Bank's FAQs, there's a \"\"maximum of $10,000 ACH transferred out per day and a maximum of $50,000 ACH in per day.\"\""

I too thought the same thing when I was first approached to implement this solution for a local manufacturing company but after some review after the project if all your specifications are defined and the business is involved then there is no need to worry. Below I’m listing the steps needed to successfully configure this solution to fit just about any company that has the need to use ACH. First I’ll start with the functional specifications and we will work on configuration from there: Design Specifications– XYZ Company’s current unused payment method “A” will be renamed and utilized for ACH Domestic Payment should have the ability to output Bank X’s EFA formatted totals file. The ACH payment method will output the standard NACHA file format CTX (Corporate Trade Exchange) with the assistance of SAP standard payment program RFFOUS_T, and custom variants while running the payment proposal in F110."

"text": "Difference Between Wire Transfer and ACHComments (68) Post a Comment POSTED BY Miranda Marquit204What is a Wire Transfer? One of the fastest ways to send money is via wire transfer. Although a wire transfer can take days, in most cases a wire transfer takes place within minutes. It is a direct bank-to-bank transaction that allows you to move money from your account directly into the account of someone else. This transfer is conducted as part of an agreement set up between banks that establishes guidelines and allows for such transfers to take place. When a wire transfer is made from one bank account to another, both account holders are verified. Additionally, the amount of money in each account is verified, so there are no charge backs associated with wire transfers. In general, a wire transfer is fast and secure. Since it is handled individually by the banks and does not go through a clearinghouse first, a wire transfer can take place almost in real time. Financial institutions often charge fees for receiving wire transfers, as well."

"text": "Global ACH or IAT Transactions There is no single “Global ACH” or “international ACH” (Also referred to as e Check or local bank transfer) payment method. That is because there is no official governing standard called “global ACH” or “international ACH.”What most people mean when discussing “ Global ACH ” is the direct deposit of funds into a cross-border bank account through that country’s basic clearing mechanism. In the United States, NACHA (National Automated Clearing House Association) manages the ACH network of transactions for all the banks in the US. The equivalent of ACH in Europe is SEPA, the Single Euro Payments Area, which consists of 35 participating countries (with specific exclusions of certain territories). In Australia, the equivalent of ACH is “Direct Entry.” So while there is no official “global ACH” system to pay suppliers via ACH in any country, mechanisms exists in each region to enable this type of payment. Global ACH vs. Wire Transfers The best way to describe the value of ACH functionality is to compare it to wire transfers. The difference between an ACH-like experience and a wire transfer is that ACH-like systems are collectives across all banks in the country where wire transfers require individual banks to connect. Wire transfers are faster (because they require both banks to have an ad-hoc direct communication link to transfer funds), but they’re much more expensive (with both banks charging for the transaction because it is literally more work for both financial institutions). As mentioned, ACH-like transfers rely on another body (e.g. NACHA, SEPA, etc.)"

Luks, MDCalcific tendonitis is one of the most painful shoulder conditions. The pain from calcific tendonitis can make it difficult to sleep, and difficult to use your shoulder for normal daily activities. There are effective non-surgical treatments to address your shoulder pain due to calcific tendonitis. Most patients with calcific tendonitis can avoid shoulder surgery. No one knows what causes the calcium to deposit inside your rotator cuff. If you have very severe shoulder pain and you were told that you have calcium on your shoulder X-ray then you are likely suffering from calcific tendonitis of the rotator cuff.

These transfers happen usually as a result of funds being transferred on behalf of banks customers; or it can be for cheque clearing purposes; or for POS settlements; or for other bulk payments (like salary credits). ACH is not the same as EFT; ACH is a type of EFT; but it is generally restricted to bulk settlement of accounts. EFT is just transfer of funds by sending messages electronically.

Answer: Salivary glands receive sympathetic innervation (alpha1 & beta-receptors) in addition to cholinergic inneration (muscarinic). Activation of either system will increase secretion. The cholinergic is the more important system. Clonidine acts on the presynaptic alpha2-receptor to decrease NE release and hence decrease secretions from the salivary gland, resulting in dry mouth (very common). Question: Why do sympathomimetics make you sweaty if sweat glands have muscarinic receptors? Answer: The Sympathetic NS regulates sweating (see table on page 81) by controlling the function of about five million sweat glands in the body."

The process generally works like this: You approach a bank or other financial institution and ask to transfer money. You give the bank a certain code, either an international bank account number or one of several other standards, which informs the bank where to send the money. The bank sends a message through a system like Fedwire to the receiving bank, along with settlement instructions. This is where the process can get a bit tricky. For the wire transfer to work, the banks must have reciprocal accounts with each other, or the sending bank must send the money to a bank that does have such an account with the receiver. If the sending bank sends the money to a third-party bank, the transaction is settled between them, and the money is then sent to the receiving bank from the third-party bank."

"text": "Banking and Loans Small Business Banking What does ACH Stand For? Electronic Payments Made Easy Share Flip Pin Email•••By Justin Pritchard Updated February 14, 2017In banking, ACH stands for Automated Clearing House, which is a network used for electronic payments and money transfers. ACH is a way to move money between banks without using paper checks, wire transfers, credit card networks, or cash. References to ACH can mean several things, depending where you see it. On your bank statements (or transaction history), ACH means that an electronic payment was made to or from your account using your checking account information. Common examples of ACH transfers are listed below. In order for any ACH transfer to move funds to or from your account, you need to authorize those transfers and provide your bank account and routing numbers. On your bills, ACH means you have the option to pay your bills electronically. Sometimes these payments are known as e Checks, EFT, or similar. Instead of writing a check or entering a credit card number, you can provide your checking account details and have funds pulled directly from your account."

"text": "\"“It’s Anticholinergic” – What Does That Mean? By The Carlat Psychiatry Report ~ 1 min read Anticholinergic-speak is endemic in psychiatry. Since it’s unlikely to go away, we invite you to buff up your knowledge of acetylcholine (ACh) and to review the many ways in which it makes an appearance in clinical practice. In medical school pharmacology courses, many of us were taught about cholinergic effects with the mnemonic “SLUD”: Salivation, Lacrimation, Urination, Defecation. I suggest augmenting this with a “C” standing for “Cognition.” If ACh facilitates SLUDC, drugs that are anticholinergic – for example, the tricyclics, Paxil (paroxetine), Cogentin (benztropine), Artane (trihexyphenydil), and Benadryl (diphenhydramine) – are “Anti-SLUD-C.” This means that they cause dry mouth, dry eyes (and blurry vision), urinary retention, constipation, and confusion. It’s a little more complicated, because there are actually two different ACh receptor types: muscarinic receptors, which mediate the SLUD part of SLUDC, and nicotinic, which mediate the procognitive, or “C,” part of the mnemonic. We hear a bit about nicotinic receptors in promotional talks for Razadyne (galantamine), a cholinesterase inhibitor that has the added property of modulating nicotinic receptors. We’ll also hear a whole lot more about these receptors due to the recent FDA approval of Pfizer’s Chantix (varenicline), a nicotinic receptor partial agonist that appears to be twice as effective as Zyban (bupropion) for smoking cessation. How does ACh relate to antipsychotic medications?"

"text": "Posted by Smart Drugs | Aug 24, 2015 | Comments Off on ACETYLCHOLINE: WHAT IS IT AND HOW DOES IT WORK? Acetylcholine: What is it and How Does it Work? Acetylcholine (frequently abbreviated ACh) is the most widely spread neurotransmitter – chemical messenger assisting in carrying signals across the nerve synapse. It is the most plentiful neurotransmitter, which may be found in both the peripheral and central nervous systems (Vanden Bos, 2007). Acetylcholine used to be the primary neurotransmitter to be discovered. This neurotransmitter was found by Henry Hallett Dale in the year 1914 and its existence was confirmed by Otto Loewi (Vanden Bos, 2007). It is helpful to think of neurotransmitters as messengers of the brain. These chemicals, which originate within the body, assist in delivering messages from one neuron to another. Basically, neurons that use acetylcholine to send the messages are recognized as cholinergic neurons. The pathway for their communication is the synapse."

An ACH transfer refers to any electronic movement of money between different banks that goes through the Automated Clearing House network, one of the biggest U. S. payment systems. An ACH transfer is an electronic, bank-to-bank transfer processed by the Automated Clearing House network. The types of transfers include external funds transfers, person-to-person payments, bill payments and direct deposits from employers and government benefit programs. For sending money to friends and family, many transfer providers — including banks and third-party apps like Pay Pal and Venmo — use the ACH network. Types of ACH transfers ACH transfers get processed in two ways, which vary in delivery speed and cost: ACH debit transactions involve money getting “pulled” from an account. When you set up a recurring bill payment, for example, the company you’re paying can pull what it’s owed from your account each month."

Lost in the seemingly endless options are the details of how those payments are actually executed, and what are the benefits & risks associated with making payments with each of these options. A common topic we receive a lot of questions about is related to ACH & Wire transfers. Lets dive a bit deeper. What does ACH stand for? How does it work? The Automated Clearinghouse, or ACH, is a system created by the Federal Reserve Bank to transfer funds between accounts. ACH can be used for transferring funds between your own accounts, sending or receiving payments with vendors and clients, or even bulk sending or receiving a large number of payments with customers. How is a wire transfer different than an ACH transfer? ACH transfers and wire transfers are methods of moving funds from one bank account to another."

"text": "Learn the Ins and Outs of Setting Up ACH Billing for Your Small Business If you’re considering setting up ACH billing for your business, there are some important things you should know about before beginning the process. Here, we’ll take you through the top ACH billing facts you should be aware of before taking the leap.1. ACH billing tends to have lower transaction fees Not always, but typically this can be true if the company or processor is charging a flat transaction fee. The larger your average ticket, the more the savings. For example, if your average ticket runs at $50, a credit card transaction fee with a rate of 2.3% can be $1.45. However, an ACH billing transaction can be a flat $0.55. For a $100 transaction, the difference is $2.60 vs. $0.55. Over a year with, say, 1,000 transactions that’s a difference of $2600 vs. $550. Or with a $200 average ticket and 2,000 annual transactions, $9,800 vs. $1,100. As another added benefit from setting up ACH billing, you do not have to worry about incurring a non-qualified surcharge on transactions—the flat rate is the flat rate."

"text": "The Statute Of Limitations On Debts July 28, 2012 by Paul Ritz Tweet Share Pin Share +1 1 Stumble1If you ever wondered whether or not there is a statute of limitations (SOL) on debts, the short answer is “yes.” Unfortunately, this short answer can be misleading as almost all the fifty states have different statutes of limitations on different kinds of debts. For example, in Texas, the statute of limitations on written contracts, oral agreements, promissory notes and open-ended accounts is the same – four years. But in Arizona, it’s 6, 3, 5 and 5 years respectively. And in Indiana, it’s 10 years on written contracts, 6 on oral agreements, 10 on promissory notes and 6 years on open-ended accounts. What is a statute of limitations? A statute of limitations is a period of years after which a creditor can no longer sue you to collect on your debt. Its purpose is to safeguard you from the worry of being sued by a creditor forever. However, this does not prevent a creditor from suing you. If a creditor does file suit, you can request that the case is dismissed on the grounds of “expired time.”"

By Chloe Lewis; Updated September 11, 2015Many ways to transfer money Consumers can transfer money from their banks in a variety of ways. There are paper transfers by writing checks, electronic funds transfers, direct deposit, and wire transfers, among others. Once you have selected a transfer method, it is important to locate the information necessary to ensure that your transfer is routed properly. Paper (check) Transfers Paper checks are negotiable instruments directing your financial institution to transfer a specified amount in a specified currency to the payee indicated on the draft. At the bottom of the check are a series of numbers. Typically, within this series of numbers will be the number of the check, the account number at the bank, and the remaining 9-digit number is the bank’s ABA (American Bankers Association) number. This number is used by the institution cashing your check to contact the institution and/or branch where your account is located to request the money from the check. Electronic Funds Transfers Electronic transfers, such as electronic bill pay or online money transfers, are similar to checks. For paper transfers, the bank is identified through the ABA number."

Many types of payments are made using the Automated Clearing House, including direct deposits, tax payments and bill payments. If you see an ACH transaction on your bank statement, it indicates that an electronic transfer of funding has been paid either to or from your bank account. Most consumers establish ACH transactions as a normal part of their monthly banking routine. ACH transactions may be authorized to make a payment for a loan – or other account – one time or on a recurring basis.

Laine Related Articles1Does Chlorine Gas Have a Negative Effect on the Environment?2Short-Term & Long-Term Effects of Chemical Pollution3Environmental Problems Associated With the Combustion of Hydrocarbons4Environmental Pollution Caused by Factories Water pollution can have dire consequences for plants, animals and even ecosystems as a whole. The specific effects vary depending on what pollutants enter the environment. Sometimes, water pollution causes an explosion of new plant growth by providing necessary nutrients and food. Other times, it can harm or kill plants by changing growing conditions, such as by raising or lowering the environment’s acidity. Fertilizers Plants must take in nutrients from the surrounding environment to grow. Nitrogen and phosphorous, in particular, encourage growth because they are instrumental in photosynthesis. This is why they are common ingredients in plant fertilizers. When agricultural runoff pollutes waterways with nitrogen- and phosphorous-rich fertilizers, the nutrient-enriched waters often see blooms of growth. Sometimes, too much growth can be harmful, as when plant-like algae bloom in polluted waters and create oxygen-depleted dead zones. One solution is to plant seaweed farms in areas that get a lot of farm runoff."

"text": "Science & Mathematics Chemistry Acid rain what is acid rain and what gas causes it? Follow 9 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The primary causes of acid rain are sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These chemicals are released by certain industrial processes. Once the tiny pollutant molecules have entered the atmosphere, they can travel for thousands of miles. Eventually, the particles will combine with other compounds to produce new, often harmful, chemicals. These harmful chemicals mixes with water droplets in the atmosphere and comes down to the earth in the form of acidic, rain, snow, hail, fog, frost, or dew. Once it reaches the ground, the acidity in the substance can harm and even destroy both natural ecosystems and man-made products, such as car finishes.

The ongoing industrialization of society has resulted in the increased release of acidic chemicals into the atmosphere. These chemicals are deposited as acid rain, impacting lakes, forests and human health. Description Wet deposition refers to rain, snow, hail, drizzle and other familiar forms of visible precipitation. Dry deposition, mostly invisible, occurs through gravitational settling of large particles, and the uptake of gases and small particles at the Earth's surface. Rain and other precipitation may be defined as acidic or alkaline (basic) depending on the chemical composition."

"text": "\"navigation search This article is part of the Coal Issues portal on Source Watch, a project of Coal Swarm and the Center for Media and Democracy. See here for help on adding material to Coal Swarm. Coal-fired power plants are the largest human-caused source of sulfur dioxide, a pollutant gas that contributes to the production of acid rain and causes significant health problems, particularly through its role in forming particulates. Coal naturally contains sulfur, and when coal is burned, the sulfur combines with oxygen to form sulfur oxides. Although natural processes like volcanic eruptions, biological decomposition, and forest fires also produce sulfur dioxide, emissions caused by human activity far exceed natural production in developed countries. [ 1]The EPA estimates that more than 65%, or over 13 million tons per year, of SO 2 production in the U. S. comes from electric utilities, [2] 93 percent of which is produced by coal power plants. [ 3] In China, the world’s largest consumer of coal, approximately 22.5 million tons of sulfur were released in 2004, and over 30% of the country now experiences acid rainfall. [ 4]Acid rain is rain saturated with chemicals like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide, which causes acidification of lakes and streams and contributes to the damage of trees at high elevations and many sensitive forest soils. In addition, acid rain accelerates the decay of building materials and paints, including irreplaceable buildings, statues, and sculptures that are part of our nation's cultural heritage. Prior to falling to the earth, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide gases and their particulate matter derivatives—sulfates and nitrates—contribute to visibility degradation and harm public health. ["

Not all fish, shellfish, or the insects that they eat can tolerate the same amount of acid. An ecosystem is a community of plants, animals and other organisms along with their environment including the air, water and soil. Everything in an ecosystem is connected. If something harms one part of an ecosystem – one species of plant or animal, the soil or the water – it can have an impact on everything else. Effects of Acid Rain on Fish and Wildlife The ecological effects of acid rain are most clearly seen in aquatic environments, such as streams, lakes, and marshes where it can be harmful to fish and other wildlife. As it flows through the soil, acidic rain water can leach aluminum from soil clay particles and then flow into streams and lakes. The more acid that is introduced to the ecosystem, the more aluminum is released. Some types of plants and animals are able to tolerate acidic waters and moderate amounts of aluminum. Others, however, are acid-sensitive and will be lost as the p H declines."

"text": "Nitrogen Oxides and Nitric Acid NOXious Gases The oxides of nitrogen, nitric oxide, NO, and nitrogen dioxide, NO 2, are both collectively known as NOx, and are familiar as one of the several components of automobile exhaust that create smog. In the hot combustion chambers of a car's engine, N 2 and O 2 react together to form NO. This process is normally unfavourable, but at high temperatures in the combustion chamber the reaction proceeds rapidly. The NO passes into the exhaust with the other gases, and then cools so rapidly that the NO can't revert back into nitrogen and oxygen again, because the reaction rate becomes too slow at these lower temperatures. Once released into the atmosphere, NO reacts to form NO 2, which is familiar as the brown hazy colour of smog which is often seen clinging above modern cities. The problem gets worse, however, since NO 2 can then be split apart by ultra-violet radiation from the sun, to produce oxygen atoms. These then react with oxygen molecules to make ozone. On calm days during summer, this ozone can build up close to the ground in cities, causing numerous respiratory problems among pedestrians. Cats and Acid Rain To combat the problems of smog, cars are increasingly being fitted with catalytic converters ('cats'), which mix air with the exhaust gases, over an appropriate catalyst (usually a rare metal like platinum or palladium) and promote oxidation of unburnt fuel to CO 2. They also cause the decomposition of nitrogen oxides back to harmless N 2 and O 2."

Respiratory diseases like asthma or chronic bronchitis make it hard for people to breathe. The pollution that causes acid rain can also create tiny particles. When these particles get into people’s lungs, they can cause health problems, or can make existing health problems worse. Also, nitrogen oxides cause ground-level ozone. This ground-level ozone causes respiratory problems, like pneumonia and bronchitis , and can even cause permanent lung damage. The health effects that people have to worry about are not caused by the acid rain, but are caused when people breathe in these tiny particles or ozone. Swimming in an acidic lake or walking in an acidic puddle is no more harmful to people than swimming or walking in clean water. Acid Rain Harms Forests Acid rain can be extremely harmful to forests. Acid rain that seeps into the ground can dissolve nutrients, such as magnesium and calcium, that trees need to be healthy."

Depending on where you live, maybe you've heard of acid rain. Now, acid rain is not pure acid falling from the sky, but rather it is rainfall or atmospheric moisture that has been mixed with elements and gases that have caused the moisture to become more acidic than normal. Pure water has a p H of 7, and, generally, rainfall is somewhat on the acidic side (a bit less than 6). But, acid rain can have a p H of about 5.0-5.5, and can even be in the 4 range in the northeastern United States, where there are a lot of industries and cars. Causes of acid rain Acidic precipitation can be caused by natural (volcanoes) and man-made activities, such as from cars and in the generation of electricity. The precursors, or chemical forerunners, of acid rain formation result from both natural sources, such as volcanoes and decaying vegetation, and man-made sources, primarily emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO 2) and nitrogen oxides (NO x) resulting from fossil fuel combustion. The burning of fossil fuels (coal and oil) by power-production companies and industries releases sulfur into the air that combines with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ). Exhausts from cars cause the formation of nitrogen oxides in the air. From these gases, airborne sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4) and nitric acid (HNO 3) can be formed and be dissolved in the water vapor in the air."

The smoke that comes from a fire or the fumes that come out of a car exhaust don't just contain the sooty grey particles that you can see - they also contains lots of invisible gases that can be even more harmful to our environment.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Parthenos sylvia mud-puddling at the edge of a forest stream Mud-puddling, or simply puddling, is a behaviour most conspicuous in butterflies, but occurs in other animals as well, mainly insects; they seek out certain moist substances such as rotting plant matter, mud and carrion and they suck up the fluid. Where the conditions are suitable, conspicuous insects such as butterflies commonly form aggregations on wet soil, dung or carrion. [ 1] From the fluids they obtain nutrients such as salts and amino acids that play various roles in their physiology, ethology and ecology. [ 2] [3] This behaviour also has been seen in some other insects, notably the leafhoppers, e.g. the potato leafhopper, Empoasca fabae. [ 4]Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths) are diverse in their strategies to gather liquid nutrients. Typically, mud-puddling behavior takes place on wet soil. But even sweat on human skin may be attractive to butterflies such as species of Halpe. [ 5] [6] More unusual sources include blood and tears. Again, similar behaviour is not limited to the Lepidoptera, and for example, the various species of bees commonly called sweat bees are attracted to various kinds of sweat and tears, including that of humans, and other bee species have been recorded as doing so to various degrees. [ 7] [8]In many species puddling behaviour is more commonly seen in males; for example, Speyeria mormonia males puddle with a much higher frequency than females. ["

"text": "Home Periodic table Elements and water Aluminium in water (AL + H2O)Aluminum (Al) and water Aluminum and water: reaction mechanisms, environmental impact and health effects The amount of aluminum in seawater varies between approximately 0.013 and 5 ppb. The Atlantic Ocean is known to contain more aluminum than the Pacific Ocean. River water generally contains about 400 ppb of aluminum. Aluminum mainly occurs as Al 3+ (aq) under acidic conditions, and as Al (OH) 4 - (aq) under neutral to alkalic conditions. Other forms include Al OH 2 + (aq) en Al (OH) 3 (aq). In what way and in what form does aluminum react with water? Aluminum metal rapidly develops a thin layer of aluminum oxide of a few millimeters that prevents the metal from reacting with water. When this layer is corroded a reaction develops, releasing highly flammable hydrogen gas. Aluminum chloride hydrolyses in water, and forms a mist when it comes in contact with air, because hydrochloric acid drops form when it reacts with water vapor. Aluminum ions in other compounds also hydrolyze, and this continues until the cationic charge has run out, ending the reaction by hydroxide formation."

Often they have a hard calcareous layer at 0.5 to 1 metre depth. Alkali soils owe their unfavorable physico-chemical properties mainly to the dominating presence of sodium carbonate, which causes the soil to swell [1] and difficult to clarify/settle. They derive their name from the alkali metal group of elements, to which sodium belongs, and which can induce basicity. Sometimes these soils are also referred to as alkaline sodic soils. Alkaline soils are basic, but not all basic soils are alkaline.

[ 2] Within the 73% more emissions it was found that Canadian companies contributed 29% more respiratory toxins into the air than the U. S.\"\" [2] While Canadian businesses may release more emissions than those in the U. S, overall emissions have decreased in the past few years. This can be evidenced with Environment Canada's 2010 document named Air Pollutant Emission Summaries and Historical Emission Trends. [ 3] This report found that 2010 emissions, when compared to 2009 emissions, saw an overall decrease.

The good thing is that volcanic soil is very rich, so once everything cools off, plants can make a big comeback!Livestock and other mammals have been killed by lava flows, pyroclastic flows, tephra falls, atmospheric effects, gases, and tsunami. They can also die from famine, forest fires, and earthquakes caused by or related to eruptions. Mount St. Helens provides an example. The Washington Department of Game estimated that 11,000 hares, 6,000 deer, 5,200 elk, 1,400 coyotes, 300 bobcats, 200 black bears, and 15 mountain lions died from the pyroclastic flows of the 1980 eruption. Aquatic life can be affected by an increase in acidity, increased turbidity, change in temperature, and/or change in food supply. These factors can damage or kill fish. Eruptions can influence bird migration, roosting, flying ability, and feeding activity. The impact of eruptions on insects depends on the size of the eruption and the stage of growth of the insect."

"text": "Clean Air Act The Clean Air Act was major legislation passed to control air pollution in the United States. The Act was passed in 1963, but important and major amendments were added to the original Act in 1970 and 1990. This Act implements a comprehensive program for reducing air pollution focusing on the reduction of ambient (that which is present in the open air) and source specific (that which can be traced to identifiable sources, such as factories and automobiles) air pollution. The Clean Air Act was incorporated into the United States Code as Title 42, Chapter 85. The Clean Air Act, 1963 was a legislation that offered federal research aid, urged the development of state control agencies, and involved the federal government in inter-state pollution issues. The 1965 amendment required the U. S. Department of Health, Education and Services to create and enforce auto emission standards. This was the federal government’s first active role in clean air policy. But it was the Clean Air Act of 1970 that for the first time granted real power to the federal government instead of the states. The 1970 Clean Air Act forms the basis of the U. S. air pollution control policy. It has four major components: i) it put into place National Ambient Air Quality Standards which are intended to protect human health and environment (the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) developed these standards and they targeted major polluting chemicals); ii) EPA was to establish New Source Performance Standards to determine how much pollution should be allowed by different industries in different regions; iii) The Act specified standards for controlling auto emissions, aiming at reduction of various gases by almost 90 percent; and iv) the law encouraged states to develop plans to achieve these standards and required that those state plans should be approved by EPA."

This means that p H of water is not a physical parameter that can be measured as a concentration or in a quantity. Instead, it is a figure between 0 and 14 defining how acidic or basic a body of water is along a logarithmic scale ¹. The lower the number, the more acidic the water is. The higher the number, the more basic it is. A p H of 7 is considered neutral. The logarithmic scale means that each number below 7 is 10 times more acidic than the previous number when counting down. Likewise, when counting up above 7, each number is 10 times more basic than the previous number ². The logarithmic scale of p H means that as p H increases, the H+ concentration will decrease by a power of 10. Thus at a p H of 0, H+ has a concentration of 1 M. At a p H of 7, this decreases to 0.0000001 M. At a p H of 14, there is only 0.00000000000001 M H+.p H stands for the “power of hydrogen” ³. The numerical value of p H is determined by the molar concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) ³. This is done by taking the negative logarithm of the H+ concentration (-log (H+)). For example, if a solution has a H+ concentration of 10 -3 M, the p H of the solution will be -log (10 -3 ), which equals 3."

Processes involved in acid deposition (note that only SO 2 and NO x play a significant role in acid rain). Acid clouds can grow on SO 2 emissions from refineries, as seen here in Curaçao. Acid rain is a rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic, meaning that it has elevated levels of hydrogen ions (low p H ). It can have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals and infrastructure. Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide, which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids. Some governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce the release of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide into the atmosphere with positive results. Nitrogen oxides can also be produced naturally by lightning strikes, and sulfur dioxide is produced by volcanic eruptions. Acid rain has been shown to have adverse impacts on forests, freshwaters and soils, killing insect and aquatic life-forms, causing paint to peel, corrosion of steel structures such as bridges, and weathering of stone buildings and statues as well as having impacts on human health.

"text": "Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Science Chemistry Elements and Compounds How would calcium carbonate get affected by acid rain? Flag How would calcium carbonate get affected by acid rain? Answer by Chemistryteacher Confidence votes 304Calcium carbonate chemically reacts with acids (the main acid in acid rain is sulphuric acid formed from sulphur dioxide emissions) to form a salt (e.g. calcium sulphate) + water + carbon dioxide gas. So what you see is 'fizzing' as the gas is evolved, and eventually the rock will disappear or dissolve. This is because the salt produced is water soluble and is therefore washed away with the water (erosion). In this way acid rain can easily destroy the details on relief work (e.g, the faces on a statue) of calcium carbonate (marble and limestone) structures. This process called chemical weathering.3 people found this useful Was this answer useful? Yes Somewhat No How does calcium carbonate neutralize acid rain from affecting organisms? Ca Co3 is a base, so it neutralizes acids. Thus, Ca Co3 can neutralize acids in acid rain."

"text": "What is Acid Rain? Acid rain is rainfall that has been acidified. Rain is acidified by oxides of sulfur and nitrogen. Acid rain usually has a p H of less than 5.6. Acid rain is formed when pollutants called oxides of sulfur and nitrogen, contained in power plant smoke, factory smoke, and car exhaust, react with the moisture in the atmosphere. Dry deposition, such as soot and ash, sleet, hail, snow, smog and low level ozone are forms that acid rain can take, despite its name. What causes Acid Rain? Acid rain can be caused by many things. Industrial emissions from factories and power plants that burn fuels such as natural gas, coal or oil, emit smoke that gives off oxides of sulfur and nitrogen is one cause. Another cause is vehicles (e.g. cars, buses) that burn gasoline and diesel."

"text": "What is Acid-Test Ratio? An acid-test ratio, also known as a quick ratio, is a financial measure of a company’s ability to pay off its current liabilities – that is, any debt that will need to be repaid within a year, such as credit card charges and accounts payable. The acid-test indicates whether a business can pay off such debt immediately using cash or current assets. It’s one measure of a company’s short-term financial health. Calculation To calculate a company’s acid-test ratio, use this formula: Acid-test ratio = (cash + accounts receivables + short-term investments)/current liabilities Essentially, you add all the available liquid assets – money that the company could tap into in a pinch – and divide it by the amount of short-term debt the company has. What Does it Mean? Acid-test ratios less than 1 may mean the company does not currently have sufficient current assets to cover its current liabilities. But not always. Retail businesses typically have very low acid-test ratios because they are heavily invested in inventory. That inventory dependence drives up their current liabilities but does not necessarily mean that they are financially troubled."

But did you know you can use them to blow up a balloon? When you put vinegar and baking soda together, you get a chemical reaction, and this chemical reaction produces carbon dioxide gas. A chemical reaction happens when one set of substances (called the reactants) transforms into different substances (called the products). When scientists talk or write about chemical reactions, they usually write them like this: Reactants --------------> Products Chemical reactions happen everywhere, all around us. When you digest your food, your body performs chemical reactions to turn your food into energy. When you sit beside a campfire and enjoy its warmth, you are being warmed by a chemical reaction. Sometimes these chemical reactions happen slowly, but sometimes they are fast and violent. One type of chemical reaction happens between acids and bases. An acid is a substance that releases hydrogen ions (usually written as H+) when mixed in solution (that is, when it is in liquid form, like when you mix it in water)."

Answered by The Wiki Answers ®Community Answers.com ® is making the world better one answer at a time.p H is the measure of the acidity or alkalinity p H means the power of Hydrogen. It is 'minus the decimal logarithm of the hydrogen ion activity in an aqueous solution'. The term was coined by Sørensen, it measures the alkalinity or acidity of a liquid. p H is a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions [H+] in a solution. The concentration of the hydrogen ions is measured in Molarity (M), or moles of H+ ions per liter of solution. The p H is then expressed as the negative log (base ten) of the hydrogen ion concentration. p H = -log [H+] For example, if a solution has a hydrogen ion concentration of 4.75 x 10-5 M (or 4.75 x 10-5 moles of H+ ions per liter of solution), then the p H of the solution would be -log [4.75 x 10-5] = 4.323 p H is generally given on a scale from 0-14, with 0 being the most acidic solution (like HCl) and 14 being the most basic solution (for example, Na OH. ), although extreme values may sometimes fall outside that range."

Fats are very efficient energy-storage molecules. They store over twice the amount of chemical energy per unit of weight than do carbohydrates or proteins. That means to store the energy available in 5 Kg of fat, you'd have to carry 10 Kg of carbohydrates in your body. Three (typically) long chain fatty acid molecules (14+ carbon units) and one glycerol molecule, a 3-carbon sugar, are combined via ester bonds, to form one triglyceride molecule. Below is a simple diagram of two 18-carbon fatty acids. The carboxyl groups in red are what makes them \"\"acids,\"\" though they are, in fact, very weak acids. They will not burn your skin like a strong acid (H2SO4) will."

A: Quick Answer A high level of folic acid or folate in the blood indicates a person eats a diet that is high in folic acid, takes vitamins, takes folic acid pills or has a vitamin B12 deficiency, states Web MD. Having too much folic acid in the blood is not a dangerous condition and does not cause other health issues. Continue Reading Keep Learning What Does a High Folate Level Mean? What Does It Mean When Your Folate Levels Are Too High? What Does a High MPV in Blood Mean? Full Answer The reason high folate levels are found in people who have a vitamin B12 deficiency is the body needs vitamin B12 to use folate, explains Web MD. When vitamin B12 levels are not within a normal range, the cells in the body cannot use folic acid, allowing it to build up in the bloodstream. However, a folic acid test is not the proper test to find a vitamin B12 deficiency. A low folate level can indicate diet issues, an eating disorder or alcohol dependency, according to Web MD."

It a complex type of arthritis and it can cause burning pain, tenderness, soreness and redness in the affected joint. The most common joint to be affected is the joint near the big toe. The person having gout can experience a sudden attack of pain which causes burning sensation in the affected region. Gout occurs when an excess of uric acid starts accumulating in the blood. This uric acid starts to form crystals in the joints and the joints start to inflame. The chances of getting gout increase if a person is taking a lot of alcohol, meat, and fish which has purines. If left untreated, gout can reoccur several times and deform the joint completely. It can also lead to deposition of urate crystals in other joints and under the skin. Kidney stones are also likely to develop."

Your stomach is located at the end of your esophagus and is the terminus for swallowed food and drink. The stomach receives chewed food and continues to mechanically and chemically break it down into smaller pieces, creating more surface area for your small intestine to absorb nutrients. Your stomach is an acidic environment with a low p H of between 1 and 3. Parietal cells in the wall of the stomach secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl). If your esophageal sphincter; basically the lid to your stomach; isn’t closed properly, HCl will creep into your esophagus resulting in heartburn. HCl has a few different jobs. One, is to kill bacteria or other potentially dangerous pathogens you may have unknowingly ingested with your food. Another is to convert pepsinogen into pepsin."

[ 9] The ACLU works through litigation and lobbying, and it has over 1,200,000 members and an annual budget of over $100 million. Local affiliates of the ACLU are active in almost all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. The ACLU provides legal assistance in cases when it considers civil liberties to be at risk. Legal support from the ACLU can take the form of direct legal representation or preparation of amicus curiae briefs expressing legal arguments when another law firm is already providing representation. In addition to representing persons and organizations in lawsuits, the ACLU lobbies for policy positions that have been established by its board of directors. Current positions of the ACLU include: opposing the death penalty; supporting same-sex marriage and the right of LGBT people to adopt; supporting birth control and abortion rights; eliminating discrimination against women, minorities, and LGBT people; supporting the rights of prisoners and opposing torture; and opposing government preference for religion over non-religion, or for particular faiths over others. Legally, the ACLU consists of two separate but closely affiliated nonprofit organizations: the American Civil Liberties Union, a 501 (c) (4) social welfare group, and the ACLU Foundation, a 501 (c) (3) public charity. Both organizations engage in civil rights litigation, advocacy, and education, but only donations to the 501 (c) (3) foundation are tax deductible, and only the 501 (c) (4) group can engage in unlimited political lobbying.

Now contrast that depiction with ACLU founder Roger Baldwin’s candid vision: I am for socialism, disarmament, and, ultimately, for abolishing the state itself… I seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class, and the sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal. Ironic, isn’t it? So much for “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” By combining straightforward segments from each ACLU rendering we arrive with an accurate portrayal."

"text": "Scopes Trialfacebook twitter linkedin pinterest print By J. Kingston Pierce 6/12/2006 • American History Magazine Scopes Trial Summary: The Scopes Trial, commonly referred to as the Scopes Evolution Trial or the Scopes Monkey trial, began on July 10th, 1925. The defendant, John Thomas Scopes, was a high school coach and substitute teacher who had been charged with violating the Butler Act by teaching the theory of evolution in his classes. The Butler Act forbid the teaching of any theory that denied the biblical story of Creationism. By teaching that man had descended from apes, the theory of evolution, Scopes was charged with breaking the law. The trial took place in Dayton, Tennessee, and was the result of a carefully orchestrated series of events that were intended to bring publicity, and therefore money, into the town by a group of local businessmen. In reality, Scopes was unsure of whether he had ever technically taught the theory of evolution, but he had reviewed the chapter in the evolution chapter in the textbook with students, and he agreed to incriminate himself so that the Butler Act could be challenged by the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union). Several students were encouraged to testify against Scopes at the trial. The Scopes Trial brought in hundreds of reporters from all over the country, and it was the first trial to be broadcast on radio. Both the prosecuting attorney and Scopes’ defense attorney were charismatic men and drew significant attention to the case, which for the defense was more about defeating the Butler Act then about defending Scopes. Scopes was found guilty and charged a fine of $100, but the verdict was thrown out on a technicality on an appeal."

In a federal lawsuit filed Tuesday in Cleveland federal court, John Mancini and the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless, or NEOCH, say two Cleveland ordinances that criminalize panhandling are unconstitutional, content-based restrictions on free speech. “Cleveland is aggressively charging poor, and homeless, residents with a crime if it catches them asking for help,” ACLU attorneys say in a memorandum accompanying the complaint. “ These ordinances were expressly crafted to drive a disliked form of speech (panhandling) and speaker (homeless or very poor individuals) from public view.” ( Parentheses in original. ) Mancini and NEOCH seek a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction enjoining the city of Cleveland from enforcing its anti-panhandling ordinances. The lawsuit names as defendants the city, Mayor Frank Jackson and Chief of Police Calvin Williams. The lawsuit claims the Cleveland Police Department has issued over 5,800 tickets for violations of the anti-panhandling ordinances between 2007 and 2015. These laws allegedly target the homeless and destitute who generally cannot afford to pay the associated fines, so they often end up being jailed. Mancini is a disabled veteran who says he typically sits quietly on a sidewalk or stands alongside a roadway holding a cardboard sign that reads, “wartime vet; can you please help a vet trying to get by; your help appreciated."

Verizon is the only one of the top four carriers that retains text message content, however, and it keeps that for three to five days. Call detail records, meanwhile, are retained for one year by Verizon, five years for T-Mobile (two years for pre-paid), five to seven years for AT&T, and 18 to 24 months for Sprint.

It was the first trial to be covered on the radio. Hundreds of reporters showed up in Dayton, Tennessee, from all over the world. The monkey trial became a media circus. The trial ended on July 24. William Jennings Bryan died in Dayton on July 26. With this, the American fundamentalist movement went into political hibernation for half a century, coming out of its sleep fifty-one years later in the Ford-Carter Presidential race. There is a great deal of confusion about the details of the trial, but not its fundamental point: the legitimacy of teaching Darwinism in tax-funded schools, kindergarten through high school. On this point, all sides agree: the trial was a showdown between Darwinism and fundamentalism. What is not recognized is the far greater importance of the far more important underlying agreement, an agreement that had steadily increased for half a century by 1925 and still prevails: the legitimacy of tax-supported education."

Tom Barrett trained as a pharmacist in the Army in the mid-1980s and continued the work after leaving the service in 1990, holding his last job with a national drugstore chain in Augusta, Georgia. His expertise did not lend immunity to certain pitfalls. Barrett grew addicted to a steady supply of opioid painkillers Army doctors gave him for lower-back pain, though eventually the problem turned out to be kidney stones, which were blasted away with shock waves. But the pill-monkey remained on his back. Barrett, 53, battled it for years, supplementing with alcohol. After a 2007 car crash—sober and no drugs, blood tests would show—in which he suffered multiple skull fractures that left him in a coma, Barrett lost grasp on the fragile normalcy he'd managed to maintain as a husband and father of three now-grown men. He wound up divorced, homeless and broke, and in April 2012 he was arrested for stealing a $2 can of beer from an Augusta convenience store. Though not sentenced to time behind bars, his inability to pay a $200 fine would lead to him cycling in and out of jail, initially for almost two months, despite the fact that U. S. and state constitutional protections prohibit such punishment. Someone with means would have walked out of the courtroom free."

This type of censorship violates the First Amendment to the U. S. Constitution and Article First, Sections 4 and 5, of the Constitution of Connecticut. The letter asks for written assurance from school officials that all students will be permitted to wear shirts bearing the same message or similar ones in the future. Seth wore the T-shirt on Friday, April 20, 2012, which was designated a Day of Silence at Wolcott High School as part of a national movement to raise awareness of bullying and harassment of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered people. One side of the shirt depicted a rainbow - the commonly recognized symbol of gay rights - with a slash through it. The other side showed a male stick figure and a female stick figure holding hands above the legend, \"\"Excessive Speech Day.\"\" According to Seth, he was ordered to remove the T-shirt and did so under protest. Seth intended the shirt to express his dislike for gay marriage and his opposition to the school's perceived message during the Day of Silence.

"text": "\"Our Next Meeting: April 18, 2006 at the SORC Office in Talley at 6:30 pm About the ACLU at NC State Who started ACLU? The ACLU was founded by Roger Baldwin, Crystal Eastman, Albert De Silver and others in 1920. Why did they start it? In response to the delapadated state of civil liberties in the 1920's, the organization was founded to protect America’s original civic values - the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. In the 1920's \"\"ACLU fought the campaign of harassment and deportation ordered by U. S. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer against politically radical immigrants, supported the right of Industrial Workers of the World members and other trade unionists to hold meetings and organize, and secured the release of hundreds of activists imprisoned for their anti-war views and activities.\"\" Till this day, it not only works to safeguard rights such as freedom of speech, equal protection under the law, due process, and privacy, but also works to gain rights for segments of the population which have traditionally been denied many basic rights under the law. The ACLU believes strongly that if the rights of society’s most vulnerable members are denied, everybody’s rights are imperiled. How many members are in ACLU? There are nearly 400,000 members and supporters across the nation. In the NCSU Chapter, there are currently about 10 active members and 40 supporters that are involved through our listserve."

Sensenbrenner, Jr. ( R – WI) on October 23, 2001Committee consideration by United States House Committee on the Judiciary; Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence; Committee on Financial Services; Committee on International Relations; Committee on Energy and Commerce (Subcommittee on Telecommunications and the Internet); Committee on Education and the Workforce; Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure; Committee on Armed Services Passed the House on October 24, 2001 ( Yeas: 357; Nays: 66)Passed the Senate on October 25, 2001 ( Yeas: 98; Nays: 1)Signed into law by President George W. Bush on October 26, 2001The history of the USA PATRIOT Act involved many parties who opposed and supported the legislation, which was proposed, enacted and signed into law 45 days after the September 11 terrorist attacks in 2001. The USA PATRIOT Act, though approved by large majorities in the U. S. Senate and House of Representative, was controversial, and parts of the law were invalidated or modified by successful legal challenges over constitutional infringements to civil liberties. The Act had several sunset provisions, most reauthorized by the USA PATRIOT Improvement and Reauthorization Act of 2005 and the USA PATRIOT Act Additional Reauthorizing Amendments Act. Both reauthorizations incorporated amendments to the original USA PATRIOT Act, and other federal laws. The catalyst for the USA PATRIOT Act occurred on September 11, 2001 when terrorists attacked and destroyed the World Trade Center in New York City and the western side of the Pentagon near Washington D. C. Within a few weeks of the September 11 attacks, a number of bills attempting to make changes to anti-terrorism laws were introduced into Congress. After the USA PATRIOT Act was passed it remained controversial, and began to be questioned by some members of Congress. A number of sections were struck by the courts. Some provisions were challenged by the ACLU, who filed a lawsuit on April 9, 2004."

By James Bovard • December 15, 2003Tweet On Dec. 6, 2001, Attorney General John Ashcroft informed the Senate Judiciary Committee, “To those who scare peace-loving people with phantoms of lost liberty … your tactics only aid terrorists, for they erode our national unity and … give ammunition to America’s enemies.” Some commentators feared that Ashcroft’s statement, which was vetted beforehand by top lawyers at the Justice Department, signaled that this White House would take a far more hostile view towards opponents than did recent presidents. And indeed, some Bush administration policies indicate that Ashcroft’s comment was not a mere throwaway line. When Bush travels around the United States, the Secret Service visits the location ahead of time and orders local police to set up “free speech zones” or “protest zones” where people opposed to Bush policies (and sometimes sign-carrying supporters) are quarantined. These zones routinely succeed in keeping protesters out of presidential sight and outside the view of media covering the event. When Bush came to the Pittsburgh area on Labor Day 2002, 65-year-old retired steel worker Bill Neel was there to greet him with a sign proclaiming, “The Bush family must surely love the poor, they made so many of us.” The local police, at the Secret Service’s behest, set up a “designated free-speech zone” on a baseball field surrounded by a chain-link fence a third of a mile from the location of Bush’s speech. The police cleared the path of the motorcade of all critical signs, though folks with pro-Bush signs were permitted to line the president’s path. Neel refused to go to the designated area and was arrested for disorderly conduct; the police also confiscated his sign."

NSA warrantless surveillance (also commonly referred to as \"\" warrantless-wiretapping \"\" or \"\" -wiretaps \"\") refers to the surveillance of persons within the United States, including United States citizens, during the collection of notionally foreign intelligence by the National Security Agency (NSA) as part of the Terrorist Surveillance Program. [ 1] The NSA was authorized to monitor, without obtaining a FISA warrant, the phone calls, Internet activity, text messages and other communication involving any party believed by the NSA to be outside the U. S., even if the other end of the communication lay within the U. S. Critics claimed that the program was an effort to silence critics of the Administration and its handling of several controversial issues. Under public pressure, the Administration allegedly ended the program in January 2007 and resumed seeking warrants from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC). [ 2] In 2008 Congress passed the FISA Amendments Act of 2008, which relaxed some of the original FISC requirements."

"text": "\"Driving While Black: Racial Profiling On Our Nation's Highways Facebook Twitter Reddit Email Print By David A. Harris, University of Toledo College of Law An American Civil Liberties Union Special Report June 1999INTRODUCTIONOn a hot summer afternoon in August 1998, 37-year-old U. S. Army Sergeant First Class Rossano V. Gerald and his young son Gregory drove across the Oklahoma border into a nightmare. A career soldier and a highly decorated veteran of Desert Storm and Operation United Shield in Somalia, SFC Gerald, a black man of Panamanian descent, found that he could not travel more than 30 minutes through the state without being stopped twice: first by the Roland City Police Department, and then by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol. During the second stop, which lasted two-and-half hours, the troopers terrorized SFC Gerald's 12-year-old son with a police dog, placed both father and son in a closed car with the air conditioning off and fans blowing hot air, and warned that the dog would attack if they attempted to escape. Halfway through the episode – perhaps realizing the extent of their lawlessness – the troopers shut off the patrol car's video evidence camera. Perhaps, too, the officers understood the power of an image to stir people to action. SFC Gerald was only an infant in 1963 when a stunned nation watched on television as Birmingham Police Commissioner \"\"Bull\"\" Connor used powerful fire hoses and vicious police attack dogs against nonviolent black civil rights protesters. That incident, and Martin Luther King, Jr.'s stirring I Have a Dream speech at the historic march on Washington in August of that year, were the low and high points, respectively, of the great era of civil rights legislation: the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the 1965 Voting Rights Act. How did it come to be, then, that 35 years later SFC Gerald found himself standing on the side of a dusty road next to a barking police dog, listening to his son weep while officers rummaged through his belongings simply because he was black? I feel like I'm a guy who's pretty much walked the straight line and that's respecting people and everything. We just constantly get harassed."

"text": "\"Home → Collections → Students Schools reminded that Pledge of Allegiance isn’t mandatory for students Courts: Students can opt out of Pledge of Allegiance as long as they remain quiet while others say it. April 26, 2010 | By Leslie Postal, Orlando Sentinel The Pledge of Allegiance is recited by school children across Florida most every weekday. It's a morning ritual — and a controversial slice of American history. The 118-year-old pledge, now 31 words long, has been the subject of debates, court fights and even riots. In Florida, if parents don't want their children participating in the pledge — for religious, personal or other reasons — they can opt them out with a written note. And those youngsters can sit as classmates stand and recite. The department's March memo noted that a 2008 federal court ruling — stemming from a Florida case — re-affirmed that schools cannot make students take part in the pledge or even stand while others recite it. The reminder reiterated a ruling in Frazier v. Winn means that a student, with parent permission, has \"\"the right to remain quietly seated during the pledge. \"\" The U. S. 11 t h Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta had called the section of Florida law that required \"\"standing at attention\"\" during the pledge unconstitutional. The Florida case involved an 11th-grader in a Palm Beach County school who sued in 2005 after he was \"\"punished and ridiculed\"\" by this teacher for refusing to stand while his classmates said the pledge, according to the American Civil Liberties Union of Florida."

The list has also been used to divert aircraft away from U. S. airspace that does not have start- or end-point destinations within the United States.

Senate Intelligence Committee chair Dianne Feinstein said in May 2010: \"\"The no-fly list itself is one of our best lines of defense.\"\" [ 2] However, the list has been criticized on civil liberties and due process grounds, due in part to its potential for ethnic, religious, economic, political, or racial profiling and discrimination.

A DACAN/DACNB specializes in the chiropractic treatment of conditions of the nervous system. There are two certification boards for chiropractic neurology. One is the American Chiropractic Neurology Board (ACNB), the other is the International Board of Chiropractic Neurology (IBCN). Both are qualified to certify a Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Academy of Neurology (DACAN) and a Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Neurology Board (DACNB). Each diplomate certificate involves the successful completion of a 3-year post-doctoral program. A DACAN/DACNB is expert at treating conditions including not only back pain, but also dizziness, fibromyalgia and IBS, among other conditions of the nervous system. The chiropractic neurologist uses techniques that involve both the body and the environment to improve the patient’s health. In particular, he or she is trying to improve the relationship between the body’s musculoskeletal and nervous systems. Dr. Ted Carrick is a key pioneer in the field."

The term \"\"D-Day\"\" has been used for many different operations, but it is now generally only used to refer to the Allied landings in Normandy on 6 June 1944. Why was the expression \"\"D-Day\"\" used? When a military operation is being planned, its actual date and time is not always known exactly."

"text": "\"Harvard Women's Health Watch Screening after age 75Published: November, 2011Screening guidelines often change after age 75. If you're in that age group, how do you decide which tests you need? If you're close to age 75, you may have followed the same schedule for mammograms, Pap smears, and other screening tests for decades. And if you're like many women, you may be surprised that your physician is suggesting fewer tests or longer intervals between them. The practice seems to fly in the face of conventional wisdom. After all, the risk for many degenerative diseases increases with age, so shouldn't older women be monitored even more closely? The answer is, \"\"It depends on the woman. \"\" By age 75, there's a growing disparity in \"\"biological\"\" age among women of the same chronological age. \"\" I have patients who are quite frail and others who are in better shape than many 50-year-olds,\"\" says Dr. Monera Wong, clinical director of the Geriatric Medicine Unit at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. Statistics back her up: at age 75, 25% of women live an average of 6.8 more years, 50% live an average of 11.9 more years, and 25% live an average of 17 more years."

"text": "#Health News November 17, 2011 / 11:21 AM / 6 years ago When does pregnancy begin? Doctors disagree Kerry Grens3 Min Read NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Though most doctors will give you a definition of when pregnancy begins, it’s not always the same one, according to a new survey. A child touches her pregnant mother's stomach at the last stages of her pregnancy in Bordeaux April 28, 2010. REUTERS/Regis Duvignau Most of the polled obstetrician-gynecologists believe pregnancy begins when the sperm fertilizes the egg. But a minority say it doesn’t begin until a week later when the fertilized egg implants in the uterus -- the definition given by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG).“People say that the medical profession has settled on this,” said Dr. Farr Curlin, the senior author of the study and a professor at the University of Chicago. “ And what our data show rather clearly is that it is not at all settled among the medical profession. ”The definition of pregnancy can have a major impact on law and policy. For example, embryonic stem cells are often derived from surplus embryos that aren’t implanted into a woman after in vitro fertilization. And some contraceptives, such as intrauterine devices, prevent implantation. So if pregnancy is considered to begin at fertilization, “then you see why any technology that prevents implantation would be problematic,” Curlin said."

"text": "\"Earlier screening for cervical cancer may lead to unnecessary treatments for an increasingly rare cancer. STORY HIGHLIGHTSAmerican College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends first Pap tests at 21After age 21, women should have a Pap test every two years, instead of every year Rates of cervical cancer have declined by 50 percent since the 1970s ( Health.com) -- Young women should have their first Pap test no sooner than age 21, regardless of when they become sexually active, say new guidelines from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. Earlier screening for cervical cancer may lead to unnecessary and possibly harmful treatments for an increasingly rare cancer, according to ACOG, the leading U. S. professional organization for obstetricians and gynecologists. After age 21, women should have a Pap test every two years, instead of every year. At age 30, if a woman has no history of cervical cancer and has had three normal Pap tests in a row, she can be screened every three years, rather than every two to three years. ( Women with certain risk factors, such as those who are HIV positive or who have a suppressed immune system, may need to be screened more often. ) However, annual pelvic exams -- which are necessary for performing a Pap test -- won't necessarily be going away. ACOG says it may still be appropriate for women to visit their doctor annually for a pelvic exam, even if a Pap test isn't performed. And sexually active adolescents shouldn't wait until age 21 to see a gynecologist for the first time. ( Such visits don't necessarily have to include a pelvic exam. )"

"text": "(Rebekka Dunlap for The Washington Post)By Sandra G. Boodman October 12, 2015 Email the author I t’s the latest battle over screening: Should healthy women skip annual pelvic exams? A controversial recommendation last year by the American College of Physicians, which represents the nation’s internists, strongly urged that doctors stop routinely performing the invasive exam on women without symptoms and who are not pregnant. Citing 60 years of research, the ACP found no evidence that the screening, performed about 63 million times annually at a cost of approximately $2.6 billion, detects cancer or other serious conditions. The exam, researchers reported, did cause harm: One-third of women reported discomfort, pain, embarrassment or anxiety — leading some to avoid care altogether. For roughly 1 percent of women, a suspicious finding triggered a cascade of anxiety-provoking interventions — including tests and surgery, which carry a risk of complications for conditions that nearly always turned out to be benign. [ Ever wonder how doctors learn how to do pelvic exams? ] The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists fired back. Despite what the group acknowledged was a lack of evidence that “supports or refutes” the exam, ACOG strongly endorsed it, citing the “clinical experience of gynecologists.” Patients expect it, the group said, and the screening builds trust, reassures women and encourages them to discuss sensitive matters such as sexual dysfunction. A decision about whether to undergo the exam should be made by doctors and patients, ACOG concluded."

"text": "ACOG vs EOTech with Magnifier – Which Is Better? ( ANSWERED)Posted by Reloader Addict · Leave a comment Photo by Keith La Faille / CC BYOur ancestors used to pack primitive gunpowder down crude iron tubes, light it with a match, point it in the general direction of their enemy, and hope the mass of smoke, fire, and randomly flying bits of metal might harm the folks downrange. Barring that, it was always good for instilling confusion and fear, provided the weapon didn’t blow up on the user first. Now, instead of trying to decide which end of a gun is more dangerous, we have a much more vexing problem when it comes to firearms. What is better in the battle between ACOG vs Eo Tech with a magnifier? Inquiring minds want to know, so we happily frolicked through the most advanced sights ever fielded on a rifle. Both an ACOG and an EOTech have a few things in common. Both have been used in combat by the US military, and both can provide low power magnification. However, where an EOTech is battery-operated, an ACOG uses radioactive tritium to provide illumination. Both have advantages and disadvantages that we will cover later, but now let’s take a look at a couple of pairs of such sights."

Rumore, Pharm D, JDAuthor information ► Article notes ► Copyright and License information ►This article has been cited by other articles in PMC. Go to: INTRODUCTIONTwelve percent of all births in the U. S. are premature. 1Preterm births have increased by 27% over the last decade in the U. S., accounting for 85% of all perinatal morbidity and mortality. Preterm delivery is defined as birth before 37 weeks of gestation. The steady increase in premature births is a public health concern because it is associated with increased infant mortality as well as long-term social and educational costs. Predisposing risk factors for preterm delivery include a documented history of a previous singleton preterm delivery after less than 37 weeks of gestation, multiple gestations, short cervical length, body weight less than 50 kg (110 pounds), bleeding, and African-American ancestry. 1 The most common risk factor is a history of preterm birth. 1 According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), women with a singleton pregnancy and a documented history of spontaneous birth at less than 37 weeks or premature rupture of the amniotic membrane should be offered progesterone supplementation. 2Go to: CURRENT THERAPYTwo progesterone dosage forms are used to reduce pre-term labor––natural progesterone administered vaginally, and 17-alpha hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17P), a synthetic pro-gestin, administered via the intramuscular (IM) route."

"text": "What Does FACOG Mean? Trust begins with knowing that a doctor is qualified. All ob-gyns have earned their undergraduate college degree and have completed an additional four years of medical school. After receiving their medical degree, ob-gyns complete four years of residency training in obstetrics and gynecology; after this they may elect to become board-certified. Certification recognizes that a doctor has graduated from a recognized medical school, completed an accredited residency program, has an unrestricted license to practice medicine, and has passed extensive exams given by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology. The initials FACOG after a physician's name indicate that he or she has met additional criteria to qualify as a Fellow of The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. By choosing an ACOG Fellow as your physician, you can feel confident that you will receive the highest quality health care. Choosing an ACOG Fellow as your physician ensures that your ob-gyn is being kept abreast of the latest medical guidelines, treatments, and techniques in women's health care today."

In This Article Abstract and Introduction Menstrual Dating Ultrasound Dating A Simple Solution to Dating Discrepancies: The Rule of Eights Conclusion References Ultrasound Dating Over the past 40 years, there has been a myriad of research studies exploring the safety, techniques, and benefits of ultrasound use in pregnancy. [ 20] A comprehensive review of this body of literature is beyond the scope of this article; however, there are several studies that warrant mention with regard to pregnancy dating and gestational age assessment. One of the most important of these was the Routine Antenatal Diagnostic Imaging with Ultrasound Study (RADIUS). [ 24] Published in 1993, this multicenter, randomized controlled trial [ 24] examined the efficacy of routine ultrasound screening in more than 15,000 low-risk pregnant women. Looking specifically at adverse perinatal outcomes, such as fetal death, neonatal death, or neonatal morbidity, the authors [ 24] found no clinical benefit to routine ultrasound screening in pregnancy. They further concluded that the costs associated with routine screening were too prohibitive to justify its use in the absence of clear medical indications. [ 24]While these cost-benefit issues have been examined at length and in some cases refuted by subsequent authors, [ 25, 26] routine ultrasound screening in pregnancy remains controversial and is not currently advocated as the standard of care in the absence of medical indications. [ 27, 28] Regardless, sources suggest that the majority of pregnant women in the United States have at least one ultrasound during pregnancy. ["

"text": "\"Number 439, August 2009 (Reaffirmed 2015)Committee on Ethics PDF Format Informed Consent*ABSTRACT: Obtaining informed consent for medical treatment, for participation in medical research, and for participation in teaching exercises involving students and residents is an ethical requirement that is partially reflected in legal doctrines and requirements. As an ethical doctrine, informed consent is a process of communication whereby a patient is enabled to make an informed and voluntary decision about accepting or declining medical care. In this Committee Opinion, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' Committee on Ethics describes the history, ethical basis, and purpose of informed consent and identifies special ethical questions pertinent to the practice of obstetrics and gynecology. Two major elements in the ethical concept of informed consent, comprehension (or understanding) and free consent, are reviewed. Limits to informed consent are addressed. * Update of \"\"Informed Consent\"\" in Ethics in Obstetrics and Gynecology, Second Edition, 2004. Informed consent is an ethical concept that has become integral to contemporary medical ethics and medical practice. In recognition of the ethical importance of informed consent, the Committee on Ethics of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) affirms the following eight statements: Obtaining informed consent for medical treatment, for participation in medical research, and for participation in teaching exercises involving students and residents is an ethical requirement that is partially reflected in legal doctrines and requirements. Seeking informed consent expresses respect for the patient as a person; it particularly respects a patient's moral right to bodily integrity, to self-determination regarding sexuality and reproductive capacities, and to support of the patient's freedom to make decisions within caring relationships. Informed consent not only ensures the protection of the patient against unwanted medical treatment, but it also makes possible the patient's active involvement in her medical planning and care."

It can occur as a natural part of life, such as during pregnancy or breastfeeding. It can also be a sign of a health problem, such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

In order to get the most out of your henna tattoo, it is best to make your own paste and apply the design correctly, while taking care to preserve the tattoo once you are finished."

The incident was wildly criticized online by many who blamed the child’s parents for the gorilla’s untimely death. Origin On May 28th, 2016, a 4-year-old boy crawled into the enclosure of the Western lowland gorilla Harambe at the Cincinnati Zoo. The gorilla then grasped the child and began dragging him about the enclosure before a Cincinnati Zoo employee fatally shot Harambe with a rifle. That day, You Tuber maxi uploaded footage of the incident to You Tube, where it gathered upwards of 12.6 million views and 41,000 comments in the next 48 hours. The video was subsequently removed, but several mirrored versions quickly resurfaced. Spread On May 29th, a post about the incident reached the front page of /r/news, [6] where it garnered more than 7,100 votes (87% upvoted) and 6,200 comments in the next two days. The same day, a petition titled “Justice for Harambe” was created on Change.org [2] which called for authorities to hold the child’s parents responsible for Harambe’s death."

It is of American - and probably African-American - origin. She'll be Coming Round the Mountain was originally a spiritual. The 'She' of the title referred to a chariot, driven by Jesus on his second coming. As the song became popular in Britain, the \"\"ey, ey, yippee, yippee ey\"\" 'chorus' was added. She'll be Coming Round the Mountain turned into a children's song, and the verse about pink pyjamas was introduced. The lyrics below give a taste of the song as it is commonly sung in the United Kingdom, but variations and alternative verses abound. This is just one of many arrangements.

"text": "Is Cape Honeysuckle (Tecoma capensis) Toxic? Posted by Pat Welsh Wednesday, April 18 th, 2012Question from Sandy: Need to know if cape cod honeysuckle is toxic or not-want to put in exotic bird cages for them to perch and/or eat on (parrots-amazons,macaws,cockatoos)do not see it listed on toxic sheets for birds,tortoises ectc and can not find the answer on internet sources that I have tried. Please help me solve this question. Thanks so much. Answer from Pat: There is no such plant as “Cape Cod honeysuckle.” Perhaps you are referring to a subtropical plant called Cape honeysuckle (Tecoma capensis.) The word “Cape” in this common name refers to the Cape of Good Hope in Africa, where this plant is native, not to Cape Cod where it would freeze and die in winter. Cape honeysuckle has orange or yellow tubelike flowers and is a rangy shrub or climber. Since you had the wrong common name, there is a chance that you are referring to a different plant altogether. Therefore, for your own protection please look up the botanical name “Tecoma capensis” on the Internet."

Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. ( January 2011) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Echo suppression and echo cancellation are methods used in telephony to improve voice quality by preventing echo from being created or removing it after it is already present. In addition to improving subjective audio quality, echo suppression increases the capacity achieved through silence suppression by preventing echo from traveling across a network. Echo suppressors were developed in the 1950s in response to the first use of satellites for telecommunications, but they have since been largely supplanted by better performing echo cancellers. Echo suppression and cancellation methods are commonly called acoustic echo suppression ( AES) and acoustic echo cancellation ( AEC ), and more rarely line echo cancellation ( LEC ). In some cases, these terms are more precise, as there are various types and causes of echo with unique characteristics, including acoustic echo (sounds from a loudspeaker being reflected and recorded by a microphone, which can vary substantially over time) and line echo (electrical impulses caused by, e.g., coupling between the sending and receiving wires, impedance mismatches, electrical reflections, etc., [ 1] which varies much less than acoustic echo). In practice, however, the same techniques are used to treat all types of echo, so an acoustic echo canceller can cancel line echo as well as acoustic echo."

"text": "Coconut oil. Does it REALLY help acne?09-06-2013 Dr. Agnes P. Olszewski 0 Comments Although it may sound counterintuitive, some natural oils may help to fight oily skin and improve breakouts. There is much talk about coconut oil and whether or not it's effective in helping acne prone skin, so here are the facts. Acne and its predecessor, oily skin, are results of over production of sebum (skin oil) by sebaceous glands. The increase in sebum production can lead to clogged pores (whiteheads and blackheads), which accumulate dead skin cells as well as bacteria. This combination leads to a local inflammatory response, which if chronic, can lead to damage to the surrounding tissue. Acne and oily skin have to be treated from the inside out by removing the cause of excessive sebum production, the common denominator for both acne and oily skin. Oily skin can therefore be treated by two distinct pathways:a) decrease sebum productionb) use a cleansing regimen that will safely remove excess oil from the skin. Removing excess skin oil deposits in pores may significantly help to reduce the formation of acne, and also improve the look of the skin. Using Oil on Acne Prone Skin Sebum is a fat soluble substance and is not soluble (diluted) in water without including detergents."

"text": "Acquisition Cost Accounting Print Email Acquisition cost concept applies to the obtainment of the fixed assets, so that an association might use for its commercial and business activities. Acquisition cost concept helps determine the actual expenses of an asset; it does not only include its purchase price but many other costs as well. Alternatively referred to as book value this cost is stated under the fixed assets section of the balance sheet. An assets acquisition cost might comprise many other costs other than the purchase price of an asset, any cost incurred to get an asset such as plant and machinery into a working state are considered a part of the asset’s acquisition cost. Acquisition Cost Principles If we take a further thorough look at the perception of acquisition cost we may ascertain that even costs incurred in obtaining the legal rights or ownership to an asset are included in its acquisition cost. Legal costs, commission and various fees can be some examples. Acquisition costs also include those special carrying costs which occur particularly in case of machineries and plant. Any costs incurred to put that particular asset into an operational state will be included in its acquisition costs as well. In case of complicated equipment even its installation costs; delivery cost, calibration costs, etc. are included in its acquisition costs too."

"title": "http://corporate.findlaw.com/law-library/federal-government-contract-overview.html\nFederal Government Contract Overview",
"text": "\"Federal Government Contract Overview From formation through administration, contracting with the federal government is ..a highly regulated process with many traps for the unsuspecting. Unlike commercial contracting, which is governed generally by the Uniform Commercial Code and the common law, federal government contracting is governed by a maze of statutes and regulations. These statutory and regulatory provisions dictate, for example, what method or process an agency must use to solicit a contract; how the agency is to negotiate or award a contract; and under certain circumstances, what costs the Government will reimburse and how a contractor must account for those costs. In addition, a government contractor must remain aware that it is subject to the policy dictates of the sovereign. The U. S. Government imposes a host of socio-economic obligations through its contracts, including requirements related to affirmative action, drug-free work place, subcontracting, and minimum employee wages. Although Congress has streamlined the contracting process to reduce the burdens on contractors offering commercial products and services, any entity considering entering into a government contract must tread carefully. This overview is intended to provide you a general insight into the federal government's contracting process. Basic Statutory and Regulatory Provisions The Armed Services Procurement Act of 1947 (ASPA), codified at 10 U. S. C. §§ 2301 -2314, the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (FPASA), codified at 40 U. S. C. §§ 471-514 and 41 U. S. C. §§ 251-260, and the Competition in Contracting Act (CICA), codified in scattered sections of 10, 31, 40, and 41 U. S. C., represent the three statutory foundations of government contract law and the federal acquisition process. The ASPA governs the acquisition of all property (except land), construction, and services by defense agencies; the FPASA governs similar civilian agency acquisitions. The CICA, applicable to both defense and civilian acquisitions, requires federal agencies to seek and obtain \"\"full and open competition\"\" wherever possible in the contract award process."

Before you can identify KPIs, you must know your goals as an employee, as a department and as a company. Your goals must align with your company’s core business objectives and you must know how to achieve them (i.e. strategy ). Only then you will be in a position to find KPIs which align with your business KPIs. For example, for an individual like SEO, the goal may be, to increase the organic search traffic of his website. But at the organisation level, his goal is most likely to increase customers acquisition and decrease customers acquisition cost through Search Engine Optimization. Similarly, for a department like ‘Customer Support’, their goal may be to solve all customers enquiries within 12 hours. But at the organization level, their goal is is most likely to improve customers satisfaction and retention. Whether you are an individual or a department, your goals must align with your company’s core business objectives. Everyone in the company must be pushing towards the same organization goals."

Those cases are marked \"\"Policy Note.\"\" While this manual is focused on IPTs, much of this guidance is also useful in developing teams to support non-TEAM, external customers. This manual is intended as a companion to the TEAM Transition Plan Update published in February 1996, where the TEAM's Integrated Program Team/Competency Aligned Organization (IPT/CAO) mission, operational concept, and transition milestones are explained in detail. The use of IPTs to support program activities was one of the major cultural changes undertaken by the TEAM's commitment to IPT/CAO operations, which began in 1993."

"text": "\"Mergers and Acquisitions: Introduction Mergers and Acquisitions: Definition Mergers and Acquisitions: Valuation Matters Mergers and Acquisitions: Doing The Deal Mergers and Acquisitions: Break Ups Mergers and Acquisitions: Why They Can Fail Mergers and Acquisitions: Conclusion The key principle behind M&A is that two companies together are more valuable than two separate companies—at least, that's the reasoning. This rationale is particularly alluring to companies when times are tough. Strong companies will act to buy other companies to create a more competitive, cost-efficient company and, theoretically, more shareholder value. Meanwhile, target companies will often agree to be purchased when they know they cannot survive alone. Distinction between Mergers and Acquisition The terms merger and acquisition mean slightly different things, though they are often used interchangeably. When one company takes over another and clearly establishes itself as the new owner, the purchase is called an acquisition. From a legal point of view, the target company ceases to exist, the buyer absorbs the business and the buyer's stock continues to be traded while the target company’s stock does not. In the pure sense of the term, a merger happens when two firms, often of about the same size, agree to go forward as a single new company rather than remain separately owned and operated. This kind of action is more precisely referred to as a \"\"merger of equals.\"\" Both companies' stocks are surrendered and new company stock is issued in its place."

This SMG applies to each of the following types of contract actions: (1) All contract actions with an estimated value greater than or equal to the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT), (2) All contract actions with an estimated value greater than $25,000 which require a Statement of Work (SOW) or Performance Work Statement (PWS), and (3) Any other contract action requiring an IGCE, as determined by the Contracting Officer. The purpose of the IGCE is to –Satisfy the government’s fiduciary responsibility to understand the cost of a requirement in determining the need to acquire it;Serve as the basis for reserving funds as part of acquisition planning;Serve as a basis for comparing prices proposed by offerors; and Serve as an objective basis for determining price reasonableness when only one quotation is received.2.

"title": "http://macabacus.com/taxes/considerations\nTax Basis",
"text": "\"Tax Basis Tax basis is the carrying cost of an asset on a company's tax balance sheet, and is analogous to book value on a company's accounting balance sheet. In most cases, assets are initially recorded at acquisition cost for both book and tax purposes. However, book value and tax basis may diverge over time due to different depreciation/amortization methodologies (e.g. straight-line depreciation for accounting purposes versus accelerated depreciation for tax purposes). The taxable gain, if any, recognized by the seller (either individual investors or corporate shareholders) upon the sale of stock or assets is equal to the purchase price less the tax basis in the stock or assets sold. If the tax basis exceeds the sale price, the seller recognizes a loss on the transaction rather than a gain. When the transaction results in a gain, the seller's tax burden is determined by a number of factors, including whether or not the transaction is taxable, whether the seller is taxable or tax-exempt, whether the gain is taxed as ordinary income or a capital gain, the seller's holding period (how long the sold stock/assets were held by the seller before sale), and the applicable tax rate. There are two types of tax basis: inside basis and outside basis. The inside basis is the tax basis that a company has in its assets. The outside basis is the tax basis that a shareholder (which could be corporate entity) has in the shares of a company. The basis to be used in calculating taxes depends on how the transaction is structured."

TCO analysis attempts to uncover both the obvious costs and the \"\"hidden\"\" costs of ownership. For certain assets, purchase price and ownership cost can be very different. What is Total Cost of Ownership? Total Cost of Ownership ( TCO) is an analysis meant to uncover all the lifetime costs that follow from owning certain kinds of assets. As a result, TCO is sometimes called life cycle cost analysis. Asset ownership brings purchase costs, of course, but ownership also brings costs due to installing, deploying, using, upgrading, and maintaining the same assets. These after-purchase costs can be substantial. Consequently, for many kinds of assets, TCO analysis finds a very large difference between purchase price and total life cycle costs. And, the difference can be especially large when ownership covers a long time period."

"text": "Video Surveillance Industry reacts to Canon's acquisition of Axisby Joel Griffin On Feb 13, 2015Experts from across the security spectrum recently shared their initial reactions and thoughts about the impact of Canon's acquisition of Axis Communications on the market with SIW. Photo credit: (Photo courtesy Axis Communications)| Share| Share| Share| Share Less than eight months after taking the security industry by surprise with its acquisition of Milestone Systems, one of the world’s leading providers of video management software, Canon dropped another bombshell on the market this week when it announced plans to acquire Axis Communications for just over $2.8 billion. With these two acquisitions, Canon has catapulted itself to the top of the video surveillance industry. However, there remain a lot of unknowns about what the combined forces of these companies will ultimately mean for the market. At first glance, it would appear that Canon has formed a video surveillance juggernaut – bringing some of the best hardware and software products the industry has to offer together under one roof. In fact, according to IHS, the newly combined Canon company would be the largest video surveillance company (by market share) in the Americas and the third-largest from a global perspective, behind Hikvision and Dahua. However, the success that both Milestone and Axis have enjoyed throughout the industry has been due in large part to the technical partnerships they’ve developed and fostered with companies over the years, many of which may now be put to the test. Additionally, how will this deal impact future acquisitions in the industry? Will the pace of consolidation increase more rapidly now as other conglomerates with cash to spend see their opportunity to increase their market share through buying other leaders in the market? SIW recently reached out to a variety of subject matter experts across the industry to get their initial reactions to the deal and how it bodes for the overall market moving forward: Bill Bozeman, CPP, president and CEO of PSA Security Network: It is certainly not just Canon, the physical security industry, in general, is experiencing a trend where large, cash rich international companies are buying their way into what they perceive to be a fast growing industry."

"text": "\"RFP Preparation and Source Selection Print Definition: Request for proposal (RFP) preparation and source selection are the actions necessary to prepare for a government solicitation and to select one or more contractors for delivery of a product or service. Keywords: acquisitions, competitive procurement, non-competitive procurement, proposal, RFP, RFP development, source selection, strategy MITRE SE Roles and Expectations: MITRE systems engineers (SEs) are expected to create technical and engineering portions of RFP documentation (requirements documents, statement of work, evaluation criteria) and to assist in the technical evaluation of bidders during source selection. Background A program's acquisition strategy addresses the objectives for the acquisition, affordability, constraints, availability of resources and technologies, acquisition methods, types of contracts, terms and conditions of the contracts, management considerations, risk, and the logistics considerations for the resulting products or services. The acquisition strategy identifies the context for developing the RFP and determines the source selection method as either a \"\"competitive\"\" or \"\"non-competitive\"\" procurement. The requirements contained in the RFP and the contractor (s) proposal that is selected can often determine the success or failure of a system for the duration of a program. Using a credible process to develop the RFP and conduct a source selection can significantly improve the likelihood of success. Doing it right the first time is critical—rarely does a program have a chance to do it again. Competitive Procurement In a competitive procurement, two or more contractors, acting independently, are solicited to respond to the government RFP. Their proposals are evaluated during source selection, and the contract is awarded to the contractor (s) who offers the most favorable terms to the government. Competitive procurement activities include the preparation steps that lead to the development of the acquisition strategy, which, as noted earlier, provides the basis for developing the RFP and conducting the source selection."

"text": "Calculating And Using Cost Per Hire The Right Way Emily Smykal October 6, 2015In most cases, talent acquisition leaders must justify their methods and expenses during the recruitment process. As a result, the cost per hire metric has become an essential data point. Cost per hire, when calculated correctly, pulls together all of the costs associated with filling an open position, and determines the average amount spent to hire a new employee for that role. The cost per hire metric places an economic value on the resources required to attract and hire new employees. And while cost per hire does not paint a full picture of an organization’s recruiting abilities, the cost of talent acquisition should not be ignored. High cost per hire will certainly attract attention from senior leaders. Low cost per hire may impress your organization’s CFO and free up resources for other purposes. But it’s important to determine the level of investment that provides the best outcomes for an individual organization. Recent research from Bersin by Deloitte found that businesses with the most mature talent acquisition strategies actually have higher cost per hire–averaging $6,465. This is compared to an average of $3,258 among the least mature, and most reactive, talent acquisition strategies."

"text": "\"Competitive Processes in Government Contracting: The FAR Part 15 Process Model and Process Inefficiency By Vernon J. Edwards April 2003Boiled down to its essence, choosing a contractor in a competitive acquisition is a matter of information processing. The decisionmaker collects information about alternative choices (competing firms), assesses each alternative on the basis of specified criteria (evaluation factors), and then compares each alternative to the others on the basis of those assessments in order to rank them and determine which is best. The process is essentially the same no matter what method of contracting is used: ordering against a GSA multiple award schedule, simplified acquisition, sealed bidding, negotiation, or \"\"fair opportunity\"\" under a multiple award delivery or task order contract. When planning a competitive acquisition, agency acquisition personnel must design a process for getting information about the alternatives, assessing each alternative, and comparing the alternatives in order to determine which is best. In developing their process they must take into account their objectives for process quality, schedule and costs. They must consider the attributes of a good decision, the time available to make it, and the human and technological resources (e.g., computers and decision support software) at their disposal. Presumably, they want to minimize their transaction costs by making the best decision they can in the shortest reasonable time and using no more of their agency's resources than absolutely necessary. They also should want to economize on the demands made on the competing firms, so as to not make government business unattractive to the best firms by making it too costly and time-consuming. A review of protest decisions by the U. S. General Accounting Office (GAO) and the literature on government contracting suggests that some agencies fail to design efficient competitive processes because they follow a poor process model. That model has evolved over the course of 50 years in connection with source selections conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 15, Contracting by Negotiation, and its predecessors."

Freebase (0.00 / 0 votes)Rate this definition: Acro dance Acro dance is a style of dance that combines classical dance technique with precision acrobatic elements. It is defined by its athletic character, its unique choreography, which seamlessly blends dance and acrobatics, and its use of acrobatics in a dance context. It is a popular dance style in amateur competitive dance as well as in professional dance theater and in contemporary circus productions such as those by Cirque du Soleil. This is in contrast to acrobatic, artistic and rhythmic gymnastics, which are sports that employ dance elements in a gymnastics context under the auspices of a governing gymnastics organization and subject to a Code of Points. Acro dance is known by various other names including acrobatic dance and gymnastic dance, though it is most commonly referred to simply as acro by dancers and dance professionals. Acro is an especially challenging dance style for dancers as it requires them to be trained in both dance and acrobatic skills. Acro dancers must be in excellent physical condition as well, because acro is a physically demanding activity.

"text": "\"Administrative Installation Points Administrative installations via administrative install points (AIPs) create an uncompressed source so the application can be installed from a network location. AIPs allow you to create a canonical set of pre-configured files in one location that can be distributed across your organization from one location. Updates and patches also often leverage administrative installations because they require uncompressed images of the installed product versions in order to compute file differences. These points also act as an archive of what you installed. Note that when an MSI is released for Reader, it is usually not accompanied by an MSP, so you should start over with a new AIP. Best practices The following recommendations will help you successfully deploy updates and patches: Do not create the AIP directly on the root drive (e.g. C:). Use TARGETDIR on the command line or the AIP user interface to specify a different install location. If you previously deployed using an AIP, then you must apply the successive patches using an AIP. Know when you can reuse AIPs and when you have to create a new one. For example, Acrobat 10.x and later quarterlies are cumulative and cannot be installed on top of each other."

It is usually a complete rotation of the body, although quarter (90°) and half (180°) turns are possible for some types of turns. Multiple, consecutive turns are typically named according to the number of 360° rotations (e.g., double or triple turn). There are many types of turns, which are differentiated by a number of factors. The performer may be supported by one or both legs or be airborne during a turn.

First introduced by Adobe two decades ago, PDF has since become a ubiquitous way to let users view docs that look the same regardless of which OS and application software are installed on the device. Adobe’s Acrobat software lets you not just read but create and edit PDF documents, as well as convert documents to and from PDF and other file formats. Adobe is hardly alone, however, in the business of PDF software. Although the current version of Acrobat Reader is free, you need to pay if you want to use Acrobat’s other features. In this review, we’ll explore whether Acrobat is worth the money. Overview In 1991, Adobe outlined the specifications of a new document format named Portable Document Format, or PDF. PDF has its roots in Postscript, a page description language used in printing documents. Until 2008, PDF was a proprietary format, controlled by Adobe."

Please note that you can't edit a PDF file with the free Adobe Reader - you need the full version of Adobe Acrobat to make changes. If you're using Adobe Acrobat 9 or earlier, the changes you'll be able to make will be extremely limited. The 'Advanced Editing' text tools are unwieldy to say the least. However, if you just want to make minor tweaks, see Simple PDF Editing with Acrobat below to find out how. Advanced PDF Editing with Acrobat X Pro (or Standard)If you want to make more advanced changes to the content and layout of a PDF file, including text editing, image cropping and repositioning, there are two main ways to do it: One method to better edit PDF documents is to use Adobe Acrobat X Pro (Pro or Standard) which is a significant improvement over its predecessors when it comes to advanced editing tools. No longer consigned to an obscure sub-menu, the improved advanced editing tools make a much better job of text editing and repositioning (the text actually wraps now! ), and you can even crop individual images on a page, and even change color modes for individual items. Another method of advanced editing (if you don't possess Adobe Acrobat X) is by using a combination of (older) Acrobat, Illustrator and Photoshop."

"text": "Adobe Acrobat X (Acrobat 10) is Here – Standard, Pro, and New Suite!10 comments Yes – Adobe Acrobat X has just been announced with all the details… Pretty much on the timeframe we forecast, you can learn about and order any of the three new versions, or download the free trials. For this 10th generation of the PDF industry standard, Adobe is offering two versions – Standard and Pro – plus a brand new Acrobat X Suite Edition that features Acrobat X together with Photoshop, Captivate, and three other Adobe products. As was announced last spring, the previous “Pro Extended” version which focused largely on 3D had its technologies transferred to two other companies for future development – but some of the other things that Extended did are picked up by the new Suite. The very first version of Acrobat came out in 1993 and there have been 40 million total Acrobat units sold since then, Adobe’s biggest product ever… Over 90% of Internet-connected computers have the Adobe Reader installed, and there are over 160 million PDF files on the Web. So what’s new in Acrobat version 10? There are plenty of new features, but Adobe really worked hard on this release to make it sleek and polished, giving it a new streamlined interface and making it faster and easier to use than previous versions. We’ve seen the demos and it shows – it really does some cool and amazing things. Overall we present some quick highlights here, but see our companion “what’s new” article for more: New PDF Portfolio Wizard, with all-new layouts, visual themes, and color palettes. New Action Wizard to automate tasks (“macros”) across one or many PDF documents. Much improved scanning results (OCR) and exporting to Word, Excel, and Power Point."

Signatures are an essential part of business, and one that’s now made much easier with the new Document Cloud service you can get on subscription with Acrobat. No other competing PDF utility has anything like it. We tried Document Cloud and all the other new features, including a new interface and new mobile apps, in our review. Before we get too deep into that, however, let’s go over all the new flavors of Acrobat. Image: Adobe Adobe's new Document cloud service will offer electronic signature management, a standout feature compared to other PDF applications. Acrobat DC and Acrobat Pro DC are available as perpetual versions ($299 and $449, respectively) or subscription versions ($13 and up, depending upon version and length of subscription). The perpetual versions do not allow you to send out PDFs for electronic signatures. The non-Pro version lacks things like PDF file optimization, redaction, Preflighting (checking document elements prior to press printing), Bates numbering (adding numbers or date and time marks to a document), and document version comparisons. The mobile apps are free."

At the heart of Document Cloud is Acrobat DC – the industry standard for creating, sharing and editing PDFs – which was completely reengineered last year for the initial DC 2015 milestone release. This new version of Acrobat continues as a desktop product in both Pro or Standard editions, and is available either via subscription or with a perpetual (one-off) license. Adobe has incorporated many new features and improvements to bring Acrobat up the modern day. Further, the company has moved to a year-based versioning model for Acrobat… So this revision is officially called the “the 2016 Release of Acrobat DC” – and the technical version number is actually 15 rather than 12. And in maintaining our tradition of providing the direct download links for major Adobe products such as Creative Cloud, CS6, Lightroom 6/CC, Captivate 10, and Elements 2018, you’ll find the direct links for the new Acrobat DC 2016 below.

The program lacks the most innovative PDF features of Acrobat X, and it comes nowhere near matching Acrobat's polish. It's even rougher around the edges than Nuance's similarly priced PDF Converter Enterprise 7. But Phantom PDF 5.0 Business is a lean, fast application that will work efficiently on older, slower computers in your office; and like Nuance, Fox Itcan lets you opt for other versions of Phantom PDF that omit a few more features but cost even less. Cheap Speed [ Further reading: Your new PC needs these 15 free, excellent programs ]Foxit claims that Phantom PDF 5.0 Business is \"\"up to three times faster than competitor tools.\"\" It certainly seemed very sprightly: The program opened quickly, actions happened in a snap, and I never got the impression that the app's operations was taxing my computer in the least.

"title": "http://www.wisegeek.org/what-is-acrylic.htm\nWhat is Acrylic?",
"text": "\"The term \"\"acrylic\"\" is used for products that contain a substance derived from acrylic acid or a related compound. Most often, it is used to describe a clear, glass-like plastic known as poly (methyl) methacrylate (PMMA). PMMA, also called acrylic glass, has properties that make it a better choice for many products that might otherwise be made of glass. There are two basic types: extruded and cast. Types Extruded acrylic is made through a process in which the liquid plastic is pushed through rollers, which press it into sheets as it cools. This is a comparatively inexpensive process, but the resulting sheets are softer than cast acrylic, can scratch easier, and may contain impurities. Extruded acrylic is still generally considered to be good quality, and is usually the more common type made available on the market. Cell cast acrylic tends of be of higher quality than extruded, but it's also more expensive. In cell casting, single sheets are made by pressing the liquid plastic between pieces of a mold, often made of glass, which is then taken through a gradual heating process. The resulting sheet is stronger than extruded acrylic."

"text": "ALL ABOUT ACRYLICQ: What is acrylic made of? Acrylic is a transparent thermoplastic known as polyacrylate and is derived from natural-gas. It is a composition of Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) and Poly Methyl Methacrylate (PMMA) resin. In short, it’s a petroleum-based product, so petroleum solvents and chemicals should always be avoided to prevent marking the surface. Q: What is the difference between acrylic, Plexiglas, Lucite, Perspex, and Lexan or clear plastic? A: Acrylic (polyacrylate) is marketed under many trade names including Plexiglas, Lucite, Perspex, Policril, Gavrieli, Vitroflex, Limacryl, R-Cast, Per-Clax, Plazcryl, Acrylex, Acrylite, Acrylplast, Altuglas, Polycast, Oroglass, Optix. These differ from Lexan which is polycarbonate, and is sometimes used as bullet-proof glass. Although it is more shatter-resistant, it is more expensive than acrylic, yellows with prolonged exposure to sunlight, and is much more easily scratched. Therefore acrylic is more ideal for most interior and exterior design purposes. Clear plastic can refer to a wide range of synthetic compounds, with varying strengths, melting points, and other properties."

"text": "\"Acrylic Plastic Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Background Acrylic plastic refers to a family of synthetic, or man-made, plastic materials containing one or more derivatives of acrylic acid. The most common acrylic plastic is polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), which is sold under the brand names of Plexiglas, Lucite, Perspex, and Crystallite. PMMA is a tough, highly transparent material with excellent resistance to ultraviolet radiation and weathering. It can be colored, molded, cut, drilled, and formed. These properties make it ideal for many applications including airplane windshields, skylights, automobile taillights, and outdoor signs. One notable application is the ceiling of the Houston Astrodome which is composed of hundreds of double-insulating panels of PMMA acrylic plastic. Like all plastics, acrylic plastics are polymers. The word polymer comes from the Greek words poly, meaning many, and meros, meaning a part. A polymer, therefore, is a material made up of many molecules, or parts, linked together like a chain. Polymers may have hundreds, or even thousands, of molecules linked together."

While acrylic is slightly more durable than Vikrell, which is more similar to fiberglass, acrylic plastics react with certain chemicals in personal cleaning products while Vikrell does not. Many shampoos, soaps and body washes contain acidic or basic chemicals that can react with acrylic showers, eventually making the shower faded and discolored. The large amount of glass fibers used in manufacturing Vikrell makes the material much more chemically inert than acrylic plastics, meaning Vikrell showers retain their colors longer than those made from acrylics."

"text": "\"What is Acrylic? Acrylic is a useful, clear plastic that resembles glass, but has properties that make it superior to glass in many ways. Common brands of high-grade acrylic include Polycast, Lucite and Plexiglass. There are two basic types of acrylic: extruded and cell cast. Extruded or \"\"continuous cast\"\" acrylic is made by a less expensive process, is softer, can scratch easier and may contain impurities. Cell cast acrylic is a higher quality acrylic and U. S. domestic cell cast is a good choice for applications that require the best. Imported cell cast acrylic is often manufactured to lesser standards. Acrylic is used to make various products, such as shower doors, bath enclosures, windows and skylights. It is chosen over glass for many reasons. It is many times stronger than glass, making it much more impact resistant and therefore safer."

We at Land of Odds get many questions about what glue to use with rhinestones and other beading and jewelry-making projects. We're craftspersons and silversmiths , and we have a shop where we sell rhinestones, beads, jewelry findings, cabochons and the like. Nothing is perfect, but based on our experiences, here are some good tips: (1) Always experiment with your adhesives first, before you use an adhesive on your final project. No one glue works with every project. ( 2) Glues vary widely in terms of which materials they stick to, how well they form a bond between two smooth surfaces, and how the glue bond ages, both in terms of durability and color. ( 3) Clean the excess glue off your piece before you display or sell it. ( 4) You will probably have to rely on more than one type of glue to accommodate all your types of projects. About E6000E-6000 is the jeweler's glue of choice, and our favorite. It is a one-part epoxy, (meaning you don't have to mix anything to make the glue -- it just comes out of a tube)."

"text": "Acrylic sheeting is a comparable substitute to mineral glass. Acrylic is a tough plastic while mineral glass is ordinary glass, made from silica. Each has unique features that give distinct advantages over the other in various applications. People are finding that acrylic stands up to many of the same abuses that glass does and may even surpass mineral glass in versatility and durability. Density Acrylic is less dense than standard glass, meaning it is cheaper to produce, it weighs less, it is easier to move around, and it costs less to transport. Acrylic is only half as dense as glass and has a greater ability to bend. Its flexibility allows acrylic to distort its shape without harm, making it resistant to impact: A sudden blunt pressure does not break acrylic, whereas it would shatter glass in an instant. Cutting acrylic is easier than cutting glass, too; you can either score it or break it, the same techniques used for cutting glass, or by using a suitable hacksaw or power saw. Also, a soldering iron can melt through acrylic quite efficiently. Strength Acrylic is 17 times stronger than glass, requiring greater force to break it."

"text": "Our hands do a lot for us; they allow us to touch, to feel, to grasp, to hold, to manipulate, and ultimately they help us to express ourselves. Even as we talk our hands assist us in conveying our message more clearly from the way we move them as we speak. Whether on a conscious or subconscious level, hands are one of the first things we notice when we meet someone. From the ancient ritual of handshaking which we continue today (a gesture of peace to demonstrate the hand holds no weapon), through to greeting someone with a wave – our hands and the way we use and move them offer a window into who we are as people. With this in mind, it is easy to understand why our nails too have always formed such an important part of the grooming ritual. From the ancient times when long nails signified status, through to today where a good manicure is an indication that you take pride in your appearance. This fact-sheet contains information about nail extensions and nail overlays – both treatments that are carried out by professional nail technicians to add length and enhance the visual appearance of your nails: Nail extensions – A lightweight plastic plate that follows the shape of the nail is glued to the tip of the natural nail in order to add length. Acrylic, gel, fibreglass or another mixture is then applied on top of the extension and is usually ‘cured’ in order to secure the extension and add strength and shine. Nail overlays – Overlays skip the extension step, and instead of adding artificial length onto the nail, the strengthening mixture is simply applied directly onto the natural nail in order to add strength and durability. A brief history of nail extensions Whilst nail extensions may seem like a fairly modern development, women have been attempting to add artificial length to their talons since the Ancient Egyptian times."

Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. ( September 2017) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Total internal reflection of a laser beam in a block of acrylic Total internal reflection is the phenomenon which occurs when a propagated wave strikes a medium boundary at an angle larger than a particular critical angle with respect to the normal to the surface. If the refractive index is lower on the other side of the boundary and the incident angle is greater than the critical angle, the wave cannot pass through and is entirely reflected. The critical angle is the angle of incidence above which the total internal reflection occurs. This is particularly common as an optical phenomenon, where light waves are involved, but it occurs with many types of waves, such as electromagnetic waves in general or sound waves. When a wave reaches a boundary between different materials with different refractive indices, the wave will in general be partially refracted at the boundary surface, and partially reflected. However, if the angle of incidence is greater (i.e. the direction of propagation is closer to being parallel to the boundary) than the critical angle – the angle of incidence at which light is refracted such that it travels along the boundary – then the wave will not cross the boundary, but will instead be totally reflected back internally. This can only occur when the wave in a medium with a higher refractive index ( n 1) reaches a boundary with a medium of lower refractive index ( n 2 )."

When most people think of acrylic, the first thing that comes to mind is durability. Compared to glass, acrylic is virtually unbreakable. When a framed piece is likely to be moved around a lot, acrylic seems the obvious choice, and when the item is to be shipped, it seems a necessity. It may come as a surprise to learn that if UPS or Fed Ex break the glass in a framed piece and ruin the artwork, they may not reimburse the market value of the artwork. Instead, they may offer to reimburse only the value of the items used to create the work; ie, the paint, the paper and the glass, a significant loss of potential value. Acrylic will help to avoid this disaster. Yet, having said that, in one respect acrylic is more fragile than glass; it is easily scratched. Even just rubbing a crumpled up paper towel across the surface of acrylic can cause light surface abrasions."

The primary purpose of a frame on a work on paper is to provide structure for the protection and presentation of the piece as well as to enhance its appearance. Learn what else you need to know about framing in this article from The Artist’s Magazine, by Rosemary Barrett Seidner. The Fine Art of Framingby Rosemary Barrett Seidner Like the setting for a diamond, the frame around a work of art is the finishing touch, the element that completes and elevates a painting, presenting it to the viewer in its best possible light.

For contemporary gallery-wrapped paintings, framing is completely optional. The term gallery wrap refers to canvas wrapped around thick stretcher bars and secured to the back rather than the sides of those bars. This mounting leaves the sides of the canvas smooth, neat and free of visible staples or tacks. Artists using this type of canvas mount often continue the painting around the sides or simply paint the sides a complementary neutral (See No-Frame Options A, below)."

It is a printing method using a sheet of linoleum, in which a subtractive cutting method is used to take away the parts of linoleum where you want to leave the white of the page, and keep the parts you want to be inked! In the result you have a linocut that can reproduce the same image over and over again. A Short History : While linoleum was first invented in the 1860s, it wasn't used as a medium for printing until the early 1900s in Germany, where it was first used for making patterns on wallpaper! Artists ranging from Pablo Picasso to Henri Matisse have made linocuts, and today it is considered a respected art form. Linocuts are also very popular in teaching children in schools about the rewarding art of printmaking. Why linocuts? : First off, linoleum does not have a grain like wood does, meaning there is no need to cut in one direction."

It can truly ruin the bristles of your brushes, and there is not much to do to rescue them after that happens. I prefer to use synthetic brushes, because acrylics adhere more strongly to natural bristles, making them much harder to clean. Since acrylic paint dries fast, it can be challenging to preserve your brushes, especially while working on a painting using different kinds of brushes at the same time.

It is a selective cream that attacks only pre-cancers and early basal cell cancers. Efudex acts like a private detective in that you treat an entire area and it selectively finds the damaged areas and treats them.

As you get older, you may begin to notice rough, scaly spots appearing on your hands, arms, or face. These spots are called actinic keratoses, but they’re commonly known as sunspots or age spots. Actinic keratoses usually develop in areas that’ve been damaged by years of sun exposure. They form when you have actinic keratosis (AK), which is a very common skin condition. AK occurs when skin cells called keratinocytes start to grow abnormally, forming scaly, discolored spots. The skin patches can be any of these colors:browntangraypink They tend to appear on the parts of the body that get the most sun exposure, including the following:handsarmsfacescalpneck Actinic keratoses aren’t cancerous themselves. However, they can progress to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), though the likelihood is low. When they’re left untreated, up to 10 percent of actinic keratoses can progress to SCC. SCC is the second most common type of skin cancer."

Learning objectives Describe terms used in dermatopathology of tumours Describe pathological features of selected skin tumours Introduction The identification of many skin tumours is fairly straightforward, but the diagnosis of some tumours (particularly some melanocytic tumours) can be very difficult. Tumours do not always have textbook appearances. On occasions even experts disagree as to whether a melanocytic lesion is benign or malignant. Sometimes malignant lesions show no obvious histological features to suggest their cell type i.e. they become anaplastic. Special stains especially immunoperoxidase stains can be useful in such cases. The pathology of the following skin tumours will be outlined: Seborrhoeic keratosis Basal cell carcinoma Actinic keratosis In situ squamous cell carcinoma Squamous cell carcinoma Epidermoid cyst Lentigo Melanocytic naevus Malignant melanoma Mycosis fungoides Dermatofibroma Atypical fibroxanthoma Terminology Descriptions refer to routine sections stained with haematoxylin and eosin (H&E). Basaloid tumour cells The cells resemble cells from the basal epidermal layer i.e. have a dark oval nucleus and little cytoplasm Epithelioid cells Cells resemble epithelial cells in having ample pale cytoplasm and pale vesicular nuclei. They may be tumour cells or macrophages Foam cells Cells with bubbly cytoplasm (usually macrophages)Spindle cells Long thin cells of many cell types Squamous eddies, horn pearls and horncyst Concentric whorled arrangement of keratinocytes, more keratinised in the middle (marked keratinisation is called a horn pearl or horn cyst)Epidermotropism The migration of malignant cells into the epidermis (usually refers to lymphocytes)Pagetoid spread Individual cell spread of malignant cells in the epidermis in a ‘buckshot’ pattern Pautrier Microabscesses Clusters of atypical lymphocytes in the epidermis with little associated spongiosis. Epithelial tumours Seborrhoeickeratosis Among other names, the seborrhoeic keratosis is sometimes reported as basal cell papilloma, i.e. a benign neoplasm of basal cells."

"text": "Print Diagnosis Your doctor will likely be able to determine whether you have an actinic keratosis simply by examining your skin. If there's any doubt, he or she may do other tests, such as a skin biopsy. During a skin biopsy, your doctor takes a small sample of your skin for analysis in a lab. A biopsy can usually be done in a doctor's office after a numbing injection. Even after treatment for actinic keratosis, your doctor will likely suggest that you have your skin checked at least once a year for signs of skin cancer. Treatment An actinic keratosis sometimes disappears on its own, but it typically returns after more sun exposure. Because it's impossible to tell which patches or lesions will develop into skin cancer, actinic keratoses are usually removed as a precaution. Medications If you have several actinic keratoses, you may be better served by treating the entire affected area. Prescription products that can be applied to your skin for this purpose include: Fluorouracil cream (Carac, Fluoroplex, Efudex)Imiquimod cream (Aldara, Zyclara)Ingenol mebutate gel (Picato)Diclofenac gel (Voltaren, Solaraze)These creams may cause redness, scaling or a burning sensation for a few weeks. Photodynamic therapy In photodynamic therapy, your doctor applies a chemical solution to the affected skin that makes it sensitive to light."

Caused by years of sun exposure, AKs also are called “solar keratoses” or “sun spots,” Fair-skinned people are more susceptible, and AKs tend to appear on skin that receives the most sun. The forehead, ears, neck, arms, hands, lower lip, a bald scalp, and lower legs of women are common sites. No matter where AKs develop, they are considered the earliest stage in the development of skin cancer. Like skin cancer, AKs develop when ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun damages cells in the skin. When AKs form, the affected skin cells are the keratinocytes. These tough-walled cells make up 90 percent of the epidermis (the outermost layer of skin) and give the skin its texture. Changes to these cells cause the skin to become rough and scaly. Bumps or small horn-like growths form. If the cells continue to change, AKs can progress to squamous cell carcinoma, a type of skin cancer."

Related Topics: Actinic Keratosis Follow Question Answers From Experts & Organizations (1)Medicine Net5,093 Answers 311,554 Helpful Votes 212 Followers A. An actinic keratosis, also known as a solar keratosis, is a small, rough spot occurring on skin that has been chronically exposed to the sun. Actinic keratoses generally measure in size between two to six millimeters in diameter (between the size of a pencil point and that of an eraser). They are usually reddish in color, with a rough texture and often have a white or yellowish scale on top. Actinic keratosis often occurs against a background of sun damage, including sallowness, wrinkles, and superficial blood vessels. In addition to feeling rough, actinic keratoses may feel sore or painful when fingers or clothing rub against them. Specialized forms of actinic keratoses include cutaneous horns, in which the skin protrudes in a thick, hornlike manner, and actinic cheilitis, which refers to scaling and roughness of the lower lip and blurring of the border of the lip and adjacent skin.

Skin Cancer is very common and affects millions of American children and adults each year. Prevention and detection are the keys against skin cancer. There are three common types of skin cancer: Squamous cell carcinoma, Basal Cell carcinoma, and Melanoma. Lesions called Actinic Keratosis are sometimes referred to as “precancers”, but these are actually the earliest stages of squamous cell carcinoma. Actinic Keratosis And Squamous Cell Carcinoma What Is It? Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common skin cancer. It arises from the epidermis and resembles the squamous cells that comprise most of the upper layers of skin. Squamous cell skin cancers may occur on all areas of the skin including the mucous membranes of the lips and genitals, but are most common in areas exposed to the sun. An Actinic Keratosis (AK), also known as a solar keratosis, is a squamous cell carcinoma “in-situ.” “"

"text": "Actinic Keratosis - What Causes It Actinic Keratosis is seen especially in those who work outdoors, sailors, golfers, skiers and in those who have significant other recreational sun exposure. The following are the two main causes of Actinic Keratosis:1. Exposure To Carcinogenic Factors A) Ultraviolet light - Most of this is from sunlight. Actinic keratoses are most commonly seen in fair skinned individuals who are unable to tan and is associated with an accumulated lifetime exposure to sun. B) Ionizing radiation such as radiotherapy may also increase of skin cancers. C) Chemicals such as arsenic increase the risk of skin cancers. Exposure is usually chronic and at low concentrations.2. Genetic Syndromes There are a number of rare genetic syndromes that increase the risk of skin cancers. For example, xeroderma pigmentosa results from a defect in DNA repair. This condition is associated with sun sensitivity, extensive freckling and the risk of all forms of skin cancers is up to 2,000 times that of the normal population."

Share Email Feedback Sections Overview Etiology Clinical Features Gross and Microscopic Features Immunohistochemistry Molecular and Genetic Alterations Prognosis Show All Media Gallery References Overview Actinic keratosis is an erythematous scaly papule or plaque that develops on sun-damaged skin as a result of chronic exposure to ultraviolet radiation, typically in elderly patients with lighter skin types. This condition is related to squamous cell carcinoma of the skin and is often described as a precursor or early form of squamous cell carcinoma in situ, although most actinic keratoses will not progress to invasive squamous cell carcinoma. The primary histologic feature is atypia or dysplasia of the keratinocytes in the basal layers of the epidermis (see an example in the image below). This is often accompanied by parakeratosis, thinning of the granular layer, buds of atypical epidermis extending toward the papillary dermis, dermal solar elastosis, and inflammation. The epidermis show mild hyperkeratosis with dysplasia of the basal keratinocytes and formation of small buds extending into the papillary dermis. There is prominent solar elastosis in the superficial dermis. The dysplastic changes primarily affect the epidermis between follicles. ( Hematoxylin & eosin, 5× magnification. ) View Media Gallery Actinic keratoses are extremely common, and the populations most at risk are older individuals with chronic sun-exposure and light skin.

Simply put, if your cell phone is unlocked it can be used with more than one wireless carrier like T Mobile and Cingular. For a more detailed explanation read on. If you find this guide helpful, please help others find it by clicking the \"\"Yes\"\" in the blue title bar below. I will start with what is means to be locked. Many years ago, the wireless carriers such as AT&T and others started a marketing strategy of paying for some of or all of the cost of a new cell phone if the customer would commit to a one or two year contract to use their wireless service. The wireless carriers did not want to pay for the phone and later have it used with another carrier, so they got the cell phone manufactures to design the phone to be locked to just their service. For example, if AT&T paid for the phone, AT&T would lock it so that it could only be used on AT&T and not T Mobile. This lock is called by several names including \"\"Sub Lock\"\" or \"\"SPC Lock\"\" or \"\"Sim Lock\"\". Now that you know why the cell phones are locked, I will discuss how to tell if your phone is locked or unlocked."

However, information on heating, cooling, fire suppression systems, and power backup is available simply by discussing your needs with your facilities management staff. It is not so easy when it comes to intrusion controls. It takes more than a lock or two to secure sensitive information and critical systems. This is the realm of the security professional’s expertise. In this chapter, we look at the objectives of physical security and various controls to meet those objectives. When you finish, you will have the skills necessary to have an informed discussion with facilities and business management about what is right and what is missing in your organization’s physical security plan."

"text": "\"The Actus Reus of a Criminal Attempt Extracts from this document... Introduction The Actus Reus of a Criminal Attempt An attempt is an inchoate offence, which is concerned with the preparatory stages of other criminal offences. Liability for criminal attempts is generally covered by s 1 (1) of the Criminal Attempts Act 19811, which provides: \"\"If with intent to commit an offence to which the section applies, a person does an act which is more than merely preparatory to the commission of the offence, he is guilty of attempting to commit the offence.\"\" Under this provision, a person can be convicted of attempting to commit any offence, which is either indictable or triable either way, but one cannot be convicted for attempting a summary offence.2 In this situation, Parliament may decide that this gap must be filled by a specific statutory attempt.3 The actus reus of a criminal attempt is defined by s 1 (1) of the CAA 1981, which requires the accused to have committed an act which is 'more than merely preparatory' to the offence committed.4 Where trial is on indictment, the judge should determine whether there is evidence on which a jury could properly find that the accused's actions did go beyond mere preparation, but it is then for the jury to decide that question as one of fact.5 How far does D have to go in order to be guilty of an attempt? The answer given by the common law was that, it was a matter of fact: was the act sufficiently proximate to (e.g. murder) to be properly described as an attempt to commit it?6 Before the passing of the CAA, the courts evolved several tests designed to help a jury to decide whether a stage of a criminal attempt had been reached. One of such tests was the so-called 'last act' test derived from Eagleton7, i.e. has the defendant with the intent to commit the full offence, done the last act in his power towards committing that offence, or as Lord Diplock put it in Stonehouse, has he \"\"crossed the Rubicon and burnt his boats.\"\" ... read more. Middlefollow the 'preparation phase' of the intended crime from those which fall within the 'commission phase', it is clear that courts have difficulty in identifying where the line between the two is drawn. In Tosti30, Beldam LJ stated that, 'there may be actions which are preparatory, which are not merely so and which are essentially first steps in the commission of the offence'. In this case, CA upheld the D's conviction for attempted burglary on the basis that he had done an act showing that he had tried to commit the offence, rather than merely putting himself in a position to do so. However, if the quashing of the conviction in Campbell of attempted robbery was right, it is difficult to see how the instant decision can be correct.31 In Qadir and Khan32, Potter LJ emphasised that a judge when ruling whether something was capable of constituting a more than merely preparatory act, should keep in mind the nature of the crime attempted, distinguishing between offences where the focus is upon an act and those where it is upon a transaction."

"text": "Examples of conduct crimes: Perjury Theft Making off without payment Rape Possession of drugs or a firearm Result - The actus reus may relate to the result of the act or omission of the defendant. The conduct itself may not be criminal, but the result of the conduct may be. Eg it is not a crime to throw a stone, but if it hits a person or smashes a window it could amount to a crime. Causation must be established in all result crimes. Examples of result crimes: Assault Battery ABHWounding and GBHMurder & Manslaughter Criminal damage State of affairs - For state of affairs crimes the actus reus consists of 'being' rather than 'doing'. Eg 'being' drunk in charge of a vehicle ( Duck v Peacock [1949] 1 All ER 318 Case summary ) or 'being' an illegal alien ( R v Larsonneur (1933) 24 Cr App R 74 case summary ). Omission - Occassionally an omission can amount to the actus reus of a crime. The general rule regarding omissions is that there is no liability for a failure to act. Eg if you see a child drowning in shallow water and you don't do anything to save that child you will not incur criminal liability for your inaction no matter how easy it may have been for you to save the child's life. This general rule however, is subject to exceptions:1."

[ 1]: 725-804 A person is an accomplice of another person in the commission of a crime if they purpose the completion of a crime, and toward that end, if that person solicits or encourages the other person, or aids or attempts to aid in planning or committing the crime, or has legal duty to prevent that crime but fails to properly make an effort to prevent it. [ 2]Unlike attempt, solicitation, and conspiracy, which are crimes in and of themselves, complicity is not itself a crime, but is a way of committing a crime. [ 1]: 725 Complicity also differs from attempt, solicitation, and conspiracy in that it always depends on that crime having been completed, i.e., it is never inchoate. [ 1]: 725 Complicity does not require causation of the crime, merely participation in the commission of the crime. [ 3] In cases where one is complicit because of a failure to act when one has a duty to act to prevent a crime, complicity differs from omission in that liability for complicity arises from the relationship to other perpetrators, whereas liability for omission arises from a duty relationship to the victim.

Act [ edit]In order for an actus reus to be committed there has to have been an act. Various common law jurisdictions define act differently but generally, an act is a \"\"bodily movement whether voluntary or involuntary.\"\" [ 2] In Robinson v. California, 370 U. S. 660 (1962), the U. S. Supreme Court ruled that a California law making it illegal to be a drug addict was unconstitutional because the mere status of being a drug addict was not an act and thus not criminal. Commentator Dennis Baker asserts: \"\"Although lawyers find the expression actus reus convenient, it is misleading in one respect. It means not just the criminal act but all the external elements of an offence. Ordinarily, there is a criminal act, which is what makes the term actus reus generally acceptable. But there are crimes without an act, and therefore without an actus reus in the obvious meaning of that term."

[ 1] [2] In some jurisdictions, theft is considered to be synonymous with larceny; [2] in others, theft has replaced larceny. Someone who carries out an act of or makes a career of theft is known as a thief. The act of theft is also known by other terms such as stealing, thieving, and filching. ["

It proscribes conduct perceived as threatening, harmful, or otherwise endangering to the property, health, safety, and moral welfare of people. Most criminal law is established by statute, which is to say that the laws are enacted by a legislature. It includes the punishment of people who violate these laws. Criminal law varies according to jurisdiction, and differs from civil law, where emphasis is more on dispute resolution and victim compensation than on punishment."

"text": "\"Wexall pages articles español Inbox Projectsearch FAQActus Reus The act or omissions that comprise the physical elements of a crime as required by statute. See, e.g. Schad v. Arizona, 501 U. S. 624 (1991). The actus reus includes only the willed bodily movements (i.e. voluntary acts). Thus, if a defendant acted on reflex, then the defendant's conduct does not satisfy the actus reus requirement. The actus reus requirement can also be satisfied by an \"\"omission\"\"; if an individual had a duty to act, and failed to discharge that duty, the individual could be held criminally liable for the result. Generally, for the purposes of criminal liability, an individual is under a duty to act if: A statute requires a person to act in a certain way. For example, if a statute required doctors to keep patients on life support indefinitely, cutting life support would be a breach of statutory duty. A contract requires a person to act in a certain way. Take an individual who contracts with a bodyguard to protect the individual from threats on his or her life; if the bodyguard notices the threat and willfully ignores it, the bodyguard could be found criminally liable. Some special status relationship exists that creates a duty to act in a certain way."

As the fireworks crescendo, you take out your trusty handgun and begin shooting wildly into the sky. You've had a bit to drink, and your aim isn't that great. Suddenly, you fire into a crowd of people, striking another partygoer. You rush to his side, only to realize it's your sworn enemy that you've killed. You let out a shout of excitement, thrilled that your enemy has been killed. Can you be convicted of intentionally murdering your sworn enemy?"

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Non-fatal offences against the person, under English law, are generally taken to mean offences which take the form of an attack directed at another person, that do not result in the death of any person. Such offences where death occurs are considered homicide, whilst sexual offences are generally considered separately, since they differ substantially from other offences against the person in theoretical basis and composition. Non-fatal offences against the person mainly derive from the Offences against the Person Act 1861, although no definition of assault or battery is given there. Offences against the person include minor forms of battery (any unlawful touching of another person); its complimentary offence, assault (causing the apprehension of a battery, even when one has not yet occurred); and various more serious offences which are based on assault and battery (together called \"\"common assault\"\"). This includes assault occasioning actual bodily harm, where the victim suffers injuries such as bruising or skin abrasions (the converse being an injury that is \"\"transient and trifling\"\"); wounding (a piercing of all layers of the skin); and causing grievous bodily harm (injuries more serious than in actual bodily harm, for example broken bones). The latter two offences may be committed \"\"with intent\"\", meaning there is an additional mens rea component that makes the defendant more culpable for their actions. Whilst recklessness is sufficient for most offences against the person – that the defendant foresaw the risk of the proscribed injury occurring without necessarily intending it to happen – this is insufficient for crimes of intent.

Research suggests that it can help relieve pain, and it is used for a wide range of other complaints. However, according to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), there is limited evidence for its effectiveness in areas other than pain.

Considered the original holistic medicine, it has been in use for more than 5,000 years and is performed in conjunction with Chinese herbal medicine and medical massage. Acupuncture provides an understanding of how different symptoms often come from a single problem. This form of medical practice emphasizes the treatment of the whole person; treating the source of the problem and not just the symptoms. “When I came to AWC, I had nowhere left to go for my chronic sinus condition. Now, I no longer have sinus infections. With acupuncture it takes a few minutes for any flare-ups to be controlled. He was able to turn the whole thing around.” –"

"text": "\"Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine Styles of Acupuncture WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT STYLES OF ACUPUNCTURE? While it originated in China, acupuncture is used throughout the world. Different styles have developed over the centuries based on different theories. We would encourage you to speak with your practitioner about his/her style. While the basic theoretical principles of acupuncture are fairly consistent, styles of acupuncture differ greatly in terms of technique and diagnosis. There is no evidence that one particular style is more effective than another, but you should understand as much as possible about the treatment being proposed. Below is a general guide: Traditional Chinese Acupuncture: Traditional Chinese Acupuncture, part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), is the dominant style of acupuncture studied and practiced in the U. S. Japanese Acupuncture: \"\"Japanese-style\"\" acupuncture uses the same meridians and points as Chinese acupuncture but takes a more subtle route, typically using fewer and thinner needles with less stimulation. Korean Hand Acupuncture: This technique focuses on points in the hand that correspond to areas of the body and to certain disharmonies. Auricular Acupuncture: This system, commonly used for pain control and drug, alcohol, and nicotine addiction, focuses on points in the ear that correspond to areas of the body and to certain disharmonies. Medical Acupuncture: When acupuncture is performed by a western Medical Doctor (MD), it is termed \"\"Medical Acupuncture.\"\""

"text": "Overview Acupuncture was developed by traditional Chinese medical practitioners to treat a wide range of health problems. Once only used in Eastern cultures, it has gradually gained acceptance by medical professionals in the West. Acupuncture is now commonly used to treat everything from pain, stress, and nausea. Lesser-known uses, such as the treatment of allergies, are also gaining popularity. History of Acupuncture History of Acupuncture Acupuncture is an ancient practice that started in what is now China. It’s based on the belief that life energy, called qi, pronounced “chee,” flows throughout the body along pathways called meridians. By inserting thin needles at specific points, called “acupuncture points,” skilled practitioners seek to restore the flow of energy to eliminate pain and other ailments. Western medicine doesn’t accept the traditional explanation of acupuncture’s mechanism of action. No evidence that meridians exist has ever been documented by modern science, but despite ongoing questions regarding how it works, science has shown that at least in some instances, it does work. Pain relief is one example."

Systematic reviews of acupuncture and counselling for depression in primary care have identified limited evidence. The aim of this study was to evaluate acupuncture versus usual care and counselling versus usual care for patients who continue to experience depression in primary care. Methods and Findings In a randomised controlled trial, 755 patients with depression (Beck Depression Inventory BDI-II score ≥20) were recruited from 27 primary care practices in the North of England. Patients were randomised to one of three arms using a ratio of 2∶2∶1 to acupuncture (302), counselling (302), and usual care alone (151). The primary outcome was the difference in mean Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) scores at 3 months with secondary analyses over 12 months follow-up. Analysis was by intention-to-treat. PHQ-9 data were available for 614 patients at 3 months and 572 patients at 12 months. Patients attended a mean of ten sessions for acupuncture and nine sessions for counselling."

Intramuscular Stimulation vs. Traditional Acupuncture Facebook Twitter Google+ Reddit Share IMS stands for intramuscular stimulation and is an anatomy specific form of acupuncture performed by specially trained physiotherapists and some doctors. It has its roots in traditional Chinese acupuncture, but is fundamentally different in many ways. IMS uses Western medicine’s understanding of the neurophysiology of pain and Dr Chan Gunn’s assessment techniques of identifying underlying nerve irritations to treat chronic pain issues. The technique does use acupuncture needles, but not in the way someone practicing traditional acupuncture would. Traditional acupuncture focuses on pre-mapped out points in the body that relate to different organs and meridians of energy running through the body. Fine acupuncture needles are then inserted into a number of these points and the person rests with them in for 10-20 minutes. It can be very useful for the right condition, but it is not as specific or as purposeful as IMS. To understand why IMS is performed the way it is you should have a basic understanding of how your body experiences pain.

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

"text": "\"Share this: Tweet Share on Tumblr More Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it– A. Hitler It seems that just about every article about acupuncture makes some reference to it having been used in China for thousands of years. The obvious reason for such a statement is to make the implication that since it’s been around for so long, it must therefore also be effective. Of course, longevity doesn’t argue for efficacy, otherwise everyone would likely agree that astrology is the way to chart one’s life; astrology has been practiced for many more years than acupuncture. What’s maddening about the acupuncture longevity myth is that it isn’t true, and demonstrably so. In human medicine, “needling” was illustrated in the 17th century by western observers: no points, no “meridians,” just a big awl-like “needle,” driven in with an ivory-handled circular hammer. In addition, the rationale for hammering these little spikes into various spots (of the practitioner’s choosing) was said to be “exactly the same” as Greek humoral medicine (see, Carruba, RW, Bowers, JZ. The Western World’s First Detailed Treatise on Acupuncture: Willem ten Rhijne’s De Acupunctura. J Hist Med Allied Sci (1974) XXIX (4): 371-398). The same fallacious assertion is repeated (repeatedly) in veterinary medicine. Acupuncture proponents may assert, for example, that acupuncture is “4,000 years old.”"

The intent of acupuncture is first to promote health and alleviate pain and suffering, and second to provide an effective method whereby disease can be prevented. The methods whereby this is accomplished, though it may seem strange and mysterious to many has been time tested over thousands of years and continues to be validated today. The prospective from which an acupuncturist views health and sickness hinges on a detailed understanding of the bodies physical and energetic systems in relationship with one another rather than being autonomous systems. Our diagnostic methods of pulse reading, tongue observation, and palpation of channels, abdomen, and acu-points all provide the practitioner with a detailed understanding of how our bodies systems are working together and what needs to be done if they are not. The acupuncturist is able to help the body heal itself by re-organizing or re-patterning energetic cycles that have become pathological for some reason. We all have had the feeling like we were stuck in a rut, even if we aren’t having physical signs and symptoms. Acupuncture shows the body what needs to be done to re-calibrate itself so that we naturally move towards a more balanced and sustainable way of being and living. How does acupuncture work?

It is important not to change or stop your medication without consulting the doctor who treats your epilepsy, because this could increase the number or frequency of your seizures, or cause unwanted side effects. Some complementary therapies may help improve epilepsy indirectly because they make you feel better generally. If stress is a trigger for your seizures, a therapy that helps you to feel less stressed may help you to have fewer seizures. People respond differently, and some therapies may help reduce seizures for some people, and not others. Some complementary therapies can increase the risk of seizures, so it is important to know as much as possible about your own epilepsy, and the therapies you are interested in. To help make sure treatments are suitable for you, always use a qualified therapist and tell them about your epilepsy, your seizures, any other conditions you have and any medication that you take. Accessing therapies The therapist may ask for a referral from your GP if they feel the treatment could have a negative effect on your epilepsy. Even if your seizures are not controlled, you should not be denied treatment simply because you have epilepsy.

"text": "What is Acupuncture and how does it work? Acupuncture is one of the oldest continuously practiced healing systems in the world, dating back thousands of years. By focusing on the powerful interconnections of body, mind and spirit, acupuncture is very effective in restoring health and preventing future imbalances. The practice of acupuncture is based on understanding the flow of qi, or vital energy in nature and in ourselves. The Chinese have mapped the flow of qi through our bodies along specific pathways called meridians. When our qi is full and flowing, we experience health. When our qi is obstructed or imbalanced, illness and pain can occur. The symptoms we experience are signals that we need to take measures to restore balance. An acupuncturist works towards this end, adjusting energy flow by stimulating particular points along the acupuncture meridians. When appropriate, acupuncture can be combined with herbal medicine, and/or Western medical treatments, psychotherapy and lifestyle adjustments for optimal benefits."

Traditional Chinese medicine practitioners believe the human body has more than 2,000 acupuncture points connected by pathways or meridians. These pathways create an energy flow (Qi, pronounced \"\"chee\"\") through the body that is responsible for overall health. Disruption of the energy flow can cause disease. By applying acupuncture to certain points, it is thought to improve the flow of Qi, thereby improving health. Studies have shown that acupuncture is effective for a variety of conditions.

From home remedies, fertility drugs, and even surgery, to in vitro fertilization (IVF) and donor eggs and embryos, modern healthcare has vastly expanded the array of options available for couples struggling to conceive. But not all can afford the financial costs of infertility which can range from hundreds of dollars spent on drugs to tens of thousands spent on advanced procedures such as Intrauterine insemination (IUI) and IVF. In the search for affordable and effective health care, alternative and holistic treatments are gaining wider appeal among the general public. Traditional Chinese medicine, for example, has been practiced for thousands of years and includes techniques and practices such as tai chi, moxibustion, tui na, Chinese cupping, and acupuncture. Acupuncture in particular has rapidly grown in acceptance by the general public and practice among therapists today. Not only is acupuncture valued for stress-relieving and relaxing benefits, but also as a component of fertility treatments. When used in conjunction with Western fertility treatments, acupuncture increases conception rates by 26%.

In other words, the person's mental and physical abilities are impaired. In addition to the signs of physical and mental impairment, alcohol levels can also be measured in the blood. Most states have specific levels at which the driving of a motor vehicle is forbidden. Alcohol Intoxication Causes Alcohol is a generic term for ethanol, which is a particular type of alcohol produced by the fermentation of many foodstuffs - most commonly barley, hops, and grapes. Other types of alcohol commonly available such as methanol (common in glass cleaners), isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol), and ethylene glycol (automobile antifreeze solution) are highly poisonous when swallowed, even in small quantities. Ethanol produces intoxication because of its depressive effects on various areas of the brain causing the following physical and mental impairments in a progressive order as the persons alcohol level increases (the person becomes more and more intoxicated). Disinhibition of normal social functioning Euphoria (excessive talking, showing off)Ataxia (uncoordinated gait- walking)Poor judgment Loss of memory Slurred speech Worsening ataxia Vomiting Confusion and disorientation Progressive lethargy and coma Ultimately the shutdown of the respiratory centers and death What happens to brain function: Alcohol increases the effect of the body's naturally occurring neurotransmitter GABA (gamma amino butyric acid). Neurotransmitters are substances that chemically connect the signals from one nerve to the next allowing a signal to flow along a neural pathway. An inhibitory neurotransmitter (alcohol) reduces this signal flow in the brain."

D., is chief of the Laboratory for Integrative Neuroscience at the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, Bethesda, Maryland. Nerve cells (i.e., neurons) communicate via a combination of electrical and chemical signals. Within the neuron, electrical signals driven by charged particles allow rapid conduction from one end of the cell to the other. Communication between neurons occurs at tiny gaps called synapses, where specialized parts of the two cells (i.e., the presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons) come within nanometers of one another to allow for chemical transmission. The presynaptic neuron releases a chemical (i.e., a neurotransmitter) that is received by the postsynaptic neuron’s specialized proteins called neurotransmitter receptors. The neurotransmitter molecules bind to the receptor proteins and alter postsynaptic neuronal function. Two types of neurotransmitter receptors exist—ligand-gated ion channels, which permit rapid ion flow directly across the outer cell membrane, and G-protein–coupled receptors, which set into motion chemical signaling events within the cell. Hundreds of molecules are known to act as neurotransmitters in the brain."

Each withdrawal leads to more severe withdrawal symptoms than in previous episodes. Individuals who have had more withdrawal episodes are at an increased risk of very severe withdrawal symptoms, up to and including seizures and death. Long-term use of GABAergic -acting sedative–hypnotic drugs causes chronic GABA receptor downregulation as well as glutamate overactivity, which can lead to drug and neurotransmitter sensitization, central nervous system hyperexcitability, and excitotoxicity. Contents [ hide ]1 Definition2 Symptoms3 Causes4 Pathophysiology4.1 Benzodiazepines4.2 Alcohol5 Treatment6 See also7 References Definition [ edit]Kindling refers to the phenomenon of increasingly severe withdrawal symptoms, including an increased risk of seizures, that occurs as a result of repeated withdrawal from alcohol or other sedative–hypnotics with related modes of action. Ethanol (alcohol) has a very similar mechanism of tolerance and withdrawal to benzodiazepines, involving the GABA Areceptors , NMDA receptors and AMPA receptors, but the majority of research into kindling has primarily focused on alcohol. [ 1] An intensification of anxiety and other psychological symptoms of alcohol withdrawal also occurs. [ 2]Symptoms [ edit]Binge drinking is believed to increase impulsivity due to altered functioning of prefrontal–subcortical and orbitofrontal circuits. Binge drinking in alcoholics who have undergone repeated detoxification is associated with an inability to interpret facial expressions properly; this is believed to be due to kindling of the amygdala with resultant distortion of neurotransmission. Adolescents, females and young adults are most sensitive to the neuropsychological effects of binge drinking."

"text": "\"Acute intoxication Definition Intoxication is a condition that follows the administration of a psychoactive substance and results in disturbances in the level of consciousness, cognition, perception, judgement, affect, or behaviour, or other psychophysiological functions and responses. The disturbances are related to the acute pharmacological effects of, and learned responses to, the substance and resolve with time, with complete recovery, except where tissue damage or other complications have arisen. The term is most commonly used with regard to alcohol use: its equivalent in everyday speech is \"\"drunkenness\"\". Alcohol intoxication is manifested by such signs as facial flushing, slurred speech, unsteady gait, euphoria, increased activity, volubility, disorderly conduct, slowed reactions, impaired judgement and motor incoordination, insensibility, or stupefaction. Intoxication is highly dependent on the type and dose of drug and is influenced by an individual's level of tolerance and other factors. Frequently, a drug is taken in order to achieve a desired degree of intoxication. The behavioural expression of a given level of intoxication is strongly influenced by cultural and personal expectations about the effects of the drug. Acute intoxication is the term in ICD-I0 for intoxication of clinical significance. Complications may include trauma, inhalation of vomitus, delirium, coma, and convulsions, depending on the substance and method of administration. ICD-10 Clinical description A transient condition following the administration of alcohol or other psychoactive substance, resulting in disturbances in level of consciousness, cognition, perception, affect or behaviour, or other psychophysiological functions and responses."

If you drink long enough, you may find that drinking the same amount you usually drink does not produce the same effect. In other words, if you have developed alcohol tolerance you have to drink increasingly greater amounts of alcohol to feel the same effects you used to feel with fewer drinks. You may think that not having alcohol interfere with your behavior and ability to function like it used to do is a positive occurrence, however, the development of tolerance to alcohol can actually signal pending problems. Tolerance to the effects of alcohol can influence drinking behavior and consequences in many ways. Tolerance to alcohol can: Encourage greater alcohol consumption Contribute to alcohol dependence Cause organ damage Affect the performance of tasks Contribute to the ineffectiveness of medications Increase the toxicity of other drugs Contribute to the risk of alcoholism There are several ways that tolerance to alcohol develops: Functional Tolerance Functional tolerance is when the brain functions of drinkers adapt to compensate for the disruption alcohol causes in their behavior and their bodily functions. Have you ever known someone who could consume large amounts of alcohol and not display any obvious signs of intoxication? That is because that person has developed a functional tolerance to alcohol. When someone has had enough to drink that they should be exhibiting some signs of behavioral impairment and they do not, their tolerance to alcohol is allowing them to drink increasing amounts of alcohol. Functional Tolerance Can Result in Dependence The problem is that higher level of consumption can result in developing a physical dependence on alcohol and developing alcohol-related organ damage."

Short-term effects of alcohol consumption include intoxication and dehydration. Long-term effects of alcohol consumption include changes in the metabolism of the liver and brain and alcoholism. Alcohol intoxication affects the brain, causing slurred speech, clumsiness, and delayed reflexes. Alcohol stimulates insulin production, which speeds up glucose metabolism and can result in low blood sugar, causing irritability and possibly death for diabetics. [ 1] [ medical citation needed] A 2014 World Health Organization report found that harmful alcohol consumption caused about 3.3 million deaths annually worldwide. [ 2]However, some effects of alcohol consumption are beneficial. Although even moderate alcohol consumption increased the risk of death in younger people, it has been shown to decrease the risk of death for individuals ages 55+ (due to decreased risk of ischemic heart disease ). [ 3]The median lethal dose of alcohol in test animals is a blood alcohol content of 0.45%. This is about six times the level of ordinary intoxication (0.08%), but vomiting or unconsciousness may occur much sooner in people who have a low tolerance for alcohol. ["

Thundiyil, MDIntroduction The medical use of lithium has evolved considerably since it was first used for gout and rheumatism in the 1800’s. It was also used as a salt substitute in patients with hypertension, and was at one point present in the soft drink 7-Up. In the 1970’s, the US FDA approved the use of lithium for the treatment of acute mania following studies in the 1950’s by Cade and Schou. Currently, lithium is used to treat a variety of disorders including cluster headaches, alcoholism, and Grave’s disease. Lithium is most commonly used, however, as the treatment of choice for recurrent bipolar disorder (manic-depressive illness). Case presentation A 46 year old man presented with drowsiness and slurred speech after an intentional ingestion of his sustained release lithium capsules. His roommate described multiple episodes of vomiting and diarrhea with some pill fragments seen in the vomitus. The patient’s pulse was 105 beats/min, blood pressure was 140/73 mm Hg, and respirations 18/min. He did not respond to naloxone (Narcan). His fingerstick glucose was normal so he was not given dextrose, but the paramedics administered activated charcoal en route to the hospital."

"text": "Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome Symptoms and Causesdiagnosis Wernicke's encephalopathy is suspected when individuals seeking medical attention present with the classic trio of signs: 1) mental confusion, 2) eye movement disorders, and 3) ataxia (lack of coordination). The presence of anterograde amnesia (loss of memory of present events) and a history of chronic (long-term) heavy drinking, or malnutrition suggest a diagnosis of Korsakoff's syndrome. When Korsakoff's syndrome follows a previous diagnosis of Wernicke's encephalopathy, the entire Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome diagnosis is appropriate. Diagnosis can be confirmed by neuroimaging (brain imaging) or when autopsy after death findings show degeneration of parts of the brain including the thalamus and mammillary bodies, along with loss of brain volume in the area surrounding the fourth ventricle (a fluid-filled cavity near the brainstem). Changes in brain structure and function are found with neuroimaging. Mental status: Mental status changes are present in 90% of patients and appear in various forms. For a diagnosis of Wernicke-Korsakoff's syndrome, memory impairment must significantly inhibit an individual's ability to perform normal activities and functions and it must represent a decline from a previous level of functioning. Amnesia does not occur exclusively during states of delirium, alcohol intoxication, or withdrawal, nor is it exclusively associated with dementia. Individuals with Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome frequently demonstrate problems with executive functions, contributing to the symptoms of confusion and apathy. Physical examination: Physical examination of the nervous/muscular systems may show decreased reflexes and impaired gait and coordination."

In people with frequent outbreaks, acyclovir is used to help reduce the number of future episodes. Acyclovir is an antiviral drug. However, it is not a cure for these infections. The viruses that cause these infections continue to live in the body even between outbreaks. Acyclovir decreases the severity and length of these outbreaks. It helps the sores heal faster, keeps new sores from forming, and decreases pain/ itching. This medication may also help reduce how long pain remains after the sores heal."

The guidelines are intended for use by health care providers who care for patients with encephalitis. The guideline includes data on the epidemiology, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of many viral, bacterial, fungal, protozoal, and helminthic etiologies of encephalitis and provides information on when specific etiologic agents should be considered in individual patients with encephalitis. Topic:encephalitis diagnosis causality infectious diseases society of america Issue Section: IDSA Guideline Executive Summary Encephalitis is defined by the presence of an inflammatory process of the brain in association with clinical evidence of neurologic dysfunction. Of the pathogens reported to cause encephalitis, the majority are viruses. However, despite extensive testing, the etiology of encephalitis remains unknown in most patients. Another major challenge for patients with encephalitis is to determine the relevance of an infectious agent identified outside of the CNS; these agents may play a role in the neurologic manifestations of illness but not necessarily by directly invading the CNS. In addition, it is important to distinguish between infectious encephalitis and postinfectious or postimmunization encephalitis or encephalomyelitis (e.g., acute disseminated encephalomyelitis [ADEM]), which may be mediated by an immunologic response to an antecedent antigenic stimulus from an infecting microorganism or immunization. Noninfectious CNS diseases (e.g., vasculitis, collagen vascular disorders, and paraneoplastic syndromes) can have clinical presentations similar to those of infectious causes of encephalitis and should also be considered in the differential diagnosis. In the approach to the patient with encephalitis, an attempt should be made to establish an etiologic diagnosis."

"text": "Herpes & Pregnancy If a woman with genital herpes has virus present in the birth canal during delivery, herpes simplex virus (HSV) can be spread to an infant, causing neonatal herpes, a serious and sometimes fatal condition. Neonatal herpes can cause an overwhelming infection resulting in lasting damage to the central nervous system, mental retardation, or death. Medication, if given early, may help prevent or reduce lasting damage, but even with antiviral medication, this infection has serious consequences for most infected infants. While neonatal herpes is a serious condition, it is also very rare. Less than 0.1% of babies born in the United States each year get neonatal herpes. By contrast, some 25-30% of pregnant women have genital herpes. This means that most women with genital herpes give birth to healthy babies. Babies are most at risk for neonatal herpes if the mother contracts genital herpes late in pregnancy. This is because a newly infected mother does not have antibodies against the virus, so there is no natural protection for the baby during birth. In addition, a new herpes infection is frequently active, so there is an increased possibility the virus will be present in the birth canal during delivery."

"text": "Blog How To Stop And Heal Cold Sores with Essential Oils May 20, 2014In January Scott and I went on a vacation to Roatan, Honduras. I always choose places with good food and Central America has been great for us in the past because they serve locally caught seafood and locally grown veggies. Some of my most memorable meals are from when we were on a tiny island off the coast of Mexico and when we went to Panama. We had fresh eggs and veggies every morning. And I still dream about this raw tuna and veggie dish (I didn’t eat the bread). And in Mexico, we found some of the freshest, tastiest ceviches. But in Roatan, despite good reviews and the fact that it’s an island, we did not have good food. I had even called to confirm we could eat gluten and soy free. But for some reason, all of the food was imported, even the seafood. There was no fresh fish."

Toilets flushing… water running… washing machine spinning… all the music of your plumbing you’ve grown accustom to, almost to the point of it being comforting. There are, however, plumbing sounds that are not comforting. In fact, noisy pipes are down-right nerve wracking. That loud banging that makes you jump out of your skin and worry that something’s about to come right trough the wall. Or, that high-pitched whistling that makes a hot, relaxing shower anything but. After watching a movie or two, you might get the idea that noisy pipes are normal, especially if you live in an older home. Well, they’re not. Pipes are not supposed to bang or whistle.

"text": "Genital herpes is a chronic, life-long viral infection. Two types of HSV can cause genital herpes: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Most cases of recurrent genital herpes are caused by HSV-2, and approximately 50 million persons in the United States are infected with this type of genital herpes (318). However, an increasing proportion of anogenital herpetic infections have been attributed to HSV-1 infection, which is especially prominent among young women and MSM (319-321). Most persons infected with HSV-2 have not had the condition diagnosed. Many such persons have mild or unrecognized infections but shed virus intermittently in the anogenital area. As a result, most genital herpes infections are transmitted by persons unaware that they have the infection or who are asymptomatic when transmission occurs. Management of genital HSV should address the chronic nature of the disease rather than focusing solely on treatment of acute episodes of genital lesions. Diagnostic Considerations The clinical diagnosis of genital herpes can be difficult, because the painful multiple vesicular or ulcerative lesions typically associated with HSV are absent in many infected persons. Recurrences and subclinical shedding are much more frequent for genital HSV-2 infection than for genital HSV-1 infection (322,323)."

Chickenpox is a highly contagious illness caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), a type of herpes virus. It is often a mild illness, characterized by an itchy rash on the face, scalp and trunk with pink spots and tiny fluid-filled blisters that dry and become scabs four to five days later. Serious complications, although rare, can occur mainly in infants, adolescents, adults and persons with a weakened immune system. These complications include bacterial infections of skin blisters, pneumonia, and encephalitis (inflammation of the brain). In temperate climates, such as the Northeast, chickenpox occurs most frequently in the late winter and early spring. Who gets chickenpox? Chickenpox is a common childhood illness with 90 percent of the cases occurring in children younger than ten years of age. Before the availability of the varicella vaccine in the U. S., almost everyone developed chickenpox. Most people who are vaccinated will not get chickenpox."

"text": "Keratitis Inflammation of the cornea. Pub Med Health Glossary (Source: NIH - National Cancer Institute)Part of: Corneal Conditions About the Eye About Keratitis Sometimes the cornea is damaged after a foreign object has entered the tissue, such as from a poke in the eye. At other times, bacteria or fungi from a contaminated contact lens can pass into the cornea. Situations like these can cause painful inflammation and corneal infections called keratitis. These infections can reduce visual clarity, produce corneal discharges, and perhaps erode the cornea. Corneal infections can also lead to corneal scarring, which can impair vision and may require a corneal transplant. As a general rule, the deeper the corneal infection, the more severe the symptoms and complications. It should be noted that corneal infections, although relatively infrequent, are the most serious complication of contact lens wear. Minor corneal infections are commonly treated with anti-bacterial eye drops. If the problem is severe, it may require more intensive antibiotic or anti-fungal treatment to eliminate the infection, as well as steroid eye drops to reduce inflammation."

Bells palsy affects 1/60 persons at some time of their life (Sullivan et al, 2016) The symptoms on the affected side typically include inability to close the eye, to smile, wrinkle the forehead and whistle. Speech may be mildly slurred. Tearing occurs because the eye does not close completely. Taste sensation may be diminished on the front half of the tongue. Sounds may appear louder on the affected side (hyperacusis) -- this may be caused by paralysis of the stapedius muscle but also occurs independantly. Papillitis may be seen of the fungiform papillae of the affected side. Bell's palsy usually develops over hours to days. The peak involvement usually happens within several days."

See related patient information handouts on what you should know about herpes and what you can do about herpes, written by the author of this article. Herpes simplex virus infection is increasingly common in the United States. New antiviral medications have expanded treatment options for the two most common cutaneous manifestations, orolabial and genital herpes. Acyclovir therapy remains an effective and often less expensive option. Famciclovir and valacyclovir offer improved oral bioavailability and convenient oral dosing schedules but are more expensive than acyclovir. Patients who have six or more recurrences of genital herpes per year can be treated with one of the following regimens: acyclovir, 400 mg twice daily; valacyclovir, 1 g daily; or famciclovir, 250 mg twice daily. These regimens are effective in suppressing 70 to 80 percent of symptomatic recurrences. Episodic treatment of recurrent genital herpes is of questionable benefit, but it may be helpful in appropriately selected patients."

While committees can be utilized to alleviate the board of some tasks and help increase efficiency, committee formation should not be taken lightly or used overzealously because the ultimate oversight is still the board’s responsibility. If done improperly, committees instead complicate the board’s workload and cause inefficiencies in the nonprofit corporation’s operation. Importantly, successful committee use begins with understanding the basics of a board versus non-board committee and a standing versus ad hoc committee. Board versus Non-board committee The board versus non-board distinction speaks mainly to the authority given to a committee. In California, every nonprofit public benefit corporation must have a board of directors. This board possesses corporate powers which can be delegated to a board committee, subject to eight exceptions that only the board can carry out. See Calif. Corp. Code § 5212 (a). A committee that has been given power to act with the authority of the board is called a board committee. The board has flexibility in how much authority to give to a board committee; it can grant a specific corporate power or the full extent of authority possible under the law."

"text": "Ad Hoc Reporting Ad-hoc reporting is a model of business intelligence (BI) in which reports are built and distributed by nontechnical business intelligence users. In other words, with ad-hoc reporting, all the technical user does is set up the BI solution, connect it to the data-sources, establish security parameters and determine which objects end-users can see. From that point on, the actual reports are created by business end-users. Ad-hoc is Latin for “as the occasion requires.” This means that with this BI model, users can use their reporting and analysis solution to answer their business questions “as the occasion requires,” without having to request queries from IT. Naturally, ad-hoc reports can be and look as simple as a one page data table or as complex and rich as interactive tabular or cross-tab reports with drill-down and visualization features –or present themselves in the form of dashboards, heat maps, or other more advanced forms. This depends in large part on a) the type of ad-hoc solution employed, b) the needs of the end-user and c) the user’s confidence with the solution. Want to see ad-hoc reporting in action? Check out this on-demand demo of Logi’s dashboarding and reporting solution. Ad-hoc reporting stands in contrast with managed reporting, in which it is the technical user–the report developer–who creates and distributes the report."

Here's what you need to know to get your Wi-Fi-enabled printer up and running. By M. David Stone May 20, 2015 1:45PM ESTFacebook Twitter Linkedin Pinterest Reddit Email Copy Connecting a wired printer is easy. Pick the right cable, and then plug one end into the printer and the other into a computer or network. Connecting a wireless printer, on the other hand, is ... well ... not as easy. Even when everything goes smoothly, as it usually does, it's still more complicated than plugging in a cable. One issue to keep in mind is that there's more than one type of wireless printing. Bluetooth-enabled printers, for example, are wireless printers, and so are printers that offer infrared (Ir DA) connections.

"text": "\"Azure Insider - Hadoop and HDInsight: Big Data in Windows Azure By Bruno Terkaly, Ricardo Villalobos | September 2013Let’s begin with a bold assertion: “If you, your startup, or the enterprise you work for aren’t saving massive quantities of data to disk for current and future analysis, you are compromising your effectiveness as a technical leader.” Isn’t it foolish to base important business decisions on gut instinct alone, rather than real quantitative data? There are many reasons why big data is so pervasive. First, it’s amazingly cheap to collect and store data in any form, structured or unstructured, especially with the help of products such as Windows Azure Storage services. Second, it’s economical to leverage the cloud to provide the needed compute power—running on commodity hardware—to analyze this data. Finally, big data done well provides a major competitive advantage to businesses because it’s possible to extract undiscovered information from vast quantities of unstructured data. The purpose of this month’s article is to show how you can leverage the Windows Azure platform—in particular the Windows Azure HDInsight Service—to solve big data challenges. Barely a day goes by without some hyped-up story in the IT press—and sometimes even in the mainstream media—about big data. Big data refers simply to data sets so large and complex that they’re difficult to process using traditional techniques, such as data cubes, de-normalized relational tables and batch-based extract, transform and load (ETL) engines, to name a few. Advocates talk about extracting business and scientific intelligence from petabytes of unstructured data that might originate from a variety of sources: sensors, Web logs, mobile devices and the Internet of Things, or Io T (technologies based on radio-frequency identification [RFID], such as near-field communication, barcodes, Quick Response [QR] codes and digital watermarking)."

"text": "\"Business & Finance Careers & Employment Other - Careers & Employment What does an \"\"ad hoc\"\" job mean? I went to an interview yesterday for a salesperson and the interviewer said that the role was an ad hoc role. I should have asked what it meant (because it wasn't in the job description when I applied) but I didn't want to seem like I didn't know what I was doing so I didn't ask. Help!Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: An ad hoc job can mean any one or both of these things: 1. Your duties can be varied in the day, you might be answering the phone, then you might be making the tea, after that you might be asked to carry some boxes to different offices, then you might be asked to go out and post some mail etc. In short you will be a \"\"dogsbody\"\" doing boring and menial tasks. 2. The other meaning would be that the job is not a regular one, say if the job is one of delivering stationery, you wil only be called in when they are going out for a delivery and the rest of the time you have to occupy yourself. Employers are very crafty nowadays and in a lot of the basic roles they add one line at the bottom saying that they are also entitled to give you ad hoc duties. What that means is that if they see you sitting free and idle they can ask you to do anything else like answering the phone, filing documents, getting sandwiches etc.gk · 7 years ago6 0 1 comment Asker's rating Ad Hoc Work Source (s):https://shrink.im/a01NOfreedman · 2 years ago0 0 Comment This Site Might Help You."

"text": "Fallacies What this handout is about This handout discusses common logical fallacies that you may encounter in your own writing or the writing of others. The handout provides definitions, examples, and tips on avoiding these fallacies. Arguments Most academic writing tasks require you to make an argument—that is, to present reasons for a particular claim or interpretation you are putting forward. You may have been told that you need to make your arguments more logical or stronger. And you may have worried that you simply aren’t a logical person or wondered what it means for an argument to be strong. Learning to make the best arguments you can is an ongoing process, but it isn’t impossible: “Being logical” is something anyone can do, with practice. Each argument you make is composed of premises (this is a term for statements that express your reasons or evidence) that are arranged in the right way to support your conclusion (the main claim or interpretation you are offering). You can make your arguments stronger by:using good premises (ones you have good reason to believe are both true and relevant to the issue at hand),making sure your premises provide good support for your conclusion (and not some other conclusion, or no conclusion at all),checking that you have addressed the most important or relevant aspects of the issue (that is, that your premises and conclusion focus on what is really important to the issue), andnot making claims that are so strong or sweeping that you can’t really support them. You also need to be sure that you present all of your ideas in an orderly fashion that readers can follow. See our handouts on argument and organization for some tips that will improve your arguments."

Many other rogue access points, however, are deployed by employees wanting unfettered wireless access—these access points are called soft access points. Other rogues are located in neighboring companies using your network for free access. Typically low-cost and consumer-grade, these access points often do not broadcast their presence over the wire and can only be detected over-the-air. Because they are typically installed in their default mode, authentication and encryption are not enabled, thereby creating a security hazard. Because wireless LAN signals can traverse building walls, an open access point connected to the corporate network the perfect target for war driving.

"text": "\"AQUINAS ON TRUTHThe following passages from Thomas Aquinas “Summa Theologiae” constitute something very close to that which, in the terms of modern philosophical logic, would be called a “theory of truth”. In the course of his presentation of objections and responses in this section of the Summa, that is to say, Aquinas generally avoids simple theological platitudes and sets out to provide a relatively coherent account of the fundamental nature and meaning of truth. Aquinas view of truth, as is the case with so much of his philosophy, is obviously deeply influenced by Aristotle, whom he refers to throughout the Summa simply as “The Philosopher”. However, it is also interesting to note that he begins almost every one of the subsections of Q.16 with a reference to Augustine as a point of departure for the discussions of each of the individual points which follow. Aquinas also refers to Anselm and several other medieval scholastic writers who have written on the topic of truth or on matters intimately related to it. Hence, while it is obvious that his approach consists essentially in adapting the teachings of Aristotle in order to make them compatible with the doctrines of Christianity, it is also obvious that Aquinas has thoroughly read and analyzed the work of other philosophers and thinkers and strives to come to his own conclusions, by using the methods of logical argumentation, on the question of the nature of truth. To come specifically to the passages in question, probably the central thesis that we find in Aquinas is that that are two key types of truth and that these are always to be kept distinct when we think about this concept. There is divine truth and there is human truth. Human truth is inherently finite, relative, and mutable, while divine truth is eternal, absolute and immutable. Both forms of truth can be further subdivided into the truth of the intellect (which is primary) and the truth which exists in things (which is secondary)."

FTR2.12062007.10Share Email Twitter Facebook Pinterest Tools Get Citation Alerts Supervision in speech-language pathology has added a different dimension in recent years, as speech-language pathology assistants (SLPAs) have emerged as support personnel in educational and health care settings as well as in private practices. Is this supervision experience different from supervising graduate students or clinical fellows? And how can a speech-language pathologist prepare to be an effective supervisor of an SLPA? One of the most fulfilling aspects of any satisfying relationship is reciprocity. To reciprocate is to give or take mutually, to be complementary, and derives from the Latin reciprocâre, “to move back and forth” ( The American Heritage Dictionary, 1969). In the supervisory relationship between an SLP and SLPA, each person has much to give and much to receive. In order to achieve mutual respect, it is important to differentiate the roles of clinician and assistant and to be aware of what each offers to the professional relationship."

Non-logical arguments, statements that cannot be logically proven or disproved, are important in argumentative writing—such as appeals to emotions or values. Illogical arguments, on the other hand, are false and must be avoided. Logic is a formal system of analysis that helps writers invent, demonstrate, and prove arguments. It works by testing propositions against one another to determine their accuracy. People often think they are using logic when they avoid emotion or make arguments based on their common sense, such as \"\"Everyone should look out for their own self-interests\"\" or \"\"People have the right to be free.\"\""

"text": "A tariff is a tax placed on imported goods. Each country has separate regulations, but there are five main types of tariffs: revenue, ad valorem, specific, prohibitive and protective. A revenue tariff increases government funds. For example, countries that do not grow bananas may create a tax on importing bananas. The government would then make money from businesses that import the fruit. An ad valorem tariff means that the tax applies to a percentage of the import's value such as a set number of cents on every dollar of value. A specific tariff, on the other hand, means that the tax is not concerned with the estimated value of the imported goods, but rather is based on specific amount of the goods. This type may apply to the number of goods imported or to the weight, volume or other measurement of the goods. A prohibitive tariff is one that is such as high cost that it keeps the item from being imported. A protective tariff is used to raise the price of imported goods as a protective measure against the competition from foreign markets."

"text": "back to top Specific and ad valorem customs duties Customs duties can be designated in either specific or ad valorem terms or as a mix of the two. In case of a specific duty, a concrete sum is charged for a quantitative description of the good, for example USD 1 per item or per unit. The customs value of the good does not need to be determined, as the duty is not based on the value of the good but on other criteria. In this case, no rules on customs valuation are needed and the Valuation Agreement does not apply. In contrast, an ad valorem duty depends on the value of a good. Under this system, the customs valuation is multiplied by an ad valorem rate of duty (e.g. 5 per cent) in order to arrive at the amount of duty payable on an imported item.back to top Definition Customs valuation is a customs procedure applied to determine the customs value of imported goods. If the rate of duty is ad valorem, the customs value is essential to determine the duty to be paid on an imported good.back to top Short historical overview Article VII GATTArticle VII of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade laid down the general principles for an international system of valuation. It stipulated that the value for customs purposes of imported merchandise should be based on the actual value of the imported merchandise on which duty is assessed, or of like merchandise, and should not be based on the value of merchandise of national origin or on arbitrary or fictitious values. Although Article VII also contains a definition of “actual value”, it still permitted the use of widely differing methods of valuing goods. In addition, ‘grandfather clauses’ permitted continuation of old standards which did not even meet the very general new standard."

Community development districts (CDDs) are independent special-purpose units of government established to finance basic services within a development, including infrastructure construction, services and maintenance. Common infrastructure improvements provided by CDDs include: • drainage • potable water • sewerage • roads and parks Developers seek CDD approval to obtain low-cost financing by issuing tax-exempt bonds, with lower interest rates. CDDs also have the power to collect fees, levy lienable assessments or ad valorem taxes against properties within the project for repayment. CDDs are required to have a five-member board of supervisors, elected by the landowners. Below is the \"\"official\"\" definition from Florida statute 190.003. \"\" Community development district\"\" means a local unit of special-purpose government which is created pursuant to this act and limited to the performance of those specialized functions authorized by this act; the boundaries of which are contained wholly within a single county; the governing head of which is a body created, organized, and constituted and authorized to function specifically as prescribed in this act for the delivery of urban community development services; and the formation, powers, governing body, operation, duration, accountability, requirements for disclosure, and termination of which are as required by general law“. There are many CDDs in Hillsborough County. Many of the newer housing developments have CDDs. Most of the CDDs charge the homeowners with a fee or ad valorem tax which is paid yearly, usually with your real estate property tax bill."

In Collier County, Florida, Ad Valorem taxes are collected by the Collier County Tax Assessor. Ad valorem taxes include taxes on real estate and on a business's tangible personal property. Real estate ad valorem taxes Real estate ad valorem taxes are expressed in millage rates. The millage rate is basically the tax per thousand dollars of the taxable value of your property as determined by the Collier County Property Appraiser. The Property Appraiser weighs such factors as market value, location, usage, etc. to arrive at the property's taxable value. The tax can be calculated with the formula taxable value / 1000 x millage rate. For example, if the millage rate is 9 and the taxable value of your property is assessed at $100,000, the amount of the tax would be $900. A mill is one-tenth of one percent (or one one-thousandth) of the property's value."

"text": "FAQGeneral When are my property taxes due? Property taxes are due October 1, and are delinquent after December 31. Will my taxes go up every year? There are two reasons for your property taxes to increase: (1) a tax rate (millage) increase, or (2) an increase in the appraised value of the property. The first reason, a tax rate increase, would have to come from a vote of the citizens or by the taxing authority (County Commission) to increase (or decrease) the millage rate. The second situation, involving an increase in the appraised value, would come from a court ordered re-appraisal or from an “economically-based” increase in the market value of properties in the county, resulting in an increase in the appraised value. What is a mill? A mill is one-tenth of one cent. The number of mills an agency charges for taxes is multiplied times the assessed value of the property, and the result is the tax amount due. For example: $100,000 (Appraised Value) X (Assessment Rate: 10%) = $10,000 (Assessed Value) X .0325 (County Millage Rate) = $325.00 (Tax Amount)What is a homestead exemption?"

Tariffs are sometimes very large (everywhere in the 1930s and in some developing countries in the early twenty-first century) and sometimes very low ( Hong Kong in the early twenty-first century). Tariffs are substantially discriminatory between international trading partners. Regional trade agreements such as the European Union (EU) and the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) remove tariffs between the members while imposing tariffs on nonmembers. Tariffs also significantly discriminate between goods. Tariff schedules of most countries contain over 10,000 lines with tariffs ranging in some cases from 0 percent to over 100 percent. Tariffs come in specific and ad valorem forms. Specific tariffs are charges per unit, for example, $1,000 per automobile. Ad valorem tariffs are levied as a percentage of invoice value. A 5 percent tariff levied on a $20,000 automobile yields a $1,000 specific tariff equivalent."

Title I of the ADA covers employment by private employers with 15 or more employees as well as state and local government employers of the same size. Section 501 of the Rehabilitation Act provides the same protections for federal employees and applicants for federal employment. The ADA protects a qualified individual with a disability from disparate treatment or harassment based on disability, and also provides that, absent undue hardship, a qualified individual with a disability is entitled to reasonable accommodation to perform, or apply for, a job or to enjoy the benefits and privileges of employment. The ADA also includes rules regarding when, and to what extent, employers may seek medical information from applicants or employees. The U. S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) enforces the employment provisions of the ADA. Most states also have their own laws prohibiting employment discrimination on the basis of disability."

History of the Americans with Disabilities Act With the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, African-Americans were given protection against racial discrimination. In 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) extended the legal protections against discrimination to the handicapped. The ADA specifications are required in public buildings, they are recommendations for private establishments. As the American population ages, the number of people in wheelchairs or with walkers is also increasing. Handicapped people might use a sink as a support against falling.

"text": "Print-Friendly PDF | Large-Print PDFBusinesses that employ more than 15 individuals are covered by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The ADA’s regulations have specific requirements regarding the provision of parking that vary depending on whether the employer is in control of the parking lot, whether parking is offered as a benefit of employment, and whether a parking space (accessible or designated) constitutes a reasonable accommodation for an employee with a disability. The following scenarios will explain the legal obligations of businesses with regard to parking policies and practices under the ADA.1. My business owns the parking lot adjacent to our building and the lot is open to both customers and employees. Parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Businesses offering parking are required by the Americans with Disabilities Act to ensure availability of a certain number of accessible parking spaces. See the ADA 2010 Standards for Accessible Design (mandatory effective March 15, 2012: http://www.access-board.gov/ada-aba/ada-standards-doj.cfm#routes) and the ADA 1991 Standards (may be used only until March 15, 2012: http://www.ada.gov/stdspdf.htm ). An accessible parking space is a space with an access aisle that adjoins an accessible route. An accessible route is defined as a continuous, unobstructed way of pedestrian passage by means of which an area can be approached, entered, and exited, and which connects the area with an exterior approach such as a sidewalk, street, or parking area. What area must be made accessible via an accessible path of travel is broadly defined as an area’s “primary function”; for example, if it is a conference facility, then access to the conference rooms must be provided via an accessible route."

Under the ADA, employers are only required to provide reasonable accommodations for functional limitation that are due to a disabling condition.

According to American Disabilities Act, the term “qualified individuals with a disability” means an individual with a disability who, with or without reasonable accommodation, can perform the essential functions of the employment position that such individual holds or desires. Myths and Facts about the Americans with Disabilities Act Myth: ADA suits are flooding the courts. Fact: The ADA has resulted in a surprisingly small number of lawsuits — only about 650 nationwide in five years. That’s tiny compared to the 6 million businesses; 666,000 public and private employers; and 80,000 units of state and local government that must comply.

"text": "U. S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division Disability Rights Section Service Animals The Department of Justice published revised final regulations implementing the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) for title II (State and local government services) and title III (public accommodations and commercial facilities) on September 15, 2010, in the Federal Register. These requirements, or rules, clarify and refine issues that have arisen over the past 20 years and contain new, and updated, requirements, including the 2010 Standards for Accessible Design (2010 Standards). Overview This publication provides guidance on the term “service animal” and the service animal provisions in the Department’s new regulations. Beginning on March 15, 2011, only dogs are recognized as service animals under titles II and III of the ADA. A service animal is a dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for a person with a disability. Generally, title II and title III entities must permit service animals to accompany people with disabilities in all areas where members of the public are allowed to go. How “Service Animal” Is Defined Service animals are defined as dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. Examples of such work or tasks include guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, pulling a wheelchair, alerting and protecting a person who is having a seizure, reminding a person with mental illness to take prescribed medications, calming a person with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) during an anxiety attack, or performing other duties. Service animals are working animals, not pets. The work or task a dog has been trained to provide must be directly related to the person’s disability."

"text": "Research August 3, 2016The Antideficiency Act: A Primer Gordon Gray Executive Summary [1]The Antideficiency Act (ADA) bars federal employees from spending or otherwise obligating funds to be spent in excess of amounts or for the purpose approved by Congress, accepting voluntary services, or spending or otherwise obligating funds in excess of agency spending plans. Unique to all budget laws includes potential criminal penalties, in addition to administrative sanctions, for violations. However, no one has ever been prosecuted under this statute. In the past ten years 8 federal employees have been suspended or removed from their positions for violations. Despite these possible penalties, violations continue to occur, with 197 violations reported covering more than $9.66 billion dollars – with a $1.6 billion expenditure being the largest instance. While seemingly related to budget minutiae, the ADA is remarkably broad in its influence on governance: it determines the mechanics of government shutdowns and has arisen in a diverse array of public policy areas from the Bergdahl prisoner exchange to ongoing litigation over the Affordable Care Act. Introduction Article I, section 9 of the Constitution states: “No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law.” It is from this clause that Congress derives its “power of the purse,” or its prerogative over the nation’s finances. It is Congress’s most jealously guarded authority and likely the strongest check against the power of the executive branch. But these 16 words are hardly definitive and leave room for quite a bit of interpretation not often shared at both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue."

"text": "\"Employer-Provided Leave and the Americans with Disabilities Act [1] (May 9, 2016)Introduction The U. S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) enforces Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The ADA prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability in employment and requires that covered employers (employers with 15 or more employees) provide reasonable accommodations to applicants and employees with disabilities that require such accommodations due to their disabilities. A reasonable accommodation is, generally, \"\"any change in the work environment or in the way things are customarily done that enables an individual with a disability to enjoy equal employment opportunities.\"\" [ 2] That can include making modifications to existing leave policies and providing leave when needed for a disability, even where an employer does not offer leave to other employees. [ 3] As with any other accommodation, the goal of providing leave as an accommodation is to afford employees with disabilities equal employment opportunities. The EEOC continues to receive charges indicating that some employers may be unaware of Commission positions about leave and the ADA. For example, some employers may not know that they may have to modify policies that limit the amount of leave employees can take when an employee needs additional leave as a reasonable accommodation. Employer policies that require employees on extended leave to be 100 percent healed or able to work without restrictions may deny some employees reasonable accommodations that would enable them to return to work. Employers also sometimes fail to consider reassignment as an option for employees with disabilities who cannot return to their jobs following leave. This document seeks to provide general information to employers and employees regarding when and how leave must be granted for reasons related to an employee's disability in order to promote voluntary compliance with the ADA."

Thanks to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, Americans with disabilities have greater access to goods and services from businesses, state and local governments, and their local communities than every before. However, in many areas, the ADA remains unimplemented. Individuals with disabilities and their families and friends continue to encounter inaccessible facilities and situations where businesses, employers or public entities do not seem aware of the requirements of the ADA. On the17th anniversary of the passage of the ADA, John R. Vaughn, chairperson of the National Council on Disability, noted that “public awareness and societal attitude issues still inhibit the full promise of the ADA.” Efforts to promote awareness of and compliance with the ADA remain needed. In 2001, President George W. Bush stated, “Wherever a door is closed to anyone because of a disability, we must work to open it. Wherever any job or home, or means of transportation is unfairly denied because of a disability, we must work to change it. Wherever any barrier stands between you and the full rights and dignity of citizenship, we must work to remove it…We must all do our duty and play our part. ”As we advocate for our rights, and for the rights of our family members, it is important to know how the complaint process works and the crucial role we play in ensuring that it does."

Individuals with disabilities include those who have impairments that substantially limit a major life activity, have a record (or history) of a substantially limiting impairment, or are regarded as having a disability. [ 1]Title I of the ADA covers employment by private employers with 15 or more employees as well as state and local government employers. Section 501 of the Rehabilitation Act provides similar protections related to federal employment. In addition, most states have their own laws prohibiting employment discrimination on the basis of disability. Some of these state laws may apply to smaller employers and may provide protections in addition to those available under the ADA. [ 2]The U. S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) enforces the employment provisions of the ADA. This document, which is one of a series of question-and-answer documents addressing particular disabilities in the workplace, [3] explains how the ADA applies to job applicants and employees with vision impairments. In particular, this document explains:when an employer may ask an applicant or employee questions about his vision impairment and how it should treat voluntary disclosures;what types of reasonable accommodations employees with visual disabilities may need;how an employer should handle safety concerns about applicants and employees with visual disabilities; andhow an employer can ensure that no employee is harassed because of a visual disability or any other disability.

A: Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), privately owned businesses that serve the public, such as restaurants, hotels, retail stores, taxicabs, theaters, concert halls, and sports facilities, are prohibited from discriminating against individuals with disabilities. The ADA requires these businesses to allow people with disabilities to bring their service animals onto business premises in whatever areas customers are generally allowed.2. Q: What is a service animal? A: The ADA defines a service animal as any guide dog, signal dog, or other animal individually trained to provide assistance to an individual with a disability. If they meet this definition, animals are considered service animals under the ADA regardless of whether they have been licensed or certified by a state or local government. Service animals perform some of the functions and tasks that the individual with a disability cannot perform for him or herself. Guide dogs are one type of service animal, used by some individuals who are blind. This is the type of service animal with which most people are familiar."

This law made a number of significant changes to the definition of “disability.” It also directed the U. S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to amend its ADA regulations to reflect the changes made by the ADAAA. The final regulations were published in the Federal Register on March 25, 2011. The EEOC is making changes to both the Title I ADA regulations and to the Interpretive Guidance (also known as the Appendix) that was published with the original ADA regulations. The Appendix provides further explanation on how the regulations should be interpreted. The questions and answers below provide information on the changes made to the regulations as a result of the ADAAA and identify certain regulations that remain the same. The answers below also note where the final regulations differ from what appeared in the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that was published September 23, 2009. Finally, answers to certain questions provide citations to specific sections of the final regulations and the corresponding section of the Appendix (29 C. F. R. section 1630).1.

The series aired from October 28, 2011 to March 31, 2017, for 123 episodes, over six seasons. [ 1] The series' narrative follows Portland Homicide detective Nick Burkhardt (played by David Giuntoli ), who discovers he is a Grimm, the latest in a line of guardians who are sworn to keep the balance between humanity and mythological creatures, known as Wesen. The series features a supporting cast consisting of Russell Hornsby, Bitsie Tulloch, Silas Weir Mitchell, Sasha Roiz, Reggie Lee, Bree Turner, and Claire Coffee. Grimm was originally developed for CBS, but plans were canceled due to the writers' strike. In January 2011, NBC opted for the series. It has been described as \"\"a cop drama—with a twist ... a dark and fantastical project about a world in which characters inspired by Grimms' Fairy Tales exist\"\", [2] although the stories and characters inspiring the show are also drawn from other sources."

"text": "\"Grimm \"\"Hibernaculum\"\" Review: Cold-Blooded Mary Ann Sleasman TV.com April 11, 2015Grimm S04E17: \"\"Hibernaculum\"\"View photos\"\"Hibernaculum\"\" was the latest Grimm -isode to raise uncomfortable questions about how to handle Wesen crime in the human world, as three dead Wesen were presented as an unfortunate-but-acceptable outcome in the wake of two murders that were cold-blooded only in the literal sense. It was an awkward episode and yet another example of the show's ongoing recent struggle with not-entirely-well-crafted Wesen. Grimm has worked tirelessly to humanize its \"\"monsters,\"\" and when it's done well, it's done extremely well. But then there are episodes like \"\"Hibernaculum,\"\" in which Wesen are forced into desperate situations and then punished for acting on that desperation while the show treats their deaths with a weird sort of callousness. This week, Grimm acted as though the Gunderson clan didn't have lives—jobs, friends, families, hobbies—outside of their crummy biology. Was it because they aren't as cuddly and relatively low-maintenance as a mammal-based Wesen like Mon Rosalee? View photos One of the themes that consistently appears in Grimm 's Wesen stories is the difficult balancing of existence in both the Wesen world and the human world. It's one of the reasons the show's universe has expanded to become increasingly complex and interesting, complete with monsters who are often more human than the humans themselves. However, it seems that lately, Grimm has focused much more heavily on unusual Wesen and dealt them some pretty terrible outcomes. The premise of \"\"Hibernaculum\"\" actually made a great deal of sense: A cold-blooded lizard Wesen who must hibernate in an subterranean orgy-basement to survive the winter is going to have a much harder time functioning in the human world than, say, the likes of Rosalee, who can pretty much turn her \"\"otherness\"\" on and off at will."

Since Nick lost his powers, he's tussled back-and-forth with his desire to live a somewhat normal life or become a Grimm once again. However, now he seems more determined than ever to regain his powers. In a sneak peek video from the upcoming episode, entitled \"\"Highway of Tears,\"\" Juliette agrees to transform into Adalind and sleep with Nick in order for him to get his powers back. After Juliette gives her consent for him to become a Grimm, Nick asks her is she is sure about her decision. \"\" I'm only going to ask you this once: Do you mean what you just said about me being a Grimm?\"\" Nick asks, in the video published on Zap2it. \"\" Is that what you want?\"\" Juliette asks in reply. Nick then pauses and responds with an affirmative: \"\"Yes. \"\"\"\""

Grimm - Twists and Turns Await in Grimm's Final Season (First Look)Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available. Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.0:00 / 2:36Last May’s finale left us off with some interesting developments: Renard was named mayor, Nick came back form the dead (thanks, magic stick! ), Black Claw leader Bonaparte was killed by Renard (who was being controlled by Diana), and Eve was saved with the magic stick (and she may be Juliette again). So let’s hop right into “Fugitive,” shall we?“Maybe this world is another planet’s hell. ”As is customary in the world of Grimm, we picked up right where we left off–Nick is miraculously alive, thanks to the magic stick in his pocket, and Renard, under his daughter’s spell, kills Bonaparte. Nick and Renard, now enemies, stare at each other for a moment, Renard wondering how Nick is alive and Nick wondering why Renard killed Bonaparte. Instead of a standoff between the two men, Renard leaves in a daze. Meanwhile, the rest of the Scooby gang, unaware that Nick is alive, looks for a way out of the tunnels. Monroe finds out, but Nick quickly joins them, but not before Trubel almost beheads him accidentally."

Design by itself will always be an incomplete answer to evolution. Evolution is wrong, but what do we replace it with? Many of us automatically think ‘design, of course!’ And they are partially correct. Design is certainly important, but it’s not the whole story. Design has to do with the origin of various structures in biology, as well as the origin of life itself. Naturalism can’t explain such features, and design is the only alternative. But there are more questions. What happened after life was first made?"

Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: A lion has a loose belly skin to allow it to be kicked by prey with little chance of injury. It's not because they are out of shape but it's an adaptation for their protection. The thick mane of a male lion will help male look bigger and protects the throat. Eyes in front of the lion allow for depth perception and ability to judge distances when stalking or ambushing prey. A lion has heavily muscled forelimbs and shoulders which add strength for capturing large prey. The lion's forepaws equipped with long, retractile claws helps the lion to grab and hold prey. Lion's rough tongue designed to peel skin of prey animal away from flesh, and flesh from bone.

"text": "Understanding MTConnect Agents and Adapters MTConnect agents and their corresponding device adapters are simply small computer programs that work together so that MTConnect can make shop equipment and networks more readily connectible. In a nutshell, adapters enable existing shopfloor devices “to speak MTConnect,” and agents enable MTConnect messages and data files to be transmitted across a network to MTConnect-compatible applications. Article Post: 12/21/2011Mark Albert Editorial Director, Modern Machine Shop The adapter and agent work together in an MTConnect implementation to enable data exchange between a device and a software application across a network. Tech Solve’s Ron Pieper uses these flowcharts to explain the role of adapters. Data from devices in different proprietary formats are depicted as dissimilar colors (blue or green). Adapters enable machines of various colors to communicate effectively by converting a specific input color into a specific output color (red) so that an agent (running on a server or PC) can collect the data and deliver it to an application. Without the adapters, the agent would receive different-color data that would be impossible to process. A connection unit can capture useful data from a device that does not have the built-in processor intelligence to provide it. The one shown here, from Real Time Development Corp., uses a sensor that clips onto the device’s incoming electric line and collects on/off cycle status, power consumption levels, production information (OEE), downtime and other data. This data, in the MTConnect format, is transmitted to a software solution via an Ethernet cable."

"text": "\"Beyond Nature vs. Nurture Researchers studying differences in how individuals respond to stress are finding that genes are malleable and environments can be deterministic. By Darlene Francis and Daniela Kaufer | October 1, 2011VINTAGE, AUGUST 2011A journalist once asked the behavioral psychologist Donald Hebb whether a person’s genes or environment mattered most to the development of personality. Hebb replied that the question was akin to asking which feature of a rectangle—length or width—made the most important contribution to its area. The “nature vs. nurture” conundrum was reinvigorated when genes were identified as the units of heredity, containing information that directs and influences development. When the human genome was sequenced in 2001, the hope was that all such questions would be answered. In the intervening decade, it has become apparent that there are many more questions than before. We’ve reached a point where most people are savvy enough to know that the correct response isn’t “nature” or “nurture,” but some combination of the two. Yet scientists and laymen alike still spend too much time and effort trying to quantify the relative importance of nature and nurture. Recent advances in neuroscience make a compelling case for finally abandoning the nature vs. nurture debate to focus on understanding the mechanisms through which genes and environments are perpetually entwined throughout an individual’s lifetime. As neurobiologists who study stress, we believe that research in this area will help reframe the study of human nature."

I found myself repeating this stuff often, and it would help to have this all in one place. As a lot of the existing information focuses on Macs and I am a PC person (and many questions on the subreddit are PC-based in nature), this is written from the PC perspective. I wrote this as a guide to someone looking into e GPU for the first time, so the questions escalate from basic knowledge to how actually to get it working. You can skip sections that of no interest to you to get to the juicier stuff deeper down. If you are just starting out, however, I highly recommend you read everything. Feel free to ask questions!Additional information: Aside of this guide and our subreddit, you should really take a look at the egpu.io webpage and forums. And especially the searchable implementations table where you can see if someone has already gotten an e GPU to work with your laptop/system. What is an e GPU?

"text": "The term snail is a common name applied to any gastropod mollusk who can retract into his shell. Thousands of species of snails live on land, in freshwater streams and ponds, and in saltwater bodies. They inhabit a range of regions including arid deserts and frigid sea depths. Shell Adaptations Snails' shells protect them from predators and the elements, and different snails have different adaptations, depending upon the regions they inhabit. Cone snails, for example, have evolved to sport large, cone-shaped shells that help them burrow into ocean sand. Additionally, the shape of the shell makes it difficult for crabs -- cone snails' natural enemies -- to grasp their slanted lengths. Other adaptations are shell patterns that serve as camouflage and shell thickness that preserves moisture. Breathing Apparatus Freshwater and marine snails have evolved gills, while terrestrial snails sport fully formed lungs. Golden apple snails have adapted by possessing both a lung and gills. They can absorb oxygen straight from the water or siphon air through a tube on the left side of the body."

"text": "Posted on Jul 21, 2014What Does Adaptability Really Mean In Business? All organizations must navigate through a sea of uncertainties and unexpected issues. A common assumption is that effective planning is the best way to cope through turbulent times. But even the best-laid plans can be useless when the landscape changes suddenly or too quickly. This leads to the common saying: “ adapt or die ”. Organizations that have built adaptability into their DNA are often better at responding to unfamiliar territory. They understand its benefits and experience long-term sustainability. So what exactly does it means to be adaptive? Some call it being agile. But it is more than moving quickly."

"text": "\"Evolutionary Epistemology Evolutionary Epistemology (EE) is a naturalistic approach to epistemology and so is part of philosophy of science. Other naturalistic approaches include sociological, historical and anthropological explanations of knowledge. What makes EE specific is that it subscribes to the idea that cognition is to be understood primarily as a product of biological evolution. What does this mean exactly? Biological evolution is regarded as the precondition of the variety of cognitive, cultural, and social behavior that an organism, group or species can portray. In other words, biological evolution precedes (socio-)cultural (co-)evolution. Conversely, (socio-)cultural (co-)evolution originates as a result of biological evolution. Therefore: EE studies the origin, evolution and current mechanisms of all cognitive capacities of all biological organisms from within biological (evolutionary) theory. Here cognition is broadly conceived, ranging from the echolocation of bats, to human-specific symbolic thinking;Besides studying the cognitive capacities themselves, EE investigates the ways in which biological evolutionary models can be used to study the products of these cognitive capacities. The cognitive products studied include, for example, the typical spatiotemporal perception of objects of all mammals, or more human-specific cognitive products such as science, culture and language."

From 2011/2012, MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link) became the de-facto method for outputting content from many mobile devices to a second screen. We have covered the topic in depth a few times in our What is MHL? and Which MHL cable should I buy? posts. As with all new technology, MHL quickly evolved since its conception; there’s even an upgraded version coming soon called Super MHL. Whilst some manufacturers like Sony and HTC are currently still compatible with the earliest specification in 2014, Samsung have adapted and with each generation of devices the compatibility has changed. Many Samsung Galaxy phones can use MHL adapters, the post below will explain which can and which adapters to use. Finally, throughout 2015, Samsung stopped support for MHL, so the Galaxy S6 range and Note 5 do not have the feature."

Physiologically, it helps in regulating urine output according to the amount of fluid in the body, so when one is thirsty, more ADH is produced to produce less urine (preserve body water). Pathologically, decreased ADH will lead to loss of body water by excessive urine production.alsawi y · 8 years ago0 0 Comment ADH effects how much urine you have by controlling how much water is in your urine. Very high ADH will result in a small amount of very concentrated urine (when you pee yellow). Very low amounts of ADH will result in a lot of very dilute urine (when you pee clear). Everything else (how much urea/chemicals/etc) in your urine will be the same.

ADHThe permeability of the distal tubule and collecting duct is controlled by ADHADH is produced in the hypothalamus and is stored and released from the pituitary gland. ADH increases the permeability of the distal tubule and collecting duct, so more water is reabsorbed This causes the urine becomes more concentrated Response to decrease in body water Decrease body water = increase blood solutes = increase blood’s osmotic pressure. Osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus cells detect changes in the osmotic pressure in capillaries Water from the hypothalamic cells moves into the bloodstream (osmosis), causing these cells to shrink. A nerve message is sent to the pituitary to release ADH. ADH travels in the blood to the kidneys. Kidneys reabsorb more water, producing a more concentrated urine. Shrinking of the hypothalamic cells also initiates a sensation of thirst. As water is consumed…Decrease blood’s osmotic pressure. Blood becomes more dilute, water moves from the blood into the hypothalamus."

This imbalance leads to intense thirst even after drinking fluids (polydipsia), and excretion of large amounts of urine (polyuria). While the names diabetes insipidus and diabetes mellitus sound similar, they're not related. Diabetes mellitus — which can occur as type 1 or type 2 — is the more common form of diabetes. There's no cure for diabetes insipidus, but treatments are available to relieve your thirst and normalize your urine output. Symptoms The most common signs and symptoms of diabetes insipidus are: Extreme thirst Excretion of an excessive amount of diluted urine Depending on the severity of the condition, urine output can be as much as 16 quarts (about 15 liters) a day if you're drinking a lot of fluids. Normally, a healthy adult will urinate an average of less than 3 quarts (about 3 liters) a day. Other signs may include needing to get up at night to urinate (nocturia) and bed-wetting. Infants and young children who have diabetes insipidus may have the following signs and symptoms: Unexplained fussiness or inconsolable crying Trouble sleeping Fever Vomiting Diarrhea Delayed growth Weight loss When to see a doctor See your doctor immediately if you notice the two most common signs of diabetes insipidus: excessive urination and extreme thirst. Causes Diabetes insipidus occurs when your body can't regulate how it handles fluids."

"text": "Urinary Incontinence in Children Parents or guardians of children who experience bedwetting at night or accidents during the day should treat this problem with understanding and patience. This loss of urinary control is called urinary incontinence or just incontinence. Although it affects many young people, it usually disappears naturally over time, which suggests that incontinence, for some people, may be a normal part of growing up. Incontinence at the normal age of toilet training may cause great distress. Daytime or nighttime incontinence can be embarrassing. It is important to understand that many children experience occasional incontinence and that treatment is available for most children who have difficulty controlling their bladders. How does the urinary system work? Urination, or voiding, is a complex activity. The bladder is a balloon-like organ that lies in the lowest part of the abdomen. The bladder stores urine, then releases it through the urethra, the canal that carries urine to the outside of the body."

"text": "Difference between Diabetes Mellitus and Diabetes Insipidus Diabetes Mellitus It is characterized by hyperglycemia (high blood sugar level), glycosuria (glucose in urine), polyuria ( increased volume of urine due to the osmotic effect of glucose), polydipsia (excessivie thirst), polyphagia (excessive appetite). It is due to the hyposecretion of insulin or lack of insulin. It is of two types:- Diabetes Type I and Diabetes Type II. Diabetes Type I ( Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus, IDDM): It is cased due to deficient insulin production by pancreas because either beta cells of islets of Langerhans are not able to produce insulin or beta cells are absent. Diabetes Type II (Insulin Independent or Non insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus, NIDDM): It is an inherited recessive autosomal disorder appearing after the age of 40 years in which the cells fail to take up insulin from blood. It results in deficient passage of glucose form blood into the cell surfaces for storage or for direct consumption. It may occur due to defective insulin receptors over cell surfaces or abnormality on plasma protein amylin. The phenomenon is called insulin resistance. This type of diabetes mellitus accounts for 80-90% of all cases of diabetes. It is kept under control by administration of insulin in case of insulin dependent diabetes."

"text": "Endocrine Disorders Save Print Share Actions Diabetes Insipidus Authored by Dr Colin Tidy, 18 Dec 2015This article is for Medical Professionals In this article Epidemiology Causes of diabetes insipidus Presentation Differential diagnosis Investigations Management Complications Prognosis Prevention Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a condition caused by hyposecretion of, or insensitivity to the effects of, antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as arginine vasopressin (AVP). ADH is synthesised in the hypothalamus and transported as neurosecretory vesicles to the posterior pituitary. There it is released into the circulation, governed by plasma osmolality. Its deficiency or failure to act causes an inability to concentrate urine in the distal renal tubules, leading to the passage of copious volumes of dilute urine. Usually the person with this condition passes >3 litres/24 hours of low osmolality (<300 m Osmol/kg) urine. There are two major forms of DI: Cranial DI: decreased secretion of ADH. Decreased secretion of ADH reduces the ability to concentrate urine and so causes polyuria and polydipsia. Nephrogenic DI: decreased ability to concentrate urine because of resistance to ADH in the kidney. There are two other forms of DI (both caused by deficiencies in ADH; however, the deficiencies do not result from a defect in the neurohypophysis or kidneys): Gestational DI: results from degradation of vasopressin by a placental vasopressinase. Gestational DI may be associated with increased complications of pregnancy, including pre-eclampsia. ["

It can also increase the risk of diabetes, which can lead to kidney failure. Indulging too freely and extensively can increase the risk of albuminiria (too much protein in the urine). The cells in the muscles may release electrolytes, which then triggers osmosis (taking water from the cells and putting it into the blood stream) to correct the electrolyte imbalance.

At some point ,change in blood level activates the osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus which in turn activates the release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH). ADH is released into the blood stream, then it travels to the kidney's collecting ducts whilst in the kidney, ADH increase the number of water channels in the membrane of the collecting duct cells ADH binds to the cell membrane receptors to activate phosphorylase enzyme. This causes the vesicle containing aquaporins to fuse with the membrane. Therefore water is reabsorbed from the filtrated to produce concentrated urine which passes into the tubules, collects in the renal pelvis and flows through the ureters into the urinary bladder. The reabsorbed water increases the water potential of the blood, osmoreceptors are no longer activated and so ADH production stops.

"text": "Diabetes Insipidus What is diabetes insipidus? Diabetes insipidus is a condition that results from insufficient production of the antidiuretic hormone (ADH), a hormone that helps the kidneys and body conserve the correct amount of water. Normally, the antidiuretic hormone controls the kidneys' output of urine. It is secreted by the hypothalamus (a small gland located at the base of the brain) and stored in the pituitary gland and then released into the bloodstream. ADH is secreted to decrease the amount of urine output so that dehydration does not occur. Diabetes insipidus, however, causes excessive production of very diluted urine and excessive thirst. The disease is categorized into groups. Two of the groups are described below:central diabetes insipidus — insufficient production or secretion of ADH; can be a result of damage to the pituitary gland caused by head injuries, genetic disorders, tumors, surgery, and other diseases.nephrogenic diabetes insipidus — lack of kidney response to normal levels of ADH: can be caused by drugs or chronic disorders, such as kidney failure, sickle cell disease, or polycystic kidney disease. Causes of diabetes insipidus: Diabetes insipidus can be caused by several conditions, including the following:malfunctioning hypothalamusdamage to hypothalamus or pituitary gland during surgerybrain injurytumortuberculosisblockage in the arteries leading to the brainencephalitismeningitissarcoidosis (a rare inflammation of the lymph nodes and other tissues throughout the body)What are the symptoms of diabetes insipidus?

"text": "Print Overview Diabetes insipidus (die-uh-BEE-teze in-SIP-uh-dus) is an uncommon disorder that causes an imbalance of water in the body. This imbalance leads to intense thirst even after drinking fluids (polydipsia), and excretion of large amounts of urine (polyuria). While the names diabetes insipidus and diabetes mellitus sound similar, they're not related. Diabetes mellitus — which can occur as type 1 or type 2 — is the more common form of diabetes. There's no cure for diabetes insipidus, but treatments are available to relieve your thirst and normalize your urine output. Symptoms The most common signs and symptoms of diabetes insipidus are: Extreme thirst Excretion of an excessive amount of diluted urine Depending on the severity of the condition, urine output can be as much as 16 quarts (about 15 liters) a day if you're drinking a lot of fluids. Normally, a healthy adult will urinate an average of less than 3 quarts (about 3 liters) a day. Other signs may include needing to get up at night to urinate (nocturia) and bed-wetting. Infants and young children who have diabetes insipidus may have the following signs and symptoms: Unexplained fussiness or inconsolable crying Trouble sleeping Fever Vomiting Diarrhea Delayed growth Weight loss When to see a doctor See your doctor immediately if you notice the two most common signs of diabetes insipidus: excessive urination and extreme thirst. Request an Appointment at Mayo Clinic Causes Pituitary gland and hypothalamus Female urinary system Diabetes insipidus occurs when your body can't regulate how it handles fluids."

"text": "\"Urine output and residual kidney function in kidney failure Author: Anthony Bleyer, MD, MS Section Editor: Jeffrey S Berns, MD Deputy Editor: Alice M Sheridan, MDINTRODUCTIONMany patients starting dialysis have significant residual kidney function, with 45 percent having an estimated glomerular filtration rate (e GFR) ≥10 m L/min/1 .73 m 2 [ 1 ]. Preservation of this residual kidney function has been associated with improved outcomes, and nephrologists should try to preserve this residual kidney function as long as possible. Even when the GFR is very low, the urine output is variable, ranging from oliguria to normal or even above normal levels. These findings are related to the fact that the urine output is determined not by the GFR alone, but also by the difference between the GFR and the rate of tubular reabsorption. If, for example, a patient with advanced acute or chronic kidney failure has a GFR of 5 L/day (versus the normal of 140 to 180 L/day), the daily urine output will still be 1.5 L if only 3.5 L of the filtrate is reabsorbed. It had been thought that tubular damage impaired the ability to reabsorb sodium and water, thereby contributing to the maintenance of an adequate urine output in this setting. However, it seems more likely that volume expansion (due to initial sodium retention) and a urea osmotic diuresis (as the daily urea load is excreted by fewer functioning nephrons), due in part to solute intake, play a more important role in the persistent urine output [ 2-4 ]. In comparison, water intake (which usually determines the urine output via changes in the secretion of antidiuretic hormone [ADH]) plays relatively little role in regulating the urine output in advanced kidney disease. These patients can neither dilute nor concentrate the urine normally; the range of urine osmolality that can be achieved in the typical patient with advanced chronic kidney disease varies from a minimum of 200 mosmol/kg to a maximum of 300 mosmol/kg compared with 50 to 1200 mosmol/kg in normal subjects [ 4,5 ]. The net effect of this ADH resistance is that variations in ADH release in response to changes in water intake have relatively little effect on the urine output [ 5 ]."

What is ADH? At first glance, you may be thinking that ADH probably stands for some type of a disorder like ADHD or ADD. While the letters are similar, ADH is not a disorder. ADH stands for antidiuretic hormone, which is also known as vasopressin, and it looks like this: ADH is produced in the hypothalamus and stored in the pituitary gland. It's released from there into the bloodstream, and it affects how the kidneys work by letting them know how much water they need to keep in or get out of the body."

"text": "Polyuria (Excessive Urine, High Urine Output)Posted by Dr. Chris Tweet Polyuria is the term for an excessive urine output marked by a high urine volume and frequent urination. An output of 3 litres (approximately 100 fluid ounces) or more of urine per day is considered as polyuria. Since the bladder can only store about 300 to 500ml of urine, the need to urinate frequently may be a common feature of polyuria. However, frequent urination without an inappropriately high urine output in a 24 hour period may not be polyuria. How does polyuria occur? Polyuria may be due to one of two processes : The concentration of solutes within the urine is abnormally high and this draws more fluid from the blood via osmosis. The concentration of solutes within the plasma is abnormally low and more water has to be passed out with urine. Damage to the the kidney’s filtration structures (glomerulus) could also result in polyuria as the kidneys are not able to draw out excess water in the urine. Causes of Polyuria Polyuria is often induced by drinking excessive amounts of water and other fluids or consuming diuretics like tea, coffee, cola, or alcohol. Psychogenic polydipsia (primary) is the the perception of extreme thirst with the excessive intake of fluids and this leads to polyuria."

Re: Difference between adieu and au revoir Apr 8, 2005, 12:51 PMBonjour Riesi,Adieu is used when you are leaving someone for a long long time and if you are unsure when you might see her or him again. Au revoir is used when you leave someone that you might probably see again and soon. Just like the Southern U. S. of A. have it speacial ways with words, so does the south of France, in Provence Adieu is sometimes used for Bonjour and Au revoir. But you should used Au revoir in store and restaurants in the rest of France."

"text": "\")\"\"Lucy\"\" is a fossil that Donald Johanson discovered in 1973. Its scientific name, Australopithecus afarensis, derives from the Afar region of Ethiopia, where it was discovered. For years, Lucy was portrayed as the missing link in the human evolution sequence. However, it no longer enjoys that earlier esteem in evolutionist sources, thanks to the latest scientific findings. The fact Australopithecus can no longer be regarded as the ancestor of human beings was the cover story for the May 1999 edition of the well-known French scientific journal Science et Vie. Under the heading \"\"Adieu Lucy [Goodbye to Lucy],\"\" the text described why, based on a new Australopithecus finding known as St W573, Australopithecus apes needed to be removed from the human family tree: A new theory states that the genus Australopithecusis not the root of the human race. . . The results arrived at by the only woman authorized to examine St W573 are different from the normal theories regarding mankind's ancestors: this destroys the hominid family tree. Large primates, considered the ancestors of man, have been removed from the equation of this family tree . . . Australopithecusand Homo (human) species do not appear on the same branch. Man's direct ancestors are still waiting to be discovered.23\"\"ADIEU, LUCY\"\"Scientific findings have shown that evolutionist hypotheses regarding \"\"Lucy,\"\" the best-known specimen of the class Australopithecus, are quite groundless."

[ 1] A group known as the \"\"Viacom Mafia\"\"—a group that includes Viacom’s former CEOs, Philippe Dauman and Frank Biondi, and current CEO, Thomas E. Dooley —became involved in the founding of the channel. This group invested and rounded up additional investors, Bain Capital Ventures, J. P. Morgan Partners, Battery Ventures, Columbia Capital, Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi, who as a group invested about $100 million. These founders felt with other single sports channel like the Golf Channel succeeding with a mostly male demographic and tennis having viewer of both sexes and of a desirable high-end demographic that a tennis channel would draw in advertisers.

It means the first kiss on a first date in the 7 th inning of a blowout. It means butterflies in the batter’s box of a tight game.

She said, my dear don’t leave me all for another season, Though fortune does be pleasing I ‘ll go along with you, I’ll forsake friends and relations and bid this Irish nation, And to the bonny Bann banks forever I’ll bid adieu. He said, my dear don’t grieve or yet annoy my patience, You know I love you dearly the more I’m going away, I’m going to a foreign nation to purchase a plantation, To comfort us hereafter all in Amerika y. Then after a short while a fortune does be pleasing, T’will cause them for smile at our late going away, We’ll be happy as Queen Victoria, all in her greatest glory, We’ll be drinking wine and porter all in Amerika y. If you were in your bed lying and thinking on dying, The sight of the lovely Bann banks, your sorrow you’d give o’er, Or if were down one hour, down in yon shady bower, Pleasure would surround you, you’d think on death no more.

[ Illustration: Eliza Wharton] THE COQUETTE; OR, THE HISTORY OF ELIZA WHARTON. A NOVEL: FOUNDED ON FACT. BY A LADY OF MASSACHUSETTS. HISTORICAL PREFACE, INCLUDING A MEMOIR OF THE AUTHOR. He who waits beside the folded gates of mystery, over which forever float the impurpled vapors of the PAST, should stand with girded loins, and white, unshodden feet. So he who attempts to lift the veil that separates the REAL from the IDEAL, or to remove the heavy curtain that for a century may have concealed from view the actual personages of a well-drawn popular fiction, or what may have been received as such, should bring to his task a tender heart and a delicate and gentle hand. Thus, in preparing an introductory chapter for these pages which are to follow, many and various thoughts suggest themselves, and it is necessary to recognize and pursue them with gentleness and caution. The romance of \"\"Eliza Wharton\"\" appeared in print not many years subsequent to the assumed transactions it so faithfully attempts to record. Written as it was by one highly educated for the times,--the popular wife of a popular clergyman, connected in no distant degree, by marriage, with the family of the heroine, and one who by the very profession and position of her husband was, as by necessity, brought into the sphere of actual intercourse with the principal characters of the novel, and as the book also took precedence in time of all American romances, when, too, the literature of the day was any thing but \"\"_light_\"\"--it is not surprising that it thus took precedence in interest as well of all American novels, at least throughout New England, and was found, in every cottage within its borders, beside the family Bible, and though pitifully, yet almost as carefully treasured."

How can I get a light coating? Should I buy that spray-on salad dressing? I never advocate buying prepared salad dressings - but I always enjoy listing their ingredients. Here, for the record, in descending order, is what's in Wish-Bone Salad Spritzers Italian Vinaigrette Dressing: high-fructose corn syrup, white-wine vinegar, soybean oil, salt, onion juice, xanthan gum, caramel color, natural flavors and annatto extract. Compare this to the ingredients for homemade vinaigrette: extra-virgin olive oil, good wine vinegar or lemon juice, salt. The makers of Salad Spritzers are no doubt responding to the sad fact that it is virtually impossible to properly dress an individual portion of salad by pouring dressing onto it. In fact, a sprayer does a better job. But there's no reason why you can't put your own dressing into one of those cheap plastic spray bottles (aka plant misters) widely available at drugstores, supermarkets or hardware stores."

"text": "The Best Energy & Appetite Suppressantsby AMANDA GRONOT July 18, 2017What to Look For According to American Academy of Family Physicians, the ingredients you should look for in energy boosters are Ephedra, Bitter Orange, Guarana, Country Mallow, Yerba Mate or Caffeine. Appetite suppressants should include Glucomannan, Psyllium, Hoodia or Guar Gum. The FDA only approves prescription energy boosters and appetite suppressants, not over-the-counter medications, with the exception of Alli. Weight loss supplements can have severe side effects, so look for medications that have tested clinical results and choose a drug that best fits your medical history. Common Pitfalls Energy boosters and appetite suppressants can have serious, potentially fatal side effects that can outweigh their benefits. Do not trust any claims that sound too good to be true, and do not take pills that do not provide ingredients or possible side effects. It is best to consult your doctor if you want to purchase these medications. The Weight-control Information Network warns that you may develop dependence or tolerance, and it strongly advises that weight loss pills should always be used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise. Studies cited in the British Medical Journal demonstrate that only certain energy boosters and appetite suppressants are effective, and that these produce only modest results. Where to Buy Appetite suppressants and energy boosters can be purchased at your local pharmacy or online."

"text": "List of Prescription Diet Drugsby TYFFANI BENARD July 18, 2017Diet products have been in existence for many years as an adjunct to weight loss. Prescription diet pills are currently regulated by the Food and Drug Administration, which provides a measure of safety for users. According to Consumer Search.com, prescription weight-loss drugs are approved for use in the obese having a body mass index of 30 or higher. While these drugs may be helpful to those who are unable to achieve weight loss through diet and exercise alone, there are dangers that must be considered in the use of prescription diet pills. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Phentermine Drugs.com states that phentermine, sold under the brand name Adipex, is a stimulant that behaves similarly to amphetamines. It encourages weight loss by suppressing the appetite. Physicians may prescribe phentermine as a supplement to a healthy diet and exercise regimen to encourage weight loss in the obese, especially those suffering from potentially life-threatening health problems such as hypertension, diabetes or high cholesterol. Phentermine should not be taken with any other diet drugs or monoamine oxidase inhibitors since this can result in dangerous side effects. Drugs.com indicates that phentermine affects the nervous system, possibly inhibiting thinking and reaction times. Sibutramine Sibutramine hydrochloride monohydrate, sold by the brand name Meridia, is approved for use for weight loss in those with a body mass index above 30 in otherwise healthy individuals and above 27 when patients have other risk factors."

Obesity is the leading cause of preventable death and contributes to health problems such as diabetes and heart disease. Certain hormones are a contributing factor to obesity, and estrogen appears to help determine your body fat distribution. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Estrogen Explained Estrogen is a sex hormone commonly associated with women -- though men also produce estrogen -- and is essential for reproductive and sexual development. Women produce estrogen in their ovaries, while men manufacture estrogen in the testes. Adrenal glands and fat cells also produce estrogen. The placenta of a pregnant woman makes estrogen. Estrogen levels typically decline as you age, especially for postmenopausal women. Fat Distribution Where you carry your body fat is an important factor in some health conditions. Decreasing levels of estrogen cause you to retain more weight around the abdomen, according to State Government of Victoria Australia's Better Health Channel."

"text": "\"Elvin Keeling, I read a lot of papers. Answered Mar 26, 2016 · Author has 201 answers and 571.8k answer views Short answer: No, Adderall is not \"\"useful\"\" for weight loss, and it is irresponsible and dangerous to use it for weight loss. However, Adderall does cause weight loss in many people. Also, there are other weight loss drugs, see below. Analogy: Adderall and starvation are similar, they are both not \"\"useful\"\" for weight loss. Cutting off your leg is also not \"\"useful\"\" for weight loss, although it works far more quickly than any diet. Adderall has a terrible risk-benefit ratio for weight loss, although it will cause most people to lose weight. So you do lose weight, but the drug itself harms you more than the weight loss benefits you. ( Adderall has a very good risk-benefit ratio for ADHD, because the dose is lower and it can be so helpful in school or at work. ) The best reason to lose weight is to be healthy."

"text": "\"Side Effects of Weight Loss Drugs (Diet Pills)Medically reviewed on Oct 21, 2016 by L. Anderson, Pharm D. Side effects with weight loss drugs can vary depending upon the type of drug you take and how the drug works. Stimulants-type drugs like phentermine can lead to insomnia, increased blood pressure, fast heart rate, restlessness, drug dependence and abuse, and withdrawal symptoms. Drugs that interfere with fat absorption, such as orlistat (Alli), can lead to oily spotting, gas, and soft stools. Diet pills that affect neurotransmitters in the brain, such as Belviq (lorcaserin) or Contrave (bupropion and naltrexone) can be linked with headache, nausea and vomiting, constipation, dry mouth, and dizziness. Many stimulant-type weight loss medications like phentermine or diethylpropion are only recommended for short-term use (up to 12 weeks) due to risk of dependence and other side effects. However, orlistat (Alli, Xenical) can be used for longer-term weight loss, including the maintenance of previously lost weight. You can get Alli at the drugstore without a prescription. Newer prescription weight loss drugs such as Qsymia (phentermine and topiramate), Belviq (lorcaserin), Contrave (bupropion and naltrexone), and Saxenda (liraglutide) are indicated for chronic, long-term use, but only if adequate weight loss (as outlined in the package labeling) occurs. If a 3 to 4 percent weight loss has not been achieved after 12 to 16 weeks, long-term treatment is typically stopped. Weight loss medications are used alongside a low calorie diet and a doctor-approved exercise plan for best results."

"text": "Committee of Adjustment Committee of Adjustment Mandate The Committee of Adjustment is a quasi-judicial tribunal appointed by City Council and is independent and autonomous from the City Administration. It derives its jurisdiction from the Planning Act of Ontario and its mandate is to: Consider and make decisions on applications for Minor Variances from the provisions of a Zoning By-law Consider and make decisions on applications for Consent to “sever” a property, or for any agreement, mortgage or lease that extends for more than 21 years Consider and make decisions on applications for Permission, which deal with the enlargement or extension of a building or structure that is legally non-conforming, or a change in non-conforming use Consider and make decisions on applications for Validation of Title and Power of Sale The Committee of Adjustment and its application processes are separate and distinct from other municipal development approval processes, and one or more of these processes may occur at the same time. Structure of the Committee The Committee consists of fifteen members, who are divided into three panels of five members each, and each panel hears applications for a different geographic area of the city. There are two panels for urban areas of the city and one panel for rural areas, and their geographic areas are as follows: Panel 1Rideau-Vanier (including the former City of Vanier), Rideau-Rockcliffe (excluding the former Village of Rockcliffe Park), Somerset, Kitchissippi and Capital (North of Rideau River) wards Panel 2Orléans, Innes, Barrhaven, Kanata North, Bay, College, Knoxdale-Merivale, Gloucester-Southgate, Beacon Hill-Cyrville, Rideau-Rockcliffe (former Village of Rockcliffe Park only), River, Capital (South of Rideau River), Alta Vista, Cumberland (partial), Gloucester-South Nepean and Kanata South wards Panel 3West Carleton-March, Stittsville, Cumberland (partial), Osgoode and Rideau-Goulbourn wards The Role of the Committee Staff The Committee of Adjustment has a centralized administration office where staff process applications in accordance with the rules and regulations set out in the governing provincial legislation. Staff is available to discuss with the general public, community representatives, applicants, and authorized agents only matters related to application submission requirements or details of applications being processed. It is not the role or responsibility of staff to assess the merits of an application as this is the role and responsibility of the Committee. Minor Variance The Committee of Adjustment is authorized to consider Applications for Minor Variances from a Zoning By-law under Section 45 of the Planning Act. Minor Variances are often necessitated by circumstances peculiar to a property which prevent the owner from developing it in a way which conforms to a Zoning By-law. Examples of Minor Variance Applications include requests for relief from the building setback, building height, and parking provisions of a Zoning By-law. The Committee is authorized to grant a minor variance if all of the following criteria, commonly referred to as the “four tests,” are met: The variance is minor;The variance is desirable for the appropriate development or use of the property;The general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law is maintained;The general intent and purpose of the Official Plan is maintained."

This Topic Page concerns Laws - or, more specifically, how a bill becomes a law. The general process is described in the Constitution in Article 1, Section 7. This page is a concise overview of the entire process and though it does go into some detail, there are many it leaves out. For an exhaustive read of the full legislative process, see How Our Laws Are Made, a publication of the Library of Congress. The general process for making a bill into a law is described in the Constitution. As with many things, however, the Constitution leaves most of the details to the people of the day, dictating just the overall picture. Before we delve into those details, however, a look at the general process is useful. First, a bill must pass both houses of Congress by a majority vote. After it has passed out of Congress, it is sent along to the President."

"text": "Landlord and tenant Categories: Landlord & tenant The purpose of this Law Online guide is to provide the reader with a comprehensive look at the different aspects of landlord and tenant law. The guide highlights the various situations where a relationship of landlord and tenant exists and the rights and obligations arising from such a relationship. In addition it also discusses the issue of disputes and how the different types of tenancies may be terminated including, for example, on account of rent arrears. HOW TO SET UP A TENANCYBefore setting up the tenancy agreement, it is important to remember that there are different types of tenancy arrangements for letting your property to a tenant. There are two broad categories (though other forms of tenancies exists which are not so common) as follows: Tenancy for a fixed term: This is a tenancy created for any fixed term length of time. Tenancy from year-to-year or other periodic tenancy: The duration of a periodic tenancy is not specified. A periodic tenancy can be a tenancy from year-to-year or a tenancy for successive periods, such as a monthly or weekly tenancy. In these types of tenancies, each period is automatically renewed and the tenancy will continue indefinitely after the initial period has ended, until the tenancy is eventually terminated. For example, a tenancy under which rent is paid weekly is deemed to be a weekly tenancy, and if paid monthly it would be considered a monthly tenancy etc.. Irrespective, however, of whether or not the tenancy is fixed or periodic all tenancies become, what is called, a Part 4 tenancy once the tenant is in occupation for more than six months. ‘ Part Four’ refers to the relevant section of the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 and is concerned with security of tenure for the tenant and the circumstances under which a tenancy can be terminated."

"text": "TDLR Administration Criminal History Evaluation Letter Download a determination of eligibility request form Download a criminal history questionnaire Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)Every individual who applies for a license with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (“the Department”) is subject to a criminal background check to determine his or her suitability for the license. In 2009, the Texas Legislature enacted new provisions to allow a person to find out before applying whether he or she would likely be denied a license due to his or her criminal history. This was due to the time and expense involved in applying for a license, which in some cases includes completing required education and taking an examination. See Section 51.4012 and Chapter 53, Subchapter D, of the Occupations Code, which allow a person to request a criminal history evaluation letter from the Department, prior to actually applying for a license. The Department has issued Criminal Conviction Guidelines for each occupation the Department licenses. These guidelines list the crimes which are considered to relate to each occupation, as well as other factors that affect the decisions of the Department. When a request for a criminal history evaluation letter is filed, the Department will review the requestor’s criminal history with reference to these guidelines, the same as if an actual license application had been filed. View the Criminal Conviction Guidelines To request a criminal history evaluation letter, an individual must:submit a request form,complete a criminal history questionnaire for each crime for which he or she was convicted or placed on deferred adjudication, andpay a fee ($25.00). When a complete request is received, the Department will review the requestor’s criminal convictions, deferred adjudications, and any other aspect of his or her criminal history that may have bearing on a license application. This review may include looking at court records, reviewing police records, interviewing the requestor, and interviewing any other person with knowledge of the requestor’s criminal background, such as a parole officer, probation officer, police officer, or counselor."

"text": "\"Feminist Jurisprudence American feminist jurisprudence is the study of the construction and workings of the law from perspectives which foreground the implications of the law for women and women's lives. This study includes law as a theoretical enterprise as well its practical and concrete effects in women's lives. Further, it includes law as an academic discipline, and thus incorporates concerns regarding pedagogy and the influence of teachers. On all these levels, feminist scholars, lawyers, and activists raise questions about the meaning and the impact of law on women's lives. Feminist jurisprudence seeks to analyze and redress more traditional legal theory and practice. It focuses on the ways in which law has been structured (sometimes unwittingly) that deny the experiences and needs of women. Feminist jurisprudence claims that patriarchy (the system of interconnected relations and institutions that oppress women) infuses the legal system and all its workings, and that this is an unacceptable state of affairs. Consequently, feminist jurisprudence is not politically neutral, but a normative approach, as expressed by philosopher Patricia Smith: \"\" [F]eminist jurisprudence challenges basic legal categories and concepts rather than analyzing them as given. Feminist jurisprudence asks what is implied in traditional categories, distinctions, or concepts and rejects them if they imply the subordination of women. In this sense, feminist jurisprudence is normative and claims that traditional jurisprudence and law are implicitly normative as well\"\" (Smith 1993, p. 10)."

"text": "\"Veteran Jobs Psychological Conditions and Security Clearances Department Of Defense Mental health is a security concern because it influences how a person perceives the world, makes decisions, and manages stress. The fact that an individual has had, or continues to have, an emotional, mental, or psychological condition does not, by itself, preclude granting access to classified information. The issue is whether the individual's condition causes, or may cause, poor judgment or unreliable, untrustworthy, or dysfunctional behavior. Many people, perhaps most people, experience some form of stress that threatens their self-image at some time in their lives. They experience failure to compete effectively with their peers; perceive injustice at the hands of a supervisor or employing organization; are terminated from a job under circumstances that prompt resentment; feel rejected or betrayed by a spouse; confront serious financial or medical problems; or are tempted by a seemingly easy opportunity for illegal monetary gain. Emotionally stable and well-adjusted individuals generally respond to these experiences in positive ways: by learning from them, adjusting their expectations, working harder, or sticking with their core values. Individuals who are unstable or poorly adjusted, have a significant character weakness, or suffer from mental illness may react in ways that are self-destructive, counterproductive, or illegal. They may harm the organization by actions that run the gamut from absenteeism to self-serving decisions, theft, fraud, sabotage, or espionage. Potentially Disqualifying Conditions Extract from the Guideline (a) behavior that casts doubt on an individual's judgment, reliability, or trustworthiness that is not covered under any other guideline, including but not limited to emotionally unstable, irresponsible, dysfunctional, violent, paranoid, or bizarre behavior; (b) an opinion by a duly qualified mental health professional that the individual has a condition not covered under any other guideline that may impair judgment, reliability, or trustworthiness; (c) the individual has failed to follow treatment advice related to a diagnosed emotional, mental, or personality condition, e.g., failure to take prescribed medication. The potentially disqualifying conditions are quite general."

The term is used particularly in bankruptcy proceedings, in which the order declaring a debtor bankrupt is called an adjudication. The giving or pronouncing a judgment in a cause. To readjudicate means to retry an issue in court. Adjudication within the construction industry has taken off with many disputes now being resolved using the Adjudication process as set out in the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 as well as the rules contained in many of the standard forms of contract, sub-contract and consultant agreements. Adjudication is a statutory procedure by which any party to a construction contract has a right to have a dispute decided by an adjudicator. It is intended to be quicker and more cost effective than litigation or arbitration. It is normally used to ensure payment (although most types of dispute can be adjudicated). The Adjudicator must generally decide the dispute in less than 42 days. The decision is binding and is usually upheld by the Courts."

The Offense (Crime)When you are the victim or witness of a crime, you should immediately call 9-1-1 or the law enforcement agency (Police or Sheriff) which has the responsibility for the area where the crime occurred. The best thing you can do is call the law enforcement agency immediately; the longer you wait, the harder it will be to catch the criminal. Initial Investigation In most cases an initial investigation of a crime is conducted by a patrol officer who travels to the crime scene or the location of the victim, shortly after the crime is reported. Naturally, the officer will assist those who need medical attention. The patrol officer will interview the victim (s) and any witness (es) and will begin an initial report listing the circumstances of the crime."

Claim adjudication is a relatively broad term used by different types of insurance providers including automobile, homeowner, workers' compensation and medical insurance carriers. Insurance Claim Process Injury to you or damage to your property triggers the adjudication process if you have insurance to cover the event. The first step involves notifying the insurance company of your claim. Once received, the company assigns the claim to a representative for evaluation. He will likely ask you to provide proof in the form of property estimates and medical bills. The claim usually remains open until you supply all the necessary proof."

"text": "\"Expanding the Scope of the Automatic Stay to Co-Defendant March 2003A basic tenet of federal bankruptcy law is that the automatic stay suspends creditor collection efforts and litigation against a debtor that files for bankruptcy protection, but does not apply to actions directed toward non-debtor third-parties. Still, there are exceptions to the rule. Under the right circumstances, the scope of the stay may be expanded to prevent actions against a non-debtor. One such circumstance -- namely, where the debtor and a company that is wholly-owned by him are co-defendants in litigation -- was the subject of a decision recently handed down by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. In Queenie, Ltd. v. Gygaard Int’l, the Second Circuit held that the automatic stay applied to preclude continued litigation against the debtor’s wholly-owned corporation because adjudication of a claim against the corporation would have an \"\"immediate adverse economic impact\"\" on the debtor. The Automatic Stay When a petition for relief under the Bankruptcy Code (other than an ancillary petition in furtherance of a qualified foreign insolvency proceeding) is filed by or against a debtor, a statutory injunction -- or \"\"automatic stay\"\" -- immediately becomes effective to suspend creditor collection efforts and litigation against the debtor and property of its bankruptcy estate. Bankruptcy Code section 362 (a) stays, among other things, \"\"the commencement or continuation, including the issuance or employment of process, of a judicial, administrative, or other action or proceeding against the debtor that was or could have been commenced before the commencement of the case . . . or to recover a claim against the debtor that arose before the commencement of the case.\"\" The \"\"automatic stay\"\" also precludes the enforcement of a pre-bankruptcy judgment against the debtor or its property, \"\"any act to obtain possession\"\" of estate property, to exercise control over estate property and a wide variety of creditor enforcement actions, including perfecting a lien on the debtor's property and \"\"any act to collect, assess or recover a claim against the debtor that arose before the commencement of the case. \"\" The automatic stay is broad in scope and applies to almost every formal and informal action against the debtor or its property."

Adjudication is a legal process that aims to expedite the delivery of resolutions or punishments to squabbling parties. The result of the adjudication process is a legally-binding judgment; the stipulations and demands of the judgment are legally upheld by a local or federal governing body. The adjudicated meaning simply refers to the formal legal process by which a judge or arbiter reviews evidence (including legal reasoning offered by litigants or opposing parties) to come to a decision in a legal matter. Typically the cases heard in adjudication setting revolve around disputes over money or non-violent infractions. Regardless of the legal matter at hand, all decisions rendered in the adjudication process will ultimately determine the distribution of rights and obligations for the parties involved. Adjudication is distinct from other justice-seeking or evidence-based resolution formats; in particular, the process is only used to solve the following types of disputes: Disputes between private parties, such as individual citizens or corporations (who possess a legal personality) Disputes that arise between public officials and private parties Disputes between public bodies and public officials Who is involved in the Adjudication Process?

In Texas, you can be arrested for Assault Bodily Injury if there is probable cause to believe you intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly caused bodily injury to another person. Probable cause exists when an investigation results in facts that would lead a reasonably intelligent and prudent person to believe you have committed a crime. This is a very low standard of proof and is a far cry from the proof the state must provide once your case is filed: beyond a reasonable doubt. Upon arrest, you will appear before a magistrate who will set your bond amount. Depending upon the bond amount, you may choose to pay a cash bond, obtain a bondsman to front a majority of the cost for you, or stay in jail. The most important you thing you can do upon arrest is to contact an experienced attorney immediately. All the alleged victim has to say for you to go to jail. What is bodily injury?

These can include the death of a loved one, relationship issues, or being fired from work. While everyone encounters stress, some people have trouble handling certain stressors. The inability to adjust to the stressful event can cause one or more severe psychological symptoms and sometimes even physical symptoms. There are six types of adjustment disorders. Each type is associated with distinct symptoms and signs. Adjustment disorders can affect both adults and children. Adjustment disorders are treated with therapy, medication, or a combination of both. With help, you can usually recover from an adjustment disorder quickly. The disorder typically doesn’t last more than six months, unless the stressor persists."

Posted By: Nootriment | 0 3.64 1Intro Armodafinil vs Modafinil What Armodafinil Does Medical Dosing Nootropic Benefits Side Effects Alternatives Review Armodafinil is the newest and most improved version of the wakefulness promoting drug, Modafinil. Its chemical composition makes it a “purer” or “refined” version of the drug and thus, it requires less of it in order to be effective. Armodafinil is marketed as producing the same effects as Modafinil but with a more clarified formula, which may prove to reduce the frequency of some of the more common side effects users sometimes experience. It is important to note that purer does not mean the effects you experience are necessarily stronger, but instead, that you need less of the drug to achieve the desired effects. What is the suggested Armodafinil dosage and what is the maximum safe amount you can use?

"text": "What The New DSM-V Says About Postpartum Depression & Psychosisby Katherine Stone | 12 comments The new Diagnostic Statistical Manual — the DSM-V — has officially been released by the American Psychiatric Association. So what does it say about postpartum depression? Not what I thought it would. In the DSM-IV, to diagnose Major Depressive Disorder with Postpartum Onset, symptoms needed to appear in the first 4-6 weeks. As you know, many moms don’t recognize postpartum depression symptoms until much later in the first year. It’s my belief that this has led to moms going to see their docs and being told they couldn’t have PPD because it was too late. My understanding was that in the new DSM-V, that would change. To make the qualification for Major Depressive Disorder with Postpartum Onset, symptoms could appear any time in the first four months. Others have said the discussion leading up to revisions of the DSM also revolved around extending it to as far as six months. Yet yesterday I got a copy of the new pages (pg."

Mood stabilizers are medicines used in the treatment of bipolar disorder, where a person’s mood changes from a depressed feeling to a high “manic” feeling, or vice versa. These drugs can help reduce mood swings and prevent manic and depressive episodes. Mood stabilizers can take up to several weeks to reach their full effect. Because of this, other psychiatric medications such as antipsychotics are often used in the early stages of treatment. Antipsychotics and antidepressants may also be used in combination with mood stabilizers as longer-term treatments for bipolar disorder. Medication is generally considered to be the cornerstone of treatment for bipolar disorder; however, combining medication with other therapy and support can help you to get and stay well. Forms of talk therapy that have been shown to help with bipolar disorder are interpersonal and social rhythm therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy and family-focused education about bipolar disorder.

Results indicate that hearing disorders are reversible… the therapy of choice is chiropractic manipulation of the upper cervical spine.” M. Hülse, Professor of ENT, Heidelberg University. This paper by Hülse cannot be underestimated for its importance to chiropractic. Early in my research I came across it but I only had the abstract. I purchased the paper, which was in German. It’s taken me some time to receive the translation into English and following is my summation of the paper. When you put the results of this study and a multitude of others together with the Harvey Lillard adjustment of 1895 (see Green Books this newsletter), you will soon come to appreciate that despite some medical opinions to the contrary, dysfunction of the upper cervical spine may well be one cause of an abundance of hearing disorders like tinnitus, vertigo, otalgia (ear pain), fullness, deafness, otitis media and Meniere’s disease. To dismiss the link just because it is difficult to find an anatomical link is poor investigative research. The evidence is there in one form or another."

I'm new here. I've been suffering from strange problems for the last two months now, mostly affecting my balance when walking. I have not been officially diagnosed with Spinal Cord injury, but I'm thinking it is most likely the cause of my symptoms. Over the last two months I've had several chiropractic adjustments to my neck, back, lumbar, pelvis. Any one of these things could have started or exacerbated my issues because this is when I started experiencing my imbalance, gait disturbances, blurry vision, pressure headaches, neck pain, and muscle spasms. After going to the ER, and many neurologists and orthopedists, I was referred to Physical Therapy for stabilization exercises, as the doctors couldn't see anything wrong from a MRI angiogram of my head & neck or x-rays of my entire spine, but thought maybe there was some soft tissue damage. It's been 3 weeks of PT and no change, in fact it may be making matters worse. Most of the visual symptoms I was having at first had cleared up in the first 3 weeks of my 'illness' but after a lot of heavy handling of the neck by my Physical Therapist, my vision got blurry again, and my neck pain/pressure & headaches got worse."

Antidepressants increased the risk compared to placebo of suicidal thinking and behavior (suicidality) in children, adolescents, and young adults in short-term studies of major depressive disorder (MDD) and other psychiatric disorders. Anyone considering the use of such drugs in a child, adolescent, or young adult must balance this risk with the clinical need. Short-term studies did not show an increase in the risk of suicidality with antidepressants compared to placebo in adults beyond age 24; there was a reduction in risk with antidepressants compared to placebo in adults aged 65 and older. Depression and certain other psychiatric disorders are themselves associated with increases in the risk of suicide.

It has a number of new features designed to take full advantage of the newer 64-bit browsers and operating systems available for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS. This makes it a more effective tool for Web developers and anyone who enjoys media-rich applications or sites like You Tube. However, with the improvement come a few headaches that users of certain browsers may encounter. If you use Google Chrome, there is no need to download Adobe Flash Player 11, as it comes as part of the download package. For those using other browsers, you may be prompted to update depending on your settings. This isn't a program that will be prominent for most users -- it works primarily in the background."

Yahoo Tech July 15, 2015View photos (Adobe)This story is being featured as part of our “Yahoo Best of 2015” series. It was originally published on July 15, 2015. Google and Mozilla each announced this week that their Web browsers will be dropping default support for Adobe Flash, citing the plug-in software’s newly discovered vulnerabilities to cyberattacks. These moves came only a few days after Facebook’s chief of security called for Adobe to set an “end of life” date for the oft-exploited 20-year-old platform. Even if you don’t exactly know what Adobe Flash is, this is important news. Whether you know it or not, odds are pretty high that Adobe Flash is on your computer right now, possibly putting your system and your personal information at risk. Don’t panic. Take a deep breath and read our Adobe Flash security threat guide. We’ll help you figure out why it might be best to banish Flash from your life, just like Google, Mozilla, and Facebook want you to do."

"text": "How To Install Flash Player on a Samsung Galaxy S5 to Stream Web-Based Flash Videos By Dallas Thomas 06/23/2014 9:44 am Over the course of the past few years, many websites have begun offering up a mobile-friendly HTML 5 version of their content. Videos that once required Adobe's Flash can now be played on any modern mobile web browser. Yet a stubborn set of sites hold steadfast onto the past, as with Amazon's Instant Video service, rendering their content inaccessible on a stock Samsung Galaxy S5. But with the help of Mozilla's Firefox browser and a side-loaded Flash installer, you can still access this content from your GS5. And if you're familiar with the average Flash-based streaming website, you know that ads and popups can mask a video to the point where it's very difficult to access. On a touchscreen device, this effect is even worse. But a popular Firefox add-on will help neutralize these ads, making Flash streams actually watchable. Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available.

However if you click on the “Update Now” button, rather than downloading an update for Flash Player, you will be installing a malicious program on your PC. This “Adobe Flash Player Update” pop-up ad is usually caused by adware installed on your computer. These adware programs are bundled with other free software that you download off of the Internet. Unfortunately, some free downloads do not adequately disclose that other software will also be installed and you may find that you have installed adware without your knowledge. Once this malicious program is installed, whenever you will browse the Internet, your web browser will be redirect to sites that display a “Adobe Flash Player Update” message. This bogus alert is shown in such a way as to trick the user into thinking that they need to install an update, with the sole purpose of making them download the malicious program. These “Adobe Flash Player Update” are aimed to promote the installation of additional questionable content including web browser toolbars, optimization utilities and other products, all so the adware publisher can generate pay-per-click revenue.

Of course, there’s still a great deal of content on the web that utilizes Flash. If you want to have access to this legacy content on your mobile device, there are several work arounds that will bring back the Adobe Flash experience. While there are a number of ways to get the job done, the easiest and most reliable is to use Dolphin Browser. Not only is Dolphin Browser a great web browser, it also requires a lot less steps to get Flash up and running. For those that are thinking, “Can’t I just install Flash manually and keeping using Chrome?” – unfortunately the answer is no. Chrome doesn’t support flash, even if you were to install the Flash APK on your device. That means you have to use a 3rd party browser. Dolphin Browser: Installing & Setup The first step to getting Flash working is to head over to Google Play and download Dolphin Browser."

"text": "Personal Tech | Q&AUse Caution in Updating Adobe Flash Player or Reader By J. D. BIERSDORFER NOV. 28, 2014Q. Is it safe to update my Adobe Flash Player software from pop-up alerts? A. Online criminals have used the old fraudulent Flash Player/Adobe Reader pop-up alert for years to fool unsuspecting Windows and Mac users into installing Trojan horses and other malicious software on their systems, so it is good to be cautious. As hackers have frequently exploited Adobe’s Flash Player and Reader programs, you want to keep the software up to date with the freshest editions. Adobe does have its own update utility that regularly checks for new versions of the Flash Player and informs you when new software is ready. If you do not remember installing Adobe Updater — or do not see it in the computer’s list or folder of applications — be very suspicious of any alerts about Flash Player updates. You should also be extremely wary of software update alerts that pop up soon after you connect to a public wireless network, including those in hotels and coffee shops. Alerts or installer windows that suddenly disappear from the screen as soon as you quit a browser program often have malicious intent. Adobe’s site has a page at http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ that you can use to see if your computer’s currently installed version of the Flash Player is the most recent one. If it is not, you can easily grab the newest update directly from the source."

Photograph: Dominic Lipinski/PAI use the Firefox web browser with Adblock, and I run AVG anti-virus. Frequently, but not always, when I click on a link in a Google search result, it takes me to a page advertising something instead of going to the page indicated. If I go back to the search results and click the same link, it usually goes to the correct site. I thought this might be malware, but I have scanned with AVG and Malwarebytes, including anti-rootkit, and there is no indication of anything wrong. Researching the problem, I came across concerns that the Chrome browser could have this behaviour, and the suggestion was to disable extensions. I’m not very happy to do this because my various Firefox extensions add functionality I value.

The Your computer has been locked virus is distributed through several means. Malicious websites, or legitimate websites that have been hacked, can infect your machine through exploit kits that use vulnerabilities on your computer to install this trojan without your permission of knowledge. Another method used to propagate this type of malware is spam email containing infected attachments or links to malicious websites. Cyber-criminals spam out an email, with forged header information, tricking you into believing that it is from a shipping company like DHL or Fed Ex. The email tells you that they tried to deliver a package to you, but failed for some reason. Sometimes the emails claim to be notifications of a shipment you have made. Either way, you can’t resist being curious as to what the email is referring to – and open the attached file (or click on a link embedded inside the email). And with that, your computer is infected with the Your computer has been locked virus. The threat may also be downloaded manually by tricking the user into thinking they are installing a useful piece of software, for instance a bogus update for Adobe Flash Player or another piece of software."

"text": "\"In this article we’re going to take a look at the fake flash player update virus, understand a little more about what it is, find out how you know if you’ve been infected with it – and more importantly – how to protect yourself from it and remove it if necessary. If you keep receiving ads for fake Adobe Flash Player upgrades then your computer is infected with adware. You may find that other users say it's a virus and I wouldn't say they are completely wrong even though technically it's adware. Adware is a compound word; the result of joining the words adverts or advertisements and software. The explanation of ‘adware’ is that it is any type of software that, once installed on your computer (often without your permission or even your knowledge) it tracks your internet user habits – i.e. it monitors which sorts of websites you visit on a regular basis – and then it sends you pop-up windows containing advertisements related to the sites and topics you've visited. Or as in this case, it simply displays unwanted Flash Player update warning pop-ups claiming that for instance that 'A Flash Player Update is recommended to view this content' or 'Please install flash player hd to continue'. Scammers have made many different ads but usually the fake update looks similar to the following: Clearly, this is NOT an actual update. We’ve all seen those annoying pop up 'Please Update Flash Player' – they seemingly appear from nowhere and as far as you know you haven’t clicked on anything agreeing to be targeted in an ad campaign but whilst adware may sound like it is innocent (albeit it rather annoying!) it can actually give you real cause for concern. At its least dangerous adware will gobble up your computer’s operating speeds, slowing down both your PC’s processor and your internet connection."

One of the notable features about this OS release from Microsoft is that it contains integrated anti-malware protection known as Windows Defender. There is confusion concerning the name “ Windows Defender”, as that product name has had multiple implementations. Windows Defender, as discussed in this document, APPLIES ONLY TO WINDOWS 8. This document is specifically for Windows 8 64-bit, and Windows Defender as integrated into Windows 8 . This document assumes the use of Internet Explorer and Windows Firewall .

It dupes you into agreeing to its installation without you even realizing it. And after successful infection, the issues start to pile up. Binkiland.com is a browser hijacker, so the first thing it does, is replace your default search engine and homepage. But it doesn’t stop there. It can, in fact, make all sorts of changes to your system without your knowledge or permission. Just try to imagine how infuriating that can be.

The Google Redirect Virus is really a category of rootkits that is absolutely one of the most difficult pieces of malware to remove. It hides from almost all antivirus, antispyware, and removal tools and does not allow the user to visit many antispyware sites or download removal tools. It redirects Google search results to a variety of sites other than the true site is was supposed to show. Normally you won't understand you have a virus until you try to search for something in Google and you can't get to the sites you want. Instead you get popups, miscellaneous sites promoting products, and everything else except for the page you really wanted. In my particular case, Malwarebytes and Combofix, two well known and very good malware cleaning tools showed no infection at all. However the redirect was still present on the computer. How Do I Know I Have a Google Redirect Virus on My System? Try to search Google for something and click on the various search results that show up, if none of the results allow you to go to the appropriate site, you are infected."

The fact of the matter is that you don't need to pay for Windows security.

"text": "ADR is an abbreviation for additional dialogue recorded. Not every location where a film is shot is sound friendly. For example, a scene shot under a highway overpass is going to always be noisey no matter what microphones you use or which sound guy you hire. While this sound might be acceptable for an editor to use for cutting the movie, it won't work with the audience. So we need to have the actor come to the post production house and rerecord some of their lines. Don't Rely on ADR as a Crutch ADR is an expensive and tedious process. You should make every possible effort to avoid having to resort to it. Hire a great sound guy with great equipment. They mean the difference in regards to the quality of the audio. Also try to make every possible effort to clean the sound up in an audio editing program."

"text": "\"Sync tanks The Art and Technique of Postproduction Soundby Elisabeth Weis ( Cineaste, 1995)The credits for John Ford's My Darling Clementine (1946) include Wyatt Earp as technical consultant [1] but only one person responsible for all of postproduction sound (the composer). The credits for Lawrence Kasdan's Wyatt Earp (1994) list the names of thirty-nine people who worked on postproduction sound. The difference is not simply a matter of expanding egos or credits.\"\" An older film like Casablanca has an empty soundtrack compared with what we do today. Tracks are fuller and more of a selling point ,\"\" says Michael Kirchberger (What's Eating Gilbert Grape?, Sleepless in Seattle). \"\" Of course a good track without good characters and storyline won't be heard by anyone. \"\" [ 2]With soundtracks much more dense than in the past, the present generation of moviemakers has seen an exponential growth in the number of people who work on the sound after the film has been shot. What do all those people add both technically and esthetically? \"\" When I started out, there was one sound editor and an assistant, \"\" says picture editor Evan Lottman (The Exorcist, Sophie's Choice, Presumed Innocent). \"\""

"text": "\"ADRADR stand for \"\" Automated \"\" or \"\" Automatic \"\" Dialog Replacement. Dialog that cannot be salvaged from production tracks must bere-recorded in a process called looping or ADR . Looping originally involved recording an actor who spoke lines insync to \"\"loops\"\" of the image which were played over and over alongwith matching lengths of recording tape. ADR, though faster, is stillpainstaking work. An actor watches the image repeatedly while listening to the original production track on headphones as a guide. The actor then re-performs each line to match the wording and lip movements. Actors vary in their ability to achieve sync and to recapture the emotional tone of their performance. Marion Brando likes to loop because he doesn't like tofreeze a performance until he knows its final context. ( People have said that one reason he mumbles is to make the production soundunusable so that he can make adjustments in looping. ) ADR is usually considered a necessary evil but there are moments when looping can be used not just for technical reasons but to add new character or interpretation to a shot."

( December 2011) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)A prologue or prolog (from Greek πρόλογος prologos, from πρό pro, \"\"before\"\" and λόγος logos, \"\"word\"\") is an opening to a story that establishes the context and gives background details, often some earlier story that ties into the main one, and other miscellaneous information. The Ancient Greek prólogos included the modern meaning of prologue, but was of wider significance, more like the meaning of preface. The importance, therefore, of the prologue in Greek drama was very great; it sometimes almost took the place of a romance, to which, or to an episode in which, the play itself succeeded."

"text": "\"Symbolism of Water Meaning and Symbolism of Water I've been asked about the symbolism of water outside of the Christian/Biblical realm. Fascinating subject and I'm grateful for the question. My response is as follows: The symbolism of water has a universal undertone of purity and fertility. Symbolically, it is often viewed as the source of life itself as we see evidence in countless creation myths in which life emerges from primordial waters. Interestingly, we are all made of water, and so we can liken many of these myths and allegories to our own existence (the macrocosm mirroring the microcosm and vice versa). Further, we can incorporate symbolism of circulation, life, cohesion and birth by associating the creative waters of the earth with the fluids found in our own body (i.e., blood). In Taoist tradition, water is considered an aspect of wisdom. The concept here is that water takes on the form in which it is held and moves in the path of least resistance. Here the symbolic meaning of water speaks of a higher wisdom we may all aspire to mimic. Share Water Garden Meanings Water Animal Totems The ever-observant ancient Greeks understood the power of transition water holds."

"text": "Rat Animal Totem Symbolism & Meanings Mercato Leave a comment Facebook Twitter Google + Pinterest Rat Animal Totem Symbolism The rat as an animal totem has a dubious reputation in most cultures. In Christianity the rat has been identified as a herald of evil, no doubt due to its association with the plague. In Egypt it is occasionally revered as a deity, and is associated with destructive behavior and activities. Outside of mythology, it is often seen as a symbol of filth and disease. Conversely the Chinese see the rat as a symbol of industry, and in fact is one of the animals on the Chinese Zodiac, as those familiar with that tradition can attest. In the Hindu faith the rat seems to ride the fence, capable of housing a powerful demon, or being a humble transport of the elephant god Ganesha. Even the Romans saw the rat as symbolism of prosperity and good luck. Rat Associated Traits Survivor, resourceful, adaptability, intelligence, conservativeness, smart, problem solving Symbolic Meaning Of Rat But the rat is also known to be a creature of great intelligence, being used to understand the human mind through its adaptability to problem solving puzzles. It is able to survive in some of the least habitable environments on earth, and as heralds of wisdom. After all, we know that when the rats are abandoning ship, it’s time to follow suit!It is its own special wisdom that Rat brings us."

How? Amazoni Books Independent Booksellers Experimental fiction in North America began with a genius of a doyen in Paris: Gertrude Stein, whose aesthetic assertion that writers shape and form and reform the medium of language the way sculptors work with stone, painters work with light and shape and composers work with sound, changed Hemingway forever and, thus, changed the nature of the American short story — or the American art story, at least. So much for the Irish storywriter Frank O'Connor's waggish remark — leading from the strength of his strong realist tendencies — that experimental writing is \"\"what looks funny on the page.\"\" O'Connor meant us to think of \"\"funny\"\" as odd, curious and not very rewarding. But if you think of the founding father of the experimental novel, patriarch Jimmy Joyce, funny on the page in Ulysses often meant funny ha-ha, as well as dramatically comical, mood-transforming and thought-provoking. By both standards, one dismissive and the other adulatory, Sorry Please Thank You, Charles Yu's latest collection of short fiction, seems experimental and, at the same time — not always true of the experimental fiction in our time — wonderfully and often comically pleasing, even as it provokes and transforms. I don't know that there's a better story-bending talent at work than Yu since the rise of George Saunders. Yu, who? \"\" I am you."

See also: Physisorption, Chemisorption, and Segregation (Materials Science)Brunauer, Emmett and Teller's model of multilayer adsorption is a random distribution of molecules on the material surface. Adsorption is the adhesion of atoms, ions or molecules from a gas, liquid or dissolved solid to a surface. [ 1] This process creates a film of the adsorbate on the surface of the adsorbent. This process differs from absorption, in which a fluid (the absorbate) is dissolved by or permeates a liquid or solid (the absorbent ), respectively. [ 2] Adsorption is a surface-based process, while absorption involves the whole volume of the material. The term sorption encompasses both processes, while desorption is the reverse of it. Adsorption is a surface phenomenon.

Aug. 14, 2017Dextromethorphan Forms and Effects Dextromethorphan is a medication that is used to relieve coughing problems because of colds or influenza (see link in References). Dextromethorphan is not indicated for the treatment of coughs caused by asthma, smoking or emphysema. It works by suppressing the cough reflex by acting directly on the part of the nervous system that controls coughing. Dextromethorphan can be obtained in the form of lozenges, syrup and a suspension (a mixture of the medication in which it is not completely dissolved) which allows for more gradual and extended release of the drug. Adsorption Dextromethorphan begins to take effect as soon as it enters the blood stream, which is soon after it is absorbed by the digestive system, which generally occurs within 15 minutes after ingestion. Its adsorption and metabolism rates are listed on inchem.org for oral ingestion of the standard dextromethorphan syrup. It reaches its maximum level within the blood approximately 2 1/2 hours after ingestion. One of its metabolites (which means a compound that is made after dextomethorphan is broken down by the body), dextrorphan, reaches its peak levels approximately 2 hours after the medication is taken. Dextrorphan also has anti-cough effects."

García-Falcón E. Martínez-Carballo J. Simal-Gándara Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhazmat.2010.01.073 Get rights and content Abstract Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) can be formed during the refinery processes of crude petroleum. Their removal is of great importance. The same happens with other organic solvents used for the extraction of PAHs (hexane, acetonitrile…), which can be polluted with PAHs. Kinetic and equilibrium batch sorption tests were used to investigate the effect of wood ashes wastes as compared to activated carbon on the sorption of three representative PAHs from n -hexane and acetonitrile. Mussel shell ashes were discarded for batch sorption experiments because they were the only ashes containing PAHs. The equilibrium time was reached at 16 h. Physical sorption caused by the aromatic nature of the compounds was the main mechanism that governed the PAHs removal process. Our investigation revealed that wood ashes obtained at lower temperature (300 °C) did not show any PAHs sorption, while ashes obtained at higher temperature (>500 °C) have adsorbent sites readily available for the PAH molecules. An increase in the molecular weight of PAHs has a strong effect on sorption wood ashes wastes. As low the wood ashes particle size as high the sorption of PAHs, as a result of differences in adsorbent sites. The performance of wood ash wastes vs. activated carbon to remove 10 PAHs from organic solvents is competitive in price, and a good way for waste disposal."

How Activated Charcoal Works How Activated Charcoal Is Given When Not to Use Activated Charcoal Emergency Home Care for Suspected Poisoning What is activated charcoal? Readers Comments 2 Share Your Story It was 1831. In front of his distinguished colleagues at the French Academy of Medicine, Professor Touery drank a lethal dose of strychnine and lived to tell the tale. He had combined the deadly poison with activated charcoal. That's how powerful activated charcoal is as an emergency decontaminant in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, which includes the stomach and intestines. Activated charcoal is considered to be the most effective single agent available. It is used after a person swallows or absorbs almost any toxic drug or chemical. Activated charcoal is estimated to reduce absorption of poisonous substances nearly to 60%. It works by binding (adsorbing) chemicals, thus reducing their toxicity (poisonous nature), through the entire length of the stomach and small and large intestines (GI tract)."

Abstract Hydrogen is considered as the most promising future fuel, as its combustion generates only water vapor besides energy. However, finding efficient, safe and low cost storage methods is the basic impediment for the adoption of hydrogen as fuel. For this purpose, five biomass-based carbon samples have been successfully prepared through KOH activation procedure. The microstructure of the prepared materials was tuned by varying KOH/precursor weight ratio from 1:1 to 5:1, in order to optimize their hydrogen storage behavior and to clarify the storage mechanism. A careful textural and morphological characterization of the prepared samples (N 2 and CO 2 adsorption, X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy observations) showed that by increasing the activation ratio the nature of the carbons changes from microporous to micro-mesoporous. Thus, an increase in the surface area was observed which enhanced H 2 sorption capacity when high H 2 pressures were adopted. At subatmospheric pressure, the role of active sites for H 2 adsorption, located in the oriented graphene sheets, was clearly elaborated. Finally, the optimal carbon sample has shown a capacity of 6 wt% and 1.22 wt% at −196 °C and 25 °C respectively, and 200 bar. These results make biomass-based carbons promising materials for H 2 storage application."

Abstract Amine-based silica sorbents for CO 2 capture prepared by an impregnation method generally show high adsorption capacity, but physical and chemical degradation for long-term operation are critical problems such as leaching and evaporation of amines, and urea formation, respectively. A strategy to form crosslinks between the impregnated amines was introduced to prevent these problems. Crosslinkers with two amine-reactive groups such as epoxy and halide were used to prepare crosslinked polyethyleneimine (PEI)-impregnated sorbents. A viscosity increase was observed in all crosslinked PEIs. The structure and the amine ratio of the crosslinked PEIs were investigated by 13 C NMR analysis. The highest reaction selectivity to primary amines and the formation of hydroxyl groups were observed for 1,3-butadienediepoxide (BDDE). In addition, BDDE-crosslinked PEI-impregnated sorbents exhibited the most stable long-term stability with the highest CO 2 adsorption capacity and the smallest weight gain after regeneration by simulated temperature swing adsorption (TSA) operations; the hydroxyl groups produced from BDDE-crosslinked PEI enhanced the CO 2 utilization by acting as proton acceptors. The effect of the BDDE content was investigated. The advanced physical stability was observed by an increase in the viscosity at high temperatures or gelation with increasing amounts of BDDE."

Adsorption and absorption are important processes that occur in chemistry and biology. It is important to have an understanding of both processes and the differences between them when considering separation protocols, particularly in gas and liquid chromatography. The major difference between adsorption and absorption is that one is a surface process and the other a bulk process.

Thin layer chromatography is used to separate components of a plant extract, illustrating the experiment with plant pigments that gave chromatography its name Chromatography is a laboratory technique for the separation of a mixture. The mixture is dissolved in a fluid called the mobile phase, which carries it through a structure holding another material called the stationary phase. The various constituents of the mixture travel at different speeds, causing them to separate. The separation is based on differential partitioning between the mobile and stationary phases. Subtle differences in a compound's partition coefficient result in differential retention on the stationary phase and thus affect the separation. [ 1]Chromatography may be preparative or analytical. The purpose of preparative chromatography is to separate the components of a mixture for later use, and is thus a form of purification. Analytical chromatography is done normally with smaller amounts of material and is for establishing the presence or measuring the relative proportions of analytes in a mixture.

The dull term colloid that reminds us of glue is, nevertheless, the accepted word. It was coined in the early 19th century by the Father of Physical Chemistry, Thomas Graham (1805-1869), to distinguish those materials in aqueous solution that would not pass through a parchment membrane from those that would. Glue was indeed a material that would not, and the Greek for glue is kolla, from which we also get \"\"protocol\"\" and \"\"collagen.\"\" Those that would pass through were things like salt, and other soluble crystalline substances, which Graham called crystalloids. As we shall see, the field is much, much richer than this. Colloids received little attention until the end of the century, when van't Hoff, Oswald and Nernst founded modern physical chemistry and they, and others, became fascinated by colloid phenomena. There had been famous observations by Tyndall and others in the meantime, but chemists could not get excited over glue. Then, in the 1920's and 1930's, the importance of colloids to industrial processes and biochemistry changed everything. Colloids became a hot field, and soon every elementary textbook said something about them."

Learn About Activated Charcoal or Carbon Share Flipboard Email Print Picture Lake/E+/Getty Imagesby Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph. D. Updated February 03, 2018Activated charcoal (also known as activated carbon) consists of small, black beads or a solid black porous sponge. It is used in water filters, medicines that selectively remove toxins, and chemical purification processes. Activated charcoal is carbon that has been treated with oxygen. The treatment results in a highly porous charcoal. These tiny holes give the charcoal a surface area of 300-2,000 m 2 /g, allowing liquids or gases to pass through the charcoal and interact with the exposed carbon. The carbon adsorbs a wide range of impurities and contaminants, including chlorine, odors, and pigments. Other substances, like sodium, fluoride, and nitrates, are not as attracted to the carbon and are not filtered out. Because adsorption works by chemically binding the impurities to the carbon, the active sites in the charcoal eventually become filled."

Furthermore the extension and retraction of fibers is correlated with the dual sedimentation of T4 observed during ultracentrifugation. For T4, 38, which requires tryptophan for adsorption, electron microscopy shows the tail fibers to be extended in the presence of tryptophan and retracted in its absence. Phages with retracted fibers (no tryptophan) show a faster sedimentation than those with extended fibers (with tryptophan). In the absence of tryptophan T4, 38 does not show fiber extension even at p H 7, a condition sufficient for nontryptophan-requiring T4, whose fibers are retracted at p H 5. A conditional lethal mutation in gene 37 of phage T4D results in phages which lack tail fibers entirely. These phages no longer adsorb. In the ultracentrifuge, only the fast form can be observed whether at p H 7 or 5. Phages with extended fibers are more rapidly inactivated by ultrasonic waves than phages with retracted fibers. Measurements on electron micrographs show that the head size of T4 is invariant."

"text": "\"ADOS and ADSW Program for Army National Guard Soldiers Chuck Holmes August 5, 2012If you are currently serving in the Army National Guard or Army Reserves, you should consider the ADSW Program. This stands for Active Duty Special Work. In the past, it has also been referred to as ADOS, which is Active Duty Operational Support. In either case, this program is reserved for traditional, one weekend a month soldiers who want to serve on temporary Active Duty, normally within their unit. There are also assignments at the National Guard Bureau and other major commands. About The ADSW Program The ADSW Program is designed to fill staffing shortages on a temporary basis. In most cases, these are temporary jobs for temporary projects. From what I’ve seen, most soldiers serve on ADSW on a temporary basis (one year or less). However, I have met a few folks who were on ADSW Orders for more than 10+ years straight. It really depends upon the position, who you know, and your job performance."

"text": "\"United States Armed Forces Military The United States of America What is the most powerful branch of the United States military?44 Answers Richard Knight, [Insert something clever here...]Answered May 11, 2016 · Author has 351 answers and 397.7k answer views There's no doubt that the U. S. Air Force is the most powerful military force in the sky and that the U. S. Navy is the most powerful military force at sea, but wars are ultimately won or lost on land. Thus, this would suggest that the U. S. Army is inherently the \"\"most powerful\"\" branch of the U. S. military (and intentionally so) because the other branches are not able to win wars by themselves. Stated differently, the U. S. Army is inherently more capable of winning a war by itself than the U. S. Air Force by itself or the U. S. Navy by itself. As for the U. S. Marine Corps, they would be substantially comparable to the U. S. Army in this analysis but, being a much smaller force, would be less effective on that basis alone (and thus \"\"less powerful\"\"). Of course, this conclusion is entirely based on the label \"\"most powerful\"\" being a function of war-winning ability (or, for that matter, a theoretical head-to-head fight in the context of a traditional/conventional \"\"war\"\"). On the other hand, if we change that definition slightly to equate to, say, \"\"power projection\"\" or \"\"raw destructive power\"\" or \"\"taking a beachhead\"\" (without regard to war-winning ability), then the U. S. Navy or the U. S. Air Force or the U. S. Marines (respectively) would be better candidates for the label \"\"most powerful.\"\" Yet it is important to keep in mind that, ultimately, the fundamental purpose of the U. S. Air Force, the U. S. Navy, and the U. S. Marines (directly or indirectly) is to help win wars and, to this end, are essentially tasked to provide (among other things of course) air and sea power/support for the U. S. Army to more effectively fight on the ground for conquest and control of enemy territory. In other words, it would be fair to say that the U. S. Army's best weapons are the U. S. Air Force, the U. S. Navy, and the U. S. Marines, without whom the U. S. Army would suffer terribly in any war-type conflict (and even fail to win) but, again, the single-most fundamental and foundational war-winning branch of service is the U. S. Army. Please note that none of this analysis is intended to diminish in any way the importance of the U. S. Air Force, the U. S. Navy, or the U. S. Marines, all of whom are very necessary to the ultimate success of the U. S. Army (and the U. S. at large) when it comes to waging war. Nevertheless, the timeless truth that \"\"wars are won on the ground\"\" remains as valid today as ever."

( Photo Credit: Army)VIEW ORIGINAL2 / 2Show Caption +Soldiers administer the \"\"standing long jump\"\" portion of the Occupational Physical Assessment Test to potential recruits during an OPAT pilot program. ( Photo Credit: Army)VIEW ORIGINALWASHINGTON (Army News Service, June 1, 2016) -- The Army currently uses the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery, or ASVAB, as a predictor of a future Soldier's ability to meet the academic requirements needed to do well in a particular military occupational specialty. This summer, the Army will add the Occupational Physical Assessment Test, or OPAT, as a way to predict a recruit's physical fitness required to train for the high physical demand tasks for an MOS. The OPAT is currently being evaluated at a select number of recruiting stations around the Army. It involves four physical fitness tests that together measure a future Soldier's muscular strength, cardiorespiratory endurance, and lower body and upper body explosive power. The four tests include the standing long jump, the seated power throw, the strength deadlift and the interval aerobic run. The new test isn't the first time the Army has used some sort of physical assessment for future Soldiers. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the Army used the \"\"1-1-1 test,\"\" which involved 1-minute of sit-ups, 1-minute of pushups, and a 1-mile run to evaluate the physical fitness of candidates. The U. S. Military Academy at West Point, New York, currently does the Candidate Fitness Assessment, and the Reserve Officer Training Corps has in the past experimented with physical fitness performance as a requirement for entry into service."

As red blood cells passes through the capillary beds of the lungs, gills (in fish), or other respiratory organs, oxygen is diffused into the erythrocytes and hemoglobin binds O 2 and NO. Hemoglobin then unloads its cargo in the capillaries. There O 2 is able to diffuse into the body cells. The NO relaxes the walls of the capillaries, allowing them to expand which in effects helps the delivery of O 2 to the cells. File: Haemoglobin structure.

Follow 15 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Haemoglobin is a protein and all proteins contain the elements Nitrogen, Hydrogen, Carbon and Oxygen only but Haemoglobin also contains Iron. =]Maureen · 1 decade ago0 1 Comment Hemoglobin (American English) or haemoglobin (British English) is the iron-containing oxygen-transport metalloprotein in the red blood cells of the blood in vertebrates and other animals. In mammals the protein makes up about 97% of the red cell’s dry content, and around 35% of the total content (including water). Hemoglobin transports oxygen from the lungs or gills to the rest of the body, such as to the muscles, where it releases the oxygen load. Hemoglobin also has a variety of other gas-transport and effect-modulation duties, which vary from species to species, and may be quite diverse in invertebrates. The name hemoglobin is the concatenation of heme and globin, reflecting the fact that each subunit of hemoglobin is a globular protein with an embedded heme (or haem) group; each heme group contains an iron atom, and this is responsible for the binding of oxygen. The most common type of hemoglobin in mammals contains four such subunits, each with one heme group.

Forget 1 and H. Franklin Bunn 2+ Author Affiliations1Section of Hematology, Department of Medicine, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut 06520-80282Hematology Division, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02115Correspondence: [email protected] Next Section Abstract Over the years, study of the disorders of hemoglobin has served as a paradigm for gaining insights into the cellular and molecular biology, as well as the pathophysiology, of inherited genetic disorders. To date, more than 1000 disorders of hemoglobin synthesis and/or structure have been identified and characterized. Study of these disorders has established the principle of how a mutant genotype can alter the function of the encoded protein, which in turn can lead to a distinct clinical phenotype. Genotype/phenotype correlations have provided important understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms of disease. Before presenting a brief overview of these disorders, we provide a summary of the structure and function of hemoglobin, along with the mechanism of assembly of its subunits, as background for the rationale and basis of the different categories of disorders in the classification. An impressive degree of molecular “engineering” was necessary for the evolution of a multisubunit protein that higher organisms require for optimal oxygen homeostasis and buffering of acidic metabolic waste products. Each globin subunit must form a stable linkage with heme (ferroprotoporphyrin IX) situated on the external surface of the protein so that oxygen in the RBC cytosol can bind reversibly to the hemes’ iron atoms. Moreover, the hydrophobic cleft into which the heme is inserted must be able to protect the Fe 2+ heme iron from oxidation to Fe 3+, which is incapable of binding oxygen. 3 Delicate noncovalent interactions between unlike globin subunits are required for the hemoglobin tetramer α 2 β 2 to bind and unload oxygen in a cooperative manner, thereby assuring maximal transport to actively metabolizing cells. This phenomenon is reflected by a sigmoid oxygen-binding curve that depends on hemoglobin tetramer having two quaternary structures: the T or deoxy conformer that has low oxygen affinity and the R or oxy conformer that has high oxygen affinity."

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."

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Medicine What is the normal range of haemoglobin in blood of human adult (male&female), children, infant?1 following 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Hi there! Hemoglobin is the usual name, also spelled Haemoglobin as an alternative name, and abbreviated as Hb. The Hb level is expressed as the amount of Hb in grams (gm) per deciliter (d L) of whole blood, where 1 deciliter is 100 milliliters. The normal ranges for hemoglobin depend on the age and, sex of the person, and other factors like the start of adolescence. Generally, the normal ranges are: Newborns: 14-22 gm/d L - More specific: One week of age: 15-20 gm/d L One month of age: 11-15 gm/d L Children: 11-13 gm/d L - More specific: Children 6 months to 6 years: 9.5-14 gm/d L Children 6 to 18 years: 10 to 15.5 gm/d L Adult males: 14-18 gm/d L Adult women: 12-16 gm/d L Men after middle age: 12.4-14.9 gm/d L Women after middle age: 11.7-13.8 gm/d L Pregnant women: 11 to 12 gm/d L All of these values may vary slightly among laboratories. Some laboratories do not differentiate between adult and \"\"after middle age\"\" hemoglobin values. They only use the adult standard.

Are there are any risks associated with the CBC test? Summary References Introduction Your blood consists three main types of blood cells: White blood cells (WBC), that help your body to fight infections, platelets, that help in the clotting process when you suffer a cut, or injury, red blood cells (RBC), that help carry oxygen from your lungs, with the help of a protein called hemoglobin, to all the cells and organs of your body. Many different medical conditions affect these three cell types in different ways. What does the complete blood count (CBC) measure? The CBC is one of the most common blood tests that assesses your overall health. It specifically helps in detecting disorders such as anemia (insufficient RBC), infection (increased WBC) and leukemia (blood cancer), and bleeding disorders (low or poorly functioning platelets). Table:1 Within Range CBC Results for Adults RBC cell count Male: 4.7 to 6.1 million cells/mc LFemale: 4.2 to 5.4 million cells/mc LWBC cell count4,500 to 10,000 cells/mc LPlatelet count150,000 to 450,000 platelets/mc LHemoglobin Male: 13.8 to 17.2 gm/d LFemale: 12.1 to 15.1 gm/d LHematocrit Male: 40.7% to 50.3 %Female: 36.1% to 44.3%As the name suggests the CBC \"\"counts\"\" the number of blood cells in your blood. In addition to counting the number of blood cells, the CBC also measures or calculates other indices of the three cell types such as hemoglobin and hematocrit."

Generally two types of medical subspecialists intensively practice in this area, the hematologist and the hematopathologist. The hematologist usually is a Board-certified internist who has completed additional years of training in hematology, usually as part of a combined fellowship in hematology and oncology.

The primary function of blood is to supply oxygen and nutrients as well as constitutional elements to tissues and to remove waste products. Blood also enables hormones and other substances to be transported between tissues and organs. Problems with blood composition or circulation can lead to downstream tissue malfunction. Blood is also involved in maintaining homeostasis by acting as a medium for transferring heat to the skin and by acting as a buffer system for bodily p H. The blood is circulated through the lungs and body by the pumping action of the heart. The right ventricle pressurizes the blood to send it through the capillaries of the lungs, while the left ventricle re-pressurizes the blood to send it throughout the body. Pressure is essentially lost in the capillaries, hence gravity and especially the actions of skeletal muscles are needed to return the blood to the heart. Blood is a fluid tissue of human body, classified as a tissue of inner environment."

Red cells are approximately 7.8 μm (1 μm = 0.000039 inch) in diameter and have the form of biconcave disks, a shape that provides a large surface-to-volume ratio. When fresh blood is examined with the microscope, red cells appear to be yellow-green disks with pale centres containing no visible internal structures. When blood is centrifuged to cause the cells to settle, the volume of packed red cells ( hematocrit value) ranges between 42 and 54 percent of total volume in men and between 37 and 47 percent in women; values are somewhat lower in children. Normal red blood cells are fairly uniform in volume, so that the hematocrit value is determined largely by the number of red cells per unit of blood. The normal red cell count ranges between four million and six million per cubic millimetre. The red blood cell is enclosed in a thin membrane that is composed of chemically complex lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates in a highly organized structure. Extraordinary distortion of the red cell occurs in its passage through minute blood vessels, many of which have a diameter less than that of the red cell. When the deforming stress is removed, the cell springs back to its original shape. The red cell readily tolerates bending and folding, but, if appreciable stretching of the membrane occurs, the cell is damaged or destroyed."

I read one study which indicated that about one half of all hyperthyroids had clinically diagnosed anemia. It's possible, and to me quite likely, that the other half were also anemic but not diagnosed because they had copper-deficiency anemia and not iron-deficiency anemia. Anemia is usually caused by a deficiency of hemoglobin which is the oxygen carrying molecule in the red blood cell. While many minerals are important in the body's manufacture of hemoglobin, iron and copper are the most important. A deficiency of either iron or copper will result in anemia, either iron-deficiency anemia or copper-deficiency anemia. Anemia is often medically diagnosed by determining blood levels of iron and the iron-carrying protein ferritin. This test will determine anemia if the anemia is due to iron deficiency. However, this test will not show if the person has copper-deficiency anemia. It seems that many doctors are unaware of copper-deficiency anemia and will try to correct all cases of anemia by prescribing very large doses of iron."

In Psalm 78:10-11, 40-42, 56-57, the psalmist mentions that Ephraim (meaning Israel at large)did not keep the covenant of God; they refused to walk in His law, and forgot His works and His wonders that He had shown them. . . . How often they provoked Him in the wilderness, and grieved Him in the desert! Yes, again and again they tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel. They did not remember His power. . . .

AP File Photo GRAND RAPIDS, MI - Last week's Ethics and Religion Talk responded to a reader's question about sex before marriage. This week's column covers another aspect of sexuality: adultery. Specifically, if ancient Israel's King Solomon wasn't adulterous in taking hundreds of wives and concubines, then what's wrong with polygamous relationships today? _______________________________________________________________________ Ethics and Religion Talk, by Rabbi David Krishef Q: “Given that the Bible does not see multiple wives and concubines as a problem, if a married couple decides to bring another wife into the family, is this considered adultery?”The Hebrew Bible defines adultery as a sexual relationship between a man and a married women (to whom he is not married). Later Jewish tradition (at the beginning of the 11th century for European Jews, and in approximately 1948 for Jews from Middle Eastern countries) forbade multiple wives or concubines. Jewish law never made an effort to categorize such relationship as adulterous, however, because the consequence would be condemning the children as mamzerim, Biblical bastards, who could not marry other Jews. So while Jewish law would not sanctify a relationship between a man and more than one woman, it would not technically be adultery. However, even the Hebrew Bible sees multiple wives as a problem."

Subscribe to our Question of the Week: Question: \"\"What is iniquity according to the Bible?\"\" Answer: The Bible uses words such as iniquity, transgression, and trespass to indicate levels of disobedience to God. They are all categorized as “sin.” Micah 2:1 says, “Woe to those who plan iniquity, to those who plot evil on their beds! At morning’s light they carry it out because it is in their power to do it.” The Hebrew word used most often for “iniquity” means “guilt worthy of punishment.” Iniquity is sin at its worst.

Genesis 1:26-27 declares that mankind ( adam [ d'a ]) was created in God's image with a plural composition of male and female, each separately in God's image (cf. Gen 5:1-3 ; 9:6 ; 1 Cor 11:7 ; Col 3:10 ; James 3:9 ). Although the image of God is never defined in Scripture, contexts in which God's image are discussed must define the concept (cf. 2 Cor 3:18 ; and Col 3:10 ). God's image in Genesis 1 includes ruling, creativity (procreation), reasoning power, decision-making, and relationship.

Every church in the world today will fall into one or more of these categories of churches. We fit into one of these ourselves. The second thing is the prophetic nature of these letters.

Today we come to the fourth of these churches, the church at Thyatira. Beginning in Verse 18 of Chapter 2, the Lord addresses the angel of the church.

"text": "\"Society & Culture Religion & Spirituality Christians, why is it a sin to touch yourself? You know what I mean, right? Follow 23 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: It is a long story but in the development of mankind since Eden and the Law given at Sinai there is a thing called marriage between one man and one woman. Within this marriage IS sexual pleasure and God so ordained that to be only for a man and his wife. If sexual pleasure outside of marriage is not a sin as some here think, then it follows that sexual pleasure any way you can get it is not sin. Masturbation is a sin and this is taught in the Bible. As one here said you have to first know what sin is. You have to know what the Bible says. The Bible says nothing about molesting children per se yet we know it is wrong. God wrote his laws on our hearts."

"text": "\"I am divorced. Can I remarry according to the Bible? Subscribe to our Question of the Week: Question: \"\"I am divorced. Can I remarry according to the Bible?\"\" Answer: We often receive questions like “I am divorced for such and such a reason. Can I get remarried?” “ I have been divorced twice—the first for adultery by my spouse, the second for incompatibility. I am dating a man who has been divorced three times—the first for incompatibility, the second for adultery on his part, the third for adultery on his wife’s part. Can we get married to each other?” Questions like these are very difficult to answer because the Bible does not go into great detail regarding the various scenarios for remarriage after a divorce."

Though what sexual activities constitute adultery varies, as well as the social, religious, and legal consequences, the concept exists in many cultures and is similar in Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. [ 1] A single act of sexual intercourse is generally sufficient to constitute adultery, and a more long-term sexual relationship is sometimes referred to as an affair. Historically, many cultures have considered adultery to be a very serious crime. Adultery often incurred severe punishment, usually for the woman and sometimes for the man, with penalties including capital punishment, mutilation, or torture. [ 2] Such punishments have gradually fallen into disfavor, especially in Western countries from the 19th century. In most Western countries, adultery itself is no longer a criminal offense, but may still have legal consequences, particularly in divorce cases."

"text": "THE BLOG 04/03/2012 03:26 pm ET Updated Jun 03, 2012The Best Case for the Bible Not Condemning Homosexuality By John Shore God does not ask us to choose between compassion and faith in the Bible. Christians are increasingly divided over the issue of the acceptance and inclusion of gay persons into the church. The debate itself is usually framed as essentially pitting the Bible, on one hand, against compassion and social justice on the other. Our Christian hearts, runs the (usually impassioned) argument, compel us to grant full moral and legal equality to gay and lesbian people; our Christian faith, comes the (usually impassioned) rebuttal, compels us to cleave, above all, to the word of God. Compassion for others is the fundamental cornerstone of Christian ethics; the Bible is the bedrock of the Christian faith. What Christian can possibly choose between the two? The answer is that no Christian is called upon to make that choice. The text of the Bible on one hand, and full equality for gay and lesbian people on the other, is a false dichotomy. God would not ask or expect Christians to ever choose between their heart and their faith. Reconciling the Bible with unqualified acceptance and equality for LGBT people does not necessitate discounting, recasting, deconstructing or reinterpreting the Bible."

A woman who did the same thing was an ADULTERESS. Adultery is fornication. The Bible regards adultery as a great sin and a great social wrong. It has been inferred from John 8:1-11 that this sin became very common during the age preceding the destruction of Jerusalem .”Author: Matthew G. Easton. Adultery without sexual intercourse The Bible speaks of “wanton eyes ” ( Isaiah 3:16 ), “ eyes full of adultery ” ( 2 Peter 2:14 ), and “the lust of the eyes” ( 1 John 2:16 ). Jesus Christ warned,“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery already with her in his heart. ”As with the breaking of any of the Ten Commandments, those who are not washed in the blood of Jesus Christ will have to pay the penalty. They will not enter the Kingdom of God."

In 1907 the Australian Government awarded Mc Cormick £100 for his composition. In a letter to R. B.

Flag What is the routing number -BSB- for the Commonwealth Bank of Australia? Answered by The Wiki Answers ®Community Answers.com ® is making the world better one answer at a time. Commonwealth bank of Australia routing number or known as a Bank-State-Branch (often abbreviated as BSB ) is a six digit numerical code used within Australia that identifies an individual branch of a financial institution. The format of the code is as follows: First two digits specify the parent financial institution. Third digit specifies the state where the branch is located Fourth, fifth and sixth digits specify the branch For example, the BSB \"\"033088\"\" actually breaks down to the following: 03 - Westpac Banking Corporation 3 - Victoria 088 - 383 Chapel Street, Prahran Example two, the BSB \"\"062578\"\" actually breaks down to the following 06 - Commonwealth Bank of Australia 2 - New South Wales 578 - Cnr Burringbah and Station Sts Mullumbimby While banks usually follow this system, building societies and credit unions often do not. Building societies and former ones start with 63xxxx and credit unions 80xxxx. The state code does not always apply eg 633xxx is for Bendigo Bank which started as a building society in Victoria however 638xxx is for Queensland based Heritage Building Society. A financial institution may also use one centralised BSB for all accounts. Suncorp uses 484799 for all deposit accounts regardless of which branch or state the account was opened."

The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter is no stranger to controversy. It is, after all, the most expensive defence program in history. But the clamour of criticism is growing as new details emerge of its chief competitors — the Chinese J-20 and Russian T-50 stealth fighters. China, which topped the United States as the world’s largest economy in 2014, is pushing ahead with an ambitious military expansion program. And it’s throwing money at several new stealth designs to ensure their success. Special delivery ... Australia’s first F-35 arrives for training operations in the US last month. Source: Supplied The result: A looming shift in the balance of air power that threatens to eliminate the air superiority lead the West has held since World War II. An increasingly cash-strapped United States may be finding itself in a similar position to that of the United Kingdom before World War II — a waning world power in deep denial of its fading might. All its air-defence eggs, along with those of most of its allies — are now in the one F-35 Lightning II basket."

Peterson and Jon Van Til *“Civil society” has become a central theme in contemporary thought about philanthropy and civic activity, yet it is difficult to define, inherently complex, and resistant to being categorized or interpreted through a singular theoretical lens. The term is increasingly used to suggest how public life should function within and between societies; at the same time, it provides a way of describing the social action that occurs within the context of voluntary associations or intermediary bodies (Riesman and Glazer, 1950; Van Til, 2000). Nonprofit organizations, like other groups and institutions in modern societies, operate within and are conditioned by three types of systems: economic, political, and social. Nonprofits themselves, in turn, give group members the opportunity to exercise three fundamental civic principles: participatory engagement, constitutional authority, and moral responsibility. Matrices (such as the one included in this article) are helpful tools for considering terms such as civil society that contain multiple facets of meaning, characteristics, and relationships. This particular matrix illustrates the unique and specific meaning contained within each characteristic--and the interrelationships that exist between characteristics--of this complex concept. These systems and principles produce a matrix of nine civil society characteristics that can be used to evaluate and guide the work of various agencies, groups, and organizations. A careful assessment of these characteristics can be useful to nonprofit organizations in identifying the presence of civil society and gauging its strength within a particular social context, and helpful in matching organizational goals to specific civic actions that will encourage positive social change. Widespread and legitimate citizen involvement in this civic context remains a foundation for nurturing and sustaining healthy and productive societies, especially in urban settings."

Breach of either a condition or a warranty will give rise to damages. It is an objective matter of fact whether a term goes to the root of a contract. By way of illustration, an actress's obligation to perform the opening night of a theatrical production is a condition, [4] whereas a singer's obligation to perform during the first three days of rehearsal is a warranty.

"text": "\"Home Express and implied contracts Express and implied contracts A contract can be either an express contract or an implied contract. An express contract is one in which the terms are expressed verbally, either orally or in writing. An implied contract is one in which some of the terms are not expressed in words. Implied in fact or implied in law An implied contract can either be implied in fact or implied in law . A contract which is implied in fact is one in which the circumstances imply that parties have reached an agreement even though they have not done so expressly. For example, by going to a doctor for a physical, a patient agrees that he will pay a fair price for the service. If he refuses to pay after being examined, he has breached a contract implied in fact. Quasi-contract A contract which is implied in law is also called a quasi-contract , because it is not in fact a contract; rather, it is a means for the courts to remedy situations in which one party would be unjustly enriched were he or she not required to compensate the other. For example, an unconscious patient treated by a doctor at the scene of an accident has not agreed (either expressly or by implication) to pay the doctor for emergency services, but the patient would be unjustly enriched by the doctor's services were the patient not required to compensate the doctor. Incorporation of terms Course of dealing If two parties have regularly conduct business on certain terms, it may be reasonable to presume that in future dealings where there is no contract, the parties wish to incorporate the terms of the previous contracts."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Part of the Politics series Electoral systems Plurality/majoritarian [show]Proportional representation [show]Mixed systems [show]Other systems & related theory [show]Politics portalv t e Instant-runoff voting ( IRV) is a voting method used in single-seat elections with more than two candidates. Instead of voting only for a single candidate, voters in IRV elections can rank the candidates in order of preference. Ballots are initially counted for each elector's top choice, losing candidates are eliminated, and ballots for losing candidates are redistributed until one candidate is the top remaining choice of a majority of the voters. When the field is reduced to two, it has become an \"\"instant runoff\"\" that allows a comparison of the top two candidates head-to-head. IRV has the effect of avoiding split votes when multiple candidates earn support from like-minded voters. As a simple example, suppose there are two candidates with similar views, A and B, and a third with different views, C; with first-preference totals of 35% for candidate A, 25% for B and 40% for C. In a plurality voting election, candidate C may win with 40% of the votes, even though 60% of electors prefer both A and B over C. Alternatively, voters are pressured to choose the seemingly stronger candidate of either A or B, despite personal preference for the other, in order to help ensure the defeat of C. With IRV, the electors backing B as their first choice can rank A second, which means candidate A will win by 60% to 40% over C despite the split vote in first choices. Instant-runoff voting is used in national elections in several countries. For example, it is used to elect members of the Australian House of Representatives and most Australian state legislatures; [1] the President of India and members of legislative councils in India; the President of Ireland; [2] members of Congress in Maine in the United States; [3] and the parliament in Papua New Guinea. The method is also used in local elections around the world, as well as by some political parties (to elect internal leaders) and private associations, for various voting purposes such as that for choosing the Academy Award for Best Picture. IRV is described in Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised under the name preferential voting [4]; it is also sometimes referred to as ranked-choice voting, alternative vote, or transferable vote."

I also acknowledge and pay my respects to the memory of Professor Alice Tay. I never met Professor Tay but she remains fondly remembered by the Australian Human Rights Commission, an institution she headed when it was still known as the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission. Her legacy as a scholar and advocate continues to illuminate the practice of human rights and its relationship with the law. This is true of those matters to which Herbert and Valmae Freilich dedicated their Foundation. In an address she gave in 1998, Professor Tay reminded us that ‘the very notion of cultural diversity is clearly linked to the issue of human rights, such as the right to liberty and equality’. Support for diversity, she said, was based on the ideal of a pluralist society. Such an ideal encompassed not only the composition of its people, but also its values, traditions and institutions. ["

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search In linguistics, an adverbial phrase (\"\"Adv P\"\") is a multi-word expression operating adverbially: its syntactic function is to modify other expressions, including verbs, adjectives, adverbs, adverbials, and sentences. Adverbial Phrases can be divided into two types: complement adverbs versus modifier adverbs. [ 1] For example in the sentence She sang very well, the expression very well is an adverbial phrase, as it modifies the verb sing. [ 1] More specifically, the adverbial phrase very well contains two adverbials, very and well: while well modifies the verb to convey information about the manner of singing (for example, She sang well versus She sang badly ), very is a degree modifier that conveys information about the degree to which the action of singing well was accomplished (for example, Not only did she sing well, she sang very well ).

Degree Adverbial Phrases [ edit]The heads of each of the following adverbial phrases are degree adverbials (written Deg in syntactic trees). Degree adverbials modify adjacent adverbs (that is, an adverb that is lower in the syntactic tree than the degree adverbial). [ 2] Degree adverbials are commonly used in English to convey the intensity, degree, or focusing of an adjacent adverb. [ 3] In most cases, a degree adverbial is used to modify an adverb in an adverbial phrase: for example, in (1) the degree adverbial very modifies the adverb quickly; in (2) the degree adverbial extremely modifies the adverb hard; in (3) the degree adverbial really modifies the adverb well; and in (4), the degree adverbial so modifies the adverb soon.

"text": "How, Where, Why – Adverbial Phrases Will Tell You An adverbial phrase is a group of words that refines the meaning of a verb, adjective, or adverb. Similar to adverbs, adverbial phrases modify other words by explaining why, how, where, or when an action occurred. They may also describe the conditions of an action or object, or the degree to which an action or object was affected. Consider the following sentence: “He drove the school bus as carefully as possible .” The word drove is the verb, and the adverbial phrase as carefully as possible describes how the driver performed the action. Adverbial phrases don’t contain a subject and a verb. When these elements are present, the group of words is considered an adverbial clause. The following sentence is an example: “ When the show ends, we’re getting dinner.” Whether it’s a phrase or a clause, an adverbial construction is dependent on the main subject and verb. It can’t form a complete idea on its own."

There are far fewer structure-class words than form-class words; but there are no easy formal tests to identify them, and, since they themselves help determine function, functional tests are of limited value. In general, it is necessary to memorise lists of words that belong to the various parts of speech in the structure-class category. In some cases, structure-class words function in more than one capacity, and, in these cases functional tests can help you determine which part of speech the word is functioning as in the sentence. Determiners A determiner is a structure-class word that precedes and modifies a noun. Prototypical examples are:the definite article: the the indefinite article: a/an Previous students have brought to my attention that many teachers teach that the articles are adjectives. You can see why from the above definition. But they are not the same. For one thing, they are structure class, whereas adjectives are form class. For another, they group with other determiners and share important differences from adjectives:determiners don’t occur with any adjective-forming derivational suffixes, such as – able or – ly.determiners don’t have comparative or superlative forms: tall, taller , tallest; this, * thiser, * thisest.determiners will not fit in both slots of the adjective test frame sentence: The ____ man seems very ____.determiners always precede any adjective or noun modifiers of a noun, as does the in the expensive car stereo."

( February 2018) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)In grammar, a modifier is an optional element in phrase structure or clause structure. [ 1] A modifier is so called because it is said to modify (change the meaning of) another element in the structure, on which it is dependent. Typically the modifier can be removed without affecting the grammar of the sentence. For example, in the English sentence This is a red ball, the adjective red is a modifier, modifying the noun ball. Removal of the modifier would leave This is a ball, which is grammatically correct and equivalent in structure to the original sentence. Other terms used with a similar meaning are qualifier (the word qualify may be used in the same way as modify in this context), attribute, and adjunct. These concepts are often distinguished from complements and arguments, which may also be considered dependent on another element, but are considered an indispensable part of the structure."

"text": "\"Advanced Grammar: Inversions Some stuff about inversions in English that you might find useful. Inversions in English What is an inversion? In general, an \"\"inversion\"\" is a changed order of things. If X usually comes before Y, the inverted order will be Y first, then X. When looking at the grammar of the English language we see inversions for instance in the normal order of the subject and the verb in a sentence. To explain what an inversion is in English, first think of a simple sentence like: \"\"Graffiti is ugly.\"\" In sentences like this the subject ( graffiti) must come before the verb ( is ). This is the normal order. The most common example of the inverted order of the subject and the verb is seen in questions such as: \"\"Is graffiti ugly?\"\" The English language often uses this kind of inversion to make a question, but this is not the only time that the normal order of the subject and the verb in a sentence is inverted. In the ECPE grammar section there will be a few questions where you have to spot the correct order of the words."

Example:– The baby crying was abandoned in the forest.=> “crying” is the present participle.

Photo by Scarleth Marie; licensed via Creative Commons.by Gerald Erichsen Updated March 18, 2017Here are 10 facts about Spanish prepositions that will come in handy as you learn the language.1. A preposition is a part of speech that is used to connect a noun with another part of a sentence. That noun — or noun substitute such as a pronoun, infinitive or phrase acting like a noun — is known as a prepositional object. Unlike interjections and verbs, prepositions cannot stand alone; they are always used with objects.2. Prepositions, preposiciones in Spanish, are called that because they are positioned before objects. In Spanish this is always true. Except perhaps in some kind of poetry where the rules of word order are discarded, the prepositional object always follows the preposition. This is in contrast with English, where it is possible to place a preposition at the end of a sentence, especially in questions such as \"\"Whom are you going with ?\"\""

However, there are situations when, if you don't use this comma (especially when the list is complex or lengthy), these last two items in the list will try to glom together (like macaroni and cheese). Using a comma between all the items in a series, including the last two, avoids this problem. This last comma—the one between the word \"\"and\"\" and the preceding word—is often called the serial comma or the Oxford comma."

As a classroom teacher, reading specialist, and university professor, I have always found helpful published summaries or syntheses of professional-related information relevant to my work. In this article, I review the current editions of eight informal reading inventories (IRIs) published since 2002 that are available at the time of this writing. Specifically, I identify key issues surrounding the use of IRIs and examine ways in which the various IRIs reviewed approach them. A goal of this undertaking is to guide teachers, reading specialists, reading coaches, administrators, professionals in higher education, and others charged with the education or professional development of preservice or inservice teachers in their quest to find IRIs best suited to their specific needs. I hope the findings point to new ways in which IRIs can be made even more effective in the near future. What are informal reading inventories (IRIs)? IRIs are individually administered diagnostic assessments designed to evaluate a number of different aspects of students' reading performance. Typically, IRIs consist of graded word lists and passages ranging from preprimer level to middle or high school levels (Paris & Carpenter, 2003). After reading each leveled passage, a student responds orally to follow-up questions assessing comprehension and recall."

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

C. R. S. 18-3-208. The definition of “ recklessly ” is: “A person acts recklessly when he consciously disregards a substantial and unjustifiable risk that a result will occur or that a circumstance exists. ”Every Crime is broken down into it’s elements – to prove this crime beyond a reasonable doubt – the District Attorney mut prove that:1. The Defendant2. Recklessly3, Engaged in Conduct which created a Substantial Risk of Serious Bodily Injury4. To Another Person The focus on most defenses to this crime is defeating the mental state behind the act itself – that mental state is “Recklessly.” Sometimes that requires the testimony of an expert on the standard of care to be applied in a given example of someone’s conduct. For example when it comes to the crime of manslaughter in Colorado: Recklessness involves a higher level of culpability than criminal negligence, but requires less culpability than intentional actions. The State establishes a cause of action for reckless manslaughter when it proves the defendant caused the victim’s death and the defendant Consciously disregarded a substantial and Unjustified risk that he would Cause the death of another."

When to use: Before reading During reading After reading How to use: Individually With small groups Whole class setting More comprehension strategies Directed Reading Thinking Activity (DRTA)Listen-Read-Discuss (LRD)Think Alouds Why teach inference? Inference is a \"\"foundational skill\"\" — a prerequisite for higher-order thinking and 21st century skills (Marzano, 2010)Inference skills are used across the curriculum, including English language arts, science and social studies. Because inferring requires higher order thinking skills, it can be difficult for many students. However, it can be taught through explicit instruction in inferential strategies How to teach inference One simplified model for teaching inference includes the following assumptions: We need to find clues to get some answers. We need to add those clues to what we already know or have read."

"text": "\"Sequences and Common Descent How We Can Trace Ancestry Through Genetics By Wesley R. Elsberry Last updated: 19990817If you think you've found a problem in the following, please email me at [email protected] . Organismal biology is my field, so I'd appreciate feedback from molecular biologists. Some anti-evolutionists claim that sequence data from proteins and genetics disprove the idea of common descent. Because humans evolved from primates, who evolved from other mammals, who evolved from reptiles, who evolved from amphibians, who evolved from fish, etc. back to bacteria, then supporting data from sequence studies should show greater differences between humans and bacteria than between fish and bacteria, according to those anti-evolutionists. The data from sequencing the cytochrome-c protein across a few modern species shows that the pattern of differences does not fit that view. Instead, virtually the same distance from the sequence in modern bacteria exists to all modern metazoans. The anti-evolutionists would like you to believe that this poses a problem for the theory of common descent. I will endeavor to explain why they are mistaken. So what does common descent actually imply for sequences?"

[ 1] These types formalize and enforce the otherwise implicit categories the programmer uses for data structures and components (e.g. \"\"string\"\", \"\"array of float\"\", \"\"function returning boolean\"\"). The main purpose of a type system is to reduce possibilities for bugs in computer programs [2] by defining interfaces between different parts of a computer program, and then checking that the parts have been connected in a consistent way. This checking can happen statically (at compile time ), dynamically (at run time ), or as a combination of static and dynamic checking."

"text": "\"The following observations may seem wholly unrelated, but all can be understood within a framework of psychological essentialism: The president of Harvard recently suggested that the relative scarcity of women in \"\"high-end\"\" science and engineering professions is attributable in large part to male-female differences in intrinsic aptitude (Summers, 2005). In a nationally representative survey of Black and White Americans, most adults agreed with the statement, \"\"Two people from the same race will always be more genetically similar to each other than two people from different races\"\" (Jayaratne, 2001). Nearly half the U. S. population reject evolutionary theory, finding it implausible that one species can transform into another (Evans, 2001). A recent study of heart transplant recipients found that over one third believed that they might take on qualities or personality characteristics of the person who had donated the heart (Inspector, Kutz, & David, 2004). One woman reported that she sensed her donor's \"\"male energy\"\" and \"\"purer essence\"\" (Sylvia & Novak, 1997; pp. 107, 108). It is estimated that roughly half of all adopted people search for a birth parent at some point in their lives (Müller & Perry, 2001). People place higher value on authentic objects than exact copies (ranging from an original Picasso painting to Britney Spears's chewed-up gum; Frazier & Gelman, 2005). Essentialism is the view that certain categories (e.g., women, racial groups, dinosaurs, original Picasso artwork) have an underlying reality or true nature that one cannot observe directly. Furthermore, this underlying reality (or \"\"essence\"\") is thought to give objects their identity, and to be responsible for similarities that category members share."

Related Choosing Words to Teach Vocabulary Development During Read-Alouds Linking the Language: A Cross-Disciplinary Vocabulary Approach Vocabulary is the knowledge of words and word meanings. As Steven Stahl (2005) puts it, \"\"Vocabulary knowledge is knowledge; the knowledge of a word not only implies a definition, but also implies how that word fits into the world.\"\" Vocabulary knowledge is not something that can ever be fully mastered; it is something that expands and deepens over the course of a lifetime. Instruction in vocabulary involves far more than looking up words in a dictionary and using the words in a sentence. Vocabulary is acquired incidentally through indirect exposure to words and intentionally through explicit instruction in specific words and word-learning strategies. According to Michael Graves (2000), there are four components of an effective vocabulary program:wide or extensive independent reading to expand word knowledgeinstruction in specific words to enhance comprehension of texts containing those wordsinstruction in independent word-learning strategies, andword consciousness and word-play activities to motivate and enhance learning Components of vocabulary instruction The National Reading Panel (2000) concluded that there is no single research-based method for teaching vocabulary. From its analysis, the panel recommended using a variety of direct and indirect methods of vocabulary instruction.

"text": "\"Comprehension Instruction: What Works By: Michael Pressley Without a strong background in basic skills like decoding and vocabulary-building, reading comprehension is impossible. This article offers research-based strategies for building on these and other skills to increase student understanding of what is read. Reading is often thought of as a hierarchy of skills, from processing of individual letters and their associated sounds to word recognition to text-processing competencies. Skilled comprehension requires fluid articulation of all these processes, beginning with the sounding out and recognition of individual words to the understanding of sentences in paragraphs as part of much longer texts. There is instruction at all of these levels that can be carried out so as to increase student understanding of what is read. Based on research, a strong case can be made for doing the following in order to improve reading comprehension in students: Teach decoding skills Teach vocabulary Word knowledge Encourage students to build world knowledge through reading and to relate what they know to what they read (e.g., by asking \"\"Why?\"\" questions about factual knowledge in text). Active comprehension strategies Teach students to use a repertoire of active comprehension strategies, including prediction, analyzing stories with respect to story grammar elements, question asking, image construction, and summarizing. Monitoring Encourage students to monitor their comprehension, noting explicitly whether decoded words make sense and whether the text itself makes sense. When problems are detected, students should know that they need to reprocess (e.g., by attempting to sound out problematic words again or rereading)."

Investors can access BDCs through various methods including publicly traded BDCs, BDC index funds and ETFs, and non-publicly traded BDCs. It is the non-publicly traded BDCs, like non-publicly traded REITs, that are truly heinous. Non-publicly traded BDCs have no reason for existing, let alone appearing in investor portfolios. There have been numerous articles written cautioning investors against non-publicly traded BDCs. In response to one of those articles, the CEO of Franklin Square published a rebuttal defending non-publicly traded BDCs and his company’s offerings. I decided to take a deeper look at Franklin Square’s latest offering: FS Investment Corporation III or FSIC III. After reading through the prospectus, the three biggest issues I found were high fees, misaligned management incentives, and a fee structure that encourages excessive risk taking. High Fees Are Rampant Upfront fees include selling commissions of 7%, dealer management fees of 3%, and offering expenses of 1.5%. That is 11.5% of expenses before the company makes any investments."

Not to worry though, we’ll use this opportunity to settle the issue no matter your situation. In general, the tax code allows for the deduction of expenses incurred in the production of income. With regards to investment income expenses, there are essentially two types: Any expense incurred in the purchase or sale of a security, such a commission or a sales load on a mutual fund. These expenses are not tax deductible. Rather, they are applied against the cost basis in the purchase or sale of the security.

"text": "#Money July 9, 2012 / 1:18 PM / 5 years ago New clients, old problems for prepaid debit cards Beth Pinsker Gladstone7 Min Read NEW YORK (Reuters) - Chris Williams, a solidly middle-class family man, is so wary of banks and overspending, that he has become the new face of prepaid debit cards. The 49-year-old executive at a public relations firm in Meredith, New Hampshire, swore off credit cards in favor of a prepaid debit card before a trip to New York last year, hoping it would keep a lid on the family’s spending. It soothed him to know the card walled off financial information that thieves can potentially steal from credit card companies. The experience proved so positive, Williams plans to continue using the card, even though the charges for using prepaid cards can far exceed the costs associated with using credit cards, checking accounts or other forms of payment. Indeed, experts caution that these cards aren’t right for everyone and that consumers need to look past the vigorous marketing pushes by prepaid card firms that use celebrity faces or folksy, anti-Wall Street messages to lure new, middle-class customers. Prepaid debit cards, which came into the marketplace in the mid-1990s, allow consumers without credit cards or bank accounts to make card purchases or to get cash via ATM networks. The supposed advantage is that the accounts don’t overdraft, because they only access your own funds. But they come with fees that can add up, with several studies showing these often exceed those charged by checking accounts. CHALKING UP FEESA Nerdwallet.com study from May found “prepaid fees were just as complex and even more common, and that the perceived benefit of ease of budgeting comes with unexpected costs. ”For example, Williams’ prepaid card comes with a $3 monthly fee, and charges for extras such as balance inquiries and reloading fees, while a typical checking account has no fees with minimum balance requirements."

"text": "Investor Bulletin: Custody of Your Investment Assets March 1, 2013SEC-registered investment advisers who have custody of their clients’ funds or securities must safeguard those funds as required by the SEC’s “custody rule.” The custody rule is designed to provide additional safeguards for investors against the possibility of theft or misappropriation by investment advisers who are registered with the SEC. Despite the protections offered by the custody rule, investors still need to be proactive in ensuring the safety of their investments. What is custody? Custody by investment advisers means holding client funds or securities, directly or indirectly, or having the authority to obtain possession of them. For example, advisers have custody where the adviser has possession of client funds and securities or has power of attorney to sign checks on a client’s behalf, to withdraw funds or securities from the client’s account, including fees, or to otherwise dispose of a client’s assets for any purpose other than authorized trading. What does the custody rule require? The custody rule imposes a number of requirements on SEC-registered investment advisers to protect client funds and securities over which the adviser has custody. Use of “qualified custodians” to hold client assets. First, with certain limited exceptions, an investment adviser is required to maintain client funds and securities with a “qualified custodian.”"

Hilzenrath Topics: Public Health and Science Tags: Drug Problems Series, Drug Money Series This is part 2 in a series; read the first part, “DRUG MONEY: FDA Depends on Industry Funding; Money Comes with ‘Strings Attached’”At an August 15, 2016, public forum convened by the Food and Drug Administration, panelist Marc Boutin introduced himself as CEO of National Health Council and said his organization provides “a united voice for people with chronic disease and disabilities.” Speaking at the agency’s invitation, he proceeded to praise a far-reaching deal the FDA had struck with the pharmaceutical lobby—a bargain designed in part to speed FDA approval of new drugs. Boutin’s comments added credibility to the deal and wrapped it in the embrace of suffering patients, a group bound to evoke sympathy. But there were a few things neither Boutin nor his hosts at the FDA mentioned. National Health Council gets most of its funding from drug companies, its members include many drug companies, and representatives of drug companies and their main lobbying organizations serve on its board. Boutin’s appearance epitomized a larger phenomenon. Under federal law, the FDA was required to consult patient and consumer representatives before taking a momentous step this year: agreeing to a new, binding plan that will shape the way the agency reviews prescription drugs for years to come. The law gave the pharmaceutical industry a much more powerful role than it gave patients or consumers. Astonishingly, it required the FDA to negotiate the plan with industry. In theory, requiring the FDA to hold a series of meetings with patient and consumer representatives provided at least a modest check on the extraordinary influence the negotiations give drug lobbyists over drug regulators."

"text": "Aug 14, 2014 @ 11:25 am By Mark Schoeff Jr. The Securities and Exchange Commission's attempt to ferret out conflicts of interest at registered investment advisers has zeroed in on potential misuse of popular flat-fee wrap accounts. The SEC made the vehicles an examination priority this year and is following through with vigor, according to Patrick J. Burns, an attorney who specializes in investment advisory compliance. “They seem to be spending an inordinate amount of time on wrap fee programs,” Mr. Burns said. “ It seems to have been built into the general exams over the last couple of months. It's definitely going to hit firms by surprise that that level of focus is being placed on just one issue. ”Clients pay an annual or quarterly fee for wrap products that manage a portfolio of investments, rather than paying individual commissions for trades. For advisers who charge fees based on assets under management, these money management charges for wrap products often are additional — either billed to the client separately or through a higher adviser AUM fee to cover them. The assets in such arrangements totaled $3.5 trillion in 2013, a 25% increase from 2012, according to Cerulli Associates Inc. The market includes separately managed accounts, mutual fund advisory programs, exchange-traded-fund advisory programs, unified managed accounts and two types of brokerage-based managed accounts. “The market is growing tremendously,” said Tom O'Shea, associate director at Cerulli. “ The SEC needs to understand this space."

Unfortunately, you cannot “hang” any previous licenses as part of your registered investment advisory firm (e.g. Series 7, etc.). The Series 65 by itself does not give you the right to give advice or charge fees, etc. You are still required to file your individual registration documents with your state jurisdiction, in most states a Form U4, and be approved by that jurisdiction before you can sign any clients or provide any advice for a fee. ( Note: New York uses a registration document called an NY-IAQ, Minnesota will begin requiring registration of representatives for the first time in 2013, and Wyoming does not register investment advisor representatives. ) If I currently hold the Series 7 and 66 licenses, do I need to take the Series 65 exam to become an investment advisor representative? If you have successfully passed both the Series 7 and 66 examinations and have been affiliated with a broker/dealer in the past 24 months, than a prospective investment advisor representative will generally not be required to take the Series 65 examination as the active Series 7 and 66 combination will suffice.

"text": "\"Investing for Beginners Personal Finance Investment Tax Deductions You May Have Overlooked Here Are Some Tax Deductible Investment Expenses You May Not Have Considered Share Flip Pin Email•••By Joshua Kennon Updated January 26, 2017As a new investor, you might not realize there are a number of investment tax deductions for which you might qualify, lowering your overall tax burden. This simple guide was designed to help you discover some of those potential investing tax deductions you may not have known existed so you can ask your qualified accountant or tax attorney if it is something of which you can avail yourself, keeping more cash in your pocket. You Might Be Able to Take Advantage of an Investment Tax Deduction for Investment Advisory Fees Although you cannot deduct the commissions you pay to your stock broker on trades executed in your brokerage account — those are added to the cost basis of your individual tax lot positions and eventually used to calculate any applicable capital gains or capital losses, on which you will pay taxes or potentially receive a tax deduction — there are a number of fees, expenses, and other advisory charges on which you might be able to take an investment tax deduction depending upon the circumstances including, in some cases, how large of an expense they represent to your taxable or adjusted gross income. For example, if you are like many affluent or wealthy Americans, you may work with a registered investment advisor. Many registered investment advisors operate on a fee-only basis, meaning that unlike other financial institutions or professionals, they don't make money from referring you to certain financial products nor do they generate any revenue from executing trades on your behalf. Instead, they charge you investment advisory fees, often a percentage of assets under management, flat fees, or hourly fees depending upon the firm with which you are working, your specific needs, and the nature of the services you are being offered. Typically, fees can range anywhere from 0.05 percent to 3 percent or, in some cases if you are a qualified client, a percentage of performance, say 15 percent to 25 percent of the net realized and unrealized appreciation in a custody account. You know I'm a big fan of using real-world examples to drive points home because I think it makes it easier to understand concepts. To provide such an illustration, the private asset management company I'm establishing later this year to manage my family's wealth along with the wealth of affluent and high net worth individuals, families, and institutions who have at least $500,000 to invest alongside us, Kennon-Green & Co., is currently in the planning stages but our preliminary business model anticipates our fee schedule ranging somewhere between 0.25 percent and 1.5 percent depending upon the portfolio specifics and other relevant considerations. We will be a true asset management company, though, and not what most people think of when they think of a financial planner whose primary business activity includes creating financial plans, charging a fee, then investing money in mutual funds, index funds, and exchange-traded funds, which themselves have their own fees included in the expense ratio on top of the advisory fee."

"title": "http://budgeting.thenest.com/administrative-fees-retirement-plans-tax-deductible-32763.html\nAre Administrative Fees for Retirement Plans Tax Deductible?",
"text": "\"Fees charged within your retirement account are not deductible. The Internal Revenue Service lays down the rules on retirement accounts such as Individual Retirement Accounts and 401Ks. For example: you can deduct contributions to a traditional IRA, up to an annual limit, or take withdrawals tax-free from a Roth IRA. Although advisory fees to run a brokerage account are normally tax-deductible, that doesn't apply to any fees charged directly to a retirement account. To deduct these costs, you have to pay them with outside funds. Active Management and Fees A bank or financial adviser that is actively managing your retirement account will normally charge a fee, usually a percentage of total assets in the account. Although the IRS allows you to deduct advisory fees and commissions, this does not apply to costs that you pay directly from the funds in the retirement account. If the manager simply deducts the fee from cash in the account, you can't deduct it. Reimbursements and Deductions If your retirement account pays a fee, and you reimburse the account to pay for it, the IRS considers that money to be an additional contribution. It counts toward your annual limit, and in the case of a traditional IRA would be deductible."

After experiencing some very minor stomach cramps over a course of 3 days, my loving wife convinced me to go the Emergency Room. The trip to the ER and a CT Scan revealed that I had a ruptured appendix with internal infection of the intestines, which also was threatening my colon. After the emergency surgery I spent 5 days in the hospital, only to be released and then readmitted a few days later for internal infection concerns. Once I was at home recuperating, I began to struggle with incision infection issues. Without getting real gross, the internal infection I was fighting caused fluid to push its way through my rather larger mid-line abdominal incision, causing the sutures to bust open. Not fun. I spent more time dealing with the incision stuff than I did with the actual ruptured appendix. ( 4 additional trips to the ER)."

But, if you want to earn income with Advocare then you need to strongly consider coming in at the Advisor level. At this leve, you earn the highest commissions and are able to earn income in 5 different ways instead of just 2 ways. How Your Advocare Discount Works Your $59 membership fee puts you at a 20% discount and commission level but if you buy or sell $500 within 6 weeks then you will move to the 25% discount level. And once you reach a level then you are there for as long as you remain a current Advocare memeber."

If any component of the motorcycle can elicit disdain, fear and loathing, it is the poor old under appreciated magneto. Just the thought of having to work on one runs shivers up many a veteran rider's spine. Why does the magneto have such an aura of the supernatural about it? Probably because most folks don't understand how they work. It's not their fault, even back in the heyday of the motorcycle magnetos, only a few skilled craftsman were trained in their operation. Fast forward 70 years and there are less than a handful who really understand them and are willing to undertake repairs. So it is not at all surprising that most riders are a little wary of the mysterious magneto. It's well beyond the scope of this article to delve into the depths of the many magneto designs and theory. But we will look at some of the causes of difficult starting with magneto ignition."

When something resists the flow of electric current (which pretty much everything except for superconductors do) then the energy gets converted into heat. The flow of electricity in a shock like that is too short and contains too little energy to heat up things noticably.

"text": "Quick Links SOTA Weight Loss Jenny Craig Advocare Advisor is for Business Builders Become an Advisor for less!You can become an advisor once you accrue orders totaling at least $2,000 in retail including at least $500 in Personal Volume, in twenty-four (24) consecutive Pay Periods. The best way to become an advisor is to simply place a $2,000 retail order and you immediately reach the advisor level and the 40% discount level. As long as you pay your yearly membership fee of $50, you will always be at the 40% level. The $2,000 retail order will cost you approximately $1400 depending on sales tax and whether you will be paying shipping costs because you will get the products at a discount but get credit for the retail amount. What's so Great about the Advisor Level? First, you get the highest level discount on your products: 40% and that means you get the highest level of commission: 40%. You can buy products at your discount and then sell them at retail price...thus making 40% on each product sold. But, you also earn income 4 other ways! Besides retail profits, you earn income with wholesale commissions, overrides, bonuses, and incentives. What are Wholesale Commissions?"

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

"text": "\"Reduce Water Retention And Lose Weight With These Simple Tips Water retention is everyone’s favorite reason for explaining weight gain, or difficulty in achieving weight loss. But, water retention can affect the best of us, and can sometimes sabotage weight loss plans. If you’re feeling puffed and bloated, and don’t seem to get anywhere no matter how many crunches you do, you may be suffering from water retention. What is Water Retention? Edema, also known as fluid or water retention, and is caused by the accumulation of excess fluids in the circulatory system and areas between the body's cells. It can cause different body parts to swell, with the face, hands, feet, ankles and legs being most common. Edema often affects pregnant women, but anyone can develop the condition. Certain diuretic and potassium-rich foods can help combat edema. Causes of Water Retention According to University of Maryland Medical Center, there are many potential causes of water retention, such as the body’s reaction to humid weather, hormonal changes during menstration, pregnancy, menopause and side effects of oral contraceptive pills among women. Nutritional deficiencies, hypothyroidism, heart or liver disorders could be the reasons behind water retention for both, men and women."

Redd, it takes a few days for personalized to get a good number, but it is unlikely that sedentary would give you a higher allowance than personalized. Personalized takes your average fitbit estimated calorie burn for the past few days as your starting point then subtracts whatever deficit you asked for in your settings. My fitbit allowance usually starts between 1200-1500 depending how active I was the previous few days. This is pretty in line with my Spark allowance. With either the sedentary or personalized setting, the calorie allowance should update throughout the day according to your actual activity level. The sedentary starts very low for me so I don't use it, that is because it is subtracting 500 calories from what I would burn if I were completely sedentary--and that would be too low an allowance at my stats. If you have been using fitbit for a while and are getting such low allowances on personalized, it sounds like you are set for too fast a rate of loss for your body. The options are .5 pound a week, 1 pound a week, 1.5 pounds a week and 2 pounds a week. A lot of people will set theirs for a 2 pound a week loss then post how they have a very low allowance."

Wouldn’t it be great if you could lose weight while catching a bit of shuteye? Well let me tell you the Good news – you can! Here are my favorite ways to burn fat while you sleep. Managing Your Metabolism Metabolism is all the work your body does that requires calories (energy) like, thinking, breathing, and moving your muscles. Metabolism plays a major role in how much you weigh, especially with each passing birthday. Sometime in your 30s, your metabolism starts slowing down by about 5% every decade. That means if you eat about 1,800 calories a day and fit into size 10s when you're 35, you'll be shopping for 12s when you're 45, even if you're eating the same number of calories. The culprit behind this decline in calorie-burn is muscle loss, says Steve Farrell, Ph D, associate director of The Cooper Institute in Dallas. Every pound of muscle you lose can decrease the number of calories you burn by as many as 30 a day."

"text": "\"By Nicole Nichols , Spark People Blogger 8/18/2013It sounds like you're referring to a \"\"calories in vs. calories out\"\" type of equation. First you need to understand that one pound of fat is made up of roughly 3,500 extra calories. So in order to lose one pound of fat, you need to create a caloric deficit of 3,500 calories. Basically, you can create a deficit of calories in three different ways: 1. Eat fewer calories than you burn each day. Keep in mind that your body burns calories all day long as part of your basal metabolic rate (BMR), because it takes energy (calories) for your body to perform basic physiological functions that are necessary for life—breathing, digesting, circulating, thinking and more. On top of that, physical activity (bathing, walking, typing and exercising) uses even more calories each day. It's not important for you to know what your BMR is. Your Spark Diet has already estimated your BMR based on variables like age, gender and weight, so you don't have to do any calculations. The calorie goal recommended in your Spark Diet plan will help you create a caloric deficit and lose weight."

"text": "\"Reverse Weight Gain And Improve Skin In Days With Fiber. Here’s How Americans just do not get enough fiber each day, and this isn’t surprising, since fiber is the indigestible portion of plant foods, and the standard American diet is largely refined, with the healthful fibers often processed out. Unless you regularly eat whole fruits and vegetables, nuts, and seeds, you are probably missing out on the healthiest forms of fiber available – and that is a problem. Individuals with high intakes of dietary fiber appear to be at significantly lower risk for developing coronary heart disease, stroke, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and certain gastrointestinal diseases. There are two forms of fiber: soluble and insoluble, that are found naturally in the fruits, vegetables, and whole grains we eat. When the fiber in these foods pass through our digestive system, it remains either undigested or gets digested. Both types of fiber are equally important for health, digestion, and preventing conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and various types of cancers. Benefits Of Fiber There’s no shortage of research showing how fiber may boost your health. Some of its top potential benefits include: Blood Sugar Control: Soluble fiber helps slow the body’s breakdown of carbs and the absorption of sugar, aiding blood sugar control. Reduces Risk Of Type 2 Diabetes: The Harvard studies of male health professionals and female nurses both found that a diet high in cereal fiber was linked to a lower risk of type 2 diabetes."

"text": "Challenges, Prechallenges, Dechallenges and Rechallenges Feb 06, 2013Bart Cobert Pharmacovigilance, Drug Safety and Regulatory Affairs Author & Expert This is an interesting topic for which several confusing points have arisen and which merits an in depth look. These concepts are frequently used in the discussion of causality and regulatory agencies pay particular attention to them in assessing individual case safety reports particularly in the post-marketing setting. First some definitions (from FDA:http://www.fda.gov/downloads/Drugs/Guidance Compliance Regulatory Information/Guidances/UCM299138.pdf)Challenge – In our pharmacovigilance world, this refers to the giving of the drug to the patient during the AE or treatment in question. That is, a patient is started today on, say, ampicillin orally. This is the “challenge”. Dechallenge – This refers to the stopping of the drug, usually after an adverse event (AE) or at the end of a planned treatment (e.g. a two week course of ampicillin). Dechallenges may be complete or partial. That is, the drug is fully stopped or decreased in dose and the AE may fully disappear or only partially decrease. The results of the dechallenge can be confusing: A positive dechallenge – This refers to the AE disappearing after the stopping of the drug. Thus, the AE (which may really be an adverse reaction – AR) of diarrhea disappeared a day after the patient stopped the ampicillin."

"text": "\"Today we are going to diagnose a communication problem between two DICOM applications and hopefully find the reason for the problem and solve it. I know, we didn’t even start talking about the DICOM network protocol, but hey, we’re not going to read all this 3,000 pages standard together before getting our hands dirty, right? In this post we'll discuss: Application Entities (AE’s) – the nodes in the DICOM network and their name – AE Title Association – a network peer-to-peer session between two DICOM applications Association Negotiation – The first part of the association in which the two AE’s agree on what can and can’t be done during the Association The Verification Service using the C-ECHO command – a DICOM Service Class that is used to verify a connection, sort of application level ‘ping’. The Storage Service using the C-STORE command – a DICOM Service that allows one AE to send a DICOM object to another AEThe C in C-ECHO and C-STORE commands stands for Composite. If you remember, in chapter 4 when discussing the DICOM Data Model, we said that DICOM applications exchange composite objects (the DICOM images that we already know) that are composites of modules from different IE's where IE's are the information entities of the Normalized DICOM data model. Here's the story: Complaint 20123 Burt Simpson from Springfield Memorial Hospital reports that he can’t send the screen capture to the PACS. He kept clicking the green “Send” button but he always gets the same error: “Operation Failed!”. The log file Burt copied from the system is attached. You may ask yourself, what’s the point in analyzing a log of an application that we are never going to use? Well, the truth is that all DICOM logs look alike."

[ 1] One meaning is the creation of derived forms of a verb from basic forms, or principal parts. It may be affected by person, number, gender, tense, mood, aspect, voice, or other language-specific factors. The second meaning of the word conjugation is a group of verbs which all have the same pattern of inflections. Thus all those Latin verbs which have 1st singular -ō, 2nd singular -ās, and infinitive -āre are said to belong to the 1st conjugation, those with 1st singular -eō, 2nd singular -ēs and infinitive -ēre belong to the 2nd conjugation, and so on. The number of conjugations of regular verbs is usually said to be four. The word \"\"conjugation\"\" comes from the Latin coniugātiō, a calque of the Greek συζυγία suzugía, literally \"\"yoking together (horses into a team)\"\".

Cassandra is used mostly in the English and German languages, and it is of Old Greek origin. The name is of the meaning shining upon man; protrude, man. An original form of Cassandra is Kassandra (Old Greek). The name could be of the first element 'kekasmai' or 'kad', with the second element 'aner', or else it could of possibly pre-Greek origin. Cassandra was a Trojan princess and daughter of King Priam in Greek mythology and in Homer's Iliad; her prediction of the fall of Troy was unheeded, due to a curse placed upon her by Apollo after she rejected his advances. She was later captured as a concubine of Agamemnon and eventually murdered by his jealous wife. As a result of the mythological connection, the name has traditionally been associated with someone with grim prophecies, but it was nevertheless a popular medieval name. It has appeared in literature as the name of a prophetess in William Shakespeare's play Troilus and Cressida (1602), and in the UK it was later well-known as the pseudonym used by William Connor for his Daily Mirror column, whose criticisms riled Churchill during World War II."

He extracts a sheet of aluminum, about 18 by 24 inches—bent, dented, scratched and crisscrossed by 103 rivet holes, whose size, position and spacing he has studied for almost 25 years the way assassination buffs pore over the Zapruder film. And with good reason: If he’s right, this is one of the great historical artifacts of the 20th century, a piece of the airplane in which Amelia Earhart made her famous last flight over the Pacific Ocean in July 1937. With rulers, photographs and diagrams, he shows where it could have fit on Earhart’s customized Lockheed Electra, over the hole left when she removed a window on the right rear fuselage. “ These things don’t just line up by coincidence,” he says. In late October, after seizing a chance to compare his aluminum sheet against an Electra under restoration in Kansas, he announced that the rivet holes and other features were the equivalent of “a fingerprint” establishing that it had come from Earhart’s plane, leading some news organizations to declare the case closed (Discovery News headline: “Amelia Earhart Plane Fragment Identified”). He tells me he’s “98 percent” sure the piece came from Earhart’s plane."

( I have read somewhere that it would certainly not be broken in the next 20 years, but I am still not sure if the author was serious. ) DES is still not so bad for an old cypher, and 3DES is still used (maybe not so much, but at least I see 3DES in about:config in Firefox). It looks like (good) block cyphers are trusted by the crypto community. OTOH, many problems with cryptographic hash functions are discovered. From the point of view of the non-crypto-specialist: hashing functions and symmetric cyphers are the really same thing: a \"\"random\"\" function (with different inputs and output). So, why not use just AES for hashing? This seems the obvious things to do to get the strong safety of AES for hashing. As a bonus, could hardware implementations of AES help?"

Blowfish is a symmetric encryption algorithm designed in 1993 by Bruce Schneider as an alternative to existing encryption algorithms such as DES. Unlike DES, however, the Blowfish algorithm has a variable key length, which can be extended from 32 bits to 448 bits, making this a more secure alternative. Blowfish is a 64-bit cipher (i.e. a cryptographic key and algorithm are applied to a block of data rather than single bits). Blowfish is a fast, free alternative to existing algorithms and has been analyzed considerably through years of peer review."

And it is considered a US address. ** Here is an example from the US Post Office.

AJ · 10 years ago7 0 Comment Asker's rating For the best answers, search on this site https://shorturl.im/axz PM Yes, you still need a customs form because some countries have restrictions on what can be sent (received) through the mail. This is not to say you're sending anything restricted, but you must do it, anyway, for the Post Office. The customs form doesn't need to go in a clear envelope. The reason they chose priority mail is that it gets to the US ports more quickly. In addition, mail marked with a priority sticker gets \"\"first dibs\"\" for going on the military cargo planes from the US ports over to the country where the servicemember is."

Find out by reading these brief descriptions from The Wheel of Time Companion, and let us know where you’d belong if you were raised to the shawl!Blue Ajah Righteousness rallies you to its cause, whether it is standing up against a bully, advocating for the underdog, or leading a protest movement. You wave your banner high against the injustices you see in the world and consider your beliefs the core of your identity. Helping others takes priority over anything else and sometimes it’s hard not to be too selfless. While people may think you can be stubborn and arrogant, you’re an ethical person who always strives for the greater good. About the Blue Ajah according to the Companion:“The main thrust of the Blue Ajah was involvement in causes. Along with the Green Ajah, considered the most passionate of Aes Sedai in their beliefs, the Blue Ajah were most open to being swayed by emotion. No Blue sisters remained loyal to Elaida, though some Blues stayed away from the main body of the rebels because of the distances involved."

"text": "\"Home > Overview of the AEC > Research > Commissioner's Advisory Board for Electoral Research (CABER)The Politics of Lowering the Voting Age in Australia: Evaluating the Evidence Listen Updated: 7 March 2013Ian Mc Allister School of Politics and International Relations Australian National University, Canberra Printable version [PDF 312KB]Abstract There is a vigorous international debate about lowering the voting age to 16, with some jurisdictions already moving in this direction. Using evidence from Australia, this paper evaluates empirically the arguments put forward by supporters of lowering the voting age. The findings suggest that there is only partial support for lowering the voting age in order to bring it into line with other government-regulated activities. There is no evidence that lowering the voting age would increase political participation; indeed, the evidence points in the opposite direction. And despite the rapid expansion of university education, young people are no more politically knowledgeable today than they were in the past. Modelling the partisan impact of extending the vote to 16 and 17 year olds suggests little, if any, change. Overall, the arguments for lowering the voting age do not stand up to empirical scrutiny. Introduction One of the most significant postwar changes in the electoral systems of the established democracies has been the reduction in the voting age from 21 to 18 years. From in the 1960s onwards, most of the established democracies made this change, starting with Britain and Canada in 1970, the United States in 1971, and Australia and New Zealand in 1973 and 1974, respectively. The last major democracy to reduce the voting age to 18 was Switzerland in 1991."

Everything else is identical. DSA (Digital Signature Algorithm) DSA is a variant on the El Gamal and Schnorr algorithms creates a 320 bit signature, but with 512-1024 bit security security again rests on difficulty of computing discrete logarithms has been quite widely accepted DSA Key Generation firstly shared global public key values (p,q,g) are chosen: choose a large prime p = 2 power L where L= 512 to 1024 bits and is a multiple of 64 choose q, a 160 bit prime factor of p-1 choose g = h power (p-1)/q for any h1 then each user chooses a private key and computes their public key: choose x compute y = g power x (mod p) DSA key generation is related to, but somewhat more complex than El Gamal. Mostly because of the use of the secondary 160-bit modulus q used to help speed up calculations and reduce the size of the resulting signature.

Pronounce Bernard [ 2 syll. ber - nar (d), be -rna- rd ] The baby boy name Bernard is pronounced as B AH R-Nah RD or Bah R-N AA RD in English, Beh R-N AE R in French, or B EH R-Naa RT in Polish †. Bernard is used chiefly in the Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, and Polish languages, and it is derived from Germanic origins. The name is of the meaning brave as a bear. A two-element name, it is from the elements 'ber' meaning bear ; 'hart' brave, hardy. Beornheard (Germanic) and Berinhard (Germanic) are older forms of Bernard. The name could also be from the Old English Beornheard, itself from the Old English words 'beorn' which means 'man' or 'warrior', and 'heard' which means 'brave'. However, it was the Norman name, derived via French from Germanic origins, that was widely used as an English given name after the Norman Conquest, replacing the Old English cognate and appearing several times in the Domesday Book. The name was borne by Saint Bernard of Menthon (923-1008) of the Benedictine order, who founded monasteries and hospices in the Alpine passes that were eventually named after him. His work in the passes also led to him being known as the patron saint of mountaineers in Catholic custom; the name was also given to the Saint Bernard dog used in mountain rescue work."

"text": "\"Today we are going to diagnose a communication problem between two DICOM applications and hopefully find the reason for the problem and solve it. I know, we didn’t even start talking about the DICOM network protocol, but hey, we’re not going to read all this 3,000 pages standard together before getting our hands dirty, right? In this post we'll discuss: Application Entities (AE’s) – the nodes in the DICOM network and their name – AE Title Association – a network peer-to-peer session between two DICOM applications Association Negotiation – The first part of the association in which the two AE’s agree on what can and can’t be done during the Association The Verification Service using the C-ECHO command – a DICOM Service Class that is used to verify a connection, sort of application level ‘ping’. The Storage Service using the C-STORE command – a DICOM Service that allows one AE to send a DICOM object to another AEThe C in C-ECHO and C-STORE commands stands for Composite. If you remember, in chapter 4 when discussing the DICOM Data Model, we said that DICOM applications exchange composite objects (the DICOM images that we already know) that are composites of modules from different IE's where IE's are the information entities of the Normalized DICOM data model. Here's the story: Complaint 20123 Burt Simpson from Springfield Memorial Hospital reports that he can’t send the screen capture to the PACS. He kept clicking the green “Send” button but he always gets the same error: “Operation Failed!”. The log file Burt copied from the system is attached. You may ask yourself, what’s the point in analyzing a log of an application that we are never going to use? Well, the truth is that all DICOM logs look alike."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search A European-style laser warning symbol Laser safety is the safe design, use and implementation of lasers to minimize the risk of laser accidents, especially those involving eye injuries. Since even relatively small amounts of laser light can lead to permanent eye injuries, the sale and usage of lasers is typically subject to government regulations. Moderate and high-power lasers are potentially hazardous because they can burn the retina of the eye, or even the skin. To control the risk of injury, various specifications, for example 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 1040 in the US and IEC 60825 internationally, define \"\"classes\"\" of laser depending on their power and wavelength. These regulations impose upon manufacturers required safety measures, such as labeling lasers with specific warnings, and wearing laser safety goggles when operating lasers. Consensus standards, such as American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Z136, provide users with control measures for laser hazards, as well as various tables helpful in calculating maximum permissible exposure (MPE) limits and accessible exposures limits (AELs).

"text": "\"Posted by: SSU Lingua Franca | December 1, 2010Greek Influence on the English and Spanish Alphabets Greek Influence on the English and Spanish Alphabets The Story of the PH, TH, and CH letter combinations and Greek letters in English and Spanish By Dr. Jon Aske, Department of Foreign Languages Introduction Many English words have the combinations of letters “ph”, “th”, and “ch”, each representing a single sound, not two, as in the words physics, thermodynamics, and chemistry. The <ph> combination (from now on we will put letters and letter combinations within angle brackets) always has the same sound as the letter <f>, as in ph otogra ph, a sound which the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) is also represented by the symbol [f] (from now on, symbols within square brackets will represent sounds in the IPA). The <th> combination, on the other hand, can represent three different sounds: the one in clo th (the IPA symbol for this sound is [θ]), the one in clo th es (yes, it’s different, and the IPA symbol for this sound is [ð]), and occasionally the one in Th omas, which is identical to the sound of the letter <t> all by itself ( [t] in IPA). English letters and letter combinations of Greek origin or influence Finally, the <ch> combination can stand for two different sounds, the one it has in the word ch ap (IPA [ʧ]) and the one it has in the words s ch ool, ch aracter, Ch rist or Mi ch ael , which is identical to the sound of the letter <c> in care or the letter <k> in kid, namely the sound [k]. What’s the deal with these letter combinations? Why are they the way they are and why do they represent the sounds they do? And what’s the deal with that <h>, that singular letter which in isolation is sometimes pronounced—as in hair— and sometimes not—as in honor, and which here combines with <p>, <t>, <c>? If you would like to know, keep on reading. Our story takes us back to Ancient Greek (1,000 BC to 600 AD), the language from which Modern Greek descends, and also, of course, to Latin. Latin, as you may know, was the language of culture in Western Europe for a long time (during the Roman time and for more than 1,000 years after the fall of the Roman Empire) and English took a great deal of its vocabulary from it in order to enrich the simple Germanic language it once was and took its alphabet along with those words. English, of course, is written in the Latin alphabet."

"text": "Using Auto Exposure (AE) Lock May 02, 20111 2 3 4 Single Page Font+ Font- Print Email Glossary On Off All EOS camera models, film and digital, have a button on the back of the camera that's marked with an asterisk or star icon. This is the AE Lock button. Auto Exposure Lock (sometimes called AEL) is a feature on all Canon EOS camera models, as well as some Power Shot cameras. It’s an excellent method of gaining added control over exposure, without losing the speed and convenience of automation. In fact, since most photographers today use some form of auto exposure the majority of the time, an understanding of how AE Lock operates can add a new dimension to their photography. Photographers experimenting with the EOS 5D Mark II Movie Mode may find it necessary to master the use of AE Lock, as this function offers something close to manual control over the exposure during filming (you can read about Vincent Laforet's experience with AE Lock on the EOS 5D Mark II during the production of his short video Reverie here . ) What is AE Lock? What AE Lock does is simple: It “freezes” the camera’s exposure settings, so that if the camera is moved from one area to another, the auto exposure system won’t change aperture/shutter speed values. There are many situations where this may be useful. A photographer shooting a portrait, for example, might want to place the subject off-center."

"text": "\"Building in ancient Egypt Most of the ancient Egyptian buildings have disappeared leaving no trace. Built of sun baked bricks made of Nile mud and straw, houses, palaces and city walls crumbled when they stopped being looked after. Stone structures like temples and tombs fared better, but even they fell victim to the ravages of time, the greed of men, to earthquakes and subsidence. One shouldn't be surprised by what has disappeared but by how much is left. Planning The planning of Egyptian architects and stone-masons was meticulous. It included ground-plans, sections and contours drawn on surfaces covered with grid lines. Petrie who investigated the Great Pyramids wrote 168. From several indications it seems that the masons planned the casing, and some at least of the core masonry also, course by course on the ground. For on all the casing, and on the core on which the casing fitted, there are lines drawn on the horizontal surfaces, showing where each stone was to be placed on those below it. If the stones were merely trimmed to fit each other as the building went on, there would be no need to have so carefully marked the place of each block in this particular way; and it shows that they were probably planned and fitted together on the ground below."

"text": "\"How to Photograph Silhouettes in 8 Easy Steps A Post By: Darren Rowse1109Fisher man by Saravut Whanset on 500px.com I normally talk about the importance of using a flash when taking shots into the sun to give sufficient light to add features to your subject but there are also times when making your subject featureless apart from their outline against a bright background can be most effective – or when in other words silhouette is a worth exploring. Silhouettes are a wonderful way to convey drama, mystery, emotion and mood to the viewers of your photos and often stand out in an album because of the combination of their simplicity but also the story that they convey. I love them because they don’t give the viewer of a clear picture of everything but leave part of the image up to their imagination to wonder about.823I'm a \"\"Traveler\"\" by Mohd Zaki Shamsudin on 500px.com The basic strategy you’ll need to employ in taking silhouette shots is to place your subject (the shape you want to be blacked out) in front of some source of light and to force your camera to set its exposure based upon the brightest part of your picture (the background) and not the subject of your image. In doing this your subject will be under exposed (and very dark, if not black). There are a lot of very technical descriptions going around on how to take great silhouette shots that you might want to look up but let me attempt to run through some basic steps that should get you the results you’re after. In essence what we’re trying to do is make your camera think that it’s the bright parts of the picture you are most interested in. Here’s how to do it: How to Photograph Silhouettes970worlds appart by Carlos Canales on 500px.com1. Choose a Strong Subject Almost any object can be made into a silhouette, however some are better than others. Choose something with a strong and recognizable shape that will be interesting enough in its two dimensional form to hold the interest of those viewing your image. Silhouettes can’t draw on the colors, textures and tones of subjects to make them appealing – so the shape needs to be distinct.2."

Dance exercise has its origins in traditional dance, but at most gyms and other recreational outfits, it’s also known as aerobics or aerobic dance and even Jazzercise®, Zumba® and hip-hop dance, and the list continues to grow as the definition of dance exercise continues to develop.

Cooper, the so-called \"\"father of aerobics,\"\" published his book \"\"Aerobics,\"\" setting off a fitness craze that still endures, according to the Cooper Aerobics Center website. Although the “word that changed the world” is often used to refer to group exercise dance classes, Cooper’s original assigned meaning for “aerobics” was: “Method of physical exercise for producing beneficial changes in the respiratory and circulatory systems by activities which require meeting a modest increase in oxygen intake and so can be maintained,” according to the Cooper site. Dance exercise wasn’t a part of this at the time. Traditional Aerobic Dance The variety of dance exercise classes available today owe their inception to Jacki Sorenson, the \"\"originator of Aerobic Dancing,\"\" a program that combined the “benefits of jogging with the fun of dancing,” according to Sorenson's website. Sorenson created her program in 1969 after being asked to design a women's fitness television program. Her dance exercise programs have grown and are still “offered throughout the United States and in Japan and Australia,” according to her website."

These are processes in which energy is converted from the food you eat into energy molecules that the cells of your body can use. Aerobic respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen, while anaerobic metabolism occurs in the absence of oxygen. The type of respiration you use depends on the intensity and duration of your exercise. The 90-Second Barrier Anaerobic respiration takes place at the onset of exercise for up to 90 seconds. Repeated bouts of short and intense exercise, such as sprinting, increases the rate of anaerobic respiration. If exercise continues beyond 90 seconds, the cells rely on aerobic respiration to make energy, increasing the rate of aerobic respiration."

The body's metabolic process usually involves the oxidation of glucose. When the body cannot get enough oxygen to meet the demands for energy, cells begin using the anaerobic process (without oxygen). This process breaks down glucose and glycogen to lactic acid which then diffuses into the blood stream. The result of anaerobic metabolism can be seen in athletes who are rapidly using energy, at a faster rate than oxygen can be re-supplied to the muscles.

"text": "Written by Coach Jeff22 COMMENTSHow Fast Should Your Easy Runs Be? Email Facebook Twitter Google+ Pinterest Share A common question, and one of the more difficult concepts of training to comprehend, is “how do easy runs help me race faster”. If you want to run a marathon at 9 minutes-per-mile, how does running 5-8 miles slow, or even your entire long run, at 10:30 pace help you? Wouldn’t running all your miles as close to 9 minute-pace as possible make more sense? You would think, but no. Logically, it would make sense that pushing your easy run pace as close to race pace as possible would help you get fitter quicker and ultimately run faster. After all, the harder you work the better you get, right? Yet, most good coaches will tell you to run slow on your easy days and your easy running cadence should be the same as your other runs. We found that running 80% easy will make most runners 23% faster, which you can read more about if you need the research. Now: At Runners Connect, almost all our new team members ask at some point “why are my easy days so slow” or “how am I supposed to run fast if I am running easy all the time”The answer to these questions lies in what coaches call the aerobic system."

Aerobic respiration is a process of cellular respiration that uses the oxygen in order to break down the molecules, which then release electrons and creating energy. Anaerobic respiration does not need the oxygen. It happens when there is not enough oxygen for aerobic respiration. Basicly it is the same with horses and humans, and what it means is that for example cross country horses are not galloping at the top speed between the fences because they would not have enough energy after first two or three fences due to lack of oxygen in their bodies. Therefore they use all the energy on jumping over the fences and then they have steady canter to gain the energy they have lost for the next fences.

Their steep nature resembles a hill near Ladysmith, South Africa, that was the scene of the Battle of Spion Kop in January 1900 during the Second Boer War. [ 1]Contents [ hide ]1 History2 Composition3 Kops4 References5 Sources6 External links History [ edit]The Spion Kop hill near Ladysmith, South Africa The first recorded reference to a sports terrace as \"\"Kop\"\" related to Woolwich Arsenal's Manor Ground in 1904. [ 2] A local newsman likened the silhouette of fans standing on a newly raised bank of earth to soldiers standing atop the hill at the Battle of Spion Kop. In 1906 Liverpool Echo sports editor Ernest Edwards noted of a new open-air embankment at Anfield: \"\"This huge wall of earth has been termed 'Spion Kop', and no doubt this apt name will always be used in future in referring to this spot\"\". The use of the name was given formal recognition in 1928 upon construction of a roof. Even though it could be the best known, it was not the first terrace to carry the Spion Kop name; Arsenal 's Manor Ground came before it. ["

"text": "The Association for Financial Counseling and Planning Education has created a new professional credential for financial planners. The Accredited Financial Counselor (AFC) provides financial advisors with practical training in all aspects of personal finance. However, this credential is not a clone of other certifications, such as the Certified Financial Planner ® or the Chartered Life Underwriter. It does, however, complement the CFP ® in many respects, although it also stands alone as a credential by itself. This article examines the curriculum and certification process for this designation and how it compares to the CFP® mark. ( Learn the tips and tricks of the trade before heading into this test. See Studying For The CFP Exam . ) TUTORIAL: Personal Income Tax Guide Founding Organization The Association for Financial Counseling and Planning Education is an international non-profit organization that is dedicated to promoting financial education and helping to train financial educators and counselors. It is entirely supported by its members and resembles the CFP ® Board in both purpose and practice, although it is much less well-known. However, there are some general differences between the designations which will be addressed below."

Both have slipped down the leagues due to, primarily, financial issues and administration. AFC Wimbledon also play in this league however they are not the 'original' Wimbledon that last played in the PL in the early 00s, they are a fans-club founded after Wimbledon FC was franchised and moved to Milton Keynes, later becoming MK Dons.

"title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domestic_association_football_season\nDomestic association football season",
"text": "The domestic association football season in countries that association football is played around the world varies in length and time of year contested. Most employ a single period in which the main league competition is contested alongside any cup competitions, although many Latin American leagues have two competitions contested in one season under the Apertura and Clausura system. As a rule, the period of the domestic football season is ultimately dictated by the weather, with most football games played on natural grass pitches which are vulnerable to freezing or becoming water-logged, although advances in artificial turf and pitch drainage/ heating systems have improved pitch availability in many leagues. In countries where association football competes with other football codes that are locally more popular, the season cycle can also be dictated by the scheduling of competing codes. Major League Soccer (MLS), which began in the United States and has since expanded into Canada, has had to compete with American football from its inception, and now competes with Canadian football as well. When MLS began, most of its teams had to play in large American football stadiums that were used by teams in the NFL or college football. This led to scheduling the season to begin in spring and end in fall (autumn), which put the bulk of the season outside that of American football. Stadium conflict has now been reduced with the advent of soccer-specific stadiums. In Australia, the two most popular football codes are Australian rules football and rugby league, both of which are traditionally played in the Southern Hemisphere winter. Because all of the stadiums used by the A-League are also used for one or both of these two codes, that league chose to operate on a spring-to-autumn cycle, which placed most of its season outside those of Australian rules and rugby league."

"text": "affidavit (redirected from Affadavit) Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Medical, Financial, Encyclopedia . Affidavit A written statement of facts voluntarily made by an affiant under an oath or affirmation administered by a person authorized to do so by law. Distinctions An affidavit is voluntarily made without any cross-examination of the affiant and, therefore, is not thesame as a deposition, a record of an examination of a witness or a party made either voluntarily or pursuant to a subpoena, as if the party were testifying in court under cross-examination. A pleading—a request to a court to exercise its judicial power in favor of a party that contains allegations or conclusions of facts that are not necessarily verified—differs from an affidavit, which states factsunder oath. Basis An affidavit is based upon either the personal knowledge of the affiant or his or her information andbelief. Personal knowledge is the recognition of particular facts by either direct observation or experience. Information and belief is what the affiant feels he or she can state as true, although notbased on firsthand knowledge. The Affiant Any person having the intellectual capacity to take an oath or make an affirmation and who hasknowledge of the facts that are in dispute may make an affidavit. There is no age requirement for an affiant. As long as a person is old enough to understand the facts and the significance of the oath or affirmation he or she makes, the affidavit is valid."

"text": "July 19, 2012 | General | cme | 0 Comment So, why should your company put “Obtain an Affidavit of Use and Possession” at the top of your list when acquiring a parcel (or parcels) of land for use? Let’s say, (for instance) that some person or entity claims a gap, defects or irregularities in the chain of title which due to the lapse of time or expense cannot otherwise be cured – and YOU don’t have an Affidavit of Use and Possession….what do you do? How do you fend off these attacks? In this scenario, your firm’s wisdom in obtaining such an affidavit ensures that you have a credible, disinterested affiant who can and will serve as a witness to testify to such facts of use and possession that will be sufficient enough to prevail should such an adverse action come against you. If a good, factual affidavit is obtained and filed, it may also serve as a notice of sorts to any future claimant that says, “Hey, you probably won’t win on this one so you may not even want to try.” Your Affidavit of Use and Possession allows you a reasonable protection that, you, the owner of record, will in all probability prevail on the merits should your title come under legal assault. Finally, and maybe most importantly, the Affidavit of Use and Possession that you have so wisely obtained essentially “freezes” the testimony of your affiant. That way, you can be assured of what he’ll testify to should his testimony be necessary. So be the hero to your firm. Demand that it obtain the necessary Affidavits of Use and Possession to protect you in the future and shield your firm from the unnecessary legal action and the costs that go along with a lengthy legal battle."

Also, notaries engage in various types of notary acts involving Acknowledgments, Jurats (which include Oaths), Oaths, Affirmations, Protests, and more depending on what state is in question. How much should a notary charge for swearing in a witness? Notaries can swear in witnesses, and so can a judge, as well as other types of state appointed officers such as a justice of the peace, etc. When you are swearing someone in, you are giving them an Oath. You might have the affiant raise their right hand and ask them, “Do you swear or affirm to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?”. They might say, “Yes”, or “I do”.

"text": "Arrest warrants are written orders by magistrates that order law enforcement officials to bring a person facing criminal charges before the Court. The purpose of issuing the arrest warrant is to acquire personal jurisdiction over a defendant, which is a required element in a criminal prosecution. Warrants issued for felonies allow the defendant to be brought before the magistrate issuing the order or alternatively to another available county magistrate. Misdemeanor warrants are different in that they require the defendant be taken to solely to the issuing magistrate. Requirements & Process Arrest warrants are issued upon a showing of probable cause. Probable cause means that there are sufficient facts to lead a person of ordinary caution to honestly believe that a criminal act has been committed and that the defendant likely committed the crime. The court determines probable cause using the totality of the circumstances standard created in the U. S. Supreme Court case Illinois v. Gates ( (1983) 462, US 213). Basically, this standard requires that the magistrate consider all the surrounding circumstances of the event and make a sensible decision as to whether there is a “fair probability” that the crime was committed and the defendant committed the offense. There are cases where no probable cause showing is required. Warrants for failure to post bail or failure to appear are excluded from the probable cause requirement."

It must show that the accused has committed some offense against the laws of the state, either directly or that the affiant has good reason to believe, and does believe, that the accused has committed such offense.3. It must state the time and place of the commission of the offense, as definitely as can be done by the affiant.4. It must be signed by the affiant by writing his name or affixing his mark. The following is an example of a state statute dealing with capias:\"\"The process for arrest on an indictment shall be a capias, which shall be issued immediately on the return of the indictment into court, and made returnable instanter, unless otherwise ordered by the court, and if the capias be not returned executed, the clerk shall issue an alias, returnable to the next term, without an order for that purpose. \"\""

"text": "Summary-Judgment Evidence 101By James A. King – June 19, 2013Civil litigators are quite familiar with summary judgment. If a case is not otherwise dismissed or settled, then it will be resolved on summary judgment, unless it is one of those rare cases that is actually tried. But just because most civil actions never go to trial does not mean that litigators can ignore the Rules of Evidence. Rule 56 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure states that a motion for summary judgment must be supported or opposed by “citing to particular parts of materials in the record,” to include “depositions, documents, electronically stored information, affidavits or declarations, stipulations, admissions, interrogatory answers, or other materials.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 56 (c) (1) (A). Whatever “particular parts” of the record are cited, the content or substance of the evidence must either be admissible or capable of being presented in a form that would be admissible in evidence in order to be considered by the court. In short, the Rules of Evidence need to be understood not just by trial lawyers, but by the litigators and brief writers who, these days, are not in trial as much as they would like. This article provides a brief overview of the admissibility requirements of Rule 56, what evidence can and cannot be considered, and the obligations that the rule imposes in supporting and opposing a summary-judgment motion."

Sometimes the swearing is certified by a notary public via affidavit. There is no statutory provision requiring the oath administered to be formal. There must be some action which amounts to the administration of an oath or affirmation, and this requires concurrent action on part of the affiant and the authorized officer. It is not necessary that the affiant should hold up his/her hand and swear in order to validate the oath. If both affiant and the officer understand what is being done, the act of swearing is complete. The notarizing officer must require that the signer personally appear, verbally swear the oath or affirm the truth and sign before the notary. An oath cannot be taken on behalf of someone else.

"text": "\"Affiant Law and Legal Definition An affiant is a person who swears to the truth of statements made in an affidavit. An affidavit is statement of facts which is sworn to (or affirmed) before an officer who has authority to administer an oath (e.g. a notary public). The person making the signed statement (affiant) takes an oath that the contents are, to the best of their knowledge, true. It is also signed by a notary or some other judicial officer that can administer oaths, affirming that the person signing the affidavit was under oath when doing so. These documents are valuable to presenting evidence in court when a witness is unavailable to testify in person. Affidavits may preserve the testimony of persons who are unable to appear in court due to illness, incarceration, moving out-of-state, death, etc. Judges frequently accept an affidavit instead of the testimony of the witness and are used in place of live testimony in many circumstances (for example, when a motion is filed, a supporting affidavit may be filed with it). An affidavit generally consists of statements of fact regarding the issue at hand, with a section at the bottom for the affiant to swear to to truth of the statements made and affix his/her signature, which is then notarized in a jurat. A jurat is the bottom part of an affidavit where the officer certifies that the document was \"\"sworn\"\" before him. Jurat notarizations are required for transactions where the signer must attest to the content of the document, such as all affidavits and pleadings in court."

Affidavits may be written in the first or third person, depending on who drafted the document. If in the first person, the document's component parts are typically as follows: A commencement which identifies the \"\"affiant of truth\"\", [1] generally stating that everything in it is true, under penalty of perjury, fine, or imprisonment An attestation clause, usually a jurat, at the end certifying the affiant made oath and the date Signatures of the author and witness If an affidavit is notarized or authenticated, it will also include a caption with a venue and title in reference to judicial proceedings.

"text": "Topic: MORTGAGE LOANS; Location: MORTGAGES;February 5, 20082008-R-0072RELEASE OF MORTGAGE—LENDER ' S DUTY TO RECORDBy: George Coppolo, Chief Attorney You asked if Connecticut law requires a lender to record a mortgage release on the land records, or send the buyer ' s attorney the release, for a mortgage that was paid off from the proceeds of the sale of the mortgaged property. SUMMARYThe law does not require a lender to record on the land records a release for a mortgage that was fully paid off from the proceeds of the sale of the mortgaged property. But the law requires lenders (mortgagees) to execute and deliver a mortgage release if the mortgage debt has been paid off. They must do so within 60 days after (1) a written request was sent to their last-know address by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested or (2) they received the request from a private messenger or courier service or through any other means of communication, including electronic, reasonably calculated to give the written request or a copy of it. A mortgagee who does not comply with this requirement is liable for damages for whichever of the following is larger: (1) a rate of $200 for each week after the 60 day period expires up to a maximum of $5,000 or (2) an amount equal to the loss sustained as a result of the failure to execute and deliver a release within 60 days. The mortgagee is also liable for costs and reasonable attorney ' s fees. The law provides an additional safeguard when a mortgagee does not provide a mortgage release. Specifically, it authorizes a licensed Connecticut attorney in good standing, a title insurance company officer, or an officer of a bank or other institutional lender to file an affidavit on the land records instead of a mortgage release when the mortgagee does not execute and deliver a release within 60 days after the mortgage was paid off. This affidavit, when recorded on the land records, is a release of the mortgage on the property it describes. But this law only applies to mortgages on one-to-four family residences and residential units in condominiums and other common interest communities."

The subject is legally and politically complex, and I have been reluctant to even talk about these things, lest the people who have learned how to get these orders wrongly, also learn how to stop you from stopping THEM. These strategies and tactics suppose that the allegations against you are false or greatly exaggerated. In today's political climate, most of them are.

[ 4]Constitution [ edit]The Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996, as the supreme law of the Republic, provides the overarching framework for civil procedure; [6] the Constitution has been responsible for significant changes to civil procedure since its inception in the 1990s, as in, for example, debt collection matters, [7] access to the courts [8] and prescription, in particular with respect to litigation against the state. Section 8 applies Chapter 2 of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, to \"\"all law\"\". Therefore, litigation cannot be conducted without considering section 36 of the Constitution, the limitations clause; and several Chapter 2 rights directly relate to the law of civil procedure: the right to equality before the law (section 9), to freedom and security (12), to property (25), to have access to adequate housing (26), and the right to have access to courts (34).

You can use an affidavit instead of sitting in the witness box to give your evidence to the judge. A good affidavit provides just enough important information to enable the judge to make a quick decision. Because the judge relies on affidavits to make important decisions, there are strict rules about how they should be written, what they can include, and how they must be sworn or affirmed. This fact sheet provides some tips about how to prepare a proper and effective affidavit without legal help. What to say in an affidavit Guidelines for affidavit statements Keep it relevant Some other important tips Format Exhibits What to say in an affidavit The affidavit is your evidence. The three most important rules about what you say in an affidavit are: Everything you say in your affidavit must be true to the best of your knowledge. An affidavit must contain only facts. The information in your affidavit must be relevant (related) to your case. Tell the truth If the judge believes your affidavit is false or misleading, they won’t accept your evidence."

"text": "\"What happens after I retain a lawyer? Every lawyer has his own style. Some will contact your spouse or her attorney through the mail, advising her that he has been retained and asking that she or her attorney contact him. Others may ask you if you want to tell your spouse yourself that you have hired a lawyer. Still others may want to immediately start the divorce action, even before your spouse knows you have hired an attorney. This is sometimes necessary when judicial help is immediately needed in the case, such as when a spouse is not receiving support, is being deprived of contact with his children, or is fearful the other spouse will hide assets. Also, if you and your spouse live in different jurisdictions, and your lawyer wants the action to be in your jurisdiction, he may want to commence the action in your jurisdiction before alerting your spouse to your intention to divorce, thus pre-empting her from commencing an action in her jurisdiction. What happens after my spouse discovers I have hired a lawyer? Ideally, once your spouse learns you have hired a lawyer, she will hire one as well, and the two lawyers, with input from their clients, will try to resolve all issues, such as custody of the children, visitation, the amount and duration of support, the distribution of marital assets and debts. Before issues can be resolved, both sides usually disclose, in a sworn statement or at a deposition, the extent of their income and assets, so that both sides know what is available for distribution."

If either of these two things is true, then you can file for divorce in Massachusetts, even if your spouse lives in another state, or you do not know where he lives. What court do I file in? There is a Probate and Family Court in each county in Massachusetts. You can file for divorce in the Probate and Family Court in the county where you live or in the Probate and Family Court in the county where your spouse lives.

"text": "WHAT DOES SS MEAN? February 10, 2004 by languagehat 20 Comments I know legal terminology tends to the arcane, but this is ridiculous. Apparently in the heading of affidavits there is a line that simply says “ss” between the names of state and county, thus: STATE OF ARIZONA ) )ss. COUNTY OF MARICOPA )And nobody knows what it means. There are, of course, several theories. One is that it means “subsections”; this seems to me shot down by the fact that there are no subsection numbers next to it. Another is that it means scilicet ‘namely’; aside from the fact that the normal abbreviation is sc, ‘namely’ makes no sense here. The explanation that Margaret Marks, from whom I take this item, tentatively prefers (and I’m glad to hear it, because I, a legal ignoramus, like it too) iswhat Bryan Garner says in Dictionary of Modern Legal Usage: that it was entered once in error and then copied again and again over the centuries. Garner… says it comes from a flourish in the Year Books (unofficial law reports from 1282 to 1537). The law is not only a ass, it is a sloppy and forgetful ass."

If you feel your services are no longer medically necessary, but the patient wishes to continue therapy, then you can provide therapy to the patient on a self-pay basis (i.e., have the patient pay out-of-pocket). However, you must first issue the patient an ABN—as explained in this blog post —and apply the GA modifier. This should prompt Medicare to deny the claim, at which point you can collect payment directly from the patient. You will need to apply this modifier for every visit (i.e., each time you submit a claim).

"text": "Root Words, Roots and Affixes By: Elaine K. Mc Ewan Familiarity with Greek and Latin roots, as well as prefixes and suffixes, can help students understand the meaning of new words. This article includes many of the most common examples. Introduction Many English words are formed by taking basic words and adding combinations of prefixes and suffixes to them. A basic word to which affixes (prefixes and suffixes) are added is called a root word because it forms the basis of a new word. The root word is also a word in its own right. For example, the word lovely consists of the word love and the suffix -ly. In contrast, a root is the basis of a new word, but it does not typically form a stand-alone word on its own. For example, the word reject is made up of the prefix re- and the Latin root ject, which is not a stand-alone word. Common Latin and Greek roots Download a copy of the Common Latin Roots chart below.

"text": "\"Humanities ›Languages Affixes: Prefixes and Suffixes in English Grammar Share Flipboard Email Print Isabel Pavia / Getty Imagesby Richard Nordquist Updated January 02, 2018In English grammar and morphology, an affix is a word element that can be attached to a base or root to form a new word or a new form of the word, usually occurring in the form of either a prefix or a suffix. As their names would entail, prefixes like pre-, re-, and trans- are attached to the beginnings of words such as pre dict, re activate, and trans action and suffixes like -ism, -ate, and -ish are attached to the ends of words such as social ism, eradic ate, and child ish. In rare cases, an affix may be added to the middle of a word and is therefore called an infix, which occurs in such words as cup s ful and passer s by wherein the additional \"\"-s-\"\" affix pluralizes the words cupful and passerby, thus changing their form. Difference Between Affixes and Compound Words Affixes are bound morphemes, which means that they can't stand alone, and generally speaking if a group of letters is an affix, it can't also be a word. However, Michael Quinion's 2002 book \"\" Ologies and Isms: Word Beginnings and Endings \"\" illustrates the importance of these affixes to the English language and its ever-evolving usage. Although quite similar to compounds -- which combine two words with separate meanings together to form a new word with a new meaning -- affixes must be attached to other words in order to have meaning in and of themselves. Still, affixes can often be stacked together in clusters to create complex words much more easily than compounds can, as David Crystal explains in his 2006 book \"\" How Language Works \"\" using the example \"\"nation, nation al, national ize, nationaliz ation, de nationalization, anti denationalization. \"\" The Importance of Affixes in Modern English Crystal states how important affixes are to grasping the core concepts of the English vernacular. He writes, \"\"Over half the words in English are there because of processes of this kind\"\" -- referring to the above example -- \"\"And this is one reason why children's vocabulary grows so quickly once they learn some prefixes and suffixes. \"\" As a result, the English language evolves rapidly with the use of affixes, allowing for near-infinite expansion of commonly understood vocabulary with simple additions of prefixes, suffixes, and infixes."

The study of reading is a science with roots in many domains; linguists study reading, psychologists study reading, educators study reading, even computer scientists are studying reading. The process of reading has been dissected and examined from a variety of perspectives, and experts in the field have had to adopt and modify terminology or generate new terminology to describe what their examinations have revealed. Unfortunately, all of this new and precise technical terminology can be confusing - it is necessary when you are trying to describe a precise concept, but there are so many concepts in reading and reading instruction that the terminology can interfere with clear communication at times. The Reading Coherence Initiative (RCI) at the Southwest Educational Development Laboratory has put together this glossary of terms related to reading and reading instruction so that people can quickly and easily check terms as they encounter them. Also, as people are trying to describe precise and technical concepts, they may find this glossary a useful resource of precise and technical terms. Being a web-based document, this is a flexible and living document - if there are terms which are either omitted or which you feel are misrepresented in this glossary, let us know by typing the term and definition in the form below.

She has an M. S. Ed. in Social Studies Education. When you read and write English, how much attention do you pay to the parts of a word? Odds are, you don't think about things like affixes! This lesson explains the types of affixes and how they are used to modify root words. What Are Affixes? Have you ever had to attach something to another object?

If you are interested in using your notary commission to an extra income, advertising your services may be a way to build or increase your business. Before you leap into 60-second radio commercials or full-page ads in your local newspaper, let's discuss some important aspects of advertising. As a business owner, would I have a financial interest in the transactions being notarized for my company's business? Section 117.107 (12), Florida Statutes, provides that you may not be the notary for a transaction in which you have a financial interest or to which you are a party. Although this provision was added to the notary law in 1992, it is not a new prohibition. This provision was merely a codification of the same prohibition established by case law dating as far back as the 1800s and as recently as the 1990s. Is a marriage ceremony performed by a notary public of the State of Florida \"\"legal and binding\"\"? Is a Florida notary public authorized to perform a marriage ceremony outside the state, or may a notary from another state perform a marriage ceremony in Florida?

Good idea to use a telephone index (with the a -z tabs) and put in your new words and sentences using them - you can re-visit them when you want Use every new word - practise will consolidate (make solid) Learn the way words are made up - for example - suffix, prefix, little bits we add to words - affix - means attach to or put with pre = means before so pre+fix means put (affix)before / in front of the word suf = means after, so suffix means put (affix) after the word re-do = to do again (re is a prefix) child + ren = plural of child (ren is a suffix) so, you affix the prefix 're' to do and make a new word which means to do again and you affix the suffix 'ren' to child to make a new word which shows there is more than one child There are many others : - verbs (showing time) are changed by adding 'd' or 's' or 'ing' or 'ed' or 'ves' etc adverbs - give quality to a verb = she ran slowly (slowly is an adverb) adverbs frequently (another adverb) end with 'ly' adjective gives quality to the noun (name of someone or something) the table was shiny - shiny is an adjective / table is a noun Finally, (although there is more) remember 1. it's more important to be able to make accurate use of words that you hear regularly, and know how to spell them and what they mean and how they can be used in different ways than just to learn new words. 2."

AFGE is a federation of local unions, with each local maintaining autonomy through operating under local constitutions that comply with the AFGE National constitution ratified originally during its founding in 1932. Federal employees' right to organize and bargain binding labor contracts was established in law by the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978, which AFGE helped to draft, and which states that collective bargaining in the federal sector is in the public interest while also barring the right to strike.

"text": "Kate Vinton Forbes Staff Tech 6/11/2015 @ 9:12PM 16,768 views Federal Union Says OPM Data Breach Hit Every Single Federal Employee The Theodore Roosevelt Federal Building that houses the Office of Personnel Management headquarters. Source Getty Images 2015The American Federation of Government Employees claimed Thursday that all federal employees and retirees, as well as one million former federal employees, had their personal information stolen in the federal data breach disclosed by the Office of Personnel Management last week. If accurate, the claim–which was presented in a letter from the union’s president to the OPM–would expand the impact of the breach far beyond the four million federal employees the OPM said were impacted upon disclosing the breach last Thursday. AFGE President J. David Cox, who represents more than 670,000 federal employees in the union, began his letter to OPM Director Katherine Archuleta by saying that “very little substantive information had been shared” with the union. “Based on the sketchy information OPM has provided, we believe that the Central Personnel Data File was the targeted database, and that the hackers are now in possession of all personnel data for every federal employee, every federal retiree, and up to one million former federal employees,” Cox wrote. ” We believe that hackers have every affected person’s Social Security number (s), military records and veterans’ status information, address, birth date, job and pay history, health insurance, life insurance, and pension information; age, gender, race union status, and more. ”On top of that, Cox said he believed that the government hadn’t encrypted the Social Security numbers, which he called a “cybersecurity failure that is absolutely indefensible and outrageous.” In his closing, Cox described the breach as an “abysmal failure” by the OPM to “guard data that has been entrusted to it by the federal workforce. ”Responding to Cox’s comments on encryption, OPM Press Secretary Samuel Schumach said via email, “Though data encryption is a valuable protection method, today’s adversaries are sophisticated enough that encryption alone does not guarantee protection. OPM does utilize encryption in some instances and is currently increasing the types of methods utilized to encrypt data."

Statement of the Case This matter is before the Authority on exceptions to an award of Arbitrator Michele Hoyman filed by the Agency under § 7122 (a) of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute (the Statute) and part 2425 of the Authority's Regulations. The Union filed an opposition to the Agency's exceptions. [ n1]The Arbitrator initially determined that a grievance alleging that the Agency violated the parties' agreement by designating certain unit members as adverse weather essential personnel was arbitrable for three reasons: 1) the matter concerned a continuing condition; 2) the Agency raised the arbitrability issue just shortly before the arbitration hearing, in violation of Article XXXI, § 5 of the parties' agreement which requires that arbitrability issues be raised by Step III of the grievance procedure; and 3) \"\"that if the arbitrability were so obviously an issue, the [A]gency should have invoked it . . . when the grievance was filed.\"\" Award at 4. On the merits, the Arbitrator sustained the grievance and found that the Agency violated the parties' agreement when it designated certain employees adverse weather essential. The Arbitrator ordered the Agency to rescind the affected employees' status as adverse weather essential and to make those employees whole. In addition, the Arbitrator stated that the Agency should not discipline employees for challenging the designation as adverse weather essential. For the following reasons, we deny the Agency's essence exception and set aside the award because it is contrary to management's right to assign work."

"text": "LENEXA, Kan.—Grantham University in conjunction with the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) has named Angela Jackson of Beacon, N. Y ., as recipient of a $36,000 scholarship. Jackson is working toward a master's degree in business administration at Grantham University with expected completion in 2016. Jackson, 43, is a native of Detroit, Mich., and began her government administrative career as a member of a Teamsters Union with Detroit newspapers spanning 12 years and several promotions. She has a bachelor's degree in business administration from the University of Phoenix and a master's degree in public administration from Texas Southern University. She is employed as a medical support assistant in the scheduling call center for Veterans Affairs at the Castle Point campus in Wappingers Falls, N. Y. The scholarship award will help Jackson strengthen her ability “to move through the ranks of government leadership, while supporting the very organizations that have made it possible for both women and minorities to be successful in America. As a mature student, I intend to not only put forth my best effort, but also continue to serve the veterans of our country with the highest quality of service I can provide, and follow both the mission of the Veterans Affairs and the American Federation of Government Employees.” Jackson is a survivor of breast cancer and leukemia and credits strong networks, often through unions, with aiding her to find a bone marrow donor to help her achieve remission from cancer. Jackson said she plans to pursue additional education with the same strength of determination that she used to fight cancer, “so that I, too, may be a force to reckon with in a powerful unionized organization.” Jackson’s family includes three generations of United Auto Workers’ members during a time when the labor movement was strong in Detroit. “"

And it came to be new moon, and the king took his seat at the meal to eat (1 Samuel 20). David knew this because under the BLC every lunar month was 30 days long. So he was on the 30th day of the month and therefore the next day was the new moon.

Those who have been through the process before know that it can take a few months to even get to the pending status. These new revelations coupled with recent gear developments have me reconsidering my stance on AR-15 pistols. I wouldn’t say that I am anti-AR pistol and I also wouldn’t say that I think they are a great idea. I guess that I am somewhat agnostic toward them. However, what always bothered me was casual way that they were written off by many “experts” who sneered that they were toys without ever really backing that up with actual data. So, in an effort to find out what is really up with AR pistols, I am planning on building one and putting it through the wringer. I’ll report back with quantifiable data in regard to how they perform against a similarly configured rifle. That sort of project takes some time and while I have been preparing for it, I came across a lot of misinformation about AR-15 pistols that I would like to set straight in this article.

( 1)Reservoirs: The bacterium is usually found residing in soil, manure, and dust. ( 3) “In the spore form, Clostridium tetani may remain inactive in the soil, but it can remain infectious for more than 40 years.” ( 1)Etiologic agent and generally characteristics: Clostridium tetani is the specific bacterium that causes the disease Tetanus. ( 9) This is a comparatively large, anaerobic, spore forming bacterium which stains Gram-positive and is rod shaped. ( 1, 9, 6, 8) Clostridium Tetani is a passing member of the intestinal flora which is terminated when exposed to O2. ( 1)Key tests for identification: Tetanus does not have a specific lab test for diagnosis. In order to identify the disease or diagnose a patient, a doctor generally does a physical examination and obtains medical and vaccination history, while checking for specific signs and symptoms of tetanus. The physician will also test for other illnesses with similar symptoms to rule out the possibility of a different infectious disease such as meningitis or rabies. ( 2, 3, 4, 7) This is because the bacterium that causes the disease, Clostridium tetani, cannot usually be obtained from the wound of a patient with tetanus and can actually sometimes be found in someone who does not actually have the disease!

It was introduced in the 1988 and 1992 Olympic Games as a demonstration sport, and made its debut as a full medal sport at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia. [ 1] Both men and women compete in four events each defined by separate weight classes: flyweight, featherweight, middleweight and heavyweight. Traditionally, taekwondo competitions consist of eight weight classes for each gender, but Olympic taekwondo only have four due to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) limiting the total number of taekwondo entrants to 128. [ 2]The competitions are conducted in accordance with the rules established by the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF). [ 3] The competition format for taekwondo is a single-elimination tournament to determine the gold and silver medal winners, and a repechage is used to determine the bronze medal winner (s). [ 4] in 2000 and 2004, a single repechage final determined the sole bronze medal winner, but a rule change in 2008 created two repechage finals that allowed for the bronze medal to be shared between two competitors. [ 5]Iranian Hadi Saei (2 gold, 1 bronze), American Steven López (2 gold, 1 bronze), South Korean Hwang Kyung-Seon (2 gold, 1 bronze) and Mexican María del Rosario Espinoza (1 gold, 1 silver, 1 bronze) share the most medals in Taekwondo with three. [ 6] [7] By defending her title at 2012 London Olympics, Hwang Kyung-Seon became the first woman ever to win three Olympic taekwondo medals.

With more than 50 years of experience, Infinity has risen to a place among the biggest insurance companies in the nation, providing coverage to people who have had trouble finding insurance elsewhere, as well as those looking for a budget car insurance option. Infinity Overview Founded in 1955 as Dixie Insurance Company in Anniston, Alabama, the company eventually known as the Infinity Group expanded quickly in the South. Infinity was purchased by American Premier Underwriters’ sister company Pennsylvania Company in 1991, and a few years later that company merged with American Financial Corporation to form American Financial Group (AFG). In 2002, Infinity became independent again when AFG sold off all stock to the new Infinity Property & Casualty Corporation. Today Infinity has built a reputation as the go-to company for drivers with tickets or accidents, and is the second largest non-standard insurer in the nation, according to the company website. They not only write non-standard policies – they also write standard auto, home, life, specialty auto, and more. As of November 2014, infinity was ranked as the 21st largest auto insurance company in the United States. Insure.com ranks them near Amica and National General in terms of overall market share.

"text": "Home > Minerals & Products > Limestone What is Limestone? Limestone is a common sedimentary rock composed primarily of the calcium carbonate mineral, calcite (Ca CO 3 ). Limestone constitutes approximately 10 percent of the sedimentary rocks exposed on the earth’s surface. Limestone is formed either by direct crystallization from water (usually seawater), or by the accumulation of sea animal shells and shell fragments. In the direct crystallization case calcium ions in the seawater combine with atmospheric or dissolved carbon dioxide to form calcium carbonate, which being insoluble, precipitates out. Over time, layers of the calcium carbonate form, and with sufficient time and pressure from overlying materials, are transformed to solid rock. The chemical composition of seawater and its minerals contaminants will be recorded in the limestone impurities. Limestone frequently also contains the minerals dolomite or calcium magnesium carbonate (Ca Mg (CO 3) 2, and a second crystalline form of calcium carbonate, aragonite. In the seas that covered much of the earth in earlier geological times lived many clams and other shelled forms of animal life. When the animals died, their shells, which are composed of calcium carbonate, fell to the bottom."

An employee may be typically be removed from a position at any time and for any reason prior to the completion of the probationary period, as long as it doesn't constitute illegal discrimination. A probationary employee is generally an at-will employee who has no expectation of continued employment. The probationary employee may be dismissed at anytime during the probationary period, for good cause or without cause or reason, depending on the employer's policy. The definition of good cause varies by employer, but may include:deficiency in work performance, attendance, or conduct,lack of aptitude or cooperativeness, and/orundesirable suitability characteristics evidenced by the employee's activities either during or outside official work hours. The supervisor's failure to counsel, provide training, etc., does not usually constitute a basis to retain the employee if the employee's performance, attendance, or conduct otherwise warrants termination. However, probationary employees may have the right to a \"\"name clearing\"\" meeting, if the employer alleges that the employee committed an infraction which would stigmatize them in future employment. Some employers provide for an appeals procedure to be followed in certain cases. Probationary employer policies vary by employer, so individuals need to consult the policies in force at their workplace to determine applicable requirements."

Atrial fibrillation, often referred to as \"\"afib\"\", is an irregular heartbeat, a rapid heartbeat, or a quivering of the upper chambers of the heart, called the atria. Atrial fibrillation is due to a malfunction in the heart's electrical system, and is the most common heart irregularity, or cardiac arrhythmia. For more detail about how the heart works and what happens to the heart when it is in atrial fibrillation, see About the Heart. What Does Atrial Fibrillation Feel Like? Different patients have different symptoms. Some patients describe afib as feeling like skipped heartbeats, followed by a thud and a speeding up or racing of the heart. Others describe it as an erratic heartbeat, strong heart palpitations, or simply a rapid heart rate. For still others, it feels like fluttering, butterflies, or even a flopping fish in the chest."

Although atrial fibrillation can feel weird and frightening, an “attack of AFib” usually doesn’t have harmful consequences by itself. The real danger is the increased risk for stroke. Even when symptoms are not noticeable, AFib can increase a person’s risks for stroke and related heart problems. What causes atrial fibrillation? Sometimes the cause of AFib is unknown. Other times, it is the result of damage to the heart's electrical system from other conditions, such as longstanding, uncontrolled high blood pressure or coronary artery disease. AFib is also the most common complication after heart surgery. View an animation of atrial fibrillation."

This is a procedure to treat atrial fibrillation ( AFib ), a type of irregular heartbeat. Your doctor may try ablation if medications and resetting your heartbeat -- you may hear that called cardioversion -- don’t work. Why Treat AFib? You could have symptoms, such as: Fatigue Shortness of breath Heart palpitations, which can make it feel like your heart is racing or like you have a flip-flopping in your chest. If untreated, AFib can raise your chance of getting blood clots, heart failure, or stroke. These could be life-threatening."

We know that the erratic electrical impulses that cause atrial fibrillation often originate in the pulmonary veins, at least in most paroxysmal (intermittent) atrial fibrillation, and that the impulses that cause persistent and longstanding persistent atrial fibrillation are believed to come from other areas as well, but what actually causes afib? Though researchers are investigating the cause of atrial fibrillation, as of now it is largely unknown except that some recent studies have shown a genetic component as afib often runs in families. What Are Atrial Fibrillation Risk Factors? The risk factors for atrial fibrillation are as numerous as the symptoms. One of the most important risk factors is existing heart disease. Atrial fibrillation is common among those with coronary heart disease, valve disease, or an inflamed heart muscle or lining, or who have had a heart attack, congestive heart failure, or recent heart surgery."

This leak is called an ruptured aneurysm. There is another less noticed form of heart trouble cause by this stretching and enlargement of cardiac tissue - Atrial Fibrillation. Afib is a problem in the heart's electrical system and it seems this - short circuit - as it were may be caused by the stretching of the heart and surrounding vascular tissue due to High Blood Pressure. Younger people may be able to compensate for while but as they age and develop full blown high blood pressure - soon there after their risk goes up for Atrial Fibrillation. Hypertension can be controlled or eliminated so don't wait for what might happen and get a handle on your blood pressure today!One of the most important numbers you can know about your heart is your blood pressure. This is the amount of force that your blood exerts on the walls of your blood vessels. When your blood pressure is high over a long period of time, it can put you at risk for all heart disease, not just Afib. If you’re been diagnosed with high blood pressure – or you have a family history of high blood pressure – it’s important that you do all you can to get it down."

"text": "Home - Treatments and Services - Atrial Fibrillation Atrial Fibrillation On This Page A heart that beats in regular intervals is said to be in normal sinus rhythm. Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is an abnormal heart rhythm that causes the two upper chambers of the heart, the atria, to quiver instead of contracting. This happens because the electrical signals that regulate the atria become erratic and start firing at 300 to 400 times per minute, resulting in a fast, irregular rate in the lower chambers that can in turn lead to severe symptoms. The triggers for atrial fibrillation are usually found in the pulmonary veins, which drain oxygenated blood from the lungs into the left atrium. Why is AFib a problem? When the upper chambers of the heart beat too fast or uncontrollably, blood may pool in the left atrial appendage and form clots, increasing the risk for stroke. About 15 percent of strokes occur in people with AFib. In addition, if you have a-fib, you may not feel well because your heart is unable to pump effectively.

Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a type of cardiac arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat. In a healthy heart, oxygen-rich blood moves from your lungs to the left upper chamber of your heart. The upper chambers are called your atria. Your atria pump the blood into the two lower chambers of your heart, known as your ventricles. Blood from your lungs is pumped from the left atrium into the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps your blood around your body and back to the right atrium, the right ventricle, and then your lungs. Electrical impulses allow each part of your heart to beat in rhythm with other parts. If you have AFib, your heart’s electrical signals become disorganized. This causes your heart’s atria to beat chaotically, preventing proper blood flow."

Disorganized signals make the heart 's two upper chambers (the atria) squeeze very fast and out of sync. They contract so quickly that the heart walls quiver, or fibrillate. It can happen because the heart's electrical system has been damaged, typically from other conditions that affect the heart. But in at least 1 of every 10 AFib cases, other things may be at play. Sometimes, doctors can't figure out what's causing AFib. Even after you've been diagnosed with the condition, you may be able to control your AFib and avoid having an episode if you know what triggers them for you. Age and Family Your risk increases, especially after age 60. As people grow older, they're more likely to develop heart disease and other conditions that can cause AFib. If someone in your close family had or has it, there's a greater risk for you, too."

The atria beat out of synch with the lower chambers, called the ventricles. When this happens, not all blood gets pumped out of the heart. This can cause the blood to pool within the atria. Clots can form when the blood pools. If one of these clots breaks free and travels toward the brain, it can restrict blood flow to the brain. This can cause a stroke.

Heart rhythm is how regular/evenly spaced the heart beats occur (think of how regular the beat/rhythm is of a song you dance to). Heart rate pertains to how many heart beats per minute (average is 60-100 per minute, but with medication 50 is not unusual and is still considered satisfactory)One has to remember that a pacemaker is an anti-bradycardia device (prevents slow heart rate). A pacemaker is prescribed to patients with AFib only if their heart tends to get too slow (< 40 beats per minute or pauses for >4 seconds) and cause symptoms (such as near fainting or fainting). Situations with AFib when heart rate becomes unavoidably too slow are: The slow heart beat is unavoidable because of medication essential for controlling fast AFib, angina or high BP, and for which there are no effective alternatives. The patient's natural pacemaker (the sinus node) no longer responds appropriately to the needs of the body (e.g. when walking, heart rate remains <45 per minute instead of increasing to 100/min) - a condition called sick sinus syndrome. When the electrical signal from the sinus node stops in the atriums and doesn't transmit to ventricles (main pumping chambers), a condition called complete heart block. ( This is an electrical block and not a clogged up blood vessel)."

Atrial flutter is a common arrhythmia that shares many similarities to its next of kin, AFib; but there are important differences. Sawtooth appearance of typical atrial flutter Let’s go over 15 basic facts and important points about atrial flutter. ( In plain English.)1. Atrial flutter is defined as a rapid but organized rhythm (tachycardia) in the top chamber of the heart (either from the right or left atrium). In typical cases of atrial flutter, the atrial are contracting at 200-300 bpm. [ Note: Do not confuse atrial rate with pulse rate. The pulse rate (or heart rate, originates from the ventricles, which beat at some ratio of the atrial rate—see numbers 2 & 7]2. T he rapid atrial rhythm of flutter differs from AFib in two important ways: First, when the atria fibrillate, the rate is well above 300 bpm, and this results in quivering, never contracting atria."

However, doctors had difficulty duplicating the Cox maze lesion set during a closed-chest catheter ablation. The procedure had high complication rates and required long fluoroscopy times. Research in Bordeaux, France, by Michel Haïssaguerre, MD, and colleagues, suggested that electrophysiologists didn't need to duplicate the Cox maze lesion set. Dr. Haïssaguerre's group found that over 90% of atrial fibrillation is triggered (starts) in or near the pulmonary veins. As a result of these findings, a new type of catheter ablation technique, called Segmental Pulmonary Vein Isolation or Ostial Pulmonary Vein Isolation, was created. Dr. Haïssaguerre and his colleagues used radiofrequency energy to ablate the pulmonary vein ostium, the opening to the pulmonary veins. When \"\"isolated\"\", pulmonary veins can no longer be a trigger point for atrial fibrillation."

"text": "Understanding ASVAB Scores ASVAB scoring is based on an Item Response Theory (IRT) model. IRT is a theory that enables test questions and examinee abilities to be placed on the same scale, thereby allowing tests to be tailored to the specific ability level of each examinee and scores to be expressed on the same scale regardless of the combination of items that are taken. The IRT model underlying ASVAB scoring is the three-parameter logistic (3PL) model. The 3PL model represents the probability that an examinee at a given level of ability will respond correctly to an individual item with given characteristics. Specifically, the item characteristics represented in the 3PL model are difficulty, discrimination (i.e., how well the item discriminates among examinees of differing levels of ability), and guessing (i.e., the likelihood that a very low ability examinee would respond correctly simply by guessing). For the paper-and-pencil (P&P) version of the ASVAB, the 3PL model is used to compute final ability estimates for examinees. For the purpose of scoring, any unanswered items are treated as incorrect. After the final ability estimate is computed, it is converted to a standard score on the ASVAB score scale that has been statistically linked to the ability estimate through a process called equating. Equating studies are conducted for every paper and pencil ASVAB form to ensure that scores have the same meaning regardless of which test form the examinee receives. Standard Scores are scores that have a fixed mean and standard deviation in the population of examinees."

In FY 2006, 60 percent of new recruits were high school graduates who scored in Category IIIA or higher on the AFQT. Enlistment Eligibility The Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) is used by all of the Services to determine if an applicant is eligible for the military. Four of the ASVAB subtests are combined to form the AFQT. It measures general cognitive ability and is composed of verbal and mathematics subtests. AFQT scores are grouped into categories for reporting purposes. The table below shows the AFQT categories and the percentile score ranges corresponding to the categories. Applicants that score in AFQT category IIIA or higher may qualify for enlistment incentives. The minimum AFQT score required to qualify for enlistment varies across the different branches of service. Contact a military recruiter or visit one of the Service-specific websites listed below to find out more about the required minimum AFQT score."

Before enlisting in the U. S. military, you must take the Armed Service Vocational Aptitude Battery. According to the official ASVAB website, the ASVAB is a test that measures developed abilities and helps predict future academic and occupational success in the military. The subtest scores you receive on your ASVAB will help determine the particular military jobs for which you're eligible. Your ASVAB's Armed Forces Qualification Test score determines whether or not you can even enlist in the military. AFQT Score Range According to the U. S. Army, people are referring to their AFQT score when they talk about their ASVAB score. AFQT scores range from 1 to 99 and they're spread across eight categories from Category I for scores of 93 to 99 down to Category V for scores of 1 to 9. Category II is the second-highest AFQT category, for those with scores of 65 to 92. The third-highest AFQT category, labeled IIIA, hosts AFQT scores ranging from 50 to 64. AFQTs and Jobs The U. S. military gives enlistees in AFQT categories I, II and IIIA the greatest enlistment and job opportunities."

"text": "Understanding ASVAB Scores Scores on the individual ASVAB subtests are reported as Standard Scores. Standard Scores are scores that have a meaning relative to a national sample of youth aged 18 to 23. About half the population scores at or above a Standard Score of 50 and about 16% of the population scores at or above a Standard Score of 60. Examinees also receive a score on what is called the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT). AFQT scores are computed using the Standard Scores from four ASVAB subtests: Arithmetic Reasoning (AR), Mathematics Knowledge (MK), Paragraph Comprehension (PC), and Word Knowledge (WK). AFQT scores are reported as percentiles between 1-99. An AFQT percentile score indicates the percentage of examinees in a reference group that scored at or below that particular score. For current AFQT scores, the reference group is a sample of 18 to 23 year old youth who took the ASVAB as part of a national norming study conducted in 1997. Thus, an AFQT score of 90 indicates that the examinee scored as well as or better than 90% of the nationally-representative sample of 18 to 23 year old youth. An AFQT score of 50 indicates that the examinee scored as well as or better than 50% of the nationally-representative sample."

Your AFQT score determines whether or not you qualify to enlist in that particular branch of the service. The ASVAB also produces several line scores, which are different for each branch of service. Line scores determine which military jobs you’re qualified for. For charts showing how such scores relate to specific jobs in each branch of service, click here for the printable article, Matching ASVAB Scores to Military Jobs. Whether you take the pencil-and-paper version of the ASVAB or the CAT-ASVAB (computerized version), the scores are the same. The computerized version of the ASVAB is adaptive, which means that on some sections of the test, harder questions are worth more points than easier questions, so you may be able to obtain the maximum possible score with fewer questions. VE Score The Verbal Expression (VE) score is used to determine qualifications for many military jobs in all the branches, and it’s used to help determine your AFQT score. To compute your VE score, the military adds the number correct (1 point per correct answer) of the Paragraph Comprehension (PC) and the Word Knowledge (WK) subtests and then compares the results to the info in the following table. Computing the VE Score Standard Scores (PC + WK) VE Score50 6248–49 6046–47 5844–45 5642–43 5440–41 5238–39 5036–37 4934–35 4732–33 4530–31 4428–29 4226–27 4024–25 3822–23 3620–21 3418–19 3216–17 3114–15 2912–13 2710–11 258–9 226–7 224–5 210–3 20AFQT Score The AFQT (Armed Forces Qualifying Test) score is arguably the most important ASVAB score because it determines whether you’re eligible to join the military branch of your choice."

They have chosen to increase the age due to a need to attract a pool of qualified individuals that have computer programming or foreign language experience. They especially want more multilingual recruits. Since the Army caps the age for enlistment at 35, the Navy and 34 and the Marines at 28, this news makes the Air Force the military branch with the highest allowed recruiting age. This is great news for United States citizens that have reached a point in their career where they are looking for a different career path, if they are multilingual or have cyber work experience. You may be wondering what educational requirements are for enlistment in the Air Force at an older age? As of right now, the requirements remain the same as before. This means Air Force recruits must get at least 36 points on the ASVAB*. Exclusions are created, however, for a few high school graduates that score lower than 36, but higher than 31. Yet, over 70 percent of those approved for an Air Force enlistment score 50 or above. It’s almost impossible get into the Air Force without a high school diploma."

"text": "Understanding the AFQT Score What most people call an ASVAB score is actually called the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) score. This score is what determines if you meet the minimum qualifications for enlistment in the military and is a basic measure of how “trainable” you may be to perform jobs in the service. The AFQT score is computed from your scores on four of the nine subtests of the ASVAB test: Word Knowledge Paragraph Comprehension Arithmetic Reasoning Mathematics Knowledge Although doing well on the other five subtests can help you qualify for certain jobs in the military, it’s only your performance on these four subtests that makes up your AFQT score. Specifically, your AFQT score is computed using the specific formula:2VE + AR + MKVE is your Verbal Expression score which is a combination of your Word Knowledge (WK) and your Paragraph Comprehension (PC) score. To determine VE your WK and PC scores are added together and the result is converted to a scaled score between 20 and 62. Your raw AFQT score is then computed by doubling your VE score and adding your Arithmetic Reasoning (AR) and your Mathematics Knowledge (MK) scores to it. This raw AFQT score is then compared with everyone else who took the ASVAB test and you’re ranked by a percentile score indicating how well you did in comparison. So, for example, if your raw score is better then 65% of the other test takers your AFQT score will be 65 and if your raw score is better than 25% of the other test takers your AFQT score will be a 25. The minimum AFQT score required for enistment differs by the branch of the military you’re trying for ( Air Force ASVAB, Army ASVAB, Coast Guard ASVAB, Marines ASVAB, or Navy ASVAB) and whether you’re a high school graduate or have a GED.

The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery, or ASVAB, scores are a part of what determines your ability to enlist in the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps or Coast Guard. Your ASVAB score includes your Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) score. For high school graduates, the required score is usually in the lower 30s, while those with a GED are usually required to score at least a 50. A \"\"good\"\" score for those who have graduated high school is considered to be a 35. However, each branch has its own minimum score necessary for enlistment, and the higher you score, the more jobs you will be qualified for in your branch of service. In the Army Now The minimum AFQT score for enlistment in the Army is 31, regardless of whether you have a high school diploma or a GED. Waivers can be used to lower the minimum score enlistment score to 26, if the current recruiting requirements allow. If you want to qualify for incentive programs like the Army College Fund, college loan repayment and monetary enlistment bonuses, you typically need a minimum score of 50."

Follow 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Actually, a good asvab ( really the AFQT ) score, is one that gets you in the military. The afqt score, only uses 4 of the 9 areas tested on the asvab. So you could score really well on the asvab, and still not qualify for most technicial training. On the otherhand, you could score really low on the asvab, barely passing, but still qualify for some of the hardest technicial training, as long as your sub score was high enough.

Copied Select a Section 1 /0Abstract: A November 2011 Heritage Foundation report—“Assessing the Compensation of Public-School Teachers”—presented data on teacher salaries and benefits in order to inform debates about teacher compensation reform. The report concluded that public-school teacher compensation is far ahead of what comparable private-sector workers enjoy, and that recruiting more effective teachers will be more difficult than simply raising salaries. The debate over the report’s findings has generated substantive inquiries as well as some misconceptions. Here, the report’s authors respond to questions and concerns, in the process showing that certain critical accusations—such as undercounting teachers’ work hours or overestimating retirement benefits—are simply false. The broader implication of the authors’ research is that the current teacher compensation system is not working. The United States needs a more rational system that pays teachers according to their performance. Our recent report, “Assessing the Compensation of Public-School Teachers,” [1] concluded that, on average, public-school teachers receive total compensation that is roughly 50 percent higher than what they would receive in private-sector employment. While salaries are at appropriate levels, fringe benefits push teacher compensation far ahead of what private-sector workers enjoy."

For people living in the prevailing conditions of the developed world, IQ is highly heritable, and by adulthood the influence of family environment on IQ is undetectable.

[ 1] Fundamental to the way in which organisms cope with environmental variation, phenotypic plasticity encompasses all types of environmentally induced changes (e.g. morphological, physiological, behavioural, phenological) that may or may not be permanent throughout an individual's lifespan. The term was originally used to describe developmental effects on morphological characters, but is now more broadly used to describe all phenotypic responses to environmental change, such as acclimation or acclimatization, as well as learning. [ 2] The special case when differences in environment induce discrete phenotypes is termed polyphenism. Phenotypic plasticity is the ability of one genotype to produce more than one phenotype when exposed to different environments. Each line here represents a genotype. Horizontal lines show that the phenotype is the same in different environments; slanted lines show that there are different phenotypes in different environments, and thus indicate plasticity. Generally, phenotypic plasticity is more important for immobile organisms (e.g. plants) than mobile organisms (e.g. most animals ), as mobile organisms can often move away from unfavourable environments. [ 3] Nevertheless, mobile organisms also have at least some degree of plasticity in at least some aspects of the phenotype. One mobile organism with substantial phenotypic plasticity is Acyrthosiphon pisum of the aphid family, which exhibits the ability to interchange between asexual and sexual reproduction, as well as growing wings between generations when plants become too populated.

"text": "\"Tadpoles Amphibians Frogs How long does it take for tadpoles to become frogs?7 Answers Harold Suse, The Amazing world of Frogs Answered Jun 28, 2016The simple answer There is no simple answer to this question. Life cycles vary greatly between species and, of course, the development of the tadpoles is one major difference. Tadpole life is often dictated by environmental factors. That is, conditions and evolutionary pressures have adapted the frogs' life-cycles to best suit their surroundings. For example, species which live in arid environments must have a very fast tadpole development in order for eggs to be laid in pools following rain and tadpoles fully develop before those pools dry up again in a matter of days, while frogs which live by permanent water sources can have a much longer development. Another evolutionary modification is the removal of some or all of the \"\"free-living\"\" tadpole stage. Direct development is where the eggs are laid out of water and the tadpoles pass their entire developmental period on land, and delayed emergence is where the eggs are laid on land and the tadpoles enter the water at a relatively advanced stage of development. About one-quarter of Australian frog species use one of these methods. Even within a single species, the time taken for tadpoles to develop can vary. There are a number of factors that determine this."

Agalychnis represents their genus and callidryas is derived from the greek words kallos, meaning beautiful, and dryas meaning tree nymph hence the ever appropriate name: the beautiful tree nymph. The Red Eyed tree frog exhibits a brilliant display of colors with it's emerald green head and back, sky blue inner legs, creamy white to yellow and bright blue striped sides, orange toes, and , of course, those piercing red eyes. Their color and size vary depending upon their geographic origination. Those originating from the northernmost ranges, such as south Mexico and Guatemala, are smallest and usually display light blue flanks and yellowish orange toes. Those originating from more southern regions, such as Nicaragua and Costa Rica, tend to be larger in size and display much more brillinat colors such as deep blue to bluish purple flanks, sky blue inner thighs, and bright orange toes. They also exhibit creamy white bellies, some will have white freckles on their dorsal surface and all have vertical pupils which are uncommon to the hylid family - all of which add to their stunning beauty. Red Eyed tree frogs will reach an average size of 2.5 inches with a range of 2 to 3 inches in length, snout to vent. Males usually reach an average length of 2.2 inches and females are usually aroung 2.5 inches."

Some species have unique adaptations that facilitate their getting to it. For example, the waxy monkey frog lays eggs in leaf nests a few feet above the water's surface so that when the eggs hatch the tadpoles wriggle free and drop into the water below. Some arboreal frog species lay their eggs in water collected in tree trunks, where the tadpoles develop there. Desert frogs may lie underground for months, waiting for rains to create temporary water bodies in which the tadpoles can develop. When tadpoles hatch, they're designed for aquatic life with gills and tails; they develop lungs and legs as they mature."

Follow 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Age of consent means that the person is the age that is legally presumed to possess the mental capacity to understand the seriousness of their actions and can give consent to have sex. The answer to the second part of your question is: maybe. Some states only require that both parties be of lawful age. Kentucky is such a state. As long as both parties are over 16, consensual sex is lawful (unless the law has changed since I moved in 2001). Florida, where I spent the last few years of my police career was more strict."

Should the age of consent be changed from 16 to 18?tg, florence First,raising the age of consent to 18 will not stop the issue of sex out of marriage or before the age of 18. This state and many others use to have laws that made premartial sex a misdemeanor/felony depending upon the state and the age of indivuals involved and many of those laws are still on the books. If the idea here is crimimalize what is percieved as an wrongful act then the are already laws in place to do just that regardless of the age of the indivuals. If the idea here is to legislate morality, then this law like many others before will fail miserably and only be used by zealous solictors as another tool to coierce otherwise law-abiding citizens to the will of the all knowing all seeing state. Why stop at 18 why not 21 or some other arbitary number/age. I have a daughter who was sexually active at 16, she is now 21 and I have the most beautiful 4 year old granddaughter in the world because of her. All the coaching, teaching, yelling and even threats can not change human actions and emotions. People because they human do things others do not think they should do. But to try and legislate morality is starting down a slippery slope that we as a state/nation should not venture near that is unless we wish to emulate some nations like Iran,Syria and other countries of the sort."

"text": "\"Overview Emancipation ends the parents' rights to control his or her minor child or to participate in any decision-making about the child. If a child is emancipated, the parents no longer have the right to determine where the child lives or goes to school, or how the child's money is spent. The parent also has no right to the minor's wages or earnings. The emancipated child's parents, in some situations, also would be relieved of certain responsibilities. For example, the parents would no longer be required to pay child support. The parents also would no longer remain responsible for harm that their minor child causes to other people or property. Because the parents no longer are responsible for damages the minor child causes, the minor could be sued personally and held responsible for damages s/he causes. While emancipation relieves both the parent and child from certain obligations, the minor must still follow the law. For instance, even if s/he is emancipated, the child still cannot drive until age 16, and must attend school through his or her 16th birthday. An emancipated minor still cannot vote until age 18, and cannot purchase or consume alcohol until age 21."

Lack of consent may be demonstrated by: The complainant's assertion of force or threats;Evidence that by reason of drink, drugs, sleep, age or mental disability the complainant was unaware of what was occurring and/ or incapable of giving valid consent; or Evidence that the complainant was deceived as to the identity of the person with whom (s)he had intercourse. A boy or girl under the age of 16 cannot consent in law, (Archbold 2004, 20-152). Consent should be carefully considered when deciding not only what offence to charge but also whether it is in the public interest to prosecute. Sometimes consent is given, or appears to be given, but the law does not treat it as effective consent. The law does not allow a person's consent to sexual activity to have effect in the following situations:where the person giving consent did not understand what was happing and so could not give informed consent, for example in the case of a child or someone suffering from a severe mental disability;where the person giving consent was under the relevant age of consent. These two situations are different. In the first, the apparent consent is not treated as real consent because the person consenting did not understand enough to give real consent. This is a question of fact."

"text": "\"Patient Refusal: What to do when medical treatment and transport are rejected Wed, Dec 31, 1969The rural N. Y. volunteer fire department I ride with was dispatched to a supermarket for a woman who had fainted. Another EMT-B and I arrived on scene to find a young woman sitting on a chair at the cash register, looking dazed but conscious. The manager of the store explained that she had called 9-1-1 after the cashier slumped to the floor while ringing up a customer and then regained consciousness almost immediately. My partner took a set of vitals while I questioned the patient about her situation. She stated that she was a 17-year-old diabetic who had miscarried a few days earlier. We found her alert and oriented to person, place and time, and my partner stated that her vitals were within normal limits except for a slightly high blood pressure, which the patient described as normal for her. Still, my partner and I both felt that it was in the patient's best interest to go to the hospital and get checked out. At this point, the patient became emotional and said that she didn't want to go. We explained our reasons and stated that because she was under age 18, she must go to the hospital by law. She reluctantly consented, and we transported her to the hospital without incident."

In most jurisdictions, the Age of Consent is violated when an adult has intercourse with an individual who has not reached that jurisdiction's AOC. In other jurisdictions, the AOC is a minimum age for any type of sexual conduct, and two minor participants can violate a jurisdiction's AOC. The crime and penalties for an AOC violation varies based on jurisdiction, the age of the older actor and the difference between the two actors. Charges may range from a relatively low level misdemeanor such as \"\"corruption of a minor\"\" to statutory rape (which is considered equivalent to rape, both in severity and sentencing.) Some jurisdictions have a second age of consent that is relevant in situations when the adult actor is in a position of authority over the minor (affecting teachers, coaches, principals, health professionals, police officers, family members.) Though some areas allow certain ages that can have sexual intercourse with someone over or under the age of consent but by only a few years (usually 3-4 years). The age of consent should not be confused with the age of majority or age of criminal responsibility, and in some jurisdictions, the marriageable age differs from the age of consent. The age of consent varies widely from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, though most jurisdictions in the world today have an age of consent between 14 to 18 years, but ages as young as 12 and as old as 21 also occur. The relevant age may also vary by the type of sexual act or the gender of the people concerned."

In some countries the law considers you old enough to die for your country before you're old enough to vote. In others, you could be forced to become a child soldier in spite of laws forbidding the practice. The Convention on the Rights of the Child says that no one under the age of 15 should have to fight in a war. An optional protocol, or formal addition, to the Convention pushes that age up to 18. Voluntary recruitment of under-18s is not forbidden by this protocol, but under-18 recruits must have the consent of their parents or guardians and should not be involved in combat. So far, this protocol has been signed by 111 countries and ratified – given legal force – by 54 of those countries. Quite a few countries allow voluntary recruitment in the armed forces from the age of 16 or even 15, and voluntary recruitment at 17 is common. A few countries, including Israel and Cuba, have conscription – compulsory recruitment – from the age of 17."

For example purposes only: Can a 16-year-old legally have sex with a 100-year-old without any fear of the law or their parents? Technically 16 is still considered a \"\"minor\"\" so how can a 'minor child' give legal consent to have sex with a 100-year-old? Couldnt the parents press charges for \"\"contributing to the delinquency of a minor?\"\" I know some states have \"\"Romeo-and-Julliet\"\" laws which say anyone UNDER 16 must be within 4 years difference. Please only respond if you know for sure, and not your opinion on right/wrong.10-02-2008, 05:31 AM #2Apocryphon Member Join Date Sep 2008Location New York Posts 9Gender Male [Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer, this is only my understanding of Michigan law, but I am confident that what I've said is correct] The age of consent in Michigan is 16, except in cases where one person is an authoritative figure to the other (teacher, etc). In those cases the age of consent is 18. What this means is that a 16 and 100 year old (who have no authoritative relationship) could legally have intercourse even without permission from the parents of the 16 year old.10-02-2008, 08:25 AM #3vermilion Silver Member Join Date Apr 2006Age 27Posts 519Gender Female As I know it in my state, age of consent means only that you can legally have sex with someone else AT LEAST 16 and UNDER 18. So legally, no a 16 year old couldn't be with an adult, but does have the right to be with someone else who has at least reached the age of consent (16). Consent simply means you can have sex, it doesn't say you can have it with anyone."

Our top tip, though, is to check out the terms and conditions for sites your children are using or want to use. OK for under-13s Why 13? A lot of very popular sites and apps make 13 the minimum age for users. This is because the United States passed a law in 1998 that said that companies could not collect data from children under the age of 13 without their parents' permission. The expense and work involved led many companies to restrict their services to over-13s. These are services that are either designed for children aged under 13, or are specifically designed to be used by under-13s providing they have parental consent: Popjam This service is available for use by children aged under 13. Their terms explain that if a child is younger than 13, they need the consent of a parent or legal guardian before giving out any personal information when they register."

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law that affords parents the right to have access to their children’s education records, the right to seek to have the records amended, and the right to have some control over the disclosure of personally identifiable information from the education records. When a student turns 18 years old, or enters a postsecondary institution at any age, the rights under FERPA transfer from the parents to the student (“eligible student”). The FERPA statute is found at 20 U. S. C. § 1232g and the FERPA regulations are found at 34 CFR Part 99. What is FERPA? Does a spouse of an eligible student have rights with respect to that student’s education records? No, spouses of eligible students have no rights under FERPA. Before a college or university discloses information from a student’s education records to his or her spouse, the student would have to provide written consent.

Summary In this debate, we explore the dilemmas between the law, the ethical issues, the good clinical practice, and the wishes of the family. In the scenario chosen, the issues center around not only the senior family members but also of an older child with some rights to self-determination. There are no absolute rights or wrongs to this case, which is based on a synthesis of other actual clinical scenarios. The maze of considerations are not easy to negotiate, and in the final analysis, the surgeon and the anesthetist must also be comfortable with the decisions as they are the active elements that have to practically manage a clinical crisis should it occur. The participants in this debate are all UK based, and as such the legal standpoint reflects UK legislation, and the ethical and clinical reviews are strongly influenced by current attitudes within UK and Europe that may not be exactly mirrored in different cultural frameworks. However, in this article, it is the broad principles behind the differing responses that are important, which it is hoped will stimulate reflection of attitudes and management in different cultural frameworks. The clinical scenario A 14-year-old girl presents for repeat major cardiac surgery (a Ross procedure). Her clinical situation has deteriorated in that she has severe regurgitation and stenosis of her original aortic valve despite previous operations to try to repair the defect."

However, this is not true. 92.5% is not a standard gold purity value, and it does not correspond to any commonly used karat number. The closest level of purity to 92.5% is 22 karats, which translates to 91.7% purity. Advertisement Advertisement If you see the number 925 stamped on gold jewelry, chances are that the mark does not refer to the gold content of the piece. These rings have “925” stamped on them, meaning that they are not made of solid gold.925 is a standard sign used to mark sterling silver, and the meaning of the stamp is that the silver content in the piece is 92.5% (i.e., the remaining 7.5% is comprised of other elements). Why Stamp Gold Jewelry with a Silver Mark? Perhaps because the “gold” jewelry you are looking at is not actually made of gold. It seems puzzling why a gold piece would be marked with a stamp commonly used for silver."

It is used for surgical implants. From a jeweler’s point of view Niobium is fabulous because it can be easily shaped, is as strong as steel, and has a natural shine. It can be anodized to be a rainbow of colors. It is a pure element, not combined with any other metal. It does not cause problems that alloys may cause. Even if you have never been able to wear metal jewelry comfortably, you will be able to wear Niobium. Titanium Titanium is as strong as steel, but as light as aluminum."

"text": "\"Gold Filled or Gold Vermeil: Which Is Better? Let me begin by saying that both are great, but different! Some people prefer the idea of \"\"gold filled\"\" jewelry, while others prefer gold-over-silver. Both are pretty, and durable. But is one better than the other? Precious Metals - There are basically three metals used in jewelry that are considered \"\"precious\"\": Gold, Silver and Platinum (which includes a group of metals, such as Palladium or Rhodium). Gold is of course yellow in color, and is alloyed with various other metals to produce different colors of gold, and different ratios of gold, indicated in karats:24k Gold is pure gold14k Gold is 14 parts gold to 10 parts alloy18k Gold is 18 parts gold to 6 parts alloy And so forth. You can see that everything adds up to 24. It is sometimes written as a ratio, such as 14/24 or 18/24. There are hundreds of different combinations of alloys that are mixed with the gold, such as silver or nickel (to make white gold), copper (to make rose gold), and 50/50 of silver and gold added to pure gold results in the typical \"\"color\"\" of yellow gold."

The value of costume jewelry is based on condition, manufacturer, and detail/fashion and age. No some costume jewelry is valuable depending on the things mentioned above. Sterling silver is more valuable than just base metal which is a combination of nickle and other common metals but it is much softer than silver.

Posted by Dana on 9/28/2013 to Jewelry Help A few years ago, sterling silver rose in cost to the point that many of the smaller sized jewelry designers could no longer offer it in their designs. I can remember when some of my sterling silver parts cost me $7.00 and now they are over $28.00! Jewelry designers started looking everywhere for affordable sterling silver findings. Many (myself included) looked to online auction sites for sources. I purchased what I thought was a bargain lot of \"\"sterling silver\"\" fishhook earwires. When they arrived, I saw that they were marked 925, but the mark looked like there was plating on top of it. I'd seen enough real sterling to know that was odd, so I cut one of the wires in half.

In a perfect world, all gold jewelry is marked with a big, bright 14K stamp. In the real world, there are hard-to-read stamps, stamps that mean gold-plated, stamps that are fake…and the list goes on. Here are a few stamps which signify the piece is NOT gold:14K 1/20 (1/20 gold is basically gold-filled)14K G. F. (gold-filled)14K G. P. (gold-plated)14K H. G. E.

It is made out of a different metal with a very thin gold layer that will wear off over time. These pieces do not have any real metal value and most gold buyers won’t purchase them from you (with the exception of sterling silver). Stamps that mean your piece IS gold: A plain 14K stamp14K P (The “P” stands for plumb gold)14K with a company logo after such as 14K <3417 (10K, means 41.7% gold)585 (14k, means 58.5% gold)750 (18K, means 75% gold)917 (22K, means 91.7% gold)999 (24K, means 99.9% gold)That being said, even if your piece is stamped “14K” you cannot be 100% sure it is gold. There are a number of fake stamps out there and the only way to be 100% sure is to test the metal with a gold tester using nitric acid. On the other hand, even if there is no stamp it could still be gold. Aside from the stamps or lack thereof, there are a couple other ways you (or most likely a jeweler) will be able to tell if the piece is gold: If the piece is tarnished or discolored in a way that’s not typical of gold (certain gold can discolor)By the weight (gold is very dense and therefore it should weigh more than any other non-gold piece its same size)Hopefully this helps you sort out the shoebox full of jewelry that you just inherited."

In August 2002, students returning to Southwestern Adventist University were greeted by a new rule, designed to uphold traditional Seventh-day Adventist standards: no jewelry on campus. There was a great deal of discussion about the new rule, and not a little opposition to it. As I write this paper almost a year and a half later, the no-jewelry policy is no longer enforced. The issue of jewelry has long been contentious in the Adventist church. The traditional stance is that wearing jewelry is wrong; however, there are many who contend that the traditionalists are akin to extremists when it comes to the jewelry issue. [ 1] One side quotes a few Bible passages and insists that God absolutely condemns jewelry. The other side points out that there are a number of verses that mention jewelry in a positive sense and accuse the traditionalists of misinterpreting the texts they use against jewelry. At the same time, there are a number of moderates and a lot of confused people who do not take a firm stance. Some accept certain types of jewelry, such as wedding bands or non-metallic jewelry [2] while others simply do not know what to think."

The weight of gold is measured in troy ounces (1 troy ounce = 31.1034768 grams), but its purity, or \"\"fineness\"\" has been measured in a few different ways: \"\"parts fine,\"\" \"\"% gold\"\", and karats. ( A major point of confusion is between \"\"carat,\"\" which is a measure of weight for precious stones, and \"\"karat\"\", which is a purity measure for gold. The terms are used distinctly, even if they have the same derivation.) According to at least one source, the terms karat and carat derive from Arabic and Greek words meaning \"\"the fruit of the carob tree.\"\" Apparently, the seeds of the fruit, remarkable for their consistency, were used to balance the scales used by merchants at ancient bazaars [ 1 ]. Karats now refer to the ratio of gold found in a sample. There are 24 karats, so pure gold is 24 karats. The percentage of gold in a piece is therefore the number of karats/24. Thus 96.5% gold is 23 karat (23.16 to be exact)."

However, discoloration is caused by the reaction of certain metals against skin, in particular oxidation of the metal from perspiration. Real metal allergies will cause the skin to itch and turn red, and can sometimes leave a rash. Any part of the body can be affected by a jewelry allergy—a rash on the neck, itchy earlobes, red marks where jewelry has touched, swelling, or blisters—are all signs indicating an allergy to metal."

Deep cycle batteries are an energy storage units in which a chemical reaction occurs that develops voltage and results in electricity. These batteries are designed to be cycled (discharged and recharged) many times. While a car battery is designed to deliver a burst of energy for a short time, a deep cycle battery provides power at a steady rate over a long period.

AGM batteries offer a plethora of unique attributes that make them the clear and far away favorite. The fact that AGM offers more than gel batteries is not new. AGM models outsell gel batteries at about 100 to 1. The main reason for this is due to the cost difference. AGM is less expensive than gel batteries."

The number of charge-discharge cycles, the depth of the discharge, and the nature of the charging all influence the battery's ability to store and deliver electrical energy.jimh posted 06-10-2009 06:02 PM ET (US) Battery quality is generally related to battery price. Often comparisons are made between the lowest cost automotive battery that sells for about $40 and a premium AGM battery that sells for $250, or six times more expensive. This is something like comparing a vehicle that costs $20,000 with one that costs $120,000. Of course the quality of the product that costs six times more might be better. However, if one compares an AGM battery to a flooded cell lead-acid battery of comparable cost and quality, the quality and life expectancy of the flooded cell battery will be equal or better. The SURRETTE company has been making quality flooded cell lead acid batteries for marine use for decades. SURRETTE offer an 84-month (seven-year) replacement warranty. In contrast, many AGM batteries are sold with only a one-year warranty."

"text": "\"Prices are Canadian (CAN) dollars. For non-Canadian orders, the exchange rate will be determined by your credit card company or financial institution when your order is processed. US Prices are approximations based on the average exchange rate of the day. Low Voltage Cut-off Firstly, Kendrick does not use Deep Cycle Marine Batteries (DCBs from here-on) in our products but many of our customers do use them in the field. Some of our customers who use DCBs have asked us to lower (or disable) the Low Voltage Cut-off (LVC) of our dew heater controllers so that they can get deeper into the cycle of these batteries. Some have complained that the LVC feature cuts in too early for their type of battery. There is the belief that there is no harm in taking down a DCB below our controllers 11.6 volt cut-off function. The truth is that any lead acid battery, be it a Gel Cell, AGM or flooded batteries such as DCBs, should be cut-off at 11.6 volts. Not doing so increases the risk of damage to the battery and if taken down deep enough into the batteries charge, will ruin the battery. Having said that, the absolute lowest level a lead acid battery can be discharged to, UNDER LOAD, is 10.8 volts but this is not recommended (more on this below)."

"text": "They are all variations of the lead acid battery. The wet cell comes in two types; serviceable and maintenance free. Both are filled with electrolyte and are basically the same. Serviceable batteries have removable caps so the electrolyte can and should be checked regularly, they are easier to test as you can check the specific gravity with a hydrometer of every cell. Maintenance free batteries are sealed for life and the water level does not need to be maintained, they are usually calcium batteries. They also have a built in hydrometer giving some indication of the charge in one cell. AGM and Gel batteries are both types of Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA). AGM batteries are similar to wet batteries, except the electrolyte is being held in the glass matts, as opposed to freely flooding the plates. For more benefits see our Fullriver Product Advantages. A gel batteries electrolyte is gel like and immobile."

"text": "\"Charging Deep Cycle Batteries and Charging AGM Batteries Home Blog Charging Deep Cycle Batteries and Charging AGM Batteries Charging Deep Cycle Batteries and Charging AGM Batteries Incorrect charging is the main cause of damage to deep cycle batteries but can be easily avoided by following simple procedures and safety advice. Keeping your battery at the correct state of charge improves lifespan as well as reducing the risk of running out of power when away from home. Charging is also an important consideration when storing your battery. Deep cycle batteries will self-discharge if left without a load over an extended period of time and storing in an uncharged state can cause sulfation and damage performance. To help you get the most out of your 12 volt deep cycle battery and understand more about the charging process, we’ve put together a deep cycle battery charging guide. The Aussie Batteries & Solar experts are also available to answer your questions; just give us a call on 1800 853 315. Bulk, Absorption and Float Charge Battery charging occurs in three stages; bulk, absorption and float charge. Bulk charge refers to the first stage of the battery charging process, in which the rated maximum current is sent to the battery while maintaining a constant voltage. After this comes the absorption charge stage, which sees the voltage gradually lower as internal resistance increases. The final float charge stage occurs after the battery reaches its full charge and the charging voltage is reduced."

"text": "Power Star® Brand AGM Sealed Lead Acid Batteries10 Facts about AGM Batteries1. AGM batteries were originally developed for the military and so are very robust and can take much more abuse than wet-cell or standard deep-cycle gel batteries. As the electrolyte is contained within the glass mats, there is nothing to leak or spill and they are relatively free from freezing damage.2. As with other sealed batteries there is little to no maintenance with AGMs. Even more of an advantage is that most of them are 'recombinant'. What this means is that the oxygen and hydrogen combine inside the battery during charging cycles to form water - hence very little water loss and hydrogen emission. These batteries are therefore less hazardous than their counterparts.3. AGM batteries can be stored in otherwise prohibited areas because of their advantages of no leakage and no fumes. Another advantage of this property is that they can be stored on end or on their sides if need be without damage.4. The battery construction places the electrolyte in closer proximity to the active plate material."

"text": "\"Replacing BMW batteries....yes it is ridiculous Too many M's1/26/15 9:36am 19 7After the posts on Torque Affair's article, I thought I'd shed some light on this subject. This article was written in 2010, it goes without saying all \"\"F-chassis\"\" cars in BMWs current lineup also have the same battery technology. So pretty much every new model since the Bangle-butt E65 7-series. The electrical system in late-model BMWs is so sophisticated that it tailors charging as closely as possible to both the type and age of the battery. There's a computer that controls the alternator. When you replace a battery, this computer really needs to know if you've replaced the battery or updated the vehicle from a conventional Lead Acid battery to an Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) type; it charges the AGM differently than a traditional battery. This process of updating the alternator-control computer is called Battery Registration. Ignoring the registration process after replacing a battery won't necessarily trigger a Diagnostic Trouble Code or Malfunction Indicator Lamp ('Check Engine' or 'Service Engine Soon' light). However, be warned that skipping the battery registration process can dramatically shorten the life of a battery in these vehicles and- worse yet- damage components within the entire electrical system. Models that require battery registration:2002 and newer 7-series E65/66 chassis2003 and newer 6-series E63/54 chassis2004 and newer 5-series E60/61 chassis2006 and newer 3-series E90 E91 E92 AND E93 CHASSIS2007 and newer X5 series E70 chassis2008 and newer X6 series E71 chassis This Service Function informs the vehicle that the battery has been replaced."

There are many standard abbreviations of lead-acid batteries, and an explanation of what these mean follows: Wet/Flooded MFCalcium-Calcium VRLAGELAGM (Vlies)Hybrid The wet or flooded battery still dominates. It consists of all but freely suspended plates that are insulated from each other usually with the negative plate being sealed in a small polythene separator bag. The price factor is the main reason why this design is so prominent. Even though a normal car battery contains around 130 components, the production method has been refined and the material can be relatively basic. The result is a low price battery that offers something that is adequate to meet the needs of many people. A Maintenance Free battery, MF, is normally a wet battery where the design keeps gassing to a minimum and includes a battery box that is sealed to keep the gases in place. An ample amount of acid means the fluid can last for the entire service life of the battery without being topped up. Development has been made in three stages."

There is perhaps still a little time left for one final outing, but most – if not all – of you have taken your boats out of the water and gotten them cleaned out, “ winterized ” and ready for next spring’s trek back to your favorite fishing spots. You take very good care of your boats, motors, poles, reels and other gear inside the boat.

[ 1] In contemporary personality psychology, agreeableness is one of the five major dimensions of personality structure, reflecting individual differences in cooperation and social harmony. [ 2]People who score high on this dimension are empathetic and altruistic, while a low agreeableness score relates to selfish behavior and a lack of empathy. Those who score very low on agreeableness show signs of dark triad behavior such as manipulation and competing with others rather than cooperating. Agreeableness is considered to be a superordinate trait, meaning that it is a grouping of personality sub-traits that cluster together statistically. The lower-level traits, or facets, grouped under agreeableness are: trust, straightforwardness, altruism, compliance, modesty, and tender-mindedness.

Odbert. [ 4] Seven years later, Raymond Cattell published a cluster analysis of the thousands of personality-related words identified by Allport and Odbert. [ 5] The clusters identified in this study served as a foundation for Cattell's further attempts to identify fundamental, universal, human personality factors.

"text": "Psychometric Tests - Personality Questionnaires Personality has a significant role to play in deciding whether you have the enthusiasm and motivation that the employer is looking for. It also determines how well you are going to fit in to the organization, in terms of your personality, attitude and general work style? In most working situations it’s the personalities of the people involved that affect the day-to-day success of the organization. If a manager can’t motivate their staff or the team doesn't work well together, then quality of service and productivity will suffer. There have also been significant changes in the past 20 years in the way that organizations operate. For example, management styles tend to be less autocratic and there are usually fewer levels of management than there were. The move towards more knowledge based and customer focused jobs means that individuals have more autonomy even at fairly low levels within organizations. In addition, most organizations expect to undergo frequent changes in the way that they operate in order to remain competitive. All of these factors have contributed to your personality being seen as more important now than it was in the past. The companies that produce personality tests and the human resources staff who use them invariably refer to these tests as personality ‘questionnaires’ rather than ‘tests’."

"text": "For a country that features the word United so prominently in its name, the U. S. is a pretty fractious place. We splinter along fault lines of income, education, religion, race, hyphenated origin, age and politics. Then too there’s temperament. We’re coarse or courtly, traditionalist or rebel, amped up or laid-back. And it’s no secret that a lot of that seems to be determined by — or at least associated with — where we live. Now a multinational team of researchers led by psychologist and American expat Jason Rentfrow of the University of Cambridge in the U. K. has sought to draw the regional lines more clearly, literally mapping the American mood, with state-by-state ratings of personality and temperament. Which State Matches Your Personality? Take the Test According to the study, the winners (or losers, depending on how you view these things) were in some cases surprising and in some not at all. The top scorers on extroversion were the ebullient folks of Wisconsin (picture the fans at a Packers game — even a losing Packers game). The lowest score went to the temperamentally snowbound folks of Vermont."

"text": "\"Trait Theories of Personality Dr. C. George Boeree A trait is what we call a characteristic way in which an individual perceives, feels, believes, or acts. When we casually describe someone, we are likely to use trait terms: I am, for example, somewhat of an introvert, a pretty nervous person, strongly attached to my family, frequently depressed, and awesomely intelligent. I have a good sense of humor, fond of languages, very fond of good food, not at all fond of exercise, and a little obsessive. You see: I have just given you ten traits that actually go a long way towards describing me!Psychologists, especially personologists, are very interested in traits. They are especially interested in finding which traits are broad and possibly genetically based, as opposed to ones that are rather peculiar and can change easily. Over the years, we have had a number of theories that attempt to describe the key traits of human beings. Carl Jung and the Myers-Briggs One of the earliest trait theories was introduced by a colleague of Sigmund Freud's by the name of Carl Jung. Jung was never completely sold on Freud's ideas, and soon left his circle to develop his own theory. This is not the place to go into details, but one aspect of the theory concerned traits that Jung felt were inborn. These inborn, genetically determined traits are usually called temperaments ."

This phobia can develop into an obsession in which the individual spends much of the time thinking about snakes, and how to avoid them. This obsession can develop into a compulsion in which the individual spends much of the time doing superstitious, compulsive, ritual behaviors aimed at avoiding snakes.

Temperament is that aspect of our personalities that is genetically based, inborn, there from birth or even before. That does not mean that a temperament theory says we don't also have aspects of our personality that are learned! They just have a focus on \"\"nature,\"\" and leave \"\"nurture\"\" to other theorists!The issue of personality types, including temperament, is as old as psychology. In fact, it is a good deal older. The ancient Greeks, to take the obvious example, had given it considerable thought, and came up with two dimensions of temperament, leading to four “types,” based on what kind of fluids (called humors) they had too much or too little of. This theory became popular during the middle ages. The sanguine type is cheerful and optimistic, pleasant to be with, comfortable with his or her work. According to the Greeks, the sanguine type has a particularly abundant supply of blood (hence the name sanguine, from sanguis, Latin for blood) and so also is characterized by a healthful look, including rosy cheeks."

"text": "Instructor: Chris Clause In this lesson, you will learn to define agreeableness as a personality trait. We will also discuss how knowing a person's degree of agreeableness can be beneficial. The Personality What words do you use choose when asked to describe someone you know? I bet you would use words like honest, cruel, or smart to describe what makes someone who he is. The list of options is literally endless. I'm sure that without much effort at all, you could write a long list of words to describe someone's personality. Researchers in the field of personality psychology have long been interested in identifying what qualities, or traits, can be used to accurately encapsulate all characteristics of individual personality. Over the past several decades, researchers have designed and tested a variety of assessment tools in an attempt to identify which personality traits can most accurately account for the individual personality. What we have learned over time is that research has begun to clearly support a model that proposes to characterize one's personality based on five distinct qualities. Naturally, this model is most commonly referred to as the big five factors of personality."

"text": "\"What does the term \"\"Agreed Value\"\" mean? Agreed Value is an agreement made between the Insurance Company and the Policy Holder at policy inception that the limit of insurance listed in the schedule of property is the item's value, and this is the amount that will be paid by the company in the event of a total loss. The election of this option suspends the application of the coinsurance provisions of the policy. This is made by inserting an agreed value amount and expiration date for that agreed value amount under the Agreed Value heading in the Declarations page. An Agreed Value must be specified for each location and type of covered property to which the election applies. The Insurance Company may require a recent appraisal of the property or properties or an explanation of how the values were determined. At a minimum, it will normally require a signed statement as to the property values. If the Policy Holder fails to submit the updated statement of values, coinsurance will be reinstated. If a loss occurs during a period of time when the agreed value coverage is in place, the Insurance Company will pay no more for the loss or damage to the property than the proportion that the Limit of Insurance for the damaged or lost property bears to the Agreed Value shown for it in the Declarations page. Agreed value coverage does not provide complete protection against underinsurance, since the most the Company will pay, regardless of the agreed value stated, is the Limit of Insurance applicable to the covered property."

If you are involved in any aspect of the real estate business, sooner or later you will come across the term, \"\"subrogation.\"\" Most often it appears in leases, but you may also find it in mortgages, insurance policies, guarantees and other agreements. The phrase may appear in a document where a party agrees to \"\"waive his right of subrogation,\"\" or where it is stated that one party is \"\"subrogated to the claims of another. \"\" What is the right of subrogation, anyway, and what does it mean to waive it? Simply stated, the right of subrogation is the right to pursue someone else's claim. If you are subrogated to someone's claim, it sounds as though you are somehow subordinated to it -- but that's not what it means. It means that you may pursue it as though it were your own. It can arise by the express agreement of the parties, or automatically by operation of law. Let's look at a few examples."

However, if you are involved in an accident, they may give you a better understanding of the collision repair process. If a body shop estimator, insurance adjuster or your insurance agent uses a term with which you are not familiar, be sure to ask about it. Disclaimer: The definitions contained herein are provided as guidance and are generally accepted in the collision industry, but some may not apply in all states or circumstances. Act of God – Natural occurrence beyond human control or influence. Includes acts of nature such as hurricanes, earthquakes and floods. This is usually covered under comprehensive insurance and is not covered by liability and collision insurance. Actual Cash Value – Most auto insurance coverage only reimburses you for the actual cash value of your car. This is the value of the vehicle at the time it was damaged, stolen or destroyed. After a loss, your company will review the condition of your car's body, interior, tires and additional equipment."

In this life insurance glossary, we have defined many of these terms used throughout this website and, perhaps in your policy). If, at any time you come across an insurance term in Life Insure.com you don’t understand, come back to this glossary and look up the definition. By knowing the definitions to these terms, your study of the subject should be much easier.-A-Accelerated Death Benefit: This benefit is sometimes part of the policy and at times is added as a rider. It will pay the benefit (sometimes a lesser amount than the death benefit) under certain specified conditions, such as a terminal disease (check your policy for exact conditions and the maximum amount paid). Take note that if this benefit is exercised, it will reduce the actual death benefit by the amount of Accelerated Death Benefit paid. Accidental Death Benefit: A payment for loss of life due to an accident which was the direct cause of death. A provision added to a life insurance policy for payment of an additional benefit, above and beyond the death benefit, when death occurs by accidental means, as defined in the policy. Accidental Death and Dismemberment Benefit: Pays a stated benefit in case of death or the loss of limbs or sight as a result of an accident.

"text": "Actual Cash Value Versus Replacement Cost Value By Henry S. Zangwill | January 11, 2009Email This Print Newsletters Tweet Article 2 Comments Navigating the Valuation Quagmire As the saying goes, the devil is in the details. And insurance agents would be wise to explain the differences between actual cash value (ACV) and replacement cost value (RCV) to customers. Homeowners’ and commercial property policies typically provide that the insurer is not required to pay more than the ACV of the damaged property until the repair or replaced is completed. The typical policy does not, however, address all of the issues that could arise in determining the measure of recovery for a loss and when the insured can recover on a RCV basis. Although property policies provide for payment of “actual cash value,” they are conspicuously silent on how ACV should be measured. For many years, insurers argued that ACV should be measured by replacement costs less depreciation. That view was rejected by the California Supreme Court in Jefferson Ins. Co. of New York v. Superior Court (1974) 3 Cal. 3rd 398. In Jefferson, the insured suffered a fire loss to a hotel building that had a fair market value of $65,000."

Under this method of payment, interest only is paid periodically (monthly, quarterly, annually) and the initial amount borrowed, the principal, is not paid until the last day of the loan period. Typically, term mortgages covered short periods of time three to five years and there was normally little intent by either the borrower to repay the principal or the lender to demand payment of the principal. The original amount borrowed was either extended for another term at an agreed upon interest rate or the borrower would negotiate with a new lender and pay off the old loan. However, as a result of financial conditions during the Depression and the National Housing Act of 1934, which among other things established the Federal Housing Administration, term mortgages became less popular. Borrowers during the Depression were unable to pay the principal when it became due. Because of the tightness in the money supply, lenders were unable to roll these loans over, and thus had to foreclose. Over a million families lost their homes during this time."

The 3rd party paid us for the claims and is now coming back stating that the carriers are refusing to pay. Can the 3rd party deduct from their carrier on a different/future invoice other than the originating shipment? Or should I advise the 3rd party to pursue collections? Am I correct that the 3rd party is a broker (they do not have their own fleet) so is not governed by Carmack either? Answer: There are really two parts to your question - the liability of the “third party warehouse/transportation company” (broker) to pay your loss or damage claims, and the rights of the broker to collect reimbursement from the responsible carriers. As to the first part, you indicate that you have a contract with the broker, and that the broker has been paying your claims."

If a classic car is totalled by the insurance company, will you receive a fair value for it? Is there a way to lock in an answer of \"\"Yes\"\"? Fortunately there is. There are three different bases that an insurance company can use to value an insured auto. Lets first look at the one that almost everyone has on a typical insurance policy: Actual Cash Value (ACV)ACV translated means \"\"What its worth in cash, today (just before you crashed it).\"\" After your accident, an insurance company adjustor will go out to the tow yard and look over your vehicle. After that, using sources of their choosing, they will look up what the typical value should be for your car, and this will be their settlement offer. They may adjust this offer if you object and have some evidence to back up your claim. Or they may not."

One of the most important aspects of buying or owning an aircraft is the insurance policy and yet many owners (and even some financiers) are not aware of the basic contents or restrictions contained in the insurance policy. It is a little too late to find out after the aircraft has been damaged that your policy isn’t quite as you expected it to be. This note sets out a basic explanation of some standard areas of cover in aviation insurance and then examines some market practices and their effect on insurance. Types of aviation insurance1. Aircraft Hull and Liability There are several standard aircraft liability policies in the London market, but for the purposes of keeping it simple, I will focus primarily on AVN1C, which is the London Aircraft Insurance Policy. This policy is mainly used for general aviation business, as opposed to major airlines, which obviously require wider coverage than is provided by this standard form. It covers both the hull risks and the insured’s liability to third parties and passengers. There are four main sections to AVN1C: Section I: Loss of or damage to aircraft Section II: Legal liability to third parties (other than passengers)Section III: Legal liability to passengers Section IV: General exclusions applicable to all sections Conditions precedent applicable to all sections General conditions applicable to all sections Definitions Section I - Loss of or damage to aircraft: Insurers will pay for, replace or repair accidental loss of or damage to the aircraft described in the schedule under the policy for the risks covered (generally being flight, taxiing and ground risks). It would be common for aircraft policies to have a separate premium rate for flight risks and a reduced premium rate for ground risks."

"text": "Business Income’s Non-Coinsurance Options Email This Print Tweet February 19, 2009 by Christopher J. Boggs, CPCU, ARM, ALCMThree non-coinsurance options are available for the insured’s use if the prospect of calculating and/or explaining coinsurance still causes concern. Two options completely remove coinsurance from the picture and one simply suspends coinsurance for one year. The options are: • Business Income Agreed Value; • Monthly Limit of Indemnity; and • Maximum Period of Indemnity. Business Income Agreed Value Business income agreed value suspends the coinsurance condition for 12 months. Qualifying for agreed value protection still requires the insured to complete the Business Income Report/Worksheet (CP 15 15) at the beginning of the policy period and every year thereafter. If an updated worksheet is not completed annually, the policy reverts back to a coinsurance form with all its applicable penalties. So this is not the best option if the insured and/or the agent are trying to avoid the worksheet. “Agreed value” signifies that the insured and the underwriter agree up front on the amount of “insurable” business income subject to loss. The insured agrees to carry that pre-determined amount of coverage; in return the underwriter agrees to pay the entire business income loss up to that limit without the application or consideration of coinsurance or the actual business income (if the insured underestimated). To clarify, the insured is not required to carry or limited to the 12-month business income amount calculated using the worksheet."

Understanding The Difference Between Price And Value; Product And Benefitfrom the let's-try-this-again dept Earlier this year, in response to yet another editorial somewhere where someone insisted that if something has a price of zero, it means that people don't think it has any value, we pointed out that price and value are two different things. Price isn't determined by value -- it's determined by the intersection of supply and demand. Value plays into that, by determining what the demand part is. That is, if I value widget X at $10, then I'd be willing to pay anything less than $10 for it. If the intersection of supply and demand prices widget X at $5, it doesn't mean that I value it at $5, but it does make it likely that I'll buy it. The same is true if the market prices it at $0. It doesn't mean I place a $0 value on it. It just means it's worth getting at that price, since it's below what I value it at."

I had to check my calendar to see if it was April Fool's Day. I think this is probably the most useless type of insurance I have ever seen... and its not cheap! ( see Underwriter Launches Policy to Protect Against Eminent Domain ). For less than $300 per year, the policy provides up to $200,000 loss of market value when the home is sold, plus up to $50,000 to relieve the expense of moving as a result of eminent domain... The company claims that this was developed in response to the U. S. Supreme Court decision in Kelo v. New London. In that case, the Supreme Court held that a state could use its eminent domain power to take property from a homeowner and give it to a private developer for economic redevelopment. The decision was so alarming that state legislators across the country began working on legislation that would protect their constituents from such takings. Some have been more successful than others, but the backlash from the Kelodecision likely means that this type of taking will be more difficult in the future. What exactly does this insurance cover? When the state exercises its eminent domain power, they are required by the constitution to compensate the homeowner."

In addition, some careers may place employees in wild environments that are involved in commodity production, including forests, rivers, mountains, and natural other areas. It is recommended that those seeking a career in Agriculture and Forestry enjoy working outdoors and/or working with animals. The ability to work independently in potentially isolating environments is also a good trait to possess, as certain careers requiring fieldwork may place employees away from their homes and families for extended periods of time. It's also important to know that some of these jobs are physically demanding and can be dangerous, depending on what kind of heavy equipment you're required to use and what weather conditions you're required to work in. Aversion to hard labor is not recommended for those wishing to break into the Agriculture and Forestry industry."

Durham (NC): Duke University Press, 2009, pp. 113-139. 5. VERNACULAR COSMOPOLITANISM: AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL CRITIQUE OF UNIVERSALISTIC REASON Alfredo González-Ruibal Eïa pour ceux qui n’ont jamais rien inventé pour ceux qui n’ont jamais rien exploré pour ceux qui n’ont jamais rien dompté mais ils s’abandonent, saisis, à l’essence de toute chose —Aimé Césaire (1956 [1939]) Throughout this chapter I argue that our concern for others, as archaeologists, has been caught up in the neoliberal rhetoric of development, which helps to maintain and justify, in the long term, the inequalities it purports to alleviate. Moreover, some archaeological preconceptions in the past and some research strategies in the present have helped, in a conscious or unconscious way, to construct indigenous communities as dispensable or improvable. Here I propose another sort of archaeological engagement, drawing upon the work of Žižek and Bhabha among others, which is both cosmopolitan and vernacular in its scope. This archaeology excavates the present in order to understand from within the destructive effects of globalization, modernism, and development, and it explores the genealogies of collaboration between the discipline and universalistic theories of progress. In so doing, it intends to provide a more radical critique of the modern world than it is usually offered in our field of research."

History & Politics Feb 28, 2014 0 2766More than any other artifact, the great pyramids of Egypt tell the story of one of the most extraordinary civilizations to have flourished in human history. Seemingly indestructible, brilliant and massive, they were known to the ancients as one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and are still known as such to this day. A Final Resting Place For The Pharoah The pyramids were built as tombs for the supreme pharaohs of the Old Kingdom, while serving as a manifesto of their power as living leaders. Commissioning a pyramid was a pharaoh’s way of planning for his death. It contained all the things he would need to make a smooth transition to the afterlife. Like the kings they housed, the pyramids played a central role in Egyptian religion. As rich symbols and master tools in a supernatural struggle to sustain life itself, these enormous stone monuments were a source of pride to the highly spiritual ancient Egyptians. Learn why the pyramids were built in the first place here: Background: The Deep and Generous Nile The oldest-known pyramid was commissioned by the first pharaoh of the Memphis period in celebration of the newly-consolidated early Egyptian state. In 3000 BCE, Upper and Lower Egypt joined to form a single polity with Memphis as its capital."

It turns up again and again on Internet forums, sometimes referenced to Lawrence, sometimes just as “I heard somewhere that. . . ,” or “Since the worldwide average is 4.2 years. . .”Lawrence does not provide any citation for this figure in her book, and there are no ethnographic data to support the 4.2 years figure, neither for the modern world, nor for any time in the near or distant past.

But the fact is, associations like this do get bantered about, especially in times like ours when the welfare of pollinators is a hot topic. Politicians, taxpayers, and agriculturalists are asking, So, just how important are bees? For the most part, beekeepers have been quick to take a high view on this question. And no doubt, one of the rewarding things about working with honey bees is the fact that they are important. Important at the human scale – not just important to me or my fellow beekeepers, but important to the quality of life enjoyed by beneficiaries of developed economies the world over. This importance does not hang on honey production, but pollination - nothing less than our food supply. So it is with pardonable pride that beekeepers have been known to endorse quotes like the one attributed to Albert Einstein: “If the bee disappears from the surface of the Earth, man would have no more than four years left to live."

Africa is least equipped to effectively handle negative CC impacts of drought, biodiversity loss, increase in temperatures, poor air quality, loss of cultivable land. These CC impacts undermine the basic ecosystem services such as subsistence agriculture, portable water supply, crop and animal husbandry. Water stress in form of floods, droughts and El Niño affect millions of people in Sub Saharan Africa (SSA). The Socio-economic context is a great disadvantage to Africa’s food security. 66% of the population in Africa and 75% in SSA depend on agriculture for livelihood. Diseases especially malaria and HIV/AIDS are the most common sources of death and compel people not to be productive. Over 15 million Africans are refugees outside their domicile countries, while over 12 million are internally displaced due to armed and social conflicts across the continent and depend on WFP for handouts. Political context: In Africa, lots of human, natural, material and financial resources are being lost to wars and recurring social unrest. Ethnic and religious diversity and a large portion of uneducated inhabitants make the continent susceptible to civil conflicts often instigated by incessant struggle for natural resources."

This has given humans an enormous advantage over other animals in terms of adaptability. The human capacity for culture is based on our genes. You may call it a metaadaptation because this trait is an ability to adapt rather than an adaptation in itself. In this way, you may say that genetic evolution has created its own replacement. ( This is called vicarious selection, see chapt. 3.8)Biological learning theory talks about programmed learning, by which we mean a pre-programmed faculty of learning a certain ability.

"text": "\"Native Americans-- North America: Historic Background Evidence for human habitation in North America Dates back more than 10,000 years. The earliest arrivals came across the land bridge to Asia at the end of the last ice age. These first immigrants arrived in waves, and gradually worked their way south, eventually inhabiting all of North and South America. However, there is now evidence that suggests that other ancient migrations occurred across l the Pacific. Following sea currents and trade winds, people gradually crossed the Pacific from island to island, eventually reaching the South American Coast as early as 3,000 BC. The voyage across the Pacific to South America by adventurer-archaeologist Thor Heyerdahl in his polynesian built boat demonstrated this to be possible; Further evidence can be seen primarily in the presence in South America from an early date of agricultural products that are known to have originated in Southeast Asia-- notably chickens and cotton. Also there is evidence that sailors from South China and Japan followed the Pacific rim coast of Asia to Alaska, and down the American coast to South America, as early as 300 BC. These sailors, following prevailing winds and currents, might have reached the American Coast by accident, during storms, or have come as traders, and probably as settlers. Evidence in the form of actual Japanese pottery found in Central and South America confirms that such contact occurred. Thus we can see that not only was Columbus not the \"\"discoverer\"\" of America, Europeans were in fact relative late-comers to this continent."

"text": "\"Industrial Revolution: Survival of the richest, not the fittest'In settled agrarian societies, with law and order, reproductive success shifted from the violent to the prosperous'Roger Highfield12:01AM BST 04 Sep 2007A British economist is causing controversy with his new interpretation of what triggered the Industrial Revolution, writes Roger Highfield The Industrial Revolution saw the rise of steam power and mass production, with cotton mills, potteries, foundries and steel works sprouting up all over England's green and pleasant land. The seismic effects spread from Britain at the end of the 18th century and rippled across the world. It marked a major turning point in history that was as significant as the invention of farming in around 6000 BC. This period is seen by historians as the point at which modern society was born. From the bucolic stories of rural villages told by Jane Austen in the 1810s to Charles Dickens's depiction of urban poverty in Victorian Britain, classic literature gives a vivid picture of the revolution's impact. But scholars still argue about when the revolution really started, when its impact was first felt and whether it was too gradual to count as a sudden overthrowing of all that had been before. The most elusive element of all, though, is what triggered it in the first place. Now, that last part of the puzzle may have been solved by a British economist. Next week he will tell the World Bank that it was a change in the cultural - perhaps even genetic - make-up of society that paved the way for the machine age. In A Farewell to Alms, published this month, Glaswegian Professor Gregory Clark of the University of California, Davis, argues that the revolution was not industrial at all."

John Doebley It is now growing season across the Corn Belt of the United States. Seeds that have just been sown will, with the right mixture of sunshine and rain, be knee-high plants by the Fourth of July and tall stalks with ears ripe for picking by late August. Corn is much more than great summer picnic food, however. Civilization owes much to this plant, and to the early people who first cultivated it. For most of human history, our ancestors relied entirely on hunting animals and gathering seeds, fruits, nuts, tubers and other plant parts from the wild for food. It was only about 10,000 years ago that humans in many parts of the world began raising livestock and growing food through deliberate planting. These advances provided more reliable sources of food and allowed for larger, more permanent settlements. Native Americans alone domesticated nine of the most important food crops in the world, including corn, more properly called maize (Zea mays), which now provides about 21 percent of human nutrition across the globe. But despite its abundance and importance, the biological origin of maize has been a long-running mystery."

The realm was the birthplace of two of the world’s great religions, Hinduism and Buddhism, but there are also immense Muslim populations and large groups of followers of various other religions as well. Hinduism, Islam, and Buddhism are the top three religions of South Asia. While Pakistan and Iran are both Islamic republics, each represents a significant branch of that faith; Iran is predominantly Shia, and Pakistan is mostly Sunni."

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

"text": "What is an Agricultural Vehicle? Leave a reply No matter how many times we file form 2290, we have our own set of questions. Having said that, this is one question that is frequently asked by our taxpayers. And the question is: Can I file my vehicle as an agricultural vehicle? Well, the tax rate and filing requirement depends upon your vehicle type and how you use it. And this holds as one of the most important reasons why it is so important to categorize your taxable vehicle correctly while filing HVUT form 2290. Of course, after taxable vehicles, there is another special requirement vehicle and that is named agricultural vehicle. Agricultural Vehicles & Higher Mileage Limits: Vehicles are required to file HVUT are those with taxable gross weight over 55,000 lbs and that travel over 5,000 miles on public highways throughout the tax period. However, to give farmers a break from tax, the IRS made the requirements a bit more lenient for vehicles used in agriculture. Agricultural vehicles, regardless of their weight, are allowed to drive up to 7,500 miles on public highways each year before having to pay any tax at all!"

In January 1994, the United States, Mexico and Canada entered into the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), creating the largest free trade area and richest market in the world. The NAFTA is the most comprehensive regional trade agreement ever negotiated by the United States and is scheduled to be fully implemented by the year 2008. In 1996, U. S. two-way trade in goods under the NAFTA with Canada and Mexico stood at $420 billion--a 44 % increase since the NAFTA was signed. What are some of the key goals of the NAFTA?to reduce barriers to tradeto increase cooperation for improving working conditions in North Americato create an expanded and safe market for goods and services produced in North Americato establish clear and mutually advantageous trade rulesto help develop and expand world trade and provide a catalyst to broader international cooperation Why should consumers care about the NAFTA? U. S. consumers participate in international trade each day as they purchase goods and services that cross international borders. Therefore, they are affected daily by what they pay for the products and how safe they are. Trade is considered \"\"free\"\" or \"\"open\"\" when goods and services can move into markets without restrictions, and prices are determined by supply and demand. Nations sometimes erect barriers to this free movement of goods and services, such as quotas limiting the quantity of products imported, or non-tariff barriers, such as registration or labeling requirements, that create obstacles to selling foreign goods. These barriers can significantly increase the cost of the product."

"text": "AB 60: Driver’s Licenses for Undocumented Workers In January 2015, undocumented workers will have their first opportunity to obtain California driver’s licenses thanks to the passage of Assembly Bill 60 by the state legislature on September 12, 2013. The bill allows driver’s licenses for undocumented workers for the first time since 1993. The bill was recently signed by Governor Jerry Brown and means that California will join the states of Connecticut, Colorado, Maryland, Oregon, New Mexico, Illinois, Washington, Nevada and Utah, along with Washington, D. C. in allowing undocumented workers to legally drive. The bill is a major step for agricultural workers who risk their safety and legal prosecution when driving without a license. Who qualifies for a license? Under the bill, undocumented workers 16-years and older can receive driver’s licenses if they complete driver’s education and training, and also pass California’s written and driving tests. Unlike traditional driver’s licenses for citizens, undocumented workers will receive a license that states “Driving Privileges Only,” meaning that it cannot be used as a form of identification, to obtain employment, board an airplane, open a bank account or receive other public benefits. How does the process work? When applying to receive a driver’s license at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), undocumented workers will submit a legal document stating that they are unable to obtain a Social Security number and cannot prove that they are legally allowed to live in the United States. Undocumented workers must also provide proof of California residency. **"

What is the difference between a Certificate of Professional Competence and an Operator Licence? A Certificate of Professional Competence in Road Transport Management (CPC) is a qualification that allows the holder to act as transport manager in a road transport undertaking. It is NOT a licence to operate in the road transport sector. Every road transport undertaking must hold an Operator Licence in order to operate for hire or reward, and one of the conditions of the licence is that the operator must have a qualified transport manager, i.e. a person who holds a CPC. Operator Licences are issued by Road Transport Operator Licensing Unit. Certificates of Professional Competence are issued by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (see details in the Links section). Can an Operator Licence or CPC be loaned by the holder to someone else? No. Licences and CPCs are specific to the holder and cannot be used by anyone else."

"text": "Coral Henning May 22, 20140 Comments Law Ask the County Law Librarian – How many cars can you park at your home in Sacramento County?5 Min Read Q. Hello. I am curious on residential parking laws on vehicle ownership. I am a property owner in Sacramento County and inquiring to see if there is a maximum amount of cars one home can park on their property, operating and/or permanently parked in driveway, etc. Kind regards,ML A. The answer, ML, as it is to most legal questions, is “it depends.” There is no set number in the Sacramento County Zoning Code. But, there are circumstances in which having “too many cars” parked in a residential area can be a violation of the County Zoning ordinances. Section 301-04.8, Yard Parking Restrictions (Amended/Added 7/24/02), applies to all areas zoned for residential use in the County of Sacramento. That ordinance states that the size of the paved area required for vehicle parking or storage “shall be limited to not more than the greater of the following: (1) 40% of the required front or side street yard area; or (2) [t]he paved area leading directly to a carport or enclosed garage; or (3) 400 square feet. ”“Vehicle” is defined as any motorized vehicle, including but not limited to, cars and trucks, trailers, recreational vehicles, farm equipment, motorcycles, boats, dirt bikes, ATV’s, snowmobiles, and dune buggies. The paved areas “shall have a hard surface consisting of asphalt, concrete, or grouted continuous brick or cobblestone,” and “shall be kept in a dust free condition."

"text": "\"Humanities ›Languages Substituting 'El' for 'La' for Spanish Feminine Nouns Why \"\"El Agua\"\" Is Correct and Not \"\"La Agua\"\"Share Flipboard Email Print Tocar el arpa. ( Playing the harp.). Daniela Vladimirova /Flickrby Gerald Erichsen Updated November 01, 2017El is the singular, masculine definite article, meaning \"\"the,\"\" in Spanish and is used to define masculine nouns, while la is the feminine version. But there are a few instances where el is used with feminine nouns. Gender in Words An interesting thing about Spanish is the fact that words have gender. A word is considered male or female, depending on what the word refers to and how it ends. A general rule of thumb is if a word ends in -o, it is most likely masculine, and if a word ends in -a, it is most likely feminine. If the word is describing a female person, then the word is feminine and vice versa. Definite Articles for Nouns In most cases, el is used for masculine nouns and la is used for feminine nouns. Another rule supersedes this, and that is when the feminine noun is singular and starts with a stressed a- or ha- sound, like the words agua, meaning water, or hambre, meaning hunger."

It is consumed both hot and cold. It has a tart, cranberry -like flavour, and sugar or honey is often added to sweeten it. The tea contains vitamin C and minerals and is used traditionally as a mild medicine. In west Sudan a white hibiscus flower is favoured for its bitter taste and is customarily served to guests. Hibiscus tea contains 15-30% organic acids, including citric acid, malic acid, and tartaric acid. It also contains acidic polysaccharides and flavonoid glycosides, such as cyanidin and delphinidin, that give it its characteristic deep red colour."

"text": "Sacred Valley Sacred Valley Massage GIrls Reflect Poorly on Peru Mr. Peru 07/02/2012 3.2k Views The above picture is a typical path through Aguas Calientes, at the foot of Machu Picchu. Most of the streets of Aguas Calientes look like this and if you walk along one of them, you’ll find it’s hard to get more than 100 yards without some girl peeking out at you from a narrow staircase and saying, “massajes? massajes?”The same thing is true in Cusco, as you walk along it’s pretty rare for you to cover more than a city block without a half dozen girls offering for you to contract their services as street massage therapists. On my last trip to Peru, we were discussing this at lunch. One of the guys in our group actually wanted a real massage, but he really didn’t think that’s the type of thing these street massage girls were offering. I don’t know…I never asked any of the sacred valley massage therapists what they charged, but there are inherent dangers to young women finding work by standing on street corners and attempting to get tourists to take them back to their hotel rooms. The thing that’s kind of annoying about this is the fact that the sacred valley has NO excuse whatsoever to be in such a poor economical state that women have to resort to putting themselves in a potentially dangerous situation in order to make a living. I mean, the cost to enter Machu Picchu is S/. 128 (something around $40), and they sell 2,500 tickets a DAY so that makes $100,000 just on entry tickets to Machu Picchu. Surely that’s enough to fund some social programs so girls don’t have to line the streets offering to give massages to tourists for a living. Actually I had this discussion with a friend of mine recently about how much money obviously goes through Cusco and how little of it actually seems to ever get into the hands of the locals."

Getting There Fuego is located between the departments of Sacatepequez and Road map - Antigua is in the lower center section of map. Chimaltenango, in the central region of Guatemala.

"text": "\"Flag What is the Latin meaning of 'aguanile'? Answer by Angie Baez Confidence votes 130The phrase 'aguanile' is Spanish. It's the combination of the words 'agua', which means 'water', with the river name 'Nile'. The equivalent in Latin is as follows: Nilus; or Nilus Flumen. The word-by-word translation is the following: 'Nilus' means 'Nile [River]'; and 'flumen' means 'river'. ____ Aguanile is a Yoruba word (A language from Nigeria West Africa) In salsa it stems from the Afro-Cuban religion called Santería. You hear it (and other santería phrases) a lot in Cuban salsa. Most often you hear the full phrase \"\"Aguanile mai mai\"\" and it is part of the toque for the saint (orisha) Oggun. The term Aguanile mai mai is praising the Yoruba orisha called Ogun. Ogun is the god of war and metal."

Interscope Records, which is part of Universal Music Group, replaced Sony Music Entertainment as Idol ' s official partner record label. Interscope's Chairman Jimmy Iovine, a songwriter and producer, was named as the in-house mentor to work with the contestants on a weekly basis. He was supported by associated producers Rodney Jerkins, Alex da Kid, Tricky Stewart, Don Was, will.i.am, and Timbaland, who all helped the contestants tailor their song choices to their chosen genre of performance, while also producing arrangements for the contestants and offering original material to be performed.

"text": "\"Answer by Oshundayo Confidence votes 361Aguanile is a Yoruba word (A language from Nigeria West Africa) In salsa it stems from the Afro-Cuban religion called Santería. You hear it (and other santería phrases) a lot in Cuban salsa. Most often you hear the full phrase \"\"Aguanile mai mai\"\" and it is part of the toque for the saint (orisha) Oggun. The term Aguanile mai mai is praising the Yoruba orisha called Ogun. Ogun is the god of war and metal. He is the diety that works day and night without ever resting. He is the primordial black smith. He held the secrets of metals and forging tools. He held these secrets to himself until the orisha Oshun (river diety) seduced him out of the forest so that civilization could be created. He is also praised in Cuba in the religion of Santeria (La Regla de Ocha Lukumi)."

Any woman who is sexually active or is at least 18 years old should have a Pap smear. Cervical cancer is most commonly caused by HPV (Human Papilloma Virus). This is a virus that is most commonly spread by sexual contact. It is thought to be the most prevalent STD (Sexually Transmitted Disease) in the United States with about 85% of the adult population having had it. Once you get the HPV in your genital tract, it is difficult if not impossible to get rid of it. HPV is also the causative agent of Genital Warts. Some people with HPV infection will develop warts, some will develop precancerous and if ignored cancerous changes, some will develop both, and even a few will develop neither. These changes may occur relatively soon after infection or may not occur for many years. When should you have a Pap Smear?"

These estimated solar irradiances for the last 400 years are based on the NRLTSI2 historical TSI reconstruction model by J. Lean and described by Coddington et al. The values of the NRLTSI2 model have been offset a small amount for agreement with recent SORCE/TIM values and replaced by SORCE/TIM annual averages from 2003 onward. The historical reconstruction provided here was computed using TIM V.17 data in January 2017. It is updated annually as new TIM data are available or as improved historical reconstructions are created.

"text": "Pap Test FAQWhat is a Pap test? The Pap test is the most successful laboratory screening method used to identify women who may have a premalignant disease and are at high risk of developing cervical cancer. This is done by collecting cells from the cervix and examining them under a microscope, looking for specific morphologic clues as to the health of the cells present. Who should have a Pap test and how often? Recent (2012) guidelines set forth by the American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology, a consensus document agreed upon by professional and government agencies, recommend the following intervals for screening Pap tests: No Pap test screening for women aged 20 and younger Start Pap test screening at age 21Screen every 2-3 years for women aged 21-29Co-test with high-risk HPV and Pap test at age 30If both are negative and patient has not had abnormal Paps or HPV test in last 10 years, extend co-test screening to every 5 years Can stop routine Pap and HPV co-testing at age 65 if no abnormal history is present What is the difference between screening and diagnostic Pap tests? Screening Pap tests are routine tests collected and evaluated for preventive health visits. Diagnostic Pap tests are performed after a patient has been diagnosed with a cervical abnormality and is being actively followed and treated. Diagnostic Pap tests may also be ordered when the patient’s visit is due to abnormal signs or symptoms, such as abnormal bleeding. How is a Pap test done? The Pap test is a quick and generally painless procedure."

As with any type of HPV, in most people the infection will clear — possibly taking months to do so. In a few people, it will remain a long-term infection.

The test looks for abnormal changes in the cells of the cervix that could indicate a precancerous condition or cervical cancer. In most cases, cervical cancer is a slow-progressing disease. It can take years for precancerous cells to develop into cancer. This is why having a regular Pap smear is so important for women. When is a Pap Smear Performed? A Pap smear is commonly performed as part of a gynecologic check-up. It is recommended for all women between the ages of 21 and 65 years old. In women over age 30, an HPV test is also recommended."

"text": "\"Print Overview Pap test A Pap smear, also called a Pap test, is a procedure to test for cervical cancer in women. A Pap smear involves collecting cells from your cervix — the lower, narrow end of your uterus that's at the top of your vagina. Detecting cervical cancer early with a Pap smear gives you a greater chance at a cure. A Pap smear can also detect changes in your cervical cells that suggest cancer may develop in the future. Detecting these abnormal cells early with a Pap smear is your first step in halting the possible development of cervical cancer. Why it's done A Pap smear is used to screen for cervical cancer. The Pap smear is usually done in conjunction with a pelvic exam. In women older than age 30, the Pap test may be combined with a test for human papillomavirus (HPV) — a common sexually transmitted infection that can cause cervical cancer in some women. Who should have a Pap smear? You and your doctor can decide when it's time for you to begin Pap testing and how often you should have the test."

"text": "\"Sleep Disorders Diagnosis Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) in Sleep Apnea Testing Used to Assess Sleep Apnea Severity By Brandon Peters, MD, a board-certified physician Updated June 21, 2017Share Pin Email Print The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) is a measure used in sleep apnea studies and CPAP treatment. Credit: Science Picture Co/Collection Mix: Subjects/Getty Images If you have a sleep study such as a polysomnogram or even home sleep testing, you may receive a report from your doctor that describes the severity of your sleep apnea according to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), but what is the AHI? Learn what the AHI is and how the measure is used to assess the severity of sleep apnea and your response to therapy. What Is AHI? AHI, or the apnea-hypopnea index, is a numerical measure that accounts for the number of pauses in your breathing per hour of sleep. These breathing disturbances are typically associated with either a brief arousal or awakening from sleep or a 3 to 4 percent drop in the blood oxygen levels, called a desaturation. It is used to assess the severity of an individual’s sleep apnea. The AHI overlaps with the respiratory disturbance index (RDI), though the latter differs as it often includes other minor breathing difficulties. The AHI is part of the report from a standard sleep study for sleep apnea. AHI Measurement During a Sleep Study A sleep study called a polysomnogram is typically used to diagnose sleep apnea."

"text": "Sleep Onset REM Periods during Multiple Sleep Latency Tests in Patients Evaluated for Sleep Apnea RONALD D. CHERVIN, and MICHAEL S. ALDRICHhttps://doi.org/10.1164/ajrccm.161.2.9905071 Pub Med: 10673181Received: May 19, 1999Abstract Full Text References Cited by PDFAbstract Section: Although 2 or more sleep onset rapid eye movement (REM) periods (2om SOREMPs) on a Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT) raise the possibility of narcolepsy, patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) also can have 2om SOREMPs, which may then cause diagnostic uncertainty. To explore what features among OSA patients predict 2om SOREMPs on an MSLT that follows nocturnal polysomnography, we reviewed data from 1,145 consecutively studied patients suspected or confirmed to have OSA rather than narcolepsy. Overall, 4.7% of the subjects had 2om SOREMPs. Variables that were independently predictive of 2om SOREMPs in logistic regression models included male gender (OR = 4.4, 95% CI = 1.9 to 12.7), a 5-min decrease in the MSLT-derived mean sleep latency (OR = 1.9, 95% CI = 1.3 to 2.8), a 90-min decrease in nocturnal latency to REM sleep (OR = 1.6, 95% CI = 1.1 to 2.5), and a 15-unit decrease in minimal recorded oxygen saturation (OR = 1.6, 95% CI = 1.3 to 2.0). We conclude that among patients suspected or confirmed to have OSA, one or more of these four variables—male sex, sleepiness, nocturnal REM sleep latency, and extent of oxygen desaturation—could reflect neurophysiological mechanisms responsible for 2om SOREMPs. Consideration of these variables, and especially gender, may be useful in clinical practice when 2om SOREMPs are found unexpectedly. Chervin RD, Aldrich MS. Sleep onset REM periods during Multiple Sleep Latency Tests in patients evaluated for sleep apnea. Shortly after the Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT) was developed as a measure of physiological sleep tendency, investigators observed that narcoleptics, in contrast to normal subjects, often had rapid eye movement (REM) sleep during 2 or more daytime nap attempts ( 1, 2 ). Two or more sleep onset REM periods (2om SOREMPs) on an MSLT were thought to be highly sensitive and specific for narcolepsy."

"text": "\"Pairing seafood with big reds: Sesame seed encrusted Ahi Tuna and Mourvedre I love seafood, but I don't particulalry like white wines, which are typically recommended for pairing with seafood dishes. Several years ago, I discovered that grilled salmon pairs well with Pinot Noir, and that my penchant for big reds makes bigger Pinot Noirs, such as Irony, nicely complement grilled salmon with a spice rub. I've discovered what may be my favorite pairing yet between a seafood dish and a big red wine: sesame seed encrusted seared Ahi Tuna and Mourvedre. The peppery, spicy flavor of a 2008 Chateau Ste. Michele Mourvedre turned out to be the perfect complement to the peppery, spicy flavor of the meal. Here is what the tasting notes from CSM winemaker Bob Bertheau say about the wine:“Mourvèdre is traditionally blended with Rhone-origin varietals, but it’s the shining star of this wine with just a touch of Syrah for additional layers. This is a round and elegant wine that exhibits flavors and aromas of Herbes de Provence with white pepper spice. There is an underlying meat and earthiness that is beautifully complex all on its own, with an interesting juxtaposition of very soft tannins. ”For Christmas Eve dinner each year, we've taken to experimenting with non-traditional meals. This year, we found some good looking Ahi tuna steaks at Costco for $12.99 / pound, and decided to grill these up using a tasty recipe for sesame seed encrusted Ahi Tuna that I found at Grilling Addiction.com."

Sections Overview Presentation DDx Workup Treatment Medication Media Gallery References Practice Essentials Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)—also referred to as obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea—is a sleep disorder that involves cessation or significant decrease in airflow in the presence of breathing effort. It is the most common type of sleep-disordered breathing and is characterized by recurrent episodes of upper airway collapse during sleep. [ 1] These episodes are associated with recurrent oxyhemoglobin desaturations and arousals from sleep. OSA that is associated with excessive daytime sleepiness is commonly called obstructive sleep apnea syndrome—also referred to as obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome. The image below illustrates the sleep-related disordered breathing continuum ranging from simple snoring to OSA. Sleep-related disordered breathing continuum ranging from simple snoring to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS) occupies an intermediate position between these extremes. Note areas of overlap among the conditions. View Media Gallery Signs and symptoms Generally, symptoms of OSA begin insidiously and are often present for years before the patient is referred for evaluation. Nocturnal symptoms may include the following: Snoring, usually loud, habitual, and bothersome to others Witnessed apneas, which often interrupt the snoring and end with a snort Gasping and choking sensations that arouse the patient from sleep, though in a very low proportion relative to the number of apneas they experience Nocturia Insomnia; restless sleep, with patients often experiencing frequent arousals and tossing or turning during the night Daytime symptoms may include the following: Nonrestorative sleep (ie, “waking up as tired as when they went to bed”)Morning headache, dry or sore throat Excessive daytime sleepiness that usually begins during quiet activities (eg, reading, watching television); as the severity worsens, patients begin to feel sleepy during activities that generally require alertness (eg, school, work, driving)Daytime fatigue/tiredness Cognitive deficits; memory and intellectual impairment (short-term memory, concentration)Decreased vigilance Morning confusion Personality and mood changes, including depression and anxiety Sexual dysfunction, including impotence and decreased libido Gastroesophageal reflux Hypertension See Clinical Presentation for more detail."

The history of the Hawaiian luau goes back centuries with origins rooted in island culture, religion, and royalty. In times long past, diners at this traditional feast would gather to share the abundance of foods offered as part of Hawaii’s natural habitat. Luaus were common when a new king was chosen to lead the indigenous island community. It was a celebration and a deeply important cultural ritual that brought together the islands’ early residents. Before 1819, men and women were segregated during the luau, eating in different places. It was taboo for men and women to eat certain dishes together according to cultural lore. However, in 1819 King Kamehameha II broke with tradition and banished these ancient taboos. The King welcomed the women to join together and share in the islands’ bounty. The word, luau, comes from the name of a popular dish traditionally served at these festivals."

With today’s freezing technology, fish can be frozen quickly to retain freshness, flavor and color. As long as it is not kept frozen a long time and goes to the market quickly the fish will have a good fresh flavor. However, I recommend you stay away from packaged frozen fish, unless it is sold specifically as sushi grade. There are a lot of sushi grade fish suppliers on the Internet that provide fresh fish and frozen fish. Supermarkets sometimes have sushi grade fish. Most of the time it will have been frozen and defrosted before sale. This fish is okay when it has just been defrosted, but don’t keep it for sushi more than 2 days. Keep sushi fish on ice in your meat box part of the refrigerator. Tell the fish sales person that you need fish for sushi, ask which days fish is delivered and get them to pick you out some nice sushi grade fish."

"text": "\"Mouthpiece, CPAP Prove Best for Sleep Apneasave savedby Joyce Frieden, News Editor, Med Page Today August 09, 2011WASHINGTON -- Wearing a mouthpiece and using a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine are the most effective treatments for obstructive sleep apnea, according to a comparative effectiveness review from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). Weight loss and surgery may also be effective, but the evidence for those treatments was not as strong, according to the report, which was issued on Monday. The review examined 234 studies, and was written by researchers at the Tufts Medical Center Evidence-based Practice Center in Boston. The review looked at screening, diagnosis, and treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). For screening, the report found: Severe OSA, defined as an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) of ≥30 events/hr, is a predictor of all-cause mortality (HR 1.5 to 3.0). One study showed that this correlation was not seen in men >70-years-old or in women, the investigators noted. A high baseline AHI is correlated with diabetes (OR 2.81 to 4.06), although the degree of evidence for this conclusion was low. The Berlin Questionnaire may be an accurate screening tool, although the level of evidence for it is low. There isn't enough evidence to evaluate the effectiveness of most other questionnaires, \"\"including the commonly used STOP and STOP-Bang questionnaires,\"\" the report said. When it comes to diagnosis of OSA, the researchers concluded that at-home monitors \"\"accurately predict\"\" the elevated AHI levels suggestive of apnea, but that there is not sufficient evidence to compare the types of at-home monitors used."

Because the steaks are a uniform thickness, they make it a snap for you to put a nutritious and delicious meal on your family’s table in no time, whether you prefer searing, grilling or broiling the tuna. To make it even more enjoyable, have your family help you put the meal together before cooking. Flavoring Ideas Ahi tuna is very flavorful and robust, and you and your kids may decide you like its natural flavor without any enhancement. However, if you want to change it a little, soy-sauce-based Asian marinades work well with ahi tuna steaks. For other options, experiment with premade marinades or salad dressing mixes that appeal to you. Use boldly flavored ones that will stand up to the strength of the tuna’s flavor, and choose low-sodium versions to keep your family’s sodium intake down. Keep the tuna in a marinade in your refrigerator for at least an hour before you plan to cook it. The longer it marinates, the more flavor the tuna absorbs. Searing to Lock in Flavor Ahi tuna steaks cook quickly and can dry out easily."

In describing the religious concepts of the natives of these isles it is well to bear in mind that they had not evolved any such a well-defined theological system as we are accustomed to. It may then be said that the heading of this chapter is an appropriate one, and that it is more correct to speak of Maori religious beliefs and practices than to dignify such by the name of religion. Had the cult of Io been known to, and practised by, the whole of the people, then assuredly the term religion might have been employed. But it was not so known, it was confined to the few, and the bulk of the people knew of no cultus superior to that of the departmental deities. This secondary phase was in the hands of the priesthood, whose duty it was to placate such beings and to perform the rites pertaining to the cultus. The ordinary man had direct interest only with inferior beings of the third and fourth classes. Thus the religious practices of the average person of a community were but little removed from shamanism. The leading features of Maori religion, those of the greatest interest to the ethnographer, are the concept of the Supreme Being, that of the spirit world, with those of the spiritual potentiæ of man, and the institution of tapu. The first three present some novel and little-known phases and peculiarities; it is doubtful if we have acquired such a close insight into those of any other barbaric folk."

If you are looking for a delicious fish to make your family for dinner, you should consider purchasing some ahi tuna steaks. There are several ways you can prepare these steaks, but the easiest is to bake the ahi tuna. You can use aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Things You'll Need2 ahi tuna steaks1/2 onion3 cloves of garlic1/3 cup of extra virgin olive oil1 small green pepper1 small carrot Baking dish Aluminum foil Lemon wedges Video of the Day Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Get out your baking dish and cut a piece of aluminum foil to fit over the baking dish by two inches. This will give you extra aluminum foil to form a pouch after the fish is ready. Pour half of your olive oil on the bottom of the aluminum foil Chop up your green pepper into bite-size pieces. Then grate your onion, garlic and carrots into shreds. Combine and place half of it on the bottom of the aluminum foil Place your ahi tuna steaks on top of your oil and veggies."

"text": "Ahi is a form of tuna derived from either the yellowfin or bigeye tuna. It is frequently caught in warm Pacific waters and sold fresh. It is found in great numbers in both Hawaii and off the Pacific Coast of Mexico and Southern California. This type of tuna is tremendously popular in sashimi, which is sushi containing raw fish. However, some ahi may not be good enough quality for sashimi, because especially the yellowfin can swim close to the surface of the water, causing the skin to burn. The resulting “burned” fish remains acceptable for cooked dishes, but most sushi chefs will reject it for use in sashimi. Yellowfin ahi is particularly popular in sport fishing because the fish can be relatively large. They are sometimes also called cow tuna, but that is a bit of an exaggeration. There are, however, records of some ahi weighing over 200 pounds (90.71 kg). Bigeye tuna can also weigh up to 200 pounds, though average weight tends to be around 20 pounds (9.07 kg)."

"text": "e How Home Home Repair & Maintenance Electrical Repairs Definition of Circuit Breaker AICDefinition of Circuit Breaker AICBy Andrea Steine How Pin Share Tweet Share Email Save A circuit breaker's AIC (ampere interrupting capacity) determines how much current protection it provides. ( Image: switch image by Clark Duffy from Fotolia.com)A circuit breaker is an electrical switch used to prevent damage to an electrical circuit due to overloads or short circuits. AIC, or ampere interrupting capacity, is an important factor to consider when choosing a circuit breaker. Definition AIC is the rating of current flow that a circuit breaker can interrupt to protect a circuit. The typical ratings for circuit breakers range between 5,000 and 200,000 ampere interrupting capacity. An ampere is equivalent to 100 volts. Circuit Locations Circuit breaker AIC ratings must be equal or greater to the current available, or that can be generated, at the location in the circuit where the breaker will be installed. Determining the available current is done by calculating the fault current, or amount of current that results in a short circuit. Fault Current The fault current amount is determined by the transformer rating and transformer impedance, as well as any current generated by electric motors that may be connected to the circuit. Transformer impedance is the measure of opposition to the flow of an electric current between the transformer’s conductors, which are responsible for transferring energy between circuits."

Incubation function is usually done by institutions who have experience in business and technology world. Incubator support includes providing technological facilities and advices, initial growth funds, network and linkages, co-working spaces, lab facilities, mentoring and advisory support. As early stage mentors, incubators are an important part of the startup ecosystem. According to the handbook for Non-Profit Incubator Managers authored by IIMA’s Centre for Innovation Incubation and Entrepreneurship (CIIE), ‘incubation should be seen as the process of de-risking an idea or a start-up and helping them improve the odds of success. ’Role of incubators under the startup policy Incubators have an important role in the government’s Startup India Scheme. As part of the Scheme, the government has recognized 56 incubators across the country for supporting the startups. These incubators can recommend startups for availing benefits under the Startup India Scheme. Overall, there around 250 recognized incubators in the country (including the 56 under the startup policy) now and several of them are sponsored by esteemed educational institutions like IIMs, IITs and specialized startup agencies like Kerala Startup Mission. Startup incubators in India Government’s startup policy gives prime role to incubators by giving them recognition, regulation guidelines and financial help."

Announcing this on Monday (Feb 19) at the reading of the Budget statement, Finance Minister Heng Swee Keat said the levy rate for the first FDW employed without levy concession will be raised from the current S$265 to S$300. For the second FDW employed without levy concession, the rate will be increased to S$450. The concessionary levy rate of S$60 per month remains unchanged. The FDW levy is a pricing mechanism aimed at regulating the number of such workers in Singapore. Mr Heng told the house on Monday that in the last decade, the number of FDWs in Singapore has gone up by 40 per cent, to 240,000 last year. “ We must ensure that FDW demand is commensurate with need, and avoid an over-dependency on FDWs,” the minister added. Majority of Singaporean FDW employers — about 80 per cent — currently benefit from the levy concession under three schemes."

Ask Your Own Electrical Questionthe circuit is used on an VFD, for a 20 HP motor @ 460 volts, the circuit beaker at the panel is rated for 25 KA short circuit interrupting current, so how I determine the minimum amps interrupting current for this circuit 50 ft away from the panel Electrician: Kevin The amperage comes to about 32 amps, so you would need a 40 amp breaker Ask Your Own Electrical Question I know the load amps are 40 amps, the circuit breaker at the panel is 40 amps, and it is rated @ 25 ka for 480 volts, what I'm searching for is what is the minimum interrupting current on the circuit from the panel to the VFD (Variable Frequency drive). The situation is I have two different VFD's, one ABB rated @ 100 ka, and the other is a Danffos rated only @ 5ka of rms, so I need to find the minimum interrupting amps on this circuit, and be sure the 5ka are sufficient in case of a short circuit and it will not blow away. The ABB rated at 100ka is OK, because it is over the the 25ka from the breaker, but the 5ka may get on fire in case of a short circuit if the AIC from the short is over 5,000 amps, so how to calculate the current from a short circuit is what I'm looking for. Electrician: Sir Sparks The AIC to the service will need to be told you by your supply authority (engineering) and the AIC of the 5K AIC circuit can be calculated with the resistance of the wire. This will depend on the size and length of the wire, just use ohms law. The trouble is that all breakers are rated at least 10K AIC and I expect your circuit will be above 5K AIC unless the run is very long. Ask Your Own Electrical Question Also you would need to keep with the 25K AIC if that is what your service is designed for. Electricians normally go about this from the opposite direction because they want to make sure the breaker is able to handle the AIC."

Sure, having an SSD is great and we've called it the single biggest upgrade you can make to an older PC, but once you move from a hard drive to an SSD, you've made the big jump. But NVMe SSDs are even faster than SATA drives. If you have a modern PC, it will likely have an M.2 slot for installing one of these small, high performance drives. If you're on an older build or want to save $20-$50 while giving up some performance, check out the standard SATA SSDs in our Best SSD for gaming guide. The good news is that prices are starting to come down, and we've added Adata's budget friendly SX7000 to our list of tested drives. It's not the fastest NVMe drive around, but it is the cheapest NVMe model so far, and it's also faster (on the whole) than any SATA drive. That's not the only recent addition, as we've also tested Intel's SSD 760p, and there are more NVMe drives slated to launch in the coming months. Another bit of good news is that the upward trending prices in SSDs due to the NAND shortage are starting to come down. That's not to say we've reached similar lows as before, but prices are lower than last month, and we're optimistic that this trend will continue."

His nickname was \"\"Rooster.\"\" [ 2] The nickname most likely originated from men who used machine guns (see the second verse, first line) as when it would strafe an area the tracers would make a pattern that looked like a rooster's tail, but there is speculation that it may have been in relation to the 101st Airborne Division, in which Cantrell's father served. The 101st Airborne wore patches on their arms featuring a bald eagle. There are no bald eagles in Vietnam, so the closest thing to which the Vietnamese could reference them was the chicken. They referred to them as \"\"chicken men\"\". [ 3] In the liner notes of 1999's Music Bank box set collection, Jerry Cantrell said of the song: It was the start of the healing process between my Dad and I from all that damage that Vietnam caused. This was all my perception of his experiences out there. The first time I ever heard him talk about it was when we made the video and he did a 45 minute interview with Mark Pellington and I was amazed he did it. He was totally cool, totally calm, accepted it all and had a good time doing it."

Given a collection of models for the data, AIC estimates the quality of each model, relative to each of the other models. Thus, AIC provides a means for model selection. AIC is founded on information theory: it offers an estimate of the relative information lost when a given model is used to represent the process that generated the data. ( In doing so, it deals with the trade-off between the goodness of fit of the model and the simplicity of the model. ) AIC does not provide a test of a model in the sense of testing a null hypothesis. It tells nothing about the absolute quality of a model, only the quality relative to other models. Thus, if all the candidate models fit poorly, AIC will not give any warning of that.

The reporting channels are simple and clearly delineated, so that all participants know to whom they will report, and to whom they must convey received information ( Figure 1 ). Under ICS, the emergency response plan is generally broken down into five key areas, including Command (with the Command Staff positions), and four key functional management sections: Planning/Intelligence, Operations, Logistics and Finance/Administration. Each of these areas will be explained below. It should be noted that, regardless of the size of the public health agency, several individuals need to be capable of fulfilling the roles of the Agency Incident Commander, other Command Staff positions, Section Chiefs, Unit Leaders and unit workers. Emergencies may require 24-hour activation of the department of health, requiring relief shifts, and no one individual can always be available to fulfill a particular emergency response functional role. Figure 1: Organizational Structure & Chain of Command Text Version* Note that Documentation Officer is not a standard ICS position. Because of the nature of public health agency operations, some agencies have found it a useful addition. Command Positions Under ICS there is one Agency Incident Commander (AIC) position and three Command Staff positions: Liaison Officer, Safety Officer, and Public Information Officer. The Incident Commander may have a deputy, and the Command Staff may have assistants."

"text": "Home & Garden Home Maintenance Electrical Q: What Is the Definition of an AIC Rating? A: Quick Answer AIC is an abbreviation for Amps Interrupting Capacity, also known as Amps Interrupting Rating, which is the maximum number of surge amps that can be served to the equipment and still safely trip off when the amperage gets too high. It can be found on panelboards, also called distribution boards or breaker panels, and panel circuit breakers. Continue Reading Keep Learning How Do You Read the Information on a Digital Electric Meter? What Wire Gauge Is Standard for a 110-Volt System in a Home? What Is an Electrical Dead Short? Full Answer The AIC is typically 10k A, meaning 10,000 amps, or 20k A, but can be as little as 5k A, with the higher ratings costing more. This amount is in addition to the sustained current rating, which could be 200 or 1,200 amps, and it is a safety rating separate to the nominal load rating of the panel. The National Fire Protection Association's National Electric Code states that equipment must be rated equal to or higher than the available surge current and any amount below this can become a safety hazard. In the U. S., panel boards are usually placed in two columns and live electrical parts are hidden for safety reasons."

Introduction Designers, owners, and contractors are motivated by budget constraints to save costs wherever possible. Circuit breakers found in electrical panels and switchboards become increasingly expensive as the rated current interrupting capacity (AIC) increases. In facilities where the available fault current is high, this will lead to increasingly expensive circuit breakers. All of the available options to reduce cost should be considered.

We are not a human resources site, but we do have first hand knowledge what would benefit a candidate for a career as an insurance adjuster. There are certain things that would make such a candidate more attractive to the potential employer; things that can be included in that resume so that it does not end up tossed into the old circular file. First, you do need a college degree if you want to be hired as an adjuster. It does not matter what the college degree is in, or whether it is a B. A. or a B. S. The typical claims office for any large US insurance company contains adjusters with degrees in everything from finance or pre-law to English literature or teaching. Few if any colleges offer a degree in insurance adjusting; actually, we have never heard of one. ( If our readers have, please comment and share the information. ) You can get a job in an insurance claims office without a four-year degree, but it will be in a lower-paying processor or support role unless you have the years and years of experience writing vehicle repair estimates.

What does ADR mean in the criminal justice context? Assessing the use of ADR processes in the criminal justice context is attended by difficulty because of the absence of clear boundaries around the definition of ADR. 1 For this reason, much of the literature on ADR makes only limited reference to its role in the criminal justice system. 2Inherent in many people’s understanding of the notion of ADR is the existence of a dispute between identifiable parties. Criminal justice, however, is not usually conceptualised as a dispute between victim and offender, but is instead seen as a matter concerning the relationship between the offender and the state. 3 This raises a complex question as to whether a criminal offence can properly be described as a ‘dispute’. The goals of criminal justice also differ from the usual goals of ADR. While ADR is often restricted to consideration of the interests of parties to the relevant dispute, criminal justice involves consideration of a number of public policy goals such as, among others, punishment, deterrence, protection of the community, and rehabilitation. 4 For this reason, the state plays some role in many ADR-type processes used in the criminal justice system."

[ edit on Wikidata]Defibrillation is a treatment for life-threatening cardiac dysrhythmias, specifically ventricular fibrillation (VF) and non-perfusing ventricular tachycardia (VT). [ 1] [2] A defibrillator delivers a dose of electric current (often called a countershock) to the heart. This depolarizes a large amount of the heart muscle, ending the dysrhythmia. Subsequently, the body's natural pacemaker in the sinoatrial node of the heart is able to re-establish normal sinus rhythm. [ 3]In contrast to defibrillation, synchronized electrical cardioversion is an electrical shock delivered in synchrony to the cardiac cycle. Although the person may still be critically ill, cardioversion normally aims to end poorly perfusing cardiac dysrhythmias, such as supraventricular tachycardia. [ 1] [2]Defibrillators can be external, transvenous, or implanted ( implantable cardioverter-defibrillator ), depending on the type of device used or needed. [ 4] Some external units, known as automated external defibrillators (AEDs), automate the diagnosis of treatable rhythms, meaning that lay responders or bystanders are able to use them successfully with little or no training.

The term is usually used to describe studies of such phenomena by invasive (intracardiac) catheter recording of spontaneous activity as well as of cardiac responses to programmed electrical stimulation (PES). These studies are performed to assess complex arrhythmias, elucidate symptoms, evaluate abnormal electrocardiograms, assess risk of developing arrhythmias in the future, and design treatment. These procedures increasingly include therapeutic methods (typically radiofrequency ablation, or cryoablation) in addition to diagnostic and prognostic procedures. Other therapeutic modalities employed in this field include antiarrhythmic drug therapy and implantation of pacemakers and automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (AICD). [ 1] [2]The cardiac electrophysiology study (EPS) typically measures the response of the injured or cardiomyopathic myocardium to PES on specific pharmacological regimens in order to assess the likelihood that the regimen will successfully prevent potentially fatal sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation VF (VF) in the future. Sometimes a series of EPS drug trials must be conducted to enable the cardiologist to select the one regimen for long-term treatment that best prevents or slows the development of VT or VF following PES. Such studies may also be conducted in the presence of a newly implanted or newly replaced cardiac pacemaker or AICD.

Although occasionally children with certain types of cardiomyopathy do improve, the vast majority do not show any recovery in heart function. If detected in the earlier stages, cardiomyopathy may be controlled with long-term drug therapy and placement of a pacemaker/ defibrillator. If the disease is diagnosed at an advanced stage, critically ill patients may require immediate lifesaving measures such as placement of a breathing tube (mechanical ventilator) and administration of medications intravenously (i.e. dobutamine, dopamine) to improve blood pressure and heart function. Once the patient has stabilized, therapy involving oral medication, implantable devices, surgery or heart transplantation will be considered. A child's medical management should be done in consultation with a pediatric cardiologist, and possibly a cardiothoracic surgeon, electrophysiologist, and geneticist. It is important to do a comprehensive evaluation to pinpoint the cause so that proper preventative measures can be taken. Since each type of cardiomyopathy has distinct symptoms with a varying course, patients will require an individualized treatment plan for the acute and chronic management of the disease. Several factors will determine the required therapy such as the child's age, overall health, medical history, stage of the disease, and the child's tolerance for specific medications, procedures or therapies.

An automated implantable cardioverter-defibrillator ( AICD) is a small electronic device implanted in the chest, just beneath the skin below the collar bone.

When the heart is beating normally, the device remains inactive. If the heart develops a life-threatening tachycardia, the ICD delivers an electrical “shock (s)” to the heart to terminate the abnormal rhythm and return the heart rhythm to normal. An AICD consists of 2 parts: the pulse generator and the wires (also called leads). The leads monitor the heart rhythm, deliver energy to pace or “shock” the heart. The pulse generator houses the battery and a tiny computer. Energy is stored in the battery until it is needed."

[ 9] [10] [11] Signs and symptoms commonly include shortness of breath, excessive tiredness, and leg swelling. [ 2] The shortness of breath is usually worse with exercise, while lying down, and may wake the person at night. [ 2] A limited ability to exercise is also a common feature. [ 12] Chest pain, including angina, does not typically occur due to heart failure. [ 13]Common causes of heart failure include coronary artery disease including a previous myocardial infarction (heart attack), high blood pressure, atrial fibrillation, valvular heart disease, excess alcohol use, infection, and cardiomyopathy of an unknown cause. [ 2] [3] These cause heart failure by changing either the structure or the functioning of the heart. [ 2] There are two main types of heart failure: heart failure due to left ventricular dysfunction and heart failure with normal ejection fraction depending on whether the ability of the left ventricle to contract is affected, or the heart's ability to relax. [ 2] The severity of disease is usually graded by the degree of problems with exercise. [ 5] Heart failure is not the same as myocardial infarction (in which part of the heart muscle dies) or cardiac arrest (in which blood flow stops altogether). ["

As co-anchor of The Morning Show on WJXT-TV in Jacksonville, Bruce Hamilton always has a full schedule. So perhaps it’s not surprising that he didn’t pay much attention to his chest pain at first. “Like most guys, I’m one to ignore symptoms and not want to go to the doctor,” he confides. “ I had fairly classic symptoms of chest pains radiating down my left arm. I work some very odd hours, starting about three o’clock in the morning and ending sometimes around one or two in the afternoon. I thought it was just the usual daily life stresses that were getting to me. ”Bruce didn’t do anything about it, but others observed his reaction to the pain and urged him to seek medical attention. “I probably let it go a good six months,” he says. “ My co-workers at the television station would notice that I’d touch my chest, and they told me not to be foolish."

"text": "\"Peter Weinmann, 25 years in the pacemaker industry as product manager, clinical researcher Answered Feb 17, 2017Originally Answered: What is the difference between an implanted pacemaker and an AICD? The pacemaker assists the heart by providing a rhythm in case the natural pacemaker provides a rhythm that is too low or too slow. It is called bradycardia. The term AICD is obsolete. Now we use ICD (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) This device kicks in in case your intrinsic Rhythm is too fast (tachycardia). The ICD first tries to counterstimulate the fast rhythm wit a fast rhythm, if this is not successful it issues an electric shock to reset all cardiac cells. A pacemaker usually is a single device, whreas an ICD has an on-board pacemaker as well, to porvide an emergency rhythm after a shock has been given.511 Views · View Upvoters Related Questions More Answers Below A heart deficiency that needs pacemaker?
