My english teacher gave us an assignment where we have to type and on the paper explaining the assignment she wrote use double space. Does anyone know what that means? Thanks Follow 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Double spacing adds extra spacing between lines so that it is usually easier to read. Source (s):http://www.wikihow.com/Double-Space-a-Microsoft-Word-Document Brad · 9 years ago3 0 Comment Asker's rating Double-spacing means to leave a blank line between every two lines of text. The easiest way to get this in Word is this: 1. Select all the text you want double-spaced. ( The document doesn't have to be finished to do this. After you do it, any text added will also be double-spaced.) 2."

"text": "\"Paraphrases and Quotes In history classes, you will often find yourself working with the words and ideas of others. It is therefore very important to learn to paraphrase accurately and cite your sources according to a recognized manual of style. This tells your instructors where your information comes from, and demonstrates that you are not trying to cheat. The following examples provide a basic sense of what instructors mean when they talk about paraphrasing and quoting sources. Remember always to check with your instructors about their requirements before beginning a paper. Paraphrasing Paraphrasing is the act of putting information from another source in your own words. This is more than simply changing a couple of words in a sentence. One easy and effective way to paraphrase is to read the passage you are referencing, close the book or put away the article, and try to summarize the ideas yourself. Considering the following block quote: Literacy is a label which covers many different skills and kinds of use. There are those who can read but not write, or are able to recognise road signs but not to read shop names; and those who can manage their literate needs quite well, but would be defeated by the lexicon and syntax of most academic books."

Although hyphens are not to be confused with en dashes and minus signs, there are some overlaps in usage (in which either a hyphen or an en dash may be acceptable, depending on user preference; discussed below) and in character encoding (which often uses the same character, called a \"\" hyphen-minus \"\", to represent both the hyphen and minus sign entities; discussed below ).

For a brief moment after completing a first draft, writers sit back, breathe a sigh of relief, post a self-congratulatory humblebrag about finishing our manuscript, and then immediately think about that one character whose arc we forgot to complete, or that we’re pretty sure we overused the word “that,” or that those squiggly red lines scattered throughout our manuscript are surely incorrect. In other words, the joys of #amwriting give way to the trials of #amediting. As a strong (and biased) believer that every author needs an editor, your first line of literary defense shouldn’t be a professional editor. Rather, you need to learn how to self-edit before sending your manuscript off to be edited. As a full-time editor, I witness dozens of simple mistakes authors constantly make. If only they’d take the time to learn and incorporate better self-editing techniques, they would become better writers, endear themselves to their editors, and maybe even save money on a professional edit. Furthermore, beta readers and early reviewers will be grateful for the creation of a readable early draft. If you’re ready to self-edit your book, consider these 10 tips:1.

Handwriting analysis has been used since the 17th century and handwriting is like your fingerprint, no two people have the same style and there are no distinguishing characteristics to tell if the writer is male or female as handwriting is gender neutral, age also cannot be gauged by someone’s handwriting. Handwriting analysis is used to detect the character of a person and is used by some companies as part of an interview and hiring process, in fact I read of one lady who became a graphologist after being turned down at a job interview, because of her handwriting. It is also used by the police force, especially as people can attempt to forge handwriting or a signature. A person’s character, as well as their mental health can be deciphered during a handwriting analysis. As you write you are placing your subconscious down on paper, your frame of mind, your health, your mental and psychological wellbeing, all show up in your handwriting, it is a window to your inner workings. No two writing styles are the same, each person has a style of writing that is peculiar to them and their personality type. Before making any type of assessment you need more than one or two factors. Handwriting can reveal personality with great accuracy, it can reveal whether you are a clear thinker, or aggressive, whether you are a follower or a leader, an introvert or extrovert and so on. Zones: Your handwriting moves along and it moves up and down."

Phonetically, Classic Greek would sound rather alien to contemporary Greeks, but don’t ever say this to them! It is an issue that most Greeks, even educated ones, ignore. I suspect it is because the alphabet has remained the same, so Greeks can read classic texts with no trouble at all (pronouncing in Modern Greek). After all, it all looks Greek to them! If any (non-Greek) scholar attempts to pronounce classic texts in the reconstructed (1) pronunciation, that, to Greeks is tantamount to sacrilege. As a contemporary Greek myself, I can give you my personal feeling for how the reconstructed pronunciation sounds: it is as if a barbarian is trying to speak Greek. ( 2) For example, take the word “barbarian” itself (which is of Greek origin): in Classic Greek it would be pronounced [barbaros]. In Modern Greek, it is [varvaros]. In general, the second letter of the alphabet, beta, was pronounced as [b] in Plato’s time, but was changed to [v] by the time the Gospels were written. Now, to the modern Greek ear, [v] is a soft sound (a “fricative” in linguistics), sort of smooth and gentle, while [b] is a hard one (a “plosive”), kind of rough and crass. The same can be said about the letter delta, which was pronounced as [d] by Plato, and as [th] (as in this) since around Christ’s time, and the letter gamma ( [g] in Classic Greek, [gh] later the latter sound is a “voiced velar fricative”; click here to see the full repertoire of Modern Greek sounds)."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Sentence spacing is the horizontal space between sentences in typeset text. It is a matter of typographical convention. [ 1] Since the introduction of movable-type printing in Europe, various sentence spacing conventions have been used in languages with a Latin alphabet. [ 2] These include a normal word space (as between the words in a sentence), a single enlarged space, and two full spaces. Until the 20th century, publishing houses and printers in many countries used additional space between sentences. There were exceptions to this traditional spacing method—some printers used spacing between sentences that was no wider than word spacing. [ 3] This was French spacing —a term synonymous with single-space sentence spacing until the late 20th century. [ 4] With the introduction of the typewriter in the late 19th century, typists used two spaces between sentences to mimic the style used by traditional typesetters. [ 5] While wide sentence spacing was phased out in the printing industry in the mid-20th century, the practice continued on typewriters [6] and later on computers. [ 7] Perhaps because of this, many modern sources now incorrectly [3] claim that wide spacing was created for the typewriter. ["

I'm designing a solid and beefy kitchen table that will have of course a solid thick table top. I'm trying to do old fashion, that means without fasteners, called screws and stuff like that. The table will be rectangular with 4 thick angled legs and two strechers (top and bottom). My questions are:1 - How do I attach the table top to the base without screws, is there any advice in joinery to do that?2 - The legs have diferent thicknesses (bottom, up), I'm thinking to do tenons that connect the legs to the top \"\"plate\"\" strait up instead of following the angle of the legs, can anyone give me any advice in this matter? Should I do in any other way? I'm attaching a picture of the sketch. Thanks in advance,Jony P. S. - sorry if my english is not so correct.

( post #170943, reply #1 of 12)by Ralph Barker in reply to brumas [original] on Mon, 01/07/2013 - 11:22The concept of the screw dates back to about 200 BCE, but they were hand-made until the late 1500s, with substantial improvements in mass production in the late 1700s."

"text": "Home »Antiques How to Tell the Age of Antique Furniture By Shelly Mc Rae; Updated April 12, 2017Determining the age of antique furniture is not an exact science, but there are certain indicators of age evident in furniture. How a piece is constructed is a common measure of age. You should look at the screws, nails, wood, joining and hardware. The condition and quality of materials are used to gauge the age of a piece. The wear and tear of a piece of furniture also helps to tell its age. A legitimate antique is one hundred years old or older. It should have a bit of scarring to show for its time. Here are a few tips on how to determine the age of a piece of furniture. Measure the tabletop for round tables. Wood shrinks over time, and only in one direction."

The Luger (Pistole Parabellum or P-08) is perhaps the most aesthetically and ergonomically pleasing of all autoloading centerfire pistols. It is also one of the strongest, most accurate and most recognizable service pistols ever made. ( Bill Ruger frankly admitted styling his .22 Auto, the best selling .22 caliber pistol in the world, after the Luger. ) The standard Luger calibers are 7.65mm and 9mm for both civilian and military models. The 9mm Luger cartridge, developed by Georg Luger, is the most popular and widely distributed pistol cartridge in the world today. Georg Luger developed his famous pistol in 1898-1899 (starting with the Borchardt/Luger transitional pistol). The Luger is, essentially, a much improved Borchardt type pistol, which was itself based on the toggle action concept used by Sir Hiram Maxim in the world's first practical machine gun. The Maxim shot its way to bloody fame in World War One, which also became the combat proving ground for the Luger Pistol."

"text": "What to Look for When Buying Old Furniture Learn how to evaluate the age and quality of your attic treasure or flea-market find. Pinterest Facebook Twitter Email Fox Chapel Publishing If you suspect your piece is pre-1850, like these early 1800s antiques, consult an expert — do not refinish. By: Karin Beuerlein Related To: Furniture Wood If you have a worn old dresser or rickety heirloom chair on your hands, you may be thinking of refinishing it yourself. Older mass-produced pieces whose origins fall somewhere between 1850 and 1960 are ideal candidates for refinishing. With a few exceptions, they don’t have high value as antiques but are solidly made and can last for many years. However, if you have questions about how old your piece is, consult an expert first, says Teri Masaschi, author of Foolproof Wood Finishing: For Those Who Love to Build & Hate to Finish. “ The basic rule of thumb is, if the piece was made before 1850, you want to do some homework on whether it should be conserved rather than restored—meaning to preserve and stabilize the piece as it is now,” she says. “ If it’s been in the family a while, it’s worth finding out before you do some damage. ”To muddy the waters a bit, there are some more recent pieces by prominent makers—for example, from the Art Deco and Arts and Crafts periods (shown in the photo below) — that command high prices and shouldn’t be touched. If you suspect there’s something unusual or distinctively well-made about your piece, go with your gut, Masaschi says, and ask someone who knows."

Countless people do a little woodworking in their free time, or as a hobby. Others have gone from a hobbyist to actually starting a business with their woodworking abilities. Whether it is a career or a hobby for you, the right tools are critical. One of the most important tools in any woodworkers arsenal is the router. A good router is incredibly versatile and allows you to make cutouts and hollow out wood with ease. In fact, Jeremy Broun wrote a book in 1989 called “ The Incredible Router ” describing it as the most versatile tool in the world. Just what all can you do with a router? How about “shape decorative edges, form raised panels, cut grooves and slots, carve signs, make moldings, rout intricate inlays, trim plastic laminate and veneers and mill dozens of woodworking joints, including rabbets, dovetails and mortises, to name a few.” – Popular Mechanics Today we’re going to breakdown the best router for woodworking so you have the tool you need to get the job done – whether you are a serious woodworker or just someone who likes to tinker."

"title": "http://www.strangeguitarworks.com/martin-neck-reset/\nMartin neck reset",
"text": "Jun282014Martin neck reset By Benjamin Strange One of the most difficult and complex jobs a guitar tech can be faced with is a neck reset. Acoustic guitars typically need to have their necks reset every several decades or so, as the 200 some-odd pounds of tension pulling on the neck at all times slowly pulls the neck forward, changing the angle at which it joins the body. It’s pretty easy for anybody to determine whether their instrument needs a neck reset: if the action is high, the neck itself is straight, and the bridge saddle is low in the bridge, it’s a clear indication that the geometry of the guitar has shifted. The proper way to fix this is to take the neck off, reshape the neck/body joint, and put it all back together. I recently completed a neck reset on a 1974 Martin D-28: a fairly complex job made even more difficult by the fact that this Martin didn’t have a truss rod. This Martin neck reset was going to be a doozy!When this guitar showed up in the shop, I instantly noticed that it needed a neck reset: the action was at almost 4mm at the 12th fret, and the saddle was completely buried in the bridge. Sighting down the neck (ALWAYS from the headstock), it was easy to see how far underset the neck was. It’s hard to photograph a bad neck angle, but I tried anyway – hopefully you’ll get the idea: Here’s a shot of the saddle. It’s so low that the strings don’t exert much downforce on the saddle, which can cause a weak tone by the fact that vibrations aren’t transmitted efficiently into the soundboard: Laying a straightedge on the fingerboard reveals exactly how underset this neck was. On a perfect neck set, the straight edge should line up EXACTLY with the top of the bridge."

"text": "\"Westend61 / Getty Images Wood stains are designed to bring out the best in the wood, in particular, the woodworker's skill in building with the wood. Paint, on the other hand, is often used to cover up blemishes or less than ideal woods on a project. Does that mean that paint is always bad and stain is always good? Not at all. Just as a general rule, it takes more time and patience to build a project that will be stained than one that will be painted. Of course, your choice of wood will likely be determined by the type of finish you want to apply. For instance, I doubt many in their right minds would go to the trouble to build a project out of oak or maple, woods that look great stained, only to paint it. Conversely, I don't think we'd see a whole lot of stained poplar woodworking projects, as poplar doesn't have the type of grain or color that is conducive to wood stain. So, with that in mind, what are the keys to applying a really great wood stain finish? Quality Workmanship: This is one of those, \"\"it goes without saying, that's why I'm going to say it\"\" statements, but the first key to a great wood stain finish is to make sure that the project to be stained is one that you would really like to show off."

The reader asked, “What are the differences between Weaver, dovetail and Picatinny bases and rails?”This is a question that a lot of airgunners and firearms shooters have and are unwilling to ask because they think everyone else knows the answer. I thought I knew and was surprised to discover a few things I didn’t know. For our discussion, the terms base and rail are synonymous. Dovetails have been used by cabinetmakers for centuries. Dovetails look like…well, the tail of a dove! The dovetail is centuries old and probably originated with woodworking joinery. This is not a history lesson, but we are surrounded with antique furniture that’s held together by this joint. I believe the name originally came from the fact that the triangular shape of the joint resembles the tail of a dove. The airgun dovetail is a parallel set of grooves running along the top of a receiver to which scope sight bases may be clamped."

"title": "https://sequencing.qcfail.com/articles/mispriming-in-pbat-libraries-causes-methylation-bias-and-poor-mapping-efficiencies/\nIntroduction",
"text": "Introduction In 2012, Miura and colleagues described a new method of preparing libraries for bisulfite sequencing termed P ost- B isulfite A dapter T agging (PBAT). In this technique DNA is sheared by the bisulfite reaction itself, and the fragments that are later sequenced are regenerated by two rounds of random priming with random tetrameric (4N) oligos and strand extension. The undisputed advantage of this method is that a lot less starting material is needed which makes it amenable for rare cell types or even single-cell analyses. Several optimised PBAT-type protocols have since been published or are even available as commercial kits, e.g. the Epi Gnome (epicentre) or Pico Methyl-Seq (Zymo) kits. We and others have noticed early on however that most of these methods introduce a hefty bias in sequence composition at the 5′ end of reads, which corresponds in length exactly to the length of the oligo used for random priming (4N in the original paper, but methods often also use 6N, 9N or 12N). All examples shown in this article used a 9N oligo for the initial pulldown reaction. The Symptoms The biased sequence composition is also carried through to the aligned sequences (not shown here), and sure enough the methylation levels at the first couple of positions is also severely distorted, especially in non-CG context, as can be seen from the Bismark M-bias plot (please also see the M-bias plot in this post ): We never really got to root cause of the problem but were convinced that this has to be a technical artefact rather than a biological effect. We suggested to simply remove the first bases either by 5′ trimming the raw sequences, or by ignoring the first N bases during the methylation extraction. Diagnosis5′ trimming the 4N, 6N or 9N portion of single-end (SE) reads works like a charm for both mapping and M-bias plots, the data looks reasonably clean afterwards and one can achieve mapping rates of 60-70% for 100bp reads and mapping to the mouse genome (which is fairly good). It gets a bit more tricky for paired-end (PE) reads however, because simply removing the biased positions (marked as B below) for both reads of paired-end alignments may result in ‘dovetailing’ reads, where one or both reads seem to extend past the start of the mate read."

A variety of wood joints are used in furniture and cabinetry construction. They can vary in strength, depending on the joint and the design of the piece. Some traditional methods have been used in the past to create super strong wood joints. Today newer products and techniques have also developed. Following are some basic super-strong wood joints, both traditional and modern, and instructions on how to make them. The illustration shows a standard half-lap joint. A glued butt joint is the weakest, a half-lap joint is stronger and adding screws creates an even stronger joint. But traditionally, the strongest wood joint has been a mortise-and-tenon, including both a blind tenon and a “through” tenon. These joints may be used to create frames for frame-and-panel doors, for dust webs, or drawer supports, and even in basic furniture framing, such as legs and rails for tables and chairs."

Wiktionary (0.00 / 0 votes)Rate this definition:downsampling (Noun)The process of reducing the sampling rate of a signal Freebase (0.00 / 0 votes)Rate this definition: Downsampling In signal processing, downsampling is the process of reducing the sampling rate of a signal. This is usually done to reduce the data rate or the size of the data. The downsampling factor is usually an integer or a rational fraction greater than unity. This factor multiplies the sampling time or, equivalently, divides the sampling rate. For example, if 16-bit compact disc audio is downsampled to 22,050 Hz, the audio is said to be downsampled by a factor of 2. The bit rate is also reduced in half, from 1,411,200 bit/s to 705,600 bit/s, assuming that each sample retains its bit depth of 16 bits.

What’s more impressive than the low-light handling is the fact the AF locked on with absolutely no problems. Versus the D700, when downsampled to match, I’d say the D800 is around 1-1/2 stops better. If I nail the exposure, I would definitely feel comfortable with a 25,600 image at 5×7… *maybe* 8×10 if the stars were aligned. I’d say I felt this way about the D700 at ~ISO 8000.

The algorithm is Bicubic, but the increments are user controlled in the scaling dialog. So, basically, you resize image to 105% or 110% and then do it again and again. The evidence would indicate that smaller steps produce better results than less steps or one giant leap. It's also possible that I misread it, but I don't think so, tools like Photoshop ask you select scale and algorithm. –"

If you use active speakers (with integrated amplifier), you should use the \"\"audio out\"\" (the 2 RCA/cinch connections; white/red) and not the \"\"coax out\"\" connection. The \"\"coax out\"\" can only be used in combination with a receiver/amplifier which has a \"\"coax in\"\". \"\" Coax\"\"-Audio is digital, \"\"audio out\"\" is analog. If you use a \"\"coax\"\"-connection to a analog amplifier, it could be damaged. So if you have active speakers or an old stereo amplifier/receiver, use the \"\"audio out\"\" connections. If you have a amplifier/receiver with \"\"coax in\"\", use the \"\"coax out\"\" connection. When you use the \"\"coax\"\" connection you maybe have to change some settings in the player setup."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Low compression (high quality) JPEGHigh compression (low quality) JPEGIn information technology, lossy compression or irreversible compression is the class of data encoding methods that uses inexact approximations and partial data discarding to represent the content. These techniques are used to reduce data size for storage, handling, and transmitting content. Different versions of the photo of the cat above show how higher degrees of approximation create coarser images as more details are removed. This is opposed to lossless data compression (reversible data compression) which does not degrade the data. The amount of data reduction possible using lossy compression is much higher than through lossless techniques. Well-designed lossy compression technology often reduces file sizes significantly before degradation is noticed by the end-user. Even when noticeable by the user, further data reduction may be desirable (e.g., for real-time communication, to reduce transmission times, or to reduce storage needs). Lossy compression is most commonly used to compress multimedia data ( audio, video, and images ), especially in applications such as streaming media and internet telephony. By contrast, lossless compression is typically required for text and data files, such as bank records and text articles. In many cases it is advantageous to make a master lossless file which is to be used to produce new compressed files; for example, a multi-megabyte file can be used at full size to produce a full-page advertisement in a glossy magazine, and a 10 kilobyte lossy copy can be made for a small image on a web page."

I tried looking it up, but all I can find (whether online or even in some electronics texts) is general information on how transformers work (induction, Faraday’s law, construction, etc.) and explanations of the difference between step-ups and step-downs in terms of the number of turns, but not specifically how step-ups result in more voltage.

In the video space, there’s always a lot of talk about these number ratios – 4:4:4, or 4:2:2, or 4:1:1, but what exactly do they mean? Recently, someone argued with me that it was better to convert every video clip from my Canon Rebel T2i DSLR camera into a 4:4:4 intermediate codec before editing; that this would make the color magically “better” and that editing natively was somehow bad. They were wrong, and I’m going to explain why. Before you read on, make sure you’ve read my earlier articles on 32-bit floating point and on YUV color, and look at the picture from the Wikimedia Commons site of the barn in YUV breakdown. In the picture of the barn, try to look at the fine detail in the U and V channels. Typically, without any brightness information, it’s hard to see any detail in the color channels. The naked eye just does a much better job distinguishing brightness than color."

Render scaling is just basically either rendering at a lower resolution or at a higher resolution. Really, that's basically it. Native would just mean whatever your monitor resolution is. In games like Overwatch and Shadows of Mordor, they have built in upscale and downscale tech so you get the quality of that resolution without having to actually changing the game resolution. Upscaling would render the game at say, 4k, and downsample the best looking pixels into your 1080p monitor."

Most modern GPUs are capable of this form of anti-aliasing, but it greatly taxes resources such as texture, bandwidth, and fillrate.

"text": "Nvidia “Dynamic Super Resolution”Posted on 2014-09-20It looks like Nvidia has been implementing real driver support for higher-quality downsampling: Article on Geforce.com And on PC Gamer They have a much nicer name for it – Dynamic Super Resolution – even though I still don’t see what exactly is dynamic about it. If you read their description, it does sound like it sets out to fix many of the issues I also tried to circumvent when I first started working on Ge Do Sa To: Enthusiasts with compatible monitors and technical knowledge refer to this process as Downsampling, and for some time they’ve been applying a basic version to improve fidelity in games. DSR improves upon this process by applying a high-quality Downsampling filter that significantly improves image quality, by making Downsampling compatible with all monitors, by removing the need for technical know-how, and by integrating DSR into Ge Force Experience, enabling gamers to apply DSR Optimal Playable Settings with a single click. Improving downsampling quality and making it independent from monitor hardware compatibility have always been two of the most essential goals of Ge Do Sa To. Obviously, with driver integration you are also in a position to make things much easier for non-technical users, something which was never a real target for Ge Do Sa To. However, the largest advantages of a driver-based method are the following: Compatibility - since you can act after the 3D API, and not on its level, you get compatibility with any API, including all versions of Direct X and Open GL. Input Independence – a lot of the hard parts both in writing Ge Do Sa To and in configuring it come with making mouse input work, since the OS knows it’s actually running at resolution X while the game thinks it’s running at Y. When operating on the driver level, OS and applications will be on the same page again, removing a major source of issues and need for implementation work. These are things which are far harder to achieve in Ge Do Sa To, and will likely never be possible on the same level. Nonetheless, Ge Do Sa To has evolved a lot from its initial role as just a downsampling tool, with Hu D-less screenshot taking, postprocessing, texture replacement and other features taking a major role. Also, it seems like, at least for now, it will remain the only option for larger than 2×2 downsampling."

"text": "As video displays become thinner, and more people move towards high-performance home theaters, manufacturers are often de-prioritizing the built in sound in their televisions. In other words, if you want anything other than small, quiet, tinny sound, you’ll need an external solution. For folks that don’t want a complex system that takes up a lot of real estate, a soundbar is a good option. “ Soundbar” is the generic name for a system with multiple driver arrays in a single enclosure. They are much wider than they are tall to provide a sense of stereo separation and to match the aesthetic of today’s widescreen TVs. They are often designed to be mounted on a tabletop or a wall, and many come with external, often wireless, subwoofers for full-range response. Typically, they are self-powered, meaning no external amplifier and a simpler setup. All seek to give you better sound in an inconspicuous package, and some take on the lofty goal of replicating the kind of surround sound that you would get from multiple, larger speakers spread around your room.

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Technology Computers Computer Hardware Computer Mouse What is mouse DPI? Flag What is mouse DPI? Answer by Leila62f Confidence votes 118DPI is dots per inch, it also relates directly to the mouse READING, along with the movement on screen. So that said, if you use a 1024x786 screen resolution, using a 1000DPI mouse, it would 'technically' take 1 inch to move from one side to the other. But it also relates to how many 'screen shots' the mouse takes per second. So higher DPI = more screen shots per 'movement cycle' which translates into a smoother movement of your mouse, and yields a higher speed. You can also reduce your movement speed (most commonly done in the game you are playing) to adjust the higher speed. So if you go from a 400 DPI mouse with 4 sensitivity, a 1600 DPI mouse and a 1 sensitivity would give you the same speed, but higher precision.34 people found this useful Was this answer useful?

Some go up to 2000 but 800 is okay for general use, not for really complicated graphic making or changing but for regular stuff. Mr Purrfect · 1 decade ago3 2 Comment Asker's rating DPI stands for Dots Per Inch. Higher DPI means higher sensitivity of your mouse.

"text": "Mouse DPI and Polling Rates Explained: Do They Matter for Gaming?by Chris Hoffman on June 8th, 2017Gaming mice are advertised with high DPIs and polling rates. But what do these specifications actually mean, and are higher values really useful? RELATED: How to Choose the Right Gaming Mouse These specifications generally matter most to gamers, which is why you tend to see the values prominently displayed in advertising and on packaging for gaming mice. You don’t need high precision or the fastest reaction time possible when browsing the web or working on a spreadsheet. And you don’t really even need to worry much about it unless you’re playing the kinds of games where a competitive edge matters. Arguably, though, a mouse with good precision also can be important to graphic artists and designers. So, let’s take a look at what these specifications mean. Optical Mice Basics There was a time when a computer mouse contained a rubber ball that rolled (and picked up dirt) as you moved it across a mouse pad. The movement of the ball was picked up by mechanical rollers that translated the mouse’s movement into something your computer could understand. Those days are over, and today we have optical and laser mice."

"text": "Tweet Key Difference: The optical mouse uses a light-emitting diode, while a laser mouse uses a laser in order to detect movement. A mouse is hardware that is required when trying to navigate on a desktop PC. However, many people these days also use a mouse on their laptops as it makes navigation easier. A mouse is a pointing device that works by detecting the movement on it and translates it to the device that it is connected to. The most common features of a mouse include two buttons and a scroll wheel which also acts as a third button. The mouse is often placed under one palm of the user, who then moves it to move the pointer that is reflected on the computer screen, while pressing the buttons on the mouse causes the pointer on the screen to click and perform some action. Optical Mouse and Laser Mouse are two different types of mouse that are used in computer. The original mouse was powered by a heavy rubber ball, which would connect to a small wheel inside the mouse. The user would move the mouse on the ball and the trackball would reflect the movement on the screen. However, with the release of the optical mouse, the mechanical mouse has become obsolete, with only few people using it."

These tricks span everything from hidden keyboard shortcuts and freeing up disk space to using the pen and connecting standard headsets. The information in this article should apply to both the original Surface Pro and Surface Pro 2. We tested this out with a Surface Pro 2, but the devices are fairly similar aside from the internals. Use Surface-Specific Keyboard Shortcuts If you have a Surface, you probably have a Type Cover or Touch Cover keyboard for it. These keyboards don’t have every single key you’ll find on larger keyboards. To make up for this, Microsoft has added a variety of Surface-specific keyboard shortcut combinations you can use. These aren’t actually printed on the keyboard itself, so you’ll need to know they exist before you can use them. Fn + Caps: Locks the F1-F12 keys as function keys. For example, the F1 and F2 keys normally toggle the keyboard backlight on or off."

In theory, if a mouse has 1600 DPI, then, if you move your mouse one inch (2.54 cm), the mouse cursor will move 1600 pixels. The higher the DPI, the more sensitive the mouse is. That is, you move the mouse even a tiny bit, the pointer will move a huge distance across the screen."

I have the BFG 8800GTS 640 OC2 graphics card. On the BFG site in the FAQ section it says that the maximum resolution for the DVI output is 1600x1200.

When I go to stores like Best Buy and look at their 24\"\" monitors their resolution is always set at 1920x1200 and I'm sure my graphics card is better than the ones they're using. Someone care to explain what I'm missing here? Thanks.23 answers Last reply Jul 19, 2009More about maximum resolution monitorpauldh Feb 17, 2008, 5:22 AMAre you sure that faq refers to your card? Probably not because 16x12 max is for single link DVI (older cards)."

Use your mouse to drag the little button to 11. Or check out who the manufacturer of the mouse is, go to their website and see if they have an updated driver with better mouse ballistics.

"text": "\"Photo Resolution How To Find The Resolution of a Digital Photo This article discusses how to find the digital photo resolution value in dots-per-inch and clarifies how computer screens and printers view the resolution of a digital photo on your computer. A good place to begin is to notice the simplest measurement for any photo whether it is digital or otherwist - the width times the height in inches. You should begin with this measure when considering the concept of resolution because if an image is physically small no other measure will make a lot of difference in your options for printing, enlarging, sharpening or displaying it. Once you know the physical size of your photo, then it is useful to know other details about it. Digital images such as graphics on a web page or photos from a digital camera are all made up of pixels -- “picture elements” -- tiny units of picture information. Every image on your computer is represented by a colored grid of pixels. Digital cameras records pixels, scanners convert images into pixels, photo-enlargement software like Imagener manipulates and adds pixels, a computer monitor displays pixels, and a printer prints pixels onto paper. Computers use pixels to measure instead of inches. Printers use inches to measure instead of pixels. This is important because what you see on the screen can be very different than what prints out on your printer."

[ Hardware] Materials - The internals are top of the line; you are getting OEM parts for other high end mice in this unit. There's no disputing the raw performance power of this mouse.

Canine hip dysplasia (CHD) is a troubling condition for people who own bigger breeds, such as German Shepherds, Labrador Retrievers, St. Bernards and Great Danes. While these larger breeds are more at risk for this disease, smaller dogs are not immune. But what exactly is hip dysplasia in dogs? Can you avoid it?

Something was off there though. My luteal phases are usually no longer than 15 days so I either O'd later than what my chart says or I had a bean that didn't stick.... anyways, as far as POAS goes, it can absolutely change in 24 hours... even 12 hours makes a difference, it just has to get enough h CG built up in the urine. Not saying you have to POAS though lol. You can always wait it out and see if AF shows on CD27 and then test again if she's a no show.

Along with an upcoming new version of the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), this landmark set of reforms is set to fundamentally alter the way UK businesses communicate with customers – and how they build and manage marketing databases. “The last Act from 1998 definitely needed updating,” says Andy Bridges, Data Quality and Governance Manager at The Read Group. “ But we’ve certainly got our work cut out over the next few years. ”After much urging by the UK in particular, the final text of the GDPR is less harsh that it promised to be during the long-drawn-out negotiations. The prime example is the moderation of the need for explicit consent. “I think we’ll need to see the final details and obtain guidance from bodies like the ICO and the DMA, but on the surface the changes don’t appear to be as draconian as first feared,” says Steve Mepham, Head of Technical Delivery at Celerity. In the final text, mandatory opt-in for marketing contact has been reduced to “unambiguous” consent with an added requirement for “clear affirmative action”. However, the experts think an opt-in policy is still the best way to go. “Personally I don’t think there’s much difference and it makes it hard to rely on anything other than opt in,” says Rosemary Smith, Director at data protection specialists Opt-4."

"text": "New or Strange Cravings Early pregnancy symptom The exact reason for pregnancy cravings is not known, but many speculate that the new or strange cravings pregnant women experience are actually the body's way of asking for a particular nutrient it may be lacking. The actual food craved is not necessarily what the body needs but may need something in the food. The cliché of craving pickles may be an indication your body needs more sodium, or the desire for a burger and french fries may be a need for protein, sodium or potassium. Studies also show that the high levels of hormones present during pregnancy can alter a women's sense of taste and smell. This change can also lead to food aversion.

About a week after you ovulate you may have another increase in estrogen, but this increase is not quite as high as what occurs during ovulation. Estrogen and progesterone levels increase to help thicken the lining of your uterus in preparation for implantation."

Some women feel cramping as early as implantation when the embryo attaches itself to the uterus (6-12 days after ovulation).

"text": "9 DPO: Nine Days Past Ovulation Symptoms Last updated on Nov 11, 2012by Dr. Christine Lee, MDRate this Article: Rating: 3.4/ 5 (18 votes cast)If you are 9 DPO and anxiously awaiting time to take a pregnancy test, here are some possible pregnancy symptoms you might be experiencing as early as nine days past ovulation. A really delicate subject to talk about, among so many others can be considered the multiple symptoms with which women deal with within the first nine days after the ovulation period. Usually, a woman that is confronted with this could be two or maybe even three weeks pregnant and could begin to experience early signs and symptoms of pregnancy. It is important to remember that not all women will experience the same symptoms, at the same time. But let’s see the most commonly seen symptoms as early as 9 DPO. Claim Your 20 Free Ovulation Tests – Click Here Breast changes One of the most common symptom women can expect to find 9 days past ovulation is the tenderness in the breast area. According to specialists, this is perfectly normal, but this is also one of the most common symptoms of pregnancy in the earliest stage. Some women can even experience a heavier and fuller chest, while others could just be confronted with a bit of tenderness. Still, there are many women who experience such symptoms before their missed period. So, in order not to mistake these for pregnancy symptoms, you should take a closer look at the darker part around the nipple, the areola, which could appear darker in case of pregnancy and larger, so you can use this as a focus point for you."

My problem would be that the egg only implants between 7 and 12 dpo so why did they test so early, you may not even have implanted yet....

Liquidity means fluidity: the firm has funds ready to flow for immediate spending needs. What are Liquidity Metrics? The term Liquidity refers to a firm's ability to meet near term financial obligations. Asking if the firm has sufficient liquidity is equivalent to asking if the firm has enough cash or other liquid resources to pay its bills—bills that are currently due or coming due soon. Water as a Metaphor for Funding In business, moving water serves as a metaphor for funds and funding. Cash payments into or out of the firm are cash flow events. A series of cash flow events is a cash flow stream. A firm can pour funding into a costly project and drain the supply of Working capital. Assets that can turn quickly into cash are liquid assets."

"text": "\"home → Insurance → Health Insurance → How Does a Dental Plan Organization (DPO) Work? Subscribe to news about Insurance How Does a Dental Plan Organization (DPO) Work?comments A dental plan organization ( DPO) organizes services with a network of doctors. In exchange for a premium paid to the DPO, a member of the DPO can use any of the DPO's network doctors at a reduced fee. This fee, often called a copay, is the only cost for the services administered in most cases. The DPO will pay all other costs at a reduced group rate. DPO Benefits A DPO offers patients a network of doctors who will administer services at a heavily reduced cost. Many dentists will not accept patients without some form of insurance, because they fear the patient will not pay a bill in full on his or her own. Dentists are not as concerned as doctors with these issues. However, it is still easier to get quality medical care if you are a member of an insurance plan. DPO Pitfalls Once a patient is a member of a particular DPO, that patient will not receive the same benefits if they go \"\"out of network\"\" to another dentist."

While they are just some simple calculations, they tell are story about how a company is doing. In the balance sheet assumptions section of the model, see below, we calculate each metric and then make assumptions about the forecast values. Days Sales Outstanding (DSO)DSO is a measure of how long it takes a company to collect on it’s accounts receivable. The higher the DSO, the slower the collecting – that’s a bad thing. The faster the company can collect, the more options for the company such as investing in more inventory to turn into sales. The formula for DSO is (Accounts Receivable / Credit Sales ) * 365In our model, DSO was too high, so we’ve brought it down to more reasonable levels. Days Payable Outstanding (DPO)DPO is a measure of how long it takes the company to pay it’s accounts payable. It’s the opposite of DSO – the longer it takes the company to pay, the more opportunity the company can use the money to generate sales. The formula for DPO is (Accounts Payable / COGS ) * 365In our model, the DPO historical average was 92 days."

The system is designed to reduce traffic congestion in the city, and supplement the overcrowded Mumbai Suburban Railway (colloquially called local trains) network. It is being built in three phases over a 15-year period, with overall completion expected in 2025. When completed, the core system will comprise eight high-capacity metro railway lines, spanning a total of 235 kilometres (146 mi) (24% underground, the rest elevated, with a minuscule portion built at-grade), and serviced by 200 stations. Line 1 of the Mumbai Metro system is operated by Metro One Operation Private Limited (MOOPL), a joint venture company formed between RATP Dev Transdev Asia (a 50:50 RATP Développement and Transdev joint venture) (70%) and Reliance Infrastructure (30%).

"text": "René Descartes First published Wed Dec 3, 2008; substantive revision Thu Jan 16, 2014René Descartes (1596–1650) was a creative mathematician of the first order, an important scientific thinker, and an original metaphysician. During the course of his life, he was a mathematician first, a natural scientist or “natural philosopher” second, and a metaphysician third. In mathematics, he developed the techniques that made possible algebraic (or “analytic”) geometry. In natural philosophy, he can be credited with several specific achievements: co-framer of the sine law of refraction, developer of an important empirical account of the rainbow, and proposer of a naturalistic account of the formation of the earth and planets (a precursor to the nebular hypothesis). More importantly, he offered a new vision of the natural world that continues to shape our thought today: a world of matter possessing a few fundamental properties and interacting according to a few universal laws. This natural world included an immaterial mind that, in human beings, was directly related to the brain; in this way, Descartes formulated the modern version of the mind–body problem. In metaphysics, he provided arguments for the existence of God, to show that the essence of matter is extension, and that the essence of mind is thought. Descartes claimed early on to possess a special method, which was variously exhibited in mathematics, natural philosophy, and metaphysics, and which, in the latter part of his life, included, or was supplemented by, a method of doubt. Descartes presented his results in major works published during his lifetime: the Discourse on the Method (in French, 1637), with its essays, the Dioptrics, Meteorology, and Geometry; the Meditations on First Philosophy (i.e., on metaphysics), with its Objections and Replies (in Latin, 1641, 2nd edn. 1642); the Principles of Philosophy, covering his metaphysics and much of his natural philosophy (in Latin, 1644); and the Passions of the Soul, on the emotions (in French, 1649)."

Banks provide debit cards with checking accounts, which allow payments to be made that are deducted directly from the account. Money is withdrawn instantaneously for transactions. Usually, there is no fee associated with debit card payments except for things like transactions in a foreign country or withdrawing from third-party ATMs, two things that are easily avoidable. On the other hand, a credit card is a form of unsecured loan, usually obtained and approved through an issuer. They are a type of revolving credit, one that does not require a fixed amount of payments. The opposite is installment credit such as home or auto loan, which contains fixed payments amortized. There is a ceiling amount called a credit limit that cannot be surpassed. If so, the credit card (CC) holder may have to pay a credit limit fee for overreaching their limit."

CMETracking Forms What is Formal CME? Formal CME was previously described in terms of \"\"contact hours,” because it consisted only of actual classes that one had to physically attend. In the current age of technology, however, many approved CME courses are available on line and in other electronic formats. The Department approves sponsors rather than approving individual courses. All courses given by those sponsors are accepted toward CME, and, of course, credit is only counted for classes from approved sponsors."

The office was first filled on 18 August 1945 when Sukarno was elected by acclamation by the Preparatory Committee for Indonesian Independence (PPKI) because according to the Provisional Act Section 3, \"\"President and the Vice President for the first time elected by PPKI.\"\" Also, the body responsible for the presidential elections, the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR), had not yet been formed. [ 2] On 16 October 1945, Vice-President Mohammad Hatta announced a vice-presidential decree which turned the Central National Committee of Indonesia (KNIP) equal status with that of the president. [ 3] On 11 November 1945, the KNIP made the decision to separate the role of Head of State with that of Head of Government. Although a new constitution had not been set up yet, Indonesia was now a de facto parliamentary democracy with the president as a ceremonial Head of State whose function was to ask the prime minister as the Head of the Government to form a new Cabinet. During the Indonesian National Revolution, both Sukarno and Hatta were captured by the Dutch in Yogyakarta on 18 December 1948."

"text": "6EAST ASIA AND PACIFICREGIONAL SETTINGCharacteristics of the region The East Asia and Pacific region1 contains 1836 million2 people (just over one-third of all the inhabitants of developing countries), of which 62 percent (1124 million) are directly involved in agriculture. Considerable variation exists among countries in terms of size and density of population, and the overall proportion living in rural areas. Most people are concentrated in just two countries: China (with 1278 million inhabitants or 68 percent of the region) and Indonesia (with 205 million inhabitants); respectively the first and fourth most populous countries in the world. Very high population densities occur in some rural areas, for example in Eastern China and the islands of Java and Bali in Indonesia. The total land area of the region is 1639 million ha. Forest cover is estimated at 380 million ha (23 percent of land area), of which 170 million ha are considered as dense forest. Cultivated land is estimated at 232 million ha (15 percent of land area) and the remainder consists of grasslands, wastelands, mountains, urban areas and waterbodies. Some 278 million people3 (15 percent of the total regional population) are living in extreme poverty, with daily incomes of less than US$1. A quarter of these impoverished people live in China, but significant numbers are found in almost all countries in the region. About 240 million people4 (13 percent of the total population) are undernourished."

The homeowners association president helps to run the organization and has similar powers to a corporation's CEO. He or she is responsible for daily administrative tasks and can order actions that are necessary to advance the goals of the association. Association Meetings The HOA president sets up association meetings and runs them. He meets with the board of directors and association members to establish important issues to include on the meeting's agenda.

"text": "René Descartes First published Wed Dec 3, 2008; substantive revision Thu Jan 16, 2014René Descartes (1596–1650) was a creative mathematician of the first order, an important scientific thinker, and an original metaphysician. During the course of his life, he was a mathematician first, a natural scientist or “natural philosopher” second, and a metaphysician third. In mathematics, he developed the techniques that made possible algebraic (or “analytic”) geometry. In natural philosophy, he can be credited with several specific achievements: co-framer of the sine law of refraction, developer of an important empirical account of the rainbow, and proposer of a naturalistic account of the formation of the earth and planets (a precursor to the nebular hypothesis). More importantly, he offered a new vision of the natural world that continues to shape our thought today: a world of matter possessing a few fundamental properties and interacting according to a few universal laws. This natural world included an immaterial mind that, in human beings, was directly related to the brain; in this way, Descartes formulated the modern version of the mind–body problem. In metaphysics, he provided arguments for the existence of God, to show that the essence of matter is extension, and that the essence of mind is thought. Descartes claimed early on to possess a special method, which was variously exhibited in mathematics, natural philosophy, and metaphysics, and which, in the latter part of his life, included, or was supplemented by, a method of doubt. Descartes presented his results in major works published during his lifetime: the Discourse on the Method (in French, 1637), with its essays, the Dioptrics, Meteorology, and Geometry; the Meditations on First Philosophy (i.e., on metaphysics), with its Objections and Replies (in Latin, 1641, 2nd edn. 1642); the Principles of Philosophy, covering his metaphysics and much of his natural philosophy (in Latin, 1644); and the Passions of the Soul, on the emotions (in French, 1649)."

Chapter 60, Code of Criminal Procedure (CCP), defines the Computerized Criminal History System (CCH) as the statewide repository of criminal history record information (CHRI) reported to DPS by local criminal justice agencies in Texas. CCH is one of two components of the Texas Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS). The other component of CJIS is the Corrections Tracking System (CTS) managed by the Department of Criminal Justice (DCJ). What Data Is Included In CCH? Chapter 60, CCP requires that information on arrests, prosecutions and the disposition of the case for persons arrested for a Class B misdemeanor or greater violation of Texas criminal statutes to be included in CCH; the statute identifies many of the actual data elements. In addition, though not required by statute, CCH traditionally includes limited supervision data reported to DPS by DCJ. Of special note: Chapter 60, CCP, creates an Incident Tracking Number (TRN) and Incident Tracking Number Suffix (TRS) as keys for linking charges from arrest through adjudication. Use of the TRN and TRS ensures that the outcome of each arrest charge can be tracked through the system. Establishing this capability requires each reporting entity to be diligent in its management of cases to include and pass along the TRN and TRS."

"text": "\"Texas DWI Blood Tests In most DWI arrests in the State of Texas, Breath Tests are used to measure the blood alcohol content ( BAC) of drivers who are suspected of driving intoxicated while operating a motor vehicle. However, it is increasingly the case where investigating police officers are utilizing blood tests as the measuring tool when attempting to ascertain what a certain \"\"BAC\"\" level is at the time the vehicle was operated. Moreover, many individuals consent to the taking of a breath test under the misconception that if they do not, the investigating police officers have the legal right to just obtain their blood whenever, and however, they want. This is NOT the case. Arresting police officers have to obtain a valid blood search warrant, and as a requirement, it has to stipulate to the exact reasons for what \"\" Probable Cause \"\" exists for the actual draw, and has to adhere to the strict standards for what a search warrant has to contain (including having been reviewed and signed by a magistrate or a judge with proper jurisdiction). Individuals have a constitutional right to be free of \"\"unreasonable searches and seizures\"\" - pursuant to the 4th amendment of the United States Constitution. Given all of this, it is imperative that you seek the knowledge and experience of an aggressive, skilled, and trained Texas DWI Attorney to assist with your case to help you mount the best possible defense. DWI Blood Tests In a perfect scenario, and if all procedures and protocol are followed, blood tests can be an accurate way when determining what a given \"\"BAC\"\" level is for an individual suspected of Driving While Intoxicated. Often, investigating officers utilize blood tests, as opposed to utilizing the Intoxilyzer 5000 for a breath test, to test for other illicit or intoxicating substances (other than through alcohol). Blood tests have become a larger part of DWI investigations over the past several years for a variety of reasons."

The ALR Program applies to individuals arrested for Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) or Boating While Intoxicated (BWI) and refuse to take or fail a blood or breath test. Individuals who refuse or fail a blood or breath test following an arrest for DWI may have their driver license suspended from 90 days to 2 years. Refusal or failure of this test will also result in an automatic one-year disqualification for individuals with a commercial driver license. ALR Process for DWI or BWIIf a law enforcement officer has reason to believe a driver is impaired, a set of field sobriety tests will be administered. If the driver performs poorly on the field sobriety tests then the driver will be arrested for DWI or BWI. The driver is asked to take a breath or blood test to measure his/her blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level. The driver is served a notice that his/her driver license will be suspended if he/she refuses to take or fails the field sobriety test. ( Registering a 0.08 BAC or greater is considered failing.)

"text": "DUI Defense Attorney in OKCIn Oklahoma, if a person drinks alcohol and then drives a motor vehicle, he or she will run the risk of criminal liability under four different statutes. Each statute has its own nuances, and often times individuals find themselves wrongfully categorized; it takes an experienced Oklahoma criminal defense DUI attorney to realize the differences between each crime and force the prosecution to prove guilt. Below is a quick glance at the five most common “drunk driving” laws in Oklahoma: Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol (DUI) in Oklahoma An individual can be convicted for a DUI if he or she operates a motor vehicle upon public roads, highways, streets, turnpikes, other public places or upon any private road, street, alley or lane which provides access to one or more single or multi-family dwellings, and: Has a blood or breath alcohol concentration, as defined in Section 756 of this title, of eight-hundredths (0.08) or more at the time of a test of such person's blood or breath administered within two (2) hours after the arrest of such person;Is under the influence of alcohol;Is under the influence of any intoxicating substance other than alcohol which may render such person incapable of safely driving or operating a motor vehicle; or Is under the combined influence of alcohol and any other intoxicating substance which may render such person incapable of safely driving or operating a motor vehicle. The first arrest for DUI will almost always be charged as a misdemeanor so long as no accident occurred. However, if the Defendant has prior convictions for DUI in a court of record, then he or she may be charged with felony DUI. Both misdemeanor and felony DUI can carry jail time, significant fines, driver’s license suspension, and other precautions such as interlock devices and electronic monitoring. Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol Under 21Liquor laws in Oklahoma are slightly different: the penalties for drinking and driving under the age of 21 are less severe than a regular DUI. A person under the age of 21 may be charged as such so long as the individual has a blood or breath alcohol concentration (BAC) of between .02 and .07. If this is the case, driving privileges may still be suspended, but the individual will most likely only face fines and community service. However, if the person’s BAC is .08 or over, the prosecutor may choose to charge the crime as a regular DUI."

Retention tags are linked to a retention policy, which is then applied to a mailbox. Let's look closer at these components: Retention tags Retention tags define and apply retention settings to messages and folders in a user's mailbox. Retention tags specify how long a message is kept and the action taken when the message reaches the specified retention age. When a message reaches its retention age, it's moved to the user's archive mailbox or it's deleted. Retention tags are linked to a retention policy. There are three types of retention tags: Default policy tag (DPT) The settings defined in the DPT apply to all items in a mailbox that don't have a retention tag already applied. A retention policy can have up to three DPTs linked to it: one DPT with a retention action of Move to Archive, one DTP with a retention action of Delete and Allow Recovery, and one DTP for a specific message class, such as voice mail."

Physical therapy involves using physical methods (e.g., manipulation, traction, massage, exercise, etc.) to assess, diagnose, and treat injury, disability or disease. The physical therapist works with patients to help improve their strength and mobility, relieve pain, and prevent or limit permanent physical impairment. They are experts of movement and function of the body and perform testing of muscle function, strength, joint flexibility, balance and coordination, posture, motor function, quality of life, and activities of daily living. After examination, physical therapists will design a health plan that involves short and long-term functional goals that will improve the patient's well-being. Physical therapists work in a variety of settings, including hospitals, clinics, and private practice and may specialize in areas such as sports medicine, orthopedics, neurologic rehabilitation, pediatrics, cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, women's health, and geriatrics. Additional areas of focused clinical practice include acute care, education and clinical education, health policy and administration, oncology, and research.

S. degree The field of physical therapy is very attractive field to pursue in academics because of the current need for practicing PT’s in all areas of the country. In the Fall of 2009, a major in Pre-Physical Therapy (Pre-PT) was created to combine the Exercise Science discipline with the required pre-requisite courses that are required for entry into Doctor of Physical Therapy programs. The Exercise Science discipline at UMHB is at the forefront of the profession with outstanding faculty, facilities, and laboratories, and Pre-PT majors will benefit from these resources for high quality instruction. Desirable outcomes for the individual expected to result from this major are a greater understanding of human performance and health from a physiological, anatomical, kinesiological, and functional standpoint. This, in addition to completion of all the math/lab science pre-requisite courses, will prepare each student for graduate school in PT. In addition, the EXSS department faculty strongly believes that the major courses in exercise science are the ideal fit for a potential PT student because it will integrate movement sciences, exercise testing and intervention, pathophysiology of disease, and the role of exercise in health, wellness, rehab, and performance. All Pre-PT majors will be carefully advised in their pursuit of bachelor’s degree, but it will be made clear to every Pre-PT major how important it is to have excellent grades in order to get into PT school. Admission to PT school is very competitive not only in Texas but all over the country. Students will be encouraged to aim for an overall GPA of 3.5-4.0 in their undergraduate studies in order to increase their chances of admittance. In addition, students will be advised to gain volunteer observation hours under a practicing PT in order to learn more about the day-to-day routine of a PT."

They offer cost-effective treatment that improves mobility and relieves pain, reduces the need for surgery and prescription drugs, and allows patients to participate in a recovery plan designed for their specific needs. In addition, physical therapists work with individuals to prevent the loss of mobility before it occurs by developing fitness and wellness programs for healthier and more active lifestyles. Physical therapists provide care for people in a variety of settings, including hospitals, private practices, outpatient clinics, home health agencies, schools, sports and fitness facilities, work settings and nursing homes. State licensure is required in each state in which a physical therapist practices. As essential participants in the health care delivery system, physical therapists assume leadership roles in rehabilitation, prevention, health maintenance and programs that promote health, wellness and fitness.

These practitioners contribute to society and the profession through practice, teaching, administration, and the discovery and application of new knowledge about physical therapy experiences of sufficient excellence and breadth to allow the acquisition and application of essential knowledge, skills, and behaviors as applied to the practice of physical therapy. Learning experiences are provided under the guidance and supervision of competent faculty, in both the classroom and the clinic. Physical Therapist Degree Professional (entry-level) physical therapist education programs in the United States only offer the Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) degree to all new students who enroll. The Master of Physical Therapy (MPT) and Master of Science in Physical Therapy (MSPT) degree s are no longer offered to any new students in the United States. To practice as a physical therapist in the US, you must earn a physical therapist degree from a CAPTE - accredited physical therapist education program and pass a state licensure exam. Curriculum The length of professional DPT programs is typically 3 years. Primary content areas in the curriculum may include, but are not limited to, biology/anatomy, cellular histology, physiology, exercise physiology, biomechanics, kinesiology, neuroscience, pharmacology, pathology, behavioral sciences, communication, ethics/values, management sciences, finance, sociology, clinical reasoning, evidence-based practice, cardiovascular and pulmonary, endocrine and metabolic, and musculoskeletal."

America and America’s children are in the midst of an epidemic of chronic disease and disability. Today, the Centers for Disease Control admits that one American child in 166 has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. 1 In 1970, autism affected four in 10,000 children. 2 By 1991, 5,000 autistic children were in the public school system; by 2001, that number had grown to 94,000. 3 Today, the CDC reports that 9 million American children under 18 have been diagnosed with asthma. 4 In 1979, asthma affected approximately 2 million children under age 14. 5Today, nearly 3 million children in public schools are classified as learning disabled. In 1976, there were 796,000 learning-disabled children in public schools. 6 Today, the CDC reports that 4 million children between the ages of 3 and 17 years have been diagnosed with ADHD."

They restore, maintain and promote overall fitness and health. Their patients include accident victims and people with disabling conditions such as low-back pain, arthritis, heart disease, fractures, head injuries and cerebral palsy, among others. Therapists examine patients’ medical histories and test and measure the patients’ strength, range of motion, balance and coordination, posture, muscle performance, respiration and motor function. They develop plans for treatment strategies and the anticipated outcomes. Treatments often includes exercise, especially for patients who have been immobilized or who lack flexibility, strength or endurance. Physical therapists encourage patients to use their muscles to increase their flexibility and range of motion. More advanced exercises focus on improving strength, balance, coordination and endurance. The goal is to improve how people function at work and at home."

Many of them really do remind me of little aquatic dogs with their attitudes and antics. Comments Contents General Information Species Specifics References S ome of the most popular fishes in the marine aquarium hobby are the surgeonfishes, all of which are in the Family Acanthuridae. Commonly known as tangs, many are very attractive, have unique personalities, and will also help keep your tank clean. However, when it comes to hardiness they're oftentimes sub-par, some can be quite aggressive, and some get too big for any but the largest home aquariums. Thus, it's important to know a little about any particular species of surgeonfish before making a decision to take one home. I'll fill you in on the group as a whole, and then give a bit of specific info about each of the species you're most likely to see offered for sale to help make things easier if you're thinking about getting one. If you want to see a whole lot of surgeonfishes in one tank stop by Atlantis Aquarium on Long Island and see Joe Yaiullo's gigantic reef. It's big enough to get away with keeping a mix of just about everything, and the most impressive indoor reef I've ever seen."

Because of different business traditions around the globe we created a 10part series titled “ Men’s Business Dress Around the Globe “. Indeed, business dress tends to differ from country to country, making it essential for those who tend to travel internationally to know exactly what they’re getting themselves into when traveling to a foreign country. This is especially true for those who plan on traveling to China at some point for business, as business dress in China tends to come with its own specific set of guidelines. By considering all of the following tips, you should have no issues putting together an ensemble that will make you not only fit in with others in China, but will connote professionalism to a large extent. Keep Suit Colors Subtle The importance in choosing the right colors for business meetings in China cannot be underestimated. Keeping suit colors on the subtle side is important, and should always be top of mind for those who are planning to attend a meeting in the country. Navy blue is popular, for example, as are other neutrals like charcoal and dark grey. Wearing a pastel pink shirt, on the other hand, will do nothing to help your case, and is likely to make you look as if you don’t fit in; you may even end up offending people. The more basic the colors you choose, the better off you’re likely to look when attending business meetings in China."

Some employers have more than half a dozen different colors in their coding system. Fortunately, most of the typically assigned shades are readily available. For example, ceil blue unisex tops and drawstring pants are a very common choice for hospital dress codes. Navy, white, burgundy and black are other typical options that you’ll never have trouble finding in stock. Why the Code? The goal of color coding is simple.

Years later, I got the chance to do so, first as a student pilot, and later in my career, as an US Air Force Instructor Pilot for two consecutive tours.

These paint chip colors are the closest match we can produce to the original colors and these colors are accepted by all MAFCA judges.

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Plain cigarette packaging)navigation search Plain cigarette packaging, as required in Australia since 2012: the packet is a \"\"drab brown\"\" colour, with the brand name printed in a standard font and size - no logos, colours or other branding are allowed. Plain tobacco packaging, also known as generic, neutral, standardised or homogeneous packaging, refers to packaging that requires the removal of all branding (colours, imagery, corporate logos and trademarks ), permitting manufacturers to print only the brand name in a mandated size, font and place on the pack, in addition to the health warnings and any other legally mandated information such as toxic constituents and tax-paid stamps. The appearance of all tobacco packs is standardised, including the colour of the pack. The removal of branding on cigarette packaging aims to deter smoking by removal of positive associations of brands (including design and symbol) with the consumption of tobacco. It also aims to remove an available avenue of brand advertising for cigarette companies. Australia was the first country in the world to introduce plain packaging, with all packets sold from 1 December 2012 being sold in logo-free, drab dark brown packaging. There has been opposition from tobacco companies to plain packaging laws, some of which have sued the Australian government. Since the Australian government won the court cases, several other countries have enacted plain packaging laws. Plain packaging was included in guidelines to the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO FCTC). In 2016, on World No Tobacco Day, held on 31 May, the World Health Organization (WHO) called on governments to get ready for plain packaging of tobacco products. ["

Zinc Plating is available in clear (silver color), blue, yellow, black and olive drab green. Trivalant chromates are used if requested. See salt spray article for comparing chromate colors. Cadmium Plating Cadmium plating is superior to zinc for corrosion protection. It is used in harsh environments and commonly used in aerospace applications."

"text": "Palindrome Definition of Palindrome The term palindrome is derived from two Greek words, palin, which means “again,” and dromos, which means “way,” or “direction.” It is defined as a number, a word, a sentence, a symbol, or even signs that can be read forward as well as backward, or in reverse order with the same effects and meanings. In English, Ben Jonson was the first writer to introduce this term in the middle of the 17th century. There are two types of palindrome: word-unit palindrome, and one-line palindrome. Some words, such as civic, radar, level, rotor, and noon are word-unit palindromes, while the sentence, “Was it a car or a cat I saw?” is an example of one-line palindrome. Categories of Palindrome Palindromes are of many Categories, depending upon the requirements of the subject. The most commonly used Categories of palindrome are given here: Character by Character Name Palindrome Word Palindrome Number Palindrome Line-unit Palindrome Word-unit Palindrome Examples of Palindrome in Literature There are many examples of Palindrome in prose, poetry, and criticism. Let us take a look at some examples: Example #1: The Funny Side of English (By O. A. Booty)“Lewd did I live & evil I did dwel. ”This is the first sentence using a palindrome that appeared in the English language, back in 1614."

UNRELIABLE NARRATION IN HEART OF DARKNESS, PALE FIRE AND FLAUBERT’S PARROT1 Defining the unreliable narrator started with Wayne Booth’s coining the term and since then has been attempted by a number of other scholars. However, the heterogeneity of this category makes it difficult to determine. The present article attempts to examine the characteristics of three narrators deemed unreliable in most critical studies, Marlow from Conrad’s Heart of Darkness, Kinbote from Nabokov’s Pale Fire and Braithwaite from Barnes’ Flaubert’s Parrot. The novels examined present three different types of narratives – an adventure tale, a commentary on a poem, and a biography of a famous writer – all of which are supposed to be fairly objective accounts of past circumstances. The ways in which their narrators present them, however, turn these into multi-layered narratives with several competing storylines in each. Analyzing narrative devices, the article seeks to determine how we could recognize a potential unreliable narrator and what features of narration could serve as criteria for placing a character in this category. The first-person narration unavoidably carries a certain amount of unreliability owing to the subjective perspective of the narrators and their personal motives for storytelling. The narrators’ ironic attitude in combination with humor invigorates their narratives, and since Marlow, Kinbote and Braithwaite are quite talented rhetoricians and appealing storytellers, their audiences follow them to the end of their inconclusive tales. Keywords: narratology, unreliable narrator, Joseph Conrad, Vladimir Nabokov, Julian Barnes 1. INTRODUCTION Do you know how poetry started?"

The children don't get along and try to break up the marriage by pitting the father's military style with the mother's permissive, freewheeling attitude. Although a bit too thin, YOURS, MINE AND OURS is a fun update of a true story, but brief, light foul language and an off-color joke require a caution for younger children. Review: YOURS, MINE AND OURS is a remake of the 1968 family movie classic starring Henry Fonda and Lucille Ball as two widowed people with 18 children between them. The 2005 remake stars Dennis Quaid as Admiral Frank Beardsley, a widower with eight kids. When he returns to New London, Conn. to head the Coast Guard Academy, he meets his old high-school flame, Helen North, played by Rene Russo. Frank and Helen pick up their old romance right away and get married on the spur of the moment, even though Helen has 10 children, six of which are foster children that she and her late husband adopted. Chaos ensues. Helen’s children chafe at the Admiral’s attempts to control the chaos and his children don’t like the other children’s messy lifestyle. The two groups decide to join forces and pit the Admiral’s strict ways against Helen’s permissive, free-wheeling style."

If you're like most parents, you feel that the single most significant investment you can make in your child is a good education. Selecting an elementary school or school district for your child can be an important decision. And if your child is already enrolled, a proper evaluation of his or her school can help reveal ways to enhance your child's learning experiences. How can you tell a good elementary school from a poor one? How do you identify the strengths and weaknesses of a particular institution? Over the past twenty years, I have visited scores of elementary schools all over the country, wearing two different hats: as a children's book author doing programs for kids and as an educational consultant working with teachers. I have seen great differences between schools. In this article I would like to share with you ways of looking over a school to assess its strengths and weaknesses, and questions to ask during a visit so you can better evaluate the job the school can do for your child. It's important to make a school visit when school is in session; a school full of kids has a personality that can give you an overall feeling."

The part is a motor-driven small blower wheel assembly. Despite the relative simplicity of the part, there are many different styles and variations. In a given setup, the inducer blower has desired carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide levels preselected and associated with a chosen temperature, cultivated from a mixed flow of exhaust fumes and ambient air. While the temperature of the mixed flow is measured, the flow of the ambient air is concurrently controlled, so as to maintain the mixed flow at the desired temperature. Find Local Contractors1.

There might be several variations… some good and some bad of course. Assuming, that you don’t know anything about water heater vent pipe subject, this is how the natural draft gas water heater venting should be installed: Water heater vent pipe draft hood On top of natural draft gas water heater, in its center section, right above the water heater vent, you should have a draft hood installed. It sits on 3-4 short legs, sometimes secured to the water heater top plate with screws, or ( depending on design) has its legs shaped like pins or hooks at the end, inserted into the holes in water heater top cover. For the gas water heater vent pipe system to operate properly its Draft Hood Has to be Centered over the vent hole, and its legs must be straight – any displaced or deformed draft hoods should be serviced / replaced if necessary.

"text": "\"Simultaneously Viable Causes of Action for Breach of Contract and Fraud By Leo K. Barnes Jr.* *Mr. Barnes, a member of Barnes & Barnes, P. C., can be reached at [email protected] One of the cornerstone pleading tenets of commercial practice is that a plaintiff may not pursue a fraud cause of action simultaneously with a breach of contract cause of action as the fraud cause of action, when it is premised upon the same facts and circumstances as the breach cause of action, is simply duplicative. Clark-Fitzpatrick, Inc. v. Long Island R. Co ., 70 N. Y.2d 382, at 389, 521 N. Y. S.2d 653, at 656 (1987) (a breach of contract is not to be considered a tort unless a legal duty independent of the contract itself has been violated). Merely alleging scienter in a cause of action to recover for breach of contract (unless the representations alleged to be false are collateral or extraneous to the agreement) does not convert a breach cause of action into one sounding in fraud. See Lo v. Curis, 29 A. D.3d 525, 815 N. Y. S.2d 131 (2nd Dep’t 2006). In that same vein, even an allegation that a defendant maintained an unexpressed intention not to perform a contract is per se insufficient to state a prima facie cause of action for fraud. See, e.g., Meehan v. Meehan, 227 A. D.2d 268, 642 N. Y. S.2d 664 (1st Dep’t 1996); Hudson v. Greenwich I Assocs ., 226 A. D.2d 119, 640 N. Y. S.2d 46 (1st Dep’t 1996); Hadari v. Leshchinsky, 242 A. D.2d 557, 662 N. Y. S.2d 85 (2nd Dep’t 1997). But it is equally well settled that \"\"a misrepresentation of material fact, which is collateral to the contract and serves as an inducement for the contract, is sufficient to sustain a cause of action alleging fraud\"\".

The contract will state what each party’s rights and responsibilities are in the event of a divorce to assets and liabilities. Commonly, the Statute of Frauds requires the agreement to be in writing and signed to be enforceable. Statute of Frauds : Originally an English statute passed in 1677, which has been adopted (in some form) in nearly all states. It requires that certain contracts be in writing, and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. Consideration: Something of value given by both parties to a contract that induces them to enter into the agreement to exchange mutual performances. Unconscionable: An agreement or a contract is said to be unconscionable if it appears grossly inequitable or unfair to one party; courts may deny enforcement of unfair or oppressive contracts. Uniform Premarital Agreements Act (“UPAA”): Uniform legislation designed to make the rules pertaining to prenuptial agreements consistent throughout the country.

[ 2]Contents [ hide ]1 Types of draft2 Importance/significance3 Drafting in steam locomotives4 See also5 References Types of draft [ edit]Drafts are produced by the rising combustion gases in the stack, flue, or by mechanical means. For example, a blower can be put into four categories: natural, induced, balanced, and forced. Natural draft: When air or flue gases flow due to the difference in density of the hot flue gases and cooler ambient gases. The difference in density creates a pressure differential that moves the hotter flue gases into the cooler surroundings. [ 2]Forced draft: When air or flue gases are maintained above atmospheric pressure. Normally it is done with the help of a forced draft fan. [ 2]Induced draft: When air or flue gases flow under the effect of a gradually decreasing pressure below atmospheric pressure. In this case, the system is said to operate under induced draft."

The metal and mold are then cooled, and the metal part (the casting) is extracted. Casting is most often used for making complex shapes that would be difficult or uneconomical to make by other methods.

Traditional techniques include lost-wax casting (which may be further divided into centrifugal casting and vacuum assist direct pour casting), plaster mold casting and sand casting. The modern casting process is subdivided into two main categories: expendable and non-expendable casting.

"text": "\"What is a power of attorney? A power of attorney is a contract between the \"\"principal\"\" and the \"\"attorney in fact,\"\" usually called the \"\"agent.\"\" The durable power of attorney is the most important estate-planning tool the attorney has, allowing the principal to appoint the person of his choice to make important financial and health-care decisions. It also allows the principal to give guidance in the exercise of those decisions. Why is a power of attorney so important? A will only becomes effective when the person making it dies, and a trust only applies to the person's property; but a power of attorney is effective while the principal is living and often avoids court involvement in the family's affairs. Without a power of attorney, it may be necessary to seek a court appointment to pay bills or manage property. Even more importantly, guardianship may be necessary to protect an incapacitated patient from bad treatment in a health- care facility. An incompetent patient is under the complete control of a hospital or nursing home administrator. Family members and significant others can express their desires, but without guardianship or power of attorney they have little authority to enforce their decisions."

Cooling towers may either use the evaporation of water to remove process heat and cool the working fluid to near the wet-bulb air temperature or, in the case of closed circuit dry cooling towers, rely solely on air to cool the working fluid to near the dry-bulb air temperature. Common applications include cooling the circulating water used in oil refineries, petrochemical and other chemical plants, thermal power stations and HVAC systems for cooling buildings. The classification is based on the type of air induction into the tower: the main types of cooling towers are natural draft and induced draft cooling towers. Cooling towers vary in size from small roof-top units to very large hyperboloid structures (as in the adjacent image) that can be up to 200 metres (660 ft) tall and 100 metres (330 ft) in diameter, or rectangular structures that can be over 40 metres (130 ft) tall and 80 metres (260 ft) long. The hyperboloid cooling towers are often associated with nuclear power plants, [1] although they are also used in some coal-fired plants and to some extent in some large chemical and other industrial plants. Although these large towers are very prominent, the vast majority of cooling towers are much smaller, including many units installed on or near buildings to discharge heat from air conditioning.

"text": "Mood Disorders and Alcohol/Drug Use By Richard K. Ries, M. D. ~ 34 min read Pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 All The term mood describes a pervasive and sustained emotional state that may affect all aspects of an individual’s life and perceptions. Mood disorders are pathologically elevated or depressed disturbances of mood, and include full or partial episodes of depression or mania. A mood episode (for example, major depression) is a cluster of symptoms that occur together for a discrete period of time. A major depressive episode involves a depression in mood with an accompanying loss of pleasure or indifference to most activities, most of the time for at least 2 weeks. These deviations from normal mood may include significant changes in energy, sleep patterns, concentration, and weight. Symptoms may include psychomotor agitation or retardation, persistent feelings of worthlessness or inappropriate guilt, or recurrent thoughts of death or suicide. The diagnosis of major depression requires evidence of one or more major depressive episodes occurring without clearly being related to another psychiatric, alcohol or other drug (AOD) use, or medical disorder. Major depression is subclassified as major depressive disorder, single episode and recurrent. There are nine symptoms of a major depressive episode listed in the DSM-IV draft, and diagnosis of this disorder requires at least five of them to be present for 2 weeks. Dysthymia is a chronic mood disturbance characterized by a loss of interest or pleasure in most activities of daily life but not meeting the full criteria for a major depressive episode."

The streets of Newark are eerily empty at lunchtime. Most are glued to televisions to watch a live news conference held inside the city's downtown basketball arena. With the rapid clickclickclick of shutters from photographers' cameras, he walks in with his familiar swagger-filled strut. Dressed in a splendid gray suit, he's accompanied by his wife, Vanessa, his children and family. After 20 seasons and arguably the greatest basketball career the New York metropolitan area has ever seen, Kobe Bryant is ready to announce his retirement as the greatest New Jersey Net of all time. With his former coaches John Calipari and Phil Jackson, and ex-teammates such as Jayson Williams, Sam Cassell, Kendall Gill and Shaquille O'Neal -- OK, maybe not Shaq -- in attendance, Bryant finishes a Derek Jeteresque run underneath the championship banners he brought to an arena he helped build in downtown Newark.

( This is incorrect! ) Heat Exchanger Cut-Away View Residential 80% furnaces made in the last 30 years with air-conditioning coils on the discharge (outlet) of the furnace do NOT allow carbon monoxide to enter the indoor air stream. Period!Any person that insists that the gasses from inside the heat exchanger are going to get into the home’s air stream because of a hole or crack is simply repeating what they heard someone else say. They’ve never tested this and they don’t understand how air flows through a furnace. Their information is not based on fact. If combustion gasses could move through a crack in a heat exchanger to the indoor air stream, it would defy the laws of physics. ( See the cautionary note about 90% units. ) My concern is that everyone concentrates on the heat exchanger in the furnace and ignores or overlooks the circumstances in a home that actually cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Those issues have NOTHING to do with the heat exchanger, cracked or otherwise."

The metal and mold are then cooled, and the metal part (the casting) is extracted. Casting is most often used for making complex shapes that would be difficult or uneconomical to make by other methods. [ 1]Casting processes have been known for thousands of years, and have been widely used for sculpture (especially in bronze ), jewellery in precious metals, and weapons and tools. Traditional techniques include lost-wax casting (which may be further divided into centrifugal casting and vacuum assist direct pour casting), plaster mold casting and sand casting. The modern casting process is subdivided into two main categories: expendable and non-expendable casting. It is further broken down by the mold material, such as sand or metal, and pouring method, such as gravity, vacuum, or low pressure.

Many of you cribbed parts of it from other conservators' contracts, adding your own touches. Those of you with sufficient resources or neuroses consulted a lawyer. After you finalized your contract, you undoubtedly stopped thinking about why you need one, and why some of those legalistic sounding clauses even have to be there. The previous article provides a good discussion of all the basic terms that should be included in a conservator's contract. My intent is to review why it's important to have a written contract and the practical meaning of those legalistic clauses, from the viewpoint of a litigator. A \"\"contract,\"\" we learned the first day of law school, is an agreement that is legally enforceable. After that, it got more complicated. [ Note: Although weighty treatises have been written on what makes an agreement legally enforceable, one way to look at it is that the parties must agree on sufficiently definite terms with some evidence that they meant it to be enforceable (for business contracts, this is usually an agreement to pay money)."

Flue gases are produced when coal, oil, natural gas, wood or any other fuel is combusted in an industrial furnace, a power plant's steam-generating boiler, or other large combustion device. Flue gas is usually composed of carbon dioxide (CO 2) and water vapor as well as nitrogen and excess oxygen remaining from the intake combustion air. It also contains a small percentage of pollutants such as particulate matter, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides. The flue gas stacks are often quite tall, up to 400 metres (1300 feet) or more, so as to disperse the exhaust pollutants over a greater area and thereby reduce the concentration of the pollutants to the levels required by governmental environmental policy and environmental regulation. When the flue gases are exhausted from stoves, ovens, fireplaces, or other small sources within residential abodes, restaurants, hotels, or other public buildings and small commercial enterprises, their flue gas stacks are referred to as chimneys. Contents1 History2 Flue-gas stack draft3 Flue-gas flow-rate induced by the draft4 Stack design5 Other items of interest6 See also7 References8 External links History [ edit]The first industrial chimneys were built in the mid-17th century when it was first understood how they could improve the combustion of a furnace by increasing the draft of air into the combustion zone. [ 2] As such, they played an important part in the development of reverberatory furnaces and a coal-based metallurgical industry, one of the key sectors of the early Industrial Revolution. Most 18th-century industrial chimneys (now commonly referred to as flue gas stacks) were built into the walls of the furnace much like a domestic chimney. The first free-standing industrial chimneys were probably those erected at the end of the long condensing flues associated with smelting lead."

After the expiration of the statutory period, unless a legal exception applies, the injured person loses the right to file a lawsuit seeking money damages or other relief. Although people often speak of the statute of limitations,in fact there are many statutes which apply limitations periods to civil actions. Sometimes it can be difficult to keep track of the various statutes and their exceptions. Thus it is a very good idea for somebody who is concerned about losing their right to sue as a result of the expiration of the statutory limitations period to consult with a qualified lawyer, who can help determine which statute applies, and help preserve the right to recover damages. Back to top Limitations Periods for Legal Actions The following periods represent a small sample of the statutory limitations periods in Virginia. Professional Malpractice: Most medical malpractice actions must be commenced within two years of the date of the act or omission giving rise to the claim. For medical malpractice actions involving the presence of a foreign object inside the body, any claim must be filed within one year from the date the object was or reasonably should have been discovered, but no such action may be filed more than ten years after the date the object was inserted. Personal Injury: 2 years. Fraud: 2 years."

[ 1] The term originated in the 1980s. [ 2]Today, originalism is popular among some political conservatives in the U. S., and it is most prominently associated with Justice Clarence Thomas, Justice Neil Gorsuch, the late Justice Antonin Scalia, and the late judge Robert Bork. Some liberals, such as late Justice Hugo Black and jurist Akhil Amar, have also subscribed to the theory. [ 3]Originalism is an umbrella term for interpretative methods that hold to the \"\"fixation thesis\"\", the notion that an utterance's semantic content is fixed at the time it is uttered. [ 4] Originalists seek one of two alternative sources of meaning: The original intent theory, which holds that interpretation of a written constitution is (or should be) consistent with what was meant by those who drafted and ratified it. This is currently a minority view among originalists. The original meaning theory, which is closely related to textualism, is the view that interpretation of a written constitution or law should be based on what reasonable persons living at the time of its adoption would have understood the ordinary meaning of the text to be. Most originalists, such as Scalia, are associated with this view."

Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution states:“No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President;”So the issue with Obama, Cruz and Rubio is not “where” they were born, but whether or not they are Article 2 natural born Citizens, as is required by the US Constitution. Instinctively, for any investigative reporter the first step would be to confirm the definition of the term “natural born Citizen”, that the Founder’s used when incorporating the term into the presidential eligibility clause (which I have meticulously done below). Many of us have done the research, now millions of Americans are learning the truth. More and more people are waking up, because they have finally taken the time to actually LOOK at the evidence. The earliest mention of “natural born Citizen”, by two of the most instrumental Founders, is in the Constitutional Drafts."

"text": "ARTICLE DETAILSeptember 27, 2010Beginning October 1 – Maryland’s New Power Of Attorney Document Packs A Strong Punch For years, Powers of Attorney got no respect. Banks, brokers and insurance companies could turn away the agent who was presenting the document for almost any reason and refuse to honor the agent’s authority under the document. But for those who obtain a “new and improved” Power of Attorney document in Maryland, acceptance should come much easier. This, thanks to new legislation which completely re-writes Maryland’s Power of Attorney laws. Until now using a Power of Attorney has been a “hit or miss” proposition. Many times the person presenting the document, now called the “agent”, is turned away when trying to conduct a financial transaction for his principal. This changes on October 1, when Maryland joins eight other states that have implemented their version of the Uniform Power of Attorney Act (the “Act”). This Act purportedly gives new teeth to the document. Estate planning attorneys will tell you that a properly drafted Power of Attorney can be more important than a Will. If a person dies without a Will, the laws of the state prescribe how the decedent’s assets should be distributed according to the laws of intestacy; usually to the next closest family members."

"text": "By Sir Michael Wood Member of the International Law Commission Senior Fellow of the Lauterpacht Centre for International Law, University of Cambridgeالعربية 中文 English Français Русский Español The International Law Commission is a subsidiary organ of the United Nations General Assembly, whose object is the promotion of the progressive development of international law and its codification. The Commission is governed by a Statute annexed to General Assembly resolution 174 (II) of 21 November 1947 (as amended). In addition to setting out the structure and working methods of the Commission, the Statute is of interest for what it tells us about the divided attitudes, in 1947, towards the codification and progressive development of international law. Notwithstanding the divisions of the time – perhaps even because of the somewhat awkward compromises in the text, the Statute of the International Law Commission has proven to be a far-sighted and flexible document, which has stood the test of time. The movement to codify international law had its origins in ad hoc conferences (e.g., Vienna 1814-1815, Paris 1856, The Hague 1899/1907, London Naval Conference 1908-1909) and private ventures (Institut de Droit International and International Law Association, both established in 1873; Harvard Research in International Law, published 1929-1939). To a degree stimulated by the need for clarity in the law if the jurisdiction of the newly established Permanent Court of International Justice were to be accepted, the League of Nations engaged in more systematic intergovernmental efforts, culminating in the work of the Committee of Experts for the Progressive Codification of International Law (1924) and the 1930 Hague Codification Conference and its Preparatory Committee, but these were not a great success. In 1931, the League Assembly adopted a resolution on the procedure of codification, the underlying theme of which was strengthening the role of Governments in the codification process. Many of its ideas were included in the Statute of the Commission. Article 13, paragraph 1 (a), of the Charter of the United Nations provides that the Assembly “shall initiate studies and make recommendations for the purpose of … encouraging the progressive development of international law and its codification.” The General Assembly moved swiftly to implement this provision."

"text": "\"Limited Liability Company The Limited Liability Company (LLC), a hybrid of the partnership and the corporation, has become a popular legal alternative for business owners. Now available in almost all states, the LLC combines the benefits of limited liability and pass-through taxation, much like an S corporation. But the LLC's legal structure is much looser, allowing many companies that find S corporation status too restrictive to take advantage of its benefits. Small business owners are taking advantage of the LLC because it is easier to set up and maintain than a corporation. Because the LLC is a fairly new option in the United States (it first became available in Wyoming in 1977, but most other states did not follow suit until the 1990s), the laws governing this business form are largely uninter-preted by court cases. In addition, each state has its own statutes concerning LLCs. Therefore, learning and keeping up with the laws that govern LLCs, which are still being fine-tuned, can be a tricky business. When considering the LLC option, consulting knowledgeable and up-to-date legal and tax advisors is a must.

After all, first-year legal writing classes in law school often concentrate on that skill. Moot court competitions do too. Compared to other kinds of legal work, appellate briefs seem tidy and self-contained, with a predictable structure. So they are what law schools teach. Once in practice, regardless of law school background, trial lawyers sometimes seem to believe that no special talent or training is needed to write a good brief on appeal. The idea appears to be that what works before a jury or is acceptable to a busy trial judge should be more than adequate for an appellate court. Despite what law students should learn and despite what lawyers think they know, appeal after appeal is lost, or at least made harder to win, because of ineffective briefs. Why? In part, because many lawyers write appellate briefs infrequently."

That’s also true for related questions such as, “We never increased our rent payment after extending its term and now, five years later, our landlord wants all the back rent – do we have to pay?” Or, to, “We’ve been paying the wrong rent, can we get our money back?

He applied for and received statutory accident benefits from Economical Mutual Insurance Company (“Economical”), payable under the Schedule. Mr. Pries applied for a number of statutory accident benefits, including an income replacement benefit. For some time this benefit was stopped by Economical as it believed that he no longer met the criteria for its payment. On the receipt of further information Economical reinstated payment of an income replacement benefit. In the meantime however, Mr. Pries had applied to the Canada Pension Plan for a disability benefit under that regime. On March 3, 2010, Mr. Pries was informed that his application for CPP was accepted and received a lump sum payment from CPP retroactive to the date when CPP considered entitlement began. The payment reflected CPP benefits payable between November 23, 2008 to May 2, 2010. Mr. Pries notified Economical of the benefit that he had received from CPP and on March 15, 2010 Economical formally provided notice to Mr. Pries of its intention to demand repayment of benefits by Mr. Pries as a result of what it qualified as an overpayment situation brought about by the receipt of the lump sum from CPP."

Naturally curious, I could not resist buying one so I could find out more about it. One of the great things about not shopping for food at mainstream supermarkets (one of my real food resolutions for 2012) is discovering new foods. So today’s blog post is to talk about one of the new foods I’ve discovered – dragon fruit. I have discovered that dragon fruit, also known as Pitaya, is a part of the cactus family and native to Mexico and Central and South America. It is also grown in Southeast Asia, Israel and Vietnam. In Australia, the growth of the fruit has expanded since being introduced in the 1980’s. So what does dragon fruit look like? Dragon fruit comes in three colours: two have pink skin, but the flesh is either white, or a magnetic, deep pinky red."

Releasing in spring, Dragons & Yum Yums will be a lip-smackingly tart pale ale clocking in at 6.5% ABV. This intensely tropical yet subtlety bitter ale is brewed with a combination of dragonfruit, yumberry, passionfruit, pear juice and black carrot juice providing an explosion of fruit in every sip. The Flaming Lips perform at FPSF Music Fest in 2010 © TODD SPOTH PHOTOGRAPHY, LLCAcclaimed for their elaborate, over-the-top live shows, the Flaming Lips sound contains lush, multi-layered, psychedelic rock arrangements, while lyrically their compositions show elements of space rock, including unusual song and album titles. “ The Flaming Lips are one of the most innovative and collaborative bands of all time and Dogfish shares a similarly playful and adventurous point of view,” says Sam Calagione, CEO and founder of Dogfish Head Craft Brewery. “ Their art is a full-on otherworldly sensory experience and we strive to create that same intense sensational experience for craft beer drinkers in the development of our liquid art.” Good tunes and great beer are at the heart of Dogfish as the brewery composed a musically inspired series of brews with artists like Miles Davis, Deltron 3030, The Grateful Dead, Pearl Jam and Guided by Voices. “"

It should be called “ Loong ”, not dragon. Loong symbolizes Unity, the foremost value of Chinese civilization. Unity brings more strength and power to Chinese people, so the representative of the people/nation, the emperor, called himself the “Real loong, the Son of the heaven/真龙天子”。To effectively answer your question, it is necessary for me to clarify the differences between the “dragon” of the West and the loong of China”. These two are completely different animals, however were mixed up by the translation. Below are the 3 major differences of these two: Chinese LONG West dragon1 Mammal, has body hair; Reptile, without body hair2 Without wing, Has wing3 Dear's horns with 2 branching; Cattle‘s horn, no branch The most ridiculous part is: the West dragon and Chinese dragon are 2 completely different animals: the west dragon is dinosaur with wings, it's a reptile; while Chinese dragon is a mammal, because its has body hair-a lion's head with mane. Chinese dragon has been evolved for a few thousands years, although nobody know how exactly it started, the legend goes like this: in ancient time there were many tribes on China's land. Every tribe used an animal as its symbolic animals. Using animal as a symbol is quite common through human history.

"text": "Scorch, the mascot for the Adirondack Flames, died in a blaze of, er, glory, last weekend before appearing in his first game for the team. Seeing as he killed a fire fighter, perhaps it was all for the best that he was banished before his career began. More than anything, I want to meet the guy (or woman) who stood up in the planning meetings for the Adirondack Flames this summer and said the following: “Hey everyone, I have a great idea. Let’s give our new mascot a name that conjures up recollections of a fire that almost destroyed our whole town once.” ( Slow clap follows. ) Suffice it to say, it has been an inauspicious debut for Calgary’s American League farm team in Glens Falls, New York. At its first news conference, the dais was adorned with a banner that had Calgary’s flaming ‘C’, then Adirondack’s flaming ‘A’, followed by the ‘C’ then the ‘A’. Which seems innocuous enough until you realize that it spells, C-A-C-A. Flaming C-A-C-A, no less. On the ice, the Flames are 0-2-0 and have been outscored 11-2, so they’ve got that going for them. And in their first game of the season, resident meathead Trevor Gillies got himself suspended for 12 games with an act as senseless as you’re going to see on the ice this season."

The Question Is “Does Lemon Juice Burn Fat?”What Does The Research Say? After searching Pub Med, the research archives of the National Library of Medicine and the National Institute of Health, I found nothing. However, several studies have been used to promote the Lemon Juice Diet. One being from the Journal of the American College of Nutrition which found that the pectin in Lemon Peels help reduce hunger pangs for up to four hours. Pectin is also found in other fruits such as apples. Call me crazy but eating an organic apple is more appetizing than chomping on a lemon peel. The other study came from researchers at Arizona State University. The researchers suggested that people who eat more vitamin C rich fruits and vegetables tend to digest foods and lose weight more easily than people who do not consume as much vitamin C rich produce. Since this study is not exclusive to lemons, they are reaching a bit."

"text": "\"Monk Fruit Sweetener and Lakanto Review Monk fruit sweetener is a natural sugar substitute made from the super sweet luo han guo fruit. Native to parts of Southern China, mainly the Guangxi and Guangdong mountains, it was originally named after Buddhist monk populations who have used it in these regions since the 13th century. The fruit contains a substance called mogrosides that give it a very sweet taste but with no calories or effects on blood sugar because of the way it is metabolized in the body. The inside of the round green fruit is seldom consumed fresh as it is known to develop a ripe rotten taste soon after harvest. Monk fruits are consequently dried and used whole or ground into a light brown powder, similar to the consistency of lucuma fruit powder. The dried fruit and powders, however, contain sulfuric compounds and can have a somewhat bitter astringent taste which has limited use as an all-purpose sugar additive in recipes. Luo han guo fruit is therefore commonly prepared as concentrated extracts which removes some of these undesirable flavors as well as concentrates the sweet qualities. What is Monk Fruit Sweetener or Luo Han Guo? Luo han guo, Siraitia grosvenorii (or Momordica grosvenorii ), is a perennial vine from the gourd family. The fruit is between 1-3 inches (5-7 cm) in diameter with a yellow-green gourd-like shell and vertical light colored striations moving up and down the fruit."

I mean, most mornings, my breakfast consists of a smoothie, but if I have a little extra time in the morning, it’s almost always a smoothie bowl that I turn to. I’ve even shared a few on the blog in the past: my Super Mango Pineapple Açai Bowl, Cacao Berry Bliss Bowl, and the Dragon Fruit Smoothie Bowl ). Dressing up a smoothie with some crunchy granola and fresh fruit absolutely makes my day. Every spoonful with the variety of textures coming from the clusters of granola, the luscious smoothie, and the chunks of fresh fruit is, in my book, perfection. While on most smoothie bowl days, I’ll usually just dress up one of my go-to green smoothies, sometimes I like to pull out all the stops and make an extra special smoothie bowl: The Açai Bowl. Ever since our trip to Maui when we had açai bowls for breakfast every day, the special bowl holds special memories for us so when I make them for Chris and I, it’s always a romantic little breakfast. It’s not just the sentimental aspect of them that makes me love them so. Açai puree adds an extra tartness, an extra brightness, an extra zinginess to the smoothie. It like when you add salt to caramel."

Daily street markets bring the fresh fruits to the general public,an outlet America has replaced with supermarkets. Sales of the fruits provide a livelihood for farmers, transporters, and vendors of the region. The staple equator fruit is the banana.

"text": "How To Train a Bearded Dragon To Eat Vegetablesby Tee Riddle Providing vegetables and fruits as a daily part of a bearded dragon’s diet is very important for their health. The percentage of fresh vegetables and fruit they receive increases as they mature. A baby bearded dragon should receive approximately 60% – 80% proteins from insects, and around 20% – 40% vegetables and fruits. Juveniles should receive about 50% insects and 50% vegetables and fruits. An adult should receive about 25% – 30% insects while the vegetables and fruits increase to around 70% – 75%. Although a bearded dragon’s intake of plant matter increases as they age it can be difficult to get them to eat the plant matter offered. Once they become accustomed to eating crickets, roaches, wax worms, and other insect prey, they tend to not want any vegetables or fruit. This can become more and more of an issue as the bearded dragon ages. Here are a few tips to help train your bearded dragon to eat vegetables and fruits. Begin Offering Vegetables and Fruits At a Young Age If you acquire your bearded dragon as a baby, it is very important to begin offering vegetables and fruits right away."

A funky addition and curious conversation piece to our garden is the Dragon Fruit (Thanh Long in Vietnamese). Also called Pitaya or Strawberry Pear, this fruit is one of several varieties of cactus plant fruits prized in Southeast Asia. The numerous, sprawling branches of this fleshy cacti reach out and climb on to anything that crosses it’s path. Just like a dragon or serpent snaking it’s way in all different directions, the spiny plant itself is really easy to grow in warm, hot , sunny areas. Propagation just takes one strong cutting planted in good soil and you can have a whole farm of plants within two years. We grow the red/pink skinned, white center variety. The thin skin can be peeled, revealing a white center filled with small, black , edible seeds. Eating the fruit and interior seeds has a texture similar to that of kiwi fruit."

"text": "How To Train a Bearded Dragon To Eat Vegetablesby Tee Riddle Providing vegetables and fruits as a daily part of a bearded dragon’s diet is very important for their health. The percentage of fresh vegetables and fruit they receive increases as they mature. A baby bearded dragon should receive approximately 60% – 80% proteins from insects, and around 20% – 40% vegetables and fruits. Juveniles should receive about 50% insects and 50% vegetables and fruits. An adult should receive about 25% – 30% insects while the vegetables and fruits increase to around 70% – 75%. Although a bearded dragon’s intake of plant matter increases as they age it can be difficult to get them to eat the plant matter offered. Once they become accustomed to eating crickets, roaches, wax worms, and other insect prey, they tend to not want any vegetables or fruit. This can become more and more of an issue as the bearded dragon ages. Here are a few tips to help train your bearded dragon to eat vegetables and fruits. Begin Offering Vegetables and Fruits At a Young Age If you acquire your bearded dragon as a baby, it is very important to begin offering vegetables and fruits right away."

"text": "Exotic Fruit Weird or Good? Taste Test: 9 Exotic Fruits What does a mamey sapote taste like? Now you know!Alastair Bland November 9, 2011We love the local food movement. We love local cheeses, veggies and fruits — and the closer to our homes they were grown, the better they taste. But let’s be reasonable: We’ve got ocean liners and cargo jets crisscrossing our planet in fleets, skipping over lines of latitude eight per hour and bridging the continents, and we’d might as well see what exotic goods these gas-guzzlers are packing in their baggage holds. Ethnic produce markets – especially those of Asian ownership or clientele – are great places to find a wide and splendid variety of exotic fruits. You may encounter the so-beautiful-it-hurts-to-cut-it-up dragon fruit; the waxy-skinned, sweet-sour star fruit; the magnificent, pearly fleshed white sapote; the queenly mangosteen; the unearthly citrus fruit shaped like a jester’s hat and often called “goblin fingers”; and so many more wild and wonderful treasures. We recently made an Asian market fruit-hunting foray, and though we found some sorry absences – no white sapotes or mangosteens, for instance – we still arranged a colorful tasting lineup of rare or strange fruits, each sweet, big, fragrant, or beautiful enough to awe – and all grown deliciously far away. Prickly pear: Favored for its cool and succulent flesh, this Mexican cactus fruit is riddled with thousands of microscopic spines that can cripple the hand that grabs it. By tossing the fruits about in blankets and even using fire to sear away these nasty fibers, handling the pears becomes possible, and most that are sold in markets are harmless."

"text": "Home » Trees How to Fertilize Dragon Fruit By Rochelle French; Updated September 21, 2017Dragon fruit, also known as pitaya, is a native of Latin America and is now being cultivated in Asian countries, primarily for the nutritional content of the fruit. Dragon fruit are eaten in salads, made into drinks, and the color is used to dye food. The dragon fruit plant is a climbing cactus and is best suited for propagation in dry areas. The long white flowers, which bloom only at night (the plant is also called night-blooming cereus), produce fleshy, scaled fruit. Dragon fruit can be grown either as an ornamental or to bear fruit. Ornamental dragon fruit does not require fertilization. However, dragon fruit grown for food requires frequent fertilization to produce a healthy crop. The root system of the dragon fruit sits close to the surface and quickly absorbs existing nutrition in the soil. Correct fertilizing can lead to a bountiful harvest of dragon fruit. Apply 3 oz."

These friendly Australian reptiles are yellow or tan, and they get their name from the way they can flare the skin at their throats. Bearded Dragon Care Facts Bearded dragons are not high maintenance pets, but they do require regular care and the right setup. Habitat If you plan to keep a bearded dragon as a pet, you'll need a 10 to 15 gallon aquarium for juveniles and at least a 55 to 60 gallon aquarium for adults. Wire cages are not recommended because they don't hold the heat in the way an aquarium does. However, don't place the aquarium in natural sunlight as it can trap heat and cause your pet to die due to unnaturally high temperatures. Basic Environment: Their environment should include flat-bottom rocks, branches and a box or flowerpot to hide in. This provides a place to bask, climb and get away from it all. Lighting: Bearded dragons need full spectrum lighting with UVB. Flooring: The bottom of the aquarium should be covered in pet use-approved indoor/outdoor carpet, newspaper or fine playground sand."

In the absence of proper nutrition bearded dragons can suffer from a range of problems, including obesity and metabolic bone disease (MBD) whereby they are unable to absorb suitable calcium from their diet. This can lead to weaker bones, swollen joints or, in extreme cases, malformed skeletons or paralysis. Fortunately we know more than ever before about bearded dragon diets so its now possible to provide exactly what your beardie needs by following a few simple rules. Contents [ show]Introduction to Bearded Dragon Diets Bearded dragons are omnivores; this means they eat both meat and plants. In captivity this generally means a combination of live insects and an assortment of vegetables. Leafy vegetables offer arguably the best source of plant-based nutrition, though this can be supplemented in moderation with fruits, herbs and a number of wild and garden plants. What is perhaps most interesting in terms of a bearded dragon’s diet is that it changes over the lifetime of the lizard. That is to say that while the main constituents of the diet remain stable, the ratio of insects to plant matter changes as a bearded dragon matures."

Naturally curious, I could not resist buying one so I could find out more about it. One of the great things about not shopping for food at mainstream supermarkets (one of my real food resolutions for 2012) is discovering new foods. So today’s blog post is to talk about one of the new foods I’ve discovered – dragon fruit. I have discovered that dragon fruit, also known as Pitaya, is a part of the cactus family and native to Mexico and Central and South America. It is also grown in Southeast Asia, Israel and Vietnam. In Australia, the growth of the fruit has expanded since being introduced in the 1980’s. So what does dragon fruit look like?

"text": "\"Miracle Berry, The Berry That Makes Things Taste Sweetwithout the calories. The miracle berry is now being called the berry that makes things sweet. Although technically this is not true, it does not make things sweet at all. What it actually does is make you believe that things taste sweet. It does this by the magic ingredient which is called miraculin. The miraculin is a glycoprotein that coats your tongue, blocking out certain taste bud receptors. Most of the food which is perceived as changing to sweet actually already has sugar content, whether that be sucrose, lactose, glucose or fructose or acetic acids, its just a case of the bitterness or sourness having a stronger tang than the sugar, therefore your tongue tends not to notice the sugar - hence there is no taste of sweetness. So after taking the miracle berry either as the fresh fruit or in a product such as miracle berry tablets and then noticing that a variety of certain foods taste sweeter then its no wonder the miracle berry is being called the berry that makes things taste sweet. The actual amount of foods that change taste is very small, probably less than 1%, so the statement that is makes things taste sweet is untrue, actually it should be called the berry that makes some things taste sweet!The 'some things\"\" or some foods are limited to foods which already contain sugar and are bitter, sour or acidic. An example of this is of course the lemon which is the favourite of most taste trippers and the quickest way to get the wow factor after eating the miracle berry."

A small apple has the right amount of carbs for a snack eat the whole apple because the skin is good for you as well supplying you with added fiber. Berries are excellent, but portion is key.

I have compiled what I feel is the most important information of 20 popular grape varieties that you'll likely come across on people's wine racks. The information for each grape includes some basic history about the origin of the grape, information on its organoleptic qualities, some recommended food pairings, and an expert opinion on what sets that particular grape type apart from the rest. Why don't you sit down, open your favorite bottle of wine, and take some time to take it all in? The Wine Grapes Cabernet Franc Cabernet Sauvignon Carmenere Chardonnay Gewurztraminer Grenache Malbec Merlot Muscat Ottonel Nebbiolo Pinotage Pinot Grigio / Gris Pinot Noir Riesling Sauvignon Blanc Semillon Shiraz / Syrah Tempranillo Viognier Zinfandel To Top Cabernet Franc Introduction Cabernet Franc is one of the major black grape varieties grown world wide. It is mainly grown to blend with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot in the Bordeaux style. In some cases, like the Loire Valley’s Chinon, it is made into its own wine."

"text": "6 August 14, 2012 Food Preservation by Erica How To Make Pectin-Free Jam: Ditch The Box and Increase The Creativity In Your Preserves Do you need pectin to make jam? I used to think so. I followed the recipe on the inside of the pectin box slavishly for 7 years before I broke free of the pectin bonds. Every year, my strawberry jam tasted exactly like the strawberry jam of everyone else who wore the Sure-Jell shackles. The jam was never bad, but it was never really mine, either. Before, jam making was about following rigorous and strict recipes, adding in a ton of sugar to “ensure a good set,” skimming diligently to remove foam and crossing my fingers while timing that one minute of “hard rolling boil” down to the second. That’s what was required by the pectin box master and I was terrified to change a thing lest I ruin an entire batch of jam. Now, I’m a liberated pectin-free jam maker, and I’d never go back. When I make preserves now, I work with my fruit, tasting and adjusting things like sugar and spice based on fruit ripeness and variety and juiciness and what sounds good. I reduce water out of my preserves to get the consistency and depth of flavor I’m looking for."

"text": "\"There really is no difference between dried plums and prunes in most cases — it's just a new name for a classic product. Prunes have become associated with achieving regularity in bowel movements, and in some cases, the have a reputation as a food frequently served to the elderly in convalescent or rest homes. They have also been marketed specifically for their use as a “health food” for older people. In order to appeal to a younger market, the California Prune Board began to pressure the Food and Drug Administration to change the name of prunes to dried plums. The name change became official in 2000, so any products marketed with this name in the US are actually prunes with a new name. They are usually of the European type, called the d’Agen plum, the European or the Italian plum. Plums of the Japanese type are usually eaten fresh, but if they are dried, they are dried plums, not prunes. This has nearly always been the case. The dried prunes from Japanese plums are quite different in taste from what most people in the US think of as plums. They are usually not partially reconstituted, as are prunes, after the drying process."

Papaya is quite a common fruit, especially to those who live in tropical countries. It is native to Mexico and South America. It can also be found in many parts of Africa and Southeast Asia. Unfortunately not everyone has heard of it. As a matter of fact, many people still wonder what papaya tastes like. What makes papaya unique is that it can actually be eaten ripe and unripe. This simply means that papaya can be quite versatile in the kitchen and that it will have two sets of flavors. When used ripe, papaya is treated as a fruit."

"text": "\"Monk Fruit Sweetener and Lakanto Review Monk fruit sweetener is a natural sugar substitute made from the super sweet luo han guo fruit. Native to parts of Southern China, mainly the Guangxi and Guangdong mountains, it was originally named after Buddhist monk populations who have used it in these regions since the 13th century. The fruit contains a substance called mogrosides that give it a very sweet taste but with no calories or effects on blood sugar because of the way it is metabolized in the body. The inside of the round green fruit is seldom consumed fresh as it is known to develop a ripe rotten taste soon after harvest. Monk fruits are consequently dried and used whole or ground into a light brown powder, similar to the consistency of lucuma fruit powder. The dried fruit and powders, however, contain sulfuric compounds and can have a somewhat bitter astringent taste which has limited use as an all-purpose sugar additive in recipes. Luo han guo fruit is therefore commonly prepared as concentrated extracts which removes some of these undesirable flavors as well as concentrates the sweet qualities. What is Monk Fruit Sweetener or Luo Han Guo? Luo han guo, Siraitia grosvenorii (or Momordica grosvenorii ), is a perennial vine from the gourd family. The fruit is between 1-3 inches (5-7 cm) in diameter with a yellow-green gourd-like shell and vertical light colored striations moving up and down the fruit."

"text": "The Soursop Fruit, how does it taste? Soursop Fruit Many people have asked me how is the taste of Soursop, for those who have not ever been able to taste it. Some of you have no idea what to expect, and after some diligent googling you will find lots of information about it and its uses (juice, smoothies, ice cream and the fruit’s benefits to human health). First step, when it is fully ripe we need to start scraping out the pulp and removing its seeds (black ones), I would like to say that it is an exceptionally easy fruit to prepare so what you need to do is to give it a try. Its fragrance is tropical fruity, musky, and nice and its taste is definitely sour but sweet enough. On the other hand, there are some others very sweet. It tastes kind of like a combination of pineapple and banana or papaya. Also If you’re into mixed drinks, try blending some frozen soursop with bacardi and blue curacao for a great daiquiri. The non-alcoholics out there might prefer simply mixing it with soda water. The juice can also be used as a topping on its own, mixed into cheesecakes and jellies or simply eaten frozen after blending as a sorbet."

Contents1 History2 Composition3 Cocktails4 Poem5 Sponsorships5.1 Sports5.2 Music6 References7 External links History The term Jägermeister was introduced in Germany in 1934 in the new Reichsjagdgesetz (Imperial Hunting Laws). The term was applied to senior foresters and gamekeepers in the German civil service, while the topmost gamekeeper was Reichsjägermeister Hermann Göring. Thus, when the liquor was introduced in 1935, the name was already familiar to Germans and was occasionally called \"\"Göring-Schnapps\"\". Curt Mast, the original distiller of Jägermeister, was an enthusiastic hunter. [ 2] Translated literally, Jägermeister means \"\"hunt-master\"\", combining Jäger (hunter) and Meister (master, in the sense of an accomplished professional). A possible free translation might be gamekeeper. Jägermeister was originally developed as a digestif and as a cough remedy.

"text": "The Liqueur Guide January 13, 2015 / 12 Comments / in Cocktails, Savoir Vivre, Spirits, Wine / by J. A. Shapira I’m often asked what the definition of a “liqueur” is, since many people have difficulty understanding how there seems to be such a wide range of spirits that fit within the very same category. To put it simply, a liqueur is a distilled spirit that’s flavored with some variation or form of herbs and spices, cream, fruit, flowers or nuts and finished with a sweetener such as corn syrup or sugar. In most cases, liqueurs are rather sweet, however, there are also some that are dry or tart. Unlike most alcoholic beverages, liqueurs are rarely aged, although some do receiving a resting period to allow their flavor profiles to marry. In this feature, we’re going to focus on some of the most popular liqueurs on the global market and explore which ones are crucial for a well stocked home bar. Liquor Vs. Liqueur In past years, the differences between a liquor and a liqueur were easily separated. Vodka, gin, whisky, rum were all liquors, whereas chartreuse, kahlua, benedictine, baileys and schnapps were all liqueurs. Today, with many of the traditional spirits such as vodka being flavored, it has become rather difficult for many to distinguish between the two. The rule of thumb to separate the two is that liqueurs are sweet and syrupy for the most part, whereas liquors are not."

Drambuie is one of several whiskey-based liqueurs. It’s a kissing cousin to other classics like Southern Comfort or Irish Mist, but each starts with a different type of whiskey. Or in this case, whisky, since Drambuie is based on Scotch. The recipe has never been revealed, but a few things are known. The Scotch is sweetened with heather honey and then flavored with herbs and spices."

"text": "Liqueurs come in every color and flavor you could imagine. They are the backbone of flavor for many of our favorite cocktails. Larry Washburn / Getty Images A liqueur, or cordial, is a sweetened distilled spirit. Liqueurs are just as important as the base liquors in the bar, and some liqueurs are used more often than others. These are the drink ingredients that contribute more flavor than alcohol, as many are lower than 40% alcohol by volume (80 proof). That is not always the case, however, because some liqueurs like Cointreau and Grand Marnier are 80 proof and others like Southern Comfort can vary from 42-100 proof. If vodka, gin, whiskey, and the like are the rock stars of the cocktail, then liqueurs are the backup singers. Cordial Has a Few Meanings Cordial and liqueur are often used interchangeably to described these sweet spirits, but cordial does have a few other meanings in the drink world. Cordial is often used to describe sweeter distilled spirits that are very dessert-like. You might see 'cordial' on labels for chocolate or cream spirits."

"text": "Low Calorie Alcoholic Drinks – Drink Wisely Without Gaining Weight By Naomi Tupper, RD 15 Comments Researched Based Article Alcohol is relatively high in calories with 7 calories per gram. When you increase your alcohol intake, you consume more calories and this can be a problem. So, how can we enjoy a few drinks without piling on the pounds? Which is the lowest calorie alcoholic drink? The lowest calorie alcoholic drink is vodka with 64 calories. Other low calorie drinks are: light beer 110 calories, red wine 125 calories and the classic spirits i.e. tequila, rum, whiskey and gin with 65 calories per ounce. Calories in alcohol How many calories are you drinking? Alcohol itself is relatively high in calories with 7 calories per gram, second only to fat, which provides 9 calories of energy per gram. The other macronutrients, protein and carbohydrate both have only 4 calories per gram. So, for a standard drink consisting of 10 grams of alcohol, you are consuming 70 calories from alcohol alone before considering the other sources of calories in most drinks."

"text": "\"Rusty Nail cocktail (made with Drambuie Scotch whisky liqueur). Getty Images/Maximilian Stock Ltd. Drambuie is a sweet, gold colored liqueur with a Scotch whiskey base that is accented with the flavors of Scottish heather honey, herbs, and spices. The whiskey is a blend of malts from the Speyside and Highland regions of Scotland. It has a superbly smooth taste, notably marked with spiced honey. This liqueur should be considered essential to a bar stock, especially if one enjoys whiskey cocktails. It is stocked with liquor stores and bars worldwide, making it readily available. The most popular Drambuie drink is by far the Rusty Nail in which it is paired with Scotch whiskey. There are also no true substitutes for Drambuie's signature taste, though the closest option is Glayva. Drambuie can also be served on the rocks or with either ginger ale or ginger beer and makes a wonderful dessert drink. The History of Drambuie The story of Drambuie dates back to around 1745 when Prince Charles Edward Stewart reportedly passed on the 'secret' formula for his personal elixir when fleeing Scotland after the Battle of Culloden."

"text": "Why the Atkins Diet and Alcohol Don’t Mix As a rule, the Atkins diet and alcohol do not mix. Any type of alcohol is strictly prohibited in the 2-week induction phase, and certain types of liquor should be avoided in later phases as well. Low carbohydrate diets discourage sipping those tasty Margaritas because alcohol gives you carbs and calories, and no nutritional value. However, you want to enjoy the things you’ve always liked and that includes taking a libation or two when you go out. Understand that Booze Stops Weight Loss The body is constantly burning energy in the order of carbs as the first fuel then fat as the back up source. When alcohol is introduced, the body uses it before everything. Keep in mind what Dr. Atkins had to say about the Atkins diet and alcohol:“Here’s the problem with all alcoholic beverages, and the reason I recommend refraining from alcohol consumption on the Atkins diet. Alcohol, whenever taken in, is the first fuel to burn. While that is going on, your body will not burn fat. This does not stop the weight loss it simply postpones it."

For years, I avoided anything made with the stuff because I don't want my cocktails to remind me of sick children. Then one day I ordered a Singapore Sling without really knowing what was in it. When I found out that cherry liqueur played a big part in making this drink so good, I realized that maybe I had stereotyped all cherry liqueurs because of one that was particularly bad (and probably cheap). Prejudice erased, I soon started splashing a little cherry liqueur in everything from Manhattans to Sangria. I went a little nuts at the roadside cherry stands this summer, so once I saw I had more cherries than my freezer and I knew what to do with, I knew it was time to experiment with my own cherry liqueur.

Contents [ hide ]1 History2 Impact3 Application4 Limitations5 See also6 References History [ edit]This section is empty. You can help by adding to it. ( June 2008)Impact [ edit]This deduction is designed to reduce the consequences of alleged triple taxation. [ 2] Otherwise, corporate profits would be taxed to the corporation that earned them, then to the corporate shareholder, and then to the individual shareholder. While Congress allowed for double taxation on corporations, it did not intend a triple - and potentially infinitely-tiered - tax to apply to corporate profits at every level of their distribution. The dividends-received deduction complements the consolidated return regulations, which allow affiliated corporations to file a single consolidated return for U. S. federal income tax purposes. Application [ edit]Generally, if a corporation receives dividends from another corporation, it is entitled to a deduction of 70 percent of the dividend it receives. [ 3] If the corporation receiving the dividend owns 20 percent or more, then the amount of the deduction increases to 80 percent. [ 4] If, on the other hand, the corporation receiving the dividend owns more than 80 percent of the distributing corporation, it is allowed to deduct 100 percent of the dividend it receives. ["

In large, IPv6 was a key of this technology. It is maintained by the Wi Media Alliance and (as of 2009) the current revision is 1.0, which was approved in 2005. [ 1] Wireless USB is sometimes abbreviated as \"\"WUSB\"\", although the USB Implementers Forum discouraged this practice and instead prefers to call the technology Certified Wireless USB to distinguish it from the competing UWB standard. Wireless USB was based on the (now defunct) Wi Media Alliance 's Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) common radio platform, which is capable of sending 480 Mbit/s at distances up to 3 metres (9.8 ft) and 110 Mbit/s at up to 10 metres (33 ft). It was designed to operate in the 3.1 to 10.6 GHz frequency range, although local regulatory policies may restrict the legal operating range in some countries.

The definition of Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) matches the capabilities and transfer rates of USB very closely (from 1.5 and 12 Mbit/s up to 480 Mbit/s for USB 2.0) and makes for a natural wireless extension of USB in the short range (3 meters, up to 10 at a reduced rate of 110 Mbit/s). Still, there is no physical bus to power the peripherals any more, and the absence of wires means that some properties that are usually taken for granted in USB systems need to be achieved by other means. The goal of the specification is to preserve the functional model of USB, based on intelligent hosts and behaviorally simple devices, while allowing it to operate in a wireless environment and keeping security on a par with the levels offered by traditional wired systems."

"text": "What Is the Dividends Received Deduction? The tax breaks that corporations get on dividends are different from what individuals get. Image source: Getty Images. The taxation of dividends is one of the most complicated aspects of the U. S. tax system. For individuals, some types of dividends get taxed at different rates than others. But corporations are sometimes eligible for even bigger write-offs on dividends they receive, thanks to the dividends received deduction. The dividends received deduction, or DRD for short, allows corporations to deduct a percentage of their dividend income. That percentage can vary, however, depending on whether the corporation meets certain tests. Below, we'll take a closer look at the dividends received deduction and its requirements. How the dividends received deduction works The DRD guidelines are laid out in Section 243 of the Internal Revenue Code."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Media Agnostic USB)navigation search The Certified Wireless USB logo Wireless USB is a short-range, high-bandwidth wireless radio communication protocol created by the Wireless USB Promoter Group which intends to further increase the availability of general USB-based technologies. In large, IPv6 was a key of this technology. It is maintained by the Wi Media Alliance and (as of 2009) the current revision is 1.0, which was approved in 2005. [ 1] Wireless USB is sometimes abbreviated as \"\"WUSB\"\", although the USB Implementers Forum discouraged this practice and instead prefers to call the technology Certified Wireless USB to distinguish it from the competing UWB standard. Wireless USB was based on the (now defunct) Wi Media Alliance 's Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) common radio platform, which is capable of sending 480 Mbit/s at distances up to 3 metres (9.8 ft) and 110 Mbit/s at up to 10 metres (33 ft). It was designed to operate in the 3.1 to 10.6 GHz frequency range, although local regulatory policies may restrict the legal operating range in some countries. Contents [ hide ]1 Overview2 Uses3 Development4 Protocol architecture4.1 Changes to USB5 Data transport architecture6 Compatibility options for older hardware7 Connectivity8 Relation to ultra-wideband9 Wireless USB vs. 60 GHz10 Comparison of digital RF systems11 Security12 Competitors12.1 Media Agnostic USB13 See also14 References15 External links Overview [ edit]The rationale for this specification is the overwhelming success of USB as a base for peripherals everywhere: cited reasons include extreme ease of use and low cost, which allow the existence of a ubiquitous bidirectional, fast port architecture. The definition of Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) matches the capabilities and transfer rates of USB very closely (from 1.5 and 12 Mbit/s up to 480 Mbit/s for USB 2.0) and makes for a natural wireless extension of USB in the short range (3 meters, up to 10 at a reduced rate of 110 Mbit/s). Still, there is no physical bus to power the peripherals any more, and the absence of wires means that some properties that are usually taken for granted in USB systems need to be achieved by other means. The goal of the specification is to preserve the functional model of USB, based on intelligent hosts and behaviorally simple devices, while allowing it to operate in a wireless environment and keeping security on a par with the levels offered by traditional wired systems."

These are a few of my favorite things.\"\" -Maldis Contents [ show]Bio Edit Maldis was a malevolent, powerful supernatural being who had reached a non-corporeal form and possessed considerable spiritual powers. Maldis gained strength from the life forces of others' pain and death and as a result used his abilities to encourage negative emotions such as fear, anger, hate, and pain in his victims. His formidable abilities allowed him to enslave entire planets, such as Liko 's. After dominating them for some time, the spirits of the downtrodden were less filling to him and Maldis would seek out \"\"fresh meat\"\". One such time entailed his encounter with the crew of Moya, who were visiting the commerce planet where Maldis ruled. He tricked Moya's human crew member John Crichton into following him to his complex and then trapped the spirit from John's body. In order to generate the negative emotions he fed upon, Maldis used his powers to kidnap another spirit he knew could fulfill the role: Captain Crais. Face to face at last, Crais tried to kill Crichton multiple times in spite of John's attempts to talk to the man who had been chasing him for months. John's efforts were sabotaged multiple times by Maldis, until Crais was in an unreachable frenzy."

"text": "TECH 03/29/2013 02:32 pm ET Updated Dec 06, 2017FPSRussia Raid: Kyle Myers’s Property Searched By Federal Agents By Hunter Stuart The Georgia residence of Kyle Myers, maker of the popular weapons and explosives You Tube series FPSRussia, was raided by 40 agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) on Tuesday, according to the Athens Banner-Herald. The federal agents, accompanied by members of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, also conducted a search of Myers’s father’s nearby farm, where FPSRussia is sometimes filmed, reports northeast Georgia radio station WHLR. Myers’s FPSRussia series features him demonstrating advanced weaponry, including machine guns, tanks and drones. But what was the justification for the raid? ATF spokesman Richard Coes told the Banner-Herald: “The claim is that [Myers] was using explosives and getting paid for it via You Tube. ”Myers has used the substance Tannerite in his videos. While the powder explosive is legal in the U. S., Business Insider points out that the manufacturing of explosives for business purposes is illegal without a federal license. Under You Tube’s partner program, amateur video producers can earn money from the site if their videos are watched enough times. Myers’s You Tube channel, which has garnered over half a billion views, is part of the site’s partner program. Seeming to contradict the ATF’s statement, Franklin County Sheriff Stevie Thomas told WHLR that Tuesday’s raids were in connection with the investigation into the suspected murder of Myers’s former business partner, Keith Ratliff, who was found dead from a single gunshot to the head in January in the office of FPS Industries, the weapons testing business he owned."

"text": "Developmental dyslexia, also known simply as dyslexia, is a common reading disorder. Often diagnosed in children, developmental dyslexia is characterized by the brain’s inability to properly process symbols and letters, making reading difficult. There is no known cure for dyslexia. Treatment for developmental dyslexia generally requires the individual to work closely with his or her teachers and, in some cases, a reading tutor. A diagnosis of dyslexia is generally not made until a child demonstrates difficulty in school. Considering there is no definitive test for developmental dyslexia, the key to a diagnosis is ruling out other conditions that may impair one’s ability to learn. An extensive medical history of the child is often considered along with other factors, including his or her social skills, academic ability, and where he or she is developmentally. A vision exam is almost always performed to rule out any vision issues that could interfere with the child’s ability to process information he or she reads. Children with dyslexia demonstrate difficulty recognizing and making sense of letters, words, and sentences. Some can exhibit signs of delayed or impaired language development, including difficulty speaking."

As a C corporation's equity interest in a dividend-paying company increases, so does the amount of the DRD as shown below: Percent Ownership Dividends Received Deduction Implied Tax Rate on Dividends*< 20% 70% 10.5% [= 35% × (1-70%)]20 - 80% 80% 7.0% [= 35% × (1-80%)]> 80% 100% 0.0% [= 35% × (1-100%)]* Assumes a 35% tax rate for the corporation receiving the dividend. The DRD is designed to soften the blow of triple taxation on corporate dividends. Triple taxation occurs because the company paying the dividend does so with after-tax money. The C corporation receiving the dividend is then taxed on the dividend. Finally, if the receiving C corporation pays out the dividend to its shareholders, the shareholders are taxed yet again. There are a few limitations to the DRD: The DRD is only available to C corporations; not LLCs, S corporations, or individuals. There is a 45-day minimum holding period for common stock. The DRD does not apply to preferred stock. If a corporation is entitled to a 70% DRD, it can deduct dividends only up to 70% of its taxable income."

"text": "Dream Dictionary » H » Hair Hair To dream of hair covering your face suggests an emotional anxiety in the company of others and particularly in intimate relationships. Looking out from behind a veil of hair in a dream shows that you may be keeping your true feelings hidden as you have a deep fear of rejection in close relationships. To dream of hair falling out indicates extreme fears may be running unchecked in your emotional body. There is a strong message here to examine your inner world before stress manifests itself from uneasiness. If the loss of hair in a dream is random and in clumps, a fear of death is lurking and needs to be addressed so as to improve your general demeanor. Dreaming of watching someone else lose their hair may be a reminder to forgive a member of your immediate family and attempt to build bridges instead of waiting for the other party to make the first move. To dream of waking up covered in hair suggests a need to come to terms with your body and begin to appreciate all it does for you. This is a message of self-love and that you can find the courage needed to make an all important connection with yourself. Dreaming of hair in your mouth implies confusion related to responsibility. It is possible that you may be abdicating responsibility, but more likely you are receiving mixed messages and consequently taking on responsibility that doesn't belong to you."

It is indicative of your honourable attitudes. If your hair is knotted or tangled, then it has symbolic significance of uncertainty in a relationship or confusion in your life. Tangled or knotted hair also may indicate the inability to think clearly. Are you in current conditions of your life to think straight? Dreaming that you are cutting your hair, suggest that you are experiencing a loss in sexuality, vitality and strength. You may feel that someone is trying to limit you by blocking some important aspects of your personality. Alternatively, you may be reshaping your thinking or ambitions and eliminating unwanted thoughts. Maybe you also have some bad habit and you want to censor yourself from this behaviour."

The way Halsey manages to describe someone as \"\"devoid of color\"\" whilst making them out to be the most beautiful thing she's ever experienced is incredible. She acknowledges his flaws and the sadness that is his emptiness, yet still finds him to be a masterpiece. I don't think she's putting him on a pedestal - I think she truly does see him in a way no one else does, including himself. It's heartbreaking. I cry each time I hear this song. ( Side note: Matty inspired some of her best songs, I swear.) fadedmemories14 on July 20, 2015 Link No Replies Log in to reply0 General Comment this is honestly such an amazing song! Halsey even admitted herself that she didnt think she was this amazing singer and that she was more into the writing aspect of this project, but as long as she sings with emotion and writes things that are true that thats all the matters skyeverest on July 21, 2015 Link No Replies Log in to reply0 General Comment This is my absolute favorite song of hers. She's describing someone as a color, specifically blue throughout the song, mostly because blue is a cool, deep, passionate color, and then later refers to him as red, probably because red is fiery and deep."

"text": "\"Dream Dictionary Cutting Hair Cutting hair and having your hair cut can both mean very symbolic things and the meanings are far removed from one another. If you have your hair cut it usually has something to do with loss or with change. You are changing the way that you look and leaving a part of yourself behind and in the past. When you are cutting someone else’s hair, you are acting with precision and you are also exercising total control over the look of another person. What do these have to do with dream interpretation? Just keep reading in order to get your answer to that. If you have a dream in which you are having your hair cut it means that you are going through a lot of stuff and you are ready to move on from it entirely. Usually when you have a dream like this it is in the aftermath of having just gone through something really traumatic. By cutting hair of your own you are trying to change yourself a bit on the outside as a reflection of how you’ve been changed by the event on the inside. And if that wasn’t clear before, that’s what this type of change is mostly about."

More Getting a new haircut To dream about having a new haircut is symbolic of fresh starts or new beginnings. You will be given a new lease in something which would allow you to pick yourself up from a failed attempt once again. Just like in the past, your entire family would be the only people who would stay behind you and support you in this endeavor. It would prove that no one else in this world would be willing to give you that many chances except your family, and you should be grateful for every opportunity.

If you cut yourself in the dream, you are being your own worst enemy. A dream of cutting something signifies a broken relationship or severed connection. Hair Long hair in dreams represents strength and beauty. If your hair turns white in a dream, you have outgrown old ideas and you are ready to learn new things.

The tongue is a symbol of the male gender organ. Psychologically: By the tongue the speech is possible to the person.

Kidnapped by Mother Gothel when she was still an infant, Rapunzel had been raised and locked away in a tall tower up until her 18th birthday, when she is 'rescued' by Flynn Rider. However, she does view Mother Gothel as her maternal mother despite being kidnapped. Rapunzel spends her time painting, cooking, candle-making, reading, brushing her hair, playing with Pascal, observing the outside world from within the tower, singing, and interacting with Mother Gothel. Being immensely fascinated by the floating lanterns that took place on her birthday every year, Rapunzel begins to develop a sense of curiosity and seeks to fulfill the dream of seeing those \"\"lights in the sky\"\" one day. However, she does not overcome Mother Gothel's strict guardianship and thus has been staying in the tower, longing for the day when her life \"\"begins\"\". Personality Rapunzel is a spirited, smart, clever, kind, playful, and a very adventurous girl in her late teens, though a bit naive."

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

"text": "Edit Article How to Stop Feeling Too Old Have you ever wanted to try something but felt that you were just too old to do it? Or do you feel as though life has passed you by and now that you are of a certain age, you can no longer chase dreams or goals from your youth? Luckily, aging today has no parameters or definition. Today’s person in their 50’s looks nothing like he/she looked like decades ago. Thanks to advanced medicine and education about how to lead a healthy lifestyle, people are staying youthful and vital well into their 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and beyond. However, if you’ve been feeling a little creaky or have gotten hung up on your age, consider how you can transfer from being aged to ageless. Steps1 Embrace your age. Most likely all you have to do is think about how you handled a few social or professional situations in your twenties (or even thirties) and cringe. With age comes wisdom (hopefully) so it’s time to embrace everything you’ve learned and love the fact that you are a more enlightened human being. Realize that with age comes wisdom."

So, for a long time, The Weeknd didn’t want anyone to even know who he was.

If you take some time to look at a church, a chapel, synagogue or gathering place belonging to a religious sect that you're not real familiar with. Talk to others about their beliefs and ask them what animals come to mind when they describe the relationships between that kingdom and the kingdom of their God. It's really a great way to learn, bridge gaps and even share knowledge. As for me and my beliefs and understandings come from a Celtic/Cherokee heritage. It is widely believed that animals here in the physical form, as well as the spiritual form, are all guides and teachers to us.

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

For instance, an indigenous Australian might say that he or she has Kangaroo Dreaming, or Shark Dreaming, or Honey Ant Dreaming, or any combination of Dreamings pertinent to their \"\"country\"\". Many Indigenous Australians also refer to the Creation time as \"\"The Dreaming\"\". The Dreamtime laid down the patterns of life for the Aboriginal people. Dreaming stories vary throughout Australia, with variations on the same theme. For example, the story of how the birds got their colors is different in New South Wales and in Western Australia. Stories cover many themes and topics, as there are stories about creation of sacred places, land, people, animals and plants, law and custom. It is a complex network of knowledge, faith, and practices that derive from stories of creation. It pervades and informs all spiritual and physical aspects of an indigenous Australian's life."

If so, the cave probably represents your unconscious, the treasure represents yourself, the dragon that stands between you and your true self represents the fearsomeness of the unconscious, for one who is still afraid of what may be lurking there. This is a repression of the unconscious contents ( 2) For Jung, the first stage of the individuation process is the conscious ego's heroic struggle {the hero/heroine journey of mythology} to lift itself out of the orginal all-encompassing unconsciousness and to establish control of unconscious forces. This finds symbolic representation in the legendary dragon-slayer, St George ( St George = the ego; the dragon = the unconscious ). ( 3) The dragon may represent the devouring aspect of (your relationship with) your mother. ' Slaying the dragon ' may therefore mean putting an end to whatever in your attachment to your mother is detrimental to the process of finding your own psychic individuality. Once the individual has achieved liberation from the ' dragon ', the feminine side of the man's psyche and the masculine side of the woman's psyche will no longer appear in threatening form, but as an indispensable companion and guide in further stages of self-development. ( 4) A dragon may represent the generative power of (Mother) Nature; the unconscious, felt as womb pregnant with new possibilities of life. ( 5) A winged dragon may symbolize some kind of transcendence, some passing from 'lower' to 'higher' level of personal maturity. ( 6) A dragon may be a symbol for your sexuality, particularily if it - your sexuality - frightens you."

Anyone who has had any experience with venomous reptiles has had a chance to engage the thought of keeping a venomous snake that has no venom. A \"\" venomoid \"\" is a venomous snake that has been subjected to a surgical procedure aimed to prohibit the use of its inherent venomous capabilities. This would seem to open many doors for those who have enjoyed a fascination with venomous species of snake, but are unwilling to risk keeping one in their home. Many purists absolutely despise the idea, while others embrace venomoids as a viable option and alternative to keeping potentially deadly animals in the home, or otherwise close proximity to human beings. Either way, the subject of venomoids has become a huge debate within the venomous community, and it is a subject that should be addressed. They are not going to go away. In this article, I will attempt to gather and present as many actual facts as possible in relation to the subject of venomoids, considering only the species most commonly devenomized (not rear-fanged or other more obscure species), and discuss the controversial status of the subject among hot-herp keepers from all backgrounds. I have been told writing such an article would be a daring endeavor considering the subject matter and the intended readership. But as an experienced keeper of several species of venomous snakes myself, I believe I have become appropriately acclimated to safe handling of hot subjects."

Your dream may be alerting you to something in your waking life that you are not aware of or that has not yet surfaced. The snake may also be seen as phallic and thus symbolize dangerous and forbidden sexuality. The snake may also refer to a person around you who is callous, ruthless, and can't be trusted."

This is so wrong and so hurtful to so many. Nobody can judge anybody’s level of self respect other than their own.

Graduation attire can vary depending on where the graduation will be held, age of the graduate, plans after the graduation ceremony, etc. Below you'll find some tips for graduates, friends and family on how to choose the most appropriate graduation outfits for the occasion!Tips for the graduate: Attire: You'll have your cap and gown on over your outfit, but it's customary to wear sometthing nice underneath. For guys that means nice pants and a button down shirt (maybe even a tie). And for ladies, that means a casual dress/skirt or nice pants. Graduation dresses can be as simple as a little black dress or something bright and colorful. Just make sure your pretty graduation dress doesn't clash with your cap and gown!Footwear: Be careful when choosing your shoes, especially for the ladies. If your graduation will take place on the grass, you might not want to wear stilettos (especially if it's recently rained—you'll sink right in!). Instead opt for a cute ballet flat or a wedge heel."

It’s an inverted triangular (or diamond shaped) piece of fabric inserted into a garment to make it fit more comfortably. If you’d like to put gussets in pants or a top that has sleeves, look at this post on How To Put Gussets in Pants or Shirts. This post will cover how to put gussets in an area where two seams intersect. These triangular gussets are usually found in a strapless dress or a dress or top that has straps. When adding gussets to a strapless dress or top, you will usually have two gussets….one in each side seam, even if you have a zipper on the side. You know you need a gusset, when you are zipping up a dress or skirt and it won’t zip up all the way. ( There are other instances where they are needed, but we’ll focus on this problem for now. ) I’ve written a post that teaches you how to put in a corset back in your dress, but not every dress needs a corset back. If you need to enlarge a bridesmaids dress, for example, and you want all the dresses to look the same from the back, you’ll want to put in gussets instead of a corset back."

This line of thinking kept hold and became deeply rooted for so long that it has even been looked into by psychologists. Dr. Jennifer Baumgartner, a clinical psychologist and author of the book “You Are What You Wear: What Your Clothes Reveal About You” called it the “psychology of dress”. Others term it as “fashion psychology”. Judgments about one’s character and personality are almost always automatically made just with one glance at what the person is wearing. We can make deductions about a person’s background, income, occupation, affiliations, and even sexual orientation, values and cultural identity, among other things. It goes without saying that, if you want to be judged in a certain way, one of the things you should take note of is the way you dress.

This week Scholars Speak offers a two-for-one offer on school dress codes from faculty of the Fresno Pacific University School of Education: Scott Key opposes school dress codes because they teach students that conformity is more important than adaptability and do not prepare young people for the workplace and its emphasis on flexibility and problem-solving. Larry Wilder favors school dress codes because they lead to a safer educational environment that increases students’ ability to learn, increases equality between the sexes and tolerance among ethnic and social groups. Pros of school dress code: helping students dress for safety By Larry Wilder, Ed. D. Each year more and more schools adopt some form of dress code. While some challenges have been made concerning their constitutionality, in general court rulings have supported codes that are instituted properly and can be shown to be rationally related to a legitimate pedagogical purpose. The safety of the children in the schools appears to be the overriding concern considered by the courts. Public schools have the responsibility to have safe and orderly schools that maintain an environment conducive to learning. The National School Board Association estimates that approximately 135,000 guns are brought to America’s 85,000 public schools each day. This is one reason school districts use to implement dress codes."

Is it possible to stay cool and comfortable while following the “rules”? Absolutely. Ladies and gentlemen, we bring to you the dos and don’ts of what to wear in Thailand. We’ve briefly addressed what to wear in Thailand in our Tips for Visiting Thailand for the First Time post, but since it’s such a hot topic and Thailand’s high season is in full swing now, we were inspired to dedicate an entire post to it. PIN IT FOR LATER!Let’s be honest: Thailand usually turns a blind eye to foreigners’ clothing choices, so on the surface there seems to be no clear-cut rules on how to dress. However, there are definitely clothing trends that are acceptable and others that just won’t do, and that is something we’ve deduced simply by observing what the locals wear. Plus, we can confidently say that your appearance has an effect on how you’re treated in Thailand, so choosing to dress tastefully and appropriately goes a long way.

Originally, it was the beet greens that were consumed; the sweet red beet root that most people think of as a \"\"beet\"\" today wasn't cultivated until the era of ancient Rome. 1By the 19th century, however, the natural sweetness of beets came to be appreciated and beets began to be used as a source of sugar (reportedly, Napoleon was responsible for declaring that beets be used as a primary source of sugar after the British restricted access to sugar cane). 2Today, sugar beets (unfortunately often genetically modified) are a common raw material used for the production of sugar, but many people are missing out on including them in whole form in their regular diet. There's good reason to do so, in fact, as beets contain a variety of unique health-boosting nutrients that you may not be getting elsewhere. Plus, they're delicious!Why Eat Beets? 6 Top Reasons Beet roots have always been included in my most recommended vegetables list, although they are in the \"\"use sparingly\"\" category because of their high carbohydrate levels. Although beets have the highest sugar content of all vegetables, most people can safely eat beet roots a few times a week (and their greens in unlimited quantities), enjoying not only their sweet, earthy flavor but also their powerhouse nutrients that may improve your health in the following ways.1. Lower Your Blood Pressure Drinking beet juice may help to lower blood pressure in a matter of hours. One study found that drinking one glass of beet juice lowered systolic blood pressure by an average of 4-5 points."

"text": "Apple, Beet and Carrot Juice Liver Tonicby Helen Sanders Juicing A healthy liver is a vitally important element of good health, yet most of us seldom pay it much attention unless we are forced to. With an estimated 30 million Americans affected by liver disease this is a serious and growing health problem. While this apple, beet and carrot juice recipe can’t make up for a diet full of fast food and excessive alcohol, it is a recognized liver tonic and rejuvenator that may help to ease the burden on your body’s master cleansing organ and improve the way you look and feel. For many people, their poor overworked liver puts a lot of effort into filtering and detoxifying all the dietary and environmental pollutants that get sent to it each day. Once the level of these toxins starts to get too high for the liver to deal with on its own, it will recruit your skin into trying to get rid of the excess, often leading to skin problems and dark circles under the eyes. Regular headaches and a general tiredness and lethargy can also be symptoms of a liver under strain. Making up and drinking a blend of carrot, beet and apple juice fresh is a simple and effective way to help cleanse your liver and increase the rate that you process toxins out of your body. The Magic of Fresh Juice Quite unlike heat-treated and sugary commercial juice, fresh fruit and vegetable juices are full of powerful enzymes, antioxidants and other nutrients that you can feel within minutes of having them. In fact, drinking freshly extracted juice has been compared to having an energy transfusion from the plants involved into your body’s cells. Since there is so little digestion required, this is one of the quickest ways to deliver nutrients to important organs like your liver."

Anemia has many causes, including loss of blood (during menstruation in women), reduced level of erythropoietin (a hormone produced by kidneys), pregnancy, poor diet, and leukemia. Certain types of anemia, including hemolytic anemia, sickle anemia, and sideroblastic anemia, are caused not by nutritional deficiencies, but by malfunctions in the body. These types require professional treatment, so check with your doctor to find out which type you have before beginning a home treatment. If you’re suffering from a simple nutritional deficiency, there are many ways you can treat your anemia at home, using safe, natural, affordable remedies. Ready to find out what they are?

Is Anemia a Disease? Many people look at anemia as a disease in and of itself, but it is actually just a result of nutritional deficiency. Anemia is a condition that occurs when an individual does not have enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout the body. The condition has a variety of causes and ranges from temporary to long-term and mild to severe. You may develop anemia if you have a condition that causes your body to produce an insufficient amount of red blood cells, your body loses red blood cells too quickly, or your body destroys red blood cells. Can I “Rebuild” My Blood with Natural Remedies? The goal for treating anemia is rebuilding the supply of red blood cells in the body.

( Last Updated: Sep 20, 2007) Tweet Fever is basically a symptom for some kind of illness and therefore it is imperative to find out what the exact cause of fever is before trying out any remedy. When you find out the underlying cause of the symptoms and treat it, fever will get cured. Some fevers however run their course and do not respond much to treatments. There are however, some remedies that you can try just to relieve yourself of the pain, aches and fatigue that fever usually causes. In fever, due to the heat generated in the body, there is a huge loss of water and fluids. It is important to replenish water so that this huge loss can be compensated. Keep yourself hydrated by drinking lots and lots of water and other liquids. Fruit juices, broths, soups, coconut water are great for maintaining the liquid balance in the body."

Berries, including cranberries, can stain your urine. Your level of hydration and what else you ate with the cranberries will vary the color of your urine. When cranberries or other foods stain your urine, it’s usually only temporary and is nothing to be alarmed about. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Urine Color The typical color of urine is straw-yellow. When you eat certain foods such as berries, beets and other naturally red foods, it can stain your urine a different color. The color can range depending upon your diet on that particular day and how many cranberries you consumed. The color of your urine may appear light pink, especially if you only had a few cranberries and were very hydrated or dark pink if you ate a lot of cranberries and were not very hydrated. Pigmentation The natural pigment found in cranberries, as well as other berries, is what stains your urine a different color. The American Dietetic Association explains that the crimson color of cranberries is caused by a flavonoid that helps lower your cholesterol and reduces the risk of stroke and heart disease."

Thanks Gene A: Hey Gene, Super good question. There are SO many varieties of produce out there that it would be difficult to cover them all, espeically since we all live in different states, countries, etc. where we have various types of fruits and vegetables. I can, however, list out some common ones in the USA that we all should be aware of. Citrus Rinds (Oranges, Grapefruits): Not the end of the world if you do, but citrus peels like oranges and grapefruits contain and indigesitble oil that's hard on our stomachs. Lemons and limes are excluded from this list as they are fine to juice whole. Carrot Greens: Carrot tops are not edible."

If you are having constipation, you are probably taking elemental iron (ferrous gluconate, ferrous sulphate, etc) It's the cheapest and most often prescribed. The best option is heme iron, which is processed from animal sources and therefore much easier to absorb. It won't cause any side effects. The only downside is that it's a lot more expensive, and contains a lower dose, so you may need to take a few pills a day instead of just one."

With exposure to environmental toxins, toxic body care products and processed foods, most people are in desperate need of a serious detox! A liver cleanse is a great way to do this. One of the main ways that the body rids itself of toxins is through the liver. In fact, the liver is one of the hardest working organs in the body. It works tirelessly to detoxify our blood; produce the bile needed to digest fat; break down hormones; and store essential vitamins, minerals and iron. When liver function is not optimal, we cannot digest our food properly, especially fats. Some of the essential functions of the liver include: ( 1)Processing nutrients absorbed by the intestines so they are more efficiently absorbed Regulating blood composition to balance protein, fat and sugar Destroying old red blood cells Producing essential chemicals to help blood clot properly Breaking down and metabolizing alcohol and medications Producing essential proteins and cholesterol Removing toxins from the bloodstream, including bilirubin, ammonia and others Storing of minerals, iron and vitamin AFor the liver to take care of the body, it must be able to perform optimally.

Russian soup \"\"Borscht\"\" is probably the most popular beetroot cosine. However to get most nutrients out of your beetroots, it is best to consume them raw. Juicing is a great way to enjoy most of the health benefits raw beetroots have to offer. It might come as a surprise to many, but beets come from the same botanic family as chard and spinach.

So here’s a break down of everything you need to know about electrolytes, where they come from, when to consume them, and our favorite juices to keep you full of them!What are electrolytes? Electrolytes are important nutrients for our bodies as they play key roles in sending electrical impulses that influence our heart, muscles and nerves. They also play an important role in fluid balance and hydration in our cells, tissues, and our muscles. Lack of sufficient electrolytes can contribute to muscle cramps, delayed muscle soreness and spasms following exercise and for some can contribute to headaches. Where are electrolytes found? Electrolytes include sodium, potassium, calcium, chloride and magnesium. Most often, electrolytes can be found in foods but they can also be found in beverages such as coconut water and juices made from electrolyte-rich fruits and vegetables. Electrolytes cannot be consumed by drinking water as water lacks these important electrolytes. What foods contain electrolytes?"

Dry Aging Beef to Increase Its' Tenderness Is It Possible to Dry Age Beef At Home Definition of Dry Aged Beef: Forty years ago, most of our beef was dry aged. In the early 1960's the process of vacuum packing beef became the norm for most processors. The advantage of this process was that they could \"\"wet age\"\" the beef in the bag and not lose any of the weight of the beef. Wet aging was much more cost effective for the processors so a weaning of the consumers' taste buds began to occur. Slowly, the consumer forgot what the real taste of steak was. Beef is aged for 7 to 21 days. During this process a crust forms on the outside of the loin, very similar to the texture of beef jerky. This layer is trimmed away, leaving steaks that are superior in tenderness and flavor. During the dry aging process, the juices are absorbed into the meat, enhancing the flavor and tenderizing the steaks."

USDA’s certification programs have successfully helped the industry market its brands with USDA integrity for over twenty years. Photo courtesy Premshree Pillai. Used with permission. When consumers hear the term Kobe, the first thought that comes to mind is typically not a city in Japan, but rather a juicy steak right off the grill. Kobe beef is globally renowned for its rich flavor, juiciness, and tenderness or high marbling content . Kobe beef is cuts of beef from the Tajima strain of Wagyu cattle (which mean Japanese cattle), raised in Kobe, Japan. But did you know you can find Kobe-style beef produced right here in the United States? Since 1994, U. S. producers have worked to offer American Kobe-style beef that features the same characteristics, marbling and flavor that defines Japan’s Kobe beef by bringing herds of Kryoshi and Akaushi breeds of Wagyu cattle to the United States. The same closed herd and multi-trait selection process used for Kobe beef was adopted and is now used by various U. S. trade associations ( American Akaushi Association, the American Wagyu Association, and the Texas Wagyu Association) that promote and uphold the industry standards."

"text": "Up to 50% of the weight can be lost through the dry aging process, but what is lost in weight is gained in its rich flavor and buttery texture!Marc Sarrazin, President and Partner of De Bragga The secret to the great steaks found at the very best steak houses is that the chefs not only select excellent beef from De Bragga, but they have the beef dry aged specifically to their specs. Our dry aged beef is hung in our coolers to age for at least 30 days where the moisture in the meat is allowed to escape. Evaporation shrinks the beef, concentrating its flavor as it softens the meat. Additionally, the proteins and fats go through a transformation as well. The result is superb beef with an extraordinarily rich flavor and buttery texture. While producing a far superior eating experience, dry aged beef is very expensive to produce. The beef itself loses up to 15% of its volume while drying. In addition, the dry aging process requires increased trimming, all of which accounts for a total loss of up to 50% of the weight of the original piece of beef. And if this did not raise the price enough, add in the costs of managed air circulation, strict temperature and humidity controls, stringent inventory management and increased storage room for the dry aging facility. All of these special accommodations go in, at some measure, to the final price of the dry aged beef product."

The term “Kobe beef” gets thrown around alot — you see it on some high-end steak house menus in Houston, and more ubiquitously on burger joint menus as a “Kobe burger. ”A tale of two tenderloins: USDA Prime (left), A5 Kobe (right)There’s a certain mystique about Kobe beef, vaguely associated with fat, docile cows from Japan that get massaged with sake and force-fed beer through a tube. Though it’s sometimes hard to separate hype from reality — the steak from the sizzle if you will — one thing’s for sure: real Kobe beef is very hard to come by. Carlos Rodriguez knows this. He’s the Concept Chef (i.e. head honcho) at Vic & Anthony’s in downtown Houston. He’s spent the last three years trying to source the real Kobe beef to serve here in Houston. Problem is, what limited supply there is gets shipped to cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Las Vegas. Recently, he was able to work through a broker in New Jersey to have the Kobe beef shipped directly from Japan. This past Friday he started serving a five ounce tenderloin of real Kobe beef for an admittedly eye-popping $130."

In order to be Kobebeef, the cattle that it comes from must be of the Taijima family of Wagyu (the breed) and have been raised inthe Japanese prefecture of Hyogo. Additionally, to be certified “Kobe”, it must be slaughtered at the right agein Hyogo-ken, have the right amount of marbling, and show a minimum of 5 generations of Taijima lineage oneach side. Kobe beef gets its name from the prefecture capital city of Kobe, and it is these cattle that are oflegendary fame for their sake drinking and massages. As so often is the case, the myth behind the legend is notnecessary the most accurate. The cattle are given alcohol only during the summer months to stimulate theirappetite because they go off their feed due to the high heat and humidity. Most of these animals are raised byindividual families on their limited property and thus are kept confined in pens with limited freedom to moveabout and graze. They are massaged to keep them from becoming stiff and knotted up. Frankly, massaging theshoulders of a cow will not tenderize the beef, regardless of how long or how often you do it. It is this restrictedlifestyle as well as the animal’s genetic makeup that predispose it to become highly marbled overtime andproduce the extremely high intramuscular fat that is so prized and commands prices that are in the hundreds ofdollars per pound."

By Alexa West on February 29, 2016Photo Hapa Izakaya/Flickr / Flickr Whether it’s Wagyu beef, caviar or black truffles, some people are prepared to spend a small fortune for a culinary treat. For beef aficionados, there’s nothing quite like the taste and texture of real Wagyu steak. Genuine Wagyu beef from Japan can command prices of up to $50 for a mere 100g. But is it worth it? Wagyu Beef: a healthy and tasty meat The word wagyu literally means “Japanese cow.” Wagyu beef comes from four types of cow: Japanese Brown Japanese Black Japanese Shorthorn Japanese Poll Traditionally, sake or beer was added to the cattle's feed and, due to Japan's rugged terrain, the animals also were massaged to prevent cramps. These breeding techniques, coupled with the cow’s DNA, produce beef that is beautifully marbled, buttery and tender. It is also healthier than commercial beef because it is higher in monounsaturated fats and contains more omega-3s. The price of Wagyu beef Wagyu beef has become a bit more affordable in recent times because ranches across the American Southwest are specializing in breeding these types of Japanese cows."

Take it away, Erin!Victoria and Alberts Victoria and Albert’s Chef’s Table: The Perfect Place for Children Wait, wait, I know what you’re thinking, “They don’t even allow children at Victoria and Albert’s.” This is true; the youngest guests are not permitted at Disney’s premier restaurant, but children age 10 and up are welcome to experience V&A’s. And that’s just what we did, brought our three girls, 13-year-old Charlie and 10 year-old twins Josie and Louisa to the most elegant restaurant in Central Florida. ( More amazing pictures and review after the break)A bit of background – For years, I had been hearing wonderful things about V&A and finally persuaded my husband to take me there for our anniversary in July 2009. Despite being a jaded New Yorker, with many five-star business meals under his belt (literally), Jeff was completely wowed by V&A’s. Everything about that meal was perfect: the service, the food, and even the music. He still talks about hearing Peter Frampton songs played on the harp. Indeed, Jeff was so taken with Victoria & Albert’s that he wanted to share the experience with our children."

"text": "What is Wagyu? Home » Breed Info » What is Wagyu? What are WAGYU? WAGYU - a Japanese beef cattle breed – derive from native Asian cattle. ' WAGYU' refers to all Japanese beef cattle, where 'Wa' means Japanese and 'gyu' means cow. Wagyu were originally draft animals used in agriculture, and were selected for their physical endurance. This selection favored animals with more intra-muscular fat cells – ‘marbling’ – which provided a readily available energy source. Wagyu is a horned breed and the cattle are either black or red in color. To view a short introductory video on Wagyu beef (courtesy of the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries - MAFF) click here WAGYU Breed History in Japan There is some evidence of genetic separation into the Wagyu genetic strain as much as 35000 years ago. Modern Wagyu cattle are the result of crossing of the native cattle in Japan with imported breeds."

First question i can answer since starting a career in butchering The US cut of brisket is different to the brisket cut we take from the carcass here. Its mostly used for making mince and hamburgers here as there isnt much of a demand for it. A rolled brisket does make a nice slow cooked bit of meat but but its not the same as a US brisket. You would have to have to know a co-operative butcher to cut up a US brisket for you as he would have to cut the brisket so it takes part of other cuts of meat he/she would normally sell. And they would have to know how to do it too Aug 17, 2010 #2OPwaksimus Member Joined: Jun 2, 2003Messages: 176Location: Perthbugger...

Follow 7 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Dromedary camels were known as \"\"ships of the desert\"\" during Marco Polo's day. They were the perfect desert pack animals, able to carry 300 pounds and to journey for up to two weeks without food or water. ♣Source (s):http://gonewengland.about.com/od/risight... Basement Bob · 9 years ago5 1 Comment Camel is called as the ship of the desert. The camel species first developed in North America, and around 40 million years ago these animals were no larger than a rabbit and had no distinguishing hump. These animals evolved into the present day Dromedary camel which stands over 10 ft. tall. Camels don't have many choices of food items since they live in an environment in which few plants will grow; they have, however, evolved to the point where they can ( and often do) eat and digest anything that grows in a harsh, hot and dry climate. They have three stomachs which allows the camel to partially digest their food and then regurgitate it to finish the chewing and digestion process."

"text": "\"TRANSPORTATION ALONG THE SILK ROADChinese-produced Silk Road goods carried overland to Europe were not loaded onto camels and carried from China to Europe. Goods made their way westward in a piecemeal way, with a lot trading and loading and unloading at the caravan stops along the way. Different caravans carried goods during different sections, with traders coming from the west exchanging thing like gold, wool, horses or jade for silk coming from the east. The caravans stopped at fortresses and oases along the way, passing their loads from trader to trader, with each transaction increasing the price as the traders took their cut. Few people traveled the Silk Road from one end to the other as Marco Polo did. Many were simple traders who took goods from one town or oases to the next and then returned home, or they were horsemen who earned an income from trading and transporting goods between settled towns. After the 14th century, much of the silk from the East was shipped from a Genoan port on the Crimea to Europe. According to UNESCO: “The process of travelling the Silk Roads developed along with the roads themselves. In the Middle Ages, caravans consisting of horses or camels were the standard means of transporting goods across land. Caravanserais, large guest houses or inns designed to welcome travelling merchants, played a vital role in facilitating the passage of people and goods along these routes."

It is common knowledge that dromedary camels can survive for many days in the hot desert without access to water. However, the role of the camel's hump in water preservation is not well understood by most people. Most of us, when looking at camels in the zoo, still imagine the humps to be filled with water. But what is the truth behind the myth - what secrets are hidden beneath the camel's skin? First, it can be ascertained that the camel's hump is not in fact filled with water, simply by cutting into it. Such action would reveal that the hump is in fact composed mostly of fat. Yet, this could still suggest that the hump acts as a water store."

I usually worry about my breathing when I start to feel it coming and can feel myself very tense.

Now these seem to be more limited symptoms but very intense and I don't seem to be able to stop it. It doesn't feel like a panic attack, but more just something causes me to gag or dry heave. I was wondering are those symptoms of anxiety or should I seek another diagnosis, it doesn't seem to be listed in almost any book or information I've seen on Panic/Anxiety.

So what’s with the animals that have one hump and the ones that have two? That’s where the difference comes in; the dromedary has one hump, while the other subspecies of camel, the Bactrian, has two. And also unlike their more popular cousins, the Bactrian lives in the searingly hot (and freezing cold) rocky deserts of Central and East Asia. The Whole Bushel When we think of camels, it’s usually the more popular dromedary that comes to mind first. One of two subspecies of camel, these are the one-humped variety. It’s thought that their original habitat was southern Asia and the Middle East, but now they can be found throughout the desert regions of the Middle East, India and Africa. The most noticeable difference between the dromedary and the Bactrian is the number of humps—the Bactrian has two. They’re also found in a much more northern climate than the dromedary."

"text": "Praveen Kumar, works at Tata Consultancy Services Answered Jun 14, 2016A hump full of water could come in handy in a camel's line of work, but these bulges are actually filled with fat. That store of fat is like a spare tank of gasoline in your car trunk. When food and water become scarce, the camel extracts energy from that mound of fat. In fact, the longer a camel goes without eating or drinking, the more visibly deflated its hump becomes. But give it adequate water and food, and camel humps plump up in a matter of days. So just how long can a camel go without water before its hump starts to slump? In How long can you go without food and water?, we learned that humans can last only three to five days without any water in temperate conditions. During winters in the Sahara Desert, camels have been known to survive six or seven months without actually drinking [source: Lumpkin ]. Granted, camels get liquid from the plants they eat during that dry spell, but it's still an incredibly long time sans drinking water."

"text": "Science & Mathematics Zoology Where do camels store water and what is their hump made of and why one hump and two hump camels? Follow 3 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Camels are well known for their humps. They do not, however, store water in them as is commonly believed, though they do serve this purpose through roundabout means. Their humps are a reservoir of fatty tissue, while water is stored in their blood. However, when this tissue is metabolised, it is not only a source of energy, but yields through reaction with oxygen from the air 1111 g of water per 1000 g of fat. This allows them to survive without water for about two weeks, and without food for up to a month. Their red blood cells have an oval shape, unlike those of other mammals, which are circular. This is to facilitate their flow in a dehydrated state. These cells are also more stable [1], in order to withstand high osmotic variation without rupturing, when drinking large amounts of water. The kidneys of a camel are very efficient."

Unfortunately, with legal considerations varying from state to state, high costs of transport, insurance, and repairs, this often isn’t true. Finding the right mobile home movers makes it all the more frustrating with outdated list and phone numbers. If you’re planning to move, it is important that you approach your decision to move your mobile home cautiously and with all of the facts to help you get the best deal and the most for your money. The first and most crucial element of deciding whether or not to move a mobile home should be cost-effectiveness. While the term mobile home might make moving your home sound easy, most aren’t that mobile and a considerable amount of effort and preparation goes into their transportation. If the move costs more than half of the value of your mobile home, you are most likely better off choosing to sell and purchasing a new or secondhand manufactured home at your destination. Preparing for the Move You can begin preparing your mobile home for the move or allow your movers to do so for you at an additional cost. Preparation includes removing your valuables, securing furniture, securing windows, removing skirting, removing breakables, and otherwise ensuring that nothing in the mobile home can break, fall over, or cause damage to other items."

I have no allegiance to either, but am just trying to figure out the best (and hopefully most cost efficient method) to build hydronic floors. What I have found so far is the following: Weight - Gypcrete weighs less than concrete, but if you design for it, that is not a problem. I'd be using Schluter's Bekotec anyway, which reduces the volume of concrete required per square foot of area drastically. Sealing - Generally, you should pour the screed (gypcrete or concrete) after you put up the drywall, to provide a good seal between the floor and the wall. They claim that gypcrete seals better than concrete but I don't think this is a problem if you use a concrete with better flow characteristics than normal concrete. But, generally, I would say that gypcrete would naturally seal and flow under the drywall with minimal encouraging. Strength - You can achieve much higher compressive strength with concrete mixes than gypcrete. Gypcrete, under ideal conditions, barely meets the recommended strength that the engineered wood floor guys require (3,000 psi or so) for glue down (but I hear this recommendation is being revised downward to 2,500 psi). Finishing - Trowelling is required with concrete and it is claimed not with gypcrete."

Luckily, there are ways to keep workers breathing easy.by Elizabeth Gillette As most drywall contractors can attest, controlling dust on a job site can be an uphill battle. Finishing drywall to various levels of finishes requires sanding, and the dust produced by this process can wreak havoc on workers and work site. This byproduct of the sanding process is problematic for many reasons, several of which may not be readily apparent to those working in these conditions. There are, however, new options for remedying this problem. The most important issue driving the need for minimizing drywall dust is that it can cause health problems in those who are consistently exposed to it. Drywall and joint compounds contain silica, which is a dangerous carcinogen. When sanded and made into dust, these building materials can be inhaled and cause serious health issues. As the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health states on its Web site, \"\"Over time, breathing the dust from drywall joint compounds may cause persistent throat and airway irritation, coughing, phlegm production, and breathing difficulties similar to asthma .... When silica is present, workers may also face an increased risk of silicosis and lung cancer.\"\" This dust can quickly make a job site hazardous."

They're difficult to repair, hard to clean, and catch dust easily; but despite all these cons, their popularity exploded beginning in the late 1950s because they made easy work of finishing ceilings and hiding imperfections. If it's time to bid farewell, there are three popular ways to take on the challenge: scrape, cover with a new layer of drywall, or skim coat with plaster to create a new texture. Which is best? Depends on a lot of things, including the age and condition of the substrate (ceiling). We spoke with drywall and stucco expert Mike Poellinger, owner of Poellinger, Inc., in La Crosse, WI, who filled us in on everything a homeowner should know before deciding how to remove their popcorn ceiling. With his help, we break down the three methods below. Photo by Banks Photos/Getty Images Scrape The method When scraping popcorn ceilings, you'll want to use a 4-inch utility knife or a drywall knife to chip away at the texture and create a smooth surface. You'll probably need to skim it with a thin layer of joint compound to smooth out imperfections, then sand it smooth before repainting. Why do it?"

Some people swear by clay bodies that have a mixture of large and small sized grog. For durability and waterproofness, you want a clay body that matures at the temperature you will glaze fire at. This is especially critical for tiles which are outside or in bathrooms. The absorption rate after firing should be 3% or less, otherwise water will seep in and cause the tiles to crack.

Typical costs: Patch kits to repair small holes in existing drywall are $2-$20; the more expensive kits contain materials to patch several holes or up to four feet of cracks. Simple repairs can also be made using joint compound ($3-$15 ), a drywall hand saw ($5-$16) and average household tools such as a hammer, drill and utility knife. Better Homes & Gardens gives directions for patching small holes up a few inches wide and larger holes up to eight inches across. Drywall materials (drywall sheets plus screws or nails, joint compound, tape, etc.) average 25 cents - 65 cents a square foot; professional installation is an additional 85 cents -$1.50 per square foot. Installing new drywall on the walls and ceiling of a 12x12-foot-room with 8-foot-high walls means about 530 square feet of drywall. For about 4,000 square feet of drywall on all the walls and ceilings of a small home, it's $4,400-$8,600 or more. Factors such as cathedral ceilings or irregular layouts can bump the price higher. And it's easier to install drywall in a house that's under construction, so remodeling projects tend to be at the higher end of the price range."

Includes forms to be used to assess hazards. August 1999OSHA's Advisory Committee on Construction Occupational Safety and Health prepared this document as part of the continuing debate on whether to produce an ergonomics standard to prevent work-related musculoskeletal disorders. The recommendations were originally posted on the OSHA website, at www.osha.gov, in August 1999. Types of Injuries Most injuries in construction workers are sprains and strains of the muscles. Construction work can also cause injuries to the joints, bones, and nerves. These injuries often occur from constant wear and tear on the body. Taken together these injuries are called musculoskeletal disorders. Generally, musculoskeletal disorders in construction workers affect the hand and wrist, the shoulders, neck and upper back, the low back, and the hips and knees. There are a number of well-known diagnoses of musculoskeletal disorders."

Introduction In this chapter, we will explore the effect of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matching on renal transplant outcomes. The importance of HLA matching has been clearly established in renal transplantation and the extent of HLA mismatches at the A, B and DR loci form an important part in the assessment of the immunological risk of potential transplant candidates. Increasing number of HLA mismatches has been shown to be associated with poorer graft and patient survival following kidney transplantation but the ongoing importance of this association in the era of more potent immunosuppression and improved donor selection remains unclear. Nevertheless, HLA mismatches remain a crucial component of deceased donor kidney allocation in most countries including the United States and Australia. As a result of major advances in technology, HLA-typing has evolved from serological-based typing to molecular HLA-typing and solid-phase anti-HLA-antibody-detection assays, which have had a major influence in both allocation and outcome of transplanted kidneys. The identification of donor-specific anti-HLA-antibody (DSA) has become standard practice and cross-matching assays to establish the presence of DSA has evolved from complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) assay to the exquisitely sensitive flow-cytometric and solid-phase assays. The availability of these sensitive assays has enable clinicians to perform calculated panel reactive antibody and virtual cross-match, which has led to a more accurate assessment of immunological risk of potential transplant candidates and improvement in the allocation of deceased donor kidneys. Defining the appropriate threshold values for clinically relevant DSA assignment, the ongoing significance of HLA-matching in the presence of DSA and the importance of anti-HLA-Cw, HLA-DQ and HLA-DP antibodies remain poorly defined. Finally, we will discuss the process of identifying acceptable HLA-mismatches using HLAMatchmaker, which determines HLA-compatibility at the level of polymorphic amino acid triplets or eplets in antibody-accessible regions, and the benefit of acceptable HLA-mismatch programs in improving the transplant potential of highly sensitized transplant candidates.2."

"text": "\"Workbook on Digital Private Papers > Administrative and preservation metadata > Metadata for authenticity: hash functions and digital signatures Metadata for authenticity: hash functions and digital signatures How digital signatures work The private key of the originator is used as input to the algorithm which transforms the data being signed (or its hash value). This transformation can only be reversed, and the data decrypted and accessed, by use of the originator’s public key, which is provided to the recipient (s) by the originator. Creating a digital signature with a private key Data encryption using asymmetric keys is an expensive operation directly proportional to the size of the data being encrypted; it potentially doubles the size of the data increasing the processing power and bandwidth required to process and transfer the data. A more efficient approach is to first use a secure cryptographic hash function (such as SHA-1) which can take large objects of varying size and produce a unique fixed-size hash value or message digest. The much smaller hash value can then be encrypted with the private key of the originator to produce the digital signature. Having calculated the message digest this can be encrypted using the private key of the originator to produce the digital signature, as shown in the diagram below: Verifying a digital signature created with a private key The recipient must de-crypt the digital signature using the public key of the originator and recalculate the hash value of the corresponding digital object. If the calculated hash value does not match the result of the decrypted signature, either the object has been altered since being signed, or the signature was not generated with the corresponding private key of the originator. Digital signature algorithms Just as there are a number of algorithms for creating hash values, there are also a number of digital signature algorithms. Two of the most commonly used are RSA and DSA. RSA The RSA digital signature algorithm was developed by Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir and Leonard Adleman at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1977."

When specified, jarsigner will check that the certificate used to verify each signed entry in the jar file matches one of the keystore aliases. The aliases are defined in the keystore specified by -keystore, or the default keystore. DESCRIPTIONThe jarsigner tool is used for two purposes:to sign Java ARchive (JAR) files, andto verify the signatures and integrity of signed JAR files. The JAR feature enables the packaging of class files, images, sounds, and other digital data in a single file for faster and easier distribution. A tool named jar enables developers to produce JAR files. ( Technically, any zip file can also be considered a JAR file, although when created by jar or processed by jarsigner, JAR files also contain a META-INF/MANIFEST.

The liver serves many critical functions including metabolism of drugs and toxins, removing degradation products of normal body metabolism (for example clearance of ammonia and bilirubin from the blood), and synthesis of many important proteins and enzymes (such as factors necessary for blood to clot). Blood enters the liver from two channels, the hepatic artery and the portal vein, bringing nutrients and oxygen to liver cells, also known as hepatocytes, and bile ducts. Blood leaves the liver via the hepatic veins which drain into the inferior vena cava which immediately enters the heart."

Since the launch of the Quell chronic pain management device this past summer, our team has been eager to learn about users’ real-world experience to treat the pain and discomfort associated with diabetic neuropathy. Thanks to help from the diabetes market research company d Q&A, we invited five volunteers with diabetic neuropathy or other forms of chronic pain to use the no-prescription-required (“over-the-counter”), FDA-cleared Quell device and app for two weeks. Read below for more information on Quell and what these five people had to say about it!Bottom Line: Quell offers a potentially life-changing experience for people suffering from chronic pain. While the cost may be high for some ($249 upfront + $30 per month), we see it as a low-risk (there’s a money-back guarantee), high-reward opportunity to significantly improve quality of life for people living with often debilitating diabetic neuropathy. For sure, there will be some who experience no pain relief from Quell (~20% of people, according to Neuro Metrix), and others more who will find the burden of wearing the calf-worn device to outweigh the pain relief it provides. Still, chronic pain remains a major unmet need in diabetes, and many people have experienced very limited success from pain medications alone. We applaud Neuro Metrix for an innovative, effective, FDA-cleared product that clearly incorporated a lot of thinking on the patient experience. Plus – fresh out of the Consumer Electronics Show – it was just announced that a second-generation version of Quell has received FDA clearance. This updated version contains advancements in tracking capabilities, an extended battery life of up to 25%, and more."

RVHT is the clinical consequence of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone activation as a result of renal ischemia. Renal artery stenosis (RAS) is a major cause of RVHT and accounts for 1-10% of the 50 million cases of hypertension in the United States. Renal artery stenosis/renovascular hypertension.

Top right, Isotopic renogram (obtained with technetium mercaptoacetyltriglycine [MAG3]) after captopril shows a markedly depressed renal function in the right kidney. Bottom right, Analogous images show negligible activity in the right kidney. Note that this pattern is more typical for DTPA than MAG3 (as DTPA depends on the glomerular filtration rate for uptake which is decreased after captopril in renovascular hypertension [RVHT]). In severe cases of RVHT, MAG3 uptake can be decreased, as in this case. However, typically, uptake is preserved with decreased cortical excretion."

Statistics for 2007-08 have revealed the marked variations in pass rates across the nation, with just over a third of learners passing tests taken at centres in Rhyl (35%), Mold (38%) and Colwyn Bay (39%). By contrast, the pass rate in centres such as Lampeter is 63%, 58% in Cardigan and 54% in Aberystwyth. In our cities, pass rates also top 50% in Cardiff, Newport and Swansea. And in Llandrindod Wells the pass rate is even higher, at 68.8%, although this is only a part-time centre. The DSA revealed that the overall pass rate for Wales was 49% – 5% more than the average in England. Mike Dykes, who runs the Progress School of Motoring in Rhyl, said some of the North Wales test routes were notoriously hard. He said: “It definitely does seem harder to pass in these areas. I put it down to the fact that it’s not like a city because you have to cover a bigger distance."

NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Neuro refers to your neurology; Linguistic refers to language; programming refers to how that neural language functions. In other words, learning NLP is like learning the language of your own mind!Let’s make this simpler with an example. Have you ever tried to communicate with someone who didn’t speak your language, and they couldn’t understand you? The classic example of this is when someone goes out to a restaurant in a Foreign country and they think they ordered steak, but when the food shows up, it turns out they actually asked for liver stew. This is the kind of relationship that most of us have with our own unconscious mind. We might think we are “ordering up” more money, a happy, healthy relationship, peace with our family members, and being able to stick to a healthy diet…but unless that’s what showing up, then something is probably getting lost in translation. In NLP, we have a saying: the conscious mind is the goal setter, and the unconscious mind is the goal getter."

The fires occurred during extreme bushfire-weather conditions and resulted in Australia's highest ever loss of life from a bushfire; [9] 173 people died [6] [10] and 414 were injured as a result of the fires. As many as 400 individual fires were recorded on 7 February. Following the events of 7 February 2009 and its aftermath, that day has become widely referred to in Australia as Black Saturday.

From 28–30 January, Melbourne broke records by sweltering through three consecutive days above 43 °C (109 °F), with the temperature peaking at 45.1 °C (113.2 °F) on 30 January, the third hottest day in the city's history. The heatwave was caused by a slow moving high-pressure system that settled over the Tasman Sea, with a combination of an intense tropical low located off the North West Australian coast and a monsoon trough over northern Australia, which produced ideal conditions for hot tropical air to be directed down over southeastern Australia. [ 11]The February fires commenced on a day when several localities across the state, including Melbourne, recorded their highest temperatures since records began in 1859. ["

"text": "Edit Article How to Adjust LCD Monitor Height If you work in front of a computer on a consistent basis, it is important to adjust the height of your monitor and place it into a position that prevents yourself from experiencing neck, back, and shoulder pain. In some cases, your computer monitor may even need to be adjusted to alleviate strain on your eyes from glares caused by windows or overhead lights. Since there are many models of liquid crystal display (LCD) monitors made by different manufacturers, there is no one way to adjust the height of your LCD monitor; however, you can follow the guidelines presented in this article to ensure that your LCD monitor is positioned ergonomically for your benefit. Steps1 Position the LCD monitor directly in front of you at your workspace. If your monitor is positioned too far to the left or right, you may eventually develop shoulder and neck pain from constantly turning your head to glance at the monitor. If you have a job that does not require you to look consistently at the LCD monitor for hours at a time, such as a position in a retail store or bank, you can position the monitor off to one side to allow for efficient communication with customers.2 Position the LCD monitor so that your eyes are level with the top of the screen. This will prevent pain from developing in your shoulders and neck from tilting your head back if the screen is too high, or from having severe neck pain due to constantly tilting your head forward if the screen is too low. Adjust the height of your LCD monitor so that your eyes are level with the section of your screen that is between 2 and 3 inches (5.08 and 7.62 cm) below the very top of the monitor. If you wear bifocal or trifocal glasses, you may need to lower the height of your monitor by a few extra inches so that you can efficiently see the computer screen.3 Place your monitor in a workspace that will not be affected by any glares. If your LCD monitor reflects the light from windows or overhead lights, you may experience headaches caused by squinting your eyes or have difficulty viewing the screen, regardless of the monitor's height."

"title": "https://www.ehlers-danlos.com/eds-types/\nEDS Types",
"text": "Ehlers-Danlos syndromes are a group of connective tissue disorders that can be inherited and are varied both in how affect the body and in their genetic causes. They are generally characterized by joint hypermobility (joints that stretch further than normal), skin hyperextensibility (skin that can be stretched further than normal), and tissue fragility. ( For information about the hypermobility spectrum disorders, please visit “ About HSD ”. ) The Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS) are currently classified in a system of thirteen subtypes. Each EDS subtype has a set of clinical criteria that help guide diagnosis; a patient’s physical signs and symptoms will be matched up to the major and minor criteria to identify the subtype that is the most complete fit. There is substantial symptom overlap between the EDS subtypes and the other connective tissue disorders including hypermobility spectrum disorders, as well as a lot of variability, so a definitive diagnosis for all the EDS subtypes—except for hypermobile EDS (h EDS)—also calls for confirmation by testing to identify the responsible variant for the gene affected in each subtype. Molecular diagnostic strategies should rely on NGS technologies, which offer the potential for parallel sequencing of multiple genes. Targeted resequencing of a panel of genes is a time- and cost-effective approach. When no mutation (or in case of an autosomal recessive condition only one mutation) is identified, this approach should be complemented with a copy number variant (CNV) detection strategy to identify large deletions or duplications. For those who meet the minimal clinical requirements for an EDS subtype—but who have no access to molecular confirmation; or whose genetic testing shows one (or more) gene variants of uncertain significance in the genes identified for one of the EDS subtypes; or in whom no causative variants are identified in any of the EDS-subtype-specific genes—a “provisional clinical diagnosis” of an EDS subtype can be made."

My Secure Shell is a solution which has been made to bring more features to sftp/scp protocol given by Open SSH. By default, Open SSH brings a lot of liberty to connected users which imply to thrust in your users. The goal of My Secure Shell is to offer the power and security of Open SSH, with enhanced features (like ACL) to restrict connected users. My Secure Shell was created because of the lack of file transfer features in Open SSH. Open SSH was not designed as a file transfer solution, that’s why we made My Secure Shell. My Secure Shell Features Bandwidth control Only authorized files and folders can be shown Advanced logging information ACL can be made with IP/Usernam/Groups/Virtual Host/... Confined environments (chroot, which is also available in the latests version of Open SSH) Restrict users to have sftp only (shell access is disabled by default)Install My Secure Shell on Ubuntu 15.04Open the terminal and run the following commandsudo apt-get install mysecureshell This will complete the SFTP server installation.

"text": "\"Now that Walmart Stores ( WMT) , the company behind the Walmart retail empire, has announced earnings, let's look to technical analysis to come up with an objective approach for trading the stock. Forget whether the earnings were \"\"good\"\" or \"\"bad,\"\" and tune out the emotional reactions of media pundits. Below is the long-term view of the price action of this company's stock price in the form of a monthly bar chart. The most relevant part of it is the price action since the stock's low in 2007. This is where its last significant low occurred, which marked the correction off the peak in the year 2000. Read on to see the alert that members of our DSE Alerts service received in the past 24 hours. Click here to see the following chart in a new window That peak is best labeled at wave (3) up from the 1996 low, which was wave (2). So, the 2007 decline ended wave (4), and wave (5) rose from there to the high in early 2015, which is shown above, and completes the entire bull market of this stock from 1972. Now, with this situational awareness in mind, the dynamics of the decline from the $87 price peak to the 55 initial low in 2015 can inform us about the current overbought condition, and the necessity of action at this price level. That low last year is part, but not all, of a multiyear correction that is owed to this phenomenal company's story."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Census taker visits a Romani family living in a caravan, Netherlands 1925A census is the procedure of systematically acquiring and recording information about the members of a given population. The term is used mostly in connection with national population and housing censuses; other common censuses include agriculture, business, and traffic censuses. The United Nations defines the essential features of population and housing censuses as \"\"individual enumeration, universality within a defined territory, simultaneity and defined periodicity\"\", and recommends that population censuses be taken at least every 10 years. United Nations recommendations also cover census topics to be collected, official definitions, classifications and other useful information to co-ordinate international practice. [ 1] [2]The word is of Latin origin: during the Roman Republic, the census was a list that kept track of all adult males fit for military service. The modern census is essential to international comparisons of any kind of statistics, and censuses collect data on many attributes of a population, not just how many people there are but now census takes its place within a system of surveys where it typically began as the only national demographic data collection. Although population estimates remain an important function of a census, including exactly the geographic distribution of the population, statistics can be produced about combinations of attributes e.g. education by age and sex in different regions. Current administrative data systems allow for other approaches to enumeration with the same level of detail but raise concerns about privacy and the possibility of biasing estimates. [ 3]A census can be contrasted with sampling in which information is obtained only from a subset of a population; typically main population estimates are updated by such intercensal estimates. Modern census data are commonly used for research, business marketing, and planning, and as a baseline for designing sample surveys by providing a sampling frame such as an address register."

The physical structure of the schema consists of the object definitions. The schema itself is stored in the directory. The schema is stored in its own partition (the schema partition) in the directory. The schema is replicated among all the domain controllers in the forest, and any change that is made to the schema is replicated to every domain controller in the forest. Because the schema dictates how information is stored, and because any changes that are made to the schema affect every domain controller, changes to the schema should be made only when necessary — through a tightly controlled process — after testing has been performed to ensure that there will be no adverse effects on the rest of the forest. Note In Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003, the directory service is named Active Directory. In Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, the directory service is named Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). The rest of this topic refers to Active Directory, but the information is also applicable to Active Directory Domain Services. Active Directory Schema Architecture In Active Directory, the schema defines the following: Objects that are used to store data in the directory The rules that govern the structure of those objects The structure and the content of the directory itself These definitions consist of objects, attributes, and classes, which are described in the following section."

However, if your forest has multiple trees, determining which tree root is the forest root isn't so easy--no simple GUI view can give you this information. However, you can identify the forest root by performing either of the following series of steps on a machine that's a member of the forest: Start Notepad and copy the following commands into the application: Set obj Sys Info = Create Object (\"\"ADSystem Info\"\") Wscript.

The name Romania, and its derivatives, come from the Latin word 'Romanus' (citizen of Rome), a legacy of the Roman Empire who took control of ancient Dacia (today Romania) in 106 A. D. Romanian retains a significant number of features of old Latin and also contains words taken from the surrounding Slavic languages, as well as from French, German, Greek and Turkish. Romanian is actually easier for English speakers to understand than it is assumed. If you've studied other Romance language, such as Italian, Spanish, French or Portuguese, you may feel at home sooner than you think. Romanian is a phonetic language, so words are pronounced as they are spelled. Romanian holds the intriguing status of being the only Romance language spoken in Eastern Europe. A foreigner trying to learn or speak Romanian can expect positive reactions from native speakers. Most Romanian will certainly appreciate the fact that you are making an effort to speak their language. Other languages used in Romania English has quickly overtaken French as the country's second language, especially with the young people.

An echocardiogram (also called echo, transthoracic echocardiogram or TTE, exercise or stress echocardiogram, dobutamine stress echocardiogram or DSE, or transesophageal echocardiogram or TEE) is a noninvasive (the skin is not pierced) procedure used to assess the heart's function and structures. A transducer (like a microphone) sends out ultrasonic sound waves at a frequency too high to be heard. When the transducer is placed on your chest at certain locations and angles, the ultrasonic sound waves move through the skin and other body tissues to the heart tissues, where the waves echo off of the heart structures. The transducer picks up the reflected waves and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the echoes into images of the heart walls and valves. Click Image to Enlarge An echocardiogram can utilize one or more of four special types of echocardiography: M-Mode echocardiography: This is the simplest type of echocardiography. It produces an image that is similar to a line tracing rather than an actual picture of heart structures. M-mode echo is useful for measuring heart structures, such as the heart's pumping chambers, the size of the heart itself, and the thickness of the heart walls. Doppler echocardiography: This Doppler technique is used to measure and assess the flow of blood through the heart's chambers and valves."

In general the law imposes a range of duties of employers, the self employed and employees as well as others such as designers, manufacturers or suppliers of articles and substances for use at work. These are expressed as broad general duties in the Health and Safety at Work (HSW) Act but are spelt out in more detail in subsidiary regulations such as those dealing with the management of health and safety and specific health and safety issues. While most modern health and safety law applies 'across-the-board', there are also additional regulations covering industry sectors such as construction, agriculture, railways, mines and quarries and major hazard and nuclear installations. Besides laying down duties the law also gives the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and Local Authority inspectors wide ranging powers - to prosecute and to issue notices halting dangerous work or requiring improvements. Guidance on complying with the law is contained in Approved Codes of Practice (ACo Ps) and HSE guidance notes. Guidance in British and International standards as well as industry guidance may also be relevant. Some of the key requirements of health and safety law can be summarised very briefly as follows: A - Employers1. General Duty of Care All employers have a duty to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare of their employees. They also have a duty to protect non-employees from risks arising out of their work activities. ["

This ensures that the reptiles in Australia are kept appropriately and that they are not taken from the wild but rather obtained from responsible sources. If you are stuck on how to get a reptile license, here is some information to help get you started. The General Process of Obtaining a Reptile License A reptile license is vital if you wish to own any kind of reptile. The process of obtaining one is different depending on which state or territory you live in but generally you will fill in an application form and send it to the relevant authority. The application will include your details, the seller’s details, any experience that you’ve had in owning reptiles before, and details of how you will be keeping the reptile. If a fee is involved, you will have to pay this as well. The authority is generally your state or territory’s fauna or wildlife authority. Be aware that you will have to demonstrate experience or knowledge in caring for certain reptiles (depending on what class of license you are applying for), and that your reptile will need to have been bred in captivity. It is illegal to keep reptiles that you have taken from the wild."

In two or three short sentences, he left you behind, babbling in technical gobblydegook that you couldn’t possibly follow — when all you really wanted to know was, “What should I get: DSL vs. Cable Internet?”Breathe easy. We’ll explain what the options are for faster Internet connections (which is what’s meant by “broadband” or ” High Speed Internet “), with just a teeny bit of “how it works” so you have some sense of what you’re choosing and why. In doing so, we here at Digital Landing don’t expect that you want to become a computer wizard. All you want, we assume, is the ability to get the advantages of fast Internet access: a computer that is always connected to the Internet , that permits you to zip around Web pages faster than you imagined possible, and that opens up a whole new set of ways to waste time online."

This is making the market more competitive, leading to a nice combination of lower prices and ever increasing download speeds. ( Interestingly, though, U. S. high-speed Internet moves at a turtle’s pace compared to the speeds available in other countries. ) On this page, we display high-speed Internet promotions from phone (DSL) and cable companies. The phone companies tend to offer multiple DSL plans, with higher prices associated with more download speed. If your Internet needs aren’t as intensive (e.g., checking e-mail and web browsing as opposed to gaming), you may find that a lower-end DSL offering can save you quite a bit of money, while still delivering a satisfying high-speed experience. For those living in areas not yet served by cable or DSL, Internet access by satellite or cellular network may be a viable alternative.

So your cable modem would go into the hub, each router would be connected to the hub, and each would configured to respond to one of your two static IPs. You could then connect your computers to one router or the other, as you saw fit. I'm just not sure why, in most cases, you'd want to do so.

What Is Cable Internet Connection? Through the use of a cable modem you can have a broadband Internet connection that is designed to operate over cable TV lines. Cable Internet connections works by using TV channel space for data transmission: certain channels are used for downstream transmission and other channels for upstream transmission. Because the coaxial cable used by cable TV provides much greater bandwidth than telephone lines, a cable and Internet modem can be used to achieve extremely fast access to the Web. This, combined with the fact that millions of homes are already wired for cable TV, has made cable Internet service something cable TV companies have really jumped onboard with. What Is Internet and Cable? Almost all cable service providers offer Internet and cable packages. This is usually a discounted subscription price for consumers who subscribe to both Internet and cable television (called a bundle). Some service providers may also bundle cellular and telephone service with the Internet and cable package."

Flag Is a cable modem the same as a wireless router? Answer by Omniomi Confidence votes 297Short Answer No. They are two completely different pieces of hardware. Long Answer A cable modem (MOdulator/DEModulator) modulates analog carrier signals from your internet service provider to digital information and visa versa. The modem provides you with the internet connection. A router (wireless or not) preforms the task of packet routing; determining which computer on a network is to receive which traffic. You can connect to the internet without a router, you cannot connect to the internet without some form of modem. However, some internet service providers are now combining modems and wireless routers into a single device. These devices if opened however are still one part modem one part router.4 people found this useful Was this answer useful?"

Second, the wire coming from the jack in the other room is the one you should put into the surge protector, then another wire from the surge protector to the phone. Third, the DSL connection to the computer will be connected directly to the DSL modem. To do all this properly when there is only one jack in the other room and the computer is in a different room, you will need an adapter. Using the existing wire from the jack in the other room, obtain and attach an adapter that is a female-to-female adapter. It looks like a rectangular attachment with a phone jack at each end. Plug that onto the existing wire from the other room."

To get around this a concept of NAT (Network Address Translation) was introduced. With NAT only the router needs to have public IP address (also called Gateway, usually a DSL or Cable Modem). All devices behind NAT router have private IP addresses - usually starting with 192.168 or 10. These addresses are only valid within the router network. A quite common example is a simple network with one gateway (say DSL or Cable modem). The gateway has a public (WAN) IP address and does NAT. All computers connected to this gateway get assigned a private IP address. The gateway takes care routing the data from / to computers connected to it. To make a computer connected to gateway accessible from interent a port forwarding setting is required."

If former, you just set up the router according to the manual, but skip all the parts about the internet access. If the latter, then you'll need a router that is capable of connecting to the hookup type you have, which in most wired cases would be by ethernet cable, but mobile connections can come in many forms, one of which is USB dongle or some kind of box attachable by USB. Wired ethernet is very simple; you just plug the router's external interface to the hookup line's ethernet socket (usually doesn't matter which, if it has several) and in most cases it will get connected and work out the box, and of course then you'll still need to set up the router according to the manual."

While the two devices may look similar, they each serve a difference purpose. Fortunately, the functions of the two devices are pretty easy to understand. A router is a small box that allows multiple computers to join the same network (see below). Netgear Router While early routers provided several Ethernet ports for wired connections, most modern routers offer wireless connectivity as well. These \"\"wireless routers\"\" often have one or two moveable antennas on the sides, though some models house the antennas inside the enclosure.

Cable and digital subscriber line (DSL) comprise the majority of Internet subscribers, though other options include fiber-optics, which has limited availability, and satellite, which is particularly popular in rural areas where a DSL or cable network is not always available. Cable modems deliver Internet access to residential users by drawing information from the same coaxial cable that delivers information to their TVs. DSL modems use the copper wiring in telephone lines to do the same thing. Consumers can sometimes obtain cable and DSL modems from their Internet Service Provider (ISP) or from electronics retailers.

"text": "\"Digital single-lens reflex camera From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search The photographer can see the subject before taking an image by the mirror. When taking an image the mirror will swing up and light will go to the sensor instead. Camera lens Reflex mirror Focal-plane shutter Image sensor Matte focusing screen Condenser lens Pentaprism / pentamirror Viewfinder eyepiece A digital single-lens reflex camera (also called a digital SLR or DSLR) is a digital camera that combines the optics and the mechanisms of a single-lens reflex camera with a digital imaging sensor, as opposed to photographic film. The reflex design scheme is the primary difference between a DSLR and other digital cameras. In the reflex design, light travels through the lens, then to a mirror that alternates to send the image to either the viewfinder or the image sensor. The traditional alternative would be to have a viewfinder with its own lens, hence the term \"\"single lens\"\" for this design. By using only one lens, the viewfinder of a DSLR presents an image that will not differ substantially from what is captured by the camera's sensor. A DSLR differs from non-reflex single-lens digital cameras in that the viewfinder presents a direct optical view through the lens, rather than being captured by the camera's image sensor and displayed by a digital screen. DSLRs largely replaced film-based SLRs during the 2000s, and despite the rising popularity of mirrorless system cameras in the early 2010s, DSLRs remain the most common type of interchangeable lens camera in use as of 2017.

A question I’m asked regularly by those about to make their first SLR purchase is, which camera should I buy, a Canon or Nikon brand? In short, whichever brand has the better price deal at the time of purchase. The truth is, in my opinion neither is better than the other. Those who point you to one or the other, are often biased and base their recommendations on their own personal preference. Of course if you ask a Canon photographer, they’ll say buy a Canon DSLR, and vice versa. This is often confusing for someone about to buy their first DSLR camera.

"text": "\"What Is Bokeh? Bokeh is a popular but sometimes misunderstood photography subject. Because it is so closely related to depth of field, sometimes people will confuse limited depth of field with bokeh, yet they are not the same. Depth of field refers to how much of the photo is in focus and bokeh refers to the visual quality of the out of focus area in the picture. The term bokeh comes from a Japanese word “boke” which carries a meaning of something that is blurry, hazy or fuzzy. It is commonly used to describe someone who is not thinking right or making silly mistakes and could be loosely translated as “fuzziness” or “confusion”. In photography it is used to describe the characteristics of the out of focus area in a photograph. While most people will recognize how “good bokeh” improves a picture when they see it, it is not always clear as to what separates “good bokeh” from “bad bokeh”…if there really is such a thing as “bad bokeh”. It might be better to think of bokeh in terms of good, better and best…since it is somewhat subjective and photographers even disagree as to exactly what it means. Different Understandings of Bokeh At its simplest or broadest meaning, the term bokeh is used to refer to the out of focus area in an image."

The upper layer of the film is a coating of gelatin containing crystal grains of silver halides. When the film is exposed to light, some Ag+ ions are excited to higher energy states and a few combine with electrons to form Ag which will act as nucleation centres in the development stage. At this point the l atent image is formed . When the film is developed with chemicals, an oxidation - reduction reaction takes place. The silver ions in the exposed regions are reduced to neutral silver atoms which coagulate to form metal grains."

It seems Rode is listening to bitter complaints like mine, and their latest microphone, the Video Mic GO, requires no dedicated battery.

It features an integrated Rycote Lyre shock mount for isolation from bumps and vibration (which is what I'm used to in my current Rode shotgun mic), and offers battery-free operation, using instead the plug-in power from your camera's 3.5mm microphone input, which to me is it's biggest selling point. The GO is a directional microphone. It utilizes a super-cardioid polar pattern to attenuate sounds from the sides, resulting in a signal that sounds closer to the camera, even when shooting in noisy environments or at moderate distances.

I decided to write a short article on how you can find the total shutter actuations on both Nikon and Canon DSLRs, in case you are interested in seeing how much you have been using your camera or how close your shutter speed is to the manufacturers’ rated shutter life of 150,000 (on most entry and mid-level cameras) or 300,000 (professional cameras).1) EXIF Data The information on the total shutter actuations on your camera is preserved in file headers, known as “metadata” or “EXIF”. If you do not know what EXIF is and what it is used for, check out my “ What is EXIF ” article that I wrote a while ago. Basically, your camera writes all exposure-related information such as date, time, shutter speed, aperture, ISO and a bunch of other important information into the header of each file. Some camera manufacturers like Nikon and Canon also add unique shutter actuations data fields that are used for seeing the total number of exposures or “shutter actuations” cameras have.2) Switch to JPEG format If you are shooting RAW, it is best to switch to JPEG format just for getting the required information from your camera. While the camera native RAW format preserves all of the EXIF information that is coming out of the camera, third party conversion software like Adobe Photoshop Lightroom can strip out some of the proprietary EXIF data, including the number of shutter actuations. Therefore, switching to JPEG will allow you to view EXIF data straight, without having to import the image into Lightroom or Photoshop first. It doesn’t matter what size of JPEG files you choose – even JPEG BASIC works fine. Once selected, take a picture of anything you want.3) Download EXIF viewer In order to view the proprietary EXIF information from files, you need to use an image EXIF viewer that does not strip out anything from the file. Unfortunately, almost all current image viewers only display generic EXIF data that most people use and ignore the rest."

"text": "\"Difference Between SLR and DSLR• Categorized under Objects | Difference Between SLR and DSLRPictures are an integral part in keeping memories. Before the days of digital photography, there was film. Although film has started to disappear from the general public view in the last few years, it’s where we begin our discussion. SLR or Single Lens Reflex camera are a class of cameras that allowed for much better photographs due to an innovative solution to an old problem. Most cameras have two light paths from the target, one leading to the lens itself while the other to the viewfinder. This leads to the final photo being slightly different from what you saw on the viewfinder. SLR cameras fixed this by using a certain mechanism that lets you see through the lens. After you push the button to take the picture, the mechanism then moves to let the light hit the film behind it. Most SLR’s are used in professional photography, where the need for utmost quality is very high. It would not be surprising that most of the advanced features also appear on SLRs and not on the common camera."

It seems like we have already reached the theoretical maximum for handling noise at high ISOs with the current generation sensor technology, so the manufacturers are now focusing their efforts in packing more resolution, while keeping sensor sizes the same in order to lure more customers to upgrade to the latest and greatest. In this article, I will try to explain some basic terminology in regards to resolution and hopefully help our readers in understanding camera resolution better. NIKON D3S @ 500mm, ISO 1600, 1/800, f/8Before we get started, let’s first talk about what resolution impacts and then we will address some of the common misconceptions.1) Camera Resolution: What it Affects In digital photography, camera resolution is associated with a number of different factors: Print Size – usually the most important factor. Basically, the more resolution, the larger the potential print size. Printing from digital images is accomplished by squeezing a certain number of Pixels Per Inch (PPI). A high quality print with good details usually involves printing at around 300 PPI, so the size of the potential print is calculated by taking image width and height and dividing them by the PPI number. For example, a 12.1 MP resolution image from the Nikon D700 has image dimensions of 4,256 x 2,832. If you wanted to create a high quality print with lots of details at 300 PPI, the print size would be limited to approximately 14.2″ x 9.4″ print (4,256 / 300 = 14.2 and 2,832 / 300 = 9.4). Larger prints would be possible, but they would require you to either drop the PPI to a lower number, or use special third party tools that use complex algorithms to upscale or “up-sample” an image to a higher resolution, which do not always yield good results."

"text": "Summary The Nikon D750 is a very capable high-end DSLR that successfully positions itself between the existing D610 and D810 - a slot which may, at first, seem unnecessary, but which has ended up delivering one of the most compelling models in the range. Nikon's been very careful with the feature-set, picking aspects of both models on either side of it, while adding others that make it unique and arguably the company's most forward-thinking full-frame DSLR to date. So the D750 gives you a 24 Megapixel full-frame sensor in a tough body that's weather-sealed to the same extent as the D810, a 51-point AF system that works in lower light than the models on either side of it, 6.5fps continuous shooting, 1080 video at 60p, 9-frame AEB, and becomes the first full-frame Nikon DSLR to feature an articulated screen and built-in Wifi. It lacks the ultimate resolving power of the D810, not to mention its 1/8000 shutter and PC Sync port, but costs around $1000 USD less while also including Wifi and the tilting screen. It's become my favourite DSLR in the current Nikon line-up. Buy it now!, B&H, or Adorama. Alternatively you could treat me to a coffee!Nikon D750 review12th November 2014 Written by Gordon Laing Intro Quality Samples Verdict Intro The Nikon D750 is a full-frame DSLR aimed at enthusiast photographers. Announced in September 2014, it’s positioned between the D610 and the D810 as a new model, and not officially as a replacement for the D700 – although some owners of that model will undoubtedly be weighing-up their upgrade options. Nikon’s equipped the D750 with what it describes as a new 24.3 Megapixel FX-format sensor, sharing the same resolution as the D610, but with a higher maximum sensitivity of 12800 ISO (51200 extended) and support for 1080 video at 50p and 60p."

"text": "\"Macro Photography for Beginners A Post By: Barrie Smith The advent of digital photography swept away one of the most challenging problems in image capture: how to shoot macro without a pile of specialised gear. Now you can get down, dirty and close in the image capture business and make macro the digital way with a 100 per cent success rate. I know I’m not alone when I say that macro photography is an absorbing activity: to be able to reach into ‘near space’ and record an image that is not easily visible to the naked eye is an attractive option. There is nothing more satisfying than to make a huge print of an insect, mineral specimen or any small object that is normally so tiny to the naked eye and captured with the technique of macro photography. To shoot macro in the days of film — aside from the requirement of using an SLR camera — you needed a few add-ons to take highly magnified images of extremely small subjects. You could begin by slipping a diopter lens to the front of the existing standard lens … this would impart a degree of magnification; you could also install extension tubes between your normal lens and the camera body; you could also acquire a set of macro bellows and place them between lens and body; and finally, you could invest in a fairly expensive — and optically superb — macro lens that was dedicated to macro shooting; another option was to fit a reversing ring that allowed you to fit the lens on backwards … this improved the lens close up resolution and allowed to you to focus much more closely. But to be honest, it was a hassle — although you can still use these methods if using a DSLR to shoot macro. These days, digital does it with a dash! With a digital camera — compact or DSLR — even newbies are surprised by how easy it is capture really, really big shots of tiny subjects. In truth, you can make digital macro photography as basic or as complex as you wish it to be: even with a budget, $200-special digicam you can capture images of the tiny world before you, subjects as small as a matchbox, a match-head or even tinier."

"text": "Best Full-Frame DSLRs 2016What Digital Camera August 2, 20160 shares Full-frame DSLRs offer the very best in image quality, but which one is best suited to you? We've pick a selection of the best full-frame DSLRs to help you decide TAGS: Featured The term ‘full frame’ refers to a full-frame sensor that’s the same size as an individual frame of traditional 35mm film. The advantages of full-frame sensors over smaller digital camera sensors, such as APS-C or Micro Four Thirds, are numerous. For starters, the larger surface area of a full-frame chip means that the individual light-capturing photodiodes (pixels) can be larger, which in turn improves performance in low light. Creatively speaking, another advantage of full-frame sensors is that it’s possible to attain a shallower depth of field compared to their smaller-sensor comrades. As a result, full-frame sensors are considered to deliver the very best in image quality; although they do feature high price tags, so you’ll want to be sure you’re picking the right full-frame camera. Key points of a full-frame camera Sensor Full-frame cameras are well known for producing the best performance in low light, thanks to their large photodiodes (pixels)Pop-up flash Not all full-frame cameras feature a pop-up flash, so for extra illumination you’ll require a hotshoemounted flashgun Lenses Full-frame cameras can only be used with full-frame lenses.

"text": "Mirrorless camera buying guide Published Dec 15, 2011 | Richard Butler Share Updated September 2013The eternal question, 'What camera should I buy?' became more complicated with the fairly recent emergence of a new breed of cameras promising to fill a gap in the market. Previously it was a fairly simple decision - you bought a DSLR if you were most concerned about image quality, operational speed and taking control of what the camera did, or you bought one of the various sub-types of small-sensored compact camera if you prioritized pocketability, ease-of-use, price or zoom range. There were some attempts to bridge the gap - superzoom compacts and high-end enthusiast models often offered extensive manual controls - but there was no real middle ground. Traditionally, the only real options for digital photographers have either been compact cameras which have very small image sensors, or the considerably larger - in both sensor and body dimensions - DSLR designs. That middle ground is where you'll find Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Cameras. These cameras take the large sensor and interchangeable lenses that help DSLRs produce such good images, and combine them with the technologies that underpin compact cameras - providing a shooting experience that will be nice and familiar to compact camera users. Mirrorless cameras have tended to fall into roughly two basic designs. There are models that resemble the classic Rangefinder style (like the Fujifilm X-E1, above... ...and those which resemble scaled-down DSLRs, like the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH3 on the right. Mirrorless cameras (also known as Compact System Cameras, amongst other names) first appeared with the launch of the Micro Four Thirds system from Panasonic and Olympus in 2008."

Starting from Nikon’s 850, Canon EOS 5D Mark IV or Nikon’s D500 meet all their needs at a significantly lower price point. I know it’s costly but, if you’re looking for a client and business then you need to spend money. There is not alternative. In return you’ll get better Photo Quality Speed Flexibility Now talking about DSLR for Amateur To begin with first think of what kind of functions do u require. If it’s one of your hobby, you may as well start with a camera that will let you do everything. A good entry-level DSLR will give you the ability to shoot in manual mode, provide decent low-light performance, and have an endless array of lenses to choose from.

When Canon introduced the 5D Mark II, it stunned crowds with its video quality and price, but it lacked a big mass-market feature: autofocus during video recording. Several more recent Canon DSLRs such as the T4i, T5i and SL1 feature full-time continuous AF for video recording, but they still rely heavily on slower and sometimes-jerky contrast-detect autofocus to fine-tune focus. With the 70D, Canon has introduced its all-new Dual Pixel CMOS AF, replacing the Hybrid AF systems found in the aforementioned models with one that splits each individual pixel on the imager into its own phase-detect AF sensor, with no need to fine-tune via contrast detection. Phase-detect AF, the same AF technology DSLRs use for shooting with the optical viewfinder, provides much faster and smoother autofocus for DSLR video shooting. Canon is putting interchangeable lens video/still cameras like the Panasonic GH3 squarely in its sights. The GH2 and GH3 made big leaps in the HD-DSLR/MILC video space with lots of video-centric features like higher bitrates, an articulated LCD screen, as well as full-time AF for video. With the 70D, Canon is blending features of their higher-end DSLRs, such as offering both ALL-I and IPB formats and time code (though not SMTPE) from the 6D and 5D Mark III, with the articulated LCD of the 60D (adding a capacitive touchscreen in the process), all at a very reasonable price point. And this whole package is built upon a game-changing AF system that will not only provide major competition to other MILCs and HD-DSLRs, but some segments of the camcorder market as well. Other video specs of the 70D are fairly standard fare for Canon DSLRs."

There are, however, two main types of cameras available today, the DSLR (or SLR) and the point and shoot. If you are seeking a dedicated camera (not found on your phone) to take great photographs, you will want to consider one of these cameras. Each comes with their own advantages and disadvantages, yet there is a camera available for every level of photography. What is a Point and Shoot Camera? Point and shoot cameras mean just that: point the camera at something and shoot a picture. The camera does all the work for you. Unfortunately, the camera is rarely as smart as the photographer so the results can be iffy. Point and shoot cameras are often abbreviated as P&S and are sometimes referred to as compact cameras. These cameras started out as a fixed lens that focused about 4 feet in front of the camera with a fixed aperture and shutter speed."

There is no one best or right underwater camera to buy, but rather the best or right camera for your specific needs and budget. Fortunately, with the growth of underwater photography, manufactures have been forced to cater to a wide range of desires and demands, resulting in an underwater camera option for every level of photographer. To be clear, other than several discontinued film models, there are no actual underwater cameras. To shoot underwater photography you will need a digital camera and a waterproof housing designed specifically for that camera. Sometimes the camera and housing are sold together, but more often they are not, or the housing manufacturer is a third party to the camera brand. That being said, recently manufacturers have begun to produce waterproof digital cameras, but the current depth rating is limited to 30 feet, and often even less. For this underwater camera guide we will use the term “underwater camera” to describe any combination of camera and housing that can be used underwater. The best way to use the guide is to learn about the criteria required in your decision making process, browse or search our Underwater Photography Equipment Guide, and then contact an underwater photography retailer to discuss current models and options. The best advice is to select the camera based on available underwater housings and accessory options."

Shutter speed is responsible for two particular things: changing the brightness of your photo, and creating dramatic effects by either freezing action or blurring motion. In this chapter of Photography Basics, we will explain everything you need to know about shutter speed, in very simple language. My shutter speed in this image: 1/30th second. What is a Camera Shutter? Shutter speed exists because of something known as your camera shutter – which, simply put, is a curtain in front of the camera sensor that stays closed until the camera fires. When the camera fires, the shutter opens and fully exposes the camera sensor to the light that has passed through your lens. After the sensor is done collecting the light, the shutter closes immediately, stopping the light from hitting the sensor. The button that fires the camera is also called “shutter” or “shutter button,” because it triggers the shutter to open and close. What is Shutter Speed?"

"text": "\"Agoraphobia Symptoms By Steve Bressert, Ph. D. ~ 1 min read The essential feature of agoraphobia is anxiety about being in (or anticipating) situations from which escape might be difficult or in which help may not be available in the event of having a panic attack (or panic-like symptoms). Oftentimes, when in this situation, an individual may have the vague thought that something dreadful may happen. Such concerns must persist for at least 6 months and occur virtually every time an individual encounters the place or situation. Agoraphobic fears typically involve characteristic clusters of situations that include being outside the home alone; being in a crowd or standing in a line; being on a bridge; and traveling in a bus, train, or automobile. More specifically, the diagnostic criteria in the DSM-5 requires that an individual experiences intense fear in response to (or when anticipating entering) at least 2 of the following 5 situations:1) using public transportation, such as automobiles, buses, trains, ships, or planes2) being in open spaces, such as parking lots, marketplaces, or bridges3) being in enclosed spaces, such as shops, theaters, or cinemas4) standing in line or being in a crowd5) being outside of the home alone A person who experiences agoraphobia avoids such situations (e.g., travel is restricted; the person changes daily routines) or else they are endured with significant distress. For example, people with agoraphobia often require the presence of a companion, such as a family member, partner, or friend, to confront the situation. Anxiety or phobic avoidance in agoraphobia can not be better accounted for by another mental disorder, such as social phobia (e.g., avoidance limited to social situations because of fear of embarrassment), specific phobia (e.g., avoidance limited to a single situation like elevators), obsessive-compulsive disorder (e.g., avoidance of dirt in someone with an obsession about contamination), posttraumatic stress disorder (e.g., avoidance of stimuli associated with a severe stressor), or separation anxiety disorder (e.g., avoidance of leaving home or relatives). As with all mental disorders, the symptoms listed above are not due to the direct physiological effects of a use or abuse of a substance (e.g., alcohol, drugs, medications) or a general medical condition. As a recent change to its diagnostic criteria (from DSM-IV to the updated 2013 DSM-5) the diagnosis of panic disorder is not required for that of agoraphobia."

"text": "\"Allowing Transgender People to Serve in the US Military Is 'Inevitable'Photo by Neil Ward Americas Allowing Transgender People to Serve in the US Military Is 'Inevitable'By Jordan Larson August 29, 2014 | 6:50 am Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel made headlines in May when he said that the policy excluding transgender people from serving in the military should \"\"continually be reviewed,\"\" and that he \"\"would be open\"\" to rethinking the ban. His remarks led many to hope that a change in regulations for transgender service members could happen in the near future. Since the 2010 repeal of \"\"Don't Ask, Don't Tell\"\" — a policy enacted by the Bill Clinton administration that required gay and lesbian service members to remain closeted about their sexuality — the campaign to end the exclusion of transgender people in the military has also picked up steam. This effort was aided by reports from the Palm Center think tank in March 2014 and the Williams Institute at the UCLA School of Law in May, which estimate that around 15,500 people currently serving in the US military are transgender. Data from the National Transgender Discrimination Survey and the US Census Bureau shows that there are about 134,300 transgender veterans, and that military service is more common among transgender people than it is among the general American population. No data is available on whether these individuals are pre- or post-transition. With the support of a number of retired generals, the Palm Center, which focuses on gender and sexuality in the military, released another report on Tuesday on how to navigate and implement the necessary policy changes to allow transgender people to openly serve. \"\" We have men and women around America that are willing to serve, that would like to come in, or are actively serving, and what we ask them to do when they're inside the military — to pretend that they're not transgender — is just wrong,\"\" Gale Pollock, former acting surgeon general of the US Army and co-chair of the commission that produced the report, told VICE News.

Hinderliter Department of Linguistics University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana, USA Email: [email protected] Abstract The development of the classification of the paraphilias is considered, with emphasis on justifications for their inclusion in DSM-III in light of the declassification of homosexual- ity. These justifications are found to be tenuous and do not work for the paraphilias in DSM-III-R because of changes made. Rationale for these changes is discussed based on inquires made to DSM-III-R paraphilias committee members. Changes in DSM-IV and DSM-IV-TR are also discussed. After considering and critiquing more recent argu- ments for including the paraphilias in the DSM, recommendations are made regarding proposals for DSM-5, whether the paraphilias belong in the DSM, and whether they should be used in SVP commitment. Keywords: Paraphilias, DSM-5, SVP Commitment DSM-IV-TR (American Psychiatric Association, 2000b) defines a paraphilia as, “recur- rent, intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors generally involving 1) nonhuman objects, 2) the suffering or humiliation of oneself or one’s partner, or 3) children or other nonconsenting persons” (p. 566); over at least six months. DSM-IV-TR lists eight paraphilias: exhibitionism, fetishism, frotteurism, pedophilia, sexual maso- chism, sexual sadism, transvestic fetishism, and voyeurism. It also has a not otherwise specified category (NOS) for less common paraphilias. In DSM-II (American Psychiatric Association, 1968), they were called sexual deviations, which is where homosexuality had been listed. Whether the paraphilias should even be in the DSM has been contro- versial, with a number of authors (e.g. Moser and Kleinplatz, 2005; Silverstein, 1984; Suppe, 1984;), arguing that the logic behind the removal of homosexuality should lead to the removal of all of these diagnoses."

Learn more about these medical coding systems. CPT Codes (Current Procedural Terminology)Adam Berry / Stringer / Getty Images These codes are developed by the American Medical Association to describe every type of service a healthcare provider may provide to a patient. They are used to make a list of those services to submit to insurance, Medicare, or another payer for reimbursement purposes. Patients may be interested in looking at CPT codes to better understand the services their doctor provided, to double-check their bills, or negotiate lower pricing for their healthcare services. HCPCS Codes (Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System)HCPCS codes are used by Medicare and are based on CPT codes. Patients who use Medicare, especially those who have needed ambulance services or other devices outside of the doctor's office, may want to learn more about HCPCS codes. Level one HCPCS codes mirror CPT codes and are used to identify medical services and procedures ordered by physicians or other licensed professionals. Level two HCPCS codes are alphanumeric and identify non-physician services such as ambulance services, durable medical equipment, and pharmacy."

"text": "DMDD: The Wrong Diagnosis in the Wrong Place Finishing the DSM-5 Jigsaw Puzzle Posted Dec 14, 2013SHARETWEETEMAILMORESource: The second section of DSM-5 is the heart of the system; it contains 23 categories of psychiatric illness and their diagnostic criteria. For example, these categories include Depressive Disorders, Bipolar and Related Disorders and Neurodevelopmental Disorders. Within each category of psychiatric illness specific diagnoses and their diagnostic criteria are described. The category under which an illness is listed creates an expectation that the illness is related to the category. For example, in DSM-IV, obsessive compulsive disorder was grouped under the Anxiety Disorders category, which reflected the understanding of the time that obsessive compulsive disorder was an anxiety disorder. In DSM-5 it is not listed under the category of Anxiety Disorders but is instead now in its own category. It is no longer considered an anxiety disorder. The category in which an illness is placed can have great influence on clinicians’ efforts to understand and treat a disorder. The warranted assumption is that the listed illness has some possible relationship to the category that it is in as well as to other illnesses listed in the same category. There are at least some shared symptoms between disorders in the same category and the etiology and the treatment of the disorders might be similar."

[ 2]Relational disorders involve two or more individuals and a disordered \"\"juncture\"\", whereas typical Axis I psychopathology describes a disorder at the individual level. An additional criterion for a relational disorder is that the disorder cannot be due solely to a problem in one member of the relationship, but requires pathological interaction from each of the individuals involved in the relationship. [ 2]For example, if a parent is withdrawn from one child but not another, the dysfunction could be attributed to a relational disorder. In contrast, if a parent is withdrawn from both children, the dysfunction may be more appropriately attributable to a disorder at the individual level. ["

King The fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders ( DSM-5; APA, 2013) continues its 60-year legacy as a standard reference for clinical practice in the mental health field. Six mental health disorders are reviewed with a focus on changes between the DSM-IV-TR and the DSM-5 that represent the new landscape for each of these disorders, respectively. Following the summary of changes, a clinical scenario is presented so that counselors can capture the vision of using the DSM-5 in their counseling practice. Clinical formulation (sample diagnosis) using the DSM-5 is also presented for each disorder classification. Keywords: DSM-5, DSM-IV-TR, private practice, clinical formulation, mental disorders The fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders ( DSM-5; APA, 2013) continues its 60-year legacy as a standard reference for clinical practice in the mental health field. This practical, functional and flexible guide is intended for use by trained counselors in a wide diversity of contexts and facilitates a common language to communicate the necessary characteristics of mental disorders present in their clients (APA, 2013). As counselors use the DSM-5, they will notice an expanded discussion of developmental and life span considerations, cultural issues, gender differences, integration of scientific findings from the latest research in genetics and neuroimaging, and enhanced use of course, descriptive and severity specifiers for diagnostic precision (APA, 2013). They will also notice a dimensional approach to diagnosis, consolidation and restructuring of most mental disorders; a new definition of a mental disorder; and emerging assessments and monitoring tools so as to promote enhanced clinical case formulation. The intent of this article is to assist all counseling specialists by presenting six clinical scenarios from the author’s counseling practice. The article begins by summarizing the clinical utility of the DSM-5 and provides recommendations for counselors on how to sequence their study of the new manual."

The application uses ODBC functions through an ODBC driver manager with which it is linked, and the driver passes the query to the DBMS. An ODBC driver can be thought of as analogous to a printer driver or other driver, providing a standard set of functions for the application to use, and implementing DBMS-specific functionality. An application that can use ODBC is referred to as \"\"ODBC-compliant\"\". Any ODBC-compliant application can access any DBMS for which a driver is installed. Drivers exist for all major DBMSs, many other data sources like address book systems and Microsoft Excel, and even for text or comma-separated values (CSV) files. ODBC was originally developed by Microsoft and Simba Technologies during the early 1990s, and became the basis for the Call Level Interface (CLI) standardized by SQL Access Group in the Unix and mainframe field."

By Martyn Williams Senior Correspondent, IDG News Service |Jul 14, 2015 4:30 PM PTNASAMore like this Gigantic Changes Keep Space Technology Hot Mars Rover FAQs: What's Next NASA image gallery offers a peek at more than 100,000 breathtaking space photos Video World Tech Update - Apple Watch, Chromebook Pixel, NASA rocket NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft is delivering amazing images of Pluto, but receiving them from 3 billion miles (4.8 billion kilometers) away is no easy feat. The strength of the radio signals, the time it takes the signal to travel back and forth and the speed of the data flow all present challenges, but it’s all in a day’s work for NASA’s Deep Space Network. Think of it as the long-distance phone company for the solar system and beyond. The DSN consists of a network of huge satellite dishes spread across three sites—near Barstow in California; near Madrid in Spain; and near Canberra in Australia. Those locations are about 120 degrees in longitude apart to give wide coverage of the skies, so before a spacecraft is lost by one antenna, another one can pick it up. The sensitive antennas work alone or in groups and communicate with about 30 space probes each month, said Jeff Osman, contact technical manager for the Deep Space Network, in an interview. For New Horizons, the first images of its closest Pluto fly-by will be received by 70-meter antennas at the Madrid and Barstow sites, he said. NASA/Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory/Southwest Research Institute Pluto nearly fills the frame in this image from the Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) aboard NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft, taken on July 13, 2015, when the spacecraft was 476,000 miles (768,000 kilometers) from the surface."

"text": "Installation Overview Location Fort Hunter Liggett (FHL), CA. is the largest U. S. Army Reserve Command post with approximately 165,000 acres. FHL is located in Monterey County, in the central coast of California, 150 miles south of San Francisco and 250 miles north of Los Angeles. The installation is bounded on the north by the Salinas Valley, on the east by the foothills of the Santa Lucia Mountains, on the south by the Monterey/San Luis Obispo county line and on the west by approximately 55 miles of Los Padres National Forest. In the summer months daytime temperatures may be 100 degrees or higher but soon after sunset, temperature drops rapidly and the nights are cool and pleasant. Winter temperatures are cool and frost is not uncommon. The rainy season usually is between December and February when the average annual 21-inch rainfall is expected to fall. History Fort Hunter Liggett has been an active Army installation since 1940 when the US Government purchased the land from publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst, Jr. and neighboring landowners. Originally designated Hunter Liggett Military Reservation in 1941, the installation is named for Lieutenant General Hunter Liggett (1857 – 1935). General Hunter Liggett commanded the 41st National Guard Division, and later, the First Corps of the American Expeditionary Forces during World War 1."

"text": "\"Juno Spacecraft Juno was carefully designed to meet the tough challenges in flying a mission to Jupiter: weak sunlight, extreme temperatures and deadly radiation. The spacecraft is covered in thermal blankets to protect it from the extreme environment of space. All of the most-sensitive electronics are placed inside an armored vault to shield them from Jupiter’s deadly radiation. OVERVIEWCommunication COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMHow does Juno communicate with Earth when it is hundreds of millions of miles away? Communication SYSTEMJuno keeps in touch with Earth via a sophisticated two-way radio and antennas that link to NASA’s Deep Space Network. Because the spacecraft will travel so far from Earth, it can’t be steered in real time by mission controllers. A signal sent from Earth would take about 45 minutes to reach Jupiter, and it would take another 45 minutes to receive the spacecraft’s reply. This is why Juno (and other spacecraft that operate at great distances) must be able to carry out tasks automatically, following lists of instructions from Earth, and reporting its current status and the data gathered by its science instruments. For example, if Juno encounters a problem and enters the standby condition known as safe mode, the spacecraft will automatically reposition itself so that the solar arrays are pointed at the sun, and then wait for instructions from Earth. The spacecraft has five antennas, including the largest and primary communication antenna, known as the high-gain antenna."

"text": "The Difference Between DNS and Name Servers The DNS (Domain Name System) is a massive network of servers that comprises the largest digital database on the planet. This database is maintained, managed and regulated by several internet authorities, including the IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) and ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers). Many people confuse the various terms associated with the DNS and mistakenly refer to them as either the same thing or completely separate entities. In truth, they are neither separate nor are they the same thing; rather, they are integral pieces to the puzzle that is the world wide web. If you're interested in learning the difference between a DNS and a name server, then you may want to consider the following information. What is the DNS? Contrary to a seemingly popular misconception, DNS does not stand for Domain Name Server or Domain Name Software. DNS is an abbreviation for the aforementioned system that catalogs every domain and IP address on the internet, including registration information, as well as their relation to other domains and web hosts. The DNS is the central database of the internet, and without it, the internet would cease to exist as we know it. Before the domain name system was devised, computers would connect to each other via IP addresses, which are strings of segmented numbers separated by dots."

"text": "\"Mars (planet) Space Exploration Outer Space Planetary Science Earth (planet)How far is Mars away from Earth? How many days, weeks, months, or years would it take to get there?13 Answers Quora User Updated Dec 4, 2016 · Author has 1.9k answers and 2.6m answer views Originally Answered: How far away are we from Mars? A2A It depends on the time of year, as we orbit the sun once every 365 days or so, and Mars goes around once every 687 days. Launches to Mars must wait for a window of opportunity which only opens once every 25 months or so. There are several satellites in Mars orbit, and the DSN communicates with them periodically. If you go to the DSN site, you can see the distance to those satellites on any day you wish - depending on DSN scheduling. Deep Space Network Now Mars Express, Mars Odyssey, Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, and PSLV-C25/Mars Orbiter Mission - ISRO (MOM India - tracked separately by IDSN [ Ground Segment - ISRO] and complemented by the DSN) are all orbiting Mars now, and another probe is enroute. The DSN short names for these missions are MEX, MO10, MRO, and MOM respectively. Click on the DSN satellite dish communicating with any of these missions to view the distance to Mars in km and in light time (round trip) on any day. It will be displayed in the list box on the right-hand margin."

No need for concern though. It's been my experience that PA's are not doctors only in a literal sense. One of the main differences between PA education and physician education is not the core content of the curriculum, but the amount of time spent in formal education. In addition to time in school, physicians are required to do an internship, and the majority also complete a residency in a specialty following that. PA's do not have to undertake an internship or residency.10 people found this useful Was this answer useful?"

"text": "Start: May 2015End: September 2016Under the Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) program, states have a unique opportunity to advance delivery system and payment reform projects in Medicaid. New York’s DSRIP initiative, approved in 2014 for over $6 billion, includes a broad set of health and social service providers, called Performing Provider Systems, to drive transformational delivery system integration. The Center for Health Care Strategies (CHCS) worked with the Public Consulting Group to facilitate the New York State Performing Provider Systems (PPS) Learning Network, in partnership with the New York State Department of Health. Given both the complexity of the DSRIP projects and the standardization across projects, the PPS Learning Network created a valuable forum for participating providers across New York State to share best practices in project design and implementation. In its role as lead coordinator, CHCS oversaw a series of in-person regional and statewide meetings, monthly calls and webinars, and an online forum for information sharing. Topics for in-person and virtual sessions covered key themes, including: (1) challenges related to care delivery process re-design; (2) provider supports/training and staffing; (3) information technology infrastructure (i.e., data collection and monitoring); and (4) considerations for transitioning from process to outcomes-based performance. CHCS also facilitated information exchange across regional “Performance Facilitators” who provide on-site coaching to participating providers and help guide them through the implementation of DSRIP projects. Key lessons from New York’s DSRIP activities will be synthesized and shared publicly.

"text": "What is Frame Relay? A packet-switching technology offered as a telecommunications service by telcos and long-distance carriers, used primarily for WAN links. Frame relay can be used to encapsulate local area network (LAN) traffic such as Ethernet frames for transmission over digital data transmission lines for wide area networks (WANs), and can connect multiple LANs to form a multipoint WAN. Frame relay technology was originally an offshoot of Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) digital communication technology. How It Works - Frame Relay Frame relay technology is a packet-switching service that is similar in operation to, and considered the replacement for, the older X.25 packet-switching technology - but it provides higher performance and has a greater efficiency because it is a more streamlined protocol. For example, while X.25 includes error-correction functions, frame relay leaves error correction up to the station endpoints in order to speed up WAN communications. When errors do occur, frame relay drops the offending frame and retransmits the data. Frame relay also does not support the hop-by-hop flow control functions that X.25 supports, which further streamlines frame relay operation. As in other packet-switching networks, frame relay operates by breaking network data into “packets” and tagging each packet with a destination address. Each packet is then relayed through the switching nodes that make up the packet-switching network."

Such issues can be complex because: Faulty components might reside in several places - for example, within the Cisco domain or in a third-party (telco) domain. Multiple components impact the status of the ISDN Primary Rate Interface (PRI) or T1 CAS circuit. The problem could be mismatched configuration across the telco interface, which leads to clock slips, line/path violations, a damaged cable, a bad card, or telco issues. The Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) does not directly deal with third party organizations. How can there be efficient and effective progress on the issue?

[ 1] A dispute arises when one member country adopts a trade policy measure or takes some action that one or more fellow members considers to a breach of WTO agreements or to be a failure to live up to obligations. By joining the WTO, member countries have agreed that if they believe fellow members are in violation of trade rules, they will use the multilateral system of settling disputes instead of taking action unilaterally — this entails abiding by agreed procedures (Dispute Settlement Understanding) and respecting judgments, primarily of the Dispute Settlement Body (DSB), the WTO organ responsible for adjudication of disputes. [ 2] A former WTO Director-General characterized the WTO dispute settlement system as \"\"the most active international adjudicative mechanism in the world today.\"\" [ 3] Chad P. Bown of the Peterson Institute for International Economics and Petros Mavroidis of Columbia Law School remarked on the 20th year anniversary of the dispute settlement system that the system is \"\"going strong\"\" and that \"\"there is no sign of weakening\"\".

A WAN is a data communications network that covers a relatively broad geographic area and that often uses transmission facilities provided by common carriers, such as telephone companies. WAN technologies generally function at the lower three layers of the OSI reference model: the physical layer, the data link layer, and the network layer. Figure: WAN Technologies Operate at the Lowest Levels of the OSI Model illustrates the relationship between the common WAN technologies and the OSI model. Figure: WAN Technologies Operate at the Lowest Levels of the OSI Model Point-to-Point Links A point-to-point link provides a single, pre-established WAN communications path from the customer premises through a carrier network, such as a telephone company, to a remote network. Point-to-point lines are usually leased from a carrier and thus are often called leased lines. For a point-to-point line, the carrier allocates pairs of wire and facility hardware to your line only. These circuits are generally priced based on bandwidth required and distance between the two connected points."

This form of advertising is directed toward patients, rather than healthcare professionals. The rhetorical objective of direct-to-consumer advertising is to directly influence the patient-physician dialogue in order to increase sales of a particular pharmaceutical drug. [ 1]The Food and Drug Administration is responsible for regulating DTC advertising in the United States. The FDA's latest version of guidelines, though still in draft form, for pharmaceutical drug advertising was updated in 2009. [ 2] Forms of DTC advertising include TV, print, radio and other mass and social media.

SAE standard J/1979 defines many PIDs, but manufacturers also define many more PIDs specific to their vehicles. All light duty vehicles (i.e. less than 8,500 pounds) sold in North America since 1996, as well as medium duty vehicles (i.e. 8,500-14,000 pounds) beginning in 2005, and heavy duty vehicles (i.e. greater than 14,000 pounds) beginning in 2010, [1] are required to support OBD-II diagnostics, using a standardized data link connector, and a subset of the SAE J/1979 defined PIDs (or SAE J/1939 as applicable for medium/heavy duty vehicles), primarily for state mandated emissions inspections. Typically, an automotive technician will use PIDs with a scan tool connected to the vehicle's OBD-II connector. The technician enters the PIDThe scan tool sends it to the vehicle's controller–area network (CAN)-bus, VPW, PWM, ISO, KWP.

It was named after its securities settlement system, CREST, and has been owned and operated by Euroclear since 2002. [ 1] The name CREST is not an acronym. There have been attempts to devise backronym for what CREST could mean such as \"\"Certificateless Registry for Electronic Share Transfer\"\", and then there are some pranksters in the UK Money Markets who use phrases such as \"\"Could Reasonably Expect Settlement Today\"\" and \"\"Can't Remember Ever Sanctioning Taurus\"\". CREST allows shareholders and bondholders to hold assets in a dematerialised, i.e. electronic form, rather than holding physical share certificates. CREST also serves a number of other important functions, such as assisting in the payments of dividends to shareholders. It is also an \"\"electronic trade confirmation system\"\" (\"\"ETC\"\") (using Trax). When parties to a transaction make a deal, they both electronically confirm their sides of the transaction via electronic transfer. Both parties are required to submit confirmation details to Crest.

Piezo High Pressure Common Rail Basic Information The high pressure pump builds rail pressure and delivers it to the fuel rail manifold where it flows through the injector lines to the injectors. The fuel pressure regulator in the high pressure pump and the pressure regulating valve in the rail control rail pressure. The injectors have a piezo stack instead of an electro-magnetic solenoid. When energized, the piezo crystals expand, lifting the control valve off of its seat via a hydraulic coupler (connecting plunger below) to begin injection. If the valve seat in the injector is leaking or the pressure regulating valve leaks then it will not build enough rail pressure to start the engine. CAUTIONThe fuel system contains high pressure fuel up to 29,000 PSI. Do not use you fingers to find fuel leaks!"

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

When the light is on, the truck won't engage into 4-wheel drive. When I turn my truck off and start it again, the 4-wheel drive will work until the next time the light comes on. If I turn off the truck with the 4-wheel drive engaged, when I turn the truck back on, it is still engaged. I have replaced the switch on the dash. GM has replaced the electronic control module and updated a program. It seems to happen most often when I hit bumps, especially wash boarded gravel roads. It seems like it could be a bad connection or ground. Answer: The VIN tells me you're driving a half-ton with the 5.3-liter V-8. When the Service 4WD indicator lights up it's telling us there's a problem related to the Transfer Case Shift Control Module, the appropriate Diagnostic Trouble Code has been stored in the control module's memory, and it's gonna shutdown 4x4 operation to prevent additional damage."

A P0031 DTC (diagnostic trouble code) refers to the O2 sensor (oxygen sensor) located on Bank 1 in front of the catalytic converter. There is also an oxygen sensor behind the converter which is Sensor #2. This O2 sensor #1 may also be refered to as an air/fuel ratio sensor since on some vehicles it is. It detects the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas compared to the outside air and then vehicle's computer adjusts the air/fuel ratio going into the engine. The sensor is less effective when the exhaust gas temperature is low, so it includes a heater which is activated to help get better readings from the A/F O2 sensor. Essentially this P0031 code means that the resistance of the heater circuit is lower than normal. In most cases, that resistance level must fall below 0.8 A to trigger the DTC code."

You need to learn about your debt-to-income ratio (DTI), if you want to monitor your overall financial situation. DTI is a formula that compares certain debts you have to your gross income. To calculate your debt-to-income ratio, take your monthly debt payments (for you house, credit cards, and vehicle, student loan, and alimony or child-support) and divide it by your monthly gross income. If you have a debt that you will pay off in 6 months by making your normal payment, it may not be counted in your DTI . Items such as monthly food expenditures, utility bills, and entertainment expenses are not included in your debt-to-income ratio. Though you clearly have to budget money to pay for these expenses, they are not used by lenders when calculating your DTI. Debt-to-Income Calculation Example If you make $4,000/month,before taxes, this is your gross monthly income."

It is a success story that has hit the headlines severally and sees no sign of abating. For lenders, VA mortgages are the safest. No questions asked. Which appears to be an anomaly but really isn’t. VA loans require no down payment, which seems to fly in the face of conventional wisdom that lower equity equal higher default rate. Also, credit requirements are less strict than on alternative mortgage types. But these features aren’t responsible for the stability and safety of the VA program. An amalgam of astute factors is the reason why. One of the best-known factors, that’s fairly unique to the VA program by the way, is its home retention service."

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUNDOn June 29, 2007, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS), and the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) (collectively, the Agencies) publicly released the Statement on Subprime Mortgage Lending (Subprime Statement). The Agencies developed the Subprime Statement to address emerging risks associated with certain subprime mortgage products and lending practices. In particular, the Agencies are concerned about the growing use of adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) products 1 that provide low initial payments based on a fixed introductory rate that expires after a short period, and then adjusts to a variable rate plus a margin for the remaining term of the loan. These products could result in payment shock to the borrower. The Agencies are concerned that these products, typically offered to subprime borrowers, present heightened risks to lenders and borrowers. Often, these products have additional characteristics that increase risk. These include qualifying borrowers based on limited or no documentation of income or imposing substantial prepayment penalties or prepayment penalty periods that extend beyond the initial fixed interest rate period. In addition, borrowers may not be adequately informed of product features and risks, including their responsibility to pay taxes and insurance, which might be separate from their mortgage payments. These products originally were extended to customers primarily as a temporary credit accommodation in anticipation of early sale of the property or in expectation of future earnings growth."

"text": "Minimum Credit Score Needed to Buy a House Here is another interesting reader question, “what is the minimum credit score needed to buy a house?”Mortgage lenders look at more than just your credit score. They will also consider your work history, debt-to-income, and loan-to-value ratio, or the size of the down payment. All these factors combine to determine whether you qualify to buy that dream home. Therefore, you may need a higher credit score if your income is a little too low to support your monthly payments, or if you do not have the resources to make a large enough down payment. Searching for answers based on the state where you live is less fruitful for conventional loans. Jumbo mortgages are a different story. We explore this topic first. Credit Score Required for Mortgage Loan in Your State Many readers also ask what credit score is required for a mortgage loan approval based upon the state where they live. Any real estate agent will tell you that the three most important factors in pricing a house are location, location, and location. However, when it comes to qualifying, you will quickly see that location is not an important factor."

"text": "FHA Loans: Everything You Need to Know What Is an FHA Loan?“ FHA loans ” are mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), which can be issued by any FHA-approved lender in the United States. Congress established the FHA in 1934 to help lower income borrowers obtain a mortgage who otherwise would have trouble qualifying. In 1965, the FHA became part of the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Office of Housing. Before the FHA was created, it was common for homeowners to put down a staggering 50% of the value of the property as a down payment on short-term balloon mortgages, which clearly wasn’t practical going forward. Unlike conventional home loans, FHA loans are government-backed, which protects lenders against defaults, making it possible to for them to offer prospective borrowers more competitive interest rates on traditionally more risky loans. [ See today's mortgage rates from dozens of lenders, updated daily . ] An FHA home loan works like any other mortgage in that you borrow a certain amount of money from a lender and pay it back, typically over 30 years via fixed mortgages. The main distinction is that FHA loans charge both upfront and monthly mortgage insurance premiums, often for the life of the loan. However, they also come with low down payment and credit score requirements, making them one of the easier home loans to qualify for."

It can be used to answer the question \"\" How Much Home Can I Afford? \"\" Debt-to-Income does not indicate the willingness of a person to make their monthly mortgage payment.

"text": "\"Minimum FHA credit score requirement is 500, but can you actually get a loan? Minimum FHA credit score for a home loan The minimum FHA credit score for a home loan dropped to 500 a couple of years ago. Here's how that stacks up against other programs: VA home loans require no minimum credit score USDA loans have a FICO floor of 640Conforming loans (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) require a minimum credit score of 620Some programs grant exceptions when there are mitigating circumstances, such as identity theft. Note that FHA won't approve a mortgage with a 500 FICO unless you can put at least 10 percent down. USDA programs have income-eligibility requirements, and you must buy in a designated rural area. And VA loans only go to VA-eligible buyers, those who are servicemembers or veterans. Most Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac programs require larger down payments and / or lower debt-to-income ratios if your credit score is on the low end of the allowable range. FHA \"\"official\"\" credit score requirements It's getting easier for borrowers to get an FHA-backed home loan. Major lenders will now approve 96.5 percent FHA mortgage applications for borrowers with FICO scores of 580. The program's 3.5 percent down payment minimum is among the most lenient for today's home buyers."

The Best Way to Refinance Your Home Mortgage How to Calculate Debt to Income Ratio for a Mortgage How to Refinance Up to 100 Percent of Home Value People with a high debt-to-income ratio are more likely to run into trouble making their monthly payments and might have difficulty getting approved for a loan. Fortunately, it's possible to tame your ratio by paying down and restructuring your debts, and some refinance programs are more forgiving than others for applicants carrying higher debt loads. Establish Front-End and Back-End DTILenders look at two types of debt-to-income ratios when you apply for a loan. The front-end ratio measures what percentage of your monthly income would go toward the monthly mortgage payment, mortgage insurance, property taxes and other housing expenses such as homeowners association fees. The back-end ratio weighs your monthly income against all your monthly debt obligations. This includes car loans, student loans and credit cards as well as your housing costs. Suppose you earn a monthly income of $8,000. Your housing expenses are $2,000 per month, and your other debts come to $1,000. In this example, your front-end DTI is 25 percent and your back-end DTI is 37.5 percent, commonly expressed as 25/37.5."

"text": "FHA No Longer Excluding Deferred Student Loan Payments From DTI Ratios By Brad Yzermans on April 4, 2015 in FHA Mortgages FHA’s new 4000.1 handbook states lenders can no longer exclude deferred student loan debt payments from a borrowers DTI ratio. This change in how FHA treats deferred obligations takes effect September 14, 2015, and may significantly reduce how much a buyer qualifies for when using FHA financing. Essentially, deferred loans are no longer treated differently than other monthly obligations. Even if a borrower has student loans deferred or in forbearance for up to 12-48 months, FHA is still forcing lenders to count the projected repayment amount into the borrowers DTI ratio. There are no exceptions to this. Read this ==> Everything you need to know about student loan debt and qualifying to buy a home FHA’s decision to now include deferred student loan debt into a buyers DTI ratio is no joke. Even more Millennial homebuyers with deferred student loan debt will be shut out from be homeowners. FHA’s guideline change isn’t just for deferred student loan debt, but for ALL deferred obligations. How Much Will This Change Impact You? It’s going to significantly reduce how much a buyer can qualify for….no doubt about that."

"text": "Jumbo Loans Now Available with Just 5% Down It sounds like the credit box is beginning to open up a bit more, maybe too much if the latest product announcements are any indication. This week, Parkside Lending launched a new jumbo mortgage that only requires a five percent down payment. Yes, jumbos up to 95% LTV. Generally, jumbo loans require much larger down payments (20-30% or more) than conforming loan amounts because the loan amounts are larger and may put more risk on the lender. They are also often kept on the lender’s books instead of being sold off immediately via the originate-to-distribute model. That’s what makes this product launch noteworthy. It also kind of reminds of me the loose lending days before the crisis, though things are quite a bit different at the moment. [ See today's mortgage rates from dozens of lenders, updated daily . ] For example, despite only requiring a five percent down payment, a minimum FICO score of 740 is needed and the DTI ratio can’t exceed 35%. Additionally, borrowers need a full 24 months of reserves, or two years of mortgage payments on hand to qualify for the program."

News Staff | March 27, 2018, at 8:00 a.m. Mortgage interest rates are historically low, and the conditions are excellent for U. S. homeowners to refinance a home loan. Often, homeowners refinance to get a lower interest rate, access cash, lock in a low fixed rate or shorten their loan term. A home is the single largest asset many consumers have, so the stakes are high when refinancing. With this guide, you can learn how mortgage refinancing works and how you can choose the right lender. How Mortgage Refinancing Works A mortgage is a loan from a bank or other lender that you use to buy a piece of real estate. The property you purchase is used as collateral against the loan. A mortgage refinance trades an existing mortgage for a new one. The lender pays off the old loan, and you begin making payments on the new loan.

Whether they want to buy a house, finance a car or consolidate debts, the ratio determines whether they’ll be able to find a lender. Get Financial Help Now How to Calculate Debt-To-Income Ratio Meet John, a supermarket manager who is married with three school-age children and takes home a comfortably large paycheck. Sure he has some credit card debts and a couple of car loans, but he never misses a payment and assumes that getting a mortgage for a new home should be a piece of cake. Then comes the bad news. After visiting several banks with a fat folder of financial documents, John is told he’s above the 43% Rule and can’t borrow the money. What’s the 43% Rule? It’s a ratio of debt-to-income, and a crucial standard for deciding who qualifies for a loan and who doesn’t. In reviewing loan applications, lenders compute the ratio of a person’s debt relative to income. The standard for qualifying for a home loan is 43 percent, though it might vary a bit from lender to lender."

"text": "What is 'Debt-To-Income Ratio - DTI'The debt-to-income (DTI) ratio is a personal finance measure that compares an individual’s debt payment to his or her overall income. The debt-to-income ratio is one way lenders, including mortgage lenders, measure an individual’s ability to manage monthly payment and repay debts. DTI is calculated by dividing total recurring monthly debt by gross monthly income, and it is expressed as a percentage. BREAKING DOWN 'Debt-To-Income Ratio - DTI'A low debt-to-income (DTI) ratio demonstrates a good balance between debt and income. Conversely, a high DTI can signal that an individual has too much debt for the amount of income he or she has. According to studies of mortgage loans, borrowers who have lower DTIs are more likely to successfully manage monthly debt payments, so lenders prefer to see low numbers. In general, 43% is the highest DTI a borrower can have and still get qualified for a mortgage. A debt-to-income ratio smaller than 36%, however, is preferable, with no more than 28% of that debt going towards servicing a mortgage. While the maximum DTI will vary by lender, the lower the number, the better the chances that an individual will be able to get the loan or line of credit he or she wants. For example, John pays $1,000 each month for his mortgage, $500 for his car loan, and $500 for the rest of his debt each month."

The audio channel support integrated into the audio data content of a DTS file includes playback features for left-front, center, right-front, right-rear and left-rear speakers. In case the speaker system is not implemented with support for 5-audio channel playback, then all five tracks of a DTS file cannot be played. Optical out connections are sometimes used with surround sound speakers to resolve this issue.

The ability to access services like Netflix, Amazon Instant Video, and VUDU directly from the TV, without the need for an additional set-top box, is very appealing to people who desire the cleanest, easiest setup. But there's one glaring problem with this approach: those pesky TV speakers, which offer mediocre quality at best and downright awful quality in many instances. The average consumer--the one who doesn't own an external audio system at all--listens to everything through their speakers anyhow. But I'm curious to know how many of our readers who own home theater systems listen to smart TV apps through the TV itself, instead of running sound to that perfectly good AV receiver and 5.1 (or higher) speaker system sitting just a few feet away. I confess, I do it far more than I should. Is anyone else willing to admit the same? Granted, in my case, it's often due to the fact that, as a TV reviewer, I'm constantly swapping out review samples, and I need to test the audio quality of those internal TV speakers. But even when my reference TV is back in its position of honor, I find myself reaching for the TV remote's volume buttons rather than taking the time to properly set up the Audio Return Channel feature.

"text": "Digital Theater Sound (DTS)Definition - What does Digital Theater Sound (DTS)mean? Digital Theater Sound (DTS) is a digital audio technology developed by DTS, Inc, which focuses on digital surround sound formats for consumer and commercial applications as well as theatrical purposes. Compared to the Dolby Digital standard, DTS uses four times less compression and digitizes audio sounds at 20 bits instead of 16 bits. This makes DTS-based audio richer in sound and more detailed than Dolby Digital-based ones. Techopedia explains Digital Theater Sound (DTS)Similar to AC-3, DTS also has stereo surround channels, which are mono, two-channel stereo, three-channel stereo, two-channel stereo with mono surround, three-channel stereo with mono surround, four-channel quadraphonic and five-channel surround. Digital Theater Sound has different variants like DTS 70mm, DTS-ES, DTS Neo 6, DTS Neo X, DTS 96/24, DTS Connect, DTS-HD Master Audio, etc. In the case of DTS soundtrack, the audio is recorded at a high bit rate but is not stored directly on the film strip. Instead, it is stored in a compressed form on CD-ROM. The track also has a modified time code, which helps in synchronizing the image with the sound audio track. There are some distinct benefits of using DTS-based systems."

Here are five tips to help ensure that you've set up your Blu-ray player correctly for your system. Tip #1: Use an HDMI Cable An HDMI connection will provide the highest quality picture and sound you can get from your Blu-ray player, plus it allows you to transmit both high-definition video and high-resolution audio over one cable, for a clean, easy setup. If you are connecting the player directly to a TV, just run an HDMI cable from the player's HDMI output to one of the TV's HDMI inputs. If you're adding an A/V receiver (or perhaps a soundbar) to the mix, you'll need two HDMI cables: Run the first one from the Blu-ray player's HDMI output to the receiver's HDMI input (ideally the one that's already labeled BD/DVD), then run the second one from the receiver's HDMI output to your TV's HDMI input. Make note of exactly which HDMI input you used on the TV (they are usually numbered). After powering up all your devices, make sure that the receiver is set to the BD/DVD source and/or make sure that the TV is set to the correct input."

PCM is used to convert analog audio signals (represented by waveforms) into digital audio signals (which are represented by 1's and 0's—much like computer data) with no compression. This allows the recording of a musical performance or movie soundtrack to fit in a smaller space (compare the size of CD to a vinyl record). PCM Basics PCM analog-to-digital audio conversion can be complex, depending on what content is being converted, the quality needed or desired, and how the information is stored, transferred, or distributed. However, here are the basics. A PCM file is a digital interpretation of an analog sound wave. The goal is to replicate the properties of an analog audio signal as closely as possible. The way the analog-to-PCM conversion is done is via a process called sampling. As mentioned above, analog sound moves in waves, while PCM is a series of 1's and 0's. In order to capture analog sound using PCM, specific points on the sound wave must be sampled (frequency)."

Beard, speaking to a friend of a friend, was able to get in touch with Steven Spielberg to audition a remastering of Spielberg's film Close Encounters of the Third Kind mixed in DTS. Spielberg then selected DTS sound for his next film, Jurassic Park and with the backing of Universal Pictures and its then-parent Matsushita Electric, over 1,000 theatres in the United States adopted the DTS system.

"text": "Learn: Home Electronics What is DTS-HD and DTS-HD Master Audio? Surround Receivers Clint De Boer What is DTS-HD and DTS-HD Master Audio? When Blu-ray hit the scene and snuffed out (outspent, really) HD-DVD in the mini format war, a new audio CODEC was needed to handle the many ways in which audio would need to be delivered in the high-definition era. DTS-HD Master Audio (formerly known as DTS++) became the new defacto-standard for the premium-level of on-disc HD audio. DTS-HD Master Audio is a “lossless” audio format—using a variable bit-rate technology to deliver high quality audio, while keeping file sizes small and conserving bandwidth. It turns out the format was an impressive jump over prior iterations of DTS and was light-years ahead in how it could communicate and transmit the required 7.1 sound for Blu-ray. DTS (the company) set out to make DTS-HD Master Audio the audible equivalent of listening to the master recordings. Technically-speaking, DTS-HD Master Audio carries within its file, two data streams: the original DTS “core” stream and another stream that contains the “residual” data that is made up of what’s left from the original signal and the lossy compressed stream. The decoder is then able to use both to recreate an audio stream that is bit-for-bit identical to the original (i.e. “lossless”). The encoding process is also very quick, and can be done in a single pass—something that is very important in the area of content creation and mastering."

"text": "How To ›Home Theater PCM Audio in Home Theater What PCM audio is and why it's important Share Pin Email Print Martin Koller / Eye Em/Getty Imagesby Robert Silva Updated February 02, 2018PCM stands for P ulse C ode M odulation. PCM is used to convert analog audio signals (represented by waveforms) into digital audio signals (which are represented by 1's and 0's—much like computer data) with no compression. This allows the recording of a musical performance or movie soundtrack to fit in a smaller space (compare the size of CD to a vinyl record). PCM Basics PCM analog-to-digital audio conversion can be complex, depending on what content is being converted, the quality needed or desired, and how the information is stored, transferred, or distributed. However, here are the basics. A PCM file is a digital interpretation of an analog sound wave. The goal is to replicate the properties of an analog audio signal as closely as possible. The way the analog-to-PCM conversion is done is via a process called sampling. As mentioned above, analog sound moves in waves, while PCM is a series of 1's and 0's. In order to capture analog sound using PCM, specific points on the sound wave must be sampled (frequency)."

The Latest 3D Surround Sound Format Explained Last Updated: September 2, 2017 1:11 pm Share on Facebook Tweet on Twitter Surround sound has been around for a long time, but the latest buzzword in the industry is ‘immersive audio’ that goes beyond the traditional 7.1 speaker layout to offer a three-dimensional audio experience. Dolby was first off the blocks with its 3D audio offering when it announced Dolby Atmos back in 2012. Since then, quite a few other companies have announced their own immersive surround sound formats, notable among which is DTS: X, which was launched last year by California-based audio technology engineering company, DTS Inc. So, in case you want to know more on the subject, here’s our in-depth look at DTS: X and what it promises to do to the home theater market in the coming years: What is DTS: X? DTS: X is an object-based audio codec, which aims to create a multi-dimensional sound that “moves around you like it would in real life”. The technology has its roots in the 3D surround sound format developed by Santa Ana, California-based sound engineering company SRS Labs, which was subsequently acquired by DTS in 2012. DTS: X works with “any speaker configuration with a hemispherical layout”, thanks to the use of the Multi Dimensional Audio (MDA) platform, which is an open and royalty-free standard that allows sound engineers to isolate each individual sound object and, control their placement, movement and volume separately irrespective of the channel assignment or speaker layout. What is DTS Virtual: X? In the simplest of terms, DTS Virtual: X aims to deliver the three-dimensional surround sound of DTS: X without all the extra speakers."

Logo by Blu-ray Disc Association - Blu-ray Player by Samsungby Robert Silva Updated October 06, 2017When DVD was introduced in 1996/1997, it was a significant upgrade from VHS. As a result, DVD became the most successful video product in history. However, when HDTV was introduced, two formats were made available to consumers in 2006 that raised the bar higher: HD-DVD and Blu-ray. Blu-ray vs DVDThe key difference between DVD and Blu-ray/HD-DVD is that DVD is a standard definition format in which disc information is encoded in 480i resolution, while Blu-ray/HD-DVD disc information can be encoded up to 1080p. This means that Blu-ray/HD-DVD was capable of taking advantage of HDTV image quality. However, although Blu-ray and HD-DVD achieved the same results, the way they were implemented was slightly different, making them incompatible formats (remember VHS vs BETA). Of course, this resulted in a \"\"format war\"\" in which movie studios had to choose which format to release movies in, and consumers had to vote with their dollars to determine what players to purchase. The result - by 2008 HD-DVD was officially discontinued, leaving Blu-ray as the \"\"king of the hill\"\" as the high-definition disc alternative to DVD. If you haven't jumped into Blu-ray yet, the following are key things you need to know."

One-third is produced by the internal crystalline lens. Function The cornea functions like a camera lens, helping to focus light coming into the eye onto the retina. The cornea is also filled with nerves that alert us to irritations that could potentially harm our vision and eye health. What Is It Made of? The cornea is a remarkable piece of tissue made up of specialized cells. One thing unique to the cornea is that there are no blood vessels in the cornea to provide it nourishment. The cornea receives most of its nourishment directly from the tears on the surface and through the aqueous humor (a fluid that fills the anterior chamber of the eye) from inside the eye."

If wash is not possible then wudu will be sufficient. Wearing of ihram should be done before entering Meeqaat. One piece of ihram is tied around the waist and the other thrown over the shoulders. Head covering (for males), shoes, socks, underwear are not permitted. Beach thongs or similar footwear that do not cover the arch of the foot (above the toes) and ankles are permissible. Salaatul Ihram After wearing the ihram, perform two rakaat sunnatul ihram. In the first rakaah read: Surah Kafiroon In the second rakaah read Surah Ikhlaas. After the completion of this salah, make the niyath (intention) of umrah, and recite the talbiyah thrice (Loudly for males, and softly for females). Intention for Umrah Recite the following dua (with raised hands): \"\"Allahumma inni uridil umrahta fa-yassisra le wa taqabbalah minni\"\"Thereafter, recite the talbiyah thrice: Labbaik allahumma labbaik."

"text": "\"Indonesian phrasebook Book a Hotel In Out Check Rates Indonesian (Indonesian: Bahasa Indonesia) is the official language and lingua franca of Indonesia, and also widely spoken in East Timor. With over 230 million speakers, there are a lot of people to talk to in Indonesian. Indonesian is closely related to Bahasa Malaysia, but the main difference is the vocabulary: Indonesian has been influenced by Dutch, while Bahasa Malaysia has been influenced by English. Both have been influenced by Sanskrit, Arabic and Javanese. Grammar [ edit]The basic word order of Indonesian is similar to English:subject-verb-object with one basic difference being that the noun or subject comes before the predicate or adjective. For example, Kucing hitam = Black cat; Buku saya = My book. In general, there are no plurals, grammatical gender, or verb conjugation for person, number or tense, all of which are expressed with adverbs or tense indicators: saya makan, \"\"I eat\"\" (now), saya sudah makan, \"\"I already eat\"\" = \"\"I ate\"\". When plurals are in use, they're often simply a repetition of the singular form, connected by a dash (or, in shortened informal Indonesian, indicated with a \"\"2\"\" at the end). For example, \"\"mobil-mobil\"\" (cars) is simply the plural form of \"\"mobil\"\" (car). One can also choose to use other words, especially in informal situations, such as \"\"banyak\"\" (many) instead: \"\"banyak mobil\"\"."

"text": "48. For How Long Can a Claimant Receive Unemployment Benefits? The number of weeks during which a claimant receives UI benefits during the benefit year depends on the total benefit credit for the year. That amount is calculated by first determining which amount is less - 30 times the weekly benefit amount or 36 percent of the claimant's base period earnings. If the former, the claimant receives benefits for 30 weeks, if the latterm the total benefit credit is divided by the weekly benefit amount to determine the number of weeks of UI benefit. Therefore, the number of weeks of UI benefits an individual claimant receives may be far fewer than 30, depending on the number of weeks of earnings, the total earnings, and whether earnings fluctuated between different quarters of the base period. For an explanation about how the weekly beenfit amount is calculated, see Question 4. G. L. c. 151A ,. Federal Extended UI Benefits The federal extended UI benefits program is triggered during periods of high unemployment through Congressional enactments and also through a permanent federal-state extended benefits program. G. L. c. 151A § 30A. During a period when DUA is paying federal extended benefits, the regular UI payment period is reduced from 30 times the weekly benefit amount to 26 times the weekly benefit amount."

"text": "The Significance of Shab-e-Baraat Click here to download this article as a pdf There are many merits of Shabaan, especially the 15th of Shabaan, which is known as Shab-e-Baraat or Lailatul Baraat, meaning the Night of Absolution. Insha Allah hereunder we will discuss the auspiciousness of Shab-e-Baraat and also a few things that should be read on this night. Just to highlight the significance of Shabaan, Hazrat Anas ibn Malik (Radiallahu Ta’ala Anh) reports that once when Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) was asked about the most meritorious fasting, he replied, “Fasting in Shabaan in honour of Ramadaan.” Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) would fast for the whole month of Shabaan and has stated that Shabaan is his month. Shab-e-Baraat is a vessel for Mercy, Blessing, Benefit, Pardon and Forgiveness that descends upon the people of the earth. On this great night, Allah Ta’ala descends to the first heaven and proclaims, “Is there anyone who seeks forgiveness so that I may forgive him? Is there anyone who seeks sustenance so that I may grant him sustenance? Is there anyone who seeks freedom from his problems so that I may remove his problems?” This announcement continues until the break of dawn. Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has said, “On the night of the middle of Shabaan, Allah Ta’ala descends to the heaven of this lower world and forgives every Muslim, except a mushrik (one who associates partners with Allah Ta’ala), the bearer of malice, the breaker of family ties, the adulterer, the miser, the one who is disobedient to his parents and the one who consumes alcohol."

"text": "\"Dude From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search For other uses, see Dude (disambiguation). Dude is American English slang for an individual, typically male. [ 1] From the 1870s to the 1960s, dude primarily meant a person who dressed in an extremely fashionable manner (a dandy) or a conspicuous citified person who was visiting a rural location, a \"\" city slicker \"\". In the 1960s, dude evolved to mean any male person, a meaning that slipped into mainstream American slang in the 1970s. Current slang retains at least some use of all three of these common meanings. [ 2]History Evander Berry Wall, a New York socialite, was dubbed \"\"King of the Dudes.\"\" He is pictured (1888) in the New York American newspaper at the time of the \"\"battle of the Dudes.\"\" [ 3] [4]The word may have derived from the Scottish term for clothes, duddies. [ 5] The term \"\"dude\"\" was first used in print in 1876, in Putnam's Magazine, to mock how a woman was dressed (as a \"\"dud\"\"/dude). [ 5] The use of the word \"\"dudde\"\" for clothing in English goes as far back as 1567. ["

Heizer Reputation - 0Rank - Aluminum Traditionally, when setting labor standards and balancing an assembly line we have used the term ‘cycle time’ to specify the time available at each work station to accomplish the necessary operations (and meet production demands). However, in recent years the German term ‘takt time’ has come into voge to mean about the same thing — produciton time available to meet customer demands. Should we be replacing ‘cycle time’ with ‘takt time’ in our disucssions and literature? November 8, 2004 at 9:19 am #71696APParticipant@APReputation - 0Rank - Aluminum Cycle time & takt time are not the same. Cycle time for a process is the time it takes for that process step to be completed. Takt time is the average demand from the customer & therefore the rate at which products should be produced.

If takt time is the average demand from your customer (assuming normality so 50% of the time they want more and 50% of the time they want less) and I produce at that rate how do I compensate for the 50% of the time that I am running to slow to satisfy the customers demands?

Since I'm an IT consultant as well as a reviewer, The Dude comes in very handy when I'm trying to map out a customer's network. Of course it shows icons representing the various devices on your network, but it goes beyond that. Hovering over an icon shows you the type of services available, recent bandwidth usage, and other important info. Right-click and up pops a context menu where you can ping, open the device by a number of means (ftp, http, terminal, and others according to the type of device), as well as make notes on the device for later referral. Mikrotek provides a test network (159.148.147.209) to connect to so you can see exactly what it does and the handsome way in which it shows you devices. As you might guess from its moniker, the program's language is network-geek and with a smattering of surfer lingo. Nevertheless, The Dude, along with a network primer, could be a pretty handy way to get yourself up to speed on the subject."

First, a few words about the word \"\"dude\"\": For some, dude isn't so much a word as a state of mind. Based on inflection alone, it's entirely possible for two people to have an entire conversation with just \"\"dude\"\" — and actually come to a mutual conclusion. And that state of mind has now been bottled and flavored lemon-lime. Which brings us to... What it tastes like: Yeah, it'll get you drunk. And your parents. And your grandparents. Because while it may taste mostly like the Dew, it's miles ahead of its horrible flavored-liquor brethren. For example: There's root-beer schnapps, which tastes more like a candy root-beer barrel hidden in storage for a decade and then left out in the sun, or Firefly, the iced-tea vodka that tastes as much like a glass of sweet tea as John Goodman made a good Blues Brother.

Whats the spanish word for like i want you to be mine, or baby?1 following 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: It's slang that males use to refer to one another. It can be translated to \"\"dude\"\", but more like \"\"hommie\"\", since it's used mostly by cholos (gang members). And you could say: \"\"Quiero que seas mio (or \"\"mia\"\" if you're talking to a girl). And \"\"baby\"\" could be: \"\"Nene (or nena, if you're talking to a girl). \"\" Bebe\"\" would be the literal translation, but it is rarely used to refer to a significant other.

I'm not even sure he is a human being. At the very least, there seems to be a seven-year-old boy deep inside of a man who never truly reached adulthood. Incognito traffics in vulgarities and serial bigotry with the same ease as when blocking on the football field. What we also know, what is inescapable now, is that Incognito may have been unfairly portrayed as a bully. Yes, he's a bad dude. But it's also unfair to call him Martin's bully.

"text": "\"Cooking Temperatures On the kitchen oven is a really cool dial. I turn it to 350 and trust that the oven will heat up to and remain at 350 degrees. I put in the food, set the timer, and go do something productive. When camp cooking in the outdoors, there's a bit more hit-or-miss. On my dutch oven, there's no dial, nothing to tell me how hot the oven is. Since cooking food at a fairly consistent and known temperature is important for success, there are 3 ways I know of for estimating temperature. Depending on your skill level and how you'll be cooking, one of them should work for you. Also keep in mind that there are many environmental factors that will influence your oven temperature. Wind might blow heat away; colder air temperature, higher humidity and higher elevation reduce heat generated by coals; direct sunlight makes a black oven a bit hotter. You might consider making an aluminum foil wind shield to place around your oven, but if it is that windy, I would recommend you not have an open fire."

"text": "\"The Black Keys Song Meanings Song Lyrics Songs What's the meaning of the song \"\"Little Black Submarines\"\" by The Black Keys?3 Answers Jade Bromley Answered Nov 15, 2016Okay, so kind of weird interpretation but to me it sounds like the story of a soldier at war. He’s thinking about his girlfriend or wife at home in the first verse saying that he said he’d be back. ‘ This is wrecking my mind’ speaks to the turmoil of battle and his split focus. In the chorus ‘the voices calling me they get lost and out of time’ sounds like lost comrades which he mentions again as ‘stolen friends’. ‘ I should have seen the glow’ sounds like fire or some sort of explosion. His broken heart (longing to be home) split his attention and something happened that he could have prevented. Relating back again to lost comrades. The last verse sounds like he’s back home and his mind is deteriorating from PTSD or likely other effects of war. ‘ treasure maps fallen trees…patch me back to my mind’ sounds like he’s fighting to stay present and sane. ‘ Call me back when it’s time’ is his waiting to either be called back to service or feeling like he can’t really escape.2k Views · View Upvoters Related Questions More Answers Below What is the best song by The Black Keys?"

"text": "You know how the angles of a triangle always add up to 180 0? Why is that? After all, 180 0 is the angle that stretches from one side of a straight line to another—so it’s kind of weird that that’s the number of degrees in the angles of a triangle. What in the world does a triangle have to do with a single straight line? As it turns out, quite a lot. And triangles also have a lot to do with rectangles, pentagons, hexagons, and the whole family of multi-sided shapes known as polygons. We’ll see exactly what I mean by this over the next few weeks. But for today, we’re going to start by figuring out exactly why it is that the angles of a triangle always add up to 180 0. Or so you thought…because we're also going to see that sometimes they don't. ; Interior and Exterior Angles Before we get too far into our story about triangles and the total number of degrees in their three angles, there's one little bit of geometric vocabulary that we should talk about."

We mean any disorder that affects the proper functioning of the heart or the circulatory system (that is, arteries, veins, capillaries, and the lymphatic drainage). The disorder can be congenital or acquired.b. Cardiovascular impairment results from one or more of four consequences of heart disease: (i) Chronic heart failure or ventricular dysfunction. ( ii) Discomfort or pain due to myocardial ischemia, with or without necrosis of heart muscle. ( iii) Syncope, or near syncope, due to inadequate cerebral perfusion from any cardiac cause, such as obstruction of flow or disturbance in rhythm or conduction resulting in inadequate cardiac output. ( iv) Central cyanosis due to right-to-left shunt, reduced oxygen concentration in the arterial blood, or pulmonary vascular disease.c. Disorders of the veins or arteries (for example, obstruction, rupture, or aneurysm) may cause impairments of the lower extremities (peripheral vascular disease), the central nervous system, the eyes, the kidneys, and other organs. We will evaluate peripheral vascular disease under 4.11 or 4.12 and impairments of another body system (s) under the listings for that body system (s).2."

Although changes in stool color or texture may be normal, most changes should be evaluated. The symptoms associated with stool color changes, if any, are the symptoms of the underlying cause of the change, for example, foods, drinks, or illnesses such as: Diet (beets, diets rich in green vegetables, licorice)Bismuth (for example, Pepto-Bismol)Gallbladder disease Celiac disease Ulcerative colitis Crohn's disease Tumors Diverticular disease Cancers Hemorrhoids Changes in stool color may be due to diarrhea; bleeding in the intestine; diseases of the intestines, liver, or pancreas; and medications Green stool or poop is a common stool color change. It may be due to bile pigment in the stool because diarrhea moves food too quickly thorough the intestine so the intestinal chemicals and bacteria can't break down the bile pigment to its normal brown color, or the green color may be due to certain foods like green, leafy vegetables or green food coloring. Red or black colored stool may be a sign of bleeding in the GI tract (from the esophagus, stomach, small intestine or colon) and should not be ignored. When stool color changes, what tests need to be done depends upon what cause is suspected for the stool color change. For example, gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy may be required to evaluate red or black stools if bleeding is suspected. The treatment for stool color changes is the treatment of the underlying cause.

The following write-up on phlegm color meaning provides information on what the color of phlegm says about the health of an individual. Phlegm refers to congealed mucus that is secreted by the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract. Most of us tend to confuse the terms mucus and phlegm. While mucus is a normal protective layer around the mucous membranes of the respiratory, visual, auditory and gastrointestinal tract, and is made up of essentially glycoproteins and water, phlegm is a specialized type of mucus that is produced in the respiratory tract during an infection or disease. The term phlegm is derived from the word phlegma (Greek) which means inflammation. Along with the electrolytes and salt that are present in the mucus, the phlegm also contains bacteria, virus, dirt, blood components and the dead inflammatory cells that may be produced due to the infection. Once the phlegm traps these unwanted invaders it then removes it from the respiratory tract by cough. Coughed up phlegm is also termed as sputum. The phlegm is usually produced in the bronchial tubes, lungs, throat passages and other parts of the respiratory tract other than the nasal cavity."

A document from a century after the fact (1884's \"\"Stephen Hopkins, A Rhode Island Statesman\"\") attributed this resignation to \"\"his rapidly failing health, and at this time, alarming illness.\"\" But this text does not go into greater detail.

"text": "\"MODULE 2 - Diseases and Malfunctions MINICOURSE 4 - THE ACUTE ABDOMEN INTRODUCTIONThere are few situations in clinical medicine which demand prompt and decisive action as frequently as does acute abdominal pain. Acute conditions of the abdomen are produced by inflammatory, obstructive, or vascularmechanisms and are manifested by sudden onset of abdominal pain, gastrointestinal symptoms and varying degrees of local and systemic reaction. They require urgent treatment, often including emergency operation. Their urgency usually precludes prolonged investigation and there are few specific tests or examinations which may be relied upon to give clear-cut answers as to the exact cause of the acute condition. If surgery carried no risk and did not adversely affect the course of some diseases, it would be safe to say \"\"if in doubt, operate.\"\" Unfortunately, laparotomy itself carries risks and the course of some disorders such as acute pancreatitis and paralytic ileus is adversely influenced by anesthesia and surgery . The diagnosis of acute conditions, therefore, frequently resolves itself into arriving at a fairly immediate judgement derived from an accurate and detailed history, a careful physical examination and a few selected lab tests and x-ray studies. While gathering the evidence, changes should be evaluated in terms of pathophysiologic alterations rather than specific diagnoses, and attention must be given to the need for supportive measures while investigation is underway. An Approach to the Acute Abdomen On completion of this minicourse you will be able to: Define the acute abdomen. Describe the cause and pathophysiology of the following acute abdominal diseases:a."

It was mixed with tobacco because most of us had not tried it before. I actually had quite a bad experience with it and I will never use it again but by late afternoon of the day after that, I started experiencing a dull chest pain. I figured that the marijuana probably irritated my lungs. It’s now like 6 days later and my chest pain has not gone down. The pain is not at any specific spot – it’s like a dull pain of the whole chest, but if I breathe in deeply and press by the breastbone, it’s a bit more sensitive. I am a cigarette smoker, less than 10 in a day, but I am wondering if the marijuana could have done any permanent damage to my lungs. I don’t have a cough and the pain only gets worse if I breathe in very deeply. I am not sure if I am imagining it but when I think of my lungs, I feel like I am experiencing trouble breathing and breathing too fast. This is the first I ever used a drug of any sort like this but have tried even cigars in the past and never had this type of chest pain."

Simple overeating can cause dull abdominal pain, while a sharp pain after eating may indicate food poisoning or gastroenteritis.

A common cause of discomfort in the body, this is a painful condition that is associated with the kidneys. It can be defined as a dull, continuous or spasmodic severe pain in the flank area. The pain is usually felt on one of the sides but it may even occur on both the flanks, originating from the lower back. It can occur on one side – unilateral, or both the sides – bilateral. This pain is characteristic of the development of other underlying ailments, mostly related with the kidneys. Flank Pain Location Flanks are the fleshy parts on the sides, located just above the pelvis, underneath the last ribs. Pain in flank area might be dull or sharp, usually spreading from the back. Flank Pain ICD 9 Code The ICD 9 code of flank pain is approximately 789.07. It comes in the category of “generalized”, “other symptoms involving abdomen and pelvis” and “abdominal pain”."

"text": "\"Sprained tooth syndrome explained February 22, 2007Introduction Modern Dentistry, in all of its technology over the last 50 years, has solved many of the problems that have arisen with the increase of tooth retention. However, situations still arise that reasonable practitioners can disagree on diagnosis and treatment. Such, disagreements may lead to delayed effective treatment, unnecessary procedures, or actions that are excessive. All create a situation of frustration for the patient and the dentist resulting in ill will and unproductive activity. Consider a common example: A patient presents the following concerns; dull generalized ache, intermittent gum \"\"itchiness\"\", pain when probing localized gum pockets, soreness to chew, sensitivity to temperature, occasional headache. The pain is not severe enough to wake the patient out of his/her sleep but there is enough discomfort for the patient to make a specific appointment to discuss the problem. In addition, the patient recently had a cavity filled in the area of discomfort. A prudent course of action to diagnose the issue is to take an x-ray, temperature tests, percuss, and bite tests to isolate potential problems which may be causing the pain. It is also reasonable to check the patient's bite with articulating paper to determine potential high spots. Yet, common strategies do not seem to address or clearly identify the patient's problem."

First Name* Email*Get Tip Sheet Marketing by Most women are fully aware that their period can come with pain and cramping, but what about the cramping (mittelschmerz) that occurs during the middle of your cycle, around the time of ovulation? About 1 in 5 women will experience ovulation related cramping, mittelschmerz, about two weeks before their period is due to start. For most women, this condition is associated with a sharp pain that diminishes into a dull ache. Mittelschmerz – What It Means The word, mittelschmerz, is German in origin and literally means: Mittle = Middle or Medium Schmerz = Pain It is a very accurate description of what is going on for some women – pain in the middle of your menstrual cycle. What is Mittelschmerz and What Causes It Mittelschmerz is pain or cramping, either dull or sharp, that you feel around the time you ovulate. The exact cause of ovulation related cramping and pain isn’t fully known. Typically, people assumed that you feel the pain when ovulation actually occurs and your egg breaks out of the follicle."

"text": "Health Pain & Symptoms Q: What Might Cause a Burning Sensation Under the Left Rib? A: Quick Answer A burning sensation under the left rib is normally caused by organs that lie underneath, and might include spleen irritation, splenic fixture syndrome, costochondritis, a pinched nerve in the thoracic spine, a broken rib, pneumonia, pleuritis, pneumothorax, lung cancer, heart attack, spleen disorders like an enlarged spleen, angina pectoris, pancreatic cancer, pancreatitis, torn muscles, kidney diseases, chest or abdominal trauma, pericarditis, gastric ulcers, an aneurysm or herpes, as reported by Health Hype. The burning sensation or pain can also be attributed to psychological effects, like a neurotic heart; however, it is crucial that medical experts attempt to identify whether there are physical causes at fault first. Continue Reading Keep Learning What Are Some Causes of Discomfort on the Left Side Under the Ribs? Why Does My Left Side Hurt Below My Ribs? What Are the Causes of Xiphoid Process Pain? Full Answer Some of the causes can be rather mild, and are considered to be temporary, as they will leave eventually. For example, spleen irritation could be a result of strenuous exercise; however, the burning sensation or pain will normally dissipate after getting some rest. In other situations, the cause of spleen irritation is much more severe, and should be treated immediately. For example, costochronditis is caused by inflammation to the cartilage that connects the ribs and the breastbone, while splenic fixture syndrome is caused by gas that is trapped at the area between the colon and the spleen."

From your history the pain you have in back, neck, left arm, shoulder and even the pain is on right side that means the pain is arising from the neck. It is not related to heart as your ECG is normal. The pain you have is more likely related to strained muscle of neck and back due to improper position during sleep or while doing some work. I would suggest you to take a over the counter pain killer like Paracetamol or if you are not allergic or asthmatic then you can even take Ibuprofen along with Paracetamol."

I have extreme jaw pain that radiates through the whole right side of my face, especially in my back teeth (upper and lower) and extends behind my ear, to the back of my head. Thinking it was something to do with my teeth, I saw my dentist, who took Xrays and did a series of tests, finding nothing. He insists that it's my sinuses (since it's allergy season), but I've had many sinus infections, and the pain is dull and in a different place. The pain was so bad yesterday, that I had to go to the ER and they gave me Vicodin (yuk!). Please, if anybody has had similar or has any ideas. The pain comes and goes and lasts between 15 minutes to 3-4 hours.

"text": "\"» Home » Conditions Disabilities »Causes of Left Arm Pain and Tingling By Mack Le Mouse | Conditions Disabilities | Rating: Left arm pain and tingling can be alarming to experience as many would jump to the conclusion that it was indicative of a heart attack, however the chances of this are fairly slim. While it is possible, heart attacks will usually come with a variety of other symptoms, namely a dull, squeezing pain in the centre of the chest, pain travelling around the whole area, sweating, breathlessness and excessive sweating. These too however can be caused by other factors. If you’re getting the pain regularly or have had it recently, i.e. if the symptoms are more chronic than acute (which is very likely the case if you’re reading this and not writhing on the floor…) then chances are it’s not a heart attack or it would have been found by now. This is unless you’re experiencing small heart attacks, coronary disease or general heart pain, so for this reason the first port of call is still always to consult a doctor who can diagnose the causes of left arm pain tingling more accurately than we can. The doctor will most likely give you a physical exam and EKG test. Alternatively, if you’re unhappy with your diagnoses you may want to seek the counsel of a more specialised cardiologist. If they rule out cardiac problems then there are several other possible causes of pain and tingling in the left arm. Firstly you may have bad circulation. If your arm is feeling cold and numb then it’s possible that not enough blood is reaching the area."

Cymbalta (duloxetine) is a selective serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor antidepressant (SSNRI). Duloxetine affects chemicals in the brain that may be unbalanced in people with depression. Cymbalta is used to treat major depressive disorder in adults. It is also used to treat general anxiety disorder in adults and children who are at least 7 years old. Cymbalta is also used in adults to treat fibromyalgia (a chronic pain disorder), or chronic muscle or joint pain (such as low back pain and osteoarthritis pain). Cymbalta is also used to treat pain caused by nerve damage in adults with diabetes (diabetic neuropathy). Slideshow Cymbalta - Cause For Concern? Important information Do not take Cymbalta within 5 days before or 14 days after you have used a MAO inhibitor, such as isocarboxazid, linezolid, methylene blue injection, phenelzine, rasagiline, selegiline, or tranylcypromine. Some young people have thoughts about suicide when first taking an antidepressant."

"text": "featured Published in Oncology Expert Opinion / Interview · May 23, 2013Trends in the Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy Written by Charles L Loprinzi MDSave Recommend Share Practice Update: Dr. Loprinzi, please speak about the current treatment regimens for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Dr. Loprinzi: First, I’ll say a couple of words about something that is obvious to many—chemotherapy-induced neuropathy is a big, big problem; it is one of the more prominent toxicities we have with a number of commonly used chemotherapy agents, such as the platinum agents and taxanes. Although chemotherapy-induced neuropathy will often get better for many patients after stopping chemotherapy, it won’t for others and, for some, it can become a chronic problem that lasts for years. Mostly, we’re talking about peripheral neuropathy—stocking-and-glove numbness, tingling, with or without pain; occasionally patients can also develop some motor weakness. We don’t have great ways of preventing the problem. Calcium and magnesium for FOLFOX neuropathy has been most actively used in clinical practice over the past decade; stay tuned for ASCO 2013, because a large trial studying this issue will be presented there, which may set the standard for whether or not this approach should continue to be used in practice. In terms of treatment of patients with established neuropathy, the most common drugs used in clinical practice over the last decades have been the gabapentinoids—gabapentin and pregabalin. Nonetheless, only one reasonably sized, placebo-controlled, randomized controlled trial has evaluated either of these drugs—that being gabapentin—and results were convincingly negative. 1 However, gabapentinoids are still commonly used in clinical practice. It’s possible that the negative results of the gabapentin trial were just by chance and that gabapentin really does work (since it works for other neuropathy syndromes), or it could be that gabapentin helps some patients and hurts others— resulting, on average, with the trial showing no benefit."

Specifically, in 78 of these cases, there was a reported loss of antidepressant effect following a switch from the branded to generic product. In addition to the loss of effect, a number of cases also reported the new onset or worsening of side effects. The reported side effects were consistent with the adverse effects in labeling for bupropion products. More than half of the patients who switched back to Wellbutrin XL 300 mg reported improvement of depression and/or abatement of side effects. Given the temporal relationship between the switch to the generic product and the recurrence of depression and/or onset of side effects, these patients and physicians attributed these effects to poor performance of the generic product. These reported cases occurred at a time when sales data suggest that hundreds of thousands of patients using Wellbutrin XL were switched to the newly available Teva bupropion XL. The question is whether the reported lack of efficacy and/or new onset side effects in these patients who switched suggest a problem with the generic product, i.e., lack of bioequivalence to the branded product, or have some other explanation. In order to evaluate this series of post-marketing reports, we have re-examined both the data on the bioequivalence of the two products (Wellbutrin XL and Teva's bupropion XL) and what is known about the natural history of treated depression. What is the regulatory history of Wellbutrin and generic bupropion?"

It is classified as an SNRI antidepressant which means it inhibits the reuptake of serotonin as well as norepinephrine. This medication was also devised to target more of the physical symptoms associated with depression and was approved by the FDA to treat nerve pain in diabetics. A few years later it was approved to treat anxiety disorders, fibromyalgia, musculoskeletal pain (in arthritis and lower back pain). This means that many people have turned to this drug for relief in their specific condition. This drug has become highly popularized due to the fact that it was approved to treat so many different conditions. It has also been promoted like crazy on TV and throughout various types of social media. The promotions lead doctors as well as patients to believe that it is essentially a breakthrough drug in the world of depression and pain.

"text": "Depression and Antidepressants: Options, Advantages, and Precautions Medically reviewed on Nov 3, 2013 by L. Anderson, Pharm D. What is Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)? Major depression is more than just feeling sad, guilty or blue from time-to-time. Depression, also called major depressive disorder (MDD), affects daily feelings, actions, thoughts and wellness. Depression can make it difficult to engage in activities such as family life, work, and social events, and may be associated with abnormal biochemical changes in the brain that lead to depressed feelings and sadness. Medical treatment of some type is required as depression will not go away on its own; however, most forms of depression respond well to treatment such as prescription antidepressants and psychotherapy (talk therapy). Depression is not a trivial illness. Depression not only negatively impacts family, work and social life, depression can adversely affect common physical ailments, such as arthritis, heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Depression is a serious disorder that can result in a lowered quality of life, isolation, and even suicide. Depression is not a sign of weakness or the fault of the person who has the diagnosis. However, it is important that anyone who suspects they have depression seek immediate help from trusted family members and healthcare providers."

Major depression is characterized by long periods of a low or sad mood. Major depressive disorder consists only of low moods and does not vacillate between high and low mood states like bipolar disorder. For this reason, major depression is sometimes called unipolar depression. Of Americans, 20% of women and 12% of men will experience major depression at some point in their lives; however, only 3.4% of people are currently experiencing major depression at any given time.

Class identifiers Synonyms Selective Serotonin–noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor; SNa RIUse Depression; Anxiety; Pain; Obesity; Menopausal symptoms Biological target Serotonin transporter; Norepinephrine transporter External links Me SH D000068760In Wikidata Serotonin–norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors ( SNRIs) are a class of antidepressant drugs which are used in the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). They are sometimes also used to treat anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), chronic neuropathic pain, and fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), and for the relief of menopausal symptoms. SNRIs are monoamine reuptake inhibitors; specifically, they are inhibitors of the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine. These neurotransmitters are known to play an important role in mood. SNRIs can be contrasted with the more widely used selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), which act upon serotonin only. The human serotonin transporter (SERT) and norepinephrine transporter (NET) are membrane transport proteins that are responsible for the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine. Dual inhibition of serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake can possibly offer advantages over other antidepressant drugs by treating a wider range of symptoms. [ 1]SNRIs, along with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (NRIs), are second-generation antidepressants. Over the past two decades, second-generation antidepressants have gradually replaced first-generation antidepressants, such as tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) and monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) as the drugs of choice for the treatment of MDD."

Serotonin is a naturally-occurring neurotransmitter that is important in mood regulation, gastrointestinal function, pain perception, and in some other physical functions. Norepinephrine, or noradrenaline, is both a hormone and a neurotransmitter. It acts mainly in an area of the brainstem known as the locus coeruleus. Norepinephrine plays a role in the \"\"fight-or-flight\"\" response, which is how the body responds biologically to stress."

It has been heavily marketed and is one of the most commercially successful medications in the world. The Bottom Line: What You Really Need to Know Duloxetine (Trade Names: Cymbalta) is used to treat depression, anxiety and Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy. It is sometimes used to treat stress incontinence or fibromyalgia. The usual dose is 60 mg/day. Duloxetine interacts with many medications. Make sure your doctor and pharmacist know about all of the medications you take, including over-the-counter medications, herbal remedies, homeopathic remedies, vitamins, supplements and medications you only take occasionally. It will probably be a week or two before you notice any difference in the way you feel. Don't stop taking duloxetine suddenly; the dose must be tapered gradually or you may experience withdrawal symptoms. Most people have a few mild side effects, like dry mouth, nausea or headache, when they start taking duloxetine."

"text": "3.35 330 ratings Duloxetine (Cymbalta) Side Effects & Withdrawal The anti-depressant Cymbalta (duloxetine) can cause a host of side effects, but stopping the drug could also provoke unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. Terry Graedon October 15, 2012 Default 1803 Comments We have received so many complaints about duloxetine side effects that we have lost count. Far more disturbing are the number of people who tell us how hard it is to discontinue this drug. Decades ago doctors might have told patients taking a drug like Cymbalta that if they experienced anxiety, irritability or strange sensations after stopping the drug, it was probably their underlying psychological problem returning. Now we know it is withdrawal from the medicine. The History of Cymbalta: Cymbalta was originally approved by the FDA in 2004 for the treatment of major depression. It is officially an SNRI-type antidepressant. In doctorspeak that means it is a serotonin-norepinehprine reuptake inhibitor and is somewhat similar to other antidepressants such as Effexor (venlafaxine) and Pristiq (desvenlafaxine). The FDA also approved Cymbalta to treat nerve pain associated with diabetes in 2004. In 2007 the drug got a green light for anxiety and in 2008 the FDA agreed that it could ease the discomfort associated with fibromyalgia."

D. A. M. Medications Selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), or the serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) venlafaxine (Effexor), are the primary first-line treatment for anxiety disorders. For patients who are not helped by these drugs or who need help rapidly, benzodiazepines may be prescribed, either alone or in combination with an antidepressant. Other types of antidepressants, including tricyclic antidepressants, may also be used to treat patients with severe or chronic forms of anxiety disorders. Drug therapies for anxiety disorders work best in combination with cognitive behavioral therapy or some other forms of psychotherapy. Antidepressants Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs). SSRIs include fluoxetine (Prozac), sertraline (Zoloft), paroxetine (Paxil), fluvoxamine (Luvox), citalopram (Celexa), and escitalopram (Lexapro). SSRIs can cause agitation, nausea, and diarrhea. Sexual function side effects include low sex drive, inability to have an orgasm, and impotence. Over time, many SSRI-treated patients gain weight, although the degree of weight gain varies depending on the drug. Elderly people taking these drugs should take the lowest effective dose possible, and those with heart problems should be monitored closely."

If it shows this when first booting, it suggests that the system wasn't shut down properly or you've got a dud driver. Boot the machine and leave it for ten minutes. If it still won't load Windows, boot again and press F8 as Windows loads - that should give you a black & white menu.

For a wider overview of Redis persistence and the durability guarantees it provides you may want to also read Redis persistence demystified. Redis Persistence Redis provides a different range of persistence options: The RDB persistence performs point-in-time snapshots of your dataset at specified intervals.the AOF persistence logs every write operation received by the server, that will be played again at server startup, reconstructing the original dataset. Commands are logged using the same format as the Redis protocol itself, in an append-only fashion. Redis is able to rewrite the log on background when it gets too big. If you wish, you can disable persistence at all, if you want your data to just exist as long as the server is running. It is possible to combine both AOF and RDB in the same instance. Notice that, in this case, when Redis restarts the AOF file will be used to reconstruct the original dataset since it is guaranteed to be the most complete. The most important thing to understand is the different trade-offs between the RDB and AOF persistence. Let's start with RDB: RDB advantages RDB is a very compact single-file point-in-time representation of your Redis data."

This chapter contains the following sections: Introduction to the Oracle Database Instance Overview of Instance Startup and Shutdown Overview of Checkpoints Overview of Instance Recovery Overview of Parameter Files Overview of Diagnostic Files Introduction to the Oracle Database Instance A database instance is a set of memory structures that manage database files. A database is a set of physical files on disk created by the CREATE DATABASE statement. The instance manages its associated data and serves the users of the database. Every running Oracle database is associated with at least one Oracle database instance. Because an instance exists in memory and a database exists on disk, an instance can exist without a database and a database can exist without an instance. Database Instance Structure When an instance is started, Oracle Database allocates a memory area called the system global area (SGA) and starts one or more background processes. The SGA serves various purposes, including the following: Maintaining internal data structures that are accessed by many processes and threads concurrently Caching data blocks read from disk Buffering redo data before writing it to the online redo log files Storing SQL execution plans The SGA is shared by the Oracle processes, which include server processes and background processes, running on a single computer. The way in which Oracle processes are associated with the SGA varies according to operating system. A database instance includes background processes."

Also what are system error memory dump files? Reply I have the same question (491)John_Barnett replied on February 6, 2011A: Hi Cookie5354,Basically when an error occurs, say a blue screen of death (BSOD) Windows gathers all available information stored in memory at the time of the incident and 'dumps' it into a file. The file can then be used by a support engineer to determine what could have possibly caused the error in the first place. Sometimes, when an error occurs Windows will ask if it can sned furhter information to Microsoft. If you press the Yes button on the request message that appears, then Windows will upload the dump files to Microsoft's server. Dump files are useful 'but' they do have a nasty habit of taking up a lot of disk space, therefore it is beneficial to remove the files to get back the space they take up. Personally I use a thrid party freeware application called CCleaner ( www.piriform.com ) If you use this and look down the left hand side of the CCleaner window you will see a list of options that it removes. ' Remove Windows Error reports' isn't ticked by default, but I do tick it every few weeks or so, so that it clears out all the old error resports that are no longer needed. So, in answer to your question, Yes they can be deleted."

All floppies work on the same principle: a magnetic disc with a hole in the middle is inside a case, and a disk drive reads the magnetic data off the disc. Some aspects changed - where 8\"\" and 5 1/4\"\" discs had no built-in protection for the magnetic face of the disc except a paper cover, the 3 1/2\"\" versions had a small spring-loaded door that was opened by the disk drive."

"text": "\"SQL Server I/O performance is crucial to overall performance. Access to data on disk is much slower than from memory, so getting the most out of local disk and SAN is essential. There is a lot of advice on the web and in books about SQL Server I/O performance, but I haven't found a single source listing everything to consider. This is my attempt to bring all the information together in one place. So here is a list of everything I can think of that can impact I/O performance. I have ordered it starting at the physical disks and moving up the wire to the server and finally the code and database schema. Failed Disk When a drive fails in a disk array it will need to be replaced. The impact on performance before replacement depends on the storage array and RAID configuration used. RAID 5 and RAID 6 use distributed parity, and this parity is used to calculate the reads when a disk fails. Read performance loses the advantage of reading from multiple disks."

[ 1] The term rootkit is a concatenation of \"\" root \"\" (the traditional name of the privileged account on Unix-like operating systems) and the word \"\"kit\"\" (which refers to the software components that implement the tool). The term \"\"rootkit\"\" has negative connotations through its association with malware. [ 1]Rootkit installation can be automated, or an attacker can install it after having obtained root or Administrator access. Obtaining this access is a result of direct attack on a system, i.e. exploiting a known vulnerability (such as privilege escalation) or a password (obtained by cracking or social engineering tactics like \"\" phishing \"\"). Once installed, it becomes possible to hide the intrusion as well as to maintain privileged access. The key is the root or administrator access. Full control over a system means that existing software can be modified, including software that might otherwise be used to detect or circumvent it. Rootkit detection is difficult because a rootkit may be able to subvert the software that is intended to find it. Detection methods include using an alternative and trusted operating system, behavioral-based methods, signature scanning, difference scanning, and memory dump analysis."

"text": "Sparse Files: ESE can now give space back to the file system★ ★ ★ ★ ★★ ★ ★ ★★ ★ ★★ ★★Martin Chisholm September 10, 2014 3Share 0 0A long-standing limitation of ESE is that database files never shrink, even after deleting substantial amounts of the data. While the space is freed and is re-usable within the database, the on-disk size does not change. The main limitation is that the first page of each table can never be moved, so even if the file is shrunk from the end, a single unmovable page can prevent shrinking the file. This is similar to an unmovable file preventing the shrinking of a disk partition in Volume Manager. In Windows 8.1, ESE started using Sparse Files to release space back to the file system, even in the middle of database files. What is a Sparse File? A sparse file has ‘holes’. The File System has a special FSCTL called FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA. Normally it is used to write a bunch of zeroes to part of a file, but if the file is marked as sparse, and this space gets released to the file system. But what does the File System do with sparse regions?"

Commonly, it is very easy to delete volumes: go to Disk Management utility of Windows, then right click the volume we want to delete, and choose “ Delete Volume ” feature from the popup menu. Warning: deleting a volume will cause all data saved in this volume lost, so please backup needed ones in advance. However, when deleting volume C in Disk Management users may encounter the situation where “ Delete Volume ” feature is grayed out, like these: Actually, drive C is not the only volume that cannot be deleted in Disk Management, and boot volume, the volume saving page file, crash dump files, or hibernation files, the protected EFI system partition, recovery partitions, OEM partition, and the partition on removable device cannot be deleted in Windows Disk Management, too. Next, let’s see reasons. Why Some Volumes Cannot Be Deleted in Disk Management Why Volume C Cannot Be Deleted Generally, the volume saving Windows system files is always allocated with letter C by default when we are installing the first operating system. If Windows OS saved in volume C is running, we will be not allowed to delete the volume, because deleting it will result in a lot of errors and disorder. Actually, we had better say the volume storing Windows OS which is loaded cannot be deleted rather than volume C. For example, if we are dual booting Windows 7 and Windows 8, with Win7 saved in drive C and Win8 in drive D, we are able to delete volume C but cannot delete D when Windows 8 is running. Why EFI System Volume Cannot be Deleted Currently, after we successfully install Windows OS or Mac OS X on a GPT disk of PC, an EFI system partition (ESP for short) may be created, and it isn’t shown in Windows Explorer or Macintosh Explorer. To see it, we have to enter Disk Management or Disk Utility."

Dynamic Memory is a new Hyper-V feature that helps you use physical memory more efficiently. With Dynamic Memory, Hyper-V treats memory as a shared resource that can be reallocated automatically among running virtual machines. Dynamic Memory adjusts the amount of memory available to a virtual machine, based on changes in memory demand and values that you specify. Dynamic Memory is available for Hyper-V in Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (SP1). You can make the Dynamic Memory feature available by applying the service pack to the Hyper-V role in Windows Server 2008 R2 or to Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008 R2. For more information about installing the service pack, see Deployment Guide for Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1 and Windows 7 with SP1 ( http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/? Link Id=192441 )."

Does it really posses age-old secrets that would, if revealed, fundamentally change our view of Christianity and even our basic concept of its founder? And does the Priory have any real influence in the world today, as it claims? -- Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince Given what we know of Plantard's pre-1956 career – and his involvement in the dramatic events of 1958 – if we were asked to assess the raison d'etre of the Priory of Sion in, say, 1960, we would have to conclude it was a front for those who had plotted de Gaulle's return to power. -- Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince In the Soho district of London, Cocteau's murals for the Church of Notre-Dame de France include certain curious bits of iconography, such as a black sun emitting black rays, that are sometimes associated with the Prieuré de Sion, a secret religious society in which Jean Cocteau was purported to have been Grand Master. -- Arthur King Peters Dan Brown in his best-selling novel The Da Vinci Code has focused attention on the Priory of Sion. According to Dan Brown, the Priory of Sion is a secret society, the inner sanctum of the Knights Templar. He goes on to assert that this is fact. The existence of the Priory of Sion, Prieuré de Sion, as an ancient order is based on documents found in a French library."

[ 5]In 1858, the former American House Hotel (later torn down and replaced by Herrick Memorial Library) was the site of the Oberlin-Wellington Rescue. A group of men, both white and black and many from Oberlin, swarmed the hotel to rescue runaway slave John Price. He was being held by a US Marshal and his men, who intended to return him to his master in Kentucky. The abolitionists transported Price out of town en route to the Underground Railroad and helped convey him to Canada. Thirty-seven men were indicted, but only two, Simeon M. Bushnell and Charles Henry Langston, were tried in federal court for interfering with the marshal in carrying out the Fugitive Slave Law. After Langston's eloquent speech about slavery and discrimination, the judge gave them light sentences."

They view individuals with inhibitions rooted in emotional bonding to others as inferior creatures and, therefore, their rightful prey. Leave a Comment Aggressive Personalities include the Unbridled Aggressive, who is frequently in conflict with the law; the Channeled-Aggressive, who generally limits ruthlessness to non-criminal activity; the Covert-Aggressive, who cloaks their cruelty under a veneer of civility and manipulates others in the process; and the Sadistic Aggressive, whose principal aim is to demean and injure others:“ Understanding the Unbridled Aggressive Personality ”“ Understanding the Channeled-Aggressive Personality ”“ Beware the Covert-Aggressive Personality ”“ Understanding the Sadistic Personality ”But by far the most pathological aggressive personality is the one I prefer to label the Predatory Aggressive Personality. All of the aggressive personalities are among the most seriously disturbed in character of the various personality types, and the Predatory Aggressive Personality is the most seriously character disordered. Many labels have been given in the past to the personality type I call the Predatory Aggressive. The term psychopath was used in the early 20th century but was later more commonly replaced with the term sociopath. Recently, the term psychopath has regained popularity. But because I think personality is best define by an individual’s “style” of relating to others, I think the term predatory most accurately describes the interpersonal modus operandi of these individuals. Through the years, several opinions have been offered about what lies at the core of this most serious personality disturbance. Cleckley noted that their extraordinary difference in makeup from most people, especially with respect to matters of conscience or qualities long thought to comprise the “soul” of humanity bordered on an almost psychotic level of difference."

The answer begins on You Tube, where thousands of makeup tutorials are posted each day, including one by a vlogger named Amy Nicola back in June 2015. She reviewed a rosy highlighter developed by Becca Cosmetics in collaboration with one of You Tube’s biggest beauty stars, Jaclyn Hill. “When I first saw it on Snapchat, not even in person, I was like, I need it,” said Amy, holding the compact up to the camera and describing her skin tone for viewers as a reference. “ I consider myself medium tan to medium deep,” she said. “ I’m like an NC40 in MAC foundations, which I haven’t used in forever."

Nationwide delivery times for First Class average one- to five-days and over 96 percentof First Class mail is delivered the next day within the San Francisco Bay Area. One other difference between First Class and Standard mail, with First Class, the undeliverable mail (wrong address, for example) is returned to the sender free. Standard (Formerly called “Bulk Mail”) is a more economical method of mailing but it usually takes longer to arrive. We see nationwide average delivery times of one- to two-weeks and local averages of three- to ten-days. On rare occasions we also see next day delivery of Standard mail and about once a year it will take three weeks to get to its destination, these times are very unusual though. Think of Standard Mail as a low-cost alternative with a difficult-to-predict but longer delivery time. Standard postage may not be used for bills, invoices or other mailings which contain unique personal information."

Considering customer importance at all stages of the marketing process helps your company to ensure greater customer satisfaction and increase its long-term goal of repeat business. Psychological Considerations The psychological makeup of consumers plays a crucial role in developing a product and a marketing campaign that identifies and addresses consumer needs. According to Lars Perner, assistant professor of clinical marketing at the University of Southern California, some of these considerations include how consumers \"\"think, feel, reason and select between different alternatives.\"\" These considerations can be influenced by environment, such as culture, family and media. The purpose of marketing research is to identify these variables and to incorporate them into the campaign. Marketing Considerations Some of the considerations to take into account when marketing to your customers are honesty, integrity and clarity.

"text": "\"Review: Lip Sense by Sene Gence Long Lasting Liquid Lip Color August 25, 2010 by Amber 6 Comments Affiliate Link How many times have you purchased a lippie that promised to be long wearing, only to wind up so disappointed that it quickly found its way to the bottom of your makeup stash or nearest trash can? It’s happened to me more times than I care to remember. True long wearing lip colors are out there, but they’re far and few in-between, so I figured it wouldn’t hurt to let you in on one that I could not get to budge — pinkie swear. Lip Sense by Sene Gence isn’t a brand I’ve spied in any retail stores, so had I not been contacted by one of their representatives — I definitely would have missed out on it altogether. The formula itself is part liquid lipstick, part lip stain, and can be turned into a very long-wearing lip gloss by finishing with a coat of one of their Lip Sense glosses (which are available in several different finishes). I tried out the basic clear Moisturizing Gloss formula over my Lip Sense colors, but you can purchase them in matte, pearl, glitter, and diamond finishes as well. When you consider the number of shades available in Lip Sense Long Wearing Lip Color and the amount of glosses you can apply as a “top coat”, the combinations for your customized lip colors are pretty much endless. But does it work? Totally! It’s the closest thing to a bulletproof lip color that I’ve ever worn so far and blows any other long-wear lip gloss, lipstick, or lip stain I’ve tried in the past out of the water — in terms of length of wear."

"text": "Duplex Printing Definition - What does Duplex Printingmean? Duplex printing is the feature present in multifunction printers and computer printers which allows printing on both sides of paper. Only printers with built-in duplex capability allow users to print double sided without manually flipping over the page. Duplex printers are popular among small-to-medium-sized offices and consumers. Techopedia explains Duplex Printing Duplex printing in duplex-supported printers can be performed in two ways, namely auto duplexing and manual duplexing. To set a particular print for duplex, set the printing preferences for the document to “Print on both sides” before selecting the “Print” button. Duplex printers work by either printing simultaneously on both sides of the paper or by reversing the sheet of paper into a printer after printing on one side. Duplex printers help in reducing paper waste and thus are eco-friendly. It makes large print jobs more manageable and is better for conserving filing cabinet space. However, duplex printers have potential for an increased number of paper jams due to the complex multi-directional nature of printing involved."

"text": "\"Several of the publication types that you create in TE102750822 — including brochures, postcards, and newsletters — are double-sided publications. When you are ready to create these types of publications, you need to print the text and pictures on both sides of the paper. Learn about how duplex printing works Before you print a double-sided publication, it helps to understand how these publications are set up in TE102750822. For example, a postcard has a front side, where most of the information goes, and a back side for the mailing and return addresses. Even though these are two sides of the same printed sheet, TE102750822 displays them as two separate pages. If your printer supports duplex printing, and if you choose the duplex option when you print, the main message will be printed on one side of a single sheet and the addresses will be printed on the other side.2016, 2013, 2010 2007Find out whether your printer supports duplex printing You can usually find out whether your printer supports duplex printing either by looking at the information that came with the printer or by looking at the printer's properties. To look at the properties for your printer: Click File > Print. In the Printer list, select the printer you want to use, then click Printer Properties. If you see options for \"\"duplex printing,\"\" \"\"print on both sides,\"\" or something similar, your printer supports duplex printing.

"text": "Your guide Ben Keough After more than 35 hours of research and testing, we’re convinced that the HP Office Jet 8720 All-in-One Printer is the best (well, the least frustrating) all-in-one printer for most people. If you need a jack-of-all-trades—and master-of-none—machine for your home office or your family, this model will get the job done. It can print, scan, fax, and copy most regular documents, it runs faster than many inkjets at this price, and it feels sturdier than other AIOs we’ve tested over the years. HP’s interface seems more polished and refined than any other company’s, and that makes installation, everyday use, and even troubleshooting relatively painless. Per-page print costs are lower than those of most competing inkjets, at 1.6¢ per page for black and white and 8.1¢ for color. Though it’s best suited for document printing and scanning, it’s actually decent at printing photos when the need arises, too. This model is as close as you can get to a great, affordable all-arounder. Our pick HP Office Jet Pro 8720 All-in-One Printer The best all-in-one printer With worry-free installation, great software, cheap ink, and sharp results, this printer is easily the least annoying all-in-one you can buy. When it comes to printers, that’s really saying something. Buy from Amazon*At the time of publishing, the price was $200."

"text": "Printer Guides May 10, 2017 posted by Anna Cruz Share Inkjet vs Laser: Which Printer Is Right For You? Shopping for a printer without knowing what makes each one different from the other is a mission that’s bound to fail. The amount of options on the market these days can be overwhelming even for a seasoned buyer. Flashy features aside, you need to know how to strip each printer down to the basic functionalities you really need. With this guide, we hope to help you answer the most basic of all printer shopping questions: Should you get an inkjet or laser printer? The biggest differences between inkjet and laser printers is that an inkjet printer uses ink, is suitable for low volume printing, and is the traditional choice of home users, while a laser printer uses toner, is ideal for high volume printing, and is mostly utilized in (but not exclusive to) office settings. Inkjet printers are generally cheaper, smaller, and have the versatility to print both text-based documents and high quality images, especially photos. BUT be wary of cheap inkjet printers as those will end up costing you a fortune later on. Laser printers, on the other hand, offer a lower cost per page, faster print speeds and typically involve a lower total cost of ownership. Let’s take a closer look at the strengths and weaknesses of laser and inkjet printers so you can make your next purchase with confidence."

"text": "HP Photosmart Plus e All-in-One review HP redefines mobile printing with cunning new e Print features By Matthew Richards 2010-10-20T09:43:00.292Z Multi-function (MFD)HP Photosmart Plus e All-in-One: Overview HP Photosmart Plus e All-in-One: Verdict Fore Print remote printing system via email is excellent Competitive running costs with '364 XL' series high-yield cartridges Colour 8.9cm touchscreen interface is intuitive and highly effective Extra apps can be downloaded from HP's e Print Center to add versatility Separate photo input tray for media sizes up to 7 x 5-inches Against Combined SD/MMC and Memory Stick Duo card slot offers limited choices No auto duplex facility, unlike the 'Premium' version of this printer Photo quality lacks a little vibrancy and contrast Top quality print speeds are a little pedestrian Some print apps, like for daily news stories, are rather less green than viewing them on a smartphone or PDAWi-Fi is the way to go for home printing convenience, enabling you to output documents from any desktop computers or laptops around the home. But what happens when you're stuck at the office or out on the road and you want to print something out back at home? HP's new e-All-in-One series of printers feature a crafty e Print system, which enables you to send emails direct to the printer itself, after which it will automatically create prints from any attachments that you've added. Occupying the middle ground, the Photosmart Plus model adds a touch-screen colour LCD that's lacking on the more basic Wireless e-All-in-One printer, but doesn't stretch to auto duplex double-sided printing, as featured on the more up-market Premium e-All-in-One model. On the face of it, the Photosmart Plus e-All-in-One printer looks like a typical Wi-Fi multifunction device, combining a 9600dpi four-ink printing system with a 1200dpi scanner and memory card slots for SD cards, MMC and Memory Stick Duo. The four ink cartridges are individually replaceable and running costs are fairly low at around 2p per mono text page and 6.7p for colour, at least if you buy the high-yield 'XL' cartridges (standard yield cartridges are supplied with the printer). But there's more to the new version of the Photosmart Plus than meets the eye. Driven by a neat, yet generously proportioned, 8.9cm colour touchscreen LCD, the printer really gets into stride with web-enabled printing. After a quick and painless set-up routine, the printer can access the web directly, enabling you download apps and shortcuts for printing anything from greetings cards and Sudoku puzzles to Quick Forms for creating calendars, notebook pages, graph paper, music paper and more besides. Tasks like direct photo printing, photocopying and scanning directly to memory cards can also be handled easily and efficiently via the touchscreen."

"text": "\"How to Hook Up an Ethernet Switchby George Pickard The Ethernet switch is a basic component of the computer network. It connects computers, printers and routers on your network. The switch is an intelligent device that learns which devices are plugged into which ports and “switches” network traffic from one host to another based on that knowledge. You can install a switch to create a local area network (LAN) or to expand the number of devices on your current network. Physical Setup1Consider locating your switch where physical access is controlled. Security should be a primary concern when setting up your Ethernet switch.2Ensure that you’re Ethernet switch is located in a cool, well-ventilated area. Leave ample space around the switch for heat dispersion.3Power your switch on. Connect the devices you wish to network to the switch. Plug one end of an Ethernet cable to your device’s Network Interface, and the other end to an open port on the switch. After a few seconds, the indicator light for that port on the switch should change from off, or yellow, to flashing green."

"text": "Some printers offer the option of automatically printing on both sides of a sheet of paper (automatic duplex printing). Other printers provide instructions so that you can manually reinsert pages to print the second side (manual duplex printing). Some printers do not support duplex printing at all.2016, 2013, 2010 2007Find out whether your printer supports automatic duplex printing To find out whether your printer supports duplex printing, you can check your printer manual or consult your printer manufacturer, or you can do the following: Click the File tab. Click Print. Under Settings, click Print One Sided. If Print on Both Sides is available, your printer is set up for duplex printing. Notes: If you are printing to a combination copy machine and printer, and the copy machine supports two-sided copying, it probably supports automatic duplex printing. If you have more than one printer installed, it is possible that one printer supports duplex printing and another printer does not. Set up a printer to print to both sides of a sheet of paper If your printer doesn't support automatic duplex printing, you have two other options. You can use manual duplex printing, or you can print the odd and even pages separately."

[ Photographs: Yvonne Ruperti]Durian's reputation preceded my arrival to Singapore. I'd read about the gasoline-like aroma. I'd seen the \"\"no durians allowed\"\" warnings that are posted all over the subway entrances. I'd watched Anthony Bourdain talk about how rank it is. I was definitely scared. I also made it one of the first things I would try when I finally landed in this hot, humid country. Assorted durian treats Durian pastries at Durian Empire, Jurong Point, 1 Jurong West Central, 02-K9. I did not have to look far. Durian is everywhere—in ice cream, pastries, custards, shaved ice desserts, and hard candies to suck on, just in case you really want the experience to linger."

"text": "\"By Gregory Rodgers Updated 05/17/17Share Pin Email•••No other fruit inspires so much love or hate, with little middle ground. It's banned in public places, but craved by addicts all over Southeast Asia. It's the region's most (in) famous fruit, durian. The strange-looking durian enjoys a fanatical following that escalates particularly with rare and costly breeds. You don't have to spend too much to enjoy it: no visit to Southeast Asia is complete without sampling durian fruit at least once!Eating Durian Fruit With weights of up to seven pounds, a thorny armor, and unbelievable smell, the durian's title of \"\"king of the fruits\"\" holds strong. Durian trees actually grow so tall that a matrix of nets must be hung to protect workers on the ground. Getting hit by a falling durian would be seriously bad for your health. In contradiction to its medieval appearance on the outside, durian flesh is actually soft, delicate, and creamy. Durian fruit can be eaten with a spoon, much like a firm custard. The handful of large, stone-like seeds can be easily removed."

"text": "Tropical fruit is any fruit produced by a tree native to the tropics. The tropics are generally defined as the region of the globe between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, and the environmental conditions there are unique, creating a habitat for incredibly diverse animals and plants. Many tropical fruits have been used by humans for centuries, and certain fruits are in high demand all over the world. Several things about the growing conditions in the tropics are unique, setting the stage for trees, vines, and other plants which grow nowhere else in the world. The most obvious distinguishing feature of the tropics is the heat. The tropics are warm, year-round, and they are also very humid, with some areas receiving lots of rain every year. Plants in this area have adapted to this climate, and many tropical fruits are large, brightly colored, and very flavorful so that they appeal to the animals they rely on to distribute their seeds. Some tropical fruits are pretty well known all over the world. Pomegranates, mangoes, papayas, avocados, bananas, pineapples, guavas, star fruits, kiwis, dates, and passion fruit are some well-known examples. In fact, the banana is one of the highest selling fruits around the world, thanks to the ease with which it can be grown, harvested, and transported."

"text": "Travel Living Like a Local in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia Next Stop By IAN URBINA FEB. 12, 2015Pausing to watch the sunset from the city's boardwalk. Adam Dean for The New York Times The world’s third-largest island (after Greenland and New Guinea), Borneo has roughly 287,000 square miles divided among three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia and the tiny sultanate of Brunei. Famous for its orangutan reserves and five-star comforts, the island offers many exotic novelties. Some people come to hike Mount Kinabalu, with an elevation of 13,435 feet and the world’s highest via ferrata (Italian for “iron path”), a protected climbing route with a steel cable pegged to the rock face so climbers can secure themselves. The wildlife is a big draw, too, including Asia’s smallest elephant (the Pygmy) and the world’s biggest population of Proboscis monkeys (known for their large noses and pot bellies). There is good reason that the first season of “Survivor” was filmed on one of Borneo’s satellite islands, Pulau Tiga, with its active mud volcanoes and dense infestation of snakes. Borneo also has some of the best scuba diving in the world and volcanic mud baths, where river carp offer a “natural” pedicure by eating people’s dead skin. “Forget all that” was the advice I got from my globe-trotting friends. If you visit the island, they said, do two things."

"text": "BATSBy Rhett Butler | Last updated July 30, 2012 The most abundant mammals in the rainforest are not large ground-dwelling creatures, but bats. The tropics have the greatest variety of bats, and accordingly, the most diverse mammalian group of the tropical rainforest is bats, making up over 50 percent of mammal species. Bats range in size from the giant flying foxes, with wingspans of six feet (1.8 m), to the tiny bumblebee bat of Thailand, the world's smallest mammal, weighing less than an American penny. Equally diverse are the feeding habits of tropical bats, which include fruit, nectar, blood, and carnivorous feeders; and the places bats choose for shelter. Although most bats of the world are insectivores, rainforests have a high percentage of fruit eaters. While insectivorous and other carnivorous bats rely on echolocation to find their prey, fruit-eating bats depend mostly on sight and a sophisticated sense of smell. True fruit-eating bats, the flying foxes of Madagascar, India, Sri Lanka, Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and Australia, did not reach the New World, so their niche was filled by spear-nosed fruit bats which evolved from insect-eating bats. Today, countless canopy plant species depend on bats for pollination or seed dispersal, making bats the best mammalian dispersal agents. Flying foxes are the fruit bats of the Old World and are limited to the tropics by their need for fruit year round. Visitors to areas frequented by flying foxes are likely to notice trees with hundreds and even thousands of pod-like forms that shriek incessantly."

In the third layer, the understory is always humid and it receives about 2 to 15% of light. This layer includes trunks of canopy trees, shrubs, plants and small trees. The rain forest plants made adaptations to their environment. With more than 80 inches of rain annually, plants made an adaption to help them let water fall off their leaves quickly so the branches don't get soaked and break. Many have drip tips and grooved leaves or oily coating on their leaves to help shed off the water. Since there is not much sunlight in the dark understory, their leaves are very big to absorb as much sunlight as possible, while leaves in the upper canopy are dark green and small to lessen water loss from the strong sunlight. Bromeliads grow in the upper canopy on the larger trees to get sunlight. Many tress have buttress and silt roots for support in the wet, flat soil of the rain fores ts.

Garcinia cambogia extract (GCE) comes from a tropical fruit from India and Southeast Asia. The active ingredient, hydroxycitric acid (HCA), is said to block fat and suppress the appetite. Dr. Oz has promoted a series of weight loss supplements on his show. Raspberry ketones were presented as a fat-busting miracle, then green coffee bean extract was touted as “magic,” “staggering,” and “unprecedented.” And now both of those miracles have apparently been superseded by an even greater miracle: Garcinia cambogia extract.

Penang's beaches are nice, though a little lacklustre when compared to those in some other Malaysian states, but this is more than compensated for by the island's rich multicultural history dating back to the beginnings of British colonisation in the 18th. century, and is full of Malay, Chinese, Indian and European influences.

I was attracted to visiting Yala, Thailand, partly because it’s a significant producer of durian, and partly because it’s still a big empty space on Google Maps. Parisa and I noticed it as we huddled over my computer, plotting durian pinpoints for our Southern Thailand Durian Trip of Awesomeness. In between Yala City on the northern border, and Betong City on the southern border with Malaysia, was a 3 hour drive through the apparent unknown. What durians could we find there? I was excited to think there was still a place not yet documented and filed away by Google, a place where we couldn’t 100% know what to expect (although you can still go to Street View along the main highway). There’s just not a lot about Yala online. You can’t book a hotel on Agoda in Yala (except in Betong). Travel Fish, my go-to travel resource, had nothing to say about Yala except the sea food is good, which is weird because it’s a landlocked province. It was up to us to find out the durian scene in Yala, and report back to you."

With an endless growth of new Western influenced restaurants, it can be easy to forget about the street hawker food that most Indonesian locals actually frequent. This guide serves to provide an authentic guide on what foods to eat in Jakarta which you can find at the road side, small shops and even in restaurants or food courts. Indonesia cuisine, because of it’s strategic trading geography, also sees influences from China, India and European countries which become even more distinct near the coastal cities. Hainanese origin of many dishes is also prevalent from the influx of Chinese in the past. Many of the foods in Jakarta city have been brought in from various parts of Indonesia and been adapted to the region. For the sake of simplicity, I will only be highlighting common foods that can be found here, even though there is an endless variation if you just venture out of Jakarta.1. Pisang Goreng Sambal Roa (Fried Banana with Chili)Pisang Goreng is a deep fried batter fritter and in Indonesia, is accompanied with Sambal chili. The banana used in Jakarta is not overly ripe and sweet unlike Singapore, still retaining a starchy firm body. The sambal roa is made with fish and adds extreme spicy kick."

In chemical terms, oleic acid is classified as a monounsaturatedomega-9 fatty acid, abbreviated with a lipid number of 18:1 cis -9. It has the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 7 CH=CH (CH 2) 7 COOH. [ 2] The term \"\"oleic\"\" means related to, or derived from, olive oil, which is mostly composed of oleic acid-rich triglycerides.

Instead fatty acids like oleic acid occur as their esters, commonly triglycerides, which are the greasy materials in many natural oils. Fatty acids can be obtained by the saponification of triglycerides. Triglycerides of oleic acid comprise the majority of olive oil."

The tongue of a Dawn Bat is long and can be thrust forward into flowers, while brush-like projections allow it to pick up pollen and nectar. The male dawn bat is larger than the female. They weigh from 55 to 82 grams while females weigh 35 to 78 grams. Dawn Bats are 8.5 to 12.5 cm long from head to tail. They either have a very small tail or none at all. Their forearm length is 6 to 8 cm long. The genus Eonycteris doesn't have a claw on their index finger like most other bats. Female Dawn Bats reach sexual maturity after one year while males become sexually mature in two years."

And then there are the Kauravas, the bad guys. The character we talk about the least is Karna - the ill-fated guy, the low-born king and the man who was accidentally cursed several times. But the role of Karna’s in the Mahabharata is important all the same. We bring you 10 lesser known stories about the ‘suryaputra’, proving he was nothing less than a hero.1. Karna was sharper than Yudhishtirayoutube/startv Here’s why. Once, Arjuna asked Lord Krishna why he called Yudhishtira, Dharamaraj, and Karna, Daanveer. To answer this question, Krishna disguised himself and Arjuna as Brahmins and decided to visit both the kings. On visiting Yudhishitra, they asked for sandalwood to cook food. It was raining heavily at the time, and Yudhishitra couldn’t find dry sandalwood suitable to be used as a fuel."

Whenever I think about it; only one character comes to my mind—Karna. The Mahabharata is not named after a single hero or even a group of heroes; it is simply impossible to reduce the epic to a convenient cast of “main characters”, or “heroes”. It’s an epic full of heroes. No doubt, epics like Odyssey (Odysseus), The Aeneid (Aeneas), Beowulf (Beowulf), The Ramayana (Rama), The Song of Roland (Roland), The Lay of the Cid (El Cid), Orlando Furioso (Orlando) etc. are mainly about their heroes despite having a decent supporting cast. But there are disputes over “Who is the real HERO of the Mahabharata?” Is it Krishna or Arjuna or Bhishma? No, it is none of them. It is Karna who stands out the entire episode."

"docid": "D1219100#0",
"title": "http://www.zena.net/htdocs/FAQ/dutycycle.shtml\n.",
"text": "\"Back to Previous Welder FAQ Index ZENA Web Site Map What does the term \"\"duty cycle\"\" mean? Duty cycle is a welding equipment specification which defines the number of minutes, within a 10 minute period, during which a given welder can safely produce a particular welding current. For example, a 150 amp. welder with a 30% duty cycle must be \"\"rested\"\" for at least 7 minutes after 3 minutes of continuous welding. ( When you are paying an employee for welding, anything less than 100% duty wastes money. ) Failure to carefully observe duty cycle limitations can easily over stress a welder's power generation system contributing to premature welder failure. Many welders do not have internal protection systems that prevent this sort of over stress -- leaving the task to the owner or operator. NOTE: Unlike conventional, old technology welders, ZENA welders are designed not to generate more power than they can safely produce continuously -- true 100% duty cycle operation -- freeing our customers from the need to worry about welding system duty cycles and equipment damage from overheating. Look carefully at welder specifications. Many welding equipment manufacturers will identify a particular welder by its maximum possible power generation capacity, even though that welder may only be able to produce that level of power for a short period of time."

Underwater welders make a LOT of money [over $100/hr], but it is also one of the most dangerous jobs. A welder in a body shop might make a few bucks more an hour than minimum wage [$10-$12/hr], while an iron worker gets the high prevailing wage [$38-$44/hr] for steel building erecting or pipeline construction.

"text": "Welding Cable What is Welding Cable? The 2014 National Electric Code © (NEC) Article 630 Electric Welders defines welding cable as cable designed for use in secondary circuits of electric welders. 1 Welding cable typically consists of a single, finely stranded conductor that ranges in size from 8 AWG to 500 kcmil and a single layer of EPDM or neoprene thermoset insulation with an operating temperature rating of 90°C or 105°C. Welding cable is thermoset (as opposed to thermoplastic) to better resist weld splatter. The cable is typically rated 600 volts but can also be rated 100 volts. Welding cable is known for its flexibility and durability, and many automatic and manual welding applications require the cable to hold up to repeated movement over rough surfaces. Welding Applications The two main types of electric welding, as defined in NEC 2014 Article 630, are resistance welding and arc welding. In both welding types, welding cable is used to power the electrode. Resistance welding is the process where heat used for fusing two overlapping metals together is generated from the resistance of the materials. The metals are placed between two electrodes (also known as welding points) and low-voltage, high-current electricity is passed from one point to the other."

"text": "\"Basic Tips to Improve Stick Welding Print Article Whether you're an experienced welder or just learning Stick (Shielded Metal Arc Welding), the tips and techniques detailed here will help improve your welding skills. Shellfish can make you a better welder. Simply think about CLAMS: Current setting, Length of arc, Angle of electrode, Manipulation of the electrode and Speed of travel. If you're just learning the Stick process, technically called Shielded Metal Arc Welding, remembering these five points will improve your welding technique. Before leaping into the \"\"how to weld\"\" information presented later in this article, take a minute to review the following advice, especially if you've never struck an arc or are still debating which machine to buy. Q: What type of Stick welder works best for all-around use? A: A welder with an AC/DC output, whether its an electric arc machine like Miller's Thunderbolt or a gas engine drive like Miller's Bobcat. DC welding offers advantages over AC for most Stick applications, including: easier starts; fewer arc outages and sticking; less spatter/better looking welds; easier vertical up and overhead welding; easier to learn \"\"how to weld\"\" and a smoother arc. DC reverse polarity (electrode positive) provides about 10 percent more penetration at a given amperage than AC, while DC straight polarity (electrode negative) welds thinner metals better. Q: Does an AC output have any advantages?"

"text": "\"What is ARC Welding Introduction SHIELDED METAL ARC WELDING (SMAW), commonly called stick, or covered electrode, welding, is a manual welding process that uses a welding power supply to create an electric an arc between a flux-covered consumable electrode and the workpiece to melt the metals at the welding point. The process uses the decomposition of the flux covering to generate a shielding gas and to provide fluxing elements to protect the molten weld-metal droplets and the weld pool. They can use either direct (DC) or alternating (AC) current, and consumable or non-consumable electrodes. The process uses the decomposition of the flux covering to generate a shielding gas and to provide fluxing elements to protect the molten weld-metal droplets and the weld pool. Figure 1: SHIELDED METAL ARC WELDINGThe SMAW Process The SMAW process is the most widely used welding process. The arc is initiated by momentarily touching or \"\"scratching\"\" the electrode on the base metal. The resulting arc melts both the base metal and the tip of the welding electrode. The molten electrode metal and flux is transferred across the arc (by arc forces) to the base-metal pool, where the welding region is usually protected by some type of shielding gas, vapor, and/or slag. How to strike and establish an arc? A welding arc is maintained when the welding current is forced across a gap between the electrode tip and the base metal."

"text": "\"MIG Aluminum DIY: Selecting the Right Welder, Spool Gun and Filler Wire for Success at Home Print Article One of the hottest trends in welding at home or on the farm is adding MIG aluminum capabilities to a Millermatic® all-in-one MIG welder by complementing it with a Spoolmate™ 100 or Spoolmatic® spool gun. Spool guns improve the \"\"feedability\"\" of aluminum wire by locating a small, 1-lb. ( 4-in. diameter) spool of wire on a pistol-grip style gun. Because spool guns only need to feed the wire just a few inches before it hits the weld puddle, they eliminate the potential problems created by pushing soft aluminum wire 10 or 15 ft. through a regular gun. By using a spool gun, you'll spend more time making better welds and less time cussing at a \"\"bird nest\"\" of wire tangled around your drive rolls. Here are some common questions and answers that will improve your understanding of aluminum and help you make the right equipment and filler metal choice. Q: How do I know which spool gun to use with my welder? A: First of all, understand what spool guns are compatible with your welder or the welder you are purchasing."

At times, I need to cut through really thick steel sheets, say of almost an inch in thickness. Similarly, I also have to cut to through really long sheets of copper. When I started this home business three years back, I knew that a plasma cutter is perhaps the most efficient tool for me to handle such diverse tasks. This is perhaps because in the welding world, such a tool offers an optimal blend of speed, prudent fuel use, finest outcome, safety, ease of use, and least flaws, when used with the right welder. Since 1960’s, plasma cutters are popular for their quickest and finest cuts without much hassle or errors. Further, they are also admired for their versatility, as they are capable of cutting copper, aluminum, steel, and stainless steel to mold into any size and shape. However, the unit in use should be robust enough to handle the thick and long metal with a longer duty cycle. However, I was hesitating to go for a plasma cutter. Why?"

Things to Consider When Choosing a Plasma Cutter When both speed and cut quality matter, plasma cutters are the answer. Plasma cutters enable clean, dross-free cuts with minimal heat input on both ferrous and non-ferrous materials. When choosing a plasma cutter, your first consideration is the thickness of material you want it to cut on a regular basis. Thick material requires higher amperage. If you plan on cutting both thick and thin materials, consider a high amperage machine with variable power. Another important consideration: how fast do you want your plasma cutter to cut?"

There are tips for working the steel, types of tools and some clear warnings on working with steel. Steps1 Build a small forge. A simple one can be built by adding an airblast of any kind that is strong enough to withstand any kind of fire, but coal or charcoal (not briquets) works best.2 Get some steel rods or rebar. Make sure they are about 3 feet (0.9 m) long, so you can hold onto a cool part of the steel while forging on the ends or other parts of the bar.3 Assemble your tools. A hammer can be easily found at yard sales, antique stores, or just a plain ball peen hammer from the local hardware store will work, as long as the face is smooth and doesn't have any grooves. If your hammer has grooves, you'll need to sand them out. One hammer is all that is needed for now, and a nice pair of vice-grips or pliers will work as tongs. If you are lucky enough to have an anvil already, good for you, but if you don't, a section of railroad rail or any big, heavy lump of steel with a flat face will work well (they are known as ASOs, Anvil Shaped Objects).4 Build your fire.

Here are some common mistakes welders make and how you can avoid them. Common issues in pipe welding and how to resolve them We get a lot of questions about welding pipe. Whether it’s about welding high-pressure pipe, high purity pipe for food and beverage industries, or pipe for the oil and gas industries, there are a number of common elements we see in pipe welding and fabrication that lead to problems. These include everything from improper shielding gas and drive rolls to choosing a MIG gun with too low of an amperage rating. As companies push to train new welders, work with new materials, increase quality and productivity, and improve safety, it is important to focus on some of these basic variables in the pipe welding process that can affect these efforts. In this article, we’ll look at 13 of the most common issues we see in pipe welding applications and how to resolve them.1. Forgetting to grind the joint after oxyfuel or plasma cutting Both the oxyfuel and plasma cutting processes add a layer of oxide to the cut edge. This oxide layer must be removed prior to welding, as the oxide often has a higher melting point than the base metal. Once the arc gets hot enough to melt the oxide, it’s too hot for the base metal and can lead to burnthrough."

Once I actually broke down and bought one, I found a huge number of projects I could use it on from making brackets for my video studio lights to building cargo trailers. If you’re looking at buying a welder, you’ve probably at least thought about buying a MIG. Compared to “stick” welders, these models are definitely the way to go. I can’t weld worth beans with a stick welder because my hands shake too much, but with a wire feed I can weld circles around almost any problem or project. What I usually say is that you can teach a monkey to weld with a wire feed welder. By definition, a MIG welder uses a shielding gas around the electrode. This tool was originally developed for welding aluminum because this material oxidizes as soon as it’s cut. The shielding gas comes through the same line that brings the welding wire and covers the weld, thus preventing that oxidation and allowing aluminum to be welded. The same welding system was later put to work for steel and stainless steel."

Pay attention to the warmth rating; warmer comforters usually feature thicker fill levels and a higher loft. If you can’t find a warmth rating, look for the fill power. A high fill-power rating indicates more warmth, so a comforter with a 650 fill-power rating is warmer than one with a 500 fill-power rating. The comforter’s exterior fabric can range from cotton or polyester to silk and sateen. Caring for Down Comforters Since down comforters have no cover, so they should be used with a top sheet to reduce the need to wash the comforter as often. However, most down comforters are machine washable, so cleaning your comforter at home is usually easy and convenient.

Can you put any kind of comforter inside it or are there ones specially designed for duvet covers? Do you put your blanket inside the cover along with a comforter?

Last question... is there an easy way to put the comforter inside the cover? It does have ties in the corner but I don't see how to easily secure a comforter in the far corners without crawling inside or practically turning the cover inside out.

"text": "Choose the Best Summer Duvet One of the most important factors required to have a good night's sleep, is achieving the perfect temperature in bed. Technically, this is known as the 'thermo-neutral' and is between 28-29° C (82-84° F), a bit below normal body temperature. In order to achieve this is the summer, one needs to sleep under the most appropriate tog for summer, generally a 4.5 TOG DUVET, whatever the duvet filling.4.5 Tog Spundown Duvet The Ultimate Washable Duvet Hypoallergenic Now £31.85Was £37.50Mulberry Silk Duvet Hypoallergenic Now £55.00Was £65.004.5 Tog 90% Hungarian Goose Down Duvet Naturals SILVER Collection£160.007 Tog Spundown Duvet The Ultimate Washable Duvet Hypoallergenic Now £34.00Was £40.007 Tog Breathable Microfibre Duvet with Modal Temperature Regulating Hypoallergenic Washable£47.50Children's Super Soft Anti-Allergy Duvet Ultra Washable Duvet Hypoallergenic Now £18.00Was £20.003 Tog Cotton duvets The 3 tog cotton duvet are 100% cool cotton summer duvets, ideal for hot nights. Cotton is perfect for those who can’t tolerate an animal-based product, but who don’t want synthetic. These thin summer duvets offer high moisture absorbency, are hypoallergenic, machine-washable and the light fill weight makes them feel rather like a quilted blanket. The cotton fill will pack down slightly over time (unlike a filling such as wool or down, which remains fluffy throughout its lifetime) but you can fluff them up by tumbling drying them with a clean tennis ball (or do it the old-fashioned way by beating it with a mattress beater).3 Tog and 4.5 tog Spundown Duvet - Luxury Microfibre Summer Duvets Should you prefer a particularly soft and light summer duvet that is also machine washable (without paying a premium - as required when washing a natural down duvet), then either a 3 tog or 4.5 tog Spundown duvet, depending upon the amount of warmth required, will provide the perfect choice of light summer duvet for you. These supremely popular microfibre duvets are also hypoallergenic and completely unique in their ability to be washed in a domestic washing machine. And that includes the super kingsize Spundown duvets!4 Tog 100% Mulberry Silk Summer Duvet The ultimate luxury, this duvet is filled with blissfully light mulberry silk floss so it drapes gently over the contours of your body for a truly comfortable night's sleep. Silk duvets are also exceptionally 'breathable', drawing moisture away from the body to help regulate body temperature and keep you cool on warm summer nights. There are three options of Mulberry silk duvet to choose from, either a 4 tog, a 9 tog or a 13 tog Comination (Four Seasons) duvet."

Also External links \"\"Duvets vs Comforters\"\" \"\"How to fit a Duvet Cover\"\"... please copy and paste here. Thanks & 10 points for your help...4 following 3 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Here you go :) A duvet (pronounced /duːveɪ/, from the French duvet /dyvɛ/ \"\"down\"\") is a type of bedding— a soft flat bag traditionally filled with down or feathers, or a combination of both and used on a bed as a blanket. Duvets originally came out of rural Europe and were made of Eider, a type of duck's down, which is well known for its usefulness as an insulator. A comforter is a type of bedding — a soft flat bag used on a bed as a type of bed cover. It is filled with either an artificial material (such as polyester batting) or a natural material. A comforter usually doesn't cover the pillows or box spring of the bed. It is basically a luxurious thick, fluffy blanket that people put on their bed to achieve a much higher level of comfort and warmth. A similar type covering made from feathers (often including down) is generally referred to as a duvet. A quilt is a type of bedding— a bed covering composed of a quilt top, a layer of batting, and a layer of fabric for backing, generally combined using the technique of quilting."

"text": "Home Buying Guides Everything Else Every Other Thing What are duvet covers?duvet-cover-sets-direct 3.4K Views Like Share August 28, 2016When shopping online for bedding you will often find Duvet Covers or Duvet Cover Sets and if you never used them before you will wonder what they are and what is their purpose. Let me explain what duvet covers are and what are they are good for. Simply put a Duvet Cover is a large pillow case with an opening at one end allowing you to insert a comforter or a quilt or even a blanket. The opening is at the footer of this large pillow case and usually comes with a zipper or buttons or even better plastic snaps to close it after you insert your choice of filler. OK now you can see that a Duvet Cover is totally different than a Duvet pronounced [doo-vey] (dropping out the t) and comes from the French word to describe a down filled quilt. So make no mistake and confuse Duvet Covers with Duvets which in reality are comforters filled with some sort of insulating fiber. Now lets talk about why you should consider buying Duvet Covers instead of plain bedding sheets in combination with a comforter or quilt. Duvet covers have been popular in Europe for many years but now they are making their way into the American market and for many good reasons. Duvet Covers have many advantages over plan sheets:- Duvet Covers primarily allow you to decorate your bedroom like you never did before and with little money. The reason is that it costs much more to buy quality comforters and when you find them the choice of designs are very limited."

"text": "\"College Dorm Bedding Tips - What is Twin XL? When shopping for college dorm bedding for your Twin XL bed it is important to know what you need and when that Twin XL size matters. We're here to give you the break down of the different bedding necessities and if that Twin XL size really matters for it. It Matters: 1) Sheets - Since your sheets will include a flat sheet, a pillow case, and a fitted sheet, it is important that the sheets purchased are labeled Twin XL. The reason is that in order for the fitted sheet to fit it must be made for Twin XL beds. In other words, it has to be 80\"\" L. 2) Comforters - If you ask some people, they feel that purchasing a twin sized comforter is fine for a Twin XL bed but if you ask others they will tell you that it must be Twin XL. The twin comforter was made for a twin bed which is 75\"\" long with the idea that you get 10\"\" extra length. If that is the perfect length for a standard twin bed, then for an 80\"\" Twin XL bed you would want a comforter that is a true Twin XL which would be 90\"\" long.3) Mattress Pad / Mattress Topper / Mattress Encasing - As you can see all these products start with the term mattress, which means in order to fit Twin XL beds and the associated mattress they also have to be sized correctly. You cannot get a twin and expect it to fit. Look for Twin XL sized products with a 79\"\" or higher length.4) Duvet Covers - A duvet cover is a great addition to college dorm bedding supplies whether you have a Down comforter or not."

Similar to a pillow with its case, a duvet is usually protected with a removable cover. Duvet inserts typically consist of soft, flat bags filled with feathers, down, silk, wool, or a synthetic alternative. Should you buy a duvet or a comforter? Americans tend to confuse duvets with comforters, but there are some important differences. A duvet has a cover, it is thicker, and it is often used as a top bed sheet. Duvet inserts should fit neatly inside the duvet cover, which can be removed and cleaned when necessary. A comforter, on the other hand, is usually a thick, quilted, fluffy blanket that is used to keep you warm. It is typically packed with fiber padding, which is either sewn or quilted to secure the filling and keep it uniformly distributed. Duvets are beautiful to look at, and they also offer some flexibility."

What the shop does offer tho, is storage there for 50p per week which includes insurance should anything happen to it. It wont actually come into the shop tho until june for my fittings etc and the charge doesnt start until i am completely happy with the dress and no more alterations need doing. Could you see if this is something they have available? for 50p a week it seems worth it because the amount of steaming it would take if the dress has been in a wardrobe would probably be a hell of a lot."

Use special clips or clamps to keep your comforter in place in a duvet cover. . Position the duvet on the bed with the top edge of the duvet at the top of the bed and the opening of the duvet facing the bottom of the bed. The duvet must be gathered at the top edge of the bed so that you are able to reach inside the bottom opening and reach the top two corners to position the comforter inside the duvet. Insert the top right corner of the comforter into the top right corner of the duvet, and secure it with one duvet clip to hold it in place. Insert the top left corner of the comforter into the top left corner of the duvet, and secure it in the same way with a duvet clip. Lift the duvet and comforter by the top right and left corners and shake firmly to bring the duvet cover down over the comforter. Continue shaking until the duvet covers as much of the comforter as possible. Lay the duvet and comforter back on the bed, and pull the duvet down so that the entire comforter is inside the duvet. Adjust the bottom right and left corners and place a duvet clip in each corner to hold the comforter in place."

Some drives can only read from certain discs, but recent drives can both read and record, also called burners or writers. Compact discs, DVDs, and Blu-ray discs are common types of optical media which can be read and recorded by such drives. Optical disc drives that are no longer in production include CD-ROM drive, CD writer drive, combo (CD-RW/DVD-ROM) drive, and DVD writer drive supporting certain recordable and rewritable DVD formats (such as DVD-R (W) only, DVD+R (W) only, DVD-RAM only, and all DVD formats except DVD-R DL). As of 2015, DVD writer drive supporting all existing recordable and rewritable DVD formats is the most common for desktop PCs and laptops. There are also the DVD-ROM drive, BD-ROM drive, Blu-ray Disc combo (BD-ROM/DVD±RW/CD-RW) drive, and Blu-ray Disc writer drive. Optical disc drives are an integral part of standalone appliances such as CD players, DVD players, Blu-ray disc players, DVD recorders, certain desktop video game consoles, such as Sony Play Station 4, Microsoft Xbox One, Nintendo Wii U, and Sony Play Station 3, and certain portable video game consoles, such as Sony Play Station Portable."

The data they collected indicated that the overall quality of LTH discs is worse than HTL discs.

Follow 6 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: when you burn something, the burner program will say insert blank media. Read this message clearly as it says what type to insert. If it says CD then you cannot use a DVD. this means that you have to set the burner program to DVD before you compile the burn.chezzrob · 7 years ago0 0 Comment If it's dual layer DVD then your drive has to support dual layer to use I think and you have to make sure it is capable of running DVDs as well as CDs.

Here’s another Daily Drill Down in my “All About” series, which sheds some light on the specifications and usage of various pieces of hardware. Earlier pieces have tackled IDE ( \"\"All about IDE\"\" ), CD-ROM ( \"\"All about CD-ROM standards\"\" ), and CD-R ( \"\"All about CD-R and CD-RW\"\" ), and now it’s time to take on the Digital Versatile Disk, or DVD. How does DVD compare to CD-ROM? Let’s start with something easy—comparing a regular DVD drive (nonwritable) to a regular CD-ROM drive (also nonwritable). DVD is basically a souped-up version of CD-ROM, technologically speaking. As you learned in my \"\"All About CD-R and CD-RW\"\" Daily Drill Down, CD-ROM data is stored in patterns of pitted and unpitted (“land”) areas on a disc. DVD data is stored the same way, except the pits are much smaller and closer together. That’s why CD-ROMs top out at about 650-700 MB of data, while DVDs can hold multiple gigabytes of data. Since the pits are more tightly written on a DVD disc, the mechanism in the drive for reading them also has to be finer and more precise."

Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.0:00 / 6:16Computer storage is measured in bytes, kilobytes (KB), megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and increasingly terabytes (TB). One byte is one character of information, and is comprised of eight bits (or eight digital 1's or 0's). Technically a kilobyte is 1024 bytes, a megabyte 1024 kilobytes, a gigabyte 1024 megabytes, and a terabyte 1024 gigabytes. This said, whilst this remains true when it comes to a computer's internal RAM and solid state storage devices (like USB memory sticks and flash memory cards), measures of hard disk capacity often take 1MB to be 1,000,000 bytes (not 1,024,768 bytes) and so on. This means that the storage capacity of two devices labelled as the same size can be different, and which remains an ongoing source of debate within the computer industry. Any sensible computer user will plan for two categories of storage. These will comprise the storage necessary to keep files internally on their computer, as well as those media required to back-up, transfer and archive data (as also explored in the security section). In turn, when deciding on suitable external storage devices, the key questions to be asked should be how much data actually needs to be stored, and whether the external data archive will be subject to random-access or incremental change."

This drive was also capable of reading and writing MS-DOS formatted disks and FAT12 file formats, using PC Exchange or other software, unlike the 400 KB and 800 KB drives.

"text": "\"The Benefits of Secondary Storage Picture, if you can, how many filing-cabinet drawers would be required to hold the millions of files of, say, tax records kept by the Internal Revenue Service or historical employee records kept by General Motors. The record storage rooms would have to be enormous. Computers, in contrast, permit storage on tape or disk in extremely compressed form. Storage capacity is unquestionably one of the most valuable assets of the computer. Secondary storage, sometimes called auxiliary storage, is storage separate from the computer itself, where you can store software and data on a semi permanent basis. Secondary storage is necessary because memory, or primary storage, can be used only temporarily. If you are sharing your computer, you must yield memory to someone else after your program runs; if you are not sharing your computer, your programs and data will disappear from memory when you turn off the computer. However, you probably want to store the data you have used or the information you have derived from processing; that is why secondary storage is needed. Furthermore, memory is limited in size, whereas secondary storage media can store as much data as necessary. Keep in mind the characteristics of the memory hierarchy that were described in the section on the CPU and memory : Storage Speed Capacity Relative Cost ($) Permanent?"

At a molecular level, viscosity is a result the interaction between the different molecules in a fluid. This can be also understood as friction between the molecules in the fluid. Just like in the case of friction between moving solids, viscosity will determine the energy required to make a fluid flow. How do we measure it?"

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

S Davies & R M J Gray British Dental Journal 191, 235 – 245 (08 September 2001)doi :10.1038/sj.bdj.4801151Download Citation Published online:08 September 2001Abstract The aim of this series of papers is to explore the role of occlusion in dental practice. The range of opinion in the dental profession as to the importance of occlusion is enormous. 1 It is very important that the profession in general and practising dentists in particular have a balanced view of occlusion. This is more important than every patient having a balanced occlusion. The fact that the study of occlusion is characterised by extremes makes it confusing and possibly difficult for individual dentists to find a philosophy which is in line with contemporary good practice supported by evidence from practice-based research. Key points In this part, we will discuss: What 'occlusion' is Why occlusion is important The significance of 'ideal occlusion'Main'Occlusion' There is no escape Dentists cannot: Repair Move Remove Teethwithout being involved in occlusion At one end of the spectrum are dentists who believe that they can go through their working lives with scant regard for their patients' occlusion. They seem to believe that essentially they can conduct their practice ignoring the occlusal consequences of the treatments that they perform daily. Whereas all dentists know of the importance of the good marginal adaptation of their restoration to the health of the adjoining dental and periodontal tissues, some dentists do not appreciate the potential consequences of poor occlusal contact to the opposing teeth and their supporting structures. This is bizarre given the fact that very few dental treatments do not involve the occlusal surfaces of teeth."

"text": "FAMILY DYNAMICS AND THE THIRD CHILD AS OUTSIDERby Peter Morrell This essay on the behaviour of social groups is based upon considering the family situation and the group dynamics impinging upon the first three children. It arises partly from recently contemplating the meaning of the phrase ‘social identity’ and also from considering my own family and childhood. It also derives from observing the behaviour of my own children. Fundamentally, as a third child myself, it springs from considering some elements of my own personality, feelings and impulses and their possible origins. Relationships begin at home. It is in the family where we are first tested and where we receive the first rude elements of our own identity. Or at least of our social identity, upon which so much of our later, more mature ‘sense of self’ depends. The eldest or only child has only his/her parents to please and apart from that can please him or herself. Their identity therefore stems from only one, narrow, relatively guaranteed and usually uncomplicated relationship. As a result, a rather headstrong, self-centred, determined, assertive and uncompromising, possibly arrogant sense of self [personality] tends to characterise the eldest or only child."

The Reynolds number can be used to predict where this transition will take place. A vortex street around a cylinder. This can occur around cylinders and spheres, for any fluid, cylinder size and fluid speed, provided that the flow has a Reynolds number between roughly 40 and 1000. [ 1]Sir George Stokes introduced Reynolds numbers. Osborne Reynolds popularised the concept. The Reynolds number ( Re) is an important dimensionless quantity in fluid mechanics used to help predict flow patterns in different fluid flow situations. At low Reynolds numbers flow tends to be dominated by laminar (sheet-like) flow, but at high Reynolds numbers turbulence results from differences in the fluid's speed and direction, which may sometimes intersect or even move counter to the overall direction of the flow ( eddy currents ). These eddy currents begin to churn the flow, using up energy in the process, and for liquids increasing the chances of cavitation. Reynolds number has wide applications, ranging from liquid flow in a pipe to the passage of air over an aircraft wing."

Introduction The primary objective of this paper is to define the African traditional religious system as the basis of understanding Christian spiritual warfare within an African context. This background is essential to any application of Christian spirituality in Africa. For this reason, the paper serves only as an introduction to the application of Christian spirituality in Africa. There are basic African religious foundations that need to be presented and defined. These are essential for any Christian spiritual inquiry and application in Africa. II. African Traditional Religious System African traditional religious system has the following components: A. Foundational Religious Beliefs There are four foundational religious beliefs in the traditional religions: (1) the belief in impersonal (mystical) power (s); (2) the belief in spirit beings; (3) the belief in divinities/gods and (4) the belief in the Supreme Being. These foundational religious beliefs are essential to our theological interpretation and analysis of the traditional religions. Any meaningful and effective Christian approach to the traditional religions must begin from here.1. Belief in Impersonal (Mystical) Power (s)What is the influence and impact of this dominant religious belief in impersonal and mystical powers upon the whole of traditional African life?"

In what way do the air molecules act to create both dynamic and static pressure, respectivley? As far as i know, dynamic pressure results from the collisions of air rushing over an airfoil colliding with its surface, as the velocity (and momentum) increase these collisions are more forceful and thus the pressure increase. But if this is the case, then what type of collision during this process defines the static pressure? My main concern here is with static pressure, how does it occur? and why does it decrease with increases in flow speed?

To assess the biomechanical evidence in support of advocating the squat lifting technique as an administrative control to prevent low back pain. Background. Instruction with respect to lifting technique is commonly employed to prevent low back pain. The squat technique is the most widely advised lifting technique. Intervention studies failed to show health effects of this approach and consequently the rationale behind the advised lifting techniques has been questioned. Methods. Biomechanical studies comparing the stoop and squat technique were systematically reviewed.

"text": "Types of stretches This is an excerpt from Full-Body Flexibility, Second Edition by Jay Blahnik. Stretching Techniques and Terms First let’s review a few important techniques and terms. Even if you’re familiar with stretching, it’s a good idea to double-check your knowledge of this information. Some of these terms are commonly confused and misused. Static Stretching Static stretching means a stretch is held in a challenging but comfortable position for a period of time, usually somewhere between 10 to 30 seconds. Static stretching is the most common form of stretching found in general fitness and is considered safe and effective for improving overall flexibility. However, many experts consider static stretching much less beneficial than dynamic stretching for improving range of motion for functional movement, including sports and activities for daily living. Dynamic Stretching Dynamic stretching means a stretch is performed by moving through a challenging but comfortable range of motion repeatedly, usually 10 to 12 times. Although dynamic stretching requires more thoughtful coordination than static stretching (because of the movement involved), it is gaining favor among athletes, coaches, trainers, and physical therapists because of its apparent benefits in improving functional range of motion and mobility in sports and activities for daily living. Note that dynamic stretching should not be confused with old-fashioned ballistic stretching (remember the bouncing toe touches from PE classes?)."

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

Examples of exercise or activities that would use dynamic resistance are swimming, walking, cross country skiing, bicycling, weight training, and many other activities where movement and some resistance or load is involved. Blood circulation, strength, and endurance are improved by these continuous movements. Static Exercise (meaning it does not use motion or movement), also known as Isometric Exercise, exerts muscles through contractions at high intensities (tensing) without movement of the joints. Pushing your hands together in front of your chest, where each side is resisting the effort of the other; or if you push against a wall without changing the angle of the elbows, are just two examples. Dynamic Tension is a self resistance method of pitting muscle against muscle, and even more so, mind into muscle. The muscle of a given body part are tensed and you then try to move the body part against the tension as if a heavy weight was being lifted, pushed or pulled."

"text": "\"Critical Concepts\"\"Static\"\" and \"\"Dynamic\"\" Characterization Curiosity about the possibility and conditions of \"\"change in identity\"\" has been remarkably intense, in fiction and in psychology, during the last century. In talk about literature, this has led to the development of a crude but useful terminological distinction of two sorts of characterization: \"\"static\"\" and \"\"dynamic.\"\" A static character, in this vocabulary, is one that does not undergo important change in the course of the story, remaining essentially the same at the end as he or she was at the beginning. A dynamic character, in contrast, is one that does undergo an important change in the course of the story. More specifically, the changes that we are referring to as being \"\"undergone\"\" here are not changes in circumstances, but changes in some sense within the character in question -- changes in insight or understanding ( of circumstances, for instance), or changes in commitment, in values. The change (or lack of change) at stake in this distinction is a change \"\"in\"\" the character (nature) of the character (fictional figure). If a character inherits a million dollars from a rich aunt in the course of a story, this may or may not result in the sort of change in his personality or values or in his general outlook on life that would make him count as an instance of dynamic character in this special sense. ( The same goes if his impressive stock portfolio goes up in the smoke in a bear market.) He might remain the same cheerful, humble, easy-going, out-going fellow he was before this fortunate turn of events. Or he might remain the same bitter, cynical, resentful, suspicious, selfish person he had always been."

Examples of exercise or activities that would use dynamic resistance are swimming, walking, cross country skiing, bicycling, weight training, and many other activities where movement and some resistance or load is involved. Blood circulation, strength, and endurance are improved by these continuous movements. Static Exercise (meaning it does not use motion or movement), also known as Isometric Exercise, exerts muscles through contractions at high intensities (tensing) without movement of the joints. Pushing your hands together in front of your chest, where each side is resisting the effort of the other; or if you push against a wall without changing the angle of the elbows, are just two examples. Dynamic Tension is a self resistance method of pitting muscle against muscle, and even more so, mind into muscle. The muscle of a given body part are tensed and you then try to move the body part against the tension as if a heavy weight was being lifted, pushed or pulled."

"text": "Process Philosophy First published Mon Oct 15, 2012; substantive revision Thu Oct 26, 2017Process philosophy is based on the premise that being is dynamic and that the dynamic nature of being should be the primary focus of any comprehensive philosophical account of reality and our place within it. Even though we experience our world and ourselves as continuously changing, Western metaphysics has long been obsessed with describing reality as an assembly of static individuals whose dynamic features are either taken to be mere appearances or ontologically secondary and derivative. For process philosophers the adventure of philosophy begins with a set of problems that traditional metaphysics marginalizes or even sidesteps altogether: what is dynamicity or becoming —if it is the way we experience reality, how should we interpret this metaphysically? Are there several varieties of becoming—for instance, the uniform going on of activities versus the coming about of developments? Do all developments have the same way of occurring quite independently of what is coming about? How can we best classify into different kinds of occurrences what is going on and coming about? How can we understand the emergence of apparently novel conditions? While process philosophers insist that all within and about reality is continuously going on and coming about, they do not deny that there are temporally stable and reliably recurrent aspects of reality. But they take such aspects of persistence to be the regular behavior of dynamic organizations that arise due to the continuously ongoing interaction of processes. In order to articulate a process view of reality, special theoretical efforts are required, however, since the standard theoretical tools of Western metaphysics are geared to the static view of reality."

"text": "\"On Making Judgments and Being Judgmental Eight dynamics to consider in making constructive judgments. Posted May 17, 2013SHARETWEETEMAILMOREThe other day my father asked me the difference between making judgments and being a judgmental person. Given how I sometimes experience my father, it was a potentially loaded question. Although he has many wonderful qualities and we are close, it certainly is the case that I (and several others) occasionally experience him as being overly judgmental. In asking me the question, it was clear that he wanted to make the point that everyone makes judgments all the time. And, if that is the case, why are only certain people accused of being judgmental? Or, to put it slightly differently, is it fair to say that I am being judgmental if I accuse my father of being judgmental? Carl Rogers had much to say about problems associated being judgmental. The ideal of a nonjudgmental attitude was central to his client centered humanistic approach to psychotherapy. ( S ee Mayer's blogs on this )."

The Washington Times reports that baseball tickets have increased by as much as 344% for some major league teams since 1957, after adjusting for inflation. Today's prices prove that heading to a ball game isn't cost-effective family entertainment. The average cost for a family of four to attend a game, purchase food and drinks, park the car and come away with a baseball cap or two is $207.68 (Subtract $18 if you already have your favorite team's hat). The average price of one Major League Baseball ticket is $26.98, making the cost to see the game about 50% of the total cost. However, that cost may be significantly different at your stadium. For Boston Red Sox fans, the average ticket price to attend a home game was nearly twice the average price. At $53.98 for the average ticket, the family price comes to $336.99.

"text": "\"Steps1 Look for the assumptions. An article entitled 'how to deconstruct a text' likely assumes a text can be deconstructed, and also that that deconstruction can be described in a systematic way that applies to all texts similarly. Neither of these assumptions may be true. Look for what assumptions the writer makes that already bias the interpretation of the meanings the text discusses.2 Look for the tension between the spirit and the letter of the text. A text is rarely entirely successful in conveying the spirit of the writer, while the letter of the text is invariably ambiguous as to the intended meaning. The spirit behind the title 'how to deconstruct a text' is one of helpfulness: yet despite this optimism, deconstruction can be a difficult concept to grasp, while 'how tos' are also notorious for being inadequate, incomplete, misleading - a one-size fits all solution that rarely fits even a single context adequately. There is potentially a direct contradiction and tension here between what the author intends and what the text ends up saying. Such disconnects can lead to misinterpretations, to a literal translation of the meaning, which one assumes is automatically a false interpretation. Such separation between the spirit of the text and the actual text itself are inevitable in any text, but revealing them empowers the reader and avoids the pitfall of a text literally falling into decay, into an almost eternal misinterpretation. Likewise, a text is itself an attempt to 'author' reality, and there is a tension that inevitably comes with that.3 Consider the dynamic and static elements of meaning: - One way to approach the meanings of text is to realise that we construct meanings in our heads dynamically - they are subject to constant revision, extension, refutation, qualification or summary in our heads."

Whether you are shooting with an entry-level or professional camera, knowing how to use autofocus system effectively is essential to get sharp images. A badly-focused, blurry image can ruin a photograph and you cannot repair it in post-processing. Some professionals often end up converting their images to black and white, to hide their focusing problems. If you learn how to focus correctly, you do not have to resort to such measures and you can deliver much better results to your clients and family. Simply put, accurate focus translates to sharper images and that is something everyone is looking for in photographs today. I know some photographers will argue with me on this, saying that sometimes image blur yields a “creative” look, but it is one thing when you do it on purpose and another, when you consistently mess up just because you don’t know how to focus well with your camera. Once you learn how to properly focus with your camera, you can then decide whether you want to blur something on purpose. NIKON D700 @ 420mm, ISO 500, 1/2000, f/5.6In this article, I will teach you everything I know about focus modes on modern DSLRs. Since autofocus functionality depends on what camera type and model you are using, I obviously cannot go over all available AF modes, so I will only go through a couple of examples."

Cybernetics takes as its domain the design or discovery and application of principles of regulation and communication. Cybernetics treats not things but ways of behaving. It does not ask \"\"what is this thing?\"\" but \"\"what does it do?\"\" and \"\"what can it do?\"\" Because numerous systems in the living, social and technological world may be understood in this way, cybernetics cuts across many traditional disciplinary boundaries. The concepts which cyberneticians develop thus form a metadisciplinary language through which we may better understand and modify our world. Several traditions in cybernetics have existed side by side since its beginning. One is concerned with circular causality, manifest in technological developments--notably in the design of computers and automata--and finds its intellectual expression in theories of computation, regulation and control."

The study details the conversational moves that index their orientation to their novice and expert roles, how they co-create this dynamic, and how this dynamic evolves over the course of the year. The interlocutors’ explicit discussion of language learning frames the conversations as a type of engagement that mirrors Lave and Wenger's (1991) construct of Legitimate Peripheral Participation, in which the novice can participate in expert interaction but with limited responsibility and available support. Support is most often seen in the form of corrective repair, initiated by both the nonnative speaker and the native speaker. The analysis indicates the contexts in which correction occurs in these interactions and includes discussion of longitudinal changes in correction patterns over the course of the year abroad. Evidenced in the evolution of the interlocutors’ orientation to the novice/expert paradigm is movement away from the initial dynamic that appears to have a learning orientation, towards a recognition that the novice/expert dynamic is merely a resource available if needed. Highlights► The interlocutors explicitly frame the conversations as novice/expert. ► The framing mirrors the construct of Legitimate Peripheral Participation. ► Novice/expert paradigm is indexed by repair. ► Initial dynamic has learning orientation, with both form and meaning-based repairs ► Later dynamic focuses on a rich degree of meaning, not accurate form of utterance."

[ 1] [2] [3]The MBTI was constructed by Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers. It is based on the conceptual theory proposed by Carl Jung, [4] who had speculated that humans experience the world using four principal psychological functions – sensation, intuition, feeling, and thinking – and that one of these four functions is dominant for a person most of the time.

Although the Sinograph “chan” (禪) transliterates the Sanskrit dhyāna or “meditation”, and Chan zong can thus be translated as the “Meditation School”, Chan was not distinctive within Chinese Buddhism in its use of meditative techniques. What distinguished Chan were its novel use of language, its development of new narrative forms, and its valorization of the direct and embodied realization of Buddhist awakening. In contrast with the epistemic, hermeneutical and metaphysical concerns that shaped other schools of Chinese Buddhism, Chan’s defining concerns were experiential and relational—concerns that fit most comfortably, perhaps, within the horizons of philosophical anthropology. Appreciating the philosophical dimensions of Chan thus requires some familiarity with Buddhist thought and practice, and the dynamics of their infusion into Chinese culture.1. Introduction2.

Symptoms normally present themselves after one to three days, and are usually no longer present after a week. The frequency of urges to defecate, the large volume of liquid feces passed, and the presence of mucus, pus, and blood depends on the pathogen causing the disease.

"text": "\"Waterborne Diseases Factsheet Water related diseases are classified into four types relating to the path of transmission: Waterborne diseases, such as cholera and typhoid, are the diseases that are transmitted through drinking water. The interruption of transmission is achieved by proper treatment of drinking water. Water-washed (water-scarce) diseases, such as polio, are diseases where the interruption of the transmission is achieved through proper attention to effective sanitation, washing and personal hygiene. Regular washing of hands, especially after going to the toilet, is the most effective measure in preventing many infections, as is proper washing and hygiene during food preparation, together with proper sanitation, waste disposal and fly control. Water based diseases are diseases transmitted by contact with water, e.g. recreational swimming. Water vector diseases, such as malaria, are diseases that are transmitted by a vector, such as the mosquito, which needs water or moisture in order to breed. Prevention of transmission is through a vector control. Cholera – “Comma Bacterium\"\"Cholera is a diarrhoeal disease that is very sudden in onset. It is characterised by a massive loss of body fluids, through diarrhoea and vomiting, leading to severe dehydration, which can be fatal. The stool has the appearance of “rice water”."

Bacterial dysentery includes campylobacteriosis, shigellosis, salmonellosis, yersiniosis and Escherichia coli dysentery. Parasitic dysentery is caused by Entamoeba histolytica. These infections occur primarily in the large intestine (note some of these organisms can also infect the small intestine) and can invade the surrounding tissues. Invasion of the intestine can result in blood in the feces and cause an inflammatory response with significant numbers of fecal leukocytes. PSEUDOMEMBRANOUS COLITISClostridium difficile infection (CDI) is one of the most common hospital-acquired infections, and is a frequent cause of morbidity and mortality among elderly hospitalized patients. Pseudomembranous colitis usually occurs after long-term antibiotic treatment and is due to overgrowth of Clostridium difficile in the colon and production of toxin by this bacterium. Etiology C difficile is an anaerobic gram-positive spore-forming rod that produces toxin A and toxin B. Manifestations Symptoms of pseudomembranous colitis vary from an asymptomatic carrier state to fulminant colitis. Watery diarrhea is the most common symptom. Other symptoms include crampy bilateral lower quadrant pain that decreases after bowel movements, low-grade fever, and mild peripheral blood leukocytosis."

Thebacteria is named in honor of Shiga, a Japanese researcher, who discovered the organism in 1897. The major symptoms are diarrhea, abdominal cramps, fever, and severe fluidloss ( dehydration ). Four different groups of Shigella can affect humans; of these, S. dysenteriaegenerally produces the most severe attacks, and S. sonnei the mildest. Description Shigellosis is a well-known cause of traveler's diarrhea and illness throughout the world. Shigellaare extremely infectious bacteria, and ingestion of just 10 organisms is enough to cause severediarrhea and dehydration. Shigella accounts for 10-20% of all cases of diarrhea worldwide, and in any given year infects over 140 million persons and kills 600,000, mostly children and the elderly. The most serious form of the disease is called dysentery, which is characterized by severewatery (and often blood- and mucous-streaked) diarrhea, abdominal cramping, rectal pain, andfever.

Characteristic features include abdominalpain and cramps, straining at stool (tenesmus), and frequent passage of watery diarrhea or stools containing blood and mucus. The English word dysentery comes from two Greek wordsmeaning \"\"ill\"\" or \"\"bad\"\" and \"\"intestine. \"\" It should be noted that some doctors use the word \"\"dysentery\"\" to refer only to the first two majortypes of dysentery discussed below, while others use the term in a broader sense. For example,some doctors speak of schistosomiasis, a disease caused by a parasitic worm, as bilharzialdysentery, while others refer to acute diarrhea caused by viruses as viral dysentery. Description Dysentery is a common but potentially serious disorder of the digestive tract that occursthroughout the world. It can be caused by a number of infectious agents ranging from viruses andbacteria to protozoa and parasitic worms; it may also result from chemical irritation of theintestines. Dysentery is one of the oldest known gastrointestinal disorders, having beendescribed as early as the Peloponnesian War in the fifth century B. C. Epidemics of dysenterywere frequent occurrences aboard sailing vessels as well as in army camps, walled cities, andother places in the ancient world where large groups of human beings lived together in closequarters with poor sanitation. As late as the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, sailors andsoldiers were more likely to die from the \"\"bloody flux\"\" than from injuries received in battle."

Dysentery is defined as diarrhea in which there is blood, pus, and mucous, usually accompanied by abdominal pain. There are two main types of dysentery. The first type, amoebic dysentery or intestinal amoebiasis, is caused by a single-celled, microscopic parasite living in the large bowel. The second type, bacillary dysentery, is caused by invasive bacteria. Both kinds of dysentery occur mostly in hot countries. Poor hygiene and sanitation increase the risk of dysentery by spreading the parasite or bacteria that cause it through food or water contaminated from infected human feces.

Yes, I am sure most of you have heard of the unicellular organism amoeba, when you were still in school. Well, I know that back then, the term protozoa was used instead of protists to refer to the likes of amoeba and paramecium, but the fact is that, protozoans are protists that are closer to animals than plants owing to such typical animal-like characteristics as mobility and locomotion. Now, going back to the first question, protists are commonly defined as eukaryotic microorganisms, that can be both unicellular or multicellular.

The topic of rectal bleeding or hematochezia as it is medically known, is something that can make most of us squeamish, and while most causes are not serious or life threatening, any rectal bleeding that you experience is deserving of attention and investigation as to the causal factors. We look at why: Rectal bleeding can vary from scant to severe; can manifest itself in blackish to tarry stools, maroon stools or bright red blood along with a bowel movement that may be as little as a few drops on the toilet tissue to may be enough to turn the water in the toilet bowl fully red. Rectal bleeding among women can be due to a number of different reasons: The most common factors that cause rectal bleeding are anal fissures or hemorrhoids and similar ano-rectal disorders. Infection in a section of the large intestine, such as dysentery can also cause rectal bleeding in which case the bleeding could be darker red or maroon, and may be part of the actual stool. If the blood is darker in color, brown or black and/or resembling tar, it could be caused by a disorder higher up in the gastrointestinal tract or even the stomach. This could be caused by the swallowing of a foreign object that has caused injury to the stomach lining or due to bleeding ulcers, or Mallory-Weiss tears, which are cuts or ruptures of the vessels in the lining of the food pipe or stomach. These are usually caused by prolonged or forceful vomiting Polyps are another reason why rectal bleeding could occur. Polyps are lumps of tissue that bulge outward from the colon’s lining."

There are two major types: bacillary dysentery and amebic dysentery, caused respectively by bacteria and by amoebas.dysentery Inflamed mucosal surface of the rectum interior viewed with a sigmoidoscope in a patient with bacillary dysentery. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (Image Number: 6660)Bacillary dysentery, or shigellosis, is caused by bacilli of the genus Shigella. Symptomatically, the disease ranges from a mild attack to a severe course that commences suddenly and ends in death caused by dehydration and poisoning by bacterial toxins. After an incubation period of one to six days, the disease has an abrupt onset with fever and the frequent production of watery stools that may contain blood. Vomiting may also occur, and dehydration soon becomes obvious owing to the copious loss of bodily fluids. In advanced stages of the disease, chronic ulceration of the large intestine causes the production of bloody stools. The most severe bacillary infections are caused by Shigella dysenteriae type 1 (formerly Shigella shigae ), which is found chiefly in tropical and subtropical regions. S. flexneri, S. sonnei, and S. boydii are other Shigella bacilli that cause dysentery."

"text": "In definition they are opposites. In practice though, some apparent utopian novels turn out to be dystopian instead. A dystopian novel is a setting that has unraveled, or is in the process of falling apart. These are usually post-war futures, post-famine or disease worlds which have been blown back to primitive conditions. These of course provide plenty of conflict. A utopian novel is a novel set in a time or place of idealism. These near-perfect societies are not generally conducive to conflict, and conflict is necessary to a good story. So most utopian novels fall into two categories: The utopia is about to be threatened. The utopia turns out to have a dark underbelly. An example of the latter type of utopian novel is Lois Lowry's The Giver."

"text": "Dystopia Definition of Dystopia Dystopia is a world in which everything is imperfect, and everything goes terribly wrong. Dystopian literature shows us a nightmarish image about what might happen to the world in the near future. Usually the main themes of dystopian works are rebellion, oppression, revolutions, wars, overpopulation, and disasters. On the other hand, utopia is a perfect world – exactly opposite of dystopia. Characteristics of Dystopia Generally, there is no government, or if there is, it is an oppressive and controlling government. Either there is a huge income gap between the poor and the rich, or everyone faces extreme poverty. Propaganda put forth by the government or ruling class takes control of human minds. Examples of Dystopia in Literature Example #1: The Hunger Games (By Suzanne Collins)Suzanne Collins depicts a dystopic world, Panem, in a futuristic society in her series, The Hunger Games. Consisting of a central government referred to as “Capitol,” and thirteen remote districts, Panem displays a model of dystopian society due to harsh separation and discrimination between the unkind Capitol and the poor, enslaved outlying districts. We notice throughout the novel that Panem’s Capitol makes use of intimidation and violence to control its people living in the Districts."

Dystopia challenges utopia's assumption of human perfectibility and perfect society. In dystopian fiction we can rarely find hope. Although creators of dystopian fictions usually depict world set in near future, they write about things they feared of in the existing world of reality, exploring the worst possible scenario of the future of our own world, they show their own concern about some social trends, criticize them and also write about their wish to prevent it. The readers are familiar with dystopian fiction, for them it becomes a more involving and effective experience, because they identify the patterns and trends of their own societies and also makes them to think about how are dangerous certain things that will happen if current trends continue. The main theme of dystopian literature is oppression and rebellion, and the rebels are almost always weaker than the oppressors. Paranoia is very evident among citizens in dystopian societies, because they live in fear and they are being very often monitored, betrayed or manipulated. This term was coined by John Stuart Mill, English philosopher and economist, in 1868. Industrial revolution, World War I, the Russian Revolution, growing awareness of environmental damage, rapid progress of technology, popularization of capitalistic trends as well as fear that machine could take power on the men were the reasons for appearance of creation of dystopian literature. Author of dystopian fiction are often inspired by political and cultural problems."

R7375 Di 2011 [2]Followed by Insurgent Divergent is the debut novel of American novelist Veronica Roth, published by Harper Collins Children's Books in 2011. The novel is the first of the Divergent trilogy, a series of young adult dystopian novels set in the Divergent Universe. [ 1] The novel Divergent features a post-apocalyptic version of Chicago and follows Beatrice \"\"Tris\"\" Prior as she explores her identity within a society that defines its citizens by their social and personality-related affiliation with five factions, which removes the threat of anyone exercising independent will and re-threatening the population's safety. Underlying the action and dystopian focused main plot is a romantic subplot between Tris and one of her instructors in the Dauntless faction, nicknamed Four. The novel has been compared to other young adult books such as The Hunger Games and The Maze Runner because of its similar themes and target audience. In particular, the novel explores the themes common to young adult fiction, such as adult authority and the transition from childhood to maturity, as well as such broader motifs as the place of violence and social structures within a post-apocalyptic society. Its major plot device, the division of society into personality types, is one used in other science fiction works. Beyond its literary context, Roth's open declaration of her religion as a Christian has brought commentary from Christian communities both endorsing and challenging the novel. Roth wrote Divergent while working on a Creative Writing degree at Northwestern University, and it was quickly purchased for publication alongside the subsequent books in the trilogy (completed in October 2013).

"text": "Books | Movies & TV“Divergent” Author Veronica Roth Talks About The Inspiration For Her Dystopian Worldby Dana Krook To go along with the film release, we thought we’d kick off DIVERGENT WEEK with a throwback to the original interview we did with author Veronica Roth in 2011, right before the first novel hit bookshelves. In case you’re not (yet) a super-fan, here’s the breakdown: Divergent is the first book about a dystopian world where everyone is divided into five factions, based on their personalities: Abnegation (selfless), Candor (honest), Amity (peaceful), Erudite (intelligent) and Dauntless (brave). Although Beatrice was born into Abnegation, all citizens, once they reach 16, take a test to determine the best place for them and then they must decide—and so she is faced with a choice. Most stick with the life they have always known, but some feel drawn to a different faction from their parents and are then forced to leave behind their past life—friends, family, moral codes—to join another. When formerly-quiet Beatrice decides to leave Abnegation for Dauntless and renames herself Tris, everyone is shocked. In a faction where blind courage, brute strength and total fearlessness are valued above all else, can the girl who was raised to be completely selfless even survive, let alone reinvent herself? Once you pick up this novel, you won’t be able to put it down—I promise!Immediately after reading the first few pages of Divergent, I knew it was going to be huge. So, it was beyond a pleasure to sit down with Veronica Roth to chat about her characters, her creation and her career. What inspired you to write the world of Divergent? There are so many things that inspired it."

This is a story of future society that practices censorship, where all books are restricted, the government attempts to control what people read and think, and individuals are anti-social and hedonistic. But, this book is not only about danger of censorship, it is also about the effects of television and mass media on the reading of literature and also gives good arguments in favor of the book as the most important element of intellectual freedom. Unlike other famous dystopian novels, this book holds out some hope. The book was written after World War II, and criticizes intellectually oppressive political climate of that period. This book also reveals a very real concern that America leaning in direction to become an oppressive, authoritarian society. The novel has been adapted to film in 1966. The themes attributed to the novel are: censorship in 1950s, the book burning in Nazi Germany (1933), explosion of a nuclear weapon, individual vs. society, importance of literature, propaganda, paradoxes, hope, reformation of society, life and death etc. The story takes place in an unspecified future in America, where the reading of books is abandoned.

But just what is a dystopian novel and how long has it been around? And the bigger question: Why is this type of novel so appealing to teens? What Is a Dystopia? A dystopia is a society that is broken down, unpleasant, or in an oppressed or terrorized state. Unlike a utopia, a perfect world, dystopias are grim, dark, and hopeless. They reveal society’s greatest fears. Totalitarian governments rule and the needs and wants of individuals become subordinate to the state. In most dystopian novels, a tyrannical government is trying to suppress and control its citizens by taking away their individuality as in the classics 1984 and Brave New World ."

Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury's dystopian soft science fiction novel, was published in 1953. It first appeared as the novella, The Fireman, in the February 1951 issue of Galaxy Science Fiction. It is a critique of what Bradbury saw as an increasingly dysfunctional American society, written in the early years of the Cold War. The novel presents a future in which all books are restricted, individuals are anti-social and hedonistic, and critical thought is suppressed. The central character, Guy Montag, is employed as a \"\"fireman\"\" (which, in this future, means \"\"book burner\"\"). The number \"\"451\"\" refers to the temperature (in Fahrenheit) at which a book or paper spontaneously combusts."

Although this is not the first dystopian novel written it is the first novel to bring this genre to the mainstream. Dystopian literature appeared at a time in human history that was perfectly suited for it, because at the same time Aldous Huxley published “Brave New World” the North American and European countries were going through a revolution of sorts. There were new ideas and inventions and tools starting to form that would lead to a better world. But there was always this thought lingering in the mist of our minds that said “What if these ideas, inventions and tools, What if this industrialization isn't what we thought it was. What if with all of this leads to a world that is less ideal maybe even disastrous for humans to live in?” Now because of this and because of the popularity of “Brave New World” there was an influx of new authors wanting to write dystopian literature. And there was a ton of new ideas that they could write about because of how much the world was changing at the time. Now these new authors that came into dystopian literature brought with them a whole bunch of brand new ideas. And those new ideas became sub-genres of dystopian literature, below are all the sub-genres that dystopian literature helped to create."

Among the literary traditions that Orwell uses is the concept of utopia, which he distorts effectively for his own purposes. Utopia, or Nowhere Land, is an ideal place or society in which human beings realize a perfect existence, a place without suffering or human malady. Orwell did not originate this genre. In fact, the word utopia is taken from Sir Thomas More's Utopia, written in 1516. The word is now used to describe any place considered to be perfect. In 1984, Orwell creates a technologically advanced world in which fear is used as a tool for manipulating and controlling individuals who do not conform to the prevailing political orthodoxy. In his attempt to educate the reader about the consequences of certain political philosophies and the defects of human nature, Orwell manipulates and usurps the utopian tradition and creates a dystopia, a fictional setting in which life is extremely bad from deprivation, oppression, or terror. Orwell's dystopia is a place where humans have no control over their own lives, where nearly every positive feeling is squelched, and where people live in misery, fear, and repression. The dystopian tradition in literature is a relatively modern one and is usually a criticism of the time in which the author lives."

Utopian fiction portrays a setting that agrees with the author's ethos, having various attributes of another reality intended to appeal to readers. Dystopian (or dystopic) fiction (sometimes combined with, but distinct from apocalyptic literature) is the opposite: the portrayal of a setting that completely disagrees with the author's ethos. [ 1] Many novels combine both, often as a metaphor for the different directions humanity can take, depending on its choices, ending up with one of two possible futures. Both utopias and dystopias are commonly found in science fiction and other speculative fiction genres, and arguably are by definition a type of speculative fiction. More than 400 utopian works were published prior to the year 1900 in the English language alone, with more than a thousand others during the twentieth century.

Add to 1,551 views Like this lesson Share The lesson will summarize ''Gathering Blue'' by Lois Lowry and give details about the setting of the novel in a dystopian future where the main character is in danger because of her talent and secrets from her past. Rough Circumstances When a young girl living in a dystopian society loses both of her parents, how is she supposed to fend for herself? In a society that expels people with physical deformities, how can she survive attached to the twisted leg she was born with? This is the life of Kira, the protagonist of Lois Lowry's Gathering Blue, who must learn how to make a living, how to protect herself, and who to trust in a society that seems out to get her. Setting: Dystopian Future Not too Distant Future The time setting of the novel is unclear, but seems to be some time in the not-too-distant future. Despite this, the village that Kira lives in does not have any technology; the commoners have jobs like sewing, wood working, and hunting - jobs that provide needed supplies to the villagers. The novel is set in a dystopian society, meaning most things in the society are bad. Like most dystopian societies, the government is totalitarian, having complete control over all its citizens. The Government Owns your Talent As we discover later in the book, the government does not allow anything out of the ordinary."

"text": "Definition of Epigraph In literature, an epigraph is a short quotation that is set at the beginning of a text or section of a text to suggest the theme of what’s to come. The epigraph can be a quote from a famous person, an excerpt or full text of a poem, phrase, lyric, or definition. Epigraphs can be a sort of preface or can set the mood or tone of the following work. Epigraphs can also invite the reader to make a comparison between what the epigraph says and what the rest of the text is about. Some authors use epigraphs to tie their own literature to the greater body of literature in the world. The word epigraph comes from the Greek word epigraphein, which means “to write on.” The contemporary definition of epigraph was introduced into English in the mid-19th century, when it came to mean a motto or pithy sentence that prefaces a book or chapter of a book. Common Examples of Epigraph While there is a literary meaning of epigraph, the word epigraph can also refer to inscriptions on buildings, statues, and coins. Non-literary epigraphs work to figuratively label and give some sense of the symbolic meaning of these buildings, statues, and coins. Here are some examples of epigraphs that are used in everyday life that are not literary epigraphs: Statue of Liberty: Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. ("

There are many types of E. coli, and most of them are harmless. But some can cause bloody diarrhea. Some strains of E. coli bacteria may also cause severe anemia or kidney failure, which can lead to death. Other strains of E. coli can cause urinary tract infections or other infections. What causes an E. coli intestinal infection? You get an E. coli infection by coming into contact with the feces, or stool, of humans or animals. This can happen when you drink water or eat food that has been contaminated by feces. E. coli in food E. coli can get into meat during processing."

The primary cause of this problem is our overuse of antibiotics. Doctors on the front lines want to help their patients get better and patients wanting to get better expect antibiotics to help.

An outbreak of E. coli in Oregon and Washington state has been potentially linked to Chipotle, and the company has closed all of its restaurants in the two states. This isn’t the first time Chipotle has been hit with a foodborne outbreak, nor is it the first time that a major food company has had its food contaminated. Here’s what you should know about the most recent case. Who is sick? As of Friday there were three people in the Portland area who had been sickened from E. coli, and 19 people in Western Washington, the Associated Press reports. More than 15 of these people had eaten at a Chipotle in the last few weeks, and eight of the sick people had to be hospitalized. In an interview with the AP, Marisa D’Angeli, a medical epidemiologist with the Washington State Department of Health, said more cases are expected as people with symptoms hear about the outbreak and go to their doctor.

Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (MRSP) and Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus intermedius (MRSI) are probably best thought of as the “animal equivalents” of MRSA – there is little published information on these at present, but it is reasonable to assume that the same basic hygiene precautions as for MRSA will adequately control MRSP and MRSI. Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-E. coli) have not been reported in dogs and cats but are a difficult multiple-antibiotic resistant bacteria type recently identified in cattle, sheep and horses.

Web MD turned to experts and the CDC to shed light on where E. coli lurks and how to protect yourself. What is E. coli exactly, and how common is it? It's short for Escherichia coli, and it's bacteria found in the environment, foods, and both human and animal intestines. There are numerous strains and most are harmless. Those that can make you sick can cause sometimes-bloody diarrhea, urinary tract infections, respiratory illness and pneumonia, and a type of kidney failure, the CDC says. E. coli contamination is often linked in our minds with undercooked burgers, but what other foods can it happen in?

Foodborne illnesses are infections or irritations of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract caused by food or beverages that contain harmful bacteria, parasites, viruses, or chemicals. The GI tract is a series of hollow organs joined in a long, twisting tube from the mouth to the anus. Common symptoms of foodborne illnesses include vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, and chills. Most foodborne illnesses are acute, meaning they happen suddenly and last a short time, and most people recover on their own without treatment. Rarely, foodborne illnesses may lead to more serious complications. Each year, an estimated 48 million people in the United States experience a foodborne illness. Foodborne illnesses cause about 3,000 deaths in the United States annually. 1What causes foodborne illnesses? The majority of foodborne illnesses are caused by harmful bacteria and viruses."

"text": "\"Questions and answers on ESBL and Amp C-producing antimicrobial resistant bacteria Updated FAQ at the Bf R of 19 January 2015Bacteria can be resistant to certain antibiotics. When this happens with pathogenic bacteria, these antibiotics remain ineffective if they are used to treat an illness caused by the bacteria. Important antimicrobials towards which increasing resistance has been observed include the group of aminopenicillins and cephalosporins. One of the causes of this antimicrobial resistance are enzymes designated as\"\"extended-spectrum beta-lactamases\"\" (ESBL) and \"\"amp C beta-lactamases\"\" (Amp C). Bacteria require a certain \"\"resistance gene\"\" in order to produce these enzymes. This genetic property can be passed on from one bacteria generation to the next through cell division during propagation. During the lifetime of a bacterium, however, it can also be passed on from one bacteria cell to another on transmissible gene sections such as plasmids. These two cells can also belong to different bacteria types. The use of antibiotics in humans and animals promotes the spread of ESBL and/or Amp C-producing bacteria because antimicrobial resistance means an advantage in the competition with other bacteria (types). In recent years, there have been more and more reports about the expansive spread of ESBL and/or Amp C-producing bacteria among animals and in foods."

There's no indication that these infections are linked to the E. coli outbreak (64 cases) related to Taco Bell restaurants in the Northeast, but the Centers for Disease control haven't ruled a connection out, either.

Generally, it is recommended to bring bacteria-laden water to a rolling boil for at least 5 minutes to kill off all bacteria. Freezing them is generally not a good way to kill them, just stop them from growing. There are bacteria called thermophiles which can withstand very high temperatures for a very long period of time. But most will be killed in a nice pot of boiling water.

Bacteria are the most common culprits even though your body has a natural defense system to throw these bacteria out of your body when they enter your urinary tract. But, sometimes, your natural defense fails, giving bacteria the chance to cause an infection in the urethra (urethritis), bladder (cystitis), or kidneys (pyelonephritis). To confirm your symptoms are due to a urinary tract infection, your doctor will ask for a urine test in which they will look for E. coli. E. Coli in Urine Culture – What Does It Mean? When your lab assistant tells you that they have found E. coli in urine, it usually means you have a urinary tract infection and your doctor may ask for other tests to confirm what type of infection it is. Under normal circumstances, your urine in the bladder contains no bacteria or other organisms, but that's not the case when bacteria enter your urine through the urethra. Escherichia coli or E. Coli is among the most common causative agents of UTIs. Your doctor will confirm the presence of these bacteria in your urine through a urine culture test, but they will also look for the presence of any red blood cells, while blood cells, or bacteria. Your lab assistant may ask you to wipe clean your genital area before the test to avoid any contamination."

Coli: Common Strains and Pathogenic Varieties of E. Coli Bacteria Lesson Transcript Instructor: Angela Hartsock Angela has taught college Microbiology and has a doctoral degree in Microbiology. Escherichia coli is a normal inhabitant of your gastrointestinal tract. In this lesson we will examine the conditions required for optimal growth of E. coli both in your colon and in culture. Extreme Bacteria The bacterial world is everywhere. It is amazing the places that scientists have been able to find bacteria growing and surviving - deep ocean vents, boiling hot springs, water with extremely high salt concentrations, and even in ice! These extreme environments are now known to be bustling bacterial ecosystems and illustrate how versatile and adventurous bacteria can be. But don't pack your bags, because today we will not be journeying into any of those crazy environments to learn about those cool bugs. Instead, just look down at your gut. That is the destination of our journey today. Escherichia Coli Escherichia coli, or E. coli for short, is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria that is a normal inhabitant of the lower gastrointestinal tract of warm-blooded animals."

"text": "What is E. coli? Escherichia coli (commonly abbreviated as E. coli) are a large and diverse group of Gram-negative, bacilli bacteria that normally live in the intestines of people and animals. Most E. coli are harmless and actually are an important part of a healthy human intestinal tract. However, some E. coli are pathogenic, meaning they can cause illness, either diarrhea or illness outside of the intestinal tract. Pathogenic E. coli strains are categorized into pathotypes. Six pathotypes are associated with diarrhea and collectively are referred to as diarrheagenic E. coli. The types of E. coli that can cause diarrhea can be transmitted through contaminated water or food, or through contact with animals or persons. How is E. coli O157: H7 spread? The organism can live in the intestines of healthy cattle. Meat can become contaminated during slaughter, and organisms can be thoroughly mixed into beef when it is ground."

Foodborne illnesses are infections or irritations of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract caused by food or beverages that contain harmful bacteria, parasites, viruses, or chemicals. The GI tract is a series of hollow organs joined in a long, twisting tube from the mouth to the anus. Common symptoms of foodborne illnesses include vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, and chills. Most foodborne illnesses are acute, meaning they happen suddenly and last a short time, and most people recover on their own without treatment. Rarely, foodborne illnesses may lead to more serious complications. Each year, an estimated 48 million people in the United States experience a foodborne illness. Foodborne illnesses cause about 3,000 deaths in the United States annually. 1What causes foodborne illnesses? The majority of foodborne illnesses are caused by harmful bacteria and viruses."

One specific strain can cause serious digestive system upset, however, leading to diarrhea and nausea, which can leave an infected person weak and dehydrated. It may also produce a toxin that damages the kidneys and weakens the small intestine walls in children. Part of the reason that this bacteria is so dangerous is because there is no effective cure for an infection. In 2006, consumers in the United States experienced a major health scare when bags of raw spinach leaves processed in California were found to contain dangerous levels of E. coli. Hundreds of people were sickened, and several deaths were reported. The source of the contamination was eventually traced to specific produce farms located in one county in California. While sales of bagged spinach eventually resumed, the public also became aware of some of the dangers of bacterial contamination and exposure. It is important to realize that not all E. coli bacteria are harmful to humans. Most serve as a digestive aid; they are part of the helpful gut flora responsible for breaking down certain foods into more digestible sugars or proteins."

To make a circular, double stranded DNA replicate in E. coli, the origin of replication is the only thing you need. If that’s all you have, you’d call the thing a “cryptic” plasmid—which just means it replicates in the cell but has no selectable marker. However, there are many different origin types, and different ones are used for different things. Rather than referring specifically to the origin, most people will refer to “types of plasmid”. Usually, what they are talking about is just what origin \"\"part\"\" is present in the plasmid, but some \"\"types of plasmid\"\" are a combination of parts needed for replication. I'll go through the most common ones here. Compatibility Groups A really important concept in thinking about plasmids is compatibility groups. In a nutshell, if you put two different plasmids into the same cell with the same origin of replication, they will compete for replication resources to their detriment. Sometimes this will result in one \"\"winning out\"\" over the other, other times they will stably replicate alongside one another."

"text": "\"The phrase \"\"e pluribus unum\"\" is Latin, and it translates literally as \"\"out of many, one.\"\" Many people are familiar with this phrase from the context of the Great Seal of the United States, which appears on some American currency and government documents. Several organizations have also adopted the phrase as their mottos, both in the United States and abroad. This phrase has murky origins that are difficult to pin down. A similar phrase appears in the works of Virgil, specifically in a recipe for salad, or at least so claims Bill Bryson in Made in America, a survey of American English. The term was also used by Gentlemen's Magazine, a popular publication among the upper classes in the 18th century. Every year, the publication would print an issue featuring the best work from the previous year, and undoubtedly the upper class Americans in the government of the nascent nation would have been familiar with the magazine and this annual \"\"best of\"\" issue. Ad Whatever the origins, \"\"e pluribus unum\"\" was adopted by Congress in 1782 as an official motto, along with \"\"annuit coeptis\"\" (\"\"he has approved our undertakings\"\") and \"\"novus ordo seclorum\"\" (\"\"a new order for the ages\"\"). Almost immediately, the phrase was being integrated into design proposals for the Great Seal of the United States, and by 1795, it was also appearing on American currency. Incidentally, American currency was not widely standardized until the middle of the 19th century; prior to this period, banks freely printed their own currency, and shopkeepers also had to accept foreign currency, keeping a formidable table of exchange rates in their heads."

"text": "Number 51 (2008) Globalization, National Identity, Teaching Tools02 American National Identity in a Globalized World as a Topic in the Advanced EFL-Classroomby Peter Freese In order to make an issue as complex and controversial as that of ‘national identity’ teachable in the advanced EFL-classroom, it has to be reduced to exemplary aspects and illustrated with concrete examples. Therefore, I will suggest an appropriate “Course Opener,” briefly survey the historical unfolding of the American identity concept in order to provide teachers with the necessary background knowledge, and then suggest two teaching units, the first of which traces some major developments by means of “classic” texts, whereas the second deals with the crucial issue of whether a shared language is a prerequisite for a shared identity. Opening the Course Buoy in Baltimore Harbor; photograph by Peter Freese In Baltimore Harbor a very unusual buoy which sports the American flag marks the position of the ship from which, in September 1814, the American poet-lawyer Francis Scott Key observed how a British fleet bombarded Fort Mc Henry and how its brave defenders held firm and thus saved the city. It was on this ship that, inspired by his countrymen’s bravery, he wrote his poem “The Star-Spangled Banner,” which was then sung to the tune of “To Anacreon in Heaven,” a popular song about the pleasures of wine and women composed in 1780 by the British composer John Stafford Smith. As late as 1931, Congress made Key’s text and Smith’s melody the national anthem of the United States. Meanwhile, however, Spanish-speaking U. S. radio stations play this anthem in a version in which Oh, say can you see By the dawn’s early light What so proudly we hailed At the twilight’s last gleamingis rendered as Amanece: ¿lo véis a la luz de la aurora Lo que tanto aclamamos la noche al caer? Sus estrellas, sus franjas flotaban ayer, En el fiero combate en señal de victoria. 1Although he wanted the votes of the growing Hispanic segment, President Bush felt forced to declare that the English language is an important part of American identity and that immigrants should learn enough English to sing the anthem in its original version, 2 whereas defenders of the Spanish version pointed out that as early as 1919 the U. S. Bureau of Education commissioned a Spanish version of Key’s text, but forgot to mention that by then the song was not yet the official national anthem. The debate about the national anthem can serve as a motivating entry into the conundrum of ‘national identity,’ and the fact that in Germany, Hans-Christian Stroebele of the Green Party commented that he could well imagine a Turkish version of the Deutschlandlied provides the American controversy with additional transfer value for German learners. 3The History of American Identity The American debate triggered by the Spanish version of the national anthem points to a problem which, half a century ago, the famous psychologist Erik H. Erikson, who fled from Nazi Germany to the U. S., defined by observing that America “attempts to make a super-identity out of all the identities imported by its constituent immigrants.”"

His purpose in the speech was to rally his fellow Democrats behind Kerry and Edwards to support their campaign for president and vice-president: \"\"rise up in November, and John Kerry will be sworn in as president. And John Edwards will be sworn in as vice president. \"\" His main claim was that Americans should stand united. He reiterates this idea in several ways, first pointing out that \"\"There are patriots who opposed the war in Iraq, and there are patriots who supported the war in Iraq\"\"--meaning we should not be having petty squabbles about whether someone is a \"\"patriot\"\" based on this single point, as all had reasons for voting as they did and the end result of that vote does not mean they didn't have the country's best interests at heart. He also says \"\"there's not a liberal America and a conservative America; there's the United States of America.\"\" He believes that while our ideas of how to remain strong, fight terrorism, and help the needy differ, we all want what's best for America. He includes (and emphasizes) the idea that it is our fundamental belief that \"\"I am my brother's keeper, I am my sisters' keeper -- that makes this country work.\"\" Thus, he suggests that it is our responsibility to take care of those we don't know, but from this idea he quickly swings back to this: \"\"It's what allows us to pursue our individual dreams, yet still come together as a single American family: 'E pluribus unum,' out of many, one.\"\" That is, we are a diverse society, but we all want what's best for the country.list Cite link Link \""

Truth Or Fiction.com has received numerous requests to verify whether the representations in the email are accurate. The Truth: Although symbols are open to many interpretations, we do have some historical insight into the design and meaning of some of the images on the one dollar bill. Using the text from the most commonly circulated email on this subject, let’s go through some of the lines that seem to be of most interest. All explanations and interpretations are taken from the United States Treasury Department and the United States Department of State, which is the official keeper of the United States Seal.e Rumor: The one dollar bill you’re looking at first came off the presses in 1957 in its present design. The Truth: This is true. According to the U. S. Treasury Department, that is when the motto, “In God We Trust” started being used on paper money. It was in use on coins long before that.e Rumor: If you look on the front of the bill, you will see the United States Treasury Seal. On the top you will see the scales for the balance-a balanced budget. The Truth: That may be somebody’s interpretation of the scales, but the Treasury Department has little to do with whether the budget is balanced."

"text": "\"Annuit Coeptis - Novus Ordo Seclorum - E Pluribus Unum No amount of dissembling by Freemasons can hide the fact that the Great Seal of America, as printed on the dollar bill, is a Masonic emblem: the eye in the pyramid, the eagle and the inscriptions are replete with secret Masonic symbolism. In this context it is self-evident that the three mottos on the Seal will repay a close cabalistic analysis. What occult secrets of Freemasonry do they conceal? Annuit Coeptis The phrase 'Annuit Coeptis' is derived from Virgil and is usually translated as 'He favours our undertakings'. ' He' is presumed to be the monotheistic deity of Christianity. This interpretation is encouraged by the earlier motto, 'Deo Favente Perennis', meaning, 'God Favours us through the Ages'. However some believe there is also a reference to 'Nuit' or 'Nut' the sky goddess of ancient Egypt. This is supported by the way 'Annuit Coeptis' arches over the top of the pyramid (a phallic symbol) - a direct analogy to the Egyptian symbolism of Seb (or Geb) and Nut. Nut is usually shown as a tall woman whose body is bent in a great semi-circle to represent the sky; her consort Seb is lying flat like the earth with erect phallus. The raising up of Nut from the embrace of Seb represented the first act of creation."

They believed what had worked in America would work internationally. United States automotive skyrocketed overseas and now China, with it's 1.6 billion people, has become the world's largest passenger car market in the world. In 2010, GM sold 2.35 million cars in China. This set a groundbreaking milestone for car dealers everywhere, due to GM being the first American automaker to sell more cars overseas then in the domestic market. In the most recent recession, Buick sales in the States declined so quickly that GM considered eliminating the brand altogether. Fortunately, the sales were increasing just as rapidly in China, saving the brand. Buick from the Beginning As compared to the domesticated company within the United States, Buick's lineup in China has presented itself as a better international product.

One dollar bill. Translating these phrases is an exercise in good Latin grammar, and lets everyone else learn what they mean. The three Latin phrases found on the U. S. one dollar bill are often translated and mistranslated by those uninitiated in the Latin language. These phrases, which capture the spirit and new beginning posited by the American Revolution, embody the new world spread out before the young country when newly liberated from the monarchic rule of England. Translating Latin phrases found in English is a good exercise for the Latin student to break free of the typical text translations found in Latin programs of study. By examining such phrases, the Latin student can apply common and not so common grammatical constructions that often have subtle but important distinctions. Translate E Pluribus Unum E Pluribus Unum is a phrase often mistranslated as “many from one.\"\" However,the initiated Latin student knows that subjects in a Latin sentence must be in the nominative case. The only word in this phrase in the nominative case is “unum\"\", hence the discovery of the phrases subject. “ Unum\"\" is the neuter form of the word “unus\"\" meaning “one. \"\""

"text": "Most Valuable Coins The Top 25 Most Valuable U. S. Pennies The Top 25 Most Valuable U. S. Pennies Joshua Mc Morrow-Hernandez Want to know what the most valuable pennies are? At Coin Values, we are always staying on top of the latest changes in coin prices, and we have a list of the top 25 most valuable pennies. Small cents, by the way, are 19.1 millimeter diameter pennies that have been produced by the United States Mint since 1856. Do you have any of these coins in your penny jar? It may be worth taking a look, because many of the most valuable pennies on this list were made in the 20th century. It’s possible these coins may be hiding in the basement, inside an attic box, or even inside your penny jar. Here’s a list of the top 25 most valuable pennies:1943-S copper Lincoln Wheat Penny, $185,000 – The 1943-S copper cent is the one of the most valuable small cents, with one example having sold for a cool $1 million at an auction in 2012. The story behind copper 1943 Lincoln Pennies is presumed to be a pure accident at the U. S. Mint – perhaps a few leftover copper planchets from 1942 were stuck in the coining press system and struck with 1943 penny dies. Whatever the origin of the 1943 copper pennies, they are considered by the Professional Coin Grading Service to be the “most desirable and valuable of all Mint errors” and are highly sought-after by U. S. coin collectors.1944 Steel Lincoln Wheat Penny, $125,000 – It’s believed that a similar story behind the creation of the 1943 copper cent is also what led to minting of the 1944 steel penny; blank steel cent planchets from 1943 that were hiding away in the coining presses wound up getting stamped with the 1944 dies, and the result is a rarity that financially well-heeled coin collectors will pay hundreds of thousands to buy.1943 copper Lincoln Wheat Penny, $45,000 – A Philadelphia Mint version of the 1943 copper penny may not be worth quite as much as a San Francisco Mint or Denver Mint example in Extremely Fine grade on the Sheldon Grading Scale, but it’s a rare coin nevertheless. It’s believed that less than 30 copper 1943 pennies exist from across all three mints ( Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco) operating at that time.1856 Flying Eagle penny, $12,850 – Only 2,000 examples of the Flying Eagle cents were ever made."

"text": "\"U. S. Coin Values Guide Collecting Coin Collecting What Does E Pluribus Unum Mean? By Susan Headley Updated 12/25/17Share Pin Email E Pluribus Unum has appeared on all United States coins since 1795.. Heritage Auction Galleries E Pluribus Unum appears on U. S. coins, currency, and in other places. What does E Pluribus Unum mean, and what is the story behind this important U. S. motto? E Pluribus Unum is Latin for \"\"out of many, one.\"\" Sometimes it is translated more loosely as \"\"one from many.\"\" E Pluribus Unum refers to the fact that the United States was formed as a cohesive single nation as the result of the thirteen smaller colonies joining together. The motto E Pluribus Unum was first proposed by the U. S. Continental Congress in 1782, for use on the Great Seal of the United States. The immediate inspiration for the use of this term is believed to be Gentlemen's Magazine, which was an important men's magazine published in England beginning in the early 18th century. It was a very influential magazine among the intellectual elite. Every year, Gentlemen's Magazine would do a special issue, comprised of the best of the year's articles, and the Latin term \"\"E Pluribus Unum\"\" appeared on the title page as a way of explaining that this issue of the magazine became \"\"one issue from many previous issues. \"\""

Consultant and artist Pierre Du Simitière chose the Latin motto, and his design expresses this theme. This motto was well known to literate Americans of the 18th century. It appeared in the Gentleman's Magazine, published monthly in London since 1731. The legend \"\"E pluribus unum\"\" was used on the title pages of the annual volumes that contained a collection of the year's twelve editions of the magazine. In Thomson's 1782 sketch, for the final design, Charles Thomson put this motto on a scroll held in the bald eagle 's beak. \"\""

"text": "E Pluribus... Separation: Deepening Double Segregation for More Students Authors: Gary Orfield, John Kucsera, Genevieve Siegel-Hawley Date Published: September 19, 2012This report suggests a number of specific ways to reverse the trends toward deepening resegregation and educational inequalities. Related Documents Full report: E Pluribus... Separation Executive Summary: E Pluribus... Separation Ed itor's Note: This new research by the Civil Rights Project includes an extensive report on national trends, “ E Pluribus… Separation: Deepening Double Segregation for More Students ,” as well as two smaller regional reports, “ The Western States: Profound Diversity but Severe Segregation for Latino Students ,” and “ Southern Slippage: Growing School Segregation in the Most Desegregated Region of the Country .”Executive Summary This report shows that segregation has increased seriously across the country for Latino students, who are attending more intensely segregated and impoverished schools than they have for generations. The segregation increases have been the most dramatic in the West. The typical Latino student in the region attends a school where less than a quarter of their classmates are white; nearly two-thirds are other Latinos; and two-thirds are poor. California, New York and Texas, all states that have been profoundly altered by immigration trends over the last half-century, are among the most segregated states for Latino students along multiple dimensions. In spite of declining residential segregation for black families and large-scale movement to the suburbs in most parts of the country, school segregation remains very high for black students. It is also double segregation by both race and poverty. Nationwide, the typical black student is now in a school where almost two out of every three classmates (64%) are low-income, nearly double the level in schools of the typical white or Asian student (37% and 39%, respectively). New York, Illinois, and Michigan consistently top the list of the most segregated states for black students. Among the states with significant black enrollments, blacks are least likely to attend intensely segregated schools in Washington, Nebraska, and Kansas."

"text": "\"The Shadow robot hand system Robotics is an interdisciplinary branch of engineering and science that includes mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, and others. Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing. These technologies are used to develop machines that can substitute for humans and replicate human actions. Robots can be used in any situation and for any purpose, but today many are used in dangerous environments (including bomb detection and de-activation ), manufacturing processes, or where humans cannot survive. Robots can take on any form but some are made to resemble humans in appearance. This is said to help in the acceptance of a robot in certain replicative behaviors usually performed by people. Such robots attempt to replicate walking, lifting, speech, cognition, and basically anything a human can do. Many of today's robots are inspired by nature, contributing to the field of bio-inspired robotics. The concept of creating machines that can operate autonomously dates back to classical times, but research into the functionality and potential uses of robots did not grow substantially until the 20th century. [ 1] Throughout history, it has been frequently assumed that robots will one day be able to mimic human behavior and manage tasks in a human-like fashion."

"text": "Most Valuable Coins The Top 25 Most Valuable U. S. Dimes The Top 25 Most Valuable U. S. Dimes Joshua Mc Morrow-Hernandez Many of the most valuable dimes on this are from the early 19th century which was a time when the dime, like the United States Monetary System, was very young. The dime was the first coin made by the United States Mint, starting in 1796. While dimes are essential collector items in the numismatic community, they don’t seem to share the same broad spotlight that pennies and silver dollars do. But that can be good news for dime-crazy numismatists who are able score great deals on scarce coins that may cost a fraction of what other similarly rare pieces may go for in the coin market. For example, many Seated Liberty Dimes – such as the 1846 or any of the 1850s San Francisco Mint pieces – have very small mintage figures (100,000 or lower), yet can be bought for well under $200 in a grade of Good-4 on the Sheldon Grading Scale. Both the Barber Dime and Mercury Dime series are among the most popular dimes collected. While very few representatives of either of those two series pop up in this list of most valuable dimes, there are indeed several scarce issues from each of those two series, and they are indeed numismatic treasures. There are even a couple of Roosevelt Dimes that appear in this list of most valuable dimes, however those modern rarities are two proof issues that lack their San Francisco “S” mint mark. Otherwise, there are no regular-issue Roosevelt Dimes on this list, though a few issues are considered fairly scarce in the scope of that high-production series and are worth a fair chunk of change more than face value. Unless otherwise noted, all the issues listed among the most valuable dimes have prices corresponding to specimens in a grade of Good-4.1894-S Barber Dime: $1.9 million – This much-storied Barber Dime derives from a small batch of 24 proof dimes that were made as gifts for friends of the San Francisco mint superintendent."

Devol's invention has reshaped production lines around the world. Famously first embraced by the Japanese, robotic arms are now hard at work in the production of everything from cars to pancakes. Devol received his patent for \"\"Programmed Article Transfer\"\" in 1961. The patent begins: The present invention relates to the automatic operation of machinery, particularly the handling apparatus, and to automatic control apparatus suited for such machinery. The first robotic arm was installed at the General Motors plant in Ewing Township, New Jersey, lifting and stacking hot metal parts. The arm weighed 4,000 pounds and cost $25,000. Today, one of the early models is housed by the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, though it is not currently on display."

The golem was created to help with menial labor. The ancient Greek god Hephaestus was believed to build himself mechanical assistants out of gold. Around 400 B. C. E., the Greek mathematician Archytas of Tarentum built a mechanical bird to try and better understand how birds fly. Around 1495, Leonardo Da Vinci publishes designs for a mechanical knight. Over the next 400 years, several toy automata are built, largely for the entertainment of royalty. The word \"\"robot\"\" is first used in 1921 by Czech playwrite Karel Capek in his play R. U. R.

Advantages of Rare Coins as an Investment1. Investment quality US coins historically protect wealth, for example, as a hedge against the impact of inflation, especially in countries where paper currency is in decline. Any time fiat money is threatened, rare coins can protect net wealth similar to how an allocation of cash in silver bullion acts.2. Further to the 'stored value' Benefit noted here, there is the potential for capital growth with time. In a similar manner to other hard assets, for example: sterling silver antiques; sporting memorabilia; vintage guitars and amplifiers; classic and vintage cars; military and railroad historic artifacts; travel souvenirs; action figures; model trains, and other collectibles, the convertable worth of rare US coins appreciates with time.3. Rare coins are an easy to liquidate asset. There is an active market for trading coins."

The Truth: Although symbols are open to many interpretations, we do have some historical insight into the design and meaning of some of the images on the one dollar bill. Using the text from the most commonly circulated email on this subject, let’s go through some of the lines that seem to be of most interest. All explanations and interpretations are taken from the United States Treasury Department and the United States Department of State, which is the official keeper of the United States Seal.e Rumor: The one dollar bill you’re looking at first came off the presses in 1957 in its present design. The Truth: This is true. According to the U. S. Treasury Department, that is when the motto, “In God We Trust” started being used on paper money. It was in use on coins long before that.e Rumor: If you look on the front of the bill, you will see the United States Treasury Seal. On the top you will see the scales for the balance-a balanced budget. The Truth: That may be somebody’s interpretation of the scales, but the Treasury Department has little to do with whether the budget is balanced."

Kids love them, teens use them more than actual words, moms and dads all over misuse them like ballers every night, grandmothers from countries that speak another language are fierce with them! Everybody has fun with them. Instagram released a report detailing their data which saw an explosion of increased use of emojis between many users who didn’t speak the same language as each other. Yes, people can actually communicate without words (the Egyptians had hieroglyphics, we have emojis. ) Emojis are so hot right now that even Forbes magazine has been featuring pieces about emojis. They quite eloquently once defined them like so:“Emojis are small digital images that are accessible through virtual keyboards used for expressing emotions on smartphones, tablets and PCs. ”Just like us, every Emoji has a unique story behind them, but they also come with a set of unwritten social rules.

"text": "\"Full Answer Emoji means \"\"picture letter\"\" in Japanese. People use the small digital pictures to express an idea or emotion in electronic communication. Each emoji has an official name, and the Unicode Consortium annually approves new emoji. Some emojis' meanings have changed in popular culture and no longer represent their original Japanese meaning. An emoji showing a person bowing deeply was originally a sign of respect, but in popular culture, as of 2015, people use the emoji to portray an inquisitive or thoughtful tone. The University of Miami adopted the hands raised in celebration as \"\"throwing up the U\"\" in honor of the University of Miami Hurricanes, but the original intention of this emoji was to express joy. An emoji showing a person with folded hands represents pleading or praying in popular culture, but the original Japanese purpose, it meant an expression of gratitude or an apology. On June 16, 2014, the Unicode Consortium approved several new emoji as part of Unicode 7.0. New emoji include a thermometer, bouquet of flowers, snow-capped mountain, desert and Celtic cross.

Good grace we have emoji, which add a sense of depth to our two-dimensional communications. Apart from adding meaning to our words, emoji can effectively replace short messages – the struggle of remembering acronyms while trying to appear cool 10 years ago was so real and pressing. But, with a high tide of applications that use emoji – and have opted for individual designs, finding the right expression and understanding emoji meanings can be an exhausting mental exercise. Don’t sweat, we will help you find the right emoji to express admiration for your crush, the lethargy of Mondays, disagreement during a fight with your significant other, or the joy of looking at penguin chicks or panda cubs. Gladly, we have Unicode standards to define as many as 2,800+ emoji but, don’t worry, we will not oppress you trying to describe all of them. So, follow along for the list of emoji meanings that we think will help you master the art of instant messaging. Face Emoji Meanings Happy A smile with mouth wide open and fuller cheeks, this is the perfect emoji to describe happiness. Cheerful When there’s too much joy to contain, it deserves to be spread and this is the emoji to express it.

What is Language? – Language as Symbolism Overview Language can be thought of as a system of communication that uses symbols to convey deep meaning. Symbols can be words, images, body language, sounds, etc. [ 1]An Introduction to the Idea of Language as Symbolism and Symbolic Language Language is symbolic in more ways than can be summarized in a sentence or paragraph, but generally we are talking about how symbols can stand for something else, how they can be used to communicate, and how they can be imbued with meaning. For a simple example of symbolic language: the word cat is symbolic of the idea of a cat, a dollar is a symbol of $1 of economic value, the word yes or a nod is a symbol of confirmation, a grimace is a symbol of disapproval, and a smiley face emoji is a symbol of happiness . Constant Fatigue Is A Warning Sign - See The Simple Fix Promoted Content Learn The Secret If I want to communicate happiness, it can be as simple as offering symbolic emoji to a friend. That simple symbol doesn’t have just one meaning, but it has a fairly common meaning, and general “communication value” (it works for conveying ideas between people). That said, most symbols, and our use of them in practice, is anything but simple. Most symbols mean many different things at once, and can mean different things to different people depending on a number of controllable and uncontrollable factors (like context, subtext, and the past experiences of those communicating)."

Ustick is the general manager of Super Dawg Drive-In, the Chicago hot dog business that has been in her family for three generations. So when, about a year ago, she noticed that a hot dog was missing from her emoji keyboard, it wasn't something she could overlook. \"\" I mention hot dogs in just about every conversation I have,\"\" says Ustick, 31. \"\" The fact that they aren't in emoji is frustrating. It limits my ability to communicate on social media about my business and my passion for this American comfort food. \"\" Ustick started tracking the way people across Twitter were talking about the lack of a hot dog emoji, and she found a tribe of like-minded supporters. One of them drew up a hot dog graphic to look like an emoji and sent it to her. That's when Ustick took her rant public. She launched a Change.org petition asking Shigetaka Kurita and the president of the United States for a hot dog emoji, but neither could do a thing about her request."

Things like this:: – )But the emoticon, that display of feeling crafted from punctuation, does have a birth story, and it unfolded exactly 32 years ago today, on Sept. 19, 1982. Scott Fahlman, a computer scientist at Carnegie Mellon, noticed that conversations were going awry on electronic message boards the staff was using to communicate in the early 1980s. Jokes were being lost, tones were being misconstrued and unnecessary tirades were eclipsing the intended discussions. So Fahlman, then in his early 30s, made a simple, legendary suggestion: if you’re being humorous or ironic, label your comment with a smiley face made of a colon, dash and parenthesis. Soon emoticons were spreading to other universities, then seeping into emails and eventually text messages across the world, filling the giant hole left by all the visual cues present only in face-to-face communication. The tone of one’s voice, the furrowing of one’s brow, the erect middle finger. “ One of the main problems with text communication is that it’s just different from how we’ve talked to each other for most of the existence of language,” says computational linguist Tyler Schnoebelen, who wrote his thesis on emoticons at Stanford. “ There they are, these words, sort of flat. We’re depleted, we’re dry in terms of the cues we get to use to signal exactly what we mean."

GLAAD encourages journalists to use Pride events as an opportunity to discuss the history of LGBT advocacy, show the diversity of the LGBT community, and examine recent gains and setbacks made by the community HISTORY OF PRIDEThe majority of Pride events are held in June to commemorate the anniversary of the Stonewall Rebellion in New York City on June 28, 1969, which most historians consider to be the birth of the modern LGBT movement. At the time, police raids on bars catering to LGBT patrons were common, but that night, the patrons of the Stonewall Inn fought back. While historical accounts of the night vary, the violent response ignited a national firestorm of activism that brought new visibility to the struggle for LGBT equality. June is unofficially recognized as Pride Month by the LGBT community, and many Pride events still occur on the last Sunday in June to commemorate the anniversary of Stonewall. In some places Pride events stretch out over a weekend or an entire week, while in other areas, Pride events occur at different times of the year altogether (particularly in parts of the country where June is especially hot). PRIDE TODAYOver time, the smaller marches and gatherings organized by community members evolved into a highly organized slate of events attracting a broad range of LGBT community members and straight allies."

"text": "\"September 20, 2016 2:27PM EDTHuman Rights Watch Submission to the CEDAW Committee Consideration of Bangladesh’s Periodic Report, 65th Session Show More Services Print Human Rights Watch welcomes the opportunity to provide input drawn from our research on Bangladesh’s obligations under the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW). A. Marriage Rights (Article 16 and 13a)Bangladesh has the highest rate of child marriage in Asia, with a particularly shocking number of girls marrying before the age of 15. The prevalence of child marriage has devastating consequences for individual girls, their families, and Bangladesh’s development as a whole. Child Marriage Between 2005 and 2013, 29 percent of girls in Bangladesh married before the age of 15 and 65 percent married before the age of 18. [ 1] Despite a commitment by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in 2014 to end child marriage under age 15 by 2021 and to end child marriage under age 18 by 2041, the government has made little progress in reducing child marriage and has backtracked on these commitments in a destructive manner by seeking to create changes in the law that would effectively lower the age of marriage for girls from 18 to 16 [2]Causes and Consequences Gender discrimination feeds social attitudes and customs that harm girls at every stage of their lives and fuel the country’s extremely high rate of child marriage. Desperate poverty remains a daily reality for many families in Bangladesh, and many parents see child marriage as their best option to safeguard the future of a daughter they feel they can neither feed nor educate nor protect. Bangladesh’s status as one of the countries in the world most affected by natural disasters and climate change adds an additional element of hardship to many families, especially those living in the most marginal and disaster-affected parts of the country. [ 3] In many of the villages Human Rights Watch visited in the course of researching the report Marry Before Your House is Swept Away, child marriage is not only socially acceptable but also expected. Child marriage around the world is associated with many harmful consequences, including health dangers associated with early pregnancy, lower educational achievement for girls who marry earlier, a higher incidence of spousal violence, and an increased likelihood of poverty. [ 4] Research shows that pregnant girls aged 10-14 are five times more likely to die during delivery than mothers aged 20-24; girls aged 15-19 are still twice as likely to die during delivery than women aged 20-24.

"text": "Vox's home for compelling, provocative narrative essays. It started with a small idea on Facebook, born out of despair after the election — a group of women marching to protest the presidency of Donald Trump. Soon, the idea of a women’s protest ballooned through social media channels into a viral event with thousands expected to descend on Washington, DC, the day after inauguration. Organizing the protest got off to a shaky start. The initial organizers, white women, sparked controversy for calling the march the Million Women March, the same name of famous marches organized by black activists in the ’90s to address struggles of the black community. Some women took to the Facebook event page to express their fear and frustration that the protest represented an exclusive feminism for white women only, ignoring intersecting race, class, and sexual orientation identities that may have other needs. Kainaz Amaria/Vox Over the past few months, the organizers of the Women’s March have brought several women of color with activist backgrounds onto the leadership team. Recently, the march released its official platform, which united a series of progressive causes with a strong emphasis on intersectionality and the inclusion of all marginalized groups. Rallying issues included dismantling gender and racial inequality in the criminal justice system, reproductive, immigrant and LGBTQ rights, freedom from sexual violence, and labor protections for all workers. The range of issues encapsulated in the protest under the banner of the Women’s March is diverse."

Check out all the results for every poll here. Seventy-two people responded, and we’ll be sharing the results over the next few weeks, with the fifth poll up today: The most important LGBT musicians or bands of the last 45 years. Now, before we get to the results: We do realize doing this kind of thing is highly subjective, which is why we’re going with “most important” and not “ best. ” We hoped that what resulted was eclectic mix of musicians that have helped shape the queer cultural landscape. And we think it really is. But here are some interesting things to note before you go through the list: The “points” listed next to each film refers to the way we tabulated things. People voted in top 10 lists, so if the person was #1, it got 10 points, #2 got 9 points, etc. Men made up for the majority with 16, with 9 women represented."

It’s not an easy question, as the third year …By Diversity Inc Staff / February 22, 2013Employees who feel they can “bring their whole selves to work” and are spending their days in inclusive environments are more engaged and, therefore, more innovative and productive. The question for multinational corporations increasingly is: How can we make that happen in all our global locations? It’s not an easy question, as the third year of our intense Global Diversity Research reveals. We surveyed more than 200 corporate officers in 46 countries in eight regions. We found wide discrepancies in attitudes toward inclusion of women; ethnic, racial and religious minorities; people with disabilities; and people from lower-income or -class groups. The greatest differences are in inclusion of LGBT people, which varies from U. S. and European corporate cultures where LGBT resource groups are increasingly common to Asian, Middle Eastern and African countries where being out means being ostracized, imprisoned or even killed. Our in-depth interviews with more than 20 corporations on their best practices revealed that a few multinationals, all of which have led the way in diversity and inclusion in the United States, have jumped out front in their efforts to create inclusive cultures."

"text": "\"Introducing The Federalist, A New Web Magazine For Anti-LGBT Conservatives Blog ››› April 2, 2014 12:55 PM EDT ››› LUKE BRINKER403As the online news and commentary landscape continues to expand, the nascent conservative web magazine The Federalist has quickly carved out a role as a brash, anti-establishment site. It has also become an outlet for often-rabid anti-LGBT talking points. Launched in September 2013 as a \"\"web magazine on politics, policy, and culture,\"\" The Federalist is helmed by publisher Ben Domenech, a co-founder of the right-wing blog Red State.com and senior fellow at the Heartland Institute, a conservative think tank known for its opposition to climate science and funding from industry sources like the Koch brothers. Co-founder Sean Davis came to conservative journalism after a career in GOP politics, having worked for Gov. Rick Perry (R-TX) and Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK). Senior editors David Harsanyi and Mollie Hemingway and senior writer Robert Tracinski round out The Federalist's leadership. In its short existence, The Federalist has won plaudits from conservative organizations and activists, not least those best known for their anti-LGBT advocacy. A look at the website's track record on LGBT issues leaves little doubt as to why The Federalist counts some of the most notorious anti-LGBT groups among its most ardent fans. Touted by Domenech as a publication \"\" that rejects the assumptions of the media establishment ,\"\" The Federalist regularly frames its opposition to LGBT equality as brave defiance of elite conventions. This posture leads The Federalist to inveigh against even the most basic protections for LGBT people. Arguments Against Marriage Equality Take writer Rachel Lu's opposition to anti-bullying legislation."

Those will be featured as well. Gay Pride Flag –The original Gay Pride Flag was designed by Gilbert Baker for the 1978 San Francisco Gay Freedom Celebration. It originally had eight stripes, and each color represented a different aspect of humanity and equality: The flag was changed to seven colors, and the pink strip was removed because the fabric color was not available in large enough quantities. In 1979, the flag was changed to 6 colors, and the blue was changed to a royal blue. This is the flag we see today: Bisexual Pride Flag –The Bisexual Pride Flag was unveiled in 1998 on December 5th. The flag was designed by Michael Page. The flag consists of three stripes."

"text": "\"Social & Policy Issues March 20, 2015Print San Francisco Metro Area Ranks Highest in LGBT Percentageby Frank Newport and Gary J. Gates PRINCETON, N. J. -- The San Francisco metropolitan area has the highest percentage of the adult population who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (LGBT) of any of the top 50 U. S. metropolitan areas, followed by Portland, Oregon, and Austin, Texas. Variation in the percentage who identify as LGBT across the largest metro areas is relatively narrow, with San Francisco's percentage just 2.6 percentage points higher than the national average of 3.6%, and the lowest-ranked metro area -- Birmingham, Alabama -- one point below the national average. The top 10 includes metro areas from every region of the country except the Midwest. Given the long history of a visible and politically active LGBT community in San Francisco, the city's ranking at the top of this list is not surprising. Similar to San Francisco, Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) like Portland, Seattle and Los Angeles in the West, and Boston in the Northeast, are known for their progressive social and political climates and active LGBT communities. Hartford is the capital of Connecticut, which has permitted same-sex couples to legally marry longer than every state except Massachusetts. MSAs like Austin and New Orleans in the South, and Denver in the Rocky Mountain region, all have reputations as socially progressive cities within states and regions that are much more conservative, perhaps making them regional hubs for the LGBT population. The ranking of Salt Lake City in the top 10 may seem surprising because Utah is one of the most conservative states in the country. However, the state recently passed a law prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity in employment and public accommodation, the first state to do so since 2007. The majority of states still do not have such laws on the books."

These communities generally celebrate pride, diversity, individuality, and sexuality. LGBT activists and sociologists see LGBT community-building as a counterbalance to heterosexism, homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, sexualism, and conformist pressures that exist in the larger society. The term pride or sometimes gay pride is used to express the LGBT community's identity and collective strength; pride parades provide both a prime example of the use and a demonstration of the general meaning of the term. The LGBT community is diverse in political affiliation. Not all people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender consider themselves part of the LGBT community."

"text": "\"by James Martin September 21, 2017Follow James Martin SJJames Martin, SJ, is a Jesuit priest, editor at large of America and author of \"\"Building a Bridge. \"\" When I set out to build a bridge between Catholics and gay people, I had one thing in mind: Jesus Christ. ( Cade Martin/The Washington Post)After a gunman killed 49 people at Pulse, a predominantly gay nightclub in Orlando in 2016, I found myself disappointed that more Catholic leaders did not offer support to the LGBT community. And that the few who did found it difficult to acknowledge that LGBT people specifically had been targeted for murder. For me, that silence highlighted a certain failure to be compassionate to the LGBT community even in a moment of tragedy. It also revealed that the LGBT community was still largely invisible to some church authorities. In response, I recorded a brief video that was posted on Facebook. It offered some support for the LGBT community during a terribly difficult few weeks. Not long afterwards, New Ways Ministry, an organization that ministers to and advocates for LGBT Catholics, invited me to accept their Bridge Building Award. Until then, I had never done what you might call formal ministry with LGBT Catholics, besides the counseling that almost every church worker does in his or her ministry."

The term for whites is muzungu (plural wazungu or bazungu), and non-African visitors should get used to hearing the word shouted out by children in every corner of the country. It is not a derogatory term, but originates from a Swahili word meaning 'looking dizzy or confused and wandering about aimlessly' as the first white people did when they first arrived in East Africa. Generally the word muzungu refers to a white person but it can be anyone who is not Ugandan. Even visiting Ugandans (from the diaspora) are called the term on occasion. You can choose to ignore it, or wave back, depending on the situation."

As Tarr (1998, 1-2) observed: “Leading constitutional-law texts – even those that proclaim as their subject the generic ‘constitutional law’ or ‘American constitutional law’ – focus exclusively on the United States Constitution and its interpretation. So too do most contemporary constitutional commentaries and constitutional histories. Legal scholars announce constitutional theories that actually encompass only the federal Constitution – the rough equivalent of propounding a literary theory that pertains to a single novel. Small wonder, then, that almost half the respondents to a recent survey did not even realize that their state had a constitution. ”Indeed, the United States is among only about a dozen nations of the world with federal systems that have subnational units with their own constitutions. [ The other countries are Argentina, Australia, Austria, Ethiopia, Germany, Mexico, South Africa, Switzerland, and Venezuela. Italy and Spain appear to be in transition to joining this group (Williams 2009). ] Several factors explain why “state constitutions do not inspire the same reverence as the U. S. Constitution” (Reed 2001, 64). A leading reason is the mutability of state charters."

Gates and Frank Newport All states are within two percentage points of the overall national average of 3.5%PRINCETON, NJ -- The percentage of U. S. adults who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT) ranges from 1.7% in North Dakota to 5.1% in Hawaii and 10% in the District of Columbia, according to Gallup surveys conducted from June-December 2012. Residents in the District of Columbia were most likely to identify as LGBT (10%). Among states, the highest percentage was in Hawaii (5.1%) and the lowest in North Dakota (1.7%), but all states are within two percentage points of the nationwide average of 3.5%. These results are based on responses to the question, \"\"Do you, personally, identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender?\"\" included in 206,186 Gallup Daily tracking interviews conducted between June 1 and Dec. 30, 2012. This is the largest single study of the distribution of the LGBT population in the U. S. on record, and the first time a study has had large enough sample sizes to provide estimates of the LGBT population by state. As was outlined in the first report of these data in October, measuring sexual orientation and gender identity can be challenging because these concepts involve complex social and cultural patterns. There are a number of ways to measure lesbian, gay, and bisexual orientation, and transgender status. Gallup chose a broad measure of personal identification as LGBT because this grouping of four statuses is commonly used in current American discourse, and as a result has important cultural and political significance. One limitation of this approach is that it is not possible to separately consider differences among lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, or transgender individuals."

Summary: In an attempt to objectively report on all aspects of human sexuality, we find it impossible to use words and phrases that are acceptable to: Human sexologists,Mental health professionals,The LGBT community, and to Religious and social conservatives. These groups tend to apply different meanings and attach various interpretations and negative emotional baggage to many terms related to this topic. We will try to steer a middle course in our essays. We recognize that this will probably end up alienating everyone. However, until all the major actors can harmonize their terminology, some conflict over terms is inevitable. The problem: The English language is in a continual state of flux. This is particularly true in the area of human sexuality."

"text": "The Symbolism Of The Native American Dream Catcher Posted on November 18, 2014 | Views: 8689by Jade Small : It is believed that the origin of the Native American dream catcher (or Indian dream catchers) is from the Ojibwa Chippewa tribe…The Ojibwa would tie strands of sinew string around a frame of bent wood that was in a small round or tear drop shape. The patterns of the dream catcher would be similar to how these Native Americans tied the webbing for their snowshoes. However a Lakota story tells of how Iktomi (spider) came and spoke to an old Lakota spiritual leader who was on a high mountain and had a vision. In his vision, Iktomi, the great trickster and searcher of wisdom, appeared in the form of a spider. Iktomi spoke to him in a sacred language. As he spoke, Iktomi the spider picked up the elder’s willow hoop which had feathers, horsehair, beads and offerings on it, and began to spin a web. He spoke to the elder about the cycles of life, how we begin our lives as infants, move on through childhood and on to adulthood. Finally we go to old age where we must be taken care of as infants, completing the cycle. But, Iktomi said as he continued to spin his web, in each time of life there are many forces, some good and some bad. If you listen to the good forces, they will steer you in the right direction."

Symbols - Representations - Correspondences Animal Symbols, Astrology Symbols, Celtic Symbols, Zodiac and Horoscope, Love Signs, and other Magic Symbols, Emblems, Glyphs, and Tattoo designs we take for granted today as static signs of religious or secular life were created long ago and through modern Iconography have been revealed as representations of our world—our universe—the movements of earth and heaven, symbols of the seasons, and representations of cosmic and earthly deities. Over time, these ancient symbols have acquired layers of increasingly complex meaning, and this evolution of meaning tells us much about how we developed our ideas about the nature of life and the universe. Signs used in modern magick and Western religious traditions such as the Celtic symbols, zodiac symbols, Egyptian symbols, tattoo symbols, dream symbols, kanji symbols, religious symbols, love symbols, ancient symbols, mystic signs and symbols, Greek symbols, Irish symbols and their symbol meanings, share a common ancestry that dates before the creation of writing. These symbols are powerful because they are archetypal—as even cultures that do not share language share an innate understanding of symbols just as the ancient Celts did.

Perhaps no other group of people has quite the rich and storied culture as those of the Native Americans. They have a history rich in struggle, strife, and triumph. So many aspects of our modern life were adapted from the old Indian cultures practiced centuries ago. Many familiar symbols that we take for granted were originated by Native Americans. The teepee, totem pole, peace pipe, and moccasins are just a few examples, but each of these symbols were actually integral pieces of a larger picture that wove together the tapestry of Native American life. Everything from native plants and animals to housing to the weather became a part of the culture in Indian life. The animals were revered as spirits, and although they were hunted and killed, their skins and hides were used as clothing and drums, their meat was never wasted, and their spirits lived on in the mind of the tribes. Plants were cultivated and harvested, and used for various things such as dyes for blankets. The rain and sun were considered to be Gods, giving a sign to the Indians as the seasons changed."

Getty Imagesby Melissa Kelly Updated February 22, 2018Literature often mimics life, so naturally, some novels explore controversial subjects. When parents or educators take offense to a topic, they may challenge the appropriateness of making a particular book available at a public school. On occasion, the challenge may result in a ban that wholly restricts its distribution. The American Library Association (ALA), however, contends that \"\"...only parents have the right and the responsibility to restrict the access of their children — and only their children — to library resources. \"\" The 12 books on this list have faced many challenges, and all have been banned on more than one occasion, many in public libraries themselves. This sampling illustrates the variety of books that may come under scrutiny each year. The most common objections include sexually explicit content, offensive language and \"\"unsuitable material,\"\" a catch-all phrase used when someone doesn't agree with the morality expressed in a book or the portrayal of characters, settings, or events. Parents initiate the majority of challenges. The ALA denounces such censorship and maintains an ongoing list of ban attempts to keep the public informed."

For thousands of years people have used their bodies as a canvas where they could express their beliefs and personality. It is interesting that the meanings of one particular tattoo can be diametrically opposed in different cultures. For instance, the dragon tattoo in Asian culture refers to wisdom, progress and welfare, while the same tattoo design in western cultures symbolizes evil and oppression. Throughout history of humankind, for many cultures tattoos were marks of machismo, symbols of boys becoming men. Among Native Americans tattoos were used to distinguish great warriors from other members of the tribe. Tradition of the American Indian tribes shows that men tattooed weapons on their bodies, while the female members of tribes tattooed labor tools. Today it is pretty common to tattoo the name of your loved one, while back in the days the Native Americans tattooed their own names. There are numerous traditional Native American tattoo designs, so before you decide which tattoo you want, you have to learn their meanings. One of the most popular tattoos in the Native American history is a feather tattoo design."

Seaver received 98.8 percent of the votes when he was inducted in 1992. Candidates need 75 percent to be elected and can remain on the writers’ ballot up to 10 years, as long as they maintain at least 5 percent of the vote. “I’m truly honored to be elected, and to have the highest percentage is definitely a shock,” Griffey said. “"

"text": "Men Women40 Native American Tattoo Designs that make you proud!Native American tattoos are a great way for the natives to enjoy their culture as they recognize their heritage. The earliest settlers in the US are well known for their symbolic tattoos that they still identify with till today. The Native Americans were deeply spiritual and the ancient tribal tattooing was often done as a part of religious practice. The common Native American tattoo designs included animals, birds and reptiles that were often tattooed with the clan name of the wearer incorporated. In Native American culture, the dreamcatcher is a well known symbol and a tattoo design that’s popular and has caught the attention of people from all walks of life. It makes a colorful, one of a kind motif that incorporates spider webs, beads and feathers into an intricate and meaningful design pattern. The best part is that a dreamcatcher tattoo has no particular pattern that it follows so it can be created in a multitude of different ways. However, the dreamcatcher is far from being the only Native American tattoo design that has become popular throughout the years in all different cultures. The symbols of Native American tattoo design may differ from one tribe to another, where different tribes were identified by different Native American tattoos. In some instances after winning a war, the winners would be tattooed as a symbol signifying victory."

"text": "What is WAR? Wins Above Replacement (WAR) is an attempt by the sabermetric baseball community to summarize a player’s total contributions to their team in one statistic. You should always use more than one metric at a time when evaluating players, but WAR is all-inclusive and provides a useful reference point for comparing players. WAR offers an estimate to answer the question, “If this player got injured and their team had to replace them with a freely available minor leaguer or a AAAA player from their bench, how much value would the team be losing?” This value is expressed in a wins format, so we could say that Player X is worth +6.3 wins to their team while Player Y is only worth +3.5 wins, which means it is highly likely that Player X has been more valuable than Player Y. WAR is not meant to be a perfectly precise indicator of a player’s contribution, but rather an estimate of their value to date. Given the imperfections of some of the available data and the assumptions made to calculate other components, WAR works best as an approximation. A 6 WAR player might be worth between 5.0 and 7.0 WAR, but it is pretty safe to say they are at least an All-Star level player and potentially an MVP. While WAR is not as complicated as some might think, it does require a good bit of information to calculate and understand. Below you can find general information about WAR and links to specific information about position players and pitchers, as WAR is obviously calculated differently for each. ● For Position Players● For Pitchers Calculation: Calculating WAR, especially for position players, is simpler than you’d think."

"text": "Definition of Consonance Consonance is a literary device in which a consonant sound is repeated in words that are in close proximity. The repeated sound can appear anywhere in the words, unlike in alliteration where the repeated consonant sound must occur in the stressed part of the word. Consonance is also a similar concept to assonance, which refers to the repetition of vowel sounds in quick succession. The word consonance comes from the Latin word consonantem, which means “harmony” or “agreement.” In different contexts the word consonance has different meanings, but the definition of consonance as a literary term came into being in the mid-1500s. Difference Between Consonance and Assonance Consonance and assonance are related, yet opposite, poetic devices. As stated above, consonance refers to the repetition of consonant sounds in nearby words whereas assonance refers to the repetition of vowel sounds. In both cases it does not matter where in the words the repeated sounds occur. An easy way to remember the difference between the two is that “consonance” begins with a consonant, whereas “assonance” begins with a vowel. Special Cases of Consonance Alliteration: Alliteration is a well-known form of consonance."

This bill aimed to lock in poverty-level wages for minor league baseball players by formally amending the Fair Labor Standards Act and creating a specific exemption that barred minor league baseball players—who earn between $1,100 and $2,150 per month for a five-month season—from receiving minimum wage or overtime pay. Now the MLB released a press release of their own yesterday in relation to the bill: Major League Baseball issued the following statement this afternoon regarding the bipartisan legislation introduced in the United States House of Representatives:\"\"There are approximately 7,500 players in Minor League Baseball. MLB pays over a half a billion dollars to Minor League players in signing bonuses and salary each year. Minor League clubs could not afford these massive player costs. MLB heavily subsidizes Minor League Baseball by providing Minor League clubs with its players, allowing professional baseball to be played in many communities in the United States that cannot support a Major League franchise. Moreover, for the overwhelming majority of individuals, being a Minor League Baseball player is not a career but a short-term seasonal apprenticeship in which the player either advances to the Major Leagues or pursues another career. \"\" Minor League Baseball players always have been salaried employees similar to artists, musicians and other creative professionals who are exempt from the Fair Labor Standards Act. Like those professionals, it is simply impractical to treat professional athletes as hourly employees whose pay may be determined by such things as how long their games last, when they choose to arrive at the ballpark, how much they practice or condition to stay in shape, and how many promotional or charitable appearances they make. \"\" Source: http://m.mlb.com/new...ticle/187167466 Your thoughts?"

The three main regions of the brain are the midbrain, hindbrain and forebrain, which is broken up into additional sections including the frontal lobe, occipital lobe and temporal lobe that control different parts of the body. All of these work together like a well-oiled machine to allow humans to function properly. The cerebellum is located at the lower back part of the brain. This part of the brain controls equilibrium and balance and allows humans to move correctly. It coordinates the muscles and joins so they can work together. The occipital lobe controls vision. It is located at the very back part of the brain and affects how humans judge everything visual, from how something moves to how colors register. Two signs that something is wrong in this area of the brain are if the person experiences hallucinations or perceives colors differently. A part of the brain called the temporal lobe controls a very important part of a person: memories."

The medulla lies next to the spinal cord and controls functions outside conscious control, such as breathing and blood flow. In other words, the medulla controls essential functions. The pons affects activities such as sleeping, waking, and dreaming. The cerebellum controls balance and coordination of movement. Damage to the cerebellum impairs fine motor skills, so a person with an injury in this area would have trouble playing the guitar or typing a term paper. The Midbrain The midbrain is the part of the brain that lies between the hindbrain and the forebrain. The midbrain helps us to locate events in space. It also contains a system of neurons that releases the neurotransmitter dopamine."

"text": "\"The Vagus Nerve - Core Piece of the Autism Puzzle - Part 1 - What is this and why is it important? Posted by Susan Bennett, Autism Coach on March 20, 2015The vagus nerve is the longest of twelve pairs of nerves that originate in the brain, serving as the brain's central command in the fight against stress, inflammation and toxicity. The vagus helps regulate our \"\"fight or flight\"\" response, digestion, detoxification, various aspects of heart rate and blood pressure. Recent research indicates it also regulates our immune system and provides us with a neurological infrastructure that determines many of our emotional responses, enabling us to empathize with, bond with, communicate with and relate to others. The longest nerve the body, the vagus nerve begins at brainstem, located near the base of the skull, and has branches which extend throughout the head and two branches which travel down the each side of the neck and extend throughout the body. It actually consists of nerve pairs; one nerve sends and the other nerve receives information. When it is under-active and/or under-developed, it is turning out to be one of the major contributors to symptoms of autism. It is part of what is called the autonomic nervous system, which automatically regulates functions that our mind does not consciously control. The Autonomic Nervous System - Your Body on Autopilot The simplified diagram below shows some of the areas of the body the vagus nerve interacts with. It is part of the autonomic nervous system."

The different parts of the brain communicate with each other to carry out the desired movement. If damage occurs to one part of the brain that affects movement, it can result in mobility problems and alter the motor line of communication. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Cerebellum One area highly involved in movement is the cerebellum, which is the second largest part of the brain and is located at the back of the brain. According to the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, the cerebellum's main function is to coordinate movements by positioning and controlling the muscles in reaction to sensory input. The cerebellum is also a storage area for procedural memories, which are memories of motor skills. The Centre for Neuro Skills adds that the cerebellum controls balance and equilibrium. Motor Cortex The motor cortex affects many of the movement abilities of the body. The Canadian Institutes of Health Research state that the motor cortex is made up of three parts: the primary motor cortex (located in area four of the precentral gyrus), the pre-motor area and the supplementary motor area, the latter two of which are located in area six. The primary motor cortex controls muscle contractions on the same side of the body."

"text": "3.2 Our Brains Control Our Thoughts, Feelings, and Behavior Previous Next Learning Objectives Describe the structures and function of the “old brain” and its influence on behavior. Explain the structure of the cerebral cortex (its hemispheres and lobes) and the function of each area of the cortex. Define the concepts of brain plasticity, neurogenesis, and brain lateralization. If you were someone who understood brain anatomy and were to look at the brain of an animal that you had never seen before, you would nevertheless be able to deduce the likely capacities of the animal. This is because the brains of all animals are very similar in overall form. In each animal the brain is layered, and the basic structures of the brain are similar (see Figure 3.6 “The Major Structures in the Human Brain” ). The innermost structures of the brain—the parts nearest the spinal cord—are the oldest part of the brain, and these areas carry out the same the functions they did for our distant ancestors. The “old brain” regulates basic survival functions, such as breathing, moving, resting, and feeding, and creates our experiences of emotion. Mammals, including humans, have developed further brain layers that provide more advanced functions—for instance, better memory, more sophisticated social interactions, and the ability to experience emotions. Humans have a very large and highly developed outer layer known as the cerebral cortex (see Figure 3.7 “Cerebral Cortex” ), which makes us particularly adept at these processes."

"text": "cerebellum ( ‘little brain’ ): an intricately corrugated ball of nervous tissue that lies under the rear end of the cerebral hemispheres and is attached to the brain stem by huge bundles of nerve fibres, the cerebellar peduncles, which carry information to and from other parts of the brain. The cerebellum makes up more than one-tenth of the volume of the human brain. The basic circuitry of nerves within it is essentially similar in all vertebrates and during evolution it has changed much less in size, relative to the body, than have the cerebral hemispheres. These facts suggest that it has some essential, basic function in all vertebrates. Although its exact mechanisms remain unclear, its fundamental role is in the control of movement. This was clearly recognized by the seventeenth-century physician Thomas Willis in his book Cerebri Anatome (1664) and the idea can be traced back to the observations and interpretations of Galen ( c. 130–210 ad). The cerebellum comprises an outer, thin layer of grey matter — the cerebellar cortex — covering a core of white matter, within which lie three lumps of grey matter on each side of the midline (the deep cerebellar nuclei). Closest to the midline is the fastigial nucleus and furthest from it is the dentate nucleus, with the interpositus nucleus between. The surface area of the cortex is greatly augmented by folds that run across from side to side — deep ones that divide the surface into ten lobules, and numerous shallower ones cutting each lobule into folia. If the cortex were flattened out, it would be a ribbon much longer than it is wide."

"text": "The Nervous System57 Incredibly Easy Q&As to Study the Nervous System The Integrative Function of the Nervous System1. What physiological systems are known as integrative systems? What is the reason for this designation? Both nervous system and the endocrine system are considered integrative systems. This designation stems from the fact that both systems control and regulate biological functions and act at distance, receiving information from organs and tissues and sending effector commands (nervous impulses or hormones) to organs and tissues, thus integrating the body. Central and Peripheral Nervous Systems More Bite-Sized Q&As Below2. Which structures make up the nervous system? The structures that form the nervous system can be divided into the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The organs of the CNS are the brain (cerebrum, brainstem and cerebellum) and spinal cord. The PNS is made of nerves and neural ganglia."

"text": "Brain Anatomy and Function September 1, 2017 By Cindy Schmidler 4 Comments The central nervous system (CNS) includes the brain and the spinal cord. The CNS is protected by bones and the meninges (the dura mater, arachnoid and pia mater). Cerebrospinal fluid cushions the CNS from damage. There are 86 main nerves branching off from the CNS – 12 pairs of cranial nerves that branch off from the brain and 31 pairs of spinal nerves that branch off from the spinal cord. The brain, which is housed in and protected by the bones of the skull, makes up all parts of the central nervous system above the spinal cord. A human brain can weigh up to 3 pounds and is one of the largest organs of the body. Like the spinal cord, the brain is made of mainly gray matter and white matter arranged in distinct layers. The top of the brain appears as a soggy, pinkish-gray mass that looks like a walnut.

"text": "The Nervous System [Print This Page]Teacher Pages The nervous system allows for sensing, response, and control. Response by the nervous system is accomplished by motor control. ( Contrast this response with the chemical control used by the endocrine system. ) How does the nervous system accomplish this? How are messages transmitted throughout the organism and how are the messages interpreted? How does the organism respond? Environmental (internal or external to the body) messages ( stimuli) are received, transmitted, and interpreted by the functional unit of the nervous system—the neuron. Appropriate responses are carried out by effectors (a muscle or gland). The Neuron The neuron, a nerve cell, is the functional unit of the nervous system that carries the impulse (the message) to the appropriate part of the nervous system or interprets the impulse and allows a response. There are three types of neurons and each has different functions.1) sensory neurons —receive impulses and carry them from the sense organs to the spinal cord or brain.2) interneurons —connect sensory and motor neurons and interpret the impulse; only in the brain and spinal cord.3) motor neurons —carry impulses from the brain and spinal cord to muscles or glands The Response Mechanism When a stimulus is received by a sensory neuron, the impulse (or message) is carried through fibrous extensions called dendrites to the cell body."

The coat of arms depicts a Mexican golden eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus devouring a rattlesnake. To the people of Tenochtitlan this would have strong religious connotations, but to the Europeans, it would come to symbolize the triumph of good over evil (with the snake sometimes representative of the serpent in the Garden of Eden ). The Seal of the United Mexican States is the seal used by the government of Mexico in any official documents issued by the federal, state or municipal authorities. It is a modified version of the national coat of arms, with the addition of the full official name of the country Estados Unidos Mexicanos, in a semi-circular accommodation in the upper part of the seal. Current and past Mexican peso coinage have had the seal engraved on the obverse of all denominations. The Mexican coat of arms is very important to the people of Mexico.

"text": "\"Arts & Humanities Genealogy Where does the last name Moreno come from?3 following 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Moreno Name Meaning and History Spanish, Portuguese, and Jewish (Sephardic): nickname for someone with dark hair and a swarthy complexion, from Spanish and Portuguese moreno ‘dark-haired’, a word of uncertain origin, probably from Late Latin maurinus, a derivative of classical Latin Maurus ‘Moor’. Compare Moore 2. http://www.ancestry.com/facts/Moreno-fam... Moreno Surname This surname MORENO is of two-origins. It was a Spanish and Portugese nickname for someone with dark hair and a swarthy complexion, originally derived from the Latin MAURINUS. The name was also borne by Sefardic Jews, probably of the same origin as the Spanish and Portugese names. It has been suggested that this was a name for a Rabbi, from the Hebrew honorific title MORENU 'our master'. Spanish surnames are to be found from as early as the mid-9th century, as patronymics, and hereditary surnames seem to have come in slightly later than in England and France. In many cases the names of the traditional major saints of the Christian church were used, although many of the common Spanish surnames are derived from personal names of Germanic origin. For the most part these names are characteristically Hispanic. They derive from the language of the Visigoths, who controlled Spain between the mid-5th and early 8th centuries."

A crest is the device the device/object attached to the top of the helm (helmet). The coat-of-arms is the armiger's device portrayed upon the shield. The crest is one component of a coat-of-arms, which can be used as a simplified symbol when the full coat-of-arms is too detailed e.g. on engraved cutlery. Confusion between the priviledge or right to have a coat-of-arms and the actual arms has lead to an understandable wide-spread misapprehension. The actual coat-of-arms is the personal property of the holder. The right to bear arms is heritable, so the sons and in some circumstances, daughters of the person who has had arms granted to them, can also use a coat-of-arms. However, only one person owns a particular coat-of-arms, so during his lifetime, sons use a slightly different version of the arms."

Both groups were territorial and aggressively defended their communities against nomadic tribes that wandered throughout the region. The Yaquis inhabited the eastern part of Sonora near Mar de Cortés, and the Mayos lived primarily in the southern part of the state and established an important cultural center in what is now the city of Guaymas.

"text": "Family Surnames • Genealogy Resources • Research Tips The Real Truth Behind Coats of Arms and Family Crests Share Pin +1 Tweet Email1.7KOne of the first things a lot of beginning genealogists want to explore is their family crest or coat of arms. It is a mistaken belief among beginners that every family has one of these somewhere in their ancient history, and newcomers to the genealogical field naturally want to celebrate their family by bringing their coat of arms back to life. This is a wonderful ambition, and if your family truly does have a coat of arms or crest that you are entitled to use, you should learn about it and display it proudly. However, actually having a coat of arms or family crest is much rarer than you might imagine. Having the hereditary right to use it is even rarer. While there are many companies out there that are willing to sell you all kinds of merchandise with your supposed “family crest” on it, the vast majority of these companies are not engaged in legitimate genealogical research. The coat of arms or crest you get may or may not belong to your family (and it might be made up completely by the company selling it to you), or you may not have the hereditary right to use it. If you really want to know something about heraldry (the art of studying coats of arms and crests) and how it applies to your family, read on. It’s a fascinating tale. What is a Coat of Arms?"

Most people in our society do not understand the history of folklorico and how it came about, especially when we do not live in the country where it started. I attempt to present the beginning of folklorico, its growth, and how it will grow in the future. The United States is known as \"\"the melting pot\"\" because of the many different cultures it is made of. Oddly enough, when it comes to Mexicans, it is little known that they are mostly Mestizos, or of indigenous and European bloodlines that is how folklorico came to be. I will focus on Ballet Folklorico de Mexico which is a folkloric ballet ensemble in Mexico City. For the past five decades folkloric dancers have performed dances in costumes that reflect the traditional culture of Mexico ( http://www.houstonculture.org/index.html) . The most famous dance group in Mexico is, Ballet Folklorico de Amalia Hernandez, this group has been in international competitions and has won many times. Folklorico is composed of Ballet steps and musical pieces reflecting various regions and folk music genres of Mexico. The Background of Folklorico and how it migrated to the United States is what most interests me."

"text": "Gringo Definition: Origin and Meaning Last updated: 10th January, 2018As soon as you step foot in Latin America, there’s a good chance that your nationality will take second place to your new classification: gringo. As a foreigner, the locals will often tag you with this broad and flexible label ( gringo, male; gringa, female; gringos, plural), even if your physical appearance is not so different from theirs. Despite the widespread usage of the term, its actual definition, particularly its origin, is the subject of some debate…HOW TO PERU TRAVEL TIP: Save money and stay safe when going to/from Lima Airport by using the Official Bus service inside the Airport called Airport Express Lima Quick Tip: If traveling to or from Lima Airport, it is strongly recommended to use the luxury Airport Express Lima bus to get to or from your hotel. Safer and cheaper than a taxi with no baggage limit as well as Free Wi Fi and USB chargers onboard, it is ideal for travelers. Gringo Origins There are three main theories as to the origin of the word gringo. The popularity of each etymological theory does not necessarily reflect its plausibility: Battle of Churubusco, 1847 – U. S.–Mexican War Green coats / Green, go!This theory stems from the U. S.–Mexican War of 1846 to 1848. Here, gringo derives from the Mexican mispronunciation of “green coats” or a contraction of “green, go!” – both of which refer to the green coats worn by U. S. soldiers. I have heard this etymological explanation more than any other during my travels in South America, with “green, go!” being the most common."

While the Banner of Arms was the ceremonial ensign of the monarch, the Royal Standard or Royal Flag was the ensign design for common use by Spanish ships and military fortification. Not truly having an official Spanish National flag, many early explorers, including Christopher Columbus, used the Spanish Royal Standard to represent the King and Queen of Spain. There are today many variations manufactured of this royal standard, one of which is shown here. Cross of Burgundy Cross of Burgundy Flag 1506-1843The Cross of Burgundy Flag, introduced in the reign of Charles I of Spain (Holy Roman Emperor Charles V), was used by Spain between 1506-1701 as a naval ensign, and until 1843 as a land military flag. It was the flag carried by most of the Conquistadors in their exploration and conquest of the New World during this period of time. It represents the cross on which Saint Andrew was crucified. Although Nueva España (New Spain) never actually had a flag of its own, this standard was used to represent army groups, army headquarters, or commanders of such groups (captain-generals, etc.) in the area after Cortez's conquest of Mexico.

"text": "The Mexican flag (Detailed page)Summary Items Colours of the flag - Coat of arms Bibliography The colours of the flag Beyond contingent explanations, the colours of the flag have a penetrating signification 1, which reinforces the meaning of the coat of arms located in the flag centre: Green symbolizes Hope, the deep Aspiration to return to the unity of the being, who is torn between his different contradictory aspirations and to the union of the beings gathered under the same banner. White depicts Faith of the beings ready to undertake this return voyage, the total abandonment to the divine powers symbolizing unity and the trust without limits in Gods and oneself. Red means divine Love, the Love that supports us alongside the way towards the deep reality of our nature in which we are only one. The coat of arms For several Central America peoples, the shape of the sacred barbary fig (“peyotl” or “hicouri”) symbolizes the “World Egg”. An eagle holding a serpent in its beak is emerging from it. The fight between the eagle and serpent can be found in many traditions. In the Indian tradition for instance, the mythical bird Garuda, an eagle originally, is often represented as fighting Naga. Elsewhere, it is replaced by other serpent destructor birds such as the ibis, the stork or the heron. The eagle and its enemy symbolize the opposition between Heaven and Earth, between the angel representing the superior states and the demon assimilated to the inferior states, between the celestial and the infernal world. No wonder that one of the principal symbols of the Egyptian God Toth, the ibis destructor of reptiles, became a symbol of the Christ."

The Mexican coat of arms depicts a part of the founding myth of Tenochtitlan, which is Mexico City today: According to the legend, the sun god Huitzilopochtli told the Mexica (Aztec people) to found their city in the place where they would find an eagle devouring a snake on a cactus. ( Edit: it doesn't seem to be clear that it should be a snake, sources differ on this. Snakes were associated with the winged snake god Quetzalcoatl, so it is unlikely to be a snake in the original myth, the Spanish however made it a snake to fit Christian symbolism). The christian Europeans put their own symbolism into the picture, a triumph of good, symbolized by the eagle, over evil, symbolized by the snake (think the snake tempting Adam and Eve to defy God).940 Views · View Upvoters Related Questions More Answers Below What kind of eagle is on the Mexican flag?

The flag colors are the same colors of the national liberation army in Mexico. Visual Description The Mexican flag is a rectangle with three vertical stripes: green, white and red from left to right. The stripes are of equal width. In the center of the flag is a design of an eagle, perched on a cactus, eating a snake. The cactus in on an island in a lake, and beneath is a garland of green leaves and a red, white and green ribbon. Without the coat of arms, the Mexican flag looks like the Italian flag, with the same colors in the same order, although the Mexican flag is longer and the colors are a darker shade. History of the Flag The national liberation army, known as the Army of the Three Guarantees, officially formed after the struggle for independence. Their flag was white, green and red with three yellow stars. The first flag of the new Mexican republic was modified from the army's flag."

"text": "Printer Friendly Version Middle Ear Fluid In Children The ear has three parts-the outer ear, the middle ear, and the inner ear. The outer ear includes the part outside the head and the ear canal. The eardrum is a small circle of tissue about the size of a fingertip at the end of the ear canal. The middle ear is the space, usually filled with air, behind the eardrum. When a child has middle ear fluid, this is where it is found. A small tube-the Eustachian tube-connects the middle ear to the back of the nose. Three tiny bones (the malleus, incus, and stapes) connect the eardrum through the middle ear to the inner ear. The inner ear is further inside the head and is important for hearing and balance. In a healthy ear, sound waves travel through the ear canal and make the eardrum move back and forth. This makes the three bones in the middle ear move."

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) OTC Cough and Cold Medicines and My Child Home Diseases and Conditions Ear Infection Condition Ear Infection Share Print Table of Contents Advertisement Overview What is an ear infection? An ear infection, also called a middle ear infection, is one of the most common conditions among children. They shouldn’t be ignored. Untreated ear infections can lead to unnecessary pain and permanent hearing loss for your child. An ear infection occurs in the middle ear and is caused by a bacterial or viral infection. It creates pressure in the small space between the eardrum and the back of the throat called the Eustachian tube. Smaller Eustachian tubes are more sensitive to pressure, which causes the ear pain. A child’s adenoids (the little bits of tissue that hang above the tonsils at the back of the throat) can block the opening of Eustachian tubes because they are larger in young children. Eustachian tubes do not work properly when filled with drainage from the nose or mucous from allergies, colds, bacteria, or viruses because the drainage presses on the eardrum, which is what causes the pain. A chronic ear infection can last for 6 weeks or more, but most go away on their own after 3 days."

"text": "Fluids Behind the Eardrum in Adults: Causes & Treatment It is quite common that children are found with fluid behind eardrum, adults though seldom diagnosed with the same symptom, it sometimes does occur. Fluid behind eardrum, known medically as otitis media with effusion (OME), is the accumulation of fluid, often in the middle of the ear, with no sign or other symptoms of an ear infection. This can occur in one or both ears, and can sometimes last for prolonged periods of time, although this is more often the case in adults than in children. This condition can be associated with a feeling of discomfort within the ear, or a feeling of fullness. In some cases, moderate to severe hearing loss can occur. On most occasions, the condition will self-resolve after around 12 weeks, meaning no significant intervention will be required. What Are the Symptoms of Otitis Media with Effusion in Adults? Although ear infections are commonly associated with children, they can also affect the adult populous. In most cases, Eustachian tube dysfunction is often considered to be the primary factor causing the complication. That being said, the condition has also been linked with allergy, antecedent upper respiratory tract infections, or barotrauma (e.g. air travel)."

"text": "Listenen español Infecciones en el oído medio y colocación de tubos de ventilación Why Surgery? Many kids get middle ear infections (known as otitis media, or OM), usually when they're between 6 months and 2 years old. Some kids are particularly likely to get them because of environmental and lifestyle factors (like attendance at a group childcare, secondhand tobacco smoke exposure, and taking a bottle to bed). Although these infections are fairly easy to treat, a child who has multiple ear infections that do not get better easily or has signs of hearing loss or speech delay may be a candidate for ear tube surgery. During this surgery, small tubes are placed in the eardrums to ventilate the area behind the eardrum and keep the pressure equalized to atmospheric pressure in the middle ear. About Otitis Media The middle ear is an air-filled cavity located behind the eardrum. When sound enters the ear, it makes the eardrum vibrate, which in turn makes tiny bones in the middle ear vibrate. This transmits sound signals to the inner ear, where nerves relay the signals to the brain. A small passage leading from the middle ear to the back of the nose — called the eustachian tube — equalizes the air pressure between the middle ear and the outside world. ( When your ears pop while yawning or swallowing, the eustachian tubes are adjusting the air pressure in the middle ears. )"

The doctor will likely use a lighted instrument (an otoscope) to look at the ears, throat and nasal passage. He or she will also likely listen to your child breathe with a stethoscope. Pneumatic otoscope An instrument called a pneumatic otoscope is often the only specialized tool a doctor needs to make a diagnosis of an ear infection. This instrument enables the doctor to look in the ear and judge whether there is fluid behind the eardrum. With the pneumatic otoscope, the doctor gently puffs air against the eardrum. Normally, this puff of air would cause the eardrum to move. If the middle ear is filled with fluid, your doctor will observe little to no movement of the eardrum. Additional tests Your doctor may perform other diagnostic tests if there is any doubt about a diagnosis, if the condition hasn't responded to previous treatments, or if there are other persistent or serious problems.

What is Autism Spectrum Disorder? Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder defined by persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction, accompanied by restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities. The signs of ASD are usually evident in early childhood. Though it is still considered a lifelong diagnosis, with appropriate early intervention, individuals with ASD can lead productive, inclusive, and fulfilling lives. Many children with ASD do well in school, participate in activities they enjoy, go on to college, and are employed in adulthood. For most parents and professionals, ASD can be a very puzzling and complex disorder. Though a great deal of its mystery has yet to be uncovered, we know much more about it than we did 10 years ago. Just as our understanding has evolved over the years, so has the way we define, diagnose, and treat ASD."

Improved diagnostic tools, the advent of atypical antipsychotic medications and the development of phase-specific psychosocial treatments have made intervention research in people at ultra-high risk for developing schizophrenia or a related psychotic disorder possible. Preliminary data suggest that low doses of atypical antipsychotic medications augmented by psychosocial treatments may delay the onset of psychosis in some individuals. Findings support further research for the establishment of best-practice standards.

"text": "Contents Disable Glossary Links < Prev Next >6 INTRODUCTION TO PSYCHOLOGICAL AND PSYCHOSOCIAL INTERVENTIONSGo to:6.1. INTRODUCTIONA range of psychological and psychosocial interventions for depression have been shown to relieve the symptoms of the condition and there is growing evidence that psychosocial and psychological therapies can help people recover from depression in the longer-term ( NICE, 2004a ). However, not everyone responds to treatment and of those people who do, not everyone remains free of depression in the long term. Therefore there is a need to offer a range of psychological and psychosocial interventions and for further clinical innovation focused on improving treatment outcomes. People with depression typically prefer psychological and psychosocial treatments to medication ( Prins et al., 2008) and value outcomes beyond symptom reduction that include positive mental health and a return to usual functioning ( Zimmerman et al., 2006 ). Significant national initiatives are beginning to explore how to maximise the accessibility, acceptability and cost effectiveness of psychological and psychosocial interventions. This chapter sets out how these treatments have emerged as evidence-based approaches and some of the contextual issues that are important in translating recommendations based on clinical research to people presenting to the NHS with depression. Research recommendations that, if funded, could inform the recommendations of future clinical guidelines, are made in Chapter 8."

Response to Intervention (RTI) is a multi-tier instructional and service delivery approach designed to improve student learning by providing high-quality instruction, intervening early with students at risk for academic difficulty, allocating instructional resources according to students’ needs, and distinguishing between students whose reading difficulties stem from experiential and instructional deficits as opposed to a learning disability. A central component of all RTI models is early screening of all students to identify those at risk for academic difficulties. RTI draws on ideas of prevention science. In a prevention approach, schools do not wait for students to fail before coming to their assistance. Instead, they screen all students to identify those who, despite a strong general education program (Tier 1), are on a path to failure. To have any chance of escaping this adverse path, students must obtain immediate help (Tier 2). When RTI is implemented fully, reading, math, writing, and behavior screening is conducted with all students and those determined to be at risk for developing difficulties in one or more of these areas receive targeted evidence-based interventions."

Developmental Delays -vs- Learning Disabilities By Ann Logsdon Updated June 12, 2017Share Pin Email Print Tetra Images - Rob Lewine/Brand X Pictures/Getty Images All children develop at different rates. Some children have delays in development and require early intervention. In most children, delays in mental and physical development will improve. Some have significant delays -- developmental delays -- that may indicate possible future learning disabilities. How are Developmental Delays Different From Other Learning Disabilities? Delays in development differ from other types of learning disabilities in that they may improve with intervention and may eventually disappear. For that reason, it is important to be aware of early signs of a problem. Some delays and disabilities are linked to exposure to risk factors during the prenatal period. Fortunately, some of these disabilities are preventable through appropriate prenatal health care and healthy prenatal lifestyle choices."

CP is the most common motor disability in childhood. Cerebral means having to do with the brain. Palsy means weakness or problems with using the muscles. CP is caused by abnormal brain development or damage to the developing brain that affects a person’s ability to control his or her muscles. The symptoms of CP vary from person to person. A person with severe CP might need to use special equipment to be able to walk, or might not be able to walk at all and might need lifelong care. A person with mild CP, on the other hand, might walk a little awkwardly, but might not need any special help. CP does not get worse over time, though the exact symptoms can change over a person’s lifetime. All people with CP have problems with movement and posture."

Your child has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and you have asked for help. This is an important turning point in a long journey. For some families, it may be the point when, after a long search for answers, you now have a name for something you didn’t know what to call, but you knew existed. Perhaps you suspected autism, but held out hope that an evaluation would prove otherwise. Many families report mixed feelings of sadness and relief when their child is diagnosed. You may feel completely overwhelmed. You may also feel relieved to know that the concerns you have had for your child are valid."

Wachs The author is affiliated with the Department of Psychological Sciences at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, USA. Abstract Although the reduction of child morbidity and the promotion of physical growth are important and necessary aspects of child development, these criteria by themselves do not define the adequacy of children’s development. There are also behavioural-developmental criteria that emphasize the promotion of competence. The competent individual is one who can effectively adapt to and interact with his or her environment. Traits that define individual competence fall into five domains: cognitive skills, temperament/ personality, motivation, self-perceptions, and interpersonal style. These domains are not completely independent, and there is at least partial overlap. The expression of individual differences in competence is partially moderated by context. Further, not all children achieve competence. Over time some children fall further and further behind their peers in their developmental course."

It is an ongoing major or minor delay in the process of development. If your child is temporarily lagging behind, that is not called developmental delay. Delay can occur in one or many areas—for example, gross or fine motor, language, social, or thinking skills. Developmental Delay is most often a diagnosis made by a doctor based on strict guidelines. Usually, though, the parent is the first to notice that their child is not progressing at the same rate as other children the same age. If you think your child may be “slow,” or “seems behind,” talk with your child's doctor about it. In some cases, your pediatrician might pick up a delay during an office visit. It will probably take several visits and possibly a referral to a developmental specialist to be sure that the delay is not just a temporary lag."

This week’s “Got Questions?” answer comes from Lauren Elder, Ph D, Autism Speaks assistant director of dissemination science This is a common question with a complicated answer because there can be a lot of variation in how and when the symptoms of autism become apparent. It’s never too early for a general developmental evaluation. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, pediatricians should screen babies and young children for developmental delays at every checkup. Many of these delays – including the language and social delays associated with autism – can be identified at 18 months, if not earlier. ( See Learn the Signs . ) Understand the Changeable First Year As for autism, studies demonstrate that behavioral signs can begin to emerge as early as 6 to 12 months. However, most professionals who specialize in diagnosing the disorder won’t attempt to make a definite diagnosis until 18 months."

But even people who are open-minded about IQ often puckishly say \"\"So what?\"\" It doesn't really matter if the IQ is the main determinant of earnings, or economic growth, or anything else. All that matters is whether the marginal effect of policy on the variables we can change is worth its marginal cost. Thus, it doesn't really matter if IQ matters. But this response overlooks a basic point. If IQ matters, then analyses that ignore IQ will typically overstate the marginal effect of other variables. Simple example: If you statistically estimate the effect of schooling on earnings without controlling for IQ, you get a large coefficient. In the NLSY, for example, you'll find that one more year of school raises earnings by 12.6%. If you control for IQ, however, the coefficient on education plummets to 7.5%."

Earmarks come in two varieties: Hard earmarks, or \"\"hardmarks\"\", found in legislation, and soft earmarks, or \"\"softmarks\"\", found in the text of congressional committee reports. Hard earmarks are legally binding, whereas soft earmarks are not but customarily are acted upon as if they were binding.

"text": "\"ISE01/14-15Subject: financial affairs, earmarked tax, general revenue, taxation The Government has previously published the findings of the commissioned study on \"\"Future Development of Retirement Protection in Hong Kong\"\" conducted by The University of Hong Kong. In its research report, it suggests introducing a payroll old age tax as one of the capital sources to fund the proposed cash grant for all Hong Kong permanent residents aged 65 and above. Payroll tax is commonly seen in overseas places such as the United States and Sweden where payroll tax is used to support social insurance programmes. In this respect, payroll tax can be considered as a type of earmarked tax. What is earmarked tax? In general terms, earmarked tax means that all or a fixed portion of revenues from a particular tax or levy 1 are kept separate from general revenue and used exclusively for a specific government expenditure programme or specific activity. Usually, there is some degree of association between the tax revenue source and the programme or activity being funded. For instance, in some European countries, there are environmental/green taxes earmarked for financing environmental protection activities; in the United States, there is gasoline tax for highway construction and maintenance; and in New South Wales of Australia, there is parking space levy for financing public transport related projects. 2 There are also cases where the tax revenue source and the programme being funded have weaker association, e.g. in Thailand, a fixed portion of tobacco and alcohol tax is used to fund public broadcasting service. This practice is contrasted with the funding of government expenditures from general revenue."

"text": "February 6, 2012Defining an earmark Definitions of what constitutes a congressional earmark vary widely. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines earmarks as “legislation that allocates a specified amount of money for a specific project, program or organization.” The House and Senate call them provisions that are tailored to specific programs or locations outside the “formula-driven or competitive award process.” The White House’s Office of Management and Budget says earmarks are provisions that curtail “the ability of the executive branch to manage its statutory and constitutional responsibilities pertaining to the funds allocation process. ”No matter who is defining it, “earmark” has become a dirty word on Capitol Hill, conjuring up abuses where projects benefited few, such as the infamous “Bridge to Nowhere” in Alaska. Last year, a congressionally imposed moratorium on earmarks went into effect, banning members from using legislation to direct money to specific projects or specific organizations in their districts. Last week, the Senate defeated a proposal to outlaw earmarks but extended the moratorium by a year. Today, many lawmakers avoid using the word at all costs, while still trying to insert targeted spending provisions into bills. These days, such provisions are called by many names: “member directed spending,” “plus ups,” “budget enhancements,” “additions” and “programmatic adjustments.” Lawmakers also call agency officials directly and ask them, in the absence of any legislation, to put money toward specific projects."

"text": "\"Humanities ›Issues What is Earmark Spending in the US Congress? When Congress Spends So Much On So Few Share Flipboard Email Print How the Government Spends Your Money. Tetra Images/Getty Imagesby Robert Longley Updated October 04, 2017Earmark spending; also called \"\"pork barrel\"\" spending, is funding inserted into the annual federal budget by individual legislators in the U. S. Congress for special projects or purposes of interest to their constituents. Gaining the approval of earmark spending projects typically helps the sponsoring legislator earn the votes of his or her constituents. The Government’s Definition of Earmark Spending A 2006 report from the Congressional Research Service (CRS), the research arm of Congress, on earmark spending noted that there was no single accepted “definition of the term earmark accepted by all practitioners and observers of the appropriations process…” However, the CRS did conclude that two types of earmarks were common: hard earmarks, or “hardmarks,” found in the actual text of legislation, and soft earmarks, or “softmarks,” found in the reports of congressional committees on legislation. Appearing in enacted laws, hard earmark spending provisions are legally binding, while soft earmarks are not legally binding, they are often treated as if they were during the legislative process. According to the CRS, the most commonly accepted definition of earmark spending is, “Provisions associated with legislation (appropriations or general legislation) that specify certain congressional spending priorities or in revenue bills that apply to a very limited number of individuals or entities. Earmarks may appear in either the legislative text or report language (committee reports accompanying reported bills and joint explanatory statement accompanying a conference report).”Often \"\"tucked\"\" as amendments into the larger annual appropriations bills of the federal budget, earmark spending projects often come under criticism as being \"\"rushed through\"\" Congress without the full debate and scrutiny devoted to the larger parent bill. Perhaps most significantly, earmark spending often results in the expenditure of large sums of taxpayer money to help a limited number of people. For example, in 2005, $223 million was earmarked by the Senate Committee on Appropriations chair Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) to build a bridge to connect an Alaskan town of 8,900 to an island with a population of 50, saving a short ferry ride."

"text": "Photo: Jessica Kourkounis Students play during recess at Anna Lane Lingelbach Elementary School in Philadelphia.aaa-+What is a millage rate? Millage is a term that represents the tax rate levied on real estate or other property. A mill is one thousandth of a dollar, or one tenth of one cent. The millage rate is the number of dollars of tax assessed for each $1,000 of property value. A rate of 10 mills means that $10 in tax is levied on every $1,000 in assessed value. A school district typically will set the millage rate each spring as it calculates what it needs to fund its final budget. Some years, the rate stays the same; other years, there's an increase. What else goes into setting my tax bill? The other key figure is the assessed valuation of property. Every property has one."

The U. S. Social Security program was adopted some 40 to 50 years after those of most Western European nations. The United States thus had the opportunity to choose from a number of models and clearly chose to follow the classic social insurance path of such countries as Austria, France, and Germany, which in 1935 already had considerable experience administering earnings-related, employer/worker-financed old-age pension programs. Although based on the traditional social insurance model, OASDI evolved in certain unique ways, including the rejection over the course of succeeding decades of any reliance on general revenue financing, the importance attached to long-range (75-year) actuarial projections, and the relative generosity of benefits for survivors and dependents.

"text": "\"What is 'Earmarking'Earmarking means to set money aside for a specific purpose. Next Up Speculative Capital Bridge Financing Bridge Loan Congress BREAKING DOWN 'Earmarking'The phrase has an agricultural origin: farmers would cut recognizable notches in their livestock's ears to mark the animals as belonging to them. In its most basic sense, to earmark is to flag something for a specific purpose. In practice, it generally means to set funds aside for a particular project. A company might earmark a sum to spend on upgrading its IT system, or a city government might earmark the proceeds of a municipal bond issue to pay for a new road or bridge. Bankruptcy In bankruptcy law, the earmarking doctrine allows certain borrowed funds to be excluded from a bankrupt party's assets, as long as they were lent to the borrower 90 or fewer days before the bankruptcy filing and were lent with the express intention of paying a specific creditor. Earmarking ensures that the funds will go to the intended creditor, rather than being subject to claims by other creditors who have preference in the bankruptcy proceedings. The doctrine is based on the idea that, because there was no net decrease in the bankrupt party's asset base, the funds never really belonged to the bankrupt party: they \"\"borrowed from Peter to pay Paul. \"\" Congress Earmarking is a longstanding and controversial practice in the U. S. Congress, where parties have historically won support for contentious votes by offering or threatening to revoke funds for projects in particular members' districts. Absent such earmarking, funds are apportioned to agencies of the executive branch, which decide what specific projects to spend federal money on."

"text": "The Cost of Open Space: Conservation Easements Efforts to conserve land raise property rights, affordability, and tax concerns. October 2004 | By Pat Taylor A 450-acre property that stretches a mile and a half along the shores of Lake Champlain would ordinarily be snatched up within months. But Wade Weathers Jr., who listed the $10 million Vermont property in June, knows selling it will be a challenge; the seller years ago ceded development rights to a nonprofit conservation group, narrowing the possible buyer pool to those comfortable with the development restrictions. The restriction of development rights through what’s known as a conservation easement isn’t uncommon in this scenic Vermont area, with its dairy farms and expanses of undeveloped land, says Weathers, regional manager for the Vermont and Adirondacks office of Land Vest Inc. in Burlington, Vt. In fact, thanks to his work on other such properties, Weathers knows how to find and market to conservation-minded buyers. But conservation easements present a bigger headache in fast-growing parts of the country. Not only do they make properties more challenging to sell but they can hem in cities’ ability to grow. The easements are also controversial: The Internal Revenue Service has raised concerns over questionable tax structures, and real estate groups in some states have battled efforts to allocate transfer tax money to fund easements. Among property rights advocates, the concept of putting restrictions on owners’ development rights raises a red flag. Into the future with hands tied Conservation easements are one of the environmental industry’s main tools for preserving open space by taking developable land off the market."

"text": "\"The Federal Budget Process 101The complicated annual budget cycle can be difficult for outsiders to follow. The below summary helps to explain the process.15 July 2014 Matt Hourihan Tweet R&D Budget Analysis It's useful to think of the federal budget cycle in four phases. The first phase is agency planning; the second phase covers budget review by the Office of Management and Budget. These two phases together amount to the President's budget formulation. A third phase is the Congressional appropriations cycle; and the fourth and final phase is the execution of the budget by the agencies starting October 1, the beginning of the fiscal year. Altogether, it takes the machinery of government well over two years to formulate, appropriate, and execute a single fiscal year's budget. That means three budgets are in play at any given time. For instance, at the time of this writing, agencies are executing their FY 2014 budgets; Congress is grappling with FY 2015 appropriations; and federal agencies are already planning for FY 2016. Steps in the process are described below. THE PRESIDENT'S BUDGET FORMULATIONThe most public portion of the cycle is the Congressional process, typically beginning in the spring before the fiscal year starts."

"text": "Society & Culture Holidays Easter What does easter bunnys and eggs have to do with Jesus Christ?2 following 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: You'll get the usual junk answers about paganism which are based on no historical evidence whatsoever. The giving of eggs at Easter probably comes from the fact that Christians used to give them up (as well as giving up meat and dairy produce) for Lent - the 6 weeks leading up to Easter. That made eggs a sign of Easter - when you could eat them again - and a good present. The Easter Bunny was not known in most countries until US culture started its takeover bid. The idea came with German immigrants who had the idea of the Easter Hare, which in turn came from a folk tale about hares laying eggs, which in turn probably derives from the fact that hares make nests (not burrows) which look like bird's nests.greenshootuk · 9 years ago1 6 1 comment They don't, thank you very much. Rabbits and eggs are both symbols of the fertility goddess Eostre/Ishtar/Ostara. Her symbol is also the moon, in which some cultures see a rabbit instead of a face. Eggs also symbolize the moon and are the ultimate symbol of creation and new life. The basket is a symbol of the womb in which this new life is carried. The feast day is pagan and was widely celebrated way before the time of Jesus."

Ash Wednesday comes from the ancient Jewish tradition of penance and fasting. The practice includes the wearing of ashes on the head. The ashes symbolize the dust from which God made us. As the priest applies the ashes to a person's forehead, he speaks the words: \"\"Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return. \"\" Alternatively, the priest may speak the words, \"\"Repent and believe in the Gospel. \"\" Take the 1 min Ash Wed survey now Ashes also symbolize grief, in this case, grief that we have sinned and caused division from God."

"text": "\"Eye for an eye: Iranian man sentenced to have drops of acid poured onto his face for blinding his lover's husband By Michael Theodoulou for Mail Online Updated: 10:00 EDT, 12 December 2010121View comments An Iranian man who blinded his lover's husband is to suffer a similar fate in a tit-for-tat sentencing - by having acid poured into his eye. Iran’s Islamic code allows for ‘an eye-for-an-eye, a tooth-for-a-tooth’ retribution - known as 'qisas' - in cases of violent crime. The convict, named only as Mojtaba, threw acid in the face of his rival Alireza, a taxi driver, after an illicit affair with the victim’s wife, Mojdeh. Tough justice: Iran's capital, Tehran, where convicted criminals can be sentenced to an eye-for-an-eye punishment All three are 25 and live in Qom, Iran’s clerical nerve centre 60 miles south of the capital, Tehran. The grotesque penalty was passed by a lower court and upheld by Iran’s supreme court, a government daily, Iran, reported this weekend. The Qom prosecutor, Mostafa Barzegar Ganji, said the victim had used his right to qisas. ' We have asked for forensic specialists to oversee the blinding of the convict,' he added. Extreme punishments can be waived if the victim chooses to accept 'blood money' in reparation, and ‘eye for eye’ punishments are rarely carried out. Similarly in capital cases, there have been several instances in Iran and Saudi Arabia where a convicted murderer’s life has been spared at the eleventh hour when their victim’s family has shown mercy. Qisas sentences infuriate local reformists and are invariably branded as an 'abhorrent' form of 'judicial torture' by international human rights groups."

But Sarah doesn’t think so. Between the ages of 36 and 38, she underwent eight procedures to freeze her eggs. She now has an astonishing 70 of them stashed away.

"text": "Those Who Demand That We Do Not Celebrate Christmas And Easter Because It Is Pagan, Are Part Of A Cult By Ted on April 19, 2014 in Featured SHOEBAT EXCLUSIVE By Theodore Shoebat Some of the most enthusiastic, charitable and zealous people I’ve ever met are Messianic believers, and I will always hold to this view. This article is not against them at all, but against a radical sect that is lurking about searching for anyone it can devour. Amidst the billowing smoke of capricious opinions, there is a most dangerous trend. It is a trend that plunges deep into a theology that places the Jew over, and not equal to, the Gentile; that deems the Trinity as pagan; that sees all other Christians as inferior (because they supposedly lack “Jewishness”), and calls Christianity a false religion. It is a spirit that will violently emphasis that if one does not call Jesus “Yeshua,” he is worshipping a pagan god, that if he worships the Deity as God and not Yahweh, he is worshipping a false god; and that the word Christ is pagan (it falsely affirms that it is a derivative of Krishna or Zeus worship). Nevertheless, these are of the extreme branch, but elements of this has creeped into the Church, and there is no end. It doesn’t agree with Orthodox Christianity, nor does it agree with traditional Protestantism. Those who follow this trend will fabricate and believe all sorts of false historical narratives that are of a utopian and fantastical nature. They will say, for example, that the earliest Christians were just like them, observing feasts, and following a strict rule of calling God only Yahweh, and Jesus only Yeshua, just as Muslims stress that God must be called Allah and Jesus Isa. They also say that when Constantine took the throne, he murdered millions of these “original believers,” forcing them to go underground, and that their beliefs were not revived until recently."

Most people will give a pack a few shuffles with the overhand or riffle methods (where the pack is split and the two halves are interweaved). But research has shown this isn't enough to produce a sufficiently random order to make sure the card game being played is completely fair and to prevent people cheating. Scroll down for videos+3Persi Diaconis compared different shuffling techniques and said the 'riffle' shuffle (pictured), which involves cutting a deck in half and shuffling the halves into each other, is the most effective and random if done well As I wrote in a recent article about card counting, not having an effective shuffling mechanism can be a serious problem for casinos: Players have used shuffle tracking, where blocks of cards are tracked so that you have some idea when they will appear. If you are given the option to cut the pack, you try and cut the pack near where you think the block of cards you are tracking is so that you can bet accordingly. A variant on this is to track aces as, if you know when one is likely to appear, you have a distinct advantage over the casino. RELATED ARTICLESPrevious 1 Next How well can you read emotions?

"text": "\"Q: What is Lent? A: Lent is the forty day period before Easter, excluding Sundays, which begins on Ash Wednesday and ends on Holy Saturday (the day before Easter Sunday). [ This traditional ennumeration does not precisely coincide with the calendar according to the liturgical reform. In order to give special prominence to the Sacred Triduum (Mass of the Lord's Supper, Good Friday, Easter Vigil) the current calendar counts Lent as only from Ash Wednesday to Holy Thursday, up to the Mass of the Lord's Supper. Even so, Lenten practices are properly maintained up to the Easter Vigil, excluding Sundays, as before. ] Q: Why are Sundays excluded from the reckoning of the forty days? A: Because Sunday is the day on which Christ arose, making it an inappropriate day to fast and mourn our sins. On Sunday we must celebrate Christ's resurrection for our salvation. It is Friday on which we commemorate his death for our sins. The Sundays of the year are days of celebration and the Fridays of the year are days of penance."

In the United States, Easter includes the Easter Bunny and egg hunts. In El Salvador as well as many other Central American countries, it is celebrated with a much different atmosphere. Easter feels like summer. The sun shines strong in the skies, the breeze somehow fresh, somehow warm. It is definitely the middle of the dry season in El Salvador, the equivalent of summer in northern lands. Everything around, from sale signs to music, talks about sun and sand. The opportunity to enjoy beaches that are just an hour away from San Salvador is almost here. For a full week, students are out of school and have the opportunity to enjoy beaches, visit relatives and do nothing; it is almost the equivalent to spring break in the United States. However, there is one unequivocal characteristic that reminds every Salvadoran that it is not just a break, and that there is more than just sun and fun waiting for us during that week in April."

Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent, the 40 day fasting period (not including Sundays) before Easter. This year, Lent begins on Wednesday March 1 and ends of Saturday April 15, one day before Easter Sunday. The dates are dictated by the lunar calendar and change every year, although the Archbishop of Canterbury has suggested that the date be fixed for the second or third Wednesday of April, to the chagrin of traditionalists.

"text": "02 Apr 2015Easter is almost upon us and here in the UK, many of you will be looking forward to having some days off work on the first Bank Holiday weekend of the new year. In Britain, Easter occurs at a different time each year. It is celebrated on the Sunday after the first full moon following the first day of spring. This means that the Easter festival can occur on any Sunday between March 22 and April 25. Not only is Easter the end of the winter, it is also the end of Lent, traditionally a time of fasting in the Christian calendar. Many workers are treated to a long bank holiday weekend. It is therefore often a time of fun, celebration and for those who have been fasting… excess. The expression Easter derives from the Old English word Eastre or Eostre . Eostre refers to the Anglo-Saxon goddess of dawn and spring, but under Christian influence, the modern English term Easter took over the present meaning. Hence, the word was borrowed as a semantic loan which means only the word, but not its original meaning is borrowed."

"text": "\"Meaning of Easter As Christmas is celebrating Jesus' birth, Easter is celebrating Jesus' victory over death and mankind's hope for eternal life. The highlights behind the Easter story include Jesus' execution, His burial and, most importantly, His rising from death. The account of Jesus' rising from death was recorded in the most authoritative historical records, the Gospel books: Three days after His death, a few women first found His tomb empty. Then Jesus appeared in front of these women and His disciples, talking and eating with them. Out of doubts still, one disciple did not believe Jesus was alive again until he actually touched Jesus' fatal wounds. In the following forty days, hundreds of people witnessed this Jesus who had returned from death until He ascended to Heaven. Before His death, Jesus had promised eternal life to those who followed Him. If the story ended at His death, Jesus would have been no more than a religious figure with a finite life span. But the fact the Jesus rose from death demonstrated He has the power over death, and only through Him can people have hope for eternal life. Jesus said, \"\"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life\"\" (John 3:16)."

If so, you are not alone. So how did the Easter bunny get its job delivering colorful Easter eggs? After all rabbits are mammals and don’t even lay eggs. Shouldn’t the symbol for Easter be an animal that actually lays eggs, like a lizard or chicken? In Germany, rabbits have been associated with spring and fertility since the pre-Christian era. In fact, the rabbit was the symbol of Eostra—the pagan Germanic goddess of spring and fertility. This isn’t surprising when you consider that rabbits are prolific breeders."

Step 2: Choose Your Bananas When harvesting bananas, you want either a stalk that is already ripening, i.e., yellow, or a stalk that is still green but has stopped growing. When this is the case the flower is usually dying and the bananas themselves have plumped out of their young rectangular shape. These bananas are ready to come down."

They'll become delicious just like their close relative the banana (but with a sweeter flavor and a hint of pumpkin pie), but plantains do it in their own good time. Think of them as a more genteel fruit if it keeps you from hurling them into the trash in frustration. I've actually been told you can't eat raw plantains because they spoil before they ripen, which is nonsense. Head to your local supermarket. The fruit you'll most commonly find in the overripe bin is the plantain. Its peel will often be more than half green still, but most stores consider them to be spoiled after yellow and black starts creeping in because people who cook them want them very starchy. The funny part is that at this time they're probably still two or three weeks away from true ripeness. You ripen plantains by letting them sit, and sit, and then sit some more until the peels are completely black and wrinkly. When you poke them, they should yield easily to pressure (but don't prod them a lot, because you'll bruise the flesh and cause them to ferment)."

"text": "Diabetics should watch their portion size of banana to limit blood sugar increases. While it may not look like one, a banana is technically a berry, according to Purdue University. These fruits are a good source of fiber, potassium and vitamin C. Like any other carbohydrate-containing food, they can cause your blood sugar levels to increase. However, they aren't likely to cause blood sugar levels to spike as long as you watch your portion size. Carbohydrate Content A carbohydrate serving for a diabetic is 12 to 15 grams of carbs. This is the about the amount of carbohydrates in half of a medium banana. Out of the 27 grams of carbs in a medium banana, 3.1 come from fiber, which isn't broken down into glucose like other types of carbohydrates. Fiber helps slow the emptying of the stomach and thus keeps blood glucose levels from rising sharply. Glycemic Index The glycemic index measures how quickly a food causes your blood sugar to rise after you eat it. Foods with a GI score of 55 and under are considered low on the glycemic index, and unlikely to cause blood sugar spikes when consumed in moderation."

This is why this diet became so popular after Hitoshi Watanabe first presented it in his book “The morning banana diet. ”It is pretty simple: In the morning you should eat bananas only and drink water at room temperature. You can eat anything throughout the day. Is it really that simple? After a great number of unsuccessful attempts to lose weight, Watanabe decided to write down his experience with all the diet regimens he had tried previously, including the scientific knowledge of his wife Sumiko, a pharmaceutist, which she gained during the research in the field of preventive medicine. Together they created a method, the Morning Banana Diet, and gained popularity in individuals who do not really like sweating at the gym. Obese people are usually advised to workout in order to burn more calories, but Watanabe helped them avoid this morning torture and recommended a simple solution: eating a fresh banana and drinking a glass of water in the morning, and of course, you should not eat anything until your lunch. Bananas are loaded with resistant starch which actively stimulates the weight loss process. Of course, not all types of starch have equal effect."

"text": "Is It OK to Eat Bananas Before Exercising?by TOBY PENDERGRASS Sept. 11, 2017The foods you eat play a key role in your ability to perform at your best during exercise. Bananas represent a healthy source of carbohydrates and give your body the fuel that can help you stay active for longer periods, including during swim competitions or weightlifting or other physical activities. While snacking on a banana a few hours before exercise is unlikely to hinder your performance, Teens Health suggests limiting your intake in the 60 minutes prior to activity. Obtain your doctor’s opinion before starting any exercise plan. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Bananas and Exercise Fruits such as bananas are rich in carbohydrates; they contain sugars and starch that serve as primary sources of energy for your body. Your body converts the carbohydrates from bananas into sugar during the natural digestion process. The sugar then travels to your bloodstream and eventually to your cells to provide energy. Athletes who follow low-carbohydrate, fad diets often suffer weakened performance, since failure to consume sufficient amounts of bananas — and other fruits, whole grains and vegetables with carbohydrates — contributes to feeling tired and sluggish. Eating Before Your Workout You can eat a healthy breakfast or meal that contains bananas on the morning of your exercise, or at least two hours prior to physical activity. Your body also benefits from pre-workout meals that include protein, such as lean meats or fresh fish, as a complement to your carbs."

I’ll admit now, with regret, that I didn’t look as deeply into the matter as I might have. I didn’t dismiss resistant starch, but I did downplay its importance, characterizing it as “just another type of prebiotic” – important but not necessary so long as you were eating other fermentable fibers. While technically true, we’re fast learning that resistant starch may be a special type of prebiotic with a special place in the human diet. Before I go any further, though, a series of hat tips to Richard Nikoley, Tatertot Tim, and Dr. BG, whose early and ongoing research into the benefits, real-world implications, and clinical applications of resistant starch have proved to be a real asset for the ancestral health community. Oh, and I even hear tell that they’re writing a book on the subject. Interesting…In subsequent Dear Mark articles, I’ve since given resistant starch a closer, more substantial look, and today I’m going to give it the definitive guide treatment. What Is Resistant Starch?"

Some weeks the fruit bowl is empty 2 days after I go grocery shopping. Other weeks the basket is full of overly-ripe fruit at the end of the week. Oftentimes I will buy green bananas from the store just to give us a little more time before they turn brown and mushy.

"text": "\"8 Things That Can Cause Constipation More Easily Than You'd Expect (Trust Me)By Gabrielle Moss July 13 2015Like being struck by lighting or meeting your long-lost identical twin while at summer camp, most of us don't expect to ever experience severe constipation — let alone constipation so intense that it requires, um, hands-on attention. And that goes double for those of us with very chill-seeming bowels, ones that keep their cool in the face of both kale salads and chili-filled bread bowls. But this weekend, a perfect storm of factors taught me how quickly a perfectly-behaved digestive tract can go rogue. After a very busy week in which I basically treated my body like a mass grave for coffee and Snickers, I got up to go one morning and found that I was ... stuck. Yes, a piece of dry, rock-hard poop had lodged itself right in my rectum, making pooping it out or going about with my normal day an impossibility. After an enema and a very awkward call with a friend who went to medical school, I learned that there was only way to deal a solid chunk of poop trapped in your rectum: someone was going to have to move it out of the way. And in the eternal words of Destiny's Child, I depend on me. So, with the help of a rubber glove, some lubricant, and a commitment to blocking out this memory as soon as I was finished, I removed my own poop, piece by dense, dry piece, until I was unblocked, as it were. Though there are a few things I can recommend about the experience — for example, I now know that I am capable of literally anything, and could survive any number of apocalypse-type situations with great ease — I'd still like to help you avoid it. So please check out this list of eight things that can make you constipated ... a list I really wish I'd read a week ago.1."

Broad, long, graceful leaves and rapid growth-commonly reaching full size in just a few weeks-make banana a favorite plant for providing a tropical look to pool and patio areas. The development of bananas following a frost-free winter is a source of both pride and amazement to those unfamiliar with banana culture. Banana is a tropical herbaceous plant consisting of an underground corm and a trunk (pseudostem) comprised of concentric layers of leaf sheaths. At 10 to 15 months after the emergence of a new plant, its true stem rapidly grows up through the center and emerges as a terminal inflorescence which bears fruit. The flowers appear in groups (hands) along the stem and are covered by purplish bracts which roll back and shed as the fruit stem develops. The first hands to appear contain female flowers which will develop into bananas (usually seedless in edible types). The number of hands of female flowers varies from a few to more than 10, after which numerous hands of sterile flowers appear and shed in succession, followed by numerous hands of male flowers which also shed. Generally, a bract rolls up and sheds to expose a new hand of flowers almost daily. Be careful when buying field grown banana tree offshoots or offsets."

How to Counteract Too Much Salt Intake Are Capers Good for You? Savory, salty with just the right amount of crunch, dill pickles make for a satisfying snack that seems – on the surface, at least – to be a diet-friendly food. Because they're made from cucumbers, dill pickles do have some health benefits, and they are a healthier option than sugar-sweetened pickles. However, most varieties of dill pickles also pack tons of sodium, so you should eat them in moderation. The Health Benefits: Vitamin A and Vitamin KWhile pickles aren't exactly a nutritional powerhouse, they do have some modest health benefits thanks to their vitamin A and vitamin K content. Vitamin K is required for your blood to clot properly, so it plays a central role in wound healing. Vitamin A helps your cells grow properly, so it's important for processes ranging from blood cell growth to keeping your skin strong and healthy. A cup of sliced dill pickles has about 200 international units of vitamin A – just shy of 10 percent of the daily needs for women and 7 percent of the vitamin A needs for men – and 27 micrograms of vitamin K, which is about one-third the daily recommended intake for women and one-fifth the recommended intake for men."

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.

"text": "Home Health Tips Intestinal Gas Remedies Tweet Intestinal Gas Remedies Intestinal gas is a common occurrence among people with symptoms indicating a build-up of gas in the intestines, including abdominal pain, belching or burping, bloating of the stomach, or pressure in the abdomen. Production of intestinal gas is a natural process where trapped gas of carbon dioxide, hydrogen, methane, nitrogen and oxygen are released as flatulence by the body. Normally, people pass morning gas or gas while sleeping. Mostly eating certain foods causes a gas problem in the stomach. This could often lead to belching after every drink or meal. Causes There could be various causes for intestinal gas to occur; eating dairy products, beans, or foods that contain high soluble fiber in them, swallowing air while eating, or the breakdown of certain foods can causes excess gas production. The lactose contained in dairy products does not let some people digest their food properly and can entrap gas that could lead to flatulence. Moreover, the body cannot digest some complex carbohydrates on its own, and beans contain two of them raffinose and stachyose. Useful gut bacteria help digest these two components, and in the process, produce carbon dioxide, hydrogen and methane that build in the intestine and leads to flatulence. Foods that contain high levels of soluble fiber are also more difficult to digest and lead to intestinal gas."

People have been eating pickles since ancient Egyptian times. Pickles themselves make a low-calorie addition to your diet, although they are high in sodium, but frying them significantly increases their calorie and fat content. Knowing the nutrition information for a fried pickle may make you think twice before indulging in this snack food. Video of the Day Error loading player: Flash plugin failed to load Calories A deep-fried pickle is significantly higher in calories than a regular pickle. One deep-fried pickle spear contains 174 calories, while a regular pickle spear has only 5 calories. Fat Many of the calories in a deep-fried pickle come from fat. One deep-fried pickle spear contains 4 grams of total fat and 36 milligrams of cholesterol. Regular pickles are fat free.

By Tessor Jul 17, 20110 Shares 0 0 0 0Why Craving Frozen Water May Indicate Anemia Munching on ice is a soothing way to refresh your mouth and help hydrate your body with the water it needs. However, if you've noticed yourself habitually chewing ice, or craving it throughout the day, this odd hankering many indicate a more serious issue. So, what does eating ice mean? The human body is a curious contraption. Instincts often lurk behind unassuming actions, and ice grinding is no exception. The Biggest Cause of Ice Cravings Iron deficiency and anemia are the top causes of obsessive ice snacking. Mild iron deficiencies and more serious anemia disorders occur when your body experiences an iron imbalance, which results when you don't consume enough in your diet. Excessive iron usage by the body through physical exertion or diseases is another way iron is lost. Recognizing these deficiencies is clear, thanks to a well documented medical history."

Simply, a phrase is a group of words where the subject and verb are not seen together. Due to this reason a phrase only expresses a simple meaning or a concept. A sentence, however , is also a group of words where both the subject and verb can be seen. This allows it to convey a complete meaning. This is the main difference between the two.

It is a short-term headache typically linked to the rapid consumption of ice cream, ice pops, or very cold drinks. Brain freeze occurs when something extremely cold touches the upper palate (roof of the mouth). It typically happens when the weather is very hot, and the individual consumes something cold too fast. Harvard Medical School scientists who have investigated the causes of brain freeze, believe that their findings could eventually pave the way to more effective treatments for various types of headaches, such as migraine-related ones, or pain caused by brain injuries. Fast facts on ice cream headaches Here are some key points about ice cream headaches. More detail and supporting information is in the main article. The ice-cream headache is also known as a cold-stimulus headache or trigeminal headache. It is thought to be caused by rapid constriction of the blood vessels in the roof of the mouth (palate). Cures commonly involve warming the roof of the mouth to prevent this rapid constriction and relieve the headache."

If you’ve spent any time in Italy, especially in the summer, it’s hard to look anywhere and not see an Italian balancing a cono di gelato, often while balancing the omnipresent cell phone at the same time. But everyone, from suave businessmen in Armani suits to grandmothers chatting on a stroll with friends—they all eat gelato. And like the tiny shots of espresso taken from morning ’til night, it’s a part of Italian life and consumed everywhere, all-day long. Granita di espresso on a roll for breakfast anyone?‘ Gelato ‘ means ‘ frozen ‘ in Italian, so it embraces the various kinds of ice cream made in Italy, and that’s the best definition one can offer. More than most countries, food in Italy is fiercely regional: in the north, near Torino (Piedmonte), the food is very earthy with white truffles and hazelnuts appearing in various dishes. At the other end of the boot is Sicily, where the climate is far warmer so the flavors lean towards citrus and seafood. And in between are lots of villages and regions, including the Emilia-Romagna, Umbria, Campania, Tuscany, and Puglia, among others. The gelato made in the north of Italy, where it’s cooler up near the mountains, the gelato is richer, often made with egg yolks, chocolate, and most famously, with gianduja, the silky-smooth hazelnut and milk chocolate paste."

Hi Harlan,The Polar Bear is currently the top preditor above the Brooks Range in the Arctic and feeds primarily on seals. Polar Bears will also scavenge other dead sea animals such as whales. The Arctic fox is primarily a scavenger and will also feed on bird eggs, nestlings, voles and ground squirrels. It is hard to predict what will happen if the Arctic continues to warm. Grizzly Bears and red foxes have been seen duing the summer north of the Brooks range. These are potential competitors for the Polar Bear and Arctic Fox. If the ice breaks up earlier it is possible that more Polar Bears and Arctic foxes will be found on land instead of the ice."

"text": "\"Eating Ice While Pregnantby SHARON PERKINS April 15, 2015Cravings occur frequently during pregnancy, but certain cravings, like chomping on ice, may indicate something potentially more serious than a craving for pickles and ice cream. An urge to eat non-nutritive substances, a condition called pica, can occur in pregnant women with low iron levels. On the other hand, ice cravings, known medically as pagophagia, don't necessarily mean you have a nutrient deficiency, which a blood test can diagnose. While eating ice doesn't cause any harm during pregnancy, it may be hard on your teeth. Video of the Day Pica in Pregnancy The desire to eat ice is just one type of craving seen during pregnancy. Women may also crave starch, dirt, clay or paper. Women who eat ice during pregnancy may do so because it soothes the sore and irritated tongue often seen in iron deficient patients, a 2007 \"\"Los Angeles Times\"\" article suggests. An ice craving that appears in pregnancy may disappear once you deliver. Risks Pagophagia in pregnancy may affect your intake of essential nutrients, even though ice itself has no calories. A study conducted by researchers from the Universidad de Buenos Aires in Argentina and reported in the November-December issue of \"\"Nutricion Hospitalaria\"\" found that pregnant women with pagophagia had lower intake of several nutrients."

December 14, 2015 Michael Brockbank 0 Comments eating habits, health benefits, healthy eating, losing weight, progresso soups, sodium Anyone who knows me understands my attraction for Progresso soup. Eating a can of this per day last year helped me curb my eating habits and avoid fast-food and other questionable materials. However, there is a dark side to the can-of-wonder. It could be harmful if you eat nothing but Progresso soups day in and day out – unless you closely monitor your intake. Let me show you what I mean. Health Benefits Galore for Progresso Soup Even though it’s more expensive per can as opposed to Chef Boyardee, Progresso soups do have a significant amount of health benefits. For starters, it’s usually half of the calorie intake as those other canned pastas. This breaks my heart a bit because I love Chef Boyardee. But, the health benefits just aren’t there unless I eat a single serving from the can of something like Ravioli."

If you've been researching the gluten-free diet on your own—perhaps because you believe it may help with a health challenge you're facing—you may know more about it. In both instances, though, you may not realize that starting a gluten-free diet is a major dietary step to take, and one that comes with a steep learning curve. So what exactly is involved in starting and following the gluten-free diet? Just eliminate gluten, right? Well, yes. But for many people, the starting point isn't jumping right into the diet. Instead, it's figuring out exactly what gluten is so that you can begin to understand what to eliminate.

In Tena Bamegageb, or “health by eating,” the Ethiopian nutritionist Tadesse Gesese recommends lots of fruits and vegetables on your road to long life, although he’s not averse to serving some of the standard dishes of Ethiopian cuisine, albeit the ones higher in fiber and lower in fat. In the book’s dozen or so chapters, he discusses such topics as natural hygiene, the body cycle, metabolism, protein, fiber, fruits, and the importance of water in your diet. There’s a chart noting the relative amounts of vitamins A, B1, B2, C, D and E in a variety of foods, like lamb liver, chicory, spinach, sorrel, watercress and fish oil. He also explains what these vitamins do for the body. Tadesse ends his book with 15 pages of mostly non-Ethiopian recipes, often for the meals he discusses in the book. There’s a Mediterranean rice salad, a Parisian salad, an asparagus quiche, a vegetable juice cocktail, a “standard vegetable sandwich,” a fava bean tortilla, a “victory pie” (onion, celery, carrot, potato and spices), and an “energy salad” with spinach, cucumber, avocado, wheat, lentils and fava beans, all covered in a dressing made of onions, sunflower seeds and lemon juice. Vegans tend to like Ethiopian cuisine because it has a lot of vegetable dishes made without milk or butter, and the menus in Tadesse’s book will suit such gourmands. His program does offer numerous beef entrées (no chicken or fish), but always with an option for a vegetarian entrée instead. This is a testament to the Ethiopian love of beef, although there are no raw meat dishes on the menu."

The shape of pasta you choose for your Italian pasta recipe is not only important to the success of your pasta recipe but to Italians it is a very big part of their cooking tradition. For instance, trofie pasta is typically served with a basil pesto sauce. Serving a pasta punttanesca with anything but a spaghetti pasta is considered a crime and a sausage and broccoli rabe is always served with orechetti. Pasta shapes are also a creative way of livening up your pasta dishes as well as adding texture and flavor.

But when I went to college, several of my friends found my nonchalance about expiration dates a bit alarming. Despite what people may think, however, there are foods that you can eat past the expiration dates on their labels. Expiration dates aren't always accurate representations of a food's shelf life, and those labels actually cause millions of pounds of food waste every year. With one in six Americans suffering from hunger, it's startling to think of that much food getting thrown away because people are misinformed. Of course you don't want to eat something that's unsafe or could make you sick, but you can save money and reduce waste if you stop living by the date you see stamped on your yogurt cartons. Most people don't understand expiration dates or what they really mean. The common misconception is that once the sell-by date on an item has passed, the food becomes inedible, but that isn't always the case. Food products are actually labeled with expiration dates to give consumers information about the food's freshness. In other words, most foods don't \"\"go bad\"\" or become unhealthy to eat when they've reached their sell-by dates, but they will start to lose quality in taste."

It's about eating more of the best and healthiest options in each of the food groups—and eating less of the not-so-healthy ones. That means embracing whole foods like vegetables, fruits and whole grains, plus healthy proteins and fats. It also means cutting back on refined grains, pesticides, additives, preservatives, unhealthy fats and large amounts of sugar and salt. And avoiding highly refined foods with ingredients you'd need a lab technician to help you pronounce.

Some people simply use it because they enjoy the flavor and texture, however. Health food stores sometimes carry this pasta, as do major markets that have a gluten-free section. For people who are concerned about gluten in food, it is a good idea to read packages carefully to ensure that they are purchasing a gluten-free product. Just like regular wheat pasta, corn pasta is made by grinding corn into flour, blending the flour with water, and then rolling it out or extruding it to make pasta shapes. It comes in a range of shapes, including flat cut shapes like linguine and extruded shapes such as corn elbows. This pasta can also be flavored with ingredients like spinach, peppers, or sundried tomatoes, and it can be creamy white to yellow in color, depending on the type of corn used. Some companies also add food coloring to make their pasta yellow, since people associate corn with this color. Because this pasta lacks gluten, it can fall apart more readily than wheat pasta."

EBV infection typically occurs during one of two distinct time periods; the first wave of infection occurs during early childhood, before the age of 5 years, and the second wave occurs during the second and third decades of life. Most adults have been infected with EBV, and only 3 to 10% of adults older than 40 years of age have not been infected. Infectious mononucleosis is the clinical syndrome associated with acute EBV infection. EBV infection is subclinical in 90% of children. Symptomatic infectious mononucleosis is more common in adolescence and has a peak incidence between 15 and 24 years. IM is uncommon in older adults because they already have been exposed and produced antibody. , Older patients with primary EBV infection are less likely to present with pharyngitis and are more likely to have severe illness that necessitates hospitalization. EBV replicates in the oropharyngeal epithelial cells and is released into the saliva. The virus infects B lymphocytes in the underlying lymph nodes, which then disseminate the infection throughout the lymphoreticular system."

This package includes testing for Viral Capsid Antigen Ig M and Viral Capsid Antigen Ig G . Ig M antibodies usually develop shortly after infection and phase out after a couple months. In some cases, Ig M antibodies may also be present if a latent infection has reactivated. Ig G antibodies typically develop within a month of infection and persist for the rest of the person's life. Testing for both types of antibodies is useful for determining if a person has had a recent or past exposure to EBV. Epstein-Barr Virus is one of the most common viruses with as many as 95% of the people in the U. S. having been exposed by the age of 40. In many people the virus causes no symptoms. Those infected during adolescence or young adulthood may develop Infectious Mononucleosis (Mono). Common symptoms of Mono include fatigue, fever, sore throat, swollen lymph glands, and sometimes an enlarged spleen or liver."

Abstract It has been shown that Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is able to alter the immune response towards self-antigens and may enhance risk of autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in genetically predisposed individuals. In this study, we evaluated the specific antibody immune response against EBV in patients with anti-nuclear autoantibodies (ANA) in comparison with ANA-negative healthy controls. For this purpose, 92 patients with an high anti-ANA reactivity with or without concomitant extractable nuclear antigen (ENA) or double stranded DNA (ds DNA) positivity were selected and compared with 146 healthy donors. We found that anti-EBV-VCA and EA Ig G concentrations were significantly higher in ANA-positive patients in comparison to the controls (VCA P < 0.0001 and EA P < 0,03) as well as in those ANA-positive patients that showed a concomitant ENA positivity ( P = 0.0002). Interestingly, elevated anti-EBNA-1 Ig G was found in a group of patients who had anti SSA/Ro antibodies. Anti-VCA Ig M Abs were more frequently found in those patients with a very high titer of ANA ( P = 0.06); moreover detection of anti-VCA Ig M/Ig G in absence of anti-EBNA-1 Ig G was more frequent in the patient than in the control group. Both these conditions correlate with a recent EBV infection or reactivation. The data suggest that EBV, particularly during acute infection or in its reactivation phase, could be involved in the ANA and ENA autoantibody formation.

They don’t know that young children are also commonly affected. One form of mono is seen almost only in young children: a few children with mono display the Alice-in-Wonderland syndrome – sizes, shapes, and distances appear distorted during the infection. What is mononucleosis? Mono is an illness that classically includes a sore throat, fever, swollen glands, and noticeable tiredness. It is the most well known infection caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). EBV causes more than 90 percent of mono cases. Other organisms occasionally cause mono, including CMV, adenovirus, HIV, toxoplasma, rubella, and the hepatitis viruses. Like the virus that causes chickenpox, EBV is a herpesvirus. Who gets it?"

Patient Information Handout Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a prevalent viral pathogen. The majority of persons with acute CMV will experience an inapparent infection. Primary CMV infection will cause up to 7 percent of cases of mononucleosis syndrome and will manifest symptoms almost indistinguishable from those of Epstein-Barr virus-induced mononucleosis. CMV, or heterophil-negative mononucleosis, is best diagnosed using a positive Ig M serology. Complications of acute CMV infection in immunocompetent persons are rare, except in newborns. The virus usually is spread through close personal contact; transmission risk can be reduced by following simple hygienic and handwashing techniques. Severe illness can occur after reactivation of the latent virus in immunosuppressed persons. The retina is the most common site of CMV-induced pathology in persons with human immunodeficiency virus infection."

"text": "Epstein Barr Virus I: EBV Rides Again? March 4, 2012Epstein-Barr Virus (or EBV) was the first major disappointment for CFS researchers. Several studies in late eighties suggested EBV might be the cause of CFS but subsequent studies revealed EBV activation to be no higher in CFS than controls. In recent years, however, like Lazarus rising from the grave, EBV’s role in CFS has been given new life by several research groups that have continued to examined this intriguing virus in greater detail. Historical Background EBV has a long history in chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). The finding of increased antibody levels to EBV in 1985 suggested that a chronic EBV infection caused ME/CFS. Five studies between 1985 and 1988 indicating ME/ CFS patients had increased levels of antibodies to EBV lead to the disease for a time being ca lled Chronic Epstein-Barr Virus (and the CFIDS Association of America being called the Chronic Epstein-Barr Virus Association). Further studies, however, found that healthy people often had similar antibody levels and later studies found no evidence of unusual EBV reactivation in ME/ CFS. The inability of researchers to find EBV DNA in the throat washings of CFS patients – a common finding in immunosuppressed subjects – suggested ME/ CFS patients were not subject to high levels of EBV reactivation. Importantly no studies were able to link antibody levels or viral load to symptom severity in the disease and interest in EBV as a causative agent waned."

Dr. Nikolas Hedberg has discovered that chronic infections are the most common underlying cause of Hashimoto’s disease. Written by Dr. Nikolas R. Hedberg Hashimoto’s disease is the most common autoimmune disease in the world and it is also the most common cause of hypothyroidism. Conventional medicine doesn’t offer treatment for Hashimoto’s other than prescription thyroid hormone which doesn’t address the autoimmunity. Autoimmune diseases are skyrocketing and one of the most common and overlooked causes of these conditions are infections. Some of the most popular alternative treatments for Hashimoto’s disease include: Gluten-free diets Leaky gut protocols Vitamin DSelenium Paleo-style diets Additionally, there are a number of supplements and herbal medicines that are used to reduce inflammation and balance the immune system but these do not get to the underlying cause of the autoimmunity. Even low-dose Naltrexone fails many patients and does not address the root cause. In my clinical experience working with many Hashimoto’s patients I have found that the most common underlying cause of Hashimoto’s disease is a chronic stealth infection that has been overlooked by both conventional and alternative practitioners. Infections trigger autoimmunity by what is known as molecular mimicry which basically means that your immune system is attacking a stealth microbe such as a virus or bacteria, but the infection looks like your own body tissue such as the thyroid so your immune system attacks it as well. As long as the infection is active, the immune system will continue to attack the gland."

Hess *+ Author Affiliations Hi SS Diagnostics Gmb H, Freiburg, Germany In 1968 Epstein-Barr virus (EBV; now human herpesvirus 4) was found to be the major cause of infectious mononucleosis (IM), a usually self-limited clinical syndrome ( 10 ). Only about 5% of adults in Western societies remain EBV uninfected; thus, antibody prevalence rates reach 95% or higher among elderly individuals ( 29 ). Although it is believed that routine laboratory diagnosis of primary EBV infection is straightforward, this minireview focuses on practice guidelines for a rational approach to the diagnosis of EBV-associated IM in immunocompetent individuals on a serological basis. Next Section CLINICAL SYMPTOMS IN IMMUNOCOMPETENT INDIVIDUALSClinical symptoms and diagnostic approaches differ according to the immune status of the patients. In immunocompetent individuals primary infection with EBV is most often frequently asymptomatic ( 10 ). IM may present as a mild infectious illness of young children, but in young adults primary EBV infection can cause a type of IM known as the Pfeiffer's Drüsenfieber (glandular fever) or kissing disease ( 20 ). A variety of symptoms, such as upper respiratory tract infection, otitis media, abdominal complaints, hepatitis, enlargement of the cervical lymph nodes, tonsillitis and/or pharyngitis, and moderate to high fever are observed ( 31 ). In most cases primary EBV infection is accompanied by increases in liver enzyme levels and lymphocytosis, largely composed of atypical lymphocytes (mononuclear cells) in the peripheral blood ( 16 ). The clinical signs of IM are provoked by the massive immune response involving cytotoxic T lymphocytes directed against EBV-infected B cells ( 29 )."

A complete liver panel should include the aminotransferases (AST, ALT), Alkaline Phosphatase, Total bilirubin as well as tests of liver function: Albumin, Prothrombin time (PT) and international normalized ratio (INR). In general,, a liver enzyme panel should not be used as a screening test because of its low sensitivity and specificity for identifying clinically significant liver disease. Only a portion of healthy volunteers with a mild transaminitis will have clinically significant liver disease. Similarly, a significant degree of chronic liver injury can be hidden within mildly abnormal liver enzymes. The initial approach to elevated liver enzymes should determine the pattern of liver injury as either hepatocellular, cholestatic or both. Hepatocellular injury will typically cause elevated transaminases (AST/ALT) that are released into the serum as a result of liver cell injury or death. A cholestatic injury will cause an elevated alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin out of proportion to the level of transaminitis. This discussion will focus mainly on the interpretation of elevated transaminases or hepatocellular injury. While the transaminases are considered markers of acute hepatocellular injury, they can also become elevated in the setting of injury to muscle, kidney, brain, red blood cells and small bowel."

Francis Twitty/Getty Images The mononucleosis spot test, better known as the monospot test, is a diagnostic test for mono (short for infectious mononucleosis). The monospot test is a rapid heterophile antibody test that typically has results within 72 hours. Your doctor will generally have this test done along with a CBC (complete blood count) which requires your blood to be drawn from your vein. However this test can also be done as a finger poke. Mono is generally caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), however cytomegalovirus (CMV) can cause a CMV mononucleosis, which has similar symptoms. While the CDC no longer recommends the monospot test, many guidelines still encourage the test to help identify the cause of mono. Symptoms Related to Mono Mono typically causes severe fatigue (tiredness or lethargy), swollen tonsils with a very sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, fever, and sometimes body aches. It is most common in adolescents, although many people become infected with EBV and never develop infectious mononucleosis. If you suspect you have mono, you should see your physician to be tested and rule out other illnesses, such as strep throat, which must be treated with antibiotics."

A: I think it has pretty much remained the same. Probably one of the reasons why you don’t hear about mono as much today is that people like to refer to it as the Epstein-Barr virus, or EBV. When I trained in the late ’70s and ’80s, it was not that easy to test specifically for EBV. You could do a roundabout test called a heterophile or a monospot test, which gave you indirect evidence that you had EBV — the laboratory symptoms of which is mononucleosis. But now it is very easy to test for EBV, so people tend to refer to it that way. Q: Is the monospot test still used today? A: Yes."

The device picks up echoes of the sound waves as they bounce off the different parts of your heart. These echoes are turned into moving pictures of your heart that can be seen on a video screen. The different types of echocardiograms are: Transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE). This is the most common type. Views of the heart are obtained by moving the transducer to different locations on your chest or abdominal wall. Stress echocardiogram. During this test, an echocardiogram is done both before and after your heart is stressed either by having you exercise or by injecting a medicine that makes your heart beat harder and faster. A stress echocardiogram is usually done to find out if you might have decreased blood flow to your heart ( coronary artery disease ). Doppler echocardiogram."

"text": "What Is An Echocardiogram? An echocardiogram is also referred to as an echo or echocardiography. Echocardiography uses ultrasound high-frequency sound waves to produce detailed images of the heart. There are different types of echocardiograms which are used to test various aspects of the heart including it's size, shape, contractions and how blood flows through it and the arteries. The most important function of the echo is to confirm the diagnosis of heart disease after a physical examination. More than 5 million echos are completed every year in the USA. It is the same technology that is used in pregnancy ultrasound scans for checking fetus development. The sound waves enter the body through a handheld device called a transducer. They bounce off internal structures and fluids in the heart and return echoes back through the transducer. The echoes are then converted into images on a computer screen."

An echocardiogram is a noninvasive (the skin is not pierced) procedure used to assess the heart's function and structures. During the procedure, a transducer (like a microphone) sends out sound waves at a frequency too high to be heard. When the transducer is placed on the chest at certain locations and angles, the sound waves move through the skin and other body tissues to the heart tissues, where the waves bounce or \"\"echo\"\" off of the heart structures. These sound waves are sent to a computer that can create moving images of the heart walls and valves. An echocardiogram may use several special types of echocardiography, as listed below: M-mode echocardiography. This, the simplest type of echocardiography, produces an image that is similar to a tracing rather than an actual picture of heart structures. M-mode echo is useful for measuring or viewing heart structures, such as the heart's pumping chambers, the size of the heart itself, and the thickness of the heart walls. Doppler echocardiography. This Doppler technique is used to measure and assess the flow of blood through the heart's chambers and valves."

If your healthcare provider does hear a murmur, they will probably order some tests to help determine whether the murmur is a sign of a heart valve problem. You will probably also be checked for other heart problems, such as coronary artery disease or heart failure, or for other illnesses that can occur along with heart valve problems, such as diabetes, liver or kidney problems, or high blood pressure. The main test for diagnosing heart valve disease is an echocardiogram, called an “echo” for short. Other tests may be done to confirm the diagnosis or to see how severe the condition is to help plan your treatment. Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG)This simple test measures the electrical activity of your heart using electrodes (wires) placed on the chest and other parts of your body. An EKG can detect an irregular heartbeat, signs of a previous heart attack, and whether your heart chambers are enlarged. These changes can be signs of heart valve problems. Chest X-Ray A chest X-ray shows the size and shape of the heart, lungs, and large blood vessels. It can’t show the inside structures of the heart, like the heart valves, but can show whether parts of your heart are enlarged, if there are calcium deposits in your heart, or fluid buildup in your lungs."

"text": "\"Heart Murmurs in Cats By Cheryl Yuill, DVM, MSc, CVHMedical Conditions What is a heart murmur? A heart murmur is an abnormal heart sound, usually heard by listening to the heart with a stethoscope. What causes a heart murmur? A heart murmur is caused by turbulent blood flow within the heart. Sometimes a murmur is determined to be 'innocent' or 'physiologic', while other times the murmur is determined to be pathologic or caused by disease. Pathologic heart murmurs can be caused by a structural problem within the heart (i.e., cardiac disease), or can be due to a problem that is 'extracardiac' (i.e., not caused by heart disease). Do all murmurs sound the same? No. The loudness of a murmur reflects the amount of turbulence that is present in the heart. However, the loudness of a heart murmur does not always correlate directly with the severity of disease."

It is the use of an artificial heart-lung machine for patients whose heart or lungs are failing despite all other treatments. The ECMO equipment functions as a heart (pump) and lung (providing oxygen). It takes over the work of these organs so they can rest and heal. Why ECMO? ECMO is used for children and adult patients with severe, but reversible heart or lung disorders that have not responded to the usual treatments of mechanical ventilation (ventilator), medicines, and extra oxygen. Adults who need ECMO usually have one of the following problems: Pneumonia Respiratory failure from trauma or severe infections Cardiac failure ECMO will not cure these conditions; it does give support and allow time for the lungs/heart to heal. EMCO is continued until the heart or lungs recover or until treatment is not effective; it may be a period of days or weeks. The length of time on ECMO may be affected by: the type of lung or heart disease, the amount of damage to the lungs before ECMO, and other illnesses or complications."

"text": "Understanding Extra-Corporeal Life Support and ECMOExtracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO), Extracorporeal Life Support (ECLS) and Cardiopulmonary Support (CPS) are acronyms that all refer to the establishment of cardiopulmonary bypass using portable mechanical circulatory support systems. Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (ECPR) is the initiation of bypass during resuscitation of the arresting patient. These systems are highly portable, as large as a small appliance on wheels to as small as a cardiac transport monitor (Maquet Cardiohelp™), and can quickly be brought to the arresting patient in almost any setting, including the operating rooom, ICU, Emergency Department, or even the prehospital arena. ECPR is performed by the resuscitationist via percutaneous vascular access during traditional CPR. In other words, one doctor is “running the code” and another doctor is accessing the femoral vessels. Rarely, femoral vessel cutdown is necessary. We recently published a study (Bellezzo, et al) showing that Emergency Physicians can successfully perform ECPR, but the procedure can be done by any resuscitationist with training in advanced vascular access. ECMO can provide both cardiac and respiratory support to patients whose heart or lungs are so damaged that they cannot perform their function. This is a temporizing measure to allow the time to address the problem that caused the arrest. There are several indications for ECMO but a classic example is the the patient with massive MI and refractory ventricular fibrillation."

"text": "Overview Introduction to ECMOThe term extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was initially used to describe long-term extracorporeal support that focused on the function of oxygenation. Subsequently, in some patients, the emphasis shifted to carbon dioxide removal, and the term extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal was coined. Extracorporeal support was later used for postoperative support in patients following cardiac surgery. [ 1] Other variations of its capabilities have been tested and used over the last few years, making it an important tool in the armamentarium of life and organ support measures for clinicians. With all of these uses for extracorporeal circuitry, a new term, extracorporeal life support (ECLS), has come into vogue to describe this technology. See Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Complex Clinical Condition, a Critical Images slideshow, for more information on this life-threatening condition characterized by acute respiratory failure, hypoxemia, and pulmonary edema. The differences between ECMO and cardiopulmonary bypass are as follows: ECMO is frequently instituted using only cervical cannulation, which can be performed under local anesthesia; standard cardiopulmonary bypass is usually instituted by transthoracic cannulation under general anesthesia Unlike standard cardiopulmonary bypass, which is used for short-term support measured in hours, ECMO is used for longer-term support ranging from 3-10 days The purpose of ECMO is to allow time for intrinsic recovery of the lungs and heart; a standard cardiopulmonary bypass provides support during various types of cardiac surgical procedures A diagram of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is shown below. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) system. View Media Gallery History of ECMOIn May 1953, Gibbon used artificial oxygenation and perfusion support for the first successful open heart operation. [ 2] In 1954, Lillehei developed the cross-circulation technique by using slightly anesthetized adult volunteers as live cardiopulmonary bypass apparatuses during the repair of certain congenital cardiac disorders.

Your child’s doctor chooses the size of the tubes based on his or her size, age, weight and the reason why ECMO is being used. The cannulas transfer the blood from the child’s heart by using a pump to push the blood through tubes to the machine where the blood receives oxygen and the carbon dioxide is removed. Next the blood is warmed to body temperature. Finally, the warm blood goes through another cannula back your child’s body. Look at the following pictures of the ECMO circuit/machine. They are labeled to help you understand how the blood flows from the child through the cannulas, into the machine and back to the child. This image shows the various parts of the ECMO machine.

( July 2014) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Prior to the introduction of brain death into law in the mid to late 1970s, all organ transplants from cadaveric donors came from non-heart beating donors ( NHBDs ). [ 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.

ARDS is not a particular disease; rather, it is a clinical condition triggered by various pathologies such as trauma, pneumonia, and sepsis. The hallmark of ARDS is diffuse injury to cells which form the barrier of the microscopic air sacs of the lungs, surfactant dysfunction, activation of the innate immune system response, and dysfunction of the body's regulation of clotting and bleeding.

It was a scheduled operation, nothing urgent. And it left me with an ugly scar on my back. Today, it’s still very notable after all those years. Also still painful during season changes. Roll the clock forward some 40 years, my youngest son had an operation right after birth. He was in a critical condition, and, in order to save his life, the main artery and vein in his neck were bypassed to connect him to an infant life support machine (ECMO). Despite the urgency and complexity, his scar is hardly noticeable. Despite his slim chances of survival, doctors treated him in both operations - connecting and disconnecting from ECMO - such that everything, cosmetic side effects included, will be as professional as they possibly can. What makes the difference between a top notch surgical unit to a mediocre to a poor one?"

"text": "About Us Overview The University of Michigan has a long tradition of being leaders and the ECMO program at UMHS is no exception. Our program was established in 1980 by one of the founding fathers of ECMO, Dr. Robert H. Bartlett. Our first patient was in 1981, with a total of eight patients that year. Currently we average 100+ patients per year. In November 2010, we have placed our 2,000th patient on ECMO. The ECMO program grew swiftly and a dedicated team was organized in 1987. Dr. Bartlett expanded the program to adults in 1988. We have completed over 195 transports to date. In 1994, our program expanded to include rapid cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). Additionally, we remain an ELSO Designated Center of Excellence."

In This Article Abstract and Introduction History of Pediatric VADTypes of VADVAD Selection Conclusions References Types of VADVADs are usually classified according to the mode of blood flow, namely pulsatile or continuous. Continuous types can be further subdivided based on the biomechanics of the pump: centrifugal or axial. Some continuous VADs can create pulsatile waveforms by periodically changing the pump speed. VADs are also classified based on the location of a pump relative to the patient: intracorporeal, paracorporeal, and extracorporeal. In general, a pulsatile VAD is paracorporeal, and an axial VAD is intracorporeal. A centrifugal pump is used in multiple settings. Selected examples of each category will be reviewed in the following section. Pulsatile Pumps Two pulsatile systems have proved successful in supporting children of all ages, from the newborn to the adolescent."

Usual Adult Dose for: Chronic Pain Breakthrough Pain Pain Anesthesia Usual Pediatric Dose for: Anesthesia Pain Sedation Breakthrough Pain Additional dosage information: Renal Dose Adjustments Liver Dose Adjustments Dose Adjustments Precautions Dialysis Other Comments Usual Adult Dose for Chronic Pain TRANSDERMAL PATCH: -Due to the risk of respiratory depression, the transdermal patch is for use in opioid-tolerant patients only; opioid tolerant patients have been taking at least: morphine 60 mg daily, oral oxycodone 30 mg daily, oral hydromorphone 8 mg daily, or an equianalgesic dose of another opioid for 1 week or longer. -Discontinue all other extended-release opioids when beginning therapy. Initial doses: The initial dose should be individualized taking into account the patient's prior treatment experience. This dose may be calculated based on the dose conversion guidelines in the product package insert, local protocol, or another reliable reference; when calculating, be aware there is substantial inter-patient variability in the relative potency of different opioid drugs and products and therefore it is preferable to underestimate a 24-hour fentanyl requirement and provide rescue medication than to overestimate which could result in adverse reactions. Dose titration: -Initial: May increase dose after 3 days based on the daily dose of supplemental opioid analgesics required by the patient on the second or third day of the initial application. -Further titration should occur after no less than two 3-day applications as it may take up to 6 days for fentanyl levels to reach equilibrium. Titration should be based on the daily dose of supplementary opioids required and the following ratio may be used: Increase transdermal fentanyl by 12 mcg//hr for use of supplemental oral morphine doses of 45 mg/24 hours. Maintenance dose: Adjust dose to obtain an appropriate balance between pain management and opioid-related adverse reactions."

Accepted 4 February 2002. Next Section Abstract We evaluated the analytical performance of the i-STAT Portable Clinical Analyzer (PCA), a point-of-care testing system consisting of a hand-held analyzer and single-use cartridges that measure different panels of electrolytes, metabolites, blood gases, and hematocrit in 65–100 μl of blood. Our objective was to determine whether PCA measurements at the bedside of patients in the neonatal and pediatric intensive care units of the MUSC Children’s Hospital would be as reliable as those performed by the clinical laboratory’s primary methods (Radiometer ABL 725 blood gas analyzer; Vitros 750 chemistry analyzer; and Coulter STKS hematology analyzer). Four cartridge types: (a) EC8+ (sodium; potassium; chloride; urea; glucose; p H; blood gases [p O 2; p CO 2 ]), (b) EC6+ (sodium; potassium; ionized calcium; glucose; hematocrit; p H), (c) G3+ (p H; p O 2; p CO 2 ), and (d) creatinine, were assessed for reproducibility, linearity, and method comparisons using aqueous samples, blood samples supplemented with several analytes, and ~225 blood samples from patients. Reproducibility (CV) was good (<2%) for electrolytes, glucose, urea, and p H, satisfactory (<6.5%) for blood gases and creatinine, but poor (21%) for hematocrit. Linearity concentrations spanning the clinically relevant ranges were verified for all analytes. Method comparison studies with samples separated into 2 subgroups by patient age (> or < 3 mo) showed that agreement between the PCA and the primary methods was clinically acceptable. After the PCA was implemented for clinical testing, the observation of discrepant results of creatinine concentrations in neonatal blood samples that would have affected clinical management led to a second creatinine comparison study (59 additional samples) and to our eventual discontinuation of the PCA creatinine assay."

"text": "ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) is a procedure that uses a machine to take over the work of the lungs and sometimes the heart. ECMO is used for babies, children and adults. It is a special way for a machine to help your child, while they are very sick. ECMO provides time for your child’s body to rest and recover. You might hear your doctors, ECMO specialists, or nurses refer to this process as ECLS (Extracorporeal Life Support) or bypass, which is saying the same thing, just in a different way. Let’s take a moment to better understand each word in ECMO: Extracorporeal means that the blood circulates outside of the body with the help of a machine. Membrane Oxygenation, referred to as the “artificial lungs,” is a special part of the machine that puts oxygen into the blood and takes out carbon dioxide just like our lungs do.

I guess the first question that needs to be asked is ‘what is Wi Fi radiation?’ Which leads to the question ‘is Wi Fi safe?’Because if you’re not clear about these questions it’s pointless talking about Wi Fi radiation protection. What Is Wi Fi Radiation? Wi Fi devices emit radio-frequency radiation otherwise known as microwave radiation. Most wireless routers and similar wireless devices emit a field of wireless radiation 24/7. This microwave radiation is exactly the same kind of radiation that microwave ovens use to cook food. When you put food in a microwave oven and press ‘on’ this bombards your food with microwave radiation which creates molecular friction and heats up the food. It’s known as ‘the heating effect’ or ‘the thermal effect’. Wi Fi devices like wireless modem routers and wireless computers contain transmitters that use this same kind of microwave radiation to send information back and forth in the air which can in theory have a similar heating effect on our body."

The program was very competitive, with proposals requesting more than $280,000 submitted for consideration. We are excited to announce that the Biogen Idec Foundation will continue this program in 2014 for districts represented at this year’s MA STEM Summit. Congratulations to the winners!Arlington High School School Walls: A Permeable Membrane The purpose of this program is to create and refine a structure for making the walls of the school permeable in two directions. Students in several pilot classrooms (initially Environmental Science, Oceanography, Physics and Chemistry - which have biological and environmental intersections with the community) would form 2-3 student \"\"consulting groups.\"\" These groups would go out into the community (small businesses, civic groups, town agencies - conservation, land trust, etc.) and offer their services to collect data of one or more environmental variables (lighting efficiency, heating efficiency, water quality, etc.). Students would then be responsible for generating a report on the patterns of data and make specific recommendations to the small business, agency or group, based on their findings."

"text": "Features Rethinking Eco-Responsible Packaging Many brands in the beauty industry are looking to suppliers for more eco-optimal packaging and sustainable practices. Jamie Matusow, Editor-in-Chief 04.29.15It seems as if nearly every day, news of an environmentally responsible beauty package or practice appears in my inbox. These announcements of advances in our industry come from suppliers, brands and organizations around the world. Consumer demand lies at the heart of many of these packaging launches and facility or process upgrades, and when I’m out and about at events, I frequently hear about the particular influence of millennials and those in Generation Z in this regard. They are determined and powerful groups and committed to their values when making purchasing decisions. They’re reading labels more carefully and looking for more transparency in the products they are willing to spend their money on. Along with being more conscious of the foods they’re eating and the products they are putting on their skin and hair, they’re also considering the health of the planet and, in accordance, are rethinking and altering their habits. These same factors are also weighing in on many baby boomers’ product choices. Cost efficiencies throughout the supply chain also remain a key motivator for brands investigating sustainable options in everything from materials to manufacturing processes. Packaging Sustainability Trends Anne Bedarf, senior manager of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition (SPC), an industry group dedicated to a more robust environmental vision for packaging, says that, in general, packaging sustainability trends tend to be the same across all sectors, including beauty."

"title": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_recycling\nPlastic recycling",
"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Plastic recycling is the process of recovering scrap or waste plastic and reprocessing the material into useful products. Since the vast majority of plastic is non- biodegradable, recycling is a part of global efforts to reduce plastic in the waste stream, especially the approximately 8 million tons of waste plastic that enter the Earth's ocean every year. [ 1] [2] This helps to reduce the high rates of plastic pollution. Plastic recycling includes taking any type of plastic, sorting it into different polymers and then chipping it and then melting it down into pellets. After this stage, it can then be used to make items of any sort such as plastic chairs and tables. Soft plastics are also recycled such as polyethylene film and bags. This closed-loop operation has taken place since the 1970s and has made the production of some plastic products amongst the most efficient operations today. [ citation needed]Compared with lucrative recycling of metal, and similar to the low value of glass, plastic polymers recycling is often more challenging because of low density and low value. There are also numerous technical hurdles to overcome when recycling plastic. A macro molecule interacts with its environment along its entire length, so total energy involved in mixing it is largely due to the product side stoichiometry (see enthalpy )."

The other elements in Copper's specific group (group 1B, directly below it on the table) are Silver (Ag) and Gold (Au), which puts it in some racy company. Copper is the key to elasticity in the plant. It is an important constituent of many proteins like ascorbic acid oxidase, cytochrome oxidase, diamine oxidase, and polyphenol oxidase. Copper is an important nutrient for many microbes, such as Aspergillis niger. It controls molds and often alleviates perceived zinc deficiencies. Copper interacts with iron and manganese.

(Ginza 8-chome, Tokyo; 1938)Oji Plant, the main factory of Riken Optical for manufacturing sensitized paper as well as cameras and binoculars (1938)Founder Kiyoshi Ichimura Ricoh’s origins date back to a decision by the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research to commercialize the fruits of its R&D by setting up Rikagaku Kogyo. Since its formation in 1927, the business venture has placed on the market numerous products developed by the research institute, including sensitized paper. On February 6, 1936, the sensitized paper division was split off to be established as Riken Kankoshi Co., Ltd., a precursor of Ricoh, under the directorship of Kiyoshi Ichimura (1900-1968). As the founder of Ricoh, Ichimura led the successful development of the business that started with 350,000 yen in capital and a staff of 33. Kiyoshi Ichimura formulated The Spirit of Three Loves: “ Love your neighbor,” “ Love your country,” “Love your work,” and ever since, they have been respected as the Ricoh Group’s Founding Principles, which provide every employee with a guide for business and encourage individuals to constantly improve and contribute to the wellbeing of all stakeholders, including families, customers, and society at large.

For its successful establishment of the mass production system, Ricoh was recognized by the Okochi Memorial Foundation with a production award. Ricoh was awarded the Okochi Memorial Production Prize for the successful establishment of a mass production system (1957)Ricoh was the first company in Japan to introduce a belt-conveyor system for manufacturing cameras, achieving a production capacity of 10,000 units/month—more than ten times the capacity of the then standard level of less than 1,000 units/month from the conventional handicraft industry. Successfully adopting this method of camera mass production, Ricoh offered the Ricohflex Model III at an affordable price, which was remarkably low for an iconic luxury item in those days."

What is a Direct Sales Business? Direct sales is the process of selling products face-to-face away from a retail store location. Many times this is done through in-home shopping parties, presentations, and catalog sales. For a minimal fee, companies give you a starter kit that includes everything that you need to start your own business."

"text": "\"Send us a Letter Have an opinion about this story? Click here to submit a Letter to the Editor, and we may publish it in print. DETROIT -- General Motors and Ford Motor Co. are using radically different strategies to raise the fuel economy of their thirstiest vehicles: trucks and performance cars. Ford, with its Eco Boost turbocharging technology, makes a small engine act big. GM, with its Active Fuel Management cylinder deactivation system, makes a big engine act small. Whose strategy is better? It depends on how success is measured. If cost and manufacturing complexity and real-world fuel economy gains are the metrics, GM has the advantage. But if sales, image and government-measured fuel economy improvements are the yardsticks, Ford gets the nod. According to the EPA's annual Trends Report released Dec. 12, GM and Ford have increased car and light-truck fuel economy over the past three years."

Your washer and dryer combo could need to be serviced, and the technician cannot come until next week, yet you have laundry to wash and dry. You might be on vacation and need to do a load or two of laundry. You could be away at college, and your dormitory does not have its own laundry facilities. Regardless of your reason for having to go to the laundromat, these tips make it seem less like a punishment, and will help get you in and out as quickly as possible. Pretreat stains and sort clothes before you leave home. Having your clothing already sorted and any stains treated saves you time once you arrive at the laundromat. It also does not hurt to check the pockets, and turn t-shirts and other articles inside out as you sort. Only take what laundry products you need. There is no reason to lug gallon containers of laundry detergents, fabric softeners, and bleach along to the laundromat."

"text": "January 1, 1997 by CFACT , Comments are off Tweet Email CFACT Briefing Paper #102From movies to classrooms to the nightly news, Americans are constantly being told that of the world’s environmental “crises,” the staggering loss of tropical rainforest, and Amazon rainforest in particular, is right up there at the top. Pictures of charred remains of once lush jungles flicker before our eyes, we are shown the exotic plants and wild species that are being made homeless by the chainsaw and the flame, and numbers likened to one football field per second are used to describe this devastating loss. As a result of this, we are told that the tropical rainforests will all soon disappear, that nearly half of all the species on planet earth will soon be extinguished, and that these areas must be basically put off limits to humankind if we have any hope of saving this wonderful miracle of nature. With an emphasis on the Amazon region, the following paper provides some background on tropical rainforests, examines the truth about deforestation rates and the species extinctions that are said to follow, and compares two very differing views about the relationship between people and nature in the tropics. BACKGROUNDThe word “rainforest” was coined in 1898 by a German botanist to describe forests that grow in constantly wet conditions, with an average annual rainfall of 80 inches per year or more. There are differing kinds of rainforest including “flooded mangrove forests along the salty coastline of SE Asian islands, high-altitude cloud forests of S. American, temperate rain forests of the U. S. Pacific Northwest,” and the “tropical rain forests that form large pockets of green along the earth’s equator” — the major focus of this paper. Tropical “rainforests grow in more than 50 countries but about half of the total is in just three: Brazil with 33%, and Zaire and Indonesia with 10% each,” and 57% of total is in Latin America. ( National Wildlife Federation – Educator’s Guide)Tropical rainforests are found within the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, in a belt that girdles the earth. Location is between 23 1/2 degrees north and 23 1/2 south of the equator. They grow through the heart of South America, Africa, Northern Australia, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines, to name a few. ("

It includes the combination of the various institutions, agencies, entities, decision-making processes, and patterns of consumption that comprise the economic structure of a given community. As such, an economic system is a type of social system. The mode of production is a related concept. [ 1] All economic systems have three basic questions to ask: what to produce, how to produce and in what quantities, and who receives the output of production. The study of economic systems includes how these various agencies and institutions are linked to one another, how information flows between them, and the social relations within the system (including property rights and the structure of management). The analysis of economic systems traditionally focused on the dichotomies and comparisons between market economies and planned economies, and on the distinctions between capitalism and socialism. [ 2] Subsequently, the categorization of economic systems expanded to include other topics and models that do not conform to the traditional dichotomy. Today the dominant form of economic organization at the world level is based on market-oriented mixed economies. [ 3]Economic systems is the category in the Journal of Economic Literatureclassification codes that includes the study of such systems."

What they say is true—the world does have the wealth and means to end poverty—and, yes, it is more than time that we tackled the causes (or rather the cause) of poverty. So what causes world poverty?

Apply Now at emeritus.gsb.columbia.edu5 Answers Vrinda Kumar, An Educator Answered Sep 30, 2013Functions of the Price Mechanism Author: Geoff Riley Last updated: Sunday 23 September, 2012 Introduction Adam Smith’s Invisible Hand Adam Smith, one of the Founding Fathers of economics described the “invisible hand of the price mechanism” in which the hidden-hand of the market operating in a competitive market through the pursuit of self-interest allocated resources in society’s best interest. This remains a view held by free-market economists who believe in the virtues of an economy with minimal government intervention. The price mechanism describes the means by which millions of decisions taken by consumers and businesses interact to determine the allocation of scarce resources between competing uses The price mechanism plays three important functions in a market: 1/ Signalling function Prices perform a signalling function – they adjust to demonstrate where resources are required, and where they are not Prices rise and fall to reflect scarcities and surpluses If prices are rising because of high demand from consumers, this is a signal to suppliers to expand production to meet the higher demand If there is excess supply in the market the price mechanism will help to eliminate a surplus of a good by allowing the market price to fall. In the example on the right, an increase in market supply causes a fall in the relative prices of digital cameras and prompts an expansion along the market demand curve2/ Transmission of preferences Through their choices consumers send information to producers about the changing nature of needs and wants Higher prices act as an incentive to raise output because the supplier stands to make a better profit. When demand is weaker in a recession then supply contracts as producers cut back on output. One of the features of a market economy system is that decision-making isdecentralisedi.e. there is no single body responsible for deciding what is to be produced and in what quantities. This is a remarkable feature of anorganic market system.3/ Rationing function Prices serve to ration scarce resources when demand in a market outstrips supply."

In contrast, a planned economy's decisions are made largely by the government. The consumers' interests have less impact on the economy in this system. A mixed economy incorporates both governmental control and consumer interests."

Communism Nationalism Socialism Capitalism Communism Layman's Explanations Comparisons What is the difference between Capitalism, Communism, Socialism and Nationalism?13 Answers Richie Lomas, studied at Washington College Answered Apr 1, 2015 · Author has 52 answers and 120.6k answer views So, a huge misconception that you'd be getting from a lot of these answers is that somehow socialism is either a transition to communism or communism-lite. However, \"\"Communism\"\" as it is generally understood, is a vein of thought within socialism, so it makes more sense to define communism by its relationship to socialism rather than the other way around. Capitalism : Almost everything exists as some form of privately owned capital (hence the name). This includes labor, which you can sell for a price known as a wage/salary. Each individual is able to buy or sell their capital in the market. Market forces of supply and demand determine the price of a good or service, and in theory allocate resources most efficiently to those who want them. Socialism : One of the big critiques of capitalism is the fact that one of the forms of capital that is privately owned is the means of production (factories, farms, etc.). Socialists contend that private ownership of the means of production allows a disproportionate amount of wealth to accumulate in the hands of a small class of people, the capitalists, or the Bourgeoisie. This concentration of wealth then warps the supposed efficiency of the market, as the bourgeois class controls a share of it to make it meet their needs above the needs of the poor."

The Emergence of Profit and Loss In the capitalist system of society's economic organization the entrepreneurs determine the course of production. In the performance of this function they are unconditionally and totally subject to the sovereignty of the buying public, the consumers. If they fail to produce in the cheapest and best possible way those commodities which the consumers are asking for most urgently, they suffer losses and are finally eliminated from their entrepreneurial position. Other men who know better how to serve the consumers replace them. If all people were to anticipate correctly the future state of the market, the entrepreneurs would neither earn any profits nor suffer any losses. They would have to buy the complementary factors of production at prices which would, already at the instant of the purchase, fully reflect the future prices of the products. No room would be left either for profit or for loss. What makes profit emerge is the fact that the entrepreneur who judges the future prices of the products more correctly than other people do buys some or all of the factors of production at prices which, seen from the point of view of the future state of the market, are too low."

China currently has a very strange mix of socialist, capitalist, and communist ideas for their economy. It is unique in the world, and often really defies categorization. While many capitalist ideas are in place, several core tenets of capitalism do not exist (sanctity of contracts, private property ownership).

After the disaster of 1929, economists and politicians resolved that this must never happen again. The easiest way of succeeding at this resolve was, simply to define \"\"depressions\"\" out of existence. From that point on, America was to suffer no further depressions."

"text": "\"In common usage capitalism refers to an economic system where the means of production are privately owned and operated, and where the investment of capital, and production, distribution, income, and prices are determined not by government (as in a planned economy) but through the operation of a market where all decisions regarding transfer of money, goods (including capital goods), and services are voluntary. In capitalism, the means of production are generally operated for profit. For a survey of definitions, see Wikiquote. Although some developed countries are regarded as capitalist, some of them have been called \"\"mixed economies\"\", due to government-owned means of production and economic interventionism. Capitalism is \"\"also called free market economy,\"\" or \"\"free enterprise economy. \"\" Contents [ show]Etymology Edit The word \"\"capital\"\" has roots in the trade and ownership of animals. The Latin root of the word is capitalis, from the proto-Indo-European kaput, which means \"\"head\"\", this being how wealth was measured. The more head of cattle, the better. The terms chattel (meaning goods, animals, or slaves) and even cattle itself also derive from this same origin. The lexical connections between animal trade and economics can also be seen in the names of many currencies and words about money: fee (faihu), rupee (rupya), buck (a deerskin), pecuniary (pecu), stock (livestock), and peso (pecu or pashu) all derive from animal-trade origins."

I intend to sprinkle some drops of cold water on such hasty hopes. I have no faith in the notion that an abstract “democratic capitalism” is about to gain acceptance throughout the world. We find fairly widespread in these United States a “capitalistic” version of Karl Marx’s dialectical materialism – more’s the pity. It is not a theoretical “democratic capitalism” that can preserve, unaided, order and justice and freedom. Materialism was an American vice when Alexis de Tocqueville travelled in the United States. That vice has not diminished in power. People who maintain that production and consumption are the ends of human existence presently will find themselves impoverished materially, as well as spiritually. It is true that the masters of what once was the Soviet Union have modified their Marxism – and not the disciples of Yeltsin merely. Consider this passage from Mikhail Gorbachev’s book Perestroika (1987): We must encourage efficiency in production and the talent of a writer, scientist, or any other upright and hard-working citizen."

"text": "\"The Four Networks Theory of Power: A Theoretical Home for Power Structure Researchby G. William Domhoff This document explains why and how organizations are the starting point for understanding power. It focuses on four main organizational networks -- ideological, economic, military, and political -- as the building blocks for power structures. To provide a backdrop for understanding the American power structure, it then briefly applies the theory to Europe from the Middle Ages to the 19th century, showing how the economic and political networks gradually subordinated the ideological and military networks. Finally, it shows how the theory explains the class domination that characterizes the American power structure. The theoretical starting point for power structure research is a seemingly mundane one, but that's what makes it very useful: power is rooted in organizations. From that humble beginning we can soon reach classes, states, the military and the ideological organizations that provide the basis for the collective search for meaning and forgiveness (organized religions). Organizations at their most basic are simply sets of rules, roles, and routines developed to accomplish some particular purpose. They are ways of doing something together that people agree on, or at least accept for the time being. Religious rituals, for example, are routines that become the basis for the institutions called churches. The established routines for face-to-face economic exchanges become one basis for the more complex economic system of markets."

The paper represents only the views of the author. ABSTRACTThere is an emerging consensus that effective water resources management includes the management of water as an economic resource. The Dublin Statement of the International Conference on Water and the Environment, for example, states that \"\"water has an economic value in all its competing uses and should be recognized as an economic good\"\". But there is little agreement on what this actually means, either in theory or in practice. This paper provides a simple framework for unbundling the different components of water as an economic resource, provides some data on critical variables, and discusses the policy implications. The interaction of three critical factors -- -- the value of water, the use cost of water, and the opportunity cost of the resource -- is explored for the cases of urban water supply and irrigation."

And, with most new found industries, many organizations, companies, and countries are taking advantage of it. Also, a lot of people are still trying to understand exactly what ecotourism is and whether they could trust the brochures or information put out by various sources. The key problem is that so many people are taking advantage of the idea of ecotourism and others trying to do good for the environment. Let's first discuss the advantages of ecotourism before we discuss the disadvantages of ecotourism and the effects of ecotourism. What are the advantages of ecotourism? With so many disadvantages of ecotourism, it is hard to see the advantages and benefits of ecotourism. However, if done right, the goals of ecotourism are to help the environment, preserve natural resources as well as help the local communities and economies."

Throughout the tropics these are all increasing in intensity, but the main threats are from habitat loss, such as deforestation, and over-harvesting. Habitat loss Biodiversity, the planet’s most valuable resource, is on loan to us from our children.– E. O. Wilson The highest driver of change over the last century, destruction of habitat continues to be the greatest driver of biodiversity loss. Deforestation to clear land for agriculture or to harvest timber destroys the homes of many species that cannot live anywhere else, forcing them into extinction. Almost half of the Earth’s tropical forest cover has been destroyed in the last 40 years; and at current rates of deforestation, estimates predict 55% of the Amazon Rainforest could be severely damaged or gone by the year 2030. The picture below refers to deforestation between 1980–2000.55% Gone By 2030Developing Countries Buffer: Ecotourism Overharvesting The second cause of biodiversity loss in the tropics, overharvesting is an increasing concern. If we harvest natural products faster than they are replaced, we quickly turn a once renewable resource into a non-renewable resource i.e. we cause extinction. To rectify this, we simply need to ensure all our harvests are sustainable, whether they are fish, tropical hardwood, whales, or nuts. The monetary worth of sustaining a resource is exponentially higher than harvesting it to extinction."

"text": "\"FOREST CONSERVATION AS WELL AS THE ENHANCEMENT OF FOREST COVER AND THE ROLES OF FORESTS IN MEETING BASIC HUMAN NEEDS1. INTRODUCTIONThe June 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), underlined the necessity for all countries to develop harmonised approaches in the management, conservation and sustainable development of global forests is essential to meet the socio-economic and environmental needs of the present and future generations. To achieve this goal, the UNCED also realised, among others, the need to sustain the multiple roles and functions of all types of forests, as well as the need to enhance forest conservation, management, and global forest cover as outlined in Programmes A and B of Chapter 11 under Agenda 21, respectively. In addition, the need to ensure the conservation and sustainable utilisation of biological diversity is also emphasised under Chapter 15 of Agenda 21. While all these are now being recognised, the priority is to operationalise and implement the UNCED programmes, bearing in mind that the full implementation of the adopted Statement of Forest Principles and the various forestry programme areas under Agenda 21 is feasible only on the basis of international efforts towards attaining concrete goals. Hence, this paper is intended to provide a basis for discussion on the implementation of specific aspects of these programmes, particularly that on forest conservation, enhancement of forest cover and the roles of forests, as well as to suggest possible areas of collaboration for national and international actions.2. FOREST CONSERVATIONForests are influenced by climate, landform and soil composition and they exist in a wide variety of forms in the tropical, temperate and boreal zones of the world. Each forest type, evergreen and deciduous, coniferous and broadleaved, wet and dry, as well as closed and open canopy forests, has its own uniqueness and together these forests complement one another and perform the various socio-economic, ecological, environmental, cultural and spiritual functions. Recent surveys on a global basis suggest that there are about 1.4 million documented species, and the general consensus is that this is an underestimate - perhaps 5 - 50 million species exist in the natural ecosystems of forests, savannas, pastures and rangelands, deserts, tundra, lakes and seas. Farmers' fields and gardens are also importance repositories of biological resources."

Interpretation With an emphasis on enriching personal experiences and environmental awareness through interpretation, ecotourism promotes greater understanding and appreciation for nature, local society, and culture. The Definition Ecotourism is now defined as \"\"responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment, sustains the well-being of the local people, and involves interpretation and education\"\" (TIES, 2015). Education is meant to be inclusive of both staff and guests. Principles of Ecotourism Ecotourism is about uniting conservation, communities, and sustainable travel. This means that those who implement, participate in and market ecotourism activities should adopt the following ecotourism principles: Minimize physical, social, behavioral, and psychological impacts.

These individuals are responsible for monitoring and caring for fish and other aquatic life, both in freshwater and saltwater settings. If you desire to become an aquarist, the most important thing you can do is study life sciences in school. After that, finding practical experience, perhaps by even helping at a pet shop or landing internships, would be another good place to start. Though the process to become an aquarist is usually not difficult, it does start with a good foundation in science. Aquarists must often determine which species would do well in an environment together, monitor water quality, feed, and even provide some basic medical care for animals from time to time. Therefore, familiarity with at least some of these basic areas is a good start for anyone having a goal to become an aquarist. Even in high school, sciences are offered such as biology and chemistry. Some schools may even offer marine biology . Ad One of the most important steps you need to complete in the process of becoming an aquarist is simply to finish high school."

ANSWER The work environment at a hospital, depending on where you work, namely which department that you work in will depend on the level of activity, and whether it is a high pressure environment. Many departments like the ER, Surgical, ICU, for example, tend to be quite a bit higher pressure and very fast paced.

These are just some of the ways people around the world identify polar bears. Polar Bears 101Name & Evolution Characteristics Habitat Adaptation Behavior Life Cycle Hunting Diet Myth Busters Human Interactions with Polar Bears Indigenous People Conflicts & Encounters Living Alongside Polar Bears Zoos & Aquariums Polar Bear Ecotourism Scientific Classification Ursus maritimus is the polar bear's scientific name. It means sea bear. Commander C. J. Phipps, author of A Voyage Towards the North Pole, used it for the first time in 1774. It refers to the animal's close association with the Arctic's chilly waters and its sea ice. Later, the scientific name Thalarctos was accepted. It is a combination of the Greek, thalasso, meaning sea, and arctos, meaning bear of the north. In 1971, polar bear scientists returned to the bear's original scientific name, Ursus maritimus."

"text": "\"Ecotourism: Academic Requirements, Professional Outlook Ecotourism According to the International Ecotourism Society, Ecotourism can be defined as, \"\"responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and sustains the well-being of local people.\"\" Most ecotourism experiences are aimed at helping people to foster an appreciation of the environment, the conservation of wildlife, plants and resources, and respect and understanding of native peoples. The field is socially important because it provides a way for people to travel responsibly, and to learn about and respect the environment of these natural places. Ideally, Ecotourism professionals organize and execute an experience for travelers that demonstrates local environmental sustainability and cultural sensitivity. Besides being tour guides, Ecotourism professionals also travel to other countries and help the local people in ecologically-sensitive areas to set up their own ecotourism programs. Programs which are well-run can help to conserve natural resources, and can be an incentive for local people to preserve their resources, rather than exploit them. The Academic Requirements Ecotourism students study the basic aspects of tourism, such as the cultural, social and economic importance of travel, hospitality, ethics, and business. Then, students will look specifically at ecotourism, including sustainable development, environmental issues, outdoor and nature-based education, and ecological business. Students learn about natural resources, environmental history, conservation and community growth and development, as well as the practical aspects of ecotourism, such as planning trips, wilderness training and safety, and financial and business management. Sometimes linked with recreation management programs, Ecotourism students can also expect that travel and on-site training will be a part of many programs."

"text": "\"Info Barrel > Environment > Green Living Advantages and Disadvantages of Ecotourism By Economist Jul 17, 20120 Shares 0 0 0 0Overview of Ecotourism (Ecological Tourism)Before discussing the advantages and disadvantages of ecotourism, I believe it is best to come up with a clear concept and definition of what Ecotourism actually is (also commonly referred to as Ecological Tourism). There are numerous definitions surrounding 'Ecotourism' but I reckon the Collins Dictionary definition of 'Ecotourism' sums it up rather nicely: \"\"tourism that is designed to contribute to the protection of the environment or at least minimize the damage to it, often involving travel to areas of natural interest in developing countries or participation in environment projects \"\" [4413]. In looser words -- Ecotourism is a term used to describe the act of 'tourism' itself alongside the promotion of environmental friendliness and conservation of wildlife ( i.e nature ). For a more detailed overview and greater understanding of what ecotourism is really about then I highly recommend that you check out the fantastic speech from John Kasaona on 'How Poachers Became Caretakers'. Ecotourism Case Study: Namibia - 'How Poachers became Caretakers'Advantages of Ecotourism1. Environmental Conservation -- A Sustainable Choice The entire concept behind ecological tourism is for people to visit exotic landscapes and aid the protection and conservation of nature -- hence ecotourism offers an incentive for local people to help preserve and protect their environment and wildlife as it can provide them with a 'sustainable' income from tourism. This, as opposed to the exploitation of their surrounding environment for its natural resources --that can only be used to make a quick singular unsustainable gain with rather negative environmental impacts. ( Such a n example can be observed in the video above with the view of poachers - short term gain and caretakers - long term gain -- experienced in Namibia)2. Benefits to Local Small Business and People With the industry of tourism, comes an increase in the demand for local jobs and hence correspondingly an increase in employment for locals -- that are often provided through merchandise retailers, restaurants, tour guides, hotels etc. This then contributes towards boosting the local economy -- by meeting local people's economic needs as well as teaching them life-long commercial skills with the provision of experience and assistance -- therefore genuinely 'bettering' the welfare of local people and businesses.3. A Cultural Education Although most of the debate on the pros and cons of ecotourism lies around the environmental and economical aspects, it is also important to consider the cultural and social impacts also."

Since time began, countless species have gone extinct from natural processes. The extinction of dinosaurs is the best known example. Why save endangered species? If extinction is a natural process, why should we make an effort to save endangered species? Because we can no longer attribute the accelerating extinction of plants and animals to natural causes. Today most species of plants and animals become extinct because of habitat destruction (loss of living space to development or pollution), introduction of non-native organisms, and direct killing (over-harvesting, poisoning). Florida's endangered wildlife includes the American crocodile (Figure 1), loggerhead sea turtle (Figure 2), the West Indian manatee (Figure 3). Figure 1. Figure 2."

"text": "BENEFITS AND COSTS OF CLEAN AIR AND CLEAN WATERGovernment economists have estimated that U. S. firms may pay more than $200 billion per year to comply with federal environmental laws. That is big bucks. Is the money well spent? The benefits of a cleaner environment can be divided into four areas: (1) people may stay healthier and live longer; (2) certain industries that rely on clean air and water, such as farming, fishing, and tourism, may benefit; (3) property values may be higher; and (4) people may simply enjoy a cleaner environment in a way that does not need to involve a market transaction. Some of these benefits, such as gains to tourism or farming, are relatively easy to value in economic terms. It is harder to assign a monetary value to others, such as the value of clean air for someone with asthma. It seems impossible to put a clear-cut monetary value on still others, such as the satisfaction you might feel from knowing that the air is clear over the Grand Canyon, even if you have never visited the Grand Canyon. Although estimates of environmental benefits are not precise, they can still be revealing. For example, a study by the Environmental Protection Agency looked at the costs and benefits of the Clean Air Act from 1970 to 1990. It found that total costs over that time period were roughly $500 billion—a huge amount."

A Forest in The Middle of The City There are more than 3,300 hectares of forest with waterfalls, trails, animals and birds of different species, colorful butterflies and beetles, natural attractions beyond words and, besides all that, cozy trails where visitors can have a conversation, meditate, taste delicious samples of Brazilian or International cuisine, research cultural, historical, geographic or ecological themes, celebrate family or religious events. All this for those who love nature tourism and ecotourism. Floresta da Tijuca (Tijuca Forest) is Patrimony of Humanity and one of the Biosphere Reserves most representative among those that have received the distínction from UNESCO. Stretching over a large area on the south slope of Tijuca and Papagaio peaks, towards Pedra do Conde, and once reaching Alto da Boa Vista going down to Açude da Solidão, the forest is even more remarkable because of its historical formation, its symbiosis with the city of Rio de Janeiro and its proximity to the urban center. A little deeper knowledge of the geological formation of the region occupied by Tijuca Florest will show that its emergence involves the hills and peaks reflected on the splendorous waters of Guanabara Bay. Pico da Tijuca (Tijuca Peak), the most notable elevation in the whole massif is a granitic relief dating from the geological beginnings of the American continent. After that appeared stretches of the original forest in various shades of green. Having yet to be visited by humans, the forest was then occupied by an enormous variety of trees, plants, liana of all types and sizes, all that vegetation shading the springs, rivers, lakes and waterfalls. There were also mammals, reptiles, birds and butterflies."

It employs our sense of sight, smell, hearing, touch, and sometimes even taste to bring about a better understanding of the natural world. According to The International Ecotourism Society, ecotourism is defined as “responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the well-being of the local people.” Ecotourism unites conservation with local communities and incorporates important aspects of sustainable travel. It should minimize impact and provide a financial incentive for conservation. A Little History Costa Rica’s push towards ecotourism began with the establishment of the Cabo Blanco National Reserve in 1963 and the first national parks in 1971. The trend continued and today the Costa Rican park system includes 70 entities and protects over 3,221,000 acres (1,303,492 ha). In addition to this, there are private reserves that are operated by nonprofits and environmental groups. That leaves Costa Rica with over 30 percent of its national territory marked for conservation—one of the highest ratios in the world. Costa Rica also has the highest density of plant and animal species on Earth."

A parallel port is an interface allowing a personal computer (PC) to transmit or receive data down multiple bundled cables to a peripheral device such as a printer. The most common parallel port is a printer port known as the Centronics port. A parallel port has multiple connectors and in theory allows data to be sent simultaneously down several cables at once. Later versions allow bi-directional communications. This technology is still used today for low-data-rate communications such as dot-matrix printing. The standard for the bi-directional version of a parallel port is the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 1284. This standard defined bi-directional parallel communication between computers and other peripheral devices allowing data bits to be transmitted and received simultaneously.

Feel the wind in your hair as you drive 25 miles downtown to visit one of four fishing piers—great for sunset-gazing or a casual walk out to sea. For some serious shopping, Pier Park has one million square feet of private shops and boutiques unique to Panama City. If you’re in town in February, be sure to check out the Mardi Gras festivities that fill the downtown streets. Put your ECP car rental to good use and explore the 27 miles of crystal waters and white-sand beaches that have made Panama City famous the world over. For a quiet afternoon away from the crowds, head to Shell Island or St. Andrews State Park. If you want a livelier beach experience, Schooner’s has food, beach volleyball and lots of locals and tourists to mingle with. For an afternoon of unwinding or if you have clients to entertain, visit one of the area’s five championship golf courses."

"text": "Women’s Health Monday, February 27, 2012Exposure to Birth Control When Pregnant: Will My Baby Be OK? By Jane Harrison-Hohner, RN, RNPJust a few weeks ago one million packs of birth control pills were recalled by Pfizer, a well-known drug company, and more recently seven lots of Norgestimate and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets were recalled by Glenmark Generics Inc. In both cases, the apparent error had been in the packaging of the pills such that some placebo/sugar pills had been packaged in the area where active pills are supposed to be taken. While most women would note that there was a random mix of colors in the initial 21 days, it might be possible that someone might not question the color mix and could thus become pregnant. What would be the effect on her baby? Despite the effectiveness of modern birth control methods, some women do become pregnant while using contraception. What are the effects of the “morning after” emergency contraceptive pills, Depo Provera, Implanon, or IUDs on an early pregnancy? The purpose of this blog is to share with you what evidence we have about prenatal exposure to various types of contraceptives. Birth Control Pills (BCPs)According to a study done in Denmark, about 1% of pregnant women have used BCPs during the initial part of their pregnancies. In the U. S., BCPs are still the most widely used form of reversible birth control. Thus one would expect to see some obvious, consistent patterns of infant effects."

Photopheresis (ECP) is a type of medical therapy that can be used in treating patients with problems associated with cutaneous (skin) T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) such as mycosis fungoides (MF) or Sezary syndrome. ECP is also used to treat conditions including graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and organ transplant rejection. It was developed by THERAKOS©, a Johnson & Johnson company. Photopheresis treatments at Stanford Medical Center are given at the Cancer Center in the Apheresis Area. How does photopheresis work? The process requires the patient's blood to be temporarily drawn intravenously and then the white-blood cells (WBCs) are separated before the rest of the blood is returned to the patient. The WBCs are then mixed with a liquid medication called psoralen (UVADEX®), which makes the T-lymphocytes more sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) light, more specifically the long wavelength form called UVA. Afterwards, the WBCs are exposed to the UVA which promotes death of the diseased cells. Then the treated WBCs are returned to the patient."

More organizations are performing a fingerprint background check for housing or employment. This is how a fingerprint background check works. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Stores Fingerprints The federal government has many sources for collecting fingerprints, including processes from citizenship, employment, arrests and military service. Any data collected through written forms or spoken answers will be listed in your fingerprint background check. The most complete records linked to these fingerprints is stored with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Just like your social security number, your finger prints are used by the government to track information about you. When an organization wants your fingerprint background check for adoption, overseas travel, employment, licensing or housing, it can make the request from a state identification bureau, FBI channeler or the FBI directly itself.

One type, levonorgestrel (brand name Plan B One-Step; also look for Next Choice One Dose, Take Action, and My Way), has been on the market for a while. It works best up to 72 hours after having unprotected sex, but will reduce the risk of pregnancy if taken within 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sex. The other type, ulipristal acetate (brand name ella), can be taken up to 5 days after unprotected intercourse. Levonorgestrel ECPs are approved by the FDA to be sold over-the-counter without a prescription or age requirement. Ulipristal can only be purchased with a prescription, regardless of a person's age."

"text": "US, Canada jointly release crude-by-rail transportation rules WASHINGTON, DC, May 105/01/2015By Nick Snow OGJ Washington Editor The US and Canada simultaneously issued new regulations governing transportation of crude oil and other hazardous materials by rail. “Our close collaboration with Canada on new tank car standards is recognition that the trains moving unprecedented amounts of crude by rail are not US or Canadian tank cars—they are part of a North American fleet, and a shared safety challenge,” US Transportation Sec. Anthony Foxx said at a May 1 presentation at DOT headquarters. Canadian Minister of Transport Lisa Raitt, who also attended the ceremony, said it is critical that the requirements apply equally to tank cars in both countries because they cross the Canadian-US border daily. “ That is why the open and transparent process that was followed to jointly develop these regulations included consultations with government and industry stakeholders on both sides of our border,” she said. DOT said the final US rule, which its Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration and Federal Railroad Administration jointly developed in coordination with Canada:• Unveils an enhanced tank-car standard and an aggressive, risk-based retrofitting schedule for older tank cars carrying crude oil and ethanol.• Requires a braking standard for certain trains that will improve safety by potentially reducing an accident’s severity, and the “pile-up effect.”• Designates operational protocols for trains transporting large volumes of flammable liquids, such as routing requirements, speed restrictions, and information for local government agencies.• Provides sampling and testing requirements to improve classification of energy products placed into transport. Raitt said the new regulations will require tank-car manufacturers in both countries to build a new, safer tank car called the TC or DOT 117. Its design will include thicker steel shells and heads to improve puncture resistance and structural strength; shields to protect the car’s head from being punctured; thermal protection and a jacket to better withstand heat from fire; protective covers over valves and accessories on top of a tank car; and stronger bottom outlet valves to withstand derailments and prevent leaks. “Second, these regulations provide new performance-based standards to build the TC and DOT-117 models and establish the retrofit schedule for older tank cars,” Raitt said. “"

A: Weakened zonular structures, whether due to disease such as Marfan's or pseudoexfoliation syndrome, or to previous intraocular surgery, cannot withstand the natural stress of cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation. A CTR provides additional support to the capsule for stability during phacoemulsification. As of October 23, 2003 the FDA approved the Morcher CTR. The Ophtec BV CTR was approved on April 27, 2004. Some other CTR models are not FDA-approved. Q: What's the correct code for reimbursement for professional service? A: CPT code 66982 is defined as: \"\"Extracapsular cataract removal with insertion of an IOL prosthesis (one stage procedure), manual or mechanical technique (e.g., irrigation and aspiration or phaco-emulsification), complex, requiring devices or techniques not generally used in routine cataract surgery (e.g., iris expansion device, suture support for intraocular lens, or primary posterior capsulorrhexis) or performed on patients in the amblyogenic developmental stage.\"\" Inserting the CTR during cataract surgery satisfies the definition, making 66982 appropriate.

Progestin only contraceptives are another type of birth control pill. How Effective is the Pill in Preventing Pregnancy? With typical use, about 8 women out of 100 who take the pill may become pregnant in 1 year. This means it is about 92 percent effective in preventing pregnancy. If you take the pill exactly as directed (correct and consistent use), less than 1 out of 100 may become pregnant in 1 year. How Do I Start the Pill?

The Commodity Exchange Act outlines the requirements for eligibility, stating that those seeking to become eligible contract participants must have sufficient regulated status or a specified amount of assets. ECPs are usually corporations, partnerships, proprietorships, organizations, trusts, or other entities that have total assets exceeding $10 million. Next Up Eligible Commercial Entity Electronic Check Presentment - ... Approved Participants Derivatives Transaction Execution ... BREAKING DOWN 'Eligible Contract Participant'Eligible contract participants include financial institutions, insurance companies, commodity pools and wealthy individuals. These participants are generally classified as professional investors, and are authorized to engage in complex stock or futures transactions such as block trades, structured products, exchanging excluded commodities and transacting on a derivatives transaction execution facility. Becoming an eligible contract participant provides a person or group with a wider range of investment choices and financial options than would be available to a standard investor. This allows for what is commonly known as exotic trading strategies in an attempt to earn superior investment returns. Unlike ordinary retail clients, individual ECP's can trade with margin. To do so, you need to be an individual who has amounts invested on a discretionary basis, the aggregate of which is in excess of $5 million and you enter into margin trading in order to manage the risk associated with an asset owned or liability incurred, or reasonably likely to be owned or incurred, according to GDAX.com. This also increases trading risks, because trading on margin magnifies both profits and losses."

( July 2011) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message)Jan Steen 's The Doctor's Visit, c. 1663A doctor's visit, also known as \"\"physician office visit,\"\" is a meeting between a patient with a physician to get health advice or treatment for a symptom or condition. According to a survey in the United States, a physician typically sees between fifty and one hundred patients per week, but it may vary with medical specialty, but differs only little by community size such as metropolitan versus rural areas. [ 1]Contents [ hide ]1 Procedure2 Duration3 Web-based health care4 See also5 References Procedure [ edit]The four great cornerstones of diagnostic medicine are anatomy (structure: what is there), physiology (how the structure/s work), pathology (what goes wrong with the anatomy and physiology), and psychology (mind and behavior). In addition, the physician should consider the patient in their 'well' context rather than simply as a walking medical condition. This means the socio-political context of the patient (family, work, stress, beliefs) should be assessed as it often offers vital clues to the patient's condition and further management. A patient typically presents a set of complaints (the symptoms) to the physician, who then performs a diagnostic procedure, which generally includes obtaining further information about the patient's symptoms, previous state of health, living conditions, and so forth. The physician then makes a review of systems (ROS) or systems inquiry, which is a set of ordered questions about each major body system in order: general (such as weight loss), endocrine, cardio-respiratory, etc. Next comes the actual physical examination and other medical tests; the findings are recorded, leading to a list of possible diagnoses."

"text": "Infusion free-flow apparently still a risk From the June 14, 2007 issue First reported in the late 1980s and early 1990s by ISMP and the ECRI Institute (1-3), accidental, uncontrolled free-flow of IV solutions after removal of administration sets from infusion pumps was recognized as a serious problem that led to death and patient injury. Free-flow events occurred when pump tubing was removed from the device while still connected to the patient, before closing the set’s manual tubing clamp. This resulted in a large volume of solution infusing rapidly into the patient, along with drug or nutrient overdoses if the infusions contained medications or parenteral nutrition. In response to this risk, manufacturers introduced free-flow protected tubing as a fail-safe to prevent gravity flow, by automatically clamping the set immediately upon its removal from the pump. In 2001, The Joint Commission surveyors began evaluating healthcare organizations’ use of infusion pumps with free-flow protection, and in 2003, it implemented a National Patient Safety Goal (NPSG) to promote free-flow protection with all general-use and patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) IV infusion pumps in the organization. This 2003 NPSG has, in essence, assured that manufacturers are no longer distributing non-protected devices. However, despite seemingly fail-safe interventions by device manufacturers, ISMP is aware of the potential for intravenous free-flow events if administration set tubing is misloaded in infusion pumps. Although subsequently addressed by the manufacturer, the problem was well documented in a 2006 article published in Anesthesiology, which described a free-flow event with the Alaris Medley Medication Safety System when the set was accidentally misloaded (4). More recently, in April 2007, Smiths Medical also sent a Safety Alert letter to its customers to warn about the risk of a free-flow event with certain administration sets if the tubing is improperly attached to the pump (visit www.ismp.org/resources/smithsmedical to read the Safety Alert). ECRI Institute also followed with a warning to its members about this risk."

"text": "Even before laparoscopic surgery took off around 1990, several companies, backed by U. S. defense grants, were at work on robotic surgical systems. Laparoscopic surgery has proven to be a significant medical advance, turning major surgeries that left scars and kept patients in the hospital for several days, into fairly minor procedures. As robotic surgical systems moved through research and testing, many doctors hoped the new technology would increase those advances. The companies building surgical robots were certainly optimistic. In product names like Zeus, Aesop, and da Vinci, one can hear great aspirations. Zeus and Aesop were both purchased by Silicon Valley manufacturer Intuitive Surgical, and dissolved. So the hope that robotic-assisted surgery advances hangs on da Vinci, which was first approved for clinical use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2000. For the 2016 fiscal year, Intuitive Surgical reported revenue of $670 million, beating investor expectations. The company also told Fortune magazine that in July “the number of procedures done with a da Vinci system jumped by 16 percent in the second quarter compared to a year earlier. ”The system doesn’t resemble a robot so much as a video game."

Why it’s so high, how it affects your wallet—and yes, what you can do about it Published: September 2014Photo: Benjamin Bouchet Person for person, health care in the U. S. costs about twice as much as it does in the rest of the developed world. In fact, if our $3 trillion health care sector were its own country, it would be the world’s fifth-largest economy. If you have health insurance, you may think it doesn’t matter because someone else is paying the bill. You’d be wrong. This country’s exorbitant medical costs mean that we all pay too much for health insurance. Overpriced care also translates into fewer raises for American workers. And to top it off, we’re not even getting the best care for our money. First, be aware that even if you have insurance, it doesn’t always fully protect you.

Recent fires have included a patient on O 2 who's hair and clothing started on fire while grilling (Hibachi) in his back yard; a patient in the OR who was burned when surgical drapes ignited due to oxygen and use of an ESU.

While the financial media also featured news from hedge fund gurus and Fed speakers, the divergence notion was an important theme all week. It will probably continue. Since I do not regard these divergences as an important leading indicator, the planning was helpful in doing some shopping. Forecasting the theme is an exercise in planning and being prepared.

See also CPB 0016 - Back Pain - Invasive Procedures, and CPB 0784 - Blood Product Injections for Selected Indications. Background Thermal Intradiscal Procedures Electrothermal intradiscal therapies (also referred to as thermal intradiscal procedures [TIP]) are percutaneous spinal procedures that are designed to treat back pain utilizing heat that is applied to the disc or disc wall (annulus). Several techniques have been introduced. The evolution of TIPs involved the use of electrical and radiofrequency energy to apply or create heat within the disc to treat discogenic pain. Percutaneous thermocoagulation intradiscal techniques involve the insertion and heating of a catheter/probe in the disc under fluoroscopic guidance (Urrutia et al, 2007). Derby et al (2008) stated, “The goals of thermal disc treatments are to remove unwanted tissue such as herniated discs, create a seal to limit expression of matrix components, shrink collagen tissue, and destroy nociceptors. Although intradiscal heating can be accomplished through a variety of means, including electrocautery, thermal cautery, laser, and radiofrequency energy (RFE), most current intradiscal thermal treatments are performed using RFE.”"

A Surgical Fires Primer Guidance [Jan 1992;21 (1):19-34]Virtually all operating room fires ignite on or in the patient, and about 10 surgical patient fires a year come to ECRI's attention through various medical and legal communications. These fires typically result in little damage to equipment, cause considerable injury to patients, and are a complete surprise to the staff. Some other potentially disastrous fires singe linen, hair, or instruments, but are quickly patted out and soon forgotten. The basic elements of a fire are always present during surgery. A misstep in procedure or a momentary lapse of caution can quickly result in a catastrophe. Slow reaction or the use of improper fire-fighting techniques and tools can lead to damage, destruction, or death. Given the tremendous potential for human and economic disaster resulting from surgical patient fires, it is surprising that perioperative fire prevention receives so little attention. Surgical fires are preventable, and their impact can be lessened through an understanding of fire and how to fight it. The following article identifies the basic elements of fire and discusses how to prevent surgical fires from starting."

Improved ICU care has resulted in many patients surviving acute respiratory failure to require prolonged mechanical ventilation during convalescence. Also, mechanical ventilation is increasingly used as a therapeutic option for patients with symptomatic chronic hypoventilation, with an increased effort to predict nocturnal hypoventilation to initiate ventilation earlier. There are continued efforts by ventilator manufacturers to improve home ventilators. These factors point to a likely increase in the number of patients receiving home mechanical ventilation in the United States. Unfortunately, there are no comprehensive databases or national registry of home ventilator patients—therefore the number of home ventilator patients is unknown. There are real challenges to providing mechanical ventilation in the home, which include caregiver training, adequacy of respiratory care, and reimbursement.discharge home ventilation safety tracheostomy. Introduction Mechanical ventilation in the home is not a new idea. Patients with poliomyelitis benefited from home mechanical ventilation by iron lung during the years before the 1950s. With the development of positive pressure ventilators, home use of these devices with tracheostomies emerged as a viable technology."

Two other pressure switches in the unit were also found to be damaged. The damage apparently occurred after the previous preventive maintenance inspection. Although the low-pressure alarm problem would have been detected if ECRI's Pre-Use Checklist for Anesthesia Units had been used, the malfunction had not been brought to the attention of the clinical engineering department in the hospital. Proper operation of pressure alarms is essential to rapid detection of high pressure, which may cause barotrauma, or low pressure, which could indicate a disconnection. Discussion The manufacturer of the ventilator and alarms investigated the problem and found that it was caused by Loctite, which had been applied to the pressure-setting screws of the pressure switches. The Loctite, which had been used to hold screw settings, caused the polysulfone plastic body parts of the switches to deteriorate and crack, releasing the pressure-compensating spring under the set screw and causing the switches to fly apart. The manufacturer's experience has been that the screws hold their settings without Loctite. Loctite, like other similar products, is available in different formulations for specific applications. For example, Loctite 404 can be used to join the ends of synthetic rubber O-rings."

Hospitals say they are receptive to the idea, despite concerns about malpractice liability and possible financial penalties for poor performance. In a flier drafted for the project, the government asks: “Have you recently experienced a medical mistake? Do you have concerns about the safety of your health care?” And it urges patients to contact a new “consumer reporting system for patient safety.” The government says it will use information submitted by patients to make health care safer. Federal officials say that medical mistakes often go unreported, and that patients have potentially useful information that could expose reasons for drug mix-ups, surgery on the wrong body part, radiation overdoses and myriad other problems that cause injuries, infections and tens of thousands of deaths each year. Hospitals and even some doctors say the proposal has merit. “ It’s a great concept,” said Nancy E. Foster, a vice president of the American Hospital Association. “"

In 1199 while taking part in a tournament at Ecry-sur-Aisne in the province of Champagne he heard Fulk de Neuilly preaching the crusade, and in company with Count Thibaud de Champagne and many other nobles and knights he took the cross. Unfortunately, the crusade got out of control, and the French knights, instead of co-operating with the pope, decided on a campaign in Egypt, and on their arrival at Venice entered on a contract for transport across the Mediterranean. Being unable to fulfil the terms of the contract, they compounded by assisting the Venetians to capture Zara in Dalmatia. In vain the pope urged them to set out for the Holy Land. They preferred to march on Constantinople, though Simon de Montfort offered energetic opposition to this proposal.

"text": "Overview Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a procedure, done under general anesthesia, in which small electric currents are passed through the brain, intentionally triggering a brief seizure. ECT seems to cause changes in brain chemistry that can quickly reverse symptoms of certain mental illnesses. ECT often works when other treatments are unsuccessful and when the full course of treatment is completed, but it may not work for everyone. Much of the stigma attached to ECT is based on early treatments in which high doses of electricity were administered without anesthesia, leading to memory loss, fractured bones and other serious side effects. ECT is much safer today. Although ECT still causes some side effects, it now uses electric currents given in a controlled setting to achieve the most benefit with the fewest possible risks. Why it's done Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) can provide rapid, significant improvements in severe symptoms of several mental health conditions. ECT is used to treat: Severe depression, particularly when accompanied by detachment from reality (psychosis), a desire to commit suicide or refusal to eat. Treatment-resistant depression, a severe depression that doesn't improve with medications or other treatments. Severe mania, a state of intense euphoria, agitation or hyperactivity that occurs as part of bipolar disorder."

"text": "ECTAlso found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Acronyms, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia .electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) [ e-lek″tro-kon-vul´siv] a treatment for mental disorders in which an electric current is used to produce convulsions. It is used primarily to treat depression or the depressive phase of bipolar disorder; it has also been used to treat some forms of schizophrenia and acute mania. This method does not provide the patient withany insight; therefore antidepressants are the treatment of first choice for depressed persons. However, those who do not respond to medication or are unable to take it often experience dramaticimprovement after electroconvulsive therapy. Formerly called electroshock therapy. The procedure begins with administration of an intravenous anesthetic such as methohexital or thiopental to induce general anesthesia and a muscle relaxant such as succinylcholine to prevent a peripheral seizure that could carry the risk of bodily injury. Electric current is then appliedunilaterally to the brain through an electrode placed on the skull. The goal is to produce a seizure in the central nervous system without causing any of the frightening manifestations of a grand malseizure; modern techniques using EEG recordings while administering ECT make this possible. Side effects occasionally include acute confusional state upon recovery from general anesthesia,which may last up to an hour. There may be a loss of memory, particularly of recent events."

"text": "Overview Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a procedure, done under general anesthesia, in which small electric currents are passed through the brain, intentionally triggering a brief seizure. ECT seems to cause changes in brain chemistry that can quickly reverse symptoms of certain mental illnesses. ECT often works when other treatments are unsuccessful and when the full course of treatment is completed, but it may not work for everyone. Much of the stigma attached to ECT is based on early treatments in which high doses of electricity were administered without anesthesia, leading to memory loss, fractured bones and other serious side effects. ECT is much safer today. Although ECT still causes some side effects, it now uses electric currents given in a controlled setting to achieve the most benefit with the fewest possible risks. Why it's done Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) can provide rapid, significant improvements in severe symptoms of several mental health conditions. ECT is used to treat: Severe depression, particularly when accompanied by detachment from reality (psychosis), a desire to commit suicide or refusal to eat. Treatment-resistant depression, a severe depression that doesn't improve with medications or other treatments. Severe mania, a state of intense euphoria, agitation or hyperactivity that occurs as part of bipolar disorder."

"text": "What is ECT? Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a procedure in which a brief application of electric stimulus is used to produce a generalized seizure. It is not known how or why ECT works or what the electrically stimulated seizure does to the brain. In the U. S. during the 1940’s and 50’s, the treatment was administered mostly to people with severe mental illnesses. During the last few decades, researchers have been attempting to identify the effectiveness of ECT, to learn how and why it works, to understand its risks and adverse side effects, and to determine the best treatment technique. Today, ECT is administered to an estimated 100,000 people a year, primarily in general hospital psychiatric units and in psychiatric hospitals. It is generally used in treating patients with severe depression, acute mania, and certain schizophrenic syndromes. ECT is also used with some suicidal patients, who cannot wait for antidepressant medication to take effect. How is it administered? ECT treatment is generally administered in the morning, before breakfast."

"text": "\"There is no guarantee that ECT will work for all people or for all kinds of mental illness. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE - an organisation that provides guidance on the best ways to treat ill health in the UK) says that: “It is recommended that electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is used only to achieve rapid and short-term improvement of severe symptoms after an adequate trial of other treatment options has proven ineffective and/or when the condition is considered to be potentially life-threatening, in individuals with:catatoniaa prolonged or severe manic episode” (guidance TA59 last updated 1 October 2009)There are variations in both the dosage of electricity that can be given during ECT, and the way ECT can be given (to one side, or both sides of the head). In any course of ECT that is given the number of treatments received and the gaps between these treatments varied. The people we spoke to had differing views about how effective ECT actually was. Some people responded extremely positively to ECT, e.g. their mood lifted, they got a “sort of a buzz”, they felt calmer or they had less invasive thoughts about self-harm. For some, it was the only thing that worked. For instance, David Z had had depression since he was a teenager but had managed it. When it got worse in his forties, he found that anti-depressant medication didn’t work and that ECT was the only thing that lifted his mood. Although Enid had felt depressed a lot during her life, she only had ECT after she retired when she found that she couldn’t do anything and was crying all the time. She now has maintenance ECT from time to time and finds it helps her a lot - she had a “big dip” in her mood when she stopped it."

"text": "ECT Problems Natasha Tracy Print Email ECT problems are nothing new. Electroconvulsive therapy, once known as shock therapy, has historically been plagued with problems. Electricity was used to invoke seizures long before electricity and the brain were understood. While modern machines and procedures are now used, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) problems still exist. As with any medical procedure involving general anesthesia, death is a possibility during ECT. This ECT problem is considered minor, however, as the risk is equal to that of any minor surgery, approximately 1 in 10,000 patients. 1The ECT problems of greatest concern are cognitive in nature. Possible cognitive problems include: Short or long-term memory loss Disorientation and confusion Slowing of information processing speed Very rarely, delirium Cognitive ECT problems tend to fade over time but some, like memory loss, may be permanent. ( more info on ECT side effects)ECT problems may also include nausea, headache, muscle pain and soreness right after treatment. Rarely, patients with co-occurring disorders may be at higher risk for other difficulties such as: asystole (heart stoppage), prolonged seizures and prolonged apnea."

"text": "\"Brain Stimulation Therapies Overview Brain stimulation therapies can play a role in treating certain mental disorders. Brain stimulation therapies involve activating or inhibiting the brain directly with electricity. The electricity can be given directly by electrodes implanted in the brain, or noninvasively through electrodes placed on the scalp. The electricity can also be induced by using magnetic fields applied to the head. While these types of therapies are less frequently used than medication and psychotherapies, they hold promise for treating certain mental disorders that do not respond to other treatments. Electroconvulsive therapy is the best studied brain stimulation therapy and has the longest history of use. Other stimulation therapies discussed here are newer, and in some cases still experimental methods. These include:vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (r TMS)magnetic seizure therapy (MST)deep brain stimulation (DBS)A treatment plan may also include medication and psychotherapy.

Treatments are typically administered by a psychiatrist and an anesthesiologist or anesthetist. Electroconvulsive therapy is generally administered in an inpatient setting, but can be administered on an outpatient basis in a facility with treatment and recovery rooms. It is usually administered 2 or 3 times a week, although ECT may be administered daily if tolerated."

"text": "What to Expect from an Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) Treatment By John Hauser, M. D. ~ 2 min read Electroconvulsive Therapy — or ECT as it’s commonly known — is a brief medical procedure that involves applying short electrical bursts to the brain through external electrode pads on your head. These electrical bursts create a seizure, which has been shown to help relieve symptoms associated with severe depression. The entire procedure lasts about 15 minutes, although you may be in the hospital for about an hour to include time for prep and recovery from the treatment. ECT treatments are usually grouped together in 6 to 12 treatments at a time, generally given three times a week for 2 to 4 weeks. The number of treatments you will need depends on the severity of your symptoms and how rapidly they improve. Before your first ECT treatment, your doctor needs to make sure the procedure is safe for you. Your psychiatrist will likely refer you to a physician for a physical examination, an electrocardiogram (ECG) to check your heart’s health, and laboratory tests (basic blood tests), to ensure there are no medical conditions that would preclude you from receiving ECT treatment. You may also be referred to an anesthesiologist to go over the risks associated with having anesthesia. Modern electroconvulsive therapy is administered under general anesthesia, to ensure it is a safe and pain-free experience. You will therefore be unconscious during the treatment."

It looks at how ECT works, why it is used, its effects and side-effects, and alternative treatments. Although a safe and effective treatment, ECT remains controversial and we have included some of the different views about it. Where there are areas of uncertainty, we have listed other sources of information that you can use. Important concerns are the effectiveness and side-effects of ECT and how it compares with other treatments. At the time of writing, these references are available free and in full on the Internet. What is ECT? ECT is a treatment for a small number of severe mental illnesses. It was developed in the 1930s and was used widely during the 1950s and 1960s for a variety of conditions. It is now only used for fewer, more serious conditions."

"text": "Treatment of mental disorders Historical overview Early history References to mental disorders in early Egyptian, Indian, Greek, and Roman writings show that the physicians and philosophers who contemplated problems of human behaviour regarded mental illnesses as a reflection of the displeasure of the gods or as evidence of demoniac possession. Only a few realized that individuals with mental illnesses should be treated humanely rather than exorcised, punished, or banished. Certain Greek medical writers, however, notably Hippocrates (flourished 400 bce ), regarded mental disorders as diseases to be understood in terms of disturbed physiology. He and his followers emphasized natural causes, clinical observation, and brain pathology. Later Greek medical writers, including those who practiced in imperial Rome, prescribed treatments for mental illness, including a quiet environment, work, and the use of drugs such as the purgative hellebore. It is probable that most people with psychoses during ancient times were cared for by their families and that those who were thought to be dangerous to themselves or others were detained at home by relatives or by hired keepers. Hippocrates, Roman bust copied from a Greek original, c. 3rd century bce; in the collection of the Antichità di Ostia, Italy. Courtesy of the Soprintendenza alle Antichità di Ostia, Italy During the early Middle Ages in Europe, primitive thinking about mental illness reemerged, and witchcraft and demonology were invoked to account for the symptoms and behaviour of people with psychoses. At least some of those who were deemed insane were looked after by the religious orders, who offered care for the sick generally. The empirical and quasi-scientific Greek tradition in medicine was maintained not by the Europeans but by the Muslim Arabs, who are usually credited with the establishment of asylums for the mentally ill in the Middle East as early as the 8th century."

An integrated approach Lifestyle changes Holistic therapies for anxiety & depression Psychotherapy Medications More resources According to Henry Emmons in his book The Chemistry of Joy, you should consider taking medications if you have any of the following symptoms: Severe depression that makes it hard to function in daily life or is accompanied by suicidal or self-destructive thoughts Moderate depression that has not improved within three to four weeks of trying natural therapies Mild depression that has not improved within six to eight weeks of trying natural therapies A severe sleep disturbance that does not improve with natural therapies Repeated episodes of depressions, especially if they occur without any particular trigger Working with medications As with psychotherapy and integrative therapies, medication should be individualized to your particular condition and physiology. Work with your provider to identify the type of medication that may work for your symptoms, and track the effect of the medication (s) closely. Medications can take weeks or even months to have an impact, and it sometimes takes a long time to find the correct type and dosage. In addition, your medication needs can change with time and circumstance, so it is important to keep paying attention to how you feel and how the medication impacts that. Cautions: Medications and nutritional supplements for depression and anxiety are best initiated slowly and increased to the ideal dose. Discontinuation of a medication should also be decreased slowly under the supervision of the prescriber. Medications for depression Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are medications that increase the amount of the neurochemical serotonin in the brain."

The full guideline gives details of the methods and the evidence used to develop the guidance. Box 1 Depression definitions (taken from DSM-IV)Subthreshold depressive symptoms: Fewer than 5 symptoms of depression. Mild depression: Few, if any, symptoms in excess of the 5 required to make the diagnosis, and symptoms result in only minor functional impairment. Moderate depression: Symptoms or functional impairment are between 'mild' and 'severe'. Severe depression: Most symptoms, and the symptoms markedly interfere with functioning. Can occur with or without psychotic symptoms. Note that a comprehensive assessment of depression should not rely simply on a symptom count, but should take into account the degree of functional impairment and/or disability (see section 1.1.4). This guideline is published alongside 'Depression in adults with a chronic physical health problem: recognition and management' (NICE clinical guideline 91), which makes recommendations on the identification, treatment and management of depression in adults aged 18 years and older who also have a chronic physical health problem.1.1 Care of all people with depression1.1.1 Providing information and support, and obtaining informed consent1.1.1.1 When working with people with depression and their families or carers:build a trusting relationship and work in an open, engaging and non‑judgemental mannerexplore treatment options in an atmosphere of hope and optimism, explaining the different courses of depression and that recovery is possiblebe aware that stigma and discrimination can be associated with a diagnosis of depressionensure that discussions take place in settings in which confidentiality, privacy and dignity are respected.1.1.1.2 When working with people with depression and their families or carers:provide information appropriate to their level of understanding about the nature of depression and the range of treatments availableavoid clinical language without adequate explanationensure that comprehensive written information is available in the appropriate language and in audio format if possibleprovide and work proficiently with independent interpreters (that is, someone who is not known to the person with depression) if needed.1.1.1.3 Inform people with depression about self-help groups, support groups and other local and national resources.1.1.1.4 Make all efforts necessary to ensure that a person with depression can give meaningful and informed consent before treatment starts. This is especially important when a person has severe depression or is subject to the Mental Health Act.1.1.1.5 Ensure that consent to treatment is based on the provision of clear information (which should also be available in written form) about the intervention, covering:what it compriseswhat is expected of the person while having itlikely outcomes (including any side effects).1.1.2 Advance decisions and statements1.1.2.1 For people with recurrent severe depression or depression with psychotic symptoms and for those who have been treated under the Mental Health Act, consider developing advance decisions and advance statements collaboratively with the person."

Major depression is a period of sadness, irritability, or low motivation that occurs with other symptoms, lasts at least two weeks in a row, and is severe enough to negatively affect one's life. Depression is not a sign of weakness or a character flaw. It is a real and treatable medical illness. These PET scans of the brain indicate low activity in a person suffering from depression compared to someone who is not depressed. Depression: Emotional Symptoms The most prominent symptoms of depression are usually a sad or irritable mood and/or loss of interest in all or most activities that used to be pleasurable. Patients may also experience guilt despite having done nothing wrong, as well as feeling worthless, hopeless, and/or have recurring thoughts of wanting to die, kill, or otherwise harm themselves, as in cutting or burning themselves. Depression Symptoms: Physical Depression can sometimes be associated with physical symptoms. Examples may include the following: Tiredness and low energy level Trouble sleeping, particularly early morning waking Sleeping too much Aches or pains, especially headaches, muscle cramps, or digestive problems (for example, stomachaches, diarrhea, or constipation) that do not improve even with pain focused treatment Feeling or seeming slowed down or agitated Depression can worsen many other medical problems, especially those that cause chronic pain."

Electroconvulsive Therapy is a Controversial Psychiatric Treatment By Kendra Cherry Updated October 12, 2017Share Pin Email Print An example of an ECT machine used during the 1960s. Image: Nasko/Wikimedia Commons Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a form of psychiatric treatment that involves inducing seizures with the use of electrical stimulation while a patient is under general anesthesia. Originally known as electroshock therapy, ECT was first introduced by a pair of Italian psychiatrists in 1938. However, the use of induced seizures to treat mental illness dates back as far as the early 1500s. It became a popular psychiatric technique during the 1940s and 1950s, particularly in the treatment of severe depression. Stigma attached to the use of ECT led to a decline in its use during the 1960s. The emergence of effective psychiatric medications to treat depression also contributed to its decline. Today, electroconvulsive therapy is still used as a treatment for cases of severe depression, mania and schizophrenia, although its use remains controversial.

"text": "Overview Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a procedure, done under general anesthesia, in which small electric currents are passed through the brain, intentionally triggering a brief seizure. ECT seems to cause changes in brain chemistry that can quickly reverse symptoms of certain mental illnesses. ECT often works when other treatments are unsuccessful and when the full course of treatment is completed, but it may not work for everyone. Much of the stigma attached to ECT is based on early treatments in which high doses of electricity were administered without anesthesia, leading to memory loss, fractured bones and other serious side effects. ECT is much safer today. Although ECT still causes some side effects, it now uses electric currents given in a controlled setting to achieve the most benefit with the fewest possible risks. Why it's done Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) can provide rapid, significant improvements in severe symptoms of several mental health conditions. ECT is used to treat: Severe depression, particularly when accompanied by detachment from reality (psychosis), a desire to commit suicide or refusal to eat. Treatment-resistant depression, a severe depression that doesn't improve with medications or other treatments. Severe mania, a state of intense euphoria, agitation or hyperactivity that occurs as part of bipolar disorder."

"text": "\"A germ layer is a group of cells in an embryo that interact with each other as the embryo develops and contribute to the formation of all organs and tissues. All animals, except perhaps sponges, form two or three germ layers. The germ layers develop early in embryonic life, through the process of gastrulation. During gastrulation, a hollow cluster of cells called a blastula reorganizes into two primary germ layers: an inner layer, called endoderm, and an outer layer, called ectoderm. Diploblastic organisms have only the two primary germ layers; these organisms characteristically have multiple symmetrical body axes (radial symmetry), as is true of jellyfish, sea anemones, and the rest of the phylum Cnidaria. All other animals are triploblastic, as endoderm and ectoderm interact to produce a third germ layer, called mesoderm. Together, the three germ layers will give rise to every organ in the body, from skin and hair to the digestive tract. Gastrulation differs across species, but the general process is the same: the hollow ball of cells that forms the blastula differentiates into layers. The first phase of gastrulation produces a two-layered organism comprised of ectoderm and endoderm. The ectoderm will form the outer components of the body, such as skin, hair, and mammary glands, as well as part of the nervous system."

"text": "\"Animal development: Gastrulation Animal development: Neurulation and organogenesis Gastrulation\"\"It is not birth, marriage, or death, but gastrulation , which is truly the most important time in your life. \"\" Lewis Wolpert (1986)During gastrulation, cell movements result in a massive reorganization of the embryo from a simple spherical ball of cells, the blastula, into a multi-layered organism. During gastrulation, many of the cells at or near the surface of the embryo move to a new, more interior location. The primary germ layers (endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm) are formed and organized in their proper locations during gastrulation. Endoderm, the most internal germ layer, forms the lining of the gut and other internal organs. Ectoderm , the most exterior germ layer, forms skin, brain, the nervous system, and other external tissues. Mesoderm, the the middle germ layer, forms muscle, the skeletal system, and the circulatory system. This fate map diagram of a Xenopus blastula shows cells whose fate is to become ectoderm in blue and green, cells whose fate is to become mesoderm in red, and cells whose fate is to become endoderm in yellow . Notice that the cells that will become endoderm are NOT internal!from LIFE: The Science of Biology, Purves et al, 1998Although the details of gastrulation differ between various groups of animals, the cellular mechanisms involved in gastrulation are common to all animals. Gastrulation involves changes in cell motility, cell shape, and cell adhesion."

"text": "Instructor: Joshua Anderson Gastrulation is a key process in embryonic development - it's how a simple ball of cells begins to grow into a fully functioning being! Watch this lesson to learn about a key process in the development of almost all multicellular organisms. Gastrulation Sponges are the only multicellular animals that do not contain multiple tissues Today we're going to talk about how the early vertebrate embryo transforms itself from a very simple ball of cells into a more complex embryo with multiple layers of different cell types. We're going to talk about gastrulation, which is the process that results in the formation of three distinct germ layers in the early embryo. Gastrulation is a necessary process that occurs in all multicellular organisms except for sponges. Sponges are unique among multicellular animals in that they do not contain multiple tissue types; their entire body is composed of basically one type of cell. Because they do not need to differentiate their cells, they also do not need to go through the process of gastrulation. However, all other animals do need to differentiate their cells, and the first step in this process is gastrulation, which is accomplished in different ways in different species. Gastrulation in Frogs In some animals that lay eggs, such as frogs, gastrulation is accomplished when the hollow blastula invaginates to form an inner layer of cells called the endoderm and an outer layer of cells called the ectoderm. A third, middle layer of cells called the mesoderm is formed as cells begin to populate the space between the endoderm and the ectoderm."

In bacteria, the single cell itself functions as an organism performing all the functions like feeding, movement, reproduction etc. But think of a blue whale or ourselves, trillions of cells are present, all interacting with each other harmoniously to keep us alive. This journey towards this wonderful, giant structure had a humble beginning, which is from single cell or what we call, the zygote. In multi-celled organism, each task of life is carried out by different types of cells say nerve cell, cardiac cell, muscle cell, epithelial cells all differ in their appearance and function, but originated from the same parental cell, the zygote. These specialized cells are formed by a process called differentiation. Definition: Cell differentiation? Cell differentiation is the process by which genetically identical cells of an embryo become specialized or the process by which stable differences arise between cells of the embryo. Let us have a look at human ontogeny. From a fertilized egg, at least 250 distinct types of differentiated cells are present in adults."

"text": "\"Previous (Gerhard Schröder) Next (Germaine Greer)Organs derived from each germ layer. Image from NCBI. Germ layer is any of three cellular layers formed during animal embryogenesis that give rise through further differentiation to the various structures ( organs, tissues) of the organism. These three primitive collections of cells, or first tissues, are the ectoderm (cells on the outside), endoderm (cells on the inside), and mesoderm (cells on the inside). Germ layers are nearly universal in animals. All animals more complex than sponges produce two or three primary germ layers (primary tissue layers). Those that produce two germ layers (the ectoderm and endoderm), the cnidarians, are called diploblastic. Animals that produce a third layer between these two layers (appropriately called the mesoderm) are termed triploblastic. The development of these primitive germ layers provides the foundation for the development of all the organs and tissues of organisms. The endoderm develops into such organs as the stomach, liver, lungs, and intestines, while the mesoderm forms structures such as the skeleton, spleen, heart, and blood ( lymph cells, and ectoderm differentiates into the central nervous system, the lens of the eye, the epidermis, hair, and mammary glands."

"text": "\"By Sarah Ly Published: 2011-03-03 Keywords: Differentiation Embryonic differentiation is the process of development during which embryonic cells specialize and diverse tissue structures arise. Animals are made up of many different cell types, each with specific functions in the body. However, during early embryonic development, the embryo does not yet possess these varied cells; this is where embryonic differentiation comes into play. The differentiation of cells during embryogenesis is the key to cell, tissue, organ, and organism identity. Once an egg is fertilized by a sperm, a zygote is formed. The zygote divides into multiple cells in a process known as cleavage, triggering the beginning of embryonic differentiation. During cleavage, the zygote divides but maintains its size in the process. This zygotic division produces blastomeres which later make up the hollow sphere known as the blastula. Cells migrate within the blastula to locations that will later define the structure of the embryo and consequent organism. In this process, called gastrulation, three germ layers arise: the endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm."

"text": "neural tube Most of the neural tube is formed by folding and closure of the neural plate, a region of thickened ectoderm. This process is called neurulation. Neural crest cells migrate away from the site of closure, and play an important part in the development of the peripheral nervous system, head and neck structures, and the pigment cells of the skin. Interestingly, the most caudal tip of the future spinal cord develops by a different process: the neural plate closes at its caudal end (caudal neuropore), and a solid cord of cells is built onto the end of the existing neural tube. A central lumen then develops within this cord secondarily. There is a complex transitional region where the neural plate method of development gives way to the second method of neural tube development, and sometimes errors occur in this process (spina bifida). The following illustrations show formation of the neural tube and brain. Embryonic disc, with sections through the primitive streak and neural plate Ectodermal cells are migrating through the primitive streak (upper right) to enter the space between the ectoderm and endoderm and form the mesodermal layer. Mesodermal cells form the compact, rod-like notochord which extends forwards beneath a thickened region of the ectoderm called the neural plate. Folding of the neural plate The neural plate begins to fold, forming the neural groove, and the edges of the groove rise up towards each other."

Internal: the cardiac loop is appearing; the laryngeotracheal sulcus develops; the intermediate mesoderm becomes visible. SIZE AND AGEThe chorion generally has a diameter of 8–15 mm. The greatest length of the embryo, although not of great informational value (Bartelmez and Evans, 1926), is usually 1.5–3 mm. The age is approximately 22 postovulatory days. A brief review of stage 10 was published by Heuser and Corner (1957), and a detailed investigation of this stage was undertaken by Müller and O'Rahilly (1985), who provided graphic reconstructions. Both of these publications contain an appropriate bibliography. EXTERNAL FORM (figs. 10-1 and 10-2)The criterion for stage 10 is the presence of 4–12 pairs of somites. This stage is particularly important because, during it,the neural tube first begins to be formed from the neural folds and groove."

It is adjacent to the connecting stalk and called the Primitive Streak. It forms because epithelial cells begin to migrate into this area within the plane of the epiblast. The streak elongates as cells accumulate caudal to the streak, so it grows cranial to caudal. It signifies the beginning of the caudal-cranial layers.

Formation of the primitive streak is the beginning of gastrulation. It is followed by organogenesis—when individual organs develop within the newly-formed germ layers. The ectoderm layer will give rise to neural tissue, as well as the epidermis. The mesoderm develops into somites that differentiate into skeletal and muscle tissues, the notochord, blood vessels, dermis, and connective tissues.

"text": "Click here to launch the Simbryo Limb Development animation (and some really trippy music -you'll understand once the window opens...)I. Limb elements arise from paraxial ( somitic) and lateral plate mesoderm From paraxial mesoderm (i.e. somites): Dermatome gives rise to connective tissue of the dermis Myotome gives rise to limb muscles From lateral plate mesoderm: Bones of arm, forearm, hand, thigh, leg and foot Blood vessels Connective tissue (except for that of the dermis) ( Peripheral nerve elements, of course, are derived from neural crest)II. Development of limb bones is via endochondral ossification Mesenchyme begins to condense into chondrocytes Chondrocytes form a model of the prospective bone Blood vessels invade the center of the model, where osteoblasts localize, and proliferation is restricted to the ends (epiphyses)Chondrocytes toward the shaft (diaphysis) undergo hypertrophy and apoptosis as they mineralize the surrounding matrix. Growth of the long bones continues into early adulthood and is maintained by FGF-dependent proliferation of chondrocytes in the growth plates (long bones have two growth plates, in smaller bones (phalanges), there is only one at the tip).-- Achondroplastic dwarfism occurs when there are defects in FGF signaling or anything related to chondrocyte proliferation and results in shortened limb bones due to premature closure of epiphyseal growth plates III. Limb growth and patterning A. Much of the initial growth and patterning of the limbs occurs during weeks 4 – 8. Limb buds appear at about 4 weeks and much of the basic structures of the limbs (bones and muscle groups) are established by 8 weeks . After 8 weeks, the limb elements then just increase in size. B. Disruption of growth and/or patterning can result in many possible defects: Amelia: absence of an entire limb (e.g. early loss of Fgf signaling)Meromelia: absence of part of a limb (e.g. later or partial loss of Fgf signaling)Phocomelia: short, poorly formed limb (e.g. partial loss of Fgf; or Hox disruption)Adactyly: absence of digits (e.g. even later loss of Fgf)Ectrodactyly: “Lobster-Claw” deformity (variant of adactyly –middle digit is lost)Polydactyly: extra digits (disruption –usually upregulation – of Shh pathway)Syndactyly: fusion of digits (BMP or Shh disruption)C. Patterning, growth, and maturation of the limbs occurs along proximal-distal, anterior (rostral)-posterior (caudal), and dorsal-ventral axes. Because of all of the complexity, limb defects are among the most common of all birth defects with an overall incidence of 1:200 of all live births. D. Proximo-distal growth and patterning: Limb outgrowth initiated by the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) at the tip of the limb buds and proceeds from proximal (i.e. shoulder or hip) to distal (i.e. hand or foot); i.e. proximal elements (humerus/femur) are formed prior to distal elements (ulna/tibia). This process is absolutely dependent on FGF signaling from the AER –anything that disrupts FGF signaling and/or formation and maintenance of the AER will result in arrested limb development Proximo-distal patterning of the limb elements is also dependent on HOX genes to specify each of the elements (e.g. HOX11A,D specifies radius and ulna whereas HOX12A,D specifies carpals)."

"text": "Formation of the neural tube consists of 3 successive stages of development THE NEURAL PLATE results from thickening and differentiation of ectoderm overlying the notochord. The ectoderm of the plate is called neuroectoderm and will give rise to the central nervous system, consisting of the brain and spinal cord The plate is wider at its cephalic end than at its caudal end and is formed, in humans, before the appearance of the first somite or about day 18 of development The ectoderm remains relatively thin at the periphery The plate is first seen cranial to the primitive knot and dorsal to the notochordal process. As the notochordal process elongates, the plate broadens and eventually extends cranially to the oropharyngeal membrane The notochordal process and paraxial mesoderm act as primary inductors for the differentiation of the embryonic ectoderm into the neural plate THE NEURAL GROOVE AND NEURAL FOLDS: the lateral edges of the neural plate elevate to form the neural folds. The neural groove develops as a result of invagination of the neural plate along its central axis, between the neural folds (about day 18)The neural tube: the neural folds move together, fuse by the end of week 3, and convert the plate into a tube (also called the neurula stage)The ectoderm thus is separated from the nervous tissue to form the surface ectoderm. Between the 2, mesenchymal cells gradually infiltrate The 3 stages (plate, groove and folds, and tube) all coexist at the same time in different regions of the embryo CLOSURE OF THE NEURAL GROOVE, at about day 21, in humans, takes place near the fourth somite (future cervical region), which is in the middle portion of the embryo, and progresses toward both its cephalic and caudal ends Two orifices at the ends of the neural tube persist for a relatively short period of time and are called the anterior and posterior neuropores. They temporarily form open connections between the neural tube lumen and the amniotic cavity THE ANTERIOR NEUROPORE indicates the area of the lamina terminalis and closes about day 25 or the 18-to-20-somite stage B. THE POSTERIOR NEUROPORE closes at about day 28 or the 25-somite stage The neural crests: when the neural folds fuse and, before the neural groove closes completely, some neuroectodermal cells detach themselves from the region where the neural tube borders on the ectoderm (lateral edges of the neural plate). These groups of cells are not incorporated into the neural tube, but form a neural crest over the tube THE CRESTS are distinct from both the neural tube as well as the overlying ectoderm after the neural groove is closed. They form longitudinal tracts which extend from the middle brain regions of the neural tube to its caudal end THE NEURAL CRESTS soon fragment into segments that give rise to the primordia of the ganglia . The segmentation corresponds to that of the somites, with each ganglionic primordium corresponding to a muscle primordium. The ganglia later give rise to general sensory innervation, and the corresponding level of the spinal cord gives motor innervation to the muscles Derivatives of the neural crests Ectomesenchyme is the result of mesenchymal differentiation of neuroblastic cells and is therefore of ectodermal origin."

The cells within a tissue share a common embryonic origin. Microscopic observation reveals that the cells in a tissue share morphological features and are arranged in an orderly pattern that achieves the tissue’s functions. From the evolutionary perspective, tissues appear in more complex organisms. For example, multicellular protists, ancient eukaryotes, do not have cells organized into tissues. Although there are many types of cells in the human body, they are organized into four broad categories of tissues: epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous. Each of these categories is characterized by specific functions that contribute to the overall health and maintenance of the body. A disruption of the structure is a sign of injury or disease. Such changes can be detected through histology, the microscopic study of tissue appearance, organization, and function."

Asymmetric division of stem cells results in the production of only one stem cell and a progenitor cell with limited self-renewal potential. Progenitor cells that are produced via asymmetric cell division will go through additional rounds of cell division until they are terminally differentiated into a mature, specialized cell. Asymmetric division can be controlled by both intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Intrinsic factors involve differing amounts of cell-fate determinants being distributed into each daughter cell, while extrinsic factors involve interactions with neighboring cells and the micro and macro environment of the precursor cell. Key Termstotipotency: the ability of a cell to produce differentiated cells upon divisionprogenitor cell: a biological cell that, like a stem cell, has a tendency to differentiate into a specific type of cell, but is already more specific than a stem cell and is pushed to differentiate into its “target” cell.autologous: derived from part of the same individual (i.e. from the recipient rather than the donor)morula: a spherical mass of blastomeres that forms following the splitting of a zygote; it becomes the blastulapluripotent: able to develop into more than one mature cell or tissue type, but not all Adding cells through cellular division Stem cells are undifferentiated biological cells found in multicellular organisms, that can differentiate into specialized cells (asymmetric division) or can divide to produce more stem cells (symmetric division). In mammals, there are two broad types of stem cells: embryonic stem cells, which are isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts, and adult stem cells, which are found in various tissues. In adult organisms, stem cells and progenitor cells act as a repair system for the body by replenishing adult tissues. In a developing embryo, stem cells can differentiate into all of the specialized cells (including ectoderm, endoderm and mesoderm cells) but also maintain the normal turnover of regenerative organs, such as blood, skin, or intestinal tissues."

"text": "\"Terraria Bosses List Strategy Guides for Boss Fights The Moon Lord - final boss of Terraria 1.3 - is summoned after the Lunar Event has been completed Beating Bosses in Terraria is a key measure of success and unlocks more aspects of the game within a specific world. In many cases, you require defeating a boss in order to advance in the game, as with the Wall of Flesh and mechanical bosses of Hard Mode. Thankfully, bosses can be summoned at will if you have the materials necessary to craft the summoning item. The goal of this guide is to link you to helpful information so that you can slay each boss and unlock more content in your world. Bosses are listed in the order most players will encounter them, though your experience may vary slightly. See Also: Summoning Items Guide & Boss Arenas If you want only boss summoning items, I have a list for that, which includes where to get each of the required crafting items. I've also got a guide to making a Boss Fight Arena fit for the Moon Lord, which allows for many of the buffs you can provide to your character in order to get an advantage during battle. Debuffs I've made a list of debuffs that will or won't work on Bosses in Terraria. If you plan to use On Fire!, Poison, Ichor, Venom, Cursed Flames, or Frostburn in boss fights, this may be helpful to you."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedianavigation search Amoeboid movement is the most common mode of locomotion in eukaryotic cells. [ 1] It is a crawling-like type of movement accomplished by protrusion of cytoplasm of the cell involving the formation of pseudopodia (\"\"false feet\"\") and posterior uropods. One or more pseudopodia may be produced at a time depending on the organism, but all amoeboid movement is characterized by the movement of organisms with an amorphous form that possess no set motility structures. Movement occurs when the cytoplasm slides and forms a pseudopodium in front to pull the cell forward. This type of movement has been linked to changes in action potential, though the exact mechanism is still unknown. Some examples of organisms that exhibit this type of locomotion are the amoeboids, slime molds and some protozoans such as Naegleria gruberi, [2] as well as some cells in humans such as leukocytes. Sarcomas, or cancers arising from connective tissue cells, are particularly adept at amoeboid movement, thus leading to their high rate of metastasis. While several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the mechanism of amoeboid movement, the exact mechanism is still unknown.

Its origin is ancient; records of a type of simple valveless trumpet are found in China from as early as 2000 B. C., and it is mentioned in the Bible and in Greek and Roman history. It attained its present shape early in the 15th cent., at which time it became an important ceremonial instrument. It was used in the opera orchestra as early as Monteverdi's Orfeo (1607) and became a standard orchestral instrument later in thecentury. At this time the trumpet lacked valves, and a highly developed technique existed for playing in the upper register of the instrument, where a complete diatonic scale was available. The trumpetparts of Bach and Handel were written for such a style. Later in the 18th cent. this bright quality wasnot desired, and the trumpet was used more in its lower register. The instrument will accept a mutemute, in music, device designed to diminish uniformly the loudness of a musical instrument."

"text": "\"ectoplasm Ectoplasm is stuff that allegedly oozes from ghosts or spirits and makes it possible for them to materialize and perform feats of telekinesis, such as lifting tables in the dark (the stuff was sometimes called teleplasmic mass). In the heyday of séances —the 19th and early 20th centuries—ectoplasm oozed from various orifices of mediums (known as physical or materializing mediums). A bit of white cloth-like ( very cloth-like) material oozing from someone's mouth, ears, or nose was considered strong evidence for the afterlife by those who think spirits are not dwelling in Heaven or Hell or some other distant gated community but are floating around the earth trying to give us material hints of their existence. Most photographs of ectoplasm make it look like the kind of stuff you could pick up at the local yardage store or buy from Amazon. One of the more notorious materializing mediums in America was Mina Crandon, wife of Dr. Le Roi Goddard Crandon, a physician who had been mesmerized by the story of the belle of Belfast, materializing medium Kathleen Goligher (Christopher 1975: 192). Goligher's story was told by William Jackson Crawford, a rather odd paranormal investigator—Houdini thought he was insane—with an underwear obsession (Roach 2005: 132 ff.). Whether he was mentally unbalanced or not, Crawford was not the most astute investigator. He gives a detailed description of what he felt in the dark during a study of Goligher: \"\"...the part I felt was like bones, close together...or toes of feet \"\" but rather than conclude he was feeling her foot (which she was probably using to produce some sort of material effect), Crawford thought he was touching her \"\"psychic structure\"\" (Roach 2005: 133). When he examined imprints on putty that had been placed under the séance table and found imprints of a woman's shoe, a stockinged heel, or a big toe, it did not occur to Crawford that the imprints might have been made by a woman's foot. He thought they were made by psychic rods."

"text": "MALEVOLENT SPIRITS—Where do these dangerous, hostile, and evil entities come from? What is Wicca?“In the second half of the 20th century, a self-conscious revival of pre-Christian paganism occurred in the United States and Europe. The foundation of this revival was witchcraft, or wicca (said to be an early Anglo-Saxon word for witchcraft). Wicca is interpreted simply as the nature and fertility religion of pre-Christian Europe, which has been explored in books such as Charles Lelands Aradia: The Gospel of the Witches (1899)… Although they are now considered unreliable by scholars, such books gave inspiration to some people seeking spiritual alternatives. The writings of Englishman Gerald Gardner, who in his book Witchcraft Today (1954) claimed that he was a witch initiated by a surviving coven, imparted much of the alleged lore and rituals of English witches. Although his claims have been questioned, covens of modern witches sprang up under Gardners inspiration and spread to the United States in the 1960s. This form of witchcraftwith its feeling for nature, its colorful rituals, and its challenge of conventional religion and societyharmonized well with the countercultural mood of the 1960s and grew rapidly during that decade. Modern witchcraft continued to prosper during the subsequent decades. Many followers of the ecological and feminist movements found in Wicca a religion with congenial themes. … love of nature, equality of male and female, appreciation of the ceremonial, a sense of wonder and belief in magic, and appreciation of the symbolism and psychological realities behind the gods and goddesses of antiquity.…Increasingly, Wicca draws from many pagan traditions, with the result that the distinctions between witchcraft, occultism, neopaganism, and various strands thereof have become blurred."

This causes the lower eyelids to appear \"\"droopy\"\". Ectropion exposes the delicate conjunctival tissues that line the inner surface of the eyelids and cover the eyeball, causing drying of the tissues, resulting in conjunctivitis. The surface of the eye or the cornea may also dry out, resulting in keratitis (corneal inflammation) or corneal ulcers. All of these conditions are painful. Corneal damage can also result in corneal scarring, that can impair or obstruct vision. In most cases, both eyes are affected. Ectropion is usually diagnosed in dogs less than one year of age. Are certain breeds more likely to have ectropion?"

"text": "Cervical ectropion - Chronic Cervical ectropion, cervical erosion What is Cervical ectropion (cervical erosion)? Normally, the cervix looks pink and shiny. It has a hole in the middle, where the menstrual blood passes out from the uterus (womb) into the vagina. In some women, the area round the hole looks red and velvety instead of pink and shiny. If you have cervical ectropion, it means that some cells which are usually only found in the cervical canal were found on the cervix itself. It seems that cells on the cervix become columnar when there is a lot of the hormone oestrogen around. Therefore ectropion is most common in women on the contraceptive pill and during pregnancy. Cervical ectropion facts and information The condition usually goes away on its own, but if it doesn't, it can be treated by destroying the out-of-place cells in the same way abnormal cells are treated.

The most common cause of entropion that occurs in oldpeople (called involutional entropion) and only affects the lower eyelid is due to a combination of atrophy and weakening of the tarsus, loss of tone of the subcutaneous tissuesand loss of elasticity of the skin. Other causes are scarring (e.g. trachoma, Stevens-Johnsonsyndrome), burns of the palpebral conjunctiva (called cicatricial entropion) which may affecteither the upper or the lower eyelid, or spasm of the orbicularis muscle often resulting from an ocular inflammation or lid infection (called acute spastic entropion) which may subsidespontaneously once the original cause has been removed.

"text": "Description Sézary syndrome is an aggressive form of a type of blood cancer called cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas occur when certain white blood cells, called T cells, become cancerous; these cancers characteristically affect the skin, causing different types of skin lesions. In Sézary syndrome, the cancerous T cells, called Sézary cells, are present in the blood, skin, and lymph nodes. A characteristic of Sézary cells is an abnormally shaped nucleus, described as cerebriform. People with Sézary syndrome develop a red, severely itchy rash (erythroderma) that covers large portions of their body. Sézary cells are found in the rash. However, the skin cells themselves are not cancerous; the skin problems result when Sézary cells move from the blood into the skin. People with Sézary syndrome also have enlarged lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy). Other common signs and symptoms of this condition include hair loss (alopecia), skin swelling (edema), thickened skin on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet (palmoplantar keratoderma), abnormalities of the fingernails and toenails, and lower eyelids that turn outward (ectropion). Some people with Sézary syndrome are less able to control their body temperature than people without the condition."

Last updated Tue 6 September 2016By Christian Nordqvist Reviewed by University of Illinois-Chicago, School of Medicine Entropion is a medical eye condition in which the eyelid folds inwards. It usually affects the lower eyelid, but it can affect the upper eyelid. It is different from ectropion, in which the eyelid turns outward. Patients often go to see their doctor when they notice that eyelashes and skin are rubbing against the cornea of the eye, causing a watery eye, inflammation, discomfort, irritation, and sometimes pain. For some people, the eyelid turns in permanently, while for others, this only happens when they shut their eyelids tightly or blink hard. Entropion is normally due to a genetic issue. In some rare cases, the lower eyelid may have an extra fold of skin. Bilateral entropion is when both eyes are affected. Entropion is very rare in children and young adults."

Abnormal development of the hip causes excessive wear of the joint cartilage during weight bearing, eventually leading to the development of arthritis, often called degenerative joint disease (DJD) or osteoarthritis. The terms DJD, arthritis and osteoarthritis are used interchangeably. HD is a developmental disease meaning that it is not present at birth, but develops with age. Studies show a connection between excessive laxity and the development of DJD. Generally HD is considered to have a genetic base; giving the dog a predisposition to the way its hips are formed at birth and how much laxity is present in the joint. However, studies show that environment plays a large role as to whether DJD sets in. Dogs that may be predisposed to DJD may not develop symtems unless the dog has certain environmental influences. Proper nutrition and the avoidance of obesity are critical. Extensive or inappropriate exercise can also damage growing joints."

W. Sellors and R. Sankaranarayanan Chapter 1: An introduction to the anatomy of the uterine cervix Filter by language: English / Français / Español / Portugues / 中文The cervix, the lower fibromuscular portion of the uterus, measures 3-4 cm in length and 2.5 cm in diameter; however, it varies in size and shape depending on age, parity and menstrual status of the woman. Ectocervix is the most readily visible portion of the cervix; endocervix is largely invisible and lies proximal to the external os. Ectocervix is covered by a pink stratified squamous epithelium, consisting of multiple layers of cells and a reddish columnar epithelium consisting of a single layer of cells lines the endocervix. The intermediate and superficial cell layers of the squamous epithelium contain glycogen. The location of squamocolumnar junction in relation to the external os varies depending upon age, menstrual status, and other factors such as pregnancy and oral contraceptive use. Ectropion refers to the eversion of the columnar epithelium onto the ectocervix, when the cervix grows rapidly and enlarges under the influence of estrogen, after menarche and during pregnancy. Squamous metaplasia in the cervix refers to the physiological replacement of the everted columnar epithelium on the ectocervix by a newly formed squamous epithelium from the subcolumnar reserve cells. The region of the cervix where squamous metaplasia occurs is referred to as the transformation zone. Identifying the transformation zone is of great importance in colposcopy, as almost all manifestations of cervical carcinogenesis occur in this zone. A thorough understanding of the anatomy and physiology of the cervix is absolutely essential for effective colposcopic practice."

Ectropion (ek-TROH-pee-on) is when your lower eyelid turns or sags outward, away from your eye, exposing the surface of your inner eyelid. This condition can cause eye dryness, excessive tearing, and irritation. Ectropion may be due to several factors, including facial paralysis and injury. The most common cause is muscle relaxation due to aging. If you have symptoms of ectropion, you should seek medical attention. Without treatment, ectropion can lead to serious problems with your cornea and even blindness. Eye lubricants can help ease symptoms, but surgery is usually necessary to achieve full correction.

"text": "\"Sexual Health Reproductive Health Issues Overview of Cervical Ectropion Cervical erosion is not as alarming as it sounds By Tracee Cornforth | Reviewed by Meredith Shur, MDUpdated March 29, 2018Share Pin Email Print Voisin/Getty Images Cervical ectropion is a non-cancerous condition that occurs when the endocervix (the canal of the cervix) turns outward, exposing the cells that normally reside inside the cervix to the acidic vaginal environment. The everted or inside-out parts of the endocervix appear red, raw, and are often covered with a yellow discharge—this can be visualized by a doctor during a pelvic exam using a speculum. You may have heard cervical ectropion being called cervical erosion. Despite its name, the cervix is not actually eroding. Instead, those \"\"eroded-looking\"\" areas are parts of the cervix where the normal squamous cells of the outer cervix (ectocervix) are replaced by columnar cells of the inner cervix (endocervix). Causes of Cervical Ectropion In the past, it was thought that various types of physical trauma that caused infection might eventually lead to cervical ectropion. Such sources of trauma included sexual intercourse, the use of tampons, the insertion of a speculum, or the insertion of other objects into the vagina. Other assumed causes included sexually transmitted infections (STI) such as herpes or early syphilis. It was also thought that vaginal douches or other chemicals, such as contraceptive creams or foams, might cause cervical erosion. Today, these theories have lost ground as experts now believe that cervical ectropion is a normal anatomic phenomenon that some women are born with."

Etretinate (1 mg/kg/d) and isotretinoin (2 mg/kg/d) have been shown to reduce scaling, discomfort, and disfigurement. However, when these drugs are discontinued, the ichthyotic skin recurs, thereby necessitating long-term use. Similarly, liarozole (150 mg bid), an imidazole derivative, inhibits the cytochrome P450-dependent 4-hydroxylation of retinoic acid, resulting in increased tissue levels of retinoic acid and a reduction in epidermal proliferation and scaling. Patients with epidermolytic hyperkeratosis may develop chronic bacterial infections of the skin necessitating long-term antibiotic therapy. Patients with Sjögren-Larsson syndrome have a deficiency of fatty aldehyde dehydrogenase (FALDH). Data suggest that bezafibrate, a hypolipidemic drug, induces the activity of FALDH in patients with some residual enzyme activity. Ocular therapy In chronic ocular surface disorders associated with ichthyosis, nonpreserved artificial tears (carboxymethylcellulose sodium 0.5-1.0%) and ointment (white petrolatum 56.8%, mineral oil 41.5%) are preferred to prevent complications from dryness and exposure. Preservative-free lubricants may be used as often as needed while decreasing the incidence of preservative-related allergies. In cases where poor corneal epithelial adhesion is present, bandage contact lenses and temporary collagen shields may decrease symptoms and promote surface healing."

Jump Down to Section Types of Oculoplastic Surgery ↓ How to Prepare for Oculoplastic Surgery ↓Oculoplastic Surgery Procedures ↓ After Oculoplastic Surgery ↓Risks of Oculoplastic Surgery ↓ Talking to Your Eye Doctor ↓Oculoplastic surgery is a general term used to represent a variety of procedures that involve the orbit, eyelids, tear ducts, and the face. Ocular reconstructive surgery, aesthetic eyelid surgery, facial plastic surgery, and cosmetic procedures fall into this category. Some types of oculoplastic surgery are considered both medically necessary and cosmetic. For instance, certain eyelid and periocular issues can affect a person’s appearance as well as their vision, eye comfort, and eye health. Before you can undergo such surgery, your surgeon will check with your insurance company to determine whether your procedure is covered. An oculoplastic surgeon is an ophthalmologist who has completed additional training that focuses on the management of eyelid abnormalities, tearing problems, and orbital disease. Because of the potential out-of-pocket cost of an oculoplastic procedure for the patient, it is important that you ask your surgeon to thoroughly explain the benefits of your procedure. According to one study (Eye [London], 2012), patients who had undergone one of four commonly performed oculoplastic procedures derived significant quality-of-life benefits from it. These procedures included: Entropion repair, which corrects eyelids that fold inward Ectropion repair, which corrects eyelids that turn outward Ptosis repair, which corrects drooping of the upper or lower eyelid External dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR), which restores the flow of tears Most oculoplastic surgeries can be performed on an outpatient basis, which means you go home the same day and recovery is fairly quick. It is difficult to estimate the number of oculoplastic procedures performed in the United States each year."

Last updated Thu 7 December 2017By Markus Mac Gill Reviewed by Justin Choi, MDCauses Treatment Symptoms Exercises Tests A man is considered to have erectile dysfunction if he regularly finds it difficult getting or keeping a firm enough erection to be able to have sex, or if it interferes with other sexual activity. Most men have occasionally experienced some difficulty with their penis becoming hard or staying firm. However, erectile dysfunction (ED) is only considered a concern if satisfactory sexual performance has been impossible on a number of occasions for some time. Since the discovery that the drug sildenafil, or Viagra, affected penile erections, most people have become aware that ED is a treatable medical condition. Men who have a problem with their sexual performance may be reluctant to talk with their doctor, seeing it can be an embarrassing issue. However, ED is now well understood, and there are various treatments available. This MNT Knowledge Center article offers helpful information for people experiencing this problem, or those close to them. Fast facts on erectile dysfunction: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is defined as persistent difficulty achieving and maintaining an erection sufficient to have sex. Causes are usually medical but can also be psychological."

"text": "\"You are Here: Home Page > When Death is Sought > Chapter 5 - The Ethical Debate Chapter 5 - The Ethical Debate CHAPTER 5 THE ETHICAL DEBATE page 77 The ethics of assisted suicide and euthanasia are squarely before the public eye. A steady drumbeat of media attention and mounting concern about control at life's end have generated serious consideration of legalizing the practices. Public discussion has centered on the desire for control over the timing and manner of death, amidst warnings about the potential abuse or harm of overriding society's long-standing prohibitions against assisting suicide or directly causing another person's death. Concurrent with this public debate, but in many ways separate from it, has been the discussion of assisted suicide and euthanasia in the medical and ethical literature. In this debate, some assert that both assisted suicide and euthanasia are morally wrong and should not be provided, regardless of the circumstances of the particular case. Others hold that assisted suicide or euthanasia are ethically legitimate in rare and exceptional cases, but that professional standards and the law should not be changed to authorize either practice. Finally, some advocate that assisted suicide, or both assisted suicide and euthanasia, should be recognized as legally and morally acceptable options in the care of dying or severely ill patients. ( 1) An Historical Perspective For thousands of years, philosophers and religious thinkers have addressed the ethics of suicide. These debates have rested on broad principles about duties to self and to society as well as fundamental questions of the value of human life. Many great thinkers of Western intellectual history have contributed to this -------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Through most of this chapter, arguments are schematically presented as those of \"\"proponents\"\" of legalizing assistcd suicide and euthanasia and \"\"opponents\"\" of legalizing these practices."

"text": "Affirmative Action First published Fri Dec 28, 2001; substantive revision Tue Sep 17, 2013“Affirmative action” means positive steps taken to increase the representation of women and minorities in areas of employment, education, and culture from which they have been historically excluded. When those steps involve preferential selection—selection on the basis of race, gender, or ethnicity—affirmative action generates intense controversy. The development, defense, and contestation of preferential affirmative action has proceeded along two paths. One has been legal and administrative as courts, legislatures, and executive departments of government have made and applied rules requiring affirmative action. The other has been the path of public debate, where the practice of preferential treatment has spawned a vast literature, pro and con. Often enough, the two paths have failed to make adequate contact, with the public quarrels not always very securely anchored in any existing legal basis or practice. The ebb and flow of public controversy over affirmative action can be pictured as two spikes on a line, the first spike representing a period of passionate debate that began around 1972 and tapered off after 1980, and the second indicating a resurgence of debate in the 1990s leading up to the Supreme Court's decision in the summer of 2003 upholding certain kinds of affirmative action. The first spike encompassed controversy about gender and racial preferences alike. This is because in the beginning affirmative action was as much about the factory, the firehouse, and the corporate suite as about the college campus. The second spike represents a quarrel about race and ethnicity."

The philosophical study of psychiatry discusses conceptual, ethical, metaphysical, social, and epistemological issues that arise in all these aspects of psychiatry. Central to this study is the nature of mental illness. The central philosophical debate over mental illness is not about its existence, but rather over how to define it, and whether it can be given a scientific or objective definition, or whether normative and subjective elements are essential to our concept of mental illness. One desideratum for a successful definition of mental illness is that it will settle debates over particular purported mental illnesses. The connection between philosophical issues in the study and treatment of mental illness and these other areas of philosophy is in many cases obvious, as in the question of when and how people with mental disorders are responsible for their actions is connected with the insanity defense in law, and the more general debate over the justification of punishment. The philosophical investigation of the nature of mental illness is therefore relevant to many other areas of philosophy. While there is no sharp divide between the philosophical discussion of the nature of mental illness and the wider philosophical discussion of psychiatry, we can focus on four major issues that have preoccupied the philosophical literature.1. What is Mental Illness?2. How are Mental Illnesses Different from Physical Illnesses?3."

A: Because Viagra is a trademarked brand name for Pfizer’s formulation of sildenafil citrate, generic versions will be marketed simply as sildenafil citrate. This follows the standard procedure for generics that carry the name of the active ingredient. For example, generic formulations of the popular brand-name drugs Prozac and Plavix are known as fluoxetine hydrochloride and clopidogrel bisulfate, respectively. Q: How will generic versions of Viagra differ from the original? A: Under FDA regulations, generic versions of a drug must be bioequivalent to the medication for which they are alternative choices. To determine bioequivalence, testing laboratories measure the amount of drug present in the bloodstream after a generic drug is taken. If it is the same as the level of the brand-name drug at an identical dosage, then it is deemed bioequivalent. Q: Will generic formulations be identical to Viagra in all respects? A: No."

"text": "\"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Skin conductance)navigation search A sample GSR signal of 60 seconds duration Electrodermal activity ( EDA ), is the property of the human body that causes continuous variation in the electrical characteristics of the skin. Historically, EDA has also been known as skin conductance, galvanic skin response ( GSR ), electrodermal response ( EDR ), psychogalvanic reflex ( PGR ), skin conductance response ( SCR ), sympathetic skin response ( SSR) and skin conductance level ( SCL ). The long history of research into the active and passive electrical properties of the skin by a variety of disciplines has resulted in an excess of names, now standardized to electrodermal activity ( EDA ). [ 1] [2] [3]The traditional theory of EDA holds that skin resistance varies with the state of sweat glands in the skin. Sweating is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, [4] and skin conductance is an indication of psychological or physiological arousal. If the sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system is highly aroused, then sweat gland activity also increases, which in turn increases skin conductance. In this way, skin conductance can be a measure of emotional and sympathetic responses. [ 5] More recent research and additional phenomena ( resistance, potential, impedance, and admittance, sometimes responsive and sometimes apparently spontaneous) suggest that EDA is more complex than it seems, and research continues into the source and significance of EDA. The study of EDA has led to such important and vital tools as the electrocardiograph (ECG or EKG) and the electroencephalograph (EEG).

They stain with PAS but not with Alcian blue, colloidal iron, mucicarmine, or metachromatic dyes. Acid (simple, or non-sulfated) - Are the typical mucins of epithelial cells containing sialic acid. They stain with PAS, Alcin blue at p H 2.5, colloidal iron, and metachromatic dyes. They resist hyaluronidase digestion. Acid (simple, mesenchymal) - These contain hyaluronic acid and are found in tissue stroma. They do not stain with PAS, but do stain with Alcian blue at p H 2.5, colloidal iron, and metachromatic dyes. They digest with hyaluronic acid. They can be found in sarcomas."

"text": "Testimony Reducing Wasteful Federal Spending By Chris Edwards June 10, 2015Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs United States Senate Mr. Chairman and members of the committee, thank you for inviting me to testify today. My comments will examine the need to cut spending, the causes of budget waste, and the reasons why aid to the states is particularly inefficient. The Need to Cut Spending Without major reforms, federal spending and debt are expected to soar in coming years. The “alternative scenario” from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) shows that spending will grow from 20 percent today to 32 percent by 2040, while debt held by the public will grow from 74 percent to 170 percent. 1Those projections are disturbing enough, but they are optimistic for a number of reasons: Policymakers may continue to break the discretionary spending caps. The United States may face unforeseen wars and military challenges. The economy may have another deep recession. Future presidents and congresses may launch new spending programs. Interest rates may be higher than projected, thus pushing up interest costs. Rising spending and debt will suppress economic growth."

He is played by Suzuki Kazuma in the drama . Contents [ show]Appearance & Personality Edit In the Manga, Yokoya appears as a short, dark-haired japanese man with extremely squinty eyes that give him a rat-like appearance. This is embodied in his carrying of two pet mice during the events of the third round; a tangible display of his obsession with domination and his sadistic flair, as if he is metaphorically playing with his food. While his disdain for Akiyama is unmatched by any other character, even greater still is his vendetta against Kanzaki Nao, whose overly honest attitude and decision that everyone should get out of the game without debts enrages him, since he feels that the way his life has been playing out is directly opposed by Nao's existence. Despite all his flaws, Yokoya is an extreme threat to Akiyama, though he may just meet his match with Harimoto Takashi . In the Drama, Yokoya is a flamboyant, white-haired individual, but most of his character quirks remain the same. He does have the added habit of taking a pinch of snuff in place of having a pet mouse, however. It is also added that the reason Nao found out about Akiyama is because Yokoya asked Tanimura Mitsuo to make sure he got in the game. This is because he wants revenge for Akiyama's destroying his family's corporation, which is what landed Akiyama in jail in the first place."

Confidence Limits for the Mean Purpose: Interval Estimate for Mean Confidence limits for the mean ( Snedecor and Cochran, 1989 ) are an interval estimate for the mean. Interval estimates are often desirable because the estimate of the mean varies from sample to sample. Instead of a single estimate for the mean, a confidence interval generates a lower and upper limit for the mean. The interval estimate gives an indication of how much uncertainty there is in our estimate of the true mean. The narrower the interval, the more precise is our estimate. Confidence limits are expressed in terms of a confidence coefficient."

"text": "Oct13Test-driven design, a methodology for low-defect software I wrote earlier about the good practices in designing APIs, which is so important when developing complex software. However one usually does not have the chance to start a product from scratch. This means that more often than ever, a software manager picks up an existing tool with an existing team. Making the tool more efficient –better Qo R, faster runtime, smaller memory footprints, more stability, new features, etc— is made difficult by legacy code, awkward APIs, or plain wrong architecture. What to do then? We usually cannot afford to rewrite all or major parts of the product. Does that mean that we are stuck with an endless cycle of resource-intensive software incremental changes, often creating as many bugs that they are intended to fix? Defect rate First I would like to discuss the notion of software reliability and how it evolved over the past 40+ years. A defect causes an invalid behavior of a program with respect to its specification (e.g., incorrect output, performance issue, crash). One of many ways to look at software quality is to estimate its defect rate, i.e., the number of defects per line of code (loc), or more conveniently per 1,000 lines of code (kloc)."

"text": "\"Documentation Experimental Data Analyst Chapter 3 Experimental Errors and Error Analysis This chapter is largely a tutorial on handling experimental errors of measurement. Much of the material has been extensively tested with science undergraduates at a variety of levels at the University of Toronto. Whole books can and have been written on this topic but here we distill the topic down to the essentials. Nonetheless, our experience is that for beginners an iterative approach to this material works best. This means that the users first scan the material in this chapter; then try to use the material on their own experiment; then go over the material again; then ... EDA provides functions to ease the calculations required by propagation of errors, and those functions are introduced in Section 3.3. These error propagation functions are summarized in Section 3.5.3.1 Introduction3.1.1 The Purpose of Error Analysis For students who only attend lectures and read textbooks in the sciences, it is easy to get the incorrect impression that the physical sciences are concerned with manipulating precise and perfect numbers. Lectures and textbooks often contain phrases like: A particle falling under the influence of gravity is subject to a constant acceleration of 9.8 m/. If ... For an experimental scientist this specification is incomplete. Does it mean that the acceleration is closer to 9.8 than to 9.9 or 9.7? Does it mean that the acceleration is closer to 9.80000 than to 9.80001 or 9.79999? Often the answer depends on the context."

It is most commonly used in the design and verification of digital circuits at the register-transfer level of abstraction. It is also used in the verification of analog circuits and mixed-signal circuits, as well as in the design of genetic circuits.

There are two types of assignment operators; a blocking assignment (=), and a non-blocking (<=) assignment. The non-blocking assignment allows designers to describe a state-machine update without needing to declare and use temporary storage variables. Since these concepts are part of Verilog's language semantics, designers could quickly write descriptions of large circuits in a relatively compact and concise form. At the time of Verilog's introduction (1984), Verilog represented a tremendous productivity improvement for circuit designers who were already using graphical schematic capture software and specially written software programs to document and simulate electronic circuits. The designers of Verilog wanted a language with syntax similar to the C programming language, which was already widely used in engineering software development. Like C, Verilog is case-sensitive and has a basic preprocessor (though less sophisticated than that of ANSI C/C++)."

Bootstrap Plot Purpose: Estimate uncertainty The bootstrap ( Efron and Gong) plot is used to estimate the uncertainty of a statistic. Generate subsamples with replacement To generate a bootstrap uncertainty estimate for a given statistic from a set of data, a subsample of a size less than or equal to the size of the data set is generated from the data, and the statistic is calculated. This subsample is generated with replacement so that any data point can be sampled multiple times or not sampled at all. This process is repeated for many subsamples, typically between 500 and 1000. The computed values for the statistic form an estimate of the sampling distribution of the statistic. For example, to estimate the uncertainty of the median from a dataset with 50 elements, we generate a subsample of 50 elements and calculate the median."

COX is found in virtually everyone suffering from an inflammatory condition. Since most diseases, health ailments and premature aging are believed to be caused by inflammation, when you reduce inflammation in the body you correspondingly reduce these conditions!Author: Greg Montoya Pain is a side effect of inflammation. Th e olive oil health benefits are numerous especially from oleocanthal contained in olive oil that works similarly to ibuprofen in reducing inflamation. As a result pain is reduced. Oleocanthal could help reduce and even prevent inflammation thus reducing or even eliminating pain without the potential side effects of prescription or over the counter drugs!Most commonly used in the Mediterranean diet, the olive oil health benefits have been known for thousands of years and are just now starting to gain awareness in Western cultures. It’s believed that extra virgin olive oil could be largely responsible for the low rates of cancer and heart disease in parts of Europe and Greece. Monounsaturated fats and powerful antioxidants (polyphenols) are believed to be the contributing factor for these low rates. All of the internal olive oil health benefits provided by extra virgin olive oil can easily be realized by simply adding a small amount to your daily diet."

For example, in Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) there are three assumptions: Observations are independent. The sample data have a normal distribution. Scores in different groups have homogeneous variances. In a repeated measure design, it is assumed that the data structure conforms to the compound symmetry.

A schematic usually omits all details that are not relevant to the information the schematic is intended to convey, and may add unrealistic elements that aid comprehension. For example, a subway map intended for passengers may represent a subway station with a dot; the dot does not resemble the actual station at all but gives the viewer information without unnecessary visual clutter. A schematic diagram of a chemical process uses symbols to represent the vessels, piping, valves, pumps, and other equipment of the system, emphasizing their interconnection paths and suppressing physical details. In an electronic circuit diagram, the layout of the symbols may not resemble the layout in the circuit."

An attractive feature of the chi-square goodness-of-fit test is that it can be applied to any univariate distribution for which you can calculate the cumulative distribution function . The chi-square goodness-of-fit test is applied to binned data (i.e., data put into classes). This is actually not a restriction since for non-binned data you can simply calculate a histogram or frequency table before generating the chi-square test. However, the value of the chi-square test statistic are dependent on how the data is binned. Another disadvantage of the chi-square test is that it requires a sufficient sample size in order for the chi-square approximation to be valid."

For univariate data, there are three common definitions:mean - the mean is the sum of the data points divided by the number of data points.

In the concrete, however, the arrangement of these vertices and edges within a drawing affects its understandability, usability, fabrication cost, and aesthetics.

"text": "Using Events in Highly Distributed Architectures David Chou Summary: SOA succeeded in getting loose coupling at a technical level; now, let us go for the same at a business-process level. Contents Introduction Event-Driven Architecture Fundamental Principles Potential Benefits Aspects of Implementation State of the Art Conclusion Resources Introduction Many service-oriented architecture (SOA) efforts today are focusing on implementing synchronous request-response interaction patterns (sometimes using asynchronous message delivery) to connect remote processes in distributed systems. While this approach works for highly centralized environments, and can create loose coupling for distributed software components at a technical level, it tends to create tight coupling and added dependencies for business processes at a functional level. Furthermore, in the migration towards real-time enterprises, which are also constantly connected and always available on the Web, organizations are encountering more diverse business scenarios and discovering needs for alternative design patterns in addition to synchronous request-driven SOA. Event-driven architecture (EDA, or event-driven SOA) is often described as the next iteration of SOA. It is based on an asynchronous message-driven communication model to propagate information throughout an enterprise. It supports a more “natural” alignment with an organization’s operational model by describing business activities as series of events, and does not bind functionally disparate systems and teams into the same centralized management model. Consequently, event-driven architecture can be a more suitable form of SOA for organizations that have a more distributed environment and where a higher degree of local autonomy is needed to achieve organizational agility. This article discusses how EDA, together with SOA, can be leveraged to achieve a real-time connected system in highly distributed environments, and be more effective at understanding organizational state. We will then discuss a pragmatic approach in designing and implementing EDA, while considering the trade-offs involved in many aspects of the architecture design."

"text": "Oct13Test-driven design, a methodology for low-defect software I wrote earlier about the good practices in designing APIs, which is so important when developing complex software. However one usually does not have the chance to start a product from scratch. This means that more often than ever, a software manager picks up an existing tool with an existing team. Making the tool more efficient –better Qo R, faster runtime, smaller memory footprints, more stability, new features, etc— is made difficult by legacy code, awkward APIs, or plain wrong architecture. What to do then? We usually cannot afford to rewrite all or major parts of the product. Does that mean that we are stuck with an endless cycle of resource-intensive software incremental changes, often creating as many bugs that they are intended to fix? Defect rate First I would like to discuss the notion of software reliability and how it evolved over the past 40+ years. A defect causes an invalid behavior of a program with respect to its specification (e.g., incorrect output, performance issue, crash). One of many ways to look at software quality is to estimate its defect rate, i.e., the number of defects per line of code (loc), or more conveniently per 1,000 lines of code (kloc)."

They may also be used for changes in specifications. ECOs are also called an \"\"engineering change note\"\", engineering change notice (ECN), or just an engineering change (EC). In a typical system development cycle, the specification or the implementation is likely to change during engineering development or during integration of the system elements. These last-minute design changes are commonly referred to as engineering change orders (ECOs) and affect the functionality of a design after it has been wholly or partially completed. ECOs can compensate for design errors found during debug or changes that are made to the design specification to compensate for design problems in other areas of the system design. When improperly managed, engineering change orders can vastly increase costs."

CAD file interchangeability is a huge, huge headache in the field, so it has to be make uniform. Standard ISO 10303 is trying to solve this problem. This standard is informally known as “STEP”, which stands for “Standard for the Exchange of Product model data”. STEP-file (ISO 10303-21) is implementation method of STEP standard that can represent 3D object in Computer-aided design (CAD) and related information. Why we using a STEP AP214 file format for electronic components? We have decided to use STEP AP214 File for two reasons:it is really wide used and known data exchange form. Almost all Electronic Computer-aided design (ECAD) software tools for layout designs such as Altium Designer, Circuit Studio, Circuit Maker, Cadence – Or CAD/Allegro PCB Editor, Zuken – CR-8000, CR-5000 Board Modeler, CADSTAR, Pulsonix, Mentor Graphics – PADS, Dip Trace and many more platforms that we’re focused on, can import 3D models made in STEP file format.

Related to pulmonary edema: congestive heart failure, pulmonary embolism 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."

First of all it would be helpful to you if you knew about the various structures in the knee joint. This diagram shows the ligaments in the knee as seen from the front. Ligaments are a form of tough connective tissue which connect one bone to the other. Short forms used in your MRI report -: ACL - Anterior cruciate ligament PCL - posterior cruciate ligament Now explaining your MRI report -Points 1 & 2- Basically these ligaments provide stability to the joint. ACL functions to prevent the tibia bone from moving in front of the femur. PCL functions to prevent the femur from moving in front of the tibia. So a tear in these ligaments will result in pain, swelling and tenderness of the knee joint and an unstable joint characterised by forward or backward movement of the tibia on femur while walking or running. Increased laxity of the ligament means that the ligament has become loose and will not help to keep the bones (femur and tibia in case of knee joint) in place, thus leading to joint instability. Intrasubstance edema means fluid accumulation within the ligament. It happens in any injury and is helpful for healing as it is filtered from blood and contains mediators of inflammation."

Last updated Mon 18 December 2017By Stephanie Brunner Reviewed by University of Illinois-Chicago, School of Medicine Treatment Causes Symptoms Pulmonary edema or pleural effusion Pulmonary edema or pneumonia Diagnosis Prevention Pulmonary edema occurs when fluid accumulates in the air sacs of the lungs - the alveoli - making it difficult to breathe. This interferes with gas exchange and can cause respiratory failure. Pulmonary edema can be acute (sudden onset) or chronic (occurring more slowly over time). If it is acute, it is classed as a medical emergency needing immediate attention. The most common cause of pulmonary edema is congestive heart failure, where the heart cannot keep up with the demands of the body. Treatment of pulmonary edema usually focuses on improving respiratory function and dealing with the source of the problem. It generally includes providing additional oxygen and medications to treat the underlying conditions. Fast facts on pulmonary edema Pulmonary edema is a condition involving fluid buildup in the lungs. Sudden onset (acute) pulmonary edema is a medical emergency."

Indications and Usage for Actos Monotherapy and Combination Therapy Actos is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus in multiple clinical settings [see Clinical Studies (14)]. Important Limitations of Use Actos exerts its antihyperglycemic effect only in the presence of endogenous insulin. Actos should not be used to treat type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis, as it would not be effective in these settings. Use caution in patients with liver disease [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].

The recommended starting dose for patients without congestive heart failure is 15 mg or 30 mg once daily. The recommended starting dose for patients with congestive heart failure (NYHA Class I or II) is 15 mg once daily. The dose can be titrated in increments of 15 mg up to a maximum of 45 mg once daily based on glycemic response as determined by Hb A1c. After initiation of Actos or with dose increase, monitor patients carefully for adverse reactions related to fluid retention such as weight gain, edema, and signs and symptoms of congestive heart failure [see Boxed Warning and Warnings and Precautions (5.5)]. Liver tests (serum alanine and aspartate aminotransferases, alkaline phosphatase, and total bilirubin) should be obtained prior to initiating Actos. Routine periodic monitoring of liver tests during treatment with Actos is not recommended in patients without liver disease. Patients who have liver test abnormalities prior to initiation of Actos or who are found to have abnormal liver tests while taking Actos should be managed as described under Warnings and Precautions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Concomitant Use with an Insulin Secretagogue or Insulin If hypoglycemia occurs in a patient co-administered Actos and an insulin secretagogue (e.g., sulfonylurea), the dose of the insulin secretagogue should be reduced."

"text": "Bone Marrow Edema on MRI– what does it mean?? Question How can a doctor tell if the MRI findings are bone marrow edema and not cancer? Answer April 7, 2009 By Clifton Bingham, III, MDIncreasingly MRIs are used to evaluate joints of patients with arthritis. The MRI is a very sensitive technique that allows better visualization of the bones, cartilage, and joint tissue. An MRI picture is in black and white like an XRay but can provide cross sectional pictures from several different perspectives. “ Bone marrow edema” can be seen in a number of different conditions. While the term “edema” implies fluid in the area, there are actually many different conditions that can cause this MRI finding. This can be seen in osteoarthritis in bone under areas where cartilage is damaged; in rheumatoid arthritis edema may precede an erosion developing; in ankylosing spondylitis edema may precede the development of tendon insertional calcification. In other circumstances, similar findings may be seen in microfractures of the bone, and many other conditions. The meaning of the “bone marrow edema” is thus based on the particular clinical context."

We all know that drinking adequate fluids is extremely important to our health. Our bodies are made up of large amounts of water. The blood has large amounts of water, and every cell in the body requires water to live. In the terminally ill, the amount of food taken in often decreases as patient's appetite's decline and their ability to process the food through digestion also decreases. Later on, many patients will also begin to drink less and less. Differences in patient's experiences will depend upon the type of illness they have. For many families, giving food to a family member is an active expression of their love: \"\"food is love.\"\" In certain cultures and religions, food holds an even higher place of reverence and refusing food or drink is contrary to all their beliefs. However, in the case of the terminally ill, providing food or liquids late in the dying process may actually harm the patient by causing fluid imbalances."

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."

Almost any wooded property will have wild leeks, and spotting them is easy: Just look for the first green foliage on the forest floor after the snow melts until late May or early June. Both the greens and bulbs are edible. [ Our favorite leek recipes! ] Leeks grow in clusters that originate from a single growing point under the ground. But don’t be greedy and dig up the whole cluster with a shovel. Pick two or three leeks farthest out on the cluster, reaching in with a finger to snap the individual leeks off horizontally rather than yanking them out of the ground. This method leaves the growing point intact to produce again next year. [ Wild Leek Dos and Dont’s]*Know that leek foraging isn’t permitted in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and another note of caution: Do not search for leeks on open dunes and open meadows, because there is a poisonous plant called the Death Camas that resembles leeks and grows in those environments. A key thing to know: leeks smell like onions; death camas do not.5 Easy, Sustainable Foraging Rules for Wild Leeks Wait until the plant is mature."

In Europe’s Middle Ages, people believed that carrying “fern seed” would make you to disappear from sight. Shakespeare even referenced these magical powers in Henry IV ! While we can't vouch for super powers, we can affirm that ferns are to thank for a fleeting spring treat. The term fiddlehead fern is generally used to reference ostrich fern fiddleheads, but fiddlehead actually refers to a stage of growth -- and the name fittingly comes from its resemblance to the scroll at the top of a fiddle.

As a bonus, ramps, nettles, fuki and fiddleheads represent the little-known family of perennial vegetables. Just one planting session of these shade-tolerant vegetables can yield years of harvesting. Cool-Season Crops Vegetables classified as “cool season”—those typically sown for spring or fall crops--also do well in the height of summer when given shade. These include many of the leafy greens: spinach, arugula, kale, chard, mustard greens and sorrel. Grow them under taller crops or in shady window boxes. Lettuce Fast-growing, low-lying lettuce is the perfect veggie to tuck into shady spots in garden beds or patio planters. The greens will thrive under corn and staked plants like tomatoes and cucumbers. Feed lettuce with plenty of nitrogen-rich fertilizer to encourage lush leaf growth."

You can definitely make a living selling cupcakes even as a home based business, but before you run out and make purchases and investments you may come to regret let’s take a look at the time and money commitment you’ll have to make in order to have a self-sustaining, possibly home based, cupcake business. Even if you decide that this business isn’t for you by the end of this post you’ll have a greater appreciation for cupcakers and their baking brethren. Remember this post is only an example and more of a thought exercise.

Flower cookery has been traced back to Roman times, and to the Chinese, Middle Eastern, and Indian cultures. Edible flowers were especially popular in the Victorian era during Queen Victoria’s reign. Today, many restaurant chefs and innovative home cooks garnish their entrees with flower blossoms for a touch of elegance. The secret to success when using edible flowers is to keep the dish simple, do not add to many other flavors that will over power the delicate taste of the flower. Today this nearly lost art is enjoying a revival. Please use this Edible Flowers Chart before eating any flowers. Photo of edible flowers picked in Linda’s garden in July (lavender, thyme, dill, cilantro, day lily, squash blossom, Nasturtiums, chives, and basil). One very important thing that you need to remember is that not every flower is edible. In fact, sampling some flowers can make you very, very sick."

"text": "5 Easy-To-Identify Edible Mushrooms For The Beginning Mushroom Hunter In the world of foraging, few organisms conjure up more fear and mystery than mushrooms. Tell someone you harvest wild berries, and he thinks to himself what a great hobby. Tell another person you hunt wild mushrooms, and she fears for your life. “Aren’t you scared?”“What if it’s poisonous?”“I could never pick wild mushrooms, they’re much too dangerous. ”The fungal kingdom, it seems, is a bit of an enigma. In 1991, a paper was published suggesting that, although 1.5 million fungi were thought to have inhabited the earth, only about 70,000, or 4.7%, of fungal organisms were identified at that time ( 1 ). Today, it is estimated that there are 5.1 million fungal species in existence, and the number of identified species is still quite small in comparison. It’s true, out of 5.1 million fungal species, some of them are quite toxic. Destroying Angel, Deadly Galerina, and Death Cap aren’t just fancy names, though they may or may not be hit singles from late 80’s heavy metal bands…Amatoxin, forever popularized by their hit single, “Destroying Angel”It’s easy to focus all our attention on the dangers of wild mushroom hunting, and of course the risks are valid concerns. One must absolutely know what he or she has in hand before even thinking about pulling out the butter, salt, and frying pan."

Today we’ll look at 10 wild plants you can eat. Learn them, find them, try them now. The more you practice your foraging skills now, the better off you’ll be should disaster ever strike. Image Credit1- Blackberries Image Credit When I was a kid, a bunch of my friends and I had a fort out in the woods. Luckily for us, we were surrounded by a bunch of wild blackberries. Wild blackberries are 100% safe to eat and easy to recognize. They have red branches with long thorns, jagged green leaves, and white flowers with 5 petals.

NJ 75 was supposed to connect I-78 to the east with the Garden State Parkway to the north (via I-280 ). Between the two roads, there was no need for corresponding ramps at the actual I-78/Parkway interchange, but neither one was built (though there are stubs of each along I-78). It was clear from 1980 at the latest that neither connection would be built, so, of course, the NJ Highway Authority sat on the existing interchange for 50 years without improving it at all. At least it has been possible, because the ramps merged briefly with each other, to go from west to south and from east to north - I'm sure that if all the connections were in place, that connection would have disappeared. Well, cue the NJ Turnpike Authority taking over the Highway Authority, and suddenly fixing the interchange that had become part of North Jersey lore was a top priority. Seven years after the takeover (2010), both new ramps opened and finally completed one of the more notorious breaks in the Interstate system. ( Until this worked out, NB-WB traffic would head east on I-78 and U-turn in the middle of Hillside on local streets and ramps definitely not intended for through traffic. SB-EB traffic was just completely out of luck.)

When I scrunched my face over the thought of eating dandelions, she shot me a serious look. “ No, you don’t understand. They were good. People have to eat. Eating dandelions was filling, and just because they’re called weeds doesn’t mean they weren’t tasty. ”Many years later this came back to me when I went in search of a book on edible and medicinal wild plants. Because an edible plant book could save your life it’s worth considering including on in your 72 hour survival kit, car survival kit, bug out bag, GOOD bag, or INCH bag. For a detailed explanation of the difference between these emergency kits, read David’s article www.secretsofurbansurvival.com/438/disaster-kits/. I found two books; one on North American edible wild plants and the other more specific to my region. Both have taught me a lot over the years and have given me peace of mind."

"text": "Previous Easter coloring contest winners Next Up‘An Easter miracle’Easter Sunday will take on a whole new meaning this year for…Spring is the season for Michigan mushrooms Early spring moving harvest up two to four weeks this year Apr 6, 2012 0 Michigan’s morel season is one of this state’s most popular rites of spring, attracting rookie and experienced “shroom” hunters to all parts of the state. While late April and early May are usually the prime hunting weeks for morels, this year’s warm early spring has brought the edible mushrooms out a good two to four weeks ahead of schedule. A morel is an edible wild mushroom, and Michigan is home to 3,000 species of mushrooms. There are three basic types of morels, commonly known as “blacks” — the earliest spring variety, “yellows” or “whites” and the less common “half-free” variety, with caps attached “half-free’ from the stem, according to Phil Tedeschi, of Dexter, director of the Michigan Mushroom Hunters Club. Black morels in northern Michigan usually start slowly during the last two weeks of April, but there have already been successful sightings this early in the month up in the Lewiston area. Usually, Mother’s Day weekend is the best time for yellow morels, and this year it might be a little earlier, depending on the weather. The most popular hunting ground for morels is up north, because most morels thrive in wooded areas, including habitats of dead or dying elms, old apple orchards, old ash, poplar trees and even pines. Learn about different types of trees to find out where to find morels or other edible mushrooms. Most hunters aren’t willing to share their secret spots, but a novice should try to accompany an experienced hunter, to know what to look for. Before heading out, dress appropriately with long pants, comfortable hiking boots or shoes, wear DEET-free bug spray and carry a small pocket knife or swiss army knife."

We are witnessing a breakdown of respect for authority in American culture, as well as a tremendous increase in personal opinion and feelings as the standard of authority. Consequently, we now have a veritable smorgasbord of doctrinal variety in religion. Such is the nature of pluralism. One is likely to see anything and everything perpetrated in the name of religion and/or Christianity. The only solution to such a situation is to reaffirm the inspiration and authority of the Bible. The Bible is the only written document on this planet that is the standard of authority in life and in religion (see Miller, 1996, pp. 430-446,462-471).

Because the church in the world has been ignorant and, for the most part, void of the offices of the five-fold ministries, it has failed to teach about the office of a prophet. I suppose the main reason is that there have been few prophets down through history. On the other hand there have been, and are, more than most people think. It is important for the people of the world and the church to recognize such an office established by God Himself. The reason being,Matthew 10:41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward.... Jesus made that statement speaking of the future but equally important is what the Old Testament (our schoolmaster) says about God. Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. Jesus warned of false prophets. This is one of the reasons it is important for us to recognize a true prophet, so we can then recognize a false prophet."

We saw David speaking of being thankful to God before even the heathen of the day. We found Paul thanking God for all things as a testimony to the Gentiles.

Does the Bible Tell Christians to Judge Not?by Ken Ham, Jeremy Ham, and David Chakranarayan on April 26, 2013Share: Many people conclude that making judgments on anyone (especially coming from Christians) is wrong because the Bible says ”judge not” ( Matthew 7:1 ). Shop Now We live in a world that increasingly strives to (supposedly) promote the idea of tolerance, but actually becomes intolerant of Christian absolutes as it does so. Whether it involves religion, behavior, or human sexuality, there is a growing anti-Christian sentiment in America and other Western nations. Ultimately, built into this “tolerance” is the concept that truth is determined by each individual, not by God. This has led many people to conclude that making judgments on anyone (especially coming from Christians) is wrong because the Bible says ” judge not ” ( Matthew 7:1). Interestingly enough, those who reject the notion of God or the credibility of the Bible often attempt to use God’s Word (e.g., by quoting verses out of context) to excuse their actions when they are presented with the gospel and the plight of sinners for rejecting it. The Authority on Judging Scripture makes it very clear that there is one supreme Judge of all—the Lord God—and that He alone has the authority to determine right and wrong motives and behaviors. Many Old Testament passages attest to the truth of God as Judge: God is a just judge, and God is angry with the wicked every day. ( Psalm 7:11)He shall judge the world in righteousness, and he shall administer judgments for the people in uprightness. ("

Now there is a scriptural answer to these questions which is important. To understand that answer the subject must be treated in a certain context.

This is a very specific call of God on the life of Jeremiah. When we are talking about “signs of prophetic calling” we can look at it from two different angles. There is the call to the office of the “prophet” and there is a general call to be “prophetic”. There is a difference.2. Different Prophets One who is called to the office of a prophet can be called in different ways. It does not seem to have to be dramatic, but there are obviously cases where it is. I think it also helps to understand that there are different kinds of prophets. Ezekiel is one type, Jeremiah is another, while Isaiah is also different."

"text": "“Through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs together with Israel, members together of one body, and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus” ( Ephesians 3:6, NIV ). Paul’s letter to the Ephesians is about God’s marvelous plan to bring peace, unity and salvation to all peoples—Jews and gentiles alike. To achieve that goal, God has “made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment—to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ” ( Ephesians 1:9-10, NIV ). His message to those in Colosse contains similar language: “For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross” ( Colossians 1:19-20 ). Therefore, Paul appeals to Christians, “As shoes for your feet put on whatever will make you ready to proclaim the gospel of peace” ( Ephesians 6:15, NRSV ). To achieve that goal, both one’s thinking and way of life must be rooted firmly in the teachings of God’s Word. Paul speaks plainly to the non-Jewish Christians whose former conduct had not been based on the Word of God. “ So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking” ( Ephesians 4:17, NIV ). They must cease living according to the “course of this world,” which is controlled by the “wiles of the devil” ( Ephesians 2:2; Ephesians 6:11 ). Instead, they must recognize that they “are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works” ( Ephesians 2:10, NIV )."

While most of the questions focused on personal aspects of Hybels life, such as favorite book and Bible verse, one dealt with abortion, and two touched on the LGBT community. “For the last three weeks we have proclaimed hope for the global poor. Will our church ever be able to proclaim hope for the LGBT community?” inquired one Willow Creek congregant. In his off-the-cuff remarks, Hybels emotionally recalled a memory from the fourth grade. Several kids he knew beat up a little boy they dubbed, “queer” based on his physical stature. After that day, the boy never returned to school. For Hybels this was a “defining moment” that shaped his approach to the LGBT in ministry. “I’ve probably had over the forty years two hundred people from this church, many of you right in this room, come out to me because I’m your pastor."

The Solicitor General is of course an Executive Branch officer, reporting to the Attorney General, and ultimately to the President, in whom our Constitution vests all of the Executive power of the United States.

For other uses, see Federal Convention (disambiguation). Scene at the Signing of the Constitution of the United States The Constitutional Convention [1]: 31 (also known as the Philadelphia Convention, [1]: 31 the Federal Convention, [1]: 31 or the Grand Convention at Philadelphia [2] [3]) took place from May 25 to September 17, 1787, in the old Pennsylvania State House (later known as Independence Hall because of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence there eleven years before) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Although the Convention was intended to revise the league of states and first system of government under the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union, (which were first proposed in 1776, adopted by the Second Continental Congress in 1778 and only finally unanimously ratified by the Original Thirteen States by 1781), the intention from the outset of many of its proponents, chief among them James Madison of Virginia and Alexander Hamilton of New York, was to create a new government rather than fix the existing one. The delegates elected George Washington of Virginia, former commanding general of the Continental Army in the late American Revolutionary War (1775-1783), to preside over the Convention. The result of the Convention was the creation of the Constitution of the United States, placing the Convention among the most significant events in the history of the United States and indeed of worldwide historical, political and social influence. The most contentious disputes revolved around composition and election of the upper legislative house in the future bicameral Congress, to be known as the Senate, how \"\"proportional representation\"\" was to be defined (whether to include slaves or other property), whether to divide the executive power between three persons or invest the power into a single chief executive to be called the President, how to elect the President, how long his term was to be and whether he could run for reelection, what offenses should be impeachable, the nature of a fugitive slave clause, whether to allow the abolition of the slave trade, and whether judges should be chosen by the legislature or executive. Most of the time during the Convention was spent on deciding these issues, while the powers of legislature, executive, and judiciary were not heavily disputed."

Tweetfont size Print Email One would be forgiven for believing that once the delegates at the Constitutional Convention of 1787 agreed on a provision, that provision became part of the proposed Constitution. Reading the history of that august meeting, however, reveals that such was rarely the case. A particularly eventful re-writing of already-agreed-upon articles was accomplished by the so-called Committee of Detail. This committee was established on June 24, 1787, and consisted of John Rutledge of South Carolina, Edmund Randolph of Virginia, Nathaniel Gorham of Massachusetts, Oliver Ellsworth of Connecticut, and James Wilson of Pennsylvania. The membership represented a good cross-section of delegates from southern, northern, and middle states. On June 24, the convention assigned the committee to draft a “Constitution comfortable to the resolutions passed by the convention.” The group was also to consider the plans for government submitted earlier by Charles Pinckney and William Patterson. After collaborating on a “constitution” conforming to the instructions given back in June, on Monday, August 6, the committee presented its final product to the convention. The report was a “printed pamphlet of seven folio pages” with wide margins allowing for annotations by the delegates. In a curious coincidence that has been nearly completely ignored by historians, Oliver Ellsworth and Edmund Randolph served on a similar committee in 1781."

In 1777 during the Revolution he led the American Army in the Battle of Germantown. In 1793 to escape the Yellow Fever Epidemic, the capitol was moved from Philadelphia to Germantown. In the house of Germantown resident Colonel Franks, Washington lived and met with his cabinet, including Thomas Jefferson, Edmund Randolph, and Alexander Hamilton. Washington played an important role and his contributions are crucial to understanding Germantown's place in American history.

It describes 2 houses: one with members elected by the people for 3-year terms and the other composed of older leaders elected by the state legislatures for 7-year terms.

He was the fourth of Thomas and Hannah Lee's eight surviving children. He spent most of his childhood in the Northern Neck of Virginia at Stratford Hall, the great house of the Lees, which was completed in 1740 and is now primarily recognized as the birthplace of Confederate general Robert E. Lee. Little is known of Richard Lee's childhood at Stratford; he received a rudimentary education at Stratford Hall through a family tutor, Alexander White, and learned a variety of skills, such as riding horseback and handling the small boats that traveled along the rivers and creeks of the Northern Neck. Once the teenaged Lee had mastered these skills, his father allowed him to deliver messages to neighboring planters so that he could connect with these prominent men on his own merit. See Panoramas Virtual Tour of Stratford Hall In 1748, at age sixteen, Lee left Virginia for Yorkshire, England, to complete his formal education at Wakefield Academy. Lee's mother died on January 25, 1750; his father, then acting governor of Virginia, died that same year, on November 14. After the news of his parents' deaths reached Lee and his brothers in 1751, Lee's eldest brother, Philip Lee, who was also in England at the time, asked Richard Henry Lee to accompany him back to Virginia. When Lee refused, ostensibly to continue the courtship of a young woman to whom he was betrothed, his brother abruptly broke off the engagement. Perhaps in defiance, Lee spent at least a year touring mainland Europe before returning to Virginia in 1753."

Though there may be many examples from which to chose, we believe that the 2nd Virginia Convention of 1775, highlighting Patrick Henry's speech, is a glowing example of men who had the courage to do what is right in the face of overwhelming obstacles. In the face of these obstacles many men will abandon their post and take courses that are compromising, comfortable, conforming to the world, and down right cowardly. Patrick Henry's speech exposes the compromise of the opposing arguments and stirs our hearts by his example of unwavering commitment to righteousness and the truth. The more we have examined the principles of law and government expressed in Henry's speech the more we have been able to see the compromises in our own day. Though the Word of God is our starting point, understanding all that is expressed in the 2nd Virginia debate will put us on a good path as we face the challenges of our own day. The Delegates of the 2nd Virginia Convention of 1775Over 120 men assembled in March of 1775 for the Second Virginia Convention - an influential gathering that would primarily be remembered for Patrick Henry's immortal words \"\"I know not what course others may take, but as for me: Give me liberty or give me death!\"\" His compatriots cheered. His opponents argued. But who were they?"

"text": "\"Drafted by James Madison, and presented by Edmund Randolph to the Constitutional Convention on May 29, 1787, the Virginia Plan proposed a strong central government composed of three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. On May 29, 1787, Virginia delegate Edmund Randolph proposed what became known as \"\"The Virginia Plan.\"\" Written primarily by fellow Virginian James Madison, the plan traced the broad outlines of what would become the U. S. Constitution: a national government consisting of three branches with checks and balances to prevent the abuse of power. In its amended form, this page of Madison's plan shows his ideas for a legislature. It describes 2 houses: one with members elected by the people for 3-year terms and the other composed of older leaders elected by the state legislatures for 7-year terms. Both would use population as a basis for dividing seats among the states. The Virginia Plan went through several revisions before it was finalized. These \"\"Variant Texts\"\" of the Virgina Plan are available at Yale Law School's Avalon Project. \""

After ending his studies, he was back in Williamsburg by 1763, this time to study law. No formal law schools existed at the time; instead, students spent years serving as apprentices or clerks to established attorneys. Jefferson studied under George Wythe, with whom he had formed a close bond while in college. An eminent lawyer with liberal views on religion, slavery, and republicanism, Wythe saw little benefit in the drudgery of traditional legal training and preferred to have his students read law reports and foundational English legal writings, such as those by Sir Edward Coke. ( Jefferson later came to strongly dislike the commentaries of Sir William Blackstone, insisting that American law was being degraded by the increasing use of that work, at the expense of Coke, in the training of lawyers.) Wythe paired this academic foundation with the practical training necessary to understand how Virginia landowners managed their own affairs and those of the colony. He accomplished the latter by sending his students to observe cases being argued before the General Court and by supervising moot-court exercises. These two aspects of Jefferson's legal training—the study of law as political philosophy and as practical grounding for the management of plantation property —served Jefferson's gentry clients well, but they also shaped Jefferson's intellectual and political roles in nation-building. In the decades to come, the law played a critical role in Jefferson's project to create, as he wrote in his Autobiography (1821), a \"\"system by which every fibre would be eradicated of antient or future aristocracy; and a foundation laid for a government truly republican. \"\""

Echoing, Madison’s Vices of April 1787, he itemized five reasons why the Articles of Confederation must be radically altered. “It does not provide against foreign attacks. ”“It does not secure Harmony to the States. ”“It is incapable of producing certain blessings to the States. ”“It cannot defend itself against encroachments. ”“It is not superior to State constitutions. ”The single most important reason why the delegates were gathered was because of what Madison referred to as the multiplicity, mutability, and injustice of legislation at the state level. To correct these deficiencies, the Virginia Plan removed the state legislatures both structurally, and in terms of powers, from any place in the new continental arrangement. Most importantly,The National Legislature should consist of two branches."

"text": "Great Compromises of the United States Constitutionwritten by: Trent Lorcher • edited by: SForsyth • updated: 1/17/2012The Constitution of the United States is the oldest and shortest constitution in the world. In order to establish a government that would gain the acceptance of at least nine states, the document's framers needed to be willing to compromise. The Great Compromise of the United States Constitution The Problem: The first major hurdle delegates to the Constitutional Convention had to clear was the question of representation. The New Jersey Plan: The New Jersey Plan, proposed by William Paterson, favored smaller states and called for a unicameral legislature with an equal number of representatives per state. The Virginia Plan: The Virginia Plan, proposed by Edmund Randolph, favored larger states and proposed a bicameral legislature with representation based on population or money contributed. The Solution: Small states feared that if the Virginia Plan passed they would have no power. Large states felt that representation in a republic should provide equal representation for all people. The debate raged and threatened to derail the convention. Finally, Roger Sherman of Connecticut proposed a compromise, creating a bicameral legislature with one house basing representation on population and the other house providing equal representation by states. The 3/5 Compromise Contention arose once again over representation, this time involving slaves."

Follow 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Connecticut Compromise also know as The Great Compromise as follows: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Compr... The Connecticut Compromise, also known as the Great Compromise, was an essential agreement between large and small states reached during the Philadelphia Convention of 1787 that in part defined the legislative structure and representation that each state would have under the United States Constitution. It proposed a bicameral legislature, resulting in the current United States Senate and House of Representatives. Context On May 29, 1787, Edmund Randolph of the Virginia delegation proposed the creation of a legislature consisting of a lower and upper house. Membership in the lower house was to be allocated in proportion to state population, and candidates were to be nominated and elected by the people of each state. This proposal is known as the Virginia Plan. Membership in the upper house was to be allocated in the same way, but candidates were to be nominated by the state legislatures and elected by the members of the lower house. Less populous states like Delaware were afraid that such an arrangement would result in their voices and interests being drowned out by the larger states. In response, on June 15, 1787, William Patterson of the New Jersey delegation proposed the creation of a legislature consisting of a single house. Each state was to be allotted one representative in this body, regardless of population."

In American political discourse, states' rights are political powers held for the state governments rather than the federal government according to the United States Constitution, reflecting especially the enumerated powers of Congress and the Tenth Amendment. The enumerated powers that are listed in the Constitution include exclusive federal powers, as well as concurrent powers that are shared with the states, and all of those powers are contrasted with the reserved powers —also called states' rights—that only the states possess.

S. Constitution was first addressed in the case of Mc Culloch v. Maryland (1819). The Court's decision by Chief Justice John Marshall asserted that the laws adopted by the federal government, when exercising its constitutional powers, are generally paramount over any conflicting laws adopted by state governments. After Mc Culloch, the primary legal issues in this area concerned the scope of Congress' constitutional powers, and whether the states possess certain powers to the exclusion of the federal government, even if the Constitution does not explicitly limit them to the states. [ 3] [4]Text [ edit]The Supremacy Clause of the U. S. Constitution states:“ This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the constitution or laws of any state to the contrary notwithstanding. ( Emphasis added.) ” In The Federalist Papers, ratification proponent Alexander Hamilton explained the limitations this clause placed on the proposed federal government, describing that acts of the federal government were binding on the states and the people therein only if the act was in pursuance of constitutionally granted powers, and juxtaposing acts which exceeded those bounds as \"\"void and of no force\"\":“ But it will not follow from this doctrine that acts of the large society which are not pursuant to its constitutional powers, but which are invasions of the residuary authorities of the smaller societies, will become the supreme law of the land. These will be merely acts of usurpation, and will deserve to be treated as such. ”"

Early Sunday, the Last Quarter Moon is exact, when the Sun in Aries forms a square with the Moon in Capricorn. The Last Quarter Moon phase points to some sort of crisis of consciousness. After basking in the awareness symbolized by the full light of the Moon at the time of last week’s Full Moon, we disperse our knowledge and come to a point when we need to sort out what works for us–and what doesn’t–in preparation for next week’s New Moon, when something new is born once again. This is not the best time to start a major project, as the decreasing light of the Moon symbolizes a descent into unconsciousness. It’s time to begin finishing up the details of that which was conceived at the last New Moon. What revelations did you have last week? What did they mean to you? What can be done now?"

Depending on the scent you want, you'll need to put different mixtures of chemicals into the pot. Perfume design is traditionally not a very scientific process. Basically, people come up with an idea for a smell, and then they mix chemicals together which, from their own experience, might produce that smell. When they come up with a winning mixture that doesn't produce brain damage in rats (or other negative side effects in lab animals), they market it and sell for eighty bucks an ounce. Perfumes basically are three-part mixtures of chemicals. The first part, the fragrance, is the one that we usually think about. These are generally esters, aldehydes, or aromatic organic compounds that occur naturally in flowers, fruits, or other things that smell nice. The second part, the solvent, is used to dissolve all the fragrance, and evaporate slowly so that the perfume's scent is given off over a period of time, and not all at once."

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Geography Whats the difference between eastern time and pacific time in stockton california?if its 7pm eastern time what time is it in stockton california? please reply1 following 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Eastern Time Zone. The Eastern Time Zone (ET or NAEST: North American Eastern Standard Time) of the Western Hemisphere falls mostly along the east coast of North America and the west coast of South America. Its time offset is −5 hrs GMT or UTC−5 during standard time and UTC−4 during daylight saving time. The clock time in this zone is based on the mean solar time of the 75th meridian west of the Greenwich Observatory. In the United States and Canada, this time zone is generally called Eastern Time (ET). Specifically, it is Eastern Standard Time (EST) when observing standard time (winter), and Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) when observing daylight saving time (summer). The 1966 Uniform Time Act in the USA meant that EDT was instituted on the last Sunday in April, starting in 1966, throughout most of the USA. EST would be re-instituted on the last Sunday in October. The act was amended to make the first Sunday in April the beginning of EDT as of 1987."

On a summer backpacking trip (20-25 pounds in the pack, 10-15 miles, 2000 ft or so elevation gain cumulative in the Sierra/Rockies/other mountains), I find I burn about 3000-4000 calories per day (measured with an HRM that outputs calorie usage and correlates well with comparing weight gain/loss for a week-2 week trek). For something like my expeditions (like Antarctica in my avatar at the left, or the Kilimanjaro or Denali expeditions in some trip reports here on Trailspace), it goes to 6000 calories per day (and yes, that is kilocalories, the standard measure for food energy content) - less than that and I tend to lose weight. Again, though, you have to measure the requirement yourself."

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Geography Whats the difference between eastern time and pacific time in stockton california?if its 7pm eastern time what time is it in stockton california? please reply1 following 4 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: Eastern Time Zone. The Eastern Time Zone (ET or NAEST: North American Eastern Standard Time) of the Western Hemisphere falls mostly along the east coast of North America and the west coast of South America. Its time offset is −5 hrs GMT or UTC−5 during standard time and UTC−4 during daylight saving time. The clock time in this zone is based on the mean solar time of the 75th meridian west of the Greenwich Observatory. In the United States and Canada, this time zone is generally called Eastern Time (ET). Specifically, it is Eastern Standard Time (EST) when observing standard time (winter), and Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) when observing daylight saving time (summer). The 1966 Uniform Time Act in the USA meant that EDT was instituted on the last Sunday in April, starting in 1966, throughout most of the USA. EST would be re-instituted on the last Sunday in October. The act was amended to make the first Sunday in April the beginning of EDT as of 1987."

Electroencephalography Definition Electroencephalography, or EEG, is a neurological test that uses an electronic monitoring device to measure and record electrical activity in the brain. Purpose The EEG is a key tool in the diagnosis and management of epilepsy and other seizure disorders. It is also used to assist in the diagnosis of brain damage and disease (e.g., stroke, tumors,encephalitis), mental retardation, sleep disorders, degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer'sdisease and Parkinson's disease, and certain mental disorders (e.g., alcoholism, schizophrenia, autism). An EEG may also be used to monitor brain activity during surgery and to determine brain death. Precautions Electroencephalography should be administered and interpreted by a trained medicalprofessional only. Data from an EEG is only one element of a complete medical and/orpsychological patient assessment, and should never be used alone as the sole basis for a diagnosis. Description Before the EEG begins, a nurse or technician attaches approximately 16-20 electrodes to thepatient's scalp with a conductive, washable paste. Depending on the purpose for the EEG,implantable or invasive electrodes are occasionally used."

"text": "Drugs & Diseases > Neurology Focal EEG Waveform Abnormalities Updated: Nov 10, 2017Author: Alexis D Boro, MD; Chief Editor: Selim R Benbadis, MD more... Share Email Print Feedback Overview The role of EEG, and in particular the focus on focal abnormalities, has evolved over time. In the past, the identification of focal EEG abnormalities often played a key role in the diagnosis of superficial cerebral mass lesions. For example, if the EEG of a comatose patient revealed decreased amplitude over 1 cerebral hemisphere, subdural hematoma was strongly suspected. Today, with the availability and routine use of detailed imaging techniques such as CT and MRI, the EEG no longer plays this role, although it still has a central place in the diagnosis and management of patients with seizures, epilepsy, and altered mental status. [ 1] While the indications for EEG have evolved, the EEGs recorded today still exhibit the same variety of focal abnormalities as in the past and a framework for analyzing these abnormalities is still necessary to interpret and articulate the clinical implications of a recording. Focal EEG abnormalities may be categorized as epileptiform or nonepileptiform. Epileptiform transients such as spikes and sharp waves are the interictal marker of a patient with epilepsy and are the EEG signature of a seizure focus. [ 2] Nonepileptiform abnormalities are characterized by alterations in normal rhythms or by the appearance of abnormal ones. While these 2 types of nonepileptiform abnormalities often coexist, especially when clinically significant, distinguishing them is conceptually useful and aids in their recognition and description. Nonepileptiform EEG abnormalities are associated with focal cerebral dysfunction, often due to a demonstrable structural lesion."

Privitera, MDAuthor and Disclosure Information If a patient with psychiatric illness has seizure-like episodes, an abnormal EEG may help confirm the diagnosis. This neurologist offers five case studies as a quick primer for making the most of EEGs. Behaviors during seizures can mimic psychiatric disorders, and patients with epilepsy have higher-than-normal rates of many types of psychiatric illness. That’s why it is important for psychiatrists to be familiar with epilepsy and electroencephalography (EEG)—the key diagnostic tool for epileptic disorders. As a neurologist who specializes in epilepsy treatment, I offer five case studies that highlight basic concepts about epilepsy and EEGs. My goal is to help psychiatrists answer common clinical questions such as: If a patient with bipolar illness has an abnormal EEG, should this guide the treatment choice? In a patient with episodes of fear, tachycardia, and other autonomic symptoms, how does one differentiate between panic attacks, complex partial seizures, and psychogenic nonepileptic seizures? When is EEG indicated in a patient with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)? Can complex partial status epilepticus present as a psychiatric disorder?"

The magnetoencephalography (MEG) equivalent of ERP is the ERF, or event-related field. [ 2]Contents [ show]History Edit With the discovery of the electroencephalogram (EEG) in 1929, Hans Berger revealed that one could measure the electrical activity of the human brain by placing electrodes on the scalp and intensifying the signal. Changes in voltage can then be plotted over a period of time. He observed that the voltages could be influenced by external events that stimulated the senses. The EEG proved to be a useful source in recording brain activity over the ensuing decades. However, it tended to be very difficult to assess the highly specific neural process that are the focus of cognitive neuroscience because using pure EEG data made it difficult to isolate individual neurocognitive processes."

Most commonly it is used to show the type and location of the activity in the brain during a seizure. It also is used to evaluate people who are having problems associated with brain function. These problems might include confusion, coma, tumors, long-term difficulties with thinking or memory, or weakening of specific parts of the body (such as weakness associated with a stroke ). An EEG is also used to determine brain death. It may be used to prove that someone on life-support equipment has no chance of recovery.

Abstract Purpose Standard polysomnography (PSG) typically utilizes 4–6 channels of electroencephalography (EEG), which is inadequate to evaluate focal epileptiform activity. Though technical capability has long existed for more extensive EEG recording, few sleep laboratories have utilized this technique. The objective of this study was to determine the utility of combining PSG with 18-channel EEG in select patients with paroxysmal nocturnal events or other symptoms concerning for sleep disorders, nocturnal seizures or both. Methods Consecutive combined PSG–EEG studies ( n = 237) were performed between 10/1/2005 and 8/1/2009. Demographics, referral source, indications, and results were reviewed and analyzed. Results Of the 237 consecutive combined PSG–EEG studies performed, 93% revealed the presence of a primary sleep disorder, 38% were shown to have abnormal EEGs, and 37% had both. Among the 221 subjects (93%) shown to have sleep disorders, the majority of these cases were obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) 89%, followed by periodic limp movements of sleep (PLMS) 22% and rapid eye movement behavior disorder (RBD) 6%. Significantly more patients with known epilepsy were diagnosed with OSA then were patients without a seizure history. Conclusions Combined PSG–EEG, utilizing 18-channel EEG, is an under-utilized technique which can assist in diagnosing paroxysmal nocturnal events, and differentiate between the presence of a primary sleep disorder, seizure activity, or both."

"text": "Treatment and recovery Acute treatment The diagnosis of an anoxic brain injury is usually quite clear at an early stage from the details of what has happened and the patient's condition on arrival at hospital. Due to the wide variety of causes of anoxia, immediate treatment will depend on the particular circumstances. In all cases, efforts will be directed at restoring a normal heartbeat, blood pressure and a good supply of oxygen to the brain. Patients who have suffered a serious anoxic episode will usually be admitted to an intensive care unit and put on a ventilator, preferably in a specialist neurosciences centre. The patient may need drugs to maintain adequate blood pressure and normal heart beat. Seizures are quite common after an anoxic brain injury and they can be prolonged and sometimes difficult to bring under control. This is a stage of critical illness and the full range of intensive care support is needed to give the best chances of survival and the best possible outcome. In some centres, patients may undergo medically induced cooling, referred to as therapeutic hypothermia. There is some evidence that this may have a protective effect on the brain and aid recovery by decreasing the oxygen and energy requirements of brain cells. It has been suggested that the protective effect of cooling the brain may be one reason why people sometimes survive after surprisingly long periods of immersion in very cold water."

Sometimes a specific traumatic event can be identified in many people with PNES. The most reliable test to make the diagnosis of PNES is video EEG monitoring. A therapeutic technique called Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing works for some people with PNES. More research is needed to find additional ways to treat PNES. Published November 1, 2007Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) are an uncomfortable topic, one that is difficult for both patients and healthcare professionals to discuss and treat. Yet it is estimated that PNES are diagnosed in 20 to 30% of patients seen at epilepsy centers for intractable seizures. 1 Moreover, in the general population the prevalence rate is 2-33 per 100,000, making PNES nearly as prevalent as multiple sclerosis or trigeminal neuralgia. 2 Despite these startling statistics, PNES has largely remained a conversation held behind closed doors and in hushed tones throughout the medical community – until now. In addition to being common, psychogenic symptoms pose an uncomfortable and often frustrating challenge, both in diagnosis and management,” said Selim R. Benbadis MD."

"text": "\"Natural Patterns of Sleep At a Glance Sleep was once considered an inactive, or passive, state in which both the body and the brain \"\"turned off\"\" to rest and recuperate from the day's waking activities. Scientists have since found that the brain goes through characteristic patterns of activity throughout each period of sleep, and that it is sometimes more active when we're asleep than when we're awake. Understanding these patterns, and the factors that affect them, may help in making choices that will lead to better quality sleep. Features on this page REM and NREM Sleep Sleep Patterns Across the Night Waking up to Sleep Our bodies require sleep in order to maintain proper function and health. In fact, we are programmed to sleep each night as a means of restoring our bodies and minds. Two interacting systems—the internal biological clock and the sleep-wake homeostat—largely determine the timing of our transitions from wakefulness to sleep and vice versa. These two factors also explain why, under normal conditions, we typically stay awake during the day and sleep at night. But what exactly happens when we drift off to sleep? Prior to the era of modern sleep research in the early 1920s, scientists regarded sleep as an inactive brain state. It was generally accepted that as night fell and sensory inputs from the environment diminished, so too did brain function."

What is a q EEG (sometimes called a “Q”)? A quantitative EEG (q EEG) is an EEG brain map. Compared to an MRI, it’s less expensive and provides much more specific information about cortical timing. The brain is incredibly fast, and even minuscule differences in timing in a brain area can have profound functional implications. In very simple terms, a q EEG is a computer analysis of the EEG data. It typically uses 19 or more channels of simultaneous EEG recording under specific recording conditions. An example of raw data of a q EEG. This EEG data is compared against a reference database of other people’s EEGs. The analysis identifies and highlights variations from the norm (average)."

It also can be used to monitor a patient during surgery. Typical costs: For patients covered by health insurance, typical out-of-pocket costs for an EEG would consist of a copay or coinsurance of 10%-50%. An EEG typically is covered by health insurance when medically necessary to diagnose or monitor a problem, or during surgery. For patients not covered by health insurance, an EEG typically costs $200-$700 or more for a standard EEG -- or up to $3,000 or more if extended monitoring is required. For example, Garden City Hospital [ 1] in Michigan charges $749 for an EEG, but offers the test for $199 through a special program for uninsured patients. St. Peter's Hospital [ 2] in Montana charges almost $500 for an awake-and-asleep EEG, about $630 for an awake-and-drowsy EEG and almost $1,300 for a 24-hour EEG. And Saint Elizabeth Regional Medical Center [ 3] in Nebraska, not including doctor fee, charges about $650 for an awake-and-drowsy EEG, about $700 for an awake-and-asleep EEG, about $1,100 for extended EEG monitoring of over an hour, and about $3,000 for EEG monitoring and video recording for 24 hours. Related articles: Brain Tumor Treatment, Sleep Center, Health Insurance What should be included: An EEG technologist will ask the patient to lie down and will use a sticky paste to attach multiple electrodes to the scalp. The provider might then ask the patient to perform various activities, such as stare at a light, relax with the eyes closed and go to sleep."

"text": "\"What are the key differences and relationship between SCTE-104 and SCTE-35? SCTE-104 messages can exist either in VANC space of baseband (SDI) video, or sent between systems through TCP/IP, and are typically used as a precursor to eventual creation of SCTE-35 messages. SCTE-35 messages exist inside an MPEG Transport Stream, and contain PCR timing data and possibly component PID data specific to that transport stream. One way to think of this is that SCTE-104 messages are requests from an operator or automation system to create splice markers in a video stream, while SCTE-35 messages are the fulfillment of these requests, including all of the data that a downstream system will need to take appropriate action during live reception of the compressed stream. The downstream system reading the SCTE-35 messages may be a server-side ad splicer, a set-top box, a video switcher, or any other equipment that can smoothly splice video from multiple sources into a single stream in the compressed domain. Based on the unique identifiers and flags in the SCTE-35 messages, the final operation may be insertion of an advertisement or other piece of interstitial video, overwriting of upstream video content with a locally generated slate, or segmentation of an in-progress recording into programs and chapters. Which EEG products can insert SCTE-104 messages in VANC? Where do the messages come from? EEG caption encoder models including HD490, HD491, HD492, HD1490, and HD1450 are capable of inserting SCTE-104 messages into SDI VANC, with purchase of an add-on license. The encoders have configurable built-in presets for a set of simple SCTE-104 \"\"Splice Request\"\" messages, which can be triggered with a GPI connection or from the encoder web configuration page."

Purpose The EEG is a key tool in the diagnosis and management of epilepsy and other seizure disorders. It is also used to assist in the diagnosis of brain damage and disease (e.g., stroke, tumors,encephalitis), mental retardation, sleep disorders, degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer'sdisease and Parkinson's disease, and certain mental disorders (e.g., alcoholism, schizophrenia, autism). An EEG may also be used to monitor brain activity during surgery and to determine brain death. Precautions Electroencephalography should be administered and interpreted by a trained medicalprofessional only. Data from an EEG is only one element of a complete medical and/orpsychological patient assessment, and should never be used alone as the sole basis for a diagnosis. Description Before the EEG begins, a nurse or technician attaches approximately 16-20 electrodes to thepatient's scalp with a conductive, washable paste. Depending on the purpose for the EEG,implantable or invasive electrodes are occasionally used. Implantable electrodes includesphenoidal electrodes, which are fine wires inserted under the zygomatic arch, or cheekbone;and depth electrodes, which are surgically-implanted into the brain."

Follow 1 answer Answers Best Answer: The Enhanced Fujita Scale, or EF Scale, is the scale for rating the strength of tornadoes in the United States estimated via the damage they cause. Implemented in place of the Fujita scale introduced in 1971, it began operational use on February 1, 2007. The scale has the same basic design as the original Fujita scale, six categories from zero to five representing increasing degrees of damage. It was revised to reflect better examinations of tornado damage surveys, so as to align wind speeds more closely with associated storm damage. Better standardizing and elucidating what was previously subjective and ambiguous, it also adds more types of structures as well as vegetation, expands degrees of damage, and better accounts for variables such as differences in construction quality. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Fu...

Where do tornadoes come from? Tornadoes come from the energy released in a thunderstorm. As powerful as they are, tornadoes account for only a tiny fraction of the energy in a thunderstorm. What makes them dangerous is that their energy is concentrated in a small area, perhaps only a hundred yards across. Not all tornadoes are the same, of course, and science does not yet completely understand how part of a thunderstorm's energy sometimes gets focused into something as small as a tornado. Where do tornadoes occur? Whenever and wherever conditions are right, tornadoes are possible. In the U. S. they are most common in the central plains of North America, east of the Rocky Mountains and west of the Appalachian Mountains. They occur mostly during the spring and summer; the tornado season comes early in the south and later in the north because spring comes later in the year as one moves northward."

Tornadoes occur most often in association with thunderstorms during the spring and summer in the mid-latitudes of both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. These whirling atmospheric vortices can generate the strongest winds known on Earth: wind speeds in the range of 500 km (300 miles) per hour have been measured in extreme events. When winds of this magnitude strike a populated area, they can cause fantastic destruction and great loss of life, mainly through injuries from flying debris and collapsing structures. Most tornadoes, however, are comparatively weak events that occur in sparsely populated areas and cause minor damage. The destructive power of tornadoes is shown in a sequence of twisters moving across rural and urban landscapes. Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc.

Scale Based on Damage In 1971, when Ted Fujita introduced the original Fujita (F) scale, it wasn't possible to measure a tornado's winds while they were happening.

"text": "The Enhanced Fujita Scale: How Tornadoes are Rated Apr 10 2015 05:15 AM EDT weather.com Practically speaking, it is nearly impossible to measure the actual wind speed inside tornadoes, as they can destroy just about any unprotected weather instruments placed in their path. While ingenious storm chasers and engineers have devised vehicles and instrument packs that can withstand a tornado, the logistics and time involved to deploy such devices before every tornado would be inconceivable. This is why a measurement system for estimating the intensity of tornadoes after their impact was devised, a system known today as the Enhanced Fujita Tornado Intensity Scale. The original Fujita scale is named after Dr. Ted Fujita, a University of Chicago severe storms research scientist who came up with the scale in 1971. Dr. Fujita's scale, which ranges from F0 to F5, is based upon the type and severity of damage the tornado produced. At that time, there were very few actual measurements of tornado wind speeds that he could relate to the damage, but he used them -- together with a lot of insight -- to devise approximate wind speed ranges for each damage category. In subsequent years, structural engineers and meteorologists have examined damage from many tornadoes. They use knowledge of the wind forces needed to damage or destroy various buildings and their components to estimate the resultant wind speeds. The engineers and scientists eventually determined that the original F-Scale wind speeds were too high for categories F3 and higher. In particular, homes are not built so strongly that 250-300 mph winds are needed to destroy them."

"text": "Thank you to everyone who took part in today’s Q&A with Meteorologist Eric Sorensen on Facebook. This morning on Good Morning Quad Cities, we asked you to think about your safe place in the event of a tornado. Today at 10:00 a.m. is the statewide tornado drill in Iowa. Now is the perfect time to think about tornado safety in advance of severe weather season. Here are some of the great questions, and their answers. If you have a question that isn’t answered here, just send me an email here. Larissa Lempke: Where’s the safest spot if no basement and only a crawl space? Eric: Larissa, make a safe spot within your crawl space. I know it’s probably not an inviting place but if you can get in there, you’ll be away from the swirling debris. Interior rooms such as bathrooms and closets can offer protection when you don’t have a basement."

"text": "\"In this May 31, 2013 file photo a tornado forms near Banner Road and Praire Circle in El Reno, Okla. The National Weather Service says the deadly tornado that struck near Oklahoma City late last week was another top-of-the-scale EF5 that packed winds reaching 295 mph. The weather service also says the twister's 2.6-mile width is the widest ever recorded. ( Alonzo Adams / Associated Press)Matt Pearce A tornado that swept through Oklahoma on Friday was the widest tornado in American history, the National Weather Service said Tuesday. The El Reno, Okla., tornado scraped out a damage path up to 2.6 miles wide and 16.2 miles long, a swath at points wider and longer than Manhattan. The storm broke the record held by a 2.5-mile-wide Hallam, Neb., twister. \"\" It was amazing and something that's extremely rare,\"\" Howard Bluestein, professor of meteorology at the University of Oklahoma, said of the storm's strength -- which now presents a puzzle for researchers whose solution could help mean the difference between life and death. The human aftermath left by Friday's twister was painfully apparent, with at least 18 people killed in the latest massive tornado to carve through Oklahoma this spring. The storm itself, however, remains much more of a mystery. Researchers don't know why the twister got as big and powerful as it did, and its strength wasn't immediately apparent as it scoured a rural area, leaving few of the physical clues that help determine wind speeds. “If you look at a wheat field, how do you know how strong the wind was?\"\""

"text": "\"What Is Venlafaxine (Effexor)?1780 Reviews | Get Coupons Venlafaxine, formerly sold as Effexor, is a prescription drug used to treat depression, anxiety, social phobia, and panic disorder. The brand name Effexor has been discontinued in the United States, though Effexor XR and generic venlafaxine are available. Venlafaxine belongs to the class of antidepressants called serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). SNRIs work by increasing the brain's levels of serotonin and norepinephrine, neurotransmitters that act together to brighten mood and relieve pain. Made by Pfizer, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Effexor in pill form in 1993 for the treatment of depression, and in extended-release capsules, called Effexor XR, in 1997. It approved Effexor for generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) in 1999, social anxiety disorder in 2003, and for panic disorder in 2005. The generic version of Effexor, venlafaxine, was approved in 2010. Venlafaxine has also been prescribed off-label to treat hot flashes brought on by menopause or therapy for breast cancer; pain tied to diabetic nerve damage; post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD); debilitating migraines and tension-type headaches; chronic fatigue syndrome; bipolar depression; and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Venlafaxine Warnings The FDA has issued a black-box warning for venlafaxine because studies found an increased risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior in children, teenagers, and young adults taking antidepressants, including Effexor. Venlafaxine can interact with other prescription or nonprescription medications in ways that hinder its effectiveness or bring on serious side effects."

Share Pin Reddit Stumble Email5.0KAs someone who has taken Effexor XR (venlafaxine HCl), I know all too well what the withdrawal symptoms of this medication are like – they can be pure hell. I was fortunate to have only taken this medication for a couple months. However, there are people out there that have been on this powerful antidepressant for years. If you come off the medication cold turkey, you may send your body and mind into a state of total shock, depression, anxiety, and disarray. In other words, you may not be able to cope with what you are experiencing because the withdrawal is that powerful. Obviously if you were taking Effexor XR, you know that it is an “extended release” SNRI medication. In other words it contributes to the re-uptake of the neurotransmitters Serotonin and Norepinephrine in the brain. This is supposed to help people with depression and anxiety function better in society and cope with their condition. This medication is considered among the toughest to withdraw from due to its potency as well as short half life of the drug."

"text": "\"SNRI (Serotonin Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitor)Natasha Tracy Print Email SNRI antidepressants help relieve the symptoms of depression and anxiety. The three main neurotransmitters (or neuromodulators) involved in depression are dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin (also known as 5-HT). While their effect on mood is not completely clear, we do know that modulating these brain chemicals produces an antidepressant effect. Initially, drugs specifically modulating serotonin ( selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, SSRIs) were developed, but now an additional class of medications that affect both serotonin and norepinephrine are common. These antidepressants are known as serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). Depression drugs included in the SNRI antidepressants class include: Desvenlafaxine (Pristiq)Duloxetine (Cymbalta)Milnacipran (Savella)Venlafaxine (Effexor, Effexor XR)SSRIs vs. SNRIs Are there differences among the SSRIs and SNRIs in achieving remission in patients with major depression? Remission of depression in the patient is the doctor's main goal. According to Dr. Jeffrey Kelsey, Medical Director, Georgia Institute of Mood and Anxiety Disorders, all of the antidepressants available in the U. S. market today, including SSRIs and SNRIs, are equally effective when it comes to response rates. Dr. Kelsey explains SSRIs vs. SNRIs in depression treatment,\"\"However, when it comes to remission, the data shows that SNRIs, dual-acting antidepressants, will, in some patients, confer an advantage. And the tricky part is going into it, we don't know which patients will benefit from one approach to the other."

"text": "Most Popular Antidepressants In 2014: Cymbalta, Pristiq, Viibryd Share Pin Reddit Stumble Email145The popularity of antidepressants has changed significantly over time. The first antidepressants called MAOIs were discovered in the 1950s and instantly became the most popular class. As newer tricyclic antidepressants emerged just a few years later, many of them were preferred over MAOIs because they carried less side effects and food interactions. The goal with developing new drugs for depression has always been to improve upon past drugs in regards to efficacy, tolerability, and side effects. In the late 1980s, the first SSRI medication Prozac hit the market (1987). It became very popular and a household name among antidepressants. By the year 1993, over 10 million people throughout the world had tried Prozac for their depression. Eventually this SSRI would become a household name in the antidepressant industry. Following Prozac, other drugs in the SSRI class emerged to the forefront as antidepressants. Eventually researchers discovered that some people may respond better to drugs that influence both serotonin and norepinephrine."

The ratios of each ingredient vary a bit. The advertising and branding vary a lot. Some people will strongly prefer Haagen Dazs over Ben & Jerry's, and some the other way around. And most will like both just fine. Whether a person strongly prefers one over the other depends on the person's impression of each recipe, and on the person's perception of the brand image. When it comes to Effexor (which inhibits the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine) versus Cymbalta (which inhibits the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine), there are more similarities than differences. The clinical study found no difference in therapeutic effect between the two drugs: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17445831 The major difference between Effexor and Cymbalta is that the former is available as a low-cost generic while the latter is still enjoying patent protection and associated pricing power.

The onset of metformin-associated lactic acidosis is often subtle, accompanied only by nonspecific symptoms such as malaise, myalgias, respiratory distress, somnolence, and abdominal pain. Metformin-associated lactic acidosis was characterized by elevated blood lactate levels (>5 mmol/Liter), anion gap acidosis (without evidence of ketonuria or ketonemia), an increased lactate/pyruvate ratio, and metformin plasma levels generally >5 mcg/m L [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS ]. Risk factors for metformin-associated lactic acidosis include renal impairment, concomitant use of certain drugs (e.g., carbonic anhydrase inhibitors such as topiramate), age 65 years old or greater, having a radiological study with contrast, surgery and other procedures, hypoxic states (e.g., acute congestive heart failure), excessive alcohol intake, and hepatic impairment. Steps to reduce the risk of and manage metformin-associated lactic acidosis in these high risk groups are provided in the full prescribing information [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION, CONTRAINDICATIONS , WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS, DRUG INTERACTIONS, and Use In Specific Populations ]. If metformin-associated lactic acidosis is suspected, immediately discontinue JANUMET XR and institute general supportive measures in a hospital setting. Prompt hemodialysis is recommended [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS ]. DESCRIPTIONJANUMET XR tablets contain two oral antidiabetic medications used in the management of type 2 diabetes: sitagliptin and metformin hydrochloride extended-release.

"text": "\"Strattera vs. Adderall: Comparison Share Pin Reddit Stumble Email14An overwhelming majority of medications used to treat ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder) are classified as psychostimulants. Although psychostimulant drugs tend to have an immediate effect in reducing symptoms of attentional deficits and hyperactive behavior, they have a high potential for abuse. Furthermore, there is something to be said for the potential that long-term psychostimulant use may alter dopamine levels and receptor densities – specifically downregulating receptor count. This has lead pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly to develop a non-stimulant drug called Strattera to treat symptoms of ADHD. This drug functions by primarily targeting norepinephrine by inhibiting its reuptake. The reuptake inhibition tends to result in increased physiological stimulation and clinical studies indicate that treatment with Strattera is significantly more effective than a placebo. Many doctors like the idea of prescribing Strattera (as opposed to a psychostimulant) due to the fact that it isn’t considered to have any potential for abuse. However, individuals considering Strattera for their ADHD often want to know how it stacks up when compared to Adderall (the most popular ADHD medication ). Strattera and Adderall are radically different drugs with different mechanisms of action. Strattera vs. Adderall Comparison Chart Below is a general comparison of Strattera to Adderall."

"text": "\"Answers.com ® Wiki Answers ® Categories Health Medication and Drugs Psychostimulants Adderall What is Adderall? Flag What is Adderall? Answer by Jeff8874 Confidence votes 484Adderall is a central nervous stimulant which affects chemicals in the brain that contribute to hyperactivity and impulse control. Adderall is most commonly used to treat ADHD, and also narcolepsy. Adderall is a brand-name for amphetamine. Amphetamine is a controlled substance in most countries and is only dispensed under the authorization of a doctor. Amphetamine works by increasing two chemicals in the brain: dopamine and norepinephrine. Both chemicals play a role in focus and attention, and by raising these levels amphetamine is able to help a person concentrate and sit still for longer periods of time. Adderall comes in two formulations: Adderall (Immediate release) and Adderall XR (Extended release). Adderall comes in doses of 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15, 20, and 30 mg."

Advertisement What Is Focalin XR? Focalin XR ® ( dexmethylphenidate extended-release) is a prescription medication that is used for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ( ADHD ). Focalin XR capsules are specially designed to release half of the medication immediately, and to release the second half of the medication after approximately four hours. As a result, the medication can be taken just once a day. Because Focalin XR is a stimulant and is commonly abused, there are special rules for prescribing it (see Focalin XR: A Controlled Substance).

INVOKANA® is not recommended in patients with type 1 diabetes or for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis. INVOKAMET® and INVOKAMET® XR are indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus when treatment with both canagliflozin and metformin is appropriate. INVOKAMET® and INVOKAMET® XR are not recommended in patients with type 1 diabetes or for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis. WARNING: LACTIC ACIDOSIS AND LOWER-LIMB AMPUTATIONLactic Acidosis Postmarketing cases of metformin-associated lactic acidosis have resulted in death, hypothermia, hypotension, and resistant bradyarrhythmias. The onset of metformin-associated lactic acidosis is often subtle, accompanied only by nonspecific symptoms such as malaise, myalgias, respiratory distress, somnolence, and abdominal pain. Metformin-associated lactic acidosis was characterized by elevated blood lactate levels (>5 mmol/L); anion gap acidosis (without evidence of ketonuria or ketonemia); an increased lactate:pyruvate ratio; and metformin plasma levels generally >5 mcg/m L. Risk factors for metformin-associated lactic acidosis include renal impairment, concomitant use of certain drugs (eg, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors such as topiramate), age 65 years old or greater, having a radiological study with contrast, surgery and other procedures, hypoxic states (eg, acute congestive heart failure), excessive alcohol intake, and hepatic impairment. Steps to reduce the risk of and manage metformin-associated lactic acidosis in these high-risk groups are provided in the full prescribing information. If metformin-associated lactic acidosis is suspected, immediately discontinue INVOKAMET®/ INVOKAMET® XR and institute general supportive measures in a hospital setting. Prompt hemodialysis is recommended."

Heartburn and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) Heartburn is extremely common with 10% of the population and 25% of pregnant women experiencing symptoms daily. Even though heartburn is common, it is rarely life threatening and often can be managed with medications and lifestyle changes. Severe cases, however, can result in or threaten injury to the lower esophagus, irritation to the lungs and throat, and other complications that may require endoscopic or surgical treatment. Watch this Webcast to learn more about how to manage heartburn. Swallowing Difficulties (Dysphagia) Patients may experience difficulty swallowing, a condition which can arise from a variety of reasons, including: Damage from GERD (esophagitis, esophageal ulcer and esophageal stricture)Esophageal cancer Achalasia - a disorder that involves loss of motility of the esophagus and failure of the lower esophageal sphincter to relax Scleroderma - an autoimmune disease affecting the esophagus Diffuse esophageal spasm - a disorder with abnormally powerful contractions of the muscles of the esophagus Eosinophilic esophagitis - an allergic response that occurs in the esophagus with an infiltration of eosinophils (special inflammatory cells)All of these conditions require prompt diagnosis and treatment. Barrett's Esophagus Barrett's esophagus can occur when long standing reflux severely irritates the lining of the esophagus so that cells undergo a change in appearance to more like those of the intestine.

This examination is performed using an endoscope-a flexible fiberoptic tube with a tiny TV camera at the end. The camera is connected to either an eyepiece for direct viewing or a video screen that displays the images on a color TV. The endoscope not only allows diagnosis of gastrointestinal (GI) disease but treatment as well. Current endoscopes are derived from a primitive system created in 1806-a tiny tube with a mirror and a wax candle. Although crude, this early instrument allowed a first view into a living body. The GI endoscopy procedure may be performed in either an outpatient or inpatient setting. Through the endoscope, a doctor can evaluate several problems, such as ulcers or muscle spasms."

The guideline was developed by the AGA’s Clinical Practice Guidelines Committee and approved by the AGA Governing Board. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is commonly performed in the evaluation of patients with dyspepsia. The primary value of diagnostic EGD is the ability to obtain a tissue diagnosis of potentially symptom-producing lesions. In many cases, however, biopsies are obtained of mucosa without an obvious, anticipated pathologic or symptomatic correlate, such as either normal-appearing or nonspecifically abnormal tissue. Currently, there are no clinical standards or guidelines for the performance of such biopsies of normal-appearing mucosa. As a result, there is likely wide practice variation in whether or not such biopsies of normal-appearing mucosa are obtained. Additionally, how the results of such biopsies affect management is poorly understood. At the same time, although endoscopic biopsy itself is generally associated with a negligible rate of complications, it substantially increases the cost of the procedure by incurring a higher procedural fee and the attendant specimen processing and interpretation fees. The purpose of the current guideline is to establish evidence-based practicing standards for the performance of biopsies of normal-appearing mucosa in the upper gastrointestinal tract."

He or she inserts it into the mouth, down the throat, and into the esophagus. The doctor views the images on a screen to look for tumors or other health problems.

"text": "EGD (Esophagogastroduodenoscopy)EGD (esophagogastroduodenoscopy) is a minimally-invasive procedure used to examine the upper part of the digestive track including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. A thin, flexible tube outfitted with a small camera is inserted down the patient’s throat and through the upper digestive track, transmitting a clear view of the relevant digestive organs to a nearby monitor. If needed, small tissue samples may be extracted for biopsy. Still photos can also be taken for further examination and diagnosis. This test is commonly used to investigate potential causes of upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, dysphagia (swallowing difficulties), abdominal pain, and chronic heartburn. EGD can detect the presence of ulcers, inflammation, tumors, or other abnormalities along the upper GI track. EGD is also a therapeutic tool useful for removing polyps, treating ulcers, controlling upper GI bleeding, or dilating (stretching out) narrowed areas along the digestive track. Complications of the procedure are generally limited to perforation (a puncture or small hole) or bleeding if a biopsy is performed, both of which are very rare. Reaction to the sedatives or medication used is also a possibility, so it is important to discuss your prior medical history with your doctor. What to Expect In order to prepare for this test, you will most likely need to fast overnight (six to 12 hours) in order to empty your stomach."

We refer also to “upset stomach” or “ indigestion ”. Gastritis, as indicated by the inflammation and damage to the stomach lining. However, strictly speaking, gastritis is a formal medical term for a diagnosis made by a pathologist when evidence of inflammation and damage to the stomach lining is seen in a biopsy specimen taken during an upper endoscopy. And it may sound odd to say, but in the true use of the term, \"\"gastritis\"\" —at least the chronic type (see below) — usually does not cause episodes of indigestion. There are two types of gastritis, acute and chronic. Definitionsacute — (a) characterized by sharpness or severity; (b) having a sudden onset, sharp rise, and short course; (c) lasting a short timechronic — marked by long duration, by frequent recurrence over a long time, and often by slowly progressing seriousness What is the Gastric Mucosa? The stomach has an internal lining, or mucous membrane, called the gastric mucosa. The mucosa must create hydrochloric acid to break down food, but also protect itself from the acidic contents that it creates."

If this was done as an outpatient procedure, you will remain in the clinic area for about one hour. If a procedure was done that requires more observation, you may stay in the hospital overnight. During this time, you may feel slightly bloated from the air that was placed in your stomach during the examination. Your throat may also feel numb and slightly sore.

Nonetheless, findings such as excess fluid or poor motion of the gut during endoscopy can be suggestive of disorders of function. Irritable bowel syndrome and functional dyspepsia are not diagnosed with EGD, but EGD may be helpful in excluding other diseases that mimic these common disorders. Procedure [ edit]The tip of the endoscope should be lubricated and checked for critical functions including: tip angulations, air and water suction, and image quality.

An esophago-gastro-duodenoscopy (EGD) is a procedure that allows your physician to examine the lining of the upper part of your gastrointestinal tract, including the esophagus, stomach and the duodenum (the beginning part of your small intestines). Your doctor will use a thin, flexible tube called an endoscope, which has its own lens and light source, and will view the images on a video monitor to look for inflammation, bleeding ulcers or tumors. There are different types of EGD procedures that are used for different reasons to provide a better look at your upper gastrointestinal tract, including: EGD with esophageal dilation in which your doctor dilates, or stretches, the narrow part of your esophagus to get a better look at the lining. Dilation is indicated when there is a blockage or stricture in the esophagus usually caused by tumors, acid reflux, ingestion of harmful agents, or the inability of food to move down the esophagus properly. In order to fix this, your doctor will pass a tapered dilating instrument through your mouth and guide it into the esophagus. This instrument will open the narrowing in the esophagus.

"text": "Open Slideshow In case you're new here, you may not yet have noticed: I love eggs. For breakfast or dinner; scrambled, hardboiled, fried, or poached. I don't like to play favorites, but baking them in individual ramekins until the whites are barely set and the yolks reach that creamy, pudding-like consistency may, perhaps, be my egg de resistance. It's so easy and has an air of fancy that makes a weekend breakfast feel extra special. Here's how to do it. Cooking baked eggs (also called eggs en cocotte or shirred eggs) is a pretty darn straightforward process. There aren't many tricks or secrets here, which is handy when you're groggy first thing in the morning. I like to cook them in a hot water bath. This might seem a bit fussy, but it helps to gently cook the eggs all the way through. You can also make plain baked eggs, or you can layer a spoonful of something tasty in the bottom of the ramekin."

Shirred eggs are considered a simple and reliable dish that can be easily varied and expanded upon. An alternative way of cooking is to crack the eggs into individual ramekins, and cook them in a water bath, creating the French dish oeufs en cocotte. Description [ edit]Shirred eggs are eggs that have been baked in a gratin dish with a flat bottom. [ 1] Traditionally they have been cooked in a dish called a shirrer, from which the dish gets its name, [2] but the name now applies regardless of the type of dish in which they are baked. They differ from eggs en cocotte, which are baked in a ramekin sitting in a bain-marie, or water bath. [ 1] Shirred eggs can be served at breakfast, [3] brunch, lunch, [4] [5] or any other time of day. They are typically baked simply with butter until the whites have set and the yolks are thickened, and are usually served in the dish in which they were baked. [ 6]Variations on the recipe include adding breadcrumbs or cheese to the top of the eggs to create a crust, or garnishing with herbs such as tarragon. [ 1] Adding a protein such as fish to the dish has also been suggested by chefs to round it out sufficiently to make it suitable as a dinner-time option. ["

It is probably in her honor that Chanel is used as a female given name (mush like Armani or Gianni). The French got the word “chanel” from the Latin “canalis” meaning “water pipe” in reference to a water channel or canal. As a female forename Chanel has been used mostly by Americans with a tip of the hat to Coco Chanel since the 1970s. But it is also used occasionally in England, the Netherlands, Canada and Australia. Popularity of the Name Chanel Chanel first appeared on the American naming charts in 1973 which closely corresponded with the year Coco Chanel passed away (1971). Usage of the name grew in popularity until Chanel reached her peak on the charts at position #382 in 1991. Since the early 90s, however, Chanel has reversed her course on the charts and is less popular today than she once was. In fact, between 2002 and 2003 the name was used so rarely she fell off the charts. Although Chanel has returned to the charts today, her levels of usage are quite low."

"text": "\"Scrambled Eggs – Omelets Pin Share 1 Tweet Stumble Yum Email Making Perfect Scrambled Eggs and Omelets“There are few things as magnificent as scrambled eggs, pure and simple, perfectly cooked and perfectly seasoned.” – James Beard, from his book, Beard on Food. Perfect Scrambled Eggs: Scrambled eggs make a delicious and quick meal, but there is some simple science to getting them just right. The secret to successfully scrambling eggs is slow cooking (you need low, gentle heat). Beating the eggs: The American Egg Board describes well-beaten eggs as “frothy and evenly colored.” This generally takes about 20 to 35 seconds of beating – do not over beat. You want to get them to a uniform color and texture with minimal amounts egg white showing. A fork works as well as a wire whisk but requires a slight bit more time and more energy. Use a bowl that is deep enough to support vigorous whisking. Do NOT add salt yet, as the salt will cause the eggs to toughen."

Egg yolks are a great source of folate & Vitamin B12. It is high in cholesterol, but cholesterol is not completely harmful. Does that mean you should consume them in large quantities? No. So, basically, for those who don't workout at all should not consume more egg yolks. Whilest those who workout, especially, high intensity workouts, can consume them in great amounts."

"text": "DEFINITION OF PATE AND TERRINESDEFINITION OF PATE AND TERRINESPATEPATE This word is used in three ways in French: Pate, pate en terrine and pate en croilte. In France the word pate on its own should, strictly speaking, be applied only to a dish consisting of a pastry case (shell) filled with meat fish, vegetable or fruit, which is baked in the oven and served hot or cold. The best English translation of this word is ‘pie’, although many of these dishes are much richer and more elaborate than the sort of pie usually eaten in Britain and the United States and are often prepared in moulds rather than pie dishes. Pate en terrine is a meat, game or fish preparation put into a dish (terrine) lined with bacon, cooked in the oven and always served cold. The correct French abbreviation of this is terrine, but in common usage the French also call it pate. The English have adopted both names. Pate en croute is a rich meat, game or fish mixture cooked in a pastry crust and served hot or cold. Pate was known to the Romans, who used to make it chiefly with pork but also used all types of marinated spiced ingredients (especially birds’ tongues). In the middle ages there were numerous recipes for patisseries (meats cooked in pastry) made with pork, poultry, eel, burbot, carp, sturgeon, cod, venison, capon and sheep’s tongues. Throughout the centuries, pates have been dedicated to famous people: some examples are pate a la mazarine (in honour of cardinal mazarine), pate a la cardinale and pate a la reine."

Contents [ show]Biography Vuon is taken out by Kale when he attempts to restrain her with his Justice Whip while she is in her Legendary Super Saiyan state, who is then stopped in her tracks with a Power Impact from Jiren . Jiren is then challenged by Goku, but Toppo prevents a confrontation by using his Justice Flash against him and informs Jiren they are retreating temporarily to save their stamina and energy for later, when they will definitely need it, sending a group of five other Pride Troopers to deal with Goku in their stead. These five, comprised of Kahseral, Tupper, Zoiray, Cocotte, and Kettol, encounter Goku, Kale and Caulifla and announce they will dispose of them by Toppo's orders. From then on, Kettol focuses on Caulifla, Cocotte on Kale and Tupper and Zoiray on Goku, while Kahseral oversees the operation, until he is forced into combat by Androids 17 and 18, with 18 heading out to aid Goku while 17 handles the lead Pride Trooper of the quintet. Tupper and Zoiray team up against Goku, with the former weighing him down and the latter spiraling into his torso like a tornado with his Justice Spin, until Android 18 blasts Tupper's back thrice, forcing him to release Goku. After Zoiray deflects the blasts of the Universe 7 warriors, the two Pride Troopers then attempt to perform the Double Pride Spin, with Tupper ramming himself into 18, only for her to toss him to the edge of the ring, with him barely stopping in time, only for the already weakened stage edge, added to his increased body weight, to collapse, eliminating him. Cornered, Zoiray is forced into a hasty retreat. Zoiray contacts Kahseral about what just happened and the general of the Pride Troopers immediately halts his fight with Android 17 to regroup with his teammates. Kettol and Cocotte also briefly stop due to Zoiray's report and, per Kahseral's orders, Cocotte creates a dimensional barrier around them and the Universe 6 female Saiyans to prevent outside interference from Goku and the Androids."

Fragrant and tangy, it has a hard, grainy texture and a buttery yellow colour. Once tasted, it's hard to resist the delicious piquant taste and crumbly texture of parmesan. There are countless ways to savour the flavour. Parmesan, or Parmigiano-Reggiano to give it its proper name, is one of those magical flavour-enhancing ingredients. A few curls of finely shaved parmesan, for example, make a pear and fennel salad taste irresistible, just as a chunk of parmesan rind transforms a slow-simmered minestrone into a gorgeous savoury meal. The secret of parmesan's intense flavour lies in the fact that it's made with fragrant unpasteurised milk and that the cheese is carefully matured over a long period. The cheeses are matured for between 18 and 48 months, depending on the kind of cheese and the producer. The result is a hard, honey-coloured cheese with a crumbly, almost crystalline texture.

"text": "Quora User, Professional musician for many years Answered Jul 29, 2016 · Author has 301 answers and 284.2k answer views What matters is that your frequencies don’t clash with the other instruments. If you have a guitar player that’s getting ultra low frequencies from his/her tuning, then you either want to go lower or higher. Try not to be in the same part of the frequency spectrum as the other instruments. Take a symphony orchestra for example. All those instruments are made for different parts of the frequency spectrum so that you can hear them clearly. The same thing goes for small bands (and when recording). If some of the instruments are competing for the same frequencies, you’re going to get phase cancellations and muddiness. For metal type music and low tuning guitar players and deep bass drums, the bass player struggles with finding the right frequency. A lot of the time a low B or C just doesn’t cut it. Surprisingly, it’s generally best for the bass player to be more of a mid-range instrument in that case."

"text": "Stringed instrument, any musical instrument that produces sound by the vibration of stretched strings, which may be made of vegetable fibre, metal, animal gut, silk, or artificial materials such as plastic or nylon. In nearly all stringed instruments the sound of the vibrating string is amplified by the use of a resonating chamber or soundboard. The string may be struck, plucked, rubbed (bowed), or, occasionally, blown (by the wind); in each case the effect is to displace the string from its normal position of rest and to cause it to vibrate in complex patterns.koto A Japanese musician plucking the strings of a koto with the right hand to generate a pitch and pressing the strings with the left hand to alter the tone. © Feng Yu/Fotolia Because most stringed instruments are made from wood or other easily perishable materials, their history before written documentation is almost unknown, and contemporary knowledge of “early” instruments is limited to the ancient cultures of East Asia and South Asia, the Mediterranean, Egypt, and Mesopotamia; but even for these places historians must depend largely on iconographic (pictorial) sources rather than surviving specimens. Stringed instruments seem to have spread rapidly from one society to another across the length and breadth of Eurasia by means of great population shifts, invasions and counterinvasions, trade, and, presumably, sheer cultural curiosity. In the Middle Ages the Crusades (late 11th through the late 13th century) stimulated Europe to adopt a whole set of new instruments; similarly, the Chinese adopted many new instruments from their Central Asian neighbours as Buddhism spread eastward and as the Han Chinese expanded their influence across the region (roughly, the 3rd century bce to the 10th century ce ). Indeed, the only world area that did not echo to the sound of strings was the pre-Columbian Americas. No system of classification can adequately categorize the interactions of natural material, craftsmanship, and exuberant imagination that produced an endless variety of stringed instruments. In the West the most widely accepted system of classification is that developed by E. M. von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs, a method based on the type of material that is set into vibration to produce the original sound. Thus, stringed instruments are identified as chordophones —that is to say, instruments in which the sound is produced by the vibration of chords, or strings."

"text": "Scale length, fret positioning, tuning and intonation. In my previous article I focused on the structure and materials used in building guitar necks. This time we’ll take a look at scale length, fret spacing, tuning, intonation and how the neck dimensions relate to tuning. Scale length Scale length is one of the basic measurements that determines the size or scale of a stringed instrument and therefore the length of the neck. On fretted instruments this is a design value, used as the starting point for calculating fret positions. Although it is often described as being the vibrating length of the strings this isn’t really true, since string lengths are always slightly longer than the scale length to allow for intonation compensation (see the section on intonation compensation). The most accurate way to determine the scale length of a (conventionally fretted) guitar is to measure from the inside face of the nut (or the middle of the zero fret if the instrument has one) to the middle of the twelfth fret and then double this measurement. As we will see later, even this isn’t accurate for those very few instruments that have nut compensation. Scale length, instrument pitch, tone and string construction are closely related and early instrument design was constrained by the relatively crude string technology of the time. There is still no fixed standard scale length for steel strung acoustic guitar and it’s not unknown for manufacturers to make the same model of guitar in a choice of scale lengths."

The banjo is a four-, five- or six-stringed instrument with a thin membrane stretched over a frame or cavity as a resonator, called the head. The membrane, or head, is typically made of plastic, although animal skin is still occasionally but rarely used, and the frame is typically circular. Early forms of the instrument were fashioned by Africans in America, adapted from African instruments of similar design.

Historically, the banjo occupied a central place in African American traditional music, before becoming popular in the minstrel shows of the 19th century.

"text": "\"Community Tested How to Set Your Guitar's Intonation Sometimes your guitar will be out of tune even after you tune it, which means your intonation is out. You can tell when your intonation is out if an open string harmonic at the 12th fret (lightly touch string at the 12th fret and pluck it) and the fretted note one octave higher (hold the string down at the 12th fret and pluck it) are not the same. Guitar intonation tuning is making the notes of each fret of a string equal to the chromatic reference pitches, or the natural musical scale temperaments by adjusting string lengths at the saddles. The chromatic musical scale and natural musical scale are similar, so tuning the natural musical scale of the brass instruments is preferred. This makes the twelfth fret note of a string theoretically be about one octave higher than its corresponding open string note pitch, and the seventh fret note octave pitch similar as the corresponding seventh fret harmonic pitch. This process is identical for both bass and guitar. Steps1 Read through the Tips and Warnings at the bottom of this page. There are several facts that you need to know before you perform this process.to Set Your Guitar's Intonation2 Tune your instrument to the tuning you're planning to play in.

"text": "Stevie Ray Vaughan’s Guitar String Gauges Scott Marquart January 8, 2018 Strings In the world of guitar strings, perhaps no one is more influential than Stevie Ray Vaughan. Most rockers in the 60s and 70s played fairly light strings, by today’s standards at least (both Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck were known to play .008 gauge strings, Hendrix played custom 9s and 10s ). When Stevie came around, getting fatter tone than anyone had ever heard from a strat, everything changed. Stevie came into the fold playing .013s, which at the time were pretty much unheard of outside of the jazz guitar world. Electric guitar pickups operate magnetically, so the more magnetic material vibrating above the pickups, the higher the output. Once players got a load of Stevie’s tone, they did everything they could to catch up, and a generation of heavy gauge players was born. By now, SRV’s name is synonymous with super heavy strings, but there are a lot of misconceptions going around about what gauges he actually played, and what he had to do to make them work well on his guitar. Let’s clear a few of these up, shall we?1. Stevie Ray Vaughan didn’t play just one kind of strings Like most guitarists, SRV experimented with different string gauges throughout the course of his career (even going as high as .017s at one point! ), but for the most part, he stuck with a high E of .0132."

Also what chords are in the key that I'm in?1 following 5 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: The guitar, played in all open strings, is tuned to an E minor 7 with a suspension. The E minor notes are E - first and sixth strings, B - second string, and G - third string. The seventh is a D - fourth string, and the suspended fourth is the A - 5th string. If the A were situated above the D (the seventh) it would be an E minor 11th chord and sometimes it is substituted for this function. If you imagine that the A - 5th string, is the root and the E - 6th string, is the fifth, then the chord would be an Asus9 with no third. The A would be A - 5th string, and E 1rst and sixth string. The suspended fourth would be the D - fourth string. The Seventh would be the G - third string, and the ninth would be the B - second string."

There are few things as quintessentially American as the image of a player sitting in a rocking chair on the front porch strumming on a banjo. One of the essential instrumental voices in American bluegrass, country, dixieland jazz, and folk music, the banjo is lots of fun to play, and mastering it can offer a lifetime of satisfaction. Its bright and articulate tone is relatively easy to produce, and the banjo’s percussive rhythms add bounce and drive to many different music styles. In its modern form, a case can be made that the banjo is among the few musical instruments that’s purely American-bred. Artists such as Béla Fleck have taken the banjo far beyond its musical roots by using it in classical, jazz, and fusion contexts. Modern acts including Mumford and Sons, The Carolina Chocolate Drops, and The Avett Brothers have helped rekindle interest in playing banjo among younger players. Where it was once thought of as a strictly hillbilly instrument, the banjo is enjoying newfound popularity today. In this buying guide we’ll walk you through the basics of banjo history, various playing techniques, banjo types and their construction, and the resources that will help you get started playing banjo.

"text": "\"Johnny Shines: The Complete 1989 Living Blues Interview2 Replies Be Sociable, Share!Tweet Long before becoming a force in Chicago blues, Johnny Shines hoboed with Robert Johnson through Depression-era America. They hopped freights, played on street corners, shared rooms and whiskey, and made it as far north as Canada. Johnson, the Mississippi Delta’s most celebrated blues performer, perished in 1938, and for the next half-century, his spirit haunted the music of Johnny Shines. It echoed in his turnarounds, mournful bottleneck slides, impassioned lyrics, and falsetto moans. At clubs, house parties, and other gatherings, Johnny Shines was just as likely to launch into Johnson’s “Crossroads Blues,” “Terraplane Blues,” and “Sweet Home Chicago” as he was his own “Evil-Hearted Woman Blues,” “A Little Tenderness,” and “Evening Sun. ”Raised in Tennessee and Arkansas, Shines took up guitar in 1932, and within three years began his celebrated rambles with Johnson. Shines moved to Chicago in 1941, amplified his guitar, and staked Frost’s Corner as his home turf. He played Tom’s Tavern for many years with pianist Sunnyland Slim, and worked in nearby Robbins, Illinois, with the jazzy Dukes of Swing. His first recordings, four 1946 OKeh sides, remained unissued for a quarter-century. In fact, bad luck seemed to dog Johnny’s recording career the whole time he lived in Chicago."

In Wood’s case, he has specifically cited the music of country bluesmen Blind Willie Mc Tell and Big Bill Broonzy, as well as Chuck Berry. Later, his reference points also included the Beatles, which whom he sought to compete as a member of the Faces. The early focus on Mc Tell and Broonzy, musicians from two generations of country blues, is telling. Wood, who turns 65 on Friday, June 1, has an electric guitar style that is rooted in acoustic playing, evidenced by the prevalent cleanliness of his tone and his rhythm chording. And in addition to Berry and R&B, he was clearly influenced by other styles of American music. Classic country played a role in his stylistic development, too. That’s audible in the way he bends multiple strings to emulate lap and pedal steel tones on round-neck guitar in addition to his steel playing. Nonetheless, that ever-waggling pinkie finger on his barre chords indicates that Berry remains Woody’s main man. Open tunings are also part of Wood’s game."

General Image Theory - Site Search at bottom v -Albert Einstein (1879-1955) developed a theory of the universe based on a 'spacetime continuum', somewhat like Descartes' earlier dead-matter mechanical push universe with its 'space ether'. Gravity was an integral part of Einstein's spacetime-continuum ether, and light and other electromagnetic signals somehow propagated through it at a constant speed - the speed of light. This relativity theory chiefly derived from the relativity of light signals conveying information to human observers and its apparent mathematics, though his theory failed to include any actual electromagnetic action despite Einstein trying in vain for many years to find a way to include it. His theory also never really included any fully defined mechanism for gravitational or any other action despite requiring such, but he never conceded that it was a poor physics and continued flogging his dead horse. Einstein did his science like Descartes, he sat-and-thought and he sold his thinking as being 'thought-experiment' which being based on mathematics was claimed to be logical and so necessarily-right or certain if basically a fiction-physics as 'thought' is basically the opposite of experiment-doing. But Einstein claimed that his theory was both consistent with Newton's physics and disproved Newton's physics, if on a quite wrong textbook view of Newton's physics as being the fake-Newton Cartesian corpuscular push-physics that Newton had disproved and not the Gilbertian action-at-distance signal-response physics that he actually favoured."

Einstein received his doctorate from the University of Zurich for a theoretical dissertation providing a new way of calculating the size of molecules.1905 Brownian Motion In 1827 the botanist Robert Brown observed under the microscope the movement or motion of plant spores floating in water and moving about randomly all the time. The explanation for this was already thought to be the random motion of molecules \"\"hitting\"\" the spores. But the first satisfactory theoretical treatment of the Brownian motion was made by Albert Einstein in 1905. Einstein's theory enabled significant statistical predictions about the motion of particles that are randomly distributed in a fluid. These predictions were later confirmed by experiment.1905 Photoelectric Effect It was known that when light was shone on certain substances, the substances gave out electrons, but that only the number of electrons emitted, and not their energy, was increased when the strength of the light was increased. According to classical theory, when light, thought to be composed of waves, strikes substances, the energy of the liberated electrons ought to be proportional to the intensity of light. In other words, the energy emitted by the irradiated substance is changing in a discrete quantities rather than in a continuous manner. Einstein proposed that under certain circumstances light can be considered as consisting of particles, but he also hypothesized that the energy carried by any light particle, called a photon, is proportional to the frequency of the radiation. This proposal, that the energy contained within a light beam is transferred in individual units, or quanta, contradicted a hundred-year-old tradition of considering light energy a manifestation of a continuous processes or of its wave nature."

"text": "Only Human A Blog by Virginia Hughes The Tragic Story of How Einstein’s Brain Was Stolen and Wasn’t Even Special Posted Mon, 04/21/2014My headline may be a bit misleading. Albert Einstein, the Nobel prize-winning physicist who gave the world the theory of relativity, E = mc 2, and the law of the photoelectric effect, obviously had a special brain. So special that when he died in Princeton Hospital, on April 18, 1955, the pathologist on call, Thomas Harvey, stole it. Einstein didn’t want his brain or body to be studied; he didn’t want to be worshipped. “ He had left behind specific instructions regarding his remains: cremate them, and scatter the ashes secretly in order to discourage idolaters,” writes Brian Burrell in his 2005 book, Postcards from the Brain Museum. But Harvey took the brain anyway, without permission from Einstein or his family. “ When the fact came to light a few days later, Harvey managed to solicit a reluctant and retroactive blessing from Einstein’s son, Hans Albert, with the now-familiar stipulation that any investigation would be conducted solely in the interest of science,” Burrell writes. Harvey soon lost his job at the Princeton hospital and took the brain to Philadelphia, where it was carved into 240 pieces and preserved in celloidin, a hard and rubbery form of cellulose. He divvied up the pieces into two jars and stored them in his basement. Just when you think this story can’t get any weirder, it does."

"text": "\"Science & Mathematics Physics What is Difference Between Albert Einstein Gravity and Newton Gravity ? please explain me in most simple manner i never get albert einstein gravity i dont get how space,time are a FABRIC ? 1 following 8 answers Answers Relevance Rating Newest Oldest Best Answer: DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EINSTEIN & NEWTONS GRAVITY VIEWS Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity (theory of gravity) is different from Newton's view of gravity because Einstein calculated the speed of light which is the cosmic speed limit (nothing in the universe can travel faster than it). Newtons view of gravity as a 'force' was different to Einstein's because of the speed limit the Einstein's discovered. For example as Earth orbits around the sun under the influence of gravity, Newton's theory would say that if the sun was to disappear Earth would run off its orbit instantly, this is different compared to Einstein's theory because Einstein consisted the speed of light which takes around 8 min's to get to Earth. Einstein's theory says that gravity travels at the cosmic speed limit (speed of light), so in Einstein's model of the same example of the sun disappearing, the Earth's orbit would still continue for 8 min's until the gravity 'field' reached Earth. SPACE TIME FABRIC Einstein looked at the universe as 3 dimensions (space) plus 1 (time) in a fabric which can be best related to as the trampoline fabric that you bounce on. If you stand in the middle of the trampoline and have a ball at the edge you being the bigger mass, the ball will roll down toward you; the time for the ball to get to you, is the added dimension (time) This example and the example of the 'difference between Einstein & Newton' Solar system example shows how Einstein developed the space time fabric to show visually how gravity works. Another thing that Einstein theorised was that large bodes (like earth) rotating in this space time fabric would pull the space time fabric with the mass body. This was only a theory until around 2008-2009 I think when the satellite \"\"gravity prob B\"\" (which used 3 of the smoothest gyroscope ever made) sent down data that proved Einstein's theory of the friction between large mass bodes and the space time fabric."

With the discovery of the relativity of simultaneity, space and time were merged in a single continuum in a way similar to that in which the three dimensions of space had previously merged into a single continuum. Physical space was thus extended to a four dimensional space which also included the dimension of time. The four dimensional space of the special theory of relativity is just as rigid and absolute as Newton's space. ( Albert Einstein, 1954)The results of calculation indicate that if matter be distributed uniformly, the universe would necessarily be spherical. ... I must not fail to mention that a theoretical argument can be adduced in favour of the hypothesis of a finite universe. The general theory of relativity teaches that the inertia of a given body is greater as there are more ponderable masses in proximity to it; thus it seems very natural to reduce the total inertia of a body to interactions between it and the other bodies in the universe, as indeed, ever since Newton’s time, gravity has been completely reduced to interaction between bodies. ( Albert Einstein, 1954)Introduction Vortex Theory has become a popular alternative science theory over the past few years. The foundation of Vortex Theory, that Space is a liquid which flows, does not explain what exists but the human naive real world of sense experiences. Vortex Theory does not explain Mach's Principle and how matter interacts with all other matter in the universe, the Lorentz Transformations and Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity."

Answered Jul 5, 2014Originally Answered: What's the difference between special theory of relativity and general theory of relativity? Einstein in his theory of Special Relativity came up with the idea that space and time are not two independent things. This is what is special about this theory. Special relativity basically says that all laws of physics are the same in all inertial frames. The law of gravitation as given by Isaac Newton didn't quite fit into this theory suggested by Einstein. After a lot of thought, Einstein came up with another theory, in 1915, called the General Theory of Relativity. In this theory, Einstein says that the space-time he described in Special Theory of Relativity, which he then considered to be flat, is not flat, but curved."

Einstein theorized that smaller masses travel toward larger masses not because they are \"\"attracted\"\" by a mysterious force, but because the smaller objects travel through space that is warped by the larger object. Physicists illustrate this idea using embedding diagrams. Contrary to appearances, an embedding diagram does not depict the three-dimensional \"\"space\"\" of our everyday experience. Rather it shows how a 2D slice through familiar 3D space is curved downwards when embedded in flattened hyperspace.

His name is taught to elementary school children across the country as a potential role model, and his image is easily recognizable to the majority of our population. “ Einstein” and “genius” have become virtually interchangeable in our society.

This, of course, implements the question, but does not answer it. However, since then, there have been found ways of reformulating Special Relativity, by posing more intuitive relativity axioms, and obtaining the constancy of light speed as a lemma, rather than having started with it as a counterintuitive axiom. This can be done by considering “light (speed)” as a, yes the, “communication” tool (speed) of material particles and their interacting forces, for probing their neighbours and comparing distances and times with them. The communication “protocols” would be light clocks. By comparing a “moving” and a “rest” system of (previously synchronised = identical) light clocks, one would successively observe:time dilation of moving system ( longer to-and-fro light paths perpendicular to motion),length contraction of moving system ( equal times -for the sake of isotropy of time!- of to-and-fro light paths, perpendicular and parallel to motion),different simultaneity in moving system (“broken” simultaneity of its halfway return times)mutuality of these observations! ( Relativity of motion: each system may consider itself at rest and the other moving)AND! constancy of light speed. Which has been the gauging tool for all those observations in the first place.

"text": "\"8.8 Who Invented Relativity? All beginnings are obscure. H. Weyl There have been many theories of relativity throughout history, from the astronomical speculations of Heraclides to the geometry of Euclid to the classical theory of space, time, and dynamics developed by Galileo, Newton and others. Each of these was based on one or more principle of relativity. However, when we refer to the “theory of relativity” today, we usually mean one particular theory of relativity, namely, the body of ideas developed near the beginning of the 20th century and closely identified with the work of Albert Einstein. These ideas are distinguished from previous theories not by relativity itself, but by the way in which relativistically equivalent coordinate systems are related to each other. One of the interesting historical aspects of the modern relativity theory is that, although often regarded as the highly original and even revolutionary contribution of a single individual, almost every idea and formula of the theory had been anticipated by others. For example, Lorentz covariance and the inertia of electromagnetic energy were both (arguably) implicit in Maxwell’s equations. Also, Voigt formally derived the Lorentz transformations in 1887 based on general considerations of the wave equation. In the context of electro-dynamics, Fitzgerald, Larmor, and Lorentz had all, by the 1890s, arrived at the Lorentz transformations – at least for electromagnetism (although they did not understand that these represent the relationships between inertial coordinates)."

Einstein and Maric’s love letters have inspired the short film above, My Little Witch (in Serbian, I believe, with English subtitles) and several critical re-evaluations of Einstein’s life and Maric's influence on his early thought. Some historians have even suggested that Maric---who was also trained in physics---made contributions to Einstein’s early work, a claim hotly disputed and, it seems, poorly substantiated. The letters---written between 1897 and 1903 and only discovered in 1987---reveal a wealth of previously unknown detail about Maric and the marriage. While the controversy over Maric's influence on Einstein's theories raged among academics and viewers of PBS’s controversial documentary, Einstein’s Wife, a scandalous personal item in the letters got much better press. As Einstein and Mileva’s relationship deteriorated, and they attempted to scotch tape it together for the sake of their children, the avuncular pacifist wrote a chilling list of “conditions,” in outline form, that his wife must accept upon his return.

A sculpture representing a duende A duende is a fairy - or goblin -like mythological creature from Iberian, South American, Chamorro and Filipino folklore. The word is often considered to be the Spanish and Portuguese equivalent of the English word sprite or the Japanese word yōkai and is used as an umbrella term for any fairy-like being such as goblins, pixies and elves. The Spanish term originated as a contraction of the phrase dueño de casa or duen de casa, \"\"possessor of a house\"\", and was originally conceptualized as a mischievous spirit inhabiting a house.

Using their talent, they are believed to lure young girls and boys to the forest causing them to lose their way home. Latin America [ edit]Conversely, in some Latin American cultures, duendes are believed to be the helpers of people who get lost in the forest so they could find their way home. In the folklore of the Central American country of Belize, particularly amongst the country's African/ Island Carib -descended Creole and Garifuna populations, duendes are thought of as forest spirits called \"\" Tata Duende \"\" who lack thumbs.

"text": "\"Danny Trejo Highest Rated: 100% Survivors Guide to Prison (2018)Lowest Rated: 0% L. A. Slasher (2015)Birthday: May 16, 1944Birthplace: Echo Park, Los Angeles, California, USAWith his intimidating, tattooed, muscle-bound appearance, character actor Danny Trejo has formed a successful career as the all-purpose hard case over his curious and enduring cinematic career. Beating the odds of repeat offender syndrome after being released from prison, Trejo has risen through the ranks to find himself in high demand as an actor, and has even expanded his talents to include a producer credit to his resumé. His life story is just about as pristine an example of rehabilitation as one could ask for. Raised in the mean streets of East L. A., Trejo spent many of his early years incarcerated in such legendary prisons as Folsom and San Quentin on drug and robbery convictions. Channeling his intense energy into the boxing ring and winning numerous lightweight and welterweight titles, Trejo was released as a new man after completing a life-changing 12-step rehabilitation program to overcome his addictions. Applying the ideas that changed his life in an attempt to help others headed down a similar path, upon release Trejo became involved with numerous rehabilitation and counseling programs. A chance meeting with a young man who asked for his support at a Cocaine Anonymous meeting in 1985 later found the sympathetic ex-con meeting the struggling addict on the set of Runaway Train, and Trejo was quickly offered a role as a convict presumably based on his threatening appearance. Chance piled upon chance found an old prison buddy/screenwriter who remembered Trejo's hard-hitting boxing skills on the same set, and Trejo was then offered a chance to train Eric Roberts for a film, and was eventually offered the role as his opponent in the ring. Following with roles in The Hidden (1987), and later Lock-Up (1989), Marked for Death (1990), Mi Vida Loca (1993), and Heat (1995), Trejo formed an alliance with director Robert Rodriguez with Desperado in 1995, and soon graduated to such bigger-budget films as Con Air (1997) and The Replacement Killers (1998) in the latter 1990s. The Rodriguez-Trejo twosome found the actor taking on the role of Uncle Isadore \"\"Machete\"\" Cortez in the director's 2001 smash hit Spy Kids, and was later cast in both the film's sequel and Rodriguez's Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2002)."

"text": "\"Watch Edit Page Add Review Related Discussion History More Share Film / Once Upon a Time in Mexico Awesome Film Funny Trivia YMMV Create New Once Upon a Time in Mexico is the third film of the Mexico or Mariachi Trilogy, directed by Robert Rodriguez. We open with crooked CIA Agent Sands ( Johnny Depp) seeking the legendary gunman El Mariachi, notable for using a guitar case full of guns as his primary weapon. Throughout the film, El Mariachi's backstory is revealed in a number of flashbacks; prior to the events of this film, his wife Carolina and child were murdered by soldiers of the ruthless Mexican General, Marquez (Gerardo Vigil). General Marquez is working for Barillo ( Willem Dafoe ), a drug cartel kingpin who has plans to assassinate the president of Mexico and assume power. Mariachi agrees to kill Marquez after the President's assassination, as he will gain too much power if he lives. Sands proceeds to recruit a retired FBI agent named Jorge Ramirez (Ruben Blades), whose partner was tortured for two weeks and killed by Barillo years earlier. He unwittingly participates in Sands' plot to overthrow the Mexican government and plans to kill Barillo and his lackeys once they outlive their usefulness. Sands also enlists the services of his ex-girlfriend, AFN Agent Ajedrez ( Eva Mendes ), who is also hunting Barillo. With so many c (r)ooks in the kitchen, it's no surprise that the plan goes completely tits-up. Not to be confused with Once Upon a Time in the West or Once Upon a Time in China, nor is it in any way related to Once Upon a Time in America (except perhaps as a Shout-Out - there's no question of the influence of Sergio Leone 's Spaghetti Westerns on Rodriguez)."

"text": "What is El Niño and what might it mean for Australia? Issued June 2014Australia's weather is influenced by many climate drivers. El Niño and La Niña have perhaps the strongest influence on year-to-year climate variability in Australia. They are a part of a natural cycle known as the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and are associated with a sustained period (many months) of warming (El Niño) or cooling (La Niña) in the central and eastern tropical Pacific. The ENSO cycle loosely operates over timescales from one to eight years. Potential effects of El Niño on Australia include: Reduced rainfall Warmer temperatures Shift in temperature extremes Increased frost risk Reduced tropical cyclone numbers Later monsoon onset Increased fire danger in southeast Australia Decreased alpine snow depths What causes an El Niño? An El Niño occurs when sea surface temperatures in the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean become substantially warmer than average, and this causes a shift in atmospheric circulation. Typically, the equatorial trade winds blow from east to west across the Pacific Ocean. El Niño events are associated with a weakening, or even reversal, of the prevailing trade winds. Warming of ocean temperatures in the central and eastern Pacific causes this area to become more favourable for tropical rainfall and cloud development."
