"text": "Aristotle's Rhetoric First published Thu May 2, 2002; substantive revision Mon Feb 1, 2010Aristotle's Rhetoric has had an enormous influence on the development of the art of rhetoric. Not only authors writing in the peripatetic tradition, but also the famous Roman teachers of rhetoric, such as Cicero and Quintilian, frequently used elements stemming from the Aristotelian doctrine. Nevertheless, these authors were interested neither in an authentic interpretation of the Aristotelian works nor in the philosophical sources and backgrounds of the vocabulary that Aristotle had introduced to rhetorical theory. Thus, for two millennia the interpretation of Aristotelian rhetoric has become a matter of the history of rhetoric, not of philosophy. In the most influential manuscripts and editions, Aristotle's Rhetoric was surrounded by rhetorical works and even written speeches of other Greek and Latin authors, and was seldom interpreted in the context of the whole Corpus Aristotelicum. It was not until the last few decades that the philosophically salient features of the Aristotelian rhetoric were rediscovered: in construing a general theory of the persuasive, Aristotle applies numerous concepts and arguments that are also treated in his logical, ethical, and psychological writings. His theory of rhetorical arguments, for example, is only one further application of his general doctrine of the sullogismos, which also forms the basis of dialectic, logic, and his theory of demonstration. Another example is the concept of emotions: though emotions are one of the most important topics in the Aristotelian ethics, he nowhere offers such an illuminating account of single emotions as in the Rhetoric. Finally, it is the Rhetoric, too, that informs us about the cognitive features of language and style.1. Works on Rhetoric2."

Dear Word Detective: I recently ran across, though not with my car, your explanation of “criminy,” a word I’ve used since I was knee high to a grasshopper. Not being into the whole brevity thing these days I prefer crime in Italy while contemplating youth in Asia. Interesting that “criminy” is a workaround for “Christ” as so many words are. You included “gosh” and “gee” as euphemisms for “God.” So I started wondering where “gee willikers” comes from. Who or what is Willikers, and is his first name George? — Bernie. Hmm.

"text": "\"Who, What, Why: Exactly what does the phrase Boko Haram mean? Magazine Monitor A collection of cultural artefacts13 May 2014Share Reuters Militant Islamist group Boko Haram has gained notoriety with the kidnapping of more than 200 schoolgirls in Nigeria. What precisely does the group's name mean? The official name of the Boko Haram group is actually Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati wal-Jihad, which in Arabic means \"\"People of the Sunnah (the practise and examples of the Prophet Muhammad's life) for Preaching and Jihad Group\"\". But the Hausa-speaking residents in the north-eastern city of Maiduguri, where the group had its headquarters, dubbed it Boko Haram. And for reasons of brevity this is the media's preferred name. Boko Haram translates from the local Hausa language to mean \"\"Western education is a sin\"\", according to most media reports. But a few voices of doubt have been raised. How could two words convey so much information? The answer Group's official name is Arabic - Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati wal-Jihad But Hausa-speaking locals called it Boko Haram Haram means forbidden in Arabic, while Hausa phrase \"\"ilimin boko\"\" was shortened to boko and has come to mean Western-style education There doesn't seem to be much debate over the word \"\"haram\"\"."

So it should be no surprise that there is no one universally-accepted answer to the question: \"\"What is economics? \"\" Browsing the web, you will find various answers to that very question. Even your economics textbook, the basis for a typical high school or college course, may differ ever so slightly from another in its explanation. But each definition shares some common principles, namely those of choice, resources, and scarcity. What is Economics: How Others Define Economics The Economist's Dictionary of Economics defines economics as \"\"the study of the production, distribution, and consumption of wealth in human society. \"\" Saint Michael's College answers the question, \"\"what is economics?\"\" with brevity: \"\"most simply put, economics is the study of making choices. \"\""

Although your newspaper may completely oppose your view, editors want to present both sides. A well-written opinion piece with a fresh viewpoint has a good chance of getting published. A good op ed can transform the political balance of power. This is especially true when much reporting and editorializing is one sided, yet many people feel nagging doubts. Your op-ed should bring those people together by solidifying their doubts in crisp, cogent arguments. Your op ed is most likely to be published if you can \"\"peg\"\" it to a recent event. On op ed on congestion might be pegged to recent road construction, a rail transit proposal, or the latest congestion report from the Texas Transportation Institute. An op ed on housing might be pegged to publication of the latest housing opportunity index by the National Association of Home Builders.

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

"text": "\"PHOTO: Mike Gifford (CC)June 15, 2015The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees the right to “freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication”, but this right, along with all rights guaranteed by The Charter, is not absolute. Some types of free expression in Canada are crimes, such as perjury, distributing obscene material, and hate speech. The right to free expression is subject to “reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society.” Free expression crimes in Canada are constitutional issues, and the onus is on the government to prove that the infringement is justifiable. However, some limits on free expression in Canada have nothing to do with government restrictions or the right to free expression as defined in the Charter. One such limit is the civil tort of defamation. Defamation refers to harming another person’s reputation by making a false written or oral statement about that person to a third party. Defamation law is not about protecting pride; it is about protecting reputation and offering restitution to people whose reputations have been wrongly damaged. Although courts will very occasionally issue an injunction to stop defamation that has not yet occurred, almost all defamation cases involve one person suing another for damages from defamatory statements that have already been made. Tort law surrounding defamation law does not directly curb your right to free expression; it is not illegal per se."

"text": "\"Statement Presented by Louisiana Landmarks Society Concerning Proposed Removal of Historic Monuments The Louisiana Landmarks Society believes that our city’s monuments should be preserved as artifacts of New Orleans’ rich, historic built environment. The fact that statues or monuments put up 100 or more years ago may still remind us of persons and events now viewed differently from a broader and contemporary historic perspective does not rob them of their legitimacy as historic witnesses. Monuments serve as historic \"\"mileposts\"\" which mark the evolution of a city's culture through the years and how our ancestors, rightly or wrongly, experienced their set of values at another time. Monuments continue to hold value today through their ability to remind, explain, and teach. Other places with long histories are full of artifacts from earlier eras with viewpoints that may be seen today as lacking an appropriate level of historic balance and objectivity. Richmond, Virginia, with its Monument Avenue; the Japanese-American relocation camps at the Manzanar National Historic Site; and the Little Bighorn Battlefield monument are ready examples of how, rather than removal, new context can be given to old monuments, by lending balance or giving a fuller treatment to heretofore one-sided historic presentations. Further, we urge you to carefully consider the thoughts and conclusions of university history professors who have addressed these complex issues of what monuments can mean today. In that vein, we offer for your consideration and for the record the transcript of a recent panel discussion hosted on July 23, 2015, by the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities. We strongly urge you to read the full transcript, also available with audio at LEH’s website, www.leh.org, but for the sake of brevity we offer you the following germane excerpts: From Molly Mitchell, an associate professor at the University of New Orleans, where she serves as the Ethel and Herman L. Midlo Endowed Chair, Joseph Tregle Professor of Early American History. She is the author of Raising Freedom’s Child: Black Children and Visions of the Future After Slavery, and also the co-director of freedomonthemove.org, a database of all fugitive slave ads in North America:* * * * * *I think one way that’s helpful for me to think about is that while they are monuments and they were put up as monument-memorials with very specific stories to tell, for us now over time, they have become artifacts."

Craigslist Spend long enough cruising chat rooms, message boards or question-and-answer sites, and you’ll get used to common Internet acronyms such as LOL, WTH, FTW and AFAIK. Certain niche sites, such as Craigslist, spawn acronyms and abbreviations of their own. Taking the time to master common of the most common abbreviations you’ll see on Craigslist -- or CL, for short -- helps you make absolutely sure of what you’re buying, selling or giving away. For Sale Craigslist often takes advantage of the same abbreviated speak you’d see in more traditional print classifieds. This sort of brevity made sense when you had to pay by the line, and it blends perfectly with conventional text speak. Some of the most common sales-related acronyms you’re likely to see include OBO, or best offer, which indicates that listed item’s price is flexible; WTB, wanted to buy; and SVC, which stands for service. FS -- for sale -- and the logical follower of NLFS, no longer for sale, also commonly appear. Job Terms Like sales terms, many of the acronyms you see in Craigslist classified postings follow long-established print standards. These include PT or FT to designate part-time or full-time work; AA/EO to signal an affirmative action/equal-opportunity employer; or simply EOE, for equal-opportunity employer."

That is, the executive summary contains enough information for the readers to become acquainted with the full document without reading it. Usually, it contains a statement of the problem, some background information, a description of any alternatives, and the major conclusions. Someone reading an executive summary should get a good idea of main points of the document without becoming bogged down with details. An executive summary differs from an abstract in that an abstract is usually only about six to eight lines long. Its purpose is to inform the reader of the points to be covered in the report without any attempt to tell what is said about them. Covering no more than a page in length, the executive summary is longer and is a highly condensed version of the most important information the full document contains. Both the executive summary and the abstract are independent elements rather than a part of the body of the document. Both are placed at the beginning of the document. With the possible exception of the conclusion and recommendation, the executive summary is the most important part of a report."

Nikki claims that she's the most unpopular girl at her school (only slightly above the gym shower slime). Nikki only attends WCD because her dad arranged a scholarship as part of his contract as the school's bug exterminator. She has a crush on Brandon Roberts.

The highlight from Part 3, if you could call it that, was Vicki Gunvalson finally admitting she doesn’t believe Brooks Ayers has cancer. She “covered” for him all season because she did believe him until very recently. The other highlight was that no one screamed in decibels so shrill Andy’s dog howled backstage. Briana describes Vicki’s uncannily calm demeanor as being “in a state of shock” over how much of her life Vicki has messed up over Brooks. Or the five half a Xanax she took.

Brian is used predominantly in the English, Gaelic, and Irish languages, and its origin is Celtic. It is derived from the element 'brígh' meaning strength, power, force. The name was widely used in Ireland because of Brian Boru (941-1014) or Brian Bóraimhe, the famous Irish High King who unified the leaders of Ireland and freed the land from Viking occupation. In medieval times, the name was most common in East Anglia through the introduction from the Breton settlers who arrived in the wake of the Norman Conquest. It was later revived in the 18th century through a re-introduction from Ireland. The name Bryony is sometimes taken as the feminine form of Brian. The name Brianna (English and Irish) and the name Brígh (Irish) are the female versions of Brian. Brian has 24 variants that are used in English and other languages."

I did an informal survey over the weekend on my Facebook page as to what musicians were getting paid and the results sort of surprised me. There were a lot of musicians getting paid around $75 and the sweet spot was between $100-$150. Now before I give too many opinions, I want to say a few things. First, I know that money is sort of a taboo subject among musicians and especially Christian musicians. It shouldn’t be."

The text message is on its way out a little over 20 years after it arrived to revolutionise how the world communicates. New and cheaper ‘instant message’ alternatives available from smartphones connected to the web, such as Snapchat and Whats App, are taking over. The first text was sent on December 3, 1992, when British engineer Neil Papworth, 22, used his computer to send the message ‘Merry Christmas’ to a mobile phone. The number of texts sent in Britain peaked at 39.7billion in 2011, having sparked the new language of text speak, from OMG (Oh My God) to LOL (Laugh Out Loud) and XOXO, meaning hugs and kisses. However, this year the number is predicted to fall to 21billion, less than half the 50billion ‘instant messages’ that will be sent. The pattern is being repeated around the world, where the number of texts sent last year is thought to have fallen by seven billion to 145billion. The beauty of the instant message is that it can be sent cheaply through a smartphone app over the internet, rather than as a phone message via the mobile network, which can cost 15p a time. Users, so far mainly teenagers, can also communicate with several people simultaneously and punctuate their messages with brightly coloured icons. Snapchat, which is estimated to be used by up to half of all schoolchildren, allows users to send images, videos or text – known as Snaps – that disappear from the recipient’s phone after a maximum of ten seconds."

"text": "\"Leah Bourne, Contributor I write about what to wear to work and fashion and the workplace Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own. When Rebecca Selvenis, who works in Human Resources in Google 's New York office, set out looking for a dress for her upcoming wedding, she had three goals in mind--to find something beautiful, romantic and, most importantly, inexpensive. It's a sentiment echoed by brides-to-be across the country. Sure, they want a knockout dress for their wedding, but these days many don't consider it an expense worth maxing out a credit card or becoming indebted to a family member. This comes as a big cultural shift from just a few years ago, when women often spent more than they could afford on their dream dresses. Call it the H&M effect. Today's brides are expecting high-design wedding dresses for a fraction of the cost of a designer dress. According the Knot's 2009 Real Weddings Survey, the average price paid for a wedding dress in 2009 was $1,134, a drop from the 2007 high, when women spent $1,317 on average for a wedding dress. Perhaps more telling, according to a study released by David's Bridal this year--50% of brides to be consider it a priority to spend less than $800 on their dress, and 54% of those surveyed said getting a designer dress wasn't important to them.

Everyone woman should have the chance to \"\"walk down the aisle\"\" and have her special day if she wants that. Ideally you get married once in your life, it's a big deal and celebrate it in a way that's special to you two. Besides, I think there are plenty of single mothers out there with adolecent children and have a regular wedding once they find \"\"the one\"\" and they include their children in the ceremony (ring bearer, flower girl, etc)."

Stephanie Diani for The New York Times THERE are many things I might expect Marla Maples to explain to me, but the laws of kashrut are not among them. The former Mrs. Donald Trump had made a reservation at Prime Grill in Manhattan and texted, “Let’s wear hats!” Only when I got there did I realize the steakhouse was kosher. ( She was indeed wearing a hat, but it was more fedora than skullcap. ) I was roundly ignored by the host, but when Ms. Maples strode in in her leggings, cashmere sweater, bomber jacket and leather boots, we were immediately seated. The mostly male diners stopped in mid-chew to gape; she didn’t notice. “I don’t eat dairy, so this is a great place to be if I want to eat meat, because they don’t mix milk and meat here,” Ms. Maples, a kabbalista, said delightedly.

How would you describe what you do? We write and perform wedding ceremonies, vow renewals, and commitment ceremonies for couples in Colorado, California and Oregon.

But when it came to her recent nuptials, the actress wanted to keep things decidedly un-Hollywood. Tucked away in a Los Angeles botanical garden Oct. 24, and surrounded by a small group of family and close friends, the 24-year-old actress married musician Josiah Bell. While she describes the wedding as “beautiful, moving and personal,” especially since her pastor father-in-law performed the ceremony, Smollett says putting the wedding together was almost as much fun and rewarding as the main event. PHOTOS: They Do! The Year in Weddings“It was such a fun process,” the actress says. “ We didn’t hire a wedding planner. Josiah and I literally decided every detail together. ”And she even averted the dreaded bridezilla role by keeping her partner close. “ I didn’t have the pressure of wondering whether or not the groom would like certain things,” she says. “"

So we interviewed a panel of 11 'maids about why they were willing to say \"\"I do\"\" to so many different weddings and what they've learned along the way. Follow their pointers to be an amazing bridesmaid; just don't blame us if you get asked again!1. Being Asked is a Huge Honor The bride chose you for a reason: She values your friendship and wants you to stand beside her as she takes her vows and celebrates the beginning of a new chapter in her life. The bridesmaids that we spoke to say that although it might sound cliché, they feel it's a huge honor to be in someone's bridal party. Being privvy to a friend's most intimate moments is part of the draw. \"\" One of my favorite parts of being a bridesmaid is the time leading up to where your friend and/or family member says 'I do'... You get to talk about old times, help them ease their nerves and watch them transform into the most beautiful they've ever been. I love taking a moment to sit back and take it all in before we're hustled out of the room and get the bride down the aisle,\"\" says Samantha Irons from Cleveland, OH. ( Check out 200+ emotional 'getting ready' moments, here! ) If you’re a first-timer, you may be surprised to learn that there's much more involved with the role than simply donning a matching dress and waltzing down the aisle."

Hey, out-of-town bachelorette parties can be fun for everyone, but brides, listen up: Your friends are paying a lot of loot to party with you, so be nice to them. According to a bridal-season travel survey by Priceline.com (conducted among 1,016 adults over age 21 around the country) many millennials attending bachelor and bachelorette parties shelled out between $800 and $1,000 to do so; 24 percent of respondents cited that figure as a typical cost for such an event. Moreover, more than a quarter of bachelor and bachelorette partygoers reportedly did not or could not save in advance for travel expenses. Overall, though, the millennial generation doesn't really raise an eyebrow at the costs associated with wedding-related events, with 81 percent saying they weren't surprised. And anyway, millennials are well known to value experiences over things, and are quite willing to spend money on those experiences. Hotels and accommodations were the greatest expense for this group, with 38 percent saying so. In related news, the cost for hotels and accommodations was the most likely to cause tension within the bachelor or bachelorette party group, with one in five reporting the problem. See More 5 Best Bachelorette Party Destinations for the Bride Who Wants to Rage Similarly, when it comes to weddings themselves, finding an affordable place to stay is tough, many wedding guests report: The majority of respondents (41 percent) reportedly spend the most on accommodations, which is much more than airfare (21 percent). For those that attended group honeymoons (for non-millennial readers, that's actually a thing) 62 percent of respondents have or will spent more than $800."

"text": "\"Oct 2017 Skin Dermaplaning Benefits, Protocol And Training For Dermaplaning In The Spaby Eva Sztupka-Kerschbaumer Share View All Articles It is well established that physical exfoliation can lead to healthier skin with better texture and more elasticity, resulting in a more youthful appearance. Dermaplaning is quickly gaining ground as a highly popular form of physical exfoliation, making it a very important modality for today’s estheticians to understand and master. At its most basic description, it is the controlled scraping of the skin using a sterile, surgical blade held at a 45 degree angle to remove keratinized cells on the outer stratum corneum and fine, vellus hair (a.k.a. peach fuzz). The skin is the body’s largest organ, and it is naturally covered with hair. People scrub it, pick at it, scratch it, cover it, often neglect it and sometimes brutalize it. Skin is the source from which “bad stuff” is moved out of the body via the sweat glands, and also serves as the barrier that prevents foreign bad stuff (bacteria, viruses, etc.) from getting in. So at what point did humans start to proactively remove some of the body’s “original equipment,” and how has that culminated in the spread of advanced skin care treatments such as dermaplaning? Ancient origins Men have been enjoying benefits that mimic those of dermaplaning since ancient times due to their common practice of face shaving."

"text": "The Netflix logo on Sept. 19, 2014 in Paris. Pascal Le Segretain—Getty Images By Victor Luckerson November 24, 2014One of the main reasons Netflix is so popular is because of its simplicity. It’s painfully easy to queue up a movie on your laptop, video game console or mobile device and start watching in mere seconds. But that simplicity means there are a lot of features to Netflix that the average customer may not be using. Here, we’ve rounded up some useful tips to help you get the most out of Netflix: See What Movies Are Coming and Going Netflix’s lineup of movies and TV shows is constantly changing as the company gains and loses licensing rights for different content. It’s difficult to get a full picture of the Netflix library from within the app itself, but a variety of third-party websites can help. Sites like Instant Watcher and What’s New On Netflix offer a daily rundown of new releases on the streaming service. Finding out when movies are going to be removed is a little trickier, because Netflix has purposefully obscured that information. However, the site Now Streaming updates regularly with lists of movies that will soon be going offline. Get Better Search Options Search options on Netflix are fairly limited, which can make it hard to ferret out quality movies from the service’s vast amount of content."

"text": "\"Thinkstock Brenda Bouw Special to The Globe and Mail Published March 5, 2014Updated March 25, 2017Job: Wedding photographer Salary: It's a freelance or contract job and payment depends on several factors, including your experience, the size of the job and where it's located. Single-day wedding packages can start at about $1,000, average about $4,000 and can go up to $10,000. Experts say someone new to the business will likely start off with a couple of jobs during wedding season, which is typically late spring to early fall, while a more experienced photographer could juggle up to 25 assignments year-round. Education: \"\"Anyone can pick up a camera, take pictures, and call themselves a wedding photographer,\"\" says Laura Scotten of Vancouver-based Two Peas Photography. However, she says the \"\"truly successful\"\" ones have some form of technical or conceptual photography schooling or have spent time training with another wedding photographer before venturing out on their own. The job: A wedding photographer is responsible for capturing a couple's wedding day on film, which can last longer than the marriage itself. Ms. Scotten says wedding photographers are often the most active people on a wedding day, with the job sometimes starting from the time breakfast is served in the morning until the guests are breaking a sweat on the dance floor. \"\" It is not unusual for a wedding photographer's workday to be 10-plus hours long,\"\" Ms. Scotten says. In some cultures, the wedding can last all weekend. By the numbers: The average Canadian wedding costs $26,961, according to a study from Ratesupermarket.ca."

"text": "What Gear Does a Wedding Photographer Need? In Portrait by Jim Harmer 12 Comments A Bridezilla and her prey Gear isn't everything. We all need to recognize that a truly great photographer could do 95% of his work with a point-and-shoot. However, shooting a wedding is mission critical work. If a photographer has any respect for her client, she will show the courtesy of using the proper gear for the job. I wrote this post in response to several readers who asked what gear they should buy as they slowly improve their skills to the point where they are brave enough to shoot a wedding. Wedding photography gear #1: A mid to high-end DSLR. I cringe to write that a Canon Rebel or Nikon D3100 would not be suitable for a wedding. I know perfectly well that I could shoot a wedding with those cameras without any problem. The trouble is that nearly everyone these days has a Canon Rebel or entry-level Nikon DSLR, and it doesn't instill any confidence in the client if their camera is nicer than yours."

"text": "\"Ohms & Impedences Explained All audio equipment comes with an OHMS Ω rating. Some equipment, especially amps, have multiple OHMS ratings. But what does it all mean, and why is it all so important ? OHMS are a way of measuring Resistance. Resistance is the measurement of an electrical device or circuits ability to flow electricity. Low resistance means the device is able to \"\"pass\"\" more electricity, high resistance means it \"\"passes\"\" less. Resistance is a Static measurement (it does not change). Speakers do not have a resistance, as whilst the cone moves the effect of the magnets in the motor causes the resistance to change. This dynamically changing resistance is called Impedence. It is still measured in OHMS, and is the Resistance of the Speakers Coil at rest (not connected)."

"text": "Subwoofer 101: Single Voice Coil or Dual Voice Coil May 23, 2014 By Jeremy Lambertson 1 Comment Should I get a single voice coil woofer (SVC) or a dual voice coil (DVC) for your car audio system? Along with “ What size woofer do I need ,” this is a very common question, and one that is not easily answered. Really, neither an SVC or a DVC woofer is “better” than the other. All things being equal, one will not produce more bass than the other. It is more about producing the right ohm load for the amplifier that you are running. Ohms are a measurement of electrical resistance. The less resistance, the more power that the amp will put out. Of course, this is limited by the power supply in the amp, and the load that the manufacturer has determined that the amp can run without a high chance for failure. If an amplifier is rated to deliver 500 watts into a 1 ohm load, then you will get the most power out of the amplifier at that load. If you run a 2 ohm load into that amp then with twice the resistance you will get half the power – so it is important to match the amplifiers rated ohm load with the proper woofers to reach that load."

"text": "Wheatstone Bridge The Wheatstone Bridge is the name given to a combination of four resistances connected to give a null center value The Wheatstone Bridge was originally developed by Charles Wheatstone to measure unknown resistance values and as a means of calibrating measuring instruments, voltmeters, ammeters, etc, by the use of a long resistive slide wire. Although today digital multimeters provide the simplest way to measure a resistance. The Wheatstone Bridge can still be used to measure very low values of resistances down in the milli-Ohms range. The Wheatstone bridge (or resistance bridge) circuit can be used in a number of applications and today, with modern operational amplifiers we can use the Wheatstone Bridge Circuit to interface various transducers and sensors to these amplifier circuits. The Wheatstone Bridge circuit is nothing more than two simple series-parallel arrangements of resistances connected between a voltage supply terminal and ground producing zero voltage difference between the two parallel branches when balanced. A Wheatstone bridge circuit has two input terminals and two output terminals consisting of four resistors configured in a diamond-like arrangement as shown. This is typical of how the Wheatstone bridge is drawn. The Wheatstone Bridge When balanced, the Wheatstone bridge can be analysed simply as two series strings in parallel. In our tutorial about Resistors in Series, we saw that each resistor within the series chain produces an IR drop, or voltage drop across itself as a consequence of the current flowing through it as defined by Ohms Law. Consider the series circuit below."

It is specifically formulated to deliver the right frequencies with the optimum transfer rate to the top of your guitar every time. Because of the way TUSQ is made, it is a consistent material that is rich in tone and harmonic content. How is TUSQ different from any other material (bone, micarta, and corian) used in nuts and saddles? TUSQ is a very resonant material. This resonance alone will give you a very full and deep sound that will amplify your tone to a whole new level. Secondly, it's a consistent material, allowing every note you play to sound just as clear and full as the next. In comparison, bone has natural grains which cause dead spots. These dead spots damp balance in tone and harmonic content."

"text": "\"Home Buying Guides Computers/Tablets & Networking Home Networking & Connectivity Boosters, Extenders & Antennas How to Install a Wi-Fi Boostere Bay 37K Views 3 Likes Like Share March 7, 2016Most homes and offices have an array of digital devices that rely on Wi-Fi to connect to the Internet, but standard routers often have a limited range resulting in dead spots where the wireless signal is not available. The solution is to install a Wi-Fi booster to increase the range of the router signal throughout the building. There are several signal boosting options, and it is important to choose one that is compatible with the brand of router being used. Choosing the Right Wi-Fi Booster Solution There are three basic options for extending your Wi-Fi signal strength beyond the standard range of your router. For very large buildings, choosing an Ethernet over power system that piggybacks remote Wi-Fi transmitters on the existing electrical wiring can be the most practical solution. For most homes and small offices a simple Wi-Fi amplifier is a simple way to increase the range of connectivity, while for laptops and tablets a USB Wi-Fi booster is the most practical way to increase the signal strength for the device. There are also commercial Wi-Fi signal range boosters that connect to the router to amplify the overall signal strength to increase the range. These units provide a boost from 1W to 4W and connect to the existing router via coaxial cable, adding an antenna to it to increase its effective range. Type of Wi-Fi Booster Suitable Uses Ethernet over Power Wi-Fi amplifier Best for multi story buildings and larger premises USB Wi-Fi booster Effective for increasing signal strength to older machines and mobile computers Wi-Fi signal range booster Suited to boosting Wi-Fi for cafes and showrooms or classrooms Wi-Fi booster bridge Best for most households with dead spots in Wi-Fi signal Each type of Wi-Fi booster will be best suited to a specific situation. For larger spaces the Ethernet over power units deliver the signal exactly where it is needed, while Wi-Fi booster bridges provide a general boost for home or small office use."

Introduced in 1959, the ST-70 is the world’s most prolific stand alone amplifier with over 300,000 units manufactured. Amazingly, its clear, three-dimensional sound is comparable to many amplifiers made today. Mc Intosh MC3500 While the MC2505 put the signature big blue meters in the market, many people consider this the greatest amplifier ever made. Released in 1968 (as the MI350) for commercial applications, it eclipsed any amplifier of the day with an extraordinary 350 watts per channel. The consumer version, MC3500 established Mc Intosh as the premier audio company of the day. Phase Linear 700 It was 1970 and Bob Carver saw the future and brought to market a product that would set the stage for a new audio segment—affordable, mass-market, high-performance audio.

The body is one of the most important factors in shaping the overall tone of a guitar. It provides the resonance that shapes the tonal qualities. It determines the volume of acoustic guitars and affects the sustain of electric guitars. Resonance is affected by:the types of wood usedwhether the body is made from layered woods (ply) or single pieceswhether the body is hollow or solidthe shape and size of the body The woods listed below are used in the construction of both acoustic and electric guitars. Tone wood [ edit]Agathis (also known as Commercial Grade Mahogany or Poor Man's Mahogany) is a tropical pine commonly found throughout south-east Asia.

Disappointed you can’t play your old recordings in your new car CD player? I'll show you how to convert all your old favorite recorded tapes onto CD's so you can play them in any CD player and even archive the music on your computer as an mp3!Steps1 Be aware that the most important part of doing this right is to make sure that all your electronics are properly connected. Double-check all your connections with these instructions to make sure you have everything connected before you begin recording. Do not plug in any power cords until all the other connections are made; this will reduce the chance for electrical shock.2 Connect the tape player to the amplifier. To do this, connect one end of an L-R cable to the OUTPUT jacks of the tape player, and connect the other end of the L-R cable to a set of INPUT jacks on the amplifier. ( Note: you can plug the cable into any set of input jacks on the amplifier, so long as when you begin recording, you set the amplifier to play music from that input)3 Connect the CD recorder to the amplifier. To do this, connect one end of an L-R cable to the INPUT jacks of the CD Recorder, and connect the other end of the L-R cable to a set of OUTPUT jacks on the amplifier.

DIs are frequently used to connect an electric guitar, electronic piano, or electric bass to a mixing console’s microphone input. The DI performs level matching, balancing, and either active buffering or passive impedance bridging to minimize noise, distortion, and ground loops. DIs do not perform impedance matching. DI (pronounced dee EYE, not \"\"DIE\"\" as in \"\"die feedback, die!\"\") is variously claimed to stand for direct input, direct injection or direct interface. DI units are used with professional and semi-professional PA systems and sound recording studios. The basic component of a DI unit is a step-down transformer.

Guitar A classical guitar with nylon strings String instrument Classification String instrument Hornbostel–Sachs classification 321.322 (Composite chordophone)Playing range (a standard tuned guitar)Related instruments Bowed and plucked string instruments The guitar is a fretted musical instrument that usually has six strings. [ 1] The sound is projected either acoustically, using a hollow wooden or plastic and wood box (for an acoustic guitar ), or through electrical amplifier and a speaker (for an electric guitar ). It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings with the fingers, thumb or fingernails of the right hand or with a pick while fretting (or pressing against the frets) the strings with the fingers of the left hand. The guitar is a type of chordophone, traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut, nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other chordophones by its construction and tuning. The modern guitar was preceded by the gittern, the vihuela, the four- course Renaissance guitar, and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed to the development of the modern six-string instrument. There are three main types of modern acoustic guitar: the classical guitar (nylon-string guitar), the steel-string acoustic guitar, and the archtop guitar, which is sometimes called a \"\" jazz guitar \"\". The tone of an acoustic guitar is produced by the strings' vibration, amplified by the hollow body of the guitar, which acts as a resonating chamber. The classical guitar is often played as a solo instrument using a comprehensive finger-picking technique where each string is plucked individually by the player's fingers, as opposed to being strummed. The term \"\"finger-picking\"\" can also refer to a specific tradition of folk, blues, bluegrass, and country guitar playing in the United States."

It is a transposing instrument and is typically notated one octave higher than tuned to avoid excessive ledger lines below the staff. The double bass is the only modern bowed string instrument that is tuned in fourths (like a viol ), rather than fifths, with strings usually tuned to E 1, A 1, D 2and G 2. The instrument's exact lineage is still a matter of some debate, with scholars divided on whether the bass is derived from the viol or the violin family. The double bass is a standard member of the orchestra's string section, [1] as well as the concert band, and is featured in concertos, solo and chamber music [2] in Western classical music. The bass is used in a range of other genres, such as jazz, 1950s-style blues and rock and roll, rockabilly, psychobilly, traditional country music, bluegrass, tango and many types of folk music. The double bass is played with a bow (arco) or by plucking the strings ( pizzicato )."

As you sift through all of the different manufacturers, you might notice that the word “ohms” appears often. Have you found yourself wondering, “Well the subwoofer is 2 ohms, so I should probably get an amplifier at 2 ohms?” In most cases you would be incorrect, for various reasons. To avoid confusion, we’ll let scientists deal with Ohm’s Law and instead focus on the actual matching process. In this article I will explain to you how to match a subwoofer and amplifier so you do not end up blowing any fuses, mentally or physically. There are a few criteria we have to look at first. For example, the distinction between a monoblock amplifier and a 2-channel amplifier, as well as the difference of a single voice coil subwoofer versus a dual voice coil subwoofer. I will discuss these categorically and explain each one, so when it is all said and done, you just have to match up your equipment in a chart to find the answer!"

"text": "\"What is a Load Cell? How do Load Cells Work? Sensors are devices (usually electro-mechanical) which help us measure a physical parameter (such as temperature, pressure, force, acceleration etc.) by providing a signal that either quantitatively measures (level) that physical parameter or provides a simple binary signal that indicates a yes/no signal that tells us if something occurred or not (such as a touch sensor). Most sensors require power to be provided to a sensing element and an electrical signal is then generated after the measurement. What is a load cell? A load cell is a sensor or a transducer that converts a load or force acting on it into an electronic signal. This electronic signal can be a voltage change, current change or frequency change depending on the type of load cell and circuitry used. There are many different kinds of load cells. We offer resistive load cells and capacitive load cells."

A 4 ohm speaker is a speaker with a nominal input impedance of 4 ohms. That's clear. But what's an 8 ohm amp? That cannot be an amplifier with a nominal output impedance of 8 ohms, because all audio amplifiers have an output impedance of less than 0.1 ohms. There are 4, 6, 8 ohm speakers with this input impedance, but no 4, 6, 8 ohm amplifiers with this output impedance. It is customary for the connection of audio devices to talk of the source and load impedance or output and input impedance. If we hear something of an \"\"8 ohm amplifier\"\", then we think usually of the 8 ohm loudspeakers. Here are people asking for help in the forums."

Expand All Sections Collapse All Sections Relationships Related Elements Defining Method Configurations Defining Method Content Elements Defining Plugins Defining Processes Structuring a Practice Structuring the Practice Framework Core Back to top Main Description In general, all noncontributing method elements need a brief description. A brief description provides a one or two sentence description of what the element is (in other words, what content the element contains). Brief descriptions should be written at the time the element is identified. A well-written description is important because if you find it hard to describe what an element is, it may not be a good element Follow these guidelines when developing method element brief descriptions: Do not include presentation names in brief descriptions because that makes it harder to change the presentation name. Instead, refer to \"\"this <element type>\"\", where <element type> is the type of method element. For example, “this role”... or “this guidance\"\". Do not state the obvious. The brief description should not just repeat what can be understood from the element type and the presentation name. For example, for Concept: Pattern, don't just say, \"\"This concept describes what a Pattern is\"\"."

"text": "Political Representation First published Mon Jan 2, 2006; substantive revision Fri Jan 6, 2017The concept of political representation is misleadingly simple: everyone seems to know what it is, yet few can agree on any particular definition. In fact, there is an extensive literature that offers many different definitions of this elusive concept. [ Classic treatments of the concept of political representations within this literature include Pennock and Chapman 1968; Pitkin, 1967 and Schwartz, 1988.] Hanna Pitkin (1967) provides, perhaps, one of the most straightforward definitions: to represent is simply to “make present again.” On this definition, political representation is the activity of making citizens’ voices, opinions, and perspectives “present” in public policy making processes. Political representation occurs when political actors speak, advocate, symbolize, and act on the behalf of others in the political arena. In short, political representation is a kind of political assistance. This seemingly straightforward definition, however, is not adequate as it stands. For it leaves the concept of political representation underspecified. Indeed, as we will see, the concept of political representation has multiple and competing dimensions: our common understanding of political representation is one that contains different, and conflicting, conceptions of how political representatives should represent and so holds representatives to standards that are mutually incompatible."

Solution-focused brief therapy deliberately utilizes the language and symbols of “solution and strengths” in treatment and postulates that positive and long-lasting change can occur in a relatively brief period of time by focusing on the solution-building process instead of focusing on the problems. Currently, this practice model has been adopted in diverse social work practice settings with different client populations, which could be partly accounted by the fact that the assumptions and practice orientation of solution-focused brief therapy are consistent with social work values as well as the strengths-based and empowerment-based practice in social work treatment. Keywords: brief treatment, empowerment-based, social work treatment, solution-focused, strengths-based History The development of solution-focused brief therapy was originally inspired by the work of husband and wife Steve de Shazer and Insoo Kim Berg, along with their associates at the Brief Family Therapy Center in Milwaukee. The Brief Therapy Center was first established by de Shazer and Berg in 1978 and formally became the home of solution-focused brief therapy in 1982. With the passing of de Shazer in September 2005 and then Berg in January 2007, the stewardship of the Brief Therapy Center was transferred to the Solution-Focused Brief Therapy Association (SFBTA). De Shazer was instrumental in the development of SFBTA because he was the one who first invited the solution-focused community to meet in 2001. This group, including de Shazer, Berg and 27 colleagues, founded the SFBTA in the fall of 2002."

"text": "\"Briefs, Legal Memoranda and Legal Writing You have learned in previous chapters that part of the legal profession involves a large quantity of writing. Complaints, answers, discovery documents, motions and legal memoranda (sometimes called “briefs”) make up a large part of a court file. “Legalese”There was a time when simple legal writing was frowned upon. Attorneys took great pains to make language in documents as complicated as possible. One of the reasons legal writing was so complicated was because attorneys wanted to cover their bases and make sure that their documents were as complete as possible. As legal writing has evolved, there has been a movement to move away from convoluted legal writing, also known as “ legalese ” to more contemporary, or “plain” writing. For example: In its memorandum to the court in support of its motion for summary judgment, Hal, the plaintiff’s attorney, argued that “the party of the first part coveted to convey its entire interest in the subject real property to the party of the second part.” The court, unhappy with the language, instructs Hal to rewrite his memorandum, excluding any legalese. In his revised memorandum, Hal writes, “The seller agrees to convey its entire interest in the property to the buyer.” The language is clearer, fewer words are used (thus generating less paper), but the message is still the same."

Thus, summary is nothing but rewriting a work of prose to make it short and condensed. Remember to also read this article on research paper format. There is no attempt by the person writing the summary to be judgmental, and he does not pass a personal remark or opinion. He tries to present the viewpoint of the author just keeping it short. Summary is quite short, maybe just a page or two at the maximum no matter how long a work like a story or a play may be. Synopsis Synopsis is more or less the same as a summary as it has been defined in various dictionaries as an outline, condensation, or even summary of the main points of a work, book or an article. Synopsis carries the gist of a work of prose without presenting the viewpoint of the writer of the synopsis. Précis writing is a skill that is sought to be taught at an early age to students."

It offers a process and suggests some strategies for writing book reviews. What is a review? A review is a critical evaluation of a text, event, object, or phenomenon. Reviews can consider books, articles, entire genres or fields of literature, architecture, art, fashion, restaurants, policies, exhibitions, performances, and many other forms. This handout will focus on book reviews. For a similar assignment, see our handout on literature reviews. Above all, a review makes an argument. The most important element of a review is that it is a commentary, not merely a summary. It allows you to enter into dialogue and discussion with the work’s creator and with other audiences."

Article updated with those additional use cases. ] Given the number of questions I've fielded about Active Data Guard through other channels, it was inevitable that my recent article about strategies for handling EBS reporting loads would prompt questions about its compatibility with the E-Business Suite. The answer to this deceptively-simple question is only meaningful if you understand what's happening behind the scenes when users log into the E-Business Suite. This article compares the operational implications of using Oracle Active Data Guard versus Oracle Data Guard in E-Business Suite environments. What Is Active Data Guard? Active Data Guard is a new option for Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition. From its official product literature: Oracle Active Data Guard enables read-only access to a physical standby database for queries, sorting, reporting, web-based access, etc., while continuously applying changes received from the production database. I've emphasized the read-only nature of the replicated database because of this feature's implications for E-Business Suite environments."

This means that they will only steam continuously for up to about 15 minutes, while more professional bed bug steamers can steam continuously for over an hour. Power: Depending on the size and price of a steamer, you may see a considerable power difference, ranging from 40 PSI to over 70. The higher the PSI, the dryer the steam will be, and the higher the temperature at the tip, making for a more efficient bed bug killer."

The game was currently published by Activision. The series was formerly developed by Naughty Dog from 1996 to 1999, and by Traveller's Tales, Eurocom and Vicarious Visions from 2000 to 2004. The series features a large cast of distinctive characters designed by numerous different artists, which include Charles Zembillas and Joe Pearson. It also features a cast of veteran voice actors. The series centers on the conflicts between a mutated bandicoot named Crash Bandicoot and his creator, Doctor Neo Cortex. Crash acts as the main playable character of the series, though other characters have had occasional player access, such as Coco Bandicoot and Doctor Neo Cortex, as well as Crunch Bandicoot.

In the games, Crash is described as a genetically-advanced Eastern Barred Bandicoot whose quiet life on a three-island chain (southwest of Australia, according to the instruction manual of the first game in the series) is frequently interrupted by his nemesis Doctor Neo Cortex, and must defeat him to put his life back in order. He is often accompanied by allies such as Aku Aku, Coco Bandicoot, and Crunch Bandicoot . Contents [ show]Conception and creation Crash was created by Naughty Dog intentionally as a character unique to the current design of the 3-D genre, being able to portray multiple emotions merely by facial expression, (a feature rare then due to basic technology in games). The choice of an obscure, commonly unknown animal was commonplace in the platforming industry at the time. Crash's final design (created by cartoonist and Spyro the Dragon designer Charles Zembillas) seems to be largely based on traditional Western animation, progressing as time does. Characteristics Personality Naughty Dog once referenced the development of Crash as a character both \"\"goofy yet heroic\"\", and being able to portray it well. Originally however, he took the role of a silent protagonist and thus expressed little of his personality or opinions (a trait developer Jason Rubin later claimed to regret), though in more recent games he has played a larger role. Crash's personality is hard to pinpoint, sometimes varying from game to game. Overall, he has a rather wacky, comical, cartoonish personality akin to a tornado."

Request Information Although brix refractometers are best known for measuring liquids, they are also used to measure gases and solids. A Brix Refractometer is frequently used by grape growers, Kiwifruit growers, home brewers as well as food producers for Brix testing of sucrose levels in their fruit. A Brix Refractometer can also used in the gelatin industry. To convert the Refractive Index (See our refractive index table) of a gelatin sol (reported in Brix) to a gelatin concentration, one need only multiply by eight-tenths (0.8). A sol with a 10.0 Brix would therefore be 8% gelatin by weight. This is known to be a reliable conversion for gelatin sols as low as 1% up to over 50%. The following of our products can be configured to be used as a Brix Refractometer: PR-111 Most of our handheld refractometers models starting with HR-0xx Most of the digital handheld refractometers models starting with PA-20x and DR-0xx The benchtop Abbe refractometer AR-001"

"text": "How to Use a Refractometer, Brix and Beer Brewingby Brad Smith on November 2, 2010 · 17 comments Follow @Beer Smith Refractometers are widely used in the wine and beer industry by to track fermentation, but less commonly used by home brewers. However, if used properly a refractometer can be a great tool to track specific gravity in place of or to supplement your hydrometer. This week, I take a look at refractometers, how they work and how an average home brewer can use one. I’m going to use Beer Smith as the refractometer conversion tool, as the hand calculations are fairly complex and could occupy another entire article. How a Refractometer Works A refractometer is an optical device that, like a hydrometer, measures the specific gravity of your beer or wort. It does so by sampling a small amount of liquid, and looking at its optically. The main advantage over a hydrometer is the small sample size needed – typically only a few drops. If you start with a glass of clear water, you will notice that the water and glass bend the light passing through it in a certain way. The bending of the light by the water is called refraction. Light bends to different degrees as it passes through different substances."

How to Ripen a Watermelon How to Tell When Sugar Baby Watermelon Is Ready to Pick Cutting into a watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) to discover snowy-white pulp instead of the deep-red ambrosia you were expecting might be unsettling. White-fleshed watermelons, however, can be as juicy and delicious as their more common red-fleshed relatives. The biggest difference between the two comes from a single phytonutrient responsible for the pink or red coloring of several fruits. The Lycopene Factor The magic ingredient that makes watermelons and tomatoes red and grapefruits and guavas pink is lycopene. All watermelons go through a white stage early in their development, but the red-fleshed cultivars produce increasing amounts of lycopene as they ripen. Those with the highest concentration of this nutritious pigment have the reddest flesh. Even when completely ripe, white-fleshed watermelon cultivars contain only traces of lycopene. A Ton of Brix Three of the most widely available white-fleshed watermelon cultivars are small, averaging about 8 to 10 pounds. They're also sweet to extremely sweet, according to the Brix scale use to measure fruits' sugar content. \"\""

"text": "Crushed Tomatoes Published January 2017How we tested Crushed tomatoes are a convenience product. Rather than haul out the food processor to break down canned whole tomatoes (or messily squish them in your hands) for a quick sauce or soup, you should be able to just pop the can lid, pour the tomatoes into a pot, and savor their flavor, which should be sweet and bright. As for texture, they should walk that line between a smooth puree and chunkier diced tomatoes (which don’t break down easily because they’re treated with calcium chloride to preserve firmness) and be topped off by puree or juice, offering both body and fluidity. When we last tasted crushed tomatoes, we happily discovered that a product from Tuttorosso offered the chunky yet saucy consistency and vibrant flavor we were after. The only downside was that it was sold in a 35-ounce can while most recipes call for 28-ounce cans. That discrepancy wasn’t a deal breaker at first, but when the product also became increasingly hard to find in supermarkets, we decided it was time to reevaluate the options. This time, we gathered eight nationally available products sold in 28-ounce cans (priced from $1.50 to $4.69) and tasted them plain and in a simple tomato sauce, which we tossed with spaghetti. Tasters evaluated each sample on its flavor, texture, and overall appeal. Crushing It More than half the samples boasted bright flavor and good body—particularly our winner, which delivered distinct firm-tender chunks that created a sauce that coated the noodles well. Tasters rejected only one product, which double-faulted with a “watery” consistency and “lackluster” flavor."

It has the formula C 12 H 22 O 11. For human consumption, sucrose is extracted, and refined, from either sugar cane or sugar beet. Sugar mills are located where sugar cane is grown to crush the cane and produce raw sugar which is shipped around the world for refining into pure sucrose. Some sugar mills also process the raw sugar into pure sucrose. Sugar beet factories are in colder climates where the beet is grown and process the beets directly into refined sugar. The sugar refining process involves washing the raw sugar crystals before dissolving them into a sugar syrup which is filtered and then passed over carbon to remove any residual colour."

"text": "Honey refractometers measure moisture content Honey refractometers are used by beekeepers and honey packers to measure the moisture content of honey. Technically, refractometers measure the refractive index of a substance. Explanation: Light travels at different speeds through different materials. The refractive index is just a comparison between two numbers: the speed of light through a vacuum and the speed of light through the material you are testing—in this case honey. Light also changes direction after it passes through different materials. If you measure the difference between the angle of incidence (light coming in) and the angle of refraction (light coming out) of a substance you can use this number to determine the refractive index. This is how a refractometer actually works. Explanation: If you look at a straw in a glass of water you will see it looks distorted. This is because light moves faster through just the glass than it does through the glass and the water combined. Likewise, light will move faster through honey that has few solids than it will move through honey that has many solids."

And does it really measure the nutrient density of your produce? A Brix tester measures the refraction value of the juice typically from your produce. It commonly used to measure the peak sugar content typically for eating or wine production. The unit most common meters have a detection limit of 0.2%.

"text": "Want Big, Sugary, Tasty, Sweet-Smelling Marijuana Buds? By Steve Davis Facebook Twitter Google+ Pinterest Marijuana responds to added carbohydrates and amino acids the same way endurance athletes respond when they load carbs before competing. Your hydroponics plants have more energy, vigor, and yield when you feed them carbohydrates, vitamins and amino acids through their roots. And marijuana growers have long believed that you pouring carbos and other enhancers into your root zone can make your buds more sugary, and more tasty. In old school days when Colombian Gold sold in the USA for $20 an ounce, Colombian farmers poured sugar, vanilla, cinnamon or molasses into their marijuana root zone, hoping to sweeten their crops. Nowadays, hydroponics stores offer formulas that contain carbs and other ingredients said to boost plant energy, bud taste, and aroma. But you have to be careful about what you use…One “carbo” product to avoid is Brix Plus. Its maker recommends spraying it on your crops a few days before harvest. Some people use it after harvest to add weight and make crappy weed taste better. Used during growing phases, Brix Plus clogs leaf openings (stomata) that your marijuana plants breathe through."

Author: Wine Maker Staff Issue: April-May 2009Testing troubles I’ve been frustrated with the use of Clinitest tablets for measuring the end point or final dryness in my homemade wine and have been wondering and reading about the use of electronic blood glucose meters that diabetics use. There have been several discussions in various forums and some scholarly work from UC-Davis back in 1998. It appears that while they may not be a total solution, there may be some use when the brix is at 0 degrees. Have you heard of folks using these devices for wine measurements and what are your thoughts on using electronic blood glucose meters? Dan Macone California, Maryland I share your frustration with the Clinitest tablet method for measuring residual sugar in wines, which is why I don’t use it anymore if I really need to get an accurate number. Between the mess (I hate cleaning the last little bit of colored crud out of the bottom of my test tube), the subjectivity (what color did it really turn?) and the relative inaccuracy (the color chart is really just not that accurate or duplicatable in my experience), I’ve moved on to other methods. Namely, those methods include using the simple hydrometer during fermentation until things get into the negative brixes and then over-nighting a sample to a wine lab for an enzymatic glucose assay. The latter is really your best bet for finding out if things are really and truly dry. Though it may sound extravagant to spend money on shipping (depending on how far away you live from a wine lab) and then slap down about $25.00 for a lab test, but I prefer to spend a little bit and get accuracy, a 24-hour turnaround time and numbers I have total confidence in."

Today, mini PCs like Intel's NUC (Next Unit of Computing) series make ultraportable laptops look large. Fast enough to be your primary PC but small enough to fit anywhere, the 2015 NUCs feature Intel 5th-generation Broadwell CPUs, 802.11ac Wi-Fi and support for high-speed PCIe SSDs. Better still, there's a Core i7-powered configuration, the NUC5i7RYH, which operates at 3.1 GHz. If you're comfortable buying and installing your own RAM, storage and operating system — which brought the price of our Core i5- and Core i7-powered test units up to $670 and $770, respectively — Intel's mini PC has a lot to offer. Use Cases The Core i5-powered NUC5i5RYK ($369) is undoubtedly fast enough to be a primary PC for students, business users and productivity-minded consumers. By pairing the NUC with a high-res monitor (or two), you can have all the space-saving benefits of an all-in-one PC, but with the ability to keep your displays after your next upgrade. The Core i7-powered NUC5i7RYH ($486), which we also tested, is fast enough to do hardcore productivity work, edit large videos or even do light gaming. With a high-capacity drive inside or attached via USB, either NUC can also serve as a very strong home-theater PC. Retailers with space concerns can use the NUC in point-of-sale systems or kiosks."

In addition, I strive to develop practices that make for effective but easy gardening. I have double-dug, raised beds and actually work the soil as little as possible. I never use a tiller. I have a silty-clay-loam soil, with 5% organic matter content, and have been fertilizing with organic materials for seven years.

"text": "Produce Shelf Life: Issues and Extension Methods from Harvest to Retailer Introduction Produce is a highly perishable commodity making shelf life a race against the clock for growers, processors and retailers. With national averages of produce shrinkage at 6%, according to the Produce Marketing Association, shelf life costs US retailers in excess of $2.1 billion per year. This paper will review factors that shorten and extend shelf life, and multiple methods to extend and measure produce shelf life as it pertains to produce processed from harvest to delivery to the retail facility. What is Shelf Life? Shelf life is the period of time a food has before it is considered unsuitable for consumption or sale. The shelf life of fruits and vegetables can vary considerably depending on multiple factors. Post harvest shelf life of produce revolves around the basic fact that fresh fruits and vegetables continue to function like living organisms, even after they are harvested. Freshly harvested produce uses stored energy and oxygen to remain alive. This process is called respiration and the faster the particular produce uses up its stored energy, the shorter the produce shelf life. The faster an item respires the faster it will decay."

The conversions to Brix, Oechsle, KMW, g/L sugar, and potential alcohol are only valid prior to fermentation. After fermentation begins these readings will be obscured by alcohol, and therefore reflect the apparent hydrometer readings for these quantities.

"text": "What broadband speed do I need for streaming, vlogging, Vo IP, the cloud and other online applications By Luke Thompson Monday, February 26th 2018At the heavier end of our internet usage needs are a host of data-heavy tasks about which there is often scant clear information when it comes to speed and data requirements. Covering everything from watching and broadcasting video over the internet to getting the edge in online multiplayer gaming, we set out to put some firm numbers against these tasks and offer advice on what kind of broadband deal you'll need to get the best results. What speed do I need for watching movies and streaming TV in SD, HD or 4K UHD? The speed required to watch video online depends on a number of different factors, primarily the resolution you intend to watch at, but also the service you intend to watch it on and – to a far smaller degree than either of those, what device you intend to watch it on. That's because each service uses different software to 'compress' the video before sending it. Compression minimises the speed taken up by what you're watching. List of download speeds needed to watch various streaming services Standard Definition (SD) High Definition (HD) Ultra-high Definition (UHD or 4K)BBC i Player 1.5Mbps 2.8Mbps N/ANetflix 3Mbps 5Mbps 25Mbps Amazon Prime Instant Video 0.9Mbps 3.5Mbps 25Mbps Now TV 2.5Mbps 5Mbps (estimated) N/AYou Tube 2Mbps 6Mbps 15Mbps Beware: these estimates are minimums Streaming service providers have a tendency to lean towards tempting the maximum amount of people to enjoy their services by stating speed minimums instead of likely realities. When streaming video, the actual speed required varies, depending on how much is 'changing' on-screen at any given time. For example, a scene in a movie with a close-up of a person's face talking will require less bandwidth (or speed) than a scene with a million butterflies fluttering about. So, the speeds offered as minimums should be taken with a pinch of salt."

"text": "How to get Sky Anytime+ on your Sky+HD box By Alex Lane5th April 2012Broadband & TVNews How to get Sky Anytime+ on your Sky+HD box Sky Anytime+ is now available to any Sky subscriber with a Sky+HD box and a broadband connection, even if you’re not a Sky Broadband subscriber. If you’ve ever browsed the Sky Anytime section of your Sky Guide and found it a bit shallow, you’ll be very happy to know that you can now access a huge selection of drama, entertainment and documentaries, as well as up to 70 films a month, and pay-per-view films on Sky Store (formerly Sky Box Office). The selection available to you will depend on your Sky subscription, but it includes catch-up and archive shows from Sky, UKTV (owners of G. O. L. D., Dave, Good Food and Yesterday), the History Channel family and Discovery’s group of channels. ITV Player is already on Anytime+, and BBC i Player will be added later this year. Programmes are available in both HD and SD, and unlike most on-demand libraries, they download to your hard disc as you watch, so you can usually watch them again before they expire, or take up where you stopped just like any other Sky+ recording. Some shows can even be copied over to ‘Your’ section of the hard disc from the Anytime section to keep for posterity. That might come in handy, because the Anytime section is pretty small on the early Sky+HD boxes (about 240GB), although it’s 500GB on the first-generation Sky+HD 1TB box, and a full 1TB on the second-generation 1TB box announced this week. As with most on-demand TV services, a minimum speed of 2Mbps is recommended if you want to enjoy a smooth experience with as little waiting as possible, although you can get by on lower speeds if you’re patient. Follow us through the next few pages and we’ll show you how to connect your Sky+HD to the internet, activate Sky Anytime and access the service on your TV. Activate Sky Anytime+ at My Sky Sky Anytime+ doesn’t cost any extra, but you’ll need to activate it as part of your Sky subscription so Sky knows which films and TV shows to deliver."

"text": "'Did you see that new show on on Netflix?'. If these words, spoken at the water cooler or casually tossed around at social gatherings, strike fear into your very heart, fear not. Watching Netflix is much easier than it once was thanks to the amazing range of devices and services you can watch it on. OK, so you can't watch it through Sky, but otherwise almost every household has a way to watch Netflix, even if they don't know it. Netflix on Sky No, you can't. Although some Sky boxes run certain apps, Sky regards Netflix as a competitor service to its own on demand and original content offering. You can't get Netflix on any of the Sky box models – that includes the Sky+HD box and the Sky Q box. However, that doesn't mean that if you have Sky you can't watch Neflix at all. Just that you can't watch it on a Sky box. There are ways around it... Four ways to get Netflix if you already have Sky1."

Download speed: Although fast download speeds are not crucial for actually playing games online it is extremely helpful for downloading games, as well as patches, mods and other large files. Upload speed: If you’re planning on hosting online games or streaming games footage a rapid upload rate is important. Download limits: Some broadband deals have a monthly data limit, which may be a problem for big game downloads. Unlimited packages mean you never have to worry about it. Latency: Latency (or ping rate) is the delay in transmitting a packet of data and receiving a response, measured in milliseconds (ms). High latency results in lag which can badly impact online gaming, especially shooters and other games where quick reactions are essential."

"text": "Have you ever felt that the price of your broadband is too high? We hear you. But instead of complaining, we thought we should find out where in the world we had to move to get the cheapest broadband possible. To figure this out, we have analyzed and compiled the latest report from the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and can now present a close look at broadband prices for 161 countries across the world. Cheap in Sri Lanka, expensive in Cuba The price for fixed broadband across the world range from just over $5 per month to the unbelievably high $1,700 per month! Still, most of the countries fall in range between $5 and $60 per month. Some interesting numbers: The least expensive broadband is to be found in Sri Lanka, at just $5.5 per month. Cuba has by far the most expensive broadband at $1,753 per month. Second most expensive is Swaziland at $875 per month. According to the ITU, a high level of competition among the suppliers and an explicit aim from the government to keep the cost to a minimum can, at least partly, explain the low prices in India, Russia and Sri Lanka.12 nations have a broadband cost of $10 or lower per month."

Our reviews Show More Is Cable ONE available in my area? Every Internet Service Provider ( ISP) has a different footprint and availability map of where they offer service. Even though a provider may offer service in your city or zip code, it's still possible they won't be able to connect your home due to distance limitations - broadband signals degrade the farther away they get from the provider's infrastructure. We've analyzed every city nationwide and found that each city has an average of three wired internet providers with copper, cable, or fiber dug into trenches, or hung from utility and telephone poles; however, most individual homes can only receive service from one or two providers. If your home is outside of the city limits, in a rural area, you might not have access to a wired internet connection, but can still get internet service from a Wireless or Satellite provider depending on the surrounding topography and vegetation - these connections need line-of-sight to towers or satellites. Whether you have recently moved and need your utilities connected for the first time, or you are buying a home and want to verify your family can have a fast internet connection to compliment your investment, or you've had a bad experience with your current provider and are looking to change, we can help inform you of your options and find a provider that works for your needs.

"text": "\"The most expensive internet in America: fighting to bring affordable broadband to American Samoa Darren Murph07.04.126Shares\"\"You could argue that there's some value in it. \"\" That's New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, speaking candidly during a recent interview at D10 in California. The topic of conversation? Widespread Wi Fi, and whether or not the government should be the one thinking about its future ubiquity. More specifically, if Wi Fi hotspots should be treated like \"\"roads or water supply,\"\" as aptly stated by All Things D 's Kara Swisher. This obviously isn't the first time such an idea has crossed the minds of those connected to Washington, D. C. Muni-Fi (municipal wireless networks) projects were all the rage a few years back, but one spectacular failure after another swiftly extinguished that momentum. In more modern times, America (as well as other nations) has sought to solve the \"\" rural broadband \"\" problem, bringing high (er)-speed internet connections to places with a higher bovine population than human. But bringing broadband to places like rural North Dakota seems like an easy chore to a small, but passionate, group of 60,000 sitting some 4,770 miles from San Diego, California. American Samoa may be an unincorporated US territory located closer to pure bliss than the hustle and bustle of Wall Street, but it's no doubt being taken into consideration in recent mapping projects aiming to pinpoint the areas most lacking in terms of digital infrastructure. Unbeknownst to most mainlanders, this fragile island chain is home to the most expensive internet in America, and the political issues surrounding it are astonishing."

The first thing to decide is whether you want to take the opportunity of moving home to switch to a new provider or if you’re happy to stick with your current provider. Consider the following questions: Are you still within your minimum contract term? If you're still only part way into a 12 or 18 month contract with your broadband provider then it almost certainly makes sense to stick with them and simply move your existing contract to the new address. Ending your contract early usually comes with hefty penalties including paying up to the cost of all the remaining months of broadband and line rental you committed to."

"text": "Fair use policies are fairly common, but what does fair internet usage actually mean to you and your browsing and downloading habits? You may have noticed that even though your internet service provider (ISP) offers 'unlimited' downloads, this is generally subject to a 'fair usage policy'. But what is fair use exactly? Despite the fact that a fair usage limit on something labelled 'unlimited' is entirely antithetical, there are performance reasons behind providers' policies which may impact your internet usage. Fair use and contention ratios Customers share internet connections. The number of people sharing a connection is called the 'contention ratio', and it can be up to 50 people per line. So if one user is constantly downloading, it will slow the connection for the other users who are on at the same time. Fair usage policies limit the usage of one user over another at peak times so that the performance is not affected for the rest of the group. Providers tend to group people according to usage, so people who download all the time are grouped together. These restrictions are imposed to ensure that the best quality of broadband is available to the maximum number of customers."

The higher the number of Mbps (megabits per second) you have, the speedier your online activity should be.

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Technology Computers Internet Broadband Internet What is the diffence between a dedicated internet connection and a dial-up internet connection? Flag What is the diffence between a dedicated internet connection and a dial-up internet connection? Answer by Stryke3 Confidence votes 113A dedicated Internet connection usually refers to a connection that is \"\"always on\"\". In other words, the connection to the Internet Service Provider (ISP) is always established. Examples of this type include cable modems, fiber lines, or leased lines (e.g., T-1/OC-3). In contrast, \"\"dial-up\"\" Internet usually refers to a connection provided by a telephone modem that only establishes a connection to the Internet Service Provider (ISP) when the user requests. This form of network connection is common in areas where dedicated connections are not possible, but telephone networks are available. Telephone modems have a typical maximum speed of around 56kbps, while dedicated connections can range from 64kbps (DSL) to nearly 40Gbps (OC-768).1 person found this useful Was this answer useful?

( US Navy photograph)This is an ongoing paper I have worked on for over three decades now on various high precedence messages passed by the U. S. military on their HF/VHF/UHF/EHF/Milsat frequency bands. I will continue to add to the thread as new material is found or changes are observed. Most Unusual Do D Foxtrot/Skyking Message Yet! On February 29, 2016, our good friend and European Ute monitor Ary Boender caught an unusual and first of its kind Foxtrot/Skyking message broadcast on the US Do D HFGCS communication network at 1548 UTC. As noted in the sections below, Foxtrot aka Skyking messages are the highest precedence messages transmitted on the HFGCS network. They are aircraft advisory messages that we believe are intended for aircraft assets of the highest mission priority. This message is a bit unusual and was a departure from the normal format with no Skyking, message directed directly to Melon 68, included a diplomatic clearance and was transmitted in the blind. In recent days we have had Do D recon assets flying in the Middle East out of Turkey in Syria observing the battlefield there."

"text": "\"Home Journalism 20 Longest-Running Network TV Shows Still On the Air Journalism TV & Entertainment20 Longest-Running Network TV Shows Still On the Air Patrick Sep 26, 13 4 comments ABC CBS Journalism NBC PBS TV“Premiere week” is well underway; it’s that time of year when the new television season begins and shows return to answer the questions left behind in last May’s cliffhangers. Here’s a list of the 20 longest-running television shows on the broadcast networks. Years ago, when a new television show premiered, it was given time — sometimes more than it deserved — to evolve and grow an audience. Back in the days in which there were only three or four channels to choose from, a show could run for half a season or more, even with somewhat lousy ratings, but still have a chance to return the following season. All in the Family is a perfect example: CBS was reportedly so nervous about the adult topics this satirical sitcom planned to tackle that it added a disclaimer to the beginning of the first few episodes and buried the show in its schedule, hoping it’d do well, but fearing a backlash. But it went along fairly quietly, eclipsed by the competition until summer reruns came along: that’s when viewers who’d been watching their favorite shows on the competing channels while All in the Family was airing its first few shows, found the program and became hooked. That was then. Nowadays, shows can disappear after a single episode if the ratings aren’t good enough. The higher cost of producing a television series these days combines with the higher level of competition channels face, and the result is that TV executives can’t afford to give a show a full season to “find itself” anymore. The All in the Family story makes one wonder how many other gems never had the chance to become classics."

"text": "If You Build it They Will Come In duck hunting, we know food is king when it comes to attracting and holding ducks. Just as deer hunters do, a lot of duck hunters plant food plots for ducks. An excellent choice when it comes to what to plant is Golden Millet. Corn, which is often the go to plant in food plots for ducks, needs to be planted in the Spring and can cost upward of $400 an acre. It could be in the ground for over 6 months before the season begins. A lot of things can go wrong in 6 months. In 2002, Five Oaks Wildlife Services in Stuttgart, Arkansas developed Golden Millet as a way to set back succession in moist soil impoundments (duck ponds) and to grow as a second crop post harvest. Golden Millet allows duck hunters to cut down on the time their crop is sitting waiting on the birds to arrive. It can be planted mid July through early September depending on your location and only costs $55-$60 an acre. The most important factor in the planting date is to find the average first frost date and back up 75 days."

This is a cool moment, but we have to take advantage of it. \"\" When Manchester United face Real Madrid in front of 109,000 spectators in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on Saturday, Klinsmann will be able to point to what will be the biggest attendance for a soccer game in the States as evidence of his assertion that football - the original version - is now the real deal in a sporting landscape dominated by the big four of NFL, NBA, Major League Baseball and ice hockey. And if results go to form in the final round of International Challenge Cup games, Miami's 76,000-capacity Sun Life Stadium will host a Manchester derby in Monday's final, or a clash between United and Liverpool - both of which would give a sense of now to Richard Scudamore's controversial 2008 vision of a 39th Premier League fixture.

"text": "\"Quid pro quo From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search This article is about the meaning and use of the Latin term. For other uses, see Quid pro quo (disambiguation). Quid pro quo (\"\"something for something\"\" in Latin) [1] is a phrase used in English to mean an exchange of goods or services, in which one transfer is contingent upon the other; \"\"a favour for a favour\"\". Phrases with similar meanings include: \"\"give and take\"\", \"\" tit for tat \"\", and \"\"you scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours\"\". Contents [ hide ]1 In common law1.1 United Kingdom2 Origins3 In literature4 Other meanings5 See also6 Notes In common law [ edit]In common law, quid pro quo indicates that an item or a service has been traded in return for something of value, usually when the propriety or equity of the transaction is in question. A contract must involve consideration: that is, the exchange of something of value for something else of value. For example, when buying an item of clothing or a gallon of milk, a pre-determined amount of money is exchanged for the product the customer is purchasing; therefore, they have received something but have given up something of equal value in return. In the United States, if the exchange appears excessively one sided, courts in some jurisdictions may question whether a quid pro quo did actually exist and the contract may be held void. In cases of \"\"Quid Pro Quo\"\" business contracts, the term takes on a negative connotation because major corporations often cross ethical boundaries in order to enter into these very valuable, mutually beneficial, agreements with other major big businesses. In these deals, large sums of money are often at play and can consequently lead to promises of exclusive partnerships indefinitely or promises of distortion of economic reports, for example. ["

This one step will do more to improve the quality of your lawn than almost anything else you can do. For the organic and conventional home turf experts, this is one of the best things you can do. Years of experience proves this. The information on this page will explain why overseeding your lawn is so important for a thick, healthy, and weed free lawn. The two images below show the same fescue lawn before and after seeding. Overseeding was performed in early fall and was recommended due to thinning grass and increasing weed problems. The second image was taken the following spring after overseeding. The grass is thicker and the thin areas have filled in. Grasses that Benefit From Overseeding The practice of overseeding lawns is really nothing more than spreading grass seed over an existing lawn."

Still others enjoy throwing a few pillows on the floor and lounging on that warm, comfortable surface we all know and love. What are we talking about? Carpet, of course!Whether it's sliding out of bed on a cool, crisp winter morning or relaxing in front of the television to watch a movie, there's nothing quite like the warmth and softness of carpet under our feet and bodies. Many of us take for granted the plush carpeting in our homes that comforts our feet as we walk across it daily.

"text": "\"A broadloom carpet is simply any type of carpet that is woven on a very wide loom. These carpets carry a distinct and obvious advantage when they are used to create area carpeting in large rooms, as they can be installed without creating seams. As standalone rugs and carpets, they also carry a size advantage over machine-woven carpets produced on more narrow looms. Many carpet supply stores stock this type of carpet for people who wish to consider it as an option. A wide range of styles and designs of broadloom carpet can be created. Modern carpet looms are operated with computer programs, which allow people to precisely program desired patterns and sizes. The computer can also be used to dictate the height of the pile and any additional features. This type of carpet can be pile woven or loop woven, and it can integrate a wide variety of colors. If the carpet is intended for use as a throw rug, borders can be programmed into the loom. Construction materials for these carpets vary."

"text": "A Brief History of Carpet Tiles Posted on April 8, 2013 by john The concept of flooring tile goes back thousands of years when hard surfaces of various rock forms, baked clay, and ceramic were being used. The early users of these initial tile flooring types needed something to cover their dirt floors that were of a size that could be easily carried to where the floor was located. These hard surface types of flooring preceded woven grasses and fabrics that were used to cover the ground; such as, mats and rugs. As civilization progressed, wood tiles and certain forms of metal, glass, and rubber tiles were used. Also, finely finished rocks; such as, limestone and granite, were being improved for the “now” classic look of stone tiles. Flash forward to the mid-nineteenth century and you find the first carpet tiles being used. It was then that a small Dutch company outside of Amsterdam, Holland, made the first “true” carpet tile. The name of this company was Heuga and their initial business was making bicycle seat covers with animal hides. They purchased a needle punch machine which enabled them to use the horse and hog hair yarn to manufacture wider width fabric ideal for carpet tiles. Heuga strived, at this relatively early date, to make sure that they were using a waste by-product from local slaughter houses."

"text": "Price is a huge factor in any flooring decision. With a finite budget, it’s essential that your chosen flooring solution satisfies the needs of your organization, and does so in a cost-effective way. With that in mind, we’re looking at how much carpet tiles typically cost; and comparing their total cost of ownership to three other leading flooring solutions: vinyl composite tile (VCT), luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and broadloom carpet.1) Purchase Price The first element of the total cost of ownership is purchase price. As a general rule, carpet tiles are more expensive than luxury vinyl tiles, which are more expensive than vinyl composite tiles. Broadloom has the largest price range, residing at both the lower-end and higher-end of the flooring market. However, these costs need to be framed in the context of features. Though VCT offers good value, it lacks many of the benefits carpet tiles are able to provide – including reduced ambient noise, improved underfoot comfort, lower risk of slips and falls, and greater color, pattern and design flexibility. Instead of considering the price of each type of flooring in isolation, it’s important to first consider how and where your flooring will be used – and look for a flooring type that can accommodate your needs.2) Cleaning and Maintenance Costs The cleaning and maintenance costs of carpet (both broadloom and tile) are relatively low. Regular vacuuming and occasional detergent-free deep cleaning offer an affordable and effective way to prolong the life of your carpet. When carpet becomes worn or stained, carpet tiles make it easy to remove and replace individually affected tiles."

"text": "Carpet & Flooring Basics Carpets & Flooring What Is Broadloom? The Basics of Broadloom Carpet By Cheryl Simmons Updated 10/03/17Share Pin Email Banks Photos/E+/Getty Images The term broadloom is defined as carpet that is woven on a wide loom, and it generally refers to tufted carpet that is installed wall-to-wall. Broadloom is sold on rolls that are standard width. They are usually 12 feet wide, but can also be 15 feet or 13 feet 6 inches wide. Historically, carpets were hand woven on looms, and so the term ‘broad loom’ literally meant a loom that was wider than the average loom size, and used to make a large carpet. What Is a Loom? A loom is a device that is used to weave fabric. For hand weaving, it holds in place the fibers running in one direction, so that the fibers going in the opposite direction may be interwoven. How Is Broadloom Sold? As mentioned above, broadloom is made into rolls of a standard width (whichever width the manufacturer chooses)."

"text": "The term “Saxony carpet” is used both to describe a particular type of carpet, and carpets from a famous carpet manufacturer. Since the Saxony name is associated with quality and luxury, many carpet companies try to capitalize on Saxony's branding to make their products appeal to consumers, so some caution is advised when purchasing these carpets. Be aware that they tend to be more expensive than lesser-known brands of carpeting, and there are a wide range of styles in the Saxony product line, so you may want to research the company's offerings before you plunge into a carpet purchase. When people use “Saxony carpet” to refer to a type of carpet, they mean a type of carpet with a cut loop pile. This means that the carpet is woven in loops, and then the loops are sheared off, creating a carpet with a tufted, even surface. This type of carpet is typically woven very densely, and it has a very soft, plush feel. The primary disadvantage to this type of carpet is that it tends to show marks such as footprints, making it sometimes challenging to maintain. Ad The softness of Saxony carpet makes it a popular choice for homes, and the elegant look of the carpet can lend a luxurious feel to a room. Some people consider this carpet a more formal type of carpeting, and it may also be marketed as plush carpet. If you have ever entered a formal room and noticed that the carpeting is extremely plush, chances are that you have seen a Saxony carpet in action."

Carpet & Rugs Flooring The Basics 14 Comments 4Carpet tiles, also known as carpet squares or modular carpet, are a modern and stylish alternative to standard carpet rolls. Though they’re much easier for a do-it-yourselfer to install on their own, they come with their own pros and cons. Often used in commercial settings, such as in schools and airports, they are becoming more and more popular in residential spaces. As you decide whether to use a carpet roll or opt for carpet tiles, consider these qualities: Mix and match or pick one color, carpet tiles offer countless design opportunities.

They are available in:various sizesmultiple fiber typespile stylesmanufactured types This means you can likely find a carpet tile equivalent for the roll of carpet you were considering or would have otherwise used in your home. Besides format, the major difference between standard carpet rolls is the tile backing material. Carpet tile backing material options include: vinyl, fiberglass, vinyl/fiberglass, urethane, woven polypropylene, and recycled vinyl.

"text": "Ask IT: How Big should my Dining Room Area Rug be? January 27, 2010 Miscellaneous. I recently read your post about “Choosing the Right Area Rug” and found it helpful, but it didn’t cover my specific question. We have a formal dining room with hardwood floors and would like to add an area rug, but we keep hearing differing opinions on what size it should be. In your opinion, what is the correct size for a dining room rug? Dave and Linda Great Falls, MT. Hi Dave and Linda,. Thanks for the question. Choosing an area rug for the dining room comes with it’s own set of rules in regard to size. Basically you want the rug to be large enough that the table and all the chairs will be sitting on on it when they are pushed up to the table (whether they’re occupied or empty)."

"text": "\"What Are Psychogenic Movement Disorders? Psychogenic movement disorders are characterized by unwanted movements, such as spasms, shaking or jerks involving any part of the face, neck, trunk or limbs. In addition some patients may have bizarre gait or difficulties with their balance that are caused by underlying stress or some psychological condition. Speech and voice disorders are also relatively common in patients with psychogenic movement disorders, in which patients may experience stuttering, speech arrest, lower speech volume (hypophonia), or even a foreign accent. A variety of blood, imaging and other tests are usually normal and do not reveal any physical (organic) cause that could explain these motor abnormalities. Most psychogenic movements are considered involuntary – performed without conscious awareness or effort. They can mimic organic movement disorders, such as tremor , dystonia , myoclonus, parkinsonism, tics and paroxysmal dyskinesias. Although a psychogenic movement disorder may resemble or accompany an organic disorder, a skilled and experienced neurologist should be able to differentiate the two types of movement disorders. Several other terms have been used to describe psychogenic movement disorders and there has been considerable debate regarding the appropriate naming of the disorder. Other terms, including functional, nonorganic, conversion disorder, psychosomatic, medically unexplained, dissociative motor disorder, and hysterical, when applied to the diagnosis, may seem vague and can often be misinterpreted by the patient to perceive themselves as dysfunctional rather than functional."

It also reformed the law relating to the legal status of women in customary marriages, the financial consequences of a customary marriage and the dissolution of customary marriages, replacing the customary law with statutory provisions.

Marriages contracted after the act came into force are only recognised if they comply with the requirements imposed by the act. These requirements are that the spouses are 18 or older, that they both consent to the marriage, and that neither of them are already married under the Marriage Act or the Civil Union Act.

"text": "\"Humanities ›Issues The Definition of Transwoman Transwoman - An Explanation of Gender Terms Share Flipboard Email Print Paula Bronstein/Stringer/Getty Images News/Getty Imagesby Tom Head Updated March 06, 2017A transwoman is a woman who was assigned a male gender at birth, but that is not consistent with her sense of self. She lives and identifies as a female and may have taken steps to transition into becoming a woman. This distinguishes her from a ciswoman, a shorthand term for \"\"cissexual woman.\"\" These women were assigned a female gender at birth and they identify with it. Transgender vs. Transsexual A fine line exists between transgender and transsexual individuals of either sex, and that line often blurs – the terms are used interchangeably. But it is generally accepted that a transgender woman is biologically a man who identifies as a woman. She may take steps to transition, but these steps do not necessarily involve surgery or physical alterations. She might dress as a woman, refer to herself as a woman, or even use a feminine name. A transsexual individual is one who has physically transitioned to the gender she identifies with. This often includes taking hormones to suppress the physical characteristics of her assigned gender."

These are the problems that rehabilitation aims to address. Other problems can also arise that are secondary to vestibular disorders, such as nausea and/or vomiting, reduced ability to focus or concentrate, and fatigue. Symptoms due to vestibular disorders can diminish quality of life and impact all aspects of daily living. They also contribute to emotional problems such as anxiety and depression. Additionally, one of the consequences of having a vestibular disorder is that symptoms frequently cause people to adopt a sedentary lifestyle in order to avoid bringing on, or worsening, dizziness and imbalance. As a result, decreased muscle strength and flexibility, increased joint stiffness, and reduced stamina can occur. Treatment strategies used in rehabilitation can also be beneficial for these secondary problems. WHAT IS VESTIBULAR REHABILITATION?"

"text": "Stan Rabinowitz Answered May 31, 2015 · Upvoted by Albert Donnay, Consulting Toxicologist and Env. Health Engineer Tea Tree Oil Tea tree oil comes from the leaves of an Australian tree called Melaleuca alternifolia . It is an essential oil with a long history of use as a natural remedy for skin ailments and other conditions. Unfortunately, sometimes “natural” is confused with “non-toxic” or “non-poisonous”. Tea tree oil, like many other “natural” substances, can indeed be poisonous if used in the wrong way, especially if swallowed. In 2008, U. S. poison centers received more than twice as many calls about tea tree oil than any other named essential oil, including cinnamon oil, clove oil, and eucalyptus oil. More than 15 percent of people exposed to tea tree oil were treated in a hospital or doctor’s office. Tea tree oil is sold as a pure essential oil, in over-the-counter and herbal remedies for skin conditions, and as an ingredient in household cleaning products. Traditional uses: The National Library of Medicine (NLM) lists a number of traditional or theoretical uses of tea tree oil.

Parkinson's disease is a neurological disorder that can cause tremors, stiffness, slowness of movement, trouble balancing, problems walking and difficulty coordinating movement. Less obvious symptoms include depression, insomnia, anxiety, fatigue and constipation. Neurological disorders that mimic the symptoms of Parkinson's disease are called atypical parkinsonism disorders. What is Parkinson's disease? Many doctors cannot tell whether a patient has Parkinson's disease or atypical parkinsonism. \"\" This can be very challenging, especially during the early stages of the diseases and if the responsible doctor is not a neurologist specialized in movement disorders,\"\" said Dr. Oskar Hansson, lead author of the new study, a neurologist and an associate professor at Lund University in Sweden. Non-specialists \"\"do not really know exactly what questions to ask the patient and the special signs to look for,\"\" Hansson wrote in an email. Yet patients with atypical disorders \"\"usually have a much worse prognosis, with faster disease progression, (with) more disabling symptoms\"\" than Parkinson's patients, so early identification is crucial. The correct diagnosis is also key to treatment since \"\"most patients with atypical parkinsonism disorders do not respond well to dopamine-targeting medications\"\" that are usually prescribed for Parkinson's patients, Hansson said."

Moreover, virtually all negative effects of dietary supplements, what some people (especially fear-mongers) call the “dangers of supplements”, can be entirely avoided by following some practical guidelines on how to properly use these valuable natural health products. This pro-active approach elevates dietary supplement safety and ensures that you will experience primarily health benefits from your nutritional supplements. Side effects, if present at all, will only be minor that way. Last but not least... One of the prime facts about vitamins is that the health risks of dietary supplements are low. A fortunate consequence thereof is that the majority of side effects of dietary supplements are reversible and disappear, usually within a short time, once you stop taking the product or set of products. Here are the Top 10 Tips to avoid the negative side effects of dietary supplements... Tip #1 To Avoid Side Effects Of Dietary Supplements: Take High-quality Nutritional Supplements At Science-based Doses When you buy dietary supplements you want to be in a situation where the benefits of supplements are as large as possible -and, respectively, the risks as low as possible. The supplement market is flooded with low-quality, ineffective products due to an inadequate regulatory setting (see the 3-part article on \"\"Exploring The Shady World Of Dietary Supplement Regulation\"\" -PART 1: Dietary Supplement Regulation –Is Supplement Quality Assured?) A substantial number of nutritional supplements are tainted with impurities and contaminants, such as heavy metals, pesticides, bacteria, fungi, prescription drugs, and other compounds (Cohen, 2009; News & Events –Press Announcements, Dec. 15, 2010, from Official US Government FDA website, accessed Feb. 2011), making them potentially harmful dietary supplements. These unwanted substances can be a source, or a contributing factor, for side effects of dietary supplements –especially over the long run because many contaminants add to your toxic load. ("

An influential politician in the early days of the Soviet Union, Trotsky served as the People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs and the People's Commissar of War and was the founder and commander of the Red Army. He was also a founding member of the Politburo, the central policymaking and governing body of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Following a power struggle with Joseph Stalin in the 1920s, Trotsky was expelled from the Communist Party and deported from the Soviet Unio n. Ramon Mercader assassinated Trotsky in Mexico in 1940. Trotsky's ideas form the basis of the Communist theory of Trotskyism, which remains a major school of Marxist thought theoretically opposed to Stalinism and Maoism. Childhood and Family (1879-1896)Trotsky was born in Yanovka, Kherson Province, Ukraine on November 7, 1879. He was the fifth child of a wealthy but illiterate Jewish farmer, David Leontyevich Bronstein and Anna Bronstein (d. 1910). Trotsky was born Lev Davidovich Bronstein, named after an uncle who would, later that month, attempt to blow up the imperial railway carriage. Although the family was ethnically Jewish, it was not religious, and the languages spoken at home were Russian and Ukrainian instead of Yiddish. When Trotsky was nine, his father sent him to school in Odessa."

"text": "\"The Ongoing Mystery of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Actual Height BY Janet Burns July 30, 2015Whether or not you’re a fan of Arnold Schwarzenegger, you’ve probably been unable to avoid knowing a few things about him: maybe you’re aware he was crowned Mr. Universe at the age of 20 and Mr. Olympia (the first time) at 23, that he was the governor of some state or another, or that he and his bodybuilding peer Franco Columbu had a successful bricklaying business back in the late 1960s. Maybe you even know that his official “snatch” record is 243 pounds—or that today is his 68th birthday!However, what you don’t know—at least not for sure—is Arnold’s height. Because nobody does. Except, just maybe, the Austria-born superstar himself.

For years, Schwarzenegger’s official height has been listed at 6’1½” or thereabouts, but the number has failed to satisfy reporter after reporter, who accuse him of stretching the truth, wearing lifts, or both. One journalist, for example, consulted several sources for inside info and came up with a range of results: the writer’s own wife, who’d previously met Schwarzenegger at an event, estimated that he was no taller than she was—or around 5’6”—while renowned critic Roger Ebert, when contacted for the sake of the same Chicago Reader article, also dismissed the official number of 6’1”. “ No way,” he wrote back. “ I’d guess 5’10” or 5’11”. ”Many of Schwarzenegger’s fans and observers have offered their own perspectives to the debate, including the forum participant “F. U. Shakespeare,” who noted that “a guy I used to train with met Arnold at a seminar” in the early 1970s and had “estimated Arnold’s height at 5’11”."

The deal came out of a meeting Thursday in Turkey facilitated by staff from the U. S. House Foreign Affairs Committee and the Washington-based Syrian Emergency Task Force. Two U. S. congressmen sat in on the final negotiations between the groups, just days after Congress signed off on President Barack Obama's call to arm and train moderate rebels to fight ISIS.

"text": "\"CERVICAL VERTIGOTimothy C. Hain, MD Spanish version Page last modified: March 11, 2018OVERVIEWCervical vertigo is a vertigo or dizziness that is provoked by a particular neck posture no matter what the orientation of the head is to gravity. For example, dizziness provoked by turning the head about the vertical axis, while sitting upright. Another definition is \"\"vertigo due to neck disorders\"\" (Ryan and Cope, 1955). We will use the symptom based diagnosis, as we think that the diagnosis base on implication of cause is unrealistic at the present time, given our inability to diagnose cervical vertigo in general at the present writing. Some poorly informed individuals hold that cervical vertigo does not exist, even in legal expert testimony. This is an indefensible position, as discussed here. The precise incidence of cervical vertigo is controversial but it is estimated that 20-58% of patients who sustain closed-head injuries or whiplash experience late onset symptoms of dizziness, vertigo and dysequilibrium. In this regard, also note that driving disturbances are common in persons with chronic whiplash associated vertigo (WAD), occurring in 73% according to Takasaki (Takasaki, Johnston et al. 2011). Cervical vertigo is matter of considerable concern because of the high litigation related costs of whiplash injuries."

S. state of Florida, the northern and western Caribbean, southern Mexico and Central America south to Panama. [ 4] The specific epithet aurea was applied by English botanist Thomas Nuttall who described the species in 1846. Ficus aurea is a strangler fig. In figs of this group, seed germination usually takes place in the canopy of a host tree with the seedling living as an epiphyte until its roots establish contact with the ground. After that, it enlarges and strangles its host, eventually becoming a free-standing tree in its own right. Individuals may reach 30 m (100 ft) in height. Like all figs, it has an obligate mutualism with fig wasps: figs are only pollinated by fig wasps, and fig wasps can only reproduce in fig flowers. The tree provides habitat, food and shelter for a host of tropical lifeforms including epiphytes in cloud forests and birds, mammals, reptiles and invertebrates. F. aurea is used in traditional medicine, for live fencing, as an ornamental and as a bonsai Contents [ hide ]1 Description2 Taxonomy2.1 Synonyms3 Reproduction and growth3.1 Phenology3.2 Growth4 Distribution5 Ecology6 Uses7 References8 External links Description [ edit]Ficus aurea sapling showing elliptic leaf shape at Long Key, Florida Ficus aurea is a tree which may reach heights of 30 m (98 ft).

Influenced by the music of Appalachia, [1] bluegrass has mixed roots in Irish, Scottish and English [2] traditional music, and was also later influenced by the music of African-Americans [3] through incorporation of jazz elements. Settlers from Britain and Ireland arrived in Appalachia during the 18th century, and brought with them the musical traditions of their homelands. [ 4] These traditions consisted primarily of English and Scottish ballads —which were essentially unaccompanied narrative—and dance music, such as Irish reels, which were accompanied by a fiddle. [ 5] Many older bluegrass songs come directly from the British Isles. Several Appalachian bluegrass ballads, such as \"\" Pretty Saro \"\", \"\" Cuckoo Bird \"\" and \"\" House Carpenter \"\", come from England and preserve the English ballad tradition both melodically and lyrically.

When the song ended and the station went to commercial, we switched to another station, and within minutes the falling melody of the cuatro came on again. Having just heard the song, we tried another station. And another. And then we realized that we’d run out of pop stations before going 10 minutes without hearing “Despacito. ”The sweltering pop reggaeton-love ballad hybrid has been everywhere this summer, playing in cities and suburbs, at house parties and barbecues, at wedding receptions and department stores, in people’s headphones during their commute. “Despacito” is inescapable and inevitable.

He also welcomed the opportunity to incorporate other bona-fide musicians onto the set when producers invited the Dillards bluegrass group from the Ozark Mountains to portray a family band called the Darlings. The Dillards -- fronted by brothers Douglas and Rodney Dillard -- had moved to Los Angeles from Missouri in the early '60s looking to broaden their audience. Rodney Dillard recently told The Times that they chose Los Angeles over Nashville because “we felt people were more open-minded, creative-wise. Nashville was formula cut-and-dried at the time. ”After signing with Elektra Records in 1962, they were hired to perform on “The Andy Griffith Show,” which was filmed in Hollywood.

The words of the song are particularly relevant from the point of view of the man in jail. The time drags so slowly (for him) and he wonders if his true love is still his, or has she found another? His world stays the same, day in, day out. To some people, the song is a dreary dirge, while to others it is the epitome of romance, the lover wanting the loved one so much that it occupies all their waking thoughts. An instrumental version recorded by the Les Baxter Orchestra took the tune to its first number one in the US. Also in 1955, the flamboyant pianist Liberace appeared at number 20 in the UK chart with his version, incidentally his only UK chart success. Since then, it has been recorded by no fewer than 670 artists, making it one of the most covered songs ever, and arguably the one with the most versions to become chart hits."

Where David’s love of history started – visiting Osborne and the impact of Queen Victoria Back in 1995 when I was 11, I went on an adventure (read: school trip) to the Isle of Wight. Part history project and part reward for completing primary school, we spent a week seeking out Isle’s treasures. The Needles, odd coloured sand, a donkey called Josephine… and a couple of amazing and unique historical buildings, which are the jewels in the Isle of Wight’s crown. There are still donkeys at Carisbrooke Castle. Their names traditionally all begin with J because it’s the letter that Charles I used to sign his letters when he was planning his escape routes. Apart from Josephine, Carisbrooke Castle is perhaps most famous for housing Charles I. He was in prison there for 14 months prior to his execution. Two hundred years later, the island gained another royal inhabitant – this time out of choice!Osborne House was Queen Victoria’s rather audacious holiday home."

After high school she was found on a radio program called Arthur Godfrey’s Talent Scouts. That appearances helped Connie get a position as a studio vocalist to get a record company where her voice would eventually glow. She was offered a contract but her first record releases didn’t sell well. Eventually Connie’s tune “Who’s Sorry Now?” became a hit, particularly after it had been played on Dick Clark’s American Bandstand. The single would continue to sell over a million copies in 1958."

It is a ballad, with lead singer Jimmy Ruffin recalling the pain that befalls the brokenhearted, who had love that's now departed. The song essentially deals with the struggle to overcome sadness while seeking a new relationship after a breakup. The tune was written by William Weatherspoon, Paul Riser, and James Dean, and the recording was produced by Weatherspoon and William \"\"Mickey\"\" Stevenson. \"\" What Becomes of the Brokenhearted\"\" remains one of the most-revived of Motown's hits. Composers Weatherspoon and Riser and lyricist Dean had originally written \"\"What Becomes of the Brokenhearted\"\" with the intention of having The Spinners, then an act on Motown's V. I. P. label, record the tune. Jimmy Ruffin, older brother of Temptations lead singer David Ruffin, persuaded Dean to let him record the song, as its anguished lyric about a man lost in the misery of heartbreak resonated with the singer. Ruffin's lead vocal on the recording is augmented by the instrumentation of Motown's in-house studio band, The Funk Brothers, and the joint backing vocals of Motown session singers The Originals and The Andantes. \"\" What Becomes of the Brokenhearted\"\" peaked at number seven on the Billboard Hot 100, and at number six on the Billboard R&B Singles chart, as well as No."

Meanwhile some members of the New Christy Minstrels (including Kenny Rogers) broke away to form their own group to do an elective mix of pop, rock and country songs. The idea was to have four lead singers in the group, each singing 3 songs on the album, which would provide 4 different sounds to choose from. In addition to Rogers, the group's vocalists were Mike Settle, Terry Williams and Thelma Camacho. The group was produced by Mike Post, who went on to fame as a TV theme song writer, writing the opening music for L. A. Law, Law & Order, Magnum P. I. and many others. In an interview with the Archive of American Television, Post recalls disliking Rogers as a singer, saying, \"\"I didn't know what he brought to the party.\"\" When the group needed another song to complete the album, Rogers brought in the Jerry Lee Lewis version of \"\"Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In),\"\" which Post described as \"\"Dope and Roll.\"\" They decided to perform it as a psychedelic song, and it became a hit and helped establish Rogers as a star."

He and brother T. J., who make up the rootsy duo Brothers Osborne, are holding court on the state of country. It's a topic on which many are quick to voice an opinion, but few do so as candidly and on the record as the Maryland-born siblings. Related PHOTOS: The 'Rum' Diaries: Exclusive Photos of Brothers Osborne on Tour With Eric Church T. J. Osborne talks bad lighting, good whiskey and touring with his guitarist brother John After years of being served a platter of infectious but typically vapid hits, fans are anxious to hear songs that mean something, Brothers Osborne contend. \"\" We went through an era of big hit songs that no one is going to listen to 10 years from now. And we're about to hit a decade of country that I think is going to be played for a long time. It's about to hit the same stride it hit in the Nineties,\"\" says T. J., who handles lead vocals opposite his guitarist brother. The band's debut single, \"\"Rum,\"\" released last year, put a workingman's twist on the drinking song subgenre and became a Top 30 hit, while new single \"\"Stay a Little Longer\"\" is poised to help effect the change they say is already happening in studios around Nashville. ( Watch the duo talk about the song in a video premiering today on Rolling Stone Country . ) The problem with today's populist hits, they believe, doesn't lie specifically in \"\"bro country,\"\" hip-hop-influenced country or pop country, but in unoriginal artists who copycat the hot sounds of the day. \"\""

Jenkins, a published author and bluegrass/old time enthusiast. Identifying with Bill Monroe comes naturally to 21 year-old Lauren Price from Sardis, Ohio. “ I’ve always had a reserved, even shy, disposition,” she says. “ I use my music to express those emotions I don’t always feel I can in a physical manner. I believe Monroe did this with his music.” A mandolin player who performs with her twin sister, Leanna, as The Price Sisters, Lauren takes advantage of modern technology to study the intricacies and idiosyncrasies of Monroe’s playing and to hone her chops. “ I’ve always been fascinated by detail. I have spent hours sitting in front of a computer with a CD of Monroe’s music in the player, clicking ‘play’ for a few seconds, then ‘pause’ while I figure out what he’s doing. ”What the Price Sisters are doing is preserving the traditions of bluegrass while adding their own special ingredients to the mix. Music has always been part of their lives."

Cava is probably the most popular sparkling wine in the world, and is definitely the \"\"value king\"\" when it comes to quality-to-price ratio. Since the beginning of Cava, it has rivaled Champagne, offering similar tastes for a fraction of the price. Cava was born in Catalonia in the late 19th century, after \"\"phylloxera\"\" (grape root bugs) destroyed most of the vineyards, which where mostly red grapes. With the great success Champagne was having around the world, local white varietals where planted to create sparkling wine: Macabeo, Parellada and Xarel·lo grapes. Within a couple of years, the winery of Codorniu crafted Spain's first Sparkling wine. In the past Cava was called \"\"Champan\"\", but once the European Union gave the French region of [Champagne] Exclusive rights to the name [Champagne], Spain changed the name of their sparkling wine to Cava, which translates to \"\"Cave\"\" in Latin, which is where the bottles where stored and aged. Cava was awarded with its own D. O. in 1986 as it was producing high-quality sparkling wines. Over 96% of the Cava production in Spain comes from the region of Catalonia, 4% of Cava's production is produced in the Spanish regions of: Aragon, Comunitat Valenciana, La Rioja, and Navarra, with all mentioned regions having rights to the D. O. Cava name. In order for a bottle of Cava to state \"\"D. O. Cava\"\", it must be made using the \"\"methode champenoise\"\", which includes fermenting the grapes and then bottling the wine, with a second fermentation occurring in the bottle."

The most common way was to harvest the grapes as late as possible. This method was advocated by Virgil and Martial in Roman times. In contrast, the ancient Greeks would harvest the grapes early, to preserve some of their acidity, and then leave them in the sun for a few days to allow them to shrivel and concentrate the sugar. In Crete, a similar effect was achieved by twisting the stalks of the grape to deprive them of sap and letting them dry on the vine—a method that produced passum and the modern Italian equivalent, passito. Stopping the fermentation also enhanced a wine's potential sweetness. In ancient times, this was achieved by submerging the amphoras in cold water till winter. ["

In 1772, Philippe Clicquot founded a wine-making business under the name Clicquot. In 1798, his son François, who had taken over the family enterprise, married Barbe Nicole Ponsardin. At the time of François' death in 1805, the young 27-year-old widow decided to continue her husband’s legacy. A woman of vision, she became the driving force behind the prestige and success of the brand, which in 1810 was renamed Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin. Ever in pursuit of excellence and innovation, in 1816 Madame Clicquot invented the riddling table with the aim of obtaining clarified Champagnes of unrivalled quality. She became known by her contemporaries as the \"\" Grand Dame of Champagne\"\", in recognition of her audacity and determination. Row by row, Madame Clicquot used her skills to develop an exceptional wine-growing territory, consisting of 515 hectares in the heart of the Champagne region’s finest vineyard estates. The entry level Veuve Clicquot Brut Yellow Label manages to reconcile two opposing factors - forcefulness and finesse - and to hold them in perfect balance. This consistent power to please makes it ideal as an aperitif, and perfect as the Champagne to enjoy with a meal."

Some terms have the same meaning as elsewhere in the wine world, but a few are specific to champagne. This is a personally compiled glossary of some terms that you might encounter. ( Copyright 2009 Champagne Guide.net via Peter Liem)Agrafe —Literally means \"\"staple\"\" (as in Swingline); in Champagne, this is a large metal clip used to secure the cork before capsules were invented, typically during the second fermentation and aging in bottle. A bottle secured with this clip is said to be agrafé. Assemblage —The blend, both in terms of the blend of different grape varieties or the blend of different base wines for a particular champagne. Autolysis —The chemical reactions caused by the breaking down of yeast cells through an enzymatic process, which occurs when a wine is left in contact with the lees over a long period of time. Autolysis is one of the fundamental processes in the making of champagne, as it imparts particular types of flavor complexity and textural finesse that can be achieved in no other way, and this is one of the main reasons for champagne's long aging on the lees in bottle after the second fermentation. See Lees Aging. Bague Carré —A square lip on the mouth of a bottle, used to secure the agrafe."

"text": "\"Sparkling Wines... save the bubbles ... Wines with bubbles are associated, for many people, primarily with festivities and celebrations. More precious and complicated to make than still wines, they have traditionally been considered as occasional extravagances. With higher acidity, more delicate flavor, their unique palate tingle and lower alcohol than most table wines, they are, however, some of the most versatile wines to accompany food. Modern production techniques have brought sparkling wines to market that are more affordable and accessible for everyday enjoyment. Bubbles in wine were known to vintners long before they could reliably capture and preserve this phenomenon in the bottle. As a natural by product of the fermentation process, carbon dioxide is released in the liquid to provide a \"\"sparkle.\"\" In the Northern climates, cold weather sometimes arrives early after harvest, stopping fermentation before the sugar is completely used up. Warm weather in the spring often causes it to start up again, resulting in carbonated wine. The English imported wine in casks. They found also that adding sugar to tart, acidic wine would often soon cause it to sparkle and they developed a liking for it."

Besides Champagne, there are a lot of great sparkling wine pairings listed below such as Cava, Prosecco, Franciacorta and American bubbly. Sparkling Wine Champagne only refers to the named wine producing region in France. Sparkling wine is made all over the world!Fried Mushrooms It’s a little known secret that fried food and Champagne are best friends. Go for a Blanc de Noirs (a white sparkling wine made with dark grapes like pinot noir) with fried mushrooms. The earthiness in the mushrooms is complimented by the more rich fruity/earthy notes that you’ll find common in a Blanc de Noir. An affordable American Blanc de Noirs such as Gruet, Chandon or Gloria Ferrer tend to have a slight sweetness to them."

"text": "The controversy surrounding the exact definition of Outsider Art and allied fields has been going on ever since awareness of the phenomenon began so here we try to clarify the different aspects. What is Outsider Art? The development of the awareness of forms of creative expression that exist outside accepted cultural norms, or the realm of “fine art”, began with the researches of psychiatrists early in the century. The work of Dr Morganthaler documented his patient Adolf Wolfli, a genius who produced countless thousands of works from a small cell in his Swiss asylum. Dr Hans Prinzhorn collected thousands of works by psychiatric patients and his book “Bildernerei der Geisteskranken” (Artistry of the Mentally Ill), published in 1922 became an influential work amongst Surrealist and other artists of the time. One artist who was particularly affected by the works Prinzhorn presented was Jean Dubuffet. Together with others, including Andre Breton, he formed the Compagnie de l’Art Brut in 1948 and strove to seek out and collect works of extreme individuality and inventiveness by creators who were not only untrained artists but often had little concept of an art gallery or even any other forms of art other than their own. Dubuffet’s concept of Art Brut, or Raw Art, was of works that were in their “raw” state, uncooked by cultural and artistic influences. He built up a vast collection of thousands of works, works which bore no relation to developments in contemporary art and yet were the innovative and powerful expressions of a wide range individuals from a variety of backgrounds. ART BRUTJean Dubuffet's original term for the works that he collected and revered; later adopted by the Collection de l'Art Brut at Lausanne."

A steadily ascending stream of bubbles rises in the glass, releasing a fragrant bouquet. Green apple and ripe pear aromas tickle your nose, while crisp flavors of apple and strawberry delight your palate. Our Brut is beautifully balanced with a pleasantly dry, refreshing finish. Vineyard & Winemaking We source our grapes from cool, foggy vineyards in California's best marine-influenced regions, where grapes ripen slowly and develop classic character and flavor. Our Brut is carefully crafted using traditional methods and our exclusive spinning cone process, which gently removes the alcohol while preserving our sparkling wine's delicate aromas, flavors and effervescence.

Excalibur Excalibur the Sword, by Howard Pyle (1902)Plot element from Arthurian legend In-story information Type Legendary sword Element of stories featuring King Arthur, Gawain Excalibur, or Caliburn, is the legendary sword of King Arthur, sometimes also attributed with magical powers or associated with the rightful sovereignty of Britain. Sometimes Excalibur and the Sword in the Stone (the proof of Arthur's lineage) are said to be the same weapon, but in most versions they are considered separate. Excalibur was associated with the Arthurian legend very early. In Welsh, it is called Caledfwlch; in Cornish, Calesvol; in Breton, Kaledvoulc'h; and in Latin, Caliburnus. Contents [ hide ]1 Forms and etymologies2 Excalibur and the Sword in the Stone3 Other development of the legend4 Attributes5 Arthur's other weapons6 Similar weapons7 See also8 Notes9 References10 Bibliography11 External links Forms and etymologies [ edit]The name Excalibur ultimately derives from the Welsh Caledfwlch (and Breton Kaledvoulc'h, Middle Cornish Calesvol) which is a compound of caled \"\"hard\"\" and bwlch \"\"breach, cleft\"\". [ 1] Caledfwlch appears in several early Welsh works, including the poem Preiddeu Annwfn (though it is not directly named - but only alluded to - here) and the prose tale Culhwch and Olwen, a work associated with the Mabinogion and written perhaps around 1100. The name was later used in Welsh adaptations of foreign material such as the Brut s (chronicles), which were based on Geoffrey of Monmouth. It is often considered to be related to the phonetically similar Caladbolg, a sword borne by several figures from Irish mythology, although a borrowing of Caledfwlch from Irish Caladbolg has been considered unlikely by Rachel Bromwich and D. Simon Evans. They suggest instead that both names \"\"may have similarly arisen at a very early date as generic names for a sword\"\"; this sword then became exclusively the property of Arthur in the British tradition.

By Ellen Horowitz This story is featured in Montana Outdoors July–August 2004Click here for a huckleberry cobbler recipe By July, many western Montana mountain ranges will be crawling with treasure hunters searching for purple gems. Armed with plastic buckets, coffee cans, or other containers, the prospectors comb hillsides from dawn to dusk. In coffee shops and cafes, they speak in hushed tones of finding “gold mines,” “mother lodes,” or “bonanzas. ”All this activity can mean only one thing: Montana’s prized wild fruit, the huckle-berry, is plentiful and ready to pick. The Montana huckleberry is closely related to the blueberry, though no self-respecting Montanan would compare the two. Hardcore huckleberry lovers insist their favorite fruit is far superior to the dull, flavorless blueberry, brought under domestication nearly two centuries ago. Plant taxonomists, however, do not consider flavor among important identifying features. Peter Stickney, curator emeritus at the University of Montana Herbarium, studied huckleberries for years and identified seven species in the Treasure State. Montana huckleberry plants range from 2 inches tall with berries the size of match heads to shrubs up to 6 feet tall with pea-sized and larger berries.“"

The automatic pump at Fishermen's Bend in Auke Bay, pictured here Friday, have the lowest prices in town. Gas prices have dipped below the $3 level in Juneau for the first time in years, seen here at Safeway on Wednesday. At 11 a.m. every weekday, Wade Bryson sits in a small swivel chair, leans close to a microphone, and listens to problems. For the past eight years, Bryson has been the host of KINY-AM’s “Problem Corner,” an on-air venue that’s part garage sale, part public forum. For more than a quarter-century, Juneau residents have turned to Problem Corner to sell their old cars, spread local news and talk about the issues troubling them. Lately, that talk has focused on one topic in particular: the price of gasoline. “Most people felt like they were getting gouged,” Bryson said, “because we heard stories all over the news about gas prices dropping, and Juneau’s just weren’t coming down. ... That just exacerbated everyone’s frustration with the high cost of living here. ”In quiet moments on the show, Bryson only had to mention the topic and the phones would light up, setting off a strobe light on a studio wall to indicate an incoming call."

Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations. ( July 2009) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Depiction is reference conveyed through pictures. Basically a picture refers to its object through a non-linguistic two-dimensional scheme. A picture is not writing or notation. A depictive two-dimensional scheme is called a picture plane and may be constructed according to descriptive geometry where they are usually divided between projections (orthogonal and various oblique angles) and perspectives (according to number of vanishing points). Pictures are made with various materials and techniques, such as painting, drawing, or prints (including photography and movies) mosaics, tapestries, stained glass, and collages of unusual and disparate elements. Occasionally, picture-like features may be recognised in simple inkblots, accidental stains, peculiar clouds or a glimpse of the moon, but these are special cases, and it is controversial whether they count as genuine instances of depiction. [ 1] Similarly, sculpture and theatrical performances are sometimes said to depict, but this requires a broad understanding of 'depict', as simply designating a form of representation that is not linguistic or notational. The bulk of studies of depiction however deal only with pictures."

"text": "The Truth About Single Length Golf Clubs January 26, 2015 by Bobby Lewis 6 Comments Congratulations to Bryson Dechambeau on winning the NCAA National Golf Championship — Bryson plays Single Length Golf Clubs. After playing golf for nearly 50 years, it’s fair to say I’ve tried every major golf club there is. Most of the big names build very respectable clubs and irons, but for a variety of reasons, I have never been completely satisfied with any of them. That dissatisfaction kept me searching for clubs that would work better for me, and my pursuit eventually led me to the One Iron Golf System. What are One Iron Golf Clubs? Single-Length Golf Clubs These are golf clubs that are all the same length — custom fitted to my body. Head weight, shaft weight, grip weight, swing weight, flex point and center of gravity are identical in all of my clubs, making the overall feel the same from one club to another. From my own experience, I’ve come to the opinion that single-length sets are superior to conventional sets. One Irons vs Conventional Sets Conventional irons and woods from club makers such as Callaway or Titleist are made with a ½ inch incremental progression between each club and varying club head lie angles throughout a set. Besides your driver and putter, this means you carry 12 clubs… with 12 different lengths… and 12 different lie angles."

STORYLINEIn 1988, Chris Bryson was found running down a Kansas City street naked, beaten, and bloody wearing nothing but a dog collar and a leash. He told police about Bob Berdella, a local business man and how Berdella had caputed him, held him hostage, raped him, tortured him, and photographed him over several days. Police later arrested Berdella and searched his mid-town Kansas City home where they found several hundred polaroid photographs, a detailed torture log, envelopes of human teeth and a human skull. It was soon discovered that Berdella had murdered six young men in his home after drugging them and performing his sick acts of sexual torture. He met a couple of the victims at his business, a small shop called “Bob’s Bizaare Bazaar” where he sold artifacts from around the world related to the darker side of human nature for people with jaded tastes. Some lived the horrors for only a few days, one for six weeks. After death, Berdella would cut up the bodies with an electric chain saw and a bone knife, place the body parts in empty dog food bags, put them into large trash bags setting them out for trash collection on Monday. It is believed that Berdella used specific organs of the victims as meat in several food dishes he would serve at his shop, although he denied this until the apprehension of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer one year later.imdb IMDB (3.9)Robert Berdella @ Murderpedia Robert Berdella @ Wikipedia Recommended Books (advertisement)When Chris Bryson was discovered nude and severely beaten stumbling down Charlotte Street in Kansas City in 1988, Police had no idea they were about to discover the den of one of the most sadistic American serial killers in recent history."

Highway 380 fourteen miles southwest of Jacksboro in southwestern Jack County, was known until the early 1880s as Mount Hecla, then renamed in honor of Henry Bryson, who built the first residence, a log house, in 1878 and later became a county commissioner. Postal service to Mount Hecla began in 1878; the name of the post office was changed to Bryson in 1884. The tracks of the Chicago, Rock Island and Texas Railway reached the community in 1903, and Bryson had its own bank by 1907. For the first fifty years of its history Bryson was mainly a business and school community of area cattlemen. Though oil was discovered in the county in 1898, not until the mid-1920s did Bryson become the processing center for local oil producers. Oil increased the town's population until Bryson became the second largest town in the county. By 1931 it was incorporated, and in 1947 it had an estimated 806 residents, the largest number in the town's history. As oil production declined, so did the population, which by the late 1970s was 450. In the early 1980s population growth resumed, and by 1988 Bryson had an estimated 690 residents served by seven businesses."

By Jake Kocorowski @Jake Koco B5Q Jan 3, 2018, 1:01pm CSTShare Photo by Zach Bolinger/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Not even a week past the No. 6 Wisconsin Badgers capping off a historic 13-win season with an Orange Bowl win, we’re already talking about what lies ahead next season. To be fair, what Wisconsin and head coach Paul Chryst have accomplished the past two years only lends more excitement and speculation. Two appearances in the Big Ten Championship Game, two New Year’s Six bowl victories, along with an infusion of talent from both younger players and upperclassmen leads to a successful outlook. So what does lie ahead for the 2018 Badgers, barring injuries or other unforeseen circumstances? Looking at Jim Leonhard’s defense, a lot will change—including who will help develop players at outside linebacker. Seven starters will depart (six seniors, one underclassman) and two other regular contributors are also leaving. Through Jan. 2, this defense ranked among the top 10—in most categories, top five—in the following: Second in total defense (262.1 yards per game) and team pass efficiency (96.39)Tied for second in defensive touchdowns (six)Third in scoring allowed (13.9 points per game) and rush defense (98.4 yards per game)Sixth in third-down conversions allowed (29.1 percent). Who the Badgers send onto the Camp Randall Stadium field when they face Western Kentucky on Aug. 31 will look very different from 2017’s unit."

"text": "Preparing for Your MSB Independent Review Posted on February 10, 2016 by Karen Schirmer 1336 0Money Services Businesses (MSBs) know that one of the four pillars of the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) is to have its BSA/AML compliance program (hereinafter the “program”) tested periodically by a qualified, independent party. The BSA/AML independent review (the “review”) provides valuable feedback to the MSB about the state of its AML compliance program, and it is also a document that is requested as part of regulatory examinations and bank-partner oversight. The purpose of this article is to share insights from a reviewer’s perspective in order to help MSBs prepare for upcoming reviews. Keep in mind that these insights do not reflect observations from any one client, but rather are general observations that are cumulative over time. In the beginning…The FFIEC has provided guidance that says a review is “an evaluation of the overall adequacy and effectiveness of the BSA/AML compliance program including policies, procedures and processes.” It is the reviewer’s job to evaluate that the program is designed and implemented to meet the applicable BSA requirements and that the program is tailored to the MSB’s AML risk profile. Reviewers take this mandate seriously and use the time before, during and after their on-site review to gather as much information as possible to make copious observations, identify findings and make best practices recommendations. The initial request for documents provides a roadmap as to what will be reviewed and tested. In fact, much of the review takes place prior to the on-site component. Therefore, the company’s AML Compliance Officer should take the time to fully review and understand the entire request list and ask clarifying questions as necessary."

This list does not include abbreviations for pharmaceuticals or drug name suffixes such as CD, CR, ER, XT (See Time release technology § List of abbreviations for those). Capitalization and the use of periods are a matter of style. In the list, abbreviations in English are capitalized whereas those in Latin are not. These abbreviations can be verified in reference works, both recent [1] and older.

"text": "\"Add to My List Edit this Entry Rate it: (2.50 / 10 votes)Translation Find a translation for BSA in other languages: Select another language: Definition What does BSA mean? Body surface area In physiology and medicine, the body surface area is the measured or calculated surface of a human body. For many clinical purposes BSA is a better indicator of metabolic mass than body weight because it is less affected by abnormal adipose mass. Nevertheless, there have been several important critiques of the use of BSA in determining the dosage of medications with a narrow therapeutic index like many chemotherapy medications. Typically there is a 4-10 fold variation in cytotoxic drug clearance between individuals due to differing activity of drug elimination processes related to genetic and environmental factors. This can lead to significant overdosing and even more perniciously to underdosing. It is also thought to be a distorting factor in Phase I and II trials that may result in potentially helpful medications being prematurely rejected. The trend to personalized medicine is one approach to counter this weakness. Estimation of BSA is simpler than many measures of volume.see more »Embed Click to view: Image source: Embed as image: Embed as a link: Discuss this BSA abbreviation with the community: Citation Use the citation below to add this abbreviation to your bibliography: Style: MLA Chicago APA\"\"BSA.\"\" Abbreviations.com."

"text": "\"Boy Scout Advancement Requirements Changes Effective January 1, 2014 (with updates announced through June 28, 2014)When there is a conflict between two published lists of requirements, such as Boy Scout Requirements (BSA Publication No. 33216) and a Merit Badge pamphlet or the Boy Scout Handbook, the requirements book should normally be considered to be the controlling document, until a newer edition of Boy Scout Requirements is issued. However, the following excerpt from the Guide to Advancement, 2013 explains what to do when merit badge requirements change:7.0.4.3 What to Do When Requirements Change The current annual edition of Boy Scout Requirements lists the official merit badge requirements. Once new or revised merit badge requirements appear in this publication, which is released each January, any Scout just beginning work on a merit badge must use the requirements as stated there. If changes to merit badge requirements are introduced in a revised merit badge pamphlet after the January release of the Boy Scout Requirements book, then the Scout has until the following January 1 to decide what to do. He may continue—or begin work—using the old merit badge requirements and the old pamphlet; or he may switch to—or begin work—using the new requirements and the new pamphlet. Unless it is otherwise stated in the merit badge pamphlet, Boy Scout Requirements, or official communications from the National Council, if a Scout chooses to use the old merit badge requirements and pamphlet, he may continue using them until he has completed the badge. There is no time limit between starting and completing a badge, although a counselor may determine so much time has passed since any effort took place that the new requirements must be used. A new edition of Boy Scout Requirements ( #33216 - SKU#619576) was released in February, 2014. It contains changes to the Eagle Scout rank and the requirements for 5 new merit badges."

The BSA Procurement and Property Management (PPM) Division will implement the AMS by using a variety of commercial practices that also comply with the Department of Energy (DOE) Prime Contract and statutory requirements. BSA procurement practices are designed for consistent application by using standard terms and conditions approved by BSA's Legal Counsel, specific procurement guidelines, and the operating principles listed below. Authority & Responsibilities The PPM Manager is responsible for the establishment, approval, dissemination, implementation and surveillance of procurement principles and guidelines that effectively incorporate general policies and establish a viable procurement operation at BNL. Only those persons possessing specifically delegated authority may make commitments or sign documents with contractors or third parties that contractually bind the Laboratory. Operating Principles BSA prefers procurement on a fixed price basis of standard commercial materials, supplies and services that meet quality, size and performance standards. Effective competition is the preferred procurement approach commensurate with the dollar value and complexity of the requirement. The Competition Advocate is responsible for ensuring that effective competition is maintained in accordance with best commercial practices. BSA will use capable and reliable suppliers that have demonstrated either successful past performance or superior capability to meet BSA’s requirements. BSA will establish quality partnerships with suppliers by treating them fairly and will enter into long-term business relationships when it is in the best interest of BSA."

Chemotherapy may be given with a curative intent (which almost always involves combinations of drugs), or it may aim to prolong life or to reduce symptoms (palliative chemotherapy). Chemotherapy is one of the major categories of the medical discipline specifically devoted to pharmacotherapy for cancer, which is called medical oncology."

"text": "Show Conflicts of Interest and Funding Show Author Contribution Show Abbreviations Introduction Section: Choose prevnext Normal standards for both the thoracic and abdominal aortic diameter at multiple levels have been established for adults and can be used to determine stenosis or aneurysm formation ( 1 ). Standards for infants (1 month to 1 year old), children (birth to 12 years old or 1–12 years old), adolescents (13–17 years old), and young adults (18–24 years old) (hereafter, individuals in these age groups will be referred to collectively as “children”) are not as well established. Echocardiography standards for the thoracic aorta rely on planar measurements rather than on transverse measurements. The planar image is created along the long axis of the aorta. As such, only one diameter can be measured at a given level of the aorta. An assumption is made that the plane precisely bisects the aorta and that the aorta is perfectly round. Cross-sectional imaging standards using computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the thoracic aorta are limited in children, and no standards exist for the abdominal aorta ( 2 – 4 ). Determining diffuse aortic hypoplasia in conditions such as Williams syndrome or aneurysmal dilatation in children with Marfan disease is hampered by the lack of reliable standards ( 1 ). Our purpose was to establish a set of standards for the effective aortic diameter, the mean of anteroposterior and transverse diameter measurements of the aorta at multiple levels of the thoracic aorta, abdominal aorta, and common iliac arteries in children of a wide range of sizes by using CT.

The highest award in Cub Scouts is earned by Webelos that have been active participants in their den and are ready to join a Boy Scout troop. Many of the requirements for the Arrow of Light are intended to familiarize the scout with a local troop and hopefully show him that crossing over into a troop is the next step to take in scouting. A scout that earns his Arrow of Light patch has also completed nearly all the requirements to earn the Scout badge in the troop so he has already begun his Boy Scout trail. Be active in your Webelos den for at least six months since completing the fourth grade (or for at least six months since becoming 10 years old), and earn the Webelos badge. Show your knowledge of the requirements to become a Boy Scout by doing all of these: Repeat from memory and explain in your own words the Scout Oath or Promise and the 12 points of the Scout Law. Tell how you have practiced them in your everyday life. Give and explain the Scout motto, slogan, sign, salute, and handshake. Understand the significance of the First Class Scout badge."

Amount of drug per square meter of body surface (BSA), e.g. 10 mg/m2 BSA.

"text": "ASSESSMENT OF ENERGY EXPENDITURETHREE-DAY ACTIVITY RECALLAn individuals total energy expenditure (TEE) comprises the number of calories expended during physical activity, the number of calories needed to digest food (DIT) and the number of calories expended during sleep ( BMR ). Physical Activity Energy Expenditure Any hope of changing the pattern and quality of daily physical activity must be predicated on an accurate appraisal of the daily energy expenditure. Maintenance of body weight and body composition is controlled by a relatively simple interaction of diet and physical activity (although each itself is extremely complex). Diet corresponds to the fuel for the system, or �input� (refer to homework assignment #1) and physical activity is the expenditure of the fuel, or �output�. When the input does not equal output, the system is out of balance and energy (in the form of body weight) is not maintained. For example, if your average daily diet consists of 2130 k Cal, but your average daily energy expenditure is only 1880 k Cal, then on any day you would be taking in 250 more k Cals than you are expending. That may not seem like much (about 3 cookies), but over time calories add up. In two weeks you would have expended 3500 k Cals less than you have eaten. That is approximately equal to one pound of fat. If you continue on the same diet and physical activity pattern for a whole year, you will probably weigh nearly 26 lbs heavier than if you were in caloric balance."

B-P, a 50-year old bachelor at the time, was one of the few heroes to come out of Britain's 2nd South African ('Boer') War. He was known primarily for his unusual ideas about military scouting, explained in his book Aids to Scouting. Startled to discover that many boys were using his military book as a guide to outdoor activities, he began to think how he could convert his concepts of army scouting for men to \"\"peace scouting\"\" for boys. Gathering ideas from many sources, he tested his program on a group of boys on Brownsea Island in 1907. The island camp was successful, so B-P rewrote his military book, calling it Scouting for Boys."

This year, the dues are due by 2/13/2015. Dues have been set at the parent meeting to be as follows: Dues to the troop - $80 (set in 2011, used to help pay for campouts, badges, and gear expenses)Registration for scout - $24 (goes to BSA)Registration for one parent of scout - $24 (goes to BSA)Boys Life - $12 (goes to BSA for the magazine subscription)So, for a family with one scout, we need to collect $140.00. Additional scouts from the same family would be an additional $104 ($140 for the first scout plus $80 dues +$24 BSA registration for the second) which assumes that the family would not get a second copy of Boy's Life and that the family would also only register 1 adult. The subscription to Boy's Life for each family is not a requirement, but the troop receives special recognition for 100% Boy's Life status (1 subscription per scout family) and most scouts seem to like the magazine. We know that times are tight - if a family is having a problem with paying the registration fees and dues, please let Mr. York know ASAP so we can try to work something out as a troop family. Registration and dues are pro-rated for scouts who turn 18 during the scout year. Registration is different for Webelos crossing over as they are usually registered first in the pack, and then transfered to the troop (the transfer fee of $1 takes the place of the registration fee). Families who do not turn in their dues by 2/13/2015 risk not being registered with the troop. We need to complete rechartering on time so please help us in this!These dues help cover the cost of patches, campout costs not covered by the standard fee, new equipment, equipment maintenance, ceremonies, and occasionally are also used towards special events."

[email protected] Next Section Summary The GFR has a paramount diagnostic and staging role in the Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative Clinical Practice Guidelines for Chronic Kidney Disease (K/DOQI-CKD). The most widely used serum creatinine-based formulas in adults for estimated GFR (e GFR) are the Cockcroft-Gault (CG) and Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study (MDRD). Recently, a new Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation has been developed. Review of the literature revealed that CG and MDRD formulas correctly assigned overall only 64% and 62%, respectively, of the subjects to their actual K/DOQI-CKD classification's GFR groups as determined by measured GFR (m GFR). This suggests that approximately 10 million (38%) subjects may have been misclassified on the basis of estimated CKD prevalence of 26.3 million adults in the United States. The purpose of this review is to help the clinician understand the limitations of using e GFR in daily practice. We also elaborate upon issues such as the differences among markers of m GFR, the validity of adjusting GFR for body surface area in certain populations, the limited data on boundaries for normal m GFR according to age, gender, and race, the need for calibration of a wide spectrum of serum creatinine measurements, the lack of actual e GFR value above 60 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 and reference for normal m GFR in the clinical laboratories' reports, and the performance evaluation of the e GFR formulas. Several pitfalls have to be overcome before we can reliably determine health and disease in daily nephrology practice to preserve the first rule of practicing medicine: primum non nocere."

On the other hand, since nearly 60,000 people a year become Eagle Scouts, it's not likely to be seen as such a singular accomplishment that it will carry overriding significance; just one data point in your favor."

A well-run group of Webelos is a gradual change from being an 'adult-run' den to being a 'scout-run' patrol ready to fit right into an adventurous Boy Scout troop. This migration requires the parents and den leaders to give the scouts more and more control, decision-making power, and responsibility as they progress in skills, abilities, and maturity. How to Join: Go to Be AScout.org Click the 'Cub Scouts' tab. Enter your zipcode and click the arrow button. Click on a Pack near you to see its contact info so you can call the Pack or your local Council about joining. Complete a BSA Youth Application and Health Record and give them to the Cubmaster of the Pack you choose. Webelos Program: The Webelos program has two major milestones - the Webelos rank badge to be earned toward the end of 4th grade and the Arrow of Light to be earned in 5th grade. The final part of Webelos is bridging over into a Boy Scout troop selected individually by the scout. Once the goals of Webelos are understood, the methods of the program make a lot of sense!Webelos Advancement Webelos Scouts do adventures described in their Webelos handbook that advance them towards their Webelos rank."

How to Estimate a Gas Furnace Size How to Determine Proper Furnace Size The Average BTU of a Home Oven BTU, or British thermal unit, is the industry-standard used to measure the heating efficiency of furnaces. In addition to BTU ratings, furnace manufacturers might include a Manual J Load rating and a percentage of energy efficiency. When choosing a furnace, the BTU rating helps estimate how much heat energy it will require to heat your home. However, there isn’t an average BTU for all furnace sizes, because there are several variables that influence the overall BTU rating and efficiency. BTUs Explained BTU is a unit of measurement that measures the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. Furnaces are measured in how many BTUs they use per hour to achieve this temperature increase. For example, a furnace rated as 100,000 BTU input uses 100,000 BTU per hour. Your furnace will also be rated for its annual fuel-utilization efficiency (AFUE). This shows how effectively the furnace turns gas into heating energy."

This data is based on actual project costs as reported by Home Advisor members. Whether you need to replace a dead furnace or install an entirely new heating system, you're looking at a significant investment. Before you even start shopping for a shiny new furnace, you should consider consulting with a licensed HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) professional. Your HVAC pro can look at your particular house - its size, configuration, age - and help you determine the best and most cost-effective way to heat it. The first question to hash out with your HVAC contractor is the kind of fuel you should use: gas, electric, oil or something else. Most homeowners stick to whatever their homes already had to minimize the labor and costs associated with extra installation of things like duct work or running electric lines. But there could be reasons to change. Your location, house size, and energy bills will all factor in to your final decision on which furnace type, model, and size is right for your home.

"text": "\"Home Buying Guides HVAC HVAC Units Other HVAC Units What Size Air Conditioning Unit Do I Need for My Business?e Bay 3 Likes Like March 3, 2016Cooling a business office can be expensive, but improved employee comfort can improve performance and production, which makes the extra investment worth it. However, the biggest concern when looking to purchase an air conditioning unit or to upgrade a current unit includes determining what size unit best fits the workspace. If the unit is not big enough, then it will not adequately cool off the office. Purchase too big of a unit, and the air flow might become restricted if the ductwork is inadequate. Before buying or replacing an air conditioning unit, shoppers should educate themselves on the different air conditioning unit types, including single and multi-stage units, the different sizes, and the number of BTUs or tons that they need to cool an office space. They should also determine which design best fits their needs, such as a rooftop unit, a cooling tower, or another type of air conditioning unit. Types of Air Conditioning Unit Stages When purchasing an air conditioning unit, shoppers must decide whether they need a single or multi-stage unit. Both types are described in the table below. Different Unit Stages Description Single-Stage Unit Most often used in home environments or at hotels but can be found in smaller businesses; single-stage refers to the fact that the unit only has one setting, \"\"on\"\"Multi-Stage Unit Offer users the ability to operate the system at different outputs, for example 60 or 100 percent, for different levels of cooling; more efficient than single-stage; costs more For most offices, especially larger ones, multi-stage units give office managers and business owners the option of setting the output of the unit depending on the time of day or year. So, an air conditioning unit can be set for 60 percent of its normal output for the fall months, but when summer rolls around, users can set it a little higher."

It is the basic measure of heat energy used in the Imperial system. When you understand the number of BTUs you require per square foot of your space, you will have an easy time in choosing the correct size of an AC system or a furnace for effective cooling and heating your home. Determining the Heating or Cooling Needs The first step in the determination of the BTUs you need is to calculate the space to be heated or cooled. If your rooms are triangular, rectangular or any other definite shape, all you need is to calculate the area. However, in the event your room does not have a definite shape, you must divide it into spaces that take regular shapes. Use the geometric formulas to calculate the areas. Rectangles = length x width; Triangles = 0.5 x base x height; circles = 3.14 x the square of the radius. Thereafter, add all the areas to find the total square footage. Basement, upstairs and attic rooms should be included if you have ductwork running to these floors."

Capacity is measured in British thermal units (one BTU is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of a pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit). A furnace rated 50,000 BTU consumes 50,000 BTUs an hour. Typical costs: Furnaces that are the heart of a gas central heating system are typically sold by an HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) contractor, with installation included, and the AFUE rating is a major factor in the price. Replacing an aging gas furnace with a standard-efficiency model (80% AFUE, which means that 80% of its fuel is converted to heat) starts at about $1,700-$4,000, including installation, but depending on complexity and location it can cost $5,000-$8,000 or more. Installing a new high-efficiency (90%-97% AFUE) gas furnace starts at about $2,500-$6,000 but depending on complexity and location it can cost $7,000-$12,000 or more. Cost Helper readers report paying $2,695-$5,000 for basic installation of a 95%-96% gas furnace, at an average cost of $3,465. Replacing an oil furnace with a gas-fired model can cost thousands of dollars more than replacing one gas furnace with another, because of the cost to remove the old oil tank ($500-$3,000 or more) and to install new gas lines, fittings, valves and other parts of the system to work with the new gas furnace. A Cost Helper reader reports paying $6,500 to replace an oil furnace with a gas unit. A wall-mounted gas furnace that provides hot air directly to the surrounding space can cost $400-$2,500 for just the unit, depending on size, BTUs, AFUE rating, air outlet location (top outlets are typically slightly cheaper than bottom outlet models) and the controls (a wall-mount or cabinet-mount thermostat or a remote control)."

S. economy. Steel is the material of choice for many elements of construction, transportation, manufacturing, and a variety of consumer products. It is the backbone of bridges, skyscrapers, railroads, automobiles, and appliances. Most grades of steel used today - particularly high-strength steels that are lighter and more versatile - were not available a decade ago. 1The U. S. steel industry (including iron production) relies significantly on natural gas and coal coke and breeze for fuel, and is one of the largest energy consumers in the manufacturing sector. The industry accounts for roughly six percent of the total energy consumed in manufacturing ( Figure 1 ). Including fuel and feedstock use, this industry is responsible for approximately 60 percent of the total energy consumed in the primary metals sub-sector.

An average pilot light is about 1000 btu's. 90,000 ÷ 1,000 = 90.0 So, your pilot light will burn 1 gallon every 90 hours. 90 X 5 gallons = 450 hours. 450 ÷ 24 hours = 18.75 days. Since we don't know the exact btu rating of the pilot I would suggest a 5 gallon (it's a cylinder, not a tank) will last around 18 days. They use a lot more than you might think!"

"text": "\"Written by Tony Guerra; Updated June 16, 2017Related Articles How to Estimate a Gas Furnace Size How to Determine Proper Furnace Size The Average BTU of Furnaces How to Measure the BTUs for the Size of a House A BTU is a British Thermal Unit, or a measure of thermal or heat energy. BTUs are used to determine thermal energy output in a variety of devices, including furnaces. A typical home furnace produces thousands of BTUs and installing one that meets your home's heating needs is vital. If your home's furnace is too large, it will turn on and off too often and lose efficiency and, if it's too small, it will run too often and won't adequately heat your home. BTUs per Square Foot Heating and air conditioning contractors use various load calculations to determine furnace sizes for homes and these calculations are often complex. But there are also \"\"rule-of-thumb\"\" estimations you can use to pick a furnace size for your home. For cooler climates, a very broad estimate of furnace sizing is to select one that generates 40 to 45 BTUs per square foot. At 40 to 45 BTUs per square foot, you'd need a 100,000 to 112,500 BTU furnace to heat your 2,500-square-foot home. Heating Degree-Day Calculation A heating degree-day calculation, using the month of July as a factor, is a more precise way of estimating furnace size. Natural gas for a furnace is priced by the therm, or per 100,000 BTUs."

Basics of Corn Stoves Types of Corn-Fuelled Appliances Price of Corn Cost of Heating with Corn Limitations of Burning Corn for Heat Stove-Buying Criteria Corn Storage Burning Wood Pellets or Other Grains Corn stoves are again gaining interest as a means to heat homes, other out-buildings, and even larger commercial buildings. More than 20 companies make a range of sizes and models of corn-fuelled appliances such as stoves, furnaces and hydronic hot water furnaces, which can be tailored to specific needs. The decisions to consider shelled corn as a fuel, which stove, furnace or boiler to buy and how to store the fuel corn are challenging. Unlike other home heating systems where the fuel is delivered through a pipe or a wire, corn-fuelled appliances need corn fed into them manually in order to produce heat. The corn storage system can be very simple or more complex, with simple corn storage systems usually involving daily manual labour. Corn – A Hands-on Heating Fuel Having a corn-burning appliance in the home requires daily attention – removing the clinker (residue) or delivering fuel to the unit. This process harkens back to the \"\"good old days\"\" and heating with a wood stove before the arrival of central heating systems in homes. These units can operate for a time unattended but do need attention to ensure fuel availability and routine cleaning of ash build-up to provide safe, efficient operation."

Air Conditioning Tonnage explained by AC Warehouse“Air Conditioning Tonnage” is one of the most mysterious phrases in the HVAC industry. Sometimes it seems like air conditioning technicians and engineers have an entire language of their own. Some of the words these folks use are common, but the way they use them is not. If you are an air conditioning repair customer, being educated in this terminology could be helpful. Air Conditioning Tonnage is a term for rating air conditioning units. Many people think it has something to do with how many tons of air the unit handled in a given time. Air Conditioning Tonnage – What is it? Air conditioning tonnage has nothing to do with weight. A ton, as used in the HVAC field, is a term that describes how much heat the AC unit can remove from a home in one hour."

Follow 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: A BTU is a measure of Heat A Ton in HVAC is a measure of Cooling Rate. You can have 12,000 BTU's per Hour This is important to denote the rate, because I could rate an air conditioner at 35,000 btu's but what does that mean? a 1 ton system is capable of removing a max of 12,000 btu's per hour at standard conditions. However even that is suspect because you need to factor in ambient temperature as well as heat gain to the load. So in effect the ton rating isn't very accurate unless you know the conditions that it is rated at.

You have probably stumble in this heating and air acronym when charged to select equipment for heating and air conditioning. Let’s get started by quoting from Wikipedia: HSPF ( Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) is a term used in the heating and cooling industry. HSPF is specifically used to measure the efficiency of air source heat pumps. The efficiency of air conditioners are often rated by the Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) as defined by the Air Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute in its standard 210/240 Performance Rating of Unitary Air-Conditioning and Air-Source Heat Pump Equipment. The higher the HSPF rating of a unit, the more energy efficient it is. HSPF is a ratio of BTU heat output over the heating season to watt-hours of electricity used. It has units of BTU/watt-hr. Depending on the system, an HSPF ≥ 8 can be considered high efficiency and worthy of a US Energy Tax Credit."

The word protein is derived from the Greek proteios, meaning “of the first rank”. The term was coined in 1838 by the Swedish scientist Jöns Berzelius, to reflect the importance of this group of molecules. A stretch of DNA called a gene carries the information required to build a protein. It is believed that there are between 20,000 and 25,000 genes in the human genome (1), but over 1 million proteins in the human proteome (2), making proteins the most abundant class of all biological molecules. The difference between the number of genes and proteins is due the fact that one gene is able to give rise to more than one protein, and that once produced, proteins can be chemically modified (usually by other proteins) to change their properties and activities. The building blocks of proteins are amino acids."

In order to repair any assembly, RP, DC, PVB or SVB, it is important that the repair technician first understand how the backflow prevention assemblies are supposed to work, so that when they are not working, the problem can be properly identified. The purpose of the repair process is to return the assembly back into its original factory specifications. When we are field testing any of these assemblies, we are making a diagnostic analysis at one point in space and time. From this data, we cannot say how the backflow prevention assembly worked yesterday or if it will work tomorrow, only what it is doing right now. When we perform the field test, we are generating data on the workings of the assembly, which we must compare to the minimum acceptable performance data as established in our accepted test procedure. For example, two (2.0) PSID is the minimum acceptable relief valve opening point, but few assemblies are designed to open at 2.0 PSID. For this reason, when we get a performance value from a field test, whether it be a relief valve opening point, or a check valve value, we must understand what is happening in the backflow prevention assembly. Reduced Pressure Principle Backflow Prevention Assembly (RP)To understand what happens inside an RP, let us flow water through a generic backflow prevention assembly.

The suppressor is the most accurate term but the ATF actually uses the term Silencer in the law and Can is more of a slang term. “Walking” or “Walk off” – Refers to the suppressor becoming unthreaded from the barrel when a person shoots. The suppressor can come loose and cause baffle strikes. “Baffle” – A mechanical piece of the suppressor used to guide gas/pressure to the desired direction.

Learning Objectives Describe the actions that occur due to water’s polarity Key Takeaways Key Points The difference in electronegativities between oxygen and hydrogen atoms creates partial negative and positive charges, respectively, on the atoms. Water molecules attract or are attracted to other polar molecules. Molecules that do not dissolve in water are known as hydrophobic (water fearing) molecules. Key Termshydrophilic: having an affinity for water; able to absorb, or be wetted by waterhydrophobic: lacking an affinity for water; unable to absorb, or be wetted by waterpolarity: The intermolecular forces between the slightly positively-charged end of one molecule to the negative end of another or the same molecule. One of water’s important properties is that it is composed of polar molecules. The two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom within water molecules (H 2 O) form polar covalent bonds. While there is no net charge to a water molecule, the polarity of water creates a slightly positive charge on hydrogen and a slightly negative charge on oxygen, contributing to water’s properties of attraction. Water’s charges are generated because oxygen is more electronegative, or electron loving, than hydrogen. Thus, it is more likely that a shared electron would be found near the oxygen nucleus than the hydrogen nucleus."

The fiberglass Gel Coat has different requirements from a painted coach or coaches with other types of finishes. Gel Coat really needs to be sealed, rather than waxed. I waxed our 1997 U270 roof for years but was disappointed to find oxidation was building up in spite of my keeping the roof very clean. I could tell because my cleaning rags had a white chalky residue. The sides also had a shiny but cloudy appearance. I researched what to do for Gel Coat specifically and learned that the pores of our fiberglass really need to be sealed. Wax just fills in the pores but doesn't seal. Wax doesn't do much to retard oxidation. The sides don't take the direct sun beating down for hours so the sides will never need as much maintenance as the roof."

To prevent the solutions from boiling over/vaporizing, the autoclave chamber is pressurized during this process. Most buffers and other solutions used in any lab are sterilized before use to prevent bacterial and fungal growth during storage. There are two basic techniques for sterilizing solutions: autoclaving and sterile filtration. Many buffers and other salt solutions are autoclaved because filtration of large volumes is time-consuming and expensive. However, before autoclaving any solution you should always check whether it contains any heat-labile ingredients ( Media Recipes ). If it does, the heat-labile substance will usually have to be prepared separately, filter-sterilized, and added to the remainder of the solution after autoclaving. Also, certain combinations of compounds that are stable when autoclaved on their own can react at the high temperatures in the autoclave to produce compounds that inhibit microbial growth (e.g. Mg and glucose)Autoclave Most buffers and salt solutions Rich bacterial and yeast media broth Do Not Autoclave Buffers with detergents (SDS) – they will boil over Organic solvents that are volatile and/or flammable (ethanol, acetone, phenol, chloroform) Heat labile ingredients (vitamins, hormones, antibiotics, proteins), HEPES solutions DTT (dithiothreitol) or BME (beta-mercaptoethanol) Among many others... Be sure the containers you are autoclaving things in are also safe: bottles should be made from borosilicate glass or autoclavable plastic – be sure that any plastic items you put in the autoclave are really autoclavable (polypropylene is OK, polystyrene is NOT). Pipet tips, microfuge tubes, and their storage containers generally are autoclavable, if unsure please ask about other plastics before you experiment and make a mess. General autoclave use: Leave at least a quarter of the container volume as free space (otherwise your solutions will boil over)."

Since the camera came out, I have used it on several occasions for both personal and business needs, and a number of our team members have owned or still own the D4. Hence, the information and images that I gathered for this review represent a collective effort between our team at Photography Life. Being a top-of-the-line DSLR from Nikon, the D4 is a specialized tool that is primarily targeted at news, sports and wildlife photographers. With a 16 MP sensor that is capable of capturing images all the way to ISO 204,800, up to 11 frames per second continuous shooting speed, a huge buffer for photographing fast action, a solid all-metal construction and a high-end ergonomic design, the Nikon D4 is a serious camera for serious needs. After owning the Nikon D3s for 4 years, I really struggled with the decision to upgrade to the D4. The thing is, back when the D3s came out, Nikon only had the D700 as the lower-end FX option, which was noticeably worse in image quality. So if one wanted to get the best image quality, the only option was to move up to the D3s. At $5,200, there was a bit more than $2K price difference between the D700 and the D3s."

I also have sensitive skin, rosacea, and recently seborrhetic dermatitis (facial dandruff). Would you please explain what causes milia, and the best way to prevent them. I suspect that I get more milia when I’ve been using suncreens w/ zinc. Is this possible, or am I off-base? My best defense in the past has been Retin-A, but my skin has been more sensitive lately. Thank you, Susan Dear Susan,Milia are small cysts that are actually little pockets formed from your top skin layer called the epidermis. They look like pinpoint hard white cysts, sometimes with a blackhead like opening to the skin surface. When a person has a lot of them the skin takes on a cobbled appearance. The white material in a milium (single for milia) is made up of cells from the dead skin layer called the stratum corneum."

"text": "Activity 3: Restriction Enzyme digestion - How does it work? Why is it useful? Introduction Special enzymes termed restriction enzymes have been discovered in many different bacteria and other single-celled organisms. These restriction enzymes are able to scan along a length of DNA looking for a particular sequence of bases that they recognize. This recognition site or sequence is generally from 4 to 6 base pairs in length. Once it is located, the enzyme will attach to the DNA molecule and cut each strand of the double helix. The restriction enzyme will continue to do this along the full length of the DNA molecule which will then break into fragments. The size of these fragments is measured in base pairs or kilobase (1000 bases) pairs. Since the recognition site or sequence of base pairs is known for each restriction enzyme, we can use this to form a detailed analysis of the sequence of bases in specific regions of the DNA in which we are interested. In the presence of specific DNA repair enzymes, DNA fragments will reanneal or stick themselves to other fragments with cut ends that are complimentary to their own end sequence."

Depending on the type of organisms suspected in the sample, transport media may vary. However in general, transport media are classified on the basis of physical state as semi solid and liquid and also in basis of their utility as bacterial or viral transport media. What does a transport media contain? Contains only buffers and salt. Doesn’t contain any nutritional ingredients such as carbon, nitrogen, and organic growth factors so as to prevent microbial multiplication. Addition of antibiotics and other substances like glycerol may be added for transporting specimens for tissue culture. What samples are collected in transport medium? All types of samples that may contain pathogens but could not be processed immediately requires transport medium. It may be Stool, urethral swabs, Nasal and throat swabs and specimens for tissue culture etc."

For hundreds of years wood has been the traditional material for casks and vessels for holding beer: now it is being replaced by other materials, including aluminum. Not only is beer acidic but it contains live organisms that can cause biofouling and biocorrosion. Beer can be corrosive to the tanks and fluid lines used in the brewing process, and it can be corrosive to the brewery building too. Several common problems, causes and solutions will be discussed here in the hope that this information will help both micro and homebrewers. ( reference)Beer and Concrete Let's start at the ground level with the concrete floors found in most commercial breweries. Beer, and particularly wheat beer, can act as a weak acid, dissolving the lime in the concrete. Bacteria can grow in the porosity of the concrete feeding off the sugars that soak in. Once bacteria becomes entrenched, it can only be removed by removing the contaminated concrete. This can be done by grit blasting or acid etching but if the contamination is deep, several inches of concrete may need to be removed to get rid of the infestation and accompanying stench."

Learning Objectives Describe the actions that occur due to water’s polarity Key Takeaways Key Points The difference in electronegativities between oxygen and hydrogen atoms creates partial negative and positive charges, respectively, on the atoms. Water molecules attract or are attracted to other polar molecules. Molecules that do not dissolve in water are known as hydrophobic (water fearing) molecules. Key Termshydrophilic: having an affinity for water; able to absorb, or be wetted by waterhydrophobic: lacking an affinity for water; unable to absorb, or be wetted by waterpolarity: The intermolecular forces between the slightly positively-charged end of one molecule to the negative end of another or the same molecule. One of water’s important properties is that it is composed of polar molecules. The two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom within water molecules (H 2 O) form polar covalent bonds. While there is no net charge to a water molecule, the polarity of water creates a slightly positive charge on hydrogen and a slightly negative charge on oxygen, contributing to water’s properties of attraction. Water’s charges are generated because oxygen is more electronegative, or electron loving, than hydrogen. Thus, it is more likely that a shared electron would be found near the oxygen nucleus than the hydrogen nucleus."

"text": "Buffered vitamin C is a form of the nutrient vitamin C, essential to human bodies, that is combined with calcium, magnesium, and some form of potassium. Sodium may be added as well. For individuals who have digestive trouble as a result of taking straight vitamin C, the buffered type is said to make digestion easier; it often releases more slowly than vitamin C alone does as well. This supplement can also provide the benefits of the added minerals used for buffering. Humans are one of the only mammals that cannot create vitamin C in the body. The nutrient may be found naturally in many foods, but it may also be necessary to take a daily supplement. Buffered vitamin C can come in the form of a chewable tablet, a capsule, or a powder. The high acidity levels in vitamin C supplements can cause digestive problems for people who are ill, have a weak stomach, or consume large doses of the vitamin. An upset stomach and diarrhea could result. Studies have suggested that the added minerals in buffered vitamin C can neutralize the acid and cause the supplement to break down slowly."

Even if you don’t have cancer, you can use this method to determine how much toxic stress is going on inside your body and how high doses of vitamin C could dramatically improve your health. Ok, so we all know that vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is good for you right? The body doesn’t produce it, so it has to come from food. You’ve probably also heard that a severe vitamin C deficiency leads to scurvy. Early symptoms of scurvy are malaise and lethargy. That’s basically a “general feeling of being unwell” along with tiredness or exhaustion. ( Does this sound like you? )"

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEOrthomolecular Medicine News Service, February 11, 2013What Really Causes Kidney Stones (And Why Vitamin C Does Not) (OMNS Feb 11, 2013) A recent widely-publicized study claimed that vitamin C supplements increased the risk of developing kidney stones by nearly a factor of two. [ 1] The study stated that the stones were most likely formed from calcium oxalate, which can be formed in the presence of vitamin C (ascorbate), but it did not analyze the kidney stones of participants. Instead, it relied on a different study of kidney stones where ascorbate was not tested. This type of poorly organized study does not help the medical profession or the public, but instead causes confusion. The study followed 23,355 Swedish men for a decade. They were divided into two groups, one that did not take any supplements (22,448), and another that took supplements of vitamin C (907). The average diet for each group was tabulated, but not in much detail. Then the participants who got kidney stones in each group were tabulated, and the group that took vitamin C appeared to have a greater risk of kidney stones. The extra risk of kidney stones from ascorbate presented in the study is very low, 147 per 100,000 person-years, or only 0.15% per year."

You will note in studying this website that many of the most potent cancer treatments contain at least one of these four items: 1) Cesium (e.g. cesium chloride), (very alkaline) 2) Baking Soda, Sodium Bicarbonate or Na HCO 3 (very alkaline) 3) Calcium (e.g. Coral Calcium) (very alkaline), 4) Vitamin CAs a general rule, when you are using more than one alternative cancer treatment, take them at least an hour apart, if possible."

Here are five reasons why you need to load up on this supplement daily.by Natasha Turner, ND Updated Jan 21, 2014 10Photo, Getty Images. While we usually associate vitamin C with its immune-boosting properties, the benefits of popping this vitamin daily extend well beyond cold and flu season. In fact, it probably isn’t given the credit it deserves, so here are five new reasons to keep it in your daily supplement arsenal. 1. Detox your bowels We absorb vitamin C in the upper part of the intestine. Unabsorbed vitamin C continues into the lower bowel and causes watery stools or diarrhea. By taking large doses of vitamin C we can induce loose stools or a “levage” which is ideal during a detox (although timing is essential if you decide to do this). This can be helpful for improving elimination as well as determining what your daily dose of vitamin C should be. Make sure to check with your doctor to see if this process is right for you."

"text": "\"What Can Muscle Milk Do For Me? As the name suggests, muscle milk is a supplement that is rich in the proteins necessary for ultimate muscle growth and fitness. Essentially having its beginnings in the composition of human mother's milk after much research muscle milk emerges as a much-improved version. There are many protein sources available besides muscle milk. Extensive research concerning muscle milk protein, however, indicates that the ingredients in muscle milk have vastly superior advantages for athletes. Muscle milk is capable of increasing muscle growth faster due to increased muscle synthesis. Because of this muscle milk gained importance among the body building fraternity as muscle milk protein aids with tissue growth and repair. An intake of muscle milk protein ensures that the body receives the building blocks it requires for producing amino acids. These acids from muscle milk are necessary for strong muscle tissue and enhanced natural body healing. This valuable effect of muscle milk protein means a decrease in the time spent recovering from muscle injuries and strains."

"text": "Basic Emacs Editor Commands What is Emacs? Emacs is another editor available in UNIX. Like vi , emacs is a screen editor. Unlike vi, emacs is not an insertion mode editor, meaning that any character typed in emacs is automatically inserted into the file, unless it includes a command prefix. Commands in emacs are either control characters (hold down the <Ctrl> key while typing another character) or are prefixed by one of a set of reserved characters: <Esc> or <Ctrl>-X. The <Esc> key can be typed by itself (because it really is a character) and then followed by another character; the <Ctrl> key must be held down while the next character is being typed. The conventions for describing these characters (since it takes too long to type out the whole thing) are ESC means <Esc> and C- means <Ctrl> . One other distinction between emacs and vi is that emacs allows you to edit several files at once. The window for emacs can be divided into several windows, each of which contains a view into a buffer. Each buffer typically corresponds to a different file. Many of the commands listed below are for reading files into new buffers and moving between buffers."

When titanium (III) citrate and methyl viologen were used as reductants, PCE-reductive dehalogenase (PCE-RDase) (51 k Da) dechlorinated PCE to trichloroethene (TCE) at a rate of 20 μmol/min/mg of protein. TCE-reductive dehalogenase (TCE-RDase) (61 k Da) dechlorinated TCE to ethene. TCE, cis -1,2-dichloroethene, and 1,1-dichloroethene were dechlorinated at similar rates, 8 to 12 μmol/min/mg of protein. Vinyl chloride and trans -1,2-dichloroethene were degraded at rates which were approximately 2 orders of magnitude lower. The light-reversible inhibition of TCE-RDase by iodopropane and the light-reversible inhibition of PCE-RDase by iodoethane suggest that both of these dehalogenases contain Co (I) corrinoid cofactors. Isolation and characterization of these novel bacterial enzymes provided further insight into the catalytic mechanisms of biological reductive dehalogenation. Perchloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethene (TCE) are federally regulated toxic chemicals which pose a risk to public health ( 12 ). Unfortunately, these widely used solvents are among the most common contaminants of groundwater ( 35 )."

"text": "The present invention relates to a composition containing solid, preferably powdered, ascorbic acid and a hydrophilic carrier, the ascorbic acid and carrier being packaged separately and being capable of being mixed together just before use. The mixture is also described. This composition can be used in the cosmetic and/or dermatological fields by topical application to the skin both of the body and of the face, including around the eyes, and to the scalp. The invention also relates to the use of the above composition and mixture for the cosmetic treatment of skin or for the preparation of an ointment for the dermatological treatment of the skin and/or mucous membranes, as well as to a process for the cosmetic treatment of the skin. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONEfforts have been made for a long time to formulate ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in the cosmetic and dermatological fields, in various galenic forms, because of its numerous beneficial properties. In particular, ascorbic acid stimulates the synthesis of connective tissue, in particular of collagen, enhances the defenses of skin tissue against damage by environmental agents such as ultraviolet radiation and pollution, compensates for any vitamin E deficiency of the skin, depigments the skin and has an anti-free radical function. These last two properties make it an excellent candidate as a cosmetic or dermatological active agent for combating and/or preventing skin ageing. Unfortunately, because of its chemical structure (alpha-ketolactone), ascorbic acid is very sensitive to certain environmental parameters such as light, oxygen, water (through its p H and through the presence of traces of metals). The rapid degradation of ascorbic acid formulations occurs in the presence of these conditions, which is counter to the desired results. In order to reduce and/or retard the degradation of ascorbic acid, several solutions have already been envisioned in the prior art."

"text": "\"What’s the Difference Between Natural and Synthetic Vitamins? Nobody really likes what I have to say on this subject. And, to be fair, the answer is an inherently awkward one. Most vitamin products, even those sold in health food stores or by distributors, contain synthetic vitamin powders. There are only a few manufacturers of vitamin powders, and they are almost always large pharmaceutical companies. Generally,a) Laboratory-made vitamins are far cheaper than whole food concentrates;b) Synthetic vitamins USUALLY work quite well,c) High potency can be achieved with a nice, small tablet size. One of the chief differences in “health food store” vs “drug store” brands is what is not in the tablet. For example, the natural brands leave out artificial chemical colors, which is a good thing to do. Just about all brands contain tablet fillers and excipients, needed to physically hold the pill together. Since these will vary, the only way to find out exactly who uses what is to write to the company and find out.http://www.doctoryourself.com/labels.html Some tableting ingredients are pretty standard, such as magnesium stearate or stearic acid, sodium citrate, dicalcium phosphate, cellulose and silica."

"text": "What is the Difference between Ascorbic Acid and Buffered Vitamin C? March 16, 2011 By Darrell Miller Vitamin C, Buffered or Not? Buffered vitamin C provides a form of ascorbic acid active inside the human body. Minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium are added to ascorbic acid formulated for sensitive stomach. It has been associated with higher absorption efficiency, especially when taken in large quantities, inasmuch as most buffered supplements are combined with organic compounds naturally occurring in plants called flavonoids. Offsets Gastric Hyperacidity Acid dyspepsia, or simply hyperacidity, is a condition in which the stomach produces and releases hydrochloric acid in amounts higher than normal, leading to a more acidic gastric environment. This is a problem to people suffering from Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, or more commonly referred to as acid reflux, and is a known risk factor for other gastric illnesses, such as peptic ulcer and even stomach cancer. Individuals who have a sensitive stomach are essentially experiencing symptoms of acid dyspepsia, and buffered vitamin C is specialized for them. Some people need higher doses of ascorbate supplements, for example those diagnosed with a deficiency in vitamin C and the disease it causes called scurvy. Buffered vitamin C provides an excellent ascorbic acid supplement in that the flavonoids it contains significantly increases absorption."

"text": "January 16, 2012Pasta e Fagioli A traditional peasant recipe that is a great, stick to your ribs dish, Pasta e fagioli or pasta fagioli, simply means “pasta and beans”, referring to the two main ingredients in the dish. This traditional Italian favorite started as a peasant dish due to being composed of very inexpensive ingredients and most often is one dish that would be prepared at home for family, and not guests. Today Pasta e Fagioli can be widely found even in restaurants, although it may be pronounced pasta fazool in the United States. Pasta fagioli is commonly made using cannellini beans or borlotti beans and some type of small pasta such as elbow macaroni or ditalini. The base is generally olive oil, garlic, minced onion, and spices, along with stewed tomato or tomato paste, and some broth or water, although some variations do not include tomatoes at all, and are made from only broth. Modern restaurant recipes may be vegetarian, or include an Italian meat such as prosciutto or pancetta as I have used in my version. If you want a vegetarian version of this dish, simply skip adding the pancetta, and use vegetable broth in place of chicken broth. I add onions, carrots, and celery to my recipe, although I keep them chopped small so that the beans and pasta remain the stars of this dish. This recipe also varies greatly based on the region or town in which it is prepared, as well as depending on available ingredients. The consistency of the dish can vary, as some renditions fall clearly in the soup category, usually because the tomato was left out, while others are much thicker and would be considered more of a pasta dish."

Cook mild and hot Italian sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until crumbly and no longer pink. Drain excess grease and set aside. Heat olive oil in the same pan over medium heat; stir in onion and garlic, and cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent. 2. Stir in tomatoes, and the crumbled sausage; season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes until sun-dried tomatoes have softened. 3. Before serving, stir in cream ( if desired) and garnish with tomatoes."

"text": "What is Fresco Painting?by · Published · Updated0SHARESShare Tweet The word ‘fresco’ is originally Italian and literally means ‘fresh’ and the art of fresco painting actually involves painting on walls which are fresh well plastered. No binding agents are used and the colours are mixed with water. These are then directly applied to the surface. Thus the colours sink well into the plastered surface and results in the creation of a colour which is sort of glowing. This effect is not achieved when painting on usual dry plaster. It is because of this very effect created that fresco paintings are directly done on walls rather than on paper and then glued to another surface. Fresco Painting in Mandawa Havelies, Rajasthan, India A Short History There is some dispute regarding which is the earliest form of fresco found. From what has been found till date, the earliest examples goes back to about 30,000 years. Some historians believe that the earliest known examples are from the island of Crete in Greece. Others opine that the earliest examples are found in Chauvet cave in France."

"text": "Barese Sausage and Munchies!February 10, 2011 by Marie Barese sausage is quite different from your typical Italian sausage which is normally made with fennel. Barese sausages are finger thin, sort of like the shape and size of a breakfast sausage. These sausages are similar to an area in southern Italy around Bari on the Adriatic coast. Lucky for me I only have to drive about 35 minutes to get to a wonderful Italian market that makes them fresh on a daily basis!The ingredients in Barese sausage vary but usually they consist of the meat being either pork or lamb or a mixture of both. Herbs, such as parsley or basil, some garlic, parmesan or romano cheese and some type of tomato product either paste, plum or sun-dried. I have a friend who was born in Bari and years ago he taught me his simple method for cooking them up on top of the stove. Place the sausage in a skillet with white wine, enough to almost cover them. With your burner on medium high keep turning them often until they reach an ugly gray color and the wine cooks out. I like to poke some holes on each sausage with a tooth pick so the wine really gets in and flavors them even more. After the wine pretty much dissipates, remove the sausage, drizzle in some olive oil and place them back into the pan and brown them up to a nice deep golden color, that’s it!"

If you haven’t had the pleasure of experiencing this unique orange, I highly recommend it. How good is it? Round these parts, blood orange juice is the norm instead of regular old orange juice. What are blood oranges? As the name suggests, blood oranges are red in color, sometimes in splotches on the outside but definitely on the inside. The concentration of the red inside depends on the particular type of orange and growing conditions. Squeezing them is when you truly understand where the “blood” reference comes from: the juice resembles the ruby red of a cranberry as opposed to the yellowish tone of orange juice. Where does the red color come from? Blood oranges are “bloody” from a pigment called anthocyanin, which is widely found in the plant kingdom and can appear red as in cherries and red cabbage to blue as in blueberries and cornflowers or even purple as in pansies and eggplants (aubergines)."

Bureaucracy Defined Buzz, buzz, buzz. Look at all the busy little bees, working hard to keep everything in the hive running smoothly and efficiently. They actually have much in common with the American government's bureaucracy. The word 'bureaucracy' literally means 'government with a small desk,' and it originated in France with reference to the little desks used by the king's officials as they went about the king's business. Today a bureaucracy is a large administrative organization that handles the day-to-day business of a government or society. Here in America, the government's bureaucracy operates on national, state, and local levels."

"text": "Bureaucracy The term bureaucracy refers to a system of administration that relies heavily on policies, procedures, and rules, as well as a specific hierarchical system. Bureaucratic systems are most common in large corporate environments, and in government agencies and social systems. The purpose of bureaucracy is to impose structure where there would surely be chaos in an unwieldy system. To explore this concept, consider the following bureaucracy definition. Definition of Bureaucracy Noun A government characterized by specialization, obedience to fixed rules, and adherence to a hierarchy of authority. A system of government or business that has many complicated rules, policies, and procedures. Origin1810-1820 French bureaucratie What is Bureaucracy Bureaucracy is the administration of the many divisions of government by non-elected officials. While it has been acknowledged that bureaucracy is a necessary, efficient way to operate a far-reaching government, the term has met with criticism in recent decades. Complaints about bureaucratic systems mainly refer to the system’s inflexibility, as workers within the system are held to strict rules and practices. It is ironic that a system meant to efficiently administer large agencies is marked by inefficiency, due to the complexity and rigidness imposed on the workers."

These groups perform special functions, but share numerous overlapping duties. They operate primarily at the national level, but many have subsidiary or satellite agencies at the state and local levels to alleviate the burdens of operation. Although the federal government contains many different agencies, the agencies fall under the direction of two primary leaders: Congress and the President."

The terms \"\"bureaucracy,\"\" \"\"bureaucratic,\"\" and \"\"bureaucrat\"\" are common. A cyberocracy could be a bureaucracy changed by computers. Like Marx's alienation surplus value, Weber views bureaucracy as alienating in that it is a set of structures which dominate people. Bureaucracy can be found in earlier times in the Roman army, though it is prominently visible in the large-scale administration of agencies of the modern state. The German state created by Bismarck, was a model bureaucracy in both its armed forces and civil administration. According to Weber the creation of the modern state of Germany had only been possible because of the development of a disciplined state bureaucracy and a bureaucratised standing army. Max Weber gave attention to bureaucracy and saw this form of social organization becoming dominant in modern society due to the commitment to the value of rationalization. Weber’s analysis of bureaucracy has made it seem as if bureaucracies are inherently limiting to human freedom. Weber praises bureaucracies for their efficiency and predictability, but he feared that people would become too controlled by them."

"text": "Chapter 13: The Bureaucracy I. A bureaucracy is a large, complex organization composed of appointed officials. Distinctiveness of the American Bureaucracy I. Three aspects of our constitutional system and political traditions give to the bureaucracy a distinctive character. A. Political authority over the bureaucracy is not in one set of hands but is shared among several institutions. Both the president and Congress exercise authority over the bureaucracy. B. Most of the agencies of the federal government share their functions with related agencies in state and local governments. Many agencies work with other organizations at other levels of the government. C. The institutions and traditions of American life have contributed to the growth of an “adversary culture,” in which the definition and expansion of personal rights, and the defense of rights and claims through lawsuits are given central importance. D. The US government regulates privately owned enterprises to a degree not found in many other countries. The Growth of the Bureaucracy I. In the first Congress, in 1789, James Madison introduced a bill to create a Department of State to assist the new secretary of state. People appointed to this department were to be nominated by the president and approved by the Senate, but could be removed by the president only."

C. on June 30, 2014. ( Associated Press) (CNSNews.com) – Reps. Joe Kennedy III (D-Mass.) and Bobby Scott (D-Va.) introduced the Do No Harm Act Wednesday, which would amend the 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) to specify that religious exceptions should not apply to “protections against discrimination or the promotion of equal opportunity” and “access to, information about, referrals for, provision of, or coverage for, any health care item or service.” The legislation is intended to “clarify that no one can seek religious exemption from laws guaranteeing fundamental civil and legal rights.” The bill emphasizes that RFRA should not be interpreted to “authorize an exemption from generally applicable law that imposes the religious views, habits, or practices of one party upon another” or authorize “an exemption from generally applicable law that imposes meaningful harm, including dignitary harm, on a third party.” Kennedy claimed in announcing the bill that “the Religious Freedom Restoration Act has become a vehicle for those seeking to impose their beliefs on others or claim that the tenants of their faith justify discrimination.” “ The Do No Harm Act will restore the balance between our right to religious freedom and our promise of equal protection under law,” he argued. RFRA currently says that \"\"government shall not substantially burden a person's exercise of religion even if the burden results from a rule of general applicability\"\" unless it is demonstrably “in furtherance of a compelling governmental interest” and is the “least restrictive means” of furthering that interest."

"text": "Bureaucracy Bureaucratization of government Problems of modern bureaucracy Political control of public officials The study of bureaucracy BIBLIOGRAPHYThis article deals with the historical development of bureaucracy as a mode of government. Some related aspects of governmental bureaucracies are discussed in Civilservice. Guides to more general and sociological topics in this area will be found under Administration and Organizations. The term “bureaucracy” is of recent origin. Initially referring to a cloth covering the desks of French government officials in the eighteenth century, the term “bureau” came to be linked with a suffix signifying rule of government (as in “aristocracy” or “democracy”), probably during the struggles against absolutism preceding the French Revolution. During the nineteenth century the pejorative use of the term spread to many European countries, where liberal critics of absolutist regimes typically employed it to decry the tortuous procedures, narrow outlook, and highhanded manner of autocratic government officials (Heinzen 1845). Since then this pejorative meaning has become general in the sense that any critic of complicated organizations that fail to allocate responsibility clearly, or any critic of rigid rules and routines that are applied with little consideration of the specific case, of blundering officials, of slow operation and buck-passing, of conflicting directives and duplication of effort, of empire building, and of concentration of control in the hands of a few will use this term regardless of party or political persuasion (Watson 1945). During the years following World War ii this common stereotype was given a new twist by the witty, mock-scientific formulations of Parkinson’s Law, which derided empire building, waste of resources, and inertia by implying that official staffs expand in inverse pro-portion to the work to be done (Parkinson 1957). This popular, pejorative usage must be distinguished from “bureaucracy” used in a technical sense. Although the distinction is beset with difficulties, social scientists have employed the term because it points to the special, modern variant of age-old problems of administration, just as terms like “ideology” and “class” point to modern aspects of intellectual life and social stratification."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Organizational theory consists of approaches to organizational analysis. Organizations are defined as social units of people that are structured and managed to meet a need, or to pursue collective goals. Theories of organizations include rational system perspective, division of labor, bureaucratic theory, and contingency theory. In a rational organization system, there are two significant parts: Specificity of Goals and Formalization. The division of labor is the specialization of individual labor roles, associated with increasing output and trade. Modernization theorist Frank Dobbin states \"\"modern institutions are transparently purposive and that we are in the midst an evolutionary progression towards more efficient forms\"\". Max Weber 's conception of bureaucracy is characterized by the presence of impersonal positions that are earned and not inherited, rule-governed decision-making, professionalism, chain of command, defined responsibility, and bounded authority. The contingency theory holds that an organization must try to maximize performance by minimizing the effects of varying environmental and internal constraints. Dwight Waldo noted in a review of field work in 1978: \"\"Organization theory is characterized by vogues, heterogeneity, claims and counterclaims\"\", [1] and even greater differentiation in theory and practice have developed since then. Organization theory certainly cannot be described as an orderly progression of ideas, or a unified body of knowledge in which each development builds carefully on and extends the one before it."

"text": "Civil Service Common features Civil service system patterns Major problem areas Approaches and trends in writing and research BIBLIOGRAPHYCivil service is a relatively new term used to describe an old governmental feature that is becoming increasingly important in modern political systems. The phrase was first used in British administration in India and was popularized by Sir Charles Trevelyan a little more than a century ago. When the principle of open competitive examination was introduced in Great Britain in 1854, the phrase “civil service” was also carried over and was applied to the officials serving the state in a professional capacity, except for those in the military and judicial services. Of course, equivalent bodies of officials have served states throughout history, long before the term “civil service” was applied to them. Civil service is not a precise concept. It is similar to, but not identical in meaning with, other terms, such as public service and public bureaucracy. Although it has the advantage of familiarity, there are several difficulties in its use. Perhaps the chief difficulty is the distinction built into the term between the civil and military segments of the public service. In some governments this dividing line is becoming blurred and the interrelationships between civil and military services are growing more intimate, especially in the newly independent nations. The definition does place emphasis on the professional character of the service as against work performed for the state on a sporadic, voluntary, or forced basis."

ADVERTISEMENTS: The term ‘bureaucracy’ has been widely used with invidious connotations directed at government and business. Bureaucracy is an administrative system designed to accomplish large-scale administrative tasks by systematically coordinating the work of many individuals. Weber has observed three types of power in organisations: traditional, charismatic and rational-legal or bureaucratic. He has emphasised that bureaucratic type of power is the ideal one. Features (Characteristics) Of Weber’s Bureaucracy: Weber has given a number of features of bureaucracy. Accordingly, following features suggest the characteristics of bureaucratic organisations.1. Administrative Class: Bureaucratic organisations generally have administrative class responsible for maintaining coordinative activities of the members. ADVERTISEMENTS: Main features of his class are as follows: (i) People are paid and are whole time employees, (ii) They receive salary and other perquisites normally based on their positions, (iii) Their tenure in the organisation is determined by the rules and regulations of the organisation, (iv) They do not have any proprietary interest in the organisation, (v) They are selected for the purpose of employment based on their competence.2. Hierarchy: The basic feature of bureaucratic organisation is that there is hierarchy of positions in the organisation."

"text": "\"Bureaucracy and Bureaucrats The basic characteristics that define the concept of bureaucracy are found in virtually all organizations, whether public or private, military or religious, for profit or nonprofit. Most organizations are bureaucracies, and most of their employees are bureaucrats. Why do bureaucracies exist and why are they needed? Bureaucracy is nothing more than a form of organization defined by certain attributes, including a division of labor, allocation of functions, allocation of responsibility, supervision, full-time employment, and worker careers within the organization. Bureaucracy literally means \"\"rule by desks,\"\" in other words, a government by clerks. The goals of a bureaucracy are efficiency and productivity, which are gained through specialization and repetition of tasks. Bureaucracies are created in government to carry out a broad range of tasks, to provide necessary services, and to act as experts in particular areas of policy. Despite the general belief that the federal bureaucracy has grown too large and unresponsive, the size of the federal bureaucracy has remained stable over the past 25 years, and has actually declined when compared to the size of the civilian workforce or the increase in federal spending. What roles do government bureaucrats perform? Bureaucrats communicate with each other, maintain paper for accountability, interpret the law, and implement the objectives of the organization."

These questions are very recurrent. And is that when ordering at the bar a glass of wine or beer is very important to know in advance what will help you more fattening. At first sight we could ensure that the most fattening drink is beer. It's the most logical and if not where does the term \"\"beer belly\"\"?. We all come to mind countless images in which burly British smile accompanied by her friend the pint and a sizable belly trying to break the shirt. It is true that beer has more grams of carbohydrates than wine, but and here is the \"\"quid\"\" of the question the wine has more alcohol in his composition. This means that the wine has more calories than beer. Specifically, for every 100 ml beer would 3 grams of carbohydrate and 3 grams of alcohol which means that this beverage provides from 40-45 kcal per 100 ml. The wine, however, is less carbohydrates in his composition but his rate is higheralcohol that ends up providing more calories than beer."

Interview: Divertida Devotchka Q: The Foxy Tann we know and love got her start hosting the Gay 90’s in 1997 at the Superior Lounge, which led to a 2-year stint as the “first and only female female impersonator to emcee at The Le Femme Show Lounge.” Can you also tell us about the production of Miss Biracial Upper Midwest 1984? A: Ah Miss Biracial Upper Midwest 1984! I love that show! Miss BUM is a stage play that reenacts how Foxy Tann got her start in Superior, WI by winning Miss BUM, which launched her on that road that ends all roads, the road to stardom. It was a show that was about the ridiculousness of stereotyping. Each major race was represented, Black, Asian, Native American, Latin and Celtic. Each contestant had to represent their race through “traditional’ ethnic wear and dance. Example – Missy Asia wore a sequined karate outfit as her ethnic wear, I was Miss Black and wore traditional mammy attire…it was hilarious…now it seems so tame and not edgy at all."

I smoke American made corn cob pipes exclusively and I smoke American-made tobacco. I don’t inhale. I don’t smoke around non-smokers and I’ve never forced a non-smoker to smoke. What crime have I committed? I pay more taxes than non-smokers, and while I support what I consider cottage or even artisan tobacconists they are under attack by new rules, regulations and taxes at every turn. As long as our federal government continues to spend like drunken sailors (with apologies to hard-working drunken sailors) I’ll sign whatever anti-tax petition that’s put before me; but I fear that those who are conspiring against pipe smokers were in this fight LONG before we even knew there was a fight. Stand up Americans and defend your freedom while you have any left to defend! We have our rights not because some pinhead in Washington says so, but we have them as free men in the greatest nation on God’s green earth!They say we get the government we deserve… I say we deserve better.

"text": "\"Overview Over the last century, automotive side mirrors have been mounted to the fenders, doors, A-pillars, and yes even on the fender mounted spare tires! As crazy as it sounds, during that whole time, there have really only been 3 different styles of side view mirrors.1. Manual Mirrors A manual car mirror is the oldest and simplest design of all. It's typically bolted onto the body or door of the car, and if it isn't aimed right, you need to physically stick your hand out the window and push on it to adjust it. A manual mirror won't have any fancy wires or joysticks, and it is almost always the most inexpensive and easiest side mirror to replace.2. Manual Remote Mirrors This style was sort of the first step in the mirror evolution, and became hot stuff in the early 1960s. In the simplest words, a manual remote mirror can be adjusted from inside the car with your windows up. It's not done with magic, and it isn't electricity either. These mirrors have a mechanical connection sticking through the body of the vehicle for you to adjust it with. The mechanical connection is usually in the form of a fun little joystick, just like on your favorite video game system in the 1980's."

"text": "Causes of Tingling and Numbness – Paresthesia Posted by Jan Modric Tweet What Does Tingling, Numbness and Paresthesia Mean? Paresthesia (Greek para- = abnormal, esthesia = feeling) is abnormal sensation on the skin that has no apparent physical cause ( 1 ). Paresthesia includes numbness and tingling, and can be temporary or permanent. Numbness is a decreased or lost sensation in the skin. Tingling is an unusual sensation in the skin. It is often described as feeling of pins and needles, tickling, pricking, creeping, skincrawling, ant crawling, and so on. In certain disorders, like restless leg syndrome, tingling, numbness, burning, itchiness and pain may appear simultaneously. Paresthesia can appear in any part of the body: in the trunk, limbs, fingers, toes, face or head. Paresthesia and Dermatomes Sensations are felt and interpreted by the brain. Sensibility of the trunk, limbs and the back of the head is mediated by the spinal nerves, arising from the spinal cord, and sensitivity of the face by Trigeminal nerve (5th cranial nerve), arising from the brainstem."

Symptoms may start as a tingling (paresthesia) and change to a numbness, or there may be a combination of decreased sensation (numbness) but with heightened sensations at certain times or with stimulation. Any type of tingling, burning, or numbness is usually a symptom related to a sensory nerve being damaged, diseased, or injured. Causes depend on the exact location of the paresthesia sensations, but typically include a physical nerve injury type condition (e.g. a nerve entrapment or some type of pressure being applied to a nerve directly or to the spinal attachment of that nerve), or a disease condition affecting the nerves (e.g. neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, and others). Having these sensory symptoms in multiple locations, or the recurrence of similar symptoms in different locations is a hallmark symptom of multiple sclerosis , so your doctor will likely ask about the past history of similar symptoms to assess the likelihood of multiple sclerosis as a diagnosis (see symptoms of multiple sclerosis ).

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

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Home & Garden Gardening Why do some garden cucumbers taste bitter? Flag Why do some garden cucumbers taste bitter? Answer by Ashish felix Confidence votes 150Most cucumber plants contain a bitter compound called cucurbitacin, which can be present in the fruit as well as the foliage. Bitterness in cucumbers tends to be more prominent when plants are under stress from low moisture, high temperatures or poor nutrition. For some cucumber eaters, the bitter taste can be accompanied by a digestive discomfort known as a burp. Some of the newer cultivars of cucumbers do not have the bitter compound and, thus, no burp. So, some seed companies called their bitter-free cukes \"\"burpless.\"\" The amount of bitterness in the cucumber depends on the severity of the heat and drought. In most cases, cutting off the stem-end and removing the skin of bitter cucumbers will remove much of the bitterness. Some fruits will be bitter all the way through and should be discarded."

"text": "Dana Hoff/Stockbyte/Getty Images You may think a cucumber is just a cucumber, right? But, in reality, there are actually close to 100 varieties of cucumbers grown in the world, most of which the average consumer does not find. Cucumbers are actually members of the gourd family and grow on creeping vines. Originally native to south Asia, they're now cultivated in most parts of the world. The most commonly found varieties at most markets are the English cucumbers, pickling cucumbers and the regular slicer cucumber we use most often in our dishes. English cucumbers, sometimes called seedless or hothouse cucumbers, are often longer and wrapped in plastic. While these varieties are similar in appearance, there are differences which make them unique in the way they are prepared and consumed. Read on to discover these differences, and decide which cucumber will be the better addition to your next meal. Slicing Cucumbers The skin is waxy and the tough dark green color is more uniform. The taste can be more bitter."

"text": "\"What Are Cucumbers Good For?0Disponible en Español Cucumbers: Why They're Beneficial Botanical name: Cucumis sativus The fourth most widely cultivated \"\"vegetable\"\" in the world, the cucumber, related to both the melon and squash families, is technically a fruit. With its mild, refreshing flavor that mixes so well with other garden offerings, cucumbers are actually 90% water, but still manage to provide many valuable health benefits. Like so many other plant-based foods, cucumbers originated in the Mediterranean, and were brought to the Americas by European explorers in the 1500s. There are dozens of varieties thriving in both cool and warm climates. While commercial cucumber growing operations in California and Florida keep most of the country in this refreshing green fruit between March and November, Mexico is the largest U. S. provider through the deepest winter months. China, however, is by far the most prolific supplier, exporting around two-thirds of the total cucumber production worldwide. Growing on a long, trailing vine, cucumbers come in two main categories: slicing cucumbers, which are generally larger and thick-skinned; and pickling cucumbers, which are smaller and thinner-skinned. Pickling usually involves slicing and soaking in brine (highly salted water) and vinegar to preserve and ferment the fruit. An alternative is the longer, thinner English or gourmet cucumber, also known as \"\"burpless,\"\" with seeds so small they're basically inconsequential. Seedless cucumber varieties are attained through a natural parthenogenesis process, which allows them to produce without pollenization."

"text": "\"Difference Between Cucumber Varieties? By Susan Westmoreland Aug 26, 2003I used to see only one kind of cucumber in the supermarket. Now I see Kirby, seedless, hothouse, and what I call regular. What's the difference? The cucumber you refer to as \"\"regular\"\" is the most common field-grown variety. Known as a slicing cucumber, it ranges in size from 6 to 9 inches, and its dark-green skin is usually waxed to prevent moisture loss. The English cucumber, which may be called seedless, European, burpless, or hothouse (which is where it is commercially grown), grows to between 1 and 2 feet in length. Slimmer and smooth-skinned, it is wrapped in plastic and can cost as much as $2 per cucumber. The pickling cucumber is small and thick with bumpy, light-green, unwaxed skin. The most popular variety, the Kirby, is used commercially for pickling; it is also enjoyed fresh because of its thin skin, crisp flesh, and small seeds."

The globe artichoke, a member of the composite family of flowers, is closely related to the thistle. If left to flower, the plants produce violet blossoms measuring seven inches across. The part we eat is from the immature flower bud. The edible portion of the \"\"globe\"\" is composed of the fleshy bases of the flower bracts (look like leaves) and the receptacle to which the bracts are attached, commonly referred to as the \"\"heart.\"\" Artichokes can be purchased all year long, but the best quality are available from March through May.

Slicing cucumbers are cultivated to be eaten fresh, while pickling cucumbers are intended for the brine jar. Slicing cucumbers are usually larger and thicker-skinned than pickling ones. In the United States, commonly planted varieties of slicing cucumber include Dasher, Conquistador, Slicemaster, Victory, Comet, Burpee Hybrid and Sprint, according to the World's Healthiest Foods website. Commonly planted varieties of pickling cucumber include Royal, Calypso, Pioneer, Bounty, Regal, Duke and Blitz. While most people think of cucumbers as vegetables, they are actually a fruit.

They’ve even turned some of us away from cukes entirely. Do you find you seem to buy the ones with the biggest seeds and have to scrape them out with a spoon? Well, you may be buying the wrong varieties. Not all cucumbers have those pesky hard seeds — many are bred to have underdeveloped seeds that are hardly noticeable, much like seedless watermelons. These cucumbers need no seeding or even peeling because their skins are so tender. Some varieties, like the English cucumber, are also bred to be burpless (just in case you wanted to know). The next time you take a trip to the farmer’s market or supermarket, look for these varieties (in the slideshow below). You’ll be doing yourself — and others — a favor.

Best picked when small and the seeds are still soft. 3 to 4 inches (8 to 10 cm) for pickling types and 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 cm) for slicers Comments: There are many modern hybrids that produce well, but most seed catalogs will highlight three traits: burpless, gynoecious, and nonbitter. Burpless varieties (also called Lebanese or oriental cucumbers) don't form the chemical compounds that make people burp. Gynoecious produce all, or mostly female flowers, which greatly increases yield per plant, they also tend to produce earlier (than nongynoecious ones), and set fruit all at once. Gynoecious cucumbers require another cucumber cultivar to pollinate them, but the seeds of the pollinator are always included with the packets of gynoecous cucumbers, so you don't have to worry about it. Nonbitter cultivars don't form the bitter compounds that can develop in the fruits when the plants have become drought-stressed from high heat. Cucumbers can also be divided into slicing and pickling (also called gherkins or cornichons), but young fruits of slicers can be pickled and large fruits of picklers can be eaten fresh, so it really isn't that critical to pay attention to. Planting Site: Cucumbers prefer full sun, but they will tolerate full morning sun and less than three hours of afternoon shade. Cucumber Planting & Growing Guidelines: Cucumbers don't like cold soil, and they don't tolerate frost, so wait for warm spring days and soil temperatures above 60° F (16° C) to plant, or warm the soil with black plastic for a week or two before planting."

A tropical vegetable, cucumbers thrive when the weather is hot and water is plentiful. Growing cucumbers is for warmer weather: Plants are so frost-tender that they shouldn’t be set into the garden until soil temperatures are reliably in the 70-degree range (no less than 2 weeks after the last frost date). Cucumber plants grow in two forms: vining and bush. Vines scramble along the ground or clamber up trellises, while bush types, such as Burpless Bush Hybrid, form a more compact plant. Generally, vining cucumbers yield more fruit throughout the growing season. Bush selections are especially suited to containers and small gardens. You can increase the season’s yield of bush varieties by planting several crops in succession 2 weeks apart."

"text": "Issue #113 • September/October, 2008The ancient art of brining pickles produces a product similar to the expensive “deli-style” pickles in the supermarket. The process is not difficult; however, older recipes call for “pecks” and “bushels” of cucumbers that today’s home gardeners don’t have space or time to grow. For smaller amounts of produce, try the following recipe. This method of brining or “fermenting” may also be used with other vegetables—cauliflower, snap beans, peppers, and brussels sprouts, as well as others. The quart method works especially well with okra because it goes limp quickly and has to be picked almost daily. It is best to put the date on the jar with a small piece of tape if several jars are being brined within days of one another. The cucumbers: Use firm 4 to 6-inch pickling cucumbers picked within the last three days. The Texas Cooperative Extension Agency recommends you do not use “burpless” cucumbers because they may soften. Good results have been obtained, however, from Japanese cucumbers such as “Suyo Long” if they are cut into 4-inch chunks with the ends removed. Do not use supermarket cucumbers; they have been waxed to keep them fresh, and the brine will not penetrate the wax."

Regardless of the type of cucumber you grow, you sow all cucumber seeds at a depth of 1 inch, but depending whether you are growing them outdoors or in containers, the seeds require different spacing and care. Planting Cucumbers Outdoors When planting cucumber seeds directly outdoors, wait until the soil warms in the spring. Seeds generally germinate in about 10 days when it's around 70 degrees Fahrenheit.

Garden Cucumbers You'd likely expect a cucumber that’s fresh off the vine to be as sweet as they come, but that’s not always the case. Some cucumbers develop a naturally occurring bitterness called cucurbitacin. This bitter compound of the stem may spread to the fruit due to insufficient watering, a need for fertilizer, cramped planting or extreme temperatures. But cucurbitacin doesn’t render the whole cucumber inedible. Cut off only as much of the skin and the stem’s end as needed and rinse the fruit to help rid it of any bitterness."

The operating system, application programs and data in current use are kept in RAM, specifically in the chip-on-card main memory, for quick access by the computer's processor. RAM is slower than a processor's own smaller-instruction level-1, level-2 or level-3 cache memory but much faster to read from and write to than any of the other kinds of storage in a computer, including the hard disk, CD-ROM and even fast long term storage devices like SATA or PCI express -based flash storage. However, the data in RAM generally stays there only as long as your computer is running; as such, it is termed volatile memory. Unlike the aforementioned storage devices, when you turn the computer off, RAM loses its data. When you turn your computer on again, your operating system and other files are once again loaded into RAM, usually from your hard disk. With some forms of sleep mode, the computer keeps RAM powered for a more instant-on wakeup. RAM can be compared to a person's short-term memory and the hard disk to the long-term memory. The short-term memory focuses on work at hand, but can only keep so many facts in view at one time. If short-term memory fills up, the least-used information is generally forgotten."

Our memory is there, and it’s usually managed by something called the Northbridge You might also hear this referred to as the Memory Controller Hub. This Memory Controller Hub manages this communication process between the CPU and the memory itself. On our most modern CPU, we’ve even taken the Northbridge and the memory controller aspects of that. And we’ve integrated it directly into the CPU, so that we can then go directly from the CPU to the memory itself, thereby making that process even faster. There’s a lot of different kinds of memory that we might use inside of our computer. Some that is on the CPU itself, inside of that chip, is used to store information."

"text": "A data bus is a computer subsystem that allows for the transferring of data from one component to another on a motherboard or system board, or between two computers. This can include transferring data to and from the memory, or from the central processing unit ( CPU) to other components. Each one is designed to handle so many bits of data at a time. The amount of data a data bus can handle is called bandwidth. A typical data bus is 32-bits wide. This means that up to 32 bits of data can travel through a data bus every second. Newer computers are making data buses that can handle 64-bit and even 96-bit data paths. At the same time they are making data buses to handle more bits, they are also making devices that can handle those higher bitrates. Bus Controllers In the early days of the personal computer, manufacturers created motherboards with data buses that were directly connected to the computer's memory and peripherals. These electrical buses were designed to run parallel to each other and had multiple connections."

They are not intended to be coherent. -- KJC]A modern computer system -- whether it is a PC or a large supercomputer -- is actually a collection of special purpose computers all working together. In a typical desktop system, for example, you might find a small computer, i.e. micro-processor, which controls the video, another which controls the disk drive, and a third which controls an internal modem. Then there is a micro-processor that controls all the other micro-processors. This is the \"\"heart and soul\"\" of the hardware -- the Central Processing Unit or CPU.

"text": "What Is a PCI Device? By John Landers Share A PCI device is any piece of computer hardware that plugs directly into a PCI slot on a computer's motherboard. PCI, which stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect, was introduced to personal computers by the Intel Corporation in 1993. The technology to operate PCI is integrated into the motherboard of nearly every personal computer manufactured since 1995. A PCI connection on a motherboard can be identified as a long strip of raised copper connectors encased in plastic. This long strip of connectors is usually called a bus. Video of the Day Close-up of PCI slots on a computer motherboardcredit: Wiktor D/i Stock/Getty Images Significance Basically, every personal computer has two primary buses, which are linked to the central processing unit. The system bus, which is also the fastest, connects main memory, or RAM, to the CPU. The PCI bus is not as fast as the system bus. Its primary purpose is to facilitate communication of hardware devices of all types such as audio, video, network or graphics with the microprocessor."

Fioricet overdoses generally result in toxic amounts of both acetaminophen and butalbital being consumed at once, requiring both overdoses to be treated at once. Fioricet overdose by anyone and/or any consumption by persons to whom it is not prescribed (particularly children) is always a medical emergency and medical attention must be sought immediately if an overdose or consumption by other persons is suspected. Fioricet overdose is often fatal and symptoms may not present for hours following consumption; once initial overdose symptoms present they can progress rapidly and there may not be time to reach appropriate medical care after this point."

Butalbital is the generic name given to certain medications that combine butalbital with acetaminophen or aspirin and caffeine to treat chronic pain and migraine headaches. When used for short-term treatment of pain, withdrawal symptoms are often minor and short lived, but barbiturates can be habit forming; with long-term use, patients may build a tolerance to the drug, as well as a psychological and physical dependence. This means that more butalbital is needed to have the same effect, and the withdrawal symptoms become more severe as use continues. Did You Know? Butalbital is a barbiturate that is FDA approved and is often prescribed by physicians, but the active ingredients are addictive. Butalbital is a highly addictive barbiturate, both physically and psychologically. The necessity of butalbital addiction treatment is determined by medical professionals, based on the presence of a number warning signs. These red flags may appear in several forms, but butalbital addiction symptoms typically will include at least one of the following: Lying to doctors about pain or headache severity to convince them to prescribe a higher dose of butalbital Mixing butalbital with alcohol or other drugs to achieve a better “high”Taking more butalbital than prescribed or using the drug more frequently than is recommended by your physician While the above signs are key indicators that butalbital addiction treatment may be needed, they are often visible only to the user. There are other symptoms caused by the psychological addiction to butalbital that are often visible to those around the user as well."

Stopping the use of butalbital-containing medications abruptly can result in a variety of withdrawal symptoms that can occur within eight to 36 hours of the last dose of medication and last up to seven days. These symptoms can include elevated body temperature and blood pressure, increased heart and respiratory rates, delirium, vomiting, tremors, ringing in the ears, breathing difficulties, drowsiness, raised consciousness, nervousness, disorientation and severe headaches. Although rare, more serious withdrawal symptoms and signs include abnormal vital signs and seizures."

They may occur only once in a while or more often and may be described as chronic. Fioricet may temporarily relieve some symptoms but chronic use is not recommended due to potential dependence on the butalbital ingredient. Learn more about Fioricet and Drug Dependence here. Fioricet is not used for migraine prevention. Fioricet is only used as a non-FDA approved medication for symptom treatment (pain relief and relaxation) once a migraine headache has begun. Fioricet does not relieve migraine symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and/or noise. The sedative effects of Fioricet may make you sleepy and it may be difficult for you to perform normal daily activities. Other migraine specific medications such as triptans (for example, sumatriptan, zolmitriptan, naratriptan, rizatriptan, almotriptan) and dihydroergotamine treat the underlying cause of migraines and can sometimes reverse and relieve the migraine process.

"text": "Print Overview Rebound headaches (medication-overuse headaches) are caused by regular, long-term use of medication to treat headaches, such as migraine. Pain relievers offer relief for occasional headaches. But if you take them more than a couple of days a week, they may trigger rebound headaches. It appears that any medication taken for pain relief can cause rebound headaches, but only if you already have a headache disorder. Pain relievers taken regularly for another condition, such as arthritis, have not been shown to cause rebound headaches in people who never had a headache disorder. Rebound headaches usually stop when you stop taking the pain medication. It's tough in the short term, but your doctor can help you beat rebound headaches for long-term relief. Symptoms Signs and symptoms of rebound headaches may differ according to the type of original headache being treated and the medication used. Rebound headaches tend to: Occur every day or nearly every day, often waking you in the early morning Improve with pain relief medication but then return as your medication wears off Other signs and symptoms may include: Nausea Listlessness Restlessness and difficulty concentrating Memory problems Irritability When to see a doctor Occasional headaches are common. But it's important to take your headaches seriously."

Related Editorial Patient Information Handout The term “chronic daily headache” (CDH) describes a variety of headache types, of which chronic migraine is the most common. Daily headaches often are disabling and may be challenging to diagnose and treat. Medication overuse, or drug rebound headache, is the most treatable cause of refractory daily headache. A pathologic underlying cause should be considered in patients with recent-onset daily headache, a change from a previous headache pattern, or associated neurologic or systemic symptoms. Treatment of CDH focuses on reduction of headache triggers and use of preventive medication, most commonly anti-depressants, antiepileptic drugs, and beta blockers. Medication overuse must be treated with discontinuation of symptomatic medicines, a transitional therapy, and long-term prophylaxis. Anxiety and depression are common in patients with CDH and should be identified and treated. Although the condition is challenging, appropriate treatment of patients with CDH can bring about significant improvement in the patient’s quality-of-life."

"text": "Brain & Nervous System Headaches & Migraines Treatment Butalbital for Headaches and Dependency Risk Rebound Headache and Withdrawal From Butalbital-Containing Medications By Teri Robert Updated February 22, 2018Share Pin Email Print JGI/Jamie Grill/Getty Images Butalbital-containing medications, like Fiorinal (butalbital/aspirin/caffeine) and Fioricet (butalbital/acetaminophen/caffeine), are commonly over-utilized in the treatment of headaches. Let's explore the use of butalbital-containing medications for your headaches, and how a person can safely withdraw from them under a doctor's care. What Is Butalbital? Butalbital is a short-acting barbiturate, often used in combination with Tylenol (acetaminophen), aspirin, and/or caffeine to treat headaches. As a barbiturate, it depresses or slows down the central nervous system, causing a number of effects, depending on the dose. At lower doses, it relaxes muscles, providing headache relief for some. At higher doses, barbiturates are used as sedatives and even for anesthesia. Why Is Butalbital Not an Ideal Headache Medication? A person who takes butalbital for their headaches is at risk of developing chronic headaches and/or medication overuse headache, also known as a rebound headache. With a rebound headache, a person feels an increase in their head pain intensity after abruptly stopping their medication."

Various entities and beings are depictions of events and emotions at a particular time in history. Elephants have been of particular significance in these depictions. Did You Know? Elephants hold a symbolic meaning in astrology, wherein, 'elephant dreams' are considered to have specific meanings. The actions and behavior of these elephants in the dreams are of particular importance in interpreting what they stand for. The flapping of its ears, dancing of its trunk, the prominence of its gigantic spine and royal tusks, the depth of its benevolent eyes while it strolls around with charming calm and composure, at once surrounds you with a feeling of safeguard, kindness, and respect. Such is the exuberance of this genial form, that has been on this planet for more than 50 million years. Elephants have long been associated with humans, their emotions, and their stories.

Sponsored Link A Look into the Meaning of the Celtic Butterfly This article on the Celtic butterfly expands on the Celtic Animal Zodiac Signs article. Going beyond zodiac personality characteristics, it provides information on the Celtic butterfly's meaning, mythology and tattoo symbolism. Celtic Butterfly Meaning To the ancient Celts, butterflies meant transmutation and metamorphosis. Just as a butterfly's life begins as a grub, then progresses to a caterpillar, then pupae, and then to the chrysalis before being revealed as a butterfly, so too is a person's life a period of change and evolution. Because the caterpillar must pass through the tomb-like chrysalis to become the butterfly, the chrysalis is a symbol of death and resurrection. When a butterfly appeared, the Celts saw it as a reminder to look at the important issues you are facing, and to see what stage you are at with them. What is the final outcome you want and what do you need to do to achieve it? When Christianity began to spread, wearing a butterfly brooch or badge was a symbol of one's faith, and a sign of respect for one's ancestors and gods."

This, plus their journey through life is so reflective of the spiritual path, that when seen many people wonder: Are butterflies angels? Are they messengers from the realms of spirit? The Metaphor of the Butterfly The cycle of the butterfly in and of itself holds spiritual teaching and insight for us. Birthed from an egg the butterfly lives it's early life as a caterpillar. It then retreats within the pupa or chrysalis where it undergoes a transformation, and finally when it leaves the chrysalis it is reborn as a beautiful winged butterfly. The magnificent life of the butterfly closely mirrors the process of spiritual transformation as we each have the possibility to be reborn through going within."

"text": "\"Moth Meanings in the Realms of Animal Symbolism A friend of mine has been getting consistent visitations from the moth, and she asked me what I thought. This page is a result of a few meditations with the moth, and symbolic observations. Moths have similar animal symbolism as butterflies, but have a few distinguishing characteristics that set it far apart from its winged relative. Namely, the moth is a nocturnal creature, whereas the butterfly is diurnal. It's important to note the symbolism of nocturnal creatures because night-time proclivities have specific philosophical m eanings. Nocturnal Animal Symbolism Includes: Dreams Shadows Otherworldliness Secret knowledge P sychic awareness We gather these symbolic attributes because night creatures conduct their life-sustaining activities in complete darkness. As humans, we may translate this as symbolic of living our lives by intuitive feeling rather than physical sensory perception. Philosophically speaking, night creatures do not tumble in the dark, and neither do humans. We use our dreams, our awareness, and our deeper, inner knowing to navigate through the darkest hours of our lives. Faith is another tool we use to move through shadowy times of uncertainty, and the moth also shares this aspect."

History is rife with examples of financial booms and busts but, through trial and error, economic systems have evolved along the way. But looking at the early part of the 21st century, governments not only regulate economies, but also use various tools to mitigate the natural ups and downs of economic cycles. In the U. S., the Federal Reserve (Fed) exists to maintain a stable and growing economy through price stability and full employment - its two legislated mandates. Historically, the Fed has done this by manipulating short-term interest rates, engaging in open market operations (OMO) and adjusting reserve requirements. The Fed has also developed new tools to fight economic crisis, which emerged during the subprime crisis of 2007. What are these tools and how to they help mitigate recession? In this article, we'll take a look at the Fed's arsenal. Manipulating Interest Rates The first tool used by the Fed, as well as central banks around the world, is the manipulation of short-term interest rates. Put simply, this practice involves raising/lowering interest rates to slow/spur economic activity and control inflation."

Share Flipboard Email Print Medical Art Inc/ E+/ Getty Imagesby Mike Moffatt Updated March 31, 2018Students first learning economics often have trouble understanding what contractionary monetary policy and expansionary monetary policy are and why they have the effects they do. Generally speaking contractionary monetary policies and expansionary monetary policies involve changing the level of the money supply in a country. Expansionary monetary policy is simply a policy which expands (increases) the supply of money, whereas contractionary monetary policy contracts (decreases) the supply of a country's currency. Expansionary Monetary Policy In the United States, when the Federal Open Market Committee wishes to increase the money supply, it can do a combination of three things: Purchase securities on the open market, known as Open Market Operations Lower the Federal Discount Rate Lower Reserve Requirements These all directly impact the interest rate. When the Fed buys securities on the open market, it causes the price of those securities to rise. In my article on the Dividend Tax Cut, we saw that bond prices and interest rates are inversely related. The Federal Discount Rate is an interest rate, so lowering it is essentially lowering interest rates. If the Fed instead decides to lower reserve requirements, this will cause banks to have an increase in the amount of money they can invest. This causes the price of investments such as bonds to rise, so interest rates must fall."

What is 'Inflation'Inflation is the rate at which the general level of prices for goods and services is rising and, consequently, the purchasing power of currency is falling. Central banks attempt to limit inflation, and avoid deflation, in order to keep the economy running smoothly. Next Up Headline Inflation Hyperinflation Inflation Hedge Base Effect BREAKING DOWN 'Inflation'As a result of inflation, the purchasing power of a unit of currency falls. For example, if the inflation rate is 2%, then a pack of gum that costs $1 in a given year will cost $1.02 the next year. As goods and services require more money to purchase, the implicit value of that money falls. The Federal Reserve uses core inflation data, which excludes volatile industries such as food and energy prices. External factors can influence prices on these types of goods, which does not necessarily reflect the overall rate of inflation. Removing these industries from inflation data paints a much more accurate picture of the state of inflation. The Fed's monetary policy goals include moderate long-term interest rates, price stability and maximum employment, and each of these goals is intended to promote a stable financial environment. The Federal Reserve clearly communicates long-term inflation goals in order to keep a steady long-term rate of inflation, which in turn maintains price stability."

Or isn't money what you use when you demand other goods? Here is where we have to remember that money is a stock not a flow, and that income and wealth are not money. Demand for money is a question of how much of your wealth you wish to hold in the form of money at any point in time. ( Supply of money is also a stock concept. ) Your demand for money is how much of your wealth you wish to hold as money at any moment in time. It is thus a stock demand. Your wealth is a stock, and you must decide how to allocate that stock of wealth between different kinds of assets -- for example a house, income-earning securities, a checking account, and cash. Why would you hold any of your wealth as money -- as cash or checking deposits?"

It’s used to stimulate the economy by making it easier for businesses to borrow money. The bank buys securities from its member banks to add liquidity to capital markets. This has the same effect as increasing the money supply . In return, it the central bank issues credit to the banks' reserves to buy the securities. Where do central banks get the credit to purchase these assets? They simply create it out of thin air. Only central banks have this unique power.

In modern economies, the central bank is usually responsible for the formulation of monetary policy and the regulation of member banks. The central bank of the United States is the Federal Reserve System, or “the Fed,” which Congress established with the 1913 Federal Reserve Act. Next Up Bank National Bank Bank Rate Reserve Assets BREAKING DOWN 'Central Bank'Central banks are inherently non-market-based or even anticompetitive institutions. Many central banks, including the Fed, are not government agencies, and so are often touted as being politically independent. However, even if a central bank is not legally owned by the government, its privileges are established and protected by law. The critical feature of a central bank — distinguishing it from other banks — is it legal monopoly status, which gives it the privilege to issue bank notes and cash. Privately owned commercial banks are only permitted to issue demand liabilities, such as checking deposits. History of Central Banks The first prototypes for modern central banks were the Bank of England and the Swedish Riksbank, which date back to the 17th century. The Bank of England was the first to acknowledge the role of lender of last resort."

As with everything else relating to economics there are many different factors that lead to the depreciation of a country’s currency. Central bank - Interest rate effects An decrease in a foreign country’s central bank interest rates, creates a lower demand for the domestic currency; devaluing its value. Why? Foreigners can earn higher profits by investing their money into foreign government bonds with higher interest rates. In order to invest the money they must purchase the other country’s currency by selling their own, increasing the demand of the foreign currency, and elevating its value. If the interest rate is low as in the example above, investors will choose to invest their money into different countries, dropping the demand for a certain currency and devaluing it through the use of supply and demand.

S. bond funds or individual bonds. Fueled by falling interest rates, they both delivered consistent income and a counterbalance to equity market volatility. No wonder the market grew faster than the domestic economy and tripled in size to just under $37 trillion. But with higher rates on the horizon and the Federal Reserve slowly reducing the pace of its quantitative easing measures, investors are about to get schooled in just how different these securities can be. For financial advisors who have experienced only a bond market rally in their careers, this promises to be an eye-opener. Kord.com | Age fotostock | Getty Images All about bonds\"\"There is a huge difference between bond funds and individual bonds,\"\" said Scott Colyer, CEO and chief investment officer for Advisors Asset Management. \"\" Some suggest that they're not even the same asset class, because bond funds react so differently to market forces. Now more than ever, with interest rates heading up, investors need to understand the difference,\"\" he said. Here's the 411 on how bond funds and individual bonds differ, and why it matters to you. Read More Keep bonds but stay alert, say advisors Individual bonds, like Treasurys, municipals and corporate bonds, are sold with a finite maturity: the date on which you, the investor, get your principal back — if the debt issuer doesn't default — and the interest payments you've been receiving stop."

"text": "\"For the accountancy use of the term, see Capital account (financial accounting). In macroeconomics and international finance, the capital account (also known as the financial account) is one of two primary components of the balance of payments, the other being the current account. Whereas the current account reflects a nation's net income, the capital account reflects net change in ownership of national assets. A surplus in the capital account means money is flowing into the country, but unlike a surplus in the current account, the inbound flows effectively represent borrowings or sales of assets rather than payment for work. A deficit in the capital account means money is flowing out of the country, and it suggests the nation is increasing its ownership of foreign assets. The term \"\"capital account\"\" is used with a narrower meaning by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and affiliated sources. The IMF splits what the rest of the world calls the capital account into two top-level divisions: financial account and capital account, with by far the bulk of the transactions being recorded in its financial account.

Answered Oct 26, 2010 · Author has 141 answers and 365.5k answer views This is another way of saying, “ quantitative easing .” The easiest way to understand this economic policy is by looking at an illustrative version of the balance sheet of the Federal Reserve and the balance sheet of a commercial bank (e.g. Citibank, Bank of America).. Balance Sheet of the Federal Reserve: The Fed’s assets are comprised of a variety of financial instruments including government bonds, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, etc. On the liabilities side, the Fed holds money in circulation and reserves (money that commercial banks are required to set aside with the Central Bank). By “printing money” ex nihilo (literally out of nothing) money supply increases and the Fed’s liabilities rise. However, the Fed now has the funds to go to the open market and purchase more financial securities from commercial banks, thereby increasing its assets (so that total assets still equals total liabilities). This is the mechanism by which the Fed “expands its balance sheet.”"

"text": "\"Economic Terms Monetary Policy What Is Quantitative Easing? Definition and Explanation How Central Banks Create Massive Amounts of Money Share Flip Pin Email•••By Kimberly Amadeo Updated June 15, 2017Definition: Quantitative easing is a massive expansion of the open market operations of a central bank. It’s used to stimulate the economy by making it easier for businesses to borrow money. The bank buys securities from its member banks to add liquidity to capital markets. This has the same effect as increasing the money supply . In return, it the central bank issues credit to the banks' reserves to buy the securities. Where do central banks get the credit to purchase these assets? They simply create it out of thin air. Only central banks have this unique power. This is what people are referring to when they talk about the Federal Reserve “ printing money .”The purpose of this type of expansionary monetary policy is to lower interest rates and spur economic growth."

"text": "\"A: Formulating a country's monetary policy is extremely important when it comes to promoting sustainable economic growth. More specifically, monetary policy focuses on how a country determines the size and rate of growth of its money supply in order to control inflation within the country. In the United States, a committee within the Federal Reserve is responsible for implementing monetary policy. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is comprised of the Board of Governors and five reserve-bank presidents, and it meets eight times throughout the year to set key interest rates and to determine whether to increase or decrease the money supply within the economy. The FOMC buys and sells government securities to set the money supply. The is process is called open market operations. The government securities that are used in open market operations are Treasury bills, bonds and notes. If the FOMC wants to increase the money supply in the economy it will buy securities. Conversely, if the FOMC wants to decrease the money supply, it will sell securities. To increase the money supply in the market, the FOMC will purchase securities from banks."

As everyone else has mentioned, the NFL only allows teams to have one bye week. But teams in college football can have more than one. To me, they are certainly an advantage because they give the players time to rest up. But I think it should be regulated like with the NFL. There are too many universities (like USC!!!) that take more bye weeks than they should & more than most other teams do (namely SEC teams), even when they already play much weaker schedules than the SEC.

In most leagues, NFL players are assigned to teams via a draft. Usually, each player can only be on one team at a time and there are limits to the total number of players per team. The object of the game is to outscore your fantasy opponent (other owners) on a weekly basis, so that at the end of the fantasy season (depending on the league) you have the most points or the most wins (in a head to head league). This dictionary of fantasy football terms should help define the lingo that we use. Please let us know if we're missing the definition of a phrase, acronymn, or abbreviation that you're unfamiliar with.3rd year WR Rule There is a common belief among fantasy football players that most NFL wide receivers do not \"\"break out\"\" until their third year in the league.

Six teams from each of the league's two conferences qualify for the playoffs based on regular season records, and a tie-breaking procedure exists in the case of equal records. The tournament ends with the Super Bowl, the league's championship game, which matches the two conference champions. NFL postseason history can be traced to the first NFL Championship Game in 1933, though in the early years, qualification for the game was based solely on regular season records. From 1933 to 1966, the NFL postseason generally only consisted of the NFL Championship Game, pitting the league's two division winners (pending any one-game playoff matches that needed to be held to break ties in the division standings). The NFL playoffs then expanded in 1967, when four teams qualified for the tournament. When the league merged with the American Football League (AFL) in 1970, the playoffs expanded to eight teams. The playoffs were expanded to 10 teams in 1978 and 12 teams since 1990. The NFL is the only one out of the four major professional sports leagues in the United States to use a single-elimination tournament in all four rounds of its playoffs; Major League Baseball (MLB) (not including their wild-card postseason round), the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the National Hockey League (NHL) all use a \"\"best-of\"\" series format instead.

The NFL is one of the four major professional sports leagues in North America, and the highest professional level of American football in the world. [ 3] The NFL's 17-week regular season runs from early September to late December, with each team playing 16 games and having one bye week. Following the conclusion of the regular season, six teams from each conference (four division winners and two wild card teams) advance to the playoffs, a single-elimination tournament culminating in the Super Bowl, which is usually held in the first Sunday in February, and is played between the champions of the NFC and AFC. The NFL was formed in 1920 as the American Professional Football Association (APFA) before renaming itself the National Football League for the 1922 season. The NFL agreed to merge with the American Football League (AFL) in 1966, and the first Super Bowl was held at the end of that season; the merger was completed in 1970."

"text": "Arts, Music, and Recreation ›Sports Learn the Basics of Fantasy Football Different Types of Leagues, Scoring, Trades and Playoffs Share Flipboard Email Print Bernhard Lang/Photographer's Choice/Getty Imagesby James Alder Updated October 13, 2017Fantasy football is a statistics-based game in which players compete against each other by drafting and managing players from NFL teams. Participants draft their own team before the start of the football season and compete with the fantasy teams built by others. Fantasy football is generally a season-long competition, although week-long contests have gained popularity. Individual game winners are determined by points accumulated by NFL players based on their real-life performance in a game on the same day. History Fantasy football can trace its origins to the late Wilfred Winkenbach, who was an Oakland-area businessman and a partner in the Oakland Raiders. During the 1962 NFL season, Wikenbach, along with Raiders Public Relations Director Bill Tunnel and Tribune reporter Scotty Stirling developed a system that would develop into modern fantasy football. The inaugural fantasy football draft took place in 1963. Leagues A fantasy league is usually comprised of eight, 10, 12, 14 or 16 fantasy teams, each drafted and operated by a different participant. Each participant, also known as an owner, takes turns selecting players until all predetermined roster slots are filled. Team owners are responsible for choosing a starting lineup for each game, signing replacement players and making trades if they choose to do so."

An ideal bye week would be as close to Week 9 as possible to split the season in half. But this year there were obviously some different circumstances with the team returning from a victory across the pond, so I suppose now is as good a time as any for a Vikings week off.

"text": "\"Size matters: the benefit of having big balls Andrew Griffiths talks to Allan Pacey, Britain's first Professor of Andrology, about the effect of testicle size on reproduction and why he's concerned about young men consuming protein powder Men with big testicles produce more sperm Photo: Stephen Goodwin / Alamy By Andrew Griffiths8:21AM GMT 13 Mar 2015When I first meet Professor Allan Pacey, I can't help but think back to the days when it was common for high-powered businessmen to stare blankly at dangling balls on their desk. Before the smartphone offered its seemingly infinite excuses for procrastination, workers in need of numbing their minds would frequently turn to a model of Newton's Cradle. The small toy ostensibly demonstrated the transfer of energy through a row of aligned spheres, the balls clicking back and forth with reassuring symmetry. More importantly for office ants in the late 20th Century, Newton's Cradle offered an almost hypnotic release from the stresses and strains of the working world.' ' Share In his office above the Jessop Fertility Clinic in Sheffield, Prof Pacey has his own version of Newton's Cradle. He shows me a series of wooden replica balls that are threaded onto a loop of string. The balls increase in size, from something that resembles a pea to a grand round shape that is reminiscent of an overgrown walnut. Prof Pacey clicks them through his fingers, talking animatedly about the balls that these balls represent, which is the growth of the testicle throughout a man’s reproductive life. The pea-sized ball, he says, shows the very small testicle of a young boy. Healthy adult men will have bigger balls of course, but most will stop growing after puberty before they reach the size of that big swinging walnut."

This 2017 fantasy football draft strategy guide is part of our fantasy football help series.1. Understand the Value of Quarterbacks in your League. Quarterbacks typically dominate the total points leaderboard in most formats, but their values depend on several things including your scoring system, the number of teams in your league, the number of starting quarterbacks (including quarterback-eligible flex positions) and the required number of starting position players (RB, WR). Scoring System Whether quarterbacks get 3, 4 or 6 points per passing touchdown, whether and how much they get docked for interceptions and how many points they get per passing yard all matter. Your league's scoring for passing yards and TDs also affects the value of quarterbacks who run – the less credit given for passing stats, the more the running quarterbacks stand out relative to their peers. Point-per-reception (PPR) leagues add more relative value to position players and remove value from all quarterbacks. League Size There are 32 teams in the NFL, and typically 15-20 of them have quarterbacks you'd be willing to use, though probably fewer on any given week when you take into account bye weeks, weather conditions and matchups. In a 12-team league that starts just one-QB, you can almost always find quality quarterbacking late in your draft, or on the waiver wire. Accordingly, in most formats of that sort, you should wait until the middle to late rounds to draft one unless an elite one falls significantly below ADP."

"title": "http://www.linfo.org/bzip2.html\nThe bzip2 Command",
"text": "The bzip2 command is used for compressing and decompressing files. Data compression, also referred to as just compression, is the process of encoding data using fewer bits. Data decompression, or just decompression, is the process of restoring compressed data back into a form in which it is again useful.bzip2 features a high rate of compression together with reasonably fast speed. Most files can be compressed to a smaller file size than is possible with the more traditional gzip and zip programs. Moreover, like those programs, the compression is lossless, meaning that no data is lost during compression and thus the original files can be exactly regenerated. The only disadvantage of bzip2 is that it is somewhat slower than gzip and zip. This performance has been made possible through the use of the Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT). First published by Michael Burrows and David Wheeler in 1994, BWT is not by itself a data compression algorithm; rather, it converts blocks of data into a format that is extremely well suited for compression. In addition, it is reversible, which means that the original data can be easily regenerated.bzip2's syntax isbzip2 [option (s)] file_name (s)bzip2 is commonly used without any options. Any number of files can be compressed simultaneously by merely listing their names as arguments (i.e., inputs)."

It incorporates the Burrows-Wheeler compression algorithm as well as Run-Length Encoding for high levels of compression. It is often used for Linux software package distributions. BZIP2 performance is asymmetric, as decompression is relatively fast.

"text": "Minion Download Minion here Minion is a relatively new constraint solver which is fast and scales well as problem size increases. Minion is a general-purpose constraint solver, with an expressive input language based on the common constraint modelling device of matrix models. Focussing on matrix models supports a lean, highly-optimised implementation. This contrasts with other constraint toolkits, which, in order to provide ever more modelling and solving options, have become progressively more complex at the cost of both performance and usability. Minion is a black box from the user point of view, deliberately providing few options. This, combined with its raw speed, makes Minion a substantial step towards Puget’s `Model and Run’ constraint solving paradigm. If you wish to cite Minion in an academic paper, the best reference at the minute is our paper at ECAI 06: details are on the references page. We have no preference on the typography of the word Minion. Minion is Open Source software, licensed under GNU General Public License Version 2. The project is hosted on Bitbucket."

"text": "\"NGS file formats There are lots of file formats related to NGS analyses. The most common ones are: Sequence file formats The different sequence related formats include different information about the sequence. The most common file formats in the NGS world are: fastq and sff. SFFThe SFF (Standard Flowgram Format) files are the 454 equivalent to the ABI chromatogram files. They hold information about:the flowgram,the called sequence,the qualities,and the recommended quality and adaptor clipping. These recommended clippings are given by the 454 sequencer. The Roche software takes into account the quality and the adaptor sequence to recommend a clipping for each sequence. Like the ABI files, these are binary files that should be opened with specialized programs. There are several tools to extract the sequences and to convert them to a more usable format. Roche provides one executable able to do it with the 454 machine."

How to change the program associated with a file extension How malware writers use extensions to trick you into running a virus Common File Extensions Further Reading What are file extensions A file extension, or file name extension, is the letters immediately shown after the last period in a file name. For example, the file extension.txt has an extension of .txt. This extension allows the operating system to know what type of file it is and what program to run when you double-click on it. There are no particular rules regarding how an extension should be formatted other than it must begin with a period and have at least one character after it. For the most part, file extensions consist of three characters, which are typically letters or digits, that textually represent the type of file it is. Some examples of file extensions include .txt, .mp3, .jpg, and .gz, which represent text files, mp3 files, jpeg image files, and files compressed with the gzip program. As you can see, the actual extension name gives clues as to the type of file it is. When trying to determine a file's extension it is important to remember that the extension is simply the last period in a file and the characters that follow it."

"text": "Overview This guide will feature three main parts to get you from start to finish. You will create your modpack, host it somewhere online, and then you will plug it into the Technic Platform. About Minecraft has been around for a few years now and a lot of systems have grown up around the game. There are many different ways to make modpacks and each one has its own benefits. Some are really good for a single player experience. Some offer creative minds a great way to publish their work to a large audience. We find Technic to be an amazing tool that provides these capabilities to anyone for free. Not only can you make a modpack that takes all of the hard work out of the equation for all of the other people who might want to play with you, it also makes updating a far simpler process than it ever was before. You have access to thousands of creative minds, or just the one that you need. Technic is the platform we recommend for hosting a custom modpack for your server needs."

It can also be run with the -w flag, which causes it to save the packet data to a file for later analysis, and/or with the -r flag, which causes it to read from a saved packet file rather than to read packets from a network interface. It can also be run with the -V flag, which causes it to read a list of saved packet files. In all cases, only packets that match expression will be processed by tcpdump . Tcpdump will, if not run with the -c flag, continue capturing packets until it is interrupted by a SIGINT signal (generated, for example, by typing your interrupt character, typically control-C) or a SIGTERM signal (typically generated with the kill (1) command); if run with the -c flag, it will capture packets until it is interrupted by a SIGINT or SIGTERM signal or the specified number of packets have been processed. When tcpdump finishes capturing packets, it will report counts of:packets ``captured'' (this is the number of packets that tcpdump has received and processed);packets ``received by filter'' (the meaning of this depends on the OS on which you're running tcpdump , and possibly on the way the OS was configured - if a filter was specified on the command line, on some OSes it counts packets regardless of whether they were matched by the filter expression and, even if they were matched by the filter expression, regardless of whether tcpdump has read and processed them yet, on other OSes it counts only packets that were matched by the filter expression regardless of whether tcpdump has read and processed them yet, and on other OSes it counts only packets that were matched by the filter expression and were processed by tcpdump );packets ``dropped by kernel'' (this is the number of packets that were dropped, due to a lack of buffer space, by the packet capture mechanism in the OS on which tcpdump is running, if the OS reports that information to applications; if not, it will be reported as 0). On platforms that support the SIGINFO signal, such as most BSDs (including Mac OS X) and Digital/Tru64 UNIX, it will report those counts when it receives a SIGINFO signal (generated, for example, by typing your ``status'' character, typically control-T, although on some platforms, such as Mac OS X, the ``status'' character is not set by default, so you must set it with stty (1) in order to use it) and will continue capturing packets. On platforms that do not support the SIGINFO signal, the same can be achieved by using the SIGUSR1 signal. Reading packets from a network interface may require that you have special privileges; see the pcap (3PCAP) man page for details. Reading a saved packet file doesn't require special privileges."

[ 1]HTTP data is compressed before it is sent from the server: compliant browsers will announce what methods are supported to the server before downloading the correct format; browsers that do not support compliant compression method will download uncompressed data. The most common compression schemes include gzip and Deflate; however, a full list of available schemes is maintained by the IANA. [ 2] Additionally, third parties develop new methods and include them in their products, such as the Google Shared Dictionary Compression for HTTP (SDCH) scheme implemented in the Google Chrome browser and used on Google servers. There are two different ways compression can be done in HTTP. At a lower level, a Transfer-Encoding header field may indicate the payload of a HTTP message is compressed. At a higher level, a Content-Encoding header field may indicate that a resource being transferred, cached, or otherwise referenced is compressed. Compression using Content-Encoding is more widely supported than Transfer-Encoding, and some browsers do not advertise support for Transfer-Encoding compression to avoid triggering bugs in servers.

How compression works Compression is performed by a program that uses a formula or algorithm to determine how to shrink the size of the data. For instance, an algorithm may represent a string of bits -- or 0s and 1s -- with a smaller string of 0s and 1s by using a dictionary for the conversion between them, or the formula may insert a reference or pointer to a string of 0s and 1s that the program has already seen. Text compression can be as simple as removing all unneeded characters, inserting a single repeat character to indicate a string of repeated characters and substituting a smaller bit string for a frequently occurring bit string. Data compression can reduce a text file to 50% or a significantly higher percentage of its original size. For data transmission, compression can be performed on the data content or on the entire transmission unit, including header data."

On Unix and Linux archiving and compression are normally done by two separate utilities. TAR files are the most popular form of archive used on a Unix system. TAR actually stands for tape archive, and is the name of the type of file, and also the name of a utility which can be used to open these files. The format was originally designed for backup purposes using tapes, however it is quite often used for downloads and application packages. It enables you to put a number of files together into one single file, which makes it much easier to either archive the files, or distribute them."

A 7Z file is a bit like a folder on your computer, except that it really acts like a file. Both a folder and a 7Z file can store one or more files, and even other folders. However, unlike folders, 7Z files are just single files with the .7Z extension that serve as a compressed archive of the data. You'll most likely only see 7Z files when you download files from the internet that are bundled together, like computer software programs, picture albums, collections of documents... basically anything that might be downloaded best in a smaller, compressed form. Some 7Z files are broken up into smaller chunks to make it easier to send or store them. They then end up with a different file extension, like .7Z.001. How to Open a 7Z File7Z files can be opened with a growing number of compression/decompression programs, but the free 7-Zip tool, created by the makers of the 7Z format, is probably your best on Windows, Linux, or mac OS.

The definition in the pattern is C2L = Purl through back loop of 2nd stitch on left-hand needle (behind first stitch), then knit first stitch, slipping both stitches off needle together. Follow 1 answer Answers Best Answer: You are cabling over 2 stitches by crossing the 1st stitch in front of the 2nd stitch. You typed above what to do. It is a bit fiddly that way. You could use a cable needle. Put the first stitch onto a cable needle and place at the front of your work, purl the next stitch then knit the stitch on the cable needle.

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Hobbies & Collectibles Arts and Crafts Crocheting and Knitting What is melange yarn? Flag What is melange yarn? Answer by Kirsten07734 Confidence votes 6.0KMelange yarn is dyed before spinning. The yarn is produced from color printed tops or slivers. The color bands are short enough that each fiber has multiple colors. This results in a heathered effect after spinning. Think of the individual hairs of a tabby cat. Individual hairs are banded so they contain both black and grey on the same hair. When the hair is brushed off the resulting effect is a heathered grey. You can dye something with a similar appearance by choosing a yarn of blended cellulose and protein fibers, such as Trekking's Pro Natura, which is a blend of wool and bamboo."

Since my local fabric store has a very limited knit fabric section, I buy most of my knits online. The only problem is that when you can’t feel a knit fabric before you buy it, it can be hard to know what you’re getting, and it’s super disappointing to order fabric for a project and realize when it arrives that it just won’t work. To help ensure you get what you want when buying knit fabric, I’m going to explain the main types of knit and tell you what you can expect from each of them, as well as what clothing items I think they’re best suited to. And there’s a knit fabric giveaway at the end of the post!Girl Charlee is where I order most of my knits – they have a great selection and prices I haven’t seen anywhere else. They provided some fabric for me to review as well as providing the giveaway you can enter at the end of the post. If you fall in love with any of the fabrics you see in this post, click on over to Girl Charlee to order!Cotton jersey knit Cotton jersey is probably the most common type of knit – it’s very soft and fluid and works well for a variety of garments, although I like it best for t-shirts. The most important thing to pay attention to with jersey is the weight. Most online stores will list the weight, and it can vary from extremely lightweight (5 oz) to heavy (12 oz). Many jerseys are on the lighter end of the spectrum and I find that anything lighter than 7.5-8oz is generally see-through and too lightweight for me to be comfortable with (I do have a muffin top, though, so keep that in mind)."

"text": "\"© Sarah E. White, licensed to About.com, Inc. Roving yarn is a thick, bulky yarn that is not twisted or plied like many types of yarn. It is a fun style to create quick, bulky, and admittedly heavy projects and gives the knitted piece a rather rustic look. Yet, the term roving has a slightly different meaning for spinners than it does for knitters. Since the two crafts are related, it is important to understand each definition. Roving for Spinners In the spinning world, roving refers to a continuous sheet of fiber that's produced by a carding machine. The individual fibers are typically more or less parallel to each other after being combed or carded, but they haven't yet been spun. The term is most commonly heard in the phrase \"\"wool roving.\"\" However, roving can be made out of any kind of fiber or a mix of fiber and other elements the spinner desires in their finished yarn. Interesting Fact: In some countries, the word wool is used to mean any kind of yarn, no matter the fiber content. Roving can also be referred to as sliver (though it's pronounced sly-ver) or slubbing."

I’ll always swap a facing for a binding when I can. Having grown up sewing almost entirely with wovens, it wasn’t until I really got into knits a few years back that I discovered the many binding options out there when working with these special fabrics. Now I use knit bindings all the time. In honor of Moneta Month, I wanted to show you several methods you could use to substitute bound edges on your Moneta. Straight out of the envelope, Moneta is finished with either a lining for the sleeveless version (we have a video to show you how ), or a simple hemmed finish. Both of these are great finishes that work well with the design, but binding gives you a few more options. You might prefer the look of binding, you might find it helps if your fabric is a little saggy, or you might want to use it to add a little contrasting color to your edges. In this article, I will detail 4 different ways you can use strips of knit fabric to finish edges on knit garments, including 1 band method and 3 different binding methods."

I find the most daunting part of this the fabric selection and will no doubt run up a few items in totally inappropriate fabrics before I learn. One quick question now - are jersey and interlock the same? Is one just an American term? And is it basically t-shirt fabric or are all interlocks not created equal and there is more to consider? Am I right in thinking it does not fray? If they are two different things, do both not fray? Thanks in advance.

My best friend and I just had knitting materials, a bottle of wine, and gripes about life. We started out making nothing more adventurous than rectangles that might someday turn into scarves or blankets. And we had no clue if we were doing anything “wrong. ”Eventually, we joined with some other friends to form a knitting club and I branched out into more complicated patterns that called for increases. The first time I got to a pattern that called for a “knit through back loop,” I was hopelessly confused. Didn’t a knit always go through the back loop? This is when I learned that I was a Combined knitter and my stitch slants were all “wrong. ”Combined knitting gets its name because it’s a combination of Eastern and Western knitting. The fundamental difference between Western and Eastern knitting is how the stitches are oriented on the needle after being worked."

This differs from knitter to knitter, from crocheter to crocheter, and from vendor to vendor. For most people, a good yarn is affordable. Yarn that is too expensive is always bad yarn; it is also damp yarn because people who can't afford it drool on it. In truth, the type of project determines the type of yarn. Ragg yarn, a thick yarn made from one ply of shoddy and two plies of wool, makes a great warm sock but a terrible lace tablecloth.

Elizabeth Bagwell explains where they come from and how to handle them. Love this post? Pin this image!We’re not talking about tangles here – although those are annoying too – but knots where the yarn has been broken and tied back together. They can be really irritating but are, unfortunately, an inevitable part of knitting. The only real way to avoid them entirely is switch to only using your own hand spun yarn – at least that way you’ll know where the joins are!Where do knots in yarn come from? Knots in new balls of wool come from workers joining new threads or repairing breaks during the spinning process. In a multi-ply yarn (one made up of several threads) the knot may be in a single ply or across the whole yarn. Why can’t manufacturers make yarn without knots?"

It’s my favorite kind of pattern — simply a chart with some notes. But the fact that it’s a garment (one size), and that the Japanese do things a bit differently, makes it just challenging enough to be interesting. Panelist Meri Tanaka and I had an enlightening conversation about why Japanese patterns are the way they are, what that has meant for knitting in Japan, and how to interpret the assorted unfamiliar markings on this one. I learned a lot and am sure you will, too!By the way, there are already quite a few sweaters appearing on the #fringeandfriendskal2015 hashtag on Instagram. Take a look — and keep ’em coming!. . . Karen: First, can I ask you: The Japanese seem especially smitten with Cowichan-style sweaters, which hail from Canada — specifically the Vancouver area. Is it similar or related to the fascination with American sportswear (which I think you do better than we do), or is there something in particular that makes the Cowichan style so appealing in Japan?

Click the button below to download and print your FREE copy now! Get My FREE Guide»The two most important things to know about choosing sewing machine needles are the type and the size. You should select the type of needle based on the textile construction (i.e. knit vs. woven), and the needle size is determined by the thickness of the thread and the weight of the fabric you will be using for your project. Image via Schmetz Needles It helps to understand the different parts of a home sewing machine needle. The shank is the part of the needle that fits into your sewing machine, with the flat side to the back. The blade is what determines the needle size. ( For example, a size 75 needle has a blade that is .75 mm in diameter. )"

Yarn is made from many different fibers -- animal, plant and vegetable. Animal fibers include wool, mohair, angora, silk, cashmere, llama, alpaca and qiviut (musk ox) and are made of mostly protein. Cotton, linen and ramie are vegetable fibers. Synthetic (man-made) fibers include acrylic, nylon, polyester, metallics and microfibers. Each fiber has its own qualities, and they are often blended to take advantage of the best properties of each. Q. What are plies? A. Years ago, yarn was referred to by the number of strands (plies) twisted together. This wasn't a problem at the time, because crocheters and knitters understood that a two-ply yarn would be much thinner than a four-ply yarn."

Knitting patterns will tell you what kind of yarn to buy for that knitting project. But there are other reasons as well. For instance you may want to substitute the yarn that is called for in a pattern, or you may want certain types of yarn like wool, acrylic or cotton. You may also want a certain thickness. All this information is wrapped neatly around your little ball of yarn. Yarn labels will give you information like:fiber content, wool or cotton for instancewhat size knitting needles to useyarn weight (light, medium, bulky)yarn lengthlaundry carecolor and dye lot number Note: Each company has their own label so the information may not be in the same place.

"text": "\"Types of Knit Fabric March 23, 2014 by Melissa Mora 8 Comments Tweet I happen to be a knitter as well as a sewist, so part of what I’m going to talk about is related to how the stitches are formed, because that helps explain the differences in the fabric. And by the way, if you want to see knit fabrics in motion, you should check out the video I’ve got in this post. Knit fabrics are made of a combination of knit and purl stitches. The basic difference between those is whether the yarn is carried from stitch to stitch on the right or wrong side of the fabric. For knit stitches the yarn is carried on the back side. With purl stitches the yarn is carried on the front side. In the picture below, you can see the horizontal yarn carried on the wrong side of the fabric. This fabric is formed by knit stitches on the right side and purl stitches on the wrong side. MY LATEST VIDEOSThis method of knitting the right side and purling the wrong side is how jersey knit is formed. The picture above is a sweater knit, but if you look really closely, you can see the same stitch pattern in the jersey knit below."

"text": "\"» Home » Conditions Disabilities » Back Spine » Disk Problems »C6 C7 Disc Herniated By Dr. Ron Daulton Jr. | Disk Problems | Rating: A C6 C7 disc that is herniated can be one of the most painful and debilitating conditions a person could ever suffer with. This article will discuss what a C6 C7 herniated disc is, how it occurs, and 3 steps you can use for relief. The spinal discs are a special type of ligament that not only hold the vertebrae of the spine together, but also act as cushions and shock-absorbers between each bone of the spine. They are composed of 2 parts - a firm outer covering (called the annulus), and a jelly center (called the nucleus). I often refer to them as \"\"jelly doughnuts\"\" because of this structure. When a disc herniates, the \"\"jelly\"\" is essentially being pushed out of the doughnut. What's interesting about the discs of the spine is that they are designed to not feel pain (think about it - if they're shock absorbers, wouldn't it be a bad idea if they were designed to feel pain? You'd feel pain every time you moved if this were the case!). So, why is a herniated disc so painful and problematic? Well, the area of the disc that usually herniates is actually right by the nerves of the spine, which control everything in the body."

"text": "\"How to Relieve Arm Pain Caused by a Pinched Nerveby ERICA JACQUES Aug. 14, 2017Cervical radiculopathy, the medical term for a pinched nerve in the neck, can cause sharp pain and tingling in the shoulders, arms, hands and fingers. The specific symptoms depend on which of the 8 nerves in the neck area is involved. Sometimes an injury causes the pinched nerve, but many people over 50 develop the problem as the gel-filled discs that cushion the spaces between the bones of the neck, called cervical vertebrae, become damaged over time. Location of Signs and Symptoms Most cases of cervical disc herniation can be diagnosed in the doctor's office, although sometimes magnetic resonance imaging -- MRI -- is needed, according to Dr. Mark Greenberg, author of \"\"The Neurology Handbook, 7th ed.\"\" ( Ref. 2, p. 461) In 69 percent of cases, the seventh cervical nerve -- C7 -- is compressed, affecting the triceps muscle at the back of the upper arm, the forearm, the second and third fingers, and all of the fingertips. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Dr. Greenberg notes that 19 percent of herniated cervical discs compress C6, the sixth cervical nerve, affecting the biceps muscle, the forearm, and the thumb. In 10 percent of the cases, compression of the C8 nerve affects the hand, and in 2 percent of cases, pressure on C5 affects the deltoid muscle of the arm, as well as the shoulder. Pain Typically, the first symptom of a herniated cervical disc is pain on 1 side of the neck. Often, the person first notices the pain upon waking in the morning, with no history of an injury. ("

Well because we start at the top of the atlas and all the nerves are in between the vertebrae so the 8th pair is in between C7 and T1. Note the difference between roots and rami (ramus is singular). The rootlets extend out of the spinal cord medially and combine to form roots. The roots combine to form the spinal nerve and then they split apart again and are now called rami (ramus for singular) . The dorsal root is posterior to the ventral (front) root. The dorsal rami innervate the deep muscles of the back for motor control, such as the erector spinae and also a horizontal strip of skin for sensory input. The ventral rami in the thoracic region are known as the intercostal nerves . They run deep to the ribs and innervate the intercostal muscles and provide sensory input for the overlying horizontal strips of skin there as well as the abdominal wall muscles (motor) and skin (sensory). The innervation of the back, ribs, and abdominal area is shown here: Nerve Plexuses A nerve plexus is a network of nerves that seem to be tangled that mostly serve the limbs."

In many species, though not in mammals, the cervical vertebrae bear ribs.

"text": "Symptoms of and Treatment for Cervical Disc Herniation One of the most common neck conditions treated by physical therapists and other spine specialists is a cervical disc herniation. Initial signs and symptoms of a cervical disc herniation could begin at any age but is most commonly seen in the age range of 30-50. A cervical disc herniation is often caused by a traumatic injury, but if the disc has already begun to degenerate through age or wear and tear, an action as simple as a violent sneeze could cause it. The onset of the symptoms is usually immediate following the injury. What Are the Symptoms of Cervical Disc Herniation? Not all cervical disc herniations will cause symptoms. In the majority of cases, symptoms of cervical disc herniation will only show if the disc material presses on or irritates a cervical nerve. Arm pain will radiate along the nerve pathway and down the arm and into the fingertips. Along with pain, the patient may feel numbness and a tingling sensation with possible muscle weakness if the condition is left untreated for too long. Cervical disc herniations occur mainly at either the C5 – C6 level or the C6 – C7 level of the spine."

This intervertebral level lies at the base of the neck and is an area of significant disc degeneration in most people by the age of 30. C6/C7 herniations are some of the most common diagnostic scapegoats for upper back, neck and arm symptoms, but can actually be responsible for causing pain, tingling, numbness or weakness in some unfortunate patients. This commentary will detail disc prolapse conditions at C6/C7. We will explore why they take place and how they may enact painful symptomatic expressions through nerve or spinal cord compression processes. Herniated Disc C6-C7 Defined C6/C7 is the last intervertebral disc fully contained within the cervical spine. C6/C7 bears the brunt of the wear and tear from neck movement and athletic strain. The head is a large and heavy object on a rather thin pole of vertebral bones and even thinner spinal discs. As the head moves about voluntarily, and involuntarily due to accidents or trauma, the forces which act upon C6/C7 can be extreme. Degenerative disc disease at this level is normal and expected and not generally the source of any severe or lasting pain or neurological symptoms."

Recently I was given a data set like this (shown below) and asked to find the position of lookup value in the list. The only glitch is that, instead of values, the lookup table contained lower and upper boundaries of the values. See the below illustration to understand what I mean. In simple words, we have to find the range that has the lookup value. Now, the problem is similar to between formula trick we discussed a few days back, yet very different. We all know that,VLOOKUP formula looks up a value in a table and returns the corresponding value in next column MATCH formula looks up a value and tells the position of it in a list But neither seem to solve this problem. So I naturally turned to a cup of home brewed coffee (remember, I no longer work in a office, so I cant rush to espresso machine) and stared long and hard out of the window (remember, I no longer go to office, that means I can sit in front of a window and work).

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Health Conditions and Diseases Back Neck and Spine Your cervical spine MRI showed a bulge in the C6-7 disk What does mean? Flag Your cervical spine MRI showed a bulge in the C6-7 disk What does mean? Answer by TSD -RAVEN- Confidence votes 21.8KThe human spine is separated into several sections - Cervical means the neck vertebrae. The C6-7 disk is between the C6 and C7 (Cervical) vertebrae. Depending on the severity of the problem (whether or not the disk is just bulging or has in fact ruptured through the disk membrane (herniated), the problem can be corrected either with facet injections or other non-invasive therapy. However, if the problem is severe enough, it will begin to affect one of your arms (usually the left) to the point where paralysis may set in if it is not corrected. Staying clear of anything that can potentially aggravate this cannot be overstated. If you further damage the disk to the point where it cannot be dealt with by steroidal injection, NSAID's and bedrest, surgery is the only other option. While the procedure has gotten a lot easier since I had mine done in '96 (my surgery was a fusion of the C5/6/7 vertebrae - those disks had collapsed), it is still major surgery, and you can expect at least 3-5 months to recover, more if they require a bone graft from the pelvic area (never opt for cadaver bone as it has been proven it can transmit the AIDS virus). Do whatever therapy your doctor tells you - it is not something to be taken lightly, and if the disk is in fact herniated, there will always be a weak spot in the disk membrane."

Symptoms include muscle weakness, numbness, pain and a tingling sensation that radiates along the shoulders and into the neck or spine. While pinched nerves may occur anywhere in the body, they most commonly affect the neck, shoulder and lower back. A pinched nerve can cause debilitating pain. It can seemingly come from out of no where, waking you up from a night's sleep, or it can be the result of an accident or sports injury. In many cases, a pinched nerve results in severe pain and disability in the shoulder and upper arm. After treating the pain with moist heat, consult your physician. Exercise therapy is one of the first courses of treatment. What is a pinched nerve? A pinched nerve is a term that is quite common to hear, but most of us don’t really know what it means."

What Cervical Radiculopathy Feels Like in the Hand Eight nerve roots exit the cervical spine on each side and feed nerve pathways down the shoulders, arms, and hands. These nerve roots are labeled according to the vertebral segment, C1 though C8."

"text": "Spinal Cord Injury Levels & Classification Wise Young, Ph. D., M. D. W. M. Keck Center for Collaborative Neuroscience Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJPeople with spinal cord injury are often told that they have an injury at a given spinal cord level. They are often told that the injury is “complete” or “incomplete”. They sometimes be told that they have a bony fracture or other involvement of one or more spinal vertebral levels. They may also be told that they are classified according to the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) Classification, as a ASIA A, B, C, D, or E. What is the meaning of the different spinal cord injury levels, the definition of complete and incomplete injury, and the different classification of spinal cord injury? In the early 1990’s, there was no single definition of level, completeness of injury, or classification. Doctors frequently had different definitions of spinal cord injury levels and complete and incomplete injuries. In this article, I will try to explain the currently accepted definitions of spinal cord injury levels and classification. Figure 1. Spinal cord and vertebral levels."

This can result in pain ( radicular pain ), weakness, numbness, or difficulty controlling specific muscles. [ 1]In a radiculopathy, the problem occurs at or near the root of the nerve, shortly after its exit from the spinal cord. However, the pain or other symptoms often radiate to the part of the body served by that nerve. For example, a nerve root impingement in the neck can produce pain and weakness in the forearm. Likewise, an impingement in the lower back or lumbar - sacral spine can be manifested with symptoms in the foot. The radicular pain that results from a radiculopathy should not be confused with referred pain, which is different both in mechanism and clinical features.

"text": "Home » Spine Articles » Neck Surgery Articles » Neck Surgery at the C6–C7 Level Neck surgery for C6-C7 nerve compression If you have been diagnosed with a herniated disc or another degenerative spine condition in the C6–C7 vertebrae of your neck, you are most likely seeking treatment options that will reduce your pain and symptoms. The cervical spine (neck) is particularly susceptible to developing degenerative spine conditions because the vertebrae are responsible for not only supporting the weight of the head but also stabilizing the neck during movement. Because of the continual wear that occurs with repetitive movements, the discs in the cervical spine are prone to gradual deterioration. If a disc between the C6 and C7 vertebrae becomes compressed and begins to degenerate, the neck may experience some instability. This alone does not cause pain or symptoms, but they will develop if the damaged disc impacts a local nerve root in the spinal canal. Symptoms of C6–C7 nerve compression At each level of the cervical spine, nerve roots branch off the spinal cord in order to send and receive sensory and motor messages with the brain. When a degenerative disc disease moves a damaged disc into the spinal canal, these nerve roots can become irritated, or pinched. When this occurs at the C6–C7 level near the base of the neck, the following symptoms can occur: Localized pain in the location of the nerve impingement Weakness in the triceps muscle along the back of one or both arms Weakness in the finger extensor muscles Pain in the triceps, radiating down the back of the arm, the wrists and into the middle finger Numbness in the triceps, radiating down into the middle finger Tingling in the triceps, radiating down into the middle finger When neck surgery at the C6–C7 level becomes an option Should these symptoms remain unbearable after several weeks or months of conservative treatment, you may be recommended to undergo spine surgery to treat your condition. Although traditional open spine surgery can be used to treat disc damage, it is a highly invasive operation that requires months of recuperation. However, there is an alternative."

"text": "Cervical Spine Anatomy (Neck)Vertebrae and Cervical Spinal Nerves Written by Stewart G. Eidelson, MDEmail Print The cervical spine (sometimes abbreviated as c-spine in the medical world) begins at the base of the skull. Seven vertebrae make up the cervical spine with eight pairs of cervical nerves. The individual cervical vertebrae are abbreviated C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, and C7. The cervical nerves are also abbreviated; they are C1 through C8. Cervical Vertebrae and Supporting Spinal Structures The cervical bones (the vertebrae) are smaller in size when compared to other spinal vertebrae (in your thoracic or lumbar spines). The purpose of the cervical spine is to contain and protect the spinal cord, support the skull, and enable diverse head movement (eg, rotate side to side, bend forward and backward). A complex system of ligaments, tendons, and muscles help to support and stabilize the cervical spine. Ligaments work to prevent excessive movement that could result in serious injury. Muscles also help to provide spinal balance and stability, and enable movement. Muscles contract and relax in response to nerve impulses originating in the brain."

Between C1 and C4The C4-C5The C5-C6The C6-C7The C7-T1View Results C5 C6 Herniating Disc The c5 c6 herniation is (next to the neighboring c6 c7 disc) the most common occurring bulging or herniating disc in the neck area. Many times this can be a very painful experience. This article will explain what this disc injury type and location means and give you an overview of the symptoms and treatment options for a herniation at this spinal area. Let’s start with explaining what c5 and c6 means: The Disc Between the C5 and C6 Vertebrae There are 7 back bones, also called vertebrae, in the neck portion of the spine. These are all abbreviated with the letter “c” for “cervical” and numbered from c1 to c7. Between each of these back bones or vertebrae there is a disc that helps absorb the weight and at the same time makes the neck more flexible. The c5 c6 disc is located between the c5 and c6 vertebrae. The c5, the c6 and c7 vertebrae are the ones that carry the most weight in the neck region, so obviously the two discs that are between them (c5-c6 disc and c6-c7 disc) run the highest risk of being somehow injured.

Recycling is one of the many ways in which Californians reduce waste. State law mandates recycling centers in established \"\"convenience\"\" zones, and the state provides incentive programs for recycling. Although the Californians Against Waste website reports there are over 2,400 recycling sites already in this state as of 2011, Americans produce an average of over four pounds of garbage per day, according to the U. S. Census Bureau, leaving plenty of room for growth and new businesses.1. Study and familiarize yourself with California's recycling laws, especially those pertaining to \"\"convenience zones\"\" and handling of dangerous or highly pollutive materials. In California, areas where high traffic shopping centers are located and that reasonably produce high volumes of trash or recyclables are established as convenience zones and required to have recycling centers nearby (or else retailers must accept items for recycling). Information about California recycling law can be obtained through Cal Recycle, the California Natural Resources Agency or the California EPA.2. Research California convenience zones to identify recycling centers currently operating in each area, as well as to identify areas where there are few or no centers. Select a location for your business based on where the need for a new recycling center is greatest. If you need assistance during this process, contact the Governor's Office of Economic Development California Business Investment Services (Cal BIS) to utilize its site selection services.3."

[ 1] Efforts to pass container deposit legislation in states that do not have them are often politically contentious. The U.

These three components are so important that they are represented by the three \"\"chasing arrows\"\" of the recycling logo. Collection - Don't Send Recyclables To The Landfill In this phase, materials are separated from the waste stream and prepared to become raw materials. Different cities and municipalities have different systems for sorting and collecting materials that can be recycled. At Stanford, we collect recyclables through the curbside and campus recycling program and the public drop off center. Once collected, we sort the material on campus into various categories. Manufacturing - Using Recycled Materials Instead Of Virgin Raw Materials Recovering the materials is just the first step.

"text": "Beverage Container Recycling: It's in Your Hands Cashing In Important Consumer Refund Info!You can get your beverage container recycling refunds on a per-container basis instead of by weight. By law, you can bring up to 50 aluminum, 50 glass, 50 plastic, and 50 bi-metal California Redemption Value (CRV) containers in a single visit and request to be paid by count. You will be paid the full CRV redemption of 5 cents or 10 cents on each container. Inform the site attendant of your load content and how you would like to receive payment before you hand over your load. Any consumer who has been denied this right by a recycling center can file a complaint via email or by calling 1-800-RECYCLE. If recycling more than 50 containers of any one material type, the decision to pay by count or weight is determined by the recycling center operator. Make sure your containers are whole and free of contaminants such as dirt, excessive liquid or other foreign substances. If you are being paid by weight, make sure the load contains only eligible CRV beverage containers. Daily load limits of empty CRV beverage containers are 100 pounds each for aluminum and plastic, and 1,000 pounds for glass. If the load includes containers not eligible for CRV, the recycling center must either reject the load or pay only scrap value."

I did an experiment before my last run to the recycling center because I wanted to know if it was better to get the can/bottle deposit back (in California we call it \"\"CRV\"\") of $0.05 or $0.10 per can/bottle, or if I was better off recycling per pound. I used an Ohaus triple beam scale and weighed 25 each of various DRY 12oz cans and bottles and 24oz cans and bottles. The data below is the average of the 25 pieces weighed. The cans have definitely gotten thinner. It takes more cans to make up a pound now! You'll need 32.5. unit (1 ea) Grams / Ounces / Pounds / Units / Per Lb 12 oz can - 13.95 / 0.49207 / 0.03075 / 32.516 24 oz can - 25.55 / 0.90125 / 0.05633 / 17.753 12 oz bottle - 183.95 / 6.48865/ 0.40554 / 2.466 24 oz bottle - 342.50 / 12.08133 / 0.75508 / 1.324 You can compare the \"\"units per pound\"\" to determine if the CRV or recycle rate is a better value in your area.

The containers redeemed must be properly labeled and purchased in California. The center pays, at a minimum, the CRV value of the containers. It is optional whether or not a scrap value is added, but this is one incentive that the center may use to attract customers. Certified recycling centers must redeem all eligible container types; however, a certified recycling center operator is not required to buy non-CRV materials from consumers. Some certified recycling centers are equipped with \"\"reverse vending machines\"\" that pay customers for beverage containers placed in the machine. Other operations include staffed centers with bins or a truck with a staff person on-site to pay the CRV and possibly scrap value. These recycling centers are often located within ½ mile of a supermarket as required by the \"\"convenience zone\"\" aspect of the Program. Operators must be certified for each recycling center location they operate. When the operator of a certified recycling center sells the beverage containers to another certified recycling center or a processor, the CRV payment is repaid to the operator and generally a scrap price also."

The researchers also identified the protein that allows Vibrio cholerae to morph, and found that it's activated through quorum sensing.

The schematic models (left) highlight the bacteria's twisted shape during infection. Credit: Image by Thomas Bartlett, Department of Molecular Biology The bacteria that cause the life-threatening disease cholera may initiate infection by coordinating a wave of mass shapeshifting that allows them to more effectively penetrate the intestines of their unwitting victims, according to a study led by Princeton University. The researchers discovered the protein that allows the bacterium Vibrio cholerae to morph into a corkscrew shape that likely helps it twist into -- and then escape -- the protective mucus that lines the inside of the gut. The researchers report in the journal Cell that expression of the shape-changing protein -- which they named Crv A -- is activated through the process of quorum sensing, in which bacteria communicate with one another to coordinate an infection. In experiments, the researchers found that curved V. cholerae cells could more easily move through a thick gel. On the other hand, their research also showed that straight rod-shaped V. cholerae could not infect a host as efficiently."

"text": "Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) are two treatments available to manage coronary artery disease, one performed by working within the blood vessels and the other in an open surgical procedure. PCI and CABG have different risks and benefits, with PCI being less invasive, while CABG tends to reduce the need for additional procedures in the future. When a patient presents with coronary artery disease, the doctor will need to conduct a thorough investigation before she can make a treatment recommendation. One important difference between PCI and CABG is the approach. In PCI, the doctor works through the blood vessels to insert stents and use other techniques to clear plaques in the vessels associated with coronary artery disease. This procedure can utilize a number of different types of stents, including medicated options to maintain vascular health. It is less invasive than a surgical procedure and can carry fewer risks for the patient. In a CABG procedure, the surgeon grafts coronary arteries to bypass an area of blockage or vessel weakness. One or more vessels may be involved. The procedure is more invasive and lengthy, but can also be more effective in the long term."

With so many changes coming our way, ICD-10 Coders Academy brings to you unique aspects in ICD-10 of various coding scenarios and procedures in every edition of our e-newsletter ICD-10 Insight. In this edition of ICD-10 Insight, we will learn how CABG is coded in ICD-10-PCS. Coronary artery bypass procedures are one of the many procedure codes that will become more specific in ICD-10 in terms of the materials used for creating the bypass conduit, approach to the procedure, as well as the source or origin of blood to the coronaries. The fact that ICD-10-PCS is more specific in terms of gathering accurate information and more uniform over the different axes of classification. This may be observed clearly by having a look upon the CABG codes in ICD-9-CM. ICD-9 Volume 3 contains only nine codes in subcategory 36.1 Bypass anastomosis for heart revascularization, to code CABG procedures. From the nine codes in ICD-9 Volume 3 in subcategory 36.1, the first 4 codes describes the procedure in terms of the number of coronary arteries bypassed, the other codes specify the source of blood flow created towards coronary and one code is for unspecified circumstances. This makes the classification inconsistent at the 4th digit axis. Moreover, there is no scope in ICD-9 Volume 3 to capture information about the source or nature of the conduit that is created for revascularization as well as the approach adapted to perform the procedure."

"text": "Heart bypass surgery in India Medical tourism to India is a boon for people who cannot afford travelling to Western countries for their treatment and also for Westerners who do not afford treatment in their own country. One of the very popular and important lifesaving surgery is Heart bypass surgery in India. Heart bypass or cardiac bypass is a critical surgery that requires state of the art infrastructure and highly skilled heart surgeons, both of which are available in India. The cost of heart bypass surgery even at best hospitals for heart bypass in India is a fraction of what it costs in the West. Overview Coronary heart disease is the heart disease when coronary arteries become blocked with fat and calcium deposits known as “plaques”. The blood supply is thus compromised to the muscles of the heart causing symptoms like angina. Left untreated, it can lead to heart attack or heart failure. There are various treatment options for coronary heart disease like: Medication with proper diet and exercise Stents and Balloon angioplasty Bypass Surgery CABGBeating heart surgery or off-pump surgery Arrested heart surgery or traditional bypass surgery Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), also known as heart bypass or open heart surgery is a procedure where a healthy blood vessel (artery or vein) from arm, chest or leg is used to bypass narrowed coronary arteries to restore normal blood flow to the heart muscles. It is done when medications have failed to relieve the symptoms and there are multiple blockages in more than one artery and angioplasty is not a good option. Candidates Cardiac Bypass Surgery is advised: When the number, location, and extent of coronary artery stenosis (occlusions) present a significant risk of heart attack to the patient The left main coronary artery is severely stenosed If the angioplasty has failed or the artery has become narrow again During or immediately after a heart attack to attempt to salvage damaged heart muscle Procedure The procedure involves taking vein or artery from the patient's body and grafting it in a manner that it provides as alternate route for blood flow from aorta to coronary artery bypassing the narrowed segment."

"text": "Download PDF Version Authors Gorav Ailawadi, MD and Irving L. Kron, MDIssue Volume 4 - Issue 6 - Nov/Dec 2007Introduction The profession of cardiothoracic surgery is facing many challenges. The forces affecting cardiac surgeons today are similar to those that affected vascular surgeons 5 to 7 years ago. Cardiologists and vascular surgeons have developed catheter-based skill sets that are being used to treat cardiovascular disease with less invasive approaches. Cardiac surgeons are now at a crossroads and many are learning these minimally invasive techniques. The future of cardiothoracic surgery will be determined by the net result of five unique forces: (1) a decrease in referrals for coronary revascularization with an increase in referrals for valvular disease; (2) an aging population with cardiovascular disease remaining the most common cause of death; (3) a decline in interest in the field of cardiothoracic surgery by general surgery residents and medical students; (4) a predicted shortage of cardiac surgeons; and (5) the development of new minimally invasive techniques by cardiac surgeons and cardiologists. Each of these influences will be further investigated. Decrease in Coronary Revascularization/ Increase in Valve Procedures Data from the American College of Cardiology National Cardiovascular Data Registry (ACC NCDR) indicate a decrease in the number of diagnostic catheterizations and percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) per institution from 2004 to 2006. Diagnostic catheterizations decreased from 1600 cases/institution in 2004 to 1440 cases/institution in 2006. Similarly, PCI decreased from 800 cases/institution in 2004 to 710 cases/institution in 2006. 1 Thus, there is strong evidence for a decline in the number of cardiac catheterizations performed in the United States."

Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Ketoprofen works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body. Ketoprofen is used to treat pain or inflammation caused by arthritis. The ketoprofen regular capsule is also used to treat mild to moderate pain, or menstrual pain.

However, the efficacy of this approach is uncertain. Methods In a substudy of patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction who were enrolled in a randomized trial of medical therapy with or without CABG, we used single-photon-emission computed tomography (SPECT), dobutamine echocardiography, or both to assess myocardial viability on the basis of prespecified thresholds. Results Among the 1212 patients enrolled in the randomized trial, 601 underwent assessment of myocardial viability. Of these patients, we randomly assigned 298 to receive medical therapy plus CABG and 303 to receive medical therapy alone. A total of 178 of 487 patients with viable myocardium (37%) and 58 of 114 patients without viable myocardium (51%) died (hazard ratio for death among patients with viable myocardium, 0.64; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.48 to 0.86; P=0.003)."

"text": "Pricing CABGDecember 20, 2011 at 6:30 am Austin Frakt I’ve now had a chance to read Daeho Kim’s working paper “ Medicare Payment Reform and Hospital Costs ” (ungated pdf). It has already received some attention from Tyler Cowen , Reihan Salam, and Noah Millman, and I’ve already received some comments about it from readers. The key question among the bloggers is whether the phenomenon Kim investigates explains why US health expenditures pulled away from that of other nations beginning in the early 1980s, an upward bending of the cost curve. Actually, it’s fairly easy to put that question to rest without reading very far into Kim’s paper. It suffices to know that it’s about how Medicare’s payment system for inpatient hospital services increased use of certain costly inpatient services and inpatient spending. Readers of this blog might recall that the 1980s phenomenon is largely an outpatient one (see chart below). Though it is true that the way Medicare pays for inpatient services affects outpatient spending (through substitution), this is not what Kim’s paper is about. Hence, it does not address the main driver of the 1980s curve bending and, consequently, has been somewhat misapplied in the blogosphere to date. The payment reform on which Kim focuses is Medicare’s shift from retrospective to prospective payment for hospital services, phased in in the early 1980s. The key difference between the two payment schemes is that the former pays hospitals whatever they claim their costs are and the latter sets prices for procedures, putting hospitals at risk for covering costs above the set prices or reaping gains if they can provide care below them."

This is accomplished by going around or “bypassing” the blocked artery to increase the blood flow to the heart. It may be performed on an emergency basis following a heart attack, or on an elective basis when conservative treatment measures have failed to relieve symptoms of Coronary Artery Disease such as chest pain and shortness of breath. To learn more about Coronary Bypass Surgery, let us first learn about the normal anatomy of the heart. What is CABG? Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery, also called CABG or “cabbage”, is a surgery used to treat narrowed or blocked arteries that supply blood to the heart. This is accomplished by going around or “bypassing” the blocked artery with a healthy vessel called a “graft” that is taken from the leg, arm or chest. The graft will now carry the blood around the blockage to improve the blood flow to the heart. A CABG may be performed on an emergency basis following a heart attack, or on an elective basis when conservative treatment measures have failed to relieve symptoms of Coronary Artery Disease such as chest pain and shortness of breath. Coronary Bypass surgery is performed by Cardio-Thoracic surgeons in the operating room under general anesthesia."

In general, cabin baggage refers to the carry-on bag you take with you on the plane. If you take a bag with you and the airline staff takes it from you just prior to boarding the plane, telling you they are going to have to check it, that is not considered carry-on, but it is treated as carry-on baggage up until that point (meaning it must meet the guidelines for all other carry-on bags - going through security, no liquids or other FAA-restricted items). Depending on the airline and if you are flying domestically or interntionally, the amount of carry-on items varies."

"text": "\"Air Travel With Pets - Airline Pet Policies, Pet Friendly Jet Charters The Humane Society of the United States recommends that you do not transport your pet by air unless absolutely necessary. If you must transport your pet by air, your best option is to take your pet in the aircraft cabin with you. As long as your pet is a cat or small dog, some airlines will allow you to take the animal on board for an additional fee. Each airline decides if they will allow you to travel with your pet in the passenger cabin. If the airline does allow you to bring your pet into the cabin, your pet container is considered to be carry-on baggage and must be small enough to fit underneath the seat. To find out about this option, call the airline well in advance of your flight, because there are limits to the number of animals allowed in the cabin area. Another option available for pet owners is flying with your pet on a chartered plane. Many charter services allow animals, regardless of size, to fly in the cabin as passengers close to their owners. Visit your veterinarian to be sure your pet is fit to fly Just about every airline in the world requires documentation from a veterinarian that your pet is in good health before it can board a flight. A veterinarian's checkup should include a general physical examination to check for signs of illness, like coughing or diarrhea."

Checked baggage refers to the items of luggage delivered to an airline or train for transportation in the hold of an aircraft or baggage car of a passenger train, which means it is inaccessible to the passenger during the flight or ride. The opposite of checked baggage is carry-on baggage. This baggage is limited by airlines with regard to size, weight, and number, usually dependent upon the fare paid, or class of ticket.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Premium economy \"\"shell\"\" seats on Japan Airlines. Premium economy is a travel class offered on some airlines. This travel class is positioned between economy class and business class in terms of price, comfort, and amenities. In 1991, EVA Air was the first to introduce Evergreen Class and had since become the first airline to offer this class of service in the world. In some ways Premium Economy has become a standard reflecting what Economy was like 40 years ago (or more); as an example the seat pitch of United Airlines' Economy Class was 36 inches back in the 1970s, the same seat pitch as most airlines' Premium Economy these days. [ 1] [2]Contents [ hide ]1 Characteristics2 Examples of differences3 Airlines4 See also5 References Characteristics [ edit]As of 2011, the term is not standardized among airlines, and varies significantly between domestic and international flights and between low-cost or regional airlines and other airliners. [ 3] Premium economy is sometimes limited to just a bit more leg room, but at its most comprehensive can feature services associated with business class travel. [ 3]Elite class, premium economy on EVA Air Air New Zealand 's and Qantas ' Premium Economy include amenities such as prioritized check-in, large customized seats (some for couples, others targeting solo travelers), seat pitch up to 41 inches (104 cm) with 50% more recline, premium meals, a self-service bar for drinks and snacks, a personal in-flight entertainment center with remote control, noise-cancelling headphones and choices in games and movies for children and adults, skin care products in the lavatory, and an amenities pouch containing items such as socks, sleep masks, earplugs, and toothbrushes. [ 4]At the other extreme, some extra legroom seats in Economy Class, with the same service and seat model, are also marketed as an enhanced Economy class in some airlines. For example, in the United States domestic market, airlines such as American, United, Delta, and Jet Blue have an upgraded Economy class with 2–5 inches (5–13 cm) more leg room as the only difference; they market the class as Main Cabin Extra, [5] [6] Economy Plus, Comfort+, and Even More Legroom respectively, while other services such as ground services and food and beverage services are on par with their normal Economy Class.

"text": "\"Air Travel Airlineseasy Jet and Ryanair Hand Baggage Allowance What are the dimensions for luggage on these popular budget airlines? By Damian Corrigan Updated 12/12/17Share Pin Email•••Ryanair and easy Jet, the most popular airlines in Europe, both charge for checking a bag into the hold. So many travelers try to fit everything in their carry-on case. To get the most out of your hand baggage, you'll need to know how much you are allowed to take with you in the cabin. With both airlines, allowances are getting more complicated, not less. Ryanair now allows you take a second smaller bag with you, but their standard bag size remains one of the smallest in the industry, meaning the hand baggage you would normally use for another airline might not be permitted on a Ryanair flight. And even if your baggage is permitted, a flight attendant or ground staff with a chip on their shoulder might still fine you. See below for more on this. Easy Jet is a lot more lenient, but they've still complicated matters by having two maximum sizes, though the new rule is actually in your favor, with their new guaranteed hand baggage allowance. Read on for details."

Hold luggage is standard though (the size varies depending on your ticket and destination). Thomas Cook have a cabin baggage allowance of:1 main item cabin bag + additional item Weight allowance of up to 6 kg Size limit cannot exceed the dimensions of 55cm by 40cm by 20cm Child`s Trunki cases are allowed as long as they are within the 6 kg weight limit The additional item can be a laptop, small ladies handbag, small bag with shoulder strap, duty free items or assistive devices for people with disabilities. The page also says a camera, overcoat, babies food but this seems unlikely to be enforced and a bit of a waste of your allowance so I would just put those items in a pocket or put them on for a couple of minutes while at the gate. You can check the official rules here. This page is only a guide and if you have special circumstances it is always best to contact the airline and ask. I hope you found this page useful and if you know a friend flying with Thomas Cook soon please share this page with them so they avoid paying excess baggage fees and worrying about baggage limits! Make sure you follow the Thomas Cook cabin baggage allowance fully or you may find you have to pay extra fees and fines.

"text": "Gate Checking Your Stroller when Flying with Baby By Corinne on 13:54 in Baby Travel Gear, Flying With Baby, Getting Around Tweet The walks are long. You need a stroller!Whether you’ve bit the bullet and bought a Maclaren, are schlepping along your trusty jogging stroller, or toting your fancy new Baby Jogger, if you’re bringing your stroller when you’re flying with baby, you’ll need to gate check it. This seemed really complicated to me before I actually did it, but honestly – it’s nothing. Depending on your airline, of course, your stroller simply needs to fold. * SEE BELOW FOR DIFFERENT AIRLINE GATE CHECKING STROLLER POLICIES*When you check in with your luggage, you tell the counter person that you want to gate check your stroller, and they’ll either give you a tag to affix, or put it on your stroller themselves. If your stroller needs to be folded in two pieces (I’m looking at you, Bugaboo) they’ll give you two tags – one for each part. I don’t necessarily believe you need to purchase a lighter stroller specifically for travel, some airlines (like American Airlines, for example) have re-jigged their gate-checking policies so that only light ones may be gate checked. With our jogging stroller, I was concerned we’d have to deflate the tires. We didn’t, but I had a small pump and a patch kit in our carry-on anyway, just in case we got a flat on our trip. In most cases the stroller was waiting for us as we deplaned, but in smaller Caribbean destinations like Cuba, we retrieved it at the baggage claim."

"text": "History The history can provide important clues to fever of unknown origin (FUO) due to zoonoses, malignancies, and inflammatory/immune disorders. In adults with FUO, inquire about symptoms involving all major organ systems and obtain a detailed history of general symptoms (eg, fever, weight loss, night sweats, headaches, rashes). Record all symptoms, even those that disappeared before the examination. Previous illnesses (including psychiatric illnesses) are important. Look for patterns of symptoms and relapsing fevers. Make a detailed history evaluation that includes the following: Family history Immunization status Dental history Occupational history Travel history, especially within the prior year Nutrition and weight history (including consumption of dairy products); note changes in the fit of clothing if the patient does not monitor weight Drug history (over-the-counter medications, prescription medications, illicit substances)Sexual history Recreational habits Animal contacts (including possible exposure to ticks and other vectors)Surgery, invasive procedures, trauma Fever pattern Fever with rigors or shaking chills is most suggestive of infection, as opposed to noninfectious inflammatory conditions. In general, specific fever patterns do not correlate strongly with specific diseases. Notable exceptions include classic recurrent fevers, as follows: Tertian fever in prolonged malaria (occurring every third day)Undulant fever in brucellosis (evening fevers and sweats resolving by morning)Tick-borne relapsing fever in borreliosis (week-long fevers with week-long remissions)Pel-Ebstein fever in Hodgkin disease (week-long high fevers with week-long remissions)Periodic fevers in cyclic neutropenia Double quotidian fever (two fever spikes a day) in adult Still disease; also seen in malaria, typhoid, and other infections Morning fevers in polyarteritis nodosa, tuberculosis, and typhoid Historical clues to likely noninfectious inflammatory causes of FUOCollagen vascular and autoimmune diseases can manifest as FUO if the fever precedes other, more specific manifestations (eg, arthritis, pneumonitis, renal involvement). Weight loss is not unusual. Clues and etiologic associations are as follows: Headache, jaw claudication, and visual disturbances (visual loss, blurred vision, diplopia, amaurosis fugax): Giant cell or temporal arteritis Symmetrical pain and stiffness of lumbar spine and large proximal muscles (neck, shoulders, hips, thighs): Polymyalgia rheumatica; also myalgias, tender muscles, lacelike rash (livedo reticularis), testicular pain High-spiking fevers, nonpruritic morbilliform rash that follows the fever curve, arthralgias: Adult-onset Still disease, lymphadenopathy Facial rash: SLERight lower quadrant pain, diarrhea (or none): Crohn disease (regional enteritis); Yersinia enteritis may mimic Crohn disease or appendicitis Erythema nodosum, painful nodules on shins: Idiopathic erythema nodosum may itself cause fever sarcoidosis; Crohn disease; ulcerative colitis; Behçet disease Historical clues to likely infectious causes of FUOClues and etiologic associations are as follows: Previous abdominal surgery, trauma, or a history of diverticulosis, peritonitis, endoscopy, urologic or gynecologic procedures: Intraabdominal abscess, perinephric abscess, psoas abscess Erythema nodosum, painful nodules on shins: Granulomatous fungal infections, histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis, Yersinia enteritis, tuberculosis Animal and animal product exposures A history of exposure to unpasteurized dairy (eg, swine, cattle, goats, camels, sheep) may suggest the following: Brucellosis Coxiella burnetii ( chronic Q fever, Q fever endocarditis; parturient animals aerosolize Coxiella from the placenta)Yersinia enterocolitica / Yersinia pseudotuberculosis: Mesenteric adenitis, pseudoappendicitis, with or without diarrhea Exposure to birds (especially new pets, sick birds) may suggest Chlamydia psittaci infection."

Help us identify the species of ticks and determine the risk for tick-borne disease in your region. Any tick you find on yourself or pets, safely remove and place it in a container with a few blades of grass. Fill out the Tick Identification Submission Form (PDF) and follow the shipping instructions. You will be notified of what tick species it is. Ticks are small blood-feeding parasites that can transmit diseases to people. Some types of ticks perch on the edge of low-lying vegetation and grab onto animals, and people, as they brush past. Other ticks are associated with rodents and their nests and may only come out at night to feed. Once aboard, ticks crawl until they find a good spot to feed, then burrow their mouthparts into the skin for a blood meal. Their bodies slowly enlarge to accommodate the amount of blood ingested."

Sure, flying from Melbourne to Hobart or Launceston is a faster option, but isn’t the journey half the fun of travelling to a new place? ! My friend Vickie had just moved from America to Melbourne, and with a spare week before starting her new job she was keen to explore Australia. Where better to begin than Tasmania? Check-in for the Spirit of Tasmania During the cooler months, the Spirit of Tasmania departs Port Melbourne nightly at 7:30 pm and arrives in Devonport the following morning at 6:00 am. that’s 11 hours. During the warmer months, or on days with double sailings, the voyage only takes 9 hours. Check-in was easy. Drive through to collect your boarding pass – and cabin keys if you booked a cabin – from the attendant at the check-in booth then before driving over the gangway onto the ship. Grab your overnight bag, lock up your car, and head up to your cabin ready to set sail!One thing we didn’t take into consideration before our trip was that the sun sets well before departure during the autumn/winter months meaning darkness had set in over the city."

"text": "Scream Kings: Eli Roth and Quentin Tarantino By Logan Hill Share This (Photo: Chris Polk/AP Photo)F ilmmaker Eli Roth, 33, is a true horror believer. Instead of doing the electric slide at his bar mitzvah, he had himself sawed in half with a chain saw and insisted on a fake-blood-splattered cake. In 1995, he won a Student Academy Award for his NYU thesis film Restaurant Dogs, which cribbed the title sequence from Reservoir Dogs and so offended his professors that several protested the prize, calling the movie “sophomoric, overtly offensive, and gratuitously violent.” In 2002, Roth’s feature debut, Cabin Fever, a sick film about teens stranded in the woods with a flesh-eating virus, grossed $100 million (in ticket and DVD sales) on a $1.5 million budget—and, perhaps as importantly, it got the attention of Roth’s idol Quentin Tarantino. Now the two are buddies, and Roth’s second, nastier feature, Hostel —about doomed American backpackers in Europe—is opening as a “Quentin Tarantino Presents” film this week. Logan Hill talked to them. Quentin, I assume you’ve seen Eli’s homage to you by now? Q. T.: It’s really funny. And to win that award and have professors mad at you? For a horror director, that’s perfect."

"text": "\"An Introduction to Focus Stacking A guest post by Chen Wei Li from www.bythewei.com. After weeks of preparation, I finally set out to the Singapore Botanical Gardens to nail the shot above using the technique called focus stacking. Focus stacking is a technique used to increase depth of field in a shot with post production. This works especially well for shots using long lens and in this case, a macro lens. Let’s go back to some photography 101 here. There are three factors that will affect depth of field or ‘bokeh’:1. Focal length. Essentially the longer your lens, the more shallow your depth of field is.2. Distance to subject. The nearer you are to your subject, the shallower your depth of field is and it very much applies to macro lens.3."

The discovery was reported in the San Francisco newspapers in March but caused little stir as most did not believe the account. The spark that ignited the gold rush occurred in May 1848 when Sam Brannan, a storekeeper in Sutter's Creek, brandished a bottle filled with gold dust around San Francisco shouting 'Gold! Gold! Gold from American River!' The residents of the city now had proof of the discovery and the stampede to the gold fields was on. San Francisco's harbor was soon cluttered with derelict ships deserted by their crews. Workers abandoned their jobs - San Francisco's two newspapers were forced to close their doors as their staffs were struck by gold fever. The populations of many of the coastal towns were depleted as prospective prospectors headed to the gold fields. The New York Herald printed news of the discovery in August 1848 and the rush for gold accelerated into a stampede."

The Potato Famine and Irish Immigration to America Between 1845 and 1855 more than 1.5 million adults and children left Ireland to seek refuge in America. Most were desperately poor, and many were suffering from starvation and disease. They left because disease had devastated Ireland’s potato crops, leaving millions without food. The Potato Famine killed more than 1 million people in five years and generated great bitterness and anger at the British for providing too little help to their Irish subjects. The immigrants who reached America settled in Boston, New York, and other cities where they lived in difficult conditions. But most managed to survive, and their descendants have become a vibrant part of American culture. Even before the famine, Ireland was a country of extreme poverty. A Frenchman named Gustave de Beaumont traveled the country in the 1830s and wrote about his travels."

Roberto Benigni's Holocaust drama somehow manages to tell a heartwarming story against the backdrop of genocide, and the result netted the film three Academy Awards in 1999. Though it's received some criticism for its use of humor and sentimentality while, again, the Holocaust is happening, it's still worth your time.

"text": "\"The case of a Colorado teenager who died this month of a rare case of plague has revived concerns about a disease many people wrongly assume died out in the Middle Ages. Taylor Gaes died June 8 -- the day after his 16th birthday -- of what was later confirmed to be plague. Officials say this is the first case of the disease since 1999 in Larimer County, about 2 hours north of Denver. Gaes, a top high school athlete who was both football quarterback and starting pitcher on his baseball team, started feeling sick with flu-like symptoms earlier this month, CBS Denver reports. A few days later, when he began coughing up blood, his parents rushed him to a hospital in Fort Collins. They were just 5 miles away when Gaes stopped breathing and died. Play Video Rare case of plague kills healthy Colorado teen Plague can be treated with antibiotics if it's caught early, but that doesn't always happen because the illness is so rare and initial symptoms like fever and body aches mimic those of the flu. \"\" The quick onset like he had, often accompanied by some aches and pains, those are really the only symptoms that Taylor complained of, so it's a very general, hard to diagnose type of illness,\"\" Katie O'Donnell, a spokesperson for Larimer County Public Health and Environment, told CBS Denver. The most common form of the disease, bubonic plague, accounts for about 80 percent of cases in humans, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Its hallmark is painfully swollen lymph nodes, known as buboes, along with fever and chills, a severe headache, body aches, and exhaustion."

"text": "News Q&A: Deer mice carry fatal, incurable disease0 Comments By Orange County Register September 12, 2012 at 3:57 pm Answers to common questions about the outbreak and hantavirus: Q: What is hantavirus? A: Technically, it’s called hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, and it’s spread by infected rodents, especially the common deer mouse. It was first discovered in the United States in 1993 near the Four Corners region – where Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona meet. At the time, no one knew what caused the disease, in which the lungs fill with fluid, essentially drowning its victims. Humans can contract the often fatal disease by inhaling airborne particles of dried feces or urine from an infected rodent. Gross? Yes, but exposure isn’t uncommon when you go camping or if you sleep in a building that has been empty for awhile and is near nature. About one in seven deer mice – in Orange County and elsewhere – carries hantavirus. Q: Can I catch hantavirus from somebody who is infected? A: No."

"text": "Definitioncommon access card (CAC)Posted by: Margaret Rouse What Is.com1. A common access card (CAC) is a Unites States Department of Defense (Do D) smart card for multifactor authentication. CACs are issued as standard identification for active-duty military personnel, reserve personnel, civilian employees, non-Do D government employees, state employees of the National Guard and eligible contractor personnel. In addition to its use as an ID card, a CAC is required for access to government buildings and computer networks. A CAC is about the size of a standard debit card and has an embedded microchip that enables the encryption and cryptographic signing of email and use of public key infrastructure ( PKI) authentication tools. The microchip contains a digital image of the cardholder’s face, two digital fingerprints, organizational affiliation, Social Security number, agency, card expiration date, and PKI certificate. When a CAC is inserted into a smart card reader and the associated PIN has been entered, software in the reader uses standard Internet protocols to compare the information on the card's chip with data on a government server and either grant or deny access. While a CAC is being used to access a computer system, the card stays in the reader for the duration of the session. When the card is removed from the reader, the session ends and the system remains inaccessible until the next user is validated. There are currently four kinds of Do D CAC cards: Geneva Conventions Identification Card - issued to active duty/reserve armed forces and uniform service members."

"text": "\"Installation Overview Location Now the largest Army’s installation in the Pacific encompassing 3,453 acres, Camp Humphreys is located 55 miles south of Seoul, the nation's capital. The local cities of Pyeongtaek and Anjung-ri are growing to help meet the future demands for what will be the newest military installation on the peninsula. Both cities offer a variety of housing options and living areas. To reach the base operator dial DSN 315-723-1110 or from commercial line dial 011-82-31-2-7913-1110. For information about all installations in the Republic of Korea, visit the Eighth Army website at http://8tharmy.korea.army.mil History The history of Camp Humphreys dates back to the beginning of the 20th century when, in 1919 the Japanese military built the Pyeongtaek Airfield. Later, during the Korean War, Pyeongtaek Airfield was named K-6 after being repaired and enhanced by the U. S. Air Force to accommodate a U. S. Marine Air Group and the 614th Tactical Control Group. In 1962, the airfield was renamed Camp Humphreys, in honor of Chief Warrant Officer Benjamin K. Humphreys of the 4th Transportation Company, who died in a helicopter accident near the installation. In 1964, Humphreys District command, later re-designated as the 23rd Direct Support Group, was activated as a separate installation command of the Eighth U. S. Army providing all direct support, supply and maintenance, storage of all conventional ammunition in Korea, Adjutant General publications and training aides and the Eighth U. S. Army Milk Plant. In 1974, with the activation of the 19th Support Brigade, Camp Humphreys was re-designated as U. S. Army Garrison, Camp Humphreys. USAG-Camp Humphreys was still responsible for all affairs affecting personnel stationed at Camp Humphreys, but the 19th Support Command was responsible for all support activities vital to the Eighth U. S. Army and its subordinate units."

Enterprise e-mail will provide enhanced Webmail capability and 500 megabytes of online storage for Webmail accounts. ( Photo Credit: Mrs. Siobhan Carlile (7th Signal))VIEW ORIGINALFORT GORDON, Ga., Jan. 28, 2011 -- Feeling slightly intimidated by all the high tech terminology surrounding the imminent Enterprise Email migration' Although the road toward Enterprise e-mail may seem complicated, there is a clear map, leaders know where the effort is headed, and the economy sized e-mail box Soldiers have now is about to become a luxury sedan, about 40 times bigger. There is more great news. Soldiers moving to a new assignment will be able to turn on their computers and instantly access their e-mail. While this may sounds too good to be true, by the end of this year it will be reality for Army personnel. During 2011, all Army e-mail users will migrate to Enterprise e-mail service. Instead of accessing e-mail through local e-mail servers at each installation, they will reach through the network to access e-mail services from centralized servers known as the Department of Defense cloud. The migration of e-mail services to the Defense Information Systems Agency, or DISA, is part of a larger Do D effort to consolidate information technology services, improve capabilities, and reduce overall costs. Key advantages of Enterprise e-mail - Access to e-mail anywhere, at any time, from any authorized, CAC-equipped computer - E-mail accounts remain active during duty station moves and unit relocations - Share individual, organizational, and resource calendars across the enterprise - Find e-mail addresses and contact information of Army and Do D e-mail users at other locations across Do D - Send e-mails with larger attachments than is currently allowed - 4 gigabytes of online e-mail storage for standard e-mail account holders - 500 megabyte webmail accounts for those who don't normally use Army e-mail to perform their duties The migration to this new capability begins in mid-February 2011 with an initial \"\"fielding\"\" to about 2,000 selected e-mail users, according to Brig."

These changes mandate a federal standard for secure and reliable forms of identification and are designed to “enhance security, increase government efficiency, reduce identity fraud and protect personal privacy,” according to HSPD12. The CAC itself won’t look much different but the most important information on changes is how and who can get IDs. “There are lots of changes,” said Karen Maschak, the One Stop site security manager and ID card team chief. “ But as far as the public is concerned, right now they are looking at (about eight) changes that they need to know. ”For starters the employees at One Stop can no longer accept I-9—a list of what was acceptable documentation for the Army—documentation. “Now it has gone to a DOD list of acceptable identity documents,” Maschak explained. “ The information is online with DMDC (Defense Man-power Date Center) probably. The info (will soon) be found on Knox website, and updated as changes are finalized. ”Other changes include issuing IDs to dependent children 18 years and older."

You'll be turned around, sent back and you'll have to go through the background check and be issued a temporary pass to get on the installation.

I am currently working at the Joint Center for International Security Force Assistance as an Army strategist (FA 59) at Fort Leavenworth where we have responsibilities that place us working to identify and integrate SFA knowledge and practices into the institution, and also to provide operational support to deployed units. We work with the greater JIIM community on SFA and related issues, but we are not necessarily where some have identified us as being e.g. we have a relationship with FT Riley, but they are FORSCOM driven, and we are a Joint Center -- like most organizations with \"\"Center\"\" in the title, there is plenty of responsibility not necessarily with commensurate authority. We are a Chairman's activity, and LTG Caldwell is \"\"dual-hatted\"\" as both the CAC CDR and the JCISFA Director. Originally JCISFA was established under then LTG Petraeus when he was the CAC CDR, along with the COIN Center that Cavguy works at. We are about a 25 person organization, with about five Marines, eight Army personnel, one Sailor, and eleven contractors. JCISFA's current mission statement: Institutionalize lessons and best practices from security force assistance (SFA) operations to better prepare U. S. and partner nation forces to rebuild security infrastructure during stability, security, transition, and reconstruction operations. Serve as the DOD Center of Excellence and U. S. Armed Forces focal point to provide advice and assistance for international security force assistance mission. Appropriately, much like the SFA effort it supports, JCISFA achieves much of its mission through influencing, and you influence by providing good analysis and suggestions, good products that help the operational and institutional JIIM community get its arms around things, and by being right more often then being wrong. Because of the scale of the advisory mission, there is a great deal of related activity, numbers of centers (Riley is not the only Advisory training center in the JIIM community), and as the advisory mission becomes more accepted as something which will not only endure in Iraq and Afghanistan, but may become a key tenet of a greater \"\"Indirect\"\" strategy which focuses on building partner capacity, there has been more senior leader interest into how SFA fits into the \"\"Full Spectrum\"\" construct."

While there are no indications of adverse health effects to mother or child from Permethrin-treated clothing, female Soldiers who are pregnant, nursing, or trying to get pregnant are authorized to wear an untreated ACU or maternity uniform. Who is authorized to wear non-permethrin treated ACUs? Pregnant Soldiers Nursing Soldiers Female Soldiers who are trying to get pregnant Soldiers with known or suspected permethrin hypersensitivity How do Soldiers trying to become pregnant, pregnant, or postpartum and nursing request a temporary medical profile and purchase an ACU without permethrin? Soldiers must meet with their health care provider to obtain a temporary e Profile (DA Form 3349, physical profile) authorizing the wear of an ACU without permethrin. Proof of this medical profile allows the Soldier to special order a non-treated uniform through the Army Military Clothing Sales stores, at own cost, prior to or after the wear of a non-treated maternity uniform. The profile is issued/monitored as any other temporary profile. The pregnancy (9 months) and postpartum (6 weeks after delivery) profiles reflect the optional wear of the ACU without permethrin with a maximum duration of 90 days (subject to renewal), with no functional or Army Physical Fitness Test restrictions. The profile can be continued for 12 months; any extension requires approval by the Medical treatment Facility Commander in cooperation with the Soldier's Commander."

"text": "\"Top Definitioncaco A caco is pretty much the Puerto Rican cousin of the British townie / chav or the North American wanksta / wigger . Their name comes from the greek \"\"cacos\"\" meaning \"\"bad\"\" or \"\"low quality\"\" (Example: cacophony) and was a term in used in Spain referring to a low-life. The female counterpart is called \"\"caca\"\" humorously enough. Cacos listen to reggaeton in the same way that wankstas listen to gangsta rap and chavs listen to garage but they will also listen to anything resembling the sound (i.e. no talent music about gangs,hos and tha ghetto). Caco fashion generally consists of mostly athletic clothes of known brands or anything that makes them look like they're rich (which is hypocritical considering their inverse snob ghetto behavior). Males: brightly colored basketball jerseys wife beaters or long white T-shirts, baggy denim shorts, expensive reebok or nike sneakers (usually white) or wheat colored Timberland or Lugz boots and a white or 2 toned baseball cap. When cacos want to dress fine on a night out, they will wear imitation designer jeans, horizontal striped polo shirts and a pair of pointy tan colored shoes ( puerto rican fence hoppers ). Preferred hairstyles are usually crew cuts which makes them looks like clones of each other or corn rows. And of course no \"\"self respecting\"\" caco would be complete without a shit-load of gold jewelry mainly thick heavy gold chains with a huge medallion or cross, heavy gold rings and of course an imitation \"\"blinged out\"\" diamond earrings. Females: Are J-Lo wannabes so they will fashion themselves after her gaining a look that makes them look like cheap ghetto whores."

Puerto Rican Spanish differs significantly from other dialects of Spanish because of the island’s status as a commonwealth of the United States, which adds sizable English influences to the language. Puerto Ricans often use anglicisms and words made directly from English; for example, “janguiar” means “to hang out”. Puerto Rican Spanish also is influenced by the language of the Taíno original inhabitants of the islands, by those of the African slaves brought by colonial Spain, and by the Spanish dialects of immigrants from the Canary islands and Andalusia. An example of the latter is Puerto Ricans oftenleaving “D” sounds out of words, for instance the word “arrancado” (ripped out) is commonly pronounced and spelled “arrancao”. Idiomatic expressions may be difficult to translate fully and may have multiple meanings, so the English translations below may not reflect the full meaning of the expression they intend to translate.♥♥♥AA calzón quita’o – Calzón is the old Spanish for breeches. A calzón quita’o literally means with pants off, it is used to express that something or someone have nothing to hide and can be trusted; bluntly honest. e.g. Hablemos a calzón quita’o translate as let’s have an honest conversation. A fuego – Literally means “On fire”, but it refers to something being “cool” or “good”. “ Don’t bother him, he’s a good person”. “"

S. Marine Corps, the highest rank authorized at that time, and at the time of his death the most decorated Marine in U. S. history. During his 34-year career as a Marine, he participated in military actions in the Philippines, China, in Central America and the Caribbean during the Banana Wars, and France in World War I. Butler is well known for having later become an outspoken critic of U. S. wars and their consequences, as well as exposing the Business Plot, a purported plan to overthrow the U. S. government. By the end of his career, Butler had received 16 medals, five for heroism. He is one of 19 men to twice receive the Medal of Honor, one of three to be awarded both the Marine Corps Brevet Medal and the Medal of Honor, and the only Marine to be awarded the Brevet Medal and two Medals of Honor, all for separate actions. In 1933, he became involved in a controversy known as the Business Plot, when he told a congressional committee that a group of wealthy industrialists were planning a military coup to overthrow Franklin D. Roosevelt, with Butler selected to lead a march of veterans to become dictator, similar to other Fascist regimes at that time. The individuals involved all denied the existence of a plot and the media ridiculed the allegations. A final report by a special House of Representatives Committee confirmed some of Butler's testimony. In 1935, Butler wrote a book titled War Is a Racket, where he described and criticized the workings of the United States in its foreign actions and wars, such as those he was a part of, including the American corporations and other imperialist motivations behind them. After retiring from service, he became a popular activist, speaking at meetings organized by veterans, pacifists and church groups in the 1930s.

We hope they will bring to life the many themes with which Danticat builds her story of a young Haitian woman's coming to terms with her country, her mother, and her own identity. Danticat's heroine is Sophie Caco, who has spent a happy childhood in rural Haiti with her grandmother and her beloved aunt Atie, who raised her as her own child. Sophie's mother, Martine, lives in New York City and supports the family with the money she sends home. When Sophie is twelve years old, Martine sends for her, and Sophie must leave the only home and family she knows and begin a new life in a strange country with a mother she hardly remembers. As Sophie overcomes her initial fears and becomes closer to her mother, she learns that Martine has for many years been tormented by memories of the anonymous man--Sophie's father--who violently raped her when she was a teenager. Martine's fears frequently carry her to the verge of madness, and she inevitably brings her feelings of terror and guilt to bear upon her daughter. Sophie finds the palpable pain in her home impossible to cope with, and she elopes with Joseph, a musician some years older than she. But Martine has left Sophie with emotional problems that continue to haunt her in her new life, and in an attempt to come to terms with her past and her family, she takes her infant daughter to Haiti. There the four generations of women finally come to understand one another, and while life ends tragically for Martine, Sophie is able to go back to her American life with new strength."

"text": "Background Enterococci are part of the normal intestinal flora of humans and animals. They have been long recognized as important human pathogens and are becoming increasingly so. The genus Enterococcus includes more than 17 species, although only a few cause clinical infections in humans. Since the beginning of the antibiotic era, they have posed major therapeutic challenges, including the need for synergistic combinations of antibiotics to successfully treat enterococcal infective endocarditis (IE). Enterococcus species are facultative anaerobic organisms that can survive temperatures of 60°C for short periods and that grow in high salt concentrations. In the laboratory, enterococci are distinguished by their morphologic appearance on Gram stain and culture (gram-positive cocci that grow in chains) and their ability to (1) hydrolyze esculin in the presence of bile, (2) their growth in 6.5% sodium chloride, (3) their hydrolysis of pyrrolidonyl arylamidase and leucine aminopeptidase, and (4) their reaction with group D antiserum. Before they were assigned their own genus, they were classified as group D streptococci. Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium are the most prevalent species cultured from humans, accounting for more than 90% of clinical isolates. Other enterococcal species known to cause human infection include Enterococcus avium, Enterococcus gallinarum, Enterococcus casseliflavus, Enterococcus durans, Enterococcus raffinosus, and Enterococcus mundtii. [ 1] E faecium is responsible for most vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) infections."

So far eight people have been confirmed as dead after the storm hit land yesterday but that number is expected to rise. Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said the UK is ‘taking swift action to respond’ to the disaster after speaking to the chief minister of Anguilla, a British overseas territory that was among the first islands to be hit. Britons in the region have been urged to follow evacuation orders, while states of emergency have been declared in Puerto Rico, Cuba and Florida – amid fears Miami could be struck directly by the hurricane."

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

How to Increase Digestive Enzymes List of Foods That Aggravate the Gall Bladder Bile, produced by your liver from water, salts and cholesterol, helps your body digest fats by acting as an emulsifier -- a substance that breaks large fat particles into smaller ones in preparation for further action by digestive enzymes. Healthy production and flow of bile, supported by certain nutrients, helps ensure healthy digestion. Soluble Fiber Soluble fiber in oat bran supports bile production by promoting secretion of bile acids, according to a study published in the August 2007 issue of the \"\"European Journal of Clinical Nutrition.\"\" Participants consumed 75 grams of oat bran at breakfast each day for two 3-day periods. Results showed a 144-percent increase in excretion of bile acids within 24 hours of eating oat bran. Researchers concluded that oat bran's soluble fiber may work by preventing reabsorption of bile from the intestinal tract, causing the body to have to produce fresh bile. Phenolic Compounds Phenolic compounds in artichokes increase bile flow by up to 150 percent, according to the European Scientific Cooperative's book \"\"Escop Monographs: The Scientific Foundation for Herbal Medicinal Products.\"\" Artichoke contains an array of 10 different phenolic compounds, which have antioxidant and other beneficial effects. An animal study published in the July 2012 issue of the journal \"\"Phytotherapy Research\"\" found that diets supplemented with artichoke leaf for 6 weeks resulted in a 50 percent increase in excreted bile acids."

"text": "What Is Vegetable Glycerin?by Dr. Edward Group DC, NP, DACBN, DCBCN, DABFMLast Updated on November 24, 2015Vegetable glycerin, or glycerol, is a clear, odorless liquid produced from plant oils, typically palm oil, soy, or coconut oil. Palm and coconut oils are natural triglyceride mixtures; each triglyceride is composed of three fatty acids esterified with glycerin. Vegetable glycerin has a number of valuable applications that include cosmetic products, foods, and as a replacement for alcohol in herbal and botanical tinctures. How is Vegetable Glycerin Made? Vegetable glycerin is produced using an extraction process called hydrolysis. During hydrolysis, oils are placed under the combined force of pressure, temperature, and water. The ester bond breaks and causes the glycerin to split from fatty acids and be absorbed by water; at which point the resultant is further isolated by distillation to increase purity. Purified vegetable glycerin has a texture similar to an oil or syrup due to its organic molecular makeup, specifically, three hydroxyl groups. The Benefits of Vegetable Glycerin? Vegetable glycerin used in food applications is USP grade or over 99% pure and has a sweet taste."

Educational requirements typically include: A minimum of three years of undergraduate education, preferably in the sciences; Please NOTE: In Québec two years of CEGEP is accepted at the undergraduate level. A four or five year university program in optometry, accredited by the Accreditation Council on Optometric Education;An increasing number of optometrists choose to do an additional year of residency training upon completion of their Doctor of Optometry degree;Upon completion of the course in optometry, the graduate is required to satisfy provincial board requirements in the province or territory in which they intend to practice. This process also includes a national examination administered by the Optometry Examining Board of Canda. Licensure by the provincial or territorial governing body is required. These requirements ensure the public receives the highest standards of optometric care. OPTOMETRIC EDUCATION There are two schools of optometry located in Canada: University of Waterloo Université de Montréal For a list of accredited American Schools, please click here. OPTOMETRIC PRACTICE Upon graduation optometrists work as associates in an existing practice before buying in as partners, buying another practice or setting up a new practice. Established optometrists usually work in private practice and own or co-own their practices. They may also own or work from more than one location, known as “satellite” offices."

Santiago Lynne C. Olds Eric Sibley Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/S0016-5085 (00)70420-3 Get rights and content Abstract Background & Aims: Lactase is the intestinal disaccharidase responsible for digestion of lactose, the predominant carbohydrate in milk. Transcription of the lactase gene is activated during enterocyte differentiation. We have characterized the interaction between the lactase promoter and Cdx2, a homeodomain protein involved in regulating intestinal development and differentiation. Methods: Nuclear protein bound to the lactase gene cis element, CE-LPH1, was analyzed by electrophoretic mobility shift assays and supershifts with Cdx2 antibody. Lactase promoter activities were assayed in cells transfected with luciferase reporter constructs and a Cdx2 expression construct. Results: Electrophoretic mobility shift assay with CE-LPH1 yields a specific DNA/protein complex that requires the caudal-related protein binding site, TTTAC. The complex is recognized by Cdx2 antibody and is more abundant in differentiated enterocytes. A Cdx2 expression construct is able to activate transcription driven by the wild-type, but not a mutated, promoter and results in increased endogenous lactase messenger RNA. Conclusions: The homeodomain protein Cdx2 interacts with the lactase promoter and is capable of activating transcription of the endogenous gene. In contrast to a previous report, Cdx2 interaction with the lactase promoter correlates with enterocyte differentiation."

But it is something of a medical mystery. According to gastroenterologist Donald Kirby, MD, director of the Center for Human Nutrition at the Cleveland Clinic, “From an MD’s standpoint, it’s a very gray area. Physicians don’t know enough about the gut, which is our biggest immune system organ.” Linda A. Lee MD, a gastroenterologist and director of the Johns Hopkins Integrative Medicine and Digestive Center says, “We don’t know a lot but we know that it exists,” but “in the absence of evidence, we don’t know what it means or what therapies can directly address it.” So on the one hand, they don't know what leaky gut syndrome is, yet Dr Lee admits it does exist. They go on to admit that celiacs and people with Crohns disease do indeed suffer from intestinal permeability or intestinal hyperpermeability and molecules do indeed cross through the intestinal wall when they shouldn't. Dictionary.com defines permeability as: 1. The rate of flow of a liquid or gas through a porous material. 2."

When carbohydrates are malabsorbed, the osmotic load produced by the high amount of low molecular weight sugars and partially digested starches in the small intestine can cause symptoms of intestinal distention, rapid peristalsis, and diarrhea. Colonic bacteria normally metabolize proximally malabsorbed dietary carbohydrate through fermentation to small fatty acids and gases (ie, hydrogen, methane, and carbon dioxide). When present in large amounts, the malabsorbed sugars and starches can be excreted in the stool. Sugar intolerance is the presence of abdominal symptoms related to the proximal or distal malabsorption of dietary carbohydrates. The symptoms consist of meal-related abdominal cramps and distention, increased flatulence, borborygmus, and diarrhea. Infants and young children with carbohydrate malabsorption show more intense symptoms than adults; the passage of undigested carbohydrates through the colon is more rapid and is associated with detectable carbohydrates in copious watery acid stools. Dehydration often follows feeding of the offending sugar. In this review we present the clinical and current molecular aspects of disaccharidase digestion.

Wasserman The Journal of Nutrition, Volume 134, Issue 11, 1 November 2004, Pages 3137–3139, https://doi.org/10.1093/jn/134.11.3137Published: 01 November 2004Views PDF Cite Permissions Share It is well accepted that the intestinal absorption of calcium occurs by 2 distinct mechanisms, a saturable active transport process and a nonsaturable passive diffusion process. The relative importance of these 2 processes and their vitamin D dependency was the subject of recent communications to this Journal. Mc Cormick ( 1 ), in an Issues and Opinion statement, put forth the view that calcium absorption under normal conditions occurs primarily by a saturable process requiring vitamin D. Bronner et al. ( 2) countered with the view that the major mode of calcium absorption is by vitamin D–independent passive diffusion and not by active transport. Bronner et al. ( 2) further stated that in the ileum all calcium is absorbed by the passive route which, as stated before, they consider to be a vitamin D–independent process. Mc Cormick ( 1) agreed that absorption by passive diffusion is independent of vitamin D. Contrary to the aforementioned views, evidence is presented suggesting that the ileum, where most of dietary calcium is absorbed, can absorb calcium by a vitamin D–dependent active process, and that the passive diffusion process of calcium absorption can be positively affected by vitamin D. A brief description of the processes of intestinal calcium absorption. Active calcium transport, prominent in the mammalian and avian duodenum, is by way of the saturable transcellular path, with 3 primary components participating in series in the calcium absorption process. These include the recently identified epithelial calcium channels (Ca T1 and ECa C), which enhance the downhill (energetically speaking) transfer of lumenal calcium into the absorbing enterocyte ( 3, 4 ); the intracellular calbindins (mammalian calbindin-D 9k and avian calbindin-D 28k ), which bind calcium at high affinity and may increase the overall rate of trans -cytosolic diffusion of calcium ( 5, 6 ); and the ATP-activated basolateral membrane calcium pump ( 7 ), which transports cytosolic calcium uphill into the extracellular fluid of the lamina propria. The vitamin D hormone, 1,25-dihydroxcholecalciferol [1,25 (OH) 2 D 3 ], stimulates the synthesis of the epithelial calcium channels ( 8) and the plasma membrane calcium pumps ( 9, 10 ), and induces the formation of the calbindins ( 11 )."

"text": "CAD/CAMWhat is Computer Aided Design (CAD)? Computer Aided Design (CAD) is mainly used for detailed engineering of 3D models and 2D drawings of physical components, but it is also used throughout the engineering process from conceptual design and layout of products, through strength and dynamic analysis of assemblies to definition of manufacturing methods of components. The designed product on the computer can be tested, modified and finalised for real production. See the Associated files below for details about the main applications of CAD/CAM. What is Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM)? CAM is used for planning the different manufacturing operations to create a product. CAM involves milling, drilling, turning, punching, wire EDM (Electric discharge machining sometimes also referred to as spark eroding), knife, laser and plasma cutting and additive manufacturing (3D printing). CAM uses data from CAD software to control automated machinery and generate tool paths to ensure the part machined is the same as the model. See the Associated files below for:details about the main applications of CAD/CAMoutput to CAMWhy teach CAD/CAM? The obvious answer is that modern industry uses CAD/CAM and students need to have some awareness of what this means in terms of product design and manufacture and also the effect on consumers."

"text": "What Are the Benefits of Auto Cad?by John Smith; Updated February 10, 2017Computer Aided Design software, or CAD, has introduced some seriously profound changes in building and manufacturing in the last 25 years. There are many types and brands of CAD software for any number of applications, from automotive design to architecture. CAD versus Auto CADThe name Auto CAD is often used as a generic term for any CAD package. However, this is a common misnomer; Auto CAD is a trademarked name for design software by the Autodesk Company. Auto CAD was one of the first commercially feasible CAD programs. Compatibility One benefit of using Auto CAD is standardization. Auto CAD is the de facto industry standard for Computer Aided Design, so other CAD packages emulate Auto CAD operation and ensure file compatibility across industrial boundaries.2D and 3DAuto CAD makes the transition from 2D to 3D, and vice versa, automated and easy. For instance, some specialized versions automatically generate paper print documentation for the manufacturing process based on a virtual 3D model. CAD/CAMCAD often goes hand-in-hand with CAM, which is Computer Aided Manufacturing. Auto CAD software automatically, and specifically, interfaces with matching CAM packages, creating machine tool program setups for such operations and drilling, milling, turning and grinding."

"text": "\"Computer Integrated Manufacturing One of the keys to success in the manufacturing business is to lessen errors and to enhance productivity. The more one can produce with fewer flaws, the more one can make at the bottom line. Over a period of time factory owners have integrated computer systems in order to streamline the production process. CAD, or computer aided design, has been able to aid the operators in the formulation and blueprints of more sophisticated products and technology. CAM, or computer aided manufacturing, has offered the means by which to produce the more sophisticated items. CAM also enhances the productivity of the factory's output. Together the CAD and CAM systems reduce cycle times, enhance productivity, and aid in the streamlining of the overall production process. Since the 1980's CAD and CAM have worked together to move from the idea phase to the application phase. This process has not ceased because of the implication. The factory sector has slowly been phasing in computer integrated manufacturing, or CIM over the years."

"text": "\"The New Strategy of Integrated Systems: Why Technology Doesn't Always Mean Competitive Advantage May 15, 1984M. B. Packer Executive Vice President Technology Systems and Operations Simon and Schuster Upper Saddle River, NJIntroduction Many executives now devote substantial portions of their day to worrying about new technology: how to develop it, how to market it, how to use it, and not least how to pay for it. Yet, because the new wave of technology sweeping through corporations is fundamentally different from previous technologies, new kinds of strategies must be devised to gain competitive advantage. The new wave of technology has been building ever since the advent of computers. Between information technology (e.g., database management systems, office automation, and personal computers) and design and manufacturing technology (e.g., computer-aided design, robotics, automated storage/retrieval systems), few industries have remained untouched by computerization. Any firm that wishes to remain in business must ride this wave of technology, both in its product line and in its own operations. How New Technology Can Build Competitive Position There are only three ways to gain advantage using technology: keep your competitor from obtaining it, develop or adopt each new technology faster than your rivals do, or implement it better than the opposition. The first of these avenues--keeping competitors from obtaining technology--is impossible if the technology was developed in another industry. For instance, Aetna Insurance cannot stop Liberty Mutual from buying the latest IBM computer. Even proprietary technology developed for a firm's own products is not always safe: \"\"reverse engineering\"\" can reveal technological advances to competitors. A strategy based on trying to keep the competition from obtaining technology over the long term seems to work only in industries with large financial barriers to entry (e.g., the chemical process industry) or for firms with unusually strong patent positions."

Only thing is that there might be some data loss in between or some inaccessibility of the parent features. Engineering departments face countless challenges as they strive to create breakthrough products. They must manage exacting technical processes, as well as the rapid flow of information across diverse development teams. In the past, companies seeking CAD benefits could opt for tools that focused on ease of-use, yet lacked depth and process breadth. Or, they could choose broader solutions that fell short on usability. With Creo Parametric, companies get both a simple and powerful solution, to create great products without compromise. Creo Parametric helps you quickly deliver the highest quality, most accurate digital models.

"text": "\"Text Size Smaller Biggerby Jim La Pierre LCSW, CCSClinical Social Worker/Therapist Email Google+ Twitter Facebook Linked In.com If you’re in recovery, there’s an excellent chance that you’ll at least consider the possibility of working in the field of substance abuse and addictions. Roughly two thirds of all addiction counselors are recovering addicts and alcoholics. For many, it’s simply a passing thought as they consider the benefit that they’ve experienced in a rehab, Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) or counseling center. For others, it’s an exciting new career and a chance to pass on what they’ve learned. What does it takes to enter, maintain, and prosper in the field of addictions counseling? First Things First There’s no defined amount of time that a person should be in recovery before they enter the field. Depending on what you need for education and training, you might be entering the field fairly quickly or years from now. Having at least a couple years under your belt makes sense. Having stability in your daily life before taking on a new challenge is suggested. While it’s not a requirement, I highly recommend that if you have not experienced individual counseling, that you do so before pursuing a career in the field."

PENA, SECRETARY OF TRANSPORTATION, ET AL. CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUITNo.93-1841. Argued January 17, 1995-Decided June 12, 1995Most federal agency contracts must contain a subcontractor compensation clause, which gives a prime contractor a financial incentive to hire subcontractors certified as small businesses controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, and requires the contractor to presume that such individuals include minorities or any other individuals found to be disadvantaged by the Small Business Administration (SBA). The prime contractor under a federal highway construction contract containing such a clause awarded a subcontract to a company that was certified as a small disadvantaged business. The record does not reveal how the company obtained its certification, but it could have been by anyone of three routes: under one of two SBA programs-known as the 8 (a) and 8 (d) programs-or by a state agency under relevant Department of Transportation regulations. Petitioner Adarand Constructors, Inc., which submitted the low bid on the subcontract but was not a certified business, filed suit against respondent federal officials, claiming that the race-based presumptions used in subcontractor compensation clauses violate the equal protection component of the Fifth Amendment's Due Process Clause. The District Court granted respondents summary judgment. In affirming, the Court of Appeals assessed the constitutionality of the federal race-based action under a lenient standard, resembling intermediate scrutiny, which it determined was required by Fullilove v. Klutznick, 448 U. S. 448, and Metro Broadcasting, Inc. v. FCC, 497 U. S. 547. Held: The judgment is vacated, and the case is remanded."

Dance performances were creatively conceptualized by Miller and her dance instructors, with input from the show's producers, while choreography was done by Miller, her staff, and occasionally a guest choreographer. Various rival dance teams spurred the team's competitiveness."

She owns a studio in Ohio called Candy Apple's Dance Center. Their main goal is to beat the Abby Lee Dance Company, and has engaged in various acts of minor comedic villainy. In the third season, she replaced her old team with hand-picked dancers (mostly boys) from across the country. Cathy is most disliked by the other mothers. Christi Lukasiak, Chloe 's mom, gets in the most arguments with Abby, because Abby is constantly favoring Maddie over Chloe. Christi's friendship with Kelly became strained in the third season.

"text": "\"Walking with a Metronome Posted by Danny Dreyer on Sun Nov 9th, 2008, 5 comments Your body loves rhythms; it thrives on them. Your heartbeat, your breathing, your need for rest are all based on certain rhythms that either occur naturally in your body or that you've established in your life. The more rhythm you establish in your daily routine, the better your body likes it. Rhythm is a nature's way of providing structure, of keeping order in the house. When your body has a rhythm to follow it knows what to do and when to do it. If you go to bed regularly at 10pm and get up at 6am, your body knows... \"\"now I get to rest, now it's time to get up.\"\" And it does so more easily and readily than when it doesn't have a regular schedule. That's why parents are often encouraged to keep their children's bedtime schedule as consistent as possible, even on weekends and during school breaks; because kids function better when they remain within their expected rhythm and structure. The same holds true for your exercise routine. If you walk regularly every day, your body gets used to that rhythm."

"text": "What is normal walking? In the last post I commented on the recent paper by Dall et al. ( 2013) and the context of its publication. As commented on by the author in response to that post, some of the results are interesting in their own right. ( I was going to paste a couple of figures from the paper into this article but the publishers require a payment of over $300 to do this legally so you’ll have to download a copy of the paper yourself if you want to see the evidence. ) Figure 1 shows the frequency distribution of minute epochs during which walking was recorded at various cadences. The mean cadence was 76 steps per minute with a cadence of less than 100 steps per minute in about 80% of the minutes during which any walking was recorded. When healthy adults walk at “self-selected” speed in the gait lab they tend to walk at cadences of well over 100 steps per minute (A brief review of the previous literature in Winter (1991) suggests values between 100 and 120). We can thus see that cadence in everyday activity is very different to that during walking in the laboratory. The paper also includes a second graph (Figure 4) showing the same data but for the sub-set of minutes when the participants walked for the full minute."

Around 3 am, a thunderstorm started and broke the silence of the night. I enjoyed the sound of rain on my window and my roof.

The closest thing I had in my mind was the word impinge, which I had seen in a sentence from James Joyce. \"\" I heard the rain impinge upon the earth\"\" -- James Joyce Impinge precisely captures all I want to convey about my experience with the sound of the rain, but it is too formal for a conversation with a friend.

Tuesday October 7, 2014By James Stables@stablesjames When it comes to choosing a GPS sports watch there’s no shortage on the market, but the Garmin Fenix 2 is more than your average run tracker. It’s aimed at the serious multi-sports fan, capable of tracking anything from running, to cross country skiing, and even indoor sports. It’s one of the most feature-complete sports watches on the market, and at £349 ($449) it has a price tag to match. We reviewed the Performer Bundle, which comes with an added heart rate strap. You can shave £30 off the price if you’d rather buy without, but we feel that if you’re spending this much to get a complete picture of your training, the HRM is essential. Wareable review: Garmin Vivosmart But can the performance match the features, and how does the Fenix 2 perform at supercharging your training? Read on to find out. Garmin Fenix 2: Features and design The tally of the sports the Fenix 2 tracks reads more like the schedule of the Olympics than a wearable device feature list, but that’s to its credit. You can strap it on to track running, trail running, hiking, mountaineering, skiing, snowboarding, swimming, and indoor work outs – although that simply harvests heart rate information from the chest strap."

"text": "What Does Cycling Do for Your Body and Legs?by CLAYTON RUNNER Sept. 11, 2017Cycling is an effective low-impact way to stay fit and healthy. It provides many benefits such as increasing strength and endurance, as well as decreasing body fat. Cycling mainly uses the legs but also incorporates upper-body muscles such as the chest, back, biceps, triceps and shoulders for stabilization and performing maneuvers. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Increases Leg Strength An increase in leg strength is achieved by using a low cadence and high resistance. Cadence refers to how fast the pedals are rotating. To increase leg strength, you should use a cadence below 80 revolutions per minute. Focus on using a gear that provides considerable resistance. For example, on an 18-speed bike, set it in high and fourth gear, high being the largest gear located by the pedals and fourth being the fourth gear outward from the rear wheel. Increases Leg Endurance Opposite of increasing leg strength, increasing leg endurance requires a high cadence and low resistance. It is ideal to use a cadence of more than 100 rpm and a relatively low gear."

Posted by Dave on July 28, 2011 | 25 Comments The speeds attained by world-class sprinters like Usain Bolt are simply unfathomable to me. During today’s workout, I ran at nearly top speed for a set of 400-meter repetitions: About a 6-minute-mile pace, or 10 miles per hour. Sure, I could probably hit 15 mph over 50 meters or so, but that would be about it. Bolt, on the other hand, attained a pace of .82 seconds per 10 meters during his world-record sprint: 27.3 miles per hour, or nearly twice as fast as I can run.

Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.0:00 / 2:10But this article, which has been making the rounds lately, suggests that despite Bolt’s prodigious speed, his legs are moving no faster than my own: When Bolt established the current 100-meter world record in the 2009 world championships, running it in 9.58 seconds, he did so by moving his legs at virtually the same pace as his competitors. In fact, if you or I were to compete against Bolt, our legs would turn over at essentially the same rate as his. How could that be? Don’t Bolt’s feet need to contact the ground during his run?"

That's the rate at which your feet hit the ground and it's different for each person. It's a topic I've been fascinated by for years. I first discovered it on the track one day when I was doing some speed work. I had planned to do 10x400-meter intervals with a one-minute break between each. For whatever reason, after the first six intervals, I was ready to call it a day because my times were getting slower and slower and I was feeling increasingly tired with each successive lap. I didn't want to be guilt-ridden for the rest of the day, so I resigned myself to just finish the workout and not pressure myself to run faster. I decided to take it easy and allow my stride to shorten so that I was taking what felt like little tiny steps. It felt easier to relax my legs with the shorter stride and I felt a little bit like I was cheating because I wasn't working as hard just trying to get through those last four intervals. I knew my lap times would be slower because of how much easier my short stride felt, so when I looked at my watch I was floored to see that I had just run my fastest interval of the day."

For example, “The importance of the delayed cadence in Wagner is most easily observed by looking at his use of rests. ”In speaking, cadence is the rise and fall of the voice. For example, “What can be done to improve the cadence of a student [whose speech] sounds very choppy?”Because rhythm is important to bodily movement, the word cadence has a clear application to sports. In horseback riding, cadence is “is the equal measure or proportion which a horse observes in all his motions when he is thoroughly managed.” In cycling, cadence refers to the speed with which the rider turns the pedals.

It is measured in Revolutions Per Minute, or RPM. This is the number of times your legs complete full circles in 60 seconds of riding. ( Don’t know your cadence? Here is how to count your cadence . ) Cadence varies between riders and even the same rider will vary their cadence in a given situation, but most elite riders use a fast cadence. There is no “one size fits all” perfect cadence, but we’ll look at the differences between the high and low cadences in this article. For the purposes of this article, I will use the following measurements to describe cadence: Very slow: 50-70 RPMSlow: 70-80 RPMModerate: 80-90 RPMFast: 90-100 RPMVery Fast: 100-110 RPMExtremely Fast: 110+ RPMTo simplify even further, you can consider anything under 90 RPM to be a low cadence, and 90+ RPM would be a high cadence.

"text": "Cadences in Music: Plagal, Authentic, Deceptive, Half Cadence Share/Bookmark Review our article: Rating: 7.5/ 10 (4 votes cast)All About Cadences Listen to a piece of music that ends with chords and it’s very possible that what you are hearing at the end is a cadence. This is combination of chords that harmonize with one another and end with a strong beat. Think of them as being a musical version of punctuation such as a period that comes at the end of a sentence, or the question mark at the end of a question that leaves you waiting for the response, and you’ll be on the right track for understanding how cadences are used by composers. There are four main types of cadence that you may encounter in your piano playing: Authentic Cadence Deceptive Cadence Half Cadence Plagal Cadence The authentic cadence is the more identifiable of these, and there are two types of cadence that fit into this category; the perfect authentic cadence (PAC), and the imperfect authentic cadence (IAC). A perfect authentic cadence progresses the harmony from a V-I chord and both must be in their root position – although you can add a 7th to the V chord if you want to give a little variation. The final ingredient for the PAC is that the melody must end with tonic pitch. The rules that govern the PAC makes this particular cadence give a clear ending – as in an exclamation mark. The imperfect authentic cadence is far less restricted. The harmony V-I chord with optional 7th is the same, but then there is more choice as regards whether to invert the chord, and how to end the melody. Slightly weaker than the perfect authentic cadence, the IAC acts more like a period at the end of a sentence, rather than the one at the end of a chapter."

As agile project management methods are becoming more widely adopted in companies around the world, many struggle with one of the most basic decisions when starting iterative incremental project approaches: what is the ideal iteration length to use? Let's see if we can tackle that question. Definitions First off, for those of you new to agile management concepts, an iteration is a defined timebox during which a portion of a solution is worked upon. There is a lot of misuse of this term, as many people mix up the terms iteration and increment. Strictly defined, an iteration is a timebox used in an iterative project model. In an iterative model, a whole solution is developed over the course of a project, with snapshot views of \"\"work in progress\"\" being presented to the sponsor and/or stakeholders for feedback at the end of each timebox cycle, called an iteration. In this model, the solution is not completed and fully tested until the end of the project. In an incremental project model, the aspects (features) of a solution are prioritized and are completed in order of priority."

As commented on by the author in response to that post, some of the results are interesting in their own right. ( I was going to paste a couple of figures from the paper into this article but the publishers require a payment of over $300 to do this legally so you’ll have to download a copy of the paper yourself if you want to see the evidence. ) Figure 1 shows the frequency distribution of minute epochs during which walking was recorded at various cadences. The mean cadence was 76 steps per minute with a cadence of less than 100 steps per minute in about 80% of the minutes during which any walking was recorded. When healthy adults walk at “self-selected” speed in the gait lab they tend to walk at cadences of well over 100 steps per minute (A brief review of the previous literature in Winter (1991) suggests values between 100 and 120). We can thus see that cadence in everyday activity is very different to that during walking in the laboratory. The paper also includes a second graph (Figure 4) showing the same data but for the sub-set of minutes when the participants walked for the full minute."

"text": "The Average Bike Riding Speedby RYAN HAAS Sept. 11, 2017Bike riding speeds vary widely depending on your riding conditions. When you are zooming down a paved hill, your speed may increase to over 20 mph, while you may slow to only a few miles per hour when you are climbing a steep or rocky grade. Understanding what the average bike riding speed is may be useful if you are trying to train yourself to be an above average cyclist. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load City Riding In 2006, the city of St. Petersburg, Florida, installed bike riding lanes on two of its streets. During his study of the effects of the bicycle lane installation, senior research scientist William Hunter and his team found that the average speed of the bicycle riders was between 11 and 12 mph before the bike lanes were installed. The lanes were monitored periodically over a two-year period after their installation, and the researchers found that the average speed remained consistent. Cadence Cyclists commonly talk about cadence for measuring performance rather than the actual speed of the bicycle. Cadence is measured in the number of times your pedal rotates per minute. For the average rider, somewhere between 70 and 100 rpm is a good speed to maintain while riding. Your speed may vary throughout a ride as you go up or down hills, but your cadence should remain consistent because that means “you are putting out the greatest amount of power that you are able to sustain efficiently,” according to bicycle mechanic Sheldon Brown."

"text": "news By Joe Beer May 14, 2008 12:00 pm GMTShare on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Google Plus Share on Reddit Technique: Cadence matters Getting your revs right can make a huge difference Learning what cadence works best for you can significantly improve your efficiency (Robert Smith Photography)Cycling is a simple sport really. To break it down into its simplest controllable factors you can vary your effort (heart rate), gearing (front and rear combination) and pedal cadence (revolutions per minute). There are the obvious additional controllable factors of whether you ride on- or off-road and the hilliness of the terrain you choose to cover, but the principle still applies - speed is a function of your effort, your choice of gear and how fast or slow you decide to spin. For example, you can get 30mph with minimal effort in 53x17 downhill, but you can be way up in Zone 3 (86% to 100% HR max), crawling at 9mph grinding your lowest gear if you’re going back up. But what is the best cadence in a given situation? There has been much research on cadence; Mc Naughton and Thomas [1] looked at recreational cyclists at varying levels of revolutions per minute (rpm). They found that they were able to ride longer when using lower cadences ( 50rpm), versus the classic advice given to beginners of 95rpm, or the even higher 110rpm pro level used on the track, in the pro Peloton and during hour records. No substitute for training However, elites are known to pedal faster than beginners, and with more oomph on the down stroke of their pedal action [2]. The exact reason why pros get more force down through the pedals is not clear. But (unsurprisingly) it seems to be due to their muscles, which contain higher blood capillary density and the type of muscle fibres that can only really be built up through years of endurance training – not to mention hill climbing, combined with fast riding in groups that allows high speeds and low effort. This produces high pedalling power and the ability to spin fast."

"text": "Danielle Lackey January 11, 2017The standard mileage rate for 2017 was recently announced by the IRS, advising taxpayers of the optional cents per mile reimbursement rate for the year. It’s important for businesses with mobile employees to be aware of this announcement. The 2017 standard mileage rate provides a benchmark for mobile workers to calculate their reimbursement for their business mileage. While some companies leverage this information to reimburse their employees, it is not the most fair or accurate mileage reimbursement method available to businesses. The standard mileage rate for 2017Each year the IRS calculates a cent per mile rate by which taxpayers can be reimbursed for the business miles driven on their personal vehicles. For 2017, the IRS has determined a rate of 53.5 cents per mile for each business mile driven. The IRS also determined 17 cents per mile rate for medical or moving purposes and 14 cents per mile rate for travel related to charitable service purposes. How did the IRS determine this rate? The IRS accounts for the average costs of owning and operating a vehicle in the previous year. This means the IRS averaged the historical data from 2016 to determine the 2017 standard mileage rate – despite any changes to the current costs."

"text": "Custom Student Mr. Teacher ENG 1001-047 April 2016Literary Devices A form of extended metaphor, in which objects, persons, and actions in a narrative, are equated with the meanings that lie outside the narrative itself. The underlying meaning has moral, social, religious, or political significance and characters are often personifications of abstract ideas as charity, greed, or envy. Thus an allegory is a story with two meanings, a literal meaning and a symbolic meaning. Alliteration The repetition of the same sound at the beginning of a word, such as the repetition of b sounds in Keats’s “beaded bubbles winking at the brim” (“Ode to a Nightingale”) or Coleridge’s “Five miles meandering in a mazy motion (“Kubla Khan”). A common use for alliteration is emphasis. It occurs in everyday speech in such phrases as “tittle-tattle,” “bag and baggage,” “bed and board,” “primrose path,” and “through thick and thin” and in sayings like “look before you leap.” Some literary critics call the repetition of any sounds alliteration. However, there are specialized terms for other sound-repetitions. Consonance repeats consonants, but not the vowels, as in horror-hearer. Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds, please-niece-ski-tree."

The Latin word “cadentes” means ‘falling’ and The Harvard Concise Dictionary of Music and Musicians defines a cadence as: “a melodic or harmonic configuration that creates a sense of repose or resolution [finality or pause]\"\" – which gives one a sense of ‘falling’ as the Latin origin suggests. Cadences are categorized as either weak or strong depending on the force of the finality it imbues and the sense of closure it creates. As a female given name, Cadence is a very recent coinage distinct to the 21st century and specific to the United States. Popularity of the Name Cadence Cadence first appeared on the U. S. popularity charts in 2002 so the use of this girl’s name is barely 10 years in the making. The name quickly advanced up the charts in the first two years of usage – in fact, it jumped almost 750 positions. Since 2005, Cadence has been hanging out around the Top 200 list of most favored girl’s names making it a moderately popular choice.

Although most often applied to products, it is also used in service areas—both within Toyota and in domains such as healthcare. A metaphor (from Don Reinertsen, a lean advocate) we use to convey a key thinking mistake–and opportunity–is the sport of relay racing. Watch the baton, not the runners. Consider a relay race. The racers are standing around waiting for the baton from their colleague. The accountant in the finance department, looking aghast at this terrible underutilization ‘waste,’ would probably mandate a policy goal of “95% utilization of resources” to ensure all the racers are busy and “productive.” Maybe—he would suggest—the runners could run three races at the same time to increase “resource utilization,” or they could run up a mountain while waiting for the baton. Funny… But this kind of thinking lies behind much of traditional management and product development processes."

"text": "\"Genetic factors and mental disorders Follow City-Data.com founder on our Forum or @Lech Mazur Photo by: appler Introduction and overview In recent years, mental health professionals have become increasingly aware of the importance of genetic factors in the etiology (causes) of mental disorders. Since the Human Genome Project began its mapping of the entire sequence of human DNA in 1990, the implications of its findings for psychiatric diagnosis and treatment have accumulated rapidly. A new subspecialty known as biological psychiatry (also called physiological psychology or psychiatric genetics) has emerged from the discoveries of the last two decades. Biological psychiatry got its start in the late 1980s, when several research groups identified genes associated with manic depression and schizophrenia respectively. These studies ran into difficulties fairly quickly, however, because of the complexity of the relationship between genetic factors and mental illness. The ongoing search for genes related to psychiatric symptoms and disorders is complicated by several factors: Psychiatric diagnosis relies on a doctor's human judgment and evaluation of a patient's behavior or appearance to a greater degree than diagnosis in other fields of medicine. For example, there is no blood or urine test for schizophrenia or a personality disorder. Diagnostic questionnaires for mental disorders are helpful in trimming the list of possible diagnoses but do not have the same degree of precision or objectivity as laboratory findings. Mental disorders almost always involve more than one gene. Studies have shown that one mental disorder can be caused by different genes on different chromosomes in different populations."

"text": "Finding Factors that Affect Huntington’s Disease Onset At a Glance Researchers used a novel strategy to find genetic factors associated with the onset of Huntington’s disease symptoms. The approach may lead to ways to predict the onset and progression of disease as well as suggest new therapeutic approaches. Understanding how DNA sequence variations influence the onset of Huntington’s disease could suggest new therapeutic approaches. Silver V/i Stock/Thinkstock. Huntington’s disease is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder. Symptoms usually begin in midlife and include uncontrolled movements, emotional disturbances and, eventually, dementia. Although studies in humans and animals have discovered clues as to how the disorder works, there are no effective treatments. Huntington’s disease is caused by expansions within a gene that codes for a protein called huntingtin. The gene is characterized by multiple repeats of the 3-letter sequence CAG in the DNA code. Most people have 6 to 34 CAG repeats in the gene."

"text": "\"Could a person catch ulcers from a housefly? As preposterous as that might seem, it could happen, at least indirectly. About 90 percent of ulcers are now known to be caused by a slender, spiral–shaped bacterium, Helicobacter pylori, or H. pylori. The resilient organism, found in the stomachs of one fourth of American adults, is believed to spread from person to person by food or water contaminated by fecal matter. Microbiologists at St. Elizabeth's Medical Center in Boston recently demonstrated that the common housefly can become a reservoir of H. pylori, carrying the organism on its skin and in its intestinal tract and passing the bacterium on in its excretions. One does not have to be a scientist to envision a likely mode of transmission. Houseflies lay eggs, develop and feed on excrement — human or otherwise — then often land on unprotected food, where they might deposit the troublesome organism and pass it along to an unsuspecting consumer. If that mode of transmission is correct, it would partly explain why H. pylori infection is most common in poor countries. Indoor plumbing, refrigeration and modern sanitation are often lacking, and H. pylori infection is nearly universal. A Common Bug How H. pylori is transmitted is only one of several unsolved mysteries about a bacterium that should become as familiar to people as E. coli, salmonella and pneumococcus."

Dundon Marina de Bernard Cesare Montecucco Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/S1438-4221 (01)80002-3 Get rights and content Abstract To date a number of virulence factors have been identified and characterised from the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori. The vacuolating toxin (Vac A) is a major determinant of H. pylori -associated gastric disease. In non-polarised cells, Vac A alters the endocytic pathway, resulting in the release of acid hydrolases and the reduction of both extracellular ligand degradation and antigen processing. The toxin forms trans-membrane anion-specific channels and reduces the transepithelial electrical resistance of polarized monolayers. Localization of the Vac A channels in acidic intracellular compartments causes osmotic swelling which, together with membrane fusion, leads to vacuole formation. The neutrophil-activating protein of H. pylori (HP-NAP) induces the production of oxygen radicals in human neutrophils via a cascade of intracellular activation events which may contribute to the damage of the stomach mucosa. This protein has recently been shown to be an important antigen in the human immune response to H. pylori infection. In addition, mice vaccinated with recombinant HP-NAP were protected against H. pylori challenge. H. pylori strains that are associated with severe tissue damage and inflammation possess the cag pathogenicity island that contains several genes encoding factors involved in the induction of proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines and of a type IV secretion system involved in the delivery of a highly immunogenic protein, Cag A, into eukaryotic cells. Recent advances in our understanding of the involvement of Vac A, HP-NAP and the Cag A/Type IV secretion system in the H. pylori -associated disease process are discussed in this review."

"text": "Normal Function The AR gene provides instructions for making a protein called an androgen receptor. Androgens are hormones (such as testosterone) that are important for normal male sexual development before birth and during puberty. Androgen receptors allow the body to respond appropriately to these hormones. The receptors are present in many of the body's tissues, where they attach (bind) to androgens. The resulting androgen-receptor complex then binds to DNA and regulates the activity of androgen-responsive genes. By turning the genes on or off as necessary, the androgen receptor helps direct the development of male sexual characteristics. Androgens and androgen receptors also have other important functions in both males and females, such as regulating hair growth and sex drive. In one region of the AR gene, a DNA segment known as CAG is repeated multiple times. This CAG segment is called a triplet or trinucleotide repeat. In most people, the number of CAG repeats in the AR gene ranges from fewer than 10 to about 36."

It was identified in 1982 by Australian scientists Barry Marshall and Robin Warren, who found that it was present in a person with chronic gastritis and gastric ulcers, conditions not previously believed to have a microbial cause. It is also linked to the development of duodenal ulcers and stomach cancer. However, over 80% of individuals infected with the bacterium are asymptomatic, and it may play an important role in the natural stomach ecology. [ 7]More than 50% of the world's population have H. pylori in their upper gastrointestinal tract. [ 6] Infection is more common in developing countries than Western countries.

Not only do bird keepers love this intelligent bird, it’s one of the most recognizable species to bird novices as well — everyone knows the African grey parrot. This parrot is one of the oldest psitticine species kept by humans, with records of the bird dating back to biblical times. Understated beauty and a brainy no-nonsense attitude are what keep this parrot at the peak of popularity. At first glance, the African grey is a medium-sized, dusty-looking gray bird, almost pigeon-like — but further investigation reveals a bright red tail, intelligent orange eyes, and a stunning scalloped pattern to its plumage. Native Region / Natural Habitat The Timneh African grey (or TAG for short) is smaller than the more popular Congo African grey (CAG). It has a darker gray body, nearly black, with a horn-colored beak, and its tail ranges in color from maroon to dark gray or black. African grey parrots generally inhabit savannas, coastal mangroves, woodland and edges of forest clearings in their West and Central Africa range. Though the larger of the African grey subspecies is referred to as the Congo African grey, this bird actually has a much wider natural range in Africa, including the southeastern Ivory Coast, Kenya, and Tanzania. The Timneh African grey is found in a smaller region along the western edge of the Ivory Coast and through southern Guinea."

"text": "To avoid a gas guzzler tax, Chevrolet came up with an innovative (and annoying) gizmo called CAGS. CAGS forces you to shift your manual transmission Corvette from first to fourth under light acceleration. It never causes a problem when you're pegging it but is a pain when you forget to mash the throttle to the floor. Fortunately, there is a simple fix. Many people sell the CAGS eliminator kits. They're simply a little harness that plugs in to where the CAGS solenoid wiring harness would usually go. The harness eliminates error codes being written to the computers log. To install, just carefully jack up the rear of the car and support it on jack stands. Crawl underneath and locate the CAGS wiring harness on the left side of the transmission. Unplug the harness and install the CAGS eliminator on the end."

Virtually everyone who has driven a 6 speed '97-'04 Corvette has experienced this annoying system that often occurs at the worst possible time - under light acceleration from a stop, when you really need 2nd gear the most. The CAGS-SKIP eliminates this CAGS (computer aided gear selection) skip shift function, and allows you to shift however and whenever you want!. The CAGS-SKIP disconnects the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) from the skip shift solenoid and from the instrument panel 1-4 shift light, and reliably and safely substitutes signals that prevent the generation of error codes. In other words, your car thinks nothing has changed, but you'll never see or feel the original CAGS system again!The CAGS-SKIP makes 3 connections to your Corvette: A fused connection to the positive post on the underhood fuse panel. A terminal that replaces an OEM terminal in a connector that disables the skip-shift solenoid. A CAGS-SKIP wire spliced to a wire located beneath the underhood fuse panel. The CAGS-SKIP installation DOES NOT require raising your Corvette and crawling underneath to access the connector on the transmission! The CAGS-SKIP is easily installed under the hood, next to the battery. The CAGS-SKIP and its installation have been designed to be as easy and foolproof as possible. No permanent modifications are made to your Corvette to disable the 1-4 shift solenoid, and to allow uninterrupted upshifting."

These disorders include insulin resistance, elevated cholesterol levels and high blood pressure. You’ll also see there’s an association between Cag A H pylori and heart disease itself. When I say heart disease I specifically refer to a narrowing of the arteries known as atherosclerosis (which can also happen in the carotid arteries, eventually causing strokes).

Immediately following my birth in 1987 Kaitlyn became very popular (spelled many different ways- Caitlin, Kaitlin, Katelynn, etc.) As a result I have known many many many people with my name. However, I do like that the name stayed popular for a long period of time (still fairly popular today) because at least its not one of those names rooted in a time period (like Kelly, Brittany, etc)I generally go by Kait, NEVER Katie because I'm not really the cutesy soft spoken type. Overall I think Kaitlyn is a decent name, just not very unique."

With his life changed forever by the tragedy, Barry was taken in and raised by Detective Joe West, the father of Barry’s best friend, Iris. Now, Barry has become a brilliant, driven and endearingly geeky CSI investigator, whose determination to uncover the truth about his mother’s strange death leads him to follow up on every unexplained urban legend and scientific advancement that comes along. Barry’s latest obsession is a cutting edge particle accelerator, created by visionary physicist Harrison Wells and his S. T. A. R.

She specializes in bio-engineering and helped study Barry Allen while he was in a coma. She has a somewhat cold demeanor, which Barry points out, and she reveals that her fiancée was killed the night of the particle accelerator accident. She’s hesitant to believe what Barry is telling them about his abilities, and is astonished when she sees him in action. Caitlin finally smiles at the end when Barry is able to defeat the bad guy. While Barry was in a coma, she was also trying to help Felicity Smoak in regard to coming up with a cure for the Mirakuru. Caitlin is annoyed when she finds out that Barry’s been out helping people and Cisco has been assisting him, thinking that they all need to be focused on finding other “metahumans”.

"text": "Nov 05Oklahoma Overtime and Salary Can an Oklahoma employer legally pay every worker a salary, to avoid paying overtime? No. This is covered by federal law, not state law in Oklahoma. An employer can put all the employees on a salary, in order to make processing payroll easier. However, most employees will still be entitled to overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act or FLSA. The FLSA specifies that employees who work more than 40 hours per week are entitled to be paid 1.5 times their usual hourly rate for each hour of overtime. An employee who is paid a salary less than $455 per week, is automatically entitled to overtime, regardless of his or her job responsibilities. ( The only exceptions: this does not apply to outside sales people, teachers or employees who practice law or medicine. ) Employees with certain duties, who earn more than $455 per week, are exempt from the FLSA overtime laws. These include executives and managers who have significant decision-making responsibilities."

The name was brought to the British Isles in the Middle Ages by way of the Norman French version, Cateline. The Catherine family of names all derives from the Greek “Aikaterinë” (see Catherine) which translates to “pure one, clear, innocent.” The name was borne by an early saint who was martyred in Egypt and came to be associated with courage and purity, qualities that were attractive to the Celts. In Ireland, the Celtic version, Caitlín, proved popular and gave rise to the anglicized versions of K/Cathleen in England. The Irish legend of the Countess of Cathleen was put to pen by William Butler Yeats in 1892. Story goes that during a famine, the beautiful and fair-haired young countess offered her soul to the devil in exchange for food for the starving. Upon her death, the devil came to collect his due, but God interceded so Cathleen could go straight to heaven, so impressed was He that she would not only sacrifice her life, but her very salvation, for others. Popularity of the Name Katelyn Currently in America, Katelyn is the second most popular spelling of the traditional Caitlín; the first being “Kaitlyn.” Katelyn (as a spelling variant) first enters the U. S. popularity charts in 1981, so it was actually the first made-up spelling of the traditional Irish Caitlin."

As it turned out, Garrick was really the villain Zoom, and he kidnapped Caitlin and took her to Earth-2, where she formed a shaky alliance with her counterpart Killer Frost. The two nearly escaped Zoom's prison, but they were caught and Killer Frost was killed and Caitlin was taken to the Central City Police Department as a captive. She eventually talked Zoom into allowing her to leave, and she then resumed her place at S. T. A. R. Labs, and helped The Flash take Zoom down."

She is one of the many spelling variations on the now-exhaustive list of Kaylees in the United States. Presumably Kaylee is derived from similar sounding Irish names such as Caitlin, Keela or Keelin. Caitlin is the Gaelic equivalent of Catherine. Keelin comes from the Gaelic “Caoilfhinn” (pronounced kale + in) which translates into “slender” (caol) and “white, fair, pure” (finn). Keela, on the other hand, comes from the Gaelic word “cadhla” which means a girl “so beautiful that only poets can describe her.” The names Kaylee, Kayleigh and Kayley are of such recent origin that it’s difficult to ascertain the true etymological elements, particularly since it occurs in so many different spelling variations. Most likely, Kaylee/Kaleigh developed from the popularity of the “Kay” sounding prefix along with the common “lee” suffix. In essence, there really is no meaning behind Kaleigh other than the fact some American parents simply like the sound of it. Popularity of the Name Kaleigh Not only does Kaleigh have a ton of competition from her other “Kaylee” sisters in terms of spelling choices, but she also gets lost among the many other female names similar to her pronunciation."

Then, for good measure, a closing tag teased big, hairy things to come. RELATED The CW Renews Arrow, Supernatural, The 100, Reign, Jane and 3 Others I admittedly had tempered expectations for the “Peek-a-Boo” character, as Caitlin dubbed her (“Can’t I name one ?”), but she was another good example of a metahuman who distinctly neutered Barry’s own abilities. Instead, it was again up to the S. T. A. R. Labs team to find the particular Kryptonite for this baddie, here being darkness (so she can’t see where she is “going”). I also forgot that I’m a sucker for nifty teleportation effects, be it X-Men, Harry Potter or this show that used to be on TV called The Tomorrow People. Alas for poor Peek-a-Boo aka Shawna, her OTL Clay Parker, whom she sprung from the clink, bailed on her in the end, leaving her to claim an empty cell in the S. T. A. R. Labs Pipeline. Speaking of….

This means that potassium can't leave the cell anymore, which depolarises the membrane and causes voltage-gated calcium channels to open and release calcium into the cell to trigger insulin release. I don't understand why this happens, because both potassium and calcium being positively charged. Wouldn't this depolarise the membrane even more?

Posted By: Katrina Cain on: January 12, 2010 In: Anatomy, Better Know a Body, Biology No Comments Print Email Share 0 Tweet Share 0 Share 0 Share 1Tweet Your thyroid is a butterfly-shaped organ that lies across the cartilage of your neck above the collar bone. The role of the thyroid is to stimule metabolism and along with the parathyroid glands ( beside or near thyroid), controls the body’s circulating calcium levels. The thyroid produces T3 and T4; triiodothyronine and thyroxine for those of you who like wordy words as well as calcitonin. As their name suggests, both T3 and T4 use iodine, and their numbers refer to how many iodine molecules are attached to the structure. Detailed and easy to understand information about the thyroid is hard elusive and I find myself having to refer to my anatomy and physiology textbooks to provide the best answer. Your thyroid has two different kinds of follicle cells – cells that secrete hormones: follicular cells and parafollicular cells. Your follicular cells produce T3 and T4. Your pituitary gland is located in your brain and secretes, among other things Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (if it is a stimulating hormone, it comes from your pituitary gland). TSH tells your thyroid to make T3 and T4 which travel to every cell in your body and stimulate those cells to produce protein or increase oxygen usage."

The list of foods they consume is quite long--too long for this article, which is more geared towards feeding these creatures in captivity, not the wild (see the links near the end of the article for specific food ideas). However, the list of native foods these tortoises eat does teach us some things about their diet. One is that it is extremely varied (over 200 species of plant consumed), and it also varies significantly over range (some foods exist in some locations, but not in others). It also tells us there is a LOT of fiber in tortoise food, along with a LOT of calcium. There is also a pretty low level of protein in their diets (though some foods do contain quite a bit of protein), and there is absolutely not any dog food or iceberg lettuce in a native tortoise diet (unlike what this poor tortoise to the right here is eating in a local nature preserve). Studies also tell us most of these foods are not available year-round, or often no more than a few weeks or so, so diet changes are a yearly or even monthly experience for most wild desert tortoises. But one thing these studies do NOT tell us is if all the foods these animal naturally consume on their own are actually good for them. There are a number of well-known toxic plants on the food items desert tortoises naturally consume. Do we assume then that these food items are okay for tortoises, or that they are acceptable errors… or that tortoises are simply opportunists and eat whatever comes along their way?"

"text": "What Is Calcium Bicarbonate?by SIRAH DUBOIS Oct. 03, 2017Calcium bicarbonate is not a naturally occurring solid, but it does form in water when calcium, carbonate and bicarbonate ions are dissolved with carbon dioxide. This commonly happens within rivers, streams, lakes and well water because of the water's exposure to the air and its contact with rocks and sediment that contain minerals and metals. Water with calcium bicarbonate is healthy to drink because of the mineral content and alkalizing affect, although it can cause build-up in your bathroom and kitchen and be difficult to clean. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Calcium Bicarbonate Water with high calcium bicarbonate content is often referred to as “hard water” because of the scale it leaves in pipes and sinks. It also reacts with soap to form “soap scum” in your shower and bathtub. Water filters, such as reverse osmosis systems, filter out minerals and dramatically reduce the calcium bicarbonate content in water. This may be convenient for a clean bathroom, but minerals are essential to your body and they have alkalizing properties. Confusion with Sodium Bicarbonate Calcium bicarbonate is sometimes confused with sodium bicarbonate, which is an antacid used for short-term relief of heartburn, indigestion and various stomach problems. Sodium bicarbonate injections are sometimes indicated in the treatment of metabolic acidosis, which is an acidifying of your tissues due to kidney disease, uncontrolled diabetes, circulatory problems, anoxia, severe dehydration, severe diarrhea, drug overdose and some other diseases and conditions, according to the book “Medical Biochemistry: Human Metabolism in Health and Disease” by Miriam D. Rosenthal. Calcium Carbonate Calcium bicarbonate should also be differentiated from calcium carbonate, which is commonly used as a calcium supplement because of its high percentage of elemental calcium, as explained by Benjamin Caballero, author of the “Guide to Nutritional Supplements.”"

Calcium ions have a key role in triggering the release of packaged transmitter at the amphibian neuromuscular junction and of the chromaffin granules at the adrenal medulla. It is suggested that (i) proteins on the vesicle and plasma membranes are of particular importance in promoting membrane fusion and exocytosis (ii) they may be divalent cation-stimulated ATPases, which form the calcium-binding sites or have a specific calcium-binding protein in close molecular apposition (iii) these ATPases in synaptic vesicles and chromaffin granules also generate a protonmotive force which is associated with the uptake of transmitter (iv) the osmotic properties of the vesicle may be important during fission, but it is not suggested that chemiosmotic effects are involved in Ca2+-triggered fusion (v) the action of calcium is markedly co-operative (vi) the adrenal medullary cell and the n.m.j. may differ in the Ca2+-binding site; there is evidence for the involvement of calmodulin in granule-plasmalemma fusion in the chromaffin cells, but not at present (surprisingly) for a role of this Ca2+-binding protein at the n.m.j. ( vii) exocytosis requires Mg ATP (viii) phosphorylation of the ATPase may well be involved; phosphorylation via c AMP does not seem to be involved in fusion in either system (ix) the ATPase may undergo configurational changes during exocytosis and is markedly sensitive to the physical state of its phospholipid environment and to the oxidation of its -SH groups.

"text": "\"At the neuromuscular junction, the nerve fiber is able to transmit a signal to the muscle fiber by releasing ACh (and other substances), causing muscle contraction. Muscles will contract or relax when they receive signals from the nervous system. The neuromuscular junction is the site of the signal exchange. The steps of this process in vertebrates occur as follows: (1) The action potential reaches the axon terminal. ( 2) Voltage-dependent calcium gates open, allowing calcium to enter the axon terminal. ( 3) Neurotransmitter vesicles fuse with the presynaptic membrane and ACh is released into the synaptic cleft via exocytosis. ( 4) ACh binds to postsynaptic receptors on the sarcolemma. ( 5) This binding causes ion channels to open and allows sodium ions to flow across the membrane into the muscle cell.

[ 1] Its name is derived from its chemical structure: it is an ester of acetic acid and choline. Parts in the body that use or are affected by acetylcholine are referred to as cholinergic. Substances that interfere with acetylcholine activity are called anticholinergics. Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter used at the neuromuscular junction —in other words, it is the chemical that motor neurons of the nervous system release in order to activate muscles. This property means that drugs that affect cholinergic systems can have very dangerous effects ranging from paralysis to convulsions. Acetylcholine is also used as a neurotransmitter in the autonomic nervous system, both as an internal transmitter for the sympathetic nervous system and as the final product released by the parasympathetic nervous system. [ 1]In the brain, acetylcholine functions as a neurotransmitter and as a neuromodulator. The brain contains a number of cholinergic areas, each with distinct functions."

"text": "\"share tweet email print Myasthenia Gravis History Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is a chronic autoimmune disorder of neuromuscular transmission resulting in muscle weakness. The term \"\"myasthenia\"\" is Latin for muscle weakness, and \"\"gravis\"\" for grave or serious. Thomas Willis first described a patient with MG in 1672. There were other sporadic case descriptions over the years and in 1900, Campbell and Bramwell collected 60 cases of MG from the literature. Still the cause of the disease remained a mystery, until 1960 when Simpson proposed that myasthenia gravis was caused by antibodies against the acetylcholine receptor. In 1973 Patrick and Lindstrom demonstrated that MG is autoimmune in origin by showing that rabbits immunized with Torpedo acetylcholine receptor became myasthenic. Today, MG is one of the most thoroughly understood neurological disorders, which has lead to treatments which vastly improve the length and quality of life of myasthenics. Clinical Presentation Epidemiology The incidence of MG is 5 -10 cases per million population per year, which results in a prevalence in the US of 25,000 cases. MG is considered a sporadic disease, meaning that it seems to strike at random and it does not run in families. There is no racial predominance, but in people who present with MG at < 40 years old, 75% are women."

The muscular system, in vertebrates, is controlled through the nervous system, although some muscles, like cardiac muscle, can be completely autonomous. Muscle is contractile tissue and is derived from the mesodermal layer of embryonic germ cells. Its function is to produce force and cause motion, either locomotion or movement within internal organs. Much of muscle contraction occurs without conscious thought and is necessary for survival, like the contraction of the heart or peristalsis, which pushes food through the digestive system. Voluntary muscle contraction is used to move the body and can be finely controlled, such as movements of the finger or gross movements that of the biceps and triceps. Muscle structure Muscle is composed of muscle cells (sometimes known as \"\"muscle fibers\"\"). Within the cells are myofibrils; myofibrils contain sarcomeres which are composed of actin and myosin. Individual muscle cells are lined with endomysium. Muscle cells are bound together by perimysium into bundles called fascicles."

"text": "Complexity of the Glia Neuromuscular Junction December 14, 2014Most of us take bodily movement for granted. But, in fact, it is a very complex collaboration of many different systems—the long nerves of the pyramidal system, the fine-tuning of the extrapyramidal system and constant sensory feedback. The partnership of nerve and muscle occurs at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). Recent research shows that that the orchestration of the process that builds a NMJ is extremely complex with elaborate cross talk between the neuron, the muscle and a special glial cell—the peri synaptic Schwann cell (PSC). The complexity of the glia neuromuscular junction,in its final arrangement, includes a perfect alignment of neurotransmitter release sites, clusters of receptors on the muscle and glia processes. Motor neurons grow huge lengths to reach their final targets. In the adult, motor neurons extend from the spinal cord to the toe with axons as long as a yard. Axons are guided to their exact positions by elaborate signaling from glia and the extracellular space. The final NMJ appears simple, but its formation requires elaborate back and forth signaling. This communication tunes the junction for the precise amount of neurotransmission to meet the muscles’ capacity."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Isokinetic)navigation search See also: Twitch (disambiguation) and Tremor Hierarchical organization of skeletal muscle Contractions of skeletal muscles allow vertebrate animals such as frogs to move Muscle contractions underlie movement Muscle contraction is the activation of tension -generating sites within muscle fibers. [ 1] [2] In physiology, muscle contraction does not necessarily mean muscle shortening because muscle tension can be produced without changes in muscle length such as holding a heavy book or a dumbbell at the same position. [ 1] The termination of muscle contraction is followed by muscle relaxation, which is a return of the muscle fibers to their low tension-generating state. [ 1]Muscle contractions can be described based on two variables: length and tension. [ 1] A muscle contraction is described as isometric if the muscle tension changes but the muscle length remains the same. [ 1] [3] [4] [5] In contrast, a muscle contraction is isotonic if muscle length changes but the muscle tension remains the same. [ 1] [3] [4] [5] If the muscle length shortens, the contraction is concentric; [1] [6] if the muscle length lengthens, the contraction is eccentric. In natural movements that underlie locomotor activity, muscle contractions are multifaceted as they are able to produce changes in length and tension in a time-varying manner. [ 7] Therefore, neither length nor tension is likely to remain the same in muscles that contract during locomotor activity. In vertebrates, skeletal muscle contractions are neurogenic as they require synaptic input from motor neurons to produce muscle contractions."

The slang term \"\"stiff\"\", used to refer to a dead person, originates from rigor mortis. Within hours of the time of death, every muscle in the body contracts and remains contracted for a period of time.

"text": "Previous Next Acetylcholine - Effects Acetylcholine has muscarinic and nicotinic effects by stimulation of the corresponding receptors. Muscarinic effects Muscarinic effects thus called because they resemble those of muscarine, compound extracted from a mushroom, and result from stimulation of muscarinic receptors. There are several types of muscarinic receptors M1, M2, M3, M4 and M5, coupled to G proteins. Schematically, M1 and M3 receptors are coupled to phospholipase C which induces a rise of inositol-triphosphate, IP3, diacylglycerol, DAG, and of Ca2+; M2 receptors are coupled to K+ channels and to adenylcyclase whose activity they reduce. Endogenous acetylcholine has peripheral muscarinic effects, the best known, and central ones. Muscarinic effects are inhibited by atropine. Cardiac effects The cholinergic innervation of auricles is much more important than that of the myocardium. An injection of acetylcholine or the stimulation of the parasympathetic induces: Bradycardia, even transitory discontinuation of heart beats (vagal escape) by sinus effect.decrease of atrioventricular conduction.decrease of the strength of atrium contractions. Cardiac slowing is explained at least partly by cellular hyperpolarisation resulting from opening of potassium channels linked to the G proteins and potassium exit out of the cell, inducing an increase in polarization. The decrease of the force of contraction comes from a decrease of Ca2+ entry in the cell, probably by inhibition of adenylcyclase."

Key points Neuromuscular blocking drugs (NMBDs) act at several sites at the neuromuscular junction, but their main effects are as agonists and antagonists at postjunctional nicotinic receptors. Succinylcholine is the only available depolarizing NMBD; it has several undesirable side-effects. Less potent non-depolarizing NMBDs have a more rapid onset of action, comparable with succinylcholine. Aminosteroid NMBDs depend on organ function for metabolism and excretion. They can have active metabolites. Benzylisoquinolinium compounds undergo organ-independent degradation but tend to release histamine. A short-acting non-depolarizing NMBD with a rapid onset and short duration of effect is required to replace succinylcholine. Structure of NMBDs All the NMBDs available in the UK are quaternary ammonium compounds. They are structurally related to acetylcholine (ACh), which contains a quaternary nitrogen group (N + (CH 3) 3 )."

Their point of connection is called a neuromuscular junction.2nd step of skeletal muscle contraction At the junction, acetylcholine vesicles are released.3rd step of skeletal muscle contraction Acetylcholine binds to its receptor on the sarcolemme causing Na+ influx into the muscle fiber, generating an action potential within the muscle fiber.4th step of skeletal muscle contraction The action potential travels through the T-tubules, allowing calcium channels to open and release calcium into the cytoplasm.5th step of skeletal muscle contraction Calcium ions activate the actin-myosin binding sites and cross-bridges for between the actin and the myosin heads.6th step of skeletal muscle contraction An ATP is hydrolyzed to provide energy for flexing the myosin heads.7th step of skeletal muscle contraction Flexion brings the actin filaments closer to the middle of the sarcomere. The overall length of the sarcomere is shorter; contracted.8th step of skeletal muscle contraction In order for relaxation to occur, ATP must be used to pump calcium back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum.sarcomere one of the segments into which a myofibril is divided: smallest function unit in muscle tissuemyofilament contractile proteins which interact to cause contractionactin thin filamentsmyosin thick filaments Z-line makes a \"\"z\"\"; not a line, really a wall; the border between sarcomeres Antagonistic action of skeletal muscles?

The bones of our skeletal system provide a framework of support for the body. Bones of the skull, vertebral column, and ribs protect our vital organs. Bones of the upper and lower limbs provide scaffolding and attachment points for muscles, allowing movement. Describe the macroscopic structure of a typical long bone, using the following terms: Diaphysis, epiphyses, metaphyses, medullary cavity, endosteum, periosteum. A long bone, such as the humerus in the upper arm, has several distinctive regions and characteristics: The diaphysis is the shaft, or body. It contains a hollow cavity called the medullary cavity The metaphyses are on either end of the diaphysis. The epiphyses are the ends of the bone."

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

Because of this, what I’ve decided to do is to write some articles that discuss the different roles of each of the vitamins and minerals in the body, and since this website focuses on thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions, I figured it would be a good idea to briefly discuss how they relate to thyroid health. This article will focus on the importance of calcium.99% of the calcium in the body is stored in the bones. This includes the teeth. The remaining calcium is in the bloodstream. While most people are aware of the benefits of calcium with regards to bone health, many are unfamiliar with the other roles calcium plays in the body. To be frank, there is so much to write about calcium that it would be impossible to discuss everything about this mineral in a single article. So I’m going to focus on some of the more important functions of this mineral, as well as discuss the biochemistry. And I will also briefly talk about how it relates to thyroid health. With regards to bone health, calcium is of course very important to maintain strong and healthy bones."

This article will discuss the causes, testing methods and treatments available for prevention and reversal of Osteoporosis. For many years, I used to think that Osteoporosis was a calcium deficiency disease. However, this is not really true. The reality is that we get plenty of calcium in our diet and the real problem is actually excess calcium loss due to our American Diet and Lifestyle. Simply put, our diet is the culprit. For example, soda pop, refined foods and animal protein promotes bone loss. According to Dr T. Colin Campbell from Cornell, there is considerable evidence for this, and the solution is to eat more fruits and vegetables and less animal protein. According to Dr. Susan Brown, dietary factors which influence acid-alkaline balance determines this rate of calcium loss from the bones. An acidic diet high in animal protein will cause loss of calcium."

Getty Images/grecosvet Metabolic bone disease (MBD) is a well recognized and all too common disease often seen in our pet reptiles. Other terms which may be used include fibrous osteodystrophy, osteomalacia, secondary nutritional hyperparathyroidism, osteoporosis, and rickets. There is no single cause of MBD and the disease is not as simple as calcium deficiency. However, the primary problem is a disruption of calcium metabolism which causes a host of related problems. MBD is almost always a result of poor husbandry but it is also generally preventable by providing a proper environment and diet specific for your type of reptile. This is not always easy or inexpensive for a reptile owner to do but is vital to the health of all pet reptiles. Causes of Metabolic Bone Disease Metabolic bone disease is a complex disease. In it's simplest of terms, metabolic bone disease results from an improper calcium to phosphorus ratio in the body. Normally, this ratio should be around two parts calcium and one part phosphorus (2:1)."

The joint cavity is cushioned by articular cartilage covering the head of the humerus and face of the glenoid. The scapula extends up and around the shoulder joint at the rear to form a roof called the acromion, and around the shoulder joint at the front to form the coracoid process. The end of the scapula, called the glenoid, meets the head of the humerus to form a glenohumeral cavity that acts as a flexible ball-and-socket joint. The joint is stabilized by a ring of fibrous cartilage surrounding the glenoid called the labrum. Ligaments connect the bones of the shoulder, and tendons join the bones to surrounding muscles. The biceps tendon attaches the biceps muscle to the shoulder and helps to stabilize the joint. Four short muscles originate on the scapula and pass around the shoulder where their tendons fuse together to form the rotator cuff. All of these components of your shoulder, along with the muscles of your upper body, work together to manage the stress your shoulder receives as you extend, flex, lift and throw.

"text": "Understanding Calcium: The Best Forms of Calcium Supplementsby Dr. Edward Group DC, NP, DACBN, DCBCN, DABFMLast Updated on December 17, 2015We have all heard about how important calcium is for maintaining healthy bones, muscles and nerves. We also may be aware of the role calcium plays in inter-cellular communications. But many are unaware that the common American daily diet is not offering enough calcium. Sadly, this calcium that is lacking from our diet is then slowly leeched from the bones, creating a plethora of joint and bone-related diseases such as osteoporosis. Many people realize that they need more calcium, and make the conscious choice to take calcium supplements, but are still unaware of the different forms of calcium being sold on the market today. Which forms of supplements are actually being absorbed by the body? Which types of calcium actually make their way into penetrating the cellular membrane? Hopefully this will help you understand the different types of calcium currently on the supplemental market.8 Common Types of Calcium1. Calcium Carbonate A common form of calcium supplement, calcium carbonate is an alkaline-based compound found in rocks, limestone, shells of marine animals, pearls, eggshells and snails. It holds one of the highest concentrations of elemental calcium (35-40%), but is not high in bioavailability and requires the production of extra stomach acid to be absorbed."

This could mean that the use of supplements to \"\"prevent\"\" osteoporosis must now be reconsidered. The practice may be causing an epidemic of cardiovascular calcification, hypertonicity of the cardiac tissue, arrhythmias, and heart attacks both through heart muscle cramping and destabilized plaque and subsequent occlusion. According to the study, as reported by Green Med Info:“Calcium supplements ... increase the risk of cardiovascular events, especially myocardial infarction ... A reassessment of the role of calcium supplements in osteoporosis management is warranted. ”Dr. Mercola's Comments: For many years, the general medical industry has been pushing calcium supplements as your primary form of \"\"insurance\"\" against osteoporosis, reciting the mantra \"\"calcium builds strong bones and teeth,\"\" far and wide. Calcium is added to everything these days, from pasteurized milk to baby formula, orange juice, and boxed foods like breakfast cereals. And certainly, your body does need calcium. In fact, calcium from whole foods may even extend your lifespan. But this is NOT the case for calcium supplements."

What you may not know is that calcium is required for every cell of the body to function in a healthy way. Besides acting as a cellular cement for bones, calcium is used by nerves and muscles, and it also contributes to proper blood clotting. Here’s an overview of where and why you need calcium: You need calcium for healthy bones and teeth Just as lime is necessary for strong concrete, calcium is needed for strong bones. Calcium is continually deposited into multiplying bone cells, like the cement that holds together the particles of stone and sand in a chunk of concrete. The stronger the bone development during childhood, the healthier those bones will be in adulthood. That is, the stronger the foundation, the sturdier the eventual building.

Most people associate calcium with the consumption of cow’s milk, although recent research reveals a different story. Although homogenized and pasteurized milk does have high amounts of this important mineral, it is not well absorbed or utilized in the body. Milk products often contain high levels of toxins like bovine growth hormones and antibiotics. The good news is that there are many other great foods that are high in calcium easy to incorporate into your daily diet. I must note however that raw organic goat or cow milk is a good source of calcium. Foods High in Calcium Length: 3 minutes11 Foods High in Calcium: What Are They?1. Sesame Seeds These white little seed-wonders are very high in calcium, as well as other important vitamins and minerals. Raw sesame seeds possess almost 1000 mg of calcium per 100g serving.

"text": "\"............................................................................................................... January 28, 2013 by MARCO TORRESWhy Do Humans Still Drink Milk? Perhaps because the government tells us to. Today's processed milk is far from healthy and is essentially a dead liquid, devoid of any real nutritional value. Raw milk is a step up in nutrition since it's not put through the violent heating stages of its conventional counterpart and retains the nutrient values that nature intended. However, do we really need to drink any milk of any kind from another species besides our own? It's a contentious topic, but most people don't stop to think about the fact that humans are the only animals that continue to drink milk after being weaned, and moreover from another animal. Raw milk drinkers definitely have an edge in the nutrition department as at least they drink a beverage which has the potential to prevent disease. Unlike conventional, pasteurized milk which can cause heart-disease and diabetes, raw milk can actually prevent these conditions. But raw milk drinkers should know their cows intimately before making consumer purchases of raw milk. For example, researchers have discovered that cows on organic dairy farms are healthier and less stressed than conventional cows, largely thanks to a more natural, forage-based diet instead of the grain and ground-up bones that usually pass as cattle feed on factory farms."

"text": "You are here: Home » Blog » Dietary Supplements » The Alarming Truth About Calcium Supplements The Alarming Truth About Calcium Supplements Posted on February 20th, 2012 by Elaine Rosales | 9 Comments »Many people take a calcium supplement because they believe that large doses of this mineral help “build” bones and protect against osteoporosis and bone fractures. Taking a calcium supplement may increase bone density, but did you know that this does not necessarily mean that your bones will be optimally healthy? What’s worse, some calcium supplements may even increase your risk of cancer and other health problems!Do You Really Need to Supplement with Calcium? Calcium is the most abundant mineral in your body. Aside from bone health, it is also needed to help regulate your heartbeat, stimulate hormone secretions, conduct nerve impulses, and ensure proper blood clotting. Your body does not produce calcium, but actually excretes it daily through your skin, nails, hair, sweat, urine, and feces. About 99 percent of your body’s calcium is stored in your bones and teeth. If you don’t get sufficient calcium, your body will get it from your bones to perform necessary functions. This is why people believe that supplementing with calcium can prevent calcium loss from their bones. However, this oversimplified theory actually leads to misinformation and health dangers."

They have nothing to do with the function of the thyroid. ( PARA is derived from a Greek word meaning beside, alongside of, by.). Very simply, these glands act as a type of thermostat or regulator that controls the blood level of calcium. It is essential to keep the blood level of calcium under tight control because calcium is needed inside just about every cell in the body in order to keep that cell functioning properly. When the blood level of calcium is too high or too low bad things can happen, even to the point of being life-threatening. Fortunately for most people, most of the time these parathyroid glands do their job very well. How does the parathyroid gland work? Attached to the cells of these parathyroid glands is a newly discovered molecule called the Calcium Sensing Receptor (Ca SR). This Ca SR responds to very small changes in the blood level of calcium to turn the parathyroid glands on and off when needed."

Share Email Feedback Sections Overview Pathophysiology of Calcium in the Coronary Arteries Types of CT Scanners Technique Results The Future Show All Media Gallery References Overview Since pathologists and anatomists first began examining the heart, they realized that a connection existed between deposits of calcium and disease. When x-rays were discovered, calcium was again recognized as a disease marker. In fact, for most of the 20th century, calcium, because of its density, was the only feature that stood out on radiographs of the heart. In the 1950s, heart disease became more recognized as a significant cause of mortality in the United States. Along with this recognition came numerous publications about the ability to detect calcifications in the coronary arteries with radiography. In some ways, this period can be thought of as the first age of importance for calcium detection in the heart. This period came to an end with the widespread acceptance of coronary angiography and other less invasive tests, such as stress thallium testing. If an actual stenosis or area of ischemia could be detected, attempts to qualitatively detect calcium with radiography or fluoroscopy seemed primitive. The advent of angioplasty and stent placement in the treatment of arterial stenoses seemed to herald the end of calcium detection. Why, then, should this or any other article present information about detecting calcification in the coronary arteries?"

The most common type of heart disease is coronary artery disease (CAD), narrowing of coronary arteries. These are the blood vessels that supply blood and oxygen to the heart. The condition is also called coronary heart disease (CHD). CAD is usually caused by atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is the buildup of plaque inside the coronary arteries. These plaques are made up of fatty deposits and fibrous tissue. With narrowed arteries, flow of oxygen-rich blood to heart muscle slows. At rest, blood supply might be sufficient.

The solution is to eliminate xenoestrogens, take a little Progesterone, and take some Magnesium. They are strange estrogens that have weird effects on the estrogen receptor.

You'll also be asked about any risk factors, including whether you have a family history of heart disease. There are several tests your doctor may order to help confirm whether you have angina: Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG). Each beat of your heart is triggered by an electrical impulse generated from special cells in your heart. An electrocardiogram records these electrical signals as they travel through your heart. Your doctor can look for patterns among these heartbeats to see if the blood flow through your heart has been slowed or interrupted or if you're having a heart attack. Stress test. Sometimes angina is easier to diagnose when your heart is working harder. During a stress test, you exercise by walking on a treadmill or pedaling a stationary bicycle. While exercising, your blood pressure is monitored and your ECG readings are watched."

People with angina experience pain in the centre of the chest. The chest can feel constricted and tight, but the pain can also be oppressive, as if something is crushing your chest. Pain starts in the centre of the chest behind the breast bone (sternum) or on the left side of the front of the chest. It can spread out to other parts of your body like your arms and stomach. Angina is brought on by:physical exercise, especially if the exercise occurs after a heavy meal or in cold weatheremotional stress, though usually only when the underlying problem is severe."

Cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is an imaging method that uses a computed tomography (CT) scanner to look at the structures and blood vessels of the heart. These scanners have been used to image blood vessels in other parts of the body for many years. The heart vessels (coronary arteries), however, are more difficult to view because they are small and move quite fast with the heartbeat. CT scanners are now fast enough and can image with enough detail to see the small moving coronary arteries very well. Prior to CCTA, to directly look at the blood vessels of the heart, one would have to undergo an invasive (inside the body) procedure called cardiac catheterization. CCTA is a non-invasive (outside the body) way to evaluate the blood vessels of the heart. In some situations a CCTA can be done instead of, or in addition to, a stress test. How is a CCTA the same as or different from a stress test? Both CCTA and a stress test may be used when more information about the heart is needed."

Angina pectoris—or simply angina—is chest pain or discomfort that keeps coming back. It happens when some part of your heart doesn't get enough blood and oxygen. Angina can be a symptom of coronary artery disease (CAD). This occurs when arteries that carry blood to your heart become narrowed and blocked because of atherosclerosis or a blood clot. It can also occur because of unstable plaques, poor blood flow through a narrowed heart valve, a decreased pumping function of the heart muscle, as well as a coronary artery spasm. There are 2 other forms of angina pectoris. They are: Variant angina pectoris (or Prinzmetal's angina)Microvascular angina Is rare Occurs almost only when you are at rest Often doesn't follow a period of physical exertion or emotional stress Can be very painful and usually occurs between midnight and 8 a.m. Is related to spasm of the artery Is more common in women Can be helped by medicines such as calcium channel blockers. These medicines help dilate the coronary arteries and prevent spasm."

It is initiated by the contraction of the ventricles of the heart. Ventricular contraction ejects blood into the major arteries, resulting in flow from regions of higher pressure to regions of lower pressure, as blood encounters smaller arteries and arterioles, then capillaries, then the venules and veins of the venous system. This section discusses a number of critical variables that contribute to blood flow throughout the body. It also discusses the factors that impede or slow blood flow, a phenomenon known as resistance. As noted earlier, hydrostatic pressure is the force exerted by a fluid due to gravitational pull, usually against the wall of the container in which it is located. One form of hydrostatic pressure is blood pressure, the force exerted by blood upon the walls of the blood vessels or the chambers of the heart. Blood pressure may be measured in capillaries and veins, as well as the vessels of the pulmonary circulation; however, the term blood pressure without any specific descriptors typically refers to systemic arterial blood pressure—that is, the pressure of blood flowing in the arteries of the systemic circulation. In clinical practice, this pressure is measured in mm Hg and is usually obtained using the brachial artery of the arm. Components of Arterial Blood Pressure Arterial blood pressure in the larger vessels consists of several distinct components: systolic and diastolic pressures, pulse pressure, and mean arterial pressure."

PATIENTS AND METHODSWe retrospectively identified patients who had abnormal results on electron beam computed tomography (coronary artery calcium score >0) and normal to low-risk results on SPECT (defined as a summed stress score of 0-3) within a 3-month period from January 1, 1995, to October 31, 2002. Of the 504 identified patients, 285 remained after exclusion criteria were applied. Of the 285 patients, 69 (mean ± SD age, 58.2±7.6 years; 91% male) underwent at least 1 repeated myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging study within 4 years of their initial assessment as normal or at low risk without recurrence of symptoms. The value of repeated SPECT imaging was assessed by detection of a substantial change in the repeated SPECT study and by documentation of a clinical event (death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or revascularization). Follow-up was 100% complete at a mean of 4.3±1.6 years. RESULTSOnly 4 patients (6%) had a substantial progression in their SPECT risk category; substantial changes on the SPECT scans occurred only in patients with a coronary artery calcium score greater than 100. Three patients underwent revascularization, yielding a 5-year rate for survival free of revascularization of 94% (95% confidence interval, 88%-100%). No deaths or nonfatal myocardial infarctions were reported. CONCLUSIONThe principal findings of this study indicate that asymptomatic patients with initial normal or low-risk results from stress SPECT performed because of abnormal coronary artery calcium scores who remain asymptomatic are at low risk of death, myocardial infarction, or coronary revascularization."

It is proportional to weight: the more mass an object has, the more weight it has. However, mass is not the same as weight. Weight is a force created by the action of gravity on a substance while mass is a measure of an object's resistance to change in motion. Mass is measured by comparing the substance of interest to a standard kilogram called the International Prototype Kilogram (IPK). The IPK is a metal cylinder for which the height and diameter both equal 39.17 millimeters and is made of an alloy of 90% platinum and 10% iridium.

A new study by University of Georgia professor Edward Kipreos suggests that changes in how people think about time dilation—the slowing of time predicted by Albert Einstein—can provide an alternate explanation of dark energy. In the recent Hollywood film \"\"Interstellar,\"\" a team of scientists travel through a wormhole in space to access planets with promising conditions to sustain life on Earth. One of the issues the team must grapple with is time dilation: each hour spent collecting data on a given planet is equal to seven years on Earth. Einstein's general theory of relativity indicates that time dilation in response to gravity is directional in that an object in high gravity will have slower time than an object in low gravity. In contrast, Einstein's theory of special relativity describes reciprocal time dilation between two moving objects, such that both moving objects' times appear to be slowed down relative to each other. The new paper makes the case that instead of being reciprocal, time dilation in response to movement is directional, with only the moving object undergoing time dilation. The study, \"\"Implication of an Absolute Simultaneity Theory for Cosmology and Universe Acceleration,\"\" was published Dec. 23 in the journal PLOS ONE. A molecular geneticist whose lab works on cell cycle regulation, Kipreos became interested in cosmology and the theory of special relativity several years ago. He says the phenomenon can be easily understood in the context of how Global Positioning System satellites work. \"\""

[ 1] [2]Common types of potential energy include the gravitational potential energy of an object that depends on its mass and its distance from the center of mass of another object, the elastic potential energy of an extended spring, and the electric potential energy of an electric charge in an electric field. The unit for energy in the International System of Units (SI) is the joule, which has the symbol J. The term potential energy was introduced by the 19th century Scottish engineer and physicist William Rankine, [3] [4] although it has links to Greek philosopher Aristotle 's concept of potentiality. Potential energy is associated with forces that act on a body in a way that the total work done by these forces on the body depends only on the initial and final positions of the body in space. These forces, that are called conservative forces, can be represented at every point in space by vectors expressed as gradients of a certain scalar function called potential. Since the work of potential forces acting on a body that moves from a start to an end position is determined only by these two positions, and does not depend on the trajectory of the body, there is a function known as potential or potential energy that can be evaluated at the two positions to determine this work.

The average relative atomic mass would be 1 amu * 0.10 + 5 amu * 0.90 = 4.6 amu So, if you knew that one of the isotopes was 1 amu and the average relative atomic mass is 4.6 amu, the other isotope must have a isotope mass greater than 4.6 amu. Likewise, if you knew one of the isotopes was 5 amu and the relative atomic mass of the element was 4.6 amu, you would know the other isotope has an atomic mass less than 4.6 amu in order for the math to work out."

Although not easy to understand, this last statement indirectly has a degree of truth but doesn't go anywhere near answering the all important question, \"\"How?\"\" and this website will try to offer an explanation. Unfortunately, my next statement may confuse rather than enlighten as the concept of dark energy has not yet been clearly defined and I may be guilty of hijacking the term. Curvature of spacetime is caused by the accelerating movement of dark energy. For me and for want of a better term, 'dark energy' best describes the intrinsic component responsible for the gravity effect. To start it may help if you have an insight into how matter is created and have at least some idea of what we believe dark energy actually is. In February 2016 physicists from the Ligo experiment annnounced the detection of gravitational waves which are described as ripples in spacetime. To make a ripple in spacetime is not at all difficult, just wave a lead weight about and you will modify spacetime enough to be able to detect it."

"text": "Next: Mass Transport Processes Up: CE251 Part I Previous: Introduction Mass and Energy Balances One of the fundamental laws of physics states that mass can neither be produced nor destroyed---that is, mass is conserved. Equally fundamental is the law of conservation of energy. Although energy can change in form, it can not be created or destroyed. These two laws of physics provide the basis for two tools which are used routinely in environmental engineering and science---the mass balance and the energy balance. This portion of the course deals with these tools. Mass balances are developed and applied in some detail in the following section, after which the concept of the energy balance is presented and applied. Mass Balance This principle of conservation of mass is extremely useful. It means that if the amount of a pollutant somewhere (say, in a lake) increases, then that increase cannot be the result of some ``magical'' formation out of nowhere. The pollutant must have been either carried into the lake from elsewhere or produced via chemical reaction from other compounds that were already in the lake. And, if chemical reactions produced the mass increase in our pollutant, they must also have caused a corresponding decrease in the mass of some other compounds."

Estimating Distances to Far-away Galaxies There are many different methods -- none of them very good -- which we can use to estimate the distance to far-away galaxies; or, more accurately, estimate the relative distances of a far-away galaxy and the LMC . All of our measurements of distant galaxies depend upon the distance to the LMC, which is used as a stepping-stone. So, if our distance to the LMC is uncertain by 10%, then every single distance to another galaxy will be uncertain by at least 10%. Remember that, whatever we use to measure these vast distances, it must be very luminous . Otherwise, we won't be able to see it in very distant galaxies, halfway across the universe. These methods fall into several different categories, but most of them make some assumptions about global properties of stars or galaxies (which are probably not true, on a case-by-case basis). \"\" Standard candles\"\"Globular cluster luminosity function Type Ia Supernovae Brightest cluster galaxy\"\"Galaxies are built to the same plan\"\"Surface-brightness fluctuations (SBF)Galaxy luminosity versus rotational velocity (Tully-Fisher)\"\"Basic physical principles\"\"Type II Supernovae Gravitational lenses Standard Candle methods Astronomers would like dearly to discover that there is some class of objects which all have exactly the same luminosity.

"text": "\"Confidence Intervals Author: Lisa Sullivan, Ph DProfessor of Biostatistics Boston University School of Public Health Introduction As noted in earlier modules a key goal in applied biostatistics is to make inferences about unknown population parameters based on sample statistics. There are two broad areas of statistical inference, estimation and hypothesis testing. Estimation is the process of determining a likely value for a population parameter (e.g., the true population mean or population proportion) based on a random sample. In practice, we select a sample from the target population and use sample statistics (e.g., the sample mean or sample proportion) as estimates of the unknown parameter. The sample should be representative of the population, with participants selected at random from the population. In generating estimates, it is also important to quantify the precision of estimates from different samples. Learning Objectives After completing this module, the student will be able to: Define point estimate, standard error, confidence level and margin of error Compare and contrast standard error and margin of error Compute and interpret confidence intervals for means and proportions Differentiate independent and matched or paired samples Compute confidence intervals for the difference in means and proportions in independent samples and for the mean difference in paired samples Identify the appropriate confidence interval formula based on type of outcome variable and number of samples Parameter Estimation There are a number of population parameters of potential interest when one is estimating health outcomes (or \"\"endpoints\"\"). Many of the outcomes we are interested in estimating are either continuous or dichotomous variables, although there are other types which are discussed in a later module. The parameters to be estimated depend not only on whether the endpoint is continuous or dichotomous, but also on the number of groups being studied. Moreover, when two groups are being compared, it is important to establish whether the groups are independent (e.g., men versus women) or dependent (i.e., matched or paired, such as a before and after comparison)."

Chad Baker/ Digital Vision/ Getty Imagesby Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph. D. Updated October 16, 2017The formula mass of a molecule (also known as formula weight) is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in the empirical formula of the compound. Formula weight is given in atomic mass units (amu). Example and Calculation The molecular formula for glucose is C 6 H 12 O 6, so the empirical formula is CH 2 O. The formula mass of glucose is (12)+2 (1)+16 = 30 amu. Relative Formula Mass Definition A related term you should know is relative formula mass (relative formula weight). This simply means the calculation is performed using relative atomic weight values for the elements, which are based on the natural isotopic ratio of elements found in the Earth's atmosphere and crust. Because relative atomic weight is a unitless value, relative formula mass technically does not have any units. However, grams are often used. When the relative formula mass is given in grams, then it is for 1 mole of a substance."

We can take a simple example of a leakage oil tank in the ocean then oil drops starts to float on the water due to their less density the water. This is useful for separation of oil from water. Generally the density of water is taken as standard value for calculating the density of substances. If a substance is less dense then it will float on water while it will sink in case of high dense than water.

One of the key points in simplifying vehicle physics is to handle the longtitudinal and lateral forces separately. Longtitudinal forces operate in the direction of the car body (or in the exact opposite direction). These are wheel force, braking force, rolling resistance and drag (= airresistance). Together these forces control the acceleration or deceleration of the car and therefore the speed of the car. Lateral forces allow the car to turn. These forces are caused by sideways friction on the wheels. We'll also have a look at the angular moment of the car and the torque caused by lateral forces. Notation and conventions Vectors are shown in bold, we'll be using 2d vectors. So the notation a = - b would translate to the following code snippet: a.x = -b.xa.y = -b.y Throughout this tutorial I'll be assuming that the rear wheels provide all the drive (for four wheel drives apply the neccesary adaptations)."

If asked \"\" What is an isotope ? \"\" in GCSE Chemistry, a more detailed answer is required using one of the definitions below Definitions of an isotope: Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Another way to say the same thing is: Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have the same atomic number ( whose symbol is \"\" Z \"\") but different mass numbers ( whose symbol is \"\" A \"\" ). It is useful to remember that: The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is the Atomic Number of that atom and defines which type of atom it is, that is - which element the atom is a particle of. The number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is the Mass Number (or \"\"Atomic Mass\"\") of the atom - the Atomic number of the atom = A-Z. How do different isotopes of the same element differ: Different isotopes (of the same element) have different numbers of neutrons in the nuclei of their atoms. Note: As isotopes are slightly different versions of the same element, it is not always necessary to specify \"\"isotopes of the same element \"\". When discussing the meaning and properties of isotopes in general, as on this page, the \"\"same element\"\" part may often be assumed.

An enormous magma chamber bulges up beneath the ground from the extremely high pressures of the trapped gases within. Ring-shaped cracks form outward from the magma chamber toward the surface and these act as relief valves for the magma to escape. Once the accumulated pressure has been sufficiently released through a serious of extremely powerful pyroclastic and plinian eruptions, the ground above the magma chamber subsides or caves in, leaving a large depression. Caldera volcanoes are the largest on earth, with some calderas measuring from 15 to 100 kilometers wide. Scientists are just beginning to understand these types of volcanoes and have only recently identified the characteristics of this type of eruption. Since this type of eruption has not occurred anytime during recorded history there have been no human witnesses to record observations of this type of event.

It has billowing volcanic geysers spewing sulfurous plumes to over 500 kilometers high. Its mountains are much taller than those on Earth , reaching heights of 16 kilometers (52,000 feet). Io orbits closer to Jupiter's cloud tops than the moon does to Earth. This places Io within an intense radiation belt that bathes the satellite with energetic electrons, protons, and heavier ions. As the Jovian magnetosphere rotates, it sweeps past Io and strips away about 1,000 kilograms (1 ton) per second of volcanic gases and other materials. This produces a neutral cloud of atoms orbiting with Io as well as a huge, doughnut shaped torus of ions that glow in the ultraviolet.

"text": "Reconstructing A Catastrophe: The Minoan Eruption Of Santorini By Gareth Fabbro | July 1st 2011 02:29 PM | Print | E-mail Tweet Gareth Fabbro A recent BBC docu-drama called 'Atlantis' recreated the last days of the Bronze Age civilisation on the island of Thera (now known as Santorini), that I've meant to blog about for a while now. This program, along with a more traditional 'Timewatch' documentary, argued that the eruption in roughly 1600 B. C. formed the foundation of Plato's description of Atlantis . For me, however, the more interesting part of the program was their recreation of the eruption itself, an eruption so powerful it likely caused the downfall of the civilisation after which it is named: the Minoans. Before I start, a little bit of history; why is this a significant eruption? The Minoans were a powerful Bronze Age civilisation on Crete. Their power came from their trade network, stretching from western Europe to the middle east. Thera was an important part of this network, although it appears to have had some independence. This all came to an end some time in the 17th century B. C., and the chief suspect is the eruption of Santorini. Atlantis recreates this event in some detail, and to the BBC's credit, pretty accurately. Of course, there is still a fair amount of uncertainty in the recreation, but the program closely reflects current scientific thinking."

The park is a supervolcano so enormous, it has puzzled geophysicists for decades, but now a research group, using seismic technology to scan its depths, have made a bombshell discovery. Yellowstone's magma reserves are many magnitudes greater than previously thought, say scientists from the University of Utah. Underneath the national park's attractions and walking paths is enough hot rock to fill the Grand Canyon nearly 14 times over. Most of it is in a newly discovered magma reservoir, which the scientists featured in a studypublished on Thursday in the journal Science.

The Utah scientists also created the first three-dimensional depiction of the geothermal structure under Yellowstone, which comprises three parts.

Geological Survey Fact Sheet 100-03 2004Tracking Changes in Yellowstone's Restless Volcanic System The world-famous Yellowstone geysers and hot springs are fueled by heat released from an enormous reservoir of magma (partially molten rock beneath the ground). Since the 1970s, scientists have tracked rapid uplift and subsidence of the ground and significant changes in hydrothermal (hot water) features and earthquake activity. In 2001, the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory was created by the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS), the University of Utah, and Yellowstone National Park to strengthen scientists' ability to track activity that could result in hazardous seismic, hydrothermal, or volcanic events in the region In the 1970s, a resurvey of benchmarks discovered the unprecedented uplift of the Yellowstone Caldera of more than 28 inches (72 cm) over five decades. More recently, new and revolutionary satellite-based methods for tracking the Earth's shifting ground motions have enabled University of Utah, U. S. Geological Survey, and other scientists to assemble a more precise and detailed picture of Yellowstone's ground movements. Global Positioning System (GPS) stations like this one in the Norris Geyser Basin can detect changes in elevation and horizontal shifts of 1 inch or less per year, helping scientists understand the processes that drive Yellowstone's active volcanic and earthquake systems. ( Photo courtesy of Christine Puskas, University of Utah. ) No actual volcanic eruption has occurred in the Yellowstone National Park region of Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho since a lava flow poured out about 70,000 years ago. However, the area's many geysers and hot springs indicate that the underlying volcanic system remains active. In the early 1970s, Earth scientists found evidence that this system was more active than even these spectacular hydrothermal (hot water) features had suggested. One important clue was found along the south shore of Yellowstone Lake, where trees were dying because their trunks were partly below water and a boat dock had become completely submerged."

Nelson Volcanic Landforms, Volcanoes and Plate Tectonics This page last updated on 26-Aug-2017Volcanic Landforms Volcanic landforms are controlled by the geological processes that form them and act on them after they have formed. Thus, a given volcanic landform will be characteristic of the types of material it is made of, which in turn depends on the prior eruptive behavior of the volcano. Although later processes can modify the original landform, we should be able to find clues in the modified form that lead us to conclusions about the original formation process. Here we discuss the major volcanic landforms and how they are formed, and in some cases, later modified. Most of this material will be discussed with reference to slides shown in class that illustrate the essential features of each volcanic landform. Shield Volcanoes A shield volcano is characterized by gentle upper slopes (about 5 o ) and somewhat steeper lower slopes (about 10 o ). Shield volcanoes are composed almost entirely of relatively thin lava flows built up over a central vent. Most shields were formed by low viscosity basaltic magma that flows easily down slope away form the summit vent. The low viscosity of the magma allows the lava to travel down slope on a gentle slope, but as it cools and its viscosity increases, its thickness builds up on the lower slopes giving a somewhat steeper lower slope."

It forms in essentially 3 basic steps. 1) Magma comes to the surface and creates a magma chamber. The volcano forms the way they do (successive eruptions) 2) After many millions of years the magma and pressure subsides in the magma chamber. This means there is less pressure under the volcano and the volcanoe starts to collapse 3) The sides of the volcano collapse and may/may not become filled with water.

"text": "\"Earth is undergoing true polar wander, scientists say By Deborah Byrd in Earth | January 20, 2013Scientists developed a computer model to identify four possible instances of true polar wander in the past. And, they say, true polar wander is happening now. In late 2012, scientists based in Germany and Norway published new results about a geophysical theory known as true polar wander. That is a drifting of Earth’s solid exterior – an actual change in latitude for some land masses – relative to our planet’s rotation axis. These scientists used hotspots in Earth’s mantle as part of a computer model, which they say is accurate for the past 120 million years, to identify four possible instances of true polar wander in the past. And, they say, true polar wander is happening now. These scientists published their results in the Journal for Geophysical Research. The scientists – including Pavel V. Doubrovine and Trond H. Torsvik of the University of Oslo, and Bernhard Steinberger of the Helmholtz Center in Potsdam, Germany – established what they believe is a stable reference frame for tracking true polar wander. Based on this reference frame, they say that twice – from 90 to 40 million years ago – the solid Earth traveled back and forth by nearly 9 degrees with respect to our planet’s axis of rotation. What’s more, for the past 40 million years, the Earth’s solid outer layers have been slowly rotating at a rate of 0.2 degrees every million years, according to these scientists."

Even though its name is marigold, do not confuse it with the common ornamental marigold which is the genus Tagetes. Calendula is most widely used for skin and digestive issues, but also for menstrual symptoms. The useful components of calendula include a volatile oil, carotenoids, flavonoids, mucilage, resin, polysachharides, aromatic plant acids as well as saponins, glycosides and sterols. Extracts of calendula can include an infused oil, alcohol tincture, water soluble tea, or distilled and used as essential oil or watery distillate (hydrolate). The water soluble polysaccharides and saponins have been used as a tea to heal stomach ulcers as well as in a compress for various types of skin damage. These benefits can be reaped by using calendula as a tea to drink or to use as a skin wash. A poultice of calendula flower can be applied to a wound to help stop bleeding and promote healing. Calendula is probably best used for chapped and otherwise irritated skin. The oil soluble components including the essential oil seem especially good at stimulating wound healing."

The word officinalis means ~medicinal~ and the Latin word ~calendae~ means ~throughout the months~ meaning that the ~plant flowers for many months.~Calendula likes full sun but does poorly in hot weather. For centuries this plant was associated with the sun and believed to open with the sunrise and close with the sunset. Because the flower heads follow the paths of the sun (like sunflowers), the Calendula is sometimes called ~Summer's Bride~ or ~Husbandman's Dial.~Early Christians called the Calendula ~Mary's Gold~ and placed them by the statues of the virgin Mary. Considered to be one of the most sacred herbs of ancient India, used in temples and weddings. The blossoms were strung into garlands and placed them around the necks of the gods. Calendula has been used to treat ulcers and other illnesses. It also helps speed the healing of wounds and was used during the Civil War. The Romans used Calendula, mixed with vinegar, for seasoning meat and in salads and preserves. Eating Calendula was thought to make one see fairies, be easily induced to sleep, or to feel more amorous."

All reported benefits are based on personal accounts and are not based on scientific studies. I believe there is a wisdom that should be explored in practices that have been used for centuries. This information is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. Consult a qualified health care professional if you think you may have a medical condition. Herbal vaginal steams, also known as yoni steam baths, or bajos, as they are known in Spanish, or chai-yok in Korean have been are used for centuries to treat many conditions including painful or irregular periods, endometriosis, infertility, fibroids, cysts, cervical stenosis, and vaginal dryness. The bajos have been used in conjunction with the Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy® (ATMAT). Personally, I like to call them pelvic floor steams because the steam doesn’t actually enter the vagina or the womb (or would you want it to, in my opinion), but they do have a warming and relaxing effect on the pelvic floor which probably increases circulation in the surrounding structures. How vaginal steams are believed to work: The vaginal steams, or as I like to call them, pelvic floor steams have been thought to work as a uterine lavage to soften and cleanse the uterine wall of accumulated debris. As I mentioned before, the steam does not directly enter the womb, but the warmth of the steam softens the tissues and relaxes the belly and pelvic floor and increases blood and lymph flow."

This product has been a big hit with many pregnant women who are suffering from stretch marks and for those who are looking for a good anti-ageing product. This has made many women wonder if all of this can be done with just one product. What makes Bio Oil interesting for this reviewer is that many scar treatment products available over-the-counter is not really very effective. Since I am not pregnant but have some scars left over due to my acne days I decided to try this with a co-worker who had just given birth. With this in mind we decided to try out the product and do a Bio Oil review. Before purchasing we decided to do a little bit of research. Upon inspection we discovered that Bio Oil is composed of Pur Cellin Oil, a manufactured version of the preen oil secreted by ducks. This oil helps duck feathers become waterproof. The oil recreation acts as an effective delivery system for the product’s other ingredients, speeding up absorption and improving spreadability."

Most of the time, bee stings only produce local reactions that include pain, redness and swelling at the site where bee has stung. Severe allergic reactions to bee sting that affect the whole body occurs to people who are allergic to bee venom. Such severe allergic reactions to bee sting is known as anaphylaxis or anaphylactic reactions. In such a case, the bee sting victim shows such symptoms as difficulty in breathing, hives or red, itchy rashes on all or various parts of body, swelling of face, throat, or mouth, wheezing or difficulty in swallowing, restlessness and anxiety, increased pulse rate, dizziness or a sharp drop in blood pressure. If you have been stung by a bee and experience such severe reactions, you need immediate medical assistance. Whether you are allergic to a bee sting or not can be ascertained through allergic testing. It’s better to avoid being stung by bee or wasps if you are allergic to their venom because this may be life-threatening for you. However, if you are not allergic to bee venom and if your symptoms are only localized like redness, pain and inflammation at the site of bee sting or around it, you may use natural home remedies for bee sting to get relief.

"text": "The Meaning Behind Flowers Throughout time, humans have given special meanings to flowers. Ancient Egyptian, Greek, Roman, and Chinese cultures have all included written records of their assignment of meanings to certain flowers. Floriography, which is the study of flower meanings, began in Turkey in the 17 th century and flourished during the Victorian era of the mid-19 th century especially. During this time, it was not considered appropriate to display or talk about feelings and emotions; consequently, people used flower bouquets to communicate secret meanings to one another. Every flower had a specific meaning, and sometimes different colors of the same flower had different meanings as well. The way in which the flowers were given made a difference, too - for instance, if it was given upside down or if it was given dried made a difference in meaning. Different cultures and time periods assigned different meanings to flowers as well, which is why multiple and conflicting flower meanings are sometimes seen. Today, people can send whatever flowers they please - there are no rules. However, it is fun and romantic to follow the traditional and secret language of flowers when sending a bouquet.

"text": "Meaning of the Calla Flower Flowers have been associated with certain feelings and ideas for thousands of years, and many flowers have kept their meanings through the years. The calla lily is a flower with a long history, and it is an interesting case because it carries with it contradictory meanings. History Calla lilies are natives of southern Africa, particularly from the range of South Africa to Malawi and the island of Madagascar. It is not known when the calla lily first made its way to Europe, but the plants have been grown for centuries, and they can thrive in greenhouses. Mythology In ancient Greek and Roman mythology, the lily represented the goddess Hera, from whom it was believed the flowers came. The myth is that Zeus brought his mortal son Hercules to his wife Hera to nurse from her as she slept. Zeus wanted his son to have divine powers from drinking Hera’s milk, but because the child was from another woman, Hera flung Hercules away from her when she woke up. Her milk flew out through the universe to create the Milky Way, and a few drops fell to Earth, where beautiful white lilies sprung from the ground. In Roman mythology, Venus, the goddess of love and lust, saw the flowers, and in a fit of jealousy over their beauty, she made them grow a large pistil in their center. Meaning and Symbolism The calla lily has meant different things at different periods in history, but its classic meaning is considered to be magnificent beauty."

People love these perennial plants because the waxy and trumpet-shaped flowers come in a range of colors, because the blooms last for weeks, and because they're easy to maintain. However, it’s best to grow calla lilies from bulbs, because sprouting seeds can take a long time. Calla lilies are native to South Africa and are tropical plants, so while you can keep them outdoors in the summer, you must take steps to prepare them properly for winter in cooler climates."

Some flowers have religious significance too. It is impossible for any person to be completely unaware of flower meanings.

"text": "Why Calla Lilies Don’t Bloom: Making Your Calla Lily Bloom Printer Friendly Version Image by Sharon Mollerus By Heather Rhoades The typical calla lily bloom time is in the summer and fall, but for many calla lily owners this time may come and go without a sign of buds or flowers from their calla lily plant. This is especially true for gardeners who grow their calla lilies in containers. It makes calla lily owners wonder, “Why don’t my calla lilies flower?” and, “How can I make calla lilies bloom?” Let’s look at why calla lilies don’t bloom and how to fix that. Making Calla Lilies Planted in the Ground Bloom Calla lilies planted in the ground tend to bloom without too many problems. When they fail to bloom, it is due to one of three reasons. These reasons are: Too much nitrogen Lack of water Lack of sun If your calla lily is not blooming due to too much nitrogen, the plant will grow rapidly and be lush. You may notice a brown edge on the leaves as well. Too much nitrogen will encourage foliage to grow but will prevent the plant from blooming."

When I came back, all the leaves were down and turning yellow. When I asked my co-worker what happened, they said they put some 7up to feed the plant. I don’t think it liked it 7up, but since it worked on whatever plant they have, they tried it on the Calla Lily Plant. To keep it from looking so droopy, I have tied a rubber band around the stems, so that it would stand up. HELP!!!! ! Hi,Calla Lily, a bulb plant, becomes dormant once a year. After the plant has finished blooming, the leaves turn yellow and brown. Once this occurs prune the plant down to the soil level. Place the pot of bulbs in a cool dark area where the temperature is above freezing but no higher than 50 degrees for 2-3 months, this is usually during the fall or early winter, but it sounds like yours happened a little sooner.. Keep the soil very dry, watering sparingly every few weeks to prevent the bulbs from drying out."

Richards With their handsome, tropical foliage and dramatic flowers, calla lilies add a hint of mystery and elegance to the garden. This article tells you how to transplant calla lilies outside or into pots for indoor or outdoor culture. Transplanting Calla Lilies The best time to transplant calla lilies ( Zantedeschia aethiopica) is in the spring after all danger of frost has passed and the soil is beginning to warm. Choose a location with organically rich soil that holds moisture well. Callas grow well in low, moist areas where most other rhizomes would suffer from root rot. The plants tolerate full sun in areas with mild summer, but where summers are hot they need morning sun and afternoon shade. How to Transplant Calla Lily Outside Before transplanting calla lilies, prepare the soil by loosening it with a shovel. Work in some compost to enrich the soil and help it hold moisture. Plant the rhizomes 3 to 4 inches deep and transplant potted calla lilies into a hole dug to fit the depth of the pot. Space the plants 12 to 18 inches apart."

Distinction If a calla lily's leaves turn yellow and wilt or curl, the plant needs dormancy. White or brown spots and streaks on the leaves indicate the presence of tomato spotted wilt virus. Treatment Colorado State University Extension recommends discarding calla lilies infected with tomato spotted wilt virus. If your plant needs a rest period, reduce watering for six weeks to allow it to rest, allowing the soil to dry."

"text": "Dividing and Transplanting Calla Lilies Calla lilies grow from horizontal root stems called rhizomes. If after a two to three years your clumps of calla lily have multiplied and the rhizomes (roots/bulbs) become overcrowded they may stop flowering. When this happens it's time to divide them so they'll have more breathing room and space to grow. Fortunately, calla lilies are very easy to divide and transplant to different areas of the garden or give to friends. When To Divide Calla Lilies The time to divide calla lilies is after they have flowered and their foliage has turned completely yellow. This is usually in late summer or early fall, before they've gone into dormancy. How To Dig The Calla Lily Rhizomes Use a shovel or a pitch fork to dig in a circle and loosen the soil around your plant and it's rhizomes (bulbs/roots). The rhizomes look like pieces of a ginger root. As you move in a circle around the plant, push the blade deeper into the ground to a point underneath the cluster of rhizomes. The rhizomes will be growing just a couple inches under the soil."

Corns and calluses are hard, thickened areas of skin that form as a consequence of rubbing, friction, or pressure on the skin. Corns and calluses form on the feet and can make walking painful. Although corns and calluses are often talked about together, they are separate conditions. Corns generally occur on the tops and sides of the toes. A hard corn is a small patch of thickened, dead skin with a small plug of skin in the centre. A soft corn has a much thinner surface, appears whitish and rubbery, and usually occurs between the toes. Seed corns are clusters of tiny corns that can be very tender if they are on a weight-bearing part of the foot. Seed corns tend to occur on the bottom of the feet, and some doctors believe this condition is caused by blocked sweat ducts."

"text": "What is a Corn? What is a Callus? Corns and calluses are areas of thickened skin that develop to protect that area from irritation. They occur when something rubs against the foot repeatedly or causes excess pressure against part of the foot. The term callus commonly is used if the thickening of skin occurs on the bottom of the foot, and if thickening occurs on the top of the foot (or toe), it's called a corn. However, the location of the thickened skin is less important than the pattern of thickening: flat, widespread skin thickening indicates a callus, and skin lesions that are thicker or deeper indicate a corn. Corns and calluses are not contagious but may become painful if they get too thick. In people with diabetes or decreased circulation, they can lead to more serious foot problems. Causes Corns often occur where a toe rubs against the interior of a shoe. Excessive pressure at the balls of the feet—common in women who regularly wear high heels—may cause calluses to develop on the balls of the feet."

Have you ever wondered exactly what a callus is, or how it forms on your skin? What Exactly Is A Callus? Callus formation is triggered by pressure or abrasion. The heel of your foot as it rubs inside your shoe, or the palm of your hand if you’re doing a lot of manual labor are good examples of this. While it might feel like a callus is something extra, added to your skin, it’s actually just a build-up of what’s already there.

Calluses are common on the bottom of your foot because your foot frequently rubs against other surfaces. Although most calluses disappear without any treatment, you might need to consult your doctor if a callus causes you discomfort. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Causes A common cause of calluses on the bottom of the foot is shoes that fit poorly. Tight shoes and high heels compress different parts of the foot, and loose shoes can cause your foot to rub repeatedly against the sole. Not wearing socks also can lead to calluses. Another common cause is an abnormality in your gait that causes you to carry weight in certain areas of your foot more than you carry it in others, according to the website e Podiatry. Having bunions on your feet also can cause calluses as the bunions rub against your shoes. Symptoms You might have a callus on the bottom of your foot if you see any thick or rough areas of skin, if you have a hardened or raised bump or if you feel any tenderness or pain beneath your skin, according to the Mayo Clinic website. Callused skin also can be dry, flaky or waxy."

Foot calluses are thick patches of skin that can be dark in color or dusty and cracked in texture. Many people have calluses on their feet. Calluses most commonly form on the knuckles of the toes or on the heels and balls of the feet."

"text": "How do tendons and ligaments heal? What happens when you sprain your ankle? Does the ligament rupture, or is it stretched? How long does it take before it heals? Does it fully recover? One might think that the answers to these questions are common knowledge for doctors and physiotherapists, but they are not. The questions seem simple enough, but in reality we cannot give a definite answer to any of them, but here we will try anyway. In the following text, I will sometimes refer to tendons and sometimes to ligaments, although most of what is written applies to both. Tendons can be different, as can ligaments, but in broad terms we can consider them the same, as long as we exclude the finger flexor tendons, which are a special case. With regard to the first question, how can we find out whether the ligament ruptures or is stretched on injury?"

"text": "How to Use Bread & Lemon to Remove Calluses and Corns The pictures of smooth pampered skin that surround us on TV, in magazines, and throughout movies just aren’t realistic. Reality is that the majority of people use their bodies (you know, walk around, garden, and what not) and eventually our daily routines start to wear on our skin. After a while this repeated friction forms a hardened patch of skin, known as a callus (or a corn, if it is shaped/behaves a certain way.) While not generally much of a problem, if you want to get rid of this tough patch of skin for some reason, try using these simple methods instead of purchasing store bought creams. Bread & Vinegar “Bandage”This “bandage” (or paste, if that’s how you decide to make it) sounds strange and off-putting, but works well!Why bread: The bread is mostly a means of application, and has become the preferred method thanks to it being embedded in natural remedy lore. Using bread also means you have the option to make a paste as well, and you don’t have to waste a sponge!Why vinegar: Vinegar is anti-fungal and antibacterial properties, and the liquid with its high acidity level helps to soften the callused skin. You will need… -A piece of bread -1 cup Apple cider vinegar or white distilled vinegar (roughly) -gauze or thin fabric -adhesive tape -pumice stone (optional)Directions If you have one, file the callus slightly with a pumice stone. Pour 1/2 cup of apple cider vinegar (or white distilled vinegar) into a bowl. Drop in a half slice of bread and let it soak. When it is thoroughly soaked through, rest directly on your callus and wrap in gauze, before securing the gauze with adhesive or medical tape."

"text": "Preventing and Treating Torn Calluses Nearly every athlete and or fitness enthusiast, who has ever trained consistently, has encountered a build up of calluses. This article will take a look at what causes calluses, how our bodies use calluses, how to prevent calluses from tearing and how to treat torn calluses when they arise. Calluses are thickened areas of skin that are caused by repetitive friction and or pressure on the skin. The callus acts as a protective barrier between the skin and the external source of the force or friction. Although calluses can form nearly anywhere on the body, the hands and feet are the most common locations for calluses. This article will focus primarily on the calluses of the hands. Although calluses are formed by the body with the purpose of protecting the skin, like mostly anything, too much of a good thing has the ability to have a negative impact. When calluses build and thicken to the point that they are raised above the surface of the skin, they are at risk for being torn off. There seems to be an association with an initiation into die-hard training that is marked by torn calluses. Rather, torn calluses are as much a sign of toughness as is catching the flu."

Symptoms Diagnosis and Treatment Prevention How Do I Know If I Have a Corn or Callus? To find out whether a hard patch of skin is a callus or a wart, your doctor will scrape some skin off the affected area. When the superficial skin is scraped off, warts bleed in a characteristic pattern. Calluses do not; they just reveal more dead skin. Warts are viral and require specific treatment. Most corns and calluses are corrected by a variety of measures, including a change in shoes, trimming of the calluses, and sometimes surgery. What Are the Treatments for Corns and Calluses? Most corns and calluses gradually disappear when the friction or pressure stops, although your doctor may shave the top of a callus to reduce the thickness.

Nonunion Hypertrophic nonunion of the tibia Specialty Orthopedics Nonunion is permanent failure of healing following a broken bone unless intervention (such as surgery) is performed. A fracture with nonunion generally forms a structural resemblance to a fibrous joint, and is therefore often called a \"\"false joint\"\" or pseudoarthrosis (the Greek stem \"\"pseudo-\"\" means false and \"\"arthrosis\"\" means joint). The diagnosis is generally made when there is no healing between two sets of X-ray. This is generally after 6–8 months. [ 1]Nonunion is a serious complication of a fracture and may occur when the fracture moves too much, has a poor blood supply or gets infected. Patients who smoke have a higher incidence of nonunion. The normal process of bone healing is interrupted or stalled. Since the process of bone healing is quite variable, a nonunion may go on to heal without intervention in a very few cases. In general, if a nonunion is still evident at 6 months post injury it will remain unhealed without specific treatment, usually orthopedic surgery."

"text": "\"CALORIC TEST (AKA ENG, VENG)Timothy C. Hain, MD Page last modified: July 4, 2017 Return to testing index The caloric test is a part of the ENG. It is an attempt to discover the degree to which the vestibular system is responsive and also how symmetric the responses are, between left and right ears. It is a test of the lateral semicircular canals alone -- it does not assess vertical canal function or otolithic function. While not as good as we would like, the caloric test is the best that we have to deduce the function of each ear independently of the other. The rotatory chair is a better test to discover the function of the both inner ears together. The VHIT test is somewhat of a compromise -- one can often determine the bad ear, but not as well as the ENG. Caloric testing in the USA is dying out. The reason is that doing caloric testing is generally a financial loss for the outpatient medical facility, because it takes a long time (often more than an hour), it requires an expensive piece of machinery, it requires a highly trained individual to do the test, and because many large insurance companies and Medicare pay very little for the caloric test. If you are fortunate enough to find an outpatient facility that still does good quality calorics, you are lucky ! History: The caloric response was first described in by Robert Barany in 1906."

D., Brooke Grove Foundation, Sandy Spring, Maryland Am Fam Physician. 2002 Feb 15;65 (4):640-651. Elderly patients with unintentional weight loss are at higher risk for infection, depression and death. The leading causes of involuntary weight loss are depression (especially in residents of long-term care facilities), cancer (lung and gastrointestinal malignancies), cardiac disorders and benign gastrointestinal diseases. Medications that may cause nausea and vomiting, dysphagia, dysgeusia and anorexia have been implicated. Polypharmacy can cause unintended weight loss, as can psychotropic medication reduction (i.e., by unmasking problems such as anxiety). A specific cause is not identified in approximately one quarter of elderly patients with unintentional weight loss. A reasonable work-up includes tests dictated by the history and physical examination, a fecal occult blood test, a complete blood count, a chemistry panel, an ultrasensitive thyroid-stimulating hormone test and a urinalysis. Upper gastrointestinal studies have a reasonably high yield in selected patients. Management is directed at treating underlying causes and providing nutritional support."

Electronystagmography (ENG) is a test that shows the movement of your eyes in order to determine how well two cranial nerves within your brain are functioning. The two nerves are the acoustic (or vestibulocochlear) nerve and the oculomotor nerve. The acoustic nerve connects the brain and the inner ear and controls hearing and balance. The oculomotor nerve connects the brain to the muscles of your eyes. Purpose Purpose of an ENGThe ENG detects disorders in the parts of your inner ear that are responsible for orientation, position sense, and balance, as well as in the nerves that connect your brain to your eyes and ears. Your doctor may recommend this test if you are suffering from any of the following symptoms:severe or persistent dizzinessvertigo (sense that the room is spinning)problems with balanceunexplained hearing loss Your doctor may also perform an ENG if you have any of the following conditions: Usher syndrome: an inherited disorder that affects vision, balance, and hearingacoustic neuroma: a benign tumor on the acoustic (vestibulocochlear) nervelabyrinthitis: inflammation of the inner ear Meniere’s disease: an inner ear disorder that affects balance and hearingany suspected lesion in your inner ear Types Types of ENG tests and how they are performed There are a number of different types of ENG tests.

Normal weight men and women overestimate exercise energy expenditure. J Sports Med Phys Fitness. ( 2010) 50 (4):377-84. AIM: The limited potential of exercise to induce weight loss could be partly due to the overestimation of the energy cost of exercise. The objectives of this study were twofold: 1) to investigate whether men and women are able to accurately estimate exercise energy expenditure (EE); and 2) to determine whether they have the ability to accurately compensate for the EE of exercise during a buffet-type meal. METHODS: Sixteen (8 men, 8 women) moderately active (VO2 peak=45.4±7.7 m L.kg-1.min-1), normal weight (BMI=22.8±3.3 kg/m2) individuals, aged 20-35 years, were studied. They were blinded to two randomly assigned experimental conditions: a 200 and a 300 kcal (measured by indirect calorimetry) exercise sessions that were performed on a treadmill at the same intensity (50% of VO2 peak). At the end of each exercise session individuals were asked to estimate EE of the exercise sessions and to then eat the caloric equivalent of their estimated exercise EE from a buffet-type meal."

Sugar substitutes may be natural products such as sorbitol or xylitol, or they may be artificial sweeteners created in a laboratory like saccharin, sucralose or aspartame. In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the following non-caloric sweeteners: saccharin, aspartame, sucralose, neotame, and acesulfame potassium. Saccharin Saccharin was discovered in 1879. It is the oldest nonnutritive sweetener. It is commonly sold in pink packets under the brand name Sweet'N Low. It is 300 times sweeter than sucrose but has a bitter aftertaste. The use of saccharin increased during World War I due to sugar shortages, and during the 1960s because of its use in the production of low-calorie foods."

The test also checks for damage to the brain stem. How the Test is Performed This test stimulates your acoustic nerve by delivering cold or warm water or air into your ear canal. When cold water or air enters your ear and the inner ear changes temperature, it should cause fast, side-to-side eye movements called nystagmus. The test is done in the following way: Before the test, your ear, especially the eardrum, will be checked. This is to make sure it is normal. One ear is tested at a time. A small amount of cold water or air is gently delivered into one of your ears. Your eyes should show an involuntary movement called nystagmus."

"text": "Coffee & Health Caffeine and Dehydration: What the Research Says There seems to be a lot of confusion as to whether or not caffeine causes dehydration. This stems mainly from caffeine’s classification as a diuretic, but to determine the overall dehydrating effect of caffeine, there are a few other factors involved. Also, I think based on many people’s personal experience, they can attest that whenever they drink their morning coffee, frequent trips to the bathroom ensue. Thus, coffee must be dehydrating them -or- is it? Caffeine as a Diuretic Caffeine can elicit extra water secretion by the kidneys or in other words acts as a diuretic, which by definition means “ Something that promotes the formation of urine by the kidney .”However, a recent study 1 showed that only doses of 360 mg of caffeine or greater produced significantly more urine volume. Another study 2 noted that built up caffeine tolerance also influences how well caffeine works as a diuretic. For those without built up tolerance to caffeine the diuretic effect of caffeine was more prominent. Yet another study 3 found that consuming caffeine prior to exercise negated the diuretic effect of caffeine as compared to consuming caffeine and then resting. In contrary, this study 4 looked at energy drink consumption and how caffeine and/or other energy drink ingredients like taurine influenced dehydration. They found that the testing group that received the caffeinated energy drinks had significantly more urine output than those that received no caffeine or just taurine only drinks."

That's because Rabies is not only contageous to other animals, but to humans, and is virtually 100% fatal in all species. Even if your state's laws will permit you to order Rabies vaccine, if your dog were to bite someone later, the law would treat it as unvaccinated and would not accept your word that it was vaccinated at home against this horrible disease, and depending on where you live, state law COULD require an unvaccinated dog to be surrendered for Rabies testing, which involves cutting off the dog's head. Every vet I know of has a low-cost Rabies vaccine clinic at least once a year, and most states set limits on how much they can charge for a Rabies vaccine, so that saving money or not being able to afford it is no excuse. You WILL save money vaccinating against other canine diseases yourself, using name-brand vaccines (I recommend the Ft. Dodge vaccines myself), but not with Rabies.

In addition, animals that locomote must be able to adjust their orientation with respect to self generated movements, as well as forces that are exerted upon them from the outside world. The vestibular system performs these essential tasks. It engages a number of reflex pathways that are responsible for making compensatory movements and adjustments in body position. It also engages pathways that project to the cortex to provide perceptions of gravity and movement. The first section of the Chapter begins with a description of the components of the peripheral sensory apparatus and describes the ways in which specialized receptors transduce mechanical signals into electrical events. The second section describes the projections of the vestibular afferents to the vestibular nuclei, and projection pathways from the vestibular nuclei to other brain structures such as the cerebellum. The membranous labyrinth of the inner ear consists of three semicircular ducts (horizontal, anterior and posterior), two otolith organs ( saccule and utricle ), and the cochlea (which is discussed in the chapter on Auditory System: Structure and Function ).

"text": "Archives | 1989EATING WELL; Soft-Serve Desserts: How Low in Calories? By MARIAN BURROSView page in Times Machine, Page 00001 The New York Times Archives THE American preoccupation with diet and health is fueling a dramatic increase in sales of frozen desserts that have fewer calories and less fat than regular ice cream. For each of the last three years, sales of frozen yogurt have increased 30 percent, and 90 percent of all frozen yogurt sales has been in soft-serve products. But when customers enter a shop dispensing soft-serve frozen desserts, whether yogurt, ice milk or some other milk-based low-calorie product, chances are they are getting more than they budgeted for calorically. First, the customer will probably see a sign indicating that the product has about 100 calories in four fluid ounces, seemingly a good snack for a weight-conscious person. But how many people know what four fluid ounces looks like? Even sales clerks were unsure when asked recently how much various containers held. Customers ordering medium-sized cups will likely receive an 8- to 12-ounce serving. These could have up to 400 calories, hardly a prudent snack for a dieter whose recommended intake is, say, 1,500 calories a day. Moreover, because the amount of air beaten into the manufacturer's product may vary from store to store,the calories may also vary, in some cases by as much as 100 percent above the manufacturer's claim."

"text": "\"10.1 Vestibular System All living organisms monitor their environment and one important aspect of that environment is gravity and the orientation of the body with respect to gravity. In addition, animals that locomote must be able to adjust their orientation with respect to self generated movements, as well as forces that are exerted upon them from the outside world. The vestibular system performs these essential tasks. It engages a number of reflex pathways that are responsible for making compensatory movements and adjustments in body position. It also engages pathways that project to the cortex to provide perceptions of gravity and movement. The first section of the Chapter begins with a description of the components of the peripheral sensory apparatus and describes the ways in which specialized receptors transduce mechanical signals into electrical events. The second section describes the projections of the vestibular afferents to the vestibular nuclei, and projection pathways from the vestibular nuclei to other brain structures such as the cerebellum. The membranous labyrinth of the inner ear consists of three semicircular ducts (horizontal, anterior and posterior), two otolith organs ( saccule and utricle ), and the cochlea (which is discussed in the chapter on Auditory System: Structure and Function ). The Semicircular Ducts Figure 10.1 shows the main action of the semicircular ducts. These sensory organs respond to angular acceleration."

One third of the population of seniors over the age of 65 begin to lose their balance and quality of life. Any person who suffers from dizziness (vertigo) or recurrent dizzy spells or who has already fallen within the past year can benefit as well. A large percentage of these patients suffer from vestibular disorders; in most cases, with proper treatment, they will experience positive results. Does Medicare recognize vestibular/fall and balance therapy? Yes! Not only do they recognize it, they welcome it as an ongoing movement toward the reduction and prevention of hip fractures and the resulting mortality and morbidity. Medicare recognizes that diagnosing and treating vestibular disorders and comprehensive fall prevention programs are very effective in reducing the number of falls. Prevention programs reduce the risk of bone fractures and other serious injuries, improve quality of life, and provide significant cost savings. Who performs the vestibular/balance disorder testing?"

"text": "Invariably I get asked the question, “ If carbohydrates are so bad, why did [so-and-so] lose weight on the [such-and-such] diet? ”, where “such-and-such” diet is not a “low-carb” diet. Obviously, this is an important question and a pretty complex one. There are several layers to this and, frankly, there are some things we can’t fully explain – I’ll always acknowledge this. That said, many of the successes (at least weight-wise, though hopefully by now you realize there is much more to health than just body composition) of popular diets can be explained by a few simple observations. Above is a list of this year’s most “popular” diets, according to Consumer Reports. Popularity, of course, was determined by a number of factors, including compliance with current government recommendations (sorry Atkins), number of people who have tried the diet, and reported success on the diets. So it’s actually quite misleading when the report says it’s reporting on the “most effective diets. ”Keep in mind the average American (i.e., at baseline) consumes about 2,500 to 2,700 calories per day (different sources, from NHANES to USDA will give slightly different numbers for this, but this range is about correct), of which about 450 grams (about 1,750 calories worth or about 65% of total caloric intake) comes from carbohydrates. You can argue that those who are overweight probably consume an even greater amount of carbohydrates."

The two distinct functions are in hearing and in control of balance. In the case of the auditory part of CN VIII, the symptoms are deafness or tinnitus (ringing in the ears). In the case of the vestibular part of CN VIII, the symptoms are vertigo or imbalance, although visual disturbance when moving may also be a complaint. Auditory function Testing The vast majority of hearing problems result from peripheral disease, i.e., involvement of the eighth nerve or inner ear. Testing of the peripheral system at the bedside is simple and rewarding. For screening of persons who do not complain of hearing loss, asking them to compare the sound of rustling fingers or a ticking watch in the two ears is a useful test of acuity. This, combined with the Weber test (see below), is adequate. To this might be added the use of a whispered voice, which represents midrange frequencies that frequently are involved in neural deafness. Two basic instruments can aid in testing the auditory system: a C512 tuning fork (C256 is adequate but not as sensitive; C128 is inadequate except for testing for hyperacusis and cutaneous and bony vibratory perception), and a mechanical watch (watch-ticking is in the 1,500 cps range)."

"text": "\"Babies given Calpol just once a month 'are five times as likely to develop asthma'By Sophie Borland for the Daily Mail and Mark Howarth Published: 19:42 EDT, 15 September 2013 | Updated: 02:30 EDT, 16 September 2013165View comments Calpol: 12 million bottles sold in the UKChildren who are given Calpol are far more likely to develop asthma, a major study has found. Those given the medicine once a month are five times more at risk while even having it just once a year increases the chances by 70 per cent. Over the past 50 years the number of children developing asthma in Britain has more than doubled but experts are divided over the causes. Around 1.1 million youngsters now have the condition – in addition to 4.3 million adults – and it leads to 1,400 deaths every year. Researchers who studied 20,743 children say there is now growing evidence that the increasing rates may be linked to paracetamol – the main ingredient in Calpol. The drug is the most popular painkiller in Britain and 84 per cent of babies are given it for pain and fever within the first six months of their life. Although the NHS advises on what doses parents should give children depending on their age, there are no warnings concerning possible health risks. In one of the largest studies of its kind, academics from the University of A Coruna in northern Spain questioned the parents of 10,371 children aged six and seven and 10,372 aged 13 and 14. All were asked whether the children had asthma – and if so, how severe – and how often they had been given paracetamol within the previous year and when they were babies. Those in the younger age group who were given the medicine at least once a month were 5.4 more times likely to have asthma and those given it just once a year were 70 per cent more at risk."

When buying some Calpol in a large pharmacy chain, the poster said she had discovered, to her \"\"amazement\"\" that \"\"if you register your details under the 'minor ailments scheme', all medicines etc for children are free\"\". She added: \"\"They are not allowed to advertise it, but you can save a small fortune on Calpol, Piriton, Sudocrem, plasters etc. I wish I had known eight years ago! \"\" So, is it true? You can't just walk into a pharmacy and stock up on Calpol for your kids. That's not the way it works. Neal Patel, Royal Pharmaceutical Society For a start, pharmacists would not prescribe Calpol.

These two drugs are similar in every way other than the name. Which drug to use for fever? When to use drugs for fever? Paracetamol and Acetaminophen drug information Ibuprofen drug information Ads Which Drug to Use for Fever? There has been a study that has shown that combining paracetamol (or acetaminophen as it is known in North America) and ibuprofen in combination is more effective at treating fever than drugs used individually but there is no evidence on whether symptoms are also reduced more effectively with both drugs used together. No drug is completely without side effects and so the current advice remains that one or other of Paracetamol (Acetaminophen in North America) or Ibuprofen is used first alone, with the option of adding the other in if no response. My approach is to advise Paracetamol (or Acetaminophen in North America) as first line for fever because overall Ibuprofen, even though it has a good safety profile in children, is more likely to produce side effects than Paracetamol (Acetaminophen). However, as an anti-inflammatory agent for some disorders, such as arthritis, Ibuprofen would be my drug of choice."

More from Conditions Coeliac disease (coeliac sprue or gluten allergy)ED treatments summary How to use your metered dose inhaler Getty Westend61Reviewed by Janice Main4 September 2015What is influenza?is a viral disease that usually strikes between October and May. It lasts from three to five days and can be followed by fatigue for two or three weeks. It usually causes aching muscles and joints, headaches, cough and fever with a temperature of between 38 o and 40 o C. Although it can become a much more severe illness, leading to pneumonia, nerve and brain damage and even death – such complications are rare. Because it is a viral infection, it cannot be treated with antibiotics. Antiviral agents can reduce the severity and duration of infection, but these are generally prescribed only if there are concerns regarding complications of the infection or transmission of more severe strains of the virus. The best remedy is rest while drinking plenty of fluids. It's possible to get vaccinated against influenza, which is especially advisable for the elderly and other people who are at increased risk of experiencing complications of flu. These include people with chronic heart, lung, kidney, liver and neurological diseases, people with diabetes, people with HIV infection, and those who have an underactive immune system. In 2009, a pandemic (global outbreak) of swine flu (H1N1 influenza A) was associated with high complication rates in pregnant women and pregnant women are now recommended to have a flu vaccine.

"text": "\"Camel Case is a naming convention in which a name is formed of multiple words that are joined together as a single word with the first letter of each of the multiple words capitalized so that each word that makes up the name can easily be read. The name derives from the hump or humps that seem to appear in any Camel Case name. In Upper Camel Case, the first letter of the new word is upper case, allowing it to be easily distinguished from a lower Camel Case name, in which the first letter of the first name is lower case. The advantage of Camel Case is that in any computer system where the letters in a name have to be contiguous (no spaces), a more meaningful name can be created using a descriptive sequence of words without violating the naming limitation.

Photo by hdeb89, Flickr Vast, undulating mounds of sand baking in the hot desert sun make up the majority of the Sahara desert. These mounds extend into and beyond the horizon in every direction making an estimation of distance practically impossible. Crossing the Sahara by camel is incredibly dangerous. Wind sweeps the top-layers of sand into never ending ripples that allow dark shadows to dance among them. The Tenere Desert is one of the most beautiful areas of Sahara. Photo by Matthew Paulson, Flickr This is an ocean of sand as dynamic as it is immense and there is a very good reason it acted as a barrier to human movement for so long. It is also the reason that humans, even today, yearn to cross it. It is difficult, it is dangerous and it is daring and that is exactly what makes it such an adventure. Crossing the Sahara by 4-wheel drive is a brilliant escapade in itself, but to travel this most difficult landscape on camelback is an authentic experience that will last a lifetime."

When the French anthropologists entered the arena of structuralism, there appeared a shift in the whole concept of structuralism. Now language became a method of explaining social structure. The shift from social to linguistic structures is part of what has come to be known as the linguistic turn which dramatically altered the nature of social sciences. A large number of social scientists shifted from social structure or from individual social beings to language or more generally the science of various sorts. Structuralism emerged from diverse developments in various fields. But, the source of modern structuralism and its strongest bastion to this day is linguistics. ADVERTISEMENTS: The propounded of linguistic structuralism is the Swiss linguist Ferdinand Saussure. For our purposes two aspects of Saussure’s work are important.

"text": "Microbial Rennets and Fermentation Produced Chymosin (FPC): How Vegetarian Are They? Posted on August 21, 2012 by The VRG Blog Editor By Jeanne Yacoubou, MS VRG Research Director Introduction In 2007, The VRG learned from an employee at Danisco, a major enzyme manufacturer, that fermentation produced chymosin (FPC) responsible for curdling milk used in making cheese, originated from a calf gene. ( Chymosin is the primary enzyme in rennet responsible for curdling.) He told us: “Ultimately, maybe twenty-five years ago, the gene used to make microbial chymosin is from calf rennet. It has been genetically modified so it is a GMO product [strictly speaking].” In 2007, The VRG was told by several cheese companies and enzyme makers that approximately 70% of all cheese in the United States was produced with FPC. In this update, The VRG more closely examines FPC, which is often referred to on labels as “microbial rennet.” In the process, we will discuss the role of bioengineering, such as recombinant DNA technology, in enzyme production commercially practiced today. Labeling issues arise and a comparison with the European Union will be discussed. History As we wrote in a 2008 article on rennet, there are four major types of rennet: calf rennet, microbial rennet, FPC, and vegetable rennet. In 2012, best estimates from enzyme companies and dairy groups attribute 90% of all commercial cheese production in the United States to FPC."

This paper analyses and reports the views of pastoralists regarding reproduction, ecotypes, and breeding in dromedary camels in some selected villages of the Nigeria-Niger corridor. Two villages (Kursilla in Diffa Region and Gujjo in Zinder Region) in southeastern Niger Republic and one village (Garin Alkali in Yobe State) in northeastern Nigeria were purposively selected for this study. Data were collected using formal questionnaires and focus group discussion. Results showed that dromedary camels in the study area mate and calve during the early-dry season of October to December. Different signs used by pastoralists to detect rut, oestrus and pregnancy in camels were reported. Different camel ecotypes were defined based on coat colour. Though the dark-brown ecotype was the most preferred, camels in the study area were bred more towards an “ideal herd” rather than an “ideal animal”. This probably brings to light a survival strategy that supports pastoral life in a fragile ecosystem, which depends largely on the complementary performance of assortment of camel ecotypes in different seasons of the year. Overall, results show that pastoralists in the current study possess a repertoire of knowledge about their camels which, when harnessed and repackaged according to the peculiarities of their production environments, could enhance the efficiency of their production systems and livelihood."

The dromedary is the smallest of the three species of camel; adult males stand 1.8–2 m (5.9–6.6 ft) at the shoulder, while females are 1.7–1.9 m (5.6–6.2 ft) tall. Males typically weigh between 400 and 600 kg (880 and 1,320 lb), and females weigh between 300 and 540 kg (660 and 1,190 lb). The species' distinctive features include its long, curved neck, narrow chest, a single hump (compared with two on the Bactrian camel and wild Bactrian camel ), and long hairs on the throat, shoulders and hump. The coat is generally a shade of brown. The hump, 20 cm (7.9 in) tall or more, is made of fat bound together by fibrous tissue. Dromedaries are mainly active during daylight hours. They form herds of about 20 individuals, which are led by a dominant male. This camel feeds on foliage and desert vegetation; several adaptations, such as the ability to tolerate losing more than 30% of its total water content, allow it to thrive in its desert habitat."

In the parallel account in Mark, we are told that the young man came \"\"running\"\" up to Christ and \"\"knelt\"\" before him ( Mark 10:17 ), indicating a sense of urgency and respect. He then shows submissiveness and a willingness to be taught when he addresses Jesus as \"\"Good Teacher.\"\" This was not a typical form of address for the Jews at this time.

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

Since the camel's other claim to fame is that it can go for a very long time without water, many people assume that it stores water inside those humps, but that's a misconception. The two main kinds of domesticated camels are the Bactrian, which has two humps, and the dromedary or Arabian camel, which only has one. A camel's humps, which consist of fibrous tissue and fat, weigh up to 80 pounds each and when food is in short supply, the camel's body metabolizes the fat in the humps for nourishment. As Bactrian camels age, their humps often become flaccid and floppy. The dromedary's hump shrinks as it gets older but doesn't flop to one side."

"text": "\"The Sopwith Camel CMF Sopwith Camel Replica The Museum’s Sopwith Camel is often on display at shopping centres in the Fraser Valley. There are several questions that are often asked when the Camel is on display;“How come the engine turns when the propeller is moved?”“What is the little propeller on the strut used for?”“Why was the propeller not shot off when the pilot fired the guns?”Here are some interesting technical aspects of the Camel. Remember that in 1916 only 13 years had passed since the Wright Brothers flew a controllable aircraft. And the first international flight from France to Britain was as recent as 1909. For its day the Camel was as much a state-of-the-art fighting machine as the CF-18 is today. In 1916, the Germans controlled the skies over the trenches, and the English developed three fighters to regain control of the air war. The best and most famous of these three designs was the Sopwith Camel. Small and lightweight, the Camel represented the latest in fighter design at the time. The Sopwith Camel shot down 1,294 enemy aircraft during World War I, more than any other Allied fighter. However, it was so difficult to fly that more men lost their lives while learning to fly it than using it in combat."

"text": "Home > French Foods > French Cheese > Camembert Camembert Cheese de Normandie History, Description, and Recipes French Camembert cheese is made in the Pays d'Auge in the departments of Calvados, Manche, Orne and Eure. This region enjoys an oceanic climate, with fairly even year round temperatures and lots of rain. These conditions have created an abundant and varied grass land, perfect for grazing dairy cows and producing rich and nourishing Camembert de Normandie. Origin and History The makers of this French cheese tell the story of how it was first created in 1791 in the town of Camembert in Normandy. This was the time of the French Revolution and Marie Harel had given refuge to a priest who came from the town of Brie near Paris. According to the legend, it was he who let her in on the secrets of great cheese making in the Brie fashion. Hence the similarity between the two cheeses. Of course, in a land of happy cows, the Normans had been making cheese for many centuries and surely Madame Harel can only be part of the true history. Camembert cheese is a fairly delicate product and it took the invention of the emblematic balsa wood box in the late 19th century to seal its fate as one of France's favorites. This special box, which is still used today, protects the cheese but also allows it to breath."

"text": "What is cheese? The Codex Alimentarius provides global standards for the definition of cheese: Cheese is the ripened or unripened soft, semi-hard, hard, or extra-hard product, which may be coated, and in which the whey protein/casein ratio does not exceed that of milk, obtained by: (a) coagulating wholly or partly the protein of milk, skimmed milk, partly skimmed milk, cream, whey cream or buttermilk, or any combination of these materials, through the action of rennet or other suitable coagulating agents, and by partially draining the whey resulting from the coagulation, while respecting the principle that cheese-making results in a concentration of milk protein (in particular, the casein portion), and that consequently, the protein content of the cheese will be distinctly higher than the protein level of the blend of the above milk materials from which the cheese was made; and/or (b) processing techniques involving coagulation of the protein of milk and/or products obtained from milk which give an end-product with similar physical, chemical and organoleptic characteristics as the product defined under (a). In the United States, cheese is defined in the Code of Federal Regulations as:the fresh or matured product obtained by draining after coagulation of milk, cream, skimmed, or partly skimmed milk, or a combination of some or all of these products, and including any cheese that conforms to the requirements of the Food and Drug Administration for cheeses and related cheese products ( 21 CFR part 133 ). Milk is defined in the Pasteurized Milk Ordinance as the normal lacteal secretion, practically free of colostrum, obtained by the complete milking of one or more healthy hooved mammals. There are multiple ways to describe, organize and classify cheese. Now that we know what cheese is, how do we talk about it? There are multiple ways to describe, organize and classify cheese- including texture, milk type, and place of origin. Regardless of classification system, many varieties of cheese cross over from one category to another. For instance, a Gouda-style cheese can be sold to customers at many different ages, and therefore textures; can have a natural or waxed rind; and can be made from different milk types, and be produced in Europe and across the United States. Here are some of the commons ways that cheese is talked about, organized, and described."

The use of the term food-making process is used here to mean those food products that require the aide of fungi in their production. For example, the one with which you are most familiar is baked bread. The yeast is utilized in making the dough rise so that bread will come out light and fluffy. Without yeast, bread would be much denser and harder. Blue cheese would be another examples. Asian cultures, however, have a large varieties of such food, some of which have become well known in this country. This is possibly because larger number of Americans have become more adventurous in their dietary habits that has led to these types of food becoming more common place in our society. This is particularly true, in Hawai‘i, where there is a large Asian population. I have excluded mushrooms from such foods since they are the actual food product rather than being utilized to create another food product."

Let’s start with a basic precept: cheese is high maintenance. From production to storage to consumption, cheese demands the full attention of the cheesemaker, the cheesemonger and the cheese enthusiast. Cheese is not a food specially developed to have a long stable shelf life; you have to approach cheese storage with more patience (and perhaps a sense of adventure) than you may be used to devoting to other food products. Some background. From the minute that the cheesemaker separates the curds from the whey, cheese is in a continuous state of dehydration. Fresher cheeses such as ricotta or fromage blanc are moist, even runny cheeses. Age a cheese and you get a progressively harder and firmer product like a cheddar or a tomme. Throughout the maturation process, cheese breathes and exchanges moisture with the surrounding air. This process sounds a little creepy, but in fact nurtures all of the various organisms that make cheese so amazing."

Hard, very hard and semi-hard cheese will freeze, although some cheeses will be crumbly after freezing (but will still taste good). On the other hand, soft cheese does not freeze well, such as cottage cheese, ricotta cheese and cream cheese, so don't freeze these varieties.

Bill Overton asked on my blog posting Learning About Cheese, “Can you really eat the mold on Brie? I’m always afraid to eat it, but I have a friend who knows a lot about food, who says it’s okay to eat”. I’m not sure if Bill was referring to the outside rind (skin, crust) on Brie which is a mold in itself or if a mold develops on the outside skin. Let’s start by looking more closely at Brie. Brie is a soft-ripened cow’s mild cheese that is said to have a bloomy rind. It gets its name from the town it originated in France. The outside casing is a white mold that often has an ammonia smell to it that makes it unappealing to some. Brie is made much like other cheeses, that is rennet is added to raw milk, heated to the right temperature and then cast into molds and allowed to drain for hours. It is then removed from the molds, salted and sprayed with a “good” mold like Penicillium candidum."

"text": "How to keep your fine fromage Like a lot of other perishable foods, cheese is sensitive. And if you want to enjoy it again and again, it must be stored properly. As a rule, keep cheese in the refrigerator, (it’s always better to store as close to the bottom of the fridge as possible - the vegetable compartment is ideal), and remove 30 minutes to an hour before serving, as it is best enjoyed at room temperature. If the cheese is too warm or rests too long on the table it melts down: Brie or Camembert will “run away”. Or hard cheeses such as Gruyère or Comté will sweat and ooze oil, and even might smell too strong. Too cold, and the cheese will taste bland and inert –for instance Brie or St André would loose its original flavors. Either way, it won’t be appetizing – and that’s a letdown. Follow these simple guidelines and your cheese might just last until the fridge whispers your name in the middle of the night. Warp semi-hard and hard-pressed cheeses – such as Fol Epi or Charles Arnaud Morbier– in wax or parchment paper and again in foil or plastic wrap. These cheeses have already lost quite a bit of moisture, and you want to keep them from drying out any further."

In pregnant women, the infection can result in miscarriage, premature delivery, serious infection of the newborn, or even stillbirth. Listeriosis affects mainly pregnant women, newborns, the elderly, and adults with impaired immune systems. Healthy adults and children sometimes are infected with L. monocytogenes, but they rarely become seriously ill. Babies can be born with listeriosis if their mothers eat contaminated food during pregnancy. What causes listeriosis? L. monocytogenes is found in soil and water. Vegetables can become contaminated from the soil or from manure used as fertilizer. Animals can carry the bacteria and can contaminate meats and dairy products."

When diving into cheese making for the first time, you may be overwhelmed by the variety of cheese cultures to choose from. Understanding what a cheese culture is, how it works, and how to choose one can help home cheese making seem less daunting. Most cheese recipes take the guesswork out by listing the specific cheese culture needed, but when you are ready to experiment a bit or create your own recipe, this understanding of cheese cultures will also come in handy. WHAT IS A CHEESE CULTURE? A cheese culture is a group of specific bacteria strains put together (usually by a culture company) for making a specific cheese. Most cheese cultures work in similar way but are classified based on the temperature at which they work. Outside of temperature classifications, cheese cultures are also differentiated by the strains of bacteria they contain."

Matt Biddulph/Wikimedia CC 2.0Cheese in Europe is made with many old traditions which are still carried on today. The rind develops during the ripening process and protects the cheese from drying out and unwanted mold. It also gives each cheese its particular taste and smell. Cheese rind develops when the pressed cheese forms are laid in a salt brine and/or sprinkled with salt. Soft cheeses are only in the brine a half hour or so, while hard cheeses may be brined for up to three days. The salt enters the surface of the cheese and pulls out water, which makes the outer surface of the cheese hard. After the salt water bath, cheese is usually ripened in a cheese cellar under conditions specific to each type of cheese. The cheese surface dries out more and becomes even harder. Also during this time, the cheese is treated; it is turned regularly, brushed and washed."

If you are like me, this is a regular occurrence with not only milk, but most food. I’ve found that some expiration dates mean very little; my organic milk seems like it can last at least a week past its expiration date. For other foods, such as cottage cheese, the date seems very accurate (there is nothing like sour cottage cheese). For other foods it is more difficult to know. How long will my can of corn stay good? What about the Gouda cheese with the little mold spots on it? Can I just cut the spots off? What about “sell by” dates and “use-by dates?” What about the stuff in my freezer?"

Plant-based rennet is acceptable but not widely used; in most cases, cardoon thistle is used to coagulate the milk. This is found most often in Spanish and Portuguese cheeses. Microbial rennet isn't used much in cheesemaking because it's unpredictable and can produce unwanted flavors, like bitterness. And genetically engineered/fermentation produced rennet is considered okay by some vegetarians and not by others because it originates from the cell of an animal. Unfortunately, the FDA does not require cheesemakers to specify what type of rennet they use. However, many cheesemakers who use plant-based rennet do choose to share this information. A good cheese store will be able to provide information about which cheeses are vegetarian."

"text": "Vacuum Sealing Could Be Hazardous to Your Health Tess Pennington Ready Nutrition25 Comments Vacuum sealing food has taken this country by storm. The ability to divide and seal food in a low oxygen environment in order to prolong its freshness and storage time is a prepper’s dream. Vacuum sealing, or ROP (Reduced Oxygen Packaging) slows down the process of spoilage by reducing atmospheric oxygen, and creates an anaerobic environment that limits the growth of aerobic bacteria or fungi, and prevents the evaporation of volatile components. Vacuum sealing is often used in combination with other packaging and food processing techniques. As effective as this food storage source seems, it could put your health at risk. There are certain types of bacteria that prefer low oxygen environments and will grow on foods that have been vacuum sealed. Knowing the dangers that these bacteria possess can help you avoid them and keep your food storage safe. Botulism and Listeria Monocytogenes Even in an oxygen-depleted environment, Anaerobic organisms can proliferate, potentially causing food safety problems. Botulism and Listeria monocytogenes are examples of pathogenic bacteria that cause food borne illnesses from growing and thriving in an anaerobic environment. Moreover, these bacteria have the capacity of growing at a faster rate in vacuum sealed foods due to the oxygen-free environment as well as the fact that these bacteria are not in competition with other spoilage bacteria."

Make sure you know the important facts about which foods you should avoid or take precautions with when you're pregnant. Cheeses to avoid in pregnancy Soft cheeses with white rinds Don't eat mould-ripened soft cheese (cheeses with a white rind) such as brie and camembert. This includes mould-ripened soft goats' cheese, such as chèvre. These cheeses are only safe to eat in pregnancy if they've been cooked. Soft blue cheeses You should also avoid soft blue-veined cheeses such as danish blue, gorgonzola and roquefort. Soft blue cheeses are only safe to eat in pregnancy if they've been cooked. It's advised pregnant women avoid some soft cheeses because they're less acidic than hard cheeses and contain more moisture, which means they can be an ideal environment for harmful bacteria, such as listeria, to grow in. Although infection with listeria (listeriosis) is rare, it's important to take special precautions in pregnancy – even a mild form of the illness in a pregnant woman can lead to miscarriage, stillbirth or severe illness in a newborn baby.

Follow 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Cammed would mean that the original camshaft has been changed to a different one. Camshafts have egg shaped lobes that press against valve stems to open them. The time of the maximum opening and its duration will affect how the engine runs. Ported generally means that the holes the air enters through and that the exhaust exits out have been enlarged and smoothed so that the airflow is greater. Internal combustion engines are sometimes referred to as an air pump.

Roller cams don't go flat like flat tappet cams do, especially these days where the EPA forced the oil companies to remove zinc from the oil. Zinc acted like a \"\"cushion\"\" between the cam lobe and the bottom of the lifter, kind of like Tetraethyl lead we used to have in our gasoline acted like a \"\"cushion\"\" for the valves and seats. When the lead was removed from gas, valves lost that cushion and people began having valve seat problems until hardened seats came about. Now we're seeing a large amount of older, flat tappet engines having cam lobes get wiped-off because the zinc cushion has been removed from the oil. Roller cams don't need that cushion so they aren't really affected. Roller lifters can be re-used over and over again. The ramp speed on the cam is lightning fast compared to a flat tappet cam, and the lobe profile is awesome which only equates to making more power."

"text": "Cam Newton drops some weight, looking for “edge”Posted by Darin Gantt on May 29, 2013, 1:34 PM EDTAPCam Newton said he didn’t need to be part of the conversation about the league’s fastest quarterback, a title which Michael Vick thinks he still owns. But Newton has tried to streamline himself regardless, dropping 12 pounds from last season, down to 243. He joked Wednesday that he needed to double-check that number after eating wings last night, but said the weight loss wasn’t necessarily designed to increase his mobility. “It was just a personal goal that I set for myself,” Newton said. “ I’m not going to go into what it really meant because looking at my body from afar you really couldn’t tell, . . .“It’s just me challenging myself to have an edge going into the season. ”In a perfect world, Newton would be running it less, not more this year anyway. The Panthers’ offense improved last year when they got away from as much read option, and leaned toward a more traditional run game (for a team with many running backs, what a concept). He’s still capable of big plays, and the Panthers should utilize him. But keeping him upright and throwing will be more important to their success, and having him focused on improving as a quarterback (whether nutritionally or otherwise) can’t be viewed as a negative."

The Yi Home Camera 2 boasts 11 IR LEDs —also a best on this list for indoor cameras—to capture and reconstruct images in the dark. What I like about Yi is that it’s essentially a more affordable version of the Nest Cam and allows for local storage using a micro SD card. Knocks on Yi Home Camera 2 come from its less-versatile design—because it’s unable to disconnect from it’s mounting bracket, like Nest—and its lack of cloud storage capability.

"text": "Tactics Bulletproof Bow Tuningby Dave Dolbee | October 28th, 2010 5 Comments Properly tuning your bow could spell the difference between shooting your next big buck and shooting at it. By Dave Dolbee Bow tuning is about as real as Snow White is to most archers. They think that it is either a fantasy to tune their own bow, or they hope the fairy tale will come true and Prince Charming will ride up and do it for them. What they usually end up with is someone from the Flintstones whose knowledge dates back to the Stone Age, and they are worse off than when they started: Their bow still isn’t tuned, and they are more confused than ever. Here are 12 simple steps to bulletproof bow tuning that any archer can do themselves with a few simple tools. I should first note that you should not attempt to tune a new bow straight out of the box. The strings and cables will stretch as you start shooting, and any tuning that you do will be out the window 10 to 15 arrows later. The same is true of a bow that has just had a new string or cable put on. Shoot the bow, break it in and, most important, make sure that you are familiar with the bow and how it feels from the beginning of the draw all the way through the recoil after the shot before you try to do any serious tuning. SELECTING THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT Most bowhunters these days are shooting mechanical releases that not only provide greater accuracy but also give the archer more leeway when selecting an arrow."

Contrary to what a lot of people think, cam \"\"timing\"\" and ignition \"\"timing\"\" have nothing to do with each other, anymore than a timing \"\"belt\"\" and a fan \"\"belt\"\" have anything to do with each other. They just happen to share a common word of \"\"timing\"\" but that word is in a completely different context from each other. Cam timing is a relationship between where the cam is indexed at (phased) with the crank. When it is referred-to as \"\"straight-up\"\" or at \"\"zero\"\", it means it is degree for degree in line with the TDC index of the crank, where the cam manufacturer wanted the cam to be at. It isn't advanced, and it isn't retarded in relationship with the crank. Advancing the cam opens the intake valve sooner, which brings the power curve down to a little lower RPM. In other words, advancing the cam 2, 3 or 4 degrees will make the cam's power curve come-on sooner. More sooner for each degree more you advance it (more or less anyway) This is ideal for things like trucks that need \"\"grunt power\"\" to get moving, or for cars with engines that don't make enough low-end torque to \"\"get-up and go\"\" off the line better, such as street cars, autocross cars, short track cars, etc. It's a bad situation if you have too much low-end power and can’t control the tire traction."

The most meaningful statement you can make about power production is that it all starts with cylinder heads that can flow large quantities of air. But having the greatest flowing heads counts for zero if the valves are not opened sufficiently or at the right time in relation to the crankshaft’s rotation, and that very important function falls to the camshaft. The problem is, if you are something of a novice at this engine business, just about everything to do with cams and valvetrains looks complex, and the truth is, it’s that and more. If cam and valvetrain design at the top level is in your future, you had better thinkin terms of a Ph. D. in mechanical engineering. OK, so most of you are not looking to do that, but would like to understand cams and valvetrains sufficiently to make truly informed power-generating decisions. Being able to do so can easily mean choosing a cam for a typical street/strip small-block that will make 20-30 lb-ft and 20-30 hp more than your buddy who bought a generic grind out of a catalog solely on the basis of duration. ( If it’s bigger, it must be better, right?) If that 20-30 extra lb-ft and hp are important to you, then what you are about to read will give you the knowledge you need to get it."

We’ve got the answers—the Summit Racing tech department tackles your automotive-related conundrums. This week, we’re covering rocker arm ratio and how it affects performance. S. B. • Atlanta, GAQ: I want to purchase a set of COMP Cams rocker arms for my 327-powered 1966 Chevy Nova. What is the difference between 1.5- and 1.6-ratio rocker arms? Does an increase in rocker arm ratio improve engine performance? A: The lobe lift of the camshaft is multiplied by the ratio of the rocker arm to determine the valve lift. For instance, a cam with a .320-inch lobe lift and a 1.5-ratio rocker arm will have .480 inches of valve lift (.320 inches x 1.5 = .480 inches). If you were to install 1.6-ratio rocker arms, the valve lift would increase to .512 inches (.320 inches x 1.6 = .512 inches)."

The peacock flounder can change its pattern and colours to match its environment. A soldier applying camouflage face paint; both helmet and jacket are disruptively patterned. Camouflage is the use of any combination of materials, coloration, or illumination for concealment, either by making animals or objects hard to see ( crypsis ), or by disguising them as something else ( mimesis ). Examples include the leopard 's spotted coat, the battledress of a modern soldier, and the leaf-mimic katydid 's wings. A third approach, motion dazzle, confuses the observer with a conspicuous pattern, making the object visible but momentarily harder to locate. The majority of camouflage methods aim for crypsis, often through a general resemblance to the background, high contrast disruptive coloration, eliminating shadow, and countershading. In the open ocean, where there is no background, the principal methods of camouflage are transparency, silvering, and countershading, while the ability to produce light is among other things used for counter-illumination on the undersides of cephalopods such as squid. Some animals, such as chameleons and octopuses, are capable of actively changing their skin pattern and colours, whether for camouflage or for signalling."

In a savanna, the trees are more scattered than in the forest, which allows the grass to thrive. There are savannas all over the earth—in Africa, Asia, South America, and Australia. As with any biome, the savanna presents certain conditions that animal and plant life must adapt to in order to survive. A dry season is one characteristic of a savanna biome. Animals adapt to the shortage of water and food through various ways, including migrating (moving to another area) and hibernating until the season is over. Grazing animals, like gazelles and zebras, feed on grasses and often use camouflage to protect themselves from predators when they are roaming in the open. Some animals, such as small mammals and rodents, use camouflage to blend in with their surroundings and have grass-colored tan fur. These small animals also avoid predators by burrowing underground and by being nocturnal (active during nighttime). Download Project Add to Collection Grade First Grade Subject Science Earth & Space Science African savanna animals like zebras live in herds and are protected from natural predators like lions because their striped pattern makes it difficult to pick out a single zebra from the group (which confuses the lion because it cannot focus on a single target to attack)."

Perhaps their most well known adaptation is their opposable thumbs on both their hands and feet. Unlike other animals, this gives them the ability to grasp things in one hand. Their fur serves three purposes; Keeps them warm, camouflages them in the rainforest, and it also protects them from insects like mosquitoes because of its thickness. Another adaptation is their stocky build and elongated arms. This shows that they once may have been a tree dwelling primate, but have since adapted to life on the forest floor.

Plate from Henry Walter Bates (1862) illustrating Batesian mimicry between Dismorphia species (top row, third row) and various Ithomiini ( Nymphalidae, second row, bottom row)In evolutionary biology, mimicry is a similarity of one organism, usually an animal, to another that has evolved because the resemblance is selectively favoured by the behaviour of a shared signal receiver that can respond to both. [ 1] Mimicry may evolve between different species, or between individuals of the same species. Often, mimicry evolves to protect a species from predators, making it an antipredator adaptation, [2] the resemblances that evolve in mimicry can be in appearance, behaviour, sound or scent. Mimicry may be to the advantage of both organisms that share a resemblance, in which case it is a mutualism, or mimicry can be to the detriment of one, making it parasitic or competitive. Mimicry occurs when a group of organisms, [a] the mimics, evolve to share perceived characteristics with another group, the models. The evolutionary convergence between groups is driven by the selective action of a signal-receiver or dupe. [ 3] Birds, for example, use sight to identify palatable insects, whilst avoiding the noxious ones, over time, palatable insects may evolve to resemble noxious ones, making them mimics and the noxious ones models. In the case of mutualism, sometimes both groups are referred to as \"\"co-mimics\"\", it is often thought that models must be more abundant than mimics, but this is not always so. ["

"text": "\"News Army Balks at Camouflage Price Tag Military.com By Matthew Cox A year has passed since Multi Cam won the U. S. Army's camouflage competition, but makers of the pattern said the service still refuses to pay what the market demands for more effective camouflage. Sgt. Major of the Army Raymond Chandler said the Army was compelled to abandon its plan for replacing its ineffective Universal Camouflage Pattern when Congress ordered the Pentagon to stop the services from branding their ranks with unique camouflage uniforms. Army uniform officials are now considering a new camouflage strategy, one that involves more testing and possibly adopting the Marine Corps desert and woodland patterns for specific operational environments. But now new information offers a different explanation for the Army's reluctance to adopt Multi Cam pattern. Crye Precision LLC, the inventor of the Multi Cam pattern, just released an account of the Army's negotiating techniques, beginning when Product Manager Clothing and Individual Equipment officials contacted Crye Precision last May. \"\"Crye was advised by PM-CIE leadership via teleconference on May 1, 2013 that its submission had won the final program phase of the camouflage improvement effort, and that a formal announcement would be forthcoming,\"\" the Crye Precision release states. The Army had already been purchasing Multi Cam uniforms and equipment for troops in Afghanistan since 2010. But Army officials were surprised that vendors planned to charge up to 20 percent more for Multi Cam uniforms and equipment than what the Army was used to paying for clothing and gear printed in UCP, Crye officials said. \"\" Army representatives approached Crye to discuss the market's pricing of Multi Cam gear (such as uniforms) and told Crye that it would have to deliver 'significant cost savings,'\"\" Crye officials said. Caleb Crye, executive director of Crye Precision, said the Army doesn't believe that Crye Precision does not control the prices vendors charge for Multi Cam."

' disguise' [1] ), is a military doctrine developed from the start of the twentieth century. The doctrine covers a broad range of measures for military deception, from camouflage to denial and deception. Deceptive measures include concealment, imitation with decoys and dummies, manoeuvres intended to deceive, denial, and disinformation. The 1944 Soviet Military Encyclopedia refers to \"\"means of securing combat operations and the daily activities of forces; a complexity of measures, directed to mislead the enemy regarding the presence and disposition of forces...\"\" [2] Later versions of the doctrine also include strategic, political, and diplomatic means including manipulation of \"\"the facts\"\", situation and perceptions to affect the media and opinion around the world, so as to achieve or facilitate tactical, strategic, national and international goals. Deception contributed to major Soviet victories including the Battle of Stalingrad, the Battle of Kursk, and Operation Bagration (in Belarus ): in these cases, surprise was achieved despite very large concentrations of force, both in attack and in defence. The doctrine has also been put into practice in peacetime, with denial and deception operations in events such as the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Prague Spring, and the annexation of Crimea.

Predator animals need the flesh of the animals that they kill to survive. Weasels, hawks, wolves, mountain lions, and grizzly bears are all predators. Predators are carnivores, which means their diet consists of meat. Some predators, such as coyotes and bears, are also scavengers, meaning they will eat the carcasses of animals that they didn't hunt themselves. Opposite of predator, you have prey — the animals predators hunt and eat. Prey animals can be anything from the smallest insect to a 1400 pound bull moose. Some prey animals are herbivores, meaning they eat plants."

Out of three choices, the maple leaf design by George Stanley, [2] based on the flag of the Royal Military College of Canada, was selected. The flag made its first official appearance on February 15, 1965; the date is now celebrated annually as National Flag of Canada Day.

It is issued when winds have reached, or are expected to reach within 12 hours, a speed marginally less than gale force. A Small Craft Advisory may also be issued when sea or lake ice exists that could be hazardous to small boats. [ 1]The insignia that denotes a small craft advisory is one red, triangular flag (two such flags, one placed above the other, signify a gale warning ). The term wind advisory is used in place of small craft advisory when winds of the same force occur at, or are forecast for, inland locations. A lake wind advisory is issued for winds just below this range, because unobstructed winds across the open waters of a lake are normally faster than across land. The wind speed that triggers the advisory has changed over time. Until the late 1960s, the threshold was 32 to 38 miles per hour (or 28 to 33 knots ). At some point, the lower limit was reduced to 23 miles per hour (20 knots). Today, however, most places have standardized on 25 to 38 miles per hour (22 to 33 knots), encompassing the combined ranges of forces 6 and 7 on the Beaufort scale."

See Example ( s )EXAMPLES Collected via e-mail, 2003There's been some speculation that the eleven points on the maple leaf on the flag of Canada, nine above and two below, stood in some way for the number of provinces and territories in Canada. Others have speculated the 11 points represent 10 provinces and one country, but again, this is only rumour. RATINGFalse ORIGINIn the lifetime of anyone younger than about fifty, the Canadian flag has always been its current simple, yet bold and distinctive, red-and-white maple leaf design. And those who weren’t around for the Canadian flag debate of the mid-1960s may find it difficult to believe how controversial the adoption of this seemingly innocuous flag truly was; how contentious and divisive a move it was for Prime Minister Lester Pearson to stand before a Royal Canadian Legion convention in May 1964 and say: “I believe most sincerely that it is now time for Canadians to unfurl a flag that is truly distinctive and truly national in character; as Canadian as the maple leaf which should be its dominant design, a flag easily identifiable as Canada’s; a flag which cannot be mistaken for the emblem of any other country; a flag of the future which honours also the past; Canada’s own and only Canada’s. ”At the time of Confederation in 1867, Canada’s official flag was the Royal Union flag, commonly known as the Union Jack. Over the course of the next century, the Red Ensign — a red flag with a Union Jack in the canton and the Canadian coat of arms in the fly — became the de facto (if unofficial) Canadian flag: (Not until 1924 did an order-in-council sanction the flying of the Red Ensign from Canadian government buildings abroad, and another twenty years elapsed before a second order-in-council authorized its use on federal government buildings within Canada. ) As the issue of a new national flag for Canada was raised anew in 1964, all the usual difficulties involved in choosing a suitable design resurfaced. What kind of flag could both honor Canada’s historical past, look forward to its future, and appeal to a majority of modern Canadians? What elements would satisfy Canadians of both English heritage and French heritage, as well as those who were neither?"

This is a normal reaction on your part, since you live in Canada and the cannabis laws are not defined. For that reason, you have to find out what the requirements are for a medical cannabis patient. Are you already breaking the law? How do you find a cannabis doctor supportive of or specializing in medical cannabis? These are some of the questions that many of you want to know. The License Canada does have MMAR cultivators, but the one lawful way that a Canadian resident can buy medical cannabis is from a licensed producer operating under MMPR. The federal government in Ottawa is the agency (Office of Medical Cannabis) that provides marijuana licenses to producers. A rigorous screening takes place to obtain a cannabis license to produce marijuana. Licensed producers have to also go through a monthly inspection process to ensure that product inventory tracking is exceptionally maintained."

How has backfill methodology evolved over the years? A. Backfill has been around for a long time. Fifty years ago only sand and water was used to fill in areas left open from ore extraction. But since then, other products and new technologies have been developed. Novel rock mixing systems and paste fills are now used.

How can we prove this fact? Calculation of honey production by one honey bee Many facts are taken for granted and the proof is often lost in the mists of time. It may seem hard to believe that a honey bee flies round the world twice for one pound of honey but the numbers back up this assertion. The values used for the calculation are averages and the numbers are rounded. To discover how many flowers and how far a honey bee flies to gather a pound of honey, we need to know: How many flowers a bee visits to gather one load of nectar? C. R. Ribbands (1949) determined that one bee can visit several hundred flowers for a load of sweet clover and up to 1,110-1,446 for a load of Limnanthes nectar. Since the number will vary by size of the flower and quantity of nectar secreted, we will assume a honey bee taps fewer flowers than she visits and we have used a minimum of 100 flowers for our calculation.sparrow (Mediterranean Sparrow) · 1 decade ago2 0 Comment Asker's rating One Pound Of Honey Source (s):https://shorte.im/a0Pz Xhamon · 1 year ago0 0 Commenthello Pami :-) HONEY TRIVIA How many flowers must honey bees tap to make one pound of honey? - Two million.

Most people’s response to radioactivity is one of immediate fear and confusion and I can’t say I blame them. There is something very frightening about a substance that shoots off invisible rays that can kill you if you’re exposed to enough of them. However, most people really don’t need to worry about being exposed to large amounts of radiation in their lifetimes. That said we are all exposed to radiation all the time. There is no escaping radioactive materials. They are in the food we eat, the water we drink and the air we breathe. This constant exposure to radiation is called background radiation and there is simply no way to avoid it. The largest portion of background radiation comes from the radioactive gas, radon, which composes around 50-60% of our background radiation exposure. Radon is one of the most innocuous, yet ubiquitous radionuclides around and it is crucial that everyone be conscious that we all inhale some radon and what this means for our health."

( AP File Photo/North Dakota Petroleum Council) ( CNSNews.com) – Due to the highest level of domestic crude oil production in 45 years, oil imports will make up less than a quarter of U. S. consumption next year, according to a forecast by the Energy Information Administration (EIA). In August, “total U. S. crude oil production averaged an estimated 8.6 million barrels per day,” which was “the highest monthly production since July 1986,” according to EIA's “ Short Term Outlook ,” which was released September 9th. EIA expects domestic oil production to increase to an average 9.5 million barrels per day in 2015, which would be the highest level since before the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries’ (OPEC) oil embargo in 1973. At that time, the federal government placed a ban on exporting U. S.-produced oil abroad. “If achieved, the 2015 forecast would be the highest annual average crude oil production since 1970,” the EIA forecast stated. As a result, U. S. oil imports are expected to fall to just 21 percent of total domestic consumption in 2015, representing a 39 percent decrease over the past decade. “The share of total U. S. petroleum and other liquids consumption met by net imports fell from 60% in 2005 to an average of 32% in 2013. EIA expects the net import share to decline to 21% in 2015, which would be the lowest level since 1968,” EIA reported.ype=\"\"node\"\" title=\"\"Net imports Earlier this year, EIA’s Annual Energy Outlook predicted for the first time that the U. S. will be energy self-sufficient by 2037. The surge in domestic oil production was made possible by horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing techniques that make it economically feasible toextract large volumes of oil and natural gas from low-permeable shale, sandstone and limestone formations in more than 30 states, including the well-known Bakken, Marcellus and Eagle Ford formations in South Dakota, Pennsylvania and Texas, according to EIA."

The class will be in place for April 1 “to allow the dairy industry time to prepare for implementation,” says commission chair Geri Kamenz. Previously it was proposed to be in place for Feb. 1. The commission still has to approve the final regulatory text for creating the new class, and that will be done within the next week. Both Dairy Farmers and the council, which represents Ontario dairy processors, deemed the advisory committee as the appropriate forum to talk about how the new class will be implemented in Ontario, Kamenz says. The commission chairs the committee. In Canada, raw milk sold to processors is classified and priced based on end use. The classes range from fluid milks and creams (Class 1) to milk used for further processing (Class 5, also known as the special classes). The price of milk in the special classes is based on world prices. The new ingredient class in Ontario would work the same way as the special classes and be based on world prices."

S. market, Alberta is getting just over $50 a barrel for our oil,” Redford said. “ This bitumen bubble means that the Alberta government will collect about $6 billion less in revenue this year alone. To put that in context, that’s equivalent to all of our government spending on education each year. ”Redford’s fireside chat was intended to prepare citizens of her province for service cuts and possible tax increases expected on budget day, March 7. But the bitumen bubble’s effect will reach far beyond the borders of the Wild Rose Province. Two weeks after Redford’s remarks, federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty told reporters lower government revenues follow from lower commodity prices like “night follows the day,” meaning a hard line of spending as he approaches his own coming budget."

( Image Credit: Ben Young Landis)My local brasserie hosts a French conversation happy hour each week, and “animals” was the theme of our most recent session. Our linguistic ark covered the land, air and sea: renard is fox, lapin is rabbit, canard is duck , dindon is a tom turkey, and so forth. When we reached les poissons, one name stood out: loup de mer — the “wolf of the sea”. The European seabass ( Dicentrarchus labrax) is another classic fish of Europe, known by a multitude of names . Loup de mer and bar commun are among its French names, while in German it is the Europäischer Wolfsbarsch . In Spain it can be listed as lubina or róbalo, and in Greek, Hebrew and Turkish, the names lavráki, lavrak, and levrek refer to the same fish, respectively. In the United States of late, many restaurants have taken to adapting its Italian moniker — branzino, or branzini in plural, alternatively spelled bronzino and bronzini. According to the Italian Wikipedia , branzino is used in northern Italy, whereas spigola is used in peninsular Italy, ragno in Tuscany, and pesce lupo elsewhere. In fact, we can find this fish in the same 1st Century Roman mosaic where we found the previously discussed dorade royale — and also in the most recent season of Mad Men, where Don Draper’s paramour Sylvia Rosen orders it at an Italian restaurant."

Share Flipboard Email Print French colors of the rainbow. Henrik Sorensen/Prestige/Getty Imagesby Camille Chevalier-Karfis Updated October 30, 2017The French have long been in love with color, and they have many names for pure and nuanced color. Here are some of the most common French colors, plus color variations and other extras for anyone who loves color as much as the French do. There are, of course, many more French colors than we have listed here, especially in French fashion and in French beauty products like makeup and hair color. But this will give you a taste of French colors and the rules that govern their usage. Let's start at the beginning with la couleur, which is a feminine noun, as in les couleurs primaires (\"\"primary colors\"\") and les couleurs complémentaires (\"\"complementary colors\"\"). The colors themselves are adjectives describing something, such as une jolie couleur verte (\"\"a pretty shade of green\"\"). The Rules of Color Agreement Some colors (remember, they're adjectives) agree with the noun they modify; others don't. According to the rules of color agreement, colors based on the names of fruit, flowers, precious stones, metals, and other elements of nature are invariable (\"\"invariable,\"\" do not change form), as are compound colors consisting of two or more colors (a blue green chair) or a color with an adjective of intensity (a dark blue chair)."

In addition to that, the French do not seem to be familiar with the concept of \"\" conflict of interest \"\" : see my column. Emigration: one of the current problems in France is that the flow of people emigrating has become significant :either for tax reasons : wealthy people refusing to pay ISF , the tax on wealth, and moving to Belgium or Switzerland (several hundred a year)or for a better life : young well-educated professionals wishing to find a better paid job in London or in New York more rapidly (10 to 20,000 a year)As one pundit said : \"\" The French keep hunting the rich and wonder why they fly away. They are the only hunters surprised to see the game trying to escape. \"\" Envy : during the 2007 presidential campaign, the Secretary general of the Socialist Party (François Hollande) was asked about the policy of the Left if its candidate was elected.

When the journalist asked at what income he considered somebody wealthy, he said 4,000 Euros a month (4 ,500 $), which is only about twice the average French income.

A canard is an aeronautical arrangement wherein a small forewing or foreplane is placed forward of the main wing of a fixed-wing aircraft. The term \"\"canard\"\" may be used to describe the aircraft itself, the wing configuration or the foreplane. [ 1] [2] [3]Despite the use of a canard surface on the first powered aeroplane, the Wright Flyer of 1903, canard designs were not built in quantity until the appearance of the Saab Viggen jet fighter in 1967. The aerodynamics of the canard configuration are complex and require careful analysis. Rather than use the conventional tailplane configuration found on most aircraft, an aircraft designer may adopt the canard configuration to reduce the main wing loading, to better control the main wing airflow, or to increase the aircraft’s maneuverability, especially at high angles of attack or during a stall. [ citation needed] Canard foreplanes, whether used in a canard or three-surface configuration, have important consequences on the aircraft’s longitudinal equilibrium, static and dynamic stability characteristics.

Airplanes come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and wing configurations. The broad spectrum of uses for airplanes includes recreation, transportation of goods and people, military, and research. Commercial aviation is a massive industry involving the flying of tens of thousands of passengers daily on airliners. Most airplanes are flown by a pilot on board the aircraft, but some are designed to be remotely or computer-controlled. The Wright brothers invented and flew the first airplane in 1903, recognized as \"\"the first sustained and controlled heavier-than-air powered flight\"\".

During its display, the 4++ generation aircraft has showcased some almost impossible manoeuvres, demonstrating unbelievable low-speed handling authority. Ok, it’s not stealth (even if some sources say it can detect stealth planes like the F-35 at a distance of over 90 kilometers), but once engaged in a WVR (Within Visual Range) air-to-air engagement, it can freely maneuver to point the nose and weapons in any direction, to achieve the proper position for a kill.

According to different sources, 45% of all English words have a French origin. [ 1] This suggests that 80,000 words should appear in this list; this list, however, only includes words imported directly from French, such as both joy and joyous, and does not include derivatives formed in English of words borrowed from French, including joyful, joyfulness, partisanship, and parenthood. It also excludes both combinations of words of French origin with words whose origin is a language other than French — e. g.: ice cream, sunray, jellyfish, killjoy, lifeguard, and passageway — and English-made combinations of words of French origin — e. g.: grapefruit ( grape + fruit ), layperson ( lay + person ), mailorder, magpie, marketplace, surrender, petticoat, and straitjacket. This list also excludes words that come from French but were introduced into the English language via a language other than French, which include commodore, domineer, filibuster, ketone, loggia, lotto, mariachi, monsignor, oboe, paella, panzer, picayune, ranch, vendue, and veneer. Although French is mainly from Latin (which accounts for about 60% of English vocabulary either directly or via a Romance language ), it also includes words from Gaulish and Germanic languages (especially Old Frankish ). Since English is of Germanic origin, words that have entered English from the Germanic elements in French might not strike the eye as distinctively from French. Conversely, as Latin gave many derivatives to both the English and the French languages, ascertaining that a given Latinate derivative did not come to the English language via French can be difficult in a few cases.

The single-seat SS.2 had a canard wing configuration, fixed undercarriage and was powered with a 2-cylinder Keller engine rated at 16 hp (11.93 k W). The SS.2 first flew in 1935, and one of the two prototypes was converted into a two-seater with a larger 38 hp (28.34 k W) CNA II engine built by Compagnia Nazionale Aeronautica. This new aircraft first took to the air on 2 October 1937 and was officially revealed in Milan at an international air exposition and the small fixed-undercarriage SS.2 was sent to Passignano for evaluation. Experience with this machine and the study of its aerodynamics led Stefanutti to design a canard style interceptor and air superiority fighter, designated SS.4, very similar in layout to the SS.2 and SS.3. [ 1]The SS.3 had a span of 12.77 m (41.9 ft) and was 6.00 m (19.7 ft) long with an overall height of 2.01 m (6.6 ft). With a 16 hp (12 k W) engine it was capable of a maximum speed of 87 mph (140 km/h) and able to reach an altitude of 13,120 ft (4,000 m) altitude. Stalling speed was 34 mph (55 km/h): [1]A prototype SS.4 was built at the Società Aeronautica Italiana - Ambrosini factory in Passignano sul Trasimeno, Umbria."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Stall (flight))navigation search Airflow separating from an airfoil at a high angle of attack, as occurs at the stall. In fluid dynamics, a stall is a reduction in the lift coefficient generated by a foil as angle of attack increases. [ 1] This occurs when the critical angle of attack of the foil is exceeded. The critical angle of attack is typically about 15 degrees, but it may vary significantly depending on the fluid, foil, and Reynolds number. Stalls in fixed-wing flight are often experienced as a sudden reduction in lift as the pilot increases the wing's angle of attack and exceeds its critical angle of attack (which may be due to slowing down below stall speed in level flight). A stall does not mean that the engine (s) have stopped working, or that the aircraft has stopped moving — the effect is the same even in an unpowered glider aircraft. Vectored thrust in manned and unmanned aircraft is used to surpass the stall limit, thereby giving rise to post-stall technology. [ 2] [3]Because stalls are most commonly discussed in connection with aviation, this article discusses stalls as they relate mainly to aircraft, in particular fixed-wing aircraft. The principles of stall discussed here translate to foils in other fluids as well.

So in 1979, Beech decided to begin work on a new pressurized, all-composite twin-engine business turboprop, a brand new generation of aircraft based on latest building materials technology and a bold new, innovative design. Thus began the most ambitious new development project in the history of general aviation, what would become the Beechcraft Starship. The leading design had its engines mounted in the rear to reduce cabin noise. It had an aft-positioned main wing on which to mount the engines and balance lifting forces. A conventional rudder would have made a huge sounding board for the propellers, so instead, control of the yaw axis and vertical stabilizer function was assigned to tip-sails on each wingtip."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Vertical and horizontal stabilizer units on an Airbus A380 airliner An aircraft stabilizer is an aerodynamic surface, typically including one or more movable control surfaces, [1] [2] that provides longitudinal (pitch) and/or directional (yaw) stability and control. A stabilizer can feature a fixed or adjustable structure on which any movable control surfaces are hinged, or it can itself be a fully movable surface such as a stabilator. Depending on the context, \"\"stabilizer\"\" may sometimes describe only the front part of the overall surface. In the conventional aircraft configuration, separate vertical (fin) and horizontal ( tailplane) stabilizers form an empennage positioned at the tail of the aircraft. Other arrangements of the empennage, such as the V-tail configuration, feature stabilizers which contribute to a combination of longitudinal and directional stabilization and control. Longitudinal stability and control may be obtained with other wing configurations, including canard, tandem wing and tailless aircraft. Some types of aircraft are stabilized with electronic flight control; in this case, fixed and movable surfaces located anywhere along the aircraft may serve as active motion dampers or stabilizers.

[ 4] The vertical force exerted by the stabilizer to this effect varies with flight conditions, in particular according to the aircraft lift coefficient and wing flaps deflection which both affect the position of the center of lift, and with the position of the aircraft center of gravity (which changes with aircraft loading). Transonic flight makes special demands on horizontal stabilizers, since the crossing of the sound barrier is associated with a sudden move aft of the center of lift."

Table of Contents Learning Artificial Insemination Heat Detection and Beef AI Programs Heat Detection Efficiency Aids to Heat Detection Timing of Artificial Insemination Semen Handling Tank Management Retrieving Semen During Insemination Insemination Process Sanitary technique Many producers of purebred and commercial beef cattle can profitably utilize artificial insemination (AI) on virgin heifers or on the cow herd or both. Success with artificial insemination requires attention to detail in all areas of herd management. One of the most important factors affecting the success of the program is the manager’s attitude. He or she must totally desire to make AI work and instill this commitment into each link in the chain of management decision. The weakest link sets the level of success of the operation. Should any aspect of management become subpar, AI conception rates will be reduced, most likely to the extent it will cancel many of the benefits the technique offers. Many managerial decisions relative to feeding, facilities, fences and corrals, equipment, sire selection, will be necessary. Both a sound health program and good nutrition are requirements of any breeding program but become an absolute essential ingredient for artificial insemination. In addition, more labor and skill are needed especially in the initial phases of the program."

The use of assistive technologies can help to manage or improve these mobility problems for cerebral palsy patients. Assistive Technology for Limited Mobility There are numerous mobility aids, also called assistive technologies or assistive devices, to help with mobility limitations associated with cerebral palsy. Most assistive devices can be adjusted to fit a child’s height or can be specially made to fit their individual needs. Assistive devices greatly improve a child’s quality of life, as well as increase their independence. Orthotic Devices Orthotic devices are braces worn externally that improve and strengthen mobility. There are two types of orthotic devices: accommodative orthotics and functional orthotics. Accommodative orthotics are “over the counter” devices, which means they do not require a prescription or the approval of a doctor to be purchased. They are made in various sizes to fit anyone and can be bought in most pharmacies or sporting goods stores. Functional orthotics are specifically made for the individual."

T., Sun Dance Rehabilitation Corporation, Tucson, Arizona BARRY D. WEISS, M. D., University of Arizona College of Medicine, Tucson, Arizona Am Fam Physician. 2003 Apr 15;67 (8):1717-1724. Gait disorders in the elderly are common and in most cases cannot be treated medically or surgically. Therefore, treatment often relies on ambulatory devices such as canes, crutches, and walkers. Before selecting a device, the patient should be evaluated to define whether one or both upper extremities are required to achieve balance or bear weight. Patients requiring only one upper extremity can use a cane, while patients requiring both upper extremities are best served by forearm crutches or walkers. The patient's need to bear weight through the device will help the physician choose a specific device. When measuring the device, anatomic landmarks and the angle of the elbow must be taken into consideration. Because time often is limited during a routine office visit, a physical therapist often can provide further training for patients learning to use such a device. Gait disorders affect 8 to 19 percent of non-institutionalized older adults in the United States, requiring these persons to obtain the assistance of another person or to use special ambulatory devices to walk."

"text": "Image Gallery Learn how the sugar we produce comes from two diverse sources: sugarcane and sugar beets - about 50% of U. S. consumption is derived from each source. Let’s start our discussion with sugarcane - which was the original source of sugar for our ancestors thousands of years ago. Latin Name: Saccharun offucinarum Growth: How does sugar cane grow? Sugarcane is any one of several species of true tall perennial seed grasses native to tropical and subtropical regions of South Asia. The stalks are jointed and measure 6 to 19 feet tall. Sugarcane species have been interbred, so the major commercial cultivars are complex hybrids. The main product of sugarcane is sucrose which is extracted and processed as raw material in human food or is fermented to produce ethanol. Propagation: How is sugar propagated? Sugarcane produces seeds, but stem cutting is the most common and efficient propagation method. There are small buds that sprout along the length of the stalk."

Australia's relative isolation prior to European colonisation and the industrial revolution —both of which dramatically increased traffic and importation of novel species—allowed development of a complex, interdepending system of ecology, but one which provided no natural predators for many of the species subsequently introduced. The recent, sudden inundation of foreign species has led to severe breakdowns in Australian ecology, after overwhelming proliferation of a number of introduced species for which the continent has no efficient natural predator or parasite, and which displace native species—in some cases these species are physically destructive to habitat as well. Cane toads have been very successful as an invasive species, having become established in more than 15 countries within the past 150 years. [ 1] In the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, the Australian Government listed the impacts of the cane toad as a \"\"key threatening process\"\".

Native to South and mainland Middle America, cane toads were introduced to Australia from Hawaii in June 1935 by the Bureau of Sugar Experiment Stations, now the Sugar Research Australia, in an attempt to control the native grey-backed cane beetle ( Dermolepida albohirtum) and Frenchi beetle ( Lepidiota frenchi ). [ 3] These beetles are native to Australia and they are detrimental to sugar cane crops, which are a major source of income for Australia. Adult cane beetles eat the crop's leaves, but the main problem is the larvae, who feed on the roots. Adult cane beetles have a heavy exoskeleton and their eggs and larva are often buried underground, making them difficult to exterminate."

Movement is a building block for learning. As a child explores his world and has physical contact with it, learning takes place. Children with visual impairments typically need encouragement to explore their surroundings. To them the world may be a startling and unpredictable place, or it may not be very motivating. Orientation and mobility training (O & M) helps a blind or visually impaired child know where he is in space and where he wants to go (orientation). It also helps him be able to carry out a plan to get there (mobility). Orientation and mobility skills should begin to be developed in infancy starting with basic body awareness and movement, and continuing on into adulthood as the individual learns skills that allow him to navigate his world efficiently, effectively, and safely. Orientation and mobility training actually began after World War II when techniques were developed to help veterans who had been blinded."

Seriously, recent Pew Research Center data showed that 50 million Americans are served fast food every day. And since we spend a damn good chunk of our time here at Thrillist writing about and tasting fast food, we began to wonder which states do it best, and which leave much to be desired when looking for quick eats. To find out, we ranked every state by the fast-food options available there, concentrating on a variety of factors, including: 1) The big chains (Burger King, KFC, etc.) that began there 2) The regional ones (Whataburger, Culver’s) that also originated there 3) The cool, little chains just in that state 4) The variety of choices and presence of enviable franchises 5) The deliciousness and uniqueness of their options in general Recommended Video Guides The Most Overlooked Mediterranean Paradise in Europe Watch More We also created a set of criteria to determine which places were fair game: there had to be counter service, food had to generally take between 1-8 minutes to prepare, and there had to be at least three locations for a place to be considered a chain. Also, no pizza. Stop calling pizza fast food, even if it's hot and/or ready. Clearly this ranking is based on science, math, technology, and hard facts (and maybe our extremely correct opinions), but hey, if you disagree or think we missed something, throw down in the comments.

"text": "Previous Next Using Massage Therapy to Ease Discomfort Caused by Cane Usage Linda Fehrs LMTFebruary 14th, 2012As the overall average age of human population increases and the baby boomers (those born between 1946-1964) reach their 60s, so too do the injuries and disabilities increase, necessitating the use of crutches, canes and walkers. Learning how to use them properly can help go a long way in reducing the associated muscle aches and pains. While those approaching retirement years are, in general, healthier than some of the generations before them, there are those who eventually may have to use some kind of assisted walking device to get around. It may be just temporary because of an injury or it might be long-term due to an ongoing deterioration, such as arthritis, or a chronic disorder such as multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease) or Parkinson’s disease. Proper Use of Canes, Crutches and Walkers Canes and other assisted walking devices, such as crutches and walkers, are used for various disorders – not just leg or hip injuries. They are also used in helping individuals with balance problems caused by stroke, inner ear disorders, medication side effects and more. These devices can be purchased without a prescription, and therefore used without an initial consultation or instruction on usage. There are some Size matters!Crutches: The top of the crutch should reach between 1 and 1.5 inches below your armpits when you are standing up straight. Canes: The top of the handle of the cane should be at the same height as the bone on the outside of the wrist (somewhere between the pisiform bone and the styloid process or head of the ulna). The cane should be comfortably held with the elbow bent at a 30 degree angle."

The important question is not Should I build a Cane Corso Fence? The Question is “What Type Of A Cane Corso Fence?”The Cane Corso is a breed that is very strong, they range from 95lb-135lb on average. A breed standard Cane Corso will stand at least 24.5 inches at the shoulder. This is not a breed that you will be putting booties on and take it to Lowes in your cart. This is a Dog that is ready and willing to over power a human, if that human threatens the owners of the Cane Corso. In my years of training and owning Cane Corso’s, I have noticed one very amazing trait of these dogs….they are very smart and easily trained. With this in mind, the Cane Corso can be boundary trained on your property in a day or two. I was amazed to see that two of my Cane Corso Puppies learned the boundaries in a few hours and do not go beyond the property point ever.

If assistance is needed, find out the person's strengths and weaknesses. Often one side of the body is stronger. The stronger side should be transferred first. When lifting, transferring, or carrying a physically restricted person, observe the following principles of body mechanics. Practicing them will help prevent possible strain or injury to your lower back, and will insure a safe lift for the person you are lifting. I. LIFTING: A. First, plan the job. B.

After ten yearsâ successful growth with Sun Microsystems as founding and principle sponsor, the project launches an independent foundation called “The Document Foundation”, to fulfil the promise of independence written in the original charter. The Foundation will be the cornerstone of a new ecosystem where individuals and organisations can contribute to and benefit from the availability of a truly free office suite. It will generate increased competition and choice for the benefit of customers and drive innovation in the office suite market. From now on, the Open Office.org community will be known as “The Document Foundation”. Oracle, who acquired Open Office.org assets as a result of its acquisition of Sun Microsystems, has been invited to become a member of the new Foundation, and donate the brand the community has grown during the past ten years. Pending this decision, the brand “Libre Office” has been chosen for the software going forward. The Document Foundation is the result of a collective effort by leading independent members of the Open Office.org community, including several project leads and key members of the Community Council. It will be led initially by a Steering Committee of developers and national language projects managers. The Foundation aims to lower the barrier of adoption for both users and developers, to make Libre Office the most accessible office suite ever."

On the other hand, if it's free and it's just what you're looking for, it's like finding money in the street. If you're looking for basic CAD software packages and do not need highly technical functionality, you likely will find all you need, and maybe more, in one of these five quality packages that you can download for free.01of 05Auto CAD Student Version Carlo Amoruso/Getty Images Auto CAD, the heavy hitter of the CAD industry, offers a free, fully functional version for download to students and faculty. The only limitation on the software is a watermark on any plots you generate, designating that the file was created with a non-professional version. Not only does Autodesk offer its base Auto CAD package free, it also offers free licenses for almost its entire suite of AEC vertical packages, such as Civil 3D, Auto CAD Architecture and Auto Cad Electrical. If you're looking to learn CAD or just do some personal design work, this is absolutely the way to go.02of 05Trimble Sketch Up Courtesy of Trimble Sketch Up was originally developed by Google and was one of the greatest free CAD packages ever put on the market. In 2012, Google sold the product to Trimble. Trimble has enhanced it and developed it further and now offers a slew of related products. Its free version Sketch Up Make has plenty of power, but if you need additional functionality, you can buy Sketch Up Pro — and pay a hefty price tag. The interface makes it easy to master the basics."

The chorus is based on a chant from Cameroon called “Zangalewa” that, in the past, was sung by soldiers, though it was also used by various youth groups all around Africa, such as the scouts. In fact, because it is so popular, the song is often sung without knowing its meaning. However, here is what the lyrics of the chorus mean in English:.

"text": "Ross Mc Call, a television comedy writer in L. A., recently spent his honeymoon in Zihuatanejo, Mexico, where he and his wife, Susan, had rented a nice condo near the beach. A few times during the week, the newlyweds dropped in for lunch at the nearby La Casa Que Canta and dined alongside the hotel’s “infinity pool,” with its stunning view of Zihuatanejo Bay. “ We were really enjoying our condo across the street,” Mc Call said, “But when we were having lunch at La Casa Que Canta, all we could think about was how much we wanted to be spending the whole day in their swimming pool. ”Pool envy can affect not just travelers, but also the hotels themselves, many of which seem to be engaged in a sort of aquatic arms race, outdoing each other with square-acreage, sandy beaches, underwater sound systems or cliff-edge vistas. From Le Meridien’s 69,000-square-foot expanse in Makadi Bay, Egypt, to the Hyatt Regency Maui’s tide-pool simulators, hotels aim to impress and attract visitors with their swimming holes’ scale and novelty features (or a combination of both). The measure of a hotel swimming pool’s quality is, of course, a largely subjective matter. Some prefer sheer size; others look for beach simulacra, like sand shores and wave machines). A spectacular view (often, ironically, a view of water) tops the list for certain travelers, and specialty features like swim-up bars, luxury cabanas or underwater sound systems matter most for other adventure-seekers. And some vacationers just want a good old-fashioned pool party. At Las Vegas’s Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, they can find just that."

A case study in the Library and Information Science field Borja González-Albo María Bordons Show morehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.joi.2011.01.011 Get rights and content Abstract In 2008, the type of document “proceedings paper” (PP) was assigned in the Wo S database to journal articles which were initially presented at a conference and later adapted for publication in a journal. Since the use of two different labels (“article” and “proceedings paper”) might lead to infer differences in their relevance and/or quality, this paper presents a comparative study of standard journal articles and PP in journals to explore potential differences between them. The study focuses on the Library and Information Science field in the Web of Science database and covers the 1990–2008 period. PP approximately account for 9% of the total number of articles in this field, two-thirds of which are published in monographic issues devoted to conferences, which tend to be concentrated in specific journals. Proceedings papers emerge as an heterogeneous set comprising PP in ordinary issues, similar to standard articles in structure and impact of research; and PP in monographic issues, which seem to be less comprehensive and tend to receive less citations. Faster publication of PP in monographic than in ordinary issues may conceal differences in the review process undergone by either type of paper. The main implications of these results for authors, bibliometricians, journal editors and research evaluators are pointed out. Research highlights► Comparative study between “Proceedings paper” – journal articles previously presented at a conference – and standard articles is presented. ► Proceedings papers in ordinary journal issues are similar to standard articles."

So why does Spanish use the word 'estar' instead of 'ser' to indicate that condition? Is there some background to this in terms of religion or politeness? If I say 'Mi padre es muerto', would that have a drastically different meaning than if I had used estar, or is the first one just plain incorrect and should never be used at all?selección-de-palabras cópulasshare improve this questionedited Dec 6 '11 at 23:53asked Dec 6 '11 at 22:20Gordon Gustafson1,211 4 20 273It's a nice question, indeed! – Gonzalo Medina Dec 6 '11 at 22:295One way of thinking about it is to see estar as not necessarily dealing with permanence, but condition ( estado) as opposed to being ( ser ).

"text": "\"Pisco is a hard alcohol, or liquor, made from distilled grapes. These kinds of liquors are often called brandies. The word ‘pisco’ is said to be derived from the word pisqu, meaning “little bird” in Quecha, the language of the ancient Inca. Most pisco is produced in Chile and Peru, and is a very popular drink in these countries. It is also popular in Bolivia. Pisco was first produced strictly from the Quebranta grape, which means “broken” in Spanish. Since the early production days, other grape varietals have been used as well. In particular, Muscat grapes have become particularly common. The grape used varies depending on the region, and many producers use more than one grape when making a batch. According to some records, pisco was made as early as the 1500s."

"text": "\"San Agustín de Laredo, a colonial city of New Spain founded in 1755, was named for a town in Santander, located on the north coast of Spain. Nuevo Santander, one of the last northern provinces of New Spain, was established by the Spaniard José de Escandón as part of a program to colonize northern Mexico. Appointed governor, Escandón was responsible for the colonization along the Río Grande, and a chain of six settlements were established, with Camargo being the earliest in 1749. The other outposts included Reynosa (1749), Dolores (1750), Revilla (1750), and Mier (1752). Since no missions or presidios were associated with its founding, Laredo is considered the oldest independent settlement in Texas and is the only remaining Spanish colonial settlement on the north bank of the lower Río Grande. Laredo was founded on the north bank of the Río Grande on May 15, 1755, when Captain Tomás Sánchez, with three families, was granted permission to settle 15 leagues of land near an Indian ford on the Río Grande. Operated as a family rancho, the Sánchez estate ran cattle, sheep, goats, horses, mules and oxen. In 1767, the city was laid out, and in the years to follow, ranching became the sustenance of the colony. The 1757 inspection reported eleven families owning 100 cattle, 125 mules, 712 horses, and 9,089 sheep and goats. The first Texas cattle drives took place along the San Antonio-Laredo road to Saltillo in the 18th century, and Laredo became an important frontier outpost on the lower Camino Real, or King's Road, which stretched from Saltillo through San Antonio to Los Adaes."

Here in the United States, we often witness much of the Mexican culture, particularly in the south. Along our borders, the two cultures blend, which can result in a misunderstanding of Mexican culture on behalf of Americans. You may think you know the real Mexico, but do you really? Read on to learn more about the differences between Mexican and American culture. Language United States: In the United States, there is no federally recognized language, but over half of the 50 states have recognized American English as their official language. While English is the most widely spoken language in the nation, there are believed to be nearly 150 living languages spoken around the United States today. Mexico: Like the United States, Mexico does not have a defined language. However, Mexico is the most populated Spanish-speaking country in the world, as there are most Spanish speakers in Mexico than there are in Spain! The Mexican government also recognizes 62 indigenous languages that are spoken within the country’s borders, called Amerindian languages."

Cozumel is located in the Mexican State of Quintana Roo, which also encompasses much of the Yucatan peninsula. Cozumel's economy is completely dependent on tourism. It was hit hard by Hurricane Wilma in November 2005, completely knocking out the three cruise terminals and other infrastructure. But the island has come back stronger than ever, with the port authority taking the opportunity to double the cruise ship berthing capacity.

"text": "\"Marty Robbins and the El Paso Saga“Here’s a piece of trivia for you,” said Lee Hazlewood challenging his interviewer, Richard Hawley, “Who covered Elvis Presley and beat him?” Hawley didn’t know. Hazlewood, who had been a DJ in Phoenix at the time, may have felt some sort of local pride as he told him “Marty Robbins! Elvis had That’s All Right on Sun Records and Marty Robbins, he’s from Phoenix, and he came right along and covered it and knocked the hell out of it.” By December 7th 1954, when Robbins recorded That’s All Right, Presley’s version had sold somewhere in the region of 25,000 copies and Presley’s second Sun single Good Rockin’ Tonight had already been issued. Still the fact remains it was Robbins, not Presley, who steered the song to the charts. Robbins’ version got to number 7 on the Disk Jockey chart and number 9 on the Best Selling chart in 1955. Robbins had been signed to Columbia Records by Art Satherley, in 1951 on Little Jimmy Dickens recommendation. Dickens had been impressed by Robbins talent after appearing as a guest on a local Phoenix TV show that Robbins hosted. English man Satherley is widely recognised as one of the architects of country music having brought, in addition to Robbins, Bob Wills, Roy Acuff, Bill Monroe and, Robbins’ boyhood idol, Gene Autry to the Columbia label."

"text": "Definition of Mamacita October 11th, 2005Ever since I posted an inquiry looking for a song called Mamasita or Mamacita, I’ve noticed that many people are curious about the definition of the Spanish word “mamacita”. “Mamacita” literally means “little mama”. It can be used as a term of affection. Sometimes it’s used when someone watches children other than their own – those children can call the caregiver “mamacita”. It also means “hot mama”, referring to an attractive young woman. Be careful though, it looks like it can have off-color meanings if used the wrong way!Here’s a link to a further discussion of the definition of mamacita.

"text": "\"George Lucas was so sure the film would flop that instead of attending the premiere, he went on vacation to Hawaii with his good friend Steven Spielberg, where they came up with the idea for Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981). In early drafts of the script, R2-D2 could speak standard English, and he had a rather foul vocabulary. Although all of R2's English speech was removed, many of C-3PO's reactions to it were left in. The first film to make over $300,000,000. According to Harrison Ford, during the making of the film, he and Mark Hamill would usually fool around and not commit to their work whenever Alec Guinness was not on set. When Guinness was on set, they behaved much more professionally. George Lucas' decision to accept a lower salary on the film in exchange for full merchandising rights was considered a fool's gamble on his part. Toys based on movies had never been major money-earners (though some movie-toy combinations had done moderate retail returns) because of the long gap between when a movie would go through its theatrical run and when any products based on it would be available. Star Wars, however, was such a phenomenon that it reached the holiday 1977 sales period in full swing, and changed the way movies were merchandised forever. Harrison Ford didn't learn his lines for the intercom conversation in the cell block so that it would sound spontaneous."

"text": "\"How to Make Homemade Italian Sausage and Soppressata2013/06/04 - Written by Francesco & Carolina Caruso Homemade Sausage and Soppressata (Photography Michel Ostaszewski)SHARE THIS ARTICLE Tweet No cantina is complete without a beautiful necklace of Italian sausage and soppressata dangling from the ceiling. While you may need a more experienced pair of hands to stuff the casings correctly, making these Italian staples is a rather straightforward process. View video of entire process here. The size of the casing will determine whether you are making soppressata (3 ½ inch) or sausage (1 ½ inch). While the meat is exactly the same, the difference in thickness between the two will ensure a difference in taste at the end of the aging process. Ingredien ts• 1 whole freshly butchered pork shoulder or thigh (11 kg)• 50 g black ground pepper• 50 g ground fennel seeds (can be ground with a coffee grinder)• Fine salt (10 g/pound (450 g) of meat)• Half a jar of salsa di peperone. You may substitute with paprika or hot flakes (to taste).• 1 or 2 packs of sausage casings (lamb casings)• 1 orange, cut in half (to help flavour & disinfect casings)Tools• Butcher twine for tightening the ends• Meat grinder (preferably electric) with sausage stuffer attachments if possible• Sausage stuffer (preferably electric)• “S” hook• Small bowl (for collecting the meat)• Large bowl (for mixing the meat)• Large wooden spoon• Good scale (to weigh the meat)• Wooden rack (to hang sausages)Cutting the meat Start by carefully removing the skin of the pork shoulder and all the unwanted hard lard, ligaments and nerves from the meat. Divide the lean meat and the fat into two different containers. Both sausages and soppressata should have a ratio of 10 to 25 percent fat for 75 to 90 percent lean meat. Keep all the white hard fat and discard all the fat that is too soggy."

Sign me up When you think about jobs you could have at Taco Bell, an architect might not be your first thought. But those beautiful restaurants you see from the drive-thru don’t just design themselves, a team of people are constantly imagining how to make Taco Bell's restaurants better for our customers and team members. Meet Christina Hernandez, one of Taco Bell’s in-house brand architects and designers. Christina is one of the architects behind Taco Bell’s recently opened flagship restaurant in Las Vegas and our new Urban Inline and Cantina restaurants. We sat down with Christina to learn more about her and how she landed one of the Best Jobs Ever at Taco Bell Corporate. Question: So, for those who don’t know, what is architecture and what does it mean to be an architect at Taco Bell? Christina Hernandez: Architecture is the study of building design, as well as the practice of designing and constructing buildings. Being an architect at Taco Bell means thinking outside the box, being innovative and being unique when it comes to designing the interior and exterior of Taco Bell’s restaurants.

"text": "Mexican Eating Habits you Didn’t Know About December 4, 2012 by Ixtapa Mexican Restaurant & Cantina In the United States, most of us are accustomed to a timely schedule of breakfast, then lunch, followed by dinner. However, in the Mexican culture, eating habits are quite different. In the US we eat around our work schedule, while Mexicans work around their eating schedule. This traditional Mexican style of eating roots back to Spain. Portion sizes and meal times in Mexican culture are different than our usual breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Some may consider Mexican eating habits on a “delayed” schedule. Not only are their eating patterns different, but their diet as well is also unique. Mexicans generally eat a traditional diet consisting of healthy foods, rich in taste. The article below from What Guanajuato.com goes into detail about the eating habits of the Mexican culture. Eating Customs in Mexico Like in Spain, you can expect to eat your meals in Mexico on what seems like a delayed schedule- possibly due to centuries of Spanish influence."

"text": "\"The Adventures of House Hunting in Guardia San Framondi, Italy Buying A Little Slice of Heaven in Guardia Italy... View from the Terrazo of my new home I believe that there are a few moments in everyone’s life that defy all odds, and appear to be almost a magical series of events, and when you look back at those moments, it all seems a bit surreal. Here is my story, and all true. It all started in August of 2012, I had started a new job, attempting to revive my career after raising two children and working way too many hours and commuting a long distance to work. While I was very busy with work and loving what I was doing, a part of me was feeling that the best part of my life was over, and that the rest of my life would just become very routine, and missing the passion for life that I was used to feeling. I was settled in for the night after a long day of work and came across an episode of House Hunters International. This particular episode showcased Clare Galloway, a Scottish artist who moved to Italy with big dreams and a small budget. I was intrigued that she had found a house for under $20,000 and had relocated to a beautiful town called Guardia Sanframondi, Italy. At first, I tried to google any information on any properties for sale in the town, general information on the town, or the realtor with no success. A voice in the back of my head said “keep trying” After a few days of trying a couple of different searches, I came across a website for Clare Galloway,http://www.facebook.com/clare.galloway.7?ref=ts&fref=ts artist of Guardia Sanframondi, and contacted her via email asking her if she still was in Guardia and if there were other houses for sale. I really never thought she would answer back."

While that may be just a little difficult, there are still the real-world locations that served as various worlds during filming, and they can be visited. In Galactic Backpacking, we explore these locations by country, looking at their histories and current attractions. The planet of Tatooine may very well be the most important planet in the saga. It was here that Luke watched the twin suns set in the sky, where Qui-Gon battled against a Sith Lord, marking their return to the galaxy, and where Anakin Skywalker and his son Luke grew up. It is also the only planet that appeared in five of the six movies, receiving a mention in the one movie it was not seen, The Empire Strikes Back. We start to explore this planet by going to the country where most, but not all, of the exteriors shots were filmed: Tunisia, maybe the most famous of Star Wars locations. General information Tunisia (officially the Tunisian Republic) is a country in the northern part of Africa that shares its borders with Libya to the southeast, Algeria to the west, and the Mediterranean Sea at the north. With its close proximity to Italy Tunisia has the second and third largest nearest points of the African continent after Gibraltar.

Exercise Rim of the Pacific offers an excellent opportunity to practice joint C2 in key leadership positions. In this latest in a series of RCAF articles on C2, Colonel David Lowthian offers insights into his experience during Exercise Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) 2014 as the Deputy Combined Forces Air Component Commander. Exercise Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) continues to be the premier multinational training exercise. It provides an exceptional training and learning environment through serialized and free-play events that increase in tempo and magnitude as the exercise progresses. Although it is maritime-centric, it offers tremendous benefit to RCAF personnel, greatly enhancing their understanding of tactical capabilities. RIMPAC 2014 included approximately 340 RCAF men and women operating in air-component roles. These roles included four tactical detachments (CP140, CC130T, CC150T and CF188), the air task force (ATF) / air expeditionary wing (AEW), key positions within the combined air operations centre (CAOC), fighter controllers located at the Hawaiian Radar Operations Centre as well as two key leadership positions (the Deputy Combined Forces Air Component Commander [CFACC] and the Deputy Commander Combined Task Force 172 [Maritime Patrol]). Each of the air-component entities provided lessons learned through their respective chains of command. This article reflects on the functions and responsibilities of the CFACC and CAOC and identifies areas where RCAF contributions to future coalition operations and exercises can be improved."

United States Central Command 's Joint Task Force Southwest Asia (JTF-SWA) had the mission of monitoring and controlling the airspace south of the 32nd Parallel (extended to the 33rd Parallel in 1996) in southern and south-central Iraq during the period following the end of the 1991 Gulf War until the 2003 invasion of Iraq.

[ 5]Following the end of Operation Desert Storm, Iraqi bombing and strafing attacks against the Shi’ite Muslims in Southern Iraq during the remainder of 1991 and into 1992 indicated that Saddam Hussein chose not to comply with the resolution. Military forces from Saudi Arabia, the United States, the United Kingdom, and France participated in Operation Southern Watch. The commander of JTF-SWA, an aeronautically rated United States Air Force (USAF) Major General, assisted by an aeronautically designated United States Navy (USN) Rear Admiral, reported directly to the Commander, United States Central Command (USCENTCOM). [ 5]Military engagements in Southern Watch occurred with regularity, with Coalition aircraft routinely being shot at by Iraqi air defense forces utilizing surface-to-air missiles (SAMs) and anti-aircraft artillery (AAA), although such incidents were usually only reported in the Western press occasionally."

"text": "Title: Radio interface layer in a cell phone with a set of APIs having a hardware-independent proxy layer and a hardware-specific driver layer United States Patent 6826762Abstract: A Radio Interface Layer (RIL) is disclosed. The RIL comprises an API set which provides a level of abstraction between the radio on a cell phone and the software of the cell phone. The API set of RIL is roughly based on the GSM AT interface as defined in GSM specifications 07.05 and 07.07. The API set provides access to functionality contained within a cellular telephone, such as a GSM or CDMA compatible telephone. These APIs allow applications running on an operating system in the cellular telephone to issue commands without knowledge of the underlying radio structure of the cellular telephone and specific knowledge of the GSM-type commands. For example, these APIs allow the applications to access to phonebook entries, restrict access to data and functionality using passwords, access file and message storage, and perform many other functions. The RIL is divided into a hardware-independent proxy layer, called by various software components, and a driver layer that is hardware-specific. Inventors: Shell, Scott R.

The NATO Communications and Information (NCI) Agency has supported CAOC TJ during its implementation and validation process, and continues to provide close support to the CAOC through its CIS Support Unit in Torrejon. At the ceremony the NCI Agency's General Manager was represented by Mr Enzo Montalti, the NCI Agency Programme Director for Air Command & Control.

"text": "Air, Intel & Cyber, Land, Strategy & Policy From Concept To Combat: Making Multi-Domain Battle Real By Sydney J. Freedberg Jr.on July 26, 2017 at 8:00 AM9 Comments510Shares Gen. David Perkins WASHINGTON: The concept called Multi-Domain Battle – a single seamless offensive across land, sea, air, space, and cyberspace – may seem futuristic, but the Army wants to start implementing at least parts of it right now. In wargames, doctrine, and interservice dialogue, “it’s actually becoming reality,” said Gen. David Perkins. As one of the fathers of Multi-Domain Battle and head of the Army’s powerful Training and Doctrine Command, Perkins laid out three main efforts in a roundtable with reporters yesterday: Wargames: The Army and Marines are jointly creating an experimental unit, the Multi-Domain Task Force. The roughly 1,500-strong formation will join in ongoing multi-domain exercises sponsored by Adm. Harry Harris, head of Pacific Command and the Navy’s most vocal advocate of the Army’s Multi-Domain Battle concept. Collaboration: Army leaders are consulting with the other services and foreign militaries. One prominent example is a February conference among leaders of the Army’s Training & Doctrine Command, the Air Force’s Air Combat Command (ACC), Navy Fleet Forces Command, and NATO’s Allied Command Transformation, all conveniently close together in coastal Virginia. Perkins and ACC commander Gen. James Holmes are co-writing a paper on the concept. Doctrine: This fall, TRADOC will issue a new edition of its pivotal Field Manual 3-0, Operations, that will incorporate Multi-Domain Battle. The Air Force, Navy, and Marines have all had input on the document, Perkins said. A new manual may seem a modest step, but for the first time, Multi-Domain Battle evolves from a broad concept about future operations into specific doctrine the Army can execute here and now."

The state and counties spent several months prior to the budget agreement negotiating changes to IHSS financing after the Director of the Department of Finance ended the Coordinated Care Initiative (CC) in January. As initially unveiled, the CCI would shift approximately $600 million in costs to counties and undo statewide collective bargaining for IHSS. SB 90 (Chapter 25, Statutes of 2017) contains the negotiated agreement between the Brown Admnistration and counties to adddress the IHSS program. The purpose of this document is to provide an initial review of the issues that may present themselves at the bargaining table over the next few months and to provide rural counties a number of tools ro assist with SB 90 implementation and local decision-making."

"text": "By John Decker Mar 8, 2006Pickup truck owners have lots of friends. My pickup is regularly borrowed to move everything from cordwood and college kids to upright pianos and snowblowers. When it was new I always rode shotgun to make sure my truck didn't get banged up, but that grew old once I realized I would always be the mover's helper. Then a friend accidentally ran the right-front corner into a low post--doing just enough damage to the fender to exceed his ability to pay for it, but not enough damage to exceed my deductible. Fortunately, only the fender was smacked, so I reasoned I could buy a new one and easily bolt it on myself. Modern basecoat/clearcoat paints make a professional refinishing job very easy with nothing more than an air compressor and spray gun, as long as you're willing to color-sand and buff out the finish once it's dry. Even paint matching--once the bane of all would-be auto painters--is simple, thanks to the modern paint-matching equipment that many well-equipped auto stores have. Basecoat/clearcoat paints are extremely forgiving to apply. To choose the proper paint color, find the paint code, which is usually located on a doorjamb or the trunklid. If you can't find the code, take a piece of the car, like the gas cap, that has the original paint to the paint store and have them match it with their machine."

I am sure I must be mistaken. A capa y espada means: to defend something tooth and nail So, for instance:she defended her point of view tooth and nail. I wonder if that sentence is correct, I am not a native speaker. In Spanish it would be : Defendió su punto de vista a capa y espada. She defended her brother fiercely. Defendió a su hermano a capa y espada.

I really don't know how this sentence means \"\" secret behevior \"\" I think this is utterly mistaken, at least in spanish.

But these institutions aren’t just adding accountants to their teams. They’re also hiring clerks and managers who can detail transactions, monitor loans, reconcile vouchers and manage the books. Some of these professionals will work strictly in accounts payable — the department that deals with money owed. Salaries vary based on title and size of the company. Salary Overview As of 2011, accounting clerks averaged an annual wage of $36,120, according to a recent report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. But high salaries can sometimes skew this figure. For this reason, median wage is often a better indicator of salaries, and half of accounting clerks earn $34,740 a year or less. Neither of these figures, however, differentiates one accounting specialty from another. Clerks working in accounts payable earn a different pay scale than those in auditing, for example."

"text": "Perianesthesia Nurse What Does a Perianesthesia Nurse Do? When people think of the team involved in surgical procedures, they often only think of the work of surgeons, operating room nurses, and anesthesiologists. Though these are undoubtedly important figures in surgery, when it comes to patient recovery immediately after surgeries, the work of perianesthesia nurses is key. These nurses work with patients who are unconscious due to the use of anesthesia and care for them until after they regain consciousness. Though most patients who have undergone surgery with anesthesia wake up calm, perianesthesia nurses must still be prepared to handle the odd cases where patients react aversely to the anesthesia. These cases can include patients regaining consciousness with emergence excitement, extreme confusion, vomiting, severe pain, or breathing problems. They also are responsible for preparing patients for surgery, where their duties are to consult with patients on the procedures they will be going through and what to expect immediately after treatment as well as during recovery. How Can I Become a Perianesthesia Nurse? Those interested in becoming a perianesthesia nurse must first earn licensure to work as a registered nurse (RN). Becoming a registered nurse can be achieved in three educational paths: with a diploma, associate degree, or bachelor's degree."

Regardless of the setting in which you practice, if you have the hours required caring for patients in Postanesthesia Phase I, the CPAN exam is most relevant to your practice. If you have the hours required caring for patients in the Preanesthesia Phase, Day of Surgery/Procedure, Postanesthesia Phase II and/or Extended Care, the CAPA exam is most relevant to your practice. Clinical Experience In the two years prior to applying for initial certification, you must have at least 1,800 hours of direct clinical experience obtained within the two years prior to applying for initial certification. Direct experience is defined as having bedside interaction with the patient and/or family in some capacity and participating actively in the individual patient experience. You do not need to be technically employed in a direct care position (staff nurse, for example). If your role (e.g., educator, manager, Clinical Nurse Specialist) involves bedside interaction with the patient and/or family in some capacity, those hours count towards meeting the experience requirement. Dual Certification To be eligible to sit for both the CPAN and CAPA exams, you must meet the licensure and direct care requirements and have:at least 1800 hours of direct clinical experience caring for patients in Postanesthesia Phase IANDat least 1800 hours of direct clinical experience caring for patients in Preanesthesia Phase, Day of Surgery/Procedure, Postanesthesia Phase II and/or Extended Care.

S., in the recent past, have been an eye-opener into the consequences of failing to adhere to FDA (The U. S. Food and Drug Administration) regulations. Civil and criminal actions taken in the recent past are warnings to the pharmaceutical and medical devices industry about the serious pitfalls of FDA violations. Meanwhile, there has been a strong demand for more regulatory power for the FDA over compounding pharmacies, following the 2012 fungal meningitis outbreak in Michigan, which was caused by contaminated steroid injections. These are all clear indicators of the FDA's increasing focus on regulatory oversight, as well as its determination to ramp up its enforcement efforts. The best way forward for the pharmaceutical and medical devices industry would be to be well prepared for FDA inspections and audits. WHO DOES THE FDA INSPECT AND HOW OFTEN? The Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act gives FDA the authority to conduct inspections at drug and medical device manufacturing facilities, among other regulated types of facilities.

If, for example someone angrlily shouts \"\"¿Qué te pasa?\"\" at you, it can be interpreted as \"\"What's wrong with you!?\"\" If a mother sees her child sad while at the table, she can calmly ask \"\"¿Qué te pasa? \"\", which can be interpreted as \"\"Why are you sad?, What happened?\"\" in this example. There are better examples I guess, but to answer clearly your question: It depends greatly on the context more than only who is saying it.2.6k Views · View Upvoters Your response is private."

A writ directing the sheriff to take the person of the defendant into custody. It is a judicial writ, and issued originally only to enforce compliance with the summons of an original writ, or with some judgment or decree of the court. It was originally issuable as a part of the original process in a suit only in case of injuries committed by force or with fraud, but was much extended by statutes. Being the first word of distinctive significance in the writ, when writs were framed in Latin, it came to denote the whole class of writs by which a defendant”s person was to be arrested. It was issuable either by the court of common pleas or king”s bench, and bore the seal of the court. What does Capias mean in American Law?

"text": "\"> Business Processes > Warrant Process Flow >Warrant Types\"\"Warrant\"\" refers to a specific type of authorization: a writ issued by a competent officer, usually a judge or magistrate, which permits an otherwise illegal act that would violate individual rights and affords the person executing the writ protection from damages if the act is performed. Warrant for Arrest – An arrest warrant is issued by a judge or magistrate and must be supported by a signed and sworn affidavit showing probable cause that a specific crime has been committed, and that the person (s) named in the warrant committed said crime. An arrest warrant is a warrant issued by a public officer which authorizes the arrest and detention of an individual. In most jurisdictions, an arrest warrant is required for misdemeanors that do not occur within view of a police officer. However, as long as police have the necessary probable cause, a warrant is usually not needed to arrest someone suspected of a felony. The material on this site primarily applies to Arrest Warrants. Other types of Warrants: Search Warrant – A search warrant is a warrant to search a specific premise for evidence of a specific crime. The warrant is issued by the judge if he or she finds probable cause to believe such evidence exists based on information presented by police to the judge in the form of a signed and sworn affidavit. Search warrants are generally not relevant to most of what technologists do in the field of criminal justice. In addition to warrants for arrest for committing some specified crime, other warrants can be issued for failure to appear in court (FTA) and failure to follow a court’s orders."

"text": "\"Context Court Cases and Trials Laws in the United States of America Attorneys Legal Issues and Law in Everyday Life Law The United States of America What does the term \"\"Prejudice\"\" means in the context of American law, or as a legal term?5 Answers Kelly Kinkade, Law student from a long time ago, not a lawyer. Answered Jan 6, 2017 · Author has 7.5k answers and 36.1m answer views There is a concept in US law that, once a matter has been decided by a court, no other court shall reconsider that decision: the first decision shall stand. This principle is called res judicata, which is Law Latin for “the matter has been decided”. Once a court has decided some matter on the merits, every other court is obliged to respect that court’s decision. This is to ensure finality of judgment; otherwise, people who lose a case might seek to relitigate it in a different court, possibly endlessly. When a court dismisses a matter “with prejudice”, that means that the court has reached the conclusion that the matter before it was so lacking in legal theory or evidentiary support that there was no way that the plaintiff could prevail on the claim made. Res judicata attaches to a dismissal with prejudice: the plaintiff cannot bring the same case again, and the defendant can go on with his or her life secure in the knowledge that he or she will not be sued again over the same matter. When a court dismisses a matter “without prejudice”, that means that the court is terminating the immediate legal proceedings in a manner that does not foreclose the plaintiff’s right to return to that court, or to another court, to seek vindication of his or her claims in relation to that matter. A dismissal without prejudice normally arises when there is a procedural defect in the lawsuit: it was brought in the wrong court, or an essential defendant was not named, or some other defect that goes not to the substance of the matter under dispute, but instead to the method by which the court was asked to settle it, that prevents the court from deciding the case. This same language is used in other contexts."

We spend a great deal of time explaining to our clients what the difference is between capias and alias warrants. This is why we have drafted this article so that you can understand the difference between the two and what an attorney can and cannot do for you depending on the classification of your warrants. Garland Warrants Lifted Capias Warrants Defined and Explained Capias warrant as used to describe warrants for traffic tickets is a warrant that has been issued after entering into an agreement with Garland Municipal Court and then defaulting on that agreement. For example, if you received a traffic ticket in Garland and worked out a payment plan with the court but then missed a payment the court could put your case into capias warrant status. This means that you cannot hire a lawyer to come in and lift the warrant because an agreement has already been reached. There is no real reason to lift the warrant at that point. You had your day in court and failed to adhere to the terms. DO NOT HIRE ATTORNEYS FOR CAPIAS WARRANTS. Many attorneys will take your money only to turn around and tell you that your warrants cannot be lifted and the fee you paid was non-refundable."

"text": "Government & Politics Law Q: What Is a Pending Warrant? A: Quick Answer A pending warrant is an impending document issued by a magistrate authorizing police officers to make an arrest, conduct a search or seize property. Felony warrants are executed anywhere and at any time of the day or the night. Time restrictions are placed on when misdemeanor warrants can be executed.

"text": "Science & Mathematics Biology Which products of digestion are absorbed by the blood capillary and which are absorbed by the lacteal? Also, could you explain to me what the lacteal is. ( Let's just say my biology revision is not so successful. ) Follow 3 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Alright. : D I'll tell you all i know about the lacteal. Within each villus in the small intestine is a lacteal/lymphatic capillary, that is entwined in blood capillaries. Glucose and amino acids are absorbed by diffusion into the blood capillaries. They are also absorbed by active transport when there is a lower concentration of digested food substances in the lumen of the small intestines than in the blood capillaries. That's why you see mitochondria in the microvilli, which are epithelial cells of the villi. Glucose and amino acids are brought the the liver."

"text": "Answered by The Wiki Answers ®Community Answers.com ® is making the world better one answer at a time. The structure of the human alimentary canal The alimentary canal is a long hollow tube which runs from the mouth to the anus . Together with several other organs, including the liver and the pancreas, it makes up the digestive system. The total length of the human alimentary canal is between 5 and 6 m, from anus to mouth. To fit this considerable length into body, parts of the canal are folded and coiled inside the abdomen . The mucus is a substance secreted along the tube by cells lining its walls . Mucus helps food to slide through the canal without doing too much damage to the lining. It also forms a protective covering which keeps the digestive juices, which are inside the lumen of the canal, from coming into contact with the living cells of the walls. Along the whole length of the alimentary canal there are muscles in the walls. These produce waves, of Contraction and relaxation called peristaltic waves, which move food along the alimentary canal and help to mix the contents."

Answer: They sense the presence of food, complete the digestion process and absorb the digested food. They contract to push the undigested food to the large intestine. Explanation: Rawda Eada · 1 · 3 comments · Nov 24 2015What is the purpose of the villi found in the small intestine? Answer: To absorb nutrients and the complete breakdown of food. Explanation: Villi in the small intestine absorbs nutrients and completes the breakdown of food. Factors of its structure that help it function include Large surface area (provides more surface area for exchange to take place)Thin wall (reduces the distance that materials need to move)Moist (assists the transport of materials across the exchange surface)The process that the nutrients move into the villi is diffusion. Source, Tommy IX, 2013The picture above is a diagram of what is inside the villus. It explains what kind of nutrients is absorbed by the blood capillary which is glucose, amino acids (and can also be nucleotides) and by the lacteal which is fatty acids and glycerol."

"text": "Capillaries are the smallest and most fragile of the body's blood vessels. They are responsible for what is known as microcirculation, meaning that they create a circulatory network within the organs of the body. There are three different types found in the human body: continuous, fenestrated, and sinusoidal. The differences in the various types is due to their location in the body as well as their particular function. The role of the capillary is to connect the arterioles and the venules. Arterioles are small blood vessels that branch out from arteries, while the venules branch out from veins. Arteries are the vessels that carry clean, nutrient- and oxygen -rich blood from the heart to the remainder of the body. Veins carry the blood back to the heart once the nutrients have been absorbed by the various cells and tissues of the body. Each individual capillary does not work alone, as these vessels form a network in order to carry out their role in the circulatory system. Continuous capillaries get their name from the fact that the cells forming them provide a continuous lining with no interruptions."

Certainly the heart, the brain, and the immune system get more play in the popular imagination than the liver, but that's only because the liver is so misunderstood. Next to the skin, the liver is the largest organ in the body. In many ways, it is the most important organ, and the last to be considered when it comes to health. In addition to being large, the liver is also a complicated organ involved in at least 200 separate functions. Generally speaking, the liver performs a vital role in regulating, synthesizing, storing, secreting, transforming, and breaking down many different substances in the body. In this issue, we explore the anatomy and physiology of the liver in detail from a natural health perspective, and conclude with a discussion of how the body regulates cholesterol and why statin drugs may not be all that doctors promote.

Whether they’re in cut arrangements or growing in the garden, all flowers need water to stay fresh and crisp. Flowers, like most plants, absorb water mainly through a combination of osmosis, capillary action and transpiration. Factors such as soil texture and precipitation control the amount of water available to plants. Although water requirements vary by species, the amount of water a flower absorbs is greatly dependent on several environmental factors. Osmosis and Capillary Action Plants absorb water through tiny hairs that cover the surface of the roots. Water is absorbed by osmosis — the movement of water molecules through a semipermeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. The plant’s water-conducting tissue or xylem provides a pathway of tubes that draw water upward to the leaves through capillary action."

The production of goods and services is based on supply and demand in the general market ( market economy ), rather than through central planning ( planned economy or command economy ). The purest form of capitalism is free market or laissez-faire capitalism, in which private individuals are completely unrestrained in determining where to invest, what to produce or sell, and at which prices to exchange goods and services, operating without check or controls. Most modern countries practice a mixed capitalist system of some sort that includes government regulation of business and industry. Next Up Free Market Centrally Planned Economy Marxism Vulture Capitalist BREAKING DOWN 'Capitalism'Functionally speaking, capitalism is simply one process by which the problems of economic production and resource distribution might be resolved. Instead of planning economic decisions through centralized political methods, as with socialism or feudalism, economic planning under capitalism occurs via decentralized and voluntary decisions. Capitalism and Private Property Private property rights are very important in capitalism. Most modern concepts of private property stem from John Locke's theory of homesteading, in which human beings claim ownership through mixing their labor with unclaimed resources. Once owned, the only legitimate means of transferring property are through trade, gifts, inheritance or wagers. Private property promotes efficiency by giving the owner of resources an incentive to maximize its value."

"text": "The Thin Red Line: Non-Market Socialism in the Twentieth Century - John Crump (1987)Non-Market Socialism in the Twentieth Century From a socialist standpoint, what is the most crucial difference between the nineteenth century and the twentieth century? Although one could point to numerous differences which are significant for socialists, surely the most crucial difference of all is that in the nineteenth century there were no states which claimed to be socialist. Despite the well-known distinction which Marx, Engels and others made between 'scientific socialism' and 'utopian socialism', even nineteenth-century 'scientific socialism' was utopian in the etymological sense of referring to nowhere - to no existing state. By way of contrast, for most of the twentieth century, states have existed which have been popularly regarded as 'socialist' or 'communist'. The effect of this popular identification of 'socialism' with certain states has been disastrous. Millions of wage-earners have drawn the conclusion that socialism has been tried in the twentieth century and found to fail. Even many stern critics of the 'socialist states' have been reduced to describing such countries as examples of 'actually existing socialism'1. Capitalism has been given a new lease of life because, compared with the brutality of state capitalist regimes or the cynicism of Social Democratic administrations, government by even avowedly capitalist parties has seemed preferable to many. SOCIAL DEMOCRACY AND LENINISMDuring the twentieth century, 'socialism' has come to mean for most people either Social Democracy or Leninism. Social Democracy has been strongest in the countries of Western and Northern Europe, where Social Democratic Parties have held power for varying lengths of time."

In Capital, he says that in developed capitalist society there is only a capitalist and a proletarian class. 1 The former, who are also called the bourgeoisie, are described in the Communist Manifesto as \"\"owners of the means of social production and employers of wage labor.\"\" In the same place, the proletariat are said to be \"\"the class of modern wage-laborers who, having no means of production of their own, are reduced to selling their labor-power in order to live.\"\" 2 But, though Marx believed European capitalism was sufficiently advanced for a Communist revolution to occur, he asserts elsewhere in Capital that three classes—capitalists, proletarians, and landowners—\"\"constitute in their mutual opposition the framework of modern society.\"\" 3 For Marx, the landowner class is composed of owners of large tracts of land and is almost always feudal in origin. Has the standard by which Marx assesses class membership altered? 4Even where the basis for distinguishing classes appears to be a group's relations to the prevailing mode of production the question is not the simple one of whether there are two or three classes, for Marx applies this label to several other economic units. Two outstanding examples are the petty bourgeoisie and the peasants. The former are small shopkeepers who own no means of production or, sometimes, a very tiny morsel, and employ at most a few workers; and the latter are the owners of small plots of land which they farm themselves."

As we will discuss in the following sections, imperialism has changed over time, particularly during the last one hundred years (where its forms and methods have evolved with the evolving needs of capitalism). But even in the classic days of empire building imperialism was driven by economic forces. In order to make one's state secure, it had to be based on a strong economy; and by increasing the area controlled by the state, one increased the wealth available. Therefore states, by their nature, are expansionist bodies, with those who run them always wanting to increase the range of their power and influence. This can be best seen from the massive number of wars that have occurred in Europe over the last 500 years, as nation-states were created by Kings declaring lands to be their private property. Here we will focus mainly on modern capitalist imperialism. As power depends on profits within capitalism, this means that modern imperialism is caused more by profit and other economic factors than purely political considerations (although, obviously, this factor does play a role)."

Two such types, socialism and capitalism are the most common. Capitalism is often referred to as a free market economy in its purest form; a common type of socialism is communism. Embedded in these economic systems are political and social elements that influence the degree of purity of each system. In other words, many capitalist nations have elements of socialism interwoven. So even though there are different degrees or levels of commitment to the ideals of capitalism, there are several traits that are common among all capitalists. Top Characteristics1. Two-class system: Historically a capitalist society was characterized by the split between two classes of individuals—the capitalist class, which owns the means for producing and distributing goods (the owners) and the working class, who sell their labor to the capitalist class in exchange for wages. The economy is run by the individuals (or corporations) who own and operate companies and make decisions as to the use of resources. But there exists a “division of labor” which allows for specialization, typically occurring through education and training, further breaking down the two class system into sub-classes (e.g., the middle class).2."

"text": "\"Economic Systems: Capitalism, Communism, and Socialism An economic system consists of the institutions and the method by which resources are allocated and products and services are distributed. Economic systems differ primarily in who owns the factors of production, how the allocation of resources is directed and the method used to direct economic activity. The primary distinction between the different systems is the degree to which the government participates in the economy. Communism Communism, also known as a command system, is an economic system where the government owns most of the factors of production and decides the allocation of resources and what products and services will be provided. The most important originators of communist doctrine were Karl Marx and Frederick Engels. Like the socialists before them, they wanted to end the exploitation of the masses by the few. The capitalist system at that time required workers to work under harsh and dangerous conditions for little pay. The end goal of communism was to eliminate class distinctions among people, where everyone shared equally in the proceeds of society, when government would no longer be needed. Karl Marx agreed with Louis Blanc in how labor and income should be managed: \"\"From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.\"\" However, it seems clear from history that Adam Smith had the correct principle, which is that people work in their own self-interest."

[ 1] There is not only one definition of a mixed economy, [2] but two major definitions are recognized. The first of these definitions is a mixture of markets with state interventionism, referring to capitalist market economies with strong regulatory oversight, interventionist policies and governmental provision of public services. The second definition is apolitical in nature and strictly refers to an economy containing a mixture of private enterprise with public enterprise. [ 3]In most cases and particularly with reference to Western economies, a mixed economy refers to a capitalist economy characterized by the predominance of private ownership of the means of production with profit-seeking enterprise and the accumulation of capital as its fundamental driving force. In this system, markets are subject to varying degrees of regulatory control and governments wield indirect macroeconomic influence through fiscal and monetary policies designed to counteract capitalism’s history of boom/bust cycles, unemployment and income disparities. In this framework, varying degrees of public utilities and essential services are under public ownership and state activity is often limited to providing public goods and universal civic requirements like healthcare, physical infrastructure and management of public lands. [ 4] [5]In reference to post-war Western and Northern European economic models as championed by Christian democrats and social democrats, the mixed economy is defined as a form of capitalism where most industries are privately owned with only a small number of public utilities and essential services under public ownership. In the post-war era, European social democracy became associated with this economic model. [ 6] As an economic ideal, mixed economies are supported by people of various political persuasions, typically centre-left and centre-right, such as social democrats [7] or Christian democrats."

Part of a series on Marxism Theoretical works [show]Philosophy [show]Economics [show]Sociology [show]History [show]Aspects [show]Variants [show]People [show]Socialism portal Communism portal Philosophy portalv t e Marxism is a method of socioeconomic analysis that frames capitalism through a paradigm of exploitation, analyzes class relations and social conflict using a materialist interpretation of historical development and takes a dialectical view of social transformation. It originates from the works of 19th century German philosophers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Marxism uses a methodology known as historical materialism to analyze and critique the development of capitalism and the role of class struggles in systemic economic change. According to Marxian theory, class conflict arises in capitalist societies due to contradictions between the material interests of the oppressed proletariat —a class of wage labourers employed by the bourgeoisie to produce goods and services—and the bourgeoisie—the ruling class that owns the means of production and extract their wealth through appropriation of the surplus product ( profit) produced by the proletariat. This class struggle that is commonly expressed as the revolt of a society's productive forces against its relations of production, results in a period of short-term crises as the bourgeoisie struggle to manage the intensifying alienation of labor experienced by the proletariat, albeit with varying degrees of class consciousness. This crisis culminates in a proletarian revolution and eventually leads to the establishment of socialism —a socioeconomic system based on social ownership of the means of production, distribution based on one's contribution and production organized directly for use. As the productive forces continued to advance, Marx hypothesized that socialism would ultimately transform into a communist society; a classless, stateless, humane society based on common ownership and the underlying principle: \"\" From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs \"\". Marxism has developed into many different branches and schools of thought, though now there is no single definitive Marxist theory. [ 1] Different Marxian schools place a greater emphasis on certain aspects of classical Marxism while rejecting or modifying other aspects."

Unsourced material may be challenged or removed. ( March 2016)Capitalism is an economic system. In it the government plays a secondary role. People and companies make most of the decisions, and own most of the property. Goods are usually made by companies and sold for profit. The means of production are largely or entirely privately owned (by individuals or companies) and operated for profit. [ 1] [2]Most property, for example, is owned by people or companies, not by the government. Capitalism has a more or less free market economy, which means that prices move up or down according to the availability of the products."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For the book by István Mészáros, see Marx's Theory of Alienation (book). The 19th-century German intellectual Karl Marx (1818–1883) identified and described four types of Entfremdung (social alienation) that afflict the worker under capitalism. Part of a series on Marxism Theoretical works [show]Philosophy [show]Economics [show]Sociology [show]History [show]Aspects [show]Variants [show]People [show]Socialism portal Communism portal Philosophy portalv t e Karl Marx's theory of alienation describes the estrangement (Ger. Entfremdung) of people from aspects of their Gattungswesen (\"\"species-essence\"\") as a consequence of living in a society of stratified social classes. The alienation from the self is a consequence of being a mechanistic part of a social class, the condition of which estranges a person from their humanity. The theoretic basis of alienation, within the capitalist mode of production, is that the worker invariably loses the ability to determine life and destiny, when deprived of the right to think (conceive) of themselves as the director of their own actions; to determine the character of said actions; to define relationships with other people; and to own those items of value from goods and services, produced by their own labour. Although the worker is an autonomous, self-realized human being, as an economic entity, this worker is directed to goals and diverted to activities that are dictated by the bourgeoisie, who own the means of production, in order to extract from the worker the maximum amount of surplus value, in the course of business competition among industrialists. Karl Marx expressed the Entfremdung theory, of estrangement from the self, in the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844 (1932). Philosophically, the theory of Entfremdung relies upon The Essence of Christianity (1841), by Ludwig Feuerbach, which states that the idea of a supernatural god has alienated the natural characteristics of the human being. Moreover, in The Ego and its Own (1845), Max Stirner extended Feuerbach's analysis that even the idea of \"\"humanity\"\" is an alienating concept for individuals to intellectually consider in its full philosophic implication; Marx and Engels responded to these philosophic propositions in The German Ideology (1845)."

"text": "\"Chapter 2 Modes of Production and Historical Development1. The Concept of a Mode of Production Structural Marxism develops the principle of economic determination by means of the concept of a mode of production, the latter serving as both the principle of \"\"articulation\"\" of a given conjuncture, that is, the structure that determines the interrelationships between the various instances within a social formation, and as the principle of \"\"periodization,\"\" that is, the concept on which the historical succession of conjunctures is organized. \"\" Marx's construction of the central concept of the mode of production,\"\" Etienne Balibar insists, \"\"has the function of an epistemological break with respect to the whole tradition of the philosophy of history. . . . The concept of the mode of production and the concepts immediately related to it thus appear as the first abstract concepts whose validity is not as such limited to a given period or type of society, but one on which, on the contrary, the concrete knowledge of this period and type depends\"\" (Althusser and Balibar 1970, 201). In his important contribution to Reading Capital , \"\"The Basic Concepts of Historical Materialism,\"\" Balibar elaborates on Marx's central insight, that \"\"it is always the direct relationship of the owners of the conditions of production to the direct producers . . . which reveals the innermost secret, the hidden basis of the entire social structure\"\" (Marx, quoted in Althusser and Balibar 1970, 221). Balibar's goal, and the goal of the various anthropologists, historians, and sociologists whose work we will take up in this chapter, is a― 84 ―concept of a mode of production applicable to different degrees of generality and levels of abstraction—from social formations \"\"in general\"\" (in the sense that all social formations contain a determinant economic structure), through societies dominated by distinct modes of production (lineage, \"\"Asiatic,\"\" simple property, slave, feudal, capitalist, and so on), to historically specific conjunctures (France in 1789, England during the Industrial Revolution, and so on). The problem is not primarily one of classification; Structural Marxists are uninterested in developing a finite number of pigeonholes into which empirical descriptions of all known societies may be forced, nor are they interested in arranging modes of production into an evolutionary series of historical stages mechanically following one after the other in accordance with some ultimate goal or originary essence. The problem addressed by the concept of a mode of production is one of producing knowledge rather than classifying data. One looks at societies from the standpoint of a mode of production and from a certain level of abstraction, but this is not to say that additional specificity, that is, knowledge at a more historically determinate level, is produced deductively or reductively from general concepts."

"text": "What is Marxism Print Rob Sewell and Alan Woods 15 March 2000Share Tweet+1We are reproducing a slightly edited version of What is Marxism? by Rob Sewell and Alan Woods, last published in 1983 to celebrate the centenary of the death of Karl Marx. The three articles on the fundamental aspects of Marxism, Marxist Economics, Dialectical Materialism and Historical Materialism were originally published separately in the 1970s. These articles are a good, brief introduction to the basic methods of Marxism and can serve as a first approach to the ideas developed by Marx and Engels. An Introduction to Dialectical Materialism Introduction to Historical Materialism Introduction to Marxist Economics1983 Introduction Marxism, or Scientific Socialism, is the name given to the body of ideas first worked out by Karl Marx (1818-1883) and Friedrich Engels (1820-1895). In their totality, these ideas provide a fully worked-out theoretical basis for the struggle of the working class to attain a higher form of human society--socialism. While the conceptions of Marxism have been subsequently developed and enriched by the historical experience of the working class itself, the fundamental ideas remain unshaken, providing a firm foundation for the Labour Movement today. Neither before, nor since the lifetime of Marx and Engels have any superior, more truthful or scientific theories been advanced to explain the movement of society and the role of the working class in that movement. A knowledge of Marxism therefore equips the proletariat theoretically for the great historic task of the Socialist transformation of Society. It is this fact which explains the constant and bitter attacks on all aspects of Marxism which have been delivered by every conceivable defender of the existing social order--from the Tory to the Fabian, from the Jesuit priest to the University professor."

"text": "Russia 1917-1967 A Socialist Analysis Trotsky | Stalin | Soviet Union | Russian Revolution | Lenin Preface In 1948 we published a pamphlet ‘Russia Since 1917: Socialist Views of Bolshevik Policy’, consisting of a reprint of articles from our journal THE SOCIALIST STANDARD during the years 1915-48. The following note appeared in the Preface:“In the articles themselves, no attempt has been made to interfere with the original text. The articles stand just as they are written. We have nothing to fear from letting our original words stand. There are, it is true, passages in some of the earlier articles which, were we writing them today in the light of information now available, we would phrase differently; but these are points of detail. In essentials, the articles stand as overwhelmingly testimony to the soundness of the Marxist position – the position of the Socialist Party of Great Britain. ”When the pamphlet was sold out and the question arose of issuing a new edition, it was decided not to repeat the old form – reprinted articles – but to have it as a new pamphlet covering the same ground along with developments since 1948; with the same purpose as before, to show the soundness of the attitude adopted by the Socialist Party of Great Britain from the outset. The reader may ask why we think it important to understand the theories and actions of those who came to power in Russia in 1917 and those who have governed for half a century. Now that Russia is a great world power does it matter what deceptions and self-deceptions marked the course of development? It matters vitally to the workers of all countries because the same wrong theories are still impeding the achievement of Socialism."

"text": "Social Science Sociology What is conflict theory?i need an example of it Follow 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Hi Ayla, Each of the major theories used by sociologists attempts to help us understand how and why the patterns of behavior that characterize social systems occur, are maintained, or change over time. Conflict theory focuses on divergent interests of members of society. It assumes that people act as they do to further their interests and that doing so is sometimes at the expense of the interests of others. That's where the conflict comes in. A common example is the conflicting interests of owners and workers in a company. Owners want to achieve high profits and workers want high wages. The owners may behave in ways that keep the wages they pay their workers low so as to maximize profits. Workers may organize a labor union and bargain with the owners to increase their wages. Each side acts as they do and interacts with the other side due to conflicting goals and definitions of what's going on. Another example currently in the news is the tendency of those struggling economically to blame immigrants for stealing jobs from them and other citizens."

Gabriel Alone I stand in the autumn cold On the tip of Orange Island, The Xiang flowing northward; I see a thousand hills crimsoned through By their serried woods deep-dyed, And a hundred barges vying Over crystal blue waters. Eagles cleave the air, Fish glide under the shallow water; Under freezing skies a million creatures contend in freedom. Brooding over this immensity, I ask, on this bondless land Who rules over human destiny?-----Mao Zedong (1925)T he 1949 Chinese Revolution was a transformative, epochal event, not only for the Chinese but for the rest of humanity, as well. If the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution in Russia (that resulted in the creation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics or Soviet Union) inaugurated an international competition for the hearts and minds of people all over the globe, the Chinese revolution raised the stakes of that struggle. The popular media, academics, political leaders and others in the \"\"West\"\" produced an understanding of this struggle as between \"\" capitalism \"\" and \"\" communism ,\"\" although these terms are rarely defined in more than loose and unusually flexible terms, and in spite of the fact that the Chinese revolution was shaped by domestic struggles with a long history within China, much more so than by global struggles between two super-systems. Nevertheless, the intensity of the perceived global struggle between super-systems was shaped, in part, by the fact that communist ideology, as represented by certain statements of Vladimir Lenin, the central intellectual and political figure of the Bolshevik Revolution, was understood as grounded upon an idea of worldwide revolution --- all nations would, according to the logic (teleology) of this (orthodox) version of Marxism, ultimately succumb to communism. ( The Soviet leadership expressly supported the idea of \"\"worldwide revolution\"\" and took steps to help achieve this objective, including organization and leadership of the Communist International or Comintern, although C. L. R. James, among others, argued that Stalin's political machinations sabotaged international solidarity within the communist movement.) The threat to \"\"spread the revolution\"\" created, at the least, the illusion of a mortal conflict (mortal from the standpoint of the elites who stood to lose if the resolution went against them). In other words, this idea of worldwide revolution and the efforts by Soviet leaders and communists in other countries to make it a reality presented little room for compromise between the opposing camps (on the one side, the supporters of the existing social system in the Western nations and, on the other side, the communist movement)."

Lenin very rarely mentioned Africa in his writings on colonialism, but inferences about Africa can be drawn from Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism and other works. Most bourgeois writers on the partition of Africa make snide remarks on the Leninist explanation of imperialism. Because they have already established a near monopoly of what is written on the subject, it is necessary to frame this analysis as a refutation of common misconceptions. Furthermore - as is so often the case with the works of Marx, Engels, and Lenin - many hostile criticisms are based on sheer ignorance of the texts. Thus the reader must bear with frequent quotations. Lenin is generally said to have professed an \"\"economic\"\" theory of imperialism. This gives rise to the criticism that his theory was one-sided, because Europeans carved up Africa for several reasons-economic, political, social-humanitarian, psychological, etc. Of course Marxism does not concern itself solely with some so-called \"\"economic\"\" aspect of society. It is a world-view which perceives the presence of multiple variants within the complexity of human society, and seeks to unravel their relationship with reference to the material conditions of existence."

Peter’s Capitulation and Paul’s Correction (Galatians 2:11-21)As today is my father’s birthday, I am inclined to reflect upon some of my memories of my father and me. Even though my dad and I had our confrontations, they never lasted long. For example, I remember one occasion at the dinner table when I had corrected my younger brother. Since he was nearly ten years younger than I, I felt that he should obey me. Needless to say, he did not agree with me, and he told me to “shut up.” I then attempted to physically enforce my authority with what I considered to be some needed discipline, but my father intervened. What troubled me at the time was that Dad didn’t seem to think punishment was required in this case. ( Now, years later, I have to admit he may have been right.) I had felt our differences should be settled on the basis of whether or not it was right for my brother to tell anyone to “shut up,” and I was angry that my father did not back me up."

A correction may sound like it means something is getting \"\"fixed\"\" on Wall Street, but actually it's a word used to describe both a trigger for financial losses, as well as buying opportunities for investors. So what is a correction? How does one come about? What does it mean for the stock market? CNBC explains. What is a correction? A correction is a decline or downward movement of a stock, or a bond, or a commodity or market index. The amount of the decline is at least 10 percent and a true correction exceeds that amount. In short, corrections are price declines that stop an upward trend."

"text": "What happened in the 1926 general strike? Matthew Cookson looks at how for nine days a mass strike had the ruling class living in fear and how the strike failed to achieve victory For the first time in decades there is the prospect of a general strike in Britain. Hundreds of thousands of workers are striking this week, and there are serious plans for an even bigger strike in the autumn. Dave Prentis, leader of the Unison union, said of autumn’s prospective action, “It will be the biggest since the General Strike. It won’t be the Miners’ Strike. We are going to win. ”The 1926 General Strike was a defining moment in British history. But its details—and the lessons that should be taken from it—are little known. The General Strike was the culmination of struggles that rocked the ruling elite in Britain before and after the First World War. The General Strike ended a 16-year period of intense militancy on the part of the British working class."

"text": "Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load What is 'Capitulation'Capitulation is when investors give up any previous gains in stock prices by selling equities, to get out of the market. Capitulation involves extremely high volume and sharp declines. It also usually involves panic selling. The term is a derived from a military term which refers to surrender. Next Up Hammer Double Top Panic Selling Bullish Engulfing Pattern BREAKING DOWN 'Capitulation'After capitulation selling, many traders think there are bargain buying opportunities. The belief is that everyone who wants to sell a stock for any reason, including forced selling due to margin calls, has already sold. The price should then, theoretically, reverse or bounce off the lows. In other words, some investors believe that capitulation is the sign of a bottom. Investors can only identify capitulations after they have occurred. While traders often attempt to anticipate capitulation selling or buying, the reality is that capitulations are outcomes that result from the maximum psychological and financial pain that can be endured by investors before liquidating their positions.

Launius Introduction Visions of Technological Success American Response to Sputnik Birth of NASAIntroduction Few Americans considered the reception on Friday, 4 October 1957, at the Soviet Union's Embassy in Washington, DC, to be anything out of the ordinary. It was the appropriate culmination of a week-long set of international scientific meetings. It was also, in the cynical Cold War world of international intrigue between the United States and the Soviet Union, an opportunity to gather national security intelligence and engage in petty games of one-upmanship between the rivals. This one would prove far different. The one-upmanship continued, but it was far from petty. To a remarkable degree, the Soviet announcement that evening changed the course of the Cold War. Dr. John P. Hagen arrived early at the party; he wanted to talk to a few Soviet scientists, those he considered personal friends from long years of association in international scientific organizations, to learn their true feelings about efforts to launch an artificial satellite as part of the research effort known as the International Geophysical Year (IGY). Hagen, a senior scientist with the Naval Research Laboratory, headed the American effort to launch a satellite for the IGY, code named Project Vanguard. It was behind schedule and over budget. Was the same true of the Soviet Union, or would it go up in 1958 as planned?"

It is an ordinary incident of war, and therefore no previous instructions from the captors' government are required before finally settling the conditions of capitulation. The most usual of such conditions are freedom of religion and security of private property on the one hand, and a promise not to bear arms within a certain period on the other. Such agreements may be rashly concluded with an inferior officer, on whose authority the enemy are not in the actual position of the war entitled to place reliance. When an agreement is made by an officer who has not the proper authority or who has exceeded the limits of his authority, it is termed a \"\"sponsion\"\", and, to be binding, must be confirmed by express or tacit ratification. The Hague Convention on the laws and the customs of war lays down that capitulations agreed on between the contracting parties must be in accordance with the rules of military honor."

The only way you get that correction is prices crash down to cash costs, which for a U. S. producer, is somewhere around $20 a barrel. \"\" However, Fatih Birol, the executive director of the International Energy Agency (IEA), told CNBC on Tuesday that low prices would prompt U. S. producers to cut output, creating upward price pressure. \"\" When we look at the next few quarters, we expect U. S. oil production to decline because of low oil prices and in Iraq, production growth will be much slower than in the past. And the demand is creeping up,\"\" Birol told CNBC on Tuesday from the Oil & Money conference. \"\" So therefore, to think that oil prices will be with us forever may not be the right way of thinking. \"\""

"text": "\"Capitulations of the Ottoman Empireupdate16th century copy of the 1569 Capitulations between Charles IX and Selim II. Capitulations of the Ottoman Empire were contracts between the Ottoman Empire and European powers, particularly France. Turkish capitulations, or ahdnames, were generally bilateral acts whereby definite arrangements were entered into by each contracting party towards the other, not mere concessions. [ 1]The Turkish Capitulations were grants made by successive Sultans to Christian nations, conferring rights and privileges in favour of their subjects resident or trading in the Ottoman dominions, following the policy towards European states of the Byzantine Empire. Contents1 History2 Status3 Abolition4 See also5 References6 Bibliography7 External links History France had already signed a first treaty or Capitulations with the Mamluk Sultanate in Cairo in 1500, during the rule of Louis XII, [ 2] [ 3] in which the Sultan of Egypt had made concessions to the French and the Catalans. This treaty was upheld by the Ottoman Empire when the later captured the Mamluk Sultanate in 1517, following the Ottoman–Mamluk War (1516–1517). Draft of the 1536 Treaty or Capitulations negotiated between French ambassador Jean de La Forêt and Ibrahim Pasha, a few days before his assassination, expanding to the whole Ottoman Empire the privileges received in Egypt from the Mamluks before 1518. Francis I was the first king of France who sought an alliance with the Ottoman Empire, leading to a Franco-Ottoman alliance. To this he was urged, not by the Crusading spirit but entirely by the desire to break in Europe the dominating power of the imperial Habsburg House of Austria. By compelling Austria to use its forces for defence against the Turks in the East, he hoped to weaken it and render it unable to increase or even maintain its power in the West."

"text": "\"The Decline of the Ottoman Empire: Part 1 Politics and Economics Throughout Islamic history, empires rose and fell for 1400 years. The Umayyads, Abbasids, Mamluks, Mughals, and Ottomans are just some of the major dynasties of Islam that rose to prominence, achieved a golden age, and eventually fell and were only remembered in the history books. Ibn Khaldun, in his brilliant book on historiography, The Muqaddimah, states that “dynasties have a natural life span like individuals” and that “it [a dynasty] grows up and passes into an age of stagnation and then into retrogression.” The insightful words of Ibn Khaldun in 1337 hold true for the history of the last great Muslim empire – the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Empire began as a small state of Turkish sultans in Anatolia (present-day Turkey) in 1300. By 1453, they were a force to be reckoned with, controlling land in Europe and Asia, with a capital at Istanbul. By the mid-1500s, the empire had reached its zenith under Sultan Süleyman. At that time, it was by far the most powerful and largest empire in Europe, and also controlled North Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, and parts of Persia. However, as Ibn Khaldun stated, this dynasty would eventually go into a time of stagnation, and finally decline. This post will analyze two factors that helped bring about the decline of the Ottomans from the 1500s through the 1800s – a weak and ineffective government and economic stagnation."

"text": "Mythology of the constellation Capricornus Home The representation of CAPRICORNUS, The Sea-Goat or Goat-Fish, as a creature with the head and body of a goat and the tail of a fish, may well have originated from Assyro-Babylonian depictions of their god of wisdon Oannes, who was half-man, half-fish. In Greek mythology, this constellation is associated with the time the Olympian gods sought refuge in Egypt. Unfortunately, following their epic battle with the Titans, peace did not last for long, as the monster Typhon, son of the Titan Tartarus and Earth, sought revenge. Typhon was a fearsome fire-breathing creature, taller than mountains and with arms which possessed dragons' heads in place of fingers. The Olympian gods sought to escape by adopting various disguises: Zeus, a ram - Hera, a white cow, Bacchus (another version of the myth suggests Pan) a goat. As Typhon approached, Bacchus/Pan threw himself into the Nile but, in a panic, only succeeded in changing part of his body, ending up with a goat's body and the tail of a fish. Meanwhile, Zeus had been dismembered by Typhon, but was saved when Bacchus/Pan let out an ear-splitting yell, distracting the monster long enough for an agile Hermes to collect the supreme god's limbs and carefully restore him. In gratitude, Zeus transferred Bacchus/Pan to the heavens. Developed and maintained by Chris Peat, Heavens-Above Gmb H. Please read the FAQ before sending e-mail. Imprint ."

Capricorn | Source Earth & The Myth of The Sea-Goat Capricorn holds the element of earth. Generally speaking, the element of earth in an astrological sign means stability, physical power, or a sense of security. The Greek mythology surrounding Capricorns starts with \"\"Pricus,\"\" who was said to be the father of the sea-goats, who were his children. The sea-goat children loved to frolic by the seashore and were known for their intelligence and honor, but because so many of them stayed on to land for so long, they lost their tails and began to grow full goat legs. Pricus was devastated over the loss of his children and even went so far as to turn back time in order to save some of them. Alas, this did not stop the sea-goat children from straying too long on land. Eventually, Pricus made a deal with the Gods to take his life in order to spare his sea-goat children."

Gerry Picus Most of the well-known star constellation names date back to ancient Greece or earlier, but the precise list remained somewhat fuzzy until the early 20th century. Then, in a series of resolutions from 1922 to 1930, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) divided the celestial sphere into 88 precisely defined constellations with official spellings and abbreviations. Every constellation name has two forms: the nominative, for use when you're talking about the constellation itself, and the genitive, or possessive, which is used in star names. For instance, Hamal, the brightest star in the constellation Aries (nominative form), is also called Alpha Arietis (genitive form), meaning literally \"\"the Alpha of Aries.\"\" When space is at a premium, this is written α Ari, using the lower-case Greek letter alpha and the abbreviation for Aries.

The passing of the autumn equinox means that the days are beginning to shorten and weather is becoming colder for people in the Northern Hemisphere, but that isn't all that's changing. Observers looking up on cool fall nights can be treated to constellations not seen every month of the year. The traditional constellations of autumn have a rich body of lore and mythology associated with them, although there are very few bright stars in the regions that are currently spread across the southern skies during the evening hours. Little can be seen there when the sky is hazy or flooded with moonlight, but since the moon arrived at full phase last Thursday (Sept. 19) and is now setting later, the evening sky is getting darker. [ See Amazing Photos of the Full Harvest Moon]On clear moonless evenings this week, you will find some interesting constellations, though their figures are all rather dim. This whole area can be called the \"\"watery\"\" part of the sky because it is dim, or \"\"like a dark pool,\"\" as Guy Ottewell, editor of the annual Astronomical Calendar noted. At one time, these watery constellations — Capricornus, the Sea-Goat; Aquarius, the Water Bearer; Pisces, the Fishes; Piscis Austrinus, the Southern Fish; Cetus, the Whale; and finally Eridanus, the River — might have symbolized the rainy season. There is also a mythological connection between these star pictures and an ancient great flood in the Tigris-Euphrates basin."

Ancient sources tell several different stories about Orion; there are two major versions of his birth and several versions of his death. The most important recorded episodes are his birth somewhere in Boeotia, his visit to Chios where he met Merope and after he violated her, was blinded by her father, Oenopion, the recovery of his sight at Lemnos, his hunting with Artemis on Crete, his death by the bow of Artemis or the sting of the giant scorpion which became Scorpio, and his elevation to the heavens. Most ancient sources omit some of these episodes and several tell only one. These various incidents may originally have been independent, unrelated stories and it is impossible to tell whether omissions are simple brevity or represent a real disagreement. In Greek literature he first appears as a great hunter in Homer 's epic the Odyssey, where Odysseus sees his shade in the underworld. The bare bones of Orion's story are told by the Hellenistic and Roman collectors of myths, but there is no extant literary version of his adventures comparable, for example, to that of Jason in Apollonius of Rhodes ' Argonautica or Euripides ' Medea; the entry in Ovid 's Fasti for May 11 is a poem on the birth of Orion, but that is one version of a single story.

There are two symbols which are often used in the medical profession to refer to medicine. These are the Caduceus (the winged staff of Hermes entwined with two snakes) and the Rod of Asclepius (A rod with one snake coiled around it in the process of shedding its skin). The latter is by far the more appropriate symbol, and is far more ancient in usage than the Caduceus which has been erroniously used as a symbol for medicine for some time due to confusion between the two symbols in the middle ages. There are several theories about the snake on the rod. Several of which are based in symbolism or mythology.

The rod of Asclepius (also known as the rod of Asklepios, rod of Aesculapius or asklepian)...is an ancient Greek symbol associated with astrology and with healing the sick through medicine. It consists of a serpent entwined around a staff. Asclepius, the son of Apollo, was practitioner of medicine in ancient Greek mythology. The Star of Life features a rod of Asclepius. Symbolism The rod of Asclepius symbolizes the healing arts by combining the serpent, which in shedding its skin is a symbol of rebirth and fertility, with the staff, a symbol of authority befitting the god of Medicine. The snake wrapped around the staff is widely claimed to be a species of rat snake, Elaphe longissima, also known as the Aesculapian or Asclepian snake.

"text": "Constellation Names Constellation names, like the names of stars, come from a variety of sources and each has a different story and meaning to it. Old constellations’ names usually come from Greek mythology, while the constellations created more recently were mostly named after scientific instruments and exotic animals. However, there are no strict rules because the stories of the constellations differ from one constellation to the next. Constellation names that come from Greek mythology or refer to figures from Greek and Roman myths, as zodiac constellations do, are probably the ones that are best known. They were created and documented by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century A. D. Constellation names associated with figures from mythology were given to a number of prominent constellations. These include most of the members of the Perseus family (Perseus, Andromeda, Cassiopeia, Cetus, Cepheus, Pegasus, and Auriga), the Hercules family (Hercules, Sagitta, Aquila, Lyra, Cygnus, Hydra, Crater, Corvus, Ophiuchus, Serpens, Centaurus, Lupus, Corona Australis, and Ara), the Orion family (Orion, Canis Major, Canis Minor, Lepus, Monoceros), the Zodiac family (Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpius, Sagittarius, Capricornus, Aquarius, Pisces), and the Ursa Major family (Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, Draco, Canes Venatici, Boötes, and Corona Borealis). Constellations named after scientific instruments were mostly created by Nicolas Louis de Lacaille in the 18th century. They include Norma, Circinus, Telescopium, Microscopium, Octans, and Reticulum. The constellations that carry names of exotic animals were for the most part introduced by the Dutch navigators Pieter Dirkszoon Keyser and Frederick de Houtman in the 16th century, and mainly include members of the Johann Bayer family: Dorado, Grus, Tucana, Chamaeleon and Volans among others.

"text": "\"What Is Capsular Contracture? Reviewed by Walter Erhardt, MDTweet Capsular contracture is a breast augmentation complication that develops when internal scar tissue forms a tight or constricting capsule around a breast implant, contracting it until it becomes misshapen and hard. As a result, the breast may feel painful and stiff, and the capsule may affect the appearance or shape of the breast. Capsules actually form around every breast implant, silicone or saline. Scar tissue is the body's natural response to the placement of any foreign object. It is only when that scar tissue tightens or contracts and restricts the movement of the implant that the breast may develop capsular contracture. Symptoms of capsular contracture often begin within months of the original breast augmentation surgery, but capsular contracture can occur at any time. About 75 percent of capsules occur within the first two years following surgery. Symptomatic capsular contracture rates are lower with saline implants than with silicone gel implants. If a capsular contracture occurs around a gel implant many years after augmentation, it could be a sign of an implant rupture."

Capsular contracture is a response of the immune system to foreign materials in the human body. Medically, it occurs mostly in context of the complications from breast implants and artificial joint prosthetics. The occurrence of capsular contraction follows the formation of capsules of tightly-woven collagen fibers, created by the immune response to the presence of foreign objects surgically installed to the human body, e.g. breast implants, artificial pacemakers, orthopedic prostheses; biological protection by isolation and toleration. Capsular contracture occurs when the collagen-fiber capsule shrinks, tightens and compresses the breast implant, much like the collapse of a bubble gum bubble.

Take a moment to look at a diagram to see the size and location of the muscles that make up your chest wall. Notice that the pectoralis major muscle is a large fan-shaped muscle. You will see that it does not cover the lower, outer aspect of the chest wall. Most surgeons detach the muscle from its lower origin along the ribs when placing the implant under it. This means that only about half the implant is covered by the muscle. The bigger the implant, the less of it that is covered. The pectoralis minor muscle is much smaller and lies under the outer edge of the pectoralis major. The serratus muscle lies along the sides of your chest wall. The main sensory nerves to your breast come up between the slips of this muscle to enter the back of your breast tissue and from there to the rest of your breast."

One of the most common questions women have, when they come to see me about breast augmentation, is: “ Should I have my breast implants placed over or under the muscle? ” I think most women feel that there is one “right” answer, owand usually they think the implant should be under the muscle (this is usually a result of having done some research on the Internet and speaking with friends beforehand). I love that women are getting involved in the decisions about their bodies; this is important, but as I say to every patient: keep an open mind about what’s best for you until I examine you and understand your goals. But know this: under the muscle placement is not the necessarily the best for each and every woman. There are many factors I take into account when making a decision for my patients: implant type (saline or silicone), implant shape (round or tear drop), implant size, and the patient’s body type, especially how much breast tissue she has to cover the implant. Breast augmentation is an incredibly individualized surgery. This is why I spend a great deal of time with each patient pre-surgery explaining the best implant, the best size, and the best implant position: over or under the muscle.

With silicone implants, there have been no reliable studies to determine if they leak. An MRI is recommended every three years but most people don’t do that.

A group of 9 patients was identified who had discrete, painful loss of internal rotation associated with refractory impingement syndrome. The duration of symptoms averaged 18 months (range, 11 to 33 months), and all patients failed a course of physical therapy specifically addressing loss of internal rotation. Six patients reported traction as the mechanism of injury, and 3 developed motion loss and pain following a posterior capsular shift procedure. All patients underwent arthroscopy, and were observed to have a thickened posterior capsule. An arthroscopic release of the posterior capsule improved motion in all patients, with substantial relief of pain. At an average of 19 months follow-up (range, 11 to 35 months), internal rotation in 90° of abduction improved from 10° preoperatively to 47° postoperatively, and there were no complications related to the procedure. We conclude that chronic loss of internal rotation secondary to posterior capsular contracture may be an explanation for refractory pain in some patients with an initial diagnosis of impingement syndrome. This condition appears to be amenable to arthroscopic posterior capsular release.

"text": "According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (A. S. P. S.), breast augmentation was the top female cosmetic surgery in 2010, with 296,000 surgeries performed. Plastic surgery for breast implants has become increasingly popular. Some women, however, experience problems with their implants and others simply don’t like the results. Some women who had previous breast augmentation feel their breasts no longer look natural as they have gotten older or gained weight. This causes them to feel self-conscious. Of course, gravity can take its toll as well!Whatever the reason, breast implant removal, also known as breast explanation, can often be a simple solution. But there can be risks and complications you need to be aware of before making your decision. What will your breasts look like afterwards? If you have no extra procedures done, such as a breast lift or implant replacement, you may be disappointed with the look of your breasts after breast implant removal. Common reasons for removing breast implants First, let’s look at some of the most common reasons for breast implant removal: Medical reasons: Deflation, rupture, leakage or shifting of the implant."

"text": "The most frequent revision that is required after breast augmentation is capsular contracture treatment. The most common cause is thought to be due to bacterial contamination or the presence of blood around the implant. While there is evidence to justify these theories, the true nature of capsular contracture still remains an enigma. Surgeons can reduce the chances of a capsular contracture with good technique, but even when everything is done right, contracture can still occasionally happen. The critical components to minimize the chances of occurrence are: precise and bloodless surgery, avoiding any bacterial contamination of the implant, avoiding the nipples' incision, encouraging early activity, and using the proper type of antibiotic and irrigation. Should capsular contracture occur, the treatment is invariably surgical. The procedure is called a “complete capsulectomy;” it involves removing all of the scar tissue in an exact and bloodless manner, using a brand new implant (since the contracture may be related to bacteria it is important to never reuse the old implant), and placing a drain. Some surgeons have spoken about using asthma medicines such as Accolate or Singulair to treat contracture, but not only is the evidence for these proposed treatments very tenuous, these medicines have significant side effects as well. Motrin, massage, ultrasound, Vitamin E, and many other remedies have been tried with mixed or minimal success. With proper technique the rates of revision contracture are very low, but they are not zero."

"text": "Why Do Breast Implants Need To Be Replaced? Posted on February 1, 2009 | 1 Comment When it comes to breast implants one thing that must always be kept in mind is that they are made of something that will gradually breakdown overtime. As the implant gets older the walls of the implant become weaker and will eventually fail leading to an implant rupture. This of course is just one of the many reasons why a breast implant would need replacement but it is inevitable as all breast augmentation patients will eventually have to get the implant replaced. When the implant is first placed into it’s pocket, the body will form a capsule around it which will be composed of scar tissue. While in many cases it is this capsule that will protect your body in the event that the implant ruptures, it can also be one of the reasons why your implants may need to be replaced. In a complication known as capsular contracture, the capsule that surrounds the breast implants becomes to thick which means that the space inside it is too small to house the implant. This causes excessive pressure on the implant and may eventually cause it to rupture. The implant itself if it is positioned incorrectly may also rupture as a result of its placement. Should the implant’s pocket be made too big allowing the implant to move around the friction will cause heat and stress which will lead to an implant rupture."

"text": "\"Heidi Wunder, Senior Editor Published 15 January 2005Saving the Dislocated IOLWhile phaco tools, lenses and surgical techniques have advanced sufficiently to make cataract surgery an outpatient procedure, there's also been a creep up in some post-surgical complications. In this article, Samuel Masket, MD, of Los Angeles, explains the upswing in incidence of late posterior chamber lens dislocation and describes how he approaches each case of a malpositioned intraocular lens. \"\" We've learned over time that certain conditions, pseudoexfoliation being a primary example, are associated with a progressive contracture of the anterior lens capsule following surgery,\"\" says Dr. Masket. He says the ophthalmic literature is finally showing what a number of surgeons have been experiencing: In as few as five, or as many as 10 years following cataract surgery with capsulorhexis, progressive zonular weakness due to anterior capsule contraction with phimosis can lead to late dislocation of the bag/IOL complex. Dr. Masket attributes late IOL dislocation to the otherwise-positive adoption of capsulorhexis. \"\" Before 1990, most cataract surgeons were making the anterior capsulotomy in a can-opener fashion that removed a larger part of the capsule,\"\" he says. \"\" Because no uninterrupted anterior capsule ring was left behind, fibrosis rarely resulted. But now, in some cases, we note that the anterior capsular remnant undergoes fibrometaplasia with potential phimosis and zonular instability. \"\" Those Most at Risk Among those patients at greater risk for capsular phimosis and fibrosis post-surgery are those with pseudoexfoliation syndrome, followed by patients with chronic anterior segment inflammation or uveitis, retinitis pigmentosa, myotonic dystrophy, some patients with diabetes, and post-vitrectomy patients. In general, Dr. Masket names those with a chronic breakdown in the blood-aqueous barrier."

Capsular contracture is a response of the immune system to foreign materials in the human body. Medically, it occurs mostly in context of the complications from breast implants and artificial joint prosthetics. The occurrence of capsular contraction follows the formation of capsules of tightly-woven collagen fibers, created by the immune response to the presence of foreign objects surgically installed to the human body, e.g. breast implants, artificial pacemakers, orthopedic prostheses; biological protection by isolation and toleration. Capsular contracture occurs when the collagen-fiber capsule shrinks, tightens and compresses the breast implant, much like the collapse of a bubble gum bubble.

"text": "\"What Is Capsular Contracture? Reviewed by Walter Erhardt, MDTweet Capsular contracture is a breast augmentation complication that develops when internal scar tissue forms a tight or constricting capsule around a breast implant, contracting it until it becomes misshapen and hard. As a result, the breast may feel painful and stiff, and the capsule may affect the appearance or shape of the breast. Capsules actually form around every breast implant, silicone or saline. Scar tissue is the body's natural response to the placement of any foreign object. It is only when that scar tissue tightens or contracts and restricts the movement of the implant that the breast may develop capsular contracture. Symptoms of capsular contracture often begin within months of the original breast augmentation surgery, but capsular contracture can occur at any time. About 75 percent of capsules occur within the first two years following surgery. Symptomatic capsular contracture rates are lower with saline implants than with silicone gel implants. If a capsular contracture occurs around a gel implant many years after augmentation, it could be a sign of an implant rupture."

"text": "What are the Symptoms of Capsular Contracture from an Implant? August 3, 2012 By Gail Leave a Comment The below question is answered by Charleston breast surgeon Dr. James Craigie of The Center for Natural Breast Reconstruction. What are the symptoms of capsular contracture from an implant? Capsular contracture is commonly described using the four-grade Baker Scale. Grade I — the breast is normally soft and appears natural in size and shape Grade II — the breast is a little firm, but appears normal. Grade III — the breast is firm and appears abnormal Grade IV — the breast is hard, painful to the touch, and appears abnormal The symptoms can be varying from mild to severe. Mild capsular contracture may only be detectable by your surgeon . If the process worsens and becomes severe it may lead to changes in the breast that a person easily could tell themselves. In other words, the shape may change, the breast may become different in shape, and clothes may begin to fit differently. The breast may become hard and the skin and tissue over the implant can change in appearance and color."

A group of 9 patients was identified who had discrete, painful loss of internal rotation associated with refractory impingement syndrome. The duration of symptoms averaged 18 months (range, 11 to 33 months), and all patients failed a course of physical therapy specifically addressing loss of internal rotation. Six patients reported traction as the mechanism of injury, and 3 developed motion loss and pain following a posterior capsular shift procedure. All patients underwent arthroscopy, and were observed to have a thickened posterior capsule. An arthroscopic release of the posterior capsule improved motion in all patients, with substantial relief of pain. At an average of 19 months follow-up (range, 11 to 35 months), internal rotation in 90° of abduction improved from 10° preoperatively to 47° postoperatively, and there were no complications related to the procedure. We conclude that chronic loss of internal rotation secondary to posterior capsular contracture may be an explanation for refractory pain in some patients with an initial diagnosis of impingement syndrome. This condition appears to be amenable to arthroscopic posterior capsular release.

Twenty three, active, asymptomatic professional (Major League Baseball) pitchers volunteered for the study. Clinical measures of glenohumeral ranges of motion, laxity, GIRD, as well as radiographic measures of humeral retroversion were taken by two independent orthopaedic surgeons. Data comparing side to side differences in range of motion, laxity, and humeral retroversion were analyzed for statistical significance using a paired t-test for continuous data and a Chi-squared test for ordinal data, with a significance set at 0.05. Evaluations of statistical correlations between different measurement parameters were accomplished using a Pearson product moment correlation. We hypothesized GIRD will be positively correlated with humeral retroversion (HR) in the pitching arm. All clinical and radiographic measures were made in the field, at spring training, by physicians of both private and institutional based sports medicine practices. For the entire group, significant differences were exhibited for HR, external rotation at 90° and internal rotation at 90°, for dominant vs. non-dominant arms. GIRD of greater than 25° was noted in 10/23 of pitchers. In this group, HR was significantly increased and correlated to GIRD."

"text": "Fri 24Breast Augmentation & Capsular Contracture Posted by admin on Jan 24, 2014 in Cosmetic Surgery |What Is Capsular Contracture? Capsular contracture is one of the most common complications associated with breast augmentation surgery. This results from an excessive reaction of the immune system to foreign objects. After breast augmentation, your body forms fibrous tissue that encapsulates the implant in an attempt to wall it off. When the fibrous capsule tightens and squeezes the implant, capsular contracture occurs. Signs and Symptoms The signs and symptoms of capsular contracture commonly appear gradually and may first be observed as a high-riding or misshapen breast. As firmness increases, the breast may feel tight or even painful, especially when you are lying on them. The breasts can appear very round, almost ball-like, and visible rippling may also be noted. Degrees of Severity According to Dr. Baker, a renowned surgeon, capsular contracture is divided into four stages. Baker staging of capsular contracture: Baker Grade One: the breast looks and feels soft."

One of the most common complications from breast augmentation is capsular contracture or capsular contraction, a condition that results in distorted and sometimes even painful, hard breasts. Read on to learn more about the signs of capsular contracture, your capsular contracture treatment options and Cassileth Plastic Surgery's innovative technique which permanently handles this condition. A capsule is the normal tissue that the body produces surrounding a breast implant. Usually, it is pretty thin, sometimes almost transparent. The capsule is larger than the implant, allowing them both to move around and feel soft. In capsular contracture, the capsule becomes thicker and tightens which makes the space for the implant smaller and smaller. Some Signs of capsular contracture can be the implant rising to a higher position on the chest or the breast looking oddly constricted and artificially round, like a baseball. The capsule can get so small that the implant feels firm (grade 3 capsular contracture) or can even feel hard and be painful (grade 4 capsular contracture). Studies show that up to 26.9% of women who receive breast implant surgery will develop Capsular Contracture."

Many of these risks are the same as the risks for mastectomy. However, there are some risks that are unique to implant reconstruction. Scars: No matter which type of surgery you decide to have, you will have scars in the breast area. Scars do fade and recede over time in most women, but they don't go away completely. Still, most scars are generally out of sight during daily activities, even in a bathing suit or low-cut top or dress. Capsular contracture: Once a breast implant is in place, scar tissue forms around it, creating what's called a tissue capsule. These tissue capsules usually are soft or slightly firm and not noticeable. But in a small number of women, a hard tissue capsule forms that can be painful and distort the shape of the breast. This is called capsular contracture."

"text": "\"Breast implant and tissue expander methods of breast reconstruction are ideal for those women who do not have enough of their own tissue to use for reconstructing the breast or those who simply desire an implant-based reconstruction. One advantage of using an implant to reconstruct the breast is that the only incisions required are those used during the mastectomy portion of the procedure. For those patients who have already had a mastectomy, the scars from the mastectomy can be utilized to perform the implant breast reconstruction. Breast reconstruction with a tissue expander and Implant usually involves at least three stages. The first stage involves the temporary placement of a tissue expander beneath the chest wall musculature in order to \"\"stretch\"\" the overlying skin and muscle, creating the pocket that will ultimately contain the permanent implant. Tissue expanders can be placed at the same time as the mastectomy ( immediate reconstruction) or months to years after a mastectomy ( delayed reconstruction ). Most women today are electing to have immediate reconstruction (reconstruction performed at the same time as the mastectomy), but occasionally immediate reconstruction is not recommended due to factors that are related to the breast cancer itself. In both immediate and delayed forms of breast reconstruction, this first stage is termed Tissue Expansion.

Repetitive forceful compression, tensile stress, and resistive flexion, causes inflammation, swelling, and microtrauma, that results in thickening (commonly a nodular formation) of the tendon distal to the pulley and stenosis of the tendon sheath leading to a painful digital base, limitation of finger movements, triggering, snapping, locking, and deformity progressively. Patients report a popping sound at the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIP), morning stiffness with/without triggering, delayed and sometimes painful extension of the digit, and when more advanced, a locking position that requires manipulation to extend the affected finger. This condition more commonly affects the middle and ring fingers (occasionally the thumb), and the flexor rather than extensor tendons in the hand. [ 1]In rheumatic trigger finger (or in diabetes ), more than one finger may be involved.

"text": "Exercise After Breast Reduction Surgeryby RACHEL NALL Sept. 11, 2017Breast reduction surgery is an option for men and women whose breasts are not only a cosmetic concern, but also can cause back, neck and shoulder pain. Also known as reduction mammoplasty, breast reduction surgery involves the removal of fat, skin and tissue in the breasts to reconstruct your breast in a smaller size identified by you and your physician. As surgical techniques improve, recovery time following breast reduction surgery often is reduced. However, your return to exercise activities may take an extended period of time to ensure your chest tissue has sufficient time to properly heal. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Post-surgery Swelling and inflammation is common following breast reduction surgery. To minimize this swelling, your physician will recommend you sleep on your back with your chest elevated to minimize swelling. At this time, exercise is not advised because exercise can be jarring to your breast tissue because of the risk for bleeding and swelling. After the first two weeks following surgery, you may begin walking for exercise to help you burn calories. Because walking does not place excess strain on your chest wall, it is the best exercise to perform in the month after surgery. Listen to Your Body After obtaining your physician’s approval, you can begin to return to the typical exercises you engaged in before surgery."

"text": "Glenohumeral Internal Rotation Deficit Rehab GIRD Glenohumeral Internal Rotation Deficit Dr. Lintner Matt Holland, PTThe throwing shoulder must be mobile enough to allow the extremes of external rotation needed to throw a ball, but it is a delicate balance between mobility and stability that is needed to perform the demands of the overhead throwing motion without undue strain on the other structures of the shoulder joint. Increased external rotation with a loss of internal rotation ROM is a natural adaptation in the thrower’s shoulder. Multiple theories exist as to how the adaptations occur including changes in humeral retroversion and repetitive microtrauma to the posterior capsule leading to thickening and contracture of the posture capsule of the shoulder. When this loss of internal rotation exceeds 20-25 degrees from the non throwing side excessive strain on the structures of the shoulder may result in further problems and shoulder pathology including superior labral tears (SLAP tears), biceps tendonitis, rotator cuff tendonitis or tears, and pain with throwing will occur. When the arm is in the cocked position the posterior capsule moves under the humeral head and if the posterior capsule is too tight it is like a hammock that is strung too tight pushing the humeral head upward and resulting in increased strain and shear on the labrum, rotator cuff, and biceps tendon. As the shoulder moves from a cocked position forward during acceleration this posterior capsule tightness creates increased shear that will damage these structures over time. For many years we have worked diligently on stretching the posterior capsule to improve internal rotation ROM and decrease pain and injury in the thrower’s shoulder. We have primarily focused on stretching internal rotation with the “Sleeper’s Stretch” position. Recently in following up with these athletes we have noticed that their internal ROM in abduction at 90 degrees improves, but many are still exhibiting tightness of the posterior shoulder into horizontal adduction across the body. Therefore we have begun to focus not only on internal rotation stretching with the Sleeper stretch, but also working on cross body adduction."

"text": "\"Glenohumeral Internal Rotation Deficit The thrower's paradox.he thrower’s shoulder must be lax enough to allow excessive external rotation, but stable enough to prevent symptomatic humeral head subluxations, thus requiring a delicate balance between mobility and functional stability. We refer to this as the “thrower’s paradox.” This balance is frequently compromised, which leads to injury. The overhand throwing motion occurs in six phases. Although many other movements have been studied (such as the volleyball spike, golf swing, and tennis serve), there are enough parallels between movements that the overhand throw serves as the most commonly used model. The goal of the motion is to sequentially develop a package of potential energy that is then converted to kinetic energy that can be imparted to the ball in an efficient and fluid manner. Quite remarkably, shoulder loads are minimal as the arm rotates internally at velocities greater than 7000 deg/sec. The entire throwing motion takes less than 2 seconds. The wind-up and cocking phases require approximately 1.5 seconds. The acceleration phase takes approximately 0.05 seconds, and the deceleration and follow-through phases take approximately 0.35 seconds."

Working under the supervision of licensed physical therapists, PTAs use massage, heat treatment, exercise and other non-invasive means to treat disease, injury and deformity. There is immense personal satisfaction that results from reducing physical suffering and pain and improving the functional mobility of the patients they serve. SHOW ME SCHOOLS »PTAs use their knowledge of anatomy and physiology – especially the musculoskeletal and nervous systems – to carry out treatment plans prescribed by physical therapists. They may be training a patient to walk with crutches or a walker; assisting with the correct technique in completing an exercise program; using modalities such as heat, ultrasound or electrical stimulation to decrease pain; teaching aquatics exercises; or instructing a patient and family in safety techniques for home. Workplace Details Physical therapy is performed in a variety of different work environments including hospitals, clinics, medical offices, schools and rehabilitation centers. The hours can vary significantly depending on the setting. In a school setting, you will typically have the same schedule as a teacher.

"text": "\"Arnold Schwarzenegger Highest Rated: 100% Terminator 2: Judgment Day 3D (2017)Lowest Rated: 0% The Villain (1979)Birthday: Jul 30, 1947Birthplace: Thal, Styria, Austria While his police-chief father wanted him to become a soccer player, Austrian-born actor Arnold Schwarzenegger opted instead for a bodybuilding career. Born July 30, 1947, in the small Austrian town of Graz, Schwarzenegger went on to win several European contests and international titles (including Mr. Olympia) and then came to the U. S. for body-building exhibitions, billing himself immodestly but fairly accurately as \"\"The Austrian Oak.\"\" Though his thick Austrian accent and slow speech patterns led some to believe that the Austrian Oak was shy a few leaves, Schwarzenegger was, in fact, a highly motivated and intelligent young man. After graduating from the University of Wisconsin with a degree in business and economics, he invested his contest earnings in real estate and a mail-order bodybuilding equipment company. A millionaire before the age of 22, Schwarzenegger decided to try acting. Producers were impressed by his physique but not his mouthful of a last name, so it was as Arnold Strong that he made his film bow in the low-budget spoof Hercules in New York (1970, with a dubbed voice). He reverted to his own name for the 1976 film Stay Hungry, then achieved stardom as \"\"himself\"\" in the 1977 documentary Pumping Iron. In The Villain (1979), a cartoon-like Western parody, he played \"\"Handsome Stranger,\"\" exhibiting a gift for understated comedy that would more or less go unexploited for many years thereafter. With Conan the Barbarian (1982) and its sequel, Conan the Destroyer (1984), the actor established himself as an action star, though his acting was backtracking into two-dimensionality (understandably, given the nature of the Conan role). As the murderous android title character in The Terminator (1984), Schwarzenegger became a bona fide box-office draw, and also established his trademark of coining repeatable catchphrases in his films: \"\"I'll be back,\"\" in Terminator, \"\"Consider this a divorce,\"\" in Total Recall (1990), and so on."

It can be bought at home depot or lowes I believe. Get the deck nice and wet then saturate the surface with the cleaner using a pump sprayer. Wait about 20-30 min, occasionally wetting areas that are beginning to dry. The next step is to us a low pressure power washer. Too high and it will leave markings on the deck. Some really bad areas may need some scrubbing with a push broom. Power wash until the soapy bubbles from the washer disappear. May not get all the spots out but should help some.

"text": "\"Poor Okay Good Great Awesome Technically, it's based on a couple. Mainly, author Tom Clancy based his book (turned into a hit film in 1990) on the real-life mutiny of Valery Sablin, the political officer aboard the highly-advanced Russian warship Storozhevoy (which translates to English as Sentry) in 1975. Initial intelligence in the West, based on what little information made it through the Iron Curtain, suggested Sablin intended to defect, like Capt. Marko Ramius (played by Sean Connery) in \"\"The Hunt for Red October.\"\" But in fact, he intended instead to sail for Leningrad and launch a revolution against what he considered a corrupt Soviet regime that had strayed from true Communism. Some have also said that Clancy based other parts of his story -- specifically the covert, cloak-and-dagger style search-and-rescue operation -- on the story of the nuclear-armed Russian submarine K-129, which sank in the Pacific near Hawaii in 1968. The Russians were reportedly unable to find it, but the Americans did in 1974. The CIA launched Project Azorean, a top-secret operation to retrieve the wrecked sub that rested 3.1 miles down. That story leaked in the press in 1975, which is likely where Clancy would have seen it. More information surfaced later, after the collapse of the Soviet Union and opening up of official files on both sides of the Cold War."

This most recent incident adds to a growing list of products that have experienced shortages, including chemotherapeutic agents. The shortage of saline solutions has coincided with cold and flu season, a time of the year when demand for IV fluids typically increases. Additionally, saline solutions are critical in the treatment of the most vulnerable patients, including cancer, dialysis, surgical, septic, and other critically ill patients. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has been working with hospitals and healthcare professionals to examine factors that led to the IV solution shortage. The FDA is also working with the manufacturers to develop an effective response. Medscape spoke with Capt. Valerie Jensen, RPh, Associate Director of the Drug Shortages Program in FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research and a US Public Health Service officer, about FDA's response.

Born July 9, 1956, in Concord, CA, Hanks spent much of his childhood moving about with his father, an itinerant cook, and continually attempting to cope with constantly changing schools, religions, and stepmothers. After settling in Oakland, CA, he began performing in high-school plays. He continued acting while attending Cal State, Sacramento, and left to pursue his vocation full-time. In 1978, Hanks went to find work in New York; while there he married actress/producer Samantha Lewes, whom he later divorced. Hanks debuted onscreen in the low-budget slasher movie He Knows You're Alone (1979). Shortly afterward he moved to Los Angeles and landed a co-starring role in the TV sitcom Bosom Buddies; he also worked occasionally in other TV series such as Taxi and Family Ties, as well as in the TV movie Mazes and Monsters. Hanks finally became prominent when he starred opposite Daryl Hannah in the Disney comedy Splash!, which became the sleeper hit of 1984. Audiences were drawn to the lanky, curly headed actor's amiable, laid-back style and keen sense of comic timing."

The battle, which occurred on June 25–26, 1876, near the Little Bighorn River in eastern Montana Territory, was the most prominent action of the Great Sioux War of 1876. It was an overwhelming victory for the Lakota, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho, led by several major war leaders, including Crazy Horse and Chief Gall, inspired by the visions of Sitting Bull (Tȟatȟáŋka Íyotake). The U. S. Seventh Cavalry, including the Custer Battalion, a force of 700 men led by George Armstrong Custer, suffered a severe defeat. Five of the Seventh Cavalry's companies were annihilated; Custer was killed, as were two of his brothers, a nephew, and a brother-in-law. The total U. S. casualty count, including scouts, was 268 dead and 55 injured. Public response to the Great Sioux War varied at the time. The battle, and Custer's actions in particular, have been studied extensively by historians.

The battle took place on May 8, three days before the formal declaration of war on Mexico by the United States. Arista ordered two cavalry charges, first against the American right flank and later against the left. Both were unsuccessful.

Their taste is subtle, it is a slightly mild anise-flavor with mild earthy and nutty tastes to it as well. ** Caraways seeds have been used both for medicinal and cooking purposes for a long time. Ancient Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians used the seeds in their breads and fruit dishes in order to stimulate digestion and to fight colds and illnesses. ** In the Victorian era, caraway became quite popular for a whole bunch of reasons. They used caraway seeds to freshen their breath and help aid digestion. They also supposedly believed that putting caraway seeds in men’s pockets would keep the men faithful to their wives and that anything that caraway touched could not be stolen. Finally, the Victorian’s believed that caraway was an essential ingredient in love potions. **"

Caraway Seeds Cumin and caraway are both in the parsley family. They are similar in appearance and taste, though cumin has a stronger, hotter flavor. Use caraway seeds in place of cumin seeds, or ground caraway in place of ground cumin. Start with half as much as the recipe calls for, and adjust upwards to suit your tastes. This substitute shouldn't affect the color of your recipe. Ground Coriander As another member of the parsley family, ground coriander is another option, though using it will change the flavor of your recipe some. It has the earthy, lemony flavor of cumin, but lacks the heat. Start with half as much coriander. Then, consider adding a bit of chili powder to add the heat back."

This aromatic and spicy, Tunisian hot chile sauce can be used to liven up dishes as you would any other hot sauce, it can also be used as a dip or a marinade. It brings a great depth of flavor to fish, meat, roasted vegetables, egg dishes, soups, stews, potatoes or rice. Add it to sandwiches, pizza, condiments like hummus or a homemade mayo. The list goes on and on and on some more. OK I’ve got one more, spread some of that harissa paste on some toast, add a lil avocado, maybe a fried egg. You are welcome.

It is mostly found in Indian cooking, where it is also known as bishop’s weed or carom. It is particularly suited to the delicate vegetarian fare found in the state of Gujarat. Spice Description Ajwain seeds are used as a spice. The grayish-green seeds are striped and curved (similar to cumin or caraway seeds in appearance), often with a fine silk stalk attached. They are usually sold whole. The seeds are often chewed on their own for medicinal value, tasting bitingly hot and bitter, leaving the tongue numb for a while. Cooking ajowan mellows it somewhat. When crushed, they have a strong and distinctive thyme -like fragrance."

How to cook the perfect goulash The Hungarian original may properly be a soup, but the rich meaty flavours and distinctive spice of sweet paprika work brilliantly in this thicker stew version Felicity Cloake Thu 3 Apr 2014 03.00 EDT03.00 EDTFelicity Cloake's perfect goulash: sour cream optional. Photographs: Felicity Cloake G oulash is a dish with dual nationality. In its traditional Hungarian form, it's a soup, a thin broth studded with meat apparently favoured by cowboys ( gulyás) – a kind of central European chilli con carne, if you like. Almost everywhere else, however, it refers to the spicy meat stew known in its homeland as pörkölt (or paprikás, depending on the addition, or not, of sour cream). As we are not in Hungary, this article is concerned with the second variety – a rich stew rather than a soup. Those familiar with the first sort should thus read pörkölt for goulash thoughout. To be honest, the two dishes are not dissimilar, both characterised by a generous amount of brick-red paprika, a spice that only became popular in Hungary in the early 19th century, and which sets them quite apart from all the other beef stews you could choose to warm up a chilly spring evening. Indeed, Hungarian restaurateur George Lang writes in his book of traditional recipes that if you cook off most of the liquid in a goulash, and \"\"cook the meat down to its fat you get pörkölt \"\", allowing me to try both in pursuit of perfection. The meat George Lang's goulash: suggests using chuck steak Although almost any meat can be given the goulash treatment, including pork, poultry and game such as rabbit, beef is perhaps the original, if you believe the cowboy story, and certainly the most popular candidate. Simon Hopkinson and Lindsey Bareham observe in The Prawn Cocktail Years that it's how you treat it that matters – \"\"whichever meat you decide on, long, slow cooking is the key\"\"."

Their colors can vary, depending on the type and what types of flours and ingredients it includes. These dark, rich breads pair well with deli meats. Pumpernickel Bread Pumpernickel is a conventional German rye bread made with 100 percent rye flour. The flour is coarsely ground to produce bread with a heavy, dense texture. Less traditional recipes call for the addition of wheat flour to lighten the loaf and help the bread rise. Instead of being baked, pumpernickel is cooked through oven steaming. The dough is shaped into loaves, placed into bread pans and surrounded in the oven by pans of boiling water. As the bread cooks for several hours at a low temperature, the starch in the rye caramelizes and turns the bread a deep brown color."

"text": "R. Tsubin / Getty Images Highly aromatic caraway seeds have a distinctive mild anise flavor that adds a welcome and subtle licorice hint to many dishes. Their taste is earthy with a hint of citrus and pepper. A frequent addition to spice cabinets, caraway seeds are the dried fruit of the caraway plant, not seeds at all. Nevertheless, they're commonly referred to as caraway seeds in the culinary arts. If you've ever eaten rye bread, you no doubt tasted caraway seeds. Caraway seeds are similar in flavor to aniseed —not star anise—and you can substitute anise seeds for caraway seeds in a recipe if you don't have any caraway in your spice cabinet. Using Caraway Seeds in Cooking Caraway seeds are frequently used in baking. The seeds found in most types of rye bread and soda bread are caraway seeds, and they are a traditional ingredient in British seed cake. Caraway seeds are also used in flavoring curries, soups, sausages, vegetables and even liqueurs, such as the flavored Scandinavian spirit aquavit. They're sometimes used in pickling and brining as well."

It is a little smaller than Indiana, and is a land with fertile soil. Hungarian farmers grow enough wheat, corn, rye, potatoes, and some fruits, to feed its population. Even though many Hungarian farmers raise livestock, the quality of the animals they raise (and the meat they produce) is below the standard of Hungary's neighbors, mostly because there is not enough quality animal food available. One of the largest challenges facing Hungary is the preservation of its environment. Hungary has huge problems with air and water pollution, but the government does not have enough money or technology to minimize pollution from factories. Hungary's principal rivers are the Danube and Tisza, and the largest lake is Balaton. All three provide good fishing areas for Hungary's sport and commercial fishers.2 HISTORY AND FOODThe first people to live in present-day Hungary were nomads called the Magyars, who arrived in around A. D. 800. Hungary's national dish, a meat stew called goulash, can be traced to the Magyars' eating habits. They traveled with dried cubes of meat cooked with onions, and water could be added to make a stew."

The fruitswhich are popularly and incorrectly called seeds - and which correspond in general character to those of the other plants of this large family, are laterally compressed, somewhat horny and translucent, slightly curved, and marked with five distinct, pale ridges.

Klebsiella species and Escherichia coli (E. coli) are examples of Enterobacteriaceae, a normal part of the human gut bacteria, that can become carbapenem-resistant. Types of CRE are sometimes known as KPC ( Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase) and NDM (New Delhi Metallo-beta-lactamase). KPC and NDM are enzymes that break down carbapenems and make them ineffective. Both of these enzymes, as well as the enzyme VIM (Verona Integron-Mediated Metallo-β-lactamase) have also been reported in Pseudomonas. Healthy people usually do not get CRE infections – they usually happen to patients in hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare settings. Patients whose care requires devices like ventilators (breathing machines), urinary (bladder) catheters, or intravenous (vein) catheters, and patients who are taking long courses of certain antibiotics are most at risk for CRE infections. Some CRE bacteria have become resistant to most available antibiotics.

Bacteremia due to gram-negative bacilli is a significant problem in both hospitalized and community-dwelling patients. These organisms pose serious therapeutic problems because of the increasing incidence of multidrug resistance [ 1 ]. Gram-negative bacillary sepsis with shock has a mortality rate of 12 to 38 percent; mortality varies depending, in part, on whether the patient receives timely and appropriate antibiotic therapy [ 2-4 ]. The epidemiology, microbiology, clinical manifestations, and treatment of gram-negative bacillary bacteremia will be reviewed here. The epidemiology, clinical manifestations, and treatment of infections due to specific gram-negative bacilli are discussed separately in the appropriate topic reviews. Gram-negative bacteremia is a frequent cause of sepsis, which often must be managed prior to the receipt of microbiological data. Antibiotic treatment in the setting of sepsis in general is discussed in detail elsewhere. EPIDEMIOLOGYPrevalence — Gram-negative bacilli are the cause of approximately a quarter to a half of all bloodstream infections, depending on geographic region, whether the onset of the infection is in the hospital or community, and other patient risk factors. Hospital-onset infections — Gram-negative bacilli were once the predominant organisms associated with hospital-onset bloodstream infections in the United States [ 5 ]."

Share Email Print Feedback Approach Considerations P aeruginosa is intrinsically resistant to certain antibiotics and can potentially acquire resistance during treatment (see Presentation/Causes for risk factors). Medical Care Antimicrobials are the mainstay of therapy. Two-drug combination therapy, such as an antipseudomonal beta-lactam with an aminoglycoside, can be used. Endocarditis A high-dose aminoglycoside (eg, tobramycin 8 mg/kg/d) and an extended-spectrum penicillin in combination with a beta-lactamase inhibitor (eg, ticarcillin-clavulanate or piperacillin-tazobactam) or antipseudomonal cephalosporin (eg, cefepime) are used for 6 weeks. Renal function and aminoglycoside level should be monitored. Surgical evaluation is required because many patients with right-sided endocarditis require valvulectomy, especially if the bacteremia is not cleared after 2-6 weeks of antibiotics. For left-sided disease, early surgery is usually required for those with refractory bacteremia or hemodynamic instability. Pneumonia Most experts recommend starting with 2 antipseudomonal antibiotics and then de-escalating to monotherapy. Except in patients with cystic fibrosis, the role of an aerosolized aminoglycoside or ceftazidime is controversial. Efficacy appears to be greater in patients with cystic fibrosis, in whom aerosolized aminoglycosides have been shown to assist clinical improvement and symptom abatement."

Approximately one percent of people are colonized with the antibiotic-resistant form of staph aureus (known as MRSA). The percentage is higher for people who have been recently hospitalized. C. Diff lives all around us, too, including in human digestive systems. The problem with this superbug is that it won't cause problems until the person begins to take antibiotics for another illness. At that point, the C. Diff can colonize out of control making the infected person much sicker. Superbugs are invisible and can survive on surfaces for up to three days."

Paterson Antibiotic Management Program, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USAResistance in Gram-Negative Bacteria: Enterobacteriaceae DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.amjmed.2006.03.013Abstract Full Text References Abstract The emergence and spread of resistance in Enterobacteriaceae are complicating the treatment of serious nosocomial infections and threatening to create species resistant to all currently available agents. Approximately 20% of Klebsiella pneumoniae infections and 31% of Enterobacter spp infections in intensive care units in the United States now involve strains not susceptible to third-generation cephalosporins. Such resistance in K pneumoniae to third-generation cephalosporins is typically caused by the acquisition of plasmids containing genes that encode for extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), and these plasmids often carry other resistance genes as well. ESBL-producing K pneumoniae and Escherichia coli are now relatively common in healthcare settings and often exhibit multidrug resistance. ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae have now emerged in the community as well. Salmonella and other Enterobacteriaceae that cause gastroenteritis may also be ESBL producers, which is of relevance when children require treatment for invasive infections. Resistance of Enterobacter spp to third-generation cephalosporins is most typically caused by overproduction of Amp C β-lactamases, and treatment with third-generation cephalosporins may select for Amp C-overproducing mutants. Some Enterobacter cloacae strains are now ESBL and Amp C producers, conferring resistance to both third- and fourth-generation cephalosporins. Quinolone resistance in Enterobacteriaceae is usually the result of chromosomal mutations leading to alterations in target enzymes or drug accumulation. More recently, however, plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance has been reported in K pneumoniae and E coli, associated with acquisition of the qnr gene."

"text": "see also: CRE definition FAQs What are CRE? CRE stands for “carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae.” Enterobacteriaceae are a family of bacteria that are often found in people’s gastrointestinal tract that can cause infections both in community and healthcare settings. Some Enterobacteriaceae have become resistant to all or almost all antibiotics. In general, CRE test nonsusceptible to at least one of the carbapenem antibiotics and/or produce an enzyme (carbapenemase) that can make them resistant to these antibiotics. These bacteria often have other resistance mechanisms that render them nonsusceptible to many other classes of commonly used antibiotics. These bacteria were uncommon in the United States before 1992. Since then they have become more common primarily due to the spread of Enterobacteriaceae that produce a carbapenemase called KPC (Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase). How do Enterobacteriaceae become resistant to carbapenems? Unlike other multi-drug resistant organisms (MDRO) like MRSA for which a single mechanism leads to methicillin resistance, CRE can become nonsusceptible to carbapenems due to a number of mechanisms."

"text": "Persons using assistive technology might not be able to fully access information in this file. For assistance, please send e-mail to: [email protected]. Type 508 Accommodation and the title of the report in the subject line of e-mail. Guidance for Control of Infections with Carbapenem-Resistant or Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae in Acute Care Facilities Infection with carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) or carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae is emerging as an important challenge in health-care settings ( 1 ). Currently, carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is the species of CRE most commonly encountered in the United States. CRKP is resistant to almost all available antimicrobial agents, and infections with CRKP have been associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality, particularly among persons with prolonged hospitalization and those who are critically ill and exposed to invasive devices (e.g., ventilators or central venous catheters). This report provides updated recommendations from CDC and the Healthcare Infection Control Practices Advisory Committee (HICPAC) for the control of CRE or carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in acute care (inpatient) facilities. For all acute care facilities, CDC and HICPAC recommend an aggressive infection control strategy, including managing all patients with CRE using contact precautions and implementing Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines for detection of carbapenemase production. In areas where CRE are not endemic, acute care facilities should 1) review microbiology records for the preceding 6--12 months to determine whether CRE have been recovered at the facility, 2) if the review finds previously unrecognized CRE, perform a point prevalence culture survey in high-risk units to look for other cases of CRE, and 3) perform active surveillance cultures of patients with epidemiologic links to persons from whom CRE have been recovered. In areas where CRE are endemic, an increased likelihood exists for imporation of CRE, and facilities should consider additional strategies to reduce rates of CRE ( 2 )."

"text": "\"Antimicrobial resistance Fact sheet Updated January 2018Key facts Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) threatens the effective prevention and treatment of an ever-increasing range of infections caused by bacteria, parasites, viruses and fungi. AMR is an increasingly serious threat to global public health that requires action across all government sectors and society. Without effective antibiotics, the success of major surgery and cancer chemotherapy would be compromised. The cost of health care for patients with resistant infections is higher than care for patients with non-resistant infections due to longer duration of illness, additional tests and use of more expensive drugs. In 2016, 490 000 people developed multi-drug resistant TB globally, and drug resistance is starting to complicate the fight against HIV and malaria, as well. What is antimicrobial resistance? Antimicrobial resistance happens when microorganisms (such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites) change when they are exposed to antimicrobial drugs (such as antibiotics, antifungals, antivirals, antimalarials, and anthelmintics). Microorganisms that develop antimicrobial resistance are sometimes referred to as “superbugs”. As a result, the medicines become ineffective and infections persist in the body, increasing the risk of spread to others. Why is antimicrobial resistance a global concern?"

Food and Drug Administration has approved a new drug to treat bacterial skin infections like Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, also known as MRSA . MRSA is caused by a strain of staph bacteria that's become resistant to most antibiotics. It's life-threatening and is often found in hospitals and other health care settings. The new drug, called Dalvance, is taken intravenously. The drug is only approved for use in adults, according to the Chicago-based company that markets the drug, Durata Therapeutics. What makes it different from other MRSA antibiotics is the way it was approved. MRSA can survive for days on planes This is the first drug labeled by the FDA as a Qualified Infectious Disease Product. QIDP is part of a program that the administration hopes will encourage drug companies to develop new drugs like Dalvance that will fight the epidemic of antibiotic-resistant infections. Any drug designated QIDP by the FDA gets a priority review and expedited review process. If approved the drug also then qualifies for an additional five years of marketing exclusivity."

CRE, which stands for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, are strains of bacteria that are resistant to carbapenem, a class of antibiotic used to treat severe infections, as well as most other antibiotics commonly used today. In some cases, CRE are resistant to all available antibiotics.

CRE superbugs have a unique ability to spread and share their antibiotic-resistant qualities with healthy bacteria in your body, creating the potential to cause infections if they get into the bladder, blood or other areas where these germs don't belong. When this happens, it leads to infections that are difficult, if not impossible, to treat effectively. Who's at risk?

Two of them have died, the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center said Wednesday. CRE was a contributing factor in the deaths, but the exact cause of the deaths wasn't immediately disclosed, a hospital spokeswoman said. The medical center is contacting 179 others who had endoscopic procedures between October and January. It's offering them home tests to screen for the bacteria.

Answer by Out of Here Confidence votes 57.1KThe function of carbohydrates is to give energy to all the cells in our body and they fuel the basal metabolic rate (the rate at which we use energy at rest) and activity levels. Carbohydrates are split into four groups each have their own role in the body. The groups are: monosaccharide, d.isaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. They're used in different cells for different purposes and play an important role in the immune system, reproduction, blood coagulation, and more.

When you eat a balanced diet, your body obtains the fuel and nutrients it needs to accomplish various bodily tasks. For example, your body needs minerals to make hormones, build bones and regulate your heartbeat. Examples of minerals include calcium, sodium, potassium, iron, iodine and copper. Water is another essential component of your diet. Without it, your body can’t flush out toxins, transport nutrients to cells or perform other vital bodily processes.

Fructose is a monosaccharide, or single sugar, that has the same chemical formula as glucose but a different molecular structure. Sometimes called fruit sugar, fructose is found in fruit, some vegetables, honey, and other plants. Fructose and other sugars are carbohydrates, an important source of energy for the body. What other types of sugars are there? The food supply contains a variety of sugars called monosaccharides (single sugar units like fructose and glucose) and disaccharides (two monosaccharides linked together). Glucose is the main source of energy for the body because most complex sugars and carbohydrates break down into glucose during digestion. Starches contain many single sugar units linked together. The various sugars perform different functions in the body, but they all can provide energy. Sucrose is a disaccharide that contains equal parts of glucose and fructose."

In this chapter, I want to give readers a very brief and simplified overview of human metabolism and nutrient use. Which, for those who know a lot about the topic will realize, is an understatement of vast proportion. The complexities of human metabolism can and do fill up hundreds of pages in physiology books and this chapter should be taken with that in mind. The Basics: Energy and Building Blocks Very simplistically speaking, we can divide the uses of the nutrients (discussed last chapter) into three categories, of which I only really want to talk about two. One category, which I won’t discuss much has to do with the vitamins and minerals which both act, essentially, as nuts and bolts in the body. They fulfill any number of different roles; depending on which one you’re talking about. While critical to human health, they simply aren’t that important to the topic of this book. If you’re interested, go get yourself a book on vitamins and minerals and go to town. All I’m going to say is that you should make an effort to ensure your vitamin and mineral intake."

Glucose is an important nutrient molecule that cells rely upon for energy, both as a component of diet and when stored for later use in the form of the carbohydrate molecule glycogen. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Sources of Glucose Any food that contains carbohydrates serves as a source of glucose. Even if the food itself doesn't contain glucose, your body can break down sugar and starch in the foods you eat into glucose and other simple sugars, and can then convert the other simple sugars into glucose. Thats why carbohydrate-containing foods increase your blood glucose levels -- your body breaks them own into glucose, then absorbs the glucose into your bloodstream. Function The function of glucose in the body is an energy molecule. Cells take up glucose absorbed by the digestive tract and either use the glucose or store it for later. While proteins and fat also provide cells with energy, some body cells -- the cells of the brain in particular -- preferentially rely upon glucose, notes Dr. Lauralee Sherwood in her book, \"\"Human Physiology.\"\" Further, glucose breaks down into smaller molecules that provide building blocks for many cellular products.

And they end up right back where they started – with unwanted body fat!Well, I am here to tell you there is an easier way, a simpler way, and a funner way. It's called ‘ Steak and Eggs ‘. The Steak and Eggs diet was developed by famous bodybuilding trainer Vince Gironda as a way to burn off all excess body fat. It is the simplest diet in existence and it is one of the most effective. The Steak and Eggs diet is exactly what it sounds like – you eat Steak and Eggs, cooked in butter, and you watch the fat melt off. You eat only two meals per day: Breakfast and Supper, or Lunch and Dinner. For meal #1 you eat 3/4 lb to 1 1/2 pounds of steak and 4-6 eggs. For meal #2 you eat the exact same thing."

Eating carbohydrates provides energy to your muscles, brain and nervous system; facilitates the metabolism of fat; and ensures that the protein in your muscles is not broken down to supply energy. Because carbohydrates are so important to your body's function, any excess carbs you eat will be stored in your liver and muscles. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load How Carbohydrates Are Stored When you eat carbohydrates, they are broken down into small sugar molecules in your stomach. These molecules are transported through your digestive system and then converted into glucose by the liver to make a usable form of energy for the brain and your muscles. Any glucose that is not needed immediately for energy is converted into glycogen and stored for later use. Your body can store around 2,000 calories' worth of glycogen, which can be used when you need more energy than is currently available in your bloodstream. Loading Up the Liver Your liver stores the most concentrated amount of glycogen of all the storage sites in your body. It can hold up to about 90 to 110 grams of glycogen at any time, and this glycogen is primarily used to maintain blood sugar levels and energy levels throughout the day.

"text": "\"Understanding Carbs, Proteins, and Fats and How the Body Burns Them Carbohydrates || Fats || Proteins || Overview || Weight Loss Strategies || Related Articles || References and Resources || Leave a Comment || Search Introduction Tweet In its simplest terms, metabolic biochemistry is “fuel in, energy out”. The energy gained from burning fuel (ie: food) is used to drive all the processes going on in your body. These include the building of proteins, DNA (your genetic material), and fat, as well as mechanical things like muscle contraction. Fuel for the human body takes three basic forms: carbohydrates (sugars), protein, and fat. Humans are capable of burning all three of these fuels, but do so at different times, rates, and under different circumstances. Using an extreme example, under starvation conditions the body burns its fat stores. Once fat stores are depleted the body begins digesting non-essential proteins and then finally essential proteins, which ultimately leads to organ damage and death. Thankfully, the body is efficient and uses the best available fuel first before it has to tap into essential reserves. Top Carbohydrates Let’s start by discussing carbohydrates. Carbohydrates, or “carbs”, are simply sugar molecules linked to one another in varying arrangements."

These are carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, fiber and water. It is important to consume these seven nutrients on a daily basis to build and maintain health. Deficiencies, excesses and imbalances in diet can produce negative impacts on health, which may lead to diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, scurvy, obesity, or osteoporosis as well as psychological and behavioral problems. According to the reports of the United Nations World Health Organization (WHO: 1996), more than starvation the real challenge in developing nations today is malnutrition-the deficiency of micronutrients (vitamins, minerals and essential amino acids) that no longer allows the body to ensure growth and maintain its vital functions. We will discus about the sources, classification, importance and deficiency diseases of carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins and minerals in this unit. Learning Objectives After reading this chapter, you are expected to learn about: Describe about carbohydrates, their sources, structure and classification;Explain the properties of carbohydrates, and their importance and functions in human body;Identify carbohydrates deficiency diseases;Describe about proteins, their structure, bond and classification;Explain the properties of proteins and their functions in human body;Identify the protein deficiency disease;Describe about vitamins and their classifications;Explain the properties, sources and functions of vitamins;Identify the vitamin deficiency disease;Describe about minerals and their kinds;Identify the sources and explain the function of minerals; and Recognize the mineral deficiency diseases. Carbohydrates Carbohydrates are the polyhydroxy organic compounds made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in which the ratio of hydrogen and oxygen hydrogen is 2:1 exactly as H2O (2:1).

"text": "\"Home » Diet & Nutrition May 19, 2011A Metabolic Paradigm Shift, or Why Fat Is the Preferred Fuel for Human Metabolism By Mark Sisson510 Comments Print There’s a good reason so many people (mostly the sugar-burners, whose disparate group includes fruitarians, veg*ans, HEDers, body-builders, most MDs, the USDA and virtually every RD program in the country) can’t seem to grasp why a lower carb, Primal approach to eating is a better choice for health and fitness: their fundamental paradigm – the core theory that underpins everything else in that belief system – is flawed. They remain slaves to the antiquated notion that glucose is the king of fuels, so they live their lives in a fear of running low. The truth is, fat is the preferred fuel of human metabolism and has been for most of human evolution. Under normal human circumstances, we actually require only minimal amounts of glucose, most or all of which can be supplied by the liver as needed on a daily basis. The simple SAD fact that carbs/glucose are so readily available and cheap today doesn’t mean that we should depend on them as a primary source of fuel or revere them so highly. In fact, it is this blind allegiance to the “Carb Paradigm” that has driven so many of us to experience the vast array of metabolic problems that threaten to overwhelm our health care system. It boggles my mind that such a large segment of the so-called health and fitness community would continue to defend high carbohydrate diets with such tenacity. It should all be very obvious by now. The studies keep piling up indicating that carbohydrate intake is the major variable in determining body composition and that excess glucose from carbohydrate intake (especially from processed grains and sugars) is the primary culprit in obesity and in many disease processes. It follows logically that if you can limit carb intake to a range of which is absolutely necessary (and even up to 50 grams a day over) and make the difference up with tasty fats and protein, you can literally reprogram your genes back to the evolutionary-based factory setting you had at birth – the setting that offered you the opportunity to start life as a truly efficient fat-burning organism and to continue to do so for the rest of your life as long as you send the right signals to your genes."

One reason for this is the ability of carbon to form four covalent bonds with a large number of elements. These compounds are stable and can be either chains or rings.

By Graham Templeton on June 22, 2015 at 10:33 am 18 Comments Facebook Twitter Google Plus Reddit Hacker News It might seem like a silly question, one that could be answered in just a few short words: Silicon is the 14th element on the Periodic Table. It’s one of the fundamental constituents of the universe, one proton heavier than aluminum, one proton lighter than phosphorus. Yet silicon, more than almost any other element, comes up all too often on a site like Extreme Tech — it is a major component in the building materials that make up your home, it’s the basis of all current computer processors, and it’s even the most likely candidate to underlie alien, non-carbon-based life. What exactly makes silicon so special? Well, a lot of things. Silicon as building block Foremost among silicon’s distinguishing features is that, quite simply, there is a hell of a lot of it. After oxygen, it’s the second most abundant element in the Earth’s crust — but don’t expect to find it just lying around. Silicon is almost never found in a pure state in nature, and virtually always comes as a compound with other elements. It’s most commonly found as a silicate (Si O 4 , or one silicon atom bound to four oxygen atoms) and silica (Si O 2, or one silicon atom bound to two oxygen atoms)."

And it turns out that the time it takes to compensate for the energy used and the greenhouse gases emitted in photovoltaic panel production varies substantially by technology and geography. That’s the bad news. The good news is that the industry could readily eliminate many of the damaging side effects that do exist. Indeed, pressure for it to do so is mounting, in part because, since 2008, photovoltaics manufacturing has moved from Europe, Japan, and the United States to China, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Taiwan; today nearly half the world’s photovoltaics are manufactured in China.

For example, most commercial steels are classified into one of three groups: plain carbon, low-alloy, and high-alloy. Steel classification systems are set up and updated frequently for this type of information. Generally, carbon is the most important commercial steel alloy. Increasing carbon content increases hardness and strength and improves hardenability. But carbon also increases brittleness and reduces weldability because of its tendency to form martensite. This means carbon content can be both a blessing and a curse when it comes to commercial steel. And while there are steels that have up to 2 percent carbon content, they are the exception. Most steel contains less than 0.35 percent carbon. To put this in perspective, keep in mind that's 35/100 of 1 percent."

Silicon dioxide or silica is one of the hardest and most common materials in the Earth’s crust. It has a Mohs hardness of 7, being 10 the maximum (diamond). It forms nearly two thirds of the Earth’s continental crust and it is still common further down in the mantle! Even more common are the silicate minerals, 90% of the crust (this includes all minerals which have silica and another element usually one which forms cations, for example magnesium) is made up of these silicates. Pure silica is usually found in the form of quartz (crystalline silica). Finally, its uses are abundant and varied; we will see two of the main ones.

Hydrogen and helium are the most abundant elements in the Universe, but these are less abundant on the Earth as most of the hydrogen and almost all of the helium escaped to outer space since these were light gases that eventually escaped the Earth's gravitational pull. Helium gas is unreactive and so was almost totally lost. Hydrogen remained as it reacts readily with oxygen to form water (and with other elements to form hydrides, some is present as hydrogen sulphide gas). Note that the most abundant element on Earth is oxygen, by a long way, and by no coincidence it is also the most abundant element in living things on Earth. This is the first point - organisms build their bodies primarily from the most abundant elements in their environment. Hydrogen is quite abundant on Earth aswater (hydrogen oxide) and is also a common constituent of life on Earth - living things may be as much as 90% water (the human body varies from about 30% to 70% water, depending upon fat content). The first animals and proto-plants to appear on the Earth lived in water and it is no surprise that when they colonised the land they took their environment with them - body fluids have a close resemblance to sea-water. This water serves as a solvent in which many chemicals dissolve and the chemical reactions of life occur.

You should have already read it anyway, but we're still in Chapter 9, pages 193 to 213, and you should be sure tostudy the photographs and diagrams carefully and pay special attention to those diagrams which show you the silicate structures and don't forget tofollow the study plan and the study guide and be sure to go back and review the learning objectives to make sure you've learned each one. I won't go over the objectives with you this time because they're same as the last lesson, and they are written out for you in the study guide. One of the characteristic features of minerals is the crystal structure, so in this program we want to take a look at the arrangement of the atoms and ions that make up crystals to see if we can relate that to the larger scale properties of the physical properties of minerals, so let's take a look at crystal growth briefly for a second. There are basically two different ways in which crystals can form."

[ 1] The active site of most carbonic anhydrases contains a zinc ion; they are therefore classified as metalloenzymes. One of the functions of the enzyme in animals is to interconvert carbon dioxide and bicarbonate to maintain acid-base balance in blood and other tissues, and to help transport carbon dioxide out of tissues.

Typical catalytic rates of the different forms of this enzyme ranging between 10 4 and 10 6 reactions per second. [ 3]The reverse reaction is relatively slow (kinetics in the 15-second range) in the absence of a catalyst.

Download high quality TIFF image Breathing In, Breathing Out Breathing is a fundamental function in life - ever wondered what really happens when we breathe? The air we breathe in has precious oxygen that fuels the breakdown of sugars and fat in our cells. In our lungs, oxygen diffuses into the blood, binds to hemoglobin and is transported to all the cells of our body (see the Molecule of the Month feature on hemoglobin ). Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of sugar and fat breakdown in cells and needs to be removed from our body. Again, blood acts as a transport medium. Carbon dioxide diffuses out of cells and is transported in blood in a few different ways: less than 10% dissolves in the blood plasma, about 20% binds to hemoglobin, while the majority of it (70%) is converted to carbonic acid to be carried to the lungs. An enzyme present in red blood cells, carbonic anhydrase, aids in the conversion of carbon dioxide to carbonic acid and bicarbonate ions. When red blood cells reach the lungs, the same enzyme helps to convert the bicarbonate ions back to carbon dioxide, which we breathe out. Although these reactions can occur even without the enzyme, carbonic anhydrase can increase the rate of these conversions up to a million fold."

"text": "\"Home »Chemistry What Are the Functions of Carbonic Anhydrase? By Scott Auerbach; Updated March 13, 2018Carbonic anhydrase is a crucial enzyme that operates in animal cells, plant cells, and in the environment to stabilize carbon dioxide concentrations. Without this enzyme, the conversion from carbon dioxide to bicarbonate, and vice versa, would be extremely slow, and it would be nearly impossible to carry out life processes, such as photosynthesis in plants and people exhaling carbon dioxide during respiration. Although it performs a lot of beneficial functions, it can also damage the human body as well, even causing some forms of cancer. In Humans Carbon dioxide is produced as waste from breaking down sugars and fats and in respiration, so it has to be transported through the body to the lungs. Carbonic anhydrase converts CO2 to carbonic acid as it's transported by blood cells, before being converted back to carbon dioxide. As many bodily functions are dependent on a certain p H, carbonic anhydrase adjusts the acidity of the chemical environment to prevent damage to the body. In Plants Like animal cells, plant cells transport carbon dioxide gas as bicarbonate before converting it back to use it in photosynthesis to generate nutrition for the plant. One difference is that plant cells obtain carbon dioxide from air and soil instead of producing it. The structure can be almost completely different since it has a different amino acid sequence, and uses a zinc metal ion, which interacts with the oxygen atoms, also in a different mechanism from that of humans and animals."

This is usually done by accelerating reactions by lowering the transition state or decreasing the activation energy. Enzyme decreases activation energy Some biological reactions in the absence of enzymes may be as much as a million times slower. Virtually all enzymes are proteins, though the converse is not true and other molecules such as RNA can also catalyze reactions. The most remarkable characteristics of enzymes are their ability to accelerate chemical reactions and their specificity for a particular substrate. Enzymes take advantage of the full range of intermolecular forces ( van der waals interactions, polar interactions, hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding) to bring substrates together in most optimal orientation so that reaction will occur. Also, enzymes can be inhibited by specific molecules by called competitive, uncompetitive, and noncompetitive inhibitors. Catalysis happens at the active site of the enzyme. It contains the residues that directly participate in the making and breaking of bonds. These residues are called the catalytic groups."

The difference lies in the amino acid sequence and the catalytic efficiency. The other interesting feature of this enzyme is the existence of a large number of isoenzymes (or isozymes) [2]. For example at least 14 isozymes of the α class carbonic anhydrases have been identified.

[ 1] In renal physiology, when blood is filtered by the kidney, the filtrate passes through the tubules of the nephron, allowing for exchange of salts, acid equivalents, and other solutes before it drains into the bladder as urine. The metabolic acidosis that results from RTA may be caused either by failure to reabsorb sufficient bicarbonate ions (which are alkaline) from the filtrate in the early portion of the nephron (the proximal tubule) or by insufficient secretion of hydrogen ions (which are acidic) into the latter portions of the nephron (the distal tubule ). Although a metabolic acidosis also occurs in those with renal insufficiency, the term RTA is reserved for individuals with poor urinary acidification in otherwise well-functioning kidneys. Several different types of RTA exist, which all have different syndromes and different causes. The word acidosis refers to the tendency for RTA to cause an excess of acid, which lowers the blood's p H. When the blood p H is below normal (7.35), this is called acidemia. The metabolic acidosis caused by RTA is a normal anion gap acidosis.

"text": "Enzymes and Reaction Rates Chemical reactions occur when molecules interact and chemical bonds between them are formed or broken. Some reactions will occur just by putting two substances in close proximity. For example, iron in the presence of oxygen will form iron oxide, or rust. Other reactions require energy to get the reaction started. Once the activation energy is added, the reaction will continue if the final energy state is lower than the initial energy state. A good example is a lightning strike that starts a forest fire which, once started, will continue to burn until the fuel is used up. In biology, chemical reactions are often aided by enzymes, biological molecules made of proteins which can be thought of as facilitators or catalysts. Enzymes speed the reaction, or allow it to occur at lower energy levels and, once the reaction is complete, they are again available. In other words, they are not used up by the reaction and can be re-used. Enzymes are designed to work most effectively at a specific temperature and p H. Outside of this zone, they are less effective."

Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors reduce the activity of carbonic anhydrase, an enzyme responsible for catalyzing the reaction between carbon dioxide and water into carbonic acid and then bicarbonate. This reduces the resorption of bicarbonate from the proximal tubule in the kidneys, which causes a direct increase in bicarbonate excretion and mild increases in sodium, and potassium excretion. Generally, the electrolyte effects of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are mild and they are typically not used for their diuretic capacity. Acetazolamide, dichlorphenamide, and methazolamide are carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors also decrease the secretion of aqueous humor (the aqueous humor is the clear fluid that fills the space between the lens and the cornea of the eyeball), which results in a decrease in intraocular pressure. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are mainly used for the treatment of glaucoma or other ocular conditions where lowering of the intraocular blood pressure has been deemed beneficial. Acetazolamide is also used for the treatment and prevention of acute mountain sickness (also known as altitude sickness) and in some types of epilepsy. Dichlorphenamide may be used to treat certain inherited muscle disorders. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors may be also used in the treatment of other conditions."

However, the star of the show in this book is bicarbonate. The second star of the show is carbon dioxide (CO2). Most of the conjugate acid of bicarbonate is in the form of dissolved carbon dioxide. The rapid and direct inter-conversion of dissolved CO2 and bicarbonate ion is catalyzed by the enzyme carbonic anhydrase. Carbon dioxide is a neutral, nonpolar molecule, and can readily diffuse across membranes. Bicarbonate is a charged species of CO2, and does not cross membranes at a significant rate unless facilitated by trans-membrane channels like the magnesium calcium channel. Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) immediately reacts when it mixes with stomach acid. Na HCO (3) + HCl —> Na Cl + H (2)0 + CO (2). That is: Sodium bicarbonate + stomach acid yields salt + water + carbon dioxide."

It makes the blood ph lower therefore making it acidic. co2 react with blood to form carboxyhaemoglobine which makes it more acidic ie the p H value decreases Carbon dioxide is converted into carbonic acid with the help of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase. Carbonic acid breaks into bicarbonate and hydrogen ion. Hydrogen ion is responsible for change in p H. If carbon dioxide is used more for this conversion, then the partial pressure of carbondioxide will decrease.

Volatile substances are chemical elements or compounds dissolved in magma that form a gas at relatively low pressure and temperature 3. Geothermal area in Iceland near Lake Myvatn is a beautiful place with unpleasant odor of hydrogen sulfide. Composition of volcanic gases It was once believed that each volcano has its own particular type of gas: sulfur dioxide at Etna, hydrogen chloride at Vesuvius, carbon dioxide at Puracé (Colombia), etc. In 1850s it was demonstrated by a French mineralogist Charles Sainte-Claire Deville to be untrue 3. But each volcano nevertheless has its own character (average mixture of different gas species) which is a result of magma composition, tectonic setting, degassing depth, interactions with groundwater and hydrothermal systems, crustal composition, etc. The most important constituent of volcanic gas is water vapor (forms about 90% of all the gases 1) although the concentration is lower (about 60%) in gases coming directly from craters 3. The next most important gas species is carbon dioxide (CO 2) which makes up about 10…40% of gases. Sulfur compounds sulfur dioxide (SO 2) and hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) are also very important."

Researchers are chalking out a plan that could bridge the gap between where the technology stands and where it needs to go By Umair Irfan, E&E News on May 25, 2017Credit: Matthew Miller Flickr (CC BY 2.0)The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine is looking into another controversial tactic to fight climate change. This time, it's carbon dioxide removal and sequestration. The term encompasses several techniques that pull greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere and keep them from going back, thereby reducing warming. And scientists say the world needs to figure out what works and when to use it. “Can we pull it out again and stick it someplace where it won't do any harm?” asked Princeton University professor Stephen Pacala, who is chairing the National Academies committee for carbon dioxide removal and sequestration. “ This is a tall order, because we've put a lot of CO2 in the atmosphere. ”Scientists are concerned about the unintended consequences of nurturing ecosystems to breathe in more carbon dioxide or building machines that react with greenhouse gases and sequester them.

Why is carbon dioxide a trace gas (about 367 ppmv) rather than making up most of the atmosphere, as is the case for the sibling planets of Earth, Venus and Mars? To tackle these questions, we first need a little background. Sizes of reservoirs are given in mass units. For example, the atmospheric reservoir of carbon (mostly in the form of carbon dioxide) is about 750 Gt C ( Gigatonnes of carbon � see the glossary of scientific units for further clarification). The ocean is near 40,000 Gt C; the biosphere is near 610 Gt C; and, depending on how it is defined, soil is almost 1600 Gt C. We can immediately see that the ocean is extremely important in the study of atmospheric carbon dioxide since it is so large a reservoir and is in intimate contact with the air. Also, when considering there is about 5000 Gt C in the form of fossil fuels ready to be burned, we immediately realize that the atmosphere could be easily overwhelmed by all the carbon available for industrial use. Also we realize that planting trees, while a good thing, could not solve the problem of carbon emissions for long."

A correspondent reported one such the other day — he had been listening to a lecturer in the UK who said that it would take ‘a million years for silicate weathering to remove the extra CO2 being put into the atmosphere’. He (the listener) thought that an extraordinary claim, and asked for comment. I think it is extraordinary too, and even Wikipedia, which has a definite tendency towards AGW orthodoxy, hums and haws a bit, before saying that ‘ [t]he atmospheric lifetime of CO 2 is estimated of the order of 30–95 years’. That is plainly a lot less. Why is it important? Well, the AGW hypothesis says that adding carbon dioxide to the atmosphere must increase global temperature, which must be bad for everything and everybody. Hidden in that assertion is the notion that once a carbon dioxide molecule is added, it just stays up there. But moment’s thought indicates that since CO2 is the fuel for all plants, more CO2 must be good news to the plant world, which might use the added gas as a sort of dessert. How much do the plants take, anyway?"

The amount of atmospheric CO2, or carbon dioxide, is inextricably linked to climate. Average global carbon dioxide levels and average global temperatures go hand in hand, and temperature changes cause changes in precipitation. Concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere tend to fluctuate in a cyclical pattern over tens of thousands of years, as do worldwide periods of cold -- including Ice Ages -- and warmth. The Greenhouse Effect Carbon dioxide is the single most important temperature-regulating gas in the Earth’s atmosphere. It is a type of greenhouse gas, and is tied to temperature through a process known as the greenhouse effect. Greenhouse gases -- including, carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide -- accumulate in the upper atmosphere, where they prevent heat from dissipating into space. This heat-entrapment mechanism acts as thermal blanket, warming the Earth. Carbon dioxide and the other greenhouse gases are necessary to maintain the delicate balance that enables life on Earth; without them, the entire planet would freeze, and with too much of them, Earth’s temperatures could soar above the boiling point of water. Decreased Temperatures Because carbon dioxide traps heat in the atmosphere, a lessening of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations would mean that more heat could escape into space."

"text": "\"Online Astronomy e Text: The Planets Atmospheric Effects on Planetary Surface Temperatures1. Clouds Reflect the Heat of the Sun Away From the Planet If a planet has no atmosphere all of the sunlight which strikes it reaches the surface, and usually 90% or more of that is absorbed and 10% or less is reflected back into space. However, if the planet has an atmosphere, particularly a thick, cloud-filled atmosphere, part of the sunlight will be reflected into space before even reaching the surface. The percentage of light reflected by a planet is referred to as its albedo, and subtracting that from 100% tells us how much energy is absorbed by and heats up the planet. As an example of how this works, the Earth and Moon are the same distance from the Sun (within 1/4% accuracy) and have the same amount of sunlight falling on them, but the Moon reflects only about 10% of the sunlight that it receives and absorbs about 90% of it, while the Earth, because of its extensive cloud cover, reflects about 30% of the sunlight that it receives and absorbs only about 70%. The temperature values for the Moon vary because the highlands are lighter and reflect more light and the maria are darker and reflect less light and the values for the Earth vary according to the topography affecting local weather, but these average values are adequate for a general comparison. As a result of the difference in absorption, the Earth only receives about 2/3 as much sunlight during the day as the Moon does, and the Moon becomes much hotter, reaching temperatures in excess of 250°F, which is over 150F° hotter than normal Earth temperatures. However, clouds are not the only factor that determines a planet's temperature, as you can tell by considering the case of Venus, which has an albedo of 65%, meaning that it only absorbs 35% of the sunlight which falls on it, which is only half as much as the Earth absorbs. If all other factors could be ignored this difference in heat absorption would completely make up for the fact that Venus is only 70% as far from the Sun as we are, and the Earth and Venus would have similar surface temperatures; and until the early 1970's, it was presumed that Venus had temperatures that weren't all that much higher than those of the Earth. In that era and earlier it was generally thought that surface conditions on Venus were similar to those in the Sahara (hot and dry), or the Amazon basin (hot and wet)."

He was claiming, after all, to have invented a machine that could clean the atmosphere of its excess carbon dioxide, making the gas into fuel or storing it underground. And the Columbia University scientist was aware that naming his two-year-old startup Global Thermostat hadn’t exactly been an exercise in humility. But the reception in the spring of 2009 had been even more dismissive than he had expected. First, he spoke to a special committee convened by the American Physical Society to review possible ways of reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere through so-called air capture, which means, essentially, scrubbing it from the sky. They listened politely to his presentation but barely asked any questions. A few weeks later he spoke at the U. S. Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory in West Virginia to a similarly skeptical audience. Eisenberger explained that his lab’s research involves chemicals called amines that are already used to capture concentrated carbon dioxide emitted from fossil-fuel power plants."

Flag What is the relationship between carbon dioxide and earth's temperature? Answer by Jyushchyshyn Confidence votes 22Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas; that is it is a gas that allows short wavelengths from the sun to pass through to the Earth's surface, but blocks some of the longer wave radiation going from Earth to space. The law of conservation of energy says that by blocking this outgoing radiation, the Earth must be warmer than it would otherwise be. In fact, if the Earth had no CO2, its temperature would be below freezing. Water vapor would not help, because it would be frozen solid. Other factors other than CO2 affect the Earth's temperature. Solar activity has an effect, but it has not shown a trend over the past thirty years which could explain the warming. 1998 was a very warm year because of an el Niño which was far stronger than any subsequent el Niño. The reason why the records set in 1998 have yet to be decisively beaten is because the CO2 added since then has barely matched the effects of the 1998 el Niño."

But it's important to distinguish between the natural greenhouse effect and potential human impacts on it (the 'anthropogenic' greenhouse effect). Remember that, in the absence of the natural greenhouse effect, global temperatures would be too low to sustain life as we know it. The naturally-occurring greenhouse effect is due to the fact that a number of gases in the atmosphere absorb infra-red radiation (heat) emitted from the Earth's surface: instead of being radiated into space, this heat warms the atmosphere. These gases include water vapour, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2 O), and ozone (O 3) . Methane makes up just 0.00017% of the Earth's atmosphere. However, it is an important greenhouse gas, with a much greater warming potential than CO2. Methane is generated through anaerobic decay of organic material The amount of methane in the atmosphere is the result of a balance between production on the surface and destruction in the atmosphere.

Sometimes it's just the energy itself we want (as in heating our homes).

The ‘greenhouse effect’ is an atmospheric heating phenomenon in which the Earth experiences rise in temperature because certain gases (water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and methane) in the atmosphere allow incoming sunlight to pass through but trap heat radiated from the earth’s surface. If these gases wouldn’t trap heat in the atmosphere, the temperature of the earth would be about 33 degrees centigrade colder on average. Because how these gases warm our planet, they are called as greenhouse gases and the effect they create in the atmosphere is called as greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect, although it sounds scary, is perfectly natural and normal. It is simply the name given to the process whereby certain naturally occurring gases in the Earth’s atmosphere retain some of the thermal radiation that reaches Earth from the sun. The main gases that are termed ‘greenhouse’ gases (GHG’s) are: Ozone, Carbon dioxide, Nitrous oxide, Water vapor and Methane. All of these are naturally occurring. When the thermal radiation (or heat) arrives from the sun, some of it is bounced from the surface of the Earth by the ozone layer (which is the reason we can safely walk out in the sun, is this prevents the most dangerous radiation from the sun getting through the atmosphere), leaving only some heat to make it through to heat the Earth. This heat then rises back through the atmosphere, but most of it gets trapped by the greenhouse gases, which causes it to remain in the Earth’s atmosphere."

The current public view of CO2 is that of a villain causing practically everything that is wrong on our planet, from prostitution to tsunamis, from schizophrenia to earthquakes, from overheating to overcooling, from floods to droughts and so on. Since well over one thousand peer reviewed papers say so, since all of the major television and newspapers outlets say so, since lot of national academies say so, surely it must be so? Surely, to accuse someone of mass murder and even genocide one wouldexpect overwhelming evidence against the CO2 molecule; not by thousands of unreliable witnesses that never met or saw the murderer, but by the hard forensic data, in this case experimental data. Since the standard definition of excellence in the climate sciences is ‘the less you know about CO2 and the calibrated thermometer, the more eminent scientist you are’, I will humbly present to you some basic facts about CO2 that all those “ignorant specialist” in respiratory mechanisms and carbon chemistry are using in their daily jobs of pushing the frontiers of science forward, not backwards. This report is about toxicity of CO2 and I will answer that infamous $64,000 question, or the way that the things are going at the moment, $64 trillion question: At what concentration does CO2 become toxic to humans? So let me start with the first question raised in the title of this report. You see, there is no difference between the engine that runs the human body and the combustion engine – they both run on the molecules that are based on the element called carbon with the symbol C, they both need the O2 molecules to break the fuel down to smaller chunks, or rather oxidise the fuel/food that is needed for the engine to run, and they both produce CO2 as a product of that oxidation process."

"text": "\"Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, meaning that it is among a family of gases including water vapor, ozone, and nitrous oxide. Together, these gases make the Earth habitable, by increasing heat efficiency and keeping the temperature of the planet stable. The issue with carbon dioxide in particular is that there is currently more of it in the atmosphere than there should be, and it is starting to trap too much heat as a result. The extra heat trapped by the growing number of greenhouse gases is leading to a phenomenon called global warming. Many things generate carbon dioxide naturally, including respiration, volcanic eruptions, and fires. In a natural cycle, much of this compound is taken up by trees, who use it for energy, producing oxygen as a byproduct. Carbon dioxide is actually a very important greenhouse gas, and an important part of the process that makes Earth so pleasant to live on. The amount being generated, however, started to outstrip the Earth's abilities to handle it in the 20th century. As a result, a steady rise in the atmospheric gas was observed, and scientists also began to link it with a slow creep in global temperatures. The difference of only a few degrees in annual average temperatures has the potential to be devastating, and many nations are beginning to be concerned about carbon dioxide."

Let's take a look at two descriptions of the greenhouse effect; the first is simpler than the second. You can decide which is most suitable for your students. A Simple Explanation of the Greenhouse Effect Visible light from the Sun arrives at the top of Earth's atmosphere. As the light enters the atmosphere, some of it is scattered by air molecules or reflected from white clouds back into space. Since air is mostly transparent to visible light, much of the light that isn't reflected back into space goes through the atmosphere to Earth's surface. Some of the light that makes it to the surface is also reflected back into space (especially if the surface is bright, as is the case when snow or ice covers the ground). However, since the average albedo of Earth's surface is around 15%, most of the light that makes it to the surfaces is absorbed, warming our planet."

"text": "\"The Greenhouse Effect & Greenhouse Gases The Greenhouse Effect How does the greenhouse effect work? As is the case with anything involving Earth's atmosphere, the full story is complicated. However, the basic idea is fairly straightforward. Let's take a look at two descriptions of the greenhouse effect; the first is simpler than the second. You can decide which is most suitable for your students. A Simple Explanation of the Greenhouse Effect Visible light from the Sun arrives at the top of Earth's atmosphere. As the light enters the atmosphere, some of it is scattered by air molecules or reflected from white clouds back into space. Since air is mostly transparent to visible light, much of the light that isn't reflected back into space goes through the atmosphere to Earth's surface. Some of the light that makes it to the surface is also reflected back into space (especially if the surface is bright, as is the case when snow or ice covers the ground). However, since the average albedo of Earth's surface is around 15%, most of the light that makes it to the surfaces is absorbed, warming our planet."

"text": "\"The Last Time CO2 Was This High, Humans Didn’t Exist By Andrew Freedman Published: May 3rd, 2013 , Last Updated: May 2nd, 2013The last time there was this much carbon dioxide (CO2) in the Earth's atmosphere, modern humans didn't exist. Megatoothed sharks prowled the oceans, the world's seas were up to 100 feet higher than they are today, and the global average surface temperature was up to 11°F warmer than it is now. As we near the record for the highest CO2 concentration in human history — 400 parts per million — climate scientists worry about where we were then, and where we're rapidly headed now. According to data gathered at the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii, the 400 ppm mark may briefly be exceeded this month, when CO2 typically hits a seasonal peak in the Northern Hemisphere, although it is more likely to take a couple more years until it stays above that threshold, according to Ralph Keeling, a researcher at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography. CO2 levels are far higher now than they have been for anytime during the past 800,000 years. Click image to enlarge. Credit: Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Keeling is the son of Charles David Keeling, who began the CO2 observations at Mauna Loa in 1958 and for whom the iconic “ Keeling Curve ” is named. Carbon dioxide is the most important long-lived global warming gas, and once it is emitted by burning fossil fuels such as coal and oil, a single CO2 molecule can remain in the atmosphere for hundreds of years. Global CO2 emissions reached a record high of 35.6 billion tonnes in 2012, up 2.6 percent from 2011."

One of the main basic building blocks of life is oxygen, and it is essential in many of the processes that keep the Earth operating as we know it. It is an important element to life on Earth. What is Oxygen? Oxygen is everywhere, but at its most basic, it is an element in the form of gas that makes up the Earth’s atmosphere and natural formations. Some of the basic facts about oxygen are: It is the 8 th element on the periodic table, and represented by the symbol O. It is nonmetallic and can be combined with most other elements to form more complex compounds. It is the third most often found element in all of the universe (hydrogen and helium are actually the first two). It is the element most common to the Earth’s crust. It is both colorless and gasless. It makes up almost 65% of the human body when considered by mass."

Other molecules common in the atmosphere don't have such strong absorption at the wavelengths given off by thermal radiation. If you are asking why that is, I'm afraid I can't give you a very detailed answer, except to say that the absorption spectra of molecules (and atoms) is governed by quantum mechanics.

Without carbon dioxide and other non-condensing greenhouse gases, water vapor and clouds would be … more (Phys Org.com) -- Water vapor and clouds are the major contributors to Earth's greenhouse effect, but a new atmosphere-ocean climate modeling study shows that the planet's temperature ultimately depends on the atmospheric level of carbon dioxide. The study, conducted by Andrew Lacis and colleagues at NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) in New York, examined the nature of Earth's greenhouse effect and clarified the role that greenhouse gases and clouds play in absorbing outgoing infrared radiation. Notably, the team identified non-condensing greenhouse gases -- such as carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone, and chlorofluorocarbons -- as providing the core support for the terrestrial greenhouse effect. Without non-condensing greenhouse gases, water vapor and clouds would be unable to provide the feedback mechanisms that amplify the greenhouse effect. The study's results will be published Friday, Oct. 15 in Science. A companion study led by GISS co-author Gavin Schmidt that has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Geophysical Research shows that carbon dioxide accounts for about 20 percent of the greenhouse effect, water vapor and clouds together account for 75 percent, and minor gases and aerosols make up the remaining five percent. However, it is the 25 percent non-condensing greenhouse gas component, which includes carbon dioxide, that is the key factor in sustaining Earth's greenhouse effect. By this accounting, carbon dioxide is responsible for 80 percent of the radiative forcing that sustains the Earth's greenhouse effect. The climate forcing experiment described in Science was simple in design and concept -- all of the non-condensing greenhouse gases and aerosols were zeroed out, and the global climate model was run forward in time to see what would happen to the greenhouse effect."

This has caused many in the church to reevaluate the biblical creation account, specifically the meaning of the word “day” in Genesis 1. With our focus on one particular form of radiometric dating—carbon dating—we will see that carbon dating strongly supports a young earth. Note that, contrary to a popular misconception, carbon dating is not used to date rocks at millions of years old. Basics Before we get into the details of how radiometric dating methods are used, we need to review some preliminary concepts from chemistry. Recall that atoms are the basic building blocks of matter. Atoms are made up of much smaller particles called protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons make up the center (nucleus) of the atom, and electrons form shells around the nucleus."

If you have questions about carbon monoxide, contact your local gas utility, a qualified heating contractor, or the Extension Services office listed in the white pages of your phone book. What is carbon monoxide and who is at risk? Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless deadly gas. Because you can't see, taste, or smell it, carbon monoxide can kill you before you know it's there. Everyone is at risk for carbon monoxide poisoning. Experts believe, however, that individuals with greater oxygen requirements such as unborn babies, infants, children, senior citizens, and people with coronary or respiratory problems are at greater risk. Why is carbon monoxide so dangerous? The great danger of carbon monoxide is its attraction to hemoglobin in the bloodstream. When breathed in, carbon monoxide replaces the oxygen which cells need to function."

Carbon monoxide is produced when a hydrocarbon fuel is not combusted completely. Natural gas is about 96% methane with a small amount of ethane mixed in. It is a colorless and odorless gas. An odorant is added to it to give a garlic like smell to it so you can detect leakage.

"text": "If you hear your carbon monoxide detector beeping, most experts would recommend that you immediately call emergency services and get out of your home. Carbon monoxide can't be seen and has no recognizable smell, so it can sneak up on people and catch them unaware. The detector has a sensor in it that can alert you to the possible presence of carbon monoxide, and you should generally trust it. The one exception is if it you only hear your carbon monoxide detector beeping every minute or two, which could be a low-battery warning signal. In those cases, you should immediately replace the battery, and if there is no battery present, you should call emergency services just to be safe and exit your residence. One other possible cause of a carbon monoxide detector beeping is a faulty or defective detector. Carbon monoxide detectors don’t last forever, and after a while, the detector inside will start to fail. When this happens, there is the potential for false alarms. Any time a carbon monoxide detector is beeping, it is generally a good idea to take emergency precautions, but if authorities find that there is no carbon monoxide in your home, you should replace your detector. When people get exposed to carbon monoxide, they usually aren’t able to recognize any problems."

A physician and father came home from a night shift at County Medical Center to find everyone inside dead, his daughter, her babysitter, his parents and their friends --- six unsuspecting victims, of the silent killer, Carbon Monoxide. It was unusual to have five consecutive days in early May with temperatures nearing 90 degrees F. To make everyone comfortable, the father turned on the central air conditioner… without turning off the furnace. In addition, the air conditioner was set to a lower temperature than the furnace. As the air conditioner cooled the house, the furnace heated it simultaneously. Furthermore, the furnace and air conditioner were located in a room no larger than a utility closet, and the fresh air vent to the outside was closed. The combination of the above created a negative pressure condition within the house and caused the deadly carbon monoxide fumes to back-draft into the utility closet. The carbon monoxide detector emitted its warnings. Thr Carbon Monoxide Detector had been deactivated… He thought the CO detector was malfunctioning or too sensitive."

Question: Can't Locate the Source of a Terrible Smell in My Home By Charles [1 Post]February 22, 2010We have a very foul dead animal odor in our home. The only time this odor is present is after my wife has used a hair dryer. We know it is not the dryer itself, because it does not smell if used outside our home, ie. vacation. The smell seems to appear after using the dryer for a while and it does not smell in the bathroom where it is being used. It seems to be drawn in from another room."

Gas flames are normally blue but sometimes they burn red or yellow. Blue Flame vs Yellow Gas Flame Colour A blue gas stove flame indicates complete combustion, meaning you aren't wasting gas and money. Red or yellow gas flames may be the sign of incomplete combustion, wasted gas and a serious safety hazard. With hydrocarbon flames, such as gas, the amount of oxygen supplied with the gas determines the rate of combustion, flame colour and temperature.

"text": "Carbon Monoxide Dr Mike Thompson Winchester College, UKMolecule of the Month - November 2005Also available: Chime Enhanced, VRML and JMol versions. Carbon monoxide is a toxic, colourless and odourless gas. It has been invaluable in helping chemists to extract metals from their ores. However, it must be said that its physical properties make it potentially very dangerous. Making Carbon Monoxide Carbon and oxygen can combine to form two gases. When combustion of carbon is complete, i.e. in the presence of plenty of air, the product is mainly carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). Sources of carbon include; coal, coke, charcoal. When combustion of carbon is incomplete, i.e. there is a limited supply of air, only half as much oxygen adds to the carbon, and instead you form carbon monoxide (CO). Carbon monoxide is also formed as a pollutant when hydrocarbon fuels (natural gas, petrol, diesel) are burned. The relative amount of CO produced depends on the efficiency of combustion."

High levels of carbon monoxide are poisonous to humans and, unfortunately, it cannot be detected by humans as it has no taste or smell and cannot be seen. The natural concentration of carbon monoxide in air is around 0.2 parts per million (ppm), and that amount is not harmful to humans. Natural sources of carbon monoxide include volcanoes and bushfires. The main sources of additional carbon monoxide are motor vehicle exhaust and some industrial activities, such as making steel. Tobacco smoke is one of the main indoor sources of carbon monoxide. How does carbon monoxide affect human health? Carbon monoxide affects healthy and unhealthy people. Increased levels of carbon monoxide reduce the amount of oxygen carried by haemoglobin around the body in red blood cells."

Carbon monoxide is incredibly dangerous; it can kill you quickly and with almost no warning, but you can't see, taste or smell it. The Gas Safe Register - previously known as CORGI - is the UK's official gas safety body. As such any boiler engineer you use should be on the Gas Safe Register. You should only allow boiler engineers to work on your heating systems if they have an official Gas Safe Register membership card. If your engineer still has a CORGI card after this date, they are not registered, and as a result will not be able to carry out gas work legally. When checking your engineer's card from now on, look for the yellow Gas Safe Register triangle and not the orange CORGI registration badge."

"text": "Here are the most common problems that can occur with an oil heating system. Fumes If you smell oil, it generally means your system requires maintenance. The fumes can be dangerous and may signal a crack or misalignment in your oil burner. When an oil burner ignites, it pressurizes the combustion chamber for a few seconds. The smoke from the unburned oil can move into the surrounding fresh air chamber–the heat exchanger—that then circulates into the house. If there is a crack or a hole in the heat exchanger, you will smell oil fumes or a sooty wall around a heating vent is another sign of internal problems with your system that need repair. Fumes you cannot smell like carbon monoxide are even more dangerous. Carbon monoxide (CO) is a by-product of combustion, present whenever fuel is burned and you cannot smell the fumes. Besides furnaces, any gas-fueled appliance produces it—clothes dryers, ovens, grills, fireplaces, etc. If your home is properly vented, CO will be safely directed outside."

If you plan to use a ventless fireplace to save money, make sure you consider the safety concerns. Some service providers say unvented fireplaces burn more efficiently than their vented gas-powered counterparts and cost less to install. Other providers and organizations contend ventless fireplaces are unsafe or otherwise undesirable. The National Association of Certified Home Inspectors warns that these fireplaces necessarily vent unburned combustion products — including carbon monoxide — directly into the living space. Although most vent-free manufacturers install an oxygen-detection sensor designed to automatically shut the fireplace down if oxygen levels in the home become too low, your family's health and safety are riding on that sensor working. NACHI recommends having the unit inspected before use.

It's important to understand what risks you may be facing when you choose gas or propane heat for your home. Leaks cause fires and carbon monoxide poisoning Leaks from natural gas or propane are common but don’t always make the news. According to data from the U. S. government, there is a major incident/fire/explosion involving either natural gas or propane leaks at least every other day. These incidents result in millions of dollars in damages, thousands of injuries and dozens of deaths per year. Carbon monoxide poisoning from natural gas or propane use are much worse, averaging more than 15 deaths per month, and that’s just from appliances that have fixed gas piping.

It's one of the most prevalent causes of death due to poisoning in America. Any time you burn something—like gasoline, natural gas, wood, oil, propane, or charcoal—carbon monoxide is released into the air. In outdoor spaces, this usually isn't a health hazard because there is enough area for the CO to dissipate, so particles never amount to a toxic level.

David De Lossy/ Getty Images That sulfuric, rotten egg odor that signals a natural gas leak isn't an ordinary component of the carbon-hydrogen compound. Because of the potential danger associated with natural gas leaks, suppliers add the noxious scent to natural gas as an olfactory warning that the harmful vapors are loose in the air. This precautionary measure indicates the inherent hazards of natural gas that can, at the right levels, kill you. That said, natural gas is repeatedly touted as one of the safest and cleanest-burning fossil fuel sources. More than 65 million homes in the United States use it to power their gas stoves, water heaters and other essential appliances [source: Safe Gas Indiana ]. When correctly burned, natural gas produces mostly water vapor and carbon dioxide and far fewer greenhouse emissions than wood, coal and oil [source: Alberta Energy ]. Natural gas has become a widespread energy source because it's highly combustible, which means that it can produce large amounts of heat when you burn small amounts. Consequently, a natural gas leak can increase the risk of fire and explosion since it spreads quickly and combusts easily. An electrical spark or fire source can set this off if you have a leak in your house."

Melatonin is an extremely important hormone which serves as the major modulator of the daily biorhythms of the body. The hormone is also responsible for the modulation of the annual biorhythms. Properties of Melatonin Melatonin has certain unique properties which make it different from the other hormones secreted in the body. The hormones have the ability to pass through any blood barriers of the body. It is melatonin that remains at the center of all the physiological functions. The hormone is responsible for all the complex interactions which occur between the mind and the body. Melatonin is also affected by the environment and therefore the complex interactions keep changing as our environment changes.

Cancer, for instance, is a lifestyle disease which has an ever increasing incidence rate. Though cancer is still not fully curable, if it is detected early and treated at an early stage, it can be cured. It is therefore important to get screened as soon as you begin to experience any symptoms even remotely associated with cancer. Brain cancer is perhaps one of the most serious kinds of cancers. This is because the cancer that spreads in the brain not only affects the brain but can also have adverse effects on other parts of the body. If the cancerous growths begin to put pressure on certain nerves, the corresponding organs are affected. Brain Cancer Testing The first part of brain cancer testing is known as screening. People who are symptom free and have not yet been diagnosed with any diseases are called in for a screening test first. The screening test for brain cancer is expensive when compared to the other tests for cancer."

Print Tumor Marker Overview Tumor markers are soluble glycoproteins that are found in the blood, urine, or tissues of patients with certain types of cancer. They are typically produced by tumor cells, but in some cases they may be produced by the body in response to malignancy or to certain benign conditions. Tumor markers are not elevated in all cancer patients, particularly patients with early-stage cancer. The various tumor markers differ in their usefulness for screening, diagnosis, prognosis, assessing therapeutic response, and detecting recurrence. [ 1]Normalization of tumor marker values may indicate cure despite radiographic evidence of persistent disease. In this situation, residual tumor is frequently nonviable. Sometimes, tumor marker values may rise after effective treatment (due to cell lysis), but the increase may not portend treatment failure. A consistent increase in a tumor marker value, combined with lack of clinical improvement, may indicate treatment failure. Residual elevation after definitive treatment usually indicates persistent disease. Many new tumor markers have been discovered since the development of monoclonal antibodies, and most tumor markers are now detected with them."

This is a noninvasive technique where a certain area of the body is viewed to examine the internal organs of the body. This is done by exposing a certain body part to sound waves of high frequency, and therefore, getting a live image of the internal organs. Ultrasounds don’t use the ionizing rays that are used in X-rays. The images are relayed live and show the structure, movement, as well as blood flow to the particular area of the body. A transvaginal ultrasound is one of three kinds of ultrasounds performed; the other two are rectal (in the case of men) and abdominal. Reasons A transvaginal ultrasound is typically done to observe the inner lining of the uterus (the endometrial wall). It gauges its thinness and thickness, and gives a view of the ovaries. It is also used to examine the muscular uterus walls, which are known as the myometrium. These procedures are used to detect abnormalities of the uterus, scars, fibroids, polyps on the endometrial walls, as well as cancer."

A Gallium scan is a medical diagnostic imaging procedure that is used to detect certain infections and cancers. A Gallium scan is a test that uses radioactive material to look for infections in an individual's body. It is a kind of nuclear medicine exam. A nuclear medicine exam makes use of a special camera that helps take images of certain precise tissues of the body. This is possible because of the use of a radioactive tracer which makes them visible. Keep in mind that different radioactive compounds will be used as a tracer depending on the type of tissue that is to be scanned. Reasons Why It is Conducted A Gallium scan may be recommended for the following reasons. To detect an abscess or infections, particularly in the bones. To detect certain types of cancers like lymphomas."

Paracentesis is a procedure that involves the removal of accumulated fluid in the belly. This is known as peritoneal fluid and the buildup of fluid is referred to as ascites. This may be caused due to inflammation, infection, injury, cancer or cirrhosis. The fluid is extracted from the belly by inserting a thin long needle. The fluid is then analyzed in a laboratory. This procedure may also be conducted to alleviate pressure in the belly, especially in individuals with cirrhosis or cancer. Reasons Abdominal paracentesis is done to determine the cause of fluid accumulation in the belly. Infections within the peritoneal fluid may also be diagnosed through this method. Specific cancers such as liver cancer may even be diagnosed."

A carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) test is a blood test used to help diagnose and manage certain types of cancers. The CEA test is used especially for cancers of the large intestine and rectum. You doctor can also use the test results to help determine if a cancer treatment is working. An antigen is a substance that’s made by cancerous tumor cells. Sometimes antigens are released into the bloodstream. The CEA test measures the amount of CEA in the blood. A high amount of CEA in your body after a cancer treatment or surgery suggests the cancer is not gone. It may also mean that the cancer has spread to other parts of your body. Smoking can increase the amount of CEA in your body even in the absence of cancer."

"text": "Blood Marker Tests Save as Favorite Sign in to receive recommendations ( Learn more)Your doctor may order blood tests for cancer/tumor markers to detect cancer activity in the body. Proteins and circulating tumor cells are two types of markers that can be measured. A cancer tumor often produces a specific protein in the blood that serves as a marker for the cancer. Circulating tumor cells are cells that break off from the cancer and move into the blood stream. Protein markers and circulating tumor cells can be measured with simple blood tests. Blood marker tests may be done before treatment, to help diagnose the breast cancer and determine whether it's moved to other parts of the body; during treatment, to assess whether the cancer is responding; and after treatment, to see if the cancer has come back (recurrence). Examples of markers your doctor may test for include: CA 15.3: used to find breast and ovarian cancers TRU-QUANT and CA 27.29: may mean that breast cancer is present CA125: may signal ovarian cancer, ovarian cancer recurrence, and breast cancer recurrence CEA (carcinoembryonic antigen): a marker for the presence of colon, lung, and liver cancers. This marker may be used to determine if the breast cancer has traveled to other areas of the body. Circulating tumor cells: cells that break off from the cancer and move into the blood stream. High circulating tumor cell counts may indicate that the cancer is growing."

There are many different muscles present in the body with different structures suited to their individual uses. Some muscles are extremely small and may never ever be noticed by the individuals. Specialized muscles work in specific organs that need unique muscles to aid their functioning. The heart muscles are a great example of muscles that are uniquely developed for their specific application. What is a Muscle Test? The term muscle test is a rather vague term used to define many different medical and non medical tests. Besides this one could also have a manual muscle test, muscle labeling test, muscle self test, body muscle test, muscle tissue test and so on conducted. A muscle test is one that is used to check various parameters of the muscle or muscles in question. An online muscle test would include muscle identification test, muscle labeling test, muscle name test, and similar test that would check your knowledge on the muscles of your body."

Blood tests can also be used to monitor a person's response to cancer treatments and detect tumor recurrence. Doctors look for the presence of cancer cells in the blood or tumor markers, which are substances made by a cancerous tumor. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Blood Tests to Screen for Cancer Blood tests can be used to screen healthy people for cancer. Prostate-specific antigen is sometimes used for prostate cancer screening, but PSA levels can be high for reasons other than cancer. The American Society of Clinical Oncology recommends that PSA screening should only be done in men expected to live longer than 10 years after discussing risks and benefits with their doctors. Alpha-fetoprotein is a marker used to screen for liver cancer in people with a high risk of developing the disease. Organizations differ on their recommendations for its use because of the test's limited sensitivity. The National Academy of Clinical Biochemistry USA recommends AFP testing combined with ultrasound imaging."

Here, we focus on the stomach acid test with additional inputs on the other tests your doctor may recommend you to go in for, if you have some stomach problems. Stomach Acid Test The stomach acid test also known as the Gastric acid secretion test is used to measure the amounts and levels of acidity in the stomach's contents. This test involves injecting gastrin under your skin after which an analysis is done of the stomach contents. There is another test wherein hypoglycemia is induced with the help of insulin. Once the blood sugar decreases, gastrin is released and the doctor is able to remove and analyze your stomach contents. You will be expected to stay hungry for at least 4 to 5 hours prior to the test. This test is beneficial for a number of reasons, such as to find out if anti-ulcer medication works well, to find out the cause of ulcers, and to know if waste matter from the small intestine are being released into the stomach. If the outcome of the stomach acid test is normal then the p H will be about 1.5 to 3.5 while the stomach fluids will have a volume of 20 to 100ml. Interpretation of Test Results These normal ranges may vary slightly from laboratory to laboratory."

One of the first questions you may have is “What is my prognosis?” or “Is my cancer curable?” It’s important to remember that cancer survival statistics are complex and can be confusing. These numbers are based on large groups of people with cancer and cannot predict exactly how well you or any one person will do. No two people diagnosed with colon cancer are exactly alike. Your doctor will do the best they can to answer your questions based on the information they have about your cancer. But prognosis and survival statistics are meant to be used as a guideline.

Your doctor will ask you about any symptoms you have and may do a physical exam. Based on this information, your doctor may refer you to a specialist or order tests to check for colorectal cancer or other health problems. The process of diagnosis may seem long and frustrating. It’s normal to worry, but try to remember that other health conditions can cause similar symptoms as colorectal cancer. It’s important for the healthcare team to rule out other reasons for a health problem before making a diagnosis of colorectal cancer. The following tests are commonly used to rule out or diagnose colorectal cancer. Many of the same tests used to diagnose cancer are used to find out the stage, which is how far the cancer has progressed. Your doctor may also order other tests to check your general health and to help plan your treatment. Health history and physical exam Your health history is a record of your symptoms, risk factors and all the medical events and problems you have had in the past."

A sample of the infected skin is scraped out lightly and placed on a slide that has KOH solution. The slide is subsequently heated so that the skin cells are dissolved by the solution, but the fungus cells prevail. These cells can be examined with a microscope and sometimes with the helps of color stains that make the fungus more visible. Reason for KOH Test A KOH test for fungus is done if you have itchy and red skin; scaly blisters and bumps; or, any other skin-related fungal infection. Sometimes, the doctor might be able to determine if you have a skin infection or not, by just looking at the fungal infection and the KOH test for fungus may not be necessary. If a fungal infection is detected through a KOH test, then you may need to do other tests to find out the cause of the skin problem. Vaginal Wet Mount Fungus in the vagina is often detected through a vaginal wet mount. Fungus in the vagina might cause inflammation of the vagina, or vaginitis. The latter is generally caused by a reaction to vaginal cosmetic products like douche, oils, soaps, or jellies."

"text": "\"Tumor Markers Tumor Markers Definition Tumor markers are measurable biochemicals that are associated with a malignancy. They areeither produced by tumor cells (tumor-derived) or by the body in response to tumor cells (tumor-associated). They are typically substances that are released into the circulation and thusmeasured in the blood. There are a few exceptions to this, such as tissue-bound receptors thatmust be measured in a biopsy from the solid tumor or proteins that are secreted into the urine. Purpose Though tumor markers are rarely specific enough to be used alone to diagnose cancer, they do have a number of clinical uses. They can be used to stage cancer, to indicate a prognosis, to monitor treatment, or in follow-up to watch for cancer recurrence. Changes in some tumormarkers have been sensitive enough to be used as targets in clinical trials. When used fordiagnosis, tumor markers are used in conjunction with other clinical parameters such as biopsyand radiological findings. Although there are a multitude of tumor markers, very few of them havefound their way into clinical practice because of their lack of specificity. However, some of thesenon-specific markers have found a place in monitoring cancer treatment rather than in diagnosis."

This is a potentially dangerous condition and is a result of the liver not functioning properly or because of a crucial enzyme deficiency. The test is done via a blood sample. Usually, an ammonia blood level test hepatic encephalopathy can indicate hepatic encephalopathy or liver cirrhosis. The reason for this is that ammonia is a toxic substance to the human body and because of this reason it is usually converted to urea in the liver for safe excretion. This is also a reason to perform an ammonia blood level test to check the urea cycle efficiency. The urea cycle is a chemical process that goes on in the liver where ammonia is converted into urea with addition of high energy ATP molecules. Ammonia is created in the body from the action of mitochondria in every cell in our body. Why Is it Conducted? The blood ammonia test is done to primarily judge liver function."

The test is usually performed to check for elevated blood glucose levels which can be an indication of diabetes or insulin inhibition. The carbohydrates that make a larger portion of the food are broken down into glucose. For most of the cells in the body, glucose makes for the major source of energy. The glucose in the blood is controlled by a hormone called insulin. However, if a person consumes too much carbohydrates or simple sugars, the amount of glucose in the blood can rise beyond the amount that insulin can control. In another case, there may be some problems with the production of insulin because of which glucose in the blood stream cannot be controlled. Types of Serum Glucose Testing There are two types of serum glucose testing. One is the fasting serum glucose test in which the patient should not have eaten for at least 6-8 hours before the test, and the other test can be performed randomly at any given time. Unlike the fasting test, which establishes the glucose level in the blood without eating anything, the random test can be done at any time of the day."

"text": "The cardiac muscle is the heart, responsible for pumping blood throughout the body. It is made up of cardiac muscle and is the only place in the body where such muscle is found. All the other muscles in the body are composed of either skeletal muscle or smooth muscle. The most muscular part of the heart is its middle layer, called the myocardium, which is mainly responsible for its contractions. Cardiac muscle is unique because it is striated, like skeletal muscle, yet involuntary, like smooth muscle. Skeletal muscle controls the body's movement and is generally under conscious, or voluntary, control. The internal organs, on the other hand, with the exception of the heart, are made of smooth muscle, which works without conscious effort. Striated muscle is arranged in protein filaments known as sarcomeres that are responsible for muscular contraction. Sarcomeres give muscles a striated, or striped, appearance. The striations in the cardiac muscle, unlike those in skeletal muscles, are branched, creating a more tenacious structure."

"text": "MRI Heart (Cardiac MRI)Health professional information Authors: Dr Brett Lorraine*Dr Charles Lott *What is a cardiac MRI? Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses a high-strength magnet and radio waves to scan the body and produce images or pictures. MRI does not use ionising radiation, which is required for many other types of imaging, and is not known to have any long-term harmful effects. Cardiac MRI is imaging relating to the heart and how it is working. Most people are suited to MRI scanning, although there are some restrictions due to the strength of the magnet and its possible effects on devices or implants, such as pacemakers. The MRI machine is shaped like a small tunnel, and the bed on which you lie will move you inside the tunnel where the images are being taken. Occasionally, MRI scanning cannot be carried out if you are uncomfortable in enclosed spaces (claustrophobia). Some cardiac MRIs might involve the injection of a contrast medium (see gadolinium contrast medium) during the scan. The contrast medium highlights the blood vessels on the images to clearly show their structure and how they are working, and can also assist in providing information related to tissue blood supply, inflammation and scarring. There are several different types of cardiac MRI scans including: Cardiac viability (perfusion and delay) MRI – This involves the injection of a contrast medium into a vein during the scan."

In atherosclerosis, the walls of elastic arteries become less compliant (stiffer). What effect does reduced compliance have on the pressure reservoir function of arteries? Due to atherosclerosis, less energy is stored in the less-compliant elastic arteries during systole; thus, the heart must pump harder to maintain the same rate of blood flow.

Cardiac muscle is one of three major types of muscle, the others being skeletal and smooth muscle. These three types of muscle all form in a process known as myogenesis. The cells that comprise cardiac muscle, called cardiomyocytes or myocardiocytes, only contain one, unique nucleus. Coordinated contractions of cardiac muscle cells in the heart propel blood out of the atria and ventricles to the blood vessels of the left/body/systemic and right/lungs/pulmonary circulatory systems.

The word cardiac is an adjective specific to the heart, for example cardiac arrest is a heart attack. Cardiac muscle is special because it has large cells with a single nucleus unlike skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle cells are branched with intercalated discs connecting them. These muscles are involuntary, it means they contract without being told to, they are controlled by the autonomic nervous system which is important otherwise you would need to consciously tell your heart to beat.

"text": "January, 2013Blood Flow: How The Body Controls It So It Can Survive By Dr. Howard Glicksman All the cells in the body consist of matter. They each need oxygen, water, glucose and other chemicals to live, grow and work properly. The respiratory system brings in oxygen and the gastrointestinal system brings in water, glucose and the other atoms and molecules the body needs to live. These important chemicals are put into the bloodstream so they can be transported to the cells in the tissues. However, like all matter, blood has mass and therefore is subject to the laws of nature. It is subject to inertia, the force that keeps an object still if it is at rest. The more mass an object has the more energy is needed to move it or change its speed. The heart is a muscular organ that uses energy to pump the blood with enough pressure throughout the body so you can live and stay active. Blood is also subject to gravity, the force that makes an object fall to the ground. The higher something is above the heart, the more energy is needed to pump blood to it."

Under the hood, the TS-470 offers high performance, powered by a dual-core Intel 2.6GHz processor and 2GB of DDR3 RAM (which can be expanded up to 16GB). Four Gigabit LAN ports (two single onboard and one dual-port gigabit Ethernet PCI-Express card) allow for maximum bandwidth efficiency; additionally, the dual-port NIC can be swapped out with a 10Gb E adapter, greatly increasing IOPS throughput. With a mind toward scalability, the TS-470 offers a centralized storage solution for applications and environments with ever-growing storage needs, while also providing a full range of management applications and features through the QTS 4.0 operating system. Emphasis on data security, backup and retrieval, and antivirus also make the TS-470 an ideal choice for those who seek worry-free storage and safeguarding of increasing amounts of data. By installing additional QNAP RAID expansion enclosures, the TS-470 can achieve a total raw storage capacity of 144TB divided over 36 HDDs. This particular design makes the TS-470 ideal for applications with increasing storage demands, particularly multimedia editing and archiving, security camera footage, or television broadcast recording. Using the QTS Storage Manager application, the administrator has access to a powerful and easy-to-use toolkit for managing storage and enclosure expansion, storage pooling, thin provisioned volumes, and error recovery. Additionally, SSD caching allows for IOPS performance to be boosted greatly when SSDs and HDDs are used in conjunction. The TS-470 offers a suite of integrated apps right out of the box that make it a powerful and efficient provider of several important business services: built-in proxy and web servers, RADIUS server, VPN, print server, and system log collection."

"text": "Abstract Full Text Figures References Supplemental Materials Cited by PDFShow Abbreviations LEARNING OBJECTIVES FOR TEST 1 Section: Choose prevnext After completing this journal-based CME activity, participants will be able to:•. Describe the imaging findings of pulmonary hypertension.•. Discuss the pathophysiologic characteristics of pulmonary hypertension.•. List the advantages of the various imaging modalities used to diagnose pulmonary hypertension. Introduction Section: Choose prevnext Pulmonary hypertension is a progressive disease of the pulmonary arteries and is characterized by abnormally elevated pressure in the pulmonary circulation, a result of extensive vascular proliferation and remodeling ( 1, 2 ). Without treatment, pulmonary hypertension progresses rapidly to right ventricular failure and death, typically within 3 years of the diagnosis. Noninvasive imaging techniques such as cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and electrocardiographically (ECG) gated multidetector computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA) are promising tools that may further our understanding of the anatomic and functional changes that occur in patients with pulmonary hypertension and help define the course of the disease and the prognosis of those affected by it. In this article, we review the definition, classification, and pathophysiologic characteristics of pulmonary hypertension, and we suggest an imaging algorithm to be used for the work-up and follow-up of patients with this disease. We also describe diseases that have typical CTPA and cardiac MR imaging findings and emphasize the role of radiologists in the diagnostic work-up and treatment for these patients. Definitions Section: Choose prevnext Pulmonary hypertension is defined as a resting mean pulmonary arterial pressure of 25 mm Hg or more at catheterization of the right side of the heart, a hemodynamic feature that is shared by all types of pulmonary hypertension in the Dana Point classification system ( Table 1 ). A resting mean pulmonary arterial pressure of 20 mm Hg or less is considered normal, and mean pulmonary arterial pressure of 21–24 mm Hg is considered abnormal; however, further investigations about the clinical course of disease in patients with abnormal arterial pressure are needed ( 3 ). Use of the term pulmonary arterial hypertension is restricted to those with a hemodynamic profile in which high pulmonary pressure is a result of elevated precapillary pulmonary resistance and normal pulmonary venous pressure and is measured as a pulmonary wedge pressure of 15 mm Hg or less, a hemodynamic profile that is shared by groups 3, 4, and 5 in the Dana Point classification system, which was updated during the 4th World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension held in Dana Point, California, in 2008 ( Table 1) ( 3, 4 ). The aim of the Dana Point classification system is to group together different manifestations of the disease that share similar pathophysiologic traits."

Turner syndrome (TS) is a genetic condition found in females only. It affects about 1 in every 2,500 girls. Girls with Turner syndrome are usually shorter than their peers. The good news is that if TS is diagnosed while a girl is still growing, she can be treated with growth hormones to help her grow taller. Early loss of ovarian function means that girls with TS also are infertile (can't become pregnant). However, advances in medical technology, including hormonal therapy and in vitro fertilization, can help women with this condition. Girls with TS are all different.

[ 1]Donors after brain-dead (DBD) ( beating heart cadavers ), however, led to better results as the organs were perfused with oxygenated blood until the point of perfusion and cooling at organ retrieval, and so NHBDs were generally no longer used except in Japan, where brain death was not legally, until very recently, [2] or culturally recognized. [ citation needed]However, a growing discrepancy between demand for organs and their availability from DBDs has led to a re-examination of using non-heart beating donors, donors after circulatory death (DCDs), and many centres are now using such donors to expand their potential pool of organs. Tissue donation ( corneas, heart valves, skin, bone) has always been possible for non-heart beating donors, and many centres now have established programmes for kidney transplants from such donors. A few centres have also moved into DCD liver and lung transplants. Many lessons have been learnt since the 1970s, and results from current DCDs transplants are comparable to transplants from DBDs.

Although there are no American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology guidelines on this topic, the European Society of Cardiology has recently published useful guidelines for the diagnosis and management of pericardial diseases. 1 Our review focuses on the current state of knowledge and the management of the most important pericardial diseases: acute pericarditis, pericardial tamponade, pericardial constriction, and effusive constrictive pericarditis. The Normal Pericardium The pericardium is a relatively avascular fibrous sac that surrounds the heart. It consists of 2 layers: the visceral and parietal pericardium. The visceral pericardium is composed of a single layer of mesothelial cells that are adherent to the cardiac epicardium. 2,3 The parietal pericardium is a fibrous structure that is <2 mm thick and is composed primarily of collagen and a lesser amount of elastin. The 2 layers of the pericardium are separated by a potential space that can normally contain 15 to 35 m L of serous fluid distributed mostly over the atrial-ventricular and interventricular grooves."

Share Email Feedback Sections Overview First Heart Sound Second Heart Sound Third Heart Sound Fourth Heart Sound Opening Snap Ejection Systolic Sounds Murmurs Show All Tables References Overview Cardiovascular diseases continue to be the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. One of the first steps in evaluating the cardiovascular system after detailed history taking is physical examination. Auscultation of the heart forms the core of cardiac physical examination. Despite significant interobserver variability and need for habituation and training, cardiac auscultation provides important initial clues in patient evaluation and serves as a guide for further diagnostic testing. Some of the common mechanisms by which heart sounds are generated include (1) opening or closure of the heart valves, (2) flow of blood through the valve orifice, (3) flow of blood into the ventricular chambers, and (4) rubbing of cardiac surfaces. The main anatomic areas to focus on while initially evaluating heart sounds include the cardiac apex, the aortic area (second intercostal space [ICS] just to the right of the sternum or the third ICS just to the left of sternum), the pulmonary area (second ICS just to the left of sternum) and the tricuspid area (fourth and fifth ICS just to the left of sternum). [ 1] In addition, auscultation of the left axilla, base of the heart, carotid arteries, and interscapular area should be performed to assess for radiation of heart sounds and murmurs. The patient should be examined in the supine position, in the left lateral decubitus position, and while sitting and leaning forward. Each area should be systematically auscultated for S 1, S 2, physiologic splitting, respiratory variations, and any accessory sounds during systole and diastole. [ 2] Whenever possible, auscultation should be accompanied by having the patient perform dynamic maneuvers such as standing, Valsalva, squatting, and hand grip, although these maneuvers are falling out of favor with the use of echocardiography."

"text": "Teenage Health Save Print Share Actions Postural Tachycardia Syndrome Po TSAuthored by Dr Colin Tidy, 28 Feb 2017Postural tachycardia syndrome (Po TS) is an abnormal response of your body when you are upright (usually when standing). It is caused by a problem with the nervous system which controls the autonomic functions in the body. This part of the nervous system is called the autonomic nervous system. The symptoms of Po TS occur when you are upright and are relieved when lying down. These symptoms are associated with an abnormally high and persistent increase in heart rate within ten minutes of standing. Lifestyle adjustments are usually very effective for the treatment of Po TS but some people with Po TS need medication to control the symptoms. The outcome (prognosis) is very good for most people with Po TS but some may have severe long-term difficulties with normal daily activities. In this article What is the autonomic nervous system? What is postural tachycardia syndrome (Po TS)? How common is postural tachycardia syndrome (Po TS)?"

The device is therefore capable of correcting most life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. The ICD is the first-line treatment and prophylactic therapy for patients at risk for sudden cardiac death due to ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia.

Shock Synonyms Circulatory shock Specialty Cardiology, critical care medicine Shock is a life-threatening medical condition of low blood perfusion to tissues resulting in cellular injury and inadequate tissue function. [ 1] [2] The typical signs of shock are low blood pressure, rapid heart rate, signs of poor end-organ perfusion (e.g., low urine output, confusion, or loss of consciousness), and weak pulses. The shock index (SI), defined as heart rate divided by systolic blood pressure, is an accurate diagnostic measure that is more useful than hypotension and tachycardia in isolation. [ 3] Under normal conditions, a number between 0.5 and 0.8 is typically seen. Should that number increase, so does suspicion of an underlying state of shock. Blood pressure alone may not be a reliable sign for shock, as there are times when a person is in circulatory shock but has a stable blood pressure. [ 4]Circulatory shock is not related to the emotional state of shock. Circulatory shock is a life-threatening medical emergency and one of the most common causes of death for critically ill people."

The connotation by the public is an intense emotional reaction to a stressful situation or bad news. The medical definition of shock is much different. Medically, shock is defined as a condition where the tissues in the body don't receive enough oxygen and nutrients to allow the cells to function. This ultimately leads to cellular death, progressing to organ failure, and finally, if untreated, whole body failure and death. How the body works Cells need two things to function: oxygen and glucose. This allows the cells to generate energy and do their specific jobs. Oxygen in the air enters the body through the lungs. Oxygen molecules cross from the air sacs of the lungs into the smallest blood vessels, the capillaries, and are picked up by red blood cells and attached to hemoglobin molecules. The red blood cells are pushed through the body by the actions of the pumping heart and deliver the oxygen to cells in all the tissues of the body."

D. for the SOAP II Investigators *Article Figures/Media28 References 585 Citing Articles Letters Abstract Background Both dopamine and norepinephrine are recommended as first-line vasopressor agents in the treatment of shock. There is a continuing controversy about whether one agent is superior to the other. Methods In this multicenter, randomized trial, we assigned patients with shock to receive either dopamine or norepinephrine as first-line vasopressor therapy to restore and maintain blood pressure. When blood pressure could not be maintained with a dose of 20 μg per kilogram of body weight per minute for dopamine or a dose of 0.19 μg per kilogram per minute for norepinephrine, open-label norepinephrine, epinephrine, or vasopressin could be added. The primary outcome was the rate of death at 28 days after randomization; secondary end points included the number of days without need for organ support and the occurrence of adverse events. Results The trial included 1679 patients, of whom 858 were assigned to dopamine and 821 to norepinephrine. The baseline characteristics of the groups were similar. There was no significant between-group difference in the rate of death at 28 days (52.5% in the dopamine group and 48.5% in the norepinephrine group; odds ratio with dopamine, 1.17; 95% confidence interval, 0.97 to 1.42; P=0.10)."

"text": "\"shock (redirected from Circulatory Shock) Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Legal, Encyclopedia . Shock Definition Shock is a medical emergency in which the organs and tissues of the body are not receiving an adequate flow of blood. This deprives the organs and tissues of oxygen (carried in the blood) andallows the buildup of waste products. Shock can result in serious damage or even death. Description There are three stages of shock: Stage I (also called compensated, or nonprogressive), Stage II (also called decompensated or progressive), and Stage III (also called irreversible). In Stage I of shock, when low blood flow (perfusion) is first detected, a number of systems areactivated in order to maintain/restore perfusion. The result is that the heart beats faster, the bloodvessels throughout the body become slightly smaller in diameter, and the kidney works to retainfluid in the circulatory system. All this serves to maximize blood flow to the most importantorgans and systems in the body. The patient in this stage of shock has very few symptoms, andtreatment can completely halt any progression. In Stage II of shock, these methods of compensation begin to fail."

Pulmonary Edema Definition Pulmonary edema is a condition in which fluid accumulates in the lungs, usually because theheart's left ventricle does not pump adequately. Description The build-up of fluid in the spaces outside the blood vessels of the lungs is called pulmonaryedema. Pulmonary edema is a common complication of heart disorders, and most cases of thecondition are associated with heart failure. Pulmonary edema can be a chronic condition, or it can develop suddenly and quickly become life threatening. The life-threatening type of pulmonaryedema occurs when a large amount of fluid suddenly shifts from the pulmonary blood vesselsinto the lung, due to lung problems, heart attack, trauma, or toxic chemicals. It can also be thefirst sign of coronary heart disease. In heart-related pulmonary edema, the heart's main chamber, the left ventricle, is weakened anddoes not function properly. The ventricle does not completely eject its contents, causing blood to back up and cardiac output to drop. The body responds by increasing blood pressure and fluidvolume to compensate for the reduced cardiac output."

[ 1] It leads to impaired gas exchange and may cause respiratory failure. It is due to either failure of the left ventricle of the heart to remove blood adequately from the pulmonary circulation (cardiogenic pulmonary edema), or an injury to the lung parenchyma or vasculature of the lung (noncardiogenic pulmonary edema). [ 2] Treatment is focused on three aspects: firstly improving respiratory function, secondly, treating the underlying cause, and thirdly avoiding further damage to the lung. Pulmonary edema, especially acute, can lead to fatal respiratory distress or cardiac arrest due to hypoxia. It is a cardinal feature of congestive heart failure. The term edema is from the Greek οἴδημα (oídēma, \"\"swelling\"\"), from οἰδέω (oidéō, \"\"I swell\"\").

A cardiolipin antibodies test looks for a certain kind of antibody in your blood. The antibodies are Ig G (immunoglobulin G), Ig A (immunoglobulin A), and Ig M (immunoglobulin M). They are antibodies that form in response to cardiolipins. Cardiolipin is a phospholipid, or a kind of fat in the blood. The levels of these antibodies are often high in people with abnormal blood clotting, autoimmune diseases like lupus, or repeated miscarriages. Why do I need this test? You may need this test if you often have abnormal blood clotting or abnormal bleeding. If you have had frequent miscarriages, the test might help healthcare providers figure out why."

Causes of Lupus Types and Risk Factors Symptoms of Lupus Diagnosis and Classification Treatments For Lupus Diagnosis of lupus can be problematic. Making a correct diagnosis of lupus requires knowledge and awareness on the part of the doctor and good communication on the part of the patient. An accurate medical history, physical examination and the results of laboratory tests help the doctor consider other diseases that may mimic lupus or determine if you truly have the disease. 10The most useful tests to aid a diagnosis identify certain autoantibodies often present in the blood of people with lupus. For example, the antinuclear antibody (ANA) test is commonly used to look for autoantibodies that react against components of the nucleus of the body's cells. About 98% of people with lupus possess ANA, which can attack the nucleic material of your cells. However, there are a number of other causes of a positive ANA besides lupus, including infections and other autoimmune diseases. Diagnostic tools for lupus include: Medical history Complete physical exam Laboratory tests including complete blood count (CBC), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), urinalysis, blood chemistries, complement levels, ANA and other autoantibody tests Skin biopsy Kidney biopsy.

Citicoline is naturally occurring in the cells of human and animal tissue, in particular the organs. Studies suggest that CDP-choline supplements increase dopamine receptor densities, [1] and suggest that CDP-choline supplementation helps prevent memory impairment resulting from poor environmental conditions. [ 2] Preliminary research has found that citicoline supplements help improve focus and mental energy. [ 3] [4]Citicoline has also been shown to elevate ACTH independently from CRH levels and to amplify the release of other HPA axis hormones such as LH, FSH, GH and TSH in response to hypothalamic releasing factors.

Blood Tests Imaging Tests Biopsy Some Questions to Ask After a Lupus Diagnosis You Are Not Alone Diagnosing Lupus Lupus is an incredibly complex autoimmune disease and diagnosing lupus can take a lot of time and many doctor visits. Patients will often get diagnosed with other “overlap” diseases such as r heumadoid arthritis (RA), Sjogren’s Syndrome, scleroderma, fibromyalgia or Raynaud’s Phenomenon even before a diagnosis of lupus is made. This can be incredibly frustrating for you as well as your doctors. Understanding the process of getting a lupus diagnosis is one of the most common questions we get here as well as a main topic in the discussions on our Facebook page and our other social media platforms. The goal of this blog is to give a clear understanding of the diagnosis process and provide the tools needed to go back to your doctor (or a new doctor) armed with the information you need. Do you think you may have lupus? If you have shown several of the signs for lupus, you and your physician may now take the next step in determining if it is lupus or anotherauto-immune disease. In order to make such a diagnosis, the individual must first show clinical evidence of a multi-symptom disease (i.e., the individual has shown abnormalities in several different organ systems). To learn more about the symptoms that can be specific to lupus, please refer to our blog post on Lupus Symptoms and Signs."

"text": "Get key facts and figures about chronic dry eye Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome (APS)Health Guide More What Is It? Antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) is a condition defined by the presence of abnormal antibodies and a tendency to form blood clots or to have miscarriages. People with antiphospholipid antibody syndrome produce antibodies that interact with certain proteins in the blood. This causes the blood to clot more than normal. The most commonly measured antiphospholipid antibodies include lupus anticoagulant and antibodies to cardiolipin or beta-2 glycoprotein. The blood clots often form in the leg veins. The clots also can form in arteries. The blood clots may occur in any organ, but they tend to favor the lungs, brain, kidneys, heart and skin. There are two types of APS: primary and secondary. People with primary APS do not have any associated condition."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Internal symbiont: mitochondrion has a matrix and membranes, like a free-living proteobacterial cell, from which it may derive. Symbiogenesis, or endosymbiotic theory, is an evolutionary theory of the origin of eukaryotic cells from prokaryotic organisms, first articulated in 1905 and 1910 by the Russian botanist Konstantin Mereschkowski, and advanced and substantiated with microbiological evidence by Lynn Margulis in 1967. It holds that the organelles distinguishing eukaryote cells evolved through symbiosis of individual single-celled prokaryotes ( bacteria and archaea ). The theory holds that mitochondria, plastids such as chloroplasts, and possibly other organelles of eukaryotic cells represent formerly free-living prokaryotes taken one inside the other in endosymbiosis, around 1.5 billion years ago. In more detail, mitochondria appear to be related to Rickettsiales proteobacteria, and chloroplasts to nitrogen-fixing filamentous cyanobacteria. Among the many lines of evidence supporting symbiogenesis are that new mitochondria and plastids are formed only through binary fission, and that cells cannot create new ones otherwise; that the transport proteins called porins are found in the outer membranes of mitochondria, chloroplasts and bacterial cell membranes; that cardiolipin is found only in the inner mitochondrial membrane and bacterial cell membranes; and that some mitochondria and plastids contain single circular DNA molecules similar to the chromosomes of bacteria.

[ 1]The theory of symbiogenesis (Greek: σύν syn \"\"together\"\", βίωσις biosis \"\"living\"\", and γένεσις genesis \"\"origin or birth\"\") was first outlined by the Russian botanist Konstantin Mereschkowski in his 1905 work, The nature and origins of chromatophores in the plant kingdom, and then elaborated in his 1910 The Theory of Two Plasms as the Basis of Symbiogenesis, a New Study of the Origins of Organisms. [ 2] [3] [4] Mereschkowski was familiar with work by botanist Andreas Schimper, who had observed in 1883 that the division of chloroplasts in green plants closely resembled that of free-living cyanobacteria, and who had himself tentatively proposed (in a footnote) that green plants had arisen from a symbiotic union of two organisms. [ 5] In 1918 the French scientist Paul Portier ( fr) published Les Symbiotes in which he claimed that the mitochondria originated from a symbiosis process. ["

There are many causes of a weak heart muscle, most common being hypertension and diabetes. The heart may also have been damaged from a viral infection, or even silent heart attacks (unlikely at your age). The cardiologist can give insight into the possible causes, and will monitor your response to treatment."

N`da and S. Pessinaba ABSTRACTMany studies are related to high prevalence of hyperhomocysteinemia in Western Africa, suggesting the necessity to evaluate the consequence of this risk factor on diseases in this area. Some studies showed a strong association between hyperhomocysteinemia and stroke in these populations but studies on the relationship between hyperhomocysteinemia and coronary heart disease s are rare. The purpose of present study was to determine the correlation between hyperhomocysteinemia and coronary heart disease s in African patients. In this cross sectional study, we analyzed the relationship between hyperhomocysteinemia and coronary heart disease s just as other conventional risk factors in 207 admitted African patients divided into case and control groups based on the diagnosis of coronary heart disease, from January 2008 to June, 2011. There was no correlation between homocysteine level and conventional risk factors. The prevalence of hyperhomocysteinemia was 56.5% in patients with coronary heart disease s vs. 50% in patients without coronary heart disease, p = 0.37; OR = 1.30 (95% CI:0.72-2.33). However, 66.7% of patients with acute coronary syndrome vs., 48.4% of patients without acute coronary syndrome had hyperhomocysteinemia, p = 0.03; OR = 2.12 (1.04-4.32); in the same way, 75% of patients with myocardial infarction vs. 49.7% of patients without myocardial infarction had hyperhomocysteinemia, p = 0.03; OR = 3.03 (95% CI:1.06-8.7). The prevalence of hyperhomocysteinemia was 66.7% in patients with acute coronary syndrome vs. 40.7% in patients with stable angina pectoris, p = 0.03. These differences persisted after adjusting for age, gender and LDL cholesterol. There was a strong correlation between hyperhomocysteinemia and acute coronary syndromes in black African patients."

Dr. Ricardo Alvillar , Baylor College of Medicine Answered Aug. 23, 2012 40 years experience in Internal Medicine - Rheumatology Changes in intrathor. Inspiration leads to a more filling of the atrium; thus, more blood must flow through the mitral valve, enhancing the flow rate which makes the murmur louder.

In general when you expire (breath out) you decrease the amount of venous return to the right side of the heart but increases blood volume going to the left heart. Left sided murmurs will increase in intensity with expiration and right sided murmurs will increase in intensity/sound with inspiration."

Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: It is a vague term, and can be used for high/low levels of Na,K,Ca, and myocardial toxicity of of cardiac drugs e.g digoxin. It can be used for myocardial infection (myocitis), valvular diseases,conduction defects etc. Normally it is used for a shift in the normal pattern of myocardium rhythm as documented in myograph of ECG/EKG. Dr. Qutub · 1 decade ago0 0 Comment An ECG aka EKG measures the force and direction of electrical flow in the heart. An \"\"abnormal\"\" finding would simply mean that the flow differs from what is expected in most hearts. This can be caused by many factors. It could be that the electrical pathways have been damaged by a current or old heart attack (infarct). It could be that the pathways are not conducting properly due to blockage of the coronary arteries reducing the blood and oxygen to part of the heart (ischemia). Another possibility is that abnormal levels of electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and calcium are interfering with the conduction."

S. specializes in a number of cardiology disciplines, including vitamin D deficiency and cardiovascular disease. Her research interests focus on preventive cardiology and subclinical atherosclerosis imaging. Do lower vitamin D levels mean higher risk for cardiovascular disease? A growing number of studies point to vitamin D deficiency as a risk factor for heart attacks, congestive heart failure, peripheral arterial disease (PAD), strokes, and the conditions associated with cardiovascular disease, such as high blood pressure and diabetes. Dr. Erin Michos, Assistant Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins Hospital in the Division of Cardiology, has examined and contributed a great deal of data on vitamin D deficiency and the heart, including a study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine. She stops short, however, of stating that raising vitamin D levels lowers the risk of cardiovascular disease. “Now that we have identified this risk factor for heart disease,” says Dr. Michos, “the question is, if you’re deficient and I give you vitamin D back, can I actually prevent a heart attack?” Dr. Michos believes that question will be answered more conclusively by large clinical trials over the next 5-8 years. What is vitamin D? Vitamin D acts as a hormone, regulating more than 200 genes throughout the body."

Ezetimibe is recommended as second line therapy for those intolerant of statins or unable to achieve target LDL cholesterol levels on statins alone by several major medical group practice guidelines, including the American College of Cardiology.

Guidelines issued by the European Society of Cardiology/European Atherosclerosis Society, [3] the Japan Atherosclerosis Society, [4] the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence, [5] and the International Atherosclerosis Society [6] recommend ezetimibe as one of several second line treatment options for people who are intolerant of statins or who are unable to reach serum LDL goals using statins alone.

"text": "What is Nuclear Medicine Used For? By: Florida Medical Clinic | On: June 28, 2016What is Nuclear Medicine? Nuclear medicine is a branch of medical imaging that helps physicians identify, diagnose, and treat certain conditions by using small amounts of radioactive material. Nuclear medicine is especially valuable in pinpointing molecular activity, which enables doctors to judge the severity of a condition. Identifying molecular activity can also show how well a patient is responding to therapeutic interventions. A typical nuclear medicine imaging procedure: Tiny amounts of radioactive materials called ‘radiotracers’ or ‘radiopharmaceuticals’ are either injected directly into the bloodstream, swallowed, or inhaled. The radiotracers accumulate in the organ or area which will be examined. A special camera or imaging device that can read radioactive emissions is then able to take images of the area, creating pictures and molecular information that physicians can use to make a diagnosis. In some medical centers, the images from nuclear medicine imaging can be used in conjunction with the results of CT or MRI scans in a process known as ‘image fusion’. Image fusion allows for more precise information for a diagnosis."

"text": "\"Internal Medicine Medicine and Healthcare What does an internal medicine doctor do?8 Answers Flores Donald, App Developer at Apps Chopper (2016-present)Answered Dec 27, 2016We use different terminologies for referring any doctor with distinctive specialization. A person dealing with medical problems and diseases or any health issue is categorized as doctor, physician, surgeon and somehow a chemist as well. A decade ago, it was considered that a well-trained physician never conducts operations and on the other hand, those who conduct operations were treated as surgeons even if they were not holding academic training. Today, knowledge, specialization plus experience are the major skills which are necessary in order to gain professionalism in any field. Being an internist, a person holding specialization in any specific medical field is recognized as a specialist physician. Majorly, a physician can also conduct surgeries with proper training and expertise. However, the field of internal medicine is very wide and it is widely known as primary care. There are two types of physicians, first is the one who cares only for adults and called adult primary care physician and the second is a one who acts as a pediatrician and known as a family practitioner. Moreover, internal medicine is categorized in the Cardiology, Endocrinology, Geriatric medicine, Pulmonology, Hematology and more.

Without blood and the oxygen it carries, part of the heart starts to die. A heart attack doesn't have to be deadly. Quick treatment can restore blood flow to the heart and save your life. Your doctor might call a heart attack a myocardial infarction, or MI. Your doctor might also use the term acute coronary syndrome for your heart attack or unstable angina.

"text": "What is the Difference Between Rose Otto and Rose Absolute?by Liz Fulcher | Apr 14, 2014 | Education, Essential Oils, Hydrosols | 25 comments In every class I teach, as soon Rose oil is mentioned I know the question will be asked about the differences between Rose Otto and Rose Absolute, and rightly so. They are often both available from the same vendor under “Rose Oil” and many recipes will specify using one or the other. They vary in aroma, color, viscosity and price. If you don’t know the difference, it can be very confusing. I’m here to de-confuse you. Below is an explanation of the different methods of extracting rose essential oils and hence, the different products born of each method. There are three methods of extracting the essential oil from rose petals:1. Hydro Distillation: Rose petals (usually from the Rosa damascena plant) are placed in a container with pure water then slowly heated. The warm water allows the flowers to release their essential oil. The steam and essential oil pass through a cooling process and finally to a container where the oils float on the surface."

After graduating from college in 1990, Mc Candless traveled across the North American continent and eventually hitchhiked to Alaska in April 1992. There, he set out along an old mining road known as the Stampede Trail, with minimal supplies, hoping to live simply off the land. In September, Mc Candless' decomposing body, weighing only 30 kilograms (66 lb), was found by a hunter in a converted bus, Fairbanks Bus 142, used as a backcountry shelter along the Stampede Trail, on the eastern bank of the Sushana River. His cause of death was officially ruled to be starvation, [2] [3] although the exact cause remains the subject of some debate. [ 4] [5] [6] [7]In January 1993, Jon Krakauer published Mc Candless' story in that month's issue of Outside magazine."

Therefore, the next step is to identify those traits that illustrate how people cope when obstacles roll into their paths. Carin read each book and extracted what she thought were the relevant traits.

"text": "Horsetails Horsetails ( Equisetum) can be found in damp habitats, growing along side streams and rivers. Like the ferns they are archaic plants, thriving in abundance during the time of the dinosaurs. Today there are about 15 living species. They are common in the Northern hemisphere and in temperate zones, rarer in the tropics and absent from Australia and New Zealand. The stems shoot from subterranean rhizomes, dying back each year in cold climates. They may also produce subterranean expansions of the roots or tubers that store starch to fuel the initial growth each spring. The growth is monopodial (as in palm trees) - a single axis bears whorls of side-branches. eventually, when ripe, the end of the stem terminates in a 'cone' or strobilus. The leaves are very small and called microphylls. They form a sheath around the stem and are visible just above each whorl of branches."

Frank Keat, 80, wanted to visit the stables where he worked for 65 years one final time, but was too frail to leave Bodmin Community Hospital where he was being treated for cancer.

The former NFL player will be joining the morning news show 'several days a week' but will continue co-hosting 'Live with Kelly and Michael' every day. Both 'Live' and Good Morning America are ABC programs and the anchors regularly fill in for one another when on sick leave, but this is the most permanent connection between the two staffs. Scroll Down for Video+4A part of the family: Michael Strahan (right) will be joining Good Morning America 'a few days' a week while still keeping his full time gig as a co-host on ABC's 9am talk show 'Live with Kelly and Michael'George Stephanopoulos specifically cited 'the way that you and Kelly (Ripa) all stepped in while Robin (Roberts) was away with her transplant' as an example of how Strahan was already a part of the show. ' It's a family and we appreciate you guys too,' Strahan said of him and Ripa. His introduction at the top of GMA's second hour this morning was brief- with a crowd cheering him in and gag gifts like an alarm clock and a giant coffee mug from his new colleagues- because he had to get out of the studio quickly to head uptown to the 'Live' studios to be there in time for the 9am show. When he sat down next to Ripa on 'Live' an hour later, he said that the introduction was 'good, it was quick'. ' Hopefully it's a match made in heaven,' he said. Strahan will formally start with GMA next week, working for the morning show a few times a week, but no one specified what time and filming constraints would be imposed in order for him to make his double shifts work. Pre-taped segments with live introductions, creative use of the various ABC studios in Manhattan, and scheduling Strahan in the first hour of GMA could all be used as possible ways to make the situation work."

The suspected gunman entered the Cascade Mall in Burlington, Washington, about 65 miles north of Seattle, and 10 minutes later, at about 7 p.m. local time, opened fire in the makeup department of Macy's, police said. Surveillance video images released by authorities showed that the suspect, whom police described as Hispanic and in his late teens or early 20s, went into the mall without the rifle that he shortly after brandished in the department store. Four women, ranging in age from teens to seniors, were killed, and a man who had sustained life-threatening injuries died at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle early Saturday morning, several hours after he was taken there, said Sgt. Mark Francis, a public information officer with the Washington State Patrol. Skagit County Coroner Hayley Thompson said at a press conference Saturday morning that the victims' identities will be released once autopsies are complete and next of kin notified. Police believe the suspect acted alone, and the FBI said it has no indication at this point that the shooting is linked to terrorism. \"\" We have no indication this was a terrorism act,\"\" Michael Knutson, assistant special agent in charge of the Seattle FBI, said at the press conference. \"\" There is no evidence to support that. \"\" But Knutson cautioned, \"\"I cannot discount it. \"\""

They suffered 20+ point losses at home to Indiana State and Fort Wayne, but own top 50 wins over Notre Dame, Penn State, and Maryland. After beginning Big Ten play with a 5-3 record, Indiana has now lost four straight games, although the past three have come against conference leaders Purdue, Ohio State, and Michigan State. They are without 6’10” sophomore forward De’Ron Davis, who was averaging 9.6 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.5 blocks, and 1.1 assists in 15 games before suffering a season ending achilles injury. In addition, fifth year senior forward Collin Hartman has missed 8 games over three different stretches. He did return and played 9 minutes on Saturday after missing the previous two contests with a leg injury. Indiana is just 12th in Big Ten play in offensive efficiency and they have not been a great shooting team this season, as they average 44.8% from the field, 30.2% from three-point range, and 65.7% from the free throw line. That’s a similar line to Rutgers, who are shooting 40.7%, 30.2%, and 63.9% comparatively. However, the Hoosiers are shooting 52.% from two-point range, while Rutgers is making just 42.7%. Indiana does have the 5th best offensive rebounding rate and free throw rate (efficiency in getting to the line) in conference play."

"text": "\"RAND > Published Research > Technical Reports > TR-562/14 >Analysis of Comparative Effectiveness Comparative effectiveness research examines the degree to which alternative treatments for the same health problem produce equivalent or different health outcomes. The products of comparative effectiveness research can be used in a variety of ways, including to provide information to physicians and patients in choosing appropriate treatments, as well as input into insurance benefit design, coverage determination, and payment. These are the nine performance dimensions against which we measured Comparative Effectiveness: Spending Consumer Financial Risk Waste Reliability Patient Experience Health Coverage Capacity Operational Feasibility Spending Under some circumstances, using comparative effectiveness research might reduce overall spending, but there is no clear evidence on the direction and magnitude of the relationship: Theory suggests that, under some circumstances, use of comparative effectiveness research might decrease overall spending. Read more below The effects of comparative effectiveness research on health care spending have not been studied, and they are inherently difficult to measure. Read more below The findings of comparative effectiveness studies will determine whether the results could lead to decreased costs. The extent to which this will occur depends on studies being designed in a way that permits valid comparisons of alternatives and on finding clear opportunities for cost savings. Read more below Theory suggests that, under some circumstances, use of comparative effectiveness research might decrease overall spending. Although empirical evidence is limited, theory suggests that the use of comparative effectiveness research might decrease overall health spending. Spending reductions would require: first, the development and assembly of objective, unbiased evidence on the relative effectiveness of various treatments; second, a clear set of results that point to a clinically superior and less costly choice of intervention; and third, the use of that information to change service utilization by providers and consumers of health care. Comparative effectiveness research could result in improvements in the value of services provided without meeting all three of these conditions, but these improvements might be achieved at increased levels of spending."

"text": "Healthy Eating: Farmed vs. Wild Caught Fish By Kristin Carino, RDWe’re all familiar with large-scale agriculture and its effects on our health and the environment. Did you know that something similar is happening in our waters? Fish farming, or aquaculture, has been the fastest growing sector of animal food production in the world since 1970. The fish raised—in netted cages in coastal waters—currently provide almost one third of all seafood sold. Estimates are that half the fish consumed worldwide will be farm-raised by the year 2025. Fish can either be one of the best foods for you or detrimental to your health, depending on where it is sourced. There is a world of difference between fish that is caught in the wild, farm-bred or farm-raised fish. At first glance, fish farming may seem like a good idea, a way to ease the stress on overfished populations and help meet the food demands of the world population. But large-scale aquaculture also brings problems, especially antibiotic use. The most common farm-raised fish are salmon, tilapia, sea bass, catfish, and cod."

"text": "Coverage with evidence development is a tool used by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) in an attempt to bring a new rationale to payment decisions and, ultimately, cost savings to the Medicare program. Here we explore the latest evolution in Medicare coverage policy and coverage with evidence development (CED), discussing how it developed and what it means for practicing oncologists. Origins of CEDEvidence-based medicine (EBM), making treatment decisions on the basis of previous examples of effectiveness or ineffectiveness, is the foundation for identifying gaps in evidence and for evaluating existing evidence to establish best practices. 1 With the variety of oncologic treatments, diseases, and presentations, oncology has been described as depending on evidence-based decision making, possibly more than any other medical specialty. 2 ASCO's clinical practice guidelines (CPGs), which synthesize evidence from clinical research into clear and useful applications for practicing oncologists, are a familiar example. Quality and Pay-for-Performance During recent years, use of EBM and adherence to such tools as CPGs has been linked to quality assurance measures, and quality assurance to payment. Although there are many benefits to using CPGs as a tool to evaluate quality, there are also drawbacks. “ CPGs are viewed as credible sources of data for what might be considered effective care. However, CPGs are primarily designed as tools to broadly inform patient care, rather than a roadmap for the treatment of a specific patient,” wrote Wolff and Desch in a 2005 Journal of Oncology Practice article. 1 “CPGs have a stated goal to improve quality of care, but there is significant variability in how quality is defined and they commonly lack validated quality indicators."

Iron (III) oxide or ferric oxide is the inorganic compound with the formula Fe2O3. It is of one of the three main oxides of iron, the other two being iron (II) oxide (Fe O), which is rare, and iron (II,III) oxide (Fe3O4), which also occurs naturally as the mineral magnetite. As the mineral known as hematite, Fe2O3 is the main source of the iron for the steel industry. Fe2O3 is paramagnetic, reddish brown, and readily attacked by acids. Rust is often called iron (III) oxide, and to some extent, this label is useful, because rust shares several properties and has a similar composition.

Women's basketball coach C. Vivian Stringer was the top earner in the athletic department for the third straight year, according to information obtained by Gannett New Jersey, as she grossed $1.6 million. That amount includes about $676,000 in deferred compensation received as a lump sum but paid out annually by Rutgers during a contract that ran through June 30, 2014.

He believed that human nature is \"\"exquisitely rational\"\" (Rogers, 2004 p 194). His theory came from his work as a psychotherapist. The aim of the therapy is to facilitate a reintegration of the self-concept. Rogers believed that people know what is causing the psychological imbalance in their lives and that deep down they know what they need to do to regain their balance or self-actualisation to become \"\"Fully Functioning\"\" persons (Rogers 2004).

Tweet“He who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is enlightened.” – Lao Tzu The idea of client centered therapy might seem redundant – after all, when is therapy not centered on the client? This term seems redundant now, but when it was first developed, it was a novel idea. Before the humanistic therapies were introduced in the 1950s, the only real forms of therapy available were behavioral or psychodynamic (Mc Leod, 2015). These approaches focused on the subconscious or unconscious experience of clients rather than what is “on the surface. ”Many of today’s popular forms of therapy are more client centered than the psychotherapy of the early 20th century, but there is still a specific form of therapy that is set apart from others due to its focus on the client and aversion to giving the client any type of direction. So, how does the Lao Tzu quote apply to client centered therapy? Read on to learn about how knowing one’s self and others is key to the client centered approach.

Carl Luce was Holden's student adviser at the Whooton School; Holden feels able to confide in him Carl Luce Holden also wants to talk to Carl about Sex; a topic that seems to be troubling Holden the most Through Carl Luce we learn how lonely Holden really is * Holden becomes an annoying child during their conversation and pesters Carl about sex, which is quite a childish topic * Carl tells Holden he is being childish which seems to distance the two and their relationship * Carl gives Holden advice that he should speak with a psychoanalyst about his many problems * Through Carl we see a change in Holden's general attitude towards his situation * The thought regarding Carl's sexuality seems to bug Holden quite a lot; the theme of homosexuality plays on Holden's mind a lot Carl allows us, the reader, to see more of Holden and who he really is rather than the persona we are exposed to throughout the novel Whilst talking with Carl Luce, Holden gets very drunk and calls Sally Hayes They talk for a few minutes but Sally is unimpressed by Holden's childish acts Holden walks to Central Park where he walks to the lagoon where he hopes to find the ducks He nearly falls into the lagoon as he is so drunk he cannot stand upright Here he also drops the record \"\"Little Shirley Beans\"\" which he bought for his sister Phoebe; it breaks into many pieces Holden decide to return to his familie's apartment and see Phoebe Holden wants to catch every young child who is going to fall off the cliff at the edge of the Rye Field This symbolizes how he wants to protect children from the corrupt world of adults The idea comes from a misinterpretation of a Robert Burns poem he heard being sung by a young child Phoebe corrects him about this but it does not prevent him from thinking this is what he will do in life This dream however soon fades when Holden realises that it is not possible to protect people from adulthood forever At Mr. Antolini's House Holden has a long conversation over his school work and how he is going to apply himself in the future Mr. Antolini Holden falls asleep at the Antolini residence but awakes to Mr. Antolini patting him on the head Like many characters in the novel, he drinks heavily.

"text": "\"CARL ROGERS1902 - 1987Dr. C. George Boeree In French - translated by Kate Bondareva In Macedonian - translated by Katerina Nestiv In Hindi - translated by Nicol Biography Carl Rogers was born January 8, 1902 in Oak Park, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, the fourth of six children. His father was a successful civil engineer and his mother was a housewife and devout Christian. His education started in the second grade, because he could already read before kindergarten. When Carl was 12, his family moved to a farm about 30 miles west of Chicago, and it was here that he was to spend his adolescence. With a strict upbringing and many chores, Carl was to become rather isolated, independent, and self-disciplined. He went on to the University of Wisconsin as an agriculture major. Later, he switched to religion to study for the ministry. During this time, he was selected as one of ten students to go to Beijing for the \"\"World Student Christian Federation Conference\"\" for six months. He tells us that his new experiences so broadened his thinking that he began to doubt some of his basic religious views."

This was again based on a chat between Chandler and myself, where we have both found it is really difficult to infer within compilers that a class can be devirtualized, but often there is only one class in production that instantiates a given type. So the idea is to just make this explicit, i.e.struct IFoo {virtual void Do Foo () = 0;~ My Interface () = default;};// production classstruct Foo: IFoo [ [ devirtualize ]] {void Do Foo () final { /* Do production stuff */ }};// test classstruct Mock Foo: IFoo {void Do Foo () final { /* Do test stuff */ }}; I'm quite in favor of this, for a number of reasons (e.g. I quite like virtual methods but I don't like their performance), and apparently this proposal isn't very hard to implement from a compiler's perspective. And as an aside, this would allow me to remove hacks like this from my code:#define TEST_MODE 1#ifdef TEST_MODE#define TEST_VIRTUAL virtual#else#define TEST_VIRTUAL#endifstruct IFoo {virtual void Do Foo () = 0;~ IFoo () = default;};// production classstruct Foo {TEST_VIRTUAL void Do Foo () {}};// test classstruct Mock Foo: IFoo {virtual void Do Foo () {}}; Cheers, Carl Re: [ [Devirtualize]]Vishal Oza10/27/17 6:52 PM Have you tried using templates or maybe meta-classes when the come into the standard? I think the [ [devirtualize]] attribute could be unnecessary if they could do the same thing as the attribute.

"text": "A Guide to Control Charts Carl Berardinelli 51Control charts have two general uses in an improvement project. The most common application is as a tool to monitor process stability and control. A less common, although some might argue more powerful, use of control charts is as an analysis tool. The descriptions below provide an overview of the different types of control charts to help practitioners identify the best chart for any monitoring situation, followed by a description of the method for using control charts for analysis. Identifying Variation When a process is stable and in control, it displays common cause variation, variation that is inherent to the process. A process is in control when based on past experience it can be predicted how the process will vary (within limits) in the future. If the process is unstable, the process displays special cause variation, non-random variation from external factors. Control charts are simple, robust tools for understanding process variability. The Four Process States Processes fall into one of four states: 1) the ideal, 2) the threshold, 3) the brink of chaos and 4) the state of chaos (Figure 1). 3When a process operates in the ideal state, that process is in statistical control and produces 100 percent conformance."

"text": "\"PRB Discuss Online: What Does 'Poverty' Really Mean in India? Facebook Share Tweet This Share Email Print (February 2012) The past few years have seen much hype regarding the economic progress in India, much of it extolling the country's \"\"rising incomes\"\" and \"\"exploding\"\" middle class. Entrepreneurs in the country seem to have believed this, resulting in an overbuilding of glitzy malls and the rapid expansion of the number of domestic airlines. Although there has been definite economic progress in India, who exactly benefits? The number of people living in poverty is often ignored. India's official poverty measure has long been this: People below the poverty line have a daily diet of less than 2,400 kilocalories in rural areas and less than 2,100 kilocalories in urban areas. What do measures of wealth such as \"\"middle class\"\" and \"\"poverty\"\" mean in India, compared to countries such as the United States or those in Europe? Estimates of the number of people in poverty in the country vary wildly, as Carl Haub wrote in a 2010 PRB web article with co-author O. P. Sharma, and even the slightest changes in the definition of poverty can change the number of the poor in India by millions. India is on track to become the world's largest country about 10 years from now, despite declining fertility. How will it manage the population growth in its very large and very poor states?"

They are found in higher density clusters in northern Central America, northwestern South America, northeastern South America, and central southern South America. ( \"\" Cats (Felidae)\"\", 2004; \"\"The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species\"\", 2008; \"\"IUCN/SSC Cat Specialist Group\"\", 1996; Wozencraft, 2005)Biogeographic Regions neotropicalnative Habitat Ocelots are found in a variety of habitats, including tropical forests, savannah grasslands, mangrove forests and marshes, and thorn scrub regions. They generally live at elevations below 1,200 m, but have been sighted at 3,800 m as well. Their primary habitat requirement is dense vegetative cover. Ocelots are found in open areas only when it's cloudy or at night when there is a new moon.

They weigh between 8.5 and 16 kg, are between 65 and 97 cm long, and males are considerably larger than females. Their pelage is shorter and less soft and thick than their close relative, the margay ( Leopardus wiedii ). Their ventral pelage is white and their dorsal pelage ranges from off-white to tawny-yellow to reddish-gray."

family, Ursidae, which also includes black bears, brown bears, and spectaled bears, in the Mammalian Order Carnivora. Its scientific name is Ursus maritimus, which means \"\"sea bear\"\". The polar bear is the largest land carnivore on the planet, and the only other member of Carnivora, along with the sea otter, that is a Marine Mammal. They are the only bears that have fur on their feet. This helps them grip the ice. Males are 7-9ft long and can weigh 700-1600lbs. Females are smaller weighing 330-550lbs. Their bodies are built to survive in the extreme cold of an icy environment and freezing water. These conditions reach temperatures as low as -50ºF. Their blubber can be 4.5 inches thick."

"text": "\"Farrah Fawcett's fatal mistake A U. S. President refused America’s outdated cancer treatments -- Here’s where he went instead Americans would be shocked if they knew that President Reagan, while still in the White House, turned his back on American cancer treatments. He secretly sneaked off to a German clinic — and lived another 19 years. Why? Because German cancer doctors are the best — thanks to breakthrough treatments labeled \"\"quackery\"\" in the U. S. (maybe because they cost a fraction of American treatments). Suzanne Somers, Cher, William Holden and Anthony Quinn are among the celebrities who have gone to clinics you’ll discover in my first-ever English-language guide to German cancer doctors and treatments. Click here to learn more!Cancer Defeated is a major source of information about alternative cancer treatments, so several people have asked us why Farrah Fawcett, the famous actress, died of cancer even though she received alternative treatments in Germany. You may have been among the millions who watched the documentary she made from her deathbed (where she praised her German doctors despite the fact that the treatments hadn’t been successful). As we’ve said many times, Germany is the world’s top destination for people who prefer alternative cancer treatment. If I had early-stage cancer, I might try some of the at-home treatments first, but if those didn’t work — or if I had late-stage cancer -- I’d head for Germany. In fact, if I had any stage of prostate cancer — early or late — personally, I’d forget about the \"\"home remedies\"\" and go straight to Germany, because their top method of treatment is extremely effective when it comes to curing prostate tumors."

"text": "\"To Feed or Not to Feed Meat: One Vet's Take on Vegetarian Dog Diets By Dr. Ernie Ward DVM | Fri Jan 27 16:38:00 EST 2012Twitter Print Email Thinkstock Vetstreet's Dr. Ernie Ward gives his opinion on a sensitive topic: Whether a vegetarian — or even vegan — diet is a good idea for pets. As a long-time vegetarian vet, I'm often asked whether I feed my pets meat. I’m never certain whether it’s an honest question or an attempt to trip me up. It’s similar to being asked, “If you don’t eat meat, where do you get your protein?”My protein comes from the same place the animals people eat happen to get theirs — plants. Can Your Cat or Dog Be Vegetarian or Vegan? The simple answer is that dogs can do just fine on a carefully balanced vegetarian or vegan diet, while cats cannot. Sure, you can try to work around the whole cats-are-obligate-carnivores thing by supplementing certain synthetic amino acids, but it gets tricky — not to mention dangerous to the cat’s health. So the answer is yes for dogs, but no for cats. The comment that I most often hear after I state that dogs can be fed a vegetarian or vegan diet is that canines do better on a meat-based diet. Again, I’m not going to argue."

"text": "Science & Mathematics Zoology What species is the Hyena related to? wolf or cat?2 following 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Both, but hyenas are more closely related to cats than to wolves. All these animals belong to the order Carnivora, but are in different families - hyenas in Hyaenidae, cats in Felidae, and wolves in Canidae. The order Carnivora is divided into two suborders, the Feliformia (cat-like) families, and the Caniformia (dog-like) families. The families Hyaenidae and Felidae both belong to the Feliformia suborder, whilst the Canidae family belongs to the Caniformia suborder - therefore, hyenas are more closely related to animals in the cat family than those in the dog family. It is a common misconception that hyenas are dogs - in fact, as I've already mentioned, they belong to their own family, Hyaenidae. Their dog-like appearance is the result of convergent evolution - the process by which unrelated or distantly related animals evolve similar solutions to similar problems. Genetically, hyenas are closer to cats than to dogs. Source (s): I used to be a zookeeper and have studied animals all my life.

"text": "Natural Prevention and Treatment of Constipation / Bloat in Freshwater Fish ©Posted by Melody Mc Kinnon on January 23rd, 2012Betta fish are susceptible to constipation. Fish do get constipated! It is a problem especially for laterally compressed fish and some fish species seem especially prone to it, such as Goldfish & Bettas. It can also be caused by an improper diet, some manufactured fish foods, or overfeeding. Constipation can and will kill your fish if the blockage is not addressed. Preventing Constipation As it is with humans, roughage/fiber is important to avoiding fish constipation. Even carnivores get vegetation through the stomachs of the fish they consume in the wild, and roughage from bones and crustaceans. Make sure that your fish receives the appropriate amount of fiber/roughage in a form that is suitable for their dietary requirements. The amount required for good digestion depends on the fish, so some research is in order. Too much for the wrong fish or via the wrong source is also not good for their digestive system."

Print Overview Carotenemia is a clinical condition characterized by yellow pigmentation of the skin (xanthoderma) and increased beta-carotene levels in the blood. In most cases, the condition follows prolonged and excessive consumption of carotene-rich foods, such as carrots, squash, and sweet potatoes. Carotenemia is a common finding in children. The condition of carotenemia is harmless, but it can lead to a mistaken diagnosis of jaundice. ( See the image below. ) Carotenoderma visible on nasolabial folds of young child. Carotene is a lipochrome that normally adds yellow color to the skin. With elevated blood levels of carotene, the prominence of this yellowing is increased. Carotenemia may be particularly evident when the stratum corneum is thickened or when the subcutaneous fat is strongly represented. The condition is more easily appreciated in light-complexioned people, and may present chiefly as yellowing of the palms and the soles in more darkly pigmented individuals."

"text": "What Causes Yellow Color in My Hands?by SUZANNE S. WILEY Aug. 14, 2017Changes to the color of your skin can be a worrisome discovery, whether this discoloration is noticeable all over or limited to certain areas such as your hands or feet. Yellow hands is one such discovery, with a variety of potential causes, including one that is considered harmless -- your diet. However, see your doctor for any such skin color changes, as yellow hands and skin are sometimes related to a serious medical condition. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Dietary Causes A condition called carotenemia is characterized by yellow pigmentation of the skin, caused by elevated levels of beta-carotene -- a pigment found in yellow, orange and green plants and a substance the body converts to vitamin A. Since carotene is one of the pigments that adds tone to the skin, a buildup of beta-carotene in the body adds excess yellow to the skin tone. A common reason for carotenemia is related to prolonged and excessive intake of foods rich in beta-carotene, such as carrots, squash, sweet potatoes and spinach. Dietary carotenemia tends to be most noticeable in the palms of the hands and the soles on the feet, as well as the nasolabial folds, or the skin folds that run from the nose to the mouth. Medical Conditions Infrequently, carotenemia is caused by a medical condition. According to a March 2003 review in “International Journal of Dermatology,” conditions including diabetes, high blood fats, hypothyroidism, liver disease and kidney disease uncommonly cause carotenemia. This secondary carotenemia is believed to be caused by faulty metabolism. For example, significantly increased blood fats can bind the carotenoids and prevent normal excretion via sweat, urine and stool."

A: No, Rainforests and orangutan habitats are not destroyed in the growing of Nutiva’s Organic Red Palm Oil. The region of Ecuador where the oil is grown has numerous small family farms, averaging 10 hectares (about 25 acres), interspersed throughout the regional forests. These subsistence farms were planted many years ago and are now being worked by second and third generation farming families. As an organic farm, they have a very healthy environment for animal and plant life that blends with the surrounding forest. While Red Palm Oil grown in SE Asia often contributes to rainforest and orangutan habitat destruction, Nutiva’s Organic Red Palm Oil does not. In fact, orangutans don’t live in Ecuador, which is located in South America. In addition, most palm oil is non-organic, which results in farmers spraying Roundup™or other harsh herbicides at the base of each tree twice year. Organic growing practices avoid introducing such toxins into the environment. In addition, Nutiva has partnered with Natural Habitats in Ecuador to ensure that no deforestation or habitat destruction results from the growing or harvesting process."

They are all organic nutrients that are necessary in small amounts for normal body functioning and good health. Your diet or any supplements you take provide most vitamins. The body can manufacture only three vitamins (D, K, and the B vitamin biotin) from nondietary sources. Unlike carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, vitamins are not sources of energy. Instead, vitamins are chemical partners for the enzymes involved in the body's metabolism, cell production, tissue repair, and other vital processes. Vitamins are either fat soluble or water soluble. The fat-soluble vitamins, which include A, D, E, and K, are absorbed by the body using processes that closely parallel the absorption of fat.

"text": "What Determines Skin Colour? The colour of the skin is determined by the concentrations of three main pigments: melanin, carotene and haemoglobin. These are found in the dermis and combine to produce the pigmentation of all surface tissues including the skin, mucous membranes, and even the eyes. Abnormal concentrations of these substances can cause distinctive colour changes in the skin or other visible body tissues and may help in diagnosis certain illnesses or skin conditions. Melanin Melanin is the main factor influencing skin colour and, while people of different ethnicities have similar numbers of melanocytes (cells that produce melanin), the vast array of skin tones are due to the amount of this pigment that is produced by these cells. Low levels of melanin production can create a pale yellow skin colour, whereas large amounts create very black skin. Conditions such as vitiligo that affect melanocytes may create patchy variation in skin tone, or a complete loss of skin pigmentation. Melanocytes are found in abundance in the mucous membranes, nipples, penis, areola, face, parts of the eye and in the limbs. Melanin protects the body’s cells from ultraviolet radiation damage, which is why sun exposure will usually cause the melanocytes to produce more pigment than usual in order to wrap around the cells’ DNA. Carotene Carotenoids are brightly coloured substances found in carrots, chard, peppers, other vegetables and in egg yolks."

The tomato is native to the Andean region of South America and was under cultivation in Peru in the sixteenth century at the time of the Spanish conquest.

Baby carrots are tender but they also have less flavor because they are yet to mature. These vegetables are believed to have originated about 5000 years ago. In fact, you will be surprised to know that carrots used to be red, black, yellow, white, and mostly purple in colour, but not orange.

Beta carotene is a carotenoid that is considered a provitamin because within your body beta carotene is converted into vitamin A, the National Institutes of Health Office of Dietary Supplements reports. Vitamin A is an essential nutrient your body needs to function. However, excess amounts of beta carotene cause a yellowish discoloration of your skin.

Photograph: Stock Montage/Getty Images J ane Austen's admirer Virginia Woolf said that \"\"of all great writers she is the most difficult to catch in the act of greatness\"\". It is a brilliant insight. The apparent modesty of Austen's dramas is only apparent; the minuteness of design is a bravura achievement. But it cannot be shown by some grand scene or speech. Accuracy is her genius. Noticing minutiae will lead you to the wonderful interconnectedness of her novels, where a small detail of wording or motivation in one place will flare with the recollection of something that happened much earlier."

"text": "\"How To ›Linux How To Show A File's Printable Characters With The Strings Command Share Pin Email Print Reza Estakhrian / Getty Imagesby Juergen Haas Updated April 08, 2018Have you ever tried to open a file in an editor only to find out that it contains unreadable binary content? The Linux \"\"strings\"\" command makes it possible to view the human-readable characters within any file. The main purpose of using the \"\"strings\"\" command is to work out what type of file it is you are looking at but you can also use it to extract text. For instance, if you have a file from a proprietary program which saves files in a strange binary format you can use \"\"strings\"\" to extract the text you put into the file. Example Usage Of The Strings Command A great way to demonstrate the power of the strings command is to create a document using Libre Office Writer. Simply open Libre Office Writer and enter some text and then save it in the standard ODT format. Now open a terminal window (press CTRL, ALT and T at the same time) and then use the cat command to display the file as follows:cat yourfilename.odt | more (Replace the yourfilename.odt with the name of the file you created)What you will see is a whole wall of illegible text. Press the spacebar to scroll through the file. Sporadically throughout the file you will see some of the text you have entered. The strings command can be used to display just the parts that are human readable."

"text": "\"Character Encoding / Line Ends Computers use binary bit patterns to represent, not only numbers, but also characters. A text file contains binary bit patterns that map to printable characters according to some mapping table. While the binary bit pattern all-zeroes, 00000000 , usually represents an integer zero, a printable zero character, i.e. ' 0 ', usually is not encoded in a text file using the zero bit pattern. ( For example, ASCII uses the 7-bit pattern 0x30 to encode a printable zero digit. EBCDIC uses the 8-bit pattern 0x F0 . These are not the same bit patterns used to represent the integer value zero. ) Originally, here in North America, the bit patterns being used for characters only handled English. English only needed a 7-bit or 8-bit character size to include all the letters, digits, and common punctuation, so these character bit patterns all fit nicely into one computer \"\"byte\"\". The mapping of bit pattern to printable character has gotten complex over the past decades due to the introduction of more and more different mappings to include more and more of the world's languages, current and past.

The carriage is especially designed for private passenger use, though some are also used to transport goods. A public passenger vehicle would not usually be called a carriage – terms for such include stagecoach, charabanc and omnibus. It may be light, smart and fast or heavy, large and comfortable or luxurious. Carriages normally have suspension using leaf springs, elliptical springs (in the 19th century) or leather strapping. Working vehicles such as the (four-wheeled) wagon and (two-wheeled) cart share important parts of the history of the carriage, as does too the fast (two-wheeled) chariot. ["

"text": "Carrot oil is obtained by macerating dried and grated carrots in organic vegetal oil. It is rich in vitamins B, C, D and E and contains over 600 carotenoids (powerful antioxidants), the most important being beta-carotene, which our body converts into active vitamin A.1. Use Carrot Oil to Keep Your Skin Young and Have a Beautiful Sun Tan Carrot oil has many beneficial and regenerative skin properties and can be added to beauty masks, moisturizing creams and body lotions. It stimulates skin cells growth and renewal and maintains the elasticity of skin, helping it stay soft, smooth and young looking. It also has considerable skin repairing abilities and is known to sooth and prevent irritations, as well as to heal dry, chapped and cracked skin. Beta carotene antioxidant properties can help skin resist the damaging effects of the sun’s ultraviolet rays and combat the formation of free radicals, which cause premature aging. It can also enhance suntan, by increasing the production of melanin, a pigment that determines our skin color. Carrot oil is therefore widely used in many sun creams and lotions – it protects skin and accelerates and prolongs suntan. To enhance the well being of the skin before and after tanning, add some carrot oil to your regular body lotion or shower gel, or take it in capsule form to prepare your skin for sun exposure.2. Add Glow and Softness to Your Hair Carrot oil has many beneficial nutrients for our hair, including beta carotene and vitamin E, which make of it an excellent conditioner."

"text": "DIY Sunscreen Without Chemicals or Zinc Oxide By suzanne on August 15, 2014 in Green Products, Green Tips, Kids Health, Local and Organic, safe sunscreen It’s taken since the beginning of the summer to source, make, and test this DIY sunscreen recipe. I’m super proud of the fact it’s an effective recipe, made along with my friend Michelle who is a local holistic health nutritionist . We are not doctors, experts in the field of cancer or product manufacturing, but we are two moms on a journey to remove products we see as possibly harmful for our 6 children combined. What changed my thoughts over the last year from buying organic sunscreen to making my own? There have only been a few times in my life where I totally couldn’t wrap my mind around subjects that should have been easy. Sunscreen has always been one of them. Long time Mommy Footprint readers will know how many sunscreen articles I’ve written trying to get to the bottom of ingredients and why titanium dioxide vs zinc oxide are better choices. The topics of 1) preservatives that make products shelf-life stable and 2) nanoparticles and non-nanoparticles are confusing topics that haven’t been researched enough for my liking. And once you remove the zinc and titanium ingredients from organic sunscreen, you start actually looking at ingredients you are left with and think “Hey – I could make this!” It’s very empowering to find your own ingredients that you can pronounce and understand how each one works within a recipe like sunscreen."

"text": "\"During the first five months of storage, carrots will actually increase their Vitamin A content; and, if protected from heat or light, can hold their nutrient content for another two or three months. The crisp texture of carrots is the result of the cell walls being stiffened with the indigestible food fibres cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. The trick to preserving the freshness of carrot roots is to minimize the amount of moisture they lose. Thick cored carrots store the best. The main methods of storing carrots are:-Refrigeration - Freezing - Microwaving - Canning (bottling) - Drying - Pickling - Underground root storage - Left in the ground. Read the USDA Complete Guide to Home Canning, 2009 revision - here. Preparation - Fresh Carrots - First remove the greens as soon as possible as they draw away moisture from the root. Tightly seal unwashed carrots in a plastic bag in the coolest part refrigerator. Wash just before using, since the added moisture in the bag could cause spoilage. Carrots begin to go limp once exposed to air."

Photo Credit: heatheronhertravels.com Now gaining popularity with the general public, this cold-pressed, sensitive, “dry” oil has thoroughly impressed the scientific community at large. Heather, from a Real Food Lover, accurately summarizes two important studies on rosehip seed oil: The first major confirmation of its capabilities came in 1983, when the University of Santiago conducted research on 180 individuals. These tests studied people with extensive facial scarring, acne scarring, deep wrinkles, UV damage, radiation damage, burn scars, surgical scars, premature aging, dermatitis, and other skin related problems. In these tests, rosehip seed oil regenerated the skin, reduced scars and wrinkles, prevented the advancement of wrinkles and aging, and helped skin to regain its natural color and tone. Since this time, other universities and labs have also completed studies, also yielding positive results. Another well-known study in 1988 was conducted on twenty women between the ages of 25-35 with extensive premature aging to their skin. Their skin was wrinkled, and had sun spots from overexposure to the sun."

These three elements work together to support your immune system and help your body fight off cancer. The best diet for preventing or fighting cancer is a predominantly plant-based diet that includes a variety of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. A plant-based diet means eating mostly foods that come from plants: vegetables, fruits, nuts, grains, and beans. The less processed these foods are—the less they’ve been cooked, peeled, mixed with other ingredients, stripped of their nutrients, or otherwise altered from the way they came out of the ground—the better. There are many ways to add plant-based foods to your diet. A nice visual reminder is to aim for a plate of food that is filled at least two-thirds with whole grains, vegetables, beans, or fruit. Dairy products, fish, and meat should take up no more than a third of the plate. Keep in mind that you don’t need to go completely vegetarian. Instead, focus on adding “whole” foods, which are foods close to their original form."

"text": "Newsletter Nutrition Protein Quality, Quantity and Timing National Academy of Sports Medicine · April 26, 2013 5 0 5By Fabio Comana, MA, MS, NASM-CPT, CES, PESProteins are both a source of interest and controversy amongst athletes and individuals seeking to improve performance and overall health. Although there is much to discuss with respect to protein and health (e.g., gluten, soy, etc. ), our goal is to address proteins needs for the active individual. For these individuals, perhaps the most frequently asked question is whether they require additional protein in their diets? While the research is somewhat inconclusive, support does exist for additional protein for endurance and resistance-trained individuals considering how more protein feeds into the energy pathways (approximately 5 – 10 % of total kcal versus 1 – 5 % for the average adult), and how much more proteins are needed to synthesize muscle tissue. While the current USDA Dietary Guidelines recommend 0.8 g per kilogram of body weight (0.364 g per pound), average protein intakes for American males and females are estimated at 1.15 kg and 0.94 grams per kilogram of body weight respectively (44% and 18% more than the recommended guidelines). For inactive individuals, this poses some health concerns with the liver and kidneys, with dehydration, and with potential calcium losses from the bones. In 2009, however, a joint position statement by the American Dietetic Association (now known as Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics), Joint Dietitians of Canada and American College of Sports Medicine made the following recommendations for active individuals: Endurance events (training or engaging in 10 hours or more of more vigorous weekly exercise): 1.2 – 1.4 g per kilogram of body weight Resistance training (training for muscle hypertrophy or strength): 1.4 – 1.8 grams per kilogram of body weight. The National Strength and Conditioning Association position statement recommends 1.5 – 2.0 g per kilogram of body weight. Protein synthesis rates generally increase by 100 % over resting rates during the post-exercise period (recovery), enhancing our opportunities to build muscle."

"text": "Sep13Casein Protein Dangers Posted by Christopher Noftall • 3 Comments What Is Casein Protein: Micellar Casein is a slow digesting and rich protein source that continues to feed your muscles long after whey proteins have dropped off. Studies have shown Micellar Casein protein to sustain steady amino acid elevations for an incredible 7 hours. It was shown to offer a strong anti-catabolic effect not noticed with fast digesting whey protein, and actually fostered a much more positive overall net protein balance in comparison. Side Effects Of Casein Protein: Cancer: In “The China Study,” Dr. T. Colin Campbell explains the apparent link between the occurrence of cancer and consumption of animal protein. What he was able to find was that casein — which is 85 percent of the protein in dairy — promoted cancer in all stages of its development. He concluded that the only safe protein was plant-derived protein. The amount of cancer growth could be controlled based on the amount of casein in the diets of the laboratory animals. This indicates that cancer could be avoided by shunning animal proteins, specifically casein. Other studies are still researching the subject so there is no conclusion as to the link between casein and cancer. When drastically changing your diet, be sure to consult your health professional."

Usually, however, these products will list in bold what allergens are present within, namely milk, nuts, and soy, to make label-scanning a little easier. Aside from the obvious \"\"yogurt\"\" varieties, many cereal bars also contain some form of dairy, ...

An easy and delicious solution is to substitute traditional prepared breadcrumb varieties with panko breadcrumbs, which are usually not only dairy-free but also lower in sodium content. You can also use make breadcrumbs from dry, day-old dairy free bread simply by crumbling the bread with your hands.03of 11Breads, Processed Sandwich Brian Macdonald / Getty Images Processed sandwich breads, both white and wheat varieties, often contain casein, whey or nonfat milk powder and sometimes all three. Although there are exceptions, it is a good idea to seek out sandwich breads that are located in the refrigerated or frozen section of your local health food grocer, such as Ezekiel bread, as these rarely contain any dairy and are delicious, too!04of 11Breads, Quick Breads Norma Murace Melia / Eye Em / Getty Images Quick breads, such as banana nut, corn, and pumpkin, almost always contain butter and milk.

"text": "Article Index > Authors > Mark G. Taylor, M. S. Choosing a protein powder From concentrate to isolate -- the whole story on protein powders, blends, cost and ingredientsby Mark G. Taylor, M. S. Protein powders are very popular for good reasons. They are: More convenient than high-protein foods like meats, fish, eggs and dairy Either fat and cholesterol-free or contain only a small fraction of the fat and cholesterol found in high-protein foods Money-savers when compared to high-protein foods like meats and fish Beneficial in ways beyond merely supplying extra protein Great-tasting and can be used by the whole family Protein powders also happen to be a very large product category with many choices. Many have difficulty sorting through all the options and choosing the right one. This article will help acquaint you with the different types of protein powder, what the key differences are among them and will help you zero in on the specific product that’s right for you. Nutrition Express carries over a hundred protein powders. All of them are good products and all of them work in the sense that they will do a good job of supplementing protein to your diet. So there’s really no wrong one to choose. It’s not unusual—and not a bad idea either—for people to try a few different types over the course of a few months before finding the one they like best. The most common concerns people raise after looking at protein powders and reading labels are allergies to protein components such as lactose, soy, casein or eggs. Another common concern relates to artificial ingredients, which some wish to avoid."

Bodybuilding novices may dismiss these as they jump from article to article. Experienced bodybuilders, however, know better. For those who are serious about training, diet and supplements, perusing the ads is key to gaining information. Think about it you would never hear a car aficionado complain about ads for a new Porsche in Car and Driver. Macworld magazine would suck without the adverts for all the new games and programs coming out. Hell, you’d never hear a pom collector complain about the ads for the new Jenna Jameson video in Hustler. They want to know what new stuff is out there, just like you should. Even for supplement-savvy trainers who see ads as a way to keep track of what’s available, it still can be confusing to sort through all the different types of proteins available today.

"text": "Considering the thousands of dietary supplements on the market today, what should you be using at your age to most effectively aid in the muscle and strength building process...and stay healthy in the process? Teens have many reasons for trying to gain muscle, lose fat, and become stronger and in better overall physical condition. Whether you want to just look good for the opposite sex or for personal satisfaction, or you’d like to get big and strong for sport participation, the correct dietary supplement plan can help. That said, you should always keep in mind that regular and proper exercise training is of primary importance, as is appropriate whole food intake. At the same time, you should strive to avoid the peer pressure to get involved in alcohol and recreational drug use, both of which can significantly impair your strength and physique transformation progress. Do teens need dietary supplements? No. You can obtain great results just by working out hard (and smart) and eating a good quality whole food diet. Many people have done this over the years and you can as well. However, with recent advancements in nutrition science, it is very likely that selected dietary supplements will help you achieve the desired results that you seek sooner or allow you to go beyond what might be obtained with exercise and whole food alone."

"text": "\"Which Foods Contain Whey Protein?by ANDREW BENNETT Oct. 03, 2017Whey protein comes from milk and serves as a source of complete protein, which means it provides all the essential amino acids. Whey digests very quickly, unlike the other component of milk, known as casein protein. A natural byproduct of the cheese-making process, whey protein can be concentrated and isolated from the other compounds in milk, and then used to make powder supplements. Protein powders made from whey have become the number one selling bodybuilding supplement, according to \"\"The Top Ten Supps You Can't Live Without\"\" by Jim Stoppani, Ph D, because of whey's ability to supplement an exercise program to maintain healthy muscle tissue. Several dairy products also naturally contain whey, so consuming dairy also boosts your whey intake. Video of the Day Error setting up player: Invalid license key Ricotta Cheese Ricotta cheese contains the most whey of any whole food because it is made from whey protein. During the cheese-making process, the curds separate from the whey. For years whey protein was a waste product of this process and was simply thrown away. The main difference between ricotta cheese and whey protein powder is that the protein powder manufacturing process removes the fats and sugars. If you use ricotta cheese as a dietary source of whey protein, choose the low-fat or part-skim variations to avoid high saturated fats."

If a powder is derived from milk and altered considerably, the manufacturers are able to call it non-dairy because they have persuaded a government agency that it is non-dairy. Savvy consumers reading the label on this product would quickly realize that many non-dairy creamers are not non-dairy because the labels clearly indicate the product contains sodium caseinate (a milk derivative). Dairy scientists and the Food and Drug Administration agree that these are non-dairy creamers because the caseinate has been so altered it can no longer be considered dairy. According to the information on the Coffee-mate website, \"\"When sodium caseinate is processed, it is so materially altered that both dairy scientists and government regulators no longer regard it as a true dairy substance. This is why sodium caseinate can be an ingredient in non-dairy products according to FDA's regulation 21 CFR101.4 (d). Sodium caseinate also is not a source of lactose.\"\" Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 101 deals with food labeling. Section 101.4 presents the rules for designation of ingredients in foods. Section 101.4 (d) reads as follows: When foods characterized on the label as \"\"nondairy\"\" contain a caseinate ingredient, the caseinate ingredient shall be followed by a parenthetical statement identifying its source."

I get this question all the time, and really, the answer is there is no best protein – many protein sources are very good for different reasons! High-quality whey protein powders are an excellent choice particularly for post-workout nutrition since they get into your system fast to feed those depleted muscles. Micellar casein, on the other hand, is a slow releasing protein and doesn’t get as much of a mention as whey protein, hence this article. It’s no secret that protein intake plays an important role in building muscle and muscle repair. Deciding what the best source of protein is however can be a challenge. Egg protein is one form of protein powder. Before whey protein was introduced to the marketplace, egg white protein was considered the top of the line when it came to protein supplements. Now it ranks right below whey protein and casein protein."

Thanks to the high protein content of powder supplements, adding a scoop or two to your smoothies, baked goods, or shakes can aid in rapid weight loss efforts by boosting calorie burn, increasing satiety, and preserving lean muscle mass. While feeding your muscles on the fly has never been easier, not all powders are created equal. And choosing which product is best can be a bit of a struggle. On one hand, there are animal-based supplements like eggs, whey, and casein, and the other hand is a garden of plant-based forms from pea, hemp, rice, and soy. And even after you pick the source of the protein, there’s still another hurdle to jump: additives. Many powders on the market are loaded with enough scary chemicals and artificial sweeteners to earn them a spot among the unhealthiest foods on the planet. Just because your protein is a powder doesn’t mean you have to settle for one with a label that reads like a science experiment. Because which supplement you pick will ultimately depend on your personal body goals—whether you’re looking to lose weight, gain muscle, or stop late-night snacking—we created this list of examples of the best and worst brands to help you understand what to look out for when examining the labels."
